To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Everything Everywhere All At Once. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Jobu Tupaki's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into her characterisation- her personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike EEAAO truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Jobu Tupaki's existential catchphrase "Sucked into a bagel," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Daniels' genius wit unfolds itself on their film screens. What fools.. how I pity them
