We'll also 19 00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 1: do a movie review on a movie called Bad Trip 20 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 1: on Netflix, and then we'll talk movie news. A lot 21 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 1: to talk about on this week's episode. You ready to go. 22 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 1: I'm ready. Let's get started. In a world where everyone 23 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 1: and their mother has a podcast, one man stands to 24 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,319 Speaker 1: infiltrate the ears of listeners like never before in a 25 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:14,040 Speaker 1: movie podcast, A man with so much movie knowledge. He's 26 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: basically like a walking on mtvt with classes from the 27 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 1: Nashville Podcast Network Movie Movie Podcast. Alright, so unpopular movie 28 00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: opinion is what we're talking about today. My first one 29 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: that I want to get into is that romantic comedies 30 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,720 Speaker 1: are the worst genre of movies. Interesting. I think that 31 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 1: this opinion, this is my opinion, so this is what 32 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 1: I like. The first one that came to my mind 33 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 1: is that I don't like romantic comedies. I think that's 34 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 1: the worst genre, and I don't think they're anybody's favorite. 35 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 1: But I can name a few romantic comedies that you like. 36 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:57,640 Speaker 1: Which one, yes, Okay, name another one. Serendipity is kind 37 00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 1: of a romantic comedy. Yeah, But I just think that 38 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: on a romantic comedy, Never Been Kissed, I don't even 39 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:07,279 Speaker 1: think consider that a romantic comedy because I think really 40 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: romantic comedies they're neither romantic or there or neither. States. 41 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 1: I don't like that movie. I don't I just think 42 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: that if somebody says their favorite genre a movie is 43 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 1: romantic comedies, they don't actually like movies at all. It's 44 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: kind of like somebody saying that their favorite genre of 45 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: music is soft rock. Nobody's like, man, I love me 46 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: some soft rock, Like my go to is playing soft rock. 47 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 1: It's nobody's favorite. What would constitute soft rock something you 48 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 1: would hear on what they call adult contemporary radio dolls. 49 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,519 Speaker 1: They're moral, I would say alternative, but yeah, a little bit. 50 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: Do you know anybody whose favorite band is the Google Dolls, 51 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 1: depending on one day of the week, sometimes mine. Okay, 52 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 1: I would never consider your favorite band of the Google Dolls. 53 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: Your favorite genre of music is not soft rock. Same 54 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: way I don't think your favorite genre of movie is 55 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 1: romantic comedy. It's up there, okay. I just when it 56 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 1: comes to all of the genres of movies, it's a 57 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,640 Speaker 1: movie genre that I never sit down and I'm like 58 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: excited to dive into one. I'll watch it because it's 59 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 1: on TV or if something you want to watch. I 60 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 1: just don't trust anybody whose favorite genre is romantic comedy. 61 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 1: That is my and it's an unpopular opinion. My next 62 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 1: one is that movie popcorn is the worst movie snack? 63 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: Do you agree on that one? I would agree because 64 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: when we go to the movies, I just feel like, 65 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: of all the things I would want to eat while 66 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: watching a movie, I don't want to eat popcorn. Okay, 67 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: but you also don't eat anything other than like a 68 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: quest bar that you're sneaking and my personally go to 69 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: a movie, So you're not really the best judge of 70 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: movie snacks now, Okay, then for you who loves a 71 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: good movie snack, why is it not your favorite? If 72 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 1: you agree with me on this, well, it just makes 73 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 1: you really thirsty. I just feel like, if it's fresh, 74 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: can go for some movie theater popcorn, but if you 75 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: go at an off time, it's stale. Yeah, it's very 76 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: rare to get a good tub of popcorn. And I 77 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: think the really thing that I even like it for 78 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 1: is all the butter. It's like extra, you gotta throw 79 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 1: on so much butter and salt, Like, what's the point 80 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 1: of the popcorn? There's better snacks the candy or if 81 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 1: you go to a movie theater with like actual food, 82 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:24,960 Speaker 1: tater tots is a great movie snack. No, they were 83 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: in like a takeout. I would eat a tube of 84 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: tater talk um Alamo Drafthouse. What you're talking about all 85 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: the time? Miss it so much. Chips in CA so 86 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,240 Speaker 1: they have a big soft pretzel that comes with mustard 87 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 1: and beer cheese. There's great movie snacks. I just don't 88 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: know where when they were deciding what would be the 89 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,039 Speaker 1: staple movie snack to sell in movie theaters that popcorn 90 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 1: became king? Like? Was it just because it was like 91 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 1: the thing that wouldn't sell otherwise they can only sell 92 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:50,799 Speaker 1: that in movie theaters. I wouldn't go to a restaurant 93 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,600 Speaker 1: in order popcorn trip, but I will say we eat 94 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: popcorn a lot at home. Yeah, but it's different at home. 95 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,359 Speaker 1: We love popcorn. I just feel like you can you 96 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 1: don't have to pay ten dollars for a tub of 97 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 1: it at home. I'm gonna get stuck in your teeth. 98 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:02,919 Speaker 1: You can go deal with it in me. You're not 99 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 1: trying the whole movie focusing on a kernel. It stuck 100 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: in the back of your throat. That's the worst. And 101 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: then you get thirsty and then you have to go 102 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: pay another ten dollars to get a drink, buying like 103 00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 1: the extra arch have you not paid for movie snacks. 104 00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 1: It's like ten bucks for a drink. The last few 105 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 1: times I went to a movie, it's with you, So 106 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 1: I think you paid for my movie. My next What 107 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 1: would people call a popular opinion about movies is that 108 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: the beginning of Up is not that sad. I just 109 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 1: think that when that movie first came out, everybody was like, 110 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,600 Speaker 1: you gotta go see this movie because it's so sad, 111 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 1: and I saw it. I think the first weekend it 112 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 1: came out. I think one of the few movies I've 113 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:43,080 Speaker 1: actually seen twice in theaters. But either it's because I'm 114 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 1: a monster and don't feel anything. I just never thought 115 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 1: it was that sad. Now, you don't always get emotions 116 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: staring movies, like you're not a monster, I do, I know, 117 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:58,840 Speaker 1: I don't know. Like sometimes people ask me like, hey, 118 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: I want to watch a movie that will make me sad. 119 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: I need to cry. Nothing has done that for me, 120 00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:08,279 Speaker 1: like very rarely have I ever cried or gotten cry. Yeah, 121 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 1: they don't real life stuff. I've seen you cry, yeah, yeah, 122 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 1: but movies, I don't know. Movie just don't make me crying. 