Without any further ado, 14 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:40,599 Speaker 1: let's get started. In a world where everyone and their 15 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:45,239 Speaker 1: mother has a podcast, one man stands to infiltrate the 16 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 1: ears of listeners like never before in a movie podcast. 17 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:53,360 Speaker 1: A man with so much movie knowledge. He's basically like 18 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 1: a walking audimdvie with classes from the Nashville Podcast Network. 19 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,880 Speaker 1: So I wanted to take this episode and recognize some 20 00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:08,959 Speaker 1: movies from some A list actors that I think are underrated, 21 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 1: maybe because when they came out, they weren't as well received. 22 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 1: They were a bit of departure for some of these actors. 23 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: Sometimes they didn't just perform as expected as the box office, 24 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 1: and in other cases, I think there's some that over 25 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: time they've kind of lost their cultural impact and we 26 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 1: just kind of forgot about these Sometimes they just get 27 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 1: a little bit forgotten, and I feel like in the 28 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 1: grand scheme of things, they start to become underrated the 29 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 1: less and less people reference some of these movies. So 30 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: I want to start with the movie that inspired this 31 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 1: entire list that I finally got around to watching, and 32 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,400 Speaker 1: it was one that I just hadn't really heard much about, 33 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 1: and it's a movie called One Hour Photos starring Robin Williams. 34 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 1: Came out back in two thousand and two, and immediately 35 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 1: upon reading the synopsis in the overall plot for this movie, 36 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: I was completely hooking. It's about Robin Williams who plays 37 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 1: this really lonely technician guy who's working at kind of 38 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 1: a Walmart slash Walgreens photo development department. And he plays 39 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: this character named Si, who has worked at this photo 40 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 1: lab for years, and over the years of working there, 41 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: he's developed this kind of obsession with his family, whose 42 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 1: photos he's been working with for years now to the 43 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,680 Speaker 1: point to where he's followed their entire life through pictures 44 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,919 Speaker 1: when they had a kid. And the movie starts out 45 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: innocently enough, kind of focusing on this story, and I 46 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 1: kind of resonate a little bit of what it's like 47 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 1: to be a lonely guy and want to, you know, 48 00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 1: just be a part of someone else's life, of what 49 00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,360 Speaker 1: you think is the perfect life. And it kind of 50 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 1: turns into this psychological thriller, which I'm a big fan of, 51 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:41,919 Speaker 1: and I really love any movies that depict somebody's descent 52 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 1: into madness to when they start out as a regular 53 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 1: enough person, but through the torment in their life, through 54 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: the pain and suffering that they have, you know, whether 55 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 1: it's deep down internalized in them, it just starts to 56 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: spill out a little bit a little bit in this movie, 57 00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: and you see Robin Williams character just kind of all 58 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: out looks it. So he goes from just kind of 59 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: idolizing this family of what he would look like, you know, 60 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: painted into those photos, and over the years he has 61 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 1: been making duplicates for himself, which is really creepy in 62 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 1: keeping them, and the entire movie kind of turns once 63 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,680 Speaker 1: his boss realizes what he's been doing, and then his 64 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: entire world gets kind of shifted upside down. So why 65 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: I think this movie is underrated is because it is 66 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 1: something unlike anything I've ever seen from Robin Williams. And 67 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:30,920 Speaker 1: he was greatly known for his comedic roles, is more 68 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: dramatic roles, but this one is almost, I feel like, 69 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: one of his best performances I've ever seen. And it's 70 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: also just kind of sad knowing that there are people 71 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 1: like this, people going through similar things like this, and 72 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: you just want to be kind of recognized and something 73 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: that could start out so innocently enough of just feeling like, oh, 74 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: you're taking some pictures for your own personal enjoyment, which yes, 75 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: sounds very creepy looking back on this. While you're kind 76 00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: of disgusted by what he is doing and what he 77 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: kind of the level he takes it in this movie, 78 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: you also kind of feel bad for him, knowing that 79 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: he is suffering greatly. And the other thing I really 80 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 1: enjoyed about this movie, while I feel it's underrated, it 81 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: really kind of encapsulates that moment in time going from 82 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: the nineties to the two thousand's the whole idea of 83 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: kind of film being you know, taken out of the 84 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: equation of nobody really using disposable cameras and nobody really 85 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 1: using film anymore. It all goes to digital. It kind 86 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: of has a parallel in this movie of his life 87 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 1: of like, oh, what I once had is no longer there. 88 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: The times are moving. So it's a really kind of 89 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,480 Speaker 1: great transitional piece of going from nineties movies to two 90 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: thousands movies. And it felt like a very two thousands 91 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 1: movie when I watched it. And I think now, as 92 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: we are in the twenties, which is weird to say, 93 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: but I think we're seeing more and more in pop 94 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: culture of you know, references now and back to the 95 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: early two thousands of what that kind of time period 96 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 1: is now and what kind of represents that time. And 97 00:04:57,720 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: I think you see that a lot when you watch 98 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,679 Speaker 1: this movie, being that it came out in two thousand 99 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,600 Speaker 1: and two. So at the top of my list and 100 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: underrated movies from a list actors, I would go with 101 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 1: a one hour photo starring Robin Williams, and you can 102 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: watch that as of now on Hulu. That's where I 103 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: watched it. Next up on my list, I want to 104 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 1: go all the way back to the seventies. I think 105 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: I got an email one saying that I don't talk 106 