[00:00:24] And now on with the show.
[00:00:25] Hi, this is Dave Callagham, creator of Jean-Claude Van Johnson.
[00:00:31] And this is Peter Atencio, the director of Jean-Claude Van Johnson and you're listening
[00:00:35] to the Reel Nerds Podcast.
[00:01:00] Welcome to Reel Nerds Podcast unofficially the official podcast at Denver Pop Culture
[00:01:04] Con 2020 and also recently announced Top 10 Nerdtastic Podcast in Denver by Denver
[00:01:11] Westward.
[00:01:12] And you know what even makes it better?
[00:01:15] What even makes it better is that she took my description of myself and used it in the
[00:01:29] article.
[00:01:30] So yeah, my word pun where I said Reeler and I
[00:01:34] Holy Night Cracker everyone!
[00:01:40] Holy Night Cracker?
[00:01:41] Yeah, Night Cracker.
[00:01:42] That's racist.
[00:01:43] I thought he said Nutcracker.
[00:01:46] So yeah, so that was really actually kind of cool.
[00:01:48] Totally unexpected and it wasn't even a write-in as someone actually did research and picked
[00:01:52] us for it.
[00:01:53] So I mean now we're actually award winning.
[00:01:55] We're a Top 10 podcast.
[00:01:58] I've never been a Top 10 of anything.
[00:02:00] This is fun.
[00:02:01] Being listed as an award now.
[00:02:02] It is.
[00:02:03] It's Top 10 so technically.
[00:02:06] Critics Choice Awards sometimes do a Top 10.
[00:02:08] The National Board of Review does a Top 10.
[00:02:11] So that's technically an award.
[00:02:12] It wasn't numbered though so we don't know if we're one or ten.
[00:02:15] We're two because Motherfucker and a Cape was above us and we were right after that so I'm
[00:02:19] just going with that.
[00:02:20] That makes sense.
[00:02:21] Yeah, no it totally makes sense.
[00:02:23] Because it's not in alphabetical order so.
[00:02:25] Nutcracker.
[00:02:26] And the Four Realms in theaters last year?
[00:02:29] Is that only last year?
[00:02:31] Yeah.
[00:02:32] Wow.
[00:02:33] I want an oral history on how that production happened because it just seems way too intense
[00:02:37] and crazy if they needed two directors to finish it.
[00:02:42] But yeah, no cool.
[00:02:43] Thank you Denver Westworth for.
[00:02:44] Yeah.
[00:02:45] Totally unexpected.
[00:02:46] You know should we.
[00:02:47] And ass, heels and.
[00:02:54] That's funny.
[00:02:55] What?
[00:02:58] I don't know.
[00:02:59] Crows and nuts.
[00:03:00] Crows and nuts.
[00:03:01] Oh here we are.
[00:03:02] Oh that's his artistic special on Netflix.
[00:03:03] Crows and nuts.
[00:03:04] It's the sequel to Wieners and Farts.
[00:03:05] So as you've, if you've listened to this show over the last five years as
[00:03:07] Kelly gets older it's harder and harder to make him stop doing stuff because he's
[00:03:12] five and he doesn't care.
[00:03:14] And it's not that he's, you know, being naughty.
[00:03:16] It's constantly repeating yourself until you want to die and then you'll come home
[00:03:22] and you'll be hanging from a rafter and they're like why do you die?
[00:03:25] Oh because he asked his kid to pick up his jacket 350,000, 357 times and it's
[00:03:30] just wasn't happening.
[00:03:31] Wait a minute.
[00:03:32] Wait a minute.
[00:03:33] Kelly, go play your toys that I bought for you.
[00:03:36] You know, I'd say he would outgrow it but look at me.
[00:03:41] It's hard because he's not like being bad.
[00:03:43] He's just, no he's just being a kid.
[00:03:46] He's just being a kid.
[00:03:47] And it's getting, you think is it get older to be easier to get older
[00:03:50] to be a kid?
[00:03:51] Yeah.
[00:03:52] Yeah.
[00:03:53] Yeah.
[00:03:54] Yeah.
[00:03:55] Yeah.
[00:03:56] Yeah.
[00:03:57] Yeah.
[00:03:58] Yeah.
[00:03:59] Yeah.
[00:04:00] Yeah.
[00:04:01] Yeah.
[00:04:02] Yeah.
[00:04:03] Yeah.
[00:04:04] I mean, it's like, it was two weeks ago, so I also work out of the school and I was
[00:04:08] walking by his classroom and they have this activity room and he was lying
[00:04:12] against the chair just kicking the bookshelf.
[00:04:14] I don't know why he was doing it.
[00:04:16] Every other kid was playing, I think duck duck goose or something.
[00:04:19] And there was Kelly on a chair kicking the bookshelf repeatedly.
[00:04:24] He might be testing the integrity of the bookshelf.
[00:04:27] So Ryan, what does a Denver Westward Top 10 podcast do every week?
[00:04:32] What kind of things would we do?
[00:04:34] We see a movie and we podcast our experience of the world.
[00:04:39] This week we went to the sneak preview of J and Silent Bob reboot.
[00:04:44] Snugans.
[00:04:45] Stay tuned to the end of the show where we will spoil the film and tell you
[00:04:48] if you should see it or not.
[00:04:50] We also talk about movies that we've been doing for a while.
[00:04:52] We've been doing a lot of stuff like, we've been doing a lot of stuff
[00:04:55] like, we've been doing a lot of stuff like, we've been doing a lot of stuff
[00:04:57] like, we've been doing a lot of stuff like, we've been doing a lot of
[00:04:59] stuff like, we've been doing a lot of stuff like, we've been doing a lot
[00:05:01] of stuff like, we've been doing a lot of stuff like, we've been doing a lot
[00:05:03] of stuff like, we've been doing a lot of stuff like, we've been doing a
[00:05:05] lot of stuff like, we've been doing a lot of stuff.
[00:05:07] We also talk about movies we see throughout the week.
[00:05:09] Movie news and also, we're a Top 10 podcast in Denver.
[00:05:13] I don't know if you guys read the article.
[00:05:15] And also movies are coming out on Blu-ray.
[00:05:17] We also sometimes comment on people who look like they shit
[00:05:19] in their cereal.
[00:05:20] Yes.
[00:05:22] So stay tuned for that.
[00:05:25] Right on.
[00:05:26] Cool.
[00:05:27] Also, Corinne called in,
[00:05:29] and I'm going to be reviewing Cat on a Hot Tin Roof
[00:05:34] and Hoosiers.
[00:05:36] Hey nerds, Corinne here for part 30 of Catching the Classics
[00:05:39] where I watch famous and popular movies I've never seen before.
[00:05:42] And because this is part 30, at the end,
[00:05:45] I'll do a quick one sentence recap of all the movies I've watched
[00:05:49] from parts 21 to 29.
[00:05:52] But first, I'm going to be reviewing Cat on a Hot Tin Roof
[00:05:56] and Hoosiers.
[00:05:58] I'm a doubleheader this week.
[00:06:00] So let me tackle Cat on a Hot Tin Roof first.
[00:06:04] It's been a few weeks since I've seen it now,
[00:06:06] but I just remember it being very melodramatic
[00:06:11] and the dialogue being kind of stilted sometimes.
[00:06:14] It makes sense because it's based on a Tennessee Williams play.
[00:06:18] But yeah, it was a little jarring at first
[00:06:22] because you kind of get everyone's emotional baggage all at once.
[00:06:27] But then eventually you kind of see how that can lead to some pretty good
[00:06:33] and emotionally connected scenes with the main character
[00:06:39] and his dad there toward the end.
[00:06:42] And I mean, it was okay.
[00:06:45] I didn't love it. I didn't hate it though.
[00:06:48] But I don't know if I'd ever watch it again.
[00:06:51] But it was fine. The performances were great.
[00:06:54] Even the actors who played the kids were appropriately annoying.
[00:07:00] They're supposed to be annoying.
[00:07:02] But yeah, Elizabeth Taylor and Paul Newman did a great job.
[00:07:06] Everybody did a great job.
[00:07:08] So I'll give it three out of five stars.
[00:07:13] So now for Hoosiers.
[00:07:15] As most of you probably know, I'm a huge college basketball fan.
[00:07:19] And so this was kind of nice to watch a college or not a college basketball,
[00:07:25] but just a basketball movie.
[00:07:27] Oh man, I really I need it to be basketball season already you guys.
[00:07:31] Missed it so much.
[00:07:33] Anyway, but yeah, it was so it was kind of nice to watch a basketball movie.
[00:07:39] But oh yeah, it's that first third the first half or so was pretty pretty rough,
[00:07:47] pretty slow.
[00:07:49] And I don't know, it just wasn't well paced and I felt like it was just kind of awkwardly done.
[00:07:56] That it was just like kind of a lot of the same stuff over and over again of like he's not welcome in the town and everybody's like really mean to him and nobody wants to give him a chance and so by the time we got past the town hall meeting which side
[00:08:13] you know I'm pretty sure a town cannot vote a school employee out of their job.
[00:08:21] I've never seen or heard of anything like that.
[00:08:24] I think the school board could do it but not the fucking town.
[00:08:29] Anyway, but yeah so once we got past the town hall scene where Jimmy comes in he's like hey you know I'll play if coach stays but if he goes I go and then of course everybody immediately changes their
[00:08:42] vote which yeah I guess I didn't understand why Jimmy all of a sudden was like yeah I think it's time for me to start playing and I want to play for this guy specifically.
[00:08:55] I mean there wasn't really any build up for that so I guess he did it because he appreciated the coach like giving him space or something.
[00:09:05] Yeah, it wasn't really addressed.
[00:09:07] Anyway so once they got past that you know and they start really getting into the sports movie rhythm it was predictable but it was also engaging and I was invested.
[00:09:18] The kids who play the basketball players all did a great job and oh yeah Barbara Hershey's in this.
[00:09:28] It's kind of weird because I've just been rewatching Once Upon a Time and she's a recurring guest star in that in the first and second seasons.
[00:09:37] And so it was like oh my gosh Barbara Hershey she does a great job.
[00:09:42] She doesn't have much to work with but what she does have she does a great job with so yeah and that's mostly just being a love interest to Gene Hackman's coach.
[00:09:54] But I mean they're cute and they're scenes together I guess.
[00:09:58] I didn't like hate the romantic subplot but I didn't love it either.
[00:10:03] It's a basketball movie let's watch them basketball here people.
[00:10:11] Yeah, I actually really liked this side plot with Shooter.
[00:10:17] And you know it's to the point where when he comes in to the sectionals and he's drunk and I was like oh no Shooter no.
[00:10:25] So I was really invested in that subplot and honestly I thought he was a more interesting character than the actual coach was.
[00:10:32] But yeah it's like I said the ending is predictable but I felt really really bad for like all the players in the state championship.
[00:10:46] Because the photographers like their cameras keep flashing constantly.
[00:10:52] And I'm like especially for the kids from you know the small town the main kids like they are probably not used to all these cameras all the time.
[00:11:02] And of course nowadays you go to a basketball game and nobody's using their flash because you know our cameras are way better.
[00:11:10] But it's just like oh my gosh like could you imagine trying to make a shot and then like 50 cameras all go off at once.
[00:11:17] Shit.
[00:11:19] Oh and side note the team they play in the state championship seems to be an integrated school.
[00:11:27] And if remember the Titans has taught me anything that school because it was an integrated school in the 1950s.
[00:11:34] Yeah they probably didn't have like a great time.
[00:11:38] They were probably facing some challenges of their own mostly being racism but yeah yikes.
[00:11:47] But I felt bad for that team at the end when they lost.
[00:11:51] It's like yeah I'm excited that the main guys won but oh on the last second shot like that.
[00:11:59] That's why you love March Madness even though this was high school but same principle.
[00:12:05] Anyway so I'm gonna give Hoosiers three and a half out of five stars.
[00:12:12] I didn't like I liked it more than Kat on the hot tin roof but I don't feel like it's out of four.
[00:12:17] So if we have to do the full star system I'll say a three but I think a three and a half is good.
[00:12:25] So let me give you guys the quick rundown of everything I've watched from parts 21 through 29.
[00:12:35] And everything is based on the five star system so just keep that in mind.
[00:12:40] First up Dr. Javago pretty solid historical fiction romance four out of five stars.
[00:12:47] Top Gun. I am not the target demographic for this movie three stars four weddings in a funeral.
[00:12:56] Some parts are funny but the emotional core doesn't land like I would have wanted it to three and a half or four stars.
[00:13:04] Room with a view weird but funny and has a talented cast who gives amazing performances four stars.
[00:13:14] Scott Pilgrim versus the world a movie that keeps you entertained with its style action and premise three and a half or four stars.
[00:13:23] Top Hat for me it works better as a comedy than it does as a musical three and a half or four stars.
[00:13:31] Rocky lackluster as a character movie and disappointing as a boxing movie two stars.
[00:13:40] Grave of the fireflies depressing but a very well made movie about how war can devastate even the most innocent of people four stars.
[00:13:51] Gremlins delightfully fun overall but a bit dark and disturbing three or three and a half stars.
[00:13:59] So couple things of note I will be posting this this recap of parts 21 through 30 on the website here in a couple weeks.
[00:14:13] The recaps for one through 10 and 11 through 20 are already up on the website so go check those out.
[00:14:20] I did start catching the classics about one year ago so that's why I'm trying to like get caught up on all these things now.
[00:14:29] I also started a dedicated Twitter for catching the classics so if you kind of want to see me watch them kind of in real time sort of or at least get like a sneak peek of what I'm watching and what I think of it.
[00:14:46] You can give me a follow it's at catching classic so no S at the end just singular at catching classic on Twitter.
[00:14:55] And I'll also be posting links to different articles that I post and I will be posting some more articles not only about catching the classics but about some other stuff here in the coming weeks.
[00:15:08] So make sure to keep up with real nerds podcast dot com go check out my stuff on there everybody else's stuff.
[00:15:15] Ryan did some great posts for the tell you ride horror show so give that a check that out.
[00:15:24] And so for part 31 I will let you guys pick again we're going to do something a little bit different this time.
[00:15:32] See how it goes.
[00:15:34] I will let you guys choose between super bad and bad boys so the polls should be up for that go vote if it's still open.
[00:15:45] And what I'm going to do is I'm going to watch it sober but I will review it tipsy not drunk because you don't get drunk in my house.
[00:15:55] But I will review it tipsy which should make for some interesting shenanigans so thanks nerds for playing these on the show.
[00:16:05] Thanks for everybody for listening reading the posts on the website and everything.
[00:16:10] And like I said give me a follow if you want at catching classic on Twitter and I'll talk to you guys next time with either super bad or bad boys.
[00:16:21] So hope you had fun at your movie this week and I'll talk to you soon bye.
[00:16:26] So you know what sucks college basketball Korean no one cares.
[00:16:30] And you know what else is really funny about that is hey is Kansas even going to be able to play in the tournament this year because I got all those penalties by the NCAA.
[00:16:39] So I don't know so I guess the only way Kansas can win is by cheating.
[00:16:43] Wow shots fired I didn't know what's going on.
[00:16:46] The only thing I remember about Hoosiers was I wish I could cheat like Bill Self and still have a job.
[00:16:51] Yeah man.
[00:16:54] Now the only thing I remember about Hoosiers is Dennis Hopper got an Oscar nom for it.
[00:16:58] It's all right.
[00:16:59] I actually like she didn't like Kat on a hot tin roof.
[00:17:02] I did.
[00:17:03] Yeah it's a good movie.
[00:17:04] It is.
[00:17:05] It's one of those movies where they say the title in the movie like I feel like a cat on a hot tin roof.
[00:17:09] Yeah I mean she's right.
[00:17:10] I mean there is some melodramatic moments to it but.
[00:17:13] But it's it's it's that era.
[00:17:15] It's those actors.
[00:17:16] It's that time and place.
[00:17:18] We're still exploring how emotions can go.
[00:17:21] Man it's still fun.
[00:17:22] Brad have you seen either of those films.
[00:17:24] I haven't.
[00:17:25] No.
[00:17:26] I fully endorse.
[00:17:27] I fully endorse her watching Superbad though.
[00:17:29] No.
[00:17:30] Oh yeah I already voted for it.
[00:17:31] Yeah I put it up like a minute ago and I already voted for Superbad.
[00:17:34] Superbad.
[00:17:35] Because I'll let our listeners in on a secret.
[00:17:37] Bad Boys Sucks Dick.
[00:17:39] That's why we're the top ten podcasts.
[00:17:43] Yeah because well here's the thing.
[00:17:44] It's one of those movies that has this huge following and I never understood it.
