WEBVTT - Gamebox 1.0 Meets World

0:00:19.560 --> 0:00:23.200
<v Speaker 1>Producer husband of this podcast, Jensen Karb That's Something for

0:00:23.320 --> 0:00:25.480
<v Speaker 1>Us has a TikTok video for us to watch.

0:00:25.960 --> 0:00:29.760
<v Speaker 2>If you had a crush on Rider Strong or Will Friedel,

0:00:30.120 --> 0:00:33.880
<v Speaker 2>you weren't choosing a character, you were choosing your entire

0:00:34.360 --> 0:00:40.320
<v Speaker 2>nineties personality. Rider Strong was the quiet intensity, shy eyes,

0:00:40.920 --> 0:00:44.880
<v Speaker 2>soft voice, the feeling of someone who felt everything too

0:00:44.920 --> 0:00:47.120
<v Speaker 2>deeply but didn't say it out loud.

0:00:47.600 --> 0:00:50.599
<v Speaker 3>Loving him felt private, like you were in.

0:00:50.640 --> 0:00:54.640
<v Speaker 2>On something emotional that no one else fully understood, the

0:00:54.760 --> 0:00:58.600
<v Speaker 2>kind of crush that lived in your journey, not your conversations.

0:00:59.120 --> 0:01:05.040
<v Speaker 2>But then there was Will Freedom, loud, magnetic, impossible to ignore,

0:01:05.480 --> 0:01:08.240
<v Speaker 2>the kind of energy that filled a room before he

0:01:08.360 --> 0:01:13.040
<v Speaker 2>said anything. He made you laugh without trying, made everything

0:01:13.160 --> 0:01:17.000
<v Speaker 2>feel lighter, like life didn't have to be serious.

0:01:16.600 --> 0:01:17.200
<v Speaker 1>All the time.

0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:19.640
<v Speaker 3>Writer made you feel understood.

0:01:20.160 --> 0:01:23.760
<v Speaker 2>Will made you feel alive. If you were torn between

0:01:23.840 --> 0:01:26.960
<v Speaker 2>right or Strong and Will Freedom, you are really only

0:01:27.040 --> 0:01:30.760
<v Speaker 2>torn between two versions of yourself, the one who felt

0:01:30.880 --> 0:01:32.200
<v Speaker 2>everything deeply.

0:01:32.200 --> 0:01:34.360
<v Speaker 3>And the one who just wanted to laugh through.

0:01:35.160 --> 0:01:38.959
<v Speaker 2>Writer was the quiet age, the emotional safety of being

0:01:39.080 --> 0:01:43.520
<v Speaker 2>seen without performing. Will was the spark, the feeling of

0:01:43.560 --> 0:01:48.280
<v Speaker 2>being chosen by joy instead of death. And somehow both

0:01:48.360 --> 0:01:53.320
<v Speaker 2>felt like first love, just in completely different timelines, because

0:01:53.440 --> 0:01:57.240
<v Speaker 2>one stayed in your feelings and one stayed in your memories.

0:01:57.720 --> 0:02:01.600
<v Speaker 2>Comment a blackheart for writer or a laughing face for

0:02:01.720 --> 0:02:04.520
<v Speaker 2>will and let me know in the comments, which one

0:02:04.560 --> 0:02:08.239
<v Speaker 2>did you choose then? And which one would you choose now?

0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:13.320
<v Speaker 1>Wait? Who's winning? Of course?

0:02:13.400 --> 0:02:16.600
<v Speaker 4>I don't know starking joy or starting joy, filling a

0:02:16.680 --> 0:02:18.679
<v Speaker 4>room with emotion when you walk before.

0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:20.880
<v Speaker 5>You even walk in most most people at fifteen didn't

0:02:20.919 --> 0:02:21.280
<v Speaker 5>want that.

0:02:21.600 --> 0:02:23.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't don't. I don't know who this person is

0:02:23.919 --> 0:02:26.280
<v Speaker 1>who's narrating that video, But it very much felt like

0:02:26.520 --> 0:02:30.960
<v Speaker 1>AI text to me, you think, very specifically, yes, because

0:02:31.040 --> 0:02:33.280
<v Speaker 1>it's a lot of big words that kind of didn't

0:02:33.280 --> 0:02:36.000
<v Speaker 1>mean anything that I was like, what this sounds like

0:02:36.040 --> 0:02:39.000
<v Speaker 1>you've created You've asked AI to create a thing for you,

0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:40.679
<v Speaker 1>and it like throws out a lot of words and

0:02:40.720 --> 0:02:42.679
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, I don't, I don't, I don't know or

0:02:42.880 --> 0:02:46.320
<v Speaker 1>he said it very ardently. Yeah, but it felt, you know,

0:02:47.000 --> 0:02:51.080
<v Speaker 1>it felt like AI. It also felt very astrology, you know,

0:02:51.240 --> 0:02:53.240
<v Speaker 1>like you're gonna hear what you want to hear. You're

0:02:53.280 --> 0:02:55.960
<v Speaker 1>gonna hear what you want to hear and because I don't.

0:02:55.800 --> 0:02:56.880
<v Speaker 4>Pull out the birthday's book.

0:02:56.960 --> 0:03:00.280
<v Speaker 1>Writer was the quiet ache, the intensity that only you

0:03:00.320 --> 0:03:05.200
<v Speaker 1>saw privately, the strength of what just like this is babble.

0:03:06.320 --> 0:03:09.600
<v Speaker 5>Criticizing the video of people saying you should be in

0:03:09.600 --> 0:03:10.480
<v Speaker 5>love with Ryder Strong?

0:03:11.760 --> 0:03:16.760
<v Speaker 1>Well, how do you feel about it? Will?

0:03:17.080 --> 0:03:17.440
<v Speaker 3>I feel?

0:03:17.440 --> 0:03:19.799
<v Speaker 5>I think it's a joking fun I think that it's

0:03:20.000 --> 0:03:21.600
<v Speaker 5>the The thing I take away from that is they

0:03:21.639 --> 0:03:23.639
<v Speaker 5>misspell writer and mispronounced for Dell.

0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:24.800
<v Speaker 4>It's my favorite.

0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:26.800
<v Speaker 5>So it's my favorite. It's always R Y d E

0:03:26.960 --> 0:03:28.000
<v Speaker 5>R and freedom.

0:03:28.120 --> 0:03:31.480
<v Speaker 1>But what thesis is that by having a crush on

0:03:31.480 --> 0:03:34.720
<v Speaker 1>one of us it defined your nineties personality? What does

0:03:34.800 --> 0:03:37.720
<v Speaker 1>that mean? What does a nineties personality mean? Is it about?

0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:39.440
<v Speaker 1>Does it mean that this is who you are?

0:03:39.640 --> 0:03:41.800
<v Speaker 3>I think you like it? Different type of guy you

0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:43.240
<v Speaker 3>like it as a kid?

0:03:43.360 --> 0:03:45.600
<v Speaker 5>What type of person were you as a kid where

0:03:45.640 --> 0:03:48.680
<v Speaker 5>it was like if you if you liked right or Strong,

0:03:48.840 --> 0:03:52.000
<v Speaker 5>chances are you were the artsy student who maybe was

0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:54.920
<v Speaker 5>considered a little emo and quiet, and if you liked

0:03:55.280 --> 0:03:57.680
<v Speaker 5>Will then you were more kind of the loud walk

0:03:57.720 --> 0:04:00.000
<v Speaker 5>into the middle of the room, take ownership, make everyone

0:04:00.320 --> 0:04:00.760
<v Speaker 5>that's God.

0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:03.040
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't say that though it's saying that that's what

0:04:03.120 --> 0:04:06.360
<v Speaker 1>you like, it actually is just talking around that. But yes,

0:04:06.440 --> 0:04:08.160
<v Speaker 1>I think that would be a stronger thesis. It's like,

0:04:08.320 --> 0:04:10.839
<v Speaker 1>if you like writer, it means you were and are

0:04:10.920 --> 0:04:12.840
<v Speaker 1>this type of person. If you like will you But

0:04:12.880 --> 0:04:15.040
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't. It's kind of just vaguely hints at that.

0:04:15.360 --> 0:04:17.600
<v Speaker 1>And it's just like, I don't know, people probably liked

0:04:17.640 --> 0:04:20.120
<v Speaker 1>both of us in different ways. It doesn't mean that much.

0:04:20.160 --> 0:04:25.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, weird, but whatever. Yeah, but what about

0:04:25.720 --> 0:04:28.760
<v Speaker 1>if you had a crush on Danielle Fischel and you

0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:31.520
<v Speaker 1>are just the regular person watching boy Girl?

0:04:35.960 --> 0:04:37.680
<v Speaker 4>I am confused.

0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:40.400
<v Speaker 6>We've still at this point other than me saying the music,

0:04:40.960 --> 0:04:43.080
<v Speaker 6>what's up with that music choice?

0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:46.960
<v Speaker 5>There's a gravitas to like a Game of Thrones background.

0:04:47.360 --> 0:04:49.400
<v Speaker 6>I was waiting for it to end with them like

0:04:49.480 --> 0:04:50.800
<v Speaker 6>stabbing the pictures of.

0:04:50.720 --> 0:04:52.200
<v Speaker 1>You and the Allies or something.

0:04:52.279 --> 0:04:54.480
<v Speaker 4>It was like, what is happening? It's very building to

0:04:54.560 --> 0:04:55.560
<v Speaker 4>a horror movie.

0:04:55.760 --> 0:04:58.320
<v Speaker 1>I think it's you know, it's making you feel empowered

0:04:58.440 --> 0:05:02.320
<v Speaker 1>by your crush from forty years ago.

0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:06.719
<v Speaker 4>Made me feel scared from forty years ago. I was like,

0:05:06.760 --> 0:05:09.040
<v Speaker 4>should I not have felt blah? I don't know, it's

0:05:09.160 --> 0:05:10.479
<v Speaker 4>very very interesting.

0:05:11.080 --> 0:05:13.640
<v Speaker 6>I do love those little green screen videos though how

0:05:13.640 --> 0:05:15.120
<v Speaker 6>people are able to do that? I don't know how

0:05:15.120 --> 0:05:17.960
<v Speaker 6>to make those, but TikTok's.

0:05:17.520 --> 0:05:18.719
<v Speaker 1>Right, I can't understand them.

0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:20.560
<v Speaker 4>I mean I don't like it.

0:05:20.600 --> 0:05:22.600
<v Speaker 6>I mean I mean I like it ironically, Like what

0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:24.839
<v Speaker 6>is that his first he started over here and then

0:05:24.880 --> 0:05:26.760
<v Speaker 6>he went over here and holding a tiny mic.

0:05:26.839 --> 0:05:28.800
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know how everybody's holding the tiny mic. Now

0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:31.320
<v Speaker 1>it's like, because you don't need to, you just clip

0:05:31.320 --> 0:05:35.000
<v Speaker 1>it on you. But this denotes authority. Now, yeah, it's

0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:36.400
<v Speaker 1>like the ways to frame it.

0:05:36.279 --> 0:05:37.800
<v Speaker 3>Looks like you're holding a tiny little bug.

0:05:37.839 --> 0:05:39.520
<v Speaker 1>But no, but if you don't have it, it doesn't

0:05:39.520 --> 0:05:40.279
<v Speaker 1>seem like you're.

0:05:40.320 --> 0:05:43.480
<v Speaker 6>Announ It's not about it's an ability, it's exactly actual

0:05:43.520 --> 0:05:49.400
<v Speaker 6>algorithm views. Yes, for whatever reason, the stats show that

0:05:49.480 --> 0:05:52.360
<v Speaker 6>if someone sees somebody holding a microphone, for whatever reason,

0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:54.839
<v Speaker 6>they're more likely to stop and watch what you're seeing.

0:05:54.560 --> 0:05:57.080
<v Speaker 1>To have more authority. I think it totally. It makes

0:05:57.080 --> 0:05:59.920
<v Speaker 1>you seem like you, yeah, are more of the futhoritative

0:06:00.080 --> 0:06:00.560
<v Speaker 1>eyes of.

0:06:00.480 --> 0:06:02.239
<v Speaker 3>The microphone has anything to do with yeah exactly.

0:06:02.320 --> 0:06:05.680
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, see like Danielle's doing it right, whereas like Bob

0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:08.120
<v Speaker 5>Barker back in the day had the long, thin microphone.

0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:10.479
<v Speaker 5>I remember being like, why did you choose that? But

0:06:10.560 --> 0:06:13.120
<v Speaker 5>I loved that little thin wand of a microphone.

0:06:13.160 --> 0:06:13.560
<v Speaker 4>Me too.

0:06:13.839 --> 0:06:16.359
<v Speaker 6>But you know, nothing's ever going to top what we

0:06:16.400 --> 0:06:19.120
<v Speaker 6>call the Britney Spears mic You know that one?

0:06:20.240 --> 0:06:21.520
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I love.

0:06:22.160 --> 0:06:27.520
<v Speaker 1>That's like I'm leading the workout video correct, Yeah, the best. Yeah,

0:06:28.120 --> 0:06:30.479
<v Speaker 1>don't because that means you have to move around like

0:06:30.480 --> 0:06:33.440
<v Speaker 1>you need your hands to do stuff. Yeah, you know, No,

0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:37.040
<v Speaker 1>that doesn't denote authority, no, but not that you're going

0:06:37.080 --> 0:06:40.080
<v Speaker 1>to be working out or singing and dancing, which is yeah,

0:06:40.360 --> 0:06:41.479
<v Speaker 1>but that's not you're saying.

0:06:41.520 --> 0:06:43.320
<v Speaker 3>Britney Spears didn't denote authority.

0:06:43.520 --> 0:06:46.480
<v Speaker 1>She did as a singer or as a dancer, which is.

0:06:46.400 --> 0:06:47.159
<v Speaker 4>What she was doing.

0:06:47.600 --> 0:06:50.240
<v Speaker 6>I also need to be able to imagine what I

0:06:50.279 --> 0:06:53.039
<v Speaker 6>could accomplish if I could just I mean I do.

0:06:53.120 --> 0:06:55.119
<v Speaker 4>I could wear I could clip a microphone on my shirt.

0:06:55.160 --> 0:06:57.280
<v Speaker 6>But like that idea of like I'm going to wash

0:06:57.320 --> 0:06:59.280
<v Speaker 6>the dishes, My grandmother used to have one of those

0:06:59.279 --> 0:07:00.640
<v Speaker 6>that she could wear on her head to talk on

0:07:00.680 --> 0:07:01.920
<v Speaker 6>the phone while she did the dishes.

0:07:02.600 --> 0:07:04.360
<v Speaker 5>But like the full phone, it was one of those

0:07:04.360 --> 0:07:06.320
<v Speaker 5>ones like the entire phone stuck there. We've seen that

0:07:06.320 --> 0:07:09.640
<v Speaker 5>informal full phone. You literally just clipped the thing to

0:07:09.680 --> 0:07:12.320
<v Speaker 5>an actual phone receiver. And it's like people like I

0:07:12.400 --> 0:07:14.920
<v Speaker 5>hear you great bob as They're like, she's doing the dishes,

0:07:14.960 --> 0:07:17.559
<v Speaker 5>but it's a full phone in her thing. Like that's

0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:22.200
<v Speaker 5>I miss that stuff. Minurturisation is no good. I miss

0:07:22.240 --> 0:07:22.640
<v Speaker 5>that stuff.

0:07:22.680 --> 0:07:26.280
<v Speaker 3>So Rider, who did you have a crush on me?

0:07:26.440 --> 0:07:26.720
<v Speaker 5>Or you?

0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:32.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I was always hanging around you, man, you

0:07:32.040 --> 0:07:36.000
<v Speaker 1>were my best friends, so obviously I wanted to be

0:07:36.240 --> 0:07:37.119
<v Speaker 1>more in the free.

0:07:37.360 --> 0:07:40.760
<v Speaker 5>Well wait a second, have we talked about this? Did

0:07:40.800 --> 0:07:43.320
<v Speaker 5>you ever have a crush on Danielle?

0:07:44.200 --> 0:07:47.760
<v Speaker 3>No? No, okay, was never reciprocated ever.

0:07:48.120 --> 0:07:50.240
<v Speaker 1>No, we had this whole conversation because I said that

0:07:50.280 --> 0:07:50.880
<v Speaker 1>to Rachel.

0:07:51.400 --> 0:07:53.240
<v Speaker 3>Yes, no, I remember that, but I was murdered.

0:07:53.320 --> 0:07:54.920
<v Speaker 1>But I do think. I do think Danielle and I

0:07:54.920 --> 0:07:56.520
<v Speaker 1>spent a lot of time to get out around that

0:07:56.520 --> 0:07:58.880
<v Speaker 1>period when I was with Rachel. But I don't think

0:07:58.880 --> 0:08:01.480
<v Speaker 1>I entertained the possiblit because I was in a relationship.

0:08:01.480 --> 0:08:03.840
<v Speaker 1>But that was like the period where we were best

0:08:03.880 --> 0:08:06.480
<v Speaker 1>friends and spending every day together and because.

0:08:06.280 --> 0:08:09.200
<v Speaker 5>I could draft after Rachel you never in your mind,

0:08:09.240 --> 0:08:10.760
<v Speaker 5>never after the idea.

0:08:10.560 --> 0:08:12.560
<v Speaker 1>After that, like when we were by the time we

0:08:12.600 --> 0:08:15.160
<v Speaker 1>were seventeen, Danielle and I were not getting along actively,

0:08:15.280 --> 0:08:17.840
<v Speaker 1>like not liking each other until near the end of

0:08:17.840 --> 0:08:20.040
<v Speaker 1>the show we like became friends again.

0:08:20.720 --> 0:08:23.640
<v Speaker 3>But no, like Okay, I wouldn't.

<v Speaker 5>That might have been later, I don't remember, but I

0:09:48.520 --> 0:09:50.400

<v Speaker 5>and I was like, I was single and Danielle was single.

0:09:52.200 --> 0:09:53.840
<v Speaker 5>I was like, oh, that might be interesting to entertain.

0:09:54.400 --> 0:09:57.080

<v Speaker 5>There would have been a weirdness to it. And yeah,

0:10:05.120 --> 0:10:06.720
<v Speaker 5>so it was it was more just a fleet.

0:10:06.840 --> 0:10:10.920
<v Speaker 1>Thank god that didn't happen. I mean, unless you guys

0:10:10.880 --> 0:10:13.520
<v Speaker 1>have gotten married and had children, it was wonderful, but

0:10:13.720 --> 0:10:16.160
<v Speaker 1>like chances are would have of course dissolved, and then

0:10:16.200 --> 0:10:18.240
<v Speaker 1>we wouldn't be able to have imagine what this.

0:10:19.760 --> 0:10:21.560
<v Speaker 5>It would have been a whole different podcast, I'm sure

0:10:21.640 --> 0:10:23.720
<v Speaker 5>at that point exactly, and she wouldn't have met Jenson,

0:10:23.760 --> 0:10:25.840
<v Speaker 5>and I wouldn't have met Sue and yeah, we wouldn't

0:10:25.840 --> 0:10:26.400

<v Speaker 6>As teenagers, crushes are flinging.

0:10:55.360 --> 0:10:57.720
<v Speaker 4>They're just flating a mile a minute.

0:10:57.920 --> 0:10:59.000
<v Speaker 3>It's different week by week.

0:10:59.679 --> 0:11:02.640
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, yeah, I mean, And it's so funny how like,

0:11:03.640 --> 0:11:10.360
<v Speaker 6>as as a young person, emotional romantic relationship feelings are

0:11:10.600 --> 0:11:15.559
<v Speaker 6>so front of mind that if you are single, there's never.

0:11:15.360 --> 0:11:17.600
<v Speaker 4>A scenario you're not in where you're like.

0:11:17.880 --> 0:11:24.040
<v Speaker 6>Potential mate, potential mate, just like yeah, and you're like, oh,

0:11:24.040 --> 0:11:26.280
<v Speaker 6>I'm starting a new job, is that guy single? Is

0:11:26.320 --> 0:11:26.720
<v Speaker 6>that guy?

0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:29.760
<v Speaker 4>Like you're literally just thinking about it all the time.

0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:31.679
<v Speaker 1>And it was exhausting.

0:11:32.000 --> 0:11:37.640
<v Speaker 5>It didn't matter what energy I put into presenting myself

0:11:37.760 --> 0:11:40.360
<v Speaker 5>or trying to you know, impress or be.

0:11:40.400 --> 0:11:43.440
<v Speaker 3>Impressed, getting a read just get oh my god, it

0:11:43.920 --> 0:11:46.160
<v Speaker 3>matter what you were doing I'm going to a wedding.

0:11:46.240 --> 0:11:47.520
<v Speaker 3>I'm going here. I have a new job.

0:11:47.559 --> 0:11:49.480
<v Speaker 5>I have to you're thinking to yourself, like I wonder

0:11:49.480 --> 0:11:52.400
<v Speaker 5>if I mean, I wonder that was the whole frontal

0:11:52.480 --> 0:11:53.360
<v Speaker 5>whatever the hell.

0:11:53.280 --> 0:11:55.840
<v Speaker 3>You're doing grocery store. I wonder when I meet somebody.

0:11:55.520 --> 0:11:58.719
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, like any conversation, just like would you like to

0:11:58.760 --> 0:11:59.320
<v Speaker 6>go in front of me?

0:11:59.440 --> 0:12:01.000
<v Speaker 4>That was blow. I don't wonder if he is he's

0:12:01.000 --> 0:12:02.520
<v Speaker 4>trying to handle me. It just doesn't matter.

0:12:02.920 --> 0:12:04.880
<v Speaker 1>But hold on, is this because I feel like this

0:12:04.960 --> 0:12:07.880
<v Speaker 1>is specific to like, because I've definitely noticed even among

0:12:08.000 --> 0:12:11.480
<v Speaker 1>like kids, like among my son and his friends, there

0:12:11.480 --> 0:12:14.160
<v Speaker 1>are some of those kids, boys and girls who are

0:12:14.280 --> 0:12:16.840
<v Speaker 1>just romantically obsessed. They just come out of the womb

0:12:16.880 --> 0:12:19.800
<v Speaker 1>and they're right. And then there's like my son doesn't care.

0:12:20.200 --> 0:12:24.360
<v Speaker 1>He has no romantic feelings at all, never expressed. He's

0:12:24.400 --> 0:12:27.120
<v Speaker 1>expressed one crush in his life and it was like

0:12:27.240 --> 0:12:30.200
<v Speaker 1>years ago and it's just a cockpole days otherwise never

0:12:30.480 --> 0:12:33.199
<v Speaker 1>And it's like, but you see, like there's just distinct personalities.

0:12:33.200 --> 0:12:35.600
<v Speaker 1>There's some people and I was always one of those kids.

0:12:35.840 --> 0:12:37.440
<v Speaker 1>And I feel like, Danielle, you were always one of

0:12:37.440 --> 0:12:40.120
<v Speaker 1>those kids. Will it sounds like you were too. But

0:12:40.160 --> 0:12:42.800
<v Speaker 1>I wonder if other people, like literally didn't have that

0:12:42.880 --> 0:12:43.800
<v Speaker 1>thing that we're talking about.

0:12:44.600 --> 0:12:47.880
<v Speaker 5>Indian friends usually have crushes and girlfriends or boyfriends.

0:12:48.040 --> 0:12:50.040
<v Speaker 1>Yes, there's I would say, it's about fifty to fifty.

0:12:50.040 --> 0:12:51.520
<v Speaker 1>I would say, but there's some of them that are

0:12:51.559 --> 0:12:54.439
<v Speaker 1>just wired for it and they're just and I'm like, oh,

0:12:54.440 --> 0:12:56.960
<v Speaker 1>they are going to have an adolescence like mine where

0:12:56.960 --> 0:12:59.959
<v Speaker 1>they were just either in always in love or fall

0:13:00.200 --> 0:13:04.440
<v Speaker 1>not a love or just love, just rolling, mating was everything.

0:13:04.559 --> 0:13:06.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, Yes, I just think that. Then there's other

0:13:06.440 --> 0:13:08.640
<v Speaker 1>people for whom that's not a concern and it doesn't

0:13:08.640 --> 0:13:10.439
<v Speaker 1>become a thing. And I think those people are probably

0:13:11.440 --> 0:13:12.760
<v Speaker 1>a lot more relaxed.

0:13:12.960 --> 0:13:14.760
<v Speaker 4>So much, I know.

0:13:15.040 --> 0:13:18.480
<v Speaker 6>Can I tell you The other night, Adler as we're

0:13:18.520 --> 0:13:20.840
<v Speaker 6>going to sleep, well he's going to sleep, I'm about

0:13:28.800 --> 0:13:29.720
<v Speaker 6>what do you? What do you mean?

0:13:29.720 --> 0:13:32.760
<v Speaker 4>And he was like, some people at my school smell?

0:13:33.480 --> 0:13:36.040

<v Speaker 6>He's like, oh, they smell good, and he was like yeah,

0:13:45.600 --> 0:13:47.559
<v Speaker 6>and he smells his arm and he goes, I smell

<v Speaker 6>like rotten bananas.

0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:52.320
<v Speaker 4>And I go, well, no, you don't.

0:13:52.400 --> 0:13:55.920
<v Speaker 6>You don't smell like rotten bananas, but like, who smells good?

0:13:56.040 --> 0:13:56.640
<v Speaker 4>Like what would?

0:13:56.640 --> 0:13:58.959
<v Speaker 6>And he was like and then he named a girl

0:14:00.040 --> 0:14:01.599
<v Speaker 6>and I was like okay. And then he named a

0:14:01.640 --> 0:14:03.920
<v Speaker 6>guy and I was like oh. And I was like,

0:14:04.280 --> 0:14:07.920

<v Speaker 6>just whatever you know they wash their clothes in or

0:14:28.280 --> 0:14:30.720
<v Speaker 6>their body in, I said, Or they could be adding

0:14:30.760 --> 0:14:33.440
<v Speaker 6>something to themselves, like a cologne that makes them.

