Speaker 1: Welcome to Movie Crush, a production of I Heart Radio.
Speaker 1: Hello everybody, and welcome to many Crushes. Hello Minis, Yes,
Speaker 1: hello Minis. We're kind of in a different room today,
Speaker 1: Yes we are. This is a little weird. Uh well,
Speaker 1: I was about to say we aren't usually in the
Speaker 1: same room, but that's not true at all. We're always
Speaker 1: in the same room, but we're usually in the little
Speaker 1: tiny I still call the stuff you should know studio
Speaker 1: it is, but that is what it is. You know,
Speaker 1: it's technically others others you do make use of it, chuck,
Speaker 1: but it is. We named all it's called Bowie. Dumb names.
Speaker 1: They're not dumb names, Chuck, their great names. And I
Speaker 1: came up with those names, sir, did you really Yeah,
Speaker 1: you came up with all the names, wasn't that was
Speaker 1: Bowie and Eno, and then there's well Bjork was named
Speaker 1: as a group on chat. And then Prince is the
Speaker 1: new studio and it happened right around the time he
Speaker 1: passed away, so we named it after him and his honor.
Speaker 1: They're all named after musical luminaries. We've got a conference
Speaker 1: room named Karen Carpenter, you know what, nol uh I
Speaker 1: like you and you're grade. So I like knowing that.
Speaker 1: I think I was attributing that to um other people.
Speaker 1: Do you just hate fun Chuck? Is that is that
Speaker 1: the dealing other people that were at this company? Uh?
Speaker 1: And I felt like that stank was still on. Oh no,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm Are you kidding me? No? I
Speaker 1: know exactly who you're talking about, and that wounds me
Speaker 1: to the quick, sir, So I'm really sorry. It's okay, man,
Speaker 1: I forgive you. We're in this. We everyone should know.
Speaker 1: We have these, uh that you call it a shipping containers.
Speaker 1: What it really is is what's it called called whisper rooms.
Speaker 1: Whisper rooms. So you two can be a podcaster because
Speaker 1: you can buy a whisper room, which is a little
Speaker 1: home studio. It's basically a kit that you get that's
Speaker 1: a little sound booth and it can be a little
Speaker 1: one person jam, that's true, or it can be one
Speaker 1: of these big daddies like the cool Tin Grand. You
Speaker 1: two can have a shipping container of your very own.
Speaker 1: Is that how much these big daddies are Tin Grand?
Speaker 1: But as far as the studio build out, it's quite
Speaker 1: cheaper totally. That's why we did it. We have these
Speaker 1: two used to be video studios that we when we
Speaker 1: stopped doing video, we just had these big rooms and
Speaker 1: to fit them out with you know, professional sound. You know,
Speaker 1: it's like or sixty seventy grand was more than that.
Speaker 1: It was like almost a hundred thousand dollars in sane.
Speaker 1: So we just decided to get these and build them
Speaker 1: in the rooms. And they're great. Yeah, I mean the
Speaker 1: sound is good. It's a little odd being in here
Speaker 1: with you. Well, it's no odder than it's bigger. This
Speaker 1: room that we're in right now, Chuck, is bigger than
Speaker 1: the one we're usually in. Oh no, it's much bigger.
Speaker 1: It's not the size that bothers me in all. That's
Speaker 1: the size that it's eyes doesn't count. Weird, the weirdness
Speaker 1: of it all. Yeah, it's got fuzzy walls. That's that's
Speaker 1: a little weird, I guess. But and then my chair sucks.
Speaker 1: These chairs are awful. You know what happened these chairs?
Speaker 1: You'll accidentally like kick the little thing on the bottom.
Speaker 1: Then I was in the chair. We'll just go. What
Speaker 1: I'm trying to do is sit up higher. They're not
Speaker 1: good chairs, It's true. And I'm trying to not tip
Speaker 1: backwards and none of it's working, and I'm sorry, dude,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Well, we'll get right on that. We'll get
Speaker 1: some better chairs. God shuck needs a high quality chair. Um.
Speaker 1: So I have listed here under the first thing we're
Speaker 1: doing today no is catch up we did not record
Speaker 1: last week and that we didn't. How are you my
Speaker 1: arms almost all the way better? Okay? Yeah, i'd say
Speaker 1: I'm at about now. I can twist better. You should
Speaker 1: not be able to twist. So when you've just been
Speaker 1: standing outside of doors waiting for people to come and
Speaker 1: open them for you, Well, mainly I've just been using
Speaker 1: my left arm instead. Oh that's right. Yeah, I do
Speaker 1: have two hands, but I typically turn. It's really awkward
Speaker 1: to turn the ignition in your car with your left
Speaker 1: hand because you got to reach over and very awkward. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: My my mom's sister, my aunt um, has cerebral palsy,
Speaker 1: and I remember growing up watching her drive and start
Speaker 1: her car with her left hand, and boy, if I
Speaker 1: remember correctly, she even shifted with her left hand. And
Speaker 1: I remember as a kid even thinking get an automatic,
Speaker 1: seriously shifting, wow, manual? Yeah, reaching over with the left hand,
Speaker 1: and that would be a lot, but she I think
Speaker 1: she did eventually get an automatic, but she also drove
Speaker 1: a karman Ghi at the time v W karman Gia.
Speaker 1: So I think she style over ease abuse, got it,
Speaker 1: which I can certainly get down with. I've been going
Speaker 1: on some dates back in the Dayton scene. We should
Speaker 1: have a new segment called Knowle's Love Life that isn't rhyme,
Speaker 1: though that's true, has already taken well, well, would shop
Speaker 1: that one? But yeah, you know, just would shop it,
Speaker 1: would workshop, would shop. You can would shop it too.
