00:00:35,480 --> 00:00:37,960
Welcome to the All Bros.

6
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:42,200
This week on the podcast we got two items to talk about in 4k spotlight.

7
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:46,720
One being an Academy Award nominee.

8
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:51,920
We got a new trailer to talk about in Through the Wall which me and Caleb are both stoked

9
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:52,920
for.

10
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:55,280
It's looking so so good.

11
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:58,640
And then after that we'll be moving on to our headliner of the evening which will be

12
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:00,680
our the the the the the.

13
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:04,200
Which will be our breakdown of Creed 3.

14
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:06,000
So Caleb what do you say we get started?

15
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,360
I say let's frickin do it.

16
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:09,360

19
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,680
that we think are important to making a great movie.

20
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:26,680
After we rate the movie it gets a final rating and that lands it somewhere on our seller

21
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:33,160
scale where it will get labeled as either a well premium or a top-shelf film.

See you guys then.

31
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:10,880
All right jumping right into 4k spotlight even though none of these are on 4k that's

32
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,080
kind of the funny thing.

33
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:18,800
So first up we got Brendan Frazier's sorry.

34
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:19,800
Wow.

35
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:25,600
Darren oh my good lord Darren Aronofsky's The Whale starring Brendan Frazier there we

36
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,360
go.

37
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:31,320
Which is up for three Academy Awards this year including best actor best supporting

38
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:35,680
actress and best makeup and hair styling.

39
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:41,000
So this is definitely I want I want to see I don't know if I'm gonna be oh my god.

40
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,000
Starting off strong.

41
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:45,000
Yeah.

42
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:53,280
Dude dude I'm not gonna lie I'm going like how long is it like I for how long like two

43
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:57,240
and a half weeks without a day off and I'm like really starting to feel it.

44
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:03,040
Yeah because my whole team just decided to get sick on me so hell yeah.

45
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,800
That's borderline abuse.

46
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,480
Right oh dude you don't want to know how many hours I worked last week.

47
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,160
But let's not talk about that.

48
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:20,080
Anyway The Whale like you said I don't know if I want to blind buy this one just because

49
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,560
I have a feeling usually when it comes to I don't wait I actually don't even know the

50
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:29,400
studio that made this movie but anyway I'll bet you it's gonna be 22 like 96 or 2299 23

51
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:30,400
bucks.

52
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:34,240
I don't know if I want to spend that on a blind buy right now.

53
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:39,280
That's fair I mean I've heard nothing but good things about The Whale but it also doesn't

54
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,680
seem like it'd be like our type of movie.

55
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,840
I think it'd be one where after we watch it we're like oh that was pretty good but I don't

56
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,080
know if it'd be worth owning.

57
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:52,320
Yeah I feel it's probably gonna be like a one time watch and then I'll be okay I'm good.

58
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:58,200
That's what I feel about most Oscar nominations like at least for Best Picture like they usually

59
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:02,520
throughout give us like good one time watches.

60
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,840
I feel everything everywhere all at once though is different because I have watched that one

61
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,720
a couple times.

62
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:13,840
That's fair like there's definitely like some sprinkled in but I feel for the most part

63
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:19,680
like what was it with Nomadland like I could care less about watching that again.

64
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:26,680
Yeah I remember we were very different when it came to that movie we were very split.

65
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:28,760
Like is that a movie that you'd watch again?

66
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:30,520
Oh yeah I've watched it again.

67
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,200
I've only seen it twice.

68
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,200
What the shit like maybe I'm just an asshole.

69
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,480
No no I wouldn't say that.

70
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:42,160
It's been I don't know it just kind of depends on the movie.

71
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:48,120
Like I'm trying to think of like Oscar winning movies that like I've seen once and never

72
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,120
went back to.

73
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:58,680
God what was the Oscars last year?

74
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,300
Shit why am I drawing a blank here for like Oscar winners?

75
00:05:02,300 --> 00:05:03,800
This is really sad.

76
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:07,560
Because we suck at watching movies for the Oscars.

77
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:14,040
That is true even though we're gonna change that next year like you said.

78
00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:15,040
Absolutely.

79
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:16,040
Yeah.

80
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:22,640
But anyway the whale comes out this Tuesday on Blu-ray if you guys want to pick it up.

81
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:31,040
I love the the front is literally just a it's a like you could say that this is a what are

82
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:36,640
like the pictures that like actors will use when they go to an audition?

83
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,000
Like a headshot?

84
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:44,000
Headshot literally take out the background you could you could use this as a headshot

85
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:45,000
like dead serious.

86
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:46,000
Like I'm dead serious.

87
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,000
Like look at this shit.

88
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:53,000
That'd be a really shitty headshot but fair I guess.

89
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,920
I don't know like I don't know why it's screaming out to me headshot.

90
00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:04,000
I mean I don't know if like studios want you to look that freaking depressed but anyway

91
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,480
uh so yeah the whale.

92
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:14,600
Next up coming out this Tuesday is the Tom Hanks movie A Man Called Otto which was not

93
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:15,960
Oscar nominated unfortunately.

94
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:21,840
Actually I can't say unfortunately I've never even seen the damn movie.

95
00:06:21,840 --> 00:06:24,640
But I love how.

96
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:30,000
So the cover is freaking so it's Tom Hanks and then like literally it's just a bunch

97
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,840
of reviews behind him.

98
00:06:32,840 --> 00:06:35,040
Like okay that's like a way to scream.

99
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:36,840
Like reviews for the movie?

100
00:06:36,840 --> 00:06:37,840
Yeah.

101
00:06:37,840 --> 00:06:45,200
Wait for the movie it's like for yeah like how boring.

102
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:53,600
Isn't that that's just like a way to say please buy my movie please you see people think that's

103
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:54,600
good.

104
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:55,960
That's good too.

105
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:56,960
Just buy it please.

106
00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:04,600
Dude I thought this like the whole movie was about like a dude Karen that was like he does

107
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,760
nothing but write like Yelp reviews.

108
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:11,680
Maybe not.

109
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:13,720
Nope nothing about writing reviews.

110
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:15,680
Ah damn it.

111
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:16,680
That's so stupid.

112
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:18,680
Well now I'm disappointed.

113
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,640
I don't know if I even still want to watch it.

114
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:22,400
No I'm still gonna watch it.

115
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:26,520
But this is another one that like I'm probably just gonna wait till it comes to streaming.

116
00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,080
I'm sure it's gonna come somewhere for streaming.

117
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:33,240
I don't know where but I'm sure it will come to something.

118
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:36,160
So that's when I will check Amen.

119
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:41,200
Call it auto and the whale out is when.

120
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:44,960
I am really butchering my sentences so far in this episode.

121
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:49,240
Like wow it better get better for me.

122
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:53,640
I'm checking to see oh what the hell.

123
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:57,400
It says a man called autos coming to Disney plus.

124
00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,680
No shit.

125
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:00,680
That's what I do.

126
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:08,480
I googled a man called auto streaming release date and it says wait a man called auto franchise

127
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:10,360
what the shit.

128
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:14,360
It's a it's becoming a franchise it didn't even do that well theaters I thought.

129
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,760
This must not be the right movie.

130
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,560
Oh this is a scam website.

131
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:23,280
Ah damn it I freaking fell for it too.

132
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:25,280
I hate when that happens.

133
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,600
It's okay man it happens to the best of us.

134
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:33,320
It does not say anything about when it's coming to streaming.

135
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:34,320
Damn.

136
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:39,880
Well I guess it's like a smart thing to do.

137
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:42,000
Yeah some people will go out and buy it.

138
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:43,000
I get it.

139
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:47,880
Yeah if I had okay if I had to take a shot in the dark though on where I think it might

140
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:55,800
end up I would have to say Amazon.

141
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,480
Okay I could see that.

142
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:01,080
Who's the studio that made it.

143
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,760
That's actually a really good thing to look up on.

144
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:08,240
That's always like a very good indicator.

145
00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:09,640
Sony.

146
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:12,720
If it's Sony it might go to Netflix.

147
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,640
Sony movies go to Netflix.

148
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,200
Yeah I could see that going to Netflix too.

149
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,400
Wait this is the second adaptation of it.

150
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,400
It's a remake.

151
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:28,760
Oh so the original was a 2015 Swedish film.

152
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:29,760
Oh.

153
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:30,760
Interesting.

154
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:31,760
Okay.

155
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:39,600
They tend to do that a lot because there was a French film that was remade like not too

156
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:47,040
long ago but I actually I don't know when it was made but it was a French film but then

157
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:52,240
they remade it and it was Bryan Cranston and Kevin Hart that were in it.

158
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,240
Oh the Upside.

159
00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,880
Yeah so that was a remake.

160
00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,400
Okay that's what it's called right.

161
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,920
Yeah okay yeah yeah the Upside.

162
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:06,400
Yeah I always wanted to see that movie but I never checked it out.

163
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:07,400
Really good.

164
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:08,400
Yeah okay.

165
00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,720
Yeah really really good.

166
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,880
Then I will still check it out.

167
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,160
So that's it for 4k spotlight.

168
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:20,920
If any of you want to pick up those two titles.

169
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:27,120
So moving on to our Through the Wall we got our first trailer for Seth Rogan's Teenage

170
00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:33,960
Mutant Ninja Turtles Mutant Mayhem and I am I'm all in for this.

171
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:34,960
Bro.

172
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:37,480
Like holy shit.

173
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:43,680
The fact that teenagers are actually voicing the turtles is freaking awesome.

174
00:10:43,680 --> 00:10:48,880
Dude this looks freaking good.

175
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:50,120
It really does.

176
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:55,320
I'm loving the spider verse animation too or that kind of that kind of animation style.

177
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,680
I'm digging it for the turtles.

178
00:10:57,680 --> 00:11:03,520
I will okay I will say this I don't think that's it's fully like spider verse level

179
00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:09,360
animation because spider verse kind of had a sense of realism this fair animation is

180
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,960
very.

181
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:18,200
It's a lot more stylized than I would say spider verse was.

182
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:21,520
Good point and I'm loving it.

183
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:24,160
Like it looks so freaking good.

184
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:29,640
It does oh my god and they give splinter an afro.

185
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,320
They gave splinter an afro.

186
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:33,920
Oh you didn't notice that on the trailer.

187
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:34,920
No.

188
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:36,560
Yeah that's freaking hilarious.

189
00:11:36,560 --> 00:11:39,440
Yeah they gave master splinter an afro.

190
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:46,040
Oh my gosh dude this movie is going to be the shit.

191
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:54,200
Okay I'm watching the trailer kind of play on the IMDB site so yeah I did catch the the

192
00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:55,200
fro.

193
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:56,200
Yes.

194
00:11:56,200 --> 00:12:05,840
Gosh dude this is so different than anything we've ever gotten related to Ninja Turtles

195
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:15,360
because it's like the Ninja Turtles have like haven't had that teenage feel until now and

196
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,360
it works so freaking well.

197
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:20,160
It works way better than I thought it was going to.

198
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:21,160
Right.

199
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:28,200
Yeah that freaking the scene where they're just goofing off on top of that building just

200
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:33,600
filming each other throwing freaking ninja stars at watermelons over each other's heads.

201
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,280
I'm just like yeah that's something teenagers would do.

202
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:37,280
I love it.

203
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:38,280
Oh absolutely.

204
00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:45,240
Like oh my gosh dude this movie is going to be the shit.

205
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:50,080
It is and dude the voice cast oh man.

206
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:53,840
The cat holy balls dude.

207
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,880
This cast is going to be ridiculous.

208
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:57,880
Yeah.

209
00:12:57,880 --> 00:13:02,720
Freaking the one that like stood out to me right when they announced it Jackie Chan as

210
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:04,360
master splinter.

211
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:08,560
Dude like can you say perfection.

212
00:13:08,560 --> 00:13:16,920
Yeah dude this this feels like Seth's Rogan Seth Rogan's love child.

