And now 13 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:39,000 Speaker 1: let's talk movies from the nast Trolle podcast network. And 14 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:43,800 Speaker 1: this is movie Mike's Movie Podcasts. So I mentioned I 15 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,960 Speaker 1: wanted to do this episode a little bit different this year. 16 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,240 Speaker 1: I've been doing this every year since I've been doing 17 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 1: this podcast going on. This will be the sixth year, 18 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 1: and usually I pick my movies based upon how good 19 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:59,400 Speaker 1: I think the movie is going to be. I'm gonna 20 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 1: do it different this time. I was thinking about movies 21 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 1: last year that I went to go see that I 22 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: just enjoyed the idea of going to watch this movie. 23 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 1: I was just excited to see these movies in theaters, 24 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,560 Speaker 1: whether or not I had this podcast. It was just 25 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 1: fun for me. It took me back to my days 26 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: of weird to say, before I turned this into a job, 27 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,679 Speaker 1: turned this into any kind of legit outlet that I 28 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 1: do an episode every single week. Before all that, where 29 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: I would just be excited to go to a movie 30 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: for the sake of seeing a movie. Still love movies 31 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 1: with all my heart, but sometimes the process feels a 32 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: little bit differently because in my head I'm thinking of 33 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 1: how to review this movie, what to all those things. 34 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,479 Speaker 1: But still, even at this stage of my life, there 35 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: are still movies that I'm just genuinely excited to go see. 36 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: When I go see in theaters, I'm not going to 37 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 1: see them for screening. There's just no reason that I 38 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 1: need to go see that movie. I just want to 39 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 1: see that movie that still happens. So when that does 40 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: happen to make me back, I feel good about it. 41 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: I make less notes on those movies because I can 42 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: really go off of motion and what I already know 43 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: about that film. So that is what I decided to 44 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 1: do when making this list, I thought, what movies of 45 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 1: all the movies coming out in twenty twenty five, am 46 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: I just going to be genuinely excited as I walk 47 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 1: down that long hallway. When you go to the movies, 48 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:26,519 Speaker 1: you can go into all these different worlds just by 49 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: opening up a door. That is what I love about movies. 50 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 1: That feeling for me, not even the Some of it 51 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,800 Speaker 1: is the anticipate anticipation of going to the movie. But 52 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 1: then I think that best feeling is right when that 53 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:42,800 Speaker 1: movie's done, Not because I get to go home, but 54 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 1: right when that movie is done, I walk back out 55 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 1: into that hallway and I just have that feeling that 56 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,399 Speaker 1: I'm still in the movie. I'm still in that world. 57 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: If it was a really good movie, anything in that 58 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:58,239 Speaker 1: four point five even before, give me that feeling that 59 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: you walk out and you still feel like a part 60 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 1: of it. If it was a thriller, you kind of 61 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,480 Speaker 1: still are looking over back over your shoulder they you know, 62 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: oh no, the bad guy's going to come get me. 63 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,959 Speaker 1: If it's a horror movie, you genuinely feel creeped out. 64 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,640 Speaker 1: Superhero movie, I feel like I'm ready to take on 65 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: the world, and I think in that moment superheroes still exist. 66 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 1: I'm talking about movies that give me that feeling when 67 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: I leave the theater, I ride that excitement on the 68 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: entire drive home. So that is what I did when 69 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 1: coming up with this list, the ten films that I 70 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: am anticipating the most and will genuinely be the most 71 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 1: excited to see that. I still will use my own 72 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: money to watch these movies, which I do no matter 73 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,839 Speaker 1: what I had that regal unlimited. So let's get into 74 00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: the list now. At number ten, I have Mickey seventeen, 75 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 1: directed by Bung June Hoe, starring the one and only 76 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: Robert Pattinson. The reason I had this movie lower on 77 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 1: my list is because it was on my list last year. 78 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: This movie's been delayed quite a bit. Part of it 79 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: was the writer strike, and then part of it was 80 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: them shifting around lease dates and schedules and things not 81 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: lining up. So for that reason, it has dropped in 82 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: my list. But I love Bung Ju Hoo. He is 83 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 1: a fantastic director. You would probably know him best for 84 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: his movie Parasite, which was the last movie he put 85 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: out back in twenty nineteen, won the Oscar for Best Picture, 86 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 1: won the Oscar for Best Director. That is my favorite 87 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: movie of his. I also love snow Piercer and Oakja, 88 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 1: but when it comes to Mickey seventeen. It is a 89 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,919 Speaker 1: sci fi movie based on a book. Robert Panson plays 90 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 1: this expendable guy who signed up for this experiment where 91 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 1: he just keeps dying over and over. They're trying to 92 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 1: colonize this world, and after each iteration of him dies, 93 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 1: they essentially throw him into like this incinerator. Then he regenerates. 94 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: He still has most of his memories. In tact, he 95 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: talks about how much it hurts to die, until one 96 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: day they are set to kill him like a do 97 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 1: just as part of the routine, and he doesn't die. 98 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,719 Speaker 1: He wakes up next to the next one. So then 99 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,159 Speaker 1: they have to decide what do you do with this 100 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: duplicate now that two of them exists when the other 101 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: one was supposed to die. So something goes wrong in 102 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: that human printing process and then all crap breaks loose. 103 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 1: It has a little bit more of the wackier tone 104 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,760 Speaker 1: that Mon June Ho is known for. I tend to 105 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 1: like more of his straight ahead drama or even his 106 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: horror stuff. He has such a creative vision when it 107 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: comes to anything sci fi. That is why I put 108 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 1: Mickey seventeen at number ten. It comes out on March seventh. 109 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: At number nine, I have Avatar, Fire and Ash. It 110 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: is coming out on December nineteenth. It is directed by 111 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 1: James Cameron. It stars Sam Worthington. It's always held Donna, 112 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 1: It's a gourney weaver pretty much everybody who's been a 113 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: part of all of these Avatar movies and whenever the 114 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 1: last one came out Way in the Water, and it 115 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 1: was three plus hours long, and that was the first 116 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,160 Speaker 1: one since two thousand and nine. At the time when 117 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: Avatar came out, I didn't really get it. It really 118 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: wasn't until Way the Water came out that I went 119 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: back rewatched that movie maybe for the third time. At 120 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 1: that point that I really started to understand it. I 121 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 1: started to leaning more into the work of James Cameron, 122 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: and by no means was I diving into the deep cuns. 123 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: But I watched first Avatar, rewatch Titanic, and I started 124 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: to realize how hard it is to make a movie 125 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 1: on the scale of a James Cameron film. For some 126 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: to say that I don't really care about all these 127 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 1: Avatar movies. They have so many lined up for the 128 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 1: next I think ten years these will continue to come out. 129 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: And for me, if you had have told me five 130 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: years ago that I would be anticipating a new Avatar movie, 131 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 1: I would have said you were crazy. But now, after 132 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: watching Way of the Water in theaters with as long 133 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 1: as a runtime as it had, I love that movie. 