Yeah.
Um, I thought that was fitting.
uh i thought the ending for this movie was also fitting i just thought the way that they were gonna get there was gonna be a little different like when he's uh in in the real match against the the japanese player you know after he like begs and pleads he's like oh come on like let me play for real and they're playing the real match
and they do that.
They had the shot of like him playing.
And then they're like cutting to the, uh, they're cutting to like the GIs that are like, yeah, go, go American guy.
And then they're cutting to like all of the Japanese faces.
Like you have to understand they're, they're like recovering from getting two atom bombs dropped on them.
And you know, this, this ping pong player is like, at least the way it's described in the movie, it's like, this is their first like rise back to prominence in, you know, and, and,
I was really thinking that they did the shot where he looks out to the crowd.
He sees Kevin O'Leary all pissed off.
He sees like all the different faces and they kept, they showed like, like Japanese children that were like, Oh no, like, Oh no.
And I thought he was going to have this, like come to Jesus moment where he's like, it's not about me.
It's not all about me.
Right.
And he was going to like take a dive.
Um,
and like lose the game and be like, all right, cool.
Like, you know, shake hands.
All right.
