Speaker 2: I was in Denver this weekend. I have climate acclamation issues.

8
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,200
Speaker 1: In full of transparency. I always like to talk about

9
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:21,759
Speaker 1: what goes into recording this and where we are. This

10
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:24,400

00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:25,320
Speaker 1: the end of a work day.

12
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:28,880

16
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 1: you actually didn't see with me.

17
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:38,560
Speaker 2: I did want to see it, but I again was

18
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 2: going to Denver and I didn't feel like I could

19
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 2: tell you to sit at home and do nothing.

20
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 1: I'll give you my quick analysis now, I don't think

21
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 1: you missed much.

22
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:46,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, you saw that.

23
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:48,159
Speaker 1: Do you think Tom Hanks is kind of on a

24
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 1: downward like in his sixties? Is his late sixties, because

25
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 1: he did a man called Ove and It, Oh, Auto

26
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:59,120
Speaker 1: and Auto, the book you would know the book what

27
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 1: you you like books.

28
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 2: Mis Riad? I am only nine away from my goal

29
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:02,800
Speaker 2: for the air.

30
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:04,479
Speaker 1: Yeah. If it wouldn't have been for that movie, he'd

31
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 1: be like, what is he doing lately? Like he does

32
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 1: a lot of Apple plus movies like that Finch movie

33
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,479
Speaker 1: The Boat that was awful, that was terrible. I don't

34
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 1: remember the name of Rayhound. And then he did the

35
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:20,160
Speaker 1: Elvis movie where he was Harolds Precily's.

36
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:21,479
Speaker 2: Manager, Colonel something.

37
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, Colonel Tom Parker. I know I said that part weird,

38
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 1: But anyway, this movie didn't help him. But I give

39
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 1: you my full thoughts on that. In the trailer park,

40
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: we'll be talking about a horror movie that has an

41
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 1: entirely different perspective because it's from the dark entities perspective

42
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 1: instead of the humans in the house. So, you know,

43
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 1: I love a haunted house movie, like where the House

44
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: is Haunted, but this time you are seeing it from

45
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,279
Speaker 1: the perspective of like the ghost.

46
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 2: Interesting. Are you gonna go see that heretic heritic? I

47
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:49,760
Speaker 2: think it's heretic.

48
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: Is it heretic?

49
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 2: It's heredit? Oh?

50
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,600
Speaker 1: I always thought it was heretic. One of my favorite

51
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 1: episodes of the Simpsons is Homer. I guess it could

52
00:01:56,120 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 1: be the harrod Ding. I say, heretic. There's a heretic?

53
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 2: Can we can we google that? Can we google a pronunciation?

54
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 1: It's with the dude who is a jerk and everything

55
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: that doesn't really narrow and done. He was in Wonka.

56
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 1: Can't I think of his name? The dude who's a

57
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 1: jerk in real life and he plays jerk roles you grant?

58
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, let's see heretic.

59
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 2: Okay, heretic? Heretic?

60
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 1: Was I right about a word?

61
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:25,960
Speaker 2: You were?

62
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 1: Wow?

63
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 2: Heretic? Yeah?

64
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 1: Clip that? Okay.

65
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 2: I'll admit I literally made a note in my phone

66
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 2: one time. I signed it and I said I was

67
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 2: wrong and I signed and dated it.

68
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 1: And there's only been one note of those ever. But

69
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 1: all right, we'll get into this week's episode. Thank you

00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:53,519

75
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll get you. You can get the smaller ones.

76
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 2: It was a terrible, uh fluorescent lighting in my office

77
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 2: and I just looked like, well like I guess because

78
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 2: I'm wearing like cream too. I looked like a potato.

79
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: I always look like a potato.

80
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 2: You do kind of have a mister potato head.

81
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,680
Speaker 1: I do, and I'm brown. I just can't grow a mustache.

82
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 2: I wasn't gonna go that far. You were brown.

83
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:15,919
Speaker 1: Oh that's why I look like a potato.

84
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 2: You just have a potato shaped head.

85
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: Speaking to my head. I could never find hats to fit.

86
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 2: No, your hat is so big.

87
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 1: The thing about like, when I lost weight, I did

88
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,919
Speaker 1: go down like half a hat size, but before that

89
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 1: I was a size eight. A size eight. You can't

90
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 1: go to lids and find a size eight.

91
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 2: Here's the crazy thing is, your head doesn't look big.

92
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,440
Speaker 1: It's deceivingly big. The only time I could find a

93
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: hat at the store a size eight where they were

94
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 1: having like a bargain sale where it's just like these

95
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 1: big cardboard boxes filled with hats that they can and

96
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: I was like, it's all oh no, hey, I was like, oh,

97
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,000
Speaker 1: it's all size eight's in here, so I could pick

98
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 1: from anyone I wanted because they fit nobody else. But

99
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: since I lost weight, I'm now like a seven and

100
00:03:57,920 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 1: three quarters, so like a step down from that.

101
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 2: Your head is so large that I do fear for one.

102
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 1: Whenever we go somewhere and they're selling hats and it's

103
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 1: like one size fits all, I'm like, no it doesn't.

104
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 2: You're like, let me test that.

105
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 1: I'm on that last dot on the thing on the

106
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 1: snap back, and it's like yeah.

107
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 2: Sometimes you're like, hey, you have a cool hat. Can

108
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:17,720
Speaker 2: I borrow it? And I'm like no, it's never gonna

109
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:19,040
Speaker 2: fit my tiny little head again.

110
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 1: But anyway, this has been quite the intro. Here we

111
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 1: told you all we run Hinge and now let's talk movies.

112
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 3: In a world where everyone and their mother has a podcast,

113
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 3: one man stands to infiltrate the ears of listeners like

114
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,400
Speaker 3: never before in a movie podcast, a man with so

115
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:37,720
Speaker 3: much movie knowledge.

116
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 1: He's basically like.

117
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,920
Speaker 3: A walking IMTB with glasses.

118
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 1: From the Nashville Podcast Network. This is movie Mikes, movie podcasts.

119
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,440
Speaker 1: All right, we'll get into our movies in the month.

120
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 1: Now for October. You kick us off. Best movie you

121
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 1: saw in October in your opinion?

122
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 2: So easy? We live in time.

123
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,719
Speaker 1: The sad one, Yeah you were waiting to be sad.

124
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 1: I think I felt a little bit different about this

125
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 1: movie because everybody was saying how sad it is going

126
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,040
Speaker 1: to be. Just based on the trailer, you can tell

127
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: that Florence Pugh is gonna get cancer. You see her,

128
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,280
Speaker 1: they sit down at the doctor's office. She has hair

129
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 1: cut to a scene and she has no hair shaved head.

130
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:17,919
Speaker 1: I love that she committed to the shaved head she

131
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: commits because whenever you didn't see Furriosa with me, right.

132
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:23,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw in my family.

133
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 1: We saw it all the same time, different theaters. The

134
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 1: thing that I knowing me about that movie is Anya

135
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 1: Taylor Joy did not shave her head. She wore like

136
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 1: a shaved head wig and it was so distracting to me.

137
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: And I feel like that also took her out of

138
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: that role, because if you're not fully committing to it,

139
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 1: I don't believe you, And if I don't believe you,

140
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna enjoy the movie. But Florence Pugh straight

141
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 1: up shaved her head for real.

142
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 2: To be fair, I was looking forward to being Sad

143
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,160
Speaker 2: because it did come out on the weekend that is

144
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,359
Speaker 2: the anniversary of when my dad passed away when I

145
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,719
Speaker 2: was younger, So I feel like I needed a cathartic release.

146
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,279
Speaker 2: I actually couldn't cry as much as I needed to.

147
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 2: It was disappointing.

148
00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 1: Did you cry at all?

149
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 2: I teared up, but the tears necessarily like free flow.

150
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 2: The girl across the aisle from us.

151
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, there were people fall in there, and then in

152
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 1: the bathroom.

153
00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 2: She's like, I don't know how everyone else is crying.

154
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:10,599
Speaker 1: And I think it's because I knew that it was

155
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 1: going to be sad, that I had this, maybe this

156
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 1: guard up a little bit that I knew what to expect.

157
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 2: It was also done in such a way that like

158
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:19,920
Speaker 2: it was very just like beautiful.

159
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 1: I love the way this movie was done. And I

160
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: told you afterwards that I almost felt bad even giving

161
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,560
Speaker 1: it a grade because it just felt like one of

162
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,840
Speaker 1: those movies that was essential to life. It didn't feel like, oh,

163
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: here's the beginning of this movie, here's the middle part

164
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,039
Speaker 1: of this movie. It just flowed like life, like you

165
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 1: were getting a peek into these characters, just overwhelmingly sad

166
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,479
Speaker 1: situation of her dealing with cancer, her trying to find

167
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:44,400
Speaker 1: her purpose in life. They have a daughter, and all

168
00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,920
Speaker 1: the things that they wanted to accomplish in life kind

169
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:50,600
Speaker 1: of get put on hold. It is just a complex story,

170
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: taking like what otherwise would just be this really just

171
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 1: small slice of life story and making it feel so

172
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 1: much bigger and larger. And I think that's because you

173
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:00,920
Speaker 1: have Florence Pew and Andrew our Field together who have

174
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 1: amazing chemistry.

175
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,720
Speaker 2: They really do. I'm gonna give it five stars.

