Speaker 1: Weapons director Zach Kreiger, my favorite horror movie of the year.

4
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:12,360
Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever done as much research going

5
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 1: into an interview before. Before I even knew this was happening,

6
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 1: I almost maybe kind of manifested this a little bit.

7
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,400
Speaker 1: I started just doing research on this guy because I

8
00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:25,240
Speaker 1: am so fascinated on how he approaches film and now

9
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 1: joining the podcast today Zach Kreiger. In the movie review,

10
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:32,879

11
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:35,960
Speaker 1: by Jordan Peele, but it's only produced by Jordan Peele him.

12
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 1: It's a horror movie about football starring Marlon Wayans. And

13
00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 1: in the trailer park, we'll talk about why Sidney Sweeney

20
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 1: known as one of the founding members of this comedy

21
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 1: troupe called The Whitest Kids You Know. It was also

22
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 1: a TV show that was on the air from two

23
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 1: thousand and seven to twenty eleven. At that time, I

24
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 1: was in high school and everybody was quoting The Whitest

25
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,479
Speaker 1: Kids You Know sketches. He directed fifty three of those

26
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 1: fifty seven episodes during that period. He also starred in

28
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,080

Speaker 1: debut with the horror movie Barbarian in twenty twenty two.

30
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 1: This year, I put Zach Kreiger on my list of

31
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 1: directors that I'm gonna watch every single movie they put

32
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,320
Speaker 1: out because I was so moved by Weapons. It's about

33
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: seventeen kids who all wander outside their homes in the

34
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 1: middle of the night and no one knows where they went,

35
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 1: and no one knows why. Weapons is now available on

36
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: digital and it'll be on four K Ultra HD on

37
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 1: October fourteenth. And now let's talk to Zach Craiger. What

38
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 1: is it like when you wake up and realize you

39
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: have the number one movie in the country. What is

40
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:00,160
Speaker 1: that feeling like?

41
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 2: It is surreal. It doesn't.

42
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 3: It doesn't feel like I think maybe somebody might expect

43
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 3: it to feel, because it's you're still in your bed

44
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,400
Speaker 3: and your skin in your room, and it's you know,

45
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 3: there's no there's no news, pixie dust sprinkled in the air.

46
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 3: You know. It's you can look at your phone and

47
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 3: kind of reinforce that that's happening, and then you put

48
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 3: your phone in your pocket and you're still just in

49
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 3: your house. So it's it's a weird thing, you know.

50
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,079
Speaker 3: It's I'm happy. Don't get me wrong, I don't. I

51
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:33,119
Speaker 3: don't mean to be, you know, poo pooing anything, but uh,

52
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 3: you're still you, so.

53
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think I understand that because I in

54
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 1: my life, I've lost one hundred pounds and I was

55
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,519
Speaker 1: really proud of myself when I was really proud of

56
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:46,800
Speaker 1: myself when I did that, and I thought once I

57
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,519
Speaker 1: did all the work and lost the weight that I

58
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: would be suddenly happier. And then I woke up one

59
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 1: day and I realized I did it. I don't know

60
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 1: if I feel any happier. Is it kind of that

61
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,400
Speaker 1: same way where you're like, I thought this was going

62
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: to solve all my problems. This is what I wanted

63
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: to do a chie as a filmmaker, and now that

64
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: I have it, it's like, okay, cool, this is it.

65
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 3: Okay, Well I think there, I think maybe, But but

66
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 3: I think there's something deeper under the surface that that

67
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:09,239
Speaker 3: we have in common.

68
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:10,399
Speaker 2: Right now, you did.

69
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 3: Something really hard and and and you are reaping the

70
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,600
Speaker 3: benefits of that because you probably have more energy, and

71
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 3: you probably probably have some self esteem rise from that,

72
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 3: right And I think that So even though my moment

73
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,519
Speaker 3: to moment is largely similar than as it was before,

74
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 3: I do have like there is a sense of accomplishment

75
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 3: that I think kind of is an underlying vibe that

76
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 3: that I can I can recognize as being as being different.

77
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 2: Do you feel that. I know when I got sober, I.

78
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 3: Felt that way, you know, I felt like, oh, like

79
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 3: things still bother me, but like I have this like

80
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 3: cushion of self esteem that I've never had before, and

81
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:50,920
Speaker 3: I only got that after I got sober.

82
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 2: So maybe maybe we have that and yeah, here isn't it.

83
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, feeling the self esteem is a big part of it.

84
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: I guess I just thought that once I lost all

85
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: the way, that's only all my problems would fix and

86
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 1: I'd find a girlfriend and I'd be like, Okay, now

87
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 1: I get the job.

88
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 2: You would like come storming into your living room and

89
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 2: like somebody would just give you a raise exactly. Oh yeah,

90
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 2: the world doesn't work out.

91
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 1: And I think with you in the creative field, that

92
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: you're always kind of chasing that thing, and then sometimes

93
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 1: when you have you're like, oh man, was this really

94
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 1: what I wanted the whole time?

95
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:21,839
Speaker 3: Well, that I don't know, because I think I've wanted

96
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 3: to be a filmmaker since I was like six, and

97
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 3: so so I you know, there's always maybe a fear

98
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 3: that you're going to be like the dog that catches

99
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 3: the mail truck and like, you know, is it gonna

100
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 3: monkeys pop?

101
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 2: And by the way, maybe it will. I don't know it.

102
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 2: You know, this is all very new, so I could

103
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,080
Speaker 2: I could be singing a different song in two years.

104
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 3: But but right now, you know, I'm I'm in Prague

105
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 3: and I'm making a new movie, and you know, my

106
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,160
Speaker 3: wife and I are good, and I'm I'm I'm doing okay,

107
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 3: So I'm I'm all right.

108
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 1: So I'm a huge fan of post Malone. I had

109
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 1: the chance to meet him. I posted a picture of

110
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 1: him in my Instagram story, and later I saw that

111
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 1: he watched my Instagram story. I like, that's cool, post

112
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 1: Malone watch my Instagram So that was almost cool then

113
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 1: meeting them in some weird way because I don't know.

114
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: I think we're all just like fascinated with social media

115
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 1: and who watches our stuff?

116
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 2: For you?

117
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,039
Speaker 1: As a filmmaker, do you ever during the process of

118
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,279
Speaker 1: making a movie, think, man, I wonder who the most

119
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 1: famous person is going to be that has watched my movie?

120
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:17,919
Speaker 2: No, who would that be?

121
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,800
Speaker 1: For you? Though, Like, oh, man, I really wish they

122
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 1: would watch my movie. Like I've loved this person maybe

123
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 1: since I was a kid. I'm a huge fan of

124
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 1: them now, like if this person watches Zach Kraiger movie,

125
00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I.

126
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:31,599
Speaker 3: Don't know, Brad Pitt, I've always been a giant fan.

127
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:35,479
Speaker 3: Would that would be pretty cool? You know, there's so

128
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 3: many people you admire and I could give you a

129
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,840
Speaker 3: hundred names right now. That would blow my mind if

130
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 3: they saw the movie.

131
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 2: I don't know.

132
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 3: It's funny, like to the idea of being on set

133
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 3: and being like, all right, I'm sitting up a shot

134
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 3: and one.

135
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 2: Day person Barack Obama watch this.

136
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:53,719
Speaker 1: And I'm really good to impress him with this one.

137
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 2: I do not think that way for Barbarian.

138
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,279
Speaker 1: You said you learned to prep the shoot and shoot

139
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: the prep. What did you learn from Weapons?

