I'm like, holy hell.

That even just this past year, uh, for the first time I watched vertigo, I've never seen it.

I've seen bits and pieces of it all the way through.

Now, that one, I will say, score-wise, there was a couple elements to it.

I was like, it's getting that old movie bombastic shit.

But that was the thing then.

But it takes me out.

It's because it's so, I don't want to say obnoxious is the right word, but it just seems so off from the rest of the movie.

It takes me out a little bit.

It's supposed to help immerse you, though.

build music should but there's certain times when they go so I say bombastic I'm drawing like of a word but there's I think that's a good I think that's a great word certain sound a lot of old movies do and you're just kind of like to me in this me being a film nerd and atmospheric nut now that it it's just totally off but 90% of the score in Vertigo was fucking great and on point

The original Night of the Living Dead, same way.

There's some bombastic shit, but once it's like they're in a house, no, it's creepy.

When the little girl kills her mother with a trial.

Oh, dude, there's so much good shit in that.

The mayonnaise and kids went and saw it and were like, uh, what?

It was like, yeah.

Welcome to a new era, motherfuckers.

In 2025, the only way you could remotely pull it off is basically hire a bunch of 60-year-old actors that know how to act and carry and deliver a scene in line.

That's it.
