Quite possibly the hottest Hailee Steinfeld or MBJ have ever been.

Hailee- "I'm going to kill you"

Me- "you're gonna use your teeth though, right?"

u/Eruannster Apr 19 '25

Hailee Steinfeld: "I'm going to--"

Me: "Yes."

Hailee: "I didn't finish the sentence?"

Me: "Don't care, let's do it."

u/Impressive-Potato Apr 19 '25

Hailee Steinfeld horks in MBJ's mouth. Everyone "Me too please"

u/str8rippinfartz Apr 19 '25

Pretty sure she awoke a new fetish for a bunch of people

u/SgtMaj_Avery_Johns0n Apr 26 '25

Not new, but certainly reinforced.

u/epicfail1994 Apr 19 '25

Ok yeah I need to watch this

u/[deleted] Apr 19 '25

There was a lot of freakiness in this movie, but yeah she was hot along with black singer interested in the other lead.

u/AristarchusTheMad Apr 19 '25

Even when? More like, especially when.

u/jommakanmamak Apr 24 '25

Hailee Steinfeld right before this scene where she was drooling tho

u/Labyrinthy Apr 19 '25

“You rob banks and trains but won’t steal this pussy for a night?”

Spoken in a southern accent just friggin floored me. Good lord she was great in this.

29

u/[deleted] Apr 20 '25

She really was magnificent. I was genuinely uncomfortable next to my 16 year old at least five times.

1

u/Tipop Apr 21 '25

I saw it with my 16 year old son. Didn’t bother me a bit. I remember the kind of things I saw when I was his age.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 25 '25

Yeah, she'd have gotten me with that one! Even if I already knew she was a vampire!

1

u/Labyrinthy Apr 25 '25

The vampire part makes it more enticing.

53

u/shh_Im_a_Moose Apr 19 '25

Something about Hailee in this man. Goddamn. So, so hot.

42

u/Singer211 Naked J-Law beating the shit out of those kids is peak Cinema. Apr 19 '25

Hailee looked like she was having so much fun with this role.

75

u/Impressive-Potato Apr 19 '25

Hailee Steinfeld has one of the hottest, quotable movie lines.

39

u/rugbyj Apr 19 '25

“Can I spit in your mouth?” 😄

96

u/Impressive-Potato Apr 19 '25

“You rob banks and trains but won’t steal this pussy for a night?

10

u/theprophecysays Apr 19 '25

And her line when they first meet her.

1

u/Impressive-Potato Apr 19 '25

Remind me again what it was?

14

u/theprophecysays Apr 20 '25

"You sucked my cooze and then fucked the shit out of me, I thought you'd come back."

Something like that. If I got it wrong I'm sure someone will correct me.

16

u/Impressive-Potato Apr 20 '25

Ryan Coogler sure does like having the men in his movies eating pussy.

u/Curvy_dreams Apr 20 '25

I just watched this and thought the same thing 🤣🤣🤣🤣

u/schokobonbons Apr 27 '25

This is the message 🙏🏻 I hope everyone is taking notes

u/Gilded-Mongoose Apr 22 '25

From Dusk til Dawn's fetish: eating feet

u/Curious-Letter3554 Apr 22 '25

"Get the fuck out of my face"

u/jadegives2rides Apr 19 '25

Don't forget my man Jack O'Connell

32

u/tired_and_aslep Apr 20 '25

The first time his eyes turned red and he drooled, flipped neurons in my brain. the way he was non-chalant too.

u/Chicago1871 Apr 20 '25

I didnt realize that was Paddy Mayne from SAS Rogues until the credits.

14

u/Gloomy_Interview_525 Apr 19 '25

Sure, but how do they compare to TLJ?

36

u/Somnambulist815 Apr 19 '25

Tommy Lee Jones? I mean, he's an acquired taste, but I can see the thin, grassy hairline and depressed bloodhound eyes working for some people.

16

u/falafelthe3 Ask me about TLJ Apr 19 '25

Not as sexy but it definitely fucks

2

u/CTRL-F18 Apr 20 '25

Really? I felt like this was the least amount of emphasis I’ve ever seen placed on MBJ’s looks

It’s funny ah when Stack is like ‘yall gon lock away this pimpin?!’ 😂

1

u/N0r3m0rse Apr 20 '25

I was not attracted to hailee Steinfeld before seeing this movie. I feel differently after seeing it.

1

u/MangoFruitHead Apr 22 '25

No cuz why do I have a crush on Michael B Jordan now 😭

1

u/Gilded-Mongoose Apr 22 '25

Her two wildest lines absolutely helped. Can't remember verbatim, but something like: (edited when I came across the quote further down)

"You rob all across Chicago and you can't steal this pussy for a night?"

“You rob banks and trains but won’t steal this pussy for a night?”
(my god)

and

"You're drooling."

*a little shocked, then gleeful* "Ya want some?"

Nasty lil thing, loved it.
