Watching it now as an adult with children, I mean, we weren't like young when we wrote it, but compared to now, for me, I was like, it's kind of chilling me and we wrote it.

That's a good question.
There's also an interesting choice made in it where I wish we had kept it all as TV feed cameras, but we switched to glossier steadicam.
And watching it now, I was like, oh, it would have felt more protected if we hadn't been like, now check out.