123 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: You know, I'm an emotional person, Like I'll cry over 124 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,600 Speaker 1: like sweet video on Instagram. I follow like the good 125 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 1: News movement account any story of like people being reunited, 126 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 1: like just like cute little puppies. That makes me cry. 127 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 1: But movies don't make me cry, which is weird. So 128 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 1: there's something about movies. I think that's a very hard 129 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,279 Speaker 1: emotion to get out of somebody when watching a movie, 130 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 1: to make them cry. It's like a dog dies. Yeah, 131 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 1: I'm probably crying at that. Yeah, but it's very rare 132 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 1: that something will move me so much to the point 133 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 1: of tears. I'll feel sad. You got really sad during 134 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 1: um oh, what was the one, Jake Almizon, we watched it. Yes, 135 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: you got really sad during that that you were super 136 00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: emotional after. That's as close as I've come to crying 137 00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 1: very long feelings. You have emotions. You're not a monster 138 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: and would be marrying you. That one was because it 139 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: was very realistic and you had time to get to 140 00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 1: know those characters and feel what they were feeling. And 141 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: it was a situation I'd never thought of before, and 142 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: I placed myself in that if I had to go 143 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 1: through that with you. I think that's why that one 144 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: hit me. Yeah, I think relatable movies, Yeah, it has 145 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: to be super relatable. So I think before that maybe 146 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 1: the closest thing was an Avengers Endgame, but that was 147 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,559 Speaker 1: ruined because I watched it in theaters and the person 148 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: next to me was like fumbling with their phone and 149 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: at the point you're supposed to be the most out 150 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: in the movie, they were like trying to take a 151 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 1: call and walking up out of the seat, and I 152 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: was like, you're ruining my moment here, lady. But yeah, 153 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 1: that's the only time I've come close to crying. My 154 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 1: next what would be unpopular movie opinion is that I 155 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 1: don't mind spoilers. And I know I do this podcast 156 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: where I keep it spoiler free and that's mainly because 157 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: people get so upset about spoilers. But I feel like, 158 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: if you're ruining a movie, the really the only thing 159 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: you can say is a spoiler is that somebody's gonna 160 00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: die in the movie. And I don't think that's that'd 161 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 1: be a good a deal. If the movie was a 162 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,280 Speaker 1: really good movie, the fact that you know that somebody's 163 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: gonna die shouldn't ruin it for you. You should still 164 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 1: be able to enjoy it. But what if you know 165 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: the exact person that does, it's still fine. Interesting I've 166 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: known several movies that have been spoiled for me because 167 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: they come out and either I don't have a chance 168 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 1: to watch them right away, or there's such a big 169 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 1: movie that you find out what happens because everybody talking 170 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 1: about it, and it doesn't take anything away. So what 171 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 1: somebody died, that's probably gonna happen in a major movie 172 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: that people are going to see, so I don't think 173 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: it takes anything away from that experience, except like the 174 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: dead thing doesn't bother me if somebody dies, so what 175 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,280 Speaker 1: they were gonna die? I think when it comes to 176 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:42,600 Speaker 1: maybe ruining a twist, but even telling somebody that there's 177 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,840 Speaker 1: gonna be a twist in the movie is spoiling in itself. 178 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:46,640 Speaker 1: But if it's a really good twist, I don't think 179 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 1: it matters. So they don't really bother me. But for 180 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: the sake of people who are bothered by them, and 181 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 1: the fact there is kind of a thing around ruining 182 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: things for other people that are going to watch them 183 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 1: and want to enjoy them to the full ability, that's 184 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 1: why keep this podcast spoil it for you. But for me, 185 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: I would listen to anything with spoilers because if they 186 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 1: talk about it in a way that's interesting to me 187 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 1: and reveal a plot point it would make me want 188 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: to go watch that more. So that's why I don't 189 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 1: mind spoilers. Have you ever had a movie ruined? I 190 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 1: guess your brother right recently on my youngest brother ruined 191 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 1: Ford v. Ferrari for me and I don't ruin it here, 192 00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 1: but he it's not a spoiler. And I was like, dude, 193 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,839 Speaker 1: and he just he's very just like a matter of fact, 194 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: and he looked at me and he was like, it's 195 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,719 Speaker 1: based on a true story. It happened. You should know. 196 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 1: That's the other thing when you spoil. He had a 197 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: fair point. The rule goes straight out the window, and 198 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,199 Speaker 1: it's a movie based on a true story. But I 199 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: don't know why that's the thing, because just because it 200 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 1: is a true story, it actually happened. If you don't 201 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 1: know the story, then it's still ruining for you. And 202 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:49,599 Speaker 1: a lot of movies they're told are telling stories that 203 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: a lot of people haven't heard. You spotlight them, so 204 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,559 Speaker 1: you're still ruining a movie there, So again for me, 205 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 1: I don't really care. On that same kind of note 206 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 1: is I don't mind predictable movies. I know some people, 207 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 1: mainly critics, when they rip into movies about being predictable. 208 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 1: I don't think that's a bad thing. I like the 209 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:09,840 Speaker 1: comfortability of watching a movie and within the first ten 210 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:12,760 Speaker 1: minutes knowing exactly how it's going to happen if it's 211 00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: done well. There's a reason that formulas work for sitting 212 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 1: with books. I read a lot and I'll kind of 213 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:21,319 Speaker 1: predict the ending and it's still good, like because you 214 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: don't know, you know, point A to point B, what's 215 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 1: going to happen, but you don't know what I'll is 216 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,320 Speaker 1: going to happen to get to point bach, you know 217 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: how it's going to end, but you don't know the 218 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 1: twist and turns. And movies, like books, are like anything. 219 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: They have formulas that are proven to work and just 220 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,959 Speaker 1: when it comes when it comes to storytelling, that's how 221 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 1: it works. Here's the characters, here's the scenario, here's the problem. 222 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:45,719 Speaker 1: This is where it all goes wrong. This is where 223 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 1: everybody gets I mean, movies, are you predictable? Sometimes? Every 224 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 1: and these are both books and movies. Every Nicholas Spark 225 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: books and movie. You know they're going to fall in love, 226 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: something's going to happen. Am I still gonna pay fifteen 227 00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 1: dollars to buy the book and probably twelve dollars from 228 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: movie ticket to go see the movie. Absolutely, do I 229 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: know what's gonna happen? Yes? Is it still entertaining? Yeah, 230 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 1: That's how I feel about those. Um My other one 231 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 1: is that I'm not that excited for Phase four of 232 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 1: Marvel movies. And it was kind of after Endgame and 233 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 1: Spider Man Far from Home that all the really characters 234 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 1: that I care about aren't in the Marvel universe anymore. 