176
00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 1: Five stars. Wow, I'd probably I'd probably go on the

177
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 1: four point five out of five because I feel like

178
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 1: it's there's nothing that I would change about the movie.

179
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: I love the way how of course it's called We

180
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: Live in Time. It would hop around in different timelines,

181
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: which I think made it way more enjoyable to watch.

182
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: You would see them from their very beginning of their

183
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 1: relationship towards the end of their relationship, the middle. It

184
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 1: just kind of jumped around, and I think for somebody

185
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 1: with like an add brain, it would be really engaging

186
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 1: to watch because you're not just watching a continuous story.

187
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 2: I think we all have add at this point.

188
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I blame the Internet.

189
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 2: I'm blame the pandemic. Like we just sat at home

190
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 2: on our phones. It was like tiny screen, big screen,

191
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 2: medium screen. Then it just kind of rewired our brains.

192
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 1: It's funny now that even our break from our screen

193
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 1: is a screen because we were like, all right, let's

194
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 1: put down the phones and watch nice, wholesome television on

195
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: a bigger screen. Yeah, that's all we do is just

196
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 1: look at screen. Easy.

197
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 2: But I think it's different because it's not like scrolling,

198
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 2: and your eyes aren't like rapidly seeing a lot.

199
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 1: Of and it's not a constant like here's fifteen seconds,

200
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 1: here's five seconds, here's two seconds exactly. Here's the Costco guys,

201
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:14,280
Speaker 1: here's the Oh no, are you on Costco Guide TikTok no.

202
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 2: But this weekend my friends were doing a rendition of

203
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 2: Costco guys.

204
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 1: I've been in Costco Guys TikTok for probably, I don't know,

205
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 1: four or five six months.

206
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 2: I think the rizzler and the chicken bake ya boom.

207
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 1: And I think them jumping the shark was going on,

208
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 1: Jimmy fallon. I think that's gonna be the end of it.

209
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 2: I do think that was a little excessive because most

210
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:33,480
Speaker 2: people don't know who they are.

211
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 1: That's such a deep internet thing.

212
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,400
Speaker 2: That's like, are they even viral? It's like niche viral.

213
00:08:38,480 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 1: It's very it's like, dude, like me eighteen to thirty

214
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 1: five virality, and it's weird to be on that national

215
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,079
Speaker 1: level platform and see people in that audience have no

216
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 1: idea what is happening. I also think sometimes that's why

217
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 1: SNL isn't as funny to anybody, as funny to most

218
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,640
Speaker 1: people anymore, is because they will literally take a very

219
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: specific meme and do an entire skill about it that

220
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 1: if you didn't see that meme, you're probably not going

221
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:04,960
Speaker 1: to get it. But I think in order to stay relevant,

222
00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:06,440
Speaker 1: they got to do stuff like that. But that is

223
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 1: your best. You recommend it. I recommend it if you need, but.

224
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:11,480
Speaker 2: It is sad.

225
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,199
Speaker 1: It is sad. It does deal with cancer, so if

226
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 1: you're not prepared for that, take.

227
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 2: Those as a trigger warning because it can be really sad.

228
00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 2: I just personally needed a sad movie at the moment.

229
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 1: I think overall, October was high of highs and then

230
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,960
Speaker 1: the lows were really low. So the good was really good,

231
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,960
Speaker 1: but the bad was really bad. There weren't really that

232
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 1: many mid movies in October. But my best is going

233
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 1: to go to Smile too, And I think it's because

234
00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,320
Speaker 1: I had lower expectations going into this one, and I

235
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,079
Speaker 1: felt that Smile was kind of boring. There was forty

236
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 1: minutes of absolutely nothing, and I feel like they took

237
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 1: from that movie made this one so much better by

238
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:49,360
Speaker 1: focusing on one character, amping up the horror, really leading

239
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 1: more into the R rating. And I think it was

240
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 1: because I was thinking, Ah, this is going to be

241
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,640
Speaker 1: the same thing over again, and I'm going to rag

242
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 1: on this movie that I ended up really enjoying it.

243
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 1: And I think also with movies like that that have

244
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:02,960
Speaker 1: a female perspective, it's just a little bit more fresh

245
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:03,560
Speaker 1: of a take.

246
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:05,319
Speaker 2: Right now, and I'm a female perspective.

247
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, and horror movies like that's where you go, like

248
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 1: if you have if you want to see like a strong,

249
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,680
Speaker 1: powerful woman. Now, I feel like the horror genre just

250
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 1: dominates over everything else.

251
00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,439
Speaker 2: So we have to be like chasing away, like running

252
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 2: away from things that are trying to get us.

253
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:22,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you end up killing the thing. All the

254
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 1: dudes in horror movies usually die and it's the woman

255
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 1: who is the final girl at the end who survives.

256
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 2: It's because we've been trained our whole lives to run

257
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 2: away from men. That's because we've been trained our whole

258
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 2: lives carry pepper spray. Look over your shoulder. We've just've

259
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,160
Speaker 2: been running away from men for years.

260
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: When did you get your first thing of pepper spray? College?

261
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,320
Speaker 2: Probably high school and I started driving high school. You

262
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 2: know pe paw? Yeah, pe paw is like clip that

263
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:46,439
Speaker 2: pepper spray to your keychain.

264
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,439
Speaker 1: On that same note, the worst of October, Oh, I

265
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 1: guess I gotta rate Smile. I stand by my four

266
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,360
Speaker 1: out of five rating. I think once it goes to streaming,

267
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,520
Speaker 1: if you didn't see it in theaters, you'll enjoy it

268
00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:59,959
Speaker 1: at home. You're worst for October.

269
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,040
Speaker 2: Joker terrible, hated it.

270
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,240
Speaker 1: I feel like you never even got invested in this

271
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,959
Speaker 1: movie whatsoever. Where I found parts of it that I enjoyed. No,

272
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:11,959
Speaker 1: there was like little pockets of it that I was like, Okay,

273
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 1: now we're getting good. You were just disconnected the entire time.

274
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 2: I didn't even take out my movie candy because it

275
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:22,679
Speaker 2: was not worth wasting my expensive Swedish candy on this film.

276
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 1: Dang, that is the worst. You can't even snack dr No,

277
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 1: it wasn't.

278
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,120
Speaker 2: Worth my snack. I was like, I should save this

279
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 2: for a movie that I'm enjoying. So I just took

280
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:31,959
Speaker 2: out my phone, turned on the brightness and scrolled. I

281
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,560
Speaker 2: don't worry. I'm not an a hole like I turn

282
00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 2: it down and no one can see me.

283
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:36,880
Speaker 1: But I was.

284
00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 2: I don't think my attention was ever kept during this film.

285
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,840
Speaker 1: I'll also say at the regal we go to in

286
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 1: the recliner seats, you really can't see the person's cell phone,

287
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,960
Speaker 1: like behind you or next to you if you turn

288
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 1: down the brightness. And I also put it on like

289
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,319
Speaker 1: the night mode where it changed everything black.

290
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 2: I just keep mine on night mode. I know that's

291
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 2: kind of psychotic of.

292
00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 1: Me all the time.

293
00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 2: I have mine on dark mode.

294
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,040
Speaker 1: You know that I haven't noticed. I didn't know that

295
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 1: you do. I do.

296
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like my notes background is, oh my texts.

297
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:06,719
Speaker 1: I guess I didn't realize that.

298
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like it better. It doesn't hurt my eyes

299
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:09,600
Speaker 2: as much.

300
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 1: I'll do it in the movie because I'll occasionally make

301
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:12,160
Speaker 1: a note.

302
00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 2: On occasionally you're making notes during every film we see.

303
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 1: I make a lot of notes because I want to

304
00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 1: remember it.

305
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 2: Eighteen minutes and thirty two seconds this happened.

306
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 1: I do I time every single I know, right when

307
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 1: we start, I hit the stop. I know because the

308
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 1: time online is never right. It includes the credits, and

309
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,960
Speaker 1: sometimes even that's off. I have to know for sure.

310
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 2: I got bored.

311
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 1: Was it the singing for you or is it the story?

312
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,719
Speaker 1: Or was it everything? Listen or is it Lady Gaga?

313
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:42,679
Speaker 2: Big fan of Lady Gaga. We have to stop making

314
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,439
Speaker 2: every movie she's in a musical. Listen. I love her,

315
00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:48,760
Speaker 2: love her music, love her makeup line, she does great things.

316
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 2: We got to stop just period. It was. It wasn't

317
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 2: even original songs, because I don't mind a musical. I

318
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 2: love Broadway.

319
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 1: It was a jukebox musical.

320
00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 2: I just am kind of also over Walking Phoenix.

321
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 1: Really yeah, because of Napoleon No, I just feel like

322
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 1: it's kind of a douche maybe interesting. I mean, for

323
00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 1: a while he was one of my favorite actors. I

324
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 1: just feel like he hasn't done a movie recently that

325
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 1: I've really enjoyed him in.

326
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,840
Speaker 2: I also hated the First Joker because I was so

327
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 2: physically stressed, and.

328
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: You thought this one was going to be as stressful.

329
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,319
Speaker 2: I think I actually would have rather been that stressed again.

330
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 1: And I wish it would have been that, and I

331
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,200
Speaker 1: told you, like, hey, good thing is it's not gonna

332
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:27,680
Speaker 1: be that dark.

333
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 2: But then we got this I think I would have

334
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 2: preferred darkness yeah over singing.

