And I'm telling you 10 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:21,400 Speaker 3: took the Christmas spirit out of me a little bit. 11 00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:23,360 Speaker 1: That's breaking code because I. 12 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:25,400 Speaker 3: Already don't like having to run errands during Christmas time 13 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 3: because everyone just loses their mind. It's like we all 14 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 3: forget that the meaning of Christmas is like joy and cheer, 15 00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 3: and everyone becomes a grimlin in public. 16 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:35,920 Speaker 1: It's like, you know how all rules kind of go 17 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:37,199 Speaker 1: out the window at the airport. 18 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, but I almost feel like there's more social decorum 19 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:42,639 Speaker 3: at the airport than there is at a Target over 20 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 3: Christmas or the mall. 21 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:46,320 Speaker 1: Sometimes I feel people just kind of lose their minds 22 00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:48,559 Speaker 1: in the airport and you act differently and I give 23 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:52,160 Speaker 1: people grace.

I would 86 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: say some of the R rated Christmas movies were ones 87 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: I'm a later adopter of. And this is the newest one, 88 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: well not the newest one, but the one that had 89 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: been out a while I hadn't seen, probably would have 90 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: never seen. But you love this movie. You love the 91 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: Bad Moms franchise. 92 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 3: It makes me giggle so hard. It's just it's so good. 93 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 3: The second one, Bad Mom's Chrism. This the cast is amazing. 94 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 3: You have all their moms. It's like them dealing with 95 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 3: the holidays. I mean everything about it, from the tree, 96 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 3: she steals, from the foot locker, Kenny g. 97 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 2: Just all of it. 98 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, And the reason I wanted to do R rated 99 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: Christmas movies is because I feel that they are an 100 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: underappreciated subgenre of Christmas movie because you have your wholesome ones, 101 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: you have your classics, you have your black and white movies. 102 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: But there's something about a rawchy Christmas movie that's just 103 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 1: like a juxtaposition of here's a holiday that is so 104 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 1: coveted and wholesome and then having people curse and fight 105 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 1: and there's I guess there's not nudity in this one, 106 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: but to be vulgar, there's almost almost nudity. 107 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 3: There's a waxer and then you have a Santa in 108 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 3: like a speedo. They're almost nudity in this one. 109 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: So I enjoyed this movie watching it every single year now. 110 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: So I decided to include it in my top five 111 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:58,359 Speaker 1: because we have a repertoire of movies now that we 112 00:04:58,400 --> 00:04:59,800 Speaker 1: watch every single Christmas and this is not. 113 00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 4: One it is. 114 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 2: It was the first one we watched this year. 115 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's kicked it off. 116 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:09,119 Speaker 3: It's funny and it's Christmasy, but it's not like watch 117 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,599 Speaker 3: it on like Christmas Eve, you can, but like it 118 00:05:11,680 --> 00:05:13,279 Speaker 3: kind of kick starts the holiday season. 119 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: And I have a way that I like to watch 120 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: Christmas movies. I like to roll them out in a 121 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: specific way. I like to start with the funnier, more 122 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: uplifting ones that you don't have to me, you don't 123 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: feel super like Christmas yet, And then I have the 124 00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 1: Christmas movies that feel a little bit more warm and cozy, 125 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: and I associate with, Okay, this is when the entire 126 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: world is shut down. I can only focus on this, 127 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,360 Speaker 1: and they feel more like the season to Christmas that 128 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: we save those closer to the holiday. I think we 129 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 1: can even still watch them after Christmas. But I feel 130 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 1: you gotta start with funny ones, so I always like 131 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 1: to throw in the R rated movies early on. At 132 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 1: number four, I have Friday After Next from two thousand 133 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: and two, which you can watch on tub, which is 134 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: low key one of my favorite streaming services. You know. 135 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: I love Famy because it's free. All you have to 136 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: do is watch commercials and there are a lot of 137 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: I would say forgotten movies on there, movies that I 138 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: randomly saw on the two thousands of think where can 139 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 1: I watch that movie. It's probably on tub and Friday 140 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,720 Speaker 1: After Next is the last Friday movie they made, and 141 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 1: the plot of this one is essentially the plot of 142 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 1: that new movie coming out one of them days in January. Goney, 143 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 1: whenever that trailer came out, I was like, Oh, that 144 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 1: very much feels like they're almost remaking Friday without remaking Friday. 145 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 1: And in Friday After Next, that's what happens to them. 146 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,359 Speaker 1: They have their apartment broken into at the beginning of 147 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: the movie by Ghetto Santa. He steals all their stuff, 148 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 1: steals their money out of their speakers, and then they're 149 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: running the risk of getting evicted. And I remember the 150 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: first time I watched this movie, I thought it was 151 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: hilarious because I love the original Friday movie. My mom 152 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 1: loves the original Friday movie. 153 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 3: You and my family, when we first started dating and 154 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 3: you met, my family bonded over loving the Friday movies. 155 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 1: It's a great movie. My mom will quote that movie 156 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 1: at work and people are like, why do you know 157 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 1: Friday and the sequel to that Friday After Next? I can't. 158 00:06:58,200 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 1: It's not the same as the first one before. Some reason, 159 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,160 Speaker 1: I like this one more because I guess it's Christmas 160 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,479 Speaker 1: Y still funny. I don't know if they're ever going 161 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: to make another Friday movie. Apparently it's still in the 162 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 1: works with ice Cube, but this has one of my 163 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: favorite comedic scenes from an R rated Christmas movie of 164 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,679 Speaker 1: all time.

