It might sound kind of 46 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 1: cheesy because it's kind of a simple movie, not really 47 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: an OSCAR nominated type movie, but a League of their 48 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 1: own that's a great one with Tom Hanks in it. 49 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 1: I mean you can just put it on and like 50 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: I'm currently I currently haven't playing in the background while 51 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:51,360 Speaker 1: I've been training this morning, and it's just like Bobby, 52 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: Like I can listen to it and I know exactly 53 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 1: what's going on without having to watch it. But I 54 00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: still love it. I think that's the perfect formula for 55 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: one of your favorite He's the one that you can 56 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: just watch.

So I think that's a 60 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 1: great one. You don't have to be like have some 61 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 1: super prolific movie pick at your favorite movie.

Random guess. Well, your random guesses are 104 00:05:55,760 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 1: pretty good, because that is Captain Phillips.

Everything. All right, who are you? 169 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: I say, it's me, Paul, who live here? What is 170 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:20,680 Speaker 1: this nonsense? That's you? Is your father? Seemed a bit confused? 171 00:10:21,559 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 1: Something wrong? Where? Sorry? Where is she? I'm here? There's 172 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: something funny going on. So the movie stars Anthony Hopkins 173 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 1: and Olivia Coleman, and it's about Anthony Hopkins character who 174 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 1: is refusing all assistance really from his daughter as he's 175 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: getting older. He's starting to not be able to remember 176 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: things and overall just not being able to take care 177 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,680 Speaker 1: of himself. She's trying to move on with her life 178 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 1: and become more independent and not have to be around 179 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: her father all the time. And he's really just trying 180 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: to get a grip on all the changes in his 181 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: life and in his head. He's beginning to doubt the 182 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 1: people around him and really just kind of losing grasp 183 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 1: on what reality is. And I think that's why this 184 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: movie was so powerful while I was watching it, is 185 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:12,400 Speaker 1: that it's such an amazing performance from Anthony Hopkins, especially 186 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 1: at his age in his eighties, and he gives what 187 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: I would say is just such a fragile performance of 188 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 1: somebody going through something like this, And why this movie 189 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:25,599 Speaker 1: feels different to me is because you experience these symptoms 190 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 1: as the character, as he's kind of losing pieces of 191 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,319 Speaker 1: his memory and not being able to put things together 192 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 1: and really being confused by going through this. You experience 193 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 1: it as him, So while the movie is going through, 194 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,439 Speaker 1: you're kind of trying to put the pieces together as 195 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 1: somebody who is losing their memory, and it almost feels 196 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 1: like a little bit of a mystery because yourself are 197 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: wondering how this is going to connect, what these changes 198 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,080 Speaker 1: mean to him, and how these characters are all kind 199 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:58,560 Speaker 1: of revolving around in his head. And really it's a 200 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 1: heartbreaking thing. You think about memory loss like this when 201 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:06,840 Speaker 1: you're getting older, Like it's really something we take for granted, 202 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: Like I was thinking about it if I was in 203 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 1: this situation of when I am older, wanting to still 204 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,839 Speaker 1: be independent, and the only thing he really has to 205 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,960 Speaker 1: hold onto in this movie is his flat, you know, 206 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: his apartment, and by all costs he's trying to hold 207 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 1: onto that, not wanting to be put into a home. 208 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 1: He's like, I can take care of myself. I'm fine, 209 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:28,640 Speaker 1: you can have people come by and check on me. 210 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: But I'm not giving up this apartment. And he gets 211 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 1: to the point to where he goes to sleep, and 212 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 1: then he wakes up and he feels like he's in 213 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 1: a completely different place and all these people are telling 214 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:42,720 Speaker 1: them different things, and it's just really heartbreaking, kind of 215 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 1: really makes you want to cherish life and just that 216 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 1: ability to remember things. I've never thought of that it 217 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 1: was something that could be taken away from me. So 218 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: I know it's always a hard thing to think about 219 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 1: what your life would be like when you get older 220 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 1: and you can't take care of yourself. So if you're 221 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 1: in a mental space right now to where you want 222 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 1: to watch a movie like that, you want to get 223 00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 1: this story and experience it the way Anthony Hopkins portrays it. 224 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 1: I think it's a really great movie to watch, and 225 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:19,599 Speaker 1: probably on all the movie picks in the best picture category, 226 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,439 Speaker 1: I would say the most underrated of them all because 227 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 1: it's a pretty simple story. It's a very minimal cast, 228 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: like there's only eight credited actors in the entire movie, 229 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: and for the most part, the entire movie takes place 230 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:35,079 Speaker 1: in his apartment in one other location. So I really 231 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:38,520 Speaker 1: like that kind of minimal, stripped downcast and overall you're 232 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 1: just kind of focusing on the story. It's shot beautifully. 