1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,720
Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome back to movie Mike's Movie Podcast. I

2
00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:04,680
Speaker 1: am your host Movie Mike. Today, I want to talk

3
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:07,920
Speaker 1: about franchises with the most films. I have the top

4
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:10,959
Speaker 1: ten how many are in each of the franchises, and

5
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:14,200
Speaker 1: we'll talk about dead, Alive or Revive. We're gonna play

6
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 1: that game because there's a movie coming out this week,

7
00:00:16,920 --> 00:00:19,600
Speaker 1: Predator bad Lands, that I did not realize has seven

8
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 1: movies inside of it, So I'll give my thoughts on

9
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,439
Speaker 1: that movie in the spoiler free movie review in the

10
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 1: Trailer Park. Speaking of franchises with a lot of movies,

11
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:32,120
Speaker 1: Scream seven is coming out next year. We'll talk all

12
00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:34,239
Speaker 1: about that. Thank you for being here, thank you for

13
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 1: being subscribed. Shout out to the Monday Morning Movie crew.

14
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,879
Speaker 1: And now let's talk movies from the.

15
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:41,360
Speaker 2: Dustville podcast Network.

16
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 1: This is movie Mike's Movie podcas franchises.

17
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:47,599
Speaker 2: With the most films.

18
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 1: That is what we are here to talk about today

19
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 1: because in my research on this week's movie review for

20
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 1: Predator bad Lands, I did not realize there were seven

21
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 1: Predator movies inside of that franchise. So I have the

22
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: top ten and we're gonna play Dead, Alive or Revive.

23
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,319
Speaker 1: Do these franchises need to be dead and call it quits.

24
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:08,480
Speaker 1: Maybe they don't have any other new movies on the

25
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 1: horizon and they should.

26
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 2: Keep it that way. Should they stay alive.

27
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 1: Meaning they have maybe a sequel coming out, another movie

28
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 1: coming out inside of the franchise, or have they not

29
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,000
Speaker 1: put out a movie in a while and we need

30
00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 1: to revive them.

31
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 2: So let's get right into the list.

32
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:26,760
Speaker 1: At number ten, we have a three way time between

33
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 1: Teenage Mutant, Ninja Turtles, the Muppets Franchise, and Mission Impossible.

34
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: Each of these movies both have eight inside of the franchise.

35
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,760
Speaker 1: Not each number is going to have multiple franchises inside

36
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 1: of them, but they just happen to be all tied

37
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 1: with eight movies. So for this one specifically, we'll assign

38
00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 1: one of these categories to each of them. I'm gonna

39
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 1: start with dead because I think Mission Impossible should just

40
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 1: be dead. Tom Cruise rode that movie out really went

41
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 1: out on a whimper. I know they're gonna inevitably try

42
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: to revive this franchise, but I think we should block

43
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 1: it because I just don't think the excitement is there anymore.

44
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 1: As much as I enjoyed part one of the last

45
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:11,320
Speaker 1: Mission Impossible movie. I just feel that franchise should be

46
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 1: dead because what they're going to try to do is

47
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 1: bring somebody back in like a Glenn Powell, which I

48
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 1: just saw him out doing the promo for Running Man,

49
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,119
Speaker 1: him taking his classic picture with Tom Cruise, who Tom

50
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,480
Speaker 1: Cruise does like to go support big movies like this.

51
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 1: It's kind of like that stamp of approval. If Tom

52
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: Cruise goes to your premiere, that's a sign of like

53
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,119
Speaker 1: you could be the next guy up. Glenn Powell could

54
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 1: be the next face of Mission Impossible. But I just

55
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: think we should let that franchise rest. So for Mission Impossible,

56
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: I say dead, just pull the plug.

57
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:45,360
Speaker 2: For a revive.

58
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to go with the Muppets. Back in

59
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 1: twenty eleven, when the Muppets movie came out, that really

60
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: made me love all those characters again. I thought that

61
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 1: was a fantastic movie. It is the right amount of fun,

62
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 1: also the right amount of a movie that works for

63
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: young kids and also older adults who grew up with

64
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: the Muppets. I thought that movie was fantastic. They did

65
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 1: follow that movie up with Muppets Most Wanted in twenty fourteen.

66
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 1: I also love the spinoff TV show that they had

67
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 1: in the twenty tens, and since then we have not

68
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,359
Speaker 1: got another Muppets movie. It's been over a decade now

69
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 1: without it. I think it is time to revive this franchise.

70
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 1: Let's bring it back to life. There you go, power

71
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 1: it up, because I just think that these are characters

72
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 1: that need to be on the big screen and need

73
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 1: to live on forever. And there are certain franchises that

74
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 1: I feel this way about that they should be around forever,

75
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,920
Speaker 1: Franchises that I grew up with and now are still

76
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 1: relevant to kids growing up right now, even maybe ones

77
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 1: that when I grew up with them, there was a

78
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 1: whole generation before me that had already experienced that franchise

79
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 1: as well. I think The Muppets is one of those

80
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 1: that need to wan and live forever and can, but

81
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 1: it just has to translate into big box office numbers.

82
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 1: But now that it's been over a decade, I say,

83
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 1: revive it and very much alive is the TMNT franchise.

84
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 2: We have it.

85
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 1: On the animated front, we have the R rated the

86
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 1: Last Ronan movie coming out hopefully soon, maybe in the

87
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,279
Speaker 1: next two to three years. But that is a very

88
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 1: much alive franchise, So all those have eight movies each, Dead, Alive,

89
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:30,279
Speaker 1: or revive. At number nine, we have a few movies

90
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 1: here tied Rocky, Alien, Planet of the Apes, Nightmare on

91
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:40,280
Speaker 1: Elm Street, and Texas Chainsaw Massacre all have nine movies,

92
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 1: so I'm not going to go through individually on which

93
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 1: ones to keep.

94
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:44,920
Speaker 2: Alive, Dead or revive.

95
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: This is a tough one because I feel all of

96
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,719
Speaker 1: these are almost similar and where they are as far

97
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:55,039
Speaker 1: as us just being tired of them. I feel like

98
00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: all of these franchises have now peaked. Rocky has definitely peaked,

99
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 1: not only in the Rocky movies but also in the

100
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 1: Creed movies because we did have a comeback Part three.

101
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: Creed was really good, but I feel like we've seen

102
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: all the best stories that you can make out of

103
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 1: those characters. Alien probably is having the best moment right

104
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,720
Speaker 1: now with Alien Romulus, so I'll say Alien is very

105
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: much alive.

106
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 2: Planet of the Apes is also.

107
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,920
Speaker 1: Still kind of alive, even though I didn't really like

108
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,719
Speaker 1: that last movie. I think it is inevitable that we

109
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,479
Speaker 1: will get another Nightmare on Elm Street movie, and I

110
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 1: think if they do it right, it could be a

111
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:35,159
Speaker 1: really cool thing. I think they have to incorporate Robert

112
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:36,159
Speaker 1: England in some way.

113
00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 2: I know he.

114
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 1: Probably won't play Freddy Krueger ever again. So I'm gonna

115
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 1: go with Reviving a Nightmare on Elm Street just because

116
00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: I think it's almost time for that. And I think

117
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 1: Texas Chainsaw Massacre just stays dead the last I mean,

118
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: they've been fighting over the movie rights for a while now,

119
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 1: but the last Texas Chainsaw Massacre movies, especially the one

120
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 1: on Netflix, have just not been good. I think we

121
00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,800
Speaker 1: need another at least ten years before ever touching another

122
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: Texas Chainsaw a massacred movie.

123
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,359
Speaker 2: So Alien is alive, Revive a.

124
00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: Nightmare on Elm Street, and we gotta kill a Texas

125
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: Chainsaw Massacre movie from ever happening.

126
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 2: Pull the plug.

127
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 1: At number eight. We also have a three way tie

128
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 1: between Spider Man, The Mummy, and King Kong, which each

129
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 1: have ten movies each. Interesting situation here because they recently

130
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 1: announced that Brendan Fraser is coming back for another Mummy adventure.

131
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: They're gonna make The Mummy four, so they kind of

132
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 1: made my decision for me already right there. Even though

133
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 1: it is a revival, I feel it is a very

134
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 1: lukewarm revival, but I think that's gonna be one of

135
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,840
Speaker 1: those franchises that they bring back and are surprised how

136
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,840
Speaker 1: much people don't care about it. I just think the

137
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 1: best days of those movies are behind it. And I'm

138
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,479
Speaker 1: saying that as somebody who grew up with the nineteen

139
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,839
Speaker 1: ninety nine movie with Brendan Fraser not even talking about

140
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 1: how the Mummy franchise started back in nineteen thirty two,

141
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 1: had five movies that followed in the nineteen forties, in

142
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 1: the nineteen fifties with Like The Mummy's Hand, The Mummy's Tomb,

143
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: The Mummy's Ghost, The Mummies Curse. We even had Abbott

144
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,120
Speaker 1: and Costello Meet the Mummy in nineteen fifty four. But

145
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 1: I think where they really entered into pop culture, at

146
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 1: least in our lifetime, was with the nineteen ninety nine

147
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 1: movie Mummy Returns in two thousand and one, and then

148
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 1: we had the rock in the Scorpion King with two

149
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 1: thousand and two. The only thing I can say about

150
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 1: them reviving this franchise now is if you go back

151
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 1: and watch the CGI, it is pretty bad.

