Everything Everywhere All At Once First Time Watching

[@bentleyhunter9370]

In another life, I would have really liked just watching you guys react to laundry and taxes.

[@k3n12ock]

PIN THIS!

[@Elnis888]

Thanks, man - you just made me, a grown man, cry ... and NO ONE wants to see a grown man cry!

[@jbearclowater]

This movie was a key catalyst in restarting Ke Huy Quan's career, also earning him a well deserved Oscar for his performance, and for that, I will always be eternally grateful to this movie.

[@fuzzyotterpaws4395]

I only know Ke Huy Quan because of Loki and I saw this movie recently so I definitely get Loki vibes because of the time travel stuff but he's actually a great actor!

[@thesamwilder]

My little brother worked as a music editor on this, his first project in Hollywood, so it holds a special place in my heart.. glad I got to enjoy it again with you guys!

[@electronash]

Luke !

[@GabaGhoul10]

A movie in which a man jumps ass-open onto a butt plug trophy in order to access an alternate universe where he can achieve an even higher level of martial arts won Best Picture from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. We were truly in the best timeline then.

[@MiqelDotCom]

Literally a real miracle!

[@deadpolymers3416]

Adam absolutely nailed it with the suicide storyline. I've thought the same from the very first time I watched the movie. Most people focus on the acceptance of family and whatnot, but the story is about overcoming depression. Joy says the following lines in the movie... "it's all just a pointless, swirling bucket of horsesh!t" “I'm Tired. I Don't Want To Hurt Anymore And For Some Reason When I'm With You, It Just Hurts The Both Of Us.” “Do You Know Why I Actually Built The Bagel? It Wasn't To Destroy Everything. It Was To Destroy Myself.” “Why Not Go Somewhere Where Your Daughter Is More Than Just This?” "You're feeling a good thing, you got your hopes up. I'm here to save you some time. Eventually, that all just goes away."

[@KBRoller]

There are many layered themes in this film. I find that people who haven't experienced suicidal thoughts tend to miss it in this movie... which is astounding to me, because it seems so explicit about those themes.

[@evienicks]

I think most people end up discussing the philosophical underpinnings of the depression-in this case, nihilism-since the movie is so clearly a movie of ideas, but it's also just as clearly an emotional family melodrama. You are right that talking explicitly about the suicidality matters a lot!

[@mitchellhp]

Yes! I’d been in the middle of one of my depressed moods for a while when I saw this. Everything about Joy/Jobu’s story hit me so hard, and I was basically sobbing the whole movie. I love watching analyses & reactions for this movie b/c every person gives me new insight into it. Hoping to one day to be able my nihilsm from Jobu’s “nothing matters so I don’t matter” to Waymond’s “if nothing matters, then every possibility is available.” Still working on that

[@quicksandbuddy]

This movie came out a little bit before Multiverse of Madness and just completely blew that depiction of the multiverse out of the water

[@Grandtheatrix]

MoM didn't hold a candle to this. Not close. Not in the same ballpark, not in the same state, barely playing the same game.

[@fuzzyotterpaws4395]

I only saw the Dr. Strange movie and just saw this a couple weeks ago

[@newkidman101]

Holy shit gang!! Sponsored by Darington Press, couldn’t be more deserved!

[@Cerridwen7777]

Also, Stephani Hsu was ROBBED. She 100% deserved that supporting oscar.

[@fusionaddict]

Yeah, but so did Jamie Lee Curtis.

[@MsJoniGibson]

I totally agree. She was transcendent in this.

[@quicksandbuddy]

This was instantly a top 5 movie for me when I saw it in theaters. The whole audience was sobbing for the entire third act

[@KBRoller]

Every time I hear Waymond give his "we have to be kind" speech, through to the end of the movie, no matter how many times I've seen it... I'm a blubbering mess.

[@ubersc00ber]

Radar... lmao His name was Data. This movie is an instant classic for me. It shoved its way into my top 10 of all time. Never have I cried so hard laughing and because I'm an emotional mess.

[@Nekotaku_TV]

Yeah I was like who the hell is Radar?

[@fuzzyotterpaws4395]

I only know Ke Huy Quan because of Loki and I saw this movie recently so I definitely get Loki vibes because of the time travel stuff but he's actually a great actor!

[@thatepicwizardguy]

It's SUCH a brilliant movie. I definitely cried too, but also was just incredibly blown away by the artistry, creativity and storytelling. Absolutely wild stuff, there's nothing really like it.