Speaker 1: Take it back to the wood shop. You ever heard that?
Speaker 1: I've heard take someone out behind the wood shed? Oh?
Speaker 1: Is that? Is that a sexy thing? Or is that
Speaker 1: a murder thing? Now? I think it's it's like you're
Speaker 1: gonna kick someone's ask taking behind the wood shop. Okay,
Speaker 1: I thought it was like maybe like kids smooching a
Speaker 1: girl behind the wood shed. But you could take something
Speaker 1: the wood shop and workshop it. I'm all about mixing metaphors. Man, man, Uh,
Speaker 1: why am I getting a phone call right now from
Speaker 1: plane out Illinois? It's it's gonna be a robot voice. Dude.
Speaker 1: Don't even getting a lot of those You ever get
Speaker 1: a call from your own number, Uh, not my own
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, one digit off usually yes, and how it's
Speaker 1: just it's called it's called spoofing. I don't know. I
Speaker 1: mean we talked about on stuff that I want you
Speaker 1: to know. I don't know exactly how they do it,
Speaker 1: but it's like meant to be like familiar or like
Speaker 1: you like weird. I should answer this, but it could
Speaker 1: be me from the future calling to warn me about
Speaker 1: an imminent disaster. Well, that is the first rule of
Speaker 1: the future is your phone goes up by one digit exactly.
Speaker 1: Everyone knows that, exactly. Know it's totally true, right, So
Speaker 1: tell me about dates? What what is that? What's a date?
Speaker 1: I Usually you meet at a pre agreed upon location,
Speaker 1: typically a bar or restaurant, sometimes coffee the less less
Speaker 1: less usual, and then, um, if it goes well, you
Speaker 1: do it, you repeat, you do it a second time
Speaker 1: until eventually you get married. Okay, yeah, how is usually
Speaker 1: on the third dates when the marriage proposal happened? How
Speaker 1: the date's been going good? Different ladies? Yeah, you know
Speaker 1: you're dating around a little bit. Yeah, there's even wonder
Speaker 1: what I would do in this new fangled world. It's weird.
Speaker 1: It's all I know. At this point, I wouldn't know
Speaker 1: how to meet a person. I r L. Now I'm
Speaker 1: on that part of my you know, sure my life
Speaker 1: is gone. What do you do? No, I'm kidding. It's
Speaker 1: just I don't know. It's just it's nice because it's
Speaker 1: like everyone you know, like, I don't know what dudes especially,
Speaker 1: I feel like hitting on girls is just like kind
Speaker 1: of likes not cute. It's I don't know, it was
Speaker 1: never cute as not cute it has ever been right now.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's one thing if you like, have a
Speaker 1: mutual friend or something and then you like ask, you know,
Speaker 1: ask you know, if you want to go grab a
Speaker 1: drink sometime or whatever. But when you just walk into
Speaker 1: a random place and see a cute girl, you don't
Speaker 1: just they don't want you to walk up to them.
Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't know what ladies tell me.
Speaker 1: Do you want us to walk up to you? I
Speaker 1: think you probably don't. Um. I think you can walk
Speaker 1: up to someone if you do it in the right way. Sure,
Speaker 1: that's true. But a friend of mine, a mutual friend
Speaker 1: of ours girlfriend made a post about how she often
Speaker 1: goes and does work by herself at at a bar,
Speaker 1: and she's constantly getting approached by dudes who think that
Speaker 1: because she's by herself, that's like an open past to like,
Speaker 1: you know, flirt or whatever, like hey, what are you
Speaker 1: what are you doing on that computer there? You know
Speaker 1: that I mean, but you know what, that goes both ways.
Speaker 1: There's also a very nice, kind way for that young
Speaker 1: woman to say, I appreciate this, but um, I'm actually
Speaker 1: trying to get some work done, so if you don't
Speaker 1: mind it, Like like Jennifer Lopez and out of Sight,
Speaker 1: that's wow. It's that great scene where all those dicks
Speaker 1: are hitting on her in the worst way, and she's
Speaker 1: very nice about it and says, you know, I'd prefer
Speaker 1: just to kind of sit here by myself if you
Speaker 1: don't mind. I think that's a very very good way
Speaker 1: to approach that. Chuck. I finally saw. I saw one
Speaker 1: episode of Fleabag out of context. It was like a
Speaker 1: season two, like mid season episode. Why would you do that?
Speaker 1: I didn't do it on purpose. My roommate and his
Speaker 1: girlfriend had been watching it and just binging it and
Speaker 1: loving it, and they were, you know, wanted to watch it,
Speaker 1: and I was like, you know, I want to sit
Speaker 1: in on this and to see what it's all about.
Speaker 1: I loved it. I loved every minute of it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: even out of contact, totally, even out of context, like
Speaker 1: it's like, well, you can still be charmed and get
Speaker 1: the show. Well, it was the one where there's an award.
Speaker 1: I don't want to spoil anything, but there's an award
Speaker 1: that's being given out and something happens to the award.
Speaker 1: So that one just in and of itself, just as
Speaker 1: a self contained thing. Well, it's funny too because and
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if your roommates told you the story
Speaker 1: there about the award bust. There's a piece of art
Speaker 1: like a yeah, and the whole that's a whole story,
Speaker 1: Yeah don't. I don't know it, but I'm really excited
Speaker 1: to dig in from the start. And I was so
Speaker 1: charmed by the whole thing. It's great. Man. She's the
Speaker 1: guy that plays the priest who's in Um. He's also
Speaker 1: in Sherlock. He plays Moriarty. I love that dude. He's
Speaker 1: in an episode of Black Mirror this season as well,
Speaker 1: and I watched that episode because the fact that he
Speaker 1: was in it. So I went and watched that single episode,
Speaker 1: and boy was that intense. Ye man, it's a good episode.