213
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,840
Dude yes seriously though it really does.

214
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:28,760
Like this feels like he went who would like teenagers cast as the Ninja Turtle villains

215
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:32,640
and he just ran with that and he's like I like that.

216
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:41,440
That's exactly how it feels like freaking ice cube voicing superfly or John Cena voicing

217
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:43,440
rock steady.

218
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:47,080
I mean Seth Rogan doing bebop.

219
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,200
That actually works perfectly.

220
00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:54,840
I'm sure he just wanted to be in the movie but like that is actually like perfect casting.

221
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:58,400
Yeah for freaking Paul Rudd is in here.

222
00:13:58,400 --> 00:13:59,400
Rose Byrne.

223
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,840
Jean Carlo Esposito.

224
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:04,720
Freaking Maya Rudolph.

225
00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:08,000
Hannibal Burr Hannibal Bures post Malone.

226
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:09,640
Holy balls dude.

227
00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:11,360
This is a killer cast.

228
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,040
This is going to be the.

229
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:19,080
I dare say this might be the best animated feature of the year.

230
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:23,640
I am damn near willing to call that now.

231
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:26,800
Okay that's a bold statement but I know.

232
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:30,520
I hope I'm not eating that the statement like when the movie comes out.

233
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,600
I mean you might considering Spider-Verse.

234
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:36,760
Oh shit I forgot about that.

235
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,600
Yeah across the Spider-Verse comes out this year buddy.

236
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:41,560
Oh damn.

237
00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:44,920
This is going to be the year for animated film then.

238
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,640
Yeah considering it's those two and then that new Pixar movie Elemental isn't that what

239
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:50,840
it was called.

240
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,600
Elemental I don't have the highest hopes for.

241
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,640
Like don't get me wrong I think it'll be good.

242
00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:00,720
But I don't know if he'll be on the same level as this movie and maybe I'm just like super

243
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:06,640
hyped because the trailer was absolutely bitchin.

244
00:15:06,640 --> 00:15:10,680
But I don't think Elemental is going to be on the same level like.

245
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:15,920
Dude I dare say Pixar or Disney Pixar.

246
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:19,640
I know Pixar is not doing is Pixar doing Elemental.

247
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:20,960
Yeah it's Pixar.

248
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:31,840
Okay I think Pixar is going to get left in the dirt with some of these studios.

249
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:33,960
Talking shit on Pixar huh.

250
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:42,440
Dude my issue is like Pixar animation like it's you can distinguish Pixar animation I

251
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,680
feel out of like anything.

252
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,880
Kind of the same situation with Disney animation.

253
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:56,120
It's very like realistic it's simplistic it's kind of it's basically what Disney it's basically

254
00:15:56,120 --> 00:16:00,640
a 3D version of just Disney hand drawn shit.

255
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:08,880
And Pixar has gotten a little bit better with kind of like caricatures of people.

256
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:15,600
Like and I'm thinking like Coco Incanto is Incanto Pixar.

257
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:17,440
No Incanto is Disney.

258
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:18,440
Okay whatever.

259
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,080
These two are so intertwined.

260
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:22,080
No I won't.

261
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:28,040
He'll learn don't worry guys I'll make sure that he does.

262
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:35,040
The basically what I'm getting at Pixar and Disney have very distinct styles that are

263
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:38,440
very easy to just kind of pick out.

264
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:48,920
And I don't think that it is as interesting as what Dreamworks is doing or maybe even

265
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:50,840
Illumination.

266
00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:56,160
I know Illumination is kind of well that one might be a stretch.

267
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,960
Dreamworks though is freaking rocking it.

268
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:02,480
I mean that Mario movie animation is looking incredible.

269
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,040
I'll give you that.

270
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:05,600
I will definitely give you that.

271
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:07,720
Yeah we forgot about that one.

272
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:13,000
What about Mario do you think that could be a contender for best animated film of the

273
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,000
year?

274
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:15,000
No.

275
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:16,000
Really?

276
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:19,400
I think it will be good but not animated of the year.

277
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,560
Okay alright.

278
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,160
But yeah it's just.

279
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:25,240
It's making some bold calls here people.

280
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:35,920
I know like so this I think people are like just itching for more stylized film.

281
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,040
And this is exactly that.

282
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:42,200
It is as stylized as you can possibly get.

283
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:50,640
Like all of the line work that you see it's all very like rough.

284
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:55,100
And it almost looks like coloring outside the lines a little bit.

285
00:17:55,100 --> 00:17:57,800
But it works really well.

286
00:17:57,800 --> 00:17:59,160
Yeah that's true.

287
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,600
So I'm loving what they're doing.

288
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:06,360
The animation studio was doing that real quick.

289
00:18:06,360 --> 00:18:07,360
Paramount.

290
00:18:07,360 --> 00:18:09,800
Oh okay.

291
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:13,920
So yeah Paramount's.

292
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:18,000
This might be something that blows Paramount up.

293
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:19,720
At least in terms of animation.

294
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:23,600
I guess we'll find out in August.

295
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:29,320
Yeah I am extremely excited for this movie.

296
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,440
Or actually it's just distributed by Paramount.

297
00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:34,120
It's not the studio.

298
00:18:34,120 --> 00:18:36,120
So it's showing.

299
00:18:36,120 --> 00:18:39,480
Oh Paramount Animation.

300
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,800
I didn't know that they have their own animation division but cool.

301
00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:48,360
Yeah so the production companies are Paramount Animation, Nickelodeon Movies, and Point Grey

302
00:18:48,360 --> 00:18:50,720
Pictures.

303
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:53,680
Which Point Grey is founded by Seth Rogen.

304
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:55,920
Okay cool.

305
00:18:55,920 --> 00:19:03,680
So I am extremely excited for what this movie is going to offer.

306
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:08,360
Like we said the cast is off the hook.

307
00:19:08,360 --> 00:19:13,560
And the kids that they chose to play the turtles.

308
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:19,100
Like we have, there's only one that I actually know.

309
00:19:19,100 --> 00:19:22,440
So I don't know any.

310
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:32,040
So Donatello is voiced by Micah Abbey who has been in a lot of Disney stuff.

311
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:33,960
Oh okay.

312
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:42,540
He was in a lot of episodes in this show called Cousins for Life on Disney.

313
00:19:42,540 --> 00:19:43,540
It looks like Disney.

314
00:19:43,540 --> 00:19:45,360
I'm not sure if it is.

315
00:19:45,360 --> 00:19:50,520
It might be Nick but it's like sitcom-esque.

316
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,520
The rest it's been like super small parts.

317
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:59,840
Like he was in two episodes of Grey's Anatomy, one episode of three different shows.

318
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:04,720
Like he hasn't been in a lot.

319
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:09,000
So this is going to be something that I think blows up his career.

320
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:14,200
Like this is going to be super good for him.

321
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:23,440
Mikey is going to be voiced by Shimon Brown Jr. who has only been in one show and it's

322
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,240
called The Chi.

323
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:30,200
It's a Showtime movie.

324
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:31,200
Or show.

325
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:35,920
Not a movie, show.

326
00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:42,540
So yeah he's been in a majority of those episodes.

327
00:20:42,540 --> 00:20:44,240
But that's all he's been in.

328
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:53,360
Then Leo is going to be voiced by Nicholas Cantu who hasn't been in a whole lot of shit.

329
00:20:53,360 --> 00:20:56,400
Just random episodes here and there.

330
00:20:56,400 --> 00:21:02,880
Like it's just maybe one episode, two episodes through just random shit.

331
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:03,880
Oh!

332
00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:10,120
Do you watch Have You Ever Seen the Amazing World of Gumball?

333
00:21:10,120 --> 00:21:12,080
No I'm not.

334
00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,520
Do you know what the show is though?

335
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:20,920
Yeah I've seen maybe like a little clips of it.

336
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:21,920
Never actually.

337
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:23,920
Like the blue cat?

338
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:25,320
Yeah.

339
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,960
So he was the voice of Gumball.

340
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:28,960
No shit.

341
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:29,960
Oh cool.

342
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:34,840
Yeah his voice actually fits really well for Leo.

343
00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:38,280
I think it does too.

344
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:43,880
The only one that I kind of, maybe it's just because I'm, Donny's my favorite.

345
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:48,040
His voice is maybe a little too high for me.

346
00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:52,960
His is like the only one I have a slight problem with but I'm still okay with it.

347
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,440
The other three sound fantastic.

348
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:59,240
I'll give you that.

349
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:07,880
Anyway then last up we got Raph who's going to be voiced by Brady Noon.

350
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:11,280
And you should know who that is.

351
00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:16,040
He was Thor the spiky haired kid in Good Boys.

352
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:18,960
Oh shit that's him?

353
00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:27,640
Yeah he was also the voice of Greg Heffley in the animated Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Roderick

354
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:28,640
Wool.

355
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:29,640
He was.

356
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:34,440
Yeah he was because I remember like complaining that why does Greg have a deeper voice than

357
00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:37,120
Roderick that doesn't make any sense.

358
00:22:37,120 --> 00:22:39,400
Yeah so he's voicing Raph.

359
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:42,920
Alright no wonder I love the voice so much.

360
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,000
Okay I love it.

361
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,640
Kid's actually pretty good at voice acting.

362
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,280
Yeah he's a great voice actor.

363
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,720
At least from what we got.

364
00:22:53,720 --> 00:23:04,680
So I do hope that they stick with the typical hierarchy of the turtles where Leo's the leader.

365
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:09,560
It kind of seems like it's going that route because Leo wasn't like actively participating

366
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:13,800
in the shenanigans that all the other turtles were.

367
00:23:13,800 --> 00:23:15,840
That is very true.

368
00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:20,240
It kind of seemed like oh as leader he needed to go be like a supervisor.

369
00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:21,240
Yeah that's true.

370
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:26,280
Well and also like the ending when they're talking to April about the whole what does

371
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:27,280
she say?

372
00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:32,520
Goo but then they're just like I mean you could say it that way but we like ooze it just rolls

373
00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:34,200
off the tongue.

374
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:39,320
Yeah wasn't like Leo like you could like he was like straight up at the front of the

375
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:43,200
packs and like the other three were kind of like a little behind him so I feel like they

376
00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,600
kind of know that he's the main one.

377
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:52,160
He's the man in charge but which is how it should be.

378
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,640
Oh yeah absolutely.

379
00:23:54,640 --> 00:24:00,200
Like Leo's always kind of been the perfect leader.

380
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:08,160
Oh yeah TM if you guys disagree whenever someone says oh I completely disagree you know Raphael

381
00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:11,280
should be the leader I'm just like go watch TMNT.

382
00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:13,000
Go watch TMNT.

383
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:20,200
That movie tells you exactly why Raph shouldn't be the leader but in the perfect way it's

384
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,320
not disrespectful to either of the characters.

385
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,840
Just there is a reason why Raphael should not be the leader.

386
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:28,560
That it should always be Leonardo.

387
00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:32,360
Yeah exactly.

388
00:24:32,360 --> 00:24:33,720
Like that's how I've always felt.

389
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:41,040
I'm just like even like thinking about who else could lead the turtles.

390
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:44,760
Mikey is just too fun.

391
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:51,920
Like too kind of laid back too free willy to lead.

392
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:56,880
Donatello I think is too logical.

393
00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:02,960
It's too logical for his own good where it's like maybe it would become more of a he'd

394
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,640
be a bigger problem.

395
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:11,480
I think making the decisions and trying to analyze every little thing before he like

396
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,400
attacks and it just ended up not working out very well.

397
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:18,560
And then Raph has anger issues.

398
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:22,680
So it's like Leo's just kind of the natural leader to that.

399
00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:27,520
So he's the most mellow headed out of all of them.

400
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:28,720
Yeah absolutely.

