I'm gonna let you know what, 7 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:17,480 Speaker 1: I buy a ticket to them because I'm excited, or 8 00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:19,279 Speaker 1: want to skip them because they don't really interest me 9 00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:22,000 Speaker 1: that much. In the movie review, we'll be talking about 10 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,360 Speaker 1: A Real Pain, which is directed and stars Jesse Eisenberg, 11 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:28,480 Speaker 1: my favorite fast talker.

This is Movie Mike Movie Podcast. 24 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 1: It is time to play ticket or skip it. I 25 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: have a lot of movie projects that have been announced 26 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: in the last week or so. We're gonna run through 27 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:21,480 Speaker 1: them and I'll give you my verdict, ticket or skip it? 28 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 1: What I want to buy a ticket to go watch 29 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 1: this movie in theaters? Or what I want to skip 30 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 1: it all together? Let's get right into it. I think 31 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: the biggest movie project that got announced in the last 32 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 1: week that has all the nerds, myself included, in a tizzy. 33 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,679 Speaker 1: They have announced a new Star Wars trilogy is in 34 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: the works, and I think the thing that people are 35 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: the most upset about is that it's not continuing on 36 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: with the Skywalker saga that all finished up, and the 37 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:55,559 Speaker 1: way Star Wars movies have always been released in chapters 38 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: and one, two in three have all been together. So 39 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 1: you have the originals from back in the s seventies 40 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: and eighties, and then you have the prequels to those 41 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: that came out in the late nineties and early two thousands, 42 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 1: and then you have the Skywalker saga that came out 43 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: in the twenty tens that right now everybody hates, but 44 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 1: give it twenty years and everybody is going to love them, 45 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 1: maybe because so many people hated that project, which really 46 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: is any Star Wars project right now. This new trilogy 47 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: that they are working on will focus on an entirely 48 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 1: new story, new characters for the most part, and there's 49 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: no real word on when it takes place. The thing 50 00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 1: about it, though, is they said that Ray played by 51 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: Daisy Ridley, is going to have a role in several 52 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,639 Speaker 1: of these Star Wars movies that are being developed, So again, 53 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 1: it's still unclear on who is going to be in 54 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: these movies when they are going to take place. Will 55 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: it be way out in the future from when the 56 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: Skywalker saga happened. I think that is a possibility. I 57 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 1: really don't see it taking place right after and picking 58 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: up in a timeframe that we saw Ray in. And 59 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 1: I have been one of the only people, at least 60 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:05,119 Speaker 1: in my friend group and online who has been a 61 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: fan of the Daisy Ridley movies. They really reignited my 62 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 1: I don't even say my love of Star Wars. I 63 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 1: enjoy Star Wars, but they are not my go to 64 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 1: sci fi franchise. And after watching those movies in theaters, 65 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:21,959 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, this is what movies should be 66 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 1: right now, big fun action. Don't think too much about it. 67 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: But for the people who love the Star Wars lore 68 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: and live and breathe that grew up with those original movies, 69 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 1: I think there are some elements of the story that 70 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 1: felt like a little bit of a slap in the 71 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: face to you. You could credit some lazy writing here 72 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: and there, but I still think at the core those 73 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: movies did really well for me as a casual Star 74 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 1: Wars fan, especially with the Force Awakened. That was a 75 00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: big moment, a big cinematic moment that maybe kind of 76 00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: went down from the second and third movie, But altogether 77 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: I really enjoyed that trilogy, So I would have been 78 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 1: a fan if they would have done one more. But 79 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: I think what they want to do is shift the 80 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 1: model a little bit and take maybe what has been 81 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 1: working over on Disney Plus, which there have been some 82 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 1: really solid Star Wars franchises over there. The Mandalorian has 83 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 1: been my favorite so far, which there is also a 84 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 1: Mandalorian movie in the work, so I don't think they 85 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 1: are lumping it together with this trilogy. Maybe we see 86 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 1: the Mandalorian in this trilogy, but I don't think so. 87 00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: I think for the most part they're gonna keep all 88 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 1: those things separate in different timelines. But this trilogy is 89 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,599 Speaker 1: being developed by Simon Kinberg, who is one of the 90 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:44,040 Speaker 1: creative minds behind the X Men movies. So oh man, 91 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: if they could give it an X Men flair to it, 92 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: I think that would be awesome. But like I mentioned earlier, 93 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: the Mandalorian and Grogu movie is supposed to come out 94 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:55,039 Speaker 1: on May twenty second, twenty twenty six, and these other 95 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: Star Wars movies are supposed to come out on December eighteenth, 96 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,279 Speaker 1: twenty twenty six and Summer seventeenth, twenty twenty seven. So 97 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:06,159 Speaker 1: still in way early developmental stages, but glad to know 98 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: that these movies are coming for a new Star Wars trilogy. 99 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: I'm gonna buy a ticket to it. I am all 100 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,839 Speaker 1: in on seeing more Star Wars movies on the big 101 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: screen and keeping the medium Star Wars characters to Disney. Plus, 102 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 1: I think it'll be interesting to see how the Mandalorian 103 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 1: transfers onto the big screen because that last season, oh 104 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: it started to feel kind of like a Saturday morning, 105 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: very family friendly TV show, which I just thought there 106 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 1: was more on the line in that first season more 107 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: that you've learned about the character, and now it just 108 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: kind of has this formula of, oh, here's a problem 109 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: in this episode, let's figure it out, and it's all 110 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 1: wrapped up in a nice little bow by the end 111 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:52,919 Speaker 1: of it. So hopefully they bring back some of that 112 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 1: energy from the first season to give you some real 113 00:05:55,800 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: grit to the character, some better action and fighting sequences. Otherwise, 114 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 1: so why do I care about seeing it on the 115 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,159 Speaker 1: big screen when I could just go back and watch 116 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 1: season one? All right? All right? Moving on now to 117 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: our next project. Tom Cruise reportedly wants Glenn Powell, Yes, 118 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:13,919 Speaker 1: Glenn Powell from Twisters, from Hitman, Anyone but you. He 119 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,159 Speaker 1: wants Glenn to replace him as the lead in the 120 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 1: Mission Impossible franchise after It looks like Tom Cruise is 121 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: maybe going to dip out after the next one, which 122 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 1: that trailer just dropped recently. Maybe I'll feature that in 123 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: the trailer park next week. And it seems like they 124 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 1: have become friends because they were both in Top Gun together, 125 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 1: and I really think that Tom Cruise maybe somehow sees 126 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:41,560 Speaker 1: himself in Glenn Powell, even though Glenn Powell, I feel 127 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: is a much better looking actor. Obviously at this point 128 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 1: in his career, Glenn is still in his thirties, has 129 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 1: nowhere near the success and recognizability and bankability that Tom 130 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 1: Cruise head at that age. But I also think right 131 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 1: now we live in a world where it's so hard 132 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 1: to create big movies. But if there is somebody on 133 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:06,039 Speaker 1: the cusp of that of being that big a level actor, 134 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: it is somebody like Glynn Powell. So maybe Tom Cruise 135 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: recognizes that a little bit. He's been on a string 136 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: of hit after hit movie. I would say his last 137 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: three movies all together, we're just banger after banger. So 138 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 1: maybe Tom Cruise looks at him and says, Okay, I 139 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 1: can't do these movies forever. Because Tom Cruise is notorious 140 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: for doing all of his own stunts, breaking his ankle 141 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: as he jumps from one building to another, riding off 142 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: ramps and motorcycles and throwing in mid air and shooting 143 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: off a parachute in order to win. And I think 144 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: that does add a lot of great production value to 145 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: a movie like this that you need people to go 146 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: see on the big screen in order for it to 147 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,119 Speaker 1: be profitable. So to get people back into the seats 148 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: you have to give him a reason to and Tom 149 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 1: Cruise is really good at that. Even though I don't 150 00:07:57,520 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 1: really like him as a person. I find him a 151 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: little bit off putting. I don't think I would want 152 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: to be in a room with Tom Cruise. I mean, 153 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: I would interview him, because that would be awesome. He's 154 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 1: had so many great movies. But I think if it 155 00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: was just like, oh, you want to hang out with 156 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: the Hollywood actor, Yeah, do you want to hang out 157 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: with Tom Cruise? I think I'm good. But in the 158 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 1: case of Tom Cruise, I can kind of separate the 159 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: art from the artists because as much as I love 160 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: movies and will always encourage people to go to the 161 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 1: theater to enjoy a movie, to really be able to 162 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 1: escape and take it in and it's full glory, that 163 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: is really what I support him on and believe he 164 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: is trying to keep alive. He brought back a shot 165 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 1: of blood into our old krusty cinema body with top gun, 166 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 1: and I was kind of surprised about the numbers from 167 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 1: the Last Mission Impossible movies, because I did think that 168 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,680 Speaker 1: was a big, fun movie, but it didn't really live 169 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 1: up to expectations. So I wonder what this next installment 170 00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 1: is going to do at the box office, and whether 171 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 1: or not there will be a franchise left on the 172 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 1: table for Glenn Powell to even pick up. But somebody 173 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 1: did ask him about it, and he reportedly said his 174 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: mom would never let him do that, which leads me 175 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 1: to believe if you give an answer like that, in 176 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:14,680 Speaker 1: the back of your head, you know you can't say 177 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 1: anything and you have to make a joke. So I 178 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:20,719 Speaker 1: do think there is some truth to this. He has 179 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 1: probably had a conversation. Maybe it's not set in stone, 180 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 1: maybe he can't talk about it yet, but I think 181 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 1: there probably is at least a conversation, just based on 182 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 1: what I've seen from him and Tom Cruise. But the 183 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 1: ruling here is what I pay for a ticket or 184 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 1: what I skip it to see Glenn Powell in a 185 00:09:38,880 --> 00:09:41,839 Speaker 1: Mission Impossible movie. I don't even think that is a question. 