And today it is 4 00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:13,040 Speaker 1: the Oscar episode. The nominations came out last week and 5 00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:15,800 Speaker 1: I got all my notes here. We're gonna predict the Oscars. 6 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,759 Speaker 1: You're ready for it. Also going to talk about some snubs, 7 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 1: some surprises. We'll get into a Best Picture nominee review. 8 00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:25,479 Speaker 1: Really excited for this week's episode, So let's waste no 9 00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 1: time and let's get started. In a world where everyone 10 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 1: and their mother has a podcast, one man stands to 11 00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:35,920 Speaker 1: infiltrate the ears of listeners like never before in a 12 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:40,600 Speaker 1: movie podcast. A man with so much movie knowledge, he's 13 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 1: basically like a walking I MTV which glasses from the 14 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 1: Nashville Podcast Networking Movie Movie Podcast. All right, I am 15 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 1: excited for this episode. The Oscars are basically like my 16 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 1: super Bowl. I look forward to them every single year. 17 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 1: And this year has just been a really weird year 18 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 1: for film because everything's been adapting to the way we 19 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,839 Speaker 1: watch movies. Now the Oscars have been delayed. It's gonna 20 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 1: be a weird award show. And what I think, I 21 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 1: love about the Oscars. I don't think we're going to 22 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,839 Speaker 1: see this year because I like seeing all the celebrities 23 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:18,399 Speaker 1: and all the actors, not only altogether at once, but 24 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: these are people you don't really see out a whole lot. 25 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 1: They're famous, and you don't really get that kind of 26 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,040 Speaker 1: view of them all together. You get moments like the 27 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,480 Speaker 1: Ellen thing where they all take that big selfie, and 28 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 1: I think that's why I like the Oscars so much 29 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,800 Speaker 1: more so than the Grammys. So and also I watched 30 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:36,399 Speaker 1: all these movies and I'm like, all right, I think 31 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: I have this down. So I've narrowed it down to 32 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 1: the top eight categories. I think we could go on 33 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: and on going into all the other categories, but I 34 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 1: think these are the eight that we look for every 35 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 1: single year. And we'll work backwards, starting first with original song, 36 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 1: and we are doing our Oscar picks, So Kelsey, my 37 00:01:54,320 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 1: fiance and co host, we'll read the award category, the nominees, 38 00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: and then I will give my pick here on the 39 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: Oscar episode, starting first with the original song. Who you 40 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,360 Speaker 1: have over there? All right? We have a fight for 41 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: you from Judas and the Black Messiah, So that's by her. 42 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: Else we have in there hear my voice from the 43 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:38,519 Speaker 1: Trial of the Chicago Seven. Yeh man, all right, we 44 00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:43,080 Speaker 1: have Husivic from Eurovision Song Contest, the Story of Fire, 45 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 1: Saga World. What else are we having here? Seen from 46 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: the life ahead? Send me? And lastly speak now from 47 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: one Night in Miami. I think this is an interesting 48 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 1: category this year, mainly because Will Ferrell was nominated and 49 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: I was listening to all these songs as I was 50 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: loading them in, and really that's the one that stick 51 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: out to me like this sounds like it could win 52 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: the Eurovision Song mainly because I think out of all 53 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: those it's the best put together song. And just for 54 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 1: that movie to be nominated for Will Fare to get 55 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: a nomination, I think that has a little bit of 56 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 1: weight to it. And then all the other one, I 57 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: mean best Original Song. For me, I don't think there's 58 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: been a great one in years. One that I was 59 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: like that, without a doubt, deserves to win. I feel 60 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: like movies really don't have the greatest songs written for 61 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: them anymore. Like back in the day, I felt like 62 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: it was a lot more prominent to have a movie, 63 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 1: like have a song written for a movie to be 64 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 1: the title song and then go on to win an Oscar. 65 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:17,919 Speaker 1: I don't feel like we've had that in a long time, 66 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: and I don't think any of these other songs are it. 67 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 1: So I'm going with the song from Eurovision Song Contest, 68 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 1: mainly because it's a movie about that. So I'm going 69 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 1: with that one. That is my pick for Best Original Song. 70 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,720 Speaker 1: All right, Next category Animated Feature Film, we have Onward 71 00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:38,599 Speaker 1: over the Moon, a Sean the Sheet movie, Farmageddon, Soul, 72 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 1: and Wolflocker's Okay. They won the Golden Globe, so I 73 00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: think this is an easy one. I think it's gonna 74 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 1: be Soul without a doubt. I think that's the movie 75 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: that kind of transcended not only being a Pixar movie 76 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: that kids like, but also a lot of adults. I 77 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: almost think that more adults like Soul than kids did. 78 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: I online pretty much older because I saw her from adults. Again, 79 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: I probably wouldn't see kids now that I think about 80 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: it reviewing it. Yeah, kids don't have they haven't had 81 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:09,080 Speaker 1: an existential crisis yet, they haven't hit their mid twenties. 82 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 1: They haven't hit that, which I felt that movie really 83 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: wasn't a kids movie. It dealt with things that I 84 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: think now adults are dealing with, so that's kind of 85 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 1: why it resonated with people so much. And I think 86 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: that's the easy shoe in for animated feature films. So 87 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:27,600 Speaker 1: that is my pick onto the next category, Alright, Actress 88 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 1: and a supporting rule Maria Bakalova Borat subsequent movie film 89 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 1: Glenn Close and Hillbilly Elegy, Olivia Coleman and The Father, 90 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 1: Amanda say Fried and Mink and Yon You Young in Minari. 