134 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 1: James Cameron knows action, he knows how to develop a story, 135 00:06:56,040 --> 00:06:58,720 Speaker 1: he knows how to create a world. Yes, they might 136 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 1: be a little bit long, but James Cameron is a 137 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 1: director who I believe warrants those long run times because 138 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,280 Speaker 1: he knows how to utilize it. What I love about 139 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 1: the Avatar movies is how huge these fight scenes are. 140 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: They are massive, There's so many things going on. So 141 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: this one's gonna make it on my list this year 142 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: because I usually have a little bit of hesitation when 143 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: going to watch any movie that's over three hours, But 144 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 1: now to go into an Avatar movie, I'm all invested 145 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:34,320 Speaker 1: in it. I won't second guess it. And after leaving 146 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: a movie like this, it makes me feel excited. They 147 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 1: haven't really said a whole lot about what this movie 148 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 1: is going to be about. First Avatar movie we were 149 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 1: introduced to the world of Pandora, all about those people 150 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 1: and the humans fighting with each other. Way of the 151 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: Water was then leaving that place, going to find these 152 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 1: new people and assimilating into their culture, and then again 153 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,000 Speaker 1: fighting the humans. So this one is probably going to 154 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 1: lead more into the Fire. You had a Way of 155 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: the Water, which was all based in water, has some 156 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 1: really fantastic visuals with all those underwater creatures and underwater 157 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: battle scenes. This one, the theme is no longer blue. 158 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: The theme is red. So maybe they just do a 159 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 1: different element in each of these installments. But again, this 160 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: movie is coming out on December nineteenth, Avatar Fire and Ash. 161 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 1: I put this one at number nine, at number eight, 162 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 1: another movie that I'd kind of written off this franchise, 163 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: but with the Last Mission Impossible movie, I'm heavily invested. 164 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: At number eight, I had Mission Impossible, the Final Reckoning. 165 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 1: It is coming out this summer May twenty third. When 166 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 1: I think summer now, I think Tom Cruise And this 167 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 1: one is picking up right where the Last Mission Impossible, 168 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: Dead Reckoning left off. They were trying to fight these 169 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: villains who had this artificial intelligence program called the Entity. 170 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 1: There's this key they're trying to assemble that it comes 171 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:03,560 Speaker 1: into different parts, and this one is said to kind 172 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: of feel like they haven't fully said it's going to 173 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 1: be the end of the franchise, but at least that 174 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: is what they are selling it as right now. And 175 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: that trailer, Tom Cruise says all like, I need you 176 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:16,320 Speaker 1: guys to trust me one last time. I love the 177 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 1: shot of him the bottom of the ocean, and like 178 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: his tighty whities was probably like boxer briefs or some 179 00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: kind of swimming shorts, but it's him floating that is 180 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: fantastic visual. You see him running a lot, which is 181 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: trademark Tom Cruise. Will it be the sendoff to his 182 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 1: character or is he gonna pull Harrison Ford still be 183 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,559 Speaker 1: in his seventies and still cashing in on the Mission 184 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: Impossible movies. I don't think so. These movies are pretty 185 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:45,160 Speaker 1: physically demanding. He's broken his ankles before jumping from building 186 00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: the building. He has to take out big insurance policies 187 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 1: to drive motorcycles off of cliffs. I don't think he's 188 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: gonna be able to keep up with that scale. Much 189 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,959 Speaker 1: like my favorite film franchise, Jackass, those guys have just 190 00:09:58,040 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: kind of aged out of being able to put their 191 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: body through some of those things. They get new guys 192 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 1: to come in and do the more physical stunts. So 193 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: I feel that that rumor that was swirling around at 194 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 1: Glenn Powell will step into the role and keep this 195 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: franchise going. But at number eight, I have Mission Impossible, 196 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 1: the Final Reckoning. At number seven, I have Jurassic Park Rebirth. 197 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 1: It's coming out on July second, twenty twenty five. Stars 198 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 1: Scarlett Johansson. It's about her and a family getting stranded 199 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 1: on the island that's home to these dinosaurs. So this 200 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 1: is kind of a rebranding of Jurassic Park. You have 201 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: the originals from back in the nineties. You have the 202 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 1: reboot with Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard. Those characters 203 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: are gone. Last movie Jurassic Park Dominion, that was the 204 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 1: end of them. You had Jurassic World in twenty fifteen, 205 00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: which I really enjoyed. These are movies that I loved 206 00:10:54,880 --> 00:10:57,719 Speaker 1: going to experience in the theater. That's why it makes 207 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 1: it onto this list. I felt that over the course 208 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 1: of those movies it became less about the dinosaurs so 209 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,319 Speaker 1: much so that the last one wasn't even really about 210 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 1: the dinosaurs. It was about the dang bugs. How are 211 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:12,080 Speaker 1: you gonna make a Jurassic Park World movie about not 212 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 1: dinosaur being the main focal point? So I think this 213 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 1: is gonna kind of take it back to I hate 214 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 1: it when people say we're taking it back to our 215 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 1: roots because that kind of means you've run out of 216 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 1: ideas and you want to go back to do what 217 00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 1: was working and what was making you the most amount 218 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 1: of money. But I think bringing in Scarlett Johansson and 219 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: changing it so it's not about the park anymore. They 220 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 1: just get stranded on this island, and so far, what's 221 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: out about the plot is that's kind of It doesn't 222 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: really say that there was somebody there putting all the 223 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: dinosaurs there. There weren't people going to visit it like 224 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 1: they did in the first movie, So it feels like 225 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a little bit different. It brings up 226 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: a big question for me of why are there no 227 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 1: other really prominent dinosaur franchises. Why does Jurassic Park have 228 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: the only rights to making dinosaur movies? And you may 229 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 1: say Godzilla Land before time, Pixar and Disney had made 230 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,440 Speaker 1: some dinosaur movies, But when it comes to something so 231 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:15,559 Speaker 1: captivating us dinosaurs that everybody, especially kids love. Why aren't 232 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 1: there other dinosaur movies that work? It's only Jurassic Park. 233 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: That sixty five movie with Adam Driver was one of 234 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: the worst movies of all time. Really wasn't a dinosaur movie. 235 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 1: There was a t Rex in it. But I just wonder, like, 236 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:30,599 Speaker 1: why is nobody else trying to make these movies? Is 237 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 1: it too expensive? Does Steven Spielberg have the rights to 238 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 1: every single dinosaur? Does he have the rights to t Rex? Which, 239 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: by the way, Steven Spielberg is still an executive producer 240 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 1: on this movie. He's not directing him anymore, which I 241 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,080 Speaker 1: think if he came back to direct him and started 242 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 1: using practical effects again, oh, I think that could kind 243 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 1: of work. But there was a rumor swirling around the internet, 244 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,559 Speaker 1: which rumors never swirl around the internet. This is the 245 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 1: first I've ever heard of a rumor coming from the 246 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:02,840 Speaker 1: Internet that's false. But people were saying that this movie 247 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: was said to be rated R. Somebody put out a 248 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: poster and said radedar. It's not raded Ar, which I 249 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,199 Speaker 1: think would be fantastic. But I think as long as 250 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 1: Steven Spielberg and Amblin Entertainment are involved in any way, 251 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: You're never going to get an R rated Jurassic Park movie, 252 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,319 Speaker 1: which I think is at least what I want. I 253 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,120 Speaker 1: don't think it's what kids want, who are probably going 254 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: to be the most excited outside of me to go 255 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 1: see a movie like this. But if you could think 256 00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 1: about the blood that you have seen throughout the franchise, 257 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: still one of those images that stays in my head 258 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 1: from my early childhood of watching movies was from the 259 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 1: Jurassic Park Lost World, which was my favorite Jurassic Park 260 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:41,839 Speaker 1: movie because I saw that one as a kid before 261 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:45,439 Speaker 1: I saw the original. But there's a scene where they're 262 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,679 Speaker 1: running from the t Rex. They get caught and they 263 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 1: have to hide behind this waterfall. They're like on this 264 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 1: little rock sliver and they are jumping through water to 265 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 1: get to like behind this waterfall so the t Rex 266 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,840 Speaker 1: can't catch them. And somebody he gets eaten up by 267 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 1: the t Rex and you see the water changed from 268 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: clear to blood red as the bones crunch, and you 269 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,320 Speaker 1: no longer hear the person screaming and it's just that 270 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 1: blood coming down through the water. That image is stuck 271 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 1: in my head, and that's a PG. Thirteen movie could 272 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,880 Speaker 1: you imagine the crazy violent things that they could do? 273 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 1: Which I think now that I think about it, there 274 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: are some straight to Amazon really low budget dinosaur movies 275 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 1: that probably have that. So maybe there's some type of 276 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: balance that Jurassic Park movies have figured out where people 277 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 1: don't really want that bloody of a dinosaur movie. In 278 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: the title Jurassic World Rebirth, Hopefully this also serves as 279 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 1: a rebirth of the entire franchise that are able to 280 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 1: make these movies exciting again, which is what is great 281 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: about the Jurassic Park movies is they are exciting, they 282 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: are captivating. But how do you recreate that feeling that 283 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: you built in the nineties where we're still limited technology. 