Does it need to be about Thanksgiving? When 22 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,680 Speaker 2: does it need to be set? What does it need 23 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 2: to be about? Is it just about vibes? Is it 24 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 2: about content? Then we're going to go through each genre 25 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:40,040 Speaker 2: to create the ultimate Thanksgiving movie watch list, And finally 26 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 2: we're going to do a rapid fire pick of our 27 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,319 Speaker 2: favorite Thanksgiving TV episodes. 28 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 1: But first, previously on Okay Thanksgiving movies? What is a 29 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving movie? What constitutes a Thanksgiving movie? You've heard the 30 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: debate is die Christmas movie? I say yes? So with 31 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 1: the same kind of thing in mind, what constitutes a 32 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,239 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving movie? Joining us today, super producer Joel will be 33 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 1: shared with lots of thoughts, lots of thoughts about movies, 34 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 1: films in general, about the great art form of the 35 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: cinema and how that great human art form intersects with 36 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: the uniquely American holiday of Thanksgiving. So first the debate, 37 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:38,079 Speaker 1: what makes a Thanksgiving movie? Tell me one, I put 38 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 1: it to the group, how central to the plot must 39 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving be? 40 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 2: I don't think it needs to be said. I don't 41 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 2: think it needs to be central forefront. I don't think it. 42 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 1: Let's say quick quote, Let's take a quick quote, and 43 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: then let's and then we'll have people give their give 44 00:02:55,720 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 1: their opinions. Who thinks it doesn't need to be central 45 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: raise their hand, Okay, that's me and Rosie. So Joelle, 46 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: since you are it must be central person, give us 47 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: your give us your take. And what does central mean? 48 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:14,959 Speaker 3: So to me, central to the plot means it can't 49 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:16,679 Speaker 3: just appear in the movie. You can't be like a 50 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 3: Thanksgiving scene or a mention of It must revolve around 51 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 3: the idea of Thanksgiving, which to me can mean a 52 00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 3: lot of things. I don't buy into the American law 53 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:32,359 Speaker 3: of pilgrims fed indigenous people because that's stupid. I do 54 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 3: love family gathering over food that makes them almost unconscious. 55 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 3: I do love football and the sports element of it. 56 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 3: I love the competition that is cooking the grandest meal 57 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 3: of the year. Like there's a lot of thematic elements 58 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 3: of Thanksgiving that to me are pretty vital. I love 59 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 3: Thanksgiving as just a gathering holiday. And I think that 60 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 3: if you only have about a week of Thanksgiving right, like, 61 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 3: if you think about it, Christmas is about months long 62 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 3: in America, not other people do it. We get started 63 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 3: very early. Our shops change, the music changes, we get 64 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 3: the fakes know everywhere, like we love Christmas, it's about 65 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 3: two months. Halloween is about a month long. Because you're 66 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 3: picking your costume, you're talking about it, You've got thirty 67 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 3: one days of Halloween, you're watching your movies. You could 68 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 3: do a thirteen days of Halloween if you wanted to. 69 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 3: There's some variety depending on how you choose to celebrate. 70 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,720 Speaker 3: But that's what hallng. You have Thanksgiving, you good a week, 71 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 3: one week to prepare your meals, so one week to 72 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 3: watch your movies, and then it's jammed in between two 73 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 3: great freaking holidays. So there's just a lot of time 74 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,480 Speaker 3: to celebrate. So if you're doing a Thanksgiving movie, like, 75 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 3: let's make it central to Thanksgiving, otherwise you have all 76 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 3: of autumn to watch it. There plenty of time. 77 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 2: Okay, I think that's a good argument. 78 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie Rosie Europe said, not central, not 79 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 1: Rosie night. 80 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 2: But I'm English in case you didn't know, right, And 81 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 2: I do love Christmas in case you didn't know. So 82 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 2: I look, I don't get Thanksgiving. I don't think there's 83 00:04:58,120 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 2: very much to be giving thanksful. 