Ein Liebesfilm. Da manche Mädchen einfach nicht von dieser Welt sind, informierte ich mich vorsichtshalber nochmal, wie diese auf Parties korrekt anzusprechen sind. Für Außerirdischen gelten zwar im Prinzip anderere Regeln, welche hier aber keine Verwendung finden, weil die kleinen Punks in Croydon annehmen, so sonderbar wie sie sich benehmen, sind es wohl Amerikaner. Muss als einer der besseren Filme mit Nicole Kidman gewertet werden.

Silent Sherlock at the London Film Festival: the game is afoot

Stand outside Alexandra Palace on a clear evening with a full moon, as I did last night, and you can take in the whole city. London may be as silent as it gets from this perspective, but the landscape is loud in its own way. The glittering towers that dominate the skyline were all built in the last 50, probably 20 years. The red lights dotted in among them are all cranes, standing by to change…

Satire aside (and still fabulous), this is an interesting observation. It never occurred to me to wonder how much of Morpheus is Himself versus the Collective Unconscious he's supposed to embody. Maybe it's because I haven't yet worked my way to the end of the books and to the ending I know is coming, where this very question is essential to your understanding of the character himself and not just a concept.

Also, this:

I think Dream views most of his conflicts like the Trolley Problem. And very rarely, like .1% of the time, it's a matter of the Collective Unconscious on one side and someone else on the other (like Rose during the vortex shenanigans), and that's when he struggles and hesitates and occasionally ends up blowing up the trolley in a fit of choice paralysis because unfortunately he cares so so much.

Now the other 99.9% of the time, it's the Collective Unconscious on one side and Dream on the other, and that's not even a little bit of a problem for Dream, he pulls the leaver on himself without even pausing to consider his options. This is easy. Fuck, he'll see empty tracks on one side and ask "is anyone gonna offer up their own wellbeing as a sacrifice over here?" and then not wait for an answer. He'll just lay face down and tell Matthew to fetch some rope.

And meanwhile Lucienne is grinding her teeth like "Sir. Sir. What if we. Didn't tie you to the tracks. So the trolley. Could pass by without hurting anyone. What if we made that a possibility here. We have the technology."

But Dream is already fully in character as both the cartoon villain tying a maiden to the train tracks and the maiden in question because the trolley has to run over someone, obviously, don't be stupid. Pull the leaver, Matthew.

Some ideas I had for a spinoff origin for Johanna Constantine:

Her family lived on magic stuff so she was forced to practice... because of her gifts she was considered weird and was bullied at school...she only had one friend in the world..the only other kid who would come near her: Chas Chandler.

*

Her father died while exorcizing a demon, her mother died giving birth to her, her grandmother raised her and her sister...because she was the first born she had the responsibility to carry on the family business while her sister got to live a normal life.

*

Her grandmother taught her everything, from speels to exorcisms..but the most important lesson was that every incantation came with a price...she was a strict old woman that raised Johanna to be as cunning and clever as the ancestral she took the name after.

*

I'm too lazy to continue this but it will lead to a theory of mine that The Family Man was after Rachel and Johanna found out so she had to eliminate him, he was the first person she ever killed and so she was traumatized and disgusted with herself..that's why she left Rachel 💔

just finished the bear season 3 and there is such a collective cognitive dissonance from everywhere from the writing of the show all the way to the social media marketing.

i know i’m biased because i particularly like syd and carmy together, but this season was strange but in different ways than the last season was strange.

not only does carmy take a backseat as a protagonist about halfway through, he and syd have hardly any scenes together, but i think the show almost suffers for it. this season was certainly funnier than the last, but the neil and ted fak got old and old fast. it certainly doesn’t help that even though carmy has a new arc every season, but he doesn’t take the lessons he should’ve learned into how he should act going forward. it’s stunting his growth and now that we have three seasons to compare to one another, it’s only more apparent.

we’ve already talked about how funny characters are stronger than comic relief characters and that’s essentially what the faks are. i really liked neil’s more vulnerable moments where he got to be taken seriously but it’s hard to take him seriously when all of his screen time is him doing stupid shit. also the hauntings thing? it really was not that funny.

also the show is making such an active attempt to rewrite its own history and i don’t understand why. so many little details that connect moments from the past and present to make up who the characters are and yet it’s kind of being thrown out the window.

claire being described as carmy’s peace threw me for a loop because he felt out of place in his own relationship. i think we all know the clip of carmy’s late s2 panic attack where thinking of claire and him together makes it worse but now we are given so many more scenes of when he was happy? what narrative are they trying to spin here? was carmy genuinely in love with claire or mostly disinterested, because it can’t be both.

even claire doesn’t seem interested in being with carmy at this point, and who can blame her?

her presence was just kind of weird to me, because she didn’t really interact with the rest of the cast until the 9th episode. i think her brief hospital scenes were to flesh her out more, but it’s really just creating vulnerabilities and revealing the seams. and because she’s never really been developed as much as everyone else in the series, we’re left with more questions. who was that in her bed? why was she never fired for insane medical malpractice? what is any of this for?

also a lot of the lighting this season has changed. i saw one user (can’t remember who but their post was super interesting) mention how much warmer and inviting the scenes with syd are as opposed to the coolness and almost detachment the scenes with claire were. except we see carmy in cool lighting a lot more this season.

i also wanted to add where carmy gets overwhelmed in the finale, thoughts of claire coming in with a violin sting like a horror movie doesn’t add to the narrative that they keep telling us. that’s another thing i noticed. they tell us how great claire was even though their time together hindered him being involved with his passions and his coworkers, but they retcon things and add scenes of them happy and have carmy tell us how amazing she is but they barely cared to show us.

a huge theme in this show is family and responsibility. and the scene where neil fak said claire could be the one to take care of carmy and vice versa really rubbed me the wrong way. first of all, i think it kind of supports the idea of codependency which isn’t great but i could be reaching. second, carmy isn’t really equipped to take care of anyone and i think the way he interacts with his coworkers when he’s frustrated is proof of that.

don’t get me wrong, i thought this season was amazing television, christopher storer is a brilliant writer and director, joanna calo really should helm more episodes bc ice chips was actually a perfect episode, and ayo getting the opportunity to direct tina’s episode was so amazing and i really hope i see her name in more directorial projects in the near future. but i think we’re getting a little lost in the plot here and losing sight of what the heart of the show is. the literal restaurant. and logically some of the decisions made don’t exactly hold up and i would hate to see this show fumble.

it can’t be a coincidence that so much of the show’s marketing is tied to carmy and syd and i think efforts to trick the audience are actually making the show suffer. or the increasingly less subtle decisions in the editing in the few scenes of them together? are you really gonna gaslight a whole audience for the sake of a misdirect?
