[00:01:22] every week we have seen a new movie and we have podcast our experience to the world. This week we saw Deadpool and Wolverine. I am joined this week as I am every week with my good old friend Brad. What's up 720? Yeah, look at you.
[00:01:40] Next week going to be the 719 or the 970. Is it 719 like Fort Collins? It is. We're at Denver. Yeah. I didn't know we I didn't know we were just Denver. I thought we are Colorado based, you know, reaching out to everybody.
[00:01:57] If I if I go further than that, you know, we are like a worldwide podcast. I'm going to have to like do all the area codes and. Gotcha. That we dominate in and it's just too many. So it is too many to count.
[00:02:10] I like Fort Collins have a great drive in so. They do. So yeah. So stay tuned. We will recommend Deadpool and Wolverine or not play the trailer than spoil the film. We'll also talk about movie news this week, which is the big week
[00:02:28] with Andy O'Connor dropping some Duff on us and films they've watched throughout the week. But Brad, I mentioned this two weeks ago and I can't believe I was right and I can't believe you're alive right now. You participated in the 48 hour film festival project and 15th time. Yes.
[00:02:50] And not only that, but you got drama or musical. I had you predict that. I don't know. I'm blaming you for cursing me with it. It's like it's like I know. You wanted me to get it so you make my life even more of a hell.
[00:03:07] But did you feel like you got pushed, you know, creatively because it's something you've never done? You know, when I got it, I was like I was pretty frustrated at the kickoff. I was so on top of that, I've been sick this week.
[00:03:26] So I tested positive for COVID on Friday morning 48 and earlier, five days earlier, I tested negative. So suddenly I'm in this like how what do I do now? Like I obviously can't film with people. So I waited a few hours, tried it again, got a negative result.
[00:03:46] But still, you know, how do you go up to everyone and be like, I'm fine. I tested positive and then negative. And obviously I'm showing symptoms. So no one feels safe around me. So I can't film. And then I'm so I go to kickoff.
[00:04:00] I'm like sitting at the back of the parking lot for everyone else filming and just letting my proxies handle everything for me, the contact stuff. And yeah, we draw. I draw a drama musical and I'm just like, oh,
[00:04:17] just bring it on like more like, OK, I'm going to drama, obviously, then I got in the car and I went, you know, so we had this plan with another team this year to do the same script, but different genre, right?
[00:04:33] So they're going to write something and then I'm going to take what they write and then form it to my genre. But I've got either musical or drama and drama is like, OK, you know, they had disaster film and something else. I forget at this point.
[00:04:47] But if they had like, I don't know, film the FEM is like one of their genres or like buddy film. You know, drama isn't probably going to be that different from what they do ultimately. So my needs to be different.
[00:05:04] And so I started settling the idea of like, maybe I have to do musical. And then I start to think, OK, well, Robert has always wanted to do death metal musical. Maybe this is finally his year. I haven't prepared him for this outcome.
[00:05:22] I haven't. I kind of assumed that I would be a team of one this year and I'm going to just like do some bullshit based off of what the other team does and just call it call it a weekend.
[00:05:33] But I'm driving. I'm like, you know, maybe Robert's free. I'll see, you know, worst you can say is no, right? Yeah, he was free. And so like, hey, man, this is your time like you've always wanted to do it. I'm not standing in your way.
[00:05:47] Do whatever you want. I don't give a shit. I need something in on Sunday and wait till next year. And so, yeah, he. Saturday morning, got started on it and wrote a little death metal musical for me.
[00:06:01] And then I had to figure out how to make that happen visually. And so how did you make it happen? Well, obviously, I couldn't film with the other team like I wanted. So I couldn't use their footage. Like I couldn't use their actors for my thing.
[00:06:19] So what we did was, you know, I had tested negative. And then I posted, you know, I was kind of waiting for the footage from their team to get shot. So I could figure out what I was going to do. So I was waiting for that.