0:14:33.480 --> 0:14:36.760

0:17:02.720 --> 0:17:07.840
<v Speaker 6>And they did both of the Dorm Days movies, and.

0:17:07.800 --> 0:17:09.760
<v Speaker 1>You were in the second one in the.

0:17:09.640 --> 0:17:10.800
<v Speaker 4>First and the second one.

0:17:10.840 --> 0:17:16.000
<v Speaker 6>Oh, I did both Dorm Days movies, and then this

0:17:16.119 --> 0:17:17.080
<v Speaker 6>movie came around.

0:17:17.640 --> 0:17:21.040
<v Speaker 4>I think, actually it's possible this was in between one

0:17:21.080 --> 0:17:22.880
<v Speaker 4>and the case.

0:17:23.160 --> 0:17:26.400
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, so this was after I had done Dorm Day's one.

0:17:26.600 --> 0:17:31.320
<v Speaker 6>I got the opportunity to do this movie. I loved

0:17:31.400 --> 0:17:33.280
<v Speaker 6>video games as a kid. I grew up with the

0:17:33.280 --> 0:17:36.439
<v Speaker 6>original Nintendo, played a bunch of the original Nintendo games.

0:17:36.800 --> 0:17:41.280
<v Speaker 6>At this point, I had already been very into Tiger

0:17:41.320 --> 0:17:45.520
<v Speaker 6>Wood's PGA Golf. I was very in the best along

0:17:45.600 --> 0:17:50.080
<v Speaker 6>with Tony Hawk, pro Skater just obsessed Mortal Kombat.

0:17:51.200 --> 0:17:52.880
<v Speaker 4>So I liked video games.

0:17:53.160 --> 0:18:02.360
<v Speaker 6>I had zero understanding of what the idea was for

0:18:02.400 --> 0:18:05.360
<v Speaker 6>what the graphics were going to look like like what

0:18:06.000 --> 0:18:09.359
<v Speaker 6>just I knew what I had been told was like, oh,

0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:12.600
<v Speaker 6>they showed us, They showed us what it's going to

0:18:12.600 --> 0:18:15.840
<v Speaker 6>be able to look like. It's amazing that.

0:18:16.080 --> 0:18:17.119
<v Speaker 4>We well, it was.

0:18:19.400 --> 0:18:25.439
<v Speaker 6>Amazing if you consider lots of makeup contour to be

0:18:25.520 --> 0:18:26.520
<v Speaker 6>a special effect.

0:18:28.280 --> 0:18:28.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:18:28.720 --> 0:18:35.240
<v Speaker 6>So it was a very short, very short filming process.

0:18:35.280 --> 0:18:37.199
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so I want to hear about how so you

0:18:37.240 --> 0:18:40.280
<v Speaker 1>had done Dorm Day's one. Yeah, by auditioning for it

0:18:40.320 --> 0:18:40.800
<v Speaker 1>and getting the.

0:18:40.800 --> 0:18:45.919
<v Speaker 6>Part they offered each audition I think they offered it

0:18:45.920 --> 0:18:46.119
<v Speaker 6>to me.

0:18:46.960 --> 0:18:49.320
<v Speaker 1>Uh, and you had a good experience on that.

0:18:49.840 --> 0:18:51.720
<v Speaker 4>Yes, I had said, do.

0:18:51.720 --> 0:18:53.840
<v Speaker 1>You want to star in our next movie? So you

0:18:53.840 --> 0:18:55.000
<v Speaker 1>didn't have to audition for this.

0:18:55.440 --> 0:18:57.960
<v Speaker 6>And it's funny because I'm trying to remember how like

0:18:58.119 --> 0:19:00.480
<v Speaker 6>where in the process of Dorm Days it was, because

0:19:00.520 --> 0:19:03.399
<v Speaker 6>one aspect of Dorm Days I did not have a

0:19:03.400 --> 0:19:07.600
<v Speaker 6>good experience in is that you know, the there are

0:19:07.800 --> 0:19:11.240
<v Speaker 6>there are pictures of me on the internet wearing something

0:19:11.720 --> 0:19:15.119
<v Speaker 6>that I would never in a million years have allowed

0:19:15.119 --> 0:19:17.960
<v Speaker 6>anybody to photograph me in. And the only reason I

0:19:18.000 --> 0:19:20.280
<v Speaker 6>was photographed in it was because it was for the

0:19:20.320 --> 0:19:24.719
<v Speaker 6>cover of the Dorm Day's movie, where, in national lampoon style,

0:19:25.240 --> 0:19:29.080
<v Speaker 6>we were all supposed to look naked behind a giant sausage.

0:19:29.200 --> 0:19:31.760
<v Speaker 6>And so they were like, so wear a tube top

0:19:32.119 --> 0:19:35.480
<v Speaker 6>and wear something short, because then we're going to super

0:19:35.560 --> 0:19:38.359
<v Speaker 6>high something hide you behind it, and then we're gonna

0:19:38.359 --> 0:19:40.600
<v Speaker 6>do all these solo shots. And there was it was

0:19:40.600 --> 0:19:43.960
<v Speaker 6>a full, fully disclosed. These pictures aren't going to go anywhere.

0:19:44.000 --> 0:19:44.760
<v Speaker 6>Nobody's ever going.

0:19:44.720 --> 0:19:45.640
<v Speaker 4>To see these photos.

0:19:45.640 --> 0:19:48.800
<v Speaker 6>It's gonna be it's completely So I was wearing like a.

0:19:48.760 --> 0:19:49.840
<v Speaker 4>Tube top with no bra.

0:19:50.040 --> 0:19:52.920
<v Speaker 6>I'm wearing a pair of shorts that I have unbuttoned

0:19:52.920 --> 0:19:55.920
<v Speaker 6>and folded over to make them shorter because I needed

0:19:55.960 --> 0:19:58.240
<v Speaker 6>to make it shorter to go behind. I would never

0:19:58.320 --> 0:20:00.600
<v Speaker 6>in a million years. This is no not like a

0:20:00.760 --> 0:20:02.679
<v Speaker 6>put together up. But it wasn't a choice. It was

0:20:02.720 --> 0:20:05.760
<v Speaker 6>literally just because it worked with what I was told,

0:20:06.040 --> 0:20:10.440
<v Speaker 6>the sausage behind the sausage, and then those photos.

0:20:10.080 --> 0:20:12.199
<v Speaker 1>Worked as a memoir title, and.

0:20:18.280 --> 0:20:23.560
<v Speaker 6>That infuriated me, and I was and I was. I

0:20:23.640 --> 0:20:28.520
<v Speaker 6>was very upset about that, and so had that happened already,

0:20:29.119 --> 0:20:32.960
<v Speaker 6>I probably would never have agreed to do another movie

0:20:33.000 --> 0:20:34.960
<v Speaker 6>with them. But then again, I did do Dorm Days too,

0:20:34.960 --> 0:20:37.359
<v Speaker 6>but I was I did not want to do Dorm

0:20:37.440 --> 0:20:38.439
<v Speaker 6>Days too, and I.

0:20:38.320 --> 0:20:43.280
<v Speaker 4>Really was Queen Queen Merry one that was a total disaster. Yeah.

0:20:43.320 --> 0:20:45.199
<v Speaker 6>I mean, don't get me wrong when I say I

0:20:45.240 --> 0:20:49.520
<v Speaker 6>had a good experience, I wouldn't say I had like

0:20:49.680 --> 0:20:51.280
<v Speaker 6>a great experience, but it wasn't.

0:20:51.440 --> 0:20:53.679
<v Speaker 4>It wasn't a terrible experience doing Dorm Days one.

0:20:53.760 --> 0:20:56.040
<v Speaker 1>It was a job and young everybody.

0:20:56.960 --> 0:20:59.160
<v Speaker 5>It was also the time in Hollywood we've all done

0:20:59.160 --> 0:21:02.360
<v Speaker 5>the mpoon was kind of big, and you wanted, like

0:21:02.760 --> 0:21:04.440
<v Speaker 5>the American pies were popular.

0:21:04.560 --> 0:21:06.760
<v Speaker 3>They were making people's careers, so that kind.

0:21:06.600 --> 0:21:11.560
<v Speaker 5>Of like a little bit riskue, more adult humor. These

0:21:11.600 --> 0:21:13.800
<v Speaker 5>are the things that all the actors our age were

0:21:14.040 --> 0:21:14.520
<v Speaker 5>vying for.

0:21:14.600 --> 0:21:16.119
<v Speaker 3>I mean, this is what we wanted to do. I

0:21:16.160 --> 0:21:17.399
<v Speaker 3>did Gred Diggers, You did that.

0:21:17.480 --> 0:21:20.119
<v Speaker 5>I mean we all had those movies kind of in

0:21:20.200 --> 0:21:20.800
<v Speaker 5>our arsenal.

0:21:20.960 --> 0:21:24.200
<v Speaker 1>And then I think this movie too was a type

0:21:24.359 --> 0:21:28.200
<v Speaker 1>that I participated in as well, which was the we

0:21:28.200 --> 0:21:31.439
<v Speaker 1>could shoot a whole movie on green screen and it

0:21:31.520 --> 0:21:35.800
<v Speaker 1>looks great correct before it did actually look before it

0:21:36.880 --> 0:21:40.760
<v Speaker 1>when everybody basically had after effects and like some simple

0:21:41.280 --> 0:21:44.719
<v Speaker 1>like you know, the beginnings of what became like Avatar, right,

0:21:45.040 --> 0:21:48.080
<v Speaker 1>like what they could do with Avatar. Four years later,

0:21:48.280 --> 0:21:48.920
<v Speaker 1>five years.

0:21:48.760 --> 0:21:53.359
<v Speaker 4>Later, Box Is the original Avatar, but.

0:21:53.240 --> 0:21:55.439
<v Speaker 1>They I got pitched the same thing because I did

0:21:55.520 --> 0:21:57.560
<v Speaker 1>one of the Pulse movies was was exactly the same

0:21:57.840 --> 0:22:00.400
<v Speaker 1>around the same time, maybe a little later, or Pulse

0:22:00.440 --> 0:22:02.240
<v Speaker 1>two or puls three. I honestly don't know, but I'm

0:22:02.280 --> 0:22:03.680
<v Speaker 1>in one of those. Maybe I'm in both of them.

0:22:03.720 --> 0:22:06.760
<v Speaker 1>But it was like it was like an audition, and

0:22:06.800 --> 0:22:09.359
<v Speaker 1>I auditioned and then they were like, it was a

0:22:09.400 --> 0:22:11.680
<v Speaker 1>small part, but they were like, oh, and the whole

0:22:11.720 --> 0:22:14.040
<v Speaker 1>thing is we are going to shoot this all, the

0:22:14.080 --> 0:22:17.199
<v Speaker 1>whole movie on a green screen. And I was like, okay,

0:22:17.359 --> 0:22:20.600
<v Speaker 1>They're like, we're gonna make it look great. And luckily

0:22:20.640 --> 0:22:23.000
<v Speaker 1>my part, because it was a small part, wasn't that

0:22:23.119 --> 0:22:26.000
<v Speaker 1>much green screen work. But apparently there's like two movies,

0:22:26.000 --> 0:22:28.040
<v Speaker 1>Pulse two and Pulstery that are all green screen and

0:22:28.040 --> 0:22:29.480
<v Speaker 1>they look like this film.

0:22:29.600 --> 0:22:31.199
<v Speaker 3>This movie looked like it was shot on a net

0:22:31.280 --> 0:22:31.679
<v Speaker 3>to sketch.

0:22:31.880 --> 0:22:35.760
<v Speaker 1>Yes, yes, it's just it's just a technology was not there,

0:22:36.200 --> 0:22:38.560
<v Speaker 1>and yet everybody sort of bought into this idea that

0:22:38.600 --> 0:22:41.359
<v Speaker 1>you could make a movie so easily, and yeah, like

0:22:41.400 --> 0:22:43.840
<v Speaker 1>so you probably shot this in what like nine days

0:22:43.840 --> 0:22:44.720
<v Speaker 1>seven I was going to.

0:22:44.720 --> 0:22:46.679
<v Speaker 4>Say, like I think eleven days were and.

0:22:47.400 --> 0:22:50.159
<v Speaker 1>Action sequences right, Like the script.

0:22:49.840 --> 0:22:55.440
<v Speaker 6>Is warehouse that was all painted green, and I had

0:22:55.480 --> 0:23:03.240
<v Speaker 6>a briefcase, even an empty briefcase, handcuffed to me the

0:23:03.680 --> 0:23:09.080
<v Speaker 6>entire time. And let me tell you, I've been handcuffed

0:23:09.119 --> 0:23:10.320
<v Speaker 6>more than I care.

0:23:12.280 --> 0:23:13.800
<v Speaker 4>They're not comfortable.

0:23:14.400 --> 0:23:15.480
<v Speaker 3>There's just so.

0:23:18.119 --> 0:23:20.320
<v Speaker 6>You're in the same the entire time, pretty much in

0:23:20.359 --> 0:23:23.520
<v Speaker 6>the same outfit the entire time when you're.

0:23:23.400 --> 0:23:26.440
<v Speaker 1>On the beach, and it's just it's just you would

0:23:26.480 --> 0:23:29.280
<v Speaker 1>need the entire time, Like, yeah.

0:23:29.160 --> 0:23:35.000
<v Speaker 6>That's and and that makeup and that ponytail hair extensions.

0:23:35.760 --> 0:23:37.240
<v Speaker 3>This this movie was awesome.

0:23:38.160 --> 0:23:40.480
<v Speaker 8>This is arguably the greatest movie I've ever seen in

0:23:40.520 --> 0:23:49.960
<v Speaker 8>my life.

0:23:53.160 --> 0:23:55.560
<v Speaker 6>Let's jump into it. You guys can watch it on

0:23:55.600 --> 0:23:59.240
<v Speaker 6>the streaming service to Be for free. But I wouldn't

0:23:59.440 --> 0:24:00.160
<v Speaker 6>suggest it.

0:24:02.040 --> 0:24:05.879
<v Speaker 3>I absolutely would. Writer liked it. Writer loved this movie.

0:24:05.880 --> 0:24:09.440
<v Speaker 5>I's gonna like this movie.

0:24:09.640 --> 0:24:12.359
<v Speaker 1>I actually, I actually don't mind the script.

0:24:12.480 --> 0:24:13.919
<v Speaker 3>I think that there's some movie.

0:24:14.040 --> 0:24:17.080
<v Speaker 1>I think there's some beats in here that I go,

0:24:17.240 --> 0:24:19.680
<v Speaker 1>you know what, that's actually the only way you could

0:24:19.760 --> 0:24:23.880
<v Speaker 1>write this, And there's some real character development, there's backstory.

0:24:23.920 --> 0:24:28.000
<v Speaker 1>I was like, actually, if the effects, yes were good,

0:24:28.840 --> 0:24:31.840
<v Speaker 1>this is a half decent movie. This is like, I'm like,

0:24:31.920 --> 0:24:34.439
<v Speaker 1>you took this conceit and you kind of developed it

0:24:34.480 --> 0:24:35.040
<v Speaker 1>pretty well.

0:24:35.760 --> 0:24:39.359
<v Speaker 5>You also went it was one stereotype, like one like

0:24:39.440 --> 0:24:41.520
<v Speaker 5>I've seen this in a thousand movies. After I've seen

0:24:41.520 --> 0:24:43.800
<v Speaker 5>this in the FA that's true, him sitting there watching

0:24:43.840 --> 0:24:46.800
<v Speaker 5>the old videos of his gio. Okay, this has been

0:24:46.800 --> 0:24:50.359
<v Speaker 5>a nine billion things. So yeah, I mean it wasn't

0:24:50.400 --> 0:24:52.439
<v Speaker 5>there was nothing new in the story.

0:24:52.640 --> 0:24:54.879
<v Speaker 1>No, No, I guess not, but I guess. I was

0:24:54.960 --> 0:24:57.320
<v Speaker 1>just like I was like, well, that's a pretty good

0:24:57.359 --> 0:24:59.720
<v Speaker 1>break into two. That's a pretty good like all the

0:24:59.760 --> 0:25:01.720
<v Speaker 1>beat are there that I was like that it needed

0:25:01.800 --> 0:25:04.560
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean, it is a complete because

0:25:04.600 --> 0:25:07.320
<v Speaker 1>a lot of bad movies and you know, actually just

0:25:07.320 --> 0:25:10.080
<v Speaker 1>don't function as stories. You're like, wait a minute, I

0:25:10.160 --> 0:25:12.400
<v Speaker 1>don't know what's happening. I don't know whereas this movie

0:25:12.440 --> 0:25:15.879
<v Speaker 1>has like enough twists and everything does get explained.

0:25:15.359 --> 0:25:16.840
<v Speaker 3>Like I was like too long.

0:25:17.160 --> 0:25:19.000
<v Speaker 1>No, I was like, this is it's you know, like

0:25:19.040 --> 0:25:20.880
<v Speaker 1>the beats are there. I was like, somebody knows how

0:25:20.920 --> 0:25:23.359
<v Speaker 1>to write a screenplay. So I wasn't surprised to find

0:25:23.359 --> 0:25:25.760
<v Speaker 1>out the guy who wrote this wrote the Sonic the

0:25:25.760 --> 0:25:26.720
<v Speaker 1>Hedgehog movies.

0:25:26.760 --> 0:25:27.800
<v Speaker 4>There's all three of them.

0:25:27.920 --> 0:25:29.520
<v Speaker 1>This guy's gone, Like I could tell. I was, like,

0:25:29.560 --> 0:25:32.639
<v Speaker 1>there's somebody here that knows what they're doing in terms

0:25:32.680 --> 0:25:35.240
<v Speaker 1>of like how to make it a functioning movie, whether

0:25:35.280 --> 0:25:38.480
<v Speaker 1>all those choices were a good idea given the constraints

0:25:38.520 --> 0:25:42.680
<v Speaker 1>of budget, and you know, no, like there's just way

0:25:42.720 --> 0:25:45.560
<v Speaker 1>too much pressure put on this movie to be visually

0:25:45.600 --> 0:25:48.320
<v Speaker 1>stunning in a way that it just couldn't just couldn't.

0:25:48.040 --> 0:25:48.480
<v Speaker 4>Could not be.

0:25:48.800 --> 0:25:49.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:25:50.000 --> 0:25:56.080

0:26:00.080 --> 0:26:03.040
<v Speaker 6>he received in the mail. It was directed by David

0:26:03.080 --> 0:26:07.119
<v Speaker 6>Hillenbrand and Scott Hillenbrand. It was written by Pat Casey

0:26:07.359 --> 0:26:10.960
<v Speaker 6>and Josh Miller, who I can admit is a duo

0:26:11.000 --> 0:26:13.600
<v Speaker 6>that wrote some very bad movies from my past, but

0:26:13.640 --> 0:26:17.280
<v Speaker 6>they are now a very big deal in my household.

0:26:17.440 --> 0:26:20.639
<v Speaker 6>They would eventually transition into writing for animated kid TV

0:26:20.720 --> 0:26:23.840
<v Speaker 6>shows like Team Hot Wheels and Goal in the Insatiable,

0:26:23.880 --> 0:26:28.000
<v Speaker 6>but now they've since written all three Sonic the Hedgehok movies,

0:26:28.359 --> 0:26:33.560
<v Speaker 6>the upcoming fourth installment, and Violent Knight starring David Harber. Oh,

0:26:33.600 --> 0:26:36.720
<v Speaker 6>so do we think game Box one point zero is

0:26:36.760 --> 0:26:40.359
<v Speaker 6>their inspiration for later success with another.

0:26:40.119 --> 0:26:41.760
<v Speaker 1>Radio game character.

0:26:42.720 --> 0:26:44.520
<v Speaker 4>Well, then you're welcome.

0:26:44.640 --> 0:26:51.800
<v Speaker 6>Boys starring Nate Richard is Charlie Nash, friend of the show.

0:26:51.920 --> 0:26:53.040
<v Speaker 4>Nate is best known.

0:26:52.880 --> 0:26:55.399
<v Speaker 6>As Harvey on Sabrina the Teenage Witch and is just

0:26:55.480 --> 0:26:59.159
<v Speaker 6>a great guy all around. He's always been so honest

0:26:59.200 --> 0:27:01.439
<v Speaker 6>and open about his struggles with being in this business.

0:27:01.440 --> 0:27:04.520
<v Speaker 6>And if you want to hear a great interview, including

0:27:04.840 --> 0:27:07.720
<v Speaker 6>some game box talk, you can look up our episode

0:27:07.720 --> 0:27:11.520
<v Speaker 6>with Nate on all streaming services. And yes, that is

0:27:12.080 --> 0:27:15.600
<v Speaker 6>Danielle Fischel as Kate and Princess.

0:27:15.960 --> 0:27:19.919
<v Speaker 3>Did I miss the actual credits?

0:27:20.040 --> 0:27:22.800
<v Speaker 5>I didn't actually see any credits at the opening credits.

0:27:23.080 --> 0:27:23.520
<v Speaker 3>What do you mean?

0:27:23.800 --> 0:27:25.480
<v Speaker 1>There's opening credits too, and.

0:27:25.440 --> 0:27:28.080
<v Speaker 6>There's a little world thing that spins. It's as Nate

0:27:28.119 --> 0:27:29.160
<v Speaker 6>and then Danielle Fisher.

0:27:29.119 --> 0:27:30.560
<v Speaker 3>Did okay, see I didn't see that. I must have

0:27:30.520 --> 0:27:32.399
<v Speaker 3>had for some reason. I didn't see any of that.

0:27:32.840 --> 0:27:35.160
<v Speaker 4>You must have xd out of the two b apps so.

0:27:35.359 --> 0:27:37.879
<v Speaker 5>Fast with that must have been that thing, because I

0:27:37.920 --> 0:27:39.439
<v Speaker 5>didn't see the movie just started.

0:27:39.480 --> 0:27:40.800
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, I didn't see who directed it?

0:27:40.920 --> 0:27:43.400
<v Speaker 4>Is the credit? I didn't wait?

0:27:43.760 --> 0:27:45.720
<v Speaker 3>Was there there was Avatar too.

0:27:45.840 --> 0:27:46.359
<v Speaker 4>I doubt it.

0:27:48.240 --> 0:27:50.000
<v Speaker 1>I thought there was opening credits. I'm pretty sure that

0:27:50.040 --> 0:27:51.000
<v Speaker 1>there might have been.

0:27:51.000 --> 0:27:52.480
<v Speaker 3>I might have just missed it. I just remember.

0:27:52.760 --> 0:27:56.040
<v Speaker 6>I don't remember opening credits, but I remember end credits.

0:27:56.119 --> 0:27:57.320
<v Speaker 4>I saw them at an end.

0:27:57.520 --> 0:28:01.080
<v Speaker 6>Veteran character actor with an incredible name, Trick Kilpatrick is

0:28:01.200 --> 0:28:02.280
<v Speaker 6>Ronald Hobbs and.

0:28:02.720 --> 0:28:05.600
<v Speaker 1>His name is Patrick Kilpatrick. And then there were two

0:28:05.600 --> 0:28:13.480
<v Speaker 1>other Patrick rat Patricks. The rat Patrick Patricks.

0:28:13.680 --> 0:28:17.520
<v Speaker 3>Yes, the Hollywood rat Patricks, the Hollywood Patricks just in.

0:28:17.440 --> 0:28:21.600
<v Speaker 6>This movie Killpatrick has been in a lot of movies

0:28:21.640 --> 0:28:25.200
<v Speaker 6>that Will has seen Toxic Avenger, Death Warrant, Last Man Standing,

0:28:25.280 --> 0:28:28.720
<v Speaker 6>A Racer Minority Report, and TV shows like Doctor Quinn,

0:28:28.720 --> 0:28:31.359
<v Speaker 6>Medicine Woman, The X Files, Chuck and n c I

0:28:31.560 --> 0:28:32.480
<v Speaker 6>s New Organs.

0:28:32.600 --> 0:28:34.320
<v Speaker 3>He also missed Under Siege two.

0:28:34.840 --> 0:28:37.080
<v Speaker 4>Oh yeah, okay, that's awesome.

0:28:38.000 --> 0:28:39.400
<v Speaker 3>Oh and oh my god.

0:28:39.560 --> 0:28:42.840
<v Speaker 5>He was also in Oh, what's that awful karate movie

0:28:42.840 --> 0:28:47.040
<v Speaker 5>that's the best thing ever with with Eric Roberts. Oh

0:28:47.080 --> 0:28:48.720
<v Speaker 5>I forget the name of a wolf to find it.

0:28:48.840 --> 0:28:50.320
<v Speaker 5>But yeah, he's in the second part of that too.

0:28:50.360 --> 0:28:51.760
<v Speaker 5>He plays the main bag, one of the main bad

0:28:51.800 --> 0:28:55.640
<v Speaker 5>guys in that, and it's just best best of the best.

0:28:56.280 --> 0:28:57.440
<v Speaker 3>Is that what it was? Best? I think he's in

0:28:57.520 --> 0:28:59.840
<v Speaker 3>Best of the Best too too.

0:29:00.080 --> 0:29:01.360
<v Speaker 5>I think I think it's best and the best. I

0:29:01.360 --> 0:29:02.600
<v Speaker 5>could be wrong, but you'll find it.

0:29:03.280 --> 0:29:05.680
<v Speaker 1>I was so funny to watch your brain make that connection.

0:29:05.720 --> 0:29:06.600
<v Speaker 1>You're like, it's just the best.

0:29:06.680 --> 0:29:10.800
<v Speaker 3>Yes, I said the word that is the thing.

0:29:11.160 --> 0:29:12.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm pretty sure it is.

0:29:14.640 --> 0:29:17.240
<v Speaker 4>And then we have Patrick Kavanaugh as Peter or.

0:29:17.360 --> 0:29:20.000
<v Speaker 6>Patrick had an impressive TV resume at the time, having

0:29:20.040 --> 0:29:22.960
<v Speaker 6>appeared on Six Feet Under Fraser and King of Queens,

0:29:23.240 --> 0:29:26.120
<v Speaker 6>and has since shown up and even more. He plays

0:29:26.280 --> 0:29:29.520
<v Speaker 6>Smitty on twelve episodes of Mad Men Burrows and twelve

0:29:29.520 --> 0:29:32.480
<v Speaker 6>episodes of Agents of Shield, and just this year was

0:29:32.480 --> 0:29:35.719
<v Speaker 6>in six episodes of the buzzworthy show Paradise.

0:29:36.400 --> 0:29:37.200
<v Speaker 4>Is it best of the best?

0:29:37.240 --> 0:29:39.080
<v Speaker 3>Well, it's best of the best too, But I'm pretty

0:29:39.080 --> 0:29:41.120
<v Speaker 3>sure he's in it. Now I can't find it, dude.

0:29:41.240 --> 0:29:43.920
<v Speaker 5>It's Philip Ray, Eric Roberts, and Chris Penn. It's three

0:29:44.040 --> 0:29:50.320
<v Speaker 5>martial arts masters. Yes, she was the best. Yes, yes, yes,

0:29:50.320 --> 0:29:51.880
<v Speaker 5>exactly yeah.

0:29:51.920 --> 0:29:55.840
<v Speaker 6>And then another acting vet, Devon Nixon, plays Sherman. Nixon

0:29:55.920 --> 0:29:59.360
<v Speaker 6>was in Terminator two, which got me thinking, writer, did

0:29:59.400 --> 0:30:02.479
<v Speaker 6>you try out for Eddie Furlong's part The Terminator too.

0:30:02.520 --> 0:30:04.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I didn't get far, but it was an early

0:30:04.680 --> 0:30:07.680
<v Speaker 1>early audition that I had to put myself on tape for.

0:30:08.200 --> 0:30:08.400
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:30:08.440 --> 0:30:10.520
<v Speaker 1>I don't even think I ended up auditioning in person.

0:30:10.560 --> 0:30:13.800
<v Speaker 1>I think it was just I auditioned multiple times. Yeah,

0:30:13.840 --> 0:30:18.120
<v Speaker 1>Shiloh and I both auditioned multiple times on tape. And

0:30:18.920 --> 0:30:26.360
<v Speaker 1>I think the casting director was a legend. What's her name, Finn. Yeah,

0:30:26.400 --> 0:30:30.400
<v Speaker 1>and she ended up casting Shiloh later in his first movie.

0:30:31.480 --> 0:30:33.400
<v Speaker 1>And I think it was after Determinator. She had already

0:30:33.440 --> 0:30:35.840
<v Speaker 1>been cast, so she might have watched Shiloh's tape and

0:30:35.840 --> 0:30:37.600
<v Speaker 1>that's why she cast him in the movie. She did,

0:30:38.200 --> 0:30:39.920
<v Speaker 1>and then she remembered me too. She brought me in

0:30:39.960 --> 0:30:42.000
<v Speaker 1>for stuff all the way up until I was like

0:30:42.080 --> 0:30:42.800
<v Speaker 1>in my twenties.

0:30:43.360 --> 0:30:45.640
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I feel like some role was just made for

0:30:45.680 --> 0:30:49.560
<v Speaker 6>a young writer strong. So Nixon played Omar on the

0:30:49.600 --> 0:30:52.640
<v Speaker 6>Secret Lives of the American Teenager, Kine on Snowfall, and

0:30:52.760 --> 0:30:56.160
<v Speaker 6>just recently he was basketball legend Norm Nixon on Winning

0:30:56.200 --> 0:31:00.680
<v Speaker 6>Time The Rise of the Lakers Legacy. Another friend of

0:31:00.720 --> 0:31:05.720
<v Speaker 6>the show, Patrick Renna, plays Kaplan. Renna is world renowned

0:31:05.760 --> 0:31:08.800
<v Speaker 6>as ham Porter in the Sandlot and thus is the

0:31:08.880 --> 0:31:11.480
<v Speaker 6>kid on those T shirts you see that say you're

0:31:11.560 --> 0:31:14.520
<v Speaker 6>killing me smalls And yes, he is a former Boy

0:31:14.560 --> 0:31:17.000
<v Speaker 6>Meets World guest star. He played Kyle in season three

0:31:17.040 --> 0:31:18.920
<v Speaker 6>episode eighteen, Life Lessons.

0:31:19.160 --> 0:31:21.800
<v Speaker 4>He also starred alongside one Writer Strong.

0:31:21.560 --> 0:31:25.000
<v Speaker 6>In the Disney Movie of the Week Summertime Switch. We

0:31:25.160 --> 0:31:28.320
<v Speaker 6>not only interviewed Renna on this show, we reviewed Summertime

0:31:28.360 --> 0:31:31.440
<v Speaker 6>Switch for Writers Big Movie Week. So please go listen

0:31:31.480 --> 0:31:35.640
<v Speaker 6>to that, maybe even instead of listening to this one parasvie.

0:31:35.640 --> 0:31:36.560
<v Speaker 3>You just want to know.

0:31:38.600 --> 0:31:40.680
<v Speaker 5>I love how both of the movies we picked for

0:31:40.720 --> 0:31:42.000
<v Speaker 5>you guys are you guys?

0:31:42.000 --> 0:31:42.800
<v Speaker 3>And Patrick Renner?

0:31:42.880 --> 0:31:44.800
<v Speaker 1>Patrick Renner I know is in both of them.

0:31:45.040 --> 0:31:46.000
<v Speaker 4>Love Patrick Renner.

0:31:46.200 --> 0:31:47.200
<v Speaker 1>He's great in this movie.

0:31:47.240 --> 0:31:47.920
<v Speaker 3>Actually is.

0:31:49.440 --> 0:31:53.960
<v Speaker 1>Everything well. In Summertimes Switch, he's a little too psychotic.

0:31:54.280 --> 0:31:56.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean I don't necessarily blame him. It's it's part

0:31:56.840 --> 0:31:59.520
<v Speaker 1>of the character too, but it's a lot. Where's this?

0:31:59.560 --> 0:32:01.520
<v Speaker 1>I was like, Wow, Patrick is so good? Yes?

0:32:01.720 --> 0:32:04.080
<v Speaker 3>Ever can just act yeaheah, Yeah, that's great.

0:32:04.680 --> 0:32:07.800
<v Speaker 6>Renna has become a star on social media, more specifically TikTok,

0:32:07.800 --> 0:32:09.920
<v Speaker 6>where he shows off how great of a dnswer he is.

0:32:10.000 --> 0:32:12.680
<v Speaker 6>We are all big Patrick Rena fans around here, so

0:32:12.800 --> 0:32:13.680
<v Speaker 6>shout out to that guy.

0:32:14.080 --> 0:32:16.480
<v Speaker 4>And now I know I was dreading this episode.

0:32:16.520 --> 0:32:21.760
<v Speaker 6>But I did find very two very positive things about

0:32:21.800 --> 0:32:26.680
<v Speaker 6>game Box. First, almost the entire soundtrack is written and

0:32:26.760 --> 0:32:32.560
<v Speaker 6>performed by a guy named Ali d Ali Theodore on Trivia.

0:32:33.080 --> 0:32:38.320
<v Speaker 6>He was a frequent music collaborator of Jensen's Oh totally coincidence,

0:32:38.520 --> 0:32:40.640
<v Speaker 6>and he has gone on to make music for the

0:32:40.680 --> 0:32:47.000
<v Speaker 6>Disney Zombies franchise Wow and wrote the Mario rap in

0:32:47.160 --> 0:32:52.320
<v Speaker 6>Super Mario Bros. Wow, Another Pod meets World connection. He

0:32:52.360 --> 0:32:56.360
<v Speaker 6>composes a lot of the modern day w WE entrance.

0:32:56.200 --> 0:32:59.040
<v Speaker 3>SONGSZ, so we gotta get him on.

0:32:59.560 --> 0:33:02.760
<v Speaker 1>Also, the lyrics are a little little on the nose.

0:33:02.800 --> 0:33:05.480
<v Speaker 1>We'll talk about Did you notice the lyrics? Did you,

0:33:05.520 --> 0:33:06.480
<v Speaker 1>guys notice.

0:33:09.440 --> 0:33:10.880
<v Speaker 3>Fascinated by the visuals?

0:33:11.400 --> 0:33:14.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well, I had to go back several times to

0:33:14.240 --> 0:33:15.560
<v Speaker 1>make sure I was hearing the words right.

0:33:16.160 --> 0:33:20.680
<v Speaker 6>My second, very very positive thing about this movie is

0:33:20.720 --> 0:33:24.280
<v Speaker 6>that it is only eighty three minutes, so it was great.

0:33:24.680 --> 0:33:27.400
<v Speaker 6>It has that going and I watched it on one point.

0:33:27.280 --> 0:33:30.280
<v Speaker 4>Five guys, let me have it.

0:33:30.400 --> 0:33:34.280
<v Speaker 6>Let me know your early thoughts on game Box.

0:33:34.320 --> 0:33:36.640
<v Speaker 1>Why I've already told you I think I think this

0:33:36.680 --> 0:33:43.680
<v Speaker 1>movie is you know, incredibly poorly directed and mostly because

0:33:43.720 --> 0:33:45.959
<v Speaker 1>of money. Like it's not I don't even really blame.

0:33:46.360 --> 0:33:50.360
<v Speaker 1>It's just the decision to take advantage of special effects

0:33:50.360 --> 0:33:52.600
<v Speaker 1>that we're not there yet, Like you just didn't have

0:33:52.600 --> 0:33:57.480
<v Speaker 1>the technology to be there, and so the major choice

0:33:57.560 --> 0:33:59.960
<v Speaker 1>to like shoot this on green screen and fill in

0:34:00.040 --> 0:34:04.640
<v Speaker 1>and everything with computer graphics just sucks because those computer

0:34:04.680 --> 0:34:07.600
<v Speaker 1>graphics aren't and it's it's it's a choice that makes

0:34:07.640 --> 0:34:10.239
<v Speaker 1>sense given that they're stuck in a video game, but

0:34:10.320 --> 0:34:13.880
<v Speaker 1>it just is never the stakes are never there, right,

0:34:13.920 --> 0:34:16.880
<v Speaker 1>You never feel like you're actually in any of these places.

0:34:16.960 --> 0:34:19.799
<v Speaker 1>They never feel scary. The zombies are one of the

0:34:19.840 --> 0:34:21.400
<v Speaker 1>craziest things I've ever seen.

0:34:22.760 --> 0:34:25.799
<v Speaker 5>I mean, so you guys don't know zombies, that's what

0:34:25.880 --> 0:34:29.719
<v Speaker 5>that's was perfect, that's what that's what digital dancing zombies

0:34:29.760 --> 0:34:30.120
<v Speaker 5>look like.

0:34:30.560 --> 0:34:33.600
<v Speaker 1>A little it's just like it was like suddenly a

0:34:33.640 --> 0:34:37.000
<v Speaker 1>music video, you know, like people, I.

0:34:36.920 --> 0:34:42.080
<v Speaker 9>Was like exactly, but it's just everything has this complete fake,

0:34:42.560 --> 0:34:45.879
<v Speaker 9>you know quality, So it just never feels this never

0:34:45.920 --> 0:34:47.720
<v Speaker 9>feels like anything's actually happening.

0:34:47.840 --> 0:34:50.120
<v Speaker 1>And so like even though the concept was cool and

0:34:50.200 --> 0:34:52.359
<v Speaker 1>like yeah, but you just can never get around that.

0:34:52.400 --> 0:34:55.040
<v Speaker 1>You know, you can never get around the like hokiness

0:34:55.080 --> 0:34:58.120
<v Speaker 1>of this production choice that just wasn't ready to be there.

0:34:58.120 --> 0:35:00.640
<v Speaker 1>But like like I said, in Avatar, they pulled off.

0:35:00.640 --> 0:35:03.200
<v Speaker 1>But that's hundreds of millions of dollars in technology that

0:35:03.360 --> 0:35:04.240
<v Speaker 1>was super advanced.

0:35:04.800 --> 0:35:07.640
<v Speaker 5>But again, you even back in the day had movies

0:35:07.719 --> 0:35:11.040
<v Speaker 5>like Tron, which again we were for the.

0:35:11.040 --> 0:35:14.680
<v Speaker 3>Time, but they weren't using computers. Yeah, of course they

0:35:14.680 --> 0:35:15.359
<v Speaker 3>were the first choice.

0:35:15.520 --> 0:35:16.800
<v Speaker 5>Sure, well, of course it was was one of the

0:35:16.800 --> 0:35:18.719
<v Speaker 5>first ones to do it, and it was absolutely for

0:35:18.880 --> 0:35:19.320
<v Speaker 5>the time.

0:35:19.440 --> 0:35:21.560
<v Speaker 3>They did the it was brilliant.

0:35:21.960 --> 0:35:24.319
<v Speaker 4>Well did they have more than sixty dollars.

0:35:24.080 --> 0:35:26.640
<v Speaker 6>Because I'm pretty sure the budget for this movie was

0:35:26.680 --> 0:35:28.240
<v Speaker 6>about sixty dollars.

0:35:29.120 --> 0:35:33.279
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, this look I love movies like this because they're

0:35:33.360 --> 0:35:36.600
<v Speaker 5>so bad. Where it's I mean, it looks like it

0:35:36.640 --> 0:35:38.200
<v Speaker 5>was shot in an etch et, you just sketch.

0:35:38.280 --> 0:35:41.320
<v Speaker 3>Like I said, it sounds like it was recorded on matches.

0:35:41.640 --> 0:35:44.319
<v Speaker 10>Sound is really bad, I mean, it's I can think

0:35:44.360 --> 0:35:46.840
<v Speaker 10>it was that a choice though, because but it sounded

0:35:46.840 --> 0:35:48.279
<v Speaker 10>bad even when they weren't in the game.

0:35:48.400 --> 0:35:50.960
<v Speaker 1>I know it was confusing bad. It had the metallic

0:35:51.239 --> 0:35:53.480
<v Speaker 1>quality to the sound, and I was like but I

0:35:53.520 --> 0:35:56.040
<v Speaker 1>get that when they're in the game, but outside of

0:35:56.040 --> 0:35:57.560
<v Speaker 1>the game, it was also doing it. I was like,

0:35:57.600 --> 0:36:00.160
<v Speaker 1>what's happening? And maybe that was another intentional choice to

0:36:00.239 --> 0:36:01.040
<v Speaker 1>like blur the lines.

0:36:01.680 --> 0:36:04.959
<v Speaker 3>ITAL think so.

0:36:05.200 --> 0:36:07.480
<v Speaker 5>And so, I mean again, it was it was what

0:36:07.520 --> 0:36:10.160
<v Speaker 5>it was it. There are certain parts of it that

0:36:10.200 --> 0:36:12.400
<v Speaker 5>were very fun. Again, again, the idea of being in

0:36:12.400 --> 0:36:14.839
<v Speaker 5>a video game, and I knew all the video game tropes. Mean,

0:36:14.880 --> 0:36:17.000
<v Speaker 5>it's like, okay, so he wakes up and it's it's

0:36:17.040 --> 0:36:19.160
<v Speaker 5>grand Theft Auto. And now now it's like I got

0:36:19.160 --> 0:36:21.200
<v Speaker 5>what they were doing, but none of the story really

0:36:21.239 --> 0:36:23.640
<v Speaker 5>made any sense. You never find out where this what

0:36:23.719 --> 0:36:26.080
<v Speaker 5>this video game is, or where it comes from the

0:36:26.080 --> 0:36:26.680
<v Speaker 5>point it is.

0:36:27.280 --> 0:36:30.280
<v Speaker 6>So you think they called it one point zero because

0:36:30.320 --> 0:36:31.279
<v Speaker 6>they were hoping for.

0:36:31.400 --> 0:36:36.840
<v Speaker 5>Us, I think so, yeah, and it is it was

0:36:36.880 --> 0:36:38.840
<v Speaker 5>just taking one movie trope and putting it next to

0:36:38.960 --> 0:36:41.560
<v Speaker 5>I mean, every time you see somebody it's from you

0:36:41.600 --> 0:36:43.680
<v Speaker 5>know they I love when they take things from big

0:36:43.719 --> 0:36:47.200
<v Speaker 5>one hundred million dollar movies, like you know the in

0:36:47.320 --> 0:36:50.040
<v Speaker 5>Minority Report when Tom Cruise loses his wife and it's

0:36:50.120 --> 0:36:53.040
<v Speaker 5>just he just sits there watching his wife on film

0:36:53.120 --> 0:36:54.440
<v Speaker 5>and that's just the thing you see over and over.

0:36:54.520 --> 0:36:57.840
<v Speaker 5>But it's just made by himself with like Danielle like

0:36:57.840 --> 0:37:01.960
<v Speaker 5>the like running through the pre dat. I don't know

0:37:01.960 --> 0:37:04.800
<v Speaker 5>what it's been in a thousand things. I mean, we

0:37:04.920 --> 0:37:09.040
<v Speaker 5>did inspire, I think so again. Is it the greatest

0:37:09.040 --> 0:37:09.719
<v Speaker 5>movie of all time?

0:37:09.840 --> 0:37:13.040
<v Speaker 3>No? Was I entertained for eighty two minutes?

0:37:13.320 --> 0:37:13.520
<v Speaker 1>Hell?

0:37:13.640 --> 0:37:14.279
<v Speaker 3>Yes I was.

0:37:14.440 --> 0:37:14.839
<v Speaker 1>It was.

0:37:15.520 --> 0:37:18.279
<v Speaker 5>It was absolutely a fun eighty two minute You know,

0:37:18.320 --> 0:37:20.440
<v Speaker 5>I watch a lot of the for the other podcast,

0:37:20.520 --> 0:37:22.839
<v Speaker 5>I have to watch a dcom or sometimes two a week,

0:37:23.239 --> 0:37:25.200
<v Speaker 5>and there's some of those that are the same length

0:37:25.200 --> 0:37:27.279
<v Speaker 5>eighty two eighty five eighty minutes, and I've got to

0:37:27.280 --> 0:37:29.880
<v Speaker 5>watch it in like ten minute increments where it's like

0:37:29.960 --> 0:37:31.439
<v Speaker 5>I can't get through this movie right now.

0:37:31.760 --> 0:37:33.880
<v Speaker 3>This was just I mean, talk about a romp of

0:37:33.920 --> 0:37:34.400
<v Speaker 3>a film.

0:37:34.560 --> 0:37:36.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, really, turn it on.

0:37:36.800 --> 0:37:39.920
<v Speaker 5>It was loud, it was bad, it was it was great.

0:37:40.000 --> 0:37:42.520
<v Speaker 5>I fully enjoyed it for eighty two minutes. I really

0:37:42.600 --> 0:37:43.919
<v Speaker 5>did well.

0:37:44.000 --> 0:37:46.279
<v Speaker 6>Jumping into our recap, the credits roll as we see

0:37:46.320 --> 0:37:49.120
<v Speaker 6>someone furiously hitting buttons on their video game controller with

0:37:49.160 --> 0:37:52.160
<v Speaker 6>different clips of games they're playing. We eventually see an

0:37:52.200 --> 0:37:55.759
<v Speaker 6>ominous piece of equipment that has only one button on it.

0:37:55.920 --> 0:38:00.719
<v Speaker 6>Start we get a loading screen, slowly progressing in percentage,

0:38:00.719 --> 0:38:03.479
<v Speaker 6>then speeding to one hundred percent. The title game box

0:38:03.520 --> 0:38:05.520
<v Speaker 6>one point zero erupts onto the screen.

0:38:06.080 --> 0:38:08.759
<v Speaker 4>We're now in Black Rock, Utah one week ago.

0:38:08.840 --> 0:38:11.320
<v Speaker 6>We're inside of a dark, creepy house and a sleeping

0:38:11.400 --> 0:38:14.400
<v Speaker 6>young Chris is straight up convulsing in bed, and we

0:38:14.480 --> 0:38:17.400
<v Speaker 6>catch glimpses of the nightmare he's currently having. He's running

0:38:17.440 --> 0:38:19.399
<v Speaker 6>for his life as a man in a creepy eyes,

0:38:19.440 --> 0:38:22.680
<v Speaker 6>wide shut mask and sheathed sword chases after him in

0:38:22.680 --> 0:38:26.279
<v Speaker 6>a video game level. Somehow his mother, His mother is

0:38:26.320 --> 0:38:28.120
<v Speaker 6>awoken by the convulsing Yeah, I.

0:38:28.120 --> 0:38:28.520
<v Speaker 3>Don't know how.

0:38:28.640 --> 0:38:31.960
<v Speaker 1>She knows, sar somewhere my son is in trouble.

0:38:32.680 --> 0:38:40.680
<v Speaker 6>She's looking at and she and her husband run into

0:38:40.719 --> 0:38:42.920
<v Speaker 6>their son's room. She tries to wake up Chris, who

0:38:42.960 --> 0:38:45.919
<v Speaker 6>is now in full speed convulsions. He's stuck in the dream,

0:38:46.000 --> 0:38:48.799
<v Speaker 6>now sprinting through a tunnel. Just when he thinks he's

0:38:48.840 --> 0:38:51.840
<v Speaker 6>lost the masked man, the monster appears out of nowhere

0:38:52.000 --> 0:38:54.720
<v Speaker 6>and slashes him. The boy wakes up for a second

0:38:54.719 --> 0:38:57.520
<v Speaker 6>with sweat coating his face, then falls right back onto

0:38:57.560 --> 0:39:00.080
<v Speaker 6>his pillow. His mom says he's not breathing, so his

0:39:00.120 --> 0:39:02.760
<v Speaker 6>dad calls nine one one as they panic, we zoom

0:39:02.800 --> 0:39:05.279
<v Speaker 6>in on that weird item with the start button from

0:39:05.320 --> 0:39:08.960
<v Speaker 6>the credits. It dominantly ominously sits on the boys dresser.

0:39:09.239 --> 0:39:10.880
<v Speaker 1>So then I was like, oh, this is full on

0:39:11.000 --> 0:39:12.040
<v Speaker 1>nightmare and Elm Street.

0:39:12.440 --> 0:39:13.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, with the.

0:39:13.840 --> 0:39:17.160
<v Speaker 1>You know if you die in your dreams, And then

0:39:17.160 --> 0:39:18.600
<v Speaker 1>I was like, oh, you know what, this is like

0:39:18.719 --> 0:39:22.319
<v Speaker 1>the Ring for video games, which totally turns out to

0:39:22.320 --> 0:39:24.640
<v Speaker 1>be the case because at the end he passes it

0:39:24.680 --> 0:39:27.399
<v Speaker 1>along just like when pass the videotape in the ring

0:39:27.520 --> 0:39:30.200
<v Speaker 1>to somebody else. So you're right. The elevator pitch was

0:39:30.239 --> 0:39:33.000
<v Speaker 1>if the Ring, yes, was a video game, exactly like

0:39:33.120 --> 0:39:36.120
<v Speaker 1>a killer video game meets Yah.

0:39:36.160 --> 0:39:36.640
<v Speaker 3>Interesting.

0:39:37.800 --> 0:39:40.120
<v Speaker 6>Well, we fade out to a desert road. A small

0:39:40.239 --> 0:39:43.479
<v Speaker 6>tumbleweed rolls into frame. Well you've never seen that before, right.

0:39:43.600 --> 0:39:48.960
<v Speaker 3>No, Tumblewee's brand new, brilliant show a landscape.

0:39:51.400 --> 0:39:54.920
<v Speaker 6>And a mail delivery jeep slowly pulls through the longest

0:39:55.000 --> 0:39:56.399
<v Speaker 6>driving shot I've ever.

0:39:56.680 --> 0:39:58.080
<v Speaker 5>That's what I knew the direction was going to be

0:39:58.120 --> 0:40:00.880
<v Speaker 5>bad where they stuck out of about sixty seconds, then

0:40:00.920 --> 0:40:02.799
<v Speaker 5>finally went and to skip it forward, and so.

0:40:02.760 --> 0:40:05.000
<v Speaker 3>It didn't skip it. It wasn't like three skips where

0:40:05.000 --> 0:40:07.000
<v Speaker 3>you can do like one, two, three. It was always

0:40:07.000 --> 0:40:08.880
<v Speaker 3>a while, a while, and then they're like, oh, just

0:40:08.880 --> 0:40:09.759
<v Speaker 3>skip it, just go.

0:40:10.160 --> 0:40:12.279
<v Speaker 1>That's when you know, that's when you like. When you

0:40:12.320 --> 0:40:15.520
<v Speaker 1>see that kind of editing, especially this early on, you're like, oh,

0:40:15.560 --> 0:40:16.400
<v Speaker 1>they were trying to say.

0:40:16.320 --> 0:40:19.120
<v Speaker 3>A movie like they were desperately in post trying to

0:40:19.120 --> 0:40:20.320
<v Speaker 3>save a movie.

0:40:20.040 --> 0:40:21.920
<v Speaker 1>Like whenever you get. And also when you see split

0:40:21.920 --> 0:40:23.960
<v Speaker 1>screen to start the movie, but it was literally like

0:40:24.280 --> 0:40:26.560
<v Speaker 1>here's a guy playing a video game, here's a split screen,

0:40:26.600 --> 0:40:28.080
<v Speaker 1>it was like, oh, they're just trying to up the

0:40:28.160 --> 0:40:31.320
<v Speaker 1>ener ty because Casey was not working. They're like yeah,

0:40:31.320 --> 0:40:33.960
<v Speaker 1>and the music is doing so much here. The music

0:40:34.080 --> 0:40:38.920
<v Speaker 1>is like yeah, because it's like we're watching a mail truck.

0:40:39.280 --> 0:40:40.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yes, drive.

0:40:41.239 --> 0:40:42.320
<v Speaker 1>So he's got to be excited.

0:40:42.400 --> 0:40:44.680
<v Speaker 6>This movie's only eighty three minutes and they could have

0:40:44.760 --> 0:40:46.600
<v Speaker 6>cut a minute.

