Speaker 1: co host Kelsey. How are you.

4
00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:06,240
Speaker 2: I'm good.

5
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:09,120
Speaker 1: We're here to talk about the best and worst of May.

6
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:12,160
Speaker 1: We'll get into that in the movie review. I'll be

7
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 1: talking about my thoughts on the new Mission Impossible movie.

8
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:17,239
Speaker 1: And in the trailer park there's a new movie with

9
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 1: Aziz on Sari, Seth Rogan, and Keanu Reeves. It's comedy.

10
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:24,479
Speaker 1: Out of all those three actors, who do you like

11
00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:24,880
Speaker 1: the most?

12
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 2: Sorry, I'm distracting thinking about how much tweed they.

13
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:28,040
Speaker 1: Spunked on us.

14
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:34,280
Speaker 2: There. Yeah, probably Soeth Rogan. I do think he's funny.

15
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:36,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Auz he'sum. Sorry, but I think most

16
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:38,920
Speaker 1: people love Keanu Reeves. Not that I don't like Keanu Reeves.

17
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: I just think I've been a longer fan of Aziz.

18
00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 1: He also hasn't been in a movie in a while,

19
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:44,959
Speaker 1: so I think that's also why I'm excited to see

20
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 1: him back in something. So I'll talk about that. Thank

21
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:49,400

Speaker 1: talk movies from.

24
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 3: The Nustville podcast Networking is Movie Mike's movie podcast.

25
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:01,920
Speaker 1: Well, jump right in to it. Best of May. What

26
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 1: do you got Thunderbolts? Were you surprised how much you

27
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 1: enjoyed it?

28
00:01:05,520 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 2: No, because I always enjoy a Marvel movie. Even if

29
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,959
Speaker 2: a Marvel movie is a bad Marvel movie, it's still

30
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:12,400
Speaker 2: a good movie in my opinion.

31
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 1: So you don't have superhero fatigue that a lot of

32
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 1: people are complaining about. I don't know if that's a

33
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:20,040
Speaker 1: real thing or just the thing journalists and people online

34
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 1: are talking about, like superhero fatigue.

35
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 2: No, it was also fun too because we wudn't see

36
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 2: it with my family, so we saw it with my brothers,

37
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:28,759
Speaker 2: and it like kind of took me back to when

38
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 2: I lived in Texas and lived close to them and

39
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 2: we'd go see every Marvel movie together.

40
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 1: The thing I've had to learn from going to movies

41
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 1: with your family is your family is a back of

42
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: the row theater family the top row the row, back

43
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 1: at the back where there's nobody behind you. It's at

44
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 1: the very top. Why is that? Because my dad's a

45
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: former cop, so it's a security thing.

46
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 2: It's a he wants to be able to see his

47
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 2: environment he's just always been the way he has to

48
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 2: sit facing the door of a restaurant. We've just always

49
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 2: been top row. I think they also just like that

50
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 2: there's no one behind.

51
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 1: Them that part. I do kind of like it's it's

52
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 1: a lot higher up than I would I would prefer,

53
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 1: because our normal row is ye.

54
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 2: But it's still not that high up because it's like

55
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 2: the TRUEUSI recliners. Theaters used to be way taller. There

56
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 2: was one aging myself called Tenseltown off of my thirty five.

57
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 2: I remember that Olderville, and those were like giant because

58
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,919
Speaker 2: that was when it was just like the normal stadium seating,

59
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:25,960
Speaker 2: so that you can call it so there were more rows.

60
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 2: Now that it's all like recliners, there's less rows that

61
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,640
Speaker 2: you can put in, So I don't even feel like

62
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 2: the further back.

63
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: It's not that high far and the screens have gotten

64
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: bigger since back then.

65
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:39,640
Speaker 2: I would much rather be on the back row than

66
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 2: the front row.

67
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,799
Speaker 1: I also think the front row isn't that close as

68
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 1: it used to be anymore, because.

69
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 2: But you still can't see that well. You're just like

70
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 2: staring up like you leave.

71
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: Your neck hurts because whenever I went to go see minecraft.

72
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 1: I got our normal row, but there was a whole

73
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 1: family taking up the row and they had like young kids,

74
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 1: and I was like, I don't want to make this

75
00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 1: a thing of making them move, So I went down

76
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: further up where I was in that bottom section, like

77
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,079
Speaker 1: in the last row of the bottom section. But even

78
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 1: that wasn't bad, and I could have gone to the

79
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,160
Speaker 1: very front row and I wouldn't have had that issue

80
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 1: where I was like, oh my neck heurge.

81
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 2: After this, I feel like we saw something? Is it

82
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 2: Star Wars? Yes?

83
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 1: Star Oh, don't tell the story. Don't tell the story.

84
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 1: That was when we were long distance, uh, which we

85
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 1: were long distance for two years, and I was.

86
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 2: Coming to town for Christmas and Star Wars movie was

87
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 2: coming out, like right before Christmas, multiple visits. I was like, hey,

88
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,639
Speaker 2: should get tickets, and You're like, we don't need to

89
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 2: get tickets, like gaslighting me that it was not going

90
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 2: to sell out.

91
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 1: Oh, they will be fine. Where do we end up

92
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 1: sitting the front row?

93
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 2: Yep? And who was right that we should have bought

94
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 2: the tickets sooner? So now never argues with me when

95
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 2: I'm like, let's get the tickets.

96
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: We always get tickets really early. Which I don't know

97
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 1: if a lot of people do that whenever they go like,

98
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 1: we're the type of people whenever they go on sale,

99
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: we're like.

100
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 2: The first people buying tickets. It's also so easy in

101
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 2: the Regal app. This it's not an ad for the

102
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 2: Regal app, but again, Regal, if you would like sponsor us,

103
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 2: let us know and I just do it and we

104
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 2: get the seats we want, just check out with a

105
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 2: little Regal Unlimited easy piecing.

106
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,560
Speaker 1: I will say our Regal Unlimited has come into handy

107
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 1: in the last month, like thirty bucks less than thirty bucks.

108
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 2: It's like twenty nine something. Now. Yeah, we were looking

109
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 2: at we were like, you know what, let's branch out

110
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 2: and go to a different theater, like that's fun in

111
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 2: your thirties. I was like, well, let's go to a

112
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,039
Speaker 2: different theater in a different grocery store this weekend, Like genuinely,

113
00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 2: I was like, it's gonna be a fun Saturday.

114
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 1: See how they do popcorn.

115
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,480
Speaker 2: And then we looked at the prices and I said,

116
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 2: never mind, we don't need to have fun elsewhere. It

117
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 2: was like twenty one dollars.

118
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: It's almost our home, matinee, almost our home. Mon regal.

119
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:36,600
Speaker 2: We can go see a movie every day, we can

120
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,599
Speaker 2: see the same movie multiple times. We're gonna go see

121
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 2: Leland Stitching in this weekend.

122
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,720
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I can't wait. And I'm like, in this economy,

123
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 1: gotta save money, I can't do that. I ended up

124
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 1: really enjoying Thunderbolts as well. I think you got back

125
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 1: to what made Marvel so great in phase one, and

126
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: I think it sets up where we're going with a

127
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 1: Fantastic four. I do want to get into here later

128
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:59,279
Speaker 1: of all the other movies coming out this summer, but

129
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 1: now I'm excited, which I never really jumped ship on Marvel.

130
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,920
Speaker 1: There were some movies here and there since twenty twenty

131
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 1: that I haven't loved.

132
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,479
Speaker 2: I think it was disappointing after Captain America, A Brave

133
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,280
Speaker 2: New World was not as good as everyone helped. I

134
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,359
Speaker 2: think that was kind of like, oh no, like is

135
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 2: Marvel done for?

136
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,880
Speaker 1: But after that, I feel this has taken them an

137
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,360
Speaker 1: entirely different direction. The action was back in this where

138
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,239
Speaker 1: it was like, oh, this is actually just good fighting

139
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 1: and good just the building of a team again, which

140
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 1: we saw what happened at the end of it. But

141
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,280
Speaker 1: I think like this is what they need to do.

142
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 1: They need to stop trying to hold on to all

143
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 1: the old characters from the old Avengers movies and kind

144
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 1: of move on and establish this world, which I think

145
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:36,600
Speaker 1: they did a really good job.

146
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're funny. Thing about going to the movie with

147
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 2: my family is just the snacks that they get.

148
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, your family goes all like we do, drinks and

149
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 1: popcorn and they go all out.

150
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 2: My parents are always like, how do we spend so

151
00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 2: much money? And I'm like, that's cause I think my

152
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 2: dad got I think he started with popcorn and a pickle,

153
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 2: which we've discussed this for pickle in a bag. In

154
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,359
Speaker 2: a bag are a very big thing at theaters and Texas.

155
00:05:57,440 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 2: And then I think halfway through the movie he came

156
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 2: back with a hot dog. My youngest brother had a

157
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 2: bag of talkies and a slurpie, and then the older

158
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 2: one had a large popcorn a drink. I and I

159
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 2: know Regal does have like putting air quotes food, but

160
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 2: where I grew up in Texas, there was a theater

161
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 2: he had tater tots and they were so good. Let

162
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 2: me tell you, I'm sure they were frozen out of

163
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 2: a bag and just thrown into the fryar, but you

164
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:27,320
Speaker 2: could get a whole styrofoam container of tater tots. Underrated

165
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:27,919
Speaker 2: movie food.

166
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 1: I mean it's also easy to eat while watching a

167
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,360
Speaker 1: movie like It's that is underutilized food and.

168
00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 2: Vibe is popcorn like a salty delicious, I.

169
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,479
Speaker 1: Would be more inclined to get some tater tots.

170
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, you don't eat popcorn. It has even when your

171
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 2: braces are going to be off, I don't see eating popcorn.

172
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,720
Speaker 1: Which is soon, by the way, for everybody who's been

173
00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 1: asking me.

174
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,159
Speaker 2: Oh, I didn't know we were gonna exclusive exclusive.

175
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:53,240
Speaker 1: They're coming off after this airs in like a week

176
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 1: and a half. Yeah, yeah, so maybe I'll be speaking

177
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 1: better without them on. So what would you rate Thunderbolts.

178
00:06:59,040 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 2: Four and a half on a five?

179
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 1: Bob's good old Bob for my favorite of may would

180
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,719
Speaker 1: it be any other movie? Leelo and Stitch, which I

181
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 1: did not give a five out of five because I

182
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 1: think the original was a five out of five doesn't

183
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: quite come close to it. I don't think anything's ever

184
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 1: gonna touch that. But do you give it a four

185
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 1: point five out of five? And at the moment of

186
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 1: recording this, we do have tickets to see it again.