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: about movies from the seventies enough, so I want to 107 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 1: add an underrated movie from the seventies one of my 108 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: favorites that I just feel like, so many comedies now, 109 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: oh so much to this movie. And when you know, 110 00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 1: I see all these lists of like the funniest movies 111 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: of all time, I feel like this one doesn't get 112 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: reference enough. For one, how groundbreaking it was, to how 113 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 1: much movies kind of borrow from this formula now, and 114 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: three just kind of how it changed only comedy movies, 115 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: but college party movies in general. And the movie is 116 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 1: Animal House from Night. The A list actor is John Belushi, 117 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: which at the time when this movie came out, he 118 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 1: was as big as it got in comedy, but he 119 00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: was mainly known for TV. He was a star cast 120 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 1: member on SNL and that's really where he was a star. 121 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: But this was kind of his first film as that 122 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: established stars. So he was twenty eight years old, hadn't 123 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 1: been in any movie yet, but you put him in 124 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 1: this movie and it really just changed everything when it 125 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: came to comedy movies, and you also have a young 126 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: Kevin Bacon and they're just kind of starting out his 127 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 1: film career, and Animal House really just set the blueprint 128 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 1: for college comedies. Without this movie, there would be no 129 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: like American Pike To, no Project X, no Neighbors, no 130 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:33,280 Speaker 1: Old School. I think all those types of movies kind 131 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 1: of owe all their credit to what Animal House did. 132 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,719 Speaker 1: And it's really one of the funniest movies of all time. 133 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: I just think that it came out in night when 134 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 1: you come up with a list in you know, people 135 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,279 Speaker 1: listening their funniest movies. It kind of now just starts 136 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: in like the nineties, the two thousands, and then even 137 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: since then. I feel like comedies really haven't been a 138 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 1: thing in the last ten years. One because it's really hard, 139 00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: you know, to make things that are funny to a 140 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 1: massive amount of people now too. You probably couldn't make 141 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: a movie like Animal House today. A really a lot 142 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 1: of those seventies eighties comedies are based on things you 143 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: couldn't really do now anymore. And Three, I don't really 144 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 1: think we have that many comedic stars anymore, and the 145 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 1: ones we do have, I feel are so type cast 146 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 1: that there's not really kind of an ensemble comedy cast 147 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: like we've had and probably ten twenty years. So many 148 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 1: great lines in this movie, like that I'm a ZiT, 149 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,560 Speaker 1: the Toga chant, and I think one of my favorite 150 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 1: ones is when they get all called into the Dean's 151 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: office to list out and told their grade point averages. 152 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 1: I think that's one of my favorite scenes out of 153 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: the entire movie, when John Belushi's character he gets told 154 00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: that he has a zero point zero great average, Mr 155 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: Blue zero zero. On my List, the underrated movie from 156 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: the A List actor John Belushi is Animal House from eight. 157 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: If you haven't seen that movie, put it on your list. 158 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: Next up on my List, it's a movie I watched 159 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: as a kid back in nine and it's called Small Soldiers. 160 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 1: A couple of A List actors in this. Actually the 161 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 1: main toy character is voiced by Tommy Lee Jones and 162 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 1: he plays Lieutenant Chip Hazard in this movie, the leader 163 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: of the bad guys in this and then you also 164 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 1: have Kirston Dunce who was already an all out star 165 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:20,119 Speaker 1: from when she was a kid. And what this movie 166 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: is about, it's basically like toy story gone wrong and 167 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,720 Speaker 1: a lot more violent than you would expect the kids movie. 168 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: Now it is ready to PG. Thirteen, But I remember 169 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 1: the kid and being totally marketed just towards any kid, 170 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 1: and you also had the entire toy aspect to it, 171 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 1: the same way that Toy Story was. You go watch 172 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 1: the movie, then you want the toys. It really had 173 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,239 Speaker 1: the same kind of effect. But when you watch Small Soldiers, 174 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,839 Speaker 1: you realize that this movie was really just the movie 175 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 1: for adults, kind of pitch to kids. The violence was 176 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 1: more intense, the kids actually get hurt of this movie. 177 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: There's a little, not a whole lot of suggestive language, 178 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:58,839 Speaker 1: but I mean even the toys and one senior kind 179 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 1: of sexualized. So in disguise, it was kind of a 180 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 1: kids movie that was kind of marketed more towards tweens 181 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,320 Speaker 1: and teenagers. So basically what happens in the movie is 182 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 1: there's this teenager named Alan. His dad owns a toy 183 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 1: store a bunch of boring toys, So what does he 184 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 1: want to do. He wants to take this shipment of 185 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:21,439 Speaker 1: these new Commando elites to bring back and drive sales 186 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 1: to the store. But what he doesn't know is the 187 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 1: makers of this toy put some like really intense military 188 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: chips into them, so they are so smart that they're 189 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 1: actually able to fight back, and they try to essentially 190 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 1: take out humans. And I say that not lightly like 191 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 1: their actual goal in this movie is to kill humans. 