- kurtis connor literally stole my title. i was gonna call this video "i'm worried, darling" and then he just names his podcast episode that? so rude to steal such an original idea from a small creator.

thanks. or should i say thanks! i wanna convey excitement while also not sounding like an email where you're desperate to let the other person know you're not in a bad mood; in fact, you're excited to be working together.

I feel bad for Flo honestly, she's been classy and avoided stirring or commenting on the drama. She's amazing and so talented and I hope that all this drama doesn't ruin her reputation.
I genuinely think she will come out of this smelling like roses and be juuuust fine. She's handling it with a lot of skill and grace.
@@clarerichardson8770 the fact that she has taken photos of herself drinking a cocktail and not going to the press stuff. Then wearing a truly amazing look with the photo caption of it that says ‘Ms Flo’ and it’s ridiculously amazing.
she doesn't need your sympathy
@@nickc3856 jeez bruther chill
@@nickc3856 Nobody's giving sympathy. We're giving total delight. Bye.
Yeah you're right really unfair putting him next to Academy Award nominee Florence Pugh for his first leading roll and then paying him 4x as much
citation on the 4x the salary part? (also possible he didnt know)
and he has no talent
@@Z-Mikes00 Variety reported it. Olivia Wilde has now disputed this claim but I surely do not believe a word that comes out of her mouth now that there is documented proof she is a liar. I also work in the industry so word gets around about these things.
@@jumpinjoint tons of musical talent! acting is 🥴
@@kellysgueglia187 he has no talent. hes a mediocre white man that people fawn over for wearing pink sometimes
Okay the “as Don’t worry and Darling respectively” joke hit me out of nowhere and it’s great
Oh shit, that one flew right over my head lol
Oh ik nothing about the movie so i thought those were their names haha
@@v0id_d3m0n idk why this is so funny to me since you mean it when you say you know nothing, like literally not even the name lol
Calling Pugh “Miss Flo” like she’s some uppity 19th century governess is so condescending to my ear
Miss Flo was a euphemism for menstruation back in the day. Hmmm
Right?! To me it sounds as if Olivia's the one who's been put in charge of some wayward child that has no idea what's good for her (instead of a celebrated and well-educated actress). It's really, really gross.
was very shady, she's don't give a fuck.
Lkok
Hes adjust a weak "male"
I really hope this gets the attention it deserves, this is such a well written nuanced take on the whole mess. It’s been so great seeing your channel grow and you definitely deserve it!
aww thanks!
She wants equality, IMO that includes facing consequences for being caught lying. Florence is handling the situation well by saying nothing. I'm guessing she's contracted to go to the premiere. I can see her walking down the red carpet entering the building then to an emergency exit that has a car waiting outside to take her home.
That’s basically what happened lol except she had to go back to Budapest to film dune 2
That’s the thing with feminists, they want the perks and none of the responsibilities, that’s why they think they can lie about others like that in public with no ramifications and cry when the consequences come knocking.
@Kate Moore yup
Great video but you got 2 things wrong.
1. Olivia wasn’t married to Jason S., they were only engaged.
2. The papers who were served to Olivia Wilde were not divorce papers, it were custody papers.
thank you for the corrections!
Makes it worse tho for Olivia
"only engaged"?
Not the only two things wrong - he also has zero clue when it comes to UK accents.
Also, she didn’t leave Jason for Harry. She and Jason split up a year before she started dating Harry. Even Jason said so. Don’t spread this misinformation.
I’m honestly more disappointed than anything. Disappointed that this movie that could have been great is probably going to suck, disappointed that Olivia Wilde is not a good person, disappointed that she seemingly threw away her feminist ideals to try to get a known abuser back in her movie, and disappointed in how Florence Pugh, an incredible actress who deserves so much more respect, is being treated.
Agreed. Deep disappointment sums it up.
Honestly, though, Wilde has been "slipping" for a long time, it's just that everyone kinda ignored it until it got really bad
@@Ashen.Elixer I don’t think we ignored it, it just was never talked about in most circles so how was the average person supposed to know? Hindsight is 20/20. I know I’m not the only person who has more going on and rarely ever spends time reading celebrity gossip articles, nor am I following social media pages or magazine websites regarding celebrities lives and drama.
Disappointed is a great description of all of this. Of course ppl are still ppl. But it does not stop us feeling disappointed in the actions of those we have thought/ been shown, of who they were. It is always disappointing when you learn how shitty people can be. I hope Olivia gets therapy. It seems like she needs to check her ego. As it can be dangerous.
I do think that Florence will carry the film. It's a shame cos Olivia is a great director but seems like a horrible headache to work with.
