This quote is, when you understand the world, it has a much darker meaning. Fear isn't an emotion, like most people would make you believe. Fear is irrational. Fear is overwhelming. And once it gets a grip on the mind, it doesn't let go. After a while, reality and imagination become a matter of "I saw what I saw." And I think that why the quote "For everyone who dreams of the light bulb, there's one who dreams of the atomic bomb" fits quite well with the idea of "dreams" and the "mind". Dreams can become reality. But someone's dream can be someone else's nightmare
@@nicksuazo4377Fear is not irrational. You can have rational fears, like fear of death. Look at videos of veterans talking about fear in combat, that's fear. Fear of the wilderness etc... That's why phobias exist those are irrational fears.

Honestly this movie has a lot of really good quotes and lines. I swear they put all the budget in the dialogue. Edit: Apparently I've struck some sort of personal chord with people, about how budget doesn't equal quality.
HE RUINED MY DREAM JOURNAL I DID NOT. MR. ELECTRIC SEND HIM TO THE PRINCIPALS OFFICE AND HAVE HIM EXPELLED ENOUGH! THIS IS MY CLASS. NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND. I KNOW EVERYTHING. AND YOU… KNOW NOTHING
My favourite randomly profound quote is "Do you think god stays in heaven because he fears what he created", its such a good quote and I hate the fact that it's from a Spy kids movie
I always remember the line from Spy Kids 3, "It's not about whether you win or lose, it's how you play the game." I believe it may have been quoted from another source but it always just stuck with me
I think some of the writing in this film is actually really good for this movie, for example: they were pushing the message of "some dreams are so powerful that they become real" but disguising it as just being strong like sharkboy or lavagirl or mr electric, "they were so strong that they became real", but they were just telling you that if your dreams are powerful enough, and you work on them they will become real, just like Max's robot at the end of the film.
The thing about good, hard hitting dialogue is that it can come out of anything that was made with passion. From stories written by kids to some user making an excited post about something odd they enjoy, you can get lines that wouldn't sound out of place in a cinematic masterpiece or classic literature. Like the fucking dril tweet that ends with "I'll face God and walk backwards into Hell" wtf was up with that raw ass line being in a shitpost about getting kicked out of the zoo?
Honestly I just had an epiphany that this movie has a deeper undertone that went over our heads as kids. The movie is about manifesting your dreams in the flesh. Think about it! Max believed in Shark Boy & Lava Girl. No matter what everyone else has said, and he eventually manifested them in the flesh in front of everyone. But the only problem he had was believing in himself, this is something Lava Girl also struggled with. She didn’t believe that she was more than destruction until Max spoke life into her. It’s so crazy how deep this movie actually is.
With the Steve Buscemi quote in Spy Kids, at least you can "hide" that it comes from Spy Kids because the moment just has Steve Buscemi reflecting, in a room. However, what I like about this is that you could *never* hide that it comes from a campy, funny movie because how else could you justify George Lopez being in a floating robotic bulb, whose limbs are held together by electricity?

The irony is that the dude who dreamed up the atom bomb was a pretty introspective, morally self-aware human being and the guy who dreamed up the electric light bulb was a piece of shit narcissist.
Edison gets a bad rap but he didn’t actually steal the credit for the electric light bulb (he even called his company Edison-Swann United and their electric light bulbs Edison-Swann bulbs, so he gave Joseph Swann his due) and Tesla’s frustrations weren’t actually with Edison they were with Westinghouse. And Edison and Swann were both fully aware of other people trying to create the same thing. While Dr. Oppenheimer directed the efforts to create the atomic bomb and was horrified by its effects (I am become death, the destroyer of worlds) but it wasn’t his idea to build it, it was Dr. Leo Szilard and Dr. Albert Einstein. And Szilard and Einstein only recommended it to Roosevelt in the first place because Dr. Werner Heisenberg was working on creating one for Hitler.
@@GigaDonk99 Oppenheimer wasn’t the person who dreamed up the atom bomb, he’s the one who made the dream a reality. It was Einstein and Szilard who suggested the creation of the bomb and even then they weren’t the ones who dreamed it up, Dr. Werner Heisenberg was the one who was first trying to build it for Hitler. (And he wasn’t even the first person to whom the idea occurred.)
This quote on a fundamental level seems to imply that no matter how much good humanity spreads, there will always be someone spreading even more suffering.