186 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 1: I for sure would buy a ticket to that I 187 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 1: did see, though the Mission Impossible movie has had a 188 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: lot of difficulties. Apparently it has a budget approaching four 189 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: hundred million dollars and they're already done filming this movie. 190 00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 1: It's all in post production, so maybe they're doing some 191 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,839 Speaker 1: crazy special effects, maybe to close it out. They're making 192 00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 1: a three hour movie. But that is a huge, huge budget, 193 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: and if it does cross that four hundred million dollar mark, 194 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 1: it'll be the fourth film to do so. Oh my gosh, 195 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 1: that is just so much money. I would feel this 196 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: immense pressure for it to be a hit. It is 197 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 1: almost like an NFL team at the beginning of the season. 198 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 1: And I could say this as a Cowboys fan that 199 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: if you go into a season and the goal of 200 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 1: that season is either we win a Super Bowl or 201 00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: we are a laughing stock, that is kind of the 202 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: situation you are in here. You can't put this movie 203 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:39,959 Speaker 1: out that has cost four hundred million dollars make fifty 204 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 1: million dollars your opening weekend. You either have to have 205 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: a smash hit on your hands or just cut your 206 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 1: losses at this point, but the only other movies that 207 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 1: have cost over four hundred million dollars have been Star Wars, 208 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 1: The Force Awakens, Star Wars, The Rise of Skywalker, and 209 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,640 Speaker 1: Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom. I forget how expensive those Jurassic 210 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: World movies are because of all the special effects, But 211 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 1: all those movies have come to us in the last 212 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: ten years. That is just a scary amount of money 213 00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:12,079 Speaker 1: to pay for a movie. Next up, I know I've 214 00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,439 Speaker 1: talked about this before in the Trailer Park, but recently 215 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: a new trailer for Captain America Brave New World came out, 216 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: and the big takeaway from this is we got a 217 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 1: better look at Harrison Ford as Red Hulk. If you're 218 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:28,119 Speaker 1: not familiar with what is going on in this Captain America, 219 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 1: Anthony Mackie has taken over for Chris Evans. He is 220 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 1: the new Captain America. If you didn't watch the Disney 221 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:38,320 Speaker 1: Plus show, I don't really recommend you go back and 222 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,959 Speaker 1: watch it. You might learn some things about where the 223 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 1: character is going into this movie, but I don't think 224 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: they will be expecting everybody to have seen that show. 225 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 1: And hopefully they reset everything within like the verse five 226 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 1: minutes to do a quick little recap so we can 227 00:11:52,840 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 1: move on to the next chapter of Captain America. But 228 00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 1: in this movie, Harrison Ford is trying to become resident. 229 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:05,559 Speaker 1: He tries the team up and befriend Captain America even 230 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: though they have butted heads in the past, and the 231 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 1: result of Harrison Ford's character He's thunder Bolt Ross who 232 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,199 Speaker 1: eventually turns into the Red Hulk, and now we get 233 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 1: to see what he looks like as the Red Hulk, 234 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 1: and I am surprisingly really excited about it. And I 235 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,679 Speaker 1: always liked every iteration of the Hulk, even back to 236 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:29,319 Speaker 1: the original with Eric Bannon. I'm talking only in movies, 237 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 1: not the old school Hulk TV show, But in that version, 238 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 1: we had some very cool, comic accurate things about the Hulk, 239 00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 1: of how high he could jump, how strong he really was, 240 00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 1: how fast he could run. I think overall the story 241 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 1: and we weren't really at the best place with CGI 242 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 1: when that movie came out, so I do think there 243 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: were some things that really hindered that movie and made 244 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: it look too cheesy for audiences to take seriously, which 245 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,679 Speaker 1: has kind of always been the struggle of the Incredible Hulk. 246 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: And then in two thousand, the Ed Norton version. I 247 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 1: love that movie, and that was the kicking off of 248 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 1: the MCU before it was the MCU, and still people 249 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 1: did not enjoy that version of the Hulk, and I 250 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: do think the look of the Hulk wasn't quite there yet, 251 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 1: and what they changed from that version of the Hulk 252 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 1: to the Mark Ruffalo version of the Hulk is now 253 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 1: they do the mapping on the face, so you're actually 254 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: seeing the actor's face on the Hulk when he hulks out. 255 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 1: So you have this connection between the two characters where 256 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: it's not just Okay, I am the human version here 257 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 1: and then when I'm the Hulk, I am this completely 258 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: different person. And I think it shows even better with 259 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 1: the Harrison Ford version where it doesn't look as goofy, 260 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: and I think the Hulk needs to be mean, the 261 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,680 Speaker 1: Hulk needs to be angry, and in a lot of 262 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 1: the verse, well it wasn't even a lot of the versions, 263 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:53,880 Speaker 1: but in the versions that came later of the Hulk 264 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: with smart Hulk, which I don't think they should have 265 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 1: ever done, that really kind of killed the character. But 266 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 1: he started to become more friendly, he started to become 267 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: more in tune with his emotions, and I want the 268 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 1: Hulk who is just an all out just rage ball, 269 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: can't listen to anybody, smashes everything, is a force to 270 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 1: be reckoned with the strongest avenger on the field. I 271 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 1: want that version of the Hulk. So seeing this evil 272 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:22,280 Speaker 1: red version of the Hulk really excites me because we 273 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: might finally get that grit. And even though he is 274 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 1: the villain and you're probably not going to root for him. 275 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 1: I want to see that fight now with him and 276 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 1: Captain America. And when you think about Captain America, like, 277 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 1: what real power does Anthony Mackie's version of Captain America 278 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:41,680 Speaker 1: have Because he wasn't given the same serum as Steve Rogers. 279 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,240 Speaker 1: He just kind of like, hey, here's the shield, now 280 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 1: here you go. Now you're Captain America. Is that really 281 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: all it takes? I hope they answer that question in 282 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: this movie. And I was already sold on this movie 283 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 1: before that, but now I'm not only buying one ticket, 284 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 1: I'm buying two tickets. I don't know why I need 285 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: two tickets, but I'm so sold. I am buying two 286 00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 1: tickets to this new Captain America movie. All right, Moving 287 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 1: on now, there is an Idle Hands remake in the 288 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 1: works at Sony. Idle Hands is what I believe to 289 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: be a forgotten film from nineteen ninety nine. It is 290 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 1: a horror comedy, which you don't really get much these days, 291 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 1: and Idle Hands is very much a movie that if 292 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 1: you did not experience it when it first came out, 293 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 1: if you weren't young when this movie came out. It's 294 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 1: not a movie you can go back in twenty twenty 295 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: four and watch and think, oh, that is a really 296 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: well done movie. And every time around Halloween time it 297 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 1: is a movie I always watch. It was on Amazon, 298 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 1: so I did actually watch this on Halloween this year, 299 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 1: and now so many years later, it doesn't quite hold 300 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 1: up as much as I remember it being so funny 301 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 1: and being one of my favorite movies as a teenager. 302 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: I think it was my impressionable mind back then that 303 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 1: found things funnier and I want to remember the memory 304 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: of when I first experienced this movie, and I think 305 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 1: a remake of that is going to go nowhere. And 306 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 1: attached to this project, you have Finn Wolfhard who is 307 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,880 Speaker 1: writing the script, and you would know Finn Wolfhard from 308 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 1: Stranger Things, which, Oh, that final season is coming out 309 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: next year and I cannot wait for that. I think. 