It stars 28 00:01:22,184 --> 00:01:24,024 Speaker 2: Eric Banner and Sam Neil. 29 00:01:24,504 --> 00:01:26,704 Speaker 1: Oh your favor, Sam Neil, so good. 30 00:01:26,824 --> 00:01:29,944 Speaker 2: It is just like a season, but it's kind of 31 00:01:29,944 --> 00:01:33,744 Speaker 2: a crime drama. There's not many comedy elements in it, 32 00:01:33,784 --> 00:01:38,184 Speaker 2: but it's not super super dark. It is so captivating. 33 00:01:38,424 --> 00:01:41,384 Speaker 2: I watched all episodes in one night. 34 00:01:41,784 --> 00:01:42,864 Speaker 1: Wow, in one night. 35 00:01:42,904 --> 00:01:44,584 Speaker 2: I went a bed at one am because I just 36 00:01:44,664 --> 00:01:45,424 Speaker 2: had to find out. 37 00:01:45,504 --> 00:01:47,064 Speaker 1: So I do love when that happens. 38 00:01:47,144 --> 00:01:49,984 Speaker 2: It is like a mystery. It's set in the Yosemite Reserve, 39 00:01:50,224 --> 00:01:54,544 Speaker 2: so it's like very beautiful scenes. Eric Banner plays this 40 00:01:54,624 --> 00:01:57,864 Speaker 2: detective on horseback because he can't get his car through 41 00:01:57,904 --> 00:02:00,344 Speaker 2: all of the forest. Oh, she's just constantly on a horse. 42 00:02:00,664 --> 00:02:03,104 Speaker 2: And Sam Neil plays like his boss who's also his 43 00:02:03,184 --> 00:02:06,424 Speaker 2: best friend. And it starts off with a death, like 44 00:02:06,464 --> 00:02:09,784 Speaker 2: this woman dies. It seems like a murder, so Eric 45 00:02:09,824 --> 00:02:14,264 Speaker 2: Banners character investigates it. He brings on this rookie Neya 46 00:02:14,304 --> 00:02:18,104 Speaker 2: who's played by Lily Santiago. She is absolutely brilliant. And 47 00:02:18,144 --> 00:02:20,584 Speaker 2: it's not one of those like detective shows where like 48 00:02:20,944 --> 00:02:23,944 Speaker 2: the fresh new face detectives trying to impress the old 49 00:02:23,984 --> 00:02:27,504 Speaker 2: timey detective. It doesn't fall into any of those like tropes, 50 00:02:27,544 --> 00:02:30,544 Speaker 2: those mystery tropes. It's just so fresh and new, and 51 00:02:30,584 --> 00:02:33,824 Speaker 2: there's so many plot twists and the plot line is beautiful, 52 00:02:33,864 --> 00:02:36,664 Speaker 2: the scenes are beautiful. It will literally captivate you from 53 00:02:36,704 --> 00:02:38,784 Speaker 2: beginning to end. It's also a really good show to 54 00:02:38,784 --> 00:02:41,224 Speaker 2: talk to your uncle about because everyone who's watched the 55 00:02:41,304 --> 00:02:43,304 Speaker 2: shows either been my dad or my uncle. Yea, yeah, 56 00:02:43,344 --> 00:02:44,144 Speaker 2: so they love the show. 57 00:02:44,184 --> 00:02:46,304 Speaker 1: So a very safe one to bring up at family one, 58 00:02:46,504 --> 00:02:47,264 Speaker 1: Very very safe. 59 00:02:47,304 --> 00:02:48,744 Speaker 2: It will be one of like, this is the show 60 00:02:48,744 --> 00:02:50,464 Speaker 2: you want to recommend a family lunch and everyone be 61 00:02:50,464 --> 00:02:52,304 Speaker 2: like whoa. Every single person on the table will be like, 62 00:02:52,304 --> 00:02:55,784 Speaker 2: wholl I need to watch that? So they're untamed on Netflix. 63 00:02:55,984 --> 00:02:59,864 Speaker 1: Okay, love that. Okay, So I know that when I 64 00:02:59,984 --> 00:03:02,464 Speaker 1: created We Can Watch, I set the rule of it 65 00:03:02,584 --> 00:03:05,264 Speaker 1: had to be shows and movies that came out this week, 66 00:03:05,344 --> 00:03:06,544 Speaker 1: which you've already broken. 