Gift Someone (Or Yourself) An RR Tee! https://shorturl.at/hekk2 Roxy Striar & Jon Maturan react to KPop Demon Hunters — the animated Netflix phenomenon that follows Rumi, Mira, and Zoey of HUNTR/X as they balance superstardom with secretly slaying demons, while facing off against Jinu and the Saja Boys plus the terrifying Gwi-Ma. The main voice cast includes Arden Cho as Rumi, May Hong as Mira, Ji-young Yoo as Zoey, Ahn Hyo-seop as Jinu, Byung Hun Lee as Gwi-Ma, Yunjin Kim as Celine, Ken Jeong as Bobby, Daniel Dae Kim as Healer, Liza Koshy as Host, and Joel Kim Booster in multiple roles. The movie just became even bigger after winning 2 Oscars at the 2026 Academy Awards: Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song for “Golden.” “Golden” also made history as the first K-pop song to win Best Original Song at the Oscars. The soundtrack has been a massive part of why this movie exploded, with the current biggest songs led by “Golden,” followed by “How It’s Done,” “Your Idol,” “Soda Pop,” “What It Sounds Like,” and “Takedown.” “Golden” spent 18 weeks at No. 1 on Billboard’s Global 200, while chart coverage has also highlighted the strong runs of “How It’s Done,” “Your Idol,” “Soda Pop,” “What It Sounds Like,” and “Takedown.” Follow Jon Maturan: https://www.instagram.com/jonmaturan/?hl=en Follow Roxy Striar YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@TheWhirlGirls Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/roxystriar/?hl=en Twitter: https://twitter.com/roxystriar Intense Suspense by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...

This week's videos are sponsored by Price Picks,
the easy-to-use fantasy sports betting app.
More on them in just a bit.
Okay, I can't wait any longer.
We got to watch K-pop David.
Is everybody ready, yeah, let's go.
All right, thank you so much to Prepper
for helping edit us down.
We really appreciate you guys.
You are not already.
Think about becoming a patron.
Patreon.com slash Real Rejects.
That's where you can sync up with your own copy.
That's where Greg and John cover stuff exclusively.
That's where you get discounts on our sick merch, RejectNation Shop.com.
This is our newest drop.
Yeah.
The Hore.
I don't know if that's a problem for this show.
Can't say it.
I don't know.
Listen, it is a pretty dope shirt.
Absolutely.
If you want more of a classic, a staple.
Yeah.
That's a great one as well.
I like the color on that.
Oh, thanks.
What do we call that?
Salmon.
It said solid desert pink.
Exactly.
Exactly, LJ.
That's what I was thinking.
Yep.
Another cool thing you get to do on Patreon is you get to ask us questions.
And with those questions, we do our reviews.
But before we get to those questions,
we like to talk a little bit about the,
just our initial feelings on coming right off of a movie,
especially a movie of this volume that everybody's been talking about for months.
Yeah.
Almost a year now at this point that it's been out for.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Because it's a 2025 release.
Yes.
So, LJ, hit me.
How'd you feel about K-pop demon hunters?
Wow, I am immensely surprised how much I enjoyed it because I didn't know the plot at all.
I just assumed it was K-pop singers fighting demons and that was it.
I didn't know about like the hybrid demon storyline with our main character Rumi.
I didn't know that there was going to be this redeeming quality to some demon.
I thought like demons were strictly like the villain, the bad guy, the, you know, all that stuff.
So ultimately, it was crazy that, oh, there it is, that I was like, I couldn't find it in Latin.
Find the scenes.
Little John is a little distracted right now.
No, yeah.
Oh, there it is.
No idea what the audience is right about.
Yeah.
Keep going, my dude.
No, yeah.
No, yeah.
And honestly, I, I, I, what I'm genuinely surprised the most, I, I, I, I, I, I, I'm genuinely
surprised the most.
was the allegorical commentary on like,
I guess not self-esteem, would you say?
Or like your past, your history,
whether it be bad or good,
kind of haunting you to a certain degree.
And that got me emotional.
I didn't, I got like a little bit moved where because
something
I forgot what the song was at the very end
about like your scars
you don't have to lie about it anymore or something
along those lines but that was moving
I didn't I didn't
again I didn't know anything about the movie so I didn't expect that
like I that's a really
deep
concept to like even dive into
into such a like a
again not children's but like
an animated movie that would
gear towards or lean towards a
child audience
or children audience,
or a younger audience,
I should say.
And so,
there's so many,
like,
there's this Japanese word.
Oh my gosh.
What,
I guess,
I think it's called,
Kaisen for self-improvement?
No,
Kaizen is,
constant improvement,
constant development.
It's Kitsugi or Kinsugi?
I think I'm getting it wrong.
Just tell us what is the...
It means that, like,
when every,
when you break,
like,
a China or,
And you can't put it back together.
You put it back together with gold because those cracks and it makes it more beautiful.
So your your broken self or whatever isn't a negative thing.
It's a positive thing, right?
Yeah, something along those lines.
I forgot with that.
That's beautiful though.
I get what you're saying.
Yeah, yeah.
It reminds me that kind of the whole plot of the movie kind of thing.
But yeah, I'm genuinely and thoroughly surprised how much I liked it.
I'm not saying I wasn't going to like it,
but how much more depth it had.
I knew it was a good movie from all the talk around it.
And it makes sense why it won two Oscars last night.
So yeah, how about you?
How'd you like it?
I feel so with you.
I think this movie just worked on so many levels.
And that's why I touched so many different kinds of audiences.
Like I knew when back of the day,
John and Greg,
big John and Greg did a reaction.
They went to go see this in the movie theater.
Oh, wow.
And they were like singing every lyric.
And Greg said he was like crying.
And they're so connected to the movie.
And then I was talking to my little cousin.
She was like, this is the greatest movie of the year.
And then Halloween, you see people that are our age.
You see people that are 20 years older than us.
You see people 20 years younger than us dressing as these characters.
I knew when it started to, when we started to see all that.
And not to mention people who were black, Asian, white, like, boys, girl, everywhere, everybody.
there didn't seem to be one type of audience member that loved this.
Yeah, yeah.
That it probably had something really special to it.
Absolutely.
And then, of course, seeing it win the two Oscars, all of that before we watched it,
I was like, I don't even think this could possibly be over-hyped for us because
I haven't talked to one person who was like, yeah, it was okay.
Yeah, true.
Like everybody was just like, no.
And now I get why.
It's because on all the different levels, right?
Like, the plot is really inspirational.
And I think that even at the end, when we see Zoe and Mira, start to face it.
their inner demons as they're coming forward.
It's not just Rumi.
It's not just the actual demons.
It's not just Genu.
It's every one of us has things that we wish we didn't do from our past or which didn't
happen to us from our past or that we feel shame about or that we overthink or that we
ruminate, which I don't think it's a surprise.
And her name is Rumi.
Rumi.
We're ruminating on.
And so I feel like those concepts and all of that, that really worked for me.
I also think it's always really smart when you have a movie where,
where it's like, who are you, are you roomy or are you mirror?
Oh, sure, yeah.
You relate to more.
Their vibes were very different.
Their aesthetics were very different.
Their upbrings were very different.
And so, like, at first I'm like, oh, I love Rumi, but then I was like, I'm a mirror.
I know myself for a mirror.
It's like, when you watch Friends or you watch Seinfeld or you watch any of these things
and you're like, who are you?
What character is you?
Yeah.
Right?
So it does that.
Then the songs aren't just like little puff piece songs.
Yes.
The songs, the lyrics are beautiful.
They're absolute bangers.
So it had just everything.
and then having the romance with Genu,
the sacrifice,
the elements of friendship and coming together
and supporting one another.
Talking about your secrets,
denial, lies,
like just everything that you could want
from a movie, this nailed,
just,
chef's kiss as good as I had hoped to have been.
Hell yeah.
Yes, yes.
I'm curious what the people at home
are wanting to know from the show.
So let's get to some of these Patreon questions.
Here we go, starting with Pierre the Reject.
Pierre says,
Hello, little John and Roxy.
Glad this movie won best animated feature
and it got me into K-pop.
Oh, that's cool.
That is cool.
What was your favorite songs in the movie
and what would you want in the sequel
which not be released
until 2029 or later?
Okay, damn.
I want to make it that long.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's something to live for, right?
Favorite song?