152
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 2: The Scorpion King has some.

153
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 1: Of the worst CGI of any movie during that time,

154
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 1: so I think that is the only thing it would

155
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 1: benefit from now. But I've been so frustrated how worse

156
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 1: CGI has been just in the last two years where

157
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,360
Speaker 1: it should be peak. There are movies that came out

158
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: in the late two thousands that look better than things

159
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 1: that came out in twenty twenty four and twenty twenty five.

160
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: And I think movies are starting to cut corners a

161
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,240
Speaker 1: little bit, and it's starting to show. But that is

162
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,920
Speaker 1: the only reason I can see this movie benefiting from

163
00:08:08,920 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 1: coming out Right now, we're reviving The Mummy. I'm gonna

164
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 1: say we kill King Kong. The original King Kong movie

165
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:19,080
Speaker 1: was released back in nineteen thirty three, was so successful

166
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 1: they came out with the sequel Son of Kong, and

167
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: then it wasn't until the nineteen sixties that King Kong

168
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 1: returned to the big screen and King Kong Versus Godzilla

169
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: in nineteen sixty two. We had King Kong Escapes in

170
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty seven. The movies I'm more familiar with were

171
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,439
Speaker 1: the Peter Jackson King Kong in two thousand and five.

172
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 1: Where I really started to enjoy them was with Skull

173
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 1: Island in twenty seventeen and then now where we have

174
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: Godzilla and King Kong fighting each other. But I just

175
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 1: think solo King Kong movies should probably be dead. I

176
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:53,720
Speaker 1: don't know how much we have left in the tank.

177
00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: Between the plot lines between Godzilla and King Kong teaming

178
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 1: up and fighting each other, those movies feel so one dimensional.

179
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 1: So I say we have to kill King Kong.

180
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:06,440
Speaker 2: And very much alive?

181
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,000
Speaker 1: Is Spider Man with ten movies didn't get its first

182
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,199
Speaker 1: movie until two thousand and two. Spider Man Brand New

183
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 1: Day is coming out next year in twenty twenty six

184
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 1: in the summer. What happens after that? Because it is

185
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,079
Speaker 1: very much alive right now, it'll continue to be alive

186
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 1: with the animated Miles Morales movies. But I don't know

187
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 1: in my lifetime do I want to see somebody else

188
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,880
Speaker 1: play Spider Man. We've had three now will it continue?

189
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 1: After Spider Man hangs up the Spidy suit and says,

190
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,559
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna play this character anymore, what do they do?

191
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 2: I think you got to make.

192
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 1: Them darker, more street level crime in the same vein

193
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:47,319
Speaker 1: of the Punisher, which the Punisher is going to be

194
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,760
Speaker 1: in Brand New Day, And I think that is something

195
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 1: we all have a taste for right now, especially with

196
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 1: Daredevil on Disney Plus and Punisher being a part of

197
00:09:55,200 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 1: that storyline Kingpinn being a violent force. I would love

198
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:04,240
Speaker 1: to see those two worlds merge in the tone of Daredevil,

199
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,439
Speaker 1: just a lot of straight ahead fighting and web slinging,

200
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: butt sweat and tears. I think that is where Spider

201
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,960
Speaker 1: Man needs to go back to, so very much alive

202
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 1: right now, But I think the next iteration of Spider

203
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,440
Speaker 1: Man has to do what the Batman is doing and

204
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 1: make it really dark, which I think is going to

205
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,080
Speaker 1: be hard because Spider Man has so many young fans

206
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:26,480
Speaker 1: who do enjoy the big, bright and colorful and not

207
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 1: too intense fighting. But I think that is where that

208
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,560
Speaker 1: character has to go in order to make sense to

209
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 1: revive it again, because then you get people so angry

210
00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:39,560
Speaker 1: about yet another iteration of Spider Man. But that is

211
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,680
Speaker 1: number eight on the list, with ten movies in each

212
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 1: of those franchises. At number seven, we have a three

213
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 1: way tie Harry Potter, Saw and Fast and the Furious.

214
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 1: The problem with two of these franchises is that the

215
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:57,200
Speaker 1: final movie does not have an official release date yet.

216
00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,240
Speaker 1: They're not canceled, but you still have to count them

217
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 1: here because they are confirmed. They're supposed to come out soon,

218
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 1: but Saw eleven does not have a release date yet,

219
00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 1: and The Fast and the Furious is supposed to have

220
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 1: its final movie, but there's so much weirdness around that

221
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 1: movie even being released, where Vin Diesel is saying one thing,

222
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: the studio is saying another that they're not paying certain actors.

223
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 2: So that movie seems.

224
00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 1: Like it is in some development hell right now and

225
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:29,600
Speaker 1: just is having trouble seeing the light of day, which

226
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 1: I think is interesting because the way they pitched Fast

227
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 1: in the Furious ten and eleven was that one was

228
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 1: going to come out and then the other was going

229
00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:40,040
Speaker 1: to come out pretty soon behind it. But as we learned,

230
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,360
Speaker 1: they lied to us and the other movie was not

231
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,920
Speaker 1: ready to go. It's getting too expensive. There's a lot

232
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,679
Speaker 1: of creative differences. I think we need to go ahead

233
00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 1: and finish out that franchise. It is on the cusp

234
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 1: of being dead. I think The Fast and the Furious

235
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:59,200
Speaker 1: movies probably peaked around Tokyo Drift way back then. Probably

236
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:03,840
Speaker 1: around seven was where it met that still being financially

237
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:05,839
Speaker 1: successful but also still.

238
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 2: Having some integrity to it.

239
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,640
Speaker 1: After seven, they were still making money, which is why

240
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 1: they continue to make these movies, But they went so

241
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,760
Speaker 1: far off the rails that between eight, nine and ten

242
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 1: you can't really tell the difference between those. So Fast

243
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 1: and the Furious is a great example of quantity over quality,

244
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:29,360
Speaker 1: where if you really want the quality films of that franchise,

245
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 1: you got to look at the first three, maybe the

246
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 1: first four, but after that you are really just getting

247
00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:38,679
Speaker 1: quantity With the Saw movies, They're all pretty solid. The

248
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 1: entire format of Saw starts to become a little bit repetitive.

249
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 1: But when I saw Saw ten in theaters, I was

250
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 1: still highly entertained because even though it is the same

251
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 1: thing over and over again, they are inventive in the

252
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: ways that they take out some of these people, so

253
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:57,960
Speaker 1: that keeps it interesting. So I think that franchise is

254
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 1: still alive for now. It's still has that beating heart,

255
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:08,200
Speaker 1: and I will still go watch a Saw eleven in theaters.

256
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 1: When it comes to Harry Potter, though, I think those

257
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 1: movies are dead because we are getting the TV show

258
00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:22,240
Speaker 1: that is coming out in twenty twenty seven on HBO Max,

259
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 1: and that is going to be a new adaptation of

260
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,320
Speaker 1: all the books. It's going to be more fleshed out.

261
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:31,080
Speaker 1: You can't make that series and still have any of

262
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 1: the Harry Potter movies make sense or really gain any interest.

263
00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 1: I mean, they'd still gain interest because it is Harry Potter,

264
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:39,720
Speaker 1: but I think that is where they are shifting their focus.

265
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 1: I think that is a franchise that also in that

266
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 1: eleven movies count all the Fantastic Beast movies. But because

267
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 1: they really transcend pop culture, they almost feel so significant

268
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:55,560
Speaker 1: that you can't alter those movies whatsoever. You can't remake them.

269
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 1: You can really only do what they did and turn

270
00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 1: it into the TV show, but you can't really expand

271
00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,120
Speaker 1: on that because you don't have the source material. And

272
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 1: that is okay, because we don't need to tarnish the reputation.

273
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 2: Of all of those movies. They can live forever.

274
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 1: They will always hold up, even though maybe if you

275
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 1: look back at the first Harry Potter movie, you're like, man,

276
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:16,280
Speaker 1: how do we not think that was completely fake? The

277
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 1: CGI isn't as good as it is now. But I

278
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 1: still think there is so much charm and whimsical, magical

279
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 1: energy to those movies that they will never need to

280
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,520
Speaker 1: be replicated. At number six with twelve movies each we

281
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 1: have a two way tie between Friday the Thirteenth and

282
00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:37,480
Speaker 1: Star Wars. Star Wars is very much alive. We have

283
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 1: the new Mandalorian and Grogu movie coming out on May

284
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 1: twenty second, twenty twenty six. Then there's another Star Wars

285
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 1: movie coming out on December eighteenth, twenty twenty six. And

286
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 1: then you have the Ryan Gosling led Starfighter movie which

287
00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 1: is coming out on May twenty eighth, twenty twenty seven.