233 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,080 Speaker 1: Even the music in this movie really kind of makes 234 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 1: you feel something. There's moments to where his character realizes 235 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 1: something or he forgets something, and they play this music 236 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: that it kind of strikes a chord with you, like, oh, man, 237 00:13:54,559 --> 00:14:01,440 Speaker 1: like this is a really emotional and sad thing. So 238 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,679 Speaker 1: I thought it was a beautiful score for the movie. 239 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 1: And it's very rare now that a score or just 240 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: the music created just for a movie really makes me 241 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:17,199 Speaker 1: feel something, and this one did. So I'm gonna get 242 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:19,160 Speaker 1: into the next of how I would rank all the 243 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 1: Best Picture nominees, but before I get into that, I 244 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 1: easily give The Father four point five out of five flats. 245 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 1: I think the performance from Anthony Hopkins is really great, 246 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: especially at his age, and I still don't think that 247 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: he'll win for Best Actor, but man, he really kind 248 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 1: of deserves it. I just don't think he'll get the 249 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 1: votes on this one. There's one scene in particular I 250 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 1: won't ruin the movie, but where he gives such an 251 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 1: emotional performance, and it's the way you see a character 252 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: at his age portraying an emotion that maybe your child 253 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: would feel was a really powerful thing. But the only 254 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 1: bad part I would say about this is it is 255 00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 1: a twenty dollar rental or go seed and it or 256 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 1: so if you're looking for somewhere to watch this, those 257 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 1: are really your only options right now. But it was 258 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:09,520 Speaker 1: a fantastic movie. Really loved it. I want to get 259 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,760 Speaker 1: into now ranking the Best Picture nominees from the Oscars 260 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 1: this Sunday by entertainment value, because I've already picked No 261 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 1: my Land as the one I think will win Best 262 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 1: Picture based on how good the movie was and how 263 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: I think critics and people voting on these kind of 264 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: awards will vote. I just think that's kind of a 265 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 1: shoe in an easy pick for the Best Picture overall, 266 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 1: I think that will win this Sunday. But then after 267 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: the awards happened, I know a lot of people like 268 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: to go back and watch some of the nominees, especially 269 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 1: the one that ends up winning the big award, And 270 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 1: I think it's also just important to know, like which 271 00:15:41,120 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 1: ones are the most entertaining has nothing to do with 272 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 1: the acting or the archiness of the movie. Just what 273 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: could you sit down and watch and be entertained by 274 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: and not have to know a whole lot about film 275 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 1: or anything. So this is my guide to the most 276 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: entertaining Best Picture nominees. There are eight movies nominated. I'll 277 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: rank them one through eight. As we go higher in 278 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 1: the list, I think you'll enjoy them more no matter 279 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: what level of movie fan you are. So starting first 280 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 1: at number eight, a movie I wouldn't even recommend watching, 281 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: even though it's on Netflix, is Make It's just an 282 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: art film. It's very artsy, it's very inside a movie 283 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 1: about making a movie. And while there are really great 284 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: actors in it, really great performances from them, I didn't 285 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 1: really find myself even wanting to finish the movie, and 286 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: I think maybe in a year or two, no one 287 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: will even refer back to this movie. So by entertainment value, 288 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 1: putting in over two hours to watch this black and 289 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 1: white movie, I don't think it's really worth their time, 290 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 1: So that one's at number eight. Next up at number seven, 291 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 1: I would put the Sound of Metal, where I was 292 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 1: really interested about this movie really overall topic. It's about 293 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 1: a drummer in a metal band who starts to lose 294 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 1: his hearing, then completely goes deaf. He tries a lot 295 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: of things to get his hearing back and then kind 296 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: of really comes to terms with embracing the deaf community, 297 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 1: and you learn all about his story. And while I 298 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 1: really love the overall premise of it, I just think 299 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:09,119 Speaker 1: entertainment wise, it's a very slow burn. You have to 300 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,480 Speaker 1: kind of be into what's going on in the movie 301 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 1: and the character development. It's a movie. I was more 302 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:17,640 Speaker 1: excited by the premise than entertained while I was watching 303 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 1: the movie, So I had to put that one at 304 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:22,640 Speaker 1: number seven. Still a good movie, though, I would say 305 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 1: from seven up they're all still good movies, just have 306 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 1: a different level of entertainment value. At number six, I 307 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 1: would put Manari, which was one of the ones I 308 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,920 Speaker 1: was most excited about. One because it's a film, but 309 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:39,479 Speaker 1: too because it follows the story of a Korean family 310 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 1: coming to America, living in Arkansas and trying to live 311 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,639 Speaker 1: the American dream. One I think we could all relate 312 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,439 Speaker 1: with a lot was my parents being from Mexico and 313 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 1: came here to the United States. I felt a lot 314 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 1: of their similar things that they go through in this 315 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 1: movie kind of resonate with my life and my parents life. 316 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:58,159 Speaker 1: So I saw a lot of what my family has 317 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 1: had to go through in this movie also a little 318 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 1: bit of a slow burn to There's nothing crazy atlantage 319 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 1: that happens in this movie, but it's overall just a 320 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 1: really unique story to tell, and even though it has 321 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 1: a slower pace, I never found myself really being bored 322 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 1: in this movie. The only reason I think it would 323 00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:18,119 Speaker 1: bring down a little bit lower in the list is 324 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 1: you do have to do a little bit of reading 325 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 1: because there are some subtitles, which I've really kind of 326 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 1: completely changed how I feel about movies with subtitles. If 327 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: a movie is really good, you won't notice the subtitles 328 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 1: by i'd say twenty minutes into the movie. I think 329 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 1: after Parasite came out last year and did so well, 330 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:38,679 Speaker 1: that was the one that everybody kind of watched and 331 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: was like, you know what, didn't even affect me, So 332 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 1: I think you'll get that same kind of feeling when 333 00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 1: watching Minori put that one at number six. At number 334 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,639 Speaker 1: five is the movie I picked to win Best Picture 335 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 1: of Nomad Land, which is a very beautiful film and 336 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:53,439 Speaker 1: a movie that will make you want to pack up 337 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:56,360 Speaker 1: all your things, throw them in a van and go 338 00:18:56,480 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 1: out and explore the United States. But I did feel 339 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 1: a little bit like this one was just a little 340 00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 1: bit of Oscar bait, throwing Francis McDorman in there, and 341 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,120 Speaker 1: it's filled with a bunch of prolific quotes and kind 342 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,200 Speaker 1: of imagery and kind of has that indie low five 343 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 1: feel a little bit. So unless you're super into that 344 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:18,159 Speaker 1: kind of style of movie, you may not find it 345 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 1: as entertaining as the ones I put in the top three. 346 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,639 Speaker 1: So it's right outside of that. So I think being 347 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 1: there kind of in the middle of the list from 348 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:30,880 Speaker 1: entertainment value and critical to claim, I think that's why 349 00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:33,679 Speaker 1: it has the perfect kind of formula to win Best Picture. 350 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:36,199 Speaker 1: So that's why I'm putting it at number five. At 351 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 1: number four, I'm putting the movie I just reviewed earlier, 352 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 1: The Father, Again. I just gave you my entire review 353 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 1: of why it's such a great movie and ranking it 354 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: among the other ones. It's right there, close to the top, 355 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:50,120 Speaker 1: but just outside of the top three, which I'll get 356 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,879 Speaker 1: to now. At number three, I'm going with the Trial 357 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 1: of the Chicago Seven. Now, this is a true story 358 00:19:56,440 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: and it's a courtroom drama. Win I first watched it, 359 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,119 Speaker 1: I'll was like, how could they really make a courtroom 360 00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:05,520 Speaker 1: drama of that? Interesting and engaging, but within the very 361 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,680 Speaker 1: first ten minutes you're like, man, they did it, they 362 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:12,400 Speaker 1: got it right. You learn a lot about history. It's 363 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 1: the right amount of courthouse drama, real life violence, and 364 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 1: people kind of coming together to do something that's right. 