Yeah, and that was, I mean, quite a label of love.

Yeah, and that was, I mean, quite a label of love.

And I mean, you know, that's such a triumph of independent comedy filmmaking. And, you know, we look at, we're in 2025 right now, and we kind of look back on films with a lot of nostalgia, sometimes rose-tinted glasses. I mean, do you feel that was a moment in time? Is that replicatable?

They disagree. But, um... Boom! I will say, the one thing about... That is completely true. And all it takes is one really cool film to get people out again. And then you remember what it was like.

Because I forgot for a while until I went out to go watch a film again. I was like, oh, yeah, this is great. This is a wonderful thing to do. It's way better watching it on my toilet.

So am I. Yeah. So I don't know what we can say about it. Tom Cruise has a sniper on me. 24-7, in case I spoil the movie.