0:40:48.600 --> 0:40:50.840
<v Speaker 3>Let's him in now it's too short, but here he is.

0:40:50.880 --> 0:40:54.879
<v Speaker 1>My question. It cuts to the hand tied to the wheel. Yes, yes,

0:40:55.400 --> 0:40:56.279
<v Speaker 1>you get explained.

0:40:56.520 --> 0:41:00.440
<v Speaker 6>No, never, no, And he has one single package for Livery,

0:41:01.640 --> 0:41:04.360
<v Speaker 6>which is of course the video game console, so we again,

0:41:05.560 --> 0:41:07.160
<v Speaker 6>who who wants this?

0:41:07.239 --> 0:41:08.000
<v Speaker 4>Who's doing this?

0:41:08.360 --> 0:41:10.840
<v Speaker 5>And also then when he does send it to the

0:41:10.880 --> 0:41:12.920
<v Speaker 5>new guy at the end, do you need the same

0:41:13.120 --> 0:41:15.799
<v Speaker 5>hand tied mail person to drive it there?

0:41:15.920 --> 0:41:16.240
<v Speaker 3>Again?

0:41:17.120 --> 0:41:20.920
<v Speaker 6>Well, okay, let's let's say that all the previous people

0:41:21.040 --> 0:41:22.040
<v Speaker 6>for this have died.

0:41:22.840 --> 0:41:24.640
<v Speaker 4>No one's ever beaten the game.

0:41:24.800 --> 0:41:27.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh, so is it a dead body being animated? Is

0:41:27.600 --> 0:41:32.040
<v Speaker 1>it the dead kid from the opening being animate?

0:41:32.120 --> 0:41:32.560
<v Speaker 3>His body?

0:41:33.880 --> 0:41:36.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, Like, why is he? Why is somebody

0:41:36.320 --> 0:41:38.000
<v Speaker 1>tied to the thing, and what does that have to

0:41:38.000 --> 0:41:40.200
<v Speaker 1>do with I don't I don't know.

0:41:40.280 --> 0:41:42.640
<v Speaker 5>And also I'm sorry why let's just jump ahead a

0:41:42.640 --> 0:41:45.160
<v Speaker 5>little bit why I didn't understand. I thought what it

0:41:45.200 --> 0:41:49.319
<v Speaker 5>was going to be, which made more sense for for

0:41:49.560 --> 0:41:53.000
<v Speaker 5>the upping the stakes was whoever you put into the

0:41:53.080 --> 0:41:56.480
<v Speaker 5>video game with you is also dies in real life?

0:41:56.560 --> 0:42:01.080
<v Speaker 5>But nope, so they so all his friends were dying

0:42:01.120 --> 0:42:04.320
<v Speaker 5>around him, but they're fine. So then, but he also

0:42:04.440 --> 0:42:07.960
<v Speaker 5>doesn't need to put the anyone in there because the

0:42:08.200 --> 0:42:10.799
<v Speaker 5>game already says his brain knows that's why they have

0:42:10.960 --> 0:42:12.560
<v Speaker 5>Kate in there, and he didn't have to take a

0:42:12.560 --> 0:42:13.360
<v Speaker 5>picture of Kate.

0:42:13.520 --> 0:42:17.560
<v Speaker 1>So do we know how why he's targeted? Ultimately? Does

0:42:17.600 --> 0:42:20.000
<v Speaker 1>it explain? I honestly forgot No. Oh, so we never

0:42:20.040 --> 0:42:24.000
<v Speaker 1>know what he did wrong or right to deserve this

0:42:24.400 --> 0:42:25.320
<v Speaker 1>video game torture.

0:42:25.520 --> 0:42:29.080
<v Speaker 5>My guess is what they were trying to establish with

0:42:29.200 --> 0:42:31.919
<v Speaker 5>the first guy who died and then with this guy

0:42:32.160 --> 0:42:35.520
<v Speaker 5>is they're trying to seek out the best video game

0:42:35.560 --> 0:42:36.640
<v Speaker 5>players in the world.

0:42:37.160 --> 0:42:40.200
<v Speaker 1>Right, and the radio going inscribe the radio DJs are

0:42:40.200 --> 0:42:43.840
<v Speaker 1>discussing mind control via video game. Right, So it's like

0:42:43.920 --> 0:42:49.160
<v Speaker 1>the idea is that, Okay, some shadowy organization is taking

0:42:49.200 --> 0:42:52.440
<v Speaker 1>over the world, But why are they targeting their video

0:42:52.440 --> 0:42:54.560
<v Speaker 1>game players just to test it.

0:42:55.040 --> 0:42:57.359
<v Speaker 3>He's a beta tester, so maybe that's what they're trying

0:42:57.360 --> 0:42:57.600
<v Speaker 3>to do.

0:42:57.880 --> 0:43:01.680
<v Speaker 6>I kind of thought that maybe something they could have

0:43:03.040 --> 0:43:05.880
<v Speaker 6>was that they could have laid the foundation for is

0:43:05.920 --> 0:43:11.200
<v Speaker 6>that these are people who were already maybe depressed people

0:43:11.480 --> 0:43:15.760
<v Speaker 6>and more susceptible to not wanting to be like willing

0:43:15.840 --> 0:43:16.760
<v Speaker 6>to give.

0:43:16.640 --> 0:43:21.080
<v Speaker 4>Up their life because they so. But they they don't

0:43:21.120 --> 0:43:22.000
<v Speaker 4>really set that up.

0:43:22.160 --> 0:43:24.400
<v Speaker 6>They could have in the description of the kid, you know,

0:43:24.640 --> 0:43:29.680
<v Speaker 6>a depressed kid teger who major another died in a

0:43:29.719 --> 0:43:30.239
<v Speaker 6>video game.

0:43:30.320 --> 0:43:32.000
<v Speaker 1>You know. I do think that there's a moral there

0:43:32.040 --> 0:43:34.880
<v Speaker 1>is a sense that you shouldn't play video games too much, right, Like,

0:43:34.960 --> 0:43:36.840
<v Speaker 1>isn't that the kind of the same way that like

0:43:36.880 --> 0:43:40.000
<v Speaker 1>they made it his job letting your kid watch too

0:43:40.040 --> 0:43:40.839
<v Speaker 1>many movies or.

0:43:41.040 --> 0:43:42.200
<v Speaker 3>I mean his job.

0:43:42.239 --> 0:43:44.560
<v Speaker 1>So remember that one character says, you do your job

0:43:44.560 --> 0:43:45.880
<v Speaker 1>and then you go home and all you do is

0:43:45.920 --> 0:43:46.959
<v Speaker 1>also play a video games.

0:43:47.080 --> 0:43:50.279
<v Speaker 5>So it's maybe job where he's wasting his life on

0:43:50.400 --> 0:43:52.800
<v Speaker 5>video games, and like he lost his job because he

0:43:52.880 --> 0:43:53.600
<v Speaker 5>keeps playing a game.

0:43:53.640 --> 0:43:55.680
<v Speaker 3>I mean something like that was supposed to like this

0:43:55.719 --> 0:43:56.360
<v Speaker 3>is his job.

0:43:56.480 --> 0:43:59.800
<v Speaker 5>So he's turned a hobby into a profession, which is

0:43:59.840 --> 0:44:04.120
<v Speaker 5>a good thing, right, So yeah, I don't know.

0:44:06.160 --> 0:44:09.640
<v Speaker 3>The interest so good.

0:44:09.880 --> 0:44:12.160
<v Speaker 6>Now we're at a different house in Los Angeles. Charlie

0:44:12.160 --> 0:44:14.920
<v Speaker 6>is playing video games in his room. The gameplay looks familiar.

0:44:15.160 --> 0:44:17.960
<v Speaker 6>It's from those opening credits. There are pictures of him

0:44:17.960 --> 0:44:20.680
<v Speaker 6>with his girlfriend Kate that's your girl all.

0:44:20.560 --> 0:44:21.120
<v Speaker 4>Over the place.

0:44:21.239 --> 0:44:24.440
<v Speaker 6>Charlie plays as two morning radio hosts talk about the

0:44:24.440 --> 0:44:29.160
<v Speaker 6>boy who died in Utah, apparently from severed internal organs

0:44:30.000 --> 0:44:31.920
<v Speaker 6>no external wounds.

0:44:32.040 --> 0:44:33.240
<v Speaker 4>How does that even happen?

0:44:33.280 --> 0:44:36.600
<v Speaker 6>They wonder. Meanwhile, the male jeep speeds down his road.

0:44:37.040 --> 0:44:40.160
<v Speaker 6>Charlie stops playing and leaves his house looking like the unibomber.

0:44:40.520 --> 0:44:44.239
<v Speaker 6>He also zips up his sweater about an inch and

0:44:44.280 --> 0:44:44.560
<v Speaker 6>a half.

0:44:45.000 --> 0:44:45.359
<v Speaker 3>He does.

0:44:45.400 --> 0:44:48.760
<v Speaker 5>It's he goes from it's like he's playing the character

0:44:48.880 --> 0:44:51.560
<v Speaker 5>of the Unibomber meets Jeffrey Dahmer.

0:44:51.640 --> 0:44:53.759
<v Speaker 3>He had a real Dahmer thing going on too, for

0:44:53.840 --> 0:44:55.800
<v Speaker 3>a lot was really interesting.

0:44:56.080 --> 0:44:59.479
<v Speaker 6>Charlie arrives at work at TBI Technologies. The morning radio

0:44:59.520 --> 0:45:02.200
<v Speaker 6>DJs are still talking about this dead kid and how

0:45:02.239 --> 0:45:04.520
<v Speaker 6>he played a ton of video games. They've come to

0:45:04.520 --> 0:45:06.520
<v Speaker 6>the conclusion that video games would be a good way

0:45:06.520 --> 0:45:09.760
<v Speaker 6>to control people's minds. And that's a coincidence because Charlie

0:45:09.760 --> 0:45:12.320
<v Speaker 6>works as a video game tester. Charlie gets his coffee

0:45:12.320 --> 0:45:14.399
<v Speaker 6>from the kitchen and mingles with his coworkers about the.

0:45:14.320 --> 0:45:15.120
<v Speaker 4>Games they're working on.

0:45:15.520 --> 0:45:17.840
<v Speaker 6>Charlie is a super freak when it comes to finding

0:45:17.880 --> 0:45:23.040
<v Speaker 6>bugs and glitches. A man walks in, So, Dave, that's

0:45:23.040 --> 0:45:24.320
<v Speaker 6>Scott hilen Brand.

0:45:24.960 --> 0:45:28.319
<v Speaker 5>And I figured the second he said a line, I

0:45:28.360 --> 0:45:31.960
<v Speaker 5>was like, he's friends with somebody, or he's director did

0:45:32.040 --> 0:45:35.719
<v Speaker 5>in the movie, or he did something to where Yes,

0:45:35.880 --> 0:45:37.200
<v Speaker 5>that makes helen Brand.

0:45:37.320 --> 0:45:42.879
<v Speaker 6>He says, hey, ladies, it's lunchtime, so good, so it's

0:45:43.000 --> 0:45:44.280
<v Speaker 6>great time at down.

0:45:44.360 --> 0:45:47.040
<v Speaker 1>Then Patrick Grenna asks him. He goes, you're gonna get

0:45:47.080 --> 0:45:50.319
<v Speaker 1>lunch at the usual place and then doesn't go with him.

0:45:50.360 --> 0:45:50.760
<v Speaker 3>No.

0:45:50.760 --> 0:45:50.840
<v Speaker 9>No.

0:45:51.160 --> 0:45:52.920
<v Speaker 1>I was like, Oh, they're gonna go get lunch, We'll

0:45:52.920 --> 0:45:55.040
<v Speaker 1>get a scene where we can talk it out or something.

0:45:55.200 --> 0:45:58.360
<v Speaker 5>Now it seems like he had Patrick Granna for five hours.

0:45:59.160 --> 0:46:01.080
<v Speaker 5>So it's like we got to shoot.

0:46:01.200 --> 0:46:04.640
<v Speaker 1>I feel, you know, Nate is, to Nate's credit, like

0:46:04.680 --> 0:46:07.840
<v Speaker 1>he is in every frame of this movie, and he

0:46:07.960 --> 0:46:11.560
<v Speaker 1>has to be basically two different characters, and he's he

0:46:11.680 --> 0:46:14.520
<v Speaker 1>does a very good job of being very different people.

0:46:14.840 --> 0:46:17.040
<v Speaker 1>You know, when he's in the game, he's kind of

0:46:17.080 --> 0:46:19.200
<v Speaker 1>an action star and he looks different.

0:46:19.440 --> 0:46:19.640
<v Speaker 3>You know.

0:46:19.880 --> 0:46:24.120
<v Speaker 1>The presentation is body language, like every all the scenes here,

0:46:24.600 --> 0:46:27.640
<v Speaker 1>they're just it's whenever you have a character that is sad,

0:46:27.960 --> 0:46:30.600
<v Speaker 1>my god, it's just not it's a really bad you

0:46:30.640 --> 0:46:34.200
<v Speaker 1>got to find a way. It's just not fun to watch.

0:46:34.280 --> 0:46:37.359
<v Speaker 1>And unfortunately it doesn't you know, it doesn't reflect well

0:46:37.360 --> 0:46:39.040
<v Speaker 1>on him and has nothing to do with the actor

0:46:39.080 --> 0:46:41.080
<v Speaker 1>because you got to commit. It's just like, find a

0:46:41.080 --> 0:46:43.399
<v Speaker 1>way to make this active, find a way to make

0:46:43.440 --> 0:46:45.920
<v Speaker 1>this interesting, because it's just not. It sucks.

0:46:47.480 --> 0:46:52.440
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, yeah, it's too bad. It's also so good. So

0:46:52.480 --> 0:46:56.360
<v Speaker 6>it's break time at down the cafe. Charlie arrives by himself,

0:46:56.400 --> 0:46:57.520
<v Speaker 6>and is it really call down?

0:46:58.360 --> 0:46:58.600
<v Speaker 1>Sure?

0:46:58.719 --> 0:47:06.400
<v Speaker 5>Is because sweet to the depressed diner, sad.

0:47:08.239 --> 0:47:11.000
<v Speaker 3>Sad sack lunch. Please sad sack lunch.

0:47:11.200 --> 0:47:14.479
<v Speaker 5>I'd like two spoiled eggs and some sad love rotten milk.

0:47:14.520 --> 0:47:15.319
<v Speaker 3>Please, thank you.

0:47:17.600 --> 0:47:17.799
<v Speaker 5>Well.

0:47:17.840 --> 0:47:20.359
<v Speaker 6>He waits for his usual table. He plays more video

0:47:20.440 --> 0:47:23.480
<v Speaker 6>games on his game boy. He's now only had about

0:47:23.480 --> 0:47:26.760
<v Speaker 6>five percent of his screen time without a controller in hand.

0:47:27.360 --> 0:47:30.719
<v Speaker 6>Once seated, he orders his usual one roast beef with

0:47:30.800 --> 0:47:33.239
<v Speaker 6>extra horse radish on the side, and he runs his

0:47:33.280 --> 0:47:36.439
<v Speaker 6>hand across the table over a carving that reads Kate

0:47:36.520 --> 0:47:40.319
<v Speaker 6>and Charlie. We hear Kate's laugh in his head. She

0:47:40.480 --> 0:47:45.239
<v Speaker 6>calls Charlie Romeo that laugh. It was also a little

0:47:45.360 --> 0:47:49.320
<v Speaker 6>terrifying as he just sadly stares off in the distance.

0:47:49.880 --> 0:47:52.560
<v Speaker 6>He heads back to work and one of his co workers, Kaplan,

0:47:52.640 --> 0:47:57.600
<v Speaker 6>invites him to a double feature Existence and Videodrome Extends,

0:47:58.280 --> 0:48:04.600
<v Speaker 6>Oh sorry, X six existends and Video Drome Yeah and video.

0:48:05.520 --> 0:48:09.440
<v Speaker 1>Very good movies. One is Yeah, they're both Cronenberg films.

0:48:09.480 --> 0:48:14.080
<v Speaker 1>They're really really influential and very cool, and they're they're

0:48:14.120 --> 0:48:18.600
<v Speaker 1>all about video Drome is all about like video videos

0:48:18.960 --> 0:48:21.600
<v Speaker 1>entering real life, so it's very simp they're both the

0:48:21.680 --> 0:48:22.640
<v Speaker 1>references that.

0:48:22.760 --> 0:48:26.399
<v Speaker 6>You know, Yes, they have heavily influenced game Box one

0:48:26.440 --> 0:48:30.919
<v Speaker 6>point yes, which is very good. Meanwhile, back at Charlie's home,

0:48:31.280 --> 0:48:33.640
<v Speaker 6>he returns from a long day at work and collects

0:48:33.680 --> 0:48:36.920
<v Speaker 6>his mail before heading inside. It includes that mysterious package

0:48:36.960 --> 0:48:39.560
<v Speaker 6>we saw earlier mailbox I've ever seen.

0:48:39.360 --> 0:48:41.160
<v Speaker 1>In Lis I know, and they had to add that

0:48:41.239 --> 0:48:44.560
<v Speaker 1>extra mailbox because there's the mailbox regular size, and they

0:48:44.560 --> 0:48:46.000
<v Speaker 1>were like, how do we get the package in here?

0:48:46.120 --> 0:48:53.319
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, just get another mailbox? Yep, yep.

0:48:58.280 --> 0:49:00.760
<v Speaker 6>He unpacks all the equipment and on furls of paper,

0:49:00.840 --> 0:49:04.480
<v Speaker 6>it reads, if you wish to play, put on head set.

0:49:05.239 --> 0:49:07.880
<v Speaker 6>So he puts it on and we see a laser

0:49:07.960 --> 0:49:11.000
<v Speaker 6>style grid cover his brain before a skeleton of his

0:49:11.120 --> 0:49:13.640
<v Speaker 6>face appears and then disappears just as quickly.

0:49:13.800 --> 0:49:14.919
<v Speaker 4>He hears a robot voice.

0:49:15.000 --> 0:49:18.280
<v Speaker 1>This actually, I think pretty effective use of visual effects

0:49:18.320 --> 0:49:20.160
<v Speaker 1>like that, when you just get a glimmer like that

0:49:20.200 --> 0:49:22.959
<v Speaker 1>and you're like, ooh, that's that's creepy. I don't like that. Cool.

0:49:23.040 --> 0:49:23.759
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, that's good.

0:49:24.000 --> 0:49:27.240
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, And then we hear a robot voice, Hello, Charlie,

0:49:27.360 --> 0:49:30.080
<v Speaker 6>welcome to game Box one point zero. He's been chosen

0:49:30.160 --> 0:49:33.319
<v Speaker 6>as a beta tester for the Ultimate Gaming Experience, a

0:49:33.360 --> 0:49:37.160
<v Speaker 6>new technology that customizes a game specifically to him. He's

0:49:37.200 --> 0:49:39.959
<v Speaker 6>instructed to scan real people from his life to play

0:49:40.040 --> 0:49:43.920
<v Speaker 6>characters in the game. Charlie thinks this sounds weird, but

0:49:44.400 --> 0:49:46.240
<v Speaker 6>is interrupted by a call from Kaplan.

0:49:46.600 --> 0:49:48.279
<v Speaker 4>He got a new game in the mail too. It's

0:49:48.320 --> 0:49:51.160
<v Speaker 4>so much fun, he convinces Charlie to give it a try.

0:49:51.280 --> 0:49:57.799
<v Speaker 5>Okay, So, so whatever this power is that has sent

0:49:57.880 --> 0:50:01.520
<v Speaker 5>the game video game already manipulate all the people in

0:50:01.560 --> 0:50:04.399
<v Speaker 5>his life, so he so, then why I can read

0:50:04.440 --> 0:50:07.799
<v Speaker 5>his memory and just put people in the game like

0:50:07.920 --> 0:50:10.080
<v Speaker 5>Kate and all stuff who he didn't take a picture of.

0:50:10.120 --> 0:50:11.879
<v Speaker 3>So why did he What is the point of taking

0:50:11.880 --> 0:50:12.880
<v Speaker 3>a picture of anybody?

0:50:13.280 --> 0:50:13.520
<v Speaker 5>Well?

0:50:13.680 --> 0:50:16.040
<v Speaker 4>I do think there was a point of.

0:50:17.360 --> 0:50:20.719
<v Speaker 6>Maybe it's very maybe this is very deep where the

0:50:20.719 --> 0:50:26.319
<v Speaker 6>illusion of control, the illusion of you know, you you

0:50:26.360 --> 0:50:29.240
<v Speaker 6>pick these characters, and then when he refuses to do it, they're.

0:50:29.000 --> 0:50:30.839
<v Speaker 4>Like, we're we didn't want to have to do this.

0:50:31.000 --> 0:50:33.920
<v Speaker 1>It's that idea, right, And I think it's also like

0:50:34.000 --> 0:50:38.600
<v Speaker 1>who he picks explains something about him right, even though

0:50:38.640 --> 0:50:41.359
<v Speaker 1>they can read the memories, allowing him to choose, like

0:50:41.640 --> 0:50:43.759
<v Speaker 1>who the villain's going to be, someone he doesn't like,

0:50:44.000 --> 0:50:49.960
<v Speaker 1>who his friends are going to be? That is just okay, yeah,

0:50:50.000 --> 0:50:52.440
<v Speaker 1>you're right, I guess it's just it's just another test

0:50:52.600 --> 0:50:56.680
<v Speaker 1>to read his brain, probably more to read his choices. Okay,

0:50:56.920 --> 0:50:57.720
<v Speaker 1>it's like a survey.

0:50:58.840 --> 0:51:00.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, okay, a yeah.

0:51:00.719 --> 0:51:02.200
<v Speaker 1>What he should have done is taken a photo of

0:51:02.640 --> 0:51:06.120
<v Speaker 1>his ex girlfriend, because that's the only no. Because it

0:51:06.120 --> 0:51:08.920
<v Speaker 1>also can read the memories of her, reads everybody's memory.

0:51:08.920 --> 0:51:11.719
<v Speaker 3>It's so she's there without him doing anything. He already has.

0:51:12.280 --> 0:51:13.399
<v Speaker 3>They've already faked his.

0:51:13.280 --> 0:51:18.839
<v Speaker 5>Friend calling, So it was like, well then what huh?

0:51:18.880 --> 0:51:20.759
<v Speaker 4>Well, at a different house, it's really good. At a

0:51:20.800 --> 0:51:23.080
<v Speaker 4>different house, Charlie's guy and.

0:51:23.080 --> 0:51:26.520
<v Speaker 6>Michelle, the typical girl forced to watch boys play video games.

0:51:26.719 --> 0:51:29.920
<v Speaker 6>She there gathered on the couch. Charlie immediately asks Michelle,

0:51:29.960 --> 0:51:32.160
<v Speaker 6>mind if I take your picture like a real creepoy

0:51:32.400 --> 0:51:35.160
<v Speaker 6>and he says it's for a video game, and she

0:51:35.320 --> 0:51:38.759
<v Speaker 6>says no because she looks terrible, Worth noting she looks

0:51:38.800 --> 0:51:42.800
<v Speaker 6>great great. Instead, Charlie takes a picture of his friend

0:51:42.880 --> 0:51:44.200
<v Speaker 6>John with what looks like a.

0:51:44.239 --> 0:51:45.160
<v Speaker 3>Epe pen yep.

0:51:45.760 --> 0:51:47.879
<v Speaker 4>Is that little thing he's holding up a.

0:51:47.840 --> 0:51:48.959
<v Speaker 3>Laser pointer or something?

0:51:49.080 --> 0:51:50.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, maybe a cat toy.

0:51:50.320 --> 0:51:53.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it was pretty good production design. Actually that was

0:51:53.719 --> 0:51:55.560
<v Speaker 1>cool because it's like you're like, oh, this is a

0:51:55.600 --> 0:51:59.840
<v Speaker 1>weird futuristic looking object. But I don't know. What bothered

0:51:59.840 --> 0:52:02.440
<v Speaker 1>me about this scene was the amount of video game noise.

0:52:03.360 --> 0:52:05.480
<v Speaker 1>We get it, they are playing a video game. I

0:52:05.520 --> 0:52:08.560
<v Speaker 1>don't need to hear it. The entire time was like

0:52:08.840 --> 0:52:12.120
<v Speaker 1>Jesus Christ's turned down the video game, trying trying to

0:52:12.120 --> 0:52:12.600
<v Speaker 1>watch him.

0:52:13.280 --> 0:52:16.440
<v Speaker 3>My god, just a down and watch it.

0:52:20.160 --> 0:52:24.360
<v Speaker 6>Who The camera flashes and appears to scan the boy completely.

0:52:24.520 --> 0:52:27.719
<v Speaker 6>Charlie scans another one of his friends too. Charlie says

0:52:27.719 --> 0:52:29.680
<v Speaker 6>he's just stopping by, but his friends complain that he

0:52:29.719 --> 0:52:32.040
<v Speaker 6>needs to be more social, so he promises to come

0:52:32.040 --> 0:52:33.920
<v Speaker 6>back to their house tomorrow for a barbecue.

0:52:34.239 --> 0:52:37.480
<v Speaker 4>Once he leaves me here, I was like, my god,

0:52:37.560 --> 0:52:38.400
<v Speaker 4>I hate this guy.

0:52:38.520 --> 0:52:39.480
<v Speaker 3>Like he's so sad.

0:52:39.840 --> 0:52:42.520
<v Speaker 1>I get it. The girl dumped you get over it.

0:52:43.040 --> 0:52:46.040
<v Speaker 1>I was like, we need to like have a reason

0:52:46.040 --> 0:52:49.160
<v Speaker 1>to like this guy, and fair enough, here, we get it.

0:52:49.520 --> 0:52:53.000
<v Speaker 4>Wouldn't you know she didn't just dump him? Uh uh?

0:52:53.600 --> 0:52:57.600
<v Speaker 3>She did and.

