And this is Peter Atencia, the director of Jean-Claude Van Johnson. And you're listening to The Reel Nerds Podcast. Music Welcome to Reel Nerds Podcast.
[00:01:53] It's unofficially the official podcast of Denver Comic Con 2019. And fuck you! That was really good. It's almost like we're predictable. We've had 358 chances to practice this. Technically more because we don't number everything. Say that again, but more sad and depressing. We've had 348. I think it's quite an achievement.
[00:02:19] I think we've built a good enough brand that I mentioned last week that we can all do our own little thing and the show can still go on. Like Brad, you debuted your 48-hour film festival at the Sea Film Center.
[00:02:33] Thanks for coming guys. I appreciate you showing up. I was supporting my wife and her need to maybe go to work the next day. It was really important. Keeping the people of Idaho Springs safe. If you were at the big premiere night one, then I could have gone.
[00:02:50] So we have to actually succeed for care? Yes. I'm a populist person. I would have gone if my glasses didn't break and I had to go to the eye doctor. On a Sunday? The Pearl Vision is open on a Sunday which I found weird. The Pearl Necklace.
[00:03:07] Yes, the Pearl Necklace in South Glen. If they hadn't been open, how would you have been able to see the Meg? This is why it's really important to places people put on something.
[00:03:17] Brad, I watched the trailer for If It Bleeds and I don't know what the fuck's going on in that movie. It looks like people protesting. Tell us about it. It's only six minutes so I don't want to spoil everything but you're on the right track.
[00:03:32] Is it people protesting? It's in line with that. Just think about the adage if it bleeds, it leads and it'll... So a woman wants them up? Everyone's a female audience. No one's going to see it so I'll just say it.
[00:03:55] James is messing around with some buttons and some microphones so I'm just going to stall. You're explaining your movie. I'm a character that looks like Will for Brimley but he has a take on the name.
[00:04:05] We got dark comedy for our genre this year and the alternative choice was school drama so we're like, we'll just combine both and make that our challenge. So we did dark comedy about school dramas. But most of your stuff I would say borderlines on dark comedy.
[00:04:24] I was really excited when we got that. Being school drama I thought of the ending to 22 Jump Street of all the different schools that we could have fun with. And then I leaned throughout Crisis Actor School. I'll just stop right there. This is your ninth one, correct?
[00:04:44] Is this your best film you've made? That remains to be seen. Yesterday a lot of people told me it was really good. Topical Humor is not my wheelhouse. I'd say I enjoy some of the other stuff we've done more. But we'll see.
[00:05:06] But your gig is just the director and cinematographer though, right? So you just shoot what other people want you to shoot. Exactly. The last Hargan and Sorrow in this have been really adapting other people's material.
[00:05:17] I saw a documentary with some filmmaker before that said that's the real market for directories. Like adapting other people's stuff rather than just writing and directing your own. So that's been an interesting challenge. But yeah there's like a piece of it that doesn't feel personal enough.
[00:05:31] So everyone's good in it. Me personally I never would have made a Crisis Actor mockumentary. But everyone stepped up the plate. So do you think it pushes you to shoot somebody else's material? Because you said it's hard because you don't get inspired.
[00:05:56] But does it push you as a filmmaker and as an artist? Yeah, we only do it three days out of the year. So it's hard to capitalize on that little area of learning more. There's a lot of time to lose those skills and those perspectives.
[00:06:14] So I'd like to think, learn from it. But we'll see next year. I can't really tell until I make something wholly my own next. Do you do what I do? Sitting in front of the laptop with it playing on a loop for 48 hours straight
[00:06:30] and trying to figure out what the fuck did I do wrong? Honestly oh actually it's funny you mentioned wrong. Because on Sunday morning the first edit we had of the piece it was the Ryan Carroll and our sound designer Mike Henderson were there.
[00:06:47] And of all the nine films we've done, other than the first one it was the worst feeling that we wasted the weekend because the edit just didn't reflect the humor that we were going for. So we spent the rest of Sunday just adding and adding and adding.
[00:07:03] Penny whistle after penny whistle after penny whistle. You're joking. Get that comedy in there. It really is sound design is what accentuated all the beats that were missing. I just fell into some butterscotch. So it's more of a mockumentary style so I'm a little bummed
[00:07:22] that I didn't get to use my drone or the expensive lens I bought this year like tooth full effect. Did anybody ever look at the camera from around the room and then you like zoomed in on their face while they gave a knowing look at the camera?
[00:07:36] You know what I'm saying. I might have done it but I don't think I ended up in the edit but we did go for an office style. Yeah you Jim Halperd that shit. So there's no camera in the back corner that stays on in a Fred Durst
[00:07:47] not Fred Durst Robert Durst style where it's revealed that he did terrible things. You should totally direct like Fred Durst. Yeah it just like. That's my plans in this business he did it for the nookie. We're done we can retire we can retire guys we're done.
[00:08:05] Remember how shitty Limp Bizkit is. Man it was so cool and so bad. No it's not cool ever. Like you would turn on the MTV which was already a mistake and there was so much there was so much constant Limp Bizkit. Holy shit.
[00:08:20] I was young enough to not really notice it. He never really sang he just shouted. Yeah. And it was awful. I never got into that kind of. I mean I guess I'm a Rod Stewart guy but you know I could never get into that kind of music.
[00:08:36] I'm not angry I'm not angry enough. That name always just kind of bothered me so I didn't bother. I don't know Limp Bizkit sounds weird. They sang about cookies and asses. It was great. Okay. Yeah but it was terrible.
[00:08:49] But you can take them and shove them up your asses. Give me two weeks to come up with a song about cookies and asses I don't know how we got on this. Music was really bad then.
[00:08:56] The lyric is you can take these cookies and shove them up your ass. Yeah. Because he did it all for the nookie. I did it all for the nookie. So you can take that cookie and stick it up your yeah if it's on MTV.
[00:09:07] That sounds like a terrible song about cookies and asses. Yeah. You know what when I think about 1990s or 2000s I just wanted it that way. Also terrible. Tell me why you did that joke Ryan. Tell me why. Hey nothing but a heartache.
[00:09:24] So Brad congratulations the posters look great by the way. I love the use of the American colors and. Yeah that was like a last minute thing because I was going for like punk at first and then.
[00:09:34] How come your best work is sometimes last minute and you're like oh I need to get this done. Because there's no time to overthink it and so yes as much yeah because like on Monday
[00:09:43] we had to give a design to the printers to get them ready for Friday. So it's like you know it's got to get done today so hopefully. I come up with something good and yeah I did. Yeah you do it's great. Yeah congrats.
[00:09:53] I can't wait to see it in the finals thing. Well Brad you're one hell of a designer. There's no guarantee because blocks C&D were amazing. All the way through. So yeah I mean overall there's there was great stuff but mostly C&D were just like straight through.
[00:10:08] You know and roughly about 15 go to the best of so it's gonna be really tough for those whoever makes those choices to make choices. Stranger Studios though.
[00:10:17] Oh my god like they did a their film was Generation Gap but they worked something else in that just like blew my mind. I don't want to spoil it for them because I might do some of their marketing. Right now.
[00:10:30] But it was yeah I did it was like feature film level work I was so surprised like not not that they. They're pretty impressed not surprised. Yeah like they could win again this year. Which I think would be the fourth time. It was so professional.
[00:10:50] They're like the Emmanuel LeBetsky of Colorado film they just keep winning Oscars. Who what the cinematographer who kept winning for three years in a row. Oh for Revenant Birdman and that gravity. Oh yeah yeah. Keeping Deacons at bay. Yeah Roger Deacons is so cool.
[00:11:11] He finally got his right. Yeah and he was just kind of like looked like he was just like no I don't really care. Well after the Oscars. Oh god. But yeah this week in Real News.
[00:11:20] So every week on Real Nerds podcast we go see a new movie we podcast our experience of this to the world. This week we saw the Meg I need to know if that sharks giant. At some points the shark is kind of wearing a wire.
[00:11:34] It kind of is. You know just saying. Yeah. Yep Jason Statham and a giant shark. Stay tuned in the podcast will see if you should see it play the trailer and then spoil the movie.
[00:11:48] The last two weeks have been Mission Impossible and Christopher Robin and I show up for the fucking Meg. Yeah. Oh my god. What's that about. Movies that are coming out movies we've been watching and movie news and I you know you guys
[00:12:01] and you know stopped me last week when I was talking about Kerry Grant's notorious but I was describing suspicion and I didn't realize that till I got home. I'm like fuck.
[00:12:11] Dude I mean it's I was super tired so I probably was not the difference is in notorious he forces us Nazi to work for. Yeah. Yeah awesome. It's a really good one. How about there both. It's like 100 bucks on Amazon. Well it's probably because it's out of print.
[00:12:26] You know it's out of print. Yeah. I think you get it in the Alfred Hitchcock collection though. You can and there's also they're probably gonna like they're gonna probably re-release that shit within the next two years. Oh sure hopefully with better box art because is that one remember.
[00:12:37] Yeah like the big red flag thing maybe maybe it'll go to a criterion that'd be sweet because they've been getting a lot of Hitchcock lately and that'd be nice.
[00:12:47] Yeah it'd be cool especially for the for the older like less remembered stuff you know I don't I don't need a bird's criterion. I but yeah no I I barely remember last month right now so.
[00:12:59] Before we start you know that everybody here we love the Almond Draft House they ground broke on their third site. Ooh will be in Westminster so they have one south one in the middle and one in Westminster great that's really smart.
[00:13:11] And weigh the fuck up and at this rate it's gonna be even cooler and I'm gonna be mad because it's gonna be even farther away.
[00:13:18] Yeah so I mean I'll have to go to it because they're having their biggest screen there and it's called the Alamo Big Show which is a huge screen. Oh yeah they're doing their IMAX stuff there right. Yeah so it's gonna be inside the Origins Hotel complex thing.
[00:13:32] Yeah there's one in Red Rocks so they're like themed hotels. Yeah it's like there's this whole piece of property up there that I think used to be like a big shopping mall or something like that
[00:13:44] that they've cleared out. I've got some friends who live up there near Cochappellee Brewery which is a fantastic brewery up there anyway. And so every time I drive up there I'm like oh my god it's gonna happen but it's gonna be so far away.
[00:13:58] It's a cool little little property. Yeah no it's awesome so it's good that we're lucky that we have three Alamos here. Yep so almost transiting. I know right.
[00:14:08] I don't know if you guys talked about it way back when but like the you know the one here in Denver kind of sets a lot of trends
[00:14:13] like the whole straw thing where like they're all changing to paper straws and stuff like that because of Denver and like you know the one here is pretty cool. Did you ever utilize the straws when they were there though? Oh hell yeah I never really did.
[00:14:25] I hate every time I go now and I'm like god damn it where's my freaking straw. So yeah I want paper straws as fast as possible. Honestly I'm really weird and I like straws too because I don't like my lips touching.
[00:14:35] Yeah well the glasses that I mean I'm sure they're fine and they're clean it's just my own like fear of it. I'm really weird. It's like public restrooms I freaking hate them.
[00:14:44] It's not a cleanliness thing for me it's two things one it's that I don't when it's dark like I want to be able to drink without like have an ice and shit in the way.
[00:14:52] So like I don't want to you know I don't want to worry about like spilling or I'm really bad at drinking. I'm a child. You know what I should bring for you? That's the problem and I drink I drink a lot more and faster if there's a straw.
[00:15:03] I'm bringing so you can take it with you. I bought this thing off Amazon for Kellen or their rubber straws that you just they were usable and clean them and they work pretty well. He likes them for his chocolate milk.
[00:15:15] So I bet those are really hard to remove from the nostril of a turtle. Probably that's a reference to internet videos of straws up nostrils of turtles. Yeah very sad. It's terrible. I watched a man versus wild were bear grills cooked in a turtle. That was good.
[00:15:30] I know it didn't look good to me. We also got an email. Corrine sent in this one. So this might be hard for you guys because you guys don't read it. Hey nerds. So something I have been thinking about recently is a AFI top 100 list of movie quotes.
[00:15:51] I remember watching the special when it aired in 2005. But if they were to redo the list maybe 15 20 years from now I wonder what movie quotes from modern day are going to endure the way. Here's looking at you kid.
[00:16:05] Soil and green is people and frankly my dear I don't give a damn among others have endured here on the list. Have endured to be on the list today. So here's my question. Looking only at movies that have come out in the past five years.
[00:16:18] What quotes do you think are so iconic enough that they will stand the test of time and youngsters will have will still be quoting them. 50 years from now. Now the way I would define iconic is the quote captures the essence of the film.
[00:16:30] It is said at a major turning point for a character and or gives insight to a major plot line. No I am your father the quote perfectly encapsules capsulates the character saying it and their relationship with the person that it's being said to.
[00:16:45] It is said during the film's climax. You know what's really bad is reading stuff like with the microphone stand right here. It hurts my eyes. I don't think all the entries in the AFI's list would meet this criteria but I think most of them would.
[00:16:58] Anyway I tried thinking of some myself and eventually thought of a few but I'm curious to hear your thoughts as you guys have seen a lot more movies over the past five years and I have coming up with some my quantum codes will probably be easier for you.
[00:17:09] Thanks for letting me pick your brains. I'm Mary Poppins y'all. That is a really big one. That is a really good one. I did read the email so there you go. Oh nice. Good job buddy. No I think you're right. Mary Poppins y'all.
[00:17:21] My name is Daniel Lugo and I believe in fitness. I want pain and gain to get something. No they have to make more than six million dollars at the box office. Oh that's mean.
[00:17:32] I don't think this one would but I rewatch Creed this week and I realize I really want to remember the line.
[00:17:40] One step one punch one round at a time like that to me is a really cool powerful in the same way that some of the quits from the original Rocky are like that sort of chant in that film is so cool.
[00:17:51] No one else will remember it but I will. Man it's a good question though. Robert Redford saying hail Hydra. Yeah that's a good one. I mean I was going to go with the Spider-Man with great power comes great responsibility I think. Oh that's from 1964 like come on.
[00:18:06] She's talking about movies on its using a movie so much that it's become part of it. They don't use it anymore. It's so well known that they won't ever say it. No you're right. Man.
[00:18:19] I was going to say also like oh what a lovely day for Mad Max Street Road. Yeah yeah. I mean her specific criteria. No but I think every time people advertise that movie they use that instead of the more obvious one which is. Shit what is it.
