--> 00:11:46.799 Wow. 00:11:46.960 --> 00:11:49.440 And it's been what, four weeks, something maybe? 00:11:49.440 --> 00:11:50.080 What's it? 00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:51.679 Came out October 2nd. 00:11:51.679 --> 00:11:54.159 So yeah, it has, I mean, this is crazy. 00:11:54.159 --> 00:11:54.720 Yeah. 00:11:54.720 --> 00:11:56.000 So it's gone. 00:11:56.000 --> 00:12:04.159 It's it's like, I think it's still out there, but it's in one theater and it's got like limited showings and yeah, you so you said it was it had a budget of 170 million. 00:12:04.320 --> 00:12:04.799 Something like that. 00:12:04.799 --> 00:12:06.639 And then there's it's 100 million markets. 00:12:08.000 --> 00:12:10.720 You gotta fly Tom Cruise all over the world to promote it, right? 00:12:10.720 --> 00:12:12.960 So it has that ain't cheap. 00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:17.039 It has up to this point made domestically 17.5 million. 00:12:17.039 --> 00:12:19.360 Worldwide, it's made 42 million. 00:12:19.600 --> 00:12:19.759 Yeah. 00:12:20.080 --> 00:12:21.039 Aye, aye, aye. 00:12:21.039 --> 00:12:21.919 Yeah. 00:12:21.919 --> 00:12:25.440 So this is my here's here's what I'm coming at you with. 00:12:25.440 --> 00:12:29.919 Does that matter to us as moviegoers watching this movie? 00:12:29.919 --> 00:12:38.240 Because that was the narrative, and I kept thinking, oh, well, if I were to give in to this, I would say, oh, it's a bad movie because it's nobody's seeing it and it's bad. 00:12:38.240 --> 00:12:39.120 You know what I mean? 00:12:39.120 --> 00:12:39.840 That was the narrative. 00:12:39.840 --> 00:12:43.679 This and I was thinking to myself, this is when I put my tinfoil hat on here. 00:12:43.679 --> 00:12:49.039 I was thinking to myself, does the studio actually want this movie to fail? 00:12:49.039 --> 00:12:50.559 Why would you think that? 00:12:50.559 --> 00:12:52.320 The studios, I mean. 00:12:52.720 --> 00:12:54.320 Other than Warner Brothers. 00:12:54.720 --> 00:12:57.440 Well, and maybe even Warner Brothers, I mean, sure, they want to make their money back. 00:12:57.440 --> 00:13:07.600 I'm uh, you know, that would be silly, but but do they want these Maverick directors coming back into power and having control of the studio system? 00:13:07.919 --> 00:13:08.240 Interesting. 00:13:08.480 --> 00:13:18.159 Or do they want to make or do they want to make more Avengers movies and more sequels and more prequels and more Disney Star Wars movies? 00:13:18.159 --> 00:13:19.360 And right? 00:13:19.360 --> 00:13:21.519 Do they want to go back to that? 00:13:21.519 --> 00:13:45.120 This is similar to like the 70s when they had all of these Maverick directors and they were sort of running Hollywood, and then they did this movie called Heaven's Gate, and it was the most expensive movie ever made, and um it completely tanks, and that was the turning point when this the studio system started to take back over and and make call the shots and take away the power from the directors. 00:13:45.759 --> 00:13:52.879 I don't like to know too much about what I'm going into because I don't want preconceived ideas, I don't want to be judging it before. 00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:57.919 Totally understand that because I would have I can't say I didn't think it was a loser movie. 00:13:58.080 --> 00:13:59.919 Like I didn't Oh no, we have so much to say. 00:13:59.919 --> 00:14:03.919 I just want to leap off that for a second here and say this is not just another movie. 00:14:03.919 --> 00:14:08.159 This this movie Digger is is it's it's another another level of whatever. 00:14:08.159 --> 00:14:09.840 You will either love it or hate it. 00:14:09.840 --> 00:14:13.200 I I don't think there's many many people in between who go, oh no, it's fine. 00:14:13.759 --> 00:14:14.799 It's very polarizing. 00:14:14.799 --> 00:14:18.159 It's incredibly the critics are so divided on this film. 00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:25.440 I mean, they they like you said, they absolutely hate it or they think it's the greatest uh movie ever made, literally. 00:14:26.080 --> 00:14:29.279 The critic score for Rotten Tomatoes is 53%. 00:14:29.279 --> 00:14:34.399 And yet the popcorn meter, the people who go to it, it's up to above 70%. 