84 00:04:59,600 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 1: I do. 85 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 2: I agree it is correct, beautiful time to gather with 86 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 2: your family. I do agree with that. And the meal 87 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 2: is very similar to English Christmas. So for me, I'm 88 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 2: more of a Vib's movie watcher on this holiday, Like 89 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 2: I want a movie that makes me feel cozy that 90 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 2: I can enjoy to watch with my family. Now, if 91 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 2: it has a Thanksgiving twist like some of the movies 92 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,679 Speaker 2: we will be talking about, especially in the horror genre, 93 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 2: that can entice me. But I'm not gonna watch like 94 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 2: a Hallmark Thanksgiving movie, even though those do exist. But 95 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 2: I will watch like one hundred Hallmark Christmas movies. So 96 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 2: for me, the centrality of Thanksgiving is different. But I 97 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 2: am a seasonal movie watcher, like I have a TV 98 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 2: antennette as if you listen to this podcast, you know, 99 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 2: and I always will be watching when Easter comes round, 100 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:45,719 Speaker 2: I won't be in church, but believe I'll be watching 101 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,160 Speaker 2: every Jesus theme movie, like I will just be like, 102 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 2: it's Easter, baby, I gotta watch this four hour Jesus 103 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,679 Speaker 2: special for coming away. 104 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 1: You thought he was gone, Honey, he's back. 105 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 2: I guess what. He's back, And it's the same, Like 106 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 2: I will watch movies of this of this in this 107 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 2: space around the Thanksgiving time, but I don't think it's 108 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 2: central that said, I do think out of all the 109 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 2: seasonal movies, I do believe that there are certain movies 110 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 2: in this category that are the best of the best. 111 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 2: Like I actually do think when it comes to movies 112 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 2: that are about Thanksgiving compared to movies that are about Christmas, 113 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,920 Speaker 2: I think Thanksgiving does have some that are up there 114 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 2: with the best of Christmas movies, Halloween movies and everything else. 115 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,040 Speaker 2: So not central to me, but I understand why people 116 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:34,600 Speaker 2: enjoy them. 117 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: Here's my tick. First of all, I want to say 118 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 1: that Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. I'm from New York 119 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 1: and I didn't know everything, and you know, as a 120 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 1: New Yorker, I think one of my favorite things about 121 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:54,840 Speaker 1: this particular holiday season is seeing the diversity of New 122 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: York City and seeing that everybody does something and they 123 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: do it in our own way, which is wonderfully you know, 124 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: like we cut it off from the kind of indigenous 125 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 1: propaganda roots, the American propaganda roots of the thing. What 126 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: happens on the ground is you got all these different 127 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 1: families from all these different places cooking their own things. 128 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: Sometimes they have. 129 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 3: Turkey involved in it. 130 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,680 Speaker 1: Sometimes turkey is like off to the side with lots 131 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 1: of other fair and I just love that about the holiday, 132 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: how every culture makes it their own. That. Now, let 133 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: me say this, how central is the question. I believe 134 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: personally that what constitutes a Thanksgiving movie is one the 135 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: movie is set during the Thanksgiving season, which I defined 136 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:49,720 Speaker 1: to be November post October. 137 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 2: Okay, I like that. It's a full it's a full movie. 138 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: It's a fall movie, and it can be it can 139 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 1: bleed into Christmas as the as we all know Thanksgiving. 140 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 1: You know, just from a commerce sense, we are already 141 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 1: looking towards Christmas by the time this season or two. 142 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:12,560 Speaker 1: The general themes of Thanksgiving, gathering your loved ones around you, 143 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: making the best of things with the people who are 144 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 1: around you, traveling, those kinds of themes. If those kind 145 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: of themes are present in a movie set in November, 146 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 1: I think that's a Thanksgiving movie. And there is an 147 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:35,199 Speaker 1: obviously extra credit for do I see a turkey? Do 148 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 1: I see a big family meal? I like that travel 149 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: is the word Thanksgiving actually spoken? Like obviously those things 150 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:48,439 Speaker 1: increase the value. And then to just widen in a 151 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 1: little bit, does the film take place during that particular 152 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: November season. Does it involve either found family, actual family, 153 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: or the like and three, does it involve something that 154 00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:11,079 Speaker 1: we associate with the experience of Thanksgiving. This widens it 155 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 1: to a particular kind of sports movie, which is the 156 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,079 Speaker 1: college football. 157 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 2: True true, true, true. I do think that counts the thame, 158 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 2: and so I think that also widens it. 159 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 1: So those are that's my particular take. I don't think 160 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 1: Thanksgiving per se needs to be central, that the characters 161 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:29,439 Speaker 1: need to say, well, I gotta get hope for Thanksgiving. 