310 00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 1: I don't want to say Stranger Things is an underrated show, 311 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 1: because it's quite possibly one of the most overrated shows 312 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 1: on Netflix. But I think a lot of people who 313 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 1: were so invested in the first and second season have 314 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 1: kind of dipped out by this point. But that last 315 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: season was one of my favorite seasons of any show 316 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: I've ever seen on Netflix, and I'm so excited for 317 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 1: the finale of this and essentially each episode is going 318 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 1: to be a movie that is kind of the level 319 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 1: that Stranger Things is at now, every episode of the movie. 320 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 1: That's how I view it. I don't really see that 321 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 1: as a TV show. A lot of TV shows now 322 00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:00,480 Speaker 1: really kind of walk those lines of being just short 323 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:05,440 Speaker 1: films or being one big, long film split up into chapters. 324 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,400 Speaker 1: That's really all it is now. I think those best 325 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 1: TV shows are really just good movies in disguise and 326 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 1: more digestible format, because everybody has a problem with long 327 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 1: movies these days, but nobody has a problem with watching 328 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,120 Speaker 1: eight episodes of a show. But anyway, he is attached 329 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,399 Speaker 1: to this project. He is writing it along with Billy Burke, 330 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:28,640 Speaker 1: and they might codirect this movie. This is a definite 331 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 1: skippet for me. I just don't like reimaginations of cult 332 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 1: classics because there is nothing you can do to make 333 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,399 Speaker 1: this movie better. It is what it is. And I 334 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 1: hate that cliche phrase, but you are never going to 335 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:49,719 Speaker 1: live up to the memory of something that was so 336 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 1: niched back in nineteen ninety nine. What this movie is 337 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,600 Speaker 1: even about is ridiculous and does it make sense? And 338 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:58,360 Speaker 1: as I was rewatching it, I was like, oh man, 339 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,199 Speaker 1: this movie is just all over the place, but it's 340 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 1: funny for the time in a world where movies could 341 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 1: just be fun for the sake of being fun, where 342 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 1: you didn't have to explain things. Essentially, it is about 343 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:16,399 Speaker 1: Devin Salwas's character, who is a stoner, has no ambitions 344 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,120 Speaker 1: in life, has a big crush on the girl who 345 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:22,360 Speaker 1: lives across the street, who is played by Jessica Alba. 346 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 1: He gets possessed by this demonic force where he is 347 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 1: no longer able to control his hand, and his hand 348 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 1: just wants to kill people. That's pretty much it. He 349 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 1: kills his best friends, they come back as zombies, and 350 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 1: it's all the highjinks they get into together. It is 351 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: a very animated stoner comedy from the nineties that is 352 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 1: so so nineties. And I think this is a movie 353 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,880 Speaker 1: that will not benefit from a remake. It wouldn't benefit 354 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: from a sequel or a prequel because I don't think 355 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 1: it was a big enough movie to really get people 356 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,639 Speaker 1: caring about it. There are some movies that should just 357 00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:00,199 Speaker 1: be let be, don't mess with them. They were good 358 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,520 Speaker 1: for the times. I don't want to tarnish the memory 359 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,879 Speaker 1: of this movie, so I am definitely gonna skip it. 360 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:10,959 Speaker 1: Next up on the Ducket, Denzel Washington revealed that he 361 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 1: is going to star in Black Panther three. When I 362 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: first thought about this, I thought that was immediate ticket, 363 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: and then I think more about it. Denzel Washington in 364 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,040 Speaker 1: a Black Panther three movie that I really didn't know 365 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 1: where they were on developing this movie, but he said. 366 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:29,920 Speaker 1: Ryan Kugler, who is the director of one and two 367 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 1: in the Black Panther franchise, is currently writing a role 368 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: for Denzel. I immediately was like, oh, yes, this is 369 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 1: an immediate Yes, I'd buy a ticket to this, And 370 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 1: then I thought about whenever the MCU brought in one 371 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 1: of the best actors of our generation and completely wasted him, 372 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 1: and that was Christian Bale as Gore, the god butcher 373 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: in Thor, Love and Thunder. Now, Ryan Kugler is a 374 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:57,439 Speaker 1: much better director than in Taikoba Titi, who I feel 375 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:01,479 Speaker 1: has just after Ragnarok and him having success with that 376 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 1: movie and being able to do another Thor movie and 377 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,679 Speaker 1: really now being able to do any movie he wants 378 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 1: to direct, at least in his world of like comedy, 379 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:14,360 Speaker 1: and I think he really wanted to tank the character. 380 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 1: I almost feel like that movie was a bit of 381 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,160 Speaker 1: a joke to him, thinking I'll just do whatever I want. 382 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 1: They can't help me know that. He took one of 383 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,439 Speaker 1: the best actors, Christian Bale, who has been in a 384 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: comic book movie. He has been Batman. But I feel 385 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:32,880 Speaker 1: like Christopher Nolan's Batman is a much different world than 386 00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 1: anything in the MCU. And if there was anything in 387 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: the MCU that I would compare it to, it would 388 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 1: be Black Panther because it's a little bit more set 389 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 1: with a serious dramatic tone, especially with all that happened 390 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 1: in the real world that had to mirror itself onto 391 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,399 Speaker 1: the plot of Black Panther two. But I just fear 392 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:55,200 Speaker 1: that an actor of his caliber just doesn't compute in 393 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: the MCU. As much as you think, oh, yeah, you 394 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,719 Speaker 1: put a really great actor in the MCU, it's going 395 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:02,919 Speaker 1: to be a success, I don't think that is a 396 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: guarantee because there is a different method of acting required 397 00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:13,439 Speaker 1: for MCU movies. There just is. Just because you're a 398 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,679 Speaker 1: great actor doesn't mean you are a great actor in 399 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 1: the MCU. And what you see is a lot of 400 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 1: the people who had success in the MCU times struggle 401 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 1: crossing back over into having a career out of these 402 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:30,120 Speaker 1: superhero movies because you could be so good in these 403 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:34,440 Speaker 1: and so typecast know exactly how to play all these characters, 404 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 1: create these larger than life people that only exist in 405 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: the pages of comic books and on the big screen 406 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:45,560 Speaker 1: inside of a franchise that has just a dedicated fan base. 407 00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 1: But outside of that, sometimes it's hard to get taken seriously. 408 00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: And I think the reverse of that is also an 409 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,959 Speaker 1: issue that sometimes you can have an actor who is 410 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 1: so good at all these things. Denzel was out here 411 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,439 Speaker 1: probably going to get an Oscar nomination for Glad eight 412 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 1: or two. Haven't even seen it yet, but it just 413 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 1: seems like from what people have been saying, he's going 414 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:07,400 Speaker 1: to get another Oscar nomination and add to his collection 415 00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:10,720 Speaker 1: of Oscars. And he even said that he is going 416 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:14,199 Speaker 1: to retire after this next batch of films, Black Panther 417 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 1: three being one of them. He's going to be in 418 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,880 Speaker 1: a movie about a military leader named Hannibal. He's going 419 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 1: to be in a new film with Steve McQueen, a 420 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 1: film adaptation of Othello I think that's how you say it. 421 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: And he's going to be in a King Lear project, 422 00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:31,760 Speaker 1: and after that probably seeing Denzel dip out, which isn't 423 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:35,400 Speaker 1: too surprising giving that as one, two, three, four five 424 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: projects movies can take one sometimes one and a half 425 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,680 Speaker 1: to two years, so you're looking at about a decade 426 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:47,000 Speaker 1: of working right there. Denzel is currently sixty nine years old, 427 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: so yeah, I could see him around eighty saying yeah, 428 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:51,639 Speaker 1: it's time to hang it up. So that could be 429 00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:54,120 Speaker 1: the next decade for him. Maybe he does another one 430 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: or two after that, but I could see him having 431 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,200 Speaker 1: a good next decade and then saying, hey, I've had 432 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 1: my run. I have all these oscars. There's nothing else 433 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: I need to say. There's nothing else I need to 434 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 1: do to prove anything to people. Some other actors I 435 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,720 Speaker 1: think should retire Harrison Ford and I know I'm excited 436 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,640 Speaker 1: for him to be in this next Captain American movie, 437 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,360 Speaker 1: but dude is eighty two. I feel like he has 438 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 1: earned the respect, made the funny, been so many iconic 439 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 1: over his life, from Indiana Jones to Hans Solo, Blade Runner, 440 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 1: all these things that he has done. I think he 441 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: would leave behind such a great legacy if he retired 442 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,880 Speaker 1: within the next year or two. Tom Hanks, I also 443 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:38,160 Speaker 1: think he should retire, especially after seeing his very mediocre 444 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:41,440 Speaker 1: films in the last five with A Man called Otto 445 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:45,680 Speaker 1: being his best film so far, but no way rivaling 446 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,159 Speaker 1: anything he has done in his prime or even in 447 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 1: the two thousands, even in the twenty tens he was better. 