0:00:25.800 --> 0:00:28.960
<v Speaker 1>Hey everybody, and welcome to movie Crush. Charles W. Chuck

0:00:29.000 --> 0:00:31.640
<v Speaker 1>Bryant here in the studio at Pont City Market along

0:00:31.720 --> 0:00:35.680
<v Speaker 1>with Noel. Good morning, Chuck, Good morning the rods to

0:00:35.720 --> 0:00:42.760
<v Speaker 1>my frasier. Uh it is it is morning peep behind

0:00:42.760 --> 0:00:47.360
<v Speaker 1>the curtain. Yeah, so far we've we've recorded these kind

0:00:47.360 --> 0:00:48.800
<v Speaker 1>of first thing in the morning, which is I'm not

0:00:48.880 --> 0:00:50.239
<v Speaker 1>used to that. I kind of like it. I'm I'm

0:00:50.280 --> 0:00:52.000
<v Speaker 1>a little bit fresher in the morning than i am

0:00:52.080 --> 0:00:55.000
<v Speaker 1>later in the day. Sometimes we are not nearly as stoned,

0:00:56.240 --> 0:01:00.800
<v Speaker 1>just just a little bit getting everyone of course. Um,

0:01:00.920 --> 0:01:05.399
<v Speaker 1>so welcome too many Crush number three. Uh. Judging from

0:01:05.400 --> 0:01:09.560
<v Speaker 1>the feedback on Facebook and and Twitter, you guys are

0:01:09.560 --> 0:01:11.840
<v Speaker 1>liking these, which that just delights me to know end

0:01:11.880 --> 0:01:15.399
<v Speaker 1>because the whole idea was to do something fan centric

0:01:16.720 --> 0:01:20.399
<v Speaker 1>and we are super glad and the decision to get

0:01:20.520 --> 0:01:23.360
<v Speaker 1>Nol on the mic was almost last minute, and I

0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:26.120
<v Speaker 1>think it's key. So I'm just not here talking to

0:01:26.200 --> 0:01:29.880
<v Speaker 1>myself like a goober. I think you pull it off,

0:01:29.959 --> 0:01:31.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, but it's it's nice to have a human

0:01:31.360 --> 0:01:33.160
<v Speaker 1>to bounce things off of. And I'm honored to be

0:01:33.240 --> 0:01:35.720
<v Speaker 1>your your bouncing platform. Well, You're as close to a

0:01:35.760 --> 0:01:38.399
<v Speaker 1>human as we're gonna get. So that's that's the nicest

0:01:38.400 --> 0:01:41.040
<v Speaker 1>thing anyone said to me all week. Uh And if

0:01:41.080 --> 0:01:43.640
<v Speaker 1>you don't know yet, go to the Facebook page like it,

0:01:43.880 --> 0:01:46.040
<v Speaker 1>because that is where you're going to be interacting with

0:01:46.080 --> 0:01:51.720
<v Speaker 1>this show, with your remarks and your what I throw

0:01:51.760 --> 0:01:54.360
<v Speaker 1>out questions and stuff. And it's really kind of one

0:01:54.400 --> 0:01:56.000
<v Speaker 1>of the most fun parts of this job so far.

0:01:56.320 --> 0:01:58.480
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell you what. It's the least fun is booking guests.

0:01:59.200 --> 0:02:01.480
<v Speaker 1>That is no fun. I had people write someone who

0:02:01.480 --> 0:02:03.480
<v Speaker 1>wrote any the other day. It was like, I really

0:02:03.520 --> 0:02:05.720
<v Speaker 1>think you should um have people someone like this and

0:02:05.760 --> 0:02:08.520
<v Speaker 1>someone like this and like a Neil deGrasse Tyson cool

0:02:08.680 --> 0:02:10.799
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, yeah, I would love that. Get

0:02:10.880 --> 0:02:13.079
<v Speaker 1>him for me. Go get him for me. That'd be great.

0:02:14.360 --> 0:02:17.360
<v Speaker 1>All Right, I'm gonna do a couple of um corrections here,

0:02:17.360 --> 0:02:21.040
<v Speaker 1>not corrections to additions to to past shows, and feel

0:02:21.040 --> 0:02:23.600
<v Speaker 1>free to write him with corrections, but these are my own. UM.

0:02:23.639 --> 0:02:27.360
<v Speaker 1>When we were talking about digital versus film, and I

0:02:27.360 --> 0:02:30.799
<v Speaker 1>was talking about my friend Scottie the cinematographer, who um

0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:33.799
<v Speaker 1>sort of, I was talking about how a lot of

0:02:34.080 --> 0:02:36.160
<v Speaker 1>not so talented directors these days, We'll just set up

0:02:36.160 --> 0:02:38.480
<v Speaker 1>a ton of cameras and shoot everything. They call that

0:02:38.560 --> 0:02:42.560
<v Speaker 1>spray and pray. That's the lingo. That's awesome. Yeah, and

0:02:42.639 --> 0:02:44.440
<v Speaker 1>that makes sense, so he said, yeah, you should clear

0:02:44.480 --> 0:02:48.000
<v Speaker 1>that up. Um. Also, I mentioned when I was talking

0:02:48.000 --> 0:02:51.359
<v Speaker 1>about how hardly the sad story of Adrian Shelley uh,

0:02:51.360 --> 0:02:53.280
<v Speaker 1>and I mentioned, you know, because she was murdered in

0:02:53.320 --> 0:02:57.040
<v Speaker 1>her apartment in New York, that she was in the

0:02:57.080 --> 0:03:00.800
<v Speaker 1>movie Waitress. True, so not quite a action, but I

0:03:00.840 --> 0:03:03.800
<v Speaker 1>want to give full credit. Adrian Shelley Um wrote and

0:03:03.840 --> 0:03:07.520
<v Speaker 1>directed and starred and produced in Waitress. So that was

0:03:07.560 --> 0:03:10.800
<v Speaker 1>her creation, and we want to give her because you know,

0:03:11.320 --> 0:03:13.919
<v Speaker 1>especially at that time there you don't see a lot

0:03:13.919 --> 0:03:16.120
<v Speaker 1>of women writing and directing and producing and starring in

0:03:16.160 --> 0:03:17.920
<v Speaker 1>their own movies. And that is the source material for

0:03:17.960 --> 0:03:21.000
<v Speaker 1>the the hit Broadway show yes right now, which I

0:03:21.040 --> 0:03:24.240
<v Speaker 1>am almost positive was after her death. I think, I

0:03:24.240 --> 0:03:26.160
<v Speaker 1>mean it was. It wasn't last handful of years ago. Yeah,

0:03:26.200 --> 0:03:28.919
<v Speaker 1>because he was murdered. I looked up I think eleven

0:03:29.000 --> 0:03:32.000
<v Speaker 1>or twelve years ago, so it's very sad story. I

0:03:32.080 --> 0:03:37.280
<v Speaker 1>looked into that crime and it was a a I'm

0:03:37.280 --> 0:03:38.960
<v Speaker 1>not sure if I said it on the last show.

0:03:38.960 --> 0:03:47.120
<v Speaker 1>But he he was a worker, undocumented um Guatemalan construction worker.

0:03:47.800 --> 0:03:50.320
<v Speaker 1>And the story changed a few times from this guy.

0:03:50.960 --> 0:03:53.440
<v Speaker 1>He said that she came down and they got into

0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:56.800
<v Speaker 1>an argument because the noise, and she um hit him

0:03:56.880 --> 0:03:59.120
<v Speaker 1>and he hit her and she died and he freaked

0:03:59.160 --> 0:04:01.320
<v Speaker 1>out and then made took her upstairs and made it

0:04:01.360 --> 0:04:05.280
<v Speaker 1>look like she had been hanged in her shower. Yeah,

0:04:05.320 --> 0:04:08.440
<v Speaker 1>which is what they initially thought. Like They're like, you know,

0:04:08.560 --> 0:04:13.640
<v Speaker 1>she died from throat asphyxiation, said the word, and um,

0:04:13.760 --> 0:04:18.480
<v Speaker 1>the husband was like, no way, Like, she definitely did

0:04:18.480 --> 0:04:20.920
<v Speaker 1>not kill herself. She was not. I mean, it was

0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:23.280
<v Speaker 1>one of those where there was like literally there wasn't

0:04:23.279 --> 0:04:25.479
<v Speaker 1>even a hint of anything going on. She had a

0:04:25.480 --> 0:04:29.599
<v Speaker 1>young daughter, and uh, the story changed such to where

0:04:29.640 --> 0:04:33.240
<v Speaker 1>we eventually find out that he went into her. He

0:04:33.320 --> 0:04:35.760
<v Speaker 1>kind of stalked out the apartment and her went in

0:04:35.800 --> 0:04:39.000
<v Speaker 1>to rob her, and she caught him red handed and

0:04:39.200 --> 0:04:42.880
<v Speaker 1>he he hit her, and I think he thought she

0:04:43.000 --> 0:04:47.000
<v Speaker 1>was dead and very sadly, she was probably still alive,

0:04:47.080 --> 0:04:49.599
<v Speaker 1>they think when he made it look like she was

0:04:49.640 --> 0:04:52.320
<v Speaker 1>being hanged and she ended up dying because of being

0:04:52.360 --> 0:04:56.840
<v Speaker 1>hanged in her I know, but the husband is now, um,

0:04:57.839 --> 0:05:01.760
<v Speaker 1>come out as a as a big criminal um not

0:05:01.960 --> 0:05:05.839
<v Speaker 1>uh advocate but the opposite of advocacy. Yeah, well like

0:05:05.920 --> 0:05:10.680
<v Speaker 1>victim advocacy advocacy sorry like I said, it's morning, uh,

0:05:11.000 --> 0:05:14.360
<v Speaker 1>but but also at the same time as an advocate

0:05:15.320 --> 0:05:21.479
<v Speaker 1>um for for not not running the story that Hey,

0:05:21.640 --> 0:05:24.440
<v Speaker 1>this is what's important here is that this guy was

0:05:24.480 --> 0:05:28.560
<v Speaker 1>an undocumented immigrant. Um. He doesn't want that narrative to

0:05:28.560 --> 0:05:31.840
<v Speaker 1>be used because he said, it doesn't matter that he

0:05:31.920 --> 0:05:35.719
<v Speaker 1>was undocumented. What matters that this guy was a cold

0:05:35.720 --> 0:05:39.160
<v Speaker 1>blooded killer, absolutely, and that that really is a problematic

0:05:39.160 --> 0:05:41.840
<v Speaker 1>way to tell that story, and it's it's it's a

0:05:41.880 --> 0:05:44.000
<v Speaker 1>way that could be like jumped on by folks that

0:05:44.000 --> 0:05:47.120
<v Speaker 1>are trying to it out against iteration, and that's just

0:05:47.240 --> 0:05:53.760
<v Speaker 1>it totally irrelevant, totally irrelevant. Quickly setting up the Oscar shows,

0:05:53.960 --> 0:05:55.400
<v Speaker 1>most of you know by now, I'm going to do

0:05:55.440 --> 0:05:59.159
<v Speaker 1>a pre Oscars and post Oscar show over some red

0:05:59.200 --> 0:06:02.560
<v Speaker 1>wine with only my wife at home after we put

0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:05.200
<v Speaker 1>the kid to bed. And those are going to be

0:06:05.240 --> 0:06:08.840
<v Speaker 1>pretty fun. So look for those coming up. And this

0:06:08.880 --> 0:06:11.800
<v Speaker 1>week segment one, go ahead and get into it with

0:06:11.839 --> 0:06:20.720
<v Speaker 1>another social studies. So social studies. The question I threw

0:06:20.760 --> 0:06:23.360
<v Speaker 1>out this week on Facebook. Um, actually it's a few

0:06:23.400 --> 0:06:25.080
<v Speaker 1>weeks ago, but you know, you know how that goes.