I would say, if 176 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 1: you remove Christmas and the fact that he's saying it, 177 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 1: it's still just a straight on good action movie. And 178 00:07:58,040 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: I didn't want to give this movie a chance because 179 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 1: I thought it looked kind of dumb, kind of the 180 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 1: same way I felt Red One look pretty dumb. 181 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 2: You refuse to watch out. 182 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: We still haven't watched it. At the moment of recording 183 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: this episode, we have still not watched. 184 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 2: Went too hard. It's giving argyle almost. 185 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, and it did really well on Amazon Prime, like 186 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 1: it rolled out and a lot of people watched it. 187 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 1: We're gonna watch it eventually. I feel at this point, 188 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 1: or should I not watch it at all? Because I 189 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 1: went so hard on hating that movie. 190 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 2: I mean, we could watch it, we could watch it, 191 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 2: not tell. 192 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: Anyone anybody, but I kind of thought I kind of 193 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: felt the same way whenever they were making this movie. 194 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 1: Didn't see it in theaters. But last Christmas I watched 195 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 1: it and I was like, that's actually a great movie. 196 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,560 Speaker 1: I'm kind of disappointed I didn't go see it in theaters. 197 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 1: John Liquizamo is a good villain in that, and I 198 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: think David Harbor, I mean, he's kind of becoming an 199 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 1: action star. He's gonna be in The Thunderbolts next year, 200 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 1: so he kind of has that action I mean yeah, 201 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 1: and he was in obviously Black Widow, so I thought 202 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: he was good in it. I think it hasn't become 203 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 1: one that I have rewatched yet, so I don't know. 204 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 1: It's a watch every year. 205 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 3: Movie but it comes in number three. Interesting, but you 206 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:10,439 Speaker 3: haven't rewatched it. 207 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I really liked it, and I think it's 208 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: because it doesn't feel like a Christmas movie. It just 209 00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 1: feels like a good action movie. So I don't think 210 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: necessarily every Christmas movie has to be one that you 211 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,760 Speaker 1: rewatch every single year. Eventually I'll rewatch it again, but 212 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: I think it was so impactful the first time I 213 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 1: watched it really resonated with me. Have that one at 214 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 1: number three at number two from twenty sixteen. You can 215 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: watch it on Hulu Office Christmas Party. 216 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 2: God, it's so funny. 217 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 1: It is so funny. 218 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 2: It's so funny. 219 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,840 Speaker 1: Twenty sixteen was a very, I felt, pivotal year for 220 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: me watching and reviewing movies. That was kind of where 221 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 1: I got my start of reviewing movies on Snapchat. And 222 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 1: I watched so many movies in twenty sixteen. But I 223 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 1: did not watch this movie when it came out. I 224 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 1: just never really thought about it, and it feels very 225 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen to me. With the soundtrack, even the cast, 226 00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 1: like TJ. Miller in this movie, JS Baman, the entire 227 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 1: it just feels very twenty sixteen to me. Which right 228 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 1: now in twenty I guess the end of twenty twenty four, 229 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 1: going into twenty twenty five. Sometimes you don't really yet 230 00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: to be like five to seven years away from a 231 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,400 Speaker 1: year to feel like, ah, what that year was, Like. 232 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 2: I refuse to believe that was eight years ago. 233 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, it feels like it was last week because. 234 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 2: That's when I graduated college. 235 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:24,360 Speaker 1: Nope, I refuse so now being removed from it, I 236 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 1: look at even fashion choices from twenty sixteen, like all 237 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 1: that feels very twenty sixteen. 238 00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,080 Speaker 3: My pictures from twenty sixteen, I look, I'm like that 239 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 3: was a choice. 240 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 1: It's a very significant time now, which is all affinity. 241 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:37,120 Speaker 2: Scarves for still a thing. 242 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 3: We all had them. Maybe we're still rocking them, and 243 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 3: that's fine. My mom I did earlier this year when 244 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 3: we went to New York. She came to Nashville first, 245 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 3: and she was like rearranging her suitcase and I was like, 246 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 3: you are not taking that to New York. I was like, 247 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:53,680 Speaker 3: we're getting rid of that, We're leaving that behind. In 248 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:55,439 Speaker 3: twenty sixteen, we're leaving that behind. 249 00:10:55,920 --> 00:11:00,080 Speaker 1: I think it's hard for us as millennials that, but 250 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: that was a very formative time. 251 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,960 Speaker 2: For our life closer by the Chainsmokers. 252 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: And like everything then felt so new. It takes me 253 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 1: back that if you got really into that time and 254 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: associating that with a very good part of your life, 255 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 1: it's easy to still live in that. I feel that 256 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 1: I lived in twenty sixteen, probably until the pandemic. 257 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 3: Twenty sixteen was simultaneously it had. The first half of 258 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 3: the year was like the best ever in the second 259 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:26,959 Speaker 3: half of the year was terrible. First half of the 260 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,439 Speaker 3: year was my last semester of college. I was taking 261 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 3: like three classes. We were going to Happy Hour like 262 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 3: every other day. I was working just enough to like 263 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:37,440 Speaker 3: buy some groceries and pay for my gas. 264 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:38,560 Speaker 2: Was great. I had nothing to do. 265 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 3: I took up a running I got really into running, 266 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 3: and then the second half of the year it took 267 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 3: my first ever post grad job and it just did 268 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 3: not work out. So it's funny that I look at 269 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:48,719 Speaker 3: that year with such a like druxtaposition of like that 270 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:50,240 Speaker 3: was the best of times and it was the worst 271 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 3: of times. 272 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 1: It was a hard year for me in terms that 273 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: at the beginning of I mean kind of like you 274 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 1: split it into two. At the beginning of the year, 275 00:11:58,120 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 1: I had no idea what I was going to do. 276 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 1: And then right around the time I was graduating, I 277 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,680 Speaker 1: got the job offer to come here, and then in 278 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 1: May twenty sixteen, I moved here and pretty much hit 279 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 1: the ground running. But it was kind of that I 280 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,960 Speaker 1: have no idea what I'm gonna do when I finished college. 281 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 1: I've had this plan for years now, I don't know 282 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:18,320 Speaker 1: if it's going to work out. And eventually the timing 283 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: did work out, and within me graduating, I in about 284 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 1: a week packed up my entire car and moved here. 285 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 1: And then I was like, oh, whole new life now. 286 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:28,679 Speaker 1: And then the rest of that year is kind of 287 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: a blur, but I just associated with me going to 288 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 1: the movies a lot and reviewing a lot of movies 289 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 1: on Snapchat, which was a lot bigger at the time. 290 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I guess it's bigger now with teenagers, but 291 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 1: I feel like with adults now, we don't really use it. 292 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 1: Remember we had that streak forever. 293 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 3: Oh we almost had a thousand, but what happened It 294 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 3: was Christmas? Yeah, it was when that explosion happened here. 295 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,719 Speaker 1: We lost cell like no cell, and we lost. 296 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 3: Our Snapchat streak, like even living together. 297 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 2: What I forgot about. That's why we lost it. 298 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's so I brought it up. Speaking of Christmas, 299 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,439 Speaker 1: that was such a bummer Christmas because we had all 300 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 1: these plans. We had just cooked breakfast or a brunch 301 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:05,959 Speaker 1: or whatever you call it, whatever the time was. 302 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 3: I guess we couldn't go home because that was COVID 303 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 3: and I think someone in my family had gotten sick, 304 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 3: and so we were like, we'll just stay here because 305 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 3: we're going to road trip anyways.

And it 365 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 1: is a very inappropriate movie and sometimes I would feel 366 00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: uncomfortable watching, Like I probably wouldn't watch this with my 367 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 1: just because I would feel uncomfortable during some scenes.

And I think you experienced 444 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 1: that more now because you've always been the older sibling. 445 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: But with my family you experienced like, oh I'm the youngest, see. 446 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 3: And then you have it the other way with my family.

