Like, I didn't even think he'd need to tell the other magicians that locks can be picked, but the escape artist? Who had picked locks just a few moments ago in the film? aslkdasl. I guess they wanted to give him lines, since she had a weird romantic subplot to be involved in. I did enjoy the film, there were just so many odd bits in it that kept putting me off. I wish they'd had an extra script editor at the end, to just make it a bit less rubbish. And since the whole thing was about tricks and not really knowing what the characters were doing, I didn't feel like we got much character depth on the main magicians by the end of it. The only person I felt like I really understood was the FBI guy, and the Interpol woman, and I disliked him and boggled at their relationship for other reasons. But yeah. I enjoyed it. I just hope next time they make a magician heist film, they make it less rubbish.

I love the idea of you crocheting while inter-dimensional horror is happening in a podcast nearby. I have slight trouble listening to Welcome To Night Vale, just because if I just listen to it I find myself tuning out and missing bits, and if I do other things while listening to it I get distracted and miss bits. Also, with everything that's going on in my life at the moment, I'm not always in the mood for horror, however comedy-flavoured. But I do love it, and it's nice that it's genuinely good. Not always the case with the things fandom at large loves.
