But before we get into all that, 16 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 1: I want to talk about movies we remember watching at school, 17 00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 1: and I'll explain how that topic came to be, So 18 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 1: a little bit of movie nostalgic coming up on this episode. 19 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 1: Thanks everybody for listening, Thanks for subscribing. Without any further ado, 20 00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 1: let's get start in a world where everyone and their 21 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:06,880 Speaker 1: mother has a podcast. One man stands to infiltrate the 22 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,680 Speaker 1: years of listeners like never before in a movie podcast. 23 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:15,040 Speaker 1: A man with so much movie knowledge, he's basically like 24 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: a walking I MTV with glasses from the Nashville Podcast 25 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 1: Network Movie Movie Podcast. I have Jonathan Lipniki coming up 26 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 1: in just a second, but before I want to do 27 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: this topic before I get into that interview, because how 28 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,759 Speaker 1: I wanted to tie this interview in with the topic 29 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 1: this week is movies that we all remember watching in school. 30 00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 1: So I threw this topic out on Twitter, and I 31 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 1: want to explain it because that's a little bit of 32 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:43,320 Speaker 1: a visual element to it. So I grew up in 33 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 1: the nineties. I started elementary school probably in about nine seven. 34 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: I'm twenty nine years old now. So all throughout my 35 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: years of being an elementary school in a little bit 36 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: into middle school and high school, we had these big 37 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 1: TVs that our kegs and wheel INDs. So if you 38 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: were born in the two thousands or later, you may 39 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 1: not remember these entirely, but I think most of you 40 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: guys listening right now probably remember when the teacher would 41 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 1: roll these things into your classroom, because that's literally what 42 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: you had to do. So what it was. It was 43 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 1: like this big cart and it had a TV usually 44 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:20,360 Speaker 1: fastened down to make sure it wouldn't fall over. And 45 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: then in the middle of little section it had like 46 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: this little shelf built in and it had either a 47 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 1: VHS and then later it had a DVD player. And 48 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:32,800 Speaker 1: there was always a certain selection of movies that schools 49 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,640 Speaker 1: would allow teachers to show in class or also just 50 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:37,640 Speaker 1: there was just like it felt like this group of 51 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 1: movies that been in with like, okay, we can make 52 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: these somewhat educational and have a kind of reason for 53 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: showing these in schools. So I think there's all these 54 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 1: movies that we remember watching back in the day, and 55 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: for some reason, we only watched these movies at school, 56 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 1: Like there weren't movies that I would go home and 57 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: want to watch or even remember going to see in theaters. 58 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: But we've all probably seen a bunch of these movies, 59 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: and I kind of want to break some of these 60 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: down to like there were the fun, rainy day movies 61 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 1: that all right, the teachers just letting you watch whatever. 62 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 1: We're just killing time at this point, and these are 63 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: all the movies we could pick from. And there are 64 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: always these movies that they would have some kind of 65 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 1: educational tie in that they would loosely try to go into, 66 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: whether they were based on a book that we all 67 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 1: read and ended up watching the movie or something like that. 68 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: But what I wanted to start with was a movie 69 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:26,399 Speaker 1: I really only remember watching in school. It's with Jonathan Lipniki, 70 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 1: who is coming up later, and it's Stewart Little And 71 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,240 Speaker 1: this was a movie actually based on the children's book. 72 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,639 Speaker 1: And while it is a fun movie and maybe one 73 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 1: of my favorites as a kid, it also kind of 74 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 1: cheated you a little bit because it is this kind 75 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 1: of crazy concept that comes from a children's book, but 76 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: it kind of shows kids like what a family can 77 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: be because obviously he's a little mouse living with this 78 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 1: family and the whole relationship with him and Jonathan Lipniki 79 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: in the movie, it kind of shows you how you 80 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 1: can accept somebody into your family. And it also just 81 00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 1: shows with how kids can deal with being different and 82 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: feeling like they don't belong. So while on the outskirts 83 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: of the movie it is just the crazy kind of 84 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: concept of this mouse going to be with his family, 85 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: it kind of teaches you a little bit, but it's 86 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: a movie that I really only remember watching at school, 87 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: and I just remember when that movie came out how 88 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:22,479 Speaker 1: famous Johnathan lip Nikki was for being that kind of 89 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 1: go to child actor of the late nineties and early 90 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: two thousand's, So I do want to ask him about 91 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: that movie coming up later, and also just how he 92 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 1: kind of dealt with being famous so quickly and being 93 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: so recognizable as a kid, So that one's a little 94 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: bit of both. I'm gonna go through just some educational 95 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 1: movies now, and I think a movie that we all 96 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 1: remember watching in school when they rolled that card out 97 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: was Remember the Titans, and you do learn a lot 98 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 1: from that movie, and I think it's a message that's 99 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: really important, especially for younger kids to watch that movie. 