Speaker 1: So we're going spooky today. Spooky And on the spooky.
Speaker 2: Theme, what was the scariest movie you remember seeing as
Speaker 2: a kid.
Speaker 1: Oh, the scariest, Yeah, what freaked you out when you
Speaker 1: were younger?
Speaker 3: Still to this day, Jaws can't go in the ocean
Speaker 3: without hearing.
Speaker 4: That stupid score. Oh my gosh.
Speaker 3: Yes, I have been afraid of sharks my whole life from.
Speaker 1: That from Jaws.
Speaker 4: Really, yes, from the movie.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And it's funny to go back to this isn't
Speaker 3: where we cover but Universal Studios and see the yak
Speaker 3: come up so bad.
Speaker 4: I don't believe that it actually scared me, but yes,
Speaker 4: for sure.
Speaker 1: John Peter eventually just very very weird.
Speaker 2: Random side note, the guy who wrote the book Jaws,
Speaker 2: Peter Benchley, lived in the little village in.
Speaker 1: Connecticut that I got married in.
Speaker 2: So we go by Peter Benchley's house all the times, like, hey,
Speaker 2: Peter ban Hey, which is kind of get that.
Speaker 4: Wrote the scariest book of life.
Speaker 1: I feel like, yeah, No, Jaws.
Speaker 2: Is kind of a for especially for a specific generation.
Speaker 2: Jaws was a big one that really affected people. I
Speaker 2: mean people weren't going in the water for a while
Speaker 2: after Jaws.
Speaker 3: I bet it's still like if I'm in a pool
Speaker 3: by myself.
Speaker 1: But that's a choice.
Speaker 3: I when I was little, I would swear a shark
Speaker 3: was going to come out of the hole under my
Speaker 3: diving board.
Speaker 1: I don't think that's gonna happen. It's not how it works.
Speaker 3: No, But when I was little, all of a sudden,
Speaker 3: I'd hear the dada and I would just start racingto
Speaker 3: the steps, racing like.
Speaker 1: A great But as that's a choice, you can avoid
Speaker 1: the water.
Speaker 2: My scariest thing growing up I couldn't avoid because I
Speaker 2: couldn't not sleep, and it was nightmare in Elm Street.
Speaker 1: Yeah, just the worst.
Speaker 2: And my brother knew how much it scared me, so
Speaker 2: to keep me out of his room, he got a
Speaker 2: Freddy Krueger poster and.
Speaker 1: Just plastered it on so that I went I just
Speaker 1: like then I'd stay out of his room. Yeah, that
Speaker 1: scared the bejeebers out of me.
Speaker 4: Crazy though.
Speaker 3: When I was on the Cheeta Girls, when we were
Speaker 3: doing tours, Keeley and I would watch a marathon of
Speaker 3: scary movies like our thing was Saw the Sauce series.
Speaker 4: So good, so good.
Speaker 3: I mean, I have so many times getting off the
Speaker 3: bus in the middle of the night, going to our
Speaker 3: hotel room and booking it to Keilley's room and knocking
Speaker 3: on the door like I.
Speaker 4: Can't stand by myself, I gotta stay here.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I know, that's too freaky. I don't like
Speaker 2: anything that messages with my sleep or my eating.
Speaker 1: And horror movies.
Speaker 4: I loved it.
Speaker 3: Though I loved it, I don't get to watch them
Speaker 3: very much because Jordan, my husband's not a big fan
Speaker 3: of scary movies.
Speaker 2: See, thank you, Jordan and I are going to get
Speaker 2: along very very well. I can already.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I can't.
Speaker 3: I can't watch them anymore because I'm gonna watch them
Speaker 3: by myself.
Speaker 1: That's just insane. Notting, not interested.
Speaker 2: But welcome to Magical Rewind, the show that makes you
Speaker 2: want to grab your friends, your pjs and your popcorn
Speaker 2: and go back to a time when all the hell
Speaker 2: we're smart, the Waves, Tsunamis and the High School's Musical.
Speaker 3: I'm Wilford Dell and I'm Sabrina Bryan, and We've got
Speaker 3: one for you Today.
Speaker 2: We are jumping off the d com list, I know,
Speaker 2: going to our second wonderful world of Disney. And there's
Speaker 2: a big difference between the dcom and the Wonderful World at.
Speaker 1: Disney A huge difference a number of reasons.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oh my goodness, a huge difference.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I mean, first of all, it's mostly based around adult actors,
Speaker 2: which the dcoms are not.
Speaker 1: It's mostly based around the kids.
Speaker 2: Sure, there's certainly a bigger budget, Yes, usually some sort
Speaker 2: of a period piece or a big kind of set piece.
Speaker 2: I mean, this are our movie today is no different.
Speaker 2: So strap in and hold your pennies, and you're gonna
Speaker 2: know what that means. Because this week we are going
Speaker 2: spooky with the nineteen ninety seven Wonderful World of Disney
Speaker 2: movie Tower of Terror, which was a major, major moment
Speaker 2: in time for the Disney Company and for ABC and
Speaker 2: for everybody else because it's a movie that would change
Speaker 2: pop culture forever. And I know you're thinking that's a
Speaker 2: very hyperbolic claim, but it's true. And because this was
Speaker 2: Disney's first ever attempt at making a movie based on
Speaker 2: one of their theme park attractions, which just flip the
Speaker 2: script from what they normally did, because they usually made
Speaker 2: rides based on films that already existed. Yes, and this
Speaker 2: they reversed, so it would become a practice even to
Speaker 2: this day. That stayed part of the studio's you know,
Speaker 2: synergenic game plan, and.
Speaker 1: We are, of course talking about that.
Speaker 2: The entire title is the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror,
Speaker 2: which is open originally at disney World in nineteen ninety four.
Speaker 2: We were actually I think that was one of the
Speaker 2: things that the cast of Boy Meets World was flown
Speaker 2: down there for, was the opening of Tower Terror.
Speaker 1: But we'll we'll talk about all that, but that.
Speaker 2: Was three years before this movie came out, right, And
Speaker 2: by the way, if you want to watch along with us,
Speaker 2: it's available Tower Terrors available for free on YouTube, So
Speaker 2: go check it out, or you know, sit with us
Speaker 2: while we talk about it and then go check it out.
Speaker 1: Either one works. Yes, have you been on Tower Terror? Oh?
Speaker 4: A ton of times? A ton of times.
Speaker 1: At both parks that didn't? Yeh. Is there one at Disneyland?
Speaker 3: So it's not at Disneyland, it's at California Adventure, which
Speaker 3: is across connected.
Speaker 2: And it's Guardians of the Galaxy now right, it is.
Speaker 3: And I am not as big of a fan of
Speaker 3: it as that, I'll be honest. I liked it when
Speaker 3: it was the original Tower of Tear. It felt more Classicah,
Speaker 3: it didn't ruin it. It's pretty much the same thing.
Speaker 3: It's the decor that's in the inside. As you're walking through,
Speaker 3: you know that ride is never, I swear, never under
Speaker 3: forty minutes long to wait for. So I've been on
Speaker 3: this one a lot, but I have been at the
Speaker 3: one at Walt Disney World and love it too. I
Speaker 3: can't remember which. I know when I was younger, there
Speaker 3: was one that was like a quicker or a longer
Speaker 3: fall of some sort.
Speaker 1: I want to say that was Florida.
Speaker 4: Maybe, Okay, maybe like at the bigger ride of.
Speaker 2: I think so, because we did there was. It was
Speaker 2: much more of a grand story when it was Tower
Speaker 2: of Terror. I mean, Guardians of the Galaxy is great,
Speaker 2: but it kind of they get you up, you watch
Speaker 2: the screen and then they added a bunch of drops.
Speaker 2: So yeah, the ride itself is maybe better because you
Speaker 2: experience it more, but I felt like the story involving
Speaker 2: Tower of Terror was better.
Speaker 1: It was kind of all encompassing.
Speaker 3: It's a creepier leading up to it. Yeah, and there
Speaker 3: was people vibe.
Speaker 2: They built the story and they did all this kind
Speaker 2: of stuff. So I think this was one. I can't
Speaker 2: remember if This was one of the ones they brought
Speaker 2: us down to. But outside of Tower of Terror, I
Speaker 2: distinctly remember was the first time myself, Ben Savage and
Speaker 2: Ryder Strong looked over and we saw Michael J. Fox,
Speaker 2: Oh Rider Strong myself especially, he's one of our idols.
Speaker 2: So we looked at each other and said we can't
Speaker 2: not take this opportunity.
Speaker 1: So we walked over.
Speaker 2: And Ben said, excuse me, sir, and he looked up
Speaker 2: with the big smile and said, did you just call
Speaker 2: me sir?
Speaker 1: He's like, I've Ben, I know your brother, I've met
Speaker 1: you before. Are you kidding? And then he just launched
Speaker 1: in this conversation. He was the nicest human being.
Speaker 2: They always say, don't meet your heroes, but oh man,
Speaker 2: he just everything I thought he was going to be
Speaker 2: was that much. It was that times a thousand, and
Speaker 2: it all took place right outside of the Tower of
Speaker 2: Terror ride. And then we spent the night just riding
Speaker 2: this thing over and over and over again with different celebrities.
Speaker 2: So there's pictures of us with like Bill Ny the
Speaker 2: science guy, Orbin Burnson and all these people.
Speaker 1: They would just throw us on the ride.
Speaker 4: With, oh just to get those pictures to.
Speaker 1: Get the pictures at the end.
Speaker 2: And I've told this story on Podmey's World and we
Speaker 2: always kind of shake our heads if they let us
Speaker 2: do this. But back in the day, when we would
Speaker 2: get the private back door passes and get to go
Speaker 2: to the park, they would add the right you'd get,
Speaker 2: put us in the ride. They would shut down the cameras,
Speaker 2: they wouldn't put anybody else in the ride with us,
Speaker 2: and then they wouldn't put the safety bars down so
Speaker 2: we could literally we would lie across the seats and
Speaker 2: as it dropped, we would be sideways in the air
Speaker 2: and like two or three of us would be.
