This short has almost nothing to do with the Egyptian theater. It's mostly Guillermo del Toro prattling on about watching movies. There are a few other people in it that talk about, not the Egyptian theater, but watching movies. Clip after clip of vintage films, in a pastiche that is disorienting and pointless. Every now, and then, three or four seconds of the exterior, or the interior of the theater. Nothing about what it used to look like, in its heyday, or how it has been altered to the mere shell of its former self it is today. What was the point of this? I have absolutely no idea. It's a waste of 11 minutes.