0:06:25.720 --> 0:06:28.400
<v Speaker 1>What was the first movie to legitimately make you scared

0:06:29.120 --> 0:06:32.679
<v Speaker 1>long after it was over. I had to think about

0:06:32.680 --> 0:06:36.599
<v Speaker 1>this one, um, and my answer is a bit of

0:06:36.600 --> 0:06:38.760
<v Speaker 1>a cop out, and that I could not remember a

0:06:38.760 --> 0:06:43.719
<v Speaker 1>specific movie, although I'm sure it's happened, But I am

0:06:43.720 --> 0:06:47.000
<v Speaker 1>going to go with the combo of Exorcist and Omen

0:06:47.760 --> 0:06:51.359
<v Speaker 1>before I saw them. When you grow up, like everyone

0:06:51.400 --> 0:06:53.520
<v Speaker 1>knows I did, when you grow up a little Southern

0:06:53.520 --> 0:06:57.880
<v Speaker 1>Baptist boy, there's no scarier boogeyman on planet Earth than Satan.

0:06:58.760 --> 0:07:03.000
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna say, Jesus, that comes later, uh, then

0:07:03.040 --> 0:07:07.320
<v Speaker 1>the Devil himself. And I remember I was a little

0:07:07.360 --> 0:07:08.800
<v Speaker 1>kid when those came out, so I was just the

0:07:08.880 --> 0:07:11.960
<v Speaker 1>right age to really have a lot of fear in

0:07:12.000 --> 0:07:14.360
<v Speaker 1>me about that. And I just remember seeing the previews

0:07:14.840 --> 0:07:19.400
<v Speaker 1>and the trailers for the Antichrist, Omen Kid and the Exorcist,

0:07:20.040 --> 0:07:24.160
<v Speaker 1>and those those movies without seeing them stayed with me,

0:07:24.240 --> 0:07:26.600
<v Speaker 1>and that maybe that was part of it. Is the unknown,

0:07:26.960 --> 0:07:31.200
<v Speaker 1>but I was scared for a year straight, probably around

0:07:31.200 --> 0:07:33.440
<v Speaker 1>the release of those movies, and I don't even remember

0:07:33.440 --> 0:07:35.520
<v Speaker 1>when I saw them. It was much much later, and

0:07:35.560 --> 0:07:38.760
<v Speaker 1>they they're, you know, pretty legit scary movies. The trailer

0:07:38.800 --> 0:07:42.280
<v Speaker 1>for the Exorcist is fucking horrifying. It's got that black

0:07:42.320 --> 0:07:45.120
<v Speaker 1>that white face that kind of like twitches around. Yeah,

0:07:45.160 --> 0:07:48.400
<v Speaker 1>it's like the demon or like the possessed version of whatever.

0:07:48.720 --> 0:07:53.560
<v Speaker 1>Twitchy faces that'll do it. Uh, do you have one? Well,

0:07:53.560 --> 0:07:55.760
<v Speaker 1>I have, I have to. The one that um I

0:07:55.880 --> 0:07:59.640
<v Speaker 1>remember keeping me awake at night was the horrible TV

0:08:00.160 --> 0:08:04.400
<v Speaker 1>version of it, just because the clown and like weird

0:08:04.440 --> 0:08:06.840
<v Speaker 1>stuff happening to kids and all that. Like, I just

0:08:06.880 --> 0:08:10.560
<v Speaker 1>remember legitimately having nightmares and being laying awake in bed

0:08:10.600 --> 0:08:12.560
<v Speaker 1>being scared about that. But a movie that I had

0:08:12.600 --> 0:08:14.880
<v Speaker 1>no business seeing at the age I saw it was

0:08:14.920 --> 0:08:18.560
<v Speaker 1>Pet Cemetery. Yeah, and that movie was scary, dude. And

0:08:18.600 --> 0:08:23.040
<v Speaker 1>it's it's not only scary, it's it's utterly mean spirited, nasty,

0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:26.080
<v Speaker 1>and nothing good happens to any of those characters. I

0:08:26.120 --> 0:08:28.880
<v Speaker 1>remember being really scared at that. There's the sister Zelda.

0:08:29.360 --> 0:08:32.080
<v Speaker 1>It's all like skinny. It's actually a man, like a

0:08:32.120 --> 0:08:36.000
<v Speaker 1>really tall, gangly man that's playing a woman and she's like,

0:08:36.000 --> 0:08:39.280
<v Speaker 1>I'll twist your spy. So it's oh my god. That

0:08:39.520 --> 0:08:42.680
<v Speaker 1>was that that ruined me. Yeah, that one freaked me out.

0:08:42.720 --> 0:08:45.480
<v Speaker 1>And they shot that near my house. I don't know

0:08:45.520 --> 0:08:47.440
<v Speaker 1>about all of it, but parts of it they shot

0:08:47.559 --> 0:08:50.480
<v Speaker 1>at um what you well, you know Stone Mountain here.

0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:54.080
<v Speaker 1>There's also a Panola Mountain which is out toward where

0:08:54.120 --> 0:08:58.080
<v Speaker 1>I grew up in ridan Uh suburban Dekab County, and

0:08:58.120 --> 0:09:00.760
<v Speaker 1>that's part of the same granite slabs on mountain. But

0:09:00.760 --> 0:09:03.960
<v Speaker 1>there's a big area where they shot pet cemetery where

0:09:03.960 --> 0:09:07.520
<v Speaker 1>these big light granite outcroppings, and it was near me.

0:09:07.600 --> 0:09:09.720
<v Speaker 1>So I remember being scared of being like, I'm not

0:09:09.760 --> 0:09:11.880
<v Speaker 1>because we used to go like play around in hike

0:09:11.880 --> 0:09:14.120
<v Speaker 1>over there. Sometimes I'd be interested to see what parts

0:09:14.120 --> 0:09:15.560
<v Speaker 1>were shot there. I wonder if it was the house

0:09:15.640 --> 0:09:19.559
<v Speaker 1>or if it was the actual cemetery. I can't remember

0:09:19.600 --> 0:09:22.079
<v Speaker 1>spen No, I've been like, yeah, I can't imagine knowing

0:09:22.080 --> 0:09:24.520
<v Speaker 1>that any of that was shot anywhere where I live,

0:09:24.600 --> 0:09:26.760
<v Speaker 1>but that that was a bad one for me. Yeah. Well,

0:09:26.760 --> 0:09:28.080
<v Speaker 1>and I was still at the age where it's like

0:09:28.280 --> 0:09:30.719
<v Speaker 1>they shot that there, didn't there was no like oh

0:09:30.760 --> 0:09:32.160
<v Speaker 1>neat a movie was shot there. It was like, no,

0:09:32.240 --> 0:09:35.679
<v Speaker 1>that happened there. You know that's the spot, all right,

0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:37.320
<v Speaker 1>So let's get through some of these boys. There's a

0:09:37.320 --> 0:09:38.840
<v Speaker 1>lot of them, so I'll get too as many as

0:09:38.840 --> 0:09:42.880
<v Speaker 1>I can. Mitchell Page first player Witch Project from the nineties,

0:09:42.920 --> 0:09:45.600
<v Speaker 1>because my younger self foolishly believed it was real when

0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:48.640
<v Speaker 1>I saw it. Mitchell, don't feel bad, because that was

0:09:48.679 --> 0:09:54.000
<v Speaker 1>the whole point. Um. I remember the getting hip to

0:09:54.080 --> 0:09:58.640
<v Speaker 1>that viral campaign way early on and seeing the trailer

0:09:58.679 --> 0:10:04.360
<v Speaker 1>and the internet stuff and thinking either that this was

0:10:04.440 --> 0:10:06.880
<v Speaker 1>real or this is one of the most revolutionary like

0:10:07.200 --> 0:10:09.760
<v Speaker 1>marketing campaigns in movie history and turned out to be

0:10:09.840 --> 0:10:12.360
<v Speaker 1>number two. Eric Knight, oh man, I have a couple

0:10:12.360 --> 0:10:14.440
<v Speaker 1>of I'm gonna say fire in the Sky because the

0:10:14.480 --> 0:10:16.920
<v Speaker 1>movie I was terrified of being I was terrified of

0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:20.000
<v Speaker 1>being abducted by aliens. The scene where he's in zero

0:10:20.000 --> 0:10:22.280
<v Speaker 1>gravity and breaks through that pod and lands in the

0:10:22.360 --> 0:10:25.640
<v Speaker 1>middle of the decaying body. Nope, nope, nope, that's a

0:10:25.640 --> 0:10:29.120
<v Speaker 1>good one. Melissa Lynn also says fire in the Sky

0:10:29.240 --> 0:10:31.200
<v Speaker 1>she saw when she was seven years old, lived in

0:10:31.200 --> 0:10:35.880
<v Speaker 1>northwest Georgia amongst the tall, tall pine trees. Okay, that

0:10:35.960 --> 0:10:41.440
<v Speaker 1>makes sense, Um, Scott Stevens, the original Jurassic Park really

0:10:41.480 --> 0:10:43.720
<v Speaker 1>stayed with him. Like most kids in the early nineties,

0:10:43.720 --> 0:10:45.920
<v Speaker 1>I was dinosaur mad and thought the movie would be

0:10:45.960 --> 0:10:48.160
<v Speaker 1>the coolest thing ever. Finally saw it and it scared

0:10:48.200 --> 0:10:52.320
<v Speaker 1>me out of my mind. Melanie Kaufman The Descent, That

0:10:52.360 --> 0:10:54.679
<v Speaker 1>movie was pretty scary. I haven't seen it, but I've

0:10:54.720 --> 0:10:57.640
<v Speaker 1>I've heard good things from horror buffs friends of mine.

