This porno sure 00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:29.040 looks like it could be it. Sure. I mean, yeah. 00:04:29.620 --> 00:04:33.939 James Franco's changed. Yeah. I mean, has he? 00:04:34.980 --> 00:04:37.800 Hey, Nick, can I read you my quick review I said 00:04:37.800 --> 00:04:40.639 to Peter last night? Uh -huh. I finished it. 00:04:40.899 --> 00:04:44.920 All in all, positive in the film, despite it 00:04:44.920 --> 00:04:47.699 not really having much of a plot. Well shot. 00:04:47.839 --> 00:04:50.540 Acting was serviceable to good. Nothing atrocious. 00:04:50.620 --> 00:04:52.779 The weird self -insert brings the whole thing 00:04:52.779 --> 00:04:55.779 down from drama to farce, but otherwise, it's 00:04:55.779 --> 00:04:58.399 a movie I watched. I'd put it a little bit above 00:04:58.399 --> 00:05:01.720 it's a movie I watched, but your review is pretty 00:05:01.720 --> 00:05:04.660 fucking accurate. Yeah, yeah. Most of those points 00:05:04.660 --> 00:05:09.279 are pretty spot on there. I did feel a little 00:05:09.279 --> 00:05:12.819 better about the acting, especially James Franco. 00:05:14.410 --> 00:05:17.149 Just as a character piece for him. I think he 00:05:17.149 --> 00:05:21.449 did a pretty good job about it. I mean, it's 00:05:21.449 --> 00:05:25.449 James Franco. Yeah, I mean, we can get the hard 00:05:25.449 --> 00:05:27.850 part of that over. He seems like a douchebag. 00:05:27.870 --> 00:05:30.709 He's done douchebag shit. He is a good actor, 00:05:30.829 --> 00:05:33.629 but like, fuck that guy. Yeah, but his weird 00:05:33.629 --> 00:05:35.889 face. OK, I got to talk about his face for a 00:05:35.889 --> 00:05:38.769 minute. He does squint a lot in his face. It's 00:05:38.769 --> 00:05:41.290 one of those like everything turns into a raisin. 00:05:41.290 --> 00:05:46.529 Like it's like it's all squinched up face. So 00:05:46.529 --> 00:05:50.360 he smiles and everything is just. I do love his 00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:53.100 smile. His smile is actually kind of infectious 00:05:53.100 --> 00:05:57.160 for me because it's just so big and everything 00:05:57.160 --> 00:06:00.300 about it is smile. OK, OK, I can give that to 00:06:00.300 --> 00:06:02.959 you. I had a note of I hate his smile, but it's 00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:04.560 mostly because I hate his squinch face. Well, 00:06:04.620 --> 00:06:09.300 I hate everything above the nose. Just mouth 00:06:09.300 --> 00:06:12.199 zone. Yeah, pretty good. He mouth smiles real 00:06:12.199 --> 00:06:16.040 good. You know, I'd fucking I'd trade Leto in 00:06:16.040 --> 00:06:19.839 a second. Oh, any day. Any day. Wait. You can 00:06:19.839 --> 00:06:21.480 bring Franco back. I won't watch his movies, 00:06:21.519 --> 00:06:23.959 but I'll hate him less than Leto. Oh, okay. Perfect. 00:06:24.100 --> 00:06:26.600 No, I agree with you. For a second, I was like, 00:06:26.699 --> 00:06:29.540 what? Are you super pro -Leto all of a sudden? 00:06:29.819 --> 00:06:32.720 No. Watch the new Tron Aries and just really 00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:35.720 fucking hot for Leto. Sean was the only person 00:06:35.720 --> 00:06:39.439 to watch it. My favorite thing I've seen about 00:06:39.439 --> 00:06:47.180 Tron Aries is a thing on the internet where someone's 00:06:47.180 --> 00:06:50.540 like, movie Tron Jared Leto's name is John his 00:06:50.540 --> 00:06:52.980 name is John Tron none of you will deny this 00:06:52.980 --> 00:06:54.459 because none of you will admit to have seen this 00:06:54.459 --> 00:06:58.720 film I do love John Tron and what you said earlier 00:06:58.720 --> 00:07:03.819 was Jonathan Tron I added to the joke yeah prove 00:07:03.819 --> 00:07:07.379 me wrong go to the movie you're not gonna do 00:07:07.379 --> 00:07:20.740 it you morbius fuck Oh, yeah. So James Franco 00:07:20.740 --> 00:07:25.699 comes back after being dishonorably discharged 00:07:25.699 --> 00:07:28.459 from the military. So he's done with his Army 00:07:28.459 --> 00:07:32.319 career, decides to go back to New Orleans before 00:07:32.319 --> 00:07:38.019 heading out to take up a job with a buddy running 00:07:38.019 --> 00:07:42.689 a bookstore in Texas. So he comes back to New 00:07:42.689 --> 00:07:45.370 Orleans. We get introduced to his life where, 00:07:45.370 --> 00:07:49.029 you know, he lives with his mom, who is the I 00:07:49.029 --> 00:07:51.430 wouldn't even say the madam.

