Speaker 1: Toss Popcorn is a production of iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2: Good Morning, Good evening.
Speaker 3: I'm Leanna Holsten and I'm Sienna Jacob and welcome to
Speaker 3: Tossed Popcorn, the podcast where two idiots watched every film
Speaker 3: on the AFI's one hundred Greatest American Movies of All Time,
Speaker 3: the very slightly less racist tenth Anniversary edition, and are
Speaker 3: now watching films directed by women.
Speaker 1: Yeah we are. This podcast is a safe marriage for
Speaker 1: people who don't know anything about movies. Today we're watching
Speaker 1: The Proposal.
Speaker 2: Can't Can't fight, A can't can't fight, can't fight A
Speaker 2: love like ours?
Speaker 4: So?
Speaker 1: Uh are we good with this? A film that we've
Speaker 1: all heard of in this day and age. Warning there
Speaker 1: will be spoilers about this Alaskan surprisingly Alaskan old film.
Speaker 1: Ask Leanna, Hello, good morning. We've switched our morning times.
Speaker 1: Can I tell you I'm check well? Leonna, what's your
Speaker 1: predictions for this movie The Proposal?
Speaker 5: Yes?
Speaker 1: Can I listen to your first please?
Speaker 2: Okay? Okay, Hi Sienna, it's Leanna. I'm about to watch
Speaker 2: The Proposal. I haven't seen this in a long time,
Speaker 2: but I predict the cutest dog in cinematic history. Sorry,
Speaker 2: if you can hear my friends. They're yelling about the
Speaker 2: entire plot of the Proposal, so I had to run
Speaker 2: away and record my predictions. It reminded me ofthing that
Speaker 2: happened to the film The Cutest Dog in cinematic History.
Speaker 2: I think his name is Kevin, Ryan Reynolds, Sandra Bullock,
Speaker 2: Betty White, how that guy fun vibes Alaska. Probably some
Speaker 2: stuff it's not aged well, but honestly, I predicted it's
Speaker 2: gonna be fun. Okay, love you bye?
Speaker 1: Okay, first of all, so cute you watch it with
Speaker 1: your friends?
Speaker 2: Thank you. This is how I really can tell. I
Speaker 2: am happier, like just less having depression in the UK
Speaker 2: because I'm not watching movies alone every time. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 2: sometimes there are friends.
Speaker 1: Movies are fun more fun to watch.
Speaker 2: It a group. Isn't that interesting? Okay, Sienna, could I
Speaker 2: please hear your prediction?
Speaker 1: Yes, Hi, Leanna, this is Sienna. I'm about to watch
Speaker 1: The Proposal, a film I have never seen. I recognize
Speaker 1: the cover, which is oddly iconic. So is this like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, she forces, she forced? This is her? Yes,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, her employee to propose to her. Are
Speaker 1: you fake proposes to her?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 1: She's a woman who has it all except for love.
Speaker 1: She has the job. She's a boss. I don't know,
Speaker 1: I've seen the trailer. Maybe I predict Sandra Book is
Speaker 1: a mean boss who ends up finding a soft side
Speaker 1: for a cute guy. I love you, good viral.
Speaker 2: Oh you're done, you were done?
Speaker 1: I love you goodbye? Oh yeah, I was done.
Speaker 2: I can't believe you'd never seen this before.
Speaker 1: I've never seen it, and I gotta tell you her
Speaker 1: many surprising moments. Okay, there were some shocking scenes.
Speaker 2: This will be very because I've seen this movie like
Speaker 2: ten times now and I perfect I saw it like
Speaker 2: when it came out. Yeah this is and then again
Speaker 2: in like middle school with my pals during a sleepover,
Speaker 2: vibes like this. I printed upon this film totally long ago.
Speaker 2: In the ancient text.
Speaker 1: I will say it wasn'tularly offensive. It wasn't particularly like.
Speaker 2: It could have been all good? Could it have been worse?
Speaker 1: Like Betty White? And then you're like, oh, she's cultural Okay,
Speaker 1: well the character, this character, I thought she was just
Speaker 1: making this choice on her own, but it's her heritage.
Speaker 2: But they want to justify it later they do try. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so crazy. I can't believe you've never seen No, I've
Speaker 2: really never do you think in two thousand and nine,
Speaker 2: what was going on? I don't know.

Speaker 2: to a different part of Europe to visit someone else.

Speaker 2: to tonight. Oh my, I'm bringing my brother to two
Speaker 2: birthday parties.
Speaker 1: That's fun.
Speaker 2: I'm excited. I think it'll be goofy as hell. That's one.
Speaker 2: One is a birthday for someone who is turning twenty five?
Speaker 1: Why are you going to that?
Speaker 2: I didn't know. I didn't know she was that age.
Speaker 2: I know her through stand up and she was like,
Speaker 2: come to my birthday. I was like, I'd love to
Speaker 2: thank you so much, and then she was like my
Speaker 2: twenty fifth birthday and I was like, you're what.
Speaker 1: The thing is is? I feel like it's often kind
Speaker 1: of discussed as like, oh, fuck you, but it's really
Speaker 1: just like the second I find out somebody's turning any
Speaker 1: age below twenty five, blow twenty six, twenty five, oh,
Speaker 1: it is immediately they are immediately unrelatable to me. I'm like, oh,
Speaker 1: we're on different planets because I remember that, I remember
Speaker 1: turning twenty five.
Speaker 2: I don't but her she's doing it's a very twenty
Speaker 2: five year old schedule of like meeting at a pub
Speaker 2: from like eight thirty, which love that. But then she
Speaker 2: was like, so we'll do that and then at midnight
Speaker 2: we're all going to go to this club. No, and
Speaker 2: I was like, well, no, we are not. No, that's
Speaker 2: there's nothing happened. Never is at midnight on my syllabus
Speaker 2: for the day. That's not gonna happen. Maybe Ben will.
Speaker 2: I don't know Ben might have a wind and go
Speaker 2: go party it up, just want.
Speaker 1: To ruin my next day. I never feel like a
Speaker 1: spear y next day, which is crazy.
Speaker 2: I feel that as well.
Speaker 1: I barely do good stuff with my days. I barely ill.
Speaker 1: Like I'll be like I need to really feel good
Speaker 1: tomorrow and then stay in bed for seven hours of course,
Speaker 1: but I'd rather do that than be I just never
Speaker 1: ever want to be hungover. Ever.
Speaker 2: Yeah, sometimes of late I'll get a yearning to be
Speaker 2: hungover just so I can go really hoe out on
Speaker 2: a grilled cheese.
Speaker 1: That is. I guess that's that's what people get.
Speaker 2: But it's not worth the suffering.