288
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 1: So Star Wars is very much alive. Unlike what I

289
00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 1: was just talking about with Harry Potter, there are so

290
00:14:59,680 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 1: many different ways you can go with Star Wars. That

291
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 1: is just going to exist forever. It is that big

292
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 1: of a franchise, that well known across the world. Friday

293
00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 1: the thirteenth, on the other hand, it's been a while

294
00:15:11,800 --> 00:15:14,920
Speaker 1: since we've had a Friday the Thirteenth movie, last rebooted

295
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,840
Speaker 1: back in two thousand and nine. The first Friday the

296
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 1: Thirteenth movie came out back in nineteen eighty, with Part

297
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 1: two and Part three coming out in eighty one and

298
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 1: eighty two. They were really a staple of the eighties

299
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 1: and then just became again more formulaic. Jason was never

300
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 1: my go to horror hero. But if you look around

301
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: at all of the major characters in horror and the

302
00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 1: fact that he hasn't been around in a movie since

303
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 1: two thousand and nine, I think it would be time

304
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:49,479
Speaker 1: now if there ever was one to revive Friday the thirteenth,

305
00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 1: bring them back to life, because I think we are

306
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:59,160
Speaker 1: in a place now where there is a director out

307
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 1: there who who grew up with those movies in the eighties.

308
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 1: That is the perfect age now to bring back what

309
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 1: made those first movies great, but just have overall better storytelling.

310
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 1: Because of all the major horror icons, I feel like

311
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 1: he is the one who has the weakest story. I

312
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 1: think if they found a way to really flesh out

313
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 1: his story make us more emotionally invested in him Jason

314
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 1: Vorhees as a person, I think there is some really

315
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:33,480
Speaker 1: interesting avenues you could go down in that franchise where

316
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 1: maybe out of all the horror icons, I could find

317
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,760
Speaker 1: myself rooting for him the most to kill people, just

318
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:44,240
Speaker 1: because I think he is the most misunderstood, the most mysterious. Obviously,

319
00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:46,680
Speaker 1: it is hard when you have a character who does

320
00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 1: not speak, but I think even the Halloween franchise has

321
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 1: given us a better look at Michael Myers as some

322
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 1: kind of an I don't want to say, a person,

323
00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,880
Speaker 1: but entity that has a little bit of.

324
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:00,160
Speaker 2: Dimension to them.

325
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 1: If they could do that same thing with Friday the thirteenth,

326
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,640
Speaker 1: I think it could be time for a pretty decent revival.

327
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:09,359
Speaker 1: At this point at number five, all tied with thirteen

328
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:13,160
Speaker 1: movies each, we have X Men star Trek what we

329
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:18,120
Speaker 1: were just talking about Halloween, all with thirteen movies. There

330
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 1: is an X Men movie with a reported release date

331
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 1: of May fifth, twenty twenty eight. This is supposed to

332
00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 1: be a new phase for the MCU. It's going to

333
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 1: be directed by the same guy who did the Thunderbolts movie,

334
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:34,439
Speaker 1: going to introduce an entirely new generation of Mutants and

335
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,879
Speaker 1: be the conclusion of the current saga. So this is

336
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 1: going to be post Secret Wars, which is coming out

337
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: in December twenty twenty seven.

338
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,440
Speaker 2: I am so excited for.

339
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 1: An X Men movie, and I think X Men ninety

340
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:49,640
Speaker 1: seven on Disney Plus is what made me realize how

341
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 1: great these characters are. And because there are thirteen movies

342
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 1: in the franchise, I think I got lost somewhere in

343
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,160
Speaker 1: there in the twenty tens, with first Class. Even though

344
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 1: Days of Future pass in twenty fourteen and is a

345
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:03,640
Speaker 1: great movie, I think it was a little bit too

346
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,920
Speaker 1: much with Apocalypse and Dark Phoenix, and then you also

347
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,600
Speaker 1: throw the dead Pole movies in there, Dead Poll ind Wolverine.

348
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 1: There's just been a high volume of X Men movies,

349
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:16,440
Speaker 1: and I get it. They are great characters, they translate

350
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,959
Speaker 1: magnificently on the big screen. But I think we need

351
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 1: to go back to the basics what made those movies

352
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 1: from the two thousands so great. I also, by watching

353
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 1: X Men ninety seven, I forgot how great of a

354
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 1: leader that Cyclops is because Hugh Jackman as Wolverine really

355
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 1: stole the show, where you kind of forget that Cyclops

356
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 1: is the leader.

357
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 2: He should be the main guy.

358
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 1: I think that is where this revival of X Men

359
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:46,119
Speaker 1: needs to focus moron and I mean to call him

360
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:50,439
Speaker 1: a moron, but focus on more because Cyclops in X

361
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 1: Men ninety seven is so sophisticated, He is so well rounded.

362
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 1: He has all of these things that he is struggling

363
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:01,440
Speaker 1: with internally, with having a kid, all these things that

364
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:05,399
Speaker 1: make him the most human mutant. He also has a

365
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 1: fantastic power and one of the top suits in Superheroes

366
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:12,879
Speaker 1: out of DC and Marvel combined together that blue and

367
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:16,760
Speaker 1: yellow would look so good and a comic book accurate

368
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 1: version on the big screen. We finally got Wolverine in

369
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,440
Speaker 1: a comic book accurate movie in Dead Pull and Wolverine.

370
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 1: Let's do it again with Cyclops. Star Trek, I think

371
00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 1: is dead. I was never too interested in all the

372
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:33,679
Speaker 1: Star Trek movies because I think as a nerd you

373
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,959
Speaker 1: kind of have to declare your nerd fandom of what

374
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 1: kind of nerd you're going to be Are you gonna

375
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,119
Speaker 1: be Star Trek or are you're gonna be Star Wars,

376
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:46,399
Speaker 1: And whenever that choice came before me, I went Star

377
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 1: Wars all day, every day, and I know the show

378
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,399
Speaker 1: was huge in the nineties. I have friends that would

379
00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:57,439
Speaker 1: die for Star Trek. For me, my generation's introduction to

380
00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,400
Speaker 1: them was in two thousand and nine with the Star

381
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 1: Trek movie. We also had Star Trek Into the Darkness

382
00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:05,960
Speaker 1: in twenty thirteen, Star Trek Beyond in twenty sixteen. I

383
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 1: just never really got into that franchise. Therefore, if they

384
00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:12,920
Speaker 1: never made another Star Trek movie, I would be fine.

385
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,240
Speaker 1: And then we have Halloween also with thirteen movies. I

386
00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 1: just can't bring myself to revive it. I know I

387
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,800
Speaker 1: have that left here to work through. But with Halloween

388
00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 1: Ends in twenty twenty two, I was so bored by

389
00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 1: that movie and so let down after it started so

390
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 1: strong in twenty eighteen when they vibe, it's just made

391
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:33,760
Speaker 1: revive so much and how many more times can we

392
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:38,359
Speaker 1: do Michael Myers chasing after people with a knife? And

393
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:40,480
Speaker 1: I know they have a video game coming out soon,

394
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:44,640
Speaker 1: and it feels like they would just maybe make one

395
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 1: more with Jamie Lee.

396
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:47,120
Speaker 2: Curtis while she's still with us.

397
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 1: Not that she's sick or dying or anything, but I

398
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:53,200
Speaker 1: think even she is a little bit past this franchise

399
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,719
Speaker 1: at this point. But I think it is such a

400
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:59,800
Speaker 1: big property that they're always gonna go back to this well,

401
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 1: but with the last movie coming out in twenty twenty two,

402
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,880
Speaker 1: I really couldn't see them doing anything with this franchise.

403
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 2: It would be too early.

404
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 1: Even if they did it in twenty twenty nine, towards

405
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:15,240
Speaker 1: the end of the decade, so maybe twenty thirty, but

406
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:18,400
Speaker 1: at that point, I just don't think there is anything

407
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,320
Speaker 1: there that they have not already done. So I have

408
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 1: two deads here at number four, there's only one franchise

409
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:28,359
Speaker 1: with fourteen movies, and that is Superman. I will say

410
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,879
Speaker 1: it is very much alive that Superman hard is beating,

411
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:37,639
Speaker 1: maybe louder than it has in a very long time.

412
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 1: And I know there are a lot of people who

413
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,879
Speaker 1: are Zack Snyder fans and are not a fan of

414
00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:45,399
Speaker 1: the James Gun version, But I think now is the

415
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 1: best time to be a Superman fan because there's a

416
00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 1: lot of good stuff coming. We have Man of Tomorrow

417
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 1: coming out in twenty twenty seven. Before that, we're gonna

418
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 1: get Supergirl in twenty twenty six, and I think the

419
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:00,760
Speaker 1: way all of these movies are going going to tie

420
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 1: into the DC universe is just gonna be more exciting.

421
00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:08,640
Speaker 1: And I think it's probably going to rival Marvel and

422
00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 1: become the next go to superhero franchise because I just

423
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 1: don't think Marvel is going to have a comparable character.

424
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,640
Speaker 1: We do have Spider Man, but again, next year we're

425
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:24,160
Speaker 1: getting the final film that we're gonna get with Tom

426
00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,120
Speaker 1: holland where do you go from there?

427
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:27,600
Speaker 2: In Marvel You're.

