Returning to Sandra Bullock in "The Net", a prescient text:
"... she was working at home and we also wanted to express her loneliness, it was actually Irwin, the director, who came up with, 'What if you could order pizza over the net?' I remember at the time I was thinking, 'Well, why would you want to do that? You can just call somebody and just order pizza.' [But] what we wanted to say is that she doesn't want to have any contact with any humans directly.'"
I mean this in the nicest possible way: The Net (1995) is aesthetically Mastodon: the Movie
"We're sitting on the most perfect beach in the world and all we can think about is--"
"--where can I hook up my modem"
@atax1a @aphyr I gave it (well, ~half of it) a watch tonight and...wow. I won't speak for the trans-coded aspect (although I can see what you're saying, for sure), but I was floored by how socially awkward Angela was, and briefly wondered how I didn't notice this when I saw it in the theater when I was 13 and...oh. Oh no. 🫢
I guess I've come a long way since then. 😂
