There's literally nothing to get. They threw a bunch of ideas at the wall and hoped that something would stick. There's no cohesive logic or theming, it's just a bunch of slapdash symbolism that pseudo-intellectuals will jerk off over.

i will accept this interpretation of the film.

I could tell you stories...
It is about how rich hollywood kikes keep making movies about the common man while never listening to the common man
All I know is that the hotel was supposed to be hell and John Goodman was Satan.
Why are these movies allowed? They make no sense whatsoever and then we get a bunch of art critics looking for symbolism and metaphors with some wild leaps of logic.

John Goodman's performance in the movie is worht sitting through the rest imo.

This. It's about pretentiousness in general; Barton pretends that he is speaking for the common man in his works and he's making something "special" but he constantly interrupts Charlie. He's doing the exact kind of bullshit the movie studios do to him, but he's clueless about it

But the same goes for any movie Goodman's in.

Just watched this movie for the first time tonight, I liked it.