Speaker 1: Good God, so good that show man. I think the
Speaker 1: best thing about Black Mirror is every episode it's Twilight zony,
Speaker 1: which is great, but it's also grounded and the this
Speaker 1: could totally happen. No, Yeah, that's what makes it effective.
Speaker 1: That's sort of their little whole point. Yeah, it's their
Speaker 1: little hook for sure. Um an outlanditional no. No. And honestly,
Speaker 1: the thing that's cool about it too is a lot
Speaker 1: of times it takes a little while for you even
Speaker 1: to realize what the futuristic conceit is. It just feels
Speaker 1: like this is today and there's some little twist, some
Speaker 1: little update to technology. If that's like a little different
Speaker 1: than we have now, that makes it kind of go
Speaker 1: over to the next level or whatever. But have you
Speaker 1: seen Midsummer yet? Midsum No, I'm going to see that
Speaker 1: in an hour and twenty minutes. Y. I did some
Speaker 1: schedule arranging. I was supposed to record with Alex, but
Speaker 1: he agreed to push that to three, So I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go and then come back nice. Well dang, and I'm
Speaker 1: so excited. Um. I read a couple of little minor spoilers.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say, but it's it sounds pretty great.
Speaker 1: It sounds like it's a little divisive, but it sounds
Speaker 1: overallly people are loving it. Well, since you brought up
Speaker 1: the words divisive and the words uh, movie, I didn't
Speaker 1: say movie, but you you know, like I said loving it,
Speaker 1: that you said loving it. I'm gonna do two quickie
Speaker 1: little crushed to judgments here because I did see two
Speaker 1: films over the past week. I took my daughter to
Speaker 1: see Toy Story four and not realizing that it was
Speaker 1: in three D, and by the time I realized that
Speaker 1: that was like the only time available, you know, and
Speaker 1: you know how much I hate three D, but I'll
Speaker 1: tell you Noel three D and animated films was great. Well,
Speaker 1: those those movies are basically designed to be like rides
Speaker 1: or whatever. Yeah, I never had seen an animated film, said,
Speaker 1: I think the last one I saw was like, uh,
Speaker 1: In fact, I know it was the Alien movie with
Speaker 1: the first one of the new ones. What was that called,
Speaker 1: the one with like the Prometheus Prometheus, that's the one.
Speaker 1: That's the last movie I saw on three D. And
Speaker 1: I knew I didn't like three D, but I gave
Speaker 1: it a shot again and I hated it again, but
Speaker 1: I really liked it for animated. There's a big difference
Speaker 1: when it's when there's intention behind it, then it works.
Speaker 1: When it's an afterthought, it's just annoying. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: it totally works for this that My Story franchise. I
Speaker 1: don't know if you've seen the fourth one yet, but
Speaker 1: it just can do no wrong. It's hysterical and heartwarming
Speaker 1: and great in every way. And we had a really
Speaker 1: really good time. Uh. And then I also went and
Speaker 1: saw the film yesterday, The Beatles Movie, not the Beatles movie,
Speaker 1: you know. Well, it's just the one where the Beatles
Speaker 1: never existed except one guy knows about all their songs, right,
Speaker 1: And I quite enjoyed it. Yeah, it's a movie that,
Speaker 1: um is very divisive. Um, there's especially I'm not gonna
Speaker 1: give anything away at all, but there is a near
Speaker 1: the end that has proved to be really divisive. And
Speaker 1: I would urge anyone interested in seeing this movie to
Speaker 1: stay off the internet because it would be a bad,
Speaker 1: bad reveal for you if you really knew about this
Speaker 1: ahead of time. So divisive, like problematic or just like
Speaker 1: advice of like you're either like that was really neat
Speaker 1: or my god, I hated it and that ruined them.
Speaker 1: I liked it, um, I thought the whole movie was good.
Speaker 1: You really just gotta check your brain at the door.
Speaker 1: Do not second guess and overthink anything or start to
Speaker 1: think of plot holes or like a chuck the Beatles
Speaker 1: did exist. It's a fantasy. You really just gotta like
Speaker 1: go and try and enjoy what you're seeing in front
Speaker 1: of your face. It seems charming to me. I don't know,
Speaker 1: it's it didn't grab me right off, but with this,
Speaker 1: with this recommendation, I might check it out. You you
Speaker 1: could probably wait till the video if that's how you feel.
Speaker 1: It doesn't see exactly it is. It doesn't seem like
Speaker 1: a big screen necessity right as Toy Story four I
Speaker 1: bet was fantastic on the big screen and like the
Speaker 1: full experience, it was great, so great, all right, So nol,
Speaker 1: we've got a couple of social studies here. Social studies.
Speaker 1: Uh one. I feel terrible because the gentleman who posted
Speaker 1: this originally on the movie Crushers page, I said, hey,
Speaker 1: can I use this? This is great? He even responded
Speaker 1: with a sure thing, brother, anyone? So someone calls you brother.
Speaker 1: It's like an internet fist bump. It's very endearing. I
Speaker 1: think so, but I couldn't find it. I think he
Speaker 1: might have taken it off the movie crushers page because
Speaker 1: of that. And now I don't know who it was.
Speaker 1: So I will give you plenty of love later on
Speaker 1: good sir, But he uh, once, I'll find out who
Speaker 1: you are. But he he said this, what is your
Speaker 1: favorite all time movie franchise? And that is a great question.