67 00:03:06,704 --> 00:03:07,704 Speaker 2: I break multiple times. 68 00:03:07,904 --> 00:03:10,784 Speaker 1: Yeah, I know you're terrible at following the rules. And 69 00:03:10,824 --> 00:03:14,544 Speaker 1: it also had to be ideally one recommendation each, So 70 00:03:14,584 --> 00:03:18,264 Speaker 1: today I have four. Is it my fault? There's so 71 00:03:18,344 --> 00:03:20,544 Speaker 1: much good new stuff out this week that I wanted 72 00:03:20,624 --> 00:03:23,664 Speaker 1: the list. So I'm going to go through these ones 73 00:03:23,664 --> 00:03:25,624 Speaker 1: like kind of a little bit rapid fire. We'll put 74 00:03:25,664 --> 00:03:28,144 Speaker 1: the titles in the show notes, so don't freak out 75 00:03:28,144 --> 00:03:30,024 Speaker 1: if you're like Laura, you talk really fast and I 76 00:03:30,024 --> 00:03:32,344 Speaker 1: didn't understand you, just go to the show notes. So 77 00:03:32,464 --> 00:03:35,424 Speaker 1: the first one I wanted to recommend is a TV 78 00:03:35,464 --> 00:03:37,864 Speaker 1: show that came out on stand earlier this week called 79 00:03:37,904 --> 00:03:40,904 Speaker 1: The Hunting Wives.

And I was like, Vanessa, 265 00:12:47,704 --> 00:12:50,144 Speaker 1: I remember spending half a day with you. Are you kidding? 266 00:12:50,544 --> 00:12:52,264 Speaker 1: So yeah, that was crazy. So we'll link that in 267 00:12:52,344 --> 00:12:54,944 Speaker 1: our show notes. We also put the full interviews up 268 00:12:54,984 --> 00:12:57,504 Speaker 1: on YouTube. They've gone crazy for numbers. We put the 269 00:12:57,584 --> 00:12:59,224 Speaker 1: videos out, so that's all out there. After all that, 270 00:12:59,224 --> 00:13:01,664 Speaker 1: I still hadn't seen the actual movie. So Tuesday night 271 00:13:01,744 --> 00:13:03,384 Speaker 1: I went to a place where you and I have 272 00:13:03,464 --> 00:13:05,304 Speaker 1: both had good and bad memories. I went to the 273 00:13:05,384 --> 00:13:06,624 Speaker 1: Imax for the premiere. 274 00:13:07,584 --> 00:13:08,384 Speaker 2: Where did you sit in me? 275 00:13:08,744 --> 00:13:11,184 Speaker 1: Oh my god? So for Yeah, for people who don't know, 276 00:13:11,464 --> 00:13:13,744 Speaker 1: Emily and I once were late to a premiere at 277 00:13:13,744 --> 00:13:15,304 Speaker 1: the Imax and it was my fault. 278 00:13:15,424 --> 00:13:18,064 Speaker 2: This story reeks the privilege. By the way, like every 279 00:13:18,144 --> 00:13:20,744 Speaker 2: type no I saw people we got free tickets to 280 00:13:20,784 --> 00:13:22,584 Speaker 2: the Imax and we were so mad. 281 00:13:22,984 --> 00:13:25,344 Speaker 1: It wasn't worth it for the free tickets. Okay. The 282 00:13:25,504 --> 00:13:28,464 Speaker 1: floor of this particular Imax, which is in Sydney and 283 00:13:28,504 --> 00:13:30,184 Speaker 1: where a lot of premieres are held. And I think 284 00:13:30,224 --> 00:13:31,944 Speaker 1: it's important because even if you don't live in Sydney, 285 00:13:32,264 --> 00:13:34,384 Speaker 1: all your reviews would be coming from the people who 286 00:13:34,464 --> 00:13:36,304 Speaker 1: in that theater. And I think it's so important to 287 00:13:36,384 --> 00:13:39,104 Speaker 1: stress that half the people can't see the screen because 288 00:13:39,224 --> 00:13:41,464 Speaker 1: it's a huge, huge screen. It's definitely the biggest screen 289 00:13:41,464 --> 00:13:42,984 Speaker 1: in Australia. But it's also like the biggest screen of 290 00:13:43,064 --> 00:13:43,584 Speaker 1: like half. 291 00:13:43,424 --> 00:13:45,544 Speaker 2: The halftive screen. But