The Becktel test, 21 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 1: of course, being the test invented jokingly and then later 22 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: seriously by cartoonist Alison Bechdel that requires that any piece 23 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:22,679 Speaker 1: of media have two female characters with names talk about 24 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:26,960 Speaker 1: something other than a man for two lines of dialogue. 25 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:31,680 Speaker 1: Super low bar, but hardly anything passes.

I've never seen a thing in 39 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: my entire life. This was like just a thrill ride 40 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 1: from start to finish. Every every line is screamed, every 41 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: line because unbelievable. It's crazy how Catherine Bigelow directed a 42 00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:44,799 Speaker 1: Michael Bay movie. There's so there's so many twists and turns, 43 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 1: like I had to keep reminding myself, like, no, this 44 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 1: movie was directed by a woman. But then how is 45 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 1: all of this happening? Like there, there's just there's so much. 46 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: It might be the film with the most best single 47 00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 1: one liners. Yeah, terribly cheesy, wonderful one liners in this 48 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: is just mind bottling. This also, and not only does 49 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 1: it have like kind of the tone and feel of 50 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,920 Speaker 1: like an early Michael Bay movie, it also has the 51 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:18,119 Speaker 1: veneers of any Michael Bay movie. There's a lot of teeth, 52 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 1: capped teeth, a lot of caps. I know that I 53 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 1: maybe this is a new little I'm feeling a little 54 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: assaulted that this is being compared to any Michael Bay movie, 55 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: even though I understand it. It's just it's making me 56 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: a little sad. Well back covered We've covered what to 57 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,839 Speaker 1: Michael Bay movies on the We've covered Transformers, and we've 58 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: covered The Rock, The Rock his wife, Uh two very 59 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: different Michael bay movies. I'm always on this new proposed 60 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: segment Vineer watch Jamie's Vneer Corner, where I keep track 61 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 1: of all the Hollywood teeth. Refer back to our Transformers 62 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: episode for more discussion on Michael Baye and teeth addict. No, 63 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: it's Bruckheimer. Bruckheimer's addicted to Veneers. He can't sleep without, 64 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 1: he can't come without thinking about Veneers. So, Anita, what 65 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 1: is your history and relationship with Point Break? First, you 66 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: have seen it a lot, I don't remember. This is 67 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 1: one of those movies that's just been like around and 68 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: you just like, I know I had seen it, and 69 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: then I've seen it a bunch of times. And I'm 70 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: also slightly obsessed with Patrick Swayze, not really, I just 71 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 1: I like him in a couple of movies and now 72 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: think that I'm obsessed with him because of that, but 73 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 1: don't know that much about him. So you're burying the lead. 74 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: You love Patrick Swayze. I would like to pick a 75 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 1: fight with whoever has already done dirty Dancing on your podcast, 76 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: because that's really what I want to talk about, because 77 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: The Very Dancing Legit is my favorite movie, and you know, 78 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: Patrick Swayze is also in that. So these two are 79 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: my like late eighties, early nineties like favorite go to films, 80 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 1: and they both happened to start this amazing, wonderful buff man. Yeah, 81 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: I love him as far as I know, Patrick Swayze. 82 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: We are. It's it's okay to love Patrick Swayze. Yeah, 83 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: well he's no longer with us. He can't funk up 84 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 1: now exactly, and so far he was married for like 85 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: thirty four years. I don't know if that means anything, 86 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,160 Speaker 1: because it doesn't always. But you know, there have been 87 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,280 Speaker 1: no accusations that have come up against Patrick Swayze, which 88 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:20,799 Speaker 1: I don't know if that would be useful to anyone 89 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,719 Speaker 1: at this point anyways, But Swayze can't I'm your dead baby. 90 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: He's gonna always be body or Johnny Castle to me, 91 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 1: You just Johnny Castle. Hard to take that away. These names, 92 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: the names Johnny Castle, Utah, Danny Ocean, Larry Jealie, what 93 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: are these names? I would also like to point out 94 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: that if you've never seen Point Break the film, does 95 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:49,160 Speaker 1: that mean you've also never experienced Point Break Live? That's yeah, 96 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 1: what is that? Do you know about Point Break Live? 97 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: I don't know about Point Break Live. So Point Break 98 00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 1: Live was this live theater show that was around for many, 99 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:04,360 Speaker 1: many years and it was a recreation of the movie 100 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 1: live in a theater. And the way that it worked 101 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: was the role of Canoe was cast every performance and 102 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: the way it would be cast is that people in 103 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,320 Speaker 1: the audience would come up to the stage and do 104 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 1: their best canoe impression. The audience would vote for their 105 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: favorite canoe and then that person would be in the 106 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: show for the night. And the way that they would 107 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: be in the show is that someone walks out with 108 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 1: que cards and they read off of the que cards. 109 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: The other amazing thing is that the live show turns 110 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 1: the homo erotic subtext of Point Break into text, which 111 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 1: is so good. The other thing is that they will 112 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: sell you one dollar poncho before you enter the theater 113 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: because they actually like splash the Oh my god, I 114 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 1: feel like homoerotic theater with a splash zone is the 115 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 1: show I want to see every single time, every single time. 116 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: That's unbelievable. I'm so bummed for all of the people 117 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 1: who didn't experience this show live. Yeah, so you're a 118 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,560 Speaker 1: huge fan of the movie Point Break, I am. I 119 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: am a solid fan, Okay, like I've got facts about 120 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: the movie, behind the scenes info, and Jamie, you had 121 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,000 Speaker 1: never seen it. I didn't grow up with this movie either. 122 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 1: I didn't see it until I think last year on Thanksgiving. 123 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 1: I had always heard of it, of course, but didn't 124 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: know really what I thought the reputation that it had 125 00:07:25,080 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: is that it was like a solid, like really cool 126 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: action movie. And did not realize how cheesy it is 127 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 1: and like how corny all the dialogue is and all 128 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: the performances are. So I posted on Facebook and I 129 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: was like, why did no one tell me how lame 130 00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: Point Break is? And I've never gotten so much vitriol 131 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: hatred about anything I've ever said. I think it's one 132 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: of those things where like when you watch movies that 133 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 1: you watched as a kid and like experienced them when 134 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: they came out or when you're you know of that 135 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: time period, if you've never watched them but heard the hype, right, 136 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,119 Speaker 1: because Point Break is a cult classic at this point, 137 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 1: it's really hard to watch it as an adult, Like 138 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 1: they just don't hold the same nostalgic appeal and I could. 139 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: That's why I'm super fascinated by the fact that you 140 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 1: hadn't seen it, and like, your interpretation of it is 141 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: going to be wildly different than mine because I have 142 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: all these like emotional attachments to it. I write no emotions, 143 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 1: but I ever but no, I I don't have an 144 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 1: emotional attachment, but this is this is one of those movies. 145 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 1: And I guess I'm trying to think of a movie 146 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 1: that we've done. This is similar to it where it's 147 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: like the problems are so clear, they're handed to you 148 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 1: on a platter of like, yeah, here's something awful, stare 149 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 1: at it, cheer for it, even and but it's but 150 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:47,760 Speaker 1: it's such a fun movie where I couldn't. I was 151 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: smiling for so much of this movie because it's just 152 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: there are so many things. Whe'm like, this is so 153 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: poorly acted that I thought it was like a plot point, 154 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 1: but it wasn't. Of like when Gary Busey's in the 155 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: car laughing at Calvin and jobs like that, so he's 156 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 1: like cackling, It was like, is he I thought he 157 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 1: was hiding something? Oh? I thought I was like, oh, 158 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: he's he's laughing too hard at the comic because he 159 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: doesn't want to be emotionally vulnerable with Kianu, right, now, 160 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 1: but no, he really just thought the comic was so 161 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 1: funny too, and he wanted to meatball sandwiches and we 162 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: had to watch Kanu order the meatball sandwiches for a 163 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 1: whole scene of like why it was so just this 164 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:33,679 Speaker 1: movie is so weird. It's a weird movie. The question 165 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: is, is is the movie self aware of being so cheesy? 166 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: Like did they know they were making a cheesy movie? No, 167 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 1: I think that's it. I think they were, like they 168 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,280 Speaker 1: probably knew that, Like some of the lines were like 169 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: a little corny, young full of come right. But I 170 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 1: think that they thought that that was kind of cool 171 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 1: at the time. They're like, We're just, yeah, we're making 172 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: this cool action movie. It's about surfers, it's about bank robbers. 173 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 1: We're gonna have Gary Busey and Keanu ree Kind and 174 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 1: each other. Like I really think the people behind this 175 00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 1: movie thought they were making I mean, because it was 176 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: the early nineties, Like I don't know that aesthetic was 177 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: like considered cool back then. And now we rewatch it 178 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 1: and we're like, oh, this is the cheesiest content I've 179 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 1: ever seen. Maybe, I mean, I a wild stretch of opinion. 180 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 1: I don't think this movie is trying to comment on 181 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: literally anything except perhaps surfers are cool. Uh, And maybe 182 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: that's kind of why I'm I don't feel that bad 183 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: that I enjoyed it so much in spite of all 184 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 1: the very clear issues. Is like, this movie thinks it's 185 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: fucking awesome and it's not, and that's funny. I mean, 186 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, I think the movie is very cheesy, 187 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 1: but I also think it's very fun to watch, like 188 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: it is a fun romp. So a little bit about 189 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 1: before we get into the recap, the like context of 190 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: this movie is fast. I mean, it's it's directed by 191 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 1: Katherine Bigelow, which I mean, if we could make a 192 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,840 Speaker 1: list of movies I least suspected to have a female 193 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 1: director because it's not a shitty, conservative, fucking pro war movie. 194 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: That's I mean, Katherine Bigelow is like a polarizing figure, 195 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:17,559 Speaker 1: but I mean this movie is so silly for her too, 196 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,600 Speaker 1: Like it's silly and dumb as fuck. And this movie 197 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 1: I didn't realize that this movie came out the same 198 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: weekend as Terminator, to which was directed by her then 199 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 1: husband James Cameron. So there's isn't that. I just thought 200 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,079 Speaker 1: that was interesting. So they were competing at the box 201 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 1: office together. Ye, term or two. I don't know the figures, 202 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 1: but I'm guessing at crushed Terminator two. Well, well, point 203 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 1: Break was second, but significant second. However, you know that 204 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 1: probably that makes sense cinematically, that makes sense. But yeah, so, 205 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: and I guess James Cameron also did some of the 206 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 1: work on this script, which you know, James Cameron knows 207 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 1: how to write a cheesy fucking movie, So that tracks 208 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,439 Speaker 1: for me. God, his I'll never I know, I bring 209 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 1: it up every other episode, but his like first draft 210 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: of the two thousand two Spider Man movies, still just 211 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:11,200 Speaker 1: like makes me craninge so hard every time I think 212 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 1: about it. Whereas I was like, oh god, James Cameron 213 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 1: wrote forty pages about a teenagers. Come, why did he 214 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: do that? That's so gross? Anyways, Well, should I do 215 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: the recap of Point Break? Okay? So Point Break is 216 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: about our hero Johnny Utah. He is a rookie FBI 217 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 1: agent assigned to his first case in the bank robbery 218 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: Department UM and he gets partnered up with Papa's who's 219 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 1: played by Gary Busey, and they're trying to catch a 220 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: group of bank robbers called the ex presidents because they 221 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 1: like all wear masks of like Reagan Nixon, lb J 222 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 1: and I think Jimmy Carter. And they go around and 223 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:57,199 Speaker 1: they rob all these banks, and Bucy has this theory 224 00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 1: that they are surfers in addition into being bank rubbers. 225 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 1: Um so the most logical conclusion, Well, there's some clues. 226 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 1: You know, they have a tan line. There's some like 227 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 1: sex wax that they used to like wax up their boards. Literally. 228 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 1: So Johnny Utah goes undercover and starts to learn how 229 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 1: to serve, to try to like infiltrate or like figure 230 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: out who the suspects might be. As you do, and 231 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: you don't make up an alias or anything, you use 232 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 1: your real name. We'll get we'll get there. Because he's 233 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:42,359 Speaker 1: constantly getting into fights, He's constantly screaming, being very disrupt 234 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: of like I mean Kanu really, I mean, he blows 235 00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 1: it a lot, but he really blows it in this one, 236 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 1: which is too bad because Kanu I feel like everyone 237 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,680 Speaker 1: loves Kia, like he is a beloved person who blows 238 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: it regularly. Yeah, but I like Kiana reefs. Refer back 239 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 1: to the Matrix episode. We all I used to sell 240 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 1: that Kiana is Sudoku puzzles. Now that you are a hacker, 241 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 1: you really need to watch that movie, Jamie. I know, 242 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 1: I know, I so much has changed for for newer 243 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 1: Bectel cast listeners. That's the one episode where I didn't 244 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:25,080 Speaker 1: watch the movie, and I'm lying for the entire episode 245 00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 1: about knowing what you haven't seen the matrix. I still 246 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 1: have not seen the whole podcast. No, wow, I have 247 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 1: so much respect for you. You want to go back 248 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 1: and really grasping at straws. I mean I didn't, I 249 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 1: didn't notice you. You did something to make me not know. 250 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 1: I can still feel the sweat on my body from 251 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 1: that day. That was a stressful day. Okay, So anyway, 252 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 1: so Johnny Utah, he's going undercover as a surfer and 253 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,160 Speaker 1: he's really bad at it. So he gets this woman 254 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:57,040 Speaker 1: Tyler to start teaching him, and then LORI, Petty, what's up? 255 00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:01,320 Speaker 1: Petty rules Tyler. She's not like the other girl, right, 256 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: She's a cool chick. She's cool, she's she's a guy 257 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 1: scal she can be like, oh masculinity, but like still 258 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 1: be down but like, I'm cool, but I'm still best 259 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 1: friends with all these bank rubbers because okay, so she's 260 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: friends with this group of people.

