Here's another clue for you all - GLASS ONION: A KNIVES OUT MYSTERY -- dir. Rian Johnson; Daniel Craig, Edward Norton, Kate Hudson, Dave Bautista, Janelle Monáe, etc etc

i think the kombucha business is also pretty nice, subtle setup for the climax, when Blanc hands her a drink and some other hints. like, immediately she knows there's a message here, because earlier he was stopping her from drinking.

i think one of the reasons i got taken out of this bc i watched with my parents and they found the internet jokes incomprehensible

logan lucky a much more successful parent film

Whiney you’re basically a Republican now nobody cares what you think anymore

The Bernie Bro to Not Liking Netflix Movies pipeline

Well-spotted but our reference photo was actually this one:

agree with Whiney, I thought the story was clever but wasn't memorable, and the bad production made it seem like a Saturday afternoon kid's movie. Somebody above said something about "a mad scientist in his island lair" and that was what it felt like to me

I love Janelle Monae and want her to star in better movies

we need to Sneechify this thread asap

Somebody above said something about "a mad scientist in his island lair"

Surely...Bond villain.

ilu silby

whiney has popped both collars & is here to beat up the squares

my dad was just like "wow this was wild" and he never used to be able to sit through an entire movie

my mom is 70 and my sister feeds her cultural stuff, she's reading the Carreyrou book on Theranos, and she was catching most of it

I just learned that “Glass Onion” is also the name of a Beatles song

Makes me like the title less frankly

If I didn’t hold it against the first one, you can get over this one

Wait what

they should just make this series an 8-10 episode TV show imo

Nah bc then I wouldn’t watch it

Knives Out is the title of a Radiohead song

The way the lyrics of the song Glass Onion semi-relate to some of the themes of the film really does it for me: "See how the other half live", "Standing on the cast iron shore", "Fixing a hole in the ocean", "Fool on the hill/living there still" and of course (as per the thread title), "Here's another clue for you all". Just such a great touch

no Pauls were harmed in the making of this film

Lots of walruses harmed tho

Lol...one of my favorite R&S bits

the day after seeing this movie, we went to a "museum of contemporary art" that had some kind of karaoke booth by the entrance and some guy was absolutely butchering "Knives Out", it was... fitting?

I wish they had worked it into the first movie somehow though it would've been a tough sell. Maybe next one. Or whenever it is that Benoit will noooooot be cooooooming baaaaaaaaak

used to be annoyed by “glass onion,” but i’ve come around to thinking that it’s a great song

knives out = radiohead song

I'm hearing that knives out might be a song by a band called "radio head"

"Radio Head" is a song by Talking Heads, there are many layers to this (glass) onion

also: the walrus was Paul

Working title for the third movie is Whither Sturridge

relevant E Costello song plays as Craig inveigles his way into a Cheyne Walk supermansion

Best Glass Onion imo

and Stephen Tobolowsky = "radio head"

Maybe the third in the series will be called Truckin'.

definitely wouldn't be able to beat Flirting With Disaster for use of "Truckin'" as a musical cue

Oh I don’t mind it being named after a Radiohead song. I feel like “knives out” is just a phrase people say anyway. As long as the third one isn’t “Yellow Submarine” or “Eleanor Rigby”

johnson is way too "hip" for a grateful dead reference. my first thought for the next one was a queen reference, but that's more of an edgar wright thing. wait, is rian johnson the american edgar wright?

next one will be called Larks Tongues in Aspic

Oh I don’t mind it being named after a Radiohead song. I feel like “knives out” is just a phrase people say anyway. As long as the third one isn’t “Yellow Submarine” or “Eleanor Rigby”

this, uh, unhinged individual seems to be some kind of schizoid man. in this, the 21st of centuries. how peculiah

After Johnson revealed that in KO Joni is named after Joni Mitchell, and her husband after Neil Young, Linda and Richard after Richard and Linda Thompson and Walt and Donna after Walter Becker and Donald Fagen, I feel the existence of a Peg in the new one must indicate a Steely Dan theme which I am too dim/not quite nerdy enough to have registered.

next film will be called Barrytown

I thought it was gonna be called Old Brown Shoe.

meanwhile, trailer for Johnson’s mystery-of-the-week series with Natasha Lyonne:

what???? i am all in!! the world wanted lyonne to play columbo and i guess netflix listened?!

lol, beat me to it

It’s on Peacock not Netflix, but yes! Johnson listened at least :)

lol yes

and a nice bit of symmetry that NBC was the original network for Columbo

Networks are people too, my friend

NBC is a song by Radiohead