0:10:57.720 --> 0:10:59.760
<v Speaker 1>It was good. I couldn't sleep that night without music

0:10:59.760 --> 0:11:02.439
<v Speaker 1>playing in a light on. I was a tad claustrophobic

0:11:02.600 --> 0:11:05.280
<v Speaker 1>only for a year or two after. But you will

0:11:05.320 --> 0:11:08.160
<v Speaker 1>never never convince me to go speed lunking. Um. I

0:11:08.160 --> 0:11:13.319
<v Speaker 1>actually went spelunking once, Melanie, and it was awesome, awesome,

0:11:13.360 --> 0:11:15.560
<v Speaker 1>awesome and a little creepy. Is that where you repel,

0:11:15.840 --> 0:11:17.920
<v Speaker 1>like down the side of a cliff or something or No,

0:11:18.040 --> 0:11:22.760
<v Speaker 1>that's just repelling. Speed lunking is caving. Yeah, going into

0:11:22.760 --> 0:11:25.920
<v Speaker 1>the belly of the earth. Yeah, it's it's a little unsettling,

0:11:26.000 --> 0:11:28.120
<v Speaker 1>trust me, because you get the feeling that, like, I

0:11:28.120 --> 0:11:30.679
<v Speaker 1>could die down here. And it's such a silly word

0:11:30.880 --> 0:11:34.319
<v Speaker 1>for such a scale. Well, people also call it caving.

0:11:35.440 --> 0:11:39.000
<v Speaker 1>Amber Robertson first movie that scared me was alien. Here's

0:11:39.000 --> 0:11:41.720
<v Speaker 1>a setup we watched on what I assume was VHS

0:11:42.120 --> 0:11:44.000
<v Speaker 1>my aunt uncle in the wood panel the blue shag

0:11:44.040 --> 0:11:46.880
<v Speaker 1>carpeted reck room of our basement. I'm the same age

0:11:46.920 --> 0:11:50.959
<v Speaker 1>as you, so that means you're old as hell. Uh,

0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:56.680
<v Speaker 1>Debbie Ranka, my friend The Shining, Debbie, I did not

0:11:56.800 --> 0:11:58.720
<v Speaker 1>know that this movie stayed with you, but that doesn't

0:11:58.720 --> 0:12:00.839
<v Speaker 1>surprise me about you. My parents went out for the

0:12:00.880 --> 0:12:04.120
<v Speaker 1>evening and told me my parents, my parents, I know

0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:06.199
<v Speaker 1>your parents. They went out for the evening and told

0:12:06.240 --> 0:12:09.160
<v Speaker 1>me I could watch anything on television except for The Shining,

0:12:09.720 --> 0:12:11.360
<v Speaker 1>So of course I watched it. That is so you.

0:12:11.720 --> 0:12:14.120
<v Speaker 1>I was terrified and couldn't sleep for two days. Also

0:12:14.200 --> 0:12:15.760
<v Speaker 1>couldn't admit to my parents while I was afraid to

0:12:15.760 --> 0:12:18.280
<v Speaker 1>go to sleep. Ah, that is also so you. I

0:12:18.320 --> 0:12:21.480
<v Speaker 1>love that, Debbie, and I'm glad you're listening. Nathan David,

0:12:21.480 --> 0:12:24.400
<v Speaker 1>the first paralnormal Activity movie is the only movie to

0:12:24.440 --> 0:12:26.240
<v Speaker 1>truly scared me to the point of running inside and

0:12:26.240 --> 0:12:29.200
<v Speaker 1>shutting the door behind me. My girlfriend, that's hers, she said,

0:12:29.280 --> 0:12:31.880
<v Speaker 1>she totally I rolled about about it going in, but

0:12:31.920 --> 0:12:34.000
<v Speaker 1>then it like freaked her out to the point of

0:12:34.600 --> 0:12:37.120
<v Speaker 1>behaving in a certain way after it was over. Yeah,

0:12:37.120 --> 0:12:42.120
<v Speaker 1>there's something about a movie that literally makes your bedroom

0:12:42.200 --> 0:12:44.720
<v Speaker 1>this scary place and going to sleep scary. That's because

0:12:44.720 --> 0:12:48.720
<v Speaker 1>that's supposed to be your safe place. Well done, paranormal activity.

0:12:48.840 --> 0:12:50.800
<v Speaker 1>I think I saw that first one, but none of

0:12:50.800 --> 0:12:52.600
<v Speaker 1>the other ones. There's like nine of them or something.

0:12:52.600 --> 0:12:57.120
<v Speaker 1>I think keep that cash tr en rolling Laura Laura Dickinson.

0:12:57.280 --> 0:12:59.640
<v Speaker 1>The Hills Have Eyes. Yeah, that's a good one. I

0:12:59.640 --> 0:13:02.200
<v Speaker 1>went him after seeing at a friend's house, but I

0:13:02.280 --> 0:13:03.880
<v Speaker 1>was home alone and freaked out and had to call

0:13:03.920 --> 0:13:07.120
<v Speaker 1>my friends mom to pick me back up because I

0:13:07.120 --> 0:13:09.040
<v Speaker 1>didn't know when my parents would come home. That is

0:13:09.160 --> 0:13:13.480
<v Speaker 1>very sweet. Jesse Kidder Silent Hill. Never saw it, but

0:13:13.559 --> 0:13:16.520
<v Speaker 1>that video game is scary. The siren used in the

0:13:16.559 --> 0:13:20.160
<v Speaker 1>movies is very similar as many weather sirens around here.

0:13:20.240 --> 0:13:22.160
<v Speaker 1>It's not often that I hear it, but every time

0:13:22.160 --> 0:13:25.320
<v Speaker 1>I do, I'm immediately taken back to Silent Hill, and

0:13:25.360 --> 0:13:30.280
<v Speaker 1>it's terrifyingly awesome. Jody Neville or Neville, Sorry, Jody's around

0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:32.080
<v Speaker 1>on the page a lot. I think for me it

0:13:32.120 --> 0:13:34.640
<v Speaker 1>was The Creeping Flesh. Did not see this one, an

0:13:34.640 --> 0:13:37.679
<v Speaker 1>old British movie starring Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee. Well,

0:13:37.960 --> 0:13:40.760
<v Speaker 1>Christopher Lee is that's all you need to say. Very

0:13:40.800 --> 0:13:43.520
<v Speaker 1>scary looking, dude. I bet this is one our buddies

0:13:43.600 --> 0:13:46.040
<v Speaker 1>Joe McCormick and Robert lamb over a stuff to blow

0:13:46.080 --> 0:13:48.480
<v Speaker 1>your mind, would know about their their buffs of the

0:13:48.520 --> 0:13:51.080
<v Speaker 1>older schlocky weird horse. Yeah, I'm trying to see. I

0:13:51.120 --> 0:13:53.600
<v Speaker 1>bet you Robert has a comment in here. Uh, let's

0:13:53.600 --> 0:13:58.000
<v Speaker 1>see here. Um. Brendan Majetski twilights on the movie. Oh

0:13:58.040 --> 0:14:00.720
<v Speaker 1>you know what, dude, that one scared me towards because

0:14:00.720 --> 0:14:03.280
<v Speaker 1>I was the perfect age to be creeped out by

0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:04.880
<v Speaker 1>that movie. It's not the one where like a bunch

0:14:04.920 --> 0:14:09.400
<v Speaker 1>of people died in the helicopter or something that three

0:14:09.440 --> 0:14:13.720
<v Speaker 1>people died Vic Morrow, Jennifer Jason Lee's father, uh died

0:14:13.800 --> 0:14:18.000
<v Speaker 1>on a on a set with with two young Vietnamese.

0:14:18.160 --> 0:14:23.320
<v Speaker 1>I believe they're Vietnamese kids. Um, they were decapitated in

0:14:23.400 --> 0:14:27.120
<v Speaker 1>a John Landis went to court. It was. Yeah, one

0:14:27.120 --> 0:14:29.960
<v Speaker 1>of the more horrifying stories of all time. When people say,

0:14:29.960 --> 0:14:32.640
<v Speaker 1>I like that movie is cursed or something like that, Yeah, man,

0:14:32.800 --> 0:14:36.480
<v Speaker 1>it was. I wouldn't recommend it, but you can actually

0:14:36.520 --> 0:14:39.840
<v Speaker 1>go see the original footage of that, and it's and

0:14:39.960 --> 0:14:42.680
<v Speaker 1>the cameras way far back, so it's not some close up,

0:14:43.120 --> 0:14:44.960
<v Speaker 1>but they slow it down and you can see the

0:14:45.000 --> 0:14:48.440
<v Speaker 1>helicopter blade coming down and Mike heads popping off. Yea,

0:14:49.160 --> 0:14:53.000
<v Speaker 1>again not recommended, um, but anyway, Twilight Zone for Brandon,

0:14:53.040 --> 0:14:54.760
<v Speaker 1>that particularly the grimlin on the wing of the plane

0:14:55.080 --> 0:14:57.760
<v Speaker 1>and John Lithgow's segment. I was seven years old at

0:14:57.800 --> 0:15:02.080
<v Speaker 1>a friend's house and it was terrifying. Agreed, Crystal South.

0:15:02.160 --> 0:15:04.040
<v Speaker 1>The nineteen seventy two version of The Last House on

0:15:04.080 --> 0:15:07.440
<v Speaker 1>the Left was way too young and it was horrifying. Yeah,

0:15:07.600 --> 0:15:11.480
<v Speaker 1>that's uh, that's not one for the faint of heart. Uh,

0:15:12.120 --> 0:15:15.280
<v Speaker 1>Trish Wallace Trilogy of Terror. The scene with the knife

0:15:15.360 --> 0:15:17.760
<v Speaker 1>still makes me uncomfortable. I don't even know what that means,

0:15:17.800 --> 0:15:19.400
<v Speaker 1>but scene with the knife is all you gotta say.

