Correction. Half of the movie is incredibly Red Pill. The romance half of the movie is incredibly Blue Pill, transitioning into Red Pill through hardship.

From start to finish the movie is about a man and overcoming struggle and being stronger at the end of it because of said struggle. During these struggles he manages to exceed peoples expectations by miles, and even save the lives of fellow countrymen, all while being severely physically (leg braces) and mentally (slow as a peanut) disadvantaged.

From beginning to end the movie is about the evolution of a man who people tell that he is not fit for this world, and him proving them wrong 10 fold. Your kids legs don't work, fuck you they work better than normal kids, youll see. Your kid won't be able to have a normal life, fuck you hes getting a football scholarship and going to serve this country. Saves lives and even meets the damn president himself.

The only blue pill aspect of this movie is on the romance end and that is purely just the typical hardship most guys end up going through, getting worked over by some oneitis because her shit smells like butterflies. Eventually post wall Jenny comes crawling back to him now that he raised his SMV so high. He breaks frame a bit and scares her off, but eventually she learns that he once again rose his SMV and became famous for his running shenanigans.

She has effectively been Alpha Widowed by her own doing and gets in contact with him again. He learns that he knocked her up and has a child. The movie ends with bagging and tagging her. Then him taking care of his own flesh and blood that the harpy left behind when she died.

Mother fucker was red pill to his core, and even did right in raising his own kids. The only problem was he wasn't mentally equipped to understand how shitty women are. Outside of that he was a bad ass, even if he was a little bit retarded.

tl;dr don't let hollywood scare you away from your favorite movie. Just look deeper. The romance wasn't the only part of the movie you should be taking away from it. But there are lessons to be learned even from that part.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck. I guess I didn't give it 100%. I just kinda focused on the relationship part where Jenny basically proves AF BB, or at least that's what I thought

[–]The_BeardedGentleman 2 points3 points4 points 11 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Yeah he definitely struggled on the relationship end, but in the end he won the reproduction game. Even if it was with a crazy bitch, its better than anything I would have imagined him getting. The rest of life though? He smashed that shit like Hulk.

[–]seattleron2 points 11 years ago* [recovered] (2 children) | Copy Link

His actions in life = extremely RP.

His actions with Jenny = BP Omega of the century.

I mean, he married a girl with Aids back in the 80's. Good fucking grief.

[–]catholic_fister 0 points1 point2 points 11 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

This was kinda what I was getting at

[–]seattleron1 point 11 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

His actions in life, while fiction, are a great example of a guy who used his energy to accomplish goals and do great things.

His actions with Jenny though were the epitome of what's wrong with American men.

[–]Brave_Horatius 0 points1 point2 points 11 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

There's not a lot of rp coming out of Hollywood. Even action heroes are generally out of control types driven by emotion. And these are supposed to be our role models/fantasy selves?

[–]Endorsed Contributortepper2 -2 points-1 points0 points 11 years ago (8 children) | Copy Link

This is

  1. A shitty post
  2. A violation of the posting guidelines

[–]catholic_fister 1 point2 points3 points 11 years ago (7 children) | Copy Link

Please explain, I am new and I don't want to break the rules. Any tips on making better posts in the future?

[–]Endorsed Contributortepper2 0 points1 point2 points 11 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Also, examples from fiction are frowned upon, there have been threads removed and bans handed out for this lately.

[–]Endorsed ContributorScholarInRed 0 points1 point2 points 11 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I was going to say this as well, but if you include enough quality content which draws from the example, rather than making the post all about the 'RP media' in question, that's acceptable.

[–]Endorsed ContributorScholarInRed 0 points1 point2 points 11 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

Look at the top of the sidebar for 'Thread Format Requirements'.

As for making a better post, just try harder. Write more than this, I would say at least double, then take the time to edit and cut out the fluff. Make it lean, mean and persuasively written.

This post took 3 minutes to write and the sub deserves more effort than that.

[–]catholic_fister 1 point2 points3 points 11 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

Thanks for the tip. I'll definitely put a lot more effort into it next time.

[–]Endorsed ContributorScholarInRed -1 points0 points1 point 11 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

What are you going to do about this one?

[–]catholic_fister 1 point2 points3 points 11 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Edit it quite a bit. Expand it. Take out the fluff. Summarize and give a lessons learned. I will when I have time this evening, but I can't right now since I'm on my phone and on a field exercise. I only have short amounts of time while we are stopped for breaks.

[–]Endorsed ContributorScholarInRed 0 points1 point2 points 11 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Very well. Good to see you can take corrections on the chin.
