* Kyle's discussion of ''Series/BlackMirror'' concludes with the revelation that - despite the dark tone, the extreme examinations of human flaws as unveiled by technology, and the frequently depressing endings - the series isn't purely negative: it's not meant to be about how HumansAreBastards, nor is it an anti-technology screed, but rather an examination of how [[ObliviouslyEvil empathy breaks down when human interaction occurs through a filter]], and how beneath the filter, we are all still human beings.
-->'''Kyle:''' Brooker's stories aren't for anyone who hates new tech or uses it too much, but for anyone who still ''feels,'' who can still "see" the other users. In short, [[WaxingLyrical anyone who knows what love is. They'll understand]].

* In his Between The Lines on Inception, Kyle points out that the dream sequences and the shots used to illustrate them are all references to famous films, such as ManWithAMovieCamera. He points out that not only are movies themselves a type of dreamworld-- a perspective stated in his Beauty and The Beast project-- but that this indicates that when Christopher Nolan sleeps, he dream of movies. He doesn't flee from his work, like most people, but dives further into it. How many people love what they do that much?

* The end of his review of ''Mister Lonely''. After going into detail about some of the actors and people working on the film, he explains that he believes that Korine made a film that demonstrated what was happening in the movie- many of the actors and others working on the film have made amazing things and worked with genii, but are not known to many. In turn, the film is about a group of impersonators who are trying to be someone else, someone they deem to be better than themselves, and so they rarely act like themselves. In short, Korine is trying to show the world what it's like to try and be greater than yourself, only to have an audience of few, no matter how skilled you are. And because of that, Kyle just can't hate it.

Well, that's because in this scene, the cameraman starts singing this little song... yeah, that.

Now, I may subject you to all kinds of cruel images, but I promise you, I will never show you a real dead body, because I love you, and Harmony Korine doesn't.
