00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,840
Speaker 1: Hello, Welcome back to movie Mike's movie podcast. I am

2
00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:04,400
Speaker 1: your host Movie Mike. Today I want to share with

3
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:08,000
Speaker 1: you my top five animated sequels in honor of Mowana

4
00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:10,880
Speaker 1: I coming out over the weekend. We'll talk about more

5
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:13,800
Speaker 1: sequels to animated movies and whether or not they lived

6
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:15,760
Speaker 1: up to the original. Maybe some of these were better

7
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,919
Speaker 1: than the original. Then we'll get into a spoiler Freemana review,

8
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,640
Speaker 1: and in the trailer park we'll talk about a new

9
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 1: video game adaptation Minecraft. I've been waiting to talk about

10
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:27,400
Speaker 1: this trailer because the first one came out and it

11
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 1: was so cringe worthy. Second trailer giving me a much

12
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 1: different perspective on what I thought about this movie. So

13
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 1: we'll get into that. Thank you for being here, Thank

14
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:37,840
Speaker 1: you for being subscribed. Shout out to the Monday Morning

15
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:40,479
Speaker 1: Movie crew. He Now, let's talk movies.

16
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 2: In a world where everyone and their mother has a podcast,

17
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 2: one man stands to infiltrate the ears of listeners like

18
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:52,479
Speaker 2: never before in a movie podcast. A man with so

19
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 2: much movie knowledge, he's basically like a walking IMTB with glasses.

20
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 1: From the Nashville Podcast. Now this Movie Mike Movie Podcast.

21
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 1: I have my top five animated sequels of all time.

22
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 1: We're going different animation studios, from Disney to Pixar, to

23
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 1: dream Works to Sony, and for this list, I decided

24
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:18,399
Speaker 1: to do direct sequels only, so I'm only talking about

25
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 1: part twos, because really, anything after a part one is

26
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:23,760
Speaker 1: a sequel, a part three is a sequel, a part

27
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: four is a sequel. But I wanted to limit the

28
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 1: discussion to a part two because there's always so much

29
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: anticipation to get to that sequel from an animated movie.

30
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 1: Because with all these they come from movies that define

31
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: a genre. They defined an entire franchise. One is so

32
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 1: definitive that you're always looking into how are you gonna

33
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: match those same expectations and how do you build upon

34
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 1: the story without just making the same movie over again,

35
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 1: which is really what any sequel has to face. So

36
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 1: we're going to get into this list. I have some

37
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: honorable mentions. You know, I love animation, so let's get

38
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 1: right into the list. At number five, I have Frozen

39
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 1: two from Disney, and I was a late comer to

40
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 1: Frozen whenever the first one came out. I was just

41
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,640
Speaker 1: checked out at Disney. For the most part, I feel

42
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: like Disney took a bit of a tumble into twenty

43
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 1: tens as far as my interest in it. The movies

44
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:17,079
Speaker 1: are really lacking imagination and if it wouldn't have been

45
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 1: for Frozen, they would have had a rough twenty tens.

46
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 1: And the reason that movie, I feel was so successful

47
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,119
Speaker 1: is because Let It Go was such a massive hit,

48
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 1: and I think I just got tired of hearing that song,

49
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 1: saw it all over YouTube. It was just the center

50
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 1: of pop culture when it came to movies, So I

51
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 1: didn't really look back into this franchise until Frozen two

52
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: came out and I was like, Okay, let me check

53
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 1: out Frozen one, go back and watch Frozen two. And

54
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,639
Speaker 1: watching those movies both together, I feel like Frozen two

55
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: is the stronger movie because I think overall it has

56
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 1: the better story. It deals with heavier themes, that shows

57
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,360
Speaker 1: the different consequences of that, and I just think it

58
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: is stronger overall because it goes into deeper the connection

59
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 1: between these characters. You get more into Elsa and Anna's background.

60
00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:03,680
Speaker 1: So Let It Go and do you want to build

61
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: a Snowman? Pave the way for Frozen two. But what

62
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 1: into the unknown hits and Frozen two that really gets me.

63
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: I love that song, and I feel like it's because

64
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 1: that song feels a little less kid friendly. It has

65
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: a really great melody, really strong harmonies, and I just

66
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 1: feel like overall it has much more of an emotional

67
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: impact on the story. So that is why I like

68
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 1: this movie actually better than Frozen one, and it is

69
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 1: a perfect sequel. First one came out in twenty thirteen.

70
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:33,640
Speaker 1: There was a lot of anticipation when this one came

71
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 1: out in twenty nineteen. We have Frozen three supposedly coming

72
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 1: out on November twenty four to twenty twenty seven, so

73
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: obviously that is gonna get massive. I think Disney is

74
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 1: just trying to bank upon all of their big properties.

75
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 1: Frozen is a juggernaut franchise. So at number five, I

76
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 1: have Frozen two from twenty nineteen. At number four from Sony,

77
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: I have Spider Man Across the Spider Verse came out

78
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three. Visually, this movie is better than

79
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 1: the first one. I think overall, Part one in this

80
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 1: series is the stronger movie because I feel like that

81
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: is a complete story. It is Miles Morales's origin story,

82
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 1: and overall you get a full character arc of what

83
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: it is to be Spider Man, and that movie felt

84
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: so refreshing, It was fun, no holds barred when it

85
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 1: came to what could be a Spider Man movie. So

86
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,720
Speaker 1: I think that is why that movie was so novel

87
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 1: and so inventive that in a franchise with a character

88
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 1: that we've seen so many iterations from w. Maguire Andrew Garfield,

89
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:38,119
Speaker 1: Tom Holland, the question was how do you reinvent that again?

90
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,560
Speaker 1: And they completely nailed it in that first movie, So

91
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,600
Speaker 1: that movie can hold its own and stand on its

92
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,560
Speaker 1: own without any help of any other Spider Man movie.

93
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: I think that is why it is a better movie. However,

94
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: Part two is so much better visually and really ramps

95
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,799
Speaker 1: up the character in the third act of this movie.

96
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: Problem is it is split into two, so if I

97
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: were gonna sit down and just watch one movie, it

98
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,240
Speaker 1: would be Part one. But Part two is so strong

99
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 1: and feels like such a great roller coaster. And overall

100
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,280
Speaker 1: I have become so invested in the miles of Spider

101
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 1: Gwin love story. Their entire relationship between the first and

102
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 1: the second movie has me captivated more than any other

103
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: Spider Man loves story and above all the things that

104
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 1: I want to see play out and get wrapped up

105
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 1: from part one. That is really what I cannot wait

106
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,120
Speaker 1: to see, because I think the great thing about Spider

107
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 1: Man movies are these love stories. This will they won't

108
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,719
Speaker 1: they between all of the love interests, the really sad

109
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 1: things that have happened to Mary, Jane and Gwen over

110
00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 1: the years. So I don't know what direction they are

111
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,479
Speaker 1: going to go in, but I have to imagine it

112
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: isn't going to end the way we all want it

113
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: to based on across the Spider Verse Part one. This

114
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 1: movie also did a really great job introducing new characters

115
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 1: from Spider Punk to my now new favorite Spider Man

116
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 1: twenty ninety nine, which I wasn't that familiar with going

117
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,839
Speaker 1: into this movie, but now I love The character has

118
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 1: a fantastic suit. I've invested some time in the comic

119
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 1: books getting to know more about the origin story of

120
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 1: Miguel O'Hara, so it has been great for me as

121
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,039
Speaker 1: a new fan, but I think people who have been

122
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,760
Speaker 1: familiar with this character now for a very long time

123
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,800
Speaker 1: since the nineties has to be really cool and what

124
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 1: an investment to finally see this character come to life

125
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 1: in a really great way and overall last year it

126
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 1: was one of my favorite in theater experiences. And I

127
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 1: also love the fact that Miles Morales aged from part

128
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 1: one to Part two. I think that is something that

129
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 1: should be explored more in animation, that you actually grow

130
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 1: in age with the character, much like you would with

131
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 1: the real actor, because sometimes animated movies are kind of

