As you know, 50 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: I'm a big believer that the movies effect as like 51 00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 1: geist and vice versa. Uh, And I've been just using Google. 52 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:08,079 Speaker 1: I just Google movies of two thousand fourteen and look 53 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: at the top results because Google, Uh, maybe it might 54 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: be reacting to me what it knows about me when 55 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 1: you googled this list? This is what? This is the 56 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 1: old when I google movies. Yeah, it's so funny because 57 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 1: this morning I was starting I wasn't clear on who 58 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,320 Speaker 1: was going to start trying to put this research together. 59 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: And I did the same search. The first thing that 60 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:33,400 Speaker 1: it showed for me was Grand Budapest Hotel. Was it? Yeah, Uh, 61 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: that's so weird. Yeah, I guess it knows that I'm 62 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: a sick nerd culture freak who loves Guardians of the 63 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: Galaxy and I love fucking symmetry. Yeah, so is that 64 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 1: Wes Anderson. Yeah yeah, yeah, Grand Boot. I didn't see 65 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: it really, Maybe maybe your algorithm just knows that you 66 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: need to see that. Yeah, They're like the one thing 67 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 1: I do really like Grand Budapest Hotel. There was a 68 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: promotional cologne that my mom got for that movie, and 69 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,119 Speaker 1: I love that. Oh really, yeah, smelled great. I think 70 00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: that's his best movie. Really. Yeah, damn. It's not like 71 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: maybe Rushmore. I'm not a huge I mean, I like 72 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: Wes Anderson, but I'm not like a stand or anything. 73 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 1: But yeah, I'm not say that I got time. There's 74 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 1: a lot of movies on this list I still need 75 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: to see. Still Interstellar.

Gone Girl came out this year. 84 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 1: I feel like, Okay, so Guardians of the Galaxy came out. 85 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 1: That was a huge hit. I also feel like it 86 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: has taken on it. I mean it was like Chris 87 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:55,239 Speaker 1: Pine became a thing off of that Pine. Not Chris Pine, 88 00:04:55,480 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: Chris Pratt, the other Crisp. Crispy Chris is uh Chris 89 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: p Rat Donuts, Yamagucci main exactly. Yeah, Chris Pratt became 90 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 1: a thing before this. He was just Andy from Parks 91 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:13,919 Speaker 1: and rec uh and probably in one other thing or something. 92 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: But Edge of Tomorrow, the tom Cruise movie, was not 93 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: a hit. Uh a k lived I repeat that was. 94 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: That was a thing where I had a DVD hanging around. 95 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 1: I picked it up.

Yeah, And I feel like it's 98 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 1: been it's kind of grown in stature in our after 99 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: the fact. I feel like Gone Girls same, like it 100 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 1: was a hit, but then like I feel like Gone 101 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 1: Girling has become a No, it hasn't.

I don't feel 106 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,600 Speaker 1: like a lot of people reference it. I mean, it's 107 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 1: like a movie who I feel like I need to 108 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 1: watch it again because I really enjoyed it the first time. 109 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: But it's just one of those films that I I'm 110 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 1: not I'm trying to remember if I liked it because 111 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 1: of the way it was shot, because it was actually good.

But yeah, I mean that 196 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,559 Speaker 1: was really when I was like, oh, like it's to me. 197 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, now we're we really do see that. 198 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 1: It awoke a certain mentality, like it could allowed all 199 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 1: these people to sort of gather around a common cause, 200 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: which was like women were trying to do what Yeah, 201 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 1: this is where Mike Sernovitch came from.

Steve Bannon saw the energy behind gamer 207 00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: Gate and was like, you know, I think there might 208 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 1: be for basically a populist movement on the right to 209 00:11:56,480 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: like come through and respond to all these people who 210 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: feel like entitled two secs basically, Um, because it's wild 211 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:11,720 Speaker 1: that that, like, this is the worst possible version that 212 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: I could possibly imagine looking back six years on at 213 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: this story and being like, oh, this movement became the 214 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 1: president right of the United States.