187
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 2: I was reviewing our credit card stalment for the month,

188
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 2: and I was like, those regal charges for the Stitch

189
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 2: Merch the most we've ever spent. Like, I don't pay

190
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 2: for popcorn at the movie because I have we have

191
00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 2: our regal credits. Like we go to so many movies

192
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 2: that were just always accumulating credits that I always have

193
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 2: a free popcorn.

194
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 1: Or some kind of discount or something, And to pay

195
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 1: for popcorn.

196
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 2: I was like, y'ell around her paying for this.

197
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 1: It's expensive.

198
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I see why people complain about going to the

199
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 2: movies now.

200
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: It is expensive.

201
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 2: And it was a very small portion of popcorn.

202
00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 1: And corn pale as I called it.

203
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a pail. You told the story too

204
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 2: of how I like went on my lunch break to

205
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 2: get the giant thing and then it.

206
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 1: Was still to make sure you could get it there

207
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 1: still in stock. But you know how it would it

208
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: worked the other way if you didn't do that.

209
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 2: I know it's fun to surprise you, but it was

210
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 2: just like the day I picked to go, there was

211
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 2: so much traffic and I was regretting every choice I'd

212
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 2: ever made. And then we walk into the theater and

213
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 2: somebody's like walking out with one and they're like, ah,

214
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 2: I was like, are you bleeping kidding me?

215
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 1: But when it came to the first theater experience, I

216
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 1: think I was judging it so the first close there

217
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,440
Speaker 1: have been only a handful of movies I've seen twice

218
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:27,600
Speaker 1: in theaters. Twisters was one in recent history. Blue Beetle

219
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 1: was also one in recent history before Black Panther. Black

220
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,319
Speaker 1: Panther because we saw it, you and I and we

221
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 1: saw it with your family, which is kind of the

222
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 1: same deal with Blue Beetle. And I think those are

223
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,839
Speaker 1: all the movies I've seen twice in theaters and now

224
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 1: about to be Leelo and Stitch. And it's because whenever

225
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,080
Speaker 1: we first went to go see it, I was comparing

226
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,320
Speaker 1: it to the original and wondering what they were going

227
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:49,679
Speaker 1: to keep in and what they were going to make

228
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,920
Speaker 1: differently that I don't think I fully enjoyed all of it. Yeah,

229
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:55,679
Speaker 1: you were analyzing because I was like, okay, they could

230
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 1: do this all They're going to cut this out. Hey,

231
00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:58,560
Speaker 1: this is different, and I had to think of, like,

232
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 1: how's the story going to change if they don't have this.

233
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 1: So I think now that I know what the live

234
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 1: action version is I can go into it and just

235
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 1: enjoy it for what it is, and then it starts

236
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 1: forming into like, oh, this is how I differentiate the two.

237
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: But I think the opposite thing kind of happened for

238
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 1: me is where sometimes when they remake a movie I love,

239
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: I'm overly critical of it, but I think how much

240
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 1: I love the original. I was almost gonna love it

241
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 1: no matter what. Yeah, so I can see why some

242
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 1: people didn't enjoy it, and they kind of put it

243
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 1: in that category of Disney just trying to cash grab

244
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,839
Speaker 1: on all their old properties. But I just can't see

245
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 1: it that way. I even said bit of a bias here,

246
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 1: because I love the first one so much that there's

247
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 1: nothing they could have done that would have made me

248
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 1: hate it. I can't hate too cute, and he was cute.

249
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 2: I was afraid that he was gonna look terrifying like

250
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 2: those first few renderings when they started saying like live action,

251
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 2: I was like, oh no, and then you watch it,

252
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 2: you're like, he's so cute.

253
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 1: I'm when I was mad. I thought it was gonna

254
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:58,719
Speaker 1: happen like whenever they first made the song, like the

255
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 1: Hedgehog movie, and the rendering came out of sonic, and

256
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 1: he looked terrifying, and people online complained about it so

257
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:06,840
Speaker 1: much that they went back and changed his eyes and

258
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: changed his mouth, and then he looked cute again.

259
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 2: Listen what people want.

260
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 1: So I think the fact that Stitch looked good helped

261
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: the entire movie, because if you didn't, it would be

262
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 1: really unbelievable, and even more so than the original movie.

263
00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, man, like, I wish I hit

264
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 1: my own stitching now because of you, I do. I

265
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,599
Speaker 1: come in here every day and I smiled because of

266
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: that thing staring back at me.

267
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 2: Your reaction was so pure. It was so I got

268
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 2: home with it. You were in the shower, so I

269
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:37,679
Speaker 2: ran into the house first to make sure you weren't around.

270
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 2: I was like, hello, I'm home. No response. I was like, okay,

271
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:42,680
Speaker 2: I'm good. So I run back out to my car.

272
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 2: I get it, and I come home and I put

273
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,679
Speaker 2: it on the counter in the kitchen, and you had

274
00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:49,920
Speaker 2: walked past to get something out of the guest bathroom,

275
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 2: and then you turned around and you like locked eyes

276
00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:54,719
Speaker 2: with it on the kitchen counter, and you were like.

277
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 1: What is that? Say, where'd you get it? Where'd you

278
00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:57,720
Speaker 1: get that?

279
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 2: Now? I was like where do you think I got it?

280
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,840
Speaker 1: It just looks so lifelike that I was like, wait,

281
00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 1: what is happening here? It felt like I was having

282
00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 1: a very vivid dream because I'm like, why is Stitch

283
00:11:08,880 --> 00:11:11,400
Speaker 1: on the counter right now? But that's gonna be a

284
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 1: core memory for me of you showing up with that randomly.

285
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,480
Speaker 1: So I think even though we probably could have got

286
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 1: it on opening.

287
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,760
Speaker 2: Night, yeah, I forgot to use a real unlimited discount.

288
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:24,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that memory alone is probably worth it.

289
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:25,719
Speaker 1: But again, I'm not the one who had to sit

290
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:26,440
Speaker 1: in traffic, so.

291
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 2: It was fine. I also was going to support us,

292
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:29,640
Speaker 2: so I.

293
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 1: Made a trip of it. But for Lail and Stitch

294
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: after the first viewing, I give it a four point

295
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 1: five out of five. Still can't really go up from there.

296
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 1: I don't think it's going to go down from there.

297
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:40,880
Speaker 1: I think that is where it's going to live forever.

298
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:44,800
Speaker 1: I am excited that with the success of it, they're

299
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 1: probably going to make more of them. And the crazy

300
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 1: thing was well, maybe not that crazy, but I think

301
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 1: the biggest audience that came out for in an opening

302
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,839
Speaker 1: weekend was millennials and millennials oh absolutely, So it wasn't

303
00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,239
Speaker 1: even like this is a family.

304
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 2: Friendly millennials in like Stitch Snuggies.

305
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 1: I think it was like over fifty percent of people

306
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 1: were like our age, will went to go see it,

307
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 1: which made me feel better about it, just because even

308
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,360
Speaker 1: with you getting me that popcorn bucket and how big

309
00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 1: of a fan I am of Stitch, I kind of

310
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,880
Speaker 1: felt like, not a shame, but a little like ah, man,

311
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,080
Speaker 1: like this is an adult man so into Stitch. But

312
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,959
Speaker 1: I think seeing that there's this entire fan base that

313
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,360
Speaker 1: is my same age, and just seeing people on TikTok

314
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: post about it, I'm like, oh, everybody's doing this, it

315
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:28,560
Speaker 1: feels more normal.

316
00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:30,079
Speaker 2: I also told you not to be ashamed of things

317
00:12:30,080 --> 00:12:30,640
Speaker 2: that you enjoy.

318
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 1: I like collect.

319
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,439
Speaker 2: I was thinking about this earlier for some random reason.

320
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 2: I was like, we in the age of people making

321
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 2: tiktoks of like things that give me the ick, things

322
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 2: that are in, things that are out Like I understand

323
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 2: the like good natured fun of it, but I also

324
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,760
Speaker 2: think those things can be really like hurtful to people

325
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:51,200
Speaker 2: because don't yuck someone's yum. Like I just was like

326
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,640
Speaker 2: the things that like some people choose to spend their

327
00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 2: money on if it's not how you spend your money.

328
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:58,720
Speaker 2: That's great, Like, just enjoy what you enjoy.

329
00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 1: Life's hard enough, so hard to find things hobbies you

330
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,080
Speaker 1: want that bring you joy in this life, and just

331
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 1: the way everything has been in the last few years,

332
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:09,199
Speaker 1: it's like, man, if we could just find some kind

333
00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 1: of comfort in a blue little creature, why not.

334
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 2: I did use this as a learning point for you.

335
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 2: I was like, see, you want all these different stitches.

336
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:19,200
Speaker 2: They're the same thing, but they serve a different purpose.

337
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 2: That's how I feel buying seventeen blushes.

338
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, if you look in this room, I can see

339
00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 1: three different stitches. One that you're holding right now, which

340
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 1: is a stuff stitch, like a weighted stitch. There just

341
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,880
Speaker 1: five stitches. There's the popcorn bucket. Oh yeah, there's this

342
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 1: small one.

343
00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,720
Speaker 2: There's the one I'm holding in There's two figures. There's

344
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:35,839
Speaker 2: five stitches in here.

345
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 1: Five stitches. I think he's almost up there with Spider

346
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 1: Man in this room. He's getting close.

347
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 2: Yeah. I love your room. I think it's turned out

348
00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:44,439
Speaker 2: so cool.

349
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 1: I love it so our worst now, what was the

350
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,720
Speaker 1: worst thing you saw in I don't think I'm gonna

351
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 1: like this in May.

352
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:52,199
Speaker 2: Friendship.

353
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:56,679
Speaker 1: I love friendship Tom Robinson, Tim Robinson, sorry.

354
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,320
Speaker 2: But I and I don't mean this rude. I think

355
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 2: people who were lightly more socially awkward enjoyed it because

356
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 2: they see themselves in it.

357
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 1: Is that why I love stuff like this?

358
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 2: I think so. I think that's why you're into like

359
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 2: the rehearsal, like, because it's just like socially awkward people

360
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 2: trying to make their way.

361
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,960
Speaker 1: Maybe that's why I love jam Robinson so much.

362
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 2: To me is that you're not socially awkward around me.

363
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 1: I can't quite explain that, because you're the only person

364
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 1: I can be my true self around where I don't

365
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 1: care what I say or how I say it.

366
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 2: But it's like I'll post things on instagramm or stories

367
00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 2: and like my friends find it hilarious and I'm like,

368
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:31,080
Speaker 2: y'all think he's so quiet, but I'm like, this is

369
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:32,800
Speaker 2: the mic that I get twenty four to seven.

