00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,400
Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome back to movie Mike's Movie Podcast. I

2
00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:05,240
Speaker 1: am your host Movie Mike. Today, I want to talk

3
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:08,039
Speaker 1: about films with tiny budgets that went on to have

4
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:11,639
Speaker 1: huge box office success. I have twelve of the most

5
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:16,080
Speaker 1: profitable movies of all time. In the movie review, we'll

6
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:20,079
Speaker 1: be talking about The Invite with Seth Rogan and Olivia Wilde.

7
00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:23,520
Speaker 1: If you love movies that induce anxiety, this is going

8
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:24,880
Speaker 1: to be the one for you. If you like going

9
00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 1: to a theater or even watching it at home and

10
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 1: the whole time you're like, oh my gosh, this movie

11
00:00:30,120 --> 00:00:32,879
Speaker 1: is stressing me out. This might be the one to

12
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:34,639
Speaker 1: really do it for you, because that's what it did

13
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 1: for me. And in the trailer park, I will be

14
00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: blind reacting to the Avengers Doomsday trailer. I recorded this

15
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:44,199
Speaker 1: back last week when the trailer first dropped last Monday.

16
00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,239
Speaker 1: I'll give you my raw reaction and predictions on what

17
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,120
Speaker 1: is going on with the Avengers. Thank you for being here,

18
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:52,560
Speaker 1: thank you for being subscribed. Shout out to the Monday

19
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:56,279
Speaker 1: Morning Movie crew. And now let's talk movies.

20
00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:04,320
Speaker 2: Podcast Network Movie Podcast Today, we're talking about all the bees,

21
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 2: the business, the bucks, and the blockbusters of Hollywood, I

22
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 2: have twelve extraordinary films that had relatively small budgets.

23
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,040
Speaker 1: All combined, these twelve movies cost ten million dollars to make,

24
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: which is unheard of. Typically a normal Hollywood movie probably

25
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: cost about sixty five to eighty five million dollars for

26
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,760
Speaker 1: a big studio production. Ten million dollars which is what

27
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 1: all these twelve movies combined costs to produce. And they

28
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: went on to make millions and millions of dollars at

29
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 1: the box office. So we'll talk about each movie how

30
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 1: much of a return on investment they had, and I'll

31
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 1: give you some of my thoughts on all these movies.

32
00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: Whether I like them or not, I kind of appreciate

33
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 1: them all because if they can defy the odds and

34
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 1: make a statement in Hollywood on a small budget. And

35
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 1: number twelve, we have My Big Fat Greek Wedding that

36
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: came out back in two thousand and two. The movie

37
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 1: costs five million dollars to make and went on to

38
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 1: earn three hundred and sixty nine million dollars at the

39
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 1: box office. That is a seventy four times return on investment.

40
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:18,079
Speaker 1: This is the small little rom com that could. This

41
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 1: is a movie that I was exposed to later in life,

42
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 1: and it wasn't until Kelsey told me how much she

43
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 1: loved this movie. I was like, I've never seen it.

44
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 1: She was like, you've never seen it. This was one

45
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 1: of those movies for her that we had to watch immediately,

46
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,359
Speaker 1: and it turns out I love this movie. One of

47
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,359
Speaker 1: the most memorable bits of that movie is the whole

48
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: Winddix thing and then using it to fix everything. But

49
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 1: this movie actually started as a one woman stage play

50
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 1: before it became a movie. The original person who wrote

51
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 1: that play and performed in that play actually wrote the

52
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: screenplay and she took all of that from her own

53
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 1: Greek American family experiences and traditions. So I think this

54
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 1: is also a great example of of looking at Hollywood

55
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 1: and thinking, man, there aren't any movies that represent where

56
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:11,080
Speaker 1: I come from the traditions of my people. I don't

57
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 1: see myself represented in any of these stories. Instead of

58
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:16,320
Speaker 1: saying when are they going to make it? You know what,

59
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,679
Speaker 1: I'm just going to make it myself. And it ended

60
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:23,919
Speaker 1: up working despite Hollywood saying that they thought audiences would

61
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 1: have a hard time connecting with the movie centered around

62
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 1: a Greek family because they didn't think the idea was

63
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 1: universal enough. And the interesting thing about My Big Fat

64
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 1: Greek Wedding is, normally movies just care about that opening weekend.

65
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 1: If you see a movie out promoting right now, they

66
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 1: only care about that opening weekend numbers because that is

67
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 1: typically when you make the most amount of money. Normally

68
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 1: there is anywhere between a forty to sixty percent, sometimes

69
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 1: even up to seventy or eighty percent, depending on word

70
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 1: of mouth whether it is good or bad, but there

71
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,120
Speaker 1: is oftentimes a huge drop off from week one to

72
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 1: week two, So everybody focuses on that first week because

73
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 1: rarely do you end up making more money the second week,

74
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 1: even though we've seen some examples this year. But when

75
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 1: it came to My Big Fat Greek Wedding, this movie

76
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,359
Speaker 1: actually grew bigger every week instead of dropping off in

77
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 1: that opening week. It went on to spend months in theaters,

78
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,359
Speaker 1: becoming one of the biggest sleeper hits ever. And obviously,

79
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: like I mentioned earlier, the wind Deck fixes Everything ended

80
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,160
Speaker 1: up becoming that standalone joke that is one of the

81
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,239
Speaker 1: most quoted things of the two thousands. So it wasn't

82
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:39,160
Speaker 1: a movie that Hollywood believed in, but audiences believed in it,

83
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: They discovered it, and then refused to let it go.

84
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 1: They told people about it. So at number twelve is

85
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 1: My Big Fat Greek Wedding from two thousand and two,

86
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: and number eleven is Saw from two thousand and four

87
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 1: from director James One, who is now a huge director

88
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 1: when it comes to the horror genre. This movie had

89
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 1: a budget of one point two million dollars and went

90
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 1: on to make one hundred and four million dollars at

91
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 1: the box office. That's an eighty seven x return on

92
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:12,840
Speaker 1: this movie and now has spawned an entire franchise. This

93
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: was the first full feature film from director James Wand

94
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:20,279
Speaker 1: and the entire movie was shot in only eighteen days.

95
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 1: That iconic bathroom location is basically the centerpiece of this

96
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 1: entire movie, so primarily the entire story takes place right there.

97
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 1: And realizing I don't think this is a spoiler. At

98
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 1: this point, it's over twenty years old, which is weird

99
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,839
Speaker 1: because Saw still feels new to me. But to think

100
00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:39,279
Speaker 1: that he was there in the room the entire time,

101
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 1: I remember that moment being so mind blowing. I don't

102
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 1: think I saw this movie in theaters because I was

103
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: thirteen years old. It was rated R but still the

104
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,040
Speaker 1: first time I saw that and jig Saw gets up

105
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,160
Speaker 1: and then you learn his entire backstory. That is one

106
00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 1: of the most mind blowing moments of the two thousands.

107
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,359
Speaker 1: But that iconic bathroom. It works to tell the story.

108
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 1: But it was also strategic in a way. We don't

109
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 1: have a whole lot of money. We have one point

110
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 1: two million dollars to spend on this thing. How can

111
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 1: we make the most of one location? So again, it

112
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:14,840
Speaker 1: always comes down to creativity when it comes to small budget.

113
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 1: Same way growing up, we didn't have a whole lot,

114
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,840
Speaker 1: but we found ways to be creative to save money.

115
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: That is what you have to do. It is scrappy

116
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 1: filmmaking and I love it. I think it is very

117
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,039
Speaker 1: inspiring when you can work with very limited resources and

118
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 1: it all comes down to how you tell your story

119
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: and how you use what you do have, which I

120
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:39,040
Speaker 1: think something now that we are experiencing on the internet.

121
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 1: We have been experiencing this for a while now. Anybody

122
00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,359
Speaker 1: can create anything with your phone. If you want to

123
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 1: have a platform, it's as easy as getting out your

124
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 1: phone and going on TikTok. And I think even when

125
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 1: I was growing up trying to get started in some

126
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 1: kind of content creation. In like the twenty tens late

127
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,160
Speaker 1: two thousands, you always felt like you needed to have

128
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 1: really fancy equipment and lighting and do all these things,

129
00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 1: and you thought, oh, man, I could never do that

130
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,720
Speaker 1: because I don't have the money to create that. There

131
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 1: are no rules anymore. You could use your phone and

132
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 1: through your own direction and your own creativity, you can

133
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 1: make anything you want to make with just what is

134
00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 1: sitting in your pocket. So I think Saw is a

135
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: great example of that. Again, the horror genre is going

136
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 1: to really dominate this list just because it is a

137
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 1: genre that feeds off of creativity. You don't need to

138
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: have a whole lot of money to make a great,

139
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: powerful story when it comes to horror. So at number eleven,

140
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 1: I have saw from two thousand and four. At number

141
00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:45,679
Speaker 1: ten is Napoleon Dynamite. This movie only costs four hundred

142
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 1: thousand dollars to make six figures to make Napoleon Dynamite.

143
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: It went on to make forty six million dollars at

144
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,760
Speaker 1: the box office. That is a one hundred and fifteen

145
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 1: X return. Not only was it highly success fool, but

146
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,679
Speaker 1: the movie was filmed mostly in Preston, Idaho. It also

147
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 1: doesn't really say when it takes place. It feels very

148
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: old and almost seventies or eighties, but then also feels

149
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: modernate times. That is why I feel that Napoleon Dynamite

150
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 1: is kind of a timeless movie. John Heater, who plays

151
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: Napoleon Dynamite, was only paid around one thousand dollars for

152
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:23,800
Speaker 1: the movie, and then it went on to be a

153
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: huge hit. It sparked his career. He went on to

154
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 1: do Purty Wohlla in Hollywood, and I still see him

155
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 1: now out talking about Napoleon Dynamite. My favorite story is

156
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 1: how whenever he filmed the dance scene, he made everybody

157
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 1: else leave the set. Only the essential crew could stick around.

158
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,960
Speaker 1: So if you're operating a camera or you had to

159
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 1: be there for the actual production of the scene, you

160
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 1: could stay, but everybody else had to go. And he

161
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 1: didn't have that dance fully figure it out. They just

162
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 1: knew that he had a little bit of dance experience

163
00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,880
Speaker 1: and this was going to be a very pivotal moment

164
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 1: of the movie, so he kind of freesed the whole thing.

165
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:04,720
Speaker 1: So to this day he says, I really don't know

166
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,120
Speaker 1: the dance I couldn't do the dance for you. I

167
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 1: knew the elements I wanted to fit into the dance,

168
00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:13,320
Speaker 1: but they just needed something funny. So he's like, Okay,

169
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,280
Speaker 1: I could do this at the school assembly, and that

170
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,400
Speaker 1: is what he did. He really only had a few

171
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 1: minutes to figure out the dance before the filming started.

172
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:25,199
Speaker 1: And I also think this movie had a big impact

173
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 1: on comedy even still to this day, if you have

174
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 1: that dead pan style of comedy that I feel a

175
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 1: lot of shows after this and movies too ripped off

176
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: Napoleon Dynamite. Anytime I watch something awkward, I can probably

177
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 1: pinpoint it back to something from Napoleon Dynamite. And this

178
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 1: was another movie that the studio Fox Searchlight in this case,

179
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 1: didn't know how audiences were going to react. And I'm

180
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: pretty sure I saw this opening weekend. I know I

181
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 1: saw it in theaters, but I remember there just kind

182
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 1: of being a buzz around it. Maybe I saw a

183
00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,040
Speaker 1: trailer or a clip on MTV and thought, Oh, I

184
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: want to go see that movie in theaters. My brother

185
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 1: and I went to go see it. I think if

186
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 1: I dug through all the things I still have at

187
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 1: my parents' house, I could find my original Napoleon Dynamite ticket,

188
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:14,880
Speaker 1: but it was through people like me and my brother

189
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 1: going to watch it and then word of mouth. This

190
00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:21,200
Speaker 1: movie just grew bigger and bigger and went on to

191
00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 1: be the monster hit that we know now and number

192
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:29,559
Speaker 1: ten is Napoleon Dynamite. At number nine from nineteen seventy six,

193
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 1: it is Rocky. The movie had a one point one

194
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 1: million dollar budget and went on to gross two hundred

195
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 1: and twenty five million dollars at the box office. That

196
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 1: is a return of two hundred x. Rocky is the

197
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 1: greatest underdog story of all time. And now they're coming

198
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,800
Speaker 1: out with I Play Rocky, which is a movie about

199
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 1: the making of Rocky. And it's crazy to see how

200
00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 1: those two stories parallel, because the story of Rocky is

201
00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 1: Sylvester Stallone wanted to break into Hollywood, but nobody was

202
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 1: going to hire the guy. So somebody told him, if

203
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 1: you want to be in a movie, write a script

204
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 1: and give yourself the best part, which I think is

205
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: the best advice to today. Even if you don't want to

206
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,720
Speaker 1: get into something creative, anything that you want to do

207
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,719
Speaker 1: in life, just do it yourself and give yourself the

208
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:21,040
Speaker 1: best part. Whether it is actually for a movie, whether

209
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 1: it's for a business, whatever you want to accomplish in life.

210
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:27,520
Speaker 1: Right now, the biggest thing is owning your own content,

211
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 1: owning your own brand, owning your own company. Take the

212
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 1: Rocky approach, write your own script in life, give yourself

213
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 1: the best part. That is the best advice I can

214
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 1: give you. But that is what Sylvester still owned did

215
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,680
Speaker 1: He in a matter of days, wrote the script to Rocky.

216
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 1: Got it in front of some executives who thought, this

217
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 1: is a great story, there's actually something here. You wrote

218
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 1: this entire thing by yourself. All right, we'll buy it

219
00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 1: from you and get somebody to play Rocky. And he's like, no,

220
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna play Rocky. I wanna play Rocky. That role

221
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,840
Speaker 1: was for me. And they're like, now they threw a

222
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,679
Speaker 1: bunch of money at him. Still wouldn't take it because

223
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: he knew this is something bigger than just one movie

224
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,679
Speaker 1: that I wrote. This could be my entire career. And

225
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,960
Speaker 1: boy was he right, because the movie went on to

226
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 1: spawn an entire franchise and spinoffs, has made over a

227
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 1: billion dollars as a franchise at the box office. And

228
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 1: it all goes back to that underdog story. No better

229
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:28,480
Speaker 1: example of betting on yourself, writing something in three and

230
00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 1: a half days and thinking this is going to be

231
00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 1: my ticket. That is a crazy thing to feel. It

232
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 1: is hard to turn down that amount of money and

233
00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,480
Speaker 1: the fact that it was made for right around a

234
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,119
Speaker 1: million dollars. Some movies today will spend a million dollars

235
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 1: just on visual effects, sometimes even for just one sequence.

236
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 1: This entire movie was made for that. At number nine,

237
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 1: I have Rocky from nineteen seventy six at number eight

238
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 1: in the most profitable movies of all time. Halloween from

239
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,560
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy eight, direct by John Carpenter, who is a

240
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 1: legendary horror director, had a budget of three hundred and

241
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 1: twenty five thousand dollars, went on to make seventy million

242
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,360
Speaker 1: dollars at the box office. That is a two hundred

243
00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:17,440
Speaker 1: and fifteen X return. This movie was originally called The

244
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 1: Babysitter Murders, which, man, I'm glad that this movie did

245
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 1: not end up being named that because if it would

246
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,720
Speaker 1: have been called The Babysitter Murders, I don't think it

247
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 1: would have been as successful. I think a huge reason

248
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,800
Speaker 1: that the Michael Meyers story connects so well is because

249
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 1: it's tied to Halloween, and anytime Halloween rolls around. Even

250
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 1: though it's not really a thing as much now to

251
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,200
Speaker 1: watch things on cable, you still want to go back

252
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 1: and watch these. It becomes tradition, just like we watched

253
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 1: Christmas movies around Christmas time. Once the leaves start to

254
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,400
Speaker 1: change and it's spooky season, I am for sure going

255
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:58,640
Speaker 1: to rewatch something in the Halloween franchise. So if it

256
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,440
Speaker 1: would have been The Babysitter Murder, it just would have

257
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: been another seventies movie, probably just a footnote in John

258
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,800
Speaker 1: Carpenter's career. This movie was so low budget that the

259
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:12,000
Speaker 1: mass they used for Michael Myers reportedly only cost a

260
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:15,600
Speaker 1: dollar and ninety eight cents. They went to the store

261
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,440
Speaker 1: they got a cheap Captain Kirk mask, which is William

262
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 1: Shatner from Star Trek, and they ended up modifying that mask.

263
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 1: You can kind of see it in some of the

264
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 1: scenes that are very up close and kind of on

265
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 1: the profile side of him. They took off like the sideburns,

266
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 1: They removed a lot of the features, painted the entire

267
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,920
Speaker 1: thing white, messed with the hair a little bit. Initially

268
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 1: they had some different types of masks. There was like

269
00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,160
Speaker 1: a clown mask at one point, which would have been awful.

270
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 1: All these small little details ended up making this movie iconic.

271
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,120
Speaker 1: And if one of these small details wouldn't have been

272
00:14:52,120 --> 00:14:54,240
Speaker 1: in place, I don't think the movie would have worked.

273
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:58,360
Speaker 1: Michael Myers was just referred to as the shape in

274
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 1: the credits, and there was actually an actor obviously wearing

275
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,840
Speaker 1: the mask and wearing the jumpsuit, but they wanted him

276
00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 1: to feel more evil than a real person. There was

277
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:12,440
Speaker 1: no Halloween, we wouldn't have Friday the thirteenth, scream a

278
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 1: Nightmare on Elm Street, and so forth. This is the

279
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 1: one that set the blueprint, so was made for very

280
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 1: little money, not only did well on its own, but

281
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 1: also sparked an entire genre of movie. And even though

282
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 1: it is seen as a scary slasher horror movie that

283
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,840
Speaker 1: is violent, a lot of the suspense in this movie

284
00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:36,640
Speaker 1: comes from what you don't see and the mystery and

285
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,600
Speaker 1: the tension that is created through that iconic music. Not

286
00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 1: only the main theme that we all know that, but

287
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,720
Speaker 1: my favorite part of the score is just when Michael

288
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 1: Myers is gating on somebody, which is always kind of

289
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 1: funny because he walks at the same pace the entire time,

290
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 1: and everybody else just kind of freaks out, and they're

291
00:15:56,840 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 1: fumbling around trying to get their bearings, and there's this

292
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 1: piano note that just plays that donn don un donn

293
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 1: as he's walking up, gaining on them, and then it

294
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 1: gets a little bit higher. It's like doneinging thing, doneing

295
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 1: thing thing. It's the tension they create with music, which

296
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 1: is what makes this movie even scarier. So at number eight,

297
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 1: I have Halloween from nineteen seventy eight next up on

298
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 1: my list at number seven, The Texas Trained Saw Massacre

299
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 1: from nineteen seventy four. The movie costs one hundred and

300
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 1: forty thousand dollars to make went on to earn thirty

301
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 1: one million dollars at the box office. That is a

302
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:43,200
Speaker 1: two hundred and twenty one x return on Texas string

303
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 1: Saw Massacre. The movie was partially inspired by the crimes

304
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 1: of serial killer Edgin, who was also an influence on

305
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 1: movies like Psycho and The Silence of the Lambs. And

306
00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 1: despite the title of it being the Texas Chainsaw Massacre,

307
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 1: there's not a whole lot of crazy gore in this

308
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:07,280
Speaker 1: first movie. They obviously get more gory later on, but

309
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,879
Speaker 1: a lot of the horror, again, much like in Halloween,

310
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 1: it comes from what you don't see, creating the atmosphere,

311
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 1: which the atmosphere and the Texas chainsaw massacre is really creepy.

312
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 1: After I saw this movie, obviously I grew up in Texas,

313
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 1: but it made me very weary of the back roads

314
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,879
Speaker 1: because you always kind of wonder after watching this when

315
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,080
Speaker 1: you're driving down the back roads in Texas or maybe

316
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,680
Speaker 1: another state you lived in the South, you always kind

317
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,320
Speaker 1: of wonder what those people are up to that live

318
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 1: out in the middle of nowhere. Sometimes I'll be driving

319
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,920
Speaker 1: out like by my parents' house, and there's a good

320
00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 1: stretch of miles where there's nothing but one house where

321
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 1: they're pretty far from a gas station or a grocery store,

322
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 1: and you think, man, what is going on in that house?

323
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 1: And then they have a shed out back, and you're like, oh, man,

324
00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 1: the things they could get away with. So watching this

325
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,199
Speaker 1: movie it made me a little bit more fearful to

326
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,919
Speaker 1: drive around Texas. And for sure I would never stop

327
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 1: pick up a hitchhiker or even stop and ask for

328
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 1: directions in a really small town. I'm just gonna keep

329
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:16,160
Speaker 1: on going. But this movie was actually shot in Texas,

330
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 1: which is not always the case. But the movie was

331
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 1: shot when it was one hundred degrees outside. So you

332
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 1: probably see some real frustration from some of the actors

333
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 1: because they said it was physically exhausting long production days,

334
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,399
Speaker 1: because a lot of making a movie is just sitting

335
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 1: around and waiting, and you're having to make this low

336
00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:38,280
Speaker 1: budget movie and sitting around and waiting in the hot

337
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 1: Texas heat. But it was shot on real locations, including

338
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:45,199
Speaker 1: an old farmhouse, and they did all that to save money.

