We were early 47 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: on this, the popcorn bucket craze. 48 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 3: You and I were. 49 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,920 Speaker 1: Early on this when we talked about the Taylor Swift 50 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: Aras tour bucket. Yeah and cup and this was years ago, yep. 51 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 1: And it has gotten out of hand. 52 00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:54,679 Speaker 3: It really has. Every movie has to have a popcorn 53 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,359 Speaker 3: bucket now, yeah, and they're all like thirty five bucks 54 00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 3: or something like that, and. 55 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: It's just and they don't hold much popcorn. 56 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,080 Speaker 3: They don't hold much popcorn. They're there to be just 57 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 3: a mantle piece or whatever something for the collection. But yeah, 58 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 3: they don't hold much popcorn. If they do hold popcorn, 59 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,239 Speaker 3: it's just gonna be dirty in there and there's no 60 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 3: way to clean it. Like my son got one for 61 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 3: Deadpool and Wolverine, and it's a taxi cab that you 62 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 3: put popcorn into and it's like there's no way to 63 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 3: get the popcorn out of it once you start to 64 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 3: eat it. It's not a popcorn bucket, it's a fake. 65 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: Taxi, yes, And then what do you do with it 66 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 1: during the movie. 67 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 3: You just have to sit there with it. 68 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 1: Right, so you need an empty seat next to you. 69 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: But then you hope that's not the case because you 70 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 1: want to pack the eater. But like, what are you 71 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: supposed to do with this thing? Yeah, exactly, And then 72 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 1: we need a whole other bucket of popcorn. Just eat popcorn. 73 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 3: That's the thing is. Yeah, they don't actually put popcorn 74 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 3: in it most of the time. They just hand it 75 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,560 Speaker 3: to you and then give you a large popcorn to 76 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 3: go along with it. So now you've got all this 77 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 3: stuff with you. It's a craze that I don't quite 78 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 3: understand why everything needs to have one. 79 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: So we were early on this, we called it out 80 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 1: that there would that this would happen. Yeah, here we are. 81 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: Now we've probably jumped the shark on it. This is 82 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: this is now the new suggestion. And let's hope that 83 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 1: the movie theaters jump on this because I think this 84 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,680 Speaker 1: will make for a better experience. Is instead of the 85 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 1: popcorn bucket, let's do a little merch stand. Okay, So 86 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: that way, when you leave the movie, you can go 87 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: and you know, kind of like when you go to 88 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: an aquarium at the zoo and you got to walk 89 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 1: through the souvenir stand like the room after. Let's do 90 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: this at the movie theater. 91 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 3: Have shirts for the movies and. 92 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: Shirts you could have, you could have physical media. Maybe 93 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 1: we have some DVDs, yeah take home. Not of the 94 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 1: movie you just saw yet, but yeah, right right, because 95 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 1: imagine if you you just went to Scream seven or 96 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 1: Wildhorse nine, and you want Wildhorse one through eight, you 97 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 1: can get the set on DVD as you're walking out. 98 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 3: Yeah. Uh you know. Oh that's actually a fun idea. 99 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 3: That would be great just to have. Yeah, sure, everybody 100 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 3: through a single exit and they have to look at 101 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 3: all the shirts and the posters and all that stuff. 102 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,160 Speaker 3: That's a fun idea. I don't know why the movie 103 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 3: theater hasn't done that yet. I think the Alamo might 104 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 3: have like merch stuff, but it's not like you're forced 105 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 3: to walk through it. 106 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 1: Like this, not like that. Yeah, so I love it. 107 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,160 Speaker 3: I love it. Okay, America. 108 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 1: Yes, that's my gift to America for two fifty. 109 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:30,720 Speaker 3: Oh it's very nice of you. 110 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:31,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you. 111 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 3: My gift was I got nothing.