Speaker 1: And I can't believe I haven't asked that yet. Do
Speaker 1: you have one off the Dome? Oh? Man? Um? And
Speaker 1: I would say it has to be contained, like you
Speaker 1: can't just say the Batman movies and that includes Tim
Speaker 1: Burton and Chris Nolan like you would probably have to
Speaker 1: say the Tim Burton Batman. I think that's fair, you know,
Speaker 1: I mean I I think one of the most successful
Speaker 1: franchises is The Avengers and all of that stuff. You know,
Speaker 1: your favorite No, it's tough, man, I'm not a big
Speaker 1: franchise guy, you know. It's uh what I've got Harry
Speaker 1: Potter and Lord of the Rings tattoos all over your body,
Speaker 1: That's true. I have face tattoos. I have the Little
Speaker 1: the Little the Harry Potter lightning bolt scar tattooed on
Speaker 1: my face? Do I even have the glasses tattooed around
Speaker 1: my eyes? Looks like a weird little Harry Potter raccoon.
Speaker 1: Um No, I'm not a franchise guy. All right, Well
Speaker 1: think about it. Um. I quite like the Lord of
Speaker 1: the Rings movies. I'm you go, you go, give me,
Speaker 1: give me a chance to domul this over all. Right,
Speaker 1: we'll just start reading some of these because I'm not
Speaker 1: sure I can name one off the dome. I mean,
Speaker 1: I like the Indiana Jones movies a lot. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: it's not my favorite franchise overall because one of them
Speaker 1: was okay and one of them sucked. Oh that's true.
Speaker 1: You gotta tack on the shitty Crystal Skull one. You
Speaker 1: can't just pick and choose here, like full franchise. You know,
Speaker 1: the Matrix was I thought great, The last two stunk.
Speaker 1: I mean, I like these John Wick movies. I've seen
Speaker 1: all three of them. Now that's a good point. I
Speaker 1: don't know if I'm gonna say it's my favorite. Oh
Speaker 1: you know what, I might go with Mission Impossible, although
Speaker 1: that one of those wasn't very good too. Has there
Speaker 1: ever been a franchise where they were all great? I
Speaker 1: think the Lord of the Rings movies. I know you're
Speaker 1: not a fan, man, but they're good films. They're competent
Speaker 1: fantasy films, all right. Heather Keenan says, uh, Romancing the
Speaker 1: Stone and I guess Jewel of the Nile is a
Speaker 1: movie in a sequel of franchise? Or do you need
Speaker 1: at least three? That's a really good questions. How many
Speaker 1: films does a franchise make? Yeah, I wonder if that
Speaker 1: someone has probably contemplated that online. I bet it's got
Speaker 1: to be three. Two isn't a franchise alright, But Heather,
Speaker 1: I loved those movies, certainly loved Romancing the Stone and
Speaker 1: it does hold up. She says, they probably don't, but
Speaker 1: Romancing the Stone is first or yeah, and that just
Speaker 1: adore that movie. Uh. Our friend Janna uh refa Gersta.
Speaker 1: That's a great name. I bet it's a Geman, says
Speaker 1: the Nolan Batman trilogy. Hands down. It's hard to argue
Speaker 1: those are all good. You know, they're very solid films.
Speaker 1: Not a sticker. What this is? My beIN voice sounds
Speaker 1: so kind of sounds like yeah, I was just about
Speaker 1: to say there's some Yoda in there. Oh goodness, and
Speaker 1: all that was delightful. Uh. Duffy Johnson says Star Wars
Speaker 1: with James Bond close second. Well, Bond, it's a fun
Speaker 1: franch it gets less fun as the movies go on.
Speaker 1: It gets a little more dour and kind like self series.
Speaker 1: But overall that's pretty great. Oh well, here you go.
Speaker 1: I've even said it already been. McVitie says Toy Story
Speaker 1: without a doubt. I mean sure, all four of those
Speaker 1: are great, like near flawless films in my opinion. J. F.
Speaker 1: Rager says, is for me, it's impossible to look past
Speaker 1: Star Wars. Yvon Bodette, our friend from Canada, says Indiana Jones. Okay,
Speaker 1: he didn't address the maybe he likes the Crystal skull.
Speaker 1: You never know. Well, it's like with Star Wars, you've
Speaker 1: got that slump in the middle with the prequels or whatever,
Speaker 1: does that render the whole thing like non contender? Although
Speaker 1: I think the third prequel was pretty good. I like
Speaker 1: that one, that's the one with the fire like with
Speaker 1: the lava fight and oh that was good. I liked
Speaker 1: parts of those movies for sure. I like you and McGregor.
Speaker 1: No nothing, he's just you got nothing, no no love,
Speaker 1: no love. Our old pal Quyla and says Lord of
Speaker 1: the Rings, Sorry, not sorry. Fantasy may not be Chuck, John,
Speaker 1: but the three Lord of the Rings movies are some
Speaker 1: of the best book adaptations ever made. Did she just
Speaker 1: shorten genre? No? I did, John, That's pretty great, Chuck
Speaker 1: Arrol pal Louis Silva's is a mystery science cedar at
Speaker 1: three thousand. Hm hmm. I wouldn't call that a movie franchise,
Speaker 1: but Louie is a good friend, so I mean they're great,
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna give my pass on that. I think
Speaker 1: that's that's fair. Daniel Jordan's is Back to the Future.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I love Back to the Future. Yeah, you
Speaker 1: said you didn't like the second one. I love this.
Speaker 1: Don't even remember them very much. There was a hoverboard, Chuck,
Speaker 1: he had a hoverboard. It was a skateboard that hovered.
