DON’T TALK TO ME I’M FREAKING OUT

So this is where I had to pause. And just sort of linger for a moment on what, you know, the, the power of this moment, which was really cool to realize like how big moving is for kids...You, it's a perfect, I mean, it's, it's the perfect storytelling way to show the disempowerment of children. Like, you, you, you can't control this. You cannot, you parents need a job change and move. You were going to lose your teachers, your friends, your community. And it's like and, you can't do anything about it. Like, really? Because you're just a kid. And I thought this is such a great place for storytelling. I mean like, maybe like one of my favorite places is to to to put the, the audience and the characters right. Into, you know, the, the child situation, the children's mindset. You can't, and I think, you know, it's, it's easy to forget that, that kids feel just as much if not more than grownups, right? But there's, they just, they don't have any power. They can't do anything about it. They just....they're stuck with the parents they got, or the par or the, you know, being whatever their, their life situation is, the class they're in, the country they're in, they're just stuck there. They don't get that choice. And, and yet they feel just as much. And I think that is so beautiful. And that is like one of the central, you know, the, the, the best parts of children's storytelling or, or, or, or movies or television shows about kids, is that you can, you can have a moment like this right. Where you really just, and then, you know, for me, I had to think about like, and then where does this episode go? And it goes in a place that really, and we'll get I And, you know, I guess in this next episode, really it, where it repowers the kids through their love. Yeah. Which is just a weird storytelling choice. -Rider

I think what I adored most about nope is how jeanjacket, as a predator animal, functions in a way that makes sense for a creature designed the way she is. She spends most of her time dormant in a cloud, only leaving her camouflage to hunt, and she doesn’t ever attack without reason, and I think the most brilliant thing about the eye contact being what makes her go berserk is that that makes a shit ton of sense for a creature like her.

With her being shaped the way she is, the only way she Can attack someone is while making eye contact— and if another one of her species was to do that? That would be a declaration of all out war. That’s a clear sign of aggression, and the fact that the movie plays into that— the fact that the stadium Jupe built is shaped like an eye, the fact that she flares up at the balloon at first in a clear show of aggression, of fear, trying to scare off what she presumes to be a threat…

And of course, the fact that it just plays into the theme that not everything is a spectacle to be stared at, that people can be destroyed by seeking fame or fortune, that tragedy can’t be tamed and that the past will eat you alive if you’re not careful— and that it all fucking fits flawlessly into her design as a creature. It just. Nope is The Movie Ever.

Does this make sense

That lighting is wonderful. It's like warm. And It feels like kind of secretive. Like it's nighttime. And It's just warmly lit. It feels like it's candle lit. like there's something about it that feels candle lit. It's gorgeous. -Rider

BENJAMIN “DEX” POINDEXTER aka BULLSEYE in Daredevil 3x08 “Upstairs/Downstairs”

Jess’s ‘bad boy’ label to me is so, so funny. He is constantly reading, works two jobs, saved enough money to buy a car—but he’s the ultimate bad boy in the town’s eyes. Let’s be clear, the most ‘rebellious’ thing he did was the chalk outline outside Doose’s. Boy did magic tricks for his crush, why is he labeled a bad boy? 😭