Boda Riffith Bosa? Where did he get 263 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 1: that name? He's This actually reminds me of one of 264 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 1: my dear friend's father is in a southern California surfer 265 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 1: cult called the Barbecue Surfers, and I was like getting 266 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: major BBQ surfer vibes from And I would say honestly 267 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 1: that the BBQ Surfers were a more efficient cult than 268 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 1: the one in Point Break, because they also are not 269 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 1: very efficient at all. So Johnny Uta starts hanging out 270 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 1: with like Body and his pals.

My favorite part of the whole movie 280 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 1: is when he shoots himself in the foot. He's the 281 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 1: guy with the crazy hair with its like braids down 282 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 1: the side and then like a long pony on top 283 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:43,520 Speaker 1: of setting information.

And then she 297 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:29,199 Speaker 1: kisses him, but they're both still bobbing. I was like, 298 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 1: this is not a hot kiss even remotely. Everyone is 299 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 1: so cold and nervous, and you see her lip chattering, 300 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 1: like I know that they acknowledge that it's cold.

Maybe one of my least 304 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 1: favorite movie kisses of all time. It was I mean, like, 305 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 1: you know, it was a consenting kiss, right, not a 306 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 1: surprise kiss. But it was bad. It was bad because 307 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 1: he touches her leg and he's like goose bumps. Is 308 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 1: if like that's his like sweet pickup line and then 309 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: they kiss. It's very romantic. I don't know what you're 310 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 1: talking about. So also, who the funk? As an adult? 311 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: Doesn't know that you don't funk on the beach, Like 312 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,360 Speaker 1: just you don't. You've done it once as a teenager, 313 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,159 Speaker 1: and then you never do it again because it's the 314 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: most awful thing I've never sucked on the beach. That 315 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:27,320 Speaker 1: sounds cool, You go do it, and then you'll learn 316 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 1: why you never funk on the beach.

The first thing I 353 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,159 Speaker 1: do want to say is that, so, Jamie, you know 354 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 1: how your form Twitter handle was Hamburger phone inspired by 355 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:06,680 Speaker 1: the movie Juno Rest in Paradise. Yes, this movie point 356 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 1: Break has inspired me to create a new Twitter handle 357 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:19,679 Speaker 1: for myself, football helmet, alarm, clock there and iconic crop. 358 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 1: So yeah, that's my new Twitter handle, so follow me 359 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 1: at football helmet alarm clock. I have okay it genuinely 360 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 1: and Caitlyn we talked about this a couple of days ago. 361 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: It took me three days to watch this movie, like 362 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: when did you stop? Like what parts did you stop at? 363 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 1: What inspired the brakes? It was never because I was angry. 364 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,159 Speaker 1: It was never because I was upset. I would just 365 00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 1: be like, I'm just I'm full. I feel like I 366 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 1: just ate a whole meal and I need to rest. 367 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,639 Speaker 1: Like the first night, I got twenty five minutes in 368 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 1: and there was just like a line that Gary Busey screamed, 369 00:21:55,880 --> 00:22:00,440 Speaker 1: which does not narrow it down at all. It's Oh, 370 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,119 Speaker 1: it's when Gary Busey says twenty two and puts up 371 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 1: two fingers. That's when I shut it up. The first 372 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 1: time he says twenty two, and yet his hand says yeah, 373 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 1: I didn't get very far. And then I watched the 374 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 1: most of it, and then oh, I stopped again when 375 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 1: Patrick Swayzey's bro died and he was so freaking sad 376 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:24,399 Speaker 1: and he was like my bro, my fallen bro. And 377 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:27,399 Speaker 1: then I watched like the last ten minutes like this morning. 378 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 1: The third day, Yeah, one of the first things I 379 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 1: want to say is that, so this is directed by 380 00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 1: Katherine Bigelow. As we mentioned, I find it interesting that 381 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 1: a movie directed by a woman is not immune to 382 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:43,919 Speaker 1: a lot of the misogyny and problems that most movies 383 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 1: that are directed by men have, because, like like you said, Jamie, 384 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 1: this movie kind of hits all the marks of like 385 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:53,199 Speaker 1: there's you know, a woman captured to advance the story. 386 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 1: There's like some male gaze shots. There's like all this 387 00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 1: kind of weird like an underdeveloped romance. There's all this stuff, 388 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 1: so much male kidnapping. Remember the scene where Kanu is 389 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 1: uh staring at Tyler changing and it's just like panning 390 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 1: her body, and then they pan her body again in 391 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,439 Speaker 1: the video where she's like all of a sudden in 392 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,359 Speaker 1: a nighty because we've ever seen her in a fucking 393 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:18,359 Speaker 1: like lingerie little nighty and the cat down her leg 394 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:22,360 Speaker 1: right like cool. And then there's so much more male 395 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 1: gaze with the The only other women in the movie 396 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:29,200 Speaker 1: are the women in the house that gets rated um, 397 00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 1: and they're like, you know, naked in the shower, that 398 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 1: naked chick fucking whales onto those dudes. Though, if feminist 399 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 1: icon woman who tries to kill Kana rees with the 400 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: golf club or whatever. But also the only people of 401 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:46,159 Speaker 1: color are in that villain like in that house of 402 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 1: like the bad bad I don't understand the spiritual side. 403 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 1: They're not searchers like body, you know, right right, yeah, 404 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:55,919 Speaker 1: there's and any people of color in this really almost 405 00:23:56,040 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 1: universally are demonized um as like these aren't I'm sorry, 406 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,640 Speaker 1: keep saying the barbecue servers, these aren't like these are 407 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 1: the cool surfers. I hope that like the barbecue surfers 408 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 1: are okay with me. Given anyways, everyone everyone go to 409 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 1: this just be about barbecue. Everyone find out what surf 410 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 1: cult I'm most closely affiliated with. Um But then they're like, oh, 411 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 1: but then there's the meth surfers and they're bad, And 412 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 1: that's the only time you really see people of color 413 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 1: in the Intern. There's also a character named Alvarez who's 414 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:28,640 Speaker 1: one of the other FBI agents, but he's like antagonistic 415 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 1: toward Papas and Johnny Utah, so he's also kind of villainized, 416 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 1: right yeah. Where it's like, you know, every time a 417 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 1: person of color appears in this movie, it's to get 418 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 1: in the way of Kia news development as a character. 419 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 1: Although Kiano is mixed, he is part Chinese and part 420 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,640 Speaker 1: Native Hawaiian. Yeah yeah, and then as well as being 421 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 1: I think English, Irish and Portuguese. So I just wanted 422 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 1: to acknowledge that. But I'll say that I think because 423 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: he can pass is white, he is still able to 424 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,920 Speaker 1: like get cast in all the big roles in Hollywood, 425 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:09,919 Speaker 1: because usually Hollywood does not know what to do with 426 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:14,680 Speaker 1: people who look ethnically ambiguous. Ever heard of it? Ever 427 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:18,400 Speaker 1: heard of the podcast on how Stuff? What's Up? Network? 428 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,119 Speaker 1: Check it out? Well, that's I I didn't know that 429 00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: about cut. Yeah. I feel like the rock is like 430 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,119 Speaker 1: a like an exception to the rule, but it's an 431 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,720 Speaker 1: exception to most rules of course. But yeah, so I 432 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:34,200 Speaker 1: just wanted to acknowledge that Kiano is mixed. You are heard, 433 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 1: Thank you. Getting back to the Katherine Bigelow thing, it's 434 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 1: it's tricky because Katherine Bigelow, I feel, and if you 435 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 1: have different examples to share, but like she's the most 436 00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 1: frequently cited female director. When people are like, well women 437 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 1: don't direct movies enough, they're like, like, that's the exact 438 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 1: because it's always the margin of error, right, every time. 439 00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 1: Every time we talk about like marginalized folks, they're like 440 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 1: the margin of error, right, like the one the name, Yeah, 441 00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:07,919 Speaker 1: so everything's fine now exactly. She's yeah, she's one of 442 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:10,679 Speaker 1: maybe a handful of like women directors who are like 443 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: kind of household names. It's like her Sofia Coppola, Ava 444 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 1: duvern name Patty Jenkins, and you can Patty Jenkins like that, 445 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,400 Speaker 1: and then like Nora Ephron and like Nancy Myers. But 446 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,400 Speaker 1: that's kind And that's the thing is like women can 447 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 1: make sexist media too, just because like it's really important 448 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:33,160 Speaker 1: that like there's a lot of internalized depression and that 449 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,400 Speaker 1: like just because you're a woman doesn't mean that you're 450 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 1: automatically a feminist or making feminist media. And it's also 451 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 1: like part of the problem with the Bechdel Test. Like 452 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 1: so before before I was known for video games, like 453 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,439 Speaker 1: the Bechdel Test, videos that I made were the like 454 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: the things that people knew me for. So I got 455 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 1: asked about it all the fucking time, which I was like, 456 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,639 Speaker 1: oh my god, it's not it does not mean anything 457 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: as feminist, Like it doesn't mean it's good. It's just 458 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 1: literally giving you a tool to recognize that, like, we 459 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 1: got a problem exactly right. The Sex and the City 460 00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 1: movies pass the backdel test, and that's not really what 461 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 1: we're going the pantheon of womanhood like I got. I 462 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 1: actually got so annoyed that people would pull it out 463 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 1: all the time that I, um, I added my own rule, 464 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 1: which didn't pick up. But whatever, It's fine. I will 465 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,639 Speaker 1: want to um where the women have to talk for 466 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 1: over a minute, because most of the movies that pass 467 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:27,919 Speaker 1: just passed because there was literally one sentence, right, just 468 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 1: one conversation. Absolutely, and sometimes by characters we never see 469 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,159 Speaker 1: again who have nothing like that. That conversation won't have 470 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:37,520 Speaker 1: anything to do with advancing the story in any way. Yeah, well, 471 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 1: and and yet this is a bit of a sidebar. 