| 0:00.0 | Now, there's not much to say about this next movie, except for... |
| 0:04.0 | We saw Mortal Kombat, so you know what that means. |
| 0:08.0 | Now it's time for... |
| 0:11.0 | How did this campaign? |
| 0:12.0 | We're gonna have a good time, celebrate some failure, not just be a hater, |
| 0:16.0 | because you know you wonder, how did this campaign? |
| 0:18.0 | Let's follow in the mediocrity of subpar art. Perhaps we'll find the answer to the question. How did this get made? Hello, people of Earth and welcome to How Did This Get Made? I am Paul Shear, joined as always by Jason Mandzicus. How are you, Jason? Oh, boy, fine, I guess. Just watch this movie. |
| 0:38.6 | And June, Diane, Raphael. |
