Emily Gordon / Kumail Nanjiani

from

The Big Sick

 

 

Prompt: Emily gets the hiccups, causing Kumail to laugh every time they try to talk until Kumail gets the hiccups too.

 

A true life happy ending gets the Hollywood treatment in this adorkable dramedy that reminds us that Kumail needs to be cast in EVERYTHING.  Every.  Thing.

 

AO3: No Link cause technically this is RPF.

 

 

And that's it for the evening!  My game plan is to get 10-15 up a day for the rest of the week, so hopefully we can get this wrapped by before the BOFFYS and 2021's Top 25!

I'm also regretful that I forgot about Rick and Evie, would have definitely made my list.

I’m not on my desktop, but when I get back there I’ll re-added this post with the chart. And then obviously at the end of the countdown I will put the full charge together with every movie rightI’m not on my desktop, but when I get back there I’ll re-added this post with the chart.

There is no A03 link for this cause the only fic is hella problematic, and hella explicit, and honestly that feels just so right for this movie.  LOLOL.

 

 

 

Wait, doesn't that describe all A03 smut fics? 

 

P.S. Basic Instinct should have been 69 for obvious reason.

Y'all insane.  That'd be a bloodbath.  (We can discuss it though!!  Maybe November Premieres!)

 

And no reveals tonight.  Been sick all day and am just gonna call it a day.

[Valonqar]

Get better!⚕️

 

And yes, we can totally discuss TV shipping whenever you are ready.

Seeing Corpse Bride up there, I realized I forgot about Jack Skellington x Sally while compiling my list 😪

 

Maybe it's the Thompson/Grant effect but Elinor x Edward have always been my favorite Austen couple.

[Fancyarcher]

Great list so far, although I wish more people had seen Starman, because that's one heck of a pairing, but hey can't win em all.

SOOOOOOOO...

 

To paraphrase an Elite Wrestler, "Who's ready for Storytime with Cap Bay-Bay."

 

I was preparing for the next batch of posts when I noticed that something about wrong with the upcoming entry.  It said it was on TWO lists, but when  I searched for the two lists (because I was looking for a Tie Breaker Rank to see the order to post them), I only came up with one.  

 

 

I did what any smart person would do in this scenario.  I ran to @Jason, Mr. Captain Spreadsheets himself, and asked him if he could run a quick formula to make sure everything was on the Up and Up.

 

 

No joke.  No joke.  Jason and I were literally on the phone for like an hour, but we figured it out.  It only took him having to write a formula, for the formula to not work because ALL of the data entries were different (the / v & v AND was a nightmare).  Then I had to reformat EVERY entry by hand to make sure all the movies and couples lined up EXACTLY.  And then he ran his formula again, and... there were still issues due to different data entries.  So I got off the phone with him, and I recounted the ENTIRE list manually.  To go BACK on the phone with him, for him to run his formula again, for... there to still be data point difference. Cause apparently we can't spell Philadelphia!  And the formula REALLY didn't like the multiple George and Marys or Marian and Robins.  Freaked right out at that!  Two hours later, we're confident the entire list is now accurate.

 

So, wait!  What the list NOT accurate!??!?!

 

Turns out -- We spent all day staring at a spread sheet to find out that... the list was like 97% accurate.  There was ONLY ONE ship that was ranked in 69 and higher that fell out of range.

 

That was Jo and Laurie from Little Women (2019). 

 

 

I originally counted that as THREE lists.  Well, turns out, SOMEONE likes Amy and Laurie better. It was only Jo and Laurie with TWO lists, and Amy and Laurie with ONE. Another case of shipping wars splitting the movie total.  I will go back tomorrow and edit that into original #70 post, which is where Jo and Laurie landed.

 

I will reveal what list SHOULD have made the Top 69, but didn't when we get to its REAL position on the Countdown. (And TBH, it's an absolute laugh riot.)

 

  

 

When the whole list is completed, I will share the Google Document for you can see both lists, and you can see all of the work.  Trying to be as transparent as possible here.

 

Jason also suggested if we do this again, esp for the TV Ship List, that we move everything to a Google Form.  🤪

 

Meanwhile, I am done staring at spreadsheets for the evening.  Time for to take the sleep meds and watch Drag Race.  We're going to pick back up everything tomorrow!

 

AND I CAN NOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH!  THANK YOU TO JASON.  VOTE FOR HIM IN THE BOFFYS FOR THE MVP!!
