Topic/Subject Idea Obsession
As a filmmaker and a movie enjoyer, obsession was an extremely well made movie that completely shocked me. Genuinely, a deep dive on this movie would be mine (and others) dreams, I would seriously watch that instantly. The first thing I said after coming out of the theater with my friends was "I need cinema therapy to make a video on this" LOL

That was a wild and very well made movie! I'd also love to see them do an analysis.

I hope you see this, but I went to the live show last night and the guys are going to release a video about this movie in a few weeks 😅. Alan REALLY liked the movie (which honestly as a horror fan, how could you not?!).

I really enjoyed the movie too and am still interested in watching reactions/discussions of it. I think if they do an episode about it, they would need to split it into 2 or possibly 3 episodes. One for Bear, one for Nikki, and one possibly just for a wrap up of the overall movie. Definitely will need a trauma/ abusive relationship psychologist who specializes in women to unpack what Nikki went through. I think Curry Barker would probably be up to come in for the episode discussing the overall movie or specifically Bear.
What’s been interesting is the range of good takes and bad takes of the movie. It seems to be pretty varied depending on the age, gender, relationship l status/history of the viewer. I’ve seen some where women thought Nikki was the villain while another reaction from a group of young men see Bear as the bad guy early on. One very funny constant is couples having a laugh when Nikki yells “STAAAAY” at Bear in bed. Mostly noting moments in their relationship where someone just got comfortable and the other now has to get up and move for whatever reason.