Yes, there are some daddy 00:09:07.340 --> 00:09:11.539 problems and some mommy issues. I mean, I'd say 00:09:11.539 --> 00:09:16.100 the biggest mommy issue is she was whoring out 00:09:16.100 --> 00:09:19.419 her son at age 12. Yeah, super fucked up.

Harry Dean 00:09:31.330 --> 00:09:34.509 Stanton is Henry, who for most of the movie, 00:09:34.570 --> 00:09:36.850 you just is like, OK, this guy who's been around 00:09:36.850 --> 00:09:39.710 in his life, who's sort of a fuck up drunk gambler. 00:09:39.710 --> 00:09:41.940 Yeah, but he fucking kills it. This is great. 00:09:42.039 --> 00:09:45.679 One of my favorite Harry Dean. And he turns out 00:09:45.679 --> 00:09:47.320 he's his dad, but that's later. We'll figure 00:09:47.320 --> 00:09:50.919 that out. Mina Savari in like, so she's been 00:09:50.919 --> 00:09:53.100 in at this point, like American pie and American 00:09:53.100 --> 00:09:56.399 pie too. And American beauty, a lot of American, 00:09:56.500 --> 00:09:59.840 all American, all American actress. And then 00:09:59.840 --> 00:10:02.179 like her career, like she doesn't fall off in 00:10:02.179 --> 00:10:04.019 like a crazy way. She just sort of goes the way 00:10:04.019 --> 00:10:07.950 of like. aging women actresses where she becomes 00:10:07.950 --> 00:10:10.450 like a tv actor after her film career kind of 00:10:10.450 --> 00:10:13.970 tails off so she made stuff like last year she's 00:10:13.970 --> 00:10:17.110 still in the scene interesting um but this is 00:10:17.110 --> 00:10:21.090 one of her last like big leading roles for a 00:10:21.090 --> 00:10:25.029 while um and then beyond that like nick cage 00:10:25.029 --> 00:10:38.570 plays a Mm hmm.

That's like ultra fizzy. Like the bubbles 00:12:58.809 --> 00:13:01.309 are just going crazy at that point. And then 00:13:01.309 --> 00:13:04.350 you slam a whiskey soda that way. I mean, I want 00:13:04.350 --> 00:13:06.919 to try it. I'm curious about it. But I can't 00:13:06.919 --> 00:13:09.279 imagine being a bartender and allowing that. 00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:12.460 The fucking mess of it. And then every time, 00:13:12.500 --> 00:13:14.879 a new napkin. So what's he doing with those other 00:13:14.879 --> 00:13:16.399 napkins? He's throwing them on the ground. You 00:13:16.399 --> 00:13:18.919 gotta fucking clean that shit up. Yeah, it was 00:13:18.919 --> 00:13:21.039 interesting. But if there was ever a city to 00:13:21.039 --> 00:13:23.320 do it, I think New Orleans would be pretty into 00:13:23.320 --> 00:13:26.179 that. Most of the action of this movie takes 00:13:26.179 --> 00:13:29.440 place around Bourbon Street and the adjacent 00:13:29.440 --> 00:13:34.399 blocks, which is just as... i mean like no whores 00:13:34.399 --> 00:13:38.740 but it's just as wild now as then i'm ready to 00:13:38.740 --> 00:13:40.700 go back to new orleans this movie fueled me up 00:13:40.700 --> 00:13:45.100 yeah it's a pretty good like interesting picture 00:13:45.100 --> 00:13:46.960 of new orleans i mean like it's definitely gritty 00:13:46.960 --> 00:13:50.000 crappy you know like here's the which is still 00:13:50.000 --> 00:13:52.720 new orleans like yeah right without the prostitution 00:13:52.720 --> 00:13:56.899 or the visible prostitution right uh that's still 00:13:56.899 --> 00:13:59.580 new orleans like i don't know if katrina really 00:13:59.580 --> 00:14:03.600 fucked that city up or not i mean that's a obviously 00:14:03.600 --> 00:14:08.720 it did and that's a take that i will sure fucked 00:14:08.720 --> 00:14:10.580 it up in a different way like fucked up the culture 00:14:10.580 --> 00:14:13.080 of it maybe not you know right that the culture 00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:14.919 of it and well the heart of the city is still 00:14:14.919 --> 00:14:17.019 very strong right you know the restrictive aspect 00:14:17.019 --> 00:14:20.340 aspect of it is really like republican douchebags 00:14:20.340 --> 00:14:24.139 fucking with no puritanical rules fuck off but 00:14:24.139 --> 00:14:25.820 josie and i were talking about it and she's like 00:14:25.820 --> 00:14:28.840 this is a great city to film like this kind of 00:14:28.840 --> 00:14:32.700 period piece because the architecture of these 00:14:32.700 --> 00:14:35.539 parts of the city have not changed. I mean, there 00:14:35.539 --> 00:14:39.480 are buildings and homes there that have existed 00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:43.120 for like 150, 200 years. Sean, have you been 00:14:43.120 --> 00:14:47.919 to new Orleans? No. Okay. Let's go on a, um, 00:14:47.980 --> 00:14:51.940 cocaine fueled trip to new Orleans.