Speaker 1: Our friend Eric Yohner says, if you could only count
Speaker 1: the first two in the franchise, well, Eric, that disqualifies you.
Speaker 1: Disqualifies you. Yeah, that's how that's said. Alien and the Terminator.
Speaker 1: Good point before they made a lot of those movies
Speaker 1: and you can't just can't discount three four five and say,
Speaker 1: how do you feel about the expression throw the baby
Speaker 1: out with the bath water? A little weird? Uh? I
Speaker 1: am not generally big on axioms like that. No, No,
Speaker 1: it's it's too visual for me. I just picture having
Speaker 1: a bucket with the baby in it and throwing it
Speaker 1: out like into the streets. Yeah, very mean spirited. Although
Speaker 1: we'll have to say, a dude, love the phrase youth
Speaker 1: has wasted on the young as I've aged, because boy,
Speaker 1: is that true. One of our oldest friends and she's
Speaker 1: are in top fan status. That's the thing. Is that
Speaker 1: like diamond medallion status. Well, there's a little diamond and
Speaker 1: it's his top fan. I think it's new. It must
Speaker 1: be new. It's on the Facebook group. Yeah, that's cool.
Speaker 1: So Melinda Bactalo says Indiana Jones, minus the last one.
Speaker 1: You can't do that. That's revisionist history. You guys are
Speaker 1: all peal. Brett Giles also a top fan. Have to
Speaker 1: go with the Bond movies. Tom Evans says Lord of
Speaker 1: the Rings. Jonathan Cooley says Star Wars. Boy, it's the same.
Speaker 1: One's kind of over and over. I'm kind of wondering.
Speaker 1: I was googling like franchises honestly, because like again, I'm
Speaker 1: not a franchise head, and it is kind of the
Speaker 1: same ones. I mean, not a Chaier, not not a
Speaker 1: not a not a chise head. Um. But no, Well,
Speaker 1: Fast and Furious isn't coming. People love those movies as
Speaker 1: corny as they are people not those people. I'm not
Speaker 1: those people either. I tried watching one on a plane.
Speaker 1: I couldn't even get through it on a plane. I
Speaker 1: think I saw the first one and that's it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't think I've seen anything since. I mean I
Speaker 1: think the people like there's like a Hammy kind of
Speaker 1: camaraderie between the characters or whatever. It doesn't take itself
Speaker 1: too seriously. I appreciate that aspect of it. But on
Speaker 1: a plane, where the bar of expectation for any entertainment
Speaker 1: is very low, I couldn't get through one. I guess
Speaker 1: that just means it's not for me. Agreed. Agreed. What
Speaker 1: about Rocky, those those latter day Rocky movies that people
Speaker 1: say are great, Well, I'm with you, know, because Rockies one, two,
Speaker 1: and three were great. Uh four was draw go oh,
Speaker 1: that one was okay, and then but then there's the
Speaker 1: Hockey Balboa one, and now there's the one Son movies.
Speaker 1: That's a big franchise, if that's what I've heard. Uh, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's made a billion dollars at the box office to
Speaker 1: date according to the franchise franchise. Yeah, good for him.
Speaker 1: I just saw there was a new Rambo movie coming out,
Speaker 1: Last Blood, Last Blood. You got your first blood and
Speaker 1: then your last blood. But he doesn't have a long hair.
Speaker 1: It's kind of weird. It's not to me, it's not
Speaker 1: Rambo unless he's got that hair. It's gotta be greasy too. Uh.
Speaker 1: Zack Pointer, top fan, our friend in Japan. It's Jackie
Speaker 1: Chan movies. He just rhymed a bunch of stuff. Just then. Yes,
Speaker 1: his movies have to be a franchise, all of them. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think you can do that. That's
Speaker 1: not franchise. He's definitely a brand, you know, as an individual.
Speaker 1: But there has to be story continuity between the movies
Speaker 1: for them to be a franchise. Totally oral Pal Brandon
Speaker 1: McDonald does mention Harry Potter but says Games is right
Speaker 1: up there. Those are pretty pretty cool. Actually, I haven't
Speaker 1: seen all of them, and I'm not a huge fan,
Speaker 1: but I've enjoyed. I enjoyed all of those though they
Speaker 1: were okay. Emily read those books and got into it
Speaker 1: at the time. She will dive into some. Yeah, she
Speaker 1: will dive into those occasionally. She read like some of these,
Speaker 1: you know, it's got to be like vacation reading. But
Speaker 1: she read the fifties Shades books and if you know
Speaker 1: Emily's stuff like that. No, no, no, let's that's what
Speaker 1: everyone said about those. But it turns out she is.
Speaker 1: Let me see here, all right, here's Nicole Park's arl pal.
Speaker 1: She says, fast and furious gives it some love. Grayson
Speaker 1: Heinrich says, blade, I didn't see those movies. I didn't either. Oh.
Speaker 1: I like the hell Boy movies a lot. I very
Speaker 1: much like those. There's three of those, aren't there? Are there?
Speaker 1: Only two? No? There was in There was a reboot
Speaker 1: recently with the dude from Stranger Things, and they got
Speaker 1: really got slammed. It did not get good reviews, and
Speaker 1: it kind of came and went. But the first two
Speaker 1: Hellboy movies that Gamotel Toro did her fantastic. But I
Speaker 1: think we agreed to does not make a franchise. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I did see those movies and I thought they were
Speaker 1: pretty good. Actually they're fun, Yeah for sure. Uh. And
Speaker 1: here we do have a Rocky fan, Dan Williams, he said,
Speaker 1: except Rocky five, And I forgot about Rocky five. That
Speaker 1: was not very good. Who was the the villain in
Speaker 1: that one? I don't remember. I think Rocky five was
Speaker 1: the one Russian with a Russian son his real life son.