[00:06:33] I decided to start to work on the poster. We I knew it was going to be based on a disaster movie they picked. So I was like, OK, Doomsday musical death metal. I can make that design. And so I made the poster and then a couple hours later,
[00:06:48] Zach Bynes texted me saying, Hey, I saw you might be doing like a metal thing. Do you need some band shirts or something? Because I got tons of those. I was like, you know what? Actually, I would love like I wish I could, but I might have COVID.
[00:07:03] I would love to just film, go to the bug and film a metal concert. And then I can spice that footage with the footage from the other team. He's like, dude, you know, well, social distance, but I'll do it.
[00:07:13] Like you can just set the camera up, go to the back of theater. I'll be on stage and I'll have a guitar. It was film some B roll of me pretending to do Robert Song. So that's what we did. I messed up.
[00:07:27] We went down there and we knocked it out. Nice. So I had my own footage and then eventually the other teams finished came in and I cut them together into Doomsday, which you can watch August 11th at the Bug Theatre at 3 p.m.
[00:07:44] But you should just by the whole day's block and see all the teams films because it's always pretty fun. But yeah, so what do they take from you then? Right there. Yeah, I know it's a little lopsided.
[00:07:58] Like if the planet had gone better, you know, I think it would have been more cohesive by I did their credits. You know, I had time to sit there and animate and things. So I did their titles and animation and their poster and all that.
[00:08:11] So you're a creative force behind the scenes this year. Yeah, if nothing else, like I think this is the first time two teams have worked on each other's projects at the same time. So even though they I got more out of the deal from them,
[00:08:28] you know, it's still like I rarely see single people working on multiple teams, you know? Yeah. Over the weekend. Usually, everyone's like isolated into their own stuff. But yeah, we were able to cross paths and make it harder for ourselves. Well, have you seen both films?
[00:08:51] I have. Which one's better? How dare you, sir? Obviously mine. But no, they're like. They're both good. Yeah. So did you totally edit it a different way to are they similar in structure and you just inserted the metal part? I made them very different, like.
[00:09:20] So like if this had worked, if I hadn't gotten sick from moving all the Esquire stuff, ideally, I would have taken their script verbatim and shot with their actors like they would have their footage. I would have taken some of it, but I would have like changed it
[00:09:38] and had them act to my genre. Right? And I got you and had my own footage to work with in some of theirs, right? And so, you know, they would have basically had their idea and their script twice in the contest. But like.
[00:09:55] How were they great at, you know, like, got you. Would one film get best use of line versus the other, even though the same actors are saying the same thing, you know? But like it really works better if like they got comedy and I got horror, right? Yeah.
[00:10:11] Like it's a drastically different look, but the bones of the thing are still there. So that's in our minds. That was how it was supposed to go. But like what ended up happening because I couldn't be in their house.
[00:10:23] So I had to just like you shoot your thing and they didn't have a ton of footage either. So, you know, it's once I saw that I was like, oh, man, like what am I going to fill mine with?
[00:10:35] Because, you know, I don't want to just like copy their edit. And, you know, I have to make this musical addition to it. So that's when once Zach was available to shoot, I was like, oh, this is going to work so I can feel.
[00:10:50] And actually by the end of it, I'd say like 70 percent of the footage is the metal concert. So it was more my footage than theirs. But the musical is based on their script. So. So did Robert just write one song and Bynes is mimicking what Robert did
[00:11:14] or did he perform Robert's song? Yeah, so we ended up shooting the concert like I think late Saturday night. So already like usually when we do the 48 we're done shooting by like seven o'clock on Saturday. So like I said, I waited Friday night for a script
[00:11:32] and then they started shooting. And I just had to like imagine what was going on. And then I just worked on graphic design, right? I'd start getting everyone's credits in order, you know, because we're going to have the same credits pretty much. And so designing those different styles.
