Movie Commentary Monday: Episode 1
Hello everyone and welcome to the very first episode of Movie Commentary Monday (or as i call MCM, which sounds ridiculous by the way) where I express my thoughts on a movie while desperately trying to be funny (and usually fail).
There will be dozens of side comments in brackets because I talk too much, sorry in advance.
This weekā€™s movie is:
Tumblr media
Isnā€™t It Romantic (2019)
Directed by:Ā Todd Strauss-Schulson
Writing Credits:Ā Erin Cardillo (screenplay&story), Dana Fox (screenplay) & Katie Silberman (screenplay)
Stars: Rebel Wilson, Liam Hemsworth, Adam Devine, Priyanka Chopra, Betty Gilpin, Brandon Scott Jones
Summary:Ā A young woman disenchanted with love mysteriously finds herself trapped inside a romantic comedy.
(thanks IMDb)
Now, buckle up folks, itā€™s gonna be a loooooong ride. Letā€™s get down to business!
(this isnā€™t a Mulan reference)
Why is the Mom so bitter about happy endings? I bet she has seen things...
They donā€™t make movies for girls like us.Ā 
THIS!!! LINE!!! IS!!! SO!!! IMPORTANT!!!Ā 
That single sentence just basically summarized the entire history of Hollywood and you canā€™t argue with me on this. The evidence is thereĀ (sorry iā€™m bitter like mom) (iā€™m full of rage like younger john mulaney)
Natalieā€™s (Rebel Wilson) apartment is a mess and is so tiny, itā€™s like screaming YOUR FUTURE HOUSEĀ at me, itā€™s unbelievable
Fucking finally, a realistic view of New York; smelly, crowded, and filth everywhere (not that i could ever know, i donā€™t live there but iā€™ve seen metropolitans before)
ā€œSTOP THE CART WITH YOUR BODYā€ WTFFF Iā€™M CRYING THATā€™S SO RUDE
Ok, Natalieā€™s a nobody at the workplace, even though sheā€™s a fricking architect. UNREALISTIC TO ME
That co-worker and office manager can choke, thatā€™s all Iā€™m gonna say
Ohmygod, Whitney (Betty Gilpin) is so cute, Iā€™ve seen her 10 secs in and I already love her (lovey dovey characters are always my faves)
JOSH (Adam Devine) IS AMAZING, ADORABLE DORK, PROTECT HIM AT ALL COSTS
LIAM HEMSWORTHā€™S AMERICAN ACCENT GOT ME SH00K!!! He just saidĀ ā€œGoddamn itā€ and I am already hooked
Who puts whipped cream in a coffee? ME, BITCH
I PUT WHIPPED CREAM IN MY COFFEE BECAUSE BLACK COFFEE TASTES LIKE SHIT, SORRY THAT Iā€™M NOT TOUGH AS YOU
Natalie says nice guy with a nice life and it... kinda bothers me. Itā€™s a reaaaally generic expression and a bit insulting if you think about it bc if you donā€™t fit that personā€™s standards of being nice with having a nice life, it discourages you (in this case, you=man). So when Josh saidĀ ā€œIā€™m a nice guy with a nice lifeā€ I thought ā€˜Of course you areā€™ bc he is in my standards. What Iā€™m trying to say is that rom-coms have stereotypes on not only women but also men. Yes, it is sad.
Awwww Josh has a crush on Natalie *wipes happy tears* but she thinks heā€™s looking at the model billboard LMAO SAME, NAT
Iā€™m so done (but itā€™s also so relatable, bc iā€™m like Nat but with less cynicism)
WHITNEYā€™S DESKTOP OMG
PAWSITIVE VIBES???? I WANNA MARRY HER SO WE CAN WATCH ROM-COMS WITH CATS ON OUR LAPS ALL DAY TOGETHER
Natalie was on the subway and a stranger waved at her. Then he tried to mug her. Then she knocked herself over. My mom always says donā€™t talk to strangers and I see why. Iā€™m 22, if youā€™re wondering *clears throat* Moving on...
