There's a lot, a lot of cool kind 0:10:02.960 --> 0:10:04.800 of love that parallels to those movies. 0:10:04.800 --> 0:10:08.000 So feel like a movie made about Now you're gonna 0:10:08.120 --> 0:10:10.760 see kids in a dark room playing video games. 0:10:10.600 --> 0:10:13.680 Yeah, exactly, They're gonna be youtubing bikes. Yeah. Now, it's 0:10:13.800 --> 0:10:17.160 not the same. The movie stars Sean Aston as Leonard Kinsey. 0:10:17.360 --> 0:10:19.760 He's just fifteen years old and one year after his 0:10:19.880 --> 0:10:23.480 breakout performance in the Goonies, which is such a good movie. 0:10:23.800 --> 0:10:26.360 And this movie is obviously heavily influenced by having a 0:10:26.360 --> 0:10:28.840 group of ragtag friends that go on a bit of 0:10:28.840 --> 0:10:30.520 an adventure together against adults. 0:10:30.800 --> 0:10:33.080 All sounds very familiar, but I'm here for it. 0:10:33.760 --> 0:10:37.120 He is the son of legendary actress Patty Duke, and 0:10:37.240 --> 0:10:40.840 Aston would turn his child acting career into a massive homography, 0:10:40.840 --> 0:10:45.400 including Rudy Toy, Soldiers, Fifty First States, Stranger Things, and 0:10:45.480 --> 0:10:48.080 of course the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I am 0:10:48.120 --> 0:10:51.920 also going to add oh Whitewater Summer with Kevin Bacon. 0:10:52.040 --> 0:10:52.559 Oh. 0:10:52.600 --> 0:10:56.200 He was like our child actor for a long time. 0:10:56.240 --> 0:10:59.480 When you're watching Goonies and you're watching these movies, Sean 0:10:59.520 --> 0:11:02.400 Aston would hop up somewhere. This movie also marks the 0:11:02.440 --> 0:11:06.560 debut of a young Nia long as Darla Perkins, who's 0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:10.520 just sixteen and on her way to become a huge 0:11:10.600 --> 0:11:11.320 holliway star. 0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:15.360 Gorgeous all ready, this is one of the most stunning 0:11:15.440 --> 0:11:16.760 actresses and she is. 0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:20.760 She's good too, so young and so beautiful. 0:11:21.480 --> 0:11:24.480 You, of course have seen her in Boys in the Hood, Friday, Fresh, 0:11:24.480 --> 0:11:27.520 Prince of bel Air, Soul Food, Big Mama's House, You People, 0:11:27.600 --> 0:11:29.000 and so much more. 0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:31.240 Show so much more force in. 0:11:31.200 --> 0:11:33.960 The industry, and it's really fun to kind of see 0:11:34.000 --> 0:11:34.920 where it all started. 0:11:35.080 --> 0:11:38.400 Yeah, she was suck Cue and she was I also. 0:11:38.240 --> 0:11:40.080 Have to give a big shout out to our second 0:11:40.080 --> 0:11:44.120 movie ever with Jason Preson. Yes, who again we talk 0:11:44.160 --> 0:11:47.920 about movies that matter to me, Explorers. Oh, he was 0:11:47.920 --> 0:11:50.120 so great. He was also in this. We've also covered 0:11:50.160 --> 0:11:53.400 him already in The Leftovers. He was the inventor in 0:11:53.440 --> 0:11:56.319 The Left was the inventor in The Left and The Leftovers. Yeah, 0:11:56.360 --> 0:11:59.400 he invented the newspaper cannon that you thought was real 0:11:59.559 --> 0:12:00.959 during all of the eighties, which. 0:12:00.920 --> 0:12:03.520 Hey, I mean, it was so impressive. It might have 0:12:03.600 --> 0:12:05.560 been you just didn't have one in Connecticut. 0:12:05.720 --> 0:12:08.640 It's true. That's also true. We just said hear ye, 0:12:08.760 --> 0:12:09.920 hear ye, and rang a big bell. 0:12:10.120 --> 0:12:10.840 Oh got it? 0:12:11.000 --> 0:12:16.560 So Jason another enormous child star. He was great in everything. 0:12:16.679 --> 0:12:18.880 Go check out his resume because he's another one who 0:12:18.920 --> 0:12:23.320 was around forever. Yes, the length of this movie really 0:12:23.360 --> 0:12:25.960 does differ depending on where you watch it, but we've 0:12:26.000 --> 0:12:30.760 confirmed it again. We've said double triple checked. It is 0:12:31.920 --> 0:12:33.240 ninety one minutes long. 0:12:33.640 --> 0:12:38.000 Oh night mark. 0:12:39.160 --> 0:12:39.760 The bulls Eye. 0:12:39.800 --> 0:12:42.920 It's the closest we've come, but still is not technically 0:12:43.559 --> 0:12:46.280 a bulls Eye. It was directed by Molly Miller, who 0:12:46.280 --> 0:12:48.400 only has a handful of credits, which include Parent Trap 0:12:48.440 --> 0:12:51.440 three and Parent Trap Hawaiian The Honeymoon, which I've never 0:12:51.480 --> 0:12:51.800 seen it. 0:12:51.840 --> 0:12:54.480 I had no idea they had more than two Parent Traps. 