Honestly this whole thing sounds like a nightmare for any serious actor. I feel for all sane people involved!
flo got screwed but she’s stayed classy and unbothered thru it all (also the larry mention gave me whiplash)
I think the difference between trailers for Nope and trailers for DWD is we know Jordan Peele's directing/writing style - he's proven himself. The Nope teaser I saw and I was like "oh yeah let's go". But Olivia Wilde has 1 movie under her belt as a director - she hasn't proven herself. I've seen the DWD teaser and I have absolutely no idea wtf it's about. It looks aesthetically interesting, but what is it about? The drama bts has completely overshadowed the actual movie.
Loved the video!
thanks! yeah, i think because peele has more movies and they all have a similar tone he can do trailers that give away less plot and people will still go see it
Read the book Stepford Wives. The movie is ripping off that story
@@destinywhigham7961 i thought it was a stepford wives remake from the trailer so I’m shocked to find out it isn’t lmfao
@@destinywhigham7961 That’s what I also thought of when I watched the trailer.
I saw nope in the cinema without knowing what it is about and without seeing the trailer… it was the shittiest movie ever, i wish i saw the trailer because i would have said nope to this movie
From all I've read, poor Flo was put through so much. Olivia Wilde sounds messy and narcissistic.
same
well what you've read clearly excludes Flo texting Shia directly about not her not showing up to rehearsals lol
@@msz9523 Shia is a serial abuser and I wouldn't want to work with him either. Especially, not in a romantic context.
@@lotusthemermaid girl how am I defending Shia? it's Florence who was friendos with him
@@msz9523 yeah I read the email and texts, and even though I agree that Shia is an abuser, etc. It doesn’t look good at all on Olivia’s end considering that Shia and Florence never worked together in person, he quit before they started filming, and that he emailed Olivia asking for her to tell the truth… not to mention with all the rumors of Florence and Olivia not getting along on set, this is a dumpster fire lmao
ty for this explainer of what the fuck everyone on tiktok is talking about
this is why i do it
Yes because if its on tiktok its mean its true. Tik tok whos members are barely over 20 and the majority recently got catfished by a pepto bismal coloured sauce video. What a great credible source to gather facts. Remember these are the same people who shed tears because a filter told them not having a symmetrical face made them ugly. What im trying to say is most tiktok members are the homer simpsons of the social media world and are only on tiktok because its full of other similar dunces devoid of an actual personalities with little skill to articulate an individual thought
Florence Pugh is one of the greater actresses of this decade for sure.
um are we talking about the same person 😂
You kids need to raise your standards lol
I mean, other than lady macbeth, midsommar, and little women I don't think she has done anything that good, maybe the falling? I mean, that movie sucks but she is the only good thing in it
@@reshirman Lady Macbeth is so underrated, she was great in it! She was KILLER as Cordelia in King Lear with Anthony Hopkins. That was the first thing I ever saw her in and I was instantly drawn to her and hoped to see more of her. And she is so fun and charismatic as Yelena in all the Marvel stuff, a real breath of fresh air for me in those flicks.
She and Anya Taylor-Joy are the absolute standouts when I think of "new actresses I've admired in the last decade."
Regardless of the drama, I'll be watching for Florence cos she kills it in everything she does!!
Same! She has yet to deliver a bad performance and I have no doubt she will outshine any flaws.
Rather not support it.
Don't support this Olivia Wilde shit
@sheeta I'll probably watch it in theaters just for flo, I'll "seperate the art and the artist" or whatever the saying is that goes around
@@payt00n 😂😂😂😂😂
you perfectly highlighted my exact thoughts watching the trailers for NOPE, the first released trailer was a masterpiece, and so was the movie but i wish i hadn’t seen the second trailer before i saw the film
right! i just wish more studios felt like they didn't need to telegraph the movie in a trailer. just give me a general idea of the vibe and if it's interesting i'll go
Yeah I thought it looked really good, super interesting. All of this drama is ridiculous and who even knows what is true. I will still see the movie but wait until I can do so at home.
i didnt see the second one and i loved it!
This is why I always refuse to see any trailers after the 1st one. And even I get spoiled with only 1st trailer from time to time. Those in charge of marketing are horrible at their work
SPOILS: Thankfully I didn't see the second trailer and went in COMPLETELY blind. I didn't even know it was about aliens! So cool.
Harry getting the lead in a movie with little acting experience and skill while sleeping with the director? Hhmmm
Harry Styles is the lead in other soon to come movies like “my policeman”
Also he’s a big, flashy, marketable name. That’s a way bigger deal to producers than I think most people give it credit for. Even if he ends up not being very good, he’ll still get asses in seats.