[00:18:33] I'm arriving Valhalla. Oh witness me. Yeah this may. No I would say both of those. I think they do meet the criteria in that like.
[00:18:42] What a lovely day happens like at the end of this this whole action sequence that really defines that film really well and like makes you understand what you're in for. And I think it also reflects that character really well.
[00:18:56] I've got one it's not a quote it's more of an expression. It's Tyree Skipson when he goes woo in any of his movies. Sure. I don't know.
[00:19:08] I think about this to watching the Meg the movies now like iconic quotes don't seem like happen as often because you know you always would have whether it's I mean you're talking about you know Terminator I'll be back. It seems like they don't really have.
[00:19:24] Yeah it's almost like like what a lovely day is a good example where I think part of why that one sticks out is because it was in the marketing so much that you heard it a lot you know.
[00:19:33] I am Iron Man I think is a really big one because it changed the whole dynamic of. Yeah absolutely I think it's a good yeah it defines that character really well is at a turning point like yeah absolutely I understood that reference. That's not a bad one.
[00:19:53] Can we get out of the Marvel movies though.
[00:19:55] I know well part of it is I'm trying to think of you know in order for it to do that it's got to be a movie that was really really popular and prolific and something that a lot of people saw and would reference.
[00:20:04] Why did you say that name. No if you're asking from that movie I'd say I think it'd be a bleed you will. Sure we'll yeah. Jason Momoa going yeah. There's anything great. You think more than one word.
[00:20:23] Yeah yeah that's all that's all that my attention span can allow for.
[00:20:28] I haven't raised the exclamation there's like good ones in dramas but like not in the past five years like if you talked about the past 10 years like I'd say stuff from no country for a man or there's something like the hunger games are after myself as tribute I think is.
[00:20:42] That's why it's a big one even heard like the bird call I mean. May the odds be ever in your favor. Yeah something like that.
[00:20:52] Harry I wonder if it's partially that if you're going for the last five years it's hard to know simply because like you point out some good ones there that that are a little bit beyond that that yeah that time limit it's almost like you kind of need a little time for.
[00:21:08] Stuff to stick. I think give it a couple more years but like.
[00:21:13] In the milkshake milkshake is a pretty obvious one yeah I know it's another Marvel but give it a couple years and in the first Guardians when he says this is our chance to give a shit like.
[00:21:22] Hmm I mean you'd have to blur it but I like that one a lot. I don't think that's too it's not very iconic. I'm gonna think about this one. I mean Wakanda forever. That's a really good. That's a really good.
[00:21:36] It's all Marvel stuff because it's got it like I said it's got to be something that like what's something else that everyone saw guys. Yeah is there anything from get out is there anything Star Wars is I can't think of anything.
[00:21:48] Yeah well no get out is literally just the title of the show. Or or his friend going sex life. Yeah Star Wars is just not enough like. I think yes motherfucking a. Nope. I think it's Star Wars that all the iconic quotes are already there.
[00:22:08] Yeah so it's you know you know with you. I mean you could do the. When Leah and what is freaking Laura during characters name. Oh They're a little exchange in South Satan. No no no. Sorry I'm just thinking about how much I fucking hate the Internet this week.
[00:22:32] Yeah. Hold on something hold on hold on yeah hold on yeah gosh yeah. May force we by Saturday. Yeah yeah what a great character really dynamic and interesting fuck you people. I agree. Fuck you not you people. You know who I mean what do you mean you people.
[00:22:54] Yeah yeah that's all I'm gonna keep thinking about it the rest of this felt this this episode. Yeah it's hard because the five years is really narrow. Yeah yeah do another 10 years I'm the dude playing to do disguises another dude.
[00:23:05] Oh that's pretty good a lot of traffic that's a pretty good one there. Yeah I know I'm big ass. Not one you can put on the poster. You know I think something like you know what you mean you people. Yeah yeah that is pretty close.
[00:23:24] That's a good question because I should I read that I was thinking about it. I was going man I can't even get it's hard for me to get past the blockbusters because those are the ones that people remember them. Yeah mission accomplished from ghost protocol. Yes.
[00:23:41] No one's going to say that. I think something else popularized that one. Consciousness more. Yeah well was it was something that happened on a carrier. It was a man with white hair. That's all I remember. So Corrine if you're listening I'd be interested to hear what you think.
[00:23:59] Yes please. I would love to talk about this next week as a reminder so that way I can think about it all week and come up with some good ones.
[00:24:06] You know I mean it's older than five years because I even think you know if you're looking at Batman it's you know swear to me. Oh yeah swear to me is a good one. Yeah. You think dark joker said though. Yeah joker. Why so serious.
[00:24:22] That's the one thing. Yeah. But again a big part of the marketing as well right that's part of why it's in people's heads. I'd go for rises for one you merely adopted the dark or like the fire rises. Sure just little like things he says.
[00:24:39] Yeah it's just not. You can't hear him through the mask. 90% of people heard that as. You could do you could do a jack sparrow and like where's the like the rum is gone. Oh the rum is gone. Yeah that's a good one. I've got a job dead.
[00:24:55] Oh yeah I mean as savvy I mean he says that all the time. Yeah what about a Deadpool I feel he's said enough that he says too many things maximum effort. Oh man baby arm. I think it's maximum effort the most.
[00:25:12] Creed won everything I've got has moved on and I'm here. Yeah yeah it's just like that's one where like. When do you say that. Like toys to you guys every day. Toys 3 3. Funny toy story. Sure I feel like so long partner.
[00:25:27] Oh but some of those are 20 years old. Yeah. Oh five years. Yeah you're right. Like my bad. God I feel like there's something in these are 20 years old. There's something in Zootopia or like some kind of Disney like animated film that's coming up. Let it go. I mean.
[00:25:46] Oh yeah that's right. Shoot that's within her five year mark too. Yeah. Wow. Yeah that's a good question. Was I supposed to let him die maybe. Man of steel. I like him and cost. Yeah. Anyways let's start off with some real news. Okay. It's real news.
[00:26:15] So movie is changing. There's stuff again. Okay great. I was gonna say how angry do we want to start off. Movie pass is continuing to go downhill. So all right a couple of different things. One it is now only two movies at a time.
[00:26:30] Yeah and you can always pick specific specific ones. Right. And I guess everyone got the option of slender man so I guess Sony is paying. Movie pass. Yeah. Advertise. Interesting. It's almost like they're desperate for money. Also making it clear that there.
[00:26:51] They're you know database of all this amazing data that is is going to be so great for film. You know they've decided they're gonna start making movies.
[00:27:00] And the best thing to do is to make just some shitty Bruce Willis action film which is clearly their data is great. Really directing them to make amazing choices. They are so in trouble now that every headline they have is bad and you can't.
[00:27:16] Yeah they have will have never had any goodwill. It's almost like we were right in this business model. Man go back to our episode a year ago. They need to survive long enough to make Goddy too. That's all I want.
[00:27:29] Make a sequel to the worst thing I've seen this year. We're gonna. Here this here's a here's maybe a good piece of news that will transition into all of the hate news. So the CW has cast Ruby Rose as Batwoman in the silly Arrowverse thing.
[00:27:47] Sorry not silly people love that thing but it seems silly to me. But anyway so Batwoman is going to show up and Ruby Rose is awesome. And that woman's a hell of a character.
[00:27:56] She might get her own show they haven't said for sure but clearly she's gonna like pop up in one of the other shows. And then if everybody loves her they'll make give her her own show.
[00:28:02] I have some issues with Batgirl that Batwoman shows up and she's really fun. So I started going back and reading when she so she actually shows up in the 40s or 50s in Batman. But they kind of redid her recently in Detective Comics.
[00:28:18] And it's a run of like nine issues where it's just her. And so it's Batwoman in Detective Comics. And it's pretty awesome. I recommend everybody check it out because it has like one issue is 20 years ago then the next issues. I think like 15 years ago.
[00:28:33] And so it just traces her steps. It's pretty sweet. That's cool. And the arts amazing and the writing really gets by Greg Rocca. Then it turns into shit news. I really love Ruby Rose. I think she's great. We will talk about her later in this episode.
[00:28:49] I don't think she's an amazing actress but I think she's fun. And she's cool to look at. Like you know my wife's haircut is your wife loves her hair. Yeah. I like the reference to that in the Meg but we'll get to that later because I've been.
[00:29:01] I didn't know who she was honestly. Yeah. I mean what movie is she in recently triple X the return. Yes triple X the return to the. Is the best film she's been in. She was also in Wicker or John Wick to. Yeah John Wick to that's right.
[00:29:15] Wicker John. No she's fun my wife really likes her. I mean I really don't anything about her. She got famous out of Orange is the new black. I mean my wife loves that show so that's where her hair got famous too. Yeah. So then she promptly left Twitter.
[00:29:30] Because basically since that announcement she's got nothing but hate because of course women are the worst. And not allowed to be on the Internet apparently. I. So I didn't even read what what are people saying about. Why is that woman so revered that. This woman who can't play.
[00:29:49] There's no argument there's no argument none of these people have any argument and it doesn't matter what it is. It is simply that they are sexist hate mongering assholes who don't deserve to be on the Internet. And they make everything in the world worse.
[00:30:02] You know this is a month after Kelly Marie Marie Tran left the left Instagram and deleted all of her stuff because of course the non Star Wars fans like the fake Star Wars fans who pretend that they want to remake the last movie basically just harassed her for months.
[00:30:21] I don't get that like that mentality never crosses my mind. Yeah it is despicable. It is. If you're one of those people just your stuff. Yeah yeah it's extremely frustrating and the thing that like literally I've just been mad about for the last like four hours.
[00:30:41] And the thing that sucks too is I mean before the social media goes far as back as Michael Keaton being his Batman. Yeah I mean he got bad press and everyone. We can all have a nice conversation about casting we don't like.
[00:30:54] We can all make our references to Heath Ledger and how great some of them end up being there is a big difference. We are not having a conversation about fans not liking casting.
[00:31:04] This is a conversation about men on the Internet hating women because they can and harassing them in ways that is completely inappropriate and should not be tolerated because this isn't about fancasts. Because they can hide behind a digital screen that they control. Yeah exactly it's anonymous.
[00:31:19] It is an anonymous bullying. Yeah it is shameful behavior that has nothing to do with you being a fan and if you pretend like it is you just need to stop being a part of this community. I agree. Like you make us all look bad.
[00:31:32] Anyway well said I mean nobody can make me look any more. Oh that's no no no no no you look so much better than these like fucking ass clown dog shit human beings who honestly I would punch in the neck as hard as I can. I don't know.
[00:31:48] Donald Trump's face I did try to steal Christopher Plummer's two paid last week so yeah the no the like seriously you are a a nine and a half on a on a level out of 10 that they are a negative four like these the span between you and these fucking nonhumans is not even like
[00:32:08] like measurable.
[00:32:10] There's a story coming up later on though where I have zero empathy or sympathy for the Star Wars fans were practicing hate right now but there's a story coming up that we're going to talk about and one of their dreams could come true if everything was to come to pass but we'll get to it in a second.
[00:32:28] Great I don't know if I have that one here. So hey do you want to talk about Spider-Man real quick Ryan. Sure I want to talk about things that don't make me angry.
[00:32:37] Well that's too bad though because we're actually going to talk about like the complete Sony everything but Spider-Man universe that they're building. I talked to Andrew about this earlier this week. And was this supposed to be like gritty R rated nonsense.
[00:32:51] Oh oh that's wait till there's there's like so much silly not Spider-Man news. So here's the thing is Morbius isn't predicated on Spider-Man. Wait wait. I didn't know about the Morbius thing. I'm talking about something else. What are you talking about.
[00:33:08] Are you talking about all the movies they're making. Yes. Oh OK. He's not predicated on Spider-Man. He's a doctor who has a blood disease. He uses a vampire bat to cure it. He turns into a vampire. You can make a movie out of that. Black cat.
[00:33:26] You can make a movie out of a thief who steals. Who's a world renowned thief and gets cut. You can make movies out of this stuff. Maybe. How do we get to jackpot. So the other one is Silver Sable where they basically the news this week
[00:33:41] is they took the silver and black movie they were making which kind of sounded like a thing you could pitch where Silver Sable and Black Cat are like on in some kind of romp adventure thing and you're going
[00:33:52] to introduce these two sexy lady movies that of course all of the internet will hate me no matter you know what unless you cast those people as men you know they will hate it. But basically because their whole argument will be oh my God unless
[00:34:06] you cast them as men they won't be sexy enough like you're you're going to whatever PC my characters even though both those characters are kind of embarrassing to look at on paper. So they took those movies and broke them into two which means
[00:34:18] that their original story didn't matter I guess. You know I'm reading that Sony right now feels like DC to me where they have all these characters and they're like we're just gonna throw. So with DC you have characters people give a shit about.
[00:34:32] No I mean you have Jackpot. Yeah. So one of the movies is Jackpot which is basically like an alternate universe where MJ becomes a superhero. Oh no my friend. Right. No so in brand new day there is a red haired super super powered person because remember now Spider-Man.
[00:34:52] This is already good when you started with. So in brand new day some really great Sony Canon they're going to care about. Spider-Man remember Spider-Man made a deal with the devil. Right yeah great days great time. So Spider-Man makes a deal with the devil and devil snaps
[00:35:06] his fingers and he says no no one remembers who you are your marriage to Mary Jane is didn't exist. So then this red haired woman started showing up and calling spy Spider-Man hey Tiger and you hit the jackpot so basically just saying oh remember those
[00:35:25] iconic lines that you like from that one panel and I'm like a long time ago beautiful panel. Yeah great introduction of the character. Right but you're making a whole character anyways it turns out that the original lady who had had cancer and she died
[00:35:37] and then her niece or I don't even fucking remember the story takes over the mantle of it and people thought it was Mary Jane so no she looks like Mary Jane says Mary Mary Jane stuff and I think she had like a little
[00:35:50] spin-off thing but I never read them because none of these films are going to get made right probably not okay good we said that about them though. Well okay you're right. I don't know I was reading that Sony owns 900 Marvel
[00:36:03] characters so there's a chance some of them will probably get me because I also heard they're circling like Craven the Hunter which that's right they own spider that would be so dude as Spider-Man better show up in the animated Spider-Man movie.