“It was insane and it did terrible things, but, but at first, it was so human." "It was a wonderful creature, capable of great good, and great evil. Yes, I think you could say it was human.”
Using bobheaded supervillain George Lopez and looney loner Steve Buscemi to spew two of the rawest quotes in modern cinema is definitely an approach by Robert Rodriguez, is it a good or bad approach? Judge that by yourself
@@ihH6053 George Lopez is one of those actors that you don't even have to double take if it's them. His face is distinct, his voice is incredibly distinct.
Robert Rodriguez' approach to making kids movies was equal parts complete insanity and actual thematic exploration. Not necessarily in sync though, more like just randomly switching on the meaningful dialogue every fifty minutes and then going back to nonsense.
This reminds me of that Orson Welles quote (can't remember the movie) where he says that 100 years of Italian bloodshed gave us Leonardo and the Renaissance, while 400 years of Swedish brotherhood gave us the Cuckoo Clock.
That's from "The Third Man", when his character attempts to justify the horror of his actions to the Hero. Saw it with my mum at the cinema in 2021 (that's a cinema that only shows retro films).
@@ilikedinosaurs392 In "The Thrid Man", Orson Welles' character is seling some drugs and, for reasons that I forgot a bit, it ends up killing toddlers becuase that's what the hospitals gives to them. The hero calls him out on this, as a friend of his, and Orson defends his selling of the drug, its repercussion, and the fact he wants the Hero to join this enterprise by saying "You know, disaster is what births great things anyway. Look at Italy, bloodshed and murders everywhere and they gave us Leonardo and the Renaissance. Then the Swedish Brotherhood allowed peace in Switzerland. Their contribution to mankind? The Cuckoo clock!"
Fun fact: fifteen different inventors made their own version of the electric light bulb before Thomas Edison patented his design, meanwhile hundreds of scientists were employed by the Manhattan Project.
This director is literally the king of making god-awful movies with the worst CGI and acting you've ever seen and yet drops the most deep and meaningful quotes in cinema history in those same movies. He's also the writer behind the line "Do you think God stays in heaven because he too fears what he has created?" in SpyKids 2. Genius and madness in one. Glorious.
The fact that Robert Rodriguez does all of that completely intentionally is why I respect him as a filmmaker. He leans on the cheesiness and ham, and he does it expertly.
I mean Sharkboy and Lava girl was based on his son's writing. My cousin's kid has a DVD/bluray whatever and that was mentioned in the movie commentary. Yes he was so addicted to that movie he (and because I babysat him it became we) even watched the commentary.
Exactly. People point at the cheese and be like “look, bad movie!” As if that’s contributing anything meaningful to the conversation. These are silly movies for kids, but they have so much heart. I don’t measure art numerically, as in, “if there’s this many mistakes or goofs then it sucks,” if you do then your critiques are as shallow as cinema sins.
I think he kind of does all this on purpose (although the acting is a bit too bad in some cases). He has a low budget and uses it deliberately. In Shark Boy and Lava Girl, I think the idea was to make everything look video gamey ion Planet Drool to appeal to the kids watching and heighten the sense that the planet was built from their peers' dreams. "Planet Drool - Where Kids Rule"
@@matityaloran9157 Technical correction: Edison perfected the lightbulb, not created it. It was an already existing technology, but usually didn't last for more than a few minutes.
It's a bit darker in latin spanish: "for every person that dreams about the electric lightbulb, there's another that dreams about the holocaust of the atomic bomb"
@generalmarkmilleyisbenedic8895 Every person who born in latin america is latino. That's the name cause our language came from Latin, just like Italian.
@@generalmarkmilleyisbenedic8895 Latin was also a language that spawned many different other languages and dialects, like italian, portuguese, spanish, etc. We call it Latin America because it's a region encompasing most of South America, Center America and Mexico that talks latin languages, like spanish and portuguese. But it's different in many ways to the spanish spoken in the iberic peninsula. So, most spanish-speaking differentiate between the spanish spoken in Latin America and the iberic spanish spoken in Spain, calling it latin spanish, as opposed to iberic or hispanic spanish which also has a lot of idioms, dialects and unique identities. And wow, Sherlock, yes, you could say I'm hispanic, which it's a pretty genius take on your behalf, considering I'm talking about a movie I watched in latin spanish. I congratulate your vast deductive skills. Do you also want to guess if I'm spaniard or latino? Oh, and shut that condescending act. If you want to teach, then sure, share your info. If you want to smell your own farts, at the very least get your stuff right. Latins didn't came from Rome, they were colonized by Rome
This movie was extremely god awful and I loved every moment of it. Edit: Judging from the number of likes, seems like I'm not the only one that enjoyed this movie and that makes me happy.