192 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,679 Speaker 1: But it's a movie that feels very much like a 193 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:44,559 Speaker 1: nineties movie and one I just feel like gets overlooked 194 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 1: a lot when talking about movies from our childhood, and 195 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 1: I think I owe a lot of loving this movie 196 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 1: is the voice of Tommy Lee Jones. He plays a 197 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 1: really good kind of disgruntled military guy. I think every 198 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 1: movie he does he's a disgruntled guy. So I would 199 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: say this is one of my favor Tommy Lee Jones performances, 200 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,440 Speaker 1: a movie I think is underrated from him, and also 201 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: an underrated movie from Kirsten Dunn's early career. So on 202 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: the list would go Small Soldiers from n Up. Next 203 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: on my list, we'll go back a little bit more 204 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: into the eighties, which is another genre I don't talk 205 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: a whole lot about, but I have a lot of 206 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 1: favorite eighties movies, and I think this is one of 207 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,120 Speaker 1: my favorite eighties movies of all time, and it's from 208 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 1: Jeff Daniels in a movie called Something Wild, and I 209 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 1: remember the first time I watched this movie. Now, as 210 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 1: a kid, I didn't have a whole lot of VHS tapes. 211 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 1: We couldn't really afford those a whole lot unless we 212 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: were getting them from the garage sale. So I would 213 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 1: always just kind of scan the channels for anything just 214 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: played on regular TV, anything that I could get by 215 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 1: moving the bunny ears on the old Zenith TV. And 216 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: I would sit there on you know, Saturday afternoons and 217 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,560 Speaker 1: just scan anything. And a lot of my favorite movies 218 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 1: came from movies I would just find randomly on TV. 219 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 1: And one movie in particular was called Something Wild, starring 220 00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 1: not only Jeff Daniels but also ray Leota, and for 221 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 1: a while it was just one of my favorite movies. Now, 222 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 1: what the movie is about. Jeff Daniels, he's really just 223 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: like a uptight banker and he gets kidnapped by this 224 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 1: kind of free spirited, off the wall, complete opposite of 225 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 1: him woman played by Melanie Griffith, and she basically kind 226 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: of quote unquote kidnaps him and tries to take him 227 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: on this just crazy adventure. She wants him to pose 228 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,960 Speaker 1: as her husband at a high school reunion. They go 229 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: to the high school reunion, and that's where you meet 230 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: ray Leo and his character who is her ex, and 231 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: he basically confronts them, and that's kind of the synopsis 232 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: of the movie. But I think why I love this 233 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: movie so much is because I had actually seen Dumb 234 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: and Dumber before I watched this movie. But I remember 235 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: being so kind of captivated at how Harry from Dumb 236 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 1: and Dummer was playing a more serious role. And I 237 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 1: think since Dumb and Dumber, everybody kind of thinks of 238 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 1: him as that character a lot, but he's still a 239 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 1: lot of serious roles, since if you look at his 240 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 1: entire movie catalog, that's really the only straight up comedy 241 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 1: he's done, that kind of crazy en off the wall. 242 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,280 Speaker 1: But for me, it was this first role seeing him 243 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 1: like this that I really enjoyed seeing a movie that 244 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,440 Speaker 1: feels very eighties and I would describe as being one 245 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: of my favorite eighties movies of all time. One of 246 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 1: Jeff Daniels roles I just feel is underrated. So on 247 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 1: the list, I'm going with Something Wild from nineteen next 248 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 1: up on my list. A few a list stars in 249 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:34,959 Speaker 1: this one that I feel it's an underrated movie for 250 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 1: a movie starring Kristen Stewart, Ryan Reynolds, and Jesse Eisenberg 251 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 1: from two thousand and nine. In the movie is adventure Land. 252 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 1: It's a movie that takes place in the eighties. Again 253 00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: the eighties theme here that we have going. But what 254 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 1: I loved about this movie is, although it does take 255 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:56,280 Speaker 1: place in the eighties, it's not your stereotypical eighties looking movie. 256 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,000 Speaker 1: I think movies that you know, are made twenty years 257 00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 1: after the eighties, they often kind of represent the Eighties 258 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 1: in the same way, and the stereotypes, you know, the fashion, 259 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: the music, the overall plots, the set designed, the clothes, 260 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 1: all those things are kind of just stereotypical eighties and 261 00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 1: you know movies made later. But what I loved about 262 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 1: this one is it really kind of just incorporated and 263 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: encompassed that time of like what it would be like 264 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,959 Speaker 1: for normal people, and it's not overshadowed in any way 265 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 1: that it's taking place in the eighties. It just feels 266 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,080 Speaker 1: like a modern take on the eighties, which I loved. 267 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: And at the time Jesse Eisenberg was I felt like 268 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: in every movie. You know, he did really well in 269 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 1: the late two thousand's early probably more of an A 270 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: list star at that point than he is now. But 271 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:48,199 Speaker 1: then you also have Kristen Stewart coming off of Twilight, 272 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 1: Ryan Reynolds still kind of on his rise but still 273 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 1: well known name at the time, and then also you 274 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 1: can throw in Bill Hayter and Kristen Wig who are 275 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 1: all in this movie. So it's a really big cast 276 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 1: of all these big actors, and I just feel like 277 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: this movie gets overlooked a lot. So it's about Jesse 278 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:07,200 Speaker 1: Eisenberg's character plays a college kid who has this big 279 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: trip planned to go to Europe. Turns out his best 280 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 1: friend Bales, his parents tell them they're no longer going 281 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:14,679 Speaker 1: to pay for the trip, so he has to take 282 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,320 Speaker 1: a job at this local amusement park. And it's really 283 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 1: kind of a coming of age story of that period 284 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: of your life. And it all takes place over the summer, 285 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 1: which I love a movie that takes place over the summer. 