[@mitchelsmith5643]

I haven’t been this excited for a sponsorship for ya boys since Raid sponsored you! Congrats, ya big boy KZbinrs!!!

[@sydney4087]

Both of you are such good men. Please keep being who you are as long as you can, because after the last couple weeks, it’s things like this that make me tremendously grateful and somewhat hopeful. 💜💜

[@medianguy4909]

Watching this movie with my religious mother in an empty theater was free family therapy.

[@jrod112278]

Shocked you're just now watching this one. My favorite film of 2022 EDIT: I forgot what they said before hand. I apologize lol.

[@Knightowl1980]

They watched it when it came out. They’re just uploading it now

[@fuzzyotterpaws4395]

I thought it was a brand new reaction. I myself only saw it the first time a couple weeks ago

[@k3n12ock]

Also, Jay and Adam, I am super grateful that you guys have been posting more movie reactions

[@Drakoni23]

42:51 I've cried with you guys before on reacts, going through the emotions of the film or show again... I... really needed to hear that today. That got me, more than the movie react did (because this film always gets me). Thank you

[@whitneyshoeston]

One of my favorite parts about this movie is that Randy Newman voiced the racoon. The song they are singing the first time you see them is an actual song that Randy Newman wrote for this movie. Its fantastic.

[@Denashi]

Never in my life did think I would cry over two rocks sitting in a desert... until I watched this insane masterpiece of a movie! It is just ridiculous how well put together it is! Thanks for making me cry over it, once again! 😭

[@austinpena5605]

Message of the film and life: Nothing matters, therefore everything matters.

[@fromkieran]

finally, this was easily one of the best cinematic experiences I have ever had

[@TheJuringramen]

So proud of you for your sponsorship!

[@veltzon4322]

I am so glad I was right in my comment on the community post from just the thumbnail alone. Jay having an inner crisis and Adam finding joy in the absurdity of it all

[@hawkthorn33]

How do you pitch this movie to be green lit? Then it goes and just works, We were all laughing at two rocks, texting? speaking? communicating. How the hell do you pull that off. The amount of brain power and vision that went into this movie is staggering.

[@MattAlgren]

And they were really riding that line. With a concept like this, just one small step away from absurdity or closer to absurdity would have made it a complete failure of a film. They got it exactly right.

[@TheRevRen27]

42:46 Think you might have just pulled me out of my downward spiral, Adam. Thank you for this 🙏🏽

[@Cerridwen7777]

I love this movie so much. As someone with strained family relationships, and a verrry long history depression, it punched me right in the gut, and changed my perspective on a lot of things. I still cry every time I see it lol. You asked where you know the actress who plays Joy from, my guess is from Shang Chi. She played the friend that Shawn and Katie are at the bar with. And one of the butt-plug warriors played the masked master who trained Shawn.

[@Taramoor]

The visual symbolism in this movie is so on point. Everything from Evelyn's hair gradually getting more and more put together to the googly-eyes being the inverted form of the bagel. There is so much here that is so well put together. It deserved every oscar it got and a few more besides.

[@profoundclarity8497]

watched this late at night alone...cried like a baby ans immediately became one of my top 10 favorite movies...the emotional highs hit hard...the underlying story of family ....the song in the stairwell when the mom accepts loving jamie lee curtis is a song i fall asleep to now....this movie is a masterpiece...

[@mattao666]

In a world where I can never justify an overall personal top 10 films of all time because genres and eras have such an effect on what a good movie is, this movie made me change my mind. Its damn near perfect.

[@BuzzedAndTanked]

@33:30 - that's a speech a lot of needed to hear for the first time. The way I bawled the first time I heard that... I'm so glad to see someone else get hit out of nowhere in the feels!

[@wtimmins]

The over the top absurdity somehow makes the serious deep emotions work better. It's amazing.

[@1938superman]

43:08 You and me both, Adam. I'm still on the coming back around part. I did cry though too. A lot.

[@fuzzyotterpaws4395]

I only know Ke Huy Quan because of Loki and I saw this movie recently so I definitely get Loki vibes because of the time travel stuff but he's actually a great actor!