But looking back at him two 458 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 1: thousand and seven in this movie, I kind of forget 459 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 1: that he was in Thor he's kind of like hijacked. 460 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was such a good show on Apple. 461 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 1: I feel like they should have made him James Bond. 462 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,680 Speaker 1: I feel like he got robbed out of that role. 463 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 1: But he is like a huge star but has all 464 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:26,720 Speaker 1: these little nugget roles throughout his career. But yeah, again, 465 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 1: the big house, it just kind of comes back to that. 466 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 3: You're right, it's all yeah, no one's because even like 467 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 3: the smaller houses are like portrayed like in Bad Mom's Christmas, 468 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 3: like Catherine Han and her son live in a smaller 469 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:41,640 Speaker 3: house and she's like the one that doesn't celebrate Christmas 470 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:46,439 Speaker 3: or house like the lesser than Christmas subliminal messaging of 471 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:47,600 Speaker 3: nice houses. 472 00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:49,879 Speaker 1: The nice houses because they feel cozy. When you have 473 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 1: the big house and then you have all the people 474 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,440 Speaker 1: filling it during Christmas, that just feels like ah, Chris. 475 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,119 Speaker 1: I mean, even going back to like Christmas vacation in 476 00:20:56,119 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 1: the Grizzwold House another good house Callisters. 477 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 3: Flowed that thing up with life Oh, yeah, we haven't 478 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 3: watched that one yet. 479 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:03,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, we haven't. 480 00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 2: Still have quite a few to watch. 481 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 1: The one I am looking forward to you that I 482 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,639 Speaker 1: would add to your list is nothing like The Holidays, 483 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,159 Speaker 1: which is also older siblings coming home for. 484 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 3: Their last siblings though so I made it.

Also, out of all these Christmas movies, it's 488 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 1: the one I see myself and my family represented the most. 489 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 1: That is another one that I had not watched until 490 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 1: you were like, we got to watch this movie, and 491 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 1: that one has become one of my favorites. I would say, 492 00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 1: now that's like a top five Christmas movie for me 493 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 1: that I look forward to watching every single year. 494 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 3: But that one we have to watch closer to Christmas. 495 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 1: That is a closer to Christmas movie that is either 496 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 1: twenty third or twenty fourth, like close to Christmas. I 497 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:49,600 Speaker 1: guess we're probably doing, yeah, traveling, so maybe earlier than that. 498 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 1: It does feel weird this year with Christmas being on Wednesday. Yeah, 499 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: and like how the work week ends the time recording 500 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 1: this at all halready happened already or guess at the 501 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,200 Speaker 1: time I put this out, it have all already happened, 502 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:02,880 Speaker 1: or see, I have the Christmas brain right now. 503 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 3: We are recording this before, but when it comes out 504 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 3: it will be closer. 505 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:11,359 Speaker 1: I forget how time works. Apparently apparently when you're listening 506 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 1: to this, it's the twenty third and all this stuff 507 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 1: would have already happened already. But it just feels like 508 00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:19,399 Speaker 1: once the work weekends you get to Christmas, it just 509 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 1: feels so much closer. And then Christmas in the middle 510 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 1: of the week. I just feel we're gonna have a 511 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:26,120 Speaker 1: weird start to twenty twenty five. 512 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:29,440 Speaker 3: I had people emailing being like, so, does anyone want 513 00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 3: to meet on the thirtieth?

I feel like 535 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 1: that one is kind of in the middle after we've 536 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:28,160 Speaker 1: gotten our comedies out of the way. 537 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:30,960 Speaker 2: We watched that one Saturday after we dealt with everyone 538 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:31,640 Speaker 2: at the moment. 539 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 1: That's a good calming movie because we came home but. 540 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 3: We just kind of stared at each other and we 541 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:39,400 Speaker 3: were like, I guess we should watch something happy. 542 00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: Elf, because we Yeah, even though it is a comedy, 543 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:45,160 Speaker 1: it's not like how I would associate some of these 544 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:49,000 Speaker 1: other Christmas comedies that we've been talking about. But it's 545 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 1: so it's such a classic and we've seen it so 546 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 1: many times that to me, it feels like watching Christmas wallpaper, 547 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 1: Like it's just there, it's warm, it's comforting, you know 548 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 1: what you're gonna get, and it's just like you just 549 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 1: take it in. 550 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 2: We also, so we still need to rewatch Daddy's Home 551 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,359 Speaker 2: too as well. Ah yeah, it's a good Christmas one, 552 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 2: a good. 553 00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 1: Dumb Christmas one for me. I think my favorite Christmas 554 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,200 Speaker 1: movie as a kid was Christmas Eve on Sesame Street. 555 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:16,880 Speaker 2: It's still your favorite Christmas movie. 556 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 1: I still love it. Which it's not even like a 557 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 1: real movie. It didn't come out in theaters or anything. 558 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 1: It's really just a Sesame Street Christmas special. But I 559 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: associate that with my family now because we were never 560 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 1: really home during Christmas. We would always leave to Mexico 561 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 1: like the twenty second, like as soon as I was 562 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 1: done with school and I had those two weeks off, 563 00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 1: we were gone. So we would do small gifts the 564 00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:42,439 Speaker 1: day before we left, and then later once we actually 565 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:44,600 Speaker 1: started celebrating Christmas and staying in the sights. 566 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:47,200 Speaker 2: Why'd you just become Australian. 567 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. I've been diving into an Australian accent recently. Okay, 568 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:55,400 Speaker 1: staying into the sights all right. But we would watch 569 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 1: Christmas eve on because we watched it when I was 570 00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 1: a kid. But then it was our tradition of when 571 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 1: we would unwrapped gifts. 572 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 2: I was gonna say, we still have it on it 573 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 2: your yeah. 574 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:04,679 Speaker 1: Family, every time we start doing gifts, we throw on 575 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: Christmas Eve on Sesame Street because it's funny. And I 576 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 1: love you about the meeting of Christmas because I always 577 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: go back to the Burton Earni situation where they each 578 00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,320 Speaker 1: sell their prize possessions to get somebody else a thing 579 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 1: for their prize possession and then neither of them have 580 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 1: their prize possession. Oh that's good stuff right there. That 581 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:24,399 Speaker 1: teaches you all about Christmas. 582 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 3: I love Sesame Street. It's a great show. 583 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 1: You see. You might go away because it's on HBO 584 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:34,479 Speaker 1: and they have currently not renewed it. 585 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 2: Why would you break this to me on the podcast. 586 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: Because that's sad because we were I was literally singing 587 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 1: a Sesame Street song earlier, I got a new way 588 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,960 Speaker 1: to walk, Walk Walk, and you were like, oh, Sesame 589 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 1: Street and it's weird. How much stuff I actually remember 590 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:52,560 Speaker 1: from that watching it growing up. 591 00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:54,199 Speaker 2: My little brother would watch. 