sometimes a family is a Witch, the other witches she killed when she was alive, her girlfriend the grim reaper, and a hot topic kid together on a road trip in the afterlife

I also think that all the "um okay knives out & glass onion were good. Wrap it up now" posts are so funny. You're tripping if you think there's not going to be at least five Benoit Blanc films lol

[liarsblade]

What part of "the detective franchise is back babey" did you not get. There were 14 Poirot films and that's not counting the show which was a standard season for most of its run. 69 Columbo episodes. Like it or hate it you are going to be seeing Benoit Blanc until the day he stops making money and then some.

He hasn't even been on a train yet for fucks sake

HE HASN'T EVEN BEEN ON A TRAIN YET!!!!

I loved that the first trailer for A Haunting In Venice looks like a generic horror movie until the final shot reveals that Hercule Poirot is there, and I want more trailers that disguise the true nature of the film before the very end. Specifically I want to see a trailer for a sappy rom-com that ends with the main couple about to be wed when the priest asks if there are any objections, only for the doors to slam open and reveal Benoit Blanc standing there about to make that ceremony a fiasco to remember

Just watched "see how they run" I love when movies are good. I loveee when movies are good. This is a murder mystery for people who like murder mysteries. It's like, it affectionately nudges how formulaic it is. "It's a whodunit, you've seen one you've seen em all" and you have! It's predictable in a good way it's just really well structured. It literally just tells you what's gonna happen later if you're paying attention. It plays with the genre in a way that you can tell the creators have a lot of love and care for it, it's not one of those movies that feels like it resents what it is. You know

[tlirsgender]

See how they run knows what it is and it's more of a love letter to the whodunit than like, mockery of what it's based on. It's like cheeky but it isn't irony poisoned. I had a really good time. Really scratched the autistic about writing part of my brain, I kept noticing little nods to other detective stories

Idea: Bertie Wooster, though a series of hilarious misunderstandings, ends up on the murder island during And Then There Were None.

[a-book-of-creatures]

“There may be a murderer on this island, sir”, said Jeeves, “and that murderer can only be one of us”.

“I say, would say the imagination boggles at the thought?”

“I believe so, sir”.

I checked. He was right. It boggled.

[downtroddendeity]

Given that the people on the island in And Then There Were None are all people the killer believes have committed murders that cannot be punished by the legal system, there are four ways I can see this going down:

The series of hilarious misunderstandings that caused Bertie Wooster to be here were as much of a surprise to U.N. Owen as to everyone else. Bertie’s narrative field asserts itself and he Mr. Beans his way through a series of close-call hijinks until Jeeves’ machinations eventually reveal that all the supposed victims were still alive and the whole thing was just an elaborate prank designed as a convoluted way to escape an unwanted engagement.

The series of hilarious misunderstandings has caused U.N. Owen to erroneously believe Bertie Wooster has committed murder. Wooster and Jeeves respectively bumble and buttle their way through foiling several murder attempts and proving that all the other surviving victims are also innocent and U.N. Owen’s belief that they had all gotten away with murder was also based on a different series of hilarious misunderstandings. U.N. Owen is deeply embarrassed and goes home to rethink their life.

Bertie Wooster is haunted by the silent, terrible crimes he committed in the trenches of the Somme.

Jeeves is very good at solving problems. Jeeves has solved a lot of problems.

Barmy Fungy Fips has committed a murder, and Bertie agrees to take his place on the island, pretending to be him, on the belief that this is somehow helping Barmy escape an unwanted engagement

Sometimes Midjourney Sucks

It's usually all fun and memes here at @solasyoulittleshit but lately I've been having to defend myself over my Midjourney pictures with people thinking I'm stealing art from other artists.

Nope! It's mine! And sometimes it sucks:
