Think about ''The Call'' and how many polygons they have made just for the hand shot alone and how high res the 3d Models were. Every time I see The Call my eyes tear up a little just by the grandness and epicness of the whole project. Mad respect for the animators not only for The Call but overall
I'm glad you said that's a wallpaper shot, you're the only reactor so far that I have seen look at that shot of Camille and Jhin in that way. It's immense!
You was wondering what's the song in Awaken - it's Riot's song (ft. Valerie Broussard). They make most of their music themselves, there's a running joke that they're a music company that somehow doing games.
These cinematics only get better and more hype if you know the lore behind them, not all of them are lore focused or lore based but a lot of them have heavy lore implications, like why certain characters are fighting and what for. A great example of a trailer with a lot of lore behind it was the one with Ryze, talking about power and being able to let it go, and Awaken, all the fights between the characters have quite a bit of lore behind them. As a retired league player I can still say the lore behind Runeterra is great and if you have the time I'd highly recommend looking into the lore of any characters that caught your eye.
Arcane is very good, and I think it's actually better the less you know about the characters. Riot Games/League of Legends have produced a lot of great cinematics, as you saw. Their music videos are also very good. Thanks for the reactions.
yeah, it's better if you don't know about the characters because when you realize that some of the most boring characters backgrounds were chosen to be depicted first.
For 25:50 , he can't technically just make a sword out of thin air, that is specifically the sword of the guy he was fighting against. Other people have talked about Sylas and his magical ability to absorb people's magic to use against themselves, so I won't explain any further, but you can see Sylas absorbing a yellow glow into his gauntlets earlier. Garen doesn't have magical abilities, but he does have a very close relationship to the Aspect (God who takes over a humanoid) of Justice. His ultimate ability sees him kneeling down and praying to the Aspect of Justice, and she answers his call by sending down a giant sword of radiant light (see A Twist of Fate when he's fighting the redhead who loves to teleport/blink). Sylas stole the radiant blade to use as his own. Had Sylas taken magic from the blonde girl, he would have been able to shoot a beam of pure light at his enemies, so it's kind of just a coincidence he summons a sword in the cinematic right before Viego does. Viego, also known as The Ruined King, does however have the ability to summon his blade and dismiss it away at will. I won't deny that one. The two cool af gun people, Lucian and Senna, are Sentinels of Light. They drive back the souls of the dead that Viego controls. That year (2021) had a whole series of cinematics dedicated to The Ruination and the Sentinels of Light event. The Call is my favourite cinematic for League (bias because Sejuani, the girl on the giant boar, is my favourite character in the game. She's the leader of The Winter's Claw, one of the biggest tribes and the tribe that values the older ways of survival, raiding other tribes, even hitting other regions of the world. Very Nordic-inspired people), and it's based on the lore for the world (though people are still not fully sure what the spartan part is from in the lore). The polar bear people are actually shamans and tribespeople who have given themselves to The Volibear (Primal God, giant bear in the sky during the lightning scene), they were corrupted and turned into animalistic monstrosities in exchange for terrifying powers. Sejuani is going to them because they have an artifact from a different Primal God (the one forging the sword, Ornn), and this artifact supposedly keeps you fed for a long time. Sejuani's people are starving, so she's leading a desperate quest for the artifact so they can survive another year. I've watched the cinematic probably 25-50 times between me watching it iself and me watching reactions to it, and every single time I still get goosebumps when Sejuani looks up to a literal Prima God and screams at them. The purple girl (Kai'Sa) is helping the earthbender (Taliyah) travel through the desert with her tribe. In the lore Kai'Sa was lost to something called The Void for most of her life, she finally made her way back and now fights against other creatures who come through The Void to attack the world. Taliyah and Kai'Sa became really good friends as they helped each otherwith their goals, which is why Tal is so sad when she realizes Kai'Sa is about to jump back into The Void to keep the giant monster (Rek'Sai, the smaller ones are her children, the Xer'Sai) from killing more of Taliyah's tribe. Tal has to trap her friend back into The Void, a place that traumatised Kai'Sa enough that she made it her life's goal to keep anyone else from meeting the same fate as her. The Spartan is a former Aspect of War named Atreus (in game he's only known as Pantheon), at this point in the story he is no longer possessed by The Pantheon because Pantheon was killed (weird story where Pantheon possessed Atreus and fought a corrupted god-warrior/Darkin, the Darkin stabbed Pantheon's host, but instead of it killing Atreus it killed Pantheon). The scar on his body is what was left from that fight. Atreus hates the Gods who take over people to turn into Aspects (Pantheon was the worst of the bunch because they didn't release control once they took it, the others seem to only push their humans to do certain things when needed). He climbs up Mount Targon, home of the Gods and Aspects, but finds that the portal to Targon Prime open (when the gods see someone climb up Mount Targon, there is a chance that the Gods allow them entry to Targon Prime, they usually become an Aspect at this). He finds out it is defended by The Solari, a tribe of sun-worshippers who are led by Leona, The Aspect of The Sun. Leona herself challenges Atreus/Pantheon, but they are interrupted (some think it is by Aurelion Sol, I'm of the belief it's from The Aspect of Twilight, Zoe). Atreus, who hates the Gods for what they did to him, finds that when Pantheon died Atreus didn't lose Pantheon's powers. He uses those powers to fly up again, and it's open-ended as to if he's flying back up to fight, or if he's flying somewhere else. I'm not really sure either.
Some extra information. Sylas also has the ability to find other mages so he was used by mage-seekers to find other mages. Lucian and Senna drive back the Black Mist. Whether that was before or after Viego came. There are other characters there such as Thresh who killed Senna and took her soul. Atreus/Pantheon were fighting against Aatrox, a former Ascended and used to hold a high rank in Shurima. He got corrupted by the Void and started to use blood magic. He was then branded as a Darkin and sealed for eternity in a blade by Pantheon if I'm not mistaken. You can hear him be quite depressed and angry in his voicelines since he isn't allowed to die or take revenge. He can corrupt anyone who touches him and use them as a temporary body. Before Aatrox and Pantheon fought, Pantheon took most of Atreus body which led Pantheon to die while Atreus lived. I think that it was probably Asol who sent the meteorite than Zoe since Zoe is a literal child. Unlike other Aspects, whose host had to climb Mount Targon and most die, the Aspect of Twilight liked Zoe's personality and just decided to pick her so she is an immortal child that can dimension hop. Please correct me if I got something mistaken.
@@frozenduck23 It was the Aspect of Twilight (at the time of the darkin was misha, now the current Aspect of Twilight is Zoe) who teached the shurimans to seal the darkin in their own weapons
Garen's thing doesn't have anything to do with the aspects, its his own magic (which he kinda doesnt know he has). The Crownguards (Lux and Garen's family) have certain affinity for magic despite being Demacian nobility
I started playing LoL 4 years ago and have since then seen every cinematic multiple times, but DAMN, the music combined with visuals still gives me goosebumps and tears in my eyes🥲so beautiful❤ (playing the game sometimes not so fun 😅😆)
If you know the game and champs, u'll see a huge amount of details which is absolute incredible. I absolutely love Awaken (2019), Warriors (2021) and The Call (2022). But The Call is unbeatable best. All their cinematics are great, but The Call has a breath of story and i love it. And that's because a few months before Arcane came out, which is the best series adaptation of a game I've ever seen. BTW u have a misstake in the transition between 2021 and 2022, bcs The Call begin with view on Ornn (that blacksmith), not on symbol of Guardians and posttitle scene. It was anouncement for a biggest story event in the LoL > Ruination.
imagine how cool it would be if after the fight between aatrox and pantheon, atreus meets the kindreds, and the kindreds reap the aspect, but spare the human, because it is not his time yet. THIS WOULD BE INSANE!!!!
Quick rundown of each cinematic plus champion intro in order of appearance: 2009 - game trailer, these are some of the original champions release with the game, some of them have had visual reworks since this trailer - Annie (pre-rework), Master Yi, Nunu & Willump, Original Cast Line up. 2013 - first real cinematic we got - Twisted Fate, Fiddlesticks (pre rework), Ryze, Nocturne, Katarina (red head) and Garen, Tryndamere, Annie (post rework), Baron Nashor (Baron is not a playable character, but an entity on the map you can kill to gain a temporary buff) 2014 - everyones favourite original cinematic and is basically a 3D representation of a typical 5v5 on Summoners Rift (the map name) - Ahri (fox) and Leona, Katarina, Darius, Draven (Darius little brother), Zyra, (left to right group shot) Rengar - Graves - Ahri - Jax, Nautilus (big tanky boi) 2018 - this is the first world building cinematic we get about Ryze cahsing down the world Runes Stones in order to put them somewhere safe and out of reach. These rune stones are extremely powerful and beholders are easily corrupted by them - Ryze, Miss Fortune (Sarah Jane Fortune - Pirate), Nasus (egyptian style good boi), Sona (mute songstress), Trundle (big troll). The last creature we see with Ryze is believed to be a Watcher, one of the all powerful beings that watch the world of Runeterra, they're not good, but not quite bad either, but there is one that went bad (Vel'Koz) 2018 - mini trailer for some new champions that were released (you can also check out Champion trailers and Tales of Runeterra cinematics if you want more lore and world building) - Yasuo, Taliyah (Stone weaver), Ekko (dude, btw), Blitzcrank, Miss Fortune, Lucian, Thresh 2019 - arguably one of the best cinematics imo, but 2022 was phenomenal in graphic animation - Jhin (serial killer), Draven, Irelia, Camille, Riven, Sion (charging at Irelia), Karma (provided a shield for Irelia), Akali (ninja), Yasuo, Kennen (he's a creature called a Yordle, and Yordles are notorious for causing havoc where ever they go) 2020 - this one caused a wee bit of an uproar due to the lore of Demacia (the city you see in the first opening). Demacia has a law banning all mages, prohibiting all maguic and requiring the execution of mages found in the kingdom. Lux, the blonde you see, is Garens little sister, and they're fighting Sylas, a mage who was exiled from Demacia and cmae back to start a civil war and free the mages. Sylas used Lux to gain access to the city. Realistically, Lux would have been executed for doing this AND being a mage herself, but good ol' nepotism means she gets to live - Garen, Lux, Random goons, Ezreal (blond boi), Sylas (chains dude - he summons a sword, because his ingame ultimate ability is to steal other champion ultimates and use them), Caitlyn, Vi (Violet, but she'll tell you it stands for Violence), Kai'sa (purple lady), Urgot (crab dude), Galio (big statue dude). 2021 - this cinematic started the Ruination event that happened for the game. There were extra story lines, in game things to get and skins. It also introduced a champion release, Viego - Lucian, Senna (they are married)(Senna has a piece of Isolde's soul, Viego's queen who died long ago and was reincarnated), Viego, Samira, Darius, Karma, Poppy (Yordle), Vayne. 2022 - This cinematic is honestly the best in terms of visual detail, plus leads into the next event League had for its players, i was also the first time Rek'sai and Ornn showed up in a video and people went nuts - Ornn (God of the Forge), Sejuani (Riding Bristle, her drüvask boar), Taliyah, Kai'sa, Pantheon, Olaf, Voidlings (monster looking things in the desert - non playable), The Ursine (followers of Volibear, a god brought into being by his followers - non playable), Leona, the big beam that threw Pantheon off Mount Targon is believed to have come from Aurelion Sol (star forger and creator of the universe - he created Runeterra, but was then tricked and trapped into servitude by the watchers, he hates the world he created), Rek'sai (the original Mother of the Void) You can also look up a lot of champion lore on their website, and as of today (31/03/23), there's 163 Champions available to play, with the latest release being Milio (loosely based off latina culture).
If you want more amazing videos from Riot: K/DA (K D A) - Popstars, Drum go Dumb, I'll Show You, Villain, The Baddest and More - These are based off the skin line that came out for these champions and created an alternate world. Pentakill - Mortal Reminder - another skin line announcement True Damage - Giants - another skin line announcement You Really Got Me cinematic - the trailer for Wild Rift, the mobile version of League of Legends
there are a lot of character cinematics from league of legends/legends of runeterra (they are the same ingame world) that are worth checking out too. and almost every character has their own music too. i will defo come check out your reactions to any of these, loved the video, and i am sure you have been spammed with people correcting you on Akrane at this point already. almost all of it is free to use as reaction videos, besides the imagine dragons' songs used as they often get a copyright strike. (the other Warriors one, from like 2014)
In most of the fights the characters use skills from the game. Arcane is good, but the more you know about the lore of the League of Legends universe, the more you will fall in love with it.
There is ALOT of background lore between all the characters, If you havn't seen arcane yet, i highly suggest going in blind then maybe going back and reviewing each character individually. Over the years there have been fan favs, The woman in bulky armour who shows up in the "A new dawn" and in "the call" is loved by all the player base 'Leona' the spartan nicknamed "Pantheon" real name of aretues (Think god of war). I could sit here and type like a 700 page essay on each individual character, their backstory and supporting characters. As of very recent yeah the latest "Cinematic" we the fan base were more than angry, we get 1 really high quality cinematic per year, and they pretty much wasted it on a fly by someone made of the map in unreal engine 5 with old Tournament dialog. If you loved these I suggest any of the Music videos alongside some of the 2019. we even had legendary NBA player Gordon hayward on as guest broadcaster and incorporated in a mini video!
The Call always makes me emotional for some reason. I think its the fact that all of them experienced a failure and had to make a choice. possibly hits a little to close to home lol
You missed a couple of good ones, Rise and Enemy. I am torn between Awaken and Rise as my favorite cinematic and song wise. Also you should listen to the original Warriors to compare the remix you watched.
necrit made some videos about the mmo that is coming out that explains a bit of lore. and also is a really good way if you want to go a bit deeper into the lore

The fact that Ornn (red goatlike character in the last one) is making a sword has more impact than anything that happened in all cinematics. Ornn is the Forge God.A fork he would create to eat is a legendary weapon for any mortal on Runeterra. Ornn always refused to create weapons up until now. The forge God creating a weapon, a declaration of war from a god...
The bel'veth trailer is directly what follows the call chronologically. When Kai'Sa (the one that makes the helmet) jumps into the hole, this is where she went. Its definitely worth a watch, albiet short. th-cam.com/video/hjPS3j5XNss/w-d-xo.html Also there are 2 in a more classic anime style about Yone and Yasuo that stand as good as the rest of these.
World of Warcraft lore is as good as league of legends. I just wish blizzard makes a movie or tv show just like riot did with arcane :/. blizzard are wasting their lore potential
Yeah I totally agree, The Call is easily the best one. It's just so perfect in every way
Awaken is better
@@Ignjedi not even close
@@Ignjedi I agree, I think Awaken and Warriors is better than The Call overall, but the visuals in The Calls are the best.
Think about ''The Call'' and how many polygons they have made just for the hand shot alone and how high res the 3d Models were. Every time I see The Call my eyes tear up a little just by the grandness and epicness of the whole project. Mad respect for the animators not only for The Call but overall
yo im still on true damage giants time brother! thats hype!

Quick rundown of each cinematic plus champion intro in order of appearance:
2009 - game trailer, these are some of the original champions release with the game, some of them have had visual reworks since this trailer - Annie (pre-rework), Master Yi, Nunu & Willump, Original Cast Line up.
2013 - first real cinematic we got - Twisted Fate, Fiddlesticks (pre rework), Ryze, Nocturne, Katarina (red head) and Garen, Tryndamere, Annie (post rework), Baron Nashor (Baron is not a playable character, but an entity on the map you can kill to gain a temporary buff)
2014 - everyones favourite original cinematic and is basically a 3D representation of a typical 5v5 on Summoners Rift (the map name) - Ahri (fox) and Leona, Katarina, Darius, Draven (Darius little brother), Zyra, (left to right group shot) Rengar - Graves - Ahri - Jax, Nautilus (big tanky boi)
2018 - this is the first world building cinematic we get about Ryze cahsing down the world Runes Stones in order to put them somewhere safe and out of reach. These rune stones are extremely powerful and beholders are easily corrupted by them - Ryze, Miss Fortune (Sarah Jane Fortune - Pirate), Nasus (egyptian style good boi), Sona (mute songstress), Trundle (big troll). The last creature we see with Ryze is believed to be a Watcher, one of the all powerful beings that watch the world of Runeterra, they're not good, but not quite bad either, but there is one that went bad (Vel'Koz)
2018 - mini trailer for some new champions that were released (you can also check out Champion trailers and Tales of Runeterra cinematics if you want more lore and world building) - Yasuo, Taliyah (Stone weaver), Ekko (dude, btw), Blitzcrank, Miss Fortune, Lucian, Thresh
2019 - arguably one of the best cinematics imo, but 2022 was phenomenal in graphic animation - Jhin (serial killer), Draven, Irelia, Camille, Riven, Sion (charging at Irelia), Karma (provided a shield for Irelia), Akali (ninja), Yasuo, Kennen (he's a creature called a Yordle, and Yordles are notorious for causing havoc where ever they go)
2020 - this one caused a wee bit of an uproar due to the lore of Demacia (the city you see in the first opening). Demacia has a law banning all mages, prohibiting all maguic and requiring the execution of mages found in the kingdom. Lux, the blonde you see, is Garens little sister, and they're fighting Sylas, a mage who was exiled from Demacia and cmae back to start a civil war and free the mages.

It also introduced a champion release, Viego - Lucian, Senna (they are married)(Senna has a piece of Isolde's soul, Viego's queen who died long ago and was reincarnated), Viego, Samira, Darius, Karma, Poppy (Yordle), Vayne.
2022 - This cinematic is honestly the best in terms of visual detail, plus leads into the next event League had for its players, i was also the first time Rek'sai and Ornn showed up in a video and people went nuts - Ornn (God of the Forge), Sejuani (Riding Bristle, her drüvask boar), Taliyah, Kai'sa, Pantheon, Olaf, Voidlings (monster looking things in the desert - non playable), The Ursine (followers of Volibear, a god brought into being by his followers - non playable), Leona, the big beam that threw Pantheon off Mount Targon is believed to have come from Aurelion Sol (star forger and creator of the universe - he created Runeterra, but was then tricked and trapped into servitude by the watchers, he hates the world he created), Rek'sai (the original Mother of the Void)
You can also look up a lot of champion lore on their website, and as of today (31/03/23), there's 163 Champions available to play, with the latest release being Milio (loosely based off latina culture).
If you want more amazing videos from Riot:
K/DA (K D A) - Popstars, Drum go Dumb, I'll Show You, Villain, The Baddest and More - These are based off the skin line that came out for these champions and created an alternate world.
Pentakill - Mortal Reminder - another skin line announcement
True Damage - Giants - another skin line announcement
You Really Got Me cinematic - the trailer for Wild Rift, the mobile version of League of Legends
there are a lot of character cinematics from league of legends/legends of runeterra (they are the same ingame world) that are worth checking out too. and almost every character has their own music too.
i will defo come check out your reactions to any of these, loved the video, and i am sure you have been spammed with people correcting you on Akrane at this point already.
almost all of it is free to use as reaction videos, besides the imagine dragons' songs used as they often get a copyright strike. (the other Warriors one, from like 2014)
at 7:25 its thought that Ahri(the fox girl) used her charm ability at the moment even though it doesnt look quite how it does in game.
In most of the fights the characters use skills from the game. Arcane is good, but the more you know about the lore of the League of Legends universe, the more you will fall in love with it.
you should have to see the whole Ruination parts there more of them. The story is realy good.
great reaction
Call of power is by far my most liked cinematic
I read that the 2023 cinematic was a rush job to have Something since they had some trouble with the studio making the actual cinematic.
Do a reaction to all the "Tales of Runeterra".
You will understand some stories behind some of the characters.
There is ALOT of background lore between all the characters, If you havn't seen arcane yet, i highly suggest going in blind then maybe going back and reviewing each character individually. Over the years there have been fan favs, The woman in bulky armour who shows up in the "A new dawn" and in "the call" is loved by all the player base 'Leona' the spartan nicknamed "Pantheon" real name of aretues (Think god of war). I could sit here and type like a 700 page essay on each individual character, their backstory and supporting characters.
As of very recent yeah the latest "Cinematic" we the fan base were more than angry, we get 1 really high quality cinematic per year, and they pretty much wasted it on a fly by someone made of the map in unreal engine 5 with old Tournament dialog.
If you loved these I suggest any of the Music videos alongside some of the 2019. we even had legendary NBA player Gordon hayward on as guest broadcaster and incorporated in a mini video!
I would pay a fee to watch u react to Arcane, loved your reaction.
in the call you can hear ornn humming in the background
Bro the fall is epic, but check out the new Cyperpunk 2077 Cinematic, its mind blowing.
idk if anyone said it yet but the guys playing piano is the guys called Jhin
About Arcane. You don't need to play game or understand it to watch it. It is good as standalone series.
The Call always makes me emotional for some reason. I think its the fact that all of them experienced a failure and had to make a choice. possibly hits a little to close to home lol
To think they only started implying lore in the cinematics starting 2018, 2014 was kinda showing how the fights in-game would be if it was irl
You missed a couple of good ones, Rise and Enemy. I am torn between Awaken and Rise as my favorite cinematic and song wise. Also you should listen to the original Warriors to compare the remix you watched.
U should try so many more videos :D
League has amazing cinematics
Watching only these, you're missing out on some of the best animations LoL has ever put out.
Awaken is so good
For the people asking, Tales of Runeterra Reaction can be found here: th-cam.com/video/YTeXfaTL-aQ/w-d-xo.html
Just wait until he discovers their Rise video =)
also, the 2009 cinematic was pre-release, so they had literally zero money to put into it
you should react to league of legends music as well
necrit made some videos about the mmo that is coming out that explains a bit of lore. and also is a really good way if you want to go a bit deeper into the lore
Some of these I would categorize as to be some of their music videos, which you should 100% check out.
League of legends lore has an amazing potential and after watching arcane, can't wait for Jhin to appear
please do more from league. their characters and songs. maybe start with jinx song, also rise song
Apparently an issue happened with the 2023 cinematic, so did what they could and made a makeshift one last minute, which is what we got
2023 cinematic ( or lack of it) maybe was because covid during 2022... Doing some nice movie take time
its a bird
its a plane
no, its
A CRANE
It’s R-Kane not A-Crane 😅
You gotta watch the music videos
the call is peak 100% not biased because im a pantheon main
Ukraine is a pretty dope show as a lore fan I recommend it
I still don't get how riot makes animations that had history of having blocky gta gliches and this having realistic eyes, beard etc.
Now you need to watch 2024 it’s the best one by far
Simplesmente ignorou a cinemática de 2023 kkkk
Draven threw her sword to cut her chains btw for a fair fight.
Riot made the songs too not just the animations
Thanks for not putting 2023 in the video
I suggest checking Annie's video, it's beautiful
Arcane
Yeah I'm so used to saying acrane for some reason instead of arcane
@@ItzJoshNv Hello there Its my honored.
So far thank you and all of new comers in this fantasy world.
As the League of legends = Runeterra lore lover i am glad you become one of new fans.

Yeah two Anime to watch are Cyberpunk: Edgerunners and Arcane!
YES PLEASE! WATCH ARCANE! WOULD LOVE TO KNOW WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT IT 👍
The fact that Ornn (red goatlike character in the last one) is making a sword has more impact than anything that happened in all cinematics. Ornn is the Forge God.A fork he would create to eat is a legendary weapon for any mortal on Runeterra. Ornn always refused to create weapons up until now. The forge God creating a weapon, a declaration of war from a god...
Arcane not A Crane lol. Like the Arcane arts of magic.
The bel'veth trailer is directly what follows the call chronologically. When Kai'Sa (the one that makes the helmet) jumps into the hole, this is where she went. Its definitely worth a watch, albiet short.
th-cam.com/video/hjPS3j5XNss/w-d-xo.html
Also there are 2 in a more classic anime style about Yone and Yasuo that stand as good as the rest of these.
0:30 dijo elo hell? le sabe? ok ya paro.
Where's the newest cinematic?!
Which one
@@qiyanaenjoyer17756 free cam one
ARE CANE........😢😢😢
Subscribing just for the off chance we get Arcane ep reactions!
Warriors from 2014 >>> 2020. And it's not even close.
Please react to lol worlds songs and the opening ceremonies.
lil bro said A Crane the Series 💀
2023 cinematic was ... lol
garren OP...
u forget watch 2023 video. Oh right xD
Check K/DA now, please! Love your content, mate!
You should put the cinematic even smaller, we don't see enough your face!
please watch blizzard cinematics!
Bro said A- crane instead of ar cane
not ACRANE....A-R-C-A-N-E LOL
no offense, but sometimes you remind me of the guy that called diglett ''floorshit,, in front of a live audience.
World of Warcraft lore is as good as league of legends. I just wish blizzard makes a movie or tv show just like riot did with arcane :/. blizzard are wasting their lore potential
Yeah the cinematics are so good that they could make you want to play the game. But the game is just shit lmao. And that's coming from a player.
You are wrong the game is good
Lucky he didn't watch the 2023 cinematic