592 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:59,199 Speaker 3: He was picking into Elmo's World and there was a 593 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 3: I'll say, hello. 594 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 2: Try an egg on the cement? Did so call day? Yeah? 595 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:08,680 Speaker 2: It literally is just stuck in my brain like. 596 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:12,920 Speaker 1: That is how my older brother and sister learned English. 597 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:14,399 Speaker 2: Can't you sessme street? 598 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, they can't. I don't think they will. I think 599 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 1: it's one of those things where it's an institution that 600 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:22,119 Speaker 1: even if they lost by not resigning, it would get 601 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 1: picked up somewhere else. 602 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 2: I can't believe you brought this news to me here. 603 00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: This is I just just read it like a few 604 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 1: days ago, and I was waiting on me because I'm like, 605 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 1: they're not going to get rid of mean time to 606 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,399 Speaker 1: go process this all right? Well that is all our 607 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: Christmas talk. Merry Christmas. Everybody say obsessed to my street? 608 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:39,959 Speaker 2: Can I start a like change dot org petition? 609 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:53,119 Speaker 1: Yeah? Bring back Elmo. Let's get into it now. A 610 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:56,919 Speaker 1: spoiler free movie review of carry On. Sorry Jason Bateman 611 00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 1: and Taron Egerton. This movie is essentially die Hard in 612 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,159 Speaker 1: an airport, and while I was watching carry On, it 613 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 1: reminded me how impactful die Hard was on a genre. 614 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: And we're at a time in the year where a 615 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,359 Speaker 1: lot of people are saying is die Hard a Christmas 616 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 1: movie or not? And after watching carry On, I am 617 00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 1: fully committing to Diehard. It's a Christmas movie to me, 618 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 1: as long as the movie takes place around Christmas. It 619 00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,479 Speaker 1: is a Christmas movie. And I say that because for 620 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 1: the most part, Christmas movies are really cheesy and the 621 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 1: only thing they really bank on is you watching them 622 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 1: around Christmas time and building this relationship with them. Because 623 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 1: Christmas movies at their core aren't good movies. I enjoy them. 624 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,600 Speaker 1: There is a comfort to them. They are predictable. But 625 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: if you just picked apart Christmas movies for having a 626 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 1: good first third at like all the things that make 627 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 1: a movie good and make a movie impactful, they're not 628 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 1: inside a Christmas movie. But I don't think that is 629 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:56,880 Speaker 1: the purpose of Christmas movies. So there are people who 630 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 1: want to fight for certain movies to say those are 631 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,479 Speaker 1: Christmas movies because there's a Christmas stree in it. At 632 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 1: one point, this person is wearing green, they reference Christmas. 633 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:07,880 Speaker 1: Therefore is it a Christmas movie? I think people say 634 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 1: that is because if you don't enjoy that formula, you 635 00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 1: don't like predictability, you have a rough time around the 636 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,679 Speaker 1: Holidays finding a movie of any kind of substance or 637 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 1: fitting into what you enjoy. So I think that is 638 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: why there are such a passionate group calling Diehard a 639 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 1: Christmas movie. And I think what Carrie On did was okay. Hey, 640 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 1: people debate on whether or not Diehard is a Christmas movie. 641 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: We're gonna make a movie just like that and center 642 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 1: it on Christmas Eve. Therefore, this is a Christmas movie. 643 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 1: So to me, carry On is going to be a 644 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 1: new Christmas classic. Now is it the best movie you 645 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 1: ever know? But now that it is established itself as 646 00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 1: a Christmas movie, I'm going to put this in that genre. 647 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 1: So I think going into it, I guess I had 648 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 1: higher expectations as far as the level of acting. Karen 649 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 1: Egerton the read actor, great singer, great performer, and I 650 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 1: just thought from seeing him in the case Kingsman movie, 651 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 1: seeing him in Rocketman, that there was going to be 652 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 1: a little bit more depth to his character than you have. 653 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 1: Jason Bateman, who kind of a chameleon now and I 654 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 1: think Ozark we saw a much different side of him. 655 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 1: He's an anti hero. He's somebody you root for even 656 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 1: though he's not doing good things, and he's done things 657 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 1: like arrested, development off his Christmas party Game Night, and 658 00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 1: I think for the most part, when you look at 659 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,280 Speaker 1: Jason Bateman, you think comedy, but I really think, oh, 660 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 1: he's a good actor. And his character is convincing in 661 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 1: this movie. So you have two great actors, Tarren Egerton 662 00:29:32,680 --> 00:29:35,880 Speaker 1: Jason Bateman. I thought I was gonna get a little 663 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 1: bit more on the level of acting. But if you 664 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 1: look at the plot of this movie, if you look 665 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 1: at the story, the action, the element of you have 666 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: to suspend disbelief to enjoy this movie. I think what 667 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 1: was on the page in this script doesn't matter who 668 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:53,440 Speaker 1: you put in this movie. You can't really make it 669 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 1: any more believable. You couldn't get Leonardo DiCaprio in there, 670 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 1: you couldn't get Meryl Streep in there and make this 671 00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 1: a more believable movie. So I think with me having 672 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 1: expectations on the level of acting, but then also realizing 673 00:30:06,400 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 1: that this is a Christmas movie, I was able to 674 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:13,240 Speaker 1: settle into this movie and find it super entertaining. Is 675 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 1: it a great movie? No? Is it one I really recommend. 676 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: I think I do, and I think it's a good 677 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 1: movie for people who don't like Christmas movies but need 678 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 1: something Christmasy to watch around this time of year. Because 679 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 1: I still think that speG thirteen on Netflix easily accessible 680 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 1: to people. I think a lot of people are going 681 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 1: to give this movie a chance around the holidays. I 682 00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 1: think it is a good pick to put on and 683 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 1: you can please most people in your family. I start 684 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,959 Speaker 1: thinking about my dad in these situations, who doesn't like movies. 685 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 1: I don't think he's ever just sat down by himself 686 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 1: and intentionally watched a movie. He's been in the room 687 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,000 Speaker 1: when we watch movies. He'll go to the movie theater 688 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 1: with us, but he will go to sleep as soon 689 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,479 Speaker 1: as he has done with his popcorn. I think if 690 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 1: we put carry On on the TV around Christmas time, 691 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: he would watch it. He would get invested in it. 692 00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 1: I think you could follow along the plot line pretty easily. 693 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 1: So if I'm putting my dad in this room, I'm 694 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 1: thinking of families across America, families across the world watching 695 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 1: carry On. I think there is something for everybody, except 696 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 1: the people who don't like movies that are really unbelievable. 697 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 1: And there is an interesting dynamic in this movie because 698 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:29,000 Speaker 1: the whole plot line is Jason Bateman plays a bad guy. 699 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 1: He is trying to get this suitcase onto this plane. 