235 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,319 Speaker 1: And there first of all, the movies have been delayed 236 00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: so long that it's hard for me to get excited 237 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 1: again about going to watch Marvel movies. What about the 238 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: next Spider Man movie? Yeah, but not even that much. Really, like, oh, 239 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,960 Speaker 1: I'm hyped for that? What about Black Widow? If it 240 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,080 Speaker 1: was a year ago, I would have been more excited 241 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 1: about it. It's I wasn't super excited when it was 242 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 1: coming out to begin with. I thought you were. I 243 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,199 Speaker 1: got a little bit like, Okay, I've had kind of 244 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 1: my feel of Marvel movies. I mean I've been watching 245 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 1: I mean since the first one came out in two 246 00:11:55,720 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 1: thousand and eight. That's what twelve years of Marvel movies, 247 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 1: I felt like they should have taken a little bit 248 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: more of like. I think that's also why we like 249 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: the TV show so much more now. Like One Division, 250 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: I loved One Division, Falcon and Winter Soldier. I'm undecended 251 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: and not quite there yet, but i just love those 252 00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 1: characters so much that I'm not ready to dive into 253 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,719 Speaker 1: all these other new characters that they're rolling out, and 254 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 1: also the characters that they are keeping. It's like, I'm 255 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 1: just not that excited. I would agree to disagree about 256 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,199 Speaker 1: Spider Man. At least you really liked the last one. 257 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 1: It was so good, it was really good. It's just 258 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 1: hard for me to be excited about them again the 259 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: same way I was while the Avengers were still happening. 260 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,199 Speaker 1: So I think that's where I met on those movies. 261 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: My other unpopular opinion is that movie trailers are kind 262 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: of dumb. You know, I don't watch movie trailers. We'll 263 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: sit down to watch a movie and you're like, have 264 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:53,839 Speaker 1: you watched the trailer for this? And I mean no. 265 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,959 Speaker 1: And I went for a very long time not watching 266 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 1: movie trailers, but once I started doing this podcast, I 267 00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 1: had to start watching them more. I just think that 268 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 1: people get overhyped on the idea of a movie trailer 269 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 1: so much, and they're picking out I get annoyed by 270 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 1: theories early on. And somebody will watch a movie trailer 271 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: and come out with all these theories of what's going 272 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 1: to happen, and then they don't happen, and I just 273 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: get annoyed of Like I don't read anyone's series. Oh, 274 00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,960 Speaker 1: I see a lot of those, And I just think 275 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 1: that trailers are a very brief kind of indication of 276 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 1: whether the movie will be good or not. And I 277 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: don't really buy into the hype at the beginning, or 278 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: if it's a comedy, they show all of the funny 279 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 1: boats on the trailers. That's annoying. That is very annoying. 280 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: So I just don't see the appeal of trailers and like, oh, 281 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 1: the trailer is gonna drop on this day, Like I'm 282 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 1: good with it. I'll read about it, I'll get to 283 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 1: know what's going to happen beforehand. But I kind of 284 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:49,720 Speaker 1: rather just go and experience the movie without the trailer. 285 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 1: I will say, and we're going to talk about this 286 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 1: movie later, the one we watched last night, that trip. Yeah, 287 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 1: I kind of wish i'd watched the trailer for that one. Yeah, 288 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 1: probably for that movie. I guess sometimes if if I'm 289 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: undecided on a movie, the trailer will work because you 290 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:08,679 Speaker 1: can kind of tell a little bit more of like, 291 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 1: will this even be up to quality of my time? 292 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 1: So in that case, yes, But when it's to like 293 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 1: a really highly anticipated movie, I don't need to watch 294 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 1: the trailer. I'll just go watch it. Along those same lines, 295 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 1: the trailer I did watch and was excited for it 296 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 1: was a new Suicide Squad movie, and I love that movie, 297 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:29,560 Speaker 1: and people hate that movie. I think people just hate 298 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 1: DC in general, and I don't even consider myself a 299 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 1: d C fan, but I was one of the very 300 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 1: few people who actually enjoyed Suicide Squad. And every time 301 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 1: I talk about Suicide Squad, Harley Quinn or Wonder Woman, 302 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:44,560 Speaker 1: everybody thinks I'm an idiot and deserved did not have 303 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 1: a movie podcast because I don't know what I'm talking about. 304 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 1: And along those same lines of like liking sometimes predictable 305 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 1: movies or a movie doesn't have to be up to 306 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 1: I don't even know how to explain it. I just 307 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 1: liked it. It was enjoyable. I got out of it 308 00:14:57,120 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: what I wanted it felt like a roller coaster, and 309 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 1: I felt like those movies are just so different than 310 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:04,880 Speaker 1: the Marvel movies that there's a little bit of a 311 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 1: charm to them, aside from maybe Batman versus Superman, which 312 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 1: was boring. That was very bad. I agree with that one. 313 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 1: I saw some people fighting for that one. I won't 314 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,040 Speaker 1: get on board with that one, but I think the 315 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 1: Suicide Squad has some potential to be good. I've never 316 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 1: seen Suicide Squad. I like Charlie quinnough. Yeah, so again 317 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: I get ripped for that. The other movie I get 318 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 1: ripped for liking was Gravity, and I think that was 319 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 1: a great movie. I don't even remember what happened. It's 320 00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: Sandra Bull like, basically what the movie because I just 321 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 1: don't remember the plot. I think it's just because I 322 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 1: love space movies. But my other unpopular opinion is that 323 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 1: I didn't like Interstellar with Matthew McConaughey. It was so long, 324 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 1: it was like and really confusing. Yeah, and the thing 325 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:48,240 Speaker 1: is that movie has all the things that I love, warmholes, astronauts, 326 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 1: space time travel, Matt McConaughey, but I found that movie 327 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 1: so boring. I think in general, Christopher Nolan is an 328 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: overrated director, Like I love what he did with the 329 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 1: Dark Knight trilogy, but aside from that, I think he 330 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 1: makes very pretentious movies. They're so confusing. Tenant. Yeah, Like, 331 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 1: I don't like watching movies to where after I watched it, 332 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 1: I'm confused by what I just watched. I don't want 333 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 1: to have to ask questions during the movie and be 334 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 1: so confused. Like if I'm confused in the first ten minutes, 335 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 1: I'm done. Yeah. I think at one point while I 336 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: was watching that movie, you asked me what was going on. 337 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: I was like, I don't know, I'm trying to figure 338 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 1: it out. I did, and then I was like, I'm out. 339 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 1: My final opinion unpopular opinion before I get to when 340 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 1: the listener sent in was that I don't get Meryl Streep. 341 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 1: Do you love Meryl Streep. I do love Meryl Street. 