132
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,280
Speaker 1: frozen in time. I get that you want to have

133
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 1: animated characters look the same all throughout the movies because

134
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,840
Speaker 1: you can keep making these forever and ever. So I

135
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 1: think it's a very interesting kind of situation that this

136
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 1: movie is gonna paint itself into, because eventually you gotta

137
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 1: get older and older and older. So even though I

138
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,599
Speaker 1: think Part one is better than Part two, it is

139
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,839
Speaker 1: still a fantastic sequel, and that is why it is

140
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: that number four on my top five animated sequels. At

141
00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 1: number three from two thousand and four from DreamWorks, it

142
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 1: is Shrek two. Some people believe that Shrek two is

143
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 1: the superior Shrek movie. There are some arguments to that story. Again,

144
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna hold these all to a very high standard,

145
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 1: and they have made my list for a reason, but

146
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 1: I also feel the need in some of these to

147
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 1: defend part one versus Part two. Shrek two has a

148
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 1: great villain. You have the Fairy Godmother, arguably one of

149
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 1: the best villains in animation overall. When you look at

150
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,119
Speaker 1: the numbers, Shrek two was a bigger commercial success, making

151
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 1: one billion dollars worldwide, which is wild to me. How

152
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 1: much of a choke hold the Shrek franchise had to

153
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 1: sell in And it was because that first one was

154
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 1: so successful. You had that anticipation going into this one.

155
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 1: That is why this one was one of the most

156
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 1: successful movies of the two thousands and made more money

157
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 1: than any movie in this franchise. It was inevitable with

158
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 1: all the DVD sales from Shrek one, Shrek two was

159
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,560
Speaker 1: a guaranteed hit. They just had to get it out there.

160
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 1: And I think why people enjoy Shrek two more is

161
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 1: because it leans more into the comedy, making fun of

162
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 1: fairy tales. It gets a little bit more whimsical. But

163
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 1: what I enjoyed more about Shrek one is the way

164
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 1: that the character was actually portrayed as being an ogre.

165
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: I think that is what truly defines the character, and

166
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,719
Speaker 1: I get that Shrek becomes a little bit softer as

167
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 1: the movies go on and on, he becomes a little

168
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:40,080
Speaker 1: bit more human. He gets married and Fiona, much like

169
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,280
Speaker 1: I feel like in my relationship, Kelsey has made me better.

170
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 1: Fiona makes him better, makes him a more rounded out human.

171
00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 1: He has a little bit more of a dilemma that

172
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:52,080
Speaker 1: goes into effect in Shrek two. But in Shrek one,

173
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: I like Shrek being an ogre. I like how he

174
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 1: just wants to stick to his swamp and hang out there.

175
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,120
Speaker 1: He gets annoyed by Don. He doesn't want to go

176
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 1: on this quest. He hates everybody that he encounters because

177
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 1: ultimately he just wants to be chilling at his home

178
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 1: and not be bothered. And that is the side of

179
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 1: Shrek I enjoy more. But again, I don't think it

180
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 1: is a quality issue here that I'm fighting for. It

181
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 1: is merely a preference issue. One and two are both great.

182
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: I think overall story wise, two is probably stronger, but

183
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:27,080
Speaker 1: one will always be my favorite. Nonetheless, it is really

184
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 1: hard to make an animated sequel be as impactful as

185
00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 1: the first one, and Shrek two did that, And I

186
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:38,319
Speaker 1: think overall DreamWorks is really good at creating animated franchises

187
00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 1: and having strong part twos look at their history Kung

188
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,120
Speaker 1: Fu Panda Tu, How To Train Your Dragon to Puss

189
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:49,320
Speaker 1: in Boots two DreamWorks, I feel is an underrated animation studio.

190
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,960
Speaker 1: I feel like overall they are better at building franchises

191
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 1: over Disney and over Pixar. And we also have Strik

192
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:58,520
Speaker 1: five to look forward to supposedly coming out in summer

193
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 1: twenty twenty six at number three. I have Shrek two

194
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 1: from two thousand and four at number two from Pixar

195
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 1: in nineteen ninety nine, I have Toy Story two. Toy

196
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 1: Story two is really strong. One is always going to

197
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: be my favorite, Part three is always going to be

198
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 1: my second favorite, and Part two will always be in

199
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 1: that number three slot. But again, I think overall, Toy

200
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,320
Speaker 1: Story is the best Pixar franchise of all time. Was

201
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,760
Speaker 1: their first computer generated movie, and I think in that

202
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:33,319
Speaker 1: first one, it was really them realizing can this even

203
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 1: be possible? Can you make an entire movie from computer

204
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 1: generated animation? And that movie proved that. But I think

205
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,439
Speaker 1: a lot of the hurdles that they had to overcome

206
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: and making that movie was just dealing with the technology.

207
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: If you go back and rewatch the original version of

208
00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 1: that which now they have remastered on Disney Plus, so

209
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,839
Speaker 1: it looks way better if you haven't seen it in

210
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,000
Speaker 1: a while and you go rewatch Toy Story one, it

211
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: looks so much better. Reid watched it maybe a couple

212
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,120
Speaker 1: of years ago, and it felt like I was rewatching

213
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,440
Speaker 1: it again for the first time because all the colors

214
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 1: were more vibrant. It felt a little bit more smooth.

215
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 1: If you go back and actually rewatch the first one, Oh,

216
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 1: it looks so data now because it was so new.

217
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,280
Speaker 1: It almost looked like you were watching a PlayStation one

218
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 1: game take place on screen. But at the time it

219
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,120
Speaker 1: was so innovative. But I think a lot of those

220
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 1: hurdles came with just making sure that all the animation

221
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 1: worked and using that to tell the story. If you

222
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:32,679
Speaker 1: look at Toy Story one versus Toy Story four, it

223
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,760
Speaker 1: looks like night and day almost just looking at examples,

224
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,440
Speaker 1: like the dog in the first one, it looks computer generated,

225
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 1: but you can look at an image of a cat

226
00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 1: from Toy Story four and it looks real. So there

227
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 1: have been major improvements from one to four, but there

228
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,719
Speaker 1: were also major improvements from one to two. I think

229
00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: where two really shines is the writing was so much better.

230
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,480
Speaker 1: And funnier because it was almost as if they were like, Okay,

231
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,079
Speaker 1: we got the animation down, now how do we build

232
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:03,400
Speaker 1: upon this story? And Toy Story two introduces two characters

233
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 1: now that you can't look at Toy Story and not

234
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,839
Speaker 1: think about Jesse and think about Bullseye. And it was

235
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,840
Speaker 1: the introduction of those characters that brought almost a more

236
00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 1: adult theme to the story because the first one is

237
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 1: really just about the toys and learning about Oh, these

238
00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,200
Speaker 1: toys have feelings and they want to be played with

239
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,600
Speaker 1: and they're worried about being forgotten. It's really all about

240
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 1: Woody and his abandonment issues. Whenever buzz light Year comes

241
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 1: around starts taking some of the shine away from him,

242
00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:32,240
Speaker 1: all the posters of wood He come down and the

243
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 1: buzz light Year posters go up. But then in part two,

244
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 1: the themes just kind of widen a little bit and

245
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,880
Speaker 1: there is much more on the line and Toy Story

246
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:45,920
Speaker 1: two where you start thinking more about all of these characters' motivations,

247
00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 1: their emotional struggles. Woody becomes a way more complex character

248
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 1: as he learns about the history of him and thinking, oh,

249
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 1: there are people out there who would actually want to

250
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 1: see me and I can live on forever in this museum.

251
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 1: Start struggling with this internal conflict of leaving Andy behind

252
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 1: and thinking, well, and he's been there since the beginning.

253
00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,280
Speaker 1: Jesse's like, yo, he's gonna leave you anyway, look what

254
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 1: my owner did to me. And then you have the

255
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 1: song when She Loved Me That ooh, I think it

256
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 1: rivals as the best song in the Toy Story franchise.