if you're sitting in the first 292 00:13:45,624 --> 00:13:46,824 Speaker 2: I want to say five rows. 293 00:13:46,904 --> 00:13:49,384 Speaker 1: Yeah, just leave. You can't, it's not worth it. You 294 00:13:49,504 --> 00:13:51,944 Speaker 1: and I watched the Marvels there, which I feel like 295 00:13:52,024 --> 00:13:54,104 Speaker 1: we did like, but I couldn't tell you what happened 296 00:13:54,144 --> 00:13:56,504 Speaker 1: because we were in the movie. You were in the movie, 297 00:13:56,504 --> 00:13:58,544 Speaker 1: and I had a seizure, so both of us. 298 00:13:58,624 --> 00:14:00,984 Speaker 2: Like, my neck has never felt so much pain. And 299 00:14:01,104 --> 00:14:02,664 Speaker 2: we were in the second row. We weren't even in 300 00:14:02,664 --> 00:14:04,544 Speaker 2: the first way. We were in the second row. And 301 00:14:04,664 --> 00:14:06,864 Speaker 2: then if someone, if a character walked across the screen, 302 00:14:07,064 --> 00:14:09,064 Speaker 2: our whole row had to turn their heads to see 303 00:14:09,064 --> 00:14:09,464 Speaker 2: where they. 304 00:14:09,424 --> 00:14:12,064 Speaker 1: Went at least see one part of the screen anytime. 305 00:14:12,144 --> 00:14:13,904 Speaker 1: So you really had to pick which character you wanted 306 00:14:13,904 --> 00:14:15,104 Speaker 1: to follow it, and the rest of the other characters 307 00:14:15,144 --> 00:14:17,344 Speaker 1: couldn't even tell you what happened. So the next time 308 00:14:17,384 --> 00:14:18,584 Speaker 1: you and I went to a premiere there with the 309 00:14:18,704 --> 00:14:21,264 Speaker 1: first ones through the door, and we had to almost 310 00:14:21,304 --> 00:14:22,144 Speaker 1: do that this time, and. 311 00:14:22,424 --> 00:14:24,904 Speaker 2: I was I'm very strict about our IMAX viewings. We 312 00:14:25,024 --> 00:14:27,024 Speaker 2: have to be there half an hour early, yeah, to 313 00:14:27,104 --> 00:14:29,024 Speaker 2: get a seat at the back, because even if you're 314 00:14:29,064 --> 00:14:29,464 Speaker 2: in the middle. 315 00:14:29,544 --> 00:14:31,424 Speaker 1: It's still quite big, which is where we were for 316 00:14:31,504 --> 00:14:33,944 Speaker 1: Fantastic for because even though we got their early, the 317 00:14:34,024 --> 00:14:37,064 Speaker 1: Marvel reviewers and not to be trifled with. So I 318 00:14:37,184 --> 00:14:38,944 Speaker 1: just want you guys to sometimes know what we go 319 00:14:39,144 --> 00:14:42,104 Speaker 1: through to get you these reviews. It's not all free 320 00:14:42,184 --> 00:14:45,624 Speaker 1: champagne and free popcorn, although there was that there So 321 00:14:45,744 --> 00:14:48,664 Speaker 1: the movie Yeah, okay, I know we have talked about this. 322 00:14:48,784 --> 00:14:52,264 Speaker 1: Marvel's had a few stumbling box since Endgame correct and 323 00:14:52,984 --> 00:14:55,584 Speaker 1: we loved Thunderbolts, but it didn't perform as well. 324 00:14:55,704 --> 00:14:58,184 Speaker 2: I also loved Captain America, which a lot of people didn't. 325 00:14:58,744 --> 00:15:00,984 Speaker 1: I didn't love Brave New World, Yeah, which was the 326 00:15:01,064 --> 00:15:02,424 Speaker 1: Anthony Mackie Captain America, and. 327 00:15:02,464 --> 00:15:03,904 Speaker 2: I I just love Anthony Mackie. 