EVERYTHING WRONG WITH WARRIOR NUN (2020)

Welp, I know what you’re thinking now: Noon disappears for 2 months and then comes back just to bash on something that isn’t even a kdrama?? Well, I mean you are right. I haven’t had the time or will to write kdrama reviews in a couple of months, and I haven’t watched that many kdramas either recently. But then, pretty much just for shits and giggles, I watched this show and it spited me enough to want to write about it, so I’m just going along with it. I am in no way, shape or form a cinematographer, or writer, nor do I generally know much about film making, so take what I’m saying here with a grain of salt. These are just my observations and opinions, you are entitled to your own.

An important concept in fillm and tv is suspension of disbelief. While as a viewer, we are aware that the things on screen are not real, we pretend that the characters are real people who are experiencing those things. Therefore, a show must set up a framework that makes sense to the viewers, in which they can place all of the story. In general, that means that everything on screen must follow the rules of logic and common sense, unless the story explicitly diverts from that. A story about magic does not adhere to our common sense, but if the writers give us a set of rules to logically explain how magic works in this universe, we can suspend our disbelief. It’s important that the explanation is logical, and that the story does not break it’s own rules. This is one of the things Warrior Nun fails to do.

Warrior Nun breaks the rules of common logic on multiple occasions, in big ways and small, without offering the viewer an explanation that would help us accept this deviation from our world. Obvious SPOILER ALERT.

(Dead) bodies don’t work this way

- Ava has been paralysed for most of her life. We know she had her accident when she was 8, and that Sister Frances murdered her because she was about to “age out of the system”. We can then assume she is 17 or 18, which means she’s spent about 10 years being spoon fed and cared for. There is absolutely no way Ava just stands up and goes about her life when she receives the Halo. While the resurrection by the Halo and the apparent healing skills it gives her may account for the fact she seems to even have muscle mass left in her arms and legs, she hasn’t used any of those muscles for a decade. Have you ever seen those videos of people who were paralysed learning to do stuff again like walk or even hold objects? Other than losing the muscle they need to do those things, they also lost the motor skills to do them. Ava shouldn’t know how to walk, or even hold a spoon to feed herself, much less run or dance or fight (we’ll come back to the fighting later)

- TW // death and dead bodies: In one of the early episodes, a Tarask searches Shannon’s corpse because it’s looking for the Halo (that is now in Ava’s body). We can assume that at least 24h has passed since Shannon died, because the priest has already cleaned up her body and it’s night time again. The Tarask uses its claw to turn the body around and then slashes open Shannon’s back to check if she’s still bearing the Halo. There’s two things wrong here. First of all, Shannon’s body would not flop around the way it is shown in the show. Rigor mortis, or the stiffening of the limbs and other parts of a corpse, starts setting in a couple of hours after death and is complete after around 12 hours. If anything, her body should be behaving like a massive plank or brick, and not gently and delicately turn over with little force. Secondly, and I don’t know why I even have to say this but here we are, dead bodies don’t bleed. In a later shot, we see Shannon’s back is covered in blood where the monster cut her open, but how is that even logically possible when there is nothing pushing the blood through her body?

- Another illogical aspect of this show is Ava’s fighting. She can’t have spent more than a few days training with the nuns (she effortlessly finds JC and friends again, who act like she wasn’t gone for too long), so it’s ridiculous how she suddenly has the ability to fight monsters and demons and even other nuns. At some points she seems to not know what she’s doing at all (for example when she swings her sword at the Tarask attacking Lilith), and then mere days later she’s battling an angel/demon as if she’s on equal footing with him. Even if the Halo has given her muscles, it can’t have given her fighting skills because she constantly gets bested at the start of the season. The show has to make a choice: either she’s completely helpless and a klutz, which would endear her to the viewers more, or she’s a super skilled fighter, which would make more sense for the plot but also makes her less accessible and more Mary Sue-like. 

OTHER SMALLER AND LARGER THINGS THAT BOTHERED ME:

- The internal monologue was soooo annoying. This stuff works well in books, but not in a show like this. Ava seems to be a pretty expressive person, but her inner monologue is so boring and monotonous. I get they wanted her to be snarky and sarcastic, but it just sounded like she was desinterested. Big nope

- Can this girl just stop running away for 2 minutes? It got pretty annoying after like the third time.

- The whole love storyline with JC was a big let down as well. I loved the awkward flirting at first, it totally made sense for Ava to be unsure and a bit stupid when this is the first guy she’s met after years in forced isolation. But then she suddenly kisses him in a cupboard while they’re hiding and they immediately have sex? Not only does that not really fit her character, it’s just unnecessary for the plot. Oh, and then the next episode they drop him and he’s never seen again even though Ava genuinely seemed to like him. Justice for JC, Netflix. He deserved better. 

