1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:02,680
Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome back to movie Mike's movie podcast. I

2
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:04,280
Speaker 1: am your host Movie Mike. Today I want to share

3
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:07,360
Speaker 1: with you what I believe to be the top five

4
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:11,239
Speaker 1: years in movie history and my top five movies from

5
00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:14,080
Speaker 1: each of those years. In the movie review, it's the

6
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:16,400
Speaker 1: film I've been foaming at the mouth to talk about.

7
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:19,439
Speaker 1: I'll give my spoiler free review, very careful to be

8
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:23,239
Speaker 1: spoiler free thoughts on weapons and in the trailer park

9
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:26,800
Speaker 1: we'll be talking about Predator bad Lands, which looks awesome

10
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:29,200
Speaker 1: to me. This movie came out of nowhere and I

11
00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 1: can't wait to see it. So thank you for being here,

12
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 1: thank you for being subscribed, shout out to the Monday

13
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:37,560
Speaker 1: Morning Movie crew. And now let's talk movies from the

14
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:42,480
Speaker 1: Nustville Podcast network and this is movie Mike Movie Podcast.

15
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:44,840
Speaker 1: As I put together a list of what I believe

16
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,240
Speaker 1: to be the top five years in movie history, meaning

17
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,479
Speaker 1: if I could only keep one year worth of movies,

18
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 1: what years would I keep? And obviously it's going to

19
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 1: be rooted in the years that I was alive I

20
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 1: was born in nineteen ninety one have been really hard

21
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,639
Speaker 1: for me and I probably would have not been truthful

22
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 1: to myself that I would have went back to the seventies,

23
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,960
Speaker 1: it went back to like the golden age of Hollywood.

24
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:12,200
Speaker 1: I just feel like that wouldn't be authentically me. So

25
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 1: even though I considered those years, I just couldn't bring

26
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,880
Speaker 1: myself to put those on this list. Even though there

27
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 1: are some historic years. But that being said, I still

28
00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 1: don't feel like these other years that came before it

29
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 1: are even close to these years. Let's get right into

30
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,560
Speaker 1: the list. At number five, I have twenty fourteen. And

31
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: why twenty fourteen is so important to me? This was

32
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: an era for me where I watched so many movies

33
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 1: on Blu Ray. To me, I associate twenty fourteen with

34
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 1: being my year of the Blu Ray, and it was

35
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:46,480
Speaker 1: highly influential on the red Box, which is now gone.

36
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,520
Speaker 1: What would happen with red Box? Oh? Man? It just

37
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 1: kind of sent there are no physical places to go

38
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 1: get movies like this anymore. It's all gone, it's all streaming.

39
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 1: But I was never a big Blockbuster kid because my

40
00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 1: parents didn't want to pay for a membership. We also

41
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 1: didn't want to deal with late fees. But when I

42
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 1: was an adult in college in twenty fourteen, I would

43
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 1: walk to the seven eleven to get some snacks, and

44
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:10,120
Speaker 1: I'd always grab a red Box movie, or if I

45
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,519
Speaker 1: was going to the grocery store, shout out to HGB

46
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 1: in Texas, I would get a red Box movie. They

47
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 1: always had the latest ones. And it was so easy

48
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,799
Speaker 1: because for me, being a person with social anxiety, worst

49
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,520
Speaker 1: thing you could possibly make me do is call somebody

50
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 1: on the phone, like I would never order pizza as

51
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,200
Speaker 1: a kid. Oh, whenever that all went to online, that

52
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 1: was just like a dream for me. And the great

53
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 1: thing about the red Box is you don't have to

54
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: talk to anybody. You just go up to the kiosk

55
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 1: find which movie or even video game you wanted to rent.

56
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: And I just have so many great memories of renting

57
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 1: red Box movies. In twenty fourteen, my top five movies

58
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 1: of the year, which I all watched from red Box

59
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 1: except for maybe the ones that came out later in

60
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:56,359
Speaker 1: the year. But at number five I have Whiplash, fantastic movie.

61
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 1: Who knew you could make a movie about drumming be

62
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:04,320
Speaker 1: so hence filled great performances from JK. Simmons and Miles Taylor.

63
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 1: Fantastic movie. Next best drumming movie would probably be The

64
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 1: Sound of Metal, but I was way later. At number four,

65
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 1: I have Fury, which is my favorite war movie of

66
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,960
Speaker 1: all time, Brad Pitt Shila buff. I just love the

67
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,800
Speaker 1: greediness of that movie. And after watching that movie in

68
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 1: twenty fourteen, I wanted Brad Pitt's haircut, even though couldn't

69
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,359
Speaker 1: pull it off, and really it probably looks so good

70
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 1: in him because he is so good looking. At number three,

71
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,919
Speaker 1: I have Nightcrawler, which is the best Jake Gyllenhall movie

72
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 1: of all time. Blazy guy trying to make money by

73
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 1: covering crime scenes and then he gets a little bit

74
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 1: too into it, keeps trying to get the bloodiest shot

75
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 1: because blood cells on the news, so he keeps taking

76
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 1: it a step further and further and then does some

77
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: really unethical things. A fantastic movie. And then at number two,

78
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,320
Speaker 1: I have Guardians of the Galaxy, which when this movie

79
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 1: came out in twenty fourteen, it shook up Marvel a

80
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 1: little bit, which was really just being super established obviously

81
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 1: with two thousand and being the first Marvel movie. But

82
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: in twenty fourteen, this was like, Okay, we have something

83
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 1: different here, and it just changed the game. James Gunn

84
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 1: started to become dominant in the comic book movie world.

85
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: But at number one, my favorite movie from twenty fourteen

86
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,599
Speaker 1: is Interstellar. I did see it's coming out later this

87
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,119
Speaker 1: year in Imax, and that would be a real treat

88
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 1: because this is one I didn't watch in theaters. I

89
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: watch it on red Box, and obviously with anything Christopher Nolan,

90
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 1: seeing it on the big screen you get that full effect.

91
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:31,479
Speaker 1: But some other notable movies from twenty fourteen, you have

92
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 1: John Wick The Amazing Spider Man two, which back on

93
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: Spider Man Day, we had the first look at Tom

94
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 1: Hollins's new Spider Man suit and it looks so good.

95
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: It kind of looks a little bit of what we

96
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,400
Speaker 1: got with Toby Maguire. It's like a great mix of

97
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,360
Speaker 1: that and also what the Spider Man suit has turned

98
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 1: into now. But Amazing Spider Man two was fantastic, even

99
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:53,919
Speaker 1: though at the time I think a lot of people

100
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 1: talk crap on it. We also had Gone Girl in

101
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 1: this year, Had to Train Your Dragon to the Grand

102
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 1: Budapest Hotel from Wes Anderson, one of his better movies,

103
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 1: a top five movie of his American Sniper, which is

104
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: another one of my favorite war movies. The Edge of

105
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: Tomorrow with Tom Cruise, which I don't think I fully

106
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: got when it came out in twenty fourteen, but maybe

107
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 1: three or four years ago I rewatched and visited that

108
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 1: movie again, and that's a really good movie. It has

109
00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 1: such a generic title though, you just see Tom Cruise

110
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,600
Speaker 1: in the Edge of Tomorrow and it really doesn't tell

111
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 1: you much about that movie, but it's all about him,

112
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,920
Speaker 1: like reliving the same day and trying to crack this timecode.

113
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 1: You also have The Winter Soldier. It follows one of

114
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 1: the most underrated horror movies of the twenty tens, Days

115
00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,840
Speaker 1: of Future, Pass from X Men twenty two, Jump Street,

116
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 1: in the Hunger Games World, we got Mocking Jades, a

117
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:47,040
Speaker 1: lego movie, Big Hero six. There are so many great

118
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:51,600
Speaker 1: memories in twenty fourteen Transformers Age of Extinction, which isn't

119
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 1: the best Transformers movie, but at this time in twenty fourteen,

120
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 1: I was convinced that every Transformers movie I went to

121
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 1: go see in theaters was gonna be great. The premise

122
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 1: of this movie, I just do not like Mark Wahlberg

123
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:07,280
Speaker 1: in it. We also had Annabelle, Godzilla, The Theory of Everything, Boyhood,

124
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 1: which I do believe is a bit overrated, but I

125
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:14,040
Speaker 1: watched it before everybody was rating it so high. I

126
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,600
Speaker 1: enjoyed it. But that's a movie that not a whole

127
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 1: lot of people talk about anymore, with it being still groundbreaking.

128
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: At the time. You usually had some comedy bangers like Neighbors,

129
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 1: the first Paddington movie came out, The Interview, which was

130
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 1: highly controversial, Tusk, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes TMNT,

131
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 1: the live action Michael Bay One, which was kind of

132
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:37,480
Speaker 1: like a different version of Transformers but with Ninja Turtles,

133
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: A Million Ways to Die in the West, which was

134
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,720
Speaker 1: a movie from the creator of Family Guy, Seth McFarland.

135
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 1: Not the greatest of comedy movies, but I do remember

136
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:48,160
Speaker 1: going to see that movie in theaters. Saint Vincent, which

137
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:53,160
Speaker 1: starred Bill Murray, and Wild all those movies from twenty fourteen.

138
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 1: That brings it in at number five on my list.

139
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 1: Next up on my list at number four is nineteen

140
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 1: ninety nine. Now we were just arguing the most influential

141
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,039
Speaker 1: movie years. I think you can make an argument for

142
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety nine being the most influential year because it

143
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 1: closed out the nineties and really set us up for

144
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 1: the two thousands. And gave us a lot of movies

145
00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: and styles that people have been trying to recreate ever since.

146
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 1: This time was so edgy and cool and black and dark,

147
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 1: where people just wanted kind of still the coolness of

148
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 1: the nineties without the cheese, and that is what we got.

149
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 1: More going into the two thousands with my top five

150
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 1: movies from nineteen ninety nine. At number five is an

151
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 1: underrated Disney movie as well, primarily because of the music.

152
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 1: It's Tarzan. That was one of my favorite movies as

153
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: a kid and as a family. Watched that movie so much.

154
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: That movie is a classic that I'm glad they haven't

155
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 1: tried to remake or make a lot. Well, they did

156
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: kind of make a live action version that wasn't Disney,

157
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: but that movie was so good with the music of

158
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 1: Phil Collins, great voice acting. I have that one at

159
00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 1: number five. At number four, I have American Pie, which

160
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 1: was the quintessential teen hookup movie and everybody wanted to

161
00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 1: be like American Pie. And I think now when we

162
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 1: think of the greatest comedies ever in the movies we

163
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 1: kind of craved the most. Where people say, why don't

164
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 1: they make great comedies anymore? I think oftentimes we're talking

165
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 1: about movies like American Pie and the trails that were

166
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 1: blazed in that film, not only with its comedy, with

167
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 1: its ensemble cast, but also the music. It really meant

168
00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 1: something in nineteen ninety nine to get your song in

169
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 1: a movie, and this was a great reflection on the times.

