#also tangerine and ladybug are fucking because tangerine survived

bullet train gave me fucking brain rot, okay, just bear with me and sorry if anyone has done this before but fuck it.

ladybug is actually so fucking proficient

he says it's bad luck, because of his newfound desire to not kill people or try not to (and I truly think it all, therapy, choosing to try not to kill people, just snatch and grab jobs, all came to a head when Lemon shot him, for several reason that were briefly touched on in the movie but, whatever, that's another post) but he is SCARILY proficient.

Here's my headcanon and explanation why he ends up killing people EVEN WHEN trying not to, EVEN WHEN he pauses to talk them out of it, which is really just asking them if they REALLY wanna fight cause he KNOWS how it'll end, and if he doesn't win....he's sorta resigned to it. Anyway.

My entire family consists of skilled fighters that have been fighting their entire life.

So I KNOW after years - and ladybug has been in this business for a LONG time - a fight, and navigating a fight, just becomes another one of your senses, it is so natural your body and mind just DO

Every instance he gets the high ground because he's so practiced, even being out for a little while for normal jobs, even while being clumsy, even with his so called bad luck.

If he hadnt been trying to ACTIVELY not kill them, based just on intuition from years of practice, he would have killed them before they even had a chance to kill him.

If he hadnt disliked guns, they wouldn't have even gotten close to him.

He's vigilant, and quick, and innovative--when he closed the door on tangerines arm, when he baited hornet, talking her into grabbing the antidote, then QUICKLY grabbed it from her and used it on himself, even before when he injected her with the poison.

When Lemon shot him in the flashback, he just reacted with exasperation because he had been shot before, probably multiple times from his reaction to it.

He's made out to be a lot less formidable than he actually is, and the reason he comes across that way is because of his nonchalance and resignation to the situation at hand and the resignation leads to him being goofy and clumsy and careless in the moment.

And he has so much resignation because of his years of experience, and the shit he's been through, much like The Elder.

He couldve killed Hornet when he had the briefcase above her, and chose to give her a chance by talking to her, he couldve killed lemon in the beginning when he was sitting in front of him, and gave another chance by talking to him.

He killed the Wolf, accident and instinct, he killedtangerine mortally wounded tangerine.

And all of these are highly skilled killers.

The skill it took to throw a knife that clean, that precisely, from over 6 feet away on a fast moving train, while crouching, and hit the target in the heart with enough depth he sunk immediately, and not hurt lemon at all in the process? Even lemon was surprised.

Bad luck, or is it just a resignation to kill, instinct, and extreme proficiency.

Bad luck or just not caring because he's been in this business for so long, left it, just to return and realize, fuck, he really didn't miss this chaos.

Bad luck or muscle memory?

No, Ladybug is one of the most proficient hitmen on that train and I wonder how ruthless he used to be before he decided to become a new man.

And he also just has really good luck, who the fuck survives a train splitting and crashing like that? The fuck.

I finally watched bullet Train and man, that is a good movie. It was kind of startling to go from the first half of the movie being a straight up comedy to everyone dying. I know Tangerine is the only one who actually died, (aside from Prince who is literally the worst) but I seriously thought Lemon and that other dude was dead. I had to pause the movie and just stare at the wall for a few seconds when Lemon died I was so upset. And then Tangerine found his body and yeah basically every moment between the two, when they found the other dead, when Lemon saw the truck carrying Tangerine’s and used it to kill Prince, I was near to crying if not outright crying. I was emotionally devestated during that last half hour. Also, it felt like a movie that was a longer than two hours, or at least, a lot happened during those two hours. I loved all the hints we got about stuff. Also the sheer fate/karma of it all was fucking beautiful and also hilarious. I saw most of the plot points coming except for the fact that the white death hired them all and that Prince is his daughter, which I should’ve seen coming. Also the surprise Ryan Reynolds cameo was fun.

Ladybug is the best. He’s a disaster man trying to not be a disaster and the entire movie shit is just happening to him and he has to try and survive. Also his face and voice when he said, “but I dont wanna carry the seven sorrows :(” was perfect. There is so much about this movie that I love and my one complaint is that Tangerine died, except not really because story wise it was the perfect choice but it also emotionally devastated me.

