House crashing in slow-motion?


Just saw this film recently and was really intrigued by it. I was wondering what people thought about the shot near the beginning of the film of the house crashing in slow-motion?

But above all, I am a man, a hopelessly inquisitive man, just like you.

I think in a way it represents the end of innocence. It's shown exactly at the same time Mike is getting a blow job from his date.

I don't believe any innocence was involved. I thought maybe he came and it was rather shattering...did the house fall on a witch?

You can't go home again.
