Things I desperately want to see in The Shards TV show
That I probably won't get to 😭
Transition shots between modern day and 1980s LA
Transition shots between 2020s and 1980s Bret
2020s Bret still having dark hair despite Rigney's Bret look - that's my disgusting little liar boy and I want him to be caught out
While I'm enjoying my pipe dream of there actually being an actor to play adult Bret: I think when Bret's dreaming about/imagining The Trawler he should be played by the same actor who plays 2020s Bret (though obviously with his face covered)
Gratuitous Steven Reinhardt turtleneck shot
Sleep paralysis demon Matt Kellner
Bret and Matt making friends in summer school (my babyyyyyy)
When I thought Bret was going to be a big, stocky boy I kind of wanted to see him pick Matt up like a ragdoll, but now that he's ~5'7" I would still like to see that thank you
Some kind of montage that encapsulates the beginning of chapter 9. Yes, Mr Ellis, say more about how your upbringing doomed every relationship you've ever been in
Susan very obviously having a crush on Bret and trying really, really hard to act like she doesn't
Susan very, very obviously liking all the things about Robert that he has in common with Bret
Some shots of Debbie being sad when no one's looking at her, please, my girl
A huge tonal shift after Matt's death
A huge character shift after the bungalow scene
Showing the incongruity between the narration and what's actually happening after Bret's "encounters" with Terry. His dead-inside baby-face while he cleans himself up with shaking hands while the voice of a man who's written some form of this encounter into every book he's ever published says, "It didn't bother me."
A shot that implies someone pushed Terry off the balcony (because he deserves it)
Ryan looking like he wants to be swallowed up by the floor when he's at the diner with Bret and Robert and they're arguing loudly
Bret being genuinely unhinged in that scene
Bret coming across as extremely unstable in front of both Abigail and Dr Croft, but neither of them seeming to care or do anything about it
The actor playing Robert's father in flashbacks to be the same actor used to take family photos for the Ellis household
"The Trawler" crying as he attacks Susan and Thom
Bret looking hideously fucked-up after fighting with Robert
Bret hugging his mom and crying
The wound on Bret's arm to look undeniably like a bite mark, but I only want to see a shot of it from Susan's POV
Adult Thom at the book-signing (aaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh)
