"In another life, I would have really liked just doing laundry and taxes with you." BROKE me. It's one of my favorite lines in the movie.

[@kbaylor123]

There are some really beautiful quotes in this movie - I like "Please, be kind. Especially when we don't know what's going on" I'm trying to carry that one with me.

[@barbararommy]

I cried my eyes out with that

[@monkeytime9851]

I will admit it. That made me cry. And I'm a tough manly man (evidently not).

[@thekububeach]

True. Especially if you had experience in the past related to that. I bet I'm not the only one.

[@flores5420]

The fact that Waymond is living the ideal dream life of the rich and successful Waymond is so powerful, it just shows how much he loves Evelyn

[@yanorton]

As a mama, the rock scene broke me down. Especially, when Joy was like let me go and then her mom still rolled after her. I went and laid on my 14 year old son half crying. I told him "if we were rocks, I'd follow you off a cliff". He was like 🤨😳.

[@This_RuthIsOnFire]

Seen an interview with Michelle Yeoh where they were talking about her most iconic roles, like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Crazy Rich Asians. She broke down into tears when she started talking about Everything Everywhere All At Once because she felt she finally got to show the type of acting she had always wanted to do, not just action star. It was a moving interview. Can't remember the interview, but it was one of those ones like from GQ or something like that.

[@joex8au04]

@@JT-cm9di there’s two ways to interpret this black hole. Joyce told her mom that she can finally find peace by entering through the hole, this can either mean, she find peace in death, or she can finally leave her parent, and finally be herself. I’m incline towards the former, I have also talked to few people that had previous mental health issue, they all agree former is more sounded when looking at the message of this movie.

[@Cynry]

@@joex8au04 I think that's reading too much, and I have mental health issues. Letting go is just what you do with the people you actually love, I think that's what was meant in the movie.

[@Jasmine_U_B]

This movie changed my entire outlook on life. Not even joking. This and interstellar fight for the top spot. But this hit me particularly hard when I saw it. I’d say it was the right film at the right time for me. The “In another life…” line really speaks to married or long term relationship people. Sometimes the mundanity is nauseating but would you want to do it with anyone else?

[@JT-cm9di]

A theme park give you fun, thrill and excitement but it only last for a while; a good cinema not only make you feels every emotion but it also make you start to re-think the meaning of your life again.

[@harveyblue4108]

Brother we are literally the same

[@user-ft3ul5lp6z]

hey Nikki and Steven, a little trivia: the googly eyes (white with black center) are the opposite of the bagel (black with white center). It's Waymond's positive outlook in life VS Joy's depressive nihilism.

[@nuhuh9893]

I never noticed that, it's like the yin and yang symbol, and I thought there was a kind of Buddhist tone to the movie. It's like with the sausage fingers they used their feet instead and were still able to play beautiful music on the piano and were positive because negativity leads towards the black hole of depression and apathy. The rock scene was beautiful, they were literally at rock bottom isolated within themselves, Joy didn't want Evelyn to come closer and then at the end there is a brief scene of the rocks and planets colliding. This movie is so deep and rich with symbolism, it's just a masterpiece, one of a kind.

Y’all are too young to remember but in the 1970’s, we had Pet Rocks! They were rocks with Googlie eyes. There were two in a box and you named them, took them everywhere you went and treated them like actual pets. They were so cute! Someone was a frickin’ genius to think of putting eyes on rocks and use the gullibility of everyone to buy those things. I mean everyone in high school had to have them and give them as presents for Christmas’, birthdays. Whenever!

Here's something I haven't heard anybody mention: The traditional masculine and feminine roles were reversed for the couple of Evelyn and her husband, and you probably didn't even notice or care. It didn't beat you over the head with any virtue signaling etc. They just did it and did it perfectly.

[@laurakali6522]

A movie that has rocks that can make you feel emotion is a movie that only comes along once in a lifetime, IMO. I left the theatre feeling like I had three hours of special therapy.

[@phousefilms]

Her husband bringing her back from her nihilistic breakdown is so beautiful and so amazing and the entirety of the rest of the film is just FANTASTIC. I love the "this is how I fight."monologue and Evelyn using her knowledge of the different worlds to help the people trying to fight her.

The scene where the entire family is holding joy on the stairs and won’t let go (suicidal tendencies?) really hit me. Also when successful waymond tells he he’d chose to be doing laundry and taxes w her 😭😭😭😭😭😭 This movie was about love! Jobu was suffering with all the fractures and still all she wanted was her mom by her side 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@chand911]

Not a tendency, that was actively her goal once her mother couldn't offer a reason to stay.