Speaker 1: They get into the sort of the rhythm of you
Speaker 1: you party, it's fun and then you you kind of
Speaker 1: have a TLC day, which there's definitely those be the time,
Speaker 1: but yeah, exactly. Also, my weekends aren't ever weekends these days.
Speaker 1: It's like so unclear, and I'm supposed to do the
Speaker 1: exactly because I work on weekends with was the time,
Speaker 1: and it's just like.
Speaker 2: Mmm, it's weird. Yeah, I feel that way as well.
Speaker 2: It's like, well, I have to do podcast editing of
Speaker 2: a Sunday, so I can't I can't be completely out
Speaker 2: of it, and then Monday is work again, so I
Speaker 2: won't be able to recover. Then only a long weekend
Speaker 2: would save us. I really think we as a society
Speaker 2: need to reconsider capitalism. But who has the time to
Speaker 2: discuss that. We're here to talk about love well, Happy
Speaker 2: Valentine's Day. Oh my god, it's our Valentine's episode.
Speaker 1: I forgot to say that.
Speaker 2: I say good more Valentine instead of saying Happy Valentine's Day,
Speaker 2: I said good morning. That's so me, good morning, good morning.
Speaker 2: Oh oh, Sienna, would you mind giving us a synopsis
Speaker 2: of the film that you just stopped the first time?
Speaker 2: The Proposal?
Speaker 1: I would love to the proposal. A high powered, bitch.
Speaker 6: Canadian immigrant business woman is about to be deported, so
Speaker 6: she cuts a mutually beneficial and threatening deal with her snarky,
Speaker 6: charming assistant.
Speaker 1: They go to visit his family in what's a nice
Speaker 1: way to say, bumfuck?
Speaker 2: Sitka Sitka in Sitka, Alaska?
Speaker 1: Thank you. Their love is a lie for most of
Speaker 1: the time, but then surprisingly it becomes real the end. Yay,
Speaker 1: I love Sandra Bullock. I'll say it.
Speaker 2: I love her so I watch her do anything she's
Speaker 2: a delight. I think she's amazing. I was talking, Oh yeah, okay, yeah,
Speaker 2: let's know that I want to hear your first know
Speaker 2: what's that?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: You first?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 1: I was just gonna say I think he's also very charming.
Speaker 1: I think when his jokes don't land, the fact that
Speaker 1: he's so charming as a default makes it even weirder
Speaker 1: that it's like, oh, that was just a poorly delivered joke,
Speaker 1: and I didn't get that because I don't know he's
Speaker 1: a specific specimen to me. But I think he is
Speaker 1: objectively charming and I know that. I'm like, he's really
Speaker 1: good at his whole vibe. But then when he says
Speaker 1: something and I'm like, I didn't like that at all,
Speaker 1: kind of like, yeah, brother, only you could just be
Speaker 1: normal for those lines.
Speaker 2: Brother. No.
Speaker 1: Yeah, anyway, what were we gonna say about Sandra?
Speaker 2: Well, I was about thinking about the two of them
Speaker 2: in this film specifically. They really both are triple threats
Speaker 2: where they're they're both hot, so stunning, gorgeous. Yeah yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: they're both actually good actors and they're both really funny,
Speaker 2: Like they're good at comedy. He do a lot of yeah,
Speaker 2: oh my gosh.
Speaker 1: Did they have chemistry? What do you think?
Speaker 2: I thought so. I thought they were really good at
Speaker 2: not having chemistry. Like the physical awkwardness between the two
Speaker 2: of them was very fun up at the beginning. And
Speaker 2: then that kiss at the end.
Speaker 1: Uh huh hey, yeah, oh that was that was a
Speaker 1: very lovely kiss. Yeah, that was like one of the
Speaker 1: most real type of passionate kisses I've seen in like
Speaker 1: a Hollywood rom com like us. Huh yeah, huh.
Speaker 2: Well, shall we dive into phone notes? Let's do it.
Speaker 2: This is our segment phone notes, our romantic segment phone notes,
Speaker 2: where we romantically read the notes that the other person
Speaker 2: took on their romantic phone while watching this romantic film.
Speaker 2: Can I ask you a question? Up top?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Where are you at with love these days? With this
Speaker 2: Valentine's Day? Love is in the air?
Speaker 1: Fascinating question?
Speaker 2: You.
Speaker 1: I am at a place where I I think I
Speaker 1: had a lot of beliefs about things when I'd only
Speaker 1: been in relationships where we didn't respect each other that much.
Speaker 1: And I think I'm now at an age where people
Speaker 1: are just more respectful of each other. M And I'm
Speaker 1: in a relationship that's actually really good for me and
Speaker 1: so I feel a lot more like, oh okay about
Speaker 1: a lot of stuff that people say about things, I'm like, okay,
Speaker 1: I see all right, yeah, all right. If this is
Speaker 1: how people have been feeling, then I see why you'd
Speaker 1: stay it with them. Oh and stuff like that. So
Speaker 1: it's good. I'm definitely feel like I'm at a mature place.
Speaker 1: But I also feel like I'm like, I can't be
Speaker 1: most of the time how people are feeling. And that's
Speaker 1: what I think, Like the almost all of these movies,
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, right, okay, anyway, I guess it's more
Speaker 1: relationship stuff than love. But and then I love love.
Speaker 1: Oh Leanna, what about yourself?
Speaker 2: I have gone back into retirement. Okay, every couple of
Speaker 2: years I'll come out of retirement and attempt and then
Speaker 2: I will I inevitably I will go back into retirement.
Speaker 2: And of recently I have I have once, I've gotten
Speaker 2: my AARP card, I have received my pension. I am
Speaker 2: moving nada, I'm in h There's there's that Beyonce quote
Speaker 2: from I Think Homecoming, where she was like, until I
Speaker 2: see some of my notes applied, it doesn't make sense
Speaker 2: for me to give more. And I kind of feel
Speaker 2: that way. About my my my potential options.
Speaker 1: Totally.
Speaker 2: So I'm like, listen until until things improve. I will
Speaker 2: be in retirement until I see something worth my time.
Speaker 2: You can find me in my home. So once again, yes,
Speaker 2: I'm happy to announce I am off the market in
Speaker 2: the sense that I am. I left, I left the
Speaker 2: market place, I got in my car, and I drove home.
Speaker 2: Is it more I didn't purchase anything to do you
Speaker 2: feel more?
Speaker 1: Is it more peaceful to be like, Okay, I'm literally
Speaker 1: just not gonna even be thinking about that as my
Speaker 1: main thing right now for a while.
Speaker 2: You know it is. I still don't know what country
Speaker 2: I'll be allowed to live in in a month's time.
Speaker 2: So that's that's so that's the top of mine. That's crazy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I guess there's nothing we know that
Speaker 1: we know.
Speaker 2: Nothing about that every email I receive this agony, I'm
Speaker 2: I'm at a ten at all times right now. It's
Speaker 2: it's certainly coming from a place of self preservation because
Speaker 2: my crush hurt my feelings, and then I got there
Speaker 2: about them. So gosh, we are contentedly going no going
Speaker 2: offline for a period of time.
Speaker 1: I hurt my feelings and then I got the ache
Speaker 1: and so I logged off.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then after all of that, they let a
Speaker 2: door slam in my face. Literally, I was like, yeah,
Speaker 2: you know what, I'm going into retirement again.
Speaker 1: Soon there will be another sort of rush of people
Speaker 1: breaking up with people.
Speaker 2: And yeah, I think your theory that my thirties will
Speaker 2: be amazing because everybody's going to be getting divorces.
Speaker 1: True that because the people who like got married early
Speaker 1: and got I don't know, you always need to find
Speaker 1: someone on your rhythm, Like it makes sense. The person
Speaker 1: I'm with now, we had very similar trajectories of like
Speaker 1: we're kind of serial monogamists, like at a young age
Speaker 1: and then just like took time off and then sort
Speaker 1: of met each other as like new. It's just like, oh,
Speaker 1: this is We're in a different All of our stories
Speaker 1: and stuff are kind of young stories now of like
Speaker 1: our different dating life. So now we're just sort of like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I've just figured out who I am as a person
Speaker 1: kind of and.
Speaker 2: Love Yeah I love that.
Speaker 1: No, it's really like, oh this is what Okay, this
Speaker 1: is okay. The advice I was getting before this was
Speaker 1: terrible because it was all based on being in really
Speaker 1: immature relationships. We're just like not compatible. Like there are
Speaker 1: certain things where I'm like, I would never have stayed
Speaker 1: with these people had I known that you could be
Speaker 1: what compatibility looked like.
Speaker 2: Oh, can I say something that is sincere but might
Speaker 2: not sound it because it's me and it's seven thirty
Speaker 2: in the morning. Yeah, yes, I'm so happy for you. This, like,
Speaker 2: just watching you in this relationship has been so lovely
Speaker 2: to see. And it's like, because yes, I've seen you
Speaker 2: in a few different relations you have heard tell of others. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and it really does seem like this is such a
Speaker 2: nice like fulfilling and like I feel like healthy is
Speaker 2: like a uh uh, patronizing word. It's not the one
Speaker 2: that I'm looking for. But just like I think that's
Speaker 2: true though, Yeah, fulfilling. You just like that's so nice.
Speaker 1: Thank you? Yeah, yeah, it really is.
Speaker 2: Thank you, Thank you, and you're welcome.
Speaker 1: You really got to be your best self to find
Speaker 1: your best person.
Speaker 2: Okay, no, for really really that's good to know. Write
Speaker 2: that down.
Speaker 1: Does your assistant keep touching your butt? That is not appropriate?
Speaker 1: We'll be right back.
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, great, Now that we've checked in on where
Speaker 2: we're at on loaf, we can read each other's notes.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, Siena. Okay, yes, your first note is
Speaker 2: so right, you wrote, I have a feeling this movie
Speaker 2: is going to be so of its time.
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. And then your first note is from
Speaker 1: your friend actually, which is this is a piece of
Speaker 1: historical fiction. Yes, I felt that so many times. Let's
Speaker 1: think of the times when this was a piece of
Speaker 1: historical fiction. Every outfit I was to say, her outfits
Speaker 1: hurt her ballet flats with the straight top underneath the yellow.
Speaker 2: Sweater sc scarfit is crazy. I hate that outfit.
Speaker 1: It was horrible. I was trying to get.
Speaker 2: White shirt, gray and white striped scarf that with thinner
Speaker 2: stripes and then yellow card to get.
Speaker 1: I was staring at that outfit, trying to figure out
Speaker 1: what it was that the wardrobe department was trying to
Speaker 1: tell us with it, and I couldn't.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Eddie White does a tribal dance of some sort, the
Speaker 1: problematic part obviously, and then the fascination was something like
Speaker 1: that without consulting anybody, just like whatever's going on in
Speaker 1: film sets, that's crazy. And then the point of that
Speaker 1: scene is that they go until Sandra Bullock starts shaking
Speaker 1: her ass and the wall. Yes. Yeah, Like I don't
Speaker 1: know how that was written down in the screenplane. I
Speaker 1: don't know, but it's something they were doing at the
Speaker 1: time that we can't explain anymore.
Speaker 2: No Obama had just been inaugurated. It was a hopeful time.
Speaker 1: Oh Leona, you said, oh wow, this is so triggering.
Speaker 1: What about her visa?
Speaker 2: They were like, your vida has expired.
Speaker 1: I watching this, I was like, the fact that this
Speaker 1: movie is about deportation is like boom boom, boom boom,
Speaker 1: because like, there's so many horrible things going on in
Speaker 1: America right now regarding and then also on top of that,
Speaker 1: we have this personal thing where Leana doesn't know if
Speaker 1: she's going to stay in London where she is working
Speaker 1: right now. Like your boss can call you in and
Speaker 1: tell you you need to get married, yeah, which is
Speaker 1: literally what happens, because.
Speaker 2: That's what often I mean, yes, absolutely, And Eliza and
Speaker 2: I both were watching it, and we both are in
Speaker 2: a similar visa status state, and immediately as soon as
Speaker 2: we heard the word visa, we said.
Speaker 1: What if you guys marry each other? Would that work?
Speaker 2: No, that would be two Americans getting married.
Speaker 1: So they send you back to Yeah, yes, you can
Speaker 1: get shot right across the sea.
Speaker 2: It would not be a heterosexual marriage. Everyone would hate it.
Speaker 2: Every government would hate it.
Speaker 1: Unrecognizable, Leana, some of your nuts you said, I used
Speaker 1: to not know who Humphrey Bogart was. I missed that time.
Speaker 1: I think that often on this podcast. I think it.
Speaker 2: When I first saw this movie, I was like, I
Speaker 2: have no idea who they're talking about. Oh, and then
Speaker 2: a lot of viewings after I still didn't know.
Speaker 1: I was recently at a thing where somebody brought up
Speaker 1: somebody brought up the Last Picture Show and how they
Speaker 1: liked it, and I was like, oh my god, I'm
Speaker 1: seeing you. I've seen it, and I hated it more
Speaker 1: than almost anything I've ever seen in my entire life.
Speaker 1: It was absolutely it was. It was so strange and
Speaker 1: horrible and naked, and they're talking about how how it
Speaker 1: was good.
Speaker 2: It made me feel strick.
Speaker 1: I was like, I don't even want to be having
Speaker 1: a conversation about it. Just wish I had no knowledge.
Speaker 1: I want to erase my you know how, and men
Speaker 1: and Black they have those memory erasers. Absolutely, Oh that'd
Speaker 1: be so nice.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
Speaker 1: Anybody listeners writ in if anybody has one of those,
Speaker 1: we could use it. Leanna, you've said I'm gonna throw up.
Speaker 1: What are you talking about?
Speaker 2: My God? And you said this dog in this is
Speaker 2: a strange obstacle. Oh okay, so my note is about
Speaker 2: the puppy I will say, is insane.
Speaker 1: This dog was incredibly cute dog. I love this dog
Speaker 1: so much.
Speaker 2: Thanks.
Speaker 1: Really enjoying this dog throughout, I was like, yeah, this
Speaker 1: is it looks like Leanna's dog extra small.
Speaker 2: Oh you know, do you know what what our dog,
Speaker 2: the miniature husky, is a combination of an American Eskimo
Speaker 2: dog and a skipper key, and the puppy in this film,
Speaker 2: Kevin is portrayed by four different puppies I googled, okay,
Speaker 2: two of which are samoids, which are those really fleshy
Speaker 2: cloud dogs, and two of which are American Eskimo dogs.
Speaker 2: So literally, of course it. Yes, it does look like
Speaker 2: little keeps so cute.
Speaker 1: Love this dog. The time where I'm talking about this
Speaker 1: dog being a strange obstacle, I'm glad that you watched
Speaker 1: the tube a lot as a youth, but I gotta
Speaker 1: tell you from an outside PERSPECTI as an adult, it's
Speaker 1: not very good. Oh there are a few sequences to
Speaker 1: hear yep I and not in a deep not like
Speaker 1: oh this sucks. I just was like, okay, yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: I see how this is not good. For example, just
Speaker 1: like the dog, like, she's like, this dog keeps barking
Speaker 1: at me. So she's like, I'm naked, I'm naked. How
Speaker 1: am I going to get to the towels when there's
Speaker 1: a little dog barking here? And there's a very long
Speaker 1: sequence of her needing to scoot the dog over and
Speaker 1: this obstacle of a dog sort of barking. It's not
Speaker 1: there are no real steaks here. They just they've kind
Speaker 1: of decided that this is something that's a problem. But
Speaker 1: they didn't. I didn't. It's not a problem. It's a dog.
Speaker 1: It's not a problem.
Speaker 2: Have you ever been barked at by a dog repeatedly?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 2: I have in a doorway. Yeah.
Speaker 1: My grandma had very yappy dogs. Yeppy, yapp yep, yeppy.
Speaker 2: It's an you were trying to get around to them. Interesting.
Speaker 2: I think I understood this because our dog, who has
Speaker 2: some American Eskimo in him, was insane and he went
Speaker 2: for the feet. Oh, he'd go for your feet if
Speaker 2: you tried to get around, which they weren't portraying Kevin
Speaker 2: as because Kevin was not a villain in this film, right,
Speaker 2: So there his Kevin's mode was bark. Keebo's mode was
Speaker 2: bite the feet, And so I understood because if Keebo
Speaker 2: was trying to block me from getting a towel, I
Speaker 2: probably would have reacted similarly. No, he wasn't.
Speaker 1: It was a strange obstacle, and I felt a number
Speaker 1: of times in Hoovey went, this is a strange obstacle.
Speaker 2: It is very like the rom com genre of like
Speaker 2: silly antics, Yeah, what what silly situations can we get
Speaker 2: them into?
Speaker 1: On the right side, everybody in this is very charming
Speaker 1: and so.
Speaker 2: Okay, your last note that you bought is I don't
Speaker 2: know what to say about that? Is this when they
Speaker 2: slam into each other naked?
Speaker 1: No, I think that actually was about the Betty White part,
Speaker 1: and apparently I've said a lot about it. Oh, I
Speaker 1: really want to talk about the naked slam that was hilarious.
Speaker 2: Actually, the naked slam me. When I get laid, I'm
Speaker 2: gonna text you finally did the naked slam slamm that
Speaker 2: was got naked slammed.
Speaker 1: That was crazy and also hilarious. I honestly appreciate that
Speaker 1: level so funny, that level of like uh uh, suspension
Speaker 1: of disbelief in the rom calm world where they just go,
Speaker 1: you know what, Yeah, he's getting naked on the porch
Speaker 1: and yeah, she feels like this dog is stopping her
Speaker 1: like that. That was all that was really funny. It
Speaker 1: was worth it for undergo. Yeah. Yeah, oh my god,
Speaker 1: you don't make me laugh so much. Is where he goes,
Speaker 1: I don't understand. Why are you what? I don't understand.
Speaker 1: He sounded so deeply confused. That was so relatable to me.
Speaker 1: I don't understand.
Speaker 2: It's so funny. And the fact that they just go
Speaker 2: for it with the shot, like you see there, it's
Speaker 2: like full body that shot. Yeah, is so funny.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, amazing. Okay, yes, Leona, I agree with this.
Speaker 1: I completely agree with this. This is where I think
Speaker 1: that what we're noticing is that some of the writing
Speaker 1: was like truly probably awful, but the the performers are awesome,
Speaker 1: so like it's fine, like they can get away with
Speaker 1: most of it, but there are certain things like out
Speaker 1: of the blue when he says, you are a very,
Speaker 1: very beautiful woman, And Leanna said, this always feels like
Speaker 1: such an odd line to me. Please discuss it's so
Speaker 1: out of the blue. I was trying to grab on
Speaker 1: in my brain to where this would have come up
Speaker 1: or why he said it.
Speaker 2: Uh huh.
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, and this is maybe where I think
Speaker 1: sometimes I get confused about the Ryan Reynold's charmingness because
Speaker 1: he's doing his thing and I'm like, wait, was there
Speaker 1: supposed to be a moment of vulnerability where you felt
Speaker 1: like you needed to tell her this because you're falling
Speaker 1: for her? Or is this just that you're saying it
Speaker 1: to be nice because she's being insecure. But she's not
Speaker 1: being insecure really, She's just talking about how like her
Speaker 1: parents died.
Speaker 2: So like my parents died, you are so beautiful.
Speaker 1: You are a very very beautiful woman. It was completely
Speaker 1: It's like, again, I can see that the writing. They
Speaker 1: wrote that at the very end of the page because
Speaker 1: they knew that had to be the transition that made
Speaker 1: it so that she started kind of looking at him
Speaker 1: in that light.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
Speaker 1: But they had that at the end of the page,
Speaker 1: and they wrote everything in between, and they went crap,
Speaker 1: is this enough?
Speaker 2: Did we get there? I know that line always feels
Speaker 2: odd to me.
Speaker 1: Is really out of place? I really was. And the
Speaker 1: thing is, no matter what I have to say about
Speaker 1: this movie and what was clearly odd about it, and
Speaker 1: it was really odd, there were some things that were
Speaker 1: I don't know how they got away with this becoming
Speaker 1: kind of a classic. But we were engrossed. We were
Speaker 1: like eyes on the screen because these guys are great actors.
Speaker 1: They watch so I was like, Oh, I'm really with
Speaker 1: you here, Ryan, But I don't understand why you're saying
Speaker 1: that at all. It's weird.
Speaker 2: It really is weird. It's such a strange thing to say.
Speaker 1: Okayan, Another note from your friend Actua founding father Hare.
Speaker 2: Can you guess which character has this spoiler alert? It's
Speaker 2: more than one.
Speaker 1: Okay, I know exactly what you're talking about. It's the
Speaker 1: low Pony. No, Thomas Jefferson Low Pony, It's not No.
Speaker 2: Do you want to hint?
Speaker 1: I can't guess.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Benjamin Franklin.
Speaker 1: Okay, nobody ever talks about benin Franklin's hair.
Speaker 2: People talk about Ben Franklin all the time.
Speaker 1: No one talks about Ben Franklin.
Speaker 2: People are always honestly too much. People talk about.
Speaker 1: They can't give it up, how jealous they are.
Speaker 2: I can't believe you guys got pen Franklin.
Speaker 1: I can't think of it.
Speaker 2: Who is it the dad?
Speaker 1: Oh, oh my gosh, absolutely, why does he do that?
Speaker 2: It's the dad. And then, unbelievably, it's also Ryan Reynolds's
Speaker 2: childhood sweetheart. At the wedding, they gave her founding father hair.
Speaker 2: She looked terrible at the wedding. She looked so bad.
Speaker 2: I really think they were like, she can't look beautiful.
Speaker 2: Cassandra Bulak has to be beautiful.
Speaker 1: She is so beautiful, and I don't know what they
Speaker 1: did to her. They put her in this horrible like
Speaker 1: circus tent out like striped thing, and her hair was hot.
Speaker 1: Her was doing things I've never seen. I literally went, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's very quaker oats, quaker oats. Yeah, that's really funny.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this dad and this was such a villain, I mean,
Speaker 2: and he also a wet blanket. He sucks, it.
Speaker 1: Seems like, especially because his son's like, yeah, Dad, I
Speaker 1: want to work in an office. I know, you want
Speaker 1: to start businesses all over Alaska and I just want
Speaker 1: to read.
Speaker 2: All over one Main Street in Alaska.
Speaker 1: It didn't I didn't understand what his dad's because they owned.
Speaker 1: He's like, how dah, I want to really work in
Speaker 1: an office. It's like, it's not that crazy thing to do.
Speaker 2: I guess, being very like rich white boy conflict. Yeah,
Speaker 2: in turn inner turmoil.
Speaker 1: Leanna, you've said before, I'm dead. I love how she
Speaker 1: plays the dead card Oh yeah, Betty White is so funny.
Speaker 1: I love Betty White. She's so funny.
Speaker 2: She is like, it's my ninetieth birthday. I could die
Speaker 2: at any minute. You have to do what I want.
Speaker 1: What this movie did right good for you is they
Speaker 1: gathered all the people who have it. They really got it.
Speaker 2: Absolutely. Betty White. Mary Steinberg, who plays Ryan Reynolds's mom,
Speaker 2: I love her so much.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, Leana, Oh wait wait, first I'll say this, Lea.
Speaker 1: You said, I wish someone would wrap me in a
Speaker 1: cardigan on a boat and hug me tightly and tell
Speaker 1: me everything is okay. That's okay, want fine, Okay.
Speaker 2: I'm in retirement, it's fine, right.
Speaker 1: I liked when she fell off the boat.
Speaker 2: That was so funny.
Speaker 1: I laughed out loud for a long time at that.
Speaker 2: We were laughing so often during this film, because.
Speaker 1: This movie also isn't afraid to just straight up have
Speaker 1: a stunt double. Like a stunt double just threw themselves
Speaker 1: over the edge of that boat. Great, it was awesome,
Speaker 1: both legs straight in the air. Love Sandra Bullock like
Speaker 1: she does.
Speaker 2: She's so good at physical comedy, she really is. Yeah,
Speaker 2: like when she's trying to get comfortable in the bed.
Speaker 1: Or later when she's looking for her phone, or when
Speaker 1: she's swinging that dog around. Leona, you have said walking
Speaker 1: down the aisle instead of a bouquet. Nope, oh okay, Leonna,
Speaker 1: you have said walking down the aisle instead of a bouquet,
Speaker 1: I would hold Kevin. I'll admit that sentence was That
Speaker 1: sentence was crazy.
Speaker 2: That's such a good idea, though, thank you. Instead of
Speaker 2: a bouquet of flowers, you're just holding a puppy of
Speaker 2: the fluffiest cloud puppy.
Speaker 1: That puppy was so cute. That dog was so was
Speaker 1: so wonderful.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, that dog was so good. And they
Speaker 2: also put that dog in the right number of seas.
Speaker 2: The dog was in so many scenes and rightly.
Speaker 1: So I agree. I think they use this dog. Well, yeah, if.
Speaker 2: You have a dog that cute, you have to feature
Speaker 2: it throughout the film.
Speaker 1: Leonna, your final note is applodding.
Speaker 2: Oh, I enjoyed this movie. I love again so much.
Speaker 1: I love it.
Speaker 2: It's so funny, it's sweet. The dog.
Speaker 4: The dog.
Speaker 2: Is the cutest dog in the world. Blocking you from
Speaker 2: getting a towel. Prepare for the naked slam.
Speaker 1: Prepare for the naked slam me and my boyfriend on
Speaker 1: Valentine's Day.
Speaker 4: Yeah, prepare for the naked slam.
Speaker 1: Welly on. Shall we move on to badges in trag Yes,
Speaker 1: where we talk about the badges where we give badges for.
Speaker 2: Bodies that are nude smacking into each other.
Speaker 1: And trages for trying to deport someone.
Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely, I do have.
Speaker 1: A badge for this dog. I really like this dog
Speaker 1: right off the bat, and I was pleased about it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I thought you might like that.