It's hard to not say Golden Avi.
Yeah, yeah. I was leaning towards that already.
From jump.
Yeah.
The voice is inside my head.
song at the end was really good as well.
It's interesting about Takedown because
while I love that song, they had
such qualms with that song. Yes, yes.
You know, they were like the hatred in this song
and I was like, oh, I hear you.
Like the vibe and the beat is so great, but
the lyrics aren't as inspirational as something
like Golden or voices inside my head.
And then I like the boy band songs too a lot.
Yeah, yeah, the Saja Boys songs.
No, I think, yeah, with Takedown,
agree with you but the the little
changes that Rumi made again it's not the full song
that kind of made it better but again we don't get to see that fully
realized because they never really sing it unless in the
third act of the movie but um favorite song has to be golden
right like it I or no I I would lean towards that last song
whatever it's called your voice is inside of my head
yeah it was so good
My little soda pop was fluff.
Yes, definitely.
Yeah, yeah.
Introduction to the Saja boys for sure.
But then we had the your idol song, the preaching to the choir, one of theirs.
That was really good and very demonic at the end.
You know, kind of reminded me of like no strings attached with their movements.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
In the beginning we had that song, Done, done, done, which they referenced a couple of times
that I really liked as well.
I honestly will listen to the soundtrack over and over, and I will watch this movie until
the day I die.
Yeah.
I watch it's 80 more.
I got to watch it again.
Before we get to more
Patreon questions,
I forgot that I promised you guys something.
Little John.
Yeah.
Our resident dancer.
Oh.
Okay.
We were grooving for the whole movie.
Yes, we were.
I need a little lesson.
School me for a second.
Okay.
Okay.
So for the people that don't know,
what's your dance background?
So I'm considered a B-Boy.
I've been breaking for,
23 years now since 03.
And does breaking K-pop go together ever? Is that like...
I don't know. That's a good question. I'm... This is kind of my full legitimate
introduction to K-pop. I mean, I know of the music, but I've never really...
I mean, I know of... What's their...
Blackbank? No. BTS.
Like, I'm aware of them. I've never really listened to their music. And no shade against them.
I just... I never lean towards that.
So with breaking... So there's a big breaking...
presence in Korea, in South Korea, for sure.
Cool.
They're arguably one of the best countries to represent, to be honest.
Was any of the dance moves in this breaking?
No, I didn't see any breaking.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't know enough to know.
No worries, no, yeah, yeah.
Anything like with our hands?
So that's the thing.
So breaking, for those who want to get really educated on this,
breaking is the, like the gymnastics-looking engagement on the floor, right?
It's like you're spinning on your head, your elbows, all that stuff.
It became an Olympic sport, man.
Yes, exactly.
So break dancing
I told us to tear it
I guess if we can share it with you guys
Break dancing is not our term
We actually
No no no no no no no you have nothing to apologize
He's a dancer
He's like I'm not a break dance
No no no no
So break dancing is a media term that they
They created and it was never our term right
So breaking is is are the term we use
And among
Among the hip hop street dance umbrella
There is breaking and there's something called popping
and so I'm not a popper.
That's like I was to think of the robot.
Okay.
That's what popping kind of is, right?
Like it's isolations of the muscles, whatever,
and you look like a robot or you're literally popping your,
so I'm not, I can't teach you a breaking move because of the room.
Okay, fine, fine, fine.
I can teach you a popping thing that I know.
Well, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, I'm, hey, I didn't think of it.
And then we're getting to your questions, but I needed to share the talent, the skill.
All right.
So this is something that I can do just for fun when I'm,
diving out like at a bar that has a dance floor.
Um, okay.
Clear the space.
No, you don't have to.
It's, it's really simple.
So, okay, it's, okay, I'm going to do it first.
And I'm pretty sure, I'm pretty sure you can, it's easy.
So it's kind of like an isolation.
So all you got to do is your, uh, hand on your chin.
And you give yourself like a double chin.
And then you push your chest out and it looks like you're going back.
Oh, okay.
So I protrude your chin out more so it could be easier.
Right.
So then push in.
and then push your chest.
Wait, chest in or out?
Chest in.
Oh, okay.
So, um,
do it?
No,
so push.
So,
so,
so,
so I don't know if you can see my profile.