[00:36:16] It would be so disappointing if they go and fuck up Craven the Hunter before Marvel gets a chance to. I was talking to Andrew about this what they should what Marvel should do and so they have Mysterio in this next one coming up the next Marvel Spider-Man movie
[00:36:28] should be Craven's last hunt. Yeah and just say hey we're going to use Craven maybe not use him as because again so Craven the only reason he shows up is because he hunts Spider-Man because he's tired of hunting lions and tigers
[00:36:42] and bears on my and giraffes and that's a cool sound in movie so yeah so he comes to America to hunt Spider-Man because Spider-Man is superior to everything and the Craven's last hunt is he wants to prove that he's superior to Spider-Man.
[00:36:57] Right so he's superior Spider-Man that's what we all want. Oh God that's what I just heard Ryan say he wants to superior Spider-Man. But also to piggyback off the R rated venom he's never been R rated in the comics so I don't know what people.
[00:37:13] Well I mean other than the fact that he looks like a horror show I'm like I'm just referring to the bold claim they made early on. Well people are upset that they promised an R rated venom. Who they. When did this happen exactly.
[00:37:26] And why did you believe them. What I what I always say too is I've said thousands of times venom is not that cool. No you watch that trailer and it's like OK yeah you made this heavy metal looking movie and there's literally like all these jokes that just
[00:37:47] dropped flat. There's a really funny meme where it's so it's venom and then it cuts to the like the the robber guy and he's like I forget what he says in the trailer but it's Toby McGuire's face is like superimposed on he's crying and then
[00:38:06] the venom symbiote like goes away and it's Dikovic from the first Spider-Man it's just rent. That's funny. Like part of the venom saga I've enjoyed but venom is not. He's not an R rated superhero. I hate to break it to people. We'll see. I like Tom Hardy.
[00:38:27] And I always I tell people I'm always so torn on it because we do have a model here we're going to see every movie it could be good. There's some cool looking stuff in it. I think it's just that the trailer is not great.
[00:38:39] I just think it's really cool to have that on a level. If you look at it on a level to the the location. They release the first trailer when it wasn't ready and then they didn't show venom. So the next day or is that we'll look at
[00:38:57] show a lot of them and then he was really cool the animation. Yeah I just think the character of it doesn't like the fact that there's for so yeah I mean that's that's mining the great character that is venom from
[00:39:12] amazing spider-man like 312 where he tells spider-man he's gonna eat his brains someone should intercut clips from the upgrade trailer into the venom trailer because they're both like talking to a person inside their head that'd be really good only that's really that trailer plays really well you
[00:39:29] don't need our rated stuff if it's done well yeah all right now let's just get at it so James Gunn is I don't know how much you guys talked about this last
[00:39:40] week I'm sure you did no no okay but we did the week before okay so it's in the news now steel because him getting fired off of Guardians of the Galaxy 3 in my opinion is terrible and very undeserved especially I was thinking about it
[00:39:56] today I the closest analogy I can come up with what did he what what do you tweet that was so bad I mean they're 10 years old so you dig really far back yeah
[00:40:05] they've already been deleted at this point so how do you left him well yeah I don't know I keep on clicking on like the articles where he got fired to see if like posting them some like whoever whoever exposed them quote unquote put
[00:40:17] like a collage of them somewhere I read a few of them they're like they're not funny this is like they're like they're provocative like yeah well it's who he was 10 years ago almost like it was written by a guy who worked for
[00:40:29] trauma right like Disney knew who they hired I was thinking about this today although the closest metaphor I can come up with is this is like if you had an affair and like went to your pastor at church and he helped you through it
[00:40:41] and you he helped you to like fix your marriage and all of this and stop doing these terrible things and then when you were all done the pastor was like oh but you can't come to church here because you we know you used to
[00:40:51] have an affair like Disney's the one that changed his career like he was the guy who was making PG porn and the next thing you know like they hired him out of that like true they knew who he was and then we're like we're gonna give you
[00:41:06] a shot which was brilliant and he made amazing films it's not like he was hiding who he used to be like so I guess he's fired because he made a joke yeah he's fired it's it's the same thing that has been happening where
[00:41:18] it's like everybody is very sensitive to like you know who like it doesn't accept the fact that people are allowed to change especially over long periods of time and and especially in a case like this where it's things you said it's
[00:41:31] not he didn't this isn't he didn't rape someone 10 years ago this isn't like all of the other stuff that has come out but it's certainly a sensitivity by a company like Disney to make sure that they represent
[00:41:44] themselves well but again you knew it when you hired him it this isn't something that came out where all of a sudden you're like oh well we didn't know he used to work for trauma and be like a provocateur like you knew it's
[00:41:56] it's it's mudslinging back and forth especially after the whole Ruzan situation that's that's a lot of what this is even if there's no direct connection that could be fair I mean it is it is certainly linked to a lot
[00:42:08] of sensitivity where like you at this time don't want to be seen as supporting somebody who has terrible views but at the same time like you already did like stand by the guy that you said hey we're gonna give you a
[00:42:22] shot like oh yeah no I mean like the only thing that I could say in Disney's defense is like because of the family image but even that doesn't really fly with me anymore simply because of the fact that like yo and Star Wars yo Marvel
[00:42:41] yeah like they're not necessarily adult like products but like Disney also I'm assuming produces part of the Marvel shows at least in some capacity the Punisher show is full of violence and like yeah like that you the argument
[00:42:55] doesn't hold up anymore the way it might have say 20 years ago right still had some with trauma on their resume yeah and that's the other thing like you didn't hire this guy without looking at his IMDB page like not even
[00:43:07] not even that but just like slither like you can you can watch slither and know that this guy is like a bit like on edge is the man who has worked or super super
[00:43:17] yeah super is full of shit there is a reason why we were all amazed when Disney hired a man who had worked with the porn star Sasha Gray like actually multiple porn stars for that matter right like we knew who you knew this I
[00:43:31] know I know when they dropped that news years ago I was like oh okay right like wool and it was a brilliant move anyway the reason it's in the news is they are apparently theoretically still working with his script and there's a lot of
[00:43:44] people on Marvel who are pushing really hard in support of him to get Disney to put a letter out saying yeah yeah David Jesus said he might quit yeah which honestly if I that would be my I feel strongly enough about this that I would
[00:43:59] if I were them I would strongly consider it too I mean I think you you are making a colossal misstep in the direction of those films to to remove that guy and like also he's getting feeling he's fielding other offers from other
[00:44:11] studios and you have a very short window because everybody knows how much that guys were and and also because of the fact that Disney hired him after the fact of these tweets he like he didn't breach his contract so they
[00:44:23] have to pay him out seven to ten million dollars yeah so like I don't it's a really dumb move yeah I don't know who I don't know who decided this was the right choice without really thinking through how the name is Alan Horn and
[00:44:37] Bob Iger I'm not saying they're bad business men or bad studio heads I'm just saying like they I think they're reacting because they were they were probably expecting that like this was going to come up and and be a big
[00:44:48] deal and they thought that the reaction would be the opposite way then like people would be mad at this guy and they're probably fair to think that right we've seen a lot of people where things like this have come up and you
[00:45:00] know people have gotten in a lot of trouble for it I would say they jumped the gun there's a there there is a side hilarious story to all this is that fans are petitioning for a relatively unknown director named James
[00:45:23] Gunn Berger to be hired and it's just James Gunn in a mustache is amazing I was like one of my favorite things I saw on the internet I think that that Ryan Johnson's reaction to delete all of his past tweets is a really
[00:45:35] intelligent statement about how stupid this whole thing is because the idea that you're going to hold somebody and we've seen it before right it happened to that lady who used to cook with butter right like right like it happens
[00:45:48] all the time where people who may have said or or even done terrible things not where there are victims obviously there's a big difference between doing something that has a victim and just saying something that you know is
[00:46:00] inflammatory yeah where somebody said something or had opinions many years ago and has changed I can't believe Twitter is 10 years old well in this case it was I think it just so it was 2012 so technically six years ago I
[00:46:15] remember when the dude who invented Twitter was on the Colbert rapport and trying to pitch 140 characters to Stephen Colbert his character and he's Colbert thought it was the dumbest thing you ever had I have it on the best of
[00:46:28] the Colbert rapport on DVD it's really funny and you see how it is now it's yeah everybody's on it okay I'm gonna fly through a couple of quick little things just so we move on a cabway ninja Viking was like basically
[00:46:40] canceled a month before it started filming so that's too bad I love the name of it but I heard it's ripped issues so yeah work on it come back yeah if Chris prep cares that much you will get it done speaking of Chris's both of them
[00:46:54] have maybe dropped out of Star Trek 4 because of wanting to get paid which might be fair because both those guys have become worth a lot of money since they check checkmate have that money it's interesting I read an article
[00:47:09] about it on the did you read our Hollywood reporter article no cuz they broke the story so yeah it's because they both look at themselves as A Listers which they are yeah so they definitely say Chris Hemsworth is yeah
[00:47:22] and so well now Chris pine to though I mean he's the new Wonder One movie so he's in demand oh yeah and for a lot of money and the studio Paramount doesn't want to make a Star Trek movie for too much money and they're concerned by
[00:47:35] giving all these actors this money that is gonna balloon the budget we're the last Star Trek movie only only made three hundred eighty five million dollars worldwide yeah but I don't care like they probably to be fair they didn't
[00:47:50] care though they'll come back and like remember Robert Downey Jr. had this problem after Avengers like are we gonna make another movie with Robert Downey Jr. and I think Kevin Feige said yeah we just back the Brinks truck
[00:48:02] up to his house and he said yeah I mean I mean Paramount to my remembrance didn't do a very good job of promoting beyond no and so that's kind of on them yeah it's you know cuz we I remember talking about it how sabotage
[00:48:15] was in the trailer and a lot of people didn't understand yeah why it was in there but then you see the movie and it's totally badass yeah but it like misled them I guess we already like it was like a spoiler but not a spoiler
[00:48:28] something about Chris Pines voice I love it he has like a sexiest voice yeah that's really good yeah I'll figure out you know his dad played Jim Halperts dad on the office really yeah it's awesome huh funny I hear he's a real
[00:48:41] sweetheart yeah you know so I'm already know a lot of those a lot of those I don't read too many like people who are in the Marvel movies that are not cool yeah because they fire him Edward Norton turns our turn tower
[00:48:58] it's a cool Don Cheetol is way better last piece of Marvel and then the wasp is apparently going to be the last movie that Netflix gets to stream after that they will all they will all be on our happy little Disney streaming channel
[00:49:12] which which we will end up getting why am I working so hard to buy all these blue these Disney blu rays on the Disney movie club when I'm going to just have access to a lot of that because you're a man who cares you
[00:49:25] don't like interrupted connections and yeah and the fact that it's not no carry out for 30 seconds be really honest about this is because I'm a materialistic collector and I like having everything here that's really the reason here's why I tell my wife it's literally because I want physical
[00:49:39] copies of it because just like Netflix just like Hulu and even the Disney streaming service are they always gonna have everything on there no you're right and I take it away when they don't want it I'm saving it for the
[00:49:50] apocalypse I'm just saying like if if the if if Netflix goes down because if Netflix is down because the internet goes down or if my streaming copies that are on like Amazon or whatever are inaccessible because the internet goes
[00:50:02] down I have a much bigger problem in my life no yeah no that's what I mean it's I just and to I think that the bit rates way better when you watch it and well yeah there is no there's no question about it oh yeah I was at
[00:50:16] the internet's down and you want to watch a copy of Mad Max Beyond Thunder Dome well you're gonna have to go into my real Thunder Dome in order to get a
[00:50:21] copy are you listening ladies no no no no no no I met like two dudes have to fight to the death because I'm assuming it's dude want to watch how you backtracked that really bad and in silly news I I'm just so excited for Brad to basically
[00:50:37] say who cares the Oscars announced this week oh they amounts to a bunch of dumb things but tell him say the big one that they're they're gonna limit the telecast of three hours because sure short speeches are always what we wanted whatever they're they're also going to
[00:50:52] add a popular film category I don't know how you define that category I don't either so yeah when I hear that it's for them and their pretentiousness to have a category where you can take a film like Black Panther and say even though
[00:51:06] it's all the critics love it all the audiences love it it's not Oscar worthy so we're gonna put it in this popular culture one where it still wins an Oscar but it's not gonna real win a real Oscar you should just call it other best
[00:51:18] film like other best right up the runner up but all different five films I hope that because they've allowed so many more young people into the academy that they'll just vote Black Panthers number one movie anyways they said it does
[00:51:33] qualify for both categories so there's that well there and they're slowly rolling out what the what the specifications of that category are gonna be but like the thing was like the moment that broke like every like Hollywood reporter outlet like when bananas report visits in a room like
[00:51:51] this with a bunch of old white dudes going we're snappers like them comic book movies and they're not watching the Oscars I really want to make a sketch of you playing an old Academy member the other old white guys like a town right
[00:52:05] don't have enough we gotta get on to watch this and then so they say oh popular was an achievement in popular film I think is the fucking name of the what's this movie get out I don't get you get out yeah there's no way we can have
[00:52:20] a horror film about slavery being included in the best pictures it points out all the things I supported back in Civil War times basically where the old dude from matic van dyke and Mary Poppins the important thing to
[00:52:37] remember here is like they're doing this to sell commercials during the silly show well like none of this makes me so outside of the popular category though like the issue I have with a three hour telecast like not that shorter
[00:52:49] time is a bad thing but they're talking about editing down speeches on like smaller categories I mean you really need to see a speech about the best animated short no but no I don't which is why I don't watch the Oscars
[00:53:01] no but at the same time that's that's a nice moment for them they get and they now they don't get that the truth is they're just best American film the truth is you know what I would like them to edit out a lot of the masturbatory videos
[00:53:16] about movies how good they are I'd like to not have to see trailers for all the movies that are we're big that week how about we only have someone stand there list announcements and let people have speeches and stop filling it with all
[00:53:28] this other bullshit like I got the musical numbers yeah music numbers and I'm gonna dance two hours of what are you wearing that happens beforehand because that part's pretty sexist and stupid like there's plenty of things
