[00:00:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Let's get together, talk about the movies that we saw this week.

[00:00:05] [SPEAKER_00]: We'll have discussions, talk from news, we'll laugh a lot and act like these are sounds all narrow and

[00:00:08] [SPEAKER_00]: guessed or clues sometimes, it's just the two of us.

[00:00:10] [SPEAKER_00]: I'll smack some jokes and tell some folks a co-log and I'm gonna ask if I can buy go to the movies.

[00:00:18] [SPEAKER_02]: I can buy go to the movies, yeah!

[00:00:41] [SPEAKER_01]: I think the syllables were so close, you know what's got it.

[00:00:47] [SPEAKER_01]: I had more of my capability.

[00:00:48] [SPEAKER_01]: I was too scared to know.

[00:00:49] [SPEAKER_01]: I started interrupting.

[00:00:50] [SPEAKER_00]: I was the one who knew these weird, and I don't know who you're gonna call!

[00:01:03] [SPEAKER_00]: That's what it is.

[00:01:05] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm sure Kyle could make that in something workable.

[00:01:09] [SPEAKER_00]: Make that in something not terrible.

[00:01:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Mike, if I go to the movies, Mike Smith and Jordan as always is someone celebrating

[00:01:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Rex Manning Day.

[00:01:17] [SPEAKER_00]: Mike, do you have any mic?

[00:01:19] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm doing great. I only know what that is because of when we were on no more late feet. No, yeah, no more late feet

[00:01:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, we didn't talk about Empire Records and no more late feet. Did they or did they do it episode on it?

[00:01:29] [SPEAKER_00]: Like I think they did a bit on it while we were there. Okay, gotcha have you not seen Empire Records? No. I'm not that's the list

[00:01:39] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if I feel like it was Danielle that was who explained that to me

[00:01:43] [SPEAKER_01]: And I don't really remember why or what the context would have been maybe when we were talking about my girl to you

[00:01:48] [SPEAKER_01]: Somehow Empire Records came up or something. I don't know oh, yeah, maybe that's that's definitely possible

[00:01:53] [SPEAKER_00]: That would have been a while ago. Yeah, for sure

[00:01:56] [SPEAKER_00]: But we'll get to talk about Empire Records in just a few minutes Mike. Oh, yeah, what's going on?

[00:02:01] [SPEAKER_00]: You might get time for an off-mic mic mic discussions episode. Yes, it's just the usual

[00:02:06] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean you know surviving the current Hellscape that we live in so I don't I don't know I don't have many updates other than alive

[00:02:12] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you know, we're we're recording this on the debate night and

[00:02:15] [SPEAKER_01]: God, I forgot

[00:02:17] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't want to know a good thing we're doing this so I won't be that's what I'm saying

[00:02:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, what what times I didn't even start? I have no idea. I don't know it's kind of you

[00:02:26] [SPEAKER_00]: See niche or really I don't know could be soon could be late anything possible anything good

[00:02:31] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, we're recording it on debate night and we are actively not watching the debate

[00:02:35] [SPEAKER_00]: And instead we're gonna talk about some movies that we've watched lately

[00:02:37] [SPEAKER_01]: That seems like a better use of our time I think absolutely you know what you should do instead of anything watch movies

[00:02:43] [SPEAKER_00]: You know

[00:02:44] [SPEAKER_00]: Truly more and more that more people are saying this I think is now more than ever

[00:02:51] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, so no we have both watched a bunch of stuff

[00:02:53] [SPEAKER_00]: I was actually out in York recently for a sort of sudden trip

[00:02:57] [SPEAKER_00]: I got hang out with my de-for a couple of hours which was fun. Yeah, it was a beer garden. We danced to some disco

[00:03:03] [SPEAKER_00]: It was at the time. Yeah, it was great. You know that one of the first songs they played at that disco was September by earth wouldn't fire

[00:03:09] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, which you know if you go to any disco

[00:03:11] [SPEAKER_00]: That's going to play yeah, and then on my flight home

[00:03:14] [SPEAKER_00]: I watched robot dreams

[00:03:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Which I'll talk about in a little bit and that's all that movie heavily features the songs September by earth wouldn't fire really

[00:03:21] [SPEAKER_00]: Which is a song that I have been low-key sort of obsessed with for years

[00:03:25] [SPEAKER_00]: So it was a big weekend for September in the month of September for old Mike Smith. Whoa

[00:03:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Didn't even put that together that it is now so early September. Yes, absolutely. Only we were recording this episode on September 21st

[00:03:39] [SPEAKER_00]: But a last we could that

[00:03:43] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, that is why you know we sort of had a delay in the podcast for a little bit

[00:03:47] [SPEAKER_00]: We had a bit of a we missed one of our weeks for the Roy Shire podcast

[00:03:51] [SPEAKER_00]: But we're back now. We just published our jaws to episode with Nick so thanks again to Nick for joining us for that one and

[00:03:57] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, hopefully we'll be able to stay on schedule for the foreseeable future. We'll see what happens. Yeah

[00:04:02] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean anything's possible, but I'm pretty sure we're good to go for a little while

[00:04:05] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, I think so all right. Let's get into it Mike and stand for some discussions

[00:04:28] [SPEAKER_00]: All right, it's time for some discussions on my coat of the movies and Mike DNA both went to

[00:04:34] [SPEAKER_00]: Different horror events over the last couple of weeks. So Mike D. Let's hear the run down a year's first

[00:04:39] [SPEAKER_00]: How was the what's called again? Well this year is just the horror on okay all night

[00:04:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Harmovie Barathon at the cinema arts center in Huntington

[00:04:49] [SPEAKER_01]: New York and yeah, so all night marathon last year was zombie thund so there's a theme this year was just

[00:04:55] [SPEAKER_01]: General horror and yeah, we played this it starts five five eight p.m. Five movies got got home at six a.m. Which was crazy

[00:05:04] [SPEAKER_01]: It's one of those things you walk out of you know when you like get home when you get into bed and you're like

[00:05:08] [SPEAKER_01]: You look at the window and it's like oh the sun is coming up

[00:05:11] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm like the strange experience

[00:05:12] [SPEAKER_01]: But there's no you know, it's it's fun to stay up all night and watch

[00:05:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Went just hearing movies in a crowd of people yeah

[00:05:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Better laughing and cheering and everything

[00:05:20] [SPEAKER_01]: You know it's what we've talked about this before we used to go to other all day marathon

[00:05:24] [SPEAKER_01]: That were not all night things, but it's just funny to like being a crowd where like the opening credits of a movie will be playing and it would be like end featuring

[00:05:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Clint Howard and everyone's like yeah

[00:05:32] [SPEAKER_01]: Like they're all cheering you're like you know special effects by right whatever

[00:05:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Everyone's clapping and stuff

[00:05:38] [SPEAKER_01]: So it's a fun fun experience, but yeah this year

[00:05:40] [SPEAKER_01]: They were I'll still just go and we just kind of run through all them sort of quickly because it was five movies

[00:05:45] [SPEAKER_01]: But first up was the race from 1986 and this is the end featuring Clint Howard where

[00:05:51] [SPEAKER_01]: And this is about a group of like street punk in like the Southwest

[00:05:56] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know it's very strange. It's one of those things we were talking about

[00:06:00] [SPEAKER_01]: In relation to streets of fire where it's like hey, this is just a bunch of teenagers and there's no adults around it all

[00:06:05] [SPEAKER_01]: Right, I remember there's one thing ready quade plays the sheriff and he's hot on the trail of these punks

[00:06:11] [SPEAKER_01]: Because it's one of those things were like you got off the judge let you off last time, but I'm gonna get you asked what are these days kind of thing

[00:06:18] [SPEAKER_01]: And there are street punks that challenge people to drag races for pink slips and they and they get all their cars

[00:06:24] [SPEAKER_01]: But they also engineered the races so that they crash and kill people and stuff and and there's this otherworldly driver who sort of looks like

[00:06:32] [SPEAKER_01]: Like the stick from top gear. He's just like you know, it is a racing

[00:06:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Raising jumpsuit and helmet reflective helmet

[00:06:38] [SPEAKER_01]: You don't know who has he's got this futuristic car and he comes from out of town and nobody knows who he is and

[00:06:43] [SPEAKER_01]: He

[00:06:44] [SPEAKER_01]: Makes the the bad guys crash and stand basically he's killing them one by one and it maybe maybe he's from the after life getting revenge or whatever

[00:06:54] [SPEAKER_01]: You know, this is some fun silly stuff

[00:06:56] [SPEAKER_01]: But the movie's not really that great the most interesting part for me was that it features Sheryl and Finn who is

[00:07:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Audrey Horne I believe right from twin pigs in this in 1986 so pre twin peaks

[00:07:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so she's she's the love interest

[00:07:11] [SPEAKER_01]: You know girl that's stuck in a bad relationship thing and the race might help her be free. I don't know whatever

[00:07:16] [SPEAKER_01]: It's fine. The movie wasn't that great, but it was the first one so we're gonna let that one slide right next was the blob

[00:07:22] [SPEAKER_01]: From 1988 so they're great of this which is

[00:07:25] [SPEAKER_01]: Draked by Chuck Russell and written by Frank Darrebound which is a lot of fun

[00:07:29] [SPEAKER_01]: So there's a lot of Darrebound

[00:07:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Troop people that are around in this and I guess it's from 1988 so I guess it's pretty early in that the formation of that

[00:07:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Right

[00:07:38] [SPEAKER_01]: And this movie rules it's so fun. It's you know, it's the love the thing crashes rather

[00:07:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Adverspace and that it's it's a goofy and gross and it starts slowly

[00:07:48] [SPEAKER_01]: Eating people and getting bigger and eating people and getting bigger and it's gonna take over this town

[00:07:52] [SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, it's just it's cool. It's just nasty and mean and

[00:07:57] [SPEAKER_01]: That's a fix or disgusting and goofy and the you know dissolving obviously

[00:08:03] [SPEAKER_00]: I have not seen the 80s blood. I've seen the 50s one. I've seen the original which I think Steve McQueen is the star of that one

[00:08:10] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, yes, which is right weird to

[00:08:14] [SPEAKER_00]: Just in the McQueen fromography. You don't think about the blob all that often

[00:08:17] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, I remember really enjoying the 50s one

[00:08:20] [SPEAKER_00]: But I've heard like the reputation of the 80s one being like really like mean spirited and grossing the practical effects are amazing and all that stuff

[00:08:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I've had the blue ray of it for a while just never got around to it

[00:08:29] [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, I want to watch it. Yeah, it's real fun

[00:08:31] [SPEAKER_01]: It's definitely worth a watch. It's a lot of fun and then the next movie was

[00:08:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Freightnight from 1985 which I had seen before and this I think was the greatest

[00:08:41] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean my favorite movie of the night. I guess, but it's one of those things that like really baby

[00:08:44] [SPEAKER_01]: Experience and understand like the power of the movie the cinema

[00:08:48] [SPEAKER_01]: You know like the experience like I said of being in a crowd like that where people are cheering for the special effects by

[00:08:53] [SPEAKER_01]: Right and stuff and things like that

[00:08:55] [SPEAKER_01]: So I've seen this movie at home and I think I watched it with some friends on discord and stuff

[00:09:00] [SPEAKER_01]: So like with a crowd big old big old air quotes

[00:09:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, but seeing it in actual crowd in person like that just like really elevates and transforms movie

[00:09:08] [SPEAKER_01]: We talked about this I think when we saw it when we saw a jaws

[00:09:10] [SPEAKER_01]: We talked about at the Aladrath house a couple years ago

[00:09:13] [SPEAKER_01]: We're like I never realized how funny jaws was because I was always watching it at home on AMC with commercials or whatever

[00:09:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Right, and then you see with the big old big crowd and you're like, well, you should. This is hilarious

[00:09:23] [SPEAKER_01]: And Friday was a lot like that

[00:09:24] [SPEAKER_01]: So it's a big transformation world

[00:09:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, that's what this move. I mean like I liked Friday before, but it like made it like holy shit

[00:09:30] [SPEAKER_01]: This movie of your rules

[00:09:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Kind of so and of course right night. It's just it's just a classic. I mean, have you seen Friday?

[00:09:37] [SPEAKER_01]: I've actually not seen Friday

[00:09:39] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, oh my god, go on the list right next year. Add that to the list. Yeah, no, I would like to see Friday

[00:09:44] [SPEAKER_00]: I remember there was a Friday night. So you've frightened it if I had one

[00:09:50] [SPEAKER_00]: There was a remake of Friday in like 2012 with Colin Farrell, right?