401
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:34,600
Like even I think even in the adaptation that they had where it was like Raph was leading

402
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:39,280
like from what I've seen Raph's pretty hot headed in that too.

403
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:43,240
Yeah oh yeah rise of the teenage mutant turtles.

404
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:48,940
Yeah which I hear like overall is like once you kind of get over some weird stuff it's

405
00:25:48,940 --> 00:25:52,520
actually a really I hear it's good series.

406
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:57,480
Yeah and dude the theme song is a freaking banger.

407
00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:01,360
Like that is one of my favorite theme songs of the whole franchise.

408
00:26:01,360 --> 00:26:02,360
Oh damn.

409
00:26:02,360 --> 00:26:04,040
Yeah have you heard the theme song?

410
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,040
I don't think I have.

411
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:09,320
Okay you got to listen to it after this episode.

412
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:15,160
Actually I'm going to take or pause it real quick and listen to the theme song.

413
00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:16,900
Alright.

414
00:26:16,900 --> 00:26:18,640
Okay that was a banger.

415
00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:19,640
Right?

416
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:21,640
It's so good.

417
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:30,840
Dude that had like everything that had like everything I love from like the original theme

418
00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:36,400
song that just the typical like teenage mutant ninch like that one.

419
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:38,640
Oh my gosh that's a banger dude.

420
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,840
Yeah the way they described all the turtles perfect.

421
00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:44,840
It's a great theme song.

422
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:49,840
That was a damn good theme song.

423
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:54,520
Alright so gosh I might just watch it for the theme song.

424
00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:58,840
That was damn good.

425
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,640
But yeah I don't have too much else to say about this.

426
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:03,160
Like no I'm stoked.

427
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,720
I'm over the moon.

428
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:07,760
I'm really excited for this.

429
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:13,160
The cast alone is just going to be the bomb.

430
00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:14,160
Dude straight up.

431
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:17,640
Are they going for an older?

432
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:19,680
Oh yeah they are.

433
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:24,960
It looks like they're going for an older April.

434
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:28,480
Like we talking like in our 20s?

435
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:32,400
I would say early 20s it seems.

436
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:33,400
Alright.

437
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:37,120
Yeah what the shit?

438
00:27:37,120 --> 00:27:39,160
Oh snap.

439
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:43,120
Dude the freaking the chick that they got to play.

440
00:27:43,120 --> 00:27:44,120
Oh what?

441
00:27:44,120 --> 00:27:51,400
Yeah so the chick that they got to play April is going to be in Thunderbolts.

442
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:52,760
No shit.

443
00:27:52,760 --> 00:28:01,320
Yeah so her name is Ayo Edibiri.

444
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:07,520
So most people would probably recognize her if you guys watch it.

445
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:11,600
From the Bear which is on Hulu.

446
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,520
It's the cooking show.

447
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:18,920
Trying to see what else she's in.

448
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:20,520
She's a really good actress.

449
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,560
I freaking loved her in the Bear.

450
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:28,240
Yeah there's not really anything else that you would have seen her in.

451
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:32,240
But I really like her.

452
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:34,520
She kind of like I...

453
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:39,000
It'll be interesting to see how old April ends up being because she does have a voice

454
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:43,720
that sounds a lot younger than she is.

455
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:46,360
So I mean they could take it either way.

456
00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:53,000
Like make her the same age as the turtles or older.

457
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,040
Like whatever they end up doing.

458
00:28:56,040 --> 00:29:00,040
So like I said nothing but excitement for this movie.

459
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:03,040
Agreed.

460
00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,520
Well that's all that we got for Through the Wall.

461
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:08,200
So what do you say we move on to our headliner of the year?

462
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:10,360
I say let's do it.

463
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:11,360
Alright.

464
00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:35,400
Alright so for this week's headliner we'll be breaking down Creed III.

465
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:39,480
Caleb would you like to let everybody know how we break down movies on this podcast?

466
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:42,000
I would love to.

467
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:47,840
So if you are new to our breakdown system we have split movies up into eight individual

468
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:55,160
categories that we score to come to a final All Bros letter grade.

469
00:29:55,160 --> 00:30:01,560
The eight categories that we score are story, writing, acting, character development, effects,

470
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:07,200
music, costumes, and then we give it our own personal score at the very end.

471
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:12,200
All of those numbers get magically added up and spit through our algorithm and give us

472
00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:20,440
a letter grade to compare this movie to others of a similar score.

473
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:29,800
The Gradehouse score is what's most important but we do get a percentage as well just to

474
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:38,840
see where ranking wise within that scoring block they are.

475
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:43,240
One day I'll come up with a better way to explain that but.

476
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:46,640
Hey it's okay.

477
00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:53,680
So if you have not seen Creed III this...

478
00:30:53,680 --> 00:31:01,280
Honestly I don't 100% know if you have to see the other two.

479
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:06,760
You know what I was thinking the same thing like because they kind of give you a refresher.

480
00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,640
A little bit.

481
00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:15,040
So I mean definitely go see the first one at least.

482
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:21,160
The second one I feel is a little too much of a Rocky movie so I think that one can be

483
00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:23,000
skipped.

484
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,800
The only thing that I think would confuse people because...

485
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,240
Oh is the freaking...

486
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:31,600
Because what's his face?

487
00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:32,600
Victor comes in.

488
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:33,600
Yeah Victor Drago.

489
00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:37,840
Yeah that's like the only thing I can think of that would people be like where the hell

490
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:39,360
did he come from?

491
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:47,200
Okay and well we'll say this just if you haven't seen the other two Creed's you probably will

492
00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:48,380
be okay.

493
00:31:48,380 --> 00:31:55,000
Just know that there's going to be some things that you miss but we would suggest watching

494
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:56,000
the other two.

495
00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:00,720
That is what we did in preparation for this because we didn't want to score this unfairly

496
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:07,520
about like maybe things that they threw in as Easter eggs.

497
00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:13,080
Don't count us doing this all the time though.

498
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:18,560
Like we did this because there was only two movies and they just happened to pop up on

499
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:19,960
HBO Max.

500
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:20,960
Even after I...

501
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:21,960
Oh my god.

502
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:24,960
That was hilarious dude.

503
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:26,840
Literally.

504
00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:31,160
I freaking so last week when we recorded this it's on Tuesday.

505
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:36,720
I'm like okay so we need to watch Creed 1 and 2 and so on Voodoo they were having a

506
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:40,280
sale for or a bundle pack of the first two for 10 bucks.

507
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,120
I'm like okay you know that's a really good deal.

508
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,440
10 bucks each so I bought it.

509
00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:49,600
Literally the next day Caleb texts me, Rose did you see what they put on HBO Max?

510
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:55,080
I'm like son of a bitch.

511
00:32:55,080 --> 00:33:02,920
So I was logging on to watch The Last of Us because I wasn't able to catch the episode

512
00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:05,620
when it got released on Sunday.

513
00:33:05,620 --> 00:33:12,360
So I was logging in to watch that and I saw the Creed and I was like oh no.

514
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:13,840
Did they ever email you back?

515
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:16,000
I forgot to ask.

516
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:17,280
Oh yeah they did.

517
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:19,040
What did they say?

518
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:23,880
I'm sure they said oh sorry we can't.

519
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:25,800
That is an excellent question.

520
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:30,800
One moment.

521
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:38,120
So the email I said that you needed to provide the following information, device used, exact

522
00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:44,400
title of the content purchased, and dates and amounts of charges.

523
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:45,400
And that's it.

524
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:47,240
But it doesn't get a link to it.

525
00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,120
That is very specific.

526
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:53,720
But it doesn't get a link to enter any of that.

527
00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:57,880
I guess they just want you to reply to the email with the, I don't know.

528
00:33:57,880 --> 00:33:58,960
It's 10 bucks.

529
00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:00,960
That's all good.

530
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:02,680
But now you got Creed 1 and 2.

531
00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:05,640
So you know, there you go.

532
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:06,640
True.

533
00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:18,680
But anyway, off that side note, yeah real quick also we had a question of the week in

534
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:20,280
reference to this movie.

535
00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:23,240
Oh yes, I almost forgot.

536
00:34:23,240 --> 00:34:33,200
So we did something that we haven't done before where we kind of had a, we put a poll in our

537
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,200
video.

538
00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:42,440
And so anyway, for those of you that don't know, on TikTok and Instagram we post a question

539
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:47,400
of the week in reference to Creed 3.

540
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:57,280
And we asked between peak Adonis Creed and peak Rocky Balboa if they were to go into

541
00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:02,880
like a boxing match who would win.

542
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:07,640
And we got a couple responses that were, so we just did like a poll, like Creed versus

543
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:11,200
Rocky.

544
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:14,960
And Rocky took this by storm.

545
00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:19,560
Yeah, he ended up getting 68% of the votes.

546
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:20,560
God damn.

547
00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:24,680
Wow, where's the love for Adonis?

548
00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:31,040
Over on Instagram because Instagram he got 75% of the votes.

549
00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:32,040
Hell yeah.

550
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:34,360
Woo, go Creed.

551
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:46,720
Yeah, and then actually technically it was 66% just because I had to like vote to be

552
00:35:46,720 --> 00:35:50,600
able to see what the count was.

553
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:52,520
And there were only three votes.

554
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:53,520
Awesome.

555
00:35:53,520 --> 00:36:00,720
So okay, there were two votes for Creed, one vote for Rocky.

556
00:36:00,720 --> 00:36:03,920
So yeah, I thought that was pretty funny.

557
00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:07,560
We did get some comments on that video.

558
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:16,400
So the first response we got is from the Sigma Chucky who said, I feel like it would be Creed

559
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:18,560
but at the same time it would be Balboa.

560
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:23,000
And I said, yeah, kind of a tough one.

561
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:27,760
Super tough, tough decision.

562
00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:33,200
Next up we got from Snoogans.

563
00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:38,080
They said Rocky, I've contemplated this for a while and I got to say Rocky.

564
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:43,560
And then DJ comes out of left corner with saying Clubber Lang.

565
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:44,560
Love it.

566
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:46,280
My man, DJ, my man.

567
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:52,920
Yeah, so Clubber Lang is a boxer from another Rocky movie, one that obviously we haven't

568
00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:53,920
seen.

569
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:55,480
Yeah, I've heard the name.

570
00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,160
Yeah, so he was played by Mr. T.

571
00:36:58,160 --> 00:36:59,160
Oh, okay.

572
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:03,480
Oh, no, man, I'm going for neither.

573
00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:05,480
I'm putting my money on Diamond Dame.

574
00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:06,480
That's all I'm putting my money on.

575
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:07,480
Diamond Dame?

576
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:08,480
Yep.

577
00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:12,480
I'm putting my money on Damien.

578
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:18,080
That's a spoiler, what I was about to say.

579
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:19,080
Nice catching yourself.

580
00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:20,080
Good job.

581
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,920
Yeah, you're out of your mind.

582
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,480
We'll see.

583
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:26,840
Yeah.

584
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:36,240
So we got that responses and then like I said, we got a bunch of interactions with our poll.

585
00:37:36,240 --> 00:37:44,880
Like a majority of the people that watched our video did our poll and it was just completely

586
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:49,120
on the side of Rocky.

587
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:50,760
So we definitely got to do these again.

588
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:51,760
Oh yeah.

589
00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:53,160
Start doing these more often.

590
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:54,160
Cool.

591
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:55,160
Yeah.

592
00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:57,880
So we're doing pretty well.

593
00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:04,680
So anyway, thank you to everyone that responded and clicked on the poll.

594
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:10,000
I am unfortunately not going to be able to tag every single one of you because there

595
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:17,440
was a lot, but I will be tagging the people that did put a comment in.

596
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:21,880
So thank you all of you for.

597
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:31,680
Before we get into this, if you have not seen Creed 3, please do yourself a favor and go

598
00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:37,040
check this out before Rose spoils the entire freaking movie for you.

