[movies] Knives Out series

Well crap, I was hoping we were starting a “Talk like Mario Day”.

[Isgrimnur]

Mario Day is just a couple months away.

MAMA MIA!

Finally saw Glass Onion. Fun movie, which was surprisingly high-energy. But the one thing where it starts to fall apart for me is...

Spoiler:

the fact that Cassandra's sister received one of the boxes. Like why? Why invite her to a big murder mystery game in the first place? She was never among the original group. That only gives a motive to the sister to start snooping, and the others clearly realize something is up with 'her'. Unless the point was for him to use her as a double to deflect suspicion in the first place. It's just so murky.

Spoiler:

The sister never got her own box - her box was the one that she found in Cassandra's house after Cassandra was already dead.

Spoiler:

I thought they showed the box being delivered to her like the others. And even then, it sounds rather odd to deliver a box to someone you know would be dead.

Spoiler:

Miles certainly understood that it would be super-suspicious if he didn't send her the box. Also, he mentioned that boxes had to be made in advance, so he likely ordered it before Andi made the announcement about the napkin, and he decided to kill her.
