On Dr. Strangelove

Socially awkward things happen to me.

When I was flying back from Japan, I was fortunate enough to be on an airline that allowed me to watch movies on demand.  I had never watched Dr. Strangelove, although I knew it was a critically acclaimed film.  In order to kill 13 hours and catch up on classic cinematography, I watched it.  Before getting into it, I had a vague idea of what the movie was about, and everything was going fine until the end.  [Gratuitous use of the term "spoiler alert"] Footage of nuclear bombs goes off for about 2 minutes.   All the Japanese people sitting next to me turned and shook their heads with disapproval.