448 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 1: And he's only sixty eight years old. But I think 449 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:58,120 Speaker 1: he should retire from acting and focus on directing. That's 450 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 1: kind of where I wanted to see Tom Hanks right now, 451 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: because if he keeps taking roles like here and movies 452 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:07,439 Speaker 1: with a very limited cast, which is really all he 453 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,200 Speaker 1: kind of does now. If you look at the last 454 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:12,639 Speaker 1: five movies he did, it is really just him a 455 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 1: co star and like a handful of supporting characters. I 456 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 1: want big Tom Hanks movies with elaborate casts. I think 457 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 1: the closest he got to that was in Elvis. So 458 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: I'd say Tom Hanks retired, just start directing some movies, 459 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:27,640 Speaker 1: throw your sons in there and call out a day. 460 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 1: I also think I don't know how he hasn't retired 461 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:33,360 Speaker 1: at this point, but Clint Eastwood, he's ninety four years 462 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 1: old and for the most part. He's just a director now, 463 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 1: but there are a lot of movies still that he 464 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 1: directs and stars in. At ninety four years old. I 465 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:47,119 Speaker 1: just think that he is set on not slowing down 466 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:50,879 Speaker 1: because he believes that once you've slowed down, that is 467 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 1: kind of punching your ticket. But man, dude looks tired 468 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 1: ninety four years old. What a legacy he has had. 469 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:00,080 Speaker 1: I think you should enjoy it. I don't really I 470 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 1: want to see new Clint Eastwood movies anymore, especially when 471 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 1: it looks like it's so detrimental to his health. But 472 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:07,880 Speaker 1: that's what he likes to do. I just couldn't imagine 473 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,919 Speaker 1: myself at ninety four years old still wanting to work. 474 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:14,159 Speaker 1: And I guess being able to make movies is a 475 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 1: dream and probably one of the coolest jobs. At the 476 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 1: level that he is at, where he calls all the shots, 477 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:23,160 Speaker 1: he can make any movie he wants. But man, I'm 478 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 1: calling it quits. So for that reason, back to Denzel, 479 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 1: I don't think I am an immediate ticket for this movie. 480 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 1: I don't really know the direction they are going to 481 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 1: go in with the next Black Panther movie. And I 482 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:39,679 Speaker 1: think the reason Part two was so impactful was because 483 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:44,200 Speaker 1: of the death of Chadwick Boseman. Now, unless Danzel is 484 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 1: going to come in and so now becoming the new 485 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:50,199 Speaker 1: Black Panther, maybe I'm in. Could you imagine Black Panther 486 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 1: dropping the F word like Denzel does now that I 487 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,640 Speaker 1: would buy a ticket for. But I think as of now, 488 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 1: when I really think about it, Denzel and Black Panther three, 489 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 1: As of now, I'm gonna skip it. All right. I 490 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 1: got a couple more things here to talk about. Ice 491 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:12,919 Speaker 1: Age six is in production with the original cast returning. Okay, 492 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:15,920 Speaker 1: why didn't y'all tell me that they made ice Age 493 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,360 Speaker 1: three through five? If you would have put a gun 494 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:20,640 Speaker 1: to my head a week ago before this news came 495 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 1: out and said how many Ice Age movies are there, 496 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 1: I'd probably say two. I don't really remember anything past 497 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 1: Ice Age two, and I think this was a franchise 498 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 1: that really got run into the ground. But now that 499 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:37,119 Speaker 1: Disney has bought Ice Age, oh man, they're about to 500 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,160 Speaker 1: further run it into the ground. Ice Age one came 501 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 1: out back in two thousand and two, and that was 502 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:46,359 Speaker 1: a peak time for DVDs where you could have a 503 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 1: movie come out in theaters do really well but where 504 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:54,720 Speaker 1: it became ingrained into American culture was through those DVD 505 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 1: sales rentals raning movies back in the day, which oh, 506 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 1: there's still a red box by my house that apparently 507 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: you could just go in and ask certain locations that 508 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 1: have red boxes and you could take the whole thing 509 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 1: because they're having to pay to have these removed. They 510 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 1: don't want to pay to have them removed. Supposedly depending 511 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,960 Speaker 1: on the location that it's at. Some are at Walgreens, 512 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 1: a lot of them are at Walgreens or CBS, but 513 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:19,879 Speaker 1: apparently there are some that are like built into the 514 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:22,200 Speaker 1: structures of certain buildings, so they're just going to be 515 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 1: there forever. But apparently you can go and say, hey, 516 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:25,919 Speaker 1: I want to take this off your hands, because I 517 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 1: did see somebody on Reddit with a red box in 518 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:30,680 Speaker 1: their hand. What I do want to do is they're 519 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 1: still for the most part working, and you can go 520 00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,680 Speaker 1: and just get a free DVD because if you put 521 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:38,919 Speaker 1: your credit card in to pay for it, it's not 522 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 1: connected to any business anymore. They're completely bankrupt. But back 523 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 1: at a time when DVDs were just king in the 524 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 1: early two thousands, Ice Age was one of those movies 525 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 1: that I just remember watching so much because it was 526 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 1: one of like the four DVDs that we had at 527 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,440 Speaker 1: our our school when we would have movie day. Ice 528 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:59,359 Speaker 1: Age two came out in two thousand and six, and 529 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 1: after that, I don't really know, but John liqu was 530 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 1: almost coming back, Ray Romano's coming back, Dennis Leary. For me, 531 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:09,960 Speaker 1: this isn't easy, I'm gonna skip it. And I don't 532 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:14,880 Speaker 1: really feel like Ice Age is a highly praised franchise. 533 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:18,639 Speaker 1: So unless the goal of these movies is to introduce 534 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 1: them to a new audience that I really don't think 535 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 1: kids now are going to get or really care about. 536 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 1: Unless you bring in some gen z actors to voice 537 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:31,119 Speaker 1: some of these characters, I don't see this movie doing 538 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:34,160 Speaker 1: particularly well. And also I don't really want to live 539 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 1: in a world where Disney owns every animated franchise, which 540 00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 1: even back in the day, I feel like a lot 541 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 1: of people assumed anything that was animated, anything that was 542 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 1: like an animal story, you just kind of assumed it 543 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:52,000 Speaker 1: was Disney. Even some people think that Shrek is Disney, 544 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: but it's not as DreamWorks. So I think the big 545 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 1: animation studios that are left have just been competing with 546 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 1: Disney for so long, and now Disney is taking over 547 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,120 Speaker 1: some of these properties that they bought up whenever twentieth 548 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:09,720 Speaker 1: Century Fox went under. So I just don't want to 549 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:13,479 Speaker 1: live in a world where everything is a Disney character, 550 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 1: because as we see now with Disney, their model really 551 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 1: isn't hey, let's make some new, fun, innovative characters and 552 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 1: movie franchises and take risks. No, they just want to 553 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:27,719 Speaker 1: do sequels and sequels on movies that are gonna make 554 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 1: them billions of dollars. So I don't want to see 555 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: that model spread out over all of these franchises. And 556 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 1: really we do not need a nice Age six all right? 557 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: And last stup, god Zella Minus one. The team behind 558 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 1: that movie is making a follow up. Takashi Yamazaki, who 559 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 1: directed that movie, who I love him as a director. 560 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: I love that he is so much a believer in 561 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 1: American movies that when he got interviewed at the Oscars 562 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 1: about what are his favorite movies of all time, he 563 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 1: listed big, fun movies like Back to the Future, which 564 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 1: most times when you ask any director, it's always something 565 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 1: very niche and specific and old and indie. But to 566 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 1: hear the creators of God's Ella minus one go on 567 00:30:15,240 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 1: the red carpet and say their favorite movies of all 568 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 1: time were Alien, Blade, Runner, Jurassic Park, and Back to 569 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 1: the Future. Just really inspired me to have filmmakers who 570 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 1: are innovative in their own right believe in just big, 571 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 1: fun Hollywood movies that at the core of what movies 572 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 1: are the most essential to us, like those are the foundation. 573 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:43,600 Speaker 1: We can't continue on in cinema without having movies like that. 574 00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: And I know everybody wants to win an Oscar, to 575 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 1: have a little Indie darling, to have something that's really 576 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 1: sophisticated and mind altering to people's lives in that way. 577 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 1: But there's also so much greatness in creating the next 578 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: Jurassic Park, in creating the next Back to the Future, 579 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 1: that I'm glad there are still minds out there looking 580 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 1: to make movies like that to be impactful and hopefully 581 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 1: bringing on a new ip. And I know I'm talking 582 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:12,719 Speaker 1: about the team behind Godzilla Minus one, which has one 583 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 1: of the biggest just numbers of movies inside of this 584 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 1: franchise's like sixty Godzilla movies. But still there is that 585 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: need to create these big Hollywood blockbusters. So for that reason, 586 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 1: I am all in on whatever they're cooking up. I 587 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 1: don't even need to hear the details to know I 588 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 1: am buying a ticket to that. All right, I'll come 589 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: back and give my spoiler free review of A Real Pain, 590 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:36,960 Speaker 1: and in the trailer park we'll talk about the new 591 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:41,440 Speaker 1: Christmas comedy with Jack Black and Post Malone called Dear Santa. 