@@tatehildyard5332 I feel so bad for actors who didn't win a popularity contest. Who have scrapped a living whilst going to drama/acting school in hopes of getting a good role and showing their skills. Meanwhile Harry just has friends (usually powerful white men) in high places with connections to the industry (how do you think he got Dunkirk? the director is British) James Corden, Nick Grimshaw, Zane Lowe, countless journalists, Sony ceo, possibly Simon Cowell. Then sleeps with director making his co workers feel uncomfortably and unsupported in the workplace, whilst harry is chill getting easy street and easy publicity throwing Olivia under the bus when he joined in cheating (and or PR contract) too. He must be loving the limelight and fact his name is thrown around with more seasoned actors.
i probably never would have watched this movie in theaters anyway since it has so much sex apparently (nothing more uncomfortable than watching people bone in a room full of other people, not for me thanks) but the bad press certainly doesnt help
Really? It must be a cultural thing. I have no problem watching sex in cinemas.
@@kassiogomes8498 sex scenes in movies make me uncomfortable 95% of the time. i think it’s residual embarrassment from accidentally watching a sex scene with a parent in the room 😂 but on a more serious note, they are hard to sit through when it’s drawn out and gratuitous.
@@kaylabey "gratuitous sex"? Lol. Its just sex! It isn't violence or some other crazy thing. It's universally known and most adults do it. It's like saying "gratuitous alcohol consumption". It's just part of being an adult. It's life. It isn't taboo.
@@kassiogomes8498 i guess that comes down to a preference. i’ve seen so many movies that just have sex scenes thrown in out of nowhere. if it serves the plot then fine, but a lot of movies use them for marketing purposes.
@@kaylabey it doesn't have to serve the plot. It's like brushing your teeth, drinking, reading a book, etc. It's used to make it feel natural. The movies emulate the human life, and sex is a big part of our lives.
it bein a choice between harry style and the transformers guy is crazy
Excuse me, I think you mean the guy from Holes.
the transformer guy was a abuser, so i would go with harry styles too
Timeline: Shia LaBeouf was not accused of abuse when he took on this role. Florence reluctance to work his way was for unknown reasons. There is no evidence to support reluctance to work with shia because of discomfort outside of Olivia Wilde’s narrative which is somewhat manufactured.
I’m sure Florence had her reasons for not working with him, but let’s not make the error of rewriting reality to suit our beliefs.
even when Shia wasn't accused, that man is so volatile so publicly I wouldn't wanna stand near him for a million bucks
@@toxicat florence very willingly did want to work with him at first though, ppl are v much distorting reality to fit a narrative. she had no problem and even said she was excited to work w him, until rehearsals started and whatever happened that became a problem between the actors happened.
@@phosphenevision i think thats what they might’ve meant- that hes so volatile and aggressive irl that her opinion of him quickly soured
@@toxicat agreed. He sounds really intense. Some of that can be good for the art, bad for the person (and anyone in his vicinity). My point is how folks are distorting narrative to suit their own biases (i.e. they're all doing what Olivia Wilde did...).
@@phosphenevision agree with this.
im really concerned for olivia's career now honestly. men in director positions have done awful things that never made headlines and they got film after film but women never get the same forgiveness. you cannot afford to mess up as a woman in a powerful position especially with the way tik tok circulates and blows up conflicts.
Yes exactly. Really in the grand scheme of things these scandals aren’t horrendous - just drama and personal conflicts, but the bar is much higher for female directors/actors. I hope that if she continues to make quality work and limits her interviews it’ll just be old news eventually
Well when someone projects themselves as holier than thou and it comes out that they are hypocrites it’s usually far worse backlash than someone who is openly shit or just doesn’t pretend to be the amazing person 24/7
It's literally the other way around what? Women get away with pretty much everything, there are women who literally ADMITTED to drug men and nothing happened. If you're a man and there is a single allegation with no basis against you you're already fucked, or at least instantly condemned by many people
Even when women make hits and aren't controversial they don't get jobs it's so annoying
She's a fake feminist, supposrts a pedophile, is friends with one (a really close one), is shady towards other people, she's supporting abusers and other sex offenders....
I can go on and on. Yeah keep this woman jobless
From the reviews it seems Harry was out of his depth which was highlighted more acting with such a great actress.
this is a really great and nuanced look at the situation! also literally yeah about jordan peele movies not needing trailers aldhdjsk
Like totally fact check me into the sun on this, but I've heard there was no intimacy coordinator on this film, that y'know has a lot of intimacy. Like that's a standard to have to avoid being unethical to your actors, its important having that 3rd party as a go between for the director and the actors. This would especially be important when the director is dating one of the actors! Again, yeet me into the giant hydrogen ball that lights our solar system if the lack of intimacy coordinator is not fact and was made up to make Olivia look bad, but if its true then....yikes.