[@xBenjiSx]

I'm so glad I was able to watch this again with you. I adore this movie. One of the most amazing pieces of storytelling I've witnessed. Keep rocking J&A

[@ela.evigilant]

I absolutely love this movie. This movie is addressing nihilism, cynicism, existentialism, and absurdism. That our lives are ultimately futile and without higher purpose. However, knowing that nothing matters should be the ultimate relief - the peace you learn should be that if life is meaningless, then you are absolutely free to create meaning. Embrace the uncertainty, rebel against the cynics. It doesn't matter why. You're here now and you don't have to justify it to anyone or any higher 'power'. It doesn't matter, the results are always the same. So that if nothing you do matters then the only thing that matters is what you do. That the meaning of life is to give life meaning. Everything is made up and the points don't matter.

[@DocteurNS]

OMG!! I absolutely *loved* this movie. I can't think of any other film that made me laugh and cry so much simultaneously. That scene at the end when she runs with the guy on her shoulders had me bawling and in hysterics at the same time. I didn't know what to feel. This entire movie is a masterpiece.

[@1938superman]

This movie is one of the bravest filmmaking experiments I've ever seen about love and relationships. Especially in its ability to take the ridiculous and make it so incredibly serious and important.

[@fromkieran]

the music made this movie what it was, absolutely phenomenal production and it elevates each scene beyond the story being told. this movie is something else

[@benjamminwright]

Not sure if Im more excited for the EEAAO reaction or that you guys were sponsored by Darrington Press! So cool!

[@JekyViews]

Makes you feel all the feelings. And Waymond is a treasure and must be protected.

[@BobaFettsCousin]

You two are awesome! :) I stumbled onto this channel when the Mandalorian S2 Finale came out and every video I've watched since has left me either laughing or in tears (or in both). You guys never shy from the feels, and the laughs are contagious. Keep it going and wish you the best!

[@Ravenpoe121]

The very first time I watched this movie, I was both laughing and ugly crying at the exact same time. Just full on snot bubble crying while also laughing out loud.

[@popcornhistory8344]

Darrington Press spot! The look on Adam's face is pure "yep, this is happening!'

[@MuppetAdventure]

CONGRATS ON THE SPONSOR!! This is amazing!!!!!!

[@Seankichu]

~ In another life, I would have really liked just doing laundry and taxes with you ~

[@greghaus]

I've been wanting you guys to watch this film since it was first released. It is one of my all time favorite movies now, and easily my favorite of the past 10 years. 💜 My first time reaction was similar to Jay's and I still cry every time I see it, even during this reaction.

[@Timmayytoo]

An absolutely phenomenal film... I cried multiple times in the theater the first time I saw it. Easily in my top 5 favorites all time. Just a reminder... Academy Awards for: Best Picture Best Directing Best Editing Best Original Screenplay Best Actor - Ke Huy Quan Best Actress - Michelle Yeoh Best Supporting Actress - Jamie Lee Curtis And is currently considered the most awarded film of all time.

[@dashkatae]

You might want to rephrase your last statement cause it makes it seem like you're talking about just the Academy Awards which it won 7 and not for the entire industry of awards.

[@axr7149]

Here is a unique fun fact: When you count just the major, "above-the-line" categories (screenplay, acting, directing, and picture), this film holds the record for most wins across these specific categories EVER (6 of its 7 wins are in these specific categories, with Editing being the only technical win). An argument could be made for GOING MY WAY (1944) tying this record as well, although one of its wins was in the now discontinued category of Best Story. It is also one of only 3 movies to win 3 acting Oscars (after A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE (1951) and NETWORK (1976)) but the only one of the bunch to also win Picture. Interestingly, all 3 movies won Actress and Supporting Actress.

[@ervicito77]

This movie is so damn fantastic! And this movie made me bawl like a baby. Coming out to my family was really tough. There were times when I wanted to take my own life growing up because I wasn't good enough. I found love within myself in order to bring peace into my life, and this movie awakened that. I love this film! Honestly, I hadn't cried that much watching a movie since Coco. And yes, I love you guys too, Jay and Adam! 💖

[@glacieractivity]

This is the movie reminding me about the importance of owning an LP of good music instead of letting US venture capitalists decide when I can enjoy some good music on a CD without US venture capitalists telling me "no". Physical media is awesome and my parents were right.

[@jasonmarbach]

I already watched this on patreon back when it dropped, but it remains my favorite reaction y’all have ever done so you already know I’m gonna sit here and sob watching it all over again

[@GoodEyeSniper74]

As a movie buff, it's rare these days to find something that makes me FEEL something like this movie did. An absolute masterpiece, and one of the best movies I've ever seen in my life. Utterly insane, and perhaps off-puttingly so to some people. For me, it works perfectly.