162 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 1: But I do think it has to have certain thematic 163 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 1: markers that align it with the idea of Thanksgiving. Much 164 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,839 Speaker 1: in the same way that I consider Children of Men 165 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 1: to be a Christmas movie. 166 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 2: I love that that's a Christmas movie. 167 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,680 Speaker 3: When we get to Christmas movies we're gonna have to have. 168 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 2: We're gonna talk about that because I think it would 169 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 2: be so fun to make a movie of make a 170 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 2: list of like the most depressing Christmas. 171 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 1: I think that's a tremendously hopeful movie in the end. 172 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: That is also. 173 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,559 Speaker 2: And it's one of the best movies ever made. It 174 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 2: is no question. 175 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 1: Let's not get sidelined, but it is it rings with 176 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 1: the power of prophecy. 177 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 3: That movie, yeah, horrifyingly. 178 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:19,559 Speaker 1: So. Now let's get into it. Let's get into what 179 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: films do we how do we want to do this? 180 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 1: Do we want to go genre? Do we want to 181 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: give our favorites? Or do we want to do it? 182 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 3: So I thought we could go by genre, maybe just 183 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 3: calling out the titles and then many of them if 184 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,200 Speaker 3: any of us wants. If the goal is the ultimate list, 185 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 3: we'll just pick which one. 186 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: Should go on the list of the Okay, let's start 187 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:46,680 Speaker 1: with horror. It's a a genre which I think only 188 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:51,199 Speaker 1: recently we've begun to truly associate with Thanksgiving. As the 189 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 1: twenty twenty three's titular Thanksgiving. 190 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,959 Speaker 2: Which began as you know, a fake tray law in 191 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 2: the grind House double feature by Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez, 192 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,079 Speaker 2: directed by Eli Roth, it dove into the breach of 193 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:14,079 Speaker 2: the market in efficiency that is Thanksgiving horror movies. I'm 194 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 2: not gonna lie. This is a great movie, guys. I'm sorry. 195 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 2: It's good Wheelhouse, lots of good kills, very funny characters 196 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 2: you actually like to spend time with. I'm not a 197 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:28,720 Speaker 2: fan of Eli Roth as a person, but I am 198 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 2: a fan of this movie. It's great. 199 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 3: I had a good time watching it. I think the turkey, 200 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 3: the woman being formed into a turkey to be roasted 201 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 3: in the island, will stay with me for a long time. 202 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 2: But I love the. 203 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 3: It was horrifying, but the woman who was like rammed 204 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 3: into a dumpster and then like launched onto the wall, 205 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 3: Like the deaths are truly over the top. It's funny 206 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 3: in such a ridiculous way. You get like a giant 207 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:58,679 Speaker 3: Thanksgiving paraded that's like creates an obstacle for them to 208 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 3: try to get around. Like set pieces really work in 209 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:03,839 Speaker 3: this film, and it's a fun one to watch with 210 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 3: your family at Thanksgiving. Like as far as like if 211 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 3: we put this on while Grandma's chilling and still working 212 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:11,160 Speaker 3: in the kitchen, she might be disturbed when she comes 213 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 3: out of the kitchen, But as long as Grandma's still. 214 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 2: Working in the back, Grandma and watch a horror movie. 215 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:23,439 Speaker 1: It's a wonderful modern slasher with the kind of grit 216 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:28,559 Speaker 1: and visceral violence that you associate with Eli Roth. But 217 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 1: I know that this is a movie where someone gets 218 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 1: baked to a turkey, but but without the You know 219 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,960 Speaker 1: a lot of Eli Ros's other movies which I enjoy, 220 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 1: and cruelty to them, they make me feel bad on 221 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 1: a cruelty level, like the the where you're like, God, 222 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 1: the mind who came up with this is troubling. This 223 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: doesn't have that. So while it balanced, it is, it balances, 224 00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: it definitely is is. The is not the movie that 225 00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 1: you like, Grandma, sit down and watch this, but I 226 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:04,959 Speaker 1: think for everybody who's younger than grandma, they might enjoy it. 227 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 2: I agree. 228 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: Next up, Thanks Killing the trilogy, the Thanks Killing Trilogy. 229 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 2: So glad that you put this, Joel, you are legend 230 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 2: if you haven't seen ThanksKilling.