Yes, thank 00:17:19.119 --> 00:17:22.440 you. No, my question is like these movies are 00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:24.099 all sort of like predicated on the fact that 00:17:24.099 --> 00:17:26.519 like you come back to your town and like everyone 00:17:26.519 --> 00:17:28.299 fucking knows you and you're pulled back into 00:17:28.299 --> 00:17:31.200 the game. But like New Orleans isn't a small 00:17:31.200 --> 00:17:34.279 city, right? I mean, it's not like huge, but 00:17:34.279 --> 00:17:37.160 the idea that like the second he gets back, everyone's 00:17:37.160 --> 00:17:40.640 like, that's that best dick I've ever had. It's 00:17:40.640 --> 00:17:43.519 like, oh, hey, Sonny, I'm at the grocery store. 00:17:43.640 --> 00:17:45.420 Look at this eggplant. And he's like, yeah, I 00:17:45.420 --> 00:17:50.160 know. uh it's kind of not like obviously i've 00:17:50.160 --> 00:17:54.839 never lived there but it's regional like everything 00:17:54.839 --> 00:17:57.559 he's talking about is like the quarter he even 00:17:57.559 --> 00:17:59.519 mentions like i can't go anywhere in the quarter 00:17:59.519 --> 00:18:04.390 without being recognized for what i am for being 00:18:04.390 --> 00:18:08.029 a big dick whatever swanger so yeah most of it 00:18:08.029 --> 00:18:10.349 and we're still talking about the 70s and stuff 00:18:10.349 --> 00:18:13.150 too or i think it's 70s 70s 80s something like 00:18:13.150 --> 00:18:15.910 that that kind of was 91 that's what like it 00:18:15.910 --> 00:18:17.509 didn't say 1991 in the beginning of the film 00:18:17.509 --> 00:18:23.750 oh i can't read um just like sunny i pretend 00:18:23.750 --> 00:18:28.250 i'm real good pretender he's also working like 00:18:28.250 --> 00:18:31.599 richer people it's not just his neighborhood. 00:18:31.660 --> 00:18:34.220 Like they're kind of far afield. Like they go 00:18:34.220 --> 00:18:37.920 to the house to work the double. Yeah. Yeah. 00:18:38.000 --> 00:18:40.880 There's a little bit of time spent outside of 00:18:40.880 --> 00:18:43.980 the quarter for sure. So, but so like he gets 00:18:43.980 --> 00:18:45.759 to that point where he's like, well, this is 00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:48.279 who I am. But then what's the, what's his girlfriend's 00:18:48.279 --> 00:18:52.539 name? What's the, her name's Carol. Carol. She 00:18:52.539 --> 00:18:56.019 decides that, you know, maybe they can't change, 00:18:56.059 --> 00:18:58.420 but they could at least hope for, they can at 00:18:58.420 --> 00:19:01.130 least try for anything else. And rather than, 00:19:01.130 --> 00:19:03.430 you know, him being like, sure, he's just like, 00:19:03.470 --> 00:19:05.130 nope, this is who we are. This is all we'll ever 00:19:05.130 --> 00:19:10.549 be. And so first half hopeful. Second half crushes 00:19:10.549 --> 00:19:12.829 someone else's hope. Yeah, he's doing exactly 00:19:12.829 --> 00:19:17.809 what his mom did to him. Yeah. So it's real sad. 00:19:17.869 --> 00:19:20.970 Is this movie good? I think it is. I think it's 00:19:20.970 --> 00:19:23.430 actually kind of good. I don't think like, OK, 00:19:23.490 --> 00:19:28.069 despite my like very it's fine review of it. 00:19:28.519 --> 00:19:30.660 It is fine. Like, and the, like I said, the acting 00:19:30.660 --> 00:19:33.279 is for the most part good. Uh, I only have a 00:19:33.279 --> 00:19:34.960 few, there's only a few things where I'm just 00:19:34.960 --> 00:19:37.380 like, I don't know about that, but the acting's 00:19:37.380 --> 00:19:40.339 good. It's directed shockingly well for, um, 00:19:40.400 --> 00:19:42.539 I didn't expect it to be directed well at all. 00:19:43.019 --> 00:19:46.500 Like it's beautiful. The score is actually really 00:19:46.500 --> 00:19:51.359 good. It's really good. Nicholas Cage is as an 00:19:51.359 --> 00:19:54.099 actor, the weakest moment of this. Yeah. Totally. 