370
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, just whenever I'm around people, even people I do know,

371
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 1: I just feel like in my head so much, and

372
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 1: I think that's why I find comfort in these characters

373
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 1: that like Tim Robinson does. Maybe that's it. Maybe that's

374
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:45,680
Speaker 1: why I love this movie.

375
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 2: I it just wasn't my brand of humor and it is.

376
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 1: It's a really hard movie to recommend to say, this

377
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:53,760
Speaker 1: is gonna be funny, you should go see it.

378
00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's a I would recommend to

379
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 2: anyone in theaters.

380
00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, wait, because the comedy is it's so interesting, peculiar,

381
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:06,520
Speaker 1: and it's so original. But sometimes when you're so original,

382
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 1: a lot of people can find it off putting and

383
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 1: just kind of dismiss it, which I get. And if

384
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 1: you watch his show on Netflix, or if you watch

385
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,920
Speaker 1: A Detroiter's which was a Comedy Central show, the Netflix

386
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 1: show is I think you should leave. You kind of

387
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 1: know his brand of humor and I love it. I

388
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 1: love probably Detroiter's more just because it is more character

389
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,920
Speaker 1: driven and there's an actual storyline. I think you should leave,

390
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 1: or like really short episodes with a bunch of random skits.

391
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 1: And if you don't know Tim Robinson, he started out

392
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,560
Speaker 1: as a writer on SNL, was I think a cast

393
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 1: member for a little bit, but never written. Never really

394
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: quite panned out there. I think it's because his brand

395
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 1: of humor was so specific that it didn't really work

396
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,200
Speaker 1: on Saturday Night Live, Which.

397
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 2: Is funny because I feel like a lot of things

398
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,840
Speaker 2: that SNL does are niche humor, Yeah.

399
00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:55,120
Speaker 1: But sometimes even like a Kyle Mooney, who I would

400
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 1: say was more successful on SNL than Tim Robinson. His

401
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 1: brand of humor is also so specific that it didn't

402
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 1: really quite take off on SNL as much as maybe

403
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,840
Speaker 1: some people thought. But I think Tim Robinson has had

404
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 1: more success outside of it, and this movie was kind

405
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 1: of a culmination of all of his TV shows and

406
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:15,200
Speaker 1: I thought it was good. I still enjoyed it, but

407
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,120
Speaker 1: I thought I was gonna love bit more based upon

408
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,200
Speaker 1: him being I would say my favorite comedian right now.

409
00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 1: So still a really good movie. I thought Paul Rudd

410
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,880
Speaker 1: was really good in it too. I just think overall

411
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 1: the story wasn't exactly what I was expecting.

412
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 2: Kate Mara being in it was a surprise to me.

413
00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 1: As far as my worst movie for May, there wasn't

414
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 1: really a bad movie, and I think that's a good

415
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:38,720
Speaker 1: sign for the summer blockbuster season. But the one I

416
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 1: enjoyed the least was Final Destination Bloodlines, which I gave

417
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 1: a three point five out of five. I just think

418
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: they kind of ran out of ideas and overall, when

419
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:51,520
Speaker 1: it comes to horror franchises, Final destination isn't my go to.

420
00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 1: I also went to go see it alone because you're like,

421
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:55,000
Speaker 1: I don't want to any.

422
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 2: Part of this The only one I've ever seen all

423
00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 2: the way through, and I've seen it multiple times because

424
00:16:58,320 --> 00:16:59,920
Speaker 2: it was like a go to sleepover movie in my

425
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 2: school's final destination too. It's traumatizing. The only thing I

426
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 2: remember the logs are in that one, right, That's all

427
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 2: I remember, And I can't drive behind anything that has

428
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 2: things that are like tied to it. I will go

429
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:12,760
Speaker 2: around and I feel like that's the most effective marketing

430
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 2: that our generation has ever seen.

431
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 1: They even brought back that marketing with this movie, and

432
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:19,000
Speaker 1: I think maybe something I missed a little bit was

433
00:17:19,040 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 1: not seeing it with people, because I think it is

434
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 1: one of those movies where you go with somebody and

435
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,239
Speaker 1: you both kind of poke fun at how ridiculous it

436
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,359
Speaker 1: is and have that kind of bonding moment. It was

437
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 1: also kind of an empyr theater, so I also like

438
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 1: seeing horror movies like in the middle of the day.

439
00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 1: It's just one of the best feelings. But that would

440
00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 1: be my worst of the month of May. Overall, not

441
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:42,399
Speaker 1: a bad month that got the lowest rating. What was

442
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:43,640
Speaker 1: your favorite TV.

443
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 2: Show of the month Easy, Overcompensating That was.

444
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 1: A really funny show. What's the premise of that?

445
00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 2: So it's Benito Skinner, who is a comedian. He has

446
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 2: been doing like sketches and skits for years, and it's

447
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 2: history of being gay in college but no one knows,

448
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,399
Speaker 2: so we're still not telling people hiding his identity, and

449
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 2: it's him like trying to navigate college just kind of

450
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,879
Speaker 2: like a bro dude, but like being gay and trying.

451
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 1: To be accepted therefore, over Compensating.

452
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:16,000
Speaker 2: It was so funny. And I was listening to he

453
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:17,879
Speaker 2: and Mary Beth Burrow and they do a podcast, but

454
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:19,840
Speaker 2: they were on Jake Shane's podcast and he was like,

455
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:21,880
Speaker 2: people are like, oh my god, I need season two now,

456
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:23,359
Speaker 2: and he's like, well, I love that I need You

457
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 2: also know it took seven years to get this first

458
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 2: season made because he'd been writing it for so long

459
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,880
Speaker 2: and shopping it around until eight twenty four on Amazon

460
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:31,399
Speaker 2: picked it up.

461
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:33,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, so it was on Prime video. It's kind of

462
00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,920
Speaker 1: like an artist who has their entire life to write

463
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 1: their first album, yeah, and then they only have like

464
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 1: a year maybe two years to write their second album.

465
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:43,640
Speaker 1: That's hard though, because it is such a good show

466
00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 1: and it has the momentum, but you think about how

467
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:48,680
Speaker 1: much goes into it. The soundtrack, Yeah, because every whole

468
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,879
Speaker 1: good every episode is the name of a song and

469
00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 1: it takes place. Well, it kind of feels like it's

470
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:56,679
Speaker 1: modern day, but if you pay attention to it, it

471
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,320
Speaker 1: feels like the early twenty tens.

472
00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:00,440
Speaker 2: I think it that's when he was in college. Okay,

473
00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 2: because he's my age thirty one. You know how I

474
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 2: pay attention to things whenever something's supposed to be set

475
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 2: in a time period. They were making references to things

476
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 2: that felt modern, like using phrases that we would use now.

477
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 1: But with all the characters and all the music they

478
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:15,840
Speaker 1: were listening to or the movies they were referencing, I'm like, oh,

479
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:17,920
Speaker 1: this is all stuff from like twenty nine.

480
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 2: Even the tie in of like Charlie XX was like

481
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 2: her older song.

482
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:24,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, when boom Clap was out back when I met her.

483
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:26,479
Speaker 2: I think the next day I went to boxing and

484
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,240
Speaker 2: we boxed to boom Clap and I was like, Wow,

485
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:29,959
Speaker 2: It's like one of those things when you pay attention

486
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 2: to something and then you start seeing it everywhere.

487
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 1: I really I really enjoyed it. I thought the writing

488
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 1: was really great, and I'm also just really nostalgic for

489
00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 1: the twenty tens, which I think was the best time

490
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,919
Speaker 1: to be alive. And it reminds me, probably because that's

491
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 1: when I was in college too, and I think just

492
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:49,479
Speaker 1: having something that represents that time. Whenever you're in it,

493
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 1: you don't realize the things you are doing are going

494
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,359
Speaker 1: to be the things people remember about this decade. And

495
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,840
Speaker 1: now you watch that back and you're like, oh, yeah,

496
00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 1: like early social media, how big like go and the

497
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:04,800
Speaker 1: concerts were and being seen by people overall, like relationships

498
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,040
Speaker 1: and the way just culture was at that time. You're like, man,

499
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,119
Speaker 1: twenty tens, that was a time to be alive.

500
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:11,399
Speaker 2: I think my peak not peak, but like my favorite

501
00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 2: was twenty fifteen, twenty sixteen, my senior year. It was

502
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,080
Speaker 2: it was the best time. I took all of my

503
00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:18,880
Speaker 2: classes with my best friend, Like we were the same

504
00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:21,880
Speaker 2: major at the same schedule. We like staggered our classes

505
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,080
Speaker 2: so we only had like Tuesday Thursday, so then we'd

506
00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 2: like walk on Thursdays, talked about the Trude's on campus.

507
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,280
Speaker 2: We would have Margarita's and we'd fill up with the

508
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,120
Speaker 2: free chips it's also for dinner and then we'd walk

509
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,159
Speaker 2: home because we lived near campus and it was just

510
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,360
Speaker 2: the best time. And like twenty six teams when Closer

511
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 2: By the Chainsmokers came out, like nothing will give me

512
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 2: a feeling more than Closer By the Chainsmokers, like just

513
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 2: take me back.

514
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:45,919
Speaker 1: A lot of great movies around that time too, that

515
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,720
Speaker 1: I felt were kind of just core memories as far

516
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 1: as like movies that eventually led to me doing this,

517
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 1: So it was cool to see that represent it represented

518
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:55,159
Speaker 1: in a series.

519
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I loved it. I highly recommend it on Prime.

520
00:20:58,200 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 2: Would you give it five out of five?

521
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:00,720
Speaker 1: Ooh, I've had a five.

522
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:01,439
Speaker 2: I loved it.

523
00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:05,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go. I watched two shows on HBO in May,

524
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 1: and I kind of feel the same way about both

525
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,679
Speaker 1: as far as HBO show is feeling short, which they

526
00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,200
Speaker 1: both had season finales that I did not know were coming.

527
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,560
Speaker 1: It was the Last of Us in the rehearsal, but

528
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:17,160
Speaker 1: that I feel.

529
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 2: Like you just weren't paying attention how many weeks it

530
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,920
Speaker 2: had been on because Last of Us had seven episodes. Yes,

531
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 2: I know White Lotus has had in the past, it

532
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:25,959
Speaker 2: only had eight this season. But I got just typical

533
00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:26,920
Speaker 2: HBO show, and.

534
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 1: I feel like that's not enough episodes.

535
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:31,399
Speaker 2: Well, I agree, but it was just so funny that

536
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 2: you were like flabbergout.