700 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 1: You don't know what is in it, you don't know 701 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:41,840 Speaker 1: his intentions, but he uses tered Egerton as the conduit 702 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:45,239 Speaker 1: to get this bag on because he blackmails them. He 703 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 1: threatens him, he has somebody go through drop this earpiece 704 00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: in a bin. He puts it in his ear because 705 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 1: he gets a text from Jason Bateman, and then the 706 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 1: whole thing unfolds, and that is essentially the whole movie. 707 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 1: I guess I die Hard, but in an airport where 708 00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 1: he is trying to save everybody on the plane, save 709 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 1: everybody in this airport, and be the hero. Taron Egerton 710 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:06,560 Speaker 1: is kind of not down on his luck, but he 711 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 1: is in a low point of his life, even though 712 00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: he has a girlfriend who also works at the airport. 713 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 1: She's pregnant, which that plot line was a little bit 714 00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 1: cliched of Oh, here's a guy just trying to make 715 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 1: it in this world. His girlfriend is pregnant. Now he 716 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 1: has something to lose. So I think, going back to 717 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 1: what I said earlier, it's just everything that was on 718 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 1: the page that was a little bit unbelievable. But I 719 00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 1: think once you settle into that and take it for 720 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 1: what it is, it is an entertaining ride. But don't 721 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,520 Speaker 1: go into it, or you shouldn't have gotten into it 722 00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 1: if you've already seen it expecting it to be based 723 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:42,760 Speaker 1: in reality, because if you've ever been in an airport, 724 00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 1: if you've ever taken a flight at any point in 725 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 1: your life, you know how secure it is there. You 726 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 1: can't leave a bag unattended without somebody flagging it. You 727 00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:56,360 Speaker 1: can't do anything in an airport without somebody noticing. They're 728 00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:59,880 Speaker 1: always watching. They will shut the place down if they're 729 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 1: anything suspicious that. It's just the world we live in now. 730 00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 1: Watching this movie, all that goes out the window because 731 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 1: anything goes in this airport. There are people running around. 732 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 1: There are a lot of crazy things that happened that 733 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:16,280 Speaker 1: if you witness this in an airport, the plot wouldn't 734 00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 1: have moved along because Okay, game's over. That's it, We're 735 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 1: done here, everybody go home. There is no more threat. 736 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:26,160 Speaker 1: I did start putting myself into the situation of if 737 00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:29,880 Speaker 1: I was tearing Eggerston's character and I was being blackmailed 738 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 1: I was a TSA agent. My initial thing was I 739 00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 1: just take the earpiece out, Like, if I take it out, 740 00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:37,600 Speaker 1: I know they can text me, but I could ignore that. 741 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 1: I don't think I would keep it in the whole time. 742 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:42,360 Speaker 1: Oh you're threatening me on this earpiece? There goes out. 743 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:44,720 Speaker 1: What are you gonna do now, But then I guess 744 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 1: you have this need to be a hero. I'm sure 745 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 1: they would just ramp up the threats more and more, 746 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 1: and they probably wouldn't in there. They would keep texting 747 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:56,720 Speaker 1: you even the next day and the next day. I 748 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 1: don't think that that would be sufficient enough to get 749 00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:03,360 Speaker 1: this level of criminal out, but that is my immediate reaction. Hey, 750 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 1: just take this at your piece out end of movie. 751 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:07,320 Speaker 1: But of course if you did that, you wouldn't have 752 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:10,719 Speaker 1: a movie. So you do have to suspend disbelief while 753 00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:13,480 Speaker 1: watching this movie. And if you're not in a position 754 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:15,440 Speaker 1: to do that, you're not gonna have a good time. 755 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say it's the same way I approach a 756 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,720 Speaker 1: Fast and the Furious movie at this point where first couple, 757 00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:23,600 Speaker 1: even the first three, we're still based in reality, but 758 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,880 Speaker 1: now by Fast ten they are essentially superheroes. It's so 759 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 1: over the top, and that is what we go for 760 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:31,040 Speaker 1: now watching a Fast and the Furious movie. We want 761 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,839 Speaker 1: to see big, dumb action and something that could never 762 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:37,799 Speaker 1: happen in a million years, Like dom Treto is not 763 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,719 Speaker 1: going down the canyon with it fully in flames, and 764 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 1: he's gonna ride off on a car. Just no scratches, 765 00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:46,839 Speaker 1: be totally good, that's not gonna happen. But you don't 766 00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:49,440 Speaker 1: really question that those movies. It is not that level 767 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:53,279 Speaker 1: of unbelievable, And I think that's why it just kind 768 00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:55,839 Speaker 1: of walks that line. If they would have refined it 769 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,680 Speaker 1: just a little bit and made it a little bit 770 00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:00,719 Speaker 1: more gritty. I mean, and if you look at the 771 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,319 Speaker 1: intentions of Jason Bateman's character, who at the beginning of 772 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:06,440 Speaker 1: the movie is very threatening and ominous, I think if 773 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 1: they would have kept that tone from that opening scene, 774 00:35:09,120 --> 00:35:11,880 Speaker 1: it would have had a much different vibe. And it 775 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:13,840 Speaker 1: started just to feel a little bit too cat and 776 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 1: Mouse and a little bit too like oh eighties action movie, 777 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:19,719 Speaker 1: and maybe not rush some of the things, because I 778 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,799 Speaker 1: felt that some of the details of the plot were 779 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 1: kind of crammed in there. They didn't really know how 780 00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:28,719 Speaker 1: to land the plane. As far as the plot in 781 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 1: this movie where it was good, I was invested. I 782 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:35,600 Speaker 1: was there heartbeat and riding with the action, and then 783 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 1: they were like, Okay, what are we gonna do here? 784 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:39,799 Speaker 1: How is this movie going to end? Is it going 785 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 1: to have a bummer ending? Is it going to have 786 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 1: a happy ending? I think at the end of it, 787 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:45,839 Speaker 1: they were just trying to figure out how to tie 788 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:48,359 Speaker 1: this whole thing up and just slapped an ending on there. 789 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:51,200 Speaker 1: I bet from what they shot from this movie, there 790 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,400 Speaker 1: has to be an alternate ending. It just feels like 791 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 1: one of those movies that if you had it on DVD, 792 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:58,360 Speaker 1: they would say, here's the ending that you saw in theaters, 793 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,840 Speaker 1: and here's the alternate end, and here's this other alternate ending. 