So she 31 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: tries to track down the one person who can stop 32 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 1: this cycle, which is her grandmother named Iris, and hopefully 33 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:44,960 Speaker 1: her grandma can save her and her entire family from death. 34 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: Final Destination Bloodlines is now available on digital and will 35 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: be on four k UHD on July twenty second.

I'm a huge comic book nerd. 41 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 1: I'm a huge fan of your movie. I love movies 42 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: that affect my personal life. And after I finished watching Bloodlines, 43 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 1: I was driving home, and I've never driven home more cautiously. 44 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: I was paying attention to every red light. When I 45 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 1: got out of my car, I was running inside the 46 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 1: house because I was so worried that something was gonna 47 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:20,920 Speaker 1: go wrong. And this movie just has me even freaked 48 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: out about the things inside my house. So I have 49 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: to imagine when you guys are making this movie, does 50 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: it start to affect your mental state of like, I'm 51 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,119 Speaker 1: getting a little paranoid because everything I'm seeing every day. 52 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 3: It's a mix of both. You're completely paranoid and looking 53 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 3: at everything with this weird sort of like is this 54 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 3: gonna get me type attitude, but you're also then going ooh, 55 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 3: that's good. I could put that in the film, And 56 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 3: so you're kind of like having this this kind of 57 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 3: anxious perspective on the world. But it's also your muse, 58 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 3: which is which is an interesting place to be. 59 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,239 Speaker 2: I couldn't wear my wedding ring for like two years 60 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 2: because every time I put it on it just felt 61 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 2: a little bit too gip. 62 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 1: I could tell by watching this movie that you guys 63 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 1: went back and rewatched all the movies. Do you start 64 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: to assemble like this list of rules of like, Okay, 65 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 1: this is what death can do, this is what death 66 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: will do. 67 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, we've probably dived deeper than most people have ever 68 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 3: dove into the final destination sort of rule book. There's 69 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 3: kind of clear things that you see from previous movies 70 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 3: that kind of death can or can't do. But we 71 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 3: also like built this massive spreadsheet of every different set 72 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 3: piece from the previous movies and categorize them and like 73 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 3: exactly how they worked, how many omens each one had, 74 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 3: if the audience was or was aware of certain things, 75 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 3: if the characters were aware of certain things, how long 76 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 3: they were, and also like how they related to the 77 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 3: different types of deaths next to each other. And by 78 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 3: doing that huge deep dive, it really gave us a 79 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 3: deep understanding of all the different ways you know, that 80 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 3: death can come from people. Often people just think, oh, 81 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 3: there's these crazy death sequences, but they're actually quite uniquely 82 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 3: different the way that they're structured. You know, some of 83 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 3: them happened very quickly, some of them the audience knows 84 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,160 Speaker 3: all this sorts of stuff, and the characters don't. Some 85 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 3: of them, the characters know exactly what's going down, but 86 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 3: they're trapped and so like, there's a lot of different 87 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 3: ways that it works, and we were huge nerds on 88 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 3: that to make sure that we kind of had one 89 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:13,840 Speaker 3: of each type. 90 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 2: And the producers, Craig Perry and Sheila Taylor, they were 91 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:19,160 Speaker 2: also with us, you know, for the whole three years 92 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 2: we were making this movie, and they've made the other 93 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:25,840 Speaker 2: ones as well, so they were also like great sources 94 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 2: of wisdom on what how death works. So it was 95 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 2: a big collaboration with the whole team. 96 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 3: It's really fun as a filmmaker because death isn't personified 97 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 3: in the movie. Most horror films or slasher films have 98 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,160 Speaker 3: a bad guy or a monster or a shark or whatever, 99 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 3: and in this case, it's just the filmmaking that's creating 100 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 3: a sense as a sense that there's a presence there 101 00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 3: that's making a beer bottle look scary or whatever it's doing. 102 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 3: And that's so much fun as a filmmaker because it 103 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 3: basically makes us death and so we just had so 104 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 3: much fun building all those sequences that way. 105 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 1: Speaking of being a film maker, what was the first 106 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: movie you watched that you saw and thought, man, that 107 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: is the movie that now makes me want to be 108 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 1: a director. 109 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 3: Wow. I mean, for me, there's sort of two movies 110 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 3: that come to mind. One, I saw The Jurassic Park 111 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 3: when I was nine years old in theaters and it 112 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 3: was the scariest horror film I've ever seen in my 113 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 3: life and convincement I was going to die in the 114 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 3: theater and have kind of been chasing that feeling ever since. 115 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 3: And then when I was thirteen, the Matrix came out, 116 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 3: and that was when I was making movies, and every 117 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 3: movie I made that summer was a rip off of 118 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 3: the Matrix, and that that's kind of the movie that 119 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 3: made me want to Then, just the feeling of watching 120 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 3: The Matrix and then wanting to just make the Matrix 121 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,160 Speaker 3: over and over and over again. It's sort of been 122 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 3: something I've been chasing ever since. 123 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 2: For me, it was probably Star Wars, just watching the 124 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 2: original trilogy again and again on VHS, you know, plus 125 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:47,600 Speaker 2: all the e Walk spin offs, and you know, just 126 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 2: like I was the biggest you know, Star Wars kid 127 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 2: growing up, and the magic and epicness of that series 128 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 2: was probably early inspiration. 129 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 1: All great picks. The movie had me just sucked in 130 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 1: from the very beginning. It was just a monstrous opening 131 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: sequence and I think my favorite performance of the entire 132 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 1: movie came in that opening sequence, and it was seventy 133 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,039 Speaker 1: one year old stunt performer javette Ferguson, who became has 134 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 1: the world record now for being the oldest actor to 135 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 1: be set on fire. Could you tell me about that 136 00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:18,599 Speaker 1: that stunt and how that went down to day? 137 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 2: Well, we had an amazing stunt team. I mean the 138 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:27,039 Speaker 2: stunt coordinators. They're in charge of kind of you know, 139 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 2: helping us pick the stunt people that will do specific gags. 140 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 2: So Simon who's our stunt coordinator, and Dustin Brooks who 141 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 2: is his co coordinator assistant coordinator, they know everyone in Vancouver, 142 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 2: and they were kind of presenting different options and they said, 143 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 2: what about what about. 144 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:45,360 Speaker 1: The event here? 145 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 2: Like she's she's been on the older side, but would 146 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 2: you guys be open to that? And we were like, yes, 147 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 2: that's amazing and a event for her part. She's been 148 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 2: a long time stunt person, but she was so excited 149 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 2: to do it because she said, my whole family's been 150 00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 2: on fire and I've never been on fire, Like, thank 151 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 2: you so much for giving me this opportunity, well. 152 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 3: She thought she would never. She thought, basically, I'm retiring 153 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 3: and I never got lit on fire. I never because 154 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 3: doing a full body burn for a stunt person is 155 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 3: sort of a rites of passage. It's like they all 156 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 3: look forward to having that opportunity because it doesn't happen 157 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 3: that often. And so she was so grateful to get 158 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 3: that ability. And yeah, she ran like sixty feet entirely 159 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 3: on fire. And then what I don't think many people 160 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 3: realize is she ran on fire through the whole restaurant 161 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 3: and then ran into an actual propane leak that then 162 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 3: exploded all around her with a giant fireball of propane. 