I it's a movie that 281 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 3: I watched the trailer for and I was like, I 282 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 3: might give this a shot, but I don't know. If 283 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 3: it's like a has to make the vos, I will 284 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 3: say I so. 285 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 2: I too have not watched this yet, but I do 286 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 2: really like the series this is from, which is the 287 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 2: Hulu horror anthology series Into the Dark, And they actually 288 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 2: did a bunch of different seasonal movies. One of them 289 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 2: was a New Year's movie that I thought was really 290 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 2: really great, like it was like a take on wellness culture. 291 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 2: And kind of like a slasher in that vein And 292 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 2: this is like a woman who invites pilgrim reenactors to 293 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 2: stay with her family to teach them a lesson, but 294 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 2: they just like won't break character and then things kind 295 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 2: of turned deadly. So I think it sounds like a 296 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 2: fun premise. Maybe we'll do like a little X ray 297 00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 2: vision watch party for that one. Ooh, I will talk 298 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,040 Speaker 2: about the final movie on our horror list because I 299 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 2: didn't love this movie. Yeah, it's a great movie if 300 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 2: you're into slashers. This is definitely not one for grandma 301 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 2: because this does not have that comedic side of the 302 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 2: slash six slasher. Depressing, dark, bleak slasher set on Thanksgiving 303 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 2: and it's about a woman and her son who are 304 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:17,720 Speaker 2: like stalked by the unhinged twin brother that was in 305 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:22,359 Speaker 2: a mental asylum and it's very it's very like Halloween. 306 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,919 Speaker 2: It has Ted Raimi in it. It was directed by 307 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 2: John Grisma and written by Bruce Rubin. Like it's not 308 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 2: a well known one, but it is really cool. Starts 309 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:38,679 Speaker 2: with a really great, like all time great drive in sequence, 310 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 2: and it's just like a really depressing but very good movie. 311 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 2: And it has like one of the bleakest endings of 312 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 2: all times. So I would say again, if you're looking 313 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 2: for a depressing movie to watch this year, put this on. 314 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 2: This can double up with a Children of Men. 315 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 1: It reminds me of for the slasher fans out there, 316 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 1: of the early eighties Canadian horror film. My Bloody Valentine 317 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:10,639 Speaker 1: has got some similarities, definitely similar that you flash for 318 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: that kind of Halloween thing where you open in the 319 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:15,520 Speaker 1: past and you flash forward and the killings begin again 320 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:17,440 Speaker 1: in the modern day. It's got a very bleak ending 321 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,920 Speaker 1: as well, My Bloody So if you like My Bloody Valentine, 322 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 1: you haven't seen blood Rage, you will enjoy blood. 323 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,639 Speaker 2: I was going to say, also, if you always revisit 324 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:32,280 Speaker 2: Black Christmas, yes, every year, this is a very similar 325 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,600 Speaker 2: kind of response to that, but in Thanksgiving.

And I very much enjoyed watching 353 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 2: this movie. When I first watched it last year, I 354 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:29,679 Speaker 2: thought it was a very fun, silly movie for the season. 355 00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:36,680 Speaker 1: Next up a Jodie Foster picture. Oh hell yeah, Home 356 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 1: for the Holidays.

Also, I 364 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:06,440 Speaker 2: would say as somebody and Joelle, I know you're in 365 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 2: this space too, Jason. You also began this way as 366 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:12,439 Speaker 2: people who have had to write many articles about different 367 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 2: times of the year and stuff like that, believe this 368 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 2: is like a perennial, like maybe five six years ago, 369 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 2: this was the Thanksgiving movie. Like there really wasn't that 370 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 2: many conversations around any other movies rather than this and planes, 371 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 2: trains and automobiles. And so that was the first time 372 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 2: I ever watched this was when I was researching about 373 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 2: writing a list about Thanksgiving movies, and I just thought 374 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 2: this was like such a good, sweet, layered movie. Like 375 00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 2: a lot of movies like this are very simplistic and 376 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 2: they don't necessarily have that somber nature or that reality 377 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 2: of the kind of melancholy of going home for the Holidays, 378 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 2: but no surprises. Holly Hunter Jodi Foster. That's a team 379 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 2: that you can't question. And it's just a very delightful movie. 380 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:01,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's funny and complex in the way that 381 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 1: families can be complex. 382 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:03,920 Speaker 3: It is quite it is. 383 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: There are notes of of melancholy throughout this film that 384 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 1: I think makes it, uh makes it unique.