 - The whole angel/demon in a wall plot for the last couple of episodes didn’t make much sense to me and, to be honest, by that point I didn’t have the motivation left to even try to understand it. 

- The acting in general was stilted and unnatural. I can forgive Alba Baptista in some ways because she’s not a native English speaker (I assume), but the writing really didn’t help. I feel like the writers of the show thought their viewers were stupid and tried to explain every single detail in the show through characters’ dialogue. Big tip: if you want to have exposition, don’t do it through characters who supposedly already know the information and have no use for saying it explicitly. 

- When did we decide Jilian Salvius was a good guy and not the bad guy? Made no sense at all. And I won’t even start about her son. Confusion all over. 

SOME REDEEMING QUALITIES

While it was an absolute train wreck of a show, I did enjoy some aspects of it. Here’s a short list in no particular order. 

- The setting. Absolutely loved the Andalusian background and the juxtaposition between the ancient architecture of Southern Spain and the Vatican with the high-tech lab. 

- The whole catholicism thing was present but not overbearing. I am a pretty convinced anti-clerical atheist, but the religious aspects of the show didn’t bother me. The use of religious language was appropriate but not condescending. 

- I loved the use of foreign languages in the show. Father Vincent is Spanish so of course he speaks Spanish with the Spanish art collector. The cardinal and mother superion naturally talk in Italian, Ava grew up in a Spanish orphanage so of course she learned some Spanish, Camila speaks English with Father Vincent because another nun is present but does throw in a couple of words in Spanish when that makes most sense. So often these type of shows force every character to speak in English even when it makes no sense. (One thing though: why is it Orfanato St. Michael’s? Why not San Miguel?)

- Beatrice. Just everything about her. Give me more.

Now that I'm rewatching Metropolis (1927 dir. Fritz Lang) finally, i just wanted to say that I think it's really interesting - we talk about The Dance Scene (TM) as a historical and apt illustration of The Male Gaze in fillm.

Interesting, because its a purposeful use of The Male Gaze, not an unconscious one. It's used in the film to point out how once the men of higher society see Maria as a sex object, they no longer care about her (to them) dangerous ideas of unionizing the workforce. The villains employ the male gaze as a way to devalue Maria's work.

For a movie that is 93 years old, it is still incredibly relevant for its depiction of class inequality, exploitation, and dehumanization. The special effects still hold up decently, and it's timely considering Lang later had to escape Germany as the Nazis came into power and his wife sympathized with them.

📹 Gonna film the music queen

Rosanna was goofing off and dancing around the kitchen. She was baking special sugar-reduced rust cookies for Thundercracker, since he was on a new, medically instructed, diet. So she found a special recipe for his favorite cookies that held significantly less sugar in them! But they were still super yummy~.

🎶 "Sugar pie honey bunch~ you know that I love you~~~!" 🎶 she sang as she mixed the batter. It took a minute or so to notice she was being fillmed. His wife turning to face him with a playful smile, and a raised brow ridge.

"Oh? And what do you think you're doing, silly?" She laughed.

VIXX | Their Dancer s/o Does Sexy Choreography With Another Idol Group

Anonymous said:

Big bang (+ vixx if you aren't busy) reaction to their dancer s/o being apart of a sexy choreography with another idol group? :) i really love your blog! All your stories are great xx

N/Hakyeon: “Sexy choreo? Why would you want to do sexy choreo?” he questioned when you told him that you would be dancing with a different group for a little while to spread your wings talent wise.

“I don’t know...maybe cause I need a break from all the angsty music videos that I’ve been put in the last couple of years,” you replied.

“You’re a very good at dancing and acting, that’s the only reason I have suggested you for those parts,” he said.

“Yeeeeeah...of course it is.”

Leo/Taekwoon: “Are you going to continue not talking to me just because I didn’t tell you that I was going to be doing a sexy choreo?” you questioned.

Silence

“Is the food good?”

Silence

“Does the fact that I went half way across the city and got you your favorite food that we only get to have on special occasions, make any difference in the situation?”

Finally he looked at you and gave you a slight nod.

“Well...at least we’re getting somewhere.”

Ken/Jaehwan: “Psst...jagi...” Jaehwan said, trying to get your attention before you went up on stage.

“What are you doing here?” you whispered loudly, “I told you to stay at home.”

“I just came to watch and wish you good luck...and to tell you that maybe you should cover up a bit, there’s so little to that outfit you wouldn’t want any accidents occuring.”

Ravi/Wonshik: You had informed him that you would be dancing would another idol; however you did not inform him of the concept of the choreography. So when him and Jaehwan went to watch the performance live he was completely shocked by what he was seeing go down on stage.

“What in god’s name am I looking at right now? That can’t be my...that is my Y/N...what is she wearing?! Jaehwan cover your eyes!”