Speaker 1: Completely out of the seats in the air.
Speaker 2: They'd come around and pretend to like lock it, like
Speaker 2: you're good, and it was. I mean, we had more
Speaker 2: fun doing things we shouldn't have done on that ride.
Speaker 4: That is shocking. I can that is so dangerous. I'm
Speaker 4: so glad you made it.
Speaker 1: Will carry you're in like a box thing.
Speaker 4: We're fine, but oh we had this ceiling and dropped
Speaker 4: down and hit that. You guys probably look like cartoons
Speaker 4: on that.
Speaker 1: It was so much fun.
Speaker 2: That's why I started with Grab your Pennies because Bill
Speaker 2: Ny the science guy. We went on and said, all right,
Speaker 2: everybody hold a penny, and the picture is as you drop,
Speaker 2: the penny stays where it is, so the pennies above
Speaker 2: all of our hands as we're sitting there looking at
Speaker 2: the camera because of science.
Speaker 1: So yes, wow, huge fan of the ride? As are you?
Speaker 1: The question I have for you is were you a
Speaker 1: huge fan of the movie?
Speaker 3: You know, I don't know if it was for me.
Speaker 3: I liked it a lot, but I feel that I
Speaker 3: have kind of fallen in love with every movie we've
Speaker 3: done so far, and it didn't fall in love with
Speaker 3: this one. I really liked knowing that I like scary movies.
Speaker 3: I like to get like, you know, I didn't get scared.
Speaker 4: Really right ever. I don't know it was.
Speaker 3: It was sad to me because I really was excited
Speaker 3: to fall in love with another movie.
Speaker 4: And it was good.
Speaker 2: It was great, kind of kind of in the forgettable
Speaker 2: category for you. You enjoyed it, but you're not going
Speaker 2: to turn around and watch this again right away?
Speaker 3: No, you know, I might this might be one of
Speaker 3: Monroe like introducing her. I didn't know if it was
Speaker 3: going to be actually really scary, so I didn't ever
Speaker 3: watch it right when she's ready for maybe a little
Speaker 3: bit more of a scary movie. I think this would
Speaker 3: be great to watch with her. You know, I love
Speaker 3: that aspect. But for me, I guess if I was
Speaker 3: wanting a scary, spooky movie, I want to like get
Speaker 3: chills and kind of okay, you know that kind of thing,
Speaker 3: and that it's never happened. I kept waiting for it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's the disnified version of Yeah.
Speaker 3: So it's not that I didn't like it, so nobody
Speaker 3: come trolling me freaking out about it. It's just that
Speaker 3: I just didn't fall in love with it, and I
Speaker 3: really thought I was gonna.
Speaker 1: Hey, that's you're you're allowed to do that. You're allowed.
Speaker 4: That's an honest answer, Okay, not here to lie.
Speaker 1: I liked it. I did like it. I liked the story.
Speaker 2: I liked how with a Wonderful World of Disney, they
Speaker 2: kind of went more in depth than a D com.
Speaker 2: So there's a great backstory, there's a big set pieces,
Speaker 2: the elaborate costumes, good music, so stuff like that I enjoyed.
Speaker 1: I felt like they were.
Speaker 2: Swinging for the fences and maybe they didn't knock it
Speaker 2: out of the park, but it was definitely a stand
Speaker 2: up triple for me. I thought it was good not
Speaker 2: to mix metaphors. But all right, so let's before we
Speaker 2: get stuck here on the eleven floor. Yes, we'll get
Speaker 2: to the synopsis. So, with the help of his niece,
Speaker 2: a disgraced newspaper reporter investigates an abandoned luxury hotel where,
Speaker 2: sixty years earlier, five people mysteriously dis appeared in an elevator. Now,
Speaker 2: unlike the ride, the movie is not connected to the
Speaker 2: Twilight Zone. But they did make a very distinct decision
Speaker 2: in hiring DJ McHale to write and direct the movie.
Speaker 2: And Dj was the co creator of the legendary hit
Speaker 2: Nickelodeon show Are You Afraid of the Dark, which.
Speaker 4: I was one of my favorite shows.
Speaker 1: I was on Are You Afraid of the Dark? It
Speaker 1: was a ton of fun.
Speaker 2: I shot an episode up in Montreal and it was
Speaker 2: a great experience and a wonderful show. So this kind
Speaker 2: of seems like their attempt to jump into the goosebumps
Speaker 2: kind of vibe of young not even horror, young spooky,
Speaker 2: I think is what you would say, Like like, you
Speaker 2: don't say violence in Disney movies, you say action. So
Speaker 2: you wouldn't say horror, and Disney movies you say spooky,
Speaker 2: it's not gory.
Speaker 4: Get slashing and blood splash.
Speaker 2: No it's not saw thankfully, but they so they obviously
Speaker 2: knowing they wanted to start this whole new genre, they
Speaker 2: hired DJ McHale, who was one of the pioneers of
Speaker 2: this genre. The movie stars Steve Guttenberg as Buzzy Crocker,
Speaker 2: another great Disney name.
Speaker 1: That's one thing Disney does very well, who was a
Speaker 1: huge star in the eighties.
Speaker 2: For all of our listeners who are maybe on the
Speaker 2: younger side, Steve Gutenberg was in everything.
Speaker 4: Yes, huge comedy.
Speaker 2: I mean he was in Cocoon, Diner, three Men in
Speaker 2: the Baby Short Circuit, which was a huge movie. Yes
Speaker 2: for kids my age, with Number five Johnny five the Robot,
Speaker 2: which was the coolest thing in the world.
Speaker 4: H so go I love those.
Speaker 2: But he also did like sixty two Police Academy movies.
Speaker 2: There was a bunch of those, yes, So this he
Speaker 2: was in just everything for the Disney fans out there,
Speaker 2: coming off the nineteen ninety five Disney movie The Big Green,
Speaker 2: which he did before Tiger, I had to.
Speaker 4: Look The Big Green up.
Speaker 1: I did two I didn't know what that was. We'll
Speaker 1: have to watch that one eventually too. We'll just do
Speaker 1: a Gutenberg week.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: And then there was a young actress that nobody's heard
Speaker 2: of still, I don't know what happened to her name
Speaker 2: is I want to say, Kirsten.
Speaker 1: Kirsten Dunce, Is that right? Who? Obviously, of course du
Speaker 1: is it Kirsten d It's Kirsten Dunce who plays Anna Patterson.
Speaker 2: She's Buzzy's niece and she's of course along for all
Speaker 2: the adventures. And she was already a big star by
Speaker 2: this point because interview at the Vampire came out where
Speaker 2: she was with Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt. She had
Speaker 2: to kiss Brad Pitt, which made the news everywhere because
Speaker 2: she was like eleven.
Speaker 4: Had poor thing.
Speaker 1: She's like eleven years old. It was super key.
Speaker 4: That is weird.
Speaker 2: It was weird, but she got nominated for Golden Globe.
Speaker 2: I think she was like eleven years old at the time.
Speaker 2: She was also in Jumanji and of course has since
Speaker 2: become a huge Hollywood a lister. Virgin suicides, bring it on,
Speaker 2: Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, power of the Dog,
Speaker 2: and of course was mj in the original Spider Man franchise, which,
Speaker 2: of course, being a big nerd is I'm a huge
Speaker 2: fan of. She's already been nominated for four Golden Globes,
Speaker 2: one Academy Award, and has a star on the Hollywood
Speaker 2: Walk of Fame, which for me, I'm saying it right, Kirsten, Yes, Kirsten.
Speaker 1: We know we were chucking, but.
Speaker 2: Yes, the Hollywood Walker Fame is the only thing I
Speaker 2: had ever wanted in my career.
Speaker 1: I don't care about Golden Globes. I just just saying like, hey,
Speaker 1: you can walk over my name. That's really cool. So
Speaker 1: she has that Nia Peebles.
Speaker 2: Another great eighties mainstay, yes, is Jill Perry, who's Buddy's
Speaker 2: ex girlfriend and former editor. She was best known as
Speaker 2: an R and B and pop singer in the eighties,
Speaker 2: but transitioned into acting she was on Fame. She did Walker,
Speaker 2: Texas Ranger and our producers do these wonderful background checks
Speaker 2: and one thing they didn't write is one of the
Speaker 2: greatest films in the history of the world, which we
Speaker 2: talked about because we've talked about Brink and Johnny Tsunami,
Speaker 2: which was my Johnny Tsunami. Growing up an amazing surfing
Speaker 2: movie called The north Shore, which was just the coolest
Speaker 2: thing in the world, So go check out north Shore.
Speaker 2: She was amazing in that she hosted her own music
Speaker 2: dance show called The Party Machine and then was on
Speaker 2: Pretty Little Liars later.
Speaker 1: So the cast is amazing.
Speaker 2: Malaura Harden another one ye act and James absolutely Malaura
Speaker 2: Harden plays Caroline Crossman and Claire Poulay, who we fight
Speaker 2: out during the film. Of course is the French word
Speaker 2: for a chicken?
Speaker 1: You know? Whereas Jan Levinson or Jan Levinson.
Speaker 2: Gould originally on the Office, but she was also nominated
Speaker 2: for an Emmy for her work on Transparent.
Speaker 1: Could you tell?
Speaker 2: I mean sometimes you say it throws you. Could you tell?
Speaker 2: She was both the ghost.
Speaker 4: That that didn't right get me.
Speaker 1: I did not get me.
Speaker 4: It was instant. I was just just talking to a ghost.
Speaker 2: They didn't they didn't hide it fairwell. It didn't seem
Speaker 2: like they were really trying.
Speaker 4: To No, I didn't. I don't think they were really
Speaker 4: trying that much.
Speaker 3: No, he just had no idea, I guess because he
Speaker 3: didn't look at he hadn't seen the news face.
