Too cute, Emmet picking up Justin like a kid 😂well, I mean Peter to Randy. I believe it was from the pride parade episode.

Some of my Queer as Folk hot takes:
The show absolutely did Emmett dirty with his love life. He deserved so much better. The show's romantic ending for him will infuriate me until the day I die. We get, what, 4 sentences from the guy Emmett winds up with?
The show making Hunter straight was stupid. Hunter is bisexual. Why else would he be so pursuant of Brian? Hunter even offered to pay Brian to sleep with him, which makes zero sense if Hunter was legitimately straight. I feel similarly about Lindsay. I think she's bisexual, not a lesbian.
Ted and Blake should not have ended up together. Their relationship has waaayyyyy too much baggage. It was built on trauma and continued to grow on unhealthy power dynamics. Granted, it is slightly better than Ted and Emmett winding up together (they were a billion times better as friends), but that's an incredibly low bar.
I love Justin, but Justin was kind of a prick during a lot of season 2. He enters into a relationship with Brian (an enormous step on Brian's part that Justin should have appreciated more). What does Justin do mere weeks later? Break their agreement with some random guy at a party. True, it must've been beyond frustrating for Justin that Brian refused to tell Justin that he loved him. Still, Justin's resentment that they weren't monogamous or romantic enough annoys me to no end. Justin agreed to Brian's suggested relationship, and Justin set the majority of the parameters for it himself. Justin was the only one who violated their boundaries as a couple, and he did so very quickly. Yes, him cheating and eventually leaving was kind of understandable because he was young, and Ethan fed him a lot of bullshit that got Justin's hopes up. But it remains terrible. Brian was often a shithead, but he deserved better.
THE HOTTEST TAKE: Brian and Justin not getting married was the right thing to do, and (here's the hot take part) they should not get back together. That is, unless Justin changes his mind about monogamy, he and Brian get a new place together where they can both be successful, and they take partial custody of Gus. I see the last 2 things potentially happening, but if Justin continues to be dead set on monogamy, his and Brian's relationship will always be doomed like Brian says.
I have more unpopular opinions if anyone wants to hear them. What are your QAF hot takes?
EDIT: I posted a part 2 as well.

The Thing About Harry (2020)
Director: Peter Paige
Stars: Jake Borelli, Niko Terho, Britt Baron...
Language: English
Length: 1h 25m
Two high school enemies are forced to drive together to a friend's engagement party on Valentine's Day.
Cute, feel-good movie with an interesting story, but it didn’t manage to scratch below the surface of my feelings. Generally, it was nice, but nothing more than that. I didn’t feel that much of a chemistry, didn’t connect with the movie nor the characters all that much. Also, I’m surprised at the length of the movie now that I’m writing this, because at the time of watching it, I remember feeling like it was too long (like it was more than 2 hours) and wishing for the ending to come already LOL, which was an obvious sign of my boredom. The ending was also a bit too cheesy for my taste.
Rating: 3/5