140
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:06,719
Speaker 3: Great question. I think I learned to and I'm still

141
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 3: learning it. I learned I need to learn to just

142
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 3: like relax a little bit more. Everybody I'm surrounded by

143
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 3: is really good at what they do. The movie's not

144
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:18,719
Speaker 3: gonna collapse. You know, we're gonna get it. You know,

145
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,359
Speaker 3: here's what I learned. My cinematographer said during prep, you know,

146
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 3: we're not playing a win lose game here.

147
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 2: We only win. And I was like, are you allowed

148
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 2: to think that way? Do you think that way? Could

149
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 2: I think that way?

150
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 3: And like, yeah, that's the attitude, man, Like I don't

151
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 3: need to freak out that if I forget to say

152
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,479
Speaker 3: something in prep, suddenly everything's gonna burn to the ground

153
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,599
Speaker 3: and production and the movie will be broken. Like, no,

154
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 3: the movie's gonna win, you know, because it's a good

155
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 3: idea and I have talented people and it's gonna it's

156
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:50,600
Speaker 3: We're gonna get everything we need to get. And I

157
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 3: think when I was making Weapons, I had this fear

158
00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 3: that that wasn't true, but I think that is I'm

159
00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 3: allowed to like live in that mindset now.

160
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 1: I think one of the most surprising things that I

161
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:03,919
Speaker 1: wasn't expecting when watching the movie and even rewatching the

162
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 1: movie were the moments of comedy where it was kind

163
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 1: of unexpected. It was maybe Josh Brolin saying line like

164
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 1: what the hell? Like what theF for? What's going on here?

165
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 1: And there was just these moments I kind of popped

166
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 1: in the theater where I was like, Oh, if you

167
00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 1: cut this movie differently, do you think it could be

168
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 1: a comedy.

169
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 3: Oh, I wonder. I don't know, but I'd love to

170
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 3: see someone try.

171
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 1: Why is it that people who have maybe roots in

172
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 1: comedy like you kind of translate to horror so well,

173
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: like a Jordan Peele. I'd even put like a John

174
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 1: Krazinski in there, going from having this background in sketch

175
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 1: comedy where people know them for that and now suddenly

176
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: have such success in horror. Why do you think that is?

177
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 1: How do those two genres kind of have some similarities?

178
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 3: Because I think you have to have an ear for timing,

179
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 3: and I think you have to be good at surprise.

180
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 3: I think every joke is a surprise. Every single one,

181
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 3: every joke, everything you've ever laughed at, follows a recipe

182
00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 3: in a formula, like an algebraic formula. That formula is this,

183
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 3: an action with an expected outcome yields an unexpected outcome. Okay,

184
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 3: So it's basically just saying, you do this, you think

185
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 3: you're gonna get that, and you get a surprise. And

186
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 3: I promise you there's not one thing you've ever laughed

187
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 3: at in your life that doesn't sort of follow that.

188
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 3: And and and try me if you ever see me

189
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 3: on the street and you think you have one that

190
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 3: doesn't follow that for me, come up to me and

191
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 3: tell me, and I bet I can, I bet I

192
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 3: can beat you.

193
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:26,239
Speaker 2: Because it just does.

194
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 3: And and and so that someone who's kind of good

195
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 3: at that surprise, that like anti rhythm or that that

196
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 3: little like pop, is probably going to be good at

197
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,079
Speaker 3: scaring you, because scares are follow the same anatomy, you know,

198
00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:46,319
Speaker 3: where it's like you're subverting in expectation. And I'm not

199
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,320
Speaker 3: sure if it's the exact same, but it's very similar.

200
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 3: So it's the same muscle group, is what I'm trying

201
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,719
Speaker 3: to say. It's it's like a it's like you're good

202
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 3: at the same instrument. Maybe is the way I think

203
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,679
Speaker 3: about it. That was a really mouthful bullshit.

204
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 2: To describe it a simple question.

205
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 1: But yeah, one of my favorite things about you is

206
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:04,719
Speaker 1: that you were in a punk band back in the

207
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 1: day where you said you would just basically get on

208
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,880
Speaker 1: the floor and just scream until they totally had to stop.

209
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 1: But you grew up in the DC punk scene, which

210
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 1: I'm a huge fan of punk rock. If you had

211
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,920
Speaker 1: to create a Mount Rushmore of punk artists, who would

212
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 1: be on that Mount Rushmore? Your top four?

213
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:21,160
Speaker 2: Wow?

214
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:25,199
Speaker 3: Okay, I'd go Bad Brains first and foremost perfect for DC. Yeah,

215
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:29,439
Speaker 3: I would go Fugazi Probably, I would put you know.

216
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 2: What a great question, dude, I might have to say

217
00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 2: the Misfits.

218
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 1: Oh love it, huge Misfits, early.

219
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 2: Misfits when Danzig was in the band.

220
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,839
Speaker 1: I don't even consider them the Misfits After Danzig lev

221
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 1: It's like it's just dancing.

222
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and then like, I don't know, I mean,

223
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:49,439
Speaker 3: oh god, that's so hard.

224
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 2: That's such a hard one.

225
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 1: Fourth one and what do you got there?

226
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe Dead Kennedy's I don't know.

227
00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 1: I feel like that is a classic punk rock list.

228
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: Right there, that is to know.

229
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 2: But those are all like obvious. You know.

230
00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 3: I could get like really like narrow a niche and

231
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 3: say like born against and his zero is gone and

232
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 3: and like keep going down that path.

233
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 2: But I don't know.

234
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:09,959
Speaker 1: But melt rushmore is the people who are gonna be

235
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 1: remembered forever. You gotta have dantic space up there, right,

236
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:15,280
Speaker 1: The Crimson ghosts up there is that kind of I

237
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 1: would probably put. When I got into punk rock was

238
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:23,479
Speaker 1: late nineties, early two thousands, so I'd put Rancid, No Effects,

239
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: Blink one eighty two, and Green Day.

240
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 3: These are all pop punk bands, Dude, you don't consider

241
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 3: those punk bands too.

242
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 2: Green All every band you just named is like pop punk.

243
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,680
Speaker 1: Okay, so I'll go punk rock. Then I would go Ramones,

244
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,720
Speaker 1: Can I Can I take the Ramones? Yeah? Of course yeah,

245
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,800
Speaker 1: I'd go See then I do feel basic kind of

246
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:47,800
Speaker 1: like you did, because I'd go Ramones, Clash Misfits and

247
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 1: prop Rants. Would you consider rancid pop punk.

248
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,680
Speaker 2: Not as pop punk? Is like Blink one eighty two?

249
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:59,080
Speaker 1: Wow, you consider rancid pop punk that is not as

250
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 1: the other your commercial taste of music? Okay, that's probably

251
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 1: got black flag though.

252
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 2: That's cool.

253
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 3: I mean, Ivy was like that was like the band

254
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,679
Speaker 3: that was my gateway drug, you know, and that's basically

255
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 3: you know, that's rancid practically, so.

256
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:12,319
Speaker 2: So I get you.

257
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 3: I'm not, by the way, I'm not giving any shade

258
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 3: bands at all. I'm just saying like they were all

259
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 3: very similar. They're all kind of living in that same

260
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 3: kind of kind of like you know, time and space,

261
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,960
Speaker 3: you know, no effect screen day and you know so

262
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 3: that that dude, No, no, no problems here.

263
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:29,560
Speaker 2: But I'm just saying, like.

264
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:32,840
Speaker 1: You made me feel so basic, now, Zach, that's not

265
00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 1: what I meant with you.

266
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 2: I'm sorry.

267
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,480
Speaker 1: Well, I really appreciate it's been awesome to get to

268
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,439
Speaker 1: talk to you. You are one of my favorite directors,

269
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 1: so this is an honor.