472 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 1: But what is your history with like, I mean, I'm 473 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 1: curious about your history of people getting in your mentions 474 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 1: about the Bechtel test specifically, like because there, Yeah, how 475 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 1: is your like your attitude shifted towards it through the years, 476 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 1: because I know you've been putting up with people forever. 477 00:27:56,160 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 1: I don't know what you're talking about. Twitter's beautiful haven 478 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 1: of just wonderful, tolerant, constructive criticism. Yeah, I just so I, 479 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:07,920 Speaker 1: so I made a video. It was like a really 480 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,359 Speaker 1: short one to two minute long video that explained what 481 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 1: the Becktealth test was and showed examples that did really well. 482 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:17,399 Speaker 1: Because you know, giving people these like very simple media 483 00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,639 Speaker 1: literacy tools to start recognizing how to look at media 484 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,760 Speaker 1: differently is really mind opening and expanding for a lot 485 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:26,399 Speaker 1: of folks. And that's great, Like the this test is 486 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 1: very useful and a very very one on one level, right, 487 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,679 Speaker 1: which we've always said, yeah, which I think you do 488 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 1: hilariously at the intro of your podcast. Um, but the 489 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 1: thing is that everyone was like every time you talk 490 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 1: about anything, they're like, well, does a test pass the 491 00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 1: test as a pass the test as a pass the 492 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:45,640 Speaker 1: test as if that is a marker of like actual 493 00:28:45,720 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: criticism of a film, right, And So I think there's 494 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 1: there's value in it, but it's not like the end 495 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 1: all be all, Like it doesn't give us that much 496 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 1: information other than showing us a wide scale pattern within 497 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,960 Speaker 1: Hollywood totally, right. So I you know, I think that 498 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 1: we can use it, and I think that like, you know, 499 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 1: being able to integrate it in ways that you're using 500 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 1: it it like it's really helpful, but it's not like 501 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 1: the end of the end. It's not like, you know, 502 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 1: you've you figured out the Becktel test in every movie 503 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 1: and therefore we're done here kind of thing, or like 504 00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 1: if every movie passes it, it automatically means that it's 505 00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 1: like not oppressive, which is also not true exactly. And 506 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 1: we've we've seen some wild passes. Yeah, but wasn't She's 507 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 1: all that where the only time it passes in the 508 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 1: whole movie is one when one female character is telling 509 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 1: another female character that they should fucking kill themselves. Like, 510 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 1: there's there's some there's some wild passes. We'll link that 511 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 1: out as well, because we want our listeners to be 512 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,719 Speaker 1: as familiar with your work as possible. Yes, thank you, 513 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 1: but yeah, and that's why we talk about, of course, 514 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 1: not only whether or not a movie passes the Bectel tests, 515 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 1: but a whole slew of other things. For example, should 516 00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 1: we just get into Tyler. Yeah, let's get into Tyler. 517 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 1: So she is the only main female character in the 518 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 1: whole story. There's a few other women who pop up 519 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 1: here and there, usually in the background, or if they 520 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:12,239 Speaker 1: do have any sort of significant screen time, they are 521 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 1: either naked or selling a sandwich. Oh is that a woman. 522 00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 1: I don't even notice. It's because yes there is. Her 523 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 1: name is miss deerin the is she named? But is 524 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:28,680 Speaker 1: she named in the movie? I think they call her 525 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 1: miss Deer? But all right, I don't know for sure. 526 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 1: She's she's a hacker and she wants to fun Keanu, 527 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 1: and that's what we know about her. That's pretty much it. 528 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 1: So this movie is one of the Brazilian examples of 529 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 1: a man trying to get closer to a woman by 530 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 1: lying to her or manipulating her. So for the betterment 531 00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 1: of the world, right to stop, justified exactly, and don't worry. 532 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 1: He never like it's never in the way their relationship 533 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 1: plays out, that's never really resolved at all, because she's 534 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 1: kidnapped before it can be a discussion, and she does 535 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 1: confront him, but his pillow. Yeah, she knows how to 536 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,480 Speaker 1: aim a gun. What was she trying to kill She 537 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:18,959 Speaker 1: wasn't trying to kill him, just trying to I'm not 538 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: sure she could have. If he moved an inch, she 539 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,560 Speaker 1: would have killed him. Yeah, So basically, so here's how 540 00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 1: their relationship plays out. He's trying to surf. He's extremely 541 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 1: bad at it. He nearly drowns she swoops in and 542 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 1: saves his life. So we see an example of a 543 00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 1: woman saving a man. It's not that common because usually 544 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 1: men are saving women in movies. Um, save very little mermaid, right. Um. 545 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: Then she screams at him. She's like, you have no 546 00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 1: business being out here, basically telling him that he's not 547 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 1: good enough. But then he basically stocks her and it's like, 548 00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 1: you need to teach me how to surf. Yeah, he 549 00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 1: goes to her job. I liked that. We saw that 550 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 1: she has a job, we know what she does. Like that, 551 00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 1: I was like, okay, movie, most movies don't get that 552 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,920 Speaker 1: far before that, though, he is so that We talked 553 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 1: about this a little bit already. But the shot of her, 554 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 1: she's changing out of her swimsuit, as the audience were like, hmm, 555 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 1: this is extremely male gaze oriented. And then we cut 556 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:19,320 Speaker 1: to a shot of Keanu literally gazing at her through 557 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 1: binoculars and we're like, oh, whoa, Okay, so this is 558 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 1: like doubling down on the male gaze. That's wild. But 559 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 1: don't worry, no commentary is made, no none whatsoever. So 560 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,479 Speaker 1: then so he's like following her, stalking her, and then 561 00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 1: he approaches her at work, it's like, you have to 562 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: teach me how to surf. She is reluctant at first, 563 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:38,240 Speaker 1: but then he uses the information that he learned about 564 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:42,480 Speaker 1: her from which hacker. That scene is also great because 565 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: Gary Busey's like, oh, this is your surfing contact, female 566 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 1: D nineteen pounds, hares blue eyes. Do you have to 567 00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 1: say a hundred nineteen pounds? Do we all need to 568 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 1: be triggered? Like what? Why? And he's so offended that 569 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 1: she's a woman. Gary Busey was like, oh, he found 570 00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 1: a woman to help me, which is crazy because in 571 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 1: real life, Gareb you see, loves and respects Mester. Right. 572 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:10,800 Speaker 1: So then so he uses this information that he finds 573 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 1: out about her, which is that her parents died in 574 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 1: a plane crash, to sort of like leverage against her, 575 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 1: to be like, well, like, my parents died in a 576 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:21,959 Speaker 1: car crash, so you just don't know what. It's like, 577 00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:25,000 Speaker 1: I'm finally doing something for myself. And then she falls 578 00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 1: for it and agrees to start helping him. She's teaching 579 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 1: him how to surf, and then they get romantically involved, 580 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: because you can't have a movie where there's just a 581 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 1: man and a woman on a professional basis or a 582 00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:43,440 Speaker 1: friendship basis, they have to start having sex. There's a weird, 583 00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:47,960 Speaker 1: awkward kiss. They're sex on the beach. He keeps lying. 584 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:54,400 Speaker 1: There's a long shot of Kianu just thinking while she sleeps. 585 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:58,600 Speaker 1: Remember when he tries to tell her and she's like literally, 586 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 1: she says, you look like you are are about to 587 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 1: tell me something, and then you don't. And then he's like, 588 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:04,760 Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you the thing, and she's like 589 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 1: puts her finger on his lips and he's like, no, no, 590 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 1: it's okay, don't tell me. She tries to shoot him morning, 591 00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:16,520 Speaker 1: and you're like, wait, what a lot of inconsistencies. So yeah, 592 00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:19,360 Speaker 1: what happens there is that he's, I guess, trying to 593 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:22,600 Speaker 1: tell her that he's working undercover as an FBI agent 594 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:26,879 Speaker 1: to try to find these bank robbers. She's like, some 595 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 1: other time, don't tell me now. Then we cut to 596 00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:33,040 Speaker 1: a scene which I would argue as a weird like 597 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:36,120 Speaker 1: that just as bad writing and weird for the character 598 00:34:36,160 --> 00:34:39,320 Speaker 1: because a second ago she wants to know so badly, 599 00:34:40,040 --> 00:34:43,040 Speaker 1: but then her loins overcome her because he's like this 600 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:46,080 Speaker 1: is so hard for me, and she's like men are 601 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 1: so bad at this. Further perpetuating the stereotype that men 602 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:52,400 Speaker 1: are bad at talking about whatever. But I mean, if 603 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 1: you had representation of men in movies talking about their 604 00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 1: feelings and their you know, vulnerabilities and stuff like that, 605 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,080 Speaker 1: maybe it wouldn't be so hard for men to do that. 606 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:04,160 Speaker 1: There's more ways, you know, you could. There's also surfing. 