592 00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 1: Let's get into it now. A spoiler free movie review 593 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 1: of A Real Pain starring Kirion Colkin and Jesse Eisenberg, 594 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:54,160 Speaker 1: also written and directed by Jesse Eisenberg. This is what 595 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:58,080 Speaker 1: I'm going to call a no notes review, and it 596 00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 1: has a lot to do this movie, which i'll get into. 597 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 1: I don't know how emotional I'm gonna get during this review, 598 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:07,160 Speaker 1: but for those watching on YouTube, I usually have this 599 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,960 Speaker 1: iPad right in front of me. You can't see it, 600 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:11,719 Speaker 1: but I'm usually looking down at it because I make 601 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:13,440 Speaker 1: a lot of notes about all the movie reviews I do. 602 00:32:13,520 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 1: Because I want to give my most knowledgeable approach to 603 00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 1: every single movie review, even though I don't get a 604 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: whole lot into, like all the technical aspects and what 605 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 1: like a real acclaimed movie critic would talk about. I 606 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 1: want to be prepared so it doesn't seem like I 607 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 1: just come on here and go off the fly, go 608 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 1: on whatever, and just like spit things out because I 609 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 1: like to be prepared, because I think it's important for 610 00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: me doing this show and for you listening that I 611 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 1: give a crap about what I'm doing. I know what 612 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:47,320 Speaker 1: I'm talking about, even though I feel a lot of 613 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 1: my reviews come from pure emotion that I think that 614 00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:53,920 Speaker 1: is how I approach movie reviews, how movies make me feel, 615 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:56,239 Speaker 1: because I know that that is my truth. What I 616 00:32:56,280 --> 00:32:59,360 Speaker 1: heard one time Quentin Tarantino talking about one of his 617 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,240 Speaker 1: favorite movie reviewers, or his favorite movie reviewer of all time, 618 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 1: who he asked why she never wrote a book or 619 00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 1: talked about it more, and she was like, because I 620 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:12,280 Speaker 1: give a piece of myself away in every single movie 621 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 1: review I do. And that is what I like to 622 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:17,640 Speaker 1: do here, because on the surface, this is a movie 623 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 1: podcast where I come on here, talk about mood reviews, 624 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 1: make fun of movies, rise up, maybe glaze some movies 625 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:27,520 Speaker 1: here and there. But I also like to give you 626 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 1: a little bit of myself because talking about movies is 627 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 1: talking about life. And I think if I could get 628 00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:35,480 Speaker 1: through to some people who are maybe hesitanting about checking 629 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 1: out the podcast, thinking, ah, I don't watch movies, like 630 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: movies are dead. I don't need to do that just 631 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 1: because you don't watch movies, that's like saying you don't 632 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 1: want to experience life. Sometimes movies unearthed things that I 633 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 1: didn't know was like built up inside of me, And 634 00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 1: that is exactly what A real pain did. It was 635 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 1: almost like it reminded me of when I'd be cooking 636 00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 1: out with my dad and he never used charcoal. He 637 00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:00,960 Speaker 1: would always use real wood, take forever to burn. It 638 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 1: always had to add an hour to the cook time 639 00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 1: whenever we were supposed to start, but it would burn forever, 640 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 1: and sometimes into the night. When we're gonna put out 641 00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:11,360 Speaker 1: the fire, you think it's completely out, and then you 642 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 1: move it just a little bit, move it a little 643 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 1: bit more, and suddenly this big, roaring fire is happening 644 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:18,440 Speaker 1: all again, just because you kind of picked at it 645 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:20,880 Speaker 1: a little bit. I feel like that is what this 646 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 1: movie did to me. And the reason I have a 647 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:27,440 Speaker 1: no notes review is because I feel like, when I 648 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 1: think about these characters and what it just really struck 649 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:34,279 Speaker 1: a chord with. You have two very opposite people here. 650 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 1: Jesse Eisenberg plays a character named David Harry and Cochin 651 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:40,839 Speaker 1: plays a character named Benji. They are cousins. They are 652 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 1: at this point and they're like mid to late thirties 653 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 1: where they're kind of had a falling out, and you 654 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,799 Speaker 1: learn more and more details about their relationship as the 655 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 1: movie unfolds. But the movie starts with them going on 656 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 1: a trip because their grandmother just died. They're going to 657 00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,319 Speaker 1: poll In and it's the first time they've seen each 658 00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:58,839 Speaker 1: other in a very long time. And what I loved 659 00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:02,120 Speaker 1: about the start of this movie is within five minutes, 660 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:04,880 Speaker 1: you know all the details about these characters that you 661 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 1: need to know. And that was a really strong opening 662 00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 1: because starts out with Jesse Eisenberg's character driving to the airport. 663 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 1: He's in an uber and he calls his cousin like 664 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:17,719 Speaker 1: five times because he is so anxious and just telling them, Hey, 665 00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:19,839 Speaker 1: there's traffick here. If you haven't left yet, I hope 666 00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,000 Speaker 1: you've left by now, Hey calling you again. Don't want 667 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 1: to leave it another message, And that tells you everything 668 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,400 Speaker 1: you need to know about that character, being very high stressed, 669 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:31,520 Speaker 1: just very tightly wound, worrying about every single detail on 670 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:35,240 Speaker 1: this trip. And then you have Kirie and Colkin's character, 671 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 1: who hasn't replied any of his phone calls, hasn't listened 672 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:41,040 Speaker 1: to any of his messages, and he's just hanging out 673 00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:43,239 Speaker 1: at the airport. He's like, Yeah, I've been here for 674 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,120 Speaker 1: like a couple hours, a few hours because I like 675 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,520 Speaker 1: to come here and people watch. So that really tells 676 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,680 Speaker 1: you the complete opposite nature of both of these characters. 677 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:54,520 Speaker 1: And the more and more you learn about each of them, 678 00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:57,400 Speaker 1: the more I realize how much I am like Jesse 679 00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:59,880 Speaker 1: Eisenberg's character. And I have to say, it didn't make 680 00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 1: me feel that good, because that's something I've been struggling 681 00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:08,680 Speaker 1: with recently, because being so anxious and worried about just 682 00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 1: the little parts of life and having things in order, 683 00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:15,840 Speaker 1: worrying about your job. In this movie, he is married, 684 00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 1: also has a very young son, So not at that 685 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 1: phase of my life yet. But all of the characteristics 686 00:36:22,120 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 1: of Jesse Eisenberg I saw myself in, and all the 687 00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 1: characteristics of Benji played by Kirie and Coulkin, I saw 688 00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 1: what I've been trying to achieve my entire adult life. 689 00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 1: And there's some moments in this movie where they butt 690 00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:39,680 Speaker 1: head so much because they're so different and you could 691 00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:41,359 Speaker 1: say they're like a no odd couple, but I feel 692 00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 1: like that's such an old reference to an old movie 693 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:46,080 Speaker 1: of like what's really clean and one's really messy? How 694 00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:48,640 Speaker 1: will they get together? It's not really like that. It's 695 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 1: more that Jesse Eisenberg has changed over the course of 696 00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 1: his life to be more adult because he is in 697 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:58,880 Speaker 1: his mid to late thirties, and Kirian Colkin is very 698 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:03,960 Speaker 1: much just still care free and has a much different 699 00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:07,200 Speaker 1: approach to life. Doesn't give a crap about anything, and 700 00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 1: that is something that I have strived to be a 701 00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 1: little bit more. I would love to be bore care free, 702 00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 1: and not just because I feel like I would have 703 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:16,440 Speaker 1: less stress. I think I would always carry the stress 704 00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 1: with me because that is something I've had since a 705 00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:21,320 Speaker 1: very young age. But I think there are moments in 706 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,000 Speaker 1: this movie that I thought, I want to be more 707 00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:28,279 Speaker 1: charismatic and be able to light a room up when 708 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:31,839 Speaker 1: I walk into it, and I feel that that is 709 00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:35,399 Speaker 1: something that I've just tried to do. But because over 710 00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:37,359 Speaker 1: the course of my life, I've always been known as 711 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 1: the quiet guy, which I hate. I mean, I come 712 00:37:40,239 --> 00:37:42,400 Speaker 1: on here and I talk forty five minutes to an 713 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 1: hour a week about movies and I could do that 714 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:47,399 Speaker 1: every single day and I would still be the quiet guy. 715 00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 1: And there was something about this movie bringing out Benji's 716 00:37:51,239 --> 00:37:55,319 Speaker 1: character of him being able to connect with people. That 717 00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:57,640 Speaker 1: is something I've been just trying to do my entire 718 00:37:57,719 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 1: life of if I ever we'll hang out with a 719 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:03,360 Speaker 1: new group of people, oh, I feel very tense. That 720 00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:05,759 Speaker 1: is hard for me to make new friends in a 721 00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:08,960 Speaker 1: small group big groups. I go on stage and tell jokes. 