I am your 2 00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:04,880 Speaker 1: host Movie Mike, joined this week by my wife and 3 00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:07,160 Speaker 1: co host Kelsey. How are you. I'm great. Ready to 4 00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:09,960 Speaker 1: get into the Oscar nominations. We'll do that. I'll give 5 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:12,959 Speaker 1: you my review of a Best Picture nominee, The Banshees 6 00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:15,080 Speaker 1: of Inna Sharin and in the Trailer Park, I'll talk 7 00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:18,560 Speaker 1: about why my expectations have changed for screen six after 8 00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 1: screen five kind of let me down. So shout out 9 00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 1: to the Monday Morning Movie crew. And now let's talk movies. 10 00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:27,360 Speaker 1: In a world where everyone and their mother has a podcast, 11 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 1: one man stands to infiltrate the ears of listeners like 12 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:35,919 Speaker 1: never before in a movie podcast. A man with so 13 00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 1: much movie knowledge, he's basically like a walking au MTV 14 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 1: with glasses from the Nashville Podcast Network. Is Movie Mike. 15 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:50,199 Speaker 1: Movie Podcast nominations came out last week. It is the 16 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,600 Speaker 1: ninety five oscars. I gotta say, looking at this list, 17 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 1: I'm a little underwhelmed. I would agree. And how would 18 00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 1: you describe Oscar season? For me? The super Bowl of 19 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 1: movie I love it. I love watching all of the 20 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: Best Picture nominees. It is the only award show I 21 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,840 Speaker 1: will watch all three hours of I try to defend it. 22 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:10,199 Speaker 1: I don't know why I do. There's no real reason 23 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: for me to be behind the Oscars, but I just 24 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: feel like there's a little bit of historical value and 25 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 1: it kind of provides a snapshot into all the important 26 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: things happening in movies for that year. And sometimes it 27 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 1: becomes a relic of pop culture. We have the infamous 28 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 1: Ellen degenerous selfie with all the celebrities, we had the 29 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: slap last year. There's always something at the Oscars, always something. 30 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: The Moonlight La La Land I was watching last week. 31 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 1: I know, we watched that on TikTok last week and 32 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 1: it still makes me cringe to this day. So there's 33 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 1: just always something magical to me about the Oscars, aside 34 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: from the movies that get nominated. And even now in 35 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: today's world where we have more access to all these actors, 36 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 1: it used to be that you would watch the Oscars 37 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: because this would be the only time you would see 38 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: these actors outside of their movies. I mean, we see 39 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: them on social media all the time now, but I 40 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 1: still think there's something special to having them all together 41 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: in one room. Even watching the Golden Globes it was 42 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: kind of cool to see them all interact. So I 43 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 1: like the fashion. Oh you like that part of it. 44 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 1: I love the fashion. I'm getting more into the guy fashion. 45 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: I follow a lot of g Q accounts, so I 46 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: get into a little bit of the red carpet because 47 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 1: I like to see, like people like Seth Rogan make 48 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: those lists, loves the g Q fall. I'll be driving 49 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: and all look over and I'm like, what are you 50 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 1: looking at g Q Instagram? Yeah, all right, but let's 51 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 1: get into the list. Let's start it off with Best Picture. 52 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: Who was nominated for Best Picture? And we'll go through 53 00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,839 Speaker 1: all the major categories. I'll tell you who I think 54 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: is going to win, and on some of these, i'll 55 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 1: tell you who I think should win, because sometimes it's 56 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,079 Speaker 1: different for me. So let's start with Best Picture. Best Picture. 57 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: We have all Quiet on the Western Front, Avatar, the 58 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 1: Way of Water, the Band, Shees of inn A Sharin Elvis, 59 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 1: everything everywhere, all at once, The Fableman's Tar, Top Gun, Maverick, 60 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 1: Triangle of Sadness and women Talking. The thing that sticks 61 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 1: out to me about this category is there are a 62 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: couple of sequels in their Top Gun Maverick, Avatar, the 63 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: Way of Water. Only two sequels ever have gone on 64 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,960 Speaker 1: to win Best Picture, that is Lord of the Rings 65 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 1: of the Return of the King and The Godfather Part two. 66 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: And the whole reason that the Best Picture category exists 67 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: and why sequels rarely get nominated is because these movies 68 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: are supposed to be novel. They're supposed to take either 69 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: a concept, take a historical figure and present it in 70 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 1: a way that hasn't been done before. This is the 71 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 1: worst year of Best Pictures in my opinion, and it 72 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 1: is the worst year Avatar really just because it took 73 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: a lot of money to make and it made a 74 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: lot of money and James Cameron does not mean it 75 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: should be nominated for Best Picture. And what I said 76 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,840 Speaker 1: last year doing this episode is I believe that they 77 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: should have like an automatic slot for whatever movie gross 78 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: the highest amount the previous year to automatically get nominated 79 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: for Best Picture. That kind of happened this year on 80 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: its own, with Avatar now crossing the two billion marks. 81 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 1: So having that movie there and having Top Gun Maverick, 82 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 1: I feel, gives that movies for people to root for 83 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: who don't normally care about Best Picture. And this is 84 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: the battle I get into every year is I watch 85 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: all these movies because you don't do this podcast. I 86 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: would watch it even if I didn't have this podcast. 87 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: But sometimes it's hard to get people interested because it's 88 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 1: all movies they've never seen. But now they are actual 89 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: movies that have also the box office numbers. So I 90 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 1: feel it's a little bit different this year. But also 91 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: I don't think Avadar should be up there. I don't 92 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: think Elvis is Best Picture worthy. I'm going to say it. 93 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 1: Elvis was good. I don't know. It didn't live up 94 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: to the hype for me. Like I remember we talked 95 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,119 Speaker 1: about and I was like, it was good. Austin Butler 96 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: did a great job, but we're what came out of 97 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 1: June were like seven months out. Hey, I'm sick of 98 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: his Elvis accent. I get he did method acting. If 99 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 1: I have to hear him talk on an Award show, 100 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,560 Speaker 1: it irritates me to my core. But also, like I 101 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: don't know, wasn't the greatest biopic ever made? It was different. 