[@cameronblakemore3390]

I’ve never laughed so hard or cried so hard at a movie - at the same time!

[@Gotham_Moon]

Same!

[@DanielPerez-jz8jk]

Adam cries with he-man and Jay cries with people ^_^

[@TriXJester]

This movie is such a good representation of the two sides of existensialism, Positive Existensialism vs Negative Existensialism

[@fuzzyotterpaws4395]

I actually just watched this for the first time about a month ago and really liked it! Ke Huy Quan from Loki was great

[@dhararookstool3988]

I asked about this awhile back and I’m soooooo happy you’re reacting to this ❤️❤️ love ya guys

[@TinyKrisGaming]

I said the same thing to my partner about Ke Huy Quan. Hes exactly how'd you imagine he would look grown up. and hes such a badass action star! I love that hes making movies again.

[@wavy6617]

Beautiful reaction, so glad you're sharing it with us!

[@cameronblakemore3390]

Awesome that y’all reviewed this one - it’s my all-time favorite movie. Just hands down some of the best acting I’ve seen

[@sweatyjester]

"This movie fucking rules, man" Never a truer word has been spoken, Jay.

[@Bringmethehorizondude]

Called it. This one won best picture.

[@KBRoller]

It won almost every award... as it should!

[@paulitik7]

Might be my favorite movie of all time. It’s also the most accurate representation of what it’s like to have attention deficit disorder that I’ve ever seen.

[@jasonmarbach]

So proud of our (sponsored) good good content boys 🥹

[@johannacaulfield7840]

I was literally JUST thinking how a reaction for this from you guys would be amazing.

[@ec9121]

The planets crashing into each other really just finished me and made me go into a full blown cry. I can't watch this movie after my mom passed away.

[@shiitakehappens6194]

Yas! This must be one of the better universes since we’re getting this reaction on a Friday night.

[@waka1834]

Wow i cant believe you guys havent seen this on the channel yet, i love this movie so much so im so glad to see this on your channel its the perfect mushy action excitement that i love to see you guys get thrown into.

[@hsmorg3640]

Damnit, Jay's making my eyes sweat again!

[@owencahill4427]

Wow what a pleasant surprise! So happy to see you guys do this special movie

[@Rutabaga64]

Definitely the best movie of 2022 and I was thrilled that it won so many Oscars since I thought it might be too “out there” for the Academy. I’m also so grateful that it led to the resurgence of Ke Huy Quan. ❤❤❤❤

[@MyInitialsAreCBD]

"The Daughter. What do I know her from?" Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Shang-Chi, Be More Chill or Joy Ride, mayhaps? Unrelated: stunt direction was done by the 'award sitters,' one of whom was Death Dealer in Shang-Chi.

[@thefreedommovement]

I think everyone got something different from this movie. Personally it was really great at capturing how much my momma and I love each other, but fight constantly. We couldn’t live without each other, even if it’s hard sometimes. And, because I suffer from depression, the part where waymond says that looking for the positive is how he “fights” really struck a cord with me. The worst stuff that could ever happen to me already happened… I’m not scared of anything… but the constant sadness is crippling. So the biggest fight I have IS thinking positively.

[@sosaysjayrod]

Love you guys, amazing reaction as always.

[@wtimmins]

I saw this for the first time on an airplane on my phone. I had no idea how terrible an environment that would be, as I'm trying not to sob openly in front of a bunch of other passengers and my son...

[@KBRoller]

Weird, I don't know why KZbin deleted my comment... I'll try reposting it. This is my favorite live-action movie of all time, and as usual, I'm a mix of Adam and Jay. I also cry every time I see it, especially when Waymond gives his "we have to be kind, especially when we don't know what's going on" speech. This should never have worked, on paper, but the execution is so damn good that it just *does.* It's the closest thing I've ever seen to a perfect film. As someone else said, this isn't an example of Chekov's gun, it's an example of Chekov's entire Texas wedding. And the themes and symbolism work on so many levels! All the parallels and contrasts... The bagel symbolizes nihilism, while Evelyn symbolizes existentialism. But also, the bagel symbolizes depression, with Joy/Jobu being suicidal -- Adam definitely nailed that. Remember the line "it destroys more than just light and matter"? And then later, Jobu says she made the bagel "to destroy myself." The bagel was made to destroy Joy... to destroy joy. It *is* depression made concrete. And then of course you've got Joy's depression paralleling Evelyn's anxiety/ADHD (the writers said she was meant to have ADHD, confirmed). You've got the contrast between Evelyn being the cynical protagonist, but Waymond being the empathetic hero who actually saves the day. The parallel between generational trauma between Evelyn and Gong Gong, and then between Evelyn and Joy. In one universe, Evelyn and Diedre are enemies, but in another, they're lovers, two sides of the same coin when you learn to "fight with kindness". Everything matters because nothing does. Literally everything is so perfectly crafted about this. My only complaint is that Jamie Lee Curtis won the award for best supporting actress. She's great, don't get me wrong, but Stephanie Hsu was absolutely robbed of that. My favorite animated films are the Spider-Verse series, and I could always ask for more of those. But EEAAO? It's a one-and-done, I don't want or need a sequel, it's as perfect as-is as it could be. A sequel would *only* diminish its importance.

