Yes, you did. You took one comment about accessibility and went to Transformers. That's absurd.

But I don't think we're using accessible in the same way. I mean it's not very approachable, easy to get into.

A movie can not be mainstream, while still being accessible to viewers. It can be intelligent while still being accessible. Most audiences, even among the movie-going literate, would find this movie a strange duck. There's very little dialog; there's very little action (and I don't mean bang bang, car go boom, action; I mean very little actually happens); there's a huge amount metaphor; there's also a huge amount of "WTF is going on".
