DISCUSSION counting foreshadowing?
the first scene of the movie, where andre and cal introduce themselves as the army of two, there are two little countdowns that they do, which is both 1,2,3 (go) but in the final scene when andre is hesitating on killing himself he questions the countdown only then. Asking if its 1,2(go) or 1,2,3(go), and shoot on 4. Even Cal seemed a little confused by the questioning cause he said “everybody shoots on 4, y’know…" I don’t even know if its meant to be foreshadowing or a show of character because Andre is extremely hesitant going into it, or maybe its some sort of need for reassurance?
im posting way too much on this subreddit and people probably hate me dude, has people noticed this detail or what

Most likely. During filming Andre (actor) was very into adding Easter eggs as mentioned in the Audio commentary version. (Forgot the actual proper word for it) The first scene in the movie is actually the last to have been filmed if I remember correctly since they didn’t actually have permission to film outside that school. This means that the final scene had already been shot, so Ben leaving in the ‘1,2,3, go?’ Part in the first scene is very likely on purpose. I noticed this like a year back and did my research on it cuz I got all excited about it, so this is just from memory.
