drat that sucked!!

- no inner monologue
- everyone looks 2-3 points hotter and generally too healthy and tanned.
- Mark looks like Charlie Sheen if Charlie Sheen were doing a role like Vince Vaughn in Thumbsucker
- the flavor of WW2 obsession Mark has feels out of place in US society
- Mark seems shorter relative to other people — is shortness more embarrassing in america?
- Riding the bus is definitely more embarrassing in America than England
- I don’t think the chavs harassing Mark would really have an equivalent in America

e: for Jez, I think smoking weed in England is different culturally from America, and casting Jez as a stoner leaves out a good chunk of his personality.

Sad about the incredible likelihood that David Mitchell is also a TERF because so much of his comedy brought me joy in my 20s. He is at minimum a weapons-grade secret Tory

I didn't pick any tory vibes from him in any of his other work. he's probably a lib at worse. can't recall him ever saying anything about trans people, I think that even if he is a terf he's smart enough to stfu about it.

hmm.. looks like Alexandra dadario is an op

quote:

Alexandra Anna Daddario was born in New York City on March 16, 1986,[2][3] the eldest child of Christina, a lawyer, and Richard Daddario, a prosecutor and former head of the New York City Police Department counterterrorism unit.[4] . . .Her paternal grandfather was Emilio Q. Daddario, a Democratic member of the U.S. House of Representatives for Connecticut from 1959 to 1971.

and her TV husbands a little boob :berned:

Vermont native Jake Lacy supported Bernie Sanders in the last presidential election and is behind him again for 2020, but the “Girls” actor doesn’t like to publicly discuss his views.

actually the funniest thing about the movie is like every single character is like "HEY I KNOW THAT ACTOR!" feel

second funniest was radcliffe's reaction to dwight going "i'll be your dementor" and just the absolute perfect encapsulation of horror that harry potter is forever.

most of if not all of the disney marvel/star wars shows have a mid-credits scene for season premieres And/or finales

she-hulk is an outlier for having a mid-credits scene in episode 3, but tbf it was a fun stinger

yeah to their credit a lot of the scenes echoed a lot of history without making any direct references to any one particular event. the corporation troops rolling into a hostile community and only half understanding what they're dealing with, the prison and all the forms of control there, bureaucratic infighting at the ISB, the million ways the empire tortures and oppresses people, the friction amongst the different rebel groups and how to run a guerilla campaign, it's all really legible without every feeling too cliche beyond it being Star Wars.