170
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 1: I mean, blank onin eighty two is actually in this movie.

171
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 1: Their song Mutt is also in this movie. And then

172
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 1: when it came time for American Pie too, it became

173
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 1: more of a thing, and you had bands like some

174
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,200
Speaker 1: forty one New Felt Glory, which were so popular and

175
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 1: so influential on me at that time. So it also

176
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 1: takes me back to that era when it did mean

177
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 1: something to have a song featured in a movie, and

178
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 1: now just kind of like it doesn't even matter anymore

179
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 1: unless you're James Gunn and using songs for a very

180
00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: specific purpose. At number three, I have Toy Story two,

181
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:02,679
Speaker 1: which was a movie that almost didn't see the light

182
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 1: of day because again in the nineties, still computer technology

183
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 1: and animation was still relatively new. They didn't have it

184
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,520
Speaker 1: fully figured out on how to back things up, and

185
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 1: this entire movie was almost deleted entirely. But luckily one

186
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 1: of the people working on the movie. One of the

187
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: animators had a kid and was working from their home

188
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 1: office and had a copy of this movie on their

189
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:31,680
Speaker 1: home computer. Otherwise they would have had to start all

190
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 1: over and redo this movie entirely. At number two, I

191
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: find a lot of movies from nineteen ninety nine that

192
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,280
Speaker 1: I resonate with or all animated, because at number two

193
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 1: I have south Park, Bigger, Longer and Uncut. This movie

194
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:46,920
Speaker 1: taught me how to curse at a very young age.

195
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 1: I should not have watched this movie at eight years old.

196
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 1: This was a movie as a kid that I just

197
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 1: had playing on a loop. Not at my parents' house.

198
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: They did not owe me watching or knew about this movie.

199
00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,600
Speaker 1: But at my cousin's house, we would watch this movie

200
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 1: all the time. Time we'd be playing Tony Hawk pro

201
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:06,079
Speaker 1: Skater or Grand Theft Auto and just watching south Park, Bigger, Longer,

202
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 1: and Uncut. I wish they would make another full length

203
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,839
Speaker 1: animated movie like this and put it out in theaters.

204
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:15,840
Speaker 1: At number one, though, it's fight Club. Fight Club is

205
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 1: the quintessential nineteen ninety nine movie, and I know some

206
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: people are gonna say, well, that's obviously the matrix for

207
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,600
Speaker 1: me it is Fight Club. I don't really have a

208
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 1: deep connection with The Matrix. I Love Again and it

209
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:31,319
Speaker 1: can appreciate how influential that movie was, but I would

210
00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 1: not put that in my top five of movies from

211
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:36,200
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety nine. But you also had, of course The Matrix,

212
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 1: like I just mentioned, Big Daddy, The Mummy, Nodding Hill,

213
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: Austin Powers, The Spy Who Shagged Me, a great comedy movie,

214
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 1: The Green Mile Johnny su Nami, which I rewatched pretty recently.

215
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,320
Speaker 1: That movie still holds up. Some parks are a little

216
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,200
Speaker 1: bit weird, but I think that's the case for any

217
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 1: Disney Channel movie. And it's also weird seeing how unsupportive

218
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 1: his dad was, Like, Dude, your dad's just kind of

219
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,560
Speaker 1: a bad dad, just moved than you and doesn't care,

220
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 1: has no remorse and doesn't want you to end up

221
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:07,200
Speaker 1: like your grandfather his dad. Like that whole dynamic was

222
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 1: a little bit weird. So there are some things that

223
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 1: I also didn't notice, like the two brothers, the one

224
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 1: that owns the shop on one side of the mountain

225
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,200
Speaker 1: and the other one that owns the shop on the

226
00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 1: other side of the mountain. One of them is a snowboarder.

227
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 1: One of them is a skier, and it turns out

228
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: they're played by the same actor that blew my mind.

229
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 1: I didn't realize that until now. You also had other

230
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 1: Disney Channel movies from nineteen ninety nine like Xenon and

231
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 1: Smart House. All this was like my era of Disney Channel.

232
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 1: Also in ninety nine, you had American Beauty Eyes, White

233
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 1: Shut Ten, Things I Hate About You, The Sixth Sense,

234
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,199
Speaker 1: Double Jeopardy. That movie blew my mind as a kid,

235
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:46,560
Speaker 1: The Boodendogs, Saints Dogma Life. I love this movie with

236
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence and the late Bernie Mack.

237
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: You also have Lake Placid Varsity Blues, which is my

238
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 1: favorite football movie of all time, Never Been Kissed, which

239
00:11:56,640 --> 00:11:59,120
Speaker 1: is my favorite rom com of all time. And then

240
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 1: you have these really random nineties movies that I love,

241
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:04,840
Speaker 1: and it was usually because I watched them on cable,

242
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 1: But movies like Deep Blue Sea. I've seen that movie

243
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,960
Speaker 1: so many times. I don't think we ever rented it.

244
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 1: I never saw it in theaters, but for sure watched

245
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 1: it probably on USA so many times in the nineties

246
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 1: and then probably carrying into the two thousands. Movies like

247
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 1: Office Space, October Sky, She's all that, the Iron Giant,

248
00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 1: but the Blair Witch Project, Deuce Bigelows, Stuart little Man

249
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 1: on the Moon, mistery Man, Blue Streak, which is my

250
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 1: favorite Martin Lawrence movie of all time. Any given Sunday,

251
00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: Idle Hands, Detroit Rock City. Nineteen ninety nine is a

252
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 1: great year. And again it's just because three and four

253
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 1: and one are so just top level to me, because

254
00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: ninety nine is stack. But still, this is a really

255
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 1: tough list to make. It comes in at number four.

256
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 1: At number three, I have twenty nineteen. This year is

257
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,520
Speaker 1: very special to me. That is the year we launched

258
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 1: this podcast, and it was a year that I didn't

259
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,439
Speaker 1: know how good we had it until movies shut down

260
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty. My favorit favorite five films from this year.

261
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: At number five, I have Once upon a Time in

262
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 1: Hollywood Quentin Tarantino. He said he was gonna make his

263
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,680
Speaker 1: final movie. It was supposed to be about a movie critic.

264
00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:11,840
Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, I'm here, I'm ready cast me

265
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:13,720
Speaker 1: in your movie. And then he's like, I'm not making

266
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 1: that movie anymore. But it's been too long since we've

267
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 1: had a Quentin Tarantino movie a fantastic in theater experience

268
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:25,000
Speaker 1: and also has really great rewatchability. Wild thing looking back

269
00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 1: on that movie now is how many people were in

270
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 1: it that are such big stars now, like Austin Butler,

271
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:35,439
Speaker 1: Sidney Sweeney, recent Oscar winning actor Mikey Madison. They were

272
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 1: all cast in this movie and have smaller parts in it,

273
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 1: but now they're all huge and could be carrying their

274
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,200
Speaker 1: own movie. It was almost like a prerequisite to be

275
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 1: a star in five years. At number four, I have

276
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 1: uncut Gems Adam Sandler in a dramatic role and in

277
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,199
Speaker 1: a stressful role like this is my favorite, speaking of

278
00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 1: stressful movies. At number three, I have Joker, the dive

279
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,200
Speaker 1: that this movie took from Joker one to Joker two.

280
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 1: In my head, Joker two doesn't. I can't allow that

281
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:05,680
Speaker 1: movie to ruin what was created in the first one.

282
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 1: One of my favorite in theater experiences of all time.

283
00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 1: It just left my jaw on the floor and really

284
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 1: rattled me so much so that it was a really

285
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 1: long time, probably two years until I was able to

286
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:20,720
Speaker 1: actually rewatch this movie. It is a movie that I

287
00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 1: didn't want to go back and revisit so soon and

288
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 1: have my perspective changed because I left that movie. I

289
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:27,920
Speaker 1: gave my review and I gave it a five out

290
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 1: of five, and I stood by that for a very

291
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 1: long time, and I didn't want my opinion change because

292
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 1: I knew how it made me feel in that moment,

293
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 1: the energy going into that movie, with it being so

294
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 1: controversial in some of the ways that it depicted violence,

295
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:43,520
Speaker 1: but I think it's just a great character study on

296
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 1: somebody going through a lot of hard mental struggles, dealing

297
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 1: with an illness and then kind of inciting a riot

298
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 1: as a result of that. But yes, for me, this

299
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: is a perfect movie, and Joker Too does not exist.

300
00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: At number two. I have Parasite, which was really influence

301
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 1: on me giving international films more of a chance. And

302
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:07,320
Speaker 1: it wasn't that I was against them. I was never

303
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 1: really against watching movies with subtitles, But it was this

304
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 1: movie that really just made me think, like, why haven't

305
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 1: I been seeking out movies from other countries, and why

306
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 1: have I been hesitant to do that? Why do I

307
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:23,040
Speaker 1: look at them at sometimes being homework. This movie changed

308
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 1: all that. And the thing it really changed with me

309
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 1: is I always watch movies now in the language that

310
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 1: they are made in with English subtitles unless it's animated.

311
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 1: I feel like animation is a little bit different because

312
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 1: when you watch an animated movie, oftentimes they get actual

313
00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 1: American actors, established actors to revoice those characters, and they

314
00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 1: treated the same way they would treat any movie. But

315
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 1: when they do just Spanish dubs or English dubs, oftentimes

316
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 1: it's just random people. They could still be actors, it's

317
00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 1: still a job for them, but I don't feel like

318
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:02,880
Speaker 1: they capture the same emotion that the actors do that

319
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 1: are actually playing the parts in these countries that these

320
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 1: movies are being released in. So I feel to get

321
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 1: that real emotion, I have to watch it in their language.

322
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 1: Even though I don't understand what they are saying, I

323
00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:18,960
Speaker 1: feel the emotion that paired with me reading it allows

324
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 1: me to enjoy these movies at times more than I

325
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 1: do just standard American movies because I'm so dialed in

326
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:28,040
Speaker 1: because I'm reading and also hearing and feeling their emotion

327
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,040
Speaker 1: and the way that they speak in the acting. So

328
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,680
Speaker 1: that is something I always do. Even though Netflix or

329
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 1: other streaming services sometimes give you that ability to also

330
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 1: change what you were hearing. I want to hear their

331
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 1: actual voice in their language, so that is something also

332
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 1: that Parasite has influenced me, and it's really stuck with

333
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 1: me since twenty nineteen. Number two is where I have

334
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,760
Speaker 1: that movie. At number one, I have Avengers Endgame, and

335
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 1: depending on the day, I would battle on which one

336
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,320
Speaker 1: of those is two and which one of those is one.

337
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,880
Speaker 1: But where I placed them on for this list is

338
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,880
Speaker 1: because at least once a year I rewatched Endgame, and

339
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 1: I would probably rewatch it more if it wasn't three

340
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:07,879
Speaker 1: hours long. So in total in my life I have

341
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:11,440
Speaker 1: rewatched Endgame more. So I have to put it at one.

342
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,640
Speaker 1: More notable movies from twenty nineteen some of my favorites

343
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:19,040
Speaker 1: Detective Pikachu obviously, Spider Man Far from Home. I think

344
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 1: the Best Picture category was one of the best, at

345
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 1: least in the last ten years. Parasite was also the

346
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 1: winner of the Best Picture Award that year, but he

347
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:31,840
Speaker 1: had Ford v Ferrari. The Irishman watched all three plus

348
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 1: hours of that on Netflix. Jojo Rabbit Joker also made

349
00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,920
Speaker 1: it into the Best Picture category. Little Women Marriage Story,

350
00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,360
Speaker 1: which now I hear they're using a clip of Scarlett

351
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 1: Johansson to like word away like wildlife apparently like wolves

352
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 1: and other things like freak out when they were to

353
00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 1: hear that scene, So that's an unexpected result of that movie.

354
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:55,919
Speaker 1: Nineteen seventeen Beautifully Shot also Once upon a Time in

355
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 1: Hollywood was in that category. You also had movies like

356
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:03,400
Speaker 1: Midsommar Knives Out, John Wick Chapter three, The Rise of Skywalker,

357
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 1: Lighthouse oh Man, Willem Dafoe, and Robert Pattinson Going at

358
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:11,119
Speaker 1: It It Chapter two, which was another really great horror

359
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 1: movie experience, even though I love part one so much more,

360
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,199
Speaker 1: that one was just so cinis during the beginning. I

361
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 1: love seeing that one in theaters. Movies like Book, Smart

362
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 1: Bomb Show, Jumanji, Next Level, Toy Story four, even though

363
00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 1: I believe it should have ended a Toy Story three,

364
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:30,120
Speaker 1: The live action Lion King Godzella, King of Monsters, Frozen two,

365
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,760
Speaker 1: which I think is the better Frozen movie. We finally

366
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 1: got the sequel to Zombie Land, Double Tap came out

367
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,680
Speaker 1: that year, Sound a Metal, which I mentioned earlier, Annabel

368
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,440
Speaker 1: Comes Home. You also have Fighting with My Family, which

369
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,719
Speaker 1: is based upon the WWE Superstar page, which I am

370
00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 1: so back into WWE now. It started with The Unreal

371
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,679
Speaker 1: Show on Netflix. Which I finished and loved, and I

372
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 1: think they put that out perfectly because it led right

373
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 1: into Summer Slam. And ever since then, I've been watching

374
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 1: Monday Night ragain. I feel like I'm ten years old

375
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 1: all over again, which is on par for this episode.

376
00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:06,920
Speaker 1: You said us, Richard Jewell at Astra Aladdin the Platform

377
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:11,360
Speaker 1: Ready or Not Man twenty nineteen was stacked at number two,

378
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:15,320
Speaker 1: I have nineteen ninety four. Looking at this list, it

379
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 1: is hard to believe that nineteen ninety four was real.

380
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,560
Speaker 1: And out of all the years on this list, if

381
00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:24,760
Speaker 1: I could go back and experience just one year by

382
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 1: seeing all of these movies in theaters for the first time,

383
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 1: it would be nineteen ninety four because I've seen the

384
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:33,440
Speaker 1: least amount of these in theaters, obviously because I was

385
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:36,160
Speaker 1: three years old. But I'm gonna give you my top

386
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:39,440
Speaker 1: five to start this, because there are just mountains and

387
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:43,200
Speaker 1: mountains of so many good movies in nineteen ninety four,

388
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:47,480
Speaker 1: for one actor in particular, single handily their best year

389
00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 1: in movies of all time. But at number five, I

390
00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 1: have Forrest Gump. Think about that, at number five, I

391
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:54,919
Speaker 1: have one of the greatest movies of all time. That

392
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 1: is how stacked this year is at number four. Now

393
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 1: people are gonna argue that number five I was better

394
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:03,679
Speaker 1: than my number four. But to me personally, I have

395
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 1: Angels in the Outfield, which I believe is the best

396
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 1: baseball movie of all time. Angels in the Outfield could

397
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,119
Speaker 1: not be made today, not for a political sense, just

398
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:16,960
Speaker 1: because a movie as ridiculous as it sounds made sense

399
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety four. We were in an era where

400
00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 1: we could believe that a team would say, Okay, this

401
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,440
Speaker 1: kid sees angels, we're gonna give him this signal. We're

402
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 1: gonna make them come to every single baseball game. A

403
00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 1: plot as ridiculous as that did not feel ridiculous in

404
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety four. I just watched this movie so much

405
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 1: as a kid, and then later as an adult, found

406
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:41,920
Speaker 1: it so hard to even track it down. It wasn't

407
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 1: until fairly recently, maybe in the last year year and

408
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,720
Speaker 1: a half, that this movie was even available to watch

409
00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 1: on Disney Plus. So it almost felt like did I

410
00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:53,239
Speaker 1: even experience this movie whatsoever? But it also has a

411
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:55,720
Speaker 1: lot of emotion in it, aside from all the fun

412
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,800
Speaker 1: of people running around trying to catch baseballs that are

413
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 1: being thrown around by the angels in the outfield. Literally.

414
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,919
Speaker 1: You also have a story about a son who just

415
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: wants to be reunited with his dad, but instead he's

416
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 1: living in foster care and his dad is just a

417
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,159
Speaker 1: dirt bag. Tells him, you know this team that is

418
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:15,920
Speaker 1: historically bad, that just can't win a game to save

419
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 1: their lives. If they're ever good, we can be a

420
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 1: family again. And then that team ends up being really good,

421
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,199
Speaker 1: and dad is still like, Nah, I'm gonna leave you

422
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,879
Speaker 1: behind and leave you bawling in the courtroom. What a

423
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,800
Speaker 1: ridiculous plot, What a ridiculous premise. There is no reason

424
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,399
Speaker 1: this movie should pack as emotional of a punch that

425
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 1: it does. But I have that one at number four.

426
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 1: At number three is pulp fiction with Quentin Tarantino dropped

427
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,200
Speaker 1: this banger, and then everybody wanted a piece of them.

428
00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:44,919
Speaker 1: Everybody wanted to rip them off. And I feel like

429
00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 1: there have been so many directors in the action genre

430
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 1: who have tried to replicate this movie and just can't

431
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,920
Speaker 1: do it because they don't have the vision of Quentin Tarantino.

432
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,880
Speaker 1: But a movie that just has unorthodox storytelling, has such

433
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:01,880
Speaker 1: powerful and dynamic characters, such memorable lines, from the very

434
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:07,200
Speaker 1: beginning and images it is probably his masterpiece. Probably has

435
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 1: other movies that are better technically, maybe at times have

436
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:13,840
Speaker 1: higher action, or without this movie, we would have never

437
00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 1: gotten any of those. And number two, I have Dumb

438
00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 1: and Dumber my favorite comedy movie, not only of the nineties,

439
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,439
Speaker 1: but my favorite comedy of all time. And again a

440
00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,159
Speaker 1: movie that could not be made today because things that

441
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,520
Speaker 1: we found as funny and ridiculous in this movie just

442
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,960
Speaker 1: would not work. And I also think it captures what

443
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 1: comedy is and why a comedy movie like this does

444
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,159
Speaker 1: work is because you have two people who are just

445
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:41,080
Speaker 1: utter buffoons who you try to figure out which one

446
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,440
Speaker 1: is dumb and which one is dumber because they're both idiots,

447
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 1: but everybody else in the movie is normal, and everybody

448
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,920
Speaker 1: else finds them so ridiculous and gets frustrated with them

449
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,679
Speaker 1: and doesn't understand them, and they play the part of

450
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 1: us as the audience. But the fact that you have

451
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,399
Speaker 1: that contrast between these characters, because if it was just

452
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:03,399
Speaker 1: them being stupid all the time, but also having everybody

453
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 1: in this world being as stupid as they are or

454
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,720
Speaker 1: accepting of how dumb they are, this movie would not work.

455
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:13,440
Speaker 1: That is another problem I had with Happy Gilmore two

456
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 1: is there was no contrast between anybody. Everybody was just

457
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:20,520
Speaker 1: dumb and doing ridiculous things, and there was no one

458
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 1: there to say, hey, like what is happening here? Like

459
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:26,480
Speaker 1: why is everything so ridiculous right now? Which there was

460
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:29,719
Speaker 1: that and Happy Gilmour won. It just wasn't all ridiculous

461
00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:32,359
Speaker 1: all the time. I really think that's kind of the

462
00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:35,520
Speaker 1: source of why some movies now aren't as funny as

463
00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:39,880
Speaker 1: they were back twenty thirty years ago, is because there's

464
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,840
Speaker 1: no longer that contrast. You have to make a comedy

465
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,560
Speaker 1: movie now and think everything has to be wilding out

466
00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:47,880
Speaker 1: all the time. It has to be parody. But dumb

467
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,080
Speaker 1: and dumber is how you do it. That's at number

468
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:53,399
Speaker 1: two and number one. My favorite movie of nineteen ninety

469
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,359
Speaker 1: four is The Lion King. I still say it is

470
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 1: the best made Disney movie of all time. Not my favorite,

471
00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 1: Lela Stitch will always be my favorite. But I think

472
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 1: when you look at storytelling, even though some people argue

473
00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,360
Speaker 1: that The Lion King just basically ripped off the Land

474
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,960
Speaker 1: Before Time, that even the makers of the Land Before

475
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 1: Time said, whenever Lion King came out, they were like,

476
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:16,000
Speaker 1: what did they do? They just ripped off our movie,

477
00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 1: But it was more impactful, It had better songs, it

478
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 1: had more memorable characters. So even if they did rip

479
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,760
Speaker 1: it off, they ripped it off really well. But also

480
00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,680
Speaker 1: in ninety four you had The Usual Suspects, a movie

481
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 1: that blew my mind and still will blow my mind

482
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,120
Speaker 1: even though I know what is going to happen. Has

483
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:36,639
Speaker 1: one of the best twists of all time, the Shawshank Redemption.