257
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,559
Speaker 1: Obviously You've Got a Friend in Me is the theme song,

258
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,280
Speaker 1: and I feel like you can't really put that song

259
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:25,840
Speaker 1: in the same conversation. So if it was second to

260
00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:27,839
Speaker 1: one song, it would be that one, because that is

261
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:29,840
Speaker 1: the song you think about when you think about Toy Story.

262
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 1: But When She Loved Me hits you feel an emotional

263
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:35,640
Speaker 1: connection that you haven't really felt before in an animated

264
00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:39,520
Speaker 1: movie paired with music, because in part one, when you

265
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 1: kind of feel that is whenever they play strange things.

266
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,439
Speaker 1: And like I was talking about earlier, when Woody sees

267
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 1: all of his posters going down and the buzz light

268
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:49,560
Speaker 1: your stuff going up, that hits too. I feel like

269
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,680
Speaker 1: that hits me more than an adult now thinking about

270
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 1: being replaced. But that has a little bit more of

271
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,120
Speaker 1: a comedic tone. When when she loved Me hits. It's like,

272
00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 1: oh my gosh. You see her from being the center

273
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 1: of a tension in this kid's world and then being

274
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:04,599
Speaker 1: discarded on the side of the road. Why would you

275
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:06,720
Speaker 1: leave toys on the side of the road anyway, How

276
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 1: sad was that? And the great thing about Toy Story

277
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 1: two is it built upon the first one and stay

278
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,080
Speaker 1: true to the heart of the film, focusing on some

279
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:19,560
Speaker 1: of these same themes but widening them up. Toy Story

280
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:23,359
Speaker 1: Two became the highest grossing Disney sequel of the nineties,

281
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:27,600
Speaker 1: and this was before Disney acquired Pixar. But I feel

282
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 1: like it set the blueprint for the decade to come

283
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 1: of really taking into consideration putting a lot of money

284
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:39,760
Speaker 1: and promotion and integrity behind sequels. Because Disney in the

285
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,920
Speaker 1: decade before this, the way they would put their sequels

286
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 1: out is it would be straight to video, and you'd

287
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 1: have The Lion King come out in ninety four, and

288
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:51,480
Speaker 1: then you have Lion King Part two, Simba's Pride. There's

289
00:14:51,520 --> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 1: like a ladd intwo. There's all these sequels that don't

290
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 1: really have the same weight as the original. It's just

291
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,080
Speaker 1: kind of seen as I let's try to make some

292
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 1: more money off of this. So even though Disney's involvement

293
00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 1: wasn't with Pixar at this time, I feel like with

294
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 1: this movie being so successful, it made Pixar and later

295
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 1: Disney realize, hey, we should really spend more time and

296
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 1: effort into making sequels and building franchises instead of just

297
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 1: doing a one and done, because there are worlds to

298
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 1: create if there's a story there to be told. Before

299
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 1: I get to number one, I do have a lot

300
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:27,000
Speaker 1: of honorable mentions. I wanted to mention Illumination as a

301
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:30,080
Speaker 1: whole because I think that studio is doing really great

302
00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 1: work and I still think their best is yet to come,

303
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 1: even though they've been crushing it for a long time

304
00:15:35,080 --> 00:15:37,920
Speaker 1: with all the Despicable Me movies, I feel like overall

305
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 1: the Menion movies have been really strong. I feel like

306
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,560
Speaker 1: once they start leaning more into Nintendo with the success

307
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 1: of Super Mario, that that is really good to pop

308
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 1: off for them. But I would put on this list

309
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 1: Despicable Me Too, which is now one of the most

310
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:56,520
Speaker 1: profitable animated franchises of all time, and that franchise does

311
00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 1: a really good job of building that world. I feel

312
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 1: like with Despicable me for maybe they're kind of struggling

313
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 1: right now to decide where they want to take that

314
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 1: because one, two, and three really built upon that story. Oh,

315
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 1: it's just really hard to make a four. As hard

316
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 1: as it is to make a good two, it is

317
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 1: almost impossible to make a great four in an animated franchise.

318
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 1: And I think where they have seen some success is

319
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 1: with the spinoff movies. And my also honorable mention is

320
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 1: Minions The Rise of Grew, which is the prequel to

321
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 1: the entire story, And I think why those movies are

322
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:30,600
Speaker 1: so fun because it gives the audience what they really want,

323
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 1: more Minions all the time. I think overall all the

324
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 1: Minions movies have been really strong, the first one coming

325
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 1: out in twenty fifteen, then following it up with a

326
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 1: sequel to that movie in twenty twenty two. So that's

327
00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 1: why I put this one as an honorable mention. Another

328
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,360
Speaker 1: honorable mention I have that was teetering on making it

329
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,200
Speaker 1: in at number five was Ralph Breaks the Internet from

330
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 1: Disney in twenty eighteen. I think, overall record Ralph movies

331
00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 1: are really great. That first one was just such a

332
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 1: big world that he created. What I love about recket

333
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 1: Ralph is how misunderstood of a character he is. He's

334
00:17:02,840 --> 00:17:04,840
Speaker 1: always seen as the villain, He's always seen as the

335
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,639
Speaker 1: bad guy, and all he wants to do is become

336
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 1: a hero. You also have Penelope who kind of in

337
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 1: the same boat as him. In the first one, it's

338
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 1: all about the arcade style video games, and then the

339
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,159
Speaker 1: second one he gets thrown into the Internet, which I

340
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 1: thought was also a lot of fun. But I feel overall,

341
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 1: when it comes to Disney movies, there are so many

342
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:26,679
Speaker 1: other big movies that I feel this one gets forgotten

343
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:28,880
Speaker 1: about a lot. So I wanted to include Wrecket Ralph

344
00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,360
Speaker 1: and the sequel, Ralph Breaks the Internet, because I would

345
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,159
Speaker 1: like to see a part three. Another honorable mention is

346
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 1: Finding Dory from Pixar in twenty sixteen, which is almost

347
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: essentially the story of the first one. I think overall

348
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 1: it is a solid movie, but it's a little bit forgettable.

349
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:46,879
Speaker 1: That's why I wasn't fully comfortable putting it in my

350
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,840
Speaker 1: top five. I remember watching it in theaters and thinking, oh,

351
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,440
Speaker 1: that was a really fun time, but it's not really one.

352
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,439
Speaker 1: I go back and rewatch a whole lot because the

353
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 1: first one is so strong and so iconic. I think

354
00:17:57,840 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 1: the fact that they probably waited a little bit too

355
00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,639
Speaker 1: long to make this sequel, that it didn't quite have

356
00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,720
Speaker 1: that same momentum and that same lasting ability that the

357
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 1: first one did. And my final honorable mention is The

358
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,440
Speaker 1: Rescuers down Under. As a kid, I didn't realize that

359
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,119
Speaker 1: this was a Part two because I only had this

360
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,800
Speaker 1: VHS and I rewatched this movie a lot as a

361
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 1: kid has one of the wildest opening scenes for an

362
00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,919
Speaker 1: animated movie meant for kids that it was just like,

363
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 1: what is happening here? Why are all these movies teaching

364
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,320
Speaker 1: me about death? So early on? You have John Candy

365
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,400
Speaker 1: as Wilbur and I will always love this movie more

366
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 1: than Part one, But at number one, what I believe

367
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 1: is the best animated sequel, the best Part two of

368
00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 1: all time actually came out this year in twenty twenty four.

369
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 1: It is Inside Out Too, from Pixar. Now. The first

370
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:49,760
Speaker 1: one was truly groundbreaking, and that movie is a five

371
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 1: out of five at the top of the list, and

372
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,120
Speaker 1: it was hard for me to imagine how they were

373
00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:58,359
Speaker 1: going to expand upon this story without making the same

374
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 1: movie again and again, because is dealing with Riley's emotions,

375
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,000
Speaker 1: and what if your emotions had emotions, which is like

376
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 1: inception when it comes to Pixar, because Pixar is really

377
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 1: famous for giving things human qualities. What if your car

378
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 1: had feelings? What if your toys had feelings? What if

379
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,000
Speaker 1: your feelings had feelings? Hear me out here. I didn't

380
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 1: know if it was gonna work whenever I saw Inside Out,

381
00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:22,920
Speaker 1: but man, they proved me wrong. There are some really

382
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 1: emotional hits in that movie that are pretty long standing

383
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 1: and really defining moments in cinema, especially when it comes

384
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,120
Speaker 1: to animation. But what I love about Inside Out Too

385
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,119
Speaker 1: is you can watch it without seeing part one, and

386
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,680
Speaker 1: I think you would even benefit a little without knowing

387
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 1: what happens in part one, because it would feel a

388
00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:44,399
Speaker 1: little bit more novel. That is the only reason that

389
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,639
Speaker 1: I think Inside Out two isn't better than part one

390
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:52,880
Speaker 1: is because the overall concept just isn't new in this sequel.

391
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,880
Speaker 1: But I think on an emotional level, and maybe more

392
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,679
Speaker 1: so because I'm an adult, I felt like the story

393
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:03,000
Speaker 1: and in Side Out Too was more complex and spoke

394
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:07,359
Speaker 1: more to me. The introduction of anxiety and embarrassment and

395
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 1: all these teenage feelings. I feel overall might go over

396
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:14,160
Speaker 1: some young kids' heads, but I think to somebody who

397
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 1: is probably going through this, and I always try to

398
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,960
Speaker 1: think like that of putting myself in the age that

399
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: this is targeted to, and how I would feel if

400
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:24,639
Speaker 1: this movie came out when I was at age, and

401
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:26,920
Speaker 1: this would have been my favorite movie. I think even

402
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 1: now as an adult, it was me needing to relearn

403
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,000
Speaker 1: some of these things and see these things played out

404
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,800
Speaker 1: and inside out too. That was kind of a refresher

405
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,719
Speaker 1: for me. And I think it's great when animated movies

406
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 1: really push those boundaries of how complex can you make

407
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,720
Speaker 1: these characters, how many different emotions can you deal with?

408
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:47,719
Speaker 1: Before you cross that line and go a little bit

409
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:50,879
Speaker 1: over everybody's head. But I love that this movie doesn't

410
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:54,640
Speaker 1: downplay it to its audience. It's hey, these are these feelings,

411
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 1: this is what anxiety makes to do. You've probably felt

412
00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,320
Speaker 1: this and didn't know even how to express that's what

413
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 1: you were feeling. But this movie does that. It hits

414
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,680
Speaker 1: you on a level that you're not really expecting these

415
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 1: cute animated characters to make you feel. I think it

416
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 1: is the best Pixar sequel ever made. They have done

417
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:15,240
Speaker 1: twenty four feature films in nine sequels, so really there

418
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:18,920
Speaker 1: aren't that many Pixar sequels, and out of any sequel,

419
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 1: this one does the best upon building on the original

420
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 1: movie to get you to that next level. So if

421
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:27,560
Speaker 1: they're gonna make Inside Out three, which I think there

422
00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:30,480
Speaker 1: are still potential to make a three, you kind of

423
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 1: have to decide how old you want to make rally

424
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 1: in that one, because you go past high school and

425
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 1: into college and it becomes an entirely different franchise. But

426
00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 1: at number one, I have as the best animated sequel

427
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 1: Inside Out to Now, well Muwana end up making this list.

428
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:48,399
Speaker 1: We'll talk about that next. I'll give you my spoiler

429
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,119
Speaker 1: free review. Then in the trailer park we'll talk about

430
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,439
Speaker 1: Minecraft and how the creator of this video game is

431
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:59,160
Speaker 1: actually a billionaire. Let's get into it now. A spoiler

432
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 1: free review of Mowana too. The question I want to

433
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,360
Speaker 1: answer by the end of this review is was it

434
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,320
Speaker 1: even necessary? And yes, I know, I'm an adult man

435
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,040
Speaker 1: talking about a movie primarily meant for kids, but it's

436
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,159
Speaker 1: a Disney movie. It is important, So we're here to

437
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:15,919
Speaker 1: talk about it. Pretty much. What this movie is about.

438
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,320
Speaker 1: I hate to say it it's basically the same thing

439
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:21,679
Speaker 1: as the first one. When it comes to the plotline,

440
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:26,240
Speaker 1: Molana goes out on another big adventure. This one is

441
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 1: going to test her levels of being a leader now,

442
00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:32,360
Speaker 1: somebody now who can speak and communicate with the ocean

443
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 1: to a whole new level. So really, I would say,

444
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:40,119
Speaker 1: if you didn't watch the first one, it's almost like

445
00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:43,439
Speaker 1: watching it again, and that kind of sucks. And I

446
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:47,440
Speaker 1: know to the younger audience that's probably not really going

447
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:50,679
Speaker 1: to matter. The fact that this movie pretty much follows

448
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 1: the exact same beats as Mowana one. I don't think

449
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 1: a kid is going to care about that. But for me,

450
00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:59,200
Speaker 1: as an adult, I just wanted something a little bit

451
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:01,360
Speaker 1: more so to answer my question early on, I don't

452
00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 1: really think this sequel was necessary. And when it comes

453
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: to Disney's plan of action with their movies on whether

454
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,080
Speaker 1: they put them in theaters or whether they put them

455
00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:14,840
Speaker 1: on streaming, I feel like this one was kind of

456
00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 1: rushed together and slapped on and put out in the theaters.

457
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,920
Speaker 1: Because this one kind of came out out a knower

458
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,120
Speaker 1: saying that, hey, we're gonna put out a new Muana

459
00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:26,240
Speaker 1: movie this year. We're also working on the live action

460
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:29,080
Speaker 1: remake of the first one, it kind of feels like

461
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:32,919
Speaker 1: they're just having a cash grab on Mawana as a whole.

462
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,919
Speaker 1: And I feel like the first one was really important

463
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,879
Speaker 1: for portraying the character in a full length movie that

464
00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 1: we haven't really seen before in Disney. I don't want

465
00:23:42,320 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 1: to stray away from that and the importance of that,

466
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,440
Speaker 1: because I think that representation is significant when it comes

467
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,399
Speaker 1: to the story of mi Wana, the people that represents,

468
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 1: the music, the way they speak. I love all of that.

469
00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,960
Speaker 1: But when it comes to what I look for in sequels,

470
00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,199
Speaker 1: especially in animated sequels that we've been talking about this

471
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:03,239
Speaker 1: entire episode, is it building upon the first one and

472
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,199
Speaker 1: taking your character to another level or does it just

473
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,360
Speaker 1: feel like, hey, remember what worked in that first one,

474
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,399
Speaker 1: Let's do that entire thing again and see if we

475
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:11,919
Speaker 1: can make some money off this thing. And that is

476
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 1: what this movie felt like to me. To me, I

477
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 1: felt Disney had this decision to make do we want

478
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,240
Speaker 1: to put this movie out in theaters? Do we want

479
00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 1: to put it on Disney Plus? But given the fact

480
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,200
Speaker 1: that it is a big property, you have the Rock

481
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 1: one of the biggest actors in the world right now,

482
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,080
Speaker 1: probably of the last five years, maybe even the last

483
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 1: ten years. You're gonna put out in theaters and you're

484
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,399
Speaker 1: probably gonna make a lot of money, and looking at

485
00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,320
Speaker 1: the box office umber from opening weekend, it is generating

486
00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:38,919
Speaker 1: a lot of revenue. I do think it is going

487
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 1: to have a pretty big dip, maybe not too significant,

488
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:43,919
Speaker 1: because it is a family friendly movie. It is a

489
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:47,600
Speaker 1: Disney movie out during the holidays right now, where every

490
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 1: single movie we've gone to see in the last week

491
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 1: has been packed. So I think the demand is still

492
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 1: going to be there, and I think when it comes

493
00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:58,119
Speaker 1: to word of mouth for an animated movie, it doesn't

494
00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:00,520
Speaker 1: really carry that same weight because I think families are

495
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,520
Speaker 1: just gonna go see this regardless. But for me, as

496
00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,400
Speaker 1: the adult Disney fan, I don't call myself a Disney adult.

497
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:08,159
Speaker 1: I don't think I'm on that level. If that is

498
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:10,399
Speaker 1: your thing, hey, whatever makes you happy. But I'm not

499
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 1: super obsessed with the first one. Whenever I saw Mowana

500
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 1: one in theaters back in twenty sixteen, I didn't like

501
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,879
Speaker 1: it upon first watch. I didn't really get the flow

502
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 1: of the movie and the story. It wasn't really until

503
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,440
Speaker 1: I rewatched that movie and it hit a second time,

504
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 1: and I became a little bit more of a lin

505
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 1: Manuel Miranda fan that I realized how good that first

506
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:35,160
Speaker 1: one actually is. And my other main problem I had

507
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,239
Speaker 1: with this movie not just that the story was very

508
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 1: repetitive from the first one. There's no real struggle. It

509
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 1: kind of feels like the villain was a rehashed version

510
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:48,320
Speaker 1: of the villain from the first movie. It was the music.

511
00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:52,199
Speaker 1: The music was so important to Mowana one, really so

512
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:55,159
Speaker 1: important in any Disney movie right now. You need that

513
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,560
Speaker 1: one big song and Mawana you had that song how

514
00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 1: Far I'll Go, which is a big anthem from that movie.

515
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:04,040
Speaker 1: It is the character defining song of Mowana. That is

516
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:08,640
Speaker 1: your hit from that Every Disney musical movie needs that

517
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:12,159
Speaker 1: song to really resonate with kids, to really drive this

518
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:13,840
Speaker 1: to be a movie that a kid is going to

519
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 1: leave the theater and immediately want to go watch it

520
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,639
Speaker 1: on Disney Plus, even though it isn't available yet. You

521
00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 1: need that song to define your movie. Mawana, too did

522
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:24,400
Speaker 1: not have that song. It didn't have how Far I'll Go.

523
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,679
Speaker 1: It didn't have a year Welcome, which is another character

524
00:26:27,760 --> 00:26:30,479
Speaker 1: defining song from Maui. It didn't even have the shiny

525
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 1: Thing song from one of the villains in the first movie.

526
00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 1: There were no memorable songs whatsoever in Mowana Too. And

527
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,200
Speaker 1: what I believe it comes down to is that Lynn

528
00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 1: Manuel Miranda was not a part of this movie. He

529
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:46,200
Speaker 1: did not write the songs. You have two new female

530
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:48,879
Speaker 1: writers who did all the music, and they were really

531
00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:52,280
Speaker 1: just given guidance from Lynn Manuel Miranda before they started

532
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 1: making the music for this movie. He sat down with

533
00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 1: them and gave them the blueprint of what he did

534
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,679
Speaker 1: on the first one and what worked in that movie.

535
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,159
Speaker 1: And then they said that he was just a phone

536
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:04,439
Speaker 1: call or FaceTime away. So maybe they used him with

537
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:07,200
Speaker 1: some guidance here and there, but you really felt his

538
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 1: presence missing in these songs because they lacked originality, and

539
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,520
Speaker 1: it felt like they were given the assignment of, hey,

540
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 1: do what we did in the first movie, channel your

541
00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 1: best lin Manuel Miranda and create your own songs, but

542
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,280
Speaker 1: you have to fit in this box. And what happens

543
00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:25,800
Speaker 1: when you do that when it comes to music, is

544
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,679
Speaker 1: you lose that creativity because you're just trying to do

545
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:32,159
Speaker 1: an impression. You're trying to cover the songs from the

546
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,680
Speaker 1: first one and make them your own, but you don't

547
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:38,000
Speaker 1: have that same artist doing it, and you don't have

548
00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:41,320
Speaker 1: that originality. Because if Lynn Manuel Miranda was given this

549
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:44,439
Speaker 1: movie and said, hey, let's see what you can do

550
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,879
Speaker 1: here with all these new characters, with this new storyline,

551
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 1: what songs can you create? He's not gonna do exactly

552
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,440
Speaker 1: what he did in the first one. He's gonna experiment

553
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 1: and do different things. And that is where you get

554
00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:57,879
Speaker 1: the better songs, not trying to do an impression of

555
00:27:57,920 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 1: what you did in the first one, but trying to

556
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 1: build upon it and create new songs. And you see

557
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 1: this happening in movies all the time. Whenever the Batman

558
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,639
Speaker 1: movies lost Danny Elfman and they had to bring in

559
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:11,479
Speaker 1: a new composer and say, hey, do what Danny Elfman

560
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,920
Speaker 1: did and create these themes. You can't do it because

561
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,159
Speaker 1: you're trying to do an impression of somebody. You're not

562
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 1: being original, and you're really not growing the music in

563
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:23,000
Speaker 1: any way. So I really felt out of everything that

564
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 1: was really what was lacking in this movie that that

565
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,159
Speaker 1: is the one factor I could see bleeding out to

566
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 1: the younger audience of it not being as memorable and

567
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:35,640
Speaker 1: it not being their favorite because these songs aren't really

568
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 1: going to stick in your head. I wasn't leaving the

569
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:39,560
Speaker 1: theater thinking, oh, I still had that song stick in

570
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:42,720
Speaker 1: my head. Darn that Mawana too. I really could not

571
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 1: name you the melodies from any of those songs because

572
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 1: it felt like all the lyrics to the songs were

573
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 1: really saying the same thing over and over again. Where

574
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 1: the message was there of like you can really do

575
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 1: things if you put your mind to it, you can

576
00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 1: go and be really strong, but it just felt like

577
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:03,040
Speaker 1: every song was saying that over and over again, and

578
00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 1: there weren't any defining songs to these new characters, which

579
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,400
Speaker 1: made all the characters really forgettable. They tried to bring

580
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 1: in new friends, they brought back the old friends, but

581
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,480
Speaker 1: all those new friends, much like the songs, you don't

582
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 1: really see anything from them and you forget them by

583
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,560
Speaker 1: the end of the movie. The improvements I do think

584
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 1: they made was the animation style, and where this movie

585
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:25,760
Speaker 1: looked the best was in the nighttime animation scenes. I

586
00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,880
Speaker 1: think on the water at night there was a level

587
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 1: of depth and the shading and the overall flow of

588
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,760
Speaker 1: these characters. I think that is where this movie really shined,

589
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 1: and those action sequences, especially in that third act, So

590
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 1: maybe the story was kind of the same thing over

591
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,440
Speaker 1: and over again, the music which kind of just slapped together,

592
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 1: but the animation really I thought was improved from the

593
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:48,840
Speaker 1: first one, so I think at least Disney is getting

594
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 1: that right, because even the comedy wasn't anything new. It

595
00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 1: was really just rehashing some of the jokes from the

596
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:55,800
Speaker 1: first one, which again I don't think kids are really

597
00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 1: going to care about that, and the theater people were

598
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 1: still laughing as this movie went along. But I think

599
00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 1: the main thing was we didn't really see a whole

600
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,640
Speaker 1: lot of development from the character of Moljana from one

601
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 1: to two, because she went through that entire journey in one,

602
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:12,080
Speaker 1: and at the start of this movie it almost felt

603
00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 1: like she was back at that point after going through

604
00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 1: all those things and finding out all these things about

605
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:20,040
Speaker 1: herself and being this really strong character. By the end

606
00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,920
Speaker 1: of one, it almost like she regressed a little bit

607
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:26,520
Speaker 1: and was learning all over again. Instead, I would have

608
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,440
Speaker 1: liked to have seen her shine more. At the beginning

609
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 1: of this movie, he has still been given a test

610
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 1: that she had to overcome and do. What she set

611
00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 1: out to do was find this island and connect her

612
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 1: people with the rest of the world. That still could

613
00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:42,000
Speaker 1: have been a test, but I would have liked to

614
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 1: see her be kind of a stronger leader in the

615
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 1: beginning because I think that would have been more impactful

616
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 1: to kids of seeing like, oh, she learned something from

617
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 1: the first one. She has these leadership skills now that

618
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:55,440
Speaker 1: she has to hone in and the struggles of being