[00:11:46] And then, yeah, so like by. I don't know, like 2 p.m. on Saturday, Robert had the song. And my directive was like, OK, you know, if you want to make this easy for yourself, like just take the script and do like Van Damme
[00:12:00] where you just all the lyrics are like the end of Ninja Turtles. Where they just like recite the movie. As a song, you know, everything that happens. Yeah. So. It was a little more challenging for Robert than I expected. He seemed to struggle a bit.
[00:12:18] Like I liked what he turned out, but he, you know, right away is like, you're not going to like this. And there was there's not a lot of lyrics. So what he did is very minimalist and funny. But I also said, like, look, we should do is like.
[00:12:35] Spend what you like, we're only shooting for four minutes, right? That's the minimum length you have to have. So I'm going to do like a minute prologue thing with no music, right? And then so now you only have to work with three.
[00:12:46] So take one minute to like really like come out there with like some hard metal and then dip in the middle to where it's like mellow. And then the last minute, come back again with it. And so yeah, just fill the time.
[00:13:01] And so that's the structure of it. So nice. But again, it clearly didn't alleviate too much for him because he just couldn't put together a lot of lyrics. But so I had we had the MP3. I took her to the bug.
[00:13:16] We could play it over the speakers there. And so Zach was able to stand there and we heard that song a lot. And so yeah, he just lip synced to it. And then you pretend to. So when you watch him play the guitar, obviously
[00:13:29] nerds are going to be like, those aren't the right notes. But it doesn't matter. We don't care. It's like it looks good enough. I like I edited the shit out of it. So there's just like tons of cuts, right? So good luck keeping track of everything.
[00:13:47] And then there's like some other cool stuff that almost spoil. But like it was like a last minute addition that I think is going to be like everyone has seen it. It's been like, oh my God, that's so much fun. Thank you.
[00:13:58] It's a good that's a good ad. So yeah, yeah, can't wait to share it. Good job as always. Thanks. That was really in depth. Do we have time for the movie review? Yeah, this week we saw Deadpool and Wolverine. Rad, do you recommend Deadpool and Wolverine?
[00:14:17] Yes, so much. Yes. This movie was a ton of fun. My only knock on it. I didn't get a full five stars is it's like so much to the movie. It's just a fourth wall break. I was like, I was desperate for a plot
[00:14:34] and just that's the story to happen. Very thin, but everything else around it is so much fun. You know, just kind of this big love letter to the end of Fox Marvel that I think everyone needed in this kind of down marble time
[00:14:54] just kind of lifts everything up to like all these dangling threads that have never been resolved, get resolved in this film. So yes, this is this movie was awesome. Probably the best thing this year at this point. Go see it. I mean, everyone's already seen it.
[00:15:09] It's going to break all the box office records. Yeah, this movie was a lot of fun. And I think you hit it right right off the bat is, you know, I kept on waiting for something this year to make me happy.
[00:15:26] And I have movies that I like this year, but I think overall this year, I felt there's nothing that's really broke through for me. And this movie definitely did from the opening. And I was on board almost immediately into this film.
[00:15:47] Oh my God, the women in my audience for that opening like screaming like they were at a concert. It was really. Yeah. So annoying. That's awesome. Fun. Here's a trailer for Deadpool and Wolverine. I know I turned everything into a joke, but I care.
[00:16:09] And I want to use that for something important. I waited a long time for this team up in my world. You're well regarded. You were an X-man. Fuck that. You were the X-man. The Wolverine is a hero in my world. You know, you ain't shit in mine.
[00:16:50] Scott used to beg me to wear this suit. So it's torn in the east, but I couldn't have them thinking I wanted to be there. I was too late. It's only nine people, but my entire world is right here in this picture.
[00:17:09] And I have no idea how to save it alone, but you, you know how to save. Whoever you think I am, you got the wrong guy. You were always a wrong guy. Till you weren't. Are you ready? Fuck you. I'm ready. I'm the Wolverine. Stop it.