[00:17:49] It's it's it's overrated.
[00:17:53] That is for certain.
[00:17:55] I mean I.
[00:17:56] It's well made like technically like visually like it looks nice but it's Michael Bay.
[00:18:01] All Michael Bay movies.
[00:18:02] Yeah.
[00:18:03] Technically he knows how to make films.
[00:18:04] Yeah I mean like I have no problem making Michael Bay cry if he's listening to this.
[00:18:09] No I think Michael Bay can direct the hell out of action.
[00:18:11] Oh I know he can.
[00:18:12] I've seen it before.
[00:18:13] I wish he would do it again and I well wait he's doing that he's got that Ryan Reynolds movie coming to Netflix doesn't
[00:18:19] I yeah okay what was he like that.
[00:18:21] Yeah.
[00:18:22] Cool.
[00:18:23] Thanks Corinne.
[00:18:24] Yeah.

[00:18:44] How does the Excitebike music go.
[00:18:51] It's what I just played.
[00:18:54] Oh you playing it sweet.
[00:18:56] You're not listening to the episodes.
[00:18:58] When's the last time you played it.
[00:19:00] It's two weeks in a row I've put it on there.
[00:19:02] I haven't listened to episodes in two weeks.
[00:19:04] It's like.
[00:19:05] Sweet.
[00:19:06] Now you don't need me to sing a theme song anymore because you picked a way cooler one.
[00:19:17] Yeah sweet.
[00:19:18] I might do my old voice over over it though so maybe not today because.
[00:19:24] You gotta do it in tune with the music and what like.
[00:19:27] Control the background noise at all.
[00:19:29] Brad's going around town.
[00:19:32] I'm going to do a top time podcast with like obnoxious background noise.
[00:19:36] He's not obnoxious come on Brad.
[00:19:38] He was banging the chair.
[00:19:40] You gotta learn patience my friend.
[00:19:42] Why I can't you can.
[00:19:43] I never mind.
[00:19:45] It's like he's not obnoxious he's just a voice.
[00:19:50] Oh yeah what's going on.
[00:19:52] I'm waiting for you.
[00:19:54] This week at The Drive In is the last weekend of The Drive In.
[00:19:58] Boo.
[00:19:59] For the season.
[00:20:00] Boo snow.
[00:20:01] Yeah.
[00:20:02] Boo weather.
[00:20:03] They didn't even get to Halloween but.
[00:20:04] Boo Christmas.
[00:20:05] Yeah financially makes sense not to add more movies so you can see 47 hours Joker and.
[00:20:14] Rambo Last Blood.
[00:20:15] Rambo Last Blood.
[00:20:16] Yeah.
[00:20:17] A grim lineup.
[00:20:18] A grim lineup.
[00:20:19] Yes.
[00:20:20] So and then the midnight the Esquire is the Rocky Horror Picture Show October 25th
[00:20:27] and 26th I guess.
[00:20:28] Oh my God pick something else.
[00:20:29] Do the time warp again guys.
[00:20:30] The Halloween show is supposed to be insane.
[00:20:32] I think it's so amazing that how many times that like how many people go.
[00:20:37] Yeah every month unbelievable.
[00:20:39] Yeah I've never been to their performance of it but yeah it's just amazing you know
[00:20:45] ever since it's been paying attention to the Esquire has been going on.
[00:20:47] Oh yeah no it's so.
[00:20:49] Yeah yeah but yeah the midnight lineup though it's like it's been Halloween
[00:20:55] Nightmare on Elm Street this like I just want to see different.
[00:20:59] Yeah horror movies like those are like the you know I always popular hipster
[00:21:04] horror movies I've always said when we if we could ever get you know real nerds presents
[00:21:08] I would do you know Friday 13th final chapter or yeah they're actually doing Friday
[00:21:13] 13th in December the original the original yeah yeah I've seen that one like five
[00:21:17] times yeah yeah I want some deeper cuts we're cuts yeah you know like the only
[00:21:22] time they've done deeper cuts is when they choose to make fun of it from Ohio
[00:21:25] Horror which I don't mind riffing on a movie but like show it without the riffing
[00:21:29] yeah yeah but like there's tons like scream factory titles that would make
[00:21:33] great midnight screenings I'm sure there's probably rights issues or
[00:21:36] whatever but well I mean I'm pretty sure you could get any film if you wanted
[00:21:40] it there well the Hitchcock screening so we were going to at the
[00:21:44] Sharties the theater manager said that dealing with the distributors has
[00:21:48] been a nightmare lately but she wouldn't go into why especially Disney because
[00:21:52] they're like taking away all the Fox and Disney titles from yeah midnight and
[00:21:56] things and they have some kind of deal with Warner Brothers I don't know what it
[00:22:00] is but studios are locking down and trying to make you go to the streaming
[00:22:04] yeah but Alamo still gets some really good stuff I mean they're showing
[00:22:10] Abaddon Castello meet Frankenstein on the week that I won't be here but
[00:22:13] yeah you know that's pretty cool that they're showing an Abaddon Castello
[00:22:15] movie well did you see am see even has a streaming app now yeah like don't go to
[00:22:20] theater now just stay home and watch movies what are they showing on their
[00:22:24] app of the they started to put movies out I when I went to the movie this a
[00:22:28] movie this week they had like amc studios I forget what movie it is it's
[00:22:33] some dorky looking horror film yeah but an app or something but it's new
[00:22:38] and older releases though so like yeah you don't have to go to a physical
[00:22:41] place so they're even like kneecapping their own business they're like hey we
[00:22:45] should just do the streaming thing that Disney's doing and not pay property taxes
[00:22:49] and leases on huge multiplexes it's all because Edward Norton called them out
[00:22:55] last week that's the only reason Edward Norton's fault streaming things
[00:23:02] like that is I mean what is amc offering though I mean I don't I know
[00:23:05] I don't know if they were launching one but I mean because even the criterion
[00:23:09] one couldn't last film struck so well they're doing their own now
[00:23:15] well yeah but I mean they're offering confusion that's what they're offering
[00:23:18] like I think it's the new releases so you just go see like Rise of Skywalk
[00:23:21] or opening weekend at home watch them yeah that's a dumb idea there do
[00:23:27] you think there's no way Disney would let them do that would they
[00:23:30] I mean if theaters start going away and doing this like there's no choice
[00:23:35] I don't think they'll go away they still make billions of dollars a year
[00:23:39] I don't know maybe I'm wrong but I want I looked at a little bit of the
[00:23:43] roster and it's like oh stuff like Venom and
[00:23:46] that's an old movie though there's a song that goes the times they are
[00:23:50] a change in Ron Burgundy never heard that song
[00:23:53] are you looking it up yeah I'm looking right now all right cool
[00:23:56] so you know just guessing we can yeah I guess we should actually
[00:24:00] it's called yeah movie streaming website what
[00:24:04] now I can yeah it's called yeah TV
[00:24:07] no yeah is that like the TV channel with AMC
[00:24:11] I'm talking about the movie theater chain because it was like AMC something
[00:24:15] oh maybe it is AMC networks yeah let's do
[00:24:18] they have to play in theaters for a period of 90 days
[00:24:22] so it's almost like it's similar to the Netflix
[00:24:26] but we raise come out now in three and a half four months so yeah
[00:24:30] well though oh yeah it's it's it's getting ever closer to that
[00:24:34] Soderbergh model this isn't in news by the way because we didn't know about this until just
[00:24:38] now it's three to five ninety nine to rent the movie
[00:24:42] 1999 1999 device was basically just it's iTunes
[00:24:46] or Amazon video but with AMC
[00:24:49] yeah how many a fan dango has something similar to that too like
[00:24:53] if they don't want the theaters anymore just let me know and I'll buy it
[00:24:57] from you for a dollar because it seems like you don't value them enough as it is
[00:25:01] oh well I'll go as long as they're still standing
[00:25:05] it's weird that AMC is a publicly traded
[00:25:09] company I don't know if I would ever invest publicly into a movie theater
[00:25:13] not that I mean I do anyways with me going there
[00:25:17] but you're talking about stock wise yeah but stock wise you're being held hostage
[00:25:21] by what movies are being released not just that but also like
[00:25:25] fluctuations in the market wrong concessions
[00:25:29] being driven down the concessions makes up a big chunk of their money because the studios
[00:25:33] take more off the first couple of weekends when these are popular
[00:25:37] and then when they just stick around that's when they pick up all the loose change
[00:25:41] from their run that's why like Inception was really good for our theaters when
[00:25:45] it ran there because that thing stayed around for four months so like after
[00:25:49] the month and a half period
[00:25:53] they got all the gross so yeah
[00:25:57] movies are coming out on Blu-ray and maybe we'll get some
[00:26:01] Blu-rays coming out
[00:26:05] DVD releases in Blu-ray
[00:26:09] were you wanting Charlie's Angels full throttle
[00:26:13] in 4K then yes
[00:26:17] Blu-ray and digital but I'm waiting until it's ultra HD
[00:26:21] but that cover looks unnecessarily 90s fun
[00:26:25] because honestly McGy only looks the best when he's in 4K
[00:26:29] or when he's refusing to get on an airplane to do a movie
[00:26:33] but you can also get the original Charlie's Angels in 4K
[00:26:37] the first one's fun I like it it's fine
[00:26:41] but don't be afraid of the dark is my favorite release of the week
[00:26:45] it's Warner Archive this is the original television movie that inspired the Guillermo
[00:26:49] remake which is fine yeah that's fun
[00:26:53] but I guess the biggest release of the week probably
[00:26:57] is the 2019 Lion King remake
[00:27:01] in 4K and Blu-ray steelbook looks
[00:27:05] pretty neat I guess I don't know I wasn't the biggest
[00:27:09] fan of the movie but whatever yeah that's alright
[00:27:13] you know what's another great one though Kino Lobos putting out trilogy of terror 2
[00:27:17] and you can get the little zoomie doll stabbing people I remember seeing that movie
[00:27:21] was that a direct video because I think that was a direct video on the first one was a TV made
[00:27:25] movie yeah something like that oh yeah but it's fun
[00:27:29] the first one with Karen Blacks fun though yeah no it's really fun
[00:27:33] we used to care about making TV movies a long time ago oh yeah those were the
[00:27:37] other called Netflix Netflix or Hulu or whatever
[00:27:41] Criterion is putting out When We Were Kings which is
[00:27:45] the story about the rumble in the jungle fight between
[00:27:49] Ali and Foreman if Criterion's putting it out
[00:27:53] I might want to pick it up because I'm sure they'll make that shit look very nice
[00:27:57] there's a DC animated movie called Wonder Woman Bloodline coming out
[00:28:01] I have no idea about this fellas first animated Wonder Woman was pretty good
[00:28:05] that's the one with Rosario Dawson yeah right yeah I think she's reprising a role
[00:28:09] ooh we'll be talking about Rosario Dawson later I'm sure
[00:28:13] Kino Lobos putting out another movie called Parasite 3D
[00:28:17] not to be confused with the new Parasite movie coming out this year
[00:28:21] this is a horror movie and it just looks like it's a bug
[00:28:25] and then the word 3D nice coming out at you
[00:28:29] from the creature's mouth I'm not gonna lie I think I won't be able to sleep tonight
[00:28:33] Blue Underground is putting out a movie called The Killer of Dolls
[00:28:37] to which my question is who would want to kill a doll
[00:28:41] unless it was a Chucky doll I suppose
[00:28:45] and then the Veronica Mars
[00:28:49] reboot first season is coming out on Blu-ray so you can pick that up
[00:28:53] that's really confusing because it's actually the fourth season but I guess it's the first season
[00:28:57] of the Rewind I guess they're just not knowing how to
[00:29:01] market that out you can also get
[00:29:05] Satanic Panic on Blu-ray which is a movie with Rebecca Romain
[00:29:09] I have no idea what the movie is but I've heard mixed things about it
[00:29:13] but I've heard people like you and others say that they
[00:29:17] yeah anyway go watch that season one of
[00:29:21] Shudder's show Nosfar Ahtu with Zachary Kento
[00:29:25] is out on DVD you can check that out I haven't seen it yet
[00:29:29] I haven't either I've heard good things I like the idea of it
[00:29:33] and then
[00:29:37] there's a bit of a heartthrob before there was a Keri Grant in the world
[00:29:41] Ryan there was Rudolph Valentino and you can see in Kino
[00:29:45] Private's collection they have the eagle
[00:29:49] he was most famous for being the Sheik like a Sheik character and the women
[00:29:53] would flock to those movies and
[00:29:57] he talks about them anymore and it's probably because he's just phased on in life
[00:30:01] and then the David Crosby documentary
[00:30:05] Remember My Name is coming out so you can check that out
[00:30:09] and that is Blu-ray's
[00:30:13] Cool unspooled that movie news
[00:30:17] Real News are EEL remember how clever I am with puns
[00:30:21] I don't know if you've read this article on the Denver Westward
[00:30:25] It's Real News
[00:30:33] So I guess on Monday get your Star Wars tickets
[00:30:37] Yes, actually that was one of my news segments
[00:30:41] The ticket sales will be arriving soon
[00:30:45] They will also be doing a marathon of all three trilogies
[00:30:49] Dude I did the first two trilogies
[00:30:53] The Force Awakens when it came out
[00:30:57] Started at midnight that night before and I stayed there that whole time
[00:31:01] And you know what
[00:31:05] I might do this one
[00:31:09] Madness this is Star Wars
[00:31:13] I did the Rambo marathon and I was like yep I don't know how people do like Marvel and Star Wars
[00:31:17] I think I'm going to do the dismember at Westminster next week and that's four movies
[00:31:21] Marvel is interesting
[00:31:25] I would not want to do the whole 22 but I liked how they did Captain America Civil Wars
[00:31:29] Where they showed Captain America 1, Avengers 1, Winter Soldier and Age of Ultron
[00:31:33] And then you watched Civil War and it was reasonably
[00:31:37] Houred I only got there at 9am and I was able to get through all of it
[00:31:41] But yeah all of this will happen right after a new trailer drops
[00:31:45] During Monday Night Football which seems to be their whole bag
[00:31:49] And they will be doing the next two films
[00:31:53] The Last Motion ESPN's Own by Disney
[00:31:57] Yep that's true but yeah so some fun Star Wars news for y'all
[00:32:01] Yeah that's coming fast man month and a half
[00:32:05] Two months
[00:32:08] Yeah exactly two months I think
[00:32:10] Dude that's insane we're getting to Star Wars
[00:32:14] It feels like nobody is talking about it
[00:32:18] We're getting to Mickey Mouse documentary from Morgan Neville
[00:32:22] I know I saw that
[00:32:24] They don't have a release date though
[00:32:26] Yeah but I like the idea of it if it's just focusing on
[00:32:30] Mickey as a character and his pop culture aesthetic
[00:32:34] And especially if you've seen
[00:32:38] If you don't know who Morgan Neville is audience he did Won't You Be My Neighbor
[00:32:42] They'll Love Me When I'm Dead
[00:32:46] And they're going to be talking about
[00:32:48] Gore Vidal and William F. Buckley and their debate on Dick Cavett show
[00:32:52] And I believe that's what it was
[00:32:56] Yes it was Cavett show
[00:32:58] If I'm wrong go ahead and tweet at me or whatever I don't freaking care
[00:33:02] But yeah he's a talented documentarian
[00:33:06] Won't You Be My Neighbor is an amazing film about Fred Rogers
[00:33:10] So you should all check that out
[00:33:14] The thing on Disney's front is that I guess that live action Pinocchio remake
[00:33:18] Is still a go and we're getting Robert Zemeckis to do it
[00:33:22] I'm down with that idea
[00:33:26] I haven't really been keeping up with Zemeckis
[00:33:30] Within the last year so I didn't see his Steve Carell movie
[00:33:34] Yeah he doesn't make movies that often actually this is a pretty quick turnaround for him
[00:33:38] Yeah but he's a very talented director
[00:33:42] Anytime he's worked for Disney it seems to have worked out for more or less
[00:33:46] I don't remember his Christmas Carol movie with Jim Carrey that much
[00:33:50] I don't remember it I remember having a bad dream
[00:33:54] That that movie would end with a CGI wrapping
[00:33:57] Scrooge and thankfully that did not happen
[00:34:00] Again I have weird nightmares but moving on though
[00:34:04] Brad did you want a Galaxy Quest documentary?
