The plot of this whole video series is a "reality-style" version of the movie "My sister Kate", starring Juliann Stiles. In that movie, it's about a young girl who tries to bust out and have fun, but her overprotective father and strange older sister (who she calls a "beast" at one point - sound familiar??) prevent her from having a normal 13 year old teenage girl's life of partying and dating.

Bree is like that girl. Daniel Beast is kind of like a mixture of the Juliann Stiles character and the Australian boyfriend she has in the movie.

I think the line that sums it up is what Kate's father says to her and the younger sister. (Her father, incidentally, is played by the same guy who was the Dean of the college where Eddie Murphy's character was a teacher in "The Klumps" movie, very famous actor). Anyway, the father says to them at one point "I don't want you behaving like those damn Dawson's River kids!!!"

So you see the parallels are obvious. It's CLEARLY based on "Kiss me Kate".

One other note of interest, the Juliann Stiles movie is based on a Shakespeare play, it is kind of a COPY of it, an o-maj, and this series is like a o-maj to the Juliann Stiles movie. Also, the movie has classic literature as a theme, and the youtube series of Bree incorporates classic painting, as seen in the Dennis Hopper painting above her bed.

VERY interesting stuff, The Creators should be applauded for this masterpiece.

I believe the movie you're referencing is 10 Things I Hate About You. Smile

I thought it was based on Carrie...or Blair Witch...or Cinderella...or Rapunzel...or Beauty and the Beast (notice the similarity?) ...or Dawson's Creek...or 90210...or O.C...or Sybil...or the Other...or...someting by David Lynch...or...aww man, I could do this all day.
I don't believe the plotline is lifted from any one thing. It's a compilation of many ideas. Pretty much like every thing else ever written Smile

[/hidecorner]

And...Harrison Ford was in Star Wars...and was also in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom...which featured a Thugee cult who pulled out the hearts out of their living sacrifices...

It's possible we could be dealing with aliens that pull out the beating hearts from their victims, folks. Laughing

You called the movie "My sister Kate" and "Kiss me Kate" in the same post. Which one is it?

Also, it's "homage" not "o-maj."