365 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 1: It's also a movie that came out at a very 366 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,640 Speaker 1: relevant time, so I think this is when you could 367 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,439 Speaker 1: watch and kind of learn about history, what went on 368 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 1: back then, and kind of applied to what's going on now. 369 00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: And it also has a pretty star studded cast with 370 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,640 Speaker 1: Sasha Baron, Cohen, Eddie Redmain just to name a couple 371 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: of actors in this movie. One I think you could 372 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 1: throw on Netflix. No matter who's in the room will 373 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:44,800 Speaker 1: enjoy something from The Trial to Chicago seven. So I 374 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 1: put that one at number three. At number two, I 375 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 1: went with Promising Young Woman, and I rated it this 376 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,640 Speaker 1: way because when I sat down to watch it, Kelsey 377 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: was in the room too, but it wasn't really interested 378 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: in watching this movie. He didn't really know what it 379 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,240 Speaker 1: was about. But about twenty minutes and she was like, 380 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 1: you know what, this is actually pretty entertaining and watched 381 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,640 Speaker 1: the rest of the movie with me. So I feel 382 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,159 Speaker 1: like if I was enjoying it, and it's just somebody 383 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,400 Speaker 1: on the side kind of scouring in watching the movie 384 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 1: enjoyed it. I think it has a pretty high entertainment 385 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 1: value for anybody. And overall, I think this is a 386 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,639 Speaker 1: movie that really kind of by the time it was 387 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,880 Speaker 1: coming to an end, had me in suspense. If there 388 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 1: was any movie from this list that I was standing 389 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 1: on the edge of my seat, getting up and wanting 390 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: to yell at the screen, it was definitely Promising Young Woman. 391 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 1: A movie that will make you hate man, A movie 392 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,680 Speaker 1: that will make you want to seek revenge out of 393 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 1: anybody that did you wrong in the most creative, ludicrous, 394 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 1: and possibly dangerous way, is what Promising Young Woman is about. 395 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 1: Movie I would love to see when for Best Picture, 396 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 1: but glad it has so much attention around it because 397 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 1: I think it is a movie that more of us 398 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 1: should watch. And I think, no matter what kind of 399 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,400 Speaker 1: movie you're into, you'll like something from Promising Young Woman. 400 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 1: So I put that one at number two, and then 401 00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 1: at number one I have to go with Judas in 402 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 1: The Black Messiah along the same lines of how Promising 403 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: Young Woman had me sitting on the edge of my 404 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 1: seat by the end of it. I would say Judas 405 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:07,480 Speaker 1: in the Black MASSI had me on the edge of 406 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: my seat throughout the entire movie. It's a movie that 407 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 1: will get your blood boiling. It's a movie that's shot amazingly. 408 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 1: From the cast and the music, this is really the 409 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:21,760 Speaker 1: most perfect film out of all the Best Picture nominees 410 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,200 Speaker 1: when it comes to being entertaining, and then of all 411 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 1: the Best Picture nominees, I think it transcends any kind 412 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 1: of movie fan. It does a really great job of 413 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 1: keeping everything explained within the movie. You may want to 414 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 1: do some research after you watch this to see how 415 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 1: true some of the things were, which if you lack 416 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,560 Speaker 1: those kind of movies, a great one for that. But 417 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 1: you don't have to know a lot about the history 418 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 1: to enjoy this movie. A movie that I think is 419 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 1: not only relevant now, but in like five ten years 420 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 1: will still be known as one of the best movies 421 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 1: from the twenties, which is a weird thing to say. 422 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 1: I don't know how you say that, but yes, it'll 423 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: still be one of the best films. So when it 424 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 1: comes to being the most entertaining film of all the 425 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: That's Picture nominees, you gotta go with Judas in the 426 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 1: Black Messiah. So we're just looking for one to sit 427 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 1: down and watch. Maybe you're sitting down with the family, 428 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: maybe you're sitting down with your significant other. I think 429 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 1: you'll both watch this movie and like it by the 430 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 1: end of it. So that is the ranking of the 431 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 1: Best Picture nominees. I will be watching intently to the 432 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:22,440 Speaker 1: Oscars this Sunday. You can follow me on Twitter at 433 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 1: my d show to get all my thoughts as those 434 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 1: are happening, and then I'll talk about them on the 435 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 1: following podcast. It's Tom, It's Tom, It's Tom Fulsome movie news. Yeah, 436 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 1: I don't have the budget for fancy jingles, so we're 437 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,880 Speaker 1: going with that. First up in movie news this week 438 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 1: is Fast and the Furious dropped the brand new trailer. 