[00:09:53] [SPEAKER_00]: And I remember when that was coming out and like kind of wanting to see that and I heard that was actually pretty good

[00:09:58] [SPEAKER_00]: It's like David tended in that to you or something right?

[00:10:00] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean maybe even for these things yeah, but I never saw it because I wanted to see the original first

[00:10:04] [SPEAKER_00]: I've never got around watching the original so I never saw the remake

[00:10:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's about I mean, it's a classic story

[00:10:10] [SPEAKER_01]: It's about this kid who's got this like creepy old house next door and a new neighbor moves in and he thinks he's of Empire

[00:10:16] [SPEAKER_01]: And the van or might be of Empire and that's it's Chris Crescerandon

[00:10:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Right is the neighbor Roddy McDall plays this TV host like a like a Lvira kind of thing

[00:10:27] [SPEAKER_01]: I could write that's yeah Lvira kind of thing like a

[00:10:29] [SPEAKER_01]: Rol has inductors A's from planet of the apes doctors. I used to say yes. He plays you didn't tell me

[00:10:34] [SPEAKER_01]: Dr Zayas was in the smoof

[00:10:35] [SPEAKER_01]: This character is Peter Vincent, so you know Vincent Price and Peter Laurie

[00:10:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe no, I don't know I can't remember anyway

[00:10:44] [SPEAKER_01]: It's so much to those guys and he plays a vampire Peter Vincent the vampire hunter is like his cat his character

[00:10:50] [SPEAKER_01]: They call him to come help them with their next our neighbor, and it's silly and has some good violin

[00:10:56] [SPEAKER_01]: You know some good gore and stuff, but it is mostly a comedy kind of thing

[00:11:00] [SPEAKER_01]: But it's it gets scary when it has to get scary and it's one of those things that maybe realized to like there's a

[00:11:05] [SPEAKER_01]: A moment where somebody is

[00:11:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Turned like turns into a wolf because you know like vampires can become wolves kind of thing right and

[00:11:11] [SPEAKER_01]: It's like a whole like they like made a whole thing like it's obviously not on level like America

[00:11:16] [SPEAKER_01]: We're often London but they made a whole transformation there's whole sequence and they built a whole prosthetic

[00:11:21] [SPEAKER_01]: And it goes from like an actual wolf like a real wolf and then slowly trans like you know whatever into a person and stuff

[00:11:27] [SPEAKER_01]: And uh

[00:11:28] [SPEAKER_01]: It's like 50 seconds of screen time and he's like they made a whole fucking thing for this for fifth

[00:11:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Not even a minute, you know, it's like they used to make movies is what I'm never forget what they took for us and that's what right

[00:11:38] [SPEAKER_01]: It's about

[00:11:40] [SPEAKER_01]: And then the next movie which so now sort of the Friday, you know two bangers, you know the blob right night. It's one

[00:11:47] [SPEAKER_01]: I am

[00:11:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, okay here we go

[00:11:50] [SPEAKER_01]: But number four was a doll by Stuart Gordon and this movie rules yeah, it's insane

[00:11:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's crazy best part 77 minutes

[00:12:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Killer perfect for a one-day

[00:12:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Start time and yeah, this is about a family their car breaks down on vacation

[00:12:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, it's raining. There's a storm. Oh look a big old house right here on the road

[00:12:11] [SPEAKER_01]: Let's not come to door and it's this creepy old fucking doll maker

[00:12:16] [SPEAKER_01]: And and his creepy old life and they

[00:12:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Can we spend the night whatever and there's other other people whose cars also break down and this of course

[00:12:23] [SPEAKER_01]: Stuart Gordon so if you've seen re-attamator or whatever, it's got that kind of wacky silly sensibility

[00:12:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Also, but also the doll effects are incredible. There's their like stop motion kind of stuff

[00:12:33] [SPEAKER_01]: It looks really great and there's this very young daughter is the very young girl is like the main character

[00:12:38] [SPEAKER_01]: And she's got this over-remact active imagination in her imaginary friends and her parents don't like oh my god

[00:12:43] [SPEAKER_01]: You got to stop stop you got to grow up, you know your eight or whatever

[00:12:47] [SPEAKER_01]: And so for dolls now air two over dolls now exactly

[00:12:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Stop telling these making up these stories and of course

[00:12:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Nobody believes her when the dolls start coming to life and then

[00:12:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Stuart Gordon shenanigans and so basically

[00:13:01] [SPEAKER_01]: And it's really good. It's also it's really funny. It's violent and stuff

[00:13:05] [SPEAKER_01]: It's a good real fun Harvey and if you're a creeped out my dolls, you will be creeped out

[00:13:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, there's a lot of dolls and they're scary very cool and then the next movie was the last one right?

[00:13:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes, so now this is the last one. It's started. I think around three a.m. or whatever it is

[00:13:19] [SPEAKER_01]: Probably guess a little earlier than that but um this was L'Amber to Baba's demons

[00:13:23] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, this this is the only one I add your line up that I have seen. I think actually yes, I think so yeah, you said it said that and

[00:13:31] [SPEAKER_01]: And I had never seen this but I've definitely heard of it

[00:13:33] [SPEAKER_01]: And this is a weird movie. I mean, it's very cool. It's about this this this you know audience this group of people that get invited to a

[00:13:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Like secret screening secret premiere or whatever a sneak preview of this weird movie in this very

[00:13:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Weird movie theater that like I'm pretty sure is like a warehouse

[00:13:50] [SPEAKER_01]: Or like a factory or something and the baby the event to the movie or

[00:13:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Bleeding into the real life

[00:13:58] [SPEAKER_01]: What and yeah, then it's just these people trapped in a movie theater

[00:14:01] [SPEAKER_01]: While these demons this possessions are going on. It's like a virus and I feel like you get scratched

[00:14:07] [SPEAKER_01]: You become a demon and all this stuff

[00:14:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Um, and this movie was very cool. It is very visually interesting. However, like I said it was 3 a.m.

[00:14:14] [SPEAKER_01]: We are the Italian movie slowly pace let like a little synth thing going on in the soundtrack

[00:14:20] [SPEAKER_01]: When I was awake, I was in it

[00:14:22] [SPEAKER_01]: But I was definitely following a sleep during demons

[00:14:24] [SPEAKER_01]: Which is unfortunate and this happened to me too last year when they played their last movie was

[00:14:29] [SPEAKER_01]: It was a full-chea movie. I forget the name of it because it also had two different titles

[00:14:34] [SPEAKER_01]: city of the living dead or something like that and that sounds familiar something like that where it's like

[00:14:39] [SPEAKER_01]: This is a weird mood piece a talent stranger Italian movie

[00:14:43] [SPEAKER_01]: And I'm sleepy

[00:14:46] [SPEAKER_01]: It was tough to tough to say I enjoyed that movie same thing for demons

[00:14:50] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I think if I watched it again and could like actually pay attention

[00:14:52] [SPEAKER_01]: You know stay awake for all of it. I would like it a lot more, but it was it was fine

[00:14:56] [SPEAKER_01]: It was especially coming off the high of dolls

[00:14:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Someone was like hell yeah, we did it and then it's like you know

[00:15:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Drowny synth music and I was like, maybe I could take a little nap

[00:15:04] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, demons was the very first movie to ever play a trash fault at the rock sea

[00:15:09] [SPEAKER_00]: That's cool and I was there for that screening

[00:15:11] [SPEAKER_00]: That was before I worked at the rock sea and yeah, no, I really loved it at the time

[00:15:15] [SPEAKER_00]: I thought it was really really fun and I think partially is because it like signaled to me a new era of these kinds of movies playing at the rock sea

[00:15:21] [SPEAKER_00]: Which they weren't really before

[00:15:23] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I'm just saying I remember when I first moved to Missula trash well started in 2019

[00:15:26] [SPEAKER_00]: I moved to Missula in 2018 and the rock I was at the rock sea a lot

[00:15:30] [SPEAKER_00]: You know, just you know

[00:15:31] [SPEAKER_00]: It's my it was my indie theater that's playing a lot of red movies. I was going to see a lot of stuff

[00:15:35] [SPEAKER_00]: But I really missed the Hudson horror show kind of stuff the dismembered the alamo like this

[00:15:40] [SPEAKER_00]: That we used to go to because the rocks you wasn't really doing that until trash fall started and then demons became the thing

[00:15:48] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's fun. It takes place all in a movie theater and stuff

[00:15:51] [SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, there's a cool meta thing going on

[00:15:54] [SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, it's just just to sleep a little guy. You know, it's just can't help it when it's at three a.m. for you

[00:15:59] [SPEAKER_00]: Whenever it was absolutely but yeah, definitely watch it another time because it is a lot of fun

[00:16:03] [SPEAKER_00]: All right, so that is the horror thund which Mike D went to and then I went to the camp horror film festival

[00:16:10] [SPEAKER_00]: The old fan you will which of course Mike D has been out to before and I went to slash worked it

[00:16:16] [SPEAKER_00]: I was kind of you know, it in out of the whole fest

[00:16:18] [SPEAKER_00]: But I did get to go to almost everything at the festival

[00:16:21] [SPEAKER_00]: Which was really great last year. I had to miss a couple of things that I work and I was pretty bummed out about it

[00:16:26] [SPEAKER_00]: But this year I got to go to both shorts blocks

[00:16:28] [SPEAKER_00]: The rainbows over the port of Patti shorts block and the tails from the dark side shorts block

[00:16:33] [SPEAKER_00]: I think was called but yeah, it's both a really great

[00:16:37] [SPEAKER_00]: I got to do a Q&A after the dark side one with the Casey Chapman

[00:16:41] [SPEAKER_00]: The writer and director of a short film called the lookouts as well as Darren Thornton the lead actor of that film

[00:16:46] [SPEAKER_00]: It was shot right here in Montana and takes place on a lookout tower and it was filmed on a real lookout tower

[00:16:52] [SPEAKER_00]: And it's about the sky who encounters the southern guy who is like meant to be his partner at the lookout

[00:16:57] [SPEAKER_00]: And then things take a turn

[00:17:00] [SPEAKER_00]: They might not be what they appear to be exactly. Yeah, there's some weird mossy stuff that gets in there

[00:17:06] [SPEAKER_00]: It's really fun. It's a lot of good stuff and all the shorts

[00:17:09] [SPEAKER_00]: We're just really really well curated and so much good stuff in there

[00:17:14] [SPEAKER_00]: So shut up the survey for that one

[00:17:16] [SPEAKER_00]: I also was scheduled to do a Q&A after the rainbows over the port of Patti shorts block

[00:17:20] [SPEAKER_00]: And instead I was killed by the sack lunch slasher

[00:17:23] [SPEAKER_00]: So I am dead now

[00:17:26] [SPEAKER_00]: All right, if you canceling right. Yes, yeah, no, I am I'm no longer alive as of this recording

[00:17:31] [SPEAKER_00]: Which is a little bit of the bummer but I'm glad to do my part for the campfire film festival and

[00:17:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully maybe my identical twin will come back next year. We'll see what happens. Yeah

[00:17:40] [SPEAKER_01]: I feel like there's a long lineage along a long history of camp counselors in your family that may be able to come back

[00:17:46] [SPEAKER_00]: Exactly. Yes, that's that's sort of what I'm hoping for

[00:17:49] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, got to do both shorts blocks which was a lot of fun did the spooky stories in the garden

[00:17:54] [SPEAKER_00]: Which was great very very fun time there and then yeah, but there was the three marquee features at the campfire film festival

[00:18:01] [SPEAKER_00]: The first of which was Santo and Blue Demon versus Dracula and the Wolfman hell

[00:18:07] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and so I had not seen a Santo film before but there are a lot of them

[00:18:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Santo Santo and Blue Demon are both real life Mexican wrestlers who throughout the 60s 70s

[00:18:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Nades just made like a shitload of movies almost always as themselves

[00:18:22] [SPEAKER_00]: And they never take their masks off at all even when they're just like, you know in the living room talking to people

[00:18:29] [SPEAKER_00]: They're like wearing a suit, but they have the mask on kind of like they never reveal their identities to the public

[00:18:34] [SPEAKER_00]: And that's not just in the movies. I believe that's also just in life

[00:18:37] [SPEAKER_00]: They would never if they were out in public

[00:18:39] [SPEAKER_00]: They're wearing their masks. It's part of the literature of thing

[00:18:41] [SPEAKER_00]: I think so. Yeah, absolutely and so Santo Blue Demon were two very popular loot-addores and yeah

[00:18:47] [SPEAKER_00]: This movie you know, I wouldn't go as far as to say that it's good

[00:18:50] [SPEAKER_00]: But I had a great time. It's really fun

[00:18:53] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's essentially Santo is kind of roped into this plot