Yeah.
So it's supposed to look like this,
in that,
and this and that,
and it's like a staircase
going downwards.
You can,
so when you do push
your chest down,
your,
your chin should stay where it was put.
Oh.
So yeah.
Kind of.
There you go. So yeah. So, yeah.
Okay, okay. Very cool.
Yeah, that's it. That's it. It's really quick.
If you're not trying at home, are you really living?
I know, there you go.
No shame. No shame. All right, here we go.
Let me start with something honest.
I'm not the most hardcore sports person in the world, believe it or not.
But I am hardcore about my love for my wife.
She's the reason I even discovered fantasy sports.
She and her friends play together.
And I wanted a way to join in without needing to know every stat sheet in existence.
That is actually how I discovered.
Price picks. Price picks is a daily fantasy sports app where you build lineups by picking more or less on player stat projections.
You pick two to six players and if your picks are right, you have the opportunity to cash in.
It's basically fantasy sports built around player stats instead of drafting entire teams.
So it feels way easier to jump onto, especially for someone like myself.
You can pick from tons of sports, basketball, baseball, hockey, UFC, golf, tennis, e-sports, and more.
Whatever those more are.
They have great features like the early payouts.
the stacks and flex play price picks they operate in all 50 states and that includes
california and withdraws are fast and secure so rejects you can download the price picks app today and
use code rejects to get $50 in lineup after you play your first $5 lineup that's code rejects to get
$50 in lineups after you play your first $5 lineup price fix it's good to be right uh little john
hit us with jdell jdell says hi john roxy in the movie the group's music is
literally part of how they fight evil.
Oh yeah, I guess I didn't really realize that.
Do you think the movie is saying that
performance and identity are forms of
power or that fame itself
can become a kind of weapon?
Both because it depends on what side you're on because we see the boy
band using fame as a weapon.
Right. And we see the girls using it to defeat
that. I think that's, you know, it's always
all powers can be used for good or evil.
All weapons can be used
for good or evil. Absolutely. Yeah.
uh the power of speech and the weapon of speech is one of those including singing and voice and also
this mm-hmm yeah damn that sure sure definitely 100% um so yeah performance and identity in general can be
our forms of power definitely um and like i could agree with what you're saying like um it could be used for good or
evil, just how you use it, right?
Or fame itself.
That's a little more on the nose and easier and obvious.
But yeah, I would say yes.
So yeah, go ahead.
Thomas Doherty, K-pop demon hunters, love this movie,
but I do wish it was a little longer,
and they show more of the history of the girls
becoming demon hunters, especially for Rumi and her guardian.
I just think it makes the climax hit a little harder.
Do you agree or disagree?
To have it a little longer.
So, I mean, in regards to having a history,
of their training montage or something or like them becoming i think we see that you know there's always
three but we don't know exactly like how these three were oh yeah came together and stuff yeah i think
that's what this person's saying for me personally i don't actually think it needed to be longer i feel like
especially if they're going to do a sequel we can kind of do flashbacks but as this movie is already
an hour 40 minutes and as it does cater to kids i just don't think that any of that backstory is necessary
in order to see this group if we were going to see more of anybody although i'll
I would have watched five hours of this, but if you're going to see more of anybody,
I am kind of curious about the demons that were not Genu.
Ah, yes, yeah, yeah, yeah.
How about y'all?
Right.
Like, what y'all do?
Romance and Abby and all them.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because you guys are just down for the cause.
Yes.
Yeah, we're going to take these girls out.
But there's also some flirty vibes going on, too.
So, I don't know, just, but I understand why they didn't say that here because
that would be a whole different movie, which is why I'm excited for a sequel.
Definitely.
No, yeah, I don't think it needed to be longer.
That would have been cool, but yeah, I don't, it doesn't need it.
It's almost like, I know this sounds cliche, but like it's perfect how it is.
Yeah, I agree.
I agree.
What are we got with Resonance?
Resonant says, glad to see another reaction to the movie.
I would say, I hope you to enjoy the movie.
Apparently, we did.
But I already know you did.
Okay.
The way the action in the fight scenes synced up with the music was just amazing.
question, which character do you feel closest resembles or resonates with you? Here we go.