[00:53:41] you could do to make it better plus Joan Rivers is dead so it's not funny anymore is it ever funny then either if they brought out our coffin has opened it up there oh my god I'm dead Jeff Jeff Dunham go yes don't bring
[00:53:59] Joan Rivers near Jeff Dunham one's pretty great it's Joan Rivers she was the better one um no I'll show it she's funnier than Jeff Dunham will ever be um I'd say that's problem let's be honest Ryan is what he's probably
[00:54:14] heavy quantify that because Jeff Dunham's a racist puppet master and Joan Rivers was a funny woman who was in spaceballs so that was a five right yeah yeah um anyway um but no like on that on that's a key some scale of negative
[00:54:28] four to nine and a half uh but the popular category thing though like I mean like this could be the academy honestly just like shooting ideas at the wall and seeing what's six like they're they might be literally trial running this
[00:54:43] because they haven't set qualifications for it they don't know what exactly yeah qualifies you for that category and so like they might literally just be like throwing it at the wall and seeing if it sticks I know what they've been
[00:54:55] doing for the last like five years yeah I remember when the dark night was gonna win an Oscar they better backtrack before they actually hand it out because if they if they handed out this year but then don't do it next year it's
[00:55:06] like whoever wins that Oscar's like here's the only one of these got the only fake Oscar that they ever gave away transformers it's made of chocolate oh god how abysmal would it be if the thing that won was like fucking trash
[00:55:20] like if the Meg sorry but what if what if what if 47 meters down to the next chapter title of that movie I certainly can't I certainly can't considering that I know how the first one ends um yeah what they do go to like just popular
[00:55:41] is based on gross cuz no one actually bothers to watch the movies they just check a box and yeah I'm assuming it's kind of what they did that's what some people do in the voting process anyway if you read and listen to all these like
[00:55:52] awards chatters they don't even like some people don't even see the movies they just fill out their ballot because they're obligated to because of its a it's an academy thing and I would certainly hate if it became the
[00:56:01] people's choice awards and basically like the winner this year was Avengers which probably isn't as good as the dark night let's all be honest like great movie and I love it but like they're not the dark night but they're not as good
[00:56:15] as as Black Panther like I'm just saying there's a really good chance that like it ends up being some silly people's choice of what I think here's the only reason I want to see if this pans out my theory like you know how the
[00:56:27] Star Wars fans for some reason want George Lucas back this is the oh no it's all the Star Wars fans and I don't think there's any yes right I'm sorry the angry people seem to want him back yes so this is how he
[00:56:42] gets like he goes up to he goes up to Kathleen Kennedy and JJ go hey I know you're making up a certain nine let me do it but my name on it that's how he gets
[00:56:49] his Oscar no sincerely because that's the only way he's gonna fucking do it he's been shafted he was shafted all the time I've done award no he totally no no they're they're angry I mean they won't yeah yeah a lot of people
[00:57:02] before you get also Michael Bay it's the only way Michael Bay get okay now I'm on board yeah but what does he get it for is the thing the rock retroactively yeah well no pain and gain then no yes no yes being in how can we put the
[00:57:18] difference oh shit yeah here's the movies that are coming out on Blu-ray this week DVD release for your consideration rampage tomorrow on Blu-ray is Avengers Infinity War on 4k and everything else and if you go to Best
[00:57:41] Buy you can get a cool seal book where he's got a big fist Thanos yeah big fish big fish because they're doing the subtitles releases the other ones that they would do the purple poster yeah all three would match but yeah yeah James
[00:57:59] big fist is the foreign title right no that's that's gonna be the title of Avengers 4 big fist snapping fingers dude yeah it's Avengers big fist war there's a funny article going around the internet today where Thor's roommate
[00:58:13] survived yes and of course that's like the only real movie coming out this week on Blu-ray because of course well no I'm gonna get to all the other stuff I'm just saying like there's almost nothing else from this year because no one
[00:58:28] wanted to go against that wouldn't pull tooth next week yeah it is yeah so Outlaw Star the complete series which is the only time that I will intentionally talk about anime on this show okay but it's really good that's a good show
[00:58:41] with some cat people in it and some space robots and stuff you know I think I saw that was called avatar actually yeah yeah actually yes avatar did steal some stuff from Outlaw Star you're right hmm like James Gunn likes to
[00:58:51] steal or not James Gunn James Cameron likes to steal things okay I didn't put these in order of what was more fun to talk about so anyway let's see Arrow has got Terry Gilliam's Tide Land out this week which is cool poster oh Tide
[00:59:05] Land's pretty interesting god damn there's so many friggin shout factory releases okay let's go to the mall we will we will I'm gonna get through some other stuff first from Arrow they also have what have they done to your
[00:59:20] daughters on Blu-ray love the name of late that's an Italian horror film I can tell by the name well and the fact that the murderer is clearly like a motorcycle driver in a full black yes jumpsuit like that's a very Italian
[00:59:34] looking villain for some reason that title also sounds like a lifetime movie too yeah it does yeah it's pizza goes brother this week on lifetime what have they done to your daughter pizza ghost brother really good oh pizza
[00:59:50] ghosts man shit and then from from AGFA this week is Lady Street Fighter oh which it's just actually putting it out yeah yeah it is so okay here we go into the chapter releases first up is the unborn which looks like a movie about
[01:00:16] a killer fetus having a baby can be a real scream I added the real because of course that's a better tagline it's actually just having a baby can be a scream was there he made like in the early yeah the Odette yes then there
[01:00:29] is her name is now a debt Annabelle thank you very much no she always be us but us I know when she had a career her name was a debt Odette yes man oh mean you'll add people will remember the unborn film because the poster was
[01:00:46] basically just her ass staring into very yeah yeah very similar to like a what was that other shitty horror movie where the girl gets raped and then kills everybody I spent on your grave I spent on your grave where it's just
[01:00:59] come look at this woman's ass which at least that one was like at least see with the unborn it's not really creepy because it's a movie about rape like having a really awful poster like that and then having it be about rape is
[01:01:11] really terrible like shame on those people anyway the howling is getting a steel book from shout factory scanning yeah the steel books from shower factories cool yeah the howling three ones really awesome yeah but I mean I
[01:01:23] already own them I'm not gonna get them again but they're also putting out I'll save that one for second to last life force yep and I got my 87 is on my list yeah does does does this cut does this steel book edition of life force
[01:01:38] does it come with a copy or a recording of the how I met or how did this get made episode on the disc I do know it's another new scan and it's including the the two different cuts the two different cuts which they lost the
[01:01:50] rights to oh after a while so it's actually a really cool looking like I actually got a order the lady show the creepy blue lady is sucking all the life force out of the old guy really walks around naked just because I don't
[01:02:02] want to pay $80 for the one that's on me yeah yeah yeah I like life force it's the howling one that's a cool still book yeah it's a cool looking yeah yeah yeah the cover is really great return to the living dead part to you yes I am
[01:02:16] from shop I freaking flipped out on Amazon because so that shipped to me at 3495 mm-hmm and so I sent an email to Amazon I said if you guys are gonna do this like you did with Disney shit then I'll just stop ordering shout factory
[01:02:31] from you know order from their website and get it two weeks early and not have to deal with this stupid you're not marking it down because you're in a fight was luring my email to them yeah later that day I get a call from like this
[01:02:41] one one one wondering what the fuck is this to Amazon oh shit and they go hey we got these calls you yeah they said we got your email or concerned about I said well I said here's the gig as I get prime and I pre-order stuff
[01:02:54] because I want it to drop in price right in the mouth of madness I got for I think 13 bucks because they said well you know it's how popular the title is I said I understand that and I understand that maybe not every title is gonna be
[01:03:05] a huge seller I said but I've already pre-ordered a few things coming out in the next couple months and they haven't dropped in prize so I don't want to make sure it's not a little bitch fight that you're having with
[01:03:14] shout factory where you're not going to drop the prices like I can't pre-order my Disney stuff did you actually say bitch fight oh yeah basis to Jeff Bezos I wish and the guy that this is on the phone yeah the guy was really
[01:03:25] nice he on the other side he said I understand your frustration and I get that so I'm gonna go ahead and credit your account $25 oh shit yeah so thank you Amazon I was right so what we've learned is everyone needs to write an
[01:03:39] email say Amazon every time you order anything and you'll get 20 argument that because like you could just go to their website and buy it for cuz factory their first week of release it's cheaper exactly so right now in
[01:03:49] shout factory return living debt to is $22 it's $35 on Amazon but you do have to do over $50 to get the free shipping and that's fine but the difference in price isn't the cost of shipping exactly so I told us so what's the point of me
[01:04:03] having prime and ordering from you you've risen the price up the price of prime now it now yeah I can't order Disney stuff from you because you're in a huge fight with Disney right and now you're gonna are you gonna fight
[01:04:15] with scream factory might just tell me and I'll cancel all my pre-orders and I'll just order them off shout factories website yeah think I was like no no no they'll go down I promise okay well October I had that issue with I pre-ordered
[01:04:26] in the mouth of madness and then I got a notification saying it was out of stock which I'm like well the thing's releasing today how is it out of stock because it was supposed to have then processed and then shipped to me like
[01:04:39] within two days of it being released cuz I did the pre-order a little late yeah but and then like and so I was like well then screw it I'm just gonna go get
[01:04:47] it off of shout scrap shout site and when I went back to double check the price they brought it back up to $34 in stock I'm like no and then I waited two more days they brought it down back to 21 9 yeah and it's it's just and it's just
[01:05:01] I don't really piss at Amazon too because so the Spider-Man game that's coming out you can't pre-order it on there really you can't get the collect decision you can't order their standard edition and they've never said why
[01:05:11] yeah and it's because I mean I know why is because they get in fights with these companies and I mean they've done it constantly yeah so what's the point of having an Amazon account when you can't get the shit you want and I can get it
[01:05:21] cheaper from another company very fair and I told them and I mean I wasn't mad at the guy I was just asking him I was like fuck you Steve Bezos yeah I was asking like if it's gonna be that way then I'm not gonna order him
[01:05:33] from you you're right and guys cool as my brother Jeff anyways and last indefinitely not least I will say this week from shop for the living dead part two is not worth 34 well good cuz it's 34-25 just one no I thought it was a
[01:05:49] dough no it's just it's really fun yeah this week from shop factory in a beautiful steel book army of darkness yeah mm-hmm which I'm not getting I already own it if they if they actually what yeah if they actually had
[01:06:06] I'm new features or a new scan of the film or they had a 4k version of it then when they already put out is pretty awesome yeah different package oh yeah
[01:06:15] I mean I have that but did you see evil dead in 4k yeah and evil dead too but they this is just if this is just a blue version right yeah so if they added a
[01:06:25] 4k disc to it then I'm doing be getting it but right now and I like the I mean the original shop factory it's cool it's like a painted cover it's cool as a reverse of art yeah but if you don't have it the steel book is definitely
[01:06:38] cool so get it always support Sam Raimi they just announced steel books for in the mouth that they're gonna do in the mouth of madness as well as the thing yeah so you could now get the entire apocalypse trilogy in the steel book so
[01:06:51] I'm threat I'm tempted to take those and controls I they announced those ones and the first response is she's just double dipping and scream factory comes on says it's just for people that miss at the first time their limited edition
[01:07:08] you don't have to buy them right but I can't control myself you know like just listen to any interview those guys who work at shop factory do on the shockwave podcast they may are nice sweet people who are trying their
[01:07:23] hardest stop bitching at they make films for collectors yeah if you want the standard edition get it if you want the steel book get one of the 7000 they're making or don't care and at least be like me and admit that you're doing it because
[01:07:35] you're a materialistic collector and not because there's a rational argument don't tell my wife yep Brooks I got candy man as it's known like I can't pre-order that yet on Amazon I can't pre-order a
[01:07:50] couple of them but if you pre-order it on screen or shop factor calm you get a poster I know and I told my I can get two weeks early to you were telling me I like this argument I've been thinking about it you were telling me
[01:07:59] that like you're intentionally going back and rewatching a lot of the blue yeah I'm just still like so I don't want to admit how many blue rays I own that I've never actually oh yeah it's bad like it's bad like I have I found one
[01:08:14] like last week as a girl is still in the wrapper you know what's really bad is the TV shows and I don't own that many TV shows on blu-ray but when I really look at it like there's a handful of them that I own that I've
[01:08:25] never watched the blue rays that I just buy them because I really need to have them yeah but I don't really need it was really just to prove my wife wrong I'm like I watch more than once well my justifications are always silly right so
[01:08:37] I keep looking at like show you I keep looking at like the Avatar the last airbender blu-ray which I have all the DVDs mm-hmm but I'm like tube for 30 bucks I can get all of them in one beautiful blu-ray and then that way
[01:08:49] you know like when I eventually have kids and then they need to watch that show they'll get to watch it in full beautiful blu-ray they need to watch it no wait yes they do so blu-ray well I'll give you an argument for you I was
[01:09:06] reading the review of that on blu-ray.com and they say it's definitely worth the upgrade oh my god I bet it is because the DVDs don't look great yeah that shows gorgeous there's been legend of coral looks amazing on blu-ray
[01:09:17] yeah I don't have the same issue with like like stuff that's still in it's wrapping but unwrap it I'm not even oh my god or unopened but the stuff that I get from like work and whatnot like there's a bunch of them I still need to
[01:09:31] go through like I still haven't seen the movie spy yet and I need to watch that so yes so my wife now now her argument is so you've seen it twice which she's
[01:09:39] right but hey hey I mean one more than one did I talk about blood and lace well last week here's with no no yeah I watched it twice so for my scream factory crypt blood and black lace blood and lace so there's two movies
[01:09:58] hey this is what we've been watching so yeah this is the stuff we've been watching so for my scream factory crypt I watched blood and lace so I thought I was in the seas because I watched caged fury but then I realized that my kid
[01:10:14] moved my stuff out of alphabetical order the other day mm-hmm and I go man so I went back and I watched blood lace which was still in its wrapper teaching her kid the alphabet teaching your kid to unwrap the alphabet and he does I
[01:10:29] watched him spell things adorable DVDs back at order I know he doesn't know how to put them in order he just knows what the letters are I did put my hand up like why you little no my collection makes sense but he does alphabetical
[01:10:42] order on his so yeah I can't then go I caramba my wife doesn't think it does I say what time Robert any junior now the colder Tom cruise and your yours does not make anything after Jason Statham and Emily blend alphabetical