00:14:34.399 --> 00:14:37.200 So there's this really interesting divide. 00:14:37.200 --> 00:14:38.799 I I'll just read a couple of these things. 00:14:38.799 --> 00:14:40.080 It's gonna kind of make me laugh. 00:14:40.080 --> 00:14:48.240 Like this is this was Digger is a failure because it got too smart about something people take seriously and was laughing while it did it. 00:14:48.240 --> 00:14:48.639 Uh-uh. 00:14:48.639 --> 00:14:56.080 Or maybe it shouldn't be surprising then that men as self-serious as Cruz and Iñorito? 00:14:56.320 --> 00:14:57.120 Uh Ignorito. 00:14:57.120 --> 00:14:59.840 You can pronounce it many different ways. 00:14:59.840 --> 00:15:01.360 Yeah, I've heard it pronounced. 00:15:01.759 --> 00:15:09.919 Cruz and Ignorito can't do comedy, but the film's cinematic sleight of hand isn't sharp enough to compensate for the dearth of decent gags. 00:15:09.919 --> 00:15:12.240 Like, holy damn. 00:15:12.240 --> 00:15:24.559 And yet, if you go to the audience comments right away, it's it took a few minutes to realize the premise of the movie, but ultimately this is one of those gotcha movies made for deep thinkers. 00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:26.159 I loved this one. 00:15:26.159 --> 00:15:31.759 Don't go into this movie with any expectations and just be just go along for the ride. 00:15:31.759 --> 00:15:35.279 Fantastic cast and direction, really great movie. 00:15:35.279 --> 00:15:36.720 Uh it is a must-see. 00:15:36.960 --> 00:15:38.080 That's spot on for me. 00:15:38.080 --> 00:15:39.039 Yeah, that review. 00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:40.080 That's how I felt. 00:15:40.080 --> 00:15:43.039 I think that this is such a big swing, this movie. 00:15:43.039 --> 00:15:45.919 And uh it's so hard to describe. 00:15:45.919 --> 00:15:48.000

thinking about that movie. 00:21:17.759 --> 00:21:28.559 And I just his there was a monologue about 10 minutes, and he's speaking to this EU parliament or whatever, and it was extraordinary. 00:21:28.799 --> 00:21:28.960 Yeah. 00:21:28.960 --> 00:21:40.000 Well, it was all shot in one take, um, although there are cuts in it, and and it's always fun to see that you know the crowd in that monologue, they pull out their phones and they start recording them, which is so what would happen right now. 00:21:40.079 --> 00:21:40.480 Oh, yeah. 00:21:40.640 --> 00:21:45.279 But that monologue, I think, will go down as one of the greatest scenes in i in movie history. 00:21:45.279 --> 00:21:45.839 I'm not kidding. 00:21:45.839 --> 00:21:49.920 Yeah, it is it is how can you not get an Oscar on for that monologue? 00:21:49.920 --> 00:21:53.599 And I'm sitting there going, he's talking to me right now. 00:21:53.599 --> 00:21:53.839 Yeah. 00:21:53.839 --> 00:21:54.079 Yeah. 00:21:54.079 --> 00:21:56.000 Like that's me he's talking to. 00:21:56.079 --> 00:21:57.920 Like why is everybody so sweaty? 00:21:58.400 --> 00:21:59.359 Oh, that was a theme though. 00:21:59.359 --> 00:22:01.920 With okay, are we gonna reveal it? 00:22:01.920 --> 00:22:03.279 No, I don't think we're gonna reveal it. 00:22:03.279 --> 00:22:04.880 It's it's a movie about the environment. 00:22:05.200 --> 00:22:07.200 Oh yeah, we should tell people what the movie's about. 00:22:07.200 --> 00:22:07.839 Yeah, yeah. 00:22:07.839 --> 00:22:10.000 It's about uh an oil digger. 00:22:10.160 --> 00:22:13.680 Yeah, and Digger Rockwell is a billionaire tycoon. 00:22:13.680 --> 00:22:22.400 Yeah, and he is this classic bombastic rich dude who is so eccentric, very eccentric. 00:22:22.400 --> 00:22:36.319 He the world revolves around him, and if the narrative around the world doesn't fit his narrative, he just changes the narrative to fit his world, and everyone, like even his cat that's like on the verge of dead or is dead, yeah. 00:22:36.319 --> 00:22:43.039 Um he he's just brings in the best of the best, keeps this disgusting thing alive. 00:22:43.039 --> 00:22:48.480 And the cat just wants the cat's just looking at it in the camera, going, kill me, just let me die. 00:22:48.480 --> 00:22:49.920 Let me let me die. 00:22:49.920 --> 00:22:54.640 And uh, but no, but this is that bombastic nature of this this guy. 00:22:54.640 --> 00:22:59.200 He's he's grander than life, but and he's surrounded by very powerful people. 