This 135 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 1: game Stop should partner with the movie theaters and maybe 136 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 1: that's the merch stand when you're leaving. Maybe, and that's 137 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 1: what keeps it's the partnership that keeps them alive. Because 138 00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: this is this is gonna hurt. 139 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,680 Speaker 3: This is gonna hurt those places. Yeah, they're going to 140 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 3: have to redo a lot of their planning for what 141 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 3: they actually sell because yeah, I mean, they can sell 142 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 3: a new copy of it and you have a box 143 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 3: for it or whatever, but there's no disc there, there's nothing. 144 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 3: There's just a code that you go take home and 145 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 3: download then, you know, and there's people that maybe don't 146 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 3: have access to internet all the time, they're not going 147 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 3: to be able to buy these new games. 148 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's too bad. It really sucks that that's where 149 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: we're heading. 150 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I'm a huge purveyor of physical media. 151 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 3: I think that everything should stay on physical media. You know, 152 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 3: I have my two thousand ish DVD collection. You know, 153 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 3: we have probably three hundred video games of physical copies 154 00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 3: of them, just because we're collectors and that's what we 155 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 3: want to do. And yeah, eventually it's not going to 156 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 3: amount to anything. There's not going to be anything to purchase. 157 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 3: And that's the thing is when you download, like a 158 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,600 Speaker 3: movie from somewhere, you don't own that movie. You are 159 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 3: licensing it essentially, and they can say, ah, we're done 160 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 3: with this movie now, and they can take it off 161 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 3: at any time. 162 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: And that's the scary part. Like you you spent, You're 163 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 1: gonna spend the same amount of money. 164 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 3: Yep, you still have to spend twenty bucks till cheaper. 165 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: I mean, it's gonna be what it is. 166 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, that's too bad. 167 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: I do want to circle back to War the Worlds 168 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 1: with ice Cube and the only reason I want to 169 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 1: circle back. And I know we talked about this movie 170 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: and how bad it. 171 00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 3: Was a year ago. Yeah, during our. 172 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,319 Speaker 1: Worst of the year, yes, Pod, but I did go 173 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 1: back and watch this movie, yeah, this year, and I'm 174 00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: on the side that it although bad, and although the 175 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:48,560 Speaker 1: performance was questionable, the idea is pretty fun and I 176 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: kind of enjoyed it. Ice Cube did what he could do. 177 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 1: He maybe was just miscast. 178 00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 3: He was very miscast. He's yeah, he's not reaction guy. 179 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 1: No, and this movie needed that. 180 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 3: Keenan Thompson would be a better reaction guy. 181 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 1: Keenan Thompson would have been good. Jake Gillenhall, I could 182 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,079 Speaker 1: see him doing this, although we've seen movies with him 183 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: doing something. 184 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 3: Similar, yeah Source Code with he was just kind of 185 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:16,959 Speaker 3: sitting there and having to react to things. 186 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 1: So it's just there was potential I think for this idea. 187 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 1: It was just miscast, but the idea that Oh and 188 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: also and it was funny, but in a way it 189 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 1: wasn't supposed to be funny. Like ice Cube, you know, 190 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 1: his characters, his his kids and his family. They're going 191 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 1: through things because of the WARLD and the world, everything 192 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 1: going on outside, and he's stuck in this surveillance room 193 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 1: and he'll flip at the drop of a dime to 194 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: just answer phone calls from people when like his family 195 00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 1: screaming and like or there's a national emergency phone call. 196 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: He's on yeah, and he'll just be like, hold on, 197 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 1: I gotta take this call. It's so funny. It's like 198 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 1: unintentionally funny. 199 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I definitely, it definitely is hilarious, but not 200 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 3: in the way that they were intending. 201 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 1: I think. Yeah, so you can watch that on Prime. 202 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 3: It was well. And that's the thing is that Prime 203 00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,199 Speaker 3: is a very big sponsor of the movie. Ye, Like, 204 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 3: that's the thing is like the hero at the end 205 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 3: is flying an Amazon drone to get what needs to 206 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:32,440 Speaker 3: go somewhere, and he's, you know, an Amazon worker, and 207 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:34,320 Speaker 3: they're they're the heroes. 208 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: They were the heroes. Yeah, no, I'm I ended that 209 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 1: movie thinking this, this doesn't deserve all. 210 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 3: The hate, Like you know, I don't know. I still 211 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 3: gave it the half star. I mean, as much as 212 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 3: I did enjoy the absurdity of it, I still couldn't. 213 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:57,839 Speaker 3: I think it's maybe one of those movies. Once again, 214 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 3: I would have a five star experiences watching it with 215 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 3: a bunch of people, but I didn't watch it with 216 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:06,559 Speaker 3: a bunch of people, and instead I'm just saying here, 217 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,559 Speaker 3: going what is this? Like my first time ever watching 218 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 3: The Room, I watched it alone, which was a bad move. 219 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 3: I watched on DVD at home back in two thousand 220 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 3: and five or something like that, and I'm just sitting there, 221 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 3: I'm like, what is this movie? This is ridiculous? And 222 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 3: then I started to get into it over time. But 223 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:28,680 Speaker 3: watching some of those movies can be difficult at first. 