[00:34:08] I mean the Blu-ray has a pretty substantial one
[00:34:12] Well I guess now there's a new documentary coming out
[00:34:16] called Never Surrender a Galaxy Quest documentary that tracks how the
[00:34:20] film became a cult classic
[00:34:24] I'm actually surprised it's not like a huge special edition somewhere
[00:34:28] There's a 20th anniversary edition but nobody's trying to grasp onto it
[00:34:32] Yeah but there's no special documentaries or anything on it is there
[00:34:36] Not until now
[00:34:38] That's what I mean it sounds like it'd be prime for a shout select or something
[00:34:42] Maybe they will it's owned by Dreamworks I think
[00:34:46] So maybe that's a new Universal's catalog
[00:34:49] Yeah it's a universal because Spielberg sold it
[00:34:52] Maybe just Spielberg doesn't want to do anything
[00:34:55] Maybe that's what he's upset about
[00:34:59] Most days is Galaxy Quest and just holding onto it
[00:35:02] Because he doesn't want to give it up to anybody
[00:35:05] We've got some news about The Batman
[00:35:08] The Matt Reeves movie
[00:35:10] First off is the score will be done by Michael Giacano
[00:35:13] I mean he's pretty much doing every superhero movie why not
[00:35:16] Yeah sure, Spider-Man score is awesome
[00:35:18] Dude I like Giacano a lot
[00:35:20] His upscore is heartwarming and makes you cry
[00:35:23] He's good
[00:35:25] But the biggest news for The Batman is that Paul Dano is going to be the
[00:35:28] Riddler and Zoey Krabitz is going to be Catwoman
[00:35:31] I'm down with these casting choices this sounds like it's going to be a fun rockin time
[00:35:34] I'm interested to see what story they're doing at
[00:35:37] I think the idea of him going to Arkham is really cool
[00:35:40] And you know I always thought the Riddler if you made him like the Riddler in the comics
[00:35:44] Would be an awesome on-screen villain
[00:35:47] Where and you force Batman to be a detective
[00:35:50] I think would be really cool
[00:35:52] I think that's why he's going to be in the movie
[00:35:54] And I mean Matt Reeves makes really good movies so I have faith that the movie will be pretty good
[00:35:58] We'll see
[00:36:00] And it will truly be a planet of Batman
[00:36:03] But yeah I mean
[00:36:05] Nope
[00:36:06] I like Dano, I wasn't expecting that joke to land
[00:36:08] Not even close
[00:36:10] That broke worse than Batman's back
[00:36:15] You think that joke was funny did you?
[00:36:18] So Alexander Payne had a movie
[00:36:21] That was being developed at
[00:36:24] It looks like Netflix I want to say
[00:36:28] I can't remember
[00:36:29] The movie set up with Mads Mickelson based on a Danish journalist that just got pulled a week before filming
[00:36:34] So pretty interesting because apparently the journalist who
[00:36:38] The movie is based on had a clause in his contract where he could pull out at any minute
[00:36:43] Before that movie gets impregnated
[00:36:47] I don't know anyway but that sucks for Alexander Payne
[00:36:53] Moving on though to people who will be as far as we know
[00:36:57] Getting new projects
[00:36:59] Ryan, your hero, the one and only
[00:37:02] Sam, give me some sugar baby Ramey
[00:37:06] Is going to be returning to direct a horror movie
[00:37:08] Written by the guys who wrote Freddy vs. Jason
[00:37:11] The project is being described as misery meets cast away
[00:37:15] Two very different concepts
[00:37:19] Maybe some secluded person on an island or something
[00:37:23] I'm not sure
[00:37:25] I hope it's Bruce Campbell just stuck on the island
[00:37:27] He's being a little cagey when they ask him about the plot
[00:37:31] I like that
[00:37:34] There was also additional news that I guess they found a director to do a new Evil Dead movie
[00:37:38] That he and Campbell will be producing but they didn't say if it's a Mia story
[00:37:42] Or if it's just something different
[00:37:45] I would like Mia to return
[00:37:48] But yeah, the movie will be written by Mark Swift and Damien Shannon
[00:37:51] Which I actually love their stories on both Never Sleep Again
[00:37:55] And Crystal Lake Memories about the making of Freddy vs. Jason
[00:37:58] Because those poor guys had to pick up some huge old sack
[00:38:02] Do we care that Jared Leto tried to stop Todd Phillips from making that Joker movie?
[00:38:09] It just kind of makes me even angrier at him than I was before
[00:38:13] If I was Warner Brothers, I would send him a letter
[00:38:16] And when he opens it up, it's just really big words that says, fuck you
[00:38:19] Does he really have to be told that nobody liked his interpretation of Joker?
[00:38:24] No, but it shouldn't be a letter
[00:38:26] It should be like a note inside a package and in that package a pie hits Jared Leto in the face
[00:38:31] Like Alpha Spring, like in a cartoon
[00:38:33] And you know I've...
[00:38:35] Before he was the Joker, I read stories on the Hollywood Reporter that he's kind of a bitch to work with
[00:38:41] And then you read stuff like this and you go really, nobody is bigger than the franchise
[00:38:47] And they don't care
[00:38:49] Yeah, apparently within that article you read that like...
[00:38:52] Because this is coming off of Hollywood Reporter and not everything's confirmed so this is all alleged
[00:38:56] But apparently even Ayer didn't even like Leto's performance and was disappointed by it
[00:39:02] No, I was reading that he cut tons of his stuff out
[00:39:05] Yeah, for that reason
[00:39:07] You know why you didn't see all those shots that were in the trailer in the movie?
[00:39:10] It's because they probably weren't good
[00:39:12] But people do like that movie so I don't want to give them too much
[00:39:17] Yeah, that's why she's getting a new movie that looks even better
[00:39:21] Yeah, the movie looks fun
[00:39:22] Yep, looks like fun
[00:39:23] And even McGregor is going to be a bad guy
[00:39:25] And I like to see him be a bad guy
[00:39:27] Yeah, we'll see
[00:39:28] He's good in stuff
[00:39:29] Yes
[00:39:30] Watch Christopher Robin and Fargo
[00:39:32] The last piece of news though is that
[00:39:34] Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is a movie that came out in July
[00:39:37] And around this time was going to be the release of that film in China
[00:39:41] That is now no longer happening because the Chinese government does not like the portrayal of Bruce Lee
[00:39:47] More specifically, Bruce Lee's daughter pled to the Chinese government to make them cut the scene
[00:39:56] Because she feels it's disrespectful to her father
[00:40:00] And the update of this as of late is that Quentin Tarantino is refusing to recut the movie
[00:40:06] Really people can't take a joke, they do know that's not real, right?
[00:40:11] I think the bigger issue is asking how many filmmakers are going to rearrange and recut their films for international audiences
[00:40:19] If I was going to say no
[00:40:20] Because here's the thing, it's people that are judging you who haven't seen it
[00:40:24] And it's like a joke in the movie
[00:40:29] Because who even knows if it happened
[00:40:32] It's based off of just like...it's Tarantino's version of Bruce Lee
[00:40:36] Yeah, that's what I mean
[00:40:37] Even in the movie they don't even really say if Brad Pitt really did that to Bruce Lee
[00:40:43] Well, I mean also because Brad Pitt's character is fictional
[00:40:46] Yeah, it doesn't exist
[00:40:47] But you know at the end of the day, my concern is less with that whole situation
[00:40:53] Because that's a whole other can of worms
[00:40:55] The bigger thing is how many other films get asked to get recut
[00:40:59] Oh, they're all the time
[00:41:00] Provide the Chinese market
[00:41:01] Like Iron Man 3 apparently has a whole other subplot in the Chinese version
[00:41:06] Because it was a co-production with China to a certain extent
[00:41:12] But yeah, we'll see how that all pans out
[00:41:16] Because as of now, once upon a time in Hollywood will not be released in China
[00:41:22] So yeah, that's movie news unless I missed anything
[00:41:30] Anyway, that's news
[00:41:31] I said tickle yards
[00:41:32] Tickle yards
[00:41:33] Tickle yards
[00:41:35] Tickle yards
[00:41:36] Tickle yards
[00:41:37] I said sword and fetch
[00:41:39] Died the life
[00:41:40] Tickles
[00:41:43] Oh, right
[00:41:44] Yeah, right, Brad
[00:41:46] It's gonna be amazing to listen to later
[00:41:50] Anyway, that's it
[00:41:53] That's enough
[00:41:54] One pizza
[00:41:55] Okay
[00:41:56] Getting mad, Brad? You're like all red
[00:42:00] I was out on the sun today
[00:42:01] So I was just coincidental
[00:42:04] I was like, I can't imagine someone at home trying to listen to the information that Zach is putting out
[00:42:09] It's like sitting in a movie theater and someone's gonna find you
[00:42:13] And how much did it pick up when he was talking to me?
[00:42:15] Not that much
[00:42:16] I was gonna say which one is Ryan, I'll just slide it down every time he jumps up there
[00:42:20] It's C or 3
[00:42:22] But yeah, that's news
[00:42:23] Cool
[00:42:24] We also watch movies throughout the week
[00:42:25] In a segment I call watching movies throughout the week
[00:42:29] Or what we've been watching
[00:42:32] So, yeah, this is the stuff we've been watching
[00:42:36] Or whatever movies
[00:42:37] Brad?
[00:42:39] What'd you watch this week?
[00:42:42] I was leaving Space for the thing
[00:42:43] This week
[00:42:45] God, what did I watch?
[00:42:46] A lot of old stuff
[00:42:48] Ninja Scroll
[00:42:49] Sweet
[00:42:50] I haven't seen that in like 15 years
[00:42:52] Is that still really hardcore?
[00:42:53] Yeah, I forgot how badass it is
[00:42:56] Like if the 10
[00:42:59] The 10 demons or 8 demons of Shimon or something
[00:43:02] I totally forgot about that part of the thing
[00:43:04] Like I just remember like the main guy and the girl
[00:43:06] Isn't his job is he's gonna go kill them all or something?
[00:43:08] I can't remember the plot really
[00:43:09] Yeah, there's like this
[00:43:12] Main demon guy
[00:43:14] Who is supposedly dead
[00:43:16] Like he had his head cut off
[00:43:17] And then he's got these demons of Shimon Minions
[00:43:21] Who are
[00:43:23] Out to like complete his work or whatever plan he was doing
[00:43:26] And the rock guy's like Tessai
[00:43:28] Yeah, Tessai's the first one
[00:43:29] He's got this badass like
[00:43:32] Thanos like blade
[00:43:34] That's right
[00:43:35] That cuts through everything and right away he throws it
[00:43:37] And it just obliterates all these ninjas
[00:43:40] And they just explode and
[00:43:42] Yeah, I always remember the part where he's coming up with the
[00:43:45] Like the homosexual guy
[00:43:48] And he's like let him go Tessai
[00:43:49] But Darn, we'll kill him
[00:43:51] Yeah
[00:43:52] And then he gets the fucking blade in his head
[00:43:54] And it's
[00:43:55] Yeah, and the thing is
[00:43:56] He's got like rock skin
[00:44:02] Okay
[00:44:03] There it is
[00:44:04] Alright, that's enough
[00:44:05] Last one
[00:44:06] Dude
[00:44:07] Jesus Christ
[00:44:08] You did them all
[00:44:11] Yeah, so he's got rock skin
[00:44:12] That's why people can't defeat him
[00:44:14] But then I forget the main character's name
[00:44:17] Jube
[00:44:18] Yeah, he finds some way around it
[00:44:20] Like
[00:44:21] Yeah, I remember because that blade comes back to him
[00:44:23] And chops his hand off
[00:44:24] And then the blade goes in his forehead
[00:44:25] Yeah, and then he slides down
[00:44:26] And it's like face cuts in half
[00:44:28] And yeah, it's pretty awesome
[00:44:30] And then there's a bunch of other demons like the one girl who turns into a snake all the time
[00:44:33] Oh, that's right
[00:44:34] Gosh, it's been so long
[00:44:35] And then the one guy has like the string that follows you anywhere
[00:44:40] And like he can electrocute you
[00:44:41] That's pretty cool
[00:44:42] Yeah
[00:44:43] It's awesome
[00:44:44] Yeah, I haven't seen a movie in so long
[00:44:45] I mean the story is not
[00:44:46] Like oh what a great story
[00:44:47] But it's just the art and the graphic nature of a lot of it
[00:44:51] And the action is pretty badass if I remember right
[00:44:53] Yeah, it's pretty hardcore so
[00:44:55] I mean I have flashes of the film
[00:44:57] That's why I can remember some characters' names
[00:44:59] But the meat of the film I can't remember at all
[00:45:02] Yeah
[00:45:03] I just know he goes around and kills a bunch of demons
[00:45:04] Yeah, that's pretty much it
[00:45:05] Sweet
[00:45:06] And they, oh yeah, and then the one girl
[00:45:10] She was a servant or something
[00:45:13] And then she's an assassin
[00:45:14] But she's got poisoned with insiders
[00:45:16] So when she is bit by the snake lady
[00:45:17] She doesn't get infected
[00:45:20] That's awesome
[00:45:21] And then the guy that they thought was dead comes back
[00:45:24] And then they have to like melt gold over him to
[00:45:27] Actually defeat him
[00:45:29] And there's like a pirate ship at the end or whatever
[00:45:32] Oh yeah, and he sinks to like the bottom
[00:45:34] Man this movie is coming back to me now
[00:45:36] Yeah, it's pretty awesome
[00:45:37] I should get that movie
[00:45:39] I haven't seen that in so long
[00:45:41] It's been so long since I've seen it
[00:45:42] I had it on videocassette
[00:45:44] Yeah
[00:45:45] That's how old I am
[00:45:46] The HS days, yep
[00:45:47] Yep, Adam had it too
[00:45:48] That's how I watched it
[00:45:51] Then I watched a couple of comedies again
[00:45:52] Like this is the end
[00:45:53] In both Jump Street movies
[00:45:55] Those are just funny
[00:45:57] I've been to Jones to watch the Jump Street movies too
[00:46:00] I don't know if I've seen ads for them
[00:46:02] Or maybe because Jonah Hills bit in the news
[00:46:04] Probably the whole Penguin news
[00:46:06] Yeah
[00:46:07] That didn't pan out
[00:46:08] And then I watched a new Jean-Claude Van Damme movie
[00:46:11] Called We Die Young
[00:46:14] What's funny about that?
[00:46:15] No, it's an action movie I'm assuming right?
[00:46:19] I guess
[00:46:20] He's sort of barely in it
[00:46:22] Okay, cause like the title made it sound like
[00:46:24] A drama that I'm not aware of
[00:46:26] It's a little bit of a drama
[00:46:28] Okay
[00:46:29] And he is top build
[00:46:31] But he feels like a secondary character in the movie
[00:46:34] Okay
[00:46:35] It's really about these two Hispanic kids
[00:46:38] I guess there's like an MS-13 cell in Washington DC
[00:46:42] So they recruit these two kids into the gang
[00:46:47] And they want to get out
[00:46:49] So they use Jean-Claude Van Damme to help
[00:46:53] Get them out
[00:46:54] And Jean-Claude has PTSD because he was a soldier in Afghanistan
[00:46:58] Where he accidentally killed a bunch of civilian kids
[00:47:01] So he got out and then he has this trauma
[00:47:03] And so that's why he wants to help these kids
[00:47:05] Is to feel better about himself I guess
[00:47:09] And it doesn't go according to plan
[00:47:12] And the action is really incoherent in a lot of places
[00:47:16] It just cuts to all this different stuff
[00:47:18] To make it seem more exciting
[00:47:20] But you're like, where are we now?
[00:47:22] Who's getting what?
