Everything you said true and that's why it's important to pay attention to every details because even a background with a colour and a mere object has meaning. There's more to this story than what you see on the surface so you have to dive deep to see everything. Jo is the plot development. Without him the plot would've stayed the same. It's very telling when Jamie (the villain of the story) had to wait for years to finally make a move against Ian, TJ and the gang. He also knows that Ian isn't someone that will get close to anyone other than TJ. Now since he knows Jo exist, he will use Jo and Chris as a bait to go against them. I think his grand plan will has to do something with Jo. I think most of you guys and Jo himself have presumed that there's nothing more to himself than what he is known for which is not true. There's more to him than meets the eye. His character development will finally start when his darkness will consume him. In simple when he actually meet Jamie. Meeting Ian and falling in love with him is the biggest turning point in his life because he will get to know his real self. He has to turn dark in order to see his true self and that only will happen when he finally get consumed by the darkness that he didn't want from being consumed.
uniquely melancholic atmosphere that isn’t overloaded with cliche. I love the comic-book style inspiration and pop art colours, there’s a really masterful use of lighting and composition that adds to the storytelling even when there’s no dialogue. There’s a very cool contrast between the flashy colours and the story itself. I normally find 3D backgrounds very obvious and unappealing, but there’s clearly nothing lazy about this story, so I find that it (literally) fades into the background. I love the dialogue and its interpretative qualities. Ultimately, a lot of these types of stories end up as pornography with surface-level embellishments, but I don’t get that feeling from this at all. There’s a genuine desire to tell a good story, develop characters, and create a very visually compelling experience. I’m not very interested in Jo as a character at this point, but there’s a lot of potential for him to become significant in a way that isn’t just ‘the other woman,’ lmao. There’s obviously a lot more to the story, so I’m looking forward to his development into something a little more than what is (relatively) a flat character.