537
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:34,240
Speaker 1: I was like, how is this a finale?

538
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:36,120
Speaker 2: I was a cow many episodes, expecting you to say

539
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 2: like four and you're like seven. I was like, that's

540
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:38,439
Speaker 2: an HBO season.

541
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:41,120
Speaker 1: It's because they came out. They both aired on Memorial

542
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:42,960
Speaker 1: Day weekend and I was like, oh, I can actually

543
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 1: watch these live if I want to. And then I

544
00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 1: was like, what time is it air? And they were

545
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:50,120
Speaker 1: like the finale of I'm like the finale, Yeah, you spiraled.

546
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 1: I was like, I was not prepared, Like mentally, I

547
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,439
Speaker 1: was like, how is this story on both of these

548
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 1: shows going to be done on this episode? So I

549
00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:59,119
Speaker 1: just feel as a whole, like, man, we're not getting

550
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,000
Speaker 1: enough episodes. But then going back when you're talking about

551
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:03,679
Speaker 1: with overcompensating, I feel like these shows are just taking

552
00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,440
Speaker 1: more and more to make. They're only eight of those, yeah,

553
00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 1: and they're at a level where it takes almost as long,

554
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 1: if not longer, like it would to take a movie.

555
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:13,359
Speaker 1: But it's a show. And with the show, we were

556
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:16,600
Speaker 1: expecting to have another season at least by the next year.

557
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 1: But it's now like two or three years before we

558
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 1: have to get another one, let me tell you.

559
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:22,880
Speaker 2: On the other hand, Secret Lives of Mormon Wives first

560
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 2: season came out in September. This season came on met

561
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:28,320
Speaker 2: and there were ten episodes and they were draging those

562
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:29,000
Speaker 2: plot lines.

563
00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:30,639
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, is that the one I heard?

564
00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,160
Speaker 2: I ate it up, but they were dragging the plot lines.

565
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 1: So yeah. Overall, I enjoyed the Last of Us Season two.

566
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 1: I thought I was gonna love it because I love

567
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:44,800
Speaker 1: season one. I just felt season one was much more grittier.

568
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 1: This one started to feel more like walking Debtish, which

569
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 1: I'm I'm fatigued on those types of shows, so it

570
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 1: didn't really have a uniqueness to it that I was

571
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,280
Speaker 1: looking for That made it feel like Last of Us.

572
00:22:58,160 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 2: Don't I don't want to be one of the blast

573
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:01,360
Speaker 2: people's I absolutely don't.

574
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would be really bad at it.

575
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:03,520
Speaker 2: No thank you.

576
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:08,120
Speaker 1: I'm like, we gotta not get food from a grocery store. No,

577
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 1: I would not survive.

578
00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:12,040
Speaker 2: I can't online shop and just get things delivered to me.

579
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,159
Speaker 2: I have to like forage, no thank you.

580
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: But a cannibal no, well, cannibalism m'd be interested in.

581
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 2: Somebody's gonna sound like that and it's gonna end up somewhere.

582
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 1: I mean, if it came to it at the end

583
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 1: of the world. I dabble.

584
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 2: It's like that movie was a movie about like the

585
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 2: Argentinian team.

586
00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 1: Oh, Society of the Snow, Society of the Snow.

587
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 2: Society of the Snow.

588
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, Society of the Snow. What I say, Society of

589
00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 1: the Snow. I wasn't airing the Society Society of the Snow.

590
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:48,480
Speaker 2: I couldn't. I couldn't handle the graphic nature of the

591
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:49,480
Speaker 2: cannibalism in that one.

592
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:51,840
Speaker 1: That is the movie that made me realize I could

593
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:53,959
Speaker 1: probably do it. When they start cooking it and it's like,

594
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,879
Speaker 1: stop stall, it probably tastes like chicken. To be honest,

595
00:23:58,280 --> 00:23:59,879
Speaker 1: how would you know you're a vegan? You have a

596
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 1: ten years. I just think humans tastes like chicken. Let's

597
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:09,359
Speaker 1: get a cannibal on the line. But yeah, any hammer, Hey,

598
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 1: I don't think he actually did or did he do

599
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:14,920
Speaker 1: that allegedly? But Last of Us Season two, I would

600
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 1: give it a four out of five. Still, I just

601
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:19,520
Speaker 1: felt kind of dipped in the middle and then blindsided

602
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:23,520
Speaker 1: me with the finale being so soon the rehearsal I

603
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 1: would probably give. I rarely give any show of five

604
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:28,360
Speaker 1: out of five, so I would give it a four

605
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 1: point five out of five. That show is so awkward,

606
00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:34,000
Speaker 1: and again it's again like it probably why I like it.

607
00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 1: Nathan Fielder is a socially awkward guy, and in the

608
00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,040
Speaker 1: first season he was working with a bunch of different

609
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 1: people and having them rehearse big things they had coming

610
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,199
Speaker 1: up in their life that they were anxious about. In

611
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,920
Speaker 1: like the first episode of season one, he's helping out

612
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,719
Speaker 1: somebody with trivia night, and then in this season it's

613
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:55,159
Speaker 1: basically him trying to change the rules and aviation and

614
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:55,879
Speaker 1: make it safer.

615
00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 2: But there was one in the first season where he's

616
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,240
Speaker 2: like helping someone think about raising a child. Then they

617
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,320
Speaker 2: get like a new child, like every couple of days.

618
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,200
Speaker 2: To see the different stages, I think that's the only

619
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:04,920
Speaker 2: episode I've watched.

620
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,400
Speaker 1: And then it just goes layer and layer and gets

621
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,960
Speaker 1: more meta and more meta, until it's like, is this

622
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 1: a show? Is this an experiment? What is going on here?

623
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:15,480
Speaker 1: So it kind of blends the lines of reality. So

624
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:18,359
Speaker 1: it's another show kind of like Friendship where I'm not

625
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:20,879
Speaker 1: exactly sure. I would recommend it even though I really

626
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:23,280
Speaker 1: love it. I just feel like you have to be

627
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 1: into that brand of entertainment and humor to I don't

628
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,399
Speaker 1: want to say enjoy it, but just to appreciate.

629
00:25:29,760 --> 00:25:30,840
Speaker 2: It, to even understand it.

630
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, to understand it. Like if I recommended that to

631
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:35,400
Speaker 1: like my dad or something, he'd be like, I had

632
00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 1: no idea what this is. This is ridiculous.

633
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:40,359
Speaker 2: Speaking of your dad, were you looking for Father's Day

634
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 2: gifts for him on Amazon?

635
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 1: Yeah?

636
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:45,120
Speaker 2: Were you looking for gifts for Mexican dads?

637
00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:49,200
Speaker 1: I google gifts for Mexican dads on Father's Day.

638
00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:51,879
Speaker 2: I went to buy something on Amazon earlier, and because

639
00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:55,240
Speaker 2: you use my account, your search history comes up, and

640
00:25:55,280 --> 00:26:00,280
Speaker 2: it was like hand soap, I bought a hairclip hips

641
00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:01,600
Speaker 2: from Hexecones.

642
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,000
Speaker 1: If you google that, you find that it's a lot

643
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:10,200
Speaker 1: of alcohol based things. There's like a mom white just dads,

644
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,400
Speaker 1: and then some are like oddly like oh, a chili

645
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 1: pepper That's just like I don't think that should be

646
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,920
Speaker 1: in this search. That feels a little racist, and then

647
00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:20,440
Speaker 1: other things. Oh, the funniest part is there were some

648
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 1: things that were like custom, like custom made with your

649
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:25,359
Speaker 1: last week I can't get custom gifts, fir, and I

650
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 1: was like, I can't do that again. Last year, I

651
00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 1: tried to get him a custom hat that was like

652
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 1: his first trucking company that he worked for and his

653
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 1: name on it, and I went to a website I

654
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:39,119
Speaker 1: got it custom made, and they did not send him

655
00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 1: the right hat whatsoever. And it was a reputable website.

656
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,119
Speaker 1: If it was a reputable website, we won't them. And

657
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,120
Speaker 1: instead of sending him one hat like I ordered, they

658
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:49,840
Speaker 1: sent him two different hats that made no sense. One

659
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:53,680
Speaker 1: of them said Angie and his name is Angel, and

660
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:55,920
Speaker 1: he was like, Angie, what is this mean? I think?

661
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 1: The other one said like it.

662
00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,359
Speaker 2: Was like bats or something. It was like purple with

663
00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:00,440
Speaker 2: like bats.

664
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,320
Speaker 1: But even had a word in Spanish. I don't remember

665
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,439
Speaker 1: what it was like it was so or something.

666
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:06,439
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it's bueno.

667
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:07,359
Speaker 1: I'm like bueno.

668
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 2: And he was like it was close enough to where

669
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:12,440
Speaker 2: he was like, I think this is probably what they ordered.

670
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,360
Speaker 1: And that's what made it worse is because he thought

671
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 1: made it even funnier. It's like this has my name

672
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,800
Speaker 1: on it as far as the address, and this one's

673
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,760
Speaker 1: in Spanish and this one's almost my name I'm just

674
00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:25,760
Speaker 1: confused why you would send this to me. And all

675
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:27,400
Speaker 1: I did was just send me a picture of it,

676
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:29,840
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, no, that's not right at all.

677
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 1: And I had to call him and explain. He was like, oh,

678
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:32,399
Speaker 1: that makes more sense.

679
00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 2: And then we also bought him the wrong shoe size

680
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 2: for his birthday, so we didn't really do great on

681
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:37,240
Speaker 2: the gifts.

682
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's why I googled, and particularly ones that

683
00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:47,240
Speaker 1: don't require a size or any customization really limits. Yeah,

684
00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:49,360
Speaker 1: so I'll have to go back to Google to find something.

685
00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,840
Speaker 2: We can't get him a cooler. No, my family loves

686
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,520
Speaker 2: to gift your dad coolers. I think they've gotten him too,

687
00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:55,960
Speaker 2: haven't they.

688
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 1: It's an easy dad gift, like dad to drink beer.

689
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 2: But they've gotten him. Like, what's that one they got him?

690
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:06,080
Speaker 2: It was like a super It did something cool. It

691
00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:08,600
Speaker 2: like had like something on the side or something, you

692
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:09,359
Speaker 2: know what I'm talking about.

693
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:12,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't really know what it is. And as

694
00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:13,960
Speaker 1: a bottle opener, it can play music.

695
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:17,640
Speaker 2: It was something like fancy. And then my grandparents got him.

696
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:20,359
Speaker 2: So that's the other thing. My grandparents love your parents.

