We've been talking a lot 18 00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: about the political shift, and the numbers speak to that 19 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 1: with tremendous clarity. There's never been a worse time for 20 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 1: the Democrat Party in our lifetime, and Republicans are probably 21 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:01,160 Speaker 1: in the strongest position they've ever been in our lifetime. 22 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: Thank you Trump, Trump's team, the people around him, the 23 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 1: Republicans who have rallied towards sanity, those of us who 24 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: stood strong during COVID. I mean, you know, there are 25 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 1: a lot of hands, all of you supporting this show 26 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:16,360 Speaker 1: and supporting the show for thirty plus years before that 27 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: by being a part of the army of patriots that 28 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 1: Rush Limbaugh created and brought together. So you know, there's 29 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 1: a lot that's gone into this. But we are at 30 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 1: a peak moment right now, and we are even seeing 31 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 1: it reflected, not just in the fortunes of the Republican 32 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: Party and of the downfall of what used to be 33 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 1: called by many the mainstream media. I agree with those 34 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 1: who say we shouldn't call them that, why are they 35 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 1: mainstream the Democrat corporate media, but also in the cultural 36 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 1: side of things, there are changes happening. We will not 37 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:52,720 Speaker 1: get into White Lotus right now, because I don't think 38 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: that many of you watch it, and I don't want 39 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,760 Speaker 1: to argue with Clay about whether it's worth continued to 40 00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: watch White Lotus. After the most recent episode, I was 41 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 1: pretty horrified.

You know, maybe my mind 48 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: is more like a delicate flower these days when it 49 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: comes to my content at entertainment. I don't like things 50 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 1: that are too violent. I don't like things that are 51 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: too body.

Snow White was at one 85 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: point the first, I believe, the first full length animated 86 00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: feature released in theaters back in nineteen thirty seven, am I. 87 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: If I get any of these wrong, team, let me know. 88 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: It was wildly popular and the you know, the Disney 89 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: so much of I think like the the Disney really 90 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:27,919 Speaker 1: had two things going for it for a long time. 91 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 1: People love the parks. Fine another parks have become very 92 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: expensive now, but people love the parks and they love 93 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 1: the animated those those animated features. I mean, I grew 94 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: up and we've all seen I think ninety what do 95 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 1: you think ninety five percent of our listeners have seen 96 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: the original snow White, the original cartoon. I would be 97 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 1: if you have, you would be I don't know how 98 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: you wouldn't have seen it, right, I mean, and if 99 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:51,359 Speaker 1: you didn't see it when you were a kid, you 100 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 1: have kids, you've seen it, right, So and it's really 101 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 1: an iconic It's an iconic animated film, and I think 102 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: Disney had a number of these over the years, you know, 103 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: Sleeping Beauty. I actually really liked some of you are 104 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 1: going to laugh, but I really liked the Robin Hood 105 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: with Robinhood as a fox. Do you hear what I'm 106 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: talking about? As a cartoon? 107 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 2: Oh? I love that Growing up Peter Pan your favorite 108 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:17,320 Speaker 2: along with Robin. 109 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:23,239 Speaker 1: Great animation, great music, great stories, and this is stuff 110 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 1: that everyone really celebrates. This is a really amazing part 111 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: of American culture. 112 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 2: Let me hit you with a detail that will bring 113 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 2: home how profitable snow White was. And you may have 114 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 2: had I was reading because I wanted to do my 115 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 2: research on this too. Snow White, adjusted for inflation dollars, 116 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 2: basically made the Walt Disney Company Disney. Walt Disney mortgaged 117 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 2: his own home to be able to finish producing snow 118 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 2: White because it was so expensive at that point in 119 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 2: time to make an animated film. It made four billion dollars. Okay, 120 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 2: let me repeat that because the Bee four billion dollars 121 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 2: in modern American money. So this thing was so outrageously 122 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:15,040 Speaker 2: popular that it basically funded Disneyland eventually Disney World. This 123 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 2: was what put Disney on the map as a global 124 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 2: corporation that was capable of churning out incredible content. This 125 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 2: was what they created, the animation studios, everything. So it 126 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 2: is not only beloved buck, it is one of the greatest, 127 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 2: most successful commercial art products in the history of the 128 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 2: United States. 