91 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 1: I think it's a really strong category, Like, I don't 92 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 1: think Hill Billy Elogy was a well received film all 93 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 1: the way around, and I think that's not really good 94 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 1: to win Glenn Close for that one, and I feel 95 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: like Borat being in there, like I'm surprised that movie 96 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: gets dominated as much as it did because it's such 97 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,479 Speaker 1: a ridiculous movie to be nominated for an Oscar. I 98 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 1: think it's cool to see, but I don't really see 99 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:13,800 Speaker 1: Borat winning many Oscars this year if any, Manari was 100 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: really good, but I don't feel like her role in 101 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: that was an outstanding supporting role. So I'm thinking I'm 102 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 1: in between Amanda Sea Freed and Olivia Coleman and basing 103 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: it on Olivia Coleman being such a prominent actress. I 104 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 1: really liked her in The Favorite. I'm going with her 105 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,359 Speaker 1: in The Father to win this one. I think she 106 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: has it. That is my pick for actress in a 107 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: supporting role. Moving on now to the next category. What 108 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: do we got actor in the supporting role? Sasha Baron 109 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: Cohen for the Trial of the Chicago Seven, Daniel Kaluya 110 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: Judas in The Black Messiah, Leslie Odom Jr. One Night 111 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: in Miami, Paul Racey Sound of Metal, and l Keith 112 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: Stanfield Judas in The Black Messiah. An interesting category because 113 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: you have two people from Judas into Black Messiah who 114 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,039 Speaker 1: both did a really great job in that movie. And 115 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,599 Speaker 1: sometimes I get confused myself why they put basically the 116 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 1: two main characters from a movie both in a supporting role. 117 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: Like it's kind of weird how they determine like a 118 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: supporting role when really they were both the main characters 119 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: I guess overall and the story of that movie they 120 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: both support each other. I feel like they both could 121 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: have been nominated for Best Actor, really, so I feel 122 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: like that's gonna kind of hurt them that the votes 123 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 1: get split there for June in the Black Messiah. But 124 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: I think they both kind of deserve to win again. 125 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 1: I don't think Sasha Barry Cohen is gonna win anything. 126 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: I mean, he's nominated for Borad and well, I guess 127 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: Borad is nominated, and he's nominated for a Trial of 128 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 1: Chicago seven. I thought he was great in that. He 129 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 1: was funny, but I don't think that's Oscar worthy. Paul 130 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: Racey was good and sounded metal. I mean, I think 131 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: it goes to Daniel Kalua. He was so good in 132 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,239 Speaker 1: that movie, and I think he was just a little 133 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: bit better than Lakeith Stanfield and that. So I'm going 134 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 1: with Dan here. I think he's gonna win. I feel 135 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 1: really good about that pick too, all right. Next category, 136 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: Actress in a leading role, Viola Davis, Ma Rainey's Black Bottom, 137 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 1: Andre Day The United States versus Billy Holiday, Vanessa Kirby, 138 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: Pieces of a Woman, Francis McDormand, Nomad Land and Carrie 139 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: mulligan Promising Young Woman. I feel like this one comes 140 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 1: down to two people, Carrie mulligan and Promising Young Woman 141 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: and Francis McDormand and Nomad Land. And I kind of 142 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 1: feel like Francis McDorman is the Tom Brady of Oscars 143 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,439 Speaker 1: right now, Like you like, she only makes movies that 144 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:41,719 Speaker 1: get nominated for Oscars, and I feel like almost it's 145 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: a little bit of Oscar bait to put her in 146 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 1: a movie, so I really can't go against her. Although 147 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,160 Speaker 1: I really like Carrie mulligan and promising young Woman, which 148 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,560 Speaker 1: we'll get into that full review later. I think she 149 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:55,199 Speaker 1: was just such a strong actress in that and that 150 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: character had such a unique range from being so vulnerable 151 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: at moments when she's falling in love in that movie 152 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 1: and then being so kind of like such a strong 153 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 1: driven woman to go out with her plan in that movie. 154 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:14,839 Speaker 1: I feel like she had great range in that movie. 155 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 1: I just don't feel like the Oscars would vote for 156 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 1: her in that way. So just because she's a favorite 157 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:23,680 Speaker 1: and it was also a good movie, Like I'm not 158 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 1: even down playing that, but I think it's Francis McDorman here. 159 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 1: I think she wins an Oscar next category. Okay, Actor 160 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 1: in a leading role, riis a MODD sound of metal, 161 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 1: Chadwick Boseman, Ma Rainey's Black Bottom, Anthony Hopkins, The Father, 162 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 1: Gary Oldman, Mink, and Steven June Minari. This is a 163 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: really strong leading Role category. Now, I don't think any 164 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 1: of these people are what I would consider a list 165 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,280 Speaker 1: actors across the board like household names, aside from maybe 166 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: Chadwick Boseman. But they all had really great movies this year, 167 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 1: and it's it's almost hard to pick because they're so close. 168 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 1: And what I determined was that I think they're going 169 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 1: to honor Chadwick Boseman and have him win the Oscar 170 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 1: for this, which he deserves it, and I think nobody 171 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:17,080 Speaker 1: else had that outstanding in a performance in this category, 172 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: and when you kind of rank them up all on 173 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 1: the board like that, I think you got to give 174 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 1: it to Chadwick Boseman. And I think that would be 175 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 1: a really special moment in the award show. I could 176 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:28,719 Speaker 1: see that being like a really emotional moment, like I 177 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 1: would watch the Oscars alone to see him win and 178 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: somebody accept the Oscar on his behalf. And I think 179 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: that's what they're going to go for. So I'm going 180 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 1: with Chadwick Boseman as Best Actor. And I don't think 181 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 1: anybody's ever one Best Actor before who has passed away. 182 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 1: I know Heath Ledger one, but that was best for 183 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,079 Speaker 1: Best Supporting Actor when he played the Joker and got 184 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 1: an Oscar for that, so I think that would be 185 00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 1: cool to see. So I'm going with Chadwick Boseman. We 186 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,199 Speaker 1: have two more categories. Hit me with that. Next one 187 00:10:54,559 --> 00:11:00,319 Speaker 1: Best Director Thomas Vinterberg another round, David Fincher, Mink Lee, 188 00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:04,200 Speaker 1: Isaac Chung Manari Chloe Jow No Madland, and Emerald Finnel 189 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,959 Speaker 1: Promising Young Woman, which I love that there are two women. 