0:52:57.600 --> 0:52:58.400
<v Speaker 1>Here's where I was.

0:52:58.480 --> 0:53:01.480
<v Speaker 3>Like, so they say, miss shooting in the history of his.

0:53:01.640 --> 0:53:05.200
<v Speaker 10>Girl, before you get there, Before you get there, when

0:53:05.239 --> 0:53:08.640
<v Speaker 10>you find out when somebody says his girlfriend was shot,

0:53:09.719 --> 0:53:13.280
<v Speaker 10>because she's dead, she was shot and killed.

0:53:13.239 --> 0:53:17.600
<v Speaker 3>They just move on, hold on, so many questions. Somebody

0:53:17.680 --> 0:53:18.239
<v Speaker 3>was shot? What?

0:53:18.480 --> 0:53:21.600
<v Speaker 4>How? Why? She just lets it go happens?

0:53:23.280 --> 0:53:27.360
<v Speaker 1>Imagine it's not like, Jesus, how many people you know

0:53:27.480 --> 0:53:29.400
<v Speaker 1>been shot? Like, you want to know about that? You

0:53:29.400 --> 0:53:30.920
<v Speaker 1>want to like, what tell.

0:53:30.760 --> 0:53:34.120
<v Speaker 5>Me, Jesus, that's especially how it actually happens.

0:53:34.360 --> 0:53:37.200
<v Speaker 1>Yes, it's a crazy story. Let me tell you.

0:53:37.360 --> 0:53:39.000
<v Speaker 3>She walked into a fence.

0:53:40.200 --> 0:53:42.239
<v Speaker 1>This story, she chose the wrong vacant lot to walk

0:53:42.280 --> 0:53:46.040
<v Speaker 1>into and a cop shot her. Jesus Christ, Oh, you

0:53:46.080 --> 0:53:46.680
<v Speaker 1>won't believe it.

0:53:47.719 --> 0:53:51.880
<v Speaker 5>Also, you should let him take my picture.

0:53:52.480 --> 0:53:55.360
<v Speaker 1>Charlie's like, she was tragedy. He should be suing the

0:53:55.480 --> 0:53:57.919
<v Speaker 1>LA b D right now because he could have made

0:53:57.960 --> 0:53:58.800
<v Speaker 1>millions of dollars.

0:53:59.120 --> 0:54:05.400
<v Speaker 3>That was literally mid laughing. Yeah, let's go to the fence. Charlie.

0:54:06.560 --> 0:54:10.960
<v Speaker 3>Oh god, what's happening? The worst shooting in history.

0:54:12.040 --> 0:54:14.960
<v Speaker 6>Well, back at Charlie's, he's looking sad as hell.

0:54:15.040 --> 0:54:16.400
<v Speaker 4>It's really good in his living.

0:54:16.239 --> 0:54:19.800
<v Speaker 6>Room watching old videos of him and Kate at the beach.

0:54:19.840 --> 0:54:22.080
<v Speaker 6>He's chasing her around and telling her to do a

0:54:22.160 --> 0:54:25.040
<v Speaker 6>sexy dance. We this was freezing when we did so.

0:54:25.040 --> 0:54:26.799
<v Speaker 6>This was the only time, why was we were ever

0:54:26.920 --> 0:54:30.200
<v Speaker 6>outside of the real world screen in the real world.

0:54:31.160 --> 0:54:33.960
<v Speaker 1>Well this in the in the shooting are scenes outside

0:54:34.000 --> 0:54:34.440
<v Speaker 1>of green.

0:54:34.280 --> 0:54:35.560
<v Speaker 4>Screen, outside of green screen.

0:54:35.640 --> 0:54:35.920
<v Speaker 6>Wow.

0:54:36.239 --> 0:54:38.240
<v Speaker 4>And uh and.

0:54:38.840 --> 0:54:44.680
<v Speaker 6>It was freezing, like seven am at the beach and uh,

0:54:44.760 --> 0:54:47.920
<v Speaker 6>you know, we had approximately one hour and it was like,

0:54:48.040 --> 0:54:49.080
<v Speaker 6>all right, let's get.

0:54:48.920 --> 0:54:50.560
<v Speaker 4>All the footage we could possibly get.

0:54:50.840 --> 0:54:53.319
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, because that just ketches don't work that well in

0:54:53.360 --> 0:54:53.840
<v Speaker 5>that cold.

0:54:54.760 --> 0:54:56.680
<v Speaker 3>So we got to Yeah, you gotta get it as

0:54:56.760 --> 0:54:57.319
<v Speaker 3>much as you can.

0:54:58.520 --> 0:55:00.719
<v Speaker 6>Charlie turns the TV off and she his focus to

0:55:00.760 --> 0:55:03.480
<v Speaker 6>a framed photo of Kate nearby. He grabs the vap

0:55:03.560 --> 0:55:05.239
<v Speaker 6>pen and is about to take a picture of her,

0:55:05.280 --> 0:55:09.040
<v Speaker 6>but he decides against it. Instead, he puts the headset

0:55:09.120 --> 0:55:11.319
<v Speaker 6>back on, and he learns about his next step to

0:55:11.320 --> 0:55:13.960
<v Speaker 6>take a picture of who the video game villain will be.

0:55:14.440 --> 0:55:16.640
<v Speaker 6>The game will be enhanced if he captures someone he

0:55:16.680 --> 0:55:20.040
<v Speaker 6>truly hates. Charlie grabs a scrapbook and opens it to

0:55:20.080 --> 0:55:23.280
<v Speaker 6>reveal a newspaper clipping of a police officer. The headline

0:55:23.280 --> 0:55:26.520
<v Speaker 6>explains he was responsible for a shooting and acquitted of

0:55:26.560 --> 0:55:29.920
<v Speaker 6>all charges. Charlie gets a black and white flashback of

0:55:30.000 --> 0:55:33.040
<v Speaker 6>him and Kate jokingly sneaking into a gated area.

0:55:33.080 --> 0:55:34.120
<v Speaker 3>He brought daylight.

0:55:34.719 --> 0:55:39.040
<v Speaker 1>What I have so many more questions now it's it's

0:55:39.080 --> 0:55:41.560
<v Speaker 1>answering why she was shot. But all it does is

0:55:41.640 --> 0:55:45.640
<v Speaker 1>create Okay, why were you breaking into a vacant latch together?

0:55:46.040 --> 0:55:47.439
<v Speaker 4>How was this so close to the beach?

0:55:47.680 --> 0:55:49.960
<v Speaker 1>Right? I mean, if it was at night and you

0:55:50.040 --> 0:55:53.239
<v Speaker 1>were going to break into like you know how some

0:55:53.920 --> 0:55:56.759
<v Speaker 1>fun sexy times in the place somewhere that you weren't

0:55:56.760 --> 0:55:57.319
<v Speaker 1>supposed to be.

0:55:57.880 --> 0:55:59.040
<v Speaker 3>If it was, I don't know.

0:55:59.120 --> 0:56:02.279
<v Speaker 1>But why does he shoot you too? Like, my god,

0:56:02.360 --> 0:56:07.960
<v Speaker 1>let your hands up, you don't reach for anything.

0:56:08.080 --> 0:56:10.200
<v Speaker 4>There's no he was high.

0:56:10.239 --> 0:56:11.400
<v Speaker 3>He was supposed to be high.

0:56:11.440 --> 0:56:16.160
<v Speaker 5>I get that later, but it's still like, it's but.

0:56:16.120 --> 0:56:17.880
<v Speaker 1>What's he's just hanging out in the corner.

0:56:17.719 --> 0:56:21.000
<v Speaker 3>Of doing heroin pills? But if he was like with

0:56:21.080 --> 0:56:21.719
<v Speaker 3>a group.

0:56:21.480 --> 0:56:24.520
<v Speaker 1>Of other people like sketchy, right.

0:56:24.480 --> 0:56:27.600
<v Speaker 4>Or if we were like what are you doing drugs?

0:56:28.640 --> 0:56:31.200
<v Speaker 6>You know, anything, anything to even make him feel threatened

0:56:31.239 --> 0:56:34.320
<v Speaker 6>in any way reach mething.

0:56:34.400 --> 0:56:36.520
<v Speaker 3>But it was just you walk. This is the best

0:56:36.600 --> 0:56:37.800
<v Speaker 3>day ever passed.

0:56:45.200 --> 0:56:47.200
<v Speaker 4>They don't see a cop on the other side. This

0:56:47.239 --> 0:56:47.719
<v Speaker 4>movie's good.

0:56:47.760 --> 0:56:49.960
<v Speaker 6>And when Kate sneaks in first, the cop tells her

0:56:50.000 --> 0:56:51.960
<v Speaker 6>to freeze and then shoots.

0:56:51.520 --> 0:56:53.000
<v Speaker 4>Her right in the chest.

0:56:54.080 --> 0:56:55.000
<v Speaker 3>Did you get the squib?

0:56:55.680 --> 0:56:55.920
<v Speaker 4>I did?

0:56:55.960 --> 0:56:57.319
<v Speaker 3>Did you get all scripped up? Did you get did

0:56:57.360 --> 0:56:58.000
<v Speaker 3>it burn at all?

0:56:59.440 --> 0:56:59.480
<v Speaker 1>No?

0:56:59.840 --> 0:57:02.280
<v Speaker 3>I okay, that's good. Have you been squibbed ever, rider?

0:57:03.960 --> 0:57:04.200
<v Speaker 5>No?

0:57:04.719 --> 0:57:06.200
<v Speaker 3>Never, You've never been shot in anything?

0:57:07.680 --> 0:57:10.040
<v Speaker 1>Is that true? I think that's true. I don't think

0:57:10.080 --> 0:57:13.239
<v Speaker 1>I've ever gotten squibbed. I've been around squibs. I've seen them.

0:57:13.280 --> 0:57:15.640
<v Speaker 4>And you know, when I explain to our dear listeners

0:57:15.680 --> 0:57:16.520
<v Speaker 4>what a squib.

0:57:16.280 --> 0:57:20.360
<v Speaker 1>Is a mini explosive and with the condom, with the

0:57:20.400 --> 0:57:23.520
<v Speaker 1>condom full of blood. Yeah, and then it just pops

0:57:23.560 --> 0:57:26.440
<v Speaker 1>and and and the explosive. Usually they pre rip the

0:57:26.480 --> 0:57:29.600
<v Speaker 1>clothes too, so their clothes look like they blow out.

0:57:30.680 --> 0:57:32.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean, they're really not used anymore because now it's

0:57:32.480 --> 0:57:34.640
<v Speaker 1>all visual effects, so you don't Yeah.

0:57:34.520 --> 0:57:35.920
<v Speaker 5>It's the only time we're back in the day a

0:57:35.920 --> 0:57:37.280
<v Speaker 5>condom full of blood was a cool thing.

0:57:41.160 --> 0:57:43.919
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, kind I've never been squibbed it.

0:57:43.840 --> 0:57:45.840
<v Speaker 5>Was it's fun too to like, I mean, I've never

0:57:45.920 --> 0:57:47.680
<v Speaker 5>been fully shot up, but I had one done for

0:57:48.160 --> 0:57:50.000
<v Speaker 5>And then you've got have you ever been in anything

0:57:50.000 --> 0:57:53.880
<v Speaker 5>where you were they're shooting like they're ricocheting around you,

0:57:53.920 --> 0:57:56.280
<v Speaker 5>so it's like a tree is exploding and like popping

0:57:56.320 --> 0:57:58.160
<v Speaker 5>off things on trees. Like that's fun too. Is that

0:57:58.240 --> 0:58:01.320
<v Speaker 5>kind of that movie magic, old school movie magic?

0:58:01.320 --> 0:58:02.439
<v Speaker 3>That stuff really neat?

0:58:02.800 --> 0:58:18.160
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, Well, Kate trust falls to the ground and then

0:58:18.280 --> 0:58:21.720
<v Speaker 6>Charlie is holding her lifeless in his lap. Back in reality,

0:58:21.880 --> 0:58:24.360
<v Speaker 6>Charlie angrily takes a picture of the cop and the

0:58:24.440 --> 0:58:26.840
<v Speaker 6>video game warns him that once he begins his ultimate

0:58:26.880 --> 0:58:30.560
<v Speaker 6>gaming experience, he won't be able to quit. Charlie takes

0:58:30.560 --> 0:58:32.280
<v Speaker 6>the warning with a grain of salt and presses the

0:58:32.360 --> 0:58:33.720
<v Speaker 6>dreaded start.

0:58:33.400 --> 0:58:35.880
<v Speaker 4>Button, and we're now in the game.

0:58:36.280 --> 0:58:39.240
<v Speaker 6>Charlie's body pixel eight and he's wearing an all white

0:58:39.360 --> 0:58:43.960
<v Speaker 6>jumpsuit against an all white background. His depressed wearing sweats

0:58:44.000 --> 0:58:47.080
<v Speaker 6>all day vibe has morphed into spiky hair and a smile.

0:58:47.680 --> 0:58:51.000
<v Speaker 6>The game gives him options of where to start zombie Land,

0:58:51.120 --> 0:58:53.480
<v Speaker 6>crime Spree, or alien planet.

0:58:53.280 --> 0:58:56.680
<v Speaker 1>And immediately I was like, my gun Crime Spree seems

0:58:56.720 --> 0:59:00.440
<v Speaker 1>a little insensitive given what we've just seen in your flashback, right,

0:59:00.640 --> 0:59:03.360
<v Speaker 1>and yet he chooses Crime Spirit that's what he wants.

0:59:03.480 --> 0:59:07.920
<v Speaker 4>Yes, it sounds seems so fun, I think with guns.

0:59:08.600 --> 0:59:09.000
<v Speaker 3>It is, though.

0:59:09.040 --> 0:59:11.160
<v Speaker 5>This is like around the first grand theft auto I think,

0:59:11.160 --> 0:59:12.840
<v Speaker 5>which is like the biggest thing in the world.

0:59:13.160 --> 0:59:14.800
<v Speaker 1>Your girlfriend was killed?

0:59:15.240 --> 0:59:17.240
<v Speaker 4>How do we an these graphics?

0:59:18.600 --> 0:59:19.440
<v Speaker 3>Uh? Bad?

0:59:19.880 --> 0:59:22.080
<v Speaker 4>Okay, that's good. I like that. That's good.

0:59:23.360 --> 0:59:27.479
<v Speaker 6>Charlie picks Crime Spree and is immediately transported there. Rap

0:59:27.600 --> 0:59:30.280
<v Speaker 6>music plays as Charlie, now in sunglasses in a hip suit,

0:59:30.360 --> 0:59:34.280
<v Speaker 6>walks through city streets amongst other pixelated people and speeding cars.

0:59:34.440 --> 0:59:36.880
<v Speaker 6>He gets new instructions. If he's wounded, a hard icon

0:59:36.960 --> 0:59:39.760
<v Speaker 6>will restore his health. He has no health meter, so

0:59:39.800 --> 0:59:42.280
<v Speaker 6>he's going to have to gauge his strength himself. He

0:59:42.280 --> 0:59:44.720
<v Speaker 6>can use whatever weapon he'd like. And now a newly

0:59:44.800 --> 0:59:47.560
<v Speaker 6>confident Charlie is adamant. He will learn as he goes.

0:59:47.920 --> 0:59:49.960
<v Speaker 6>And so the game begins and it's all very grand

0:59:49.960 --> 0:59:50.760
<v Speaker 6>theft autos.

0:59:51.120 --> 0:59:53.880
<v Speaker 1>We beat up this random black guy and take his car.

0:59:56.240 --> 1:00:00.840
<v Speaker 4>Yes, yes, And then it happens, gets into the car.

1:00:00.960 --> 1:00:03.840
<v Speaker 1>And the music kicks in and the song is sane.

1:00:04.400 --> 1:00:05.640
<v Speaker 3>This is not a game.

1:00:06.800 --> 1:00:11.920
<v Speaker 1>Those are the lyrics. This is not a game. First

1:00:11.920 --> 1:00:14.280
<v Speaker 1>instance of.

1:00:16.360 --> 1:00:24.640
<v Speaker 3>Lyrics Kate was shot, damn good job getting the car.

1:00:24.800 --> 1:00:28.680
<v Speaker 3>Go the press guy, eat sandwich.

1:00:29.320 --> 1:00:35.320
<v Speaker 6>After the Hijacketsish, he asks the game what the ultimate

1:00:35.360 --> 1:00:38.360
<v Speaker 6>goal is, and the revoice responds only to stay alive.

1:00:38.920 --> 1:00:41.120
<v Speaker 6>Charlie finally arrives at a nightclub with a line of

1:00:41.160 --> 1:00:44.080
<v Speaker 6>people outside. The bouncer recognizes him and leads him to Aushan,

1:00:44.160 --> 1:00:47.240
<v Speaker 6>who's expecting him. Through narration, we learned that Aushon was

1:00:47.280 --> 1:00:50.120
<v Speaker 6>a low level hood until someone slashed his throat. Then

1:00:50.200 --> 1:00:53.240
<v Speaker 6>he came back as a bat. Aushan is practicing in

1:00:53.280 --> 1:00:56.280
<v Speaker 6>a dojo hidden inside the crowded clouds.

1:00:56.440 --> 1:01:02.400
<v Speaker 1>Always all crowded, all crowd of clubs in the early aughts,

1:01:02.520 --> 1:01:05.080
<v Speaker 1>late nineties through I feel like you're always a club

1:01:05.120 --> 1:01:06.520
<v Speaker 1>scene to go meet the drug boss.

1:01:06.520 --> 1:01:11.040
<v Speaker 6>It's just yeah, well they're money, they're money laundering. The

1:01:11.120 --> 1:01:13.400
<v Speaker 6>villain is wearing that creepy mask the killer and the

1:01:13.440 --> 1:01:15.720
<v Speaker 6>opening was wearing, and once he takes it off, we

1:01:15.760 --> 1:01:16.560
<v Speaker 6>see that it's the.

1:01:16.520 --> 1:01:18.200
<v Speaker 4>Police officer who killed Kate.

1:01:18.920 --> 1:01:21.520
<v Speaker 6>Charlie is told he'll need to retrieve a briefcase for

1:01:21.560 --> 1:01:23.800
<v Speaker 6>the villain, and when he questions why, he's told he

1:01:23.840 --> 1:01:26.840
<v Speaker 6>has no choice on his way out, Charlie casually accept

1:01:26.840 --> 1:01:31.080
<v Speaker 6>a gun is just on his way here.

1:01:32.200 --> 1:01:34.520
<v Speaker 1>Then he beats up somebody else it takes their motorcycle,

1:01:34.800 --> 1:01:38.200
<v Speaker 1>and the music says, I am the man. I do

1:01:38.560 --> 1:01:39.680
<v Speaker 1>just what I want to do.

1:01:40.400 --> 1:01:45.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's the sun.

1:01:48.640 --> 1:01:50.560
<v Speaker 6>Well, he steals the motorcycle and he ends up in

1:01:50.600 --> 1:01:53.160
<v Speaker 6>a tough south Side neighborhood. He spots some bad guys

1:01:53.200 --> 1:01:55.560
<v Speaker 6>holding the briefcase hostage, so he ducks for cover and

1:01:55.600 --> 1:01:58.280
<v Speaker 6>finds some extra health for later. With that, he makes

1:01:58.320 --> 1:02:00.360
<v Speaker 6>a bee line to the criminals and opens fire, only

1:02:00.440 --> 1:02:02.640
<v Speaker 6>to find out a character he has killed has one

1:02:02.680 --> 1:02:06.280
<v Speaker 6>of his friend's faces. Charlie's disturbed and asks the game

1:02:06.320 --> 1:02:07.880
<v Speaker 6>to wipe all the data he uploaded.

1:02:08.080 --> 1:02:09.480
<v Speaker 4>But it's just not possible.

1:02:09.520 --> 1:02:10.720
<v Speaker 5>See and this is when I thought it was gonna

1:02:10.720 --> 1:02:13.240
<v Speaker 5>be like, oh, and now so he's actually killing his friends.

1:02:14.040 --> 1:02:15.000
<v Speaker 3>He just killed his friend.

1:02:15.120 --> 1:02:18.080
<v Speaker 1>That's not a bad twist, it was that happened.

1:02:18.200 --> 1:02:20.240
<v Speaker 5>I also did like the fact and I thought this

1:02:20.360 --> 1:02:23.320
<v Speaker 5>was it was interesting they blew past it, but that

1:02:23.760 --> 1:02:26.320
<v Speaker 5>he didn't get any special powers for being in there.

1:02:26.360 --> 1:02:29.560
<v Speaker 5>It's like just what you got. It's like, that's it, right,

1:02:29.600 --> 1:02:31.680
<v Speaker 5>that's it, which was interesting. It's like, yeah, it's it's

1:02:31.720 --> 1:02:33.800
<v Speaker 5>actually you. We're not making you super strong or any

1:02:33.840 --> 1:02:34.480
<v Speaker 5>of that kind of stuff.

1:02:34.480 --> 1:02:37.120
<v Speaker 4>That makes sense, right, Yeah.

1:02:37.240 --> 1:02:39.800
<v Speaker 6>Charlie continues with his mission anyway, and retrieves a key

1:02:39.800 --> 1:02:42.200
<v Speaker 6>to unlock the car trunk. As soon as he opens it,

1:02:42.280 --> 1:02:43.040
<v Speaker 6>he finds Kate.

1:02:43.240 --> 1:02:43.840
<v Speaker 4>She's alive.

1:02:44.320 --> 1:02:46.240
<v Speaker 6>She asks Charlie to help her out, but she doesn't

1:02:46.280 --> 1:02:49.560
<v Speaker 6>recognize him or respond to her name, and then he's shot.

1:02:49.960 --> 1:02:52.439
<v Speaker 6>He falls to the ground and he feels actual pain.

1:02:52.920 --> 1:02:55.960
<v Speaker 6>He asks the game why it hurts, and they simply explain, well,

1:02:56.040 --> 1:02:58.520
<v Speaker 6>he's been wounded. He asks to leave the game, but

1:02:58.560 --> 1:03:01.680
<v Speaker 6>he's reminded he can't quit. The gunman is inching closer

1:03:01.680 --> 1:03:04.400
<v Speaker 6>and closer, so Charlie quickly rattles off exit, pause, quit,

1:03:04.480 --> 1:03:07.320
<v Speaker 6>whatever I have to say, and then flash, he's back

1:03:07.320 --> 1:03:09.160
<v Speaker 6>in the real world, so you can't quit.

1:03:10.240 --> 1:03:13.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well, it only gives him one more chance after this.

1:03:13.520 --> 1:03:16.240
<v Speaker 5>Right, But if he decided to not put the thing

1:03:16.280 --> 1:03:18.640
<v Speaker 5>back on again, then that would have just been it.

1:03:19.280 --> 1:03:20.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, So you can't.

1:03:20.760 --> 1:03:23.880
<v Speaker 1>Know because later it just enters his life. He's back

1:03:23.920 --> 1:03:26.680
<v Speaker 1>in just because he's in a coma.

1:03:25.880 --> 1:03:27.920
<v Speaker 5>Right, But I think that's because he goes back in

1:03:27.960 --> 1:03:30.640
<v Speaker 5>a second time, and then he quits again, and after

1:03:30.720 --> 1:03:33.000
<v Speaker 5>that is when the flashbacks really start to get him,

1:03:33.080 --> 1:03:35.560
<v Speaker 5>or the hallucinations really start to get him. He's seing

1:03:35.600 --> 1:03:37.880
<v Speaker 5>a little bit, but if he just never puts the

1:03:37.920 --> 1:03:40.840
<v Speaker 5>thing on again, then he's done.

1:03:41.400 --> 1:03:45.120
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, so you're right that this time they let him quit.

1:03:45.160 --> 1:03:47.680
<v Speaker 6>And then the like to writer's point, the voice says,

1:03:47.920 --> 1:03:51.200
<v Speaker 6>we can't keep helping you, Charlie. Right, so they've helped

1:03:51.280 --> 1:03:56.400
<v Speaker 6>him this time, but yeah, you can't quit at least once.

1:03:56.640 --> 1:03:59.800
<v Speaker 3>Okay, just trying to get the rules down. They seem

1:03:59.800 --> 1:04:00.000
<v Speaker 3>a lot.

1:04:00.240 --> 1:04:06.040
<v Speaker 6>Buddled, really, it's good depressed looking. Charlie springs up, holding

1:04:06.080 --> 1:04:08.280
<v Speaker 6>his shoulder in disbelief. He takes the helmet off and

1:04:08.360 --> 1:04:11.000
<v Speaker 6>notices it's already nine thirty six in the morning. He

1:04:11.080 --> 1:04:12.760
<v Speaker 6>rushes out of the house to his car, dropping his

1:04:12.840 --> 1:04:14.520
<v Speaker 6>keys along the way, and when he stands up from

1:04:14.520 --> 1:04:16.960
<v Speaker 6>retrieving them, he sees the gunman in the reflection of

1:04:17.000 --> 1:04:17.440
<v Speaker 6>his window.

1:04:18.560 --> 1:04:19.840
<v Speaker 3>This is where they also missed something.

1:04:20.480 --> 1:04:22.720
<v Speaker 5>He should have gotten up, and once he gotten up,

1:04:22.720 --> 1:04:25.600
<v Speaker 5>he should have been like ah, like his shoulder h

1:04:26.080 --> 1:04:28.320
<v Speaker 5>like they Actually it still hurts in the real war,

1:04:28.840 --> 1:04:31.160
<v Speaker 5>like the guy who's all his organs were liquefied by

1:04:31.200 --> 1:04:33.440
<v Speaker 5>the fake sword or whatever in the beginning, right, there

1:04:33.440 --> 1:04:35.360
<v Speaker 5>should have been some damage in the real world due

1:04:35.400 --> 1:04:36.360
<v Speaker 5>to what's happening.

1:04:36.000 --> 1:04:36.400
<v Speaker 3>In the game.

