It's 5 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:14,400 Speaker 1: dedicated entirely to me talking about movies. I'm just the 6 00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:17,760 Speaker 1: guy who loves watching and reviewing movies and coming on 7 00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:19,880 Speaker 1: every single week and doing a podcast about it. And 8 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:22,239 Speaker 1: today I want to give you, guys some recommendations for 9 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,760 Speaker 1: some comedy movies from the two thousands that you probably 10 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:28,160 Speaker 1: haven't seen. Maybe you've been looking for a good laugh lately. 11 00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 1: I'll share some movies that I think nobody really talks 12 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,560 Speaker 1: about that may provide that for you. Without any further ado, 13 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: I hope you're subscribed to the podcast where ever you're 14 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 1: listening to this right now, let's just get started. In 15 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 1: a world where everyone and their mother has a podcast, 16 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:47,199 Speaker 1: one man stands to infiltrate the ears of listeners like 17 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:51,280 Speaker 1: never before in a movie podcast. A man with so 18 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:55,640 Speaker 1: much movie knowledge, he's basically like a walking on Davie 19 00:00:55,760 --> 00:01:03,320 Speaker 1: with glasses from the Nashville Podcast Networks Movie Movie. So 20 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 1: what I want to share with you on this episode 21 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,120 Speaker 1: or five comedies from the two thousands, then I think 22 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,040 Speaker 1: nobody talks about and maybe there's a couple of reasons why. 23 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 1: One because these aren't really movies that did so great 24 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: at the box office, so they have that going against him. 25 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,199 Speaker 1: Some of these were straight to video, but I still 26 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,760 Speaker 1: think that right now we've been in kind of a 27 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 1: draft of great comedies. And the other night I was 28 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,039 Speaker 1: just looking for something that I could watch that was 29 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 1: funny and familiar, and some reason I default to the 30 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:35,320 Speaker 1: two thousand's. I was born in the nineties, but then 31 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 1: with a teenager obviously in the two thousands, and I 32 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,320 Speaker 1: think that's a lot of where my kind of comedic 33 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,280 Speaker 1: mind kind of formed a little bit. So there was 34 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: these movies that just kind of stuck with me over 35 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 1: these years, and I go back and watch them and 36 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: still find them funny. So I wanted to share these 37 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 1: with you so maybe you could go out and watch 38 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: these online and hopefully get a laugh out of So 39 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: first up as a movie from two thousand nine called 40 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 1: Mystery Team. It stars Donald Glover, D C. Pearson, and 41 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: Dominique Dirkis, who I felt were really just the early 42 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: pioneers in YouTube comedy. They had a comedy group called 43 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: Derek Comedy, and this was like in the very primitive 44 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 1: years of YouTube, before you could actually be a YouTuber 45 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 1: as a career. Their channel was kind of in the 46 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: same vein of college humor, just skits, funny jokes, and 47 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 1: I think just overall were really kind of well written 48 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 1: and some of the funniest things that I still go 49 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: back and watch in their full quality. But all the 50 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: success they had on YouTube led to them having this movie. 51 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: And the overall premise of the movie is they were 52 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: essentially all friends as very young kids, and they kind 53 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 1: of developed this thing called the Mystery Team where they 54 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 1: would go around and solve mysteries and help people with 55 00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: problems in their town. But of course they were just 56 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: kids and people were really just being nice to them. 57 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 1: But then they get older, they're all teenagers in high school, 58 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 1: and they're still doing the same thing. They're very juvenile, 59 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: basically huge nerds, and everybody kind of makes fun of them, 60 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: but they're really kind of unaware of that, Like they 61 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,119 Speaker 1: really want to be detectives. That's what they want to do. 62 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: But then out of nowhere they get this actual case 63 00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,079 Speaker 1: to where this young girl hires them to solve the 64 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: mystery of finding the person who killed her dad. And 65 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:20,959 Speaker 1: I think why I love this movie so much is, 66 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 1: first of all, I'm a really big Donald Glover fan. 67 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: If you don't know Donald Glover, he is also Childish Gambino, 68 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 1: the musician, But before that, he was doing stand up comedy, 69 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 1: doing the YouTube thing, and I kind of followed him 70 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: all throughout his career, and I think he's really un 71 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 1: highlighted part of his career is how funny he was 72 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: that in stand up and in TV shows and in 73 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 1: this movie, so much so that I actually got to 74 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: meet and talked to him back in twenty eleven. This 75 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: was right before his major label Childish Gambino album came out. 76 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: Like he hadn't put out an official album yet, he'd 77 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: only put out mix tapes online. And I was working 78 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 1: as an intern on the Bobby Bones Show at the time, 79 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: and he came in to promote that album, and I 80 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 1: took my copy of Mystery Team on DVD and had 81 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: him sign it. Still have it to this day. And 82 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: I also have a signed letter that I wrote to 83 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: Donald Glover why he was my hero and why I 84 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 1: loved him. I know it sounds weird and there's a 85 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,159 Speaker 1: whole video on YouTube if you look it up of 86 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 1: me reacting to hit the letter being read to him. 87 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: So he was also just super cool, Like I know, 88 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:30,840 Speaker 1: it's weird for somebody to be that big of a 89 00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 1: fan and kind of deliver that kind of news to someone, 90 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: you know, a little bit of an awkward situation. But 91 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: after that, he signed it, wrote thank you on it, 92 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: and gave me V I P tickets to a show 93 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 1: that night in Austin and with one of the greatest 94 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:46,919 Speaker 1: concerts I've ever been to. So I think why I 95 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: love this movie. It's a mix of kind of It 96 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 1: really kind of defines my humor of something that's not 97 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 1: meant to be taken seriously. Like I know the jokes 98 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,479 Speaker 1: in this are kind of dumb and juvenile, because I 99 00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: do think it takes some kind of skill to write 100 00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:02,599 Speaker 1: this kind of humor. It's funny, it has some heart, 101 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: also has some raunchiness that comes in with an R rating. 