@ianamurray
why’d they make choices in this movie? wild that they’re so close to identifying something but they stop at “that was weird & couldn’t have been on purpose”
@responsiblerob
it’s also incredible strategy for keeping his actual life semi-private, everyone fixates on the wild story each time and he skates by without having to give out any real info
@goldfiregodking
ah yes, that end part where he imagines the destructive nuclear future he’s created, smiles broadly, then christopher nolan appears on screen and says “everyone who worked on this movie loves nuclear weapons and hopes we get to use them again soon”
@entmoots
love that they’re all assuring her it won’t ruin *their* personal experience, bestie i’m sure it won’t but the artist looking out to a sea of phones and the person standing behind the person filming the whole time are also having experiences that are affected by you

@offbeatorbit
retinol at 14 is nuts…did she get all these ideas online or are some from an almond mom? it is cute that her green tea is the trader joe’s matcha mix, which has plenty of sugar & milk powder & is not the “clean” health tonic she may think
@TrophyUncle
@presidentgay
and post-sex, margot puts her strapless bra Back On to lounge in bed- as women love to do- a big Men Made This moment for me
@alyssakeiko
(especially because i work in theatre) i don’t understand the belief that the artist owes you both the live experience and an infinitely accessible record of that experience. and idk but i don’t think neurotypicals are really remembering things as precisely as they think they are
@bloodbuzz
and I’m sure especially in the last few years they’d started experiencing teen milestones he didn’t have/had a very different experience of- like going to prom, applying to college, he had a kid before he learned to drive, and how did he finish high school?
@caitiedelaney
do they think people were watching it when it aired like “another week of great decisions! slam dunk after slam dunk by carrie bradshaw!” ??
@judysquirrels
the girl has such a distinctly modern tiktok/sydney sweeney voice, it doesn’t feel like she’s ever in a “normal” state, even when she’s not possessed she’s ready to shoot a grwm video
@hiimbobbi
But Gracie’s also mirroring Elizabeth- in the first scene she says she hopes she won’t show up and keep her big Hollywood sunglasses on at the party to seem above everyone, and then she’s wearing her own giant pair at graduation.
@amandayoungdyke
“dad did whatever he wanted” yeah he did whatever he wanted to you, you probably weren’t allowed to see when he had to deal with people who stood up to him
@BeeBabs
Some of it feels like she was probably the kind of skinny mom who was very conscious/critical of Shiv’s weight over the years so she clocked the general change and then could feel it by how she was carrying it in the body too
@FruitOnBottom
Also for people so attached to books, they haven’t read hers! Her philosophy is obviously more complicated than the show, and also she wants you to apply it subjectively. If all the books bring you joy, keep them with joy!
@catholicguilter
and having performed extended physical intimacy together on camera it makes sense they’d be very physically comfortable with each other! plenty of actors who haven’t done that are still all over each other, platonically
@jessecrall
yeah the “you can tell he really wants an oscar” convo is really obscuring a lot of other, more interesting stuff he’s telling us with this movie
@filmfae
it was very cool when bong joon-ho had sharon choi as his dedicated interpreter throughout the parasite awards season- she became another character we knew on the team, and you could trust she knew him and the spirit of what he was saying
@superkeara
part of the privilege/hubris of their class/$ situation is the belief that they could instantly acquire a Good Career if they chose it, & that if you left yours to trad for a while you could pick it right back up where you left off whenever if you really wanted to
@redroomrantings
Yes! When I only saw a few movies a year it felt egregious when awards didn’t align. I saw ~150 in 2023(& still missed some), a lot of my favorites weren’t even in the conversation. Would be impossible to all fit, but I’m excited how many actually did this year!
@diandrasdiandra
karl has like 40 years of executive salary plus what he’ll make from shares in the sale, the exec team seem much lower status than the family but they’re paid well for that treatment
@kit1049
@PallaviGunalan
like maybe on that post ig showed him the second slide first that is just all about her and he didn’t swipe back before commenting…but if he’s seen any of her other posts, the connection’s pretty clear
@emilynussbaum
I think Derry Girls would not want to be called British but otherwise perfect, Catastrophe, Ghosts (death but not murder, and pretty zen about it)
@ppyajunebug
“No of COURSE a reformation large does not fit me, can you IMAGINE how huge I’d have to be for that?! this top OBVIOUSLY fits me like a circus tent, but I guess SOMEONE could wear it true to size”
@the_jackalope_
@AbeehaTariqArt
22 ep seasons kept people steadily employed all year, unions were not against them. It’s not inherently more overworking than shorter seasons (which can mean compressed shoot schedules, fewer but longer days). Any length show can be scheduled safely & sustainably, it’s a $ choice
@clewisreviews
also feels like producer malpractice to open new shows (esp plays) on Bway right now and bail after 2 weeks (or less). Sell a limited run and extend if it hits but if you can’t swing even a month run to start you’re just playing with people’s lives
@Nicole_Cliffe
When they buy the fridge! And she’s looking at nice ones! And he picks the smallest one! And they put it in the fridge hole in the kitchen! And there’s so much extra room!
@eventualforever
i hope they give it a good rollout, but i fear it will be their classic annual move of buying an international masterpiece and only letting the american gen pop see it post-peak awards season (portrait of a lady on fire, worst person in the world, la chimera most recently).
@capybaroness
this and their reliance/willingness to put everything on google drive/the cloud/access media only through streaming- so much trust that reliable wifi will be available absolutely everywhere and that these companies will keep the things you need safe and accessible
@zachsilberberg
@kbaileyjava2
elevated even with “remember? he sat facing us while we watched it” and then cary doing that again at his premiere of night nurse
@EmperorOTN1
you would think “Filmmakers Need to Rescue Each Other From Their Deals With You” would be a reputation these companies would want to avoid, and yet…
@judysquirrels
also i am begging people to seek out philosophical argument, politics, & morality outside of the narrative arts & entertainment industry because it is getting exhausting out here, I don’t wanna judge film on the basis of if it fulfills your thesis & exactly matches your worldview
@theashleyray
the way that class warfare has shifted from ending billionaires and fixing systems to attacking someone for the crime of “having more than one room in their apartment”
@alyssakeiko
yeah if i’m present for the moment i don’t remember every second but i know i fully felt it! also if you really wanna watch video after there’ll usually be quality versions on youtube soon after and probably of your specific show!
@ppyajunebug
She cannot broadcast her lifestyle the way she does and then expect me to believe she doesn’t have $800 for something she actually REALLY wants
@ianamurray
this movie has an extended sequence where a little person is unable to reach to unlock a door while scared of being murdered and plays it for laughs, but it’s really about empathy
@BrndnStrssng
O’Connor is def the more exciting for me, but I think he’s also had more time/work to build his craft w/o as much scrutiny- he’s been simmering for a while. Mescal kinda came out insta-hyped. So def Josh has it, but I hope he can give some of it to Paul, bc he also has something
@jenawithonen
@BebopOtt
@Virginia_Thomas
she wants to act like chicago is her private kingdom, when hilariously the mayor’s office has lost powers during her term because of her actions
@emilynussbaum
I would note that between Roe and it’s striking, there were nearly 50 years, so there actually was a generation of American women who lived their whole potential childbearing years able to take it for granted. They definitely weren’t millennials, though they may have raised some.
@plushunicornss
@Dan0nat0r
dune is her biggest/most recent or upcoming project. he’s also dating kylie jenner who was there, and he’s known for interesting red carpet fashion. much more likely he was just unable to attend for some reason than that he wasn’t invited when his profile is higher than ever.