100 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 1: But the great thing about Remember the Titans is it's 101 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: also just a really good movie. No matter what. It 102 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: doesn't feel like a straight on education a movie like 103 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 1: I would watch that movie if it was on now, 104 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 1: And I think that was probably the most not to 105 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 1: say risk ay, but like on the rating side of 106 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: things like that's kind of the more intense that it got. 107 00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: I remember at some point they would start to show 108 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 1: movies and then had to get it to prove like 109 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 1: send you home with like a little permission slipt that 110 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: you were allowed to watch a movie. This is a 111 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,599 Speaker 1: Disney movie, but it does have more of an adult 112 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: feel to it. I don't think they ever say any 113 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: curse words in the movie, but I'd say it's on 114 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: the upper end of the rating skill. Another movie I 115 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 1: really remember only watching in school is October Sky with 116 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 1: Jake Jillenhall, and I remember having a tie in in 117 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 1: my fifth grade class that we were building a rocket 118 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 1: made essentially out of a little cardboard tube from paper 119 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 1: towels with like you know those eggshells you would, like real, 120 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: these little plastic eggs that you would get around Easter. 121 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 1: So we would break those apart and put that at 122 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: the top of the cone, and then we would build 123 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 1: like this PBC pipe thing and these little kind of 124 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 1: wings and a hot glue gun and put all those 125 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: things together. And somehow this was qualified as science and 126 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 1: we would bring them all to school one day, all 127 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,840 Speaker 1: painted and everything, and it was like a big thing 128 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 1: for fifth trainers to have these little paper cardboard rocket 129 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: think we would shoot them off and I remember mine 130 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,359 Speaker 1: blew up. But the whole thing was we were studying 131 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 1: about making our own paper rockets, and at the end 132 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: of it, we would launch them off and then watch 133 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: october Sky. I'm not sure if kids do anything like 134 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:26,279 Speaker 1: that these days. I don't think october Sky is that 135 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 1: much of a staple in elementary schools anymore. But if 136 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: you ever want to build a rocket and watch a 137 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: movie and combine those two things together in a lesson, 138 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,040 Speaker 1: there you go. And then there were the movies based 139 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: on books. So I guess the whole kind of reasoning 140 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 1: behind this is you make a kid watch a movie 141 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 1: after they've read a book. And I thought this was 142 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 1: really beneficial for me because you always say that the 143 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 1: book was better than the movie, and yeah, I have 144 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 1: to agree to some extent, because when you read a book, 145 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 1: you spend a lot more time with it, and you're 146 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 1: able to kind of paint the picture in your head, 147 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: and there's so many more storylines and kind of characters 148 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 1: that you can develop in a book that you can't 149 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: in a movie. So it's cool to kind of see 150 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:13,880 Speaker 1: where it goes from when you read it in class 151 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 1: and then watch the movie, and then in the end, 152 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,119 Speaker 1: sometimes it's the great lesson of like, Okay, you should 153 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: probably read the book because you get more out of it. 154 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 1: We watched the movie, and it's also kind of cool 155 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: to see how they act everything out and you're waiting 156 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: for things that you already know we're going to happen, 157 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: So I can see where that ties in. A lot 158 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 1: of the movies I remember watching were The Outsiders, to 159 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: Kill a Mockingbird, and of course Charlotte's Web were really 160 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 1: only movies that I would watch at school. Now, kind 161 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: of the in between of movies we watched for educational 162 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: purposes and then movies we just watched for fun on 163 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 1: rainy days were the Christmas movies. There's a few Christmas 164 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 1: movies that I would only watch at school, and I 165 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: think they kind of trying to play the line of like, okay, 166 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: these are somewhat educational to kids and learning lessons about 167 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,119 Speaker 1: the meaning of Christmas, but they were also just ways 168 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 1: to take up time as well. And I remember a 169 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: Miracle on thirty four Street, It's a Wonderful Life, and 170 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: then the Polar Express. And the fun tie in with 171 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 1: the Polar Express was it was always on a day 172 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 1: where they kind of try to make it special and 173 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:15,680 Speaker 1: celebrate Christmas without really celebrating Christmas, and we would all 174 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 1: just wear pajamas to class, and then we got to 175 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: drink hot chocolate and sometimes have like marshmallows thrown in there. 176 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: Like That's what I remember about that movie. And then 177 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: It's a Wonderful Life. Is such a long drawn out 178 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: Christmas movie, and it's also about a very sad topic 179 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 1: in a way, because he gets so depressed and his 180 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,840 Speaker 1: life isn't going right. It's barely a Christmas movie, but 181 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 1: for some reason it teaches this meaning of life and Christmas. 182 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 1: And we would watch it in school. But that's kind 183 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: of the in between of watching those kind of movies, 184 00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: and then you get to the fun rainy day movies. 