599
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:38,040
Yep.

600
00:38:38,040 --> 00:38:39,040
All right.

601
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:43,280
Let's see how this reading with Rose segment goes.

602
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:45,360
All right.

603
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:50,960
In 2002 Los Angeles, a young Adonis Donny Creed sneaks out with his best friend, Golden Gloves

604
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:57,000
champion Damian Diamond Dame Anderson to watch him compete in an underground boxing match.

605
00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:00,720
After Dame's victory, he tells Donny about his aspirations to turn professional and become

606
00:39:00,720 --> 00:39:02,280
a world champion.

607
00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:06,600
During a detour at a liquor store, Donny impulsively attacks a man named Leon.

608
00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:11,760
In 2017, Donny fights and wins in a rematch against pretty Ricky Conlon, newly released

609
00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:16,640
from his sentence and working his way back to be a contender for a championship fight.

610
00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:21,480
Donny retires from boxing to focus on his wife, Bianca and their daughter Amara.

611
00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:26,480
Three years later, Donny runs Delphi Boxing Academy with his coach, Tony Little Duke Evers

612
00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:37,360
Jr. and is promoting his prodigy world champion, Felix El Guerrero Chavez in a match against

613
00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:38,960
Victor Drago.

614
00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:44,880
Due to her hearing problems, Bianca forgoes performing and becomes a successful producer.

615
00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:53,320
All the two keep watch over the declining health of Donny's adoptive mother, Mary Ann.

616
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:57,600
Amara aspires to become a boxer like Donny, which gets her in trouble at school for punching

617
00:39:57,600 --> 00:39:59,960
another student.

618
00:39:59,960 --> 00:40:04,240
Dame reconnects with Donny after getting out of jail, to whom he shares desires to continue

619
00:40:04,240 --> 00:40:05,960
his boxing career.

620
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:09,740
Donny reluctantly invites Dame to the gym to spar with Chavez, however his aggressive

621
00:40:09,740 --> 00:40:13,040
style draws scorn from Chavez and Duke.

622
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:16,940
Donny later visits Donny's home, where he meets his family and shares about their time

623
00:40:16,940 --> 00:40:20,880
together at a group home, which Bianca has never heard of.

624
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:25,840
Privately Dame asks for a little shot against Chavez, citing Donny's previous 1 in a million

625
00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:29,000
shot which Donny refuses.

626
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:39,080
At a party for Bianca's record label, Dame cryptically tells Bianca about Leon and that

627
00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:42,360
Adonis was keeping it a secret from her.

628
00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:46,280
Drago is attacked by an unknown assailant and becomes too injured to participate in

629
00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:48,320
his match against Chavez.

630
00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:52,120
Not wanting to lose the money spent on the event, Donny suggests Dame as an opponent,

631
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:57,660
pitching an underdog fight much like Rocky Balboa's first title shot, which Chavez accepts.

632
00:40:57,660 --> 00:41:01,680
During the fight, Dame fights dirty but knocks out Chavez, winning the undisputed heavyweight

633
00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,080
championship.

634
00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:09,360
Following the match, an uneasy Donny visits Mary Ann, who shows him letters Dame wrote

635
00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:14,760
to Donny while in prison that she kept from him due to believing he was a bad influence.

636
00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:18,380
One letter contains a picture showing Dame with a fellow inmate that Donny recognizes

637
00:41:18,380 --> 00:41:20,800
as the one who assaulted Drago.

638
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:23,600
Realizing Dame orchestrated the attack, Donny confronts him.

639
00:41:23,600 --> 00:41:28,340
Dame reveals that he manipulated all their encounters to set him up as a champion before

640
00:41:28,340 --> 00:41:30,240
giving him a black eye.

641
00:41:30,240 --> 00:41:35,000
Donny is unable to open up to Bianca about his guilt over Dame, who revels in his newfound

642
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:39,840
fame and publicly slanders Donny as a fraud who turned his back on him.

643
00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:42,220
Mary Ann suffers another stroke and dies.

644
00:41:42,220 --> 00:41:47,280
After her funeral, Donny confesses to Bianca the truth that Leon was the abusive caregiver

645
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:51,420
in the group home he and Dame lived in before he was adopted.

646
00:41:51,420 --> 00:41:55,860
After Donny attacked Leon at the liquor store, a brawl against Leon's friends ensued, causing

647
00:41:55,860 --> 00:41:57,360
Dame to pull a gun.

648
00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:00,360
As the police arrived, Donny fled but Dame was arrested.

649
00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:05,160
Attempting to block out the memory, Donny never contacted Dame out of shame and guilt.

650
00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:09,480
Knowing Dame would not stop defaming him, he tells Bianca there's only one way to bring

651
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:10,800
him down.

652
00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:17,600
Donny goes on first take, where Dame calls in to goad Donny over the phone.

653
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:21,640
Donny decides to come out of retirement and challenges Dame for the championship, which

654
00:42:21,640 --> 00:42:23,640
she accepts.

655
00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:30,080
After training with Duke and a recovered Drago, Donny faces Dame in the Battle of Los Angeles

656
00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:31,720
at Dodger Stadium.

657
00:42:31,720 --> 00:42:35,160
Donny faces Dame in a grueling, evenly matched affair.

658
00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:39,560
Donny has visions of his abusive foster home and Dame's life in jail, leading to a knockdown

659
00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:41,320
in the final round.

660
00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:46,760
Donny sees his family in the crowd and lets go of his fear and guilt using Duke's advice.

661
00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:52,440
Adonis rises and intimidates a tired Dame, delivering a knockout to win the match and

662
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:53,440
championship.

663
00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:58,000
Afterwards, Donny reconciles with Dame, with both men admitting it was not the other's

664
00:42:58,000 --> 00:42:59,000
fault.

665
00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:02,720
Donny joins Bianca and Amara in the ring in the empty stadium where he pretends to box

666
00:43:02,720 --> 00:43:03,720
with Amara.

667
00:43:03,720 --> 00:43:04,720
Oh man.

668
00:43:04,720 --> 00:43:11,560
Dude, such an improvement from the second movie.

669
00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:14,360
Dude, straight up.

670
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:15,360
You know what?

671
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:19,080
I'm going to say probably a very unpopular opinion with this movie.

672
00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:23,840
So I know, I'm sure a lot of people know that Sylvester Stallone was not in this movie.

673
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:26,740
He had his resyncs, blah blah blah blah blah.

674
00:43:26,740 --> 00:43:28,360
I did not miss him.

675
00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:29,360
I'm sorry.

676
00:43:29,360 --> 00:43:35,400
Like literally once the credits started rolling I'm like, oh yeah, Rocky wasn't in this movie.

677
00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:41,480
But I didn't notice because the story and the characters were just that freaking good.

678
00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:45,600
And I love that this is actually, it's finally Adonis' story.

679
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:46,960
It's just all focused on him.

680
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:51,680
We don't have like them like, and I know like they didn't try to focus on Rocky in the first

681
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:54,840
two, but it still felt like they were hanging on to that.

682
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:59,920
Like, oh, we got to make sure that we give Rocky a good amount of spotlight just because

683
00:43:59,920 --> 00:44:01,800
you know, he's the character that started this franchise.

684
00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:06,760
So, you know, we got to bring the people that love that, love this franchise for him back

685
00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:09,220
to see these movies.

686
00:44:09,220 --> 00:44:14,560
But the fact that he's not in this, I didn't miss him.

687
00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:17,280
Maybe it's just because I haven't seen any of the Rocky movies.

688
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:23,040
These are the only Rocky franchise movies that I have seen.

689
00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:28,080
So yeah, Sylvester Stallone wasn't in this and I didn't miss him one bit.

690
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:30,160
Nothing against Sylvester Stallone.

691
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:31,480
Just didn't miss him.

692
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:37,320
Dude, that is exactly what my issue was with the second one.

693
00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:44,560
It felt so much like it was focused around Rocky, kind of hidden by the fact that it

694
00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:57,480
was Drago, the one that killed Apollo, which I mean, it tracks like the motivation was

695
00:44:57,480 --> 00:45:06,580
there, but it's they focus so heavily on Rocky's feelings about the fight that it really distracted

696
00:45:06,580 --> 00:45:12,840
from Adonis and Adonis deserved better.

697
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:16,480
He really did, but he got way better in this one.

698
00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:19,480
He got so much better in this one.

699
00:45:19,480 --> 00:45:22,240
Like he got treated right, I feel.

700
00:45:22,240 --> 00:45:26,040
And it is so freaking good.

701
00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:30,080
Like I'm like I'm with you.

702
00:45:30,080 --> 00:45:34,640
I was kind of about Rocky not being there.

703
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:43,880
I know that it was that there was kind of drama behind the scenes, but I'm glad that

704
00:45:43,880 --> 00:45:45,280
he wasn't in this, too.

705
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:50,320
I think if he was, it would have just kind of distracted and felt like another Rocky

706
00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:58,360
movie, whereas this actually truly felt like it was Adonis's story.

707
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:02,120
I want to say it was in an interview that they asked Michael B. Jordan, you know, like

708
00:46:02,120 --> 00:46:05,200
about the absence of Sylvester Stallone and everything.

709
00:46:05,200 --> 00:46:08,200
And he said, I'm going to tell you this right now.

710
00:46:08,200 --> 00:46:13,080
Most fans that have watched the Creed movies, some of them haven't even seen a Rocky movie.

711
00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:19,200
So they really could probably care less if Rocky was in the third one.

712
00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:22,920
But he was very, what's the word, civil.

713
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:27,880
I don't think there's any bad blood between Michael B. Jordan and Sylvester Stallone.

714
00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:28,880
I could be wrong.

715
00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:29,880
No, absolutely not.

716
00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:34,360
Because he said he's more than welcome to come back whenever he wants.

717
00:46:34,360 --> 00:46:45,200
Yeah, they've said that, but Sylvester agreed to help produce this movie because of how

718
00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:48,160
much he enjoyed working with Michael B. Jordan.

719
00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:55,680
The reason that he wasn't in this is because he now refuses to be in any of the movies.

720
00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:59,320
He refuses to work with the Wexlers.

721
00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:03,320
He's in because he wants to, he wants to all the rights to Rocky.

722
00:47:03,320 --> 00:47:06,400
I think it's something along those lines.

723
00:47:06,400 --> 00:47:07,400
Yeah.

724
00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:11,480
But I'm like, okay, like, whatever.

725
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:18,240
But again, it's just, I don't, I don't think he needed to be in this one.

726
00:47:18,240 --> 00:47:21,120
The first one, I would say, yeah, I think he-

727
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:22,120
That one made sense.

728
00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:23,120
Oh yeah.

729
00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:26,440
Like that one definitely made sense.

730
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:32,280
Like it tracks exactly like his motivations there.

731
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:38,240
Like going to the man that knew most about his father.

732
00:47:38,240 --> 00:47:45,480
Like it tracked, it worked really well for what the movie was.

733
00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:53,080
It wasn't until it was the second one that just, like I said, felt a little too Rocky

734
00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:54,080
for me.

735
00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:56,080
No, I agree.

736
00:47:56,080 --> 00:48:00,280
Adonis really takes a, what's the word?

737
00:48:00,280 --> 00:48:04,080
A, god damn it, a backseat.

738
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:05,080
Yeah.

739
00:48:05,080 --> 00:48:06,080
Yeah.

740
00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:07,080
In his own freaking movie.

741
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:08,080
Takes the backseat to his own story.

742
00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:09,080
Yeah, that's bullshit.

743
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:15,400
Yeah, and it's all because Rocky, like, don't get me wrong, freaking Rocky and his motivational,

744
00:48:15,400 --> 00:48:19,320
like pump up speeches were the shit.

745
00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:24,280
But he didn't need to be in it as much as he was.

746
00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:33,760
So with this one, I am really glad that it was just solely Adonis' story.