Which is 987 00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:08,560 Speaker 2: basically like on the twenty six you're supposed to like 988 00:57:08,680 --> 00:57:12,760 Speaker 2: donate gifts to those in need, but really most people 989 00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:16,800 Speaker 2: nowadays it's definitely like English Black Friday, but like pre 990 00:57:16,960 --> 00:57:19,440 Speaker 2: Black Friday, like it's always when the sales are off 991 00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:26,360 Speaker 2: and agreed. And also I think as well they they 992 00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:29,040 Speaker 2: do like it's it's also was hilariously a part of 993 00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:33,640 Speaker 2: just trying to make sure that Christmas and then the 994 00:57:34,400 --> 00:57:36,320 Speaker 2: bank holiday that would follow it would always be on 995 00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:38,960 Speaker 2: like weekdays to make sure that people are getting time off. 996 00:57:39,360 --> 00:57:43,160 Speaker 2: So yeah, but really nobody knows why it's called Boxing Day. 997 00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:47,080 Speaker 2: That's just there's lots of funny like ephemeral rumors, but 998 00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:50,280 Speaker 2: it is like a big part of British Christmas tradition 999 00:57:50,520 --> 00:57:53,000 Speaker 2: and it is nice because it basically just means like 1000 00:57:53,720 --> 00:57:56,560 Speaker 2: in England, there's always great TV programming on Boxing Day. 1001 00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:59,880 Speaker 2: It's recognized as like a continuation and it's just like 1002 00:58:00,120 --> 00:58:02,880 Speaker 2: ie stayed to hang out with your family and eat leftovers, 1003 00:58:03,200 --> 00:58:07,880 Speaker 2: so it's just like official hangout day basically. But yeah, 1004 00:58:07,880 --> 00:58:09,560 Speaker 2: and that is where I got to see a lot 1005 00:58:09,600 --> 00:58:12,960 Speaker 2: of classic movies like The Rocketeer, one of my old favorites, 1006 00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:16,400 Speaker 2: returned to OZ like they would always do lots of 1007 00:58:16,520 --> 00:58:19,040 Speaker 2: reruns on those days, So it was definitely like a 1008 00:58:19,120 --> 00:58:20,640 Speaker 2: big a big deal for me. 1009 00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:25,160 Speaker 1: Finally in this category. Another big deal for me, A 1010 00:58:25,320 --> 00:58:30,240 Speaker 1: modern classic Greta Gerwigs. Some Little Women truly. 1011 00:58:30,320 --> 00:58:33,360 Speaker 2: Am changed my life, no joke, a great one. 1012 00:58:33,640 --> 00:58:35,800 Speaker 1: I had, no wait, how did you change your life? 1013 00:58:35,880 --> 00:58:38,760 Speaker 2: Have no interest in Little Women in England. Little Women 1014 00:58:38,920 --> 00:58:40,680 Speaker 2: is not a book they give you to read. It's 1015 00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:43,360 Speaker 2: not part of the literary canon. It is not part 1016 00:58:43,400 --> 00:58:46,280 Speaker 2: of growing up. I went and reviewed it for IGN, 1017 00:58:46,880 --> 00:58:50,960 Speaker 2: and I walked onto that studio lot in the morning like, oh, 1018 00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:54,040 Speaker 2: because I wasn't a huge like Lady Bird, didn't really 1019 00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:55,200 Speaker 2: hit for me in the same way it did for 1020 00:58:55,280 --> 00:58:58,040 Speaker 2: other people. And I was in there and I'm jostling around, 1021 00:58:58,160 --> 00:59:00,640 Speaker 2: little mumbling in my mouth. And by the end of 1022 00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:04,800 Speaker 2: the movie where they're binding that book, I am just 1023 00:59:04,920 --> 00:59:08,160 Speaker 2: like in absolute floods of tears. Now I have watched 1024 00:59:08,320 --> 00:59:11,480 Speaker 2: every version of Little Women. I love Little Women. Yes, 1025 00:59:11,520 --> 00:59:13,880 Speaker 2: it's still my favorite version. Though there was a really, 1026 00:59:14,000 --> 00:59:16,920 Speaker 2: really great I think it was unbelievably I think it 1027 00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:18,880 Speaker 2: was Lifetime. But there was a version that they did 1028 00:59:19,040 --> 00:59:22,120 Speaker 2: or maybe PBS Masterpiece actually, but there was a version 1029 00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:26,320 Speaker 2: they did that had Ethan Hunt's daughter in it. I 1030 00:59:26,360 --> 00:59:30,200 Speaker 2: mean not Hunt. Oh, that's a fake character from Mission Impossible. 