00:19:54.220 --> 00:19:57.619 Oh, that's a whole different movie. Yeah. Yeah. 00:19:58.220 --> 00:20:01.299 I would watch that movie, but well, I would have 00:20:01.299 --> 00:20:08.799 to watch that movie. It meanders a bit. It's 00:20:08.799 --> 00:20:10.640 there's not a strong through line throughout, 00:20:10.819 --> 00:20:15.740 but like it's, it's well done. Like you can tell 00:20:15.740 --> 00:20:17.980 the people who made it cared about what they 00:20:17.980 --> 00:20:21.960 were making and they made something that I don't 00:20:21.960 --> 00:20:24.160 know how culturally important it is, but it isn't 00:20:24.160 --> 00:20:27.559 bad by any means. yeah it could have used a little 00:20:27.559 --> 00:20:33.839 more like structural through line for it um everything 00:20:33.839 --> 00:20:37.059 that happens with the characters is pretty much 00:20:37.059 --> 00:20:40.019 in line and it tracks well but there's just not 00:20:40.019 --> 00:20:43.819 something that really makes it go scene to scene 00:20:43.819 --> 00:20:49.259 unfortunately yeah um beyond just beating sunny 00:20:49.259 --> 00:20:51.799 down yeah if and if they would have spent more 00:20:51.799 --> 00:20:55.529 than like two scenes hinting about the daddy 00:20:55.529 --> 00:20:57.589 issues like if that was like his through line 00:20:57.589 --> 00:21:00.130 like his dad wasn't around so his mom took advantage 00:21:00.130 --> 00:21:01.309 of him his dad wasn't around so he went to the 00:21:01.309 --> 00:21:03.190 army if like that was the through line throughout 00:21:03.190 --> 00:21:06.789 then that would have tied up the made the ending 00:21:06.789 --> 00:21:10.430 and his like kind of heel turn makes so much 00:21:10.430 --> 00:21:14.819 more sense yeah and that one scene where he pulls 00:21:14.819 --> 00:21:17.660 the picture down off the wall right it's like 00:21:17.660 --> 00:21:22.160 well i didn't really love that story of it i 00:21:22.160 --> 00:21:25.279 mean like i enjoyed the story of like oh my daddy 00:21:25.279 --> 00:21:27.859 came in and protected my mom scared some dude 00:21:27.859 --> 00:21:31.359 off yeah i mean like it just sort of came out 00:21:31.359 --> 00:21:33.599 of nowhere it felt like it was just kind of added 00:21:33.599 --> 00:21:37.619 in or like a scene was built to tell that story 00:21:37.619 --> 00:21:41.460 yeah there was nothing bringing us to that story 00:21:41.950 --> 00:21:44.009 Yeah, like I said, I just don't think there's 00:21:44.009 --> 00:21:45.990 much of a through line throughout that carries 00:21:45.990 --> 00:21:48.430 the entire that carries it from scene to scene 00:21:48.430 --> 00:21:51.289 or carries the entire narrative. So my feeling 00:21:51.289 --> 00:21:53.109 on this is like I really like this movie and 00:21:53.109 --> 00:21:55.130 I think it was actually pretty good overall. 00:21:55.369 --> 00:21:57.930 But like it's there's basically nothing happens. 00:21:58.009 --> 00:22:00.670 You know, there's like it's so thin overall, 00:22:00.970 --> 00:22:03.529 even though like I liked it because it's so like 00:22:03.529 --> 00:22:07.369 specifically character driven. So like what I 00:22:07.369 --> 00:22:09.509 what I want to talk about is like the performances 00:22:09.509 --> 00:22:13.509 of sort of the main. three characters you know 00:22:13.509 --> 00:22:17.990 it's like carol carol and sunny jewel and oh 00:22:17.990 --> 00:22:22.490 i guess henry um his dad yeah i love that scene 00:22:22.490 --> 00:22:28.230 where uh henry and sunny were talking and uh 00:22:28.230 --> 00:22:30.769 henry was like oh you gotta think about the the 00:22:30.769 --> 00:22:33.269 consequences and sunny's like oh you think i 00:22:33.269 --> 00:22:35.809 shouldn't get out also you think i should just 00:22:35.809 --> 00:22:40.069 stay and he's henry's like no but You got to 00:22:40.069 --> 00:22:43.289 realize, like, just be prepared because the things 00:22:43.289 --> 00:22:45.829 that you don't have to think about, the things 00:22:45.829 --> 00:22:48.609 that normal people think about, like paying bills, 00:22:48.849 --> 00:22:52.950 like going to PTA meetings, like it's hard in 00:22:52.950 --> 00:22:56.150 a different way. Coming from somebody who makes 00:22:56.150 --> 00:22:58.809 his living picking pockets and stealing. Right. 00:23:00.029 --> 00:23:03.319 Talking to a male whore. OK, so let's get back 00:23:03.319 --> 00:23:05.579 to the dad, because I think he's my favorite 00:23:05.579 --> 00:23:07.759 character in this.