Hongbin: You were completely honest with him about the choreography and that it was a sexy concept and though he wasn’t thrilled about it he was happy that you had this opportunity to further your career and the fact that you were honest made him rest easy.

Until he told the guys and Ravi found out...

“Did she explain the whole choreo...or just the concept?” Ravi questioned.

“Just the concept...I know it’s a sexy concept and Y/N is a professional and I know things will be kept that way,” Hongbin replied, feeling confident in that moment.

“Maybe, but think about it...Y/N is good looking, and being the lead dancer it will probably get a little steamy...and handsy...”

“You think?” he questioned.

“Didn’t you once say that Y/N’s butt was quite squeezable...makes you wonder is someone else might want to find out for themselves...”

“Y/N isn’t going to the set only...excuse me, but I have to go take some time off.”

Hyuk/Sanghyuk: Leo fillmed Hyuk as he moped around the apartment. You had asked the guys to do their best to keep him out of trouble (aka keep him from running to the set where you were currently doing a sexy choreo), and he wasn’t handling any of it well.

“You asked us to keep an eye on him, Y/N...well just so you know this sexy choreo thing has turned him into a mopey mess,” Leo said.

“I AM NOT A MOPEY MESS!”

“Please avoid any future sexy choreos for I don’t think that his heart can handle much more of this...oh and tell the producer that preview pictures for the video really weren’t necessary.”

“Why’d they put Y/N in something so revealing? Was that really necessary? I mean...I know that it’s a sexy concept...but don’t they think that that’s too sexy? Honestly...exploiting VIXX backup dancers for other idols sexy concept...the nerve.”

“Hurry home...Taekwoon out.”

I saw:

The Wiz- A New York City school teacher, at a family gathering where she feels uncomfortable, gets nagged by her aunt to move out and get a job as a high school teacher ( because apparently kindergarten kids don’t need good teachers so she’s wasting her life on the brats or something). She ends up running out into a snow storm after her dog, which judging by the lack of continuity with the mut they must have found a hassel to fillm with. Off she goes to a fantasy world constructed of the city she knows and too many viewings of the MGM musical of the Wizard of Oz (and only a vague memory of the book...BTW I wish there were a chance in hell of anyone doing a faithful adaptation any of the Oz books, but I guess Return to Oz is about as close as we’ll get....) There she works out her anxiety issues about leaving home while ironically trying to find her way back to it.   

She follows the the usual path of accidental witch killing (in a playground), befriends a scarecrow (stuffed with trash and bullied by crows), a tinman (battered sad remnent of a closed amusement park), and an endearingly anxious lion (bursting from the statue in front of a library). The classic story beats get hit, this time with hints of less than pretty realities, such as the poppies being what appear to be what mught be charitably called party girls or the Wicked Witch getting flush down her toilet shaped throne rather than melting. It’s familiar with a twist.

It’s an odd thing. I love the concept very much, and a summary of it cam sound wonderful. I like the idea of mixing real New York locations and fantasy. I loved some of the darker moments, most especially the arrival in Oz when graffitti figures step from the walls, parroting unnervingly Dorothy’s calling to Toto. I adored the Cowardly Lion and actually prefer him the MGM film’s version. (Seriously wonderful work from the actor) It’s full of details and images I thought were lovely .....

But...

A lot of it fell flat for me. The song and dance numbers dragged on an on, feeling like they were on a loop. There a sequence of color fashion changes in the Emerald City that I swear runs 467 minutes!  The camera drained energy out of performances that must have been utterly exhausting. It was like shooting a field of wildflowers in bloom with black and white. Has there ever been a more static camera sticking to long shots filming a musical? Dorothy felt frequently felt less like an insecure woman gaining confidence and more like a frantic person on the verge of hysteria. The writing somehow to took the strong idea of someone working out issues of lack of self confidence through a fantasy adventure where each character could be a reflection of an aspect of her issues....and made a gooey unconvincing mess of it.

I dunno. I don’t regret watching it, don’t get me wrong. There is good in it, just it didn’t live up to it’s potential. Mom and I did a lot of disecting of it after she admitted she was finding it “sort of boring”, because she too could point out things she liked. Best I can figure, a bit of work on the writing and a lot with directing, possibly editing to pick up the pace and maybe someone could have had a chat with Diana Ross about acting....but other than that (LOL) it would be great. I’m glad it exists, but I’d prefer to see one of the versions from an alternate universe.

Charles Lloyd still seeks inspiration from a Higher Realm: Video

Charles Lloyd still seeks inspiration from a Higher Realm: Video

When jazz saxophonist (and flutist) Charles Lloyd makes music, he is like a force of nature. Swaying and dancing, he is like a man possessed, musically, physically, emotionally — and spiritually.

Sometimes soulful, sometimes wild, sometimes soft and fluttery, what emerges is music that is always spontaneous and free. He has made his mark on the world as a musician who knows no boundaries.

Fillm…