[00:18:57] [SPEAKER_00]: Dracula has been brought back to life and the Wolfman teams up with him and

[00:19:03] [SPEAKER_00]: Dracula in the Wolfman are trying to like worm their way into

[00:19:07] [SPEAKER_00]: Santo's girlfriend's family like Santo's girlfriend's father is like a

[00:19:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Historian of Dracula and Wolfman lore or something

[00:19:15] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm like the keys there as a reaction or whatever it is

[00:19:18] [SPEAKER_00]: The Wolfman able to disguise himself as human because the only turns into a wolf of the full moon

[00:19:23] [SPEAKER_00]: And is trying to seduce

[00:19:25] [SPEAKER_00]: Santo's girlfriend's sister and like makes make his way into the family

[00:19:28] [SPEAKER_00]: But they do know that something's going on and so Santo enlist the help of Blue Demon to try to defeat

[00:19:33] [SPEAKER_00]: Dracula and the Wolfman and

[00:19:36] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's a good time that thing is like there's a lot of that very fun moments in the movie

[00:19:39] [SPEAKER_00]: It probably drags a little bit too long but they're like three or four moments

[00:19:44] [SPEAKER_00]: It cuts back to just a wrestling match

[00:19:46] [SPEAKER_00]: We're like

[00:19:47] [SPEAKER_00]: Like in the ring like a ring in the ring

[00:19:50] [SPEAKER_00]: Like the first 10 minutes the movie are you're just watching Santo and a wrestling match

[00:19:53] [SPEAKER_00]: And then we used this blue demon. He's an wrestling match and it's like and so every time it cuts back to that

[00:19:59] [SPEAKER_00]: Best shit ever. It's so good

[00:20:03] [SPEAKER_00]: It's a completely static shot of just the wrestling ring and like the people inside it

[00:20:08] [SPEAKER_00]: And you're just watching them wrestle and it's a great time

[00:20:11] [SPEAKER_00]: So every time it cuts that really really enjoyed it. So yeah

[00:20:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Santo and Blue Demon versus Dracula and the Wolfman of the 33 Santo films out there

[00:20:20] [SPEAKER_00]: This is one of them and I think it's I think it's one of the more generally well-recarded ones

[00:20:25] [SPEAKER_00]: So okay people should check it out. It's it's a lot of fun. Nice. Yeah

[00:20:29] [SPEAKER_01]: Remember we talked about it with John Howard that we're on that episode that the indicator in Blu-ray

[00:20:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Company or whatever label has a box set of some some of these so yes, I almost bought it

[00:20:41] [SPEAKER_00]: But I was like maybe that maybe a whole lot of things

[00:20:44] [SPEAKER_00]: Sure, yeah

[00:20:45] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, San Tom Blue Demon versus Dracula and Wolfman was the first film in the campfire film festival

[00:20:49] [SPEAKER_00]: And then there was the Rocky Horror Picture Show

[00:20:51] [SPEAKER_00]: Which has become a campfire tradition at this point that plays every single year and

[00:20:56] [SPEAKER_00]: Initially I was not gonna do this one. We were we were not planning on doing Rocky Horror this year because we went two years ago

[00:21:02] [SPEAKER_00]: At campfire me and you went actually with the Mago friend Cheryl that was my first time ever watching it and

[00:21:07] [SPEAKER_00]: Two years later. I was like I think I'm good like I've seen it

[00:21:11] [SPEAKER_00]: I like it well enough

[00:21:13] [SPEAKER_00]: But I'm definitely not a huge into the Rocky Horror world as many other people are but you know the thing with campfire is that if you go to all the movies

[00:21:22] [SPEAKER_00]: You get a sticker for each movie

[00:21:23] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and then if you get all three stickers you get a special merit badge that says you went to all three movies

[00:21:29] [SPEAKER_00]: And like the morning of the the morning of Rocky Horror my girlfriend was like

[00:21:34] [SPEAKER_00]: We got to get that sticker

[00:21:36] [SPEAKER_00]: You gotta do it and so I was like all right fine. We'll do Rocky Horror

[00:21:39] [SPEAKER_00]: And so we went to the 530 screening of the Rocky Horror Picture Show

[00:21:44] [SPEAKER_00]: Which this year there was no midnight screening it was a 530 and a 9 o'clock and the 9 o'clock at the same time as house

[00:21:49] [SPEAKER_00]: So we can't do we couldn't do both

[00:21:51] [SPEAKER_00]: We had to do the 530 Rocky Horror

[00:21:53] [SPEAKER_00]: Which was a solid crowd that was like 6,000,000 people

[00:21:56] [SPEAKER_00]: But it is just like it's a much lower energy crowd than I think you would have the midnight screening or the night of clock even

[00:22:02] [SPEAKER_00]: You know, it's just like the people who are here for the early afternoon early evening Rocky Horror

[00:22:07] [SPEAKER_00]: Early bird Rocky Horror yeah and so there were like three or four people in the crowd who were like sort of enlisted as like Rocky Horror experts

[00:22:14] [SPEAKER_00]: Who like knew all the bits that you're supposed to do and so they sort of led the crowd and all the various different things

[00:22:20] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, you know it was it was a little much

[00:22:22] [SPEAKER_00]: I think yeah, but I do enjoy the movie. I think it's solid

[00:22:29] [SPEAKER_00]: I just it's not one of my favorites and I don't love and I think like barely hangs together as a movie

[00:22:34] [SPEAKER_00]: That makes some some some fight-nords

[00:22:37] [SPEAKER_00]: It's what it is

[00:22:39] [SPEAKER_00]: But I think it's a fun experience. It's a fun movie to watch the crowd and so and I do like some of the songs a lot

[00:22:44] [SPEAKER_00]: You know, well the level of meat loaf shows up. That's great

[00:22:47] [SPEAKER_00]: I had also forgotten that the first like 20 minutes of the movie are in black and white

[00:22:52] [SPEAKER_00]: Because it turns into color when it goes at the time warp like that time warp happens and like the suddenly

[00:22:57] [SPEAKER_00]: It's like vibrant color so I had forgotten the first 20 minutes when black and white

[00:23:00] [SPEAKER_00]: And I almost thought we were like accidentally playing in the wrong version of the film or something

[00:23:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that doesn't sound familiar. That's I don't know if that is real even though you saw it

[00:23:12] [SPEAKER_01]: Huh, I don't remember that ever also

[00:23:14] [SPEAKER_01]: That I missed that's what we've seen it. I haven't seen it as much as like other like real rocky hardheads

[00:23:20] [SPEAKER_00]: You know, I've seen a few times yeah, I mean there are people who watch it every year or more than that

[00:23:25] [SPEAKER_00]: You know, I had for the reason I avoided it for so long is because I knew people who were too big and rocky horror

[00:23:30] [SPEAKER_00]: They were right

[00:23:31] [SPEAKER_00]: Too much into it and I couldn't associate with that much rocky horror all at once

[00:23:36] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, it's a very fun movie and it was if I'm like watch with the crowd

[00:23:40] [SPEAKER_00]: But it was mostly for the sticker is why we went to write your picture show

[00:23:44] [SPEAKER_01]: I was actually just looking at my I have the badge hanging in my room

[00:23:49] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah, and I was like oh, yeah, look there's still the stickers on like just recently

[00:23:53] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, the stickers on the thing yeah, that's the tricky thing if you want all the stickers now because rocky horror is

[00:23:57] [SPEAKER_00]: You know tradition you gotta go to rocky horror every year gotta do it. I've seen I saw it with a shadow cast

[00:24:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Which is pretty fun. That's like a kind of unique thing or different where it's a stage

[00:24:06] [SPEAKER_01]: You know the screen and then on stage is people acting out the movie along with the like it's not a life story

[00:24:12] [SPEAKER_01]: They just out also acted out and like do all the songs and the dances and stuff

[00:24:15] [SPEAKER_01]: So that's fun. That's a cool little blend is so that

[00:24:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh man, I forget what the theater was called in all but he's somewhere

[00:24:21] [SPEAKER_01]: So the palesteader

[00:24:23] [SPEAKER_01]: You know how it does they do I that were dead when we were there yeah like full it's a screening

[00:24:28] [SPEAKER_01]: It's a regular screening. It's not the shadow cast there. Yeah. I went to that one and then it yeah

[00:24:32] [SPEAKER_01]: So it was a smaller I can't remember it was like a woman's museum or something

[00:24:34] [SPEAKER_01]: I forget if that was the that we're like oh, look. I'll think about it

[00:24:38] [SPEAKER_00]: How do I remember it? But anyway, rocky horror what else did you see right yes? Well did rocky horror and then

[00:24:43] [SPEAKER_00]: I had to go see house on 35 millimeter

[00:24:45] [SPEAKER_00]: Which was the final film of the camp horror film festival and house is like one of my all-time favorite movies

[00:24:51] [SPEAKER_00]: I love this thing so much as I talked about in our camp horror episode

[00:24:54] [SPEAKER_00]: I discovered house when I was like 15 16 years old

[00:24:58] [SPEAKER_00]: I was scrolling through the channels TCM it was two in the morning and TCM underground

[00:25:04] [SPEAKER_00]: Came on and the movie that they're playing was house and I had never heard of it

[00:25:09] [SPEAKER_00]: And I watched it and it blew my mind

[00:25:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Destroyed by perception of reality and ever since I've been a huge huge fan of this movie

[00:25:16] [SPEAKER_00]: I've since shown it to several people but I haven't watched it in a very long time actually the last time

[00:25:21] [SPEAKER_00]: I watched it. I think is when I showed it to you Mike oh

[00:25:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Which would have been like 2018 maybe 2017? It was like one of those like I was looking at lighter box

[00:25:30] [SPEAKER_00]: It was like at least six or seven years ago. Yeah, and I remember when we watched it

[00:25:34] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, it was like a weekend where we were going to a horror festival

[00:25:37] [SPEAKER_00]: And it was a mystery fest

[00:25:38] [SPEAKER_00]: It was like it was like a Hudson horror show mystery screening and like mystery marathon and when I showed it to you

[00:25:44] [SPEAKER_00]: I was like okay, so we don't know what's what's playing tomorrow. It's possible that like this could play tomorrow

[00:25:51] [SPEAKER_00]: But we got to take that chance because you got to see

[00:25:55] [SPEAKER_00]: And worst-case scenario you get to watch it twice this week

[00:25:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think before hand it would have been like oh, I don't know but then having watched it

[00:26:03] [SPEAKER_01]: We like yeah, okay watch this twice and all that you can yeah, right?

[00:26:07] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, house is insane

[00:26:08] [SPEAKER_00]: It we got to watch on 35 millimeter and the print looks fantastic. It was really really cool

[00:26:12] [SPEAKER_00]: And I got to watch it again with a group of people who about half of them had seen the movie and about half of them had nuts and

[00:26:19] [SPEAKER_00]: Watching house with people who have not seen it is always a really fun time

[00:26:23] [SPEAKER_00]: I highly recommend it. It's just one of those things where you get to show it to people and they don't know how to react to it

[00:26:29] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah for our work. I think that it's it's a

[00:26:34] [SPEAKER_01]: Intrutable like unknowable

[00:26:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Kind of movie right like yeah

[00:26:38] [SPEAKER_00]: Exactly, I mean for those who don't know what house is

[00:26:41] [SPEAKER_00]: It's a 1977 movie

[00:26:43] [SPEAKER_00]: Directed by no he who oh, yeah, she about a group of girls who are going on like a sort of a summer vacation

[00:26:49] [SPEAKER_00]: They end up going to one of the girls and houses like an estranged aunt that she hasn't seen in a very long time

[00:26:54] [SPEAKER_00]: The aunt is a witch and crazy things start to happen. It is you know as somebody who grew up in what when I was a teenager

[00:27:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Really especially obsessed with the evil dead movies

[00:27:05] [SPEAKER_00]: I watched house shortly after I watched evil dead and it really scratched that same kind of issue for me

[00:27:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Where I was like here's something completely insane like nothing else out there and somehow like goes even harder than

[00:27:17] [SPEAKER_00]: Evil dead

[00:27:19] [SPEAKER_00]: It came out a few years before that you know like that it's it's really

[00:27:23] [SPEAKER_00]: Remarkable what it is

[00:27:25] [SPEAKER_00]: It like changes everything that you like you can conceive of what film to be in a in a weird sense

[00:27:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's definitely one of those things where like you can do this you're allowed to

[00:27:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Have a piano you people are like what are you right whenever it is

[00:27:39] [SPEAKER_00]: Have all their heads floating around or something oh yeah there's a floating head there's a piano