190 00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: I know, two women here and two great movies. I 191 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 1: think the two best movies in this category are directed 192 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: by women. Chloe Jow Like I watching behind the scenes 193 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: of her making that movie, and I really love the 194 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: way she really takes her craft seriously and all the 195 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:26,959 Speaker 1: intricate details she put into that movie. And I think 196 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: she's just a beloved director right now, more so than 197 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 1: all the other people in this category. And I think 198 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: that movie is good to sweep. Like, I know it 199 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 1: doesn't have the most nominations, but I feel like that 200 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,199 Speaker 1: is an Oscar worthy movie. So I'm going with her 201 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: for Best Director. That's my pick alright, final category, the 202 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 1: biggest one of the night, Best Picture. My favorite thing 203 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 1: to watch in the award show every year, just because 204 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 1: whenever you win Best Picture. It's mainly people arguing like 205 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 1: how did that movie win Best Picture? And then everybody 206 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 1: goes to watch it and comple It's like that wasn't 207 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,199 Speaker 1: the best movie. It should have been Sonic the Hedgehog 208 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 1: or something. And I just love to see it because 209 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: it's just fun. And it's weird to rank a movie 210 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 1: as Best Picture. And I think what people don't get. 211 00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 1: It's not the most watched movie. It's not the most 212 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 1: like highest box office. It's the most novel movie. Like 213 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: who did the best job at making a movie in 214 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 1: a way that nobody has done before or a story 215 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:29,079 Speaker 1: that hasn't been told. That is what the best picture is. 216 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 1: So that said, what are the movies in the category 217 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 1: Best Picture? The Father, Judas in the Black Messiah, mank Minari, 218 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,319 Speaker 1: No Mad Land, Promising Young Woman, Sound of Metal in 219 00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 1: The Trial of the Chicago Seven. A pretty strong category 220 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 1: this year. Like, out of all these movies, the one 221 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: I was the most hype while I was watching that, 222 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,520 Speaker 1: It wasn't expecting it was probably Judas in the Black Messiah. 223 00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 1: Like at a point of that movie, I was like, 224 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: this is one of the greatest movies I've seen in 225 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:58,960 Speaker 1: a while. To the point where I like stood up 226 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 1: and walked around the room because it was so intense. 227 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 1: I really like Minori because while it was a simple, 228 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 1: simple story of just like a family living out the 229 00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: American dream, it was so well done and it was 230 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,640 Speaker 1: just kind of an easy movie to watch with a 231 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 1: really great story that I really enjoyed it. I don't 232 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 1: think it's best picture worthy, though, promising Young Woman again, 233 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 1: which we'll get into our full review later. I think 234 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 1: we both liked that movie a lot more than we 235 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 1: were expecting to write. I just don't know if it's 236 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: Best picture worthy. And then Sound of Metal was really 237 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: an interesting movie, Like the whole premise of that is 238 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: what made me want to watch it. It's about a 239 00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 1: drummer who loses his hearing while he's out on tour 240 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 1: with his band, and then he goes and tries to 241 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 1: learn how to be deaf and then get it sound 242 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 1: like get it hearing back and still be a drummer. 243 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 1: A really interesting story and that The Trial of Chicago 244 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 1: seven was also really great, and it's been a while 245 00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: since that movie came out, so I think that also 246 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 1: hurts it a little bit, which is weird this year 247 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 1: because usually Awards season is like right in like November 248 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:06,960 Speaker 1: and December is when all the movies come out that 249 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 1: are going to be nominated for Best Picture. But since 250 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 1: the awards have been delayed, it's just kind of a 251 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,199 Speaker 1: weird place that some of these movies came out so 252 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:16,079 Speaker 1: long ago then now we've got to kind of remember 253 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: how good they were. And I think the one that 254 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 1: fits perfect in that is No man Land because it 255 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 1: came out on Hulu last month. It's kind of right 256 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: there in that window. I think it has the most 257 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 1: heat on it. Again, Francis McDorman, I don't bet against her, 258 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: So Best Picture, I'm going with No man Land. I 259 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: just even just watching the trailer for that movie, I like, 260 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 1: I knew like this was gonna be worthy of an 261 00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 1: Oscar and I feel like sometimes they come out with 262 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 1: these kind of Oscar bait movies to where you can 263 00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 1: just tell from the trailer that that's what they're going for, 264 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:50,080 Speaker 1: and I think that's that's it. It's gonna be No 265 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 1: man Land. So that is my vote for Best Picture. 266 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: That is who I think will win this year, and 267 00:14:56,520 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 1: we'll see how I rank when the awards happen. We'll 268 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 1: come back and talk about some of the snubs and 269 00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 1: surprises from the category, and then later we'll get into 270 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: our review of Promising Young Woman. All right, back here, 271 00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: talking about the Oscar nominations today, let's talk about some 272 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: snubs and surprises. I think the biggest snub was probably 273 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,640 Speaker 1: that The Five Bloods did not get nominated for Best Picture. 274 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 1: I thought that was a shoeing to get a nomination 275 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 1: another Chadwick Boseman role, and I was surprised not to 276 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: see that, And also that Spike Jones was nominated, like 277 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 1: he wasn't nominated for Best Director was also surprising to me. 278 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 1: And I guess the fact that, I mean Chadwick Boseman 279 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 1: only got one nomination. I felt like this was his 280 00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 1: year that I mean, three of his movies came out. 281 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 1: I feel like you should have got more nominations. I 282 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 1: felt like that was a bit of a snub to him. 283 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 1: Another one for me was Palm Springs did not get 284 00:15:56,280 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 1: any nominations, which I love that movie. And you're rolling 285 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: your eyes with me again, right, you loved that. I 286 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 1: didn't feel like anything about that movie was Oscar worthy. 