484
00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 1: The actor who had the biggest year in nineteen ninety

485
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:43,400
Speaker 1: four was Jim Carrey with the movie we mentioned earlier,

486
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 1: Dumb and Dumber, but also had a spintera pet detective,

487
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 1: and The Mask all come out in nineteen ninety four.

488
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 1: You also had indie darlings like Clerks, one of the

489
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:56,880
Speaker 1: greatest action movies at the nineties, Speed Interview with the Vampire,

490
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 1: True Lies, Clear in Present Danger D two, The Mighty Ducks,

491
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 1: Little Giants. This was an era of great sports family comedies.

492
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:09,159
Speaker 1: Oh Little Giants is an amazing movie. Has one of

493
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 1: the greatest sports villains of all time with the Dallas Cowboys.

494
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 1: Even though I'm a fan of the Dallas Cowboys at

495
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,560
Speaker 1: the time, they're kind of the Villain, even though EMMTT

496
00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:18,399
Speaker 1: Smith is in this movie. You also have movies like

497
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:22,280
Speaker 1: The page Master. That movie also feels like does anybody

498
00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,920
Speaker 1: else remember The Page Master? Or Am I the only

499
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 1: one that watched that movie as a kid with Micaulay Culkin,

500
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 1: Major League two, Blank Check The Jungle Book, which was

501
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 1: the live action movie in the nineties, and it even

502
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:37,480
Speaker 1: had the best good bad movies The Flintstones, I don't

503
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,919
Speaker 1: believe is a good movie, but I still watched it.

504
00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 1: I still loved it. Movies like The Little Rascals Street Fighter.

505
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,560
Speaker 1: As bad as that movie was, it's still a good

506
00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:48,679
Speaker 1: bad movie in nineteen ninety four, and other Adam Sandler

507
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:53,880
Speaker 1: movies like Airheads that is nineteen ninety four at number two,

508
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:57,200
Speaker 1: before I get to number one, I have an honorable mention,

509
00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 1: and that honorable mention goes to two thousand and nine.

510
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 1: I feel like this was the last year that film

511
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 1: was really unified. It was right on the cusp of

512
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:11,520
Speaker 1: us being so consumed by social media and YouTube. The

513
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:13,920
Speaker 1: iPhone came out a couple years before this in two

514
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 1: thousand and seven, and I feel like this was the

515
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,679
Speaker 1: last year, at least in film, that we were all

516
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:23,240
Speaker 1: unified and watching the same things because we were just

517
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 1: before that era of there being so many avenues on

518
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:30,880
Speaker 1: where to watch things. Once Netflix came around and really

519
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:34,800
Speaker 1: started dominating with streaming, we were still going to the theater,

520
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:37,679
Speaker 1: all watching the same movies and then later watching it

521
00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,159
Speaker 1: on Blu Ray. That's why I feel like two thousand

522
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:43,200
Speaker 1: and nine to me is very significant. My top five

523
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:44,920
Speaker 1: movies of this year were Up in the Air, which

524
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 1: is my favorite George Clooney movie. Number four is Avatar

525
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:50,200
Speaker 1: and again I think right place, right time that went

526
00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:51,879
Speaker 1: on to be one of the highest grossing movies of

527
00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:54,919
Speaker 1: all time. And number three I would have up at

528
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:58,199
Speaker 1: number two The Hangover, which I believe to be the

529
00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:03,360
Speaker 1: last great American comedy classic, again that we all watched collectively,

530
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 1: back when we would all go watch a movie and

531
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,080
Speaker 1: then everybody would just be quoting it because we all

532
00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,560
Speaker 1: went to go see the same thing. But at number one,

533
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,640
Speaker 1: speaking of Quentin Tarantino earlier, even though I believe Pulp

534
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:17,760
Speaker 1: Fiction is his masterpiece, at number one, and Glorious Bastard's

535
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 1: is my favorite Quentin Tarantino movie, one of my favorite

536
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 1: in theater experiences. Oh, I had so much joy while

537
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,440
Speaker 1: watching that movie and rooting on the good guys, and

538
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:30,480
Speaker 1: Christoph Waltz was just such a great villain. And again

539
00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 1: we had Brad Pitt be and Brad Pitt again. But

540
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:36,640
Speaker 1: honorable mention goes to two thousand and nine. But at

541
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 1: number one I have two thousand and seven. This is

542
00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:45,240
Speaker 1: the year where I really fell in love with movies.

543
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,480
Speaker 1: If it wouldn't have been for two thousand and seven,

544
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:51,199
Speaker 1: I would not be here today doing this podcast. I

545
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 1: was sixteen years old. I was watching movies all the time.

546
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,480
Speaker 1: Also what era I refer to as the burn DVD age,

547
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 1: where that it was just kind of running rampant. I

548
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 1: remember having one of those binders where you would put CDs,

549
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:07,399
Speaker 1: but it was all filled with DVDs. I had a

550
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,359
Speaker 1: friend who made them, and it was just the gift

551
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:11,560
Speaker 1: that kept on giving because every week it would just

552
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 1: give me another stack of movies. So I watched so

553
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 1: many movies in two thousand and seven, and it was

554
00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 1: the year that I truly fell in love with movies,

555
00:28:19,359 --> 00:28:21,560
Speaker 1: where I went from saying I like movies to final

556
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 1: saying I love the movies because I started to see

557
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 1: the inner workings of what it took to make these

558
00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,679
Speaker 1: It was the year I started paying to directors and

559
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:35,160
Speaker 1: paying attention to cinematography, because I started noticing all these details,

560
00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:37,199
Speaker 1: and I started to wonder, like, why do I like

561
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,520
Speaker 1: this movie? What is it about it that actually sticks

562
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,440
Speaker 1: out to me? I started to watch movies more analytically,

563
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,360
Speaker 1: and this was the year that all those lights and

564
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,560
Speaker 1: sensors in my brain just started going off, where I

565
00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 1: started asking more, where I started watching movies and not

566
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 1: just paying attention to the cast, but also who produced it,

567
00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:58,240
Speaker 1: who wrote it, who directed it. All those things in

568
00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 1: two thousand and seven started to matter to me. So

569
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:03,400
Speaker 1: that's why I went from just being a kid who

570
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 1: watched movies to being a kid who now watched the films.

571
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 1: And now that kind of sounds like, ah, you loser,

572
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,200
Speaker 1: called movies. Films are all movies. It's all the same thing.

573
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 1: But that's the only way I can describe that of

574
00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 1: that switch in my brain that if I wouldn't have

575
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,760
Speaker 1: had this year with such great movies, I would not

576
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 1: be in this position now. I would have never gotten

577
00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,520
Speaker 1: to twenty fourteen, which was another year on this list,

578
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: or twenty nineteen, So in no way would I still

579
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 1: be here in twenty twenty five talking about movies. If

580
00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 1: it wasn't for two thousand and seven. My top five

581
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 1: movies of this year at number five is The Simpsons Movie,

582
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 1: which is funny because I was just talking about how

583
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 1: I started paying attention to films and talking about directors,

584
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:43,680
Speaker 1: and then at number five, I have the Simpsons movie.

585
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 1: But I am such a huge Simpsons fan and I'd

586
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 1: been waiting for this my entire life. I loved all

587
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 1: the promotion leading up to this movie. It felt like

588
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 1: an event. Seven to eleven's were changed into quickie marts,

589
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 1: and I remember going to see this and it blew

590
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,440
Speaker 1: my mind to see the Simpsons curse, some of the

591
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 1: scenes where you see Bart in ways you didn't think

592
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 1: you were going to ever see Bart. It just felt epic.

593
00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:09,440
Speaker 1: It felt like the perfect story, and it just felt

594
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,080
Speaker 1: like something in my lifetime that I would never witness.

595
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:15,120
Speaker 1: At number four, I have Transformers. This movie changed me

596
00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:18,280
Speaker 1: a lot. This movie also had a big impact on

597
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:23,760
Speaker 1: cinema and summer blockbusters, where I just associate watching a

598
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 1: Transformers movie in the summer as a rite of passage.

599
00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 1: I just believe that that is a pillar of cinema

600
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 1: more so than any other action franchise. If there is

601
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: a year where a Transformers movie comes out from now

602
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:39,640
Speaker 1: until forever, I don't care how bad these movies get.

603
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:41,840
Speaker 1: I am going to watch it because it feels like

604
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:45,240
Speaker 1: a rite of passage. It feels like an event. Hearing

605
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:49,480
Speaker 1: Peter Cullen's voice in a theater as Optimist Prime through

606
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 1: the booming theater speakers and seeing all the carnage of

607
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 1: Transformers metal on screen and the explosions from Michael Bay

608
00:30:57,680 --> 00:31:00,400
Speaker 1: that feels like summer to me. So I'm always gonna

609
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 1: chase that. It's like a drug to me. I had

610
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 1: my first hit in two thousand and seven, and I'm

611
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: still chasing that high ever since. At number three Spider

612
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:11,160
Speaker 1: Man three, at the time, this movie got dragged, and

613
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,920
Speaker 1: it wasn't until maybe the last five years or so,

614
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 1: especially whenever Toby Maguire came back, that I feel that

615
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 1: Spider Man three finally got its flowers. Yes, it gets

616
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 1: parodied a lot, it gets poked fun at a lot,

617
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 1: But I love this movie when it first came out

618
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:28,400
Speaker 1: because we got black Suit Spider Man. Maybe I didn't

619
00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:31,760
Speaker 1: love because the depiction of Venom, which was my favorite

620
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 1: villain from the nineties, wasn't really portrayed in the way

621
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:37,600
Speaker 1: I wanted him to. I would not have cast to

622
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 1: Ford Grace to play Venom, but it was what it

623
00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 1: was and it did so many things for me that

624
00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,800
Speaker 1: I loved. So at number three, I had Spider Man

625
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 1: three and number two is Juno. If I had to

626
00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:50,680
Speaker 1: pick one movie from this year to really define what

627
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:54,680
Speaker 1: pop culture was, to really define what music was in

628
00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:58,680
Speaker 1: two thousand and seven in fashion, I would show you Juno.

629
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 1: I love everything this movie, from the wardrobe, from the

630
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 1: quirky characters, from the memorable quotes. In two thousand and seven,

631
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 1: it was so important to have a quirky movie with

632
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 1: these really great quotes that you could put on a

633
00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 1: T shirt that you could sell at hot topic, And

634
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 1: that is what I think about when I think about Juno.

