SEVERANCE. S1E2. HALF LOOP dir. Ben Stiller

[human-centipuppy]

Stinkyyyy

[incredipuppy]

These are all the notes I took during panels on the second day of the Salute to Cobra Kai convention:

Gianni DeCenzo

- “I’ve got muscles somewhere. There in there somewhere”

- “Demetri has some serious game”

- Gianni had a protective harness in the scene where he gets kicked in the balls and as soon as Khalil learned about that, he said he was going to try as hard as possible to break it

- Eli and Dem were both socially awkward and loners and they met and were platonic soulmates. He imagines that they met at coding camp and that’s where they became best friends

- Gianni said he would want an edible arrangement is someone broke his hand and compared Tory in that scene to Emperor Palatine

- Jacob and Gianni are trying to write every week and are trying to write movies or shows but they keep getting distracted

- “What 16 year old has premium yelp status? It’s Demetri and that’s it.”

- I asked what aspects/arcs Gianni wish could’ve been explored and he said prior to season 6, he would’ve said I wish we saw a more bad boy side of Demetri. He acknowledged how when Demetri decided he was going to be a “cool kid”, he just changed his hairstyle just like Hawk because that’s the only other person who’s really made that switch. (“Oh yeah a new haircut. I’m gonna do the same thing. That’s definitely what I was missing”)

- He mentioned how he liked that Demetri never really compromised on who he was as a person even as he did get better at karate

- They referred to Demetri and Hawk as a toxic, abuse relationship whenever they were asked about Hawk breaking Demetri’s arm

- He improvised “That felt good. Bitch!” because it felt like a Kyler thing to say and he wanted Demetri to stoop down to Kyler’s level

- The cast that Gianni wore in s3 was a real cast from a doctor, and the art department team would seal his arm up in it with extra plaster between scenes

- He neither confirmed nor denied a binary brothers spin off and said he would love to come back to play Demetri

- Gianni said he would’ve beaten up Demetri too because of how much he mentioned MIT in season 6

- Gianni imagines that the Binary Bros go off to college and become millionaires

- “As long as he has his binary bro, it will all work out”

- Demetri has come to really love karate and he’ll likely always to karate on some level

- When Demetri sold Johnny the phone, Billy flicked a bottle cap at Gianni and it almost broke a camera

- Favorite scene to film was the weapon demonstration in s4. He trained for 3 months to do 2 takes in the scene. At one point, the weapon flew out of his hand but he managed to catch it so it looked like he knew what he was doing

- Kyler was originally supposed to break the cinder block with his fist and despite everyone telling him not to hit it with his face, Joe Seo immediately decided to as soon as they called action

- Demetri likely googled “which dojo would hurt me the least” to decide which he would join and that in combination with the fact that it was free, he choose Miyagi Do

- “I don’t think Demetri would last if he stayed in his [Johnny’s] class”

Alicia Hannah-Kim, Martin Kove, & Yuji Okumoto

- “Out of Kwon, Hawk s3, and Johnny in KK, who is made out of the most Cobra Kai material?” and they all said Kwon

- Yuji described his and Kim’s relationship as fireworks. They’re kinda cut from the same cloth but it’s also kinda like adding gasoline to a fire, it’s an explosion

- If Sato returned in the series, it would be a very interesting dynamic because their relationship would’ve changed a lot.

- Kim would likely be devastated by Kreese’s death

- Martin Kove would like to play Tory if he had to choose anyone else and Yuji said he would either play Johnny or Hawk. Alicia said she’d like to play Zara

- Tory would likely believe that Kreese didn’t die and believe he would show up again, as would Johnny

- Sensei Kim was always rooting for Tory

- Originally Martin wanted to fight Terry with swords

- I just wanted to mention that almost every other question when it was relevant, they would just repeat “John Kreese never dies” and the entire audience would just go WILD

Musicians (Zach Robinson & Leo Birenberg)

- One episode takes them around 10 days to compose and the fight scenes take up most of that time

- The big fight in s6e10 took 2 full days to compose. Before fully composing it, they planned out chunks to determine where it switches from being a fun, cool brawl to serious and deadly

- They never read the scripts before hand and only write the music after watching the episode

- I asked about whether it was intentional to draw parallels between Danny and Terry with them both being introduced with more classical music. They said it was not to draw parallels between them but rather calling back to the original movies and that pallet. And then Terry’s music ended up shifting more toward a darker synth

Billy Zabka & Xolo Marideuna

- Gianni and Jacob (The Binary Brothers) are the most likely to break character and crack up

- Jacob was trouble and would joke around, bringing down Xolo with him. Jacob was able to lock in as soon as they start filming and left Xolo laughing

- Xolo mentioned Johnny curing Miguel’s asthma

- Xolo got the call that he got the role when he was coming home from school hanging out with his friends

- Someone joked that Johnny should become a doctor because he can cure asthma and paralysis

- Xolo confirmed he would come back as Blue Beetle in James Gunn’s DCU reboot but said he doesn’t think he can say anything else

- Billy mentioned twice that Johnny had no friends and no fish which makes me wonder if maybe he did have a fish at one point or it was potentially pitched and turned down

- Referred to Johnny rolling a blunt in the KK movie as “connecting with the Earth”

- They shot all of the stunts and scenes in the Sekai Taikai in one week

- The first movie Billy was in was a documentary his dad made when he was 5 and he played himself and he was punching his neighbor

- Sam and Tory would probably have a more fun time with each other at prom rather than being with Miguel so they would probably ditch him and just go off to hang out on their own