428
00:22:27,480 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 1: Gonna have the Avengers movies, obviously, but outside of that,

429
00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:34,080
Speaker 1: what keeps the fire going. I don't think any of

430
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,800
Speaker 1: those characters are strong enough now that Robert Downey Junior

431
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,879
Speaker 1: is gonna be Doctor Doom, Chris Evans is moving on,

432
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 1: He's not gonna be Captain America anymore. Even if they

433
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 1: made another Thor movie with Chris Hemsworth. I think Love

434
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,680
Speaker 1: and Thunder left a bad taste in so many people's

435
00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,920
Speaker 1: mouths that it would just not have that same impact

436
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,720
Speaker 1: unless they were able and this will never happen. But

437
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 1: then finally get the incredible Hulk, right, I just as

438
00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 1: much as I love that character, I don't think he's

439
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 1: ever going to see that box office success that I

440
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 1: want him to. And I'm not going to count teams,

441
00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:07,879
Speaker 1: so I won't count X men that we were just

442
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:13,439
Speaker 1: talking about. I just think singular superhero characters. Superman is

443
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:17,560
Speaker 1: going to be king. So Superman, with fourteen movies and counting,

444
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 1: is very much alive. At number three is Batman, with

445
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:26,440
Speaker 1: the total of twenty movies in the franchise, also very

446
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:29,640
Speaker 1: much alive, because the next Batman movie is coming out

447
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty seven October.

448
00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:33,040
Speaker 2: First wishaw Man.

449
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 1: Twenty twenty five was supposed to be the year that

450
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:38,680
Speaker 1: we got The Batman two. This movie has been delayed

451
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 1: so much, which if you look back at the start

452
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:44,200
Speaker 1: of the franchise, it started in nineteen forty three with

453
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 1: the theatrical release of Batman, and then had a follow

454
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:51,080
Speaker 1: up in nineteen forty six with Batman and Robin, and

455
00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: then it wasn't until it was brought back up to

456
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,920
Speaker 1: the big screen with Tim Burton in nineteen eighty nine.

457
00:23:56,320 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 1: But then you got Batman, Returns, Batman Foreverman, The Mask

458
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 1: of the Fantasm, and then you also have a lot

459
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 1: of direct to video animated projects, which I think is

460
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:10,399
Speaker 1: where Batman really thrives, with the Killing Joke, Return of

461
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 1: the kpe Crusaders, Batman Versus Two Face. You also have

462
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,600
Speaker 1: the Lego Batman movies. But I think where it is

463
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:20,160
Speaker 1: best right now is in the hands of Matt Reeves.

464
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 1: So Batman is very much alive. Am I going to

465
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 1: be excited whenever he gets introduced into the new DC

466
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,600
Speaker 1: universe with James Gunn Right now, I don't really want

467
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,399
Speaker 1: it to happen. As much as I love Batman, I

468
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 1: don't think we introduce him until we get The Batman two.

469
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:38,879
Speaker 2: Hold him hostage.

470
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:43,200
Speaker 1: Even though seeing David kornsweat team up with Batman would

471
00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:43,879
Speaker 1: be amazing.

472
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 2: I just don't want to see it yet.

473
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:49,320
Speaker 1: But Batman is very much alive at number two with

474
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 1: twenty seven movies. Is James Bond? The next James Bond

475
00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:57,120
Speaker 1: movie is currently known as Bond twenty six. It's supposed

476
00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 1: to be coming out in twenty twenty eight, even though

477
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 1: they haven't an bounced. Who is going to be the

478
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 1: next James Bond? Is it going to be male? Is

479
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:05,359
Speaker 1: it going to be female?

480
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:05,880
Speaker 2: Who knows?

481
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 1: They haven't said to me, James Bond is dead. I

482
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,159
Speaker 1: don't think it is dead to most people, but James

483
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:14,520
Speaker 1: Bond is dead to me. Franchise started back in nineteen

484
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 1: sixty two, where Sean Connery played James Bond in Doctor No.

485
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 1: He went on to play him more in movies like

486
00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 1: From Russia with Love in nineteen sixty three, Goldfinger in

487
00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:29,040
Speaker 1: sixty four, Thunderball in sixty five, You Only Live Twice

488
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,199
Speaker 1: in nineteen sixty seven, and then he came back in

489
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:36,200
Speaker 1: nineteen seventy one for Diamonds R Forever. First James Bond

490
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:39,679
Speaker 1: movie I ever watched was in nineteen ninety five GoldenEye

491
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:43,200
Speaker 1: with Pierce Brosnan. To me, he is my James Bond,

492
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 1: But I have much more of an affinity for James

493
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:50,160
Speaker 1: Bond's GoldenEye on N sixty four, which I think if

494
00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,800
Speaker 1: you grew up in the nineties or early two thousands,

495
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:56,480
Speaker 1: that is one of your favorite video games of your childhood.

496
00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:59,200
Speaker 1: Some of my fondest memories as a kid, the things

497
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,359
Speaker 1: I wish I could go back and relift, maybe even

498
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 1: just one day, was playing En sixty four for hours

499
00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 1: on end, staying up so late it felt like my

500
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 1: eyes wanted to bleed because.

501
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,080
Speaker 2: I was just like, I gotta keep playing this level.

502
00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:13,480
Speaker 2: I gotta keep playing GoldenEye.

503
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,040
Speaker 1: I gotta make it past this guy, I gotta kill

504
00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:19,159
Speaker 1: this blurry character, because that was a game that you

505
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,520
Speaker 1: could play and not look at the clock and just

506
00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,199
Speaker 1: get lost in. Even though if you look back on

507
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 1: that first person shooter now, the graphics were terrible compared

508
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:29,840
Speaker 1: to the Call of Duties of today. But I have

509
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 1: such a relationship and love for GoldenEye the video game

510
00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,520
Speaker 1: that it just never really translated to watching them on

511
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:40,359
Speaker 1: the big screen. So unless they decided to go back

512
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:44,120
Speaker 1: and remake GoldenEye to have it feel like a video game,

513
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 1: adaptation like they are doing now with every single property.

514
00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,000
Speaker 1: I don't have that much interest in it. Even though

515
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,720
Speaker 1: I do like Daniel Craig as an actor, I like

516
00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:56,160
Speaker 1: him so much more outside of the Bond franchise than

517
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 1: I ever liked him inside of it. So to me,

518
00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:00,880
Speaker 1: I feel like it's a little bit because I don't

519
00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,679
Speaker 1: care who is going to play James Bond. Out of

520
00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 1: all the most coveted roles in cinema, I think that

521
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 1: is up there, obviously with having twenty seven movies as

522
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,120
Speaker 1: a top role of any.

523
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 2: Actor to get.

524
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 1: I think if you look at roles like James Bond

525
00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 1: and Batman and the Joker, those are all things that

526
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:21,880
Speaker 1: once you play or Superman as well, those are all

527
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 1: roles that once you play them, your name gets written

528
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 1: into the history books and you will always be known

529
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 1: as the person who played an iconic character. But James

530
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:33,959
Speaker 1: Bond just ranks so low on my list when it

531
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 1: comes to all those other roles. But at number two

532
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:40,199
Speaker 1: with twenty seven movies in the franchise is James Bond.

533
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 1: At number one, the movie franchise with the most movies,

534
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 1: not even American, although it's kind of American. It is

535
00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 1: now bled into America, but with thirty eight movies, the

536
00:27:53,920 --> 00:28:03,000
Speaker 1: one the only Godzilla, and Godzilla is very much alive.

537
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:06,160
Speaker 1: I did not realize how big of a Godzilla fan

538
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:10,560
Speaker 1: I've been my entire life until twenty twenty threes. Godzilla

539
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:12,720
Speaker 1: Minus one came out and I went to go see

540
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:16,360
Speaker 1: this movie on opening weekend before there was any hype,

541
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,360
Speaker 1: because I just remember seeing not even the trailer for it,

542
00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 1: just the poster, and I was like, Godzilla minus one,

543
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,320
Speaker 1: that is right up my alley. One of the first

544
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:26,840
Speaker 1: movies I remember being so excited to see as a

545
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:31,720
Speaker 1: kid was Godzilla back in nineteen ninety eight, because I

546
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,680
Speaker 1: think my mom had just started working at Taco Bell

547
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 1: and they did this incredible promotion between Taco Bell and

548
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 1: Godzilla where they had this amazing cup where Godzilla was

549
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,480
Speaker 1: wrapped around the cup and they had toys. And that

550
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 1: was the time where I was still getting kids meals,

551
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 1: so my mom would bring me home the cups, bring

552
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:51,479
Speaker 1: me home the toys, and that made me love that movie.

553
00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 1: My love for Godzilla grew even more in the twenty

554
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:58,560
Speaker 1: tens with the more American versions. In twenty fourteen, and

555
00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 1: then we had Godzilla, King of Monsters in twenty nineteen,

556
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 1: and obviously all the verses movies that we were talking

557
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:07,959
Speaker 1: about earlier, but even shin Godzilla in twenty sixteen. And

558
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 1: it wasn't until Godzilla Minus one came out that I

559
00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,480
Speaker 1: realized how much this character had been a part of

560
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 1: my life growing up, because I was so much like

561
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,560
Speaker 1: every other kid growing up, infatuated when dinosaurs as a kid,

562
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:24,320
Speaker 1: and Godzilla was just like the go to dinosaur if

563
00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:27,960
Speaker 1: it wasn't Godzilla. I loved Reptar growing up. Jurassic Park

564
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:32,640
Speaker 1: always loved me some dinosaurs. But thirty eight movies split

565
00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 1: into all different eras, different studios, different countries, But they

566
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 1: did announce they're going to make a sequel to Godzilla

567
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:45,680
Speaker 1: minus one called Godzilla minus zero, but it's also written

568
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 1: as Godzilla minus zero.