Oh, yeah. 00:38:39.989 --> 00:38:43.369 Well, it was also like I think Whippet was playing 00:38:43.369 --> 00:38:46.829 in the background of that scene, too. great just 00:38:46.829 --> 00:38:49.690 like again like sound design music design in 00:38:49.690 --> 00:38:52.829 this was really really well done yeah a lot of 00:38:52.829 --> 00:38:54.789 the technical aspects of this film were very 00:38:54.789 --> 00:38:58.469 tight yeah so yeah nick k nick cage's character 00:38:58.469 --> 00:39:02.769 acid yellow is introduced right after this bender 00:39:02.769 --> 00:39:05.750 scene um right after harry dean stanton's death 00:39:05.750 --> 00:39:08.809 franco find out about his father goes on this 00:39:08.809 --> 00:39:13.349 bender um and shows up at the door of the pimp 00:39:13.349 --> 00:39:16.860 acid yellow um Because he wants to he wants a 00:39:16.860 --> 00:39:19.260 date, but with a man and just this were introduced 00:39:19.260 --> 00:39:23.880 to one of the weirdest Nick Nick cages ever. 00:39:24.519 --> 00:39:27.659 Fake nose.

And then just 00:40:45.659 --> 00:40:47.320 turning to Franco and it just being kind of a 00:40:47.320 --> 00:40:50.619 normal shot because no one else is that gone. 00:40:51.699 --> 00:40:55.920 The group, the green poodle on the bar was green 00:40:55.920 --> 00:41:00.059 and red. Yeah. A weird mini poodle. Yeah. I don't, 00:41:00.099 --> 00:41:02.039 I didn't understand that. I didn't understand 00:41:02.039 --> 00:41:04.320 most anything about that. It was a very eccentric. 00:41:04.760 --> 00:41:10.210 Yeah. Like home. And it's so, it's so out of, 00:41:10.210 --> 00:41:14.329 it's so tonally out there for this film. Like 00:41:14.329 --> 00:41:17.369 it, it's a different film and it's not a good 00:41:17.369 --> 00:41:20.409 film at that point. It's a very brief sequence, 00:41:20.469 --> 00:41:24.789 but it just like it. it takes what trust we have 00:41:24.789 --> 00:41:26.849 in the storytelling up to this point it's like 00:41:26.849 --> 00:41:30.289 all right we're done i will add just like a point 00:41:30.289 --> 00:41:34.469 for clarification uh in this scene he didn't 00:41:34.469 --> 00:41:36.550 show up there because he wanted to fuck a dude 00:41:36.550 --> 00:41:40.469 he showed up there yeah because he had some extra 00:41:40.469 --> 00:41:44.110 energy to burn as you said and he was clearly 00:41:44.110 --> 00:41:48.329 just going there to beat somebody up and The 00:41:48.329 --> 00:41:50.710 time of the film, yes, he's going to go up and 00:41:50.710 --> 00:41:54.269 beat up a gay guy because nobody's going to report 00:41:54.269 --> 00:41:57.449 it. This did have my favorite quote of the entire 00:41:57.449 --> 00:42:01.429 movie. It was Nick Cage. He does a line and he 00:42:01.429 --> 00:42:08.949 goes, I love Kukak. That was my quote, too. I 00:42:08.949 --> 00:42:14.170 like that. Yeah. No, it's just it's sick cane 00:42:14.170 --> 00:42:16.320 sword, though. Nick Cage pulls out a cane sword. 00:42:16.820 --> 00:42:19.420 He does pull out a cane sword. But it's also 00:42:19.420 --> 00:42:22.380 like the oldest like schlubby man running after 00:42:22.380 --> 00:42:24.820 someone like I'm going to get you. You know, 00:42:24.840 --> 00:42:26.739 I even watch this on one and a half speed because, 00:42:26.800 --> 00:42:29.800 you know, I do. Yeah. Yeah. Even that I was like, 00:42:29.820 --> 00:42:34.219 that's slow, dude. That's a slow run. I just 00:42:34.219 --> 00:42:38.800 like for me, like the way you put it, Nick, makes 00:42:38.800 --> 00:42:40.659 a lot of sense in terms of like why he would 00:42:40.659 --> 00:42:44.159 like go there to beat up a guy. same effect you 00:42:44.159 --> 00:42:45.460 could have just had him fight a guy in a bathroom 00:42:45.460 --> 00:42:47.139 you could have had him just pick up a john and 00:42:47.139 --> 00:42:49.739 do it like the