Not seen it, what's the g M. It's 234 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:46,679 Speaker 1: just just a nightmare, nightmare alternate history. So this is 235 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 1: a kind of a dark year, dark couple of years. Uh, 236 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 1: Ebola outbreak was this year. Uh, the Malaysian flight that 237 00:13:56,559 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: disappeared happened this year. We've talked the past episode of 238 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 1: t d Z, but this is one of those stories 239 00:14:04,280 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 1: that I think the energy from the media was behind 240 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 1: maintaining the mystery. They were like, it's so mysterious, like 241 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 1: we never know, like it disappeared into thin air and 242 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,839 Speaker 1: we actually know what happened to the plane. Um, there 243 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 1: was an Atlantic kind of deep dive into it, and 244 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 1: they know where it crashed based on like, uh, you know, 245 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 1: debris that washed up on shores and like tide patterns, 246 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 1: they have a rough idea of where it crashed. They 247 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 1: also know like where it was right before it would 248 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: have run out of fuel and it was like over 249 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 1: the South Indian Ocean. Uh, And they also know what happened. 250 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: It was the pilot um did it on purpose. I mean, 251 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: we don't know why necessarily. He was like going through 252 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 1: some tough things at home. But he was a veteran 253 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 1: pilot in his fifties, and he had a flight simulator 254 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: at his home that he ran like thousands of flight 255 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 1: simulations on and the one of the last ones he ran, 256 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 1: or the very last one, was the exact flight path 257 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: that they think the plane took before it crashed. So 258 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,920 Speaker 1: he it was such a mystery to at the time. 259 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 1: There were so many theories about what happened, But I 260 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 1: think they're part of it too, Like it activated a 261 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 1: weird part of people's like imaginations. I think too, like 262 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 1: there was something really interesting to people at the time 263 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 1: when they're like, well, what really could have Yeah, And 264 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 1: I think it's still like people are still like think 265 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 1: that it just disappeared into thin air. And I mean 266 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,120 Speaker 1: there's been I blame lost. There's been well there's lost, 267 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: but there's also been like a USA show where it's 268 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 1: like this flight disappeared in the fifties and then just 269 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 1: landed and like the fucking movie from the eighties or something. Yeah, 270 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,240 Speaker 1: but it's you know, I'm talking about where like these 271 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: people were like on a flight and then like they 272 00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 1: land in some weird place and like they're completely placed 273 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 1: with others. No fuck, no clue what you're talking about. 274 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 1: Oh man, I'll let it. So it was. It sounds 275 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 1: like the listeners are screaming whatever that movie is. But airplane, Well, 276 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: we're gonna actually take a quick break for Miles to 277 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 1: look that up and we'll be right back and he 278 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: will shout it out loud as he realizes what it was. 279 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 1: Back in a minute and we're back, and Miles, did 280 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,280 Speaker 1: you figure it out? It's either I'm thinking Millennium or 281 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 1: the Langoliers. I think it's the legal Ears when I 282 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 1: actually read the description, But Langoliers. Most of the passers 283 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 1: on airplane disappear and the remainder land the plane