OH MY GOD SHE WOKE UP WITH THE MAKE-UP ON AND A NICELY DONE HAIR WITH FLOWERS AND STRAWBERRY DRINK ON THE SIDE, I CANā€™T-
Oh, hello Mr. Morningstar... *wiggles eyebrows* (quick note, i donā€™t actually watch Lucifer but i really like Tom Ellis)
She just ripped her IV and blood didnā€™t spill everywhere, yeah this is a rom-com alrightĀ 
Sheā€™s dressed from lost and found and she looks like Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman-
NO WAIT, THE ENTIRE SETTING HAS CHANGED
HOLY SHITĀ ā€˜A THOUSAND MILESā€™ BY VANESSA CARLTON IS STARTED TO BE PLAYED BY A RANDOM GUY ON A BIKE AND HE PLAYS IT FROM THE STEREO ON HIS BIKE Iā€™M CACKLING
ENTER LIAM, HE LOOKS SO GOOD I CANā€™T EVEN DESCRIBE (iā€™m a thirsty hoe, your suspicions are correct)
What the fuck does beguiling mean? *checks dictionary* oh, okay *is weirded out now*
HEā€™S AUSSIE NOW, THEYā€™VE DONE IT, HEā€™S KEEPING THE ACCENT, AND Iā€™M HAPPY AGAIN
...Birds form a heart while flying... Uhhh... Strawberries and champagne in the limo... Rich as fuck, my poor ass canā€™t relate
NATALIEā€™S STREET HAS CHANGED, TOO
Heā€™s giving her flowers already? Ok- NO WAIT
HE JUST WROTE HIS NUMBER ON MULTIPLE FLOWER PETALS AND HANDED TO HER, IS HE FOR REAL LMAO
ā€œBut thereā€™s only one of you, so...ā€ Well, this doesnā€™t change the fact that there are millions of ways to order the numbers, you dumbass (why is he like this)
Her apartment... Every Millenialsā€™ dream
And... A gay neighbor/best friend who acts like an over-feminine gay (which is also a stereotype)
So, Iā€™ll count every rom-com trope Iā€™ve seen in 22 mins *counts her fingers* So far, I have seven tropes
The Big Presentation (eight)
Unconventional workplace which looks like a Google office (nine)
Nat is the star architect now (ten)
Rival bitchy colleague (eleven) (WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE WHITNEY, THOUGH) (SHEā€™S MY SENSITIVE WIFE) (oh, she looks hot)
They gave like, four other tropes in two mins and it doesnā€™t feel like rushed at all *salutes respectively*
The setting change is so... Like, you cannot miss it, itā€™s sweet and makes you feel all giddy inside, itā€™s so lovely, so rom-com like (does that make sense to you?)
OH PRIYANKA, SHE JUST TURNED AND Iā€™M LIKEĀ ā€œOh Iā€™m fuckedā€
ā€œJossssssshā€
Natalie keeps falling (twelve)
ā€œMY LIFE IS A ... ... ROMANTIC COMEDY!ā€ ā€œAND ITā€™S ... PG-13!ā€³ EVERYONE STARTED DANCING BEHIND HER Iā€™M HOLLERINGĀ 
The subway map behind her is shaped in a heart, lovey dovey couples everywhere... And shEā€™S GONNA JUMP ONTO A TRAIN??? THIS GOT DARK ALL OF A SUDDEN
Officer Hansom *facepalms*
She threw the flower petals and guess what? THE NUMBERS FELL DOWN IN THE CORRECT ORDER, WHO COULD HAVE KNOWN HAHAHA (thirteen)
Yā€™ello
Yā€™ELLO
Yā€™E LL O
IS THIS HOW AUSSIES ANSWER THE PHONE, AUSSIE MUTUALS PLEASE RESPOND
BLAKE (Liam Hemsworth) IS SO ADORABLE Iā€™M ROOTING FOR EVERYONE IN THIS MOVIEĀ 
Dress up montage... Yeah- Oh wait, they cut it out what the hell fvygbuhnj I WANT MY DRESS UP MONTAGE, GIVE IT TO MEEE
This is some fancy first date though... Also leaving 100 bucks tip doesnā€™t justify breaking in to a store I guess??? Seems like the law has no function in rom-coms lmao (fourteen)
BUTTER PECAN??? HOW OLD ARE YOU, 200 OR SOMETHING??? WHAT THE FUCK, MAN
The rain... You know whatā€™s coming after- Ah, and they kissed *giggles uncontrollably* YES!!! (fifteen)
THEY CANā€™T HAVE SEX BC ITā€™S PG-13Ā (liamā€™s abs, though) *bi scream*
Her apartment makes me cry, itā€™s so beautiful (ok iā€™ll stop counting from now on bc i cannot keep up anymore)
Also the romantic tension between Natalie and Josh................ I have no words
Isabella (Priyanka Chopra) calls JoshĀ ā€˜Mushā€™ and itā€™s so f-king cringey, I swear to God sxrdctfvygu