635
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 1: Also has really great music and a movie that I

636
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 1: probably watched the most that year and it still holds up.

637
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 1: I love Juno at number two. At number one, I

638
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 1: Have No Country for Old Men, which would also enter

639
00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,800
Speaker 1: into my top ten movies of all time, And this

640
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 1: was the one movie specifically, like I was mentioning earlier,

641
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 1: what changed in me in two thousand and seven, This

642
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,000
Speaker 1: was really the movie that did it. You have one

643
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:41,080
Speaker 1: of the greatest movie villains of all time played by

644
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 1: Javier Bardem. Josh Brolin is fantastic in this movie. Woody

645
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 1: Harrelson is fantastic in this movie. I also loved that

646
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 1: the Cohen Brothers brought people who weren't real actors, but

647
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 1: they worked and lived in these towns that they were

648
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 1: filming in in Texas to add that level of Texas authenticity.

649
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 1: My favorite scene added this entire movie is Anton Sugar,

650
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 1: who was the villain, going to pay for his gas

651
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 1: at the gas station and him having that encounter with

652
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:11,040
Speaker 1: the clerk there, and it's just so simple but just

653
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,880
Speaker 1: such great dialogue that there's so much tension in it,

654
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,800
Speaker 1: and that guy is the only guy to not die

655
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,239
Speaker 1: at the hands of Anton Sugar. He does not know

656
00:33:19,280 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 1: how close he came to death to him that day.

657
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,440
Speaker 1: Some weird guy just came in with a funny haircut.

658
00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:26,840
Speaker 1: He wanted coin toss and that was it. But he

659
00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:30,240
Speaker 1: did not know in that moment how bad that interaction

660
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:32,800
Speaker 1: could have gone, and just how much tension you can

661
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 1: build just through great dialogue and through great acting. A

662
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 1: perfect scene. No Country for Old Man my favorite movie

663
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:43,600
Speaker 1: from my favorite year two thousand and seven, A comeback

664
00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:50,240
Speaker 1: and give my spoiler free review on Weapons. Let's get

665
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:52,760
Speaker 1: into it now. A spoiler free movie review of Weapons.

666
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:56,200
Speaker 1: He's gonna keep it very, very spoiler free. Weapons is

667
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:59,000
Speaker 1: now entering that over hype stage because when it first

668
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,880
Speaker 1: came out opening week and theaters were packed, Our theater

669
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 1: was packed. Everybody was going crazy for this movie, big

670
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,840
Speaker 1: word of mouth. But now here we are, you're gonna

671
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,120
Speaker 1: start to see those people who are going to witness

672
00:34:11,160 --> 00:34:13,680
Speaker 1: it now and they're gonna be like, that's what everybody

673
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 1: was raving about. That movie is so overhyped. But that

674
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:19,680
Speaker 1: is okay with me because I would rather a really

675
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:22,880
Speaker 1: great movie be overhyped than have to fight for a

676
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,040
Speaker 1: really great movie that nobody has seen. Because there have

677
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:26,879
Speaker 1: been those this year where I'm like, everybody, you gotta

678
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,319
Speaker 1: go check out this movie, and everybody just doesn't want to.

679
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,120
Speaker 1: The movie doesn't do great at the box office, and

680
00:34:32,160 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 1: then maybe six months down the line, when it's on

681
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,759
Speaker 1: a streaming service, then people start to catch wind of it.

682
00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:39,160
Speaker 1: You could even argue maybe that's what happened a little

683
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:42,919
Speaker 1: bit with Barbarian Bam that cemented Zachkreigor as a really

684
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 1: great director. People started to see how much of a

685
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:48,839
Speaker 1: visionary he is, and he is now up there on

686
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:51,879
Speaker 1: the horror directors I'm really paying attention to. I think

687
00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:53,960
Speaker 1: Jordan Peele is still at the top of that list

688
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 1: because he is somebody who is more established than some

689
00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 1: of the other people working now. But he was a

690
00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 1: person who wanted this movie, fired some of his management

691
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:06,080
Speaker 1: team because he could not secure this film. And now

692
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:09,319
Speaker 1: I know exactly why he wanted this movie because it

693
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,560
Speaker 1: is next level horror. And Zach Craiger is somebody I

694
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:16,319
Speaker 1: really enjoy now because he's only forty four years old.

695
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 1: But just hearing him talk about this movie, how much

696
00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,040
Speaker 1: attention to detail he has. So what this movie is

697
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:24,120
Speaker 1: about if you haven't heard about it yet, Seventeen kids

698
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 1: go missing in this one classroom. Julia Gardner is the

699
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:30,279
Speaker 1: teacher in the classroom. The parents want answers, they are

700
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:33,160
Speaker 1: blaming her, and it is up to this town to

701
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:37,279
Speaker 1: unravel the mystery why all these kids went missing at

702
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:41,200
Speaker 1: two seventeen in the morning, exact same time, exact same night,

703
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:45,240
Speaker 1: in the exact same way. But nobody knows exactly why

704
00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:48,200
Speaker 1: it also stars Josh Brolin, who plays one of the

705
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:51,720
Speaker 1: missing kids' dads, Alden Ehrenreich, who is a police officer

706
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,239
Speaker 1: in the town, Benanic Wong. So right there, you have

707
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:57,600
Speaker 1: Silver Surfer, you have Thanos, you have the guy from Ironheart,

708
00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:00,560
Speaker 1: and you also have Wong from Doctor Strange. Also rounding

709
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:02,880
Speaker 1: out the cast, you have Austin Abrams, who plays a

710
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:04,920
Speaker 1: junkie in the movie. And let me just start with

711
00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,840
Speaker 1: the cast just perfectly cast it. I couldn't see anybody

712
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,160
Speaker 1: else in any of these roles. And I know Pedro

713
00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,760
Speaker 1: Pascal was supposed to play the role of Josh Brolin.

714
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:16,000
Speaker 1: I am so glad he didn't get it. And it's

715
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,080
Speaker 1: not that I don't like Pedro Pascal. It's not that

716
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:20,360
Speaker 1: I have Pedro fatigue. I watched all three of his

717
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 1: big movies this summer. He's a fantastic actor. Because I

718
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:26,479
Speaker 1: actually think that if Pedro Pascal was in the same role,

719
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:28,799
Speaker 1: it would not have hit the same way. There was

720
00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:31,520
Speaker 1: just something about his character that was more nuanced than

721
00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 1: I feel that Pedro Pascal could pull off right now.

722
00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:36,640
Speaker 1: And the reason he didn't do it is because he

723
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:40,000
Speaker 1: had too many projects. Obviously, with all the commitments he

724
00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,799
Speaker 1: has right now. So they had to recast almost this

725
00:36:43,040 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 1: entire movie except for Austin Abrams, who was there from

726
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:49,440
Speaker 1: the very beginning. And not only did they give great performances,

727
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:53,319
Speaker 1: their characters were so well written and so well developed

728
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:55,799
Speaker 1: that I could put myself into the shoes of any

729
00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,319
Speaker 1: of these people in this town and I would know

730
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:01,480
Speaker 1: what they love, what they hate, what triggers them. They

731
00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:04,279
Speaker 1: all have very unique flaws, which is something that I

732
00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 1: really took away from Weapons is that there's not one

733
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 1: character that is inherently the protagonist. Nobody in this movie

734
00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:15,480
Speaker 1: is necessarily a good or bad person in the story,

735
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:18,759
Speaker 1: because I think they've all been through something traumatic, they

736
00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:21,919
Speaker 1: all have some kind of blame pointed to them at

737
00:37:21,920 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 1: some point because of something they've done wrong. That there's

738
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:28,040
Speaker 1: not one person that you're necessarily rooting for, And I

739
00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:31,879
Speaker 1: think having that nuance of humans that have some good

740
00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,440
Speaker 1: qualities about them but also can be kind of shady

741
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:38,040
Speaker 1: in other ways is what makes this movie feel more

742
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:42,360
Speaker 1: real life. That if this actually happened in a town,

743
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:45,719
Speaker 1: you wouldn't just have a good Kuy, a good Samaritan

744
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,720
Speaker 1: out there trying to figure this thing out. There would

745
00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:51,600
Speaker 1: be some very mixed feelings between everybody in this town,

746
00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:53,880
Speaker 1: and that is really what you see. You don't just

747
00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:57,759
Speaker 1: see one shiny, perfect person trying to figure this thing out,

748
00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,160
Speaker 1: trying to save the day. So not only were all

749
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,839
Speaker 1: their performances on the screen, I just believe all their

750
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:06,200
Speaker 1: characters were so well written on the page, which goes

751
00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:08,920
Speaker 1: back to what I say about Zach Kreiger knowing his

752
00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:11,520
Speaker 1: vision before he goes into his movie, not trying to

753
00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:13,640
Speaker 1: find it in the process, and I think that is

754
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:16,719
Speaker 1: what really resonated with me. And not only that, but

755
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:19,759
Speaker 1: the movie just instantly dives into it. You start with

756
00:38:19,800 --> 00:38:23,400
Speaker 1: the girl explaining the story how everybody went missing, and

757
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:25,560
Speaker 1: then you are right there in it. I love the

758
00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:30,240
Speaker 1: format of the movie as it dives into each character individually,

759
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,600
Speaker 1: which is probably another reason why you do get to

760
00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:35,640
Speaker 1: know these characters so well, is because it fully dives

761
00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:39,720
Speaker 1: into where they were, where all these things started to happen,

762
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:42,520
Speaker 1: and show you all the things they have going on

763
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:45,319
Speaker 1: in their life. It doesn't really waste a whole lot

764
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:49,080
Speaker 1: of time with this crazy backstory of what happened before

765
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:52,040
Speaker 1: they went missing, diving into the characters backstories that way,

766
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 1: because it doesn't tell you. It just shows you by

767
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:57,400
Speaker 1: just letting you live a day in their life. And

768
00:38:57,440 --> 00:39:00,960
Speaker 1: I think that way of handling the story perfect and

769
00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,080
Speaker 1: I feel like that added way more to the mystery

770
00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:07,680
Speaker 1: because the movie was so unpredictable and in an era

771
00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:10,680
Speaker 1: of filmmaking right now, especially in horror, where sometimes you

772
00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:13,600
Speaker 1: can tell, Okay, I kind of see where this story

773
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:16,399
Speaker 1: is going, we're gonna get to this final battle. We're

774
00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:18,719
Speaker 1: gonna all have it figured out by the end. I

775
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:21,359
Speaker 1: didn't know who was about what, I didn't know what

776
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,400
Speaker 1: was going on, but I was so in for the

777
00:39:24,520 --> 00:39:28,480
Speaker 1: ride that in the two hour runtime, I never checked out.