794 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:04,759 Speaker 1: Out of all the movies that came out in Netflix 795 00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,760 Speaker 1: this year, this is the only one that I felt 796 00:36:08,200 --> 00:36:10,279 Speaker 1: I could have gone to the theater to see and 797 00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:14,120 Speaker 1: had a better experience. I think this is as close 798 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:17,920 Speaker 1: as they've been this year, not of all time. I'd 799 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:19,640 Speaker 1: say the first time they had this was with bird 800 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 1: Box back in the day. But this was the first 801 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:24,000 Speaker 1: time this year that I felt, man, they could have 802 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:26,919 Speaker 1: put this movie out in theaters, maybe made some money 803 00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:30,439 Speaker 1: at the box office, because I think it was at 804 00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:33,160 Speaker 1: that quality level. You had the stars attached to it, 805 00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 1: you had the compelling plot, you had the twist and turns, 806 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:40,360 Speaker 1: you had the big action. The ridiculous of course mixed 807 00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:42,560 Speaker 1: in there as well. But this was the first time 808 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:45,879 Speaker 1: I felt from a Netflix original in twenty twenty four 809 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:49,960 Speaker 1: that they were actually making something impactful, and of all 810 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 1: the movies they put out this year, I think this 811 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:55,359 Speaker 1: will be one that people will revisit because it is 812 00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:58,279 Speaker 1: a Christmas action movie. Next year they could bump it 813 00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:00,160 Speaker 1: up there at the top, and I think people will 814 00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:04,359 Speaker 1: rewatch it after the holiday season, maybe not as much 815 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:07,799 Speaker 1: because it is still rooted in Christmas time, and I 816 00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:10,640 Speaker 1: think they were kind of banking on that. But if 817 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 1: I would have seen this in theaters, I think I 818 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 1: would have enjoyed it more and maybe even rated it higher, 819 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 1: because it kind of has that feeling of, oh, if 820 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 1: you watch this on the big screen, fully engulfed in 821 00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:24,719 Speaker 1: the sound and the vision of it, maybe it would 822 00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 1: have hit a little bit harder and felt a little 823 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:29,759 Speaker 1: less cheesy, just maybe. So for that reason, I did 824 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 1: mump it down a little bit. And again, I know 825 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,360 Speaker 1: some people will watch this movie and think this is stupid. 826 00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:37,359 Speaker 1: But even if you think it's stupid, I still think 827 00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 1: it's a movie that you end up completing. May hate 828 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:42,279 Speaker 1: it by the end of it, but it is that 829 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:44,920 Speaker 1: engaging and the story just keeps giving you piece by 830 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:47,480 Speaker 1: piece of like, oh, well, I gotta see what happens. Now, Well, 831 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:49,120 Speaker 1: now that I've seen what happens, I gotta figure out 832 00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:50,800 Speaker 1: what they're gonna do here, And before you know it, 833 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 1: you've ended up watching the whole movie. So for carry On, 834 00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:55,440 Speaker 1: I thought I was going to a little bit more, 835 00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 1: but still enjoy it. Recommend it if you haven't seen 836 00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 1: it yet, especially if you have somebody you like my 837 00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:03,759 Speaker 1: dad in your life who doesn't really like Christmas movies, 838 00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 1: doesn't really like any movie, and just want something a 839 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:08,799 Speaker 1: little bit mindless and fun and some cool action and 840 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:11,719 Speaker 1: fight sequences. For carry On, I give it three point 841 00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:22,080 Speaker 1: five out of five suitcases. It's time to head down 842 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 1: to movie Mike Trailer Paul, I'm for the first time 843 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,239 Speaker 1: ever going in and blind to a trailer park. We're 844 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 1: about to talk about the new Superman trailer, the much 845 00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 1: anticipated Superman trailer. Rarely do you see people online getting 846 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:42,479 Speaker 1: so hype for a trailer, just the trailer. There's only 847 00:38:42,520 --> 00:38:45,320 Speaker 1: one other trailer that I'll talk about later that I 848 00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:48,920 Speaker 1: can remember the exact place, the exact time I was 849 00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 1: at in my life for a trailer, but there was 850 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,480 Speaker 1: so much hype around this one. And to let you 851 00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 1: in on when I'm recording this. It is Thursday, the 852 00:38:57,200 --> 00:39:00,160 Speaker 1: day the trailer dropped at the time of recording, as 853 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,200 Speaker 1: it came out eight hours ago. I've had a crazy day. 854 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:04,359 Speaker 1: This is the first time I've been able to sit 855 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:06,640 Speaker 1: down and watch this trailer. I've been avoiding it all day. 856 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:11,759 Speaker 1: Four thirty pm Central Time. The trailer at the moment 857 00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:14,799 Speaker 1: of recording this has thirteen million views, which is a 858 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:19,040 Speaker 1: pretty substantial number. And since it is such a big trailer, 859 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 1: and since this is such a big important piece in 860 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 1: what DC is doing with James Gunn taking over as 861 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,719 Speaker 1: trying to be there, Kevin Feige trying to direct them, 862 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:33,319 Speaker 1: trying to create some cohesiveness among the DC films, and 863 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:35,399 Speaker 1: this is going to be there. Hey, here we go. 864 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:40,719 Speaker 1: This is our big title character, arguably the most famous superhero, 865 00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:45,320 Speaker 1: the original og superhero. Every kid wanted to be Superman. 866 00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:49,319 Speaker 1: Everybody knows whose Superman is. I would say DC has 867 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:55,080 Speaker 1: the more iconic characters Batman, Superman. Those are so huge 868 00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:59,480 Speaker 1: that I still think that those reaches are stronger and 869 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,320 Speaker 1: more w then the Marvel character. I mean, they're probably 870 00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:06,080 Speaker 1: comparable at this point, especially with Spider Man, but I 871 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:10,080 Speaker 1: still feel like going back to the original movie how 872 00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:14,600 Speaker 1: that was like the first big superhero movie. I feel 873 00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:18,520 Speaker 1: that this needs to be good for everything else to work. 874 00:40:19,080 --> 00:40:22,640 Speaker 1: And from what I've learned studying what Marvel did, it 875 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:26,839 Speaker 1: is really important that your first film where you're trying 876 00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:30,719 Speaker 1: to set the stage lands. If Ironman didn't land back 877 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:33,319 Speaker 1: in two thousand and eight, the MCU would have never 878 00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:37,279 Speaker 1: been creative created sorry, And I think that is what 879 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:39,360 Speaker 1: they are trying to do now. They are at a 880 00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 1: bit of a disadvantage because the bad taste in everybody's 881 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:45,360 Speaker 1: mouth from all the DC movies is still going to 882 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:49,279 Speaker 1: be there. So you have to get it across to 883 00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:53,279 Speaker 1: the average person that we're doing something new here. I 884 00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:56,440 Speaker 1: know all of our nerves are well invested, we know 885 00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 1: what's going on, we know what to expect, we know 886 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:01,320 Speaker 1: that they're doing something different. But to the average person 887 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:03,719 Speaker 1: who doesn't follow that, and you're just gonna see, Oh, 888 00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:06,480 Speaker 1: this trailer is coming out, there's a new Superman movie 889 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:09,040 Speaker 1: coming out? Oh DC again? Is it gonna be like 890 00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 1: Black Adam? So they have to make a great trailer 891 00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:15,640 Speaker 1: to get people to want to watch this. It's coming 892 00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:18,319 Speaker 1: out next year. I don't even have all my notes 893 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:20,360 Speaker 1: in front of me, right now. I'll get into that after, 894 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:22,359 Speaker 1: but I wanted to go into the super Raw. I'm 895 00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:25,400 Speaker 1: looking at the YouTube description. It comes out on July eleventh. 896 00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:29,640 Speaker 1: They say it begins Superman only in theaters twenty twenty 897 00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 1: five film for Imax, which is exciting to me to 898 00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:34,440 Speaker 1: I'm at a hit play for the first time. It 899 00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:38,240 Speaker 1: is a two minute and twenty second trailer. I normally 900 00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:40,799 Speaker 1: don't play a full trailer, but I'm gonna play it. 901 00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:43,440 Speaker 1: I'm gonna react to it in real time, and then 902 00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:46,280 Speaker 1: we'll talk about it afterwards. Here we go. I'm excited 903 00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:47,960 Speaker 1: for this. Let's go. I've never done it like this before, 904 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:50,720 Speaker 1: so let's see how this goes. I'm gonna hit play 905 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:51,920 Speaker 1: on the Superman trailer. 906 00:41:55,840 --> 00:42:02,320 Speaker 4: Looks good so far smashes into the ice. 907 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:04,239 Speaker 1: Dang is that the dragon. 908 00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:17,560 Speaker 4: Ball z pos It looks good.

