You 18 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 4: are in the desert. I got that right, That's right. 19 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 3: You can tell it looks like the old day. I 20 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:56,800 Speaker 3: think it was hell. But it looks gorgeous. And that's 21 00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 3: such a big part of movie making. Location, location, location, 22 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 3: and we got some good ones. 23 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:04,679 Speaker 5: Dude. 24 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 3: We're out in the desert and the glorious dunes, blue sky, 25 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:12,679 Speaker 3: white sand. We're out in the snow, the snow Peaks, 26 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 3: Mountains of Canada, glorious blizzard Dune, the rock Johnson's nipples 27 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 3: were like cutting. And then of course we're back in 28 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 3: Hawaii as well. We've got to hit that glorious jungle, 29 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:27,479 Speaker 3: but we had to take it to the next level, 30 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 3: so we had to go beyond the jungle this time. 31 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,679 Speaker 2: Jack, you're a pretty confident blake. Were there any moments 32 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 2: that you're standing next to rock where you thought yourself, 33 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 2: I could probably take this guy on if there was 34 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 2: any opportunity. 35 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 1: Then we did get into a fight. Do you reckon? 36 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: You'd go against the rock? 37 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:45,400 Speaker 3: Well, I mean there's always there's always a technique. They 38 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 3: can get you through any kind of scrape. If you're 39 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 3: willing to play dirty, you know, go for the jewels, 40 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 3: go for the tender bit. Run where I go. I 41 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 3: go straight to the seasons, curly. 42 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 4: And just speedball on the rocks, balls, both fists rolling 43 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 4: over the top of each other. And you've got him 44 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 4: a beauty. 45 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: Now, that would be a. 46 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:13,920 Speaker 3: Jamanji that I ran bring hercules to his knees. That 47 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 3: would be a weird son. 48 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:16,799 Speaker 4: But I like the idea of it. 49 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 2: You've been in some great movies over the years. Jack, 50 00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 2: we spoke to you about this the. 51 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: Last time, and showing your kids. 52 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 2: You've got kids now as well, you can show your 53 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 2: kids some of the movies that you've been in, like 54 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 2: Jumanji and. 55 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 1: Stuff like that. 56 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 2: Jake, I'd like to get your advice because I've made 57 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,679 Speaker 2: some mistakes this year with my two boys, they're ten 58 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 2: and six. 59 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:38,279 Speaker 1: For a tenth. 60 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 2: Birthday, I took him and his mates to go and 61 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 2: see Seth Rogan's new movie Good Boys. They've seen, They've 62 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 2: seen super Bad. I took also took my six year 63 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,079 Speaker 2: old Planet of the Apes a couple of years ago, 64 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 2: and he got a little bit freaked out and had 65 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 2: to leave. 66 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 4: I mean, you. 67 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 1: Like the idea. 68 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 2: Are you okay with taking your kids to go and 69 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 2: see movies like this? I mean, you're they going to 70 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 2: do it anyway with their mates at some stage? 71 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 3: Well? I do. I do also win the Bad Parents 72 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 3: of the Year Award occasionally good and let them see 73 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,359 Speaker 3: movies that they probably shouldn't. It's best when you have 74 00:03:14,480 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 3: the remote control in hand, so that if something gets 75 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 3: out of control, you can pause and have a little 76 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 3: talk as long as you're there and aware of what's 77 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 3: going on, and you're you're you're ready to talk to 78 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 3: them or ready to leave. If they ever like say, 79 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:32,799 Speaker 3: hey it's too intense, I want to know. I think 80 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 3: it's okay. If they're really begging to see a movie, 81 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 3: you go, all right, well let's go see what's happening here. 82 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: What about you're a rock star as well? 83 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 3: Jack? 84 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: Can we talk about gigs then as well? 85 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,920 Speaker 2: Because one of the highlights as a dad is that 86 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 2: I took my two boys their first ever gig.