339
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:49,320
Speaker 1: Leather Face, his mask was created to hide the emotions

340
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,720
Speaker 1: of the killer, kind of the same thing with Michael Myers,

341
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:57,439
Speaker 1: that you hide all the expressions from your villain's face. Therefore,

342
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:01,159
Speaker 1: if you just had this blank stare of nothingness, that

343
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 1: makes it creepier. They also positioned this movie as being

344
00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,359
Speaker 1: based on real events, which also scared me as a

345
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 1: kid because I thought this actually happened, and I thought, man,

346
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 1: I sure, hope I don't encounter a leather Face growing

347
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,399
Speaker 1: up in Texas. But it went on also to be

348
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 1: one of the most influential horror movies ever made at

349
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 1: number seven. The Texas Trainsaw Massacre, the Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

350
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,639
Speaker 3: After you stop screaming, you'll start talking about it.

351
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:36,440
Speaker 1: At number six. Mad Max from nineteen seventy nine, directed

352
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 1: by George Miller, had a budget of four hundred and

353
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:44,119
Speaker 1: fifty thousand, almost half a million dollars, went on to

354
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,639
Speaker 1: make one hundred million dollars at the box office. That

355
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 1: is a two hundred and twenty two x return on investment.

356
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:56,920
Speaker 1: This was Mel Gibson's first ever major role. It's really

357
00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,640
Speaker 1: got his career started back in the seventies. A lot

358
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 1: of the vvehicles and stunts were real because well, the

359
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:06,879
Speaker 1: filmmakers couldn't afford real special effects, So I think that

360
00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:09,359
Speaker 1: is why this movie probably still holds up a little

361
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,200
Speaker 1: bit to this day. Also, to save money, they actually

362
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:16,639
Speaker 1: use real motorcycle gang members as extras, because you think, man,

363
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,639
Speaker 1: we got to create this crazy environment with some really

364
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:24,679
Speaker 1: sketchy people, which I have to imagine probably created some

365
00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,880
Speaker 1: tension on set. Hopefully they did their research and didn't

366
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:31,800
Speaker 1: have rival gang members working on the same set, but

367
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 1: the stunts were reportedly so dangerous that some insurance companies

368
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,360
Speaker 1: refused to cover the production, which is a big thing

369
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 1: with any kind of movie that has a lot of stunts.

370
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 1: You have crazy insurance just in case something goes wrong,

371
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 1: and if you're working on a less than half a

372
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 1: million dollar budget, probably some things are going to go wrong.

373
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:54,359
Speaker 1: And at the time when this movie came out in

374
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 1: the seventies, it had the Guinness World Record of the

375
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:01,280
Speaker 1: most profitable movie ever made. The success of this movie

376
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:05,200
Speaker 1: went on to create even bigger movies like Mad Max

377
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:08,040
Speaker 1: Fury Road. Nearly forty years later, we also had to

378
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:13,240
Speaker 1: spin off with Anya Taylor Joy furiosa obviously highly influential

379
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,879
Speaker 1: on the post apocalyptic genre in movies. At number six

380
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 1: is Mad Max and number five is Knight of the

381
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:31,480
Speaker 1: Living Dead from nineteen sixty eight, directed by George a Romero,

382
00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 1: who is a huge zombie movie director, had a budget

383
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,719
Speaker 1: of about one hundred and fourteen thousand dollars, went on

384
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,399
Speaker 1: to make thirty million dollars at the box office. That

385
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:47,200
Speaker 1: is a two hundred and sixty x return on investment.

386
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,040
Speaker 1: The two things I know George A Romero four are

387
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,760
Speaker 1: Night of Living Dead all the zombie movies he made.

388
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,760
Speaker 1: But also he always wears like big thing glasses. He

389
00:21:56,000 --> 00:22:00,000
Speaker 1: essentially created the modern zombie movie because before this, zombie

390
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,320
Speaker 1: weren't really a thing like we know them so much

391
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,119
Speaker 1: now in pop culture with things like the Walking Dead everything,

392
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:07,800
Speaker 1: and you just know it's a zombie. But before this movie,

393
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 1: they were just these random supernatural creatures from folklore that

394
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:15,679
Speaker 1: weren't really established as a movie genre. But it was

395
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 1: George A. Romero who reinvented the zombie and turned them

396
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:22,960
Speaker 1: into flesh eating monsters, which is what we know now.

397
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,360
Speaker 1: Zombies eat brains and then they turn whoever they eat

398
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 1: into a zombie, therefore creating this whole Okay, now I'm

399
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 1: a zombie, and now the idea is spreading, and the

400
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 1: idea of a zombie has evolved throughout his movies, where

401
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,960
Speaker 1: they're often depicted as being slow creatures that are kind

402
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:44,120
Speaker 1: of dumb and just like brains brains, and then eventually

403
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 1: they get a little bit more intelligent. They start picking

404
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:50,240
Speaker 1: up on things. They're dead, well they're not really dead,

405
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,440
Speaker 1: they're undead, but then they kind of have some brain activity.

406
00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:55,919
Speaker 1: They get a little bit smarter when it comes to

407
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,760
Speaker 1: how to find humans and how not to fall into

408
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,639
Speaker 1: their traps. And then I really love it when the

409
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:05,159
Speaker 1: genre changed and the zombie started to get more regressive

410
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:10,320
Speaker 1: and faster, because there is nothing scarier than a fast zombie.

411
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:12,960
Speaker 1: But George a Romero made this movie with just a

412
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 1: bunch of his friends and some local actors in Pittsburgh.

413
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 1: The movie was initially filmed in black and white because

414
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 1: it is so much cheaper to do, and the opening

415
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:26,120
Speaker 1: scene with the cemetery was actually filmed in a real cemetery,

416
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,440
Speaker 1: which would he give me some feelings of like, oh, man,

417
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 1: should we be doing this? But it was one of

418
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 1: the first horror movies ever to feature a black lead character.

419
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 1: And then George a Romero ended up using horror as

420
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 1: so much more than just a scary zombie movie. He

421
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,440
Speaker 1: used it as a way to break down social issues

422
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:47,920
Speaker 1: through the power of a zombie movie. And actually, due

423
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:51,040
Speaker 1: to a copyright mistake on some of the early prints,

424
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:54,879
Speaker 1: the movie ended up becoming on accident public domain, and

425
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,200
Speaker 1: because of that, it became one of the most widely

426
00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:00,440
Speaker 1: distributed horror films in history. In the movie movie has

427
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,680
Speaker 1: influenced so many things like Walking Dead that I mentioned earlier,

428
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,560
Speaker 1: video games, things like Resident Evil and it all came

429
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:11,520
Speaker 1: from one hundred and fourteen thousand dollars budget, and number

430
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,960
Speaker 1: five is Night of the Living dead at number four

431
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,440
Speaker 1: from nineteen ninety nine, I have the blair Witch Project

432
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 1: had a budget of six hundred thousand dollars went on

433
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:25,920
Speaker 1: to make two hundred and forty eight million dollars even

434
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 1: though the initial shoot only cost sixty thousand dollars. And

435
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:34,240
Speaker 1: sometimes I like lose kind of a grasp of money

436
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 1: when I talk about movie budgets because I'm like, six

437
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 1: hundred thousand dollars that is nothing. But I couldn't even

438
00:24:39,119 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 1: get six thousand dollars together to film a movie, So

439
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,199
Speaker 1: this entire thing is kind of crazy. But that is

440
00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:47,520
Speaker 1: a four hundred and thirteen x return on investment. And

441
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 1: like I mentioned, they initially had a sixty thousand dollars

442
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 1: shoot and this was when they just gave all the

443
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:57,320
Speaker 1: actors in the movie handheld cameras and had them shoot things.

444
00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 1: So that's why it feels like found footage that cam

445
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 1: that is actually an authentic thing. This is an example

446
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,440
Speaker 1: of a movie that went viral back in the nineties

447
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 1: before going viral was an actual thing. And how they

448
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 1: did that is they presented this movie like it was real.

449
00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:17,679
Speaker 1: They created a website claiming that the story of the

450
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:21,440
Speaker 1: blair Witch was real. And that was something I felt

451
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:25,119
Speaker 1: going into watching this movie that I watched it probably

452
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:28,199
Speaker 1: more as if it were a documentary. So a lot

453
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:30,879
Speaker 1: of people who went to go see initially in theaters

454
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:35,160
Speaker 1: actually thought that those three actors in the movie disappeared.

455
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,359
Speaker 1: That's not what happened. The actors in the movie use

456
00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:40,639
Speaker 1: their real names to make it feel more authentic. They

457
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,439
Speaker 1: spent days alone in the forest while filming, so I

458
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,560
Speaker 1: have to imagine that is kind of terrifying in itself.

459
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:49,680
Speaker 1: And this was one of those movies that changed how

460
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,480
Speaker 1: studios marketed movies, not that they were the first to

461
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,919
Speaker 1: do it, because, like we mentioned earlier, Texas Chainsaw Massacre

462
00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:58,399
Speaker 1: also kind of presented that as a true story. But

463
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 1: I think when you can kind of blend the lines

464
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,119
Speaker 1: of what is real and what is fake, which is

465
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:06,200
Speaker 1: probably so much harder to do now with the Internet

466
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 1: and everybody being like we're getting scammed all the time

467
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 1: and being way more dial into when something is presented

468
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,520
Speaker 1: as real but it's actually fake. You probably couldn't get

469
00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 1: away with it as much today, But back in the

470
00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:22,160
Speaker 1: nineties you could do things like that. At number four,

471
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:24,720
Speaker 1: you have the Better Witch Project, one of the most

472
00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:28,719
Speaker 1: profitable movies of all time, and number three is one

473
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,640
Speaker 1: of the more modern entries on the list from twenty fifteen,

474
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:33,760
Speaker 1: which a lot of these have been in the seventies

475
00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 1: and eighties and nineties, but now in the twenty tens.

476
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,520
Speaker 1: You have The Gallows, which was made on a budget

477
00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:43,919
Speaker 1: of one hundred thousand dollars went on to make forty

478
00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,960
Speaker 1: three million dollars at the box office. That is a

479
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:51,560
Speaker 1: four hundred and thirty x return on investment. This is

480
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 1: a Blumhouse movie, which Blumhouse is the studio that I

481
00:26:55,720 --> 00:27:00,439
Speaker 1: highly credit with really seeing movies as an investment, and

482
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 1: it's kind of like playing the lottery because they know

483
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:08,440
Speaker 1: how profitable the horror genre is. So this studio historically

484
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:12,359
Speaker 1: it makes movies for smaller budgets. Their idea is, okay,

485
00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,960
Speaker 1: we spend a million dollars to make this movie. What

486
00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,960
Speaker 1: if it bombs. Okay, well, we only spend a million dollars.

487
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,840
Speaker 1: If we at least make two million dollars, we're making

488
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,320
Speaker 1: our money back. If we make three million dollars, all right,

489
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 1: we're profitable. Now. The return on investment is so good

490
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 1: that they take these risks time and time again. But

491
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:34,359
Speaker 1: that does mean that sometimes there are some really bad

492
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:37,480
Speaker 1: Blumhouse movies. It's not really a studio that I see

493
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:39,720
Speaker 1: the logo and think, ah, I'm gonna watch every Blumhouse

494
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:42,000
Speaker 1: movie very much. So they have to win me over

495
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:45,480
Speaker 1: with their casting and more than just the concept, because

496
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 1: sometimes they just fall flat, not like an A twenty four.