He 920 00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:40,640 Speaker 1: doesn't look like a good guy. Villa does look good. 921 00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:57,120 Speaker 1: I love the cosmic color. Haggan his dog dragging him. Oh, 922 00:43:57,200 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 1: the flight scene. The flight scene, it's a good fine 923 00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:11,480 Speaker 1: them music, the little ode to the original only indeed, okay, 924 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:15,759 Speaker 1: a lot to unpack here, immediate reaction. That is a 925 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:21,240 Speaker 1: fantastic trailer. I know. Last week I gave the Trailer 926 00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:25,520 Speaker 1: of the Year to twenty eight years later. This beat it. 927 00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:27,799 Speaker 1: This is the best trailer of the year and the 928 00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:32,080 Speaker 1: only other trailer I can remember appointment watching like this 929 00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 1: was the No Way Home trailer. I was in Costa Rica. 930 00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:38,080 Speaker 1: We went out to dinner, and we were driving back 931 00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 1: from the restaurant to our hotel, and I was trying 932 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:43,799 Speaker 1: to watch it in the back of the van, and 933 00:44:43,840 --> 00:44:45,360 Speaker 1: I didn't have great cell service because we were in 934 00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:48,279 Speaker 1: Costa Rica. But that was the last time I remembered like, 935 00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:51,000 Speaker 1: I need to see this trailer immediately when it drops 936 00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 1: and that was, for the longest time, the most viewed 937 00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:57,200 Speaker 1: trailer of all time until the Deadpool and Wolverine trailer 938 00:44:57,239 --> 00:45:01,280 Speaker 1: came out earlier this year. But this movie look look fantastic. 939 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:05,600 Speaker 1: You have David corn Sweat as Clark Kent and Superman. 940 00:45:05,880 --> 00:45:09,560 Speaker 1: He looks fantastic. I primarily know him from Twisters. While 941 00:45:09,560 --> 00:45:12,120 Speaker 1: he was filming that movie, he actually found out that 942 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:15,280 Speaker 1: he got the Superman part. And I think some people 943 00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,799 Speaker 1: had hesitation because he's really not a big name. But 944 00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:20,600 Speaker 1: I think that's what you have to go with right now. 945 00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:24,280 Speaker 1: And I think you also want to have a younger Superman. 946 00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:26,080 Speaker 1: Just by the look of this story looked by the 947 00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:29,560 Speaker 1: feel of it, I think he works. And I think 948 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:32,560 Speaker 1: this version of Superman it's about twenty five years old, 949 00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:35,960 Speaker 1: so definitely. I think that's why I had that feeling 950 00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:38,560 Speaker 1: that it feels a little bit Smallville to me, and 951 00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:41,440 Speaker 1: I think you have a lot of inspiration to draw from. 952 00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:46,799 Speaker 1: You obviously have the og Christopher Reeves originals. You have 953 00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:50,680 Speaker 1: the Zach Snyder verse version of Superman, which I enjoy. 954 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:52,279 Speaker 1: I feel like that gets a little bit more hate 955 00:45:52,280 --> 00:45:55,600 Speaker 1: than it deserves. The first Man of Steel movie was good. 956 00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:59,000 Speaker 1: I enjoy that one. I think it was just Superman 957 00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:01,840 Speaker 1: and all the rest of the movies in Justice League 958 00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 1: and Batman Versus Superman, where it just wasn't really put 959 00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:09,520 Speaker 1: to the justice of the character. You have Rachel Brossahan 960 00:46:09,640 --> 00:46:13,600 Speaker 1: as Lois Lane. She looks fantastic. She's being described as 961 00:46:13,680 --> 00:46:17,799 Speaker 1: fiercely intelligent and feisty in this movie. Nicholas Whole as 962 00:46:17,880 --> 00:46:21,560 Speaker 1: Lex Luthor. I think, out of everything in this trailer, 963 00:46:21,680 --> 00:46:25,279 Speaker 1: it was the least convincing, and it's mainly it's hard 964 00:46:25,320 --> 00:46:27,960 Speaker 1: to put somebody in a ball cap and have it 965 00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:32,280 Speaker 1: look believable. But he is gonna play Lex Luthor, who 966 00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:35,399 Speaker 1: in this version is a businessman and obviously the arch 967 00:46:35,440 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 1: nemesis of Superman. What I took away from this trailer 968 00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:42,840 Speaker 1: is people are gonna have a problem with Superman. There's 969 00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:46,480 Speaker 1: one scene that I saw where somebody throws something at 970 00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:50,880 Speaker 1: Superman's head, So maybe there's gonna be kind of a 971 00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 1: Batman situation where some people like him, some people don't. 972 00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:56,919 Speaker 1: He has to convince people that he is a good guy, 973 00:46:56,960 --> 00:46:59,960 Speaker 1: that he is a hero. Going back to that open 974 00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:03,800 Speaker 1: scene in this trailer of seeing him being broken down 975 00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:07,040 Speaker 1: and bloody and barely able to breathe, and his dog 976 00:47:07,080 --> 00:47:10,000 Speaker 1: Crypto has to come to his rescue. You have to 977 00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:14,319 Speaker 1: feel like something serious is gonna go down. It looks 978 00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:16,560 Speaker 1: like there's a good amount of villains in this story. 979 00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:23,400 Speaker 1: I saw this big monster ripping through Metropolis, so I 980 00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:26,000 Speaker 1: feel like there's gonna be some real threats here. You 981 00:47:26,040 --> 00:47:28,920 Speaker 1: have some of James Gunn's calling cards in there. You 982 00:47:29,000 --> 00:47:31,560 Speaker 1: see some people that he always works with. Those actors 983 00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:33,719 Speaker 1: are in there. You already know who to expect. But 984 00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:37,399 Speaker 1: I think what I really felt that he pulled from 985 00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:40,040 Speaker 1: some of his other movies was the Last Guardians of 986 00:47:40,080 --> 00:47:44,160 Speaker 1: the Galaxy movie, which I loved the way he used 987 00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:46,279 Speaker 1: color in that movie, and I think obviously he drew 988 00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:49,240 Speaker 1: a lot of inspiration for that movie from two thousand 989 00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:51,040 Speaker 1: and one A Space Odyssey. But I kind of got 990 00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:54,560 Speaker 1: those vibes here in this Superman trailer where there are 991 00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:57,640 Speaker 1: a lot of cosmic colors. That moment that we all 992 00:47:57,719 --> 00:48:01,759 Speaker 1: saw that first picture of Superman in the suit with 993 00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:04,439 Speaker 1: him in his apartment and you saw like that kind 994 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:07,879 Speaker 1: of almost planet