569
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 2: Point zero zero point zero.

570
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 1: The twenty twenty three movie brought a true artistic vision

571
00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:59,320
Speaker 1: to a character that has been around since nineteen fifty

572
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 1: four with movies like Godzilla, Son of Godzilla in sixty

573
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:06,360
Speaker 1: seven and all these classic monster movies. But Godzilla Minus

574
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,920
Speaker 1: one went on to make over one hundred and thirteen

575
00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:12,800
Speaker 1: million dollars worldwide, also became the first movie in the

576
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 1: franchise in its seventy year history to win an oscar,

577
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:20,720
Speaker 1: taking home the Academy Award for Best Visual Effects. It

578
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 1: also became the highest grossing live action Japanese movie ever

579
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:29,720
Speaker 1: at the North American box office, so it proved that

580
00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:33,200
Speaker 1: there is a demand for this character when done with

581
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:37,480
Speaker 1: an artistic vision. Also made for a relatively low budget

582
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 1: for how great and big that movie looked. So one

583
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 1: of my most anticipated sequels has to be Godzilla minus zero.

584
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 1: It is number one on the list with thirty eight

585
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:58,080
Speaker 1: movies in the franchise and counting. Long live Godzilla. Let's

586
00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:00,120
Speaker 1: get into It now a spoiler free movie review a

587
00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,960
Speaker 1: Predator bad Lands where the hunter now becomes the hunted.

588
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 1: This is an interesting time for me to really be

589
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 1: getting into the Predator movies because it's from director Dan Trachenberg,

590
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:14,400
Speaker 1: who earlier this year also co directed Predator Killer of Killers,

591
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 1: which was the animated movie on.

592
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 2: Hulu that one I just kind of watched on a whim.

593
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 1: I've never been huge into the Predator or alien movies,

594
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:25,160
Speaker 1: and I was like, this is actually really good. There

595
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:28,080
Speaker 1: was a lot of emotional depth that I wasn't expecting,

596
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:30,560
Speaker 1: some really great action and I was like, all right,

597
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 1: I want to see what this live action one is

598
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:35,440
Speaker 1: all about, because it kind of changes what we know

599
00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:38,480
Speaker 1: about the Predator character because he has often been the

600
00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 1: bad guy, the one hunting down other people, but here

601
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 1: he is now the one you are rooting for. He

602
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:48,280
Speaker 1: is now the protagonist because what you have in Predator

603
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:51,600
Speaker 1: bad Lands is a predator named Deck who is the

604
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,640
Speaker 1: runt of his klan. He is cast out at the

605
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 1: beginning of the movie, goes through something really traumatic. He

606
00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: is now on a hostile planet where everything, no matter

607
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:04,000
Speaker 1: where you turn, is trying to kill you. But he

608
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,240
Speaker 1: is there to kill this creature known as the Callusk,

609
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:11,640
Speaker 1: who is this giant creature that can regenerate himself, probably ten,

610
00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 1: maybe fifteen, even twenty times bigger than Deck is, and

611
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:18,240
Speaker 1: he wants to kill that creature, take its skull back

612
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 1: to his klan, back to his planet, to prove to

613
00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:22,760
Speaker 1: his family that he's not the runt, that he can

614
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 1: take on the biggest task. And that is what he

615
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:27,240
Speaker 1: is trying to do. But he's gonna need some help

616
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,280
Speaker 1: to get there, because who he encounters first is el

617
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:34,240
Speaker 1: Fannings character, who is this android robot that has been

618
00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:37,400
Speaker 1: split in half automatically. You get a great visual there

619
00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:40,840
Speaker 1: where it's Deck teaming up with el Fannings character literally

620
00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 1: carrying her on his back. It is this fantastic kind

621
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:47,360
Speaker 1: of banjo kazui type relationship.

622
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:48,440
Speaker 2: That was really heartwarming.

623
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 1: And that is what you have in this movie that

624
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:54,840
Speaker 1: I wasn't really expecting is all these unlikely characters coming

625
00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 1: together to take on the big bad and you discover

626
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:01,160
Speaker 1: different villains along the way. What I found the most

627
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 1: entertaining about this movie is it does not waste any time.

628
00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:07,120
Speaker 1: The movie is right under one hour and forty minutes

629
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,560
Speaker 1: and you get dropped into this world that does take

630
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 1: a little bit of getting used to because they do

631
00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 1: speak this entirely different language. It is almost like a

632
00:33:14,840 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 1: foreign language film because they speak yaukcha, I think is

633
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 1: how you pronounce it, which was this language developed for

634
00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:24,640
Speaker 1: this movie. Written Watkins is a linguist who developed this

635
00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 1: full language for this movie, all the grammar, all the

636
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,880
Speaker 1: vocabulary for the first time in this franchise. He was

637
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 1: recommended by the same guy who created the Navi language

638
00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 1: for the Avatar movies and Demetria Schuster, who plays Deck

639
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 1: in the movie The Predator, had to learn this entire

640
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:42,960
Speaker 1: language for this film. So not only did he have

641
00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 1: to do all of the obstacles and physical stunts that

642
00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:49,240
Speaker 1: Deck has to do throughout this movie, he also learned

643
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 1: an entirely new language to play this character. It's already

644
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 1: hard enough for an actor to learn all your lines,

645
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:58,120
Speaker 1: but having to learn an entirely different language that on

646
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 1: top of the physicality of this role, and also the

647
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:04,240
Speaker 1: fact that there are not many human characters at all

648
00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:05,080
Speaker 1: in this movie.

649
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:07,360
Speaker 2: So that is really the only hurdle you have.

650
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:09,760
Speaker 1: To get over at the beginning of this movie where

651
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:12,200
Speaker 1: you are doing a lot of reading. From start to finish,

652
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 1: you will do a lot of reading, and you don't

653
00:34:15,200 --> 00:34:17,919
Speaker 1: really pick up on anything. Because sometimes when I watch

654
00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:21,440
Speaker 1: maybe movies from South Korea or Japan or Germany or

655
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:24,040
Speaker 1: some other country where I don't know the language, I

656
00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,160
Speaker 1: kind of start to pick up on it a little bit.

657
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:29,839
Speaker 1: And I always watch a foreign language film with subtitles

658
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:32,680
Speaker 1: because I want to hear the original dialect and feel

659
00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:35,319
Speaker 1: that emotion. That's a little bit harder to do in

660
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,160
Speaker 1: this movie. So it is a lot of reading and interpreting.

661
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:40,799
Speaker 1: But after a while, after the first twenty minutes, you

662
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,759
Speaker 1: kind of start to get used to it, and once

663
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:46,440
Speaker 1: el Fanning's character is introduced and she is the one

664
00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 1: speaking English, you're like, Okay, that is the character who

665
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,560
Speaker 1: represents all of us. Since she is a robot, she

666
00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:54,680
Speaker 1: is able to change what Deck is hearing, so she

667
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:56,840
Speaker 1: can speak in English, but to him it sounds like

668
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:59,800
Speaker 1: his predator language. So they were very clear about it

669
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,200
Speaker 1: explaining that, because I know, sometimes movies just kind of

670
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,560
Speaker 1: start talking English and you're like, why in the world

671
00:35:05,560 --> 00:35:08,680
Speaker 1: would he know English? But they do explain that, maybe

672
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:11,239
Speaker 1: even over explain it, but I'm kind of glad they

673
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:14,200
Speaker 1: did address that. But once you get through the language barrier,

674
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:17,680
Speaker 1: you really start to appreciate how much action is in

675
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:21,760
Speaker 1: this movie where Deck is fighting one battle after another,

676
00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:25,200
Speaker 1: to quote another recent movie title, because once he is

677
00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:30,240
Speaker 1: on this planet, literally everything there is trying to kill him.

678
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:34,200
Speaker 1: From the moment he steps foot on that planet. Immediately

679
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,360
Speaker 1: there are things everywhere trying to kill him. From the trees,

680
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 1: from the bugs, from the grass, from everything he encounters.

681
00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:44,360
Speaker 1: It is all designed to kill whoever steps foot.

682
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:44,800
Speaker 2: On this planet.

683
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:48,200
Speaker 1: And he quickly learns how many people have failed in

684
00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:51,239
Speaker 1: this mission that he is set out to so it

685
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:53,800
Speaker 1: is hard for him to accept help. But that is

686
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 1: kind of the overall message of this movie. Much like

687
00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:00,360
Speaker 1: a suicide squad or a Guardians of the Galaxy is

688
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:04,120
Speaker 1: taking a group of unlikely heroes forcing them to work together.

