      I think you’re right. Aside from screenshots showing it looks wrong, here’s the actual scene: https://youtu.be/yZszK_M_9_Y

      It’s not there, unless I’m missing it.

      A couple of comments are suggesting that, but I remember this scene and just assumed it was a weird still from the movie.

      I’m confused why someone would’ve recreated it, or modified part of it with AI, but it’s possible.

    As an 80s kid, hitting 40 was the best thing that ever happened to me. Shit that used to matter suddenly doesn’t, like you flipped a lightswitch. You get new superpowers, and they’re all bitchy. I recommend it to everyone.

      Or you can just smoke weed and drop acid in your 20s like I did, and get over a decade’s head start on not giving a fuck. By age 30 I was no longer worried about every single thing; the substances I took gave me some perspective about how little everything in my life matters in the grand scheme of things.

      Seriously, I’m 41 and over the last year I’ve slowed slipped into fuck it mode. Don’t get me wrong, I still have plenty of things I care about, but so many little things I’ve just stopped caring about and my life is so much more relaxed because of it. It’s amazing what hitting 40 can do to your mindset.

      Funny how everybody supports freedom of choice - but only for the right choices.

      Also wouldn’t posting a still from the movie without permission be “stealing”? Moral purity is so complicated now.

        Freedom of choice does not preclude you from being called out for making shitty choices dumb dumb.

        Posting a photo is not stealing, what dumb takes you have friend. Look up ‘fair use’ and that should help you understand that.

        Also, just, idk, what even is this argument? Choices can’t be made in a vacuum and choices can’t be forced on people are not antithetical to shitty choices being shitty choices.