like backdrop. I actually saw that come 995 00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:10,120 Speaker 1: to life in this trailer, and it looked really good, 996 00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:12,759 Speaker 1: and at the moment of recording this and what I 997 00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:14,640 Speaker 1: know of coming out in twenty twenty five, which there 998 00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:16,719 Speaker 1: are a lot of great movies coming out, I think 999 00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:19,879 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five is gonna be the stronger year of 1000 00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:23,720 Speaker 1: twenty four and twenty five. I think this could quite 1001 00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:27,279 Speaker 1: possibly be the best movie of next year, and that's 1002 00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:30,920 Speaker 1: exciting for me as a comic book fan and as 1003 00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:34,040 Speaker 1: a comic book movie fan in an era where people 1004 00:48:34,080 --> 00:48:36,560 Speaker 1: are starting to get burnt out on the genre, and 1005 00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:38,960 Speaker 1: I think it's time for Superman to rise up. Because 1006 00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:42,560 Speaker 1: he's not even my favorite character. I wouldn't even put 1007 00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:45,799 Speaker 1: him in my top five superhero characters. I am more 1008 00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:49,520 Speaker 1: of a Marvel stand. The only DC character I would 1009 00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:51,719 Speaker 1: put in my top five is Batman. He's top three. 1010 00:48:52,600 --> 00:48:55,120 Speaker 1: But I think it was because in the era I 1011 00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:59,480 Speaker 1: grew up in, I didn't really have my Superman, and 1012 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:01,160 Speaker 1: a lot of people people I see reacting to this, 1013 00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:03,759 Speaker 1: some of my friends are people who grew up in 1014 00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:07,040 Speaker 1: the eighties and they had that first iteration of Superman 1015 00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:09,480 Speaker 1: and they're a little bit more attached to that. I 1016 00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:12,520 Speaker 1: think that's the same way I have such an attachment 1017 00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:14,719 Speaker 1: to Spider Man because I grew up with the animated 1018 00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:16,600 Speaker 1: show from the nineties, and then in the early two 1019 00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:19,600 Speaker 1: thousands we had the Toby Maguire versions, and I've had 1020 00:49:19,640 --> 00:49:23,520 Speaker 1: an iteration every decade since that. I have a much 1021 00:49:23,560 --> 00:49:26,960 Speaker 1: closer relationship with that character. And to me, Superman has 1022 00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:28,840 Speaker 1: always felt like a little bit of a boy scout. 1023 00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:31,759 Speaker 1: To me, he never really had real problems. That was 1024 00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:35,040 Speaker 1: a lot of early DC comic book characters that they 1025 00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:38,200 Speaker 1: were just well, they were superheroes and they were not 1026 00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:42,720 Speaker 1: of this planet, and the average person probably couldn't relate 1027 00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:45,360 Speaker 1: to these characters. And that is what set Marvel apart, 1028 00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:49,359 Speaker 1: because you had characters like the Fantastic Four who are 1029 00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:52,160 Speaker 1: a family, but they're very dysfunctional. They fought with each other, 1030 00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:55,680 Speaker 1: they had issues with money, same thing with Spider Man. 1031 00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:59,360 Speaker 1: They had issues with girls and issues with their kids, 1032 00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:04,359 Speaker 1: like all these things that made these characters feel three dimensional, 1033 00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:09,040 Speaker 1: and it was they just happen to have superpowers. When 1034 00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:11,600 Speaker 1: it comes to DC characters, it is so focused on 1035 00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:15,440 Speaker 1: their superpowers and they just happen to be human or whatever. 1036 00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:19,000 Speaker 1: So I think this is gonna be a very important 1037 00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:22,759 Speaker 1: piece in DC's future, and they have a lot of 1038 00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:26,799 Speaker 1: movies coming out in twenty twenty five, this will be 1039 00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:29,919 Speaker 1: their one. Twenty twenty six, they have a Supergirl movie 1040 00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:33,239 Speaker 1: coming out called Woman of Tomorrow. They announced Clayface coming 1041 00:50:33,239 --> 00:50:36,520 Speaker 1: out also in twenty twenty six. They also announced Batman, 1042 00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:38,480 Speaker 1: The Brave and the Bold, which I don't know how 1043 00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:45,320 Speaker 1: they're gonna start differentiating between the Batman. We know the Penguin. 1044 00:50:45,360 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 1: We know they've been talking about it's gonna be dc 1045 00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:50,239 Speaker 1: Els Worlds, but I feel like at some point that's 1046 00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:53,279 Speaker 1: gonna be hard not to merge the two. They also 1047 00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:56,200 Speaker 1: have The Authority coming out to be announced, and there's 1048 00:50:56,239 --> 00:51:00,480 Speaker 1: a swamp Thing movie also allegedly coming out, so there 1049 00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:06,520 Speaker 1: is some potential here. And allegedly this movie costs anywhere 1050 00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:08,800 Speaker 1: between two hundred and fifty to three hundred million dollars 1051 00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:11,920 Speaker 1: to make. James Gunn hasn't fully confirmed that, but this 1052 00:51:12,000 --> 00:51:15,759 Speaker 1: is part of chapter one called Monsters and Gods. I'm 1053 00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:18,160 Speaker 1: in it for this one. It's coming out on July eleventh, 1054 00:51:18,239 --> 00:51:19,200 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. 1055 00:51:20,120 --> 00:51:24,319 Speaker 2: And that was this week's edition of Movie Mine Trailer Park. 1056 00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:27,920 Speaker 1: There we go our first ever raw trailer park. Let 1057 00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:29,800 Speaker 1: me know if you enjoy when I do it that way. 1058 00:51:29,960 --> 00:51:32,240 Speaker 1: I think it only works with really big movie trailers. 1059 00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:34,640 Speaker 1: And that was all from the dome. I had some 1060 00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:37,560 Speaker 1: notes here that I made beforehand, but I just wanted 1061 00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:40,400 Speaker 1: to give you my raw reaction, So maybe I'll do 1062 00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:42,760 Speaker 1: that more in the future for more big trailers dropping 1063 00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:45,120 Speaker 1: That is going to do it for another week here 1064 00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:47,600 Speaker 1: on the podcast. But before I go, I got to 1065 00:51:47,600 --> 00:51:50,040 Speaker 1: give my listeners shout out of the week. How do 1066 00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:51,920 Speaker 1: you get a listener shout out of the week?