0:15:20.920 --> 0:15:23.800
<v Speaker 1>Nicole Park's The Ring was absolutely the first movie to

0:15:23.880 --> 0:15:28.520
<v Speaker 1>leave me feeling uneasy afterward. Yeah. That was a spooky one. Yeah.

0:15:28.600 --> 0:15:31.480
<v Speaker 1>That was a good one too, and well made, you know,

0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:35.560
<v Speaker 1>really really better than the original. I have to say

0:15:35.600 --> 0:15:38.480
<v Speaker 1>the American remake was scarier than the original. I don't

0:15:38.480 --> 0:15:40.680
<v Speaker 1>think I saw Ring goo. Yeah, I think the American

0:15:41.160 --> 0:15:45.920
<v Speaker 1>is better Kate Bagot the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I didn't

0:15:45.920 --> 0:15:48.000
<v Speaker 1>sleep for about a week and kept thinking of saw

0:15:48.080 --> 0:15:51.560
<v Speaker 1>leather Face hiding in the bushes. Oh, my dear lord,

0:15:51.880 --> 0:15:55.040
<v Speaker 1>I can't imagine. I don't I don't know if I

0:15:55.080 --> 0:15:57.280
<v Speaker 1>ever have even seen that original movie, come to think

0:15:57.320 --> 0:15:59.320
<v Speaker 1>of it. Oh, and here we go. Look at this,

0:15:59.360 --> 0:16:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Joe mccarmick and Robert Lamb. That's great, Joe said, I'd

0:16:02.720 --> 0:16:04.400
<v Speaker 1>like to be able to name a great horror movie,

0:16:04.600 --> 0:16:06.600
<v Speaker 1>but I think the true answer is probably River of Death,

0:16:07.320 --> 0:16:11.480
<v Speaker 1>which is an unsanitary cannon film slog starring Michael Dudakov

0:16:11.840 --> 0:16:14.880
<v Speaker 1>as jungle adventure man Donald Pleasants is a creepy, soft

0:16:14.880 --> 0:16:18.720
<v Speaker 1>spoken Nazi. Uh. And then of course I printed this

0:16:18.720 --> 0:16:20.320
<v Speaker 1>out from Facebook, and there's more to it that I

0:16:20.360 --> 0:16:23.200
<v Speaker 1>can't see. Yea, but exactly that's the kind of stuff

0:16:23.240 --> 0:16:25.520
<v Speaker 1>those dudes that are in love with well, Robert said

0:16:25.520 --> 0:16:28.120
<v Speaker 1>Poulter guys. Uh watched it way too young and on

0:16:28.240 --> 0:16:31.440
<v Speaker 1>my aunt's VHS tape. She'd ripped a bunch of films

0:16:31.440 --> 0:16:34.960
<v Speaker 1>off of HBO, and I think this was one following

0:16:35.000 --> 0:16:42.760
<v Speaker 1>some cartoons that's got a creepy clown Uh. Yeah, there's

0:16:42.760 --> 0:16:45.320
<v Speaker 1>a clown doll, which is almost even scarier than a clown.

0:16:45.760 --> 0:16:47.760
<v Speaker 1>I love that. Robert sounds like he was almost duped

0:16:47.760 --> 0:16:50.760
<v Speaker 1>into watching it after cartoons. Uh, and we'll finish up

0:16:50.800 --> 0:16:53.840
<v Speaker 1>here with mikels Are what's up, Mike? I know, Mike.

0:16:54.400 --> 0:16:56.320
<v Speaker 1>One of the nightmare on Elm Streets. I can't even

0:16:56.320 --> 0:16:59.400
<v Speaker 1>say which one. I couldn't go into long dark hallways

0:16:59.440 --> 0:17:04.280
<v Speaker 1>without quake for years afterwards. That's right, because one to

0:17:04.720 --> 0:17:08.800
<v Speaker 1>Freddy's coming for you. This little girls. That the scariest

0:17:08.840 --> 0:17:10.840
<v Speaker 1>part for me. That's that stuck with me. When she

0:17:10.880 --> 0:17:14.159
<v Speaker 1>gets pulled through the the door wind, the tiny window

0:17:14.200 --> 0:17:16.440
<v Speaker 1>at the end, it was very violent. It wasn't like

0:17:16.920 --> 0:17:18.840
<v Speaker 1>it was all herkey jerky and like you knew she

0:17:18.840 --> 0:17:22.480
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't fit through there. Yeah, it was very creepy. Magical

0:17:22.560 --> 0:17:25.680
<v Speaker 1>realism is apparently what that is, I really, I mean,

0:17:25.720 --> 0:17:28.560
<v Speaker 1>just the idea of like something that nonsensical happens. Like

0:17:28.640 --> 0:17:31.440
<v Speaker 1>she didn't explode into like this ra She just kind

0:17:31.440 --> 0:17:34.720
<v Speaker 1>of magically popped through there, you know, inexplicably because of

0:17:34.720 --> 0:17:44.640
<v Speaker 1>the magic of of Freddy. All right, everybody, we're gonna

0:17:44.680 --> 0:17:47.680
<v Speaker 1>move on to a segment of recommended viewing, and as

0:17:47.720 --> 0:17:50.639
<v Speaker 1>you know, when I do recommended viewing, I do a

0:17:50.680 --> 0:17:55.440
<v Speaker 1>foreign film, a documentary, and an independent film. And for

0:17:55.440 --> 0:17:57.600
<v Speaker 1>foreign film not born in the USA, I'm going to

0:17:57.720 --> 0:18:00.960
<v Speaker 1>go with City of God from two thousand to UH,

0:18:01.000 --> 0:18:05.040
<v Speaker 1>the Brazilian film. It's a I guess I mean, I

0:18:05.040 --> 0:18:08.000
<v Speaker 1>think online they classified as a crime drama, but it's

0:18:08.000 --> 0:18:12.359
<v Speaker 1>really sort of more like just gritty realism life on

0:18:12.400 --> 0:18:14.760
<v Speaker 1>the streets. UH tells the story of the rise of

0:18:14.800 --> 0:18:18.040
<v Speaker 1>crime to through about a twenty year period in a

0:18:18.080 --> 0:18:21.520
<v Speaker 1>housing project in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, you know, the

0:18:21.560 --> 0:18:25.600
<v Speaker 1>outskirts of Rio. UH nominated for four Oscars Director, which

0:18:25.680 --> 0:18:28.800
<v Speaker 1>was and is still pretty unusual for a foreign film

0:18:28.840 --> 0:18:33.400
<v Speaker 1>to be nominated for Best Director, Cinematography, Editing, and Adapted Screenplay.

0:18:34.119 --> 0:18:37.000
<v Speaker 1>And it's about as hard hitting as a movie as

0:18:37.080 --> 0:18:41.320
<v Speaker 1>you can imagine seeing UH, and especially for like a

0:18:41.400 --> 0:18:46.280
<v Speaker 1>white suburban dude in Georgia. UH. It was a a

0:18:46.359 --> 0:18:49.760
<v Speaker 1>face punch of reality to what it's like in some

0:18:49.800 --> 0:18:52.639
<v Speaker 1>parts of the world, UH, compared to the little, cooshy

0:18:52.720 --> 0:18:54.800
<v Speaker 1>life that I grew up with. UH. It's it's one

0:18:54.840 --> 0:18:58.239
<v Speaker 1>of those good movies to give you some perspective on things. UM.

0:18:58.280 --> 0:19:01.040
<v Speaker 1>And also just a really well made, awsome, some awesome movie.

0:19:01.440 --> 0:19:03.880
<v Speaker 1>So City of God all you've seen that or from sure, Yeah,

0:19:04.200 --> 0:19:06.320
<v Speaker 1>it's definitely got that gritty realism. It's got a little

0:19:06.320 --> 0:19:08.560
<v Speaker 1>bit of stylization to it, like it almost has some

0:19:08.640 --> 0:19:12.399
<v Speaker 1>of that Tarantino like zippy editing or whatever. But um,

0:19:12.440 --> 0:19:14.679
<v Speaker 1>that's not really like the feature. It's really just the

0:19:14.760 --> 0:19:17.760
<v Speaker 1>characters and like Rocket, Yeah, that was so good, so

0:19:17.840 --> 0:19:21.320
<v Speaker 1>so good. I think he made a multi part TV

0:19:21.800 --> 0:19:25.720
<v Speaker 1>miniseries that was kind of based on that later called

0:19:25.760 --> 0:19:29.000
<v Speaker 1>I think it's called City of Men. I saw something

0:19:29.000 --> 0:19:31.240
<v Speaker 1>about that. Is that what it is? I think it is? Yeah,

0:19:31.359 --> 0:19:33.120
<v Speaker 1>so I haven't seen that, but I bet it's great.

0:19:33.320 --> 0:19:36.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm gotta check that up. Then, documentary I'm gonna go

0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:40.800
<v Speaker 1>with Winnebago Man from two thousand nine, directed by Ben Steinbauer. Um,

0:19:40.880 --> 0:19:44.480
<v Speaker 1>this is the story of Jack Rebney and Jack Redney

0:19:44.800 --> 0:19:50.560
<v Speaker 1>was a Winnebago salesman and jeez, I wanted to say eighties.

0:19:51.680 --> 0:19:54.400
<v Speaker 1>I think it's from the eighties or maybe early nineties

0:19:54.560 --> 0:20:00.160
<v Speaker 1>where he did these local TV commercials. And the way

0:20:00.200 --> 0:20:05.240
<v Speaker 1>the story goes is is someone eventually posted the behind

0:20:05.280 --> 0:20:10.280
<v Speaker 1>the scenes outtakes of shooting these local TV commercials selling

0:20:10.359 --> 0:20:14.119
<v Speaker 1>these winnebagos onto YouTube, and it became a viral sensation

0:20:14.640 --> 0:20:18.600
<v Speaker 1>because Jack Redney was henceforth known as the Angriest Man Alive.