270
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 2: Thanks Mike. It's really fun to talk to you too.

271
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 1: Dude.

272
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 2: Don't hold that against me that I asked you.

273
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 1: All right, Thanks man. All right, buddy, that was quite

274
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,559
Speaker 1: possibly one of the funniest interviews I've done on this podcast.

275
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 1: If you enjoyed that, I'm gonna post some clips over

276
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:56,440
Speaker 1: on socials on TikTok and Facebook and YouTube shorts and Instagram.

277
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,560
Speaker 1: And sometimes I feel like I don't know what to say.

278
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 1: When I see some of my favorite creator posting things,

279
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:02,560
Speaker 1: I'm like, that's a really cool clip. I want to

280
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 1: do more than just like it, but I don't know

281
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 1: what to comment. I'm gonna make it easy for you.

282
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:09,959
Speaker 1: Just drop some hot dog emojis into the comments. If

283
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 1: you've seen Weapons, you know what the hot dog is

284
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: referring to. If you don't, not really a spoiler. It's

285
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,080
Speaker 1: just a very small detail that Zach Kreiger worked in

286
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:21,560
Speaker 1: there as an homage to actually his friend that passed away,

287
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 1: one of the cast members from The Whitest Kids. You know,

288
00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 1: he died, I believe in twenty twenty one, and Weapons

289
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:30,440
Speaker 1: was a way of Zach coping with his grief. And

290
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 1: I rewatched Weapons before the interview, and I really started

291
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,840
Speaker 1: to see that in the movie. I saw not a

292
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 1: horror story of a bunch of people in a town

293
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,840
Speaker 1: trying to figure out what happened to these kids. I

294
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 1: saw somebody trying to deal with the fact that they

295
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 1: lost one of their best friends, and how that comes

296
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 1: out in every single character in Weapons and all the

297
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,680
Speaker 1: parts of Zach's story that suddenly this movie made so

298
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 1: much more sense to me, so drop a hot dog

299
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 1: emoji in the comments. If you've seen it, you know

300
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,640
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. If not, go watch Weapons. But

301
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 1: let's get into what I believe to be my top

302
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 1: five directors of the twenty twenties so far. I consider

303
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 1: the movies that are also not yet released yet, so

304
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:11,680
Speaker 1: it's the movies that have come out so far in

305
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 1: the twenty twenties. At number five, I have Selene's Song,

306
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,000
Speaker 1: who made her directorial debut with Past Lives in twenty

307
00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:21,440
Speaker 1: twenty three, easily one of the best directorial debuts of

308
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:25,720
Speaker 1: the decades so far, earneder an Oscar nomination. I think

309
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,680
Speaker 1: Past Lives should have won for Best Picture, but she

310
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:32,320
Speaker 1: followed it up this year with Materialists. In just two movies,

311
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 1: I feel like she has already established who she is

312
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 1: as a storyteller with movies rooted in emotion, where Past

313
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 1: Lives is so much more a type of movie that

314
00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 1: makes you want to cry, that just hits you in

315
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,680
Speaker 1: all these emotional pockets in your body, and as somebody

316
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:52,480
Speaker 1: who has a hard time accessing those, a Selene Song

317
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,840
Speaker 1: movie is going to get those emotions out of me.

318
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,240
Speaker 1: Past Lives in particular, and then this year with Materialists.

319
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 1: It was a little bit less emotional, well leaned in

320
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 1: more to the rom com so not really going to

321
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,679
Speaker 1: hit you in the fields like Past Lives did. But

322
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 1: I really love that Selene started to expand on her

323
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:12,320
Speaker 1: visual palette and Materialists, which really elevated and drew me

324
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 1: into that movie more so. I think Selene's song is

325
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,440
Speaker 1: a force to be reckoned with when it comes to romance,

326
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 1: whether they're dramas, whether their dramas, whether they have more

327
00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,840
Speaker 1: of the comedic elements. She is going to be a

328
00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 1: director to watch if you love that genre of movies.

329
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 1: At number four, our guest of the episode who worked

330
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 1: his way into my top five, and it would have

331
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 1: been even if he wasn't on the podcast today, because

332
00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 1: that's how much I loved Weapons. And I even admitted

333
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 1: to you guys that I wasn't the biggest fan of

334
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:43,359
Speaker 1: Barbarian when it came out, but I respected the integrity

335
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 1: of the movie and I respected the vision more so

336
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 1: than how entertaining I found it. It is still, I believe,

337
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 1: one of the most noteworthy horror movies of the decade,

338
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 1: and with Weapons he entered into that. Okay, this is

339
00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 1: somebody who knows what they are doing and have a

340
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 1: very unique way of capturing the attention of people. And then,

341
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 1: like you mentioned in the interview, he is also out

342
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 1: filming his movie right now. He's working on the new

343
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 1: reboot of Resident Evil, coming out in theaters next year

344
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:15,520
Speaker 1: on September eighteenth. So dude is so in demand right now.

345
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 1: Anything he touches people want to be a part of.

346
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 1: And that has to be such a special part of

347
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 1: a director's life when they are the hottest thing, when

348
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 1: everybody wants to work with him. And I love how

349
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 1: I was able to get out of him that he

350
00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 1: hopes that Brad Pitt has seen one of his movies.

351
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 1: And I'm pretty sure I saw Brad Pitt talking about

352
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 1: weapons with Josh Brolin, so I'm pretty sure Brad Pitt

353
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 1: has seen it. But not only that, I feel that

354
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:41,440
Speaker 1: Brad Pitt would want to work with Zach Creiger. Could

355
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,920
Speaker 1: you imagine a horror movie with Brad Pitt if that happens.

356
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 1: I'm going to credit this podcast because we put it

357
00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,080
Speaker 1: onto the universe. But because of that, Zach Kreiger has

358
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 1: cracked my top five of twenty twenties directors so far

359
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 1: at number three. I'm going with Your Ghost Lantimos. So

360
00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 1: far in twenty twenty, he has put out Poor Things,

361
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 1: Minds The Kindness and has Bougonia coming out in November.

362
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: His movies are really weird and not for everybody. It's

363
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 1: the type of movie that I grew up loving, but

364
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:15,160
Speaker 1: my parents would never in a million years let me watch,

365
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,200
Speaker 1: And even now as an adult, I think I'd rather

366
00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:20,960
Speaker 1: walk backwards through a cactus field naked than watching Yorrugo's

367
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 1: Lundmo's movie with my mom or my dad. Speaking of

368
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:27,200
Speaker 1: Naked is because it just has a lot of naked people,

369
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 1: and not even doing normal naked people things, just very

370
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 1: out of the box nudity that has you wondering what

371
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 1: exactly goes on in his mind. But I love a

372
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 1: director who is so weird and one that almost becomes

373
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,440
Speaker 1: a genre in themselves. I feel like he is that

374
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 1: for me now. Probably in the two thousands and twenty

375
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 1: tens it was Wes Anderson, who is an honorable mention

376
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,600
Speaker 1: on this list, but now I feel because of the actors,

377
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,320
Speaker 1: he goes back to his trademark people, his muses, his

378
00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:00,680
Speaker 1: Emma Stones. Before that it was Colin Farwell. He has

379
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 1: a tendency to get a fixation on an actor and

380
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,399
Speaker 1: do two to three movies with him before he moves on.

381
00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:08,800
Speaker 1: So I feel like he is the biggest nerd, and

382
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 1: as a big nerd, I can respect that, and I

383
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 1: can't wait for him to make more new, weird movies.

384
00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 1: That's why I'm so excited for Bagonia later this year.

385
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:20,120
Speaker 1: But at number three is the Greek filmmaker, your Gooslantimos.