Speaker 2: They didn't have any pictures of the people that were
Speaker 2: in the elevator. I guess, I guess, I guess not.
Speaker 2: And Michael McShane is another one who plays Chris Q.
Speaker 1: Todd.
Speaker 2: He's the hotel's caretaker in the air to the building
Speaker 2: and you might recognize him from Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves.
Speaker 1: He was in Office Space Richie Rich. He was also
Speaker 1: on a.
Speaker 2: Little television show called Brotherly Love with three friends of mine,
Speaker 2: the Lawrence Brothers. And lastly, speaking of people that I
Speaker 2: know pretty well, almost like a sister, I would say
Speaker 2: Lindsay Ridgeway plays Sally, the child star who disappears on
Speaker 2: That Faithful Night and now haunts the hotel. She of
Speaker 2: course played the second Morgan Matthews on Boy Mets World
Speaker 2: and was there for five seasons. Shout out to Lindsay,
Speaker 2: who is the sweetest person you'll ever meet in your life.
Speaker 2: Was a wonderful little sister. And frankly, I thought was
Speaker 2: great in this movie.
Speaker 4: So adorable.
Speaker 2: She totally embodied that Shirley Temple, Shirley Temple.
Speaker 4: That little blonde Shirley Temple. So adorable.
Speaker 1: She was great.
Speaker 2: The movie runs eighty nine minutes long, which is one
Speaker 2: minute away from that ninety minute bullseye we were always
Speaker 2: trying to hit. It debuted on October twenty sixth, nineteen
Speaker 2: ninety seven, which is perfectly time for the All Hollows
Speaker 2: Eve Night. And it was filmed at the actual Tower
Speaker 2: of Terror in Orlando and then some of it on
Speaker 2: a sound stage in la But when you can make
Speaker 2: a ride that good that you can go and shoot
Speaker 2: a movie at it and it looks.
Speaker 3: Cool, I mean, think about the young actors that were
Speaker 3: there feeling like I'm filming at Walt.
Speaker 1: Disney World every day, shot at at theme park.
Speaker 3: I've shot stuff for you know, Disney three sixty five
Speaker 3: or there was certain things that were offset stuff right,
Speaker 3: and but not never our movies ever filmed there.
Speaker 4: Okay, I never was in a show that film there.
Speaker 3: It was just like interviews and stuff like that where
Speaker 3: they give you the plaid the people that walk you
Speaker 3: around and you get in the back entrance of everything,
Speaker 3: all the rides, any restaurants.
Speaker 4: Everything like that.
Speaker 3: So I've gotten that, but I haven't like shot every
Speaker 3: single day as like as far as an episode would
Speaker 3: be shot.
Speaker 1: It's so much fun. I remember for the thirty fifth
Speaker 1: anniversary or fiftieth Anniverse some.
Speaker 2: Anniversary for Disney, Melissa, Joan Hart and I hosted something
Speaker 2: where we had to shoot at the Magic Kingdom, and
Speaker 2: they wanted it to look like we had the whole
Speaker 2: park to ourselves, so we had to shoot at night.
Speaker 2: So I closed and it's just Melissa and I for
Speaker 2: eight hours at a closed down park in Disney World,
Speaker 2: and in between shots, they're like, yeah, just go on rides,
Speaker 2: so we just would around having the park tisa, it's
Speaker 2: in the world.
Speaker 1: It really is.
Speaker 2: So the movie kicks off with a flashback. It's nineteen
Speaker 2: thirty nine. It's a huge, big Halloween party. We witness
Speaker 2: a high society celebrity couple, a bell hop, a Shirley
Speaker 2: Temple like child star and her nanny disappear into a
Speaker 2: moving elevator when the hotel is struck by green lightning
Speaker 2: on the way to the hotel rooftop, which is called
Speaker 2: the Tip Top Club, which is a great name for
Speaker 2: a club. Yeah, okay, So when it comes to kind
Speaker 2: of the dcom halloweeny movie, we have under wraps, we
Speaker 2: have Halloween Town, don't look under the bed twitches. But
Speaker 2: this one essentially kicks off where you might not know this,
Speaker 2: But then when it cuts to sixty years later with
Speaker 2: killing five people.
Speaker 3: Yeah dead gun, I mean starts straight up murder yet
Speaker 3: gone yeah gone right from the start.
Speaker 2: Right from the start, little girl Nicele, the bell hop
Speaker 2: who seems like he's a he's a nice chap in
Speaker 2: the nanny. In the first ninety seconds of the movie,
Speaker 2: we're killing all five of these characters.
Speaker 3: Right, and then it cuts to the next scene, which
Speaker 3: is a photography session of like a fifteen year old
Speaker 3: almost getting killed by an actor who doesn't know what
Speaker 3: he's doing with this giant real knife.
Speaker 2: Like yeh, literally, guy's got the medical saw and she's
Speaker 2: dressed in supposed to be an alien because he's Steve
Speaker 2: Gutenberg is works for like the Sun magazine or one
Speaker 2: of these kind of bad magazines where it's, you know,
Speaker 2: an alien stole my mother kind of magazine. It's the inquisitor,
Speaker 2: is that yes, and he's faking the pictures and uh yeah,
Speaker 2: they almost kill so Kirsten pronounced correctly done all the
Speaker 2: guys as well in the first two minutes.
Speaker 4: AGA, That's what I'm saying. It all happened so fast,
Speaker 4: it does.
Speaker 3: This is gonna I felt like this is gonna be
Speaker 3: the shortest movie I ever watch.
Speaker 2: So they're starting with a tone that's for sure, Yeah,
Speaker 2: a little crazy. So we cut to modern day after
Speaker 2: these five people are horribly killed in front of us.
Speaker 1: And we get Steve Gutenberg and Kirsten Duns.
Speaker 2: We find out, like we said, Buzzy was fired from
Speaker 2: his Los Angeles the Los Angeles Banner, which is a
Speaker 2: fake newspaper here in LA, for publishing a story that
Speaker 2: turned out to be fake.
Speaker 1: They blamed him for it.
Speaker 2: He hasn't been able to work since, and they've really
Speaker 2: set it up to where this guy, his whole life
Speaker 2: is just about getting that next story so he can
Speaker 2: get back to where he is.
Speaker 1: Consequences be damned.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, Craven, the glory of the number one story
Speaker 4: on the banner.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Craven. By the way, do you remember nineties tabloids?
Speaker 2: Do you remember how great the nineties tabloids? Like the
Speaker 2: really tabloid tabloid? He was like not bat Boy found and.
Speaker 4: No, I don't remember any.
Speaker 2: I encourage everybody out there to go. And if it's
Speaker 2: still in publication, I think it is. It's called the
Speaker 2: Weekly World News, okay, and it is literally and I'm
Speaker 2: not this is not hyperbole. It is literally some of
Speaker 2: the best comedy writing you will ever read, because it's
Speaker 2: all tongue in cheek. It's all you know, a vampire
Speaker 2: is really my uncle kind of stuff.
Speaker 1: But the articles are written so wonderfully. It's just funny.
Speaker 4: But is it trying to put off like he is
Speaker 4: as it's real. No, it's it is a joke.
Speaker 1: It's both, but it's okay, okay, exactly, you know.
Speaker 4: Because he was trying to put this off as real.
Speaker 2: I think old. I think older. Did you see so
Speaker 2: I married an axe murderer? No, okay, his mom, you should.
Speaker 2: His mom, you know, believes these are She calls it
Speaker 2: the paper.
Speaker 1: So I think there's a certain maybe age of reader or.
Speaker 2: Client tele of the weekly world news that might think
Speaker 2: this stuff is real. But anyone under eighty who reads it,
Speaker 2: it's really laugh out loud funny. So go and check
Speaker 2: that out.
Speaker 3: So he does meet somebody in the movie that does
Speaker 3: read these exactly, believes it actually.
Speaker 2: And who's an older woman, and it's perble. Did you now,
Speaker 2: I know you said this movie didn't jump up and
Speaker 2: grab you right away, But did.
Speaker 1: You like the team up? Did you like Buzzy and
Speaker 1: his niece kind of being the team. Did that work
Speaker 1: for you?
Speaker 4: It that that will go. I'll get into it more
Speaker 4: with Sabrina Seas.
Speaker 3: It did kind of creep me out at the very beginning,
Speaker 3: like I just kinda you know, she's at this kind
Speaker 3: of age that is a little funky for her to
Speaker 3: be spending the night and you know, these this kind
Speaker 3: of weird and getting put in awkward positions, you know,
Speaker 3: and you can see her mom is kind of battling it.
Speaker 3: So yeah, it did seem a little off. But being
Speaker 3: who it was that was playing these characters, I didn't care.
Speaker 4: I wanted to.
Speaker 3: See Kersti's yeah, I wanted to see them act together,
Speaker 3: so I didn't didn't.
Speaker 1: It didn't bother me that I think.
Speaker 2: I think they were also really trying to write him
Speaker 2: like the Peter Pan syndrome, where you know, he's he's
Speaker 2: supposed to be a kid too. I agree with you,
Speaker 2: there was by the time it got to her sleeping
Speaker 2: on the couch behind him, Yes, and like throwing the
Speaker 2: blanket off a little bit.
Speaker 1: I had that moment of a little bit of an
Speaker 1: ew kind of moment, but it went.
Speaker 2: Away quickly because it was like, come on, this is
Speaker 2: a wonderful world at Disney.
Speaker 1: It's his niece.
Speaker 2: They're good friends, right, you know, she supports him, she's
Speaker 2: his greatest fan. Yeah, so I got it. But I
Speaker 2: felt that too, that one moment of like, ew, yeah,
Speaker 2: but actually, what you were exactly just talking about. An
Speaker 2: old lady named Abigail comes and visits Buzzy by of
Speaker 2: course breaking into his home.
Speaker 1: Well, in all fairness, we find out the landlord.