[00:18:03] So you're right. The plot is not that big. Not that deep. Deadpool's world is going to cease to exist on an accelerated rate because the TVA from Loki and all this multi-verse stuff in the fifth phase of Marvel. So he's
[00:18:32] they want to bring him into the MCU is basically what's happening. And Deadpool decides he's going to use Wolverine, who is what's the name of an anchor? Anchor being anchor being to help him save his world and basically tell the TVA to go fuck themselves.
[00:18:55] And he ends up in the wasteland where we meet a lot of. 20th Century Fox and New Line Cinema, superheroes. And yeah, that's basically the story. But I love to because throughout this whole process, Hugh Jackman said he would only do it if they promised to not. Not.
[00:19:30] Mess with Logan because he thought that was a perfect ending for his character, Wolverine. Yeah, not shit on the legacy of Logan. Yeah. Yeah, the first five minutes. Literally, Desiccated Corpse. Yeah, Desiccating the Corpse. Yeah. And that just sets the tone for the whole movie
[00:19:48] because now everything is so on its nose and meta that you have to just basically buckle in and enjoy the ride. Yes, so much of the movie is like the TVA is literally Marvel trying to like, yeah, ruin their multiverse.
[00:20:05] And yeah, nothing is like new wants about it. Like it was fun, too, is it had the vibe of, you know, oh, Deadpool is going to be Avengers. Age of Ultron and things like that. And it that never came to pass.
[00:20:24] It was more of you're right, it was basically burying the 20th Century Fox Marvel movies and ushering it into the MCU. Yeah. And I mean, the my favorite cameo is Chris Evans as Johnny Storm because it's. Yeah.
[00:20:48] Like there's so many like I was surprised at how many cameos and surprises there actually were that hadn't been spoiled for me yet. No, yeah, me too. And that was just the first big one. Yeah. When he gets his skin ripped off. Oh my God.
[00:21:03] I was like, wow, they're not pulling any punches on this one. No, well, because what's great too about that moment is when they go. Why can't I remember? What's the name of the villainous in this? Cassandra. Yeah, Cassandra. Something Cassandra Nova.
[00:21:22] Yeah, where Wade Wilson is saying, man, he's saying that you're like a cum dumpster and all this stuff. He's like, I would never fucking say that. What are you talking about? And then he gets, you know, turned inside out. Yeah.
[00:21:33] And then the tag scene is him actually saying that and way worse. Yeah, that was like an awesome. Got you, fuckface. Yeah. Great. You know, too, though, there is some great human elements. I think Hugh Jackman in this movie is great.
[00:21:51] Oh, dude, when he goes off on Deadpool in the car or the van, like I was like, that's his Oscar clip right there. Yeah. And because it's what's cool, too, is he's, you know, he is Logan, but he is playing the character differently. He's way more bitter.
[00:22:14] He's way more resentful. And there is that moment with X-23 where she says, that's that's why we picked you because you were never the right guy. And there's just something about it, you know, in his physical command of it.
[00:22:31] I mean, there's funny jokes where, you know, Deadpool says, oh, this is why you're wearing this costume because your dad bod's gotten away from you. And then at the end of the movie where he shows up and he's completely shredded and he's like, oh my God. Yeah.
[00:22:47] It's hilarious. And I love Canadian Deadpool or the nice school or whatever. Nice pool? Yeah. Deadpool basically gets him murdered on purpose so he can have his dog. Oh, God. That's what Logan even says is that on purpose. Yeah. You can't regenerate. What's regenerate power? Coffee, no blood.
[00:23:11] And then drags him back through to get shot again. Yeah, just because it's awesome. Because even that means awesome with all the Deadpool's and they fucking like, eviscerate them and then they all come back together. That's, you know, it's like they they know Deadpool's
[00:23:29] regenerate. Like why are they even bothering with this? But it was fun. Yeah. And then they decided to stop fighting because Deadpool's sidekick shows up. Peter is like huge balls in his suit. And which what's. What was the name of the TVA Lady Ravens player? Renslayer.
[00:23:53] Yeah, Renslayer, where she's all in love with Peter too. Yeah. Also, I thought like Peter and was it like. A bunch of the characters from Deadpool 2 that got like killed in Deadpool 2 like we're like Peter died, right? Like he got like.
