I loved the cerulian sweater at the end.
I thoroughly enjoyed the sequel. That Nigel got his chance to actually do what he does best and finding out that he orchestrated for Andy to come back, full circle . Miranda cares about Runway, and with Nigel and Andy working together and them getting their own offices , next to one another , just an icing on the cake. Love that loyalty and perseverance still resonate in these changing times. Human are resilient! As for Emily, she blew it big time, with Benji and Jay seriously not helping her cause, I think she's selfish in thinking that she could usurp Miranda, Nigel & Andy together?
I think Miranda pushed Emily to Dior because she knew that’s where Emily’s strengths are. So from Miranda’s perspective, she did a good thing by Emily. Which is why in her mind what Emily did was pure betrayal.
Oh yes Miranda is still the master mind together with Nigel. But i was crying laughing when Andy saw Miranda putting her own coat away.
Emily is not capable of being the chief editor of Runway. Miranda was right.
I loved the film. Made Miranda more human. Nigel finally won. They all did. I loved the larger themes. Life is not AI. It's the visionaries of the world that makes it a better place.
Finally someone who actually understands this movie because the people who said it was bad they must not have been paying attention. I’ve been in the industry for years now, and I’m currently a fashion designer. Every issue this movie brought up is 100% what’s happening right now and if people don’t think it’s Important they need to wake up. It the same reason why some YouTube channels suck now bc private equity buys them and bleeds them dry, same with restaurants, and now it’s happening to the fashion industry and ai isn’t making it any better. The fact that Zara can have a look in their stores ready for you to buy that was straight off Diors runway in less than 2 weeks is why traditional fashion is in fact dying.
I think another layer of meaning that one can derive from the sequel is that it is a scathing critique of technocratic excesses that are taking over our world with this very smug attitude that AI can replace everything and that it can redefine civilisation. The dangerous notion that traditional human intellect built in a slow painstaking manner is obsolete, is what people like Andy, Nigel and Miranda resist and rebel against. I noticed recurring motifs like Miranda’s insistence on hard copies, and Andy’s meticulously typed feature articles that demand the burning of midnight oil, and Nigel’s manual approach to editing magazine art. It is the death of that world that the movie tries to prevent. The last shot is telling in that we see that only one floor of Elias Clarke publications is occupied by Runway, and that only these three people, occupying adjacent offices, are seen working, in the old-fashioned way, without resorting to the use of AI, late into the night. However, the scandal behind the speed-fash story remained undeveloped, it was just a fleeting reference.
The movie is extremely good and has a very nice ending. Miranda and Andy's characters are very useful in the movie... Expecting the third sequel of the movie very soon.... Your narration is also very nice and good....
Awesome summary
Miranda absolutely deserved to keep the crown at Runway. I was 20 when the first film came out and I had just come out the closet a little over a year before. The 1st film I fell in love with. It gave me lessons that I still hold close. The 2nd film I love just as much and only deepened those lessons I still hold close. I see a lot of who I have become in these past 20 years in Miranda, Andy and Nigel. It's about growth and development in our personal lives. When a movie actually connects with you it hits hard
This is first review I saw thats is great, constructive. Thats why will give like and sub.. Keep good work! I wish there is also comparison book and movie how much producers got far away from source material.
I loved how they kept contrasting between the ‘norms’ back then vs now. ‘No, you can’t say that anymore’ bhahahahahaa
I just saw this movie Excellent breakdown I definitely liked it much more than the first It's definitely true to life today
Great review!
Thank you for this review! You did it justice💯 , especially because yesterday I clicked on this video that went on to explain how the movie was lacking...and to me the video didn't understand or appreciate the movie the way you do here...Thanks for that💝
I loved it and will see it again. I particularly loved Nigel and the text at the end. His performance was subtle and strong. I want to see the movie again to understand what actually happened. The situations happened way too fast for me. Excellent job to all the actors. Bob Roza
The ending is amazing and very touching
Miranda is Runway , she made it what it is and yes she should get to keep it .
I did not enjoy the movie. I don't even know what I watched. OMG, I soooo wanted to enjoy it.
