1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,400
Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome back to movie Mike's movie podcast. I

2
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:04,200
Speaker 1: am your host Movie Mike, joined by my wife and

3
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:05,480
Speaker 1: co host Kelsey. How are you.

4
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:06,120
Speaker 2: I'm good.

5
00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:08,960
Speaker 1: We're back doing our movies of the month for August.

6
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:11,680
Speaker 1: In the movie review, we'll be talking about Sing Sing,

7
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 1: which was a movie that moved us both yes, and

8
00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:16,560
Speaker 1: then in the trailer Park, we'll be talking about a

9
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:18,960
Speaker 1: movie called Y two K that is all about if

10
00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 1: Y two K actually happened and all the technology went down.

11
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 1: Were you a little bit too young for Y two K?

12
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:24,360
Speaker 2: No?

13
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:27,040
Speaker 1: I remember you remember the craze of people thinking that

14
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:29,680
Speaker 1: once they went to two thousand that all the computers

15
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 1: were going to shut down.

16
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, because I was almost six, because my birthday is

17
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 2: right after the New Year, so it was five going

18
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 2: on six. I feel like I remember that.

19
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 1: Did you and your mom do anything to prepare?

20
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,839
Speaker 2: I feel like my mom probably did. I remember the craze,

21
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:44,559
Speaker 2: but she wasn't like talking to me about it.

22
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 1: I don't think we did anything because we didn't have

23
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:50,160
Speaker 1: anything technological in our house that we were like worried about.

24
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 1: I guess we were more worried about bank shutting down.

25
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 2: I was gonna say I feel like the biggest concern

26
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 2: was banks. My mom worked at a bank for a

27
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 2: long time, so I feel like she was relatively confident

28
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 2: that the banks wouldn't just completely crap out.

29
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,720
Speaker 1: But that's what that movie's about. What if it did happen? Well,

30
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 1: thank you for this.

31
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 2: Was actually kind of like when the Delta system shut down.

32
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:08,920
Speaker 1: It's true, it's like Southwest right now, still running on

33
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 1: a rolodex.

34
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was like, Actually, what why two K would

35
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 2: have been because their system shut down and they're like, well,

36
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 2: can't get you anywhere.

37
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,319
Speaker 1: So we'll get into that. Thank you for listening, Thank

38
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,839
Speaker 1: you for being subscribed, Chat to the Monday Morning Movie Crew,

39
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:22,959
Speaker 1: and now let's talk movies.

40
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 3: In a world where everyone and their mother has a podcast,

41
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,959
Speaker 3: one man stands to infiltrate the ears of listeners like

42
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 3: never before in a movie podcast. A man with so

43
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 3: much movie knowledge, he's basically like a walking IMTB with glasses.

44
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:46,960
Speaker 3: From the Nashville Podcast Network. This is Movie Mikes Movie Podcast.

45
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: Movies of the Month for August. I feel like it's

46
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 1: been one of the best months of the summer.

47
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 2: Interesting, you don't what was your favorite month? July?

48
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 1: Oh, July, I think was my least favorite.

49
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 2: July had Twisters and Deadpool.

50
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that was two and fly Me to the Moon.

51
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 1: I feel like there's so many more in August. I'm

52
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:04,800
Speaker 1: looking at my list here and there's like eight movies.

53
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 2: Interesting, that's a hot take.

54
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 1: I thought August was way stronger, which August is usually

55
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 1: the decline of the summer blockbuster season. But I felt

56
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 1: like there were more hidden gems. I have more floors

57
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 1: in August than I did for July.

58
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 2: I don't agree with that. But the last time I

59
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:20,639
Speaker 2: told you that your take was stupid, someone on the

60
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,239
Speaker 2: internet called me a not nice name.

61
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,079
Speaker 1: Is it because you love Twisters so much that we've

62
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: now seen twice? Possibly we'll see first third time in theaters.

63
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:30,639
Speaker 1: We have a code now to watch it at home,

64
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:33,239
Speaker 1: thanks to everybody at Universal who send us awesome box

65
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 1: if you didn't watch that on TikTok.

66
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,000
Speaker 2: The greatest package we've ever received.

67
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,640
Speaker 1: But is it because you loved that movie so much?

68
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 3: Now?

69
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 2: There was just always something to see. It was like

70
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,079
Speaker 2: the first weekend we saw just pick well me for

71
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 2: and there was fly Me to the Moon, and there's Twisters.

72
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 2: Then there was Deadpool and Twisters again, like there was

73
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 2: great stuff in July. There was always something. I feel

74
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 2: like this month we kind of had to be like, Okay,

75
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 2: what's coming out this week? What are we going to see?

76
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,079
Speaker 1: And I think it's because we had lower expectations going

77
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 1: into the movies this month that I felt like, oh,

78
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 1: this is a really solid month and more. Before we

79
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: get into our favorite and our least favorite, I'll go

80
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 1: through all the movies we saw, and we did see

81
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 1: some movies apart. You saw one without me, I saw

82
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: one without you.

83
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:13,359
Speaker 2: This is correct, suisfactual.

84
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:15,639
Speaker 1: So going through the list, Trap which you didn't see

85
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,080
Speaker 1: with me, the Instigator, which was an at home one,

86
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: Dedie Gunner, which was also I watched that one at home.

87
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:23,920
Speaker 1: I had a screener for that alien Romulus, which you

88
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: didn't see with me, Sing Sing, and then we closed

89
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 1: it out with Blink twice. I feel like those all

90
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: together is a solid month.

91
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 2: And then I saw it ends with us true.

92
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 1: I think that's better for me.

93
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 2: Okay, I still disagree, but.

94
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: We'll get into our best and the worst. You kick

95
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 1: it off. What was the best thing out of all

96
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: these for August?

97
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go one that surprised me, Blink twice.

98
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 1: I was saying that I feel like this is a

99
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: movie people are either going to love or hate.

100
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 2: TikTok is a buzz.

101
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 1: It's right, it's kind of pull our opposites.

102
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 2: I think any movie, if you are concerned that you're

103
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 2: not gonna like it, you need to watch the trailer.

104
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 2: Were trigger warnings even the trailer, Like I didn't watch

105
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 2: the trailer thinking this is gonna be funny, like you

106
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 2: know that it's gonna be kind of like a creepy

107
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 2: psychological thriller. Reviews compared it to Get Out Before and

108
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:16,719
Speaker 2: people are like, what did I just watch? This was terrible?

109
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 2: There were no warnings, like no, there was a literal

110
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:20,919
Speaker 2: full screen warning before the movie.

111
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 1: That leads me to believe there is still a select

112
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: group of people that would just go watch a movie

113
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 1: based on the A List star, based on the lead.

114
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 2: Yeah. The lady in the TikTok was like, I just

115
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 2: wanted to watch Channing Tatum. It's like okay, which is.

116
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 1: A bizarre way to go into a movie just because

117
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 1: Channing Tatum, who you probably know from Magic Mic and

118
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 1: maybe haven't seen a Channing Tatum movie since or like

119
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 1: twenty two Jump Street twenty one, Jump Street, Step Up,

120
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,600
Speaker 1: and you think, oh, yeah, that movie, you forgot.

121
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 2: My favorite movie all the time.

122
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 1: I feel like he's had such an evolution as an actor,

123
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 1: primarily being in the rom coms. Then he kind of

124
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: shifted into being like the action star, which never really

125
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,800
Speaker 1: kicked off. He kind of transitioned into being the comedic star,

126
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,279
Speaker 1: which I think was kind of a juxtaposition of you

127
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,360
Speaker 1: see him and you don't think comedy, but then he's

128
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,520
Speaker 1: really good at comedy at comedy, and now I feel

129
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 1: like he's just making really good movies, having one of

130
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: the best years out of any actor.

131
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 2: He's having a summer.

132
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 1: So it's weird for me to see somebody go into

133
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: just watching a movie and thinking it's gonna be everything

134
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 1: he's done maybe ten fifteen years ago.

135
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. I think that, Yeah, you just need

136
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,360
Speaker 2: to watch the trailer, like if you're concerned at all

137
00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 2: about the movie. I also think it was raded R,

138
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:28,359
Speaker 2: wasn't it?

139
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 1: It was raded R.

140
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 2: Okay, that tells you all you need, That tells you

141
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 2: all you need to know. And yeah, it was disturbing.

142
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 2: That's why there were trigger warnings.

143
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:36,520
Speaker 1: And if you go into the movie, you see the

144
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 1: trigger warning and think, I don't know if this is

145
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,480
Speaker 1: for me. You can go get a refund. I think

146
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,479
Speaker 1: a lot of people don't know that. I think it's

147
00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 1: within the first twenty to thirty minutes, probably different based

148
00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 1: on the theater you go to. You can still get

149
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:49,159
Speaker 1: a refund.

150
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 2: Should have done that when I took my grandma to

151
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:51,720
Speaker 2: Talladay Nights.

152
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 1: So if you see that at the beginning and think, huh,

153
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm in for that. I also

154
00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,600
Speaker 1: feel like that was a little bit rage bait. What

155
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 1: were the other things you enjoyed about this one that

156
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 1: made it your favorite?