Very much agreed. I have a relative who is barely even 8, but she's way smarter and better at absorbing information than I thought I was at that age. I learned the hard way not to double down on the coddling or underestimation of our youth, and I hope the rest of the world can learn the easier way and make things smoother for everyone.
The "Pay a man enough, and he'll walk barefoot into hell" line from Gargoyles. The entirety of the Lich's monologue to Finn in Adventure Time. Stuff made for kids drop some of the hardest dialogue.
Man, I never expected soemthing this profound from a Mexican comedian like George Lopez. Maybe a Mexican comedian like Gabriel Iglesias, but not George Lopez.
You know what’s really wild. Waking up from a dream and saying I’m going to build the most fucked up weapon humanity has in its disposal simply because why not.
The invention of the atom bomb was inevitable. It was only a matter of who would do it first. It simply would've been irresponsible for the US not to pursue the bomb like everyone else was
It’s funny that this movie is deep af with its message about not only believing in your dreams but working for it, then there’s the “close your eyes shut your mouth dream a dream and get us out” scene
It _is_ the weirdest movie you have ever watched. This movie is the pure definition of ‘bizarre’, and that’s why I would always watch it each time it aired on Disney Channel 😂
Yeah, actually really profound Humanity will think of the most beautiful and innovative creations while also inventing some of the most horrific things
It's weird how movies for younger audiences have quotes so much deeper and more relevant than movies meant for adults. SpyKids 2: "Do you think God stays in Heaven because he lives in fear of what he's created?"
No that makes sense. They are meant to not be some long winded message that forgets it's own point but something easily digestible that a kid can understand the logic of. It doesn't try and present itself as profound but simply a matter of fact. Like a parent trying to impart wisdom to their kid. Not to mention imparting said wisdom when someone is young helps have that message stick out more or become a core part of that persons mentality going forward. I remember that was how I embraced nihilism as a kid because of American Dragon Jake Long. "If all you can see is the bad things in the future, all the small happiness of the world become that much brighter" which is a paraphrased quote from one of the twins in that show who could see the future but only the bad yet she was happy and giddy. Meanwhile her sister who could see only the good was moody and miserable cause it takes the fun out of life.
@@RavenCloak13 Pretty sure that quote espouses idealism and that cynicism gets you nowhere, not nihilism. I remember starting to doubt my own religious faith in my younger years, but it was weirdly a one-off episode from Avatar: The Last Airbender that headed me off from that path. I can't recall the full quote, but paraphrased, "Time is just an illusion, and we are all connected by great roots". Granted, A;TLA was one of those more serious shows that wasn't nearly as campy/silly as this movie, but it still impacted me a lot more than people might think. Folks out to give those old cartoons a bit more credit.
@@mrreyes5004 No it's nihilism. Nothing matters so don't worry about it because nothing has intrinsic value. You, me, the world. Nothing. Everything is worthless till worth is placed on it by someone. If I just assume bad things will happen I won't be disappointed. Hasn't been proven wrong yet on that. And as such if nothing bad does happen then that's good. I would rather be wrong then right because being wrong makes me happy and being right doesn't set me up for disappointment hoping it doesn't happen. Nothing is the protagonist, the star, the main reason everything is. Everything just is, without thought. Which is comforting. Otherwise I would have game ended myself at like 12.
Recently heard a great quote "The future doesn't begin tomorrow, it begins today." Heard it in Girls und Panzer, don't know if that's the origin though.
If I had a nickel for every time a fever dream childhood movie had a strangely deep quote, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.
I always loved some of Bison's lines in the SF movie. Everyone remember's "tuesday", but the characters last lines were: "...for I beheld Satan as he fell from heaven! LIKE LIGHTNING!!". Julia's delivery was fucking amazing, and those were his last lines ever spoken on film.
The more clips I watch from those movies, the more I think they were actually fun movies with good writing rather than being the pathetic punching bag the internet tends to frame these movies as

I watched Oppenheimer and I’d consider him a pos narcissist too, honestly
@@GigaDonk99 i saw Oppenheimer and i... actually do not understand why you'd see him that way at all. can you explain a bit? maybe i missed something.