287 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: I just thought it was such a different comedy and 288 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,760 Speaker 1: it was so kind of like it just had. I mean, 289 00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 1: it was nominated for Golden Globes, didn't win there. I 290 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,640 Speaker 1: just thought it was like that movie's chance and Andy 291 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 1: Sanmdberg's chance to get an Oscar nomination. I was gonna say, 292 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 1: you talk about oscar bait. I feel like putting Andy 293 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 1: Samberg in a movie doesn't. That's not oscar bait. It's 294 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: the opposite of So the fact that it was getting 295 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 1: some recognition from the other award shows I thought it 296 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 1: would get something here, and I bet he was a 297 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: bit bummed. Ally, it kind of reminded me last year 298 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 1: when I loved Uncut Gem so much and Adam Sandler 299 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 1: didn't get nominated. So I feel the same way about 300 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 1: Andy Sanmdberg. I mean, I don't think he's really chasing 301 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: an Oscar like Adam Sandler is, but I feel like 302 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 1: he came so close. I mean, it's it's hard to do. 303 00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: So I felt like he would have Texas twice Texas. 304 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 1: Tell you what I think Andy Sandberg should have been 305 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 1: nominated for an Oscar right there, I'll tell you what. Anyway, 306 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,440 Speaker 1: I felt that was a pretty big snub. And then 307 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,399 Speaker 1: the other thing for me is that was such a 308 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 1: weird year for movies, and there, I mean a weird 309 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: hear from many things. It was just weird for them. 310 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 1: I mean, I couldn't go to the movies. What a year. 311 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,680 Speaker 1: But it was such a weird year for everything that 312 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 1: I felt the Oscar nomination should have reflected that. And 313 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 1: I feel like when we go back and look. I 314 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: don't know if other people do this, but I do 315 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 1: this that I go back and look at different years 316 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: of what was nominated for Best Picture and what one 317 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 1: just to kind of get a an idea how the 318 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,960 Speaker 1: trends change in movies. I don't think anyone else here 319 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,439 Speaker 1: is doing that. Well, that's what I do. I'll go 320 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:51,680 Speaker 1: back and look at like the year I was borne 321 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:54,840 Speaker 1: and see what movies were up for Best Picture. Dances 322 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:56,679 Speaker 1: with Wolves, by the way, it's one next year if 323 00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:01,480 Speaker 1: you're wondering. But I felt like the nomination should have 324 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 1: reflected what the year was. And I feel like Sonic 325 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 1: the Hedgehog should have got a nomination for something because 326 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 1: at the time when that movie came out, we've joked 327 00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 1: about that, I know, but it was the only new 328 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:20,920 Speaker 1: movie for a long time, and I think looking back 329 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,880 Speaker 1: in history, we should remember something like that, like, why 330 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 1: was Sonic the Hedgehog nominated for this year? Oh, it's 331 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:28,880 Speaker 1: because there was a global pandemic going on and movie 332 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 1: theaters basically shut down along with everything around the world. 333 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 1: We have Boorat nominated instead. There you go, I mean 334 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,400 Speaker 1: that's yeah, I guess that is the compromise there. It's 335 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:42,120 Speaker 1: weird that a Borett movie is nominated for any kind 336 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 1: of oscar, So that would have been a stuff if 337 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:48,160 Speaker 1: it didn't get nominated either. So that's what I felt like, 338 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: we're the biggest snubs of the Oscars. Some surprises were 339 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,880 Speaker 1: Amanda Sea Free had got her very first OSCAR nomination 340 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:57,920 Speaker 1: from MANK. How do you say her name? I think 341 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,240 Speaker 1: it's State Freed, she said. I feel like she's had 342 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: a different interviews that I've looked at before. I know, 343 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:04,880 Speaker 1: there's one thing where she complains of like people saying 344 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 1: her name wrong. Safe read. I think, so Sea Freed, 345 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:12,719 Speaker 1: Amanda sayf Reed, cyd you could say it actually might 346 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 1: even be cy Fred. I feel like she's gonna say 347 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:16,840 Speaker 1: it many times that it doesn't sound right. There was 348 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 1: an interview she did that she said even her sister 349 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 1: said her name wrong, so she doesn't need her family, 350 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,680 Speaker 1: doesn't even know how to pronounce his name. Apparently, I'll 351 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:26,359 Speaker 1: be quiet over here. But I just thought that that 352 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 1: was interesting, her very first Oscar nomination. And then mainly 353 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 1: the biggest surprise I thought was that Will Ferrell got 354 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 1: a nomination for the fire song. What's that movie called? 355 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:43,680 Speaker 1: The Eurovision movie? So I think that's a really kind 356 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:47,359 Speaker 1: of out there nomination for him. I don't feel like 357 00:19:47,359 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 1: there were any other huge surprises. I felt like it 358 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,639 Speaker 1: was a little okay, this is kind of what we 359 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,640 Speaker 1: saw coming. When you total up the nominations, mank has 360 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 1: the most at ten nominations, followed by The Father, Judas 361 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: In The Black Messiah, Manari No It Lands Down the Middle, 362 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 1: and The Trial of Chicago Seven are all tied with six. 363 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 1: I think the only other real surprise is that Tom 364 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:12,399 Speaker 1: Hanks wasn't nominated for anything for News of the World, 365 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:16,640 Speaker 1: which I mean wasn't his best movie. But I mean, 366 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 1: what about the other Tom Hanks. When we watched Oh, Greyhounds, Oh, 367 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 1: that he should be nominated for a Razzie, He's not 368 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 1: nominated for that one. I mean, he was probably the 369 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:28,439 Speaker 1: best part of that movie, but that movie was pretty terrible, 370 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:32,679 Speaker 1: But yeah, I think it was interesting that he wasn't nominated, 371 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 1: or that News of the World wasn't nominated, because I 372 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:39,880 Speaker 1: think when you have the Oscars, you want these big celebrities, 373 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 1: in these big movie stars to go to the awards 374 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: so that people watch. But nobody's going this year. Yeah, 375 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: but I think it's happened first and to other people. 