747
00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:42,000
I think they did an excellent job, like giving him like a proper motivation, kind of not

748
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:45,360
being super predictable like the second one was.

749
00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:50,720
The second one, I compare to a freaking Dragon Ball movie.

750
00:48:50,720 --> 00:48:54,960
Or, not a movie, a Dragon Ball show.

751
00:48:54,960 --> 00:49:03,320
Because in Dragon Ball, a new enemy appears, beats up the hero, the hero narrowly escapes

752
00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:05,240
with his life.

753
00:49:05,240 --> 00:49:11,640
He then turns around and trains super hard and then comes back and defeats the bad guy

754
00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:18,160
in like a, in a, just, I don't know how to explain it, but just comes and defeats the

755
00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:21,120
enemy that previously beat him up.

756
00:49:21,120 --> 00:49:24,200
And everyone cheers and blah blah blah.

757
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:28,400
Like, freaking, it's just so formulaic and that's exactly what they did.

758
00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:29,400
Yeah.

759
00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:32,680
That is exactly what they did with the second one.

760
00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:40,240
To a freaking T. Like, oh, Victor Drago's this total freaking badass and whooped him

761
00:49:40,240 --> 00:49:44,760
within an inch of his life and then he comes and he's like, you need to train to old school

762
00:49:44,760 --> 00:49:47,600
and like this is how I beat him.

763
00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:51,720
Like, freaking, like, come on, dude.

764
00:49:51,720 --> 00:49:59,840
Like, I can give a flying shit about how you beat Drago way back when, at least now.

765
00:49:59,840 --> 00:50:07,400
So I did appreciate that in this one they brought Victor back and it kind of like took

766
00:50:07,400 --> 00:50:12,680
me back for a minute, but then I'm like, wait, the only reason that Victor was fighting was

767
00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:16,600
to make his, for his dad to love him, to make him happy.

768
00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:21,680
Like he was only in this because he knew the story between his dad and Rocky.

769
00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:23,680
So you know, he wanted to help his dad out.

770
00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:26,400
There was no bad blood between him and Adonis.

771
00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:28,400
Oh yeah.

772
00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:32,800
And I think that dude did amazingly well at like showing that.

773
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:33,880
Oh yeah.

774
00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:38,640
Like even in the second one, like he was throwing his gloves up, like he was trying to be super

775
00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:40,320
respectful and everything.

776
00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:42,600
It was Adonis that was being a freaking dick.

777
00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:44,160
Yeah, seriously.

778
00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:45,160
Yeah.

779
00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:48,880
And if you come on, if you don't touch gloves, you're a freaking asshole.

780
00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:49,880
Yeah.

781
00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:53,400
That's just like a super disrespectful move.

782
00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:57,640
Like honestly, if I was Victor and he didn't do that, I'm going to knock your ass out and

783
00:50:57,640 --> 00:51:03,080
I'm going to enjoy it this time, buddy.

784
00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:04,520
Yeah.

785
00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:12,120
But like, like focusing on this one, it was nice to see that they were able to overcome

786
00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:18,560
those hurdles and become friends, I guess.

787
00:51:18,560 --> 00:51:21,960
I mean, that's what I would view it as.

788
00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:22,960
I would think so.

789
00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:28,760
I mean, he came when Adonis asked him to, to help him out for this, the match against

790
00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:29,760
Damien.

791
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:32,840
So it wasn't even necessarily Adonis that asked.

792
00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:39,040
I think it was Duke, but he came to like support.

793
00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:42,680
He came to support Adonis in his time of need.

794
00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:43,680
Yeah.

795
00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:48,120
Like that was great and really well done.

796
00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:55,200
The dude, the story that they that they told was was incredible.

797
00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:58,560
I love that they did like these flashbacks.

798
00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:03,640
Dude, I do because I don't know about you, but like at the beginning of the first one

799
00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:09,280
when we're first introduced to Adonis as a kid and you know, it's right before, what's

800
00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:10,280
her name?

801
00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:11,280
Gloria?

802
00:52:11,280 --> 00:52:12,280
Is that her name?

803
00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:13,280
His mom?

804
00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:14,280
Marianne.

805
00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:15,280
Marianne.

806
00:52:15,280 --> 00:52:17,480
I don't know where I got Gloria.

807
00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:18,480
Sorry.

808
00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:23,720
You know, before she, you know, you know, picks him up on the fight that he gets into

809
00:52:23,720 --> 00:52:29,440
and everything, like, I don't know, like, I was very curious, curious to see like, okay,

810
00:52:29,440 --> 00:52:33,040
before this moment, like how bad was his childhood?

811
00:52:33,040 --> 00:52:37,440
Like the, you know, the fact that his dad was Apollo Creed, his dad died when he was

812
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:38,440
young.

813
00:52:38,440 --> 00:52:44,280
I was very, very curious to see not only what happened before, but what happened after because

814
00:52:44,280 --> 00:52:49,680
Dame Damien and him didn't like, did they know each other like super young or was it

815
00:52:49,680 --> 00:52:56,280
like when we were introduced to them, was that like, like, oh, oh, no, they had to have

816
00:52:56,280 --> 00:52:58,840
known each other for quite a while, right?

817
00:52:58,840 --> 00:53:03,000
Like probably since they were like pretty young kids.

818
00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:07,440
So they were in like the group home together.

819
00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:08,440
Okay.

820
00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:17,240
Adonis was kind of like Adonis had been adopted at that point when they were, when he was

821
00:53:17,240 --> 00:53:21,360
sneaking off to go to the fights with, with Damien.

822
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:23,080
Oh yeah.

823
00:53:23,080 --> 00:53:24,080
Okay.

824
00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:27,960
So this, so they knew them.

825
00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:35,320
So Adonis knew Damien prior to him being adopted by Marianne.

826
00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:36,320
Gotcha.

827
00:53:36,320 --> 00:53:37,320
Okay.

828
00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:38,320
Makes sense.

829
00:53:38,320 --> 00:53:39,320
And yeah.

830
00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:41,560
So like that relationship was already there.

831
00:53:41,560 --> 00:53:47,000
It's just not something that we saw because it was just like he was in juvie.

832
00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:48,000
Yeah.

833
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:51,680
Which honestly, the way that they set it up in this movie, I feel was like perfect.

834
00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:53,640
I, I didn't really need more.

835
00:53:53,640 --> 00:54:01,480
I would have been fine getting more about their, their relationship as, as a younger,

836
00:54:01,480 --> 00:54:06,760
younger, I mean, they were honestly brothers, so like younger brothers.

837
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:08,400
But I'm okay with what we got.

838
00:54:08,400 --> 00:54:14,680
Like they, they told us what we needed to know to understand where each, each one was

839
00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:16,040
coming from.

840
00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:18,480
Yeah, exactly.

841
00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:26,320
I think they did an excellent job just crafting this, this story and getting us to understand

842
00:54:26,320 --> 00:54:32,000
why the bad blood was there.

843
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:35,520
I do have a question for you.

844
00:54:35,520 --> 00:54:40,640
So when he gets out of jail, Damien says he spent 18 years.

845
00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:41,640
Yes.

846
00:54:41,640 --> 00:54:42,920
Okay.

847
00:54:42,920 --> 00:54:45,140
Maybe I just didn't catch it.

848
00:54:45,140 --> 00:54:50,320
But was the only thing that he went to jail for was having a gun?

849
00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:53,240
So what else did they say it was?

850
00:54:53,240 --> 00:54:59,280
It was kind of a, it was a violation of his parole because he, he had already been in

851
00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:02,000
trouble before.

852
00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:10,360
And so he like getting caught with the gun, him being a legal adult and all, like all

853
00:55:10,360 --> 00:55:12,260
that just kind of stacked up against him.

854
00:55:12,260 --> 00:55:18,880
So he was just more like not, he was trying to actively avoid trouble.

855
00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:19,880
Okay.

856
00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:25,640
And so when that came, when that whole situation came up, it was just, they caught an 18 year

857
00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:36,000
old pulling a gun on someone with two witnesses and just shit storm, just an complete and

858
00:55:36,000 --> 00:55:37,320
utter shit storm.

859
00:55:37,320 --> 00:55:38,320
Okay.

860
00:55:38,320 --> 00:55:39,680
That makes more sense.

861
00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:45,680
Yeah, so it's, it's, it tracks that he would have been, and then like on top of that, you

862
00:55:45,680 --> 00:55:48,240
had to add the assault charges.

863
00:55:48,240 --> 00:55:51,360
Yeah, that's true.

864
00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:53,440
So it sucks.

865
00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:54,440
It adds up.

866
00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:55,440
Yeah.

867
00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:58,960
Like all that shit just, just add it up.

868
00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:06,080
So I mean, like you understand like why he'd be so pissed cause it's like 18 years of his

869
00:56:06,080 --> 00:56:08,240
life is just gone.

870
00:56:08,240 --> 00:56:10,120
Yeah.

871
00:56:10,120 --> 00:56:19,240
And he was already older than Adonis and wanting to go and claim the championship title.

872
00:56:19,240 --> 00:56:21,360
So it made sense.

873
00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:28,760
And dude, the way that like it built up to this final fight was awesome.

874
00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:31,200
Oh yeah.

875
00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:35,120
This is my fair bill to any final fight in the, in these three movies.

876
00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:36,120
Oh yeah.

877
00:56:36,120 --> 00:56:37,120
It really feels earned.

878
00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:38,120
Yeah.

879
00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:47,280
Like the buildup to the, like I said, with both of those, it felt very Rocky escort.

880
00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:54,280
So like, oh, we get to see him train and it's just training to get to the point of being

881
00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:56,640
able to win this fight with here.

882
00:56:56,640 --> 00:57:01,720
Here, like we get to see the training, but we get to see like the motivation behind it

883
00:57:01,720 --> 00:57:02,720
too.

884
00:57:02,720 --> 00:57:07,520
So speaking of the training, I, sorry, I got to bring this up cause this is the one of

885
00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:10,920
the funniest movie theater experiences I've ever had.

886
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:15,320
So during like the whole training montage where I don't know if it was, they were going

887
00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:18,520
for Michael B. Jordan or Jonathan Majors.

888
00:57:18,520 --> 00:57:23,160
I think it was Michael B. Jordan, but like, you know, like the scene where like he's like,

889
00:57:23,160 --> 00:57:27,240
you know, shirts off, like sweaty, you know, like really shiny.

890
00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:31,280
There was someone in front of me that was like waving their hand.

891
00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:34,840
They're just like, Oh my God, he's so hot.

892
00:57:34,840 --> 00:57:37,120
It was all this.

893
00:57:37,120 --> 00:57:40,720
I had a fricking bite in my tongue from not laughing.

894
00:57:40,720 --> 00:57:43,240
It was so funny.

895
00:57:43,240 --> 00:57:44,800
Oh my God.

896
00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:46,440
That's an Osler.

897
00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:47,440
Right?

898
00:57:47,440 --> 00:57:48,440
Oh man.

899
00:57:48,440 --> 00:57:51,920
I mean, Michael B. Jordan's a good looking guy or I don't know if it was Jonathan Majors

900
00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:52,920
they were doing it for.

901
00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:53,920
Like I said, I feel it was-

902
00:57:53,920 --> 00:57:54,920
It could have been either of them.

903
00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:55,920
Yeah.

904
00:57:55,920 --> 00:57:56,920
Yeah.

905
00:57:56,920 --> 00:57:59,440
I mean, both look great.

906
00:57:59,440 --> 00:58:03,640
But I would never like fricking just start like fanning myself like, Oh my God, they're

907
00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:04,640
so hot.

908
00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:08,280
Oh my God.

909
00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:09,280
Was it a woman?

910
00:58:09,280 --> 00:58:11,640
No, I think it was a guy.

911
00:58:11,640 --> 00:58:12,640
There was a guy?

912
00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:13,640
Yeah.