163 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 3: So like, not only was she on fire, she run it, 164 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 3: she like lit an explosion. At the end of running 165 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 3: on fire, they. 166 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:45,400 Speaker 2: Cover themselves with this special gel that has been gone 167 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 2: through very different evolution and over the years, but the 168 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 2: latest version of it was invented basically by our stunt team, 169 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 2: this fire protective fire gel that's flammable and also protects 170 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:57,760 Speaker 2: the stunt people somehow. 171 00:07:58,600 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 1: And they just want an. 172 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 2: Oscar, a side tech oscar for the fire jail. This year, 173 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 2: Dustin and Colin won that oscar for the fire jel 174 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 2: that was used in our movie. 175 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: That is so amazing. I think my second favorite kill 176 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 1: is probably Julia in the garbage truck, and I have 177 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: just questions about the difference between when to decide to 178 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 1: make something with practical effects or when do you cgi 179 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 1: for that scene specifically, how do you decide what are 180 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 1: we going to do like here on set and what 181 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: are we going to do in post production. 182 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 2: I think our approach is trying to do the practical 183 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:36,600 Speaker 2: gag as far as it will go, and then augment 184 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 2: it with CG after capturing it. So in terms of 185 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 2: how it's built, it's really collaboration with the team. But 186 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 2: for each death we go, okay, so how would we 187 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 2: do this if we were doing this back in the 188 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 2: nineteen eighties completely practically, and the team brainstorms and figures 189 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 2: it out. For the Julia death, in particular, they built 190 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 2: this amazing garbage truck rig that had this metal plate 191 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,679 Speaker 2: with metal rods rubber tips so that it could extend 192 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 2: into her face and hug the contours of her face 193 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 2: looking like it's pressing in, and then in the computer 194 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 2: after they just replaced the metal rods with a flat 195 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 2: metal piece so it looks like it's truly going into 196 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,880 Speaker 2: and interacting with her face. And then we also built 197 00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 2: a makeup effects. 198 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 3: Fake head. 199 00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 2: That was pretty you know, kind of molded these three 200 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 2: D skinned on a Lauri who played Julia, and then 201 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 2: built a fake head that we crushed for real. And 202 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 2: then they take those two elements, the crushed head and 203 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 2: the real on a Lauri performance, and in the computer 204 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,080 Speaker 2: it kind of meld them together and morphed them and 205 00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 2: stuff like that. So basically getting the practical elements and 206 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 2: then using the computer to kind of tie it all together. 207 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: My final question is for you, Zach. I was a 208 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 1: huge fan of Goosebumps growing up, and I it was 209 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,679 Speaker 1: my dream be on that show someday. But you were 210 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 1: on an episode of Goosebumps. What was your experience like 211 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 1: on that show? 212 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 3: For me, it was an incredible dream come true because 213 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 3: I was ten or eleven at the time, so everyone 214 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 3: in my grade was reading goose Bumps. That's all we 215 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 3: were all doing. And then to be then it was 216 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 3: also my first time as an actor being flown somewhere 217 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 3: because I lived in Vancouver, but it was shooting in Toronto, 218 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,440 Speaker 3: and so flying to Toronto to then be in this 219 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 3: you know, incredible kind of thing that you would read about, 220 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 3: and r al Stein being this mythic cre you know, 221 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 3: person that actually like created all these twisted tales, and 222 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 3: the other fun weird thing is just for whatever reason 223 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 3: because in the season they were kind of running behind. 224 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 3: We would shoot all night. They would never like we 225 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 3: were shooting nights, even though most of it was inside 226 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 3: and like so it was like living like a vampire 227 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 3: for like two weeks in Toronto and reclimbed the bookcase. Yeah, 228 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 3: the first thing I had the first this is in 229 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 3: the nineties, you know, things were just a little bit 230 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 3: more loose back then. But yeah, the first thing that 231 00:10:58,080 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 3: happens in that episode, if you go watch it, is 232 00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 3: like I'm trying to like climb up a bookcase looking 233 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,440 Speaker 3: for presents at the top of this bookcase, and then 234 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 3: it starts to tip and I jump off and it 235 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 3: falls and just like barely crushes me. And we just 236 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 3: like just did that. Basically, They're just like, yeah, just 237 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,559 Speaker 3: climb up, and then as you're jumping down, we're just 238 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 3: gonna push it over. And I was pret and I 239 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 3: look back, going that was pretty weird that they just 240 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 3: let us do that. 241 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 2: But safety is like so present these days. And even 242 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:30,760 Speaker 2: though we did so many things that looked like they 243 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 2: killed people in my lascination, the same dy was like 244 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 2: incredibly top notch. It's pretty it's pretty amazing how the 245 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 2: team you know, keeps everyone so. 246 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 3: There's probably no there's probably. 247 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:44,200 Speaker 1: No fire blasts and everything. 248 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 3: No worse job than head of safety on a final 249 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,199 Speaker 3: Destination movie. I can only imagine the anxiety. 250 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,199 Speaker 1: Yeah, who knew the set of Goosebumps was more dangerous 251 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 1: than you guys said? Well, I really appreciate the time. 252 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 1: Thank you guys so much. 253 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:57,719 Speaker 3: Thanks thanks much. 254 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,600 Speaker 1: Before we get into this week's review, how about some 255 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: movie news because one of my favorite pieces of movie 256 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:06,600 Speaker 1: news came out last week. I was so excited John 257 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 1: Burnhal's Punisher will appear in Spider Man Brand New Day. 258 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:15,559 Speaker 1: That is really exciting to me. I think the Punisher 259 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 1: is one of the most underutilized characters in the MCU. 260 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 1: I mean, even if you go back to the two 261 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 1: thousand and four Punisher movie, which at that time I 262 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 1: don't really hold anything against Marvel, they were trying anything 263 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: with the characters they had the rights to. That movie's 264 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,960 Speaker 1: not a good movie. But what John Burnhal has done 265 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 1: with the character. I think has done what Robert Downey 266 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 1: Junior did to Iron Man. Where before iron Man with 267 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,079 Speaker 1: Robert Downey Jr. In two thousand and eight, that wasn't 268 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:50,320 Speaker 1: one of Marvel's most popular characters at all. You probably 269 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,600 Speaker 1: before that didn't even know his origin story if you 270 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: weren't a mega comic book fan. But now what John 271 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 1: Burenthal and his series that first came out on netfl 272 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: which was darker and grittier, he is now that character. 273 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 1: There are very few people in the MCU that cannot 274 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: be recast. I think John Bernenthal as Punisher is one 275 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 1: of them. Obviously Robert Downey Junior as iron Man, and 276 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: the third would have to be Hugh Jackman as Spider Man. Well, 277 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,440 Speaker 1: even though Thomas Jane did play the Punisher in two 278 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 1: thousand and four, so there has been two Punishers at 279 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 1: least on screen. But John Burenthal hasn't been in a 280 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 1: movie as the Punisher yet. And now the plot of 281 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,920 Speaker 1: Brand New Day is still pretty much a known but 282 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: No Way Home ended on a cliffhanger, and now Spider 283 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 1: Man is dealing with a lot of things and this 284 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,840 Speaker 1: is gonna be the first time any actor who has 285 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: played Spider Man is getting a fourth film. Even though 286 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: Toby maguire was supposed to get a fourth film it 287 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 1: was on Sody's slate. There's an old tweet that resurfaces 288 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 1: about once a year of them announcing Spider Man for 289 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 1: and that never came to be. So I have to 290 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 1: imagine that this is going to be it for Tom Holland. 