When the two friends connect after Kurt takes a soul-numbing job at a massive pop culture toy company, their reunion sparks a chaotic plan to push back against a culture of consumerism that leads them on an absurd nightmare of rebellion, infighting, self-doubt, fandom, corporate success and terrorism. Equal parts Fight Club and Sideways, Pop! explores friendship, authenticity, desperation, and the collapse of art in a world dominated by nostalgia, branding, and three and a half star reviews. Here's hoping they find some personal growth before the end?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"A hilarious metatextual romp that manages to be both scathingly critical and heart-warmingly honest about what it means to consume, what it means to create, what it means to be.
