The masks are actually my favourite detail of this scene. Birdie having a mesh one ala Lana del rey is so clever and thought out tells so much about her character

@ameliaschwarz1595 Жыл бұрын

Also the fact she says "ugh I can finally breathe again" when they have that vaccine thing and can take off the masks, even though she wasn't wearing a proper mask in the first place lol

@insheepsclothing5574 Жыл бұрын

Birdie was a great representation of the "dumb influencer" character: her biggest flaw, that we see multiple times throughout the movie, is that she just doesn't understand things. She's just dumb, but not in a way that make you roll your eyes at her idiocy, she is still entertaining. I also like how, with her and Whiskey, the movie was able to give us two very different "bimbo" characters: Whiskey plays with her looks and use Duke to launch her own carreer the same way Duke uses her meanwhile Birdie knows that all she has for herslef is her looks, the girl probably couldn't cook herself an egg and would be dead in two weeks if it wasn't for Peggy.

The way Rian weaved the pandemic into the story was so smart. He clearly didn't want to re-traumatize people, as he used a light-enough touch for most to stomach, while also telling us so much about the characters just in how they reacted to it, their masks, how they wore it, whether they wore it, etc. Brilliant.

"Traumatize" and "Terrorize"? The heck are you people talking about!? Doing the simple necessary things for a limited timespan to protect one another's well-being can hardly be called that. All through this period, I was thinking that people whining and bitching about it better get rid of this snowflake attitude, because this wont have been the last pandemic we've experienced. The really disturbing thing about it all, was to see how little it takes to rattle so many people - there wont be many of them left if a more serious global crisis takes place. 😅

You're right that Duke barrelling towards the tuktuk shows how inconsiderate and arrogant he is, but they were both driving in the middle of the dock. They drive on the right in Greece (and all of mainland Europe), just like they do in the US, so Duke driving on the right wouldn't have made the tuktuk dodge unless the tuktuk was driving on the wrong side of the dock.

Absolutely amazing to hear about the specific movements and costume choices form the director! It was so engaging to see how much he cares for this film and his obvious passion for every piece of the production that went into it! One of the things I personally really loved about both Knives Out and Glass Onion was the difference in the lighting. In Knives Out, the coloring was more muted and brown, and felt heavier and denser overall, almost claustrophobic - which makes sense as most of the movie takes place inside the house. While in Glass Onion, the colors were so much brighter and lighter, with the use of more blue and gold shades in the color grading, it felt so much more open and almost sunsoaked - which, again, made sense as most of the movie takes place outside (or in a room with a lot of natural light) in Greece on a beach

@@MAKESZENZE I was kinda drunk writing this comment 😅 I was hoping it wouldn’t get a lot of likes loool - “just enough” is the wrong wording - it was a LOT 😅 It actually wasn’t too much social commentary for me - I still had fun with the rest of the movie and then it got piled on at the end. But I also agree with the social commentary and think it’s important! So I say - pile away! But hey! You’re entitled to your opinion! Thanks for your comment ☺️

I greatly appreciated the portrayal of masking culture with individuals in the pandemic and their distinct personalities. Each individual's attitude toward masking matches their personality perfectly. None of it felt stereotyped or out of place. It was just pure honesty.

I watched this movie with my parents and they hated it because they thought it wasn't as good as the first one, they thought the reveals were a let-down and they felt it had plot holes. I didn't care because I was having such a great time. This is such an amazing sequel and it makes so much sense to me after seeing this video WHY it feels that way. Rian Johnson (for better or worse) is clearly a director that is always asking "how can we do this differently?" I see it so much in Glass Onion based on how the mysteries are presented differently, how the setting looks and feels and even what genres he plays with. There are lots of things in this movie that don't make sense in original knives out and I think that is freaking amazing and just... Well done, Rian Johnson, this is one of the best sequels ever made.

I think it's so short-sighted to judge this movie based on the first Knives Out. He's on record saying he wanted to do something completely different with this one, & he's setting up a murder mystery franchise where each installment can stand on its own, just like the Agatha Christie books.

@PincessSakura9 Жыл бұрын

Just watched the movie yesterday and it was a really fun watch. So many bits and pieces to catch before the reveal. It keeps the audience engaged to not want to miss anything (any small gesture, conversation, etc) but at the same time as Rian says, they try to be economical with the amount of information they're trying to feed to the audience so that the clues aren't as obvious but there are nuggets in most things that they do. Really good movie!

Just finished Glass Onion. I’ll be honest, I saw it, knew it exactly what it was, got excited because I loved Knives out. When watching the first few scenes thinking, “it’s a sequel to a masterpiece, it’s not gonna be as good, but at least I’ll get to see Benny again.” I can say with confidence that I was dead wrong. I’m looking forward to Rian Johnson’s next masterpiece.

I love Rian’s thoughts on Agatha Christie and her books! I’m such an Agatha fan, and so many people who haven’t read her books presume that they’re going to be dull and repetitive. But, as Rian says, she totally played around with different genres and subverted expectations. I’d love Benoit Blanc to solve as many mysteries as Poirot. I want Daniel Craig to still be starring in these movies when he’s in his 80s!
