Thread: Rudy's TV Screen

Youtube Have you heard of the SuperCarlinBrothers? Omg! This is stellar and mind blowing! I'm probably super late on the Pixar theories but it's not necessarily something that I go looking for to pass the time. Anyway, my favorite of their videos are What Happened to Andy's Dad and Mulan The Great Stone Dragon . I also like the theory about Andy's monster See more where he does an overlap of Toy Story and Monster's Inc. but even though he says that Andy's monster is Randall, given the evidence he showsnamely, Randall using a roll of Andy's wallpaper from the first Toy Story film to practice his camouflage against makes just as plausible a case for Randall being Molly's monster instead. By the first Toy Story, Andy is already pretty big, like 10-12 if he's the same age as Sid, so, it feels a little unlikely that Randall would still be sneaking into his room to scare him. But as we see from the opening scene of Toy Story where Andy is playing with his toys, when One-Eyed Bart, played by Mr. Potatohead, is thrown into jail he is put into Molly's crib...which is right there in Andy's room. link Since we know Randall already has a penchant for scaring toddler little girls, it seems much more likely to me that he's scaring Andy's little sister instead. But that's just my personal theory. They've got some interesting ideas on that channel and I like their methods of determining and looking over evidence. These are some pretty dedicated fans. TV Still plugging away at Person of Interest and I find the development of the plot...frustrating. I feel like the Machine group has basically been painted into a corner and we're literally counting down the days until Samaritan shuts them all down. There's a fifth season, ffs, they NEED to get out of this somehow! I love the way the different relationships have developed, particularly the push and pull that still happens between Root and Harold. She's much more held back this season and it makes me sad but Reese moves right in to fill that hole. He's hilarious and badass and just everything you could want. He's very robotic to the point of basically being a Batman Android but all throughout the series, he's got these glib moments that are intensified by his deadpan delivery. And I fucking love this assholish smirk that he gets sometimes, contorting his features slightly, like he's unused to the expression and it doesn't fit but it's like a light in a tunnel for its sudden glow. Film Watched Coherence recently and omg, this is a new one on my recommend list! The premise is a good one A comet is passing overhead while some friends get together for an intimate dinner party. Things start to turn south when the power goes out and strange things start to occur. This is one of those movies that catches you off guard. So normal throughout, even when the strange things are happening, there's a down to earth creepiness about it. We're basically stuck in the same set the entire time, the house where the dinner party is at, and the street outside. That's it, the entire film. We don't see anybody else except for the dinner guests who are all there in the beginning and yet you have this feeling not of limitation but emptiness about it, like the drawing board is blank beyond their front porch. I love the way it keeps things realistic, the characters reacting in believable ways. You kind of empathize with everybody, even when some people start to panic or get angry those bad ideas they suggest ring true for that sense of reality is slipping and the desperation to cling to it. And they really play around with the whole is it real or is it insanity? trope for a while, giving it a good handling before finally setting it down. The only thing I didn't like was the one guy, who's apparently an alcoholic, starts drinking for no reason in the middle of the film. Like, it's literally an afterthought, wedged in there as if he's falling back on an unhealthy coping habit and yet he doesn't get drunk. I feel almost like the wine bottles he goes through at that point in the film were just an excuse to keep his character busy during those events and conversations a kind of sloppy, he's checked out placement of his character on the chess board, so to speak. I also watched Room and I loved it, adored the performances by Brie Larson and the little boy who plays her son but...it's not one I'd recommend and it's probably not one that I'll ever watch again. It was a great concept and a really good story but as far as anything I'd like to revisit or feel like I'd want to share with someone, it falls into the typical drama bin.
