The Ken dance is so magnificent because it’s reminiscent of the Golden Age of Musicals when there would just be artful dance sequences for no reason other than the director wanted to have one.

When MatPat came on screen I freaked out (in a good way) and got so light headed I missed the entire conversation and almost passed out until he said "But that's just a theory-" which shocked me out of it like a sleeper agent code word

While we're all talking about both the WGA/SAG strikes and Barbenheimer, I hope everyone realises that the entire reason this exists is because Christopher Nolan stood up to Warner Bros against pushing their entire cinematic slate onto streaming in 2021, by taking his next film to another studio.
Then, as an act of petty revenge, they decided to deliberately move their single biggest movie of 2023 (and arguably WB's biggest non-Batman/Harry Potter movie in DECADES) directly onto his release date.
So no, the Barbie Marketing isn't "so good it helped another movie". The Barbie Marketing Machine was specifically designed to get back at someone who dared to stand up against WB executives.
It was a calculated move of malice by soulless corporate fuckeroonies.

I like how in these past two entries Dracula is just There In the Background.
He's a flying bat, maybe a bird, he's that figure on the seat over there in the distance with the glowing red eyes. This is so different from how he menaced Jonathan (where he was the creepy old man that is Actively Keeping Me Prisoner yet still wants to have nightly chats) or the Demeter crew (where he understand the Nothing is Scarier trope and generally keeps out of sight till the end).
This time, he's just chillaxing in the background because we've had those two instances of different flavors of horror, and now we are thoroughly terrified of him, so just seeing him in the background is enough.
And this kind of tickles me in a weird way because I do so love when you can see the danger. It may not be actively menacing you. In fact, it may be moving away from you. Honestly, you don't even know if it has noticed you, and it's still TERRIFYING.
Like, sure, the idea that the monster is watching you and you not realizing it is scary, but sometimes you watching the monster is worse.

you know when skk became partners?
They officially got their name Soukoku/Double Black after the Dragon's Head Conflict (Dead Apple prologue), which happens a few months after Storm Bringer:
However, they've been working together as a team since day 1, and Dazai called Chuuya his partner in front of Oda when he first met the man, sometime between Storm Bringer and the Dragon's Head Conflict:
Dazai calls Chuuya his partner of 7 years, so he probably has almost always thought of him as his partner. Chuuya isn't as vocal about it, so it's harder to say in his case when he started considering Dazai his partner.
Their first mutually voluntary team up against Rimbaud probably counts for something though:

Baby Ambrosius meeting Ballister in class for the first time and IMMEDENTALY having a crush on him but he of course has no idea what to do with these feelings so he pulls the "get out of my school" note move but then Bal gets genuinely upset when he finds it and Ambrosius overcorrects hard when he tells him and is like "What? No. How dare they >:( If you find out who it let me know I'll beat them up >:((("