129 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, that puts it into context very well. And I 130 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: remember I saw with my parents in the theaters. Lion King, Oh, Aladdin, 131 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 1: Beauty and the Beast. Beauty the Beast is a great movie. 132 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: It's a great any animated. It was actually nominated for 133 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 1: Best Picture, not Best Animated Feature, Best Movie the year 134 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,599 Speaker 1: that it came out. The music is excellent. Look. I 135 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 1: know some people cartoons aren't their thing, but I think 136 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 1: cartoons out. I actually think cartoon can be really impressive 137 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 1: and amazing if they're done well. I like the old cartoons, 138 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 1: even with bugs bunnies, but put bugs bunny. Put that aside. Clay, 139 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: this new Disney. If you and I sat here scripting 140 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: out a way to ruin Disney to do a like 141 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: a farce or as send up if you will, of Wokeness, 142 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: I don't know if we could have done better than this. 143 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 1: They have changed. There's a whole listing of all these 144 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 1: things they've changed. They have changed the dwarfs and this 145 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:31,480 Speaker 1: is okay. I think this is my favorite part of this. 146 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: First of all, it made forty million dollars opening weekend, 147 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: which is an absolute abject disaster. As we've talked about here, 148 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,200 Speaker 1: all the movies money comes in the first month, and 149 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 1: a lot of it needs to come in the first 150 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: weekend for momentum. Remember, people haven't seen it. Now people 151 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: have seen it, they say it stinks, they say it's trash. 152 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 1: So next week it's going to be worse, and the 153 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 1: weekend after that's gonna be worse. This is gonna cost 154 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: Disney hundreds of millions of dollars. Yeah, one all said 155 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 1: hundreds of millions of dollars of pure loss on this. 156 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: But the what is your favorite thing about the change 157 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: they made that they wouldn't use actual dwarf actors because 158 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 1: Peter Dinklic, who had probably the greatest dwarf role of 159 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 1: all time in Game of Throw a good job in it, 160 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: but I think, you know, a little too little, too 161 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 1: high on his own stuff here, a little too big, 162 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 1: big for his breeches. Literally he yeah, he decided, he 163 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 1: decided that it was weird and out of date to 164 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 1: have actual dwarves play dwarves, so they replaced them with 165 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 1: CGI dwarves and dwarf actors out there, and there are 166 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 1: dwarf actors out there. 167 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 2: Are were fear and I totally agree with them. 168 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 1: Furious about this because this is like the chance of 169 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,559 Speaker 1: a lifetime to be in a globally, you know, resonating 170 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: film as a dwarf actor. It's like they this is 171 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: wokeness just eating itself. 172 00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 2: They could have made a movie that was a ninety 173 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 2: years based later, a nostalgic recreation of the spirit that 174 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 2: imbued the original snow White, which made the Disney Corporation possible. 175 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 2: But because they have decided that they need to be 176 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 2: woke Disney, they created an awful version of a movie 177 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,199 Speaker 2: that many people would have loved, of all races and 178 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,440 Speaker 2: all backgrounds. And I think this is going to be 179 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,120 Speaker 2: seen I think you said it well at the end 180 00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 2: of the last hour. I think this is going to 181 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 2: be seen as a cultural signpost of what woke can 182 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 2: do to great Americana. And Disney has to a large extent, 183 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 2: destroyed Star Wars by trying to wokeify it. As Look, 184 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 2: I don't begrudge any story that is like Lost. Lost 185 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 2: was a great television show back in the day. It 186 00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 2: also happened to have a diverse set of characters, but 187 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:04,559 Speaker 2: it fit the story right. It's an airplane that crashes 188 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 2: on an island. It would make sense that the airplane 189 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 2: would be filled with a cross section of American life, right, yeah, 190 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 2: the airplane wasn't coming from Finland, like, yes, there could 191 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 2: be lots of different kinds of people on the plane. 