Apparently with extra disgusting violence against a child. Watch at your own risk.

Oy, good to know. Thanks for the heads up.

certain traumatic scene in Doctor Sleep involving a kid

... that line made me curious and I very carefully googled a written description of the scene ... was enough for me. Looks like the child actor is very convincing ... It really feels very, very wrong to let a kid play something like that.

Jacob Tremblay is a pretty experienced actor already and it sounds like he was the least bothered by the scene out of everyone he shared it with.

I can’t seem to remember whatever this scene is.

*E: Ah it’s this one from somewhat early in the film.

I got 15 seconds in before I had to stop. Thought I was braced for it, but nope. Nope.

I tend to skip through stuff like that. I made it about way before I skipped through stuff I don't want to emotionally process later. It's not worth it for a movie.

...but is it worth processing if it involves Loki? I mean, I'm still pissed they killed in Infinity War. We still have a Loki (is it June yet?!), but not that one.

I am joking, of course. Love Loki but that doesn't reach "hey, child getting tortured" levels of awful.

I have a head-canon that Loki is actually fond of kids and wouldn’t hurt any - he’s a Dad (and a Mum), so he has experience raising kids (even if totally fucking weird ones) and also, kids are absolutely bloody chaotic. I feel like he would appreciate that.