102 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 1: But just the movie I felt that didn't get the 103 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: recognition it deserved when it came out at the box office, 104 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 1: only made eighty nine thousand dollars in the United States. 105 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: Has a Rotten Tomato score of six but I would 106 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,720 Speaker 1: rate it four out of five magnifying glasses. And also, 107 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: if you're a fan of Aubrey Plaza, she does star 108 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: in the movie as well. And this almost feels like 109 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: it was an adaptation from like an snl skit kind 110 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 1: of those type of movies like A Wayne's World or 111 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 1: a Master of Disguise. If you're into those kind of movies, 112 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 1: I think you'll like Mystery Team. Even though none of 113 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: them were ever on this and l they're all that 114 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,359 Speaker 1: kind of kind of group of comedic writers, kind of 115 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 1: in that Lonely Island style, So if you're into that 116 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 1: kind of comedy, I think you'll like this movie. Coming 117 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 1: in next on the list is a movie called Rolling Kansas, 118 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 1: which came out in two thousand and three. It stars 119 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 1: James Rode Rodriguez which he just added at Rodriguez recently, 120 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 1: Sam Huntington's and j Paulson. It's an independent movie about 121 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 1: a road trip to find a magical forest the marijuana. Yes, 122 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 1: you guessed it. It's basically a stoner comedy, but I 123 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,480 Speaker 1: just feel like it has some added layers in there. 124 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,480 Speaker 1: So it's the story about these brothers who parents were 125 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: hippies and they were sent to prison when they were younger, 126 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,599 Speaker 1: and now they're older as adults and they're kind of 127 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,479 Speaker 1: living this kind of problematic life. And they find this 128 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: map that their parents left them to a secret government 129 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 1: marijuana field. They gather up some friends, some dope acquaintances, 130 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 1: and go and try to find this marijuana, which they 131 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 1: hope to take home and then sell and make money. 132 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 1: And this was a movie I remember watching on Comedy Central, 133 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: and it's a very hard movie to actually find a 134 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 1: physical copy of. I actually tried to find the box 135 00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 1: office numbers and it came up a whopping zero. Also 136 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 1: doesn't have a Rotten Tomato score, but does have an 137 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: audience score of sevent. I would rate this movie three 138 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 1: point five out of five. Goofy boots, and if you 139 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,080 Speaker 1: watch the movie, you'll figure out why. But I'm kind 140 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,359 Speaker 1: of a sucker for a good road trip movie mixed 141 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 1: in with some stoner comedy. And I think stoner comedy 142 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,839 Speaker 1: is a very funny kind of genre movie when it's 143 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: done right. Sometimes it gets so ridiculous to where it's unbearable. 144 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:11,559 Speaker 1: Sometimes it's like do tours my car, where it's so 145 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: dumb it makes it funny. I think this movie is 146 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 1: a little bit in between, So I would say this 147 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 1: movie is kind of a mix of road Trip and 148 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: Do Tours My Car. If you're into both of those movies, 149 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 1: I think you'll like Rolling Kansas. Number three on my 150 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: list is a movie called Waiting from two thousand and five. 151 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: I think this one is probably the one that did 152 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: the best at the box office from all of these movies, 153 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: and maybe the most well known. But it's also a 154 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: movie I feel that people don't talk a whole lot about, 155 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: even though it's stars Ryan Reynolds, Anna Faris, and Justin Long, 156 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,239 Speaker 1: and they were all kind of a little bit earlier 157 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: in their careers, especially on a Farris and Ryan Reynolds. 158 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 1: And the movie is about a group of young employees 159 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 1: who work at this restaurant called Shenanigans, and it's basically 160 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 1: just them goofing off the entire movie, messing with the 161 00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 1: other employees, messing with the customers. And I think this 162 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: is just the movie that you couldn't really make today 163 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,640 Speaker 1: one because it's overly raunchy. It's a very raunchy movie. 164 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: And I think you would even look back on some 165 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: of the elements of this movie and you would be 166 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: like oh, I can't believe they actually did that. But 167 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,239 Speaker 1: when it comes to comedies, I kind of like ones 168 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 1: that just are people hanging out and doing things and 169 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 1: messing with each other. There's an overall and not the 170 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 1: biggest plot in this movie, but it's funny and there's 171 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:26,200 Speaker 1: very memorable comedic moments that you will go back and 172 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 1: kind of quote or or want to joke around and 173 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: kind of re enact some of the scenes in this movie. 174 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 1: And also if you're familiar with like the restaurant life 175 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,720 Speaker 1: and what that is, I think you'll really relate to 176 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,240 Speaker 1: this movie. Maybe not all the elements of it because it's, 177 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 1: like I said, it's pretty raunchy, but I think it 178 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 1: does kind of capture that culture pretty well. And I 179 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 1: think also what sets this movie a part of just 180 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 1: being an average raunchy comedy does have some heart, which 181 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 1: I think the theme here is to make a great comedy. 182 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: If you're gonna go raunchy, if you're gonna go trying 183 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 1: to be funny, it has to have some heart to 184 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: pull it all together. That the difference between a good 185 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 1: comedy and a bad comedy in simple terms. So this 186 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 1: movie made eighteen point six million dollars at the box 187 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: office in the United States, which isn't a box office 188 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:12,079 Speaker 1: hit by any means, but I do think it's somewhat 189 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: of a comedy cult classic from the early two thousand's, 190 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:17,319 Speaker 1: so I would say if you're into the raunchiness of 191 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:21,080 Speaker 1: a movie like The Hangover, you'll probably like Waiting all right. 