[01:10:55] order then it goes in normal alphabetical order anyways so I watched movie called blood and lace which is still in its wrapper is one of those scream factories remember when trades might was going out of business yep
[01:11:05] had like 75% off blue rays yeah is one that was always there and I didn't want to spend $22 on it because I'm I had a feeling it wasn't gonna be good so anyways I got it so the trades were price tag on it and so that at
[01:11:18] least makes sense that's a justifiable life yeah I bought this for super cheap and just never watch so for a screen factory crypto watch it twice because there's commentary on it so yeah I watched it twice in two days so yeah
[01:11:31] that got worn out on my Blu-ray player anyways blood and lace is a film that's gonna say why of course I am that's okay so do I just throw it over here whoa whoa whoa whoa that's what a top cruise is greatest films if you're we
[01:11:49] do not throw Aaron Sorkin in this house you did not know we can see it James is a good man Blu-ray across the room yeah yeah yeah yeah that's not the truth he tossed it as if though it was just garbage then he was like
[01:12:02] finished eating we all have this already you're obsolete you're gonna be an amazing parent thank you so blood and lace is a 1971 they call it a proto slasher so it's a kind of a slasher film but it doesn't like go all the way yeah
[01:12:22] it's okay so it's weird so in the film it opens actually opens kind of cool it opens with this killer entering this house and he has a hammer and so the hammer is always fixed on the camera so it's a tracking shot with the hammer and
[01:12:37] I'm like oh this is kind of cool I'm gonna see someone get murdered with a hammer because that the cover art for the movie is someone's it's to understand criminals yes I'm watching yeah so the cover art is this hooded dude who looks like the
[01:12:53] unabomber like having a hammer and it's like shock after shock and there's blood flying off the hammer yeah like oh there's gonna be a lot of hammer murders and so so great so the hammer goes into the bedroom and it starts
[01:13:06] killing these people and it's the worst like makeup effects I've ever seen so right away I'm taken out of the film because the blood looks not like ketchup but really red Kool-Aid I don't know how to describe it I love Kool-Aid
[01:13:20] yeah it's good so anyways does the camera then pull back and reveal that in a the shadow type way this is a movie about a murdering hammer that'd be awesome does he say it's hammer time before he kills that would be better
[01:13:34] the hammer has a little mouth on the side so we'll make a fake trailer with a guy who kills people with a hammer and you can spits like it's hammer time you can see the little fishing wire holds it up is it so anyways these people
[01:13:49] are murdered and it's this young woman's mother and her gentleman lover it's she's never known her okay this is a key point guys she's never known her father remember this that I told you this okay I'm gonna spoil this movie from
[01:14:02] so the hammers her father sweet so for I'm gonna spoil this movie from 37 years ago okay okay never met her father never met her father remember this is a point to keep so she meets this detective so this woman in this film is
[01:14:15] maybe 20 in real life and she's playing a 16 17 year old girl I mean she so her father is somewhere between the ages of like 38 and 48 exactly so the this detective is like 50 okay he's being written nice words like I'm sorry
[01:14:32] that your mom got murdered some people really yeah there they're there yeah I'm sorry your mom got murdered I'm gonna take you to this orphanage and then as orphanage there's also like a killer handyman and these kids who keep on
[01:14:43] running away they kill them but they wanted this really has nothing to do with the rest of the plot it's really weird so they kill him and they keep kids kill the handyman no the handyman kills the kids from when they run away
[01:14:53] oh the handyman can and so each kid that's this orphanage though that was good the lady who runs it gets 150 bucks from the state so all the pia all the is the 70s dollars we love killing these kids James just keeps paying me James
[01:15:11] you're trying to make sense of a shitty movie from 1970 it's like it's like when you adopt children and I guess you get like a supplement for the government but it's somehow for murder no no wait wait they don't know they're
[01:15:22] murdered so here's how so the kids are murdered the lady who runs it has a handyman put them in the freezer which is just a room that has a blue light in it they didn't have very much money I guess hey blues a cold color man it is
[01:15:35] so whenever the county inspector guys shows up they put the corpses back in like beds like oh there's Johnny he's in the infirmary so they can still get the 150 bucks and in the meantime this woman the young lady who's remember
[01:15:50] she's 1617 and doesn't know her father doesn't know her father thank you is trying to solve who murdered her mom and her gentleman lover it turns out the gentleman lover maybe didn't die but he got burnt up like Freddy Kruger style
[01:16:04] okay okay so he's still alive but he's like no no your father yeah exactly that's good and so then they cut to a scene where this detective is at a bar and he's talking about how he loves the 16 year
[01:16:18] old girl and he thinks he's the most beautiful thing in the world I'm like what in the fuck it really gross it was the 70s Ryan no it doesn't matter it's still wrong so at the end of the film Freddy Kruger guy shows up with
[01:16:31] a hammer and he fights the handyman who has a butcher knife it's too old time sorry that was a bad one when does the lace show up and so hammer guy kills meat cleaver guy who's the handyman okay and because the handyman guy is her dad
[01:16:51] no no no the handyman is not her dad the handyman guy is a guy who kills the kids no I know freezer but I'm wondering why her stepdad were why her future stepdad burn victim is killing the handyman with a cleaver so that that
[01:17:06] so remember the burn guys the gentleman lover right yeah her future stepdad so yeah so she kills wait is it the girls gentleman lover or the girls mom okay so it's our future stepdad okay I got you okay yeah so anyway she kills
[01:17:19] the handyman and then the the girl runs out to the orphanage and she tells everybody she says run away run away the killer's coming and they all look at her go we're not running away we get three meals and a cot something like that
[01:17:31] three hot to the cat yeah and so I made here yeah I made even though they kill us I mean you got it made small price to pay exactly hard knock life not really so she runs away Freddy Kruger is chasing her okay we'll call him Frank
[01:17:45] Kruger because it's really not Freddy so Frank Kruger is chasing her and she hides behind this bush where the first where the first kid was murdered by the handyman is rotting corpses there so she screams Frank Kruger shows up
[01:17:59] takes off the mask and he's like no no no I'm the detective wait wait wait wait so the the burn victim is not real yes the bird that the future father-in-law the future stepdad died in a fire he did and then he dressed up in a burned
[01:18:17] up mass but no the detective detective dresses up in a burned up shitty mission impossible mask of the dead future stepdad to scare her she says why because guess who really murdered them the daughter
[01:18:32] don't do wait the main character yeah so the main character murdered her mom and her gentlemen lover my oh that's kind of a cool twist in the shitty movie and then the detective says you know I don't have to tell anybody if you marry
[01:18:46] me and then wait what yeah yeah wait so who's her dad wait so her she's says well my mom always said that older men make great husbands the last line of the movie is that tech of says well you know about 18 years ago I made love to
[01:19:02] your mother and she said I was the first one who made love to her yeah so her dad just asked her to marry him yeah that's the end of the story of how I miss your father and the movie is garbage so don't don't watch blood and lace
[01:19:16] when does the lace show up it doesn't it doesn't so I should be I also watch predator and predator 2 and 4k predator looks amazing that's a great movie yeah and they a big complaint about predator in the blue rays they really
[01:19:30] cleaned it up digitally oh this time they did it they just scanned it from the negative to 4k so it looks really great great but I've never actually watched my Blu-ray of predator but the blu-ray in the set is still that is still
[01:19:42] that one yeah okay so predator 2 looks great too because the effects actually got better so like the invisible predator looks pretty good yeah I'm a movie and yeah I mean predator 2 is really weird yeah that's a boring the
[01:19:56] Jamaican drug lords and the Colombian drug lords yeah it's a movie with Donnie Danny Gleaver in it and then there's a predator yeah and I mean the parts of the predators awesome and it takes a lot of time for the predator
[01:20:07] to show up I like the part where it it makes us stew in that one lady sink yeah that part's cool yeah I could fix this chopped off arm it's basically Terminator yeah it's fun so those movies are really cool if you want to
[01:20:19] upgrade the predator alone is worth the upgrade yeah I think you buy predator separately if you don't want the other two movies okay cool that's really well I mean I don't know that I care about an upgrade on predators because I own
[01:20:30] predators already and but it's that's a fun movie I mean I think I got it for is like 34 bucks whatever I'm bummed a Zavi steel book art was really cool yeah it was really cool and I didn't talk about last week last thing I'll
[01:20:45] talk about but I watched Teen Titans go to the movies and it is super funny if you don't know what Teen Titans is it's a show on Cartoon Network I've never seen an episode I didn't go yeah I didn't know it was getting a movie until it came
[01:21:01] out yeah so I took my little boy because of my son he likes to go to movies that he loved rampage he loved Pacific Rim so I'll take him to go see Teen Titans go to the movies and you know something appropriate for this age
[01:21:13] range yeah and he laughed and the movies really weird and it's really dark at points huh so there's a point where the Robin says fuck you Batman no but I wish actually I think worse so so the kids and at the Teen Titans Robin wants
[01:21:30] his own movie but he can never get a movie because all the studios care about is Superman Batman and Wonder Woman so he goes you know what we need to do we need to go back in time and make sure they're not heroes and so they go okay
[01:21:40] so they get on their like trikes and they go back and I don't how they go back in time on their trikes they just do oh they go around the planet they're around the earth so many but backwards so they first they go to Batman and get the
[01:21:51] trikes 88 miles an hour yeah yeah yeah first I go see Batman as little Bruce Wayne and Tom and Martha Wayne as they're leaving the movie and they say why are you going down crime alley and they like do this shot and it's all
[01:22:03] these like bad guys stabbing people when happy streets right next door and it cuts over there's all these people singing and dancing and so they so they go down that alley and then they Robin disappears yeah no they
[01:22:17] know they just keep on so they do nice things to help them the first time well when they go back it's there's they're still there so then they go back a second time and kill them so they like push Bruce Wayne Thomas Wayne and
[01:22:31] Martha Wayne down crime I only and they get shot wow then they go to Aquaman and he's like this cute little like baby so he's like I can swim and they take those plastic six pack things you get coax on and they throw it in the
[01:22:43] water he drowns wow and it's so funny and I'm like oh my god they just basic it's not like great but it's really funny and will our net plays death stroke which he's just known as Slade in this and they just keep on calling
[01:23:00] him Deadpool and his superpower is he distracts them he goes I mean I want to happen but what's that over there they all look and he like runs away it's stupid but it's pretty brilliant and it and like the songs are really fun in it
[01:23:16] you should definitely go see Teen Titans go to the movies cool if it's still out I want to see it this week yeah especially if you're a fan of comic book movies they kind of make fun of them and it's great and it cages Superman
[01:23:29] so it's pretty funny too nice yeah that's why I watch this week Zach not a lot this week I at Best Buy I picked up the it's a live trilogy from Screen Factory because they they took ten bucks off of what it is online anywhere that's
[01:23:45] that's thing on my shelf I got to get to the eyes yeah so so I watched the first it's alive which I had not seen in a while like it's alive movies and a
[01:23:52] lot of Larry Coe yeah well there yeah I'll get to it but a lot of that those and a lot of Larry Cohen films I kind of watch in junior and senior because you'd like find them in the library on VHS or DVD so it's alive is
[01:24:05] the story of a couple who are about to have a child they go to the hospital the woman starts having the child next thing you know all the doctors in the delivery room are dead and the baby has escaped through the top bent because it
[01:24:20] is alive it's alive because it's a v-lizard and it's a mutant baby and and so the movie balances in a strange way in a very effective but strange way of being a mutant baby killer rampage movie and a
[01:24:39] domestic drama about coping with the loss of a child because they don't know how to handle the fact that their baby slaughtered an entire operating room for all doctors and that the rest of the world thinks that their baby is evil and
[01:24:53] needs to be killed and it all culminates in a fun little interesting chase down a sewer because we can't show too much of the mutant baby because it's a low budget mutant baby designed by early Rick Baker before he got you know
[01:25:09] budget to do great things yeah because it's Rick Baker did the makeup for it back before he was big the movie is not bad it's just that it's it's loony it's it what's loony and it's also low budget so it's like there's not like there's
[01:25:26] kind of like a pass that you give there and it was made in 1973 1974 and it ended up becoming big through a re-release by Warner Brothers because when it was first release it did nothing but it's interesting in terms of like how dated
[01:25:41] and yet not dated the film is because like some of the things they're asking in the film in terms of the parental questions are still are still questions that are around today it's just that the arguments and the solutions have been
[01:25:54] involved over time because like the allegory that they like that is right out there is like oh it's the same as having a mentally challenged child and whatnot like do you know that's what they're pushing though I'm not telling
[01:26:08] you I'm not telling you that that's what I think I'm telling you with the movie that's on my shelf says oh good that's but like again like it's it's it's like one of many different things they're trying to put like Larry Cohen's a
[01:26:22] really talented writer and filmmaker and he kind of makes low budget message movies they're really weird I mean I don't know like I it's pretty fun like fun watching it like the best part of the film easily is the final moment
[01:26:35] when they've they've killed the mutant baby the evil evil's been vanquished or whatever even though there's a conflict because the parents were starting to grow attached to it and trying to like like say like no we can raise it and it
[01:26:47] won't be a killer mutant baby after all because it's possible to love the disabled exactly yeah that they got exactly so like but but the detectives think it's evil so but anyway so they get in the car and then
[01:26:58] the detective who was on the case gets a call from Seattle and they say like that was Seattle another one's been born there and then they just cut to the outside of the car and they drive off so I'm like so do they what get a bunch of
[01:27:11] shotguns and go up and try to hunt the other babies let's not go to Seattle this is it's so it's such a weird like push-off but like the movie still entertaining enough as a horror film it's not like they're the best scene in
[01:27:25] the movies probably when the killer mutant baby attacks a guy driving a milk truck it's pretty fun but I have to go through the other two again I haven't watched Island of the Alive is the one I remember not really loving it's for the
[01:27:37] story so much as just watching the puppets yeah it's weird like I can say about all the it's alive movies is they're weird the 18 minute featurette they have on it is fun to listen to just because Larry Cohen's he's
[01:27:49] an interesting fella he knows what he makes like he's not he has no disillusionment you really like he made a cue the wing serpent yeah pretty fun yeah and he made um original gang of those original gang says
[01:28:01] this pop Pam Graham movie from 1994 but he also wrote foam booth with yeah oh shit I like that move yeah for Sutherland and Colin Farrell so I mean he's talented he just he wants to make what he wants to make yeah exactly like
[01:28:13] he knows his wheelhouse really well why not they're doing a doc you they're showing a documentary about him at Elmo Film Club next week that I really want to um so that there was that I started watching the Joe Mikhail show with Joe