I find that hard to believe cause Olivia Wilde's talked about uncomfortable intimacy scenes in film before
@@DoctorXander Again fact check me for sure!! It's just I've yet to find anything that states otherwise, its all been "Florence kept asking for an intimacy coordinator, Olivia due to dating Harry felt they could forego having one". Also for Imdb idk if they'd list it as intimacy coordinator straight out or not. Regardless the Don't Worry Darling crew page definitely has a stunt coordinator plus everyone's stunt doubles but idk if its all just going to referred to as stunt there or not so who knows.
I'm sorry I haven't got that far yet but totally agree with everything BUT the bit about Harry's accent being a ton of different accents. That's just his northern accent. We really sound like that lol.
Honestly, his accent sounded pretty consistent to my ear, but I'm half deaf, so maybe I'm not the best judge 😅
That's what I was thinking! (I'm Scottish tho, not English)
It's just ignorant yanks not understanding that there are more English accents than the BBC accent.
the amount of times ive tried to explain whats happening to my mom is 3 too many, i will now just send her this video
i need to take notes on this video so i can tell my parents about the whole situation and not the pieces they know
there’s also text messages that came out between shia and florence and they just complicate this whole thing so much cause it seems like they were friendly with each other. as for harry, there’s lots of people from north of england saying he has their accent (he is from manchester) and reviewers said that it makes sense in the context of the movie. this whole movie is a mess, the drama shadows the movie so much and it’s a shame. also, the whole harry spat on chris thing is so dumb lmao you can clearly see he didn’t in multiple videos. olivia is embarrassing and florence will clearly shine.
I'm from 'up North' and I love his accent, but historically Northern people and accents were considered and painted as uncultured and a sign of simplicity or lack of education so there will be some class and cultural prejudice there. He's not a member of the Eton/Oxbridge gang like Tom Hiddleston etc. so it's more of an uphill battle in that regard.
Harry very clearly spits on him whether it be by accident or on purpose, there’s a visible drop of spit that litterally lands in Chris lap, even causing him to look down, stare at it, scoff in shock, and shake his head. Like just stop. We get it you’ll defend Harry till the vultures pick ur bones but there an actual video of spit coming out of his mouth. Stop saying it didn’t happen.
@@dennydarkko I have no personal feelings about Harry Styles, and if he did that it's disgusting, but I will say that we're lucky he's not from Glasgow. A favourite insult of some lads I knew was that they'd defecate in your mouth.
this is the first video of yours ive ever watched, and i immediately subscribed. you are very funny and eloquent. additionally, you hit the nail on the head regarding everything you spoke about. it’s rare to see someone acknowledge faults on both sides of a debate (the fact that olivia wilde will be attacked almost no matter what because she’s a woman and she’s dating harry styles, and, on the other hand, how olivia defenders will downplay sound criticism of olivia through the claim that the critic is merely a harry styles-depraved sexist), but you actually did so! you are, clearly, incredibly intelligent. i let out a sigh of relief because it looks like not everyone on the internet is a complete idiot
My thoughts exactly!! Very well articulated (both this comment and the video). Immediately subbed as well
@@SamFerro aw thank you for this comment! i appreciate it :)
I loved the way you covered this, and am super impressed how you managed to take a genre that has been done to death & still made it feel entertaining & fresh. really looking forward to seeing what new stuff you put out in the future!
THANK YOU for calling out the puncuation of the title. It's like the difference between:
"Don't eat, Grandma" and "Don't eat Grandma."
Commas save lives.
I feel like it'll make more sense with the plot of the full movie. From the trailer, i kind of interpret it as someone saying "don't worry darling, I'll take care of it" or something but i could be wrong obviously
@@ose5226 i’m really hoping it’ll turn out to be like not as a phrase, but an order. As in dont disrupt or inconvenience Darling(like someone’s name is Darling). That’ll be a really cool way to play on grammat
Thanks you did a very good job of representing almost all the issues from multiple sides. I’ve watched three of these by now and yours was the best, as you had a more nuanced but sassy approach.
The reason why we stan Miss Flo: she's a good role model, talented as heck, classy, very sure of her self.
And the only saving grace of this movie. (according to all the reviews so far)
I'll say it, Harry's acting looked cringe, how you gonna go from casting an actor like Shia (I know he's an abuser and I'm not excusing that but he can act well) to casting someone like Harry.
You can’t judge someone’s acting from a 20s clip his accent fits the role according to the reviews. The reviews that also said he did a good job. The clip was meant to be misleading so ppl would watch the movie with low expectations then it’s be easy to satisfy them. This video btw has a lot of miss information
Harry's name will be a huge draw for the movie. I'm talking of box office/ ticket sales. I'm sure younger female audiences will watch the movie just because of Harry's involvement. But i agree it's very hard for him to match the talent level of actors who have put years into perfecting their craft.