102 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: I also think a lot of Best Picture in the 103 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:05,080 Speaker 1: Oscars altogether is politics, and you have avatars on there, 104 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 1: so you have just people already built into this. So 105 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: I don't think Elvis will win. I don't think Top 106 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: Gun Maverick will win. I kind of feel like it 107 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 1: kind of snuck in there. I like Triangle of Sadness, 108 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: but I don't feel like that movie was big enough. 109 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: I couldn't watch it. Yeah, there's a lot of puking 110 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: in that movie. I can't handle that, and then banshees 111 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:27,359 Speaker 1: of inner shearing. I feel like that is one that 112 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,479 Speaker 1: the people voting on the Oscars would lean towards. The 113 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: Academy loves that it was good. I was you liked 114 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,120 Speaker 1: it more than me, but I watched it. But it 115 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 1: is very much like a caters to the Academy. And 116 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 1: then you have the Fable Means, which it's hard to 117 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 1: bet against. I loved the Fable Man. Even Spielberg I 118 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: really liked it too. I feel like that's almost runner 119 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 1: up in this scenario, and I wouldn't be surprised if 120 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: it did win. I don't see it winning though, Yeah, 121 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: I can't visualize that in my head. So I'm going 122 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: with a winner here. Everything everywhere, all at once. It 123 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: had the most nominations out of any movie. It is 124 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 1: the most novel out of any movie on this list, 125 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 1: and I think it deserves to win. I think it 126 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: needs to be the movie that represents so I'm going 127 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 1: with everything everywhere, all at once. A snub here. Some 128 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 1: people said Nope, I really enjoyed Nope. I probably overhyped 129 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: nope on this podcast. But I don't think it is 130 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: a snub here. I don't think it was the Best 131 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: Picture worthy, even though I really enjoyed it. What kinda Forever? 132 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: I don't think it had as much of a cultural 133 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: impact as the First Black Panther. But if you're gonna 134 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 1: put Elvis up there, if you're gonna put top Gun 135 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 1: Maverick Avatar up there, yeah, I'm surprised that Black Panther, 136 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: What kind of Forever didn't get up there. So all right, 137 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 1: let's move on now to Best Actor in the Leading 138 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 1: Role another week category. I have a snub though, the Whale. 139 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, I forgot about that I got so 140 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,240 Speaker 1: let's let's backtrack here. I said when I reviewed The 141 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 1: Whale that I would riot if it didn't win Best Picture. 142 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 1: I'm looking at your notes, and didn't even get nominated. 143 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 1: For everyone listening, he moved his microphone away for you, 144 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 1: But um, that was writ here. It did not even 145 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,919 Speaker 1: get nominated, and I was saying a lot of the 146 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: Oscars are politics, and that is probably why it did 147 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: not get nominated. The Whale probably didn't play the game 148 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: that all these other movies did. It is an outrage 149 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 1: to me that The Whale is not nominated, which this 150 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 1: leads until we will talked about in the second he 151 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 1: Britnain Frasier got nominated The Whale. I was going to 152 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 1: get to that, but I forgot about the biggest snub 153 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: of all time. When these were revealed, my jaw literally draw. 154 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: I'm still getting choked up about it because that movie, 155 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: even more so than everything everywhere all at once, resonated 156 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 1: with me so much, and it was so well done. 157 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: There was so much great acting in that movie. I 158 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 1: can't believe it ain't be nominated. I also, I just 159 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: referenced her notes. I would like to point up my 160 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 1: point out. I woke up this morning and at like 161 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: seven am, you had emailed I get fired up about 162 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: the Oscars, prepped like prep for this episode. And I 163 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: woke up and I was like, I feel like my 164 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 1: boss is like sending me a tap, and you were like, Okay, 165 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: this is what we're going through. And I just just 166 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: review this when you have a chance. And I was like, 167 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 1: what is this my job? Now? Yeah? But I was 168 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:08,800 Speaker 1: so fired up. But the whale I forgot to put 169 00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: it in my notes. But yeah, well we'll get to 170 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: it now here. Best actor in a leading role. Who 171 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 1: do we got? We have Brendan Fraseral, Austin Butler and Elvis, 172 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: Colin Farrell and the Band, Trees of Inn Shearing, Paul 173 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: mescal and aftersn and Bill nigh In living. If it 174 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 1: doesn't go to Brindan Fraser, I'll riot. I'm already writing 175 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: because it didn't get nominated for Best Picture, And I 176 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 1: swear if Austin Butler wins, I'm turning off the TV. 177 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 1: I'm out. Like he already won the Golden Globe, which 178 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:40,560 Speaker 1: I thought was it's the method acting, it's the fact 179 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: that he's going to talk like Elvis for the rest 180 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,079 Speaker 1: of his life. I just don't believe that his performance 181 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: in that movie was Best actor worthy. I like to 182 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: think of it as like, could someone else have done 183 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 1: that role better? Yeah? Like I don't feel like Austin 184 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,559 Speaker 1: Butler himself, like aside from like anyone who's going to 185 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 1: commit to a part like that and do method acting 186 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: can do that. I mean, we've seen Christian Bale, Matthew McConaughey, 187 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: and Dallas Buyer's Club, Like, we have seen people put 188 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: themselves through hell to become the character they're playing. So like, 189 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 1: I don't feel like Austin Butler brought anything novel other 190 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,559 Speaker 1: than the commitment to sounding like Elvis. I mean, he 191 00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 1: played it up so much about staying in character, and 192 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 1: it's staying with him for like two years and having 193 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: to go to the hospital. We get it, but I 194 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 1: feel like it was more the theatric surrounding that movie 195 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 1: that made it appealing. I don't really think it was him, 196 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: So if he wins, I'm out. But the crazy thing 197 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,559 Speaker 1: is that all Best Actor nominees are all first time nominees. 