Instead of an overanalyzation (of a movie) thread, let's hyper focus on small things

This can be movies or TV, and as broad as you want or as minute/mundane as you want. Just remember to label spoilers as necessary.

And as always, just because you gripe about a movie doesn't mean you hate it. And save the "it's just a movie/show!" comments. Those are stupid.

I'll start:

It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown - I was watching this yesterday with my son (5), and something stood out to me. When all the kids go around house to house trick-or-treating, they all get candy but Charlie Brown gets nothing but rocks. Now, I've seen this many times, but yesterday was the first time it really dawned on me that it is grown adults/parents giving him rocks. How fricking sick of a person do you have to be to give out candy to every kid but one, and give that one child rocks? And not only that, but they gave LOTS of candy to each other kid. It's not like each kid got one candy bar or piece of candy...they racked up. And every time Charlie Brown just got another rock.

Also, the fact that they have all these rocks handy means that this was a coordinated plan to frick over one kid; nobody has rocks like that (of the same shape and size) sitting around in the house. What a neighborhood of twisted fricking psychopaths.

And this was back long before the internet, so there had to be a discussion and likely meeting(s) about it for everyone to be on the same page. And a big part of Peanuts is how Charlie Brown is one of the nicest kids in the group. So are all these parents just getting together and deciding to see how far they can bully this poor kid into killing himself? It's sick.



Interstellar - Also started watching this last night. I do really like this movie, but it has its shortcomings here and there. But one thing that never really dawned on me was in the very beginning when they are chasing that drone...

The world is going through massive amounts of dust storms and blight, to the point of HUMAN EXTINCTION. And what do Coop and his kids do? They drive through a ton of crops chasing after some drone. They drive for a good while just literally across and through live crops (corn?) waiting to be harvested. The whole world is starving and foods and farming are literally dying out and you're destroying precious crops all willy nilly because you want to chase down a drone? Not only is that inconsiderate, but it should be illegal. The entirety of humanity is in big trouble, but you selfishly destroy a large amount of crops.....just because?

Coop should have either driven the truck himself or made his son stick to roads and pathways to avoid destroying life-saving crops.