497
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,680
Speaker 1: I feel pretty good about going into any A twenty

498
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,640
Speaker 1: four movie and thinking, you know, I'm going to get

499
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:57,040
Speaker 1: a pretty good product here. But The Gallows started as

500
00:27:57,080 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 1: a short film before being expanded into a full feature,

501
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,040
Speaker 1: which in the horror genre that is kind of the

502
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,199
Speaker 1: road you go down a lot, especially now with the

503
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,280
Speaker 1: YouTube generation where you can put out a ten minute

504
00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:10,040
Speaker 1: short on YouTube, get a studio excited about it, and

505
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 1: then you make a full feature length movie. But this

506
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 1: movie was made with no major Hollywood backing. Before Blumhouse

507
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:20,800
Speaker 1: saw the potential here, they got on board, and what

508
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:24,639
Speaker 1: do they do. They heavily marketed this movie to teenagers

509
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:29,199
Speaker 1: through social media, and that works because you find that

510
00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:32,719
Speaker 1: found footage style movies just make the production cheaper and

511
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,960
Speaker 1: the formula works time and time again. But the entire

512
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:39,280
Speaker 1: movie is about a cursed high school play allowing filmmakers

513
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:42,440
Speaker 1: to use real locations because it's easy to find. You

514
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 1: don't have to go to some crazy location or different country.

515
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 1: It can just go to a school that you find

516
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 1: and you can film at. But the success of this

517
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 1: movie showed that people still like simple, self contained horror stories,

518
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:56,280
Speaker 1: which we are still seeing to this day, and we

519
00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 1: will see at number two because that number two is

520
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:03,280
Speaker 1: Obsession from twenty twenty six, directed by Curry Baker. It

521
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 1: cost seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars to make and

522
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 1: went on to earn over four hundred and thirty million

523
00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:14,880
Speaker 1: dollars at the box office. That is a five one

524
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 1: hundred and seventy X return. And we're not even talking

525
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,080
Speaker 1: about the year as a whole, even though now you

526
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:25,000
Speaker 1: can watch it for free on Peacock. But this became

527
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 1: and is now the best modern example of a small

528
00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 1: budget and big box office return. But not only that,

529
00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 1: this movie took over pop culture where even people who

530
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:41,480
Speaker 1: don't particularly like horror movies because it had so much

531
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 1: of a buzz and it felt like one of those

532
00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:47,200
Speaker 1: movies you need to see for yourself. That people who

533
00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 1: aren't even horror fans were checking out this movie and

534
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:52,320
Speaker 1: being like, ugh, not entirely for me, but I can

535
00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:55,240
Speaker 1: see why people enjoy this, and it's good. It is

536
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:58,440
Speaker 1: just not for me. But this followed the path of

537
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 1: all these other movies that came before, especially What is

538
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 1: going to Be at number one, which I think is

539
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:07,760
Speaker 1: the holy grail of small budget horror movie turned major

540
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:11,320
Speaker 1: success and full franchise. But even going back to the

541
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 1: Blade witche project, all these simple concepts that they look

542
00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:19,400
Speaker 1: easy to do on paper, so just do them, showing

543
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,840
Speaker 1: that if you could just have that connection with the audience,

544
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:26,600
Speaker 1: that is all you really need to create massive success.

545
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:29,200
Speaker 1: And if you can build that word of mouth, that

546
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:33,120
Speaker 1: is so much more value than running a TikTok campaign

547
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: then having all your actors go on all the talk

548
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:39,840
Speaker 1: shows and do the entire circuit. It all comes down

549
00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 1: to that word of mouth and creating something that people

550
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:45,000
Speaker 1: feel that they need to be a part of and

551
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 1: go see in theaters, otherwise they're going to be left

552
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 1: out of the conversation. So this seven hundred and fifty

553
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 1: thousand dollars movie has been annihilating things like Supergirl and

554
00:30:55,800 --> 00:31:00,000
Speaker 1: The Mandalorian and Grogu This year, Who's spent two hundred

555
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:04,320
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty million dollars on producing those movies.

556
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:09,400
Speaker 1: So this is really shaking up Hollywood right now, proving

557
00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,959
Speaker 1: that you don't need a huge budget to be successful

558
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 1: now and also showing that we crave original stories where

559
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:20,000
Speaker 1: we keep getting fed a lot of franchises, and I

560
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 1: know I'm a part of that. I love Disney, I

561
00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:25,560
Speaker 1: love Marvel, I love big franchises as much as anything else.

562
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 1: But I think people who maybe casually go to the movies,

563
00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 1: maybe just once a year, and then they just get

564
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:36,600
Speaker 1: fed remakes and reboots and sequels, and you just want

565
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:40,080
Speaker 1: something fresh, and studios just keep saying we need to

566
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 1: sell familiarity, we need to get people back into things

567
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 1: that they remember from their childhood. But Obsession has kind

568
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 1: of shattered all that, and I hope that the studios

569
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,480
Speaker 1: have a moment of realization right now, which I think

570
00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:56,760
Speaker 1: you're starting to see that we just crave original stories.

571
00:31:56,840 --> 00:32:00,560
Speaker 1: We don't need a big budget. We just want something good.

572
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 2: That's it.

573
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:05,240
Speaker 1: We just want something good. Obsession is a perfect example

574
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:08,240
Speaker 1: of that. So maybe that'll change and studios will stop

575
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:12,720
Speaker 1: overspending when audiences just really want strong ideas. We don't

576
00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:16,200
Speaker 1: need every a list Henter in a movie in order

577
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 1: to enjoy it, just give us something good. But at

578
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:23,800
Speaker 1: number two is Obsession from twenty twenty six, and finally

579
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:29,120
Speaker 1: at number one, the most profitable movie of all time

580
00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 1: is Paranormal Activity from two thousand and nine. The movie

581
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 1: was shot initially for fifteen thousand dollars and went on

582
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:44,960
Speaker 1: to make one hundred and ninety three million dollars at

583
00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 1: the box office, a nine hundred x return on investment.

584
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:54,400
Speaker 1: That is crazy. So it was initially shot at fifteen

585
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:58,160
Speaker 1: thousand dollars. They did have post production which brought the

586
00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:00,880
Speaker 1: budget to about two hundred and fifteen dollars, but that's

587
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:04,800
Speaker 1: still really good. But just looking at that initial fifteen

588
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:09,520
Speaker 1: thousand dollars to make the movie, and Paranormal Activity spawned

589
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:13,440
Speaker 1: the entire reemergence of this genre of found footage. They

590
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 1: weren't the first to do it, but I think in

591
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:19,400
Speaker 1: two thousand and nine they gave everybody the idea, this

592
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,320
Speaker 1: is what we need to do because it is very

593
00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 1: cheap to make. Obviously influenced by things like Better Witch Project,

594
00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 1: but it created such a great formula that maybe ran

595
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 1: its course later in the franchise. But I love paranormal

596
00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 1: activity the first movie, and I think it's because I'm

597
00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 1: just fascinated with haunted house movies and anything where you

598
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:46,320
Speaker 1: have a really strong, almost demonic or some paranormal force

599
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,400
Speaker 1: in a movie. That is probably the freakiest thing to me.

600
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 1: Maybe it's because I struggled a lot with sleep growing up.

601
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:56,320
Speaker 1: I suffered from sleep paralysis. That's something like this happening

602
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:58,240
Speaker 1: to me just freaks me out. It is probably the

603
00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 1: most terrifying because it feels like it could actually happen.

604
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,400
Speaker 1: I don't think Freddy Krueger is going to come out

605
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:07,480
Speaker 1: of my dreams. A doll probably isn't going to come

606
00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:10,359
Speaker 1: to life and chase me down the hallway. But I

607
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:15,080
Speaker 1: just feel like there's something sinister here that feels very real.

608
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:17,719
Speaker 1: The director had actually never made a film before, and

609
00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 1: the movie was shot almost entirely in his own house,

610
00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:25,399
Speaker 1: which I know later during the pandemic. That idea kind

611
00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:29,080
Speaker 1: of came back people filming movies over zoom, but a

612
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 1: crazy concept back in two thousand and nine that now

613
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:35,239
Speaker 1: doesn't feel so crazy anymore. And the entire concept was

614
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 1: built around one simple question, what if the scariest thing

615
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:42,920
Speaker 1: happened in your own bedroom, the place where you're supposed

616
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 1: to feel the most safe. You go to bed and

617
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 1: I you get all curled up, you play your sound machine.

618
00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:52,880
Speaker 1: That is your safe place. What if suddenly that safe

619
00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:56,280
Speaker 1: place wasn't a safe place anymore and you were terrified

620
00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:58,520
Speaker 1: to go to sleep. For a period in my life,

621
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,400
Speaker 1: I was terrified to go to sleep when I was

622
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,680
Speaker 1: suffering from sleep paralysis, where I just fell at night

623
00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:06,319
Speaker 1: like I was awake, I wasn't dreaming. I just felt

624
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:10,200
Speaker 1: like there was this heavy presence on my chest and

625
00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:13,440
Speaker 1: I just couldn't move. One time, I remember the worst

626
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,400
Speaker 1: it got where I would kind of feel it like

627
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,400
Speaker 1: coming in waves, where it felt like there was something

628
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:21,680
Speaker 1: pushing the covers down on me, and I would push

629
00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:23,239
Speaker 1: the covers off of me to kind of get it off,

630
00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:25,799
Speaker 1: and I'm like, that's not happening. That doesn't feel real,

631
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:29,120
Speaker 1: And then they would come back even harder, and I'm like,

632
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 1: oh no, this is not just in my head. I

633
00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 1: actually feel this. But the one time it was so

634
00:35:34,400 --> 00:35:36,879
Speaker 1: bad that that was happening, that this force just kind

635
00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 1: of came down and I couldn't move my body. And

636
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,920
Speaker 1: I remember at the time I was sleeping on the

637
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:46,400
Speaker 1: floor on a mattress, and I felt this entire pressure.

638
00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:48,239
Speaker 1: I live with my body and I lived with my

639
00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 1: brother at the time, and I remember I could see

640
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:54,399
Speaker 1: him in the other room and I tried to turn

641
00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:57,680
Speaker 1: my body. I couldn't. I could only turn my head

642
00:35:57,719 --> 00:35:59,480
Speaker 1: a little bit, and I remember turning it to the

643
00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,880
Speaker 1: left and trying to scream for help. And I was like,

644
00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:07,200
Speaker 1: and I try to say help me, and nothing came

645
00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:09,239
Speaker 1: out of my mouth. And there were other times where

646
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:12,439
Speaker 1: I heard things like somebody yell hey in my ear

647
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:16,120
Speaker 1: like that freaked me out. And this was after I

648
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,799
Speaker 1: saw Paranormal Activity. So then my mind started to going like,

649
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 1: oh no, this house is definitely haunted. My safe place

650
00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:26,160
Speaker 1: is no longer a safe place. But this movie is creepy.