192 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 1: Next up on my list is the movie from two 193 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 1: thousand and two called Replicate. It stars Ali Landry, who 194 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: you may remember from the two thousands de Rito's commercials. 195 00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 1: Also James or Dave Rodriguez, who makes another appearance in 196 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: this list, and also Eugene Levy. And the premise of 197 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 1: this movie, it's about a scientist and his friend who 198 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:44,120 Speaker 1: accidentally cloned this journalist and decided to turn her into 199 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 1: the idea of what they think a perfect woman is. 200 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: So it's these guys designing a woman who loves beer, 201 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 1: football and frat parties. Again, a movie you probably couldn't 202 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: make today. And again I think this movie has such 203 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 1: a ridiculous premise. In no way you would think it 204 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 1: was gonna be good. But when you watch this movie, 205 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:04,839 Speaker 1: you find it has some charm to it, and it's 206 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,959 Speaker 1: actually pretty funny, and it is a little bit predictable. 207 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,080 Speaker 1: It plays out the way you would think. You know, 208 00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 1: they have this perfect woman in their minds. Everything's great 209 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,439 Speaker 1: at the beginning, and then they kind of realized, well, 210 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 1: you can't really replace the real thing when it comes 211 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: to creating a human But I remember watching this movie 212 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,200 Speaker 1: when I was younger and thinking it was one of 213 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 1: the greatest things I'd ever seen. And at the time, 214 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 1: I was in a punk rock band. We were called 215 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 1: Everyday Destruction. I was the lead singer of the band 216 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 1: and guitarist, and I was so inspired by this movie. 217 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,559 Speaker 1: I decided to write a song about it, a song 218 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 1: about a clone. And somehow the song I wrote about 219 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 1: this movie turned into one of our quote unquote biggest 220 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: hits of our punk rock career. And I was in 221 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 1: a punk rock band basically all throughout junior high, high school, 222 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,679 Speaker 1: in college, and once I got to college, I was like, 223 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 1: all right, I either have to do something that's gonna 224 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 1: make me money or being a band. So I decided 225 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,959 Speaker 1: to get into radio. But when we recorded our first 226 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,199 Speaker 1: ever full length album, we did a legit album, and 227 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,199 Speaker 1: this was actually what you would call a B side 228 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 1: to our album. We didn't even think it was that 229 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 1: good to make it onto the album. And I remember 230 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 1: I didn't even want to put this song out. I 231 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,320 Speaker 1: was like, I just wrote it about a movie. It's 232 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 1: not that great, it's kind of repetitive. But our guitar 233 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,680 Speaker 1: player at the time put it out on YouTube just 234 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 1: to see what it would do. And I think out 235 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 1: of all the songs we've ever released online, this one 236 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: has the most streams of anything. So our unexpected hit 237 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 1: is about a movie about a clone that very few 238 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: people have seen. So I do still love the movie 239 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: and I did pull a clip of the song. So 240 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 1: this is my band everyday destruction. The song is called Replicate, 241 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,960 Speaker 1: the same title as the movie. I'll bear with this 242 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: and try to play as much of it as I 243 00:11:50,600 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: can to give you guys an idea out up and 244 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: Joe Addict you never be two days I saidn't think 245 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 1: it about the races I want, So okay, that's enough 246 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,280 Speaker 1: of that. But yes, the lyrics are my girl is 247 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: the prettiest clone I know. I know, so insightful, so deep, 248 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 1: But yeah, that is me singing and playing guitar in that. 249 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 1: So that's based on the movie Replicate, which has a 250 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 1: audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. No official score, but I 251 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,959 Speaker 1: would give it three point seven five out of five 252 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 1: clones all right, And the fifth and final movie on 253 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 1: my list, it's a movie from two thousand and three 254 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 1: called Haggard The movie. It starts Ryan Dunn and Bamar Jarra, 255 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 1: and it's basically based on a real story of Bamar Jarra, 256 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 1: directed by him and the early two thousand's, I couldn't 257 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 1: have been more obsessed with anything than Jackass and all 258 00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 1: of their projects. So it started with Jackass, the first movie, 259 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 1: and then all of their side TV shows on MTV, 260 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:08,360 Speaker 1: whether it be Viovil, Obama, Wild Boys, and then they 261 00:13:08,440 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 1: all started kind of doing their own thing in Bambarjira 262 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:15,680 Speaker 1: independently released some movies basically straight to VHS and DVD 263 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 1: at the time, and this was really the first one 264 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: he put out that was a cult classic and that 265 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,079 Speaker 1: kind of if you were into skateboarding, if you were 266 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: into Jackass, you watched this movie and it was your 267 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: holy grail of movies. And I was probably fourteen years 268 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 1: old when this came out and I was dying to 269 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 1: get a copy of it. My cousin happened to get 270 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 1: a VHS of it, watched it, and I thought it 271 00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: was the funniest thing at the time, mainly because it 272 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: was all the jackass guys that I love from People 273 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: Obama in a movie and they were able to curse 274 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 1: and do kind of things that they couldn't do on TV. 275 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 1: So this movie was actually never in theaters and it 276 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 1: doesn't even have a Rotten Tomato score, but it does 277 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:53,559 Speaker 1: have an audience score, and I would give it three 278 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,079 Speaker 1: out of five forks to the eye. Again, a very 279 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 1: raunchy movie, and even watching it back now, you can 280 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 1: see how and of low and independent it was. But 281 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 1: this movie was kind of so formative in my early 282 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 1: teen years of that whole kind of skateboarding culture that 283 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 1: I was kind of a part of growing up, But 284 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 1: not really because I didn't really get to skateboard because 285 00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: my mom banded it after my cousin broke his ankle 286 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: and I wasn't allowed to skateboard after that. But I 287 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: really identified with the culture. I would dress like a skater. 