Here we're seeing along 111 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 1: with stuff like Five Nights at Freddy's yea how independent film, 112 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: independent content that specifically gets popular on YouTube can be 113 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: popular in movie theaters. 114 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:34,599 Speaker 3: I agree. 115 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,919 Speaker 4: I also think, to me, it's like I have nieces 116 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 4: and nephews who love YouTube, and this guy is somebody 117 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 4: that even people I know who are my friends, who 118 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 4: are in their twenties, they grew up watching this guy. 119 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 4: So to me, the fact that studios turned this down 120 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,719 Speaker 4: is like, that's a studio issue, because I could have 121 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 4: told you this movie was gonna open well, like even 122 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 4: though I didn't really I don't. 123 00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 3: I haven't seen the trailer. I know what it's about. 124 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 4: It's about kind of a deep underwater sci fi space mission, 125 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 4: but they're like on a planet where the blood's the 126 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 4: ocean is all blood. 127 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 3: I don't know. 128 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 4: Apparently it's super cool, super high concept made for three 129 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 4: million dollars. That to me is like, that's a studio miss. 130 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,560 Speaker 4: The thing that's really crazy about this movie is that 131 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 4: it beat the new Sam Raimi movie Send Help, which 132 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 4: also did well for a R rated horror and is 133 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 4: apparently a completely wild movie. I can't wait to see it. 134 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 4: But the fact that it beat Sam Raimi, like this 135 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 4: is a new generation of filmmakers. What I really love 136 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 4: is this alleged rumor that he is next gonna attempt 137 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 4: to adapt House of Leaves, which is one of the 138 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 4: most insanely laid out books ever made. 139 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 3: It's just like cult classic horror novel. 140 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 4: If you've read it, you know why it feels like 141 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 4: it would be so impossible to adapt to the screen. 142 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 3: So yeah, I'm I'm really into this. 143 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 4: I love the concept of indie horror, especially when we're 144 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 4: looking at a year as we're about to talk about 145 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 4: where like some franchise horror trying to come back. I 146 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 4: don't know if that's where horror is the future of 147 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 4: horror is anymore. I think it might be in these 148 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 4: independent things. Five Nights I Freddy's still owned by the 149 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 4: guy who made it. He created the game and then 150 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 4: was able to license it as a book, as graphic novels, 151 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 4: and ultimately. 152 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 3: As a movie. 153 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 4: Mark Player also a guy who owns this completely. He 154 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 4: made it with his own production studio. I think that's 155 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 4: probably gonna be our future, because now it's getting harder 156 00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 4: to ignore the corporations behind the movies that we love, 157 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 4: and I think for some people, especially in the crease 158 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 4: of Scream seven, which is coming up. That's going to 159 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,839 Speaker 4: start to become a problem Scream seven. 160 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 1: Speaking of Scream seven, it's approaching a thirty million dollar 161 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,080 Speaker 1: US opening at the box office. The movie's coming out 162 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 1: of February twenty sixth, but is but the tracking is 163 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: targeting about thirty million dollars. It looks like it could 164 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 1: be the second largest opening domestically after the Geno or 165 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 1: Tago led Scream six open to forty four. 166 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,559 Speaker 3: You were never going to get that money after Jenna left, guys. 167 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,959 Speaker 1: And there of course, you know, like lots of controversies 168 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: attached with this, including a marketing campaign with Meta AI 169 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: that allows Meta users to auto generate images of themselves 170 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 1: in scenes of the movie. You're gonna say they need 171 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 1: that in the future, and it's a thing that nobody 172 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 1: wants that, you know. I'm I don't think that's a 173 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,439 Speaker 1: thing that will make anybody money. 174 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 4: But I think it's going to be lower I think 175 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 4: I just think it's going to be lower to I 176 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 4: think that whatever you know you felt about I don't know, 177 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:32,840 Speaker 4: we say whatever you felt the Scream. 178 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:35,079 Speaker 3: The last two screen movies were phenomenal. 179 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 4: Hits six made more money than ever they were led 180 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 4: by genera taker Melissa Barrera, incredible casting. They had a momentum, 181 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,679 Speaker 4: they had that legacy cost They had struggled to keep 182 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:46,839 Speaker 4: Neive Campbell in because they were not paying her enough, 183 00:09:46,840 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 4: which they should have been doing. 184 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 3: But I think that that momentum is all but squashed. 185 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 4: There's a lot of critiques online of the trailers, saying 186 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 4: it looks like Halloween Kills, all these kind of you 187 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 4: know movies where they try and sort of almost to 188 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 4: raise what has come before. But there's also a lot 189 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 4: of worry that maybe Mason and Jasmine's characters from the 190 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 4: Core four are going to be the opening kills. There's 191 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,320 Speaker 4: all kinds of things here that are just not really 192 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 4: feeling like they continue the legacy, even aside from the 193 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 4: fact that they fired Melissa Barrera under very controversial circumstances 194 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 4: after she called what was happening in Palestina genocide very 195 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:19,319 Speaker 4: early on in the conflict. 196 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 3: So now that has obviously the Overton window and that. 197 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 4: Has shifted, and Melissa is very popular and that is 198 00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 4: a and so now to see them leaning into generative AI. 199 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 4: They've also had issues with you know ads where it's like, 200 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 4: do some free art for Scream and then you can 201 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:36,679 Speaker 4: get put in a gallery or something. You know, these 202 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 4: kind of schemes to raise awareness of the movie in 203 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,480 Speaker 4: a way that is not necessarily organic. And I think 204 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 4: the saddest thing about losing Jenner and Melissa, aside from 205 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 4: the like obviously what it represents in the studio space, 206 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 4: was like they kept that franchise alive. Like I loved 207 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 4: following that whole cast on the internet. You felt like 208 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 4: once Scream five was out, you knew Scream six was 209 00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:59,839 Speaker 4: coming out until that whole year you were waiting. You're 210 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 4: looking at the photo drops, you are looking at the dumps. 211 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 4: This time, I feel like we don't even know what the. 212 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 3: Movie's gonna be about. Well, there have been leaks. 213 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 4: If the leaks are true, it's definitely not gonna make 214 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 4: a lot of money. But fingers crossed, I think it 215 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,439 Speaker 4: could be a stripped back, interesting version. But I am 216 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 4: on the the Sam and Meliss Brera side. 217 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 3: I think it's a shame. 218 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,079 Speaker 4: I think that those last two movies were incredible, and 219 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 4: I think this is probably gonna open close to around 220 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 4: twenty But it will be interesting to see what the 221 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 4: reviews are like and how early and how confident they 222 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 4: feel to release them because if they get early word 223 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,680 Speaker 4: of mouth that's good. I could be totally wrong and 224 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 4: this could actually be the biggest that we've had so far. 225 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 4: If the word of mouth is good, I can sometimes 226 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 4: eraise any other issues. 227 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:45,680 Speaker 1: And totally, I just haven't seen the type of marketing 228 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 1: for this movie. Like I have saved these two movies, 229 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 1: like it's just the previous two. You know, there were billboards, 230 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 1: there were things everywhere. This time it's much quieter, notably quieter. 231 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 1: Up next, Deadline reports lead roles for women in top 232 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 1: films hit seven year low in twenty twenty five. 233 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 3: USC study finds the. 234 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: Number of girls and women leading the top movies of 235 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five has hit a seven year low.
