| Minority opinion: I think it’s easy to screw up because it’s tricky to get right. It’s a highly stylized piece of rarefied world building. Yet if you play it as a comic book, and punch up the jokes too presentationally, it can feel like a too well-oiled machine played by caricatures. The love stories need to be grounded in a whiff of recognizable human experience (“More I Cannot Wish You” is a shoehorned piece of earnestness that must be made to feel organic.) I think it’s hard to nail now. |
