Talking about how heists are inherently cool and sexy is really not helping you beat the “a core problem of our age is that too many people think movies are real” charges, tbh

yes, heists are very cool and sexy in movies. as in works of fiction

Anyway, I am a museum enthusiast and stealing from public institutions then selling those historic works of art to evil, rich people who will stash them away where no one can see them makes me very angry

they're doing a thomas crowne affair remake and as much as i love that movie it feels like the wrong cultural moment to make a bored billionaire who steals priceless works of art from the public into a hero