291 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 1: I don't know so far. He's not attached to any 292 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:12,679 Speaker 1: of the Avengers movies coming out, but that could happen later. 293 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 1: Whenever they did the chair reveal, I believe his name 294 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 1: was not on any of those chairs of the cast 295 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 1: announced for those movies. So not a whole lot of 296 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: details on the plot. We know John Burnhalt is going 297 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 1: to be a part of it. We know Sadie Sink 298 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: is going to be a part of it, which at 299 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 1: the time of recording this, her role in that movie 300 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: has still not been released. Is she gonna be a 301 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: Gwen Stacy? Is she gonna be a villain? How is 302 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 1: she going to fit into the storyline? The movie has 303 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: a fantastic cast, and my hopes for this movie. We've 304 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 1: had one, two, and three in this series that have 305 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 1: been so attached to what is going on in the MCU. 306 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 1: I want this one to be completely separate. And when 307 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 1: I look at my favorite characters in the MCU and 308 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 1: the stories, I gravitate towards more. They are the darker, 309 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 1: street level superheroes, and we had that in this last 310 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: season of Daredevil Born Again. I think you have to 311 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 1: bring in Charlie Cox in this in some way. If 312 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: you have Punisher there, you gotta have Daredevil two. And 313 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 1: I think that is a fantastic theme. I think Spider 314 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: Man needs to go back to fighting crime in New 315 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: York City. If they could take the tone and style 316 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 1: of Daredevil and push it into the world of Spider Man, 317 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 1: I think that would be amazing. Some people are even 318 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: speculating that Spider Man for is going to be R rated. 319 00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 1: I don't think that's going to be the case, just 320 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 1: because the character of Spider Man has such a wide 321 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,400 Speaker 1: appeal as a lot of young fans, I think by 322 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 1: making it R rated, you're probably going to alienate a 323 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: big portion of the audience. And I just don't think 324 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 1: an R rated movie is in Spider Man's DNA. But 325 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,600 Speaker 1: me selfishly, as an adult, I would love to see 326 00:15:56,640 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: that to see bloodshed in a Spider Man movie, I 327 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 1: think would be amazing. So I'm curious to see how 328 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 1: The Punisher is going to fit into the story. I 329 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 1: can't imagine Frank Castle liking Spider Man because him and 330 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 1: daredeb will barely get along. They kind of like each other. 331 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: They work together, but ultimately their egos just don't work 332 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 1: well together where they can be friends in some situations, 333 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 1: but he's also an anti hero, so they're not always 334 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 1: eye to eye. I look at Frank Castle and I 335 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 1: look at Peter Parker, and I see two people who 336 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: are not going to get along. So I have to 337 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,800 Speaker 1: imagine he's gonna be kind of a villain in the story, 338 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 1: an anti hero at least where he might help Spider 339 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 1: Man out a little bit. But could you imagine the 340 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 1: Punisher going toe to toe with Spider Man. I can't 341 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 1: wait to see it again. It's not coming out till 342 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 1: July thirty first, twenty twenty six. Myself, I kind of 343 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: forget what year it is. We are in twenty twenty five. 344 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 1: I was like, I don't want to have to wait 345 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: two years for another Spider Man movie. But next year, hopefully, 346 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 1: Although I have to imagine just the way things have 347 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 1: gone for me when it comes to movies being released, 348 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:06,880 Speaker 1: it's gonna get pushed. So in my head, it's coming 349 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,399 Speaker 1: out not in the summer, but they're gonna push it, 350 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:13,040 Speaker 1: probably to fall an inevitably winter. It's inevitably to me. 351 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:17,360 Speaker 1: I'm placing it as another December release for Spider Man. 352 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,159 Speaker 1: But yeah, no way, this movie is gonna be R rated. 353 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 1: Next up in movie news as story number two of three, 354 00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 1: Ryan Kugler Sinner starring Michael B. Jordan, is coming out 355 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:32,919 Speaker 1: on Max this Friday, July fourth. What says America in 356 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 1: freedom like Sinners and Vampires and one of the most 357 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: I don't think it's an unexpected hit of the year 358 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:45,320 Speaker 1: because Ryan Kugler is such a just renowned director, But 359 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 1: I don't think people expected it to do as well 360 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:52,159 Speaker 1: as it did because Sinners has now become one of 361 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 1: the top ten highest grossing R rated horror films of 362 00:17:56,640 --> 00:18:01,239 Speaker 1: all time Domestically, this movie has been a force to 363 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,439 Speaker 1: be reckoned with. And I knew I was gonna like 364 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:05,359 Speaker 1: it just because it's Ryan Coogler and I am just 365 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,359 Speaker 1: instantly drawn to his work. I would probably put him. 366 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 1: I don't know if my top five directors right now, 367 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: but easily top ten. I think with Sinners, he probably 368 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 1: squeaks into my top five now. But this is a 369 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:22,879 Speaker 1: movie I would say, if you haven't seen an original 370 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 1: movie in a while, and maybe you are on the 371 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,880 Speaker 1: fence of wanting to go see it in theaters, well 372 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,720 Speaker 1: now's your chance. Even though MAX is one of the 373 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: most expensive of the streaming services, I think the quality 374 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,439 Speaker 1: is always there. So if you already have MAX, it 375 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:39,920 Speaker 1: is a no brainer. Give it a watch this weekend 376 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: or the next coming weeks. I think you will enjoy it. 377 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,640 Speaker 1: Even if you're not super into horror films but can 378 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 1: handle a little bit of blood, a little bit of violence, 379 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,160 Speaker 1: and just want to see a really great original story. 380 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,520 Speaker 1: I say check out Sinners. But even if you don't 381 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:57,359 Speaker 1: have MAX, it is one of the more expensive streaming services, 382 00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,400 Speaker 1: but I think the quality is there as far as 383 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 1: just for movies with new original movies that come out 384 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 1: in theaters. But speaking of original movies, in my final 385 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 1: story in Movie News, Dakota Johnson says that Hollywood is 386 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 1: a mess right now because studios just want to keep 387 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:18,359 Speaker 1: remaking the same thing. And I quote she says, when 388 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,399 Speaker 1: something does well, studios want to keep that going, so 389 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 1: they remake the same things, but humans don't want that. 390 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 1: She was out doing interviews for Material List, and she 391 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 1: basically said that Hollywood is a bit of a mess. 392 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:33,880 Speaker 1: She went on to say, I think it's hard when 393 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 1: creative decisions are made by a committee, and it's hard 394 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 1: when creative decisions are made by people who don't really 395 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: watch movies or know anything about them. And that tends 396 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 1: to be what is occurring a lot. That is a 397 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: spicy take there, Dakota Johnson essentially saying the people making 398 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:55,879 Speaker 1: these decisions don't care about art, don't care about creativity. 399 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 1: They just see numbers, they see risks. And I can 400 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 1: see that to a degree because it is the movie business. 401 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:08,439 Speaker 1: It is an industry that needs profits to continue. And 402 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 1: if you look at a movie just by the numbers, 403 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:15,640 Speaker 1: you start thinking in a way that is so analytical 404 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 1: that takes all the heart out of it. And this 405 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,439 Speaker 1: is in response to in recent years Hollywood, just in 406 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:24,239 Speaker 1: the last five years specifically, which you could say this 407 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 1: has gone on for more than five years, they have 408 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:30,159 Speaker 1: entered into an ip frenzy. And why do they do that. 409 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,440 Speaker 1: It's because those movies are easier to market, and marketing 410 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 1: is expensive. So if you make a movie about something 411 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: that already has a built in audience, it's gonna be 412 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 1: easier to make. It's gonna be easier to get that 413 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,040 Speaker 1: McDonald's happy Meal deal. It's gonna be easier to get 414 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:49,919 Speaker 1: a Crispy Kreme donut collab. It's gonna be easier to 415 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 1: get a Cup at seven to eleven to promote that movie. 