335
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,200
Speaker 1: Yeah. I didn't mind so much the music. It just

336
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 1: felt like the Joker character was a complete departure from

337
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,800
Speaker 1: what he was in Part one. And I think the director,

338
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:45,840
Speaker 1: Todd Phillips almost hated what he created with the first

339
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:50,280
Speaker 1: one that people were I think he didn't expect people

340
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 1: to react to the Joker the way they did and

341
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 1: kind of idolize them in a way, and I think

342
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 1: that kind of made him upset that he wanted to

343
00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:01,480
Speaker 1: tell people like, Oh, this I've created that's been like

344
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 1: this beacon now for this type of person. I wanted

345
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 1: to completely destroy that and derail this character and make

346
00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 1: them completely unrecognizable. So what we got was not the

347
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:15,560
Speaker 1: Joker that we were expecting from the first one, and

348
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 1: I think that's what I hated most because it didn't

349
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 1: feel like that. It felt like a slap in the

350
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 1: face to me. And then you throw in the music

351
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:23,960
Speaker 1: and singing, and it commits to that so much that

352
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 1: I still think that he made the movie he intended

353
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 1: to make, but it was not what anybody wanted. It

354
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 1: was not I feel like if there was a movie

355
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:32,960
Speaker 1: we were gonna walk out of this year, that probably

356
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 1: would have been close to one.

357
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 2: I would have loved to walk out of that.

358
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 1: Because it was pretty long too. The only thing it

359
00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 1: had going for it was that it looked good. I

360
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 1: thought the cinematography was still great.

361
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:45,880
Speaker 2: If that's enough to redeem a two.

362
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 1: Hours, it's really not. But that was the only thing.

363
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, at least that shot looked cool.

364
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:52,040
Speaker 1: Aside from that, there was very few things to be

365
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:52,600
Speaker 1: excited about.

366
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 2: I honestly should have just gone to see whatever else

367
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,080
Speaker 2: they were screening and then been like, text me when

368
00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 2: you're done.

369
00:14:58,480 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gone.

370
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm just on into another movie.

371
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 1: You can do that. He cares.

372
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:03,680
Speaker 3: I know.

373
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:04,520
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying.

374
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 1: For my worst of October, I'm going with a streaming movie.

375
00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 1: It is Wolf's with George Clooney and Brad Pitt.

376
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 2: I forgot.

377
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 1: We watched it. It was it was bad. It was

378
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 1: so bad, and so I slipped my mind because the

379
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 1: entire I would say thirty to forty minutes of this movie,

380
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 1: of how it starts, was all covered in the two

381
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 1: and a half minute trailer, like the whole like intro,

382
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:32,600
Speaker 1: it took thirty minutes forty minutes to get there and

383
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 1: you already he's getting because it was in that two

384
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:37,720
Speaker 1: and a half minute trailer. So what they are is

385
00:15:37,800 --> 00:15:40,720
Speaker 1: there are people who are called in after either somebody

386
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 1: commits a murder. They they're there to clean up the scene.

387
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:46,000
Speaker 1: So they both arrived to the scene, like hey, how

388
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 1: did you get here? How did you get here? And

389
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 1: then they have to like work together, and it's the

390
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 1: whole like two type A dudes, macho dudes who have

391
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 1: to work together type scenario. Then there's another guy involved.

392
00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 1: It was just so lackluster and I feel like both

393
00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 1: of them, at the level that they are, were just like, Hey,

394
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,720
Speaker 1: let's screw around and make millions by putting out this

395
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 1: crappy movie and crazy that this movie is getting a

396
00:16:08,120 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 1: sequel on Apple What yeah, like before it even came

397
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:15,240
Speaker 1: out that it's like wolfers, wolfies.

398
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 2: Wolf Wolves, but wolfs Now we're going wolves.

399
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 1: And it's weird because they even pulled it from theaters.

400
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:25,440
Speaker 1: It was supposed to come out in theaters.

401
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:27,400
Speaker 2: We saw the trailer like multiple times and they're like,

402
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 2: that doesn't look.

403
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,720
Speaker 1: Bad coming those theaters in October. And then they were

404
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,960
Speaker 1: like testing it out and realize people aren't really liking this,

405
00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 1: let's put it straight to streaming. And I feel like

406
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,000
Speaker 1: Apple just isn't quite there when it comes to their

407
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,040
Speaker 1: original movies, and this was not a step in a

408
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 1: good direction. Ones I would say, ye, handful Cherry was good.

409
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 2: Justin timber like and you know, Palmer Palmer was good.

410
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 2: If it's one no, Wolf's this one word that doesn't.

411
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:52,840
Speaker 1: Hold Joshi real smooth was good.

412
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 2: Oh that was so good.

413
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:54,960
Speaker 1: Killers are the Flower Moon?

414
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, that's Apple. But theaters thinking.

415
00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,320
Speaker 1: Like straight Apple, I mean that's pretty much it. Then

416
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:02,960
Speaker 1: you have all those Tom Hanks movies that we were

417
00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,879
Speaker 1: talking about earlier that were very good. You have a

418
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: lot of like random action comedy like the Mark Wahlberg

419
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 1: family movie, the one with Chris Sevens and Onto the Ottomus.

420
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 1: It's just like, what what even is that they have

421
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:18,520
Speaker 1: no identity whatsoever. They're just like, hey, let's hire a

422
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:21,199
Speaker 1: list actors, give them a lot of money, have a

423
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 1: really crappy script and random director and throw it on

424
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,920
Speaker 1: the service. Yeah, I'd rather probably watch a TV show

425
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:27,199
Speaker 1: they have.

426
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 2: Okay, we really need to get into Slow Horses. I've

427
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 2: been seeing it.

428
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 1: I've seen so much about that show.

429
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 2: I saw it's a book. I saw it at the airport,

430
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 2: so we really got to get into that one.

431
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,680
Speaker 1: And Gary Oldman is a great actor, like character actor,

432
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 1: one of the best. While we're on that though about gangs,

433
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 1: before we get to our TV picks, the other movies

434
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,760
Speaker 1: we saw this month mentioned Joker two. I gave that

435
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:49,280
Speaker 1: one to two out of five. Wolves. I gave it

436
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:51,760
Speaker 1: one point five out of five. It's What's Inside was

437
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 1: surprisingly a good Netflix original horror movie, which is why

438
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:56,439
Speaker 1: you didn't watch it with me.

439
00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 2: Don't remember that one.

440
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 1: It's where they play this game and they all switch bodies.

441
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 1: Would you would you play that game? Somebody bought a contraption,

442
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:04,960
Speaker 1: was like, all right, you put these things on and

443
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:07,399
Speaker 1: you're gonna change bodies with somebody in the room, and

444
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 1: then you have to figure out who you who got

445
00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 1: your body? Like, wouldn't it be weird to see you

446
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 1: outside of you? Like you see yourself walk by and

447
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 1: you're like, that's me.

448
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:17,560
Speaker 2: That would be weird. I feel like people with a

449
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:18,920
Speaker 2: twins see that though.

450
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 1: A good point twins. It's Witchcraft Smile two four out

451
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,119
Speaker 1: of five. We Live in Time I give it a

452
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 1: four point five out of five. I also watch Brothers

453
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:35,119
Speaker 1: on Amazon, which was okay, I forgot his name. Brothers

454
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:38,080
Speaker 1: on Amazon was not good. Game of Thrones, guy, I

455
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 1: can remember Peter Dinklish and Josh Brolin is who I

456
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,600
Speaker 1: was trying to remember. But they played brothers.

457
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:46,920
Speaker 2: Who Oh, they played brothers in a movie aptly titled.

458
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 1: Brothers Brothers and they're like criminals and it's one of them.

459
00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 1: One of them goes to prison. Oh my bead really

460
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 1: looked a close to each other. One of them goes

461
00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 1: to prison for committing a crime. One of them stays out,

462
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 1: cleans his life up. Other one gets out and they

463
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 1: go back to a life of crime. It kind of

464
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:07,000
Speaker 1: felt like a two thousands bad comedy. Did you ever

465
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 1: watch Funny? No? Not really. Did you ever watch My

466
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 1: Name is Earl?

467
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:15,639
Speaker 2: You rewatched that? Yeah? Last year? No? I hate that show.

468
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:18,719
Speaker 2: I would rather you watch The Simpsons, I think than

469
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:19,360
Speaker 2: My Name is Earl.

470
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 1: I love My Name is Earl. And it felt like

471
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 1: it was doing on my Name is Earl impression the

472
00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,680
Speaker 1: entire time, and I was like, man, I'm just gonna

473
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 1: go watch My Name is Earl. Randy also watched Women

474
00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,160
Speaker 1: at the Hour on Netflix. I was close to getting

475
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:30,920
Speaker 1: my best of the month.

476
00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 2: So good, that's my runner up.

477
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,159
Speaker 1: And that was when I had you had more knowledge

478
00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:37,640
Speaker 1: about going into it than I did. I just knew

479
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:40,679
Speaker 1: it was Anna Kendrick's debut as a director, and I

480
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:41,240
Speaker 1: was like, I'm in.

481
00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 2: And then It's a freaky story.

482
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,760
Speaker 1: Started immediately and I was like, this is great. So

483
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:50,440
Speaker 1: Netflix rarely has great movies these days. That's not true,

484
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:52,040
Speaker 1: hip Man, I said rarely.

485
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,359
Speaker 2: It also wasn't a Netflix original that I required it.

