Need everyone to relisten to the radio broadcast at 28:36 and then go back to Bon's odd line about being "burnt to fiber" at 01:05:22.

"...when fire broke out at the man's clothing store next door." 👀👀👀👀

I already mentioned this briefly in the floorplan post, but it deserves to be its own post because I hadn't noticed it before that and I think it's really neat.

Throughout the series, we get several pretty good shots of Mark's split fishtank. The red fish is on the right (the side closer to the couch/TV) and the blue fish is on the left (the side closer to the front door).

However, when innie Mark is having his weird reintegration flash/hallucination at the beginning of 2.06:

We only see the left half of the tank (which would actually be the right side if we were seeing it from the other direction like usual). The two fish have switched places.

LIKE from a framing standpoint, having specifically the blue fish (blue for innie Mark, red for outie) in the foreground of this shot makes sense, but that could easily have been accomplished by just filming from a slightly different angle to get the other side of the tank instead. I love that this goes a step further than that - the blue fish is in the space normally occupied by the red one, and the kitchenette wall of MDR is clipping through Mark's house.

One of my favourite details from the film is the reversal of power between them - cued by Lestat´s recitative.

We're all the way in June and I'm still thinking about the costume design in Sinners

[thatswhatsushesaid]

i'm rewatching the original jaws (1975) movie and somehow it never occurred to me just how gay quint and hooper are while comparing their various scars and injuries below deck

like, yes, i realize that hooper is feeling particularly emasculated by quint's constant needling, and quint is threatened by hooper's educational background and relative wealth, and the intent behind this scene was to bridge the class divide between them, but, well.

something something elaborate rituals allowing them to touch the bodies of other men something

meanwhile token heterosexual martin brody is just watching all this happen right in front of his salad beer like

no, this probably isn't the time to bring up your appendectomy scar, chief.