1031 00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:40,439 Speaker 2: It had it had ethan very famous guy, his daughter 1032 00:59:40,600 --> 00:59:43,440 Speaker 2: is and Hawk's daughter in it, a real person. 1033 00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:48,160 Speaker 1: What if it had what if it was actually part 1034 00:59:48,200 --> 00:59:49,440 Speaker 1: of the Mission Impossible. 1035 00:59:50,920 --> 00:59:52,840 Speaker 2: Let's talk about that, because I want that. 1036 00:59:53,240 --> 00:59:54,439 Speaker 1: I want that to be real. 1037 00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:58,680 Speaker 2: But there was a really good version that almost is 1038 00:59:58,760 --> 01:00:00,160 Speaker 2: like up to this for me, which was like a 1039 01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:04,600 Speaker 2: four part mini series thing yea, and she played. I 1040 01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:07,040 Speaker 2: do love that version. But because I think This Little 1041 01:00:07,080 --> 01:00:09,240 Speaker 2: Woman was the first one that I ever saw and 1042 01:00:09,360 --> 01:00:13,320 Speaker 2: like properly watched, I just love it so much. Also, hilariously, 1043 01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:15,400 Speaker 2: I showed it to Nick to try and be like, look, 1044 01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:17,200 Speaker 2: I love Little Women now, and he was like, what 1045 01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:19,080 Speaker 2: you're talking about? But then he was like, wait a minute. 1046 01:00:19,280 --> 01:00:23,520 Speaker 2: This entire movie was filmed in Harvard, where I grew up, 1047 01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:26,360 Speaker 2: like in this tiny little town, and so that was 1048 01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:29,320 Speaker 2: really surreal for him. But yeah, I love this movie. 1049 01:00:29,400 --> 01:00:31,400 Speaker 2: I watch it every year. I watch it more than that. 1050 01:00:31,640 --> 01:00:34,600 Speaker 2: I just think it's an unbelievable piece of filmmaking. And 1051 01:00:34,720 --> 01:00:37,120 Speaker 2: it introduced me to this great literary canon and I'm 1052 01:00:37,160 --> 01:00:40,360 Speaker 2: more like in depth understanding of Louis and may Olcott, 1053 01:00:40,400 --> 01:00:43,120 Speaker 2: who she was the radical nature of a lot of 1054 01:00:43,200 --> 01:00:45,400 Speaker 2: what her and her family did. So yeah, no, I 1055 01:00:45,600 --> 01:00:47,120 Speaker 2: love this one. I think it's one of the best 1056 01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:49,360 Speaker 2: movies made in the last like twenty years. 1057 01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:53,280 Speaker 3: I love the Internet conspiracy. Conspiracy is too strong word, 1058 01:00:53,320 --> 01:00:57,160 Speaker 3: but like theory that the twenty nineteen version of Little 1059 01:00:57,200 --> 01:01:00,120 Speaker 3: Women is a fall film, while the nineteen ninety for 1060 01:01:00,560 --> 01:01:01,720 Speaker 3: version of Little Women. 1061 01:01:01,720 --> 01:01:07,680 Speaker 2: Is absolutely right. Sometimes you're just right. 1062 01:01:08,160 --> 01:01:11,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm absolutely embracing this theory with my whole heart. 1063 01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:13,840 Speaker 3: This is for for the girls who want to be 1064 01:01:14,080 --> 01:01:16,800 Speaker 3: writers when they grow up. Aluisi Alcott really tapped into 1065 01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:18,960 Speaker 3: our spirits. It gave us a lot to hope for 1066 01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:22,280 Speaker 3: and to strive for. And Greta's version of the ending 1067 01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:25,320 Speaker 3: of that film that's so wink nudge yeah, so about 1068 01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:27,720 Speaker 3: like what Luisa May had to do to sell these books. 1069 01:01:27,800 --> 01:01:30,880 Speaker 3: I was like, Wow, it's really it's a powerful movie. 