Lovesick the Color Palette Episode 2: Blue Fights Back

Lovesick Series 2 Episode 2: Still kinda pink

Still kind of pink, but I think they fired the guy who placed hot pink in every shot in episode 1 and replaced him with someone who wanted pastel pink or baby blue (preferably both) in every shot. But overall, it’s easier on the eyes.

 

Episode 1 (left) vs Episode 2 (right): the pink haze has lifted

 

At least the kids no longer appear to be breathing pink or blue air. Maybe it rained between Saturday and Sunday.

Oh the Lovesick S2 Gossip: what’s going on here?

Guesses from upper left to right:

1) Earn has had enough sexual yearning out of Pete and is finally doing something about it (probability 15%)

2) The online super-couple “PopShay” isn’t an act for poor Shay (probability 100%) Chances of it actually working out for him? (5%)

3) Whoever that is will regret being recorded in that cat t-shirt 20 years from now (probability 50%) (seriously who is that? The new Om with Mick? Or is that Per. I always get him messed up with Ngoi and Knott)

4) Per Film is not certain which way he swings (probability 10% 100%) (Edited for accuracy)

5) Golf is has decided that the third wheel doesn’t need to be the spare tire (probability 100%)

Futureless Things (Korea: 2014): one never knows what’s in store next

Kyung-mook Kim’s off-beat third feature focuses on the everyday and sometimes surreal interactions in a convenience store. Futureless Things is more a series of comedy sketches than a unified narrative, but since everyone eventually needs a Coke, the setting is a good one to explore the many layers of contemporary society and the dreamers who find themselves stuck behind counters for a moment.