@@GigaDonk99 Oppenheimer wasn’t the person who dreamed up the atom bomb, he’s the one who made the dream a reality. It was Einstein and Szilard who suggested the creation of the bomb and even then they weren’t the ones who dreamed it up, Dr. Werner Heisenberg was the one who was first trying to build it for Hitler. (And he wasn’t even the first person to whom the idea occurred.)
@@matityaloran9157excuse me, WHO was making the nuke for Hitler?
This quote on a fundamental level seems to imply that no matter how much good humanity spreads, there will always be someone spreading even more suffering.
ok but that's a raw line
Oh. Is that really why people like it so much?
Yep, that’s how it do be.
Ironically, the Atom Bomb was the LESS destructive option at the time.
Think about that.
“It was insane and it did terrible things, but, but at first, it was so human."
"It was a wonderful creature, capable of great good, and great evil. Yes, I think you could say it was human.”
I literally got an Oppenheimer ad before this
Why did George Lopez have to be the one to say something this deep?
Using bobheaded supervillain George Lopez and looney loner Steve Buscemi to spew two of the rawest quotes in modern cinema is definitely an approach by Robert Rodriguez, is it a good or bad approach? Judge that by yourself
After i watched this a couple of times I did stop and think “wait is that George Lopez?!?!?”
@@JustKrin I mean I KNOW Steve Buscemi is a dramatic actor. But George Lopez can barely act in his field
@@ihH6053 George Lopez is one of those actors that you don't even have to double take if it's them. His face is distinct, his voice is incredibly distinct.
I don’t think his stand up is very well known but he was saying some deep shit then
Robert Rodriguez' approach to making kids movies was equal parts complete insanity and actual thematic exploration. Not necessarily in sync though, more like just randomly switching on the meaningful dialogue every fifty minutes and then going back to nonsense.
He'll be making a low quality kids movie and just drop some real poetry out of nowhere and go back to low quality
@@pmchadhis whole MO right there
Based profile picture
The kids movies and TV shows that stuck with us into adulthood were the weird ones, after all.
Bravo, Robert.
Yeah the series really went hardcore with the quotes.
"Do you think God Stays in his heaven because he too fears his creation?"
This reminds me of that Orson Welles quote (can't remember the movie) where he says that 100 years of Italian bloodshed gave us Leonardo and the Renaissance, while 400 years of Swedish brotherhood gave us the Cuckoo Clock.
That's from "The Third Man", when his character attempts to justify the horror of his actions to the Hero.
Saw it with my mum at the cinema in 2021 (that's a cinema that only shows retro films).
Could you explain the quote to me? I don't understand hah
@@ilikedinosaurs392 In "The Thrid Man", Orson Welles' character is seling some drugs and, for reasons that I forgot a bit, it ends up killing toddlers becuase that's what the hospitals gives to them.
The hero calls him out on this, as a friend of his, and Orson defends his selling of the drug, its repercussion, and the fact he wants the Hero to join this enterprise by saying "You know, disaster is what births great things anyway. Look at Italy, bloodshed and murders everywhere and they gave us Leonardo and the Renaissance. Then the Swedish Brotherhood allowed peace in Switzerland. Their contribution to mankind? The Cuckoo clock!"
@@ilikedinosaurs392 A century of war evolved mankind, four centuries of peace brought us nothing.

Fun fact: fifteen different inventors made their own version of the electric light bulb before Thomas Edison patented his design, meanwhile hundreds of scientists were employed by the Manhattan Project.
Nth Country Experiment
I'M THOMAS EDISON! I INVENTED IT!
@@JennBitBowler Hat Guy: "I INVENTED IT! ME! ME! ME!!!"
Edison stole the project. Tesla *properly* invented it.
And Edison was kind of a dick, while Oppenheimer spent the rest of his life regretting his work
Speak for yourself: Some movies can unironically also have funny quotes.
“I’ll get you, and it’ll look like a bloody accident.”
That same scene gave us the classic "You're not just wrong, you're stupid!"
God The Cat in the Hat is just Austin Powers in a fursuit and it will always have a special place in my heart for that reason 😂
I had forgotten that the live action cat in the hat had such bizarre quotes in it. What the heck was that movie?
@brandenhauser1635 the greatest movie of all time.
