Yes, irony may be one of the deepest truths of many things, as reading Pynchon affirms.
The movie even takes shots at itself...#self-parody. #ppstmodernismoseverywhere
Plus, it may be one of the slyist anti-Religion movies ever made for kids.
Maybe a full body secular self-acceptance vision...after God debunkings ( not just a movie without such references, leaving one intact with whatever beliefs one came in with)