0:20:19.240 --> 0:20:23.480
<v Speaker 1>The outtakes are all Redney, um cursing out the crew,

0:20:24.040 --> 0:20:27.679
<v Speaker 1>angry about everything from the heat to the flies to

0:20:27.800 --> 0:20:30.680
<v Speaker 1>the script. Uh. And it's really really funny to see

0:20:30.680 --> 0:20:32.840
<v Speaker 1>this dude melting down over and over. And I think

0:20:32.880 --> 0:20:35.600
<v Speaker 1>it's just like a shoot over the course of a

0:20:35.680 --> 0:20:38.399
<v Speaker 1>couple of days that they called all these outtakes, right,

0:20:38.480 --> 0:20:43.280
<v Speaker 1>I just remember a kutramm. He has a real problem

0:20:43.320 --> 0:20:46.280
<v Speaker 1>with that word in the script. It's it's delightful and

0:20:46.320 --> 0:20:48.399
<v Speaker 1>it's a great story. I mean, they've they've tracked this

0:20:48.440 --> 0:20:50.919
<v Speaker 1>guy down. He's got a really interesting backstory. It's got

0:20:50.960 --> 0:20:53.000
<v Speaker 1>a lot of heart to it. Like it's a great film,

0:20:53.560 --> 0:20:57.280
<v Speaker 1>hilarious because he's not the Angriest Man Alive and he

0:20:57.280 --> 0:20:58.680
<v Speaker 1>he had a lot of the issues with the fact

0:20:58.760 --> 0:21:00.720
<v Speaker 1>that that's what he became known for. It. But we

0:21:00.760 --> 0:21:02.720
<v Speaker 1>won't give it away, but it kind of comes full circle,

0:21:02.800 --> 0:21:04.680
<v Speaker 1>like you said, and has a has a lovely ending

0:21:05.280 --> 0:21:08.080
<v Speaker 1>when they finally find him. Uh. And of course since then,

0:21:08.080 --> 0:21:11.400
<v Speaker 1>the phrase do me a kindness has sort of swept

0:21:11.880 --> 0:21:13.680
<v Speaker 1>swept the land. I try to work it in. I've

0:21:13.680 --> 0:21:15.919
<v Speaker 1>said it on stuff you should know before. But instead

0:21:15.920 --> 0:21:17.920
<v Speaker 1>of like do me a favor, Jack Rebney said, do

0:21:17.960 --> 0:21:20.320
<v Speaker 1>me a kindness, but it's a sort of stat of anger.

0:21:20.440 --> 0:21:22.560
<v Speaker 1>It's sort of like, you know, you are really inconvenient

0:21:22.640 --> 0:21:25.199
<v Speaker 1>to do me a kindness and quit jerking me around,

0:21:25.320 --> 0:21:28.560
<v Speaker 1>you know. Uh. And and definitely like even if you

0:21:28.560 --> 0:21:30.600
<v Speaker 1>can't get winnebego man right away, just go to go

0:21:30.680 --> 0:21:33.760
<v Speaker 1>to YouTube and and type in Jack Rebini, R E

0:21:33.880 --> 0:21:37.080
<v Speaker 1>P and E Y and just be delighted. And finally,

0:21:37.160 --> 0:21:41.359
<v Speaker 1>my independent recommendation, which I'm I'm now calling Independence Day.

0:21:42.080 --> 0:21:46.040
<v Speaker 1>It's every day chuck as in D E N t Apostrophes.

0:21:47.359 --> 0:21:49.719
<v Speaker 1>It looks more clever on the beach. I'm going with

0:21:49.760 --> 0:21:52.480
<v Speaker 1>all the real girls. And I'm just now realizing this

0:21:52.560 --> 0:21:57.200
<v Speaker 1>is uh my second recommendation out of two that are

0:21:57.840 --> 0:22:03.640
<v Speaker 1>um independent romance dramatic romances, because I did um spectacular now,

0:22:04.480 --> 0:22:06.680
<v Speaker 1>so I guess I gotta thing for that for love

0:22:06.720 --> 0:22:09.280
<v Speaker 1>stories told well look at me. Uh. This is from

0:22:09.280 --> 0:22:12.960
<v Speaker 1>two thousand three. It was the second to movie from

0:22:13.400 --> 0:22:17.359
<v Speaker 1>David Gordon Green, who wrote and directed it. His first movie,

0:22:17.600 --> 0:22:21.159
<v Speaker 1>also highly recommend, called George Washington was his first feature,

0:22:21.960 --> 0:22:25.320
<v Speaker 1>and he went on I think his third was called Undertow,

0:22:25.400 --> 0:22:27.320
<v Speaker 1>which was great, and then there was a fourth it

0:22:27.400 --> 0:22:30.679
<v Speaker 1>was another kind of gritty uh indie, and then he

0:22:31.760 --> 0:22:36.480
<v Speaker 1>and probably dove into comedy in a in a strange

0:22:36.560 --> 0:22:40.560
<v Speaker 1>left turn of his career and directed Pineapple Express and

0:22:40.720 --> 0:22:44.359
<v Speaker 1>The Sitter that the Babysitter movie, and it really went

0:22:44.480 --> 0:22:46.359
<v Speaker 1>kind of whacking, and he started directing all these different

0:22:46.400 --> 0:22:48.680
<v Speaker 1>kinds of movies. And now David Gordon Green is actually

0:22:48.720 --> 0:22:51.000
<v Speaker 1>directing the New Halloween movie. Have you heard about that

0:22:51.040 --> 0:22:53.439
<v Speaker 1>one yet? I just saw it on Wikipedia just now

0:22:53.480 --> 0:22:55.000
<v Speaker 1>as I was looking at this guy's resume up and

0:22:55.160 --> 0:22:57.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm not familiar with him at all. Well, the story is, um,

0:22:57.680 --> 0:23:00.480
<v Speaker 1>the new with the New Halloween is Danny McBride, who

0:23:00.680 --> 0:23:02.919
<v Speaker 1>he well, I want to say, discovered he was a

0:23:02.920 --> 0:23:05.720
<v Speaker 1>friend of his. And Danny McBride was in George Washington

0:23:05.800 --> 0:23:08.240
<v Speaker 1>and All the Real Girls and they were his first movies,

0:23:08.600 --> 0:23:12.040
<v Speaker 1>long before he was known as Danny McBride. But Danny

0:23:12.080 --> 0:23:14.320
<v Speaker 1>McBride co wrote the New Halloween with him, and what

0:23:14.359 --> 0:23:19.119
<v Speaker 1>they've done is basically ignored every movie that came after

0:23:19.720 --> 0:23:22.600
<v Speaker 1>the First Halloween, and this is a direct, forty years

0:23:22.640 --> 0:23:25.040
<v Speaker 1>later sequel to the First Halloween. I think ignoring most

0:23:25.080 --> 0:23:27.920
<v Speaker 1>of those movies is probably a smart choice, although I

0:23:27.960 --> 0:23:29.800
<v Speaker 1>really like the one that doesn't have Michael Myers in

0:23:29.840 --> 0:23:31.920
<v Speaker 1>it at all. Season of the Witch. It's really dumb

0:23:31.920 --> 0:23:34.920
<v Speaker 1>and absurd, but it's no one likes that. It's fun.

0:23:35.040 --> 0:23:37.680
<v Speaker 1>I know, you know, Joe and Robert really like it.

0:23:37.880 --> 0:23:40.600
<v Speaker 1>And it has an amazing John Carpenter he synth soundtrack,

0:23:40.640 --> 0:23:44.200
<v Speaker 1>which is my thing. And it's just a dumb, schlocky

0:23:44.520 --> 0:23:47.359
<v Speaker 1>seventies movie that has nothing to do with Michael Myers,

0:23:47.400 --> 0:23:50.520
<v Speaker 1>which I just like that. That's very pal. I don't know. Yeah,

0:23:50.600 --> 0:23:53.040
<v Speaker 1>by the way, everyone Noll does the music for this show,

0:23:53.080 --> 0:23:54.240
<v Speaker 1>and I know I say it at the end, but

0:23:54.359 --> 0:23:56.240
<v Speaker 1>people might not hang around. And I went to Know

0:23:56.280 --> 0:23:58.880
<v Speaker 1>at the beginning, because I know he's a a sent guru,

0:23:59.320 --> 0:24:01.520
<v Speaker 1>and said, hey, I'm kind of looking for something eighties

0:24:01.960 --> 0:24:05.000
<v Speaker 1>horror movie ish John Carpenter, and he just sort of

0:24:05.040 --> 0:24:07.879
<v Speaker 1>like nodded his head like, don't you worry. I'm more

0:24:07.920 --> 0:24:10.400
<v Speaker 1>of an enthusiast than a guru. Chuck. But you're very kind,

0:24:11.359 --> 0:24:13.400
<v Speaker 1>So all the real girls. Back to that um two

0:24:13.400 --> 0:24:17.680
<v Speaker 1>thousand three second feature film, another romantic drama. It's a

0:24:17.760 --> 0:24:20.879
<v Speaker 1>story of a guy future movie. Crush guest because I

0:24:20.960 --> 0:24:24.040
<v Speaker 1>just heard from the great Paul Schneider last night that

0:24:24.240 --> 0:24:27.239
<v Speaker 1>I booked him for New York City when I go there. Uh.

0:24:27.359 --> 0:24:30.080
<v Speaker 1>Paul is a great dude, and I've gotten to know

0:24:30.160 --> 0:24:32.520
<v Speaker 1>him a little bit through the years via email, and

0:24:32.760 --> 0:24:34.840
<v Speaker 1>uh I met a couple of times. You can do

0:24:34.880 --> 0:24:36.800
<v Speaker 1>a stuff you should know show in New York. It's

0:24:36.840 --> 0:24:41.360
<v Speaker 1>just a great guy. He um. Weirdly, he's probably best

0:24:41.400 --> 0:24:43.800
<v Speaker 1>known for being on a couple of seasons of Parks

0:24:43.800 --> 0:24:47.760
<v Speaker 1>and Wreck, which there's nothing like TV to put you

0:24:47.800 --> 0:24:50.240
<v Speaker 1>on the map, especially a big hit like that. I

0:24:50.600 --> 0:24:52.240
<v Speaker 1>jumping off of the success of the Office and that

0:24:52.240 --> 0:24:54.560
<v Speaker 1>show just nailed that tone and kind of took it

0:24:54.640 --> 0:24:57.160
<v Speaker 1>new places. Well. I loved the Parks and Wreck, but um,

0:24:57.200 --> 0:25:01.640
<v Speaker 1>Paul is just uh he he's better than that. Oh

0:25:01.640 --> 0:25:03.199
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure, no, but I that's that's where I know

0:25:03.280 --> 0:25:05.080
<v Speaker 1>him from. But that sounds mean to say. Parking Wreck

0:25:05.119 --> 0:25:06.440
<v Speaker 1>was great. I don't want to slag it at all,

0:25:06.680 --> 0:25:09.600
<v Speaker 1>but but he was in one of my other favorite movies,

0:25:09.680 --> 0:25:13.359
<v Speaker 1>The Assassination of Jesse James Um and he's just a

0:25:13.400 --> 0:25:15.720
<v Speaker 1>really good guy and a great actor. So Paulo's in

0:25:15.720 --> 0:25:17.160
<v Speaker 1>New York, he's gonna be on the show. And he

0:25:17.600 --> 0:25:20.639
<v Speaker 1>starred in All the Real Girls as a kind of

0:25:20.640 --> 0:25:24.959
<v Speaker 1>a the womanizer, get around guy in this small southern

0:25:25.000 --> 0:25:29.520
<v Speaker 1>town with his group of buds, including the aforementioned Danny

0:25:29.560 --> 0:25:35.600
<v Speaker 1>Masterson and uh, the great great Shay Wigham, who you

0:25:36.000 --> 0:25:37.719
<v Speaker 1>probably don't know by name, but if you look up

0:25:37.720 --> 0:25:40.440
<v Speaker 1>Shay character actor, he's in a lot of the David

0:25:40.440 --> 0:25:44.240
<v Speaker 1>Gordon Green movies and he's just terrific. And Schneider starts

0:25:44.359 --> 0:25:48.320
<v Speaker 1>dating his his friend's younger sister when she comes on

0:25:48.400 --> 0:25:52.719
<v Speaker 1>from boarding school, who was a very young Zoe Deschanelle

0:25:52.800 --> 0:25:55.280
<v Speaker 1>one of her first movies and maybe her first I'm

0:25:55.280 --> 0:25:59.280
<v Speaker 1>not quite sure, but obviously this causes friction with the

0:25:59.400 --> 0:26:03.040
<v Speaker 1>with the brother and the best friend. And Zoe Deschanel's

0:26:03.119 --> 0:26:06.600
<v Speaker 1>character is um as a virgin and he does not

0:26:06.800 --> 0:26:11.919
<v Speaker 1>want his womanizing friend uh dating his younger virgin sister,

0:26:12.119 --> 0:26:14.439
<v Speaker 1>of course, but they fall in love and it's like

0:26:14.440 --> 0:26:17.800
<v Speaker 1>a real romance and very much It won the Special

0:26:17.880 --> 0:26:20.800
<v Speaker 1>Jury Prize at Sundance and it very much recalls early

0:26:21.040 --> 0:26:25.440
<v Speaker 1>Terence Malick, very poetic, dreamy feel. Uh and and at

0:26:25.440 --> 0:26:27.359
<v Speaker 1>the time I was like, David Gordon Green, He's he

0:26:27.480 --> 0:26:30.199
<v Speaker 1>is the next Terrence Malick, because George Washington had the

0:26:30.240 --> 0:26:33.560
<v Speaker 1>same feel and he was clearly influenced by him. And

0:26:33.640 --> 0:26:35.480
<v Speaker 1>I think Malick even went on to produce one of

0:26:35.480 --> 0:26:38.359
<v Speaker 1>his next movies. That's why it was so weird to

0:26:38.480 --> 0:26:41.040
<v Speaker 1>me when David Gordon Green took all these turns in

0:26:41.080 --> 0:26:44.680
<v Speaker 1>his career to do wacky comedies and now horror. But uh,

0:26:44.760 --> 0:26:46.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, he's branching out. It's so good for him.

0:26:47.200 --> 0:26:49.760
<v Speaker 1>It's just a real, great romance, a real love story,

0:26:50.280 --> 0:26:54.040
<v Speaker 1>very realistic, all the ups and downs and and pathos

0:26:54.080 --> 0:26:59.120
<v Speaker 1>of relationships at that age. Highly recommended, all the Real Girls,

0:27:00.200 --> 0:27:02.679
<v Speaker 1>and it's weird. Paul Schneider was also in Lars and

0:27:02.760 --> 0:27:07.160
<v Speaker 1>The Real Girl. That's right. He plays the the brother

0:27:07.600 --> 0:27:11.359
<v Speaker 1>to to uh face, the handsome most handsome an alife

0:27:12.600 --> 0:27:15.040
<v Speaker 1>Rye Rye, which that the real girl. That one is

0:27:15.119 --> 0:27:19.040
<v Speaker 1>like a sex doll. Yes, great movie though, yeah, very cool.

0:27:19.080 --> 0:27:22.360
<v Speaker 1>We were talking about Anama Lisa being so real as

0:27:22.359 --> 0:27:25.040
<v Speaker 1>a stop motion picture. A couple of weeks ago and

0:27:25.040 --> 0:27:27.679
<v Speaker 1>and Lars and the Real Girl has one of the

0:27:27.720 --> 0:27:29.520
<v Speaker 1>best love stories, and it's between a guy and a

0:27:29.600 --> 0:27:32.399
<v Speaker 1>sex doll. Doesn't sound like it would work on paper.

0:27:32.480 --> 0:27:37.480
<v Speaker 1>Takes all kinds and casting around costling. It's like, what

0:27:37.560 --> 0:27:39.919
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna guss him to play a guy that is

0:27:40.400 --> 0:27:43.600
<v Speaker 1>removed and can only have a relationship with a with

0:27:43.640 --> 0:27:46.040
<v Speaker 1>a blow up doll? And I say blow up dollar.

0:27:46.080 --> 0:27:48.480
<v Speaker 1>They aren't blow up dolls. They're very expensive, Chuck, I'm

0:27:48.480 --> 0:27:58.080
<v Speaker 1>sure they are all right. So now we move on

0:27:58.160 --> 0:28:02.600
<v Speaker 1>to our our final cup with segments stream this and

0:28:02.720 --> 0:28:05.680
<v Speaker 1>comment card which our listener mails. Stream this. I will

0:28:05.680 --> 0:28:07.800
<v Speaker 1>talk about something that Emily and I have watched lately

0:28:08.240 --> 0:28:11.280
<v Speaker 1>on TV, and I am going to go with Better

0:28:11.359 --> 0:28:16.560
<v Speaker 1>Things season two. This stars the great Pamela ad Lawn,

0:28:17.800 --> 0:28:21.200
<v Speaker 1>who I have the biggest crush on. Uh so does Emily.

0:28:21.280 --> 0:28:25.040
<v Speaker 1>We both do. She's so wonderful, she writes, She produces,

0:28:25.080 --> 0:28:28.919
<v Speaker 1>she directed every episode, which again is so rare to

0:28:28.960 --> 0:28:31.920
<v Speaker 1>see a woman given the reins of of a show

0:28:31.960 --> 0:28:36.320
<v Speaker 1>like this these days. Um. It is a little problematic

0:28:36.760 --> 0:28:39.680
<v Speaker 1>in that Louis c k started the show with her,

0:28:39.840 --> 0:28:44.240
<v Speaker 1>and he and Pamela are old friends. And um he

0:28:44.240 --> 0:28:47.200
<v Speaker 1>he writes a lot of these episodes and produced the show.

0:28:47.720 --> 0:28:50.920
<v Speaker 1>But I don't want to, Um, I don't want to

0:28:50.920 --> 0:28:53.840
<v Speaker 1>hold that against Pamela ad Laon because she does such

0:28:53.840 --> 0:28:55.760
<v Speaker 1>a great job on the show, and it would be

0:28:55.840 --> 0:28:58.080
<v Speaker 1>unfair to say, well, I'm not going to support this

0:28:58.120 --> 0:29:00.080
<v Speaker 1>because Louis c K had his fingerprints on it, know

0:29:00.120 --> 0:29:03.080
<v Speaker 1>what I mean. Such a tough situation with all that stuff.

0:29:03.240 --> 0:29:05.280
<v Speaker 1>I know some of it's so cut and dry, but

0:29:05.400 --> 0:29:09.040
<v Speaker 1>like this conversation of art versus the artists is more

0:29:09.120 --> 0:29:13.160
<v Speaker 1>front and center now I think that, Yeah, it's really

0:29:13.240 --> 0:29:15.640
<v Speaker 1>really everyone is having to take a good hard look

0:29:15.640 --> 0:29:18.600
<v Speaker 1>at uh themselves and the kind of art they support

0:29:18.640 --> 0:29:22.120
<v Speaker 1>these days. So anyway, Better Things is great. Pamela Adlon

0:29:22.280 --> 0:29:25.920
<v Speaker 1>is wonderful. It's about a middle aged actress, a single

0:29:25.960 --> 0:29:30.080
<v Speaker 1>mother of three girls. Um her her looney British mom

0:29:30.120 --> 0:29:33.440
<v Speaker 1>lives across the street. Uh, and it's just just great.

0:29:33.560 --> 0:29:37.959
<v Speaker 1>It's funny, it's warm, full of heart, has a message

0:29:37.960 --> 0:29:42.080
<v Speaker 1>of family overall, warts and all, and that's just my

0:29:42.200 --> 0:29:44.680
<v Speaker 1>kind of story. I'm such a sucker for these real

0:29:44.760 --> 0:29:48.160
<v Speaker 1>shows like that, um that that aren't sappy, but just

0:29:48.160 --> 0:29:51.000
<v Speaker 1>show the real ins and outs of a family life

0:29:51.120 --> 0:29:54.680
<v Speaker 1>and she's just so funny. It's great. She was on

0:29:55.080 --> 0:29:59.560
<v Speaker 1>she played Louie's wife in the original Lucky Louie sitcom,

0:29:59.600 --> 0:30:01.440
<v Speaker 1>which was I thought was great, but it's a weird

0:30:01.480 --> 0:30:03.400
<v Speaker 1>show for people. I liked it too. It was it

0:30:03.440 --> 0:30:05.360
<v Speaker 1>was a little the whole laugh track sit Commy thing

0:30:05.440 --> 0:30:07.840
<v Speaker 1>was was a little awesome thing. She's I know her

0:30:07.840 --> 0:30:09.920
<v Speaker 1>in love for most for being the voice of Bobby Hill,

0:30:10.080 --> 0:30:12.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm King of the Hill. Of course, she has a

0:30:12.080 --> 0:30:15.720
<v Speaker 1>great and in better things. She is largely a voice actor.