157
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 2: I thought the acting was really good. It was a

158
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:09,599
Speaker 2: great cast. Had Adria Ariona from Hitman. She's also having

159
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,840
Speaker 2: a great summer. Her and Glenn pal both just movie

160
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 2: after movie.

161
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 1: You knew Hollywood creeping in there.

162
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,599
Speaker 2: Zoe Kravitz was a great director. I feel like the

163
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 2: storytelling was just really good, and it wasn't It wasn't

164
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 2: creepy the whole time. It's kind of a slow burn,

165
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,559
Speaker 2: which I enjoyed because, like I do get scared easily.

166
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 2: I've mentioned that I didn't want to watch a psychological

167
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 2: thriller and have my blood pressure up the whole time.

168
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 2: But the first hour kind of built wasn't too scary.

169
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,599
Speaker 1: This was one I was worried for you in the

170
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 1: sense that you don't like anything scary whatsoever. He suspense,

171
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 1: and I thought it was going to be a little

172
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: bit too on that more in the get out Us

173
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 1: Jordan Peele type horror that you were not going to

174
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,920
Speaker 1: be a fan of. But once we got going into it,

175
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: I think this is something you can handle. It's no

176
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:55,359
Speaker 1: crazier than I would say any kind of murdered Netflix

177
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,160
Speaker 1: show or anything like that. And I feel like as

178
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:02,480
Speaker 1: an audience, as Americans, we're getting really desensitized to anything

179
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: that's overly graphic. Yeah, which is good and bad. I

180
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 1: guess to think, like, oh, we're just so used to

181
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 1: blood and guts and all these things happening on TV

182
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 1: shows and movies that were kind of past that.

183
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 2: I just thought it was really good overall. I enjoyed it.

184
00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:20,360
Speaker 2: It kept me kind of wondering what was happening. It

185
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 2: was like I read a lot of thrillers and I

186
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 2: was just talking to you about this because I read

187
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 2: one that was called it mid But I was like,

188
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 2: I read so many thrillers that like reading a thriller,

189
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 2: it's kind of hard to shock me these days, like

190
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 2: I can see the plot twist coming, but a movie

191
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 2: like that, I was like, oh, I didn't see that coming.

192
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, which is also rare for me. I started to

193
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 1: I just do this, I start calling things, I pick

194
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 1: up on little thing, just because I know it's that

195
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 1: type of movie. But there were some moments that were

196
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 1: still surprises even to me. So I think Zoe Kravitz

197
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 1: did an amazing job making their first movie.

198
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:50,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, So that was my best of the month.

199
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 1: My best of the month comes down to two movies,

200
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 1: Alien Romulus and De Dy, Which Alien Romulus was the

201
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: most surprising to me because, like we've been talking about

202
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 1: this month, I went in with pretty low expectations and

203
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: ended up really enjoying it, even though I'm not the

204
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 1: biggest fan of the Alien franchise as a whole. But

205
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 1: I think when it comes down to my favorite of

206
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: the month, it goes to DD just because I haven't

207
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 1: seen a movie take place in that time period done

208
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 1: that well, to just so good, like two thousand and nine.

209
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 1: Two thousand and eight to two thousand and nine is

210
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 1: like a golden year for me, and seeing all those

211
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 1: things that Dedie went through and realizing that also the

212
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 1: director is like my age. So I feel like that

213
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 1: movie was made for somebody exactly my age, also somebody

214
00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 1: who their parents migrated from another country. And it was

215
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 1: also just I won't call it a straight on comedy.

216
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:44,800
Speaker 1: There were some funny parts, but it was kind of

217
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,560
Speaker 1: a dramedy. Yeah, where I wouldn't tell somebody go watch

218
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 1: this movie because it's hilarious, but there are funny parts

219
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,679
Speaker 1: in it. And I feel like that movie is relatable

220
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: to anybody who's ever been a teenager. That's really the

221
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 1: prerequisite for it.

222
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 2: I mean it captured similar to what we talked about,

223
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,520
Speaker 2: like eighth grade. It captured which you probably related to

224
00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 2: this one more because it was a teenage boy, whereas

225
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 2: I already in eighth grade. But it was like it

226
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 2: captures the essence of that awkward time of being like

227
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 2: thirteen fourteen, eighth grade into ninth grade and my trauma.

228
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 2: But I still haven't forgiven my parents for is that

229
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:18,960
Speaker 2: they moved me in the middle of eighth grade.

230
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 1: Eighth grade was my worst year ever.

231
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 2: They moved me in the middle of it, which was

232
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 2: incredibly rude and difficult. But I did meet my best friend,

233
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 2: who is still my best friend this day on the

234
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:30,680
Speaker 2: bus and we were like the two weird kids, and

235
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 2: we've been best friends ever since, so that was the

236
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 2: only good thing. But that was some trauma.

237
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 1: I think I lost any friend I made from six

238
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 1: to seventh grade in eighth grade.

239
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 2: Eighth grade is brutal.

240
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: It is so and I don't even know why. It

241
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:45,720
Speaker 1: just got to a point where I just stopped talking

242
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 1: to people because they stopped talking to me.

243
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,320
Speaker 2: Everyone thinks that they're better, and then you get to

244
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:51,959
Speaker 2: ninth grade and it's like everyone who was terrible to

245
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 2: you in eighth grade is like, hey, happy first day

246
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 2: of school, and you're like.

247
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:56,959
Speaker 1: Me, I still have the blade of my back from

248
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 1: last year.

249
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 2: You're like, you've literally spit on me, Like why are

250
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 2: you being nice to me?

251
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 1: Yeah. I remember eating lunch alone a lot in eighth grade,

252
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 1: making friends with people I did not want to be

253
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,079
Speaker 1: associated with, just because they'd be the only ones who

254
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 1: would sit around me at lunch, and I just remember

255
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 1: that time being awful.

256
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 2: I also apparently got a lot of hate because I

257
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:18,960
Speaker 2: came in and I was really smart and I would

258
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 2: like raise my hand and answer questions, and I didn't know.

259
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 2: I didn't really fully realize that being smart would put

260
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 2: a target on your back. But sucks to be all

261
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 2: of them because I was smarter than all of them,

262
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:29,679
Speaker 2: and I did graduate third in my class in high school.

263
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,320
Speaker 1: So that's a fun thing to talk about. What were

264
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,679
Speaker 1: the things that put a target on your back in

265
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,080
Speaker 1: let's just say seventh and eighth grade? You said that one.

266
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 1: For me, one of the big ones was just me

267
00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,520
Speaker 1: wearing all black all the time, which people associated me

268
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 1: with being emo coth and I would get made fun

269
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,600
Speaker 1: of that all the time because I wore all black.

270
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:48,240
Speaker 2: Having a hard to pronounce last name.

271
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I.

272
00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 2: Don't know why that just makes you a.

273
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,880
Speaker 1: Target because would they make fun of it.

274
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 2: Yeah. I was telling my younger brother the story the

275
00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,160
Speaker 2: other day, and one time somebody made fun of my

276
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 2: last name, and I was like, sorry, take it up

277
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 2: with my dad, dad and shut them up. Ooh, that

278
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:04,319
Speaker 2: was a good cum.

279
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,199
Speaker 1: That's always like the una reverse card.

280
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, that like being smart, having a hard to pronounce

281
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 2: last name, and then weirdly like I had a hot mom,

282
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 2: which makes it really difficult to be a teenage.

283
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 1: Girl from the teenage boy or the teenage girl.

284
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 2: The teenage boy, like, my mom would come have lunch

285
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,080
Speaker 2: with me at school and everyone be like, oh man,

286
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 2: who's that. I like, it's my mom. Wait. I could

287
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,560
Speaker 2: tell they found my mom more attractive than they found me.

288
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 2: So that was all so difficult.

289
00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:33,720
Speaker 1: That's quite the top three there.

290
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 2: It was pretty rough for me.

291
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:37,439
Speaker 1: It was an all black clothing goes hand in hands

292
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 1: being into punk rock. Number two was being chunky. That's

293
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 1: just an easy target. Number three, I guess being Mexican,

294
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,679
Speaker 1: just because people expect things out of me or assume

295
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:47,839
Speaker 1: stereotypes about me.

296
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:49,800
Speaker 2: I guess my top was above all those was just

297
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 2: being the new kid, new kid, smart, hard pronounced last name.

298
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 2: I wore glasses. People mocked that.

299
00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:58,960
Speaker 1: Hardy never got made fun of for my glasses.

300
00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:02,960
Speaker 2: I'm sorry. Yeah, I was the new kid a lot.

301
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:04,200
Speaker 2: That was really difficult.

302
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 1: I was the quiet kid, and I hated it.

303
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:10,000
Speaker 2: I was the new kid often. I think I changed

304
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 2: schools like nine times throughout the course of K through twelve.

305
00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's rough, all right. Now, they were through all

306
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:16,240
Speaker 1: of our trauma.

307
00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:18,520
Speaker 2: Now that we're through Kelsey's childhood trauma, I thank you

308
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 2: for joining if anyone is a psychologist listening, Please let

309
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 2: me know what's wrong with me.

310
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 1: But there you godd was my best. Now getting into

311
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,679
Speaker 1: our worst. What was the worst thing you saw in August?

312
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 2: Am I going the opposite ento the Spectrum, also done

313
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 2: by one of Taylor Shift's best friends. It ends with Us, which.

314
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 1: You love book adaptations.

315
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 2: I hated that book. I am not a Colleen Hoover fan.

316
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:40,839
Speaker 2: I'm so sorry to anyone. I am not trying to

317
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 2: yuck your yum. If Colleen Hoover is what gets you

318
00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:45,720
Speaker 2: into reading, I'm all for that. Read what makes you happy.

319
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,280
Speaker 2: I just there were so many things that I didn't

320
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 2: like about the book, and then going into the movie,

321
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,920
Speaker 2: I had very low expectations. So the movie was fine.

322
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 2: I didn't hate it, it just was the not my worst,

323
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:01,319
Speaker 2: my least favorite. The wardrobe was terrible. That was so distracting.

324
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 2: The clothes were awful, Like I don't know how you

325
00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 2: make it like lively look bad, but they did.

326
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,400
Speaker 1: People think that doesn't matter. That matters a lot to me.

327
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:08,960
Speaker 1: And you can tell the when it's bad. Sometimes you

328
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 1: can't always tell when it's good, but when it's bad,

329
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:12,440
Speaker 1: you know that it's bad.

330
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 2: It was like, when they started filming, photos were getting

331
00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 2: leaked and everyone's like, maybe this is to throw us off. No,

332
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:19,600
Speaker 2: those were her outfits. I'm like, was this sponsored by Carhart?

333
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 2: That's truly Jenny Slay was great in it.

334
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 1: I love her, great comedian.

335
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just didn't. That was one of those that

336
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,840
Speaker 2: I was like, this is gonna be h and I'll

337
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,839
Speaker 2: I'll give a trigger warning if you It does deal

338
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 2: with some heavy topics, so if you haven't seen it,

339
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:36,400
Speaker 2: you haven't read the book. And that one didn't have

340
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:39,199
Speaker 2: a trigger warning, So I think that was also people's

341
00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,080
Speaker 2: issue with it, where it's like Blink twice had one,

342
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 2: it ends with us didn't. And I did kind of

343
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,559
Speaker 2: market it a little bit as a rom com, which

344
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:49,840
Speaker 2: a rom comment is not, so I think the marketing

345
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 2: went astray.

346
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,280
Speaker 1: There's a lot there, So probably only the people who

347
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,160
Speaker 1: either watched the trailer or read the book kind of

348
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 1: knew that was coming.

349
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 2: And I don't even feel like it was that much

350
00:13:57,800 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 2: in the trailer.

351
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 1: Oh really Yeah, I don't feel like it was really

352
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 1: so kind of with the Chanting Tatum case, maybe some

353
00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,760
Speaker 1: people were just going to watch it because Blake Lively

354
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:06,199
Speaker 1: was in it.

355
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I there's a lot of like hate surrounding

356
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,200
Speaker 2: Lively on the internet, and I mean everyone says things

357
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,280
Speaker 2: and interviews people like digging up interviews from like two

358
00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:18,199
Speaker 2: thousand and four, everyone stunder said something. But I the

359
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 2: most like statement she was like, grab your girls, where

360
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 2: your florals go see it. And I was like, there's

361
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 2: a lot more to this movie than your girlfriends and

362
00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 2: your florals.

363
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:28,680
Speaker 1: I could see that. I saw that more in the

364
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 1: marketing of just marketing towards the female demographic, like kind

365
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 1: of like you said, like a outing movie.

366
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I did go see it with some friends,

367
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 2: but one of them had read the book and the

368
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 2: other she was like, I don't care, you can tell

369
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 2: me what happens. So yeah, you had no interest in

370
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 2: seeing them.

371
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 1: Now, how do you feel about Blake Lively as an

372
00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:50,320
Speaker 1: A list actor? Because for me, I don't feel like

373
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 1: she has that one defining role in film. Course she's

374
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 1: gossip girl. I think that's primarily where she became a star.

375
00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 1: But as far as when it comes to movies, I

376
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 1: like her celebrity almost is bigger than what she has

377
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 1: done in movies.

378
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,280
Speaker 2: I would agree with that. Yeah, I feel like she's

379
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:11,359
Speaker 2: an obviously gossip girl, but then just like being a celebrity,

380
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:15,640
Speaker 2: being a fashion icon, having businesses, friends.

381
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 1: With Taylor Swift married to Ryan Reynolds.

382
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think a simple favor would probably be one

383
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 2: of her.

384
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, I enjoyed that one bigger ones she.

385
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,560
Speaker 2: Did Sister to the Traveling Pants. She was so young

386
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 2: when she did that, but that's like the first thing

387
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,480
Speaker 2: I ever saw her. And then yeah, she since Mother's

388
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,480
Speaker 2: Age of Adeline was a really good movie.

389
00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:35,920
Speaker 1: Because I feel like her movies do pretty well.

390
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 2: But yeah, she is, in my opinion, an A list celebrity,

391
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 2: not an A list actress.

392
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 1: For me, my worst of August I think it comes

393
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: down to it at home one. I had great experiences.

394
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 1: Out of all the movies we saw in theaters, didn't

395
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,680
Speaker 1: rate anything below a three, which is wild. Usually in

396
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 1: the summer, there's one we want to walk out of.

397
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 1: Hasn't happened yet.

398
00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,000
Speaker 2: Because there wasn't straight this summer.

399
00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 1: It could possibly happened in September, which is often referred

400
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 1: to as dump months, where studios are just throwing out

401
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 1: titles out there to see what happens. But as far

402
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 1: as August, nothing below a zero and that was traping

403
00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 1: below a three, nothing below a three. I've never rated

404
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: anything at zero you look at three. Trap was the three,

405
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 1: but I think I had to go with an at

406
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:21,160
Speaker 1: home one. The Instigator was probably the worst movie I

407
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 1: saw an August New movie, that is, and that's just

408
00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 1: because I feel like Casey Affleck and Matt Damon were

409
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 1: kind of wasted in that, which Apple is historic with

410
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,400
Speaker 1: getting these movies with big actors and they don't know

411
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 1: what to do with them.

412
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 2: They keep doing this, and I'm like, Apple, stick to

413
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 2: the TV series because you make some great TV series,

414
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,520
Speaker 2: market those like you market your movies because your TV

415
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 2: shows have a better plot line than your movies.

416
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 1: They have a great show like Presumed Innocent and the

417
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:50,120
Speaker 1: actors do maybe one or two interviews and it's the

418
00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 1: best show probably. I'd say it's up there for the

419
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:53,280
Speaker 1: best of the year.

420
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 2: Or the funny one with Rose Burn and Seth Rogen Platonic.

421
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 1: Yes, But yet they put out movies like this and

422
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:02,360
Speaker 1: they have them doing the rounds and they are pretty

423
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:05,520
Speaker 1: subpart I was looking recently at the top ten movies

424
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:07,920
Speaker 1: on Apple right now, and it's like, man, these were

425
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,800
Speaker 1: such waste of time movies. They just keep giving movies

426
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:11,720
Speaker 1: to Mark Wahlberg.

427
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:12,399
Speaker 2: They do.

428
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 1: They don't really have an identity when it comes to

429
00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:18,920
Speaker 1: what kind of movies they make. They always just feel

430
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: like these action, family friendly movies that have no grit

431
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 1: to them whatsoever, and they're very bland. And that is

432
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 1: how I felt about The Instigator, where there was enough

433
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,399
Speaker 1: in this movie to keep my attention to want to

434
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 1: finish it, but nothing really happened by the end of it.

435
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,119
Speaker 1: It was just like, Okay, what was the point of

436
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 1: all that? And the acting was just flat out terrible

437
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:46,359
Speaker 1: to really well established actors OSCAR nominated and OSCAR winners

438
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:50,159
Speaker 1: in this and we had Jack Harlowe barely giving a

439
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:53,040
Speaker 1: crab in this movie. I forgot he's really trying to

440
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:54,639
Speaker 1: make it as an actor, and I feel like this

441
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 1: was a bigger role for him, but I just don't

442
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:58,360
Speaker 1: really think he has that. Also, don't feel like he's

443
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,440
Speaker 1: that famous anymore. Had like that moment for a little while.

444
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:03,240
Speaker 2: I feel like it's a thirty year old I don't

445
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,399
Speaker 2: enjoy Jack Harlow the way gen Z does. Is that

446
00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 2: where his fan base is, Yeah, my brothers enjoy his music.

447
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 1: I just couldn't get into it.

448
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 2: And I love a trend. But yeah, I can't get

449
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:16,160
Speaker 2: into Jack Carlow.

450
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:17,920
Speaker 1: And I can't really get into him as an actor,

451
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,800
Speaker 1: so that one was a bit of a leatdown. But

452
00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:22,639
Speaker 1: I'm glad that we didn't see that one in theaters

453
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 1: because that would have been a possible walk out of

454
00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:27,639
Speaker 1: the theater moment. We always do a TV show, What

455
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:29,359
Speaker 1: was the best TV show for you? In August?

456
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,439
Speaker 2: I'm tuned back into the Real Housewives of Orange County

457
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 2: this season?

458
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,520
Speaker 1: What happens in that I don't watch any of these

459
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 1: except for the Salt Lake City one for a little bit.