342 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: I've just I think it's because whenever award season rolls 343 00:16:40,760 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 1: around and if she's nominated for something, she clears house 344 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 1: because she's Meryl Streep. I've never watched the Meryl Streep 345 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 1: movie that I enjoy, and I just don't get her. 346 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: That is my I guess I'm the one person who 347 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 1: doesn't like Meryl Streep or any of her movies. I 348 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 1: don't know some ones that listeners sent in. I think 349 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,880 Speaker 1: the main one I saw was that Quentin Tarantino is overrated, 350 00:17:02,440 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 1: which I was surprised by, but I kind of get that. 351 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:11,280 Speaker 1: I feel like Quentin Tarantino makes movies almost like just 352 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 1: for him, Like I kind of like he's such a 353 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:18,040 Speaker 1: cinophile that he makes movies for the sake of like 354 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,160 Speaker 1: preserving the history of the Golden Age of Hollywood. He 355 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 1: does movies that he would want to watch, and if 356 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: you like them or don't like them, he really doesn't care. 357 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 1: That's kind of how I feel like he makes movies, 358 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 1: and it will also make them so long that you're 359 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:33,640 Speaker 1: either invested in him and love him or you won't 360 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 1: like his work. So I could see where people come from. 361 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 1: I do like Quentin Tarantino's movies, and anyone that he 362 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,719 Speaker 1: puts out, I'll go watch it. So but I can 363 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,400 Speaker 1: see where people stand on that one. The second most 364 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:47,439 Speaker 1: popular unpopular opinion, that's the weird thing to say. The 365 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:49,439 Speaker 1: second one I saw the most was that Will ferrell 366 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:54,880 Speaker 1: movies are not funny. Uh. I mean, his early stuff 367 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 1: was when he got his big hits and was kind 368 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 1: of became a household name, and then later I felt 369 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 1: like he was just putting out a bunch of movies 370 00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 1: that nobody really cared for. But I still think he's funny. 371 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:08,879 Speaker 1: I just think that over time, what we find funny 372 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: changes and if you watch his movies when you're younger, 373 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: you probably found him a lot more funny. Now he's 374 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:17,680 Speaker 1: kind of doing the same thing he was doing ten 375 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 1: years ago, but it's just not as funny. Do you 376 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:22,720 Speaker 1: find him funny? I think the most recent one that 377 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 1: he's been in that I laughed. I was like, Daddy's 378 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,199 Speaker 1: Home and Daddy's Home to those are pretty funny and 379 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 1: it's a ridiculous premise. Yeah, so stupid. Yeah. Other than that, 380 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 1: I'm like, I mean, you get what you get with 381 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 1: Will Ferrell. He acts like a man child is a 382 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 1: great way to describe it, and that is that is 383 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 1: Will Ferrell. So I could see where people think that. 384 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 1: At number three was a lot of people saying they 385 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,919 Speaker 1: can't get into Star Wars movies or I've never watched 386 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:46,919 Speaker 1: them and don't get them. And I was kind of 387 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 1: on this camp when it came to the original movies. 388 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:52,919 Speaker 1: I didn't go back and watch those until the newer 389 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:56,120 Speaker 1: movies came out into two thousand tens, And when those 390 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 1: came out and I was like, well, I actually enjoy these. 391 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 1: I went back and watched the originals and like them, 392 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 1: but I do feel like they're a bit overhyped. Like 393 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,880 Speaker 1: I don't consider myself still now a Star Wars fan. 394 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 1: I'll go watch the new Star Wars movies, but I 395 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 1: don't get super into like knowing all the plot points 396 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 1: and all the characters. There's just so much on that 397 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 1: and there's a lot and if you really want to 398 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:17,679 Speaker 1: call yourself a Star Wars fan, I feel like you 399 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:21,120 Speaker 1: have to be way more knowledgeable than I have time 400 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 1: to invest in that franchise. So I've seen them all. Now, 401 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say they're my favorite. I wouldn't even put 402 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 1: them in my top five, So I get why people 403 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 1: don't like them or want to invest the time in them. 404 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: Have you seen all the Star Wars. I don't think 405 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 1: I've seen all of the original I think i've seen 406 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 1: most of them though, and yeah, I like them, but 407 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:42,440 Speaker 1: it's also hard to keep track because they came out 408 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 1: in such like spurts. I can't go back and watch 409 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 1: the original ones I've tried, and it's also just something 410 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:54,160 Speaker 1: about watching older movies that I just can't get that into. 411 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: But then I think about when we have kids, are 412 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:57,720 Speaker 1: gonna watch movies that we love now and they're gonna 413 00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 1: be like, why does that. I've been thinking about that too, 414 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,440 Speaker 1: because I'm gonna be watching the Marvel movies for till 415 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:06,400 Speaker 1: I'm old, and imagine our kids, like, these graphics are bad? 416 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 1: Who are these actors? Care? Kids are gonna use Lord graphics? 417 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 1: Our kids are? You probably probably what do you mean? 418 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 1: This is in four K? But anyway, yeah, I could 419 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: see that one. And then one of the biggest ones 420 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:26,359 Speaker 1: I saw was that Forrest Gump is overrated, And for 421 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: the time that Forrest Gump came out, I really only 422 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 1: watched it because it was known. It's such a great movie, 423 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: but I don't think it's one of my favorites, and 424 00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:37,880 Speaker 1: I could see it being people calling it overrated and dull. 425 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 1: So I kind of agree with that one. I just 426 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,160 Speaker 1: think it's such an older movie and it's kind of 427 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 1: like people's default again talking about like romantic comedies earlier 428 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 1: if you haven't seen a lot of movies, but you've 429 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,400 Speaker 1: seen Forrest Gump, you'll probably put that one as your favorite. 430 00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 1: We could be friends if your favorite movie is Forrest Gump. 431 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:58,439 Speaker 1: But I'll just know that about you. So, but I 432 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:00,959 Speaker 1: just don't think that's Tom hanks best movie v in 433 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,119 Speaker 1: my opinion, So I could see why that one is 434 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:07,480 Speaker 1: a little bit overrated anyway, that has been unpopular opinions. 