This is the most unrealistic scene for me for a movie about aliens and time travel.
shareWeirdly, a lot of Americans do pretend to give a shit about soccer when the world cup rolls around, but I'm guessing that world cup parties would be few and far between.
shareI live in America and I know a bunch of Americans
Nobody gives a shit about Soccer here
Hell, I had to google what 'The World Cup' even was
Stupid low scoring sport...keep it to yourselves rest of the world!

You're either ignorant or trolling. The World Cup is one of the most-watched sporting events by Americans, especially when the US team is playing. The USA vs. Ghana match from the 2014 World Cup had a larger American audience than all but one NBA playoff game that year, every game of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, the Kentucky Derby, the final round of The Masters and the Daytona 500.
Try getting a seat in a sports bar at World Cup time, regardless of what two countries are playing. I've seen crowds three rows deep peering into windows of packed bars watching entire matches that don't include the U.S. team.
Yeah. I wondered if they had done something weird like film an American football and regular football sequence and changed it for different regions like they sometimes do with in film adverts that they feel more are more suitable for specific regions that might not have that particular brand.
I was sure it was American football in the trailer but I went and checked and nope, just football.
To be fair, barely anyone really watched the game. It was foremost a christmas party (final is on Dec 18 2022) and the soccer game was running in the background. People really only got interested when the Brazilian was running alone to hit the goal. This makes it quite believable to me.
In other parts of the world, where football is a thing, people would actively watch it. They might chat with their friends, but would always have one eye on the screen - even if both teams are not theirs. That's at least my own experience.
Yeah it was pretty realistic, only the little girl was interested and her parents where there supporting her. In a South American country all the guys would be watching.
shareYeah it looked like this was some weird product placement or something.
America wasn’t even playing lol. 0% there’d be a bbq with this match unless you’re a 1st gen migrant.
