This guy broke down the 'you’re gonna wanna take a look at this' movie trope so well it hurts

"You're gonna wanna take a look at this" -- a movie trope so popular that it probably only loses out to "let's go home" or "why don't we all split up."

People were delighted by the incisive analysis, though a few had additions of their own.

Well guys, we're glad we took a look at this.