A good role model..? Just saying, we barely know her. She’s incredibly beautiful & seems quite respectful but it’s unwise to look up to celebs, to people you don’t know. You’ll be lead astray & disappointed. Take inspiration, sure, but personally, all my role models are dogs.
@@skullsaintdead dogs are a bit on the bench for me with the amount of attacks I've encountered with them ajd the even worse ones I've heard about so I'll stick to cats but good comment anyway 💀
@@payt00n man and here i am, being someone who’s gotten attacked by cats and trust dogs more😭😂
Idk I feel like so much of the commentary around this situation comes from a place of internalized misogyny. Like maybe Olivia and Florence don’t like each other but also people love turning women against each other. A lot of the “evidence” that people have for them not liking each other seems really circumstantial to me. And people are reading so much into a few posts that Florence posted and some out of context screenshots from Shia lebouf. Like I don’t want to defend Olivia defending Shia, but I also see a lot of people reading the “evidence” in bad faith and projecting their obsession with Harry Styles onto two women who are probably fine with each other tbh.
literally it's all based on rumours and things taken completely out of context
@@phosphenevision case in point, the spitting rumor 🙄
It’s such stupid drama created by people with nothing better to do tbh
okay, I know I could be very wrong and just assuming this from the trailer- but is this movie not just a THIRD make of “the stepford wives” ?? am I the only one who remembers that incredible groundbreaking film and it’s equally funny and entertaining remake with the fabulous nicole Kidman and Bette Midler?? DWD looks exactly the same. I really like Florence Pugh, and honestly I would have loved to see Shia play alongside her (look, I can agree that he’s a raging narcissistic abusive asshole- but he’s a GREAT actor…Harry…is not🤐) but if Olivia thinks she’s making something groundbreaking ummm hmm…she might be confused ?
Exactly what the trailer reminded me of!
i think that’s the point? i immediately recognized the similarities to stepford wives when i saw the trailer and that’s what intrigued me
I took it as a more of a psychedelic stepford wives
I hope it’s like the stepford wives but with a modern twist. Hopefully not just a complete ripoff.
@@toxicsugarart2103 as long as the mindfuckery is cranked up compared to the older versions I'll be happy lol
Omg, another "Laurie, you're being mean" fan!!
Maybe it’s just me, but I could see Shia LaBeouf in this role. Although his real life problems overshadow it, the dude can act and has quite a range. Anyone who’s seen Peanut Butter Falcon probably knows what I’m taking about. He can act endearing and loveable when he wants to.
Edit: Forgot to mention his Hot Ones interview as well. Surprisingly charming.
Implying the main characters are named Don’t Worry and Darling is so funny
12:51 “Something’s ALittleBitOff” Your delivery of that was perfect 😂
I'd been excited for this film since it was first announced. But now it's just a huge let down. I feel bad for Florence for being caught up in the mess. Thank you for the take on the situation (though I am extremely late).
Zach Braff and Florence dated for 3 years
+
Zach Braff and Jason Sudeikis are close friends

Jason and Flo know each other (extra points for her role in Ted Lasso)
THEREFORE: Flo upset when Jason Suddy gets cheated on in front of her!
just watched a 16 min video about a movie I never heard of or even care abt. good stuff!
This was a well-balanced take & I appreciated it 👏🏻
I wearily clicked in here because I was curious about the whole drama but I wasn't expecting such a nuanced review of the whole thing, thank you so much!
For those that have beef with Shia (understandably so) check out his “real ones” (I think lol) episode. It’s a podcast and they talk about what he’s been up to. Sounds like he’s been in AA is married to someone he put through a lot of bullshit and finally realizes how his behavior has impacted others. It’s pretty interesting.
In fairness to him, I have never seen a man apologise for abusing their partner publicly. They always deflect, blame, lawyer up etc. I cannot abide assault or SA or emotional manipulation/control but acknowledging you have a problem is the first step to change. I can’t say I’d feel comfortable going out of my way to support him though.
@@skullsaintdead lol he's honestly just done all of those things tho after apologizing and during the apology.
