Saltburn is a film that aimed at some unattained heights, but got lost in its own track. My major complaints against the film are only two; 1. After the death of Felix, Oliver's acceptance in the mansion was, well, not well logically supported. For as cunning as the rich family seemed initially, taking advantages of those who got dazzled by the presence of extreme wealth, they turn pretty blind and stupid, much too fast for most audience to accept it. 2. Oliver's "I loved him so much that I began to hate him" - I've both seen and read better representation of that particular kind of twisted emotion. To sum up, the film went south way too rapidly to emotionally comprehend; especially after Felix was found dead. P.S. Just a thought; would this film work better if it was an eight hours or so long series, instead of a two hours film? Maybe with more time at hand, the creator could have shown more empathy for her characters?

Hey, I'm new into the story and boy-oh-boy, I'm IN! 🤩

Why would you say that!!! Even if Watkins goes behind the bars, you two can still stay married and commited to eachother. But please, I beg you, don't say that those monsters will never get caught. And by monsters I mean both the organisers and clients of that hellish club.

Firstly, hats off to @Laura S. Fox for her incredible dialogue writing skills; especially in a multi-characters scenes. Maintaining the distinguishable nature of all three voices in the interrogation room i.e. cocky Jackie, strictly-business Hudson and bastard Gavin, must have been damn hard! And I like Gavin's character; he talks sh*t but he is very efficient and reliable. Actually when you think about it, Gavin sounds like @J.El! Also, it seems my instincts on Jackie wasn't too off the mark. He is a good old oblivion chap in a wrong place. And I feel terrible for Henry and rest of those helpless kids. I liked it how the author hinted at the heinous crimes and showed us the unfortunate fates of those young souls without making the chapter another basic blood and gore. And then there is our Otis. Just imagine a child, sitting in a locked room and for months, trying to perfect his skill to go outside of those brutal confinements. I don't know how I would finally feel for Otis's mother but I know that if someone (including Hudson) as much as sneezes in Otis's direction, I will be out there, claiming their lives; yes, this much I know!

A very happy new year everybody! 🥳 But also yikes, I'm late!!! So, our new year starts with taking-it-in and I meant Otis! 🤭 "You’re doing wonderful things with everything you learn." That's a beautiful thing to say to anyone. And here we go! 😑 Hudson is about to see his relationship with Otis to be a counterproductive obsession. This is bad, this is really bad! Otis will be hurt once more, if that happens. For someone like Otis, a heartbreak can be detrimental. I don't know but Jackie doesn't seem like a villian to me. If he was - a true evil villain, he wouldn't go for a head-on collision with Hudson saying "are you police or something?"!!!! Things are about to get messy. And after his return, Jasper will seek more help from Hudson, jeopardizing his let's-take-things-easy strategy. ☹️ P.S.1. I don't wanna end my first comment of 2024 with a sad face. So here's the thing; with @Laura S. Fox as the show runner, a HEA if guaranteed. 😃 P.S.2. @J.El, could you please talk to your lover Watkins and ask him to stop doing these horrendous crimes?!!

A quick remark: I've finally watched Saltburn and we'll.... DISAPPOINTED!!! The first 30 minutes were giving me so much boost but then it went into an unexpected crash-and-burn mode! As @W_L said, "shallow expression of desire and greed without empathy" - didn't do anything for me. Even the carefully crafted erotic scenes somehow felt repulsive!

Oh what a perfect ending ❤️ I love the fact that Kane & Louise and Ray & Hannah and Dex & Zoey are also getting hitched 🤗 By the way, can't we have a John spin off whereby his embargo of Xpress and all the courage, struggles and harrowing efforts that it took are revealed? Please @Laura S. Fox🙏 Ayways, it pains me a lot to bid my good byes to this masterfully crafted, warm, funny, sexy, romantic and in the core of it all, a youthful story.💔 Farewell Sunny Hills, you've been truly loved by us all. And to all my friends in the comments, I had a blast, nah scratch that, I had blasts making silly jokes every other day.

Let me cry first and then I'll start reading the final chapter 😭😭😭😭😭 I love you Sunny Hills, I love all of you! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ (except for Connor and his Shitheads) Now, Rusty is mine and forever. Together we will embark on the journey of everlasting love and passion. I've said what I had to say, now I'll go and read the ending 😭 Why doesn't it have to end?!!

Meanwhile, @J.El thinking of Watkins.....

If Otis wiggles his ass infront of Jackie.... then I'm afraid but Hudson will cut Jackie's two butt-cheeks into four!!!

He means Rusty. @J.El, start eating a few almonds every morning; it's good for your waning memory.

"Otis wanted to tell him that he was embarrassed, that he couldn’t take it, but it wasn’t what he wanted to say and, for a change, he said nothing and waited for good things to happen to him." - Oh this line is so beautiful! It's perfectly fine Otis, to want good things happening to you. I feel for you lil bro Hudson, my man, you're going in the wrong direction! Otis maybe under experienced but not an imbecile. I agree you are trying to protect him from the world that comes along with you but, you are also denying him explanations which is as good as fooling him for his simplicity. You have a good amount of hint that Otis has a dark past, maybe darker than most of what you've so far witnessed and yet you're, in a way, tricking him! Sorry for being a little too harsh but....all Otis want is to be treated like a grown up man. Plus, you denied him bareback for a false reason. Otis will be severely wounded once gets a wind of what's going on. 😞

I second that 😃

Don't criticize Connor @raven1, or @J.El will take it personally 🙄 I don't understand why @J.El keeps denying his endless love for Connor!! @J.El's shyness baffles me 😟

With @Laura S. Fox behind the writing desk, that's guaranteed 😃

@J.El told me 🙄

Hope this one doesn't disappoint by being just another gore-with-tension 🤞🤞

Exactly my thought!

Oh My Goohohohod!!!!!!! That's what a call a climax 🔥 Oh I'm so very happy! And my Ray of sunshine is back with his honey-sweet Hannah 🤗 And Connor, you disgusting, disgraceful, @J.El - loving two timer!! Finally, we know the true identity of the Xpress - come out, come out John, you did well this time around. Just like Lady Whistledown, we never thought that small, weak, no-friends-nerdy John could run such a mass appealing empire like the Xpress! Ofcourse he had @J.El's support but still.....Never be too quick to judge someone - lesson relearned!

Simply because most people still aren't very progressive about sexual orientations, gender identities and gender roles. So, gay tragedy sells well! Just replying this made me sad!!

I disagree! Hudson wasn't cleaver enough with Jackie. He easily could have told Jackie to stay the f-away from Otis; especially since Watkins already knows about Hudson and Otis's relationship.

Always itching for some mms scandal!!!

Classic @Laura S. Fox for you 😅

"Do you think that recommending a good self-help book to Jackie on how to handle rejection would help?" - Damn, Otis is such a cutie 🤗 Jackie will be real grumpy the next time we see him and might even want to fight with Hudson a little. But I don't know, something tells me that when the time comes, Jackie will prove himself to be a good friend. Like Otis said, not everyone is only good or bad. I like that Otis has some worldly desires, like wall-climbing. I wanna know what his life aspirations are and where he wanna see himself in the future, besides in Hudson's arms. And if Otis hasn't thought that far yet, then Hudson must help him there. I want to see Otis dreaming for bright, big and beautiful life ahead.