328 00:15:04,064 --> 00:15:05,944 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean. And also that's not just us saying 329 00:15:05,984 --> 00:15:09,544 Speaker 1: that a lot of their recent projects have not performed 330 00:15:09,544 --> 00:15:11,824 Speaker 1: as they thought of the Bosox and have also had 331 00:15:12,104 --> 00:15:14,744 Speaker 1: bad reviews from critics and fans like and also Marvel 332 00:15:14,784 --> 00:15:16,824 Speaker 1: have also come out, I should say, and they have 333 00:15:17,024 --> 00:15:19,344 Speaker 1: acknowledged that they've gone off the path a little bit. 334 00:15:19,584 --> 00:15:22,264 Speaker 1: They put out too much content, too many stories, and 335 00:15:22,304 --> 00:15:24,184 Speaker 1: I think it's important to note that what they're saying 336 00:15:24,184 --> 00:15:26,864 Speaker 1: is Fantastic Four if you've dropped out of the Marvel 337 00:15:26,904 --> 00:15:29,024 Speaker 1: set about a universe, because you're like, I can't keep 338 00:15:29,104 --> 00:15:32,264 Speaker 1: up with ten different TV shows and ten different movies 339 00:15:32,344 --> 00:15:34,264 Speaker 1: just to go and watch this movie. The thing about 340 00:15:34,264 --> 00:15:36,704 Speaker 1: the Fantastic Four is that you don't need to do homework. 341 00:15:36,824 --> 00:15:39,344 Speaker 1: That's the official line from Marvel. No homework. You go 342 00:15:39,464 --> 00:15:41,944 Speaker 1: in with starting fresh. I love with this story. So 343 00:15:42,344 --> 00:15:44,984 Speaker 1: the Fantastic Four is known as Marvel's first Family. They're 344 00:15:45,024 --> 00:15:48,184 Speaker 1: like the original family from when these comic books first started. 345 00:15:48,544 --> 00:15:50,064 Speaker 1: I sort of won't go too much into the plot 346 00:15:50,104 --> 00:15:51,704 Speaker 1: because it's all really in the movie. You don't need 347 00:15:51,744 --> 00:15:54,504 Speaker 1: to know too much. But they're a group of astronauts 348 00:15:54,544 --> 00:15:57,624 Speaker 1: and scientists who go into space. An event happens, and 349 00:15:57,704 --> 00:15:59,384 Speaker 1: they come back to space, but they come back to 350 00:15:59,464 --> 00:16:02,784 Speaker 1: Earth with superpowers. So you've got to Venessa. Kobe's got 351 00:16:02,824 --> 00:16:04,664 Speaker 1: the you know, Soux Storm is like the invisible woman, 352 00:16:04,984 --> 00:16:08,024 Speaker 1: mister Fantastic played by Pedro Pascal. You know, the stretching 353 00:16:08,104 --> 00:16:08,584 Speaker 1: and stuff. 354 00:16:08,864 --> 00:16:12,184 Speaker 2: It's a very feminine being able to stretch, yeah. 355 00:16:11,984 --> 00:16:14,184 Speaker 1: And backflip and stuff. It's very cool. And then like 356 00:16:14,264 --> 00:16:17,384 Speaker 1: Johnny Storm played by Joseph Quinn, you know, can fly 357 00:16:17,624 --> 00:16:20,104 Speaker 1: and some of stuff. And then obviously Ben Grime's played 358 00:16:20,104 --> 00:16:23,064 Speaker 1: by Evan Mosse. Backcrack is the thing and you know, 359 00:16:23,264 --> 00:16:25,984 Speaker 1: the one who has the physical transformation. Yeah, so the 360 00:16:26,064 --> 00:16:28,584 Speaker 1: story isn't focusing on them getting their powers, even though 361 00:16:28,624 --> 00:16:30,224 Speaker 1: that is all explained at the beginning, So you can 362 00:16:30,264 --> 00:16:32,304 Speaker 1: go into this movie with no knowledge. I think they're 363 00:16:32,344 --> 00:16:34,784 Speaker 1: really stepping away from origin movies. It's like, how many 364 00:16:34,824 --> 00:16:36,384 Speaker 1: more times can we see a boy get bit by 365 00:16:36,384 --> 00:16:36,744 Speaker 1: a spider? 366 00:16:36,824 --> 00:16:39,304 Speaker 2: And also had a lot of Fantastic Four movies and 367 00:16:39,344 --> 00:16:41,024 Speaker 2: they've all done the Origin story. 