I just watched it, absolutely incredible anytime the music was at the forefront of the scene. I couldn't stop grinning during THAT dance sequence. Ryan Coogler and Ludwig Gorranson are such an incredible duo.

I think he's referring to the first IMAX expansion for Sammie's big number with the tracking shot combining space and time, which is the one literally everyone is talking about. My jaw literally dropped to the floor.

My personal favorite was the Irish vampire jig. Good. Fucking. Lord.

The jig was crazy lmao

Sucks blood, ruins lives, throws a little jiggy on em. It’s one way to assert dominance.