722 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:12,240 Speaker 1: That's no problem to me. I'm connecting that way because 723 00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:15,960 Speaker 1: to me, that doesn't feel real. You give me five 724 00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 1: hundred people, a thousand people, it doesn't matter. I've done 725 00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 1: that before. That is easy to me. But but connecting with 726 00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 1: just a small group of people, I can't do it. 727 00:38:23,080 --> 00:38:26,319 Speaker 1: And if I went to hang out with people like 728 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,920 Speaker 1: for a weekend and like hey, here's Mike, and you 729 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:32,319 Speaker 1: hang out for the entire weekend, I don't feel like 730 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:36,359 Speaker 1: I would bond with those people. And I feel that 731 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 1: that is something I've tried to do because I have 732 00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:42,520 Speaker 1: met people that I enjoy after just an hour a 733 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 1: meeting with them, and I want to be around them more. 734 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 1: I want to know what they have thoughts about and 735 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:51,960 Speaker 1: there are people I like so instantly that I always 736 00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:54,360 Speaker 1: wish that I could be that type of person. Some 737 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:56,279 Speaker 1: of my friends are those type of people who can 738 00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 1: just talk to anybody, strike up a conversation, and get 739 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:01,680 Speaker 1: all these he details out of people because they are 740 00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:05,239 Speaker 1: so warm and friendly and inviting. And there's a moment 741 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:09,319 Speaker 1: in this movie where Kirian Colkin learns something about the 742 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 1: other members of this tour group that they go on, 743 00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:13,359 Speaker 1: because they go on this trip to Poland, but they 744 00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 1: are joining this tour guide who has like a very 745 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:20,440 Speaker 1: interesting cast of people with him, and you have Kirian 746 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:23,759 Speaker 1: Colkin's character who is learning all these things about other 747 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:26,760 Speaker 1: people because he's genuinely curious. He likes talking to people, 748 00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,279 Speaker 1: and they all start to like him. Some of them 749 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 1: don't like him for that same reason, but some of 750 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:34,239 Speaker 1: them form like a really strong relationship with him, just 751 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 1: because he has that warm nature, that charismatic nature. Who 752 00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:41,760 Speaker 1: he is somebody who just comes into a room says 753 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:45,399 Speaker 1: what he says, and people connect with that. And I've 754 00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:48,160 Speaker 1: always wanted to do that because I feel, over the 755 00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:51,840 Speaker 1: course of my life that sometimes I feel that people 756 00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:54,799 Speaker 1: just don't like me, not just that they don't like me. 757 00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:58,799 Speaker 1: It's that I don't do enough things for people to 758 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 1: have an opinion on me, where I don't say a 759 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:03,759 Speaker 1: whole lot. I don't put a lot out there. So 760 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:05,719 Speaker 1: it's not that people don't like me because like I 761 00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 1: don't like that guy. It's just because I feel that 762 00:40:08,239 --> 00:40:11,840 Speaker 1: I kind of blend into the background sometimes that people 763 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 1: don't like me, but they also don't like they don't 764 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:17,880 Speaker 1: hate me, and I think that's almost worse. That is 765 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:21,359 Speaker 1: something I've just been fighting because, like I said, going 766 00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:24,760 Speaker 1: back to that example, if if you met people, spend 767 00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:28,200 Speaker 1: a weekend with them, I feel like I'm so forgettable 768 00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:31,160 Speaker 1: for that reason. And I think people genuinely think I'm 769 00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:34,920 Speaker 1: a nice person. I'm a nice guy, but there's just 770 00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:38,239 Speaker 1: something about not being able to connect with people in 771 00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:41,160 Speaker 1: that way that I've been striving to do my entire 772 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:43,880 Speaker 1: adult life, maybe even since I was a teenager, Like 773 00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:46,399 Speaker 1: I didn't have friends then, but I feel like even 774 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:49,440 Speaker 1: growing up now, like I just want to have that. 775 00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:53,080 Speaker 1: And there are moments in this movie where it really 776 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:55,759 Speaker 1: was like, did they make this movie just for me? 777 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:59,239 Speaker 1: Jesse Eisenberg, did you like hack into my computer and 778 00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:02,319 Speaker 1: find all my journals and all my notes and listen 779 00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 1: to this podcast. Of all these things I've struggled with, 780 00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:08,920 Speaker 1: and I haven't watched a movie that just nailed that 781 00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:11,560 Speaker 1: aspect of my life, because this is probably something I 782 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:14,960 Speaker 1: should talk about in therapy, but it just really struck 783 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,759 Speaker 1: a chord with me and unnersed something in me that 784 00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:22,359 Speaker 1: I really felt some type of way after watching this movie, 785 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:26,560 Speaker 1: thinking more and more about just this year I've been 786 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:29,920 Speaker 1: struggling with this and thinking this, and to see it 787 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 1: play out in this way and to see it that 788 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:36,200 Speaker 1: it is something that other people struggle with was really 789 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:38,360 Speaker 1: something I don't even want to say refreshing, but just 790 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:41,200 Speaker 1: something I needed to know that there are other people 791 00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:44,279 Speaker 1: out there who are like this. Like all my entire life, 792 00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:47,480 Speaker 1: I've been a David and I've just been trying to 793 00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:51,000 Speaker 1: be a Benji. And then getting back to the movie 794 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:54,759 Speaker 1: a little bit, I think the reason this message came 795 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:57,640 Speaker 1: across so well is because they are both fantastic actors. 796 00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 1: Jesse Eisenberg, I feel, has been a little little bit typecast. 797 00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:03,279 Speaker 1: I feel like he's gotten away from it now. But 798 00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:06,400 Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerberg that he played him in the Social Network 799 00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:08,960 Speaker 1: and that was like his role when I think of 800 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:13,400 Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerberg, I think of Jesse Eisenberg, and then from there, 801 00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:15,560 Speaker 1: I also think of him in Zombie Land, where he's 802 00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:18,800 Speaker 1: kind of the same person a little bit or an Adventureland, 803 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:21,759 Speaker 1: and throughout the course of his movies he is that 804 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 1: kind of nervous energy person, a very fast talker. I 805 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:27,560 Speaker 1: don't even know how you teach that, or how you 806 00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:29,879 Speaker 1: learn that, or how to take a character on like that, 807 00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:32,240 Speaker 1: Like I don't know if Brad Pitt could play somebody 808 00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:34,920 Speaker 1: like that, that's just not in his arsenal. But this 809 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:38,400 Speaker 1: is the role that was just perfectly Jesse Eisenberg. And 810 00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:41,400 Speaker 1: you have Kirie and Colkin, who is a fantastic actor. 811 00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:45,319 Speaker 1: You probably know him most as Mcolay Colchin's brother or 812 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,400 Speaker 1: if you watch Succession, which I never watched that show, 813 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:50,439 Speaker 1: but he's a really great actor, and I feel he's 814 00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 1: having success in his later part of his thirties and 815 00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:58,440 Speaker 1: forties now, and you can tell just how much every 816 00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 1: role he does now that he really kind of absorbs. 817 00:43:01,920 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 1: And I've heard stories of him being really great at 818 00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:07,279 Speaker 1: learning dialogue, like he would go onto the set of 819 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:11,040 Speaker 1: Succession and they would completely change all the lines on them, 820 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:13,359 Speaker 1: like Day of and like, oh, we changed all your lines, 821 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:15,480 Speaker 1: so you're gonna have to relearn these real quick. He 822 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:18,440 Speaker 1: would sit down in the makeup chair and by the 823 00:43:18,600 --> 00:43:21,279 Speaker 1: end of his makeup session he would already have him 824 00:43:21,320 --> 00:43:24,120 Speaker 1: figure it out. So there's something in his brain that 825 00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:29,120 Speaker 1: he can absorb lines and memorize them really well and 826 00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:32,879 Speaker 1: then completely nail the emotion because he has so much 827 00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:36,600 Speaker 1: emotion throughout this entire movie where he goes on the 828 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:39,799 Speaker 1: highest highs, where he's just wanting to have fun and 829 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:43,480 Speaker 1: doing things out of pocket and making funny jokes that 830 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:46,640 Speaker 1: aren't really jokes. So if you're into dark comedies, you'll 831 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:50,080 Speaker 1: very much be into his humor. You see more examples 832 00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:52,320 Speaker 1: of how different they are. There's one scene in particular 833 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:57,000 Speaker 1: where Benji wants to take kind of funny pictures at 834 00:43:57,000 --> 00:44:00,640 Speaker 1: a serious monument and Jesse Eisenberg character like, now, we 835 00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:03,680 Speaker 1: shouldn't do that. It feels disrespectful, but he starts doing 836 00:44:03,719 --> 00:44:06,480 Speaker 1: it anyway. Jesse Eisenberg's taking the pictures, but then everybody 837 00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:09,160 Speaker 1: else in the tour group joins in and it's a 838 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:12,480 Speaker 1: big fun moment, and then Jesse Eisenberg's character is just 839 00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 1: there taking the pictures, never gets in on the fund, 840 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:18,239 Speaker 1: so you see more of that throughout the movie. And 841 00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,840 Speaker 1: I think it's Kiri and Kolkin's ability to do drama 842 00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:25,240 Speaker 1: really well but also to have like this really good 843 00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:27,760 Speaker 1: comedic timing that I think he is going to get 844 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:30,960 Speaker 1: a nomination for Best Supporting Actor in this movie. I 845 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:33,239 Speaker 1: feel like this movie is also a shoe in to 846 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 1: get a Best Picture nomination because it feels very novel 847 00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:39,960 Speaker 1: to me. I haven't really seen a movie like this 848 00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:43,560 Speaker 1: where there's not some grand plot like what I told 849 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:46,120 Speaker 1: you earlier, that's the entire movie. They go on this trip, 850 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:50,040 Speaker 1: they have all these connections. There is a lot of dialogue, 851 00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:52,480 Speaker 1: but the dialogue is really important, and you have two 852 00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:56,560 Speaker 1: people who are just really great at having this chemistry 853 00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:58,719 Speaker 1: that even though they're cousins, they kind of feel like 854 00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:01,120 Speaker 1: brother So maybe a little bit too, I saw a 855 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 1: bit of my brother and myself in this because that's 856 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:07,120 Speaker 1: kind of our personalities, a little bit like I'm one way, 857 00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:09,920 Speaker 1: I would say very much, my brother is more of 858 00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 1: like Akiri and Kolkin in this movie, So maybe I 859 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:15,840 Speaker 1: saw some parallels there too, like even the trip itself, 860 00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:18,279 Speaker 1: because there are some really heavy moments where they go 861 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:23,680 Speaker 1: to concentration camps, and it takes this other emotional level 862 00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:26,120 Speaker 1: that I wasn't really expecting it to go on. So 863 00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 1: as you're feeling bad for both of these characters, you 864 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:32,080 Speaker 1: also feel bad for the world. And I haven't seen 865 00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:35,279 Speaker 1: a movie have this course of action from beginning to 866 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:38,280 Speaker 1: end and also only be an hour and twenty two minutes. 