284 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 1: It was so entry level cgi with those shots. How 285 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 1: do you recapture that now where we're so used to 286 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 1: seeing everything and being able to create anything with digital images. 287 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 1: As long as they don't make it anything like Jurassic 288 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 1: World Dominion, I think we're good. That's why I have 289 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 1: Jurassic World Rebirth coming out on July second at number seven. 290 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 1: At number six, I have twenty eight years Later coming 291 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: out on June twentieth. It's about a group of survivors 292 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 1: of the rage virus living on this small island. One 293 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 1: of the people from the group believes the island to 294 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 1: go on a mission into this mainland, and while he's there, 295 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: he discovers some secrets, some wonders, some horrors that have 296 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: mutated not only the infected but other survivors as well. 297 00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 1: When this trailer came out at the end of last year, 298 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 1: I thought, this is the movie I've been waiting for 299 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: for so long. This falls under the category of a 300 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: legacy sequel and a soft reboot, because I think if 301 00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 1: this movie is six successful, which I have seen the 302 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: excitement and demand their online people were so hype about 303 00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 1: this movie. They also faced some issues that I was 304 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 1: talking about back when this trailer came out, of people 305 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 1: just not being able to access that for the longest time, 306 00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: it wasn't on a streaming service and wasn't even available 307 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 1: for you to rent. And right after I talked about 308 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 1: it in the trailer park, they announced that, Hey, we're 309 00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 1: finally gonna make it available for you to watch it 310 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 1: home so you could read it. They're banking on the 311 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 1: fact that people going to pay and rewatch this movie. 312 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 1: The original line talking about leading up to twenty eight 313 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 1: years later. But at number six, I can't wait for 314 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 1: this one, twenty eight years later coming out on June twentieth, 315 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 1: into the top five. Now you think this one would 316 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 1: be higher, but there are some hesitations I have going 317 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 1: into it. But at number five, I have Lilo and 318 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: Stitch coming out on May twenty third. It is the 319 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 1: live action Lelo and Stitch. If you are a longtime 320 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:59,560 Speaker 1: listener of the podcast, you already know. If you're new here, 321 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: Leelo and Stitch is my favorite Disney movie of all time. 322 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 1: I don't think it's the best, but if I had 323 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:10,119 Speaker 1: to pick one Disney movie to save and not go 324 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,159 Speaker 1: into the Disney vault forever, it would be Leelow and Stitch. 325 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,959 Speaker 1: The story just resonates with me. I think Stitch is 326 00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:20,640 Speaker 1: the best Disney character since it came out hasn't been matched. 327 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 1: The reason it's not higher is because I haven't fully 328 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 1: been a fan of all of these Disney reboot live 329 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,439 Speaker 1: action movies, and there have been a lot of them. 330 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:35,160 Speaker 1: We hadn't moved Fossil last year. Some of the worst 331 00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 1: movies I've ever seen have been these Disney live action movies. 332 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:42,880 Speaker 1: Pinocchio with Tom Hanks was awful, And the only thing 333 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:46,879 Speaker 1: that made those movies like it even watchable was the 334 00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:49,159 Speaker 1: fact that I was familiar with the story and they 335 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: were classics, and I just wanted to watch it all 336 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 1: the way through to see what they did. But they're 337 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 1: very lifeless, they're very cold, and they feel very much 338 00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:01,960 Speaker 1: like cash grabs. Like definition of cash grab. If you 339 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 1: look at cash Grab in the movie dictionary, you'll see 340 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,640 Speaker 1: Tom Hanks's face right there next to him as Jeppetto 341 00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 1: and Pinocchio. That is just the definition of it, because 342 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 1: most of them aren't providing anything new, is just doing 343 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 1: it quote unquote live action, which sometimes they're not even 344 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 1: live action. M Foss is not a live action movie. 345 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 1: It's an animated movie, just different animation that makes it 346 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:27,880 Speaker 1: look somewhat real. But I love Leelo and Stitch. I've 347 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: had Chris Sanders on this podcast, the creator of Lelo 348 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,880 Speaker 1: and Stitch. He's also the voice of Stitch and returning 349 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 1: in this movie. They haven't said if it's a direct 350 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,639 Speaker 1: remake of the first one. They're following the story exactly, 351 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 1: but it's about Stitch meeting Lelo, who is an orphan 352 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:48,400 Speaker 1: child living with their sister so that full plot isn't out, 353 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:51,720 Speaker 1: but I have to imagine it'll be something similar. Chris 354 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 1: Sanders is returning as the voice of Stitch, who has 355 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 1: had an amazing twenty twenty four with the Wild Robot 356 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 1: being so successful. Well that is turning into its own franchise. 357 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 1: So after watching the teaser trailer and by seeing the 358 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 1: poster and some other still images, it looks a lot 359 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 1: better than I was expecting. So it comes down to 360 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 1: how all these characters look, and just looking at some 361 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,959 Speaker 1: of the things Disney has done recently with their CGI. 362 00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 1: I'm talking about the snow White trailer where the seven 363 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,840 Speaker 1: doors look pretty terrifying. It's not a showing to say 364 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,359 Speaker 1: that they're gonna get it right. So that is my 365 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 1: hesitation going into this movie. But me being such a 366 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 1: big fan of Lee Low and Stitch still keeps me in. 367 00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:36,679 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go enjoy this movie for what it is 368 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 1: and not be overly critical because it is my favorite 369 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 1: character in the Disney world. So that is why I 370 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 1: have it at number five, because I wasn't fully into 371 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 1: them thinking that they needed to remake this movie, but 372 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 1: now that I see more details about it, I'm easing 373 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:55,880 Speaker 1: myself more into enjoying it without worrying about it ruining 374 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 1: the reputation of the first one. So at number five, 375 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 1: even though it sound a little bit head, I'm not. 376 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:03,640 Speaker 1: I'm excited about it. I have Leelo and Stitch coming 377 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:07,120 Speaker 1: out on May twenty third at number four. Getting into 378 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 1: some really good stuff here. Top five is great. The 379 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 1: Fantastic Four First Steps coming out on July twenty fifth, Pedro, Pascal, 380 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 1: Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, Evan Moss Backack. That is your 381 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:25,880 Speaker 1: Fantastic Four. This will launch Marvel into Phase six, which 382 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: a lot of people have been saying the Multiverse saga 383 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,159 Speaker 1: has been pretty trash. I'm not really in that camp. 384 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:34,920 Speaker 1: I've still enjoyed a lot of the movies in the 385 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 1: Multiverse saga. I'm all about the Multiverse. I think we 386 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,199 Speaker 1: had a lot of fun moments in it. I just 387 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 1: think it kind of ran its course and we need 388 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: to move on. But Fantastic four in history hasn't been 389 00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 1: the best as far as just being good movie. There 390 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: are some iterations of it that people love based on nostalgia. 391 00:20:53,600 --> 00:20:56,159 Speaker 1: I was just never fully into the Fantastic Four and 392 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 1: didn't really understand the hype around them. Now, as I 393 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:03,359 Speaker 1: learn more about comic books and how impactful they were 394 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: to Marvel's success the first real superhero team, I understand 395 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,360 Speaker 1: more of why people want these movies to be successful. 