460
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:40,400
Speaker 2: It's just them all arguing with each other. You would

461
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 2: hate it.

462
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't do the shows where they just yell

463
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 1: at each other and argue in over little things.

464
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:46,639
Speaker 2: But I think Orange County has been on for like

465
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 2: eighteen years now.

466
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 1: Oh, Beverly Hills are the OG?

467
00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:51,160
Speaker 2: Right? No, OC is the OG?

468
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:52,919
Speaker 1: Oh? Okay, that's how much I know.

469
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, OC is the OG? Yeah, eighteen seasons.

470
00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,480
Speaker 1: I think what is the plot point in it? Right now?

471
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:04,000
Speaker 2: Two f are feuding because one of them is a

472
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:06,680
Speaker 2: realtor and she rented a house to her friend and

473
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 2: then her friend didn't make payments. And then you also

474
00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:13,160
Speaker 2: have two cast members who are dating the same man.

475
00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:16,959
Speaker 2: Well one of them dated him previously and then another

476
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 2: one is dating him now and claims that he's like

477
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 2: the love of her life. She also claimed that he

478
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,960
Speaker 2: didn't want to be back on reality television, so when

479
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:24,920
Speaker 2: she was invited back on the show, that he said

480
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:28,880
Speaker 2: he would pay her salary, which I don't believe. So, yeah,

481
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:29,159
Speaker 2: that's the.

482
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,399
Speaker 1: Drama, which is the one we watched where she was

483
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 1: talking about she has glam everywhere.

484
00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:35,560
Speaker 2: That's Salt Lake City. I have Glama every day. I

485
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,120
Speaker 2: have glamed Monaco. Yeah, that's Lisa Barlowe who we saw

486
00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 2: at them all one time here. Oh y in head

487
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:40,959
Speaker 2: to Toe Gucci.

488
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember that. He seemed like he'd be on

489
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 1: a reality show.

490
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 2: I feel like that's all I'm watching right now. I

491
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 2: was finishing The Resident which went downhill, and I was like,

492
00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:53,119
Speaker 2: see why this got canceled that there's a lot of

493
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:56,479
Speaker 2: good stuff coming out in September. I am ready to

494
00:19:56,520 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 2: be glued to the Better the Couch. There's tell Me

495
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 2: Lie is season two on Hulu. They're selling Sunset season.

496
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:06,640
Speaker 1: They don't do any sales anymore.

497
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:10,200
Speaker 2: There's The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives coming to Hulu,

498
00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,960
Speaker 2: and then there's a show called English Teacher coming to Fax.

499
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 2: So it's funny. It's a lot of great stuff come

500
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:16,439
Speaker 2: out for me.

501
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,439
Speaker 1: The show I just started watching that I'm the most

502
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 1: interested in is called Kevin kin f Himself. It's on Netflix,

503
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,240
Speaker 1: but I think it's originally an AMC show and it

504
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:28,840
Speaker 1: has Annie Murphy from Shit's Creek. The thing I like

505
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 1: about the show is I'm always looking for some show

506
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,240
Speaker 1: that does things differently. I just kind of itch for

507
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:37,520
Speaker 1: somebody breaking the format. And the way I was turned

508
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:39,960
Speaker 1: onto this show was TikTok. Somebody made a video about

509
00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:41,440
Speaker 1: it and I was like, oh, I've seen and heard

510
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:43,359
Speaker 1: of that show, but I've never actually sat down and

511
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:47,159
Speaker 1: watched an episode. And what it is is for I

512
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,679
Speaker 1: would say maybe fifty percent of the episode. It is

513
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:53,439
Speaker 1: a cheesy two thousand sitcom, like a single camera, very bright,

514
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:57,720
Speaker 1: colorful laugh track, and then it will transition into her

515
00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 1: perspective and it is a very dark, very sad drama

516
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 1: because the husband sees their marriage as one way, like

517
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 1: it would be like in a King of Queens. Everybody

518
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 1: loves Raymond type situation because like the family lives right

519
00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:14,439
Speaker 1: next door to them, but she is so miserable in

520
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 1: this that it almost has more of like a breaking

521
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:20,600
Speaker 1: bad feel to it. So for me, I like it

522
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 1: because I also enjoy those very cheesy two thousand sitcoms,

523
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:25,960
Speaker 1: like according to Jim.

524
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 2: See, and I would like the dark, miserable drama of it.

525
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 1: And I just like that it keeps going back and

526
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 1: forth between the two because it kind of keeps my

527
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:35,680
Speaker 1: attention of like, oh, it's gonna switch over and then

528
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 1: you'll see it differently. But I don't know if you

529
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,640
Speaker 1: would fully be into it because of that cheesiness of

530
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:42,879
Speaker 1: the sitcom. You walked in on me watching and you're like,

531
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:43,679
Speaker 1: what is this.

532
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:45,439
Speaker 2: The few times I've been in the room, it's been

533
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 2: the cheesy sitcom, and I'm like, I can't do this.

534
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:49,639
Speaker 1: So it's almost like if they just cut the parts

535
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,119
Speaker 1: of the drama which would stand on its own, it

536
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 1: would be an entirely different show, but it would lose

537
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:56,400
Speaker 1: that novel aspect of it. This has been a month

538
00:21:56,440 --> 00:21:58,639
Speaker 1: where I haven't really had my go to show alone,

539
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 1: which you usually have shows we watch together and shows

540
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:03,640
Speaker 1: we watch a part, and I don't really have one

541
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:05,479
Speaker 1: that I'm watching alone right now, but I think this

542
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,600
Speaker 1: one will probably be my go to. There are two

543
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 1: seasons of it. It started in twenty twenty two, so I

544
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 1: haven't even looked up if they're like canceled or anything,

545
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 1: just because I don't want it ruined for me yet.

546
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 2: There you go. I love that you found something.

547
00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:18,880
Speaker 1: What about your book of the month?

548
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 2: I have two this month, very similar vibe. They are

549
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:27,160
Speaker 2: both about kids go missing in the woods, multiple perspective,

550
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,359
Speaker 2: shifting timelines, but two like very different stories. One is

551
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:32,680
Speaker 2: All the Colors of the Dark by Chris Whitaker, which

552
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 2: I gave five stars. I think it's gonna be on

553
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 2: like every bestseller list. Flew through that one really good.

554
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,399
Speaker 2: And then the other is The God of the Woods

555
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,480
Speaker 2: by Liz Moore, which I think I gave four point

556
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 2: seven to five out of five. So there are both

557
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,439
Speaker 2: almost like perfect reads in my opinion, very good. All

558
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 2: the Colors of the Dark I enjoyed reading on my

559
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 2: kindle because it was like six hundred pages, so it

560
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,920
Speaker 2: was easy to just like read a couple chapters. God

561
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,640
Speaker 2: of the Woods I read in print, also short chapters

562
00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:58,960
Speaker 2: and long, but I read it in like three nights

563
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 2: with my trusty book life.

564
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:01,880
Speaker 1: Have you ever readed a book of zero?

565
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 2: So funny you ask my book club book this month.

566
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:07,919
Speaker 2: I gave it a point five, and I gave it

567
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:10,920
Speaker 2: a point five because the author did write words on

568
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 2: a page. And I can imagine that publishing a book

569
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 2: is difficult. And I'm not going to slander books. But

570
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,240
Speaker 2: if you haven't read The Midnight Feast by Lucy Foley,

571
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:23,159
Speaker 2: save yourself. At the time, it was I have no words.

572
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 2: That was how bad it was.

573
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever reated a movie a zero.

574
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,200
Speaker 1: I think point five if we have left a movie.

575
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:31,960
Speaker 1: I just haven't given it a rating because I was like,

576
00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:33,959
Speaker 1: it didn't complete. But that's how bad it is.

577
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:37,160
Speaker 2: She wrote words on a page, turned it in about

578
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 2: all I can give it credit for. It was I

579
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 2: think the worst book that we've read in book club.

580
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,040
Speaker 2: And the worst part is I recommended it because I

581
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,000
Speaker 2: was like new thriller. But yeah, that that was a

582
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 2: bad one.

583
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:48,800
Speaker 1: Since you had a book that you did not enjoy,

584
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,560
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do a movie I don't recommend that. I

585
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,320
Speaker 1: came out earlier this year at Night Swim. I thought

586
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:57,000
Speaker 1: it was gonna be a lot scarier than it was,

587
00:23:57,680 --> 00:23:59,720
Speaker 1: and it threw me into a fit of rage. In

588
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 1: some times, Hulu adds new movies and I'm like, ah,

589
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 1: I didn't watch this one in theaters. I gotta watch

590
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:05,840
Speaker 1: it now. Don't waste your time on that one. I

591
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 1: would probably rate that one.

592
00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:07,520
Speaker 3: Eh.

593
00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 1: I guess I gave it a two point five just

594
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 1: because thirty minutes were good and then the rest of

595
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:13,480
Speaker 1: the movie was trash.

596
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 2: In two point five, that's still a fifty percent.

597
00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: I feel like if a movie like that was a movie,

598
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,399
Speaker 1: I wasn't even going to finish. But it got to

599
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 1: a point that I was like, I need to see

600
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:24,159
Speaker 1: how this is. Sometimes you just have to know just

601
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 1: for the sake of it, and I was disappointed by it.

602
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:27,680
Speaker 1: So two point five.

603
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:29,639
Speaker 2: Oh, that's another thing we watched. You watch the Era's

604
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:30,400
Speaker 2: tour for the first one.

605
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, I'm glad that I watched it. I feel

606
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,399
Speaker 1: like I went to the concert without actually going to

607
00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:39,120
Speaker 1: the concert. The production on just the Concert Special alone

608
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:41,560
Speaker 1: was top tier, and it made me feel like I

609
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 1: was there.

610
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,200
Speaker 2: And that could also because I performed half of it

611
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:44,560
Speaker 2: for you.

612
00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 1: Could be the added dancer in the living room. But

613
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 1: I was surprised at how much I felt all the

614
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 1: sentiments from the reviews of you and everybody who went

615
00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 1: to that tour saying how amazing it is, then how

616
00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,160
Speaker 1: great of a performer she is. That that actually came

617
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 1: through on Disney Plus because we did split it up

618
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 1: over three nights, because it is three hours long.

619
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:07,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, because every night you really I'm tired.

620
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 1: Yeah.

621
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,199
Speaker 2: It's also just it wasn't me. It's think to not

622
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 2: watch it. Let's make that clear.

623
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:13,600
Speaker 1: So I would say it's hard. It would be hard

624
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:15,440
Speaker 1: for me to sit down and watch it all in

625
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 1: when sitting like a three hour movie.

626
00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:18,640
Speaker 2: It was fun in theaters, but it would.

627
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:21,119
Speaker 1: Be yeah, probably different in theaters and way different if

628
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,560
Speaker 1: you're actually there. So the fact that we broke it

629
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 1: up over three days and like our increments, I still

630
00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 1: enjoyed every single era in that and it made me

631
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 1: appreciate her more as an artist. It also made me

632
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:34,440
Speaker 1: like some of the music more that I didn't know.

633
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:36,880
Speaker 1: I like, like songs out the Lover album m hmm,

634
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 1: which probably spent the least amount of time with Now,

635
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 1: I like a lot of those songs a lot more

636
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:42,439
Speaker 1: seeing them perform like that.

637
00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:45,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I slit see. I went to the tour. That's

638
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 2: not in my life aside from marrying you, but close

639
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 2: close sucon. I went to see it in theaters. I

640
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 2: watched it with my best friend New York over Christmas,

641
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 2: watched half of it with my best friend in Denver

642
00:25:58,119 --> 00:25:59,879
Speaker 2: earlier this year, and then we watched it and then

643
00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:03,359
Speaker 2: I I've watched like every night on TikTok when she's live,

644
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 2: so seen it quite a bit.

645
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 1: All in my head is just seeing all the cash

646
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 1: symbols of every time she's cashed in on all of

647
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,960
Speaker 1: her fans, from in person, in theaters at home.

648
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,760
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I've given her all my money and that's fine.

649
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:18,919
Speaker 1: Well, I would rate that concert special. I mean, I

650
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,680
Speaker 1: don't have anything I didn't enjoy about it. I feel

651
00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 1: like it's a different five out of five, just because

652
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,439
Speaker 1: it's not the way I would rate a movie. But

653
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:29,679
Speaker 1: it as a concert special five out of five. How

654
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 1: do you get better than that? I mean, all right,

655
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,320
Speaker 1: we'll come back and give our spoiler free review of

656
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:40,440
Speaker 1: Sing Sing. I'm going to get into a spoiler free

657
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:45,840
Speaker 1: movie review now. Sing Sing, starring Coleman Domingo. It's about

658
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:49,200
Speaker 1: him being in prison for a crime He didn't commit.

659
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:53,400
Speaker 1: While he's in prison, he forms a theater group, and

660
00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 1: through this theater group, all these men bond acting. And

661
00:26:56,840 --> 00:27:00,640
Speaker 1: this was a really powerful movie, a really powerful story.

662
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:04,920
Speaker 1: And you think prison movie, it's gonna be a gritty, dark,

663
00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 1: violent prison movie, but it's not that whatsoever. Now I

664
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,439
Speaker 1: don't think that's what I really enjoyed about. This movie

665
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:14,399
Speaker 1: doesn't really focus on the crimes they committed. Some of

666
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:15,840
Speaker 1: them you find out about, some of them you have

667
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 1: no idea about. But it was really focused on the

668
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 1: power of art, the fact that men have a really

669
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:26,240
Speaker 1: hard time communicating their feelings and expressing them to other people,

670
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:32,240
Speaker 1: the prison system, and just the art of doing something

671
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 1: where you're not really supposed to find beauty and finding

672
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:40,639
Speaker 1: something special, like hey, community through theater with these people

673
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:43,600
Speaker 1: who you wouldn't think would be enjoying acting.

674
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 2: I have a couple notes. One of the coolest parts

675
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:49,119
Speaker 2: is that most of the cast was portrayed by formally

676
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:53,320
Speaker 2: incarcerated actors, which I thought was a really cool ads

677
00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:57,359
Speaker 2: just like depth and truth to the performance. And then

678
00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 2: at the end they showed actual footage through program. It

679
00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:04,280
Speaker 2: was called I think Rehabilitation through the Arts RTA, and

680
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 2: they showed them doing these plays and like who some

681
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:12,359
Speaker 2: of these characters were based on. Overall, just a really

682
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,679
Speaker 2: emotional movie. I think I cried a couple times. So

683
00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:21,479
Speaker 2: well done. The storytelling was incredible, the visuals of just

684
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 2: this like very sterile, cold prison, and then like their

685
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,440
Speaker 2: costumes and the work they put into it. I also

686
00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:32,520
Speaker 2: enjoyed it because it wasn't glorifying anything or trying to

687
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:35,919
Speaker 2: say that like they didn't commit crimes, which obviously he

688
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 2: was there. He was wrongly accused and acquitted or tried.

689
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:44,840
Speaker 2: But it wasn't saying like, oh, these men are all angels,

690
00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:47,120
Speaker 2: none of them have ever done anything. It kind of

691
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 2: was like they're this and now they are turning their

692
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,120
Speaker 2: lives around. So I just thought it was incredibly well done.

693
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 1: So what happens at the beginning of the movie, it

694
00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:59,000
Speaker 1: is them meeting trying to decide what play they want

695
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,160
Speaker 1: to do. Is a writer he has like a book

696
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,840
Speaker 1: that was very well known. At the beginning of the movie,

697
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,280
Speaker 1: like another prisoner asked him if he could sign his book.

698
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 1: But essentially he is primarily the one who writes these

699
00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:14,280
Speaker 1: plays that they do. And then another prisoner decides that

700
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:17,720
Speaker 1: instead of doing a drama which there experienced drama every

701
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 1: day in their life being in there, He's like, let's

702
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,040
Speaker 1: do a comedy because we need to laugh, we need

703
00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:25,080
Speaker 1: to do something fun. So the guy that they're working with,

704
00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:27,840
Speaker 1: who oversees the group, goes home in a weekend and

705
00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:30,920
Speaker 1: writes this entire just wacky play.

706
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,479
Speaker 2: That like they were throwing out ideas, they were like

707
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 2: Egyptians time traveler. He wrote a play that encompasses everything,

708
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 2: and so it's so out there.

709
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 1: For me as a writer. That was the only unbelievable part.

710
00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 2: That he wrote whole plane he wrote, or that he

711
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:46,200
Speaker 2: managed to fit everything in.

712
00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:48,480
Speaker 1: There, all the things he wrote. And I think just

713
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 1: the fact that he wrote an entire play in a

714
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 1: weekend with lines and everything for everybody incorporated everything, and

715
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:57,240
Speaker 1: then there the entire movie is them just rehearsing the play.

716
00:29:57,760 --> 00:29:59,200
Speaker 1: I was like, how did he do that all the

717
00:29:59,240 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 1: weekend with nothing else to do? But that was the

718
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,400
Speaker 1: only portion of the movie. Like, I'm gonna suspend belief

719
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 1: a little bit.

720
00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 2: Also, we should a it's called Sing Sing because it

721
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 2: is based at the prison in New York called Sing Sing.

722
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:14,760
Speaker 1: So the entire movie is them rehearsing this play, you

723
00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:17,800
Speaker 1: find out more about their backstories.

724
00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 2: And then you have Common Domingo trying to appeal his

725
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 2: prison sentence. So that's the other like interwoven plot line.

726
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,360
Speaker 1: And it's almost like that is that is the b

727
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: plot line because it's so focused on the play, them

728
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:31,160
Speaker 1: trying to get their characters downright, them trying to teach

729
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 1: acting to people who are not trained in acting whatsoever.

730
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 1: And then throughout I would say the second and third

731
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 1: act is that more raw human emotion coming out of

732
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 1: everybody dealing with things that prisoners deal with, wanting to

733
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:49,320
Speaker 1: get outside, worrying what life will be like once they

734
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 1: get outside, worrying that they are so just used to

735
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:56,360
Speaker 1: this everyday life that that is all that they should

736
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 1: deserve in life. And there are some moments that hit

737
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,160
Speaker 1: me and the gut. I didn't cry like you did,

738
00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 1: but I wanted to.