435 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:11,199 Speaker 1: Don't roast me on Twitter or Instagram. Don't send me 436 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 1: mean messages. If there's one you agreed with, let me know. 437 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:15,680 Speaker 1: If there's one you think I missed out on, let 438 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,959 Speaker 1: me know. Up next, we'll talk about The Last Blockbuster, 439 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:25,919 Speaker 1: all right, So now I want to talk about The 440 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 1: Last Blockbuster, which came out last year, but it just 441 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 1: came out on Netflix this past month, and the whole 442 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 1: premise of the movie is the very last existing Blockbuster, 443 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 1: which is in band, Oregon, and the whole documentary is 444 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:42,200 Speaker 1: kind of reliving the time that Blockbuster was king and 445 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: everybody would go to Blockbuster to rent movies and kind 446 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:48,119 Speaker 1: of missing that experience now with having Netflix. And I 447 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,360 Speaker 1: guess the thing I found the most interesting about this 448 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 1: was that the reason Blockbuster failed that they get to 449 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,639 Speaker 1: in the documentary wasn't exactly because Netflix came around. It 450 00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: was kind of because Blockbuster just didn't have that great 451 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,400 Speaker 1: of a business plan once they did have a competitor, 452 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: Like they talked about how they were kind of right 453 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 1: on par with Netflix when everythings were going to streaming 454 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 1: whenever people were just getting DVDs delivered at home and 455 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: just finding an easier way to have movies without having 456 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: to go into an actual store. So they were really 457 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 1: kind of right on par with Netflix at that time, 458 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 1: but overall just fell through as a business. So it 459 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,919 Speaker 1: wasn't exactly Netflix that took them out. And then they 460 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 1: kind of get into the whole deal of like when 461 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 1: Netflix came to them and wanted to partner up and 462 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 1: they basically laughed him out of the room. And I 463 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:32,959 Speaker 1: think that's what kind of people kind of hang up 464 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,359 Speaker 1: on a lot now. I think, oh, that's why Blockbuster 465 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 1: went away. But they get into more about how like 466 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: below the Blockbuster was, And for me, I never really 467 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:45,959 Speaker 1: went to Blockbuster as a kid. We never really got 468 00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:49,440 Speaker 1: into renting movies, and I think it was because one 469 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:52,439 Speaker 1: we didn't have a lot of money to spend on 470 00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 1: renting movies, and I still felt like to us that 471 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 1: was kind of expensive to go to Blockbuster and pay 472 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,160 Speaker 1: the what five six bucks to rent a movie for 473 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 1: a night or two, and to have like a I 474 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 1: guess I get this from my parents, of having like 475 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,959 Speaker 1: another open account or just having different things of like 476 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 1: you have to sign up for a card to rent these, 477 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:10,640 Speaker 1: Like my parents were weird about that, and I think 478 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 1: I'm still weird about having like different accounts on things 479 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 1: and having like open tabs. I don't know I'm weird 480 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 1: about that. I'm nodding my head, but I guess I 481 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 1: get that from them. So we never got a Blockbuster card. 482 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,479 Speaker 1: And the only time I really remember renting movies as 483 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 1: a kid was one there was a video rental store 484 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:30,880 Speaker 1: inside of the Walmart we lived in, I mean inside 485 00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,439 Speaker 1: of the Walmart in the town we lived in, Texas, 486 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:35,919 Speaker 1: walksa hatchie. I don't even remember the name of it, 487 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 1: but we would occasionally go in there and rent movies 488 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 1: if somebody came to town and was visiting our house 489 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 1: our trailer and we're like, oh, we needed some movies 490 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,959 Speaker 1: to entertain them. And then we also had a small 491 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,879 Speaker 1: mom and pop shop called the Video Station, and watsa 492 00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:52,359 Speaker 1: hatchie where you could go and rent a movie for 493 00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:55,440 Speaker 1: a dollar, and that's what we would do. And their 494 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 1: system was so old school that you would literally go 495 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:01,080 Speaker 1: up to the VHS tape on the wall, pick up 496 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:03,800 Speaker 1: a little like like a little tab off the thing, 497 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:05,680 Speaker 1: go up and take that tab to the cashier and 498 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 1: they would bring that movie to you. So it was 499 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: a very mom and pop shop, which they talked about 500 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 1: actually in a documentary about how those were kind of 501 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 1: the first to go whenever a blockbuster came around. But 502 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 1: I was just never really a big blockbuster person. Were 503 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 1: you I was? We were a blockbuster family, really loved 504 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,640 Speaker 1: blockbust What was the experience like for you? We would 505 00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 1: go ran like four or five movies. My dad loved Blockbuster. 506 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,439 Speaker 1: I liked going and then getting like a dr Pepper 507 00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:34,560 Speaker 1: and some snacks at the check out. But I loved 508 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 1: Blockbuster too. I think I can only remember going in 509 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 1: the store once or twice, and we would go like 510 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 1: every week really, so it was a full on experience 511 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:47,199 Speaker 1: for you. It was the full on classic Suburbia blockbuster experience. 512 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 1: So watching this documentary, would you have anything inside of 513 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 1: you that would want to go visit this last Blockbuster 514 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 1: in Bend Oregon, because that's what they're kind of doing 515 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 1: in this like people are like going, they're specific to it. Yeah, 516 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 1: Like I feel like, I don't know, Blackbuster, just give 517 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 1: us big corporation vibes off to me. We've moved onto 518 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,560 Speaker 1: bigger and better things with streaming, Like we don't need 519 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 1: to revisit like having to go. I mean, we already 520 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 1: spent like forty five minutes trying to pick something to 521 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: watch on a streaming service. I can't imagine walking again. 522 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:24,480 Speaker 1: I think the only point they kind of made that 523 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,880 Speaker 1: it kind of resonated with me was that people would 524 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,680 Speaker 1: go in there and ask for recommendations from somebody working there, 525 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 1: and that interaction you get with somebody talking about a 526 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:37,160 Speaker 1: movie and then recommending something to you, taking that movie home, 527 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 1: watching it, and then coming back and be like, oh, great, 528 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:40,920 Speaker 1: pick on that one, or oh I didn't like that. 529 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 1: Like that's kind of cool. As an introvert, I don't 530 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:47,640 Speaker 1: really want to have to gonna say you would never do, 531 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 1: but just the idea of people doing that. I would 532 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 1: never ask a question in a movie theater. I would 533 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,120 Speaker 1: never ask or tell them that you hated it. You'd 534 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 1: just be like, uh, I watched it and they'd be like, 535 00:25:57,800 --> 00:25:59,959 Speaker 1: you want another seven movies like this, and you wouldn't, 536 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 1: I know, And then I would watch ten movies that 537 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 1: I didn't like. But I just think that kind of 538 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:08,439 Speaker 1: human experience when it comes to movies, it's kind of 539 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,639 Speaker 1: a powerful thing. But I just don't think it's anything 540 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,040 Speaker 1: we need to have back. Like when it comes to 541 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:17,119 Speaker 1: me getting that experience, it's actually going to the movie theater. 