778
00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 1: The horror elements were also fantastic, and I kind of

779
00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,960
Speaker 1: knew going into it it wasn't gonna be a full

780
00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:39,239
Speaker 1: on supernatural jump scare movie, although it did have those

781
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 1: elements in there as well, it was really more of

782
00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,480
Speaker 1: a horror mystery. I also feel like the movie didn't

783
00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:47,480
Speaker 1: use a bunch of cheap tactics to scare you. There

784
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:50,480
Speaker 1: were some more of the traditional elements, a couple of

785
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:53,040
Speaker 1: jump scares here and there, but I think the movie

786
00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:56,399
Speaker 1: just had a sinister DNA to it that aside from

787
00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:59,040
Speaker 1: a couple of things early on, it didn't really rely

788
00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:01,920
Speaker 1: on that. It also did a fantastic job of not

789
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:04,759
Speaker 1: showing you everything in the trailer, which is something that

790
00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:08,320
Speaker 1: horror movies are notorious for, because there were some elements

791
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,279
Speaker 1: that I saw from different portions of the movie in

792
00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:13,600
Speaker 1: the trailer, but even then, having all the pieces to

793
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:16,359
Speaker 1: this puzzle kind of laid out for you, you still had

794
00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:18,640
Speaker 1: no idea how those things were going to play out.

795
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:22,239
Speaker 1: I think Austin Abrams was low key the MVP of

796
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:24,880
Speaker 1: this movie, even though his character didn't have the most

797
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:28,319
Speaker 1: massive role. Out of anybody else, I would still say

798
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 1: Julia Gardner was my favorite part of the movie. Josh

799
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:33,319
Speaker 1: Bolin right up there with her, but I think his

800
00:40:33,480 --> 00:40:36,759
Speaker 1: presence brought something that was just completely unexpected out of

801
00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,760
Speaker 1: anybody else in the town. You don't really see characters

802
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:42,279
Speaker 1: like that. And he also brought a little bit of

803
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 1: comedic relief. That was another thing I wasn't really expecting.

804
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:48,280
Speaker 1: There were moments in this movie where people were laughing,

805
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:52,440
Speaker 1: where even at its most sinister times, there was a

806
00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:56,280
Speaker 1: little bit a levity and it wasn't cheesy, it wasn't forced,

807
00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:59,360
Speaker 1: It kind of happened naturally. There weren't moments that it

808
00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:02,160
Speaker 1: felt like, Oh, this is a punchline moment, or this

809
00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:04,920
Speaker 1: is something we're gonna do deliberately to make you laugh.

810
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:08,080
Speaker 1: But I think just the way these moments were sprinkled

811
00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:10,319
Speaker 1: in where you kind of took yourself back a little

812
00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:12,879
Speaker 1: bit and thought, hey, that's kind of funny, made me laugh,

813
00:41:12,880 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 1: it made everybody else laugh, And I think Austin Abrams's

814
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:18,360
Speaker 1: character was a big portion of those laughs. And I

815
00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:20,719
Speaker 1: think what I love the most about Zach Kraiger now

816
00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:22,720
Speaker 1: that he's going to be somebody that I pay attention

817
00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:25,879
Speaker 1: to every single film. Because I wasn't the biggest fan

818
00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:28,600
Speaker 1: of Barbarian, I enjoyed some elements of that movie. It

819
00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:31,600
Speaker 1: felt a little bit unconventional to me, much like some

820
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:33,719
Speaker 1: people are gonna go watch Weapons and feel like, oh,

821
00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:36,799
Speaker 1: this is so overhyped. That was kind of Barbarian for me.

822
00:41:37,160 --> 00:41:39,400
Speaker 1: What I do love about him is how much he

823
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 1: just has a passion for filmmaking. He said his three

824
00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:47,400
Speaker 1: biggest influences going into this movie were Magnolia, Hereditarian Prisoners,

825
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:50,440
Speaker 1: which I was like, those are all contemporary movies that

826
00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:52,840
Speaker 1: I feel like the general public has still seen. So

827
00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:55,879
Speaker 1: to have somebody making movies with those types of influences

828
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,319
Speaker 1: and be able to make something that pools from those

829
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:01,960
Speaker 1: inspirations but feel entirely different. I think we're in good

830
00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,480
Speaker 1: hands when it comes to horror. I think we're also

831
00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:06,680
Speaker 1: in good hands when it comes to horror because of

832
00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:09,399
Speaker 1: all the success that Warner Brothers has been having, which

833
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:13,359
Speaker 1: I've been telling you guys, horror is where it is

834
00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:16,120
Speaker 1: when it comes to creativity. It's also where it is

835
00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:19,719
Speaker 1: where it comes to strong female leads. Oftentimes that is

836
00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:21,640
Speaker 1: the only place I can go where I can see

837
00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:24,480
Speaker 1: somebody like Julia Gardner have a role where they're not

838
00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:27,920
Speaker 1: typecasts in any way, where their characters aren't pigeonholed. But

839
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:31,160
Speaker 1: Warner Brothers became the first studio in history to have

840
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:35,440
Speaker 1: six consecutive forty plus million dollar openings. And if you

841
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:37,640
Speaker 1: look at this list, you have Minecraft with one hundred

842
00:42:37,640 --> 00:42:41,160
Speaker 1: and sixty two point eight million, Sinners with forty eight million,

843
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:44,720
Speaker 1: Final Destination, Bloodlines with fifty million, f One with fifty

844
00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:48,000
Speaker 1: seven million, Superman with the one hundred and twenty five million,

845
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:52,279
Speaker 1: and Weapons with forty two point five million dollars. And

846
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:55,359
Speaker 1: out of those six movies, fifty percent of them are

847
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:58,760
Speaker 1: original movies, so Warner Brothers still chases those big ips.

848
00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:02,319
Speaker 1: If you look at Superman, Final Destination obviously is a

849
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:06,680
Speaker 1: long running franchise, Minecraft is a video game adaptation. But

850
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:08,760
Speaker 1: the threat in all these movies is that they also

851
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:12,879
Speaker 1: have really great directors who I believe truly are visionaries.

852
00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:15,960
Speaker 1: And I think that is something that they have prioritized

853
00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:19,560
Speaker 1: more than other studios and is why they are having

854
00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:23,120
Speaker 1: so much success as they are finding filmmakers that know

855
00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:26,600
Speaker 1: how to create a spectacle, and they also make movies

856
00:43:26,640 --> 00:43:29,600
Speaker 1: where it starts with story first. It just has to

857
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:32,160
Speaker 1: James Gunn, who is a part of Warner Brothers, is

858
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:34,839
Speaker 1: the biggest proponent of that right now, saying we're not

859
00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:38,160
Speaker 1: going to make a superhero movie unless we have the story.

860
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:41,200
Speaker 1: We're not just going to put some character out into

861
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:44,560
Speaker 1: the theaters because it has a big fandom. Man, We're

862
00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:48,440
Speaker 1: not throwing in random cameos or post credit scenes just

863
00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:52,120
Speaker 1: to introduce characters. If there's not a story there, we're

864
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:54,120
Speaker 1: not making the movie. And I think that is something

865
00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:58,200
Speaker 1: that Marvel and other studios need to learn. In this

866
00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:00,759
Speaker 1: world where a lot of people say they're superhero fatigue.

867
00:44:00,840 --> 00:44:02,920
Speaker 1: People have been saying that everything is a reboot and

868
00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:05,960
Speaker 1: a remake. For I think probably ever since I've been alive,

869
00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:09,520
Speaker 1: people have been saying nothing is original anymore, and those

870
00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:12,080
Speaker 1: movies still make a lot of money. It's not right

871
00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:14,960
Speaker 1: now that we're sick of everything being part of a

872
00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:17,800
Speaker 1: franchise or being a reboot. Is that we are sick

873
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:22,359
Speaker 1: of mediocre movies with lame stories that go nowhere. Even

874
00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:26,040
Speaker 1: Josh Brolin was doing press for this movie and saying,

875
00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:29,239
Speaker 1: I don't get on streaming services. Everything on there is

876
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:32,319
Speaker 1: so boring. Go see a movie like Weapons that is

877
00:44:32,360 --> 00:44:36,040
Speaker 1: truly unique and worthy of your time. So I think

878
00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:38,920
Speaker 1: for Warner Brothers they have figured that out with finding

879
00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:41,640
Speaker 1: great directors who know how to make these great stories

880
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:43,839
Speaker 1: come to life. So Weapons, for me, it was an

881
00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:47,520
Speaker 1: almost perfect movie. It's as close as you can get.

882
00:44:48,040 --> 00:44:51,040
Speaker 1: I think I've just been more hesitant now about handing

883
00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:54,319
Speaker 1: out fives, because now I truly feel that a five

884
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:58,000
Speaker 1: comes with time. It comes with seeing a movie maybe

885
00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:01,040
Speaker 1: for a second time in theaters, or spending more time

886
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:02,879
Speaker 1: with it at home than it becomes one I throw

887
00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:05,719
Speaker 1: into the rotation. So I feel like this is one

888
00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:08,240
Speaker 1: that could grow. But I also think that Zach Kreiger

889
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:10,960
Speaker 1: hasn't put out his best movie yet. So for Weapons,

890
00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:13,759
Speaker 1: I gave it four out of five kids running with

891
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:16,400
Speaker 1: their arms out like they're holding heavy bags at groceries

892
00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:22,240
Speaker 1: four point five out of five of those. It's time

893
00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:26,680
Speaker 1: to head down to movie mikes. Traylor Paul, the Hunter

894
00:45:26,920 --> 00:45:30,240
Speaker 1: becomes the Hunted and Predator bad Lands. When I saw

895
00:45:30,680 --> 00:45:33,640
Speaker 1: the trailer for this movie in theaters when it opened up,

896
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:36,080
Speaker 1: I was like, Ah, here we go, another generic sci

897
00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:39,560
Speaker 1: fi movie. I haven't been one to dive into any

898
00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:44,160
Speaker 1: of the Predator or Alien movies, but one movie earlier

899
00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:48,120
Speaker 1: this year may have changed my mind because this is

900
00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:51,360
Speaker 1: coming to us from the same director of Predator, Killer

901
00:45:51,400 --> 00:45:55,120
Speaker 1: of Killers, which was an animated movie on Hulu, and

902
00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:57,040
Speaker 1: when I sat down to watch that movie, I just

903
00:45:57,080 --> 00:46:00,080
Speaker 1: love animation. Been talking about that a lot in the

904
00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:02,880
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks. I'm just so drawn to it.