697
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 2: When we do a family get together, it's like my parents,

698
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,199
Speaker 2: your parents, your siblings, my brothers, and my grandparents, and

699
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 2: they are obsessed with your parents. And so my grandpa

700
00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:30,480
Speaker 2: was like at Costco one day and sends me this picture.

701
00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,200
Speaker 2: He's like, you think Angel would like this? And it's

702
00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,520
Speaker 2: one of those like metal tubs that you can put

703
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:36,640
Speaker 2: like ic in and beer in. And I was like, yeah,

704
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 2: I think he wouldn't. He like bought it and took

705
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 2: it him the next time you saw him, and.

706
00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 1: He loves it.

707
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:44,040
Speaker 2: But yeah, so so no coolers. That's been overdone, overdone,

708
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 2: but done enough, back to the drawing board. If anyone

709
00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:48,600
Speaker 2: has good gift ideas for gifts from Mexican to ends,

710
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 2: let us know.

711
00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, let me know. We'll wrap it up with your

712
00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 1: book of the month. Easy.

713
00:28:53,520 --> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 2: It was called The Names by Florence Nap. I read

714
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:59,960
Speaker 2: it in forty eight hours. It is this woman who

715
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 2: has a son, and there's a name that her daughter

716
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,040
Speaker 2: wants to name the baby, a name that she wants

717
00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 2: to name the baby, and a name that her husband

718
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,480
Speaker 2: wants to name the baby. So each perspective. So it's

719
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,200
Speaker 2: set in chunks of like seven years, so it's like

720
00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty seven, seven years later, seven years later all

721
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:15,720
Speaker 2: the way through like twenty twenty two, I think. But

722
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 2: it's each chapter in that section is told from the

723
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 2: perspective of the kid if he was named each one

724
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 2: of those different names, and how his life would have

725
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 2: been different. It was so good.

726
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I it would take a lot for me to

727
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 1: want to read a book of that size, But you're

728
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:30,719
Speaker 1: telling me the premise of that. I was like, oh,

729
00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:32,600
Speaker 1: that sounds like a really good book, and even feel

730
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 1: like give us so long. You know how I am

731
00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:34,840
Speaker 1: with books.

732
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 2: It's like three hundred pages.

733
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:38,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's like, my that's like a real book. It

734
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 1: takes a lot for me to read a real book

735
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 1: with three hundred pages.

736
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:42,840
Speaker 2: I wouldn't be surprised if it's on my top ten

737
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 2: of the year.

738
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 1: Would they make a movie?

739
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,080
Speaker 2: I think make a movie of anything these days, but

740
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 2: I think that would be really good.

741
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,240
Speaker 1: I would watch it. Almost sounds like it could be

742
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,720
Speaker 1: a limited series though, like episode by episode, like the

743
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 1: Oh that I feel like it's a limited No.

744
00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:59,520
Speaker 2: Each episode is that seven years? Yeah, and there's like

745
00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 2: twenty minute it's each character.

746
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:02,040
Speaker 1: What would you rate the book?

747
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 2: Five out of five?

748
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 1: Ooh, five out of five. You gonna be on the

749
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,840
Speaker 1: top ten of the year. Possibly, all right, anything else

750
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 1: for everybody. It's our anniversary. This I guess this week.

751
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 1: This comes out on Monday. Happy anniversary, four years married.

752
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 1: We could have graduated college again.

753
00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 2: I just feel like an old married couple at this

754
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,800
Speaker 2: point in a good way. Like it just feels like yeah,

755
00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 2: like I don't at this point, I don't even remember

756
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:25,160
Speaker 2: long distance. I don't remember dating.

757
00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:28,200
Speaker 1: It's just like, oh yeah, yeah, long distance seems like

758
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 1: so long ago. And even you living here feels like

759
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 1: five years. I can't remember you not being here.

760
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:35,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't remember it either.

761
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 1: So happy anniversary.

762
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:38,840
Speaker 2: Thank you. Thank you for my gift that I picked

Speaker 2: on and say you the link too, You're welcome and

764
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 2: then made you let me open three weeks early.

765
00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,040
Speaker 1: Thank you for my gift which came in early and

766
00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:46,680
Speaker 1: you made me open immediately. But I love it.

767
00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:48,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't do well with gifts.

768
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:51,560
Speaker 1: You're like, it came in surprise. Here it is, I

769
00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 1: did do that, but I do love it.

770
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:54,400
Speaker 2: And if you're wondering, it's a purse that I said

771
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,280
Speaker 2: like to. That's usually my go to gift. We're not

772
00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 2: those people that do the like four year I think

773
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,160
Speaker 2: four years is fruit fruit. But people do like really

774
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,840
Speaker 2: like creative interpretations, like I could have gifted you something

775
00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 2: from apple. You know'll do like different interpretations.

776
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:09,920
Speaker 1: Now, like an edible arrangement.

777
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 2: You could do that. I should be better about that,

778
00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:14,160
Speaker 2: Like I know people will like the first year I

779
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:16,680
Speaker 2: think is paper and then it's like cotton. To be honest,

780
00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 2: I just find something I like and send it and say,

781
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 2: this is a great reason to get me a gift.

782
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:26,800
Speaker 1: That works at the universary. Let's get into it now.

783
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 1: A spoiler free movie review of Mission Impossible The Final Reckoning,

784
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 1: which was a bit of a rebrand. It is the

785
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,560
Speaker 1: eighth and final installation in this series, the last time

786
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:41,760
Speaker 1: We're ever gonna see at least allegedly, Tom Cruise play

787
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 1: Ethan Hunt. The movie takes place where the last movie

788
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:48,360
Speaker 1: left off, which was Dead Reckoning Part one. That's why

789
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 1: this movie had a little bit of a rebrand because

790
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 1: that movie ended up underperforming came out at a time

791
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 1: where it was very competitive at the box office. Tom

792
00:31:56,640 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 1: Cruise was also competing for Imax screens because he is

793
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,480
Speaker 1: a big proponent of I got to get these movies

794
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,320
Speaker 1: out in theaters where people can see them and on

795
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,560
Speaker 1: the biggest screen possible because he takes a lot of

796
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:12,320
Speaker 1: pride and what they put on the screen and the

797
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:16,720
Speaker 1: links they go to get these incredibly well crafted and

798
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:20,560
Speaker 1: choreographed action sequences that are really the thing to me

799
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,960
Speaker 1: that make these movies worthwhile to go see in theater.

800
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:25,480
Speaker 1: So that is why I have a bit of a

801
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,960
Speaker 1: I don't love Tom Cruise movies, but I respect what

802
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:32,760
Speaker 1: he's done for the movie industry. In a post COVID world,

803
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:36,320
Speaker 1: if it wouldn't have been for top Gun Maverick, I

804
00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 1: don't know that a lot of theaters would still be here.

805
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:40,920
Speaker 1: So he is still putting out movies that get people

806
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:44,120
Speaker 1: excited to go back to the theater, that keep cinemas alive.

807
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:46,760
Speaker 1: So I like that aspect of it. But when it

808
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:50,120
Speaker 1: comes to what I see as Tom Cruise, the person,

809
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 1: the actor, and overall his work in the last fifteen years,

810
00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:57,200
Speaker 1: I wouldn't call myself the biggest Tom Cruise fan for

811
00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 1: a period of my life. If Tom Cruise was in it,

812
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:01,560
Speaker 1: I would kind of be like, I don't think I

813
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 1: want to watch it because of that. But with the

814
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:07,560
Speaker 1: last movie Dead Recording Part one, I really enjoyed it.

815
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 1: I thought it had some great action, and it had

816
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 1: a moment that was probably a total of five to

817
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,360
Speaker 1: six maybe eight seconds of him jumping off a cliff

818
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:18,560
Speaker 1: on a bike that I felt was the moment of

819
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 1: that movie. And how much work went into getting that

820
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 1: one specific shot I thought made it. And it's him

821
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:29,200
Speaker 1: doing those things that excite me and made me interested

822
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,320
Speaker 1: in going to see how they were going to wrap

823
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:35,320
Speaker 1: up this entire franchise which started back in nineteen ninety six.

824
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,360
Speaker 1: And I was not just a little bit, but kind

825
00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 1: of a lot of bit let down because it just

826
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:43,080
Speaker 1: felt like they were running over the same stuff over

827
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 1: and over again. And in no way should this have

828
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:49,160
Speaker 1: been two movies. This one was almost three hours, say,

829
00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 1: with a one before this, and it was really the

830
00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:55,680
Speaker 1: entire story again what this movie is about. It's Ethan

831
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:58,640
Speaker 1: Hunt and the IMF team. They're on a race against

832
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 1: time to fight this thing called the Entity, which is

833
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:04,560
Speaker 1: essentially this rogue AI that has taken over the world.

834
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 1: It's going to cause a bunch of just chaos and

835
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 1: mayhem and war, and if this thing is not stopped,

836
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:14,919
Speaker 1: we're all not going to be here. So you need

837
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:17,600
Speaker 1: Ethan and his team to stop it. And apparently he's

838
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:19,680
Speaker 1: the only one who can do it by running really

839
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:23,480
Speaker 1: fast and fighting people and getting into situations that only

840
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,600
Speaker 1: he knows how to get out of, apparently. And the

841
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:29,120
Speaker 1: problem I had is overall it was too slow and

842
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:33,399
Speaker 1: too boring, aside from the big action sequences, but even

843
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:35,719
Speaker 1: the problem with those big action sequences in this one

844
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,560
Speaker 1: is while they look really expensive and I'm sure they

845
00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 1: took a long time to film and there was a

846
00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,520
Speaker 1: lot of process that went into it, they spent so

847
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:47,400
Speaker 1: much time setting up all of these big action sequences,

848
00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 1: I felt that's all it was, and the time in

849
00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 1: between all the big moments were boring and slow, and

850
00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:58,200
Speaker 1: my theater and myself just became restless because it was

851
00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:02,920
Speaker 1: a lot of exposition, not a lot of action, especially

852
00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:05,360
Speaker 1: just because it was retreading everything that happened in the

853
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:08,719
Speaker 1: first one. Because I really hate the trend of splitting

854
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,440
Speaker 1: up the last movie in a franchise into two parts.