185 00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 1: And the first movie I ever remember watching in school 186 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 1: was Peter Pan And I gotta say, there's nothing like 187 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 1: a Disney movie on v A chess. I know that's 188 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: a weird thing to say, but kind of like with 189 00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: music now that people say when you listen to an 190 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: album on vinyl has like this a different feel. Now, 191 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 1: I kind of feel that a little bit with VHS 192 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: when it comes to animation. For some reason, the sound 193 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:19,960 Speaker 1: on a VHS takes me back to how I felt 194 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 1: in in elementary school. It has like this nostalgic factor 195 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 1: of you know, we don't remember how hard it was 196 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 1: to get a VHS tape, put it in, make sure 197 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 1: it was already rewound. And also that on some of 198 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 1: these old school TVs they had what is called tracking 199 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: to where if you press play on a movie, sometimes 200 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: it's like not in sync all the way and when 201 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: you're watching it, it's like skipping a little bit and 202 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: you have to hit this little button that's the tracking 203 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 1: button to get it to line up perfectly and not 204 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 1: be all scrambled. Like that is the thing we take 205 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 1: for granted now that the only kind of comparison we 206 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 1: have is if you have slower Internet and you have 207 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,319 Speaker 1: to wait for a movie to load or it loses 208 00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: h D quality a bit, like that's our only equivality 209 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 1: that now. But before it was really annoying to put 210 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 1: a VHS in that maybe the classroom had had before 211 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: you and it didn't rewind it, like why would they 212 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 1: rewind it? Like how incourteous of them? But I remember 213 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 1: watching Peter Pan and having that kind of fuzzy feel 214 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: and the sound on it, and with the music sounded 215 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 1: because it was on the VHS tape, and those Disney 216 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 1: cartridges just had a cool collector's field to where you 217 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 1: would have all these in a closet somewhere in your house, 218 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,199 Speaker 1: and all the way they all lined up and have 219 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: a little artwork in those big plastic cases. Like there's 220 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:36,960 Speaker 1: something about those that had a cool collector's quality to them, 221 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 1: and you knew when your teacher brought those out that 222 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 1: it was going to be a good day in class. 223 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,840 Speaker 1: But I that's how I remember watching my first movie 224 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 1: in school. Now later we did get a DVD player, 225 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: and what I remember watching a lot was in Spanish class. 226 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 1: We would watch classic Disney movies, but watched them in Spanish. 227 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: Basically has a way to just have an excuse to 228 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,679 Speaker 1: watch movie but also make it educational. And for some 229 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: reason it was usually Shrek or Finding Nemo in Spanish, 230 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: and I think we would have to like write down 231 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 1: sentences and we would remember from the movie or study 232 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 1: it in some way. It was really just the way 233 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: to watch a Disney movie and have a reason to 234 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 1: watch it. But for some reason we got out of 235 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: doing work that way. But the nineties altogether, we're a 236 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 1: really great time for vhs is and just these movies 237 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 1: that kind of resonated at that time, so I kind 238 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 1: of run through some more of them that were just fun, 239 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 1: rainy day movies, and I don't really remember watching since 240 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 1: movies like Flubber, The Original Parent Traveled, Lindsay Lohan, Free Will, 241 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: it was a big one. We would watch all the time. 242 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 1: You got Homeward Bound, Tom and Huck from the old 243 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: school of Jonathan Taylor Thomas and that super nineties haircut 244 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 1: movies like Babe Indian in the Cupboard, James and the 245 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 1: Giant Peach and a lot of these were movies that 246 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: I remember watching other Disney movies, and these would be 247 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: the coming attractions for when you first put to be 248 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,319 Speaker 1: a Jes tape. So this is something that has really 249 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 1: gone away, but back in the day, when you would 250 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: get a VHS tape or even a DVD, right when 251 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: you would put that thing in before it got to 252 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: the movie, there would be coming attractions. And as a kid, 253 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 1: that was the best sound ever when you put a 254 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 1: Va Jess tape in. I'm gonna play that sound now 255 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: just to kind of get you in that mindset of 256 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: what it would be like when you would put a 257 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 1: tape in. If you don't remember this feeling that's the 258 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: sound we all remember. And before the movie started, you 259 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: would have trailers, kind of like when you go to 260 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,959 Speaker 1: the movies now or back when movie theaters were a thing, 261 00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: that it would be all the other movies that were 262 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:43,880 Speaker 1: coming out at that time, or even just straight to 263 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: video movies. And I remember watching VHS is so much 264 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:50,439 Speaker 1: that I had these memorized on each movie, so much 265 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 1: so that there are movies that I remember the trailer 266 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,320 Speaker 1: for but don't even remember the actual movie that came out. 267 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 1: So the things we have learned in this segment are tracking. 268 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 1: Back in the day, you had to fine tune a 269 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: picture on a VHS tape to make sure to get 270 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 1: it right. There was previews built into movies. There was 271 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 1: cartridges involved in this. And also when all else fails 272 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,080 Speaker 1: and you need a way to teach kids Spanish, just 273 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: take a regular movie and show it in Spanish. But 274 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 1: all right, what I want to get into next is 275 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 1: my interview with Jonathan Lipniki. Like I said, he was 276 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 1: in the movie as a kid, Stewart Little. His very 277 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 1: first movie was Jerry McGuire. He was also in The 278 00:13:28,040 --> 00:13:31,160 Speaker 1: Little Vampire and like Mike and he got really famous 279 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 1: when he was five years old and everybody kind of 280 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,080 Speaker 1: knew him as kind of the go to child actor, 281 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,360 Speaker 1: and I want to want to ask him what he 282 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 1: remembers from those days of being so famous so fast, 283 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 1: and when he realized, like, hey, people recognize me from 284 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 1: these movies I've been in. And the interesting thing about 285 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 1: him is that he took a break, like after he 286 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: did all those movies as a kid, he kind of 287 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: was like, I want to have a normal childhood and 288 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 1: go to a public school like everybody else and experienced that, 289 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 1: and since then he's been coming back into movies. Now. 290 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,719 Speaker 1: He has a new movie out called Broil, which is 291 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 1: a horror movie that's available now on streaming, So I'll 292 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: also get into that. Since it is October and we're 293 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: doing horror movies, I want to ask him about that movie. 