288 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: I guess I just didn't actually skate. I aspired to 289 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: be a skater. But if you were into those jackass 290 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 1: movies like I was, if you were into the TV show, 291 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 1: but if you were also a fan of those movies 292 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: and haven't watched this one. It is available for free 293 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: to watch on YouTube. It has heavy metal, it has skateboarding, 294 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: it has very low five special effects. So but that 295 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: is the list. If you end up watching one of 296 00:14:44,200 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 1: the movies from this list, let me know which one 297 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: and what you rated it, and hopefully you got some 298 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 1: laughs out of it. So if you had one movie 299 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 1: to watch for the rest of your life, what would 300 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 1: it be? That is the question I asked on Twitter 301 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: and Instagram and to know what you guys thought, because 302 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 1: I have my own answer and I've talked about it 303 00:15:03,720 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 1: on the podcast before, but I was just curious for 304 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 1: everybody listening to this kind of where you land on 305 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 1: this topic, because it's a pretty good indicator of what 306 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 1: you guys like and what you guys enjoy, and I 307 00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 1: wanted to know that because I think it's different than 308 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,520 Speaker 1: your favorite movie. Your favorite movie is one that just 309 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: resonated with you and you don't necessarily have to go 310 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 1: back and watch it time and time again. Because my 311 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 1: favorite movie of all time is The Dark Night, but 312 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 1: I don't think that's my pick here. I wouldn't want 313 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 1: to watch that one for the rest of my life, 314 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 1: because I think that one would get kind of old 315 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 1: and boring after a while. I think a movie that 316 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:37,440 Speaker 1: you want to watch for the rest of your life 317 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: is one that you just enjoy. No matter anytime you 318 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 1: hop into that movie, you're gonna like it. And also 319 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 1: if it comes on, you're probably gonna watch it at 320 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 1: any point and just make time for it. I think 321 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 1: that is the movie in this case, and I was 322 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,480 Speaker 1: curious to see how that fit with what you guys 323 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 1: like to watch and what's kind of surprised by the 324 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 1: variety of responses, but there was also about three clear 325 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 1: cut winners as the ones with the most votes, So 326 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 1: at number three it was Avengers Endgame, and I found 327 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 1: interesting and I was kind of asking people messaging people 328 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 1: back of like why Avengers End Game of all the 329 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 1: Marvel movies that there are, and basically the overarching response 330 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 1: is that it has everything, which I feel is pretty 331 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 1: accurate for that movie, because it's almost like three movies 332 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: going on at once. It's the culmination of all the 333 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 1: Marvel movies and kind of all those leading up into 334 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 1: that movie, So I could agree with that when it's 335 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 1: also over three hours long, so you're getting a little 336 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: bit more each time. You're probably catching things that you 337 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 1: haven't caught before. I'm not sure that I would pick 338 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: this one. It's not my favorite Marvel movie, not even 339 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: my favorite Avengers movie, but I could see why this 340 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: one kind of stuck out there. You're getting a lot here. 341 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: It's a lot to take in even just watching it once. 342 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: I've watched it twice, and I would probably watch it 343 00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 1: the third time, but after that, I think I would 344 00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: have all of Avengers in game. When it comes to 345 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: my favorite Avengers movie of Infinity War will always rink 346 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 1: at the top of mine. I think that one was 347 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 1: just a better movie in my opinion, and my pick 348 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: for the movie I would watch for the rest of 349 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:16,080 Speaker 1: my life is actually a Marvel movie, but not in 350 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 1: the universe. It's Spider Man into the Spider Verse, kind 351 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 1: of on the same lines of the Avengers movie. I 352 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:23,640 Speaker 1: feel like there's so many things you can take out 353 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:26,440 Speaker 1: of that one every time you watch it visually. I 354 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 1: don't see that movie ever getting old for me, and 355 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: Spider Man being my favorite Marvel character. I just think 356 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 1: it's one that tells a different story that has never 357 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: been told about Spider Man, and I think that's why 358 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,480 Speaker 1: that movie received so much praise and I can't wait 359 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,120 Speaker 1: for the second one to come out. But I think 360 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 1: that's just a perfect movie and one I've watched at 361 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 1: least five times now and have not gotten tired of 362 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 1: and could keep watching it again and again. So that's 363 00:17:51,240 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 1: my pick. Coming in at number two from votes online 364 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 1: was Forrest Gump, and I think this one is basically 365 00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 1: because how much rewatch a bill this movie has. I 366 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: can't even put a number on the amount of times 367 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,119 Speaker 1: I've watched Sports Gump, and I wouldn't even consider it 368 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,640 Speaker 1: one of my favorite movies, not even in my top ten, 369 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,880 Speaker 1: but I understand it, and I also understand that when 370 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:15,479 Speaker 1: that movie is on TV, I'll sit down and watch it. 371 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 1: And I think it was very long after that movie 372 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:21,159 Speaker 1: came out that I had even sat down and watched 373 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 1: it from the very beginning to the very end. I 374 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 1: would always kind of catch it in different parts, and 375 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 1: it's a movie you can almost jump in at any 376 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 1: random moment and enjoy the story for what it is, 377 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: because there's a lot of different stories in one. But 378 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 1: once you do finally sit down and watch that movie 379 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 1: all the way through, it's a great movie. And I 380 00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 1: believe a movie that has also proved itself as standing 381 00:18:44,680 --> 00:18:48,919 Speaker 1: the test of time. It came out in n and 382 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 1: just the visual aspect of that movie and how well 383 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 1: I would say it's aged is incredible for them to 384 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 1: be able to do those kind of special effects in 385 00:18:56,520 --> 00:19:00,160 Speaker 1: that movie back in shows a lot about that movie, 386 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 1: and almost twenty years later now the movie still ranks 387 00:19:04,119 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 1: up there with a bunch of people's favorites. And after 388 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 1: that many years that people still aren't bored by that movie. 