[00:47:24] There's a shootout at this keen senior, I think
[00:47:27] It was or a wedding at the end
[00:47:30] And there's just people in the family just scurrying
[00:47:35] For like the full 30 minutes after they
[00:47:38] Like the police assault the house
[00:47:42] And it just keeps going and it's like
[00:47:45] There was only like 20 people there
[00:47:47] No me gusta
[00:47:48] No one's made it out of the backyard yet
[00:47:50] Yeah so it was okay
[00:47:54] And he's not doing any kicks or anything
[00:47:58] It's really just kind of rescuing those kids
[00:48:02] Yeah I watched The Way We Go
[00:48:05] Because the film was supposed to be in 2009
[00:48:08] I remember being a good movie
[00:48:10] But I remember just how good it was
[00:48:12] But I forgot most of the plot
[00:48:17] And it's really they go to each city
[00:48:19] Where their family is to find out
[00:48:21] Where's the best, because the parents
[00:48:25] Are moving to France I guess
[00:48:27] And they need to be near families
[00:48:30] So they can help take care of this accidental child
[00:48:32] They're having
[00:48:33] It's also partially about like
[00:48:34] They're trying to figure out how best
[00:48:36] To raise a child, that's the overarching
[00:48:39] In each part of their family they visit
[00:48:41] It's like a different aspect of how to raise a child
[00:48:44] And they just see how weird and messed up
[00:48:48] Some of their family units are
[00:48:51] So then at the end
[00:48:54] My Rudolph's character had her childhood house
[00:48:57] The whole time so they
[00:48:59] Your eyes oh
[00:49:00] We should just be our own family here
[00:49:03] Without the rest of those freaks
[00:49:05] Yeah John Krasinski is a really good actor
[00:49:07] You forget
[00:49:09] But when you
[00:49:10] I was on vacation
[00:49:13] I'm trying to get my comics back organized
[00:49:15] Because I had a really bad habit
[00:49:16] If I'd get comics and not put them where they belong
[00:49:18] And it's taken me so long
[00:49:20] So I just put the office on in the background
[00:49:22] And he's really good in moments in the office
[00:49:26] And you know when you see a way we go
[00:49:28] Or even you know a quiet place
[00:49:30] He's pretty good
[00:49:32] And it is the game they have
[00:49:34] Where his wife
[00:49:37] Or his girlfriend wants him to fight more
[00:49:39] So just out of nowhere he just calls her
[00:49:41] Like a con sucker
[00:49:43] Like really loud on the train
[00:49:45] Yeah it's pretty funny
[00:49:47] Yeah they're like having a legitimate fight
[00:49:49] And they just turns that on to like
[00:49:51] Oh yeah you fucking bitch
[00:49:56] All in good fun
[00:49:57] I need to re-watch this movie
[00:49:59] Yeah I know I've been since James brought it up too
[00:50:01] I've been really wanting to watch it
[00:50:03] I haven't seen it in a while
[00:50:04] Yeah I don't think I saw it in like ten years
[00:50:05] But I had the DVDs so
[00:50:07] I think the last time I saw it was in the theater
[00:50:10] Yeah that was a good movie
[00:50:12] And because I moved like
[00:50:14] Now all my DVDs are like in a
[00:50:16] Like a plastic shoebox under the bed
[00:50:18] So I'm going through the DVDs being like
[00:50:20] Oh man I haven't put this in in like ten years
[00:50:22] So watch this now and say there's a lot
[00:50:25] I also watched Aquatine Hunger Force the movie again finally
[00:50:28] Cause that's only on DVD
[00:50:30] That is
[00:50:31] And it's so ridiculous
[00:50:34] You know every once in a while I throw in Aquatine Hunger Force
[00:50:36] One because the episode is like eight minutes long
[00:50:38] So you can just blow through them really fast
[00:50:41] And I love that there's no continuity
[00:50:43] You know they'll all die in the episode before
[00:50:45] Then they're just back at hanging out the cool
[00:50:47] And obviously that opening number about
[00:50:49] Being quiet in the movie theater is classic
[00:50:53] But yeah the movie is just so random
[00:50:56] And watching it again now you just see it
[00:50:58] Feels like there's no second pass of the script
[00:51:01] Like it's just whatever first idea came to them
[00:51:04] Cause by the end you know
[00:51:06] Freilock and Doctor Weird
[00:51:08] You know at first you think that
[00:51:10] Doctor Weird is their creator
[00:51:12] But then they reverse it and it's Freilock
[00:51:14] Is their creator and then
[00:51:16] Suddenly they have a mom
[00:51:18] That's a nine layer burrito and then the movie just ends
[00:51:20] And that's Burrito's voice by Tina Fey
[00:51:22] Yeah
[00:51:23] Oh my favorite moment is still
[00:51:26] The opening where it's like my father built this castle
[00:51:29] He said that weirds would live here for a thousand years
[00:51:32] And now it's being turned into fucking lofts
[00:51:35] And all the like the placement cards at the bottom
[00:51:37] Are like 2000 BC yesterday
[00:51:40] New York
[00:51:42] It's like they're in space and it says New York again
[00:51:46] Oh shit Bruce Campbell is a chicken McNugget
[00:51:49] I forgot about that
[00:51:50] Chicken Biddle
[00:51:51] Yeah
[00:51:52] He dies
[00:51:53] It's exploded
[00:51:54] Yeah I miss they used as two or three years ago
[00:51:56] They used to do Carl's lock pick of the week
[00:51:59] Of the century for football
[00:52:01] That's amazing
[00:52:02] Yeah
[00:52:03] I miss Carl
[00:52:04] Yep
[00:52:05] That's all I watched
[00:52:06] Yeah that's awesome
[00:52:07] That
[00:52:09] Not a whole lot
[00:52:11] Continuing on the Hitchcock kick
[00:52:13] I re-watched
[00:52:15] Hitchcock kick
[00:52:17] That should have been the title of the podcast
[00:52:19] Cock kick
[00:52:21] I re-watched Secret Agent
[00:52:24] Which is kind of like
[00:52:27] It's an early British film by Hitchcock
[00:52:29] That's not
[00:52:31] It stands out only in certain moments
[00:52:34] But it's not like
[00:52:35] It's not among the top British classics
[00:52:38] Like a 39 Steps or a Lady Vanishes
[00:52:41] But it's based off of a play
[00:52:43] And an article
[00:52:46] And it's mainly about just trying to
[00:52:49] Foyle another spy's plans during World War I
[00:52:52] To end the war
[00:52:53] It's a movie where Peter Lorre is the hero
[00:52:55] Or one of the heroes in the movie
[00:52:57] So he's not like a bad guy
[00:52:59] He does die at the end though
[00:53:00] Because he was kind of
[00:53:02] Oh it
[00:53:03] The movie's like 84 years old
[00:53:04] I know
[00:53:06] Were you guys really surprised that Peter Lorre
[00:53:08] Died in a movie though?
[00:53:09] I mean, I don't think you know who he is
[00:53:11] But you
[00:53:13] But it's just interesting
[00:53:14] Because he normally plays a person who
[00:53:18] There's a few movies where he gets to play
[00:53:20] Somebody of noble merit
[00:53:21] Whether it's this or Pash's to Marseille
[00:53:23] But
[00:53:24] I just liked watching him in the movie
[00:53:26] He's actually responsible for one of the scenes
[00:53:29] In the movie that actually kind of
[00:53:32] Predicks what Rear Window is going to do
[00:53:34] For an entire movie in terms of the POV
[00:53:37] Like really focusing on perception
[00:53:40] From a certain point in the distance
[00:53:44] And what you can do within that
[00:53:46] The big problem of the entire film
[00:53:49] Is that John Gilgud is in the movie
[00:53:51] And if you've never heard of John Gilgud
[00:53:53] You would remember him from Arthur
[00:53:55] As his butler
[00:53:57] And he was a partthrought back in the day
[00:53:59] And he could have given two shits about the script
[00:54:01] So he plays the movie super flat
[00:54:04] And everybody else around him
[00:54:06] Is doing a wonderful job
[00:54:08] So it sucks when your lead hero
[00:54:10] Is bland AF
[00:54:13] But it's Hitchcock
[00:54:14] It's still a great movie
[00:54:16] It's one that
[00:54:18] I
[00:54:19] If they did a criterion
[00:54:21] Or like a restoration of it
[00:54:22] I think you'd have to do it from anybody
[00:54:25] Other than criterion
[00:54:26] Or
[00:54:27] Criterion may have an angle on it
[00:54:29] In discussing John Gilgud's
[00:54:31] Indifference in the movie
[00:54:33] But yeah, I'll be probably chatting more
[00:54:35] About the espionage films and the war films
[00:54:38] At a certain point with this guy here
[00:54:41] Cool
[00:54:42] Because I think I chatted with you
[00:54:43] About it not too long ago
[00:54:45] But if not I'll do it again after this show
[00:54:47] Sweet
[00:54:48] But
[00:54:49] I got into a Marvel
[00:54:51] Fit
[00:54:52] This week
[00:54:53] And yesterday I watched
[00:54:56] Five Marvel movies
[00:54:59] Mainly because I had some time at work
[00:55:01] If I didn't have a wife or a kid
[00:55:02] That's probably what I'd be doing
[00:55:03] Trust me, my loneliness is my consequence
[00:55:07] Sometimes it's the greatest thing
[00:55:09] Yesterday I had to go to a birthday party
[00:55:11] For one of Kellen's classmates
[00:55:14] My wife thinks I'm antisocial
[00:55:16] It's not that I'm antisocial
[00:55:18] It's just I don't
[00:55:20] Doesn't give a fuck about these people
[00:55:21] Yeah
[00:55:22] I mean
[00:55:23] And here's the thing
[00:55:25] Because of my job
[00:55:26] When I go to places
[00:55:27] People always will tell me stories
[00:55:29] About the time they were
[00:55:31] Contacted by police
[00:55:32] I don't fucking care
[00:55:35] Did you speed?
[00:55:36] Well then you get a ticket
[00:55:37] I don't know what you want to say
[00:55:38] Yeah
[00:55:39] Cool story bro
[00:55:40] People are speeding on my street
[00:55:42] All the time
[00:55:43] I haven't seen you guys out there
[00:55:46] Cool
[00:55:47] Yeah
[00:55:48] By the way Ryan did I tell you my police story?
[00:55:53] So I was doing this podcast with this guy
[00:55:55] And he got fired from
[00:55:57] To Doba and then he became a police officer
[00:55:59] True story bro
[00:56:02] But yeah
[00:56:05] I love having wife
[00:56:06] I love having my kid
[00:56:07] But I realize that my favorite thing to do
[00:56:09] Is to be left alone
[00:56:13] Oh my god
[00:56:14] I know you don't like this movie
[00:56:15] But it's like Daniel
[00:56:16] They listen to people on the streets
[00:56:17] It's like I just want to get enough money
[00:56:18] To get out of here
[00:56:19] To go alone
[00:56:20] So I got
[00:56:21] Legend of Zelda linked to the past
[00:56:23] Trying to play it
[00:56:24] And I'm like
[00:56:25] I keep on getting
[00:56:26] Fucking
[00:56:27] I can't focus on it
[00:56:28] The same thing happened when I had Breath of Wild
[00:56:30] It's not like Mario
[00:56:31] I mean Mario 3D world is amazing
[00:56:34] But I could pick that up
[00:56:35] And go grab like a
[00:56:36] A sun
[00:56:37] Or whatever
[00:56:38] A star piece
[00:56:39] And then I could turn it off
[00:56:40] It wouldn't matter
[00:56:41] Now it's you know
[00:56:42] Zelda's you gotta sit there
[00:56:43] And solve puzzles
[00:56:45] I can't do it when I'm married
[00:56:47] Yeah
[00:56:48] I love my wife
[00:56:49] She's a wonderful lady
[00:56:52] If it's any consolation
[00:56:53] Like
[00:56:54] I go to bed crying at night
[00:56:55] But anyway
[00:56:56] I had a tomb
[00:56:57] My wife yells at me all the time
[00:56:58] Oh so it's just for different reasons
[00:57:00] Yeah exactly
[00:57:01] But the Marvel movies I watched though
[00:57:03] I rewatched Thor Ragnarok
[00:57:05] Which I would think it was the first time
[00:57:06] I'd seen it in a couple years
[00:57:08] But
[00:57:10] Like not a couple years
[00:57:11] Like it's been a while
[00:57:13] But that movie's still fucking rocks
[00:57:16] I like how it's basically
[00:57:18] The beginning of Thor's arc
[00:57:20] And Hulk's arc for that matter
[00:57:22] For Ragnarok
[00:57:23] Infinity War and Endgame
[00:57:25] And kinda exploring
[00:57:27] How much he's
[00:57:28] It's a turning point for the characters
[00:57:29] Yeah
[00:57:30] And how much he's been through
[00:57:31] And what are the emotional consequences
[00:57:33] Of his actions up to that point
[00:57:37] And then
[00:57:38] I rewatched Ant-Man on the Wasp
[00:57:39] And that movie worked way better
[00:57:42] For me the second time around
[00:57:44] It's such a fun movie
[00:57:45] Randall Park
[00:57:47] Is funny as fuck in that movie
[00:57:48] As the FBI agent
[00:57:50] Cause I just
[00:57:51] I like how he's trying to learn
[00:57:53] The online magic
[00:57:55] And he's like
[00:57:56] It's at his desk
[00:57:57] And he's trying to learn it
[00:57:58] As they're like
[00:57:59] We gotta lead
[00:58:00] These are good
[00:58:02] And
[00:58:04] One of my favorite lines
[00:58:05] In that film from Michael
[00:58:07] From Michael Douglas
[00:58:08] Is when
[00:58:09] When Ant-Man has to shrink down
[00:58:11] And they put a little hoodie on him
[00:58:12] So that he can run around the school
[00:58:14] Comes back and they're like
[00:58:15] Hey champ, how's school today?
[00:58:17] Do you want a string cheese
[00:58:18] And some juice box?
[00:58:20] Wait, you have that?
[00:58:22] That's a good snack
[00:58:23] But yeah
[00:58:24] Ant-Man on the Wasp
[00:58:25] Still fucking awesome
[00:58:26] And then
[00:58:27] Black Panther
[00:58:29] Still one of the
[00:58:30] Best Marvel movies I've ever seen
[00:58:31] Hands down
[00:58:33] Actually was listening to the score a lot
[00:58:35] This time around
[00:58:36] And that score is just fucking
[00:58:38] I mean like
[00:58:39] Out of the few good decisions
[00:58:41] That the Academy Awards made this year
[00:58:43] For rewarding movies from 2018
[00:58:45] Giving the Oscar to that score
[00:58:47] Was one of the best choices they made
[00:58:48] The picture they have
[00:58:49] For the title page on Netflix
[00:58:52] Is where Black Panther is in the tree
[00:58:54] And there's gun flash
[00:58:55] So it's really bright
[00:58:57] And it looks really bad
[00:58:59] Looks like he's on a sound stage
[00:59:01] Which I'm sure he was
[00:59:02] And you know what
[00:59:03] I'm fairly sure that Netflix
[00:59:04] Is having trouble playing it
[00:59:05] Because it took me forever to start that fucking thing
[00:59:08] That's why I have Ultra HD
[00:59:09] And I don't fucking care about it
[00:59:10] Well, that was the only way
[00:59:11] I could watch the movie
[00:59:12] At work
[00:59:14] But yeah
[00:59:15] That movie is still fucking rocks
[00:59:16] I like re-watching that movie
[00:59:18] And just getting into the world
[00:59:20] I really
[00:59:21] I cannot wait for a fucking sequel
[00:59:23] And then I got home
[00:59:25] Put on my 4K discs
[00:59:26] Of Infinity War and Endgame
[00:59:28] And did a double feature of that
[00:59:30] And
[00:59:32] I
[00:59:33] I haven't watched Infinity War
[00:59:35] Since I watched Endgame
[00:59:37] So
[00:59:39] I like Infinity War a lot
[00:59:40] And I think it's a lot better
[00:59:42] In my head than
[00:59:44] It was when I saw it last year
[00:59:46] But
[00:59:49] I kind of found myself eagerly
[00:59:51] Waiting for Endgame
[00:59:52] As the whole movie was going on
[00:59:54] But Josh Brolin's performance
[00:59:56] In the film still keeps me going
[00:59:59] And then re-watched Endgame
[01:00:01] That thing's
[01:00:02] Every time I keep re-watching it
[01:00:06] It goes higher and higher on my list
[01:00:08] It's fucking incredible
[01:00:09] That final shot with
[01:00:11] Peggy in Cap still makes me cry
[01:00:14] And I was mainly watching
[01:00:16] Through all of these to be like
[01:00:17] Well, are these cinema?