416 00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 1: So it comes down to it being easier to market 417 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 1: a minecraft movie than it is. The movie we were 418 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 1: just about. Sinner Sinners didn't have any fancy collabse. You 419 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:07,480 Speaker 1: couldn't go get the Sinner's Meals somewhere. You also didn't 420 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:10,679 Speaker 1: really have that movie shoved in your face every single 421 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,920 Speaker 1: time you turned on a screen or were scrolling through 422 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:17,159 Speaker 1: your phone. But that movie has been so impactful, and 423 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 1: I'm so glad it has done so well because hopefully 424 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 1: that's getting through to some people saying we can make 425 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:28,679 Speaker 1: movies on original stories. We just have to find really 426 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,639 Speaker 1: great directors like Ryan Coogler, which are like one in 427 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:34,520 Speaker 1: a million sometimes. And also speaking on that recently, it 428 00:21:34,520 --> 00:21:38,160 Speaker 1: was Amanda Seifred who kind of talked smack about Hollywood too, 429 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 1: and their addiction to sequels, which she said, it's not 430 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,680 Speaker 1: very brave to do sequels. It's just for money and 431 00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:47,919 Speaker 1: it's frustrating, which is interesting for her to say, and 432 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 1: I know where the sentiment is. But if you look 433 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 1: at her career, she was in Mom and Mia, Here 434 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:56,879 Speaker 1: we Go Again, she was in Ted two. She's also 435 00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: currently in talks to make a Jennifer's Bar, so her 436 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:07,160 Speaker 1: career has benefited from some sequels. She even poked fun 437 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,720 Speaker 1: at some of the movies coming out this summer, calling 438 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 1: them Fantastic super Park, four Super Parks, four Dinosaurs, four 439 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 1: Super Dinosaurs. I don't know, she said, I will say 440 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 1: there is a little bit of fatigue with sequels. I 441 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:24,399 Speaker 1: want original content. I think it's really scary and brave 442 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 1: to do it. It's not scary and brave to do 443 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 1: the sequels. It's just for money and it's frustrating. Then again, 444 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: I do Mama Mia three in a heartbeat. I feel 445 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 1: a little bit like that takes away from the impact 446 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 1: of what she is saying, because she just contradicted herself 447 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,960 Speaker 1: and made the point for the other side of the argument, saying, 448 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,120 Speaker 1: I'm so tired of sequels. I want to see something new. 449 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,199 Speaker 1: But if you're gonna throw a pile of cash on 450 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: my table, I'm gonna take it to do another Mama 451 00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 1: Mia three. That also just adds to the point of 452 00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 1: actors just need to work and they wanted take movies 453 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 1: that are gonna be good for their career, that are 454 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 1: gonna make them money. I think sometimes too, we think 455 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:10,399 Speaker 1: that every actor is just a crazy millionaire, and that 456 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 1: is not the case when you look at the breakdown 457 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:17,160 Speaker 1: of who they have to pay, how much they actually 458 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:20,160 Speaker 1: take away from a role like a MoMA Mea three. 459 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 1: They have to keep working. So it'd be easy to 460 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:27,679 Speaker 1: say I only want to do new, original movies for 461 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:29,640 Speaker 1: the rest of my career, but also when you start 462 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 1: to look at the numbers, you have to do what 463 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 1: is smart for you. So again, it is a business. 464 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 1: And as much as I want to romanticize my love 465 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 1: of film and say that everything should be new and fresh, 466 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 1: I also think about the people who I've learned from 467 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 1: doing this podcast, maybe only go to the movies once 468 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,479 Speaker 1: or twice a year. And I think to those people 469 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:52,320 Speaker 1: who aren't as tuned in as some of us here 470 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:55,399 Speaker 1: who listen to this podcast, you see the movies that 471 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 1: are fed to you, that are shown to you through 472 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: commercials and ads on the radio and social media. And 473 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 1: it is those movies with the big ip that are 474 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 1: gonna be pushed down your throat the most. And I 475 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,760 Speaker 1: can see where that sentiment comes of, oh, everything is 476 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:14,640 Speaker 1: just a sequel to remake, because they're trying to get 477 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: to you. They're trying to get to the people who 478 00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 1: do know those originals, who have a relationship with them, 479 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 1: and that is gonna be what you're fed. You're not 480 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:24,439 Speaker 1: seeing the movies going under the radar. You're not getting 481 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: the Ballot of Wallace Island. You're getting less of the 482 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 1: new Wes Anderson film thrown at you and more of 483 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 1: whatever the Rock is remaking at the moment. So while myself, 484 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,440 Speaker 1: I do want fresh stories, I do want creative freedom, 485 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 1: I do want to have new experiences in the theater. 486 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 1: I also see a movie like Elio come out that 487 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:47,119 Speaker 1: is providing that, even though I don't think what happened 488 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 1: with that movie is all due to the fact that 489 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 1: people don't want to support new original movies. I think 490 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 1: Pixar needs a little bit of a refresh when it 491 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:58,720 Speaker 1: comes to their character design, their storytelling. I ultimately think 492 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:00,919 Speaker 1: that is what is going on there right now. But 493 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,800 Speaker 1: also with Elio, I remember seeing the poster and the 494 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 1: quick teaser probably a year ago, and then didn't hear 495 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 1: that much about it until maybe a week before its release. 496 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: So to some people, that movie just came out of nowhere. 497 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 1: So again it comes down to them not putting the 498 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: money in the marketing. And when we talk about remakes 499 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: versus new original content, I really think we're really arguing 500 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: hardcore fans versus more casual fans. Hardcore fans are always 501 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 1: gonna want the new, fresh thing that's not attached to 502 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,040 Speaker 1: any ip even though me like I would consider myself 503 00:25:36,040 --> 00:25:39,679 Speaker 1: a hardcore fan, but I also have an attachment to 504 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 1: a lot of franchises, and I don't mind sequels and 505 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 1: remakes all the time because I still get really excited 506 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:48,120 Speaker 1: for those. And then to a more casual person, they 507 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 1: want to go see something that feels familiar, and that 508 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 1: is why those movies end up in the top five 509 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 1: grossing movies of the year every single year. So maybe 510 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:58,360 Speaker 1: it's just a chicken or the egg situation. All right, Well, 511 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,120 Speaker 1: come back and I'll give my spoiler free review of 512 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:07,720 Speaker 1: twenty eight years later. Speaking of franchises, two words to 513 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 1: describe twenty eight years later butt drenching. This is my 514 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 1: spoiler free review of twenty eight years later. Why do 515 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 1: I call it butt drenching Because I had so much 516 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:20,040 Speaker 1: anxiety watching this movie. It built up so much tension 517 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: that I was sweating from the top of my head 518 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 1: all the way profusely down my body and left my 519 00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 1: seat soaked metaphorically, because this was unlike the two previous 520 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: entries in twenty eight years later, much more sophisticated. Even 521 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 1: when the trailer dropped earlier this year, I declared it 522 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:45,679 Speaker 1: Trailer of the Year because just the visuals, the sound, 523 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 1: and the trailer alone, I knew I was in for 524 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 1: something special. And I think because I have such an 525 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: attachment to this franchise, because how groundbreaking it was when 526 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:59,160 Speaker 1: it came out. Because if you look at history now, 527 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 1: you think, oh, we've had zombie movies since seventies eighties, 528 00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 1: talking about Romero and all of the greats who have 529 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,640 Speaker 1: handled the genre and really made it what it is. 530 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 1: But when twenty eight Days Later came out and where 531 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 1: it started, where you had this group of scientists working 532 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 1: on chimps, chimps went crazy, killed some people. They throw 533 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 1: up blood on other people, and that's how it spreads. 