607 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 1: I really expressed myself best through my surfing, surfing, his art, surfing, 608 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 1: his life. So he doesn't tell her what his deal is, 609 00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:17,000 Speaker 1: but she finds out because he leaves his badge lying 610 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:18,879 Speaker 1: around and I do want to get into the list 611 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:22,040 Speaker 1: of all the reasons why he is a terrible undercover agent. 612 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,400 Speaker 1: But did she say he's a lawyer, because he's like 613 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 1: I went to law school. My parents wanted me to 614 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 1: go to law school. Oh. I thought she was saying 615 00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 1: I found out you're a lawyer. And I was like, no, 616 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 1: that's the lie that he fed her. Got it Okay? 617 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:39,040 Speaker 1: So she finds his badge and then she tries to 618 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:43,200 Speaker 1: she shoots at him, but the movie frames it because 619 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: she's like, you lied to me, or your parents even dead? 620 00:35:45,520 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 1: Tell me if your parents are dead, and then she leaves, 621 00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:50,720 Speaker 1: but the movie frames it as though we are supposed 622 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:54,239 Speaker 1: to feel sorry for Johnny Utah for like having been 623 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:57,800 Speaker 1: found out, rather than us feeling sorry for Tyler for 624 00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:01,399 Speaker 1: being lied to. Having her traumatic past leverages against her 625 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:06,600 Speaker 1: because surf crime. Yeah, but it's because like the narrative 626 00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:10,799 Speaker 1: has her go absolutely berserk and nearly shoot him, so 627 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:13,560 Speaker 1: we're like, oh, she's crazy. We're supposed to feel sorry 628 00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:17,800 Speaker 1: for john Utah, which is not great. Yeah, that the 629 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 1: way that scene it's so weird because it's like, I 630 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:23,120 Speaker 1: feel like we probably all watched that scene kind of 631 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 1: the same way of like, again, it was an irrational 632 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 1: story choice to have her shoot a gun like that 633 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,239 Speaker 1: doesn't line up with who we know that character to be, 634 00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:35,919 Speaker 1: you know, and every other example we've seen her try 635 00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,400 Speaker 1: to talk to him, and it's so it's weird that 636 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:40,919 Speaker 1: all of a sudden they're like, no, she's she's mad 637 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 1: and she's crazy and we're about to kidnap her anyway, 638 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:46,080 Speaker 1: so might as well give her a gun. Yeah, it's like, 639 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 1: how do we make her seem the most betrayed right 640 00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:52,799 Speaker 1: that she's like totally whack a doodle, Like this is 641 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 1: the way chicks react, and you know, bullshit, and they're 642 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:58,439 Speaker 1: like the big climactic like scenes at the end. So 643 00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:02,239 Speaker 1: it's super inconsistent, right, But also like, I don't know, 644 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm so much worth forgiving of a 645 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 1: lot of this stuff in this film only because like 646 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 1: it's so off the rails in every conceivable way from 647 00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:12,399 Speaker 1: the get go that you're like, oh, sure of course 648 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:15,280 Speaker 1: she shoots the gut whatever. I do agree that everyone 649 00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:18,480 Speaker 1: is operating at and eleven for the duration of this 650 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,480 Speaker 1: that it's not it's by far not the craziest thing 651 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:27,719 Speaker 1: that happens. No, But then what's like super sexist? Then 652 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:30,960 Speaker 1: of course we get the third act cop out of Oh, 653 00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:34,160 Speaker 1: let's kidnap the only female character in the movie as 654 00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:38,120 Speaker 1: leverage so that there's something for the boys to fight for. 655 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 1: And and then the next time we see her where 656 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:45,240 Speaker 1: she's not you know, like bound and gagged on Patrick 657 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 1: Swayzy's creepy van computer or was like what was that 658 00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:54,400 Speaker 1: plugged into? What is It's not a wireless computer you have? 659 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:58,359 Speaker 1: But and the whole thing where he's like Rosie, he's 660 00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:00,520 Speaker 1: just has this gift where he can just go blank. 661 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,680 Speaker 1: I couldn't do it, man, she was my woman, but 662 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:04,839 Speaker 1: like he can do it, and it's okay, and you're like, 663 00:38:05,200 --> 00:38:09,879 Speaker 1: what is happening right now? Right? Yeah, that's the other thing. 664 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:13,680 Speaker 1: So the movie establishes that Tyler and Bodie used to 665 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:17,560 Speaker 1: go out and have a romantic relationship, which means that 666 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 1: like the writers when they're trying to like characterize her 667 00:38:20,840 --> 00:38:22,799 Speaker 1: and like trying to figure out, okay, like who is 668 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 1: she in the story? Like what purpose does she serve? Like, 669 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:30,680 Speaker 1: they had to write in that she is Bodie's ex girlfriend, 670 00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:33,399 Speaker 1: which is like not necessary for the story at all. 671 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:36,359 Speaker 1: It's just weird. Yeah, for whatever reason they're I mean, 672 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 1: this happens a lot where they're like, well, why would 673 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:40,840 Speaker 1: this woman exist in this story? Better make her the 674 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:44,399 Speaker 1: ex girl, like, better established her relationship to a man 675 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:46,680 Speaker 1: in this story. But it doesn't serve the story at all. 676 00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:48,400 Speaker 1: It could easily just been that they were friends or 677 00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 1: they hang out in the same surfing circle, pushing the 678 00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:54,359 Speaker 1: point to write, Like in the party scene where he's 679 00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:56,959 Speaker 1: like doing the tequila shots of that woman, he says 680 00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:59,920 Speaker 1: to Johnny, Utah, what's mine is yours? And you're like, 681 00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:06,759 Speaker 1: because women be property, the property of the men. In 682 00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:09,680 Speaker 1: the game of patriarchy, women are not the opposing team. 683 00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 1: They are the ball and the scene very much illustrates that. Yes, 684 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:16,359 Speaker 1: I feel like that from a story perspective, that wasn't 685 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:20,439 Speaker 1: even really necessary because you know, in one of the 686 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 1: things this movie I thought did right, we do know 687 00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 1: a little bit about Tyler, Like I think we know 688 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,360 Speaker 1: enough about her that we don't really need that element 689 00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 1: where we know, you know a little bit about her 690 00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:34,320 Speaker 1: past where she has like you know, she is an orphan. 691 00:39:34,880 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 1: That's more than we know about a lot of female protagonists. 692 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:40,520 Speaker 1: We know that she has a job and a hobby, 693 00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 1: and we know that of course she is not like 694 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 1: the other girls. I suspect it's also I mean, like, okay, 695 00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:50,560 Speaker 1: we're talking about, you know, a very cliched story with 696 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:54,239 Speaker 1: the three act arc or whatever is how you talk 697 00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:58,960 Speaker 1: about stories. I totally up. It's fine, keep moving, But 698 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:01,640 Speaker 1: I suspect there's a thing where instead of just being like, oh, 699 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:03,799 Speaker 1: she's a really good surfer and she just is down, 700 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,319 Speaker 1: she like hangs out with a surfing group, like they 701 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:09,200 Speaker 1: have to justify her involvement as an ex or else. 702 00:40:09,239 --> 00:40:11,319 Speaker 1: Why would there be some woman here, Why would a 703 00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:13,640 Speaker 1: woman be a good surfer? Why is a woman hanging 704 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:16,480 Speaker 1: out in this house? That's not just background decoration. I 705 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:19,320 Speaker 1: think that that's like too much forethought for the writers. 706 00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:22,160 Speaker 1: But I suspect that would be the you know, they 707 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:23,719 Speaker 1: just did it because that's what you do. You just 708 00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,800 Speaker 1: write women as the love interest. But I suspect, like, 709 00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:29,680 Speaker 1: if you really force someone to explain it, that would 710 00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:32,719 Speaker 1: be the excuse, because otherwise, why would she even be there. 711 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:36,400 Speaker 1: God's depressing, Like she could not have come to surfing 712 00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:39,239 Speaker 1: on her own. Yeah. And I think the other thing too, 713 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:42,120 Speaker 1: is that her character is very indicative of like the 714 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 1: sort of rise that we start seeing in the nineties 715 00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:49,920 Speaker 1: of perceived quote unquote strong female characters, where you know, 716 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:54,240 Speaker 1: you have these women who are very conventionally attractive and 717 00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 1: they they're sort of mouthy, right, Like she can kind 718 00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 1: of she's kind of like tough and cool like we're 719 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:02,360 Speaker 1: talking about earlier, um, but is still put in her place. 720 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:04,640 Speaker 1: She's still a love interest. She's still like kind of 721 00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:08,319 Speaker 1: this side character in this this story about two men. Yeah, 722 00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:11,160 Speaker 1: she basically only exists in the narrative in the context 723 00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:15,000 Speaker 1: of her relationship to the men who are the main characters. Yeah, 724 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,640 Speaker 1: but she's like, you know, cool, right, because she gets 725 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:20,200 Speaker 1: to comment on like you know, they're they're talking about 726 00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:22,560 Speaker 1: if you die doing what you love, it's worth it, 727 00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:25,640 Speaker 1: and she's like too much testosterone for me. Yeah, Like 728 00:41:25,719 --> 00:41:30,520 Speaker 1: she'll make these these like comments about masculinity and she's like, 729 00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 1: you know, she'll she'll talk back, um, and she'll be 730 00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 1: quote unquote tough. But like that doesn't really matter because 731 00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:38,960 Speaker 1: she's not important enough and she doesn't get to do 732 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:41,719 Speaker 1: anything with that. It's not actualized. Right, that never really 733 00:41:41,719 --> 00:41:44,480 Speaker 1: pays because she's like big wave riding is for mucho 734 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:48,000 Speaker 1: assholes with a death wish, which is what happens at 735 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:53,560 Speaker 1: the end of the movie where does kill himself on 736 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 1: a big wave. But I mean, yeah, like her like 737 00:41:57,560 --> 00:42:02,280 Speaker 1: headstrongness so to speak, doesn't necessarily play into the narrative. 738 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:06,040 Speaker 1: It just gives her a little bit more characterization, but right, 739 00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 1: it's not necessarily important to the events of this story. Yeah, yeah, totally. 740 00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 1: And I feel like, you know, at the time, it 741 00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:15,200 Speaker 1: was probably like man like, she's a really cool female 742 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:18,200 Speaker 1: character in comparison to all of the lack of options 743 00:42:18,239 --> 00:42:21,160 Speaker 1: that we have in media during that time period, you know, 744 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:24,960 Speaker 1: especially because she's sad, short hair, she's got short hair, baldist, 745 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:27,560 Speaker 1: woman in charge there's not even enough. But there's not 746 00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:32,360 Speaker 1: even another woman. There's not another woman. I have a 747 00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:40,439 Speaker 1: very important question. What does speak into the microphone squid brain? Mean? Wait, 748 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:43,319 Speaker 1: at what point does that happen? Bucy says it when 749 00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:45,440 Speaker 1: he like sticks a gun into someone's face, and I 750 00:42:45,560 --> 00:42:49,160 Speaker 1: was like, speak into the microphone, squid brain, Like, really, 751 00:42:49,719 --> 00:42:53,560 Speaker 1: how do you say that and not just have like 752 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:56,799 Speaker 1: a word cloud of insane things that you can say 753 00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,319 Speaker 1: at any given moment. I mean, it probably means the 754 00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 1: same thing is I'm so hungry I could eat the 755 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 1: as end out of a rhino. Or it means the 756 00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:10,200 Speaker 1: same thing as vanish like a virgin on prom night, 757 00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:13,279 Speaker 1: Or it means the same thing as are you through? 758 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:15,720 Speaker 1: Mr Wizard? Let me know if you find Jimmy Hoffa 759 00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:18,320 Speaker 1: under the seat while you're at it, like his line 760 00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:25,040 Speaker 1: to Sea World Kid. I did particularly like when Keanu 761 00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:27,960 Speaker 1: said are we going to jump or jerk off? When 762 00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 1: they're all like dying on the plane. That was definitely 763 00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:33,839 Speaker 1: a good They also said, uh, when they're skydiving and 764 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:37,120 Speaker 1: they're like debating like whether or not they should pull 765 00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:44,040 Speaker 1: the rip chord, someone says we're gonna be meat waffles. 766 00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:46,800 Speaker 1: Just what end on that note, We're gonna take another 767 00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:54,879 Speaker 1: quick break and we'll be back in a second, and 768 00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:59,239 Speaker 1: we are back. Um, I want to talk about So 769 00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:02,440 Speaker 1: they're is a trend in this movie and across a 770 00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:06,400 Speaker 1: bunch of movies where like during the bank robbing scenes 771 00:44:06,640 --> 00:44:08,440 Speaker 1: or in like other movies, if you see like a 772 00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:13,880 Speaker 1: hostage situation, I feel like women are more commonly threatened 773 00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:17,279 Speaker 1: with violence or they're like thrown all around a lot more. 774 00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:20,040 Speaker 1: They're screamed at more, they're like guns are pointed at 775 00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:22,680 Speaker 1: them more, they're like thrown to the floor more. And 776 00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:26,160 Speaker 1: I think the reason this happens, the reason this choice 777 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:30,719 Speaker 1: is made, is that women are perceived by society as 778 00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:34,120 Speaker 1: being weaker and more delicate, So when they're threatened, it 779 00:44:34,200 --> 00:44:36,360 Speaker 1: like heightens the tension more than it would if it 780 00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:39,160 Speaker 1: was like a big, macho guy being thrown to the ground, 781 00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:42,680 Speaker 1: because the implications always like she can't fight back, right exactly. 782 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:45,520 Speaker 1: So it's like the filmmaker's idea of like how can 783 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 1: we like heighten the tension of this scene or how 784 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 1: can we like really amplify the stakes. It's so ridiculous 785 00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:55,760 Speaker 1: about that is in that scene that you're talking about, 786 00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:59,480 Speaker 1: he's like, lady open up the vault, and she's like, 787 00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:03,200 Speaker 1: Mr Manager has the keys, and so he's like, we 788 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:06,480 Speaker 1: just missed your manager. So then he's like, here, do 789 00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:08,880 Speaker 1: whatever they want and gives her the keys to go 790 00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:11,200 Speaker 1: and do the things so that it perpetuates exactly what 791 00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:13,279 Speaker 1: you're talking about, as opposed to the dude with the 792 00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:16,200 Speaker 1: keys just opening up the fucking vault right, like he 793 00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:18,640 Speaker 1: just passes it off to her like that, what's come on? 794 00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:21,279 Speaker 1: It's so yeah, it's bizarre. And then if you just 795 00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:24,520 Speaker 1: see just like different moments of like extras, just like 796 00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:28,120 Speaker 1: women being thrown violently to the floor, pushed around a 797 00:45:28,160 --> 00:45:30,719 Speaker 1: gun how to her head? Like we see this all 798 00:45:30,719 --> 00:45:32,359 Speaker 1: the time in movies like this, if there's like a 799 00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:36,480 Speaker 1: bank robbery or something, and we perceive women as a 800 00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:39,239 Speaker 1: society to be weaker because maybe we just see so 801 00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:43,400 Speaker 1: much representation on screen of like quote unquote weak women 802 00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:48,400 Speaker 1: who can't fight back or who you know, are super 803 00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:51,560 Speaker 1: scared or whatever. But like, I don't know, like if 804 00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:55,480 Speaker 1: we see stronger and more fearless women on screen, this 805 00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:59,399 Speaker 1: wouldn't keep happening. Yeah, Well, and also challenging the notion 806 00:45:59,440 --> 00:46:01,960 Speaker 1: of what string means, right, and I think we're seeing 807 00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:04,600 Speaker 1: we are seeing more media that's doing that that like 808 00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:09,279 Speaker 1: this historical notion of strength and toughness that comes from 809 00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:14,400 Speaker 1: like male masculinity and like the hero hero archetype um women, 810 00:46:14,719 --> 00:46:17,040 Speaker 1: they just threw onto female roles and was like, now 811 00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:20,160 Speaker 1: you're strong. But like we I think we're slowly starting 812 00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:22,719 Speaker 1: to see more female characters who are more nuanced, who 813 00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 1: are more flawed, who are more complex, and where strength 814 00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:28,680 Speaker 1: comes from things that aren't just like physical violence or 815 00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:32,879 Speaker 1: like stoicness. Yeah. And I would extend that same line 816 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:36,000 Speaker 1: of thought to the chase scene as well, because you 817 00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:39,160 Speaker 1: see women sort of threatened with the possibility of violence, 818 00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:41,360 Speaker 1: but also it's like, oh, we're running through their house 819 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:43,879 Speaker 1: without you know, asking to come in, so of course 820 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:46,040 Speaker 1: they're going to be naked because we need an excuse 821 00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:49,680 Speaker 1: for nudity to appear. That always reminds me of die Hard, 822 00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:52,399 Speaker 1: uh in the first scene of die Hard, where there's 823 00:46:52,600 --> 00:46:55,120 Speaker 1: no reason for a woman to be topless, but they 824 00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:57,920 Speaker 1: find a reason, Like we'll just have her be having 825 00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:01,080 Speaker 1: sex with a random man. We will not see his 826 00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:05,480 Speaker 1: he's he's wearing a shirt. She's totally topless, So yeah, 827 00:47:05,560 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 1: I mean it's just it's like every movie tries to 828 00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:10,640 Speaker 1: throw in and this happens in video games all the 829 00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:12,279 Speaker 1: fucking time, where it's like, oh, there has to be 830 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:15,400 Speaker 1: a strip club scene. Of course, yeah, there'll be like 831 00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:17,520 Speaker 1: a business meeting at a strip club in movies where 832 00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:20,279 Speaker 1: it's like, why are you meeting here? It's just it's 833 00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:23,279 Speaker 1: like an excuse for titties. And it's also like a 834 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:28,120 Speaker 1: shorthand for like, these guys are cool, like or or 835 00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:30,960 Speaker 1: or villain is I want to go back really cool? 836 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:34,400 Speaker 1: We didn't. We didn't talk about where the Tyler's storyline 837 00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:38,000 Speaker 1: leaves off, which is also baffed and frustrating because I 838 00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:39,920 Speaker 1: just want to make sure we hit on it. So 839 00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:46,040 Speaker 1: Tyler is kidnapped by Swaysy's meanest boy and uh, the 840 00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:51,120 Speaker 1: one who would actually kill her Rosie so yes, and 841 00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:54,480 Speaker 1: and Swaysie's character, in order to keep the audience on 842 00:47:54,680 --> 00:47:58,400 Speaker 1: board enough with him as a character, does this weird 843 00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:00,960 Speaker 1: thing where he's like, yeah, I can never kill her. 844 00:48:01,160 --> 00:48:05,279 Speaker 1: Fortunately I know someone who could though, and you're just like, okay, 845 00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:07,600 Speaker 1: I guess he's like, but I don't actually wanted to die, 846 00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:13,960 Speaker 1: like please Bedrock, sweetie. But we see Tyler at the end, 847 00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:17,000 Speaker 1: she's released or she you know, and she's wearing this 848 00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:21,759 Speaker 1: virginal slip, and she's wearing the white slip runs into 849 00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:24,279 Speaker 1: Keyanu's arm. Keep in mind the last time they saw 850 00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:27,160 Speaker 1: each other, she was shooting him exactly. And then you 851 00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:31,239 Speaker 1: see what one of my favorite shitty dumb sequences in 852 00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:33,600 Speaker 1: the scene was, which was him calling her on the 853 00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:38,200 Speaker 1: phone over and over trying to apologize and just grappling 854 00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:40,320 Speaker 1: with this. And he was just like, he's a tyler. 855 00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:42,920 Speaker 1: I'm so sorry, these are so messed up. I was 856 00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:45,800 Speaker 1: afraid you'd leave. And then he says and I quote, fuck, 857 00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:50,800 Speaker 1: why can't I ever say what I really mean? And 858 00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:54,120 Speaker 1: he puts the phone down, and I continues to do 859 00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:58,759 Speaker 1: the message. I was just like, you did nothing up. 860 00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:04,840 Speaker 1: That's on the message. Funk, my kid? Is he what 861 00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:08,680 Speaker 1: they really mean? So good? I prepped you for that. 862 00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:12,000 Speaker 1: Remember I would remember that I like pay attention. Yeah 863 00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:15,120 Speaker 1: that was the line. Oh that I like how old? 864 00:49:15,200 --> 00:49:19,360 Speaker 1: It is so funny. But but she doesn't talk to 865 00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:22,400 Speaker 1: him because we were to assume she gets kidnapped immediately 866 00:49:22,400 --> 00:49:24,080 Speaker 1: after running out of her own house naked with a 867 00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:26,719 Speaker 1: gun whatever, But we we don't see her again. She 868 00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:30,160 Speaker 1: runs into Kanu's arms, and as a call back to 869 00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:34,400 Speaker 1: a problematic scene Plissa earlier in the movie, she's about 870 00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:37,560 Speaker 1: to tell him that she loves him, and then he 871 00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:41,800 Speaker 1: goes some other time, So she runs into his arms 872 00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:43,840 Speaker 1: to say that she loves him, even though that doesn't 873 00:49:43,840 --> 00:49:46,799 Speaker 1: make any logical sense, and then he goes shut up, 874 00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:50,600 Speaker 1: and then she starts to make out with his neck 875 00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:55,600 Speaker 1: while he has a conversation with another character. It's that's 876 00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:58,600 Speaker 1: the last time was here. Yeah, that's it, Bye bye. 877 00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:03,319 Speaker 1: We have to watch the pat Patrick Swayze commits surfing suicide. 878 00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:08,560 Speaker 1: So the thing about the last scene, which again you 879 00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:12,080 Speaker 1: just gotta not ask questions about this movie, which is 880 00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:13,960 Speaker 1: the complete opposite of what we've been doing for an hour. 881 00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:21,239 Speaker 1: But so the FBI has no jurisdiction internationally. Oh yeah, 882 00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:26,440 Speaker 1: somehow Keanu reeves the rookie cop that he's already hated 883 00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:29,440 Speaker 1: by his boss, gets to travel around the world trying 884 00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:32,080 Speaker 1: to track down this one dude that robbed some banks. 885 00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:35,560 Speaker 1: A couple of times he finds him, then he lets 886 00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:40,480 Speaker 1: him go, and then he's like, I'm done, and he 887 00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:43,120 Speaker 1: throws his badge into the ocean, as if he wasn't 888 00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:46,160 Speaker 1: already fired, right did he quit? Like, I don't know 889 00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:49,239 Speaker 1: what that like. That's insinuation is that he's like, I 890 00:50:49,320 --> 00:50:51,160 Speaker 1: did the one thing I needed to do and now 891 00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:55,880 Speaker 1: I can quit. And you're like, like, you didn't do it, 892 00:50:53,480 --> 00:51:00,160 Speaker 1: but you didn't do it? Is his death satisfaction to you? 893 00:51:00,480 --> 00:51:02,480 Speaker 1: Is that? What? Like what you've been seeking for a year? 894 00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:06,160 Speaker 1: I I interpreted it as well. No, Actually that wouldn't 895 00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:08,839 Speaker 1: make sense either, where he's like he wanted to watch 896 00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:11,040 Speaker 1: Patrick Swayzey die, but he didn't want to be the 897 00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:13,719 Speaker 1: one to do it himself. Maybe I think he just 898 00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:17,720 Speaker 1: wanted justice quote unquote right, like you're a bad guy, 899 00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:20,760 Speaker 1: so you have to be taken down and like people 900 00:51:20,880 --> 00:51:24,920 Speaker 1: died and ship, right and so but he's still Kanu 901 00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:27,960 Speaker 1: has a soft heart and was like it's okay that 902 00:51:28,040 --> 00:51:32,759 Speaker 1: you die doing brain Yeah. And also in the year 903 00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:35,840 Speaker 1: he's traveling around the world. What's Tyler doing? Right? Is 904 00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:39,000 Speaker 1: she there? Where they break up? Like immediately after if 905 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:41,480 Speaker 1: she had any sense, she would be like, I'm sorry, 906 00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:44,000 Speaker 1: I was just overcome with emotion because I was kidnapped. 907 00:51:44,040 --> 00:51:46,839 Speaker 1: But like, yeah, this doesn't make a lot of sense. Well, 908 00:51:46,880 --> 00:51:50,520 Speaker 1: they're they're romantic relationship is very similar to ones that 909 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:53,759 Speaker 1: we see in movies all the time, where it's so underdeveloped. 910 00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:57,480 Speaker 1: We're not really sure why they like each other, aside 911 00:51:57,480 --> 00:51:59,360 Speaker 1: from the fact that they're both attractive people and that 912 00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:01,759 Speaker 1: they're near each other. So like, I guess you could 913 00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:04,440 Speaker 1: argue that she feels a connection to him because he 914 00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:06,560 Speaker 1: had a similar experience with the death of his parents, 915 00:52:06,600 --> 00:52:08,520 Speaker 1: which he didn't actually have, and he was just lying 916 00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:11,200 Speaker 1: to her about that. But like, other than that, she 917 00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:13,399 Speaker 1: like very quickly falls in love with him. They've only 918 00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:16,279 Speaker 1: been dating for like two weeks, Like the timeline on 919 00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:18,600 Speaker 1: this movie is pretty short, so when you're on the 920 00:52:18,640 --> 00:52:25,400 Speaker 1: beach though, but like body says something to Johnny Utah 921 00:52:25,440 --> 00:52:27,399 Speaker 1: where he's just like, you know, she does love your man, 922 00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:29,680 Speaker 1: Like she never felt that way about me, like I 923 00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:33,120 Speaker 1: can tell. So it's just like, well, why do you 924 00:52:33,200 --> 00:52:36,279 Speaker 1: love him again? Like it's just the I know, I 925 00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:38,680 Speaker 1: know why she like opens up to him, and that's 926 00:52:38,680 --> 00:52:42,239 Speaker 1: because he lies to her about dead parents. Because when 927 00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:44,920 Speaker 1: you have a trauma and someone else has the same trauma, 928 00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:47,239 Speaker 1: you immediately fall in love with You have to be 929 00:52:47,360 --> 00:52:49,920 Speaker 1: in love. That's that's what the movies of timing and 930 00:52:50,080 --> 00:52:53,040 Speaker 1: if they're lying about it too late. You're already in love. 931 00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:57,279 Speaker 1: You can't get out of that. I would like to 932 00:52:57,320 --> 00:53:00,680 Speaker 1: see how many scenes Keanu Reeves is in and where 933 00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:03,160 Speaker 1: he it's that last scene, you know, like where she 934 00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:05,239 Speaker 1: runs up and they're like kissing and they're like, we 935 00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:07,560 Speaker 1: love each other after this horrible thing just happened, because 936 00:53:07,560 --> 00:53:11,680 Speaker 1: it's the exact same scene in Speed Ye yeah, and 937 00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:14,600 Speaker 1: they make the joke and Speed about how like relationships 938 00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:18,560 Speaker 1: that are built on whatever, fucking like a trauma bond, 939 00:53:18,719 --> 00:53:22,359 Speaker 1: like yeah, it never lasts, and they're like's to love you? 940 00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:24,360 Speaker 1: I just like, how many movies does that happen in 941 00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:26,359 Speaker 1: with Kenna Reeves? I would like that super cut. So 942 00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:28,040 Speaker 1: if somebody could make that in sentence to me, I 943 00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:30,640 Speaker 1: would really appreciate. It's the implication there that someone can 944 00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:33,400 Speaker 1: only fall in love with Kanary as if they've recently 945 00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:37,319 Speaker 1: been through a tragedy, like you can't fall in love 946 00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:39,880 Speaker 1: with them in regular life. Well, in the Matron she 947 00:53:39,960 --> 00:53:42,320 Speaker 1: falls in them because that was a prophecy. Well, I 948 00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:48,000 Speaker 1: haven't seen that movies just as important as talking about 949 00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:50,479 Speaker 1: the only female character in the movie. I do think 950 00:53:50,480 --> 00:53:54,000 Speaker 1: that it's interesting to explore a little bit just how 951 00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:58,760 Speaker 1: masculinity is in hyper masculinity is portrayed in this particular 952 00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:01,960 Speaker 1: movie because the two cents real friendships between men that 953 00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:05,600 Speaker 1: we see in this movie are Swayzy Abusey, I don't know, 954 00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:11,760 Speaker 1: but give me that Kianu Abusi and Kianu and Swayze 955 00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:16,080 Speaker 1: two very different friendships, but both are rooted in hyper 956 00:54:16,120 --> 00:54:20,759 Speaker 1: masculine like adrenaline rushes, where like Abusey and Keanu get 957 00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:25,640 Speaker 1: off on the adrenaline rush of like police where the police, 958 00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:29,760 Speaker 1: and then Swayzie and Keanu get off on like surfing 959 00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:33,799 Speaker 1: and planes, and like it's two different types of the 960 00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:39,400 Speaker 1: same relation planes surfing and planes. They're like we're recreational 961 00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:44,080 Speaker 1: testosterone and we're professional testosterone. And you know, it's like 962 00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:48,279 Speaker 1: the Swayze is the weekend guy or whatever. But I don't, 963 00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:50,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's just weird to see both friendships 964 00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:55,040 Speaker 1: are based in the same like they're always doing stuff 965 00:54:55,440 --> 00:54:58,439 Speaker 1: instead of talking about stuff. And that's also the root 966 00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:01,040 Speaker 1: of most of their problem. This is because they're always 967 00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:03,839 Speaker 1: doing stuff and not talking about stuff. I don't know. 968 00:55:04,120 --> 00:55:07,280 Speaker 1: It's definitely a very specific type of masculinity. The whole 969 00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:09,800 Speaker 1: film is that is the same kind of like bullshit, 970 00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:14,000 Speaker 1: which hilariously Tyler tries to call out, but also doesn't 971 00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:17,359 Speaker 1: matter at all, right, Like it it's just so yeah, 972 00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:19,960 Speaker 1: it's such a throwaway line. The only way she calls 973 00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:22,120 Speaker 1: it out too, is by like stating it and then 974 00:55:22,200 --> 00:55:26,200 Speaker 1: leaving this scene, right and so continue but this time 975 00:55:26,200 --> 00:55:28,440 Speaker 1: without me, and she's still friends with them, so like, 976 00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:30,360 Speaker 1: if she was that bothered by it, she wouldn't be 977 00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:33,359 Speaker 1: hanging out with these guys, but she remains friends with them, 978 00:55:33,360 --> 00:55:36,279 Speaker 1: so it's like, Okay, well, you're not that disgusted by 979 00:55:36,280 --> 00:55:40,000 Speaker 1: their toxic masculinity, So it's just like, what's the point 980 00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:42,320 Speaker 1: then if you're gonna have a character make a comment 981 00:55:42,400 --> 00:55:44,840 Speaker 1: on it, but then like there's no follow through or 982 00:55:44,880 --> 00:55:47,960 Speaker 1: there's no repercussions. It's a it's like a have your 983 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:49,920 Speaker 1: cake and eat it. To kind of where we were 984 00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:53,160 Speaker 1: talking about this recently in the Aladdin episode, where it's 985 00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:56,000 Speaker 1: like there's a bunch of like Disney Renaissance princesses that 986 00:55:56,640 --> 00:55:59,239 Speaker 1: are like kind of what you're saying earlier, inn to 987 00:55:59,440 --> 00:56:03,960 