386
00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:22,919
Speaker 1: At number two, I have Christopher Nolan. Now, he started

387
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 1: out the decade kind of on a downpoint because Tenant

388
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 1: was one of the most confusing movies I had ever seen.

389
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:32,920
Speaker 1: I remember when I watched Tenant again in twenty twenty

390
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,400
Speaker 1: we were still watching movies at home, which was cool

391
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 1: for a minute. I had to restart that movie so

392
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,640
Speaker 1: many times because I thought, what am I missing here,

393
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 1: And after watching it all the way through for the

394
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 1: first time, I was still confused. And I feel like

395
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,480
Speaker 1: that was such a big creative risk for him. I

396
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 1: don't think that movie is inherently bad. I just think

397
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,600
Speaker 1: we still don't get it yet five years after. And

398
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,680
Speaker 1: I felt the same way about his movie Interstellar, where

399
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:03,160
Speaker 1: everybody was raving about that movie. It was so highly praised.

400
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 1: It took years of me going back to that movie

401
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:09,639
Speaker 1: and rewatching it to fully understand what he accomplished there

402
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:11,800
Speaker 1: by creating one of the best sci fi movies of

403
00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: all time. So maybe in another ten years I'm gonna

404
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:18,360
Speaker 1: look back and watch ten and think, man, we totally

405
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,240
Speaker 1: got this movie wrong. But he also put out Oppenheimer

406
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three, which he won the Oscar for

407
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,640
Speaker 1: Best Director. He has The Odyssey coming out next year

408
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,160
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty six. It is the first movie ever

409
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:34,119
Speaker 1: filmed entirely on Imax. That's gonna be big, that's gonna

410
00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 1: be bold, that's gonna be beautiful. It has Matt Damon,

411
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 1: Tom Holland and Hathaway's Zenda. That is gonna be an event.

412
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 1: And he is also the only director I can imagine

413
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 1: to make The Odyssey an event, because if anybody else

414
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,919
Speaker 1: tackled that movie, or if anybody else tackled Oppenheimer, I

415
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,040
Speaker 1: don't think it would have the same impact because I

416
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,280
Speaker 1: think the source material on its own isn't that sexy.

417
00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 1: I wouldn't look at anybody else making an Odyssey movie

418
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 1: and think that is a mussy thing. That is a

419
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 1: movie that I'm gonna buy tickets a year out, which

420
00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:07,199
Speaker 1: some people did. Tickets went on sale this summer and

421
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,679
Speaker 1: they sold out. It's like maybe one screening, but that

422
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 1: creates a story that is something that only Christopher Nolan

423
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,200
Speaker 1: can do. So that is why I have Christopher Nolan

424
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 1: at number two. At number one, this was an easy

425
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 1: number one. It is James gunn So far in the

426
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:25,760
Speaker 1: twenty twenties, he has put out The Suicide Squad, which

427
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 1: is the quintessential DC anti hero movie. He made everything

428
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:34,119
Speaker 1: right that was wrong with the original Suicide Squad. I

429
00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 1: rewatched it recently whenever Kelsey and I went to New

430
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:40,160
Speaker 1: York for our vacation this summer. Oh, it's a great

431
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 1: hotel movie, and I was reminded of just how much

432
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:47,439
Speaker 1: I loved all the characters inside of The Suicide Squad.

433
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 1: They're still kind of back and forth on whether or

434
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:54,159
Speaker 1: not Margot Robbie is going to return as Harley Quinn,

435
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,479
Speaker 1: But after rewatching that movie, I'm like, how can you

436
00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:00,639
Speaker 1: not include her? With everything going on now with Superman,

437
00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:06,160
Speaker 1: where we're going with Supergirl, with Batman having his own elseworlds,

438
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:09,160
Speaker 1: with what Matt Reeves is doing, I just want all

439
00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,960
Speaker 1: of these things to intersect at one point. Could you

440
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,680
Speaker 1: imagine a movie now where you have Margot Robbie John

441
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:19,400
Speaker 1: Cena as Peacemaker, David Kornswitt as Superman, Robert Pattinson as

442
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: the Batman. He also put out Guardians of the Galaxy

443
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:25,359
Speaker 1: Volume three and twenty twenty three, closing out one of

444
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,879
Speaker 1: the best trilogies ever of all time in the MCU

445
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,119
Speaker 1: come On. But also this year he put out Superman,

446
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,879
Speaker 1: which is now available on HBO Max. I need to

447
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:38,679
Speaker 1: go watch that immediately because I really wanted to go

448
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:40,959
Speaker 1: see it for the second time in theaters, but it

449
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 1: was such a busy summer that I was not able

450
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 1: to go see anything for a second time except for

451
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 1: Leilo and Stitch. I had to see Lelo and Stitch

452
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 1: in theaters twice, which is also on Disney Plus now,

453
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: so I can go relive my summer watch Lelo and

454
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 1: Stitch on Disney and then go over to HBO Max

455
00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 1: and rewatch Superman, which he also why I included him

456
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 1: at number one is Man of Tomorrow. The follow up

457
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 1: to that movie is coming out on July ninth, twenty

458
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:10,480
Speaker 1: twenty seven. Only two years in between those two which

459
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:13,360
Speaker 1: I have to imagine it could shift a little bit,

460
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,760
Speaker 1: but I almost feel like Superman now belongs in July,

461
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 1: so hopefully that release date stays on track. My honorable

462
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,119
Speaker 1: mentions Wes Anderson, who this decade has put out The

463
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:28,359
Speaker 1: French Dispatch, Asteroid City, and the Phoenetian Scheme. I think

464
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 1: because of how little I enjoyed the French Dispatch kept

465
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 1: me from putting him in my top five. Also have

466
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:38,440
Speaker 1: Emerald Fendle, who put out Promising Young Woman in twenty twenty.

467
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:41,360
Speaker 1: That is quite possibly one of the top ten movies

468
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 1: of the decade that doesn't get talked about enough. I

469
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,440
Speaker 1: feel like anything that came out in twenty twenty kind

470
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 1: of goes under the radar because it was such a

471
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: weird time for movies. But she followed that up with

472
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 1: Saltburn in twenty twenty three. That was the movie that

473
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,920
Speaker 1: got everybody talking a couple of years ago. She has

474
00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,439
Speaker 1: such a bold and risky style that I love it.

475
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,840
Speaker 1: She also has a movie coming out year with Margot

476
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:04,240
Speaker 1: Robbie and Jacob Elordi called Wuthering Heights. It is based

477
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 1: on a classic novel. I saw the trailer for that,

478
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 1: and Boyd does it look steamy? You kidding me? Margot

479
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 1: Robbie and Jacob Elordi together. I also have directors who

480
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,159
Speaker 1: so far have only put out one movie in the

481
00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,480
Speaker 1: twenty twenties. Jordan Peel has only put out Nope in

482
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,880
Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. I also have the co directing team

483
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,879
Speaker 1: the Daniels, who basically broke the oscars with their movie

484
00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 1: Everything Everywhere, All at Once. I would say the most

485
00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:31,720
Speaker 1: innovative storytellers of the twenty twenties Greta Gerwig, but so

486
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,920
Speaker 1: far she's only put out Barbie, which was a massive movie.