224 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 1: What made you like you watched it alone and you're like, 225 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 1: this is just awful? What made you go back and 226 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:35,960 Speaker 1: watch it again but with people? 227 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 3: Because I saw that it was performed or being played 228 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 3: at the local theater on a midnight show. 229 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 1: And you were just like this is insane? Why would 230 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: this be okay? 231 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 3: Yeah? And I started reading more about it afterwards because 232 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:49,959 Speaker 3: I had no idea what the movie was before I 233 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 3: watched it. I just was handed it to me and 234 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,640 Speaker 3: somebody said, you need to watch this. So then I 235 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:56,880 Speaker 3: started reading more about it and what was going on 236 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 3: with the movie, and it just became more entertaining to 237 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,199 Speaker 3: learn more about it. And so finally the Midnight Movie 238 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,119 Speaker 3: came along, and it's like, this is great. 239 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: Very nice. Okay, anything else about the movies first half 240 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 1: of twenty six and then I've got a couple of 241 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,080 Speaker 1: very important things to ask you. 242 00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 3: Okay, No, nothing else about movies right now. I think 243 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 3: we covered most of it. Yeah, I think that's all 244 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 3: of it for right now for the first half. 245 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 1: And that's the thing you get to July fourth, and 246 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 1: from here on, I mean, it's gonna be just a 247 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: monster stretch run for the movies as we head into 248 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 1: award season. 249 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, we're going to start seeing a lot 250 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,560 Speaker 3: of those movies coming out that you know that are 251 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,680 Speaker 3: going to be those contenders. So my top ten is 252 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 3: definitely gonna change a lot between now and January. But yeah, 253 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 3: I'm very excited for the second half of the year. 254 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 3: I think there's some great things that are coming out. 255 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,959 Speaker 3: I'll plug again Wildhorse nine looks fantastic.

The Beach Boys, Yes, underrated. 260 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 3: The Beach Boys. I think that. Uh, I mean they're 261 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 3: the main competitor. I look at the Beatles to the 262 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,719 Speaker 3: Beach Boys, and you know, the Beatles obviously get the 263 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 3: more love out of this too. Beach Boys have some 264 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 3: solid things out there going on for them, but there 265 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 3: was I would say that they're underrated, but they're not 266 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 3: also my favorite band by any means. 267 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 1: Okay, they're They've just got catchy pop songs. Basically, they're 268 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: They're definitely that kind of surfer California vibe. They did 269 00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: get it into some weird stuff when they were experimenting 270 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:59,840 Speaker 1: with drugs. What about and very similar to the Beatles. 271 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 3: Are similar to the Beatles? 272 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:05,560 Speaker 1: Yes, what about the Beach Boys didn't like attract you? 273 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 3: I don't know it, just like I'm not a huge 274 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:11,040 Speaker 3: Beatles fan either, Like neither one of those bands are 275 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 3: like my favorite things. You know, all listen if they're 276 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,320 Speaker 3: on or whatever, but neither one of them really drives 277 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 3: me in. I guess the Beach Boys, though, do have 278 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 3: the John Stamos effect with them. 279 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 1: And that was the next thing I was gonna ask 280 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 1: you about the Beach Boys is when will they receive 281 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 1: their full credit? Because you would have thought maybe when 282 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: Brian Wilson died, and I still don't feel like they did. No, 283 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 1: So now are we waiting for John Stamos to die? 284 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: Like what what do we When do they get their love? 285 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: He is a member of the Beach Boys. 286 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 3: Now, yes, I don't know. I think that going around 287 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 3: and touring and like your opening act is Hanson, I 288 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:46,920 Speaker 3: think that's going to discredit you a little bit. Like 289 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 3: Hanson's a fine act. 290 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: I didn't expect Hanson shade today, I'll be honest with you, but. 291 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,120 Speaker 3: I mean they're the ones that open for the Beach Boys. 292 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 3: For a while was Hanson, and it's just like I 293 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 3: have nothing against Hanson these days, but it's not like 294 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 3: they're like known for being I don't know a big 295 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 3: thing anymore. They will live forever, Bop will live forever, 296 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 3: But I mean, like fun fact tying things back earlier, 297 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 3: that video was directed by Weird Alankovic. Was it really Yeah? 298 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 3: And he appears in another one of their videos later on. 299 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 1: I did not know that. 300 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, he has some like big cameos. Yeah, he's he's uh, 301 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 3: he's all over the place.
