No timestamps but ill give info on when a v* scene is gonna happen.
The first V* scene is near the start of the movie.
When you get to the scene where tyler is in the bath eating a burger and his sister tells him “the water’s getting in my room” , Right after that is gonna be a very quick jumpcut to tyler running on a track and then vomiting shortly after. So The bath scene should be your heads up.
Second V* moment is also in the first half.
There will be a long bonfire sequence where tyler is singing along to a kendrick song, and starts hitting a blunt then theres a long scene of him hallucinating alexis on the other side of the fire. You shouldn’t worry for that scene but shortly after when his friend says “lets go” there’s a sequence where tyler is in the car with his friend and sticks his head out the window. When you get to that scene, heads up because the next jumpcut is the most triggering scene. It goes on for a long time and is close up.
The last V* scene is near the end of the film. It happens in the hospital. When Luke and Emily are hugging Luke’s dad in his hospital bed, thats your warning. The next scene is a jumpcut to Luke’s dad throwing up blood in a plastic container. You dont really see the vomiting its kinda the aftermath, but a chunk of blood is coming out his mouth and he’s gagging intensely

When the main couple is leaving the abortion clinic, one of the pro-life people screams the n word at the black man several times as they are walking to their car.