198 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 1: That's surprising that Colin Farrell has he been nominated before, 199 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 1: like in a supporting role, first time nominee. Really, I 200 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: was even looking back at some of his movies and 201 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: for as a dynamic of an actor that he is, 202 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 1: I don't think he really has that role defining role 203 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 1: yet and that this one could be it. I wouldn't 204 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 1: hate it if you won. That's interesting because I feel 205 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: like Colin Farrell is like a defined like a list 206 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,920 Speaker 1: or in my head, there are several actors like that 207 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: that I feel like they're a list, But even when 208 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: you look at the movies they been in, you're like, oh, 209 00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: there's not one that I really gravitate towards. Remember when 210 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 1: we saw Gwyneth Paltrow at the grocery store. Yes, like 211 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:09,600 Speaker 1: I know she back in the day won an oscar, 212 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 1: But looking at her movies, I still associated with Pepper Potts, 213 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 1: but I wouldn't really call that her, you know, her 214 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 1: title role. Okay. Another to add to that, Claire Danes. Yeah, 215 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 1: And I mean she's also like one Awards for a 216 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,200 Speaker 1: lot of early stuff that she did, but then like 217 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,200 Speaker 1: it was bigger on like Homeland, and then we just 218 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: watched Trim Fleishman is in Trouble. So there's some of 219 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: those that, yeah, it's like I forget what they're like 220 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 1: early defining role was I was thinking of like Anna Kendrick, 221 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 1: who obviously well known for Pitch Perfect. I loved her 222 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: and up in the year and she's an alist. Yeah, 223 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: but I still don't feel like she has that one 224 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 1: role that like I got that's my favorite meme. Yeah, 225 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 1: I'm going with Brendan Frasier as the winner. Here, I 226 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: will say, I think a snub here is Johnny Knoxville. 227 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:54,200 Speaker 1: This is the stupidest take you have ever had on anything. See, 228 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: when it comes to best actor in a leading role, 229 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: they always give it to somebody who really went above 230 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 1: and yawn to you get into character, put their body 231 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 1: on the line. If anybody ever like drops a bunch 232 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 1: of weight for a role like what King Phoenix for Joker, 233 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 1: that always gets recognized, that always feels to me like 234 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 1: an easy win. Johnny Knoxville in his fifty still putting 235 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: his life on the line. And it's not a role, 236 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 1: it's a it's a bit. He got hit by a 237 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 1: bull again, broken for being stupid, broken ribs, a concussion, 238 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 1: within the hospital for months, a brain hemorrhage. That deserves 239 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 1: a nomination in my own No it doesn't. I think 240 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 1: it does. That deserves to I don't know, like a 241 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: Razzie for dumbest person. No, I think that's best actor worthy. 242 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 1: But he's not playing a character. He's just being Johnny 243 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 1: Knoxville being stupid. That's not a character. You could argue 244 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 1: that the whole Johnny Knoxville persona is a character that 245 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 1: he plays up. Not his real name, No, what's his 246 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 1: real name? His real name is Philip John Clapp. Johnny 247 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 1: Knoxville is a nickname. Johnny Knoxville sounds a lot. It 248 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:00,839 Speaker 1: is a lot. Okay, No, I still don't think he 249 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 1: deserves an oscar. And also this was I read this 250 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:05,480 Speaker 1: when I read your prep this morning, and I got 251 00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: to this and I was like, this is truly the 252 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: worst take you've ever had on anything, the only kind 253 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 1: of takes you can only find a movie mis movie podcast. 254 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 1: Johnny knox Steel deserves the Best Actor nomination. I also 255 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 1: thought Ray fine the Menu. He was really good in that, 256 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 1: so good he's he's such a good actor. He is, like, 257 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 1: hands down, I think one of the best at playing 258 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:29,559 Speaker 1: just like villainous characters because he's Baltimore. Yeah, he has 259 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 1: a really great range and it shows so much in 260 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,960 Speaker 1: that movie. I'm surprised that didn't get a nomination. Some 261 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,079 Speaker 1: people said that Tom Cruise should have been nominated for 262 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: a top Gun. No, look at his performance in that 263 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 1: is so cheesy, so retro eighties. Even though that character 264 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 1: itself means a lot to so many people, that does 265 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: not deserve an Oscar nomination, So get outta here with 266 00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: that movie. Got now to your best Actress in the 267 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: leading role. What do we have here? Kate Blanchett and 268 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,680 Speaker 1: Tar on a Day, Armis and Blonde, Andrea Riseborrow and 269 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 1: two Leslie, Michelle Williams and The Fableman's and Michelle Yao 270 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: and everything everywhere all at once. I can't believe the 271 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 1: Artemas was nominated. That is sus to me. I really 272 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: love Michelle Williams and The Fableman's, Like she is such 273 00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: a great dramatic actress, and I felt like her performance 274 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: in that movie, I mean really carried it. The entire 275 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 1: story kind of surrounded her character in that movie and 276 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 1: what she went through in her emotional struggles. I would 277 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: almost give it to her here, but Michelle Yao and 278 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: everything everywhere all at once. It was just such a 279 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: great lead. And I think that role itself probably will 280 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 1: be more defiant as the years go on, like that 281 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,680 Speaker 1: is just now an iconic movie character. I need to 282 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 1: rewatch that movie already. We'll go rewatch it right now. 283 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 1: But yeah, I think that one is going to win, 284 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 1: all right. What do we have now, Best Actor in 285 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 1: a Supporting Role, Brendan Gleeson in the band She's a 286 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:59,680 Speaker 1: Inna Sharan, Brian Tyree Henry and Causeway Judd here in 287 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 1: the Abelman's Very Colgan in the band She's of Inno Shearin, 288 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: and then k We Kwon and everything everywhere all at once. 289 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 1: I would really like him to win. I mean, he 290 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 1: was a child actor, known for the Indiana Jones movies, 291 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 1: known for the Goonies, and then didn't really have success 292 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 1: later And the way he got this role was kind 293 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 1: of his reprise and you know, returned to acting, and 294 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: I think just for the sake of having a really 295 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 1: good speech, and those moments kind of get me too. 296 00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: With the Oscars, I would really want him to win. 297 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 1: I think he deserves it over anybody else. But to 298 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 1: that point, he did the speech at the Golden Globes. Yeah, 299 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: I want to see it again again. But I think 300 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 1: the character and actor performance that I really fell in 301 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 1: love with was Brendan Gleeson. Like he was so good 302 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,680 Speaker 1: in the Banshees of Indo Shearin and I was never 303 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 1: really a particular fan of his, and even when he 304 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 1: did and hosted SNL, I was kind of like, he's 305 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: all right, But seeing him in this movie. It really 306 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 1: made me like him, and I think he's going