1:04:37.440 --> 1:04:40.280
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, He quickly turns around, but no one's there. He

1:04:40.320 --> 1:04:42.440
<v Speaker 6>gets into his car and speeds off to work. And

1:04:42.440 --> 1:04:45.280
<v Speaker 6>then we're at TBI Technologies. Charlie rushes in and asks

1:04:45.360 --> 1:04:47.840
<v Speaker 6>Kaplin if he experienced and anything weird with the game,

1:04:47.840 --> 1:04:50.360
<v Speaker 6>but Kaplin has no idea what he's talking about. He

1:04:50.400 --> 1:04:53.040
<v Speaker 6>claims he never even called Charlie yesterday. And this is

1:04:53.040 --> 1:04:55.600
<v Speaker 6>also when I noticed Caplin has a large poster of

1:04:55.640 --> 1:04:57.240
<v Speaker 6>a sandwich in his cubicle.

1:04:58.280 --> 1:05:01.160
<v Speaker 4>Sweet, I know needs that I do.

1:05:02.480 --> 1:05:05.120
<v Speaker 6>Their supervisor walks into scold them and tells Charlie he

1:05:05.120 --> 1:05:08.800
<v Speaker 6>looks like crap. Then, after sending a single email, Charlie

1:05:08.800 --> 1:05:11.400
<v Speaker 6>pulls out his wallet to look at a picture of

1:05:11.520 --> 1:05:13.960
<v Speaker 6>Kate holding birthday balloons.

1:05:14.000 --> 1:05:15.800
<v Speaker 1>This is where he says the email, there's something about

1:05:15.840 --> 1:05:20.560
<v Speaker 1>level four. There's a I.

1:05:20.520 --> 1:05:21.439
<v Speaker 3>Want to look at Kate again.

1:05:23.600 --> 1:05:26.200
<v Speaker 1>You just cut to Patrick Renner pulling out a sandwich

1:05:26.240 --> 1:05:27.960
<v Speaker 1>picture in his wallet.

1:05:28.600 --> 1:05:29.880
<v Speaker 3>Remember when I ate this last.

1:05:31.520 --> 1:05:35.680
<v Speaker 5>Cowich breaking into it too, like a company picking the

1:05:35.760 --> 1:05:37.120
<v Speaker 5>cop shooting it like.

1:05:37.120 --> 1:05:56.680
<v Speaker 11>Oh god, my sandwich just holding sad.

1:05:56.800 --> 1:05:59.240
<v Speaker 4>Music plays in the background because she did.

1:05:59.680 --> 1:06:01.959
<v Speaker 6>And then when we're back at Charlie's house, Charlie's staring

1:06:01.960 --> 1:06:04.320
<v Speaker 6>at the terrifying new video game helmet and confusion. When

1:06:04.320 --> 1:06:06.800
<v Speaker 6>the phone rings it's his friend from the barbecue. Charlie

1:06:06.800 --> 1:06:09.080
<v Speaker 6>blows them off and puts the helmet back on before

1:06:09.120 --> 1:06:11.440
<v Speaker 6>he's transported back into the game. He asks if Kaplin

1:06:11.520 --> 1:06:14.720
<v Speaker 6>really called yesterday. The robot game voice explains they just

1:06:14.760 --> 1:06:17.200
<v Speaker 6>made him hear what he needed to hear. Charlie asks

1:06:17.240 --> 1:06:18.640
<v Speaker 6>to be put back in the game so he can

1:06:18.680 --> 1:06:21.120
<v Speaker 6>see Kate again, and so we are back in the

1:06:21.120 --> 1:06:22.760
<v Speaker 6>game world Charlie picks up.

1:06:22.880 --> 1:06:25.320
<v Speaker 1>So it seems like there's this whole free will element

1:06:25.440 --> 1:06:28.040
<v Speaker 1>that's like necessary, and I do think that's story wise.

1:06:28.080 --> 1:06:30.919
<v Speaker 1>It is right, like if he was just trapped from

1:06:30.920 --> 1:06:33.320
<v Speaker 1>the moment night he put on the thing the movie,

1:06:33.360 --> 1:06:35.240
<v Speaker 1>would he used to want to go back. Yes, he

1:06:35.320 --> 1:06:37.400
<v Speaker 1>has to want to go back in and keep choosing

1:06:37.440 --> 1:06:39.680
<v Speaker 1>it just for the sake of story. But you're right,

1:06:39.880 --> 1:06:42.440
<v Speaker 1>for real logic reasons if the video game was truly

1:06:42.480 --> 1:06:44.960
<v Speaker 1>an evil mind control device, it would have just trapped

1:06:45.000 --> 1:06:46.640
<v Speaker 1>him the second and put it on and be done.

1:06:46.760 --> 1:06:49.320
<v Speaker 1>And it's never explained why it would give him the

1:06:49.320 --> 1:06:50.760
<v Speaker 1>option of fruit like to.

1:06:50.760 --> 1:06:54.400
<v Speaker 4>Not Why why does it seem to him to choose it?

1:06:54.520 --> 1:06:54.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

1:06:55.000 --> 1:06:55.160
<v Speaker 3>Right?

1:06:55.160 --> 1:06:56.240
<v Speaker 4>Why does it? Yeah?

1:06:56.280 --> 1:06:59.440
<v Speaker 6>Like, Also, I'm assuming did they not do this for

1:06:59.480 --> 1:07:01.120
<v Speaker 6>the kid who before him?

1:07:01.280 --> 1:07:03.920
<v Speaker 4>Like did they did? They were they hoping for someone?

1:07:04.040 --> 1:07:05.320
<v Speaker 4>Maybe the point of the.

1:07:05.280 --> 1:07:10.400
<v Speaker 6>Game is actually to fix your life, so they do

1:07:10.640 --> 1:07:12.000
<v Speaker 6>want you to win?

1:07:12.360 --> 1:07:13.200
<v Speaker 3>Well, it keeps saying.

1:07:13.240 --> 1:07:14.800
<v Speaker 5>One of the lines he keeps saying, is this is

1:07:14.840 --> 1:07:17.160
<v Speaker 5>not a punishment Charlie, right, Like.

1:07:17.160 --> 1:07:17.960
<v Speaker 3>Why are you doing this to me?

1:07:18.120 --> 1:07:20.680
<v Speaker 1>And he does win, right, I mean he wins by

1:07:20.720 --> 1:07:23.880
<v Speaker 1>beating the game at its own game, Like, he doesn't

1:07:23.880 --> 1:07:26.560
<v Speaker 1>play by its rules. He you know, finds a way

1:07:26.600 --> 1:07:28.720
<v Speaker 1>to like sort of best it. And then it's like

1:07:28.800 --> 1:07:30.640
<v Speaker 1>impressed by that and sets him free.

1:07:31.000 --> 1:07:32.680
<v Speaker 6>Well, not only does it set him free, but then

1:07:32.920 --> 1:07:38.000
<v Speaker 6>Charlie sets himself free from living this depressed right.

1:07:37.680 --> 1:07:41.520
<v Speaker 5>He decides video game Kate kind of comes back in

1:07:41.600 --> 1:07:46.960
<v Speaker 5>another form exactly yeah, or is.

1:07:46.880 --> 1:07:49.160
<v Speaker 1>He still in the simulation for the rest of his

1:07:49.240 --> 1:07:50.240
<v Speaker 1>life At the.

1:07:50.280 --> 1:07:55.120
<v Speaker 5>Ends that's the after after ending, is just still him

1:07:55.120 --> 1:07:56.760
<v Speaker 5>in the hospital bed exactly.

1:07:57.400 --> 1:07:59.640
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's what nymarn El Street does. Right, It's

1:07:59.640 --> 1:08:01.600
<v Speaker 1>like we're we think he's gone, and then we're still

1:08:01.640 --> 1:08:02.520
<v Speaker 1>in the dream at the end.

1:08:02.880 --> 1:08:06.080
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, Charlie picks up from exactly where he was shot.

1:08:06.120 --> 1:08:08.000
<v Speaker 6>He uses his health to get back to normal, then

1:08:08.040 --> 1:08:11.080
<v Speaker 6>shoots the gunman and rescues Kate. Now with the briefcase

1:08:11.440 --> 1:08:13.920
<v Speaker 6>briefcase cuff to Kate in the passenger seat, he speeds

1:08:13.960 --> 1:08:16.080
<v Speaker 6>off in the bad guy's car. Kate breaks the news

1:08:16.080 --> 1:08:18.360
<v Speaker 6>that her name is actually Princess and she's a real

1:08:18.640 --> 1:08:19.840
<v Speaker 6>cold fish to him.

1:08:20.080 --> 1:08:22.840
<v Speaker 1>So in the script, did it say princess for all eights?

1:08:23.320 --> 1:08:24.160
<v Speaker 1>All right, princess?

1:08:24.479 --> 1:08:29.000
<v Speaker 6>It's a princess, lash Kate? Really yeah, if I remember correctly,

1:08:29.120 --> 1:08:30.560
<v Speaker 6>I have a terrible memory.

1:08:30.360 --> 1:08:32.439
<v Speaker 3>So take that with a great Do you remember making

1:08:32.479 --> 1:08:33.479
<v Speaker 3>this script?

1:08:34.080 --> 1:08:34.240
<v Speaker 1>No?

1:08:34.280 --> 1:08:36.479
<v Speaker 6>I do not have a copy of the script. I

1:08:36.520 --> 1:08:39.519
<v Speaker 6>wonder if Nate does, I hope. So she asks it's

1:08:39.520 --> 1:08:42.200
<v Speaker 6>really good. She asks how long Charlie's worked at the observatory,

1:08:42.240 --> 1:08:44.759
<v Speaker 6>and then quickly realizes he isn't there to save her.

1:08:44.920 --> 1:08:47.320
<v Speaker 6>He's there for the briefcase. Charlie says he's going to

1:08:47.360 --> 1:08:50.080
<v Speaker 6>aushan and she scoffs, then punches him, causing him to

1:08:50.120 --> 1:08:53.280
<v Speaker 6>swerve to the side of the road.

1:08:53.320 --> 1:08:56.200
<v Speaker 1>The whole like the princess who's there to be saved.

1:08:56.240 --> 1:08:57.360
<v Speaker 1>But then she's like, screw you.

1:08:58.120 --> 1:08:59.320
<v Speaker 3>And she's certainly not Kate.

1:09:01.040 --> 1:09:03.000
<v Speaker 5>This is not a woman who just gets shot walking

1:09:03.040 --> 1:09:07.200
<v Speaker 5>into an abandoned lot princess.

1:09:09.439 --> 1:09:11.320
<v Speaker 6>She jumps out and walks away, but he's able to

1:09:11.400 --> 1:09:13.400
<v Speaker 6>quickly catch up because she does not walk very fast.

1:09:13.760 --> 1:09:16.000
<v Speaker 6>He promises he won't hurt her and suggests they go

1:09:16.080 --> 1:09:18.600
<v Speaker 6>somewhere they can be alone. She assumes he means for

1:09:18.640 --> 1:09:22.200
<v Speaker 6>sexual relations, but he clarifies just to talk and eat.

1:09:22.800 --> 1:09:26.400
<v Speaker 6>Then he shots the familiar depressed dude cafe.

1:09:26.600 --> 1:09:34.840
<v Speaker 4>They transport inside.

1:09:34.920 --> 1:09:47.599
<v Speaker 3>I'll take the prosta. Everybody depressed all the time.

1:09:49.600 --> 1:09:52.280
<v Speaker 6>They both ordered the same thing, a roast beef sandwich

1:09:52.280 --> 1:09:56.760
<v Speaker 6>with extra horseradish on the side. Charlie asks her, and

1:09:56.800 --> 1:10:00.479
<v Speaker 6>it all aligns perfectly with Kate's. Then he he notices

1:10:00.560 --> 1:10:03.759
<v Speaker 6>that Kate and Charlie carving is on the table. Charlie

1:10:03.800 --> 1:10:05.880
<v Speaker 6>asks about the briefcase she's cuffed too, but all she'll

1:10:05.920 --> 1:10:07.479
<v Speaker 6>say is that it needs to go to the professor

1:10:07.479 --> 1:10:11.040
<v Speaker 6>at Blue Mountain Observatory. Charlie then notices some shady people

1:10:11.080 --> 1:10:13.760
<v Speaker 6>in the cafe and realizes they're being ambushed. He tries

1:10:13.800 --> 1:10:17.400
<v Speaker 6>to leave with Princess, but is again shot. He ends

1:10:17.439 --> 1:10:19.240
<v Speaker 6>up with a gaping hole in his chest, laid out

1:10:19.240 --> 1:10:22.040
<v Speaker 6>on the floor, and the screen turns red. Charlie is

1:10:22.080 --> 1:10:24.639
<v Speaker 6>immediately transported back to an earlier scene in the diner.

1:10:24.680 --> 1:10:26.839
<v Speaker 6>When Princess refuses to tell him what's in the briefcase,

1:10:27.080 --> 1:10:29.320
<v Speaker 6>we see that Charlie lost one of his three lives.

1:10:29.439 --> 1:10:31.439
<v Speaker 6>He begs the game to stop, but they remind him

1:10:31.439 --> 1:10:34.200
<v Speaker 6>he can't quit. The scene replays, and this time when

1:10:34.200 --> 1:10:36.959
<v Speaker 6>a bullet is barreling toward his head, the game pauses.

1:10:37.240 --> 1:10:40.519
<v Speaker 6>The robot voice reveals this is the last time they

1:10:40.560 --> 1:10:42.639
<v Speaker 6>will help. We're back in the.

1:10:42.600 --> 1:10:44.200
<v Speaker 3>Real Carold Yeah twice.

1:10:44.320 --> 1:10:44.559
<v Speaker 4>Man.

1:10:46.040 --> 1:10:48.360
<v Speaker 6>Charlie wakes up and instantly throws the helmet and equipment

1:10:48.439 --> 1:10:50.800
<v Speaker 6>back into its box. He's exhausted, he has no idea why,

1:10:50.840 --> 1:10:53.000
<v Speaker 6>so he decides to take a shower, but once he's

1:10:53.040 --> 1:10:55.839
<v Speaker 6>in the bathroom, he gets paranoid and shouts out, hello,

1:10:56.160 --> 1:10:59.519
<v Speaker 6>is anybody there? When there's no response, he resumes showering,

1:10:59.560 --> 1:11:02.240
<v Speaker 6>but then the waiter from the diner appears and shoots

1:11:02.280 --> 1:11:04.840
<v Speaker 6>him from point blank range, but he's gone as quickly

1:11:04.880 --> 1:11:09.120
<v Speaker 6>as he appeared. It was apparently just his imagination. Now outside,

1:11:09.560 --> 1:11:12.599
<v Speaker 6>Charlie looks around warily and walks to his car, eventually

1:11:12.640 --> 1:11:15.920
<v Speaker 6>holding up his hands and commanding keys, but he's not

1:11:16.200 --> 1:11:20.240
<v Speaker 6>in the game. He laughs to himself and then returns

1:11:20.280 --> 1:11:24.280
<v Speaker 6>to his routine. It's good at TBI Technologies again. His

1:11:24.320 --> 1:11:26.120
<v Speaker 6>supervisor Mark asks if he's high.

1:11:26.400 --> 1:11:28.040
<v Speaker 1>Here's what I was a little confused because he's never

1:11:28.040 --> 1:11:29.760
<v Speaker 1>had to ask for keys in the game either.

1:11:30.240 --> 1:11:34.760
<v Speaker 6>No, no, but he's never because he just grabs, he

1:11:34.840 --> 1:11:36.040
<v Speaker 6>beats people up for cars.

1:11:36.200 --> 1:11:38.800
<v Speaker 1>He never has to have keys, so it was a

1:11:38.840 --> 1:11:41.760
<v Speaker 1>little weird that he's suddenly asking for Right, they.

1:11:41.640 --> 1:11:44.639
<v Speaker 6>Could have put a couple instances of keys and something

1:11:44.680 --> 1:11:45.439
<v Speaker 6>into something in there.

1:11:45.600 --> 1:11:46.320
<v Speaker 4>It's still good though.

1:11:47.160 --> 1:11:49.519
<v Speaker 6>His supervisor Mark, he asks if he's hung over. Charlie

1:11:49.560 --> 1:11:51.320
<v Speaker 6>says no, then asks if he's heard of any new

1:11:51.520 --> 1:11:55.200
<v Speaker 6>virtual reality systems. Mark says Nintendo's working on goggles, but

1:11:55.240 --> 1:11:58.200
<v Speaker 6>he knows nothing about what Charlie's received. Charlie's back at

1:11:58.200 --> 1:12:00.280
<v Speaker 6>his desk testing another video game, but he keeps almost

1:12:00.280 --> 1:12:02.680
<v Speaker 6>falling asleep. Finally, his eyes shut and he hears the

1:12:02.720 --> 1:12:05.719
<v Speaker 6>monologue voice from the game. He has slipped back into

1:12:05.760 --> 1:12:08.120
<v Speaker 6>the game. He's in the diner with Princess, just as

1:12:08.120 --> 1:12:10.640
<v Speaker 6>they're about to be ambushed. The robot voice explains he

1:12:10.640 --> 1:12:13.479
<v Speaker 6>doesn't even need the headset anymore. Charlie acts fast, but

1:12:13.560 --> 1:12:15.479
<v Speaker 6>he lost all his weapons when he died, so he

1:12:15.520 --> 1:12:18.200
<v Speaker 6>secures the waiter's gun and shoots both bad guys before

1:12:18.240 --> 1:12:20.720
<v Speaker 6>they can make a first move. He grabs Princess to leave,

1:12:20.720 --> 1:12:37.280
<v Speaker 6>but he freezes and his nose starts bleeding. Back to

1:12:37.320 --> 1:12:39.639
<v Speaker 6>the real world, Charlie's asleep at work and his friend

1:12:39.640 --> 1:12:41.519
<v Speaker 6>is nudging him and to wake him up. It's time

1:12:41.520 --> 1:12:44.320
<v Speaker 6>for lunch. Charlie's not hungry. He heads for the breakroom

1:12:44.320 --> 1:12:47.240
<v Speaker 6>for coffee, but when his supervisor Mark walks up behind him,

1:12:47.439 --> 1:12:49.840
<v Speaker 6>Charlie's vision blurs and he sees him as a character

1:12:49.880 --> 1:12:52.920
<v Speaker 6>from the game. His reality and the Crime Spree game

1:12:53.040 --> 1:12:56.240
<v Speaker 6>are morphing together. Charlie drops the coffee pot and it

1:12:56.280 --> 1:12:59.680
<v Speaker 6>shatters everywhere. Mark notices that his employee is freaking out,

1:12:59.720 --> 1:13:02.320
<v Speaker 6>and he asks if he's on something. Charlie says no,

1:13:02.400 --> 1:13:04.679
<v Speaker 6>but admits it feels like he hasn't slept in weeks.

1:13:04.880 --> 1:13:06.360
<v Speaker 6>Mark tells him to go see a doctor and to

1:13:06.400 --> 1:13:09.639
<v Speaker 6>get some rest. And now we're at doctor Blake's office.

1:13:09.920 --> 1:13:13.479
<v Speaker 6>Charlie's visibly ill, sweating and rocking back and forth. The

1:13:13.560 --> 1:13:16.160
<v Speaker 6>nurse informs him there are no more appointments available today,

1:13:16.160 --> 1:13:18.680
<v Speaker 6>but he begs for help. She can only pencil him

1:13:18.680 --> 1:13:20.720
<v Speaker 6>in for next Thursday at ten am, but if he's

1:13:20.760 --> 1:13:22.519
<v Speaker 6>really as sick as he claims, he should go to

1:13:22.560 --> 1:13:26.560
<v Speaker 6>the hospital next door. Charlie starts hallucinating again, seeing the

1:13:26.640 --> 1:13:28.760
<v Speaker 6>receptionist's face as a clown, so he runs out of

1:13:28.760 --> 1:13:30.920
<v Speaker 6>the office as fast as possible, only to find a

1:13:30.960 --> 1:13:32.479
<v Speaker 6>gunman standing at the end of the hallway.

1:13:32.600 --> 1:13:35.120
<v Speaker 5>But I love how he freaks out. He's obviously having

1:13:35.120 --> 1:13:37.240
<v Speaker 5>the worst day. She looks awful, and the lady's like,

1:13:37.360 --> 1:13:38.160
<v Speaker 5>are you all right?

1:13:38.800 --> 1:13:41.160
<v Speaker 3>I know it's like you come out at doctor's office

1:13:41.320 --> 1:13:42.040
<v Speaker 3>freaking out.

1:13:43.760 --> 1:13:45.400
<v Speaker 4>I need to see the doctor.

1:13:45.680 --> 1:13:46.920
<v Speaker 3>Hey y.

1:13:49.760 --> 1:13:53.240
<v Speaker 6>He convinces himself no one is there, and voila, he's gone.

1:13:53.600 --> 1:13:55.519
<v Speaker 6>Charlie runs into the elevator and asks the game if

1:13:55.520 --> 1:13:58.559
<v Speaker 6>he's currently playing. It says no, which feels like a lie.

1:13:59.000 --> 1:14:02.000
<v Speaker 6>Then the elevator crashed and Charlie grabs the emergency phone.

1:14:02.120 --> 1:14:05.360
<v Speaker 6>A demented voice screams at him, we can't let you leave, Charlie.

1:14:05.720 --> 1:14:07.880
<v Speaker 6>Then out of nowhere, the cop sprints at him and

1:14:07.880 --> 1:14:10.599
<v Speaker 6>holds him up by the throat. He threatens you can't

1:14:10.760 --> 1:14:14.400
<v Speaker 6>escape me, and then disappears. Charlie holds onto the railing

1:14:14.479 --> 1:14:16.880
<v Speaker 6>for dear life. Just as the elevator returns to normal,

1:14:17.280 --> 1:14:19.599
<v Speaker 6>he steps out to see a man standing right outside.

1:14:19.920 --> 1:14:21.120
<v Speaker 4>Charlie jumps at the side.

1:14:20.920 --> 1:14:22.880
<v Speaker 6>Of him, but it's just a normal dude, so he

1:14:22.960 --> 1:14:26.360
<v Speaker 6>snaps out of his paranoia and walks away. Outside the

1:14:26.360 --> 1:14:29.000
<v Speaker 6>doctor's office, Charlie is limping towards his car when he

1:14:29.040 --> 1:14:31.160
<v Speaker 6>sees that a cop is giving him a ticket. He

1:14:31.240 --> 1:14:34.120
<v Speaker 6>tries to explain, but when the cop turns around, we

1:14:34.240 --> 1:14:38.240
<v Speaker 6>see it's Kate's killer. The cop asks what his problem is,

1:14:38.280 --> 1:14:41.040
<v Speaker 6>and Charlie laughs. He thinks the game is messing with him.

1:14:41.240 --> 1:14:42.960
<v Speaker 6>He sounds like he's losing his mind, but the cop

1:14:43.000 --> 1:14:45.799
<v Speaker 6>finds it amusing. He stuffs the ticket in Charlie's pocket

1:14:45.800 --> 1:14:49.559
<v Speaker 6>and tells him he knows exactly what Charlie needs. He

1:14:49.640 --> 1:14:53.160
<v Speaker 6>pushes Charlie into an alley and grabs a bag of

1:14:53.280 --> 1:14:55.840
<v Speaker 6>drugs hidden underneath a staircase.

1:14:56.040 --> 1:14:59.679
<v Speaker 1>All right, so he's a crooked cop selling drugs, yep.

1:15:00.080 --> 1:15:02.920
<v Speaker 1>But he decides that Charlie is going to buy drugs

1:15:02.920 --> 1:15:04.639
<v Speaker 1>for him just based on his behavior.

1:15:04.960 --> 1:15:06.920
<v Speaker 4>He thinks he's tripping, he thinks he's.

1:15:06.760 --> 1:15:11.920
<v Speaker 1>On drugs, and therefore he needs more more. Yeah, yeah, Wow,

1:15:12.600 --> 1:15:14.920
<v Speaker 1>that's an aggressive crooked cop.

1:15:15.600 --> 1:15:21.280
<v Speaker 6>Yeah awesome, he offers Charlie uppers, downers, laughers, screamers, or ticklers.

1:15:21.360 --> 1:15:24.160
<v Speaker 4>It's good. Charlie finally realized.

1:15:25.600 --> 1:15:28.120
<v Speaker 1>To ask, I want to know what tickler is.

1:15:28.240 --> 1:15:29.560
<v Speaker 10>I can get you.

1:15:30.240 --> 1:15:33.760
<v Speaker 8>I got a tickler guy.

1:15:34.040 --> 1:15:37.479
<v Speaker 6>Charlie finally realizes the cop is real. With this new revelation,

1:15:37.640 --> 1:15:40.519
<v Speaker 6>Charlie yells, you killed my girlfriend. How could you think

1:15:40.520 --> 1:15:43.280
<v Speaker 6>a seventeen year old like Kate had a gun? The

1:15:43.320 --> 1:15:45.479
<v Speaker 6>cop responds by pushing him against a wall. He says

1:15:45.560 --> 1:15:48.120
<v Speaker 6>Kate's death was an accident, but considering the cop just

1:15:48.120 --> 1:15:50.599
<v Speaker 6>tried to sell him drugs, Charlie assumes he was high

1:15:50.600 --> 1:15:52.960
<v Speaker 6>when it happened. The cop punges him in the stomach,

1:15:53.000 --> 1:15:56.000
<v Speaker 6>and Charlie collapses to the floor, gasping for air. Charlie

1:15:56.000 --> 1:15:59.080
<v Speaker 6>starts to hallucinate again, and the screen goes black. Now

1:15:59.080 --> 1:16:01.640
<v Speaker 6>we're at the hospital, Charlie hooked up to machines, with

1:16:01.680 --> 1:16:03.519
<v Speaker 6>a doctor and a nurse trying to wake him. The

1:16:03.560 --> 1:16:06.000
<v Speaker 6>hallucinations start again, and Charlie is back in the game,

1:16:06.000 --> 1:16:08.679
<v Speaker 6>looking at his hospital bed as an observer. He hears

1:16:08.720 --> 1:16:11.160
<v Speaker 6>Princess's voice and is thrown back into the cafe where

1:16:11.160 --> 1:16:13.400
<v Speaker 6>he killed those two men. He spots Aushan at the

1:16:13.439 --> 1:16:16.240
<v Speaker 6>front door, so he grabs Princess and runs downstairs. They

1:16:16.240 --> 1:16:18.200
<v Speaker 6>get to a tunnel that looks like and sounds like

1:16:18.600 --> 1:16:22.439
<v Speaker 6>the inside of an intestine. Aushan and his sword are

1:16:22.520 --> 1:16:25.800
<v Speaker 6>right on their tail. Charlie directs Princess through a floating window,

1:16:25.840 --> 1:16:27.680
<v Speaker 6>and while he shoots at the bad guy over and

1:16:27.720 --> 1:16:30.720
<v Speaker 6>over and over again without even one successful hit, they

1:16:30.840 --> 1:16:34.200
<v Speaker 6>escape through first a cloud like portal, then into a

1:16:34.240 --> 1:16:38.000
<v Speaker 6>tornado looking portal, and then finally they land in a

1:16:38.000 --> 1:16:40.599
<v Speaker 6>desert landscape, her on top.

