Every day or half hour I suddenly wonder if Tumblr has content on a specific subject. I then seach and reblog that content for 10 or more minutes. That is how I function on here. Occasionally I will try posting "Original Content" but there's no guarantee.

Cuckoo was like a 7/10

It didn’t go where I expected it to go but I was right about the weird breeding program plot. We don’t know what happened to Gretchen and Alma’s parents though. We only saw the mom freaking out and then they both left the hospital. I like to imagine that Gretchen knew that her parents wouldn’t believe her about Alma so her and Ed ran away together to Paris to raise Alma together

I’d like a sequel where it skips the supernatural stuff and it’s just Ed and Gretchen running from interpol with Alma on kidnapping charges and that they believe that Gretchen had something to do with the murders at the hospital

"Gretchen/Ed parenting Alma in Paris and dodging the cops" : I agree with this, 💯 , fugitive lesbian found family let's effing go.

"No supernatural stuff" : I respectfully disagree. I would like to see more variants of cuckoo women who have different methods of reproduction and survival.

Furthermore I'd love to see if Herr König or (ex-)Detective Landau survived their shootout. Both men represented potential ideologies for opposing factions, which I've decided will be named the Preservationists and the Exterminators.

The Preservationists would be willing to do anything to keep Alma safe and her nature a secret. Even if that means seperating her from her "abductor" half-sister. And for the sake of Alma's species, they have to pressure her into exploiting pregnant women. Maybe other Preservationists breeding programs have yielded "domesticated" versions of the species.

The Exterminators are all bitter survivors of cuckoo encounters who seek revenge. They know what their prey is capable of and are far more ruthless than Henry was. It doesn't matter if the Cuckoos pose no threat to humanities survival, the creatures need to go the way of wolves and other predators.

Look, I love morally ambiguous organizations in world building so both of these groups are endearing to me. I'd love to see Gretchen, Ed, and Alma manipulating and being manipulated by these people. And for König/Landau to be suddenly revealed as alive and the leader of these antagonists.

sorry to everyone who thought cuckoo (2024) was a deeply unpleasant incoherent mess of a film when the reality is that it is both of those things and also cuckoo is a film meant for little freaks and weirdos who came to see hunter schafer make out with a french lesbian and watch dan stevens be a freaky little german pied piper weirdo scientist billionaire(?) with a resort and a funny accent. as god intended.