486
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:57,440
Speaker 1: That is a good point, and I think most people

487
00:19:57,480 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 1: can't make that distinct distinction. Is there are Netflix originals

488
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:06,400
Speaker 1: that they fund and it's like their studio Netflix Banner.

489
00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 2: And Man was one of those, And.

490
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,400
Speaker 1: Then there are some that they acquire the rights where

491
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 1: somebody else has made it and they're like, we want

492
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:14,720
Speaker 1: to buy the rights to this and put it on Netflix.

493
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 1: That is also what happened with It's What's Inside that

494
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:19,760
Speaker 1: I mentioned earlier. And then there are other movies that

495
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,720
Speaker 1: they just put on their service that they buy, like

496
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,720
Speaker 1: the rights to, but either they came out initially in

497
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 1: theaters and another studio owns them and they're just like, Okay,

498
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 1: we want to have this on our service for like

499
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:33,639
Speaker 1: four months and it'd be on Netflix. Then later it

500
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,120
Speaker 1: goes to Hulu. And I think some people can't even

501
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 1: distinguish that of say like whenever Joker goes on, it

502
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:42,639
Speaker 1: usually goes on to Max, but say it eventually makes

503
00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 1: its way to Netflix, people just be be like, oh,

504
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 1: Joker Too was a Netflix movie. So I think it

505
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 1: doesn't really matter at the end of the day. But

506
00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 1: when it comes to like original Netflix.

507
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:54,200
Speaker 2: Netflix originals, the Christmas ones are coming out with which

508
00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,680
Speaker 2: we will be watching, you will be watching and reviewing. Yeah,

509
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,879
Speaker 2: there's one with Chad mclmurray that looks so bad.

510
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:02,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't believe it's still working so.

511
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,920
Speaker 2: Bad, But they're the one with Lindsay Lohan actually looks

512
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:06,400
Speaker 2: pretty good.

513
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,000
Speaker 1: Lindsay Lohan's back, Yeah.

514
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 2: It looks cute. But also I will say Anna Kendrick

515
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:14,439
Speaker 2: donated all the money she made from Netflix acquiring that

516
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:20,200
Speaker 2: movie to several like Domestic Violence, Shelters to Rain, which

517
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 2: I thought was really cool, and I saw a clip

518
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:23,320
Speaker 2: of her and she was like, I just felt really gross,

519
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:25,879
Speaker 2: like profiting off this movie because she was like, you

520
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,719
Speaker 2: don't make any money making the movie, and she's like,

521
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 2: we made money when it was acquired and she was like,

522
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,200
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, I'm making a profit and I

523
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 2: feel gross making a profit from this, which I thought

524
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 2: was really cool that she donated it.

525
00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:38,560
Speaker 1: Which is the point I made when reading that movie

526
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,160
Speaker 1: last week that I always have this weird thing about

527
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 1: true crime stuff because it feels like icky to get

528
00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 1: into and like to take it in. Is entertainment when

529
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,719
Speaker 1: it's like real people, and well, especially when like the

530
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: families that the people were still alive.

531
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,520
Speaker 2: But it was interesting when it's a story that you

532
00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 2: like didn't know.

533
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:56,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, like you learn stuff and you're like, man, it sucks.

534
00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 2: Yeah.

535
00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:00,240
Speaker 1: The other one that almost made my worst of the

536
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 1: month was Venom three. Oh my god, I forgot you

537
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 1: saw that you were gonna put that one as your

538
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:06,880
Speaker 1: worst over Joker. I feel like you had a worst

539
00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,119
Speaker 1: time in that one because it just felt more like

540
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:10,360
Speaker 1: a mockery of everything.

541
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:12,640
Speaker 2: I actually think I enjoyed that more than Joker because

542
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 2: it was shorter.

543
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 1: Because eh, and it's a little bit more turned your

544
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:16,959
Speaker 1: brain off. We didn't expect anything from it.

545
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:18,760
Speaker 2: I expected nothing. I was trying to stay up till

546
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 2: midnight to pick a friend up from the airport, so

547
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,640
Speaker 2: I was like honestly, I'm here somewhere outside of the house.

548
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 2: I can't fall asleep. That was really but I did

549
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 2: enjoy Venom two, so I kind of expected to like

550
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:28,640
Speaker 2: it a little bit more.

551
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:30,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like one, and two and three was just

552
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:31,920
Speaker 1: like it gave up.

553
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,560
Speaker 2: I also forgot weird. The only movies I remember we

554
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:36,400
Speaker 2: saw this month were Joker, We Live in Time.

555
00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 1: And Woman of the Hour your TV show.

556
00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 2: I just realized I don't have one.

557
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 1: I don't really. Yeah, I don't think we've really been

558
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:43,919
Speaker 1: finishing shows right now.

559
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,480
Speaker 2: The Housewives of Salt Lake City is great this season, Like.

560
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,199
Speaker 1: We're watching I'm Loving Penguin, but we're not done with

561
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,000
Speaker 1: it yet. There's one episode that just came out that

562
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 1: we haven't seen, that's the finale, and then aside from that,

563
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,119
Speaker 1: we're kind of watching only Murders. We haven't quite finished

564
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 1: that yet. Episodes left, and the show I'm kind of

565
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 1: giving up on his Agatha all along. Like I even

566
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:07,040
Speaker 1: watched an episode without you after you dipped out, and

567
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,000
Speaker 1: there's just nothing, and you were like, I'm dipping out.

568
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,200
Speaker 1: There's just nothing that's making me gravitate towards that story.

569
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 1: Even though some people are loving it, saying it's one

570
00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:16,960
Speaker 1: of the best Marvel Original shows. I just can't get

571
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 1: into it. There's just nothing there.

572
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 2: I've also been ditching you to watch The Housewives lately.

573
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:24,640
Speaker 2: There's three franchises Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. There's more. There's one

574
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:27,119
Speaker 2: on Sunday. But I'm Tuesday night is New York, Wednesday

575
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,560
Speaker 2: night is Salt Lake, Thursday's Orange County. Orange County did

576
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,439
Speaker 2: just wrap up. Then Beverly Hills starts next month. I

577
00:23:32,440 --> 00:23:34,200
Speaker 2: love the Housewives. I'm just kind of been ditching you

578
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:35,879
Speaker 2: and I get in bed and I light a candle

579
00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 2: in watch house.

580
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,199
Speaker 1: That's a lot of franchise. I couldn't keep up with.

581
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,120
Speaker 2: That, but yeah, Salt Lake is my best one.

582
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:40,960
Speaker 1: What about your book?

583
00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:43,680
Speaker 2: The Third Gilmore Girl by Kelly Bishop.

584
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 1: Oh, they're hopping back into TV Gilmore Girl.

585
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:50,920
Speaker 2: No. So she played Emily Gilmour, the Grandma, and and

586
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,280
Speaker 2: it was my book club book of the Month. And

587
00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,920
Speaker 2: I'm not only an audiobook person simply because I already

588
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,400
Speaker 2: have too many podcasts to listen to. And when I read,

589
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:01,000
Speaker 2: I like silence, it's kind of my my brain off.

590
00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,160
Speaker 2: But she narrates it and reads it, and I love

591
00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:07,640
Speaker 2: Kelly Bishop. She's a super interesting life story, like her

592
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 2: whole career before you More girls. It's really good. It

593
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 2: is free if you have Spotify Premium, you like fifteen

594
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,280
Speaker 2: hours of audiobook a month, and so if there's ever

595
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 2: an audiobook on Spotify and you have a premium account,

596
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:20,920
Speaker 2: you can listen to it for free. So I listened

597
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 2: to it there.

598
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,000
Speaker 1: I've always been meeting to listen to an audiobook because

599
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,160
Speaker 1: I am notorious for not finishing books that you are.

600
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,440
Speaker 1: But I feel like I'm good at listening to podcasts

601
00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:31,719
Speaker 1: all the way through. I feel like if I had

602
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 1: an audiobook, I could probably at least get through something

603
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:36,240
Speaker 1: or maybe start reading it. And if I'm going to

604
00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:38,720
Speaker 1: give up on it, off to the audiobook. Yeah, I'm

605
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 1: not really reading anything right now. I've been trying to

606
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 1: find here's my nerd out moment of the week, that

607
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,720
Speaker 1: is this entire podcast. Anyway, I've been trying to find

608
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:50,120
Speaker 1: an issue of Absolute Batman and it's been sold out

609
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:51,960
Speaker 1: for months, Like a month can.

610
00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:53,359
Speaker 2: Be nerdier than what you bought at Costco.

611
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 1: This weekend, Oh, I got an adult well not even

612
00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,120
Speaker 1: adult snuggie. I got a spider Man snuggy that's meant

613
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 1: for kids, but since the oversized, if it's me.

614
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,399
Speaker 2: I showed it to people this weekend that I was

615
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 2: with and someone said, we're Halloween costumes on sale and

616
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:12,160
Speaker 2: I was like, no, he's just that's just what he likes.

617
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 2: And then you found a dragon Ball shirt I.

618
00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,399
Speaker 1: Did Old Navy I leave for a week and I

619
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:17,560
Speaker 1: also got this at Old Navy.

620
00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:20,680
Speaker 2: I left for a weekend, and you nerd it out hard.

621
00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 1: I went to Costco and I had just seen on

622
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:25,959
Speaker 1: TikTok that they were selling Spider Man snuggies and I

623
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,119
Speaker 1: was like, that looks amazing and it's only twenty dollars.