[01:28:26] Mikhail um what version penis Mikhail penis Mikhail there was only one episode of that unfortunately but it was a great episode um no um it's great it's fun watching Joe Mikhail do that thing again that he'd like to do he's a ghost
[01:28:38] pizza goes great I would I submit to you that Paul Figue playing himself is one of the greatest things I've ever seen I love that he canceled the community and then I mean Eric Eric Banna has been in bandanas like that's
[01:28:54] a hard thing to say like Eric Banna's bandanas Eric Banna's bandanas that's great Joe Manganiello being a weatherman and then also having a crime watch show is pretty awesome um the hands down though the best segment I saw was
[01:29:08] actually the one I watched today which is just Michael and they cut to a cut to a trading space Michael this this segment brought to you by the movie Michael in theaters December 26 1996 Michael um you're gonna oh yeah you're
[01:29:26] gonna love Michael um so yeah that shows great um that the all the different appearances are fun but the bill I won was fun as shit so that was great yeah um I um trying to remember sorry oh yeah I watched my in the mouth of madness
[01:29:43] screen factory blu-ray movie still fun I recommend James watch it specifically like all y'all who listen to the show yeah all y'all who listen to the show by all means go watch it but James needs to watch it specifically I
[01:29:55] remember that there's a scene in there that used to freak my friend Brandon out where the woman walks up to the children and she says hey who takes care of you kids okay it goes you do you're our mommy and it is mommy's day
[01:30:08] like piranha teeth and yeah fucked up it's pretty awesome yeah trot trot trot trot and hesson's it's good cameo yeah it's an interesting like he did some interesting stuff in the mid to late 90s and early 2000s before he
[01:30:22] passed away the weirdest of which being the plan of the apes remake I rewatched inside man on Netflix which is a good movie the the the one spike movie Ryan likes I hadn't watched in a while I really liked watching it this
[01:30:40] time around cuz I was watching it more as a spikely movie unless there's just any kind of movie shut up but no like that like that movies that movies got his style it's clear that he's directing it like cuz I I thought I'm like Lee
[01:30:56] style he has like he uses a lot of wide long shots he has a lot of people talking to the camera he uses a slick jazz score I don't know if Terence once seen an inside man where they explain that white people hate black people and
[01:31:09] most and most other races there's that that scene are you talking about his content palette or is visual palette let's see but no fun film I forgot Willem de Faubus in it too yeah and he's not like that movie yeah I mean he
[01:31:23] doesn't what will have a lot to do in it but you know cuz it's more watching Denzel and Clibode and do their thing I'm always down to watch and Christopher Palmer is great in it he's great in most things so and then
[01:31:35] the last thing I saw this week was I actually did not see the Meg this week instead I saw black clansman oh cool so yeah so that works a lot better when you go around say you should use watch the Meg then you say yeah yeah actually I
[01:31:49] watched it black clansman take it from a pro so see the last time I did that with Hurricane Heist and the greatest showman you guys told me that you didn't want to discuss the greatest showman so I thought I just put glad
[01:31:59] in here I forgot Spike Lee style is actually part 10 look style that's that's what you're you're a whole anyway so yeah so if anybody didn't know what this movie is about it's about a the first black detective representing yeah
[01:32:17] Colorado Springs Police Department which by the way I need to look at the production that's like there's some stuff that may have been like second Colorado but it doesn't look all like cliffhanger yeah Brooks watched Secretariat this week yeah because it was on Netflix and she wanted something
[01:32:31] she didn't have to think about what she watched which is a good choice for them that's a what you know it's like set in Denver and every time they show you Denver you're like that's fucking so not Denver yeah I know nothing about
[01:32:43] that is one of those things at the film commission like I wished it would just like that's where you advocate for this shit man like Colorado Springs I'm sure they'd work with you right like literally it looks like they took a
[01:32:54] house from California and dropped it in front of mountains in Wyoming yeah like this is so wrong whereas when you shoot the hateful late and you shoot in Colorado but we're gonna call it Wyoming but uh but yeah no so it's
[01:33:07] the story about the first black detective in the Colorado Springs Police Department Ron Stallworth and how he managed to infiltrate the KKK using one of his fellow detectives as the actual double and then doing all other
[01:33:20] contact over the phone with the Colorado Springs chapter of the clan and also David Duke played by Toe for Grace Toe for Grace well started with the performance of Toe for Grace is actually really fucking good in this
[01:33:31] movie like it's it's disturbing how good he is he is he's not like it's because he's playing it like there was an interview that I read about like the way they're approached David Duke was the way that he's always like like
[01:33:46] tried to approach himself which is like he's like trying to be this friendly face of the clan which is like so strange to read about Toe for Grace's performance is trying to do that and it works really well because he's like
[01:33:57] he's not like it's weird like he's being too diplomatic for what you would traditionally put a Klansman on things so it's really weird so it's like a very terrifying performance like he scares the crap out of me when he's
[01:34:09] like doing half the things he's doing in this film. John David Washington Denzel's son is excellent in this film. Adam Driver's really fucking good. He this is one of the first Adam Driver movies that I've seen where he
[01:34:25] kind of breaks out of breaks out of a shell that I thought he was in like he's really good but like there's something about it. He's mixing comedy and like just straight up frustration and drama in here really well. And the movie is it's very entertaining.
[01:34:43] It's actually two hours and 10 minutes but it doesn't feel like that. It moves really quick. The beginning of the film like from beginning to end it's a fantastic piece. It feels like a Spike Lee movie from the late 80s so it feels like I do
[01:34:58] the right thing or Malcolm X where he kind of pulls out all the stops visually like he'll do a musical sequence at one point and then the next moment he'll be showing you a clip from a movie you probably forgot about.
[01:35:09] The beginning of the movie literally opens with a clip of Gone with the Wind to set the tone for what you're about to see followed by a cameo that you're not expecting for this movie at all.
[01:35:19] I don't understand how Gone with the Wind would in any way have racial ties to this film. It's almost like you need to watch it. Well you know what James Franklin I don't give a damn. I brought that back around from the beginning of the podcast. Thank you.
[01:35:32] But yeah and then there's not really a spoiler to the end of the film but like I'd rather not tell you. So here it goes. Yeah no I just rather not tell you what happens because I think like it's best to walk into that.
[01:35:44] Are you going to watch CNN and Spike Lee ruins it for you. He was on there the other day. Oh really. Yeah I'm gonna watch who he has to say. Oh I mean it makes sense. I'm not going to spoil it on here but right right.
[01:35:54] I mean it makes sense why he did it. Yeah I know it's it's not he shoots David Duke David I would be a mate. No I would spoil that. It's going to be the glorious bastard's version of the of the story.
[01:36:04] He doesn't do that but there is a great scene where John David Washington pulls one last prank on David Duke that's really funny. But no like it's not even like that the endings of spoilers just the way he visually does it is pretty fucking
[01:36:17] beautiful and scary and terrifying and God this world sucks. But yeah so I think you should go watch it. I think it's pretty fucking amazing that Spike Lee's come back from doing a lot of very very independent stuff recently and made a film that's very very accessible.
[01:36:38] Like it doesn't like I don't there's a lot of empathy in that film that you're not expecting. And there's a lot of like heart to it in the midst of it also being a traditional Spike Lee movie which I do enjoy like it actually made me want to
[01:36:55] watch Malcolm X again because I just think that's a really solidly made epic film. But yeah so anyway that's all I watched this week. Cool. Brad. So this week at the drive in. She wouldn't do it. So I think I've watched 98% of 15 seasons of Health's Kitchen now.
[01:37:20] Most of it's just like. Did that kitchen ever go to hell yet. Got to just stop. Just stop. Well they can't make a fucking risotto. My favorite thing is because I love that it's you're watching on Prime. That's only when I'm watching it because it's unedited.
[01:37:34] Yeah all the filthy stuff still in you. Fuck off your dick face. Not dick face chef your dick face. What is it an idiot sandwich. I miss. I haven't seen that. That's not in the. No that's a different show right. It's Health's Kitchen.
[01:37:50] I must have missed it anyway. I usually just working while. Oh yeah it's in the background because. The later seasons a lot of the same and I like the first couple of seasons I enjoyed a lot because they really felt like I was learning something from Chef Ramsay.
[01:38:03] Well yeah. Because also to I don't know when they stop doing it but remember in the first few seasons they each got a side of the restaurant that each design their own menu. And yeah they could design. I forget. Yeah now they just like get an
[01:38:13] opportunity to be a chef at some already built restaurant. But like the current seasons now like they're so gimmicky it's like. You know it used to be about like make this really awesome dish. But now it's like make this really awesome dish or your friends get dunked
[01:38:26] in this dunk tank with a bunch of shit and it looks like that's not as like about the craft as I used to like. So that's kind of unfortunate. If you need to up that empty. And a lot of the problems are just
[01:38:37] like you like it's raw it's cold. Yeah so at a certain point it's like I've heard everything go wrong. Yeah yeah like it's it seems like the current seasons are also more heavily edited because people aren't screwing up enough. So they're like manufacturing more
[01:38:54] scripts than they really are. You know I always tell people I don't know if you can find them I have them on DVD he has a show called the F word in Britain. And it's really him just going around teaching people how to cook
[01:39:03] and he's really he's really toned down in it. They should show it on BBC America. Yeah a lot. Yeah so it's people going to his like really his restaurant. There's got to be a way to get it. Yeah and it's it's more of that
[01:39:16] where he has like these young people come in and they he shows them you know the right way to cook stuff. Yeah I was more that like it'd be nice to have a season where they only get like great chefs and they
[01:39:24] have to like compete to be the best. Cool yeah. It's been nice change up. And also like after season two like the first season they didn't do like the boys versus girls the whole time. So like that's like after 14 season. Like why is that hung around
[01:39:39] like it doesn't seem really matter in the end. Like eventually he'll change it up and like send someone from the other team over to like even things out after people get ejected. You know I think why that show is still so popular. So too because even the
[01:39:50] eliminations at the end he does kind of like throw wrenches in it. Yeah I mean there's times when people go up you know nominate these two people and he'll pick someone who's just sitting down yeah and I think or kick some both out.
[01:40:01] It's it's like also how dumb the content like there's contestants who like in the middle show admit that they've been watching the past seasons but they still don't like expect that they're going to bring back you know the runner up chefs can be against them the final five
[01:40:14] or something. So it's just yeah when you watch that much of it you start to see like how produced the show really is. It's kind of deflating. Let me tell you about how positive and encouraging the great British bake off is. No it's on Netflix you can
[01:40:31] get it. Watch it anytime. It's amazing. It'll just make you feel happy when people get kicked off everybody who's staying on the show cries because they're sad that that's why I like Masterchef Junior. Yeah because he so yeah I can't yell at children. No and he encourages them
[01:40:45] and he teaches them the right way to cook stuff. Yeah. And he never and they they never pick like the worst dish. So Masterchef Junior it's OK you three didn't do as good of a job and then you two get eliminated. They never pick on someone for
[01:40:57] being the worst. And I think that really helps and I mean I like Masterchef a little more now because it is about the cooking. And I mean he's made me cry on that show when he talked about the blind lady making the perfect pie.
[01:41:09] I'm like oh my god. It's guy. This guy. That sounds like a great like biopic. This blind lady. Yeah she's pretty perfect pretty. She won Masterchef. She's pretty good. Then I. I don't know how far I how much I missed but I saw Christopher Robin at the drive-in.
[01:41:28] Woo. I'm guessing about 15 minutes to half an hour's worth because they were. Well how do you going to know why we McGregor's talking to those animals. That would help. Did you come in later did it end earlier. I just I just got there late. Oh OK.
[01:41:45] I expected like the sun set way faster than I thought it was. Going to. Sun's fault. They start the movies when it gets dark. Right I forgot. Yeah. You know I was still like on 225 when I was like. I think we have started here. Yeah.
[01:42:01] But yeah so I feel like I missed half of the movie because it's the part where. Christopher Robin like gets off the train and they're in the Hundred Acre Wood. Yeah. Yeah you miss you miss like Act One. Yeah. Yeah. So. Because that all goes pretty quick but.
[01:42:17] I mean it's a short. So I'm about to say like I was mostly bored through the movie. Yeah I mean if you didn't I had no context for like what was going on. If you didn't start crying two minutes in like I did.
[01:42:27] I'm pretty sure you didn't then continue to cry for the next hour and a half like I did. You also have to not be a robot but. Like I get it's like. You do need a lot of Christopher Robin. Yeah except the problem is you're right.
[01:42:39] But you did kind of need that setup to understand like when you see the montage really on where Christopher Robin sort of loses himself and you understand why. Like I think part of why that movie works so well for me is that it it makes you on
[01:42:54] it's not just like oh he got old and adults aren't imaginative or fun anymore like no man it's like a veteran he got old out of rough time to grow up and like watching him go like learn what the world really is is the part where the watch.
[01:43:11] You know yeah like it hooks you really well and some of the things that happened later on in the movie are callbacks to the opening sequence. So yeah if you miss the beginning of that movie you I think you certainly miss a lot of the
[01:43:23] emotional core and that movie is basically nothing more than like a giant blubbery emotion baseball bat that it hits you with over and over and over again like I mean I want that on the poos ability to basically just say things that make your heart hurt a
[01:43:40] lot is ridiculous or makes your heart soar. It hurts it but then it makes it yeah most of the time he just makes things that make you very sad and it's amazing. But so yeah I would say like it's something you should definitely if you get a chance
[01:43:56] to watch it again like rented or something like that or if you get a chance to see it like when it's still the drive in like watch it again and my hope would be that you would get that week. So OK yeah there you go.
[01:44:08] Probably not miss at this time. Yeah. But yeah like without the beginning I was just like OK so Chris Robbins I work a lot dad and he's ignoring his family and that's it. Like yeah with a credit I think there's some really good poo and all of them
[01:44:25] was in the beginning was their house burned down or broke it or whatever. Huffle lumps or whatever. What movie did you see. Yes. It burned down. He's right. No he didn't say but yeah yeah yeah no you're you're you are correct. I think that we would all agree
[01:44:41] that the first 10 minutes of that 10 15 minutes of that movie are very critical to what that movie is about. So the houses in the Hundred Acre Wood burned down. Well yeah it fell over and Dwayne Johnson was pissed. It fell over because of the wind
[01:44:55] but they think it's a half a lump and then the whole point is that like dude dude dude went off and became a half a lump man. Yeah yeah you become the very thing you swear to destroy. You're banning I mean I cried
[01:45:10] for an hour and a half. And the last thing I saw was a movie called Liquid Sky. And I'm shaking my head. Seems really cool. It seemed like a cool the trailer that they're playing at the midnight of the Esquire was for this Nia.