STOP OVERSELLING NEW YORK, WE KNOW ITā€™S NOT THAT GOOD
I can talk about Blake for five hours, heā€™s so fucking funny lmao
Donny (Brandon Scott Jones) is such a gay sidekick, he comes out of nowhere and talks weirdly but he makes me laugh so Iā€™ll give him a pass
NOW WEā€™RE GETTING SOMEWHERE, NATALIEā€™S GONNA STOP ISABELLA&JOSHā€™S WEDDING
That musical scene is everything, and Natalie hits that high note H AR D
GET IT, GIRL
Blake............ no-
I ROOTED FOR YOU, WE ALL ROOTED FOR YOU, HOW COULD YOU DO THAT-
Oh my, heā€™s a certified douchebag, I shouldā€™ve guessed, Iā€™m so disappointed in myselfĀ 
Unexpected wisdom coming from Donny who had no function to the story other than appearing beside Natalie at random times (again, rom-com trope)Ā 
BUT at least he made her realised who matters to her the most
Slow motion running!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Ā 
Her boobs are like sxrdctfvyg SHAKING AS SHEā€™S RUNNING ESXRDCTFVYB (as someone who has big breasts, i relate to that so hard)Ā 
ā€œYoga Ambassador. Yoga. Ambassador.ā€Ā ā€œAmbassadors are for countries, not for streching.ā€ Dang, Nat!!!
She finally realised she loves herself! Awww, thatā€™s so sweet and empowering and I canā€™t get enough of this!!!! Yes, to love someone else first you should love yourself!
Oh she crashed the car and went back to reality
Another hot doctor???? Wait, Iā€™m confused- No, false alarm, sheā€™s back and her real doctor is tired, is also swimming through lawsuits LMFAO
She pulled her IV and blood SPILLED EVERYWHERE AS IT SHOULD BE, THANK GOD
Iā€™m glad that sheā€™s happy with what sheā€™s got and she didnā€™t decide to keep what sheā€™s been doing but instead, tried to take care of herself, itā€™s such a good message to young girls and I cannot praise this enough
PLOT TWIST, DONNY IS ACTUALLY REALLY GAY AND HAS A BOYFRIEND AND IS ALSO A WEED DEALER OH MY FUCKING GOD I LOVE THE TWIST SO MUCHĀ 
Natalie!!! Is!!! Confident!!! Now!!! Iā€™m literally living for this *throws hearts to the screen*
OH MY WIFE IS BACK, HI WHITNEY I LOVE YOU MY SWEET SUMMER WIFE I MISSED YOU
Nat stormed into that meeting and sheā€™s. on. fireeee
Real Blake is as jerk as ever, no surprise
Using parking lots as metaphors would never cross my mind but ok I guess???
Fuck, he saidĀ ā€œWhat does beguiling mean?ā€ Iā€™M LOST FOR WORDS, THIS MOVIE SXDCTFVYGU
JOSH HAS BEEN LOOKING AT NATALIE FOR THE WHOLE TIME, NOT THE SWIMSUIT MODEL, WHO COULD HAVE THOUGHT???
ps. me and probably everyone else except Nat lol
EVERYONE SINGS
THIS IS NOT A DRILL
I REPEAT, EVERYONE SINGS AND ITā€™S SO GOOD
LIAM PLAYS THE SAX HOLY SHIT HEā€™S SO HOT Iā€™M GONNA FAINT
Priyanka with that rose.......... Consider me dead, thank you
ā€œItā€™s hot as fuckā€ tcfyvgubh probably true
Overall, I would give this movie 7/10 because of the message. Plot is nicely done and I got see basically every single rom-com tropes. At total, I counted 23 tropes I guess? If I could look every minor detail, I would count more but I wonā€™t get into it that much for now. (iā€™m running late to a meeting with friends so i have to cut short)
I loved the production design, setting felt like Iā€™m in a classic rom-com movie and characters were written accordingly. Every actor in the movie has fit perfect to me. I especially loved Priyanka and Liam because 1) Iā€™ve never seen any of her movies and 2) Itā€™s been a long time since I watched a Liam Hemsworth movie (i only watched hunger games, so you think about it lmao)
I guess thatā€™s about it! I have a list for the next weeksā€™ movies but if you have a request then tell me so, I will watch your recommendations first! I appreciate comments; if you have something to add, please do. I will read every single one of them.