Speaker 2: The landlord let her in, because of course what landlords
Speaker 2: do is just randomly let people into your apartment.
Speaker 1: Apparently, So there you go.
Speaker 4: That that was insane. I would be so so upset
Speaker 4: with my landlord, like you.
Speaker 3: Do not if you have not actually met this person
Speaker 3: with me, do not let them in.
Speaker 1: I mean, thank you. You just let some burglar or
Speaker 1: something into my home.
Speaker 2: I don't care if they look like a nice little
Speaker 2: old lady, right, you got So who knows what this
Speaker 2: woman is doing?
Speaker 4: Right?
Speaker 2: But it turns out, of course she is a fan
Speaker 2: of his work, and she claims, at least at the time,
Speaker 2: to be a witness to the mysterious Halloween disappearance, which
Speaker 2: is now by this point obviously they've set up has
Speaker 2: become huge Hollywood legend, famous folklore. Sally Shine has become
Speaker 2: a household name. Everybody knows this story, right, it's eternal.
Speaker 2: So she comes in with this big what he thinks
Speaker 2: is a big story. Hey, I was there. Everybody knows
Speaker 2: everything but the why, and I can tell you why.
Speaker 2: And she spins this story that Sally's nanny, who we
Speaker 2: see very briefly, who's one of the horrible deceased people
Speaker 2: at the very beginning of our film, is a witch.
Speaker 4: Yeah, who looks very unpleasant.
Speaker 1: So they've set it up to her.
Speaker 3: It's easy, Yes, it's easy to believe her because this
Speaker 3: lady looks not nice at all.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Not only that.
Speaker 2: But here's where they again take a super dark turn.
Speaker 2: Is she doesn't just say that, oh she's a witch
Speaker 2: and she's killed them or banished them. She says she
Speaker 2: wants Sally Shine to spend eternity in torture and pain.
Speaker 4: Yes, harsh words. She's like ten, Yeah, what did this
Speaker 4: little girl do to this nanny?
Speaker 2: I mean, So they're setting it up to where it's
Speaker 2: not just hey, she made her disappear, it's she's for sixty.
Speaker 1: Years now been in constant pain. That's when I paused it.
Speaker 1: I was like, oh my god, how about my popcorn?
Speaker 4: I know it was so intense, so intense.
Speaker 2: Right, I mean that was that was That was, you know,
Speaker 2: very strange. I also, did you have any trouble buying
Speaker 2: that she was a fan of his, that that's why
Speaker 2: she used it to get to him?
Speaker 3: Yes, because and it was the way they were interacting too.
Speaker 4: She was so creepy to me from the like she was.
Speaker 3: I felt not sure about this story from the beginning
Speaker 3: of this.
Speaker 1: Movie, not sure about her story that she was telling.
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, I felt like there was some crack that
Speaker 3: we were mean not that wasn't being explained just yet,
Speaker 3: that we were gonna find out.
Speaker 4: I wasn't sure exactly what it was.
Speaker 3: I didn't realize what it would be at the end,
Speaker 3: but there was something that was because she was so creepy.
Speaker 3: There's one point where she goes in for a hug
Speaker 3: to Buzzy and he.
Speaker 1: Which is so.
Speaker 4: Jittery around her, and she just is like this, like
Speaker 4: very creepy.
Speaker 3: The way she tells the story and everything, it did
Speaker 3: seem like she was this distressed person.
Speaker 4: She seemed creepy about it.
Speaker 1: She did.
Speaker 4: There was like an obsession with it.
Speaker 2: It was weird. Yeah, so I thought it too. I
Speaker 2: felt that same thing were something.
Speaker 3: So I wasn't trust in this old lady. I normally
Speaker 3: am a sucker for old ladies. I love them, and
Speaker 3: I was not trusting this one farther that I could throw, like.
Speaker 1: I believe, which would have been far because she seems
Speaker 1: like she seems tiny. Yeah.
Speaker 2: The other thing they but they did set up the
Speaker 2: character where I think Steve Gutenberg would have worked for
Speaker 2: anybody comes in with a story.
Speaker 1: Yes he's down, yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 3: Mean he instantly starts figuring out how to portray it.
Speaker 3: The scene that we go into not far after there
Speaker 3: with Kirsten Dunce in that wig and that dress was
Speaker 3: like a laugh out loud moment. It was so funny
Speaker 3: because she played it so well, just so embarrassed.
Speaker 1: Just please, I hope nobody sees.
Speaker 3: I am gonna die if someone recognizes me in this
Speaker 3: awful wig and this baby doll pink dress.
Speaker 2: So anyway, we go from his or his house and
Speaker 2: we get to meet Q who's the groundskeeper and the
Speaker 2: grandson of the bell hop who's now apparently the heir
Speaker 2: to the hotel.
Speaker 1: If they can solve the mystery of how that happened,
Speaker 1: but they kind of.
Speaker 2: They only addressed in one line, how you can be
Speaker 2: a bell hop, which his grandfather was one of the
Speaker 2: bell hops. Was the bell hop who disappeared on the elevator.
Speaker 4: Yes, he was in the elevator with them, but.
Speaker 2: Apparently he was also the bell hop. Was the son
Speaker 2: of the guy who owns the hotel?
Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, you're you're like, yeah, yeah, So here's the thing.
Speaker 3: I would have taken that story if he was like
Speaker 3: a young fifteen year old, Yes, right, like the first
Speaker 3: a first job. You know you're gonna work for this.
Speaker 3: I want you to work from the ground up to
Speaker 3: really be able to understand the workings of everything in this.
Speaker 4: Hotel when you own it.
Speaker 1: Great idea.
Speaker 3: But the guy already has been married and has a child,
Speaker 3: because otherwise Q wouldn't be here.
Speaker 4: So he's older.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's still a bell.
Speaker 3: Hop and he's a bell hop still, so that part
Speaker 3: didn't make sense.
Speaker 1: No, it was very strange how that happened.
Speaker 3: I had to rewind it to go wait what wait,
Speaker 3: explain that to me one more time. Cute because I'm
Speaker 3: not really understanding. Oh, your grandpa was what in his
Speaker 3: like thirties.
Speaker 4: I guess maybe it would be a good idea.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, when he had a baby. And it's also
Speaker 2: why why which they never explained at all. Why do
Speaker 2: you have to solve the mystery of the hotel to
Speaker 2: get the hotel?
Speaker 1: Wouldn't you just get the hotel?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I think it was more so not that he didn't
Speaker 3: have the hotel, but he couldn't open it again. They
Speaker 3: wanted to have that mystery solved. But I mean, can
Speaker 3: open the doors again, right?
Speaker 2: But couldn't I guess because imagine a the legal paperwork
Speaker 2: and having to determine if you solve the ghost mystery? Right?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: And b if the hotel was just his, that's p
Speaker 2: I'm in real estate in LA.
Speaker 1: That's a fifty million dollar building.
Speaker 2: He's not allowed to just sell it, so they could
Speaker 2: knock it down and put up condos like I I'm sorry,
Speaker 2: I can't sell this land.
Speaker 1: I have to solve them.
Speaker 4: I mean, you do have to disclose everything.
Speaker 3: Everyone already knows this story anyway, but you do have
Speaker 3: to disclose things like that in real estate.
Speaker 2: But everybody would know that, so somebody would go and
Speaker 2: buy that hotel and open it up as a spooky
Speaker 2: hotel or something like that. Right, So the idea that
Speaker 2: he had to solve the mystery before he again didn't
Speaker 2: fully get.
Speaker 1: That, was it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, once inside the hotel though, which Q has
Speaker 2: never set foot in because he's scared.
Speaker 1: Okay, some people don't like ghosts. I'm not a fan
Speaker 1: of ghosts.
Speaker 2: I don't believe in them, but they scare the hell
Speaker 2: out of me, so I don't know if I would
Speaker 2: have gone in either. But once you're in there, we
Speaker 2: get to meet the ghosts, who seem really frustrated that
Speaker 2: they're there. Obviously it's been sixty years, the nanny's still
Speaker 2: the main suspect, and through a series of conversations with
Speaker 2: the old lady, we find out that we think a
Speaker 2: spell has been cast and to release the ghosts to
Speaker 2: their next destination, another spell needs to be cast, and
Speaker 2: to do that, we need to find a personal object
Speaker 2: from every person there.
Speaker 1: Right, Right, I had to.
Speaker 3: Go back in and get these objects from each of
Speaker 3: the people in the elevator.
Speaker 2: Right, everyone that was there. You have to find one thing.
Speaker 2: So they found it was the hair for Sally.
Speaker 3: Shine, the handkerchief, handkerchief for the nanny, cbe brings the hat.
Speaker 4: C brings the hat.
Speaker 2: The locket was was Melaura Harden's actress. Yes, and the spectacles,
Speaker 2: the glass spectacles, glasses and the glasses for there. Now
Speaker 2: another question I have for you. So they mentioned that
Speaker 2: the hotel his grand his great grandfather was so freaked
Speaker 2: out by what happened he shut down the hotel. Yes,
Speaker 2: totally understandable. Five people did disappeared. It was hit by
Speaker 2: green lightning, including his son. His son, we've got to
Speaker 2: shut this place down. Did he shut it down that
Speaker 2: night without moving a single piece of luggage or furniture or.
Speaker 4: No investigation, nothing, just shut it down.
Speaker 2: Glasses are all in the same place. I mean, they
Speaker 2: didn't move a single thing. Shut it down.
Speaker 4: I know it was so.
Speaker 3: When they find the the bell hops with the luggage on.
Speaker 2: It, it's just it's just everybody out. We're shutting it
Speaker 2: down tonight at eleven o'clock.
Speaker 4: Yeah, everyone's out.
Speaker 2: We're not gonna look, we're not going to investigate. There's
Speaker 2: no police tape, there's no anything.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's no police tape. That's what kept bugging me.