0:12:54.880 --> 0:12:56.439 I don't think I've seen the first Parent Trap. 0:12:57.000 --> 0:13:00.000 And the most noticeable reason this movie is still notable 0:13:00.320 --> 0:13:02.520 is because of who it was written by. It was 0:13:02.559 --> 0:13:06.120 written by then first time writer Chris Carter, which of 0:13:06.120 --> 0:13:07.960 course is a recognizable name to many, as he would 0:13:08.000 --> 0:13:10.680 later become the creator of The X Files, one of 0:13:10.679 --> 0:13:11.800 the most popular sci. 0:13:11.600 --> 0:13:13.599 Fi shows in the history of television. 0:13:13.880 --> 0:13:16.600 He also created the show Millennium, which proved how big 0:13:16.640 --> 0:13:18.400 a deal he was for Fox at the time, since 0:13:18.440 --> 0:13:21.280 he was given a month to shoot the pilot and 0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:24.719 in the contract made sure no network notes or interference 0:13:24.800 --> 0:13:27.320 was given during the process, which to get that into 0:13:27.400 --> 0:13:28.480 your contract is insane. 0:13:28.760 --> 0:13:28.960 Yeah. 0:13:29.000 --> 0:13:31.720 After the unprecedented success of the X Files and the 0:13:31.720 --> 0:13:35.200 spinoff movies, Carter semi retired and now he surfs and 0:13:35.280 --> 0:13:37.839 makes multimedia art. He does share a credit on the 0:13:37.840 --> 0:13:41.120 script with someone named Michael Patrick Goodman, and this is 0:13:41.160 --> 0:13:43.000 just one of three credits for Michael. He really only 0:13:43.000 --> 0:13:44.800 worked in Hollywood as a writer for one year. 0:13:45.559 --> 0:13:45.959 Wow. 0:13:46.080 --> 0:13:49.080 Now, one question I do want to ask is have 0:13:49.160 --> 0:13:50.440 you ever been on a military base? 0:13:51.760 --> 0:13:56.239 No? Never, No, I have not. Interesting. 0:13:56.440 --> 0:13:58.760 I didn't know if the Cheetah girls had ever maybe toured, 0:13:58.760 --> 0:14:01.120 did something with the military, or something along those lines. 0:14:01.200 --> 0:14:03.520 We did it, and now I feel shafted. 0:14:06.640 --> 0:14:09.480 So my father is a retired captain in the Navy 0:14:10.080 --> 0:14:13.120 and in Connecticut. He was stationed when he was a 0:14:13.360 --> 0:14:15.680 Navy reserve but a high rank, so he was there 0:14:15.880 --> 0:14:18.280 quite a bit. And when he wasn't at the Pentagon, 0:14:18.840 --> 0:14:22.760 he was at the Groton sub Base in Groton, Connecticut. 0:14:22.840 --> 0:14:27.000 So I grew up getting to tour submarines and running 0:14:27.040 --> 0:14:29.480 around the base. It was really really cool. It was 0:14:29.520 --> 0:14:32.080 a ton of fun. It was just a great place 0:14:32.080 --> 0:14:35.080 to be. There was a bowling alley and I would 0:14:35.120 --> 0:14:37.400 be able to bring friends there and everyone saluting my 0:14:37.480 --> 0:14:39.200 dad everywhere we go, and they're saluting him when he 0:14:39.240 --> 0:14:41.920 comes onto the base and we locked down and see 0:14:41.920 --> 0:14:44.440 all the submarines in the docks, and it was really, 0:14:44.520 --> 0:14:47.960 really really cool. So while I'd never had the life 0:14:47.960 --> 0:14:49.960 of a brat, we didn't have to move around a lot, 0:14:50.040 --> 0:14:52.000 I still had the taste of the military bases. 0:14:52.080 --> 0:14:53.640 Yeah, it was. It was great. 0:14:53.680 --> 0:14:55.920 Like the First Golf War, my father was stationed Signal 0:14:55.920 --> 0:14:58.160 of Sicily, was doing a lot of legal the legal 0:14:58.160 --> 0:15:02.120 aspects for the war in Italy, so it was I 0:15:02.120 --> 0:15:05.400 had a taste of the military. My father loves the military. Wow, 0:15:05.840 --> 0:15:08.480 loved being in the military and retired a captain. But 0:15:09.320 --> 0:15:13.120 being on a base is it's completely enclosed city. 0:15:13.520 --> 0:15:16.720 Okay, okay, So that is one of my questions as 0:15:16.760 --> 0:15:19.400 we're getting into the early parts of the movie I 0:15:19.440 --> 0:15:22.600 know we're going to get there, is that for real, 0:15:22.960 --> 0:15:26.080 they have little arcade areas. 