What Movie Should We Do Next?We watch Everything Everywhere All at Once with a mix of cynicism and hope, then score the acting, cinematography, score, plot, and rewatchability until we land on a very fair 3.5. We follow the movie’s “golden path” from traditionalism to nihilism to absurdism, then argue about whether kindness, empathy, and rebellion are the real antidotes to meaninglessness. • our three-part method for reviewing a movie while drunk, high, or whatever • first impressions shaped by multiverse fatigue and Oscar hype • a quick plot breakdown of the immigrant family, the laundromat audit, and the multiverse threat • Ryan’s ratings and why the runtime and “jingle keys” moments drag for him • James’s ratings and why the performances and camera work stay engaging • the philosophical ladder: conservatism, Kant, nihilism, optimistic nihilism, absurdism • the everything bagel as a symbol for despair and the pull of nothingness • Waymond’s kindness as an active way of fighting nihilism • how empathy and autonomy at home connect to broader ethics and politics • inserting ourselves into the film and speedrunning the plot with weed and minimal kung fu Support the show
