Thank you for this. I can’t effectively put into words how much this positivity meant to me.

In the theater, I felt that this project is, more than any I’ve seen, the panacea to the poison in the world these days. I know that sounds bloated and dramatic, but imagine if people had opened themselves to this film the way we might have expected before the poison set in.

Kudos to Rob and John, the cast and crew, and everyone who put this into the world at this moment. They created a fun summer blockbuster, powered by a beautiful message, but not aggressively shouting that message, never forgetting to be a delightful, wonderful moviegoing experience first.

Your interview confirmed so much of the heart I felt from what I saw onscreen. Thank you. You just gave them room to be open about their process, and both of you have so much earnest enthusiasm for film and respect for your interview subjects.

I just really wanted to say thank you.

The two dudes who interviewed the director looks like an angry adult about the little mermaid