624
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,000
Speaker 1: So I went to Costco. First thing I went to

625
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 1: grab was the Spider Man snuggie and then I got home.

626
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:34,680
Speaker 1: I put it on. The arms are a little tight

627
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 1: because it is meant for a child.

628
00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 2: I actually didn't know that I could have fleff that part.

629
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 1: But other than that, if fit's good, it's warm, it's

630
00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 1: gonna be my hanging out on the couch like you're

631
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 1: coming in the comfort blanket. While watching the Cowboys suck you.

632
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 2: Were like, it was only twenty dollars something I don't care.

633
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 2: Mainly because I had just placed the Sephora sale order.

634
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 1: I twenty bucks ave bad to keep me warm.

635
00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,840
Speaker 2: That's not what I spent at Sepaus. You can go

636
00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 2: get quite a few snuggies.

637
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 1: The adult one. I think we're twenty bucks as well,

638
00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:03,720
Speaker 1: but they were so boring. Why do you think it's

639
00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:05,200
Speaker 1: so boring when you become an adult?

640
00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 2: It's true.

641
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 1: It was like a standard gray one and a blue one,

642
00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,199
Speaker 1: Like I want the Spider Man one, I want the

643
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:11,439
Speaker 1: logo in my back, I want.

644
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,639
Speaker 2: The Honestly, adults need more fun. Yeah, because it's like

645
00:26:14,680 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 2: you grow up and it's just like a harsh reality.

646
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 2: You got bills to pay, You gotta work at least

647
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:20,880
Speaker 2: forty hours a week.

648
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,440
Speaker 1: Like this whole room is me regressing to dealing with

649
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,119
Speaker 1: like adult life. Like I just want to go in

650
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,639
Speaker 1: here and enjoy things and see things that remind me

651
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:32,880
Speaker 1: of like just comforting times. And it doesn't hurt anybody exactly,

652
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:36,560
Speaker 1: and it's bright and colorful, and I'll just tell myself that.

653
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:38,639
Speaker 2: I love that you found nerdy things that you enjoy.

654
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 2: I think it's great. Whatever brings you joy and makes

655
00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 2: you happy.

656
00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:46,800
Speaker 1: Besides me, as long as they're plastic and or hanging

657
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:49,640
Speaker 1: on the wall. We're all good here, all right? Anything

658
00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 1: else you want to say before we go?

659
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,920
Speaker 2: I think I thought of something, but I forgot. Okay,

660
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,879
Speaker 2: to be fair, I was in the office today, so

661
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:56,600
Speaker 2: I am tired.

662
00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 1: I am also tired. I just had a coffee at

663
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:00,240
Speaker 1: about five.

664
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 2: I had a lot of caffeine today. There's a Starbucks

665
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 2: in the lobby. I hit that up every Tuesday morning

666
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:07,840
Speaker 2: before I even go to my office. I was like

667
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:12,440
Speaker 2: park mobile order and they had Christmas cups for the

668
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,119
Speaker 2: tall and the grandees, and I was like, you know what,

669
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 2: like a Christmas cup? I mean, Christmas Cup's really gonna

670
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 2: cheer me up. They hand me my Vini plain ass

671
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,000
Speaker 2: white cup. You can cut that out if you need to.

672
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 2: I did just curse.

673
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:25,160
Speaker 1: It's ever. It's like the adult situation, like everything has

674
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:26,640
Speaker 1: to be boring exactly.

675
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:28,879
Speaker 2: I really just wanted some joy. Should we go put

676
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:29,719
Speaker 2: the Christmas tree up?

677
00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 1: I think it's too early. I feel like it's too early.

678
00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:34,320
Speaker 2: We put up on November first last year.

679
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:36,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know it was too early. I'm in that

680
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 1: weird mode of like I'm not ready for it yet.

681
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:40,200
Speaker 2: You can what about next week?

682
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 1: Next week is good? This week still feels a little

683
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:43,120
Speaker 1: bit too early.

684
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 2: It's so hot.

685
00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:46,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's it. It's still warm here. I

686
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 1: need a little bit of coal, like the leaves have fallen.

687
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:50,959
Speaker 2: It's like forty in Denver this week and it was freezing.

688
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 1: But I need some cooler weather. And I think next

689
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,400
Speaker 1: week feels a little bit closer to Thanksgiving. And I'm

690
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 1: good with.

691
00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:57,440
Speaker 2: It, okay, Or I'll just do it one day while

692
00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 2: you're at work.

693
00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 1: There you go, all right, we'll come back and boiler

694
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:05,879
Speaker 1: free review of Here, Let's get into it now. A

695
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:10,240
Speaker 1: spoiler free movie review of Here. What a boring title,

696
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:14,800
Speaker 1: but it stars Tom Hanks, Robin Wright aka Forest Gump,

697
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:18,520
Speaker 1: and Jenny, directed by Robert Zemeckis, who is the original

698
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:22,399
Speaker 1: director of Forrest Gump. Although him and Tom Hanks have

699
00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:24,879
Speaker 1: worked together a lot over the years, some good movies,

700
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,480
Speaker 1: some not so good movies, it is the first time

701
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,639
Speaker 1: all three of them have been back together in thirty years.

702
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 1: So I would like to say there was some hype

703
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,320
Speaker 1: around that idea of like, oh, it's a Forest Gump reunion.

704
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,360
Speaker 1: There really wasn't much hype going into this movie. The

705
00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 1: biggest thing about it is that the entire movie takes

706
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 1: place in one shot. It all is events that happen

707
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 1: over one hundred years to different people that inhabit this

708
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:54,000
Speaker 1: one little piece of land. It goes from way back

709
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:58,440
Speaker 1: in the dinosaur times to like Revolution times two in

710
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 1: between all the way through the sixties, seventies until today.

711
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 1: It is all this one shot little piece of land,

712
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 1: all of the different changes that it goes through, the

713
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 1: house that goes up, the different people that live in

714
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:15,920
Speaker 1: the house, and really there is no overarching plot. It

715
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 1: is just the story about life all these people, primarily

716
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:24,400
Speaker 1: focusing on Tom Hanks's character and Robin Wright's character. You

717
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,920
Speaker 1: learn about Tom Hanks from before he was born. You

718
00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:30,480
Speaker 1: get the story of his parents, You get the story

719
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 1: of how him and Robin Wright's character meet and how

720
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:37,680
Speaker 1: their entire life unfolds in this one house, in this

721
00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:40,440
Speaker 1: one living room. So how do they do that? I

722
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 1: am somebody who enjoys a movie that takes place entirely

723
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 1: in one location. There've been movies recently, like The Guilty.

724
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 1: There's a lot of movies that just take place in

725
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,320
Speaker 1: one location. You can make it work, you can make

726
00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 1: it entertaining. The different thing about this one is It's

727
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 1: just one shot. It is, essentially, although I bet they

728
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 1: use a lot of green screen, and I kind of

729
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:03,200
Speaker 1: tell how they did this, but essentially, to the viewer,

730
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 1: it is one shot camera on a tripod, and that

731
00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:09,360
Speaker 1: tripod never ever moves. So not only is it just

732
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,520
Speaker 1: one location, it is just one shot, and it really

733
00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 1: unfolds more like a play. If you go see a

734
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:17,880
Speaker 1: play in the theater, usually just get one set. Maybe

735
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 1: they move things around, but you have one vantage point

736
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,560
Speaker 1: throughout that entire play. You can make it entertaining. And

737
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,480
Speaker 1: that is the one novel thing about this movie. But

738
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 1: it was so painfully average that I found myself getting

739
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 1: bored throughout this movie. And it's not that I'm opposed

740
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:35,720
Speaker 1: to movie. That's just a slice of life movie where

741
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 1: there's no big outcome, there's no big conflict. You can

742
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:42,520
Speaker 1: make a good slice of life movie really hard to

743
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:45,240
Speaker 1: do in one location and just one shot. But there

744
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 1: were a lot of factors that really kept me from

745
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 1: feeling any emotion, starting from the very beginning, where it

746
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,840
Speaker 1: is Tom Hanks much older, even older than he is now,

747
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,720
Speaker 1: within his sixties now, and it's him going back to

748
00:30:56,800 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 1: this house setting up a couple chairs, and reliving everything

749
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 1: in his head, and then for like the next thirty

750
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 1: almost forty minutes, you don't see Tom Hanks again. And

751
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 1: I think it's because this movie was trying to be

752
00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:12,520
Speaker 1: a little bit more prolific than it actually was. If

753
00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 1: it would have just focused on his family's life, I

754
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 1: think it would have been a much better movie. But

755
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:21,280
Speaker 1: trying to weave in stuff from back in the dinosaur age,

756
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:25,880
Speaker 1: back before this country was America, even going into the

757
00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,880
Speaker 1: future and focusing on things in the pandemic and twenty

758
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,720
Speaker 1: twenty life, it just felt like it was trying to

759
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 1: say a lot of things that really had no way

760
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 1: to it. It was just throwing things in there for

761
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 1: no apparent reason. There were backstories to characters that inhabited

762
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:44,320
Speaker 1: this place that never really went anywhere, and you didn't

763
00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:47,840
Speaker 1: really take away, as the viewer, any kind of emotional impact.