192 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 2: So the idea that snow White needs to be replaced 193 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 2: with a Latina actress, or that Captain America needs to 194 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 2: be replaced with a black actor, or that you need 195 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 2: to somehow decide that you are going to change the 196 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 2: historic relevancy of a show because it doesn't meet modern 197 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 2: day standards of diversity, I think is going up in smoke. 198 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 2: And the example I'll give of this that I think 199 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 2: is actually the worst two of them Hamilton. 200 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 1: All Right. 201 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,440 Speaker 2: I I've made it clear that I'm not a huge 202 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:52,720 Speaker 2: fan of musicals, Okay, but I don't like the idea of, hey, 203 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 2: We're going to make American historical figures different races because 204 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,960 Speaker 2: races are so inconsequential. Okay, When is the Country and 205 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:05,120 Speaker 2: Western version of the Obama administration going to occur with 206 00:11:05,320 --> 00:11:07,360 Speaker 2: Blake Shelton playing Barack Obama? 207 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: Right? When? Why is it that in Hamilton the one 208 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: bad guy is the only whit white guy the King 209 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 1: of Why can't the King of England be black? What 210 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 1: am I missing? 211 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:19,200 Speaker 2: And this? 212 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: But what's the messaging there? Everybody, you know, I do 213 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: look at these things, well, what's the message they're telling 214 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:26,079 Speaker 1: people with this? 215 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 2: And then what is the pride and prejudice or what's 216 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 2: the Bridgerton I think is the show that's on Netflix 217 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 2: and it's about seventeenth and eighteenth century England, except there 218 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:40,440 Speaker 2: are all these different races that are playing the British actors. 219 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I can't. I can't even pay attention to 220 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 2: that show because I'm like, well, it's set in seventeen 221 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 2: eighties England. These are white people, right, Like in the 222 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 2: same way if you give me a story about Nigeria 223 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,679 Speaker 2: in sixteen forty and there's a bunch of white people 224 00:11:57,679 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 2: playing black people, I mean, like, I don't. I can't 225 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 2: get into this story. It's so flagrantly historically inaccurate. 226 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 1: You know. I was trying to watch on that I 227 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: love historically. My brothers make fun of me. They always say, 228 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,679 Speaker 1: if there's like beard, swords and meat drinking, I'll like it, 229 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 1: you know, which is pretty much true. Like I like 230 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:19,679 Speaker 1: anything that's you know, historical piece European history. I love Gladiator, 231 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:21,959 Speaker 1: I love Brave Heart, I love those kinds of things. 232 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: And I tried to watch on Netflix. This show, the 233 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 1: Viking Show, and there was a yarl, which is like 234 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 1: an earl or a prince or whatever in Vikings. In 235 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 1: the I guess it was the ninth you know, ninth century, 236 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,839 Speaker 1: the eight hundreds. It's a black woman who's the who's 237 00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 1: cast as the head of this vibe, and it's supposed 238 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 1: to be like a historic these are real people's names. 239 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 1: Is she supposed to be black or are you not 240 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 1: supposed to notice that she's black? I think I only 241 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: watch the first episode. I think you're just not supposed 242 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 1: to notice, Like it's just, oh, like, we've made her 243 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 1: a black female, and you made him it was actually 244 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 1: a guy obviously who was the yarl. So you make 245 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 1: it a female, and you make it a black female 246 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: because you think Clay pep are so sick of this 247 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:03,720 Speaker 1: to the point you're making Game of Thrones another show 248 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:07,199 Speaker 1: very diverse. Nobody has a problem with diverse characters in 249 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 1: whether it's fiction or even fantasy genre. That's fine. But 250 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 1: when you're setting something in a historical context, you know 251 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 1: you would think that there are some basic authenticity components 252 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: of it that you would likely if you're setting a 253 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: show in Iceland, in you know, the year one thousand, 254 00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 1: you're not going to have a lot of Latinos. You're 255 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 1: just not going to have them. Like, it's not a 256 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: knock on latinos. They liked being warm, they were not 257 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: in Iceland. 