00:22:59.200 --> 00:23:03.039 John Goodman, who plays the president of the United States, who also, oh my god, express. 00:23:04.079 --> 00:23:06.880 Yeah, so Rizimed and oh my god, great cast. 00:23:07.200 --> 00:23:11.759 Ultimately, uh the story is about, and this is how the movie starts, right? 00:23:11.759 --> 00:23:16.160 You got these methane bubbles just kind of coming up from the ocean floor. 00:23:16.160 --> 00:23:27.519 The sound is this kind of sonic dissonance, and it's off-putting but alluring and captivating, and you can't quite tell if it's real footage or animated in some way. 00:23:27.519 --> 00:23:29.039 It's all it's really, really cool. 00:23:29.039 --> 00:23:47.200 Yeah, and then that leads into the whole story about how methane is releasing from the ocean floor and it's causing damage to his oil rigs, and then releases a uh a size of a calving of an iceberg so large that it will basically destroy the world. 00:23:47.200 --> 00:23:55.119 There's an absurdity about all of this, but that's you'll see if you watch the movie why it's so absurd without again again giving it away. 00:23:55.119 --> 00:23:58.559 And the whole stories around how do you solve this problem? 00:23:58.559 --> 00:24:24.240 I don't think we're revealing too much when we say ultimately we go back to that 10-minute monologue is really cool because one of the reasons why I think I was bothered by that potentially bothered by about this movie, that it was going to be one of those preachy fucking movies that's gonna speak down on you in a self-righteous, smug kind of way, and it wasn't that at all. 00:24:24.240 --> 00:24:26.240 He's not smug, Alejandro. 00:24:26.240 --> 00:24:28.720 No, none of his movies are Tom Cruise. 00:24:28.720 --> 00:24:32.319 Funny when you listen to the comments, people just kind of like bothered by this. 00:24:32.319 --> 00:24:35.839 But I kind of wonder, because Shawn, this is the question I had for you and Susie. 00:24:35.839 --> 00:24:42.079 What did you think of the message around uh Tom Cruise's monologue? 00:24:42.079 --> 00:24:47.599 So just to set the stage for people listening, okay, and again, I'm not gonna give away a lot, but this is something that I think you should know. 00:24:47.599 --> 00:24:55.359 He's about to do a speech and he's surrounded by hundreds of uh EU members of the EU parliament. 00:24:55.359 --> 00:25:00.960 And he uh says, Yeah, I am responsible for all of this. 00:25:00.960 --> 00:25:02.079 This is my fault. 00:25:02.079 --> 00:25:03.359 He takes ownership. 00:25:03.359 --> 00:25:21.279 But then instead of going, yeah, he's the classic kind of stereotypical tropey, you know, white man, oil baron who uh takes on no responsibility, he then flips the conversation and he basically says, Yeah, but you're all at fault too. 00:25:21.279 --> 00:25:22.880 Like, I'm digging the oil. 00:25:22.880 --> 00:25:24.079 You want me to dig the oil? 00:25:24.079 --> 00:25:25.920 You want, you want the oil too. 00:25:25.920 --> 00:25:29.759 You all drove, you know, here in your cars. 00:25:29.759 --> 00:25:32.880 And so that's what made it so kind of enjoyable. 00:25:32.880 --> 00:25:34.000 What do you think? 00:25:34.319 --> 00:25:35.039 Asked and answered. 00:25:35.039 --> 00:25:37.119 You just asked the question and then answered it all. 00:25:37.119 --> 00:25:37.759 Shit. 00:25:37.759 --> 00:25:40.160 So so I I I agree. 00:25:40.160 --> 00:25:41.200 I agree exactly. 00:25:41.200 --> 00:25:48.559 I

00:25:55.920 --> 00:25:59.519 I like to have heat in my apartment and gas in my car. 00:25:59.519 --> 00:26:02.480 And so am I willing to not do any? 00:26:02.480 --> 00:26:06.720 I do look, I'm sure we all do little things like Susie washes out plastic bags. 00:26:06.880 --> 00:26:07.200 Yes. 00:26:07.440 --> 00:26:08.240 So good for you. 00:26:08.559 --> 00:26:09.599 Plastic bag fairy. 00:26:09.759 --> 00:26:11.279 Yes, the plastic bag fairy. 00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:12.240 So good for you. 00:26:12.240 --> 00:26:14.400 But but you're dad, you're right. 00:26:14.400 --> 00:26:15.599 That was the message. 