855
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 1: It is just everybody seems to do it now because

856
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:17,800
Speaker 1: you film one big movie and you think if you

857
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:19,760
Speaker 1: put it out into two parts, you can make double

858
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 1: the money. I just find it really annoying and cash gravy,

859
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:26,840
Speaker 1: especially because now two parts feel very incomplete, and that

860
00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:30,960
Speaker 1: is how this movie started, where they started telling you

861
00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,080
Speaker 1: and reminding you all the things that happened in the

862
00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,360
Speaker 1: part before this, because just in case you didn't see it,

863
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,279
Speaker 1: or in case you forgot about it already, they have

864
00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 1: to remind you. If you are a big fan of

865
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:42,879
Speaker 1: the franchise and you like sitting down and watching all

866
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,520
Speaker 1: of them back to back to back, it's gonna be

867
00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:47,399
Speaker 1: so annoying by the time you get to this point

868
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,960
Speaker 1: where they're just reverencing things that have happened all throughout

869
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:53,240
Speaker 1: the series. I don't like all the callbacks at the beginning.

870
00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:57,319
Speaker 1: It was really disorienting and overall just really boring. And

871
00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,800
Speaker 1: the problem I had with the story here is that

872
00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:02,080
Speaker 1: it didn't create a sense of urgency like it did

873
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 1: in Part one. It just kind of felt like it

874
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:06,959
Speaker 1: was there, and they were really trying hard to make

875
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:10,880
Speaker 1: an emotional finale for Ethan Hunt. That's really what this was,

876
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,600
Speaker 1: him and the team all doing it one last time,

877
00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:16,800
Speaker 1: him telling his crew like one last time, I'm not

878
00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 1: to ride with me, or something like that. And I

879
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:23,000
Speaker 1: feel like this franchise has lived different lives throughout one

880
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,960
Speaker 1: through three. I kind of see that as a trilogy.

881
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:28,680
Speaker 1: Those carried over into the two thousands, and in the

882
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,320
Speaker 1: twenty tens, I almost feel like they became this entirely

883
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:35,080
Speaker 1: different franchise where the story got better. At least, it

884
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:38,480
Speaker 1: got a little bit more cohesive, it formed its identity

885
00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 1: a little bit more. It also kind of went the

886
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:42,879
Speaker 1: way of, Okay, we have the franchise this thing. Now

887
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 1: we have a formula that we have to follow to

888
00:36:45,760 --> 00:36:48,600
Speaker 1: make a mission impossible movie. You throw in all the

889
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:52,520
Speaker 1: stelf destructing messages. And that was really in the twenty tens,

890
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:56,640
Speaker 1: where Tom Cruise became even more obsessed with doing his

891
00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:59,800
Speaker 1: own stunts, with breaking his ankle, jumping from one building

892
00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:02,200
Speaker 1: to another. But I really feel like the apex of

893
00:37:02,200 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 1: that was in Dead Reckoning Part one. That is where

894
00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:08,239
Speaker 1: the good stuff was. That is where just the beautifully

895
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:12,080
Speaker 1: shot moments were that I say, we're even Oscar worthy

896
00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:15,040
Speaker 1: and the final Reckoning just felt like the falling action

897
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:18,960
Speaker 1: the entire time, And that was just really hard for

898
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 1: me to sink my teeth into and really ride this

899
00:37:22,239 --> 00:37:25,160
Speaker 1: wave of I want to see how this is all

900
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:28,319
Speaker 1: gonna play out, and I didn't really care what was

901
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:31,640
Speaker 1: gonna happen to Ethan Hunt's character, and I love finales

902
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:33,880
Speaker 1: when it comes to TV shows. I will watch the

903
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:36,759
Speaker 1: finale of a TV show even if I haven't seen

904
00:37:36,760 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 1: all the seasons, just because I want to know, Oh,

905
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:40,439
Speaker 1: how are they going to wrap this thing up? Will

906
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,680
Speaker 1: it hit me emotionally if I am not aware of

907
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:45,800
Speaker 1: all these things that have gone on with all these characters.

908
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:49,359
Speaker 1: And I love a finale of a movie franchise even

909
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:53,360
Speaker 1: more because it is very monumental to take this story,

910
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:55,720
Speaker 1: to take Ethan Hunt, who has been around since the nineties,

911
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 1: who has been around almost my entire life. I remember

912
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:02,320
Speaker 1: these movies being so in packful as a kid, iconic

913
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:05,960
Speaker 1: moments throughout its entire run. But this just wasn't it.

914
00:38:05,960 --> 00:38:08,840
Speaker 1: It lacked that feeling, It lacked that emotion, It lacked

915
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:12,759
Speaker 1: that creativity, It lacked that finality. It didn't really feel

916
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:16,480
Speaker 1: like this was okay. I am. Well, You're never gonna

917
00:38:16,520 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 1: be completely satisfied with the ending to anything. There's always

918
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:23,400
Speaker 1: gonna be things unsaid, There's always gonna be better ways

919
00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:26,600
Speaker 1: to wrap it up. But as long as I feel satisfied,

920
00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 1: I think that is as good of a job as

921
00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:32,319
Speaker 1: you can do as a filmmaker. But in no way

922
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:34,840
Speaker 1: did I really feel satisfied, because it felt like this

923
00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:37,799
Speaker 1: movie was playing it safe from beginning to end. Now,

924
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,600
Speaker 1: they did give us some good action moments, I think

925
00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:43,040
Speaker 1: the scene with the airplanes that you probably saw in

926
00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:46,279
Speaker 1: the trailer, but even that didn't hit the same way

927
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:49,280
Speaker 1: that some of the action sequences have in previous films.

928
00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:52,400
Speaker 1: They've gone to greater links, So this entire film just

929
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:55,560
Speaker 1: kind of felt like it was all the extra scenes

930
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:57,840
Speaker 1: that didn't work in anything else that they had done.

931
00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:00,640
Speaker 1: What I am excited for is Tom to move on

932
00:39:00,680 --> 00:39:03,520
Speaker 1: from Mission Impossible. I don't know exactly what he's going

933
00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:06,160
Speaker 1: to do next, or even if this franchise is really

934
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 1: good to be dead, because he says that, But if

935
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,719
Speaker 1: they come a knock in with another idea and they

936
00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:14,360
Speaker 1: pay him enough money, I could actually see the rumor

937
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,160
Speaker 1: coming to life of Glenn Powell taking over the franchise,

938
00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:20,879
Speaker 1: and maybe even not him fully. But you start kind

939
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:25,399
Speaker 1: of rotating who these movies are about, and then eventually

940
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:29,600
Speaker 1: Tom Cruise comes back as Ethan Hunt, and maybe three

941
00:39:29,680 --> 00:39:31,960
Speaker 1: or four movies down the line where that feels a

942
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:35,440
Speaker 1: little bit more impactful, much like Robert Donney Jr. Returning

943
00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:39,520
Speaker 1: to the MCU. Tom Cruise at his age in his sixties,

944
00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:42,600
Speaker 1: still loves doing these big action movies, So I have

945
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,520
Speaker 1: to imagine another Top Gun movie is on the way,

946
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,520
Speaker 1: kind of in that same style of him just seeking

947
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:53,600
Speaker 1: that adrenaline. There is serious talks now of him reviving

948
00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:57,279
Speaker 1: his character from Tropic Thunder, So I think he's in

949
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,520
Speaker 1: a position where he's just gonna do movies where he

950
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,479
Speaker 1: wants to have fun. Hopefully he wants something a little

951
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:04,600
Speaker 1: bit less demanding, because when is the last time you

952
00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:07,520
Speaker 1: saw Tom Cruise in a straight ahead drama, in a

953
00:40:07,600 --> 00:40:12,160
Speaker 1: rom com or something that maybe earned him an Oscar nomination.

954
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:14,400
Speaker 1: I feel like he does want to get back to

955
00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:17,760
Speaker 1: that at some point, and maybe he has this pressure

956
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:21,400
Speaker 1: on him or feels a need because of his status

957
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:24,760
Speaker 1: as one of the last standing just A plus movie

958
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,400
Speaker 1: stars that can really influence people to go out and

959
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:29,840
Speaker 1: pay their hard earned money to spend on a ticket

960
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:32,520
Speaker 1: to go see something in theaters. He feels the need

961
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:35,560
Speaker 1: to create these summer blockbusters, and that if you went

962
00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:37,799
Speaker 1: and just did a drama, did something like rain Man,

963
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:41,160
Speaker 1: did something a little bit more straightforward, it would be

964
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:43,480
Speaker 1: harder for him to promote because this has kind of

965
00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:47,200
Speaker 1: been his identity now for over a decade where he's

966
00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:49,880
Speaker 1: really just like, here's all these crazy action moments, you

967
00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:52,200
Speaker 1: gotta go see them in the big screen. You gotta

968
00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:55,840
Speaker 1: go eat your popcorn really aggressively like he does. Maybe

969
00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:59,360
Speaker 1: there's just some kind of pressure there, or that's what

970
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:02,560
Speaker 1: he wants his legacy to be, knowing that he's not

971
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:05,879
Speaker 1: going to be able to do these roles forever. He's

972
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:07,719
Speaker 1: going to get to a point where he can't meet

973
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:10,040
Speaker 1: the demands of an action role like this, which he

974
00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,440
Speaker 1: still looked really good in this movie. There were a

975
00:41:12,520 --> 00:41:15,799
Speaker 1: lot of moments where there was a lot of shirtless

976
00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:19,279
Speaker 1: Tom Cruise, Tom Cruise in his underwear running on a treadmill,

977
00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:21,920
Speaker 1: and I think that was also him like saying, hey,

978
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:24,719
Speaker 1: look I still look good. I still got it. It

979
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,120
Speaker 1: just really didn't feel like the ending to me that

980
00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:29,840
Speaker 1: started back in nineteen ninety six. It feels more like

981
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:33,080
Speaker 1: the ending of the era that started in twenty eleven.

982
00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:35,960
Speaker 1: And I knew I wasn't heavily invested in it when

983
00:41:35,960 --> 00:41:38,680
Speaker 1: we got to that hour mark, and I was already wondering,

984
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:40,680
Speaker 1: when is this thing going to be over? And by

985
00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:42,360
Speaker 1: the time we got to the two hour mark, I

986
00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:44,359
Speaker 1: was ready to get out of there because I now

987
00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:47,279
Speaker 1: spent almost six hours on the same plot, and I

988
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:49,200
Speaker 1: was ready to move on. I was about to take

989
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,040
Speaker 1: ethan Hunt out myself. And some people might say, oh,

990
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,960
Speaker 1: you just don't like long movies. I love long movies.

991
00:41:55,040 --> 00:41:58,000
Speaker 1: I have been a long proponent of three hour runtimes.