[@dallas304life]

Even your worst self has nothing but potential this movie is so good!

[@dropkgirl7157]

such an empathetic, humane story. this is why movies are important

[@DrFunkenstein101]

Ok, I have not laughed harder at anything Jay has said as much as when he told Adam his power would be being the exact same in every universe. That line did not get the reaction it deserved, bravo. I am still laughing.

[@damonhowell6292]

I love how this movie moved Jay

[@jonrazo7912]

I saw this movie on a heroic dose of shrooms, I'm pretty sure *I* was experiencing multiple branching realties.

[@sonicboomkj]

*Smokey from Friday voice* EEAAO, yeah Jay going to cry in the studio!!!

[@mitchellhp]

Omg, one of my favorite movies! I was blubbering through at least half of it in the theater when I first saw it lol

[@gpcheng87]

4:35 expressions immediately gave me Sherlock (A) and Watson (J) vibes🔍😅

[@FrolleinMiez]

Exactly what I needed! Thanks guys. ❤

[@lafatte24]

Can't believe this is the first time you guys are reacting to this????

[@NicholasMackin-gp4ut]

My favorite film of all time, it saved my life and so happy you’re experiencing it. Also, if you guys wanna be wrecked, how about you watch my favorite movie of the year The Wild Robot

[@spanishfalcon]

IM SO EXCITED TO WATCH THIS WITH YOU!!!!!

[@YodaMan-420]

"Radar from Goonies" ow, my memories.

[@ImekaSF]

Excited for this - one of my all time favorite films!

[@stancinatti8198]

When I say the type I said of jay is COOOOOKED but this movie is so good Michelle yeoh and Stephanie tsu killed it and the message was so real 😭 in the grand scheme we don’t matter but by realize that we do

[@Luna-zw6te]

Favorite movie of all time!!

[@AmazingChi]

Has any pReview'd vid ever had *two* costume changes for the guys before, with the promo and the intro, and then the actual reaction?

[@polterkat]

Jay looks different in the time-jump, sure... but I think he looks HAPPIER now 😊 and that's the only thing that really matters. Also... WOO! first comment! 😅

[@polterkat]

I don't wanna hog the comments but two more things I have to say about this film: 1. I will never stop laughing at the fact that the editor for this film won an Oscar... and in his acceptance speech, the first thing he said was "Hey! Thanks!... This is crazy... This is only my second film!" 🤦‍♂🤦‍♂🤦‍♂ like, dude... stfu if you wanna make it outta that building alive 🤣🤣🤣 2. The last real solid laugh I got out of my father before he passed was describing the scene with Jenny Slate using her dog as nunchucks. Idk why that in particular cracked him up so much but I can't watch this film without remembering that. Such a silly ridiculous thing. But given the subject matter of the film + the kind of humor my father enjoyed, it somehow feels appropriate

[@natureboy95]

here I was on a kick watching and rewatching reactions to this movie, what excellent timing! And an easy go to answer when people ask, "what's your favorite movie?" :p It's mad, it's amazing, it's a masterpiece :)

[@eliasfitzgerald1786]

This movie means so much.

[@wtimmins]

A BRILLIANT examination and dissection of nihilism.

[@k3n12ock]

OH YEAH, Ive def seen this reaction. Swear it was a premiere or a live reaction that was on here.

[@Nekotaku_TV]

After this movie I sat down in front of my open balcony door to meditate and cry... Who's Radar haha? The p**** c** part is the hardest to watch scene in any movie I've seen (I don't watch horror).

[@Garrett-w5z]

Great film, one of the most nihilistic endings I've ever seen but what a fantastic piece of esoteric entertainment

[@maizysincestarling8679]

Jay having me bawling all over again. lol
