1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:02,880 Speaker 1: You're listening to the Jonesy and Demanda podcast. 2 00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:04,760 Speaker 2: Emma is the editor of The Daily Oz. 3 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:09,799 Speaker 3: Emma Hello, Hello, my friends. There's a hot new doco 4 00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:13,560 Speaker 3: that we need to talk about. Have you heard about Milania? 5 00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:16,360 Speaker 2: I have heard about this. Before we get to it. 6 00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:18,240 Speaker 2: Who commissioned it and who asked for it? 7 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:22,599 Speaker 3: Well, that's a great question. Amazon MGM Studios have actually 8 00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,720 Speaker 3: paid a whopping US forty million dollars for the rights, 9 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 3: plus about thirty five million bucks to market it. It's 10 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:33,880 Speaker 3: the most expensive documentary ever. I was hoping that this 11 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 3: was actually going to be a film about her whole life, 12 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,840 Speaker 3: which I might be interested in seeing, but it's very specific. 13 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 3: It documents her life in the twenty days leading up 14 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 3: to Trump's second inauguration. 15 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,360 Speaker 2: The inauguration, not even the election. It's just the inauguration, 16 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:50,720 Speaker 2: just the inauguration. 17 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,559 Speaker 3: And it might shock you to hear that it's failed 18 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:57,280 Speaker 3: to attract much interest here in Australia and the UK. 19 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 3: It is on here at Hoyts for a few more days. 20 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 3: It's being screened in twelve points cinemas around the country, 21 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 3: but ahead of opening day just one ticket was sold 22 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 3: in Australia, just one. 23 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 1: What one in the whole country, just. 24 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,680 Speaker 3: One in the whole country. The UK, its premiere screening 25 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:20,119 Speaker 3: of Millennia also sold just one ticket, but the second 26 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 3: screening had sold three tickets the last time I checked, 27 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 3: so a little bit more interest there. It got panned 28 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 3: by the critics. They have not been kind. Variety called 29 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 3: it a documentary that quote never comes to life and 30 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 3: barely rises to the level of a shameless infomercial. But 31 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 3: I do have to concede it. He is actually doing 32 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 3: better in the US than maybe we initially expected it too. 33 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 3: It made seven million dollars in box office sales for 34 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 3: the opening weekend. 35 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: There. 36 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:51,080 Speaker 3: Look, that's something, but it's not that good. Typically big 37 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 3: budget films make upwards of one hundred mil. On debut 38 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 3: mid budget films, you know, fifteen to thirty million dollars 39 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 3: is considered a success, So seven million dollars not huge 40 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 3: in terms of you know, how much has been spent 41 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:04,559 Speaker 3: on this Stocco. 42 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 2: The memes around this have been very funny. I saw 43 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 2: someone saying that, you know, Abraham Lincoln had said, this 44 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 2: is the worst experience I ever had in a theater. 45 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:14,519 Speaker 1: Did you see South Park? 46 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 2: They had people leaving the plane while I was in 47 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 2: the air walking out of a movie, So who has 48 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 2: wanted this vanity piece? Is Trump in it? 49 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 3: Trump is in it, definitely, but it's it's sort of 50 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 3: Milani's perspective and what her life is like on the 51 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:33,519 Speaker 3: other side. She is obviously the driving force behind it. 52 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 3: She's named as one of the executive producers, so it's 53 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 3: very much her project. But you know, it sounds like 54 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 3: a quite specific to US politics sort of a moment, 55 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 3: or a very Trump moment, But we have a similar 56 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 3: moment unfolding here in Australia, Pauline Hansen actually released a 57 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:55,679 Speaker 3: ninety minute feature film called a Super Progressive Movie. Note 58 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,919 Speaker 3: the sarcasm, but that is what it's called last week. 59 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 3: It's this animated kind of satire, very anti woke agenda. 60 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,360 Speaker 3: It looks a little bit like South Park. There was 61 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 3: a planned screening of a trailer of this movie a 62 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 3: Parliament House last year, but that was canceled because the 63 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:15,080 Speaker 3: film was deemed too offensive. There was a screening in 64 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 3: Melbourne where footage emerged of a brawl. Protest Is apparently 65 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 3: snuck in and set off a stink bomb. But Hollyvlance 66 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,359 Speaker 3: an unlikely named back in the headlines. You might remember 67 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 3: her from Neighbors. She had a hit song in two 68 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,919 Speaker 3: thousand and two called Kiss Kiss. Since then, she's married 69 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 3: a British billionaire. She's become the kind of poster girl 70 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 3: for far right conservative politics in the UK. She actually 71 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 3: wrote a song for this paul En Hanson movie called 72 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 3: Kiss Kiss My Ass. It's a reworked version of her 73 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 3: earlier hit. 74 00:03:50,280 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: And the original. 75 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 3: Yeah so. It was briefly pulled from Apple Music last 76 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 3: week but reinstated. Holly Valances defended the song. She said 77 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 3: that being canceled is fun. She's enjoyed it. Yeah, there 78 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 3: you have it. 79 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: It's good to be canceled, Like really, that's what you're 80 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 1: going to be these days. 81 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,520 Speaker 2: Obviously, Millennia's film is being canceled by people. You know, 82 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 2: people aren't seeing it. 83 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 3: Maybe they should do a double feature at a driving Yeah. 84 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 2: Remind me to avoid that at all costs. I think 85 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 2: it's making its own stink bomb. 86 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:34,679 Speaker 3: Thank you, m thank you. 87 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,840 Speaker 1: Okay, your download is complete.
