UGH i just love this game and show and story so much and am so grateful we got them.

This is peak Ellie. Bella is a perfect Ellie. She even sounded like Ashley Johnson in this scene. Yet some of you fuckers keep saying she wasn't the "right choice," and I hate yall for that. Shut up about her casting, and fuck right off. Cause we all know why you think she's not a good fit, and it's not cause of her acting. Evil fucking motherfuckers.

I promise you, I won't get pregnant if you let me train for patrols. Deal?

hotel reverie | behind the scene

actually so obsessed with this photo.

[unicorniusfallapatorius]

not surprised about the internet being racist about issa’s performance in black mirror, “she can’t act! it was so awkward!” her character is literally thrust into an alternate reality with no rehearsal or warning and expected to do a movie with AI actors from the fucking 40s on day one and just not be affected? like? hello

because i felt issa’s “wtf????” naturally transition throughout the episode and have to be jerked back in time essentially and have to act beside the woman she’s just had a Y E A R LONG relationship with who doesn’t remember her??? And she was just supposed to be chill??? y’all about to piss me off like learn how to watch something damn

and I’m sorry but the joy in her face and voice when she picked up that phone? A love story for the ages

Brief Encounter (1945) dir. David Lean Black Mirror (2011–) · “Hotel Reverie” · dir. Haolu Wang

Hotel Reverie starts as a satirical commentary on soulless remakes, and one of the "jokes" is that they recast the main white guy as a Black woman, in a period piece where a Black woman feels anachronistic. This could have become a conservative comment about "forced diversity" and the woke agenda. Or it could have been a progressive comment about Hollywood casting non-white actors in color blind roles while ignoring the racist undertones of the media they're adapting.

But the brilliance of the episode is that it ends up being neither. As soon as Clara/Dorothy becomes sentient, the central theme shifts around human connection and what links us to the poeple who preceeded us. It is heavily implied that the real Dorothy was a lesbian and deeply unhappy in a time period that did not allow her self expression. Her AI version finds this freedom in her relationship with Brandy.

In the end, the message of the episode feels more that poeple have always been poeple. Society changes, becomes more accepting of certain communities, but that doesn't mean those minorities did not exist in the past. And the movie being a success despite the anachronisms is a proof that it works both ways, and modern day people can still relate to old timey stories and project ourselves in them with our own modern mindset.
