Trauma Profiteering in Jordan Peele's 'Nope'
Nope succeeds tremendously in dealing with higher concepts in an engaging and highly entertaining manner without sacrificing theme or personality.

The music video for A.G. Cook's "Idyll," directed by Daniel Swan, creates a surreal, digital dreamscape. It features abstract shapes, glowing textures, and a soft pastel color palette, blending organic and synthetic elements. The video utilizes rapid cuts and rhythmic pulses, creating a hypnotic visual experience that mirrors the song's electronic sound. Swan's use of geometric forms and smooth, flowing animations evokes a futuristic, artificial landscape, reflecting the tension between nature and technology. The result is a mesmerizing, otherworldly journey through a meticulously crafted digital world, perfectly complementing A.G. Cook's hyper-modern music.

I write for a diversity-focused film review blog, so I’ll be honest: I really wanted to like Pretty Lethal. Starring Maddie Ziegler, Lana Condor, Iris Apatow, Avantika, and Millicent Simmonds, Amazon Prime’s new thriller seemed like it would be a girl power movie about dancers with a horror action twist. Sort of a Suspiria for teens. But with shallow and unlikeable characters, a confusing plot, an overreliance on violence, and cringey dialogue, any fun the movie started out with was quickly lost. What was left was a faint echo of greater horror movies about dancers made before.
