    i love how in the premiere we get the iconic "you hate me huh? that sounds like the beginning of a love story, not the end of one" and at the end elena says she hates damon 👀 LIKE .....

      And slight *spoiler* to season 5 when Stefan uses the dagger on her to kill her (to get Elena back) and Katherine says "and I guess this is how our love story ends" this call back ugh 😫

  • @aloneinmidnight
    @aloneinmidnight Рік тому +156

    the scene where damon locks katherine in the tomb is SUCH a satisfying end to his arc with her. he is literally and figuratively closing the door on that time of his life. and when you know where he is at mentally now with regards to elena, well... it's just interesting!

    Now that I finished the video I just have to say that Caroline becoming a vampire was like the best thing to ever happen to her, she's such a badass. Also Katherine is such an icon, we really need to talk more about Nina Dobrev's INCREDIBLE acting skills throughout this whole series. Can't wait to get into the later episodes of the season when my favorite character is finally introduced and makes and appearance

    I really appreciate your comment about Tyler and toxic masculinity. I think a lot of people spend so much time hating on toxic masculinity instead of having compassion and asking the question of why they feel they have to be that way in the first place and seeing if there’s something we can do to fix it. Instead of suppressing those people further.

    The struggle that Stefan goes through with blood reminds me less of substance addiction and more of the addiction that comes with eating disorders because he needs blood to survive. and how he acts when he is relapsing where he will lie to everyone about how deep he is in active addiction is similar to behavior when hiding an eating disorder. and like the part about him trying to work on his relationship with it rather than just not drinking blood really made me think because it’s not like with drugs where you can just stop and eventually you can become not addicted, it’s something that he has to live with all the time trying not to give himself over to his craving reminds me of anorexia and constantly having to maintain and work on your relationship with food and work on not slipping back into those habits but also not being able to stop that from effecting you because you need to eat or feed In his case every day to survive.

    Eeeep, the wait is finally over! There's such a good reason why this is my most favourite season (I too, can spit bars on accident in da house, Luke! 😂).Yes, Katrina Petrova aaall day, every day! It's incredible that it took only a bit over 2 months to create such excellent piece of TV: the constant edge-of-your-seat action, the crazy, heartbreaking twists & turns, some of the best character developments of the entire series, peak acting performances & the kind of storytelling that actually still cared about the integrity of the story.
    Can't wait for your next video!

    @sosunusso8440 Рік тому +7

    I always love your TVD deep dives and your right vampire Caroline is the best writing choice for Tvd, Caroline really becomes her own as a vampire and out of all the characters makes the vampire transition the easiest!! But I especially love your ability to to love Damon and understand his complexities, which makes him an interesting character, while also seriously acknowledging and disagreeing with Damons tendency to make toxic, impulsive decisions, especially when he's upset no matter who it hurts, even if it's the people he loves. This is something that sometimes annoys me when people talk about Damon and excuse the more awful stuff that he's done, especially with killing Jere in front of Elena because he was triggered by something that wasn't Elena's fault. Even with Masonand Damon killed him, leaving Tyler to grieve for another person and go through the traumatizing experience of being a werewolf without having that guidance from Mason

    • @sosunusso8440
      @sosunusso8440 Рік тому +1

      And with Katherine and Stephan I see the chemistry that is so obviously there but I find that Katherine's argument is flawed, because even though Stefan did love her without the compulsion it was under a false pretence because he didn't know she was a vampire, and after she told him, she was compelling him to be okay with it and feeding on him without him having any choice/consent at 17 years old. Unlike Damon, who atleast had more say in what happened between them because he was okay with it all. And after Stefan becomes a vampire and realizes what she did to him his love for her died a lot, and it's clear he didn't appreciate how she treated him, even if she "loved" him.

    • @LukeAlexander
      @LukeAlexander  Рік тому +2

    • @LukeAlexander

    25:22 | i feel like a part of Tyler’s anger is the fact that his dad was such an asshole. I mean we saw the way he treated Tyler. He was a horrible father to him. So he was probably struggling with that since he died. Wanting to be sad and mourn but still being angry at the man his dad had been. Thats why hes so sad saying “i hate him” because he did and is probably feeling guilty because now he is dead.

I just wanted to add that the reason Mason able to beat Stefan in that arm wrestle is because it was a full moon, and werewolves are stronger than vampires at that time. At any other time though vampires are stronger 😉