[00:24:11] Yeah, but remember he went back and he fucked with time and went back because Shatterstar died and he's there too. Yeah, Shatterstar was like, I thought they died. Yeah, I guess yeah, you fixed him. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's fun.
[00:24:26] And yeah, the fight inside the minivan was fucking awesome. Yeah, it's great when they like to. Pull back in like Deadpool's all tied up in seatbelts. Yeah. Such a confined space and yeah, you know, even because he has that scene, Hugh Jackman, where he just eviterates Deadpool.
[00:24:50] But then later on where he's with Sandra, and he's, you know, explaining why he's the way he is. It's so fucking good. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, there's also besides, I mean, Wesley Snipes being in this is crazy because dude, all those people being in this is crazy.
[00:25:07] Like Jennifer Garner back and like it's they got Gambit in there, Chane Tatum's the Gambit like he never had a movie. Henry Covell as a fucking Wolverine. Oh yeah. And like, yeah, all those Wolverine variants like comic accurate Wolverine like my audience is like roared at.
[00:25:30] Oh, dude, my audience is going crazy in this movie. Yeah. But yeah, like all those like and then like in the wasteland like they had Juggernaut, but they're like whatever version of Juggernaut it is this week or something like. Yeah.
[00:25:48] Because I couldn't get Vinny Jones back, I guess. I don't know why they couldn't make that happen. Yeah. But I was also like, you know, once they show Cassandra King can like rip Chinese Storm skin off. I was like, why is she pulling like Wolverine through the dirt?
[00:26:06] You know? Yeah. Like she'd do that to everybody, right? Well, I mean, just technically they can regenerate, right? Wolverine and Deadpool. Yeah. But like she could also just pull his adamantium apart, right? She's that powerful. I mean, I guess you could, yeah. Yeah. I don't know.
[00:26:25] And then, yeah, so it was that and then also like, you know, the whole thing with Vanessa being like wanting him to be a hero, kind of forcing him to find like a better job. I was like, that's kind of in the face of the first movie
[00:26:39] where they're kind of like loved each other for not like being the best people, you know? Yeah. So it's weird that she had that turn and that like that was the impetus for him to like go to different universe, try to apply for, yeah.
[00:26:54] It's like it's weird that he suddenly and also being like reluctant to even start the X-Force, you know? He's like, I want to be a part of a team. I want to be an Avenger as like didn't seem like in character. But I don't know. Maybe he changed.
[00:27:07] I would lose my mind if Robert Downey Jr. showed up in this film. I kept on expecting him to. But yeah, it's just a fun movie. And I wanted to have fun and I had tons of fun watching it. Yeah. And that's just what I needed.
[00:27:28] Because, you know, it seems like I said earlier I was waiting so long for a movie like this and it finally came in and it delivered. And it was fun. Like I had a lot of fun and you know, Ryan Reynolds is
[00:27:42] so good in it and Hugh Jackman is great. And I love that they also set up that, I mean, Hugh Jackman might even be another Marvel movie now. Which yeah, maybe like I know he has that line at the end
[00:27:58] of where he goes probably not but yeah, he seems open to it. But like, I don't know if I want them to like test that too much, you know, like Logan was so great and then like he gets away with this one.
[00:28:14] You know, it's like don't flirt with coming up with a bad one. You know, go out while you're on top. So. Yeah, I could see him in an Avengers movie though. Well, see though, I mean, yeah, because
[00:28:33] they know what's cool about this film too is it's really self contained. There's really no, it doesn't have any big pushing the agenda forward. You know, to me, it feels like it was just like a palette cleanse for Marvel.
[00:28:49] And now they're going to have, you know, Captain America, the Brave New World kind of reset the Marvel tone and then you have Fantastic Four and maybe Blade or the Thunderbolts then Fantastic Four. I forget how their release schedule is going to go, but
[00:29:09] I was actually kind of frustrated there were any consequences to it. Like, you know, I know Cassandra was going to annihilate everything except for the void, but like I felt like they could have gotten away with like, oh, she did prune a bunch of stuff.
