OCEAN'S 8 - Official Main Trailer
Pretty girls (well, they're all younger than I am) playing at being master criminals. Entertaining.

Jewels are very nice and all, but they aren't particularly useful. Oh, you can use them to cut glass, but a simple carbide point can do that. They occasionally show up in movies at the focus of an evil mastermind's laser weapon, but a professor in Washington wanted some big diamonds so he made his own. They have no real, practical value.
I guess it's kind of like art and fancy cars. When you have more money than you know what do with, you go looking for things you can buy, things you couldn't buy when you were a poor schmuck like the rest of us. It's the magpie gene, we like shiny things.
