I think they got the idea of him breathing out all the air and being alright from how breathing works in space. You can survive in the vacuum of space for a while if you breathe out all the air in your lungs first.

[@DustinBarlow8P]

Every movie is based off of a past movie. If you mean all they are doing is making sequels, than they would be the executives at these companies fault. However as is the case with Video Games, moves will never get better, until people start only giving money to movies that have earned their money. The fact that Disney is still making money on some of their movies, has shown me, that I overestimated the intellect level of people.

Hey Ryan Thank you for all the laughs and entertainment you've brought us. I hope you're doing well physically and mentally. Just know you got a lot of love and support out there!

[@neo-filthyfrank1347]

Cringe tbh. Stop talking about "mental and physical health" when there is no reason to bring it up. We don't need to normalize being coddled little freaks.

If 1:11 was a genuine ad for audible, not gonna lie, that was the best and shortest delivery of an ad ever in KZbin videos 😂🎉🙌 I hope y’all got paid for that second lololol

[@ayanamireiii]

"I'm done talking" part always cracks me up. 😄

[@guyvizard549]

I 100% believe this is exactly how the actual pitch went down, verbatim.

[@8584zender]

Maybe a little more from the studio head pushing for writing, plot points and marketing targeted to the Asian market.

[@hfbvmARF]

@@8584zender The movie is so weird, the antagonists are Sharks, dinosaurs, Kraken and terrorists. Its like a free for all the whole movie.

[@perfectsoulmates2023]

☀️ You can clearly see how HAPPY Ryan is in this video 🙌🏼

[@RafaElorduy]

The "something has to happen for people to be massively educated about deep ocean pressure" part just made my life better.

[@Goremize]

Mentioning all of us learning about the pressures of water recently is something I was not expecting

[@jon_ovo3653]

Lmfao referencing ocean gate non directly is tight 😂😂😂

[@timopper5488]

You really nailed it with the human conflict versus shark action. I really enjoyed the first movie, so I was pretty excited to see this one, expecting much more of the last part of the movie which was PROMINENTLY presented in the trailer.

[@moretac]

But that last part on fun island was so insane and over the top that I still came away pretty entertained and satisfied with the movie.

[@timopper5488]

@@moretac Oh no doubt!! I just wish that much more of the movie took place there.

[@maxshepherd4855]

there was literally more shark screentime in this one than the first.

[@timopper5488]

@@maxshepherd4855 I’ll take your word on that, but clearly it wasn’t dispersed very well throughout.

[@nickholcomb2220]

Casually withstanding the entire weight of the ocean at that size is genuinely like some Omni Man level of durability feat that these suits are apparently capable of lmao

[@SupremeGreatGrandmaster]

Jason isn't even wearing one of the suits when he goes swimming 25,000 feet below sea level.

[@muskyoxes]

But deep sea fish don't have armor, right? Right?

[@james_tiberius_kirk73]

Who knew watching a movie in this _New_ _Age_ would only take me around 5 minutes or so? Epic as always Ryan and gidday from AUSTRALIA.

[@Paul_Wetor]

Pitch Meetings are like Cliffs Notes with sarcasm.

[@bestintheband5114]

"Something NUTS would have to happen for a mass education on oceanic pressure" 💀

[@oceaninks]

This was easily better than the movie that I didn't see. Holy crap this was funny. 😂❤

[@roy5815]

Ryan makes such clever jokes, you just wanna take notes and replay that thing a few times before you even consider laughing cz they are such works of arts

[@MasterTSayge]

0:56 His reaction was the same as mines! I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS BASED ON BOOKS TOO! I Love Pitch Meetings!!! 😄

[@neo-filthyfrank1347]

Not like the books are any better tbh

[@PierceMD]

I've been contemplating going the theatres for this!

[@AlexLee-dc2vb]

that bit about Ocean Gate was genius

[@DXTRIPLEHBK]

I really wanna see the Pitch Meetings for Good Omens 1 & 2. Ryan's humor is fantastic!

[@sirellyn]

Just saw Good Omens 2, had to fast forward through most of it, it was so unbelievably bad...

[@DXTRIPLEHBK]

@@sirellyn I'm sorry you feel that way.

[@gentblue]

​@@sirellynI watched the first 2 episodes and the complete lack of PTerry is sadly obvious. It's like they read all the gay jokes in the comments and decided that's how they would do a sequel.

[@DXTRIPLEHBK]

@@gentblue It's literally always been a love story. Lol!

[@chrisreager2614]

Saw it last week. Knew instantly the Pitch Meeting would be awesome!

[@samuel3176]

Offscreen deathanitis 🤣🤣🤣🤣 That one sent me

[@Sanj1n]

Hilarious movie but I think the pitch meeting will be funnier for sure 😅

[@bagpussmacfarlan9008]

Just watched this and was desperately hoping there was a pitch meeting...nailed it totally 😁

[@2nd3rd1st]

Pronouncing Jason Statham with a soft TH is the ultimate roast.

[@marceloaam]

4:21 happy that the "ha" is back!

[@jackrendall4013]

This is definitely my favorite pitch meeting in a while! Keep up the good work Ryan 👍
