And that's what this is. They just went and did some cool stuff. And they apparently built a gigantic submarine set. I'm probably exaggerating, but I thought they said that they built half of a submarine or something like that. And it does look like The Making Of is on YouTube, so I'll put a link in the show notes. But it is incredibly, incredibly cool, and really unlike anything else.

And again, I think I started to make this point, I got myself sidetracked. But all the other stuff that I've seen, even though I've really liked it, the sports stuff, the nature stuff, like the elephants and the rhinos and whatnot, the The Flying Around Hawaii. All of those documentaries were incredibly cool and in some ways moving in their own way.

But this is so wild to me because this is 100% synthetic in the sense that it is constructed. It's scripted. And I think so much cool stuff could be done with this. And I hope so very much that Apple continues to pull this thread and continues to do this because this is the kind of stuff that, to me, and maybe a MetaQuest could do this. I don't have any experience with those.

that can experience something like this is the vision pro and it's these moments that make the otherwise occasionally silly otherwise stupidly overpriced vision pro just seem so very worth it and so marco even if you don't watch the whole 17 minutes you know after you find the vision pro and then charge the vision pro and then start the vision pro and do software update on the vision pro

After you do all those things, as much as I'm snarking, I really do mean it. It is worth giving it a few minutes of your time because it is really, really cool.

And they're learning, right? Because, like, that MLS thing, granted, that was a documentary, but the MLS thing, it was the one that was, you know, the quick cuts all the time and it was terrible. Then the, the NFL thing was way better. All these documentaries are getting really, really, really good. And this is again, like another step above. It's just so cool.

A couple other very quick things. The first time I watched it, I watched it with my AirPods Pro 2. This is not the ones with the, you know, instant audio or whatever it is, the lossless audio. I forget what, you know what I'm thinking of, the one with the USB-C case. My case is still a lightning case. It sounded incredible, as you would expect.

However, this morning, I just watched it with the audio pods, whatever you call it, on the, you know, straps of the Vision Pro. still sounded phenomenal. Those things are stunningly good. Now, granted, if I was watching like a, you know, two hour movie, I would probably feel over time that, okay, maybe this isn't as bassy as I would want or something like that.

But for just quick stuff like that, I cannot overstate how good the audio pods are. It's really quite surprising.

And then also very quickly, in that five-minute making-of video, I wanted to call out – and I think I did this on Mastodon, but I wanted to call out here – I'm curious if anyone who's listening happens to know – I've seen a lot of conjecture, but I'd be curious if anyone knows – that whenever they show people watching back what they had just filmed on the Vision Pro, which they do a lot in this making-of video –