[01:00:19] And my answer is yes they fucking are
[01:00:21] You know how I know
[01:00:22] Because they use camera angles
[01:00:23] They have stories
[01:00:24] They have thematic elements
[01:00:26] That are true to both real life
[01:00:28] And also within the fictional world
[01:00:30] And they have characters you can relate to
[01:00:32] Yes, it's cinema
[01:00:34] So that ends the debate guys
[01:00:35] Nobody has to
[01:00:36] Nobody can say anything else
[01:00:37] I understand what your
[01:00:38] Intrigate points are
[01:00:39] My point is that
[01:00:41] It played in a movie theater
[01:00:42] It's cinema
[01:00:43] One thing I hate about that
[01:00:44] Scorsese stuff
[01:00:45] It's the Netflix thing
[01:00:46] Is
[01:00:47] Every, well that
[01:00:48] But everyone says he's not wrong
[01:00:49] No, he's wrong
[01:00:51] You can say he's wrong
[01:00:52] No, it's
[01:00:53] I think he's wrong
[01:00:54] I understand what he's saying
[01:00:55] But he's wrong
[01:00:56] No, I don't understand what he's saying at all
[01:00:57] He's so full of shit
[01:00:58] My whole argument is
[01:00:59] He's saying that they're invading cinemas
[01:01:02] It might happen
[01:01:03] Dude, you literally have a movie
[01:01:04] That you're putting on Netflix
[01:01:07] And you're putting it in cinemas
[01:01:08] On purpose so you can get awards for it
[01:01:10] My
[01:01:11] That's you literally invading
[01:01:12] The cinemas
[01:01:13] I understand that
[01:01:14] No, he's
[01:01:15] He's frustrated that he had to go to this option
[01:01:19] And that's the point
[01:01:20] Well make better movies
[01:01:21] He does make good movies
[01:01:22] He makes fun movies
[01:01:23] What's his last great movie
[01:01:24] I think Silence is a pretty good movie
[01:01:26] And one of our co-
[01:01:27] You just said pretty good
[01:01:28] What's his last great movie
[01:01:30] Last great movie
[01:01:34] You have to make movies like
[01:01:35] Well Wall Street is pretty awesome
[01:01:37] It is
[01:01:38] I think Hugo's a masterpiece
[01:01:41] Actually it is
[01:01:42] It's pretty wonderful
[01:01:43] Okay
[01:01:44] You have to get movies that
[01:01:45] It's actually a great 3D movie
[01:01:46] Because it uses that technology properly
[01:01:49] As did Avatar
[01:01:50] But
[01:01:51] Anyways, Brad you were saying
[01:01:53] Like you have to make movies that get people up off their ass
[01:01:56] At home
[01:01:57] And go to the theater
[01:01:58] And his frustration is that his movies
[01:02:00] Don't attract audiences anymore
[01:02:01] Yeah, because they're dense and they don't
[01:02:04] They're not
[01:02:05] They're not get outside
[01:02:06] To the movies on Saturday night
[01:02:08] Which again
[01:02:09] That's the only part
[01:02:10] It's his fault though
[01:02:11] And that's because those are the stories
[01:02:12] He chooses to tell
[01:02:13] And that's his thing
[01:02:14] Marvel's doing a good job at making their thing
[01:02:16] So why
[01:02:17] You know
[01:02:18] Get angry with them
[01:02:19] At the end of the day guess what
[01:02:20] This art form progressively
[01:02:22] Changes every decade
[01:02:24] Like even
[01:02:25] Not even every decade
[01:02:26] Like every two years it changes
[01:02:27] It's just something
[01:02:28] I would also argue that
[01:02:29] Endgame has more emotional beats
[01:02:31] In any Scorsese film I've ever seen
[01:02:33] That's pretty fair
[01:02:35] Because like
[01:02:36] I mean
[01:02:37] And I know that a lot of that is pay off
[01:02:38] From a long series of films
[01:02:39] But that doesn't mean they're still not effective
[01:02:41] No
[01:02:42] And I was sending you messages today
[01:02:44] Or it was yesterday, right?
[01:02:46] Someday
[01:02:47] I sent you text messages at some point
[01:02:49] Going like if Scorsese is going to
[01:02:51] Make that argument
[01:02:52] Then he has to discount a lot of films
[01:02:54] That he's talked about in the past
[01:02:56] As being inspirations for his
[01:02:58] Own over of work
[01:03:00] Like I use the example of Busby Berke
[01:03:02] I love Busby Berkely musicals
[01:03:05] I think they're fun
[01:03:06] I think they're inventive
[01:03:07] I think they're unique
[01:03:08] They are not dense thematically
[01:03:11] But they have a place in cinema
[01:03:13] In terms of our history, right?
[01:03:14] The point is that
[01:03:16] Superhero genre is another genre
[01:03:18] That in 50 years is going to be upheld
[01:03:20] As a genre that has meaning and depth
[01:03:23] And definition
[01:03:24] The reason nobody's saying that now
[01:03:26] Is because everybody's afraid
[01:03:28] It's reactionary
[01:03:29] You know what I'm saying?
[01:03:30] Like everything that changes the industry
[01:03:32] Has backlash
[01:03:34] But this is
[01:03:36] Time is a flat circle
[01:03:37] Everything happens at once
[01:03:38] And it all keeps going
[01:03:39] I mean in the 70s
[01:03:40] I'm sure the studios were like
[01:03:42] All these indie filmmakers
[01:03:43] Coming around like
[01:03:44] Defying the system
[01:03:45] Exactly
[01:03:46] You know he was
[01:03:48] The people he's ragging on now
[01:03:50] Yeah you
[01:03:51] If you follow Hollywood
[01:03:53] There's always
[01:03:54] Wood
[01:03:55] There's always rebels
[01:03:57] You know if you go
[01:03:59] You know Kerry Grant kicking the studio system
[01:04:01] And there's always these factions
[01:04:03] In Hollywood where they're against
[01:04:05] Change
[01:04:07] And
[01:04:11] Is Endgame the best movie of the year?
[01:04:13] Yeah it has to be
[01:04:14] It's a culmination of 22 films
[01:04:16] Telling a cohesive story
[01:04:18] And it's three hours long
[01:04:19] And it feels like it's an hour and twenty minutes long
[01:04:22] How many other movies
[01:04:24] Like the franchise falls apart
[01:04:25] At the first sequel?
[01:04:26] Yeah there's 22 of them
[01:04:28] 23 I'm sorry Spider-Man
[01:04:30] But it's
[01:04:32] It's asinine
[01:04:33] It's an accomplishment
[01:04:35] Is it my number one movie of the year?
[01:04:37] As of now not yet
[01:04:38] But it's still on my list
[01:04:39] It's on my list
[01:04:40] I understand that
[01:04:41] But
[01:04:42] My point is that
[01:04:44] You know I like Scorsese
[01:04:45] I like his films
[01:04:46] I like the things he discusses in his films
[01:04:48] I mean
[01:04:50] I love the opinion that his uvra
[01:04:52] It doesn't matter if the film's bad or not
[01:04:54] It has something to talk about
[01:04:56] But
[01:04:57] That doesn't
[01:04:58] Like I don't
[01:04:59] I think he's just being a whiny old man
[01:05:01] And I honestly think
[01:05:03] Freakin
[01:05:06] What's his fucking Jesus movie name?
[01:05:08] Oh Last temptation to Christ
[01:05:09] It's a shitty movie
[01:05:11] And everyone thinks it's so great
[01:05:12] Oh I like that movie
[01:05:14] Yeah it's shitty
[01:05:15] But it's just awesome
[01:05:17] It's just awesome
[01:05:18] But it was hard to watch
[01:05:20] Yeah
[01:05:21] I like that movie
[01:05:23] I understand that not everybody likes it
[01:05:25] It's not for everybody
[01:05:27] But
[01:05:28] Point being like
[01:05:29] And I'm not even trying to shit on Scorsese
[01:05:30] I'm just also
[01:05:31] I'm also
[01:05:32] I'm just trying to say
[01:05:34] At the end of the day
[01:05:35] Like look
[01:05:36] If you're gonna say that
[01:05:37] Then how many other times have
[01:05:39] Like within the past 50 years
[01:05:41] Of Hollywood's history
[01:05:42] Has stuff like this come up
[01:05:44] And then it becomes a non-issue
[01:05:45] 20 years down the line
[01:05:46] It should be an issue anyways
[01:05:48] Yeah I know
[01:05:49] I agree
[01:05:50] No I know
[01:05:51] It's difficult because it's just like
[01:05:52] That's Scorsese is one of my heroes
[01:05:54] But he's
[01:05:55] He's saying the wrong thing right now
[01:05:57] Are we still on here?
[01:05:58] What you been watching?
[01:05:59] Yeah no that's all I watched this week
[01:06:00] No I was
[01:06:01] It was just frustrating me since last week
[01:06:03] Because I was just like
[01:06:04] I don't know
[01:06:05] Like it just
[01:06:06] It had a bug on my ass
[01:06:07] Because I'm just like
[01:06:08] Can't cinema just be
[01:06:09] All the things?
[01:06:10] Because that's pretty much what it is
[01:06:11] Like
[01:06:12] At this point
[01:06:13] If it's showing in a movie theater
[01:06:14] To me it's cinema
[01:06:15] Because
[01:06:16] There are many films that are not showing
[01:06:18] Just as what Robert Daniels Jr. says about it
[01:06:20] He basically calls them an idiot
[01:06:21] Not calling them an idiot
[01:06:22] See yeah
[01:06:23] That's the best response to it
[01:06:25] That doesn't insult the legacy of a
[01:06:27] Long time award winning filmmaker
[01:06:29] And doesn't dispel a franchise
[01:06:31] That has given us emotional
[01:06:32] And
[01:06:33] Financial satisfaction
[01:06:34] You know what I'm saying?
[01:06:35] Like
[01:06:36] Anyway that's all I watched this week
[01:06:38] End rant
[01:06:39] I
[01:06:40] Go back a little bit
[01:06:41] I watched a few Cary Grant films
[01:06:43] I watched Centers in the Sun
[01:06:44] Which is with Carol Lombard
[01:06:46] Carol Lombard is the star of it
[01:06:47] She is a Jezebel guys
[01:06:49] She's a model
[01:06:50] Who stays out late at night
[01:06:51] Drinking
[01:06:52] Smoking
[01:06:53] A harlot
[01:06:54] Yes
[01:06:55] And her dad doesn't approve of it
[01:06:57] This garage mechanic named Jimmy
[01:06:59] Wants to marry her
[01:07:00] But she says
[01:07:01] You don't have enough money
[01:07:02] Go with pound sand
[01:07:03] But then
[01:07:04] She
[01:07:05] Gets engaged to a rich
[01:07:06] Philanthropist
[01:07:07] And
[01:07:08] She realizes that
[01:07:10] Maybe money isn't everything
[01:07:11] And maybe Jimmy is a good guy
[01:07:12] But this is only after her dad
[01:07:14] Kicks her out of the house
[01:07:15] He says
[01:07:16] I'm tired of you coming home at
[01:07:17] Two in the morning smelling like
[01:07:18] Booze and
[01:07:19] Cigarettes
[01:07:20] Get out
[01:07:21] Oh if you're wondering Cary
[01:07:22] Grant's movie he is
[01:07:23] He's in it for like five minutes
[01:07:24] And he's some dude at a
[01:07:26] Restaurant who asks around
[01:07:27] She says no and then he leaves
[01:07:29] Never comes back
[01:07:31] That's alright
[01:07:32] She said no to Cary Grant
[01:07:33] I know can you believe it
[01:07:34] I think it's a second or third film
[01:07:37] He's still kind of
[01:07:39] Hey he's there
[01:07:41] Because he's good looking
[01:07:42] I want to make a Cary Grant movie
[01:07:44] Now called Hey He's There
[01:07:45] Yeah you know in the 30s
[01:07:47] The credits you know there's only
[01:07:49] Like five or six actors that are
[01:07:51] Oh even credited
[01:07:53] Yeah
[01:07:54] And if you're number five
[01:07:56] You're probably not in the film that much
[01:07:58] Just like Mary Lee we go to hell
[01:07:59] He's not in it too often
[01:08:01] And Mary Lee goes to hell is
[01:08:03] This dude is an alcoholic
[01:08:06] And a writer
[01:08:07] And he also is an adulter
[01:08:09] And his wife is like
[01:08:11] Fuck you get out of my house
[01:08:13] And
[01:08:14] We have a word for that back in the 40s
[01:08:15] It's called a bum
[01:08:16] Yeah
[01:08:17] A bum you're just a bum
[01:08:18] Yeah so
[01:08:20] So he leaves and she decides
[01:08:21] She's gonna have an affair too
[01:08:22] And her affair she has
[01:08:24] Is with Cary Grant
[01:08:25] And he's in it about five minutes again
[01:08:28] Can't go wrong there
[01:08:29] And then at the end
[01:08:30] You know what
[01:08:31] He learns the heirs of his ways guys
[01:08:33] He stops drinking
[01:08:34] He writes a successful play
[01:08:36] This is
[01:08:37] What I love about 1930s movies
[01:08:39] Is it's about an hour and twenty minutes of
[01:08:41] Conflict
[01:08:42] And then in like a minute they go
[01:08:43] Okay well I learned my lesson
[01:08:45] And it's
[01:08:46] Do-B-E-N-D
[01:08:50] I watched Toast of New York
[01:08:51] Which is actually a really great movie
[01:08:53] Cary Granson and a little more
[01:08:54] He's not the main character
[01:08:56] I can't believe I can't remember
[01:08:57] The main character guy right now
[01:08:58] But anyways
[01:08:59] Cary Grant and these two other dudes
[01:09:00] Are basically thieves
[01:09:02] And they're
[01:09:03] They just swindle people out of money
[01:09:06] And the main character
[01:09:08] I can't believe I can't remember his name
[01:09:10] But anyways
[01:09:11] He develops a scheme where he's gonna buy
[01:09:14] All the gold in the United States
[01:09:16] And create a stock market crash
[01:09:18] And so he basically becomes
[01:09:21] Drunk with power
[01:09:23] And he
[01:09:24] So he wants everything
[01:09:26] So he's gonna
[01:09:27] He tries to buy this actress
[01:09:28] But the actress starts falling in love
[01:09:29] With Cary Grant
[01:09:30] Edward Arnold
[01:09:31] Thank you
[01:09:32] He's a great actor
[01:09:33] And
[01:09:35] So when he causes the
[01:09:37] So it's
[01:09:39] This is 86 years old guys
[01:09:40] I'm gonna spoil the ending
[01:09:42] So when he
[01:09:44] The dude buys all the thing
[01:09:45] And Cary Grant's telling him
[01:09:46] No, you can't do this
[01:09:47] It's like a depression era film
[01:09:48] Where the rich people are the bad guys
[01:09:50] And so it's basically
[01:09:52] Rehashing the stock market crash
[01:09:54] But in a different way
[01:09:56] Excuse me
[01:09:57] Rich people are always the bad guys
[01:09:58] No matter what
[01:09:59] Doesn't matter
[01:10:00] But the movie's actually really
[01:10:01] That's actually a surprise
[01:10:02] How good the movie was
[01:10:04] So yeah, it's one of the hidden gems
[01:10:06] In the Cary Grant things I've been watching
[01:10:08] And Cary Grant's really great in it
[01:10:10] You know, around this time
[01:10:12] 33 to 37
[01:10:14] He really starts turning a corner
[01:10:16] Into being a leading man
[01:10:18] Well that's when he starts getting
[01:10:19] A lot more known as
[01:10:20] I wanna see this movie
[01:10:21] Edward Arnold
[01:10:22] Francis Farmer
[01:10:23] Yeah, she's great in it
[01:10:24] Jack O'Kee
[01:10:25] Man
[01:10:26] I'll let you borrow it
[01:10:28] And the last Cary Grant film I watched
[01:10:30] Was the Passion in the
[01:10:31] Oh no, two more, sorry
[01:10:32] One was the Passion in the Pride
[01:10:34] Frank Sinatra's the Passion in that one
[01:10:36] Sorry, this is actually two weeks
[01:10:37] Worth of Movies
[01:10:38] That's all good
[01:10:39] And it's really well made
[01:10:41] Is Stanley Kramer
[01:10:43] Yeah, he's a great director
[01:10:44] Hell yeah it is
[01:10:45] It's almost as if though
[01:10:46] He's made the best comedy of all time
[01:10:47] Yeah, maybe
[01:10:50] In it, Cary Grant plays
[01:10:52] English Colonel
[01:10:55] And he has to get this
[01:10:57] Giant cannon across Spain
[01:10:59] It's during the Napoleonic Wars
[01:11:01] Frank Sinatra plays a Spanish general
[01:11:05] And Sofia Lorenz in it
[01:11:07] Cause she's attractive
[01:11:09] Of course she falls in love with Cary Grant
[01:11:11] Creates friction between the two
[01:11:13] It's really well shot
[01:11:14] It's kind of boring
[01:11:15] It's almost two and a half hours long
[01:11:17] And I mean it looks great
[01:11:18] It's a Stanley Kramer movie alright
[01:11:20] But you think it
[01:11:21] Because it's a war film
[01:11:22] You'd be like
[01:11:23] Oh, cool
[01:11:24] But it takes a little bit to get going
[01:11:26] It's shot really well
[01:11:28] I think it's a situation
[01:11:31] Especially with Kramer films
[01:11:32] Around that era where
[01:11:34] I find the plots interesting
[01:11:36] But I think that the pacing
[01:11:39] Prior to the 60s
[01:11:42] Is a little still
[01:11:44] It's a little labored
[01:11:46] It's because they're trying
[01:11:47] The film is trying to create an epic
[01:11:49] And around there
[01:11:50] You know you got films like Ben Hur
[01:11:52] Where it's really cool
[01:11:53] To make really long movies
[01:11:55] With like epic
[01:11:56] Where you have an intermission
[01:11:57] It's a night at the theater
[01:11:59] And it's a lot of it has to do
[01:12:00] With the emergence of television
[01:12:02] Yeah I mean Grant and Sonatra
[01:12:04] Okay in it
[01:12:05] You can kind of tell
[01:12:07] Grant's not 100% in it
[01:12:09] I mean it's 57
[01:12:10] So he's almost on his way out
[01:12:11] I think he only makes
[01:12:12] I think seven more movies after this
[01:12:14] Right
[01:12:15] I don't know
[01:12:16] Like he's good in it
[01:12:17] But he's not Cary Grant good
[01:12:19] I don't know if that makes any sense
[01:12:20] It's not a Kramer movie
[01:12:21] I revisit a bunch
[01:12:22] I'll rewatch Judgement
[01:12:24] at Nuremberg
[01:12:25] Which is longer
[01:12:26] And more depressing
[01:12:27] Before I rewatch this one
[01:12:28] That one's really good
[01:12:29] It is a great movie
[01:12:31] And Keenal over just put it on
[01:12:32] To the really great
[01:12:33] Yeah
[01:12:34] So yeah it's me and it's alright
[01:12:36] And then the last Cary Grant film
[01:12:37] I watched was Alice in Wonderland
[01:12:39] Which was awful
[01:12:40] You texted me about this
[01:12:43] So Cary Grant is the mock turtle
[01:12:45] And they literally cover his whole face up
[01:12:48] Except there's these really creepy times
[01:12:49] Where he can see his whole head inside
[01:12:51] The mock turtles costume
[01:12:52] So he's completely covered
[01:12:53] Gary Cooper is in it
[01:12:54] As a white knight
[01:12:55] He's completely covered too
[01:12:56] The film is shot really weird
[01:12:58] I think they're trying to make it
[01:13:00] Like a lavish production
[01:13:01] But it just falls flat to me
[01:13:03] If you look back
[01:13:05] Because what year was it?