1:16:40.439 --> 1:16:43.200
<v Speaker 5>Of him on the annoying I am blocking the bullets

1:16:43.200 --> 1:16:45.400
<v Speaker 5>with the sword raw.

1:16:45.560 --> 1:16:47.040
<v Speaker 4>Chef's kiss, Yeah so good.

1:16:49.760 --> 1:16:52.280
<v Speaker 6>Princess is straddling Charlie and half heartedly thanks him for

1:16:52.360 --> 1:16:55.639
<v Speaker 6>saving their lives. Confused about their new surroundings. Charlie confirms

1:16:55.640 --> 1:16:57.760
<v Speaker 6>with the game that he only has four bullets left.

1:16:58.160 --> 1:17:00.719
<v Speaker 6>Charlie calls this is the worst game he ever played,

1:17:01.080 --> 1:17:03.200
<v Speaker 6>but Princess has no clue why he thinks this is

1:17:03.240 --> 1:17:05.840
<v Speaker 6>a game. She reminds him how important the briefcase is,

1:17:05.880 --> 1:17:07.920
<v Speaker 6>but she still won't tell Charlie what's in it. They

1:17:07.920 --> 1:17:10.040
<v Speaker 6>here growling in the distance. Just as they wonder what

1:17:10.040 --> 1:17:13.280
<v Speaker 6>it is, they are attacked by a shadowy human figure

1:17:13.320 --> 1:17:14.960
<v Speaker 6>that has holes for eyes.

1:17:15.600 --> 1:17:19.639
<v Speaker 5>Yes, this is when they really the graphics really started

1:17:19.640 --> 1:17:21.720
<v Speaker 5>to kill. Yeah, I mean when I was like, now

1:17:21.960 --> 1:17:25.880
<v Speaker 5>now they've gone once, you've gotten a zombie land. I'm like, okay,

1:17:26.280 --> 1:17:28.360
<v Speaker 5>I mean my gosh.

1:17:28.400 --> 1:17:31.439
<v Speaker 1>So on set, were you seeing anything about like.

1:17:31.760 --> 1:17:37.160
<v Speaker 6>I'm pretty sure these were just people in blue suits suits? Yeah,

1:17:38.160 --> 1:17:38.759
<v Speaker 6>was to capture.

1:17:39.720 --> 1:17:42.120
<v Speaker 1>No, this wasn't her at the time, right, Yeah, so

1:17:42.160 --> 1:17:47.639
<v Speaker 1>they were just jumping around you guys. Yeah, wow, that's

1:17:47.680 --> 1:17:51.719
<v Speaker 1>hard to but I guess I meant were you seeing

1:17:51.840 --> 1:17:55.640
<v Speaker 1>like visuals of what those like the world was looking like.

1:17:56.200 --> 1:17:58.240
<v Speaker 1>So you just were told like this is a door

1:17:58.400 --> 1:17:59.920
<v Speaker 1>and there's a jump all around you in the.

1:18:00.240 --> 1:18:02.040
<v Speaker 4>Oh No, we weren't even told that. It's just like

1:18:02.680 --> 1:18:04.799
<v Speaker 4>and now you've fallen and you're in another world.

1:18:05.400 --> 1:18:09.960
<v Speaker 1>And yeah, were you, like, what was the vibe on set?

1:18:10.960 --> 1:18:13.519
<v Speaker 1>Were you and taking it seriously and like committed to it,

1:18:13.600 --> 1:18:15.160
<v Speaker 1>or were you guys like just kind of goofing off

1:18:15.160 --> 1:18:17.240
<v Speaker 1>and then being like, oh, we're rolling. I guess we

1:18:17.320 --> 1:18:19.680
<v Speaker 1>got to do this silly scene because he's you know,

1:18:19.720 --> 1:18:22.679
<v Speaker 1>I feel like he's taking it pretty seriously. Yes, we were.

1:18:22.720 --> 1:18:24.280
<v Speaker 4>We were taking it pretty seriously.

1:18:25.360 --> 1:18:30.800
<v Speaker 6>There were, of course, moments where we were either frustrated

1:18:31.120 --> 1:18:37.320
<v Speaker 6>or very tired or at Ma's capacity for being able,

1:18:37.520 --> 1:18:41.080
<v Speaker 6>and we would then privately be like, oh my god,

1:18:41.080 --> 1:18:43.479
<v Speaker 6>I can't believe we're doing this, Like I have to

1:18:43.479 --> 1:18:46.840
<v Speaker 6>go run around. By the way, all the running we're

1:18:46.840 --> 1:18:48.800
<v Speaker 6>in not that big of a space. We were running

1:18:48.800 --> 1:18:52.599
<v Speaker 6>in circles, just running in circles in different different directions,

1:18:52.680 --> 1:18:56.639
<v Speaker 6>running in circles, and I have a handcuff on carrying

1:18:56.640 --> 1:19:00.640
<v Speaker 6>a briefcase and just you know, and then bullets and

1:19:00.720 --> 1:19:04.760
<v Speaker 6>this alien guy and and being told the graphics, the

1:19:04.760 --> 1:19:05.400
<v Speaker 6>graphics are great.

1:19:05.760 --> 1:19:10.040
<v Speaker 3>It looks it's gonna look where it's going to look good.

1:19:11.960 --> 1:19:14.360
<v Speaker 3>So you have to commit, you have to believe in

1:19:14.479 --> 1:19:15.080
<v Speaker 3>the fantasy.

1:19:15.479 --> 1:19:21.519
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, yeah, I will say Nate and I became.

1:19:21.600 --> 1:19:22.599
<v Speaker 4>We were very bonded.

1:19:22.760 --> 1:19:24.560
<v Speaker 6>We were very bond We were it was just the

1:19:24.600 --> 1:19:28.120
<v Speaker 6>two of us for days on end right, and I

1:19:28.200 --> 1:19:35.000
<v Speaker 6>mean eighteen hour days, oh wow, full, long, long days.

1:19:37.439 --> 1:19:37.960
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it was.

1:19:38.360 --> 1:19:39.040
<v Speaker 6>It was not.

1:19:39.360 --> 1:19:41.880
<v Speaker 4>It was not an easy process, but it didn't go

1:19:42.160 --> 1:19:45.200
<v Speaker 4>on for very long. Thankfully. It is good though.

1:19:47.040 --> 1:19:49.479
<v Speaker 6>Princess kills it just before it can devour Charlie and

1:19:49.520 --> 1:19:51.639
<v Speaker 6>they realize these are zombies.

1:19:51.880 --> 1:19:54.240
<v Speaker 1>Well, I have a couple more questions about with h Okay,

1:19:54.439 --> 1:19:57.120
<v Speaker 1>are there dressing rooms? What's going to do?

1:19:57.240 --> 1:20:00.120
<v Speaker 4>We had trailers? We had we did had we at

1:20:00.120 --> 1:20:00.719
<v Speaker 4>honey wagons.

1:20:00.800 --> 1:20:03.360
<v Speaker 1>Okay, okay, because I mean I've definitely been on films

1:20:03.400 --> 1:20:07.000
<v Speaker 1>where there's literally no dressing rooms. There's dressed there, there

1:20:07.240 --> 1:20:09.919
<v Speaker 1>was sitting on set. Okay, so you had trailers.

1:20:10.160 --> 1:20:12.559
<v Speaker 3>Was this film? Was it thirty five millimeter film?

1:20:13.120 --> 1:20:13.160
<v Speaker 5>No?

1:20:14.200 --> 1:20:17.280
<v Speaker 3>No, I don't it was early digital? Right?

1:20:17.640 --> 1:20:22.400
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, okay, sure, I don't like films.

1:20:23.800 --> 1:20:24.960
<v Speaker 3>Or TV or video game?

1:20:25.280 --> 1:20:29.559
<v Speaker 1>Are there eighties a script supervisor? Like? Is there a crew?

1:20:29.920 --> 1:20:30.479
<v Speaker 1>A full crew?

1:20:30.760 --> 1:20:30.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

1:20:31.120 --> 1:20:33.800
<v Speaker 4>There is a very small crew.

1:20:34.240 --> 1:20:34.519
<v Speaker 3>Okay.

1:20:35.760 --> 1:20:40.880
<v Speaker 6>There was you know, hair and makeup, Okay, Uh, there

1:20:41.160 --> 1:20:48.000
<v Speaker 6>was a wardrobe person. There was a script supervisor. There

1:20:48.080 --> 1:20:49.200
<v Speaker 6>was a script supervisor.

1:20:50.400 --> 1:20:52.600
<v Speaker 1>But the lighting is just sort of basic, like they

1:20:52.680 --> 1:20:55.000
<v Speaker 1>set up they just light you guys in the room,

1:20:55.320 --> 1:20:57.840
<v Speaker 1>and then you're just in an empty room running around.

1:20:58.040 --> 1:21:03.880
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yes, yes, I'm the lighting. I am lit. Like

1:21:04.040 --> 1:21:10.479
<v Speaker 4>the lighting. Okay, a ring light, throw some light on there,

1:21:10.560 --> 1:21:11.000
<v Speaker 4>they're lit.

1:21:11.520 --> 1:21:14.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but all practical props. You're holding guns, you're doing that.

1:21:14.840 --> 1:21:18.080
<v Speaker 4>It's like we're holding fake guns. My briefcase was real.

1:21:19.040 --> 1:21:26.040
<v Speaker 6>My briefcase was real, real handcuffs, yeah, okay, any other

1:21:26.120 --> 1:21:26.879
<v Speaker 6>questions writer.

1:21:26.800 --> 1:21:27.840
<v Speaker 4>No, cool, not yet.

1:21:28.520 --> 1:21:30.040
<v Speaker 1>That gave me a good image of like, you know

1:21:30.280 --> 1:21:30.800
<v Speaker 1>what we're doing.

1:21:31.040 --> 1:21:31.240
<v Speaker 5>I do.

1:21:31.479 --> 1:21:34.360
<v Speaker 6>One of the other things I remember is the the

1:21:34.479 --> 1:21:38.400
<v Speaker 6>window that we crawl through and stuff was a uh,

1:21:39.160 --> 1:21:44.000
<v Speaker 6>just just a window all by itself, so in the middle,

1:21:44.160 --> 1:21:47.960
<v Speaker 6>just picture in the empty room, like a staircase, a ladder,

1:21:48.720 --> 1:21:55.559
<v Speaker 6>a wood ladder, and then a window, a wood would

1:21:56.000 --> 1:21:58.280
<v Speaker 6>very basic window, like, oh we need a window. Let me,

1:21:58.439 --> 1:22:00.479
<v Speaker 6>do you have four pieces of wood? Let me, I'll

1:22:00.520 --> 1:22:03.599
<v Speaker 6>build a window and then us diving through it. Which

1:22:03.680 --> 1:22:08.599
<v Speaker 6>another thing is that you know practically also is kind

1:22:08.680 --> 1:22:09.200
<v Speaker 6>of painful.

1:22:09.400 --> 1:22:13.080
<v Speaker 4>No stunt people, No, you have a whole stunt crew

1:22:13.120 --> 1:22:18.760
<v Speaker 4>on this. No stunt crew did all our own stunts. Yeah,

1:22:19.640 --> 1:22:20.080
<v Speaker 4>that's good.

1:22:21.920 --> 1:22:23.960
<v Speaker 6>He asks why they're in zombie Land when he shows

1:22:24.040 --> 1:22:26.800
<v Speaker 6>crime Spree, and the robot voice reveals they'll end up

1:22:26.920 --> 1:22:29.799
<v Speaker 6>in every game if they play long enough. Charlie manages

1:22:29.840 --> 1:22:33.000
<v Speaker 6>to kill all five zombies with just four bullets remaining,

1:22:33.520 --> 1:22:36.320
<v Speaker 6>but then more zombies appear in the distance, so they

1:22:36.400 --> 1:22:38.519
<v Speaker 6>make a run for it. Soon after they leave, Aushon

1:22:38.600 --> 1:22:41.200
<v Speaker 6>gracefully floats down from the sky and kills all the

1:22:41.320 --> 1:22:44.280
<v Speaker 6>zombies with his sword and a smile. Meanwhile, Charlie and

1:22:44.320 --> 1:22:45.960
<v Speaker 6>Princess are grasping for why.

1:22:46.080 --> 1:22:50.800
<v Speaker 3>Well, I'm sorry, why is he? Isn't he the bad guy?

1:22:51.000 --> 1:22:51.040
<v Speaker 1>So?

1:22:51.439 --> 1:22:54.519
<v Speaker 5>Why is he killing all the zombies? Isn't he supposed

1:22:54.520 --> 1:22:57.000
<v Speaker 5>to be like the main bad guy? So shouldn't all

1:22:57.040 --> 1:23:00.000
<v Speaker 5>the other bad things in the world be working with him?

1:23:00.040 --> 1:23:00.800
<v Speaker 3>Him more for him?

1:23:00.880 --> 1:23:04.200
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, but I guess because it's a different world, they aren't.

1:23:04.479 --> 1:23:07.880
<v Speaker 1>He's trust first, right by killing him?

1:23:07.920 --> 1:23:08.080
<v Speaker 5>All?

1:23:09.280 --> 1:23:15.800
<v Speaker 1>Oh right, it's just so good, it's yeah, I mean,

1:23:16.000 --> 1:23:19.320
<v Speaker 1>that's the problem. All logic goes out of the window.

1:23:19.400 --> 1:23:21.680
<v Speaker 1>Once the video games in charge of everything and in

1:23:21.800 --> 1:23:24.200
<v Speaker 1>charge of all the characters within its own context, and.

1:23:24.240 --> 1:23:26.400
<v Speaker 5>Why wouldn't he be the head of the zombies the

1:23:26.479 --> 1:23:28.680
<v Speaker 5>same way he's the head of all the guys in

1:23:28.800 --> 1:23:31.160
<v Speaker 5>crime Spree and then the head of the alien because

1:23:31.200 --> 1:23:32.200
<v Speaker 5>he's the mad bad guy.

1:23:33.200 --> 1:23:40.040
<v Speaker 6>Isn't it though, that in every world they want the briefcase, right,

1:23:40.600 --> 1:23:47.639
<v Speaker 6>they're only working for Aushan in crime Spree. Crime Spree

1:23:47.920 --> 1:23:50.360
<v Speaker 6>is the bad guy for I mean, Aushan is the

1:23:50.400 --> 1:23:54.600
<v Speaker 6>bad guy from Crime Spree. He beats Crime Spree and

1:23:54.760 --> 1:24:00.320
<v Speaker 6>Aushan somehow manages to follow them into this world where

1:24:00.479 --> 1:24:04.200
<v Speaker 6>the zombies there's a new bad guy now not Blue

1:24:04.240 --> 1:24:09.640
<v Speaker 6>Mountain Observatory, but Blue Mountain Industries. Someone else wants the briefcase,

1:24:09.680 --> 1:24:12.120
<v Speaker 6>but Aushan is like, no, it's mine, and he follows

1:24:12.160 --> 1:24:15.679
<v Speaker 6>them into this world. So those zombies actually aren't going

1:24:15.840 --> 1:24:18.280
<v Speaker 6>to listen to Aushan. They're going to listen to whoever

1:24:18.479 --> 1:24:19.439
<v Speaker 6>they're bad guy.

1:24:19.760 --> 1:24:22.040
<v Speaker 5>What if he picked because they tell him at the beginning,

1:24:22.200 --> 1:24:24.519
<v Speaker 5>pick your main bad guy, So what if he didn't

1:24:24.560 --> 1:24:26.679
<v Speaker 5>pick crimes for you? What if he started with zombie

1:24:26.720 --> 1:24:29.840
<v Speaker 5>and he still picked the cop, then I don't know.

1:24:30.560 --> 1:24:35.719
<v Speaker 1>We should meet that guy. So basically every game should

1:24:35.720 --> 1:24:39.120
<v Speaker 1>have a bad guy that's the cop of the cops,

1:24:39.280 --> 1:24:42.080
<v Speaker 1>and they could be partnering up from game to the.

1:24:42.520 --> 1:24:43.639
<v Speaker 3>Zomb That's a great rewrite.

1:24:44.080 --> 1:24:46.719
<v Speaker 1>That's a great right. Let's go back and punch punch

1:24:46.800 --> 1:24:47.160
<v Speaker 1>the script.

1:24:49.200 --> 1:24:51.800
<v Speaker 4>Too bad. I wasn't talking to you guys during this time.

1:24:51.880 --> 1:24:53.800
<v Speaker 4>We could have really could have made this better.

1:24:54.960 --> 1:24:57.120
<v Speaker 6>Meanwhile, Charlie and Princess are gasping for air as they

1:24:57.120 --> 1:24:59.880
<v Speaker 6>continue to walk through a never ending jungle. The lands

1:25:00.160 --> 1:25:02.679
<v Speaker 6>then turns into a digital grid, then into green trees

1:25:02.760 --> 1:25:05.799
<v Speaker 6>and an old, spooky house. Charlie suggests they stop inside

1:25:05.800 --> 1:25:07.840
<v Speaker 6>for a moment. Once through the front door, they spot

1:25:07.880 --> 1:25:10.320
<v Speaker 6>a single axe lying on a table, and Charlie decides

1:25:10.320 --> 1:25:12.560
<v Speaker 6>he can use it to break Princess free from the briefcase,

1:25:12.600 --> 1:25:15.200
<v Speaker 6>but she won't let him. Charlie points out all the

1:25:15.280 --> 1:25:18.360
<v Speaker 6>reasons this is obviously not real life. He downplays her

1:25:18.360 --> 1:25:20.599
<v Speaker 6>as just a character who resembles someone that was very

1:25:20.640 --> 1:25:23.120
<v Speaker 6>important to him, and then, as she insists she's not

1:25:23.280 --> 1:25:25.720
<v Speaker 6>a character, someone runs into the house. It's not a

1:25:25.840 --> 1:25:29.679
<v Speaker 6>zombie or au Shuan, it's Charlie's friend, Peter. Peter appears

1:25:29.800 --> 1:25:33.360
<v Speaker 6>real and he knows Charlie and Kate. When Charlie was

1:25:33.360 --> 1:25:35.760
<v Speaker 6>found by cops unconscious in an alley. Peter ran to

1:25:35.840 --> 1:25:38.000
<v Speaker 6>his apartment, saw the headset and put it on. The

1:25:38.080 --> 1:25:40.519
<v Speaker 6>game led Peter to the scary house, but Charlie's still

1:25:40.560 --> 1:25:43.240
<v Speaker 6>having a hard time believing this story. He gets confirmation

1:25:43.360 --> 1:25:45.800
<v Speaker 6>from the robot voice that he is telling the truth. Then,

1:25:46.120 --> 1:25:48.320
<v Speaker 6>with the zombie shrieks getting closer, they decide to make

1:25:48.320 --> 1:25:50.400
<v Speaker 6>a run for it. Carefully sneaking out of the house,

1:25:50.840 --> 1:25:53.719
<v Speaker 6>we get an insane chase scene with the kids running

1:25:53.800 --> 1:25:56.800
<v Speaker 6>through a foggy jungle at warp speed. Yes, will I

1:25:56.880 --> 1:25:57.360
<v Speaker 6>have a question?

1:25:58.520 --> 1:26:02.000
<v Speaker 3>Why give him two sets of friends? Why do you

1:26:02.080 --> 1:26:02.840
<v Speaker 3>need friends? At work?

1:26:03.160 --> 1:26:05.639
<v Speaker 5>And then the whole other barbecue friends? Like why isn't

1:26:05.680 --> 1:26:07.720
<v Speaker 5>Patrick Renna and all the video game guys?

1:26:07.760 --> 1:26:08.439
<v Speaker 3>Why aren't they.

1:26:08.560 --> 1:26:12.080
<v Speaker 4>Because the budget was so big, That's what I'm saying.

1:26:12.120 --> 1:26:13.640
<v Speaker 3>And why do you need two sets of friends? What

1:26:13.760 --> 1:26:15.080
<v Speaker 3>was the point of the two sets of friends?

1:26:15.120 --> 1:26:15.240
<v Speaker 1>Right?

1:26:15.920 --> 1:26:18.160
<v Speaker 5>Because Patrick Rerenna never gets into video the video game

1:26:18.200 --> 1:26:20.200
<v Speaker 5>land You've got Patrick rennaw, why would you not.

1:26:20.240 --> 1:26:21.680
<v Speaker 3>Use him in the video game? I think you were right.

1:26:21.800 --> 1:26:23.640
<v Speaker 3>They only had Patrick for like I think had him

1:26:23.640 --> 1:26:24.720
<v Speaker 3>for three hours or whatever.

1:26:25.000 --> 1:26:26.599
<v Speaker 5>We can shoot out this because it doesn't make any

1:26:26.640 --> 1:26:27.960
<v Speaker 5>sense to give him two sets of like, why give

1:26:28.000 --> 1:26:28.360
<v Speaker 5>him two.

1:26:28.240 --> 1:26:28.679
<v Speaker 3>Sets of friend?

1:26:28.720 --> 1:26:28.840
<v Speaker 5>Right?

1:26:29.720 --> 1:26:30.639
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, you're right.

1:26:42.920 --> 1:26:46.400
<v Speaker 6>Now walking Princess's feet hurt, but Charlie knows they must

1:26:46.439 --> 1:26:48.880
<v Speaker 6>find this observatory to end the game. We also see

1:26:48.920 --> 1:26:51.080
<v Speaker 6>that au Shun has perched atop the old Scary house,

1:26:51.120 --> 1:26:54.880
<v Speaker 6>sniffing the air to find the kids, and it is

1:26:55.240 --> 1:27:00.240
<v Speaker 6>maybe the worst special effect in the whole movie. In

1:27:00.280 --> 1:27:02.439
<v Speaker 6>the fog, Charlie notices a tombstone on the floor. It

1:27:02.479 --> 1:27:04.840
<v Speaker 6>says Blue Mountain Enterprises, which is where they need to

1:27:04.880 --> 1:27:08.160
<v Speaker 6>take the briefcase. But Princess reminds him they need the observatory,

1:27:08.320 --> 1:27:11.439
<v Speaker 6>not the enterprises. This might just be a coincidence. Charlie

1:27:11.479 --> 1:27:14.120
<v Speaker 6>reminds her it's just a game. The names change in

1:27:14.160 --> 1:27:17.280
<v Speaker 6>between the levels. Who cares, But then another person appears.

1:27:17.400 --> 1:27:19.120
<v Speaker 6>It's a character that has the face of Charlie and

1:27:19.200 --> 1:27:22.360
<v Speaker 6>Peter's friend Sherman. Sherman tells them that their experiment has

1:27:22.400 --> 1:27:24.960
<v Speaker 6>went totally wrong. Apparently the whole place is flooded with

1:27:25.040 --> 1:27:28.280
<v Speaker 6>zombies and it's a massacre down there. Charlie asks what

1:27:28.360 --> 1:27:30.679
<v Speaker 6>Blue Mountain is, and Sherman says it's a military research

1:27:30.760 --> 1:27:34.200
<v Speaker 6>facility built underground. Sherman found an escape tunnel to enter.

1:27:34.520 --> 1:27:36.599
<v Speaker 6>The three of them leave Sherman behind for the tunnel,

1:27:36.640 --> 1:27:38.559
<v Speaker 6>and now Shun is still right behind them.

1:27:38.720 --> 1:27:40.960
<v Speaker 5>So it's supposed to be the what's the big famous

1:27:40.960 --> 1:27:42.800
<v Speaker 5>one where they've made tons of movies on it with

1:27:43.120 --> 1:27:47.600
<v Speaker 5>nili Jovich. Underground Resident Evil. That's what it's supposed to

1:27:47.640 --> 1:27:50.639
<v Speaker 5>go from from GTA to Resident Evil.

1:27:51.960 --> 1:27:54.400
<v Speaker 6>Then we're in the underground tunnels. Charlie, Princess and Peter

1:27:54.479 --> 1:27:56.479
<v Speaker 6>here growling in the distance and decide to turn around.

1:27:56.560 --> 1:27:58.639
<v Speaker 6>But once they start running, a pack of zombies try

1:27:58.680 --> 1:28:00.880
<v Speaker 6>to keep pace. The kids fight and a ladder to climb,

1:28:00.920 --> 1:28:02.960
<v Speaker 6>and Peter just manages to escape.

1:28:03.520 --> 1:28:04.240
<v Speaker 4>They get a shoe.

1:28:04.680 --> 1:28:07.240
<v Speaker 6>Now the three of them have emerged on alien planet,

1:28:07.520 --> 1:28:10.840
<v Speaker 6>a Sepia toned wasteland. A heart arrives and Peter takes

1:28:10.880 --> 1:28:13.360
<v Speaker 6>it all for himself, prompting an argument between the boys.

