Knives Out (2019) and Glass Onion (2022) having the two main leads as an iconic gay detective and a working class woman/ of color whose combo is so menacingly whipsmart and fun they turn rich people games in on its head eventually leading to said rich people's downfall is the most based thing about these movies

aannndd were back!

Feel free to ignore me if it doesn't fit your train of thought, but WHAT IF Diomede was just Penelope's random neighbor who has enough free time to help Penelope with her shenanigans ? "Dio, can you help me to mow the lawn?" "Yeah Penelope, i'm on it" "can you watch Telemachus while I'm in the lab?" "Sure." "Dio, there's man mermaid in my pool who robbed my fish." "Okay, i'm coming." Yeah he would be cool enough to not be shocked by Ody lmao. On his free time, Diomede is an Olympic swimming champion, so the two could share a common occupation (no surprise: Odysseus is a good opponent to train with.)

LMAO yeah I'll take that. Neighbor with too much time on his hands is always a funny trope. It would also be neat he was Telemachus' godfather

I was thinking that given his military background in the myths, I was also gonna give him a military background here :0

The boys asked me, “Can you stay with us? And what you’ve talked about, building up the voice.. can we do that?” So I did, I went on the X Factor tour with them - it was five weeks. And I made the five of them a schedule, one hour each. And we then worked every day at the hotels. They’d come in and I’d have time to build up their voices. Because they were so young - the voice is not at all fully developed - so you needed to be careful. And after that I was with them from the beginning to the end. I actually only finished this year, with Louis. He was the last of my boys. I then helped them in their solo careers, to get them ready, get their bands ready, and be there with them in the beginning. So that’s Louis.. he got set back due to Corona and the death of his mother, tragic circumstances. This year I finished [the voice work] with him, as the last one. So it's all great, they're all self-reliant now, and.. what is it you say, touch wood, that none of them have lost their voices. Once you build it built up, you can't really lose it. You may get tired, but you can't lose it. At least now they know how… or they can call me. But they’ve got this.

(translation from danish)

metamorphosis. [ mĕt′ə-môr′fə-sĭs ] Dramatic change in the form and often the habits of an animal during its development after birth or hatching.

Glass Onion is such a fun movie but it doesn't pull its punches, either. The way it sets up Andi as the cold, stand-offish character and Miles as the benevolent, rich hippie. Then the twist happens and the perspective changes. We know Andi is actually Helen and we learn that Helen is angry and grieving and scared. We learn that Miles is not benevolent but manipulative - and his friends very much believe they will lose that friendship/money if they don't go along with his ideas. (They saw him kick Andi from their company, even when they don't know she's dead.)

And I love Peg. I love that she's the only thing keeping Birdie Jay in line, but she can't even DO that. Birdie is dumb, but she's smart enough to have a secret phone for years and Peg doesn't know. When she lists her resume, it's "Birdie, Birdie, a brief stint with retail and Birdie again." So there was a moment when Peg knew Birdie was trouble and left, but still went back (presumably for money or status or just because retail sucks.) But that decision to go back, to humor the rich and stupid is going to ruin Peg in the end. And it's just so delicious.

And the scientist! Lionel! He's smart, he takes the pandemic seriously, he knows Klear is dangerous. But he still chooses Miles' money and he's still going to be ruined because of it. He was a school teacher! Of course he chose Miles' basically unlimited bank account.

It's great. The two characters I sympathize with the most are both shown to have at least some notion that they shouldn't be doing what they're doing. Which is why I like them! And they are not spared when Miles' empire comes crashing down. They threw their lot in with him and so will fall when he falls.
