Mech Pilot who is on the picket line right next to the actor who plays them in the movie.
Pilot: So they really told you I didnt want to be involved in production?
Actor: Hand to heart, mate, they made you seem like a real asshole. But honestly i did my own research and once I got the script I didnt really blame you.
Pilot: Ha! Fair enough. Nah, as soon as I heard they were shopping it around I knew it was just gonna be some fuckin propaganda. I just figured if they were gonna make it anyway I wanted to try to do what I could to make it not a Complete trash fire.
Actor: And just No response?
Pilot: Left on read. Couldnt even get a shitty cameo.
Actor: Absolute bastards. Can I ask you though, at the risk of seeming vain...what did you really think? Like manners out the window, let me have it.
Pilot: Truly truly? It was really weird. Some parts I laughed, just straight up "I'd never fucking say that like that in my Life, that never happened thay way." Other shit was like I was reliving it. Like when i dream about stuff and its not my point of view, ya know? But you did great with it all. Youre a fuckin professional, its why we're here.
Actor: Thanks, really. That means a lot.
Pilot: The Weirdest thing that stuck out to me tho? And maybe its a bit grim.
Actor: Hit me.
Pilot: ...When I lost the leg I didnt actually scream as loud as you did. And the one they gave me didnt look nearly as nice as yours.
