Glass Onion - Tumblr Posts
I think my favourite detail in Glass Onion that I haven't seen anyone discuss yet is the fact that Benoit is acting out of character in the first act and then it gets revealed that he's acting out of character because he's trying to seem oblivious/dumbfounded in his plan with Helen but he just sucks so hard at being an actor
How am I supposed to enjoy the Dungeons & Dragons movie when all I'm going to be thinking when I see Hugh Grant on screen being the bad guy (?) is, "Oh dip, Benoit Blanc's husband is in this."
Benoit Blanc & Sherlock Holmes both prove that the best detectives aren’t actual trained detectives but nosy gay men who drink their respect women juice and hate the rich.
If this happens, one of you is going to have to call an ambulance because I will forget how to breathe, my heart will be beating so fast, it'll be like I just drank an energy drink and I'll be bursting into flames! (I'm joking, I'll be fine....maybe.)
Or, I will cry.
So, Benoit Blanc is confirmed queer in Glass Onion. There's a scene where you see him living with a man. And Johnson and Daniel Craig have both said "It's the perfect person to play Daniel's partner."
And, no one is saying who it is. But if Ben Whishaw shows up in that scene, I'm gonna scream.
Welcome to [tumblr] dot com.
I find it absolutely hilarious that after playing the popularised sexy man “James Bond” for what feels like a millennium, Daniel Craig has only now reached tumblr sexy man status by playing a funky southern gay detective with a hubby that bakes sour bread. If this is not the most on brand tumblr thing I don’t know what is

I watched Glass Onion and Cassandra and Helen are names of women from Greek Mythology and the movie takes place in Greek. Let me do some research because I think there is some purpose behind those names.
Cassandra was cursed for saying no to someone important. Her curse was she would speak the truth but never be believed.
Helen started a war.
That is all rather fitting

Did we all decide to forget about Angela Lansbury playing 'Among Us' against Daniel Craig and winning?
Little bit of column A, little bit of Column B?
My take/interpretation: After his gaming career went down the tubes, he would have needed to "rebrand", and likely took it too far in the opposite direction, and a mixture of bitterness and self loathing made him believe in the rhetoric he'd been parroting.
Biggest roadblock though? He genuinely respects/fears his mother, and she likely gives him reality checks every now and then on what a tool he is being.
I have a question abt the Glass Onion specifically Duke’s character.
Is he a men’s right activist bc he wants money and fame or is he in it because he believes in it like genuinely.
I assumed the first bc when he says anything to his mom, his mom smacks the shit out of him, and he apologizes.
If the third knives out is in the winter, the fourth needs to be Benoit Blanc and Hugh Grant's wedding in the spring, Marta, Helen and the girl boss from the third movie attend, Bendoit gets poisoned/shot/put out of commission and the three have to team up to figure out who did it
Either Bendoit gets shot and he's in surgery the whole time and between surgeries he's in and out of consciousness and able to help temporarily
OOOR he's poisoned and only the killer has the antidote so time is of the essence
Either way we see Hugh Grant in protec mode

Should I make a part two?
Was Benoit’s sexuality ever discussed in the first Knives Out movie?
Benoit Blanc's first appearance, but he's wearing this outfit.
my favourite genre is women setting fire to their tormentor's homes/buildings and then walking out surrounded by flames
everyone is out here with these fantastic theories and metaphors in glass onion
but i just can't stop laughing at miles bron's face when blanc says that he got the box with its stupid "children's puzzles" that took him less than a minute to solve like. that motherfucker was so offended and i loved every second of it
my thoughts during the entirety of glass onion:
