i first watched prisoners only for jake gyllenhaal. not only did it become my 4th favorite film ever for the amazing plot and the insane twists and overall the psychological aspects of it, but i also LOVED keller dover. he reminded me so much of joel miller (my actual irl dad /srs) at first, and as the movie went on i was amazed by how good his actor (hugh jackman) is. so, obviously, hugh became one of my favorite actors, which i desperately needed since i already watched every edward norton film and every jake gyllenhaal film and i was getting bored. i then went on to watch the prestige, mostly because its directed by christopher nolan, my favorite director ever, but hugh (who played a dad again, surprising!!) was so good in it. then i watched the son, only for hugh jackman. i cried. a lot. i never felt so represented by a character as i did with nicholas miller (writing this from a mental hospital btw, thats just how similar we are🥀), which made my familial feelings for hugh (who played nicholas's dad) so much stronger. i like to identify as anna (prisoners) who grew up to be nicholas (the son), which i could go on forever about how the two movies are related for me, but im lazy. anyway, then sleepy (ily) made me watch xmen with him bc hes literally deadpool and he assigned me wolverine. i agreed bc of hugh jackman, although i hate marvel and sci-fi. i hated it. it sucked. when we watched the wolverine together, i literally put the movie on x2 and put slime videos in the corner because of how boring it was (sorry sleepy). we skipped some movies like first class bc hugh didnt have a big enough role there and theres no way i could watch a whole marvel movie for no reason (my original reason was hugh). when we finally finished xmen i did relate to wolverine on some level, maybe because i id with kimiko (the boys) who is partially based off of him, but he was a low kin and i related to other characters (like laura, his daughter) a bit more. me and sleepy are still literally deadpool & wolverine, and he can go fuck himself (hai sleepy). anyway i kept rewatching prisoners and the son bc theyre peak until i was admitted to a mental hospital not by choice BUT theres a tv here with disney+ so i wrote hugh jackman in the search and then watched australia & the greatest showman. australia was pretty good, especially towards the end, and i cant say shit abt the greatest showman bc i hate musicals, sorry. in both of them, hugh played a father figure, which is pretty cool cuz hes literally my dad. thennn me and my roomie started rewatching xmen in the mental hospital but in the right way and ill admit its pretty fun. we also watched xmen97 and even though hugh wasnt there, it was decent. we got a good amount of the patients into xmen and now all we do in the mental hospital is watch xmen (and chiikawa).
this is how keller dover changed my life. shocking. the end.
