| 0:10.2 | My name is Ben Pearson. I'm an editor at slashfilm.com, and I'm joined yeah. All right, BJ, you had a chance to see the first 30 minutes of this movie early, |
| 0:24.5 | and I remember us talking about that on the podcast. |
| 0:26.8 | So I know that you enjoyed that. |
| 0:28.8 | So I have a sense of sort of how you were feeling about this movie. |

| 1:33.2 | So, yeah, I think that it'll probably end up being worthy of being one of the biggest movies of the year. |
| 1:41.3 | All right, BJ. Same question to you. What do you think? |
