31:27

In a world where AI has taken over most human roles, it's easy for a lone man to develop a what-seems-genuine relationship with an Operating System. Impactful and at times disturbing, with Her (2013) Spike Jonze perfectly portrayed what alienation can lead to. And although the hosts - finally - disagree in their liking of the movie, the recognition…

The hype was there, and the disappointment was real. "Joker II: Folie à Deux" took an unexpected turn that didn’t quite match the tone of its predecessor.