1070 01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:32,680 Speaker 3: You can't help it tear up. I too, was like, 1071 01:01:33,560 --> 01:01:35,440 Speaker 3: I already have a perfect version of this movie. No 1072 01:01:35,520 --> 01:01:37,680 Speaker 3: one tempted me. I was very crotchety about it, and 1073 01:01:37,760 --> 01:01:40,000 Speaker 3: then I finally watched it. I said, I I get why. 1074 01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:43,160 Speaker 2: It was so it's so good, Like I think it 1075 01:01:43,240 --> 01:01:46,000 Speaker 2: was honestly that it wasn't as sweet, but the oscars 1076 01:01:46,080 --> 01:01:47,360 Speaker 2: like it's so fucking good. 1077 01:01:48,040 --> 01:01:54,120 Speaker 1: I am of the personal opinion that stories like uh 1078 01:01:54,880 --> 01:01:58,479 Speaker 1: like Little Women should just come out every fifteen years. 1079 01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:02,080 Speaker 1: I just do another and this generation just do another. 1080 01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:04,360 Speaker 2: Grea same with like Secret Garden. I don't know if 1081 01:02:04,360 --> 01:02:10,640 Speaker 2: that was, but like, just yes, Christmas, Carroll guys a 1082 01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:14,080 Speaker 2: classic ver reason. This will be on our manifesto of like, 1083 01:02:14,160 --> 01:02:19,560 Speaker 2: how can you make movies? Do another one? Uh. 1084 01:02:19,960 --> 01:02:25,120 Speaker 1: Finally and importantly, uh, indigenous movies to watch during this 1085 01:02:25,920 --> 01:02:29,080 Speaker 1: holiday season. Let's start with you can watch it on 1086 01:02:29,120 --> 01:02:32,920 Speaker 1: Apple TV Plus right now. Fancy Dance, Rosie. You believe 1087 01:02:33,320 --> 01:02:35,640 Speaker 1: this is an oscar, This is an awards season. 1088 01:02:36,240 --> 01:02:40,320 Speaker 2: It should be an awards season, gem. I believe it 1089 01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:42,800 Speaker 2: should be getting the same kind of hype that a 1090 01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:46,880 Speaker 2: movie like Lady Bird gets or something. It's basically a 1091 01:02:47,160 --> 01:02:50,800 Speaker 2: troubled sister tale, a bit of a road trip, and 1092 01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:55,640 Speaker 2: it's got Lily Gladstone, and it's basically just such a great, 1093 01:02:55,880 --> 01:02:58,160 Speaker 2: beautifully made movie. And I feel like in a few 1094 01:02:58,240 --> 01:03:00,440 Speaker 2: years it's gonna be one of those movies where I've like, 1095 01:03:00,600 --> 01:03:03,920 Speaker 2: why didn't this win all these awards? Because it's basically 1096 01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:09,600 Speaker 2: about the realities of being an Indigenous person. It's about 1097 01:03:10,160 --> 01:03:13,600 Speaker 2: Indigenous women going missing, It's about Indigenous people in the 1098 01:03:13,640 --> 01:03:18,720 Speaker 2: foster care system. It is about doing something like really 1099 01:03:18,840 --> 01:03:23,080 Speaker 2: really important with your family that no one else can understand. 1100 01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:26,400 Speaker 2: And it is also like it's not like an easy watch, 1101 01:03:27,040 --> 01:03:30,040 Speaker 2: but it is like a really important watch, and I 1102 01:03:30,240 --> 01:03:33,200 Speaker 2: just think it's ridiculous it's not. I was kind of 1103 01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:38,960 Speaker 2: hoping that after Lily got snubbed by the Oscars for 1104 01:03:39,200 --> 01:03:44,600 Speaker 2: her starring role in the Martin Scorsese film Killers the 1105 01:03:44,640 --> 01:03:47,120 Speaker 2: Flower Moon, I was hoping that this would be the 1106 01:03:47,240 --> 01:03:50,280 Speaker 2: makeup you know sometimes they do the makeup Oscar. I 1107 01:03:50,520 --> 01:03:52,840 Speaker 2: was kind of hoping, but that did not happen, and 1108 01:03:53,000 --> 01:03:56,720 Speaker 2: I just I still think it's like shocking that it 1109 01:03:56,880 --> 01:04:00,840 Speaker 2: wasn't more acclaimed a newer movie came out this year 1110 01:04:00,880 --> 01:04:02,840 Speaker 2: that I also think this is a fun movie. This 1111 01:04:02,960 --> 01:04:06,560 Speaker 2: one is fun, and I do think has like a 1112 01:04:06,760 --> 01:04:10,360 Speaker 2: wider audience potential, and I think it's going to find 1113 01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:13,080 Speaker 2: that audience on Netflix. The thing about Fancy Dance, Apple 1114 01:04:13,120 --> 01:04:16,440 Speaker 2: TV plus everything on there is fantastic, honestly, but like 1115 01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:19,960 Speaker 2: nobody