[01:13:06] It's 33
[01:13:07] Okay so this is right in line with this
[01:13:09] There are fantasy films that try to get made
[01:13:11] Between like 1919 and this
[01:13:14] And like before Wizard of Oz
[01:13:16] Essentially where fantasy films
[01:13:18] Look like they came straight
[01:13:21] Out of hell because of the way the costumes look
[01:13:24] And just the set design and what not
[01:13:26] Oddly enough the only one who kind of breaks that tradition
[01:13:29] Is somebody like Walt Disney
[01:13:31] Who does the Alice shorts
[01:13:34] Where he makes this in the animation
[01:13:36] And so the separation is different
[01:13:38] But if you look back
[01:13:41] I think it's prior to Wizard of Oz
[01:13:44] There's a version of a mid-summer night's dream
[01:13:47] Where Jimmy Cagney
[01:13:50] Is in the movie and then he plays the donkey
[01:13:53] In that and they just put a big old donkey head on him
[01:13:57] It's weird
[01:13:58] It's straight
[01:13:59] So if you want nightmares
[01:14:01] Because it's staged really weird
[01:14:03] It's all on sound stages
[01:14:05] I mean it might be the most faithful adaptation of the book
[01:14:08] Because the book is garbage too
[01:14:10] Sorry people that like that story
[01:14:12] Oh Lewis Carroll's crying
[01:14:14] I don't care
[01:14:15] If you want to see Alice in Wonderland
[01:14:17] Watch the Disney version because it's at least
[01:14:19] Enjoyable
[01:14:20] Oh yes with Johnny Depp
[01:14:21] Oh yes everybody should watch that
[01:14:23] Yeah the Johnny Depp version
[01:14:25] So yeah so that's what I watched
[01:14:27] I only have one film left
[01:14:29] Not Susie because I'm not going to spend $50 on a Gene Harlow movie
[01:14:33] So that's just going to be the forever lost one
[01:14:35] But technically you didn't do every Robert Downey Jr. movie ever
[01:14:38] Until recently
[01:14:39] No I'm still missing some because some you can't get
[01:14:42] It's really weird
[01:14:43] He has some weird films
[01:14:46] But anyway Susie will never see
[01:14:49] So the last one and I'm going to edit poetically
[01:14:51] Is I'm going to watch Walk Don't Run
[01:14:53] Which was Kerry Grant's last film
[01:14:55] Good way to stop
[01:14:56] So I already started working on the article
[01:14:58] Thanks Brad
[01:15:01] So hopefully that'll be up sometime this week
[01:15:03] It's taking me a lot longer to write it
[01:15:05] Than I thought it was going to
[01:15:06] Now what would you like to do next?
[01:15:09] It'll be Kate Blanchett
[01:15:11] I've already started getting the movies of hers
[01:15:13] I didn't have actually have a lot of her movies
[01:15:15] I mean I have Lord of the Rings in The Hobbit
[01:15:17] And things like that
[01:15:19] She has a really diverse filmography
[01:15:22] So I'm kind of excited
[01:15:24] It'll be fun
[01:15:25] It makes me want to really watch the Where'd You Go Burn Your Dead movie
[01:15:28] Which came and went really quickly
[01:15:30] I kept on trying to see it at the Alamos
[01:15:31] I wouldn't really have to pay for it
[01:15:32] But I can never
[01:15:33] Because it's only good for like three weeks
[01:15:36] And then after the first week when it didn't do well
[01:15:38] It went down to two showings a day
[01:15:40] Yeah
[01:15:41] Whatever
[01:15:42] I recommend after Blanchett
[01:15:44] In five years
[01:15:46] You do Carol Lombard
[01:15:48] Because I think you'll have fun with that
[01:15:50] I might
[01:15:51] And you know what kind of movie you'll have to watch
[01:15:53] For that very sorry
[01:15:55] So happy
[01:15:56] Maybe that's why I won't do it
[01:15:59] Also this last week
[01:16:06] Holy fear of pizzas
[01:16:09] So this last week my wife and I went back
[01:16:11] To tell you about the horror show
[01:16:13] Which the real nerds invaded for two years
[01:16:15] For their third and fourth
[01:16:17] Or second and third
[01:16:19] Iteria iterations
[01:16:21] I don't remember
[01:16:22] But it's way bigger now
[01:16:24] They actually have a third venue
[01:16:26] And that venue seats 460 people
[01:16:29] Dang
[01:16:30] And
[01:16:31] When I went there
[01:16:33] I actually was going to see one more movie
[01:16:34] But it was sold out
[01:16:36] Which never happened before as well
[01:16:39] All the restaurants were open
[01:16:41] Late?
[01:16:42] Yeah
[01:16:43] I
[01:16:44] How late?
[01:16:45] To like 11
[01:16:47] There was no point
[01:16:49] Where there wasn't a restaurant open
[01:16:51] And it was bizarre because we were there
[01:16:53] Remember it used to be a ghost town
[01:16:55] Yeah
[01:16:56] And we had to eat protein bars
[01:16:58] In our hotel room
[01:17:00] After nine
[01:17:01] Right
[01:17:02] So I didn't know what to expect
[01:17:04] My wife and I got a hotel at the end of town
[01:17:06] It's called the Hotel Tell You Right
[01:17:08] It was really nice
[01:17:09] But the Palm Theater is
[01:17:11] Their high school auditorium
[01:17:13] And that's probably where they show
[01:17:14] The Tell You Right film festival films
[01:17:16] Because the screen was really nice
[01:17:17] The sound system was amazing
[01:17:19] But yeah
[01:17:20] It was tripping me out
[01:17:21] Because I took for granted
[01:17:23] Being able to get into movies
[01:17:25] Because every time we were there
[01:17:26] There's 50, 60 people in the theater
[01:17:29] I'm sorry buddy
[01:17:31] And when we were
[01:17:35] We got a ride from
[01:17:37] The show for one time
[01:17:38] To go see this movie called Porno
[01:17:40] And while we were going there
[01:17:41] He said that it's a couple thousand people
[01:17:43] Now go there for that festival
[01:17:45] Yeah it was
[01:17:47] It was kind of a trip
[01:17:48] But really in a really cool way
[01:17:50] I saw a lot of the people we saw there before
[01:17:52] Like Ted who runs it
[01:17:53] And a lot of people from behind the scenes
[01:17:56] And they were all really nice again
[01:17:58] Yeah it was crazy
[01:18:00] So I saw four movies there
[01:18:03] The first one I saw was Wounds
[01:18:04] Which is coming out on Hulu pretty soon
[01:18:06] It has Dakota Johnson and Armie Hammer
[01:18:08] Is this the movie where to promote it
[01:18:11] He like put a bunch of fake bugs on the ground
[01:18:13] Or something like that
[01:18:14] Probably because there's lots of bugs in the movie
[01:18:15] I don't know
[01:18:16] Anyways he plays a Spartan during New Orleans
[01:18:18] And these kids leave behind a cell phone
[01:18:21] And the cell phone is like evil
[01:18:23] Or something
[01:18:24] I don't know
[01:18:25] So it's like Stephen King's Cell
[01:18:27] No it's Cell
[01:18:28] There's a cell signal and they turn into zombies
[01:18:30] This they
[01:18:32] Some say, I don't even know
[01:18:34] This movie was stupid
[01:18:35] It sounds like 47 hours
[01:18:36] Yes it might be
[01:18:38] So
[01:18:40] He finds this phone
[01:18:42] And he takes it home
[01:18:43] And he texts the guy
[01:18:44] He's like, hey you forgot this phone
[01:18:45] And one of the guys texts back
[01:18:47] Help me
[01:18:48] And then he gets texts back
[01:18:49] This dude's dead body
[01:18:51] And then Dakota Johnson hates him for some reason
[01:18:54] And he's an asshole
[01:18:56] And he's drunk all the time
[01:18:57] So at the beginning
[01:18:58] I was just like
[01:19:01] Saying something on alcoholism
[01:19:03] Because he's always drinking in it
[01:19:05] And you know
[01:19:06] Just there's bugs in it
[01:19:08] And
[01:19:10] Yep
[01:19:11] I don't really know what happened
[01:19:12] And there's lots of bad acting
[01:19:13] The bugs represent shots of whiskey
[01:19:16] And they go into a mess
[01:19:17] And it's called wounds
[01:19:18] There must be some
[01:19:19] Yeah so
[01:19:20] There's a wound on this one dude
[01:19:21] And they
[01:19:22] They find this book
[01:19:23] Called the Book of Wounds
[01:19:24] But they never really explain what it is
[01:19:25] It's something to do with
[01:19:27] I don't know
[01:19:28] And then Dakota Johnson at one point
[01:19:29] Is staring at a screen
[01:19:30] That's this black hole
[01:19:31] Or tunnel that keeps on going through
[01:19:33] And
[01:19:34] But it's shocking
[01:19:35] She sat there so long
[01:19:36] She peed
[01:19:38] It seems like it was made
[01:19:40] And written by a dude
[01:19:41] Who thinks he knows what's scary
[01:19:43] And it's not scary
[01:19:44] He's just really poorly executed
[01:19:46] Poorly paced and poorly directed
[01:19:48] To create tension
[01:19:49] He does shaky cam
[01:19:51] So there's a part where
[01:19:52] Army Hammers says
[01:19:53] Oh my god what's happening
[01:19:54] To my girlfriend Dakota Johnson
[01:19:55] I don't remember the real names
[01:19:56] In the movie
[01:19:57] Oh Carrie and Will got it
[01:19:59] And so
[01:20:00] He runs up and the camera's all shaking
[01:20:02] And you know it's supposed to create tension
[01:20:04] And said wow this is film school
[01:20:06] 101
[01:20:07] So it's just never worked
[01:20:10] And the ending is trying to be creative
[01:20:12] And it's just stupid
[01:20:13] So yeah if you want to watch that
[01:20:15] Henry said he was looking forward to it
[01:20:16] Whatever
[01:20:17] I'll have to check it out
[01:20:18] But there was people
[01:20:19] I'd say the audience was about
[01:20:20] Split in our theater
[01:20:21] There's people that thought it was really gross
[01:20:23] And I don't know if I'm just conditioned
[01:20:24] Because I've seen so many horror films
[01:20:25] And I'm like whatever
[01:20:26] This is stupid
[01:20:27] So yeah whatever
[01:20:28] Another one I watched
[01:20:30] My favorite one was called
[01:20:31] Scare Package
[01:20:32] And it was Anthology
[01:20:34] Which is seven different directors
[01:20:36] Made seven different films
[01:20:38] And it's a really
[01:20:40] Self-aware movie
[01:20:41] And it was really fun
[01:20:42] So it opens with this dude named Mike
[01:20:44] And he's just walking to this fork in the road
[01:20:46] And he's trying to spin this arrow
[01:20:48] And it says
[01:20:49] Abandoned haunted insane asylum
[01:20:51] Or something
[01:20:52] And so he's trying to point the arrow
[01:20:54] And so this
[01:20:56] Band full of teenagers comes up
[01:20:57] And they go we don't want to go that way
[01:20:59] There's an abandoned
[01:21:00] Assain asylum that's haunted
[01:21:01] And then you find out that he's a dude
[01:21:03] In the horror films that cuts power
[01:21:05] Or sends people the wrong way
[01:21:07] He sets up like demonic toys
[01:21:09] And so the film is really clever
[01:21:11] Because at that point
[01:21:12] So when he's setting up the demonic toys
[01:21:13] It goes like
[01:21:14] Like the grainy film
[01:21:16] And then it cuts to him
[01:21:17] Like dropping him
[01:21:18] He's like fuck
[01:21:19] That's pretty funny
[01:21:20] He's a little bookstubio
[01:21:25] Yeah and then
[01:21:26] He
[01:21:27] Then he's talking to his cop friend
[01:21:29] And she says
[01:21:30] How do you think I feel
[01:21:31] I always shoot people on the left shoulder
[01:21:32] Like she can never kill people
[01:21:34] So at the end he tries to insert himself
[01:21:36] Into like these babysitters
[01:21:38] Because he cuts the power
[01:21:39] And he ends up accidentally killing him
[01:21:41] And he
[01:21:46] And so he
[01:21:48] This girl accidentally runs into a knife
[01:21:50] So he pulls down a mask
[01:21:52] And he pulls a knife out
[01:21:53] And sprays blood all over his face
[01:21:54] And then the cop comes in
[01:21:55] And chews him in the left shoulder
[01:21:56] And it's pretty funny
[01:21:59] Yeah so it's
[01:22:00] Really clever
[01:22:01] The big wrap around stories
[01:22:03] Called Rad Chad's video store
[01:22:05] Where it says really douchey dude
[01:22:07] Who wants to have a friend
[01:22:08] And this little Asian guy named Han
[01:22:10] Comes in and applies for the job
[01:22:12] And there's a creepy dude
[01:22:13] Who hangs around the store
[01:22:15] There's a crazy one called
[01:22:17] One Time in the Woods
[01:22:18] Where it just balls the wall gore
[01:22:21] It's
[01:22:22] Most of them are really really good
[01:22:24] I thought I liked it more
[01:22:25] Than Nightmare Cinema
[01:22:26] It was more fun
[01:22:28] But then there was two
[01:22:30] That so after
[01:22:31] Once
[01:22:32] There was a time in the woods
[01:22:33] Where it's just people melting
[01:22:34] Getting their heads chopped off
[01:22:35] There's a part where this dude
[01:22:36] Throws a ball and it hits a dude in the head
[01:22:37] And it goes
[01:22:38] Makes an explosion sound
[01:22:39] And the head blows up
[01:22:41] And then it cuts to this one
[01:22:42] Where it's funny
[01:22:43] It's a werewolf movie
[01:22:44] Or segment
[01:22:46] But it seems like a huge let down
[01:22:47] Because it comes right after
[01:22:48] The high of this
[01:22:51] Insane one
[01:22:52] And then it comes back again
[01:22:53] I can't remember the order
[01:22:54] And then it goes to
[01:22:56] This Han dude picks up this movie
[01:22:57] And it says
[01:22:59] Post feminism
[01:23:00] Slasher
[01:23:01] Female revenge story
[01:23:03] And it's just stupid
[01:23:04] And then it brings it down again
[01:23:05] But then it picks back up
[01:23:07] But it's really fun
[01:23:08] If you have a chance to see
[01:23:09] Scare package
[01:23:10] I definitely recommend it
[01:23:11] Okay
[01:23:12] Would I like it having
[01:23:14] The shit out of Nightmare Cinema
[01:23:15] Oh yeah
[01:23:16] You can tell it's limited
[01:23:18] A lot like Nightmare Cinema
[01:23:20] But I think it's a little more clever
[01:23:22] But you have to be a fan
[01:23:23] Of horror films because it's a lot of
[01:23:25] Hey remember this time in a horror film
[01:23:26] Remember this stuff in a horror film
[01:23:28] Okay cool right on
[01:23:29] Well I really like Nightmare Cinema
[01:23:30] That's definitely a my top top
[01:23:33] I also watched a movie called
[01:23:34] The Deeper You Dig
[01:23:36] Which the cool thing about this movie
[01:23:39] Is actually made by a family
[01:23:41] So the writers
[01:23:43] So there's three of them
[01:23:45] A wife and a husband
[01:23:46] And their daughter who's like 15
[01:23:48] And they all directed it
[01:23:49] They all wrote it
[01:23:52] And it's really well shot
[01:23:55] They cared a lot about the cinematography
[01:23:58] And so that's what really impressed me
[01:23:59] About the movie
[01:24:00] The story is ho hum
[01:24:02] This dude accidentally kills this girl
[01:24:05] And then she comes back
[01:24:07] And haunts him and her mom's a psychic
[01:24:10] So she knows that this dude did it
[01:24:13] I think the story's a little clumsy
[01:24:16] But it looks really good
[01:24:18] I mean there are shots in there
[01:24:19] And they go wow these people
[01:24:20] Really like the Cohen brothers
[01:24:23] And Hitchcock
[01:24:25] They do a lot of pitch black
[01:24:28] Silhouettes with you know the
[01:24:30] And one part of the screen there'll be color
[01:24:32] Like out of window
[01:24:33] But you see everybody else moving in shadows
[01:24:35] I mean the effects are pretty lame
[01:24:37] It's not scary
[01:24:39] But I was impressed that it was a family
[01:24:41] That did it
[01:24:43] And they all had their own thing
[01:24:44] And the director afterwards is saying
[01:24:46] Yeah you know I'm not very good at
[01:24:47] Tracking shots
[01:24:49] So my 15 year old daughter does
[01:24:50] The tracking shots
[01:24:52] Is really impressive
[01:24:54] In that regard
[01:24:55] Interesting
[01:24:57] And the last movie I watched was called
[01:24:58] Porno
[01:24:59] And it's about this small Christian town
[01:25:01] Movie theater
[01:25:03] It's in 1992
[01:25:05] And they show a league of their own
[01:25:09] And fuck
[01:25:11] Encino man
[01:25:13] Are the only two movies they show
[01:25:15] And then on Friday nights
[01:25:16] They're allowed to watch any movie they want
[01:25:18] Can be a league of their own or Encino man
[01:25:20] And while they're there
[01:25:22] Some crazy old dude breaks into the basement
[01:25:24] And they find a burned out
[01:25:25] Overtoned to it
[01:25:27] And it's a succubus
[01:25:28] And she's actually real
[01:25:29] And when you play this film
[01:25:30] She comes out and
[01:25:32] Basically brings out the worst
[01:25:34] Perverted part of you
[01:25:35] So if you're a peeping tom
[01:25:37] Or
[01:25:39] Stuff like that
[01:25:40] And then she kills you
[01:25:41] Like basically mutilates your genitalia
[01:25:42] By doing it
[01:25:44] And it's pretty balls to the wall
[01:25:46] It's pretty good
[01:25:47] They have like the gore is great
[01:25:49] There's lots of nudity
[01:25:51] Because the succubus
[01:25:52] Is really attractive
[01:25:54] And it takes a while to get going
[01:25:55] Because they let the characters build up a little bit
[01:25:57] So I liked that aspect of it
[01:25:59] So yeah
[01:26:00] All in all those three films are really good
[01:26:02] I'll never see wounds again
[01:26:04] The other ones I'll watch again
[01:26:07] And then what else did I see
[01:26:09] I saw Adams Family this week
[01:26:11] Was it fun?