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, okay, I know. Rocky five was
Speaker 1: the one where he's a trainer and trains that Tommy
Speaker 1: Morrison guy. Yeah, that one did suck, probably because Tommy
Speaker 1: Morrison he falls on hard times apparently after his accountant
Speaker 1: mismanages his finances. He staged a comeback of sorts by
Speaker 1: mentoring fiery young boxer Tommy. Oh. I thought you're talking
Speaker 1: about Billy Joel's career first. No, no, no, no, this
Speaker 1: is Rocky Balboa's career. Okay, that's funny though directed by
Speaker 1: John g Alvitson. Oh, who was the original director of
Speaker 1: Rocky one. Is that right? Yeah, there's a really good
Speaker 1: documentary on his career. Very unlikely, uh, sort of or
Speaker 1: maybe not unlikely. But overlooked great director John g Abelson
Speaker 1: Marine s Moore says, the Cornetto trilogy. Do you know
Speaker 1: that that's the Yeah, that's what's his face? Um hot fuzz.
Speaker 1: That's called the End of the World or whatever it's called,
Speaker 1: the World's End, and um Shaun of the Dead. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Cornetto I think is like a type of like ice
Speaker 1: cream cone or a pastry or something like that. I'm
Speaker 1: not sure what the connection there is, all right. Alan
Speaker 1: Richardson says Evil Dead. I'm with you there. That's a franchise.
Speaker 1: Those are great. Our old pal Jeff Noel says the Muppets,
Speaker 1: that's a franchise. Absolutely, those are all pretty good. I'm
Speaker 1: down with that. Like, you can't hate him up at movie,
Speaker 1: you know you could. I mean if you have a
Speaker 1: heart of stone. John Richardson says the Halloween franchise. Now, John,
Speaker 1: I wonder what you mean by that. Are you talking
Speaker 1: about the original Halloween films? Are you talking about the
Speaker 1: rob Zombie films? If you're talking about the originals, I
Speaker 1: guess you'd have to include the new one sort of
Speaker 1: as a true sequel to the original franchise. But the
Speaker 1: rob Zombies are in their own little category. You would
Speaker 1: sort of made that stipulation early on, like with the
Speaker 1: Nolan Batman's versus the you know, the Burton I think
Speaker 1: the first you know, the first batch of Halloween movies
Speaker 1: are I don't know. Those are weird though, too, because
Speaker 1: there's not there's like a there's Halloween three is the
Speaker 1: one where Michael Mynors isn't even in it, and it's
Speaker 1: just like these haunted Halloween masks. Uh. The boys from
Speaker 1: Stuff to Plow Your Mind, they're both down with that.
Speaker 1: I love it. It's great. I don't think I've ever
Speaker 1: seen it. It's just schlock. It's great. It's like really cheesy,
Speaker 1: kind of like being yeah, but it's got like really
Speaker 1: great John Carpenter soundtrack, you know, like it's you know,
Speaker 1: you know, I'm down with that stuff. Uh. John go Forth, Hey,
Speaker 1: he works with us, he does, Yeah, John go Forth,
Speaker 1: it's one of our sales guys and has a great
Speaker 1: podcast of his own called Hysteria fifty one. Everyone should
Speaker 1: check that out, direct competition to my show stuff. They
Speaker 1: don't want you to know, right, I'm kidding where we're
Speaker 1: all friends, he says, the m c U just as
Speaker 1: a whole I don't know if that's a franchise. Maybe
Speaker 1: I would say the Avengers movies or a franchise, that's
Speaker 1: the question, right, but they all do link up. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a big giant franchise. They figured out how to
Speaker 1: really scale a franchise, you know. Joshua Hall says Mad
Speaker 1: Max for sure, I'm down with those movies. Christopher Anny
Speaker 1: another Toy story vote. Uh, let me see here. Paul
Speaker 1: Legner says, does Blade Runner count? I don't think so.
Speaker 1: It's only two movies. Yeah. Again, we're we're the ones
Speaker 1: imposing this tube. Isn't a franchise? Rule? Well? Type in
Speaker 1: the last question, how many qualify for a franchise? And
Speaker 1: let's just see what the geniuses of the internet have
Speaker 1: to say. Rob Johnson says star trek uh. And let's
Speaker 1: finish up here with Andrew Ryan White. The Godfather right,
Speaker 1: the first to both one Best Picture and have legitimate
Speaker 1: claims to best films of all time. The third, while
Speaker 1: not as great, was still nominated, and it gave us
Speaker 1: Michael Corleone's greatest line. Just when I think I'm out,
Speaker 1: they pull me back in. That's true. And I'm on
Speaker 1: record of saying god Father three isn't nearly as bad
Speaker 1: as it was made out to be. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: I think Sofia Coppola kind of gets a lot of
Speaker 1: flak for making that one seems less good. She certainly does. Alright, No,
Speaker 1: so we're gonna finish up with that one. The Internet
Speaker 1: doesn't know how many movies are in a franchise, jock,
Speaker 1: you know what I know, because the Internet doesn't, no ship,
Speaker 1: Yeah it's it says three movies is in a trilogy? Uh,
Speaker 1: you know, two movies as a sequel? A saga can
Speaker 1: even says a saga can be as as as few
Speaker 1: as two. So if you can have a two movie saga, yeah,
Speaker 1: he's in some old timey It just says saga is
Speaker 1: an epic story broken down into multiple movies, like the
Speaker 1: Star Wars saga. Here's the thing, though, it doesn't have
Speaker 1: to be the number of movies, more about the quality
Speaker 1: of the story, Like kill Bill was only two movies.