mysterious 284 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 1: and a mysteriously barren airport. And that is just the 285 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 1: way the human memory works. That's what people are going 286 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 1: to remember as what actually happened to the Malaysian plate 287 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: right sotal anglers. It was a total angle ears. Uh. 288 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:07,879 Speaker 1: So this was also the year of Michael Brown being 289 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:13,360 Speaker 1: killed by a police officer and the protests in Ferguson 290 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 1: and Eric Gardner's death was also two thousand fourteen. There 291 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 1: was that was such a dark it's that you know, 292 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 1: not that like the darkness continues, you know, it's the 293 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:28,679 Speaker 1: same same ship. And I think this was when it 294 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:32,040 Speaker 1: was just happening with such frequency to uh and it 295 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 1: continues to it just I don't know, it feels like 296 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 1: a problem that will just won't go away. And this 297 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:42,199 Speaker 1: was kind of continuing with the pest thread. This was 298 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 1: also we we saw a sort of the militarization of 299 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 1: the American police force and like how they dealt with 300 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,439 Speaker 1: the protests and Ferguson. They were like giant you know, 301 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 1: military vehicles and you know, all sorts of just really 302 00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:01,640 Speaker 1: overly aggressive to actics. They were used by the police too, 303 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: you know, for the purposes of quote unquote crowd control. 304 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:11,919 Speaker 1: And the guy who killed Michael Brown, the cop was 305 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 1: never didn't see a day of jail for that. The 306 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 1: guy who killed Eric Garner also never saw any criminal consequences. 307 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:25,000 Speaker 1: He did get fired from the New York Police Force 308 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 1: five years on. So um, yeah, yeah, you know, this 309 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: is also the year that Isis kind of became a 310 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 1: thing where we Isis sort of rose up, swept across uh, 311 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 1: came out of Iraq and you know, started fucking ship 312 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:49,520 Speaker 1: up basically just uploading horrific videos of all these executions 313 00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 1: and ship and all their propaganda. Like I think they 314 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,199 Speaker 1: it's like when we saw terrorism move into like the 315 00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:59,399 Speaker 1: digital aged. Yeah, they were pretty advanced in terms of 316 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 1: how they were communicating and and also just how their 317 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 1: military strategy as compared to like al Qaeda. We we 318 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: had started hearing that al qaedo was sort of falling 319 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:18,680 Speaker 1: apart and getting beaten back by US military and then 320 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,359 Speaker 1: this it was basically the remnants of al Qaeda in 321 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 1: Iraq came came through with this massive movement. And it's 322 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 1: also this is also kind of like a weird moment 323 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:34,240 Speaker 1: to where people We're starting to realize like that YouTube 324 00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 1: and social media were becoming a real recruitment tool. Also, 325 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: it was the first and only bad thing that social 326 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:48,199 Speaker 1: media has ever produced to this huh Um, this was 327 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:53,639 Speaker 1: also the conflict in Ukraine in Kiev, where you know, 328 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 1: a bunch of people were protesting a head of state 329 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: who was very pro Russia moving Ukraine away from the EU. 330 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: And you know it ended up with a massive protest 331 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:12,160 Speaker 1: in the middle of Kiev where they built like a 332 00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 1: snow fort and fought the cops.