739
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 2: It was It's very nuanced, and I enjoyed the range

740
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,600
Speaker 2: of emotions because it showed the human side and you

741
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 2: have to kind of grapple with Okay, they have done

742
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:16,560
Speaker 2: bad things, they're there for a reason, but also just

743
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 2: this idea of second chances and rehabilitation and who were

744
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:26,720
Speaker 2: we to play judge like if somebody appeals and it's

745
00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 2: like actually able to get out, like that's a judge

746
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 2: has determined that. Like it just was. I truly just

747
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 2: had a lot of emotions and I can't articulate well

748
00:31:35,080 --> 00:31:35,920
Speaker 2: how it made me feel.

749
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:39,800
Speaker 1: I think it was also probably recently watching Presumed Innocent

750
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:43,040
Speaker 1: and thinking more about the legal system of thinking how

751
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 1: sometimes you don't have all the facts.

752
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 2: You just have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt, Like.

753
00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:50,520
Speaker 1: It's just proving that that you could be wrong, but

754
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,959
Speaker 1: you could have the better case and put somebody in

755
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:56,920
Speaker 1: prison just because you had a better lawyer, you had more.

756
00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:02,760
Speaker 2: Jess Mercy with Vie Jordan just based on a true story.

757
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,520
Speaker 1: Which reminds me of a time where I was so

758
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 1: paranoid that I would have to prove my whereabouts for

759
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,040
Speaker 1: a period of my life just because I was like,

760
00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:12,840
Speaker 1: what if somebody tries to say I was at this

761
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 1: time when a crime took place, that I was very

762
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:19,040
Speaker 1: vigilant about getting receipts or I would like smile at

763
00:32:19,080 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 1: like security cameras just to know, ay, I was there

764
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:23,640
Speaker 1: at that time at two point fifty one PM, I

765
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 1: am on that seven to eleven camera just because you

766
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 1: never know when you have to prove it.

767
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,200
Speaker 2: Or the fact that you do have a name that

768
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 2: is I don't know some criminals.

769
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, the same name anytime I go to Mexico, or

770
00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:38,920
Speaker 1: anytime I go to Canada, or on even an American Idol.

771
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 2: Lot or even when we came back from Costa Rica.

772
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, anytime I leave the country.

773
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:43,800
Speaker 2: Try to why my wife helped you.

774
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:48,680
Speaker 1: Honestly, they're like, okay, but I have such a common name,

775
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,240
Speaker 1: or somebody who has my name has done some awful

776
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:52,440
Speaker 1: things and is on some list.

777
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:54,719
Speaker 2: But it's so weird because it's like you have a

778
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,320
Speaker 2: passport and like a social Security number and you're not

779
00:32:57,480 --> 00:32:58,200
Speaker 2: that person.

780
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 1: But I get flagged every single That's what's so weird.

781
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 1: It has happened for the last at least eight years,

782
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:07,560
Speaker 1: and it keeps happening, and I don't know what I

783
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 1: can do. Sometimes I want to give them a warning,

784
00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 1: saying like hey, this may be good flag, but then

785
00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:13,840
Speaker 1: I feel like that's more of a mmm.

786
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:15,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, suspicious to like flag the flag.

787
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's harder to explain. But maybe that's where

788
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 1: al somewhere someone this is rooted in. But back to

789
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 1: the movie, Coleman Domingo has one of the best voices

790
00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 1: in Hollywood, Like just his hearing his voice to me

791
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:29,520
Speaker 1: vocal to just his tone. I could listen to him

792
00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,440
Speaker 1: like I want an audiobook that he narrates, just because

793
00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:34,800
Speaker 1: he has a really good deep voice. He does, and

794
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,320
Speaker 1: I don't really hear people talk and think I want

795
00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:39,160
Speaker 1: their voice, But I wish I had his voice. This

796
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 1: podcast would sound much better. I could get voice work,

797
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 1: I'd be more because he has a voice that just

798
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:47,000
Speaker 1: sucks you in and draws you into every single line

799
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 1: that he is saying.

800
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 2: He's also done theater before.

801
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:51,440
Speaker 1: And it comes out in this movie.

802
00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, So I feel like you see that he's very

803
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 2: as an actor, like meticulous with this speech.

804
00:33:57,400 --> 00:33:59,880
Speaker 1: And I think my favorite thing, hands down, was, like

805
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,160
Speaker 1: were saying earlier, the fact that they use the real

806
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:08,160
Speaker 1: people because it adds this extra layer of authenticity, which

807
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:12,120
Speaker 1: I love it when any director just finds regular, common

808
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:16,319
Speaker 1: people to act in movies, because you get that genuine interaction.

809
00:34:16,719 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 1: It's not super polished, but it doesn't in this case

810
00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 1: really doesn't need to be. But even like Martin Scorsese

811
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:24,839
Speaker 1: using regular everyday people and Killers of the Flower Moon,

812
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 1: it just feels more natural, feels more authentic, and if

813
00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 1: you have a really good director who is able to

814
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,600
Speaker 1: get a performance out of somebody who isn't trained, it's

815
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:36,480
Speaker 1: just so much better. So I think out of any

816
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:40,080
Speaker 1: part of this film making process, I think that is

817
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:44,040
Speaker 1: really what made this movie stand out, because you feel

818
00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:46,839
Speaker 1: this bond between them as well, knowing that they've all

819
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:47,640
Speaker 1: gone through this.

820
00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 2: In real life and they're now they're acting it out

821
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:50,680
Speaker 2: for you.

822
00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 1: And then you can see their skills that they learn,

823
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:57,319
Speaker 1: probably through that in prison, actually come out now in

824
00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:01,680
Speaker 1: a real movie. So I I just loved every aspect

825
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:05,120
Speaker 1: of that. Just great cast chemistry that I haven't seen

826
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:06,040
Speaker 1: done at this level.

827
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:06,960
Speaker 2: It was phenomenal.

828
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:10,400
Speaker 1: What would you rate, Sing Sing Oh, I'm going to

829
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 1: give it a five, given it a five.

830
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:13,520
Speaker 2: I felt all the feelings.

831
00:35:13,960 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, no notes, I would give it a strong four

832
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:19,600
Speaker 1: point five at a five. And I think this will

833
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,439
Speaker 1: this will be a movie that if you go into

834
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,960
Speaker 1: with a really open mind, without thinking of the world

835
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,360
Speaker 1: and all the other aspects of what it means to

836
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:31,400
Speaker 1: be incarcerated, I think you will really enjoy it. And

837
00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:34,520
Speaker 1: also bonus points for Coleman Domingo's voice tone and that

838
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:36,200
Speaker 1: is our review of Sing Sing.

839
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:44,480
Speaker 3: It's time to head down to movie Mike Treylor Paul hey.

840
00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:49,600
Speaker 1: Man, what if Way TK really brought the robot apocalyps? Yeah, man,

841
00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 1: soone should make that movie. That's how I feel Kylo

842
00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:58,080
Speaker 1: Mooney's thought process was when hitching the idea of why

843
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:01,040
Speaker 1: two K. If you're not familiar with Kyle Mooney, he

844
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 1: is making his directorial debut in this movie called Y

845
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:07,400
Speaker 1: two K. He was an SNL cast member that I

846
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:11,160
Speaker 1: feel never really had his moment to shine. And I

847
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:13,080
Speaker 1: think he's a funny guy. He had a lot of

848
00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:17,719
Speaker 1: good digital shorts, but I almost feel like his ideas

849
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:22,200
Speaker 1: weren't really prime for television for everybody to find funny.

850
00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,960
Speaker 1: I almost feel like his brand of comedy are only

851
00:36:26,040 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 1: things that he finds funny. But after watching the trailer

852
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:31,840
Speaker 1: for this movie, I kind of feel like it's going

853
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,800
Speaker 1: to come through a little bit better in such a wacky,

854
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 1: zany comedy. But of course he put himself in this movie,

855
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: and what does he play. He plays a stoner. That

856
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,360
Speaker 1: is just how I feel about his brand of humor.

857
00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:45,600
Speaker 1: You almost have to be somebody who is doing Bond

858
00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:48,719
Speaker 1: grips to really understand I don't want to say the

859
00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 1: greatness that is Kyle Mooney, but his brand of comedy.

860
00:36:51,680 --> 00:36:53,640
Speaker 1: But when you look at what type of movie this is,

861
00:36:53,680 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 1: it takes place New Year's Eve nineteen ninety nine at

862
00:36:57,080 --> 00:37:01,239
Speaker 1: a party where everything that had been worrying about that

863
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:04,279
Speaker 1: year when the year changes from nineteen ninety nine to

864
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 1: two thousand, that all machines are gonna shut down. We're

865
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:12,520
Speaker 1: going to have this computer flaw that causes the entire

866
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:14,920
Speaker 1: world to go berserk. We thought we were going to

867
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,239
Speaker 1: lose power, We thought all of our records were going

868
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:19,560
Speaker 1: to go out the window just because we were going

869
00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:23,120
Speaker 1: from nineteen ninety nine to two thousand. So this movie

870
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:26,600
Speaker 1: is going to say, hekay, that actually happened. All of

871
00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:30,279
Speaker 1: our technology started revolting. Not only did they shut down,

872
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:32,840
Speaker 1: but now they are trying to kill us. So that

873
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:36,480
Speaker 1: is the premise of this movie. It is an ensemble comedy.