396 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,440 Speaker 1: But this will be the third reboot of the Fantastic Four. 397 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,439 Speaker 1: If this one doesn't work, they might be done. But 398 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:20,359 Speaker 1: this movie will be set in the nineteen sixties in 399 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 1: an alternative Earth. It's gonna be retro futuristic, follows the 400 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 1: Fantastic Four on a mission to protect Earth from Galactys 401 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,520 Speaker 1: and the Silver Surfer. And then you gotta remember, we 402 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: have Robert Downey Junior on deck to play Doctor Doom, 403 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 1: the Fantastic Four's biggest villain. So will this movie tease 404 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 1: them at all? Will it be in that post credit 405 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 1: scene queuing up what's gonna happen in Secret Wars? These 406 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 1: new Avengers movies that are coming out that Robert Downey 407 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 1: Junior will be a part of. So he's gonna be 408 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,919 Speaker 1: tied into this world. That is why the success of 409 00:21:55,960 --> 00:22:00,439 Speaker 1: this movie, Well, it's gonna be so impactful on Marvel 410 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,679 Speaker 1: in their years to come. And if this movie flops, 411 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 1: it could start to tank Phase six. Hey, third time 412 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 1: to charm right. That is why I have Fantastic Four 413 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,199 Speaker 1: at number four. Actually did that on purpose because I 414 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,879 Speaker 1: wanted the Force to match up at number three coming 415 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 1: out on November twenty First, I have Wicked for Good. 416 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:25,480 Speaker 1: This one is gonna take place directly after Wicked Part one, 417 00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 1: So in part one we already had our big songs, 418 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 1: we had popular, we had defined gravity. This one is 419 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,639 Speaker 1: definitely going to rink up in the level of action, 420 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 1: but it will also have songs like as Long as 421 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,280 Speaker 1: Your Mind, which I'll admit I'm not familiar with it. 422 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: I hadn't seen or known anything about Wicked going into it, 423 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:47,679 Speaker 1: but I think as a whole, whether you had not 424 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 1: seen Wicked or had seen Wicked, I think everybody loved 425 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 1: this movie. For Good is I believe, also a song 426 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 1: in Wicked, and that is why they decided to add 427 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:01,400 Speaker 1: it to the title. Instead of calling it Wicked Part two, 428 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:04,160 Speaker 1: it's called Wicked for Good. I can't wait to see 429 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:07,679 Speaker 1: the transformation of alphabave because we all knew it was coming. 430 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,159 Speaker 1: The way Part one starts is with her death and 431 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 1: Glinda the Goodwitch telling us the story. We find out 432 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 1: she was friends with her, and then it goes all 433 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 1: the way back to the beginning. I like movies where 434 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:22,399 Speaker 1: you know somebody is going to die at the very beginning, 435 00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:25,159 Speaker 1: where it opens up and that person is dead, and 436 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 1: then it's all the things leading up to that death. 437 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,400 Speaker 1: In my heart, I'm still thinking, she's not gonna die. 438 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:32,680 Speaker 1: They're gonna change that. She's gonna be fine. How could 439 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 1: she die? I also love the fact that it comes 440 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 1: out the next year. We don't have to wait two 441 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 1: years because they did film these movies at the same time, 442 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: so it's not like this movie is gonna suddenly look 443 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 1: better and everybody's gonna look different. It's gonna be more polished, 444 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 1: it's gonna feel the same way, which I think is 445 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 1: fine as long as it still comes out as scheduled 446 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: on November twenty first, which would just be a year 447 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:56,919 Speaker 1: after the first one. I love that idea. Now. I 448 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 1: don't always love when movies get split into two, where 449 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 1: it's like this part one and this part two, the 450 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:04,880 Speaker 1: Mission Impossible movies we were talking about earlier, where they've 451 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,480 Speaker 1: split some of those ending movies into two. But I 452 00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 1: think this case is a little bit different because they 453 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 1: could have just as easily made this movie and waited 454 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,680 Speaker 1: on the success of it to decide whether or not 455 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,119 Speaker 1: they were going to make a part two, But now 456 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 1: you know they're already both in the can. I didn't 457 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 1: think this one would make my most anticipated movies of 458 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,359 Speaker 1: the year, But when I think about that feeling I 459 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:28,640 Speaker 1: was describing at the beginning of this episode, I want 460 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:31,919 Speaker 1: that again. I felt that in Wicked. I was completely 461 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: tuned in the entire time while watching that movie. I 462 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: want that feeling again. At number three, I have Wicked 463 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:41,640 Speaker 1: for Good coming out on November twenty first. At number two, 464 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 1: even more so than the Fantastic four movie. Is the 465 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 1: other Marvel movie coming out this year that I'm excited for. 466 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 1: Captain America Brave New World, coming out on Valentine's Day, 467 00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:55,119 Speaker 1: February fourteenth. This one's right around the corner. We have 468 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,400 Speaker 1: our new Captain America Anthony Mackie, which if you missed 469 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 1: the Disney Plus show, I feel they kind of wasted 470 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 1: it there. You learn so much about his character in 471 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:05,879 Speaker 1: that show, but I feel like not a whole lot 472 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:10,400 Speaker 1: of people watch that show, so hopefully they don't base 473 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 1: a whole lot of this plot on that show, which 474 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 1: I think that's something Disney is trying to get away 475 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: from of not making the movies connect with the TV shows. 476 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:22,159 Speaker 1: I think those should be completely separate. And I know 477 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,639 Speaker 1: Kevin Figy has always just kind of drilled that mentality 478 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,880 Speaker 1: of thinking about the bigger picture making things inner lock. 479 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 1: But I think and hope that he learned that we 480 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 1: don't really want the TV shows to connect with the movies. 481 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 1: I think we should kept us separate. I really think 482 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 1: that Disney Plus shows should be entire side quests and 483 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:47,159 Speaker 1: not involved with the main MCU storyline. Do it with 484 00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:50,440 Speaker 1: some side characters, do more animated shows, do more things 485 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 1: like X Men ninety seven. They give us a reason 486 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 1: to go to Disney Plus, but not a reason to 487 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 1: have to go see things in theaters and go back 488 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: to you. So hopefully by making that show, it didn't 489 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 1: take away from the impact of Sam Wilson taking over 490 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: for Steve Rodgers, which is huge, and I really feel 491 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 1: like that reveal on the big screen would have been 492 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: more impactful because now we've already seen it on Disney Plus, 493 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,680 Speaker 1: so there's not gonna be that big off factor because 494 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 1: we kind of have already seen it. We've kind of 495 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 1: wasted that already. I get why they wanted to make 496 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 1: that show. But if you think of how Endgame finished 497 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:32,360 Speaker 1: with those two characters, if that was the last thing 498 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 1: we saw with Chris Evans giving him the Shield and 499 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 1: then moving on to this movie, which I guess would 500 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 1: have been hard to do because that movie came out 501 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 1: like five years ago. At this point, I think over 502 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 1: that now, it would have been a long time to wait. 503 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:50,359 Speaker 1: But still the trailer does give me some chills. Moments 504 00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,000 Speaker 1: where he says, I'm not Steve Rodgers. I feel like 505 00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 1: it's really gonna be Sam coming into his zone, taking 506 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 1: over this role, taking on Harrison Ford, who's gonna go 507 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:05,680 Speaker 1: from being President Thunderbolt Ross into the Red Hulk. Hopefully 508 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:08,199 Speaker 1: we get some good cameos in this, which I hate 509 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:12,439 Speaker 1: the idea of chasing cameos in Marvel movies. It just 510 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 1: feels a little bit twenty tens to me to be like, oh, 511 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 1: I hope somebody shows up. All they showed up, All right, 512 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 1: cool cameo. I would like the cool cameo only because 513 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 1: of who I feel could be involved in this story. 514 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:28,880 Speaker 1: But ultimately that's what I want. I want a good story. 515 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 1: I want to be able to root for his character 516 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,240 Speaker 1: and buy into the fact that he is Captain America, 517 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:38,879 Speaker 1: which I have some doubts about. He doesn't have the serum, 518 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,120 Speaker 1: he has the suit, he has the shield, But what 519 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 1: makes him Captain America? What makes him able to take 520 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: on the Red Hulk, who by all means is stronger 521 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: than Green Hulk. That's who I really wanted this movie. 