286 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 1: So came out in two thousands and nine. I recently 287 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 1: watched it again on Netflix and still thought it held up. 288 00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 1: It's not a straight on comedy, it's kind of like 289 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 1: a drama da and I just really like Kristen Stewart 290 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 1: and Jesse Eisenberg together. They did another movie together called 291 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: American Ultra. I just think they have a lot of 292 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 1: on screen chemistry. But this is my favorite from the 293 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 1: both of them. So on the underrated movies from a 294 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 1: list actors Kristen Stewart, Jesse Eisenberg, and Ryan Reynolds, I'm 295 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 1: going with that adventure Land from two thousand and nine. 296 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 1: All Right, I have a few more here that I'll 297 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,000 Speaker 1: run through on my list. One is my favorite George 298 00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 1: Clooney movie from and it is from Just Till Dawn. 299 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 1: It's a movie about these two brothers. One is George Clooney, 300 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:07,320 Speaker 1: the other is Quentin Tarantino, and they're on the run 301 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 1: from the Texas Police and they do so by basically 302 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 1: hijacking this family's r V and forcing them to drive 303 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 1: them into Mexico where they go to a bar to 304 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: meet these people, and then you find out that everybody 305 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 1: in this bar is a vampire. I think George Clooney 306 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 1: was arguably his best in the nineties, and he's just 307 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: so charismatic in this movie. Plays a great lead because 308 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: it's a mix of action. It's a mix of horror 309 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: with a splash of weird, which I love and the 310 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 1: movie was written by Quentin Tarantino and directed by Robert Rodriguez, 311 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: a movie I can't recommend enough. My favorite George Clooney 312 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: movie I think is underrated from him from Dust Till 313 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: Dawn from another one I wanted to mention was one 314 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 1: of my favorite actors is Mark Wahlberg. I feel like 315 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 1: he's a very underrated actor in general, known mostly for 316 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: his act in movies. But where I think Mark Wahlberg 317 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,720 Speaker 1: kind of shines a little bit more is it's comedic movies, 318 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: and I think one of his underrated movies is Ted 319 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 1: From Now. It's from the mind of Seth McFarland, who 320 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: was the creator of Family Guy, and the best way 321 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:16,560 Speaker 1: I kind of described this movie, it's kind of a 322 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 1: live action Family Guy, and I think that's why I 323 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 1: loved it so much. Seth McFarland, who was a lot 324 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 1: of the voices on Family Guy, from Stuie to Peter 325 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:29,040 Speaker 1: to Brian Griffin. He is the voice of Ted, and 326 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 1: I almost feel like he does the exact same voice 327 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: that he does for Peter Griffin. But I think that, 328 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 1: paired with Mark Wahlberg's comedic performance in this movie, makes 329 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 1: it one of my favorite comedies. And yes it's dumb, 330 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: Yes it's ridiculous. Yes it's pretty much downright stupid. It's 331 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: basically the story of Mark Wahlberg's character who got this 332 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: teddy bear as a kid. The teddy bear talked and 333 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 1: they became friends and then stayed friends through his entire 334 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 1: teenage years, and now he's an adult and basically living 335 00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 1: the same way he did when he was a kid 336 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 1: with this teddy Bear. So if you're able to get 337 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,160 Speaker 1: through that dumb premise, it's actually a really good comedy. 338 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:08,479 Speaker 1: Mark Wahlberg Milacoonis. I think a lot of people just 339 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 1: write this off as another dumb comedy, but I feel 340 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 1: like it's very underrated and Mark Wahlberg at his comedic best. 341 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 1: So from underrated movie from Mark Wahlberg is Ted And 342 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 1: then finally on this list, as I was rounding through 343 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,560 Speaker 1: my favorite A list actors and their underrated movies, I 344 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,359 Speaker 1: came across one with two actors that I really loved 345 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 1: at the time that this movie came out. Jennifer Lawrence 346 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,720 Speaker 1: and Chris Pratt start together in a movie called Passengers, 347 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 1: and I think this was probably their biggest decade, you know, 348 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:41,440 Speaker 1: with the rise of like the Jurassic Park reboots, Guarding 349 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 1: into the Galaxy, Jennifer Lawrence coming off of The Hunger Games, 350 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,399 Speaker 1: and you know, doing these big oscar movies like Silver 351 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 1: Linings Playbook. They did a movie together, And I think 352 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,400 Speaker 1: what I loved more about this movie was the premise 353 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 1: behind it. I love sci fi, I love movies set 354 00:17:57,960 --> 00:18:00,280 Speaker 1: in space, I love movies set far into the fewer 355 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:03,160 Speaker 1: and this movie felt like maybe a dream I had 356 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: at some point, and it was. But I think I 357 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,760 Speaker 1: enjoyed the premise so much that no matter how the 358 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 1: movie was going to be executed, I was going to 359 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:13,439 Speaker 1: love it one because it already had two of my 360 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 1: favorite ALIS actors, Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt. But set 361 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:19,880 Speaker 1: a story about all these passengers going on this voyage 362 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,959 Speaker 1: to this new planet where everything's supposed to be amazing, 363 00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:25,960 Speaker 1: but they're putting these pods to go to sleep and 364 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,400 Speaker 1: not meant to wake up until years later to where 365 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,399 Speaker 1: they're awakened at this new planet. But what happens is 366 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 1: Chris Pratt's pod malfunction and he woke up ninety years 367 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: too early to when they're supposed to meet their destination, 368 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 1: and he starts to fall in love with the idea 369 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 1: of this other passenger by just reading about her story. 370 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 1: That passenger ends up being Jennifer Lawrence. So what does 371 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 1: he do. He decides to wake her up so he 372 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:50,920 Speaker 1: has somebody to spend the rest of the time with 373 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 1: because he's probably not going to live to see this 374 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 1: new colony planet. So the movie is one part sci 375 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,200 Speaker 1: fi and one part room Man's So I think the 376 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 1: movie just kind of also raises a bunch of questions 377 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,199 Speaker 1: of what you would do in that situation. You know, 378 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 1: the comment struck and damaged the ship, forcing you to 379 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,919 Speaker 1: wake up, you live a year in solitude. Would you 380 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 1: wake up another person just to have somebody to spend 381 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 1: your time with? Would you in turn fall in love 382 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,439 Speaker 1: with that person? And then would you tell that person 383 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:22,880 Speaker 1: what you did? Would you admit to lying to them 384 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 1: about it? So I think this is an underratted movie 385 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,919 Speaker 1: from both Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt. I think the 386 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,399 Speaker 1: movie really wasn't that well received by critics and didn't 387 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 1: perform as well as the box office as everybody was expecting. 