I don't see a connection. Fair points, but I'd argue Dani's arc is similar in the sense that she starts as an innocuous girl facing isolation and (low-key) bullying, then grows into a destructive force. While she doesn't have superpowers, the cult acts as an extension of her will and enables her to get revenge. --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ ... Copied to Clipboard!

I'm sure there's some statistically better way to do this, but what I did was take the absolute value of my ranking for a film and subtract out another person's ranking for the same film. I then summed all of these to get a total difference value for all films on the list. This at least gives me some numeric value that corresponds to how different our lists were, even if they weren't perfect. Here are the people I was closest to and the total value of our differences: Tom Nook - 330 Snake5s - 294 jcgamer - 270 Karo - 266 red13n - 262 Tangy - 262 thesmark - 248 plasma - 246 Inviso - 242 rockus - 242 fortybelowsummer - 238 Johnbobb - 226 FFD - 218 Lightning Strikes - 200 TomNook is my RATING RIVAL (as I suspect he will be for most people actually because of how high his outlier score was). My BFF was not FFD as I guessed (he was second) but Lightning Strikes! Lighting and I only had 6 movies where our total difference was over 10! Get Out - 13 (4 vs 17 for me) Happy Death Day - 14 (23 vs 9 for me) Us - 15 (8 vs 23 for me) Ready or Not - 16 (19 vs 3 for me) Lighthouse - 22 (2 vs 24 for me) Babadook - 26 (1 vs 27 for me) A couple of huge ones in there (Lighthouse and Babadook) but the rest of our ranking were shockingly close so he still winds up BFFs on my end. I didn't check for everyone else so I dunno who is everyone else's BFFs yet. --- Moops? "I thought you were making up diseases? That's spontaneous dental hydroplosion." ... Copied to Clipboard!