Speaker 1: of like here's a character who will technically say some 988 00:56:04,040 --> 00:56:06,719 Speaker 1: of the right things, but they're saying that has no 989 00:56:06,880 --> 00:56:09,760 Speaker 1: impact on what happens. So it's you know, it's almost 990 00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:13,280 Speaker 1: for like male creatives to be like, well we said so, 991 00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:15,400 Speaker 1: and it's like, yeah, but it had no impact and 992 00:56:15,520 --> 00:56:17,960 Speaker 1: nothing happened as a result of it. So why say 993 00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:19,959 Speaker 1: it other than to be able to say you said 994 00:56:19,960 --> 00:56:23,040 Speaker 1: it later? You mean when Princess Jasmine says I am 995 00:56:23,080 --> 00:56:26,959 Speaker 1: not surprised to be one and then Aladdin wins her, yeah, 996 00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:30,440 Speaker 1: twenty minutes later. Yeah. Yeah. It's like, just like, I 997 00:56:30,840 --> 00:56:33,319 Speaker 1: don't know if there's like a name for for when 998 00:56:33,360 --> 00:56:36,480 Speaker 1: that happens, but it happens so frequently, and especially in 999 00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:40,200 Speaker 1: movies of this era. And then also, okay, so are 1000 00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:44,040 Speaker 1: we It sounds like Point Break Live references this the 1001 00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:49,919 Speaker 1: like homoerotic undertones direct me to them, Like where where 1002 00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:52,440 Speaker 1: the specific moments people pick out in this movie as 1003 00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:55,480 Speaker 1: that is it the holding hands jumping out of the 1004 00:56:55,480 --> 00:56:57,480 Speaker 1: plane scene. I thought they were going to try to 1005 00:56:57,560 --> 00:56:59,719 Speaker 1: kill Kianu in that scene. That's where I went into 1006 00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:01,480 Speaker 1: that scene, being like, they're going to kill him and 1007 00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:03,799 Speaker 1: then it turns out that they're just they're friends. That 1008 00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:06,920 Speaker 1: scene makes no sense in the movie. It doesn't need 1009 00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:11,239 Speaker 1: to be there. It's so serves no purpose. Except to 1010 00:57:11,360 --> 00:57:13,440 Speaker 1: maybe that it pays off a little later when they 1011 00:57:13,440 --> 00:57:16,560 Speaker 1: go sky diving again, but that also doesn't need to happen. 1012 00:57:16,640 --> 00:57:20,200 Speaker 1: Like I think someone was just like, we gotta sky 1013 00:57:20,320 --> 00:57:26,880 Speaker 1: diving in this surfing movie. I'm trying to remember now 1014 00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:29,720 Speaker 1: because when I just watched it again yesterday, and I 1015 00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:31,280 Speaker 1: feel like I've watched it so many times that I 1016 00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:33,560 Speaker 1: don't even notice it anymore. But I know for sure 1017 00:57:33,640 --> 00:57:35,400 Speaker 1: them like being on top of each other in the 1018 00:57:35,440 --> 00:57:38,280 Speaker 1: sky and being like pull the cord. No, you pull 1019 00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:39,920 Speaker 1: the cord. You pull the cord. Now you pull the 1020 00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:43,000 Speaker 1: cord um, and and because Swayze is like he's so, 1021 00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:45,840 Speaker 1: here's the thing is I think Patrick Swayze is just 1022 00:57:45,920 --> 00:57:49,360 Speaker 1: like the cats me out. Speaking of cats, cats do 1023 00:57:49,520 --> 00:57:53,560 Speaker 1: have eight nipples, as this cat facts with Caitlin Go. 1024 00:57:55,440 --> 00:57:57,880 Speaker 1: He's just he's so like kind of hippy dippy that 1025 00:57:57,960 --> 00:57:59,720 Speaker 1: he's just like he's got a lot of charm and 1026 00:57:59,760 --> 00:58:01,960 Speaker 1: ship it. And so I think he's just like hey 1027 00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:05,320 Speaker 1: kind of all the time. And Kanu is trying to 1028 00:58:05,360 --> 00:58:07,400 Speaker 1: like get close to that, and so there's just moments 1029 00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:11,040 Speaker 1: where you're like I can see this fan fiction very clearly, right, 1030 00:58:11,080 --> 00:58:14,560 Speaker 1: Like it's just kind of around, So I feel very 1031 00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:16,680 Speaker 1: underprepared because I feel like I should know the answer 1032 00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:18,479 Speaker 1: to this. Oh no, no, I mean that was where 1033 00:58:18,480 --> 00:58:20,240 Speaker 1: I was guessing it was, but I just didn't know 1034 00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:22,680 Speaker 1: if there was anything I was missing. Yeah, And also 1035 00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:25,960 Speaker 1: the other thing is like I always feel like Tina 1036 00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:28,720 Speaker 1: Belcher watching this movie because I'm like butts so many 1037 00:58:29,160 --> 00:58:32,400 Speaker 1: look at all of the butts, the butt that says 1038 00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:34,840 Speaker 1: I'm not a crook. It's like, this is a wild 1039 00:58:34,840 --> 00:58:38,520 Speaker 1: but Yeah. And I mean, and their friendship it's weird 1040 00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:41,160 Speaker 1: because it's made to be the kind of the purer 1041 00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:44,200 Speaker 1: of the two friendships, but it's also kind of sold 1042 00:58:44,240 --> 00:58:46,120 Speaker 1: up by the fact that Patrick Swayzy is also an 1043 00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:50,120 Speaker 1: unrepentant criminal and kind of an anarchist. And he says 1044 00:58:50,200 --> 00:58:53,880 Speaker 1: the line you project strength to avoid conflict, which really 1045 00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:58,600 Speaker 1: just like boils down a lot of male character motivation 1046 00:58:59,160 --> 00:59:03,280 Speaker 1: down in a pretty crystallized way. I don't know, it's 1047 00:59:03,400 --> 00:59:06,920 Speaker 1: it's a weird friendship. And then Kanu also needs the 1048 00:59:06,960 --> 00:59:12,280 Speaker 1: satisfaction of watching Patrick swayzey die via surfing, and you know, 1049 00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:15,240 Speaker 1: he's just got to get that justice because you know, 1050 00:59:15,280 --> 00:59:18,240 Speaker 1: the victims here are the banks. We all feel so 1051 00:59:18,240 --> 00:59:21,360 Speaker 1: sorry for the banks that got robbed. He's got to 1052 00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:23,920 Speaker 1: make sure that there's justice. I would like to know 1053 00:59:23,960 --> 00:59:27,840 Speaker 1: the psychological profiles of how they determined which president they 1054 00:59:27,880 --> 00:59:32,680 Speaker 1: all wanted to be. Also addendum or additional statement is 1055 00:59:32,720 --> 00:59:38,080 Speaker 1: that they very specifically created that flaming gas station scenes 1056 00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:40,920 Speaker 1: so that they could have Ronald Reagan with a giant 1057 00:59:40,920 --> 00:59:45,840 Speaker 1: fucking blowtorch, like blowing forge or yeah, which I mean. 1058 00:59:45,880 --> 00:59:48,560 Speaker 1: And I enjoyed watching that, sure, I thought it was fun. 1059 00:59:49,240 --> 00:59:51,400 Speaker 1: I think that some of the like the homoerotic stuff 1060 00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:54,680 Speaker 1: people talk about in terms of like masculine relationships and 1061 00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:57,680 Speaker 1: like masculine love and like the close like trying to 1062 00:59:57,720 --> 00:59:59,600 Speaker 1: get close or trying to figure out how to be 1063 00:59:59,640 --> 01:00:04,400 Speaker 1: close one another. And clearly Johnny Utah has some like 1064 01:00:04,800 --> 01:00:09,160 Speaker 1: admiration and interest in being more like body right, like 1065 01:00:09,360 --> 01:00:11,760 Speaker 1: even though he's trying to like take him down, he's 1066 01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:14,920 Speaker 1: like like he's like I'm fucking surfing and like hanging 1067 01:00:14,960 --> 01:00:16,640 Speaker 1: out and having a really good time with them and 1068 01:00:16,680 --> 01:00:18,680 Speaker 1: like trying to get in on this inner circle in 1069 01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:21,960 Speaker 1: a way that's like you could almost see the extension 1070 01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:24,360 Speaker 1: of like I want to be this guy and like 1071 01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:26,200 Speaker 1: I want to be with him or I want to 1072 01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:28,640 Speaker 1: be him or I don't know the difference between these things. 1073 01:00:28,680 --> 01:00:30,760 Speaker 1: You know, well, we all want to be BODI, so 1074 01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:36,480 Speaker 1: I get it clearly, especially with the banks. Yeah, those banks, 1075 01:00:36,760 --> 01:00:39,400 Speaker 1: the banks. I want to go through my list of 1076 01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:44,040 Speaker 1: all the reasons why Johnny Utah and Papas are terrible 1077 01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:48,000 Speaker 1: at being undercover FBI agents, So real quick, Okay. So 1078 01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:52,680 Speaker 1: they both show up in suits looking exactly like cops 1079 01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:57,120 Speaker 1: to a surf shop to buy a surfboard. Then they're 1080 01:00:57,120 --> 01:00:59,640 Speaker 1: both of the beach. There's people all around who can 1081 01:00:59,720 --> 01:01:03,440 Speaker 1: hear Johnny say, you're telling me that the FBI is 1082 01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:05,919 Speaker 1: going to pay me to learn how to surf, so, 1083 01:01:06,080 --> 01:01:08,280 Speaker 1: you know, everyone like they're just in plain sight, everyone 1084 01:01:08,360 --> 01:01:10,760 Speaker 1: can hear, and he's, you know, screaming about being in 1085 01:01:10,760 --> 01:01:14,640 Speaker 1: the FBI. Then after Tyler saves him, he screams out 1086 01:01:14,720 --> 01:01:19,200 Speaker 1: his real name and she's like, I don't care, which 1087 01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:23,200 Speaker 1: I loved. Yeah, And then a bunch of people who 1088 01:01:23,400 --> 01:01:25,160 Speaker 1: turn out to be the people that he is trying 1089 01:01:25,200 --> 01:01:28,360 Speaker 1: to take down as the ex presidents all recognize him 1090 01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:31,520 Speaker 1: as a college football star and they know his real name. 1091 01:01:32,440 --> 01:01:34,280 Speaker 1: If they just did a little bit of research, they 1092 01:01:34,280 --> 01:01:36,760 Speaker 1: could like figure out that he's in the FBI. We 1093 01:01:36,800 --> 01:01:40,240 Speaker 1: know computers exist because there's a hacker and there's uh, 1094 01:01:40,320 --> 01:01:45,400 Speaker 1: Patrick Swayzey's trunk computer. I was actually thinking about this though, 1095 01:01:45,400 --> 01:01:47,680 Speaker 1: because I was like, oh, this was like pre wide 1096 01:01:47,680 --> 01:01:50,280 Speaker 1: scale adoption of the Internet, so you couldn't just google him, 1097 01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:52,720 Speaker 1: and he was in the FBI, so I was a 1098 01:01:52,720 --> 01:01:55,840 Speaker 1: little I was slightly more forgiving about that, even though 1099 01:01:55,880 --> 01:01:58,880 Speaker 1: it's clearly stupid. But then there's some other stuff that happens, 1100 01:01:58,880 --> 01:02:03,880 Speaker 1: which like Papa's is near the beach, parked in what's 1101 01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:07,200 Speaker 1: clearly like an undercover cop car, scoping things out with 1102 01:02:07,320 --> 01:02:11,880 Speaker 1: binoculars in plain sight, and then Johnny is talking to 1103 01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:14,440 Speaker 1: him on a walkie talkie in the middle of the beach, 1104 01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:17,400 Speaker 1: again in plain sight. So they're just like, yeah, let's 1105 01:02:17,480 --> 01:02:20,400 Speaker 1: use our like binoculars and walkie talking us just where 1106 01:02:20,440 --> 01:02:24,120 Speaker 1: everyone can see us. They both miss the bank robbery 1107 01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:27,200 Speaker 1: that's taking place like a hundred yards away because they're 1108 01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:31,520 Speaker 1: so focused on sandwiches. I was like, surely the sandwiches 1109 01:02:31,520 --> 01:02:35,280 Speaker 1: will become relevant at some point. They never do. He's like, 1110 01:02:35,320 --> 01:02:38,680 Speaker 1: I need to meatball sandwiches. He we see him order 1111 01:02:38,800 --> 01:02:40,920 Speaker 1: them meat ball sandwiches. He comes back with the meat 1112 01:02:40,960 --> 01:02:43,520 Speaker 1: po sandwiches because he's like, man, maybe I should have 1113 01:02:43,520 --> 01:02:48,000 Speaker 1: gotten three meat bos sandwiches. Um those okay? So Kiano 1114 01:02:48,280 --> 01:02:52,240 Speaker 1: orders to meat ball sandwiches, one tune a sandwich for himself, 1115 01:02:52,320 --> 01:02:56,880 Speaker 1: and two lemonades and it only cost four in today's money. 1116 01:02:57,000 --> 01:03:00,600 Speaker 1: I did the inflation calculator. That's it have went to 1117 01:03:01,240 --> 01:03:04,160 Speaker 1: fourteen dollars and thirty two cents, which is still very 1118 01:03:04,240 --> 01:03:07,680 Speaker 1: cheap for three sandwiches and two lemonades. Like, what's that 1119 01:03:07,760 --> 01:03:10,040 Speaker 1: all about? What area of l A are they? And 1120 01:03:10,320 --> 01:03:14,600 Speaker 1: truly the point is is that they are extremely bad. 1121 01:03:14,640 --> 01:03:17,720 Speaker 1: And then like Johnny Utah leaves his badge out where 1122 01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:21,560 Speaker 1: Tyler can find it. He's so bad, it's not everyone 1123 01:03:21,720 --> 01:03:24,640 Speaker 1: knows his identity and he basically tells every single person 1124 01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:26,920 Speaker 1: in the movie that he is an undercover FBI agent. 