764
00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,120
Speaker 1: It just kind of felt like filler, And I think

765
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:53,440
Speaker 1: Roberts Imcas probably did that because it's like, Okay, maybe

766
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 1: there isn't enough story to just tell Tom Hanks and

767
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:59,080
Speaker 1: his family story. Let's throw in some other stuff that

768
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 1: I kind of have on the back burner here, shove

769
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,800
Speaker 1: it down. The audience's faces and really cram it in

770
00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 1: those first thirty and forty minutes where you're wondering, when

771
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,520
Speaker 1: is Tom Hanks gonna show up? When are you gonna

772
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:12,160
Speaker 1: get to the meat of this story, And by the

773
00:32:12,200 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 1: time it really ramps up and you see all that unfold,

774
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:17,680
Speaker 1: you're kind of already bored by it. You're not really

775
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 1: invested in it because it hasn't really won you over.

776
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 1: And it's not that sad things don't happen in this movie.

777
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 1: There are, but I think it's because the method of storytelling. Also,

778
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 1: the de aging stuff isn't quite there yet. There are

779
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,280
Speaker 1: a lot of things that keep you from feeling anything,

780
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 1: and whenever it does really try to go out on

781
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,080
Speaker 1: that emotional note, by the end of it, you're just

782
00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 1: kind of over it. I think towards the back half

783
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 1: of the movie, I did start to think, Okay, there

784
00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:47,600
Speaker 1: was actually a little something here. I started to feel something,

785
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 1: and then the movie was over. And I think it

786
00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 1: does go back to the d aging technology. Seeing Tom

787
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,239
Speaker 1: Hanks and Robin Wright as teenagers, it felt like I

788
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:58,959
Speaker 1: was watching video game characters act with one another, and

789
00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:03,240
Speaker 1: I think that really keeps you from really feeling anything

790
00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:05,720
Speaker 1: because it doesn't even feel like they are on screen

791
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 1: and in a world right now where we're talking about,

792
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:11,960
Speaker 1: you know, AI replacing actors. It just felt too much

793
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 1: AI to meet. And I'm not opposed to the use

794
00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:17,240
Speaker 1: of AI to make our lives easier. I embrace it.

795
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,560
Speaker 1: I love it. I want to learn about it. I

796
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:22,280
Speaker 1: think I do have an issue, however, whenever you start

797
00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:25,880
Speaker 1: using AI in art, because say an actor passes away

798
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:29,200
Speaker 1: and before they die, they say, hey, I want to

799
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 1: go in record all these things, motion capture my face,

800
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:36,200
Speaker 1: so when I die, to my estate you can license out, Hey,

801
00:33:36,880 --> 00:33:39,640
Speaker 1: put me in a movie, and my estate gets paid.

802
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,360
Speaker 1: You set up your family for a life. Seems nice

803
00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 1: As an actor, if you could have that happen, I

804
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 1: feel like there's only a handful of actors who could

805
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:49,720
Speaker 1: do that, that people would actually even watch a movie

806
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 1: with their AI presence after they pass away. But I

807
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 1: think you start to get into some murky area. And

808
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 1: I know some studios are probably already doing that without

809
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:00,959
Speaker 1: us even realizing it. With reshoots, all right, we need

810
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:02,560
Speaker 1: to have somebody back. We can't get him back on

811
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 1: the lot. Let's AI. They've done it before. But I

812
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:09,080
Speaker 1: think because of that, I found myself feeling very disconnected

813
00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 1: from any of their performances. It just felt very artificial

814
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 1: to me and very cold and out of anybody's performance.

815
00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:19,759
Speaker 1: I really became more invested in Paul Bettany's character, who

816
00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:23,759
Speaker 1: plays Tom Hanks's dad, because he wasn't using any AI

817
00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,399
Speaker 1: and I felt like he had the best story out

818
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:30,879
Speaker 1: of anybody in here. Tom Hanks's character arc felt very

819
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:33,719
Speaker 1: cliche to me, and I didn't really buy into him

820
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:36,160
Speaker 1: and Robin Wright's love story in this movie. The only

821
00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:38,240
Speaker 1: real lesson that I kind of took from this movie

822
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:42,440
Speaker 1: that I felt anything towards was Tom Hanks's character was

823
00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,839
Speaker 1: very hesitant about things. He was worried about things like

824
00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:50,640
Speaker 1: taxes that kept him from living life. Anytime his wife

825
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:52,279
Speaker 1: brought up, hey, we should get our own house. We

826
00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:53,680
Speaker 1: should get out of here and not live with your

827
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,920
Speaker 1: parents anymore, he was always worried about how they were

828
00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:00,320
Speaker 1: going to pay for it. He was worried about making money.

829
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:02,440
Speaker 1: In his early years, he wanted to be an artist.

830
00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:03,960
Speaker 1: He had to give that up in order to get

831
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 1: a more stable job, and it kind of kept going

832
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:09,600
Speaker 1: back to that. Of all the things his character went through,

833
00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:11,799
Speaker 1: I just kind of left thinking, oh, there's never really

834
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:14,360
Speaker 1: a good time to do anything. And I think it

835
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:16,680
Speaker 1: made me look into my life right now. Me and

836
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:19,200
Speaker 1: Kelsey have always talked about having kids. We will have

837
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:22,319
Speaker 1: kids eventually, but there's always that decision to be made,

838
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,720
Speaker 1: and when you talk to other people who have had kids,

839
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:27,640
Speaker 1: they tell you the same thing. There's never a right time.

840
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 1: And I think for me, being over analytical trying to

841
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 1: be responsible with finances, I always think there's gonna be

842
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,920
Speaker 1: a right time on the books on paper where Kelsey

843
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:39,400
Speaker 1: and I will be set up and this is the

844
00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:42,200
Speaker 1: perfect time to have kids. But I know there's not

845
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,040
Speaker 1: gonna be the perfect time, and all the things I

846
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:46,560
Speaker 1: think about are the reasons not to have kids because

847
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 1: it isn't the good time. I kind of saw myself

848
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,640
Speaker 1: a little bit in this character, although he goes way extreme,

849
00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:54,319
Speaker 1: way way way extreme, but it did make me think

850
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,480
Speaker 1: about that a little bit of how anything in life

851
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,040
Speaker 1: that is worth having you're gonna have to work for it,

852
00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:02,240
Speaker 1: and it's gonna make you uncomfortable if you aren't doing

853
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:04,680
Speaker 1: things that make you uncomfortable and think, oh, I don't

854
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:06,799
Speaker 1: know if I should be doing this. This isn't the

855
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:09,080
Speaker 1: safe thing to do. If you aren't doing those things

856
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:11,840
Speaker 1: in life, you're not going to be living life. Anything

857
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 1: I've had that is worthy of me having, I've had

858
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,359
Speaker 1: to work for, and I've had to feel uncomfortable for,

859
00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:21,000
Speaker 1: and I've had to go in with a lot of uncertainty, thinking, Man,

860
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:24,520
Speaker 1: if this fails, what am I gonna do? And sometimes

861
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:26,759
Speaker 1: I have failed a lot of times. I've failed so

862
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:29,399
Speaker 1: many jobs I've missed out on before I got the job.

863
00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:31,719
Speaker 1: I have now so many jobs. You know how many

864
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:35,600
Speaker 1: relationships I didn't have until I have the one I

865
00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:37,600
Speaker 1: have now that is the one that was meant for me.

866
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 1: It's just that is the nature of life. But if

867
00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:44,080
Speaker 1: I kept myself from even trying those things, I'd be

868
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:48,000
Speaker 1: in a terrible position. So the overall message that I

869
00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:51,080
Speaker 1: took away from it is there's never the right time,

870
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:53,839
Speaker 1: and you can't keep putting things off until the right

871
00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:56,600
Speaker 1: time is otherwise life is going to go right before

872
00:36:56,640 --> 00:36:59,000
Speaker 1: your eyes and you're going to regret the things that

873
00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:02,080
Speaker 1: you didn't do more than the things that you did do.

874
00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:04,279
Speaker 1: And that is exactly what I look back on right

875
00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,439
Speaker 1: now and think, out of all the decisions I made

876
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:10,120
Speaker 1: in my life, if I ever regretted anything. It was

877
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,920
Speaker 1: not doing something, not going to a party, not going

878
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:16,240
Speaker 1: to an event, not going out, not hanging out with friends,

879
00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:19,400
Speaker 1: not hanging out with family. I never regret a moment

880
00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:22,400
Speaker 1: that I actually made a decision to go out and

881
00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:24,920
Speaker 1: do things. Sometimes I think, ah, well that was kind

882
00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:26,440
Speaker 1: of a waste of time, but I'm still glad I

883
00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:28,319
Speaker 1: did it. I have a story. But if I look

884
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 1: back on all my biggest regrets, it is the things

885
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:34,200
Speaker 1: that I didn't do. Man, maybe this movie did teach

886
00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:35,879
Speaker 1: me a little more than I thought, but I would

887
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:37,560
Speaker 1: have learned that anyway. I didn't need to watch an

888
00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:40,560
Speaker 1: hour and forty plus minute movie to realize that I

889
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:43,560
Speaker 1: already knew that. In your thirties, you already know that,

890
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,680
Speaker 1: and you could tell your teenage or twenty year old

891
00:37:46,680 --> 00:37:49,440
Speaker 1: self that without having seen this movie. So what I

892
00:37:49,480 --> 00:37:53,360
Speaker 1: think happened here is the movie really sold its sizzle

893
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:55,799
Speaker 1: more than anything, because I was just more curious of

894
00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:57,759
Speaker 1: how are they even going to make this work? And

895
00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,600
Speaker 1: if you take that element out of this movie, it

896
00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:04,239
Speaker 1: is such just an average movie that really has no sparkle,

897
00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:08,080
Speaker 1: that really has no emotional raw to it, especially when

898
00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:11,040
Speaker 1: it has one of the best American actors of all time,

899
00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:15,040
Speaker 1: reuniting with Robin Wright and reuniting with Roberts a mechis

900
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:18,000
Speaker 1: you just think there was gonna be something more. And

901
00:38:18,080 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 1: if you look at the amount of money this movie

902
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:23,960
Speaker 1: made on its opening weekend. It's opening weekend five million

903
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:28,640
Speaker 1: dollars on over two thousand screens with Tom Hanks attached

904
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:32,120
Speaker 1: to it, that is wild. It got beat out by

905
00:38:32,239 --> 00:38:35,319
Speaker 1: Venom on its second week in its opening week, which

906
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:37,840
Speaker 1: proves to you there was no real hype around this movie.