@@ArtsyLGStylesI’ve never heard it put like that, but it makes so much sense
This director is literally the king of making god-awful movies with the worst CGI and acting you've ever seen and yet drops the most deep and meaningful quotes in cinema history in those same movies. He's also the writer behind the line "Do you think God stays in heaven because he too fears what he has created?" in SpyKids 2. Genius and madness in one. Glorious.
The fact that Robert Rodriguez does all of that completely intentionally is why I respect him as a filmmaker. He leans on the cheesiness and ham, and he does it expertly.
I mean Sharkboy and Lava girl was based on his son's writing. My cousin's kid has a DVD/bluray whatever and that was mentioned in the movie commentary. Yes he was so addicted to that movie he (and because I babysat him it became we) even watched the commentary.
Exactly. People point at the cheese and be like “look, bad movie!” As if that’s contributing anything meaningful to the conversation. These are silly movies for kids, but they have so much heart. I don’t measure art numerically, as in, “if there’s this many mistakes or goofs then it sucks,” if you do then your critiques are as shallow as cinema sins.
I think he kind of does all this on purpose (although the acting is a bit too bad in some cases). He has a low budget and uses it deliberately.
In Shark Boy and Lava Girl, I think the idea was to make everything look video gamey ion Planet Drool to appeal to the kids watching and heighten the sense that the planet was built from their peers' dreams.
"Planet Drool - Where Kids Rule"
imagine putting this in a guess the movie by the quote
I got one for you:
For every man who dreams up the electric lightbulb, there is also the man who dreams up the electric chair.
Underrated af
Actually the same people were involved in the creation of both of those things.
For every android who dreams of electric sheep, there is also the android who dreams of unicorns.
Goes hard
@@matityaloran9157 Technical correction: Edison perfected the lightbulb, not created it. It was an already existing technology, but usually didn't last for more than a few minutes.
It's a bit darker in latin spanish: "for every person that dreams about the electric lightbulb, there's another that dreams about the holocaust of the atomic bomb"
Soooo spanish? The latins were a tribe in central italy. Most notably they came from a certain city called “Rome”. I guess youre hispanic.
@generalmarkmilleyisbenedic8895 Every person who born in latin america is latino. That's the name cause our language came from Latin, just like Italian.
@@generalmarkmilleyisbenedic8895 Latin was also a language that spawned many different other languages and dialects, like italian, portuguese, spanish, etc. We call it Latin America because it's a region encompasing most of South America, Center America and Mexico that talks latin languages, like spanish and portuguese. But it's different in many ways to the spanish spoken in the iberic peninsula. So, most spanish-speaking differentiate between the spanish spoken in Latin America and the iberic spanish spoken in Spain, calling it latin spanish, as opposed to iberic or hispanic spanish which also has a lot of idioms, dialects and unique identities.
And wow, Sherlock, yes, you could say I'm hispanic, which it's a pretty genius take on your behalf, considering I'm talking about a movie I watched in latin spanish. I congratulate your vast deductive skills. Do you also want to guess if I'm spaniard or latino?
Oh, and shut that condescending act. If you want to teach, then sure, share your info. If you want to smell your own farts, at the very least get your stuff right. Latins didn't came from Rome, they were colonized by Rome

@@RoyalAspects True, at the end of the day, this movie was successful in achieving what movies are meant for. Entertainment.
Yes, it’s a bad movie, but it was enjoyably bad.
This film is practically the whole of the 2000s when it came to kid/teen superhero films. Sky High and Spy Kids come to mind

Robert Rodriguez knows that children can be smarter than we give them credit for, we just need to have faith and treat them as such.
Very much agreed. I have a relative who is barely even 8, but she's way smarter and better at absorbing information than I thought I was at that age. I learned the hard way not to double down on the coddling or underestimation of our youth, and I hope the rest of the world can learn the easier way and make things smoother for everyone.
For some reason i thought he was gonna say electric chair
It's amazing that a direct to home video sequel to a kids movie has lived on for over twenty years.
This was in theaters, a major release
Buddy, I saw this in a theater

This is from Sharkboy and Lavagirl, not a sequel to another movie.

The "Pay a man enough, and he'll walk barefoot into hell" line from Gargoyles. The entirety of the Lich's monologue to Finn in Adventure Time.
Stuff made for kids drop some of the hardest dialogue.