0:30:16.280 --> 0:30:20.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's kind of autobiographical largely, but um. She

0:30:20.680 --> 0:30:24.520
<v Speaker 1>also for say Anything fans. She had a very small

0:30:24.600 --> 0:30:28.560
<v Speaker 1>part when she was very young as one of John

0:30:28.680 --> 0:30:32.360
<v Speaker 1>Cusack's buddies. There's that scene in the music Store and

0:30:32.400 --> 0:30:36.080
<v Speaker 1>the Guitar Store where John Cusack is walking around strumming

0:30:36.120 --> 0:30:39.360
<v Speaker 1>on a Gibson s G and she plays one of

0:30:39.360 --> 0:30:42.560
<v Speaker 1>the two girls in there that he's talking about Ione

0:30:42.560 --> 0:30:46.400
<v Speaker 1>Sky with um. So that's just a little shout to

0:30:46.440 --> 0:30:49.480
<v Speaker 1>one of her early cameos. And then she was also

0:30:49.560 --> 0:30:53.000
<v Speaker 1>on Louise Show as well, playing a his good friend

0:30:53.080 --> 0:30:56.440
<v Speaker 1>and some and almost love interest over the years. So

0:30:56.720 --> 0:30:58.960
<v Speaker 1>Pamela Adlon is great. She was nominated for a Golden

0:30:58.960 --> 0:31:01.880
<v Speaker 1>Globe this year. It really wanted her to win, um,

0:31:01.920 --> 0:31:04.600
<v Speaker 1>but she did not. But I just I can't wait

0:31:04.600 --> 0:31:07.320
<v Speaker 1>for season three of Better Things. Go out and watch it,

0:31:07.640 --> 0:31:11.600
<v Speaker 1>highly recommended. And finally comment guard. Gonna go through a

0:31:11.600 --> 0:31:14.800
<v Speaker 1>couple of listener mails here. This first one is from

0:31:14.840 --> 0:31:18.440
<v Speaker 1>Buck Wheat Young and Buck Wheat, I hope you know

0:31:18.520 --> 0:31:20.840
<v Speaker 1>I picked you because your name is Buck Wheat Young,

0:31:21.560 --> 0:31:23.280
<v Speaker 1>and I pray that that's your real name and not

0:31:23.400 --> 0:31:26.920
<v Speaker 1>some weird Facebook thing. That's a good one. Hello, Chuck

0:31:26.920 --> 0:31:29.360
<v Speaker 1>and Nole. I've really been enjoying the new podcast. You

0:31:29.400 --> 0:31:31.120
<v Speaker 1>said one of your previous episodes you had a list

0:31:31.120 --> 0:31:33.280
<v Speaker 1>of potential guests you wanted to have on the show.

0:31:33.320 --> 0:31:35.400
<v Speaker 1>Do you think you will ever have two guests at once?

0:31:36.080 --> 0:31:40.600
<v Speaker 1>And who would you like to have as two guests? Um,

0:31:40.640 --> 0:31:42.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to do that, Buck Wheat, for sure. At

0:31:42.720 --> 0:31:47.600
<v Speaker 1>some point, I think it makes sense for them to

0:31:47.680 --> 0:31:55.000
<v Speaker 1>be a couple. Uh, not necessarily romantic or married couple,

0:31:55.080 --> 0:32:00.680
<v Speaker 1>but just a pair of people. UM. I know one

0:32:00.760 --> 0:32:04.720
<v Speaker 1>real life couple, the comedian Kurt Brownholer and his wife

0:32:04.800 --> 0:32:08.080
<v Speaker 1>Lauren Cook are great and wonderful and funny, and Lauren

0:32:08.120 --> 0:32:10.760
<v Speaker 1>is an actress and has a weekly comedy show she

0:32:10.800 --> 0:32:13.200
<v Speaker 1>does in l A. And I know them a little bit,

0:32:13.240 --> 0:32:14.640
<v Speaker 1>so I would love to get Lauren and Kurt on

0:32:14.680 --> 0:32:15.760
<v Speaker 1>because there are a lot of fun. They have a

0:32:15.760 --> 0:32:20.720
<v Speaker 1>podcast called Wedlock that they do together. UM also Cameron

0:32:20.800 --> 0:32:24.720
<v Speaker 1>Esposito and Ria Butcher Um. They are two comedians in

0:32:24.720 --> 0:32:27.040
<v Speaker 1>Los Angeles and I know them a little bit as well,

0:32:27.440 --> 0:32:29.680
<v Speaker 1>and I think they would be fun. And Ria is well,

0:32:29.680 --> 0:32:31.920
<v Speaker 1>they're both great, but I know Ria would probably almost

0:32:31.920 --> 0:32:34.080
<v Speaker 1>certainly pick back to the future. So I'd like to

0:32:34.080 --> 0:32:35.840
<v Speaker 1>have them on, and I have reached out, but I

0:32:35.840 --> 0:32:39.320
<v Speaker 1>have not heard back from them, which is uh disappointing. UM.

0:32:39.320 --> 0:32:42.400
<v Speaker 1>In New York, I talked about Tony Shalub. His wife

0:32:42.440 --> 0:32:46.160
<v Speaker 1>is Brooke Adams Um from the great UM movie Days

0:32:46.160 --> 0:32:49.320
<v Speaker 1>of Heaven, which I probably mentioned a couple of episodes ago.

0:32:49.880 --> 0:32:53.880
<v Speaker 1>And I don't know if there's a communication breakdown or

0:32:53.920 --> 0:32:56.920
<v Speaker 1>if I'm just not understanding, but Brooke is also going

0:32:56.960 --> 0:32:58.800
<v Speaker 1>to be a guest in New York, and I don't

0:32:58.840 --> 0:33:01.360
<v Speaker 1>know if they're gonna do it together not. They may

0:33:01.360 --> 0:33:03.040
<v Speaker 1>be deferring to me on that, so maybe I'll get

0:33:03.040 --> 0:33:06.160
<v Speaker 1>them in there together together can be tough. Um, Holly

0:33:06.280 --> 0:33:08.280
<v Speaker 1>Fry and I are working on a History of Animation

0:33:08.280 --> 0:33:11.520
<v Speaker 1>show and we interviewed Seth Green and Matt Sinrich who

0:33:11.520 --> 0:33:15.000
<v Speaker 1>were the creators of Robot Chicken, and they were fantastic,

0:33:15.000 --> 0:33:17.280
<v Speaker 1>but they couldn't be more different. Seth is just like

0:33:17.360 --> 0:33:22.080
<v Speaker 1>kind of this like grizzled Hollywood Hollywood lifer, and Matt Sinwrich,

0:33:22.120 --> 0:33:25.239
<v Speaker 1>who like was the editor of Wizard Magazine, is just

0:33:25.360 --> 0:33:29.880
<v Speaker 1>this brilliant, delightful nerd U combo of them was interesting,

0:33:30.000 --> 0:33:31.920
<v Speaker 1>but it was really easy for Seth to kind of

0:33:31.920 --> 0:33:36.320
<v Speaker 1>just like plow. Yeah, that's true. He's been at it

0:33:36.320 --> 0:33:38.160
<v Speaker 1>for a while. Man, he was in Uh. He was

0:33:38.200 --> 0:33:40.600
<v Speaker 1>a little brothren Can't Buy Me Love shout out to

0:33:40.640 --> 0:33:43.800
<v Speaker 1>that movie. Uh. And then finally, UM, I really really

0:33:43.840 --> 0:33:47.360
<v Speaker 1>want to get Georgia and Karen on from My Favorite Murder.

0:33:48.040 --> 0:33:51.200
<v Speaker 1>I've finally gotten in touch with Georgia after trying all

0:33:51.240 --> 0:33:54.320
<v Speaker 1>different sorts of ways, because they were coming to Atlanta

0:33:54.320 --> 0:33:56.280
<v Speaker 1>and I wanted to meet them and talk a little

0:33:56.320 --> 0:33:58.760
<v Speaker 1>business about some stuff and talk about being on the show.

0:33:59.080 --> 0:34:00.760
<v Speaker 1>And Georgia finally got touch with me and now we

0:34:00.800 --> 0:34:03.240
<v Speaker 1>are I have her her number, and we are texting,

0:34:03.560 --> 0:34:07.840
<v Speaker 1>and she texted me about two hours before their Atlanta

0:34:07.880 --> 0:34:09.719
<v Speaker 1>show and said, Hey, do you want to come down

0:34:09.760 --> 0:34:12.360
<v Speaker 1>here and get on stage and tell the story of

0:34:12.360 --> 0:34:16.040
<v Speaker 1>an Atlanta murder that you love? And I've never wanted

0:34:16.080 --> 0:34:19.239
<v Speaker 1>to do anything more in my life because I am

0:34:19.280 --> 0:34:22.279
<v Speaker 1>a legit fanboy of them in that show. But I

0:34:22.320 --> 0:34:24.440
<v Speaker 1>was at my in law's house for a birthday celebration

0:34:24.440 --> 0:34:27.200
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, Georgia, you're killing me here with

0:34:27.320 --> 0:34:30.960
<v Speaker 1>this late notice. Uh. And she apologized, and she actually

0:34:30.960 --> 0:34:34.560
<v Speaker 1>texted back fuck in all caps, which if you listen

0:34:34.600 --> 0:34:37.080
<v Speaker 1>to my favorite murder just to get a text from

0:34:37.080 --> 0:34:39.600
<v Speaker 1>Georgia hard Stark that says fuck was a thrill for me.

0:34:41.000 --> 0:34:43.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah I should So anyway, Georgia and Karen, I'm gonna

0:34:43.320 --> 0:34:45.840
<v Speaker 1>get on and uh, that would be a murder movie

0:34:46.000 --> 0:34:48.239
<v Speaker 1>special and I think that I just can't wait to

0:34:48.320 --> 0:34:50.960
<v Speaker 1>do that, So I'm gonna make that happen. Uh. And

0:34:51.160 --> 0:34:55.680
<v Speaker 1>Ace Gardner says, Hey, guys, enjoy the podcast and the

0:34:55.760 --> 0:34:59.040
<v Speaker 1>humor and information found therein and he spelled humor with

0:34:59.080 --> 0:35:02.279
<v Speaker 1>an oh you are so at aces uh. From the UK,

0:35:02.880 --> 0:35:04.840
<v Speaker 1>here's a question for you. We all know how important

0:35:04.840 --> 0:35:08.719
<v Speaker 1>soundtrack and music in a movie? Is what would be

0:35:08.760 --> 0:35:15.200
<v Speaker 1>your favorite most notable use of silence? Good question. So

0:35:15.560 --> 0:35:21.680
<v Speaker 1>I approached this from a couple of angles. One is, um,

0:35:21.680 --> 0:35:24.840
<v Speaker 1>no dialogue scenes, um, but maybe there might be some

0:35:24.920 --> 0:35:28.160
<v Speaker 1>score going on. But then there's also times where there's

0:35:28.160 --> 0:35:31.120
<v Speaker 1>just not no sound whatsoever, which is kind of unique.