0:15:26.120 --> 0:15:30.200 Absolutely all of ales clubs. 0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:31.840 And you guys just get to run around. 0:15:32.240 --> 0:15:35.720 Yeah, you just got to just run around your. 0:15:35.600 --> 0:15:37.920 Own their own PX so they don't have to they 0:15:37.920 --> 0:15:39.480 can shut the PX is like a store, so you 0:15:39.480 --> 0:15:41.880 can shop and buy everything you need there. There's groceries, 0:15:42.320 --> 0:15:45.600 no need to leave, no completely inclosed city. I mean 0:15:45.600 --> 0:15:47.400 depending on the base obviously, but the at least the 0:15:47.400 --> 0:15:49.720 sub base in Gratten was a completely enclosed city. The 0:15:49.720 --> 0:15:52.720 gate would close behind you and whatever you needed was there. 0:15:53.840 --> 0:15:55.520 We will I think my dad did let me bring 0:15:55.520 --> 0:15:57.160 my bike a couple times. I could ride my bike 0:15:57.200 --> 0:15:59.240 around the base. It was really fun. 0:15:59.640 --> 0:16:03.400 Wow. Yeah, oh man, I got the best of both words. 0:16:03.520 --> 0:16:04.960 Need to tour one of these now? 0:16:05.400 --> 0:16:05.640 Yeah? 0:16:05.920 --> 0:16:08.640 Well I never I never had to move. Yes, I 0:16:08.680 --> 0:16:11.280 got to experience that, but I wasn't. That's a tough 0:16:11.360 --> 0:16:14.160 life where you're a year or two at a base, 0:16:14.240 --> 0:16:16.480 you try to make friends, and you're out in your So. 0:16:16.760 --> 0:16:19.480 My mother in law was like that for a while 0:16:19.560 --> 0:16:22.600 until she came to Orange County and figured out a 0:16:22.600 --> 0:16:24.600 way when she was here in high school to settle 0:16:24.640 --> 0:16:26.600 to be able to stay in high school while her 0:16:26.760 --> 0:16:30.840 her dad got again sent over to Hawaii and she 0:16:30.840 --> 0:16:33.920 she wanted to finish high school here, and she she 0:16:34.000 --> 0:16:35.520 talks about how tough it was. 0:16:35.720 --> 0:16:36.800 Yeah, these are big moves. 0:16:36.800 --> 0:16:38.920 You will find people that are in Texas for a 0:16:39.000 --> 0:16:41.000 year and then the next year, they're in Germany for 0:16:41.000 --> 0:16:43.320 two years, and then you go and it's you're You're 0:16:43.320 --> 0:16:45.960 in Japan all of a sudden, You're all over the place. 0:16:46.400 --> 0:16:50.040 It is a tough life for a kid, but it 0:16:50.120 --> 0:17:01.200 was interesting how they captured that in the movie. Yeah, 0:17:01.320 --> 0:17:03.000 I can't say this right off the bat. I don't 0:17:03.000 --> 0:17:04.480 know if you noticed this, but the Brat Patrol is 0:17:04.520 --> 0:17:06.719 going to have no matter what we watch in the future, 0:17:07.480 --> 0:17:12.440 the worst sound ever the movie is filmed. 0:17:15.440 --> 0:17:17.640 Do you think it's because they filmed on a real 0:17:17.720 --> 0:17:20.760 base then? And it was the flying that I mean, 0:17:20.920 --> 0:17:27.280 it was voiceover, Like I mean in the movie. 0:17:27.000 --> 0:17:30.159 At least, yes, has got to be voiceover for the characters. 0:17:30.200 --> 0:17:32.959 Sometimes they're hidden off scream completely just to make it work. 0:17:33.359 --> 0:17:35.919 And a large portion of the movie just includes planes 0:17:35.960 --> 0:17:38.240 flying by, because when you're at an active military base, 0:17:38.480 --> 0:17:41.240 they're obviously not going to hold their sorties for the 0:17:41.359 --> 0:17:43.560 day so that you can. 0:17:43.359 --> 0:17:44.040 Film a movie. 0:17:44.080 --> 0:17:45.919 It's like, sure, you want to film movie, go ahead, 0:17:45.920 --> 0:17:48.879 but you're gonna have you know, military jets flying over 0:17:48.960 --> 0:17:54.200 you mostly right, right, So yeah, it has to be there, 0:17:54.240 --> 0:17:55.800 but it was hugely noticeable. 0:17:56.200 --> 0:17:58.280 Yes, the evolution of what it's become. 0:17:58.359 --> 0:18:01.400 Now, what was funny that I thought, Okay, sure, you've 0:18:01.440 --> 0:18:04.159 got to do another scene. But what I thought was 0:18:04.160 --> 0:18:06.840 interesting back then, what it seemed like they did is 0:18:06.960 --> 0:18:09.520 if it was just your line that needed to be redone, 0:18:10.000 --> 0:18:13.800 they would just do yours and then keep mine as films. 0:18:13.960 --> 0:18:16.240 And that's when it got really obvious. 0:18:16.400 --> 0:18:18.560