907
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:39,840
Speaker 1: I do think there is an audience for it, however,

908
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:44,080
Speaker 1: because surprisingly the theater I went to was a pack showing.

909
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:46,560
Speaker 1: I got like the very last seat on the end row.

910
00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:48,239
Speaker 1: It was one of those times where I walk into

911
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:50,480
Speaker 1: the theater and somebody thinks I'm not gonna take that

912
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:52,160
Speaker 1: seat because I know how to time it out where

913
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:54,480
Speaker 1: I don't have to watch the previews. I go in

914
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:56,719
Speaker 1: right as they're ending so I can sit in my

915
00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:59,319
Speaker 1: seat and then the opening credits role and I can

916
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:02,439
Speaker 1: enjoy the movie. Somebody had all their stuff in my seat.

917
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:05,240
Speaker 1: I'm like, Ah, that's my seat. I reserve that seat.

918
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:07,839
Speaker 1: Shout out the Regal Unlimited. You though they don't pay

919
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:10,800
Speaker 1: me to say that, but the entire theater was full.

920
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 1: I did notice it was an older audience. I'd say

921
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:16,719
Speaker 1: the average age in the theater was probably fifty five.

922
00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 1: I could even be convinced it was sixty, and everybody

923
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:22,359
Speaker 1: in the theater seemed to enjoy it. So I do

924
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:26,640
Speaker 1: think probably in that age range is probably more who

925
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:29,520
Speaker 1: this movie is for. Because I wouldn't even classify it

926
00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:31,759
Speaker 1: as a bad movie. There's just not much to it.

927
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 1: So I would say, if you are a fan of

928
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:37,600
Speaker 1: Tom Hanks and we're curious by the trailer, curious by

929
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:39,680
Speaker 1: the premise, and from what I've told you about it,

930
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 1: I would say it's probably worthy once it goes to streaming,

931
00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:46,120
Speaker 1: and if you don't, I would say, if you don't

932
00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:48,279
Speaker 1: enjoy it after thirty minutes, don't waste your time on

933
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:50,000
Speaker 1: the rest of it. But if you do that, you

934
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:52,799
Speaker 1: won't even get much of Tom Hanks. So I would say,

935
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:55,319
Speaker 1: watch half of it when it goes to streaming, and

936
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,279
Speaker 1: if you don't like the first half, maybe just skip

937
00:39:57,360 --> 00:39:59,400
Speaker 1: to the end because that's where the real story is.

938
00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 1: Like you get you kind of get all that other

939
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:02,279
Speaker 1: stuff out of the way, and then get to the

940
00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:05,600
Speaker 1: real story at the end. So I feel like this

941
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:09,640
Speaker 1: movie would have benefited from taking away the one shot

942
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:14,320
Speaker 1: and still focusing entirely on the house. Personify the house

943
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:16,360
Speaker 1: a little bit more, because I would have been curious

944
00:40:16,360 --> 00:40:18,480
Speaker 1: to see some other rooms. So for a movie with

945
00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:23,239
Speaker 1: no real emotion, the acting felt very fragmented. Overall. The

946
00:40:23,280 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 1: novelty wear it off pretty quickly. They did this thing

947
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:28,880
Speaker 1: where they placed like these little boxes on the screen

948
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,040
Speaker 1: just to add a little something else, and it would

949
00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:34,839
Speaker 1: kind of give you flashes into other time periods where

950
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:37,720
Speaker 1: things were happening in this exact same spot. It also

951
00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:41,399
Speaker 1: kind of helped to identify the timeline of when things

952
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:44,719
Speaker 1: were happening by showing you real world events that kind

953
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:46,439
Speaker 1: of helped you place things in your mind. But even

954
00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:49,480
Speaker 1: with that, I found that distracting and kind of annoying.

955
00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:53,520
Speaker 1: So overall, the movie, like I said, was painfully average.

956
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:57,440
Speaker 1: It gets a painfully average score. I give here two

957
00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:04,960
Speaker 1: point five out of five living rooms. It's time to

958
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:09,360
Speaker 1: head down to movie. Mike trailor Paul. I heard the

959
00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:12,360
Speaker 1: premise or this new horror movie called Presence, and I

960
00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:15,040
Speaker 1: knew immediately that I was going to love this movie.

961
00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:17,200
Speaker 1: I haven't even seen it yet, just based on the trailer,

962
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:19,640
Speaker 1: based on what this movie is about, I already put

963
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:21,359
Speaker 1: it in my list for next year because it comes

964
00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:23,920
Speaker 1: out on January twenty fourth. I love me a horror

965
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:26,680
Speaker 1: movie in January. Great way to kick off the year.

966
00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:29,000
Speaker 1: Normally in that month we get a lot of just

967
00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:33,280
Speaker 1: random movies. Let's talk about last week. Got a comedy

968
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:35,680
Speaker 1: coming out in January, But a horror coming out in

969
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:40,080
Speaker 1: January is always exciting to me. Last year, Megan came

970
00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:42,439
Speaker 1: out in January right at the beginning of the year

971
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:45,320
Speaker 1: and was a smash hit, went totally viral. If you

972
00:41:45,360 --> 00:41:48,480
Speaker 1: can put out a good horror movie in January, it's

973
00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:50,200
Speaker 1: a good place to put it. Because we're coming out

974
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 1: of the holidays. We're all just Christmas movie out. We

975
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:56,160
Speaker 1: want to watch something scary at a time we're really

976
00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:59,160
Speaker 1: not supposed to watch something scary. Who says January isn't

977
00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:01,800
Speaker 1: for horror, I don't. I think we associate the month

978
00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:05,520
Speaker 1: of late September October with Halloween so much when it

979
00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:08,480
Speaker 1: comes to movies that we need to diversify them and

980
00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:11,080
Speaker 1: put them out whenever it makes sense. And that's the

981
00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:14,239
Speaker 1: difference between Christmas movies and horror movies is you can

982
00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:17,520
Speaker 1: only put out Christmas movies in November and December and

983
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,960
Speaker 1: have people care about them. A horror movie you can

984
00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:23,239
Speaker 1: put it out whenever and people will be invested in it.

985
00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:26,600
Speaker 1: So it is the ultimate holiday movie. But what Presence

986
00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:30,280
Speaker 1: is about. It turns the haunted house subgenre in horror

987
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:33,520
Speaker 1: upside down because it tells the story from the perspective

988
00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:37,319
Speaker 1: of the dark entity living inside the house instead of

989
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,840
Speaker 1: the perspective from the humans. If you know me, my

990
00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:44,680
Speaker 1: favorite subgenre in horror is the haunted house subgenre. My

991
00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:47,680
Speaker 1: favorite in the category happen to be at the Conjuring,

992
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:51,920
Speaker 1: Evil Dead, Paranormal Activity Sinister. I love movies where the

993
00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,799
Speaker 1: house itself is haunted and it freaks all the humans out.

994
00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:59,040
Speaker 1: And it's not that this hasn't been done or attempted before.

995
00:42:59,200 --> 00:43:01,960
Speaker 1: It is the stylele that this is being done that

996
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:05,839
Speaker 1: makes this more exciting. Steven Sodenberg is the director. He's

997
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:09,160
Speaker 1: done movies like Aaron Brockovich, Magic Mike the Ocean's Movies,

998
00:43:09,200 --> 00:43:13,359
Speaker 1: has a very diverse portfolio, so I think with a

999
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:16,600
Speaker 1: great director. By the looks of this trailer, it looks

1000
00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:20,160
Speaker 1: like a high budget low budget movie, because the feel

1001
00:43:20,200 --> 00:43:23,560
Speaker 1: of it just has this different perspective that I've never

1002
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:26,680
Speaker 1: really seen in just the trailer before, because they use

1003
00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:29,160
Speaker 1: a lot of drone shots and it feels like you,

1004
00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:32,000
Speaker 1: as the viewer, are hovering like a ghost floating through

1005
00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:35,200
Speaker 1: this house. And I haven't really seen drone shots utilize

1006
00:43:35,200 --> 00:43:38,600
Speaker 1: this way before because oftentimes it's used in action very

1007
00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:41,719
Speaker 1: quick cuts, you know, maybe cutting through traffic, going all

1008
00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:44,560
Speaker 1: the way up a building. But to scale it back

1009
00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:47,880
Speaker 1: and have it just kind of moving slowly through the house,

1010
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:51,760
Speaker 1: creeping up on all these humans living here, not knowing

1011
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:55,120
Speaker 1: there's this dark entity. Oh man, it looks so good.