619
00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:58,360
Speaker 1: the leader where even though you are strong and have

620
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:01,800
Speaker 1: proven yourself, how you kind of advance on that. Instead

621
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 1: it was kind of just her from the beginning again

622
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,320
Speaker 1: all over and then trying to do what she did

623
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 1: in the first one. So I think you have to

624
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 1: give the kids like a stronger role model at the

625
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 1: beginning and show what comes with even though you have

626
00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 1: proven yourself how you have to do it again. The

627
00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 1: other interesting thing about Disney movies now is I think

628
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 1: they want to bring this incentive for people to see

629
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:27,080
Speaker 1: it in theaters to maximize profits. It's putting butts in

630
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,680
Speaker 1: the seats, but I almost feel like we're at a

631
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:33,320
Speaker 1: point now a technology. And I got this idea because

632
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 1: as the movie was wrapping up, there was a kid

633
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 1: sitting next to us with her dad and said, Hey,

634
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,240
Speaker 1: can we watch this at home now, And I think

635
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 1: that is the mentality that kids have now because you

636
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:47,760
Speaker 1: can so easily watch everything on your phone, your tablet,

637
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:52,400
Speaker 1: on Disney Plus, and you don't really have that separation

638
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 1: of wait, I can watch this in theaters, but I

639
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 1: can't watch it at home now. I almost feel like Disney,

640
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,200
Speaker 1: which I feel like this is probably an expensive thing

641
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 1: for them to do, or maybe they wouldn't make a

642
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:05,720
Speaker 1: whole lot of money off of this. But I feel

643
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 1: like there was always this kind of idea that people

644
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:12,200
Speaker 1: had of back when you would go to concerts and

645
00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 1: you'd go see a band, and then after you see

646
00:32:14,600 --> 00:32:17,000
Speaker 1: that band, if you enjoyed them, you could buy to

647
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 1: see thee at the end of the concert and then

648
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 1: listen to it because they're out promoting an album. You

649
00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:23,040
Speaker 1: enjoyed the band, Now I want to listen to the

650
00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 1: album at home. I feel like there was a point

651
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:27,760
Speaker 1: where people wanted to do that with movies, of Hey,

652
00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 1: you go see a movie in theaters, if you enjoyed it,

653
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:32,200
Speaker 1: you could buy it in the lobby and their way

654
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 1: you could that way you could watch it at home.

655
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,120
Speaker 1: I feel like it should be that kind of incentive

656
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,880
Speaker 1: for people to go see a movie in theaters, and

657
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 1: maybe it's as easy as hey, if you go watch

658
00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:44,440
Speaker 1: Malana Iu in theaters, we'll give you this code where

659
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 1: you can go plug it into Disney Plus and then

660
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 1: watch it at home for maybe a week. You get

661
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:51,280
Speaker 1: early access to it because it's going to be all

662
00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:54,920
Speaker 1: Disney Plus eventually, probably in three or four months, depending

663
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:57,800
Speaker 1: on how well this does in its box office run.

664
00:32:58,280 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 1: But it could be as easy as like a Q.

665
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 1: You upload your ticket that you paid for either on

666
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,200
Speaker 1: your app or if you actually buy it at the theater,

667
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,680
Speaker 1: and you're given a code that only works on your

668
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:10,560
Speaker 1: Disney Plus at home, like a one time code. You're

669
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 1: not sharing it with everybody, and that way it gives

670
00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:16,040
Speaker 1: people an in send them to go and see it

671
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 1: in theaters, because then you can take it home and

672
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 1: watch it again. And I think that's important for kids

673
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 1: who want to rewatch it immediately. Maybe some parents don't

674
00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:27,080
Speaker 1: want that because for a movie like this, they get

675
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 1: tired of it by the end of it, of it

676
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,320
Speaker 1: just being on repeat on Disney Plus over and over again.

677
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:35,400
Speaker 1: But I think when you're trying to give people a

678
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:37,440
Speaker 1: reason to go to the theater, you have to give

679
00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:41,040
Speaker 1: them some kind of incentive that isn't just spending more money. So, yeah,

680
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:42,840
Speaker 1: you can go to the theater to get the exclusive

681
00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:44,960
Speaker 1: popcorn bucket, but I want something I can get for

682
00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 1: free and take home. Give me a reason to do that.

683
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 1: So that's just an idea I had because I too,

684
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 1: sometimes would like to rewatch a movie instantly when I

685
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:57,479
Speaker 1: get home to catch some things I missed, and then

686
00:33:57,520 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 1: sometimes by the time it is on a streaming service,

687
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:01,440
Speaker 1: I don't care to watch it again. So maybe Disney

688
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 1: can make something like that happen, but probably won't because

689
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 1: it probably doesn't make them a whole lot of money.

690
00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:08,359
Speaker 1: It's only gonna make us happy, and they don't want that.

691
00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:11,279
Speaker 1: I will say as much crap as I give the Rock.

692
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,399
Speaker 1: He is actually a really good voice actor. I think

693
00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:17,319
Speaker 1: he should stop doing live action movies and just do

694
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:20,600
Speaker 1: a voice acting because he really shines as Maui. I

695
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:22,399
Speaker 1: think he really gives it as all. You can see

696
00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:24,840
Speaker 1: his inflections and how much he puts a lot of

697
00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:27,759
Speaker 1: his personal details into Maui. I think he has a

698
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,400
Speaker 1: lot of fun with it. It's probably also easier to

699
00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:32,759
Speaker 1: fit into his schedule. He can just get into a

700
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,319
Speaker 1: recording booth, lay some lines down, and then get on

701
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,360
Speaker 1: his private jet and go work out for ten hours

702
00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 1: or whatever he does whatever causes them to be five

703
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:42,960
Speaker 1: twelve hours late to set. I think he actually does

704
00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:46,840
Speaker 1: really great work in voice acting. Maui is his best

705
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 1: character in the last ten years. Why is Maui his

706
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:52,799
Speaker 1: best character in the last ten years. It's because it's

707
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 1: the only character that he portrays that actually has depth,

708
00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:00,800
Speaker 1: that actually goes through something, that actually has up and downs,

709
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 1: and doesn't win all the time. Mali loses fights. Maui

710
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:07,840
Speaker 1: also wins fights. Mali goes through sad times. All his

711
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,920
Speaker 1: other characters in every other movie, he's just the same

712
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:15,080
Speaker 1: thing over and over again, wins every fight, doesn't get

713
00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:19,200
Speaker 1: a scratch on him, faces no adversity. Maui actually has that,

714
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:21,200
Speaker 1: So I think that is why he's so attached to

715
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 1: this character and why he's gonna do him again in

716
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:27,200
Speaker 1: the live action movie. But I'm not that excited for that.

717
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:30,040
Speaker 1: I think he should just stick to doing more animated roles.

718
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:33,839
Speaker 1: So for Mawana two, I don't think it was entirely necessary.

719
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 1: I was even at a two point five for a while,

720
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 1: but there was some clapping at the end of this movie,

721
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 1: and I think people did leave satisfied, and I saw

722
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 1: a lot of happy faces all around, So I think

723
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 1: I have to give it a point five just because

724
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:52,839
Speaker 1: I am an adult talking about an animated movie meant

725
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 1: for a much younger demographic, and if they had a

726
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:58,200
Speaker 1: good time, I think that is worth a point five boost.

727
00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:00,879
Speaker 1: So for ma Wana two, I give it three out

728
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 1: of five hooks. It's time to head down to movie.

729
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:12,000
Speaker 1: Mike Traylor Paul. When I saw the first teaser trailer

730
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:16,879
Speaker 1: to Minecraft the movie, I thought, what is this garbage?