534 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 1: And what made those movies different is the zombies weren't 535 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:30,399 Speaker 1: your typical walking around brain zombies. They were rage filled 536 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 1: because that's what it was, the rage virus, and they 537 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:35,440 Speaker 1: would go around mashing people's faces, throwing up on them, 538 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 1: and they'd infect another person, and they ran quickly, and 539 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 1: that was something at the time we hadn't really seen before. 540 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:45,239 Speaker 1: Some would argue somebody else did it before, but that 541 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:48,119 Speaker 1: was groundbreaking to see a zombie not moving slowly, but 542 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 1: to be able to chase you down, to turn you 543 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 1: into a zombie. And it's not even like your traditional 544 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 1: zombie because they don't act the same way. They are quicker, faster, 545 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 1: and smarter. And that was even back in twenty eight 546 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 1: days later, which the first one takes place in two 547 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 1: thousand and six, twenty eight weeks later took place in 548 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 1: two thousand and seven, and now with twenty eight years later, 549 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:10,679 Speaker 1: we are looking at twenty thirty five. The zombies have 550 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:14,880 Speaker 1: now mutated again, where you have these alphas that are 551 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 1: even bigger and stronger and faster and smarter and are 552 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:22,159 Speaker 1: so sinister like, and what this movie focuses on is 553 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 1: you have a group of people who have moved out 554 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 1: to this small island where for the most part, they 555 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: are protected and they are connected to the mainland through 556 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 1: this little strip of land that when the tide is low, 557 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,679 Speaker 1: they are able to walk from their island to the 558 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 1: mainland to go and find you know, wood to burn fires, food, hunt, 559 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 1: and also kill some of the rage filled people who 560 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 1: are living on that island as well. And that is 561 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 1: how they get by because they go, bring their supplies, 562 00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 1: come back, and they are able to guard their community 563 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 1: on this island by keeping that border secure. The dad 564 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 1: is played by Aaron Taylor Johnson, who I think is 565 00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: a really good actor. He was a great and no swarato. 566 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 1: Was he the best in Craven the Hunter. No, But 567 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 1: that wasn't really his fault. I think he did what 568 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 1: he was supposed to do. That was just a bad 569 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 1: movie all the way around, and he probably saw that 570 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 1: as Hey, I'm finally getting a leading role in a 571 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,719 Speaker 1: movie here, I'm gonna take it, much like Dakota Johnson 572 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:17,440 Speaker 1: probably did with Madame Webb. Alfie Williams plays his son Spike, 573 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:20,040 Speaker 1: which I think it is really his movie. If you 574 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 1: look at twenty eight years later, it is really a 575 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: coming of age story because he plays a twelve year 576 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:28,720 Speaker 1: old kid who he's at that age where he's still 577 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 1: a little bit too young to go venture to this 578 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 1: island to kill the infected, but his dad thinks he's ready. 579 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 1: He's really pushing him. He wants them to be what 580 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 1: essentially he is, be the hero of the town, and 581 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 1: this kid is scared. This kid is not ready for it. 582 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 1: And it starts with their journey into the mainland for 583 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 1: his son to get his first kill, and it's really 584 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 1: focusing on him developing as a human, where I haven't 585 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 1: really seen that in a zombie movie. And I think 586 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 1: the fact that it takes place in twenty thirty five, 587 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 1: so long after the outbreak, is what makes this really 588 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: impactful and what really sets itself apart, because you start 589 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 1: to think, like, how really would this change humanity? How 590 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 1: would us as people adapt to this? You kind of 591 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 1: revert back to the very early days of just building 592 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 1: a society of you have people in these roles. You 593 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 1: have hunters, you have gatherers, you have fishermen, all these 594 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:24,000 Speaker 1: really essential roles. And something that was stated in the 595 00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 1: very first twenty eight Days Later movie was really impactful 596 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 1: to me, and I rewatched both of the movies leading 597 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:30,920 Speaker 1: up to this to get me in that mindset, and 598 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 1: I got really hype going into this one. But there's 599 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: a line in the first movie where they talk about 600 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 1: how are we going to build a world back after this, 601 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:42,960 Speaker 1: Like how far away are we to getting things back 602 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 1: to how they were? And somebody makes the point of 603 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 1: humans have only existed on this planet for a very 604 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:51,720 Speaker 1: very small time, and I think I looked it up, 605 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,520 Speaker 1: and the world's billions and billions of years old, and 606 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:57,520 Speaker 1: the amount of times that humans have been here is 607 00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 1: like point zero five percent of the lifespan of the Earth. 608 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 1: And in that first movie they say, well, really, if 609 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 1: things were going back to normal, it would be us 610 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 1: being gone from this planet for how little we have 611 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 1: been here, And that stuck with me because in that 612 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:16,480 Speaker 1: movie they're just trying to get back to the way 613 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 1: things were before the outbreak, get electricity back, get humans 614 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 1: just back living normal daily lives. And when you think 615 00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 1: about it, really having all those things taken away from 616 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 1: us and the Earth just being this place filled with 617 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 1: nature and some other life form inhabiting it that can 618 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:38,160 Speaker 1: survive like that would be the Earth reverting back to normal. 619 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,720 Speaker 1: And this movie is kind of going back to the 620 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 1: very early stages of humanity where it almost feels like 621 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 1: it takes place way back in the day, but really 622 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,680 Speaker 1: it's twenty thirty five. We would have to go back 623 00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 1: and literally start all the way over. And I think 624 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 1: in doing that and how this movie starts to set 625 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 1: this whole new stage, which it like a totally fresh chapter. 626 00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 1: And the thing about twenty eight years later is even 627 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 1: if you didn't watch the first one, didn't watch the 628 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 1: second one, which is also fantastic, which is also fantastic, 629 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 1: It has Jeremy Renner in one of his best roles 630 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:15,080 Speaker 1: that kind of goes unnoticed. Sometimes you have rose Byrn 631 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 1: in there as well, and that one's about asymptomatic survivor 632 00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:20,760 Speaker 1: and their kids who try to get saved by Rose 633 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,520 Speaker 1: Byrn and Jeremy Renner. But even if you hadn't seen 634 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 1: part one or Part two, you could just watch this 635 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:29,560 Speaker 1: one and those other two now kind of service prequels, 636 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 1: because I think they're resetting this entire world, and the 637 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 1: new franchise kind of starts here again because you have 638 00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 1: director Danny boyleback, you have writer Alex Garland back, who 639 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 1: did not write or direct the second one. But this 640 00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 1: is kind of the new starting point where they're gonna 641 00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 1: make more movies. I hope they bring back a lot 642 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 1: of these people because I really got invested in these characters. 