258 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 2: If we watched a story about the Civil War, my 259 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 2: favorite part in history, and there was a character playing 260 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 2: Frederick Douglas and it was a white woman, I would 261 00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 2: be like, you know, this has taken me a little 262 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 2: outside of the story because Frederick Douglas was a black guy, right, Like, 263 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 2: some level of historical accuracy for historic fact seems necessary 264 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 2: to me. And this is an example of what Disney 265 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 2: has done. I think they have taken something that people 266 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 2: loved and decided that they needed to make it more 267 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 2: expansive when everybody already loved it right well, also they 268 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:06,199 Speaker 2: and the way we didn't even get into all the 269 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 2: different ways. So first, the Dwarves are CGI, which is 270 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 2: I also think CGI in general ruins movies. I think 271 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 2: it should be used very sparingly. To me, it's like 272 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 2: drops on a radio show, like you can use them 273 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 2: here and there, but it can't be you know, like 274 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:22,200 Speaker 2: like if you have you know, you know what I'm 275 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 2: talking about. If you have a radio show that's all 276 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 2: just sound effects all the time. You start to be 277 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 2: like that, you know that Kramer guy on the with 278 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 2: the uh uh, you know the Finance show. Whatever's like 279 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 2: Hong Kong Hong konk I mean, it's just too much. 280 00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 2: You gotta be very sparing with your CGI. So that's 281 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 2: what CGI dwarfs horrible idea. They changed the music. They've 282 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 2: changed the musical numbers from basically the most successful on 283 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 2: screen musical of all time close to it maybe maybe 284 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 2: like the Sound of Music or you know, Gone with 285 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 2: the Wind. But they change the music, which is which 286 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 2: is madness. 287 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 3: And I must just say this. This woman is playing 288 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 3: the Disney Princess. She just doesn't look like it. She's 289 00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 3: just not that pretty. She doesn't look like a Disney princess. 290 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 3: I don't know, you know, am I am I alone 291 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 3: in this one? 292 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 1: I don't know. 293 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 2: I think if they had put Sidney Sweeney in as 294 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 2: snow White, it would have made a billion dollars. Yes, 295 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:11,360 Speaker 2: I mean, just give me a really pretty white chick 296 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 2: and let her actually play the role of snow White. 297 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 2: I mean the crazy thing to. 298 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 1: Be a really pretty, a really pretty chick, like I 299 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 1: just don't think this woman is Disney princess material. 300 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, how about the fact saying gal Gadou is 301 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 2: way better looking and way more looks like snow White, 302 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 2: but she's the evil princess. 303 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, that's a weird decision too, Right, she's Disney 304 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 1: princess kind of material. And and you you know, if 305 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,080 Speaker 1: you're just she was wonderful. Okay, you're allowed to want 306 00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: pretty people to play the Disney princess or the queen 307 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 1: or whatever. So let's take some take some let's take 308 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 1: some snow White calls here. I'm sure people will be 309 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 1: fired up about this, no doubt. 310 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 2: In the meantime, I want to tell you guys all 311 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 2: about our friends at Hillsdale. 312 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 1: Maybe they need to start doing some. 313 00:15:55,480 --> 00:16:01,040 Speaker 2: Historic pop culture classes, because my thing, buck is, if 314 00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 2: everybody already loves something, maybe do something similar to that again, right, Like, hey, 315 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 2: it's pretty successful. We've built the most successful animated film 316 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 2: of all time. Maybe people are just actually very fond 317 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 2: of what already has happened.

