I really liked how everyone assumed the Nazi kid was jerking it, but actually was just surfing Reddit in the bathroom trying to escape the family

But also, he was probably jerkin’ it.

By the way, if people liked this movie - and in particular liked the fact that it plays very heavily with genre tropes right down to overwhelmingly affected dialogue that somehow manages to work - but are unfamiliar with Rian Johnson other than “he’s the man that ruined my Star War / saved my Star War” and maybe a few Breaking Bad episodes, let this post be the one that tells you to go watch Brick right now it’s on Netflix and stop reading this post go watch Brick.


It does with classic Noir (think Maltese Falcon), a lot of what this film does with whodunnits, except, transplanted into a weird high school where Joseph Gordon Levitt talks like Humphrey Bogart and it works for some reason.

It’s really really great.

One question, why was the cop assisting Det. Elliot a state trooper? Was it because of the remote location of the Thromby house?

It’s just a Quirky Massachussets Thing; State Police have jurisdiction over homicide cases everywhere except for Boston basically.

We saw it a second time today, and missed Joseph Gordon-Levitt's cameo again. When is it?

He’s the TV Cop in the show Marta’s sister is watching right at the beginning.

I've said for years that one of the unifying elements of Bond actors is that while they may be able to play cool badasses, they're always better at playing dipshits.

The secret is that Bond himself is a tremendous dipshit.

He should just be Benoit Blanc from the hit film Knives Out, dropped into the Star Wars universe with no explanation

I’m intrigued by the little snippet buried in that article that the next Knives Out film starts shooting in June, in Greece. Benoit going international!

No, you're right, that fandom is extremely well-adjusted and saying otherwise makes you a sexist. Very reasonable position.

They’re more well adjusted than the people that think Johnson ruined Star Wars

Somebody ITT forever ago posted that the sequel should have the same cast, all playing different roles except for Craig, and I am very into that.

That does raise the question of what the titling convention will be. "Knives Out 2" doesn't really seem that likely given that the sequels likely won't feature a big wheel of knives. Maybe we'll get a subtitle like "A Benoit Blanc case file" or something, and it'll end up like Indiana Jones where the first installment doesn't have the series title, but a decade later everyone will assume it does?

This feels most likely; or just go the Bond route and assume the audience is smart enough to see a sequel with a totally unconnected title. Which works doubly well if seeing the first one isn’t required of them anyway, as it ought not be.

Just a series of different prepositions, Knives In, Knives Under, Knives Through, Knives Around, etc.

Alternately, different nouns or even verbs.
Guns Out, Time Out, Run Out, Far Out, All Out, Strike Out, etc.

He must be super poo poo at saving money, then, 'cause a main-event run in WWE pays pretty well.

Not nearly as much as it should, but they guy was a multi-millionaire.


The career that gets you to that main event run often doesn’t “pay pretty well” though. And paying debts has a way of making windfalls disappear.

Knives Out 2 is coming this year. While there's still time for a trailer, I think it's time to start guessing based on absolutely no information, as to which actor is going to end up dead, and which actor is going to play a murderer.

Reminder this is the non Benoit Blanc cast for the film:

Dave Bautista
Edward Norton
Janelle Monáe
Kathryn Hahn
Leslie Odom Jr.
Kate Hudson
Madelyn Cline
Jessica Henwick
Ethan Hawke




My money is on dead Norton, by hand of Hawke.

6: No Surprises

You could actually do a pretty good mystery franchise with just a selection of Radiohead titles. Like, No Surprises would work, we’ve got Knives Out, but you could also have

Everything in it’s Right Place, A Wolf at the Door, A Jigsaw Falling Into Place, and How To Disappear Completely.

GLASS ONION SOLIDIFIES KNIVES OUT AS THE NEXT GREAT MYSTERY FRANCHISE: An early spoiler-free review of the sequel

Hype train hype train.

If you have an exceptionally expansive view of what counts as a spoiler, this review includes such spoilers as "movie good" and "specific actors especially good in movie" along with the sort of 5 word capsule description of every character that one might find in a casting sheet or infer from a trailer.