542 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,200 Speaker 1: It's not going to rent a movie. And now people 543 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,959 Speaker 1: have things like your podcast to listen to and get 544 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 1: movie recommendation. You don't really need the Blockbuster person. You 545 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: don't need the guy yeah at the Blockbuster telling you 546 00:26:26,760 --> 00:26:29,720 Speaker 1: what to watch. And I think the convenience is having 547 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 1: everything at home. I don't really need a physical copy 548 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:37,679 Speaker 1: of something. But family that works At the last Blockbuster, 549 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: they're very passionate, very passionate about Blockbuster. It's a whole 550 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 1: family ordeal. They've all worked there. I like that aspect 551 00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:48,400 Speaker 1: of it. It's because, like I said, that Blockbuster has 552 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 1: that kind of big corporation feel. To me, this is 553 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:55,199 Speaker 1: essentially a mom and pop shop that's just using the 554 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,399 Speaker 1: Blockbuster name to stay afloat, and that's they're not really 555 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,360 Speaker 1: a blockbuster. They're kind of owned by that and using 556 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 1: their license, but it feels like a mom and pop operation, 557 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 1: which is which is why I would like to see 558 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 1: them continue. But other than that, I have no desire 559 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 1: to ever go into a video story again to rent something. 560 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 1: I still want to go see movies in the movie theater, 561 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 1: but I don't need the rental experience. I never really 562 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 1: had a bond with that, not because I wasn't around 563 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 1: at the time where it was popular. I think the 564 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:26,159 Speaker 1: only thing I ever really got kind of into it 565 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 1: was a red box. It was because they had those 566 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,120 Speaker 1: at gas stations and you could go get gas, pick 567 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 1: up a movie, and take it back to any location 568 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:35,399 Speaker 1: and it was easier. I got really into that for 569 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 1: a minute, and it was a lot cheaper. It was 570 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: like a dollar or two dollars. Red box was a lot. 571 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 1: That was a but they had such limited quantity and 572 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 1: select same thing. I never got super into, like that's 573 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:46,119 Speaker 1: where I would watch all my movies. But when it 574 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 1: came to some new movies, when streaming was still a 575 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,679 Speaker 1: little bit newer and they weren't getting new things, I 576 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 1: would use that. But yeah, I don't have no desire 577 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 1: to go to the last Blockbuster. But I do think 578 00:27:56,960 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 1: it's an interesting documentary. I would give it about three 579 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 1: point five out of five Blockbuster cards. It's entertaining. I 580 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:05,239 Speaker 1: think it's cool to kind of look back on that 581 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 1: time and realize what went on with Blockbuster. And I 582 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:10,919 Speaker 1: think the idea of it is kind of cool. Of 583 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 1: like going into a place and seeing all these movies, 584 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,120 Speaker 1: seeing the movie posters in the memorabilia. But I wouldn't 585 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 1: be sad if this blast Blockbuster clothes. I just think 586 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,439 Speaker 1: it's kind of cool. All right. Let's get into a 587 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:25,959 Speaker 1: movie review now, talking about Bad Trip, which was on Netflix. 588 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:29,119 Speaker 1: It's a well, how do you explain in this movie? 589 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:32,919 Speaker 1: It's basically a comedy with real life interactions in the 590 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 1: style of kind of a boor rat or a bad 591 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 1: Grandpa with stars Eric Andre. Before we get into this review, 592 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 1: here's just a little bit of the trailer. She's crazy, 593 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 1: he will cull us, keep your mouth, snitches, get stuches. 594 00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 1: It's described with a ride. We got four whole days, 595 00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 1: we can keep bad, relax and breathe in America. We 596 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: are the only black people in it. Like to make 597 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 1: it to you doing that, So I'll just say about 598 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 1: this movie. I like the idea about it more than 599 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 1: I like the actual movie. I think Eric Andre is 600 00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:17,160 Speaker 1: pretty funny. He's very over the top, very ridiculous. His 601 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 1: style of comedy is like make you feel cringe and 602 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 1: also make you feel just overall just very uncomfortable, and 603 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:27,760 Speaker 1: it's very raunchy and almost just for a shock value, 604 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:29,880 Speaker 1: um when it comes to what he would do on 605 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 1: the show. And then I was interested in watching this 606 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 1: movie because I did see people say it was funny. 607 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 1: But like we were talking about earlier, we didn't want 608 00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 1: the trailer for this movie before watching it. What people 609 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 1: I saw some people Instagram who said it was funny 610 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 1: when it first came out. That's where we're getting hurt. 611 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: That's recommendations. So what this movie is. It's a scripted movie, 612 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 1: but it's shot in a style of like, like I said, 613 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 1: like a boll Rat or a bad Grandpa, where the 614 00:29:57,560 --> 00:30:00,720 Speaker 1: people's reactions are real people, they don't they're in a movie. 615 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,000 Speaker 1: I think the thing that kind of threw me off 616 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 1: at the beginning was that it doesn't look like a movie. 617 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 1: It looks like a hidden camera show. It was so 618 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 1: bad that was hard for me to get into and 619 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 1: just the shooting style of it, and the fact that 620 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 1: I never really felt like I was watching a movie 621 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 1: aside from the scenes where they're just having character dialogue. 622 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 1: It felt like I was watching Jackass, which you love, 623 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 1: which I love. But I don't know. Like I said, 624 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 1: I like the idea of doing a movie like this 625 00:30:28,440 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 1: and having real life reactions. I just don't think this 626 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:33,239 Speaker 1: is it. It was definitely not it. It was so 627 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: bad that I asked you to change the movie like 628 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: three times before just giving up and reading a book. 629 00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 1: I was like, I can't stand this, and I feel 630 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:42,920 Speaker 1: like you and I have both kind of been wanting 631 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,720 Speaker 1: to watch funnier things lately. That was not it. You 632 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:47,360 Speaker 1: were like, let's watch a funny movie, and I'm like, 633 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 1: all right, I got the thing, and you were into it. 634 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,640 Speaker 1: It was into the idea of funny movie, not the movie. 635 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 1: I was not into that. Let me tell you what. 636 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:56,720 Speaker 1: The ship researched a little more that it wasn't a 637 00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 1: straight on I just thought it would be a straight 638 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 1: up comedy. Wasn't what we were expecting, which sometimes that 639 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,360 Speaker 1: bodes are well for Like if you're watching something and 640 00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 1: it's not what you expected, you end up liking it more. 641 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:08,680 Speaker 1: This did not bode well in this case. Maybe not 642 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:13,959 Speaker 1: so much so. It's very raunchy, it's very dirty, and 643 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 1: the overall plot is pretty ridiculous. It has for me 644 00:31:18,800 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 1: being a guy who does enjoy that type of humor 645 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:25,239 Speaker 1: sometimes I don't think I loved all of it, and 646 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 1: even me, I felt a little bit uncomfortable, and I 647 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 1: was like, I don't really feel like watching this right now, 648 00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 1: But for the sake of kind of watching the entire 649 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 1: movie and judging afterwards, I sat through the whole thing. 