She ended up marrying justin Timberlake, 376 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 1: so I guess she did okay, but that did not 377 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,879 Speaker 1: help her career. I'm trying to see who else is 378 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: on this list of notable There's a lot of them, 379 00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 1: and the thing is, I think all of the movies 380 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,760 Speaker 1: that are on the bomb list are are terrible. So 381 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: that's the thing. It's not there The Adventures of Pluto 382 00:19:38,640 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 1: Nash two thousand and two, Eddie Murphy one hundred and 383 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:48,239 Speaker 1: sixty eight million dollar loss adjusted for inflation. That may 384 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 1: that's like a top contender for all time losses. Play 385 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 1: Heaven's Gate nineteen eighty. I've never seen that. I don't 386 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 1: even know who's I think it's a Western kind of 387 00:19:57,359 --> 00:20:00,600 Speaker 1: some kind of like a Western on the prairies, pioneer 388 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 1: movie or something. Do you know what I'm talking about. 389 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've heard the name of the title, but I 390 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 2: didn't know. 391 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:08,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's there's a bunch of these, a lot of 392 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:10,119 Speaker 1: them I've never even really heard of. 393 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 2: I'll tell you one and again. I think it's important 394 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 2: to adjust these things for inflation. And if you're wondering, 395 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 2: it's because. 396 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 1: Danna Jones and The Dial of Destiny one hundred and 397 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,120 Speaker 1: fifty million dollar loss. I didn't know that. 398 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 2: I went and saw it. It was not great Cleopatra 399 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 2: with Elizabeth Taylor. Fox lost Twentieth Century. Fox lost so 400 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 2: much money on that movie that they had to sell 401 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,920 Speaker 2: off part of the movie lot. If you're in La 402 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,680 Speaker 2: right now and you wonder like the whole Century City development, 403 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 2: the Westfield Mall, all of that area. They lost so 404 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 2: much money making the Cleopatra movie that they had to 405 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:52,200 Speaker 2: sell off acres of the studio. Cutthroat Island nineteen ninety five, 406 00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 2: which is I think Matthew Modine and Geena Davis lost 407 00:20:56,520 --> 00:21:01,840 Speaker 2: two hundred and seventeen million dollars and goes down with 408 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 2: the ignominious distinction of being the only movie in history 409 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:10,679 Speaker 2: that it is believed to have brought down the studio. 410 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 1: Bankrupted the studio. 411 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,200 Speaker 2: That is, that's when you're that's when you got a 412 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 2: lot of money at stake. A couple of ones that 413 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:19,920 Speaker 2: I remember, and we're talking about this in the context 414 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 2: of the Disney Snow Snow White disaster water World, Remember 415 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 2: Kevin Costner, that was like one of the all time losers. 416 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:31,160 Speaker 1: That's an asterisk though, because my understanding is that they 417 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: made the sets for real out on the water and 418 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:37,360 Speaker 1: there was a big storm and destroyed everything that they 419 00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:40,199 Speaker 1: had made. So that was a rough one and I 420 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:42,320 Speaker 1: don't know if they really had the insurance they needed 421 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,480 Speaker 1: for it. So because that movie is not good, have 422 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 1: you seen it? Yeah, it is not good, but it 423 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 1: is not awful. I would say it is like it 424 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 1: is a set almost watchable not quite watchable, wild Wild West. 425 00:21:57,040 --> 00:22:01,359 Speaker 1: Will Smith movie was supposedly an unmitigated disaster. But a 426 00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: lot of these have two things in common. 427 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:08,680 Speaker 2: One is their big risks, like Kevin Costner, I'm gonna 428 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 2: build a water world. Frankly, James Cameron has has panned 429 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,639 Speaker 2: out with a lot of what he has done. But 430 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:19,200 Speaker 2: you know, when you do The Titanic, it's not exactly 431 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:21,199 Speaker 2: a cheap thing to make. When you make what's the 432 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 2: movies that have made so much money the Avatars, billions 433 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 2: of dollars on those big swings. Okay, you shouldn't lose 434 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 2: massive amounts of money remaking something that everyone wants, like 435 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 2: that's the entire purpose of the remake is you can't 436 00:22:38,040 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 2: lose that the way you have a ten plath on this, 437 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 2: you can't lose money. 438 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 1: They think West Side Story in twenty twenty one lost 439 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:49,680 Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty million dollars adjusted for inflation. To bot, 440 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 1: how do you how do you make a West Side 441 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 1: Story remake that totally bombs? That's I don't even know 442 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: how that's possible. 443 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:59,840 Speaker 2: Well, I would have told you a musical on television. Now, 444 00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 2: they did make a lot of money on Wicked, but 445 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:06,320 Speaker 2: in Chicago. Chicago was a big hit West Side story 446 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,159 Speaker 2: is what's sixty seventy years old? Are there tons of 447 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 2: people out there clamoring to go see that? I would 448 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:16,800 Speaker 2: have called that into question. The snow White failure is 449 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:20,239 Speaker 2: to me again, why I think it's so fascinating is 450 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:27,200 Speaker 2: I think it represents an era. Everybody loved snow White. 