388 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 1: It was at a time where, you know, space movies 389 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: were still big, but kind of on the way out 390 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 1: a little bit kind of falling off the success of Gravity, 391 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:45,119 Speaker 1: but I still thought myself really enjoying this one. If 392 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,160 Speaker 1: you're into sci fi and romance, I think you may 393 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,119 Speaker 1: like it too. So that is what I have on 394 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 1: this list, some underrated movies or some A list actors. 395 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:53,679 Speaker 1: If there's one you think you would add to the 396 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:55,679 Speaker 1: list from one of your favorite actors, let me know. 397 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:57,880 Speaker 1: Send me a tweet, send me a d m at 398 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 1: Mike Destro on Instagram and Twitter, or you can always 399 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 1: shoot me an email movie Mike d at gmail dot com. Alright, 400 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 1: going to get into a spoiler free movie review now 401 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 1: talking about what is now Netflix's most watched movie of 402 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,919 Speaker 1: all time. The movie has red Notice, starring Dwayne the 403 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 1: Rock Johnson, Ryan Reynolds, and Gal Gado, three big A 404 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 1: list actors all in one movie. So how could it fail? Right? 405 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 1: A movie I wasn't entirely like hyped to watch. I 406 00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 1: think I'm kind of just a little bit tired of 407 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 1: the Rock being and everything. I'm a little bit over 408 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 1: Ryan Reynolds after watching Free Guy. I like gal Gado 409 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 1: as wonder Woman, but I haven't really got into any 410 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 1: of our other movies, so I was curious to see 411 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:47,640 Speaker 1: how three actors of their caliber and how their chemistry 412 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 1: would be on screen. So before I get into this review, 413 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: here is just a little bit of Netflix's Red Notice. 414 00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:02,640 Speaker 1: Pew Clever, Key Strokes and Bye Bye and John Hartley. 415 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:10,239 Speaker 1: She's gonna steal Cleopatra's eggs. They're priceless. We cut her 416 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 1: together like a queer in my name, and I'll help 417 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 1: you become the number one thief in the world. Again 418 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:16,880 Speaker 1: in your neck. If I did partner up a few, 419 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 1: you still only have one brags. So let's get into 420 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 1: what Red Notice is about. It's about Ryan Reynolds character. 421 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 1: He is an international art thief said to be the 422 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 1: self proclaimed number one art thief in the world, and 423 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:38,159 Speaker 1: he is trying to steal one of these eggs, and 424 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: they are Cleopatra's eggs. There are actually three of them 425 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,920 Speaker 1: in the world, and the goal of all the bad 426 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 1: people in this movie is to acquire all three eggs, 427 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 1: which at the start of this movie, I just thought 428 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: that premise was a little bit dumb. It started out 429 00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 1: very cheesy. It kind of felt like a nineties old 430 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 1: school kind of action movie that you would like I 431 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 1: was talking about earlier, probably watch on like a Saturday 432 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 1: matinee on some random network TV channel. And in the movie, 433 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:11,440 Speaker 1: The Rock plays an FBI agent who comes into foil 434 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 1: Ryan Reynolds's plan to steal this first egg, and in 435 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 1: turn he gets set up by gal Gado's character, who 436 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,879 Speaker 1: is known as the Bishop in the movie. Again, this 437 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,200 Speaker 1: is all from the trailer, so it's not a spoiler 438 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:26,159 Speaker 1: in anyway. She frames The Rock as being kind of 439 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 1: in cahoots with Ryan Reynolds to steal this egg. So 440 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 1: The Rock has to team up with Ryan reynolds character 441 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 1: to in turn stop gal Gado from her evil plan. 442 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 1: So again, that's kind of a lot to explain, but 443 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 1: when you watch the movie, it becomes a little more 444 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,359 Speaker 1: apparent what they're trying to do. I just feel like 445 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 1: they were trying to do too much in this movie. 446 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 1: And the initial thing that kind of took me out 447 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:49,399 Speaker 1: of this movie was the acting. And I felt like 448 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 1: The Rock was a little bit too much The Rock. 449 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,160 Speaker 1: I felt like Ryan Reynolds was a little too Ryan Reynolds. 450 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,959 Speaker 1: He was he now I feel was a little bit typecast. 451 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:02,160 Speaker 1: He's kind of the wacky, wise cracking, kind of dead 452 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 1: Pool character in every single movie that he does. And 453 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,360 Speaker 1: after watching Free Guy. I kind of had enough of that, 454 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 1: and I like Ryan reynolds movies. I was just talking 455 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:12,679 Speaker 1: about adventure Land earlier, but I just think, for the 456 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 1: first time, I'm having a little bit too much Rock. 457 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 1: I'm having a little bit too much Ryan Reynolds. And 458 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 1: I know he's actually about to take a break from 459 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:22,120 Speaker 1: acting after his movie comes out next year with Will Ferrell, 460 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: so maybe even Ryan Reynolds is feeling a little bit 461 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 1: of Ryan Reynolds fatigue. So I actually think that my 462 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 1: favorite part of this movie was Gal Gadot's performance. But again, 463 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 1: all of their characters felt a little bit too campy, 464 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 1: and the whole kind of story felt a little bit 465 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 1: too textbook movie, which isn't a bad thing, and I 466 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,159 Speaker 1: guess I was expecting a little bit more levels or 467 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 1: layers to the story, but it was very straightforward. So 468 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: while the acting wasn't there for me, while the comedy 469 00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 1: wasn't there for me, I just felt like the jokes 470 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:51,840 Speaker 1: kind of fell flat. There were a lot of just 471 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:56,080 Speaker 1: kind of your same quirky references that Ryan Reynolds character does, 472 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:59,080 Speaker 1: you know, just your references to pop culture, your references 473 00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 1: to internet