[00:27:43] [SPEAKER_00]: Eat and fingers there's the cat with a twinkly eyes and yes

[00:27:47] [SPEAKER_00]: There's just weird like moments where you're just watching like sort of dance montages or like you know all the characters are kind of talking in like speech bubbles

[00:27:56] [SPEAKER_00]: You know that that kind of thing all the characters by the way are all our all named after their one character traits

[00:28:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Which is also very funny and then and that's all they do like there's melody and she's the musical one and there's kung fu and she's the athletic one

[00:28:08] [SPEAKER_00]: And there's mac and she's the one who's always eating

[00:28:12] [SPEAKER_00]: And yeah, no, it's it's so so good house rules great to watch it with the sold out crowd on 35 millimeter

[00:28:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Then afterwards we had the camp horror closing parties more than the garden did that had an after party a flippers great time

[00:28:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah camp horror film festival another one in the books

[00:28:27] [SPEAKER_00]: We did it and yet next year the plan is also very exciting. I'm not sure about my lab to say on the air on the podcast

[00:28:33] [SPEAKER_00]: Like that trouble man. Yeah, but I know one of the movies that is that is planned to be playing

[00:28:39] [SPEAKER_00]: I can't pour our next year and I'm pretty excited about it

[00:28:42] [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, there you go

[00:28:44] [SPEAKER_00]: That's the camp horror film festival. Sontom blue demon Rocky horror and house with the three movies this year

[00:28:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Plus some shorts blocks and bunch of other stuff too

[00:28:51] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, there it is that we just spent like a solid 25 minutes on just our horror

[00:28:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes, but well see what you make well so first off

[00:28:58] [SPEAKER_01]: I found that the the it was the the Linda in Albany if you remember that it's the Linda think I do

[00:29:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, WAMC's performing arts studio is the full title of the venue

[00:29:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so it's a radio station's life performance thing or something. I don't really know I don't remember and so what else

[00:29:13] [SPEAKER_01]: So I haven't watching I think we go back to a letter box and find out

[00:29:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, so if you continue on the horror kick. I guess just you know

[00:29:19] [SPEAKER_01]: It's it's I think it's officially spooky season or pre pre spooky or the road approaching spooky

[00:29:24] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know what it is September 10 that thing everyone has their own threshold for when spooky season starts

[00:29:29] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, there is a spirit Halloween open in Missoula right now. So I guess that's that's it

[00:29:34] [SPEAKER_01]: That's it as the carbon jurors spooky season

[00:29:36] [SPEAKER_00]: But I feel like it opens earlier every year. I'm not honest counts as spooky season

[00:29:41] [SPEAKER_01]: I think I've yeah when it gets to 100 days everyone's like that's it. It's official and I'm like it's an 100 degrees out

[00:29:47] [SPEAKER_01]: It's not

[00:29:49] [SPEAKER_01]: Simply is that but yeah, we're approaching heart spooky season I guess and

[00:29:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Shutter has released this year a new series last year

[00:29:58] [SPEAKER_01]: They had the like horrors no 101 scariest moments or something like that. It was like a countdown show

[00:30:03] [SPEAKER_00]: It was really fun. Yeah, which I watched too

[00:30:05] [SPEAKER_00]: I wasn't even expecting to but just because it was a countdown show when I missed those

[00:30:10] [SPEAKER_01]: It was great

[00:30:11] [SPEAKER_01]: So this year there's a new one

[00:30:12] [SPEAKER_01]: It's called horrors greatest and then every episode is just a

[00:30:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Like theme like I think the new one this week is Jay-Harr

[00:30:19] [SPEAKER_01]: And it's just like an episode about Japanese horror and stuff talking had interviews

[00:30:22] [SPEAKER_01]: And it's cool that the people they've assembled to be in it is pretty interesting

[00:30:26] [SPEAKER_01]: It's something that's a little less exciting that feel like I remember

[00:30:28] [SPEAKER_01]: 101 greatest moments or it ever had a lot more like hypervile people

[00:30:32] [SPEAKER_01]: This is you know, it's producers critics. It's the usual crew and they did a

[00:30:36] [SPEAKER_01]: The first episode was just troops so you know would be like

[00:30:39] [SPEAKER_01]: Horty teenagers must die or whatever is one of the things and they talk about yeah

[00:30:43] [SPEAKER_01]: I kind of moments of that trope is stuff

[00:30:45] [SPEAKER_01]: So they did one that killer hillbylies one of the troops and that's

[00:30:49] [SPEAKER_01]: They've referenced Tucker and Dale Verseevil and I was watching it with some friends

[00:30:52] [SPEAKER_01]: And they had never seen Tucker and Dale Verseevil and I was like what?

[00:30:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Crazy

[00:30:56] [SPEAKER_01]: But I guess if you're not I mean I remember I remember hearing seeing this in college for the first time

[00:31:01] [SPEAKER_01]: I guess it came out when this come out 2010 so I didn't get to it until you know a couple years after it had come out

[00:31:06] [SPEAKER_01]: And I feel like this and like happened in the woods or sort of other peace and sure

[00:31:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, same timeframeish maybe I don't really remember exactly when Kevin the woods came out

[00:31:13] [SPEAKER_01]: But so anyway, yeah, so we watched talking to El Verseevil as a little more of that story

[00:31:17] [SPEAKER_01]: It's really rules. I haven't seen it in a really long time probably since college

[00:31:20] [SPEAKER_01]: And I think it is it's such a funny, you know

[00:31:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Inversion of that where it's the the killer hillbylies are really just two guys awkward around women

[00:31:28] [SPEAKER_01]: So when they're at the gas station they're just too shocked to say anything and so they look like

[00:31:34] [SPEAKER_01]: Like killer hillbylies for in in the get the point of view of the college kids and right?

[00:31:39] [SPEAKER_01]: And then they're happy to be fishing in the lake where some of them slips and falls and serve the girl and their friends

[00:31:45] [SPEAKER_01]: The girls friends see these two hillbylies dragging this girl out of the water into their canoe

[00:31:49] [SPEAKER_01]: And they think they're kidnapping her and it's like, you know

[00:31:52] [SPEAKER_01]: It's just one of those comedy of everything and really leaning into the whole all the tropes and miscommunications and stuff

[00:31:58] [SPEAKER_01]: The funny is bit of course is still the like us the woodchipper is probably the funniest bit to me

[00:32:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Right where the the the college kids are going to be storming the the the the old shack

[00:32:09] [SPEAKER_01]: The cabin the woods and one of them. I don't remember if it's Dale or Tucker whatever

[00:32:14] [SPEAKER_01]: It's talking about Alan Tudik is throwing logs in a woodchipper already been's over to pick up a log as one of them goes to tackle him

[00:32:20] [SPEAKER_01]: And of course misses and dives head first into the woodchipper

[00:32:24] [SPEAKER_01]: Silly shit like that yeah, it has been so long since I've seen this movie

[00:32:28] [SPEAKER_01]: I really got to rewatch this yeah, and then I was gonna say the funniest for me is when

[00:32:32] [SPEAKER_01]: That's Alan Tudik is is chainsawing a log and he hits a beehive inside the log

[00:32:37] [SPEAKER_01]: And is running with the chainsaw swinging at the bees like the end of Texas chainsaw massacre

[00:32:42] [SPEAKER_01]: When he's broadcasting in the street with the chainsaw that it looks like that and so you

[00:32:46] [SPEAKER_01]: It's just all silly stuff and the cops get involved. So yeah, Tucker and Dale verse evil

[00:32:51] [SPEAKER_01]: We're the rewatch you know it's very funny very inscat some good scary movements, you know you're talking talking cheek kind of thing

[00:32:55] [SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, so you know

[00:32:56] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I know I saw that I've seen this movie a couple of times

[00:32:59] [SPEAKER_00]: But I haven't watched it since like 2011 since the incident yes

[00:33:04] [SPEAKER_00]: I have it on Blu-ray and I was watching it in my freshman year of college with a few my other friends

[00:33:11] [SPEAKER_00]: And are right now to the door while we're watching the movie and we all got written up having beer in the room

[00:33:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Classic freshman year yeah exactly

[00:33:20] [SPEAKER_00]: And so after that like Tucker and Dale verse evil was just like it was a cursed film like yeah, I can't like if I

[00:33:26] [SPEAKER_00]: We're too watch it now would my RA show up and not think that and beer in my fridge

[00:33:32] [SPEAKER_00]: 100% I feel like it might I feel like that might happen. So that's so funny

[00:33:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we'll see you watching Mike so I guess with the cursed objects thing

[00:33:40] [SPEAKER_01]: I'll just roll right into this movie show which is from this year

[00:33:45] [SPEAKER_00]: Called Audity okay, I've been hearing about this. I really want to see it

[00:33:49] [SPEAKER_00]: And it just hasn't been playing anywhere near me so I haven't gotten around to it was it at a theater new year Mike or did you was it is it available

[00:33:54] [SPEAKER_00]: I know it's dreaming now

[00:33:58] [SPEAKER_01]: I think to rent is it's I

[00:33:59] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm as I think cool good to know but it is available and yes, so I

[00:34:05] [SPEAKER_01]: Checked it out so I'm the trailer for this like once and was like whoa

[00:34:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I don't even remember when I saw it before but I was like hell no

[00:34:12] [SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, this is a it's a great setup and this is from a guy that directed caveat

[00:34:18] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if you saw it was from I think last year it was from last year or the year before I think

[00:34:22] [SPEAKER_01]: It's a shutter original so like it that was his for or that was a big movie that I know him from

[00:34:28] [SPEAKER_01]: And this is about it's got such a great just like

[00:34:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Wow chefs chefs kiss cold open this woman alone

[00:34:35] [SPEAKER_01]: She's renovating this like kind of manor home in the English country side or whatever and there's like a

[00:34:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Stablish there's like a single corner in the house where they get cell phone service and like oh my god

[00:34:46] [SPEAKER_01]: Don't like oh don't don't step away. We can only get it here right so they're very isolated and

[00:34:50] [SPEAKER_01]: It's nighttime her husband works night the night shift at the at the nearby mental institution

[00:34:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and so she goes out to the after the car to get something she comes back inside closes the door

[00:35:02] [SPEAKER_01]: And all of a sudden knocking knock knock knock knock knock knock knock and she opens it and it's and it's great

[00:35:06] [SPEAKER_01]: Got the like the like the like medieval slit thing that like you slide the thing open

[00:35:09] [SPEAKER_01]: And you could see like the whole face of the person outside you know like a whatever

[00:35:12] [SPEAKER_01]: Instead of just little people so they open that and it's in it's a guy and he's like I've been

[00:35:17] [SPEAKER_01]: I was just watching you some stranger. I was just watching you and while you were in your car

[00:35:21] [SPEAKER_01]: You left the door open to the house and somebody's stuck in there. You have to let me in

[00:35:25] [SPEAKER_01]: He's gonna hurt you and just immediately like whoa

[00:35:30] [SPEAKER_01]: tension that you know what do you you believe this guy and the immediate back and forth and all the stuff and like

[00:35:35] [SPEAKER_01]: That creek you just heard behind you is that this old man or house settling or is there somebody in here all this stuff and then it's

[00:35:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Cut the title card one year later

[00:35:44] [SPEAKER_01]: He's like whoa she ain't like crazy and so

[00:35:48] [SPEAKER_01]: It evolves from there. So then then this woman it's the character sister owns an oddity shop like that's the

[00:35:56] [SPEAKER_01]: oddities thing okay, and

[00:35:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe she's got some kind of clear buoyant or

[00:36:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Like medium kind of abilities or something like that and she's come to this house to the matter house where her

[00:36:06] [SPEAKER_01]: Brother-in-law still lives and maybe we can solve what happened to the sister here kind of thing

[00:36:11] [SPEAKER_01]: And it is creepy as fuck and they have

[00:36:15] [SPEAKER_01]: This wooden man doll thing that doll like a mannequin thing that they's involved and it's like as soon as they show that

[00:36:21] [SPEAKER_01]: You're like this is the scariest thing that's ever been

[00:36:25] [SPEAKER_01]: This thing is bucks. I don't want to know whatever. This is a power

[00:36:29] [SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, it's really scary and creepy in there. There was a couple moments where I had like genuine like like goosebumps reaction to some stuff

[00:36:35] [SPEAKER_01]: I was like whoa, so yeah big big big

[00:36:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Oddities get it. I think we'll be real fun watch for spooky season the more remote the better when you watch it

[00:36:43] [SPEAKER_00]: I guess nice yeah, no, I really want to see this one

[00:36:46] [SPEAKER_00]: I've heard really good things and yeah, I didn't know it was available at home yet