867 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 1: Like before you think twice about this movie, it is over. 868 00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:44,680 Speaker 1: So for a real pain, I give it four point 869 00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:48,520 Speaker 1: five out of five. I would say that point five 870 00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:52,160 Speaker 1: is more of the emotional impact that had on me, 871 00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:55,600 Speaker 1: So for any other person who doesn't struggle with that, 872 00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:58,399 Speaker 1: it's probably still a four out of five. A really 873 00:45:58,440 --> 00:46:00,920 Speaker 1: great movie, though definitely it out. If you want to 874 00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:03,120 Speaker 1: get in early on some of the movies they're going 875 00:46:03,200 --> 00:46:04,719 Speaker 1: to be nominated for Best Picture. 876 00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:12,000 Speaker 2: It's time to head down to movie Mike treylor Paul I. 877 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:15,360 Speaker 1: Gotta tell you something that blew my mind. Jack Black, 878 00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:17,319 Speaker 1: who's in this new movie called Dear Santa that we're 879 00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:20,840 Speaker 1: about to talk about. He is only worth fifty million 880 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:23,399 Speaker 1: dollars at least according to the Internet. Sometimes these things 881 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:26,759 Speaker 1: aren't completely right, but it kind of gives you a 882 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:30,600 Speaker 1: ballpark on what a celebrity is worth. You know, Jack 883 00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:34,799 Speaker 1: Black listed at fifty million dollars. I've been watching Jack 884 00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:38,520 Speaker 1: Black since I was a kid at School of Rock, 885 00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:44,080 Speaker 1: pick A, Destiny, Shallow, How He's been in so many 886 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,080 Speaker 1: movies and as a blade, I feel like he's only 887 00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 1: doing video game adaptations, massive movie star, tropic thunder like. 888 00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:53,759 Speaker 1: The list goes on and on for movies that Jack 889 00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:57,000 Speaker 1: Black has been in, and to only have a fifty 890 00:46:57,080 --> 00:47:00,920 Speaker 1: million dollar network seems absurd to me. Maybe some of 891 00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:04,359 Speaker 1: his movies have been smaller budget cult classics, but he's 892 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:06,960 Speaker 1: had some massive movies King Kong that was kind of 893 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:09,439 Speaker 1: like a differensona Jack Black. It just kind of blew 894 00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:12,719 Speaker 1: my mind that at the level he is that in 895 00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 1: his career having I guess he doesn't always have top 896 00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:19,839 Speaker 1: billing in movies. For the most part, he is a 897 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:22,360 Speaker 1: bankable movie star. I feel like it should be in the 898 00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:25,759 Speaker 1: one hundred like Doubles. At at least. That blew my mind. 899 00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:27,960 Speaker 1: But the movie we are here to talk about today 900 00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:31,560 Speaker 1: is Dear Santa, is coming out next week on Paramount Plus. Yes, 901 00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:34,840 Speaker 1: it is a straight to streaming platform movie, which I 902 00:47:34,880 --> 00:47:37,640 Speaker 1: don't feature in the trailer park a lot now that 903 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:40,359 Speaker 1: I think about it, and not by design. Really. It's 904 00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:45,560 Speaker 1: hard to build hype around a streaming movie now, but 905 00:47:45,560 --> 00:47:47,400 Speaker 1: they one caught my eye for a couple of reasons. 906 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:49,920 Speaker 1: One because I like Jack Black hasn't really been in 907 00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:53,040 Speaker 1: a great comedy recently. I feel like he's kind of 908 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:55,279 Speaker 1: in that stage of his career where he's just trying 909 00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:56,960 Speaker 1: to make some money. I think a lot of these 910 00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:59,080 Speaker 1: actors get to that point where they have been famous 911 00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:02,960 Speaker 1: for so long, maybe feel like I just wanna be 912 00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:05,600 Speaker 1: able to go in and do a good jump and 913 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:08,640 Speaker 1: make some money so I can leave behind a really 914 00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:11,880 Speaker 1: big nest egg for my family. And I can't be 915 00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:14,279 Speaker 1: mad at them for that. I can be mad at 916 00:48:14,320 --> 00:48:17,440 Speaker 1: them when they make me sit through mediocre movies, but 917 00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:20,080 Speaker 1: I can't be mad at them for securing that bag. 918 00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:23,240 Speaker 1: But what Dear Sanna is about to beat? A kid 919 00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:26,760 Speaker 1: who writes a letter to Santa innocent enough, except kid 920 00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:30,360 Speaker 1: not so bright. He misspells Sanna and he writes Satan. 921 00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:34,239 Speaker 1: So instead of getting his wishes to Sanna, Satan gets 922 00:48:34,280 --> 00:48:37,560 Speaker 1: his letters and grant some three wishes, and at the 923 00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:39,759 Speaker 1: end of those three wishes pretty much makes the deal 924 00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:41,719 Speaker 1: that hey You're gonna have an awesome life right now 925 00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:44,000 Speaker 1: while we're hanging out. But then I'm gonna take your soul. 926 00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:46,719 Speaker 1: Also in this movie, Keegan Michael Key, who is just 927 00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:49,759 Speaker 1: in everything since he's been in Key and Peel. If 928 00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:53,440 Speaker 1: there's any animated movie that comes out, Keegan Michael Key 929 00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:55,440 Speaker 1: is gonna be a voice on that. You also have 930 00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:58,440 Speaker 1: post Malon, which I'm gonna get into my entire breakdown 931 00:48:58,520 --> 00:49:01,399 Speaker 1: of his filmography. But right now, here's just a little 932 00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:04,520 Speaker 1: bit of the Dear Santa trailer. My friend are getting 933 00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:09,120 Speaker 1: three wishes. They stole that from me. By the way, 934 00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:11,400 Speaker 1: after you make your wishes, I'm taking your soul. 935 00:49:12,360 --> 00:49:14,000 Speaker 2: You ain't never had a friend like me. 936 00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:17,520 Speaker 1: Okay, that I may have stolen from Aladdin. Now we're 937 00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:20,760 Speaker 1: even let me show you a few of the things 938 00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:27,680 Speaker 1: that could do for you. Now, this movie has a 939 00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:30,400 Speaker 1: pretty low budget thirty million dollars, which isn't a whole 940 00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:32,560 Speaker 1: lot to work with. There. I imagine a lot of 941 00:49:32,600 --> 00:49:35,000 Speaker 1: that went to not even paying post Malone, but probably 942 00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:37,320 Speaker 1: paying Jack Black. I really want to see a larger 943 00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:40,480 Speaker 1: role here for post Malone. I'm not sure we're going 944 00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:42,279 Speaker 1: to get it here. It kind of feels like what 945 00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:44,360 Speaker 1: they featured so far in the trailer is really just 946 00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:47,200 Speaker 1: maybe an extended cameo, which is really all his filmography 947 00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:49,160 Speaker 1: has been up to this point. But I'll get into 948 00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:50,960 Speaker 1: more of that here in a second. It does look 949 00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:53,720 Speaker 1: a little cheap, though, and I'm having to look past 950 00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:56,320 Speaker 1: that because I don't want to sound like this curmudgeon 951 00:49:56,360 --> 00:49:59,200 Speaker 1: who hates on anything that resembles any kind of fun. 952 00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:02,359 Speaker 1: And when I look at this movie specifically and look 953 00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:04,719 Speaker 1: who's behind it, you have the Fairy Brothers who did 954 00:50:04,800 --> 00:50:07,160 Speaker 1: movies like Dumb and Dumber, who did a lot of 955 00:50:07,239 --> 00:50:09,600 Speaker 1: movies like the ones I mentioned earlier with Jack Black 956 00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:12,760 Speaker 1: Shallow how they've also are responsible for the Something about 957 00:50:12,800 --> 00:50:16,320 Speaker 1: Mary Stuck on You fever pitch earlier this year, Ricky 958 00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:19,960 Speaker 1: Stanicky movies like Me, Myself and Irene. They have a 959 00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:24,120 Speaker 1: large library of comedy movies. And if you look at 960 00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:29,439 Speaker 1: their comedy specifically, all those movies are stupid movies. Dumb 961 00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:32,799 Speaker 1: and Dumber on Paper is a stupid movie. And I 962 00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:36,640 Speaker 1: love how all the premises to their movies start. They're 963 00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:39,360 Speaker 1: about something that if you just saw it written on paper, 964 00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:41,560 Speaker 1: if you just read the script, you read the plots. 965 00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:44,959 Speaker 1: Synopsis that is funny. It is really hard to take 966 00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:47,920 Speaker 1: a plot synopsis that is funny and flesh it out 967 00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:51,040 Speaker 1: into an entire feature film. That is kind of how 968 00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:55,080 Speaker 1: I'm feeling about this movie. It sounds funny of just 969 00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:57,960 Speaker 1: to say, hey, what if a kid just misspelled something 970 00:50:57,960 --> 00:51:01,040 Speaker 1: and he wrote dear satan instead of dear. That sounds 971 00:51:01,080 --> 00:51:03,000 Speaker 1: like a funny idea. But I almost feel like when 972 00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:05,479 Speaker 1: they were starting to make this movie and thought, oh, man, 973 00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:08,799 Speaker 1: is this strong enough to make an entire film? And 974 00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:11,520 Speaker 1: I feel like me on any other day, if I 975 00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:13,360 Speaker 1: saw the trailer for this, I would rip it to 976 00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:15,279 Speaker 1: shreds and think, God, this is dumb, this is a 977 00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:18,279 Speaker 1: waste of time. But I started to consider all of 978 00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:21,520 Speaker 1: the pieces here. Jack Black, who really I feel like 979 00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:23,799 Speaker 1: he just wants to spread joy with this movie. He 980 00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:26,600 Speaker 1: wants to bring people things that are gonna make you 981 00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:29,160 Speaker 1: smile and gonna make you happy. And I'm okay with 982 00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:31,480 Speaker 1: it in this situation because it's only a thirty million 983 00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:34,640 Speaker 1: dollar movie. It's nothing crazy. And I do think we 984 00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:37,719 Speaker 1: have gotten away from movies just being allowed to be 985 00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,359 Speaker 1: fun for the sake of being fun, where you don't 986 00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:42,200 Speaker 1: have to think about him a whole lot, especially a 987 00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:45,239 Speaker 1: movie like this completely geared towards kids I do have. 988 00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:48,359 Speaker 1: There's still a little bit of me that can't get 989 00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:52,120 Speaker 1: over how bad this CGI looks. It looks in parts 990 00:51:52,160 --> 00:51:55,080 Speaker 1: of this trailer that Jack Black is not even there, 991 00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:59,520 Speaker 1: like he's entirely green screened into scenes where they maybe 992 00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:01,800 Speaker 1: I couldn't get him on set for a day, they filmed 993 00:52:01,800 --> 00:52:04,840 Speaker 1: the scene and then digitally put him into this scene, 994 00:52:05,520 --> 00:52:07,719 Speaker 1: and the makeup on his face even looks digital, which 995 00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:09,440 Speaker 1: is weird. That is an entire pet peeve I have 996 00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:15,040 Speaker 1: of movies now using CGI to CGI in things that 997 00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:16,520 Speaker 1: you could just go to the store and buy it, 998 00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:19,680 Speaker 1: and makes me just go insane. But I'm looking past 999 00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:22,279 Speaker 1: all that because I just want to be thinking back 1000 00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:25,480 Speaker 1: to me as a kid, and that is exactly where 1001 00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:28,080 Speaker 1: I put myself in this situation. If I was ten 1002 00:52:28,160 --> 00:52:30,920 Speaker 1: years old, maybe eight years old, and I saw the 1003 00:52:30,920 --> 00:52:34,080 Speaker 1: trailer for this movie, how would myself react to that? 1004 00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:35,960 Speaker 1: I think at that age, I would think this is 1005 00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:38,360 Speaker 1: hilarious and I would love it, and this would be 1006 00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:41,160 Speaker 1: a movie that I would watch at that time in 1007 00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:46,040 Speaker 1: my life and enjoy, and somebody older like me would say, ah, 1008 00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:48,640 Speaker 1: that's a bad movie. And this is gonna get bad reviews. 