368 00:16:41,184 --> 00:16:43,464 Speaker 1: Yes, they've all done the Origin story in different ways, 369 00:16:43,584 --> 00:16:45,824 Speaker 1: and this time they were just like, we start with 370 00:16:46,064 --> 00:16:48,264 Speaker 1: that information, it's explained how they got them, but then 371 00:16:48,304 --> 00:16:50,464 Speaker 1: we jump into the next part of the story. Also, 372 00:16:50,504 --> 00:16:54,304 Speaker 1: I've got to say, like visually stunning, it looks incredible, 373 00:16:54,384 --> 00:16:56,824 Speaker 1: It has its own tone feel, It's beautiful to look at, 374 00:16:57,224 --> 00:17:01,784 Speaker 1: action sequences, great pacing of the story excellent, Like it's 375 00:17:01,784 --> 00:17:03,944 Speaker 1: an hour and fifty five minutes and it went by 376 00:17:04,024 --> 00:17:05,864 Speaker 1: in a blink of an eye. There was no point 377 00:17:05,904 --> 00:17:08,704 Speaker 1: where you know, sometimes in superhero movies and action movies, 378 00:17:08,744 --> 00:17:11,464 Speaker 1: they stop and someone explains something fifty minutes or there's 379 00:17:11,824 --> 00:17:14,224 Speaker 1: big back and forth between these two guys and suits 380 00:17:14,224 --> 00:17:15,304 Speaker 1: and you know, and all that sort of stuff, and 381 00:17:15,304 --> 00:17:17,064 Speaker 1: you're just like, you're pulling me out of the story. 382 00:17:17,424 --> 00:17:19,544 Speaker 1: The pacing is off. There's all these scenes we don't need. 383 00:17:19,864 --> 00:17:22,064 Speaker 1: This one is like every scene is like bang bang 384 00:17:22,144 --> 00:17:24,584 Speaker 1: bang bang story. Story story. You'd see this from the 385 00:17:24,664 --> 00:17:28,944 Speaker 1: trailers that Pedron Vanessa have a baby, which I'm just saying, 386 00:17:28,984 --> 00:17:31,664 Speaker 1: fucking terrify to that baby's all powerful. But anyway, that's 387 00:17:31,664 --> 00:17:32,024 Speaker 1: a whole thing. 388 00:17:32,544 --> 00:17:33,064 Speaker 2: Incredibles. 389 00:17:33,664 --> 00:17:35,864 Speaker 1: Yeah, it actually feels like a lot like if you 390 00:17:36,024 --> 00:17:37,544 Speaker 1: like The Incredibles, you'll like this movie. 391 00:17:37,624 --> 00:17:39,744 Speaker 2: We also have the same powers as the Incredible. 392 00:17:40,024 --> 00:17:43,984 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a line there. At its core, it is 393 00:17:44,184 --> 00:17:48,224 Speaker 1: a family drama with action sequences, so it's also not 394 00:17:48,344 --> 00:17:51,224 Speaker 1: as bouncy and fun as some other Marvel movies. There's 395 00:17:51,264 --> 00:17:53,984 Speaker 1: definitely some fun moments, but it's I guess, more dramatic 396 00:17:54,024 --> 00:17:56,344 Speaker 1: and more intense. It also just feels the whole way 397 00:17:56,384 --> 00:17:59,304 Speaker 1: through like there's actual proper steaks, like the storyline stakes 398 00:17:59,344 --> 00:18:00,544 Speaker 1: feel very high. I love that. 399 00:18:00,624 --> 00:18:02,984 Speaker 2: I feel like that's what Marvel was missing, which is 400 00:18:03,024 --> 00:18:05,464 Speaker 2: why and I still haven't watched it, the new Superman 401 00:18:05,584 --> 00:18:08,824 Speaker 2: DC movie. Yeah, I'm glad it's had so many great 402 00:18:08,904 --> 00:18:10,744 Speaker 2: reviews because I feel like, for the love longest time, 403 00:18:10,784 --> 00:18:13,984 Speaker 2: Marvel's just been competing with Marvel, and now finally DC 404 00:18:14,224 --> 00:18:16,424 Speaker 2: has like come up to the stadium and it is 405 00:18:16,504 --> 00:18:19,704 Speaker 2: just like making a competitive for Marvel, which is what 406 00:18:19,784 --> 00:18:20,224 Speaker 2: they needed. 