651
00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:28,919
Speaker 1: Some of the prequels aren't as great where they try

652
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:32,440
Speaker 1: to explain the lore of where this all comes from. Yeah,

653
00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:34,319
Speaker 1: that's a little bit too much for me. I just say,

654
00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:37,719
Speaker 1: go back to basics to Paranormal Activity one, which is

655
00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:41,680
Speaker 1: the most profitable movie ever made. That is the list.

656
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:45,000
Speaker 1: I'll come back and give my spoiler free review of

657
00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:54,320
Speaker 1: The Invite. Let's get into it now. A spoiler free

658
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:57,919
Speaker 1: movie review of the Invite, directed by Olivia Wilde, who

659
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 1: I enjoy as a director movies like BookSmart. Don't Worry Darling.

660
00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:05,080
Speaker 1: I think she is a director that I take note

661
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:07,839
Speaker 1: of every single movie that she puts out, and this one.

662
00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:11,200
Speaker 1: It's hard to say that it's our best movie because

663
00:37:11,200 --> 00:37:13,880
Speaker 1: I love BookSmart so much that one put her on

664
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 1: the map. But this is one of those movies that

665
00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,839
Speaker 1: if you love films that give you anxiety, which I do.

666
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,320
Speaker 1: I love going into a theater, sitting in my seat

667
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,799
Speaker 1: and feeling uncomfortable, some people don't like that. If you

668
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:27,879
Speaker 1: don't like that feeling, you will not have a good

669
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:31,320
Speaker 1: time watching The Invite because from the very opening scene

670
00:37:31,880 --> 00:37:34,920
Speaker 1: you have all this tension between Olivia Wilde and Seth Rogan.

671
00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:38,800
Speaker 1: They play a married couple living in a very, very

672
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:41,920
Speaker 1: fancy apartment, and you learn more about the origins of

673
00:37:41,920 --> 00:37:44,080
Speaker 1: that apartment and the way they bring out a lot

674
00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:47,520
Speaker 1: of this anxiety intention is through the score from the

675
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:51,000
Speaker 1: very opening scene, where you feel it immediately because Seth

676
00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:53,880
Speaker 1: Rogan and Olivia Wilde are going through a bit of

677
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:57,520
Speaker 1: a rough patch in their relationship. They are just constantly

678
00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,840
Speaker 1: arguing through the very beginning of this movie and you

679
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:05,000
Speaker 1: have this score that is almost this very fast paced

680
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:08,200
Speaker 1: jazz music that is at times a little bit too loud,

681
00:38:08,360 --> 00:38:10,839
Speaker 1: and it feels so chaotic in your brain where I

682
00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:14,520
Speaker 1: was sitting there in my seat feeling uncomfortable because they're

683
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:17,440
Speaker 1: yelling trying to speak over the music, and you think, man,

684
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:19,960
Speaker 1: why didn't they turn down that music in post production?

685
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:22,880
Speaker 1: But I think that was done by design because it's

686
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,040
Speaker 1: supposed to give you that emotion. It's supposed to make

687
00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:28,399
Speaker 1: you feel the chaoticness of this movie and of their

688
00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:33,240
Speaker 1: love story. Olivia Wilde wants to invite their neighbors for dinner,

689
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:37,120
Speaker 1: and their neighbors are Penelope Cruz and Ed Norton. Seth

690
00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:40,279
Speaker 1: Rogan doesn't want anything to do with it. He has

691
00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:43,480
Speaker 1: some health problems, he doesn't want to be around people.

692
00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:45,440
Speaker 1: But she insists on it because they just fixed up

693
00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:47,640
Speaker 1: the apartment and they have been kind of a nuisance

694
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,200
Speaker 1: to everybody in the building because it's been loud. So

695
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 1: they kind of want to apologize to their neighbors, have

696
00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,680
Speaker 1: them over for a nice meal so they can get

697
00:38:55,719 --> 00:38:58,600
Speaker 1: to talking and apologize for all that. But Seth Rogen

698
00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 1: is very Seth in this movie, and it depends on

699
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:06,120
Speaker 1: how you feel about him? And Seth Rogen basically playing

700
00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 1: the same character in every single movie, how do you

701
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:12,600
Speaker 1: feel about it? He is kind of typecast as the

702
00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:17,399
Speaker 1: easy going but also easily annoyed stoner with a very

703
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:21,200
Speaker 1: gruff voice. He's very opinionated. He always makes these backhanded

704
00:39:21,239 --> 00:39:24,240
Speaker 1: remarks that are his branded comedy, and I do believe

705
00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:27,120
Speaker 1: this is Seth Rogan at his best. But it is

706
00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:29,560
Speaker 1: so Seth Rogen that if you are kind of tired

707
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 1: of him kind of doing the same thing over and

708
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,400
Speaker 1: over again, you might not be a fan of his

709
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:37,080
Speaker 1: performance in this movie, although I do think it is

710
00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:39,880
Speaker 1: his most layered performance because even though he's doing the

711
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:43,080
Speaker 1: same thing that he's done recently in like the studio

712
00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:47,640
Speaker 1: where he smokes weed, he gets into arguments. He makes

713
00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 1: situations way more awkward and intense that they need to be.

714
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:56,120
Speaker 1: The story here fits it so well, and you start

715
00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 1: to feel for his character a little bit because he

716
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:01,600
Speaker 1: is a failed musician now working as a music teacher,

717
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:03,880
Speaker 1: and you can feel that he has a lot of

718
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:08,040
Speaker 1: this rage and emotions that he doesn't really know how

719
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,239
Speaker 1: to handle, and it all kind of comes out as

720
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,400
Speaker 1: aggression because he doesn't really like where he is in

721
00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:16,040
Speaker 1: his life, even the origins of the apartment, which you

722
00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:19,600
Speaker 1: learned later in the movie. He has all these feelings that, man,

723
00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:22,680
Speaker 1: I kind of failed, and now I'm kind of failing

724
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:25,960
Speaker 1: in my relationship, and I really just don't want to

725
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:29,320
Speaker 1: be around these two neighbors who I have had issues

726
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:33,200
Speaker 1: with here in the building. And Olivia Wilde is very

727
00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:36,480
Speaker 1: obsessed with this apartment. She spent a lot of money

728
00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:39,840
Speaker 1: on all of the furniture and the rugs and really

729
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:42,560
Speaker 1: just wants to show it off. But you learn from

730
00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:46,359
Speaker 1: the very opening scene that these two people have a

731
00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:50,160
Speaker 1: history together, they have a kid. They've been arguing for

732
00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:52,600
Speaker 1: so long, and is this night going to be the

733
00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:54,879
Speaker 1: night that breaks them or the knight that solves all

734
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:57,400
Speaker 1: their problems, or are they going to get this couple

735
00:40:57,440 --> 00:41:01,920
Speaker 1: over here have the worst night ever and explode everything.

736
00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:04,200
Speaker 1: And I know the trailer gave away a lot of

737
00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:07,239
Speaker 1: what the actual invite is to do, and I knew

738
00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:09,600
Speaker 1: it going into it. I don't want to spoil it

739
00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:12,239
Speaker 1: here in this review because maybe you miss that. I

740
00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:15,560
Speaker 1: know not everybody watches every single trailer to every single movie,

741
00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:17,480
Speaker 1: So I just want to set the stage of this

742
00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:20,040
Speaker 1: movie all leading up to win Penelope Cruise and Ed

743
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 1: Norton come over, because when they get there, they very

744
00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:27,840
Speaker 1: much enter that chaotic situation. But it's what happens next

745
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:31,040
Speaker 1: and the actual invite where this movie just makes a

746
00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:34,600
Speaker 1: complete one pint eighty and suddenly it feels so different

747
00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:37,680
Speaker 1: and it's gonna get an emotion out of you. And

748
00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:41,000
Speaker 1: once that happens, you cannot help but be enthralled in

749
00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:44,359
Speaker 1: the story. You see the characters completely change, You see

750
00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:47,480
Speaker 1: everything kind of go out the window, and there is

751
00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:50,279
Speaker 1: so much more on the line, and that is where

752
00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:53,760
Speaker 1: it truly becomes like a oh man, this movie really

753
00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,879
Speaker 1: went there. It's gonna get awkward, and I think that's

754
00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:59,200
Speaker 1: what I like about this story. If at any time

755
00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:02,000
Speaker 1: there is a bag of awkwardness, this movie is going

756
00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:04,800
Speaker 1: to open it up fully and get everything out of

757
00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:07,160
Speaker 1: there and present it to you as the audience. This

758
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:09,640
Speaker 1: is a remake of a Spanish film from twenty twenty

759
00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:12,680
Speaker 1: called The People Upstairs, And once you learn about these

760
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:15,320
Speaker 1: people upstairs, you're like, oh man, you will start to

761
00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:18,680
Speaker 1: question everybody you've ever lived around, Like, man, you never

762
00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:22,560
Speaker 1: know what goes on behind those closed doors. I think

763
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:25,120
Speaker 1: what I love the most about this movie is it

764
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:29,840
Speaker 1: made something very small feel very big because it takes

765
00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:33,200
Speaker 1: place primarily in one location. I am always fascinated with

766
00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:37,280
Speaker 1: a movie that has very limited sets and very limited

767
00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:41,640
Speaker 1: actors because it takes a lot of skill to make

768
00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:45,000
Speaker 1: that entertaining. You have four main characters here, you have

769
00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:48,319
Speaker 1: one location. They never really leave the apartment, but so

770
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:51,520
Speaker 1: much goes on that the movie goes by really quickly

771
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:54,319
Speaker 1: and you never feel like they cheaped out on any

772
00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:56,959
Speaker 1: aspect of this movie, even though it only costs twelve

773
00:42:57,040 --> 00:42:59,400
Speaker 1: million dollars. And by the end of this movie, I

774
00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:02,279
Speaker 1: just felt like I watch something very poetic. It made

775
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:05,600
Speaker 1: a really great statement on relationships, and I think for

776
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:08,080
Speaker 1: some people if you're going through something, it might be

777
00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:12,040
Speaker 1: a little bit triggering because these characters go through a lot.

778
00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:16,080
Speaker 1: They have basically a full out therapy session at one

779
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:19,840
Speaker 1: point in this movie. So if you're maybe not in

780
00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:22,680
Speaker 1: the best relationship right now, I don't know if this

781
00:43:22,880 --> 00:43:25,440
Speaker 1: is the movie to see, because I felt a lot

782
00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:28,360
Speaker 1: of people in the theater start to look inward on

783
00:43:28,400 --> 00:43:30,920
Speaker 1: themselves because at the beginning of the film, a lot

784
00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:34,439
Speaker 1: of people were laughing, having a good time. Because at

785
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:37,480
Speaker 1: the core of this story it is a comedy. There

786
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:40,239
Speaker 1: are comedic things that happen. I don't think it's one

787
00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:41,880
Speaker 1: you go into and think, oh, it's gonna be like

788
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:45,520
Speaker 1: Seth Rogan and knocked Up. But there are some funny

789
00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:48,600
Speaker 1: elements to it. But then it gets very serious at times,

790
00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:51,600
Speaker 1: it gets a little bit dark, and Seth Rogan is

791
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:54,560
Speaker 1: still there to kind of poke the jokes and bring

792
00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:56,719
Speaker 1: some life in some of these situations where it's like,

793
00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 1: oh man, this is getting a little bit more intense.