[00:29:22] And so now we don't have to worry about the multiverse as much going forward. So yeah, but also like, I'll still be in to see how it works out. But isn't lucky sitting around there actually controlling the multiverse.
[00:29:34] So like, why wasn't he stepping in to like stop her from pruning? That was another question I had. Yeah. Well, I guess when it's more of mainstream Marvel quote unquote. Yeah, you can see this movie. It's awesome. Hey, this is a big movie news of the week.
[00:30:02] It's real news. So Marvel did the ultimate block being revealed at Comic Con this week where Robert Downey Jr is coming back to play Victor von Doom as Dr. Doom in the next two Avenger movies. And all I can say is it actually shocked me that reveal.
[00:30:34] Yeah, make it make sense, right? Um, yeah, the only thing I can say is, you know, Corinne and some people have said why would you have Robert Downey Jr come back if they don't play off of him
[00:30:50] some being some evil variant of Tony Stark, which I don't know if I would do go that route. Um, yeah, like no one wants to see like an evil Tony Stark, right? Yeah, I imagine he's just there to like be the performance, right?
[00:31:11] Yeah. And I think so too because like he's still Victor von Doom, but yeah. Yeah. And Doom pretty much wears a mask the whole time. So, um, you know, you're getting him for his ability to be an actor because he I mean
[00:31:26] in Oppenheimer, he's pretty much the villain in that movie and he's fucking awesome in it. So you I don't think you touch the Tony Stark thing. I just because they've had, I mean, you literally just thought with Chris Evans
[00:31:41] and human torch in Captain America. I mean, you can be an actor and play different roles. And you know, I'm not a fan with him being Tony Stark.
[00:31:55] I like him just being Victor von Doom and, you know, a genius scientist who happens to be the dictator of a world. Yeah. Just thrown behind the mask, distort his voice and it's like it's not Tony Stark. It's Victor von Doom.
[00:32:13] Yeah. Cause you mean, you obviously when you play it, you're not going to be the quick witted or I'm guessing he's going to be cold and calculated. Right. Cause Doom in the comics is never funny.
[00:32:26] He's very driven and I mean, he's constantly voted as the greatest comic book villain of all time. Just because he's so complicated and he hates Reed Richards. So I'd be shocked if he doesn't make some sort of appearance in Fantastic Four. Yeah.
[00:32:45] I don't know how they're going to pull it off, but obviously they probably have already written it somewhat and have a plan for him being in the film because they must have saw your poster, Brad, because the new Avengers movie is called Doomsday.
[00:32:59] They're just, you know, stealing it from you. Yeah. I just, you know, sitting there on Saturday thinking like, Doomsday, Doomsday, Doomsday. Like, I don't know this just popped into my head. It's like someone's trying to tell me something. I'll use this for a movie. Yeah.
[00:33:19] Yes. And I mean, how they pulled it off and you know, you're not allowed to film the panels, but somehow all that footage leaked of Robert Downey Jr. taken off the mask. And yeah, I don't know how it got leaked.
[00:33:35] But it was definitely one of the most shocking things that's come out of Comic-Con in forever. Yeah. Plus too, like that's an expensive ad. Oh yeah.
[00:33:49] You know, he kind of getting him out of end game was like, you don't have to pay this guy $50 million in movie anymore. So like, yeah, he's got to be more expensive now. Oh yeah. Did you read?
[00:34:02] You must have not read the article on Variety. Do you know how much they're paying them? No. $120 million. Oh man, that's better. Yeah. I mean, maybe you can get away with one, but if he's going to be a lasting character in this universe, that's... That's expensive.
[00:34:19] Yeah. Well, you know, he's mentioned he'll always come back. I mean, the money's nice, but... $120 million from what might just be a voiceover performance. Yeah.