[@sproutyoon6128]

YES!! knowing that joy/jobu had been put through so much pain, yet always went back to her mom. despite the hurt and the fractures, she still went looking through all the universes to find her :(

[@jollygirl94]

I felt like she wanted a mum to understand her, and die with her. Yet when beta waymond persuaded Evelyn from her sociapath mindset to embracing appreciation and love. Evelyn didn’t want to die. So jobu wants everyone to die no matter if her mum wants to do a suicidal pact or not. The whole family preventing Joy from dying was impactful. And Showing the daughter running in the laundromat emphasis that she’s just her daughter. As a villian u want to let her go. Deep down she’s still her daughter. She needs to know what she’s doing is hurting her mum, her family.

[@sayjaibao01188]

Jobu Tupaki represented all the pent up anger and sadness, she wanted to destroy everything just to feel loved by her mother.

[@stevencleere4912]

Because what hurting child doesn't want their mom?

[@papa_xan]

This was certainly the best movie I've seen in many years. The acting, the story, the cinematography, and visuals were all just perfect. Michelle Yeoh put in the performance of her career, as did Ke Huy Quan who hasn't acted since the 80's in The Goonies and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. The daughter, played by Stephanie Hsu, was fantastic, and of course Jamie Lee Curtis killed it as the IRS agent. There were no weak spots in my opinion. It really makes the Dr Strange MoM look bad in comparison to how the multiverse was portrayed. Plus this movie cost about 10% of what that one cost ($25 million compared to $200 million) it's a shame this one won't make a billion dollars.

“I’m useless alone… We’re all useless alone… good thing you’re not alone.” Suicide isn’t the answer folks. If you’re considering it please reach out. The world is better with you in it & transcending that pain makes you a hero who can help someone else who is currently going through it.

I was lucky to catch this in theaters. It was amazing. We were all laughing, bawling and sniffling. Waymonds part absolutely broke me. When she can’t understand how he helped and his voice breaks when he says, “idk. I just talked to her.” 🥺🥺 Then we see all the little moments of his kindness and silliness that makes her happy. That’s what they were both missing. Her and Joy. Remember when Joy says that’s why she was looking for her mom? To see if she could see something that she missed. They weren’t seeing Waymonds kindness. Also, the bagel represents Joys despair and depression. At the end, it’s super important that it’s Joy who reaches out for her moms hand. She wants help. Then Joys speech about letting her go? Omg the actress is so good. Then their embrace being shown with planets colliding? Like it’s saying that’s just as powerful? So beautiful. I’m crying all over again. Lol 🥹🥹🥹😭😭😭 PS: it was one of the best movie experiences of my life. We wept, laughed, bawled. After movie, there were about 7-8 of us. All strangers.

I know as married couple and parents you guys gonna ADORE this movie, and sure you did. This is a freaking masterpiece

[@Saphthings]

You know, I've finally realized after rewatching this several times, the Alpha Joy, becoming Jobu means that in that universe that Joy was the "worst Joy", the one that failed at everything. Because Alpha Weymond said that in order for the mind to be able to handle all those and access all possibilities they had to be from the universe where every choice was the "wrong" choice. And then Joy at the end tells her mom, "Why wouldn't you choose to be in a place where your daughter is better than this", "this" being "me". So Jobu's Joy was a Joy that failed at everything, in a universe where her mother was the ultimate genius, and she went looking for the one universe where her mom failed at everything just like her. So she was looking for someone who's an ultimate failure like her to tell her there's an upside, a reason to go on, that she couldn't see. So no matter where you are in the multiverse, where you are in existence, by becoming everything everywhere all at once, no matter how high you are, you get the feeling of your worst low, at all times and your worst low gets to see first hand at all times all that you'll never have. So nothing you've ever done matters, and nothing you ever did mattered.

one detail I like about this film is that one of the directors wanting it to be about a mother with undiagnosed ADHD (hence with her not focusing on the moment and only listening when its urgent and even amplified when she was jumping into different verses).

It seems like it’s there purely for humor & “randomness” but it’s really there to highlight the movies thesis statement on optimistic nihilism or optimism in the face of accepted nihilism. Joy & wayman both accept the absurd & meaninglessness of the universe but approach it in different ways.

