DL... Will have to look up "widget"... thanks, G Scott's voice is a bit generic. Maybe Jeb's "courtship" at Sky's place was a hideously wrong-headed but innocent attempt to romance her "as he really is", a need to be accepted for himself, oblivious to the reality of it.
I've always had a problem with subjective camera angles, from the point of view of some unknowable, mysterious threatening creature. This seems to invite us to think and feel things from the monster's perspective, and we can't. The creature should stay out there, at arm's length. I can't know it, or see with its eyes. It's a sort of fraud, for me. I realize it solves problems for directors though, offering a way to look straight at the victim's terror, instead of being off to the side.
I want to see Jeb and Adam and Burke and Buzz and Joe around a table at the Blue Whale, sucking down beers, and discussing what they have in common...
The Warren Commission taught us that bullets travel around after they enter a body, DL!
