One thing I was eager to watch again when Glass Onion came out was the glass scene between Miles and Duke, and it did not disappoint. In theaters, I was so sure that Duke picked up the glass, so I figured that they showed us that the first time around before revealing that’s not what happened, but no. They trick the shit out of the audience the EXACT same way they trick the characters. They just tell you that you saw something different and you believe it without question. It’s so brilliant and I just got goosebumps watching it over again and realizing how easily I had been manipulated. I love these movies.
Not only that but if you watch closely, you can see Miles stealing the gun, the as he’s walking towards the bar, you can see the outline of it under his sweat. And then, as he’s starting his drink mix, you also see him hidding the gun away in the bar.
Damn that is brilliant.
bruh if people want me to stop sympathizing with villains they need to stop making the villains the ones who want to change broken systems
#and stop making heroes fight to maintain the status quo ffs
i have a hot take about vine and tik tok if you allow me
vine’s entire concept was “show don’t tell” while tik tok’s entire concept is “tell don’t show”
might risk sounding like an Old Fart but i want to elaborate what i mean:
sometimes i will see Tiktoks that are just people talking to a camera about a thing that happened to them and then at the end… won’t even show the thing they’re talking about. they’re just talking to a camera. that or the few staged jokes take waaaaaay too much time to get to the punchline, and the punchline isn’t even funny (and the acting is bad)
meanwhile on vine, you only had 7 seconds, and in 7 seconds you could have anything happen, and a dude said “back at it at krispy kreme” and did backflips and kicked out a sign in his final flip and the video just cut with no explanation, and it was the greatest vine on earth
If I saw Dracula scuttle down the side of his castle I’d be like “I didn’t take that count chap for the extreme sports type…a true jack of all trades!” (Oblivious)
Dracula would actually be suspicious of me not the other way around. First night I’d have to ask if the food has garlic in it and he’d think I somehow figured his whole thing out.
Count, my main man, my homeboy, why have you removed the wooden posts from my bed frame?
Based on the fact I current have bedsheets thrown over my curtains bc they let in too much light
Ok but Dracula retold with the solicitor being just the weirdest guy who thinks everything Dracula does is normal bc he does similar shit, and Dracula is weirded out by him actually.
Oh Dracula you and your strange phobias! Allergic to wood shavings he says, haha allergies are weird.
how many elizabethan people do we think spontaneously realized they were lgbt after watching twelfth night be performed
imagine being a repressed teenager in 1602 and going to the theatre to see the new play that’s being put on and it’s about a love triangle between a man, a woman, and a woman disguised as a man who both the man and the woman fall in love with, and because it’s elizabethan england both the woman and the woman disguised as a man are played by young men. I would have turned transgender on the spot I think