to win. 307 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 1: I think, all right, who do we have now for 308 00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 1: actress in a supporting role? Angela Bassett from Black Panther, 309 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: Waconda Forever, Hong Chow from The Whale Carrie Condon Band. 310 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 1: She's ben A Sharin, Jamie Lee Curtis everything everywhere, all 311 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: at once, and Stephanie Shoe everything everywhere all at once. 312 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: I think both Jamie Lee Curtis and Stephanie Shoe almost 313 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 1: cancel each other out in this category. I feel like 314 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 1: their characters were a little bit equal in that Jamie 315 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: Lee Curtis has kind of a smaller role in that altogether, 316 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 1: so I'm kind of surprised she got nominated. I don't 317 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 1: think that's a supporting role worthy level performance. More so 318 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 1: I would go with Stephanie Shoe. But I think hands 319 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:47,920 Speaker 1: down the one who should win is Angela Bassett in 320 00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,200 Speaker 1: Black Panther. Oh absolutely, she deserves it. Like the emotion 321 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: she put into her performance and her entire character arc 322 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 1: in Black Panther was one of my favorite things in 323 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 1: that movie. I want Angelabasset stand so she's great and 324 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 1: surprised that Hong Chow was nominated for The Whale and 325 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 1: not Sadie Sink. I really love Sadie think in that movie, 326 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 1: I think Hong Chow's character had more depth because she 327 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 1: was the one taking care of him but also almost 328 00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 1: enabling his disease. So I feel like her character had 329 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: this really hard like juxtaposition of wanting to care for 330 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 1: her friend as a human and like take care of 331 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 1: him and keep him alive, but also like not wanting 332 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 1: to deprive him of things like she would bring him 333 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 1: fast food, but she was also like basically his nurse. 334 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 1: So I just feel like her character had more depth 335 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 1: and more layers than Sadie Sinks did, because Sadie Sink 336 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 1: was not one dimensional as a character but his a 337 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 1: strange daughter coming to get to know him. I guess 338 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 1: I was just more surprised with her performance and how 339 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 1: vicious she was and how well she kind of played 340 00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 1: into that role of making you at times not like her, 341 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,200 Speaker 1: like almost to the point where you hated her carer 342 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 1: and then kind of feeling redemption and sympathy towards your character. 343 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 1: And for being an actor at her age to be 344 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 1: able to pull that off, I thought that was really impressive. 345 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:11,280 Speaker 1: I also think, though this is just kind of like 346 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,360 Speaker 1: the start of us seeing Sadie Sink. Yeah, I think 347 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 1: like she's been some really good stuff lately, so I 348 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 1: think I think there's potential there in the future. And 349 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:21,399 Speaker 1: also I think, kind of like you said, Jami Lee 350 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 1: Curtis and Stephanie Shooe, if we had both Sadie Sink 351 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:25,159 Speaker 1: and Honk Child like, I don't think either of them 352 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: would have a chance. But still, out of anybody, I 353 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 1: think Angela Bassett deserves it. So we'll go through best 354 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 1: Director now and then run through some of the rest 355 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 1: of these. So who do we have for Best Director? 356 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 1: Todd Field for Tar, Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert for 357 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: Everything Everywhere, All at Once, Martin McDonough for The Band, 358 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:46,159 Speaker 1: She's of Inn Sharing Ruben Austlin Triangle of Sadness, and 359 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:50,199 Speaker 1: good old Steven Spielberg for The Fableman's He won the 360 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 1: Golden Globe. But out of all of the Steven Spielberg 361 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,520 Speaker 1: movies I've seen, I know a lot of this movie, 362 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 1: like the way it comes to life is because of 363 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:02,639 Speaker 1: his directing, and it is a story about himself done 364 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:04,920 Speaker 1: in a really kind of different way. It's not like 365 00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:08,520 Speaker 1: a full on biopic, so it really focuses on their family. 366 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:12,120 Speaker 1: But I just don't think it's his best director winner here. 367 00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: He's wanted in the past, but I don't think it's here. 368 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 1: Maybe that's what he's going for now, like in his 369 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 1: older age, like I want to get another one, but 370 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 1: I don't think he deserves it here. I think the 371 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 1: most novel approach to directing and my new favorite team 372 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 1: of directors are the Daniels and Everything Everywhere all at once. 373 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,360 Speaker 1: I really love their movie Before the Swiss Army Man. 374 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,640 Speaker 1: I just think after the success of this movie, this 375 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: is what more directors are going to try and emulate. 376 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 1: They're gonna basically steal their formula and not be able 377 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 1: to replicate it. It kind of reminds me of Quentin 378 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,879 Speaker 1: Tarantino in the nineties when he put out pulp fiction. 379 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 1: Everybody else kind of stole this genre. Everybody else wanted 380 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 1: to be like him. I think that's what people are 381 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 1: going to try to do now with the Daniels. They're 382 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:57,920 Speaker 1: going to try and create really outlandish, over the top, 383 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 1: original stories, and I don't think they will be able 384 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 1: to match them because they're already way steps ahead above 385 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 1: everybody else, so I think they deserve to win. Their 386 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 1: passion for directing really makes me excited just for everything 387 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,440 Speaker 1: they do in the future, and makes me excited that 388 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 1: there will always be new novel movies coming out to 389 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 1: root for, and that's always what I look for. And 390 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 1: if you can't tell, this podcast is not an ad 391 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,679 Speaker 1: for everything ever, it is just Mike's favorite movie of 392 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:27,159 Speaker 1: the year. It is it one has a limit nominations. 393 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 1: I think it's going to Clean House. So now we'll 394 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 1: run through some of these other categories that are still noteworthy, 395 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,919 Speaker 1: but I don't really care about these as much. Animated 396 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: feature film, I think we'll go to Gamma Do Toro's Pinocchio. 397 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 1: I thought it was a really great movie, but I 398 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,679 Speaker 1: was also coming off of just seeing the Disney Plus 399 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 1: version of Pinocchio, so I think I was just tired 400 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 1: of Pinocchio, which I hate that both of those movies 401 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 1: came out in the same year, and Gammo Do Toro's 402 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 1: approach to it was so much more thought out, and 403 00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: you've been working on this movie for so long. I 404 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,439 Speaker 1: hate that I compare into the other one because I 405 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:03,440 Speaker 1: just had that story just stuck in my head. I'm 406 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:06,400 Speaker 1: a little over the Pinocchio story, but take that aside 407 00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:08,919 Speaker 1: and think of all the animation and work that went 408 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,119 Speaker 1: into this. I'll to stop motion the score to this movie. 