1:28:13.720 --> 1:28:16.160
<v Speaker 6>It's calmed when a bracelet appears and Charlie knows he

1:28:16.280 --> 1:28:19.719
<v Speaker 6>deserves it. Two armed soldiers arrive and see Charlie's bracelet.

1:28:19.960 --> 1:28:23.000
<v Speaker 6>It's an alien shield band. They assume he's an alien,

1:28:23.040 --> 1:28:25.320
<v Speaker 6>but then they take one look at Princess and stand down.

1:28:25.920 --> 1:28:29.120
<v Speaker 6>The stories they've heard about her were true. The soldiers

1:28:29.120 --> 1:28:31.240
<v Speaker 6>are ready to retrieve the briefcase, but Charlie gets in

1:28:31.280 --> 1:28:32.720
<v Speaker 6>the way, insisting she's with him.

1:28:33.040 --> 1:28:35.439
<v Speaker 4>Princess argues that she is, in fact not with him,

1:28:35.880 --> 1:28:37.680
<v Speaker 4>and then an explosion.

1:28:38.160 --> 1:28:40.600
<v Speaker 6>It's a UFO flying overhead and it kills one of

1:28:40.640 --> 1:28:43.920
<v Speaker 6>the guards, so Charlie picks up his blaster. Charlie's bracelet

1:28:43.960 --> 1:28:46.559
<v Speaker 6>creates a force field protecting them from the et gunfire.

1:28:47.000 --> 1:28:49.320
<v Speaker 6>Then a fleet of UFOs head directly toward them. They

1:28:49.320 --> 1:28:51.960
<v Speaker 6>all duck behind a rock and it becomes a real

1:28:52.200 --> 1:28:55.719
<v Speaker 6>standoff of gunfire. They learn the briefcase holds a weapon

1:28:55.800 --> 1:28:57.960
<v Speaker 6>and Blue Mountain is where the Temple of Alena is.

1:28:58.479 --> 1:29:01.240
<v Speaker 6>Peter begs Charlie for his act for protection, and Charlie

1:29:01.280 --> 1:29:05.360
<v Speaker 6>reluctantly hands it over, and to everyone's shock, Peter immediately

1:29:05.680 --> 1:29:10.759
<v Speaker 6>swings the axe at Princess's wrist, taking off her hand

1:29:10.960 --> 1:29:13.280
<v Speaker 6>with absolutely no blood.

1:29:14.000 --> 1:29:19.160
<v Speaker 3>And your cry out was magical, just magical, was great.

1:29:19.920 --> 1:29:23.720
<v Speaker 6>He grabs the briefcase and flees, why did he have

1:29:23.760 --> 1:29:24.760
<v Speaker 6>to chop my hand off?

1:29:24.800 --> 1:29:25.439
<v Speaker 4>Why didn't you just.

1:29:25.720 --> 1:29:27.360
<v Speaker 3>He's always easier to go through the wrist than it

1:29:27.439 --> 1:29:28.639
<v Speaker 3>is to actually go through the chain.

1:29:29.080 --> 1:29:36.519
<v Speaker 1>Oh really, you're not real, so it doesn't matter. It's

1:29:36.560 --> 1:29:37.160
<v Speaker 1>all the game.

1:29:38.040 --> 1:29:41.760
<v Speaker 5>Its real to Charlie, and why the game get to

1:29:41.920 --> 1:29:45.439
<v Speaker 5>steal his health pack, Like the game can give him

1:29:45.439 --> 1:29:47.840
<v Speaker 5>a health pack but then have a fiction another character.

1:29:49.720 --> 1:29:49.920
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

1:29:50.400 --> 1:29:52.600
<v Speaker 5>Also, I figured he was the actual real guy and

1:29:52.640 --> 1:29:55.000
<v Speaker 5>he kept saying, God, my wrist is getting worse, that

1:29:55.120 --> 1:29:56.720
<v Speaker 5>he was bitten by a zombie, was going to turn

1:29:56.720 --> 1:29:57.439
<v Speaker 5>into one and attack.

1:29:57.520 --> 1:29:59.400
<v Speaker 4>I know, I thought so too. He's like, how it

1:29:59.479 --> 1:30:01.160
<v Speaker 4>really hurt? So that's where I thought this was going.

1:30:01.240 --> 1:30:04.800
<v Speaker 6>Which, by the way, so they subverted one of the

1:30:04.840 --> 1:30:05.800
<v Speaker 6>tropes that you didn't like.

1:30:05.880 --> 1:30:08.519
<v Speaker 4>You know, something you see all the time? Got it?

1:30:09.520 --> 1:30:09.840
<v Speaker 3>Cutting it?

1:30:10.960 --> 1:30:13.040
<v Speaker 4>It's good. He grabs the briefcase and fleas.

1:30:13.160 --> 1:30:15.439
<v Speaker 6>Charlie carries Princess away to a nearby cave as fighter

1:30:15.560 --> 1:30:17.840
<v Speaker 6>jets destroy all the aliens. Charlie wants to get her

1:30:17.920 --> 1:30:20.160
<v Speaker 6>some health, but she begs him to find the briefcase instead.

1:30:20.439 --> 1:30:22.200
<v Speaker 6>He instructs her to stay awake and runs out of

1:30:22.240 --> 1:30:24.320
<v Speaker 6>the cave. He's furious at the robot voice for lying

1:30:24.320 --> 1:30:26.960
<v Speaker 6>about Peter. That wasn't fair. The game reminds him that

1:30:27.040 --> 1:30:30.120
<v Speaker 6>life isn't fair. In response, Charlie sits on the floor,

1:30:30.280 --> 1:30:32.559
<v Speaker 6>rocking back and forth like a child having a tantrum.

1:30:32.760 --> 1:30:34.040
<v Speaker 3>Yes, literally, I know.

1:30:34.520 --> 1:30:35.600
<v Speaker 4>Not gonna do it, not doing it.

1:30:35.640 --> 1:30:40.920
<v Speaker 3>I'm not playing ring, I'm not playing you get me.

1:30:41.000 --> 1:30:43.519
<v Speaker 6>If the game won't play fair, then he won't play

1:30:43.560 --> 1:30:46.160
<v Speaker 6>at all. He's just gonna wait to be killed. And

1:30:46.280 --> 1:30:48.040
<v Speaker 6>then when an alien sneaks up with a gun and

1:30:48.120 --> 1:30:50.200
<v Speaker 6>is about to shoot Charlie, he uses the bracelet to

1:30:50.240 --> 1:30:52.360
<v Speaker 6>create a force field, and as a result, he kills

1:30:52.400 --> 1:30:52.920
<v Speaker 6>the alien.

1:30:53.000 --> 1:30:56.800
<v Speaker 4>Make up your mind, Bud. Charlie sees some health atop.

1:30:56.560 --> 1:30:58.960
<v Speaker 6>A mountain, so he climbs it free solo style and

1:30:59.080 --> 1:31:03.400
<v Speaker 6>finds the other soldier already up there dead. Peter killed him,

1:31:03.880 --> 1:31:05.519
<v Speaker 6>and then someone shoots at him.

1:31:05.520 --> 1:31:10.240
<v Speaker 4>It's Peter. The two exchange gunfire way too close of range, four.

1:31:10.080 --> 1:31:11.880
<v Speaker 3>Feet from each other, just shooting at each other. It's

1:31:11.920 --> 1:31:14.040
<v Speaker 3>the best why.

1:31:15.120 --> 1:31:18.280
<v Speaker 6>Charlie asks Peter why he wants this briefcase. Peter reminds

1:31:18.360 --> 1:31:20.160
<v Speaker 6>him that he only exists in this game, so he

1:31:20.200 --> 1:31:22.840
<v Speaker 6>can't let anyone ever open it. They both start climbing

1:31:22.880 --> 1:31:24.840
<v Speaker 6>to get that health icon, but Peter gets there first.

1:31:25.160 --> 1:31:27.920
<v Speaker 6>In a last ditch effort to save Princess, Charlie shoots

1:31:28.000 --> 1:31:31.800
<v Speaker 6>him in the head, completely dissolving everything above his neck. Unfortunately,

1:31:31.960 --> 1:31:35.320
<v Speaker 6>the health heart vanishes. Defeated, Charlie ditches his gun and

1:31:35.400 --> 1:31:38.320
<v Speaker 6>jumps off the cliff into free fall, killing himself on purpose.

1:31:39.040 --> 1:31:40.200
<v Speaker 4>We cut back to the hospital.

1:31:40.520 --> 1:31:43.280
<v Speaker 6>Charlie is flatlining in real life, but when he reappears

1:31:43.320 --> 1:31:46.760
<v Speaker 6>in the video game, his health is restored, so now

1:31:46.800 --> 1:31:50.160
<v Speaker 6>we're back on alien planet. Charlie is racing back up

1:31:50.200 --> 1:31:52.120
<v Speaker 6>the mountain to get the health before Peter. This time

1:31:52.160 --> 1:31:54.240
<v Speaker 6>he manages to blow off Peter's head before he flees

1:31:54.280 --> 1:31:56.760
<v Speaker 6>with the goods, but when Peter dies, the briefcase is

1:31:56.840 --> 1:31:59.639
<v Speaker 6>flung from his grasp and projected off the cliff, right.

1:31:59.600 --> 1:32:00.719
<v Speaker 4>Into out Shun's hands.

1:32:01.320 --> 1:32:03.519
<v Speaker 6>Charlie did get the health though, so he rushes back

1:32:03.560 --> 1:32:05.560
<v Speaker 6>to the cave and gives it to Princess, but the

1:32:05.680 --> 1:32:08.599
<v Speaker 6>robot voice informs him that health can only help the wounded,

1:32:09.240 --> 1:32:13.640
<v Speaker 6>and Princess is dead. Charlie has a flashback montage of

1:32:13.760 --> 1:32:16.240
<v Speaker 6>Kate princess memories and informs the game that he wants

1:32:16.400 --> 1:32:20.000
<v Speaker 6>to give her his last life. With that, Princess wakes

1:32:20.080 --> 1:32:24.280
<v Speaker 6>up to Charlie's kiss, which is a decision. She tells

1:32:24.360 --> 1:32:27.400
<v Speaker 6>him not to get too carried away and calls him Romeo,

1:32:27.880 --> 1:32:31.719
<v Speaker 6>just like Kate did. Also, Princess's hand is back thanks

1:32:31.760 --> 1:32:34.479
<v Speaker 6>to the health art. He reminds Princess she isn't real,

1:32:34.840 --> 1:32:37.880
<v Speaker 6>She's just his memories of Kate's memories. She exists to

1:32:37.960 --> 1:32:40.639
<v Speaker 6>motivate Charlie to not give up the game. But when

1:32:40.680 --> 1:32:43.120
<v Speaker 6>she finds out Aushan has the briefcase, she's Adam and

1:32:43.200 --> 1:32:45.080
<v Speaker 6>they get it back. There's a weapon inside and if

1:32:45.080 --> 1:32:47.439
<v Speaker 6>anyone other than her opens it, it could blow up everything.

1:32:47.640 --> 1:32:47.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

1:32:47.840 --> 1:32:49.920
<v Speaker 1>See, this is where I think the script needed to

1:32:50.040 --> 1:32:53.600
<v Speaker 1>insert that there was an anti video game, like a

1:32:53.720 --> 1:32:57.760
<v Speaker 1>virus inserted into the game from an outside source. Like, Oh,

1:32:57.920 --> 1:33:01.640
<v Speaker 1>turns out the Blue Mountain Industries is actually a competing

1:33:01.760 --> 1:33:06.600
<v Speaker 1>video game company. Yeah, that has inserted itself into the

1:33:06.720 --> 1:33:09.680
<v Speaker 1>evil video game, and that he can work with that company, right,

1:33:09.720 --> 1:33:12.720
<v Speaker 1>because otherwise it's all so self contained, like she's part

1:33:12.760 --> 1:33:14.479
<v Speaker 1>of the game. It's all part of the game, so

1:33:14.520 --> 1:33:18.200
<v Speaker 1>there's no escaping it's yeah all right.

1:33:18.400 --> 1:33:23.760
<v Speaker 5>Yeah. He also killed himself and then comes back to

1:33:24.120 --> 1:33:27.640
<v Speaker 5>restart playing the game and wants to give her his

1:33:27.840 --> 1:33:28.360
<v Speaker 5>last life.

1:33:28.560 --> 1:33:30.720
<v Speaker 3>Somebody that he's already part of the game, right.

1:33:31.360 --> 1:33:34.800
<v Speaker 6>Aushan returns and wards off bullets with his sword. Yeah,

1:33:34.840 --> 1:33:35.760
<v Speaker 6>your Will's Favor part.

1:33:36.080 --> 1:33:37.400
<v Speaker 3>I love it, I love it so much.

1:33:38.120 --> 1:33:41.080
<v Speaker 6>Charlie and Princess make a run for it, falling down

1:33:41.160 --> 1:33:43.640
<v Speaker 6>a hole and write into a video game version of

1:33:43.720 --> 1:33:46.599
<v Speaker 6>Charlie's apartment. Princess notices the pictures of Kate and then

1:33:46.640 --> 1:33:49.240
<v Speaker 6>suddenly they're in the hospital. They see Charlie lying on

1:33:49.280 --> 1:33:51.479
<v Speaker 6>the bed with his friends all around him. The game

1:33:51.600 --> 1:33:54.840
<v Speaker 6>wasn't lying. He is in the hospital. Aushan appears in

1:33:54.840 --> 1:33:56.680
<v Speaker 6>the hallway, so they run away again, now into an

1:33:56.720 --> 1:33:59.800
<v Speaker 6>underground seller. Charlie has four bullets left and finds out

1:33:59.840 --> 1:34:02.479
<v Speaker 6>no no one has ever beaten this level. We cut

1:34:02.560 --> 1:34:05.360
<v Speaker 6>to a doom like first person shooter and aw Shun

1:34:05.439 --> 1:34:07.759
<v Speaker 6>is now toying with them in the cellar. He slices

1:34:07.800 --> 1:34:11.280
<v Speaker 6>into Princess's back and Charlie unsuccessfully fires three of his bullets,

1:34:11.600 --> 1:34:14.479
<v Speaker 6>and when he attends to Princess's cut, he notices a

1:34:14.560 --> 1:34:17.639
<v Speaker 6>blue mountain tattoo on her back. Charlie finds a health

1:34:17.680 --> 1:34:19.040
<v Speaker 6>heart and wants to give it to Princess, but she

1:34:19.120 --> 1:34:21.840
<v Speaker 6>begs him to take it instead, Charlie comes up with

1:34:21.880 --> 1:34:23.960
<v Speaker 6>a plan. He turns off all the lights and tells

1:34:24.000 --> 1:34:27.120
<v Speaker 6>Princess not to move. Aushon notices the abandoned heart health

1:34:27.160 --> 1:34:29.519
<v Speaker 6>and makes his way toward it, and so Charlie finally

1:34:29.560 --> 1:34:31.519
<v Speaker 6>gets a clear shot of him and shoots him right

1:34:31.560 --> 1:34:34.479
<v Speaker 6>in the chest with his last bullet. Before Aushon dies,

1:34:34.520 --> 1:34:38.320
<v Speaker 6>he looks at Charlie and gargles out in his demented voice, fudshot.

1:34:41.439 --> 1:34:44.080
<v Speaker 6>Charlie grabs the heart and refills his health just as

1:34:44.160 --> 1:34:48.320
<v Speaker 6>Princess grabs the briefcase. But the game isn't over. He

1:34:48.439 --> 1:34:50.519
<v Speaker 6>asks the robot voice if he should open the briefcase,

1:34:50.560 --> 1:34:53.320
<v Speaker 6>and it says no. Princess thinks they need to take

1:34:53.320 --> 1:34:55.759
<v Speaker 6>it to the observatory, but Charlie realizes that Blue Mountain

1:34:55.880 --> 1:34:58.559
<v Speaker 6>is just a red herring. Princess has had the tattoo

1:34:58.600 --> 1:35:00.680
<v Speaker 6>for as long as she can remember, so he realizes

1:35:01.160 --> 1:35:04.360
<v Speaker 6>she's the final destination. Princess thinks it could be a trap,

1:35:04.400 --> 1:35:06.880
<v Speaker 6>but Charlie needs her to trust him. She opens the

1:35:06.920 --> 1:35:10.439
<v Speaker 6>case and whatever is inside is glowing. It's the game system,

1:35:10.840 --> 1:35:15.400
<v Speaker 6>but instead of start this one says end if Charlie

1:35:15.439 --> 1:35:18.800
<v Speaker 6>presses it, the whole world will cease to exist. He

1:35:18.880 --> 1:35:22.280
<v Speaker 6>slams the briefcase shut. He can't let Princess disappear. He

1:35:22.400 --> 1:35:24.640
<v Speaker 6>wants to be with her. She reminds him that he

1:35:24.720 --> 1:35:27.400
<v Speaker 6>wants to be with Kate, not her. Nothing is real

1:35:27.439 --> 1:35:30.080
<v Speaker 6>inside the game. Maybe she can even find her way

1:35:30.120 --> 1:35:32.160
<v Speaker 6>back to him. She feels it in her heart.

1:35:32.840 --> 1:35:33.639
<v Speaker 4>This isn't goodbye.

1:35:34.360 --> 1:35:37.320
<v Speaker 6>She kisses him and he starts to cry. She moves

1:35:37.400 --> 1:35:39.840
<v Speaker 6>his thumb to the end button and they press it together.

1:35:40.400 --> 1:35:43.240
<v Speaker 6>Everything goes bright white, and Charlie is back to where

1:35:43.280 --> 1:35:45.760
<v Speaker 6>he started. The voice reveals that he's beaten the game

1:35:45.800 --> 1:35:48.920
<v Speaker 6>and asks if he'd like to play again. Charlie says no,

1:35:49.360 --> 1:35:53.040
<v Speaker 6>and they exchange goodbyes, and then back in real life

1:35:53.040 --> 1:35:55.479
<v Speaker 6>at the hospital, Charlie wakes up and the nurse runs

1:35:55.520 --> 1:35:58.920
<v Speaker 6>to get the doctor now alone. However, the evil cop

1:35:59.000 --> 1:36:01.320
<v Speaker 6>walks in and tells Charlie that if he ever reveals

1:36:01.400 --> 1:36:03.800
<v Speaker 6>the truth about what happened in the alleyway, he will

1:36:03.920 --> 1:36:05.040
<v Speaker 6>hunt him down.

1:36:07.320 --> 1:36:09.479
<v Speaker 3>Because he was just so like. He wakes up a

1:36:09.560 --> 1:36:10.840
<v Speaker 3>acma to the cop, like listen to.

1:36:10.880 --> 1:36:13.800
<v Speaker 1>Me, man, to shut your mouth.

1:36:16.640 --> 1:36:19.200
<v Speaker 6>When the nurse returns The cop shows off a big

1:36:19.360 --> 1:36:22.000
<v Speaker 6>fake smile and nods to Charlie, confirming that they understand

1:36:22.040 --> 1:36:24.320
<v Speaker 6>the agreement. The cop leaves and the nurse says he

1:36:24.400 --> 1:36:26.719
<v Speaker 6>came by every single day to see if he was awake.

1:36:27.200 --> 1:36:29.000
<v Speaker 6>Charlie asks how long he's been out, and the doctor

1:36:29.040 --> 1:36:31.719
<v Speaker 6>says four days. They ask if he remembers what happened

1:36:31.720 --> 1:36:35.639
<v Speaker 6>to him, and Charlie lies says no. Peter drops Charlie

1:36:35.680 --> 1:36:38.519
<v Speaker 6>off at home and mentions they're having a barbecue this time.

1:36:39.160 --> 1:36:41.360
<v Speaker 4>Charlie agrees to come keep a barbecue all the time.

1:36:42.080 --> 1:36:46.200
<v Speaker 6>Later, at the Sad Sack Cafe, Charlie walks in now

1:36:46.280 --> 1:36:49.080
<v Speaker 6>with styled hair, a new wardrobe, and a little pep

1:36:49.120 --> 1:36:51.639
<v Speaker 6>in his step. The waitress is happy to have him back.

1:36:52.000 --> 1:36:54.640
<v Speaker 6>His usual table is occupied, but Charlie says he'll just

1:36:54.720 --> 1:36:58.160
<v Speaker 6>sit somewhere else he needs to change things up. At

1:36:58.200 --> 1:37:01.200
<v Speaker 6>a new table, he meets a cute young waitress named Pamela.

1:37:01.560 --> 1:37:03.599
<v Speaker 6>When she asks what he'd like to order, he tells

1:37:03.680 --> 1:37:08.200
<v Speaker 6>her to pick. Pamela decides he should get the roast.

1:37:08.080 --> 1:37:13.000
<v Speaker 3>Beef with ax, and he looks at her. He goes,

1:37:13.240 --> 1:37:15.160
<v Speaker 3>there's this great abandon lot I'd love to take you to.

1:37:17.880 --> 1:37:20.519
<v Speaker 6>Charlie's face lights up and invites Pamela to his friend's

1:37:20.600 --> 1:37:24.000
<v Speaker 6>barbecue later. Unfortunately, Pamela's pulling a double shift tonight, but

1:37:24.080 --> 1:37:27.200
<v Speaker 6>if he comes by tomorrow they'll see what happens. She

1:37:27.360 --> 1:37:31.400
<v Speaker 6>calls him Romeo, just like Kate and Princess used to. Then,

1:37:31.720 --> 1:37:35.639
<v Speaker 6>to really drive the point home, the other waitress calls

1:37:35.720 --> 1:37:43.360
<v Speaker 6>out to Pamela as Princess. Charlie laughs to himself, and

1:37:43.479 --> 1:37:47.479
<v Speaker 6>then Charlie walks into the barbecue and his friends are

1:37:47.600 --> 1:37:50.280
<v Speaker 6>thrilled to see him. Peter asks if he's brought his

1:37:50.360 --> 1:37:53.000
<v Speaker 6>new game system, and Charlie says no, he gave it

1:37:53.200 --> 1:37:55.080
<v Speaker 6>to an old friend.

1:38:00.240 --> 1:38:04.360
<v Speaker 3>Manly garage with a motorcycle and drinking a beer.

1:38:04.880 --> 1:38:08.759
<v Speaker 6>Cop is drinking a beer while listening to the heavy

1:38:08.880 --> 1:38:11.559
<v Speaker 6>metal He unwraps a familiar.

1:38:11.960 --> 1:38:13.439
<v Speaker 1>Didn't listen to the lyrics at this point, but I

1:38:13.479 --> 1:38:15.240
<v Speaker 1>wonder if there if they are lyrics, I'm sure they

1:38:15.280 --> 1:38:17.400
<v Speaker 1>were evil cops sitting.

1:38:17.240 --> 1:38:22.920
<v Speaker 3>Down the kid. I hate people, people hate.

1:38:23.200 --> 1:38:23.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

1:38:28.280 --> 1:38:31.559
<v Speaker 6>He places the headset on his head and he's welcome

1:38:31.680 --> 1:38:33.599
<v Speaker 6>to the game, and then.

1:38:35.240 --> 1:38:40.040
<v Speaker 4>The credits start to roll, and that is game.

1:38:39.920 --> 1:38:42.280
<v Speaker 1>Box, Game Box.

1:38:44.320 --> 1:38:46.679
<v Speaker 3>I have a pitch all right, okay, I have a pitch.

1:38:48.600 --> 1:38:51.320
<v Speaker 3>So Airplane, the movie Airplane.

1:38:52.680 --> 1:38:56.479
<v Speaker 5>What they did they went and they actually got an

1:38:56.520 --> 1:38:59.599
<v Speaker 5>actual script of a real movie that existed, and they

1:38:59.720 --> 1:39:04.160
<v Speaker 5>added at all the jokes we still know basically the

1:39:04.200 --> 1:39:05.840
<v Speaker 5>whole cast of Game Box.

1:39:07.320 --> 1:39:07.960
<v Speaker 3>To shoot it.

1:39:08.200 --> 1:39:11.160
<v Speaker 5>Very small amount of money, we could turn this into

1:39:11.240 --> 1:39:13.880
<v Speaker 5>the one of the best comedies, like with like Patrick

1:39:13.920 --> 1:39:15.280
<v Speaker 5>Renna holding the ham Sandwich.

1:39:15.320 --> 1:39:16.759
<v Speaker 3>As we would have to, we can.

1:39:16.760 --> 1:39:18.880
<v Speaker 1>Use all of that. We probably have to use a

1:39:19.160 --> 1:39:21.400
<v Speaker 1>I to do all the visual effects, though, unless how

1:39:21.520 --> 1:39:24.080
<v Speaker 1>much praise the millions dollars, I don't.

1:39:23.920 --> 1:39:25.720
<v Speaker 3>Think we'd have to. I'm saying the effects are so

1:39:25.920 --> 1:39:26.920
<v Speaker 3>bad that we could.

1:39:27.160 --> 1:39:30.080
<v Speaker 1>Keep them this level. But even that requires some I

1:39:30.120 --> 1:39:31.479
<v Speaker 1>mean somebody put in the work.

1:39:31.360 --> 1:39:31.960
<v Speaker 3>For this movie.

1:39:32.000 --> 1:39:34.960
<v Speaker 5>I agree, But I bet you, for not that much money,

1:39:35.040 --> 1:39:37.360
<v Speaker 5>we could add ten or twelve little minutes to this

1:39:37.479 --> 1:39:39.760
<v Speaker 5>thing that make it the funniest movie anybody's ever seen.

1:39:39.840 --> 1:39:41.240
<v Speaker 1>Maybe if we do it, it was like a kickstarter.

1:39:41.400 --> 1:39:45.919
<v Speaker 1>With our listeners, we can figure out what's funny. Danielle

1:39:46.160 --> 1:39:50.240
<v Speaker 1>is so fun point, It'll be one point she is

1:39:50.400 --> 1:39:51.240
<v Speaker 1>so upset by this.

1:39:52.960 --> 1:39:54.080
