though i don’t think this is a good story (overall cliche but cant tell what the ending is until the last minute of the film), i’m still drawn to its exquisite retro look, style, music, and bold yet harmonious colors applied, which are so to my taste that i can overlook its plot deficiencies. better than The Breakfast Club from the same writer imo.
E2, From the old queen to the new: "The crown must win." 终于听到有趣的台词了 / E8 "that's our job, that's who we are, a coat of paint" yeah u are; "If the costumes are grand enough, if the tiara's sparkly enough, if the titles are preposterous enough, the mythology incompressible enough, then all must still be fine." / 她们用最先进的技术、最清晰的思路、最强大的调度、最传奇的配乐来制作一个目下无尘且暮气沉沉的故事我无话可说
