No it isn't. It's reddit tier "lol so random" put to the screen, with the mandatory obnoxious girlboss protagonist for the modern audience. And it comes with a bonus obnoxious girlboss as the antagonist. The only redeeming thing about it was that it wasn't a sequel or a remake.
I mean, the randomness wasn't for random's sake. It wasn't like a "holds up spork" shit at the wall willy nilly. There was purpose behind most of the "random" bits, if not for meaning then for at least setup/punchline.
I'm not sure what was obnoxious about either the protag or the antag. They were pretty standard.
Yeah, especially the part with the half naked dudes trying to OH SO RANDOM ram their asses on the giant dildo. That was really awesome.
Fuck that idiotic movie. And no, that wasn't the only thing I found eye-rollingly cringeworthy, it was just the most memorable. Or the (SPOILERS!) everything bagel. So quirky!
That it was based on a total misunderstanding of statistics was actually the least of its problems.
I think you're confusing silly with random. Yes, it was silly, but there was leadup to that, particularly in the display of the trophy early on which was a knock on auditors.
The bagel, I'll give you as a bit too much, and a bit of a blow, but the movie isn't about the silliness. It's about the emotional connection of the characters, which I found to be well done
The whole fucking point was randomness, and random chance, and using random improbable events (except that once they become intentional they cease to be improbable; fucking idiot "I love science!" writers) to hop between universes. So yes, it was explicitly chosen because RANDOM. And simply foreshadowing it doesn't make it good or entertaining.
Was there emotional connection between the characters? I suppose, once you get past them blaming each other for all of their problems, and seeing all of the realities where they're better off if they'd never gotten together. But you can have close connection between characters without an idiotic premise and Whedon-tier Millennial dialogue while completely misusing Michelle Yeoh.
I don't remember any of the Best Picture winners from the last decade or so except Moonlight, which I'm pretty sure was the BLM year.
Everything Everywhere All at Once (a few years back) is fantastic

Is the gay scene actually in the movie? And it was shown in theaters?