294 00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 1: And then of course I have to ask him if 295 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,560 Speaker 1: he remember anything about working with Tom Cruise in Jerry McGuire, 296 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 1: So we'll get into that next. And No our feature 297 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 1: present on now with Jonathan lip Nikki. How's it going, man, good? 298 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 1: How are you doing? I'm pretty good. So I'm watching 299 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,960 Speaker 1: this Broil movie and it's unlike anything I've seen you 300 00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: in before, and I'm just wondering when you're doing this movie, 301 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: like do you have nightmares throughout filming? Yeah? I uh so, Like, 302 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 1: you know, it's really as you see, it's like a 303 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 1: really interesting character to get into and it's like really 304 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 1: dark circumstances. And didn't not think it would affect me. 305 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 1: I was like, whatever, when I go home, I leave, 306 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: I leave my work at work. No. I woke up 307 00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 1: every day before my alarm like heart race, like you know, 308 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 1: and I'll be like, why can't I just sleep to 309 00:15:02,840 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 1: my alarm because I would just be like there was 310 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 1: just this anxiety in me. Um. It was you know, 311 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 1: it was really an amazing fun shoot, but also intense. Definitely, 312 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 1: the circumstances will definitely play into your mind when you're 313 00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:18,040 Speaker 1: doing that all that. So like, how do you get 314 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 1: into that mind space to play a character like this 315 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 1: where you're in these weird situations experiencing these weird things, 316 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 1: Like what does that process kind of feel like for you? 317 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: You know, it's a lot of trying to put yourself 318 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 1: in you know, this shoes as much as possible. I mean, 319 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: it's it's kind of you know, I think it it 320 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 1: comes alive really when you come on a set and 321 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: you see and you're in the you're in the wardrobe 322 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 1: and you see all the crazy things, and the art 323 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:47,080 Speaker 1: direction was really great. So it helps you play along 324 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 1: and it helps you really invest yourself in the story. 325 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 1: But for me, it's a lot of I listen to 326 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 1: a lot of music, and I read the script over 327 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 1: and over, and I really just try to dive into 328 00:15:57,760 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: kind of almost a meditative state of just kind of 329 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 1: think being you know, feeling, feeling it out, and and 330 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 1: and and and thinking along the lines of of of 331 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 1: the circumstances that I'm put in. So when you do 332 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 1: a movie like this, do you have your lines down 333 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 1: like a d percent when you go into it or 334 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 1: is it like are you learning throughout the process? Well, 335 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 1: we changed a lot of definitely got a lot of 336 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 1: script changes, so, um, you know, I could be totally 337 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 1: off book and then it would be you know that 338 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 1: we change stuff. Um, you know, I go into it 339 00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,720 Speaker 1: as prepared as I can be, and then um, you know, 340 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 1: depending on the day, you know what you're gonna fill 341 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: in the next day you work on that and you 342 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 1: get really tight on that. But you know, I only 343 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 1: had two days to really prepare for this movie. That 344 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: from when I found out, I like it was for 345 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 1: sure mine and then all of a sudden, I was 346 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 1: leaving the next morning to go to Canada. So I 347 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 1: just watched as much movies that mean. The director talked 348 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: about that world kind of inspirations for him for this project, 349 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: and I just discussed with the director a lot and 350 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 1: we worked on it a bit, and uh, that was 351 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 1: really great to have a director who was really in 352 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,359 Speaker 1: the trenches with me. And I kind of locked myself 353 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 1: in my room in Canada and just explored. I explored 354 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,440 Speaker 1: it and it was you know, it's scary. It's always 355 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,639 Speaker 1: an intimidating task to take on a new project, let 356 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 1: alone something that's you know, pretty dark. Well, the movie 357 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:20,920 Speaker 1: is called Broil. It's out now on video on demand. 358 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 1: And I really like the character in it. And I've 359 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 1: kind of seen you, Like we're the same age, so 360 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 1: I've kind of seen you shift from you know, your 361 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 1: childhood actor days to doing this now. Like what has 362 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:36,400 Speaker 1: that transition process been? Like? Uh, you know, um, it's 363 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,320 Speaker 1: not smooth. You know, it's hard. It's it's a hard industry. 364 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 1: You know. Um, all jobs have a lot of difficulties 365 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:47,400 Speaker 1: to do them. Any anything you're gonna pursue creative endeavors 366 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: are hard, you know, It's it's about longevity and realizing 367 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: it's a marathon and not a sprint. I had a 368 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 1: lot of things I was very fortunate for in my 369 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:57,720 Speaker 1: childhood career. I worked a lot. And it's about, you know, 370 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,880 Speaker 1: constantly rediscovering why of this, and and constantly working on 371 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 1: um growing that that talent that is there, and and 372 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 1: and working on the actual craft of it and really 373 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 1: you know, being a fan. I'm always I'm still a 374 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 1: fan of just working. I'm I'm a fan of I'm 375 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 1: a fan of films. And it's it's just never losing 376 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 1: that childlike curiosity. And when you do your first movie 377 00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,679 Speaker 1: you're five years old, you do Jerry Maguire like, I 378 00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 1: don't remember anything from when I was five years old, 379 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: but yeah, you have a film where you're in and 380 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: you're five years old, Like, do you remember actually being 381 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 1: on set and filming that movie? Like bits and pieces, 382 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:36,680 Speaker 1: it's like glimpses at this point, or like small things 383 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,479 Speaker 1: I'll remember l or really weird like oh I remember 384 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,439 Speaker 1: how that piece of wardrobe looked or smelled or like, 385 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 1: you know, but a lot of it lives through the 386 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,119 Speaker 1: stories my family tells. And you know, my mom was 387 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 1: around a lot for you know, most of my filming, 388 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:51,800 Speaker 1: it was my mom and my mom, between my mom 389 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 1: and my dad. Like that's kind of my source of 390 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 1: a lot of the memory, you know. But yeah, it's 391 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: it's you know, each year goes by and it's like 392 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 1: just been a part of me, um, you know, and 393 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 1: so it's be here and there, you know, here and there. 