794
00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:01,600
Speaker 1: This is not exactly what I signed up for. But

795
00:44:02,719 --> 00:44:05,600
Speaker 1: the last in the theater got a little bit quieter

796
00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:07,440
Speaker 1: to the end. It was kind of like a roller

797
00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:09,480
Speaker 1: coaster where it was going up the whole time, we're

798
00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:12,120
Speaker 1: all laughing, we're having fun. You come down off that

799
00:44:12,239 --> 00:44:15,040
Speaker 1: first big drop, which in the case of this movie

800
00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:18,040
Speaker 1: is the reveal of what the invite is, and then

801
00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:20,120
Speaker 1: by the end of it, you're just kind of coasting

802
00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:25,440
Speaker 1: to the end. You've fully exerted yourself of all your emotions,

803
00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:28,120
Speaker 1: all your energy, and then at the very end you're

804
00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:30,799
Speaker 1: just kind of coasting there, waiting to get to the

805
00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:33,439
Speaker 1: end of the ride, and you've had a great time.

806
00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:36,480
Speaker 1: Your face is kind of tingling and then you suddenly

807
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:39,759
Speaker 1: have this realization that the ride is over. That is

808
00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:42,280
Speaker 1: how I felt at the end of this movie, watching

809
00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:46,080
Speaker 1: the relationship between Olivia Wilde and Seth Rogan, of going

810
00:44:46,120 --> 00:44:49,239
Speaker 1: through all these emotions with him and then ending in

811
00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:52,520
Speaker 1: a very beautiful place. I think this movie was just

812
00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:54,759
Speaker 1: so out of nowhere for me where I thought, Okay,

813
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:57,120
Speaker 1: it's another A twenty four movie. I have been a

814
00:44:57,160 --> 00:44:59,759
Speaker 1: fan of Olivia Wilde's work since BookSmart. I thought she

815
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:03,640
Speaker 1: ca came out really strong with that movie. Don't Worry Darling,

816
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:07,239
Speaker 1: with Florence Pugh and Harry Styles, was very ambitious, maybe

817
00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:11,160
Speaker 1: a little bit too ambitious. I still enjoyed that theater experience.

818
00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:14,600
Speaker 1: I do think it is a very polarizing movie. A

819
00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:16,840
Speaker 1: lot of people didn't understand or just flat out hated

820
00:45:16,840 --> 00:45:19,080
Speaker 1: that movie, but I still felt like it was a

821
00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:22,680
Speaker 1: very noteworthy film. But when it comes to the invite,

822
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:26,160
Speaker 1: it was the side of her I really didn't expect

823
00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:28,840
Speaker 1: because there aren't a lot of bells and whistles. It

824
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:32,680
Speaker 1: is just straight ahead acting, a great score, and just

825
00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:36,400
Speaker 1: a really solid story that'll make you look inward, especially

826
00:45:36,440 --> 00:45:38,960
Speaker 1: if you're going through something in your relationship right now.

827
00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:41,279
Speaker 1: So just a bit of a warning on that. But

828
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,759
Speaker 1: for the invite, I'll give it four out of five.

829
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:48,399
Speaker 1: I'll be careful with this rating system. Let's just say apartments.

830
00:45:49,920 --> 00:45:54,839
Speaker 2: It's gone to head down to movie Mike Traylor Park all.

831
00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:57,160
Speaker 1: Right, right, all right. At the time of recording this,

832
00:45:57,320 --> 00:46:00,640
Speaker 1: I have not seen the Avengers Doomsday trailer yet. Whenever

833
00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:02,719
Speaker 1: you are listening to this, it's probably been out for

834
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:05,759
Speaker 1: a week now. But I wanted to blind react to

835
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:08,840
Speaker 1: Avengers Doomsday coming out in theaters on December eighteenth, my

836
00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:12,000
Speaker 1: second most anticipated movie of the year, obviously being a

837
00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:15,359
Speaker 1: huge Marvel fan. With Spider Man coming out this week.

838
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:18,839
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, there's a lot to be excited about,

839
00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:21,440
Speaker 1: but there's also a lot to be worried about, and

840
00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:23,640
Speaker 1: I want to get into all that. But before we do,

841
00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:28,160
Speaker 1: I'm going to blind react to the Avengers Doomsday trailer.

842
00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,520
Speaker 1: Watching it now for the very first time. You'll hear

843
00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:34,480
Speaker 1: me react throughout it. But it is, let's see, two

844
00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:38,360
Speaker 1: minutes and twenty five seconds right now. It was posted

845
00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:41,200
Speaker 1: and it already has twenty four million views on day one,

846
00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:44,200
Speaker 1: not even a full eight hours at the time of

847
00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:47,239
Speaker 1: recording this, So all right, I'll hit play and then

848
00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:49,200
Speaker 1: we'll talk about it on the other side. So right

849
00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:57,480
Speaker 1: now here is the full Avengers doomsday trailer. Save your school.

850
00:46:57,520 --> 00:47:01,520
Speaker 4: All right, something's coming. Let's come in.

851
00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:06,920
Speaker 1: Dress your ex looking at you may not be able to.

852
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:11,400
Speaker 1: Oh that's dousday is done.

853
00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:15,960
Speaker 4: We should be faced with another thing about decision.

854
00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:18,719
Speaker 1: Oh it looks good.

855
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:29,239
Speaker 4: I've fought with many warriors in my time. You far

856
00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:33,719
Speaker 4: then all of us put together, and they.

857
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:38,440
Speaker 1: Died Anymour's back died face black panthers.

858
00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:45,200
Speaker 4: And threats. That's getting me far less than this one.

859
00:47:48,239 --> 00:47:51,680
Speaker 1: Oh, Cyclops, we go gambit.

860
00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:56,760
Speaker 3: Change Chi think that they sacrifice will be for nothing

861
00:47:58,040 --> 00:47:59,479
Speaker 3: if we do low eachilling together.

862
00:48:02,880 --> 00:48:04,719
Speaker 4: Put aside your petty schools.

863
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:07,879
Speaker 1: Steak looks good.

864
00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:15,360
Speaker 3: I presume nothing except this. If you return, who will return?

865
00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:24,800
Speaker 3: Has brothers and his sisters? Ah good, a lot of

866
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:35,080
Speaker 3: my words. We are going to need a miracle.

867
00:48:35,960 --> 00:48:42,400
Speaker 4: Mm hmm. Hey now that's not possible.

868
00:48:51,880 --> 00:49:07,360
Speaker 1: Oh oh okay, venders doomsday Infinity vision. Interesting. Decenumber eighteenth

869
00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:09,160
Speaker 1: is doomsday.

870
00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:10,279
Speaker 4: Okay.

871
00:49:10,360 --> 00:49:13,000
Speaker 1: I have a lot of feelings about this. Okay, First,

872
00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:15,279
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go back and listen to what we heard

873
00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:17,959
Speaker 1: at the beginning. Which I have to assume is Victor

874
00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:21,040
Speaker 1: von Doom. So this is Robert Downey Junior. It should be,

875
00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:26,040
Speaker 1: because the accent threw me off.

876
00:49:26,120 --> 00:49:30,520
Speaker 3: Let's hear, before this day is done, we should be

877
00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:33,120
Speaker 3: faced with an unting above decision.

878
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:36,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, because we see doctor Doom there, all right, that

879
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:41,759
Speaker 1: sounds interesting, our first real full look at Doom. Here

880
00:49:41,840 --> 00:49:44,800
Speaker 1: are my thoughts on this. It is very Thor heavy,

881
00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:46,680
Speaker 1: and that worries me a little bit. So let's get

882
00:49:46,680 --> 00:49:50,000
Speaker 1: into the negative first. I think just because we've already

883
00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:53,880
Speaker 1: seen this, we've seen Thor go up against Stanos and fail.

884
00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:57,399
Speaker 1: I don't know if Thor is the guy I want

885
00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:01,680
Speaker 1: to put taking down doctor dou but I have to

886
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:04,640
Speaker 1: imagine it has to be Thor because Chris Hemsworth is

887
00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:08,280
Speaker 1: that pillar, the one connecting us to all the original

888
00:50:09,120 --> 00:50:12,960
Speaker 1: Avengers movies. He is that guy. He is that prominent

889
00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:17,000
Speaker 1: of a character. Chris Hemsworth is that prominent of an actor.

890
00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:19,640
Speaker 1: You kind of have to put him there, But I

891
00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:22,520
Speaker 1: don't entirely love it. There are some really good shots

892
00:50:22,600 --> 00:50:26,080
Speaker 1: of him going up against Doom and basically letting out

893
00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:31,400
Speaker 1: all the thunder, and then Victor von Doom just stops

894
00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:34,200
Speaker 1: him not even with this full hand. It looks like

895
00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:39,279
Speaker 1: maybe two fingers. Then he stops Thor. So if Thor

896
00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:43,000
Speaker 1: couldn't take out Thanos, what makes you think that he

897
00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:46,320
Speaker 1: needs to be the dude to go up against Doom.

898
00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:49,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm looking at it right now, two fingers

899
00:50:49,160 --> 00:50:52,040
Speaker 1: and he's holding back Thor, who's giving him his awe.

900
00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:55,239
Speaker 1: So that shows you how powerful Doom is. I mean,

901
00:50:55,320 --> 00:51:00,480
Speaker 1: in the Secret Wars comic, Doom annihilates Thanos, a much

902
00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:04,520
Speaker 1: bigger threat than Thanos. I don't think Thor is the

903
00:51:04,600 --> 00:51:07,120
Speaker 1: guy to go up against him. But then at the

904
00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:11,000
Speaker 1: end of this trailer we see Captain America return. There

905
00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:14,520
Speaker 1: is Steve Rogers there with the long hair and the

906
00:51:14,680 --> 00:51:18,880
Speaker 1: beard and the bomber jacket, basically in all black, and

907
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:22,560
Speaker 1: he takes Thor's hammer again. He looks good, and we

908
00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:24,640
Speaker 1: have to rely on Captain America. He has to be

909
00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:29,440
Speaker 1: our savior. He is, I would say, our most powerful leader,

910
00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:32,560
Speaker 1: and he was supposed to be gone, but obviously he's

911
00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:35,160
Speaker 1: gonna come back, probably because of the money, which that

912
00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:38,520
Speaker 1: annoys me a little bit. But as a Marvel moves

913
00:51:38,560 --> 00:51:41,080
Speaker 1: into this new phase where they're kind of closing out

914
00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:45,640
Speaker 1: this chapter it's gonna get more into mutant heavy territory.

915
00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:49,320
Speaker 1: I feel like this really has to be Steve Rogers Goodbye.