376 00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 1: I kind of like that with the Golden Globes that 377 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,600 Speaker 1: people zoomed in at least for the when they announced 378 00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 1: the winners. Like my favorite was probably Jeff Daniel chill 379 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 1: in a normal bedroom with like these normal white doors 380 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 1: behind them, in like a straight up but just like 381 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,399 Speaker 1: in the suburbs. Yeah, I bel like he was at 382 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 1: a friend's house doing that. He's like, my internet is 383 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:17,639 Speaker 1: not working. Meanwhile everybody else is like in mansions. Jason 384 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 1: Bateman was like in Jennifer Anniston's like dining room, Mark 385 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,399 Speaker 1: Ruffalo is in like his kitchen, kids popped in. Hey, 386 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 1: Jeff Daniels was in the spare bedroom. So I don't know. 387 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:34,199 Speaker 1: I think that will make this award show probably the 388 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 1: lowest rated, just like the Grammys where this past what 389 00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 1: week or two ago that they came on so, and 390 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 1: I think the Oscars are also kind of watch if 391 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:46,199 Speaker 1: you're not a big movie fan because there's no musical performances. 392 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 1: They're long to into some of those award categories where 393 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 1: you like, I want to like respect the person for 394 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,560 Speaker 1: their craft and honor them, but I have no clue 395 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: what this is for. Yeah, yeah, I mean they have 396 00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: the sound mixing the award on the air that would 397 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 1: enjoy I do enjoy that, but that other people don't 398 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:07,240 Speaker 1: want to see that, And I guess in the past 399 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 1: few years they have worked in some musical performances, like 400 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 1: when Lady Gaga and Braley Cooper did Shallow, so I 401 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 1: think they need more of that. But again, with the 402 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 1: songs nominated this year, where do you gonna have Will 403 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 1: Ferrell come out there? So that's why that category is 404 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 1: so hard because there's not really big artists. I mean, 405 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 1: her who just Wanted Grammy is nominated, But other than that, 406 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,119 Speaker 1: who are you gonna have go up there and perform? 407 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 1: It's a it's a hard thing to do for them. 408 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:34,200 Speaker 1: So I'm already anticipating that the headline comes out after 409 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:38,680 Speaker 1: they air that will be the lowest rated Oscars ever, 410 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:40,640 Speaker 1: And then the people saying that we should stop doing them. 411 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 1: I think you keep doing them. They're also so long. 412 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:45,040 Speaker 1: They are the Grammys were long. We were looking at 413 00:22:45,119 --> 00:22:47,120 Speaker 1: each other like, is three and a half hours we're 414 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 1: gonna be over? I feel like they should do an 415 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 1: hour and just do I mean like we did the 416 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,680 Speaker 1: eight categories. You can do those in an hour, hour 417 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 1: and a half tops. That's really the ones that people 418 00:22:55,560 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 1: want to see. So anyway, the Oscars are on a 419 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: on ABC, so we'll be watching along with our little 420 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 1: score sheets, and that is our Oscar talk. So speaking 421 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:12,119 Speaker 1: of Oscars, we will talk about an Oscar nominated movie 422 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 1: now in our movie review. We're gonna be talking about 423 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:19,439 Speaker 1: Promising Young Woman, a movie that we were both like, wow, 424 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 1: that was really good when it was over. So again, 425 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:25,120 Speaker 1: we are spoiler free on this podcast. Won't ruin anything 426 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,920 Speaker 1: that will take away from you watching this. Later, we'll 427 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 1: just talk about the overall what we thought about the movie, 428 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:34,159 Speaker 1: some plot points that you would just get from watching 429 00:23:34,160 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 1: a trailer about it. That's it. Don't worry. We're not 430 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:38,880 Speaker 1: gonna ruin this movie for you, especially because it's nominated. 431 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:41,359 Speaker 1: But before we get into this review, here's just a 432 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 1: little bit of the trailer, I go to a club, 433 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:50,479 Speaker 1: I act like I'm too drunk to stand and every 434 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 1: week a nice guy comes over to see if I'm okay. Okay, 435 00:23:55,240 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 1: who are so pretty? I'm a nice guy, are you? So? 436 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 1: This movie is a movie about revenge. It's a young 437 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:11,160 Speaker 1: woman who was traumatized by a tragic events in her 438 00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 1: past that happened to her friend, and you end up 439 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 1: learning more and more about her as the movie goes along. 440 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 1: So it's kind of a mystery in a sense of 441 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 1: like why exactly is she doing the things she's doing 442 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 1: in this movie, But basically she is seeking out vengeance 443 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 1: for what happened to her friend and kind of going 444 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,920 Speaker 1: and finding all the people associated with what happened to her. 445 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 1: And I'm trying to not to give away a lot 446 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:35,119 Speaker 1: about the movie, because I think this is one that 447 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 1: you can go into not knowing a whole lot about 448 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 1: and really enjoy it. Right, I knew nothing. I wasn't 449 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 1: even gonna watch it with you. Yeah, I was like, 450 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna watch this movie because it's nominated, because also 451 00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:46,640 Speaker 1: because I may be able to interview Bo Burnham, who 452 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 1: was in the movie, And I'm like, I gotta watch it, 453 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,120 Speaker 1: and you were like, Okay, I'll watch it with you, 454 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:53,120 Speaker 1: and you're really only watched because I woke up earlier 455 00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,959 Speaker 1: this morning, so I do a thing called Saturday Morning Cinema, 456 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:57,920 Speaker 1: which every Saturday morning, I just watched a new movie. 457 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 1: And you were laying, I'm already up, I'll read my 458 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: book while you're watching this. In about twenty minutes into it, 459 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,200 Speaker 1: you were totally in. I was no longer reading my book. 460 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,640 Speaker 1: You were totally into this movie. So what kind of 461 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 1: grabbed your attention was? At first the cast, because it 462 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:12,919 Speaker 1: doesn't have a great cast. That has an amazing cast, 463 00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,359 Speaker 1: and it has like a it's that dark humor. I 464 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 1: found myself laughing at parts, and then I was like, 465 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 1: where is this going? And I just couldn't stop watching 466 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: it is. Yes, it has some dark humor and it's 467 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,439 Speaker 1: almost I thought it was gonna be a bit of 468 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 1: like a horror movie, just have those elements, because at 469 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 1: the very beginning the first scene, you're like, what is 470 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: she you about to do in this entire movie? But 471 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 1: it ends up being somebody who was so kind of 472 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:42,399 Speaker 1: hurt by what happened to her friend and just wanted 473 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 1: to see justice. And I think it's a great revenge 474 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: movie and done in such a way that, like I 475 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 1: didn't know what was going to happen until the very end, 476 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 1: and even then you're like, holy grab, like that was amazing. 