643 00:32:50,840 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 1: Ray Fines is just incredible to have an actor who 644 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 1: is so next level to be in a movie like this. 645 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 1: It made it one of the most beautiful horror movies 646 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 1: I've ever seen, because just watching it was a visual 647 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 1: treat where you see this movie filmed on location, this 648 00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:13,560 Speaker 1: beautiful countryside, and then these really vicious and heinous things happening, 649 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 1: and there's this big juxtaposition of like, look how beautiful 650 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:19,600 Speaker 1: the scenery is. Look how beautiful of the beach and 651 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 1: the water is. But then you have this alpha running 652 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 1: at full speed wanting to eat your brains out, especially 653 00:33:26,280 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 1: early on in the movie where when they're first walking 654 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 1: to that mainland, it's almost like this witch enticing you 655 00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 1: with a spell to bring you in. And if you 656 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 1: watch just the trailer alone, you might have heard this 657 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 1: poem that's being spoken over it that's just so haunting 658 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:53,200 Speaker 1: and sinister. It's a poem called Boots, which was all 659 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 1: about British infantrymen, where it's this really repetitive sound and 660 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:58,920 Speaker 1: you hear the boots marching, and then it gets a 661 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 1: little bit more intense, a little bit more intense, a 662 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:03,920 Speaker 1: little bit louder now, a little bit louder now, and 663 00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 1: then it is just all out freaky as crap. That 664 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 1: is how the first act of this movie just kind 665 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 1: of entices you and brings you into it, and it 666 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 1: makes you feel this terror that you don't really know 667 00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:19,360 Speaker 1: where it's coming from, because overall this movie is less violent. 668 00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 1: I would say the thing that I didn't like about it, 669 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: if there was one thing, is I wanted there to 670 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,680 Speaker 1: be more action. But that was only because I was 671 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 1: basically it on the first two movies. If I'd only 672 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:31,920 Speaker 1: watched this movie and I hadn't watched the other two, 673 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 1: I would think it's a perfect movie. But I think 674 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,839 Speaker 1: how it fits in the franchise, knowing that the first 675 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,319 Speaker 1: two are just more action filled. The first one is 676 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 1: essentially a road trip movie where they go and try 677 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:44,400 Speaker 1: to find this military base after hearing a message with 678 00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,600 Speaker 1: just the hope of finding somebody who has a cure, 679 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:51,280 Speaker 1: and then in the second one, where the outbreak happens again, 680 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 1: where they think they're safe and then they're on the 681 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 1: run again. You're not really on the run in this movie, 682 00:34:56,520 --> 00:35:00,160 Speaker 1: so it's not so much about trying to escape and 683 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,839 Speaker 1: away from all of the infected. It's just how are 684 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 1: you going to exist in this world now? So overall, 685 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 1: the story just doesn't have that same level of action 686 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 1: that I feel like the twenty eight franchise has kind 687 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:14,879 Speaker 1: of branded itself with. But it's evolved so much where 688 00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:18,239 Speaker 1: it's taking on something maybe not entirely new, but it's 689 00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 1: not just one of the best horror films of the year. 690 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,719 Speaker 1: It is just one of the best films and it's 691 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:25,760 Speaker 1: really starting to set itself apart. Now, would a horror 692 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 1: movie like this ever be nominated for Best Picture? No, 693 00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 1: And that is a travesty because it is that good. 694 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:34,040 Speaker 1: Just because it's a part of a franchise, just because 695 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 1: it's coming out in the summer, and because it's going 696 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:39,800 Speaker 1: to be successful, it doesn't really check all the boxes 697 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,319 Speaker 1: of oh, this could be nominated for Best Picture. Ray 698 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:46,000 Speaker 1: find should be nominated for Best Supporting Actor. He just 699 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 1: should because he is that good of an actor and 700 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:51,239 Speaker 1: is that impactful in this movie that it takes it 701 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 1: next level. This was one of the rare movies that 702 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 1: I've seen this year that left me wanting more. Where 703 00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 1: I knew it was starting to get to the final act, 704 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:00,520 Speaker 1: I knew it was about an end, and I thought, 705 00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 1: I just need to see more. It is a great reset. 706 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:06,759 Speaker 1: Also just a great introduction if you hadn't seen any 707 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,040 Speaker 1: of these movies, which is a really rare thing. In 708 00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 1: part three, normally it's so attached to what has come 709 00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 1: before it, but for it being what I would consider 710 00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:18,319 Speaker 1: to be the first zombie coming of age movie, for 711 00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:21,760 Speaker 1: it not only having great visuals but also great sound design. 712 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:23,880 Speaker 1: I just want to pull the sound file from this 713 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 1: movie and drive around in my car and listen to 714 00:36:26,600 --> 00:36:29,400 Speaker 1: it like a podcast, because I think just the sound 715 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:33,840 Speaker 1: is terrifying in itself. And I've listened to some horror podcasts, 716 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:35,719 Speaker 1: and I think you could pull the audio from this 717 00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 1: and also make a horror podcast like that. I also 718 00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:41,280 Speaker 1: just love anything that's filmed on location. I'm a sucker 719 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:44,080 Speaker 1: for the countryside at dawn and dusk in a movie. 720 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 1: I just think that is the best time of day 721 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:47,640 Speaker 1: to film a movie like this. So for twenty eight 722 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:50,400 Speaker 1: years later. I give it a four point five out 723 00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 1: of five rage viruses, and that is exactly what I 724 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 1: would rate. Probably all the movies in this franchise, Part one, 725 00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,720 Speaker 1: Part two, and now Part three are all four point 726 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:01,200 Speaker 1: five at of fives. 727 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:08,239 Speaker 2: It's time to head down to movie Mike Traylor Paul. 728 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 1: In this year is edition of an actor going for 729 00:37:11,719 --> 00:37:14,680 Speaker 1: an oscar by playing a musician in a biopick. We 730 00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:17,800 Speaker 1: have Jeremy Allen White who will play the boss Bruce 731 00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:22,520 Speaker 1: Springsteen and deliver me from Nowhere. It is not a 732 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:25,839 Speaker 1: complete biopick, which I like. We saw this last year 733 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 1: with Timothy Shallo May playing Bob Dylan, and that was 734 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:33,880 Speaker 1: just a small portion of his life based on a book, 735 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,560 Speaker 1: and we kind of have the same deal here. The 736 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 1: movie is about the making of his nineteen eighty two 737 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:43,160 Speaker 1: album Nebraska. It is also based on a book. And 738 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,320 Speaker 1: the reason I like it when they decide to focus 739 00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,799 Speaker 1: on a small part of their life that is very 740 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:52,399 Speaker 1: significant is because a music biopick is a big thing 741 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:56,600 Speaker 1: to take on, and oftentimes directors and writers bite off 742 00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:58,720 Speaker 1: more than they can chew because you have these really 743 00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:03,239 Speaker 1: iconic people from musicians we've seen have biopics recently, from 744 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 1: Queen to Bob Dylan to Bob Marley to Amy Winehouse. 745 00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 1: The list goes on and on, and they do these 746 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:14,879 Speaker 1: so frequently because when you think about making movies with IP, 747 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:17,480 Speaker 1: you think about Fast and the Furious, you think about 748 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 1: Jurassic Park, you think about the mcu well. Musicians and 749 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,480 Speaker 1: famous people are kind of like that because you put 750 00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:27,320 Speaker 1: this movie out and people know and love them. Therefore 751 00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:29,560 Speaker 1: they're already attached to it, and you have a built 752 00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:32,440 Speaker 1: in audience. So it's a different form of IP. I feel. 753 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:35,080 Speaker 1: But when you try to make a movie about somebody's 754 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:37,840 Speaker 1: entire life, it is way too much to cram into 755 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:41,400 Speaker 1: a two, sometimes two and a half sometimes three hour movie. 756 00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:44,360 Speaker 1: So I instead like it when they focus on this 757 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 1: small little segment of their life to really represent these 758 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:50,799 Speaker 1: people at a very pivotal point in their career, which 759 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 1: we saw with The Complete Unknown last year, and which 760 00:38:53,560 --> 00:38:56,400 Speaker 1: is what we're gonna see with Bruce Springsteen here, because 761 00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 1: it's after he's had some major success, it's before he 762 00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:01,920 Speaker 1: has an even bigger success. Because if you look at 763 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,839 Speaker 1: his albums, the one I know primarily is Born to Run, 764 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:07,840 Speaker 1: which came out in nineteen seventy five. This one is 765 00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:10,880 Speaker 1: about Nebraska, which came out in nineteen eighty two, and 766 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 1: Born in the USA was the follow up from that, 767 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 1: which came out in nineteen eighty four. So you're getting 768 00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:19,400 Speaker 1: mostly young Bruce here. Alongside Jeremy Ellen White as Bruce Springsteen, 769 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:23,240 Speaker 1: you also have Jeremy Strong from Succession playing his manager, 770 00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,960 Speaker 1: Steven Graham, who will play his dad. Paul Walter Hausa, 771 00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:30,520 Speaker 1: who I really enjoy as an actor. You might remember 772 00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:32,680 Speaker 1: him as Richard Jewel. He's also done a lot of 773 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:36,400 Speaker 1: stuff recently, like Cruella. He's also going to be Chris 774 00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:40,360 Speaker 1: Farley in the upcoming bio Pick. He plays his recording engineer. 