409 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,160 Speaker 1: I think that one deserves to win. When it comes 410 00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 1: to cinematography, I think All Quiet on the Western Front 411 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:22,200 Speaker 1: will probably win for that. I'm surprised that movie got 412 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: as many nominations as it did, but Netflix really didn't 413 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,680 Speaker 1: have anything else to kind of put in the running here. 414 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: The only other one I could see winning would probably 415 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: be Elvis, just because that movie had that bos Luhrman 416 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:40,399 Speaker 1: like glow to it, that very flashy cinematography. It loves flash, 417 00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:43,399 Speaker 1: It's so flashy, so I think that cinematography added a 418 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,159 Speaker 1: lot to that movie. But I'll still go with All 419 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 1: Quiet on the Western Front. In a music category, original Song, 420 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:51,199 Speaker 1: I'm going with the Rihanna song left me up from 421 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 1: Black Panther easily. Rihanna's singing at the super Bowl and 422 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 1: then a month later she's getting an oscar. It's gonna happen. 423 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 1: And that's the only song out of all the other 424 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,200 Speaker 1: ones nominated that I I associate with the movie, although 425 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: that not to not to on the Golden Globe. That's 426 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:06,959 Speaker 1: probably the one that would beat it out. I just 427 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: feel now that songs don't have as much of an 428 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,639 Speaker 1: impact in movies as they used to, like back in 429 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:15,159 Speaker 1: the nineties two thousands. I feel like there was always 430 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:16,960 Speaker 1: like that title track to a movie that you would 431 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 1: always associate with it. I feel like that's becoming less 432 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 1: and less of a thing. Like big artists do put 433 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 1: out songs like this for movies. I mean, you have 434 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 1: Lady Gaga nominated for Top Gun Maverick, so it still happens, 435 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 1: but I feel like they don't have that much of 436 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,920 Speaker 1: an impact of me connecting it to that movie with 437 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,959 Speaker 1: me up did. I think the only one before this 438 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,199 Speaker 1: was probably Sunflower in Spider Man into the Spider Verse, 439 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,760 Speaker 1: but that's also because it's bost Malone. So I'm going 440 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: with Rihanna here, but yes, you're right not to. Not 441 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 1: to probably could win easily. And then an original score, 442 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:50,679 Speaker 1: I will go with the Fableman's. I think Steven Spielberg 443 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:54,400 Speaker 1: always makes great scores, and they always are very intentional 444 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 1: and give the entire movie it's feel, whether you realize 445 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,800 Speaker 1: it or not while you're watching it. And I felt 446 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,679 Speaker 1: that in the Fableman's and then in costume design. I 447 00:22:03,680 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 1: always like when they do this category because it's people 448 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 1: who are so passionate about what they do and they 449 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 1: rarely get recognized. I know some people are like, why 450 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 1: are they putting all these categories on TV? Oh, I 451 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,119 Speaker 1: think this was one of the most important because I 452 00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 1: feel like again talking about I love the fashion of 453 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 1: the Oscars. Good costumes can make or break a movie. 454 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:25,159 Speaker 1: A lot goes into it. It's very intentional to in 455 00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 1: a lot of movies, like think about like any like 456 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:30,679 Speaker 1: period piece you have, like those are going to be 457 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: more like muted tone. Little Women comes to mind, or 458 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:41,159 Speaker 1: like Elvis, flashy, big costumes like replicated so much of 459 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 1: what Elvis for like that that is a craft and 460 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:45,400 Speaker 1: I love seeing the people go up there to take 461 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:49,480 Speaker 1: on the award because they deserve some recognition. Absolutely, So, 462 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:52,119 Speaker 1: like you said with Elvis, I think that was a 463 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 1: big part of it in that movie, all the plashy jumpsuits, 464 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,879 Speaker 1: even Colonel Tom Parker's costume added a lot to the 465 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:01,199 Speaker 1: entire movie. So I think that one will win all. 466 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,200 Speaker 1: I would like to see Black Panther take them that one, 467 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 1: Like those costumes are amazing and the just the advancements 468 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,920 Speaker 1: they made into the Black Panther suit. Oh yeah, I 469 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,640 Speaker 1: mean I would pick, like, I personally vote for Black Panther, 470 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 1: but I feel like if Elvis is going in something, yeah, 471 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:21,199 Speaker 1: I'd rather than win costume design than Austin Butler. And 472 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:25,240 Speaker 1: then finally for makeup and hairstyling, again, I probably think 473 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 1: Elvis will win here. I do think they're because I 474 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:31,160 Speaker 1: mean they did, yeah get those and especially like Priscilla's hair, 475 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,880 Speaker 1: like they got that stuff down, And especially because Austin 476 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:39,439 Speaker 1: Butler doesn't really resemble Elvis a whole lot. I felt 477 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 1: like through some of the makeup and the hair that 478 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,479 Speaker 1: kind of was able to create and paint that image. 479 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: More so, I think that was important more so than 480 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 1: all the other movies nominated here, all of the Whale, 481 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,400 Speaker 1: A lot of that did involve a lot of makeup 482 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 1: and the hair design. Yeah, but that's also been done before. 483 00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 1: And if I was personally voting, I would vote for 484 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 1: The Batman just because I like Robert Pattinson's look in 485 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,400 Speaker 1: that movie. How he was kind of like Emo with 486 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:08,920 Speaker 1: the black makeup, that's all the smudge, his hair was 487 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,119 Speaker 1: all messed up and all over the place, and he 488 00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 1: had like really cool street style, the makeup smudged in 489 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 1: the hair. That's what people look like on Broadway on 490 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 1: a Sunday morning. Yeah, you're in Nashville. Yeah, they just 491 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 1: took that approach. But yeah, like if I were to 492 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 1: dress like one character from a movie nominated, I would 493 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:31,119 Speaker 1: address like Robert Pattinson's Batman exactly. It works. But anyway, 494 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,679 Speaker 1: there you have it. We ran through all the nominees. 495 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 1: The Oscars are going down on Sunday in March twelve 496 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 1: on ABC. I will be watching all three hours and 497 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,480 Speaker 1: we'll see who wins. And you'll be wearing your Oscar 498 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 1: Black Talks hoodie. Yeah, my annual tux hoodie will come back. 499 00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:50,119 Speaker 1: I will give you my spoiler free review of the 500 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 1: Best Picture nominee, The Banshees of Inna Sharin, and then 501 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 1: we'll talk about Scream six. Let's get into a spoiler 502 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 1: free movie review now. I want to talk about the 503 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 1: Best Picture nominee, The Banshee's of in a sharing one 504 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 1: of the most peculiar films I've seen in the Best 505 00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:14,120 Speaker 1: Picture category and one that I don't think is for everybody. 