731
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:19,319
Speaker 1: It was to the point that I didn't even want

732
00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,880
Speaker 1: to feature it here because I thought it has to

733
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:25,040
Speaker 1: get better than this, right And Jack Black is doing

734
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:29,120
Speaker 1: every single video game adaptation right now. It seems like

735
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:33,239
Speaker 1: it was in Borderlands earlier this year. That movie completely

736
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:36,080
Speaker 1: flopped and I thought, oh, man, is he gonna do

737
00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:39,840
Speaker 1: it again? Is he gonna take down every single video

738
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 1: game adaptation he does? And Minecraft is the best selling

739
00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:47,520
Speaker 1: video game of all time. The creator of Minecraft is

740
00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:51,320
Speaker 1: actually a billionaire, which is rare for creators of video

741
00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:57,160
Speaker 1: games because usually they developed them underneath a company. When

742
00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,880
Speaker 1: I think of the biggest video game franchise, of all time,

743
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,959
Speaker 1: my head goes to Pokemon and how big that game

744
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:06,400
Speaker 1: Boy game was in the nineties and two thousands, and

745
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:10,080
Speaker 1: how much money Pokemon is generated. But the creator of

746
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:14,000
Speaker 1: Pokemon did it under a company, so he really just

747
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:17,360
Speaker 1: got paid like a normal employee, even though he is

748
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:20,120
Speaker 1: responsible for all these characters and the success of this

749
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:24,680
Speaker 1: franchise because of the idea that he had. However, when

750
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:29,520
Speaker 1: it comes to the creator of Minecraft, Marcus Pearson, he

751
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:33,240
Speaker 1: is worth one point two billion dollars after selling fifteen

752
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:36,799
Speaker 1: million copies of Minecraft across all the different consoles. In

753
00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:40,600
Speaker 1: twenty fourteen, he sold it to Microsoft for two point

754
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:45,840
Speaker 1: five billion dollars two point five billion dollars. Obviously, with

755
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:47,759
Speaker 1: the rights to the Minecraft, they're going to make a

756
00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:50,840
Speaker 1: movie about it. It is embedded in the minds of kids.

757
00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:53,120
Speaker 1: You see it all the time at Target. Even if

758
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:55,800
Speaker 1: you're not that familiar with it, you have seen something

759
00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:59,080
Speaker 1: Minecraft because of how unique and distinct it looks with

760
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:01,520
Speaker 1: all the blocks. And even me, I've never played the

761
00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:04,279
Speaker 1: video game, but I know the character Steve. I know

762
00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:07,840
Speaker 1: more about it just from Redditt Internet culture. Being a nerd,

763
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:09,839
Speaker 1: you kind of know all about these things, even though

764
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:11,840
Speaker 1: you don't play the video game yourself, so there is

765
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:15,600
Speaker 1: some anticipation around this movie, and even though I'm not

766
00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:18,040
Speaker 1: that familiar with it, I can see that. And I

767
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:20,960
Speaker 1: can also tell whenever something is going to be huge

768
00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:23,920
Speaker 1: and know that it's not going to be exactly for me.

769
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,080
Speaker 1: Last year I experienced that with Five Nights at Freddy's,

770
00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:29,840
Speaker 1: where I thought that movie was so lame and terrible,

771
00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 1: and I came on here and said it was one

772
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:33,279
Speaker 1: of the worst movies I've ever seen. I wanted to

773
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:35,319
Speaker 1: walk out of it, and I stand by that, but

774
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 1: there were so many fans of that franchise that told

775
00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:41,680
Speaker 1: me how wrong I was, because that movie directly played

776
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,839
Speaker 1: into the lore and really embodied what that video game

777
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:47,719
Speaker 1: franchise stood for. And I missed that because I never

778
00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:50,080
Speaker 1: played the video game. So I can see that now.

779
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,840
Speaker 1: Whenever this first teaser trailer came out from Minecraft, I

780
00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:55,960
Speaker 1: thought there has to be something I'm missing here because

781
00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:59,360
Speaker 1: it gave us nothing. It had really awful writing, and

782
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:02,319
Speaker 1: the one moment of triumph it's supposed to have it

783
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:04,920
Speaker 1: just felt completely flat. And I thought, this looks terrible.

784
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:08,239
Speaker 1: But this next full trailer has completely I would say

785
00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:11,160
Speaker 1: erase that bad teaser from my memory, and I can

786
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:14,160
Speaker 1: actually see the big adventure you're gonna go on with

787
00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:16,799
Speaker 1: these characters. I see now more how they are going

788
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:20,759
Speaker 1: to adapt the story into actually following the character of

789
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:24,480
Speaker 1: Steve played by Jack Black. You also have Jason Momoa

790
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:28,720
Speaker 1: in this movie, Jennifer Coolidge, Emma Myers from Wednesday, Danielle

791
00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,000
Speaker 1: Brooks from Orange is the New Black, and the color

792
00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,680
Speaker 1: Purple is also rounding out this cast. It looks like

793
00:39:33,719 --> 00:39:36,360
Speaker 1: they are all characters who get sucked into this world,

794
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:38,640
Speaker 1: which also looks like it's gonna be the origin story

795
00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 1: of Steve. You see him as a young kid in

796
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:43,200
Speaker 1: this trailer saying that he always wanted to go to

797
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:46,120
Speaker 1: the mines but was totally wasn't cut out for it.

798
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:48,719
Speaker 1: Then it cuts to him as adult Jack Black getting

799
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 1: sucked into this world and realizing that here you can

800
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,799
Speaker 1: create anything you want, anything you can imagine, as long

801
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:57,040
Speaker 1: as you can do with blocks. So this movie is

802
00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,640
Speaker 1: coming out next year on April fourth, twenty twenty five.

803
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,319
Speaker 1: Before I get into more about Minecraft, here's just a

804
00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:07,800
Speaker 1: little bit of the trailer. I am Steve. As a child,

805
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:11,320
Speaker 1: I yearned for the minds, So one day I started

806
00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:21,640
Speaker 1: digging and digging until I found this a wonderland where

807
00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:25,040
Speaker 1: anything you can imagine is possible as long as what

808
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:32,480
Speaker 1: you imagine can be built out of blocks. Now, that

809
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,760
Speaker 1: makes me want to see this movie. The teaser before

810
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:38,280
Speaker 1: this did not make me want to see this movie

811
00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:42,319
Speaker 1: because it emphasized more the comedy of this movie, which

812
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:45,640
Speaker 1: I feel is really playing to young kids, probably more

813
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:48,480
Speaker 1: so the demographic of Minecraft, even though the game has

814
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:50,799
Speaker 1: been out for a long time. I think if there

815
00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:53,319
Speaker 1: are people still actively playing this, there are probably young

816
00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:56,720
Speaker 1: kids that they are targeting this movie towards and hoping

817
00:40:56,840 --> 00:41:00,480
Speaker 1: the teenagers, twenty year olds or thirty years holds like

818
00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:04,040
Speaker 1: me will still be enticed by it. And this was

819
00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:09,680
Speaker 1: an example of the comedy from the first teaser, I'm Steve, Okay,

820
00:41:10,400 --> 00:41:13,360
Speaker 1: this guy is such a tool bug. That is awful

821
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:17,839
Speaker 1: writing that line that's like okay, calling him a toolbag

822
00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:22,040
Speaker 1: is just vanilla writing and very much so like why

823
00:41:22,040 --> 00:41:25,439
Speaker 1: are we even doing this? And a big issue right

824
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:29,440
Speaker 1: now in Hollywood has to do with this movie where

825
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:35,919
Speaker 1: it feels almost that ips are more lucrative and more

826
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:38,960
Speaker 1: important than writing a good script. And after watching that teaser,

827
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:41,120
Speaker 1: that is what I felt because it seemed like they

828
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 1: weren't really trying to make a movie that was trying

829
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:47,200
Speaker 1: to say anything, that was building a world. They were

830
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:49,920
Speaker 1: just thinking, Okay, we have this ip of Minecraft that

831
00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:52,759
Speaker 1: is a huge ip. It's made all this money. This

832
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,359
Speaker 1: dude's a billionaire. Obviously we have to make a movie

833
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:58,720
Speaker 1: about this to make some more money. But just having

834
00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:02,239
Speaker 1: that ip without having a good script, it led me

835
00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:06,120
Speaker 1: to believe that they're just churning out another generic video

836
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:10,000
Speaker 1: game movie that'll come out, probably be number one at

837
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:12,680
Speaker 1: the box office, but then greatly dip in that second week.