992
00:41:58,040 --> 00:42:00,840
Speaker 1: I want to see the Brutallest that was three and

993
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:03,880
Speaker 1: a half hours with the intermission. I am not against

994
00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:07,080
Speaker 1: long run times. I highly encourage it, especially when it

995
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:10,160
Speaker 1: goes to streaming at home, because you can take it

996
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:12,120
Speaker 1: in how you want. Three and a half hour movie,

997
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:14,800
Speaker 1: break it up into thirty forty five minute increments, and

998
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:17,799
Speaker 1: suddenly it is a limited series, which most people have

999
00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:21,560
Speaker 1: no problem binging a limited series in a weekend because

1000
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:24,799
Speaker 1: the nice little digestible portions for you. Do that with

1001
00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:27,719
Speaker 1: the three hour movie and you'll still find it really enjoyable.

1002
00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,840
Speaker 1: Is just when something does become three hours, you already

1003
00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:33,160
Speaker 1: have to set this expectation of, Okay, this is going

1004
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:35,040
Speaker 1: to be an investment, no matter what. I do. Have

1005
00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:37,759
Speaker 1: to judge this a little bit differently, because if you

1006
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,359
Speaker 1: are telling me that you needed three hours to tell

1007
00:42:40,400 --> 00:42:43,600
Speaker 1: your story, I'll accept that. I'll go watch that, but

1008
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:46,320
Speaker 1: if at any point I feel that that three hours

1009
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:49,360
Speaker 1: is unearned and I check out, then you're kind of

1010
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:51,440
Speaker 1: in the world to hurt there. Needless to say, the

1011
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:54,040
Speaker 1: movie still did really well at the box office. Even

1012
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:57,320
Speaker 1: though it couldn't beat My Boy's Stitch in opening weekend,

1013
00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:00,640
Speaker 1: it was still a best for the French and I

1014
00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:03,680
Speaker 1: think the more hardcore fans of this franchise were saying

1015
00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 1: this was a five out of five, a four point

1016
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 1: five out of five. A lot of film bros were

1017
00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:09,880
Speaker 1: really just gung ho about this movie, so much so

1018
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:12,400
Speaker 1: that I thought, what am I missing here? And I

1019
00:43:12,440 --> 00:43:15,000
Speaker 1: know some of those people are probably watching or listening

1020
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:16,680
Speaker 1: now and I'm going to feel the heat for this,

1021
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:19,360
Speaker 1: But I am okay with that. I still went to

1022
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:21,720
Speaker 1: see it. Would I still go watch another one? Yeah,

1023
00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:24,640
Speaker 1: because I still think these movies are entertaining and really

1024
00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:27,640
Speaker 1: benefit from that in theater experience. Where we went to

1025
00:43:27,640 --> 00:43:30,320
Speaker 1: see it opening weekend and the entire theater was full,

1026
00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:33,600
Speaker 1: I would say, pretty close to sold out on opening night.

1027
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:36,839
Speaker 1: That is a feat in itself, so I do give

1028
00:43:36,880 --> 00:43:39,440
Speaker 1: it bonus points for actually getting people out into the

1029
00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:42,920
Speaker 1: theater for performing better than the movie that came before it,

1030
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:46,120
Speaker 1: but still just wasn't quite it for me. I give

1031
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:49,640
Speaker 1: Mission Impossible the Final Reckoning three point five out of

1032
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:57,600
Speaker 1: five self destructing messages. It's time to head down to movie.

1033
00:43:57,640 --> 00:44:02,280
Speaker 1: Mike Trey Lar pau Leanu Reeves out here doing side quests.

1034
00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:06,160
Speaker 1: He's one of the biggest actors who just randomly will

1035
00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:08,879
Speaker 1: do a movie that makes you go ha, and then

1036
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:10,760
Speaker 1: you watch a trailer and you're like, oh, that actually

1037
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:12,960
Speaker 1: makes a lot of sense. It's him and Nicholas Cage

1038
00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:14,600
Speaker 1: that they can.

1039
00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:17,120
Speaker 3: Do it really serious or even just a really big

1040
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:21,120
Speaker 3: blockbuster movie like a John Wick and then come out

1041
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:25,840
Speaker 3: with a movie that you're like, hmm, they do this

1042
00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:29,200
Speaker 3: as a favor, but somehow I'm so interested in this.

1043
00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:32,920
Speaker 1: Keanu Reeves plays a guardian angel in a movie coming

1044
00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:36,560
Speaker 1: out called Good Fortune. It is written and directed by

1045
00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:40,120
Speaker 1: Azi's I'm Sorry. It also stars Seth Rogan. What the

1046
00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:42,640
Speaker 1: movie is about? Keanu Reeves plays a well meaning but

1047
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:45,880
Speaker 1: rather a nept angel named Gabriel who just wants to

1048
00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:48,160
Speaker 1: make a difference in the world. So he sees this

1049
00:44:48,200 --> 00:44:51,279
Speaker 1: struggling gig worker played by Aziz I Sorry, who is

1050
00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:54,359
Speaker 1: kind of lost in life and wants to help him out,

1051
00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:57,239
Speaker 1: and tries to prove to him that, well, if you

1052
00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:00,239
Speaker 1: had money, it wouldn't really solve all your problems, So

1053
00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:03,200
Speaker 1: let me prove it to you by making you switch

1054
00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:07,120
Speaker 1: bodies with a really wealthy venture capitalist played by Seth Rogen.

1055
00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:09,200
Speaker 1: But then it turns out it kind of does solve

1056
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:10,400
Speaker 1: all of his problems.

1057
00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:11,120
Speaker 2: I like the.

1058
00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 1: Premise, even though it's not the most original thing I've

1059
00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:16,640
Speaker 1: ever seen. I could compare it to three movies right now,

1060
00:45:17,000 --> 00:45:19,799
Speaker 1: but I think I think this just might work. It's

1061
00:45:19,840 --> 00:45:23,480
Speaker 1: coming out in theaters on October seventeenth. Before I get

1062
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:26,200
Speaker 1: into more about good Fortune, here's just a little bit

1063
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:30,359
Speaker 1: of the trailer. Martha. Yes, Gabriel, is there any way

1064
00:45:30,400 --> 00:45:33,440
Speaker 1: I can have more meaningful duties? I want to guide people.

1065
00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:35,279
Speaker 1: I want to change their lives.

1066
00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:38,200
Speaker 2: To save a lost soul, that to find a loss soul.

1067
00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:43,160
Speaker 1: Arch. I'm an angel. My name is Gabriel. I'm here

1068
00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:47,520
Speaker 1: to save you. What who the fuck are you? How

1069
00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:48,239
Speaker 1: do you know my name?

1070
00:45:49,239 --> 00:45:52,200
Speaker 2: I'm normally only in charge of saving people from texting

1071
00:45:52,239 --> 00:45:58,080
Speaker 2: and driva. Wait, you're telling me I have a budget

1072
00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:00,840
Speaker 2: guardian angel kind of I think.

1073
00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:02,959
Speaker 1: The two of them look really great together. Most people

1074
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:05,720
Speaker 1: are probably seeing this as a Keanu Reeves movie because

1075
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:07,799
Speaker 1: he is such a huge movie star coming off of

1076
00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 1: the John Wick franchise. I am seeing this as an

1077
00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:13,960
Speaker 1: ausis on Sorry movie because I've been a huge fan

1078
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:17,319
Speaker 1: of his. I've always loved his comedy. I think most

1079
00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:20,400
Speaker 1: people still associate him with Parks and Rec. And as

1080
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:22,840
Speaker 1: much as I love that show, I was such a

1081
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:26,000
Speaker 1: huge fan of his that I don't even associate him

1082
00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:28,440
Speaker 1: as the guy from Parks and Rec. Because I used

1083
00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:30,960
Speaker 1: to watch all of his stand up specials, and when

1084
00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:33,239
Speaker 1: it comes to his TV roles, he hasn't even done

1085
00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:36,080
Speaker 1: a whole lot of those in a long time. Really.

1086
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:38,840
Speaker 1: The last major thing he did was Master of None

1087
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:43,120
Speaker 1: on Netflix, which did get two seasons. First season was fantastic,

1088
00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:46,120
Speaker 1: the second season was a good follow up, and then

1089
00:46:46,200 --> 00:46:49,959
Speaker 1: kind of fell off. They did another mini series under

1090
00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:52,319
Speaker 1: the same umbrella of Master and None, but really we

1091
00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:55,080
Speaker 1: only got two seasons of that show. He went through

1092
00:46:55,120 --> 00:46:58,120
Speaker 1: some personal stuff dealing with things in the news, and

1093
00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:00,880
Speaker 1: then he was gonna make another movie back in twenty

1094
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:04,560
Speaker 1: twenty two called Being Mortal that starred Bill Murray, but

1095
00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:07,680
Speaker 1: then Bill Murray God accuses himself, so that movie got shelved,

1096
00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:10,880
Speaker 1: never came out, and now this is finally going to

1097
00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:14,600
Speaker 1: be his directorial debut, and it probably also means a

1098
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:16,360
Speaker 1: lot to him that he also wrote the script for

1099
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:19,080
Speaker 1: this movie. So getting back to the plot, it all

1100
00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:22,640
Speaker 1: centers around Gabriel, who one day notices this man down

1101
00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:25,080
Speaker 1: on his luck. Aziz On Sorry plays a guy who

1102
00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:28,279
Speaker 1: has hit rock bottom. He is at a Denny's restaurant

1103
00:47:28,560 --> 00:47:31,000
Speaker 1: and he gets his car Toad, and that is where

1104
00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:33,839
Speaker 1: Keanu Reeves's character shows up trying to help him out.

1105
00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:36,040
Speaker 1: He finds out he's working for Seth Rogan doing all

1106
00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:39,319
Speaker 1: these random jobs, and he's trying to convince him that hey,

1107
00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:42,279
Speaker 1: even if you had all of your boss's money, it

1108
00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:46,640
Speaker 1: wouldn't make you any happier. So as an angel, he says, well,

1109
00:47:46,719 --> 00:47:49,399
Speaker 1: let's make you two swap bodies and see what happens. Well,

1110
00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:52,680
Speaker 1: it turns out having Seth Rogan's character's money actually does

1111
00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:56,520
Speaker 1: solve all of his problems. So Gabriel loses his wings

1112
00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:59,000
Speaker 1: and is sent down to Earth to live among the humans.

1113
00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:02,520
Speaker 1: And now as On's character takes over Seth Rogan's body

1114
00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:05,080
Speaker 1: and just gets to live as him now, so a

1115
00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:08,640
Speaker 1: classic body swap movie which has been done before, so

1116
00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:12,360
Speaker 1: it's not like this plot is entirely original. It even

1117
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:14,840
Speaker 1: reminds me of one of my favorite body swap and

1118
00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:18,520
Speaker 1: also Guardian Angel movies, Down to Earth with Chris Rock.