394 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 1: Definitely the memories that's seeing that you and Tom Cruise 395 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 1: where you're going back and forth with facts.

He taught me what professionalism is, 402 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,360 Speaker 1: and um, I learned a lot and I also just 403 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 1: harnessed my love for doing this and making me realize 404 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: I want to do this for the rest of my life. 405 00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 1: How long after that movie did you realize like, oh, 406 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 1: I'm famous, like people who are like recognizing me, Like, 407 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,400 Speaker 1: how long after that did that happen, you know, when 408 00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: it came out, like it was just like a kind 409 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: of a interesting thing. I I didn't quite grasp officially 410 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 1: when like you know, when when when I first got recognized, 411 00:19:56,560 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 1: I was like, I didn't really quite understand it. I 412 00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 1: don't think you can ever understand it, no matter if 413 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 1: your kid or an adult, because you're the person living it, 414 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 1: so you don't really like understand what it means to 415 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:12,160 Speaker 1: other people. You know, you just understand what it's meant 416 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 1: to you and how you've lived through the circumstances in 417 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:18,119 Speaker 1: your life. But you know, it's an interesting thing. You know, 418 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 1: it's really it's really an interesting thing, especially at a 419 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 1: young age. I think one of my favorite movies a 420 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: kid was Stewart Little Um when you're doing that movie, 421 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: like what are you looking at when you're acting? Is 422 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,200 Speaker 1: there just like a little green screen thing or something 423 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 1: a piece of tape? A lot of the time, so 424 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 1: it's just a tape or like a laser laser pointner, 425 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,919 Speaker 1: you know, sometimes they had a little little doll but 426 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,239 Speaker 1: of Stewart, but like a lot of times it was 427 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 1: like tape, you know, just talking to tape. So the 428 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 1: movie's broil it's out now. Obviously it's October right now, 429 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,639 Speaker 1: so a bunch of people are watching scary movies after 430 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 1: people go see and check out Broil.

Um you know, uh, I 434 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 1: love the sixth Sense. I think that's great. You know. 435 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,679 Speaker 1: I like things that make you think, you know, I'm not. 436 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,439 Speaker 1: I don't love the cheap scares. I love like actually 437 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:19,199 Speaker 1: like I like I'm a thriller guy, you know. I 438 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,400 Speaker 1: like that good twist. Appreciate the time. Man. I hope 439 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 1: everybody checks out the movie. It's a great talking to you. 440 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:28,199 Speaker 1: Thank you, Thank you so much for watching. All Right, 441 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,000 Speaker 1: Going to get into a movie review now, talking about 442 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: the Trial of this Chicago seven, which is streaming now 443 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 1: on Netflix. Big thing about this movie, there's so many 444 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,400 Speaker 1: stars in it. You've got Sasha Baron, Cohen, Eddie Redmayne, 445 00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,439 Speaker 1: Joseph Gordon Levitt, so many the list. And we'll kind 446 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:44,399 Speaker 1: of get into that here in a little bit. And 447 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 1: it's a courtroom drama, and you think, how could they 448 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 1: make a court room drama? That's two hours long entertaining, 449 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 1: which is how I felt going into this movie. But 450 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 1: my opinion quickly changed. So let's just play a little 451 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:00,200 Speaker 1: bit of the trial to Chicago seven and then get 452 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: into this review. So here's just a little bit of that. 453 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,240 Speaker 1: When we walked in this morning, they were channing that 454 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:09,160 Speaker 1: the whole world is watching. If we leave here without 455 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 1: saying anything about why we came in the first place, 456 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 1: it will be heart breathing unlast summer, why did you 457 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,919 Speaker 1: come to the convention and the wall. We're giving them 458 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,119 Speaker 1: exactly what they want, a stage in an audience. You 459 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:24,880 Speaker 1: really think there's going to be a big audience. So 460 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:27,919 Speaker 1: the movie is about these seven people on trial, and 461 00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 1: it's surrounding the events from the nineteen Democratic National Convention 462 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 1: in Chicago, and it really starts off in the courtroom. 463 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 1: And going into this I was kind of like, how 464 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 1: are they going to make that compelling for the entire 465 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:44,119 Speaker 1: two hours? And you get a little bit at the beginning, 466 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 1: but pretty much you're learning the entire story of what 467 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 1: happened leading up to the trial, what happened to the riots, 468 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 1: and the issues with the police during this thing. It's 469 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:56,119 Speaker 1: all kind of unfold inside the courtroom, which I was 470 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:57,919 Speaker 1: wondering how they were going to do that, because if 471 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 1: you start out in your courtroom, it's gonna be a 472 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:03,879 Speaker 1: hunch of people talking. And I just found it hard 473 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,120 Speaker 1: to kind of grasp onto that concept that I didn't 474 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:07,720 Speaker 1: know a whole lot about the history of this. I 475 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 1: remember maybe learning a little bit in school, but it 476 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:13,159 Speaker 1: was really kind of learning about all this stuff for 477 