775 00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:43,560 Speaker 1: The movie is coming out in theaters on October twenty fourth. 776 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:45,920 Speaker 1: Before we talk more about this movie, here's just a 777 00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:48,160 Speaker 1: little bit of the Deliver Me from Nowhere trailer. 778 00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:50,719 Speaker 3: So three oh five v eight never owned a new 779 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:55,040 Speaker 3: car before. It's awfully fitting for handsome devil rock style. 780 00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:57,160 Speaker 4: I do know who you are. 781 00:39:58,239 --> 00:39:59,120 Speaker 1: Well, that makes one of. 782 00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:03,120 Speaker 3: Us and boss, can you do Mike Chuck? 783 00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:09,879 Speaker 1: That's trolling out. 784 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:13,480 Speaker 4: Here's what I want you to understand. This is not 785 00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:17,320 Speaker 4: about either one of us. This is not about the charts. 786 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:22,120 Speaker 4: This is about Bruce Springsteen. 787 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:26,480 Speaker 1: A lot too Unpacking this trailer. The only thing I 788 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:29,160 Speaker 1: fear so far is that it looks a little bit 789 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:32,239 Speaker 1: and sounds a little bit too over dramatic. You hear 790 00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:35,399 Speaker 1: it there where you see Bruce Springsteen going to buy 791 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:38,520 Speaker 1: his first new car. He's talking to the salesman and 792 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:41,080 Speaker 1: he's like, uh, maybe you know better than me. It 793 00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:44,279 Speaker 1: just feels very like this forced epic noss that you 794 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:47,600 Speaker 1: always find in music biopics that I just I can't 795 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:50,520 Speaker 1: stand it because they're trying to make all these little 796 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:54,319 Speaker 1: details about them, and these little actions throughout their lives 797 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 1: seem so significant and so impactful, where maybe this was 798 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:01,440 Speaker 1: a big thing. It's like buying this car and then 799 00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:04,239 Speaker 1: him struggling with the idea of knowing himself and not 800 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:08,759 Speaker 1: knowing himself. It just feels overly dramatic, a little mellow dramatic, 801 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:12,359 Speaker 1: and it always just comes across as them trying too hard. 802 00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:15,080 Speaker 1: But I think that is just the nature of a 803 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:17,960 Speaker 1: music biopick. They all do it. But I hope through 804 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:21,719 Speaker 1: his performance through the entire movie that I'm not focused 805 00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:24,960 Speaker 1: on those little moments entirely. That's probably just what they 806 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,000 Speaker 1: decided to put in the trailer, and hopefully there's more 807 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:28,920 Speaker 1: to it than that, because if it's that level of 808 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 1: acting and that level of this is so important and significant. 809 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 1: Right now we're talking about the boss here, I think 810 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:39,360 Speaker 1: we're gonna have a bad time. What excites me about 811 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:44,360 Speaker 1: this movie is possibly what is deterring some people from 812 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 1: really buying into it, is the fact that Jeremy Allen 813 00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:50,919 Speaker 1: White doesn't look like Bruce Springsteen. He just doesn't look 814 00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:54,160 Speaker 1: like him. If you just showed me this trailer and 815 00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:56,200 Speaker 1: you took out his name and you took out the music, 816 00:41:56,800 --> 00:42:00,960 Speaker 1: I would not know what musical figure he is portraying 817 00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:04,560 Speaker 1: up until about the last thirty seconds when he's actually 818 00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:07,000 Speaker 1: on stage and you kind of see some of his 819 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:10,360 Speaker 1: stage mannerisms, which I think he has really great stage presence. 820 00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:15,240 Speaker 1: And Jeremy Allen White was hands selected by Bruce Springsteen himself. 821 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:18,360 Speaker 1: He said, I like this guy. He studied all of 822 00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:21,520 Speaker 1: Jeremy Allen White's work, probably watched a lot of Bear, 823 00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:24,600 Speaker 1: maybe some Shameless back in the day. Maybe he's seen 824 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:27,800 Speaker 1: some of his most recent movies, like The Ironclaw, which 825 00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:31,560 Speaker 1: I'm getting pretty big iron Claw vibes from this trailer, 826 00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:33,319 Speaker 1: which I really enjoy. I don't know if that's just 827 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:35,879 Speaker 1: the Jeremy Allen White thing. I'm into that. And if 828 00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:39,279 Speaker 1: Bruce Springsteen himself said I want this guy to play me, 829 00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:42,440 Speaker 1: that tells me that he probably sees a little bit 830 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:45,759 Speaker 1: of himself in Jeremy Allen White. He thinks it's the 831 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 1: right decision. And I don't always think that the person 832 00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 1: has to look exactly like who they are portraying. I 833 00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:55,520 Speaker 1: care more about their acting abilities. Can they portray these emotions? 834 00:42:55,560 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 1: Can they really fit into this character and make me 835 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:02,040 Speaker 1: believe their story? That is more important to me. If 836 00:43:02,200 --> 00:43:05,120 Speaker 1: I look back on some of my favorite music biopics, 837 00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:08,160 Speaker 1: it's not the people who look exactly like them. It's 838 00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 1: movies like Walk the Line with Joaquin Phoenix as Johnny Cash. 839 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:14,239 Speaker 1: Does he look entirely like Johnny Cash? No, I don't 840 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,759 Speaker 1: think so at all. If you get too focused on 841 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:19,239 Speaker 1: the way that they look, you're going to miss the 842 00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:22,720 Speaker 1: big picture here and not find somebody who can actually 843 00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:26,280 Speaker 1: portray them. Sometimes you do get the best of both worlds, 844 00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:30,360 Speaker 1: like in Bohemian Rhapsody, wherever Remy Malik had the teeth 845 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 1: put into his mouth to look like Freddie Mercury, which 846 00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:37,520 Speaker 1: for that movie they did use some of Ramy Mallik's voice. 847 00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:41,680 Speaker 1: They also used old recordings and original recordings from Freddie Mercury, 848 00:43:42,080 --> 00:43:45,680 Speaker 1: and the person who supplemented all the other parts was 849 00:43:45,719 --> 00:43:49,160 Speaker 1: a guy named Mark Mattel, who just sounds exactly like 850 00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:52,440 Speaker 1: Freddy Mercury. So I'm not entirely sure how much of 851 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:55,319 Speaker 1: Remy Mallick's voice they actually use. It could have been 852 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:58,400 Speaker 1: like a few words, a few little portions that they 853 00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:00,560 Speaker 1: put in there just so they could say, oh, you 854 00:44:00,600 --> 00:44:03,840 Speaker 1: actually hear some of his voice in this movie. But 855 00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:07,040 Speaker 1: not the case with the Bruce Springsteen movie, because Jeremy 856 00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:10,840 Speaker 1: Allen White says, that's me, I'm singing in this movie. 857 00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:13,600 Speaker 1: Here's the interview he did earlier this year with et. 858 00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 2: I'm done singing all the movie songs or I sang 859 00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 2: everything everything's in the movie. 860 00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:22,920 Speaker 1: It's done. No more prep, no more vocal lessons. I 861 00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:26,120 Speaker 1: did it. So that is exciting to me, although I'm 862 00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:29,879 Speaker 1: not the biggest Bruce Springsteen fan, and maybe the same 863 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:32,880 Speaker 1: thing will happen with me. After I watched Bohemian Rhapsody, 864 00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 1: as I was so inspired by that movie, I went 865 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:37,520 Speaker 1: back and discovered their music. And now I wouldn't call 866 00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:40,160 Speaker 1: myself a Queen fan. Before a brief period of time 867 00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:42,000 Speaker 1: when that movie came out, I did listen to a 868 00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 1: lot of Queen. My Bruce Springsteen knowledge of his music 869 00:44:46,239 --> 00:44:48,680 Speaker 1: is really basic. If I made a top three Bruce 870 00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:52,239 Speaker 1: Springsteen songs of mine, it's so basic, I'm almost embarrassed 871 00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:55,880 Speaker 1: to admit it, because they're probably everybody's favorite Bruce Springsteen 872 00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:58,959 Speaker 1: songs at three, Dancing in the Dark, at two Born 873 00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:01,600 Speaker 1: in the USA, and at one Board to Run, which 874 00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 1: is actually a song I will seek out to listen 875 00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:07,520 Speaker 1: to oftentimes. When I'm sitting here in the studio editing stuff, 876 00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:11,000 Speaker 1: working on other projects or other work, I always have 877 00:45:11,160 --> 00:45:13,640 Speaker 1: music playing, and that is a song I go to 878 00:45:13,719 --> 00:45:16,239 Speaker 1: a lot just because it makes me feel good. I 879 00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:19,680 Speaker 1: love the guitars and that the instrumentation. That is my 880 00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:22,160 Speaker 1: favorite song of his. But again, that is so basic. 