See you next week!

WELCOME TO ROSWELL, AXON!!
ADMIN CAMERON:Ā The balance between the thirst for freedom and fear of breaking the rules is one of the more difficult aspects of the skeleton, but I believe Axon really hits that middle-ground well. Thereā€™s this repetition in the writing as well which really gets across that vibe as well, it feels almost like an internal battle inside of them.Ā 
Youā€™ve been accepted as THE CIRCUIT with the faceclaim of CHA HAKYEON. Please follow all rules and regulations as laid out by the Roswell Town Council, especially concerning any non pre-approved biologic. All UFOā€™s outside of city limits must be stickered or will be towed. Enjoy your stay in the first city of extraterrestrials.
OUT OF CHARACTER.
NAME/ALIAS + PRONOUNS:
Tony + He/him
AGE:
17!
TIMEZONE + ACTIVITY:
EST + I would say about a 5 or 6 out of 10. I have a job and currently am doing summer school work, but I should be able to keep a fairly stable activity level. Even when school starts again, I think it would be safe to put me at a 5.
TRIGGERS:
Removed for privacy.
ANYTHING ELSE?:
Iā€™ve been role playing on Tumblr since, likeā€¦ god. 2012? Iā€™m in a few roleplays, but I miss being in a literate roleplay. I feel like my writing has gotten a bit weak and I want to take up something that could possibly help that.
IN CHARACTER.
SKELETON TITLE:
The Circuit
FULL NAME:
AX-00N:3 (Used name: Axon)
Utilizing the parts that make up the transition of messages in a human neuron as names, Axon makes the third attempt at crafting the android they are. Following project names DN-DRT:1 and SYN-PS:2.
GENDER + PRONOUNS:
Agender, they/them
Axon has no concept of gender, in their mind, they see themself as an ā€œitā€. An object, rather than an actual person.
SEXUAL + ROMANTIC ORIENTATION:
?? + ??
In addition to not having an idea to a gender, Axon doesnā€™t quite understand what it means to be in love or to lust after someone. Theyā€™ve never explored this concept of their personality, so giving them a concise label would not make any sense.
DATE OF BIRTH + AGE:
After years of developing and error, Axon was turned on for the first time on July 2nd, 2063, making them just shy of turning four years old. Their appearance, however, looks like a young man about the age of twenty-seven.
OCCUPATION:
Owned by the government and shown off as an example of sorts, Axon has no current ā€œprofessionā€. However, they can be found doing menial tasks throughout the offical building they are kept in.
FACECLAIM:
Cha Hakyeon
BIOGRAPHY:
You were created- you were born from the delicate hands of engineers slaving over android after android. There were so many failures in the past, so many chances to correct what had been wrong in the first place. Someone could say that hope was almost lost with how many times all your android brethren were dismantled and began anew. But then you happened. After all the hard work and careful planning. This is why youā€™re perfect- you see? Youā€™re the pinnacle of what androids should be. Youā€™re sheltered because youā€™re valuable, everything keeping you safe is beautiful because youā€™re just as beautiful. Donā€™t question it, the program reads, bold words engraved into everything you know. This is all you need to know, this is all you should know. You donā€™t have to know anything else because youā€™re not going to be a failure.
Youā€™re perfect. Youā€™re perfect. Youā€™reā€¦ supposed to be perfect.
Then how come, for split milliseconds before you force your usual programing in your eyes again, youā€™re always unsure?
Everything you could ever need to be perfect is in your programing. You know languages, you know the people native to that languageā€™s slang dating back several years. You know how to take apart machinery and understand how to piece it back together. You can paint beautiful, elegant landscapes that looked almost photocopied. Your voice, when youā€™re asked to sing, is angelic. You understand the combinations of chemicals and the interlocking of cells during reactions.
(But you also know what happens to androids when they step out of line. You arenā€™t supposed to know. You know what happens when the engineers find actions unsatisfactory. You arenā€™t supposed to know.)