- Billy said he doesn’t think either Kreese or Terry died in the explosion

- Whenever they would get a question about the cast (out of everyone in the cast,…?/if you had to choose any other character to act as…?) they almost always answered “Bert”

Tanner Buchanan & Mary Mouser

- Mary said she wishes that we got to see Sam in Okinawa because she wanted to go to Okinawa

- Sam and Tory likely would’ve teamed up to defeat Zara if the three of them fought

- Tanner when asked which big fight was the most fun responded, “It’s hard to choose which fight was my favorite because I lost all of them”

- Mousechanan is Tanner’s favorite ship name of them and is what they would name a dojo is they shared one

- Tanner said he thinks is Axel didn’t cheat and break his leg, Robby could’ve beat him

- Someone asked if Johnnys training ever crossed the line from training to child abuse and Mary said she was too scared of Billy to answer

- Mary said that Tory and Sam influence each others karate styles

- Asked about a major plot twist- Mary said she personally hcs that Sam wasn’t straight

- Tanner said he would root for Kwon and Mary said she would root for Axel if those two fought

- Tanner wants Robby to ride a motorcycle

- The original story ended with Sam and Miguel not ending up together so she was shocked when Miguel also goes to Okinawa

- “Even if they’re not meant to be together, they’ll still always be in each others lives”

- Tory and Robby ALSO weren’t supposed to end up together, no one was

- They talked about a potential alternative universe where Robby and Sam didn’t break up and they both agreed it would take a lot longer for them to learn their lessons and grow if they remained in that relationship because the relationship between the two of them is very familiar and comfortable and safe. They would’ve have been able to grow as much if they hadn’t challenge themselves to walk away

- I again asked if there were any arcs/aspects they wish could’ve been explored and Mary said she wished we got to see more of Sam dealing with and working through her PTSD. She mentioned that behind the scenes in her personal interpretation of playing the character, she was acting Sam through the perspective of it taking her a lot longer to heal from her PTSD.

- Someone asked whether Tanner thought Johnny was a good dad and he was clearly trying to figure out what to say that wouldn’t upset people so after thinking for a bit he finally said that he thinks Johnny is a good dad now

- Tanner said he didn’t quite understand at first why they would have Robby push Miguel over the stairs after they spent the rest of the show trying to show that Robby could be good and the writers agreed. They said that Robby is kinda fueled by rage and that since he kicks backwards without looking, he doesn’t realize where exactly Miguel is and how the kick would push him over. Tanner also said that Miguel pushed Robby against the banister during the fight and joked that it wasn’t his fault Robby had better balance than Miguel

- In another universe, Mary would like to play Electra and be in any of the twilight movies (“I’d like to be a vampire in any degree”) and Tanner would like to play Robin or Ghost Rider, and maybe even be part of the John Wick series

- Tanner said if Axel hadn’t cheated, he thinks Robby could’ve taken him in and won

One of the most underrated jokes from Game Changer has to be Zach Reino's improvised newsie joke of "Extra, extra, read all about it! The fish are gone."

It knocks me out laughing every time I watch the episode. I cannot imagine a funnier headline to come up with for a local newspaper.

And the fact that he somehow managed to tee up the next joke for Zeke by cosmic coincidence is just *chef's kiss*.

My name is Helly R. I'm making this video roughly two hours before it will be shown to me. I have, of my own free accord, elected to undergo the procedure colloquially known as severance. SEVERANCE. S1E1. GOOD NEWS ABOUT HELL

[human-centipuppy]

this is how episode 23 was pitched I think

[cobra-wives]

interesting thing i've noticed in my listen through of the cobra kai season 6 soundtrack - quality, not quantity introduces the same musical motif melody as the scene in s5e7 (globo-kai) where terry and john are sparring. is this the sekai taikai's musical motif?

'Oppenheimer is one of the biggest movies premiering this week and with Christopher Nolan as director and a star-studded cast including Cillian Murphy, Florence Pugh and Robert Downey Jr, the movie is set for global success.

The film follows the story of American scientist J Robert Oppenheimer and his role in the development of the Atomic Bomb. It is based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning book, ‘American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer, written by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin.

Cillian,47, plays the titular role alongside Florence, 27, who plays the woman he had an extra-marital affair with - Jean Tatlock. Ahead of the film's premiere the actors have faced backlash over their on-screen relationship and their 20-year age gap.

Age gap relationship on or off screen certainly isn’t anything new to Hollywood so why is it that people feel so strongly about the pairs coupling in this film? In real life the couple’s age gap was actually around 10 years so it’s understandable why critics are calling it a ‘miscast’.

However, fans have come out to defend Florence playing the role, as one person wrote on social media “[Jean] Tatlock was 22 years old when she started dating Oppenheimer and 29 when she died”. The movie follows Oppenheimer’s life over decades and Jean is only in the film for part of his life so it makes sense Florence who is 27 years old would play Jean throughout her 20s.

It’s not the first time Florence has been embroiled in an age gap debate. The British actress was in a relationship with 'Scrubs' actor Zach Braff who is 21 years her senior. The couple dated for three years and would often have to defend their age-gap relationship. Speaking to Harper's Bazaar Florence said "We've been trying to do this separation without the world knowing because it's been a relationship that everybody has an opinion on."

There have also been many films that have seen enormous age gaps on screen but no one really batted an eyelid.

In the film ‘As Good As It Gets’ Jack Nicholson was 60 when co-star Helen Hunt was 34.

Scarlett Johansson was 18 when she played opposite Bill Murray, 52, in ‘Lost in Translation’ and Elizabeth Olsen was just 31 when she starred in ‘Wandavison’ alongside Paul Bettany, 49.'