389 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: I think that's a great pick here. So that's at 390 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 1: number two, and that number one is one I was 391 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 1: really surprised by. I saw this one with the most 392 00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:20,880 Speaker 1: votes throughout all the platforms, and it's shawsh Ank Redemption. 393 00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:24,479 Speaker 1: Fun fact about this movie also from nine which in 394 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:28,120 Speaker 1: my head, I think nineteen is one of the greatest 395 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:29,879 Speaker 1: years of film and I think I'm actually gonna do 396 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 1: an episode in some of the greatest years. Yeah, one 397 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 1: of the greatest years in movies. You have. Not only 398 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,359 Speaker 1: were we already mentioned for a Scump, shawsh Ank Redemption, 399 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,640 Speaker 1: pulp Fiction, The Lion King, I think all of those 400 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 1: could have easily made this list, But when it comes 401 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:45,880 Speaker 1: to Shawshank Redemption. I for me, I don't think that's 402 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,080 Speaker 1: the most rewatchable. I wouldn't want that one for the 403 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 1: rest of my life. I did enjoy it. I've probably 404 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: seen it a couple of times, but I think after 405 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 1: you experienced that movie once it affects you the way 406 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,439 Speaker 1: it did, I really don't see myself going back and 407 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:00,879 Speaker 1: wanting to watch that again. I'm not saying it's not 408 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,280 Speaker 1: a great movie. I was just surprised to see that 409 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:06,639 Speaker 1: one with the most votes. Appreciate everybody for sending in 410 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 1: those votes. If you don't follow me on the socials, 411 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 1: it's at Mike destro on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook. I'm 412 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:15,919 Speaker 1: always throwing movie topics out there if you want to 413 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 1: get in on those, and you can always email me 414 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,640 Speaker 1: to movie Mike d at gmail dot com. I love 415 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 1: it when you guys interact with the podcast. I think 416 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:26,120 Speaker 1: that's what makes this really fun to do. Let's get 417 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 1: into a movie review now. I want to talk about 418 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:31,879 Speaker 1: Godzilla Versus Kong, which is available now on HBO Max 419 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 1: at no additional cost. It's also in theaters on Imax 420 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,679 Speaker 1: and all the things. And before we get into this review, 421 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 1: here's just a little bit of the trailer, Mr Rest, 422 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 1: these are dangerous times. Godzilla is out there and he's 423 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 1: hurting people and we don't know why. There's something provoking 424 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:53,440 Speaker 1: that we're not seeing it. The mis a real there 425 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:57,239 Speaker 1: was a war and there's the last one standing. So 426 00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 1: I gotta say I was pretty excited to watch this movie. 427 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,199 Speaker 1: Basically the biggest movie since Wonder Woman, and this is 428 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 1: really the first big blockbuster of the year, and it's 429 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 1: opening five day weekend and took home forty two million dollars, 430 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,120 Speaker 1: which is a pretty big triumph. And we're kind of 431 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 1: in that process now of movies coming back into the 432 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: movie theater. Last week we saw a bunch of movies 433 00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 1: just get delayed by one week, which I think is 434 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,879 Speaker 1: a little bit weird. Everybody's kind of waiting for that 435 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,160 Speaker 1: right time to hit. And I love that they went 436 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: ahead put this one out in theaters and it's now 437 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: available also on HBO Max to watch at no additional cost. 438 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,399 Speaker 1: And I have to admit, though, I was a little 439 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:35,160 Speaker 1: bit taken back by the way HBO Max rolled this out, 440 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: because when they made the big announcement that movies were 441 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 1: gonna be available in theaters and on their streaming service 442 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 1: at the same time and no additional cost. I was 443 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 1: excited about that, but when it came to King Kong, 444 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,200 Speaker 1: it came out in theaters on Friday, and I wasn't 445 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:50,360 Speaker 1: able to watch it until Wednesday of this last week, 446 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: so there's a little bit of a delay there. And 447 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 1: I was coming in the episode before ready to give 448 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:57,360 Speaker 1: this review and had to wait to watch it. So 449 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 1: I'm not ready to go back to a movie theater yet. 450 00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 1: I'm about one vaccine shot and two weeks after that 451 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,959 Speaker 1: ready to go back to a movie theater. So I 452 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,120 Speaker 1: was excited to be able to watch this movie because 453 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 1: it felt like the first real big movie in a while, 454 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 1: probably since Wonder Woman. And I'm not the biggest fan 455 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: of either the Godzilla or the King Kong franchise. I 456 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 1: did rewatch The Godzilla in preparation for this to kind 457 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:25,120 Speaker 1: of put me back into that state, and I am 458 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 1: more team Godzilla versus Kong. Again. This is spoiler free 459 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:32,320 Speaker 1: and I won't reveal what happened in the movie between 460 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,360 Speaker 1: the fight, but I just think Godzilla is a much 461 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 1: more superior and complex titan creature, and I just like 462 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 1: his story a little bit more than Kong. I feel 463 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: like we're going into this I thought there was no 464 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,919 Speaker 1: contest that Godzilla would win. So this is me even 465 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 1: before watching the movie knowing that, I just think he's 466 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 1: the more superior monster in this. I also just like 467 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 1: his origin story better, and on screen when he appears, 468 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 1: I just think it's more dynamic and just a lot 469 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:05,879 Speaker 1: more powerful. So I'm king Godzilla all the way now. 470 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 1: When it comes to this movie, the biggest takeaway is 471 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,639 Speaker 1: that the visuals are amazing, and I think they should 472 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 1: go on to get an Academy Award for how much 473 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 1: was put into the special effects, because the problem with 474 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 1: the movie