culture, all those are kind of just in 474 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 1: there and kind of expected. So the movie didn't really 475 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 1: make me laugh at all. The only time it really 476 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 1: made me laugh was the scenes that were so kind 477 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:11,199 Speaker 1: of cheesy action, which I enjoyed so kind of in 478 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 1: the moments that I think maybe you weren't supposed to laugh, 479 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,639 Speaker 1: I found myself laughing. But given all of that that, 480 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: I didn't really love the acting or the comedy in it. 481 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,719 Speaker 1: I thought that straight up action and it was exactly 482 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: what it was supposed to be, a big Hollywood production 483 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 1: with big explosions, big guns, big fight scenes, and I 484 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:29,919 Speaker 1: think the pacing and that really kept me entertained throughout 485 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 1: the entire movie, and it kept me kind of wanting 486 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 1: to go along the entire two hour ride in this 487 00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 1: So why I felt it didn't kind of meet my 488 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 1: expectations of it being kind of the next level kind 489 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 1: of step for Netflix. I thought I did a really 490 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 1: good job of taking away what you expect a streaming 491 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 1: movie to be. And now that it's Netflix is most 492 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:54,119 Speaker 1: watched movie of all time, I kind of see now 493 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,640 Speaker 1: more and more how that's going to happen more effectively 494 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 1: now just their past Bird Box of being the movie 495 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,119 Speaker 1: that most people have seen on Netflix, which I found 496 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,200 Speaker 1: surprising because when that movie came out a few years ago, 497 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 1: and I felt like that was one that we all 498 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 1: experienced together. It was over Christmas break and I felt 499 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:13,639 Speaker 1: like everybody watched that movie, and it was such a 500 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: big accomplishment for Netflix to have like that real first 501 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 1: big movie hit to where people, you know, didn't really 502 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 1: just think about them of having all these successful TV series, 503 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 1: We were like, Okay, Netflix actually puts out quality movies 504 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:27,160 Speaker 1: that kind of hold up to all the other movies 505 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:29,920 Speaker 1: coming out in theaters. I didn't really felt like this 506 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 1: one had that same effect. I think what it was 507 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,679 Speaker 1: was having three big actors like this to where it 508 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:36,479 Speaker 1: was kind of too big to fail. When you have 509 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: the Rock promoting this movie on Instagram with video after video, 510 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:43,879 Speaker 1: post after post, story after story, I felt like it 511 00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 1: got out there so much. And a lot of that 512 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 1: is it being so well promoted, aside from the content 513 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: of the movie, you know, really spreading through word of mouth. 514 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 1: I just think it was right there big on the 515 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 1: splash page when you turn on Netflix that a lot 516 00:25:57,840 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 1: of people went to watch it. And Netflix also has 517 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:02,679 Speaker 1: a lot more subscribers since bird Box came out, so 518 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,359 Speaker 1: I don't really feel like that title holds as much 519 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,879 Speaker 1: as it did for bird Box, But I do see 520 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: the direction now that Netflix can go with putting out 521 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 1: the same quality movies as you would see in theaters 522 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 1: and not think anything different about it. It's just about 523 00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 1: getting eyeballs on the screen at this point, and Netflix 524 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:21,679 Speaker 1: has the power to do that. The most people are 525 00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 1: going to see it, and you have them paying the Rock, 526 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 1: Gal Gadot and Ryan Reynolds twenty million dollars each for 527 00:26:28,040 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 1: this movie, and they spent in total two million dollars 528 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 1: for this movie. So yeah, it was going to be 529 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: the most much movie just by how much they invested 530 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,920 Speaker 1: in it. It had to be. So overall, I would say, 531 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:41,720 Speaker 1: this is just a really good popcorn movie. And where 532 00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 1: I think this movie kind of shines is that it's 533 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,879 Speaker 1: a very good escape as a movie, a movie. I 534 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 1: didn't really think about anything else while I was watching it, 535 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 1: and I think that's what a good movie does and 536 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 1: what we actually turned to movies for. It doesn't have 537 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 1: to be the most captivating thing, doesn't have to be 538 00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,640 Speaker 1: the most groundbreaking thing, But for those two hours while 539 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:01,880 Speaker 1: you're watching Team this movie, you just kind of feel 540 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: good like you're not thinking about real problems. The movie 541 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:08,160 Speaker 1: doesn't have any real political references. There's just nothing about 542 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 1: this movie that makes you kind of think about the 543 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:12,959 Speaker 1: real world. And that's really what a good movie like 544 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:16,680 Speaker 1: this is supposed to do. It's supposed to appeal to everybody. 545 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 1: And yeah, maybe the joke's fall a little flat. But 546 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,119 Speaker 1: while they don't, you know, really hit on me as 547 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 1: a thirty year old movie nerd, they probably kind of 548 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 1: resonate more with like a younger kid or teenager, So 549 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,159 Speaker 1: I get that. I think it's a movie that critics 550 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: will probably slam pretty hard for, you know, not meeting 551 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 1: those standards. But a movie now that I would say, 552 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 1: if around the holidays you're just looking for something to 553 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:39,640 Speaker 1: watch for the entire family, something just like simple, kind 554 00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 1: of just it is what it is movie. I think 555 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,479 Speaker 1: it's a solid pick. I will end by this. I 556 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:46,679 Speaker 1: did find some of the plot lines in this movie 557 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:50,399 Speaker 1: just downright infuriating that I wanted to at some point 558 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,639 Speaker 1: just see I'll come on at the screen like I 559 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 1: was supposed to buy into this, But I was fine 560 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 1: with it. I finished watching the movie and just thought, overall, 561 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 1: I enjoyed it. I don't think I could give this 562 00:28:01,040 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 1: movie a solid three, like it's right there on the 563 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 1: border of that. It took me a bit of the 564 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:09,119 Speaker 1: movie to kind of fully be into investing my entire 565 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,720 Speaker 1: time into it. So just for the sake of continuity 566 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,600 Speaker 1: of my rating system, I will give this movie a 567 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:20,240 Speaker 1: light three out of five golden eggs, a good not 568 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:23,880 Speaker 1: great movie. And I hate giving it that golden egg 569 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:25,920 Speaker 1: reference because I just thought that was kind of the 570 00:28:25,960 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: dumb part of the movie, like that they have to 571 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 1: really be finding eggs. It seems very cheesy to me. 572 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 1: But I'm curious to see how this movie continues to 573 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 1: grow over the holidays as more and more people watch it, 574 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 1: and what movie will kind of knock this movie out 575 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 1: of the top spot, because I think the next big 576 00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 1: movie they do, they're gonna want it to beat this movie. 