Are energy bankers tired of this question?

I enjoy movies, and one of the most interesting ones I have seen is There Will Be Blood which is about an oil man building an oil empire. When I chat with O&G bankers, I sometimes jokingly ask if they have seen it and if their job is anything like that. It is obviously meant as a joke.

I plugged the question into ChatGPT and it told me it is not recommended because energy bankers are tired of hearing it.

I understand not ever mentioning Wolf of Wall Street to a banker, but this one is actually specific to the energy space. Thoughts?