Speaker 1: But that's clearly a saga that is at a franchise. Well,
Speaker 1: that's the question. The Internet doesn't know the answer to
Speaker 1: that one. Let us know, is a taco a sandwich?
Speaker 1: Are you talking to the Internet, Yeah, that's certainly not
Speaker 1: a sandwich. Oh my gosh, Chuck, that is a hot take, sir?
Speaker 1: Is it the hot dog being a sandwich was the
Speaker 1: big question. No one thinks tacos are sandwich. Wait a minute,
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, Wait a minute. If a hot dog
Speaker 1: is maybe a sandwich? And how can my tacos and
Speaker 1: maybe a sandwich. They're both wrapped in like a crust
Speaker 1: that has like an opening on one end. How are
Speaker 1: they any different from each other? One is made with
Speaker 1: bread and one is made with a hard corn shell.
Speaker 1: That's if you go for a hard taco. A soft
Speaker 1: shell is basically the same as bread. Are you a
Speaker 1: little calling a flower tortilla bread? Sir? Yes? I am.
Speaker 1: Oh all right, We're gonna go onto this one, because this,
Speaker 1: to me was one of the most fun things I've
Speaker 1: seen in a long time. No Um. I often when
Speaker 1: I listened to other podcasts regularly kind of imagine if
Speaker 1: it were a drinking game. And sometimes even in the car,
Speaker 1: I will say drink when something happens, which is a
Speaker 1: repeated thing on a show, so you know what I'm
Speaker 1: talking about. It's basically I'm asking the crowd if if
Speaker 1: movie Crush had it was a drinking game, when would
Speaker 1: you have to drink? Which the real question I'm asking
Speaker 1: is what stuff do we do too much? You know? Uh?
Speaker 1: And we got a lot of good feedback for this,
Speaker 1: so I'm gonna get blaze through these. James d says
Speaker 1: when they have to look something up or google, which
Speaker 1: we're doing right now, of course, drink everyone. Barry King says,
Speaker 1: every time you refer to a fan as our good
Speaker 1: friend or a good pal. And by the way, there
Speaker 1: were dozens and dozens of people that said that, well,
Speaker 1: it's a thing. We It's like, it's clearly a thing. Sure,
Speaker 1: but I can't read all of the people that said that, no,
Speaker 1: because that was the most common refrain, and if you did,
Speaker 1: you would have to introduce them all as our dear friend,
Speaker 1: that's right, and that would take ages. Michael Williams says,
Speaker 1: every time Chuck introduces a guest as the great great
Speaker 1: that is for sure something I do allow. Yeah, uh,
Speaker 1: And I told him. I think I even said something like,
Speaker 1: you know, I'll let you know when someone's an asshole.
Speaker 1: But everyone so far has been pretty great. Uh. Let
Speaker 1: me see here. Sarah negi ar Old houses whenever you
Speaker 1: guys can't remember the name of a listener, I'm sorry,

Speaker 1: I know that I miss people that I have read
Speaker 1: stuff before. All apologies. Hopefully you will get that status.

Speaker 1: my thing for sure. Yeah. A minute ago, you shortened genre,

Speaker 1: genre is like a quick syllable John Jean Brian Bassi says.

Speaker 1: talking about, Louis. We're just happy people man. Norma Brunson.
Speaker 1: Every time Chuck giggles, I would be toasted, that is
Speaker 1: for sure. Oh funny enough, Tony clue twig every time
Speaker 1: Chuck says for sure, I'd say that a lot um.
Speaker 1: You know when I say a lot that I've noticed
Speaker 1: myself saying, I say, lean into a lot. Yeah you do, yeah,
Speaker 1: lean into uh now we each have our things, uh
Speaker 1: lean into There was another one. Well, of course, psychedelics
Speaker 1: is the example I used. Or meta. I think someone
Speaker 1: said something about meta. Do you say that one on
Speaker 1: on one ridiculous history? I often say, as it turns
Speaker 1: out quite a lot, as it turns out, as it
Speaker 1: turns out, this thing happened, It really happened. I think
Speaker 1: you say that on your lot too. These are these
Speaker 1: are great. This just is only going to make me
Speaker 1: feel self conscious about my words. I'm just kidding. Use yours. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you're not gonna come on, these are these are your words?

Speaker 1: that to you a lot more. That's sort of just
Speaker 1: a running joke on the shop. Yeah, yeah, it's it's
Speaker 1: you know, it's like how many times have I said, God, damnit, no,
Speaker 1: damn it all it's all in good fun. You know,
Speaker 1: we're actually we're actually buds. Our old friend Jeff Noel.
Speaker 1: Every time Chuck's voice breaks high and scratchy when he laughs,
Speaker 1: or every time nol Let's out a deep sigh. Drake,
Speaker 1: it's too early for drinking, Chuck, William Angus one of
Speaker 1: our old palaces. Chuck mentioned Lord of the Ring wasn't
Speaker 1: his thing or a great band name, of course. Uh
Speaker 1: let me see here, Brett Giles. Every time Chuck says
Speaker 1: important in his charming Georgia accent, I've already talked about
Speaker 1: that we change our teas into D's for some reason.
Speaker 1: Kyle Bowen says, every time you shout at your phone, radio,
Speaker 1: or computer, do we do that? Now? You do? You
Speaker 1: say that other people do it? Oh? Okay? Is that
Speaker 1: what he means? Is that what he means? I don't know. Remember,

Speaker 1: it's it's all, It's all very genuine. Scott Field says
Speaker 1: every time Chuck makes a reference to someone's age, I'm
Speaker 1: obsessed with that. I think that happens when you get
Speaker 1: to your late forties. Everyone. Uh. Joyce barn says a
Speaker 1: little tiny sip of light beer for every time Chuck
Speaker 1: mentions growing up Baptist. Still working that out, everyone, It
Speaker 1: takes a lot, man, it takes time. It takes time.
