She's All Matt

     Everything's coming up Tyler as we dive into two films he deeply loves. Because we might hate ourselves a little.
     A late 90s teenage romantic comedy that makes eyes at being self-aware and having something to say but then dodges all of that by embracing the tropes without hesitation or thought. It's possible She's All That but the movie probably isn't.
     The second feature from a director of singular vision. In a world where the elite are safe on a space station and everyone else lives in a Mad Maxclone if it was made by Paul Schrader, a lone white guy will rise up to save the day for all the... you know... I get it means well but there's some problematic shit here. Movies like this thinking they are saying something is why humanity will never run the fields of Elysium.
     All that and Dave weeps again, Tyler tries to convert you to his doomsday cult, Kevin takes up dance instruction for seniors, and Craig gleefully plots against us all. Join us, won't you?