407 00:18:20,624 --> 00:18:22,624 Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm sort of holding my breath as they say 408 00:18:22,664 --> 00:18:24,024 Speaker 1: this because I don't want to jump at like a 409 00:18:24,064 --> 00:18:27,824 Speaker 1: head too much. But blockbusters are really they're back. Like 410 00:18:27,904 --> 00:18:29,784 Speaker 1: I know, I said cinema was back with Superman, but 411 00:18:30,304 --> 00:18:32,104 Speaker 1: seeing Superman and I, as I said on the pot 412 00:18:32,144 --> 00:18:34,544 Speaker 1: at the time, I love that so much. It also 413 00:18:34,664 --> 00:18:37,144 Speaker 1: felt like it wasn't lazy storytelling. It was made for 414 00:18:37,424 --> 00:18:40,304 Speaker 1: the audience and they knew how higher expectations were. And 415 00:18:40,664 --> 00:18:43,464 Speaker 1: Fantastic four First Steps also feels like that. It's like 416 00:18:43,504 --> 00:18:46,224 Speaker 1: they're trying to win us back so hard. I apply. 417 00:18:46,864 --> 00:18:48,504 Speaker 1: I love going into a movie theater and feel like 418 00:18:48,504 --> 00:18:50,664 Speaker 1: I'm being wood Like it's like they're not just churning 419 00:18:50,664 --> 00:18:51,904 Speaker 1: it out and being like we know that you'll just 420 00:18:51,944 --> 00:18:55,224 Speaker 1: watch this because it's Marvel. So Fantastic four First Steps, 421 00:18:55,264 --> 00:18:56,744 Speaker 1: I know we all got really caught up with the 422 00:18:56,784 --> 00:18:57,224 Speaker 1: press tour. 423 00:18:57,304 --> 00:18:58,424 Speaker 2: I think we're going to try to watch it in 424 00:18:58,544 --> 00:18:58,984 Speaker 2: me iMac. 425 00:18:59,184 --> 00:19:01,624 Speaker 1: I think you should just get there really okay, but 426 00:19:02,624 --> 00:19:04,384 Speaker 1: I feel like everyone should try and see it on 427 00:19:04,424 --> 00:19:05,984 Speaker 1: the big screen if you can. I know, move secuts 428 00:19:05,984 --> 00:19:09,104 Speaker 1: are expensive, but it really is a very immersive experience 429 00:19:09,224 --> 00:19:12,344 Speaker 1: and also all Castigrade in it, but it is Vanessa 430 00:19:12,424 --> 00:19:16,264 Speaker 1: Kirby's movie. Holy hell, she's amazing. Like I honestly give 431 00:19:16,264 --> 00:19:18,264 Speaker 1: her at least an Oscar nomination. I know they won't, 432 00:19:18,304 --> 00:19:21,384 Speaker 1: but like she's acting like she's in a Shakespearean play 433 00:19:22,104 --> 00:19:24,144 Speaker 1: and they've written the part like that for her. It's 434 00:19:24,224 --> 00:19:27,584 Speaker 1: not a throwaway part. Also just watching the whole thing 435 00:19:27,624 --> 00:19:29,864 Speaker 1: of like her being a mother and her giving birth 436 00:19:29,944 --> 00:19:32,304 Speaker 1: and space and like the steaks around it, and also 437 00:19:32,384 --> 00:19:34,504 Speaker 1: her being like this all powerful being. I think there's 438 00:19:34,544 --> 00:19:36,264 Speaker 1: just I feel like a lot of women walked out 439 00:19:36,264 --> 00:19:39,184 Speaker 1: of a cinema being like, yeah, like it's not this 440 00:19:39,344 --> 00:19:42,224 Speaker 1: throwaway feminism, Like it felt like it's wrapped through every 441 00:19:42,344 --> 00:19:45,904 Speaker 1: core of the movie. Fantastic four First Steps. It's a 442 00:19:45,984 --> 00:19:48,344 Speaker 1: great time.