838
00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:15,360
Speaker 1: I've seen it time and time again. There are some

839
00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:18,560
Speaker 1: great video game franchises out there right now. I can't

840
00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,840
Speaker 1: wait to see Sonic three. But after seeing what happened

841
00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:23,800
Speaker 1: with Borderlands earlier this year, it's almost like certain movies

842
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:25,719
Speaker 1: are like, Okay, they did this one right, but this

843
00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:28,839
Speaker 1: one is terrible. There is such a crazy difference in

844
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:32,120
Speaker 1: the best video game adaptations to the worst. It's almost

845
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:34,319
Speaker 1: like there's no middle ground. You either nail it and

846
00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:38,439
Speaker 1: incorporate things from the video game strategically and make those

847
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:41,160
Speaker 1: fans happy, but also, at the end of the day,

848
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:43,799
Speaker 1: make a really great movie that is what is important here.

849
00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:46,360
Speaker 1: You have to tell a story with character development, not

850
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:49,120
Speaker 1: just throw a bunch of quirky little jokes in there

851
00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,560
Speaker 1: that are not even really jokes. This movie is also

852
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:55,440
Speaker 1: directed by Jared Hess, who famously directed Napoleon Dynamite and

853
00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:59,120
Speaker 1: Not Jolibite, which gives me the Jack Black connection between

854
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:02,279
Speaker 1: him and Jared. So I'm hoping there's some comedy that

855
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:05,600
Speaker 1: comes out that draws inspiration from those two movies, which

856
00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:09,760
Speaker 1: is very dry and witty, and hopefully that still holds

857
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:12,160
Speaker 1: up with a movie with a budget like this. And

858
00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:14,200
Speaker 1: I think overall, all the creatures that you see in

859
00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,960
Speaker 1: this trailer in the Overworld look really good. They look

860
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:20,000
Speaker 1: like you can physically touch them. They're all square, some

861
00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:22,759
Speaker 1: of them are fuzzy, and I think overall did a

862
00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:24,880
Speaker 1: really good job, based upon what I see from the

863
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:27,400
Speaker 1: video game and what I see in this trailer, of

864
00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:30,279
Speaker 1: really bringing that world to life. So I think they

865
00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:33,920
Speaker 1: have the visuals down pretty well, even though the character

866
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:36,680
Speaker 1: design and the costumes on the live action people with

867
00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:39,319
Speaker 1: I just don't really quite get it. Jason Momo's wig

868
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:41,640
Speaker 1: looks awful, but I think that is what his character,

869
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:45,000
Speaker 1: the garbage Man, looks like, so hopefully that holds up

870
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:48,239
Speaker 1: throughout this movie. He just looks to me utterly ridiculous.

871
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:50,880
Speaker 1: But I think overall the visuals are there. It's going

872
00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:53,479
Speaker 1: to come down to is there actually a story here?

873
00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:56,479
Speaker 1: This trailer does give me indication that there is going

874
00:43:56,560 --> 00:44:00,480
Speaker 1: to be. I think it will lean into this kind

875
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,440
Speaker 1: of kitchy style of comedy throughout the movie. So is

876
00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:05,840
Speaker 1: that gonna wear on you by the end? Hopefully not.

877
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:09,160
Speaker 1: Hopefully the big action in this movie will actually make

878
00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:11,439
Speaker 1: for some great conflict again. This movie is coming out

879
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:12,880
Speaker 1: next year on April fourth.

880
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:17,400
Speaker 2: And that was this week's edition of Movie Line Tram or.

881
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:20,080
Speaker 1: Bar And that is gonna do it for another episode

882
00:44:20,160 --> 00:44:22,239
Speaker 1: here of the podcast. But before I go, I gotta

883
00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:25,000
Speaker 1: get my listeners. Shout out of the week this week,

884
00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:28,200
Speaker 1: I'm going over to my Instagram DMS listener Shout Out

885
00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:30,279
Speaker 1: of the Week goes to Cinnamon the Cat. I didn't

886
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:33,120
Speaker 1: know cats could listen to podcasts. Maybe they call them podcats.

887
00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:35,720
Speaker 1: But send him in the cat send me a message

888
00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:38,759
Speaker 1: and said love your podcast. Wanted to let you know.

889
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:44,000
Speaker 1: The expression is suspend your disbelief, not suspend your belief.

890
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:48,280
Speaker 1: If you don't care, just ignore this Lol. Cheers you guys.

891
00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:50,000
Speaker 1: It took a cat to call me out on that.

892
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:53,359
Speaker 1: I felt so stupid reading that DM, and I knew

893
00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:54,880
Speaker 1: what I was trying to say, and I thought I

894
00:44:54,920 --> 00:44:57,320
Speaker 1: had the phrase right and I used that phrase a lot,

895
00:44:57,960 --> 00:45:00,560
Speaker 1: but it took Cinnamon the Cat to correct me on that.

896
00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:03,120
Speaker 1: And since then, I've heard other people say now, and

897
00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:05,000
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my gosh, how did I not realize

898
00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:08,520
Speaker 1: I was saying it wrong? Suspend your disbelief? Like, I

899
00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:11,520
Speaker 1: don't really know. Maybe I'm stupid here. How much different

900
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 1: that is from suspend your belief because you're suspending it

901
00:45:14,760 --> 00:45:16,880
Speaker 1: makes sense. I realize I'm saying it wrong now, so

902
00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:20,719
Speaker 1: appreciate that. Cinnamon the Cat, thank you for listening. I'll

903
00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:23,759
Speaker 1: try to include more cat content in episodes. Maybe I'll

904
00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:26,959
Speaker 1: do my top five animated cats of all time. Hmm

905
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:30,000
Speaker 1: if I had to think about that now, Well, Cinnamon

906
00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:31,520
Speaker 1: the Cat, you're not in a movie, because you're my

907
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:34,000
Speaker 1: favorite cat right now. But Garfield obviously.

908
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:34,680
Speaker 2: Ooh.

909
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:37,520
Speaker 1: I also really like Salem from Sabrina the Teenage Witch.

910
00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:40,360
Speaker 1: Great cat, but not really in a movie. There's the

911
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:42,759
Speaker 1: cat in the hat, Puss in boots obviously that's a

912
00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:46,240
Speaker 1: strong one, Felix the Cat, Sylvester these An't some movies

913
00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:49,160
Speaker 1: here and there, Pink pant Ah, the Pink Panther, Hill Kitty. Oh,

914
00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:50,880
Speaker 1: there are a lot of great animated cats, but right

915
00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:53,680
Speaker 1: now my favorite cat is Cinnamon the Cat. Thank you

916
00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:55,440
Speaker 1: for calling me out on that. I'm sure it was

917
00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:58,600
Speaker 1: driving other people crazy. Also, the other DM I got

918
00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:02,920
Speaker 1: recently is how much I was butchering Kieran Colkin's name

919
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:04,640
Speaker 1: not Kierrian. I don't know why I was saying that

920
00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:07,319
Speaker 1: wrong either. I listened back to that review, I was like,

921
00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:11,600
Speaker 1: you idiot, it is Kieran, So apologies. I know I'm

922
00:46:11,600 --> 00:46:15,360
Speaker 1: not perfect. I mess up words. Sometimes my brain thinks

923
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:18,440
Speaker 1: faster than my mouth can keep up with, so in

924
00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:21,040
Speaker 1: my head I'm always moving on to the next thing.

925
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:22,839
Speaker 1: In my mouth is delayed a little bit. It's kind

926
00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:24,680
Speaker 1: of like when you're having a meeting on Zoom where

927
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:27,440
Speaker 1: you're saying something the other person starts saying something. That

928
00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:30,319
Speaker 1: is sometimes the level of delay I have between my

929
00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:32,920
Speaker 1: brain thinking something and my mouth saying it. And sometimes

930
00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:34,359
Speaker 1: I listen back and I'm like, why did I even

931
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:36,440
