Reply to Any love for the tv show The Pretender? by DonutHoles5
Yeah. I liked it back when it aired. It was one of those late 90s/early 2000s sci-fish shows that were pretty formulaic but had some fun twist. And an attractive female main cast member in a position of power.
7 Days had a guy who time travels one week into the past, The Invisible Man had... Um.. the invisible man. John Doe had the guy from Prison Break but as an amnesiac who knows everything (though noticeably half the stuff he says is wrong if you Google it). They all felt pretty similar and all got cancelled before their overarching mystery got solved.

Reply to 1984 and homoeroticism by obrerk
The way I see it is that O'Brien is a standin for the party in 1984 and when he is being praised by Winston it's Winston praising the party.
It's the same way many people under totalitarian regimes sincerely think. Even when the state is torturing and murdering people.
Julia is a standin for escape from that system and freedom. Winston knows he wants it, but beyond very basic feelings can't articulate why.

I see she's going for that Leto II role in the inevitable Dune sequel.

He probably wouldn't do it since it ended up with him having a shipping container filled with Amazon's dollars.