[00:36:50] [SPEAKER_01]: So I think just last week or like very recently within last couple of days

[00:36:54] [SPEAKER_00]: It was streaming so sick awesome rentable awesome. So that's out of the I've got a few new releases

[00:36:59] [SPEAKER_00]: That uh I wanted to go throughout there Mike the first of which is D.D. Which this actually played with these Sundance film festival back in January

[00:37:06] [SPEAKER_00]: And this is one I got to watch a bunch of Sundance movies and this one filled up before I could get a chance to get a ticket to it

[00:37:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Which as little a bummed about because I've heard very good things and I watched it finally

[00:37:17] [SPEAKER_00]: It's good. I liked it a lot. It's a very charming coming at age story

[00:37:21] [SPEAKER_00]: And I think what's really interesting about this movie Mike is that this is about a 13 year old Asian American kid who is growing up

[00:37:29] [SPEAKER_00]: Specifically in the year 2007 doesn't eight maybe and so it is very much about

[00:37:35] [SPEAKER_00]: You know his experience about his family and it's sort of about like them as a unit

[00:37:40] [SPEAKER_00]: But it's also really about just like being a kid growing up in like the very early days of the internet

[00:37:45] [SPEAKER_00]: And it's it's very surreal to start seeing period pieces pop up about like about

[00:37:51] [SPEAKER_00]: Coming of age in the time when I came of age right yes, you know what I mean like I was 13 in the year 2007

[00:37:57] [SPEAKER_00]: You know, so like so it just feels like a and it does a very good job of capturing that period like capturing the essence

[00:38:03] [SPEAKER_00]: It's just like period specific details that they get really really right just you know

[00:38:08] [SPEAKER_00]: A bunch of 13 year olds at a pool party gather all together and like all right we're all gonna watch super bad on D.D

[00:38:13] [SPEAKER_00]: Like that kind of thing

[00:38:15] [SPEAKER_00]: And it's also very much about like kind of the beginning of social media a little bit

[00:38:20] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean it's a lot of like aim like instant message

[00:38:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's about YouTube was the next year. Do you have any?

[00:38:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah YouTube was already around

[00:38:26] [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah YouTube was just isn't five I think because yeah lazy Sunday wasn't 2005

[00:38:30] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh that's right. Yeah, but yeah and so part of the movie is him starting to like he kind of falls in

[00:38:36] [SPEAKER_00]: We're like a group of like skate kids and he's like their videographer and he's uploaded YouTube and stuff

[00:38:40] [SPEAKER_00]: Like that kind of thing and yeah, they're just like they're very early days of Facebook and my space and all all that stuff

[00:38:47] [SPEAKER_00]: And him trying to navigate there's this girl he likes

[00:38:49] [SPEAKER_00]: He's trying to like navigate her social media profiles to kind of figure out like how to talk to her through aim like while he's talking to her

[00:38:55] [SPEAKER_00]: But is this great moment where he is like you know like they're just talking through aim and she's like, oh what kind of movies do you like?

[00:39:01] [SPEAKER_00]: And he goes to her Facebook page to look up her favorite movies

[00:39:04] [SPEAKER_00]: And this kid like doesn't watch any movies and so he's like, oh, you know

[00:39:07] [SPEAKER_00]: I really love this one movie. I don't know if you've heard of it called a walk-tour

[00:39:10] [SPEAKER_00]: Remember

[00:39:14] [SPEAKER_00]: And it like totally sucks him. It's it's a very

[00:39:17] [SPEAKER_00]: It's it's really really fun. It's it's really really great really charming

[00:39:20] [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, D.D. Worth watching a lot of fun. Nice. Another twin piece connection, right? Isn't oh

[00:39:25] [SPEAKER_00]: It's Joan Chen is a place his mom who was yeah Josie Packard in twin peaks

[00:39:29] [SPEAKER_00]: So there's that too and she's phenomenal in it. She's so nice. Yes. Yeah, D.D. is really great

[00:39:34] [SPEAKER_00]: And then I watched Immaculate which is now streaming on a Hulu

[00:39:38] [SPEAKER_00]: I missed this one of his theaters and oh, yeah, it's all right

[00:39:41] [SPEAKER_00]: That's okay

[00:39:43] [SPEAKER_02]: It's good. You know

[00:39:44] [SPEAKER_00]: So it's basically you know the Immaculate and the first element came out within like three weeks of each other

[00:39:50] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, really unfortunate for Immaculate. Yes, and I think both movies

[00:39:54] [SPEAKER_00]: I think have stuff that works for them

[00:39:56] [SPEAKER_00]: I've had the first elements like great except for the stuff where it like has to be a prequel to the oh man

[00:40:01] [SPEAKER_00]: It's great

[00:40:02] [SPEAKER_01]: They named him Damian

[00:40:03] [SPEAKER_00]: All right, okay exactly whereas Immaculate is an original story

[00:40:07] [SPEAKER_00]: It's just like an unfortunate coincidence that they both have the exact same setup where

[00:40:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Here's this like you know American none who's traveled out to Italy to be part of this new convent right like that kind of thing and they both

[00:40:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Become pregnant through like means they don't really fully understand and all that stuff

[00:40:22] [SPEAKER_00]: That's it's very it's like a one-to-one remake of the first

[00:40:25] [SPEAKER_00]: Way this one has Sydney Sweeney in the lead role and I will say for it

[00:40:31] [SPEAKER_00]: I think she's really good and I have not been the biggest Sydney Sweeney fan as an actor in recent years

[00:40:37] [SPEAKER_00]: I've only seen a couple of movies with her in it

[00:40:39] [SPEAKER_00]: Although she's actually and I didn't realize she was in it, but she's in a month-to-fifth on Hollywood

[00:40:42] [SPEAKER_00]: She plays one of the flower kids

[00:40:44] [SPEAKER_00]: Really in that movie. Yeah, but you know of the of the ones that are like, you know starring Sydney Sweeney

[00:40:49] [SPEAKER_00]: You know, I've seen anyone but you which I think she is actively bad in

[00:40:53] [SPEAKER_00]: Thanks, she's awful in that movie Wow and I and I've seen Madam Webb which I also think she's actively bad

[00:40:59] [SPEAKER_00]: Fair yeah, and you know Madam Webb

[00:41:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Nobody's doing great work in that except for maybe Dakota Johnson

[00:41:05] [SPEAKER_00]: There's something going on with her performance that is kind of interesting, but yeah, I think you know

[00:41:10] [SPEAKER_00]: I have not watched you for ya. I don't know like a ton about like the acting works of Sydney Sweeney

[00:41:15] [SPEAKER_00]: But I do think she's pretty good in this movie like she's she's kind of locked into what it is and like is

[00:41:19] [SPEAKER_00]: Acts to do a lot of like very intense horror stuff towards the end of the movie and I think she pulls it off pretty well

[00:41:25] [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, and it's worth watching. It's there's a lot of really really fun solid horror stuff

[00:41:29] [SPEAKER_00]: It's not great. I don't think and it like is totally outclass by the first oh

[00:41:33] [SPEAKER_00]: And in almost every conceivable way, but it's pretty good solid. Yeah, I think there's a lot of really great imagery in the maculate

[00:41:40] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes, I would agree although I think the imagery and first open is better

[00:41:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, it's just gonna be one of those things

[00:41:46] [SPEAKER_01]: For that we'll be that just forever

[00:41:48] [SPEAKER_01]: You know like deep impact that over yet and like right there never not talked about together

[00:41:52] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, exactly. It's I don't want to like keep comparing it to first open, but like every time I like every few minutes while I was watching it

[00:41:58] [SPEAKER_00]: I was like man first element what a movie

[00:42:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah

[00:42:01] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I watched actually did did rewatch first home and I wasn't gonna talk about it

[00:42:05] [SPEAKER_01]: But every watch first home in a few weeks ago and yeah strong contender in the top ten for this year for Vey for sure

[00:42:11] [SPEAKER_01]: Nice yeah, which is what a flake movie. It's good stuff. It's good stuff. I'm actually pretty good

[00:42:16] [SPEAKER_00]: It's on who now people should watch it. So yeah, yeah, and then I'll throw out one more here before we get back into Mike's movies

[00:42:22] [SPEAKER_00]: I also watched another new release, which is available on shutter right now

[00:42:25] [SPEAKER_00]: This is a I think shutter original and it's called she is Conan

[00:42:28] [SPEAKER_00]: Which I saw this on like a couple of like you know best the year so far lists here and there

[00:42:34] [SPEAKER_00]: But I haven't really seen that many people talking about this

[00:42:36] [SPEAKER_00]: It is distributed about alter innocence, which is a a queer focused distribution company

[00:42:41] [SPEAKER_00]: They're the ones who also put out the people's joker and yeah, this is a sort of feminist queer

[00:42:46] [SPEAKER_00]: Retelling of the story of Conan the barbarian and so Conan in this version is a woman and is in fact

[00:42:52] [SPEAKER_00]: Reincarnated as like several different women over the course of the movie and so that I think there's like five or six

[00:42:57] [SPEAKER_00]: Different segments of the movie and they're all kind of depending different stages of Conan's life

[00:43:02] [SPEAKER_00]: And so the first part is like you know your barbarian stuff

[00:43:06] [SPEAKER_00]: Right, which is pretty fun and then it goes into a whole bunch of different things

[00:43:10] [SPEAKER_00]: Where it's sort of like re-incarnations of Conan in like different time periods and different like settings

[00:43:15] [SPEAKER_00]: So there's like you know a 70s art period. There's a modern kind of thing

[00:43:19] [SPEAKER_00]: There's a futuristic that it there's a lot of different things going on and throughout it all like Conan is

[00:43:24] [SPEAKER_00]: So there's like a sort of like psychosexual weird relationship with like a literal hellhound

[00:43:28] [SPEAKER_00]: So like who like sort of narrates the movie she's like the hellhound is like the framing device for the whole thing

[00:43:33] [SPEAKER_00]: And it's played by Alina Loanson from Shindler's List

[00:43:39] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, it's this movie is red. It's it's so unlike anything else out there

[00:43:44] [SPEAKER_00]: It's not like I don't think it's in my 10 at the moment right now because it is just so like it's so much going on

[00:43:50] [SPEAKER_00]: It's a little overwhelming but every time like

[00:43:53] [SPEAKER_00]: I was really lucky to what I was doing and I think the performances of the five women who play Conan are all really fantastic in different ways

[00:44:00] [SPEAKER_00]: And yeah, it's it's really really cool

[00:44:02] [SPEAKER_00]: So she is Conan check it out. It's it's unlike anything you will ever watch hell. Yeah, I think I heard about this probably on colors of the dark podcast because

[00:44:11] [SPEAKER_01]: Elriccane has been going to a lot of festivals because his film is in its festival run that he directed

[00:44:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so he's been reporting on a lot of movies

[00:44:19] [SPEAKER_01]: Or you know that he's been seeing at the festivals that are supposed to be coming out soon

[00:44:23] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, because so I'm a couple of months ago. I probably is where I heard about this or over the summer at some point

[00:44:28] [SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, I didn't know it was a shutter like I didn't know it was out on shutter

[00:44:31] [SPEAKER_01]: So that's very exciting definitely have to check that out because it sounded sounds cool to tell

[00:44:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, absolutely all right

[00:44:36] [SPEAKER_01]: So she is Conan it's on shutter. What else you can watch Mike? I got a few more movies

[00:44:40] [SPEAKER_01]: I watched also recently available on streaming or to rent I believe is your guest landmoses new

[00:44:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Kinds of kindness. Okay. I saw this in theaters when it came out hell yeah, and yeah, this is a wild fucking movie

[00:44:54] [SPEAKER_01]: You know, I guess anthology

[00:44:55] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't I don't know what the it's you know three it's a technology is right. I mean

[00:44:59] [SPEAKER_00]: It's there's three I mean they are sort of connected in

[00:45:03] [SPEAKER_01]: You know weird way right well, it's a lot of it's all the same actors which I thought was really interesting

[00:45:07] [SPEAKER_01]: It's all this or mostly the same actors

[00:45:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, but all playing different characters different characters and thematically. Yeah, they're broad

[00:45:12] [SPEAKER_00]: So there is a very very very small through line between the three shorts is there

[00:45:17] [SPEAKER_00]: There is yeah, because they're all called like Rmf oh

[00:45:21] [SPEAKER_00]: Or whatever right and so there's this there's this one character

[00:45:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Rmf who does kind of making appearance in all three books. That's sure I forgot about that. Yeah, good point

[00:45:28] [SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, what like the first and third are like very clearly thematic connected between you know

[00:45:33] [SPEAKER_01]: submission dominance, you know all that stuff and then the second one I was like

[00:45:39] [SPEAKER_01]: Interesting, we steeple my fingers and lean forward

[00:45:43] [SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, all the performance is really great

[00:45:45] [SPEAKER_01]: I think it's it's so fun that you're a ghost land the most like tricked us all to getting him in the mainstream and then he was like got you fuckers

[00:45:53] [SPEAKER_01]: Like made this for me

[00:45:55] [SPEAKER_01]: So that's very exciting

[00:45:57] [SPEAKER_01]: between him and like look at Luka Guadadilla. It's like hell yeah the freaks are back baby, right?