487
00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 1: I just need some more to get her into the

488
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,560
Speaker 1: top five. Paul Thomas Anderson so far has only put

489
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,440
Speaker 1: out Licorice Pizza, but he does have one Battle after

490
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:44,639
Speaker 1: another coming out at the end of the month. James

491
00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,679
Speaker 1: Cameron has also put out Avatar two and has another

492
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:50,920
Speaker 1: one coming out later this year. Martin Scorsese has only

493
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:54,480
Speaker 1: done Killers of the Flower Moon. Quentin Tarantino has put

494
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 1: out zero movies in the twenty twenties, but quite possibly

495
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:00,119
Speaker 1: he's the only director I know that could make to

496
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,520
Speaker 1: list with just one movie. And finally, I have Matt Reeves,

497
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:05,879
Speaker 1: who I mentioned earlier who put out The Batman this

498
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 1: decade and should have The Batman coming out soon. Some

499
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 1: details did come out last week. Filming starts in April

500
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 1: twenty twenty six, which that sucks because this movie was

501
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:18,600
Speaker 1: supposed to come out this year in twenty twenty five,

502
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:22,480
Speaker 1: and they're not starting filming until next April. Other details

503
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 1: about the movie include Bruce Wayne is finding it very

504
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,600
Speaker 1: hard to be Batman, which I don't know if that's

505
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,560
Speaker 1: saying a whole lot. I imagine it's really hard for

506
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 1: anybody to be Batman, but apparently it takes Batman in

507
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,760
Speaker 1: a direction never done before. I pray to all that

508
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 1: is holy that it is not a musical do not

509
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,680
Speaker 1: go the Joker two route. But it's being described as

510
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:46,439
Speaker 1: another murder mystery, digging deeper into the corruption, which is

511
00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:49,960
Speaker 1: really what The Batman did so well. Penguin will appear

512
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 1: in five to six scenes. Sophia Falcone will not appear

513
00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:56,960
Speaker 1: in this movie, but Matt Reeves and Robert Pattinson said

514
00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,560
Speaker 1: that it will top the first film is saying a

515
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 1: lot because I loved the Penguin in the first one,

516
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:07,359
Speaker 1: as the Villain and the Riddler paired together was so good.

517
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:11,200
Speaker 1: I would love to see Matt Reeves interpretation of mister Freeze,

518
00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,280
Speaker 1: because the only version we have in the movies is

519
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:17,680
Speaker 1: the very comical Arnold Schwarzenegger version. But if you could

520
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 1: bring some realism to that character, I think that would

521
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,439
Speaker 1: be the perfect addition in this world. Because we have

522
00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,400
Speaker 1: enough jokers, even though they introduced them at the end

523
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 1: of The Batman. We've seen two Face, We've seen Baine.

524
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,440
Speaker 1: Give me a dark and gritty mister Freeze. All right,

525
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 1: I'll come back and I'll give my spoiler free review

526
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:42,159
Speaker 1: of him. Let's get into it now, a spoiler free

527
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,160
Speaker 1: movie review of him. This movie was not what I

528
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 1: was expecting. I think I had too high expectation going

529
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:52,080
Speaker 1: into it. The movie was really leaning into the fact

530
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: that it was produced by Jordan Peel, so much so

531
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,199
Speaker 1: that his name was bigger on the poster than the

532
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 1: actual director of the movie and tipping, so I think

533
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 1: they were trying to trick us a little bit. Why

534
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 1: were they trying to do that? Was it because they

535
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,359
Speaker 1: felt that the movie wasn't good enough to succeed on

536
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,920
Speaker 1: its own, that they had to use the Monkey Pop

537
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:14,399
Speaker 1: production's power of Jordan Peele to really sell this movie

538
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:17,040
Speaker 1: or were they trying to trick us? Because I think

539
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,159
Speaker 1: if you just saw the trailer, you saw the poster,

540
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 1: you saw the overall aesthetic of this movie going into it,

541
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 1: you would think, oh, this is just a new Jordan

542
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,639
Speaker 1: Peele movie, but he is only a producer. What this

543
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 1: movie is about. You have a kid named Cameron Kaid

544
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:30,400
Speaker 1: who is on his way to be the next Goat.

545
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:33,920
Speaker 1: Has wanted to be QB one since he was a kid.

546
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 1: His father just instilled it to him. Starts out really

547
00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 1: weird at the beginning of him watching his favorite player,

548
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:43,200
Speaker 1: Isaiah White played by Marlon Wayans, go through a traumatic

549
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:46,000
Speaker 1: injury early on in his career, but then go on

550
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 1: to win several rings, probably too many rings to be believable,

551
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,280
Speaker 1: but that's what he wants to do. He wants to

552
00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:55,600
Speaker 1: achieve that. And the entire message of this movie, the

553
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:59,199
Speaker 1: tagline is how much are you willing to sacrifice to

554
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 1: be the best? Your family, your friends, your girlfriend? What

555
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:05,480
Speaker 1: are you willing to put on the line. So, right

556
00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 1: before the combine gets hit by a fan big brain injury,

557
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 1: doesn't know if he's going to be able to perform

558
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:13,880
Speaker 1: or if any team is going to want him right then,

559
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 1: his hero Isaiah White calls him, tells him to come

560
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 1: out to his compound lives basically in the middle of

561
00:26:19,320 --> 00:26:22,080
Speaker 1: nowhere in the desert in New Mexico, to come train

562
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,439
Speaker 1: with him, and that's where things start to get weird.

563
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 1: The issue I had with him is it got too

564
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 1: weird too quickly. And there is this subgenre of movies

565
00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:34,359
Speaker 1: that has become really popular right now of people finding

566
00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,200
Speaker 1: themselves in situations that start to feel like a cult.

567
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 1: Not a new thing. It's been happening in movies and

568
00:26:39,800 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 1: TV shows for a while now, but I feel like

569
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,479
Speaker 1: a lot of things recently have really leaned into this

570
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 1: where you go to some big, fancy place, whether it's

571
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 1: a resort or somebody's house, and it starts out seemingly

572
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,879
Speaker 1: normal enough, and then all these weird, little cult like

573
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 1: things start happening and you start questioning the person who

574
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:58,919
Speaker 1: invited you there. They're very weird and secretive. I've just

575
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 1: seen this theme a lot recently, and maybe I'm just

576
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 1: getting a little bit tired of it. But the difference

577
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 1: with him is it went from zero to one hundred

578
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:12,200
Speaker 1: really quickly and didn't lean into the weirdness. Therefore, when

579
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,359
Speaker 1: it started getting weird. I didn't really know where this

580
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 1: movie take place. Is it reality, is it some weird

581
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:23,040
Speaker 1: distant side world where things don't really matter? It almost

582
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,639
Speaker 1: felt too fantasy like, And I know this movie is

583
00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:27,439
Speaker 1: trying to say a lot. There are a lot of

584
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:31,960
Speaker 1: overarching messages about young athletes getting thrown into the spotlight

585
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:35,399
Speaker 1: too quickly, having to sacrifice their bodies, us as fans

586
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:37,879
Speaker 1: being too critical of them. And then you have the

587
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 1: powers that be who really run the organization, who are

588
00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 1: putting these people into situations where they have to give

589
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:48,320
Speaker 1: up their entire life, give up their body, basically selling

590
00:27:48,359 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 1: it away for billions of dollars in fame in exchange

591
00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:53,200
Speaker 1: for that? Is it worth it? Are you still willing

592
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 1: to give up everything in your life to achieve that?

