We all knew that Knives Out did well enough for someone to want to foot the bill for a second Benoit Blanc outing; I just wished that I got to watch it in the cinema or something instead of streaming it a month after it came out in American cinemas.
I might've caught the Radiohead reference in the title when that came out, but I definitely missed the Beatles reference. (My excuse is that I didn't get into later era Beatles)
- I still can't get over Daniel Craig's Foghorn Leghorn accent LOL
- Having Ethan Hawke spray everyone in the mouth beforehand with a mysterious substance so they can be maskless is not the worst workaround for masking restrictions.
- Birdie's non-mask is hilariously cringe. Acherly, her character is just cringe on two legs.
- I laughed even harder when Hugh Grant cameo-ed as Blanc's partner, and that he called him "Blanc"
- You know they got more (*coughNetflixcough*) money for this movie, AND IT SHOWS - the locations, cameos, etc etc.
- Twins! It's always twins!
- Is Edward Norton now the designated movie asshole villain or something?
- Kinda surprised that Rian Johnson knows Among Us?
- I don't blame Rian Johnson for reportedly being upset that the "Knives Out" part of the title was tacked on unnecessarily. But to be fair, people are stupid lah - they won't know it's the second Benoit Blanc movie unless you mention the Knives Out connection
- I wonder what song title he's gonna be inspired by for the next Benoit Blanc...?
It's a very 2020 movie and it shows - quarantining, "pods", mask shortages (and the cloth masks), playing Among Us via teleconferencing technology...