0:35:31.120 --> 0:35:34.560
<v Speaker 1>So I have a few examples here. Um the movie Gravity,

0:35:34.920 --> 0:35:37.360
<v Speaker 1>which was problematic in some ways for me, but it

0:35:37.520 --> 0:35:40.640
<v Speaker 1>looked so amazing with such a technical achievement that I

0:35:40.719 --> 0:35:44.240
<v Speaker 1>ended up liking it. Your anti three D? Right, Yeah,

0:35:44.400 --> 0:35:46.560
<v Speaker 1>did you see that one in three D? No? It

0:35:46.680 --> 0:35:48.920
<v Speaker 1>was good. Yeah, they made good use of it. I

0:35:48.960 --> 0:35:50.920
<v Speaker 1>thought that was one I am too. I thought it

0:35:50.960 --> 0:35:53.080
<v Speaker 1>was a rare example of like, okay, three D works here.

0:35:53.120 --> 0:35:54.640
<v Speaker 1>They shot it with that in mind. I could see

0:35:54.680 --> 0:35:57.200
<v Speaker 1>that there's not a lot of stuff in that movie too, too,

0:35:57.400 --> 0:35:59.040
<v Speaker 1>because that's one of my problems with three D is

0:35:59.080 --> 0:36:02.239
<v Speaker 1>just too much future. There's this thing coming at you

0:36:02.640 --> 0:36:05.040
<v Speaker 1>and that one it's like everything's floating in space, so

0:36:05.120 --> 0:36:08.120
<v Speaker 1>kind of everything's coming at you, right, But Gravity had

0:36:08.160 --> 0:36:11.680
<v Speaker 1>a lot of great silent sequences in that movie. Um,

0:36:11.960 --> 0:36:15.880
<v Speaker 1>spoiler for the new Star Wars movie. So I'm counting

0:36:15.920 --> 0:36:20.759
<v Speaker 1>down three, two, one to give everyone a chance to

0:36:20.880 --> 0:36:24.200
<v Speaker 1>not listen. The new Star Wars movie, to me has

0:36:24.239 --> 0:36:27.120
<v Speaker 1>one of the greatest all time uses of silence. When, um,

0:36:27.560 --> 0:36:30.080
<v Speaker 1>Laura Dern, what you remember the character's name. I can

0:36:30.120 --> 0:36:32.160
<v Speaker 1>never remember the Star Wars he names. I know, don't

0:36:32.200 --> 0:36:36.239
<v Speaker 1>don't kill us people. But Laura Dern's character she uh,

0:36:36.440 --> 0:36:39.120
<v Speaker 1>she gives up her own life. Uh. In in Battle

0:36:39.160 --> 0:36:41.680
<v Speaker 1>with the I keep wanting to say the Empire, but

0:36:41.719 --> 0:36:44.680
<v Speaker 1>it's the not New Order, that's the band, it's the

0:36:45.680 --> 0:36:50.000
<v Speaker 1>First Order. And she she goes through hyperspace and rips

0:36:50.040 --> 0:36:54.080
<v Speaker 1>through a one of the big ships of the First Order,

0:36:54.400 --> 0:36:57.759
<v Speaker 1>and uh. And Ryan Johnson plays that out in complete

0:36:57.800 --> 0:37:01.360
<v Speaker 1>silence for about ten or twelfth to the point where

0:37:01.440 --> 0:37:03.080
<v Speaker 1>a lot of theaters I don't know if you saw this,

0:37:03.160 --> 0:37:06.160
<v Speaker 1>had to put up signs when you're buying your tickets saying, hey,

0:37:06.480 --> 0:37:10.200
<v Speaker 1>there's a part in this movie that's totally silent. Nothing's wrong.

0:37:10.840 --> 0:37:13.480
<v Speaker 1>The sound isn't broken. Yeah, don't get up. And because

0:37:13.480 --> 0:37:14.960
<v Speaker 1>it's one of the better scenes, you don't want to

0:37:14.960 --> 0:37:17.560
<v Speaker 1>get up and run out and say it's not working. Um.

0:37:17.600 --> 0:37:20.319
<v Speaker 1>Really really great use of silence. Uh. And then I'm

0:37:20.320 --> 0:37:22.400
<v Speaker 1>gonna go through a few more here quickly. No Country

0:37:22.400 --> 0:37:26.240
<v Speaker 1>for Old Men has a lot of great no dialogue

0:37:26.280 --> 0:37:30.799
<v Speaker 1>sequences in that movie. It's just the wind well or

0:37:30.960 --> 0:37:36.280
<v Speaker 1>or um uh, Josh Brolin, you know, all that stuff

0:37:36.320 --> 0:37:39.320
<v Speaker 1>in the hotel when he's trying to get the money

0:37:39.440 --> 0:37:42.520
<v Speaker 1>in the in the air conditioning events and the tracking

0:37:42.719 --> 0:37:46.520
<v Speaker 1>things being that's like the only sound. It's so good.

0:37:47.080 --> 0:37:50.200
<v Speaker 1>That's that's probably one of my favorite movies of all time. Actually,

0:37:50.400 --> 0:37:52.799
<v Speaker 1>oh man, it's so good, excellent. Did you read the book.

0:37:53.160 --> 0:37:55.319
<v Speaker 1>I did not read the book. Now, the book is great,

0:37:55.360 --> 0:37:57.120
<v Speaker 1>and it's one of those I know that will handle

0:37:57.160 --> 0:38:00.640
<v Speaker 1>this question later. But someone did ask about books being

0:38:00.640 --> 0:38:04.359
<v Speaker 1>better than movies. Um, and that's an example. Well, we'll

0:38:04.400 --> 0:38:08.160
<v Speaker 1>just save that Silence of the Lambs, the ending one

0:38:08.160 --> 0:38:10.319
<v Speaker 1>of the great and the no dialogue sequences of all time,

0:38:10.360 --> 0:38:14.719
<v Speaker 1>when Jodie Foster is creeping around Buffalo Bill's basement with

0:38:14.840 --> 0:38:18.880
<v Speaker 1>the night vision goggles. Uh. The end of the Graduate

0:38:19.800 --> 0:38:24.400
<v Speaker 1>when Benjamin and Elaine run out after he pulls her

0:38:24.400 --> 0:38:26.840
<v Speaker 1>out of her wedding and run out to the bus,

0:38:26.880 --> 0:38:29.560
<v Speaker 1>and also one of the most unsettling endings of all time,

0:38:29.640 --> 0:38:32.040
<v Speaker 1>because you know the Graduate is such a good movie.

0:38:32.080 --> 0:38:34.520
<v Speaker 1>It's one of my favorites. And he finally gets Alane

0:38:35.080 --> 0:38:37.280
<v Speaker 1>and convinces her to not marry the guy and pulls

0:38:37.280 --> 0:38:39.600
<v Speaker 1>her out and they get on this bus and they

0:38:39.640 --> 0:38:41.200
<v Speaker 1>go to the back and they're sitting there and she's

0:38:41.200 --> 0:38:43.000
<v Speaker 1>in her wedding dress and they laugh for a minute

0:38:43.480 --> 0:38:47.319
<v Speaker 1>and then they just kind of go dead pan and

0:38:47.480 --> 0:38:50.400
<v Speaker 1>it's silent and they're not looking at each other, and

0:38:50.400 --> 0:38:53.040
<v Speaker 1>it's what you would think would just be this wonderful,

0:38:53.080 --> 0:38:54.960
<v Speaker 1>happy ending all of a sudden goes to this weird

0:38:55.080 --> 0:38:58.480
<v Speaker 1>model in like, wow, so now we've done this. Now

0:38:58.520 --> 0:39:03.120
<v Speaker 1>what now? What? It's great? Have you seen Good Time?

0:39:03.920 --> 0:39:06.680
<v Speaker 1>Good Time? It's it's a recent kind of crime movie

0:39:06.719 --> 0:39:11.160
<v Speaker 1>directed by the Softie Brothers um with Robert Pattinson. It

0:39:11.239 --> 0:39:15.160
<v Speaker 1>is incredible, and it has this entitle sequence where it's

0:39:15.200 --> 0:39:17.800
<v Speaker 1>just the static shot of one of the main characters

0:39:17.880 --> 0:39:21.120
<v Speaker 1>just having this dead eyed emotive look where he's just

0:39:21.680 --> 0:39:24.200
<v Speaker 1>dead eyed and emotives are kind of antithetical, but no,

0:39:24.440 --> 0:39:28.200
<v Speaker 1>he it's just like he's very he's kind of crushed

0:39:28.280 --> 0:39:30.279
<v Speaker 1>and you're looking at him and you just you see

0:39:30.320 --> 0:39:32.680
<v Speaker 1>so much in his face. And then this amazing Iggy

0:39:32.719 --> 0:39:35.200
<v Speaker 1>Pop song. The soundtrack is done by this guy, Daniel Lupton,

0:39:35.239 --> 0:39:37.319
<v Speaker 1>who's got a project called on a Trick's Point Never,

0:39:37.400 --> 0:39:39.799
<v Speaker 1>And there's a song with Iggy Pop doing this real

0:39:39.880 --> 0:39:42.600
<v Speaker 1>brooding vocal and that kind of it's just nat sound

0:39:42.640 --> 0:39:44.320
<v Speaker 1>for a while and him looking at the camera and

0:39:44.440 --> 0:39:46.520
<v Speaker 1>then that song comes on and the credits roll and

0:39:46.560 --> 0:39:48.799
<v Speaker 1>it just keeps holding on this shot of the it's

0:39:48.840 --> 0:39:53.040
<v Speaker 1>just see that movie. Yeah, I didn't recognize it by title.

0:39:53.440 --> 0:39:55.640
<v Speaker 1>And then finally the beginning of Punch Drunk Love. You

0:39:55.640 --> 0:39:58.080
<v Speaker 1>heard me talk with Tony Hale on stage about this,

0:39:58.120 --> 0:40:00.880
<v Speaker 1>but the whole opening sequence of Punch Drunk Love is

0:40:00.880 --> 0:40:04.799
<v Speaker 1>this great, great silent and no dialogue sequence, very quiet

0:40:04.840 --> 0:40:08.120
<v Speaker 1>and well done by p. T. Anderson. So that is

0:40:08.160 --> 0:40:12.040
<v Speaker 1>it for number three. Thanks nol. So what's in store
