@henrythekidd_ I’m going for the hottest post-F1:The Movie take let’s go Fr though some unreal fits through the movie - Costume Designer Julian Day crushed it. I read that he and Pitt essentially just set up a room with 100s of garments, picked some favs, put them in a change room and then would decide on shoot day what felt right. Kinda dope and clearly worked.

Creator critiques celebrity clothing brandfrom @henrythekidd_

[01]

Overview

The creator recounts watching the new F1 movie and becoming obsessed with a shirt Brad Pitt wears. He researches the shirt, discovers it's from Pitt's own brand 'God's True Cashmere,' and reveals its exorbitant price of over $3,000. The creator then pivots to his main critique, mocking the brand's pseudo-spiritual marketing, specifically the claim that the amethyst buttons provide 'attunement and protection,' which he calls 'Hollywood bullshit' before concluding the brand is for out-of-touch celebrities.

  4. 4

    The Price Shock & Misdirection

    Introduces a predictable point of conflict (e.g., high cost, major flaw) and then immediately dismisses it as the primary issue, subverting audience expectations and creating suspense for the *real* problem.

  5. 5

    The Absurdity Reveal

    Unveils the true, often ridiculous, source of conflict or judgment, providing the narrative's comedic or dramatic climax.

  6. 6

    BRAD PITT'S WHACK CLOTHING BRAND

Transcript

I saw the new F1 movie this week and while it was incredibly cheesy, what I did not expect is the fucking fashion rabbit hole it would send me down. So Brad Pitt's main job in this movie was just to be hot and good, which, no hate, that's what I'm aspiring to as well. And the whole time the dude is just throwing fucking fits. I was obsessed. And in particular, I was obsessed with this shirt right here. It just draped really nicely. It had this texture to it. So I started researching. Now I didn't know this, but Brad Pitt has his own brand called God's True Cashmere, and the shirt is from there. 3,000 fucking dollars. Rank like, it's not surprising that Brad Pitt's clothing brand would be really expensive, but that's kinda not what pissed me off. No. What did it for me are these amethyst buttons. For attunement and protection, what kind of Hollywood bullshit is this? Someone stop this rank. We choose the gemstones for their specific healing. Best make the shirt, dawg, and add your fucking crystals to it. Look, I get it. It's not for me. It's for fucking, like, 60 year old celebrities who drink raw milk or whatever. It's like the last bastion of top knot appreciation. And yes, he good fresh, whatever.