whole the nick cage of it all 00:42:49.739 --> 00:42:54.280 and going specifically to a male whorehouse it 00:42:54.280 --> 00:42:56.159 didn't need to be there it didn't need to be 00:42:56.159 --> 00:42:58.559 its own location and i feel like even for the 00:42:58.559 --> 00:43:00.539 timing of this film like a lot of the implications 00:43:00.539 --> 00:43:05.159 of nick cage's character are in poor taste yeah 00:43:05.159 --> 00:43:10.820 i just i just like this movie loses loses half 00:43:10.820 --> 00:43:13.179 a star just for this losing half a point just 00:43:13.179 --> 00:43:15.000 for this scene it's kind of too bad because i 00:43:15.000 --> 00:43:18.860 feel like had he not included himself in that 00:43:18.860 --> 00:43:22.900 crazed character this movie would be better it's 00:43:22.900 --> 00:43:24.340 it's kind of still how i feel about the whole 00:43:24.340 --> 00:43:26.559 thing it's like it's all sort of like a medium 00:43:26.559 --> 00:43:30.699 good for me and this makes it like a little dip 00:43:31.550 --> 00:43:33.489 where it could have just maintained the medium 00:43:33.489 --> 00:43:35.789 good like i don't think this movie is like oh 00:43:35.789 --> 00:43:39.170 fuck what a transcendent piece of art but it's 00:43:39.170 --> 00:43:42.449 something you know yeah no it's got legs to it 00:43:42.449 --> 00:43:45.670 yeah clear like i said clearly everyone involved 00:43:45.670 --> 00:43:48.570 cared about what they were making yeah yeah which 00:43:48.570 --> 00:43:50.510 is not what i was expecting going into this entire 00:43:50.510 --> 00:43:52.949 week you know no i expected this to be a muff 00:43:52.949 --> 00:43:59.590 a must a muff a muff i also expected muff i expected 00:43:59.590 --> 00:44:04.530 this to be a must a much i expected this to be 00:44:04.530 --> 00:44:09.869 a much rougher watch before before we get into 00:44:09.869 --> 00:44:14.349 the kjo grid the very limited grid we can have 00:44:14.349 --> 00:44:16.630 for this one i do want to just discuss the end 00:44:16.630 --> 00:44:19.929 of the film where like god name sorry my brain 00:44:19.929 --> 00:44:25.210 today uh girlfriend yeah carol uh carol um the 00:44:25.210 --> 00:44:33.389 guy the gets a car from he's a car dealer and 00:44:33.389 --> 00:44:37.869 he's like oh is it the same dude yeah yeah that's 00:44:37.869 --> 00:44:40.010 why at the end she's like he wants the car back 00:44:40.010 --> 00:44:42.429 we're gonna drive it to mexico got it yeah okay 00:44:42.429 --> 00:44:45.469 uh so it's she says a couple times in the movie 00:44:45.469 --> 00:44:47.349 that every time like he always asks her to marry 00:44:47.349 --> 00:44:50.489 him and so since frank goes like we're not we're 00:44:50.489 --> 00:44:52.489 not leaving i'm not leaving this life you know 00:44:52.489 --> 00:44:54.570 she's like he's gonna ask me again i'm gonna 00:44:54.570 --> 00:44:58.610 say yes and she does so they go to drive off 00:44:58.610 --> 00:45:01.670 and there's the scene where like she's crying 00:45:01.670 --> 00:45:05.329 in the car and like franco's running up after 00:45:05.329 --> 00:45:07.329 her and they have the moment in the street where 00:45:07.329 --> 00:45:10.469 they embrace hard cut to franco just in front 00:45:10.469 --> 00:45:13.150 of his mom's door again i'm like i like that 00:45:13.150 --> 00:45:18.570 yeah yeah i like the reality of that yeah the 00:45:18.570 --> 00:45:21.550 of the person imagining a better life but like 00:45:21.550 --> 00:45:24.670 unwilling to take the steps to do it for themselves 00:45:24.670 --> 00:45:29.250 yeah and just living in the fucking shit that 00:45:29.250 --> 00:45:32.190 they've developed for themselves yeah it's fucking 00:45:32.190 --> 00:45:36.809 real yeah the ending um the the scene with the 00:45:36.809 --> 00:45:40.369 mom uh saying you know um it's easier to say 00:45:40.369 --> 00:45:41.809 we're all fuck -ups than hard it's harder to 00:45:41.809 --> 00:45:45.400 live with that with that like um his his freak 00:45:45.400 --> 00:45:47.340 out in the bathroom with a girl and like how 00:45:47.340 --> 00:45:49.139 it's supposed to be different on like this side 00:45:49.139 --> 00:45:51.860 of things like there's all these little moments 00:45:51.860 --> 00:45:55.159 of genius like that like if we could extrapolate 00:45:55.159 --> 00:45:58.139 that into a whole film great movie instead we 00:45:58.139 --> 00:46:01.360 just kind of get these small little kind of hints 00:46:01.360 --> 00:46:04.539 of it all yeah and it doesn't hold together which 00:46:04.539 --> 00:46:07.519 is really i think the shame of this film and 00:46:07.519 --> 00:46:10.079 makes me wish nick cage maybe directed another 00:46:10.079 --> 00:46:12.849 film yeah so he kind of got into this window 00:46:12.849 --> 00:46:15.769 where it was like this movie was panned critically 00:46:15.769 --> 00:46:19.070 it made no money you know it was a total fucking 00:46:19.070 --> 00:46:23.429 loss like what 130 000 worldwide yeah like disgustingly 00:46:23.429 --> 00:46:29.289 small amount of money that's 130 000 yeah i think 00:46:29.289 --> 00:46:31.630 that there's a part of it that like it tied into 00:46:31.630 --> 00:46:36.449 the weird like tax failure of the next decade 00:46:36.449 --> 00:46:39.739 that he has you know where it's like I can't 00:46:39.739 --> 00:46:42.739 take risks. I can't do this and like fall back 00:46:42.739 --> 00:46:45.639 on, you know, my fortune or my name or any of 00:46:45.639 --> 00:46:48.820 these things that like I think he he stopped 00:46:48.820 --> 00:46:52.239 directing because this hit at the wrong time. 00:46:52.340 --> 00:46:55.579 And that sucks because it's actually not bad. 00:46:55.900 --> 00:46:58.780 Yeah, I would love to see him try again. Yeah. 00:46:59.219 --> 00:47:02.699 And he might never, you know. No, he probably 00:47:02.699 --> 00:47:05.239 won't. We'll probably never see another Nicolas 00:47:05.239 --> 00:47:08.929 Cage directed piece. And it's too bad. Yeah, 00:47:08.949 --> 00:47:11.329 because it really is not bad. And, you know, 00:47:11.329 --> 00:47:14.469 he he managed to get a crew together and like 00:47:14.469 --> 00:47:18.130 good actors and like James Franco aside, you 00:47:18.130 --> 00:47:21.769 know, he was a hot commodity at that point. Like 00:47:21.769 --> 00:47:24.789 the people he surrounded himself with were artists 00:47:24.789 --> 00:47:27.530 with a vision that seemed to jive with what he 00:47:27.530 --> 00:47:30.110 was doing. And it fucking worked like it's way, 00:47:30.449 --> 00:47:33.170 way better and way prettier and way more put 00:47:33.170 --> 00:47:35.789 together than I ever thought that this was going 00:47:35.789 --> 00:47:39.969 to be going into this. at a time where like his 00:47:39.969 --> 00:47:43.030 like a -list stardom was waning as well like 00:47:43.030 --> 00:47:45.010 this would have been a great transition if this 00:47:45.010 --> 00:47:47.070 would have if this would have worked out yeah 00:47:47.070 --> 00:47:49.329 um in retrospect kind of glad it didn't because 00:47:49.329 --> 00:47:53.050 now we have like pig and mandy and joe but totally 00:47:53.050 --> 00:47:55.889 you know imagine a world where like nick cage 00:47:55.889 --> 00:48:01.610 kept making movies kept like directing what it 00:48:01.610 --> 00:48:05.670 wait in what way like just remained an a -lister 00:48:05.670 --> 00:48:08.519 forever Oh, sure, sure. No, I think Sean meant 00:48:08.519 --> 00:48:10.780 more, like, if he had the chance to become a 00:48:10.780 --> 00:48:13.099 director instead of... Like, if this movie would 00:48:13.099 --> 00:48:15.820 have hit, would he have, like, pivoted more to 00:48:15.820 --> 00:48:19.960 behind -the -scenes work? Right. I think he's 00:48:19.960 --> 00:48:22.260 always been a movie star. Yeah. Like, he's always 00:48:22.260 --> 00:48:25.059 described himself as a movie star. So, like, 00:48:25.139 --> 00:48:27.360 dipping his toes in here and there, probably. 