Right?

Like, that would have been the nostalgia play.

This movie is actually doing something different.

It's a loyalty play.

It's assuming that the town is so loyal to Steven Spielberg that they won't be honest about this.

And I'm being for real here.

Look, I come into this on these podcasts, all these podcasts on the Ringer Podcast Network, and I let you guys know something.

And I'll say it again.

A lot of this stuff that we cover when it's like this, I'm in the bag for it.

I'm in the bag for He-Man.

You got to make a really bad movie out of that shit for me not to like it because that stuff meant so much to me when I was a kid and when my brain was forming.

It was an escape out of a hellish place, which is what Baton Rouge was at the time.

Sometimes you would go to visit your uncle in Angola and then you would leave Angola and you didn't want to be in Baton Rouge anymore.

You wanted to be in Eternia.

You're like, what the fuck is going on?

That still weighs on me even now.

There's a lot of stuff in there.

I don't apologize for any of it.

But what I don't do is lie.

What I say is, I liked this, but it wasn't very good.