593
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:57,960
Speaker 1: And I think that is what him was trying to say,

594
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,960
Speaker 1: but it never really got there. It focused a lot

595
00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 1: on the bizarre training tactics, which Cameron never really understood

596
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,159
Speaker 1: why they were happening, and then never questioned it. And

597
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,680
Speaker 1: I think that really led to me not really understanding

598
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 1: who Cameron was as a character. You saw a little

599
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,240
Speaker 1: glimpse of him as a kid, but you never really

600
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,680
Speaker 1: understood what was driving him, and I think that is

601
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,359
Speaker 1: the problem I had. And then Marlon Wayans, who I

602
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 1: thought gave a pretty good performance, maybe a little bit

603
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 1: too over the top at times, but without that, there

604
00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 1: wouldn't have been much to lean into. Because him Julia Fox,

605
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,639
Speaker 1: I think were the best parts of this movie. I

606
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:35,960
Speaker 1: think overall the movie just felt a little bit too

607
00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 1: one dimensional, and it sacrificed style over substance. And I

608
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:43,040
Speaker 1: know not every movie has to have a plot to

609
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 1: be a good movie. I think sometimes as people who

610
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:49,920
Speaker 1: talk about movies and overanalyze movies, we get too fixated.

611
00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:52,280
Speaker 1: And all of this didn't go anywhere, and this didn't

612
00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:55,360
Speaker 1: lead to anything. Sometimes I think a movie doesn't have

613
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 1: to have a plot if it has a vibe. And Him,

614
00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,920
Speaker 1: for sure lead more into having a vibe, having an

615
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,840
Speaker 1: aesthetic more so than the plot, because really that was it.

616
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,160
Speaker 1: He went to go training with them, weird stuff happened,

617
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,400
Speaker 1: and then you find out whether or not he makes

618
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:12,200
Speaker 1: it into a fictionalized version of the NFL. While I

619
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 1: did find the movie entertaining for the most part, I

620
00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 1: think what really helped it also was the fact that

621
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,600
Speaker 1: it was only ninety minutes. I just think that all

622
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 1: the performances were a little bit too over the top,

623
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,400
Speaker 1: justin tipping never really just brought it all together and

624
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,280
Speaker 1: really brought it home. I think if it would have

625
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 1: had a stronger third act, this could have not only

626
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:32,840
Speaker 1: been a decent movie, but maybe even a good, maybe

627
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,800
Speaker 1: even a great movie. I think quite possibly for all

628
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 1: the people dragging this movie now, I think him could

629
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 1: just be a little bit too ahead of its time,

630
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:46,600
Speaker 1: because I did see Marlon Wayan's post on Instagram saying, hey,

631
00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:49,480
Speaker 1: I know we have to have critics. I respect you,

632
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,959
Speaker 1: but every single movie I've put out in my life

633
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:55,680
Speaker 1: has been drug through the mud, has been said that

634
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,560
Speaker 1: it's bad. A lot of his movies have really low

635
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:04,479
Speaker 1: critics scores and oftentimes pretty good audience scores. And Marlon

636
00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:07,000
Speaker 1: Wains has been a part of movies in his life

637
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 1: like White Chicks Don't Be a Menace, the Scary Movie

638
00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 1: Franchise that when those movies came out, every critic said

639
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 1: the same thing of how awful they were. But if

640
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 1: you look at some of those movies that he is in,

641
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 1: they are some of the pillars of the two thousands

642
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 1: that have a fan base but just don't have the

643
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:28,000
Speaker 1: critics on their side. I think that could be him.

644
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 1: I do think there is an audience for him. It's

645
00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:34,080
Speaker 1: probably younger, maybe teenagers who are in sports in high

646
00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:36,760
Speaker 1: school now could watch him and think, man, that is

647
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:39,280
Speaker 1: such an awesome movie, and in ten years when they

648
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 1: are doing a podcast like this, they're going to talk

649
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 1: about him. From twenty twenty five was one of the

650
00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:46,920
Speaker 1: best movies of the twenty twenties, so it could quite

651
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 1: possibly be ahead of the curve and go on to

652
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,120
Speaker 1: be a classic. But I think for me right now,

653
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 1: it over promised and underdelivered. It started to feel a

654
00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:58,320
Speaker 1: little bit like a bait and switch situation, like we

655
00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:01,200
Speaker 1: were supposed to get to Jordan Peele move and instead

656
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 1: we got some off bran cheerios. So overall, for him,

657
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:09,480
Speaker 1: I give it three out of five footballs.

658
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:14,640
Speaker 2: It's time to head down to movie. Mike Trey Lar Paul.

659
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 1: I love it when actors go all in. I told

660
00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:20,720
Speaker 1: you guys, whenever Emma Stone shaved her head for the

661
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,480
Speaker 1: new Yorgos Lantinos movie, I'm like, that is what I'm

662
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:27,760
Speaker 1: all about. Sidney Sweeney, she went all out to portray

663
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 1: Christy Martin in this upcoming movie called, well, Christy, She's

664
00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:37,120
Speaker 1: a boxing legend, intense prep, put her body through the wringer.

665
00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 1: She had a weight trainer, she had a boxing trainer.

666
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 1: Said she ate a lot of smuckers, a lot of

667
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:49,719
Speaker 1: BBAJ sandwiches, milkshakes and was consistently eating. But as consistently

668
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:51,960
Speaker 1: as she was eating, she was also burning it off

669
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,840
Speaker 1: at the exact same time. Christy is coming out in

670
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,240
Speaker 1: theaters on November seventh. Now, knowing all the things that

671
00:31:57,240 --> 00:32:00,000
Speaker 1: Sidney Sweeney went through to portray Christy in the most

672
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,600
Speaker 1: accurate way, I am surprised this movie doesn't look as

673
00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 1: good as I was expecting it too, And that's a

674
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,000
Speaker 1: bit of a letdown because I also like Ben Foster,

675
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 1: who plays her husband in this movie, which I think

676
00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 1: some people have a little bit of a problem with

677
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,280
Speaker 1: this style of acting that I want to get into.

678
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:17,320
Speaker 1: But that is what this movie is about. It is

679
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:20,880
Speaker 1: a biopic Sidney Sweeney as Christy Martin and Ben Foster

680
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 1: as her trainer slash manager. It follows her story as

681
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 1: she enters the world of boxing, driven by her grit

682
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:30,840
Speaker 1: and determination to succeed in the sport and overcome the

683
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 1: personal battle she faces outside the ring. As I read

684
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 1: that plot, as every boxing movie kind of reminds me

685
00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 1: of another boxing movie. I was excited for a couple

686
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:43,280
Speaker 1: of years ago Big George Foreman, and that felt like

687
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 1: a lifetime movie. But I think there could be some

688
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 1: good in here. I'm still holding out hope. Oh, but

689
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 1: there's also some red flags.

690
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:51,000
Speaker 2: In the trailer.

691
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 1: I'm still holding on to hope that in the end

692
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,920
Speaker 1: this will be at least a good movie. Maybe not

693
00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 1: a great movie like I was expecting, but it could

694
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 1: still be a good movie. Because sports drama, it's probably

695
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 1: gonna fall right in the middle. But before I get

696
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:07,600
Speaker 1: into more, here's just a little bit of the Christy trailer.

697
00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 1: There's no Christy Martin without me. I need help, Mama.

698
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 1: He's angry at me all the time. Oh, Christie deep

699
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:24,400
Speaker 1: sound crazy. At the beginning of the trailer, it looked

700
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:28,440
Speaker 1: very fluffy, which I wasn't expecting because from the photos

701
00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:32,480
Speaker 1: that Sidney Sweetey shared on her Instagram, from the said

702
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 1: and the poster, I thought this movie was gonna have

703
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:36,400
Speaker 1: a little bit more of a grit to it. I

704
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 1: almost thought it was maybe Sidney Sweety saying I'm gonna

705
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:42,320
Speaker 1: make a bid to win an Oscar, kind of like

706
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,240
Speaker 1: The Rock is having now with The Smashing Machine. Also

707
00:33:45,280 --> 00:33:48,480
Speaker 1: could be unfortunate timing with these movies coming out in

708
00:33:48,560 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 1: about a month from each other, kind of like two

709
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 1: twin films, both portraying real life people, one mma one

710
00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 1: in boxing. I don't want to take away from the

711
00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 1: fact that she has a great story. The actual person

712
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,440
Speaker 1: she is portraying, Christy went through a lot of things

713
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: outside of the boxing ring. Her trainer slash husband went

714
00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,319
Speaker 1: on to be abusive, she got out of that relationship.

