Glee 3x05 Reaction Thoughts
'Cause how could I not?
A few things - one thing in particular really bothered me with the pacing. Did anyone else feel like the "Artie talks to Rachel and Blaine" scene and the "Blaine and Kurt in Blaine's room" scene should've been switched? It sort of makes no sense in this order. First Artie talks to Blaine and says, "You need to be more sexy" in scene one, then Kurt and Blaine talk and Kurt says, "Don't you think I'm sexy / want to have sex with me?" and Blaine says "I thought we were waiting?" in the next scene, and then shortly thereafter Blaine is like, "We should experience everything together!" Wouldn't it have made much more sense for the Artie scene to come *between* those two other scenes? Wouldn't that have been a much more logical train of thought / motivation sequence for Blaine? "I get that you're into sex, but I thought we were waiting?" "Blaine, it's important for you to be more sexy." "Hey Kurt, shouldn't we be more adventurous?" I mean, maybe it wouldn't have been the most noble of motivations, but it would have made more sense.
Other little thing I noticed - that guy at the door to the bar checking their IDs seemed SO SAD. Why was he so sad, you guys? He just seemed so world-weary and depressed, like he knew they were obviously underaged but he wanted them to go in and try and have a good time while they were still young and beautiful before the world broke them. Man, I wanted to know that guy's story. Holy crap.
And why wasn't Kurt in the show circle? He was obviously in the play, so what, was he just too ashamed to see Blaine, so he didn't want to be a part of the big group and say thank you to Artie? What the heck? Where was he?
Finally, something I found vaguely amusing - that strut towards Blaine that Kurt does when he decides to dance is the exact same strut he used in the "Fashion Night Out" video. Seriously. Identical. I'd love to see two gifs of that side by side.
Anyhoos. May possibly write fic about the whole "car scene / walking home" thing. We'll see.