577 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 1: So I just think that kind of title of being 578 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 1: the most watched Netflix movie doesn't really hold what it 579 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 1: used to. But those are my thoughts on Red Notice. 580 00:28:57,480 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: And now it's time for the part of the podcast 581 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 1: where I break down movie trailers of movies coming to 582 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 1: streaming in theaters very soon in a segment we call 583 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 1: It's time to Head Down to movie Mike Trail Lard Paul, 584 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 1: and the first trailer we're looking at today is Jurassic 585 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 1: World Dominion, which they pretty much just released the entire 586 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 1: first five minutes of this movie, so something I haven't 587 00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 1: really seen a lot of movies do before, they released 588 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 1: the entire prologue. So before I get into what I 589 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 1: think about this new Jurassic World movie, after seeing this, 590 00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 1: here's just a little bit of that Damn, I don't fit, 591 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:48,520 Speaker 1: you fit, you can't run forever. So I do think 592 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,120 Speaker 1: that was pretty cool. They put up the first five 593 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: minutes of the movie, so if you searched that up 594 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,720 Speaker 1: on YouTube, you can also watch the first five minutes 595 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 1: of this new movie. Now, this is the third installment 596 00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 1: of this Jurassic World reboot, and I feel like these 597 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 1: movies haven't been as memorable as the original Jurassic Park movies, 598 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 1: but I still find them very enjoyable. I still think 599 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 1: they're very fun. I think for me, while I was 600 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 1: watching this, I get kind of taken out of it 601 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:17,560 Speaker 1: by the special effects, something that was so kind of 602 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 1: special about the first movies. Granted they were made in 603 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 1: the nineties where a lot of this technology really wasn't 604 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 1: there they were basically having to figure out how to 605 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 1: do these computer graphic generated dinosaurs in this movie and 606 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 1: technology that wasn't even created at the time. So what 607 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 1: they did a lot in those movies is they made 608 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 1: actual animatronic dinosaurs that they used and the actors could 609 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 1: interact with, which I thought gave a different feel to 610 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 1: that first Jurassic Park movie to where it felt a 611 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 1: little bit more like an emotional connection there and between 612 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 1: the animatronics and the actual special effects that it did. 613 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 1: In the first one, I thought it did a really 614 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 1: good job of the really close personal scenes, felt like 615 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 1: there was an act to old dinosaur there in the 616 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 1: presence of the actors. But when you get into the 617 00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 1: movies now, it's really just all c g I computer generated. 618 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 1: What will you see in those entire five minutes, it's 619 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 1: basically sixty five million years before it gets the current day, 620 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 1: and then you see several dinosaurs escaping and basically reading 621 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:20,480 Speaker 1: havoc at this drive in movie. So I wouldn't say 622 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 1: the first two movies in this reboot series have been 623 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 1: the best. I do find them enjoyable to watch in theaters. 624 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 1: I think Chris Pratt does a pretty good job in 625 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:31,960 Speaker 1: these movies. Again, it's just a lot of Chris Pratt. 626 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 1: I feel like we're kind of maxed out on all 627 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: the A list actors Hollywood is using right now. So 628 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 1: we're getting a new Jurassic World with Chris Pratt, and 629 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 1: then we got the Super Mario movie voiced by Chris Pratt. 630 00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 1: He's going to be in the next Guardians of the 631 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 1: Galaxy movie, and he's also been announced as the voice 632 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:48,920 Speaker 1: of Garfield in an upcoming movie. So it's a lot 633 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 1: of Chris Pratt. But good thing about the Jurassic World 634 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,120 Speaker 1: movies is I feel like the dinosaurs are the star, 635 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:56,320 Speaker 1: so I think I'll be okay seeing them again in 636 00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 1: this one. Next up in the trailer park is a 637 00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 1: new animated movie Hall DC League of Pets. You basically 638 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 1: have a d C movie if you were taking like 639 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 1: The Secret Life of Pets and doing that with superhero characters. 640 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 1: A lot of big name voices in this from Dwayne Johnson, 641 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 1: John Krasinski, Kevin Harkey on the Reeves, Kate McKinnon, the 642 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: list goes on and on and on. It kind of 643 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 1: just sounds like they took the approach of getting a 644 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 1: bunch of big names to sell this animated movie, which 645 00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 1: I'm not the biggest fan of, But here's just a 646 00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 1: little bit of that trailer. If it isn't The Justice 647 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 1: League Superman, what's fine on? You're super strong? I should 648 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 1: be a lot more dead right now. Right my best 649 00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:45,480 Speaker 1: friend is in danger and you have to help me. 650 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 1: We're just a bunch of shelter pets, but they're stronger 651 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 1: than you think. So what happened in this movie. It's Superman, 652 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 1: who was voiced by John Krasinski, and his dog is 653 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,760 Speaker 1: voiced by The Rock. The Justice League gets captured by 654 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,040 Speaker 1: Lakes Luthor and all the super pets have to come 655 