Hope you two have a great rest of your day with the songs stuck in your head. But yeah, that's
happening for sure. Um, we're going up. Yeah. Uh, I actually, I feel conflicted about you. I could go
through all of the real rejects and tell you who I feel like. Oh, cool. I felt a little conflicted about
you. Because I think that you are a roomy Zoe Cross breed.
Okay.
How do you feel you are?
Hmm.
Hmm.
Good question.
Wait, how did you come?
I need to know your process.
I need to know your answer first.
Who I resonate or with your assessment?
Who you resonate.
Ah, damn it.
I don't know.
Um.
Damn.
That's a good question.
I leaned towards ironically,
Mira.
Huh.
Because I'm.
Oh.
I can see why you would think someone like Zoe
Because I'm
Wait, what was her issue again?
Or not her, not issue, but.
Less of an issue and more just like
She's had all these ideas,
but she didn't know that anybody would care about them until
Oh, right.
What she was talking about.
Oh, yeah.
And in the end when she's walking, she's like,
I'm too much or whatever.
Oh, sure.
The reason is because you've opened up on the channel before
about some of your things with yourself.
And for Roomy, I do feel like she felt like she had to kind of hide things inside before she opened up.
So that I felt like kind of resonated with some of the things that you've shared before.
Definitely.
But with Zoe, it's more her personality that I felt like.
Like, she's very bubbly and, like, brings a lot to the table.
And you're usually in a pretty good mood, too.
I hope so.
Yeah.
So I felt like you're kind of a mixture of the two of them.
Oh, that's so sweet.
Oh, thanks, Marcia.
That kind of...
I mean, I just...
Maybe because it was very...
No, yeah, that's a wrong assessment, I think.
I jumped to it because I have...
It seems like Mirra is a little more cynical
than all...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And sometimes I have my episodes of cynicism,
but...
But yeah, through your assessment,
I'd lean towards Zoe, mainly because...
I would say that for you if I had to pick one.
Yeah.
Because she was also...
Correct me wrong,
she was insecure about, like,
too much and being a people pleaser.
Right, that, exactly.
So, yeah, I would lean towards that.
And then Rumi having to deal with a lot of her, like, what she's hiding.
I'm not, I don't know if I was hiding anything.
But, like, I get it.
Yeah, Zoe, probably.
And also, it's weird because that's my ex-girlfriend's name.
Oh, that's so weird.
Pover for you.
I'm definitely a mirror.
Fair.
I feel like I have, everybody's got, like, little bits and pieces of other people.
Yeah.
I definitely come off when she was giving her monologue.
Like, before I met you guys, I felt like it was a weakness that I'm abrasive and aggressive and very blunt and say exactly what I mean.
And I'm definitely all of those things, but I do like that about myself.
Yeah, that's a good thing.
At this age, you know, I think when I was younger, I was just like, when I moved to L.A., I was like, why are people just not really like me here coming from Boston?
Oh, sure.
And then now I'm just like, I don't like you.
Yeah, whatever.
I like me.
Absolutely.
And I found people who do.
So, yeah, and I also think she's also still a good person.
person and she, while she was like trying to give Roomy the opportunity to come, you know,
she really was like clocking the situation.
She's like a good reader of people, which I think I am too.
She was coming on so strong that she was actually giving room for Rooney to open up.
Yeah.
And I've been definitely known to do that before.
Cool.
Oh yeah.
Okay, let's see.
Jaden Rhodes.
Jayden says, my question is, do y'all think this movie deserved the win for best animated
movie at the Oscars last night.
I really liked the movie, but I personally much preferred
Zootopia 2. I didn't see Zootopia 2.
Neither have I. I've only seen the first one.
It sounds like we have a reaction. There we go. And it just
released on Disney Plus, like I think
yesterday or something. So it's unfair for us
to answer this question, but what I will say is yes,
I think that this deserved best
animated movie. And I also think, just with the
story of
the actual
performers and the
people worked on this and their Oscar
run, and then how that displayed on
screen. It just, it was never going to go to Zootopia too. A lot of this is about like the campaign and
whether it should or shouldn't be. I would have been, it would be the biggest shock of the night if this
didn't win. No, I agree. Like it had so much momentum and it makes sense why it did now that I've
seen the movie. So like, um, was it deserved the win? Absolutely. Um, and I can only say that
mainly because this is one of the only nominees I've seen, I think. I don't remember, uh, whatever
the other nominees, I remember thinking like, oh, I haven't seen a lot of those.
