Yeah, exactly.
I think you could see a lot of the people who go to see this movie as like basically seeing the ticket as a vote, you know, of their fandom.
I mean, that would be my guess.
I mean, I would say it's a documentary, but I mean that less as a description of its ethics or practices and more as just the fact that there is a wide range of documentary approaches, including some that would never feel particularly ethical to begin with.
So I do think it falls under the realm of documentary.
I think you can certainly...
have discussions about whether it also falls under the realms of propaganda, depending on what consists of propaganda.
When I watched this, I also had the thought of, like, this is not anywhere near the kind of, like, really inflammatory or, like, very kind of deliberately culture war baiting movie that I feel like...
we have seen before, you know, that has sometimes done very successful like Dinesh D'Souza documentaries or things that have like really set out to be like buying this as a ticket to own the libs or something like that.
But I do feel like that it does feel like that is encoded in this documentary as well, right?
Yeah.
It is hard for me to look at this whole deal and not see it as a means of making nice, you know, with the president and, you know,
You know, you see Jeff Bezos at that dinner.
He is one of the people who is described as like one of the generous, gracious donors, right?
Yes.
Sitting at that table.
If you want to see this as, I don't know, the equivalent of some of the kind of various gifts and tributes that different CEOs have given to the current president, I think that this is a particularly shiny and attention-getting one.
I mean, it is a more surreal one because we are all now being enlisted.
You know, it is being presented out there as mass entertainment when its intended audience does seem a lot more specific than the ones coming to wide release in a theater.