[00:34:31] Yeah. I mean, I think he's going to be in it because Variety had this whole breakdown of what it entails and he has his own trailer, which you think he would anyways. But so I'm guessing he's going to be on set and stuff.
[00:34:46] So I'm going to be really interested to see how they play this because, you know, they're a little behind the eight ball. So we'll see. Yeah. It's definitely interesting. Yeah. I'm excited. We watch things throughout the week in a segment I call what we've been watching.
[00:35:06] So, yeah, this is the stuff we've been watching. Brad, what'd you watch this week? Just one thing. I finally saw the Coen Brothers, maybe Blood Simple. No, that's an old one. Yeah. Yeah. 84, part of the Alamos, 84 series. And yeah, I thought it was good.
[00:35:31] Not the movie I imagined. I guess from like all the stuff I've seen over time. But I think like the end, kind of like how it ends is like, like all the twists and turns are actually the most interesting part of it.
[00:35:52] It's about these two characters that are having an affair and this bar owner who catches them, finds out about it. And tries to have them killed. And then the hit man he hires kills him and runs off with this money.
[00:36:13] And then there's like a whole chain of events, like all the fallout of that like evidence-wise kind of leads to like a comedy of errors of misunderstanding. And yeah, things don't go the way anyone expected. So it's like a real slow bird type movie. And yeah.
[00:36:32] It definitely set the groundwork for the Coen brothers for sure. Yeah. Yeah, I haven't seen it in a long time, but it's one of those films that I always enjoyed
[00:36:41] because it's an older one, but very telling about how their filmography would play out over the next 40 years now. Yeah. Like a lot of, they made a lot of movies like this, but with like more comedy. This one's very, very like more serious.
[00:36:58] Yeah. Not a lot to laugh at. It's like it's pretty dark and like mean. Yeah. So that's what I watched. Yeah, I only watched one thing this week too. My kid is playing this really dumb game called Dreams where it's user created games.
[00:37:18] And so there's a lot of crap in it. And he found this one called the bad luck leprechaun. And he says, oh, he's so scary. I said, do you want to watch a movie with the real scary leprechaun?
[00:37:26] And he said, yeah, sure. So I put in the 1992 Warwick Davis leprechaun movie and my kid liked it because it's, you know, it's not a scary movie. It's a little gory, but it's totally stupid. Have you seen the leprechaun film, Brad?
[00:37:45] I think I have. That's one with Jennifer Aniston, right? Yeah. Yeah. I think I only seen part of it. This is as a kid, like the leprechaun falls like in a record player and gets like shredded. Uh, nope. No? Okay. Something else then.
[00:38:03] Yeah. No, this one they still has gold so he has to get it back. So the big thing is he want me gold. And it, you know, when he doesn't have all his gold, he doesn't have all his powers.
[00:38:13] So he just goes around killing people trying to get his gold back. And, you know, as the leprechaun want to do, um, I don't know. It's one of those guilty pleasure movies for me.
[00:38:23] It was definitely when I would rent it blockbuster all the time because it was always in the heyday of, you know, the direct to video horror films that blockbuster, even though this one went into theaters and I think it made like eight million dollars.
[00:38:35] Yeah. So it's a silly movie and I wanted to be a bad father for a night. So I showed it to my kid. Um, and yeah, that's literally all I watched this week. Right on. Uh, next week we are seeing fly me to the moon.
[00:38:54] Um, so we hope to see you at the theaters at some point next week and film explosion 1994 is going to happen. I believe in two weeks, Brad, if my calendar is right. Is that what you got in two weeks?
[00:39:09] Yeah, because I think next week is something we want to see. If I remember right, I don't have to look at the release calendar. Um, well next week I will be out of town. So or next week I'll be out of town two weeks. We'll figure it out.
[00:39:25] Yeah. Just start thinking of those lists. But we are definitely overdue on film explosions. So they're coming until next week. We'll see you at the movies.
[00:40:14] And that's how you fucking do it.