[@munkqiking7207]

The term youre lookin for is absurdism. The "optimistic nihilism" you refer to and Waymond highlights is absurdism. Its the philosophy that posits that the universe is inherently absurd and without meaning, but the beauty in that is that we make our own meaning and find our own purpose in it. Often that is simply live and love as Waymond exemplifies, vs the nihilism ie. Joy who posits that without meaning why does anything matter? Its a perfect dichotomy and examination of the two philosophies that are almost polar opposites and highlights absurdism (probably one of the lesser known, but my favorite philosophy nonetheless) as a solution.

fun BTS fact: the shot of the 'feet' playing Clair De Lune on the piano is actually done with hands but wearing prosthetic 'feet gloves' lol

There’s interviews with Michelle Yeoh and Jamie Lee Curtis, and it seemed like they had so much fun working together, and have so much respect and love for each other 🥺

[@Vdrum1010]

I love that, with every EEAAO video reaction, there's an 'Oh hey, that's Jamie Lee Curtis! :D' moment.

"This just feels like chaos" 3 minutes into the movie lol... my dude you are no ready

[@crystalfire5564]

A movie that gets people crying over two rocks! It’s amazing!

[@41Vega]

I love the “I get it now” around 5 min in…oh you have no idea..such a great movie

[@BattlerClerk]

I saw this movie when it came out in theaters months ago and have seen it multiple times since loving it just as much as you both did the first time. It is truly an emotional and uplifting experience that I can’t compare to any other piece of media out there. I will surely be thinking about it for years to come. I’m so happy you both enjoyed it ❤️

As an older guy who has experienced - first hand - watching hundreds of movies since the 1960's, Everything, Everywhere, All at Once rises to the top of best edited films of all time. That's no mean feat. I'm so glad it won so many Academy Awards, but am especially glad it won for editing. Without the surgical precision of Paul Roger's edits, this film could have descended into a chaotic mess. And yet it became one of the best films in years.

As someone that has been trough some difficult times recently, i just cried my eyes out with Joy trying to enter into the bagel. It's a clear reference to suicide and it's heartbreaking.

I've been paying fairly close attention to movies for 60+ years and in production and concept this is the most astonishing work of film art I've seen this century. There is a 'behind the scenes' choreography video on YT.

[@roumiaou]

How can you not cry to this ? One of you two did. Thank you.

[@giuliamarquez6938]

your connection as a couple is so obvious even through the screen! something kinda silly but that i think might reflect on how he treats her is the “are you ready” in the beggining of the videos. i know is for the purpose of the videos but it sounds so respectful that it leads me to think its how you treat each other in other situations💖

[@j9lorna]

The Daniels knocking it out of the park for a second time, both of their movies are top 10 for me.

[@dj2257]

Absolutely LOVED this movie. So original and fun, with a strong emotional core. Great acting, choreography, cinematography, editing. One of my favorite movies in the last few years.

[@wraith1701]

Easily the best movie I’ve seen this year. Entertaining in all of the easy ways (action, laughs, and spectacle) AND it actually has SOMETHING TO SAY. Outstanding.

[@kristianmingle]

I cried so much during the last half of this movie. Then two seconds later I’d be laughing. Such an amazing movie. Amazing.

[@madmanjeshiro8288]

Kudos to the people that worked hard to create this movie. It was an epic movie that I would love watching again.

[@DimSumShum]

Early on, Evelyn says her life would've been great if she hadn't married waymond. Then we also see that his life would've turned out great too in that alternate universe (he looked like a CEO or something). But thru fate or luck, their lives would cross paths anyway, and we get that heartfelt scene that reminisced on their marriage in the main universe.

[@Judymoe]

I like to think that eventually, Waymond's take-away from the 'it was beautiful!' part was, "yeah, but you're still sticking with me, no matter how beautiful that life was." I also like to think that's what she comes to believe.

[@koryeasterday5164]

This should be an annual rewatch for your channel!

[@ervingyang4511]

I'm Taiwanese,and this film really make me think of my mom and grandma

[@KnightingMikai]

38:52 It's so beautiful seeing all the other tapped verses experience harmony after shaking them up throughout the movie.

[@degov5]

The way this movie is the absolute definition of a Rollercoaster of emotions. You go from silly to heartwarming to ridiculous to badass to sad, then back to silly so quickly, and it's so well done.

[@DavidWright1138]

Steven (5 minutes into the movie): This feels like chaos. EEAAO: Hold my beer.