916
00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:51,719
Speaker 1: It either has to be in Doomsday or it has

917
00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:54,880
Speaker 1: to be in Secret Wars. He can't go on past this,

918
00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:58,200
Speaker 1: Chris Evans just he has to go. I think that

919
00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:02,319
Speaker 1: character is gonna have less impact the more you keep

920
00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:05,600
Speaker 1: him around, but I understand why you need him and

921
00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:09,000
Speaker 1: why his character is necessary in this trailer and in

922
00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:14,000
Speaker 1: this movie. The things that really excite me about this is.

923
00:52:14,040 --> 00:52:14,680
Speaker 4: The X Man.

924
00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:16,800
Speaker 1: I think I'm going to be the most excited to

925
00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:19,719
Speaker 1: see all those characters come to life. We see more

926
00:52:19,840 --> 00:52:22,680
Speaker 1: of Cyclops in this which you heard me earlier. That

927
00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:25,919
Speaker 1: makes me want to freak out because I'm so into

928
00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:29,520
Speaker 1: X Men ninety seven right now, which the first season fantastic.

929
00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:33,719
Speaker 1: Season two is just as fantastic, and it fleshes out

930
00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:35,920
Speaker 1: the X Men in ways we've never had before in

931
00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:38,839
Speaker 1: film where the characters were changed a lot. I feel

932
00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:41,440
Speaker 1: like it didn't fit the aesthetic the correct way. X

933
00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:46,279
Speaker 1: Men ninety seven is the perfect representation of all individual

934
00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:50,000
Speaker 1: X Men, particularly with Cyclops. He shines so much more

935
00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:52,600
Speaker 1: because you truly see how great of a leader he

936
00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:55,600
Speaker 1: is and how powerful he is, and that is what

937
00:52:55,719 --> 00:52:58,000
Speaker 1: I want out of this movie, and we get that here.

938
00:52:58,520 --> 00:53:01,319
Speaker 1: Obviously with the first look back when it was first

939
00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:04,600
Speaker 1: announced that James Marsen was returning, we saw that optic

940
00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:07,120
Speaker 1: blast from Cyclops, but you see it way more here

941
00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:10,000
Speaker 1: in this trailer, and that is exciting. Even though I've

942
00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,200
Speaker 1: already thought that is gonna be the best scene in

943
00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:14,200
Speaker 1: the movie, and now I see it here in the trailer,

944
00:53:14,280 --> 00:53:18,040
Speaker 1: I still feel like when that happens in theaters, I'm

945
00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:20,560
Speaker 1: gonna lose my mind. Because in this trailer you see

946
00:53:20,640 --> 00:53:24,640
Speaker 1: him walking out in the comic book accurate suit, highly

947
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:28,640
Speaker 1: influenced by the nineties look of Cyclops, and it looks fantastic.

948
00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:31,360
Speaker 1: The fact that James Marsden played him back in the

949
00:53:31,640 --> 00:53:35,120
Speaker 1: early two thousands in those first movies and now is

950
00:53:35,239 --> 00:53:38,520
Speaker 1: back feels so right. My second favorite thing is Gambit

951
00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:42,560
Speaker 1: Fighting Shang Chi, which I maybe a month or so

952
00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:45,799
Speaker 1: agosted rewatching shang Chi. I think it came on maybe

953
00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:49,080
Speaker 1: we're on vacation on cable or I just started watching

954
00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:52,320
Speaker 1: it on the plane or something. But that's movie was

955
00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:54,719
Speaker 1: so good, and we have been waiting for Shang Chi too,

956
00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:58,320
Speaker 1: for so long to see him return in this and

957
00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:02,719
Speaker 1: go up against Gambit, which was probably the best part

958
00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:05,640
Speaker 1: of Deadpoll and Wolverine as far as cameos that I

959
00:54:05,719 --> 00:54:08,560
Speaker 1: wanted to see go further because Channing Tatum has been

960
00:54:08,640 --> 00:54:12,120
Speaker 1: wanting to play Gambit his entire life, and I love

961
00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:14,920
Speaker 1: his take on the character. I know he's a bigger,

962
00:54:15,000 --> 00:54:17,800
Speaker 1: bulkier dude, but I rather have somebody who is so

963
00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:22,400
Speaker 1: passionate about Gambit playing Gambit than somebody that looks just

964
00:54:22,520 --> 00:54:24,960
Speaker 1: more like him. I love his take on the character

965
00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:28,240
Speaker 1: with the accent, and seeing him here in the suit

966
00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:31,560
Speaker 1: with the powers, I think looks fantastic. And then, oddly

967
00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:33,880
Speaker 1: what's the least exciting to me is seeing all the

968
00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:37,879
Speaker 1: teams come together. You see the Fantastic Four enter the room,

969
00:54:38,200 --> 00:54:41,520
Speaker 1: you see the Thunderbolts there, which is basically the new Avengers.

970
00:54:41,680 --> 00:54:44,640
Speaker 1: Ant Man is back, we have Anthony Mackie in here.

971
00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:47,160
Speaker 1: That's a crazy room. Though, when you see all those

972
00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:51,520
Speaker 1: teams together, the Thunderbolts, Fantastic Four and then Thor just

973
00:54:51,800 --> 00:54:55,440
Speaker 1: staring them down, I don't think one character in that

974
00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:58,160
Speaker 1: room that I'm looking at right now, at about the

975
00:54:58,280 --> 00:55:01,360
Speaker 1: thirty nine second mark, I would really be interested in

976
00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:03,880
Speaker 1: seeing a solo movie, which is something that is so

977
00:55:04,160 --> 00:55:06,560
Speaker 1: different from the early Avengers movies where it was all

978
00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:10,040
Speaker 1: about those individual movies and them coming together as a team.

979
00:55:10,520 --> 00:55:13,480
Speaker 1: It almost takes this entire room to even give me

980
00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:16,200
Speaker 1: a little bit of excitement. So I think that is

981
00:55:16,400 --> 00:55:19,440
Speaker 1: indicative of what is going to come from all these

982
00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:23,440
Speaker 1: Avengers movies. I am still excited about it. I'm curious

983
00:55:23,480 --> 00:55:26,600
Speaker 1: to see how Loki fits in there. Like I mentioned earlier,

984
00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:29,480
Speaker 1: what I'm most excited about is the X Men's storyline.

985
00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:32,680
Speaker 1: We see mystique in here. It looks like it's going

986
00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:36,720
Speaker 1: to be a darker Avengers movie. Just by the tone

987
00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:40,440
Speaker 1: the colors of this trailer, I feel like we're going

988
00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:43,040
Speaker 1: to lose some people. Somebody has to die by the

989
00:55:43,160 --> 00:55:45,440
Speaker 1: end of Doomsday. Is it going to be Captain America?

990
00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:47,839
Speaker 1: That would be my heavy favorite. I would put money

991
00:55:47,920 --> 00:55:52,640
Speaker 1: on DraftKings on Captain America not making it through this movie.

992
00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:56,120
Speaker 1: I also think looking at what is coming before it

993
00:55:56,239 --> 00:55:58,920
Speaker 1: and who is not going to be in Doomsday is

994
00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:01,799
Speaker 1: another big indicator. Because we have Spider Man coming out

995
00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:05,960
Speaker 1: this week, but he is not a part of Doomsday,

996
00:56:06,520 --> 00:56:10,240
Speaker 1: and Kevin Fagey did confirm that Brand New Day takes

997
00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:13,680
Speaker 1: place before Doomsday. Not necessarily it leads right into it

998
00:56:13,800 --> 00:56:17,680
Speaker 1: as far as the MCU timeline, but it is confirmed

999
00:56:17,880 --> 00:56:21,040
Speaker 1: that it is set before the events of Doomsday. So

1000
00:56:21,160 --> 00:56:23,560
Speaker 1: I have to imagine, obviously we're gonna get an end

1001
00:56:23,600 --> 00:56:28,160
Speaker 1: credit scene in Spider Man and overall where his character

1002
00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:31,040
Speaker 1: is going is going to lead into Doomsday, but he's

1003
00:56:31,080 --> 00:56:33,239
Speaker 1: not going to be a part of it. He has

1004
00:56:33,320 --> 00:56:35,040
Speaker 1: to be a part of Secret Wars, because that is

1005
00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:38,959
Speaker 1: my favorite moment of Secret Wars is when he gets

1006
00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:42,480
Speaker 1: the Symbiote suit and he turns into Black Suit Spider Man.

1007
00:56:42,560 --> 00:56:45,960
Speaker 1: That has to be in Secret Wars. They can't change

1008
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:50,560
Speaker 1: it that much. I think. I do like Robert Downey Jr.

1009
00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:53,279
Speaker 1: Is a villain. I am not as opposed to it

1010
00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:56,880
Speaker 1: as I initially was thinking. Man, it's gonna feel weird

1011
00:56:57,000 --> 00:57:00,440
Speaker 1: rooting against Iron Man, or it's gonna feel very odd

1012
00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:04,200
Speaker 1: seeing Robert Downey Junior back in the MCU after what

1013
00:57:04,320 --> 00:57:08,040
Speaker 1: happened to Iron Man. It felt cash grabby, It felt cheap.

1014
00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:11,400
Speaker 1: It felt like the MCU just saying we need Robert

1015
00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:13,840
Speaker 1: Downey Junior because he is our cash cow. He is

1016
00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:17,040
Speaker 1: who people pay money to go see. But after watching

1017
00:57:17,080 --> 00:57:20,400
Speaker 1: this trailer, it makes sense to me. It all looks

1018
00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:24,520
Speaker 1: like it's gonna work out. The only thing, again, that

1019
00:57:25,280 --> 00:57:27,360
Speaker 1: is a little bit worrisome is the fact that it

1020
00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:30,760
Speaker 1: kind of just feels like the remnants of Endgame. So

1021
00:57:30,960 --> 00:57:33,760
Speaker 1: I need this movie to feel like its own thing.

1022
00:57:34,440 --> 00:57:38,600
Speaker 1: I needed to have a lot on the line. That's

1023
00:57:38,640 --> 00:57:40,400
Speaker 1: why I say somebody has to die by the end

1024
00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:42,840
Speaker 1: of this movie. Otherwise it's gonna start feeling like they're

1025
00:57:42,920 --> 00:57:45,400
Speaker 1: just holding onto the glory days, which is how I'm

1026
00:57:45,440 --> 00:57:48,240
Speaker 1: starting to feel about Chris Hemsworth and Chris Heavens. It

1027
00:57:48,440 --> 00:57:51,080
Speaker 1: kind of feels like people. And again, I love these

1028
00:57:51,080 --> 00:57:53,160
Speaker 1: two characters, but I have to make a comparison here

1029
00:57:53,840 --> 00:57:56,840
Speaker 1: that peaked in high school and now still come around

1030
00:57:56,840 --> 00:58:00,800
Speaker 1: their high school like they crushed it on the football team,

1031
00:58:01,560 --> 00:58:04,920
Speaker 1: they were one game away from winning state, and now

1032
00:58:05,080 --> 00:58:07,480
Speaker 1: they're in college, but they still come around to their

1033
00:58:07,600 --> 00:58:10,240
Speaker 1: high school to relive their glory days and to hang

1034
00:58:10,320 --> 00:58:12,560
Speaker 1: out with the coaches and their teachers and be like,

1035
00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:14,400
Speaker 1: oh man, I'm so glad I'm out of this place.