451 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:31,679 Speaker 2: You find a pretty girl, you cast her as snow White. 452 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:35,159 Speaker 2: If you're deciding to do remakes live action, which I 453 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 2: think is you know it's lazy, right, Like do we 454 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 2: really need to see a live action remake of The 455 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 2: Lion King, which is mostly CGI because it's got animals 456 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 2: in it. But you create this disaster and it's so 457 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:56,640 Speaker 2: foreseeable and it follows buck in Everybody loves Star Wars. 458 00:23:56,880 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 2: Let's light Star Wars on Fire. Everybody they built the 459 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:04,399 Speaker 2: Marvel franchise up and then they lit it on fire. 460 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 2: It's like they can't figure out how to go once 461 00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 2: the Infinity War Avengers in game thing ended. It's like 462 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 2: everything has been on the backside of that a disaster. 463 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:19,160 Speaker 2: I just and the Newest, the Newest Indiana Jones people 464 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 2: had issues with. I went and watched it, but you 465 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 2: took what made Indiana Jones great, his rugged individuality, and 466 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 2: you instead brought in a girl boss who was like 467 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 2: leading Indiana Jones around. And a lot of people said, 468 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,639 Speaker 2: I watch Indiana Jones because he's the badass. I don't 469 00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 2: need like a new character to be the leader here. 470 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 2: James in Texas wants to weigh in about Disney. James welcome, 471 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 2: you know. 472 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 4: And the thing about it is is Disney would have 473 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:54,680 Speaker 4: already known that the projected opening weekend for snow Watt 474 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:57,120 Speaker 4: was going to be bad because they based it off 475 00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 4: of pre ticket sales, so they are he knew this 476 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 4: as of a couple of weeks ago, and I believe 477 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 4: I saw on the news as of last week that 478 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:10,680 Speaker 4: it was put before the Disney board to slow down 479 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 4: or make changes to their DEI slash Wop program. And 480 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 4: the board turned that down. They said keep it the same. 481 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you, Micall. I'm not sure about that. I 482 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 2: will tell you, Buck, this ties in pretty well with 483 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:28,120 Speaker 2: what I've seen with the rise of OutKick. Everybody loves sports, 484 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 2: how about just show sports, you know, like, let's just 485 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 2: have sports highlights and debate who the best is or 486 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 2: whatever else. Let's not have arguments about politics on ESPN 487 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,359 Speaker 2: would be an easy fix. I think, Yeah, Disney share 488 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 2: this is Fox Business. A few days ago, our caller, 489 00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:48,120 Speaker 2: I think is refernd to this is correct. Disney shareholders 490 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:52,159 Speaker 2: widely voted against a proposal to reconsider participation in the 491 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:57,159 Speaker 2: Corporate Equality Index. So this is an anti DEI proposal 492 00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 2: that came up and they didn't. Now we can get 493 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 2: into some of the details about this, but well a 494 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:04,640 Speaker 2: lot of times with those proposals, the reality is the 495 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:06,520 Speaker 2: and this is like diving. 496 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 1: We're getting into proxy voting now and everything. 497 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not most individuals voting. It's the large, often 498 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,480 Speaker 2: left wing. Uh, this is where Vivek has gone. Black 499 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:21,399 Speaker 2: creat culture, black rock, all this different black rock. Sorry, yeah, Alan, 500 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 2: in South Carolina, you went and saw the new snow White. 501 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:24,840 Speaker 2: What do you think? 502 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 1: Oh boy, here we go. 503 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,640 Speaker 5: So so, my wife and I were screening the film 504 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 5: before we showed it to our children. And the best 505 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 5: way I can summarize the way I feel about it is, 506 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:35,199 Speaker 5: you know, it felt like I was watching the end 507 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:37,680 Speaker 5: of Planet of the Apes over and over and over again, 508 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:41,919 Speaker 5: just this gut wretching, awful feeling. So you and how 509 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:45,439 Speaker 5: old are you Allen, I'm thirty seven. So you and 510 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 5: and how many kids do you have? Two? 511 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 2: Okay, so you and your wife on a date night 512 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,639 Speaker 2: were like, Hey, we're gonna go watch snow White before 513 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 2: we take our kids to see it, which is interesting. 514 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 1: This was a reconnaissance reconnaissance mission. 515 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 2: But the fact that you would think compelled to go 516 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 2: to a Disney movie to see it first to see 517 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,000 Speaker 2: whether or not you could take your kids probably not 518 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 2: a great branding side for Disney. Did your wife feel 519 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:11,760 Speaker 2: the same way as you? What was her take? 520 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 1: She did? 521 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 5: I fortunately married a very conservative woman. But it's it 522 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 5: is really sad. We almost have to go on and 523 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:21,920 Speaker 5: collect intel from the movie prior to, you know, exposing 524 00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 5: it to our children. 