@@bethanychatman9531 You may well be right but speaking as someone who got an out-of-the-blue apology from my attempted rapist during MeToo, those few words of apology freed me in a way I didn't even know I was imprisoned. It's validating to know you weren't to blame & he knew what he was doing was wrong, even that he'd been ruminating over it for years (id never thought I was especially at fault but now I have no guilt/shame about it at all). It will never absolve my attempted rapist from guilt (indeed, admitting fault & apologising opens you to criminal & civil charges) & I will never forget what he did, but for me (note: defo not true for all survivors) it was the single best gift ive ever been given & I accepted his apology (but ill never truly trust a man again). I think, perhaps, as a society, we should be more open to abusers accepting fault because it might help prevent it from happening (e.g. 1st step to change is accepting you have a problem). Again, im not the victim here & i have no right to tell her how to feel, but my experience with apologies/accepting fault has been very positive so I personally wouldn't dismiss it outright (& id hope abusers would be more self-aware of their actions going forward).
@@skullsaintdead John Lennon was pretty open about his previous behaviour and seemed to have some remorse towards the end of his life.
@@skullsaintdead he did deny what she said as his first public response to her lawsuit. Literally denied everything she said. Probably just gave up and tried to gain public sentiment afterward lol.
the wit and humour in this video is incredible. i god damn love your personality.
Please, for a moment I honestly thought “Don’t worry” and “Darling” were the characters names.
Dude you are hilarious. I've never seen you before but just overjoyed by your comedic timing and wit. You're such a joy to listen to!!!!
I like the way u addressed so many nuances and called people out without unnecessarily tearing them apart like some ppl do the SECOND they get the chance. Very well spoken 🙌🏾
Just wanna say this was a great way to uplift women while criticizing a woman
I would love to get to a place where we can just freely call out bad behavior regardless of who is doing it but more often than not calling out bad behavior when it comes from marginalized groups inadvertently makes that "bad" person a representative of that group
For example it's very easy for a misogynist to use this as a reason why women shouldn't direct, or racists having a field day with the jussie smollett situation
These actions shouldn't reflect on an entire community but they still do and I really appreciate you taking the extra care in this video to be fair but mindful
maybe I'm living under a rock, but I had no idea about this movie until this drama
Great video, really liked your take on it. Not overdramatising the situation, funny while presenting the facts as we currently know them. Bit disappointed with what Olivia SEEMS to be like considering what she wants to appear like. Dont know if that's too mean to say or if I expressed myself right. No one should be put on a platform and be like the example feminist, but her throwing Florence under the bus like that to try and keep Shia in the movie.. auch
Man do I hate when celebrities make message videos while they are driving. Like « wow look, i’m so busy i can’t even sit down for a minute to talk to you while looking at the camera ». That shows they wouldn’t interrupt their routine to address you on a serious subject. Cheap power move.
I think you don't really understand the one direction fanbase if you don't think stirring up drama between two women (one of whom is dating Harry) to generate eyes isn't a GREAT marketing strategy
behind the scenes interpersonal relationships between stars and coded messages through the media are EXACTLY What they go crazy for, and any Twitter activity is good activity. Especially considering the studio is strapped for cash right now.
I wonder if Wilde wasn’t actually the person wanting Shia on the movie and instead she was speaking for maybe some higher ups say the shareholders? Like “we will only fund this project if you get Shia on the cast” idk I just don’t see why she personally would want him in the movie! There are so many better actors that ARENT abusers
What I got from the texts, videos and interviews is 1- Florence was the one not showing up to rehearsals 2- It's understandable because it was the height of covid and a friend of hers had died and she had to travel for the funeral. 3- Shia was feeling rejected by this, in a very self centered way, and was probably complaining/threatening to leave to Olivia multiple times. 4- Olivia was probably just trying to keep the peace by feeding his ego, which is questionable but it's not like she was bullying Florence. 5- Ultimately he either left on his own, or something else happened that made her decide to let him leave/fire him, that's an unknown. 6- In the end, she did choose Florence since his tantrum was basically about Florence, if she was choosing Shia he would be in the movie and not Florence. 7- All of this happened before the allegations, it was wrong of Olivia/Warnerbros to try to spin this as a consequence of that, when it was months after, they shot themselves in the foot because it brings their credibility into question. 8- Shia has a reputation for lying, manipulating, and going back on his word. When FKA first came out with allegation he admitted to it and apologized; then he retracted and said it was false. He made an autobiographical movie which showed his father being abusive to him, then he said he lied and his dad was never abusive towards. He is a very volatile person. 9- Also it doesn't seem like Florence and Shia ever really met on set? It's confusing
@@phosphenevision it's a case of, "I'm a feminist, I should look like it" move for promotions. Saying she fired Shia (an abuser), fits the narrative eh.
@@jacquesdaniels2435 I don't disagree, I can't know for sure but I do think it's possible. It's opportunistic and kinda shady if true but still don't think she deserve 2 be villainized 4 it. Criticized yes, but people are acting like she abused someone. Shia is the abuser & proven manipulator here, feels like ppl should be focusing more on that and considering if trusting everything he posts isn't for an ulterior reason... specially considering a lot of what fka described on the DV case was pretty intense emotional abuse.