650 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 1: I think if there was an equivalent of walking out 651 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: of a streaming movie, I would have been a little 652 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 1: close on this one. You even got on your phone 653 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 1: Friday night movies. I think the equivalent to walking out 654 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 1: of a movie now is starting a movie and then 655 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 1: never coming back and finishing it, or just being on 656 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 1: your phone the entire time. And there was points in 657 00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,960 Speaker 1: this movie where I was just like, Okay, wrap it up, 658 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:01,480 Speaker 1: and it's only it's less than an hour and a half. 659 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:05,959 Speaker 1: I'm gonna give this movie one out of five broken iPhones. Okay, 660 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 1: I would give it one point seven five crashed cars okay. Um. 661 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 1: Aside from the like the asthetic of watching a hidden 662 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 1: camera show with some moose scripting, no real desire to 663 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:24,720 Speaker 1: watch anything else like this. I think the people who 664 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 1: do this best is Johnny Knoxville, like Bad Grandpa. While 665 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 1: it does have elements of people reacting to things that 666 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 1: are happening and not knowing they're in a movie, those 667 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:39,800 Speaker 1: also actually feel like movies. I did actually laugh about Grandpa. Yeah, 668 00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 1: but Grandpa's funny. Johnny knox Fell's funny. I'll give him that. 669 00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:44,960 Speaker 1: He does it well when it comes to Eric Andre, 670 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 1: who's just so much more ridiculous than Raunchier than Johnny Knoxville. 671 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,080 Speaker 1: Tiffany Hatt was funny. She was funny. She was probably 672 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 1: my favorite party. I would even consider giving it a 673 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 1: one point to five. That is why I gave it 674 00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 1: a little bit higher rating, because Tiffany had was funny 675 00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 1: in this, and I was kind of surprised she did 676 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 1: a movie like this. She's hilarious. She was great. Other 677 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 1: than that, not so much. So I put it on 678 00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 1: your to watch list. Yeah, I also expected it. Well, 679 00:33:12,080 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 1: I guess I got a little bit of like, huh, 680 00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 1: it wasn't in the top ten anymore. We went to 681 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:18,520 Speaker 1: go watch it. I no longer wonder why that was 682 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 1: a brief indicator. So, if you're looking for something funny 683 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 1: to watch and you're coming here across Bad Trip on Netflix, 684 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:28,360 Speaker 1: let's skip it. Watch it something else, Watch an old classic, 685 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 1: watch Bad Grandpa. There you go. All right, get into 686 00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 1: some movie news now. First up is that to Tom 687 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 1: Cruise movies have been officially pushed back. Top Gun, Maverick 688 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 1: now comes out on November, and Mission Impossible Seven Moves 689 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 1: to Mayo. I just don't know why they're pushing things 690 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:52,719 Speaker 1: back now. At this point, I feel like we're seeing 691 00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:55,720 Speaker 1: concerts getting announced and things going back to normal there. 692 00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 1: I don't know what the hesitation is on movie theaters 693 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 1: to kind of delay a release dates, like if they want. 694 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 1: I don't know. I feel like they're in the beginning. 695 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 1: It was so that the most people would be in 696 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:08,440 Speaker 1: the theaters when these movies came out, and the numbers 697 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,440 Speaker 1: would reflect that. With the Tom Cruise movies, I kind 698 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:13,960 Speaker 1: of feel like that's him. I feel like he has 699 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,839 Speaker 1: an overall saying when those movies come out, and he's 700 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:19,920 Speaker 1: so passionate about getting people back in theaters, which I 701 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 1: am too. I just I don't know. I'm still seeing 702 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: things getting delayed. It's frustrating to me. At this point, 703 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:27,719 Speaker 1: I just want to watch the movie. I was talking 704 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 1: about last week how Warner Brothers just putting them out. 705 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,600 Speaker 1: Seeing what happens and they're doing well, I'd say just 706 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 1: put them out. At this point, I don't think we're 707 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,960 Speaker 1: gonna want to wait anymore for these Tom Cruise movies. 708 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 1: Also in movie news is that Netflix struck a deal 709 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 1: with Sony, which basically they're getting the streaming rights to 710 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,759 Speaker 1: some of Sony's biggest movies like Spider Man and Jumanji, 711 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:50,680 Speaker 1: which is important because Sony, like all the other studios, 712 00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:54,040 Speaker 1: they don't have their own streaming service. So like Disney 713 00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 1: Disney Plus, you have HBO Max, which is all the 714 00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:00,080 Speaker 1: Warner Brothers movies, but Sony doesn't have anything where they're 715 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 1: exclusively putting all of their movies. They kind of go 716 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:06,080 Speaker 1: in between all the other streaming services. So for Netflix 717 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:08,440 Speaker 1: to strike this deal, it's a pretty big deal. They're 718 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,879 Speaker 1: going to get like the sequel to Spiderman, the Spider Verse, 719 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 1: and they'll have kind of first DIBs on all these 720 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:19,880 Speaker 1: Sony movies, which normally they would go to I believe 721 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 1: Cable companies, which is also not being so much of 722 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,799 Speaker 1: a thing because that used to be like the way 723 00:35:25,840 --> 00:35:27,959 Speaker 1: they would get their kind of secondary income is going 724 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:31,440 Speaker 1: to and giving the rights to a certain cable network 725 00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 1: for re airing. But now it's kind of just like 726 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:36,680 Speaker 1: everybody wants to be on a certain streaming service. So 727 00:35:37,080 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 1: for Sony to land on Netflix, I think it is 728 00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:42,000 Speaker 1: a good idea and will help them a lot when 729 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 1: it comes to competing with all these other streaming services. 730 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:48,480 Speaker 1: And then finally in movie news, is that rapper and 731 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:51,280 Speaker 1: actor DMX passed away, which I thought was pretty sad. 732 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:55,120 Speaker 1: He was in movies like Belly Exit Wounds, but not 733 00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:59,040 Speaker 1: only that, his music was in a lot of movies 734 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 1: that you don't really we think about. Even We just 735 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 1: watched Bad Trip and it was so weird. We watched 736 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:06,760 Speaker 1: that on the day he died. In the very last scene, 737 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:09,319 Speaker 1: they're singing along to a d m X song, which 738 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:11,239 Speaker 1: I thought was a little eerie. It was a little 739 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 1: weird like and for some reason when that scene came on, 740 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 1: I was like, I bet they'll sing a d MX song. 741 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:18,879 Speaker 1: I almost said it right before that scene, and then 742 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:21,280 Speaker 1: they were singing DMX and it just felt so weird 743 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:23,279 Speaker 1: that we decided to watch that movie on that day, 744 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:28,120 Speaker 1: even for them, like that movie coming out now and 745 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 1: having the kind of attention on it that it does 746 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:32,399 Speaker 1: right now, it's weird that that scene is in there, 747 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:35,200 Speaker 1: them singing along to d m X. That's also why 748 00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:37,239 Speaker 1: I gave that movie a slightly higher rating. It just 749 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:41,360 Speaker 1: kind of it resonated with me when that happened in memorium, 750 00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 1: so r I P to d m X and personal news. 751 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:45,839 Speaker 1: We were talking about earlier how we're so kind of 752 00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:48,400 Speaker 1: close to getting married now we're what a couple of 753 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 1: months away now less than a couple of months, and 754 00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 1: when we were looking at kind of our last year, 755 00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:59,279 Speaker 1: this past weekend was a pretty big milestone in our relationship. 