874
00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:40,360
Speaker 1: It is packing in a nostalgia punch in the late nineties,

875
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:42,920
Speaker 1: well really late nineties, right at the cusp of the

876
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:46,279
Speaker 1: two thousands. And I actually like that type of nostalgia,

877
00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:49,440
Speaker 1: the nostalgia that is much more rooted in the years.

878
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,880
Speaker 1: All the references of that time more so than just

879
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:56,239
Speaker 1: bringing back a franchise from nineteen ninety nine or early

880
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,799
Speaker 1: two thousands, I think this is the way to go

881
00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:03,200
Speaker 1: to hook in in our generation right now, millennials. So

882
00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:05,200
Speaker 1: we'll get into more about this movie, but right now,

883
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:07,520
Speaker 1: here's just a little bit of the Y two K trailer,

884
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,719
Speaker 1: which is coming out in theaters this December. In a few.

885
00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:13,279
Speaker 2: Hours, you have an excuse to kiss the girl of

886
00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,239
Speaker 2: your dreams.

887
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:23,360
Speaker 1: White two K is real selfas on the net, tomagotcha

888
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:25,400
Speaker 1: just drilled towards chick's heads. Come on, we gotta go.

889
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:30,480
Speaker 1: We're experiencing major problems as a result of the watching Fay.

890
00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:35,719
Speaker 2: Right down, Bye bye Human Race. We're talking global computer apocalypse.

891
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:41,319
Speaker 1: Sorry, guys, I guess you're so. This movie reminds me

892
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:44,320
Speaker 1: of this is the end from the early twenty tens,

893
00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:47,200
Speaker 1: which I feel of That movie was kind of the

894
00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:51,200
Speaker 1: book end to all of those late two thousands, mid

895
00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:56,320
Speaker 1: two thousands comedies that starred Jonah Hill, Seth Rogan, James Franco.

896
00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:58,960
Speaker 1: They were all in that movie playing themselves and it

897
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,000
Speaker 1: kind of had the same remis they all go to

898
00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:04,240
Speaker 1: a party and then the zombie apocalypse in that movie

899
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:07,120
Speaker 1: starts happening, and they all try to survive, some of

900
00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:11,080
Speaker 1: them die, and it is a different level in that

901
00:39:11,160 --> 00:39:14,759
Speaker 1: movie because they are all so famous and also funny.

902
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:18,920
Speaker 1: But here you're working with a relatively unknown cast. You

903
00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 1: would recognize a lot of their faces before you recognize

904
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:25,279
Speaker 1: their name. You have Jaden Martel playing the lead in

905
00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:27,600
Speaker 1: this movie, who if you've seen it, he was one

906
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:29,439
Speaker 1: of the kids who grew up to be Bill Hayter.

907
00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 1: You also have Rachel Zegler, who was going to be

908
00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:34,359
Speaker 1: in the new snow White movie. She was last year

909
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 1: in the Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. And then you

910
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:41,160
Speaker 1: also have Julian Dennison, who was the kid in Deadpool two.

911
00:39:41,440 --> 00:39:43,839
Speaker 1: He was also in a really great Tako Ytt movie,

912
00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:46,839
Speaker 1: Hunt for the Wilder People with Sam Neil, which came

913
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 1: out also in the early twenty tens. If you haven't

914
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:51,480
Speaker 1: seen that one, I do feel like that is one

915
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:54,440
Speaker 1: of Taiko Watt's batter movies. He's the guy who did

916
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:57,840
Speaker 1: thora Ragnarok, thlor Love and Thunder. Some people hate that movie.

917
00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:01,200
Speaker 1: I still enjoy that one, although I haven't gone back

918
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:04,040
Speaker 1: and revisited that movie, so maybe it was just because

919
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:06,200
Speaker 1: I was itching for a Marvel movie back when that

920
00:40:06,239 --> 00:40:09,000
Speaker 1: one came out. The only real injustice I thought that

921
00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:13,160
Speaker 1: movie did was wasting Christian Bale as Gore the god Butcher.

922
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:18,080
Speaker 1: We got Christian Baale batman himself, Academy Award winning Christian Bale,

923
00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,440
Speaker 1: and that villain would just so lackluster. But enough of

924
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:24,360
Speaker 1: the Marvel rant here. It also reminds me of like

925
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:27,439
Speaker 1: twenty tens party movies, which were a thing. I feel

926
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:29,560
Speaker 1: like everybody in the twenty tens were just partying. Whether

927
00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:32,160
Speaker 1: it was the music of just hey, let's party tonight

928
00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:35,360
Speaker 1: because we're not gonna get tomorrow. The movies also echoed

929
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:38,000
Speaker 1: that of let's hang out, have big house parties and

930
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:40,360
Speaker 1: go crazy. You get a little bit of a glimpse

931
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:43,000
Speaker 1: of that in this movie where our lead here is

932
00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,120
Speaker 1: going to this party trying to kiss the girl of

933
00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:48,719
Speaker 1: his dreams, and then midnight strikes and all the technology

934
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:52,520
Speaker 1: starts revolting and killing people. When that started happening, I

935
00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:54,920
Speaker 1: was like, Okay, it started reminding me of this is

936
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:57,560
Speaker 1: the end. It started reminding me of Project X. Also

937
00:40:57,680 --> 00:41:01,360
Speaker 1: that my name is Earl episode also called White Whenever

938
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:04,680
Speaker 1: kind of along the same lines. This thing happens when really,

939
00:41:04,680 --> 00:41:07,520
Speaker 1: it's just I think somebody forgot to pay the electricity bill,

940
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:10,719
Speaker 1: but they think that the world has shut down and

941
00:41:10,760 --> 00:41:13,840
Speaker 1: they all go live in the Superstore. Hilarious episode. My

942
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:17,120
Speaker 1: Name Is Earl is such an underrated TV show. Whenever

943
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:18,759
Speaker 1: I'm feeling like I just need to pick me up,

944
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:20,759
Speaker 1: I go watch episodes of My Name Is Earl. And

945
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 1: this movie is essentially that episode in a longer format.

946
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,759
Speaker 1: But once the toys started revolting, once they referenced the

947
00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:31,360
Speaker 1: Tamagatchi there, which is an excellent late nineties reference, it

948
00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:35,440
Speaker 1: reminded me of that final battle scene in Small Soldiers

949
00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:37,960
Speaker 1: where you have the toys with the nail gun shooting

950
00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 1: people throwing flaming tennis balls. If there is a late

951
00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:45,560
Speaker 1: nineties nostalgia movie for me that I feel should be remade,

952
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:47,840
Speaker 1: I think it is Small Soldiers. It came out in

953
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:51,560
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety eight. I ate up that VHS. I wanted

954
00:41:51,560 --> 00:41:54,319
Speaker 1: the toys but couldn't afford the toys. I see them

955
00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:56,200
Speaker 1: every now and then at the thrift shop and I'm like, oh,

956
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:57,680
Speaker 1: I really wish I could get one of those, but

957
00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:01,279
Speaker 1: they're still expensive. Because anything from our childhood now people

958
00:42:01,320 --> 00:42:03,440
Speaker 1: are trying to make money off of so I feel

959
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:05,440
Speaker 1: like if they were to remake that movie with the

960
00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:08,440
Speaker 1: technology now, they would look so much better. You'd get

961
00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:11,000
Speaker 1: the tie in with the toys now, and you'd be

962
00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:13,759
Speaker 1: banking much like this. Why two K movie on the

963
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:16,120
Speaker 1: nostalgia of all those millennials who grew up with that

964
00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:19,439
Speaker 1: movie but now have adult money. So I know people

965
00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,359
Speaker 1: keep saying that Hollywood is out of ideas. They keep

966
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:25,000
Speaker 1: remaking everything. We got Beatle, just Beatle just coming out.

967
00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:27,799
Speaker 1: Why can't we get a small Soldier's reboot. The other

968
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:31,080
Speaker 1: interesting cast member in Y two K is Fred Durst,

969
00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:33,960
Speaker 1: the lead singer olymp Biscuit. I feel like he is

970
00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:37,320
Speaker 1: slowly trying to get back into acting. I know he

971
00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 1: acted for a little bit here and there. I saw

972
00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:42,560
Speaker 1: him earlier this year and I saw the TV Glow.

973
00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:45,440
Speaker 1: He had a very small role in that you couldn't

974
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:47,920
Speaker 1: even tell it was him. And the only way I

975
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,160
Speaker 1: knew it was him going into it because I looked

976
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:52,520
Speaker 1: up the cast and saw Fred Durst is in this movie,

977
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:55,279
Speaker 1: and he plays like a dad who's a deadbeat kind

978
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 1: of a jerk, and you really only get a quick

979
00:42:58,200 --> 00:43:00,840
Speaker 1: glance of his side. But he's like in the shadows

980
00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:03,560
Speaker 1: for the majority of his scenes, so I wouldn't really

981
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:05,879
Speaker 1: say that was like a big acting role for him.