477 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 1: So what did you like about it? Again, I'm always 478 00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 1: trying to think how not to spoil things. I thought 479 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 1: it was really well written, yes, And think that's it 480 00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 1: the writing the story, like it keeps you guessing but 481 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:09,440 Speaker 1: answers questions like I would ask a question and like 482 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 1: ten minutes later would answer it. So it answers your questions, 483 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 1: but in a way that like keeps you engaged and 484 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 1: like wanting to know more. I think that is what 485 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:22,160 Speaker 1: sometimes movies like this get wrong to where they bring 486 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:24,879 Speaker 1: up a lot of points that never get answered, or 487 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:27,439 Speaker 1: there's just something about them that at the very end 488 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:28,919 Speaker 1: you're like, well, then why did she do this? At 489 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 1: the beginning, this when I felt it answered every single 490 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 1: question and has one of the most satisfying endings of 491 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:36,480 Speaker 1: a movie that I've seen in a very long time. 492 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:38,200 Speaker 1: Like I love it when you can finish a movie 493 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 1: and you're like, you know what, there's nothing in that 494 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,640 Speaker 1: movie that I would have done differently, And I think 495 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 1: it's also attributed to the lead in this movie, Carrie Mulligan, 496 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:51,640 Speaker 1: who's married to Marcus Mumford. It's fun fact you love 497 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 1: celebrity couples. I don't know why I know so much 498 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 1: about this. You know about who is married to who? Again, 499 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 1: like last week we were talking about Paul Bettany and 500 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 1: he is married to Jennifer Connelly. So there you go. 501 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 1: You're like an encyclopedia of celebrity couples. So there's a game. Okay, 502 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,440 Speaker 1: there you go, who's married, who's married to who? You'll 503 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 1: be great at that. But it does have just such 504 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 1: a great cast, from Adam Brody to also love him, Yeah, 505 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 1: Bo Burnaman, who I love he's a great comedian, to 506 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:24,639 Speaker 1: Laverne Cox, to Jennifer Coolidge in a very un Jennifer. 507 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 1: And there's Molly Shannon. There's a Christopher mince Plas who 508 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,359 Speaker 1: is mclovin in Super Bad. There's just a lot of 509 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: people in this movie to where there's also just that 510 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 1: aspect of it. I'm like, oh, yeah, this person, I 511 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 1: know them from that Connie Britten, I forgot about that. 512 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 1: There's also Max Greenfield from New Girl and Alison Bree. Yeah, 513 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 1: Like there's just an amazing cast. There's some I like 514 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 1: movies that have a big cast of people that you know, 515 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 1: which sometimes it's like, you know, like the four main people, 516 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: but then all the other people are extras. But this one, 517 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,680 Speaker 1: there's just so many people from all different like from TV, 518 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: from movies that are all in this movie. So that 519 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 1: makes it fun to watch. I think there's also a 520 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:05,680 Speaker 1: cool visual aspect to this movie to where the way 521 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:09,359 Speaker 1: she dresses and the way she kind of appears has 522 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 1: like a style to it. Yeah, even from her house, 523 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 1: like the core in her house has a specific style 524 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 1: to it to where I could tell that was like 525 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 1: purposefully done. So I really like that about it. So again, 526 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,360 Speaker 1: the overall plot of this movie is she dropped out 527 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:26,679 Speaker 1: of mid school early on because of the trauma of 528 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:29,640 Speaker 1: what happened to her best friend, and now she works 529 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:31,439 Speaker 1: at a coffee shop and what she does is she 530 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 1: goes out to clubs to meet men and she pretends 531 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 1: that she's intoxicated to trick them into thinking they can 532 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 1: take advantage of her. She goes home with them and 533 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 1: then kind of does the switcher rou of like hey, 534 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,120 Speaker 1: I'm actually not intoxicated and I'm revealing that you are 535 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: a total creep, And so she does that throughout the 536 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 1: movie and then uses those same tactics and other tactics 537 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 1: to find the people that you'll later learn the movie 538 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,640 Speaker 1: what happened to her best friend, but who were associated 539 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 1: with that, and does these things to put them in 540 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 1: situations to make them regret what they did and how 541 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 1: they reacted to her, and to know that she did 542 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 1: them wrong, she did their friend wrong, and now she's 543 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 1: out to get some revenge. So I just thought that 544 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 1: was a great premise. And there's some things that she 545 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 1: does in the movie that I'm like, holy crap, that 546 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 1: is awesome, like to put like, especially what she does 547 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 1: the Connie Britten's character in the movie. Yeah, that was intense. 548 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 1: That was like so like she's going above and beyond 549 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 1: to really make a point here. And I think it 550 00:29:34,720 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 1: wasn't that scene specifically that the movie kind of took 551 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,960 Speaker 1: a shift to where she was just doing things on 552 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 1: a kind of on one level, but took it to 553 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: a whole other level to where it kind of played 554 00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 1: on the rest of the movie to how intense she 555 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:51,560 Speaker 1: got calculated. Yes, and that was at a great point 556 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 1: in the movie, and I thought had a fantastic scene, 557 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 1: So I think it's it's worth it to watch, like 558 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 1: it's so much of a kind of psychological thriller. And 559 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 1: then you're watching the whole time and there's certain points 560 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 1: that you're like, holy crap, I can't believe that happened. 