#and I yelled CLUE?

[ooc-miqojak]

Or just link anyone too critical of it this:

Because Glass Onion is just a love letter to Clue - hell they even use the Clue checklist as they check off who had motives, etc - even the Clue movie didn't go that far. And Clue knew not to take itself too seriously... and I think Glass Onion has fun making fun of itself, as well. Also, I mean, if people see a board game score sheet come out mid-movie, why are they still taking it so seriously? The Protag literally just called Clue - what they're playing - dumb! Expect a dumb outcome from the dumb game! (Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Like an ipad.) I also appreciate that they show a southern man doing what we do best: letting people assume our accent makes us stupid and naive.

Personal Sidenote - the fandom on tumblr seems to adore his accent, and all I have to say is:

Where were all the people who seem to LOVE southern drawls when I was growing up? I've only ever met people who would think you're stupid for having that accent! I had an accent at least as thick as Benoit's (I spent the first 10 years of my life in Arkansas, and boy the accent is thick as molasses down there), and I actively worked to lose it because kids were cruel, and teased me for it when I moved to SC (another southern state, funnily) - I remember the day and time rather vividly, even, that was the last time I got teased about it: homeroom, 6th grade. (Granted I can focus on it and bring that drawl back out - especially after seeing so much Benoit. But seeing people fetishize his accent is somehow simultaneously gross and uplifting, because the southern accent has a lot of stigmas attached to it.)

I love how the key to solving the mystery in Glass Onion is the realization that Elon Musk is actually a complete fucking dumbass

Like what I'm anticipating from some of the criticism for this movie are people who think the twist is too obvious and the conclusion underwhelming not understanding that That Is The Point.

Like the Elon parallels are obvious and hilariously prophetic considering his recent escapades with Twitter, but I think it was also really clever to have this as the central theme of the movie after Knives Out. Because out of everything Knives Out is praised for, one of the most common I see is how good the twist is. You can't really see it unless you pay close attention.

But with Glass Onion it's exactly what it says on the tin. You're expecting this huge twist when by halfway into the movie you've probably already figured it out, or at least thought of it. Like, I can't count how many times I thought "literally what if it's just Miles" followed by "nah, it couldn't be that obvious." But it is! Because these people are not smart! They create this complexity they are not owed and leave us to peel back the layers without realizing the center is staring us in the face.

It's really fucking good is what I'm saying.

I can’t believe I went through all of Season 2 assuming Nina was the stand-in for Crowley when you actually pay attention it’s so CLEAR that she’s Aziraphale. I was tricked by her spiky, sarcastic, cynical outer shell and lulled into a false sense of security by Maggie’s bubbly optimism and wholesome goodness, because on the surface they reflect the ineffable husbands perfectly, in their personalities, their aesthetics, even many of their actions and morals. but not, and this is the real key, when it comes to their “relationship”. but those first impressions really had me damn fooled. 

I missed the blatantness of Nina’s “we’re just friends. actually we’re not friends. we barely know each other.” the same thing Aziraphale said in season 1.  the way he still struggles to quantify their friendship when Nina asks. Nina’s sarcasm when Crowley asks about rain and awnings because it worked for him (we all know it LMAO). hell, that whole convo the girls have in the rain is so AziraCrow (“I know. I’m not your type” “...You have no idea” hits so much harder the second time, help meeeee.) “Lindsay” maybe being symbolic of Heaven and Aziraphale’s toxic relationship with them and their abuse? (the handwritten text messages in red pen make me think of angry notes on paperwork, anyone else?) because Crowley has never actually cared about what Hell thinks of him, just not getting into trouble (or him or Aziraphale getting hurt). Maggie is always chasing Nina. NINA NEVER GOES IN THE RECORD STORE. Just like Crowley always goes to the bookstore, to Aziraphale, Zira NEVER WENT TO THE FLAT (apart from The Swap but that doesn’t count imo). Crowley has always chased Zira, not the other way around. Always there to rescue him, always going to him for company, always relying on their shared connection, always US. OUR SIDE. All through season one, he comes to Zira every time to work together, never trying to work alongside Hell in any way that isn’t to save their skins or Earth, while Zira hides things from Crowley because he STILL thinks Heaven is ultimately good and will do the right thing if he can just show them. fix it from the inside. 

Maggie working up the courage to finally say something, to put herself out there, while Nina is utterly oblivious and then when she does realise Maggie has feelings, becoming standoffish, putting up that barrier, fighting it, denying it, ITS SO CROWLEY AND AZIRAPHALE IN THAT ORDER. the way I was fooled into thinking Nina’s trust issues are Crowley because he does have trust issues ofc he does BUT Crowley has ALWAYS TRUSTED AZIRAPHALE. has always relied on him. has always been hurt when Aziraphale doesn’t immediately reciprocate the way he expects (the holy water request, the bandstand, the “off in the stars” etc). he’s always the one putting himself forward. Aziraphale has always been the one to second guess everything, to fight their connection, their similarities, their friendship. the girls really made me think it was going to be okay when they sat Crowley down, even as my inner sirens were going haywire about Metatron interfering, they were telling Crowley he just needs to open up and it’ll all work out BUT HE’S ALREADY AT THAT POINT. he may not say it, and by gosh is that part of their damn problem, but he’s always SHOWN IT. he’s not Nina who needs time to heal and recover from her broken trust, he’s always been Maggie believing it doesn’t matter, they’ll end up together in the end anyway AND I WALKED RIGHT INTO THE TRAP THAT THIS MEANT THEY WERE GOING TO BE OKAYYYYYYYYYYY

Palia enjoyers, hear me out for a second...

Wouldn't it be cute if we also could send letters to the villagers?

Like, think about it! Being able to go to our mailbox, selecting a villager, selecting a type of letter and then receiving some type of reply the next day!

Choosing between different types of letters; "Send thoughtful Letter to...", "Send Love Letter to...", "Send Encouraging Letter to..." etc etc!

The options & replies you receive possibly changing across different friendship & romance levels...I just think it would be cute.

Thoughts?

I'm not even done with the third arc of Prime that has Remy Garou as a main antagonist. But let me tell you, Kremy's fear is SOUND. He isn't over reacting!!!

I can not find the post anymore but there was someone who made God of Ambition Gale in the Hades style so I wanted to draw my Galemancing tav Thalia if she ever ascended with him and in Hades 2 style very impulsive and self-indulgent doodle that's not a doodle anymore

(Might clean this up and make it better another time)

Motherfuckers. The assistant manager lied about an incident the other day n made it 10x worse than it really was and its lead to cops wantin our store to be shut down cuz its 'too dangerous'. Literally nothin happened dude was jus yellin bout wantin to stab someone who stole his stuff but assistant manager said he fucking pinned customers to the wall.

i do think the thing is like both armand and lestat do explicitly want to entrap louis it’s just that lestat is like i want to trap you because i am lonely and i need you so if you could just willingly walk into the trap that’d be great and armand is like i’m also trapped but i’ll still do what i can to lead you to freedom and thus we are not living in a trap at all, see? and both are horrific and both provide the illusion of choice for louis but like! it’s literally not a love triangle at all! it’s just repetitions of the theme!

The thing to do if you're playing a strategy game and not winning is to just pick the funniest angle possible and stick to that bit like glue