Speaker 3: Where's the police tape? There had to have been some
Speaker 3: type of vem even across the doors of the elevator.
Speaker 4: There's been something.
Speaker 1: I kicked everyone out that night.
Speaker 2: They the cigars, pipes, everything left exactly as it was.
Speaker 2: Nobody touched anything, They didn't clean anything up. That was right,
Speaker 2: A little strange. But there is an interesting movie trope
Speaker 2: here that I think we should spend a little bit
Speaker 2: of time on because it's a very famous one, and
Speaker 2: it's called a mcguffin, and it was made famous by
Speaker 2: Alfred Hitchcock. Now, a mcguffin is an object or a
Speaker 2: device or event that's necessary to the plot and the motivation.
Speaker 2: It keeps the actors and the characters moving in the
Speaker 2: right direction, but at the end of the day, is insignificant,
Speaker 2: completely unimportant, and irrelevant to whatever's going on. And that's
Speaker 2: what these objects were at the end of the day.
Speaker 2: He really didn't need the much. She kind of uses
Speaker 2: them a little bit, but you don't really And she
Speaker 2: just wanted Sally's hair.
Speaker 1: That was the only one she cared about Sally's hair.
Speaker 1: But didn't she.
Speaker 2: Originally have Sally's hair, Yes, So then why do they
Speaker 2: have to get all the rest of them?
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I was really confused as far as you know that
Speaker 3: end part kind of was weird, right because she ends
Speaker 3: up before she had heads too, and you really everything
Speaker 3: has now come surface of who she is and all
Speaker 3: of that, and there's a moment where.
Speaker 4: They're in the apartment.
Speaker 3: And then like she's It was very it started to
Speaker 3: get muddled for me.
Speaker 4: You didn't things didn't seem completing.
Speaker 3: You know when you watch a movie, there's like completions
Speaker 3: of certain things.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they wrap up a storyline, then they move on
Speaker 2: and wrap there's certain.
Speaker 3: Things that complete, get completed, and that this didn't happen.
Speaker 3: This is another part of this movie that I was
Speaker 3: okay to move past some stuff, but then there was
Speaker 3: some stuff.
Speaker 4: Was like, wait, what happened to all the trinkets that
Speaker 4: they needed? Where do you go? Where are they? I
Speaker 4: don't see them displayed anywhere.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 4: It's just kind of it was a.
Speaker 3: Little it was fum yeah, loving finding out about this mcguffin.
Speaker 2: The mcguffin, Oh yeah, the mcguffin created by Alfred Hitchcock,
Speaker 2: very famous mystery.
Speaker 4: It is not an edible object.
Speaker 1: What it can be. It could be whatever you want,
Speaker 1: but that's yeah, it's the mcguffin.
Speaker 2: Nice you mentioned that you wanted to be kind of
Speaker 2: more scared and spooky and jumping and titillated while you
Speaker 2: were watching the film, right, But there were some scary
Speaker 2: moments inside when they got in. There were there any
Speaker 2: moments that made you either jump or that freaked out
Speaker 2: a little bit or were a little creepy, because I
Speaker 2: have one or two that are a little creepy.
Speaker 3: No, the things that did happen did lean me into
Speaker 3: recognizing like the director's work, the shaky you know ink
Speaker 3: thing and you know, the certain things that were kind
Speaker 3: of but the way the ghosts came out from the
Speaker 3: very beginning kind of shut the creepiness down for me.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, So the headless guy with the with the cleaver,
Speaker 2: none of that did anything for you.
Speaker 3: Well, wasn't headless because again I guess I just didn't
Speaker 3: prep myself for it being a Disney scary movie. It
Speaker 3: wasn't headless and gory. You shouldn't have a head right,
Speaker 3: do you know what I mean?
Speaker 4: It was just kind of.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, you know what the characters did after is
Speaker 3: what was like, are you kidding me? We're just gonna
Speaker 3: all right, We're gonna go back in days later, that
Speaker 3: whole thing. Going back into the house after you've seen
Speaker 3: this didn't seem like they were freaked out. They should
Speaker 3: have been freaked out. If these were ghosts, they should
Speaker 3: be losing their own heads about it, write their own mind.
Speaker 1: I don't disagree.
Speaker 2: I I though, have this thing with little kids singing
Speaker 2: eerie songs while they're dead. Okay, so like that again,
Speaker 2: going back to Nightmare nowm the street where the kids are
Speaker 2: jump roping and they're going one two friends, Yeah, coming
Speaker 2: for that still gives me chills. So when you first
Speaker 2: hear Sally Shine and there's the green shimmer and you
Speaker 2: kind of see her Ethereally and she's singing that stuff
Speaker 2: creeps me out.
Speaker 1: Little little kids singing creepy little songs. That's creepy.
Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, yeah, so cute she was.
Speaker 1: But she did. Oh man, it was that. Anytime you
Speaker 1: hear the little kids like hi behin, I'm dead, it's like,
Speaker 1: oh god, yeah, oh that freaks me out. So that
Speaker 1: stuff like that got me a little bit.
Speaker 4: The bats the Bats kind of was maybe a moment,
Speaker 4: did the bats?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 4: I don't.
Speaker 1: I'm not a big unless it's a really well timed one.
Speaker 2: The jump scares don't do it for much as much
Speaker 2: for me as a psychological scares. Okay, the psychological scares
Speaker 2: are the ones where because then I think about it
Speaker 2: and I dwell on it, and I'm like, is there
Speaker 2: a little creepy girl behind me singing right now?
Speaker 4: Overthink it? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Okay, so that's uh, that's a little weird.
Speaker 2: So finally it is revealed after all this that the
Speaker 2: nanny is not the witch who cursed the elevator, but
Speaker 2: it was Abigail, the older lady, and she's been living
Speaker 2: for sixty years in a mental hospital and has an
Speaker 2: entire trunk that you have to open up that's filled
Speaker 2: with like the weird altar kind of voodoo doll with
Speaker 2: the head snapped off.
Speaker 3: And ye like, oh my goodness, I know it was
Speaker 3: that was aggressive.
Speaker 4: Yeah, knowing that that the whole thing, it's not that
Speaker 4: to me. It was really aggressive for it to be
Speaker 4: her sister, right right.
Speaker 3: I just if she was a little girl that was
Speaker 3: tormented by her somehow, or like somebody who wasn't a
Speaker 3: family member.
Speaker 4: The aggression, yeah, coming from a.
Speaker 3: Family member was just wow, Abigail, I am so sorry.
Speaker 2: You wonder though, if there are brothers and sisters of
Speaker 2: seriously big famous child actors that grew up just so
Speaker 2: because I mean.
Speaker 1: You're a kid.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you're you know, you you're only seeing your
Speaker 2: sibling everyone adoring and loving and oh my god, looking
Speaker 2: fawning over and treating with such respect, and then you're
Speaker 2: just like the kid. I mean, I don't know why,
Speaker 2: because my brothers were older than me and we are
Speaker 2: still one hundred percent supportive, but something about that resonated
Speaker 2: with me, knowing that it's got to be hard to
Speaker 2: be the brother sister of, especially when you're little, little
Speaker 2: ten eleven years old, if somebody super famous.
Speaker 3: And there's not a big gap between them either. They
Speaker 3: seemed they were very close in age too, so you know,
Speaker 3: and you look, if you look back at like her
Speaker 3: dress compared.
Speaker 4: To Sally's dress that night, she's looking a little bit more,
Speaker 4: you know, rumpy looking.
Speaker 3: Yes, Sally's this adorable, pink, gorgeous little baby doll.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, and she's just walking in and people and
Speaker 2: she's got a big smile and people are taking pictures,
Speaker 2: and so that resonated with me also because I know
Speaker 2: a lot of the times when kids are child actors
Speaker 2: of that age, very rarely does one of them go
Speaker 2: in and get recognized. You bring the mom brings in
Speaker 2: two or three of her kids. So this is in
Speaker 2: my head, it's like they both went to their first
Speaker 2: manager or agent and Sally you know, erupted and oh man,
Speaker 2: she was perfect and we want her, and the other
Speaker 2: sister was left behind.
Speaker 1: So I got a whole backstory.
Speaker 4: Yes, said she couldn't sing, she could.
Speaker 1: Put it dance. Yeah, that really resonated with me.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but was that Sally's fault Abigail?
Speaker 1: Of course not, but it was you don't look at
Speaker 1: that when you're eleven years old.
Speaker 2: You just look at the fact that your mother is
Speaker 2: dressing one kid like she's a super stronging other kid
Speaker 2: like she's waiting in line for bread, like it just
Speaker 2: it does. It looks very strange. So yeah, it was
Speaker 2: also like black, she was like more black and white,
Speaker 2: but they really Yeah, I don't know why that. The
Speaker 2: whole idea of the sister holding that much of a
Speaker 2: grudge kind of resonated with me. And maybe it's because
Speaker 2: I saw that.
Speaker 4: The doll was a little bit of a o for
Speaker 4: me though.
Speaker 1: Because the doll was the head was removed, it would
Speaker 1: like it.
Speaker 4: Was still on just flop back.
Speaker 3: That was like, oh gross, Like super, you've got issues Abby.
Speaker 2: I'd also like to point out that this is now
Speaker 2: the second time in this film where it's just okay
Speaker 2: to let somebody else into your apartment.
Speaker 4: Okay, yes, this is part of one of my Serena season.
Speaker 3: Obviously, I knew you'd get this because it just made
Speaker 3: absolutely zero sense and just lets her in. She's being
Speaker 3: very clear, she does not know Abigail.
Speaker 4: She's she's stock.
Speaker 3: She's learning things from this man and it's a reporter
Speaker 3: and as a reporter, and and then they go to
Speaker 3: a flash type situation or there they somehow are out
Speaker 3: of it, and I think we go to a different
Speaker 3: scene and when then she we come back to the
Speaker 3: the uh you know facility that Abigail lives in.
Speaker 4: She's in the room by herself.