@@phosphenevision I'm also wondering if her saying she was protecting Florence wasn't so much in context to the lawsuit and what has since come out, but instead to how he was acting in the moment. If he was throwing tantrums (and I wouldn't be surprised if he was being volatile or aggressive in that situation) before he even met Florence then it would be a completely reasonable conclusion that he was not going to provide a safe working environment once they were together. Especially with how many intimate scenes there seem to be. That alone would have kept me from casting him to begin with given his history even before the lawsuit and despite him going to rehab. He should have to prove himself before he's cast in a movie with that many intimate scenes between him and a costar.
Also, in regards to if he quit or was fired, I don't know why it can't be possible that both happened. It seems like the official quitting was with WB, not Olivia. It's entirely possible he quit with WB and Olivia separately fired him with WB and no one higher up bothered to tell either one it was already taken care of. So, both would be technically right without either lying 🤷🏻♀️
@@phosphenevision his email to Olivia post drama just screams emotional manipulation to me and everyone is eating it up which just makes my skin crawl.
Olivia wouldn’t have been served those papers 📑 at a public appearance if she would have accepted them in private. If you keep refusing and avoiding the papers they get brought to you at work or somewhere in public where you can’t hide in your house. Petty behavior on her part
the line about the catholic church made me holler
Damn…Harry really said that dialogue in 12 accents 😂🤣
I will protect Flo with all my life. She doesn’t deserve all this awfulness
I didn't even know there was drama behind this movie ngl. But this was really interesting
I’ve seen tiny pieces about vague drama on tumblr so thank you for making this so I can start to understand what’s going on at least a little lol
Nope was so good though. I really like Florence Pugh so I’m excited to go see this movie I think it’ll be good but unfortunately I’ve already been told that it’s kind of like the Truman show plus Stepford wives and so I feel like I already know what’s gonna happen in the movie 🤷🏻♀️
I would’ve definitely went with a Leonardo DiCaprio before harry , he would have been perfect for jacks role I would even say a Zach effron would also be a good fit he really proved his great acting skills in the recreation of the Ted Bundy story I really hope harry stlyes shows out and proves us wrong
i rlly wish too, but in the few parts of the movie that i’ve seen, harry’s performance doesn’t seem promising :/ maybe i’m making too harsh of a judgement tho and i’m interested to see it and hopefully my mind changes !!
@@jennahayles4581 imma have faith in him , let’s just hope he really Taps in to the character and pushed himself to deliver 💕
@@shakanuhglorie8444 fr !!! he was super good in in dunkirk so i think the clips were just bad representations
am i the only one who didnt like booksmart? especially directing? that movie was all over the place
Praises Pugh’s Perfectly Professional Personal Performance maybe?
I am hereby coining this incident, The Affair With Styles. I don't care if the book has nothing do to with the film, they're both... stories that have mysteries in them, according to the internet.
Apparently Jason and Olivia, have split, can anyone tell me when this happened in relation to Olivia's relationship with Styles?
Here's the thing about Olivia Wilde... if you have a problem getting along with so many people, maybe the problem is you.
Listen I spoke to Olivia on multiple occasions over the years ever since she did charity work in Haiti, she sent me a personal video to thank me for a very small donation I had made which she really appreciated (I was a teenager back then, I couldn’t afford more), she really is a very generous and selfless person but she is very determined in her career. I think it’s a shame people try to bring her down over stupid drama. By the way, she never married Jason and they split a year prior to her filming the movie.
very thankful for this video for the sheer fact that i thought she said “wake up from this flow” and was very confused by the entire thing thinking she was talking about some kind of bad trip or something
4:41 the lawsuit was in december 2020, shia was cast early 2020, he had already left the production before the lawsuit.
post is from april 2020 btw, can't link it but link ends w p/B_YFrFQFjId/
edit: other comment got deleted but basically on florence's insta you can see her talking about being excited to work on don't worry darling and citing olivia, chris pine and shia v happily. whatever happened during production early on wasn't about shia's DV
I'm gonna post a response I made on a comment about my understanding of the situation 4 anyone who cares:
What I got from the texts, videos and interviews is
0- Florence had no problem working with Shia. She has posted about being excited to work with Olivia, Chris and Shia in April 2020 which is when the casting was released. If she had a problem working w him after this date is unknown.
1- Florence was not showing up to rehearsals.
2- It's understandable because it was the height of covid and a friend of hers had died and she had to travel for the funeral.
3- Shia was feeling rejected by this, in a very self centered way, and was probably complaining/threatening to leave to Olivia multiple times.
