I'm pretty much alone online in my opinion of Everything, Everywhere, All at Once. I did want to like it, I didn't see Swiss Army Man, it looked too crude, and I think this is what failed EEAAO. It was too goofy. I don't have much to say outside this and the fact it overstayed its welcome, which the Red Letter Media boys agreed with. It was absolutely tedious in its manner of wrapping up an already lengthy story that made its point early on. I did love the little googly eyes on the rocks, it took me two seconds to figure out what was going on. Cinematically, it's very impressive, there's nothing lacking in production values and acting, everyone's doing a good job, aside from whoever edited it.
Once the butt plugs were incorporated, they'd lost me. The profundity fell out the bottom and I was too busy cringing my ass off by that point, it was too wacky for its own good. Yes, we get why everyone has sausage fingers, it's nice you want to express something heartfelt within the realm of the absurd, but the absurdity pulls it out of the emotions it wants me to feel. I had a weird obsession with the multiverse concept after watching an episode of Red Dwarf, it made sense to me, it wasn't profound because I fixated on the universes that differed by minor choices like what you had for breakfast, so like Sliders when the Golden Gate bridge was blue instead of red, otherwise it's identical. It's a fun concept to play with in Rick and Morty, it has potential but it's so much older than Spiderman. You weren't selling me anything vastly different when I'm capable of recognising absurdity and its place in reality.
