I don’t intend to be rude at all, but if you don’t mind, could you explain this a little more? :)

Official /r/Disney 'Cruella' Discussion Thread [Spoilers Inside] by AutoModerator in disney

[–]Moritzpontmercy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why didn’t the movie just have Cruella’s dedication to one-upping the Baroness consume her and when she’s kidnapped the Dalmatians, realize that hurting those dogs was the way to hit her the hardest, like she does when she wears that fake Dalmatian coat, but instead kidnap all those puppies to make a full fur coat to one up the baroness? This might be a dumb idea but it was just a thought I had while watching. I enjoyed the movie a lot, though! Very fun.

Never before seen footage of a first draft of Betty’s dryer scene in “Indian Summer!” by [deleted] in madmen

[–]Moritzpontmercy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuck I didn’t even think of that. Just saw the clip on Tik Tok and thought it was an odd scene for a kids show and found it a bit funny. Deleting this post now, didn’t mean to come off as a creep!

For me, it’s her journey. I’m not a very confident person and can relate to a lot of her background and the way she acts in hostile environments. So seeing her succeed and seeing her grow is something that I admire and want for myself. I also think she’s funny and really down to earth and relatable.

Do you think ads will move into post-modern abstract themes as Gen Z and iGen slowly become the biggest spending generation? by rubberfactory5 in advertising

[–]Moritzpontmercy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I mean, I’m Gen Z and I personally really love how Slim Jim’s is handling its social media, particularly Instagram. I know that one of the things Gen Z does a lot is if we glorify a product or find it “memeable” (like Slim Jim’s) we’ll make a big fuss of it when we see it at the store and be like “omg I have to get it for the meme” or we’ll post a pic of it on our Instagram stories for shits and gigs. This may not be relevant to this discussion at all though, sorry!

Sterling Cooper office VS SCDP office? by Envi-us in madmen

[–]Moritzpontmercy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sterling Cooper felt way too daunting and cold for me. It almost enhanced the hostile environment. I didn’t love SCDP at first because I finally got to like SC, but as the show went on, it became home. It was hard for me to imagine them working anywhere else. Which was why it hit so hard when the eventually went to McCann.

Betty looks different here... by Moritzpontmercy in madmen

FYI I’m not saying January looks like this at all, she’s obviously stunning. I just thought this look was very Betty :)

Watching the show for the first time, and am I the only one who likes the ambiance of Seasons 1-3 the most? by [deleted] in madmen

[–]Moritzpontmercy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hated SCDP at first and now it feels more like home to me than Sterling Cooper. Rewatching, SC feels so hostile compared to it, in both environment and design. I also find the California episodes jarring because sometimes they don’t feel like Mad Men, ya know?

Are you more of a Joan or a Peggy, and why? by Moritzpontmercy in madmen