Speaker 2: Yay, I have a badge for the line when he
Speaker 2: interrupts her meeting with the execs who are telling her
Speaker 2: she's being deported, and he says, Mary called, I told
Speaker 2: her you were otherwise engaged, and that's how she gets
Speaker 2: the idea.
Speaker 1: That was fun. Yeah, that was fun. You know what.
Speaker 1: That was stinking fun badge for I don't understand.
Speaker 2: Why you're we Oh a badge for nature. Oh my god,
Speaker 2: Alaska is so beautiful.
Speaker 1: Totally agree, I really ei. There were moments where I went,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, this is so beautiful. I was so
Speaker 1: happy when we found out it was going to be
Speaker 1: in Alaska. Oh, Alaska badge for Ramone working everywhere. I
Speaker 1: thought that was hilarious. I loved Ramone Oscar from the office.
Speaker 1: M h he was he was. He was killing me
Speaker 1: in this movie.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: His accent was horrible, completely troubling, indecipherable.
Speaker 2: I remember I thought when I saw this in theaters,
Speaker 2: the reveal that he's also the officiant of the wedding
Speaker 2: got such a big laugh.
Speaker 1: Oh that's just fun. That is a good gag. That
Speaker 1: is a good gag.
Speaker 2: Oh A badge for Betty White.
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh my gosh, she's wow.
Speaker 2: She's so good, A national treasure.
Speaker 1: National treasure. She's just she's the best.
Speaker 2: She's so funny, she really is.
Speaker 1: She's a pro badge of course for when she falls
Speaker 1: on the water. I mean, gosh, that really really made
Speaker 1: me laugh. That like surprised me. I was laughing very hard.
Speaker 2: A badge for Kevin Kevin, and a sub badge for
Speaker 2: the movie's respect of how cute Kevin is and the
Speaker 2: fact that they needed to put that dog in as
Speaker 2: many scenes as possible.
Speaker 1: And they kept going like, oh, so cute.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's just sitting on the dad's lap watching darts
Speaker 2: or whatever. And then Ryan Reynolds is sleeping on a
Speaker 2: couch and Kevin is with him.
Speaker 1: Yes, badge for say what you will about rom coms
Speaker 1: like this, but they get they are efficient, they get
Speaker 1: the job done. I really appreciated it. Her They just
Speaker 1: went straight to Alaska, you know. She's like, well, yeah,
Speaker 1: why don't we just go get married right now? And
Speaker 1: so they go straight to get married, and then.
Speaker 2: That it takes place over a one weekend as well.
Speaker 1: They get to Alaska, they immediately go to a party.
Speaker 2: Mm hmmm, they sing, yeah, yeah, oh. A badge for
Speaker 2: cinnamon rolls.
Speaker 1: Those look amazing, amazing. I wanted one so badly.
Speaker 2: While I was watching Man, I need that.
Speaker 1: I wonder if we love cinnamon rolls the same amount.
Speaker 1: It seems like somewhere we might converge.
Speaker 2: I bet, Wow, we've never had cinnamon rolls together.
Speaker 1: Oh my god.
Speaker 2: Okay, next time we're both in the same place in America,
Speaker 2: because they don't do them here.
Speaker 1: They don't.
Speaker 2: No, they did pastry. No if they if they do,
Speaker 2: like a roll, it'll be very flaky, like croissant type pastry.
Speaker 2: They're not doing the bready like cinnabon.
Speaker 1: It's like boiled suet.
Speaker 2: Okay, I watch a lot.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I watch a lot of those Victorian like Victorian videos.
Speaker 1: I know what people are doing over there, and it's disgusting.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're boiling every pudding in a copper tin. Yeah,
Speaker 2: tied up and string.
Speaker 1: Those are all my badges.
Speaker 2: My final badge is for this husky sweater after she
Speaker 2: falls out of the boat, they wrap her up in it.
Speaker 2: It's I mean, yours, yours is are is even better
Speaker 2: hers is? What hers has is like the cuddliness. You
Speaker 2: can just tell it's warm. It says Alaska on the
Speaker 2: sleeves and there's two huskies on it. That rocked, Oh
Speaker 2: that rocked trages.
Speaker 1: Trages, trage. For this deportation element is troubling at this
Speaker 1: time because we were talking about the whole thing that
Speaker 1: they were saying of like, well, you have to go
Speaker 1: right now. And it just it feels like something in
Speaker 1: the United States right now that would easily be but
Speaker 1: it felt completely like this does not feel so at all.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I have a trage for I bet a
Speaker 2: man wrote the manuscript that he's impressed by. He keeps
Speaker 2: pushing this specific manuscript that he read. He's like, this
Speaker 2: one is different, this one is special, and I'm like,
Speaker 2: there's just no way that it wasn't written by a man.
Speaker 1: So true trage for as we've mentioned, I wrote, uh,
Speaker 1: Betty White tribe thing, mm hmmm. This was before they
Speaker 1: revealed her heritage.
Speaker 2: That she's won sixteenth.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she won sixteenth in this too.
Speaker 2: I mean I think it's her great grandfather who married
Speaker 2: a woman. But you know, from the tribe.
Speaker 1: You know, people's identities aren't fractualized in that way. But
Speaker 1: it is Betty White playing.
Speaker 2: I mean her last name is White.
Speaker 1: It is Betty White, and I do not think that
Speaker 1: is her truth. It's just wasn't it's you know, something
Speaker 1: that it was not a thoughtful I think also just
Speaker 1: chanting into the woods. Whatever you feel is just something
Speaker 1: that's made up.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's my best. Not feel researched, did.
Speaker 1: Not feel researched. The movie did not feel researched in
Speaker 1: that way, and we can acknowledge that.
Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely, I have a tradge for it. He is
Speaker 2: not afraid enough of her as someone who has been
Speaker 2: an assistant. Their dynamic. He was too confident being snarky
Speaker 2: to his boss. I get that they fall in love,
Speaker 2: so there had to be a level of comfort. And
Speaker 2: to be fair, he had worked for her for three years.
Speaker 2: But you're still there is an element and maybe this
Speaker 2: is just maybe he doesn't have an anxiety disorder. But
Speaker 2: in that case, why are you working as an assistant?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: So true. I guess those are all the tragices I
Speaker 1: wrote down, But.
Speaker 2: Okay, I have a trage for some troubling representations here. Yeah,
Speaker 2: this is the scene in the immigration office where they
Speaker 2: were just it was lazy writing. It was so trope riddled.
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, there's also she literally says at
Speaker 1: some point, She's like, I'm not even an immigrant. I'm
Speaker 1: from Canada. It was like, what do we mean by that?
Speaker 2: Okay, what do we mean by that? I think you
Speaker 2: mean you're white. Yeah that's not quite yeah, exactly, that's
Speaker 2: not acceptable. A trage for he touches her ass one
Speaker 2: too many times in this film, Like I didn't like
Speaker 2: the the premise of like, well, you're forcing me to
Speaker 2: marry you, so I'm gonna grab your ass. It's just
Speaker 2: like noah, yeah, quite weird, not quite, it has not aged.
Speaker 2: And then uh, yes, my final traged I just wrote
Speaker 2: troubling for the scene where Betty White is chanting into
Speaker 2: the woods in some really vague cultural garb.
Speaker 1: I didn't know what to say. So many surprising things
Speaker 1: happened in a row.
Speaker 2: It is surprising, And I remember in two thousand and
Speaker 2: nine everybody was like, gosh, what a funny evolution that
Speaker 2: scene had. That it and it is funny that it
Speaker 2: ends up with Sandra Bullock performing to the window to
Speaker 2: the wall. I guess it's revealing of her personality, her character,
Speaker 2: but it's troubling.
Speaker 1: It's funny in the way that like an improv scene
Speaker 1: going off the rails is funny.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And you know, there's a nice sentiment of like
Speaker 2: being grateful to mother Nature for what she has given
Speaker 2: and being thankful for the love that you have. Like
Speaker 2: that is nice.
Speaker 1: I too, I was like, Okay, she's actually like speaking
Speaker 1: good messages. Here also, and not to be like I
Speaker 1: don't know, some nitpicky liberal here, but I just don't
Speaker 1: think Alaska is broken down in such a way. I
Speaker 1: don't think it's just like a bunch of a bunch
Speaker 1: of white people and then like one undisclosed Latino guy.
Speaker 1: I think there's probably a lot more Native representation. And yeah,
Speaker 1: it was, it was clearly unresearched. Also, maybe a trage
Speaker 1: for what's his name again, ramone remote, Maybe a trage
Speaker 1: for Ramone's accent.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, you know, yes, I just I.
Speaker 1: Kept imagining him. I forget the actor's name, but I
Speaker 1: kept imagining him fireworks on my screen for no reason.
Speaker 1: I kept imagining him going off like whenever they're taking
Speaker 1: like a camera break or whatever, that he'll go take
Speaker 1: a moment and be like, okay, okay, I need to
Speaker 1: practice again, I need to practice. This is coming out wrong.
Speaker 1: It's coming out wrong. And then he goes back on
Speaker 1: and tries it again. But you know what, it's just like, that's.
Speaker 2: Okay, stop making brown actors do accents. You know, they're
Speaker 2: like four roles.
Speaker 1: It's not really making sense yet. I think maybe if
Speaker 1: you're a little warm, I don't know, cultured.
Speaker 2: Wink wink, I know, can you turn it up a little?
Speaker 2: I like what they had with the running joke of
Speaker 2: him doing every job in the town is funny to
Speaker 2: you don't have to layer on, or doing his accent
Speaker 2: on top of that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I loved him dancing aggressively at her so funny.
Speaker 1: The way he was dancing aggressively was so not how
Speaker 1: I think of somebody dancing sexually.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, anyway, awesome. Billy Leona showing them to our next
Speaker 1: segment is let's take a boat. Let's take a boat
Speaker 1: to our next segment. Race it over? Uh to how
Speaker 1: to pretend you've seen this film? This is for when
Speaker 1: you are you flew to Alaska to get a trip
Speaker 1: away some SOLIDU and uh, Mister Paxton says, yeah, you
Speaker 1: may have noticed I own every single store on this block.
Speaker 1: Mm hmmm, pretty nice, don't you think? You go, oh god,
Speaker 1: okay okay, and he goes, uh, you know, I was
Speaker 1: in spot to buy every single place on this block
Speaker 1: when I saw a movie, very inspiring film.
Speaker 2: Uh, it's about a dad.
Speaker 1: It's about a dad, A great.
Speaker 2: Dab about a Benjamin Franklin type.
Speaker 1: A genius. And I think I'll tell you a little
Speaker 1: bit about it. Now. You've probably never heard of it,
Speaker 1: little Little Diddy, not a lot I've heard of it.
Speaker 1: It's called The Proposal.
Speaker 2: Let me tell you my order in order to bankrupt
Speaker 2: mister Paxton. We're going to give you a few sentences
Speaker 2: you can say to pretend you've seen the film The Proposal. Yes,
Speaker 2: mister Paxton, I've seen The Proposal.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 2: Let me hit you with a fun fact about it.
Speaker 2: That movie is the only time in my life I
Speaker 2: have ever heard the word decopage.
Speaker 1: Huh.
Speaker 2: I never hear that word. Have you heard that word?
Speaker 1: I am in the crafting community.
Speaker 2: Now, so I but had you heard it before being
Speaker 2: in the crafting community or I feel like you've kind
Speaker 2: of always been part of crafting community.
Speaker 1: I think I think I've had an awareness of deco
Speaker 1: poge okay because of my mom and my sister. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I have crafting people around me. You know what else,
Speaker 1: when she's naked, I know, it's just like a short moment.
Speaker 1: But we take for granted that it just was totally
Speaker 1: fine because a woman directed it, So it was like chill,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean?
Speaker 2: It was chill.
Speaker 1: There's not a lot of like, woa, wow. No, it's
Speaker 1: like an awkward situation. But yeah, and it felt normal,
Speaker 1: so I didn't even think to say it.
Speaker 2: But that, and they balance it by him also being naked. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it doesn't feel exploitative in the same in ways that
Speaker 2: other films do.
Speaker 1: Sometimes I just feel creeped out, you know, like I
Speaker 1: don't trust it, but this was just like whatever. Then
Speaker 1: it's funny when they slam into each other.
Speaker 2: It's so funny.
Speaker 1: Oh, yes, mister Paxton, I have seen the film The Proposal.
Speaker 1: Uh fun fact, Betty White almost turned down her role
Speaker 1: in the film because it would require spending ten weeks
Speaker 1: away from her golden retriever. Oh my god, she's a
Speaker 1: real one.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, she is a national treasure. Yes, mister Paxton,
Speaker 2: I've seen the film The Proposal. Ryan Reynolds's character expresses
Speaker 2: states at one point, I don't think that hijacking a
Speaker 2: boat is a proper way to express your frustration, and
Speaker 2: I disagree. I think, you know, as a wasp, sometimes
Speaker 2: you have to drive a boat in a specific way
Speaker 2: in order to communicate to your partner or others how
Speaker 2: you are feeling it is. I would rather hijack a
Speaker 2: boat than tell someone how I feel totally.
Speaker 1: I think that's really healthy. Thank you, that's really good.
