At least 38% -- The other 62% still vote the way the way they do in spite of their suspicions.

The man cannot tell the truth, so it's perfectly on-brand.

Fast forward 100 years, and we'll be working on anti-ad glasses that counteract the Meta glasses that counteract the anti-ad glasses that counteract the Elon eye implants. 😔

If it's not "baked in" to the video, then it seems like it should be trivial to detect and block the ad... Ugh, or else it's literally new technological horrors beyond my comprehension, which is also very possible.

What made it so effective?

It's a testament to the power of artfulness in filmmaking, which is all the more effective in our present setting because so many of its peers are little more than hollow investment vehicles for the wealthy to get wealthier.

One of the major traits of films directed by Eggers is his "strict attention to detail".

A24 is also known for the originality and artistic style of films it produces, generally shunning the style of films produced or released by the major film studios...

To be a bit more specific, I think The Lighthouse was so effective because it had everything a film needs to be effective: Every component was carefully planned and masterfully executed, a collaboration of countless professionals at the top of their game with the funding and studio support they needed to get the project done, and without any distracting baggage like product placement, surprise cameos, merchandise, or jarring music/editing choices.

Perfectly on-brand: He got what he needed, so now fuck you.

Hockey sticks moving the puck resemble brooms sweeping, so we could call it "Brooms," which leaves us with either NBA or MLB, so we need a new name for Basketball and/or Baseball.

I've lived here my whole life, and I'm still not sure myself.