[01:45:26] Oh no Brad Brad Brad Brad we're reviewing the Meg at the end of the episode. Sorry go ahead. So it's a movie called Liquid Sky. OK. Where do I begin with this it's from the 80s Is there a neon in it. There is a lot of neon
[01:45:46] there's a so this looks awesome the plot is that aliens come to Earth in search of Oh my God Neon no not neon Demon drugs. OK so looking for cocaine it's the 80s right. More specifically they're looking for the high that comes from drugs
[01:46:10] and they don't get drugs. So the scientists in the movie say that the same high you get from drugs is the same from an orgasm. So oh so aliens go on a fuck fast. The aliens try to and so when they fuck people it also makes people disappear
[01:46:29] when they orgasm so they just blink out of existence. So there's like and I feel really dumb because do all the aliens look like David Bowie. So there's this character you're looking at. I felt so dumb because that actor plays two characters in the movie and
[01:46:51] the whole time I watched him like they seem really familiar especially playing like an androgynous character and then this female like a model and then like later on the movie like look at the credits like oh those were the same person. Anyway the dialogue is like
[01:47:09] I don't know if it's intentionally bad on purpose like everyone's just kind of like reciting stuff and it's the whole it's like this New York art scene where everyone's just being weird and doing like poetry slams and you know getting high and forgot that's a thing
[01:47:26] just doing photo shoots on the balcony like next to the Empire State Building and then you know it'll cut to weird reverse negative footage with like weird color crazy colors like the Predators looking at everything. Does she ever wear this costume where she's got the Z from
[01:47:41] Zoo Books on her chest. Shit this looks really cool though this is not from the movie but I'm really excited about it. It looks like it's from the movie. Okay all right. There's a lot of predator vision in the movie. All right so all the stuff
[01:47:56] that Google brings up that looks cool you're saying is not from the movie. Yeah that's too bad. So anyway I think liquid sky is like another term for heroin or cocaine. Don't know anyway but we'll take your word for it. Yeah so you're going to add
[01:48:12] that to the book of drug references right now I got to it feels super long and the acting's horrendous maybe on purpose I don't know the employees seem really jazzed about it like it's some cult classic. It's hard to watch a movie when the acting is bad.
[01:48:29] Yeah and it's really filthy too like dialogue wise. Yeah. Yeah like people is going like there's a lot of violence against women in the movie there's like a rape scene. And the house niche movie. Yeah it's Hey honey have you had your
[01:48:49] asshole you know by a fat man in an overcoat. Well that's a different house niche. It's called silent Bob ism. Sweet man you bet your sweet man. Yes. Well the hair in the movie looks cool so are you're saying wouldn't you wouldn't recommend it.
[01:49:09] Not to like a cat like if it shows up on prime probably skip it but I mean do you think it's a nominee for for that's popular popular film. Yes thank you. You have to make it popular though. By watching it. Only you only you can make
[01:49:24] liquid sky a winner. Man calling your vote yes or no to American Idol. So yeah that was a bummer I was really excited to like that's really cool like lost. Just imagine the ladies thing. Imagine you just so excited like it was like you just.
[01:49:42] Like I like weird but this was just like way too just like it just felt like a huge waste. How weird did you know like it yeah like it just felt like a bunch of like people on the in the New York arts scene just got
[01:49:56] together and made some. Fever dream. While they were high. Anyway. But as Kenry if you had anything to do with it you might have watched it I don't know I've seen it yeah I have to check letterbox but that's why I watched this week. Cool James. Yeah so.
[01:50:13] Very quickly I will go through the last two weeks of I saw Mission Impossible fall out and it's one of the most incredible things I've ever seen in the theater. I just as far as it being so impressive and is something that everybody has
[01:50:26] see I love that they used his running ability to be an action set piece in a movie. Mm hmm. Like listening to the show and be like yeah Tom Cruise does run. Write the movie around that Alph. Oh yeah season two is pretty great by the way.
[01:50:41] Yeah it's better. Yeah it just just absolutely incredible love so much of it. It makes it very hard for me to have conversations about what my favorite Mission Impossible movie is. I think it's the best one. I think there's a real good chance it is.
[01:50:58] There's such great character development in this one for a silly action movie and then like those action set pieces are so ridiculous like man really cool villain. I made me really appreciate the fact that Christopher McQuarrie came back because now I realize like oh he
[01:51:19] had a double feature. I'll show you the inner thing is one big story. Yeah and the whole thing I definitely read some stuff where he was talking about like what it was like to try and film the films film the movie so that it feels like a different
[01:51:31] director even though he's continuing the story he started. So yeah you know excited for somebody else to come on you know but at the same point like holy shit like man Tommy Waisow. Yeah were you did you like immediately question what was going on when
[01:51:48] Henry Cavill shows up in the nightclub scene after they've gone past the checkpoint. Having not any problems. I mean I knew pretty early that Henry Cavill was a bad guy spoilers but they but then they go through a lot of they go through a lot of
[01:52:02] trouble to make him seem like that's possibly a right hearing. Yeah it was if I have a problem with the movie it is that part of it where I feel like they they don't do a they don't do a great job of really making you
[01:52:16] like honestly I would have rather they had revealed it earlier so that then there's that there's that that tension where we know and he doesn't but that's so unusual for mission impossible movie because they're so often from Ethan Hunt's point of view like we know what he knows
[01:52:35] but yeah if you want me to nitpick the thing that I had a problem with you just hit it on the head. Like I would have loved to see where they revealed that and they do kind of because they have that scene where she you know he goes
[01:52:45] to her and gives her this stuff. I wish they had just gone the extra the extra mile to make it clear like yeah dog is a bad guy because then that the tension during that scene when you know that all falls down would have been so cool.
[01:53:02] That's what they should have done with his mustache. She should have twittled it right after that scene with her. Yes actually oh my god. 100% agree with you that if if he had like they they left and then he like his face you know no his face just relaxes
[01:53:17] as if he's been like he's been constipated this whole time and he just took a poo. Like his whole face relaxes and in a comic kind of cartoon kind of way his mustache like like pops up into a twirl as if like this whole time he's been
[01:53:31] concentrating on her on holding his mustache down with his mind and then finally everyone leaves the room and it just turns into an evil mustache that would have been great. Oh my god. You know what we've done enough reshoots on this but what the heck not let's
[01:53:44] get a little bit more and come on director's cut for a blu-ray. I hear that it's really easy to just CG the bottom half of his face so we can make this happen. So I also saw Christopher Robin which I sort of talked about I adored that movie.
[01:53:57] I cried for the entire crying the movie the entire length of the movie. I think there's so many like I went into it being like oh this is going to be like a fun family movie and like but it's going to pull my heartstrings and then like
[01:54:11] immediately when poo starts talking and just sent like everything comes out of his mouth is like this just beautiful statement for the way you should live your life and every time that he's sad every time that he wants a red balloon you're just like heartbroken. It's fantastic.
[01:54:29] So yeah you shouldn't steal a balloon from a grown man. Did I miss him like eating CJ honey in the beginning. Oh yeah he's honey at the beginning. Yeah. Well like he's eating it in the hundred acre wood when he was a kid and then
[01:54:42] when he yeah he feeds him regular honey at the dinner table and then he gets his foot stuck on it. Yes if you came in and they were out of the train then yeah there was a bunch of honey sequences early on or like couple having
[01:54:52] nothing else just into like wow they really didn't like that's kind of staple. Oh yeah. No it's not making the movie it's like when they when you first see when you first see poo he's eating honey and then when he first comes into the real world
[01:55:04] like that that you know 10 minutes later he's eating honey and slipping and honey and getting covered in honey so they've like they've been to death by the time you came into the movie that they were like okay no more honey. Does he get how they watched it
[01:55:19] as for off screen with a with a wipe yeah yeah see star white it's not even a regular way to start anyway so yeah I think it's great. I was I was really into it and even for somebody like me who like I know when
[01:55:41] you the poo but like there are things that they reference where I'm like okay you're referencing something that I just don't remember. There are there are Easter eggs laid in all over the home maker in this movie and then when when the third act started and I went
[01:55:56] oh this is how we save Christopher Robin like this is the other character that's going to get involved then I was just demolished from then on too I'm like I really yeah it was a it was a Lincoln kind of thing where like I cry
[01:56:12] I started crying at the beginning and then was so emotionally raw that I cried constantly okay so James's birthday double feature of the Alamo would be Christopher Robin followed by Lincoln yeah little things like like when he you know Christopher Robin asked him like
[01:56:28] how did you get here and he's like I tend to show up where I'm needed like oh god like everything that he says is so good and the whole sequence the whole sequence where did you let me go he's a high-fell ump and
[01:56:40] yeah did you let me go man all of it so good uh so anyway moving on um I got a chance to watch big eyes this week which is the Tim Burton movie uh with any Adams I really enjoyed that I mean it's interesting like the roller coaster
[01:56:56] they take you on where um I mean spoilers for a movie that's four years old now but like you have this character who early on I was actually like I watched it with Brooks and she very quickly was like I fucking hate this guy
[01:57:10] and I was like well okay hold on uh it's because there's a well no it was like there's a you can kind of understand like how he fell into this trap and then as it rolls forward you're like oh like hard like he becomes a cartoon
[01:57:22] villain he becomes a must-ash twirling cartoon villain but but but but one that's somehow a little bit above an actual cartoon like it's a little it's a little there's literally a point at which he is like you know in court and he's running back and forth from being
[01:57:37] the lawyer to being interviewed and you're like this is the cartoon but there's a scene there are scenes prior to that I remember where he's just like straight up in her dick Oh absolutely no I'm not even cartoonish but there is this like level of you know
[01:57:50] surrealism to it that that yeah anyway I think it's really fun I think the story is fantastic I think Amy Adams is perhaps like the surrealism of the painting and well yeah and it's a subtle timber movie too oh yeah yeah yeah
[01:58:04] I mean I put it in a class of like a it's not as good as big fish but it's like it's like a big eyes on a shy I'm just saying big big is the thing that makes him it's third in the trilogy of the remake of big
[01:58:17] big trilogy big guys and big fish yeah Penny Marshall didn't want to carry on this he was big adventure he was big adventure oh the movies that have big in them the best of his movie it's also a return well okay hold on now we're going
[01:58:32] oh there it's getting weird Tim Burton likes big things oh it's also a return to him with Alexander and Karazuzki who did Man on the Moon and Edward so they wrote the script and they were trying to make this their directorial debut and it didn't work
[01:58:44] and they brought it to Tim and said Tim make it and he said okay but uh yeah I thought it was really great if that Amy Adams is fantastic in the movie especially because similarly like she's somewhat responsible for the predicament she finds herself in
[01:58:57] but you also realize like that is a result of the culture in which she lived and you know all that so I think I think I think she's moved and you know all that and also just they did agree where she was at the beginning
[01:59:09] to where she ends up at the end yeah it is a slippery slope that eventually gets you into you know this horrible place so what's your big ol juice big ol juice Helen a Bigham Carter um big attacks I saw a Disney movie
[01:59:23] that you can get on Netflix from 2016 called Queen of Katwa which is a great little movie that I keep seeing on my Disney movie club like they keep sort of like popping it up in places I'm like oh yeah it's fantastic um I would compare it to like
[01:59:41] a cool running kind of a movie but definitely a little more dramatic um so it tells the story it's set in Uganda and there's this young woman whose mother is a widow and so her whole family is very poor and there's this guy in town who starts teaching
[02:00:02] all of these kids and she plays chess um and of course you go through this whole thing where this girl becomes really good at chess and it lifts her out of her terrible situation and she learns lessons along the way and it's just it's very charming um
[02:00:16] it has Lupita Nyong'o in it who is fantastic and she's wonderful in the movie and then David yellow yellow yeah I'm always really bad at his last name he's awesome like the two of them and the little girl is fantastic like it's a great little movie
[02:00:35] it's pretty short you know it's a it is a Disney family movie in the way that you don't get to see them very often you know and it's funny because it's too bad that like seems to have just been under the radar kind of thing it came out
[02:00:49] it came out like either a year or two years ago but it came out like in it was dumped in September Disney did very little to promote yeah it's too bad cause it's a great little movie so I for the first time ever saw what lies beneath finally
[02:01:05] what did lie beneath and that I'm not even gonna like not even gonna address it so what lies beneath is really great and yeah a little bit dated there's a couple little things in it that when you go back you're like okay Robert you were pushing the edge
[02:01:24] trying to make this look better yeah there's a few yeah yeah it's it's not the stuff the stuff the stuff that's impressive is the stuff that's hard mm-hmm the stuff that's not impressive is the stuff that didn't need to be hard yeah like the problems are things like
[02:01:39] just shots of a car driving on a bridge CG together for some reason whereas spoilers for a 20 year old movie the part where there's a ghost lady is like actually looks great yeah partially because like you made her intentionally kind of wobbly so like the CG
[02:01:55] the CG age as well because it's supposed to break you know Harrison Ford's great in that movie Harrison Ford's amazing Michelle Pfeiffer's really great like the whole story was wonderful there's just a cool like a cool ass movie there's unfortunately not a Blu-ray of it weird yeah
[02:02:12] so that's too bad wasn't it like when a baby came out yeah oh yeah it was huge yeah yeah I remember my parents going to see it and then coming back and being like this movie is great you can't see it did they say it with that
[02:02:24] demonic pinch at the end you can't see it yeah because I was like 13 or 12 or something like that and a movie with a lot of sex and people having affairs and murdering their other people and creepy ghosts and shit I would not have been okay
[02:02:39] with this movie when I was 12 I would have had a hard time sleeping for a while you would have been like hey cool I'm gonna play with my leg yeah I was a sensitive little guy yeah aww 30 million opening 155 gross that's not bad for 2001 2000 2000 yeah
[02:02:56] and then the very last thing that I've watched recently which has just been gone so long is Hannah Gadsby has a special on Netflix called Nenette that I cannot recommend more highly who is that she's a comedian or at least at the time she made this she was
[02:03:18] so it's a stand up special she is from Tasmania and it starts really nothing do you really thought I was gonna make a Tasmanian Devil Joke I did you see you know what now is not the appropriate time here's the thing you can't predict what I'll do
[02:03:41] you can't predict the crazy I'm a loose cannon in that respect so it starts off as a relatively traditional feeling stand up special she's a it's important to know that she is a lesbian who grew up in Tasmania which is a pretty terrible place to grow up
[02:04:04] if you are of that persuasion yeah and she you know the first I would say half or so is really about like you know it's her telling different jokes and some of them are about like criticism she's gotten and all these different things that are really great
[02:04:19] the second half I would say is closer to a TED talk almost bordering on a rant where she makes the argument for why she needs to stop doing comedy there are some incredibly powerful statements in this and these beautiful arguments that especially in light of I don't know
[02:04:41] all the other shit I've been griping about this week and how really offensive and terrible things are right now just rings very true and a lot of the state I think there's some things where I'm like okay man that one's harsh or pretty hard
[02:04:58] but at the same point she addresses that pretty clearly I think it is a very important thing for people to watch is it trying to make an argument that comedy is becoming obsolete like that's no no no no that's why I heard no no no it is
[02:05:13] that she needs to stop because it is comedy by itself inherently there's two aspects that she talks about and it's brilliant one is about this whole thing of releasing tension that comedy her job is to create and then release tension that is her job
[02:05:30] it's also about the fact that inherent to comedy is that most of comedy is very self-deprecating and that unfortunately the fact that like her being self-deprecating creates a culture that is very difficult and also she no longer wants to release the tension
[02:05:48] releasing the tension tends to be the problem and that is me grossly not doing a service to how beautiful the argument is I mean if anything it makes me want to watch this now just to hear her section you absolutely should an hour and five minutes long
[02:06:04] something like that like I said there are going to be things where you're going to there are some things that are maybe a little hard to swallow at the time but when you really take them in the context of what she's saying I think are really powerful
[02:06:15] there is a there is a masterful passage the whole section about basically why Picasso shouldn't matter and we shouldn't talk about him that I think is pretty incredible and holy shit is that argument good so yeah I really anyone who has Netflix should be watching the net N-A-N-E-T-T-E
[02:06:37] it's incredible and one of the coolest most impressive beautiful things I've watched this year if it's anything as earnest as Dave Chappelle's recent special was where he did it in the the comedy club in LA yeah but the Bird Revelation well just in terms of like being earnest
[02:06:52] and being sincere so I adore the Bird Revelation I will tell you that it has been in my top ten list for a long time this is better than the Bird Revelation because this is a this is actually even more
[02:07:07] like this is more relevant at a higher level than that that is you know right um not that the Bird Revelation isn't brilliant and it is but it's extremely specific yeah she's talking about a cancer in our culture on a way that is way more fascinating and cool
[02:07:29] so yeah I think people should check it out it's awesome that's everything I've watched sorry that was long alright obviously we got a really nice podcast we saw the Meg Ladan Brad your people see the Meg um how should I put this uh
[02:07:54] this is backfiring I think uh next week at the Esquire they should watch I know what you did last summer at the midnight hahahaha and then Monty Python the Holy Grail the following week oh that was good but the Meg the Meg the Meg um shut up Meg
[02:08:12] surprisingly a fun watch I did not expect a lot from this movie and it's you know it's not like Jaws quality but uh you know don't think about the science of it um the characters the whole team is fun to watch um Rainn Wilson as the billionaire like
[02:08:34] like punctuates every scene with like a really good uh comedic thing um and state them as like it feels like a character who knows he's an action star at the same time hahahaha uh it's pretty sweet like when they first uh
[02:08:50] they first approach him he's like ahead of the conversation like you're gonna ask me this then we're gonna do this and then I'm just gonna sit back and drink this beer um so yeah I think it's a lot of fun I felt like this movie was
[02:09:02] designed for 3D and having not seen 3D I feel like I missed out on seeing an awesome 3D did you watch in 3D yes because a lot of shots are just like poking at the screen and like oh that would have been fun to see so James?