1012
00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:58,040
Speaker 1: So before I get into more about my already deep

1013
00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:01,200
Speaker 1: love for presence, here's just a little bit of the trailer.

1014
00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:09,680
Speaker 2: What's it like? What's what like? I never heard anybody die? Scary?

1015
00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:14,840
Speaker 2: And it goes on, what do you mean? The world

1016
00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:18,160
Speaker 2: cracks apart and you fall into this hole and the

1017
00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:22,040
Speaker 2: sides are mud and you can't get up, and you

1018
00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:27,000
Speaker 2: wonder where they are and you wonder what it would

1019
00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:28,240
Speaker 2: be like if you were there.

1020
00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:32,440
Speaker 1: Too, And that's where the trailer really amplifies. See the

1021
00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:36,320
Speaker 1: house rumbling. You don't really see how the dark entity

1022
00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:39,399
Speaker 1: is going to approach the humans just yet, but I

1023
00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:42,120
Speaker 1: imagine it has to be pretty cool. The movie stars

1024
00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:44,879
Speaker 1: Chris Sullivan, who I primarily know from This is Us,

1025
00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:48,520
Speaker 1: and Lucy Lou, and I can't remember the last great

1026
00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:52,040
Speaker 1: Lucy Lou movie I saw. She was huge in the

1027
00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:56,520
Speaker 1: two thousands with movies like Charlie's Angels Killed Bill. And

1028
00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:58,840
Speaker 1: the only other thing I can think of recently that

1029
00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:01,880
Speaker 1: I've seen her in was the Red One trailer. That is,

1030
00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:04,720
Speaker 1: that holiday Christmas movie with the Rock and Chris Evans

1031
00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:07,480
Speaker 1: coming out later this year. And I would hate to

1032
00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:10,600
Speaker 1: dog on this movie more, mainly because people already called

1033
00:45:10,640 --> 00:45:14,000
Speaker 1: me out for giving this movie such a hard time. Well,

1034
00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:15,759
Speaker 1: let me go into this now, because I gave my

1035
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:18,920
Speaker 1: hear review earlier. When I went to go see that movie,

1036
00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 1: I was walking down the escalator at my regal, which

1037
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:25,560
Speaker 1: is two stories and the theater I was in within

1038
00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:29,160
Speaker 1: the lower story. And what do I see immediately at

1039
00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:33,960
Speaker 1: the end of the escalator this giant cardboard cutout for

1040
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,720
Speaker 1: Red One. I see the Rock space, I see Lucy

1041
00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:40,400
Speaker 1: Lew's face, I see Chris Evans face, I see that giant,

1042
00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:45,160
Speaker 1: ridiculous polar bear assaulting my eyes. As I'm coming down

1043
00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:48,680
Speaker 1: this escalator. I get off the escalator, and what do

1044
00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:51,080
Speaker 1: I see At the end of that hallway as I'm

1045
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:55,640
Speaker 1: going to the bathroom, I see an employee setting up

1046
00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:59,120
Speaker 1: this giant display for Red One. You know, if you

1047
00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:01,560
Speaker 1: go to the mall and they have it set up

1048
00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:03,840
Speaker 1: to where kids can go take pictures with Santa you

1049
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:06,839
Speaker 1: have that red carpet that leads the way down and

1050
00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:09,319
Speaker 1: at the very end is Santa Well, they had one

1051
00:46:09,320 --> 00:46:11,520
Speaker 1: of these set up, but at the end of that

1052
00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:16,520
Speaker 1: red carpet was another big display for Red One. I'm like, Okay,

1053
00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:19,160
Speaker 1: clearly that has to be all they're doing, right, No,

1054
00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:23,240
Speaker 1: because to the left of that was a big missing sign.

1055
00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:25,800
Speaker 1: Because the whole premise of Red One is that Santa

1056
00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:28,279
Speaker 1: Claus goes missing, they have to go find them. So

1057
00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:32,719
Speaker 1: next to that display is this big missing sign where

1058
00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:35,279
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, so and so is missing, so like

1059
00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:37,680
Speaker 1: those old school missing signs where you rip the number off.

1060
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:41,480
Speaker 1: So I've already been assaulted three times with three different

1061
00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:44,600
Speaker 1: displays for the same movie. I go to the bathroom,

1062
00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:47,120
Speaker 1: I use the bathroom, I go to wash my hands,

1063
00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:51,880
Speaker 1: and what has taken over the mirrors in the bathroom.

1064
00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:55,160
Speaker 1: These stick on like sticker plastic things that you can

1065
00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:59,080
Speaker 1: put on mirrors. At the very bottom of all four

1066
00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:04,160
Speaker 1: mirrors in the bathroom is a promo graphic for Red One.

1067
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:06,640
Speaker 1: And I told you guys when I broke down that

1068
00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:09,760
Speaker 1: trailer that it felt like they are going to market

1069
00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:13,399
Speaker 1: the crap out of this movie and put it everywhere,

1070
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:15,920
Speaker 1: and the only thing that they are hoping on is

1071
00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:19,200
Speaker 1: can we just get this out and everybody knows that

1072
00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:21,920
Speaker 1: it's coming out, force it down your throat, so you

1073
00:47:22,040 --> 00:47:24,919
Speaker 1: go watch this, And that is what happened. I had

1074
00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:29,120
Speaker 1: almost five different advertisements for this movie just walking to

1075
00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:34,240
Speaker 1: my movie, not even mentioning that the trailer was also

1076
00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:37,680
Speaker 1: running before here. So I know this wasn't a part

1077
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:40,520
Speaker 1: two of me dogging on Red One. And shout out

1078
00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:43,520
Speaker 1: to Lucy Loo for probably doing that movie to secure

1079
00:47:43,560 --> 00:47:45,920
Speaker 1: the bag and then doing a movie like Presence that

1080
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:47,919
Speaker 1: is probably a lot more fun for her to work

1081
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:52,000
Speaker 1: on and going to look better on her resume. But man,

1082
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:55,719
Speaker 1: I just can't believe how much they are spending on

1083
00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:58,520
Speaker 1: marketing that movie that has already cost two hundred and

1084
00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:04,040
Speaker 1: fifty million. I would have to guess maybe not overall

1085
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:07,440
Speaker 1: at the box office, but I think compared to the

1086
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:12,520
Speaker 1: budget size, I think Presence will probably make more based

1087
00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:17,520
Speaker 1: on its budget to box office ratio. But Presence will

1088
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:20,080
Speaker 1: focus on this one family finding out that they have

1089
00:48:20,120 --> 00:48:22,439
Speaker 1: a ghost in their home, and we're gonna find out

1090
00:48:22,440 --> 00:48:25,479
Speaker 1: how scary it is to see this story unfold from

1091
00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:28,759
Speaker 1: the perspective of the ghost. Again. This movie is coming

1092
00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:32,000
Speaker 1: out on January twenty fourth. I'll definitely be checking it

1093
00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:33,600
Speaker 1: out over Red one.

1094
00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:35,560
Speaker 3: And that was this week's.

1095
00:48:35,320 --> 00:48:38,279
Speaker 2: Edition of Movie Li Framer par and.

1096
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:40,880
Speaker 1: That is gonna do it for another episode here of

1097
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:43,279
Speaker 1: the podcast. But before I go, I gotta give my

1098
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:47,040
Speaker 1: listeners shout out of the week. This week, I'm going

1099
00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:50,440
Speaker 1: over to my Instagram dms and listeners shout out ghost

1100
00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:53,919
Speaker 1: to Silas, who sent me a screenshot listening to last

1101
00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:57,439
Speaker 1: week's episode talking about my Desert Island movie bracket. Gave

1102
00:48:57,480 --> 00:48:59,839
Speaker 1: me a couple of his picks. He said, comedy, either

1103
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:02,919
Speaker 1: Hangover or Hitch, so I had one of those in

1104
00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:06,399
Speaker 1: my bracket as well. You know, I don't really love

1105
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:08,880
Speaker 1: Hitch that much, and the two thousands had some really

1106
00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:12,680
Speaker 1: great rom coms, but I probably lean more towards the

1107
00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:16,359
Speaker 1: raunchier rom coms. If I'm going for a rom com

1108
00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:18,640
Speaker 1: more on the level of Hitch, I'll probably go into

1109
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:21,480
Speaker 1: my nineties rom coms. Silas also gave me his drama

1110
00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:23,560
Speaker 1: pick and said The Departed. That is a movie I

1111
00:49:23,560 --> 00:49:26,200
Speaker 1: have not seen in quite a while. I remember it

1112
00:49:26,239 --> 00:49:28,200
Speaker 1: was so massive when it came out back in two

1113
00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:30,200
Speaker 1: thousand and six. That is one I need to go

1114
00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:33,239
Speaker 1: back and watch and dive more into some Scorsese filmography.

1115
00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:35,799
Speaker 1: So thank you Silas for sharing your movie picks with me.

1116
00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:39,080
Speaker 1: Thanks to everybody who also submitted your picks on Facebook

1117
00:49:39,160 --> 00:49:41,440
Speaker 1: and Twitter. I always love it when you interact with

1118
00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:44,720
Speaker 1: the podcast. And until next time, go out and watch

1119
00:49:44,760 --> 00:49:47,320
Speaker 1: good movies and I will talk to you later.