1119
00:48:18,560 --> 00:48:20,839
Speaker 1: And the reason I see parallels between these two movies,

1120
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:22,640
Speaker 1: which Down to Earth came out back in two thousand

1121
00:48:22,680 --> 00:48:25,000
Speaker 1: and one, and it's just one of those movies from

1122
00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:27,359
Speaker 1: the two thousands I felt it should have been a hit.

1123
00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:30,359
Speaker 1: That movie is about Chris Rock's character who plays an

1124
00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:33,920
Speaker 1: amateur comedian. I see the parallels between him and a

1125
00:48:34,080 --> 00:48:37,960
Speaker 1: zi'son Sorry in real life. And Chris Rock is another

1126
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:41,120
Speaker 1: one of those people who fantastic comedian has had so

1127
00:48:41,239 --> 00:48:44,440
Speaker 1: much success, but when it comes to his movies, hasn't

1128
00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:46,920
Speaker 1: really mirrored that same success. Even though I love Down

1129
00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:49,880
Speaker 1: to Earth, I love Top Five. He's done some pretty

1130
00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:52,600
Speaker 1: good work in the Gronos movies. You just don't really

1131
00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:55,919
Speaker 1: see Chris Rock and consider him to be a movie star.

1132
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:58,640
Speaker 1: But in Down to Earth he plays a guy who

1133
00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:01,319
Speaker 1: dies at a point in his life where he thinks

1134
00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:04,319
Speaker 1: it is not my time. He convinces an angel that hey,

1135
00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:06,440
Speaker 1: you guys have made a mistake here. I need to

1136
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:09,799
Speaker 1: get back down to earth. So they're like, all right,

1137
00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:11,759
Speaker 1: we'll work out a deal with you. We'll put you

1138
00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:14,960
Speaker 1: in a temporary body for now until maybe we can

1139
00:49:14,960 --> 00:49:16,960
Speaker 1: find you another body. So they put him in the

1140
00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:19,719
Speaker 1: body of a rich white guy, and suddenly he is

1141
00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:23,000
Speaker 1: Chris Rock, acting the same way he was before, but

1142
00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:24,919
Speaker 1: now in the body of a guy whose wife tried

1143
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:26,960
Speaker 1: to kill him, and he gets to do all the

1144
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:29,480
Speaker 1: things that he thinks he needed money to do, but

1145
00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:32,200
Speaker 1: he's still also trying to do comedy. So there's some

1146
00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:34,880
Speaker 1: great moments in that. There's a little bit of love

1147
00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:37,960
Speaker 1: and heartfelt moments, but overall, I think the movie just

1148
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:40,920
Speaker 1: didn't resonate with audiences, and maybe only resonated with me.

1149
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:43,719
Speaker 1: But that is an underrated movie of the two thousands,

1150
00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:47,560
Speaker 1: in my opinion, and Good Fortune really reminds me of that.

1151
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:50,640
Speaker 1: So a lot of people have this question, why don't

1152
00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:54,320
Speaker 1: they make movies like this anymore, referring to nostalogic movies

1153
00:49:54,680 --> 00:49:56,920
Speaker 1: that we all grew up loving that maybe weren't the

1154
00:49:56,960 --> 00:50:00,720
Speaker 1: best reviewed, maybe even are considered box offic off his bombs,

1155
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:03,360
Speaker 1: but they are movies that we cherish. They are cult classics.

1156
00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:06,720
Speaker 1: This feels like one of those movies, and it's maybe

1157
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:08,920
Speaker 1: one that's not gonna get a whole lot of attention.

1158
00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:12,239
Speaker 1: Where this movie might be able to strike wile the

1159
00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:15,520
Speaker 1: iron is hot is the fact that, of course you

1160
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:18,640
Speaker 1: have your big star Keanu Reeves, but also it's coming

1161
00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:21,640
Speaker 1: out on October seventeenth, which having a movie like this

1162
00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:24,720
Speaker 1: come out in October, that's not a horror movie. Counter

1163
00:50:24,760 --> 00:50:28,200
Speaker 1: program the horror. You beat all the Thanksgiving movies and

1164
00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:31,279
Speaker 1: definitely beat all the Christmas movies. And I just hate

1165
00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:33,120
Speaker 1: the fact that a lot of people are gonna watch

1166
00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:35,799
Speaker 1: this trailer, hear the plot and think, oh, that's just

1167
00:50:35,840 --> 00:50:39,000
Speaker 1: a streaming movie. If we want more movies like this

1168
00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:41,800
Speaker 1: that remind us of the good old days, we gotta

1169
00:50:41,840 --> 00:50:44,160
Speaker 1: go support them when they are out in theaters. I'm

1170
00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:47,759
Speaker 1: talking movies like Good Fortune, movies like Friendship, movies like

1171
00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:50,919
Speaker 1: Riff Raff from earlier this year. I love everything about

1172
00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:53,799
Speaker 1: it so far, even though I might be having a

1173
00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:57,239
Speaker 1: little bit of Seth Rogan fatigue. Maybe that's because I'm

1174
00:50:57,239 --> 00:51:00,960
Speaker 1: coming off the studio and all of his recent projects

1175
00:51:01,040 --> 00:51:03,400
Speaker 1: just kind of feel like it's Seth Rogan playing himself

1176
00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:07,120
Speaker 1: over and over again, and maybe that is the secret

1177
00:51:07,160 --> 00:51:09,520
Speaker 1: formula for him, Like I know how to play this role,

1178
00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:13,560
Speaker 1: and maybe that's exactly what this movie needs. But it

1179
00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:16,000
Speaker 1: just kind of feels like he's showing up in these

1180
00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:19,680
Speaker 1: projects and just being his exact same self, and sometimes

1181
00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:22,520
Speaker 1: just the characters that he plays and the situations that

1182
00:51:22,560 --> 00:51:25,799
Speaker 1: he is in I find really annoying. But is that

1183
00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:28,560
Speaker 1: him just being a good actor? If he is meant

1184
00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:32,120
Speaker 1: to play an annoying actor doing things that irritate you,

1185
00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:34,880
Speaker 1: is it getting its point across? Is he really just

1186
00:51:35,000 --> 00:51:37,400
Speaker 1: doing his job Because it's a lot to invoke an

1187
00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:40,440
Speaker 1: emotion like that, So maybe he's just really good at it.

1188
00:51:40,480 --> 00:51:43,239
Speaker 1: But I kind of just want a different look at him.

1189
00:51:43,560 --> 00:51:46,040
Speaker 1: Even talking about movies that Azielnsari has been in, one

1190
00:51:46,040 --> 00:51:48,040
Speaker 1: of them was Funny People, which was a big movie

1191
00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:51,080
Speaker 1: for Seth Rogan that was at a time where he

1192
00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:54,120
Speaker 1: did have a little bit more of an acting profile.

1193
00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:57,000
Speaker 1: As far as I can do these comedies like Knocked Up,

1194
00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:58,960
Speaker 1: but I can also show a little bit of a

1195
00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:00,680
Speaker 1: different side of me where I'm not just playing the

1196
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:03,520
Speaker 1: same character over and over again. Can we get back

1197
00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:06,920
Speaker 1: to that, Seth Rogan? So other movies mentioned that I

1198
00:52:06,920 --> 00:52:08,919
Speaker 1: think you should check out if you want to dive

1199
00:52:08,960 --> 00:52:12,280
Speaker 1: in more to Azieland sorry, or more into body Squat

1200
00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:15,160
Speaker 1: Movies Thirty Minutes or Less, which was based on a

1201
00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:18,520
Speaker 1: true story. It also starts Jesse Eisenberg. He plays a

1202
00:52:18,560 --> 00:52:22,000
Speaker 1: pizza delivery guy who gets a bomb attached to him

1203
00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:24,960
Speaker 1: and then threatened by the people who put the bomb

1204
00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:27,360
Speaker 1: on him, who forced him to go rob a bank.

1205
00:52:27,560 --> 00:52:31,320
Speaker 1: The real life story was wild and tragic. The movie

1206
00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:33,960
Speaker 1: doesn't exactly follow what happened in real life. It's a

1207
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:37,040
Speaker 1: lot more comical and less depressing. But that is a

1208
00:52:37,080 --> 00:52:39,080
Speaker 1: movie from the twenty tens that I feel is also

1209
00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:42,680
Speaker 1: underrated and underappreciated and kind of just went under the radar.

1210
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:45,760
Speaker 1: Moving forward a decade before that, two thousand and Once

1211
00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:47,960
Speaker 1: Down to Earth with Chris Rock. If you want some

1212
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:51,360
Speaker 1: two thousands of nostalgia and a movie you probably couldn't

1213
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:53,800
Speaker 1: do today, check that one out as well, and that'll

1214
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:56,799
Speaker 1: probably que you up for good fortune coming out on

1215
00:52:56,840 --> 00:53:02,760
Speaker 1: October seventeenth. This week's the tention of movie Li Famer

1216
00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:05,560
Speaker 1: Bar and that is goo to do it for another

1217
00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:08,200
Speaker 1: episode here of the podcast. But before I go, I

1218
00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:10,239
Speaker 1: got to give my listeners shout out of the week.

1221
00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:19,279

00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:32,000
Speaker 1: means a lot. This week, I'm actually going over to

1227
00:53:32,080 --> 00:53:35,440
Speaker 1: Facebook and shouting out Vivian Forward as this week's listener

1228
00:53:35,520 --> 00:53:38,359
Speaker 1: shout out who commented on my video where I broke

1229
00:53:38,440 --> 00:53:41,239
Speaker 1: down all of the merch I got from Regal for

1230
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:44,760
Speaker 1: Lilo and Stitch and said the Regal bucket looks so cool.

1231
00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:48,160
Speaker 1: I saw it last week, loved the movie and enjoyed

1232
00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:50,680
Speaker 1: it even with the slight differences in the storyline from

1233
00:53:50,719 --> 00:53:53,360
Speaker 1: the original. Thank you Vivian for that comment. Thank you

1234
00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:56,000
Speaker 1: for sharing that video. There have been so many split

1235
00:53:56,080 --> 00:53:59,560
Speaker 1: feelings on Lilo and Stitch. Surprisingly on Facebook a lot

1236
00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:01,640
Speaker 1: of people. I loved it. When I went over to YouTube,

1237
00:54:01,920 --> 00:54:05,600
Speaker 1: people were dragging me there, calling me out. I haven't

1238
00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:09,080
Speaker 1: seen this many people upset about a family friendly movie

1239
00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:12,520
Speaker 1: in probably ten years, so appreciate that comment. Thank you

1240
00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:15,760