Speaker 1: Let me see here, Yvonne Boudette, our old friend from Canada.
Speaker 1: Anytime a movie is mentioned and the other hasn't seen it, well,
Speaker 1: sure that happens quite a bit. Well, especially when it's
Speaker 1: like one that I haven't seen and you gasp, you're
Speaker 1: in shock, but I haven't seen there. It's like an affront.
Speaker 1: You're very existence says, I don't know. Someone on here
Speaker 1: said every time Chuck goes, what that's the sound, that's
Speaker 1: the sound, that's the sound that wakes you up from
Speaker 1: a pleasant night of sleep. No, uh, Bethany, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: totally do this. Bethany Buchanan says, anytime Chuck says someone
Speaker 1: very famously did anything, that is true geez. Now, that's
Speaker 1: all we do. Repeat stuff. No, there's, there's, there's there's
Speaker 1: there's a premium content in between those repetitions. That's true.
Speaker 1: Let me see here. David Croucher's Dave Croucher says, every
Speaker 1: time Noel looks something up on his phone, it's on
Speaker 1: my phone, it's on my computer. Yeah, Dave, come on, man,

Speaker 1: we do. We're we're children at heart. Brendan Rice says
Speaker 1: every time someone every time Chuck says, oh geez, no,
Speaker 1: do I say that? Oh geez, geez, Maybe I do.
Speaker 1: I guess so. Lauren Duke says every time Chuck says
Speaker 1: a movie is one of his favorite movies ever. I
Speaker 1: got a lot of favorite movies. Everyone, You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Yeah, I mean, I'm prone to hyperbole in
Speaker 1: that way too, about lots of things. I'll say that
Speaker 1: was the best cappuccino I've ever had in my life
Speaker 1: until the next one that I have. That is somehow
Speaker 1: outdoes it a Lisa Adams every time Chuck says interesting, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I certainly do that. Tyler Alton says every time Chuck
Speaker 1: pronounces Carrie l Wise his name wrong, Carrie Elvis. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we landed on, We did. We had a whole segment
Speaker 1: where we came to terms with that. Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 1: Uh let me see here, let's do a few more.
Speaker 1: Grant Stewart whenever Chuck does a p s A for
Speaker 1: the Atlanta Tourist Board, Yeah, I like to talk up
Speaker 1: my city that I love. Is that a thing that
Speaker 1: they get served up in the ad spots? No? I
Speaker 1: think no, no, no, he just means he's being, uh facetious.
Speaker 1: It because oftentimes when guests, when big movie stars are
Speaker 1: in town shooting and I get to interview them, I
Speaker 1: always want to know what they think about Atlanta because
Speaker 1: I want them to like Atlanta. Of course, I think
Speaker 1: that's a thing. Oh, these are on the interview episodes.
Speaker 1: I don't listen to those, No, I know, Sorry, Chuck,
Speaker 1: that's okay. No, I don't expect you. We all got
Speaker 1: a lot to do. Um On that note, and shresh
Speaker 1: Tha says, anytime they mentioned Atlanta, well, it is where
Speaker 1: we are. It's true. I don't think we get we'd
Speaker 1: at to Atlanta centric. I think we occasionally toss out
Speaker 1: a little local thing we enjoy, but I think we
Speaker 1: try to keep it pretty broad in terms of, like
Speaker 1: sure appealing to folks from other parts of the world.
Speaker 1: So here it is our old friend Tobin siriachy Uh says,
Speaker 1: I always love it, and Chuck goes what once every
Speaker 1: few episodes that would be worth one shot? All right,
Speaker 1: let's do like a couple of more Nol Sherry Jones,
Speaker 1: every time you say troupe well, I don't think that
Speaker 1: counts because that's a bit Rick damadeiros every time Chuck
Speaker 1: says oh no oh, no oh, you stop uh. Andrew
Speaker 1: Thomas says when every Noel says picture in his movie
Speaker 1: Snob Voice, it's pick chat. Also, when Chuck and Noll
Speaker 1: make plans to hang out, that's pretty funny. We've done
Speaker 1: that a lot. We haven't been camping still. Everyone, Oh,
Speaker 1: here's one Rhese Surrette says every time Noel follows a
Speaker 1: statement by saying, Chuck, hey, Chuck, listen here. I thought
Speaker 1: that was pretty good. At Chuck, you do that, I
Speaker 1: do a hard sea case you do. Um, it's sort
Speaker 1: of your fuck you, I think in a very kind way. No, no,
Speaker 1: it's not. I just like saying your name out loud.
Speaker 1: It's like I use it as a punctuation. I understand. Noel,
Speaker 1: listen here, Chuck. All right, we're gonna finish with Mike.
Speaker 1: Sam's um a little more obscure, he says. But whenever,
Speaker 1: Chuck says he just missed out on a movie or
Speaker 1: television show due to his age. That is true. Just
Speaker 1: missed out on Transformers, nol. Just missed out a little
Speaker 1: too young for me. What do you mean, like with
Speaker 1: like the movies or the cartoon the Originally I was
Speaker 1: just using an example. I got it. But I did
Speaker 1: see the Bumblebee movie finally. It's so good, right, it's
Speaker 1: really good. I thought it was really really sweet. It
Speaker 1: was great, totally enjoyed it. All right, that's all the