715
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:12,920
Speaker 1: She was also openly gay and then married her former

716
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,880
Speaker 1: sparring partner Lisa. So I have no doubt that her

717
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:19,319
Speaker 1: story is one of resilience and courage and fighting to

718
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 1: reclaim her life. But just because someone has a powerful

719
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,040
Speaker 1: story that says to someone I need to make a

720
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:29,839
Speaker 1: movie about that person doesn't mean that it's easy as

721
00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 1: plugging and playing their story and putting somebody in front

722
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:36,320
Speaker 1: of the camera and having somebody direct that, having somebody

723
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:39,279
Speaker 1: write that, knowing what part of their story that you

724
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,799
Speaker 1: need to tell, because I think that is the most

725
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 1: important when it comes to a biopic. That is why

726
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,600
Speaker 1: I like biopicks that focus on a very specific part

727
00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,480
Speaker 1: of their life where there may be is the biggest change,

728
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 1: the most significant thing to history or culture of pop culture,

729
00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 1: whatever it is. Much like they did with a Complete

730
00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:59,799
Speaker 1: Unknown with Bob Dylan. While it was a little bit

731
00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:02,000
Speaker 1: of out how he got discovered, how he got his

732
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:05,319
Speaker 1: record deal, it was a lot of his change of

733
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 1: going from being a folk singer to being a rock

734
00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:10,560
Speaker 1: singer and using electric guitars and all the pushback he

735
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:13,280
Speaker 1: got there. That is what made that story more powerful.

736
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:14,920
Speaker 1: And then when you see some of these biopicks come

737
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,920
Speaker 1: out and they're trying to cram everything in from their

738
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:21,120
Speaker 1: early life and their childhood to their rise to the fall,

739
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 1: and it's just a little bit too much. So going

740
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:27,480
Speaker 1: back to Christie's story, you have to decide what story

741
00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:30,239
Speaker 1: do we want to tell here? And one of the

742
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:33,359
Speaker 1: things I noticed from watching this trailer is you have

743
00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:36,520
Speaker 1: all three acts that we're gonna get in the movie

744
00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:39,399
Speaker 1: inside of this trailer. You see the beginning. You see

745
00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:42,600
Speaker 1: the turmoil start to happen, You see the relationship with

746
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:46,800
Speaker 1: her husband start to go AWRYE. You see her already

747
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 1: in this trailer at her lowest points and give her

748
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:53,319
Speaker 1: take a few details. You kind of already know where

749
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,240
Speaker 1: this movie is going to end. And I always say,

750
00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,560
Speaker 1: if you see all three acts of a movie in

751
00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:02,520
Speaker 1: a trail, that is a red flag. That is a

752
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:04,960
Speaker 1: sign of a movie that is trying to load you

753
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 1: up with information to get you into that theater. But

754
00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:09,960
Speaker 1: I think that is a bad sign, and I've been

755
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:13,600
Speaker 1: burned there before. Another big cliche that they use in

756
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:17,520
Speaker 1: this trailer they always got to use the dramatic version

757
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:20,799
Speaker 1: of a pop song, have it slowed down sung a

758
00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:23,799
Speaker 1: different way, you strip out some of the instrumentation. I

759
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:27,040
Speaker 1: don't know why biopics do this all the time, And

760
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:29,319
Speaker 1: with all these things combined, I am just surprised to

761
00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:32,360
Speaker 1: me after watching this trailer that it feels a little

762
00:36:32,360 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 1: bit more like a cable movie, much like I felt

763
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:37,920
Speaker 1: when I went to go see Big George Foreman in theaters,

764
00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:41,840
Speaker 1: where the acting just wasn't there, even though his story

765
00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:45,160
Speaker 1: was interesting at times it was powerful. I just think

766
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,960
Speaker 1: the overall vision of that film, much like I'm feeling

767
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:51,400
Speaker 1: here just from the trailer, just doesn't quite seem there.

768
00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:54,960
Speaker 1: When you compare this trailer to that of The Smashing Machine,

769
00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:58,560
Speaker 1: you can tell completely that those directors had two entirely

770
00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:02,440
Speaker 1: different visions and one just feels a little bit more powerful. Now,

771
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:05,879
Speaker 1: there are some parallels in this trailer, being that both

772
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:10,320
Speaker 1: The Rock and Sydney Sweeney did go through some physical transformations.

773
00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:13,759
Speaker 1: The Rock had prosthetics in his face that make him

774
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:16,719
Speaker 1: look different. My theory on that for The Rock it's

775
00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:19,200
Speaker 1: not so much that they wanted him to look like

776
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,720
Speaker 1: the Fighter. He is portraying MMA fighter Mark Kerr, because

777
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,960
Speaker 1: I don't think people are as familiar with Mark Kurr's face,

778
00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 1: but I think the prosthetics are there one to show

779
00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:31,640
Speaker 1: people that The Rock is doing something different here. He's

780
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:34,160
Speaker 1: trying to get into the more dramatic lane. He is

781
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:37,840
Speaker 1: trying to be taken seriously, and by really committing himself

782
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:40,440
Speaker 1: to this character, it shows okay, he is going a

783
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:43,200
Speaker 1: step further and not just showing up on sit randomly

784
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,279
Speaker 1: late and peeing in the bottles. I think also for

785
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,359
Speaker 1: The Rock, it helps him get into feeling like he

786
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:52,239
Speaker 1: is portraying somebody else where. If you look at his

787
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 1: last five movies alone, he's kind of just being himself

788
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:57,920
Speaker 1: a lot. So in order to get himself out of

789
00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,520
Speaker 1: what he is used to, you put your and those

790
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:03,719
Speaker 1: prosthetics and suddenly you do feel like you become an

791
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:08,080
Speaker 1: entirely different person. Now with Christy, Sydney Sweeney went through

792
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:11,760
Speaker 1: the physical transformation of training and getting into the body

793
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,080
Speaker 1: of a fighter. But the thing kind of holding me

794
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:18,320
Speaker 1: back from fully buying into her as Christy is the wig.

795
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:22,040
Speaker 1: And I understand that is how Christy styled her hair,

796
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:25,240
Speaker 1: But this wig looks like it was bought at party city.

797
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:28,719
Speaker 1: It doesn't look like Hollywood movie level wig, and I

798
00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:31,680
Speaker 1: find it to be a little bit distracting. And it's

799
00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:35,440
Speaker 1: just the wardrobe department and air department overall. Because Ben Foster,

800
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,400
Speaker 1: I would say the same thing about him, where everybody

801
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:41,279
Speaker 1: looks like they are wearing a costume. And I know

802
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,840
Speaker 1: in movies you do wear costumes to portray other people.

803
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,920
Speaker 1: I'm just saying that in this case, it really stands

804
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:52,719
Speaker 1: out and it's really distracting. It doesn't feel authentic, and

805
00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:55,480
Speaker 1: that is the problem I'm finding here. I feel like

806
00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 1: this movie might be a little bit too over dramatic,

807
00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,400
Speaker 1: maybe taking itself a little bit too seriously at times.