506 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,119 Speaker 1: I think within the first twenty minutes of this movie, 507 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 1: I looked over to my wife and she said, what 508 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 1: is this? What are we watching? And it is a 509 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:23,120 Speaker 1: bit of a slow burn, And it's one of those 510 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:26,239 Speaker 1: movies where you expect there to be something else and 511 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 1: there's really not. And sometimes that upsets me or disappoints me. 512 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 1: But when I realized this is all this movie was 513 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,359 Speaker 1: going to be about, I was all in and I 514 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: ended up really enjoying it. And what the movie really is, 515 00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 1: It's about Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson who are friends, 516 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:46,199 Speaker 1: and the entire movie is about them not being friends anymore. 517 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 1: It's about a friendship unraveling. At the beginning, it feels 518 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 1: like for no particular reason, but that's really it. It's 519 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 1: just about a friendship unraveling and all the crazy links 520 00:25:54,960 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 1: that this one guy goes through just because he can't 521 00:25:57,840 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 1: take no for an answer. So before I get into 522 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 1: my will review of the band Shees of Inner Sharing, 523 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: here is just a little bit of the trailer. Colin 524 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 1: Sonny Larry in June. He used to be the best 525 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 1: of friends. We're still the best of friends. Enough. Who 526 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 1: says we're not said somewhere else. Now, if I've done 527 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 1: something here. Just tell me what I've done here. But 528 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:19,679 Speaker 1: they didn't do that to me. I just don't like 529 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 1: you know, more like me yesterday. So Colin Farrell plays 530 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 1: a guy named Patrick, Brendan Gleeson plays a guy named Kom. 531 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:31,119 Speaker 1: Sorry if I butcher their names after watching this movie, 532 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:33,879 Speaker 1: since it takes place in Ireland and they're both Irish actors, 533 00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: I've been trying to talk like Colin Farrell, so everything 534 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,439 Speaker 1: kind of comes out like this. I feel like I 535 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 1: could go to the benches of inner sharing and and 536 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:42,439 Speaker 1: blend in a little bit. So I've been doing that 537 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,760 Speaker 1: a lot. So forgive me if I mess up the 538 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 1: pronunciations of their names. But they are friends, and it 539 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: starts at the very beginning of their story of them 540 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 1: not being friends anymore. One day, Brendan Gleeson is just like, yo, 541 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 1: I don't want to hang out with you anymore. And 542 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 1: Colin Farrow is kind of this dim with guy who 543 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 1: has trouble putting things together and he doesn't get it. 544 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:04,719 Speaker 1: He doesn't want to lose his best friend, and he 545 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: goes through all these links to get him back. He 546 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:09,959 Speaker 1: won't take no for an answer. He keeps bothering him 547 00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 1: keeps bothering him. Even with the crazy stipulation he puts 548 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 1: towards Colin Farrell to tell him never contact me again. 549 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:20,440 Speaker 1: It keeps going further and further, and once I realized 550 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 1: that it really helped me settle into this movie and 551 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,879 Speaker 1: I understood that I was watching a comedy. And I've 552 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,240 Speaker 1: said recently that I feel like we're kind of out 553 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 1: of the era of comedies, but maybe we're just out 554 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,399 Speaker 1: of the era of American comedies because they handle this 555 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 1: one so well and it was so interesting and so 556 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:40,960 Speaker 1: more thought out that I think this is what comedies 557 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 1: need to evolve into. It doesn't have to be all 558 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 1: these zany things, all these gags and pop culture reference 559 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: jokes and quotable moments that we tend to associate with comedies. 560 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 1: I think you kind of need to grow from that 561 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 1: to make people laugh again and have more stories like 562 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:03,920 Speaker 1: this where it's more situational comedy and finding really peculiar 563 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 1: characters doing really unusual things. And there's all these cast 564 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,439 Speaker 1: of characters throughout this small, little remote island. It just 565 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 1: felt like a really great ensemble cast and it didn't 566 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,360 Speaker 1: really feel like it was trying so hard to be funny. 567 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 1: Just the essence of it I found hilarious anyway. So 568 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 1: it's a very dead pan style of comedy, and I 569 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 1: just really love the focus on finding a very remote 570 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: island and telling a story there. And sometimes when I'm 571 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 1: like driving across the country on a road trip, I'll 572 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:39,239 Speaker 1: see a very remote house and think, what is that 573 00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: person's story? They are nowhere near a grocery store or 574 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 1: a gas station, Like how do they survive? Sometimes you 575 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 1: see these small little towns and you think there has 576 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 1: to be a story in there. And I felt like 577 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,719 Speaker 1: this is what the Banshees of Innit Sharing was. It 578 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 1: was taking this small little community and amplifying it these 579 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 1: otherwise unorthodox characters at no one else would tell their story. 580 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 1: That is exactly what this movie does. So again, I 581 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 1: don't think it's for everybody. And watching this movie a 582 00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:11,440 Speaker 1: little bit closely, you can kind of tell why it's 583 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,920 Speaker 1: getting so many nominations. It's like right up there with 584 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,920 Speaker 1: what critics are going to like. And now, like I 585 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 1: talked about earlier, I think it is a contender because 586 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 1: of that. So I still have that feeling that it 587 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 1: could win for Best Picture. I don't think it deserves too, 588 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 1: but it does have that appeal of it being novel 589 00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,120 Speaker 1: and also being a comedy, but there are no bills 590 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: and whistles. It's really just a character study. Within the 591 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 1: first ten minutes of the movie, you're like, what what 592 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 1: is happening right now? And the other thing I really 593 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 1: enjoyed about this film was the cinematography and the focus 594 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 1: on the landscape of Ireland. They made this country out 595 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:48,640 Speaker 1: to look completely beautiful, which I'm sure it's beautiful all 596 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 1: in its own, but they really focused on that, and 597 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 1: they really highlighted that the island itself is kind of personified, 598 00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 