756 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 1: It was the weekend that I traveled to Texas to 757 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,800 Speaker 1: pick you up when we were living long distance and 758 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,799 Speaker 1: the whole pandemic happened, which looking back on that was 759 00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 1: such a weird time, and we've never told the story 760 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,840 Speaker 1: of what happened during that weekend, held the story of 761 00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 1: either of our road trip, because it was such a 762 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,359 Speaker 1: crazy time to where we didn't know what was going 763 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:23,320 Speaker 1: to happen. Then looking back on it now, it seems 764 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,920 Speaker 1: so kind of crazy, how uncertain things were and how 765 00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 1: kind of things have kind of gotten back to normal 766 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:32,560 Speaker 1: now and we're better than ever than we've been, But 767 00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:36,280 Speaker 1: at that time feeling so weird, like I was almost 768 00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:39,080 Speaker 1: in a movie going to rescue somebody. That's what it 769 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:42,560 Speaker 1: felt like. And it was kind of split online of 770 00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:44,760 Speaker 1: like was it even a good idea at the time. 771 00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 1: People weren't nice? People were not nicebook. So I drove 772 00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:52,840 Speaker 1: to Texas and pick you up in a weekend. Drove 773 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 1: twelve hours there. I peed on the side of the road. 774 00:37:57,280 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 1: I didn't stop for food or anything. I had food, 775 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 1: load it up, had water. That was at a time 776 00:38:03,640 --> 00:38:06,719 Speaker 1: where you want to go into a different bathroom and 777 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:10,239 Speaker 1: we didn't. Masks weren't like readily available. You had like 778 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:15,560 Speaker 1: a bandana. Yeah. I had gloves to pump gas and 779 00:38:15,600 --> 00:38:18,560 Speaker 1: then tons of hand sanitizer. Yeah. So the only time 780 00:38:18,600 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 1: I would stop was to get gas, which I can 781 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,040 Speaker 1: remember every exit. I stopped bad because it was the 782 00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:27,279 Speaker 1: most hidden, but at the time there was nobody on 783 00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:30,600 Speaker 1: the road. It was so empty. I made record time 784 00:38:30,600 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 1: getting there, got to your place, stay there at night, 785 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:37,880 Speaker 1: woke up very early the next day, and we drove back, 786 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:39,239 Speaker 1: and I will say a lot of people were like, 787 00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:42,080 Speaker 1: why couldn't she just drive to you. I wasn't comfortable 788 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 1: making a twelve and a half hour road trip by myself, 789 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:48,320 Speaker 1: Like I'd never driven outside of Texas. You weren't comfortable 790 00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:49,920 Speaker 1: with me making that. So I feel like a lot 791 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:53,239 Speaker 1: of people were like, she's selfish for making you drive. 792 00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:56,560 Speaker 1: You offered, so just put that out there. I wanted 793 00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 1: to come get you. Yeah, and then yeah, we got 794 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:03,399 Speaker 1: up early early. I packed like a random assortment of things, 795 00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 1: didn't know how long I was going to be here, 796 00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:09,839 Speaker 1: and a year later, you've never left. Still here. We 797 00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:11,759 Speaker 1: also peet on side of the road on that trip back. 798 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:14,799 Speaker 1: It's really fun. You're a trooper on that. I was 799 00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:17,319 Speaker 1: a trooper on that. I think of all the things 800 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:20,719 Speaker 1: I've been most impressed by you, that's top five. Thank you. 801 00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:24,279 Speaker 1: The ability to just go on the side of the road, 802 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:26,520 Speaker 1: which it's a lot easier for me to do. We 803 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:28,319 Speaker 1: just opened the car doors. You just kind of do 804 00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:29,600 Speaker 1: what you have to do in that moment, and you're 805 00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:33,279 Speaker 1: just like, all right, yeah, I wasn't. I would rather 806 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:35,080 Speaker 1: be on side of the road than use a gas 807 00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:38,840 Speaker 1: station bathroom. And especially that like stretch of road. There's 808 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 1: not great places, there's not a whole lot of places 809 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:44,520 Speaker 1: to stop. But here we are, year later since engaged, 810 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:47,399 Speaker 1: about to get married, and at the time of recording this, 811 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 1: I am twenty four hours out from getting my second 812 00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 1: dose of the vaccine. Looking back on that now feels 813 00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:57,880 Speaker 1: like so long ago. Yeah, it does. I mean we 814 00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:00,360 Speaker 1: thought we had another year of long distance left. We 815 00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:02,120 Speaker 1: I think we would barely be at the point right 816 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:06,000 Speaker 1: now of like possibly just now getting engaged. And you 817 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:09,279 Speaker 1: think we still would have maybe gotten engaged. Yeah, I 818 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:12,000 Speaker 1: guess in my head, I figured it would all happened 819 00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 1: like at this time. Now, that would have been a 820 00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:17,839 Speaker 1: lot of I guess it's just as much change. Yeah, 821 00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 1: that would have been like we get engaged, I finished 822 00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:23,360 Speaker 1: grad school, and then I move and now it's I 823 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:26,120 Speaker 1: finished grad school, we get married, a new job. There's 824 00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:27,840 Speaker 1: still a lot of change happening, a lot of kings. 825 00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:31,759 Speaker 1: But that has been our one year anniversary of that 826 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:35,879 Speaker 1: of a crazy time. Things look like they're getting back 827 00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:38,600 Speaker 1: to normal now. I'm kind of starting to feel normal 828 00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:41,839 Speaker 1: now in certain aspects. In certain aspects I'm still not there. 829 00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:45,279 Speaker 1: But yeah, that is our when your anniversary of that, 830 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 1: restaurants are finally open again. Remember we got back that night. 831 00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 1: We were so hungry because we're just eating like snacks 832 00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:53,439 Speaker 1: again on the road, and we're like, well do uber eats. 833 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:55,840 Speaker 1: Well the restaurant we wanted didn't do your reads and 834 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:56,960 Speaker 1: we did not want to get back in the car, 835 00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 1: but we were like, we have no food here. There's 836 00:40:59,080 --> 00:41:01,400 Speaker 1: so many places were still closed because they haven't hadn't 837 00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 1: pivoted to take out, and we went and got a 838 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,359 Speaker 1: place here. I won't call them out because people love them, 839 00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:08,239 Speaker 1: but we got chips in guacamole and it was like 840 00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:11,839 Speaker 1: three like tostadas that we were expected to break ourselves, 841 00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:15,839 Speaker 1: that is, not chips in guacamole and a scoop of walk. Yeah, 842 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 1: that was that was a fail. The only thing that 843 00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:19,880 Speaker 1: place had going for them was that they had margarite 844 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:21,799 Speaker 1: is to go, which I needed after thirteen hours in 845 00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:24,279 Speaker 1: a car. Yeah, that was like the most time we'd 846 00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 1: ever spent in a car together too, very first. Yeah, 847 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:30,719 Speaker 1: our longest road trip. We still liked each other. We 848 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:33,000 Speaker 1: still liked each other after that. We still liked each other. 849 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:36,160 Speaker 1: After a year of basically being the only other human 850 00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 1: we interact with. Yeah, you're literally the only human I 851 00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:41,319 Speaker 1: see most of the time, most of the time, so 852 00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:45,840 Speaker 1: we learned how to live together. That was an adjustment. Yeah, 853 00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:48,600 Speaker 1: that's a whole other podcast. The first like six weeks 854 00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:50,640 Speaker 1: were like this is so fun, and then like six 855 00:41:50,640 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 1: weeks in, I'm like, why don't you do the dishes? 856 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:58,160 Speaker 1: Like ever ever, that was just how I felt in 857 00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:01,360 Speaker 1: the moment. There we go. Well, now that I've aired 858 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:03,840 Speaker 1: our laundry, we've learned a lot about each other.
