The Drama Anonymous 38878[Reply]
I watched the drama last weekend, and unfortunately, I really liked it; I must be very normie-ish.
Spoilers ahead:
Emma probably made the mistake of frequenting thorny areas of the internet, and that's why she had the "idea" she had. Thinking about committing a crime of that magnitude is indeed very worrying. I, in fact, was a young millennial, mentally vulnerable and with a dubious character, who had a strong urge to commit crimes during high school, whether against classmates, teachers, my own mother, and finally, to attempt suicide. I wonder to what extent the maid of honor, Rachel, was actually hypocritical and overreacted, or if being involved in those internet environments and having those kinds of impulses is morally reprehensible.

I haven't watched it yet but I'm interested to see it. I never planned a mass casualty event but I did plan violence as a fucked up kid

>>38878I had fantasies about killing classmates, teachers, my own mother, and suicidal thoughts too. But I never planned a mass shooting, of course, especially since I don't live in the US, and in the shithole I live in, civilians don't have easy access to firearms. But this movie intrigued me, because I always thought edgy and violent thoughts were common in teenagers, but I guess I'm just mentally broken and spent more time than I should have on the internet.

It's got a lot of good things going for it. I liked how it examined how fractured, isolating and bizarre 21st century culture can be, while not all but saying "we're doing this" (a la Adolescence). Perhaps Rachel's immediately hyper-hostile reaction was a little overblown, and makes her character feel more like a living narrative device than an actual person. Nevertheless, it's great, and if you haven't you should probably go and see it. Preferably without, sitting two rows in front of you, a man who kept throwing his hands in the air and putting them on his head in shock every time something happened in the film, like I did.
Also "the twist" people kept talking about is called an "inciting incident". That's not a twist unless you think with the heist in Die Hard, or the dinosaurs getting loose in Jurassic Park, are twists.
Why would a DJ having a substance abuse problem be a downside? I'm not paying you to DJ my event if you don't have one.