913
00:58:13,640 --> 00:58:14,640
It was a guy.

914
00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:15,640
I'm just like, you know what?

915
00:58:15,640 --> 00:58:18,640
Good for you for, you know, showing your pride.

916
00:58:18,640 --> 00:58:20,840
Like you know what?

917
00:58:20,840 --> 00:58:25,600
Like I would not be doing that just because that's, I get embarrassed, but you know what?

918
00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:29,640
Kudos to you for not being ashamed to do that.

919
00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:30,640
Yeah.

920
00:58:30,640 --> 00:58:31,640
Fair enough.

921
00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:32,640
Yeah.

922
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:40,160
But one thing that I really liked about that scene and usually like with those montage

923
00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:48,160
scenes, like I typically like really dislike those in any sports movie, not just boxing

924
00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:49,160
or whatever.

925
00:58:49,160 --> 00:58:51,320
It's just any sports movie.

926
00:58:51,320 --> 00:58:58,880
His arts like so aggravating, but what I really liked was the, um, seeing the differences

927
00:58:58,880 --> 00:59:02,320
between their training style.

928
00:59:02,320 --> 00:59:12,840
Like Adonis was training for like was winning, was trying to win for something.

929
00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:17,640
Whereas Damien was trying, it felt more like he was trying to show off.

930
00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:22,680
Like all of his workouts were very public.

931
00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:28,240
Everything it didn't, it wasn't like consistent training.

932
00:59:28,240 --> 00:59:32,520
It was just, it seemed like it was more showing off than anything showing off like I'm the

933
00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:35,960
champ and all that stuff.

934
00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:43,180
Whereas Adonis was training in like an airplane hanger by himself.

935
00:59:43,180 --> 00:59:47,120
I mean, obviously like with his trainers and whatnot, but he was training by himself and

936
00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:55,040
he was doing like the mental work and just like getting that out.

937
00:59:55,040 --> 00:59:58,320
And then it just kind of all came to blows during the final fight.

938
00:59:58,320 --> 01:00:02,080
And I'm so glad that with what they did with the final fight.

939
01:00:02,080 --> 01:00:09,680
Dude, you know what I really liked is, um, like I feel for the most part, a lot of like,

940
01:00:09,680 --> 01:00:15,640
um, uh, wow, Adonis' opponents had kind of like the same, not same fighting style, but

941
01:00:15,640 --> 01:00:19,200
the same like blocking stance or like the way that they did.

942
01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:21,600
Damien's was so different.

943
01:00:21,600 --> 01:00:26,200
The way that he would block, the way that he would like do a run up or just, I appreciated

944
01:00:26,200 --> 01:00:30,240
that so much that their fighting styles were so different.

945
01:00:30,240 --> 01:00:31,480
I loved that.

946
01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:32,480
Yeah.

947
01:00:32,480 --> 01:00:38,760
I think the, the cinematography for this was, was done incredibly well.

948
01:00:38,760 --> 01:00:46,760
It really like showed the, um, the contrast between their fighting styles.

949
01:00:46,760 --> 01:00:53,080
Whereas Damien's was just super rough, like going in for like the big blows and Adonis

950
01:00:53,080 --> 01:01:01,760
was just ducking and weaving and like putting up a fight, like strategy was behind it rather

951
01:01:01,760 --> 01:01:03,360
than wild haymakers.

952
01:01:03,360 --> 01:01:13,480
Dude, I will say it was, it was honestly kind of hard watching, um, Damien, uh, fight Chavez.

953
01:01:13,480 --> 01:01:18,640
Like for how fricking brutal and just him, like, I love how that worked up.

954
01:01:18,640 --> 01:01:22,760
Dude, I love how the ref's just like, the, the ref is literally just like, you know what,

955
01:01:22,760 --> 01:01:25,760
maybe he needs to look, take another look at that rule book.

956
01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:29,960
Yeah, cause he's fighting dirty.

957
01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:30,960
Yeah.

958
01:01:30,960 --> 01:01:31,960
He was like, God damn.

959
01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:37,040
Like it was, it was bad, but

960
01:01:37,040 --> 01:01:41,200
Yeah like fricking when he did like the elbow to his face, it was, it was his elbow, right?

961
01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:42,200
The clipped his face.

962
01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:43,200
Yeah.

963
01:01:43,200 --> 01:01:44,200
I was like, Oh shit.

964
01:01:44,200 --> 01:01:45,200
Yeah.

965
01:01:45,200 --> 01:01:46,840
He was fighting dirt.

966
01:01:46,840 --> 01:01:51,520
Like I think boxing is only like, hold on.

967
01:01:51,520 --> 01:01:53,560
All right.

968
01:01:53,560 --> 01:01:57,160
The commonly accepted rules for boxing.

969
01:01:57,160 --> 01:02:05,000
Fighters may not hit below the belt, trip, hold, kick, headbutt, bite, push, or spit

970
01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:06,240
on opponents.

971
01:02:06,240 --> 01:02:10,680
You cannot strike with your head, forearm, or elbows.

972
01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:17,720
You cannot hit with an open glove, wrist or backhand, only closed fist punches.

973
01:02:17,720 --> 01:02:24,160
Fighters may not strike their opponent in the back, back of the head, neck, or kidneys.

974
01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:31,240
You cannot hold or use the ropes to gain leverage for a punch.

975
01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:34,320
Basically following what the referee says.

976
01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:37,400
You cannot hit an opponent once they are knocked down.

977
01:02:37,400 --> 01:02:43,120
A floored boxer has 10 seconds to get up before being declared loser.

978
01:02:43,120 --> 01:02:48,380
Boxers hit with an accidental low blow, given a specified amount of time to recover, usually

979
01:02:48,380 --> 01:02:49,840
five minutes.

980
01:02:49,840 --> 01:02:55,240
If they are unable to at the end of their time, then they are disqualified.

981
01:02:55,240 --> 01:02:58,080
All bouts are scored by three judges.

982
01:02:58,080 --> 01:02:59,080
Okay.

983
01:02:59,080 --> 01:03:02,720
So yeah, he was definitely playing dirty.

984
01:03:02,720 --> 01:03:04,360
Oh yeah.

985
01:03:04,360 --> 01:03:12,520
It just, from what I see, there's nothing against hitting the arm or like that or shoulders,

986
01:03:12,520 --> 01:03:18,400
but it definitely seems like it's a shady thing to do.

987
01:03:18,400 --> 01:03:20,280
Alright, good to know.

988
01:03:20,280 --> 01:03:25,280
I mean, I don't plan ever to get into boxing, but you know, that's good to know.

989
01:03:25,280 --> 01:03:30,120
Yeah, no thanks.

990
01:03:30,120 --> 01:03:36,640
I will say though, I definitely can see an appeal to boxing or just fighting like that

991
01:03:36,640 --> 01:03:41,400
in general, because like, especially if you deal with like anger issues.

992
01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:42,400
Oh yeah.

993
01:03:42,400 --> 01:03:45,400
Like great way to take it out.

994
01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:51,600
Yeah, I feel like boxing or just fighting in general, where you can like release all

995
01:03:51,600 --> 01:03:54,240
that pent up aggression.

996
01:03:54,240 --> 01:04:01,560
Because like, I remember like the fights that I got in with school or the fights I got in

997
01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:02,560
with my brothers.

998
01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:11,600
I know those are different, but typically after those fights, it's like we would fight

999
01:04:11,600 --> 01:04:17,680
it out, give it our all, and then afterwards we'd just be able to like sit there and kind

1000
01:04:17,680 --> 01:04:20,640
of come to terms with our differences.

1001
01:04:20,640 --> 01:04:27,080
Like it was a good way to just kind of get it out there.

1002
01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:31,480
It's almost like being able to feel where that person's at.

1003
01:04:31,480 --> 01:04:35,880
It's an interesting way to look at it.

1004
01:04:35,880 --> 01:04:41,800
And it's like the conversations that I would have with those people that I would fight

1005
01:04:41,800 --> 01:04:47,000
with afterwards weren't like deep or anything.

1006
01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:50,040
It's just there was an understanding there.

1007
01:04:50,040 --> 01:04:56,520
Like I'm trying to like explain this, but it's like I remember there was like a fight

1008
01:04:56,520 --> 01:05:07,280
that I got in that was like a really bad one, where afterwards we were able to like we talked

1009
01:05:07,280 --> 01:05:14,280
for a minute, but it just felt like what I was doing was more like defending against

1010
01:05:14,280 --> 01:05:19,840
his attacks and maybe like even countering them.

1011
01:05:19,840 --> 01:05:28,920
Like it was just stupid schoolhouse fighting, but it felt like he was going after something

1012
01:05:28,920 --> 01:05:33,040
with a lot more aggression than I was.

1013
01:05:33,040 --> 01:05:37,320
And I was just more like trying to keep him from hurting me.

1014
01:05:37,320 --> 01:05:44,000
And then it just kind of afterwards, like you can kind of like still sense that he had

1015
01:05:44,000 --> 01:05:51,200
a built up anger within him that I wasn't holding.

1016
01:05:51,200 --> 01:05:55,600
But then there's also been times where you could tell that there was like a mutual anger.

1017
01:05:55,600 --> 01:06:05,200
It's just I think I forget like where I heard it, but fighting someone I think is the best

1018
01:06:05,200 --> 01:06:10,160
way to figure out who someone is.

1019
01:06:10,160 --> 01:06:14,840
Because I mean, because you get to see like, do they fight dirty?

1020
01:06:14,840 --> 01:06:18,960
Do they have some sort like sense of honor about them?

1021
01:06:18,960 --> 01:06:23,520
Like are they going to frickin just like pop you in the nuts and beat the shit out of you?

1022
01:06:23,520 --> 01:06:30,480
Like you can always kind of tell who someone is based on how they fight or what they're

1023
01:06:30,480 --> 01:06:31,480
holding up.

1024
01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:37,840
Like if like if it just kind of starts off like light, light hits and then just kind

1025
01:06:37,840 --> 01:06:43,760
of gets more aggressive and like you can sense all that within a fight.

1026
01:06:43,760 --> 01:06:52,560
And I think that this movie showed off those feelings really well where Adonis was more

1027
01:06:52,560 --> 01:06:58,180
kind of defense, ducking, dodging, trying to get out of the way and showing that he

1028
01:06:58,180 --> 01:07:01,600
has an affinity to to run away.

1029
01:07:01,600 --> 01:07:06,280
Or that's how he felt that he's a coward that runs away.

1030
01:07:06,280 --> 01:07:14,840
And then Damien, who's just holding all this anger in and you can see it just come out

1031
01:07:14,840 --> 01:07:18,720
with every punch that he throws.

1032
01:07:18,720 --> 01:07:25,480
Like you can see just the weight behind it and it's intimidating for sure.

1033
01:07:25,480 --> 01:07:31,560
And I think they they they shot that in such a way that made it way more impactful than

1034
01:07:31,560 --> 01:07:38,240
it would be if they just kind of like shot it like a boxing match.

1035
01:07:38,240 --> 01:07:43,760
And I think showing that they were both kind of viewing things the same way where like

1036
01:07:43,760 --> 01:07:50,360
Adonis was sitting there staring at Damien, seeing the 18 year old version of him and

1037
01:07:50,360 --> 01:07:56,680
then Damien doing the same thing staring back at Adonis and seeing the kid version of him.

1038
01:07:56,680 --> 01:08:03,640
And then they just, boom, go right at it again and just like the metaphorical fight that

1039
01:08:03,640 --> 01:08:08,120
we see where it just you can see that they're giving their all and they're getting thrown

1040
01:08:08,120 --> 01:08:15,840
up against like these hurdles like with Adonis getting thrown up and like the the ropes getting

1041
01:08:15,840 --> 01:08:24,160
turned into like chain or a like a cell block, like a jail cell or whatever.