00:26:15.599 --> 00:26:28.319 And and it it was delivered in such an effective way that it struck me sitting there that I was like, oh my God, this is the first, actually, I'm kind of ashamed to admit this, but it's kind of the first time I ever thought about it like that. 00:26:28.319 --> 00:26:31.839 I mean, I think sub subconsciously I probably knew that all along. 00:26:31.839 --> 00:26:39.359 But it when it was was delivered to me by Tom Cruise And then and when Danger Zone was playing in the background. 00:26:40.319 --> 00:26:41.039 I mean, it's true. 00:26:41.039 --> 00:26:58.400 Like when you I don't know, you hear about all these um activists in the world and they're and you're you're always kind of like, oh, I should be doing, I could do more, I could do more, but no, but you're like Yeah, you gotta raise your kids, you gotta go to work, you gotta do your thing, man. 00:26:58.400 --> 00:27:02.400 You still have to get up every day and go to work, and you wanna, you know, you wanna drive there. 00:27:02.720 --> 00:27:04.559 You wanna go camping in your your trailer. 00:27:04.559 --> 00:27:05.440 That's right, man. 00:27:05.680 --> 00:27:08.400 You wanna have your coffee imported from wherever. 00:27:08.880 --> 00:27:11.359 But you wash the plastic bags, man, the Ziploc bags. 00:27:11.359 --> 00:27:12.720 There's the payoff, right?

00:27:35.599 --> 00:27:36.640 64. 00:27:36.640 --> 00:27:42.720 Yeah, it took it was six hours to put the prosthetics on, and Tom goes, you got to do it in an hour. 00:27:42.720 --> 00:27:47.279 So can you, because he doesn't have time because he's Tom Cruise to go in and do six hours. 00:27:47.279 --> 00:27:55.599 So can you imagine they would have 10 people practicing uh like on somebody before Tom got there to make sure they could get it down to an hour? 00:27:55.599 --> 00:28:03.519 It's like a pit crew, yeah, and and like only Tom Cruise would like because he's such a busy person, would be like, No, you gotta do it in an hour. 00:28:03.519 --> 00:28:04.400 But it takes six hours. 00:28:04.400 --> 00:28:05.359 I need it in an hour. 00:28:05.359 --> 00:28:07.279 Yeah, and I'm Tom Cruise, so you're gonna do it. 00:28:07.440 --> 00:28:09.279 If you can't do it, then we're not gonna do this. 00:28:09.519 --> 00:28:12.079 Like so, isn't that I just thought that was funny? 00:28:12.079 --> 00:28:13.839 We gotta make this guy look his age. 00:28:13.839 --> 00:28:15.359 We're gonna need a lot of prosthetics. 00:28:15.680 --> 00:28:16.720 Yeah, he looked good. 00:28:16.720 --> 00:28:23.119 I I actually thought the the the prosthetics people, whatever they're called, the I'm sure there's a category for it. 00:28:23.119 --> 00:28:28.160 Yeah, it's called makeup, makeup makeup, Oscar, maybe we'll see. 00:28:28.319 --> 00:28:30.000 They did set design Oscar. 00:28:30.000 --> 00:28:31.279 I mean, that's 10 out of 10. 00:28:31.279 --> 00:28:34.160 I mean, that like you said, visually, this film is on another level. 00:28:34.160 --> 00:28:54.160 Oh, and like the and the the costumes, the clothes, like his outfits, just it's sort of like Poor Things uh meets Mickey 17 meets like here, like this year, Warner Brothers has put out uh weapons, uh One Battle After Another, uh Mickey 17 and this film. 00:28:54.160 --> 00:28:54.960 And you know what? 00:28:54.960 --> 00:28:56.319 They're not all masterpieces. 00:28:56.319 --> 00:29:04.480 I know we've talked about a lot of those movies, but good for them for swinging at this, these kind of films and putting these kind of films out. 00:29:04.480 --> 00:29:12.240 Because we talked all last year about the fact the state of the movie industry and all the sequels and the all that shit we're talking about. 00:29:12.240 --> 00:29:14.160 And now we're here. 00:29:14.160 --> 00:29:16.799 And yes, this movie didn't do well financially. 00:29:16.799 --> 00:29:22.720 It's gonna be talked about for years as one of the biggest flops, but I hope that it gets its praise like. 00:29:23.200 --> 00:29:28.160 So I wonder does the biggest flop win win an Oscar for a lead actor? 00:29:28.559 --> 00:29:31.759 I I I don't know what else is he's gonna be up against, right? 00:29:34.000 --> 00:29:41.359 I just want to go back

