We were... I, I asked Ed if, when he was doing press for that movie, if anybody ever said, "What about Bob?" [0:15](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=15) "Drove you to this?" Who directed that one? Bob? [0:19](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=19) Wait, is that Frank Oz? No. Somebody knows. Sorry. [0:23](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=23) One of the greatest films of all time and we don't know? That's comedy. [0:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=26) That's comedy. You gotta- I think it's Frank Oz, right? [0:31](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=31) Is it Frank Oz? Frank Oz. Of course, that was a test, everyone. [0:36](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=36) We can do better. This is such an interesting experience. [0:43](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=43) Yeah. Like, whatever is going on right now in this room- This is entirely scripted. [0:49](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=49) It's like waiting for an elevator. [0:53](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=53) We'll all get lubricated when- Should we all hide? ... when the gorgeous Spaniard comes in. [1:02](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=62) Oh, God. I think- Should we all hide? I will say this- She comes in and we all hide. Uh, I don't... Not... [1:05](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=65) Oh, God. I think- Should we all hide? I will say this- She comes in and we all hide. Uh, I don't... Not... [1:07](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=67) The, the longer I do this and the older I get, I think the less inclined I feel to talk about, to talk about films. Like, I don't, um... [1:18](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=78) I, I find myself... I... It could be... I will say, I think one of the, one of the many horrible things that social media has done to us is that it's, it's made this assumption that, like, we all wanna know everything about what goes on behind the curtain before we ever get to experience the magic. [1:37](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=97) And I think I'm so tired of seeing people in a makeup chair talking about how the sausage got made before I've ever... You know, like, I don't watch a lot of stuff now because of how in- invaded I've been with the process of how it was made and the extra credit that people seem to want for the, [2:01](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=121) whatever they perceive the difficulty of putting on makeup or- ... making a hard film. [2:08](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=128) I'm just like, "Give me a fucking break." [2:10](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=130) Like, like, like... And, but also just let me... [2:13](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=133) I think we all grew up just wanting to come in here and get, get taken away into the illusion. [2:22](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=142) And we are atomizing it. We're doing it to ourselves. [2:24](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=144) We're atomizing the, the capacity to have, you know, to... Suspension of, of disbelief. [2:34](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=154) Um, but I... But my caveat to that is I do think when we get actors together in a room, that's different. I feel like inside the bubble of those of us who are in the trade and do these things, there are things, especially in terms, like, the way she directed this film, [2:52](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/4R0afxTxntSo/en/how-social-media-spoils-the-magic-of-movies?t=172) that are very, very-
