I read somewhere that he's in, but they're not revealing who he is for now.

Maddie Ziegler spent the entire Chandelier video doing Edward style nonsense to the point where it once seemed like a no-brainer, but I suppose that lovely movie was one step too far.

Besides, the character is so genderfluid and neurodivergent that it's kind of difficult to pull off today without being extremely careful, so I'm not surprised they're an Unseen Ally. Maybe we'll actually see them somewhere near the end.

"...creating a vision of the sort of society you want to have in miniature"
Midnight Mass was really great. Some of Flanagan’s best writing yet. I think I enjoyed the slower, non-horror moments more. The actual horror moments were great and visceral, but there are some really stunning scenes of just people talking with incredible performances.

Nothing as shocking and jaw dropping as Hill House’s “Bent Neck Lady” ending, but still some really stunning moments and a very thoughtful meditation on grief, guilt, and faith.

Midnight Mass should be called Monologue Mass but Mike Flanagans Netflix horror series have always been like that so it's not unexpected. I'm on the last episode and I hope it gets crazy but if not it'd still be a nice atmospheric series for the season.

Yeah it can be a little confusing because they went with an all star cast for the audio drama adaptation.


Also I'm totally going to take credit for the fact that Doom Patrol s3 added the physical actors to the opening credits after complaining about it last year.

Actress did a drat good job replying to it


quote:

"First I wanted to apologize to the fans that I do not anatomically match the Faye Valentine character," Pineda said. She summarized Faye's 'anatomy' as "Six foot, double-D size breasts, two-inch waist" and sarcastically remarked, "You know, they looked everywhere for that woman, and they couldn't find her. It's kinda weird. So they just went with my short rear end. I know, am I right?""

The other thing I wanted to bring up was, I wanted to apologize that the outfit I'm wearing is not exactly what she wears in the anime," Pineda said, referring to complaints her costume doesn't look like Faye's usual get-up in the anime -- which is implausibly short and thin and sometimes appears to be defying the laws of gravity. "You know, we tried, but doing stunts in tissue paper -- things disappear, they rip... That original costume, they made a couple of them, but like I said, they got sort of slurped up in my various crevices, never to be retrieved again. So, we really built something that could withstand the test of time."

Yeah, a lot of the replies to the trailer are variations of ~i refuse to watch after the lead actress insulted the fan base~ which tells you all you need to know about that particular group.

So much of the show's reception really seems like a no win scenario as evidenced by the reactions already, you're going to piss off someone. But this definitely seems like the BEST case scenario we're in right now. I don't have a super fervent attachment to the show, but when originally I saw "Netflix going to show the Bebop opening credits" my reaction was "HOW are they going to replace Tank?!?!" and when I finally saw it I knew they made the perfect call.

Honestly, at this point I think it may just pull it off. The original is amazing, in its own right, so a 1:1 adaptation could just bring that to the mainstream. There are some visual elements that will be hard to translate without crossing the border between live action Speed Racer and live action Ghost in the Shell, so I'll be interested to see which side of the divide it falls onto.

The main actress responded to criticisms about her clothes/body, so expect 5-hour video essays about how the plot doesn't make any sense because no-one thinks to give the dog a gun and how Faye is a mass murderer because she knocked over a fruit stand and now the greengrocer's kids can't go to college.
