In a world where suicidal compulsion spreads like plague, science teacher Elliott (Mark Wahlberg) must figure out what is going on and save those who are counting on him in this riotous laugh out loud comedy from divisive director M. Night Shyamalan. Joe invites Jef Burnham back to the show to discuss this misunderstood gem. They get into how the film is meant to be watched, good ideas with odd executions, legitimately creepy moments, friends who track friends’ progress in books they’re reading, the rules of the happening, spoilers, first viewings, fun movies to see with an audience, weird tonal shifts, coping with tragedy through humor, the bad rap of hot dogs, scientific theory, how to make the movie function as a traditional horror film, inappropriate mood ring instructions, the plight of writing characters with the same first initial, and horrible news-based exposition.