[00:46:02] [SPEAKER_01]: You know

[00:46:03] [SPEAKER_01]: So

[00:46:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean I guess the maybe the third one is not if I had like pick a favorite

[00:46:08] [SPEAKER_01]: I think the third one was my favorite um yeah of the shorts or segments or whatever

[00:46:12] [SPEAKER_01]: But it was very funny one of my friends

[00:46:13] [SPEAKER_01]: I was watching into the discord and one of my friends popped in and

[00:46:17] [SPEAKER_01]: He was like okay, what have I missed and it was right at the beginning of the third segment

[00:46:21] [SPEAKER_01]: And I was like well, it's the real shorts so like they're not really like you know

[00:46:24] [SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't matter like here we go. This is this is what we're doing yeah and like within like 20 minutes

[00:46:28] [SPEAKER_01]: He's like no, there has to be more like I can't

[00:46:31] [SPEAKER_01]: I have to have missed something. Yeah, he's like I have to like there's something

[00:46:35] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm not connected to it. I was like no you're not like it is just this weird

[00:46:40] [SPEAKER_01]: So there's very fun and yeah, I thought I thought it was freaky and cool and weird

[00:46:44] [SPEAKER_01]: And it's exciting to see you know him building this mainstream

[00:46:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Troop of actors that want to work with him all the time. It's you know particularly I guess I have a stone

[00:47:49] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah killing of sacred deer is insane that's a really weird movie

[00:47:53] [SPEAKER_01]: Almost like rolled straight into it after kinds of kindness, but I was like maybe not

[00:49:27] [SPEAKER_01]: And it's this they're at the private island and it's of course the drugs in the alcohol and the

[00:49:32] [SPEAKER_01]: And the the glamour of it all and they're just like this is amazing and then they start being like wait

[00:49:36] [SPEAKER_01]: What day is how long we been here like this is this whole year

[00:49:39] [SPEAKER_01]: And then it starts getting into this you know things may not be what they seem kind of right a plot and all this stuff and what's going on

[00:49:46] [SPEAKER_01]: And who are these people we we jetted off with literally like people we've never met before and what's going on

[00:49:51] [SPEAKER_01]: And there's lots of like great

[00:49:53] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't came as my piece the wrong word, but like how about locking pops up for two scenes Gina Davis is in this for two scenes Christian slators in this

[00:49:59] [SPEAKER_01]: So I don't know she got a really great cast and I think the twisty attorney

[00:50:04] [SPEAKER_01]: You know reveal of what's going on and who knows what and all that stuff is really fun if not fucked up very fucked up

[00:50:10] [SPEAKER_01]: But if I'm exciting movie and Zoe craves directs the hell out of it. It looks so good

[00:50:15] [SPEAKER_01]: I would I really hope this like blossoms into a full like horror directing career for her because she

[00:50:21] [SPEAKER_01]: It would like her just doing like a straight-up slager. I think would fucking rule because

[00:50:25] [SPEAKER_01]: This has a lot of setups and moments of stuff like that

[00:50:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Really like some really cool stylized stuff, so yeah big I was big fan of bling twice

[00:50:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Nice yeah, I've heard that Zoe craves is a big student of film she like really like just really loves movies like I

[00:50:37] [SPEAKER_00]: Guess she and chin and Tate and we're dating. I had no idea about this. Oh really I saw another in the crittering closet thing together

[00:50:43] [SPEAKER_00]: But I didn't know that that's why I guess yeah, they're together back according to chin and Tate

[00:50:46] [SPEAKER_00]: And he's like yeah, all she does all day is wash movies

[00:50:49] [SPEAKER_00]: So I'm planning her schedule around like going to movies the new Beverly cinema and all that all that kind of stuff

[00:50:53] [SPEAKER_00]: So that's awesome cool love that yeah, I really want to see the link twice

[00:50:56] [SPEAKER_00]: I it's been playing for a couple of weeks now and I just haven't gotten around to it

[00:51:00] [SPEAKER_01]: I really want to I've heard good things. Yeah, there's so few as well. Yeah, there was there is still like it's not in relegated to the like oh

[00:51:06] [SPEAKER_01]: There's a 3 p.m. Showing like one showing like there's still a lot there's still a handful per day

[00:51:11] [SPEAKER_01]: And but there were only like four of us in there so I like I feel like it's at the tail end of that

[00:51:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, for sure so get get getting like you can't all right

[00:51:18] [SPEAKER_01]: All right, that's bling twice and you got one more new release of talk about my I do have one more movie. Yes if you've been a long time listener

[00:51:24] [SPEAKER_01]: I guess you'll know I'm a

[00:51:27] [SPEAKER_01]: I couldn't think of a fun Jeremy saw me a stand name

[00:51:32] [SPEAKER_01]: But a big Joe in your song the paper. Yeah

[00:51:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's it now that

[00:51:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah big big fan of his movies and he has a new one that just hit Netflix and his pop it off apparently

[00:51:43] [SPEAKER_01]: I saw it's been number one for a few days or something I saw yeah, no people seem really into this one

[00:51:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes, and that is a rebel ridge

[00:51:49] [SPEAKER_01]: Um, which uh, you know like I said just came out on

[00:51:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Netflix whoa that was crazy just came out on

[00:51:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Netflix last week or a few days ago and it's about this guy played by Aaron Pierre who was mid-sized sedan in the beach that makes you old

[00:52:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and he fucking fools in this movie

[00:52:07] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, he should have opened for Lady Raven and trapped to continue the cinematic universe

[00:52:12] [SPEAKER_01]: However, he did die an old so does die an old like yeah, there's there's the there

[00:52:17] [SPEAKER_01]: 100% expected mid-sized sedan to show up in trap, right especially because there's they like introduced in that movie

[00:52:23] [SPEAKER_01]: You're like oh this rat this guy this this person like really gave me my break and it's like the whoever kid cut

[00:52:28] [SPEAKER_01]: He's cut it. Yeah

[00:52:30] [SPEAKER_01]: That was like this kind of he mid-sized a day

[00:52:34] [SPEAKER_01]: He's in this movie Aaron Pierre and

[00:52:36] [SPEAKER_01]: He's this guy. He's writing into this like small town in Louisiana with a bag full of money to pay his cousin's bail

[00:52:42] [SPEAKER_01]: To get him out and he is a casted by some police who determined you know in the civil for-furture thing that the

[00:52:50] [SPEAKER_01]: This money must be illegally illicitly gained and therefore we can seize this money from you

[00:52:56] [SPEAKER_01]: And so they do and they seize every dollar he's got left and he basically vows revenge

[00:53:03] [SPEAKER_01]: But it is it is also sort of like an anti-action movie like there is a lot of

[00:53:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Action stuff in it, but it is not

[00:53:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe the kind of like shoot about John Wick thing that we've come to expect in a lot of these kind of movies

[00:53:14] [SPEAKER_01]: I think so that it does I think really undercut that in a really interesting and fun way

[00:53:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, or subvert that rather and yeah, and so fear Rob is in this and I don't know like I know who she is

[00:53:26] [SPEAKER_01]: But like holy shit. She's great Don Johnson is amazing in this. Yeah, I had it really fun time with this

[00:53:32] [SPEAKER_01]: It's exciting and tense and and it and it's the thing that's only a does a lot if you've seen green room

[00:53:36] [SPEAKER_01]: I believe ruin where it's just that very slow

[00:53:39] [SPEAKER_01]: Like believable real

[00:53:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Ratchet of tension over than hour or whatever where you're just like just lots of little small things slowly

[00:53:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Adop until it's like explosions of

[00:53:49] [SPEAKER_01]: In those movies violence and gore but that's a much in this movie. It does have moments of that

[00:53:54] [SPEAKER_01]: But it is not quite as a graphic or gore. I saw the I think it was an interview with

[00:53:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Where if we was Roxanna Hadaddi or something he did an interview with somebody where he was sort of wanted to

[00:54:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Experiment and see if he could write a script that does not end in the entire cast dying

[00:54:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Like well, okay, yeah, it just is

[00:54:11] [SPEAKER_01]: And so yeah, it's got to it's got to be that so you have a bit of big big rebel rich man big Sony a fan excited that he got one baby

[00:54:17] [SPEAKER_00]: He's best no I'm excited about this too

[00:54:19] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I have not had the chance to watch rebel grids yet. It came out this past weekend

[00:54:23] [SPEAKER_00]: But I was in New York stuck in a house with no Wi-Fi. Yeah, so I could not stop

[00:54:27] [SPEAKER_00]: Ages exactly I literally could not watch rebel rage

[00:54:31] [SPEAKER_00]: But I'm hoping to watch it like as soon as I can

[00:54:33] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm excited that you know Jeremy Sony yeah, I seems to have gotten like a big win with this one

[00:54:38] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, you know blue ruin and green room were both like pretty well-planned movies people like them a lot

[00:54:42] [SPEAKER_00]: And then there was hold the dark which was also Netflix original I think

[00:54:47] [SPEAKER_00]: And I remember being pretty excited for that and being pretty disappointed by it

[00:54:51] [SPEAKER_00]: I didn't like it that much. I know you were more fond of that one

[00:54:54] [SPEAKER_00]: But that was partially because you got to go see it like at the Alamo draft house with Jeremy Sony

[00:54:57] [SPEAKER_00]: In attendance and all that kind of stuff right? Yeah, yeah, I got to see that on it

[00:55:01] [SPEAKER_01]: So on a big screen, you know where most people are not gonna especially this

[00:55:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes, oh man. I would love to see rebel rage on a big stream

[00:55:07] [SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, so Q&A you kind of you know you kind of buy into the hype

[00:55:11] [SPEAKER_01]: Sure, when you see stuff like that so I would but I haven't I haven't watched it since then

[00:55:15] [SPEAKER_01]: So maybe if I give it another try I'd give give some reappraisal I think

[00:55:18] [SPEAKER_01]: But even that movie has that slow rash of tension until there's that giant issue out at the end right

[00:55:23] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, fucking rule

[00:55:25] [SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, it's good stuff

[00:55:27] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, very cool. So rebel ridge is on Netflix right now and yeah, I got to watch that like a sap

[00:55:32] [SPEAKER_01]: I've heard anything about it like five years. I don't know if you saw all that stuff too jumple

[00:55:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Yiga apparently was originally attached for it's I forgot about yeah, apparently he would like had filmed a lot of it

[00:55:41] [SPEAKER_00]: And then just suddenly dropped out

[00:55:42] [SPEAKER_00]: Which is very strange

[00:55:44] [SPEAKER_00]: But uh, yeah, yeah, not sure what happened there, but yeah rebel ridge it's on it

[00:55:48] [SPEAKER_00]: It's out in Netflix now and then I've got a few movies that I watched on my planes mic

[00:55:52] [SPEAKER_00]: I got to talk about the plane watch

[00:55:54] [SPEAKER_00]: I gotta tell you about a plane movies here

[00:55:55] [SPEAKER_00]: So as I've talked about on the podcast many times over the years

[00:55:58] [SPEAKER_00]: I have a strategy when it comes to the movies that I watch on my plane for the most part

[00:56:02] [SPEAKER_00]: And I try to make it movies that I have wanted to see but like don't care about so much that like if it gets interrupted by like a pilot announcements

[00:56:10] [SPEAKER_00]: Like I got to be mad, you know

[00:56:12] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not gonna be mad about that no matter what it's annoying and I take forever, but

[00:56:16] [SPEAKER_00]: But like I'm not like I'll be able to kind of just get back into it easily like it's not a big deal

[00:56:20] [SPEAKER_00]: So I ended up watching I have four flights because there's like you know, there's I have to lay over many Apple

[00:56:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Two and two yeah exactly so I watched a movie each flight first flight. I watched babes

[00:56:30] [SPEAKER_00]: Which is the new movie from Pamela Adlon creator of better things on FX

[00:56:35] [SPEAKER_00]: It's her directorial debut and it stars a lot of Glazer and Michelle Bato and this is a very very fun charming comedy

