There’s a quest chain in Divinity Original Sin (2014) that involves a cat named Unsinkable Sam, original name Oscar, that I literally played for the first time over the weekend. I had no idea there was a possible historical basis for the character. Crazy coincidence that this was posted today.
Edit: Damn autocorrect
I rewatched recently as well. I feel like the emotional core of the movie is solid and for me it holds up rather well.
There is some terminology in the dialog that would widely be considered offensive today, but personally I still think it works in the context of the movie. Big surprise, LGBT people are people and they can be as awful to one another as the most bigoted of the straights.
I’m sure the casting choices might be different as well if the movie were to be remade today, but personally I think the trio (and honestly, Terrance Stamp in particular) delivered Oscar-worthy performances. I’d love to know what three straight cis dudes went through to prep for these roles.
Edit: If it is helpful at all, my perspective is that of a 50+ year-old cis baby bi/pan who enjoyed this film very much upon first viewing in the early naughties.
Edit #2: Fixed typo in Edit #1.
Your friend should drive to the nearest college town and select any non-fast food restaurant. Among the staff, they will find one gay and one guy who will sell them weed. Your friend may then choose to unite the gays from each restaurant in a coalition to bring about fully automated luxury communism. (The weed, however, is probably ditch.)
Please ask your friend to hurry.
I’ll try my best to endure said ducking like the idiot man child that I am.