689
00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,560
Speaker 1: But that is kind of the beauty of it, finding

690
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:09,160
Speaker 1: that beauty where it's not supposed to be, finding a

691
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:12,279
Speaker 1: family where you don't expect to find that family. The

692
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:15,360
Speaker 1: visuals were amazing. My only regret was not seeing this

693
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:18,680
Speaker 1: movie in imax. I had the action, and at the

694
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:20,920
Speaker 1: core of that was the emotion of this movie was

695
00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:24,319
Speaker 1: the thing I was probably the most surprised by where

696
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:27,520
Speaker 1: I started to feel for all of these characters as

697
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,839
Speaker 1: I learned all of their history, all of their traumas.

698
00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 2: Where if it were just a straight ahead action.

699
00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 1: Movie and you just had the big sequences, the big explosions,

700
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,839
Speaker 1: all the crazy things trying to kill Deck, it would

701
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:43,840
Speaker 1: have been a fine standard movie and I would have

702
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:47,960
Speaker 1: left satisfied. But it was starting to really weigh on

703
00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:50,080
Speaker 1: me emotionally, and by the end of it, I was

704
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:52,880
Speaker 1: just rooting for these characters. I had felt like I

705
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:56,040
Speaker 1: had gone to this planet with them, I took this

706
00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 1: adventure with them. It was much like some of my

707
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:02,520
Speaker 1: favorite road trip and it venture movies, where it was

708
00:37:02,520 --> 00:37:04,720
Speaker 1: pretty clear the mission. They want to go from point

709
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:07,360
Speaker 1: A to point B, they want to take down this villain,

710
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,799
Speaker 1: and they want to go home simple enough. It made

711
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:14,000
Speaker 1: me realize that, man, you can do a big sci

712
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:17,319
Speaker 1: fi movie like this and cut all the boring stuff out,

713
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:21,200
Speaker 1: because my biggest complaint with a lot of the Star

714
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,719
Speaker 1: Wars stuff recently, and I just had a lot of

715
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:26,680
Speaker 1: visions of the last time I watched the Star Wars project,

716
00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,839
Speaker 1: the Alcolyte, where you get introduced to all these new

717
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:31,759
Speaker 1: characters and all this backstory.

718
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:33,719
Speaker 2: There is just so much.

719
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:36,160
Speaker 1: Dialogue in a Star Wars movie where they try to

720
00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:39,719
Speaker 1: explain the origins of all these planets. They get into

721
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:43,319
Speaker 1: twenty minute conversations that mean nothing, and by the end

722
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:44,960
Speaker 1: of it, you're like, Okay, I learned all this stuff,

723
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:48,200
Speaker 1: but that really didn't impact me emotionally. Predator bad Lands

724
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:51,320
Speaker 1: prove to me that you can make a movie about

725
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:54,960
Speaker 1: a planet that cuts all that stuff out and just

726
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:56,359
Speaker 1: leaves the things you need to know.

727
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:58,840
Speaker 2: They didn't overload you with information.

728
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:02,040
Speaker 1: They cut out all the that showed you what you

729
00:38:02,239 --> 00:38:05,400
Speaker 1: wanted to see, what you came here for and then

730
00:38:05,520 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 1: got on with it, and then just did a really

731
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:11,440
Speaker 1: good job at driving home the emotion more so than

732
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:13,640
Speaker 1: all the war, which I think is what Star Wars

733
00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:15,399
Speaker 1: movies are really trying to build right now, is create

734
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 1: all these worlds and just essentially give you a history

735
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:20,759
Speaker 1: lesson where it feels like you need to be taking

736
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:21,880
Speaker 1: notes the entire time.

737
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:23,960
Speaker 2: But this was just a highly.

738
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:27,880
Speaker 1: Entertaining movie that even if you knew nothing, which I

739
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:30,719
Speaker 1: am not that familiar with the Predator world, even if

740
00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:33,920
Speaker 1: you knew nothing, you could hop right into this movie.

741
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:35,399
Speaker 2: And understand it.

742
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:37,680
Speaker 1: It would be like jumping into a really cold lake

743
00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 1: and you'd have to warm your body up a little bit.

744
00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:42,640
Speaker 1: But once you get through that, you have all the

745
00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:45,040
Speaker 1: facts you need to know, You have all the tools

746
00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:47,520
Speaker 1: you need to go on this journey, and it's just

747
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:50,759
Speaker 1: a really good time. To me, it felt like one

748
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,840
Speaker 1: of the best hero origin stories we've had in the

749
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:57,560
Speaker 1: last five years, comparing any superhero, comparing anything in the

750
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:01,520
Speaker 1: sci fi world where you have this this unlikely hero

751
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:04,320
Speaker 1: who goes from zero to hero.

752
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:05,759
Speaker 2: In any hero.

753
00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:09,000
Speaker 1: Origin story or any superhero movie, the moment where your

754
00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:13,160
Speaker 1: hero pulls himself up and shows you what it takes

755
00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:16,239
Speaker 1: to be a hero, where you, as the viewer, get

756
00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:19,800
Speaker 1: excited because you've seen him hit the lowest of lows,

757
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:21,880
Speaker 1: come to a point where you don't think they can

758
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,560
Speaker 1: pick themselves back up again, where they're not going to

759
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:27,680
Speaker 1: be able to complete their mission, and then rise to

760
00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:31,120
Speaker 1: the occasion. There was a moment in Predator bad Lands

761
00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:32,919
Speaker 1: where I wanted to get up from my seat because

762
00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:36,759
Speaker 1: I felt so inspired and also knowing that they gave

763
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,760
Speaker 1: us everything. They didn't leave any cards on the table

764
00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:43,120
Speaker 1: when it came to this, but also are building up

765
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:46,320
Speaker 1: to sequels that I'm actually interested in, so I also

766
00:39:46,400 --> 00:39:49,000
Speaker 1: know that the best is still yet to come in

767
00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:52,160
Speaker 1: this franchise. I think the sequel could be even better

768
00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,680
Speaker 1: than the first one, which is something that rarely happens

769
00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,600
Speaker 1: in a franchise like this, because now that I know

770
00:39:57,719 --> 00:40:01,000
Speaker 1: these characters so well, I'm ready to go on this journey.

771
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:03,520
Speaker 1: And in the next movie, we don't need to build

772
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:06,960
Speaker 1: that out anymore. We can test their relationships push them

773
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:09,759
Speaker 1: even further. This movie teaches you what it takes to

774
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:12,240
Speaker 1: be great and how you can prove some people wrong.

775
00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:15,000
Speaker 1: So for Predator bad Lands, I give it a strong

776
00:40:15,160 --> 00:40:22,360
Speaker 1: four out of five Hunters.

777
00:40:20,560 --> 00:40:24,200
Speaker 2: It's time to head down to movie Mike Trey, Lar Paul,

778
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:27,200
Speaker 2: Are we really doing this again?

779
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:32,360
Speaker 1: Stream seven coming out next year February twenty seven to

780
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:33,440
Speaker 1: twenty twenty six.

781
00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:38,480
Speaker 2: Nev Campbell is back. Even though she was in five.

782
00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:41,200
Speaker 1: People are making such a big deal about her being

783
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:42,040
Speaker 1: back in seven.

784
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 2: She already made her return, but she dipped out of

785
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:48,800
Speaker 2: six because she thought she wasn't.

786
00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:52,240
Speaker 1: Getting paid enough. How dare they not pay Nev Campbell

787
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:54,880
Speaker 1: what she is worth? She is what is keeping this

788
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:57,759
Speaker 1: franchise alive now that Jenna Wortega is no longer a

789
00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:59,560
Speaker 1: part of it and Melissa Barrera.

790
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:01,920
Speaker 2: They brought new blood back.

791
00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:04,920
Speaker 1: Into this franchise, and now this just feels like kicking

792
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:06,800
Speaker 1: the dead horse or doing whatever you want with the

793
00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:08,920
Speaker 1: dead don't do everything you want with the dead horse.

794
00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,120
Speaker 1: But it just feels like a franchise that is trying

795
00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:16,360
Speaker 1: to squeeze every single penny, every little ounce of blood.

796
00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 2: We're gonna read your nigga, We're gonna make another screen movie.

797
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:24,600
Speaker 1: Bacon on the Nostalgia and scream was so revolutionary back

798
00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:28,000
Speaker 1: in the nineties because it brought a genre back from

799
00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:30,880
Speaker 1: the dead. The slasher genre that it had become so

800
00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:33,600
Speaker 1: stale by the eighties. It was just like, oh, another

801
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:36,440
Speaker 1: slasher movie. But they did it by making it cool

802
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 1: in nineties and making it more meta, placing in all

803
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:43,480
Speaker 1: these rules on how to survive a horror movie.

804
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:45,040
Speaker 2: You said, Wes Craven.

805
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:49,320
Speaker 1: Behind the camera, one of the true horror icon visionaries rip.

806
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,600
Speaker 1: But now here we are in this trailer, it is

807
00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:55,280
Speaker 1: essentially doing the same thing they did back in twenty

808
00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:58,399
Speaker 1: twenty two, and now they're like Nev Campbell is back,

809
00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:01,440
Speaker 1: Matthew Lillard is coming back. They're also kind of spoiling

810
00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:04,080
Speaker 1: their own movie by telling you everybody who is going

811
00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:06,960
Speaker 1: to be in this but now ghost Face looks a

812
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,080
Speaker 1: little bit more intense, which they did this already do.