Speaker 3: The guy just left and then comes storming in and
Speaker 3: it's like, excuse me, what are you doing?
Speaker 4: It's like, what do you gonna do right now?
Speaker 1: Sir?
Speaker 4: I'm gonna look around everywhere.
Speaker 3: You've given me full rain access to this apartment a
Speaker 3: person that you know, I'm doing a report on.
Speaker 4: What do you think I'm gonna do?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 4: It was very you know, I'm gonna deny everything.
Speaker 1: I'm going to deny it, and then I'm going to
Speaker 1: have you arrested.
Speaker 4: And then I'm going to have you arrested. Can you
Speaker 4: have her arrested when you open the door, think.
Speaker 1: If somebody takes the key and lets you in.
Speaker 3: Yeah, But then then she ends up with the items
Speaker 3: back at Buzz's apartment.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the guy takes the papers from her, but she
Speaker 2: manages to get the voodoo doll out and the doll.
Speaker 4: How did she get the doll?
Speaker 1: She threw it in the bag.
Speaker 2: I actually saw her because I rewound it and you
Speaker 2: can actually see her put the doll in the back.
Speaker 4: I watched it twice and didn't see it.
Speaker 1: I thought the same thing. You see her shoved stuff
Speaker 1: in her bag.
Speaker 2: But she's about to then do the papers after and
Speaker 2: he grabs the papers from her.
Speaker 4: Got it?
Speaker 1: Okay? All right?
Speaker 2: And then of course we get the big m night
Speaker 2: shamaam Dingong moment where all of a sudden you find
Speaker 2: out she's you know, it's not the nanny, Abigail's the witch.
Speaker 2: She wants to reinstate the curse of sixty years because
Speaker 2: apparently just being dead isn't enough for her.
Speaker 4: I guess not. She wants to start it over because.
Speaker 2: She want What we find out is the original spell
Speaker 2: was supposed to make the elevator crash, right. They weren't
Speaker 2: supposed to disappear, they were supposed to crash, So yes,
Speaker 2: you were still supposed she was supposed to die. But
Speaker 2: she's upset that she's made her sister a legend, right,
Speaker 2: so now she wants to crash the elevator again to
Speaker 2: finish what she started. Then to kill her ghost.
Speaker 1: Yes, I guess.
Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know how that was going
Speaker 3: to make it better, but I guess that's what she
Speaker 3: needed to do.
Speaker 2: Or maybe she then is trying to get her to
Speaker 2: a deeper circle of torment and pain because the one
Speaker 2: she thought she put her in wasn't good enough.
Speaker 4: She makes a comment that she says she's everywhere.
Speaker 3: So then I was trying to figure out, do you
Speaker 3: mean she's showing up in.
Speaker 4: Your facility that you live in? Where do you need me?
Speaker 4: But she's everywhere? Was it was her fame?
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's James Dean, She's every She's Marilyn Roe, she's everywhere.
Speaker 1: So what thinking she was gonna kill her and get
Speaker 1: rid of her.
Speaker 2: Instead, what she did was make her eternal, okay, and
Speaker 2: so it's the opposite of what she actually wanted to happen.
Speaker 1: So now she's got to go and kill.
Speaker 4: Her again, kill her ghost.
Speaker 3: I guess the best best part because you know she's creepy,
Speaker 3: and she kind of obviously gets creepier and creepier when
Speaker 3: she's out by the gate and she's like Abigail. And
Speaker 3: then my favorite part of her this whole movie was
Speaker 3: when she has the cape on and she's walking and then.
Speaker 4: It's like her over the shoulder is like raw.
Speaker 3: That was the only part where I'm like, whoa, Okay,
Speaker 3: now this is good because she's finally at that creeper
Speaker 3: level that is actually scary. I could actually get nervous
Speaker 3: in the dark thinking about Abigail in that moment.
Speaker 2: Now here's my question for you, And you know Disney
Speaker 2: better than I do, and I think some of our
Speaker 2: producers may need to China, okay, were they Isn't there
Speaker 2: a famous scene from I think it's Cinderella or Snow White,
Speaker 2: Snow White one with the apple right, Yes, isn't there
Speaker 2: a famous scene where the witch is in the hood and.
Speaker 1: Turns creepily towards the camera.
Speaker 4: Yes, that's snow white.
Speaker 1: Do you think that's what they were trying to do
Speaker 1: with that shot?
Speaker 4: Oh, that's a good that's good will.
Speaker 1: That's what I thought. When I saw it. I was like, Oh,
Speaker 1: that's a that's an easter egg. That's a Disney Easter egg. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that is I thought that's what it was.
Speaker 3: So old Lady in the Hood, although she's very cute,
Speaker 3: she's still a cute old lady, so she's not the
Speaker 3: Witch of snow White.
Speaker 4: But that's a good one. I love that one.
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's what they're doing.
Speaker 4: Oh if it's not, let's put that out into the.
Speaker 1: All right, go get that going. And now, of course
Speaker 1: we they they've got to tie in the ride. So
Speaker 1: we end the movie. It's modern day. Well we amidst
Speaker 1: the chaos.
Speaker 2: The spell has been cast, the elevators crashed down, but
Speaker 2: they switch it because she's able to reverse the spell,
Speaker 2: because the only thing that could stop the spell is
Speaker 2: its opposite, which was her Sally forgiving, and it all works.
Speaker 2: We end the movie modern day. You know, the the
Speaker 2: ghosts finally make to heaven. I imagine is where they
Speaker 2: want to be. The Abigail dies too. I guess Abigail dies.
Speaker 4: That was not something I was expecting me all.
Speaker 2: I thought it'd be like, I'll see you when you
Speaker 2: get here, But no, they go and grab Abigail too.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I kept.
Speaker 3: Thinking she was gonna join somehow in not as a
Speaker 3: little girl.
Speaker 2: Not.
Speaker 3: Actually, now Abigail is also gone. That's a lot of
Speaker 3: death in a disney.
Speaker 2: They'll they're all dead, they and that was the big
Speaker 2: payoff at the end is they died at the beginning,
Speaker 2: but at the end they got to die again.
Speaker 4: We get an engagement. We always love engagements.
Speaker 1: I like, I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 2: I got a little teared up towards the end where
Speaker 2: everybody's filling their final wish. You know that Nanny gets
Speaker 2: her to her parents. She gets to see her parents,
Speaker 2: She gets to sing her song. Laura Harden gets to
Speaker 2: sing her song, and they get engaged.
Speaker 4: The bell hop gets to go back to his.
Speaker 2: Dad and say, hey, why am I still a bell hop?
Speaker 2: I'm thirty five and have children. So yes, I liked
Speaker 2: this movie. I didn't love it, but I certainly liked it.
Speaker 2: But I'd like to see what other people think about
Speaker 2: this movie. And as you know, every week we do
Speaker 2: our real reviews where we do one five star and
Speaker 2: one one star. I think last week you did the
Speaker 2: one star. Is that correct?
Speaker 4: Yes, I'll do the five star.
Speaker 3: I really want to hear you read this this one star.
Speaker 3: It's pretty good, all right, But starting off with the
Speaker 3: five star from Mickey Bhaer two to one. I love
Speaker 3: this movie. I went on the ride in Walt Disney
Speaker 3: World when.
Speaker 4: I was five.
Speaker 3: Though I didn't like the ride too much, I loved
Speaker 3: the movie. It is scary in some parts, especially when
Speaker 3: they play eerie music for the little kids and people
Speaker 3: that haven't seen the movie before, but it's very entertaining
Speaker 3: and it was a good plot twist in the end.
Speaker 1: All Right, that's a solid review.
Speaker 2: Yes, you know, I have the one star, which is
Speaker 2: not as solid a review.
Speaker 1: This is from VALVANTI.
Speaker 2: I think I'm saying the name right, and I'm going
Speaker 2: to read this with the emphasis the way that they
Speaker 2: wanted it, with the exclamation points. So Tower of Terror
Speaker 2: ruined Steve Gutenberg's career. As I struggled to finish this movie,
Speaker 2: I realized that this entire film was to promote the
Speaker 2: ride Tower of Terror in a long line of attraction
Speaker 2: theme park stunts. Obviously, I never understood why any type
Speaker 2: of actor would ever choose such a lousy way to
Speaker 2: ruin their career by making a horrible sellout decision. And
Speaker 2: my grandma said that this movie was absolutely horrible.
Speaker 1: About that's what it is.
Speaker 2: It's like if my grandmother doesn't like it, at least
Speaker 2: Dunce's career wasn't completely halted by an incredibly wretched acting
Speaker 2: and corporate American sellout. That's I mean, Dad, that even
Speaker 2: my grandma harsh, harsh.
Speaker 3: Because he's not even just talking about the movie. He's
Speaker 3: talking about the failing of the career.
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I know. And let's be honest, Steve
Speaker 1: Gutenberg was a little big in this movie.
Speaker 2: I think he suffered a little bit from what I
Speaker 2: call Disney Itis, which is some actors get into Disney
Speaker 2: movies and feel like they have to ham it up
Speaker 2: a bit more than they would play it real. So
Speaker 2: maybe not the best it's not Cocoon, it's not his
Speaker 2: his you know, Steve Gutenberg's best performance, but it's he'sn't
Speaker 2: a Disney movie.
Speaker 3: That was yikes, I know, I that made me feel
Speaker 3: so bad for Steve because it.
Speaker 2: Was not.
Speaker 4: Geez I just I mean, that was harsh.
Speaker 3: That guy never watches anything I ever do because or
Speaker 3: his grandma Gee and Bash.
Speaker 4: To the worst extent. That was so harsh.
Speaker 2: Let's do our other wonderful thing we do every week,
Speaker 2: which is our three and a half facts. As you know,
Speaker 2: this is three facts that we know for a fact
Speaker 2: or fact and one fact that we're heard about that's
Speaker 2: more of a rumor and we're not entirely sure, so
Speaker 2: we're putting it out there more as a rumor possibly
Speaker 2: as well, but it could be real. Yeah, according to
Speaker 2: the Internet machine, what do you got? Why don't you
Speaker 2: give it a start? With our first all right?