905
00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:05,239
Speaker 1: I think you can tell such great, powerful stories with it.

906
00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:08,440
Speaker 1: So I thought, Okay, I'm not fully into Predator, but

907
00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:11,000
Speaker 1: you have a new R rated animated movie in the

908
00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:14,760
Speaker 1: Predator universe. Let me check it out. And I freaking

909
00:46:15,239 --> 00:46:17,879
Speaker 1: loved it. It is right up my alley has very

910
00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:22,320
Speaker 1: sophisticated animation, some great action, and this is coming to

911
00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:26,080
Speaker 1: us from director Dan Kratchenberg, who also did Prey, which

912
00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:28,640
Speaker 1: is also a pretty big hit for Hulu, and ten

913
00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:32,239
Speaker 1: Cloverfield Lane, which was a pretty good Cloverfield movie, one

914
00:46:32,239 --> 00:46:34,840
Speaker 1: that also kind of went under the radar with John Goodman.

915
00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:37,200
Speaker 1: The original Cloverfield is another movie I just have an

916
00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:40,080
Speaker 1: affinity for back when found footage movies, we're kind of

917
00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:42,600
Speaker 1: having a moment in the late two thousands. But Predator

918
00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:45,959
Speaker 1: Badlands is not an animated movie. It is a live

919
00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:49,160
Speaker 1: action movie coming out on November seventh. It's about this

920
00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:51,680
Speaker 1: alien hunter who gets cast out from their klan and

921
00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:55,040
Speaker 1: then forms this unlikely alliance with this android was played

922
00:46:55,040 --> 00:46:57,080
Speaker 1: by el Fanning, except there's a little bit of a

923
00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:59,200
Speaker 1: twist on her character that you see in the trailer

924
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:01,480
Speaker 1: that we'll talk about more. They go on the journey

925
00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:04,919
Speaker 1: together and there's another bigger predator out to kill both

926
00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:06,840
Speaker 1: of them. It looks like this movie's coming out on

927
00:47:06,880 --> 00:47:09,520
Speaker 1: November seventh. Before we talk about it more, here's just

928
00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:13,040
Speaker 1: a little bit of the Predator bad Lands trailer. And

929
00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:16,120
Speaker 1: you've come to the most dangerous planet in the universe.

930
00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:20,160
Speaker 1: If you're after a creature that can't be killed, the

931
00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:27,680
Speaker 1: definitive apex predators. I could help you. Well, good luck

932
00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:33,759
Speaker 1: with your journey here. You're not the predator, here the prey.

933
00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:42,920
Speaker 1: We might not be alone in this hunt. This trailer

934
00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:45,479
Speaker 1: got me hyped. I immediately thought, when does this movie

935
00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:47,920
Speaker 1: come out? Because I cannot watch it soon enough. But

936
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:51,000
Speaker 1: it starts El Fanning, who you hear mostly in the

937
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:53,600
Speaker 1: trailer here because she is the one speaking English. She

938
00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:56,640
Speaker 1: is an android, and the reveal in the trailer as

939
00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:59,560
Speaker 1: as soon as Predator picks her up, she only has

940
00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:02,520
Speaker 1: half a her android bodies, so just the torso. It's

941
00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:05,719
Speaker 1: her torso and her arms and her head. It looks

942
00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:08,280
Speaker 1: like she's just been ripped apart. At the very beginning

943
00:48:08,320 --> 00:48:10,360
Speaker 1: of the trailer, she seems to be inside of some

944
00:48:10,560 --> 00:48:13,759
Speaker 1: repair chamber, so somebody had it out for her and

945
00:48:13,800 --> 00:48:15,600
Speaker 1: I can't wait to find out what happens more with

946
00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:19,680
Speaker 1: her story. But this movie only has two people listed

947
00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:24,080
Speaker 1: in the cast, l Fanning and Demetrius Schuster Colomuntaghi who

948
00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:27,680
Speaker 1: plays the Predator, but he doesn't even speak English in

949
00:48:27,760 --> 00:48:31,480
Speaker 1: this movie. He actually learned an entirely different language that

950
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:34,520
Speaker 1: was written for this movie by the same person who

951
00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:37,839
Speaker 1: created the language used in the Avatar movies, And those

952
00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:39,799
Speaker 1: are the kind of details that I really buy into

953
00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:43,360
Speaker 1: because this actor is primarily a stunt performer, which in

954
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:46,239
Speaker 1: this case is probably all you needed. But in order

955
00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:49,080
Speaker 1: to play this part, they learned this Predator language. And

956
00:48:49,120 --> 00:48:52,240
Speaker 1: even though this movie is in the Predator universe, which

957
00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:55,040
Speaker 1: isn't directly a part of the Alien universe, although they

958
00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:58,640
Speaker 1: combine themselves a lot, a lot of the companies and

959
00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:01,640
Speaker 1: characters kind of go go back and forth between each other,

960
00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:05,359
Speaker 1: and I think those franchises fit really well together. If

961
00:49:05,400 --> 00:49:09,839
Speaker 1: your favorite franchise is Alien or Predator, I feel like

962
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:12,479
Speaker 1: you are a really cool person because you don't care

963
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:15,759
Speaker 1: about the flashy things, Because I think the main ones

964
00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:18,960
Speaker 1: when it comes to sci fi franchises, you're either a

965
00:49:19,000 --> 00:49:21,600
Speaker 1: Star Wars fan or you're a trekkie, and those are

966
00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:24,600
Speaker 1: just very two distinct They're the big boys in town

967
00:49:24,640 --> 00:49:27,440
Speaker 1: when it comes to sci fi franchises. But if you

968
00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:31,000
Speaker 1: are quietly into Alien or Predator movies, I just feel

969
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:33,920
Speaker 1: like you don't care about anything. You don't care about

970
00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:36,560
Speaker 1: being cool. If you are into these movies, I also

971
00:49:36,560 --> 00:49:38,719
Speaker 1: feel like your favorite sport is like baseball. That's not

972
00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:41,759
Speaker 1: the sexiest of sports. It's not football, it's not basketball.

973
00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:46,000
Speaker 1: But you're just appreciate something that puts as much detail

974
00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:48,879
Speaker 1: into movies like this movie is doing, because they are

975
00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:51,399
Speaker 1: trying to expand this universe kind of in the same

976
00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:54,080
Speaker 1: world of where the animated movie I was just talking

977
00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:56,560
Speaker 1: about exists in this new type of world that they

978
00:49:56,600 --> 00:49:59,040
Speaker 1: are building. And I think Hulu is doing this with

979
00:49:59,080 --> 00:50:02,920
Speaker 1: twentieth Century Student because they have this property, so also

980
00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:05,600
Speaker 1: using the same director who did Pray. All these movies

981
00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:09,000
Speaker 1: kind of tie into each other. So I am enjoying

982
00:50:09,360 --> 00:50:12,239
Speaker 1: this entire universe that they are starting to build. And

983
00:50:12,280 --> 00:50:15,600
Speaker 1: I think if you're hopping into this right now, it

984
00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:17,440
Speaker 1: doesn't feel like you need to catch up with the

985
00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:20,040
Speaker 1: whole lot. You could maybe go watch Pray, go watch

986
00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:22,400
Speaker 1: Killer Killers, the animated movie, and then go see this

987
00:50:22,400 --> 00:50:25,080
Speaker 1: one in theaters, and now you are into this world,

988
00:50:25,120 --> 00:50:28,280
Speaker 1: which this trailer does a really good job at showing

989
00:50:28,320 --> 00:50:31,279
Speaker 1: you how immersive the world is going to be. And

990
00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:33,640
Speaker 1: that is really what stuck out to me about this trailer,

991
00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:35,239
Speaker 1: because what we heard in that was a little bit

992
00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:38,480
Speaker 1: of the story of them meeting him, not wanting to

993
00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:41,799
Speaker 1: team up with her. They are able to understand each other.

994
00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:46,200
Speaker 1: You see the subtitles of what the Predator is saying. Essentially,

995
00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:49,480
Speaker 1: he doesn't want to believe that he is now being hunted.

996
00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:52,600
Speaker 1: He's like, no, nobody hunts me. I am the Predator.

997
00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:54,840
Speaker 1: I'm going to take this person down. She tells him, like, no,

998
00:50:54,960 --> 00:50:58,319
Speaker 1: this person who is after you cannot be beat. So

999
00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:00,480
Speaker 1: I think we're going to see him, like we see

1000
00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:03,880
Speaker 1: in the trailer, go up against somebody really big, and

1001
00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:07,640
Speaker 1: to have somebody who is an unstoppable force that, for

1002
00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:11,040
Speaker 1: the most part in this franchise is the hunter hunting

1003
00:51:11,120 --> 00:51:14,200
Speaker 1: the humans. This movie is flipping the script and taking

1004
00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:17,880
Speaker 1: that antagonist and making them the protagonist. So I always

1005
00:51:17,960 --> 00:51:20,680
Speaker 1: love a good anti hero story. Maybe it's a story

1006
00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:23,239
Speaker 1: of redemption of somebody who has done bad things in

1007
00:51:23,239 --> 00:51:25,480
Speaker 1: the past and somebody who probably doesn't really want to

1008
00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:27,839
Speaker 1: do good things, but man, they are not gonna let

1009
00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:30,560
Speaker 1: somebody take them out at something that they are known for.

1010
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:33,040
Speaker 1: I first saw the trailer when we went to Fantastic

1011
00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:36,600
Speaker 1: Four and we saw that in Imax, and seeing this

1012
00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:40,759
Speaker 1: on a screen of that size just felt right. It

1013
00:51:40,800 --> 00:51:42,640
Speaker 1: felt like this movie should have come out in the

1014
00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:46,120
Speaker 1: dead of summer. But I think because of how competitive

1015
00:51:46,520 --> 00:51:50,080
Speaker 1: the twenty twenty five summer blockbuster season was, they maybe

1016
00:51:50,120 --> 00:51:53,279
Speaker 1: decided with the franchise like this that, even though it

1017
00:51:53,320 --> 00:51:56,800
Speaker 1: does have some power to its ip, it's not a Superman,

1018
00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:59,600
Speaker 1: it's not a Fantastic Four, it's not a Jurassic Park.