439 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 1: They set their release date. Before I talk about this trailer, 440 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:48,360 Speaker 1: here's just a little bit. If you missed it, spent 441 00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 1: my entire life in your shuttle. No, you spend the 442 00:23:55,640 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 1: rest of yours learning mind really well, fal real, real fealday. 443 00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:10,920 Speaker 1: So thats a trailer for F nine, the ninth film 444 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: and the Fast and the Furious franchise. And I think 445 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 1: I just love the fact that they are just going 446 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 1: by F nine f TN f whatever. However, many of 447 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 1: movies they're gonna do in the Fast Interfurious franchise, not 448 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 1: even the Fasts and the Furious franchise anymore. It's now 449 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 1: called the Fat Saga. So there's so many of these 450 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 1: movies that they could just call their movies Fast, which 451 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:31,280 Speaker 1: I think is interesting. But this movie is now coming 452 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 1: out on June, my birthday, which I was supposed to 453 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:38,480 Speaker 1: get The Batman on June, but now we got f nine. Now, 454 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 1: I for a minute didn't really understand the Fast in 455 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 1: the Furious movies, like the first one came out changed everything. 456 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 1: The second and third one I felt like I was 457 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:50,879 Speaker 1: totally into, and then I got kind of mixed up 458 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: there between four and seven, and then I'm kind of 459 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 1: back into it now because I kind of realized that 460 00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 1: they're not really about racing anymore. They're not even like 461 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,919 Speaker 1: humans really, they're kind of like superheroes because in this 462 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:07,400 Speaker 1: trailer they go to space basically they're fighting I don't 463 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 1: even know what anymore, and bringing people back from the dead. 464 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,400 Speaker 1: There's just so much going on to this franchise. It's 465 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:16,199 Speaker 1: basically now like a soap opera. In each installment of 466 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:19,400 Speaker 1: The Fast and the Furious franchise, so I will take 467 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: this one on my birthday. I think when you go 468 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:23,719 Speaker 1: to the movies and watch a movie like Fast and 469 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 1: the Furious, you really get everything you want at the 470 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 1: movie experience, big crazy fight scenes, car chases, explosions, cheesy 471 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: action lines like it really has it all. So these 472 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 1: movies make so much money that they keep making them, 473 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,680 Speaker 1: and I think people enjoy them, and I just love 474 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:43,240 Speaker 1: that there's still space in the world for a franchise 475 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 1: like this, So I'm all about The Fast and the 476 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,159 Speaker 1: Furious right now. The interesting thing I did see this 477 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 1: week also in this was that the director said he's 478 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:54,120 Speaker 1: not ruling out a Jurassic World crossover, which I thought 479 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 1: would be an amazing thing. I mean, we saw that 480 00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,960 Speaker 1: kind of succeed with cong versus Godzilla that you could cry. 481 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:02,160 Speaker 1: It's two franchises over, which is not a new thing 482 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,440 Speaker 1: by any means. But I felt like when he said 483 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 1: Jurassic World and Fastened and Furious, that is two completely 484 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 1: different franchises that in no way really connect, and I 485 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 1: would love to see something like that. I actually think 486 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 1: next week I'll do an episode on what kind of 487 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: movie franchises you would like to see completely cross over 488 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:25,120 Speaker 1: that probably make no sense whatsoever, but could just possibly work. 489 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 1: So I think I've worked it into next week's episode. 490 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,679 Speaker 1: Also in movie news, Pete Davidson will play Joey Ramone 491 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 1: in a Netflix biopic. It's called I Slept with Joey 492 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: Ramon and it is based on the book by the 493 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:39,919 Speaker 1: same name, written by Joey Ramon's brother, Mickey Lee. And 494 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 1: the Ramons were punk rock pioneers. If you're not familiar 495 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:47,280 Speaker 1: with the Ramons, you've probably heard them on a commercial 496 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 1: at some point or on the radio. Here's their song, 497 00:26:50,040 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: Glitz Creek Bop. Let's Go, Let's Go, Let's Go. So 498 00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,879 Speaker 1: that's the Ramons. Joey Ramone is the lead singer, and 499 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 1: I just found this like a really interesting choice to 500 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 1: play him. Now. I like Pete Davidson. I'm a Pete 501 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 1: Davidson fan. I like his comedy, although I've never really 502 00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,200 Speaker 1: seen him in a movie play a character that's not 503 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,439 Speaker 1: Pete Davidson. Like. I know he was in the Motley 504 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 1: Crewe Netflix movie, but when it comes to him seeing 505 00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:26,359 Speaker 1: him as a serious