00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,399 Speaker 1: the first time, and it kind of just goes together 478 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,919 Speaker 1: with the state of the world and now and how 479 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 1: it's an important thing to watch and to learn about 480 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: how this happened back in the sixties and we've seen 481 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,040 Speaker 1: stuff like this happening in today's world. So the first 482 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 1: thing that kind of stood out from this movie is 483 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 1: the amazing cast. You have so many people giving what 484 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:38,120 Speaker 1: I would say are arguably some of their best acting 485 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 1: performances of their career. But the thing about it is, 486 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 1: while they're giving is really great performances, it doesn't feel 487 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: like an oscar bait movie, because sometimes when you put 488 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 1: this many great actors into one movie with a really 489 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:54,440 Speaker 1: dramatic story, it's based on true events. That's that's all 490 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:59,440 Speaker 1: the recipe for an oscar chasing movie. And with this one. 491 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,640 Speaker 1: It has those elements, but it doesn't feel like they're 492 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:05,959 Speaker 1: trying to make it over dramatic in any way or 493 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 1: like they're going for that. You just get really great performance, 494 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:12,479 Speaker 1: is a really great story, and it's done so well 495 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 1: that it kept my attention throughout the entire movie. So 496 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:17,159 Speaker 1: maybe like the first five minutes, I was kind of 497 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 1: just wondering where it's going and how it's going to 498 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,760 Speaker 1: get into the story. But after that you're pretty into 499 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:26,040 Speaker 1: it because while the trial is going on, they're showing 500 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 1: all the events that led up to it. They're showing 501 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,680 Speaker 1: all of the really crazy things that are sometimes hard 502 00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:35,679 Speaker 1: to watch and hard to take in, and throughout the 503 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:38,439 Speaker 1: trial you feel something from this movie. You get an 504 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 1: emotion out of it, from the way the judge is 505 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 1: acting in this and it's just like almost unbelievable at moments, 506 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 1: like all the things put into it. It's really crazy 507 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:52,440 Speaker 1: to see what this story was about, why they were 508 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:55,159 Speaker 1: on trial, and everything that led up to it. I 509 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 1: think it was just done so well that about halfway 510 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 1: through it, I was like, I want to see how 511 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,640 Speaker 1: this is gonna end, And as soon as this is over, 512 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go and look up how accurate everything was, 513 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:07,680 Speaker 1: and kind of learned about this a little bit more. 514 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,400 Speaker 1: And while they're showing some of the stuff like in Chicago, 515 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,199 Speaker 1: like I've been in Chicago before and I kind of 516 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,400 Speaker 1: remember those scenes and that was kind of cool to see. 517 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 1: What I really liked about it was how they kind 518 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,880 Speaker 1: of spliced in here and there, like real footage, real 519 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:25,160 Speaker 1: news footage from when these things were happening, to show 520 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: like they depicted in like exactly how it was. They 521 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 1: didn't really over dramatize it in anyway. They were showing, 522 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,879 Speaker 1: like the protests and the violence, all that stuff was 523 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 1: just scene for seeing in the locations they happened, how 524 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 1: they all went down, so it's not really taking any 525 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 1: liberties in that aspect. I think my favorite performance in 526 00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:48,160 Speaker 1: this was Sasha Baron Cohen, just because I know him 527 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 1: as Borat and being a comedic actor and all the 528 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 1: characters he has and seeing him do this role where 529 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 1: it has a little bit of comedic kind of relief 530 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,760 Speaker 1: in the movie. Oddly, in a corner drama, there is 531 00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 1: some kind of things that make you kind of laugh 532 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,320 Speaker 1: or snickering a little bit, and I think he brings 533 00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:08,639 Speaker 1: that to the movie. But Aside from that, it just 534 00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:10,359 Speaker 1: shows how great of an actor he is, and it 535 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 1: makes me think of when he was initially working on 536 00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:15,639 Speaker 1: the Bohemian Rapsody movie and he was going to be 537 00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 1: Freddie Mercury, Like I can kind of see him now 538 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 1: in a really great dramatic role. So that was cool 539 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 1: to see. Also Eddie Redmain because he's playing an American 540 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,439 Speaker 1: in this movie and you really can't tell from his 541 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,360 Speaker 1: accent or anything that it came that it comes through 542 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,879 Speaker 1: that way. I thought he was fantastic in it as well. 543 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:38,400 Speaker 1: And then Joseph Gordon Levitt, like you forget how good 544 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 1: of an actor he is. That he's been in so 545 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 1: many things and has a really great range from doing 546 00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 1: action movie to doing drama to doing comedies, and seeing 547 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 1: him in this as now kind of an older, more 548 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 1: seasoned actor. He was really great in this as well. 549 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 1: And while he's on the opposing side in this drama, 550 00:26:57,800 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 1: he's still able to kind of be a good guy 551 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:01,880 Speaker 1: in this as well. And then when you factor in 552 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,360 Speaker 1: that Aaron Sorkin was the one who wrote and directed 553 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:07,120 Speaker 1: this movie. He's done stuff like The West Wing, he 554 00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 1: wrote The Social Network, Moneyball, and a few good men 555 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 1: so he knows this kind of drama, and all that 556 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 1: together it just really makes for a great entertaining movie, 557 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:19,199 Speaker 1: almost unexpected because it is a chore room drama, like 558 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 1: I said, and you go into it not knowing what 559 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 1: you're going to get out of it, but you end 560 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: up learning a lot. If you're like me, you'll watch 561 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 1: it and then kind of want to go research a 562 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:30,399 Speaker 1: little bit more about this, how accurate the ending was, 563 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 1: and how all the facts kind of came into place. 