1019
00:52:00,120 --> 00:52:03,719
Speaker 1: Putting it out later in the year in November, I

1020
00:52:03,719 --> 00:52:06,120
Speaker 1: think maybe sets it up for having the most chance

1021
00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:09,880
Speaker 1: of success, because if I know nerds, they love coming

1022
00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:12,439
Speaker 1: out to support any movie that they want to see

1023
00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:15,399
Speaker 1: at any time of the year. But for people who

1024
00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:18,880
Speaker 1: are just casually going to movies, I think that is

1025
00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:21,799
Speaker 1: a good time to capitalize on things because in November

1026
00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:24,880
Speaker 1: we get a lot of the Oscar bait movies, we

1027
00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:28,120
Speaker 1: get some family movies that gear up more towards Thanksgiving.

1028
00:52:28,600 --> 00:52:31,320
Speaker 1: But kind of that sweet spot is that November seventh

1029
00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:35,200
Speaker 1: weekend where we've seen all the horror movies we wanted

1030
00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:38,120
Speaker 1: to see in October, and I think once October thirty

1031
00:52:38,160 --> 00:52:40,279
Speaker 1: first hits for a lot of people, they're over that.

1032
00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:43,280
Speaker 1: Even though I believe horror can be seen year round,

1033
00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:45,759
Speaker 1: it doesn't have a specific time for me. But they

1034
00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:48,960
Speaker 1: tend to put out a lot of horror movies, specifically

1035
00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:52,000
Speaker 1: around Halloween, and then once November hit, you're like, oh,

1036
00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:54,440
Speaker 1: that's disgusting. I don't want to see that anymore. So

1037
00:52:54,560 --> 00:52:57,719
Speaker 1: November seventh for a Predator bad Lands movie, I think

1038
00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:01,520
Speaker 1: is also fantastic timing. I think it could really capitalize

1039
00:53:01,560 --> 00:53:04,600
Speaker 1: with some strong marketing because I think this movie does

1040
00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:07,480
Speaker 1: have the power to be a hit because it is

1041
00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:10,320
Speaker 1: the seventh film in this mainline series, in the ninth

1042
00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:14,000
Speaker 1: film overall in the franchise. I can't wait to see

1043
00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:17,479
Speaker 1: all the other characters that are gonna arise also hunting them.

1044
00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:20,400
Speaker 1: There might be some callbacks to Pray, which that movie

1045
00:53:20,400 --> 00:53:23,480
Speaker 1: took back way in seventeen nineteen. It's not a sequel

1046
00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:25,799
Speaker 1: to that movie. It is still a standalone movie, but

1047
00:53:25,840 --> 00:53:27,839
Speaker 1: I feel like there might be some little connection there,

1048
00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:30,000
Speaker 1: at least a nod to that movie, because we do

1049
00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:31,719
Speaker 1: see some Easter EGX that a out the trailer, and

1050
00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:33,360
Speaker 1: I don't know why I'm excited just to see a

1051
00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:36,239
Speaker 1: movie that is going to force people to read subtitles

1052
00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:39,040
Speaker 1: in theaters. But again, this movie is coming out on

1053
00:53:39,080 --> 00:53:43,640
Speaker 1: November seventh, And that was this week's edition of Movie

1054
00:53:43,719 --> 00:53:46,319
Speaker 1: li Frame or bar and that is going to do

1055
00:53:46,360 --> 00:53:49,080
Speaker 1: it for another episode here of the podcast. But before

1056
00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:51,160
Speaker 1: I go, I gotta give my listeners shout out of

1057
00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:54,200
Speaker 1: the week. This week, I'm going over to my email,

1058
00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:56,960
Speaker 1: which you can always send me an email, Moviemike d

1059
00:53:57,160 --> 00:54:00,000
Speaker 1: at gmail dot com. All my socials are always linked

1060
00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:02,959
Speaker 1: in the episode notes, but this week I'm shouting out Tim,

1061
00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:05,279
Speaker 1: who wrote me and said love the podcast and thought

1062
00:54:05,320 --> 00:54:07,319
Speaker 1: you'd be the best person to ask. So I keep

1063
00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:10,280
Speaker 1: seeing all these offers for one month free of different

1064
00:54:10,320 --> 00:54:13,120
Speaker 1: streaming services, and I'm always tempted, but I never sign up.

1065
00:54:13,160 --> 00:54:15,880
Speaker 1: Why because they always ask for a credit card up

1066
00:54:15,960 --> 00:54:18,719
Speaker 1: front and I don't fully trust it. My question is,

1067
00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:21,520
Speaker 1: how do these free trials really work? Am I being

1068
00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:24,000
Speaker 1: overly cautious? I just feel like the second I enter

1069
00:54:24,040 --> 00:54:26,640
Speaker 1: my credit card info, I'm going to forget to cancel

1070
00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:29,200
Speaker 1: and get charged. Do you use these free trials? Is

1071
00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:31,920
Speaker 1: there a safe way to take advantage of them without

1072
00:54:32,040 --> 00:54:36,239
Speaker 1: getting burned? Signed Tim, And here's my answer. I get

1073
00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:38,840
Speaker 1: the hesitation. I hate putting in my credit card info

1074
00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:41,640
Speaker 1: for a free trial because I'm, like you said, it's free.

1075
00:54:41,680 --> 00:54:44,319
Speaker 1: But the reason they do that is because as soon

1076
00:54:44,360 --> 00:54:46,680
Speaker 1: as that one month is done, they're going to charge

1077
00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:49,320
Speaker 1: your credit card and for the most part, continue to

1078
00:54:49,400 --> 00:54:52,360
Speaker 1: charge you every month. You've just signed up at that point,

1079
00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:55,560
Speaker 1: but they give you that first month free as incentive.

1080
00:54:55,960 --> 00:54:58,319
Speaker 1: The time most recently I've done this was last year

1081
00:54:58,360 --> 00:55:01,200
Speaker 1: Peacock ran a promotion during Black Friday. It was like

1082
00:55:01,480 --> 00:55:04,479
Speaker 1: twenty dollars for an entire year of Peacock, and I thought,

1083
00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:07,480
Speaker 1: to myself, even if I don't use it that often,

1084
00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:10,959
Speaker 1: twenty bucks is a great deal for an entire year

1085
00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:13,680
Speaker 1: of a streaming service. And that was also around the

1086
00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:17,640
Speaker 1: time when the NFL was starting to put games specifically

1087
00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:21,880
Speaker 1: on Peacock, also with WWE putting their live events on Peacock,

1088
00:55:21,920 --> 00:55:23,759
Speaker 1: which that is going to go away next year. It's

1089
00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:27,600
Speaker 1: going to move over all the way to ESPN. But

1090
00:55:27,719 --> 00:55:30,880
Speaker 1: I thought, for that low amount, I could buy it,

1091
00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:32,799
Speaker 1: and even if I don't use it, it doesn't feel

1092
00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:34,760
Speaker 1: like a waste of money, because what is twenty bucks

1093
00:55:34,920 --> 00:55:38,160
Speaker 1: spread out over a year. So what I also did,

1094
00:55:38,719 --> 00:55:42,200
Speaker 1: I love scheduling me in email. I schedule myself on

1095
00:55:42,400 --> 00:55:46,200
Speaker 1: email to cancel it as soon as I hit sign up,

1096
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:48,880
Speaker 1: one year away from the date that it's going to

1097
00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:50,560
Speaker 1: charge me. So like the day before he's going to

1098
00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:53,160
Speaker 1: charge me, I have an email schedule telling me to

1099
00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:56,160
Speaker 1: go cancel it. Peacock, at least, in my experience, has

1100
00:55:56,160 --> 00:55:58,080
Speaker 1: been an easy one to cancel. That is the one

1101
00:55:58,080 --> 00:56:01,080
Speaker 1: streaming service that I've just not kept insistently. Sometimes I'll

1102
00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:03,279
Speaker 1: have it, sometimes i'll cancel it because sometimes they have

1103
00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:05,480
Speaker 1: exclusive movies that I want to watch and I'll get

1104
00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:07,879
Speaker 1: it for like a month, or I'll utilize a free

1105
00:56:07,920 --> 00:56:10,880
Speaker 1: trial or take advantage of a sale like this. But

1106
00:56:11,000 --> 00:56:13,319
Speaker 1: that one lets you cancel pretty easy. I don't know

1107
00:56:13,360 --> 00:56:15,960
Speaker 1: how easy some of the other ones are to cancel,

1108
00:56:16,120 --> 00:56:19,040
Speaker 1: because haven't had to do that. Although sometimes when you cancel,

1109
00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:21,359
Speaker 1: they're like, no, don't go well over the price. So

1110
00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:24,600
Speaker 1: my advice to you is you might be a little

1111
00:56:24,600 --> 00:56:27,279
Speaker 1: bit overly cautious. They won't charge you. They can't just

1112
00:56:27,680 --> 00:56:30,000
Speaker 1: straight up charge you if you cancel before that, So

1113
00:56:30,160 --> 00:56:32,600
Speaker 1: just schedule an email, schedule a text on your phone,

1114
00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:35,200
Speaker 1: write it on your calendar, depending on how old school

1115
00:56:35,239 --> 00:56:38,200
Speaker 1: you are, and they will not charge you. Just make

1116
00:56:38,239 --> 00:56:41,160
Speaker 1: sure you have that reminder because if you don't, you're

1117
00:56:41,200 --> 00:56:43,520
Speaker 1: gonna get charged. And there are so many streaming services

1118
00:56:43,640 --> 00:56:46,439
Speaker 1: right now, I hate the way everybody is shifting things.

1119
00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:49,200
Speaker 1: It's getting annoying. I don't know what I have and

1120
00:56:49,239 --> 00:56:51,920
Speaker 1: what I don't have. Some things don't even feel exclusive anymore.

1121
00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:55,359
Speaker 1: We're basically just going back to cable. So I think

1122
00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:56,759
Speaker 1: that's the way this is going to go down in

1123
00:56:56,800 --> 00:56:59,360
Speaker 1: three to five years, where all these companies realize that

1124
00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:02,440
Speaker 1: they would make more money if they all just merge together.

1125
00:57:02,600 --> 00:57:05,080
Speaker 1: So we're going to go back to cable eventually. It's

1126
00:57:05,200 --> 00:57:07,640
Speaker 1: just not going to be like it used to be, hopefully,

1127
00:57:07,880 --> 00:57:10,200
Speaker 1: But they're not a scam. Just remember to cancel before

1128
00:57:10,200 --> 00:57:11,960
Speaker 1: they charge you. So thank you for that question. If

1129
00:57:11,960 --> 00:57:14,480
Speaker 1: you ever have questions like that, you can email me

1130
00:57:14,560 --> 00:57:16,240
Speaker 1: like Tim did, or you can send me a DM

1131
00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:18,840
Speaker 1: even if it's not directly podcast related. You just have

1132
00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:21,280
Speaker 1: a question you want to know, hit me up. Thank
