watching cruella for the first time and have to put down notes to cope with the frustrations [then added hindsight thoughts in brackets}
why is her hair black and white from birth (that one guard giving meaningful looks, knows something? is he the dad or smth cause he's bald (as a diversion)) [not her dad, so why the hair from birth]
why didn't the movie address the bullying at the school [contrived to show the world being against her]
standard stupid kid decisions [to move plot along]
why would the dogs go for the mother [ah, the dog whistle]
why would the medallion get dropped [contriv plot movealong]
why would she kick the fountain kid, he was just standing there looking at her [contriv spunky]
"just a thief", what did she steal (she hadn't stolen anything yet: stupid dialogue)
whyyyy dye your black and white hair red, when you would need to balance the dye, instead of just dyeing the white half black
why did she run away from the shop as well, nobody knew she was friends with the thieves, and now the owner had recognised her: they just wanted the sequence?
movie dogs just convenient props (as is usual for movies)
are they only going to steal her necklace, surely not [didn't say, and then there weren't any jewelry in the safe]
is she written to keep saying "thank you" so she can then say it in a climactic moment to reveal who cruella really is [surprisingly, no]
of course she didn't actually kill the baroness' dalmatians, couldn't have that
ok but why did her mom take/have the necklace (just to have it be the key to the secret revealing box, and being a red herring for what was actually taken)
geh, monologue to explain the revelation for the audience
she kept saying thank you to the baroness, but never to her friends [ok, finally she did, one on one to one of them]
at the final ball, isn't she going to stick out like a sore thumb with the red hair, that isn't a disguise, why did she change into that - to be estelle at the final stand off? [ok, she needed to be estelle to be seen getting moydered by the baroness]
wait, aren't pongo and perdita siblings then. o no.
so, how is this person then going to want to make puppy coat for real? "sorry, we gotta cull them since they're inbred"??