1042
01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:30,120
It's just it was freaking interesting as hell to watch and I freaking loved it.

1043
01:08:30,120 --> 01:08:34,480
But anyway, what are you sitting at with the story?

1044
01:08:34,480 --> 01:08:43,360
For how much I just enjoyed this story just that focused on Adonis didn't mention Rocky

1045
01:08:43,360 --> 01:08:44,360
at all.

1046
01:08:44,360 --> 01:08:45,360
I don't think they did.

1047
01:08:45,360 --> 01:08:46,360
I don't think I ever.

1048
01:08:46,360 --> 01:08:48,760
They mentioned him a couple of times.

1049
01:08:48,760 --> 01:08:49,760
Did?

1050
01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:50,800
Yeah, or referenced him.

1051
01:08:50,800 --> 01:08:54,520
They said his name once and I think they made a reference to him later.

1052
01:08:54,520 --> 01:09:00,880
OK, but not like like the fact, like I said, like to me, he wasn't missed.

1053
01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:05,040
Like I'm glad that and like I said, it's nothing against Sylvester Stallone.

1054
01:09:05,040 --> 01:09:12,480
But the fact that this was truly Adonis's story, him having to deal with his past, just

1055
01:09:12,480 --> 01:09:17,560
everything that was thrown at him this time around was done so well and it was such a

1056
01:09:17,560 --> 01:09:20,640
great story.

1057
01:09:20,640 --> 01:09:25,040
So I think I'm sitting at like a I'm going 93.

1058
01:09:25,040 --> 01:09:26,040
Nice.

1059
01:09:26,040 --> 01:09:27,040
I was around there too.

1060
01:09:27,040 --> 01:09:29,040
I'm actually sitting at 92.

1061
01:09:29,040 --> 01:09:30,040
OK.

1062
01:09:30,040 --> 01:09:31,040
Oh yeah.

1063
01:09:31,040 --> 01:09:32,040
All right.

1064
01:09:32,040 --> 01:09:34,800
Moving on over to writing.

1065
01:09:34,800 --> 01:09:39,720
Is it just me or when because I got a one when this movie comes out in 4k, I'm buying

1066
01:09:39,720 --> 01:09:40,720
it.

1067
01:09:40,720 --> 01:09:41,720
There's no doubt.

1068
01:09:41,720 --> 01:09:44,280
But I definitely got to make sure that the subtitles are on because whenever they have

1069
01:09:44,280 --> 01:09:47,720
those mouth guards in, I can barely understand a word they're saying.

1070
01:09:47,720 --> 01:09:52,760
Dude, that is the one thing that I missed from the other two because I was able to watch

1071
01:09:52,760 --> 01:09:53,760
them with subtitles.

1072
01:09:53,760 --> 01:09:54,760
Right.

1073
01:09:54,760 --> 01:09:59,600
Whenever they put their mouth guard in, I'm like, God damn it.

1074
01:09:59,600 --> 01:10:02,000
Well, now I'm not going to be able to understand what the hell you're saying.

1075
01:10:02,000 --> 01:10:04,760
I'll try, but it's going to be hard.

1076
01:10:04,760 --> 01:10:05,760
Yeah.

1077
01:10:05,760 --> 01:10:12,560
Like when I'm going to definitely rewatch this with with subtitles, like it got real

1078
01:10:12,560 --> 01:10:14,040
difficult to understand sometimes.

1079
01:10:14,040 --> 01:10:19,480
I'm just like, can you just like take it out for a second?

1080
01:10:19,480 --> 01:10:24,320
I mean, that's not a writing issue.

1081
01:10:24,320 --> 01:10:27,720
No, that's not even an issue with like the movie in general.

1082
01:10:27,720 --> 01:10:29,720
It's just like one of those annoying like, gosh damn it.

1083
01:10:29,720 --> 01:10:31,000
Wish they would have thought this through.

1084
01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:32,000
Yeah.

1085
01:10:32,000 --> 01:10:35,680
But I felt like writing would be like the only part that like wouldn't make sense.

1086
01:10:35,680 --> 01:10:36,680
Yeah.

1087
01:10:36,680 --> 01:10:40,040
I mean, it's not even I have a hard time.

1088
01:10:40,040 --> 01:10:42,280
I just want to bring it up.

1089
01:10:42,280 --> 01:10:43,280
Yeah.

1090
01:10:43,280 --> 01:10:45,560
I mean, I'm completely on board with you.

1091
01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:48,040
It was really difficult to understand sometimes.

1092
01:10:48,040 --> 01:10:53,520
But I mean, honestly, I feel the writing was just as strong as the story.

1093
01:10:53,520 --> 01:10:58,440
It absolutely was like it was incredibly written.

1094
01:10:58,440 --> 01:11:08,160
Like I'm really happy with how they handled the conversations that Damien and Adonis had.

1095
01:11:08,160 --> 01:11:09,160
Seriously.

1096
01:11:09,160 --> 01:11:15,200
I mean, they were done so especially their first interaction together after all those

1097
01:11:15,200 --> 01:11:16,200
years.

1098
01:11:16,200 --> 01:11:17,200
That was done so tastefully.

1099
01:11:17,200 --> 01:11:19,440
Oh my gosh, dude.

1100
01:11:19,440 --> 01:11:26,760
It was it was weird because it's like you could feel that tension when they were just

1101
01:11:26,760 --> 01:11:27,760
kind of sitting there.

1102
01:11:27,760 --> 01:11:30,120
Like you could feel how awkward it was.

1103
01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:31,120
Yeah.

1104
01:11:31,120 --> 01:11:32,240
Oh, yeah.

1105
01:11:32,240 --> 01:11:38,360
And then like, like any time that they talked, like I kind of found myself like just feeling

1106
01:11:38,360 --> 01:11:42,560
really tense until the last conversation that they had.

1107
01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:47,280
And I kind of felt a little bit more at ease.

1108
01:11:47,280 --> 01:11:50,040
I was the same way.

1109
01:11:50,040 --> 01:11:53,520
Like they did so good with that.

1110
01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:59,600
I don't know what the hell it was that they did, but you could just feel it, like feel

1111
01:11:59,600 --> 01:12:01,720
how those conversations were going.

1112
01:12:01,720 --> 01:12:09,000
Like the first like the first one, you could you could feel like it was just an awkward

1113
01:12:09,000 --> 01:12:10,000
tension.

1114
01:12:10,000 --> 01:12:15,520
And then kind of the same deal when they were like eating at his house.

1115
01:12:15,520 --> 01:12:22,320
And then once he'd won the title and was at the beach or whatever, doing his thing, like

1116
01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:28,400
partying it up and kind of exposing himself for like like what he was doing.

1117
01:12:28,400 --> 01:12:34,320
And like you could feel that betrayal from Adonis.

1118
01:12:34,320 --> 01:12:38,040
And you knew just like, oh, man, like something bad is happening.

1119
01:12:38,040 --> 01:12:42,340
And just you could feel just that sunken feeling in your chest.

1120
01:12:42,340 --> 01:12:48,920
And then at the end, when they have that that final heart to heart and that sense that they're

1121
01:12:48,920 --> 01:12:56,080
moving on from each other again, you can feel kind of all that tension just kind of is gone.

1122
01:12:56,080 --> 01:12:58,680
It's just at a total calm.

1123
01:12:58,680 --> 01:13:04,240
Oh, I was so afraid that they weren't going to make amends.

1124
01:13:04,240 --> 01:13:10,160
Once the once the fight was over, I was scared, but I'm glad that that I mean, I'm sure people

1125
01:13:10,160 --> 01:13:11,800
will think, oh, well, that's just so stereotypical.

1126
01:13:11,800 --> 01:13:14,280
Of course, they were going to make amends.

1127
01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:19,400
I don't care if it was considering how much I loved both of these characters.

1128
01:13:19,400 --> 01:13:23,400
I definitely wanted them to leave on right terms.

1129
01:13:23,400 --> 01:13:28,440
I wanted them to make amends, move on from their past.

1130
01:13:28,440 --> 01:13:31,560
I don't know if I would say that they made amends.

1131
01:13:31,560 --> 01:13:37,680
I think they I mean, I think they came to an understanding.

1132
01:13:37,680 --> 01:13:41,260
Like just kind of understanding, like, yeah, we like we were kids.

1133
01:13:41,260 --> 01:13:44,240
We were just young, stupid kids.

1134
01:13:44,240 --> 01:13:45,240
Shit happens.

1135
01:13:45,240 --> 01:13:47,760
Blah, blah, blah.

1136
01:13:47,760 --> 01:13:54,880
But I think when they left, it was more moving on than anything.

1137
01:13:54,880 --> 01:14:00,720
Like I don't think that they like reconciled where they were like back to being friends

1138
01:14:00,720 --> 01:14:01,920
again.

1139
01:14:01,920 --> 01:14:08,680
I think it was very much like this this friendship has run its course.

1140
01:14:08,680 --> 01:14:13,760
And it was kind of like it felt like a final goodbye to Dane.

1141
01:14:13,760 --> 01:14:17,040
Yeah, that's a good point.

1142
01:14:17,040 --> 01:14:22,200
It was just kind of that seldom just like that heartbreak you feel when something like

1143
01:14:22,200 --> 01:14:25,160
that happens, like that loss of a friendship.

1144
01:14:25,160 --> 01:14:26,160
I know.

1145
01:14:26,160 --> 01:14:27,160
It's never fun.

1146
01:14:27,160 --> 01:14:28,160
Sucks.

1147
01:14:28,160 --> 01:14:30,160
I don't recommend it.

1148
01:14:30,160 --> 01:14:31,160
Yeah.

1149
01:14:31,160 --> 01:14:37,360
And like most of them just kind of like slowly fade out or whatever.

1150
01:14:37,360 --> 01:14:39,640
But this one just was ended abruptly.

1151
01:14:39,640 --> 01:14:42,880
So you could definitely see why that hurt was was there.

1152
01:14:42,880 --> 01:14:48,520
And I don't think that was an easy decision or choice for Adonis or Damien to make.

1153
01:14:48,520 --> 01:14:52,680
But it's one of those things it's like they needed to to make it.

1154
01:14:52,680 --> 01:14:54,520
Yeah, that way.

1155
01:14:54,520 --> 01:14:57,680
So I thought that was really well done.

1156
01:14:57,680 --> 01:15:04,200
Like those how if I did if it was a script like I'm I'm I'm crediting the script for

1157
01:15:04,200 --> 01:15:11,000
that for those like conversations because that was just fantastic.

1158
01:15:11,000 --> 01:15:19,840
Well, even the relation, the the conversations between Adonis and Bianca were really fricking

1159
01:15:19,840 --> 01:15:20,840
good.

1160
01:15:20,840 --> 01:15:25,840
Oh, especially when he finally comes clean to her and just finally lets lets all of his

1161
01:15:25,840 --> 01:15:27,840
emotions out.

1162
01:15:27,840 --> 01:15:28,840
Such excellent writing.

1163
01:15:28,840 --> 01:15:30,800
It is so good.

1164
01:15:30,800 --> 01:15:39,560
And then like it was so interesting watching him train Amara, his daughter, like with the

1165
01:15:39,560 --> 01:15:45,560
fighting because he's talking about all these things about like, oh, it's not about power

1166
01:15:45,560 --> 01:15:48,720
speed, it's about control.

1167
01:15:48,720 --> 01:16:00,360
And when he's like having that internal struggle of controlling his emotions, it was it was

1168
01:16:00,360 --> 01:16:02,160
so well crafted.

1169
01:16:02,160 --> 01:16:04,880
This movie was done so good.

1170
01:16:04,880 --> 01:16:11,080
And I like that this team is freaking off the hook.

1171
01:16:11,080 --> 01:16:13,880
So the the writing credits for this.

1172
01:16:13,880 --> 01:16:18,760
So Ryan Coogler wrote the story and then the screen was so good.

