#MovieThread, 2022 edition!
In 2020 I watched 239 movies.
In 2021 I watched another 391,
for a total of 650 movies since very early into first lockdown.
That's probably all the movies, right?
I'm not doing anything else productive today, #15, or #665, 2021's "The Lost Daughter."
😈 "Devil" (2010)
just to file a guess:
* not the violent asshole guard or the scruffy veteran, too obvious
* not the dead mattress salesman, too dead
* the young woman is too obvious in the other way, she's so meek, But: Devil might cut themself, I guess.
* No real data on the old woman.
Current guess: I feel like I'm being lead to "it's the young woman," so I'm gonna say it's the old woman.
✉️ "Dear Evan Hansen" (2021)
this should fall apart instantaneously because Evan Hansen doesn't actually know fuckin jack shit about the other kid, no internal anything, nothing about his life, nothing at all, all he can do is make up gaiden stories
> does it actually fall apart instantaneously, alex
it does not fall apart instantaneously
😈 "Devil" (2010)
@Alexis Sa. Bo. Tage.
@Alexis The elevator one?
@kurt The elevator one.
✉️ "Dear Evan Hansen" (2021)
@Alexis That's the benefit of the stage version, I suppose, all long shots.
✉️ "Dear Evan Hansen" (2021)
@kurt Yeah, he could get on stage and do it tomorrow and that aspect of it at least would be totally fine.
Story still sucks eggs, though!
✉️ "Dear Evan Hansen" (2021)
@Alexis This movie is just "The Gang Finds a Dead Guy"
✉️ "Dear Evan Hansen" (2021)
@kurt A bit Weekend at Bernie's.
✉️ "Dear Evan Hansen" (2021)
@Alexis Would you really notice if they swapped Evan Hansen out for Dennis Reynolds?
✉️ "Dear Evan Hansen" (2021)
@kurt Season 1 Dennis might honestly be slightly less weird.
Season 15 Dennis, now you're doing a Wet Hot American Summer thing.

@Alexis The guy who plays Evan Hansen looks younger outside the movie than in the movie where they purposfully tried to make him look as young as possible and that is *with* a full beard.
✉️ "Dear Evan Hansen" (2021)
@kurt The worst thing is he's Acting SO MUCH, it's all body language, trying SO HARD to make himself 10 years younger and ganglier, but instead he looks like he's 40 and recently lost quite a lot of weight and muscle mass from a bad health scare.
💨 "The Last Airbender" (2010), Alex Jones
@Alexis It's a False Element operation, I heard all about it on InfoBenders.