And then you got quotes like "SOMEBODY RING THE DINKSTER?"
Man, I never expected soemthing this profound from a Mexican comedian like George Lopez. Maybe a Mexican comedian like Gabriel Iglesias, but not George Lopez.
He didnt write the line, he just acted it

Only once we deem what is good, does anything else become evil.
You know what’s really wild. Waking up from a dream and saying I’m going to build the most fucked up weapon humanity has in its disposal simply because why not.
Have we become less violent since the creation of nuclear weapons at least on a national level? 🤔
No
Because it'd be a tactical advantage. People like that prioritize efficiency and only see their "enemies" as numbers.
The invention of the atom bomb was inevitable. It was only a matter of who would do it first. It simply would've been irresponsible for the US not to pursue the bomb like everyone else was
@@GiraffeVortex I wouldn't call it less violent, more being extra cautious as to not get the sun dropped on everyone
It’s funny that this movie is deep af with its message about not only believing in your dreams but working for it, then there’s the “close your eyes shut your mouth dream a dream and get us out” scene
this movie was like a fever dream
Shark boy and lava girl was probably the weirdest movie I have ever watched
It _is_ the weirdest movie you have ever watched. This movie is the pure definition of ‘bizarre’, and that’s why I would always watch it each time it aired on Disney Channel 😂
Yeah, actually really profound
Humanity will think of the most beautiful and innovative creations while also inventing some of the most horrific things
"Mr. Electric must go to a prison!"
This could have been snuck in as a CIV 6 quote after researching nuclear fission
This Has Better CG Than Most Recent DC AND Marvel Movies
I legit thought this was antman 3 at first
Even as a kid I thought this quote was intense.
It's weird how movies for younger audiences have quotes so much deeper and more relevant than movies meant for adults.
SpyKids 2: "Do you think God stays in Heaven because he lives in fear of what he's created?"
No that makes sense.
They are meant to not be some long winded message that forgets it's own point but something easily digestible that a kid can understand the logic of. It doesn't try and present itself as profound but simply a matter of fact. Like a parent trying to impart wisdom to their kid.
Not to mention imparting said wisdom when someone is young helps have that message stick out more or become a core part of that persons mentality going forward. I remember that was how I embraced nihilism as a kid because of American Dragon Jake Long. "If all you can see is the bad things in the future, all the small happiness of the world become that much brighter" which is a paraphrased quote from one of the twins in that show who could see the future but only the bad yet she was happy and giddy. Meanwhile her sister who could see only the good was moody and miserable cause it takes the fun out of life.
@@RavenCloak13 Pretty sure that quote espouses idealism and that cynicism gets you nowhere, not nihilism. I remember starting to doubt my own religious faith in my younger years, but it was weirdly a one-off episode from Avatar: The Last Airbender that headed me off from that path. I can't recall the full quote, but paraphrased, "Time is just an illusion, and we are all connected by great roots".
Granted, A;TLA was one of those more serious shows that wasn't nearly as campy/silly as this movie, but it still impacted me a lot more than people might think. Folks out to give those old cartoons a bit more credit.
Made by the same guy as this one.
@@mrreyes5004
No it's nihilism.
Nothing matters so don't worry about it because nothing has intrinsic value. You, me, the world. Nothing. Everything is worthless till worth is placed on it by someone. If I just assume bad things will happen I won't be disappointed. Hasn't been proven wrong yet on that. And as such if nothing bad does happen then that's good. I would rather be wrong then right because being wrong makes me happy and being right doesn't set me up for disappointment hoping it doesn't happen.
Nothing is the protagonist, the star, the main reason everything is. Everything just is, without thought. Which is comforting. Otherwise I would have game ended myself at like 12.
Ummmmmmmmmmmmmm
No?
Also this isn’t deep or profound…
I fear for the next generation….. yall are kinda sad…
This movie had so many profound quotes.
The gesticulations his little claw hands make to go along with his facial expressions are what really make this.
Recently heard a great quote "The future doesn't begin tomorrow, it begins today."
Heard it in Girls und Panzer, don't know if that's the origin though.
this movie was absolutely wilding
The moment you realize that a low budget movie targeted to children from almost 2 decades ago has better writing than most "mature" entertainment...
Quite the bold statement

I think it would’ve had more punch if he said electric chair instead of atom bomb
Oppenheimer: *"This Man gets it."*