564 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:36,400 Speaker 1: So that's also another aspect of it. If you're into 565 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 1: watching a movie learning about history and then kind of 566 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:40,679 Speaker 1: going back and doing some research on yourself, it's a 567 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,160 Speaker 1: perfect movie for that. And if you already have Netflix, 568 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 1: you don't have to pay any other rental fear or 569 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 1: anything like that. So I would give this movie four 570 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:52,640 Speaker 1: point five out of five gavels one because I went 571 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:56,360 Speaker 1: into it with no real expectation and it left me 572 00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:58,640 Speaker 1: feeling like I learned a lot and got a lot 573 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:01,679 Speaker 1: of entertainment at it while getting some little bit of 574 00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 1: education too, because the cast is just amazing and they're 575 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:09,720 Speaker 1: acting to superb and three because like I said, it 576 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:11,960 Speaker 1: is over two hours, but it never felt like that 577 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:14,880 Speaker 1: in any way, So a really great watch if you're 578 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 1: looking for something good to watch on Netflix. And whenever 579 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 1: the Oscars happened, I'm sure that will be nominated a 580 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 1: good amount as well. So get in on this one early, 581 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:25,639 Speaker 1: all right. I also want to do a bonus movie 582 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:27,879 Speaker 1: review here, kind of a mini review, because I also 583 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 1: watched Love and Monsters, which is only available to rent, 584 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 1: which is a good twenty dollars that you're gonna spend 585 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 1: if you want to watch this movie. But this week 586 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 1: on the Bobby Bones Show, which I'm a producer and 587 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 1: writer for, we had Michael Rooker on who was in 588 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 1: this movie, and I did all kind of the research 589 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: and wrote some question for him and kind of deep 590 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 1: dive into this movie because I hadn't really heard a 591 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 1: whole lot about it. Because this movie was supposed to 592 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: come out back and I believe March or April, and 593 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 1: it was postponed because of coronavirus, and it was supposed 594 00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 1: to come out now in theaters, but then recently they 595 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 1: were like, all right, we're just gonna put the hout 596 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 1: to stream on demand. So in a way, it kind 597 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 1: of came out of nowhere. And when I was looking 598 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 1: at stuff about this movie. I was like, Hey, this 599 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 1: actually looks like it's a pretty interesting movie and was 600 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 1: gonna get the full theatrical experience, but just went onto streaming, 601 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 1: so I was like, I'll check it out since it 602 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 1: already be up to that quality, and I ended up 603 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 1: really liking it, Like Michael Rooker's character was really good 604 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 1: in it, even though he was only in like a 605 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: little bit on the movie. And then Dylan O'Brien, who 606 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,959 Speaker 1: I always get confused with two other actors, and then 607 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 1: I realized who he was in this movie. I was like, Okay, 608 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 1: that's that guy, but he also looks like the guy 609 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 1: who was in Perks of Being a Wallflower, and then 610 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 1: also kind of looks like the guy who is the 611 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 1: teenager in Thirteen Reasons Why, Like they all exactly the 612 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 1: same to me for some reason. But I thought the 613 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 1: movie was pretty good. It kind of reminded me of 614 00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:47,760 Speaker 1: Zombie Land into where it's a post apocalyptic world and 615 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 1: you have a young Lee trying to stay alive and 616 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,840 Speaker 1: also find love, and the monsters actually look really cool 617 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,239 Speaker 1: in this. But I think what kind of steals this 618 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 1: movie is there's a dog who is name Dog in 619 00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 1: the movie who he kind of befriend and kind of 620 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,920 Speaker 1: becomes the breakout star for me. Like I ended up 621 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 1: after watching this movie like looking at what type of 622 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 1: dog this was and thinking about getting a dog like this. 623 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 1: So I thought it was a really entertaining watch. And 624 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:13,080 Speaker 1: if you're looking for something to give you kind of 625 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 1: that getting a blockbuster type movie at home, I think 626 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 1: this is a pretty good one, but it is twenty bucks. 627 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 1: I rented it on Apple, you can rent it on 628 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 1: Amazon or anywhere, but it does have that kind of 629 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:23,960 Speaker 1: price tag. I think if you're having like a little 630 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: movie night with your family or maybe just having a 631 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 1: couple of friends over and you're looking for something like 632 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,040 Speaker 1: that to watch, I think it's a pretty good one, 633 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:32,640 Speaker 1: but yeah, if you can get over that twenty dollar 634 00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 1: price tag. I also watched another movie called Clouds, and 635 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 1: I'm gonna wait to review and talk about that one 636 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 1: until next week because it's based and inspired on a 637 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,840 Speaker 1: true story and it's on Disney Plus, and I gotta 638 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 1: say it's the first movie in a very long time 639 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 1: to make me emotional to the point where I cried. 640 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 1: So if you have Disney Plus and you haven't watched 641 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 1: or heard about Clouds, yet I'm going to talk about 642 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 1: it next week, and I'm going to talk about movies 643 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 1: that make you cry or make you emotional, and I 644 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 1: think it's a whole kind of topic to discover. And 645 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 1: I don't want to go just straight up sad movies, 646 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 1: because I think there's other movies that can make you 647 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:11,600 Speaker 1: sad and feel things that aren't just straight up death related. 