If only I was willing to waste my time “researching” fossil fuels and the Mesozoic era to then anoint myself an expert in the field that’s do ‘doing my own research’. If only I was arrogant to think that these are such simple questions.

At what depths, and locations, are all types of fossil fuels found around the world?

What are all the locations and depths of dinosaur life that died ?

Calculate probability that, on some reasonable level, these remains formed hydrocarbon materials potentially used as fuel?

Super simple.

Not only that, it makes PERFECT sense through a comedic viewpoint. I’m not saying this is one of those “so bad it’s good” kind of comedies. I’m saying this was written as a comedy intentionally.

When mark whalberg grabs the wine glass, only to discover it is fake… he then plays with the glass for the rest of the scene, clearly under the realization that it is fake, but just before the scene ends, he goes in for a sniff, just to make sure. Lmao

The Happening.

I 100% believe it to be one of the most brilliant intentional comedies of all time. The twist is that this movie has hidden a deadpan comedy in plain sight, under the guise of being a thriller/horror. I’m not saying “this is so bad it’s good” either. I’m saying it is actually good and was meant to be a comedy.

I cannot recommend it though, purely because I know just how hated it is. If viewed strictly as a thriller/horror it all of a sudden becomes one of the worst train wrecks of a movie you’ll ever watch. I’ve probably seen it 20 times and laughed just as hard each and every time.

I also know that the few people I know who’ve watched it recently through the lens of a dark comedy, have agreed with me that it is actually genius comedic writing.