like this that you can encounter is that 475 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 1: there's just so much going on the screen that's not 476 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,120 Speaker 1: actually existing in the real world. Godzilla and King Kong 477 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 1: do not actually exist. They're all computer generated. And I 478 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 1: have to give it to them that they were able 479 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 1: to make it so realistic and so lifelike that there 480 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:35,919 Speaker 1: was very few moments where I realized that much watching 481 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,400 Speaker 1: just two fictional characters fight on screen, they appeared real, 482 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 1: which is a weird thing to say that because it's 483 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 1: not like an animated movie, but it's just so detailed 484 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: and they got that so right that I felt made 485 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 1: this movie that much more enjoyable. I believe that there 486 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 1: was a world where these two titans actually existed, and 487 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:57,199 Speaker 1: I was all in. Oddly, the part I didn't like 488 00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,480 Speaker 1: about the movie was the human element. I felt that 489 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,359 Speaker 1: story took a little bit away from him and I 490 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:04,680 Speaker 1: feel like us, his viewers, we're a little bit more 491 00:24:06,119 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 1: able to adapt and adjust to what is presented to us. 492 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,280 Speaker 1: And I almost think they could have kind of taken 493 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:14,239 Speaker 1: away the whole human storyline and them interacting with King 494 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: Kong and Godzilla just a little bit. There's a whole 495 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 1: kind of side story with like Millie Bobby Brown's character 496 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 1: who was in the movie that I felt like it 497 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,159 Speaker 1: didn't really need. It took away a little bit and 498 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: added nothing to the overall story. I felt they could 499 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:29,679 Speaker 1: have focused so much more on King Kong and Godzilla, 500 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 1: made that more of the narrative, and taken away kind 501 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 1: of the human element. At least that was in my opinion. 502 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 1: I felt like at some points they were overstating things 503 00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 1: happening in the movie, and it felt a little bit 504 00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:44,159 Speaker 1: cheesy in that regard. But the overall premise of this 505 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:46,360 Speaker 1: movie is Godzilla comes back and you kind of think 506 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 1: he's bad at the beginning and attacking for no reason. 507 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: You later find out the reason why he is, and 508 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 1: they try to bring King Kong into and at the 509 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: same time, King Kong is being held in captivity, and 510 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:01,160 Speaker 1: the whole kind of thing comes together where King Kong 511 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: has taken out, Godzilla is free. They can't exist on 512 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 1: the world together, so they fight. He escaped from captivity 513 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:10,879 Speaker 1: and then battles Godzilla and what I think is one 514 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 1: of the greatest fight sequences I've seen in a really 515 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:16,399 Speaker 1: long time. So this movie is really just big fun. 516 00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,000 Speaker 1: It's big monsters fighting each other, and kind of thing 517 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,760 Speaker 1: watching this movie, like the animalistic part of my brain 518 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 1: kind of came out because I'm not really into m 519 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 1: m A or boxing or anything like that, but when 520 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 1: it came to two monsters fighting each other, I was 521 00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 1: on the couch like riled up, wanting Godzilla to punch 522 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:35,560 Speaker 1: King Kong in the face. And it's just really just big, 523 00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: stupid fun. Like there's nothing complex about this movie. There's 524 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:42,200 Speaker 1: nothing there's no overarching themes throughout the movie. It's really 525 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:46,199 Speaker 1: just two big monsters fighting, battling it out with the 526 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 1: best special effects I think in Hollywood right now. So visually, 527 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:51,639 Speaker 1: there were so many things I liked about it. I 528 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: already went on about the way they looked, but I 529 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 1: mean just the landscape to the places they were fighting, 530 00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,119 Speaker 1: and whether it was them fighting in the ocean or 531 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 1: them fighting in Hong Kong. Visually it just looked amazing. 532 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:06,160 Speaker 1: I liked all the Neon colors. So on their own, 533 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 1: I don't think Godzilla or King Kong are really the 534 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:12,160 Speaker 1: strongest franchises. I don't think they really are. I wasn't 535 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:15,679 Speaker 1: really excited about them until they put these two franchises together, 536 00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:17,639 Speaker 1: and now I think if they make another one of these, 537 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:20,639 Speaker 1: I'm all in for it. So I really think this works. 538 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: Probably the best versus movie I've seen in a really 539 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 1: long time, and taking two really kind of historic and 540 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:31,479 Speaker 1: legacy franchises that have been doing okay, putting them together, 541 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:34,199 Speaker 1: I think it works. Again, nothing groundbreaking here, but if 542 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 1: you're looking for something just fun to watch, sit down 543 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 1: with some popcorn, escape reality for two hours, I think 544 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 1: this is a really good movie to do it. I 545 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 1: would give it three point nine out of five heat beams. Yeah, 546 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 1: we'll go with that, because I'm team Godzilla. Three point 547 00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:52,720 Speaker 1: nine out of five heat beams for Godzilla Versus Kong. 548 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 1: I think it's as good as a monster movie can get, 549 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:57,879 Speaker 1: and it's really just made me excited again to have 550 00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 1: big movies back again. Glad to see it doing well 551 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:02,680 Speaker 1: at the box office. I think this is a great 552 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 1: thing of signs to come for movies coming back, y'all. 553 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,320 Speaker 1: All right, and speaking of Warner Brothers and movies, let's 554 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 1: get into some movie news now. The biggest trailer that 555 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 1: came out last week, we finally got a glimpse at 556 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 1: what the new Space Jam sequel was going to look like. 557 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:19,639 Speaker 1: If you missed that trailer, here's just a little bit 558 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:27,879 Speaker 1: of a Now I'm a cartoon. Watch up, daff I 559 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 1: need to assemble an elite team to help give my 560 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:35,399 Speaker 1: son back. I know what you're looking for, A dream team. 561 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 1: Shoot the ball. Let's try it that again, Jelly. So 562 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 1: some exciting things about this trailer. I feel a little 563 00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 1: bit better about it now. But this trailer seems pretty intense, 564 00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,160 Speaker 1: and I feel