[01:26:12] No
[01:26:13] I, Kellyn really wanted to see it
[01:26:15] Kellyn really liked spooky movies
[01:26:17] So when War and I got back
[01:26:19] We went inside
[01:26:21] And the whole time I said
[01:26:22] It was really boring
[01:26:24] That was my fear
[01:26:26] And it seems like they're just setting up
[01:26:28] Like Charlie's Theron plays Morticia
[01:26:30] So they'll say
[01:26:32] I don't want to go to school today
[01:26:34] But honey, it's ghoul day
[01:26:36] You know really stupid puns
[01:26:38] Throughout it
[01:26:39] Nick Kroll's pretty good as Uncle Fester
[01:26:42] That reminds me a lot of the cartoon strips
[01:26:45] You see for Charles Adams' original creation
[01:26:47] Yeah so I mean that's basically what it is
[01:26:49] But they're just trying to remind you
[01:26:50] That oh Wednesday's really boring
[01:26:53] And then they just try to
[01:26:56] Okay buddy
[01:27:00] And so they just keep on trying to
[01:27:02] I don't know
[01:27:03] And then they have a loose thing of a plot
[01:27:05] Where the Adams kids have to compete
[01:27:07] In this sword competition
[01:27:09] Or you won't become an Adams
[01:27:11] What in the fuck is this
[01:27:13] To be honest
[01:27:15] My knowledge of the Adams Family
[01:27:17] Extends in 500 different directions
[01:27:19] So I've never been really clear on other
[01:27:21] The cartoons by Charles Adams
[01:27:22] Back in the day
[01:27:24] Are literally just
[01:27:26] It's no different than a peanuts thing
[01:27:28] Where you can kind of take it wherever you want
[01:27:30] But be careful that you don't lose the spirit of it
[01:27:32] Yeah I don't know
[01:27:34] I was more of a Munster's guy
[01:27:36] So maybe that's why too
[01:27:38] Man I mean you're not wrong
[01:27:40] Yeah I know I'm not
[01:27:42] Those Adams Family's movies though
[01:27:44] That Barry Sonnenfeld did a lot of fun
[01:27:46] Oh yeah no those are fun
[01:27:48] And this one like the character design
[01:27:50] Is really annoying too
[01:27:52] Why are some of their heads really
[01:27:54] That's Charles Adams designs
[01:27:56] That's why those are the old old strips
[01:27:58] And that's fine
[01:28:00] But still it's really distracting and 3D
[01:28:03] Yeah
[01:28:05] We'll get ready because there's a sequel already set up for 2021
[01:28:07] So yeah that's what I watched this week
[01:28:09] How is Snoop Dogg his cousin it
[01:28:11] He doesn't
[01:28:13] He makes the noises like they do in the
[01:28:15] But does he do them correctly
[01:28:17] I mean his voice is distorted
[01:28:19] Oh so it's like that
[01:28:20] I mean it does roll up in a Snoop Dogg rap
[01:28:22] So they just made sure they put that in there
[01:28:24] So I thought that was just a trailer thing
[01:28:26] So okay that's in that movie alright
[01:28:28] I might still watch it anyway
[01:28:30] Yeah I mean I'd wait till it's on Netflix or something
[01:28:32] But it is I was so bored in that movie
[01:28:34] Most even kids movies I can get entertained in
[01:28:37] Yeah
[01:28:39] But it's like I was watching Alvin and Chipmunks Chipwreck
[01:28:41] I just
[01:28:43] Yep
[01:28:45] I'll tell you though like sometimes they surprise me
[01:28:47] Like the Peabody and Sherman movies surprise me when I watched it on Netflix
[01:28:48] I'm like man I would have watched this in a theater this was fun
[01:28:51] Yep
[01:28:53] Two things I forgot
[01:28:55] I watched Jexy
[01:28:57] The Siri thing
[01:28:59] Yeah the
[01:29:01] Her but a comedy I guess
[01:29:03] And it
[01:29:06] It's really funny when the cell phone voice
[01:29:10] Which I guess is Roseburn
[01:29:12] Hubba hubba hubba
[01:29:14] Just being really mean to what's his name
[01:29:16] Adam DeVine
[01:29:18] But that's about it
[01:29:20] Like there's a subplot where he's just trying not to be a loser in his whole life
[01:29:22] And get with this girl who runs a bike shop
[01:29:24] But yeah other than that
[01:29:26] The only really part I was entertained by was
[01:29:29] Yeah
[01:29:31] A murderous phone
[01:29:33] Not murderous but she's like just really mean
[01:29:35] Okay
[01:29:37] And she rips on everybody
[01:29:39] And what is his name from?
[01:29:41] And it is his boss
[01:29:43] Michael Pena
[01:29:45] And he's an even bigger loser
[01:29:46] In the movie like the cell phone is transferred to him
[01:29:49] So that he can like fix his life
[01:29:52] And then I forgot to mention
[01:29:54] In going around town
[01:29:56] Jean-Claude Van Damme's Dam Van
[01:29:58] Is having a fifth anniversary screening
[01:30:00] At the Bug Theater on November 10th
[01:30:02] To the day
[01:30:04] That it premiered in 2014
[01:30:06] So we'll be showing the movie again
[01:30:08] This time with the new bug screen
[01:30:10] And 5.1 surround system
[01:30:12] And then the bonus features
[01:30:14] That will be on the Blu-ray
[01:30:16] And a bunch of behind the scenes footage
[01:30:18] And then like another 35
[01:30:20] Of outtakes and bloopers
[01:30:22] Cool
[01:30:24] Hope I can make it
[01:30:26] I think I have to work that day
[01:30:28] What day is it?
[01:30:30] It's a Sunday
[01:30:32] Yeah so hope I can make it down there
[01:30:34] I'll be down there
[01:30:36] As long as I get off on time I can make it
[01:30:38] But I'll get there just in time
[01:30:40] Just so I can be like made it
[01:30:42] If you want to skip the movie
[01:30:44] You know just show up at like 8.30 or something
[01:30:46] Commercial in the movie
[01:30:48] So I've got to be there
[01:30:50] See yourself
[01:30:52] My brief glimpse of me
[01:30:54] Like my narcissism runs deep guys
[01:30:56] You have no idea
[01:30:58] You're in the behind the scenes shots so
[01:31:00] Oh that's right
[01:31:02] Well yeah cause like
[01:31:04] Yeah you're in it
[01:31:06] But I didn't do anything else on the film
[01:31:08] I don't remember did I
[01:31:10] It was just that commercial right
[01:31:12] There's like an outtake of you guys running away
[01:31:14] That's like different from the movie
[01:31:16] Yeah it's awesome
[01:31:18] I'm working hard to get the blue ray done
[01:31:21] For the party
[01:31:23] So you're gonna have it for sale?
[01:31:25] Yeah but we'll see
[01:31:27] Well to be TBD
[01:31:29] If the blue ray will be there
[01:31:31] It's funny just like when we premiered it
[01:31:33] The day before I was shooting
[01:31:35] Someone else's project
[01:31:37] So I was really tired and
[01:31:39] Like didn't
[01:31:41] Like host the show very well
[01:31:43] If you watched the bonus features
[01:31:44] I was really tired
[01:31:46] Cause I was up all night doing that
[01:31:48] But this year again
[01:31:50] The day before I was shooting someone's music video
[01:31:53] And also the movie wasn't finished
[01:31:55] For that screening
[01:31:57] And now I'm like worried about
[01:31:59] Like the blue ray not getting done for this screening
[01:32:01] So it's just like history repeats itself
[01:32:03] Yeah things ID just all comes back
[01:32:05] Full circle
[01:32:07] Here we are
[01:32:09] Speaking of history repeating itself
[01:32:11] This week on Real Nerds podcast
[01:32:12] I like that that was nice Brian
[01:32:14] Brad should people see J. and Simon Bob reboot?
[01:32:17] Yeah if you're a fan of those characters
[01:32:19] And in this universe
[01:32:21] I think it's a fun stroll down memory lane
[01:32:24] It's a little rough to see all those characters older
[01:32:27] Like it's amazing how much they've aged
[01:32:30] In 10 years
[01:32:32] Shocking
[01:32:34] But I wasn't really into the
[01:32:37] Father storyline
[01:32:40] Like didn't resonate with me obviously
[01:32:43] But a lot of the jokes are fun
[01:32:45] But it also seems like a lot of the cinematography is pretty lazy
[01:32:48] It's a lot of just two shots
[01:32:51] Not that creative
[01:32:53] It's never made me come into Smith movie
[01:32:55] Stuff around like
[01:32:57] Zachary make a porno
[01:32:59] And clerks too I think are shot really well
[01:33:01] Yeah fair enough
[01:33:03] And Dogma has some scale to it
[01:33:05] And even chasing Amy
[01:33:07] Chasing Amy has actually very great cinematography
[01:33:09] This is very much just like there's two characters in the frame talking for most of it
[01:33:14] And then
[01:33:16] Yeah so
[01:33:18] I think if you are just like a fan of the universe
[01:33:20] You'll enjoy it if you're not a fan
[01:33:22] Like it's not gonna win you over
[01:33:24] So cool Zach
[01:33:26] Yeah
[01:33:28] Kind of echoing Brad's sentiments of
[01:33:31] If you are into the View of Skewniverse
[01:33:33] This is
[01:33:35] A fun return visit to some old friends
[01:33:37] Which this was for me
[01:33:41] It was also
[01:33:43] Weird to walk out of it
[01:33:45] And realize how much I had changed in so many years
[01:33:47] Since the last time those characters were on a screen
[01:33:49] Which was clerk two at this point
[01:33:52] And while I liked the movie
[01:33:54] And had a lot of fun
[01:33:56] And I think I was laughing louder than anybody
[01:33:58] Because there was just so much stuff
[01:34:00] That connects back to that universe
[01:34:02] That I'm still in tuned with on a knowledge level
[01:34:04] My
[01:34:05] My reception of it probably wasn't the same
[01:34:08] However
[01:34:10] This is Jason Muses best performance in a movie
[01:34:13] And I like the
[01:34:15] Emotional core of the film
[01:34:17] And we'll get into that in the spoilers
[01:34:19] But I think it's a nice return to form for Kevin
[01:34:23] In terms of stories that clearly mean a lot to him
[01:34:26] I like a lot of his work
[01:34:28] With Outside of the View of Skewniverse
[01:34:30] But clearly this world means a lot to him
[01:34:32] And he puts a lot of passion behind it
[01:34:33] So I would check it out
[01:34:35] Yeah, I had a lot of fun with the movie
[01:34:37] You know, I did miss these characters a lot
[01:34:39] I had a lot of fun watching it
[01:34:41] My one complaint is
[01:34:43] While Jay and Silent Bob have always been drug dealers
[01:34:46] This movie leaned really heavily into the drug aspect of it
[01:34:49] Which they never really did before
[01:34:52] Well that's
[01:34:54] There's a reason for that
[01:34:56] Well yeah I know
[01:34:58] But there are some really fun moments in it
[01:35:00] And I agree if you have never seen
[01:35:01] A View of Skewniverse movie
[01:35:03] You will not like this movie
[01:35:05] Because if you just won't get it
[01:35:07] There's way too many callbacks
[01:35:09] It's a big old in-joke
[01:35:11] Which is not to be interrupted
[01:35:13] That's why our screening was lightly attended
[01:35:15] And this is like a fathom event
[01:35:17] So it was fun
[01:35:19] Yeah, here's a trailer for Jay and Silent Bob Reboot
[01:35:25] I know you in there
[01:35:27] Come out right now
[01:35:40] He's got a fucking dick
[01:35:42] He's just got a tough dick
[01:35:44] Identify yourselves motherfucker
[01:35:46] I'm Jay
[01:35:48] And this is my head with life made
[01:35:50] Silent Bob
[01:35:53] Don't tell me you guys have no idea
[01:35:55] There's a new comic book movie
[01:35:57] Being made of the old comic book movie
[01:35:59] You two are the basis for
[01:36:01] That old ass star studded piece of shit
[01:36:03] That movie Suck Balls
[01:36:05] Suck Asshole too
[01:36:07] Your honor, I object
[01:36:09] I'll allow it
[01:36:11] That movie did suck balls and asshole
[01:36:13] We got three days to get to Hollywood
[01:36:14] From Everhat
[01:36:16] Boys, I had a baby
[01:36:18] Jay, brace yourself
[01:36:20] You're about to meet our love team
[01:36:22] I think I'm gonna need to see a blood test
[01:36:26] No Jay, this is my daughter
[01:36:28] Millennium Vulcan
[01:36:30] Can you take us
[01:36:32] To Hollywood with you?
