DOS Ch-263
As Benji left the room to bring in my Royal fans, I finally began to consider the situation seriously. I didn’t know what exactly I expected from them, but one thing was clear: their coming here was a big deal. Everyone was aware of my indirect accusations against the Royal pedophile. It had become the biggest scandal involving the Royal family in recent decades, arguably even bigger than the divorce of Charles and Diana. There had been public outcry across Britain demanding the arrest of Prince…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

A fat man, Vernon Dursley, stood in front of his SUV, which had been packed to the brim with household items. Cardboard boxes were jammed into the boot, with cushions, lamp shades, and plastic-wrapped crockery visible through the back window. A trailer was attached to the back of the car that was filled with larger furniture. “Come on, Petunia, Dudley!” he called out, his voice impatient. Inside the house, Petunia Dursley stood motionless in the front hallway. The walls, once decorated with…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

“So what do you think?” I asked after narrating the entire character background of Black Widow. “It’s an… interesting character for sure,” Scarlett conceded after a few moments. “Honestly, though, I would prefer that movie over .” I frowned slightly. “Why?” She shrugged. “I just have a feeling. And no offence, but most of the female superheroes in comics are hyper-sexualized. I mean, just look at , the lady fights villains in a bra and a miniskirt. If I were offered that…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

(Flashback) Chad Hurley, the CEO of YouTube, looked on nervously as his boss examined the app on the iPhone Chad had just handed him. Technically, Troy wasn’t Chad’s boss because he didn’t hold any position in the company, but when he held more than 70% shares, it made sense that he was treated like a boss. The teenager was far from ordinary. Despite his age, he was the richest self-made teenager in history, and arguably one of the most powerful individuals in the world at that…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

July 2008, New York City, NY, USA “You’ve been oddly quiet ever since ’s premiere,” Scarlett pointed out with a raised eyebrow. “Everything okay?” “Nothing serious, it’s just me being stupid,” I replied. “Do you...believe in fate?” She gave me a confused look. “Fate?” “Yeah,” I nodded. “Like, everything is pre-destined and you will do what’s written for you to do.” She thought about it for a moment before nodding. “I hadn’t given it much thought, but…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

Deborah Ross, The Spectator ★★★★★ " doesn’t just redefine the superhero genre; it obliterates its limits. Christopher Nolan has crafted a dark, complex, and genuinely philosophical blockbuster that lingers long after the credits roll. This is storytelling on an operatic scale, yet grounded in emotional truth. The Joker’s fantastic portrayal elevates the film to perfection." Richard Roeper, Chicago Sun-Times ★★★★ "I’ve seen Jack Nicholson’s interpretation of the Joker, which I…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

“So this is your masterpiece?” Dad asked the moment I reached him, his eyes still gleaming with the afterglow of the screening. “You tell me,” I replied with a shrug, trying to sound casual. “My performance is only as good as the audience thinks.” Before Dad could reply, Mum pulled me into a tight hug, practically squeezing the breath out of me. Her voice was filled with emotion as she said, “It was simply out of this world, son. I haven’t seen this level of performance, especially in…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

Scarlett glanced sideways at her twin brother. Hunter was practically vibrating in his seat, even though the film’s pace had slowed. His eyes were wide, his hands gripping the armrest. “Oh my God! This is so good,” he whispered. “I know it sounds bad, but I love the Joker.” Scarlett gave him a skeptical look. “Don’t you mean you hate him?” Hunter paused to think, then leaned in. “I hate what he does, but I love watching him. Every second he’s on screen, I’m hooked. And when…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

“STOP!” Rachel Dawes, played by Maggie Gyllenhaal, stepped forward to confront the Joker. She was clearly terrified but trying to hold her ground. The Joker turned to her, smiling wider than before, and launched into yet another unsettling monologue. “Do you know how I got these scars? I had a wife once,” he began. “She was beautiful, just like you. She used to tell me I should worry less. Smile more.” He spoke softly at first, recounting how his wife had been scarred by loan sharks,…- 930.1 K • Ongoing

Rod Meyer glanced at the kid sitting beside him, who was visibly trembling, his legs jittering against the floor like he was about to be executed. Rod chuckled softly and turned his attention back to the screen. Warner Bros. had pushed the hype to astronomical levels, but in Rod’s opinion, it was still just a superhero movie. Even a masterful filmmaker like Christopher Nolan couldn’t escape the genre’s inherent limitations. had certainly been a massive leap forward compared to earlier Batman…- 930.1 K • Ongoing