like they're making Space Jam a little 565 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,680 Speaker 1: bit more dramatic and powerful as the first one. The 566 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: first one was great because it was just funny and lighthearted, 567 00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 1: and this one kind of looks like they're making Lebron 568 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,520 Speaker 1: James a superhero. It feels like a superhero trailer. But 569 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:05,359 Speaker 1: some things I did like about the trailer was the 570 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 1: use of two D animation whenever Lebron James first gets 571 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 1: put into Tune world, and it has that classic Looney 572 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,960 Speaker 1: Tunes vibe, which I just love, and I love anytime 573 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:17,480 Speaker 1: any movie now uses any kind of two D animation 574 00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 1: because I think it's it's a great look, and it's 575 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,439 Speaker 1: a great media. And the cartoons that I grew up 576 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 1: with all look like that what the Looney Tunes look like, 577 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 1: and I just think anytime you can put that back 578 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,399 Speaker 1: into a movie, it really gives it a great fun feel, 579 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 1: especially when it comes to a Looney Tunes movie. The 580 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 1: other cool thing about the trailer was all the Warner 581 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 1: Brothers characters they are incorporating on this movie, which is 582 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 1: a lot different than the first Base Jam. I mean, 583 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:44,320 Speaker 1: I saw glimpses of Scooby Doo, there's King Kong in there, 584 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 1: and then of course all the classic Looney Tunes characters 585 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,960 Speaker 1: are back, and I think visually they look pretty cool. 586 00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 1: It's a little bit more updated. Of course, it has 587 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 1: more of a video game vibe than the original, which 588 00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 1: I think I'll get used to later. But again, kids movie, 589 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 1: I'm kind of holding onto my millennial. This is not 590 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 1: the Looney Tunes I grew up with it, but I'll 591 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 1: grow out of that. I understand that they have to 592 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:07,960 Speaker 1: make it different. And then when it comes to Lebron James, 593 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 1: we have seen him act a little bit. I don't 594 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 1: think you're going for a spectacular Lebron James performance. I 595 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: think you get out of him what you kind of expect. 596 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 1: I like him just fine. I do think he has 597 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 1: some comedic chops which we've seen before of his acting, 598 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 1: and I'm excited to see how he carries a movie 599 00:29:24,120 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 1: as a leading actor. Also in movie news, Netflix shelled 600 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 1: out four hundred and fifty million dollars for two Knives 601 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 1: Out sequels. They will be starring Daniel Craig, and this 602 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 1: is basically one of the biggest deals ever made for 603 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 1: the rights to a movie series. And we're kind of 604 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 1: seeing all not only the movie studios battle against each other, 605 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 1: but all the streaming platforms now too because they want 606 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: them to go to their own streaming services to get 607 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 1: people over there and subscribed. And now Netflix is really 608 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 1: just kind of establishing its dominance. Now, would you forget 609 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: it's the o G. It's the major player here in 610 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 1: all the streaming rights to major movies, and they're now 611 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: wanting to scoop up all these big titles to get 612 00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 1: people to come over to Netflix. I think this was 613 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 1: a great get for them. I think the Knives Out 614 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 1: franchise does have some potential here. The first one was 615 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 1: only a forty million dollar budget and went on to 616 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 1: make over three hundred millions, so kind of an unexpected 617 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:23,120 Speaker 1: hit there. And I think where we're going to kind 618 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 1: of see some great things as just viewers is that 619 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 1: all these studios competing, all these streaming platforms competing is 620 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: gonna be great for us because we're gonna get the 621 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 1: best content. The part where I think we're gonna struggle 622 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 1: a little bit is knowing what's on what. And now 623 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: I'm kind of starting to see the appeal of just 624 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,640 Speaker 1: having a thirty dollar flat rate wherever your rent movies, 625 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:46,480 Speaker 1: being able to get these new movies when they come out, 626 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,960 Speaker 1: because when they start going to different streaming services, if 627 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 1: you don't have that service, you either have to sign up, 628 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: bug somebody for their password, or just find a way 629 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 1: to watch these movies. You get confused on what is 630 00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 1: available where. I had that same kind of thing once 631 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 1: King Cong came out and I was like, wait, um, 632 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 1: I canceled my HBO Max, so now I had to 633 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 1: get that back to watch this movie. So it is 634 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 1: kind of chaos right now. Everybody kind of figuring out 635 00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 1: how to adapt to being able to watch things at 636 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 1: home and just being able to have things out in 637 00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 1: the theaters. It's a little bit more complicated than we 638 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 1: all kind of thought. So this year will kind of 639 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: be shifting to this new kind of way of having 640 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 1: everything split apart, especially when big deals like this go down. 641 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 1: But excited to see where that one goes and how 642 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 1: it's now going to be on Netflix and then finally 643 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 1: in movie News. I did mention it earlier, but the 644 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 1: numbers are pretty great for God Delivers Kong now reaching 645 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 1: about two million dollars worldwide and basically the biggest pandemic 646 00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 1: movie to date. The others have been Wonder Woman and 647 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:49,080 Speaker 1: Tom and Jerry. I mean, we're really seeing Warner Brothers 648 00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 1: just kind of kill it right now. Those are all 649 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 1: three really big movies to come out, and all Warner 650 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 1: Brothers movies where I feel like they were the most 651 00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 1: kind of innovative and progressive and launching the same day 652 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 1: at home on HBO Max, and it's proving to be 653 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 1: pretty successful for them. I think everybody else is kind 654 00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 1: of hesitant to do that, but we want to watch movies. 