  1. What is that aspect ratio? Looks super skinny.

  2. Ah, rough pants, the nemesis of velvet pants.

Wow, they nailed the A24 trailer aesthetic perfectly. With a montage of random weird shots, vague but sinister voiceover, and dissonant creepy music, even something as banal as denim can be made to look pretty disturbing.

I actually looked up “did Flat Head and Iron Heart do a collab?”

Reminds me of the ol “Star Wars quotes, but with the word ‘pants’ substituted in” game.

And major props for re-using the Akira soundtrack. When the background music changes to that, it’s time, or past time, to run away.

A24 has been hitting home runs. Unless I happen to hear from like-minded friends that it’s a POS… well… we shall see.

And there is a prequel (or is there?) called Smooth Pants.
I kid not.

Yeah, it really is amazing how many A24 movies turn out to be really good. I mean, they have had their fair share of bad movies, but just scrolling through the titles on Wikipedia…that’s a damn good batting average.
