It’s meant to be a cop out! It’s meant to cheapen the story. That’s the point! If he died it would have been a story that was powerful and evoked all of this feeling, but she couldn’t do it to him so she sacrificed the quality of the story to give him a happy ending. It’s supposed to make the audience feel kinda cheated.

Top 5 for me.

That’s kinda the point. Rather than go with the ending that was right for the story she sacrificed the right ending for happiness. It’s fucking beautiful. I love it so much.

Would you like a can of beans in these trying times?

Seems like you haven’t been to Lemmit