1036
00:58:14,800 --> 00:58:16,480
Speaker 1: So glad you're out of this place. Why do you

1037
00:58:16,600 --> 00:58:19,120
Speaker 1: keep hanging around? That's kind of how I feel about it,

1038
00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:21,480
Speaker 1: and I don't want to feel that way because I'm

1039
00:58:21,560 --> 00:58:24,120
Speaker 1: gonna be a total fanboy about this movie. I'm just

1040
00:58:24,680 --> 00:58:28,040
Speaker 1: considering all the options of what we are going to

1041
00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:30,520
Speaker 1: get out of the MCU, which they are digging further

1042
00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:33,959
Speaker 1: into the well. They are working on a Nova movie,

1043
00:58:34,400 --> 00:58:37,120
Speaker 1: which is a lesser known Marvel character, but a fan

1044
00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:40,280
Speaker 1: favorite and one that people have been asking to have

1045
00:58:40,520 --> 00:58:43,680
Speaker 1: a Nova film for a long time. First appeared back

1046
00:58:43,720 --> 00:58:47,680
Speaker 1: in nineteen seventy six in an issue of Super Avengers.

1047
00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:53,120
Speaker 1: And this is the Marvel formula. They go back through

1048
00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:56,480
Speaker 1: the archive and find characters they have the movie rights too.

1049
00:58:57,600 --> 00:59:00,440
Speaker 1: That is how the Avengers were built, because initially Marvel

1050
00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:03,520
Speaker 1: went bankrupt, they started selling off all their characters. That

1051
00:59:03,640 --> 00:59:06,000
Speaker 1: is why to this day they don't have the rights

1052
00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:08,360
Speaker 1: to Spider Man. And that is how they built the

1053
00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:11,920
Speaker 1: Avengers movies. Is they used all the characters that they

1054
00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:14,800
Speaker 1: had the rights to to build that team, and they

1055
00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:17,920
Speaker 1: made it work, and they formed our love for these

1056
00:59:18,080 --> 00:59:20,680
Speaker 1: characters that not a lot of people were familiar with

1057
00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:24,560
Speaker 1: unless you were a comic book nerd. And now they're

1058
00:59:24,640 --> 00:59:26,960
Speaker 1: the ones that everybody roots for and does not want

1059
00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:29,160
Speaker 1: to let go, And that is what I worry about

1060
00:59:29,680 --> 00:59:33,040
Speaker 1: with Doomsday. Are we just not ready to let go

1061
00:59:33,440 --> 00:59:36,560
Speaker 1: of the glory days of Marvel so much so that

1062
00:59:36,600 --> 00:59:40,200
Speaker 1: we're bringing back the biggest actor to now play a villain.

1063
00:59:40,480 --> 00:59:43,720
Speaker 1: But I'm excited for it. The run time for this

1064
00:59:43,920 --> 00:59:47,760
Speaker 1: movie is two hours and forty five minutes. That is

1065
00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:52,040
Speaker 1: a beefy superhero movie, so there's gonna be a lot

1066
00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:55,560
Speaker 1: of characters, hopefully a lot of action. With the last

1067
00:59:55,640 --> 00:59:58,840
Speaker 1: couple of phases not working out so well as far

1068
00:59:58,920 --> 01:00:02,360
Speaker 1: as financially and being well received by the fan base,

1069
01:00:02,920 --> 01:00:05,440
Speaker 1: I think including the X Men is going to be

1070
01:00:05,560 --> 01:00:08,000
Speaker 1: the thing that feels like a breath of fresh air.

1071
01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:11,320
Speaker 1: Even though that in itself is kind of a reboot

1072
01:00:11,400 --> 01:00:14,560
Speaker 1: of what started Marvel in film back in the late

1073
01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:18,040
Speaker 1: nineties and early two thousands, I think that is now

1074
01:00:18,280 --> 01:00:21,120
Speaker 1: what the fans have an appetite for, and with the

1075
01:00:21,280 --> 01:00:26,160
Speaker 1: MCU focusing on mutant stories after these Avengers movies wrap up,

1076
01:00:26,440 --> 01:00:29,280
Speaker 1: I think that is what we're gonna get a lot of. Also,

1077
01:00:29,360 --> 01:00:31,960
Speaker 1: great to see all the Black Panther characters in there. Again,

1078
01:00:32,720 --> 01:00:35,400
Speaker 1: I am excited for it. On a scale of one

1079
01:00:35,520 --> 01:00:39,800
Speaker 1: to five of hype, I'm probably out of four right now,

1080
01:00:40,920 --> 01:00:44,479
Speaker 1: where I'm more excited for Spider Man. This doesn't feel

1081
01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:47,480
Speaker 1: like the event yet, because this kind of feels like

1082
01:00:47,560 --> 01:00:52,160
Speaker 1: setting the stage, reminding people of why we love these movies.

1083
01:00:52,320 --> 01:00:55,160
Speaker 1: I think the event is gonna be Avenger Secret Wars

1084
01:00:55,480 --> 01:00:59,000
Speaker 1: that doesn't come out until next year, December seventeenth, twenty

1085
01:00:59,160 --> 01:01:01,560
Speaker 1: twenty seven. And there you have it. That was my

1086
01:01:01,720 --> 01:01:05,240
Speaker 1: reaction to the Doomsday trailer. And that was this week's

1087
01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:09,720
Speaker 1: edition of Movie Mike Trailer Parks, and that is going

1088
01:01:09,800 --> 01:01:12,640
Speaker 1: to do it for another episode here of the podcast.

1089
01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:15,640
Speaker 1: But before I go, I gotta give my listeners shout

1090
01:01:15,680 --> 01:01:18,520
Speaker 1: out of the week, which usually comes to us from

1091
01:01:18,840 --> 01:01:22,360
Speaker 1: a DM a comment on TikTok or YouTube dot com

1092
01:01:22,560 --> 01:01:26,440
Speaker 1: slash Mike Distro. Sometimes I venture over at a Facebook.

1093
01:01:26,840 --> 01:01:30,400
Speaker 1: But this week we're going old school to the show email,

1094
01:01:30,520 --> 01:01:33,520
Speaker 1: which is Moviemike d at gmail dot com. And I

1095
01:01:33,600 --> 01:01:36,600
Speaker 1: am shouting out Amelia, who wrote me an email and said,

1096
01:01:36,640 --> 01:01:40,440
Speaker 1: Hey Mike. First, thank you for this amazing podcast. I'm

1097
01:01:40,520 --> 01:01:43,480
Speaker 1: thirty four and I have little kids, so listening to

1098
01:01:43,560 --> 01:01:45,600
Speaker 1: this podcast makes me feel like I get to go

1099
01:01:45,720 --> 01:01:49,120
Speaker 1: to the movies each week. Second, please give your wife

1100
01:01:49,160 --> 01:01:53,040
Speaker 1: an Award for her review of The Breadwinner Preach Girl.

1101
01:01:53,720 --> 01:01:57,560
Speaker 1: Thank you Amelia for that email. I love reading emails

1102
01:01:57,680 --> 01:02:01,640
Speaker 1: just because in a world where everything is so fast paced,

1103
01:02:01,720 --> 01:02:04,440
Speaker 1: I feel like an email you really take time to

1104
01:02:04,520 --> 01:02:06,960
Speaker 1: sit down and write it, like back in the day

1105
01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:09,240
Speaker 1: when they'd get a jar of ink and a quill

1106
01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:12,480
Speaker 1: pen and just sit there and be like today Captain's

1107
01:02:12,560 --> 01:02:16,280
Speaker 1: log I saw host in the city like something like that.

1108
01:02:17,400 --> 01:02:19,920
Speaker 1: That's the only thing we have now is email, Amelia.

1109
01:02:20,000 --> 01:02:23,280
Speaker 1: I appreciate that. First of all, I love that feedback

1110
01:02:23,360 --> 01:02:27,080
Speaker 1: because I kind of wonder sometimes the level of movie

1111
01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:29,440
Speaker 1: fan that all you guys are. Some people like me

1112
01:02:29,640 --> 01:02:31,640
Speaker 1: go to the movies every single week. I know because

1113
01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:34,680
Speaker 1: I get those dms on Friday night or Saturday, like, oh,

1114
01:02:34,960 --> 01:02:36,360
Speaker 1: I just went to go see this, can't wait to

1115
01:02:36,400 --> 01:02:39,080
Speaker 1: hear your review. I always have those people in mind,

1116
01:02:39,160 --> 01:02:41,720
Speaker 1: just because I feel like a lot of people are

1117
01:02:41,800 --> 01:02:45,400
Speaker 1: as passionate about this that you go see everything every

1118
01:02:45,440 --> 01:02:47,840
Speaker 1: week and then you want to hear about it on Monday.

1119
01:02:49,080 --> 01:02:51,720
Speaker 1: I like hearing about people who maybe don't even go

1120
01:02:51,920 --> 01:02:54,600
Speaker 1: to the movies at all, or you wait for it

1121
01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:59,200
Speaker 1: on streaming and my reviews to you, are you seeing

1122
01:02:59,280 --> 01:03:03,120
Speaker 1: that movie without seeing that movie, which sounds like your case, Amelia,

1123
01:03:03,200 --> 01:03:05,480
Speaker 1: where you got a busy life, you got some little ones.

1124
01:03:05,480 --> 01:03:07,440
Speaker 1: You don't have time to go to the movies all

1125
01:03:07,480 --> 01:03:09,880
Speaker 1: the time, but you stay in the know of what

1126
01:03:10,120 --> 01:03:12,520
Speaker 1: is good and what is bad, at least in my opinion,

1127
01:03:12,640 --> 01:03:15,640
Speaker 1: so hopefully someday you do end up watching these And

1128
01:03:15,720 --> 01:03:19,400
Speaker 1: then second what you said here, Yes, Kelsey was very

1129
01:03:19,480 --> 01:03:22,200
Speaker 1: blunt in her review of The Breadwinner, which we both

1130
01:03:22,280 --> 01:03:24,560
Speaker 1: thought that is in the running for the worst movie

1131
01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:26,720
Speaker 1: of the year. So that is every single month where

1132
01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:30,439
Speaker 1: we do our recap episode. So appreciate that note. Thank

1133
01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:33,880
Speaker 1: you for listening, Thank you for being subscribed and telling

1134
01:03:33,960 --> 01:03:37,560
Speaker 1: a friend taking in your movies with me. And until

1135
01:03:37,640 --> 01:03:40,360
Speaker 1: next time, go out and watch good movies and I

1136
01:03:40,480 --> 01:03:42,240
Speaker 1: will talk to you later