[01:36:34] Fuck no man
[01:36:36] It's a tough ass neighborhood
[01:36:38] Either you take us to Hollywood
[01:36:40] Or I stab you both to death
[01:36:42] On my own fucking lawn
[01:36:44] We cue the music
[01:36:48] Fuck
[01:36:50] I'm glad you guys were smoking back there
[01:36:52] I was driving someone about a week ago
[01:36:54] And he took a big shit
[01:36:56] You have no idea how hard it is
[01:36:58] To get the smell out of pleather
[01:37:02] Your methods
[01:37:04] Let's do this
[01:37:06] Fuck
[01:37:13] Yay
[01:37:15] It's Jay
[01:37:17] And Silent Bob
[01:37:19] I found out I have a kid
[01:37:21] But I don't know how to be a father
[01:37:23] Anybody with cum
[01:37:25] Can be a father
[01:37:27] But only love can make you a dad
[01:37:29] How are you gonna talk about love
[01:37:31] And you flinging cum all over the place
[01:37:33] That shit's unseemly, bro
[01:37:37] What do you guys think about this reboot?
[01:37:39] It sucks
[01:37:41] There, I said it
[01:37:43] And who's directing this shit anyway?
[01:37:45] Kevin fucking Smith
[01:37:47] Smells like this reboot
[01:37:49] And up and smoking
[01:37:51] There's a reboot of the shitty movie
[01:37:53] That was made about them a long time ago
[01:37:55] So they're going to Hollywood
[01:37:57] The blunt man and chronic movie
[01:37:59] Because the new producers have also stolen their
[01:38:01] Their normal names
[01:38:04] Which is
[01:38:06] Just as long as that lawyer
[01:38:08] Which just as long as really great in that
[01:38:10] I couldn't tell if he was doing the Randy St. Randy character
[01:38:13] From Zach and Mary
[01:38:15] Like, I was just like
[01:38:17] Is he trying to connect those two in the universe?
[01:38:19] I'm like that can't be
[01:38:21] Totally the same
[01:38:23] But I loved hearing it again
[01:38:25] Because that's one of my favorite moments in Zach and Mary
[01:38:27] Is when he's doing all the porno titles
[01:38:29] So, it's
[01:38:31] I miss movies like that where it's
[01:38:33] The set up is so stupid
[01:38:35] You know where he has them sign these contracts
[01:38:37] And then he walks from one side of it
[01:38:40] Yeah, that worked twice
[01:38:42] He walks from one side of
[01:38:44] The courtroom to the other
[01:38:46] Cause he went from defending them
[01:38:48] To prosecuting against them
[01:38:49] Strike back was
[01:38:51] Strike back is a flat out cartoon
[01:38:53] It's really silly
[01:38:55] Did you see Craig Robinson's name card?
[01:38:57] Cause he's the judge
[01:38:59] But he's judged Jerry in executioner
[01:39:03] It's funny, Craig Robinson's really great in it
[01:39:07] Joe Manginello's bailiff
[01:39:09] Frankie Shaw just out of nowhere
[01:39:11] The gal from Smelf
[01:39:14] But yeah, and then they go to visit
[01:39:17] Brody in the mall
[01:39:19] And they cued
[01:39:21] You know what, this movie had me hooked into
[01:39:24] Like on my good side
[01:39:26] When they recued that social song by Squirt Gun
[01:39:29] That opens mall rats
[01:39:31] I was like, man I'm back in the fucking mode for this
[01:39:33] It was funny cause Brody took over the Ben Affleck role
[01:39:36] Because he has the same lines as Ben Affleck
[01:39:39] And Strike Back
[01:39:41] They even have the same look at the camera
[01:39:43] Yeah
[01:39:45] Well he's basically doing both Affleck
[01:39:47] And his scenes from Strike Back
[01:39:49] Brody's also in the Brody Secret Stash
[01:39:52] In the first one
[01:39:54] I like that, like gotta protect the store from all the mall rats
[01:39:58] Like mall rats? No, there's literal rats in the mall
[01:40:01] Yeah
[01:40:03] I love the sound effects
[01:40:05] And then they decide they're gonna go on the road
[01:40:08] I like that their favorite movie is How High
[01:40:11] Also a fun update for Silent Bob
[01:40:14] Is that he can communicate through text
[01:40:16] Yeah
[01:40:17] So just being silent
[01:40:19] I thought that joke would get weary on me for a while
[01:40:22] But it just always put a smile on my face
[01:40:24] Cause he's clearly doing bullshit texting on it
[01:40:28] It's just a fun thing
[01:40:30] Everything just ends up being an emoji
[01:40:32] But he's constantly tapping the screen
[01:40:34] Like he's writing out a diatribe
[01:40:36] Again, it's like a cartoon
[01:40:38] Oh yeah, their return to movie was really funny
[01:40:40] Where he wanted vegan options
[01:40:42] So he did an eggplant
[01:40:44] He didn't know eggplant is fucking
[01:40:45] In all the welcome signs
[01:40:47] Say like welcome, like C-U-M
[01:40:49] I love shit like
[01:40:51] I love, you know Fred
[01:40:53] Fuck
[01:40:55] Fred Armisen
[01:40:57] Yeah, his character, they call him Merkin
[01:40:59] Oh and that follow up when he's on top of the van
[01:41:01] He's like throwing the hater tots
[01:41:04] That was a weird sequence
[01:41:06] Cause it looked like the store was just closed the whole time
[01:41:08] Yeah
[01:41:10] Like the lights were off and there was no one in the drive through
[01:41:12] But they were in the drive through
[01:41:13] And then he's on the van
[01:41:17] And then
[01:41:19] He just hit his head
[01:41:21] Is he okay?
[01:41:23] It's his fault, fuck him
[01:41:25] But yeah, the scene
[01:41:27] Matt Damon's portion is like
[01:41:30] It's one of two moments where
[01:41:32] It kinda threw me off with the editing
[01:41:34] I know why he's doing it
[01:41:36] And it works within the scope of the film
[01:41:38] And it's insanity and breaking the fourth wall in the meta humor
[01:41:40] It just felt really weird the way they cut into it
[01:41:43] I forgot to say like the pacing in the movie was really weird in places
[01:41:46] Like he needed another pass at the edit
[01:41:48] Cause like some jokes were going too long
[01:41:52] But then like there'd be like a gap
[01:41:54] I don't know if the timing felt really off in places
[01:41:56] Yeah, his rescue, well Jay meets his daughter, Millennium Falcon
[01:42:02] I mean Shannon Lisbeth hasn't aged at all
[01:42:04] She looks great
[01:42:06] But yeah
[01:42:08] And then the saving them from the KKK
[01:42:10] I guess he was doing a knock on Glenn Gary
[01:42:11] Glenn Gary, Glenn Gary
[01:42:14] Yeah he's doing house follow-ins monologue
[01:42:16] And it's a funny moment
[01:42:18] But I mean my mouth was open cause I'm just like
[01:42:20] Is he really doing this?
[01:42:22] It's wishful
[01:42:24] It was a wishful film that moment
[01:42:26] Like he's good excuse for him to be able to do that
[01:42:28] But yeah that whole diversion cause
[01:42:30] You don't see the girls get captured
[01:42:32] No
[01:42:34] And like the van is
[01:42:36] Like I'm not sure how they followed the van
[01:42:38] But they do find it
[01:42:39] Feels like it's only like three feet down the road
[01:42:42] But anytime you're going to beat up some clansmen
[01:42:44] I'm totally down with them regardless
[01:42:46] Oh no I'm down with like being a clansman
[01:42:48] Just seemed really weird and out of place
[01:42:50] It's a weird insert in the movie
[01:42:52] But it's not fun
[01:42:54] You know I think the Ben Affleck moment
[01:42:56] Is the best part of the movie
[01:42:58] Cause there is that weight with him and Affleck
[01:43:01] And that you know how he brings it back around
[01:43:04] That he's chasing Amy and it's his daughter
[01:43:06] I think is really sweet
[01:43:07] It's really well done
[01:43:09] And Affleck crushes it
[01:43:11] You know he's such a
[01:43:13] I think he's an underappreciated actor
[01:43:15] Yeah it's a really good performance
[01:43:17] It's my second favorite performance in the movie
[01:43:20] I think Muse crushes this film
[01:43:23] Because when he
[01:43:25] They did an introduction at the beginning with Fathom
[01:43:27] And Kevin was saying something about like
[01:43:29] You know like you're going to see Jason go to a place
[01:43:32] You've never seen before
[01:43:34] And I was like what the hell is he
[01:43:35] I don't know about the introduction
[01:43:37] Didn't they say stay tuned after the movie
[01:43:39] Cause there's more bonus stuff
[01:43:41] Oh yeah that never happened
[01:43:43] Yeah no that never happened
[01:43:45] He meant the credit stuff
[01:43:47] But I thought there would be at least more than just the one scene
[01:43:49] Which is a great scene
[01:43:51] Like the fact that they've been plugging the
[01:43:53] The gum in the lock
[01:43:55] For 30 years
[01:43:57] If they ended it on that
[01:43:59] And not clerk 3
[01:44:01] That'd be a fine way to end the view of Skeeterverse
[01:44:02] And Falcon and Jay
[01:44:04] Is
[01:44:06] There's a lot of
[01:44:08] I've read a lot of reviews that say it's Kevin Smith's take on fatherhood
[01:44:10] And I assume it is
[01:44:12] But I also have to believe it's a lot of it
[01:44:14] Might have to do with when Jason Muse recently became a father
[01:44:16] Well that's really autobiographical for Muse
[01:44:19] Because if you know his story he didn't know his dad
[01:44:21] His mom was a junkie who
[01:44:23] Threw him in the closet
[01:44:25] Yeah so
[01:44:27] So like I mean like
[01:44:29] I'm not expecting every review to understand that fully
[01:44:30] But like because they may not have read the me in my shadow thing that was on his blog
[01:44:34] But
[01:44:36] I think Muse
[01:44:38] Muse has to cry in this movie
[01:44:40] And it's it broke me in many places
[01:44:43] Like it's a great performance
[01:44:45] And it's I never expected that out of the character
[01:44:48] But my favorite moment in the film
[01:44:50] Other than Chris Hemsworth
[01:44:52] That is a hot sweet still hologram
[01:44:55] Roost still apply
[01:44:58] Between that and Thor Ragnarok
[01:45:00] Chris Hemsworth fucking every job ever
[01:45:02] But no
[01:45:04] You know the franchise got like 37 of them
[01:45:06] Yeah
[01:45:08] But no the the athlec scene is great
[01:45:10] But I always I always maintain in my head that
[01:45:15] Some of the best shots cinematically that Smith does
[01:45:18] Is in front of the quick stop
[01:45:20] Now I know it's not the exact quick stop as Brad was telling me
[01:45:23] But that opening scene
[01:45:26] Where Dante gets arrested and goes like
[01:45:28] It's about Randall isn't it? I'll tell you where he lives
[01:45:31] But at the very end when Millennium Falcon and Jay are standing right outside the quick stop
[01:45:37] And he's just like I'm not know I'm sure if I'm ready for this father stuff
[01:45:40] So I want to try it out and hands are a cup of coffee
[01:45:43] And they start talking about everything they've been through
[01:45:45] And it was like
[01:45:47] That's the moment where I was just like man like
[01:45:50] I may have a different like outlook on Smith's
[01:45:54] Uvra now because I've gotten older
[01:45:55] But that stuff will hit me right in the fucking heart strings every fucking time
[01:46:00] I've always maintained that Smith is the only filmmaker alive today that wears his heart on his sleeve
[01:46:06] I don't think there's any other director that does it as the way he does it
[01:46:09] And in the style that he does it like he's a fantastic writer for that reason
[01:46:15] But that that moment outside of quick stop with them having that moment
[01:46:20] I'm like that that's one of Muse's best moments because it it it's him being emotional while still being Jay
[01:46:28] Like it the character never leaves even though it goes to an emotional place
[01:46:33] It's it's pretty amazing
[01:46:35] Yeah, I'm that being said like my issue with the film ultimately is the editing is a little off
[01:46:41] Which sucks because I think Smith is a great editor
[01:46:44] In his earlier films and I think that that's changed a lot over the past couple of years
[01:46:48] And I don't know exactly what that's about
[01:46:51] Well, I have a I have any ideas but I guess there's like probably another half hour worth of this movie that yeah
[01:46:59] Yeah, his blunt man v chronic
[01:47:02] Yeah, there's been more about that and it left a lot to be desired. It wasn't that funny. I don't think it was that inspiredly shot
[01:47:09] Yeah, it felt like none of those characters were in the same room at the same time either
[01:47:12] No, yeah, totally
[01:47:13] And like there's a rule about crossing though like 180 line and you know
[01:47:18] Chronic and blunt man aren't facing each other correctly at some points
[01:47:22] Well, yeah talking on the same side of screen to each other. It's really weird and the plot twist with
[01:47:28] The podcaster friend. Oh, yeah, that was very weird
[01:47:33] I don't mind it but it was it was very much out of nowhere. Yeah, and I mean so
[01:47:38] Millennium Falcon and her friends like the blunt so everyone passes out but they don't yeah
[01:47:45] This was just weird like inconsistencies
[01:47:48] And it just tries you're trying to get be funny about dope and it's not funny. Yeah
[01:47:53] It's well, it's a weed comedy like that's the ultimate thing like these movies have always been
[01:47:58] Stoner comedies in one form or fashion whether or not they operate really leans in oh, I know I mean yeah
[01:48:04] Well, I mean what part I mean mauracy makes them before they go on the love connection thing. Yeah, well that's and that's brownies
[01:48:11] Oh, no, they get them smoke. Yeah, and I mean what's clerks to is they just deal drugs to those kids on the outside
[01:48:17] That's it. Yeah, I mean I think ultimately it's just the the slide
[01:48:21] It's the slacker attitude that has permeated through those films like since
[01:48:26] 94 when clerks first popped out like it is about hanging out and just chilling out in the
[01:48:31] Conversations are more key than any cinematic
[01:48:35] Element to it although I think chasing Amy like I said is shot beautifully like and it tells a great love story
[01:48:40] And there's no dope in chasing Amy. No
[01:48:43] I think ultimately it is just Jay and Bob in that because the movie is not focused on that but it has the same hangout quality
[01:48:49] I guess I don't know like I
[01:48:53] Mean like that's the thing like I mean even though it's we leaning into the weed element
[01:48:57] And that's certainly something that doesn't relate to me much anymore, but I I didn't mind it as much but I
[01:49:05] There's a part of me. That's a little I rollie about it, but I also don't care because like if that's what he wants to do
[01:49:11] That's what he wants to do like it didn't take away the emotional core
[01:49:15] If it had distracted from that then I would have been missed, but no, yeah, it totally works
[01:49:21] Cool next week. We're seeing zombie land double tap. Yeah rule number two
[01:49:25] Yep
[01:49:27] Y'all have fun with that. I'm gonna go make a horror movie in the Hampshire. Just you and I huh? All right. Yep James is gonna join us
[01:49:32] Oh be it. Is he I don't know
[01:49:37] Yeah
[01:49:39] Yeah, that'd be fun. Yeah, I mean I've already seen it is fun. Oh
[01:49:43] Yeah
[01:49:44] I'll probably see it at some point after I get back and tell you all that I hated it
[01:49:48] You should see it because it's really fun. Is it better than the first three T's are really fun
[01:49:54] Teezers for next week
[01:49:58] Bye I think after that is the Terminator Dark Fate. Yeah. Yeah
[01:50:03] It's not a red band trade for that looks awesome
[01:50:05] Mmm
[01:50:06] That terminators like running through really a police department or something just chopping people in half and stuff. It's pretty awesome
[01:50:12] I hope so it looks like the other movies to me, so I'm not my expectations are low
[01:50:16] I mean and it ends with Sarah Connor saying her job is to kill fucking terminators. So
[01:50:21] I'm down Tim Miller directed it. So it should be fun and then JoJo Ratton's coming out at some point next week
[01:50:27] Yeah
[01:50:28] So maybe we'll just punt that for a few weeks. Yeah cuz I know remember has some dead weeks
[01:50:32] Maybe I don't remember I have to look at it
[01:50:38] The the Terminator like I realized that that like the trailer just sells that whole bridge sequence
[01:50:44] Which is like a bridge was the thing in
[01:50:46] Deadpool that like tied the movie together, so it's like Tim Miller has a bridge thing
[01:50:51] He likes bridges. Oh and also I'll look for us to do some Denver film festival stuff
[01:50:56] Oh, yeah, yeah invited to cover that. Yeah, we got by to cover it
