one of the funniest parts of the misery film is when annie waves at paul through the window like “hi pumpkin! 😁” and paul flips her the bird and she’s just like “such a kidder 😆”

Paul Sheldon: Hating having to write "trashy" romance novels, hating his fans over his "trashy" romance novels, and wanting to write more serious, more mature novels.

Me while reading the book who is also a fan of/loves "trashy" romance novels:

the fact that "suck my book" is a real line that is said in the climactic final battle of a stephen king book has me crying on the floor to be honest. SUCK MY BOOK i am never not laughing about this

Annie Wilkes and Paul Sheldon from Misery, their big threes and personality types

Hi there, sweetie! I really hope you like this a lot!

Annie Wilkes' MBTI Type, Big Three and Enneagram Type

MBTI Type: ISFJ [The Defender]

ISFJ types need time alone to re-energize. They are self-sufficient and independent thinkers.

They are very observant and prefer to focus on the details of every situation. They listen to and follow past experience and present understandings.

Guardians prioritize the emotional needs of others. They make decisions based on what feels right, rather than what might make most logical sense.

They also prefer structure and organization, tending to follow rules and processes to an end goal. They are responsible and have a strong work ethic.

Big Three: Scorpio Sun, Pisces Moon and Cancer Rising

Scorpio Sun: Ruled by Mars and Pluto, the Scorpio Sun is known to be intense, mysterious, and ever-evolving. 

Pisces Moon: Pisces Moons are hyper-attuned to the needs and emotions of others. They're likely to predict what's on your mind before you even say it.

Cancer Rising: Cancer ascendants tend to wear their hearts on their sleeves and take care of those they love.

Enneagram Type: 2w1 [The Companion]

Basic Fear: Enneagram type two-wing-ones fear being unwanted by those they love. They tend to take on a caretaker role to serve others and avoid feelings of insecurity.

Basic Desire: They desire love and acceptance above all else. They are service-oriented and humble, seeking to help better the lives of those in their community.

Companions tend to stifle and repress their negative emotions and personal desires. They may feel internally conflicted as they work to meet everyone else’s needs but their own.

Paul Sheldon's MBTI Type, Big Three and Enneagram Type

MBTI Type: ISTP [The Virtuoso]

Virtuosos are generally more reserved and prefer being alone. They are self-sufficient and independent thinkers.

They are very observant and focus on the details of a situation, trusting facts and making decisions based on the here-and-now.

ISTP types favor logic and reason over emotional influences. They base their decisions on what makes sense.

They are also spontaneous and prefer keeping their options open. Virtuosos are often more adaptable and less aware of time.

Big Three: Libra Sun, Virgo Moon and Capricorn Rising

Libra Sun: Libra is ruled by the airy part of Venus, making them bon vivants, critical, and artistic — as well as forever stylish.

Virgo Moon: Virgo Moons use their calm nature to gain deep clarity on matters, filtering questions through their kind, but reasonable, lens.

Capricorn Rising: Capricorn ascendants are known for their efforts and diligence when it comes to attaining success and prosperity. 

Enneagram Type: 9w8 [The Advisor]

Basic Fear: Nine wing eights are afraid of being separated from the world. They avoid this by preventing conflict; however, their eight wing also encourages them to be assertive, which can create an internal tension.

Basic Desire: Their basic desire is to be internally balanced. They seek to be at peace with themselves and others.

Advisors defend themselves by numbing their negative emotions through routine and repetitive patterns. They avoid facing their own internal struggles by distracting themselves in this way.

Misery and the Black phone- experts in suspense

I don’t know about y’all but these movies stress me the hell out and I LOVE it. It’s hard to scare me most of the time, I can watch gore all day (really loud noises get to me but it never lasts long) but these two? Yea. I’m bunched up in my seat, my hands glued to the side of my face and holding my breath. It leaves me so tense with small moments of relief that I keep going back for more. These movies are master classes in suspense, thrill and a bit of horror.

Now, I just finished reading Misery lately and it is the well sung tale of “the book is Better” however the 1990 adaptation of the 1987 story is pretty damn accurate in nearly every aspect. I appreciate it. However this being said I do have to lean on the side of Misery being much more suspenseful? It freaks me out a whole bunch more- by this I mean that it fills me with the same dread each time I rewatch. Where as once knowing how the black phone goes, it’s slightly less suspenseful. There’s a sense of security that the other just doesn’t have.

The Grabber and Annie Wilkes presence-

Now the two are similar in the way it’s an abduction story with a crazed person who has a deep wanting of acceptance/passion but is also… you know totally insane. With the  protagonist locked away in some room or their house. It’s also said that they are the producer of the stress in both situation. They could be anywhere… around any corner… in any shadow. Any second that door will open and who knows what they’ll do to you when it does. Maybe they’ll be nice… or maybe they’re mad and cruel and self righteous. Or they just wanted to look at you. (They both have a thing for the creep ass staring in thing).

Now Annie is actually outright stated to be manic depressive (old term for bipolar) but I am leaning to Albert having a similar issue? They share a lot of similar behavior such as the mood swings being so drastic it’s like their different people (the grabber going so far to even say so). Both swing from totally child like to total murder mode with the snap of their fingers- however the grabber appears to have a whole lot more control over himself. But I like that they never pin a Illness or give a explanation. We don’t need one. I like the way nothing is explained about him, it’s implied he had a bad childhood but it’s never used as an excuse. Never explaining a thing about him makes him freakier. It’s scary because he’s just … like that. Where as with Annie it gets freakier the more we learn about her past.

Never knowing vs knowing-

Something something. The fear of the unknown.

With the grabber the main fear component, for me at least. Was never knowing when he was going to come in. Never knowing if Finney was going to be safe or not. I kept my eyes on the basement door CONSTANTLY when I first watched it. I freaked when ever finney started an escape attempt because I expected the door to open at any moment- whenever he makes a bit of progress that will be when the grabber comes In and punish him for the escape attempt! This is what I meant by it losing that fear upon rewatching as you know he won’t come. You know he’s tied up with his brother and playing the waiting game the rest of the time… there is a very thin line of safety that Finney rests upon.

With Annie it’s that you KNOW she’s coming. She knows all. Sure she’ll be gone for days or hours at a time but whatever small move Paul makes, even if he’s sure to cover his tracks- she’ll notice and punish him for it. She comes like clock work, when not having a episode, and the fear is that you never truly know what mood she is in until she Is inside the room.

You never know when the grabber is coming in and you always know Annie is coming back

Anyways this was my total love letter to these two movies, mainly their villains. Honestly still hold the headcannon they take place in the same universe (despite black phone not being Stephan king) after all both are in Colorado and sidewinder isn’t to far from Denver… though misery takes place years later

[radykalny-feminizm]

I started reading Misery by Stephen King and it's good so far, it's very refreshing that for once, it's a woman who's torturing a man, not the other way around.

Also if the roles were reversed the victim would be raped in less than 24 hours from kidnappning, which is obviously not the case here, as women are not as vile as men.

MISERY

“And don't even think about anybody coming for you. Not the doctors, not your agent, not your family. 'Cause I never called them. Nobody knows you're here. And you better hope nothing happens to me. Because if I die... you die.”