I 350 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:32,800 Speaker 1: don't could have swore like a Dolly one. Yeah, I 351 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,919 Speaker 1: mean I am right because I remember producer Daniel is confirming. 352 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 1: Yeah exactly. It was like of a black woman, I believe, 353 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 1: And yeah, this is cool. The beginning of her being 354 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:47,919 Speaker 1: like I don't know, that was like, I really that 355 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:51,439 Speaker 1: was like a really sick photo shoot. Right. This was 356 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 1: also the year of the sexy felon the um much 357 00:21:56,840 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 1: shot of that really really handsome dude, Jeremy Eeks. He's 358 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: bays Fuck yeah, isn't he? He got like engaged or 359 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 1: married to someone who's wealthy as fuck. Yeah. I don't 360 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,119 Speaker 1: know if they're still together. But he got out of 361 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 1: he got out and left his girlfriend who had been 362 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 1: standing by him while he was in jail, and really 363 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 1: left her for a rich, famous person. I think, um, 364 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 1: see what happens. This is when Renee's elwigger. We saw 365 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,119 Speaker 1: her for the first time and like a decade and 366 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:36,399 Speaker 1: she looked totally different. That's right, right, and forgot it 367 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 1: was weird because like there was a lot of like pushback, 368 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 1: people just being like, well, leave women alone, like stop 369 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:46,120 Speaker 1: you know, policing what women look like. It was not 370 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 1: so much that as and I mean this is me 371 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:53,640 Speaker 1: a guy saying this, But at the same time, like 372 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: I would have had the same reaction had it been 373 00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:00,639 Speaker 1: any dude. Like she just looked like she had taken 374 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: a different person's face and put it on. Yeah, it 375 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,359 Speaker 1: just looks like a different person. I think it's just well, 376 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: I think that's the issue, right, is like you take 377 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 1: something like like celebrity culture and how it's like hyper 378 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:18,200 Speaker 1: scrutinized and everything. So yeah, it's a toxic equation where 379 00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 1: the upcomes will always be toxic, right. Yeah. I mean 380 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:25,879 Speaker 1: it's definitely that she or anyone felt pressure to change, 381 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 1: how well. And also when you think of like now too, 382 00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: in the nature of like the digital like media landscape, 383 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 1: like the takes had to be fucked up to get 384 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 1: the clicks, Like you couldn't be like Renee's l Wegger 385 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:41,440 Speaker 1: has like re emerged. The headlines would be like what 386 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:45,680 Speaker 1: has she done to her face? Her face? Don't believe 387 00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:50,120 Speaker 1: what Reneelger? She didn't look better or worse. She just 388 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: looked like a different person. But people were like, what 389 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 1: did she do to her face? Um? Yeah, so the 390 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:02,840 Speaker 1: internet fuck off? Also, this was uncanny. It was an 391 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:07,920 Speaker 1: uncanny experience. Uh, Taylor Swift drop nine, as we mentioned, 392 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 1: twenty or one point two million copies week one. Uh, 393 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 1: and now we're gonna listen to it and it's entire 394 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:21,159 Speaker 1: uh the ice bucket Challenge. Remember this. You guys seen this, 395 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 1: you heard about this. Didn't do it? You didn't. Uh. 396 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: I had a whole bunch of people around me who 397 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 1: were doing it and it got to me and I 398 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 1: didn't do it and that was it. Wow. Yeah, so 399 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 1: we can blame you for everything that's happened. Yeah. Bill 400 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:41,399 Speaker 1: Gates did it and his version racked up twenty million views. 401 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 1: Charlie Sheen's got nearly as many. And Bill Gates, I mean, 402 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 1: he's a humanitarian and a great great man who around 403 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 1: this time was hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein. Yeah, but 404 00:24:57,119 --> 00:24:58,760 Speaker 1: I think it was just to talk about how to 405 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:02,639 Speaker 1: raise money for a LA right. Right. This was the 406 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:08,960 Speaker 1: year of the jay Z Solange elevator showdown.

