This movie should have been titled "Titan: The Stockton Rush Disaster." We watched this Netflix account of the most narcissistic and self centered deep submersible pseudo diving professional the universe saw fit to create. Join us on this analysis of how entitlement and monstrous ego led to a half baked submersible company, years of corporate intimidation, a legacy of ignoring and persecuting subject matter experts, and ultimately the death of five people (spoiler alert: this egomaniacal square headed life ruiner also died, so that's good).
Louisa never would have written that, but Jay absolutely detested this guy. Stockton fired people and prosecuted those whose job it was to safeguard other people's lives. If you learn anything from our show or this movie, greatness does not exist in a vacuum (pardon the pun). You need to learn to work well with other people and being a good leader requires listening to your peers.
P.S. Jay actually had a recipe today.