[00:56:42] [SPEAKER_00]: Basically a lot of Glazer and Michelle Bato are two women who have been best friends their entire life

[00:56:47] [SPEAKER_00]: Michelle Bato just had a baby

[00:56:49] [SPEAKER_00]: And has a kid already

[00:56:50] [SPEAKER_00]: With her husband played by Hassan Manage and a lot of Glazer has this one night stand with this guy gets pregnant

[00:56:56] [SPEAKER_00]: And then discovers something has happened to the guy that like he actually can't be involved

[00:57:01] [SPEAKER_00]: I feel like I don't want to say what it is but at the same time

[00:57:03] [SPEAKER_00]: It's like the guy has died

[00:57:06] [SPEAKER_00]: Shortly after their one night stand and so he's so he obviously can't be involved

[00:57:10] [SPEAKER_00]: But she decides to have the baby anyway, and so it's about her like her journey like being pregnant

[00:57:15] [SPEAKER_00]: And like deciding to be a single mother and all that

[00:57:17] [SPEAKER_00]: Super funny super fun. I actually never really watched broad city

[00:57:21] [SPEAKER_00]: But from what I understand it's very broad city-esque this movie if you like a lot of Glazer style of humor

[00:57:26] [SPEAKER_00]: Then babes is for you. It's very much in that wheelhouse, but I did watch better things

[00:57:31] [SPEAKER_00]: I was a huge fan of better things. I think this movie has a lot of what I like to have better things in it

[00:57:35] [SPEAKER_00]: This kind of like nuanced portrayal of motherhood and different like things from the female perspective and all that stuff

[00:57:42] [SPEAKER_00]: It's really great. So I had a very fun time with babes. It's really funny

[00:57:45] [SPEAKER_00]: Very charming

[00:57:46] [SPEAKER_00]: People should watch it. It's good. I've seen it compares like bridesmaids and things like that

[00:57:50] [SPEAKER_00]: And it's not like as outrageous as bridesmaids is I don't think

[00:57:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Right, but yeah, it's it's a really really fun time. Nice. Yeah, I think I remember producer Colin telling me about this because he went to

[00:58:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Over the summer a handful of times

[00:58:02] [SPEAKER_01]: They they do this like Monday night mystery movie thing like at the AC or whatever

[00:58:06] [SPEAKER_00]: They do like a five dollar like you pay five dollars the cheaper movie price

[00:58:08] [SPEAKER_00]: But then it's like a surprise like no matter what you get yeah like you get what you get kind of thing

[00:58:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's usually I think he said it's usually something coming out in the next couple weeks or whatever right yeah

[00:58:18] [SPEAKER_01]: And this was one of the ones that they saw and he was like he was really glad that he went because you know

[00:58:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Definitely one of the things that he would not have picked to see that's you know when it was out like

[00:58:26] [SPEAKER_01]: I went every um so you know got to see something he would have never otherwise seen and enjoyed it

[00:58:30] [SPEAKER_01]: That was pretty funny and so now remember him talking about I think they're like it's like, you know bridesmaids

[00:58:34] [SPEAKER_01]: But for moms but not as crazy as bridesmaids

[00:58:36] [SPEAKER_02]: Right I hate for that

[00:58:38] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, absolutely that's babes

[00:58:40] [SPEAKER_00]: I was going to watch my first flight my second flight is a movie that you know

[00:58:43] [SPEAKER_00]: I did want to see in theaters, but I just couldn't muster the energy to do it

[00:58:47] [SPEAKER_00]: Because I couldn't bring myself to sometimes it'd be like that. Yeah, I couldn't bring myself to go to the theater to see this one

[00:58:53] [SPEAKER_00]: And it's been on Netflix for a little while haven't ended up watching at home either

[00:58:55] [SPEAKER_00]: But it was on Delta Airlines is a thing and so I watched it there that is ghost busters frozen Empire

[00:59:02] [SPEAKER_01]: I was wondering why when and why you had watched this

[00:59:05] [SPEAKER_00]: And so yeah, you know I you know it's not that I'm like a diehard ghost busters guy

[00:59:09] [SPEAKER_00]: But if there's a new ghost busters movie out I am like interested

[00:59:12] [SPEAKER_00]: I do want to watch it. I have enough affection for the original ghost busters that I will watch

[00:59:17] [SPEAKER_00]: Whatever that is ghost busters related

[00:59:20] [SPEAKER_00]: But man, I don't know anymore

[00:59:23] [SPEAKER_00]: He's like looking in the mirror like do I still want to go see ghosts busters? Yes

[00:59:28] [SPEAKER_00]: I think what really broke me with that kind of thing with like seeing like excited when I like watch like big franchise movies and stuff

[00:59:35] [SPEAKER_00]: Like there are like a lot of franchises that I'm pretty into you know that I'm that I'm like all right

[00:59:39] [SPEAKER_00]: You know no matter what I'm gonna go see venom three or whatever because Justin Furious 25

[00:59:44] [SPEAKER_00]: Exactly, and at a certain point I think the movie that broke me was I I end up going to see

[00:59:50] [SPEAKER_00]: Fantastic beasts the crimes of Grindelwald. I think there's the third one for the secret was the secrets of double were the third one

[00:59:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Was it a part two like didn't they split it up or am I just a man? No that I think that grievance

[01:00:00] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm thinking of the third one which I think was called the secrets of double door

[01:00:04] [SPEAKER_00]: That sounds right because yeah second one was crimes of Grindelwald and secret someone was one with Matt's

[01:00:07] [SPEAKER_00]: Michaelson instead of Johnny Depp he was really fast

[01:00:09] [SPEAKER_00]: Anyway, I went to go see that like four weeks after it came out because I was like well I gotta go see it

[01:00:17] [SPEAKER_00]: Then I would just sat there like in a theater with like one other person on the other's opposite side

[01:00:22] [SPEAKER_00]: I was just bored at it my mind and like what am I doing this for? Yeah, right why am I doing this to myself you know

[01:00:28] [SPEAKER_00]: And so I really kind of cool down and like the stuff I really don't care about and

[01:00:33] [SPEAKER_00]: Thing is ghostbusters frozen empire is a direct sequel to Ghostbusters afterlife

[01:00:37] [SPEAKER_00]: Which is the previous ghost which is movie

[01:00:39] [SPEAKER_00]: Which was I think a pretty solid success when it came out however ghostbusters after life is movie

[01:00:44] [SPEAKER_00]: I did not like for

[01:00:46] [SPEAKER_00]: And it's a weird thing where like I actually do like a lot of elements of it and I kind of like and I've been I sort of feel the same way

[01:00:52] [SPEAKER_00]: Here where I'm like these could be like pretty decent kids adventure movies if they didn't also have to be ghostbusters

[01:00:58] [SPEAKER_00]: Moofy right

[01:00:59] [SPEAKER_00]: You know after life especially like the first hour or so

[01:01:03] [SPEAKER_00]: Before they get like all the other ghostbusters involved and before it like that's really heavy with callbacks and stuff

[01:01:07] [SPEAKER_00]: It's like it like pretty effectively captures like that sort of like you know 80s

[01:01:11] [SPEAKER_00]: E.T. you know kids spirit kind of thing and then it has to be ghostbusters, you know

[01:01:16] [SPEAKER_00]: And so frozen empire just feels sort of aimless

[01:01:19] [SPEAKER_00]: There's some fun stuff in here and some fun like additions to the ghostbusters like stuff

[01:01:24] [SPEAKER_00]: There's like cool gadgets that they invent for this movie and a couple of fun actions set pieces

[01:01:29] [SPEAKER_00]: There's way too many characters in this thing and I have not seen afterlife since theater

[01:01:33] [SPEAKER_00]: So I have like I don't have really a connection to any of the afterlife characters and so I remember a few of them like

[01:01:38] [SPEAKER_00]: Hey, Paul Rudd's in these movies and you know carry cool and is the mom in these movies which man

[01:01:43] [SPEAKER_00]: You were on the left over is you gave the best to performance that any TV show has ever seen

[01:01:49] [SPEAKER_00]: Why are you the mom and the ghostbusters movies?

[01:01:51] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, Dan Aquarides is a bigger role in this one which is kind of fun because you know

[01:01:54] [SPEAKER_00]: He's he lives to just spout ghostbusters jargon. That's that's his thing

[01:01:57] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, I don't know it's just the whole thing felt kind of flat for me

[01:02:01] [SPEAKER_00]: It kept my attention like I wasn't bored during my flight

[01:02:03] [SPEAKER_00]: Which you know is is the key fact it's why I chose ghosts versus frozen empire because like at least be like you know

[01:02:09] [SPEAKER_00]: I know it at things. I won't feel nothing

[01:02:12] [SPEAKER_01]: I'll just be looking at the back of the chair even though you're looking at a screen and just not absorbing anything

[01:02:17] [SPEAKER_00]: Exactly this one also features a ghost that talks which I don't think any of the other ones have and I think Phoebe is the character's name

[01:02:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Mechanic racist character who's supposed to be the daughter of

[01:02:27] [SPEAKER_00]: Egon or the brand daughter of Egon maybe daughter of Carrie Coold who is the daughter of Egon?

[01:02:32] [SPEAKER_00]: She has sort of like a quasi romance with the ghost

[01:02:35] [SPEAKER_00]: Fuck yeah, and it's a very like clearly queer quoted like lesbian relationship between the two of them

[01:02:41] [SPEAKER_00]: But they never let them ghost kiss

[01:02:42] [SPEAKER_00]: And it's a it's a real bump

[01:02:44] [SPEAKER_00]: That's a shame

[01:02:46] [SPEAKER_00]: So we got there's ideas here. There's some fun stuff. I mean, I kind of like said it was like doing something a little bit different with it

[01:02:51] [SPEAKER_00]: And I brought it back to New York which is a which is a plus because that's like that feels like that's a necessity for ghost busters

[01:02:56] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, I don't know frozen empire

[01:02:58] [SPEAKER_00]: It's it's fine to watch and a plane so

[01:03:00] [SPEAKER_00]: There you take we'll take that yeah

[01:03:03] [SPEAKER_00]: And then on my flight back my flight's back. I watched two more movies the first of which was new movie that came out

[01:03:09] [SPEAKER_00]: It is a Spanish French co-production that actually got nominated for a best animated feature of the Oscars last year

[01:03:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Really, but it didn't get any kind of US release until this year

[01:03:18] [SPEAKER_00]: So I'm counting as a 2024 movie because you know

[01:03:20] [SPEAKER_00]: I know better than you can

[01:03:23] [SPEAKER_00]: And that is robot dreams. Are you familiar with this at all Mike?

[01:03:26] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think I've heard of this at all. No, okay. Well, it was you if you well

[01:03:30] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I guess you do watch the Oscars

[01:03:31] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you must have seen a true second clip of it as they announced its name

[01:03:35] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, robot dreams is a new animated feature that is fantastic

[01:03:40] [SPEAKER_00]: I love this movie

[01:03:41] [SPEAKER_00]: This is so so good. This is an animated movie about this dog who's living in 1980s New York City and already I'm like

[01:03:48] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm in that's great

[01:03:49] [SPEAKER_00]: Same-less yeah, but it's a dog who's very lonely. You know, he sees everybody else has friends and

[01:03:54] [SPEAKER_00]: He you know wants a friend of his own and he lives in a world that it's you know animals are the population

[01:03:59] [SPEAKER_00]: It's sort of like a bogek horseman kind of thing where it's all right, okay, no there's no humans

[01:04:03] [SPEAKER_00]: So the dog is living in the department in New York City he wants a friend and

[01:04:06] [SPEAKER_00]: He builds himself a robot and so the dog and the robot quickly become best friends and the first like 20 minutes of this movie

[01:04:13] [SPEAKER_00]: Are just the happiest thing in the world you're watching this dog in this world about be friends

[01:04:17] [SPEAKER_00]: Hagen at New York City dancing to September by earth wind and fire beautiful

[01:04:22] [SPEAKER_00]: All that stuff and then they go to the beach

[01:04:25] [SPEAKER_00]: They're hanging out at the beach and they're having a great time a great day at the beach and night night falls

[01:04:30] [SPEAKER_00]: And they're the last ones on the beach and they're like laying on the ground and the dog gets up and tells the robot

[01:04:35] [SPEAKER_00]: Hey, you gotta get up by the way. There's no dialogue in this movie

[01:04:37] [SPEAKER_00]: It's a completely dialogue free movie. It's all just through expression and animation and music and sound and all that

[01:04:43] [SPEAKER_00]: But the dog is like kind of telling the robot you gotta get up but the robot can't move and

[01:04:47] [SPEAKER_00]: There's like something wrong with a robot like he's like something is broken and he can't he can't move