1125 01:03:27,440 --> 01:03:31,080 Speaker 1: This movie is so well, I mean, this is this 1126 01:03:31,160 --> 01:03:35,920 Speaker 1: is a movie that is not progressive in literally any way. 1127 01:03:36,080 --> 01:03:38,520 Speaker 1: The world did not move forward really in any way 1128 01:03:38,640 --> 01:03:42,000 Speaker 1: because it was made. However, I really enjoyed it and 1129 01:03:42,040 --> 01:03:46,720 Speaker 1: I would recommend people watch it and watch it with friends. Yeah, 1130 01:03:46,760 --> 01:03:48,640 Speaker 1: I agree, we should find the people who do Point 1131 01:03:48,640 --> 01:03:51,360 Speaker 1: Break Live to come back for like one reunion for 1132 01:03:51,480 --> 01:03:53,960 Speaker 1: us that would be amazing. Yeah, and the fact that 1133 01:03:54,000 --> 01:03:56,760 Speaker 1: it did inspire media spinoffs like that also make me 1134 01:03:56,840 --> 01:04:00,280 Speaker 1: happy it exists. Yeah. Yeah, And um, what's this base 1135 01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:03,600 Speaker 1: hot Fuzz which I actually haven't seen. Oh yes, there's 1136 01:04:03,600 --> 01:04:07,560 Speaker 1: so much of Point Breaking that one of the characters 1137 01:04:07,680 --> 01:04:09,440 Speaker 1: is like talking to Simon Peg and he's just like, 1138 01:04:09,840 --> 01:04:11,600 Speaker 1: if you ever pulled out your gun and then shot 1139 01:04:11,640 --> 01:04:14,760 Speaker 1: it into the air and went ah, And then he doesn't, 1140 01:04:14,760 --> 01:04:16,680 Speaker 1: But then that character gets to do it later in 1141 01:04:16,680 --> 01:04:19,760 Speaker 1: the movie. It's great. Um. One last thing I wanted 1142 01:04:19,800 --> 01:04:23,440 Speaker 1: to say is that I do think it's cool that 1143 01:04:24,120 --> 01:04:28,360 Speaker 1: a woman got to direct like a popular action movie 1144 01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:31,520 Speaker 1: in the early nineties. Um, because that's a genre that 1145 01:04:31,560 --> 01:04:34,400 Speaker 1: women usually do not get to direct, because in the 1146 01:04:34,440 --> 01:04:37,320 Speaker 1: off chance that a woman is hired to direct a movie, 1147 01:04:37,600 --> 01:04:41,160 Speaker 1: it's usually either a rom com or like a romantic drama. 1148 01:04:41,360 --> 01:04:42,720 Speaker 1: I was like, oh man, this is so cool that 1149 01:04:42,800 --> 01:04:46,240 Speaker 1: like a woman directed Point Break. You know of a 1150 01:04:46,400 --> 01:04:50,360 Speaker 1: famous popular action flick that resonates with a lot of 1151 01:04:50,560 --> 01:04:53,720 Speaker 1: especially men. So I was like, Okay, that's cool. But 1152 01:04:53,920 --> 01:04:56,520 Speaker 1: as we've said, like, I was counter that with being 1153 01:04:56,560 --> 01:04:59,880 Speaker 1: like I would wager that the reason she got to 1154 01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:02,600 Speaker 1: do that is because she played the game and directed 1155 01:05:02,640 --> 01:05:06,160 Speaker 1: it like most men would exactly at that time. I 1156 01:05:06,160 --> 01:05:08,640 Speaker 1: don't know, because again this is a Michael Bay movie 1157 01:05:08,720 --> 01:05:12,440 Speaker 1: in that the actors are almost always screaming their lines. 1158 01:05:12,800 --> 01:05:16,840 Speaker 1: The lines are extremely corny and terrible. The line reads 1159 01:05:16,880 --> 01:05:20,640 Speaker 1: are bad, and there's like over the top action sequences. 1160 01:05:20,680 --> 01:05:23,920 Speaker 1: Like everything screams Michael Bay. I mean you didn't love 1161 01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:26,280 Speaker 1: the line? I guess we must have an asshole shortage. 1162 01:05:26,560 --> 01:05:32,560 Speaker 1: Not so far, I love every single line. I still thinking, 1163 01:05:32,760 --> 01:05:35,640 Speaker 1: ha ha ha ha ha ha. This Calvin and Hobbs 1164 01:05:35,720 --> 01:05:39,680 Speaker 1: is funny. Hey, get me a meat boss switch. Still 1165 01:05:39,960 --> 01:05:43,160 Speaker 1: one of the wilder trains of thoughts I've ever encountered. 1166 01:05:44,440 --> 01:05:48,960 Speaker 1: Does anyone have any other thoughts about the movie? I 1167 01:05:49,640 --> 01:05:53,880 Speaker 1: mean so many? Like do vaults just have small piles 1168 01:05:53,880 --> 01:05:55,880 Speaker 1: of money in them? That would have vaults actually looks like? 1169 01:05:56,840 --> 01:06:00,960 Speaker 1: I think that's an important question. Yeah, just unsealed lose money. 1170 01:06:01,280 --> 01:06:04,000 Speaker 1: It's just like the floor is covered in pennies in 1171 01:06:04,240 --> 01:06:09,760 Speaker 1: this version of the basically The Cave of Wonders. Yes, 1172 01:06:09,920 --> 01:06:12,200 Speaker 1: if you haven't seen point breaks added to the list 1173 01:06:12,280 --> 01:06:15,600 Speaker 1: when you go to revisit cult classics, this is definitely 1174 01:06:15,640 --> 01:06:18,760 Speaker 1: one to make sure you catch and don't add me 1175 01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:20,520 Speaker 1: when you don't like it. I don't want to hear. 1176 01:06:20,520 --> 01:06:23,720 Speaker 1: I don't want to hear about it. Shall we determine 1177 01:06:23,720 --> 01:06:31,080 Speaker 1: whether or not this movie passes the Bechtel test? Yeah, no, no, 1178 01:06:31,240 --> 01:06:35,440 Speaker 1: obviously not even close to Women do not even interact. 1179 01:06:35,480 --> 01:06:37,720 Speaker 1: I think the only scene where there are two women 1180 01:06:37,840 --> 01:06:40,400 Speaker 1: in the same scene together is when they do the raid. 1181 01:06:40,520 --> 01:06:43,640 Speaker 1: For like all those aggro surfer dudes, one of them 1182 01:06:43,760 --> 01:06:46,640 Speaker 1: is the party scene. Oh, that is right, but I 1183 01:06:46,680 --> 01:06:50,400 Speaker 1: don't think any women interact there. I'd like to propose 1184 01:06:50,720 --> 01:06:53,720 Speaker 1: a new addendum to the Bechtel tests, which is that 1185 01:06:54,560 --> 01:07:02,200 Speaker 1: if a woman talks to a meatball sandwich, it passes. Yeah, 1186 01:07:02,280 --> 01:07:05,840 Speaker 1: it passed. Even if the meat sandwich does not verbally respond. 1187 01:07:06,000 --> 01:07:10,240 Speaker 1: Even if the meat ball sandwich identifies male, it passes. 1188 01:07:12,200 --> 01:07:14,520 Speaker 1: I will bat I will send that motion, thank you 1189 01:07:14,560 --> 01:07:17,880 Speaker 1: so much. But yeah, so women do not interact at all. 1190 01:07:17,960 --> 01:07:21,560 Speaker 1: There's the scene in like the Raid, where there's one 1191 01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:24,200 Speaker 1: woman who's wearing a bikini and woman one woman who 1192 01:07:24,320 --> 01:07:27,960 Speaker 1: is wearing nothing, and uh, they're both I guess they're 1193 01:07:28,000 --> 01:07:31,960 Speaker 1: fighting off the FBI. That I mean, we didn't that 1194 01:07:32,120 --> 01:07:35,040 Speaker 1: scene is just wild. All the men are dressed like 1195 01:07:35,160 --> 01:07:37,880 Speaker 1: fully dressed, not even like partially dressed, and all the 1196 01:07:37,880 --> 01:07:41,040 Speaker 1: women are not, which is amusing in the opposite of 1197 01:07:41,240 --> 01:07:44,120 Speaker 1: the definition of that word. Yeah. Yeah, it doesn't make 1198 01:07:44,160 --> 01:07:47,320 Speaker 1: any sense why they're both barely wearing anything or wearing 1199 01:07:47,360 --> 01:07:50,320 Speaker 1: nothing at all. But so yeah, does not pass the 1200 01:07:50,360 --> 01:07:53,760 Speaker 1: Bechdel test. Let's rate the movie on our nipple scale 1201 01:07:53,880 --> 01:07:57,480 Speaker 1: serie to five nipples based on its portrayal and representation 1202 01:07:57,560 --> 01:07:59,520 Speaker 1: of women. Um, I'm going to have to give this 1203 01:07:59,600 --> 01:08:04,560 Speaker 1: like a half nipple. Yeah. I suppose that Tyler, if 1204 01:08:04,600 --> 01:08:07,960 Speaker 1: you just sort of isolate her and take the things 1205 01:08:08,000 --> 01:08:09,920 Speaker 1: that she says in terms of like not being impressed 1206 01:08:09,920 --> 01:08:13,200 Speaker 1: with toxic masculinity and like not wanting to be around 1207 01:08:13,240 --> 01:08:17,160 Speaker 1: too much test tossterone and you know, being an athlete 1208 01:08:17,360 --> 01:08:20,320 Speaker 1: women athletes, that's pretty cool. We don't get to see 1209 01:08:20,360 --> 01:08:22,519 Speaker 1: that much in film. You know, she's good at what 1210 01:08:22,600 --> 01:08:26,200 Speaker 1: she does, like a man needs her to help him 1211 01:08:26,280 --> 01:08:28,960 Speaker 1: learn how to surf, but those just feel like you 1212 01:08:29,439 --> 01:08:32,120 Speaker 1: see her doing it, and it's like usually when you yeah, 1213 01:08:32,160 --> 01:08:33,800 Speaker 1: like when you hear that women are good at a 1214 01:08:33,840 --> 01:08:35,559 Speaker 1: thing that you don't, you just hear it. You don't 1215 01:08:35,560 --> 01:08:37,400 Speaker 1: actually see it, so that you know, that's one thing, 1216 01:08:37,439 --> 01:08:39,880 Speaker 1: and there is the absence unless I miss something, There 1217 01:08:39,960 --> 01:08:41,800 Speaker 1: is the absence of that moment that I was kind 1218 01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:44,559 Speaker 1: of waiting for, which is like the moment where we 1219 01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:47,599 Speaker 1: see her because surfing and all the dudes are like, whoa, 1220 01:08:48,000 --> 01:08:51,000 Speaker 1: she can do? Well we do because that that that 1221 01:08:51,080 --> 01:08:53,160 Speaker 1: was a moment I was waiting for that fortunately did 1222 01:08:53,160 --> 01:08:56,280 Speaker 1: not come. That's true, it's nice, but those things all 1223 01:08:56,320 --> 01:09:03,599 Speaker 1: feel like shallow victories, especially with Whoa not even in turns, 1224 01:09:05,800 --> 01:09:08,920 Speaker 1: but considering all the other things that happened in the movie, 1225 01:09:09,040 --> 01:09:11,960 Speaker 1: where like basically her existence in the story is only 1226 01:09:11,960 --> 01:09:14,160 Speaker 1: to be the romantic interest and then to later be 1227 01:09:14,360 --> 01:09:19,360 Speaker 1: kidnapped and used as leverage for the male hero, the 1228 01:09:19,439 --> 01:09:22,479 Speaker 1: male gaze shots of pretty much all the women you 1229 01:09:22,520 --> 01:09:25,840 Speaker 1: see in the movie, which is again hardly any of them, 1230 01:09:25,880 --> 01:09:31,759 Speaker 1: the total lack of women of color, just everything about 1231 01:09:32,080 --> 01:09:36,559 Speaker 1: it is not handled well. So um, her treatment in 1232 01:09:36,600 --> 01:09:42,160 Speaker 1: the movie is like very very stereotypical like action movies, 1233 01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:46,120 Speaker 1: and it does feel weird that coming from a movie 1234 01:09:46,160 --> 01:09:51,439 Speaker 1: directed by a woman. It's a bizarre paradox. Yeah, she's 1235 01:09:51,479 --> 01:09:55,519 Speaker 1: basically mistreated or her character is mishandled in every regard 1236 01:09:55,840 --> 01:09:58,840 Speaker 1: throughout the whole movie, and it gets one half nipple 1237 01:09:58,960 --> 01:10:02,439 Speaker 1: from me, And I will give that half nipple too. 1238 01:10:02,720 --> 01:10:04,920 Speaker 1: I'll give it just right back to Lori Petty. Good 1239 01:10:04,960 --> 01:10:09,240 Speaker 1: for her. Yeah, I'm gonna give the movie one nipple, 1240 01:10:09,320 --> 01:10:11,920 Speaker 1: even for the reasons you stated. I also think that 1241 01:10:11,960 --> 01:10:15,000 Speaker 1: this is an example of, you know, the fact that 1242 01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:18,000 Speaker 1: just because a woman is in a key creative role 1243 01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:21,040 Speaker 1: in the movie does not mean that it's a feminist text, uh, 1244 01:10:21,040 --> 01:10:24,720 Speaker 1: and that that is just a thing that exists in 1245 01:10:24,720 --> 01:10:28,880 Speaker 1: the world. Not all women are feminists, and not all 1246 01:10:29,240 --> 01:10:32,320 Speaker 1: media created by women are pro woman, just on the 1247 01:10:32,360 --> 01:10:34,280 Speaker 1: merit that it was created by a woman, which is 1248 01:10:34,680 --> 01:10:39,479 Speaker 1: unfortunate but true. I also could understand I'd be interested 1249 01:10:39,479 --> 01:10:43,519 Speaker 1: in hearing Katherine Bigela speak on this now. But you know, 1250 01:10:43,640 --> 01:10:45,519 Speaker 1: I mean, there's a number of reasons I could I 1251 01:10:45,520 --> 01:10:50,120 Speaker 1: could guess why her movies were not treating women especially 1252 01:10:50,120 --> 01:10:54,040 Speaker 1: well at this particular point in history. Um, would the 1253 01:10:54,120 --> 01:10:56,040 Speaker 1: job have been taken from her if she had brought 1254 01:10:56,080 --> 01:10:58,320 Speaker 1: stuff up with it? You know, I'd be interested in 1255 01:10:58,320 --> 01:11:00,519 Speaker 1: hearing more about what she thought. But yeah, I mean, 1256 01:11:00,560 --> 01:11:04,479 Speaker 1: I think you covered it pretty succinctly, Caitlin. Uh, And 1257 01:11:04,720 --> 01:11:06,720 Speaker 1: I would just like to bring up the fact that 1258 01:11:06,760 --> 01:11:10,800 Speaker 1: there was a female hacker, and uh, that is I 1259 01:11:10,800 --> 01:11:12,640 Speaker 1: don't even think she was hacking. I think she was 1260 01:11:12,680 --> 01:11:15,519 Speaker 1: just looking up information on their database that they had 1261 01:11:15,640 --> 01:11:19,120 Speaker 1: easy access to. Well, as a hacker, I can say 1262 01:11:19,280 --> 01:11:23,439 Speaker 1: that googling is actually hacking. So giving your data to 1263 01:11:23,520 --> 01:11:27,160 Speaker 1: Google is hacking, and giving your data to Zuckerberg and 1264 01:11:27,200 --> 01:11:30,920 Speaker 1: Bezos is hacking. So I'm a hacker just by having 1265 01:11:30,960 --> 01:11:34,040 Speaker 1: a Facebook profile. Do you have a computer, Yes, then 1266 01:11:34,080 --> 01:11:38,400 Speaker 1: you're a hacker there. Uh so, and then of course 1267 01:11:38,439 --> 01:11:43,320 Speaker 1: feminist icon woman who sells me ball sandwiches. So so 1268 01:11:43,360 --> 01:11:45,320 Speaker 1: I'll give it one nipple, and I'm going to give 1269 01:11:45,320 --> 01:11:51,599 Speaker 1: the nipple to the bill sandwich. Great, yeah, Anita, Uh, 1270 01:11:52,120 --> 01:11:54,360 Speaker 1: can we give minus nipples? I guess that would be 1271 01:11:54,400 --> 01:11:57,519 Speaker 1: the absence of women. You can do whatever. You know, 1272 01:11:57,720 --> 01:12:03,479 Speaker 1: there were there were women. There bodies were in this movie. 1273 01:12:04,560 --> 01:12:07,639 Speaker 1: I will do one, maybe three quarters of it. I 1274 01:12:07,680 --> 01:12:10,160 Speaker 1: literally when you said half nipple, grabbed my chest because 1275 01:12:10,240 --> 01:12:14,880 Speaker 1: I felt the pain of just putting that out there. Okay, 1276 01:12:14,920 --> 01:12:17,240 Speaker 1: I'll round up to one nipple, just because I really 1277 01:12:17,280 --> 01:12:19,760 Speaker 1: like Lori Petty, you know, like I remember, you know, 1278 01:12:19,800 --> 01:12:21,320 Speaker 1: like tank Girl and stuff like so I just have 1279 01:12:21,360 --> 01:12:24,080 Speaker 1: fond memories of her, and I think she tries to 1280 01:12:24,120 --> 01:12:26,800 Speaker 1: push back, even though she can't really because she's a 1281 01:12:26,800 --> 01:12:29,519 Speaker 1: fictional character and they wrote a shitty role for her. 1282 01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:32,920 Speaker 1: But I appreciate the attempts, and I appreciate her being 1283 01:12:33,160 --> 01:12:36,160 Speaker 1: good at surfing, because when you see women who are 1284 01:12:36,160 --> 01:12:39,519 Speaker 1: good at surfing. But I also grew clearly everything else. 1285 01:12:39,560 --> 01:12:42,400 Speaker 1: You all said that this is super objectifying and male 1286 01:12:42,439 --> 01:12:47,360 Speaker 1: gazey and the absence women in general in any important role. 1287 01:12:47,439 --> 01:12:52,639 Speaker 1: So you know you don't watch Point Break for the women. Yeah, 1288 01:12:52,720 --> 01:12:58,639 Speaker 1: you watch it for hacking, and specially for the scenes 1289 01:12:58,680 --> 01:13:02,000 Speaker 1: where there's hacking.

Wait, 1294 01:13:15,720 --> 01:13:18,559 Speaker 1: except you watched it in three parts, it would take 1295 01:13:18,560 --> 01:13:22,760 Speaker 1: me three days to watch it literally. Anytime.

Also, where's the chest hair in the movie? 1300 01:13:36,880 --> 01:13:40,479 Speaker 1: And everyone is a very smooth movie.
