I was impressed by the special effects alone perhaps. Fighting stain glass window knights etc.
Last time I fought a window I came in a bloody second.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

I'm still wearing short sleeves and sandals.
Totally not because I'm only outside for less than 30 seconds at a time.
I'll wizen up eventually.

I used to when I lived in the Northeast. -20F at night through January was not unusual, and the temperature often didn't break 0F in the day time. Back then I was living in student housing that you couldn't heat above 60F on a good day,
and even that unreliably.
Since moving to the PNW I've not found such garments necessary, even in the coldest months.
Most of the winter here doesn't even go below freezing.

This reminds me of an interesting anecdote I heard back in the late 1970's.
Henry David Thoreau was making his way to town from his cabin near Walden Pond, intent on doing some early morning shopping. The air was bitterly cold and the January snow was over a foot deep. About halfway to the general store he passed a farmhouse with a cord of firewood neatly piled on its front porch. Much to his surprise, a barefooted old man clad in nothing but his underwear suddenly emerged from the house and hastily began gathering wood from the pile.
"Excuse me, sir!" Thoreau exclaimed. "You're going to catch your death of cold! You should put some clothes on before going outside."
The old man eyed Thoreau sternly for a moment, then replied, "Young man, I've been getting dressed in front of a hot stove for over seventy years. I'm too old to change."