522 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:55,879 Speaker 1: All want some Green Olk action. Overall. I hate the 523 00:27:55,920 --> 00:28:00,360 Speaker 1: way that Hulk has been portrayed in the later half 524 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:05,440 Speaker 1: of the Infinity saga. Hasn't really been used much in 525 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 1: the Multiverse saga except for Sheet Hulk, But the Hulk 526 00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: is supposed to be just this rage monster, the person 527 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 1: they were so afraid of in the first Avengers movie 528 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 1: that overtime was smart Hulk, which I hate that whole 529 00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:22,480 Speaker 1: trajectory for his character. I want to go back to 530 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 1: that Hulk, the Hulk that people fear that you don't 531 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 1: want to make Bruce better, angry and that can be powerful, 532 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:32,879 Speaker 1: not the Hulk that gets his ass kicked by Thanos 533 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 1: and then as PTSD from that. So can they make 534 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 1: Sam Wilson a viable threat and somebody to root for? 535 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: Visually the movie looks amazing. They've already done the suit reveal, 536 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: but he looks good in it. Again, that could have 537 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 1: been something that was so impactful on the screen. But 538 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 1: the action looks up to par with those early Captain 539 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 1: America movies, which I think out of any movie in 540 00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 1: the MCU, it had the best fight scenes first one 541 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 1: Captain America Civil War. That is what I feel was 542 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 1: the krem de la creme of the MCU, the fight 543 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:08,880 Speaker 1: scenes and the Captain American movies. But can you do 544 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,560 Speaker 1: that without Chris Evans at the helm. But I'm so 545 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:14,320 Speaker 1: excited for this movie. It's coming out soon. I'm not 546 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 1: really that interested of how it's going to play into 547 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 1: the timeline. I don't care what this movie sets up. 548 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 1: I really don't care about what all these things are 549 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 1: building to at this point. I just want individual good movies, 550 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 1: even if the Avengers movies are completely separate from the 551 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 1: plot line. I don't really care at this point. I 552 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 1: just want to have fun and feel excitement when going 553 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,760 Speaker 1: to Marvel movies now. But at number two, I have 554 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 1: Captain America Brave New World coming out soon on February fourteenth. 555 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 1: At number one, I have Superman coming out on July eleventh. 556 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 1: This is the new launch at least on the film side. 557 00:29:57,040 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 1: Of James Gunn taking over for DC, he is going 558 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 1: to be the new person much like Kevin Figy is 559 00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 1: for Marvel, who is the president of Marvel and is 560 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 1: responsible for keeping everything cohesive and for having things connect 561 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 1: and building a big brand. He is the person now 562 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:19,040 Speaker 1: who is going to direct movies like Superman, but also 563 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 1: make sure that every film that they put out is 564 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 1: in line with values, has continuity, feels like the same 565 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 1: from one movie to another, which is something that the 566 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,840 Speaker 1: EMCU did really well. They had a whole system in 567 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 1: place that no matter what director was directing each particular movie, 568 00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 1: they all felt the same way. You have cameos from 569 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:43,959 Speaker 1: one to another, and it's all the same actors, all 570 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 1: the same people. He is going to be that now 571 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 1: for DC. Just the trailer came out, I think I've 572 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 1: thought about this movie every single day, and the movie 573 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 1: just feels so warm and inviting and fresh that every 574 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:04,040 Speaker 1: shot just on its own looks like a page out 575 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 1: of a comic book. It's so perfectly framed, and I 576 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 1: feel like this is really going to dive into what 577 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:17,719 Speaker 1: makes Superman such a great character, the og superhero, the 578 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:22,640 Speaker 1: most famous superhero and really give us that best version 579 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 1: of him since Christopher Reeves back in the day introducing 580 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 1: the character on the big screen. I also love that 581 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 1: James Gunn is so heavily invested in stories from comics 582 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 1: with the Superman character, that is going to bring a 583 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 1: lot of that to life. And overall all the characters 584 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 1: just look really fun and vibrant and cosmic at times 585 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 1: where they need to be. And I just feel like 586 00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 1: this is going to be one of those movies that 587 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 1: once it starts from one second up there when you 588 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 1: see that DC logo, to the very end, it's gonna 589 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:57,120 Speaker 1: feel like a perfect movie. And it's the one I'm 590 00:31:57,160 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 1: just the most excited to be in the theater to 591 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 1: watch because I think it's gonna be one of those 592 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:07,120 Speaker 1: core movie memories for me. And I've had maybe three 593 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:12,360 Speaker 1: of those since twenty nineteen, probably since Endgame, I would 594 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 1: say that have really popped and I just remember that 595 00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:19,360 Speaker 1: moment of watching them for the first time. I think 596 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:22,880 Speaker 1: that is gonna be inside of Superman. And that's why 597 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:24,720 Speaker 1: I put it at number one, because as much as 598 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 1: I can't wait to see the new Captain American movie, 599 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:30,200 Speaker 1: I don't think that or anything below it is gonna 600 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:33,240 Speaker 1: have one of those memories. So I think this is 601 00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 1: the one I'm the most excited to see because I 602 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 1: think it could be one of my next favorite superhero 603 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 1: movies and I feel that, and I think also it 604 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:43,680 Speaker 1: is one that's gonna have to win me over a 605 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 1: little bit because I wouldn't even put Superman in my 606 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 1: top five superheroes of all time. So I think it's 607 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: gonna be having my first iteration that I could fully 608 00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:58,480 Speaker 1: be in love with Superman. Oh as much passion as 609 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 1: it is, there is Superman and going to win my heart? 610 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,240 Speaker 1: Am I good to fall in love for those blue 611 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 1: eyes and slick back hair and red trunks could be? 612 00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 1: So maybe that's why I'm so excited about this is 613 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: I'm ready to hook up a Superman to me in 614 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:12,920 Speaker 1: love with them. But that is the list. There are 615 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,560 Speaker 1: a bunch of honorable mentions. I'll go through these quickly. 616 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 1: I have a category of almost made in my list. 617 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 1: There is an untitled Trey Parker movie coming out. Not 618 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 1: a whole lot of details out as far as what 619 00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:28,600 Speaker 1: it's about, what it's called, but Trey Parker is one 620 00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 1: of the creators of South Park and Kendrick Lamar is 621 00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:34,040 Speaker 1: going to be in it. Elio was also a movie 622 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:36,080 Speaker 1: on my list. It is a Pixar movie coming out 623 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 1: on June thirteenth. That movie has also been delayed for 624 00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:43,440 Speaker 1: a while, so my excitement has also weighed down just 625 00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 1: a little bit. Marvel also has The Thunderbolts coming out 626 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:49,360 Speaker 1: later this year. Brad Pitt is going to be in 627 00:33:49,400 --> 00:33:51,520 Speaker 1: a racing movie called f one. We have a live 628 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:54,640 Speaker 1: action How to Train Your Dragon Zootopia two, which I 629 00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 1: think I might just do an episode on just straight 630 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 1: sequels coming out this year, because we also have Freaking 631 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:04,640 Speaker 1: Your Friday, Happy Gilmour too. Allegedly there is a fourth 632 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 1: Friday movie coming out this year. Not a whole lot 633 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:10,399 Speaker 1: of details on that either, So I know I did 634 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 1: include some sequels in my top ten, but I think 635 00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:15,760 Speaker 1: I want to do an episode where I just think 636 00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 1: and raise the question what will be the best sequel 637 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,279 Speaker 1: this year? Movies that I'm the least interested in would 638 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 1: have to be Snow White and the New Tron movie 639 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 1: because Jared Leto's in it and I think everything he 640 00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 1: touches turns to the crap right now, So that is 641 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:31,399 Speaker 1: the list. Those are my honorable mentions.