655 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 1: We want to see them when they come out. We're 656 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,280 Speaker 1: kind of tired of things getting delayed so much, so 657 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:17,160 Speaker 1: I love that they just put out these movies, adapting 658 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 1: to the way things are and just kind of giving 659 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,240 Speaker 1: us as viewers what we want. The next one I'm 660 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:25,440 Speaker 1: excited to see from them is the Mortal Kombat reboot, 661 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 1: which has actually been pushed back a week because of 662 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,040 Speaker 1: God's deliver Suskong, so another one of their movies out 663 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 1: they didn't want it out around the same time. I 664 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 1: think a pretty good move there. But again, I just 665 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 1: want to watch Mortal Komment already because what they're doing 666 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 1: is basically, thirty days after it comes out on HBO Max, 667 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 1: it goes away. They're giving it kind of space to 668 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 1: breathe before this one comes out, So if you're waiting 669 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 1: for that one, you gotta wait another week. I'll have 670 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 1: that review on the podcast as soon as I'm able 671 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 1: to watch it. That's gonna do it for movie News. 672 00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:55,200 Speaker 1: But before I go, always got to give my shout 673 00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:57,200 Speaker 1: out of the week. This comes to anybody who sends 674 00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 1: me a d M a message on Facebook or Twitter, 675 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:03,920 Speaker 1: and this one is actually from Facebook. It's a comment 676 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 1: from Keith Due, who commented when I posted about Quentin 677 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 1: Tarantino's birthday. He said his favorite movie was Reservoire, Dogs 678 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 1: of Quentin Tarantino, and he said, hey, but really, any 679 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 1: of them are spectacular? Could I get a shout out 680 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 1: on the podcast? I love it and listen every week. 681 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 1: I just don't have Twitter, so Keith, looking out for 682 00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 1: you here? Oh, I look at all the Facebook comments, 683 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 1: so if you don't follow my Facebook page, it's just 684 00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 1: at my destro on Facebook. Also have an email here 685 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,000 Speaker 1: I wanted to share. My email is movie Mike d 686 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 1: at gmail dot com and it's from Kim. She writes, Hey, Mike, 687 00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:34,920 Speaker 1: I love the podcast, thanks for keeping me in the 688 00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 1: new on New Movies. I was listening to the episode 689 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 1: about Best Picture nominations. I haven't watched any of them yet, 690 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 1: but which one would you recommend that I start with. 691 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,720 Speaker 1: I also had a non movie related question, how many 692 00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: jobs do you have now? And how do you handle 693 00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:52,480 Speaker 1: doing them? In the podcast each week? Thanks kim So. 694 00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 1: First of all, when it comes to the Best Picture nominees, 695 00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 1: I think the one to start with if you haven't 696 00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 1: seen any of them is Promising Young Woman. I think 697 00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 1: overall that is the most just entertaining movie. No matter 698 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 1: what level of film fan you are, I think you 699 00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:09,000 Speaker 1: could watch that one and enjoy it. So if you 700 00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 1: haven't seen any of those yet, I would go with 701 00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 1: that one. The one I would say probably to skip 702 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:16,399 Speaker 1: overall or put it at the very bottom of your 703 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 1: list is make I think that one was just the 704 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:20,799 Speaker 1: least enjoyable for me, the most arts and the one 705 00:34:20,840 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 1: I just didn't really find myself wanting to even finish watching, 706 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,520 Speaker 1: and that one was on Netflix. Do but yeah, start 707 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 1: with Promising Young Woman. And to answer your second question, 708 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 1: how many jobs do I have now? I really can't 709 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:35,799 Speaker 1: count how many I have now. My primary job is 710 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:39,600 Speaker 1: a writer on the Bobby Bones Show. I also manage 711 00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,760 Speaker 1: and run the entire Nashville podcast network. We have about 712 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 1: ten shows here that I kind of oversee and also 713 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:48,400 Speaker 1: work with Bobby to find other new podcasts that we 714 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 1: like to bring onto the network, so it's kind of 715 00:34:50,200 --> 00:34:53,520 Speaker 1: managing that whole world. And I've since added a new 716 00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:57,440 Speaker 1: writing job where Bobby now does a weekly and then 717 00:34:57,480 --> 00:34:59,440 Speaker 1: every week I sit down and do this podcast on 718 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 1: my own. I'm a network and I've even added a 719 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:04,359 Speaker 1: new job recently which I'm writing for Bobby's new Twitch show, 720 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:06,359 Speaker 1: which is called On Time with Bobby Bones. A lot 721 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,600 Speaker 1: of that is just writing jokes, scripting out the entire show, 722 00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 1: and kind of finding things we can do on that, 723 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 1: which is a whole new adventure. If you haven't watched that, 724 00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:17,040 Speaker 1: you can actually listen to the last episode of the 725 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 1: Bobby Cast. We put the entire audio of that episode 726 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:23,359 Speaker 1: up as its own episode. So again, the Bobby Bones 727 00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:26,000 Speaker 1: Show is my main job. I have other writing jobs 728 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:28,239 Speaker 1: within that, like the Country Top thirty. I do a 729 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 1: little bit on the Women of My Heart Country. We 730 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:33,240 Speaker 1: have a night show. I have a lot of different jobs. 731 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:36,640 Speaker 1: It's just something that I've always kind of taken on 732 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 1: anything that was kind of thrown at me because at 733 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 1: one point I had no jobs and I was just 734 00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 1: trying to get myself into any way possible. So even 735 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,120 Speaker 1: if I didn't exactly know how to do one of 736 00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 1: these things, I would take it and figure it out. 737 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:51,360 Speaker 1: So that's kind of where I am right now. In 738 00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:53,959 Speaker 1: all of my jobs. Those pretty much keep me busy 739 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 1: throughout the entire week. But really one of my favorite 740 00:35:56,080 --> 00:35:58,120 Speaker 1: things just to do this podcast. It's the one thing 741 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 1: I kind of have complete creative control over and about 742 00:36:01,520 --> 00:36:04,040 Speaker 1: a topic that I'm the most passionate about. So I 743 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,759 Speaker 1: really appreciate everybody who listened to this podcast every single week, 744 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,240 Speaker 1: especially those who have been with me from the very beginning. 745 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:12,839 Speaker 1: I hope to keep doing this podcast as long as 746 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:15,719 Speaker 1: movies are a thing. Hopefully they never go away. Of 747 00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:18,200 Speaker 1: course they won't, and I'm really just excited to get 748 00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:20,880 Speaker 1: back into a movie theater again. So that is it 749 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:23,359 Speaker 1: for this week.