to this idea of movies that have flopped in the movie theater, but you know, what gone on to be. 00:29:41.359 --> 00:29:54.400 But gone because of VHS, because of DVD and now Blu-ray, these movies became cult classics and incredibly popular, and people went and bought out, you know, millions of these discs or you know, tapes. 00:29:54.400 --> 00:29:57.200 Yeah, there's the streaming model now. 00:29:57.200 --> 00:30:04.640 I don't know if it makes I don't know if that would lead to the same hype creation as a result. 00:30:04.640 --> 00:30:07.920 Because you know how on YouTube you see the number of accounts of views? 00:30:07.920 --> 00:30:11.599 You don't see that when you're going to Apple TV or other services. 00:30:11.599 --> 00:30:14.480 You don't you don't see if this thing is actually doing well. 00:30:14.480 --> 00:30:20.480 All you know is if it's in the top 10 list and and or you know, having conversations around the movie at work. 00:30:20.480 --> 00:30:28.720 But other than that, you know, whereas they would go, oh, this deep this has this movie has sold millions on the but why did it not do well in the movie theaters? 00:30:28.720 --> 00:30:30.319 I think this is one of those movies. 00:30:30.319 --> 00:30:34.319 Part of the problem is even the trailer couldn't reveal too much. 00:30:34.319 --> 00:30:36.799 If it did, it would give away the plot twist. 00:30:36.799 --> 00:30:39.279 So they were in this already awkward moment. 00:30:39.599 --> 00:30:40.960 It'll be like a cult follow-up. 00:30:42.799 --> 00:30:46.559 But did you see the the uh requisite trailer they put out after the reviews? 00:30:46.559 --> 00:30:54.160 No, they had uh they made up a trailer of Tom Cruise reacting from the movie, Digger, of all the bad reviews. 00:30:54.160 --> 00:30:57.279 And so it would be like this movie is whatever, whatever. 00:30:57.279 --> 00:31:04.559 And and so then they show a clip of him from the movie going, it doesn't matter what the people think you know or what the critics think, because these are lines from the movie. 00:31:04.559 --> 00:31:05.039 Yeah, yeah. 00:31:05.039 --> 00:31:08.000 And so they inserted it all as his character responding. 00:31:08.000 --> 00:31:09.599 Oh, interesting, and it was brilliant. 00:31:09.599 --> 00:31:14.240 So, like once again, I'm I'm giving crude kudos to the to Warner Brothers for for doing that. 00:31:14.559 --> 00:31:17.759 Well, and and I don't think there was a bad actor on set. 00:31:17.759 --> 00:31:19.440 I mean, first of all, John Goodman. 00:31:19.440 --> 00:31:20.960 Always, always so funny, yeah. 00:31:20.960 --> 00:31:23.119 Fucking he was brilliant, he's lost a lot of weight. 00:31:23.279 --> 00:31:26.000 Some of his facial expressions in this film, they're genius. 00:31:26.000 --> 00:31:29.920 And you have Ahmed uh Riz Ahmed is so good in this film. 00:31:29.920 --> 00:31:31.920 He should get a best supporting nomination. 00:31:32.319 --> 00:31:33.119 I think so. 00:31:33.119 -->

00:31:50.319 His whole character, he is like basically the scientist, the environmental scientist, and who is under this enormous pressure from this bombastic individual of a man of Digger, and but eventually he has this coming out party kind of calling him out beautiful, beautiful moment. 00:31:50.559 --> 00:31:51.200 Good scene. 00:31:51.440 --> 00:31:53.759 And then I Sandra Mueller. 00:31:53.759 --> 00:31:54.720 Oh, Hewler. 00:31:54.720 --> 00:31:56.000 Yeah, Hewler. 00:31:56.000 --> 00:32:08.160 Yeah, Hewler, Hewler, another great movie, but she again just has a nose for great movies, and she had a nose job done, actually, after her last film. 00:32:08.240 --> 00:32:08.720 So there you go. 00:32:08.880 --> 00:32:09.839 So you just made that. 00:32:09.839 --> 00:32:10.400 Yeah, okay. 00:32:10.400 --> 00:32:12.240 But I can never tell with you. 00:32:12.240 --> 00:32:12.640 Yeah. 00:32:13.519 --> 00:32:15.599 Most people get nose jobs in Hollywood. 00:32:15.599 --> 00:32:16.880 Uh Jesse Plummins. 00:32:16.880 --> 00:32:17.279 Yeah. 00:32:17.279 --> 00:32:21.200 Another I'm a And these people are all very limited in the film. 00:32:21.200 --> 00:32:22.799 It's really all Tom Cruise. 00:32:22.799 --> 00:32:23.920 I think he's in every scene. 00:32:23.920 --> 00:32:24.240 Yeah. 00:32:24.240 --> 00:32:28.480 And then these people all are very small little roles, but they add a lot to it. 00:32:28.480 --> 00:32:28.799 Yeah. 00:32:28.799 --> 00:32:29.279 Right?