1009 00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:50,800 Speaker 1: I can guarantee you it's going to be a thirty 1010 00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:53,960 Speaker 1: to twenty percenter on the review site that I don't 1011 00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:55,920 Speaker 1: name because they don't want me a part of their 1012 00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:58,760 Speaker 1: review site. But the more I thought about The Fairly Brothers, 1013 00:52:58,880 --> 00:53:00,920 Speaker 1: and I thought it'd be un fair to say this 1014 00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:04,120 Speaker 1: looks stupid when I like some of their other stupid movies. 1015 00:53:04,480 --> 00:53:06,279 Speaker 1: I Love Dumb and Dumber. I put it in my 1016 00:53:06,800 --> 00:53:10,400 Speaker 1: Desert Island movie I Love Me Myself and Irene, And 1017 00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:14,000 Speaker 1: because when I first watched those movies as an impressionable 1018 00:53:14,520 --> 00:53:18,240 Speaker 1: kid teenager. Whenever I saw those movies, they were funny 1019 00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:20,960 Speaker 1: to me, and this movie is probably going to be 1020 00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:23,319 Speaker 1: funny to somebody. And if you look at some of 1021 00:53:23,320 --> 00:53:26,440 Speaker 1: the comedy elements in this trailer, you do see the 1022 00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:29,240 Speaker 1: Fairly Brothers in there. You can see their comedy there. 1023 00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:33,600 Speaker 1: And it's just us who haven't really aged with their films. 1024 00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:36,319 Speaker 1: But I do like that they are still committed to it, 1025 00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:39,560 Speaker 1: although I'm still really holding it against them how much 1026 00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:42,120 Speaker 1: they let me down on the Three Stooges movie that 1027 00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:43,879 Speaker 1: I thought was gonna be great, because I grew up 1028 00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:46,600 Speaker 1: loving the Three Stooges, even though they're way before my time. 1029 00:53:46,960 --> 00:53:48,719 Speaker 1: It was just the TV show my dad and I 1030 00:53:48,800 --> 00:53:50,520 Speaker 1: just bonded over and I was like, Oh, they're probably 1031 00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:53,359 Speaker 1: gonna make it into a movie. I hold that against them, 1032 00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:55,879 Speaker 1: and I hold Dumb and Dumber two. But looking back 1033 00:53:55,920 --> 00:53:57,839 Speaker 1: on some of their early work, I mean, Stuck on You, 1034 00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:00,319 Speaker 1: I thought was the funniest thing ever because it's such 1035 00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:03,840 Speaker 1: a dumb premise, and that's what they commit to, stupid 1036 00:54:03,840 --> 00:54:07,839 Speaker 1: premises and spending millions of dollars on them. So I 1037 00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:12,080 Speaker 1: do think we need directors like them who still want 1038 00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:16,080 Speaker 1: to bring that innocent joy to movies. Not every movie 1039 00:54:16,120 --> 00:54:19,520 Speaker 1: has to be serious, but I think you still have 1040 00:54:19,600 --> 00:54:24,080 Speaker 1: to take into consideration giving the audiences something worth paying 1041 00:54:24,120 --> 00:54:27,279 Speaker 1: for or something worth spending their time on if they 1042 00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:30,000 Speaker 1: already have this surface. So there is a fine line 1043 00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:32,080 Speaker 1: to walk between oh, it's just a fun movie, you 1044 00:54:32,120 --> 00:54:34,520 Speaker 1: don't have to think too much about it, but there's 1045 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:38,320 Speaker 1: still some artistry that has to go into it, actual writing, 1046 00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:42,520 Speaker 1: actual jokes, actual punchlines that are going to be memorable 1047 00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:45,160 Speaker 1: and going to be worthy of somebody's time. So it 1048 00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:47,440 Speaker 1: can just be fun, turn your brain off, don't think 1049 00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:50,000 Speaker 1: too much. About it, but there also has to be 1050 00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:53,160 Speaker 1: some intention there, because that is what actually makes it 1051 00:54:53,360 --> 00:54:56,000 Speaker 1: a good movie. And I can't really remember the last 1052 00:54:56,040 --> 00:54:59,200 Speaker 1: time I saw a good Paramount plus original. I think 1053 00:54:59,239 --> 00:55:01,640 Speaker 1: the last one I Want was a Good Burger Too, 1054 00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:03,920 Speaker 1: and that movie let me down. It felt like just 1055 00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:08,120 Speaker 1: a TV special. It was more just the nostalgia surrounding 1056 00:55:08,160 --> 00:55:11,440 Speaker 1: that cult classic that even peauked interest in me wanting 1057 00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:13,800 Speaker 1: to watch that movie. But I want to see post 1058 00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:15,920 Speaker 1: Malone have a little bit more of a role in 1059 00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:17,879 Speaker 1: this movie. And looking at all the movies he's done 1060 00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:20,800 Speaker 1: so far, I've seen them all. I've seen every single movie, 1061 00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:23,279 Speaker 1: and for the most part, they have really just been 1062 00:55:23,560 --> 00:55:26,520 Speaker 1: glorified cameos. I don't think he was really trying to 1063 00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:30,080 Speaker 1: be a legit actor. I would love him too. I 1064 00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:33,120 Speaker 1: think he gets off for things and it sounds fun 1065 00:55:33,160 --> 00:55:36,320 Speaker 1: to do. If I was that famous, that rich and famous, 1066 00:55:36,520 --> 00:55:40,520 Speaker 1: I would take every single offer to do anything like 1067 00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:43,200 Speaker 1: this because it's fun and it's awesome. But I've seen 1068 00:55:43,239 --> 00:55:46,040 Speaker 1: him in Spencer Confidential in twenty twenty, Wrath of Man, 1069 00:55:46,080 --> 00:55:48,839 Speaker 1: which was probably my least favorite of all these Good 1070 00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:51,759 Speaker 1: Morning Teenage Muwan Ninja Turtles was great, but he had 1071 00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:56,000 Speaker 1: a very limited role. He was rightfully refille that last year. 1072 00:55:56,040 --> 00:55:58,760 Speaker 1: I think he should do more animated work up until 1073 00:55:58,760 --> 00:56:01,600 Speaker 1: this point. I think that's probably a best role so far. 1074 00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:05,040 Speaker 1: He was also in Roadhouse earlier this year, which that 1075 00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:08,160 Speaker 1: appearance let mean down a lot. He was heartily in 1076 00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:11,400 Speaker 1: that barely had a line. And the thing I enjoyed 1077 00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:14,759 Speaker 1: about this trailer is I was actually getting to see 1078 00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:17,719 Speaker 1: post Malone like he really is because he is playing himself. 1079 00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:21,680 Speaker 1: And I think that's what a director, a writer, or 1080 00:56:21,719 --> 00:56:25,200 Speaker 1: whoever is casting him in these movies need to pitch 1081 00:56:25,239 --> 00:56:27,840 Speaker 1: to him a role where he gets to be himself, 1082 00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:32,080 Speaker 1: because he gets typecast as the criminal because he is 1083 00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:35,040 Speaker 1: a dude, has a lot of tattoos, he looks really hardcore, 1084 00:56:35,440 --> 00:56:37,480 Speaker 1: but if you really know him and watch him on 1085 00:56:37,560 --> 00:56:41,600 Speaker 1: social media, he's a really kind and sweet guy and 1086 00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:44,120 Speaker 1: a funny guy and has this kind of I don't 1087 00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:49,240 Speaker 1: care energy and just on stage, it's very fun dancing around. 1088 00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:51,000 Speaker 1: And you see that a little bit in this trailer, 1089 00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:54,280 Speaker 1: and I think that is what would really translate onto 1090 00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:57,120 Speaker 1: the big screen into a movie. Capture that and put 1091 00:56:57,160 --> 00:56:59,160 Speaker 1: that in a movie, make his character be more like 1092 00:56:59,200 --> 00:57:01,080 Speaker 1: he is in real life, and I think it would 1093 00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:03,040 Speaker 1: be great, So I hope he has a little bit 1094 00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:06,120 Speaker 1: more screen time in this movie. Has a pretty significant 1095 00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:09,480 Speaker 1: amount of screen time in this trailer, which probably more 1096 00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:12,520 Speaker 1: than I've seen him from his appearance as another movie, 1097 00:57:12,520 --> 00:57:15,400 Speaker 1: so that is a good sign. But it kind of 1098 00:57:15,440 --> 00:57:18,760 Speaker 1: looks like they go to a post Malone concert he 1099 00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:22,160 Speaker 1: turns into post Malone Jack Black's character does, so I 1100 00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:25,040 Speaker 1: don't know how long that whole sequence will play out, 1101 00:57:25,040 --> 00:57:27,040 Speaker 1: but I hope it's pretty extensive. But again, in the 1102 00:57:27,040 --> 00:57:29,400 Speaker 1: movie is called Deer Santa and it's coming out next 1103 00:57:29,400 --> 00:57:33,400 Speaker 1: week on Paramount Plus on November twenty fifth. And that 1104 00:57:33,800 --> 00:57:37,560 Speaker 1: was this week's edition of Movie Lin Tramer Park and 1105 00:57:37,720 --> 00:57:39,960 Speaker 1: that is gonna do it for another episode here of 1106 00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:42,280 Speaker 1: the podcast. But before I go, I gotta give my 1107 00:57:42,360 --> 00:57:45,280 Speaker 1: listeners shout out of the week. This was a funny one. 1108 00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:48,600 Speaker 1: Shout out to Joel on X who wrote, just in 1109 00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:52,040 Speaker 1: case you missed it at Mike Distro, Red One is 1110 00:57:52,080 --> 00:57:56,960 Speaker 1: coming out on November fifty laughing crying emoji and Joel 1111 00:57:57,000 --> 00:58:00,760 Speaker 1: posted a picture of a giant display on Red Because 1112 00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:03,680 Speaker 1: I've been ripping that movie to shreds ever since I 1113 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:06,640 Speaker 1: featured into the trailer Park. It caught some strays last 1114 00:58:06,640 --> 00:58:08,720 Speaker 1: week during the trailer park, and I did not go 1115 00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:11,760 Speaker 1: watch it this weekend. I couldn't commit myself to it. 1116 00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:13,880 Speaker 1: I wanted to commit to the bit and go and 1117 00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:16,160 Speaker 1: watch it and rip it to shreds. That movie is 1118 00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:19,360 Speaker 1: two hours. I just couldn't put myself through it. There 1119 00:58:19,360 --> 00:58:22,240 Speaker 1: are some movies I just decide that I'm gonna protest. 1120 00:58:22,560 --> 00:58:25,320 Speaker 1: That was one this year. The Crow was one earlier 1121 00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:27,480 Speaker 1: this year, and I feel like when I commit to 1122 00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:30,440 Speaker 1: protesting a movie, I have to follow through with that 1123 00:58:30,560 --> 00:58:33,160 Speaker 1: bit and not go see that movie. Even though I 1124 00:58:33,240 --> 00:58:37,600 Speaker 1: am a movie reviewer, a movie enthusiast. I will watch 1125 00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:40,480 Speaker 1: it eventually when it comes out to streaming, or if 1126 00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:42,520 Speaker 1: we get to the holidays and I have nothing else 1127 00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:45,640 Speaker 1: to watch. I will commit to going to the theater then, 1128 00:58:45,720 --> 00:58:49,160 Speaker 1: but I won't give it the satisfaction of going opening 1129 00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:54,240 Speaker 1: weekend and proving to them that all these random advertisements 1130 00:58:54,520 --> 00:58:57,800 Speaker 1: worked on me because they didn't. But appreciate you join 1131 00:58:57,840 --> 00:59:00,480 Speaker 1: getting it on that joke and getting another A little 1132 00:59:00,560 --> 00:59:03,040 Speaker 1: jab in there for Red One shoving that movie down 1133 00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:05,760 Speaker 1: our throats. So if you want to see who got 1134 00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:08,640 Speaker 1: the last laugh, there I wouldn't even report their numbers, 1135 00:59:08,960 --> 00:59:11,480 Speaker 1: but go look at them, go look how it's in theaters, 1136 00:59:11,920 --> 00:59:14,440 Speaker 1: and then pay attention to the fallout that is going 1137 00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:17,200 Speaker 1: to come in the next couple weeks. And pay attention 1138 00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:21,160 Speaker 1: whenever they immediately slap that thing on Amazon and say 1139 00:59:21,480 --> 00:59:24,040 Speaker 1: Red one is now available to watch at home, and 1140 00:59:24,240 --> 00:59:26,440 Speaker 1: then see how the Rock is going to react and 1141 00:59:26,480 --> 00:59:27,760 Speaker 1: what his next role is going to be. But I 1142 00:59:27,760 --> 00:59:29,360 Speaker 1: guess M one to two is coming out soon too, 1143 00:59:29,680 --> 00:59:31,400 Speaker 1: so I think it'll be all right. So thank you 1144 00:59:31,480 --> 00:59:34,680 Speaker 1: Joel for sending that in. Appreciate you for listening. Appreciate 1145 00:59:34,720 --> 00:59:37,200 Speaker 1: you all for listening, for spending any amount of time 1146 00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:38,760 Speaker 1: with me, especially if you've made it to the end 1147 00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:41,160 Speaker 1: of this podcast. Thank you so much from the bottom 1148 00:59:41,160 --> 00:59:44,200 Speaker 1: of my heart. And until next time, go out and 1149 00:59:44,280 --> 00:59:47,800 Speaker 1: watch good movies and I will talk to you here.
