Bad Times at the El Royale liveplurk, here be spoilers and either a lot of !!! or a lot of or maybe both idk
DryadGurrl
jesus two and a half hours good thing I'm starting it now
DryadGurrl
I know I'm preaching to the choir, but longer =/= better
DryadGurrl
I do appreciate that (so far) it's set up like a theatre stage vs. a movie scene
DryadGurrl
it's nicely done, but sadly also v. dark and hard to see what's going on
DryadGurrl
ah, okay looks like that was just for the prologue
DryadGurrl
to make sure we knew it was Old Timey
DryadGurrl
JEFF BRIDGES!!!
DryadGurrl
also calling it right now: Dreamgirl who grew up to be Aretha's got a body in her trunk
DryadGurrl
oop my bad, that's not Jennifer Hudson
DryadGurrl
ah-AH Cynthia Erivo who did play Aretha Franklin, so I wasn't totally off
DryadGurrl
and also that was Ron Swanson in the prologue, I thought it was
DryadGurrl
okay that CA v. NV exchange was adorable and I hope it's a running gag
DryadGurrl
FATHER FLYNN OMFG
DryadGurrl
And Johnhamm's southern accent is making me giggle
DryadGurrl
I already don't know what's going on here, but not necessarily in a bad way
DryadGurrl
apparently errybody knows Ron Swanson left a duffle bag of ??? under the floorboards of one of these rooms
DryadGurrl
WHAT THE FUCK JOHNHAMM???
DryadGurrl
ARE YOU A SECRET DENTIST????
DryadGurrl
and the accent is gone as soon as he's on the phone I DON'T LIKE THIS
DryadGurrl
not sure what he just pulled out of this phone while he was on it but maybe recording device
DryadGurrl
more of 'em in the outlets
DryadGurrl
and the lamp
DryadGurrl
and the switchplates
DryadGurrl
and the electric fireplace
DryadGurrl
ceiling fan
DryadGurrl
fixture over the bath OMFG HE'S TAKEN THE WHOLE ROOM APART OMFG
DryadGurrl
IT'S IN SHAMBLES
DryadGurrl
oooh! Breaking news report, there's been A MURDER
DryadGurrl
and the hotel clerk miiiight be ded of an od
DryadGurrl
might just be passed out
DryadGurrl
god even in the Secret Tunnel™ they still mark the line between states
DryadGurrl
/squints
Do those marks on the floor mean someone was lectrocuted there? Or is it something else?
DryadGurrl
well shit every room's got a two-way mirror in it
DryadGurrl
and the priest is ripping up the floorboards, I guess this is why the prologue looked like that, it was meant to be viewed thru the window
DryadGurrl
which is cool
DryadGurrl
oh ho ho ho girlie's got a prisoner, maybe not!dreamgirl ain't the only one with a body in her trunk
DryadGurrl
(or maybe she'll leave with one, either way)
DryadGurrl
oh man actual phoon booth in the parking lot
DryadGurrl
OH HO HO HO SPECIAL AGENT NOT VACUUM SALSEMAN!
DryadGurrl
also not sekkret dentist
DryadGurrl
"How lucky are you feeling tonight?"
"...Definitely not eat that sandwich lucky."
DryadGurrl
(vendomat)
DryadGurrl
I'm starting to think he's not an actual priest
DryadGurrl
also starting to wonder if not!dreamgirl is a contract killer due to the peek at her past
DryadGurrl
DID FATHER FLYNN KILL RON SWANSON???
DryadGurrl
WELP HE JUST DOSED HER DRINK
DryadGurrl
AND SHE CLOCKED HIM WITH A BOTTLE AND I JUMPED
DryadGurrl
and now special agent not a dentist vacuumsalesman with orders not to let anybody leave so he's out here sabotaging errybody's cars
DryadGurrl
okay apparently girlie's prisoner is rescued from a cult maybe? Whatever the hell Hemsworth's got going on
DryadGurrl
and maybe is her sister?
DryadGurrl
or just someone else who he had sway over, hard to say
DryadGurrl
Sister, yep, and special agent not a dentist is making it worse
DryadGurrl
WELP SHOTGUN TO THE CHEST AIN'T GONNA DO HIM MUCH GOOD
DryadGurrl
did they bust up the two way mirror?
DryadGurrl
...WAIT ARE THEY IN ON THIS TOGETHER (and yes they did, mirror is toast)
DryadGurrl
okay the clerk didn't OD, he's taking care of bottle-concussed priest
DryadGurrl
oh man I love how these instances are overlapping
DryadGurrl
it's actually very William Gibson with the overlaps and retreads to get separate folks caught up
DryadGurrl
I'm enjoying it
DryadGurrl
and still got an hour
DryadGurrl
okay girlie and sister aren't in this together bc sister just called somebody to let them know where she was (presumably Hemsworth)
DryadGurrl
well okay then, Father Flynn robbed an armored truck with with Ron OMG THE PRIEST IS THE CIGARETTE SMOKING MAN
DryadGurrl
not priest, judge at the robery trial
DryadGurrl
ROBBED THE ARMORED TRUCK OUTSIDE OF STOCKTON I KNOW WHERE THAT IS!
DryadGurrl
"You spend your life getting shook, you learn to spot a shaker."
DryadGurrl
it's a good line
DryadGurrl
"You just shot me in the face."
"Well no, let's be clear, I shot another man who had it comin', and you just happened to be back there being creepy, and you caught a face full of buckshot for your trouble."
DryadGurrl
oh man, her singing to cover up the noise of him digging the money out of the floor, I hope at least one of them survives
DryadGurrl
(but I doubt it)
DryadGurrl
she's a black woman alone and he's an old dude with dementia
DryadGurrl
and they don't even know if they're being watched or not, they just have to assume they are
DryadGurrl
(they are, of course, but they don't know that)
DryadGurrl
...yeah this is fucked up
DryadGurrl
which I think is the point
DryadGurrl
OHHH LITTLE SISTER DONE THE MURDER FROM THE NEWS (supposedly)
DryadGurrl
it's her money, she earned it singing, I mean... yes, technically that's true
DryadGurrl
at least half of it, anyway
DryadGurrl
and the multiple times that Hemsworth has been framed with a halo of some kind is brilliant
DryadGurrl
yeah she ain't gonna make it, she called him out to his face in front of his cult
DryadGurrl
welp they're gonna start the hotel on fire
DryadGurrl
WHAT THE FUCK MILES
DryadGurrl
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK
DryadGurrl
oh idk if those count but sure
DryadGurrl
you think they do, that's what matters
DryadGurrl
GOTDAMN MILES
DryadGurrl
maybe notdreamgirl gonna survive
DryadGurrl
GOTDAMN MILES
DryadGurrl
WELP
DryadGurrl
MILES GON DIE
DryadGurrl
THERE HE GO
DryadGurrl
right on the state line I love it
DryadGurrl
the visuals in this are A+ across the board
DryadGurrl
okay yeah, that was actually really good
DryadGurrl
not quite what I expected from the trailers, but not not what I expected either
DryadGurrl
I also like that they never flat out say who's on the film, only that he's famous, everyone would recognize him, and he's dead (and that his memory is possibly more important than he was himself)