So Keithi Palmer's character, this 660 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 1: is a big blow to her. She's going through a 661 00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 1: lot right now. At the start of the movie, she 662 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,359 Speaker 1: is getting off work from an overnight shift. She works 663 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 1: at a fast food restaurant and is just trying to 664 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:43,320 Speaker 1: get back on her feet, and what she has playing 665 00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 1: for this day is just to go home, go to sleep, 666 00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:47,719 Speaker 1: and get ready for this big job interview that she 667 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,719 Speaker 1: has later in the day, and this totally derails it, 668 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,479 Speaker 1: therefore bringing back the title of the movie, It's gonna 669 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:55,560 Speaker 1: be one of them days. So instead of being able 670 00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:58,319 Speaker 1: to sleep get all prepared for this job interview, she 671 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:00,439 Speaker 1: now has to find a way long with their best 672 00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:03,719 Speaker 1: friends Sizza, to make this money and then trying to 673 00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:06,360 Speaker 1: make it to her job interview on time, because if 674 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:08,799 Speaker 1: you can get that job, it'll change the course of 675 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,399 Speaker 1: her life and get everything back on track. So that 676 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:15,440 Speaker 1: is the dream. Sizza is a little bit opposite of 677 00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 1: her in the fact that she is an artist. She 678 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,520 Speaker 1: has all these paintings all around their apartment, which is 679 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:22,880 Speaker 1: this really runn down apartment. It's not even a nice apartment, 680 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 1: which I think if you're like me, or really like 681 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:28,880 Speaker 1: anybody who grew up going through hard times not having 682 00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 1: a lot, you have lived in an apartment, a trailer 683 00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:34,279 Speaker 1: park or something that resembles this. So I very much 684 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,200 Speaker 1: identified with that. So what I enjoyed about this movie 685 00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:40,160 Speaker 1: is I think it came down to Keiki Palmer and 686 00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:43,360 Speaker 1: Sissa's chemistry, and I thought they worked really well together. 687 00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:46,520 Speaker 1: As best friends. You need that chemistry. And it is 688 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,320 Speaker 1: hard to recommend a comedy because this movie was funny 689 00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:51,880 Speaker 1: to me, it could not be funny to you. And 690 00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:54,480 Speaker 1: I think this is one of those movies that I 691 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,360 Speaker 1: went into it wanting to enjoy it, wanting to have 692 00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:00,160 Speaker 1: a good time, and I allowed myself to open up 693 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:03,240 Speaker 1: to some of the more ridiculous things that did feel 694 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:06,200 Speaker 1: a little bit ninety sitcom here and there. But I 695 00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 1: think the style of overall physical comedy and some of 696 00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 1: the wacky things that were very heightened reminded me of 697 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 1: something of that time period. So if you don't really 698 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 1: like that type of cheesy, over at the top humor, 699 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:21,279 Speaker 1: I think you could watch this movie and think that 700 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 1: is stupid. How did you even find that funny? Why 701 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,520 Speaker 1: do you recommend that? But I leaned into that it 702 00:37:26,560 --> 00:37:30,760 Speaker 1: reminded me of watching episodes of Home Improvement, episodes of Martin, 703 00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,880 Speaker 1: where it's so ridiculous and so dumb, but it is 704 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:37,799 Speaker 1: funny when it comes to all the random things and 705 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 1: fights and ways they try to make money in this movie. 706 00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:44,360 Speaker 1: I found it funny. There's one scene in particular where 707 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,640 Speaker 1: they go to a blood bank. This was also in 708 00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:50,320 Speaker 1: the trailer. She's trying to make money for all this blood. 709 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:52,360 Speaker 1: It's the first day of the worker there, played by 710 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:55,800 Speaker 1: Janelle James, who is also in Abbot Elementary, who plays 711 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:58,360 Speaker 1: the principal in that show. It's her first dage. You 712 00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 1: can't really find the vein and then they end up 713 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:02,439 Speaker 1: getting covered in blood. And then they did it all 714 00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:06,560 Speaker 1: for a free biscuit coupon to go to churches and 715 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:09,799 Speaker 1: get some food. Which, man, that reminded me of back 716 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,840 Speaker 1: in the day where I was living in an apartment 717 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:17,960 Speaker 1: and I would rely so heavily on fast food coupons, 718 00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:19,760 Speaker 1: the ones they would just send to you for free, 719 00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 1: that I would not only take the ones mailed to 720 00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 1: my apartment, but I would go through the trash and 721 00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:27,759 Speaker 1: find the ones that other people threw away, because a 722 00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:29,239 Speaker 1: lot of people see that at junk mail, you're just 723 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:31,840 Speaker 1: gonna throw it away. But I would stock up on 724 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 1: those stings and I would hit lunch on Silvers, taco bell, 725 00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:37,399 Speaker 1: Jack in the box, water Burger, I'd go and get 726 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:39,839 Speaker 1: all those because sometimes you don't have a whole lot 727 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:42,719 Speaker 1: of money saving a buck two bucks getting two for one, 728 00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:45,040 Speaker 1: and that makes all the difference. So it reminded me 729 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:47,160 Speaker 1: of that. That whole bit there was one of my 730 00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 1: favorites that of the entire movie. And even though at 731 00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:52,440 Speaker 1: times this movie did feel predictable, I called a lot 732 00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:54,600 Speaker 1: of the things, and I'm trying to get better at 733 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:58,600 Speaker 1: that because I know that's annoying, but predictability isn't always bad. 734 00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 1: Whatever happened to predictability, I think when it comes to 735 00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,399 Speaker 1: a comedy like this, you're not gonna write a whole 736 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:07,120 Speaker 1: lot of twists and turns and things that come out 737 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:08,719 Speaker 1: of nowhere they make you go, oh, man, I can't 738 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 1: believe they did that. It kind of goes beat by 739 00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 1: beat of what you would expect in a ninety minute comedy, 740 00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:18,000 Speaker 1: so much so that a lot of this plot, given 741 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 1: that it also takes place in one day, very much 742 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,239 Speaker 1: reminded me of Friday. And I thought that back when 743 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:26,200 Speaker 1: I broke it down in the trailer park, because essentially, 744 00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 1: you have two best friends, you have them trying to 745 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:32,239 Speaker 1: pay somebody back. By the end of the day and 746 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:34,880 Speaker 1: if they don't, something bad is going to happen. You 747 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:37,680 Speaker 1: also have Kat Williams who plays a guy named Lucky 748 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 1: in this movie that very much reminded me of the 749 00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 1: comedic relief Ezell in Friday. I would say Kat Williams 750 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:47,719 Speaker 1: was a little bit more of a guardian angel here 751 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 1: where whenever they are trying to go to one of 752 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:54,359 Speaker 1: those payday loan places to get the money and they 753 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:57,959 Speaker 1: have like an astronomical interest rate, he is the one 754 00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:00,480 Speaker 1: outside also in the trailer telling them don't do it. 755 00:40:00,480 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 1: If you don't have the money this month, you're not 756 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:04,640 Speaker 1: going to have the money next month. And I think 757 00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:07,520 Speaker 1: that is another commentary that this movie had where it 758 00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 1: was a comedy, you're not supposed to take it too seriously. 759 00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:14,719 Speaker 1: It's about two best friends and how you kind of 760 00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:16,759 Speaker 1: hate each other at times, but you remember all the 761 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,840 Speaker 1: things you've been through, you remember they're the most supportive 762 00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 1: person in your life. It is also a commentary on 763 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:25,840 Speaker 1: the cycle of being broke and how expensive it is 764 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:29,719 Speaker 1: to be poor and how sometimes you fall into that 765 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:32,960 Speaker 1: and can't get yourself out because it's so cyclical, because 766 00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:34,920 Speaker 1: you do things to try to pull yourself out of 767 00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,480 Speaker 1: debt that puts you more in debt. You take some 768 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:40,360 Speaker 1: money at a payday long place, and suddenly you're paying 769 00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:43,440 Speaker 1: back all this interest on it. So not only was 770 00:40:43,480 --> 00:40:45,239 Speaker 1: it the money that you needed to make your rent, 771 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,200 Speaker 1: but now you have to pay this place back for 772 00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:49,600 Speaker 1: all the interests. It is something that is tough in 773 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:52,359 Speaker 1: this country, where once you are in a hole, it 774 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:55,040 Speaker 1: is so hard to dig yourself out of. And I 775 00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 1: enjoyed that they work that into the plot of talking 776 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:01,920 Speaker 1: about their characters and how much they have to work 777 00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:05,000 Speaker 1: just to make ends meet, talking about their credit scores 778 00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:08,000 Speaker 1: and how low they are, and how sometimes people just 779 00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:10,520 Speaker 1: laugh at them for the situation they are in. The 780 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:12,960 Speaker 1: movie also did pretty well at the box office. It 781 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 1: had a fourteen million dollar budget and made fourteen million 782 00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:22,200 Speaker 1: dollars over MLK weekend, so a big win for Sony. 783 00:41:22,280 --> 00:41:24,799 Speaker 1: I don't think they were expecting it to make that much. 784 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:28,040 Speaker 1: Then again, you have Keki Palmer and Sissa. Keky Palmer 785 00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 1: is a big movie star. Sizza hasn't done a whole 786 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:33,920 Speaker 1: lot of acting. This is her debut, but she's obviously 787 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:37,799 Speaker 1: a massive musician, so there's obviously that star power there 788 00:41:38,160 --> 00:41:40,880 Speaker 1: so to be able to already make in your first 789 00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:44,160 Speaker 1: weekend all of the production budget. Is a big win 790 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:47,719 Speaker 1: for them, especially for a comedy, especially where it is 791 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:50,200 Speaker 1: so hard to get people to go to the theater 792 00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:53,840 Speaker 1: to watch a comedy. I feel like comedies almost have 793 00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:57,440 Speaker 1: that streaming quality to them that people feel like, oh, 794 00:41:57,440 --> 00:41:59,520 Speaker 1: I could just wait to watch that at home. Doesn't 795 00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:01,600 Speaker 1: really ac a whole lot to go see it in theaters, 796 00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:04,080 Speaker 1: but this one did. It was a pretty full theater 797 00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:06,200 Speaker 1: when we went to go see it. I think