Speaker 3: Before Disney landed on twilight Zone theme for the ride,
Speaker 3: some other ideas were thrown around a ride based on
Speaker 3: Stephen King's novel, a Vincent Price Goes Tour, a mel
Speaker 3: Brooks narrated Haunted Honeymoon concept, and even an awards honoring
Speaker 3: classic movie monsters like Godzilla, hosted by Eddie Murphy and Alvira.
Speaker 1: Okay, well, I gotta be honest.
Speaker 4: I'm glad they went with twilight Zone.
Speaker 2: I am too, But at the end of the day.
Speaker 2: Knowing Disney they would have hit it out of the
Speaker 2: park with whatever. I mean, can you imagine? I think
Speaker 2: Stephen King novels would have just been too scary.
Speaker 4: Right, How would they really Disney fy that?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you're waiting in line, and while you're waiting
Speaker 2: in line, you're walking through the pet cemetery and the
Speaker 2: it clowns that, I mean, kids are going to be
Speaker 2: losing it.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I couldn't do that.
Speaker 2: Our number two fact is, though this was the first
Speaker 2: movie based on any ride at Disneyland, it wasn't the
Speaker 2: first thing filmed for Tower of Terror. Legendary director Joe
Speaker 2: Dante filmed the pre ride short film that was shown
Speaker 2: to theme park guests in line, and it told the
Speaker 2: exact same backstory as the movie, and even still starred
Speaker 2: Lindsay Ridgeway as Sally Shine, who'd later reclaimed the role
Speaker 2: for the movie. Now this amazed me for a number
Speaker 2: of reasons when we talked about how great Lindsay was.
Speaker 2: But little kids grow up really fast. So if you
Speaker 2: go and you watch the ride, she's definitely younger. But
Speaker 2: to be able to still play the same role three
Speaker 2: years later, yes, it was pretty amazing to me because
Speaker 2: you she was the eerie little girl who would wave
Speaker 2: to you right as the thing would drop, and she
Speaker 2: didn't look that different in the movie, and.
Speaker 3: It was no years later, no three years later, especially
Speaker 3: around that age, how much you.
Speaker 1: Definitely grow a lot, you know, and quickly.
Speaker 3: And very fast. Yeah, I mean to be honest, I
Speaker 3: didn't grow that much. Ever, No, I guess, Lindsay and
Speaker 3: I share that in time. I guess that's fair enough.
Speaker 1: She might not.
Speaker 4: She's probably not six two now, she's not.
Speaker 1: She's not.
Speaker 2: She is, however, a fitness instructor and just in amazing shape,
Speaker 2: but she's still a very little girl.
Speaker 4: Oh geez right.
Speaker 3: The third one I love because it's something you know,
Speaker 3: Sabrina Sea's esque. So I'm excited to do this one.
Speaker 3: A mistake in the movie. In the opening nineteen thirty
Speaker 3: nine flashback scene, when the hotel is struck by lightning,
Speaker 3: you see the famous Capitol Records Building in the background.
Speaker 3: But the Capitol Records Building was not completed until nineteen
Speaker 3: fifty six, well past the day of this incident.
Speaker 1: So there you go. That is a prayer mistake.
Speaker 4: Cool to know.
Speaker 2: Did not digitize out the Capitol Records Building, which is
Speaker 2: right there in the background. Right here's Star Halffact, which
Speaker 2: is so cool, and I mean, I'm hoping it's true,
Speaker 2: But then you figure out where it's going to go
Speaker 2: from there. So a reboot of Tower Terror, a new
Speaker 2: movie starring and produced by Scarlett Johansson, has been on
Speaker 2: the docket for Disney Now for a few years, with
Speaker 2: Pixar writer Josh Cooley attached, But with the recent lawsuit
Speaker 2: between the studio and Scarlet about the release of Black
Speaker 2: Widow being settled for forty million bucks, nice little payday,
Speaker 2: its future is still up in the air, so we
Speaker 2: have no idea if it is or isn't happening.
Speaker 1: And I would think that now that they but again,
Speaker 1: who knows.
Speaker 2: I was gonna say now that they switched the Tower
Speaker 2: of Terror in California, at least I think it's still
Speaker 2: Tower of Terror in Florida, yes, But now that they
Speaker 2: switched it to Guardians in LA who knows if a new.
Speaker 3: Generation here on this West coast side doesn't really know
Speaker 3: what Tower of Ear is because it's been Guardians for
Speaker 3: a while.
Speaker 1: Now while now yeah, yeah, so yeah, very strange, But I'd.
Speaker 3: Be interested in to know why Scarlett would want to
Speaker 3: produce this remake.
Speaker 2: Maybe this was one of her favorite movies growing up.
Speaker 2: I mean too, you never know. I think that's cool.
Speaker 4: Yeah, doing a reboot's awesome.
Speaker 2: We figured as we were talking about something like The
Speaker 2: Tower of Terror, which of course was, as we said
Speaker 2: at the beginning, the very first ever movie that was
Speaker 2: based on a ride and not the other way around,
Speaker 2: we thought we would talk to a little bit about
Speaker 2: all the Disney rides that inspired movies that Disney has
Speaker 2: made since The.
Speaker 1: Tower of Terror.
Speaker 2: Mm hmmm, because now it's happened more right, So the
Speaker 2: Haunted Mansion twice.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so we've seen those. Tomorrowland.
Speaker 4: I even't seen tomorrow Land.
Speaker 1: Tomorrowland is uh George Clooney, Yeah.
Speaker 4: I haven't seen that.
Speaker 2: Can you believe that? It's Actually it's pretty good. It's
Speaker 2: very clever. It's a really expensive movie. This is not
Speaker 2: a Wonderful World at Disney movie. I mean they are
Speaker 2: going to going to Tomorrowland. It's really really cool the
Speaker 2: way that they do it. George Clooney is always great.
Speaker 2: Jungle Cruise, which I haven't seen. Did you see that one?
Speaker 4: No? Yes, yes, the new one. It's newer age yeah,
Speaker 4: I did.
Speaker 1: It's is that the rock?
Speaker 4: Yes, it's an Emily right, it's so good. I loved it.
Speaker 1: Is it really well? I have not seen Jungle Cruise yet.
Speaker 3: Yes, I thought there'd probably be another one because I
Speaker 3: really liked it.
Speaker 2: Really Okay, I'm gonna have to check that out. The
Speaker 2: Country Bears, I did not know that.
Speaker 3: I didn't know there was a movie or anything on
Speaker 3: the Country Bears.
Speaker 1: I think I've seen the Country Bear Jamboree.
Speaker 3: I know what area of Disneyland it used to because
Speaker 3: it's gone now, is it the Witty the Pooh Ride.
Speaker 4: Is in that area?
Speaker 3: Now that whole area is not there over by Splash
Speaker 3: Mountain at Disneyland.
Speaker 2: Do you think there's ever going to be a lallapalooza
Speaker 2: type tour with all of these old animatronic bands where
Speaker 2: it's going to be like the Country Bear Jamboree is
Speaker 2: going to be opening for the band that was always
Speaker 2: at Chuck E Cheese, you know, like, oh man, I've
Speaker 2: gotten rid.
Speaker 4: Of all those Chucky Jeeze doesn't even really have that anymore.
Speaker 4: The mouse comes out. It's got what I'm.
Speaker 2: Saying, So all these old bands are going to get
Speaker 2: together into a Festival, the Animatronic Festival.
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 3: Would go to it because none of the kids nowadays
Speaker 3: know anything about iould just.
Speaker 1: For the comedy.
Speaker 2: And if you can get that many people, that many
Speaker 2: people to Firefest, you can get people to this. And
Speaker 2: of course the biggest one of all time by far
Speaker 2: is Pirates of the Caribbean.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So now my question for you is, of all the
Speaker 2: rides that are out there that they haven't made a
Speaker 2: movie on, what would you pick to do the next movie?
Speaker 3: Okay, so there's not a lot of rides that aren't
Speaker 3: connected to move even I mean, well, Splash Mountain was
Speaker 3: an old movie. They're redoing that for Princess Frog.
Speaker 1: Right, okay with Tiana. Yeah.
Speaker 3: At Disneyland, Splash Mountain is under construction right now.
Speaker 2: To do parks closed. Moose out front should have told you, yeah, yep,
Speaker 2: so there's that.
Speaker 4: You've got big Thunder.
Speaker 1: I'd go big Thunder.
Speaker 4: I think big Thunder.
Speaker 3: I mean it's either that Space Mountain or the Matter Horn.
Speaker 4: That's not a movie, right, yeah.
Speaker 2: One with the new land they have at Disney. Have
Speaker 2: you heard of this Star Wars That could be a
Speaker 2: good movie. Yeah, I see, somehow a Backrey big Land.
Speaker 1: So maybe I think they could do it.
Speaker 4: Sure a few people will go and watch a movie
Speaker 4: like that.
Speaker 1: A Big Thunder Mountain, Big Thunder Mountains.
Speaker 3: Let's go Western style, That's what I'm saying, and get
Speaker 3: a bunch of country artists involved, or or we.
Speaker 1: Could not have country music either one, but we could.
Speaker 3: I'm always down for musical Will it has show?
Speaker 2: God, you're combining two of my favorite things, country and musicals. No, somebody,
Speaker 2: a kid and his family gets on a small roller
Speaker 2: coaster and somehow something happens in the ride and they're
Speaker 2: transported back to the wild West. Ooh, I love and
Speaker 2: maybe the family has to rebuild the roller coaster back
Speaker 2: in the day or something like that. And it's Big
Speaker 2: Thunder Mountain. So I think that could. By the way,
Speaker 2: that's trademarked Bobby. Yeah, Bobby Industries to go basical rewind
Speaker 2: Industries as a trademark, Ricky Bobby.