Oh, and the flashback from the water’s perspective. Impeccable. Anyways yeah, I fucking love this movie and it’s amazing and I don’t know how I’m going properly enjoy other stuff after this.

As much as I love (most) of the characters Ladybug is my favorite. Literally 85% of the best scenes have him in it. The other 15% are scenes with Tangerine and or Lemon.

#ladybug was also incredibly relatable #by the second time the mascot showed up I saw sure whoever was under there was an assassin/criminal too #but I did briefly wonder if I was just being paranoid #but nope #called it #anyways yeah I fucking love this movie it’s amazing #bullet train #I can’t believe I didn’t recognize julia roberts #like her voice sounded familiar #and she looked familiar #but I honestly didn’t realize it was her until her name popped up in the credits

oh my GOD when I was watching bullet train I thought wow this guy REALLY looks like bad bunny. well I looked up the cast (to find out who played the strong brit with the mustache because he was sexy) and it IS bad bunny. god I'm smart. he slayed also if you must know. he did slay.

the brit is played by british actor aaron taylor-johnson and his name makes me think of anya taylor joy. sorry. same initials and one of their names is the same. he's of english-russian jewish descent Wow the slay. um he's hot and he gets perpetually more dishevelled throughout the movie and his hair goes from a fancy slicked-back hairstyle to being messy and CURLYYY it was so cute!!! his shirt and vest also get like unbuttoned and messed up and. hot men are real guys. 🙏 also I looked through a few of his imdb photos from other movies and um mustaches look really good on him. he should stick with that. (BLUSH) I did not write all that!!! (embarrassed)

look I'm gonna get all my thoughts about the movie out in one post:

speaking of bad bunny's character, he was so cool!! he deserved better!!!!!!!!!!!!!! he got a criminally short amount of screen time.

wardrobe department did a bang-up job. with the wolf especially but everyone was dressed really cool

uh, brad pitt looked like cody ko. his name in the movie was not brad pitt but I'm going to continue calling him brad pitt because, come on. also brad pitt at the end of the movie telling the prince something along the lines of "you should try this one book called 'surviving borderline personality disorder' it's a great book it's really helped me" was funny. I thought haha I do that (have that)

loved this film's men-with-piercings agenda, wholeheartedly support it

ALSO CHANNING TATUM PLAYS LIKE, A JOKE GAY CHARACTER??? THIS WAS SO BAFFLING TO WITNESS. okay so, brad pitt's character comes up to him at one point and asks "you wanna make a quick 300 bucks?" and channing tatum is like "is this like, a sexual thing, or...?" and that was FUNNY and also reasonable because like! that is one of the few things you'd assume if a stranger on public transport said that to you!! it is! but then someone else comes along and says something to him, can't remember what, and he also goes "is this a sexual thing, or...?" and that was LESS funny because of the repetition and because of the situation being more outlandish (forgive me I don't remember what it was exactly). and then the aforementioned handsome brit walks past him and says something and channing tatum goes "I do so LOVE an accent." and at one point he says of a male character (can't remember who) "he has SUCH a nice walk" WHAT WAS THE POINT OF THAT????? SO WEIRD. personally I think the movie had enough (maybe more than enough) comedic relief moments without it requiring a fucking gay joke character, in 2022!!! but what do I know.

this is going to be SO mean and I'm sorry but every time I saw her I thought this: the actress who plays "the prince" looks like, and ESPECIALLY in this movie, looks like if you asked an AI to render "off-brand barbie ferreira." I know it's fucked up. I'm sorry. but that's just what she looks like. in this movie at least.

um I teared up multiple times, the reveal that tangerine and lemon are actually brothers freakin' got to me, man. the whole time it felt like hahahahah it's just a joke/business alias and it's funny because haha they don't LOOK like they're related but then. ah. it was emotional I liked it. sob sob sob

good movie. I'd recommend it if you want to get outta the house and have some fun in your miserable life and also fund one of the few movies out there right now that ISN'T a marvel movie or a children's animation.

if you read this whole thing and are wondering "why do all the characters in this movie have weird names?" that worry is, heh, warranted, but it's because they're secret agents on a mission and these are all their codenames. brad pitt's character's codename is ladybug.