it 798 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:09,480 Speaker 1: adds something when you hear other people laughing and enjoying it. 799 00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:12,400 Speaker 1: It makes it feel more fluid and makes it feel 800 00:42:12,400 --> 00:42:14,480 Speaker 1: more like, oh, this is the bonding experience of a 801 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:17,520 Speaker 1: lot of random strangers in a theater having a good 802 00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:20,640 Speaker 1: time laughing at these ridiculous things. So I think this 803 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:23,600 Speaker 1: is a big win for everybody involved, for Siza, for 804 00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:27,000 Speaker 1: Kiky Palmer, and for Sony that you can put out 805 00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:30,040 Speaker 1: a comedy like this with two female leads. At times, 806 00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:32,720 Speaker 1: this movie did feel like it had a female director 807 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:35,840 Speaker 1: as well, but it's actually from director Lawrence Lamont who 808 00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:38,880 Speaker 1: this is pretty much his entry into film. That is 809 00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:41,720 Speaker 1: a big win for him too, not his entire injury 810 00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:44,239 Speaker 1: into film. But as far as making a movie on 811 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 1: this scale for everybody involved, this is a sign of 812 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:51,319 Speaker 1: good things to come. I think we see how well 813 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:54,280 Speaker 1: it does in its entire box office run. This also 814 00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:56,680 Speaker 1: feels like a movie that would do really well once 815 00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:59,640 Speaker 1: it goes to streaming, so you could be potentially talking 816 00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:02,839 Speaker 1: seek here. So for one of them days, I give 817 00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:10,040 Speaker 1: it four out of five free biscuit coupons. It's time 818 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 1: to head down to movie Mike trailer Paul Insane in 819 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:18,759 Speaker 1: The Nova Caine. Let's talk about Jack Quaid in a 820 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:22,919 Speaker 1: new action movie called Novacane. He plays a guy who 821 00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:27,480 Speaker 1: can feel pain. You're always looking for pain, he can't 822 00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:31,080 Speaker 1: feel it, which I think. Jack Quaid is a really 823 00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:35,240 Speaker 1: good actor and this is his first real step into 824 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 1: being a leading man. He has done fantastic work as 825 00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:43,279 Speaker 1: Hugheye on The Boys. I've beenhralled in that show since 826 00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 1: it came out. Problem with that show and how many 827 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:51,759 Speaker 1: people are involved in the cast of that hard to 828 00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:55,600 Speaker 1: stand out, and now seeing him in this trailer, I'm like, oh, 829 00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:58,640 Speaker 1: it is a much different feeling when jack Quaid is 830 00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:02,160 Speaker 1: just by himself. Even if you look at his history 831 00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:04,759 Speaker 1: in film, he was in the first Hunger Games back 832 00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 1: in the day, had a very small role in that 833 00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:09,279 Speaker 1: I kind of forgot he was in. That wasn't until 834 00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:11,160 Speaker 1: he got famous with the Boys that I went back 835 00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:14,600 Speaker 1: and realized, oh, he was also in Hunger Games. Most recently, 836 00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:18,280 Speaker 1: he was in Scream that came out in twenty twenty two, 837 00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:21,239 Speaker 1: but again not a lead there. But here he is 838 00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 1: doing a what looks to be a really fun action movie, 839 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 1: a movie after watching the trailer, I pretty much know 840 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:32,640 Speaker 1: what I'm gonna get going into this movie. I don't 841 00:44:32,680 --> 00:44:35,320 Speaker 1: think it's gonna be anything that we haven't seen before, 842 00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:38,279 Speaker 1: but sometimes you just need a fun, shoot him up 843 00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:41,960 Speaker 1: action movie, and I love the premise. So before I 844 00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:44,879 Speaker 1: get into more about this story about a guy who 845 00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:47,319 Speaker 1: can't feel pain, here's just a little bit of the 846 00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 1: Nova Caine trailer. Why don't you just call the police? 847 00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:55,080 Speaker 1: Please can't take I'm in honest man, slaughter, grand theft Auto. 848 00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:57,360 Speaker 1: Do you noticed like to wait your whole life to 849 00:44:57,360 --> 00:45:00,279 Speaker 1: meet someone somebody finally gives your life? Meaning? Would you 850 00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:02,400 Speaker 1: wait around for someone else to save her? Would you 851 00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:07,319 Speaker 1: do it yourself? You've gotta be careful, dude, you can 852 00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:16,280 Speaker 1: still die. You're not Wolverine. Do you understand pain? Oh? 853 00:45:15,719 --> 00:45:22,000 Speaker 1: Oh go no stop it? Ah? I mean, oh wow, 854 00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:26,080 Speaker 1: that hurt. That won't hurt the most. So what happens 855 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 1: in this movie. He is just a regular guy working 856 00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 1: a regular job at a bank until that bank gets robbed. 857 00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 1: Robbers are holding everybody up trying to get the money, 858 00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:40,840 Speaker 1: and then the police arrive early, so they decide to 859 00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:43,680 Speaker 1: take somebody hostage. And right before you see that scene, 860 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:47,120 Speaker 1: he meets this girl. They hook up and apparently he 861 00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:49,279 Speaker 1: can feel stuff there even though he can't feel pain, 862 00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:52,840 Speaker 1: they take her as hostage, so he wants to be 863 00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:56,120 Speaker 1: a hero. Earlier she called him a superhero, so he 864 00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:59,200 Speaker 1: tries to go and save her. But remember, just because 865 00:45:59,239 --> 00:46:02,120 Speaker 1: he can't feel pain doesn't mean that he has all 866 00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:05,080 Speaker 1: these skills of fighting. The only benefit he has against 867 00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:08,680 Speaker 1: these criminals is that nothing is going to It's still 868 00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:10,759 Speaker 1: gonna hurt him, but he's not going to feel it. 869 00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:13,960 Speaker 1: So he steals a police car it looks like, tracks 870 00:46:13,960 --> 00:46:17,200 Speaker 1: these guys down and starts fighting them, trying to get 871 00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:19,680 Speaker 1: her back. But then, as you heard in the clip, 872 00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:22,359 Speaker 1: cops thinks he was a part of it, thinks he's 873 00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:25,279 Speaker 1: involved with these criminals. So not only does he have 874 00:46:25,360 --> 00:46:27,879 Speaker 1: to save her, he also has to clear his name now. 875 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,080 Speaker 1: So just by watching this trailer, just what I've been 876 00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:34,880 Speaker 1: able to infer after watching it, you kind of already 877 00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:37,799 Speaker 1: know it. And sometimes I say, whenever you watch a 878 00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:40,560 Speaker 1: trailer and it feels like you've already watched the entire movie, 879 00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:43,240 Speaker 1: that's a sign of it's going to be a bad movie. 880 00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:46,080 Speaker 1: But I think in this case, the difference is, this 881 00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:48,360 Speaker 1: feels like it's going to be a roller coaster ride. 882 00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:52,719 Speaker 1: Sometimes action movies are predictable, Sometimes rom coms are predictable. 883 00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:56,799 Speaker 1: Sometimes even superhero movies are predictable, but that doesn't make 884 00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:59,719 Speaker 1: them bad. So I kind of know the journey we're 885 00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:03,919 Speaker 1: gonna go on with this character, just because they really 886 00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:06,640 Speaker 1: laid out all the cards by telling us all these things. 887 00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:09,600 Speaker 1: I do love the reference there to Wolverine. That was 888 00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:13,319 Speaker 1: from co star Jacob Badelon, who is also ned in 889 00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:15,680 Speaker 1: the Tom Holland Spider Man movies. But he's the one 890 00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 1: who raises that question and tells them, hey, just because 891 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:22,000 Speaker 1: you can't feel these bullets going through you, these blades 892 00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:24,839 Speaker 1: going through you. One of my favorite scenes is when 893 00:47:24,880 --> 00:47:26,920 Speaker 1: he's fighting a guy trying to get a gun from him, 894 00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:30,040 Speaker 1: and the gun falls into a fryer, and since he 895 00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:32,359 Speaker 1: can't feel pain, he puts his hand into the fryer 896 00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:35,160 Speaker 1: like where you put the fries and his hand comes 897 00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:37,800 Speaker 1: out crisp. I just thought that was a fun moment. 898 00:47:37,840 --> 00:47:40,160 Speaker 1: I want to see more stuff like that. It does 899 00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:44,880 Speaker 1: get into almost that uncomfortable feeling like I can do ooh, 900 00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:47,960 Speaker 1: I can do gunshot wounds. But whenever you get into 901 00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,560 Speaker 1: people getting stabbed and just that sound ooh, it's for 902 00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:54,799 Speaker 1: some reason to me that strikes a nerve in me 903 00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:58,480 Speaker 1: that it makes it uncomfortable for me to watch somebody 904 00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:01,520 Speaker 1: getting stabbed. Is just like, oh, that hurts me a 905 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,400 Speaker 1: little bit. If somebody gets stabbed or breaks a bone, 906 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:08,160 Speaker 1: that is gonna make me feel uncomfortable. And again, like 907 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:11,319 Speaker 1: you said, he's not Wolverine, so we can't regenerate. I 908 00:48:11,400 --> 00:48:14,400 Speaker 1: wonder how they're gonna address how much blood he is 909 00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:18,479 Speaker 1: losing and how much these injuries are actually affecting him. 910 00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:20,560 Speaker 1: But again, at the end of the day, it is 911 00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:22,719 Speaker 1: just a movie, so I don't think they'll spend too 912 00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:25,480 Speaker 1: much time on that. Maybe in the third act where 913 00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:29,399 Speaker 1: he becomes probably just so bloodied up and broken and 914 00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:33,239 Speaker 1: bruised where he can't even fight anymore. But you also 915 00:48:33,320 --> 00:48:35,080 Speaker 1: see a little bit of him and the trailer taking 916 00:48:35,080 --> 00:48:38,120 Speaker 1: some adrenaline, so maybe they'll kind of supplement it with that. 917 00:48:38,400 --> 00:48:41,160 Speaker 1: The other thing I enjoy about Jack Quaid is he's 918 00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:44,920 Speaker 1: always been really open and honest about being a neple baby. 919 00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:48,560 Speaker 1: His dad is Dennis Quaid, his mom is Meg Ryan, 920 00:48:49,120 --> 00:48:52,040 Speaker 1: so I feel that it would be impossible for him 921 00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:57,520 Speaker 1: to not be an actor. Having two alist actors as parents, 922 00:48:57,719 --> 00:49:00,360 Speaker 1: it's kind of hard not to follow the family business. 