561 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 1: I can't believe this happened. And it will keep you 562 00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 1: entertained throughout. So what would you rate this movie? Four 563 00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 1: and a half out of five? Scalpels, Okay, I think 564 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 1: you were a little higher than me. I gave it 565 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 1: four out of five. But I also didn't know what 566 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 1: I was going into. Oh, so then I really liked it. 567 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 1: But I love going into a movie not really knowing 568 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:27,280 Speaker 1: what it is. Like if we're at home watching something, 569 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 1: I'm just kinda You're like, you want to watch this? 570 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 1: I'm like, cool, I have no clue what it's about, 571 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 1: but I'll watch it. I think there's something to that. 572 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 1: When you watch something without any expectation, not hearing any reviews, 573 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: sometimes you like it more. And I think that's why 574 00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 1: in the beginning, when certain movies come out and they 575 00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 1: build a hype around them to where there's a first 576 00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:44,680 Speaker 1: wave of people who go and see it and love 577 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 1: it and rate it very high, and there's a second 578 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 1: wave of people who go based on those reviews, and 579 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,760 Speaker 1: those are the movies that end up being dubbed is overhyped. 580 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 1: But I think when a movie is overhyped, it had 581 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 1: that initial like it was really great and it was 582 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 1: that good, but it can't meet that expectations once you 583 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 1: go into a movie knowing that somebody said this is 584 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: one of the great things you're ever going to see. 585 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: So I think we kind of fall to that sometimes 586 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 1: on reviews of like saying something he's overhyped. So I 587 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 1: went into it knowing it was already gonna be good. 588 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 1: I read some reviews about it, and now that it's 589 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:19,960 Speaker 1: been nominated, I know about that aspect of it, but 590 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 1: also I think there was other parts of it that 591 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 1: I know why some people wouldn't like it. So I 592 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 1: gave it the four out of five Nurse's Outfits that 593 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,520 Speaker 1: was my other rankings ranking system. So I think it's great. 594 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:36,000 Speaker 1: The only problem is now that all these Oscar movies 595 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 1: have been announced, some of them are available for you 596 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: to rent, and some of them are on streaming services. 597 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 1: So the other thing about this movie is we watched 598 00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 1: it a couple of weeks ago, and you couldn't rent 599 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 1: it yet, you had to buy it. So we now 600 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,680 Speaker 1: own this movie for twenty don't know that we're ever 601 00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 1: going to rewatch it. I don't think so. It's very 602 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 1: rare that I rewatch a movie now. But again, that's 603 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 1: like going to a movie. We would pay ten dollars 604 00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 1: or more for a ticket. That's how I see that 605 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 1: twenty the price. It's like buying a ticket at home 606 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 1: see it. So it's good that I watched it. Yes, 607 00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 1: we justify that, we justified the twenty bucks. But now 608 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 1: you can stream it and rent it or get it 609 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 1: on Blueberry, whatever you like to do. But we committed 610 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:14,600 Speaker 1: to the twenty bucks. I still think it was worth it. 611 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:16,800 Speaker 1: We won't pay twenty dollars for us. We haven't watched 612 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:21,200 Speaker 1: Barbon Star. Oh yeah, that's so Sometimes you gotta justify, 613 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 1: you know, a movie that's a comedy like that. Yeah, 614 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 1: I could probably wait till later to where it's like 615 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: a five buck four buck rental. But I'm glad we 616 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:32,120 Speaker 1: paid the twenty bucks to watch this movie. I think 617 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 1: it is worth it. If it was in theaters, I 618 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,000 Speaker 1: think I would have enjoyed it even more and probably 619 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 1: rate it even higher, but I did, like, I just 620 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 1: thought it was weird that that option wasn't available at 621 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,160 Speaker 1: that time. So I think with all these Oscar movies, 622 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:46,800 Speaker 1: they shouldn't really have that down by now. That's even 623 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 1: like a thing when when things were normal and movie 624 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 1: theaters were a thing, when the Oscars would come out 625 00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,960 Speaker 1: the nominations, it was hard to sometimes watch out of 626 00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 1: the movie because some would be in theater, some wouldn't, 627 00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 1: some would be like in between of like coming out 628 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 1: on DVD before you know, the Oscars actually were, and 629 00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 1: everything's kind of delayed now. But I think it should 630 00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,520 Speaker 1: all be available now once they're announce you should be 631 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,400 Speaker 1: able to go with stream and rent these movies. So 632 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:12,760 Speaker 1: they got to get that right. We we took the 633 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:14,880 Speaker 1: twenty dollar hits so we could come and recommend it 634 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 1: exactly public service we do here. But anyway, that is 635 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 1: what we think about promising young woman. All right, we'll 636 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 1: do a little bit of movie news to close out 637 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:27,240 Speaker 1: the podcast. My favorite headline from last week was probably 638 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 1: that Ace Venture or three is in development at Amazon 639 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,880 Speaker 1: from the same writers of Sonic the Hedgehog. How many 640 00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 1: times in this podcast could you talk about Sonic the Hedgehog. Oh, 641 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:38,560 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think I've met the quota for 642 00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:41,480 Speaker 1: this one, but I think that would be interesting. I 643 00:33:41,480 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 1: don't know if Jim Carrey is attached to it yet. 644 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 1: They haven't said, but it's just in development. And I 645 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:48,960 Speaker 1: know these stories come out very very early on about 646 00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:51,479 Speaker 1: movies being in development, but this is really only one 647 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:54,239 Speaker 1: that's got me excited in a while. I mean, just 648 00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:58,160 Speaker 1: because if they do get Jim carry back, I feel 649 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:00,080 Speaker 1: like this movie has a little bit of hope. I 650 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,560 Speaker 1: know they redid Dumb and Dumber with him and Jeff Daniels, 651 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:07,239 Speaker 1: which was terrible, but I don't know, there might be 652 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:10,080 Speaker 1: something there. And then also in movie news is the 653 00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 1: Zack Snyder cut of The Justice League came out last week, 654 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:16,000 Speaker 1: and I saw a bunch of people pretty much split 655 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 1: on the reviews on this, and I thought Justice League 656 00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 1: was an okay movie. The thing about that movie it 657 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,800 Speaker 1: was already pretty long at two and a half hours, 658 00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:27,439 Speaker 1: and now this Snyder cut is over four hours long, 659 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 1: so it's basically like a mini series of the movie. 