813
00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:13,000
Speaker 1: That is what had me excited about Scream five is

814
00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:13,800
Speaker 1: in that trailer.

815
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:15,360
Speaker 2: When I first saw it before going.

816
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,480
Speaker 1: To see the movie, I was like, Oh, ghost Face

817
00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:20,440
Speaker 1: looks a little bit more menacing. His mask is a

818
00:42:20,440 --> 00:42:23,239
Speaker 1: little bit worn, he looks a little bit more intense,

819
00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:26,919
Speaker 1: and the stake seemed higher, the killing seemed a little

820
00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:30,000
Speaker 1: bit more brutal. So it felt kind of like it

821
00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:33,839
Speaker 1: was reinventing itself. It coined the term the requel, which

822
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,280
Speaker 1: is both a reboot and a sequel, which I loved.

823
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:37,799
Speaker 2: Scream five was good.

824
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:41,759
Speaker 1: Scream six was okay, But now in Scream seven, it

825
00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:46,319
Speaker 1: is the cinematic equivalent of your ex texting you you

826
00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:50,760
Speaker 1: up where I don't want to reply to that text.

827
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:52,879
Speaker 1: Not that I even have an ex, but just using

828
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:56,360
Speaker 1: this comparison, here, this is the franchise telling me you

829
00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:58,839
Speaker 1: still want some of this, You still want to come

830
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:02,120
Speaker 1: watch these movies. I'm like, no, I shouldn't, But then

831
00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:02,760
Speaker 1: I watched.

832
00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:05,040
Speaker 2: This trailer, I'm like, oh man, that part was.

833
00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:08,040
Speaker 1: Kind of cool, but what you have in this movie,

834
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:11,920
Speaker 1: Sidney Prescott has built a whole new life and then

835
00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:15,879
Speaker 1: her darkest spear comes to life as she realized her

836
00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:20,160
Speaker 1: daughter so not her, becomes the next target of ghost Face,

837
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:24,040
Speaker 1: and Sydney in this trailer is so just unbothered by

838
00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:27,160
Speaker 1: ghost Face, doesn't care. She's like, you're just some other

839
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:30,960
Speaker 1: dude behind a voice changer. Come at me, bro, But

840
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:34,839
Speaker 1: whenever ghost Face goes after her daughter, she's like, oh no,

841
00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:37,600
Speaker 1: now I gotta kill you. So before we get into

842
00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:40,920
Speaker 1: more about the Scream seven trailer, which is coming out

843
00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:43,880
Speaker 1: next year, here is just a little bit of the trailer.

844
00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:47,960
Speaker 2: Hello, Hello Sydney, did you miss me?

845
00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:53,160
Speaker 1: Nice little town you found.

846
00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:58,719
Speaker 2: You and your pretty daughter reminds me of where we

847
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:07,520
Speaker 2: grew up. Where is my daughter? I'm gonna burn it

848
00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:18,440
Speaker 2: all down, mother, That's gonna be fun. I'm gonna burn

849
00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:19,160
Speaker 2: it old down.

850
00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:21,200
Speaker 1: That is the scene I was referencing that kind of

851
00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:24,000
Speaker 1: entice me where you see ghost space just before that

852
00:44:24,360 --> 00:44:27,719
Speaker 1: with a big old thing of gas pouring it everywhere,

853
00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:30,120
Speaker 1: and then he is walking out of his house just

854
00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:32,719
Speaker 1: completely engulfed in flames like.

855
00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:34,160
Speaker 2: A superhero almost.

856
00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:37,879
Speaker 1: And that scene alone had me thinking, Okay, maybe I'm

857
00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:40,000
Speaker 1: gonna have to go to the theater one more time

858
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:44,239
Speaker 1: to watch another screen movie, because even though I know

859
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:47,480
Speaker 1: it's gonna be exactly beat for beat the last two

860
00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:50,400
Speaker 1: movies that they did, this also just feels exactly like

861
00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:53,759
Speaker 1: Halloween that came out in twenty eighteen, where you had

862
00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:58,840
Speaker 1: Lorie Strode now trying to keep her relationship with her daughter,

863
00:44:59,200 --> 00:44:59,960
Speaker 1: but then she has.

864
00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:01,480
Speaker 2: To granddaughter in the mix.

865
00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:04,200
Speaker 1: It's gonna be that movie just now in twenty twenty six.

866
00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:08,640
Speaker 1: But what Scream did back in the nineties was bringing

867
00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:12,000
Speaker 1: the who Done It into a slash movie, which you

868
00:45:12,040 --> 00:45:14,160
Speaker 1: didn't get that. With the Michael Myers movies, you knew

869
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,520
Speaker 1: exactly who the killer was. You didn't get that with

870
00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:19,600
Speaker 1: Friday the Thirteenth, you didn't get that with a Nightmare

871
00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:23,480
Speaker 1: on Elm Street, all those killers were known. But that

872
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:26,120
Speaker 1: is the thing that will make these movies entertaining no

873
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:29,000
Speaker 1: matter what. You just have to figure out who is it,

874
00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:31,719
Speaker 1: who is behind the mask, why are they doing it?

875
00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:34,279
Speaker 1: Is it one person? Is it two people? And I

876
00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:37,840
Speaker 1: think that is what the Scream franchise has that others

877
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:40,120
Speaker 1: do not. I know what you did last summer. Tried

878
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:43,360
Speaker 1: to bring that back earlier this year, but that movie

879
00:45:43,640 --> 00:45:44,520
Speaker 1: was a mess.

880
00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 2: Even though I.

881
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:48,760
Speaker 1: Feel that Scream seven has already revealed who the killer

882
00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,480
Speaker 1: is going to be based upon who they have announced

883
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:54,600
Speaker 1: and even teased at the end of the trailer, Matthew

884
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:57,840
Speaker 1: Lillard is confirmed to be in this movie. And in

885
00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:01,319
Speaker 1: that very last line you hear somebody say this is

886
00:46:01,360 --> 00:46:04,680
Speaker 1: gonna be fun. That sounds exactly like Matthew Lillard.

887
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:08,959
Speaker 2: Listen to that again, That's gonna be fun. That is him.

888
00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:11,080
Speaker 2: Here is him from the other screen movies.

889
00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:17,759
Speaker 1: I'll be right back, same voice, And I have to

890
00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:21,719
Speaker 1: imagine That is what's going to excite people who are

891
00:46:21,800 --> 00:46:25,759
Speaker 1: fans of this franchise, which there are some very passionate

892
00:46:25,880 --> 00:46:29,680
Speaker 1: Scream fans who love the lore of this love all

893
00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:35,359
Speaker 1: the references from Sidney Prescott naming her daughter after one

894
00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:39,640
Speaker 1: of her friends, all the old Killers coming back. Courtney

895
00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:42,640
Speaker 1: Cox is still in this movie. David Arquette isn't in

896
00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:46,239
Speaker 1: these movies, And for the most part, if an old actor.

897
00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:48,879
Speaker 2: Isn't in the news Scream movie.

898
00:46:49,080 --> 00:46:52,040
Speaker 1: It's because well, what else would happens to their character?

899
00:46:52,560 --> 00:46:56,080
Speaker 1: But then again, there are no rules in the screen

900
00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:59,360
Speaker 1: franchise because Matthew Lillard, if you remember what happened to

901
00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:02,120
Speaker 1: him in the first movie, they can make anything up.

902
00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:05,520
Speaker 1: They can bring anybody back, so there are really no

903
00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:08,680
Speaker 1: rules that they have to follow. The only real rule

904
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:10,879
Speaker 1: they have to follow is can they pay them enough

905
00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,719
Speaker 1: money to get them in this movie. Joe McHale does

906
00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:17,040
Speaker 1: play Sidney Prescott's husband in this movie. I am very

907
00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:20,600
Speaker 1: suspicious of his character because what you see in the

908
00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:22,520
Speaker 1: trailer is him being attacked.

909
00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:24,120
Speaker 2: But if I learned.

910
00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:26,880
Speaker 1: Anything from watching horror movies is you always have to

911
00:47:26,920 --> 00:47:30,400
Speaker 1: pay attention to the love interests, whether they're just dating

912
00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 1: whether they're married, especially if they've recently just come into

913
00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:38,080
Speaker 1: the picture, they are suspect number one in my book.

914
00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:41,200
Speaker 1: So I would keep my eyes on Joe McHale's character

915
00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:44,279
Speaker 1: because even though you see him being attacked, I have

916
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:46,920
Speaker 1: my suspicions because of how close he is to Sydney.

917
00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:49,560
Speaker 1: I have to imagine he played a part in them

918
00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:52,680
Speaker 1: going to this remote town trying to get away from everything.

919
00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:56,840
Speaker 1: He knows too many details. So even though Scream is

920
00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:59,759
Speaker 1: not my favorite franchise, I do respect what it has

921
00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:03,120
Speaker 1: done for the horror genre. If I had to create

922
00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:06,960
Speaker 1: a mount rushmore of horror icons, ghost Face would be

923
00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:11,399
Speaker 1: up there because of just how recognizable that face is

924
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:14,440
Speaker 1: and how memorable these movies have been over the years,

925
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:16,839
Speaker 1: and the fact that this movie will come out in

926
00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:20,920
Speaker 1: theaters and probably still make some decent money. And boy,

927
00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:24,600
Speaker 1: did we just have one of the worst Octobers of

928
00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:28,600
Speaker 1: all time at the box office. We need movies like this.