923 00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:03,359 Speaker 1: My dad is a truck driver. Nobody would have bat 924 00:49:03,400 --> 00:49:05,880 Speaker 1: it deny if I became a truck driver and started 925 00:49:05,960 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 1: driving for my dad. It just seems to be since 926 00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:13,600 Speaker 1: it's Hollywood and those jobs are harder to get. It 927 00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:16,440 Speaker 1: feels like everybody is trying to be an actor and 928 00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:19,640 Speaker 1: it takes so much to make it. Same thing like 929 00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:22,399 Speaker 1: being an athlete. It is so hard to make it 930 00:49:22,719 --> 00:49:26,840 Speaker 1: in anything at that professional level where we see and 931 00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:30,720 Speaker 1: idolize these people, because there are very few people actually 932 00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:32,799 Speaker 1: cut out to do it. I think that is why 933 00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:37,080 Speaker 1: people give celebrity kids such a hard time, because you 934 00:49:37,160 --> 00:49:40,160 Speaker 1: think I would want that job. I want to be 935 00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:42,719 Speaker 1: an actor because it is a dream come true, and 936 00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:46,239 Speaker 1: some people really try to not bring attention to that. 937 00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:50,800 Speaker 1: They'll low key use one of their parents' last names, 938 00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:53,440 Speaker 1: but never bring them up in interviews, never really go 939 00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:56,840 Speaker 1: out in public with them because they don't want that 940 00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:00,000 Speaker 1: negative connotation on their name and for people to think 941 00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:02,239 Speaker 1: that they only got to where they are because of 942 00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:06,040 Speaker 1: who their parents are. Really, anything in entertainment is who 943 00:50:06,080 --> 00:50:08,920 Speaker 1: you know doesn't matter. Even at my level, it's still 944 00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:11,960 Speaker 1: who do you know and what relationships can you form. 945 00:50:12,360 --> 00:50:15,279 Speaker 1: So having parents who have worked in the industry and 946 00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:18,360 Speaker 1: just being able to put you in touch with directors, 947 00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:21,719 Speaker 1: put you in touch with casting agents, it is a 948 00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:24,080 Speaker 1: lot easier to do. But that would be the same 949 00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:26,600 Speaker 1: thing of your dad helping you get a job, your 950 00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:28,880 Speaker 1: mom helping you get a job, anybody in your family. 951 00:50:29,120 --> 00:50:31,000 Speaker 1: When you call your cousin and be like, hey, man, 952 00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:33,880 Speaker 1: could you give me an interview? I feel it is 953 00:50:33,920 --> 00:50:36,960 Speaker 1: that same thing, And if I was in that position, 954 00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:41,200 Speaker 1: I would do it. Why wouldn't you use the resources 955 00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:43,759 Speaker 1: around you? But I also get when they try to 956 00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:46,400 Speaker 1: hide it a little bit and they are so secretive 957 00:50:46,440 --> 00:50:49,160 Speaker 1: about it and it becomes taboo. You don't have to 958 00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:52,160 Speaker 1: hide it, embrace it. And that's what Jackway does. He'll 959 00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:55,080 Speaker 1: talk about an interview, He's like, yeah, I've had a 960 00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:57,719 Speaker 1: little easier route because of who my parents are. I'm 961 00:50:57,719 --> 00:50:59,759 Speaker 1: not going to deny that. I think you have to 962 00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:02,319 Speaker 1: own it and then let your work stand on its own, 963 00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:05,840 Speaker 1: because just because you have two A list parents. I 964 00:51:05,880 --> 00:51:08,640 Speaker 1: even think of somebody like Maya Hank as Ethan Hank 965 00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:12,560 Speaker 1: and Uma Thurman's parents. Just because she has those parents 966 00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:15,880 Speaker 1: doesn't mean that she's gonna be a great actor and 967 00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:20,040 Speaker 1: that audiences are going to embrace her. It will get 968 00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:22,680 Speaker 1: her foot in the door, it will get her into 969 00:51:22,719 --> 00:51:26,719 Speaker 1: some projects. But unless she does a good job, connects 970 00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:30,600 Speaker 1: with her co stars, has good relationships with directors on 971 00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:34,640 Speaker 1: her own, they aren't going to have the same career. 972 00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:38,480 Speaker 1: It's not guaranteed. There aren't some NEPO babies who haven't 973 00:51:38,520 --> 00:51:41,800 Speaker 1: worked out who as much money as their parents spend 974 00:51:41,880 --> 00:51:45,320 Speaker 1: on them, not just in movies, but in music as well. 975 00:51:45,360 --> 00:51:47,960 Speaker 1: I see even more in music where I say, hey, 976 00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:50,600 Speaker 1: my parents are rich, They're gonna pay for all the 977 00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:53,800 Speaker 1: studio time and do all these things, and I don't 978 00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:56,759 Speaker 1: have to work as far as have a nine to 979 00:51:56,800 --> 00:51:59,480 Speaker 1: five job to grind to make it, and it's a 980 00:51:59,520 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 1: lot easier when there's money there to grease the wheels 981 00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:05,319 Speaker 1: and you have those connections. So I think even for me, 982 00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:08,239 Speaker 1: who I grew up didn't have a whole lot, I 983 00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:10,759 Speaker 1: can see why you would respect somebody who has had 984 00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:13,040 Speaker 1: to grind for it more from the bottom up, and 985 00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:15,720 Speaker 1: why you connect with those people more. But I still 986 00:52:15,800 --> 00:52:19,640 Speaker 1: think we shouldn't hold it against people when it comes 987 00:52:19,680 --> 00:52:22,760 Speaker 1: to movies, when it comes to even music, just because 988 00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:26,200 Speaker 1: who their parents are, and they use those connections because 989 00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:27,960 Speaker 1: you got to think about you would probably use them 990 00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:31,080 Speaker 1: as well. It's just different because it's an entertainment. So 991 00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:34,400 Speaker 1: this will be I feel, one of the first big 992 00:52:34,480 --> 00:52:38,040 Speaker 1: tests of Jack Kwaid. I don't think this is a 993 00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:40,200 Speaker 1: make or break role. If this movie ends up bombing 994 00:52:40,239 --> 00:52:42,080 Speaker 1: at the box office, I don't think his career is 995 00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:44,560 Speaker 1: done because The Boys is still going on. He can 996 00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:47,200 Speaker 1: fall back on that series. But I think he's starting 997 00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:49,840 Speaker 1: to get at that point where he knows The Boys 998 00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:53,160 Speaker 1: won't go on forever. He doesn't want to be typecast 999 00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:56,839 Speaker 1: as Hueye. And when you see some other people in 1000 00:52:56,880 --> 00:52:59,879 Speaker 1: like the MCU or on the DC side who have 1001 00:53:00,080 --> 00:53:03,319 Speaker 1: had success with something. I compare him to Superhero movie 1002 00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:06,600 Speaker 1: just because he is in that world. You don't want 1003 00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:10,200 Speaker 1: you just have your entire work set in that world 1004 00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:12,840 Speaker 1: and be typecast and not be able to go do 1005 00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:16,400 Speaker 1: projects that you really want to see yourself grow in. 1006 00:53:16,719 --> 00:53:19,000 Speaker 1: So I think this will be one of his first 1007 00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:21,880 Speaker 1: big adventures out. I think it'll actually do pretty well. 1008 00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:23,720 Speaker 1: If you look at the comments in the YouTube section, 1009 00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:26,239 Speaker 1: there are a lot of fans of the boys there 1010 00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:28,560 Speaker 1: saying can't wait to see how he does, a lot 1011 00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:31,520 Speaker 1: of Huey comments, So I think he has that audience 1012 00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:34,319 Speaker 1: there who is gonna carry over to watch him on 1013 00:53:34,360 --> 00:53:36,920 Speaker 1: the big screen. So the movie is called Novakane. It 1014 00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:40,200 Speaker 1: comes out in theaters on March fourteenth. Geez at that 1015 00:53:40,320 --> 00:53:44,000 Speaker 1: on was this week's edition of movie Line tram or Bar. 1016 00:53:44,400 --> 00:53:47,040 Speaker 1: It's not as going to do it for another episode 1017 00:53:47,080 --> 00:53:49,640 Speaker 1: here of the podcast, but before I go, I gotta 1018 00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:52,920 Speaker 1: give my listeners shout out of the week this week. 1019 00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:56,400 Speaker 1: I'm going over to TikTok because at the moment of 1020 00:53:56,440 --> 00:54:01,319 Speaker 1: recording this episode, TikTok still alive and thriving, but by 1021 00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:04,640 Speaker 1: the time this episode actually posts, it could be gone. Y'all. 1022 00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:07,200 Speaker 1: It's not going to get immediately deleted from our phones. 1023 00:54:07,640 --> 00:54:10,680 Speaker 1: They are going to take it away from the app store, 1024 00:54:11,040 --> 00:54:14,080 Speaker 1: essentially suffocating the app because it won't be able to 1025 00:54:14,160 --> 00:54:18,320 Speaker 1: update anymore. So I wanted to feature somebody from TikTok 1026 00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:20,439 Speaker 1: because we might not have it forever and that makes 1027 00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:23,319 Speaker 1: me sad. But this week's listener Chad of the Week 1028 00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:26,640 Speaker 1: goes to Chad dub who actually commented with the question 1029 00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:30,399 Speaker 1: I addressed earlier in the episode, wanting to know if 1030 00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:34,560 Speaker 1: the R rated Jurassic Park rumor was actually true. Chad 1031 00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:36,600 Speaker 1: was actually the one who even turned me on too 1032 00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:39,600 Speaker 1: that because I didn't see the fake poster until I 1033 00:54:39,640 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 1: saw Chad's message. Also sent a follow up message saying 1034 00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:45,719 Speaker 1: he loves the podcast, so appreciate you, Chad. Thank you 1035 00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:47,839 Speaker 1: for sending me things like that. And when it comes 1036 00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:50,400 Speaker 1: to any kind of fake poster, sometimes I just dismissed 1037 00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:54,040 Speaker 1: him altogether and don't think about it. And usually they 1038 00:54:54,120 --> 00:54:57,640 Speaker 1: are so bad that I feel that, ah, nobody's falling 1039 00:54:57,640 --> 00:55:00,000 Speaker 1: for this. But sometimes you got to address those because 1040 00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:02,080 Speaker 1: if I would have seen it, maybe I would have 1041 00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:04,000 Speaker 1: believed that one a little bit. So thank you, Chad. 1042 00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:07,759 Speaker 1: Thank you to everybody listening right now and until next time, 1043 00:55:08,360 --> 00:55:10,759 Speaker 1: go out and watch good movies and I will talk 1044 00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:12,239 Speaker 1: to you.
