Thank you, for two things:

Explaining the joke.

Letting me know a movie I will avoid.

[–]tinybomb 34 points35 points ago

It's an incredibly moving movie.

[–]daftfag 46 points47 points ago

Yeah, I'm sure there's a lot of momentum involved.

Surprisingly good with some phenomenal acting across the board. Mo'nique playing the abusive mother deserved the Oscar she won for best supporting actress. Trailer

[–]Joymachine 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yes and Mariah Carey is the social worker in this movie, trying to look like a regular person and everything. It is a very sad, pretty damn real kinda movie.

reminder- so did titanic, and it won... proving such awards mean little.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

You are crazy if you think Titanic didn't deserve to get nominated. The direction, costumes, music, art direction, cinematography, visual effects, sound, etc etc were all unbelievably good. The fact that all of them were in the same film make it an obvious nomination.

Golem's catchphrase: Precious.

TL'DR: THE MOVIE IS CALLED PRECIOUS!

[–]Tashre 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Ahhhh... best I could come up with was the joke was he was Gollum and she was huge like a golem. Was really hoping it wasn't that...

I just thought it was a joke about some black people having stupid names. I suppose it kind of still was.

[–]davor70790 -1 points0 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

In case people still don't get it. She is the titular character in a movie called 'Precious.' In lord of the rings Golem pursues the fellowship seeking 'his precious,' the ring to rule them all.

[–]GigaPuddi 1 point2 points ago

Movie is called "Precious".

Golem, the trolly creepy guy out the window, keeps referring to the titular ring as his "precioussssss".

It's the ending of the scene where she murders her sister because of an incredible fixation on a bucket of fried chicken.

[–]TokiBumblebee 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Did she become a robot and develop wheels on the bottom of her feet? Is that why she's making time and a half?

"At first?" Do you mean 2 years ago when this pic was first posted?

[–]wookiesandwich 3 points4 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

or the subsequent 49 times since....reposts are inevitable I guess but at some point it gets frustrating

[–]OMallyRed 1 point2 points ago

There should be a subreddit for reposts.

[–]Schmoopster 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I am sorry for the frustration reposts cause long-time Redditors, but in the meantime as a recent Redditor, I am happy for the opportunity to see them. I understand that people can check their submission against Karma Decay or do a search on Reddit before posting, but if everyone did this us newcomers would be missing out on some fantastic material.

[–]OMallyRed 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Reposts can also be avoided by not submitting links they find on stumble or tumblr.

[–]GigaPuddi 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

That would also avoid half the good posts out there. Chill out, smoke a cigar, laugh heartily at your self-importance for being here long enough to complain about reposts. Then let the rest of us enjoy a website that is designed to allow reposts to do well so long as enough people still find them funny.

Explanation for those who still don't get it:

She's in a movie called "Precious". Gollum's catchphrase is "My Precious".