00:32:58.720 --> 00:33:00.240 And I came up with a few ideas. 00:33:00.240 --> 00:33:00.480 Okay. 00:33:00.480 --> 00:33:01.759 And I was like, okay. 00:33:01.759 --> 00:33:06.079 So I'm gonna say I love Tom Cruise and Collateral. 00:33:06.079 --> 00:33:08.079 Okay, so these are five things. 00:33:08.079 --> 00:33:09.039 Do you remember collateral?

who were really quite hard on this movie. 00:35:09.679 --> 00:35:12.800 My take is this, and I I I don't know if it's true. 00:35:12.800 --> 00:35:14.559 I'm kinda curious to what you think. 00:35:14.559 --> 00:35:30.079 It seemed to me that the narrative was fundamentally we're all responsible and that we can't just easily because in our world today it's so polarized, it's so easy to go, you're at fault. 00:35:30.079 --> 00:35:38.559 You this this person or this group that they're responsible and then and we're not gonna take any responsibility or culpability. 00:35:38.800 --> 00:35:40.400 Yeah, everybody wants to play at the blame game. 00:35:40.639 --> 00:35:54.719 Yeah, and what I liked about this movie, it kind of went, no, pulled back the curtain and went, nah, we're all in this together, and if we're gonna find solutions, we actually have to work together with this instead of just pointing fingers and blaming. 00:35:54.719 --> 00:36:00.559 And and I wondered if that's where you get some of these uh individuals who found it, you know. 00:36:00.960 --> 00:36:07.519 I I still can't get over the critics not liking this film because this film is brilliant. 00:36:07.519 --> 00:36:09.840 Yeah, I mean, it it's put together so well. 00:36:10.079 --> 00:36:12.000 Yeah, so why why would half of the rotten? 00:36:12.400 --> 00:36:17.039 That's why my my tinfoil hat comes on, like like the fix is in or something. 00:36:17.280 --> 00:36:24.000 No, it's it's like because I think it breaks that narrative of the rich dudes are are at fault. 00:36:24.079 --> 00:36:27.039 And somebody's got to be at blame, and it's not us. 00:36:27.039 --> 00:36:27.760 Yeah, it's not us. 00:36:28.800 --> 00:36:36.960 That the mirrors that Innerito is putting this mirror up, and then and that's causing others to go, oh, oh, uh, and make them uncomfortable. 00:36:36.960 --> 00:36:38.079 I it's the only thing I can think about. 00:36:38.719 --> 00:36:39.920 That's the key, Craig. 00:36:39.920 --> 00:36:44.079 I would say to anybody, is that this film made me uncomfortable. 00:36:44.079 --> 00:36:46.000 And I loved it. 00:36:46.000 --> 00:36:52.960 I enjoyed the ride, but there was something deeply in the pit of my stomach made me uncomfortable while I was watching it. 00:36:52.960 --> 00:37:08.639 I think that that art I mean, this is gonna sound so pretentious, but I think art like questions everything and that you believe and it pushes against everything and it makes you feel kind of uncomfortable, but also happy and also sad and also, you know. 00:37:08.639 --> 00:37:14.800 So uh I think that's that's what cinematic experiences are supposed to be about. 00:37:14.800 --> 00:37:21.119 Now, having said that, it's great to just go watch something you can just laugh at, not turn that off once in a while. 00:37:21.119 --> 00:37:22.320 But can't you have it all? 00:37:22.320 --> 00:37:24.159 Can't you have all of that coming? 00:37:24.559 --> 00:37:25.599 This one seemed to have it