808
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 1: And Ben Foster does get criticized for being that type

809
00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:08,839
Speaker 1: of actor who some say he overacts a little bit,

810
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:11,479
Speaker 1: And I like Ben Foster. I loved him in Alpha Dog,

811
00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:14,960
Speaker 1: probably my favorite movie of his, and I love that

812
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,760
Speaker 1: in the movie his character is so over the top

813
00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 1: and so intense, screaming at people on the phone or

814
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,359
Speaker 1: going over to people's houses and trying to fight them

815
00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:28,359
Speaker 1: and being right up there in their face. You can

816
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:31,040
Speaker 1: see the anger in his eyes. But to some of

817
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,160
Speaker 1: that style of acting is a little bit off putting,

818
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:35,600
Speaker 1: and you look at Ben Foster and think, man, you're

819
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,960
Speaker 1: going just a little bit too far. You're going to eleven.

820
00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,799
Speaker 1: You gotta scale it down just a little bit. So

821
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:45,399
Speaker 1: I wonder if the drama and emotion is gonna have

822
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 1: the right balance in Christy. But I want these roles

823
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:51,799
Speaker 1: to work for Sidney Sweeney because I believe her performance

824
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,080
Speaker 1: in Euphoria is really what put her on the map,

825
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 1: and she has bounced around to different genres. Did the

826
00:39:57,080 --> 00:40:00,680
Speaker 1: rom com thing with anyone, but you immaculate jumping into

827
00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:02,719
Speaker 1: the horror genre, which I think is one of her

828
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:06,520
Speaker 1: more underrated roles. She tried the superhero thing being in

829
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:09,799
Speaker 1: Madam Web, and out of all the movies she's done recently,

830
00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:13,879
Speaker 1: I think my best sample size of how she does

831
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:17,560
Speaker 1: with dramas was probably Echo Valley earlier this year, the

832
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:20,720
Speaker 1: movie on Apple TV Plus with her and Julianne Moore.

833
00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:23,799
Speaker 1: I didn't fully love Sydney's performance in that, but I

834
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:27,400
Speaker 1: also think her character was made to be really unlikable.

835
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:29,719
Speaker 1: I wasn't supposed to be rooting for her. I wasn't

836
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:34,040
Speaker 1: supposed to like her character. So I'm hoping Christy is

837
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:37,080
Speaker 1: my real indication of whether or not she can really

838
00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:39,879
Speaker 1: dive into the drama roles or if she just ends

839
00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:42,600
Speaker 1: up going and doing more Anyone but You movies, which

840
00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:45,279
Speaker 1: I would be perfectly fine with too. But I think

841
00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:47,920
Speaker 1: she is that level of star that I would like

842
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 1: her to be an actor who can do every single

843
00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:52,719
Speaker 1: genre well because she is going to be around for

844
00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:54,759
Speaker 1: a very long time and the roles are just gonna

845
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 1: keep coming. So I hope I can get every kind

846
00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:59,719
Speaker 1: of Sidney Sweety movie. But Christy is coming out in

847
00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:02,839
Speaker 1: THEE on November seventh, And that was.

848
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:06,320
Speaker 2: This week's edition of Movie Line Tramer Bar.

849
00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:08,759
Speaker 1: And that is gonna do it for another episode here

850
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:11,280
Speaker 1: of the podcast before I get into my listener shadout

851
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:13,920
Speaker 1: of the week, they did announce the new Super Mario

852
00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:16,960
Speaker 1: Brothers movie, which I think looks awesome. There's not a

853
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,480
Speaker 1: full trailer on it yet, because if there were, I

854
00:41:19,480 --> 00:41:21,759
Speaker 1: would have covered that in the trailer park. But it's

855
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 1: called Super Mario Galaxy. The teaser is basically just Mario

856
00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:28,600
Speaker 1: sleeping underneath the tree. I really thought that they were

857
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:32,640
Speaker 1: gonna do Super Mario World before they did Super Mario Galaxy,

858
00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:34,560
Speaker 1: because I thought that was just the thing they were

859
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:36,960
Speaker 1: queuing up. They tease Yoshi at the end of the

860
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:40,320
Speaker 1: first movie. But I am excited for Super Mario Galaxy,

861
00:41:40,719 --> 00:41:43,160
Speaker 1: a game that I played so much on the Wii.

862
00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:47,400
Speaker 1: Super Mario Galaxy reminds me of college and in my

863
00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:51,359
Speaker 1: first apartment. Ever, after moving from Maxinatchi to Austin, I

864
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:53,920
Speaker 1: lived in an apartment. The ac went out and it

865
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,799
Speaker 1: was so hot in this apartment that we got a

866
00:41:56,840 --> 00:41:59,400
Speaker 1: window unit put it in my room, and that night

867
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:02,680
Speaker 1: I would crank thing all the way down, fire up

868
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 1: the Wii, and just play Super Mario Galaxy in a

869
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:09,080
Speaker 1: completely dark room for hours. A great game one, I

870
00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:11,560
Speaker 1: feel doesn't get a whole lot of recognition of how

871
00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:14,200
Speaker 1: good that game is because everybody talks about the ogs

872
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:17,040
Speaker 1: or all the stuff now on Switch. But I am

873
00:42:17,080 --> 00:42:19,480
Speaker 1: excited for this just a little bit surprised that they

874
00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:23,160
Speaker 1: decided just to go with Galaxy over Super Mario World.

875
00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:26,040
Speaker 1: But I hope we get Yoshi. I would really love

876
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:28,120
Speaker 1: for us to get Warrio, but I think we're probably

877
00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:31,360
Speaker 1: still another movie away from that. But for my listener

878
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:33,360
Speaker 1: shout Out of the Week, I am going over to

879
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:36,919
Speaker 1: my Instagram checking my dms. And this week's listener shout

880
00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:39,640
Speaker 1: Out of the Week goes to JW, who said, in

881
00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:43,040
Speaker 1: reply to my review of The Long Walk, Dude, if

882
00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:45,759
Speaker 1: you've never read the book, I think it is worth it.

883
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:48,840
Speaker 1: It is fairly short and so dark, but good crazy,

884
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:52,160
Speaker 1: such a dark dystopian idea that came out decades before

885
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:55,560
Speaker 1: anything else like Hunger Games. Appreciate that, JW. I did

886
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 1: get a lot of messages saying you have to read

887
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:00,799
Speaker 1: the book. I hear you, guys, But if you listen

888
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:04,320
Speaker 1: to this podcast, you know I have trouble finishing books.

889
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:07,000
Speaker 1: I can start a book, but it is so hard

890
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:09,440
Speaker 1: for me to finish a book. And I'm here to

891
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:12,000
Speaker 1: give you an update the book I was supposed to

892
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:15,360
Speaker 1: read before the movie came out. I still haven't started

893
00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:19,120
Speaker 1: Project Hill Mary. I still have not brought myself to crack,

894
00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:22,360
Speaker 1: not one page, but I'm going to do it because

895
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:25,400
Speaker 1: it is so at this point, I need to read

896
00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:27,880
Speaker 1: a book before going to watch a movie, and that

897
00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:30,200
Speaker 1: is going to be the one. If I never finished

898
00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:32,000
Speaker 1: that book, I'm not going to see that movie. So

899
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,000
Speaker 1: thank you JW for reminding me that I need to

900
00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:38,359
Speaker 1: start that book. But I've already seen the movie. I

901
00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:40,560
Speaker 1: don't know that I would be motivated to go back

902
00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:43,120
Speaker 1: and read that book because I have so many things

903
00:43:43,160 --> 00:43:46,520
Speaker 1: to read that Just in the studio right now looking around,

904
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:49,640
Speaker 1: there are two books that I've started and not finished.

905
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:53,359
Speaker 1: So I appreciate the book recommendations. I'll pass them along

906
00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:55,359
Speaker 1: to Kelsey who can probably read those in one night.

907
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 1: So thank you JW. Thank you wherever you are listening
