getting a job as a driver in those trolley problems so I can apply the brakes (there are no brakes) (I can do nothing to change this institution from the inside) (instead I have merely become complicit in this endless cycle of violence)

Exactly why the lie of the good police officer is so infuriating

[myiliterallyhavenolifegoals]

the fact that Edwin lived in the early 1900s is a fantastic source of comedic potential. he's just constantly saying things that he doesn't realise are completely batshit insane, and the others are just left utterly floored.

like they're all talking and Crystal mentions she's tried cocaine once on a wild night out, and Edwin, who used to get that shit medically prescribed at the drop of a hat is like ??? okay?? hope you felt better, it always used to help me when I had a cold too :) charles why are you laughing?

[carebeardean]

do you ever think about how this was the first time Edwin laughed in 70 years. or are you normal

[jamesevans0]

okay i’m done after this (probably)

[that-trans-autistic-guy]

a black screen saying "girls night" and immediately showing three girls sitting on a curb completely traumatized is in fact one of the top ten funniest moments in film. no doubt, no debate, change my mind

I love that their office in Port Townsend was just an ironing board

I have long said that in order for any comedy to truly succeed as a story, there has to be meat beneath the jokes. There has to be that moment when it is not funny any more.

This. This is that moment.

#honestly even though this is one of the best scripts there ever has been  #that is the greatest line  #it’s /groundbreaking/ in terms of how it frames vengeance quests; temptation beats; inigo as a comedic figure throughout the movie  #you know because this is a happy book (film) that inigo will get his revenge  #but will he get JUSTICE  #will he get ABSOLUTION  #will he get CATHARSIS  #those are the things we don’t know  #and that line sells it more than any of the previous scene (x)

First meeting.

(You guys should really watch Dead Boy Detectives on Netflix. It's really good (and really queer))