4- Olivia was probably just trying to keep the peace by feeding his ego, which is questionable but it's not like she was bullying Florence.
5- Ultimately he either left on his own, or something else happened that made her decide to let him leave/fire him, that's an unknown.
6- In the end, she did choose Florence since his tantrum was basically about Florence, if she was choosing Shia he would be in the movie and not Florence.
7- All of this happened before the allegations, it was wrong of Olivia/Warnerbros to try to spin this as a consequence of that, when it was months after, they shot themselves in the foot because it brings their credibility into question.
8- Shia has a reputation for lying, manipulating, and going back on his word. When FKA first came out with allegation he admitted to it and apologized; then he retracted and said it was false. He made an autobiographical movie which showed his father being abusive to him, then he said he lied and his dad was never abusive towards. He is a very volatile person.
9- Also it doesn't seem like Florence and Shia ever really met on set? It seems they only interacted via facetime, calls and texts. But its confusing.
Also ppl are saying Florence was paid less than Harry entirely based on rumors. Neither of them spoke on it. Olivia said they were paid equally/fairly, and said Florence is the main star of the movie.
No one:
Me: Staring at that standing hair the whole time 👁👄👁
It's so cool seeing how your channel has gotten more attention, you have a really clear talent for making videos like this. it's great to see a commentary channel gain traction that isn't just stale takes
Olivia Wilde sounded like a stereotypical male director in that video to Shia.....it was weird and uncomfortable
I watched Booksmart expecting a cool movie and instead I was so annoyed with how terribly predictable and boring it was. I'd love to know what anyone sees in it.
I hated it too. I was so embarassed I dragged a friend into the cinema with me.
I was hoping it would be something like the amazing The Edge of Seventeen.
@@XeaRae Yeah I watched that movie the next day and it was much better!! I'm glad I'm not the only one lol
@@XeaRae the edge of seventeen is so good! i just watched it a few days ago and hailee’s performance was incredible
Predictable doesn't mean bad. I think it's a hilarious movie that's very relateable for young awkward people
@@DoctorXander that's fair. But personally I also disliked the characters which made their predictability more irritating. Honestly I barely remember what happened in the movie at this point- I just remember hating it lol
It doesn’t seem like Florence wants this movie to be seen. And that’s totally fine!
Probably would have been a better movie with Shia tbh
Really happy I found this channel. You made tons of great points. I hope that you get the notoriety you deserve!
THIS is the explanation video I’ve been looking for. Well done
Everytime you upload a video, it makes me so happy I found you. You’re take on things are just good soup.
wait this isnt jake doolittle
😳
I need Jake, Harry, and Duncan all in one video
Thank you for recapping everything, really liked your delivery :)
Just found your channel and I’m hooked my dude keep up the good sht
i like the variety of pigeons in the background.
I like video - thank you for video. Video is blessing. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
so true…. video IS blessing!
You look like Paul Dano… I see this as an absolute win!
How often has a male director been lambasted for their actions like this? I think the whole thing is awful. I remember Olivia from House many years ago. I hope this blows over. Yes she did thevwrong thing with her Miss Flo comment but it was a private message and she was massaging Shia's ego and probably didn't mean it and never thought it would be leaked. Then again she shouldn't have said what she did in the Variety interview as she did make it sound like she'd fired him. Ugh, what a stupid mess!
This was great! Love that there's no background music
Which movie had a worse PR run so far, The Flash or Don’t Worry Darling
I have to agree 100% that the marketing focuses wayy to much on sex. Everything I’ve seen about it has been sex. I literally dont even know what the plot is supposed to be about. I straight up thought it was just a porno at first
Finally someone is talking about this Chaos!!1 Thank You
I know absolutely nothing about film and celebrities or pop culture. I just like the sound of your voice funny man. Don’t know how I ended up here but I’m staying
Lol, I'm so glad I didn't see the 2nd Nope trailer. I'm also sorry for your loss 🙏🏾
Shia would have been amazing in the dramatic parts
Ngl it’s weird hearing my birth year as a marker for how hold something is 🧍🏻♂️
*old not hold lmao
I agree that Olivia is focusing more on the sex, instead of the plot of the movie, it's just weird....
I appreciate that this wasn’t a slam piece but a thoughtful discussion on what is and isn’t ethical or believable, comparing it too with how much male directors / people in power get away with. And, the new girl part won it for me!! Lol thanks for a good watch.
Not gonna lie, your grammar joke about the missing comma is why I just subscribed 😂
This is the best recap of all this drama lol thank you
I totally agree with you on the Nope trailers
"jason, wait your turn" my mouth DROPPED
I think Shia could have been great in the role as he’s a great actor.