881 00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:25,480 Speaker 1: But you do hear Jeremy Allen White singing that song 882 00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 1: in the trailer, and I had to go and actually 883 00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:31,520 Speaker 1: look and research and find that clip of him saying 884 00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:34,799 Speaker 1: that that was him singing in this movie because it 885 00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:38,319 Speaker 1: sounded so much like the recording that paired with his 886 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:42,279 Speaker 1: performance on stage in that scene, I thought, clearly they 887 00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:44,600 Speaker 1: just pulled the original song and put it over the 888 00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:46,640 Speaker 1: footage and slapped it on the trailer and got it 889 00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:49,120 Speaker 1: out there. Not the case. So that is so much 890 00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:52,560 Speaker 1: more exciting to me that we're actually going to not 891 00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:56,360 Speaker 1: only see him as Bruce Springsteen, but hear his rendition 892 00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:59,279 Speaker 1: of his songs. Now are they duping a song? Did 893 00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:01,000 Speaker 1: they just tell them say that? And they kind of 894 00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:03,959 Speaker 1: did what they did with Bohemian Rhapsody and just work 895 00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:06,160 Speaker 1: in some of his vocals because I don't really know 896 00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:08,560 Speaker 1: him to be a singer, but it looks like he 897 00:46:08,640 --> 00:46:11,040 Speaker 1: went through that process and did it for this film. 898 00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:13,560 Speaker 1: So that is dedication, and that is what I'm saying. 899 00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:16,360 Speaker 1: You need an actor who is going to go to 900 00:46:16,520 --> 00:46:19,400 Speaker 1: those links to take on a role and not just 901 00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:22,239 Speaker 1: show up like an Austen Butler and just look like 902 00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:26,520 Speaker 1: the person and try to embody them by changing their accent. 903 00:46:27,120 --> 00:46:30,319 Speaker 1: I feel like he is still being himself while being 904 00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:32,839 Speaker 1: Bruce Springsteen, and I think that is going to make 905 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:36,719 Speaker 1: this story and this movie really resonate with audiences. Will 906 00:46:36,719 --> 00:46:38,960 Speaker 1: it get him an oscar though, It's a great question 907 00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:41,000 Speaker 1: because last year. I think a lot of people thought 908 00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:44,120 Speaker 1: Timothy Chalomeay was really a shoe in to get the nomination. 909 00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:46,520 Speaker 1: I thought that was a no brainer. I wasn't going 910 00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:48,680 Speaker 1: out on a limb predicting that when I first saw 911 00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:51,440 Speaker 1: that trailer. Here we are again with this biopick. But 912 00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:54,400 Speaker 1: I just think overall, his performance wasn't the strongest and 913 00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:57,680 Speaker 1: he didn't really deserve the Oscar. Jeremy ellen White, I 914 00:46:57,760 --> 00:47:00,360 Speaker 1: feel it's just on the cusp. This would be at 915 00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:03,719 Speaker 1: a great point in his career to be nominated for 916 00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:06,880 Speaker 1: an Oscar and to win, because after getting snubbed for 917 00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:11,720 Speaker 1: The Ironclaw, and how much just great movies and TV 918 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:15,480 Speaker 1: shows he's been putting out recently. I could see that 919 00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:18,800 Speaker 1: just in his career happening for him. With this movie 920 00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:22,279 Speaker 1: coming out in October, right before Oscar season, I still 921 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:24,719 Speaker 1: think it would be fresh on people's minds. And if 922 00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:27,759 Speaker 1: the movie is successful, I think that would add to 923 00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:30,839 Speaker 1: the conversation as well. And who knows, if this movie 924 00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:33,719 Speaker 1: is successful, Like I was just saying, maybe they start 925 00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:36,880 Speaker 1: teaming up some of these musicians, because we have Timothy 926 00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:41,000 Speaker 1: Shalloway as Bob Dylan, we have Harris Dickerson, Paul Meskal, 927 00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:44,359 Speaker 1: Barry Keegan, and Joseph Quinn as the Beatles. They are 928 00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:47,600 Speaker 1: each getting their own Beatles movie, and now we have 929 00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:51,440 Speaker 1: Jeremy Allen White as Bruce Springsteen. Maybe they form like 930 00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:55,160 Speaker 1: an Avengers of musicians and we get like an ultimate 931 00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:58,200 Speaker 1: movie where they all come together and create some fictional 932 00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:01,239 Speaker 1: concert that never really happened. But could you imagine that 933 00:48:01,400 --> 00:48:04,960 Speaker 1: like a connection between all of these storylines. We need 934 00:48:05,120 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 1: cinematic universes everywhere. Why not with real life biopicks, you 935 00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:12,839 Speaker 1: have them crossing over into each other. So if one 936 00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:16,479 Speaker 1: actor plays a musician in one movie, they're just set. 937 00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:18,799 Speaker 1: They're going to play them in any appearance in any 938 00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:21,600 Speaker 1: biopick that comes out after it. My other big concern, 939 00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:24,960 Speaker 1: not only with this biopick, but with any biopick, if 940 00:48:25,000 --> 00:48:29,200 Speaker 1: it comes out when that person is still alive, that 941 00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:33,080 Speaker 1: person is probably going to have some influence on the story. 942 00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:36,320 Speaker 1: In this case, Bruce Springsteen worked with Jeremy Allen White 943 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:38,160 Speaker 1: on set. He got to talk to him a lot, 944 00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:41,120 Speaker 1: got to get inside of his brain, talk to him 945 00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:42,960 Speaker 1: about some of the things in the movie, how he 946 00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:46,520 Speaker 1: would do these things. And Bruce Springsteen was very generous 947 00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:49,760 Speaker 1: with his time providing that information. But I think also 948 00:48:50,120 --> 00:48:53,400 Speaker 1: in doing that him still being alive and having that influence, 949 00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:57,680 Speaker 1: even with him signing off on Jeremy Allen White to 950 00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:00,600 Speaker 1: play him, he could have some infla. It's the other 951 00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:03,000 Speaker 1: way of what he wants to include, what he doesn't 952 00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:05,839 Speaker 1: like in the movie. Maybe I don't want to show 953 00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:08,160 Speaker 1: that part of my life, and I feel like that 954 00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:11,080 Speaker 1: changes it because that causes the film not to have 955 00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:14,600 Speaker 1: the right perspective if there is that influence. I was 956 00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:18,440 Speaker 1: pleasantly surprised, though, with a Bob Dylan movie that it 957 00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:21,920 Speaker 1: did show his darker side, his mean streak, and didn't 958 00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:25,480 Speaker 1: always portray him in the best light. So it can 959 00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:28,160 Speaker 1: be done. But I have a feeling that there were 960 00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:32,359 Speaker 1: much more darker things that Bob Dylan was experiencing during 961 00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:35,560 Speaker 1: that time that we did not get. So again, I'm 962 00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:37,880 Speaker 1: not the biggest Bruce Springsteen fan. I don't know the 963 00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:40,439 Speaker 1: lore of his music and his life. I don't really 964 00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:43,920 Speaker 1: know how he has inspired so many people, why he 965 00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:46,839 Speaker 1: has become as big of an icon as he is. 966 00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:49,640 Speaker 1: But I'm willing to learn, and I think this movie 967 00:49:49,719 --> 00:49:51,360 Speaker 1: is gonna be the one to do it for me. 968 00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:54,560 Speaker 1: So I'm excited for this biopic, Deliver Me from Nowhere, 969 00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:57,040 Speaker 1: comes out in theaters on October twenty fourth. 970 00:49:57,480 --> 00:49:58,600 Speaker 3: Gaid that was. 971 00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:02,359 Speaker 1: This week's edition of Movie B Frame or Bar and 972 00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:04,839 Speaker 1: that is gonna do it for another episode here of 973 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,279 Speaker 1: the podcast.

But this week I'm going over to 998 00:51:14,719 --> 00:51:18,279 Speaker 1: my comments on TikTok and shouting out stay gold x 999 00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:22,600 Speaker 1: Darling who commented on my review of The Materialists and said, yes, 1000 00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:25,360 Speaker 1: they don't quite make them like they used to anymore. 1001 00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:27,960 Speaker 1: In regard to me being like, why don't they have 1002 00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:31,880 Speaker 1: rom coms with really great movie quotes anymore? There was 1003 00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:35,040 Speaker 1: a big discussion online in my comments of a lot 1004 00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:38,760 Speaker 1: of people don't even consider Materialists to be a rom com. 1005 00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:41,239 Speaker 1: I do. I still think it falls into the category. 1006 00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:44,440 Speaker 1: I think that's how it was marketed towards us. So 1007 00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:48,400 Speaker 1: if somebody declares themselves in a genre, I am going 1008 00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:51,960 Speaker 1: to be respectful of that. Somebody puts out a song 1009 00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:53,920 Speaker 1: and says this is a country song, I'm not going 1010 00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:56,120 Speaker 1: to be like, well, really, it feels like a pop song. 1011 00:51:56,320 --> 00:51:59,759 Speaker 1: If you declare the genre you want a movie to 1012 00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:02,480 Speaker 1: be in, I am going to abide by that, and 1013 00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:05,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna find those elements in the movie that backs 1014 00:52:05,960 --> 00:52:08,719 Speaker 1: up your claim. I think it's much more evolved. I 1015 00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:13,680 Speaker 1: think it is probably more into the romance side, so 1016 00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:16,440 Speaker 1: I feel like maybe to most it comes off as 1017 00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:18,560 Speaker 1: a little bit more of a drama and the comedy 1018 00:52:18,680 --> 00:52:22,360 Speaker 1: is very subdued, not like it was in the two thousands, 1019 00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:24,960 Speaker 1: where I think most people think like, oh, that's a 1020 00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:27,520 Speaker 1: rock coming to two thousands where things are very wacky. 1021 00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:30,840 Speaker 1: I think this is the genre evolving. So there's a 1022 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:32,719 Speaker 1: whole lot of discussion on that. There's a lot of 1023 00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:35,520 Speaker 1: discussion on movie quotes. So thank you guys for always 1024 00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:37,799 Speaker 1: being a part of the conversation.