actor, it's not quite there yet. 506 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 1: So I think it's an interesting choice. But they must 507 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 1: have something and an idea of how they want Joey 508 00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:35,440 Speaker 1: Ramon to be portrayed, that they think Pete Davidson would 509 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 1: make a good pick. Now, I just hope that he 510 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 1: doesn't be Pete Davidson and is I kind of want 511 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,679 Speaker 1: to see him be a little bit more of a 512 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:46,879 Speaker 1: serious actor in this now. Joey Ramone, while on stage, 513 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,119 Speaker 1: you know, they were a punk rock band with the 514 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: leather jackets. They had this attitude, they had this look 515 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:55,400 Speaker 1: off stage, he was very like a shy, quiet, very 516 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 1: reserved guy. And I think that's a lot of why 517 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,080 Speaker 1: growing up listening to the Ramons and being into on 518 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: rock that I kind of identified a little bit with 519 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 1: Joey Ramon and all the bands that I really listened 520 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:09,080 Speaker 1: to were so influenced by the Ramons, and growing up 521 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 1: I wanted to sound like the Ramons when I played 522 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 1: in bands. And I like that they are finally giving 523 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 1: him the biopic treatment, because I think the Ramons are 524 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 1: an underrated band when it comes to rock music, Like 525 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,360 Speaker 1: nobody really talks about them. They wear their T shirts 526 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 1: and they parody their T shirts, but you very often 527 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: hear their stories told. And this was announced on the 528 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 1: twentieth anniversary of his death. So I can't wait to 529 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: see this movie. And it is being made with the 530 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 1: full cooperation in support of Joey Ramon's estate, so I 531 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 1: think they will truly honor his legacy. So it's really 532 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 1: excited for this one. And then finally in movie news, 533 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 1: Helen McGrory died of cancer at the age of fifty two. 534 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: She was in Peaky Blinders. I knew her mainly as 535 00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 1: Draco's Mom and the Harry Potter franchise, and fifty two 536 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 1: is a very young age to see somebody pass away. 537 00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 1: And I think one of the saddest things I saw 538 00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 1: was somebody post a picture of her and Alan Rickman, 539 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 1: who was Professor Snape and Harry Potter, and it's just 540 00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 1: kind of sad to see those photos. Whenever it's two 541 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 1: actors together, knowing they both are no longer living, it's 542 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 1: just an eerie feeling to see something like that. It's 543 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 1: a sad kind of realization and growing up and realizing 544 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 1: you're gonna lose a lot of people around you, and 545 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 1: when it comes to famous people, it's a weird thing 546 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,880 Speaker 1: to feel something for somebody you don't know, but you 547 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:25,640 Speaker 1: know their work, like you really don't know them as 548 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 1: a person. When I saw that photo, it was just 549 00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 1: kind of like, man, they were just two actors who 550 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 1: worked together, who have changed the lives of many people 551 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 1: with their work, and to see them both gone now 552 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 1: just really makes you sad, whether you knew them personally 553 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 1: or not. Just a sad thing to see. But that's 554 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: gonna do it for Movie News. Do it for another 555 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 1: episode here.

Appreciate that, shout out for sending me 575 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 1: this message, And to all your students at panops Get 576 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: Valley High School, here's my advice. When you're watching a movie, 577 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 1: make asn't many notes as you can, whether in your 578 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 1: phone if you're in a theater, just mental notes in 579 00:30:50,600 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 1: your head of things you like about the movie. I 580 00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 1: think that's what I try to do with every single 581 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 1: movie I watch, which I'm probably kind of annoying to 582 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 1: watch a movie with because I have to jot things 583 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 1: down so I can talk at them later. Because I 584 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 1: think the key to making a good movie review is 585 00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 1: to making it as personal as possible, picking things apart 586 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 1: that you liked about it or things you wish they 587 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,560 Speaker 1: did differently in the movie. And the hardest thing is 588 00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:14,040 Speaker 1: remembering those things that you felt while you were watching it. 589 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 1: So it always helps to make a little note about 590 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 1: plot points, characters, or things you found that you or 591 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 1: other people would like or enjoy getting out of that movie. 592 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 1: So that is my advice to all you high school students. 593 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 1: Good luck with all of your movie reviews. Thanks everybody 594 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 1: for listening to this week's episode. I'll catch you again 595 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 1: here next week after the Oscars.