982
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:08,439
Speaker 1: It was really more of a small cameo. It kind

983
00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:11,000
Speaker 1: of looks like he has more of a role here.

984
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:14,719
Speaker 1: He is in his classic limbiscuit hat turned around that

985
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,360
Speaker 1: read one that we all knew him for. I feel like,

986
00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:20,160
Speaker 1: since this movie is taking place in nineteen ninety nine,

987
00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:22,799
Speaker 1: he is going to be full on fred Durst. This

988
00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:27,120
Speaker 1: movie cost an estimated ten million dollars, which is surprisingly low,

989
00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:29,319
Speaker 1: so I feel like they were able to get the

990
00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:32,640
Speaker 1: cast pretty cheap, maybe spent the majority of the money

991
00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:35,040
Speaker 1: on some of these special effects or actually building some

992
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:39,279
Speaker 1: of these killer robots. This movie feels to me like

993
00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:42,200
Speaker 1: if it came out in nineteen ninety nine when it

994
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:45,080
Speaker 1: is set, it wouldn't have done that well in theaters,

995
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:48,239
Speaker 1: but once it went to VHS and DVD, it would

996
00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,440
Speaker 1: be one of those movies that would get passed around

997
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:54,279
Speaker 1: and watched and quoted and laughed at and had some

998
00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:58,400
Speaker 1: just astronomical DVD sails, much like a movie like Grandma's

999
00:43:58,400 --> 00:44:01,080
Speaker 1: Boy that I saw. Nick Schwartz to the comedian and

1000
00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:03,759
Speaker 1: he's also has I would say a pretty major role

1001
00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:06,920
Speaker 1: in that movie on how people riped that movie to

1002
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:10,120
Speaker 1: shreds when it first came out, and how the majority

1003
00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:13,800
Speaker 1: of that cast was really unknown unless you were super

1004
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 1: into all the Adam Sandler movies, but the fact that

1005
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:19,000
Speaker 1: it was produced by Adam Sandler and he's not actually

1006
00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:23,279
Speaker 1: in it. It just got terrible, terrible reviews, bombed at

1007
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:27,040
Speaker 1: the box office, but once it went to DVD and VHS,

1008
00:44:27,080 --> 00:44:30,640
Speaker 1: it crushed dominated made millions of dollars there, And I

1009
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:34,720
Speaker 1: think that is kind of the thing that box office

1010
00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:38,719
Speaker 1: bombs don't have anymore. They don't have that ability to

1011
00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:41,440
Speaker 1: make the money on the back end. They don't have

1012
00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:44,600
Speaker 1: the physical media sales, which was a big deal back

1013
00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:48,160
Speaker 1: in the day, because when you did bomb in theaters,

1014
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:51,479
Speaker 1: if it ended up doing well through word of mouth,

1015
00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:53,759
Speaker 1: that people actually watching it once they had the time

1016
00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:57,080
Speaker 1: to didn't spend the money to go see it in theaters,

1017
00:44:57,080 --> 00:45:00,480
Speaker 1: but maybe rented it from a blockbuster, a rat box.

1018
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:03,880
Speaker 1: People would then start going to buy the actual DVD

1019
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:06,640
Speaker 1: so they could watch it again at home. You don't

1020
00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:09,719
Speaker 1: really get that anymore, and I don't really think the

1021
00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:14,120
Speaker 1: numbers are as generous when it comes to people renting

1022
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,960
Speaker 1: movies that just came out in theaters at home, that

1023
00:45:17,040 --> 00:45:19,399
Speaker 1: price is still a little bit expensive unless you're just

1024
00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:21,680
Speaker 1: itching to watch it right in that moment. I think

1025
00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:24,480
Speaker 1: that is who it's for. But I feel like most

1026
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:27,799
Speaker 1: people wait until it's on a streaming service that they

1027
00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:31,120
Speaker 1: pay for, because we feel like I'm already paying for Netflix,

1028
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 1: I'm paying for Hulu, I'm paying for Max. I'm not

1029
00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:36,680
Speaker 1: gonna pay on top of that to watch this again.

1030
00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:39,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna wait until it falls into one of those

1031
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:42,719
Speaker 1: subscription services that I already pay for because I'm not

1032
00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:45,080
Speaker 1: adding more to this bill. And with all the streaming

1033
00:45:45,120 --> 00:45:48,239
Speaker 1: services that we are subscribed to, we don't really go

1034
00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:51,400
Speaker 1: out of our way to find movies that don't exist

1035
00:45:51,440 --> 00:45:55,600
Speaker 1: on one of these, which is a tough scenario for

1036
00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:57,840
Speaker 1: movies to be in, because if you come out in

1037
00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:00,800
Speaker 1: theaters and then don't fall on one of them streamers,

1038
00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:04,560
Speaker 1: where do your movies go? Do they even exist if

1039
00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:07,040
Speaker 1: they're not on one of those? Because every now and

1040
00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:09,000
Speaker 1: then I'll search a movie and when it's not on

1041
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:10,759
Speaker 1: one of those streaming services and I have to pay

1042
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:13,480
Speaker 1: two three dollars, I'm like, WHOA, this is so weird,

1043
00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:17,200
Speaker 1: But then I wouldn't have hesitated fifteen years ago to

1044
00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:19,680
Speaker 1: walk into a store and rent or buy a movie.

1045
00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 1: It just feels weird paying that little amount of money

1046
00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:25,440
Speaker 1: on a digital purchase because you don't really feel like

1047
00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:28,000
Speaker 1: you're getting anything when you could just go to Netflix

1048
00:46:28,080 --> 00:46:29,799
Speaker 1: and watch it for free and I don't care if

1049
00:46:29,800 --> 00:46:33,120
Speaker 1: it's ninety nine cents, seventy nine cents, or just one cent.

1050
00:46:33,600 --> 00:46:35,719
Speaker 1: It just feels like I have much more of a

1051
00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:38,360
Speaker 1: thought process when I have to pay any sort of money.

1052
00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:41,800
Speaker 1: So for a movie like this coming out, original comedy

1053
00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:44,319
Speaker 1: is not attached to a franchise. If a movie like

1054
00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:48,440
Speaker 1: this comes out in theaters and doesn't do well, then

1055
00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:52,160
Speaker 1: studios are gonna say more and more that we can't

1056
00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:55,480
Speaker 1: make comedies because they don't make money. The good thing

1057
00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:57,880
Speaker 1: about this one is that it is an a twenty

1058
00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:02,040
Speaker 1: four movie that does take risks on smaller budget movies.

1059
00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:06,040
Speaker 1: They also have a partnership now with Max, so this

1060
00:47:06,080 --> 00:47:09,800
Speaker 1: movie probably will drop on their services two three months

1061
00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:12,640
Speaker 1: after it comes out in theaters. But I would say,

1062
00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:15,880
Speaker 1: as always, if you want to see more movies like this,

1063
00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:18,960
Speaker 1: if you're somebody who has said why don't they make

1064
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:22,359
Speaker 1: great comedies anymore. We got to support more movies like this,

1065
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:24,719
Speaker 1: and hopefully Kyle Mooney does a good job in his

1066
00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:27,840
Speaker 1: directorial debut and doesn't leave us thinking what did I

1067
00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:28,399
Speaker 1: just watch?

1068
00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:33,280
Speaker 2: And that was this week's edition of Movie min Framer par.

1069
00:47:33,640 --> 00:47:35,720
Speaker 1: And that is going to do it for another episode

1070
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:38,480
Speaker 1: here of the podcast. But before I go, I got

1071
00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:41,160
Speaker 1: to give my listeners shout out of the week, and

1072
00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:45,480
Speaker 1: this week's listeners shout out is Gina Center six six

1073
00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:48,600
Speaker 1: to two. Oh hopefully I said your last name there correctly,

1074
00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:52,200
Speaker 1: but she commented on Instagram of a real I posted

1075
00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:56,000
Speaker 1: from last week's episode with my top ten movie pet peeves.

1076
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:58,799
Speaker 1: If you miss that episode, just go back one in

1077
00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:01,719
Speaker 1: the feed because I was deaf only on one during that.

1078
00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:05,040
Speaker 1: But she wrote, great podcast as usual. We saw Blink

1079
00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:08,560
Speaker 1: twice yesterday and did not enjoy it. Way too strange

1080
00:48:08,600 --> 00:48:11,600
Speaker 1: for me shocked faced emoji, and I said in my

1081
00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:14,960
Speaker 1: review it is a movie I believe you're either going

1082
00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:19,160
Speaker 1: to love or you're gonna hate. Anything in the psychological

1083
00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:23,759
Speaker 1: thriller genre, especially with really dark and sinister images, is

1084
00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:27,600
Speaker 1: going to have that effect on people and split audiences

1085
00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:30,080
Speaker 1: in two. But that is why I love movies is

1086
00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:32,800
Speaker 1: because two people can go watch the exact same movie

1087
00:48:33,160 --> 00:48:35,560
Speaker 1: and feel differently about it. You can come on a

1088
00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:38,080
Speaker 1: podcast and talk about it. So thank you Gina. Here

1089
00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:40,839
Speaker 1: this week's listener shout out of the week. Thank you

1090
00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:43,720
Speaker 1: right now listening on your earbuds, you're on a drive,