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 1: together to rescue their owners. So it's all the other 656 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 1: members of the Justice League's pets from like Batman to 657 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 1: Wonder Woman, and they all have different superpowers. So if 658 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:12,560 Speaker 1: you've seen the animated movie The Secret Life of Pets, 659 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 1: I feel like this is exactly that movie. I feel 660 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,479 Speaker 1: like it's exactly that movie. Even the casting in this. 661 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 1: You have Kevin hard in this movie. He was also 662 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 1: in the Secret Life of Pets. So I actually like 663 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:24,720 Speaker 1: The Secret Life of Pets the first one that is. 664 00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,280 Speaker 1: I'm not embarrassed at all to go see a kids 665 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 1: movie as an adult man by myself. I like the 666 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 1: added element of there being some superhero references to this, 667 00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 1: but I do have to say this is not the 668 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 1: direction I wanted DC to go in mainstream animated movies. 669 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,400 Speaker 1: I recently talked about a movie called The Death of Superman, 670 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:43,600 Speaker 1: which I thought was one of the best DC movies 671 00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 1: I've ever seen, live action or not, being an animated movie. 672 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 1: I thought it was amazing, and I think their storytelling 673 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 1: really is able to cut through animation to the point 674 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 1: to where you don't even realize you're watching an animated 675 00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 1: movie while watching that movie. If you want to check 676 00:33:57,640 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 1: that one out, it is on HBO Max. But I 677 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 1: kind of wanted them to go more in that direction. 678 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 1: I think that would definitely make them stick out for Marvel, 679 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 1: which I think it is a bit tough to get 680 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:10,960 Speaker 1: people in adults to want to go see an animated 681 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 1: movie meant for adults. So I think they're looking for 682 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,800 Speaker 1: a hit here because one, you got the A list cast, 683 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 1: Two you have an appealing to kids, Three you have 684 00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:22,359 Speaker 1: the superhero elements. So I think this movie will make 685 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:24,640 Speaker 1: a bunch of money at the box office, kind of 686 00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:26,480 Speaker 1: a cash grab. It feels like to me, and it 687 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:28,840 Speaker 1: also doesn't feel like it has a place in the 688 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,600 Speaker 1: DC world, Like I don't think this movie is necessarily 689 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:33,319 Speaker 1: going to line up with all the other things they 690 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:36,160 Speaker 1: have going on right now. What looks like a fun 691 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,279 Speaker 1: and cute movie, one I won't be rushing to the 692 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:42,359 Speaker 1: theaters to get to see. Well, probably when it comes 693 00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 1: out on HBO Max I will watch this one, but 694 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:49,400 Speaker 1: it does hit theaters on MAO, and that's gonna do 695 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:51,160 Speaker 1: it for the trailer park, and that's gonna do it 696 00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:53,319 Speaker 1: for this week's episode. But before I hop out of here, 697 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:55,120 Speaker 1: every single week I give a shout out to one 698 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,880 Speaker 1: of you who listens to the podcast and sends me 699 00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,399 Speaker 1: a message on Instagram, tweets me at my de stro, 700 00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 1: or shoots me an email at movie Mike d at 701 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 1: gmail dot com.

So I always just want 723 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 1: to bring you movie content. And you know what you 724 00:36:06,680 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 1: get when you click play on this podcast if all 725 00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 1: you want is thirty minutes of just some guy ranting 726 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:13,799 Speaker 1: and what he likes about movies, what he doesn't like 727 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 1: about movies. I want this to be that place for 728 00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 1: you to come and enjoy, to share with your friends, 729 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,839 Speaker 1: to tell people about, but just kind of building this 730 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 1: little movie community has really meant a lot to me. 731 00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 1: And if this podcast is anyway is able to get 732 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:30,640 Speaker 1: your mind off of, you know, the bad days you're having, 733 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,279 Speaker 1: the rough stuff you're going through in your life. You know, 734 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 1: that's why I really look to movies. That's when that's 735 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:37,759 Speaker 1: always been to me my entire life, and why I 736 00:36:37,800 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 1: do this podcast. So I think altogether, collectively us watching 737 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:44,840 Speaker 1: movies talking about movies, that's the entire goal here, to 738 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 1: have this safe space to where we can just only 739 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:49,920 Speaker 1: think about that for the entire time we're listening to 740 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:53,239 Speaker 1: this podcast. That's why I love doing this for you, 741 00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:56,080 Speaker 1: silas for anyone else listening who just needs to hear 742 00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 1: that I am here for you. I can admit the 743 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:01,799 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks in my life have been a 744 00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:05,240 Speaker 1: little bit chaotic. If you're not familiar with the Bobby 745 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,759 Speaker 1: Bones Show, we did announce on there that we are 746 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:10,360 Speaker 1: currently doing the radio show and now in turn of 747 00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:14,360 Speaker 1: this podcast from a country in Central America and related 748 00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:16,439 Speaker 1: to this podcast, I think one of the hardest things 749 00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 1: for me is I haven't been able to go to 750 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:21,760 Speaker 1: a movie theater in like three weeks now because there's 751 00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:24,920 Speaker 1: not a movie theater around here and I think the 752 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:27,880 Speaker 1: closest one to me just shows like really old movies, 753 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 1: so I couldn't really go watch a lot of the 754 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:31,400 Speaker 1: new movies and theaters that I want to go see. 755 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:33,600 Speaker 1: So if you've noticed, a lot of the reviews have 756 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 1: switched to movies that I can watch on Netflix. So 757 00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:38,640 Speaker 1: I can't wait to get back home, go to a 758 00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:42,320 Speaker 1: movie theater and check out probably King Richard, and really 759 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,160 Speaker 1: can't wait to watch the new Spider Man movie in theaters. 760 00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:46,799 Speaker 1: That's been kind of my light at the end of 761 00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 1: the tunnel, getting to see that movie. So I appreciate 762 00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:51,880 Speaker 1: you for listening to this week's episode. I hope you 763 00:37:51,920 --> 00:37:54,240 Speaker 1: have a great rest of your week, and until next time. 764 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:54,920 Speaker 1: Later