Speaker 1: So that's it.
Speaker 2: I mean, I want to get into Sabrina Seas right
Speaker 2: now because I'm dying to know what.
Speaker 1: You saw in this movie.
Speaker 2: And then we got to rate it, and I know
Speaker 2: the rating system is going to be a little different
Speaker 2: on this one.
Speaker 1: So go ahead.
Speaker 3: Okay, So first, the big thing I really wanted to
Speaker 3: highlight was.
Speaker 4: The music of this movie.
Speaker 3: I really did love it, and you know, I'm like
Speaker 3: so driven by music.
Speaker 4: The very first.
Speaker 3: Scene is, Yeah, what I wish I lived in just
Speaker 3: that swing dancing big band, you know, just the the
Speaker 3: cocktails and the coops.
Speaker 4: I mean, I just I loved everything.
Speaker 3: I loved their their costuming and the grandness of what
Speaker 3: you felt like it would be at that big you know,
Speaker 3: because it's a real place in Hollywood right this.
Speaker 4: You know, it is an actual building that you drive by.
Speaker 3: It's easy to drive by, and it's like old Hollywood,
Speaker 3: you know. I thinking Marilyn Monroe would be in the
Speaker 3: corner and you know, all that kind of stuff.
Speaker 4: So that was my thing. I loved.
Speaker 3: The music was awesome right from the beginning, and then
Speaker 3: the big things that I kept seeing, like was just
Speaker 3: the movements of music with that would bring the characters
Speaker 3: in and that scary vibe.
Speaker 4: Again, I wasn't terrified through this movie.
Speaker 3: But I loved the music and I loved like how
Speaker 3: you could feel the goosebumps starting to come by just
Speaker 3: the score alone. Yeah, So that was like my favorite
Speaker 3: aspect of this movie. I thought that, And it was
Speaker 3: all throughout the whole movie when there was something that
Speaker 3: made sense, you know, even when she went back home
Speaker 3: and she's getting her way with her mom, while her
Speaker 3: mom's planting the tree to get to go with her
Speaker 3: uncle again.
Speaker 4: All of it.
Speaker 3: The music just really struck me. I don't know why
Speaker 3: I really loved it.
Speaker 1: I agree, I thought it was great.
Speaker 3: The other thing I started having to just note down
Speaker 3: because there was just so many how bad of an
Speaker 3: uncle this guy was.
Speaker 4: He was such a bad.
Speaker 3: And I think maybe by the time the couch scene happened,
Speaker 3: he had been such a bad uncle so many times
Speaker 3: that it was really unnerving that he would be put
Speaker 3: in the opportunity to even watch her overnight. Yeah saying
Speaker 3: anything weird creepy, but that he was just really not
Speaker 3: mindful of being an adult in the situation. One of
Speaker 3: the first things is he's leaves and he leaves her
Speaker 3: with with Abigail, Yeah, in her apartment.
Speaker 4: He just goests and leaves her.
Speaker 1: Well, in all fairness, they knew her for almost ten minutes.
Speaker 4: Right ten minutes exactly.
Speaker 3: He leaving her in the front while he has this
Speaker 3: like kind of romantic thing with the ghost a little
Speaker 3: bit like he starts kind of falling in love with
Speaker 3: the ghost.
Speaker 4: Romantic and yeah, that part was compact.
Speaker 1: I didn't even want touch on all.
Speaker 3: Anyway, He left her in front of this haunted place,
Speaker 3: this actual haunted that he saw.
Speaker 4: He'd already seen stuff.
Speaker 1: They know that there's ghosts in there.
Speaker 4: He leaves her in the front door. The door's wide open,
Speaker 4: he leaves her.
Speaker 3: He just continued to do that, and with the ghosts,
Speaker 3: he just like he just didn't really care about his niece.
Speaker 3: And that was just so it started to irritate me.
Speaker 3: She's your responsibility more. Will never go with somebody like.
Speaker 1: Gotta get the story, Gotta get.
Speaker 4: The story, gotta get the story.
Speaker 3: So his bad behavior in bad adulting was one of
Speaker 3: the most jarring Sabrina sees for me. I just started
Speaker 3: writing down there's a fun more, but we've gone through
Speaker 3: so many of them, it's just kind of kind of insane.
Speaker 3: And then the last thing I didn't really understand what
Speaker 3: the love connection or not love connection between him and
Speaker 3: his reporter friend.
Speaker 1: They was none kind of well.
Speaker 3: They mentioned in the beginning that there was supposed to
Speaker 3: be a date, right and then and she's irritated, But
Speaker 3: you can't tell if she's irritated because he screwed her
Speaker 3: over and dates situations, or if she's just still so
Speaker 3: disappointed in him for not fact like fact checking.
Speaker 1: They were exes.
Speaker 2: I think they alluded to the fact that they had dated.
Speaker 2: And then there was a weird thing where he goes
Speaker 2: in and says, I've got this story. She says, I
Speaker 2: don't want the story. He turns and lee and then
Speaker 2: comes back and says he wants to get.
Speaker 1: Lobster with her. Yes, she plays. It was very.
Speaker 3: Weird, and there was no Again, this is one of
Speaker 3: the things that just there was no completion. There was
Speaker 3: no They're either just going to be friends or they're
Speaker 3: gonna go ahead and give it another go.
Speaker 4: And then it's strange to me.
Speaker 1: Flirts with Melaura Harden and she floats back.
Speaker 4: He definitely flirts with her. He is trying to get
Speaker 4: a date with her, no.
Speaker 2: Problem, Yeah, talking about being ghosted, thank you, So yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean, come up. But then she send me people's
Speaker 2: kisses them at the end like out of nowhere, just
Speaker 2: kisses the grass.
Speaker 3: Yes, like it just kind of I don't know, it
Speaker 3: just it was a little. That relationship was a little
Speaker 3: wonky to me, didn't make sense.
Speaker 1: All the love story aspects were very because.
Speaker 3: You didn't really know that the actor I wouldn't say
Speaker 3: the same thing that they were together.
Speaker 4: You did it.
Speaker 1: It was I did.
Speaker 3: And again another part of the creepy uncle situation, you
Speaker 3: didn't realize they were, like I feel they should have
Speaker 3: established that this was an uncle niece earlier than they did.
Speaker 3: It took a little too long for them to say
Speaker 3: uncle whatever, or.
Speaker 1: My uncle it was.
Speaker 2: And they had to keep him the uncle because he
Speaker 2: would have been such a bad father that you know
Speaker 2: what I mean. It's like, let's make him the uncle.
Speaker 2: At least there's a chance where it's not his kid.
Speaker 2: It's like, okay, you're not actually my responsibility.
Speaker 4: Right, exactly right?
Speaker 2: Yeah, So okay. I liked the movie. I didn't love
Speaker 2: the movie, but I certainly liked it. It was it was enjoyable.
Speaker 2: But it was definitely interesting to see the difference between
Speaker 2: A Wonderful World of Disney and a dcom because they
Speaker 2: are very different. Not so much My Date with the
Speaker 2: President's Daughter and some of the dcoms, those were more similar,
Speaker 2: but this very much bigger actors based on the adults
Speaker 2: bigger budget you're.
Speaker 3: You're chiming into that based on adults is just a
Speaker 3: huge difference for sure.
Speaker 1: Oh way different, way different. Yeah, So why don't we, uh,
Speaker 1: why don't we rate this movie? The question is.
Speaker 4: Rate by what?
Speaker 1: Exactly?
Speaker 2: By how many jealousies sons of bell hops wrongly accused nanny?
Speaker 1: I would instead of ghost moans?
Speaker 2: How about creepy little girl moans inappropriate uncles?
Speaker 1: How many?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 1: What do we want to we can't do?
Speaker 4: To say that one putting your foot down?
Speaker 1: I can't do that, Okay, fair enough to do that one?
Speaker 2: What do you got?
Speaker 1: I'm gonna let you pick.
Speaker 4: I think we'll do creepy little girl moans? Okay, creepy
Speaker 4: little girl ghost modes? All right?
Speaker 2: So out of ten one being the worst and ten
Speaker 2: being the best, how many creepy little girl moans do
Speaker 2: you give this movie?
Speaker 3: I think I'm gonna just get RM for this, but
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with the six point five cepy little
Speaker 3: girl ghost mons.
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, I uh, I'm not gonna be too far
Speaker 2: away from you.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna give it a seven. Okay seven?
Speaker 2: Creepy little girl Ghost moans, And I'm gonna give it
Speaker 2: a seven because, uh, it was it was big swinging
Speaker 2: for the fences with Wonderful of the Disney. It changed
Speaker 2: the ballgame when it came to Disney Park rides and
Speaker 2: things like that. And we talked about DJ McHale coming
Speaker 2: on to direct, who was doing Are You Afraid of
Speaker 2: the Dark? And this movie is the perfect example of
Speaker 2: how difficult it is to ride that line between spooky
Speaker 2: and scary for younger people.
Speaker 4: For a younger audience, because you.
Speaker 2: Can't go saw gory, creepy, oh my god, somebody's got
Speaker 2: razor blades on their fingers or creepy teeth like in it.
Speaker 2: You have to ride that line between you can kind
Speaker 2: of see where the ghosts are coming from and things
Speaker 2: are shaking and it's and it's done with music and
Speaker 2: stuff like that.
Speaker 1: So because that's such a difficult.
Speaker 2: Line and because DJ McHale is a master at it,
Speaker 2: I'm going to stick with seven.
Speaker 1: And I think that's yeah, I think that's song.
Speaker 3: I I this was a movie for me. I couldn't
Speaker 3: shut off the way we talked about and just let
Speaker 3: it let myself enjoy it.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 4: I feel like I.
Speaker 3: Have probably because of the genre that it was in,
Speaker 3: you know, the genre that I've I want.