00:48:27.539 --> 00:48:30.039 But, yeah, I mean, like, to your point, though, 00:48:30.079 --> 00:48:33.619 like, that would be crazy to lose Nicolas Cage 00:48:33.619 --> 00:48:37.199 as an actor. Right. Or just at least we might 00:48:37.199 --> 00:48:39.940 have gotten less. I mean, certainly season one 00:48:39.940 --> 00:48:42.719 and season two would be different. Yeah. All 00:48:42.719 --> 00:48:46.480 right. Well, let's just do the grid because we 00:48:46.480 --> 00:48:50.519 have to. Good movie, good cage, bad movie, bad 00:48:50.519 --> 00:48:53.340 cage, good, bad, bad, good. Yeah. Where do you 00:48:53.340 --> 00:48:55.880 put this one? All my critiques of the movie aside, 00:48:56.000 --> 00:48:59.760 it's well made. It's the people who make it care 00:48:59.760 --> 00:49:03.019 what they're doing. It's like that comes through 00:49:03.019 --> 00:49:06.710 very well. And that. means a lot as you know 00:49:06.710 --> 00:49:10.349 for me it's not boring um it just you know is 00:49:10.349 --> 00:49:13.949 missing some could have used an edit uh i think 00:49:13.949 --> 00:49:17.530 the movie was over edited yeah or got over edited 00:49:17.530 --> 00:49:21.409 there's an editing issue i think the movie itself 00:49:21.409 --> 00:49:25.349 is pretty good nick cage is the worst part of 00:49:25.349 --> 00:49:30.230 this film yes yeah as an actor right right nick 00:49:30.230 --> 00:49:34.219 what do you think uh i totally agree for once 00:49:34.219 --> 00:49:39.119 um i hate to put that on right on record but 00:49:39.119 --> 00:49:42.739 yeah uh nicholas cage is a we got a bad performance 00:49:42.739 --> 00:49:47.800 in a movie that is structurally sound yeah so 00:49:47.800 --> 00:49:53.420 it's a good film if you're interested in character 00:49:53.420 --> 00:49:58.559 work that doesn't have a lot of like action to 00:49:58.559 --> 00:50:03.579 it it's pretty solid film yeah i agree So next 00:50:03.579 --> 00:50:07.039 episode, we've got the ant bully, which I'm sure 00:50:07.039 --> 00:50:09.699 is going to be a very, very different vibe. I 00:50:09.699 --> 00:50:12.239 can't wait to hear how many times they say whore. 00:50:12.380 --> 00:50:15.019 Oh, so many. You're just an ant whore. Yeah. 00:50:15.260 --> 00:50:17.960 Well, you're a whore, ant. There's probably like 00:50:17.960 --> 00:50:22.440 a special ant word for whore. We're going to 00:50:22.440 --> 00:50:24.420 pick it up. We're going to find out. Yeah. Yeah. 00:50:24.460 --> 00:50:26.940 He plays like a wizard. I don't know. I think 00:50:26.940 --> 00:50:30.639 he shrinks a boy. That sounds bad. So bad. Wait, 00:50:30.679 --> 00:50:33.360 he's not the titular ant bully? Well, so the 00:50:33.360 --> 00:50:38.260 ant bully, the main character is a turd to ants 00:50:38.260 --> 00:50:41.099 in his yard because he is being bullied by a 00:50:41.099 --> 00:50:44.860 human bully. And then he's projecting. So he's 00:50:44.860 --> 00:50:47.380 like the destroyer of their world. So the ants 00:50:47.380 --> 00:50:51.260 do magic and shrink him. So then it's a honey, 00:50:51.300 --> 00:50:53.760 I shrunk the kid situation. Nice. And I think 00:50:53.760 --> 00:50:56.900 the antagonist is a person hired to kill ants 00:50:56.900 --> 00:51:02.190 in the yard. Mm hmm. Like or exterminator. Or 00:51:02.190 --> 00:51:06.889 Orkin? An Orkin. Yeah. Okay. John Orkin. Well, 00:51:06.969 --> 00:51:08.690 I can't remember. What's that? An Orkin man. 00:51:08.829 --> 00:51:11.750 Yeah, an Orkin man. Okay. So I think that's it. 00:51:12.590 --> 00:51:14.769 But yeah, Nick Cage is the wizard who shrinks 00:51:14.769 --> 00:51:20.250 the boy.
