a classic romantic comedy trope is when the lead character has to run through the natural elements like rain or snow to get to the love interest. to me it’s supposed to show that our hero learned to overcome the obstacles to get to their reward, which is their love interest. in ‘argestes’ we didn’t get that romcom kiss, but we got everything else so i count it as part of the trope.

loved the mentions of hugh grant and 1995 bbc pride and prejudice with colin firth as mr.darcy in the bridget jones novel. cannot tell if casting for film was intentional but v. entertaining nonetheless

They should cast Chris Sullivan as Hermes just so he can be the Colin Firth of Greek mythology

good movie is:

1. turn lights on

2. oh the dark is part of the metaphor or the character development or the -*gunshot*

3. lights. on.

4. whatever your plan for the cgi was, cut 10% off the top AT LEAST (a la coco chanel’s “take one accessory off before you leave the house” rule)

5. hand to hand combat and/or real filmed combat is NOTICEABLY better and we don’t talk about it enough. lasers do not impact the same way a fist does. yeah a lightsaber is fucking cool as hell but what if this character just got their shit rocked instead? this isn’t a hard and fast rule, but i’d love to see more people use it. (ex. that scene in bridget jones’ diary where hugh grant gets his ASS KICKED by mr. fucking darcy- incredible)

6. “it’s more expensive to–” just do it. if the money you are about to save is cutting corners by cutting out other artists in a collaborative creative process, just spend the money.

7. any and all rules go out the window for the muppets. goddamn i love those little fuckers and their silly lil ditties.