525 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:26,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's crazy, thank you. I mean, in nineteen thirty seven, 526 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 2: do you think anybody was out there like, hey, I 527 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 2: don't know if we can trust Disney to go watch 528 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:33,439 Speaker 2: snow White? To your point, Buck, hey, Robin Hood, is 529 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 2: this going to be too salacious? Is this going to 530 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 2: be too political for me to take my kid? Peter 531 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 2: Pan like Dumbo, whatever you want to point to. Do 532 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 2: you think that in the nineteen fifties and sixties and 533 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 2: even when we were growing up in the eighties and 534 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,400 Speaker 2: nineties with Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin and all 535 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:50,880 Speaker 2: those movies that there were any you might have been concerned, 536 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 2: are they a little bit too scary for young kids? 537 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 2: Those kind of things, But nobody was like, Hey, I 538 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:57,119 Speaker 2: gotta worry about what the messaging is. 539 00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: But you know, there's there's also something that's been lost 540 00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 1: here in the creative industries, notably what we see in movies, 541 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:09,480 Speaker 1: but also TV and and it's that a great story. 542 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:13,640 Speaker 1: There's something universal in the humanity of a great story. 543 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 1: People just want great stories. They want they want good 544 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,840 Speaker 1: guys and bad guys. They want you know, heroes and princesses. 545 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 1: They want triumph, they want trials and tribulation. You know 546 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 1: that they want the the the you know, right hand 547 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:32,000 Speaker 1: best friend of the hero to come through in the moment. 548 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 1: I mean these things. And whether you set the story 549 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: in medieval Europe or you set the story in you know, 550 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,840 Speaker 1: Southeast Asia or Central Africa, if it's a great story, 551 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 1: it's a great story. And we don't you know that. 552 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 1: That's that's what I find so so annoying about this. 553 00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 1: I mean, you see, they have something that should be 554 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 1: viewed as you. What I'm trying to say is snow 555 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 1: White should be you to view it as something that 556 00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 1: is a universal cultural phenomenon. That's why what you can enjoy. 557 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 1: That's where this is. Everyone can enjoy. Mozart is for everybody. 558 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 1: That's the great thing. It doesn't matter where Mozart was from. Ultimately, 559 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 1: the music is for everybody and for all perpetuity the 560 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 1: human race, and we should all enjoy it. We should all. 561 00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 1: Don't even get me started about how incredible Mozart is. 562 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 1: Point is, they do this thing now where it's like 563 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 1: they're keeping score. Oh, we've had too many, you know, 564 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 1: there have been too many musicians or too many authors 565 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 1: from this place or that country, or of this skin 566 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 1: color or that gender, and so we have to do 567 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 1: other things now they don't. Actually, that doesn't work, and 568 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 1: they don't have to do that because we can all 569 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: appreciate the art for what it is. And that's where 570 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 1: I think I think so much of this falls apart. 571 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 2: That's why for me, Star Wars and now the Disney 572 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 2: movies are perfect examples of this. You had one of 573 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 2: the most successful movies in the history of the world 574 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 2: in Snow White. To your point buck. At least ninety 575 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:02,239 Speaker 2: five percent of this audience have seen it, either as 576 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:06,680 Speaker 2: kids yourselves, or as parents or as grandparents. You had 577 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 2: a built in audience that loved it, and then you're 578 00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 2: trying to make it for a new generation. Well, wait 579 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 2: a minute, it's already been made and everybody loves it. 580 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 2: The remake idea in general doesn't make sense. But if 581 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 2: you're going to remake something, then remake it basically the 582 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 2: exact same story, because Snow White is transcendent in many 583 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 2: ways as a story, and the same thing is true 584 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 2: of Star Wars. I understand characters age out, but the 585 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:44,680 Speaker 2: idea that Star Wars wasn't expansive enough in its audience. 586 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 2: It's the most expansive successful series in the history of 587 00:30:49,440 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 2: the world. Probably, is there anything that's made more money 588 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:55,480 Speaker 2: than Star Wars from a movie perspective A series maybe 589 00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 2: James Bond, just because they've made way more of them. 590 00:30:58,320 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 2: But basically Star Wars is the it's lucrative movie franchise 591 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,920 Speaker 2: of all time. That's a sign that it's working really 592 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 2: well and that you don't need to reinvent the wheel. 593 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 2: Would be my suggestion. 594 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:12,440 Speaker 1: If your home is cluttered with old video, cassettes and 595 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:15,959 Speaker 1: photos stort away someplace. Let's get them digitized before they 596 00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 1: disintegrate so that future generations can enjoy them. They hold 597 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 1: priceless memories, but they won't last forever. So if you 598 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 1: can't watch them or share them, what's the point of 599 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 1: holding on to them. I've got a baby coming soon. 600 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:28,440 Speaker 1: I can't wait to show him our family tree as 601 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 1: he grows up.