1: being responsible for what's going on in all of these 599 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: people's lives, and the fact that only so few people 600 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 1: live there kind of adds to that humor of the 601 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 1: craziness that happens on this small, little island. I just 602 00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: really loved how relentless Colin Farrell's character is, and it 603 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: made me kind of appreciate him a little bit more 604 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 1: as an actor. I've seen so many of his movies, 605 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 1: but I never really would put him on my list 606 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 1: of he's an actor that I have to see every 607 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,640 Speaker 1: single movie they've been in. But in the last ten 608 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 1: years he's had quite a range of being able to 609 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 1: do really big blockbusters and smaller indie movies, So in 610 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 1: the last ten years, this definitely makes the list of 611 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 1: one of my favorite roles of his and the range 612 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 1: he has from doing a character like this to playing 613 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 1: the penguin in The Batman and also doing movies like 614 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 1: After Yang in the Lobster, It definitely gives him a 615 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 1: little bit more of a case. For me, it definitely 616 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 1: made me want to be a little bit more invested 617 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 1: in him and pay attention to some of his roles 618 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 1: because he makes some really good ones. And I think 619 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 1: he really kind of shined in this role because he 620 00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 1: is Irish, and I think that added to a lot 621 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 1: of the humor in this movie because it may became 622 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 1: a little bit more natural to him. And also him 623 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 1: and Brendan Gleason is just real life friendship that really 624 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 1: translated on screen. I think that is a great friendship 625 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 1: because it is so unusual. It in a weird way, 626 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 1: kind of reminded me of the dynamic in Super Bad 627 00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:20,520 Speaker 1: to where they are friends, but they also kind of 628 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 1: have a falling out. There's some built up tension there, 629 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 1: so in some weird, bizarre way, I kind of had 630 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 1: that feeling of this is like Super Bad in Ireland, 631 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 1: but without a party. So if you are looking for 632 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 1: something to watch, that's rather peculiar. If you're interested in 633 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:38,239 Speaker 1: seeing all the Best Picture nominees and you don't want 634 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 1: to watch a drama, you want to watch a comedy. 635 00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 1: And I'll still use the term comedy a little bit 636 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:46,640 Speaker 1: loosely because it's not L O L. You're gonna wet 637 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 1: your pants watching this comedy. It's a very dead pain style, 638 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 1: which is what I'm into. But if all that sounds 639 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:54,719 Speaker 1: good to you, you can watch it on HBO Max 640 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:58,080 Speaker 1: and I would give banshees of innit sharing four out 641 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,000 Speaker 1: of five fingers. You gotta us to find out why 642 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 1: it's fingers. It's time to head down to movie trail 643 00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 1: Law Paul. Scream six is supposed to have a ghost 644 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:15,880 Speaker 1: face unlike any ghost face we've ever seen. It's supposed 645 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 1: to step up the screen franchise, and I often feel 646 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 1: whenever somebody tells you you're about to watch something unlike 647 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:25,240 Speaker 1: anything you've ever seen before, you know what I'm expecting. 648 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:29,280 Speaker 1: I'm expecting exactly what they've always been giving us, And 649 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 1: watching this trailer, I want to feel different. Actually, within 650 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:36,280 Speaker 1: the first sixty seconds of this I was excited. I 651 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 1: thought this trailer actually looked a little bit more sinister 652 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 1: than its predecessor, Scream five, which I felt really banked 653 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 1: on nostalgia bringing you back Nev Campbell, bringing back David R. Kuitt, 654 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:48,960 Speaker 1: But both of them are out in this movie. Nev 655 00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 1: Campbell actually isn't returning to Scream six because she hated 656 00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: the amount of money they offered her for Scream six 657 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 1: after being a part of this franchise for so long, 658 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 1: and she was like, I'm out. But it looks like 659 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 1: a lot of the newer cast are back for Scream six, 660 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 1: including Janet Ortega. And before I get into all my thoughts, 661 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 1: as you can hear, I'm pretty fired up about this one. 662 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:11,320 Speaker 1: And I'm not even the biggest Scream fan. I just 663 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 1: really want this franchise to do well for some reason. 664 00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 1: I'm just really begging on horror right now. But before 665 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 1: I get into my full thoughts on Scream six, here 666 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 1: is just a little bit of the new trailer. This 667 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:25,760 Speaker 1: isn't like any other ghost Face. What is this place 668 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:33,040 Speaker 1: a shrine? You've got to Laureamn, we execute him? Hello, 669 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:36,160 Speaker 1: let's play a game, you know, you're like the tenth 670 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 1: guy to try this right. It never works out for 671 00:33:38,560 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 1: the Tibetish from the Mask maybe, but there's never been 672 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:50,239 Speaker 1: one like me, Gail. I'm something different. That's why I'm 673 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 1: gonna shoot you in the head. So for me, the 674 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:56,280 Speaker 1: first sixty seconds of the trailer, I thought it did 675 00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 1: look a little bit more sinister. It had me more interested. 676 00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:02,680 Speaker 1: But once it got to that part, the entire exchange 677 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 1: between Ghost Face and Gael, I felt like it was 678 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:07,240 Speaker 1: a lot of the same. I felt like Scream five 679 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:09,759 Speaker 1: kind of had a soap opera vibe to it, and 680 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 1: I was looking a little bit more for the modern 681 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,799 Speaker 1: horror vibe because I think there's just so much room 682 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 1: for the classic slasher to really evolve into something a 683 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 1: little bit more sophisticated. Because screen movies were so big 684 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:27,240 Speaker 1: in the nineties, it really changed the trajectory of horror 685 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 1: in the nineties going into the two thousands, and I'm 686 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:32,800 Speaker 1: always just kind of fascinated with the fan base that 687 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:36,800 Speaker 1: surrounds Scream. When it comes to all the iconic horror killers. 688 00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 1: I still put Ghosts Face on that Mount Rushmore because 689 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 1: the face is so recognizable I've never really loved any 690 00:34:45,120 --> 00:34:48,360 Speaker 1: of the characters or storylines from the original one or 691 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 1: care to see them kind of play out the same 692 00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:53,360 Speaker 1: way I would like the Halloween franchise. I'm more interested 693 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,880 Speaker 1: in seeing Jamie Lee Curtis, you know, continue out of 694 00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:00,360 Speaker 1: that character than I am anybody in the Scream movies. 