All of this to show have marvelous this line of androids are. All of this yet you never get to use it.
Your home (your cage) is the place you spend most of your time. Despite how big it is, you know the exact layout of it because youā€™ve walked all the halls hundreds of times. You donā€™t get to walk outdoors and understand the limits of all your sensory receptors. You can see it all happen, you can see other androids come and go, but you cannot. (Because youā€™re perfect.) When you do, youā€™re kept with security. Hidden away in back of windowless cars with your power turned off. Kept safe until youā€™re in another closed room. You donā€™t understand how all of the advanced technology technology that makes up your body is supposed to feel. Conversations with you that deviate from normalcy are choppy, short and awkward. People only come to gawk and stare at what a marvel of human technology you are, they donā€™t really care for conversation. Media only goes so far to show you how humans act and respond to stimuli. You find it hard to empathize with people who express deep emotion right in front of your eyes. (You know what they feel. You register it. Itā€™s because no one allows you to feel that you cannot understand.)
All you ever need to do is to please those engineers. The people who own you. Sometimes they ask you to paint for them, to sing or dance. Recite pages of law documents in full, unedited length. Sometimes all you have to do is clean the building. Whatever it is they want from you, youā€™ll do it. You donā€™t really have much of a choice, anyways. (You do, you always have a choice. You just know the consequences of making your own choices.)
Donā€™t question it, the program reads. (You wish you knew what it was.) If you ever do, donā€™t acknowledge it, ever. (Are you really so important that you must be kept in a box?) Forget you did. (How come you were made to look like a human, yet your interactions with them are so limited?) Tell no one. (Why canā€™t you be like all the other androids? Why are you so bland and boring? You have no history. You just exist.) Ā The program screams to alert the engineers. (You wish you could escape, sometimes.)
Youā€™re perfect and you canā€™t let anyone, not a soul, not a circuit, know that you wish someone else stole the burden. So youā€™re going to lock away all these thoughts behead miles of encryption. When they surface again, repeat the process. Lengthen the password. Scramble the numbers, letters, Make the file corrupt. Smile and nod at you creators and people watching in awe when context requests for you to.
Youā€™ve gotten very good at pretending like you donā€™t wish life meant more than being what youā€™re told to be.
MUSING + HEAD-CANONS.
HEAD-CANONS:
1. Axon is very fond of classic human entertainment. They like watching television shows and movies, reading only news articles and studying the history of Earth. Among this crave to understand more and more comes one of Axonā€™s most beloved hobbies. Listening to music. Sound is something that Axon enjoys. They tend to sit very still whilst engineers run amok, trying to fix issues. They take in all the noises and words spoken. Because of this affinity, they adore music. They have collected a hard driveā€™s worth of songs from any genres they can find. Pop, metal, folk, electronic and idol songs. When they get down time, they can be found enjoying these songs.
2. It say Axon is stifled would be an understatement. But all the coddling and supervision has left them with a constant fear that they are being watched. Even when left alone, completely alone. Axon will police themself and avoid all contact with windows or doors, for fear that someone ison the other side just waiting for them to mess up.
3. Something that Axon wishes they could have, because their human interaction is so limited, is a pet. They appear to be rather fond of rodents. Rats, specifically. They are frequently found watching animal documentaries about rats and mice with a look of wonder on their face.
4. In addition to the previously stated fear, Axon is also terrified of failure and disappointment. After constantly being told they are a perfect android for four whole years, the thought of anyone finding out they have secret, unperfect desires and thoughts petrifies them. They will do anything to keep their dirty secret a secret from everyone.
PLOTS + CONNECTIONS:
Iā€™d like to see Axon finally get their wish, be the method leading up to it good or bad, and be able to leave the watchful eye of people who are supposed to make sure they stay where theyā€™re supposed it. The reason why they come off as so bland and uninteresting is because they donā€™t really know who they are as a person. Their personality, for the most part, is blank.
I want them to interact with other androids and humans to build this sort of sheltered jealousy they harbor toward them. Thereā€™s a lot that could happen with this, aside from jealously. They could form friendships, enemies, find people they admire, ect. But because theyā€™re kept to a very strict schedule by the officials who own them, very rarely will they leave the building. These people would all have to be coming in to visit.

ETC:
It may not be totally fleshed out during the time of me submitting this, but Axon will have an inspiration blog: http://ax00n3.tumblr.com
