34:35 - “The value of your shares before or after you take responsibility?” Yes! I’ve watched so many KZbinrs react to this movie, and you’re the first one I’ve seen to catch on to the scam Miles was running on Birdie, who clearly isn’t smart enough to catch on herself. (Fun fact: this is also insider trading.) But J, you gotta be kinder to yourself. Your math was absolutely mathing in this. You figured out why Whiskey was fooling around with Miles; you realized why Duke’s phone was blowing up; you realized Duke tried to blackmail Miles with the knowledge of Andi’s death; and you figured out the stock scam Miles was pulling on Birdie. That’s a damn sight better than I did the first time I watched this.

Fun Fact: The flashback to the gang of friends meeting Miles for the first time sees him show up dressed like Tom Cruise's character in Magnolia (1999). That was Edward Norton's choice, and he didn't tell Rian Johnson beforehand. "The idea behind it is that Miles has never had an original thought in his life." the director stated. 😂

Notice Lionel says “you didn’t burn it?” And then the next thing Miles does is burn the napkin and even gives Lionel a nod. He really never has an original idea in the movie.

"That's how I feel in the comments sometimes..." That's world famous cellist Yo-yo Ma who delivers the information about the use of musical fugue. Rian then uses that in the movie, as after the glass breaks we play the movie over again from a different view. It's brilliant. "Who are the other three?" Angela Lansbury, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Natasha Lyonne, and Stephen Sondheim are Blanc's Among Us crew. Sondheim and Lansbury have since passed 😭
@elbruces8 ай бұрын
It's worth noting that they're all "sleuths" too, in their own ways. Angela Lansbury if famous from the old TV show "Murder She Wrote." Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has written a mystery novel himself (aside from being an NBA star). Natasha Lyonne is in a new TV show about a mystery solver (also by Rian Johnson). And Steven Sondheim has written a mystery movie himself (aside from being a famous Broadway composer).

I've never understood why Miles set the lights to go out. It wasn't part of the original murder mystery weekend. Benoit Blanc tells us Miles stole the idea from him. He didn't set the lights to go out because he planned on murdering Duke. The murder was a spur-of-the-moment decision when Duke blackmailed him with the cell phone alert about Andi. Was his original plan to kill Andi in the dark? Why wouldn't he have brought his own weapon? Was his original plan to turn out the lights and then try to grab Duke's gun and then try to shoot Andi in the dark? (He didn't know that Andi was going to leave the group before the lights went out.) And why did he need to kill Andi/Helen now anyway? He had the napkin, and he knew from the cell phone that Andi was dead. What was the motive for killing Helen?

A bit of woke stench in the plot and character design, but overall a good movie. One big plot hole: if Miles is an idiot, why did it take him involvement of making the careers of others? What did they need him for? And if he was an idiot, how did he box out Cassandra, who is supposed to be so smart, but couldn't hold on to her own company?
@FLQueerLiberal19828 ай бұрын
To your first question: I would lay that down to his charisma, perhaps even bribery. I suggest latter point because it is partially the answer to your question. He boxed her out due to lawyers, and bribing the rest of their crew to lie for him in the lawsuit. Andi made one serious mistake, she should have never let him be the face of Alpha. Also, "woke stench"? Knives Out was also woke, it could be argued by your ilk.
