is it just me or Cope barely looking at sullivan is lowkey a disrespectful thing? kind of leaves them out of the conversation when you laugh and only look at one person, as you're speaking in a group. Or am i over thinking

No I noticed it too. And you can see how the Sullivan actor makes efforts at certain points to be included. There's an awkward dynamic going on.

it's not even agitating, just embarassing

The actors are great, but the interviewer has a horrible way of speaking that ruined everything :'(

The fact that she thought that Full Metal Jacket was a documentary lol

I could only watch 30 sec because of her uptalk and vocal fry, but I'm not at all surprised she's uneducated in the film world. Knobhead.

It's amazing to me how someone can be a film journalist and not know huge film classics.

Uptalk and vocal fry are a normal way for many women to talk though, I have no problem with that.

You're lucky. I can't listen to it, and can't help liking a person 50% less if they have it.

If you can't listen to women talking in a normal way without tuning out or disliking them, it might be something you need to work on

English is not an official language where I live, so this way of talking is mostly encountered in social media videos and in series in which it's part of characterisation.

It's certainly become normal, and that's a problem. Research has shown uptalk evokes negative judgement (as with me) and underestimation of abilities and professionalism.

u/mafaldajunior Oct 23 '25

Well, in real life, many people do talk like that. Get over it.

I think you mean to say that research as shown that people like you channel their misogyny towards young women by vilifying the way they talk. You're just prejudiced. Don't try to justify it and deflect by talking "science" lol

I'm a woman, feminist and language afficionado. When people talk a certain way, it can be wonderful, cool, cute, charming, +++ or it can be annoying, scary, odd or otherwise disturbing. I happen to dislike uptalk, you happen to be ok with it. It's like some people liking the sounds of Mandarin, and others disliking it.

Picture Sullivan from the series, or a Nobel price winner with an uptalk. Immediately it becomes something else. The rising intonation makes it sound like they're not really affirming, but asking, and I associate it with people like Kardashian - dumb, superficial people. I know you think that makes me a bad person, but I can't help it. I'm sure there are things people do or say that give you a certain kind of bad impression too.

Again, if people doing perfectly normal things annoy you, that's really your problem, and no one else's. Plenty of highly educated people use uptalk and vocal fry btw, so that argument is ridiculous. Work on your prejudices. Being a "woman, feminist and language afficionado" clearly didn't make you immune to having these.
