This meme draws a parallel between the character of Marianne from Sense and Sensibility and Elle Woods from Legally Blonde. The meme showcases Elle Woods in bed after being dumped by her long-term boyfriend, seemingly throwing something at a portrait of Willoughby.

This meme draws a perfect comparison between the reactions of both girls to their lovers, and being ignored/dumped. Having such a strong attachment to their former lovers, Marianne and Elle see their lives come crashing down after they are rejected. It showcases much about the characters specifically, along with social constructs at the time. They specifically share the character traits of sensibility, attachment, and a general a lack of self-love (initially, at least for Elle Woods). It causes them to both be smitten by lackluster men, that end up breaking their hearts and betraying them in various ways. It’s interesting that the role of women in relationships seems similar in this case. Austen is a traditionalist and writes about women in the 1700s. Legally Blonde is a movie from the 21st century, featuring modern constructs that represent progress and history. It’s interesting that such a stark and obvious parallel can be drawn with a modern, 21st century breakup scene. Although men and women both have equal reactions to relationships, this meme specifically showcases the role of women in this case and is interesting to see in the context of both, very different works.

Don’t mind me, just out here creating Jane Austen memes out of Good Omens stills while processing season 2 (Go watch it!). I’m sure Aziraphale would approve.

Pride and Prejudice x Good Omens

Just like Crowley, Elizabeth knows what’s coming, and she wishes she didn’t have to be there.

I wonder what Wickham’s punishment in the Good Omens hell would have looked like.

“Ah! Jane, I take your place now, and you must go lower, because I am a married woman.” I kinda love how obnoxious married Lydia is.

Truly one of my favourite moments in Austen’s novels, and any love story ever, is Mr. Darcy declaring Elizabeth “tolerable” and looking at her again to confirm his original verdict, only to go: “Daaamn. I was wrong.” (Also, the things I’d do to get a version of Darcy that does the Good Omens apology dance for Elizabeth.)

Thankfully, 10k a year helped Mrs. Bennet to change her mind about Darcy again very quickly.

The biggest change I’ve gone through since first getting into Austen was definitely going from loving Mr. Bennet because of his sarcasm to thinking he’s actually kind of awful.

Caroline Bingley, the original pick-me girl?

This meme features 3 characters from film adaptations of various Jane Austen works, including John Willoughby from Sense and Sensibility and Mr. Wickam from Pride and Prejudice, respectively.  

Each of these characters initially embody heroic attributes in the context of love interests for the various protagonists, however, as the meme suggests, their true characters come out through their actions as both works progress. John Willoughby is specifically referenced as a hero in his introduction in the novel, showcased in the following quote: “His person and air were equal to what her fancy had ever drawn for the hero of a favorite story...” Even the plot introduction paints him in a very heroic state, as he rescues Marianne from a fall and carries her all the way to safety. However, his true character is illuminated through his actions as the novel progresses, when he betrays Marianne and acts in a haughty and harsh manner. The following quote showcases this character portrayal as a villain: “a letter of which every line was an insult, and which proclaimed its writer to be deep in hardened villainy.” Austen’s characterization of people like John Willoughby and even Edward helps craft an intriguing novel, that forces the reader to analyze the characters for themselves, and even use Marianne and Elinor’s thoughts to inform their conclusions. Marianne’s naivety could be part of the reason why the readers see John Willoughby in such a positive light initially, because in her eyes, he is everything she is looking for. Her perception, however, could be clouded by her sensibility and longing for love, that consequently could have diluted the reader’s perception of John Willoughby. This is one explanation for why the readers see characters like John Willoughby in such a heroic light, when in fact, they are the villain.
