how do you say this to your extremely famous wife at your brother's movie premiere? how? absolutely no one cared about him being there and he should be thankful his clout chasing ass had her around to even get into photographs
not only do i think challengers should get a bunch of oscars, i think it should get noms it doesn’t even qualify for. best documentary. best foreign film. best animated feature. sky’s the limit
one thing that’s so crazy to me is that (good) actors absolutely know what their face is doing at any given moment so when he does he’s so intentional like what is his fucking problem 😭
patrick being naturally talented at tennis and then simply refusing to ever lock in and staying barely eligible as a pro. how can you not say mother like
it’s so funny that the check in woman shows him art is coming by picking up one of his rackets… the audience doesn’t know the depth of what they mean to each other yet but from her perspective she’s laughing thinking “you beat him when you were kids and now he’s a super star”
Blake Lively jokes about ‘It Ends With Us’ & ‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ vying for the
#1
spot at this weekend’s box-office:
“[I’m in both so] either way I’ll win the weekend… It’s chess. But don’t go see ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ this weekend. F-ck that movie...”

it’s interesting how this scene also plays with the sauna scene. there’s literally guys swinging their dick around in there, making fun of each other (at least of grosu). patrick’s been in locker rooms for a decade while art got big enough to have private rooms
@hijade2madre
I knew all the personal details of my teachers' lives. I'd come in during lunch just to hear them complain about their family, career, gas prices. I heard it all. This lady did nothing wrong.
every time i watch challengers im like yeah im gonna be normal this time and then within the first 5 minutes patrick is getting ready to return and he’s like half squatting and his thighs are like that… what’s his fucking problem
@yonderwinds
i think it’s sort of a pained nostalgia because he instantly thought of what he said to art after they made out in the hotel but of course tashi had left by then so she wouldn’t know. it’s just a little dry haha to himself that wouldn’t make sense to reference aloud to her

@capy_clara
not only does art think pat is bullshitting, he wishes what pat is saying is true. he’s choked up by it and is trying so hard to play it cool. they needed to look each other in the eyes and be fucking real for a second and then kiss
no money, no girlfriend, barely qualifying for tournaments, sleeping in his 20 year old car, actively radiating body odor, busted up fingers, rich parents who dgaf about him, decade long yearning for two people who got together after cutting him out
like she saw him crush art and do tweeners (and presumably at least heard, if not saw, that they won doubles together) so in her head, she must be aware of some of the closeness that they had and her pure reaction is “hey your little friend is coming too! remember him?” 😁 hahaha
@lovelordi
well not all throuple truthers are team patrick but most/all team patrick are throuple truthers. team art usually thinks he’s this straight arrow who’s been wronged by patashi cheating / just blinded by how hot blonde mike is
@yonderwinds
i think it might be why art is so defensive in the sauna because he remembers what challenger locker room talk is like. it might be extra devastating to patrick that art was being mean, like they don’t have a relationship that’s much closer than locker room tennis players.
@lovelordi
living in his car, $40 in his bank account, career in the pits, starving, bisexual. he had one shot to get tashi to fuck him with a racquet and he took it.
the curse is the most fuck ass show of all time. it pushed fuckassery to a place we’ve never seen before and it will be the gold standard for all fuck ass shows to come
if there are a million people tweeting about challengers, i am one of them. if there is only one person tweeting about challengers, that’s me. if there are no people tweeting about challengers, then i am not of this world anymore.
there are people that came out of challengers and didn’t read one single ounce of homosexuality. they were like “yeah they kissed but only for the chance to fuck tashi” i’m actually scared because i’m surrounded by these people.
this expression kills me every time … he has this brief moment of “haha nice art still remembers the signal he’s still my buddy” and then he’s filled with so much dread that he went too far he’s truly so scared in this moment
@TOPUPDATERS
now would be a good time to get back into getting all the trench tracks to gold,,, can someone,,, uhh,, give us that streaming numbers update 🥺
Hulu has Alice Rohrwacher’s LE CHIMERA, starring Josh O’Connor and featuring Isabella Rossellini. A funny, mournful movie about grave robbing and grief, it builds to a breathtaking finale. So daring, so assured. O’Connor barely speaks and is transfixing. What a wonder he is.
"he's an athlete" "he doesn't look like an athlete, he looks like a hobo" "a very tall, very handsome hobo" "you're like a dog" *something undecipherable* "look at him, he can't pay for the room —" "should we invite him to stay with us?"
challengers oomfs… if you live in san diego, please message me because i am throwing a challengers themed birthday party next saturday… eye will be making a post party thread for my beloved oomfs who live far away 💚
@HEATHENLlVE
you can stan them and still have a *natural* jealous reaction to this. people save pennies to get tickets to see them, they would do the same if m&g was available, but top specifically said they didn't want that because it made a larger monetary divide between their fans
