10. The Sherlock Parody (12k+ views)

Made 5 years ago, in the days when Mime Club was still experimenting with film making, this BITSian Sherlock spoof captures the essence of having detective Holmes and Dr Watson living right here in Pilani. From drawing comparisons of Big Ben with the Clock Tower to mocking the ‘mysteries’ that puzzle every BITSian, this parody had it all. Watch this one for the desi Sherlock!

1. Dangal++ (13k+ views)

Garnering over 10,000 views within a day of upload, this latest short film by Mime Club is a placement parody of Dangal. Also featuring spoofs of the songs ‘Dangal’ and ‘Dhaakad’, it is sure to have you rolling on the floor, laughing. Watch this one because there’s simply no reason not to!

Okay, so I spent 4 hours writing a review that got deleted with #ChromeCrash But I’m not going to whine (anymore) Instead, I’m giving you this list of 6 things you totally missed in today’s episode.

#1 Tommen Removes His Crown Before Dying

While there’s ambiguity as to why Tommen really killed himself, this shot symbolizes that he didn’t die a king (and hence, he didn’t kill himself for a failed responsibility as a king) but a lover.

#2 Those big suspended reflectors at the Citadel...

are really...

When Samwell visits the library, we see these reflectors hanging from the roof, bringing sunlight into the library. They have the same engravings as the ones we see in the title track!

#3 Wylla, the ‘whore’

There was one midwife to Lyanna that the show gave special focus and limelight to. If you recall, Ned Stark tells Robert in S01E02 that Jon’s mother is a whore named Wylla. My bet is that this Wylla is this midwife who knows the truth of Jon along with Lyanna and Ned. And most probably, she plays along as Ned’s whore to keep Jon protected.

#4 Fools that trust LittleFinger

Sansa remarks to Jon that only a fool would trust Pedo Baelish. That’s a throwback to Ned and Catelyn trusting Littlefinger which ended up in their demise. Though Sansa has no clue of Petyr’s betrayal of Ned Stark or lies to Catelyn, it foreshadows to the viewer that Sansa won’t fall into his trap. She in fact, might lure him into his own trap in the coming seasons!

#5 Arya at The Twins

Okay, yeah, it’s really a coincidence, this one. But while the title track was playing, Maisie Williams’ name was listed at The Twins. I couldn’t help but laugh at that major cookie hint!

#6 Mel’s Banishment

Last week, in my analysis I enlisted quite a few similarities between Jon and Dany. Well, to carry forward the list, you’re not the only one if you feel that Mel’s banishment was similar to Jorah the Andal’s! It was shown in a similar way too!