660 00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,720 Speaker 1: But I was never excited for this, Like I felt, 661 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:37,719 Speaker 1: I don't really like movies to be that long. Anymore, 662 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 1: Like an hour and a half movie is like my 663 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:42,359 Speaker 1: sweet spot. If I could watch a really good movie 664 00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 1: in an hour and a half, it makes me love 665 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:47,759 Speaker 1: it even more. Two hours if it's really great, and 666 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:49,960 Speaker 1: then it has to be one of the best things 667 00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 1: I've ever seen to be over to twenty, it's got 668 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,480 Speaker 1: to be a Marvel movie. Mark. That's really the only 669 00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:57,920 Speaker 1: thing I wanted. Yeah, over to twenty is that's the 670 00:34:57,960 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 1: only thing that kind of means that qualifications like a 671 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 1: really big, high budget movie. But other than that, like 672 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 1: over two hours, I think that's the great thing about movies. 673 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 1: And what I love some about so much about him 674 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,319 Speaker 1: is the brevity of it. That you get an hour 675 00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 1: and a half, you're placed into this world and that's 676 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 1: where you live in that Now with TV shows and 677 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:21,359 Speaker 1: long form like this, like it's just going on and 678 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 1: on and on. I don't really like director's cuts, Like 679 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:26,799 Speaker 1: I don't really understand the appeal of that of like, oh, 680 00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 1: this is the way the director wanted the movie to 681 00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:34,040 Speaker 1: be seen. But I think what the craft of making 682 00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:37,240 Speaker 1: a movie is is cutting out all the extra stuff 683 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 1: that you don't need and the art of getting it 684 00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 1: down perfect to tell that story. Now, if you have 685 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:45,760 Speaker 1: unlimited time, then you're just you're not really making a movie. 686 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 1: It's I think it takes away from the filmmaking. And 687 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 1: I don't want to watch a superhero story to be 688 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 1: told over four hours. I don't think anyone wanted to 689 00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 1: see Ben Affleck as Batman for over four over four hours, 690 00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 1: So it's just weird to me that there's so much 691 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:02,959 Speaker 1: of a around this movie, and it wasn't that great 692 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:04,839 Speaker 1: of a movie to begin with. I don't think going 693 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:08,239 Speaker 1: back in and reshooting some scenes and putting it the 694 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:11,160 Speaker 1: way he wanted it to be put out, we'll really 695 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:13,720 Speaker 1: changed much. It's like taking a burnt piece of toast 696 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 1: and trying to scrape it off. It's still burnt toast. 697 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:19,719 Speaker 1: You know, my burnt toast analogy, It's quite an analogy. 698 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 1: That's That's how I feel about the Justice League Snyder cut. 699 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:26,640 Speaker 1: And then I also realized and forgot that I canceled 700 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 1: HBO Max because we really got into their TV shows 701 00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:34,399 Speaker 1: that came out over Christmas break. But since then there 702 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:37,360 Speaker 1: hasn't been anything great on there. And I now have 703 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 1: Paramount Plus, which there's not much great on there either. 704 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:43,480 Speaker 1: There's not yet, but it's only I got it on 705 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:47,840 Speaker 1: that off deal, so it's only was only five bucks 706 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 1: a month, and Hbo Max is the highest streaming service 707 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:55,920 Speaker 1: that fifteen bucks and for not a whole lot of 708 00:36:55,960 --> 00:36:57,960 Speaker 1: movies over there, or even TV shows anymore that we 709 00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,239 Speaker 1: haven't seen. I don't feel like it's worth it, So 710 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 1: I'm not going to renew it right now to go 711 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:05,960 Speaker 1: watch the Snyder Cup. We pay almost that much for 712 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,239 Speaker 1: Hulu and I'm over here only watching Gray's Anatomy on 713 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:12,719 Speaker 1: and every week. Really, well, but I think I feel 714 00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 1: like Hulu has more TV shows than watch more TV. Yeah, 715 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:19,960 Speaker 1: but that's like month, that's true. Well, we may have 716 00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 1: to reevaluate our streaming services. Yeah, goodbye to Paramount Plus. 717 00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:26,720 Speaker 1: It's already paid for for a year. Okay, well I've 718 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:30,560 Speaker 1: paid in full for Okay. Well, all right, that's enough 719 00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 1: movie news for today. Before we get out of here, 720 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 1: we got to give our shout out of the week. 721 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:36,560 Speaker 1: What you do every single week, All you have to 722 00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:42,080 Speaker 1: do is hit me up on Instagram, Twitter, or on email. 723 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 1: It's movie Mike d at gmail dot com. And this 724 00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:48,240 Speaker 1: d M actually comes to us from Mr Maleman Brandon. 725 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:51,080 Speaker 1: He says, all the talk about coffee on this week's 726 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 1: podcast is really making me want a cup. I'm a 727 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,440 Speaker 1: casual coffee drinker. I grew up in Michigan, so my 728 00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,760 Speaker 1: favorite is Big B. Have you ever had their coffee? 729 00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 1: I've been to Michigan. I think I went to some 730 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 1: random coffee shop that I don't remember getting. But like 731 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:07,919 Speaker 1: we talked about last week, my default to kind of 732 00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 1: when I'm in a place in a city for a 733 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:12,799 Speaker 1: very limited time, I just try to find the nearest Starbucks. 734 00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:15,640 Speaker 1: If there's happens to be a coffee shop around, I 735 00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 1: don't really seek it out, but if there's one local 736 00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:20,240 Speaker 1: place around, I'll go to it. And I think about 737 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:22,040 Speaker 1: when we are traveling for work and when we were 738 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:24,520 Speaker 1: doing stuff on tour, you don't really have a lot 739 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,239 Speaker 1: of time to explore the city. And I know there's 740 00:38:27,280 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 1: great places of all the cities we've been in, but 741 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:32,160 Speaker 1: sometimes you just gotta get what's closed. So I haven't 742 00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,680 Speaker 1: had Big B in Chicago, but I would like to 743 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 1: try it. I'm always in Michigan. What I say, Oh Chicago, 744 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:40,439 Speaker 1: where do we go in Chicago that we got really 745 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:43,360 Speaker 1: great coffee? Well, there was a Starbucks in the lobby hotels, 746 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 1: so we started our day with that. But there was 747 00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 1: also that place from across our hotel where we stayed 748 00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:51,359 Speaker 1: right Oh yeah, that Italy which a chain, but it's 749 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,759 Speaker 1: a great chain. Yeah, they had really great coffee. I 750 00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 1: think we went at night and I got a hot 751 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 1: coffee there. We did We went there like, we there 752 00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:01,879 Speaker 1: like three times. Yeah, we did places great. So that 753 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:05,600 Speaker 1: is our coffee talk for the week.