I mean that kind of 460 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:26,199 Speaker 1: took up all the oxygen. It was the end of 461 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 1: the year, but still it was like such a huge deal. 462 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 1: I saw it in Japan. That was dope. It was 463 00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:36,040 Speaker 1: the first time her majesty came with me to Japan. 464 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 1: And then when they remember that she got up out 465 00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,880 Speaker 1: of her seat. But in Japan you sit through the credits. 466 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: Shouldn't a lot of film there because it was just 467 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 1: an audible gasp throughout the like she has hemorrhoids. I'm 468 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 1: sorry she had to get up, but more just like 469 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 1: you know, it's like, oh, but the film, the picture 470 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,360 Speaker 1: has not ended, so we will see the credits and 471 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 1: everyone who worked on it, and then you will leave 472 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 1: some respect.

Yeah, 481 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:30,240 Speaker 1: and she's not an action film editor, and like a 482 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:32,960 Speaker 1: lot of people who are like like more editing nerds 483 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 1: are like, yeah, that's what's really cool is like the 484 00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 1: timing style of very differently and also like the central 485 00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,959 Speaker 1: focal point in all the shots like another sort of 486 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 1: cinematic device that they used a lot, And it wasn't 487 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 1: like I started reading more analysis of it that I 488 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,320 Speaker 1: was like, oh, I'm realizing how it operated in many 489 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: other ways aside like yeah, that's a very rich text, 490 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 1: Like that movie was like made for the internet. Like 491 00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 1: both in terms of what you're talking about, and in 492 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 1: terms of just if you like look at a shot 493 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,080 Speaker 1: and there's like all these things hidden in there, like 494 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 1: that is an old eight seven trans am, like a 495 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 1: piece of there's just all sorts of dope stuff. And 496 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 1: then like the writings on the literal writing on the 497 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 1: wall and some of the scenes. This was I guess 498 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 1: a successful movie year. Jurassic World came out that year, 499 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: which was a monster hit The Martian, which I feel 500 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,960 Speaker 1: like The Martian was huge at the time, and I 501 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,360 Speaker 1: don't know, I never think about that movie ever. You're 502 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 1: not you're not popping that one in. I'm not popping 503 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:32,120 Speaker 1: that well, I'm not popping any of these in, but 504 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 1: I don't think about it anymore like I will. The 505 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:38,640 Speaker 1: one thing I'll pop in is the border scene from Cicario. Yeah, 506 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,360 Speaker 1: Cicario I think is enhanced. I think Cicario is like 507 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: kind of iconic. It's just that right, It's the when 508 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:48,240 Speaker 1: they're driving in the city. It's just that one track 509 00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 1: I think it's called the Beast or something, and you're 510 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 1: like that movie was dope, the big short kind of 511 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 1: I think because him somewhat iconic, iconic. I don't know, 512 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,200 Speaker 1: maybe not. It definitely like was one of those films 513 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 1: where it's simplified the financial crisis a little bit for people, right, Yeah, 514 00:31:11,280 --> 00:31:14,880 Speaker 1: I think it. Yeah, there was reading was it Margot 515 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,240 Speaker 1: Robbie where they're like and now Margot Robbie in bath 516 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:20,400 Speaker 1: bathtub explains this to you. Yeah. I mean it was 517 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 1: Adam McKay's first like successful dramatic movie. Um, but yeah, 518 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 1: maybe maybe not iconic. I guess the financial crisis is iconic, 519 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 1: and it was the first thing that like fully kind 520 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:39,560 Speaker 1: of made that breakthrough. So iconic financial crisis. Yeah, it's 521 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 1: legacy have never recovered from it. Iconic iconic Avengers age 522 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:53,040 Speaker 1: of Ultron is diminished, I would say, And like I 523 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 1: feel like that was not a movie anyone everything. Yeah 524 00:31:56,560 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 1: it's a guy. Yeah, it was a series of it 525 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 1: was like the Internet became sentient. Oh really. Yeah. It 526 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 1: was dumb as fun. Considered the worst of the Avengers 527 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: films probably yeah, because it's the second one. So there's 528 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 1: first Avengers, which like invented the whole thing and was 529 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 1: written by Josh Sweden, just Sweden, Uh, and it was 530 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 1: a lot of fun. But then I think this one 531 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 1: was made by Josh Sweden, too and just wasn't good. Uh. 532 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 1: And then there was Captain America Winter Soldier wasn't that 533 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 1: this year I'm taking a Civil War, which was essentially 534 00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 1: an Avengers movie. And then yeah, oh the cycle right 535 00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:45,440 Speaker 1: Creed came out this year, iconic, straight out of Compton 536 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 1: icon it, dude, straight out of marketing ideas. After that, 537 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:55,960 Speaker 1: I know, seriously, Fifty Shades of Gray, Oh, ship, that 538 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 1: was the first you first came out. That was the 539 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:02,040 Speaker 1: year the movie came out. Yeah, I guess, like was 540 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 1: when the bas everywhere? I know, I did not. I've 541 00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,920 Speaker 1: not seen it either, but I did see fifty Shades 542 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,640 Speaker 1: gray or there are fifty more shades.

But hey, you know, you 615 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:16,279 Speaker 1: know he's just being honest.