929
00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:32,239
Speaker 1: And the crazy thing about October is there were so

930
00:48:32,440 --> 00:48:35,680
Speaker 1: many original movies, great movies that we talked about here,

931
00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:38,960
Speaker 1: but they just didn't entice people enough to get them

932
00:48:38,960 --> 00:48:41,720
Speaker 1: into a theater to pay for a ticket to go.

933
00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:42,160
Speaker 2: And see them.

934
00:48:42,200 --> 00:48:45,240
Speaker 1: On the big screen. But it does open my eyes

935
00:48:45,320 --> 00:48:48,360
Speaker 1: just a little bit. I'm not giving into the corporations completely,

936
00:48:48,760 --> 00:48:51,400
Speaker 1: but you can start to see why some of these

937
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:56,120
Speaker 1: businesses are investing so much in IP and why they

938
00:48:56,160 --> 00:49:00,719
Speaker 1: do crank out movies like this year after year, even

939
00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:04,640
Speaker 1: though we complain about them online, saying we want original ideas.

940
00:49:05,080 --> 00:49:08,720
Speaker 1: When those original ideas don't get the support that they need,

941
00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:11,200
Speaker 1: then you start to get your scream sevens.

942
00:49:11,520 --> 00:49:13,520
Speaker 2: And it is a tough thing. I'll compare this to

943
00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:14,280
Speaker 2: me being vegan.

944
00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:17,400
Speaker 1: Sometimes when I go out to dinner and I go

945
00:49:17,440 --> 00:49:20,520
Speaker 1: to a restaurant and they have one vegan option, and

946
00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:23,479
Speaker 1: they expect me to be so excited for that one

947
00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:27,160
Speaker 1: vegan option. Sometimes I still don't want to eat that

948
00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:29,920
Speaker 1: one vegan option because it doesn't sound good to me

949
00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:32,960
Speaker 1: because it's some salad with cherry tomatoes and I hate

950
00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:35,600
Speaker 1: cherry tomatoes. That is my worst food of all time.

951
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:38,239
Speaker 1: I will not eat one. I just can't do it.

952
00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:40,280
Speaker 1: And you're like, no, but there's one vegan option.

953
00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:41,719
Speaker 2: You're vegan, you need to eat this.

954
00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:44,839
Speaker 1: If somebody along those same lines is saying, oh man,

955
00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:48,680
Speaker 1: I'm so sick of all these remakes and sequels and reboots.

956
00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:51,880
Speaker 1: I just want an original movie. Oh hey, well this

957
00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:54,840
Speaker 1: week there is this new movie out, totally original. You

958
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:57,360
Speaker 1: should go check it out. And you look at the title,

959
00:49:57,400 --> 00:49:59,120
Speaker 1: look at the people in it, and you're like, nah,

960
00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:01,239
Speaker 1: that doesn't sound good to me. There I heard bad

961
00:50:01,280 --> 00:50:03,319
Speaker 1: things about it actually, And you're like, what I thought

962
00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:05,759
Speaker 1: you were just saying that you want an original movie.

963
00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:09,720
Speaker 1: But now everybody just turned away, Rufman. Everybody turned away

964
00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:13,160
Speaker 1: the Bruce Springsteen movie. We don't want that. We have

965
00:50:13,280 --> 00:50:16,680
Speaker 1: to continue to make movies and try to find the audiences.

966
00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:19,920
Speaker 1: What do people want to see? And sometimes I just

967
00:50:19,960 --> 00:50:23,239
Speaker 1: start to see why these movies just continue to come out.

968
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:25,600
Speaker 1: I mean, the trailer alone came out a week ago

969
00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:28,359
Speaker 1: and it has over ten million views on YouTube. There

970
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:31,280
Speaker 1: is an audience for this. I'm still bummed that Melissa

971
00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:33,879
Speaker 1: Barrera and Jenna Ortega will no longer be a part

972
00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:37,120
Speaker 1: of this franchise. I think, to me, they are what

973
00:50:37,320 --> 00:50:40,120
Speaker 1: made it different, what made it more exciting.

974
00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:41,440
Speaker 2: It just feels like all.

975
00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:43,319
Speaker 1: The movies now are going to be a retread on

976
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:46,200
Speaker 1: things we have already seen before. But I am willing

977
00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:49,640
Speaker 1: to give Scream one more shot. And I say that now.

978
00:50:50,080 --> 00:50:52,439
Speaker 1: But then when screammay comes out in like twenty twenty

979
00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:54,840
Speaker 1: seven or twenty twenty eight, I guess that makes more sense.

980
00:50:55,040 --> 00:50:57,760
Speaker 1: I'm going to be here having the same conversation because

981
00:50:58,040 --> 00:51:01,319
Speaker 1: there'll be one little detail ghost face burning up an

982
00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:05,880
Speaker 1: entire house that'll get me crawling back. But again, Scream

983
00:51:05,960 --> 00:51:09,240
Speaker 1: seven comes out in theaters on February twenty seventh, twenty

984
00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:11,239
Speaker 1: twenty six. I don't know why I sound even more

985
00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:12,080
Speaker 1: dejected now.

986
00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:16,560
Speaker 2: Said that was this week's edition of movie Lie Framer

987
00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:17,400
Speaker 2: par N.

988
00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:19,719
Speaker 1: That is gonna do it for another episode here of

989
00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:21,920
Speaker 1: the podcast. But before I go, I gotta give my

990
00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:25,200
Speaker 1: listeners shout out of the week. This week, I'm going

991
00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:29,160
Speaker 1: over to my YouTube channel YouTube dot com slash Mike Distro.

992
00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:32,279
Speaker 1: I post individual movie reviews over.

993
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:33,080
Speaker 2: There on that channel.

994
00:51:33,560 --> 00:51:36,880
Speaker 1: Last week put up my review of Bagonia after Kelsey

995
00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:39,600
Speaker 1: and I saw it in thirty five millimeter, And this

996
00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:41,640
Speaker 1: week's listener shout out of the week goes to a

997
00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:46,440
Speaker 1: comment from Lord Salamie thirteen thirty five. It's always funny

998
00:51:46,480 --> 00:51:48,879
Speaker 1: when I get a really nice comment and then I'm like, okay,

999
00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:51,000
Speaker 1: I need a shout out this person, And then I

1000
00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:54,080
Speaker 1: go to their username, and it's always something weird like

1001
00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:58,400
Speaker 1: Lord Salami thirteen thirty five. The contrast is always just

1002
00:51:58,600 --> 00:52:02,560
Speaker 1: entertaining to me. But Lord Salami says saw this at

1003
00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:06,200
Speaker 1: the bell Court this past week as well. Great video.

1004
00:52:06,640 --> 00:52:10,320
Speaker 1: Thank you Lord Salami for checking out the channel on YouTube.

1005
00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:14,000
Speaker 1: I am glad that you have also experienced watching a

1006
00:52:14,040 --> 00:52:16,120
Speaker 1: movie at the Bell Court, which I know if you

1007
00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:18,040
Speaker 1: don't live in Nashville and you hear us talk about

1008
00:52:18,040 --> 00:52:21,240
Speaker 1: that theater so much, it might fall on deaf ears

1009
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:24,400
Speaker 1: to you. But I encourage you to find your Bell Court,

1010
00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:27,720
Speaker 1: your independent theater in your city, in your area. Maybe

1011
00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:29,719
Speaker 1: you gotta drive thirty minutes to go to it, but

1012
00:52:29,840 --> 00:52:33,480
Speaker 1: I do think you will get a more unique experience.

1013
00:52:33,560 --> 00:52:36,680
Speaker 1: I especially love it for smaller movies like Bagonia, which

1014
00:52:36,719 --> 00:52:39,479
Speaker 1: I was bummed to see. It had a pretty low

1015
00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:42,680
Speaker 1: opening weekend four point eight million in its wide release,

1016
00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:46,960
Speaker 1: has still only made under ten million dollars worldwide, and

1017
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:50,000
Speaker 1: it costs forty five million dollars to produce. It's just

1018
00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:53,640
Speaker 1: sad to me then a movie that good that'll probably

1019
00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:56,800
Speaker 1: end up in my top ten easily, maybe even my

1020
00:52:56,920 --> 00:53:00,440
Speaker 1: top five of the year, will not make money and

1021
00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:02,840
Speaker 1: do We just need to start making movies cheaper. What

1022
00:53:03,080 --> 00:53:07,759
Speaker 1: is happening here, but support movies like Bagonia. Go to

1023
00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:11,280
Speaker 1: your local theater. Thank you, Lord Salami, thank you for listening.

1024
00:53:11,560 --> 00:53:15,000
Speaker 1: And until next time, everybody a part of the movie crew.

1025
00:53:15,480 --> 00:53:17,919
Speaker 2: Go out and watch good movies and I will talk

1026
00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:19,160
Speaker 2: to you later