648 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 1: So that is what I'll be talking about next week. 649 00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 1: If you want to go watch that movie now and 650 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 1: may put you in that headspace for next week. And 651 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 1: if you want to shoot me any kind of suggestions 652 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 1: of sad movies, you can always tweet me or send 653 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 1: me a message or Instagram dm at Mike Destro that's 654 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 1: Mike d e s t r Oh. That'll be the 655 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,239 Speaker 1: topic we get into next week for Hop out of Here. 656 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: I got a little bit of movie news to go over. Um. 657 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 1: Also talking about that Michael Rooker interview that we did, 658 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 1: he did essentially confirmed that they do go into space 659 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 1: on the new Fast and Furious movie f nine, which 660 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 1: somehow that's kind of been the thing to do now, 661 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 1: and he did say that his character is earthbound, but 662 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 1: hinted to the fact that maybe other people go into space. 663 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:55,680 Speaker 1: And I don't know why Fastened the Furious has to 664 00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:57,480 Speaker 1: go into space. I don't know why Tom Cruise is 665 00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 1: wanting to take a real life spaceship into space. I 666 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 1: don't know. Maybe they're so bored of doing things on 667 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 1: the ground they have to move in the new territory 668 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 1: into space. But whenever you go to space, I think 669 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:08,239 Speaker 1: that's kind of jumping the shark. That means like, hey, 670 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 1: we're running out of things to do, Let's do the 671 00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 1: same movie, but let's do it in in space. But yeah, 672 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 1: that was also a good interview if you want to 673 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:16,480 Speaker 1: check out the Bobby Bones show when we talked to him. 674 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 1: I've also been following the whole old New Spider Man 675 00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:23,000 Speaker 1: movie that they're coming out with, and it's been rumored 676 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 1: now that they're bringing back the two other Spider Man 677 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 1: Andrew Garfield and Toby McGuire and Sony put out a 678 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 1: statement this week saying that that's not really confirmed yet, 679 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:36,479 Speaker 1: but they didn't deny it, so it could be something 680 00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:39,440 Speaker 1: coming within that realm. Maybe we have it off just 681 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:41,720 Speaker 1: a little bit, but they didn't just straight up say no, 682 00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 1: that's not happening. It seems to be that they're doing 683 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:48,960 Speaker 1: something like that where there is multiple Spiderman. Is that 684 00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:51,320 Speaker 1: the plural for Spider Man? I don't know Spiderman, but 685 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:54,240 Speaker 1: it would be so cool to see Andrew Garfield, Toby 686 00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 1: McGuire come back and to be working and together with 687 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 1: Tom Holland. I think that would be a crazy kind 688 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:04,720 Speaker 1: of monumental moment in Marvel. Also a very expensive movie 689 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 1: to make, if that's the case. So I don't know 690 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 1: if that's what they're doing entirely, but they're definitely up 691 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 1: to something, and they're not straight up to nine it. 692 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 1: So I'll follow that rumor and keep you guys updated. 693 00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 1: And also, the crazy thing I saw is that AMC 694 00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:21,480 Speaker 1: is now allowing people to rent out movie theaters for bucks. 695 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 1: And I found this pretty interesting because right around the 696 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 1: time that coronavirus hit, this was the thing I was 697 00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 1: thinking about doing. I wanted to do this event where 698 00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,120 Speaker 1: I invited a bunch of you guys who listened to 699 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 1: the podcast to do this event where I read at 700 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 1: a movie theater and that people just come watch like 701 00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 1: an old classic movie, and it'd be this whole kind 702 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 1: of event to just thank you guys for listening to 703 00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:41,080 Speaker 1: the podcast in a way to kind of meet some 704 00:33:41,120 --> 00:33:43,440 Speaker 1: of you guys who listen to this. And I was 705 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 1: looking into how much it would cost to rent a 706 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 1: movie theater. It was a lot more than it wasn't 707 00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 1: terribly expensive at the one I was looking at. But 708 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 1: doing this now would be pretty awesome. And I think 709 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 1: they're keeping it to maybe under twenty people, and there's 710 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 1: only certain cities doing it now, and there's only certain 711 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:00,960 Speaker 1: movies you can hatch, but I think that would be 712 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:02,959 Speaker 1: a pretty cool thing to do. I just think it's 713 00:34:03,000 --> 00:34:05,200 Speaker 1: another way they're kind of trying to stay afloat until 714 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 1: they can come back and have new movies on. But 715 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 1: I would definitely rep one out for ninety nine bucks 716 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 1: and invite twenty people would come watched that, Like, I 717 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 1: think that would be cool. I think they should have 718 00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:15,879 Speaker 1: something like this even when there isn't a pandemic going on. 719 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:18,399 Speaker 1: And then finally, the movie I was talking about last week, 720 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 1: QB Halloween, which I still see up there in the 721 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 1: top ten on Netflix. So I'm not the only one 722 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 1: who enjoyed that movie. But one of the news anchors 723 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:28,319 Speaker 1: who was in that movie and that little sequence where 724 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 1: they went to the news and they were all addressed 725 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:33,319 Speaker 1: in the Harley Quinn costume. One of those extras was 726 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:36,480 Speaker 1: actually a news anchor in Boston, and she lost her 727 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:39,359 Speaker 1: job because she said that her news station said her 728 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:41,920 Speaker 1: being in that movie violated as her contract, which was 729 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:44,879 Speaker 1: really weird to me because I think if you go 730 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 1: and do a movie, maybe you clear it with your 731 00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:50,280 Speaker 1: employer first that you're you know, you're doing a cameo 732 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:53,799 Speaker 1: in a Netflix movie as a news anchor. I don't 733 00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:57,279 Speaker 1: see how that actually happened. So her name is Elena Pinto. 734 00:34:57,320 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 1: I mean that sucks. Hopefully it's an update where they 735 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 1: hire he back or she lands back on her feet. 736 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 1: So I just don't see how that happened. All Right, 737 00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:06,480 Speaker 1: that's gonna do it for this week's episode. I got 738 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,200 Speaker 1: to get into this week's Instagram shout out going over 739 00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:10,719 Speaker 1: to my d m s this week, and it's to 740 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:12,920 Speaker 1: Dan Vanna, who has been listening for a very long 741 00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 1: time and always sends me nice messages.
