It is definitely nonstandard but it made sense to me.

spujb @lemmy.cafe - 12mon

no, gru/the director is the villain here/the one carrying out the plan. to me the other way doesn’t make sense but you are welcome to post your own version lol

cm0002 @lemmy.world - 12mon

Ohh, that's why it was confusing, then the altered version works fine, but the first panel was worded weird

To be more clear you could have "Cis French Director" caption on Gru himself and then "Write and direct a musical film about a trans woman set in Mexico" for the first panel and then all the rest fall into place perfectly

i dont really care, you understood the gist either way but thanks for the suggestion

Yours makes way less sense since it looks like the guy happy about the first panel is also happy about the second and third yet sad about the fourth. The emotional reaction is inconsistent at best.

OP had to mix some things around compared to the OG template but at least their setup makes sense.

Yea, you have to go further down that comment chain.

I saw Gru as an "outside observer/Third-party" because of the way the first panel was written

you certainly aren’t alone ! i wouldn’t judge you for it.

personally i saw someone compare it to Crash (2004) and thought it was apt. movie about race relations which won best picture at the time but is now widely considered mid at best for its ham-fisted treatment of race relations.