695 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 1: So the premise behind this movie is all of the 696 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,759 Speaker 1: survivors from the last round of killings they leave Woodsboro 697 00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:10,000 Speaker 1: and now are starting new in New York City. So 698 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:12,480 Speaker 1: I do like that aspect of getting out of that 699 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 1: small town, all this weird history that's supposed to mean something, 700 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,360 Speaker 1: but really to us as viewers, doesn't mean anything. Like 701 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,200 Speaker 1: I don't care about the history of Woodsboro. I don't 702 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:22,960 Speaker 1: want to see the same thing play out over and 703 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 1: over again. Put them in a big city. I think 704 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 1: that's where ghost Space can really shine. One part I 705 00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:30,279 Speaker 1: did really enjoy in this trailer that I thought was 706 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,920 Speaker 1: a cool visual effect whenever they are on the subway 707 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,360 Speaker 1: in New York and all of these people are in 708 00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:38,279 Speaker 1: different Halloween mask and there are a different version of 709 00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: people wearing the ghost Face mask, and they're trying to 710 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:44,600 Speaker 1: figure out who is the actual ghost Space killer. And 711 00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:47,080 Speaker 1: then I do love the little touch on the new 712 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:50,359 Speaker 1: ghost Space. It has like this weathered, worn down look. 713 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,560 Speaker 1: I think they are taking a page from Halloween and 714 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:57,920 Speaker 1: how they aged Michael Myers masks as all the reboots happened, 715 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 1: and I almost feel like that is what they need 716 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,839 Speaker 1: to give ghost Space an edge, make them less like 717 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,160 Speaker 1: some dude who can just be taken down by a 718 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:08,839 Speaker 1: group of teenagers, and give them a little bit more 719 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:12,360 Speaker 1: of that Michael Myers e vibe being able to revive 720 00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:14,840 Speaker 1: himself kind of like a zombie. Ghost Space is, I 721 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 1: think what we need. And I saw some people complaining 722 00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 1: about ghost Face having a gun in this trailer, not 723 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:25,040 Speaker 1: because of their views on guns, but because it kind 724 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:27,880 Speaker 1: of takes away from some of the creativity, and I 725 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:30,120 Speaker 1: would agree with that to an extent. I think if 726 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 1: you gave ghost Face a gun in the first or 727 00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 1: even the second movie, it would really take away from 728 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:38,000 Speaker 1: the appeal of what a slasher is supposed to be. 729 00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:40,480 Speaker 1: I think a lot of horror movies would just kind 730 00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:43,200 Speaker 1: of flat out be nothing if the village just had 731 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,239 Speaker 1: a gun, or even if they just shot him all 732 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:46,880 Speaker 1: the time. I think that is kind of an easy 733 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 1: way out that would just end the story. In any situation, 734 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:52,000 Speaker 1: I always shout a minutes all over, like end of story. 735 00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 1: It's a lot more visually appealing to see ghost Space 736 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 1: kill somebody with a garage door than him just shooting 737 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:01,920 Speaker 1: and taking some out. But when it comes to a 738 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:06,320 Speaker 1: sixth installment in a franchise and trying to create this darker, 739 00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:09,400 Speaker 1: edgy r ghost Face, I kind of like him with 740 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 1: a shotgun. I think the shotgun has a bit more 741 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,480 Speaker 1: of an edge than just a normal gun, and I'll 742 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:17,840 Speaker 1: even enjoy if they kind of play that up a 743 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,640 Speaker 1: little bit of him making a decision to use the gun, 744 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:24,120 Speaker 1: figuring out how to use it, and probably not keeping 745 00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:26,800 Speaker 1: it throughout the entire movie. But in that little part 746 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:29,279 Speaker 1: when they are in that convenience store, I'm okay with 747 00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:31,960 Speaker 1: Ghost Face having a gun. I think the trope is 748 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:34,520 Speaker 1: getting a little bit tired of him calling people when 749 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,520 Speaker 1: their home alone, showing up and then doing the whole 750 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 1: home invasion thing. We had that flashback and screen five, 751 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 1: but I don't think we need to keep revisiting that 752 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:46,000 Speaker 1: over and over again in every movie, even though they 753 00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:48,759 Speaker 1: already did it in the trailer. That does make me think, though, 754 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:51,640 Speaker 1: now in maybe it's because I'm an adult, but a 755 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:55,239 Speaker 1: screen movie is almost scarier to me now than it 756 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:57,239 Speaker 1: was when I was a kid, because I think it's 757 00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:00,920 Speaker 1: an adult. My biggest fear is a home invasion. I 758 00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:04,440 Speaker 1: don't really have a list of fears of like animals 759 00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:07,239 Speaker 1: or deep water or heights or anything like that, but 760 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:09,680 Speaker 1: home invasion. I don't care who you are, that is 761 00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:11,800 Speaker 1: something that's always going to scare you. And that is 762 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 1: the main reason why I can't go watch horror movies 763 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 1: with my wife Kelsey, because anything that remotely deals with 764 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 1: the home invasion, she is out. That's why she will 765 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:22,799 Speaker 1: not be watching Not Get the Cabin next week with me. 766 00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:26,920 Speaker 1: So my biggest question going into Scream six is can 767 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:30,320 Speaker 1: the entire movie capture that sinister vibe that it has 768 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,960 Speaker 1: within the first sixty seconds of this trailer? And how 769 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 1: much can this franchise really change in a year Screen 770 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 1: five was last year. Is it possible to have that 771 00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:43,200 Speaker 1: big of a tonal shift in one year to the next? 772 00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:46,880 Speaker 1: I hope. So I think this movie has potential. I 773 00:38:46,960 --> 00:38:49,280 Speaker 1: just hope it doesn't fizzle out within the first thirty 774 00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:51,760 Speaker 1: minutes of it and the third act kind of fall apart. 775 00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 1: Like it did in Scream five. But I do want 776 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:56,359 Speaker 1: to get the answer to my question. This movie comes 777 00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 1: out this year on March ten. I will go. I 778 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,360 Speaker 1: will watch it, but as of right now, I won't 779 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:05,400 Speaker 1: be happy about it. My excitement meter on a ten scale, 780 00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:09,320 Speaker 1: I'm probably at about a six, a little bit more 781 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:12,480 Speaker 1: excited than just like I don't care at all. I 782 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,120 Speaker 1: think this trailer won me over just a little bit. 783 00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 1: Otherwise I kind of would have been out after screen five. 784 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:20,319 Speaker 1: So I'm willing to give ghost Face at least one 785 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 1: more chance. And I say that as I'll probably be 786 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:28,400 Speaker 1: lining up for screen six. This makes edition of Movie 787 00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:32,320 Speaker 1: Bar and that's going to do it for another episode 788 00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,479 Speaker 1: here of the podcast. But before I go, I gotta 789 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:36,719 Speaker 1: give my listeners shout out of the week.

I would love to get Tom Hanks 809 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,640 Speaker 1: on the podcast. If anybody has a contact for him, 810 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 1: hit me up.