has it compared to like Netflix, where there's a 1116 01:04:20,040 --> 01:04:23,280 Speaker 2: lot more up and down in the nature of quality, 1117 01:04:23,360 --> 01:04:25,480 Speaker 2: but a lot of people have it. I hope Brisbell 1118 01:04:25,560 --> 01:04:29,600 Speaker 2: finds its audience, just like a good sports movie, which 1119 01:04:29,640 --> 01:04:32,240 Speaker 2: shouldn't shouldn't we all love a good sports movie. Isn't 1120 01:04:32,240 --> 01:04:35,760 Speaker 2: that exactly what we were talking about? Like, it's based 1121 01:04:35,800 --> 01:04:38,920 Speaker 2: on a true story, two different true life accounts, and 1122 01:04:39,040 --> 01:04:42,280 Speaker 2: it is just like, yeah, I just, I just I was. 1123 01:04:42,400 --> 01:04:44,840 Speaker 2: I thought this was a really great movie that kind 1124 01:04:44,880 --> 01:04:47,560 Speaker 2: of played with the notions of what we expect from 1125 01:04:47,600 --> 01:04:50,960 Speaker 2: a sports movie, but is not an expected story. 1126 01:04:51,960 --> 01:04:54,880 Speaker 1: Next up a movie that should almost be on our 1127 01:04:55,000 --> 01:05:01,640 Speaker 1: first category. This is the indigenous horror film Blood Quantum. 1128 01:05:01,880 --> 01:05:05,040 Speaker 2: Yes, made by They're Sadly Departed Jeff Barnaby. He was 1129 01:05:05,120 --> 01:05:08,280 Speaker 2: just such a wonderful person. They're a fantastic filmmaker. It's 1130 01:05:08,360 --> 01:05:11,400 Speaker 2: on shutter. I recommend this movie like at least once 1131 01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:13,400 Speaker 2: a year, but it really is that good. It's about 1132 01:05:13,520 --> 01:05:16,680 Speaker 2: a zombie apocalypse where the only people who are not 1133 01:05:16,800 --> 01:05:19,920 Speaker 2: impacted are people who live on the mickmh res And 1134 01:05:20,040 --> 01:05:22,360 Speaker 2: it is so good and it is just a brutal 1135 01:05:22,560 --> 01:05:28,160 Speaker 2: ninety minute horror classic and I love it. And yeah, RIPJFF, 1136 01:05:28,680 --> 01:05:30,480 Speaker 2: you are missed. This movie is incredible. 1137 01:05:31,040 --> 01:05:37,080 Speaker 1: Next up when Sundance, when the Sundance Awards, when the 1138 01:05:37,160 --> 01:05:42,760 Speaker 1: Sundance Film Festival was really starting to in the late 1139 01:05:42,920 --> 01:05:45,640 Speaker 1: nineties early two thousands. This is one of the films 1140 01:05:45,680 --> 01:05:48,560 Speaker 1: that I think you closely associate with that movement. It's 1141 01:05:48,600 --> 01:05:51,600 Speaker 1: a great movie. Smoke signals, this is a wonderful picture. Welle, 1142 01:05:52,080 --> 01:05:53,200 Speaker 1: I love this movie. 1143 01:05:53,560 --> 01:05:55,120 Speaker 2: I love this movie so much. 1144 01:05:55,280 --> 01:06:00,120 Speaker 3: This was Rothy's pictures. I completely It's. 1145 01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:02,840 Speaker 2: Such a great movie. It's like to come in with 1146 01:06:02,960 --> 01:06:05,480 Speaker 2: a little bit of a little bit of a take, 1147 01:06:05,600 --> 01:06:07,680 Speaker 2: you know, when it's Thanksgiving, I'm like, gotta talk about 1148 01:06:07,680 --> 01:06:10,040 Speaker 2: some Indigenous movies.

They talk 1156 01:06:29,040 --> 01:06:32,919 Speaker 3: about this movie being like a seminal moment for them 1157 01:06:33,000 --> 01:06:35,320 Speaker 3: that really changed their lives or inspire them to get 1158 01:06:35,320 --> 01:06:38,160 Speaker 3: into filmmaking or encourage them to do that and It's 1159 01:06:38,160 --> 01:06:41,560 Speaker 3: such a beautiful film about like friendship and like coming 1160 01:06:41,640 --> 01:06:42,920 Speaker 3: together and it's f. 1161 01:06:45,080 --> 01:06:45,120 Speaker 1: Y. 1162 01:06:45,640 --> 01:06:47,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's don't. 1163 01:06:47,120 --> 01:06:48,840 Speaker 2: Get to be funny.

I wait for them all year. I 1178 01:08:11,480 --> 01:08:13,080 Speaker 3: think it was last season where they didn't do one 1179 01:08:13,160 --> 01:08:15,040 Speaker 3: and I was stark, raving mad.

Bob's Thanksgiving, 1195 01:08:57,320 --> 01:09:00,920 Speaker 3: which might be controversial. It's not everyone loves in a nursing. 1196 01:09:01,160 --> 01:09:04,840 Speaker 2: That's the one I've been told Jerkima cann is very popular. 1197 01:09:05,920 --> 01:09:09,920 Speaker 3: That's the one where Bob keeps making Thanksgiving turkeys and 1198 01:09:10,280 --> 01:09:13,040 Speaker 3: somebody is putting them in toilets and can't figure out 1199 01:09:13,080 --> 01:09:16,200 Speaker 3: who or why it is driving him mad.