So I would say it's deserving of it because it's actually very good.
But you don't know by comparison.
Yes.
Yeah.
There you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Final question coming from Jay Russian.
Jay Russian asked.
Question.
What's your favorite Asian food?
Great question.
We saw a lot of good looking food in here.
There was a lot of sushi being featured.
And I was like, oh, I love sushi.
And a lot of, yeah.
It's cool to get like a Korean cultural kind of exposure of a Korean food.
Because apparently a lot of cinema doesn't really show that.
So especially mainstream kind of movies like this.
Yeah, agreed.
And a lot of different types of Asian food that isn't just Korean.
Yeah, yeah.
They showed too.
I think that what's so difficult about this question, obviously,
is that you ask specifically Asian.
If you had asked Korean, I would have had a solid answer.
But for Asian food, I mean, like, how are we going to compare Korean to Chinese?
Yeah, that's hard.
Japanese to Indian to.
Like, there's just so many good.
Yeah.
But if you had to, had to pick.
one Asian food, what would it be?
Oh, man, that's tough.
Ironically, I would lean, because I'm a big carnivore meat eater, I'd probably lean towards
Korean barbecue, right?
Like, you get...
What's the food?
What's your...
Oh, um...
I get, that's the genre.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Right, right.
Bulgogi or, um, or what's it called?
You like the red meats.
Yeah, a lot of red meat for sure.
Yeah.
How about you?
What's your answer?
I don't think that this is a solid answer, but I will say that, like, if I could only pick one for the rest of my life.
Like, because sushi's too broad, right?
There's so much as a sushi.
So, like, I can't really say sushi.
Right.
Like, I think that my answer ultimately would be fried rice.
Right.
That's cool.
Yeah.
I like love fried rice.
Yeah, yeah.
Specifically pork fried rice.
Oh, cool.
I feel like I can eat pork right rice for every meal for the rest of my life and be happy.
I can't argue.
with you.
And you can put different veggies in it, different meats in it, whatever.
Have you ever had real KFC Korean Fried Chicken?
I don't know.
Yeah.
Where is it?
You can, you can, any, there's so many famous Korean fried food.
I've had a lot of Korean food, so probably.
Yeah, Korean fried chicken is like known for really crispy, really.
Like I also lean towards that.
Does it come in like wings form almost?
It can, yeah.
Yeah, definitely.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, there's just way too many to.
pick from but
absolutely.
Leave your
favorite Asian food
in the comments.
I appreciate you guys.
Anything else
that we got to tell
the people other
than the fact that
we'll be back in
2029 or later
to cover
K-K-K-KVen-E
X too?
I can't wait
to re-watch this
and really dissect it
more.
But yeah,
I hope you guys
took a lot from
the movie because
it's actually
pretty deep
psychological kind of
reflection.
I agree.
It's pretty cool.
But yeah,
I enjoyed it.
I agree.
I hope that
Gino is
still alive.
Oh, and that he's like in the sequel and stuff?
Yeah, I do.
Because I want a Gino,
roomy romance.
Fair.
I think that that's...
Did you feel like a lot of...
Did you ever watch a Lala Land?
Yeah.
Did you ever feel like there was like...
Omages to it?
That's interesting when the two of them
were dancing up and just or whatever.
Yeah, I could see exactly what you're saying.
Yeah.
I really was focused on the Josie and the PussyCats element of this,
which is not as deep of a movie,
if I'm just being honest.
Yeah, yeah.
But it is as fun.
Like it's got that.
Right.
But yeah, I could see the La La Land elements.
It has a lot of borrowed from different things, even the mirror mirror on the wall.
Yes, that's true.
It did reference a lot.
It was very self-aware.
Yeah, excellent.
I'm going to not only just rewatch the movie, but I'm going to rewatch our reaction.
I'm going to listen to the soundtrack on my way home.
I'm going to do all the things.
And I'm going to be back here with Liljohn in 2029 or later for the sequel.
We'll see you guys there.
Later, Rejects.
Stay golden.