They're coming out and trying to prove themselves. 653 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:33,680 Speaker 7: Let it go, Clay, Ah. 654 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,319 Speaker 2: I like the laugh there at the end that did 655 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 2: go megaviral, And I do think there's some element there 656 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 2: potentially of truth that they're responding to that because they 657 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 2: talked about it on CNN, and that echoed, I think 658 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:48,920 Speaker 2: are resonated in Democrat circles. 659 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 1: And it does take a man who is particularly comfortable 660 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,920 Speaker 1: in his masculinity to be all over the internet playing 661 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:58,239 Speaker 1: the flute shirtless, which is right, pretty astonishing, you know, 662 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:00,600 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, that's that's high stuff. 663 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 2: A lot of you did amazing memes of me and 664 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 2: Trump on Air Force one involving me playing the flute. 665 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:12,840 Speaker 2: Gayan in New York City w o R talked about 666 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:15,040 Speaker 2: West Side Story. I didn't realize this. Did you know this? 667 00:35:15,080 --> 00:35:18,239 Speaker 1: Buck ee? Hey, it's gay in Manhattan. 668 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:21,440 Speaker 7: You just trashed a West Side story which lost a 669 00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:25,240 Speaker 7: lot of money. News flash, it starred Rachel Zegler. 670 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:29,839 Speaker 1: Wait, hold on, hold on important point. But we did 671 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 1: not trash West Side Story. I just said that it bombed. 672 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:35,719 Speaker 1: I didn't see the West Side Story. I think the 673 00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:39,319 Speaker 1: West Side Story of musical is great for I'm not 674 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 1: a big musical guy, but you know, point being, I 675 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:45,399 Speaker 1: did not know Rachel Ziegler was in that as well. 676 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:48,680 Speaker 1: That is a pretty remarkable resume she's building up, you know, 677 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 1: she's somebody's niece, like, how is she getting these gigs? 678 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:55,280 Speaker 2: Great question? Great question, And I have no idea. But again, 679 00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:59,719 Speaker 2: this movie is potentially based on the numbers, going to 680 00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 2: lose hundreds of millions of dollars, So I do think 681 00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:07,040 Speaker 2: it's a sort of a cardinal signpost from making four 682 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:11,000 Speaker 2: billion to losing hundreds of millions the snow White story. 683 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:15,359 Speaker 1: What changes the dynamic inside of this Disney is still 684 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:18,560 Speaker 1: a cultural phenomenon in this country. Disney is a holdout here. 685 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:21,800 Speaker 1: If they lose enough money on this, will it change 686 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 1: or what has to change for Disney to stop the 687 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:25,880 Speaker 1: woke garbage? 688 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:29,759 Speaker 2: I think they have to stand up to their employees 689 00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 2: because I think this is a lot of it's coming internal. 690 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:33,239 Speaker 1: Buck. 691 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,640 Speaker 2: You remember when they started bragging about how they needed 692 00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:40,200 Speaker 2: to have trans influence stories and everything else. This is 693 00:36:40,320 --> 00:36:44,680 Speaker 2: internal and the internal Disney employees do not reflect what 694 00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:48,680 Speaker 2: the external marketplace wants, and at some point in time 695 00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:52,360 Speaker 2: that becomes unholy purely from a business perspective, And I 696 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 2: think you're saying that with Snow White