Speaker 1: This is kind of interesting in terms of how Hollywood works. Yes,
Speaker 1: mister Paxton, I have seen the film The Proposal. Fun fact,
Speaker 1: Julia Roberts was the first choice for the role of Margaret,
Speaker 1: but she didn't want to take a cause of a
Speaker 1: pay cut, and Sandra Bullock took it over. The same
Speaker 1: thing happened with the movie The blind Side. Oh and
Speaker 1: she's also offered to Julia Roberts. So I guess Sandra
Speaker 1: Bullock has taken a lot of Julia Roberts. No, she's
Speaker 1: like too high, like she'll take the slightly lower paying ones.
Speaker 1: I guess I don't think of her as sort of.
Speaker 2: The oh god, no, oh, mister Paxton, stop it. I've
Speaker 2: seen The Proposal. The way that Ryan Reynolds reacts to
Speaker 2: the plane taking off with Margaret in it is the
Speaker 2: exact same way I react when the bus arrives but
Speaker 2: has too many people on it and it just pulls
Speaker 2: away instead of opening its doors to let more people on.
Speaker 2: Where he goes. No, no, no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: come on. I said basically that verbatim the other night
Speaker 2: when the bus left me.
Speaker 1: It can do that.
Speaker 2: Hm, that is so crazy, It's awful.
Speaker 1: That is so funny. Remember when you got mooned? Oh
Speaker 1: my god, Okay, this I don't I can't make sense
Speaker 1: of this, but I'm gonna share it. Yes, mister Paxson,
Speaker 1: I have seen the film The Proposal, fun question mark fact.
Speaker 1: A pro wrestler. Pro wrestler Barry Ace was cast, but
Speaker 1: he was never called to start working. Where was cast?
Speaker 1: I think that means that they like booked him for
Speaker 1: this for a scene that maybe they ended up cutting.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that must be it.
Speaker 1: Where would that have been? A pro wrestler? Also love that.
Speaker 1: Love that he's like, oh, I'm casting the movie and
Speaker 1: this no one ever called him. Then the movie comes
Speaker 1: out and he's.

Speaker 1: is coming out on Valentine's this year, and are you

Speaker 2: Gorgina.
Speaker 1: It is called gorge. Is it like hord vibes? It

Speaker 1: sitting in one tower and he's like, who's across me
Speaker 1: in the other tower. I'm from the west, there must
Speaker 1: be somebody else from the east. And that person from
Speaker 1: the east is a girl who saw and she's Anna
Speaker 1: Tailor Joy and she's really hard but also gets soft, and.
Speaker 2: He is the Gorge. Gorgina and the Gorge.
Speaker 1: That's what it's about.
Speaker 2: Oh my god.
Speaker 1: It's kind of a it's kind of like, you know,
Speaker 1: a double situation at double on Tandra double double meaning
Speaker 1: because it's about a big gorge in between these two powers.
Speaker 1: But also Anna Teller Joy is the star, so she's
Speaker 1: the Gorge. She is the Gorge.
Speaker 2: She's Gorge. Oh way.
Speaker 1: It actually makes it much more watchable if you're like
Speaker 1: the whole time you're waiting for the gorge to enter,
Speaker 1: and it's like, there.
Speaker 2: She is, there's the gorge.
Speaker 1: Oh I get the gorge.
Speaker 2: Gorgeous.
Speaker 1: What you can see of mine is anytime there are
Speaker 1: door handles actually called door pulls, the doorge, a doorge.
Speaker 1: If you see any dorges a door to the gorge
Speaker 1: in I had to like source those so like, there
Speaker 1: are certain small items you would never notice that they
Speaker 1: had to perfectly mimic when they had to do reshoots. Wow,
Speaker 1: you know, maybe maybe I touched that door handle.
Speaker 2: So oh my godsst Okay, I'm gonna watch it and
Speaker 2: just look at the doors. I can't wait.

Speaker 2: Yeah, well, Sienna, let's let's get married. In our next segment,
Speaker 2: should you watch this or where we tell the listeners hello,
Speaker 2: if you if we think you should watch this movie
Speaker 2: or if you should do something else with your romantic life, Senna,
Speaker 2: what would you say?
Speaker 1: I want to ask you first, Leanna, what are you think?
Speaker 2: Okay? Okay, I would say yes, absolutely you should watch
Speaker 2: this film and and if you are able to have
Speaker 2: a small teeny tiny, white, teeny tiny cloud fluffball of
Speaker 2: a puppy on your lap while watching it, you you
Speaker 2: must amazing. What would you say?
Speaker 1: I would say I had fun, but I don't think
Speaker 1: it's a must watch personally.
Speaker 2: I think that's fair.
Speaker 1: One other Sandra Bullock movie that you could watch that
Speaker 1: my like, my sister loves this movie is While you
Speaker 1: were Sleeping?
Speaker 2: Do you know I've heard about this. I've not seen
Speaker 2: it VHS in my home.
Speaker 1: It's another one where she's like in with engaged to
Speaker 1: somebody under false pretenses, or she says she's like engaged
Speaker 1: like guys in Acoma, So that's a.
Speaker 2: Problematic interesting, but oh my god, while you were.
Speaker 1: Sleeping she gets to know a family really well, and
Speaker 1: it's like a very cute family movie. But it's also
Speaker 1: her being very hilarious. Oh that's maybe the Jacal recommendation.
Speaker 2: She's so funny.
Speaker 1: Yeah, or Miss Congeniality. Miss Congeniality also a fun one. Leanna,
Speaker 1: what would you rate the movie the Proposal?
Speaker 2: I would give the Proposal for Kevin's out of five. Honestly,
Speaker 2: I don't know how I would feel about this film
Speaker 2: without that dog.
Speaker 1: It's a huge.
Speaker 2: I feel such warmth toward it felt because there's the dog,
Speaker 2: there's nature, and there's genuinely good acting and comedy. Yeah,
Speaker 2: obviously there are many troubling things, so it must cannot
Speaker 2: It's not perfect, but I just love it. Janna, what
Speaker 2: would you rate the film?
Speaker 1: I would give The Proposal two point two founding father
Speaker 1: hairs out of five. I thought a number of the
Speaker 1: scenes were very weird, and that would be my main critique.
Speaker 1: But the performers were very delightful and it was honestly
Speaker 1: just really fun. Like Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock, they're
Speaker 1: both like doing their thing and it was fun to
Speaker 1: watch them. So I'm glad I watched it. I had
Speaker 1: a fun time.
Speaker 2: Also, that home I think might be my dream house.
Speaker 2: It's so it is so beautiful.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love the Alaska.
Speaker 2: It's in Alaska. I love it.
