Yeah, Tumblr is fun in its way, but I use it mostly as a "retumble things I think various of my friends will find intersting/amusing" platform, not so much as a conversation space.
I loved the subtle homages to so many 1980s films. Their house being cordoned off ala E.T. Memo trying and failing to stop the military vehicles ala Splash. The cop with the radar gun ala The Last Starfighter. Etcetera. I LOVED that Charlie was never, EVER sexualized, and that I can count down a list of the ways that she is in fact a perfect opposite to Sam.
And, yeah, Charlie's mom jumping to that conclusion was a little shaky, but I can kind of see it given that Charlie's first action was to say "I can explain, it's my fault."
One weird thing for me was, I spent the entire film going "Charlie's mom. I know her. Where do I know her from???" Then I check her Wikipedia page and figure out that I don't know her face, I know her *voice*! She's Vidia from the Tinkerbell movies, all of which I've seen and love. Strange how you sometimes recognize voice actors even when they're not doing voices. ^_^