[01:04:52] [SPEAKER_00]: And the dog can't get him up off the beach and is like being forced off of the beach because it's like

[01:04:56] [SPEAKER_00]: You know, it's closing time for the beach. Yeah, so promises the robot is gonna come back the next day

[01:05:01] [SPEAKER_00]: But now the beach is closed for the season

[01:05:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh no

[01:05:03] [SPEAKER_00]: And what follows is the saddest movie I've ever seen

[01:05:08] [SPEAKER_00]: I was in emotional shambles watching robot dreams

[01:05:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Which yeah, it's this it's about them trying to get back together and it's not quite working

[01:05:18] [SPEAKER_00]: It this movie really made me feel like movies like in the mood for love or past lives did

[01:05:24] [SPEAKER_00]: Just just completely devastated me and it's really about their relationship

[01:05:29] [SPEAKER_00]: And it's you know, it's sort of has romantic undertones between the dog and the robot also

[01:05:32] [SPEAKER_00]: Which is interesting but yeah, no, it's it really took me for a ride and like I said

[01:05:37] [SPEAKER_00]: There's there's no dialogue in this thing and the anime

[01:05:40] [SPEAKER_00]: It's all just told through animation. It looks so great and

[01:05:43] [SPEAKER_00]: No, it's fantastic. Robot dreams. It's great hell yeah. I guess I'll have to I mean I guess it's available

[01:05:48] [SPEAKER_00]: It's on delta TV

[01:05:49] [SPEAKER_00]: I think it might be streaming on Hulu. It's a neon release and I think they release all their movies on Hulu now

[01:05:56] [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, it might be available there

[01:05:58] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, it's well worth checking out. I think it flew under a lot of people's radars over the last like year two and

[01:06:04] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I think it's it's really fantastic

[01:06:05] [SPEAKER_00]: Like it's it's not it might be among my favorite movies the right now. Wow. So yeah worth watching

[01:06:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, watch robot dreams them. I also watched Aaron Brockovich

[01:06:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Which is not a new movie

[01:06:16] [SPEAKER_00]: So completely different it seems. Yeah, and what and one that I did want to see and like you know cared about but like you know

[01:06:25] [SPEAKER_00]: I'm gonna watch Aaron Brockovich and so I did

[01:06:29] [SPEAKER_00]: And yeah, it's great. It's really fun

[01:06:30] [SPEAKER_00]: I like this movie a lot it is a Steven soda right movie with Julia Roberts as Aaron Brockovich

[01:06:35] [SPEAKER_00]: A lot of people have seen this already. I don't think I need to go too deeply into it

[01:06:39] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, Julia Roberts won an Oscar for this movie and it's easy to see why she's fantastic

[01:06:43] [SPEAKER_00]: And it's she's really great also Albert Finney's fantastic at this movie too

[01:06:46] [SPEAKER_00]: And yeah, there's also this subplight with Aaron Eckhart as

[01:06:50] [SPEAKER_00]: Like her boyfriend like a star of the core himself star of the core himself

[01:06:53] [SPEAKER_00]: The as a biker boyfriend that stuff didn't work as much for me, but the stuff with that's really just focused on

[01:07:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Aaron Brockovich doing her job and doing it very well

[01:07:02] [SPEAKER_00]: And you know being a whistleblower for like this, you know, a real life thing that happened with the poison water

[01:07:08] [SPEAKER_00]: That this company PG and he had like basically like destroyed an entire town with

[01:07:13] [SPEAKER_00]: You know that kind of thing

[01:07:15] [SPEAKER_00]: You know, it's it's the kind of thing that it's you've seen that in other movies before it would make a great

[01:07:19] [SPEAKER_00]: Double feature with dark waters

[01:07:20] [SPEAKER_00]: Oh baby throw on that out there

[01:07:22] [SPEAKER_00]: But this is a much like poppy your version of that. I feel like dark waters is like pretty like intense

[01:07:28] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, very very grim movie and I think Aaron Brockovich just it plays more to pops and

[01:07:33] [SPEAKER_00]: Subilities and they maybe just the fact that Julia Roberts is the star of it and all that stuff

[01:07:37] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, Steven soda burgers the directs and yeah, it looks fantastic. It's great

[01:07:40] [SPEAKER_00]: It like moves really quickly and efficiently and yeah, no, Aaron Brockovich. It good movie

[01:07:44] [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah people should watch it. Nice. I'm actually never seen Aaron Brockovich either had I yeah, maybe I will one day too as well

[01:07:51] [SPEAKER_00]: There you go all right and then

[01:07:53] [SPEAKER_00]: Did you have any other movies that you wanted to throw out their mic or do I should I toss out my last two things?

[01:07:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Segalic here I believe I'm done

[01:08:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, no, that's really it. No, okay, great

[01:08:02] [SPEAKER_00]: Then I'll just toss out a couple of rewatches real quick Beatles use. I watched the original Beatles use which you know

[01:08:08] [SPEAKER_00]: I've seen many times over the years. I love Beatles use it is a you know a formered

[01:08:12] [SPEAKER_00]: Movie for me absolutely and the reason I watched it

[01:08:15] [SPEAKER_00]: You know this past weekend

[01:08:16] [SPEAKER_00]: Beetlejuice Beetlejuice just came out the sequel the 30 years in the making it's finally happened

[01:08:21] [SPEAKER_00]: Beetlejuice too. We've been clamoring for it. Yeah, I mean some people have I guess

[01:08:26] [SPEAKER_00]: It's doing very well and yeah, no, I

[01:08:29] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm excited to see it. I do want to see Beetlejuice too, but it was just this past weekend where I was you know

[01:08:34] [SPEAKER_00]: stuck into York and couldn't really do anything else besides just be there

[01:08:37] [SPEAKER_00]: So I did not get to go see Beetlejuice too

[01:08:39] [SPEAKER_00]: I am gonna see it this week, but while I was in the house with no Wi-Fi

[01:08:43] [SPEAKER_00]: That house did have cable and I

[01:08:46] [SPEAKER_00]: Beetlejuice playing on TV so I watched the original

[01:08:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Hell yeah, and I have often said that one of the greatest joys in this life is turning on your TV

[01:08:55] [SPEAKER_00]: Turning on Beetlejuice and it happening to be starting at the day-o-seet

[01:08:58] [SPEAKER_00]: Hell yeah, which is one of those things like the Beetlejuice plays on TV so often that you can make that happen pretty frequently

[01:09:05] [SPEAKER_00]: Pretty good chance, but I did watch it from pretty much the beginning this time and

[01:09:09] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, no, it holds up. It's so great so fun. So it reminds you of like a time like a a better time for Tim Burton as a filmmaker

[01:09:17] [SPEAKER_00]: But it sounds like hey, maybe he's coming back Beetlejuice too. That was huge. Yeah, I know we saw

[01:09:21] [SPEAKER_01]: Was that a friend's wedding recently and we were talking about movies or whatever and somebody was like oh

[01:09:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Man, I can't wait for Beetlejuice too and I was like, okay, yes

[01:09:32] [SPEAKER_02]: I'm sure it's gonna be good. I'm sure but a little bit like it's kind of like my wife shit or take as in it

[01:09:36] [SPEAKER_02]: So like yeah, what a shake it will be great. Um, well, like

[01:09:39] [SPEAKER_02]: Sure, whatever

[01:09:41] [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I've had that inner battle because uh, you know

[01:09:45] [SPEAKER_00]: As much as I you know, I'm interested in Beetlejuice too. I love Beetlejuice and all that stuff Tim Burton has made a good movie

[01:09:51] [SPEAKER_00]: And I don't know I would say I would say sweety type as probably his last like really good movie

[01:09:56] [SPEAKER_00]: You know, Frank and we these are right. It's pretty good. It's fun. But Frank and we need a lot

[01:10:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, but you know, it's it's been a long time since I really really loved a Tim Burton movie

[01:10:05] [SPEAKER_00]: And I think it's it would be even longer since there was like a consensus pick for like this is a great timber

[01:10:11] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you know like I think the last like time I was I guess the last time everybody was like kind of university like yes

[01:10:16] [SPEAKER_00]: This is good is big fish right?

[01:10:18] [SPEAKER_00]: Maybe that's a movie that definitely exists. Do you not remember big fish? No idea remember big fish

[01:10:23] [SPEAKER_00]: Okay, I made that that's all I think I got some Oscar play right to anything

[01:10:25] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I think you got some Oscar love at the time and I and you know what your probably right because I think fish

[01:10:30] [SPEAKER_00]: I feel like like years ago when I finally watched it it was like one of those things

[01:10:34] [SPEAKER_00]: It's like oh yeah, I finally got across this one off the list

[01:10:36] [SPEAKER_00]: I feel like it's definitely lost a lot of stature in recent years and maybe that's just because of like the actual loss of stature of Tim Burton himself

[01:10:43] [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know sleepy hollow maybe the last time

[01:10:46] [SPEAKER_00]: I was going to say sleepy hollow is a joke, but I was in a real rules. It's great

[01:10:49] [SPEAKER_00]: It does really yeah, it's really really fun. Yeah, let's say Mars attacks

[01:10:53] [SPEAKER_00]: Let's since we all agree all the way back to Mars a day. Yeah

[01:10:56] [SPEAKER_00]: We all agree Mars attacks to master piece. I think that's fair to say

[01:11:00] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, I think so

[01:11:01] [SPEAKER_00]: So it's been a while but I am looking forward to Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. It looks fun and

[01:11:06] [SPEAKER_00]: A lot of people that I've seen see it have really enjoyed it. So yeah, I'm looking forward to it

[01:11:11] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah the first Beetlejuice great can't go wrong really good stuff. I'm glad to hear it holds them

[01:11:15] [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, and then also

[01:11:17] [SPEAKER_00]: I ended up rewatching Empire records

[01:11:20] [SPEAKER_00]: Recently which was kind of just spurred the moment thing

[01:11:23] [SPEAKER_00]: I think I had had like a very stressful week at work and with a lot of stuff going on

[01:11:29] [SPEAKER_00]: And so I needed to just like decompress and I was like I'm gonna check it in with my friends and Empire records and

[01:11:34] [SPEAKER_00]: Watch this movie again. Yeah, and yeah, I watched this movie for the first time like five years ago

[01:11:38] [SPEAKER_00]: I was like instantly like I can't believe I've never seen this before

[01:11:42] [SPEAKER_00]: Because it is very much it's you know a 90s

[01:11:45] [SPEAKER_00]: It's a 90s movie about slacker kids in a record store

[01:11:49] [SPEAKER_00]: And that's like exactly the kind of thing that I ate up when I was like 15 and 16

[01:11:53] [SPEAKER_00]: And yeah, I just never watched it and since then like I bought the blue ray and all that stuff

[01:11:59] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, it holds up. It's great. It's super fun. Santa tracks amazing gin blossoms can't go wrong

[01:12:06] [SPEAKER_01]: That's so funny. I just went to see recently who do you in the blue fish? Oh, yeah

[01:12:11] [SPEAKER_01]: In concert and they rule I've seen them a bunch but I was talking to a friend before that the couple days earlier

[01:12:15] [SPEAKER_01]: And I was couldn't remember the the opener. I was like, oh, somebody like the gin blossoms

[01:12:21] [SPEAKER_01]: That's a gin blossom as fan right it was it was collective soul right and then being collective soul. Yes, right

[01:12:27] [SPEAKER_01]: But I think I was on no, it's that was on point. You're the ballpark. I mean

[01:12:32] [SPEAKER_00]: It's certainly the right era for sure

[01:12:34] [SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, you've never seen Empire records right back correct. I have not yeah, we talked with that at the beginning of the episode

[01:12:39] [SPEAKER_00]: It was so long ago that

[01:12:41] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I mean Empire records rules. I think it's super super fun live Tyler is one of the girls in this Renee Zellweger is in this Ethan

[01:12:48] [SPEAKER_00]: Embery yeah Anthony LaPavia

[01:12:51] [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, is the right is like the owner of the store. He's like the manager. It's great

[01:12:55] [SPEAKER_00]: It's it's just a really like fun charming movie like the ultimate hangout movie where there's like truly very

[01:12:59] [SPEAKER_00]: Little plot in this thing and you're just like hanging out with these kids while you know

[01:13:03] [SPEAKER_00]: They're working at the this record store that is like maybe about to go under

[01:13:06] [SPEAKER_00]: It's it's really good nice. No jocing the pussy. Yeah, I'm sure well. Hey jocing this has its five star masterpiece right there

[01:13:12] [SPEAKER_00]: It's really really good. I'll be rewatching that pretty soon for fake bands real bangers in the rockies