[02:09:20] uh yeah I would say that the 3D is a big part of why I wasn't more bored um the the 3D like made me believe in 3D again so much I enjoyed that part um but I will say I think this movie is not bad enough
[02:09:42] and so I got bored for some parts of it there's a lot of talking bits and not enough shark murder and I so there's some more mourning parts of this film than in Jaws and that's a real movie um and so like
[02:10:04] I realized when it was over I kind of like Deep Blue Sea more um but it's fine it's fine it's not a the shark movie I wanted um but it's fine if you want to go see the mag you should see the mag if you're like me
[02:10:24] and you like bad movies you might enjoy this one I mean but regular people shouldn't go see it if you want to see a good movie don't go see the mag um but uh because it is both bad and boring um but for people like me
[02:10:38] the bad is the fun part and then there's just boring um so yeah I mean yeah yeah but if you're gonna see it see it in 3D I literally told the girl at AMC um when she was like oh you know that's a 3D version
[02:10:50] and I said yeah I mean if I'm gonna see a garbage movie I'm gonna see it in a garbage way and she was like that makes a lot of sense so I was like thank you um but yeah so definitely see it in 3D
[02:11:02] uh yeah I talked to James earlier this week and I saw it in 3D because it was the only one that was available um to me because uh my life is I have my job and my kid and my wife works and so I got
[02:11:12] to find a way to fit in a two hour movie um so I went and saw it at the new uh Harkins theater in Arvada because it was the only one like at 945 I saw Mission Impossible in 3D last weekend so yeah in 3D this movie's awesome
[02:11:24] because not only are there things coming at you but when you're underwater they did a really cool job of the um like the plankton and oh yeah or the fish like the only sequences everything was moving around you and it had depth
[02:11:36] yeah which you don't get a lot stuff comes out because it's floating from the edges it's probably the coolest 3D movie I've seen since Spider-Man Homecoming and Spider-Man just lends itself to it because he's swinging and he's in yeah he's in the center of the frame
[02:11:48] um and you're biased yeah and I'm biased um Spider-Man always be my favorite uh but as in terms of the movie I actually had lots of fun with it I don't it reminds me a lot of Rampage where it knew what it was
[02:12:00] but it did have like a lot of serious like oh I can't be the guys dude yeah uh man we have to sit here and cry for a while but Brad brought up a really funny point that I didn't think about until he said it that Jason Statham
[02:12:10] does know he's an action star in it yeah no that's very firm he does things like swimming with the Megalodon fuck it I'll jump off the back of this boat Jason Megalodon if anything there's not a there's there's too much part where there's not Jason Statham in it
[02:12:26] because that's when I get bored yeah but I still think if you want to see like a fun movie and kind of just turn off your brain this is a good movie to do it on because I had fun with it
[02:12:36] yeah here's a here's a trailer for the Meg a living fossil thought I'd been extinct over two million years wrong so Megalodon he's kidding right that thing's out there need to find it and kill it why don't you just put a tracker on it
[02:14:23] you guys ever watch Shark Week he looks heroic but it's kind of got a negative attitude she won this you ugly he didn't see it oh okay we'll I saw black clansman in theaters now which is why when I texted out my joke about fighting sharks with Gungan
[02:15:09] underwater boats this week he didn't understand what I was talking about I was talking about where people who've seen the Meg will go why the fuck are there Gungan ships in this movie I forgot to make that point it felt like Star Wars underwater
[02:15:23] I loved you they try to explain science to it but the science is stupid when they go to the trench we just punch through the atmosphere well at the bottom there's a layer of ice water that keeps all the historic animals at bay so the pitches that
[02:15:43] at the bottom of the ocean where we where we think where we you know where we think the bottom of the ocean is actually there the cold water traps a bunch of gases right there and so we think it's the bottom but it's not
[02:15:59] if we shoot us a submarine a man submarine at it and not a probe we can prove that it's gases not even shoot just kind of lower slowly through it and rain Wilson plays and Elon Musk Mark Zuckerberg style character who shows up that day to
[02:16:17] watch them what am I spending my billions of dollars on I do love the line where they're like what if it's not or what if you're wrong then you've wasted 1.5 billion dollars he's joking right nope that was pretty good but yeah so they're like if we send
[02:16:35] this submarine that we've already sent down there this cloud thingy we might find something I don't know what they're gonna make money on like the whole time all of rain Wilson doesn't make any sense I'm like what are you gonna do
[02:16:51] you're gonna kill the Megalodon and sell its meat like but you know the Megalodon was down there maybe searching for like super oil or something yeah maybe there's a deleted scene where he explains what they're looking for right why they need to if we understood this crazy magic
[02:17:05] ocean bottom part he thinks the Pacific Rim is down there that's what he thinks but it's bad ass so Jason Statham is he kills his friends die in a Megalodon attack on a submarine I guess anyways when he comes back they have a funny
[02:17:21] scene where he's just gonna defy the laws of physics and he's gonna go super fast underneath the water and he doesn't care if it's depressurized or because he's so badass it doesn't matter I'm gonna get down there funny thing
[02:17:35] about that section is I was telling my brother this because the reason I wasn't here two weeks ago was because Jake was in the hospital because he wasn't getting oxygen and so there's that thing behind him where like he's sinking in the submarine super fast and like
[02:17:49] the doctor back at the base is like oh man like he's losing all the gas in his blood and I see the numbers on the back and I'm like oh man his oxygen is at 83 and I'm like 83 it's shit like Jake's was 65 83 he's okay I'm like he's fine
[02:18:07] and he's also Jason Statham actually I love the little girl in it too at the beginning she was supposed to be cute but then she had some really cool scenes with Jason Statham in the submarine and then at the end with the guy who
[02:18:17] she's like my favorite part she's like calm down you know how to swim I did feel like I had some problems with the like the 90s caricature honestly that character got introduced and I was like it's just L Cool J's character from Deep Blue Sea again
[02:18:35] like it's that 90s a like cookie cutter black guy I mean he's got some really funny lines though the movie's fun it's literally about a giant shark two sharks okay that part was cool the coolest part was when
[02:18:53] it turns into full on what the movie should have been the whole time where he turns his sub and slices the megalod down with a metal he's like I'm gonna ramp this movie up right now yeah it just took so long for the shark to eat things
[02:19:09] that I was like oh man especially in a movie where you're gonna show me the shark a lot I wanna see the shark eat a helicopter out of the air which never really happened did it I kept waiting I was like that's what we all want
[02:19:23] is the shark to jump out and then they were dropping charges with the string hanging on the water and then they pulled the helicopter in the water yeah like that would have been a better ending to that sequence like you know rain wilson gets eaten
[02:19:35] and then like they should have jumped out and you know had the helicopter you didn't that's how it was just opened oh man michelle fifers here did you heard the doorknob turn right yeah moved okay I think Zach's punking us yeah Michael Myers mask oh god
[02:19:59] so yeah it was it's fun yeah oh but the sequence where they've caught and killed the shark and like you know it was kind of hard but it wasn't that hard and they're all celebrating and you know something's gonna go wrong and then like the bearded dude
[02:20:17] gets eaten when the bigger bigger shark comes up and eats the giant bait fish off of their boat and they're like oh my god now it's fun did that boat start with two arms because after the first one got ripped in the water
[02:20:31] like the shots before it capsized had another arm I don't even want to start talking about how many continuity problems there were that were obvious to me where like that's a section that's a good example where we see the cable break but then we see the crane
[02:20:47] arm get pulled off and then the crane arm is pulling the the cage down but the the cable broke so I don't understand how anything's connected like but I knew it was wrong and I didn't give a shit because I just wanted to see
[02:21:03] the giant glass cage get eaten by a shark um I was really hoping that that cage would get eaten and she would have to live like Jonah inside a shark until they killed the shark I thought that would be cool like I wanted those daughter to be like
[02:21:15] Jason save them are you gonna save my mom yes that's what I thought the first team was gonna reveal like yeah they're okay down in the sub but then they like pull back and it's like they're just floating away like yes or it's like they they can't hold
[02:21:27] your tracking like yeah like the tracker he realized that the sub is inside the shark that would be so much cooler oh shit then Satan has to track down the shark and get the sub out no he has to get he has to get his ship it's like
[02:21:41] it's like interspace style he has to get his ship eaten by the shark as well doc and then kill the shark from within Megalodon too he's got a pretty bunch of charges escaping the tinier pod yes I did read it it's a trilogy of books maybe more
[02:21:55] I'm just saying that it's a book when I saw it in the credits I was like no yeah it's really popular it's a popular series of books my goodness but whoever is writing because this movie is making like way too much money
[02:22:13] whoever is writing make two just give us a call we'll give you our Jason Statham gets a bigger shark you can have him typical Jason Statham the camera is behind his right shoulder and he kind of looks back and says I'm gonna dive in there
[02:22:29] and I'm gonna pull that shark out from limb to fucking limb there's no casting it's PG-13 well I guess you say fuck one time and you're not using it to like I'm gonna fuck that shark I'm gonna make sweet love to that fucking shark that would be okay
[02:22:45] I'm gonna have its pectoral fin you can't you can't say you're gonna fuck the shark but you can say you're gonna make sweet love to a fucking shark jump in there and grab me some of the shark teeth but keep one for yourself only a mag
[02:23:01] only a mag I like the way they end up killing the shark much better than the shallows I mean I like the shallows the shallows is a better movie but as far as ways to kill a shark it was fun
[02:23:17] like I said it's a fun movie just to watch it's interesting to think that Eli Roth was supposed to do this way back before Turtletop signed on so I don't know I'm gonna see it this week at some point yeah at no point does anybody
[02:23:31] eat another human in this movie my plan was to try to see this today after work but it didn't work out so I guess I'll have to give you my thoughts next week the whole part with the guy in the giant bubble that was pretty good in 3D
[02:23:49] especially when that bubble gets popped cool little effects in 3D yeah definitely cool I don't know if I'll see it again I don't know if I'm gonna spend 12 bucks on it yeah I mean tens enough yeah I don't know what we're gonna see next week nothing coming out
[02:24:07] crazy rich Asians we could do your film's version idea mine is uh you have a fucking long it took me the last one let's look and see what's coming out hold on hold on September's coming guys think about September next week we can see the AXL