1173
01:16:18,760 --> 01:16:19,760
Yeah.

1174
01:16:19,760 --> 01:16:25,880
And then it looks like maybe his brother and someone else, Zach Bailen.

1175
01:16:25,880 --> 01:16:27,440
What did he work on?

1176
01:16:27,440 --> 01:16:34,280
Oh, he's so his only credits are Creed three and Richard.

1177
01:16:34,280 --> 01:16:37,040
I've never heard of Richard or King Richard.

1178
01:16:37,040 --> 01:16:38,440
Oh, King Richard.

1179
01:16:38,440 --> 01:16:39,440
Yeah, sorry.

1180
01:16:39,440 --> 01:16:40,440
In Coogler.

1181
01:16:40,440 --> 01:16:41,440
He's OK.

1182
01:16:41,440 --> 01:16:48,680
So he wrote the screenplay for Space Jam, a new legacy.

1183
01:16:48,680 --> 01:16:54,240
He definitely was able to come back from that with this.

1184
01:16:54,240 --> 01:16:57,240
He did a lot better with this.

1185
01:16:57,240 --> 01:17:08,360
So I mean, I think I think they did an amazing job with the with the script.

1186
01:17:08,360 --> 01:17:13,560
So I mean, I'm right with you, given it basically the same as writing.

1187
01:17:13,560 --> 01:17:15,080
Yeah.

1188
01:17:15,080 --> 01:17:20,320
Like any issues that I had were just kind of like normal conversation stuff.

1189
01:17:20,320 --> 01:17:22,400
And that's not really a big gripe.

1190
01:17:22,400 --> 01:17:23,400
Yeah.

1191
01:17:23,400 --> 01:17:24,400
All right.

1192
01:17:24,400 --> 01:17:33,920
So moving on over to acting, we have Michael B. Jordan, who played Adonis Creed, Tess Thompson,

1193
01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:42,400
who played Bianca Creed, Jonathan Majors, who plays Damian Anderson, Wood Harris, who

1194
01:17:42,400 --> 01:17:52,200
plays Tony Little Duke Burton, Felicia Rashad, who plays Mary Ann Creed, and then Myla Davis

1195
01:17:52,200 --> 01:17:56,680
Kent, who plays Amara Creed.

1196
01:17:56,680 --> 01:18:03,680
Very interested to see how our top threes might differ, because number three for me

1197
01:18:03,680 --> 01:18:06,080
is Tessa Thompson.

1198
01:18:06,080 --> 01:18:07,080
Loved her.

1199
01:18:07,080 --> 01:18:08,800
I loved her in all three of these movies.

1200
01:18:08,800 --> 01:18:10,600
I mean, it's Tessa Thompson.

1201
01:18:10,600 --> 01:18:11,600
She's a fantastic actress.

1202
01:18:11,600 --> 01:18:14,600
She's the freaking heart of this movie.

1203
01:18:14,600 --> 01:18:16,800
Yeah, she really is.

1204
01:18:16,800 --> 01:18:17,800
All three of them.

1205
01:18:17,800 --> 01:18:19,000
Dude, yeah, straight up.

1206
01:18:19,000 --> 01:18:22,320
I felt she had a lot more to do in this one, too, than the second one.

1207
01:18:22,320 --> 01:18:25,120
And they even dove more into her character.

1208
01:18:25,120 --> 01:18:26,120
I loved her.

1209
01:18:26,120 --> 01:18:27,640
Dude, freaking get rid of Rocky.

1210
01:18:27,640 --> 01:18:28,640
Yeah.

1211
01:18:28,640 --> 01:18:31,720
I'm sorry, we want to focus on the new characters.

1212
01:18:31,720 --> 01:18:32,720
Yeah.

1213
01:18:32,720 --> 01:18:36,120
I mean, get rid of him for the second.

1214
01:18:36,120 --> 01:18:37,640
We saw him in the first.

1215
01:18:37,640 --> 01:18:38,640
We're done.

1216
01:18:38,640 --> 01:18:40,040
That's all we need.

1217
01:18:40,040 --> 01:18:43,040
We just, yeah.

1218
01:18:43,040 --> 01:18:49,520
No, just like how her dealing with her music career, how she had to take a step back because

1219
01:18:49,520 --> 01:18:53,480
if she kept going, it would have made her hearing even worse and she could have lost

1220
01:18:53,480 --> 01:18:54,480
it sooner.

1221
01:18:54,480 --> 01:18:58,720
Just, yeah, she did such a great job in this one.

1222
01:18:58,720 --> 01:19:02,640
Like I said, as she did in the first two.

1223
01:19:02,640 --> 01:19:06,100
I love her in this role.

1224
01:19:06,100 --> 01:19:10,360
Number two, I'm going to give to Michael B. Jordan.

1225
01:19:10,360 --> 01:19:12,540
Loved him as Adonis Creed.

1226
01:19:12,540 --> 01:19:13,540
I always do.

1227
01:19:13,540 --> 01:19:14,540
Bold.

1228
01:19:14,540 --> 01:19:15,540
I know it is.

1229
01:19:15,540 --> 01:19:18,440
Bold freaking statement, bro.

1230
01:19:18,440 --> 01:19:19,440
I know it is.

1231
01:19:19,440 --> 01:19:21,960
I know it is.

1232
01:19:21,960 --> 01:19:24,880
Loved him once again as Adonis Creed.

1233
01:19:24,880 --> 01:19:27,480
Fantastic performance.

1234
01:19:27,480 --> 01:19:32,480
Just the emotion that he's able to put into this character is truly incredible.

1235
01:19:32,480 --> 01:19:39,000
I feel this is the best character that he's played in his career.

1236
01:19:39,000 --> 01:19:40,360
Second would probably be.

1237
01:19:40,360 --> 01:19:42,320
That's another bold statement.

1238
01:19:42,320 --> 01:19:50,200
In my opinion, I think this is the best character he's played in his career.

1239
01:19:50,200 --> 01:19:53,560
This is my first introduction to the Rocky franchise.

1240
01:19:53,560 --> 01:19:57,960
I feel that's saying a lot considering, as you can see, I'm not that huge into boxing.

1241
01:19:57,960 --> 01:20:01,800
Honestly, if it weren't for Caleb saying he wanted to break this one down, probably

1242
01:20:01,800 --> 01:20:06,040
never would have checked this one out or checked out any of the Creed movies, but I'm glad

1243
01:20:06,040 --> 01:20:11,080
I did because Michael B. Jordan, fantastic in this movie.

1244
01:20:11,080 --> 01:20:12,880
Such an incredible performance.

1245
01:20:12,880 --> 01:20:17,500
But I got to give number one to Jonathan Majors.

1246
01:20:17,500 --> 01:20:22,000
This man is just such an incredible actor.

1247
01:20:22,000 --> 01:20:23,000
What was it?

1248
01:20:23,000 --> 01:20:26,520
Ant-Man and the Lost Quantumania was the first time I had ever seen this guy act.

1249
01:20:26,520 --> 01:20:29,520
Well, wait, no, I'm sorry.

1250
01:20:29,520 --> 01:20:35,600
No, Loki, season one, was the first time and absolutely fell in love with the guy.

1251
01:20:35,600 --> 01:20:37,080
Amazing actor.

1252
01:20:37,080 --> 01:20:42,760
In this movie, he was even better than anything I've ever seen him in.

1253
01:20:42,760 --> 01:20:48,480
The heart that he gave to this performance, you could just tell that he was a broken man

1254
01:20:48,480 --> 01:20:54,360
for what he went through being 18 years in jail, his friend turning his back on him.

1255
01:20:54,360 --> 01:21:01,400
This guy went through the freaking wringer and just all of the emotion that Jonathan

1256
01:21:01,400 --> 01:21:03,000
is able to put into this character.

1257
01:21:03,000 --> 01:21:08,520
It's so weird saying because there's not a lot of people named Jonathan, I feel.

1258
01:21:08,520 --> 01:21:12,080
So it's weird saying my own name for it.

1259
01:21:12,080 --> 01:21:13,080
That is also an actor's name.

1260
01:21:13,080 --> 01:21:16,920
I know that's weird, but it just feels weird.

1261
01:21:16,920 --> 01:21:19,040
Does he spell it like you do too?

1262
01:21:19,040 --> 01:21:21,480
No, he spells it the boring way.

1263
01:21:21,480 --> 01:21:23,800
He spells it J-O-N.

1264
01:21:23,800 --> 01:21:26,080
I spell it the cool way.

1265
01:21:26,080 --> 01:21:31,360
Or I'm sure I've told you why my mom spelled it J-O-H-N, right?

1266
01:21:31,360 --> 01:21:33,520
I don't think you have.

1267
01:21:33,520 --> 01:21:35,520
Okay, so really quick story.

1268
01:21:35,520 --> 01:21:36,800
This is like side tangent.

1269
01:21:36,800 --> 01:21:37,800
Really, really quick.

1270
01:21:37,800 --> 01:21:43,840
So originally, my mom wanted to name me Christopher because Christopher and Christina and my grandma

1271
01:21:43,840 --> 01:21:46,520
was just like, no, no, no, we're not going to do that.

1272
01:21:46,520 --> 01:21:47,520
She recommended David.

1273
01:21:47,520 --> 01:21:50,880
She's like, no, no, no, we don't need another David in the family.

1274
01:21:50,880 --> 01:21:53,120
And so my mom's like, okay, what about Jonathan?

1275
01:21:53,120 --> 01:21:55,400
She's like, okay, I like that name.

1276
01:21:55,400 --> 01:22:03,960
So to piss my grandma off, my mom spelled it J-O-H-N instead of J-O-M.

1277
01:22:03,960 --> 01:22:07,800
That's why my name is spelled differently than others spelled Jonathan.

1278
01:22:07,800 --> 01:22:11,800
You gotta love those petty things people do.

1279
01:22:11,800 --> 01:22:15,680
Yeah, I think it's a freaking hilarious story.

1280
01:22:15,680 --> 01:22:18,680
But anyway, getting back to this Jonathan.

1281
01:22:18,680 --> 01:22:23,200
Yeah, just such an incredible performance.

1282
01:22:23,200 --> 01:22:29,040
I know I wasn't supposed to be the one rooting for him, but I actually wanted him to win

1283
01:22:29,040 --> 01:22:30,040
over Adonis.

1284
01:22:30,040 --> 01:22:35,680
Just because, I don't know, I love him as an actor.

1285
01:22:35,680 --> 01:22:37,560
I loved his character in this.

1286
01:22:37,560 --> 01:22:38,720
He was just so good.

1287
01:22:38,720 --> 01:22:40,120
I root for the bad guy.

1288
01:22:40,120 --> 01:22:43,620
And he's not a bad guy, but he's the opponent.

1289
01:22:43,620 --> 01:22:48,200
But I always root for the bad guy, the so-called one you're supposed to be against.

1290
01:22:48,200 --> 01:22:50,280
I'm always rooting for him.

1291
01:22:50,280 --> 01:22:51,280
I don't know what it is.

1292
01:22:51,280 --> 01:22:54,520
I think maybe you're hoping for a redemption.

1293
01:22:54,520 --> 01:22:57,160
Yeah, okay, there we go.

1294
01:22:57,160 --> 01:23:00,240
That's a good way to look at it.

1295
01:23:00,240 --> 01:23:02,800
But yeah, just top-notch performance.

1296
01:23:02,800 --> 01:23:09,040
Like I said, Michael B. Jordan was incredible, but Jonathan Majors, just a little bit better

1297
01:23:09,040 --> 01:23:10,920
of a performance.

1298
01:23:10,920 --> 01:23:14,000
It's barely a step up.

1299
01:23:14,000 --> 01:23:15,200
They're neck and neck.

1300
01:23:15,200 --> 01:23:17,760
But I gotta give Jonathan Majors number one.

1301
01:23:17,760 --> 01:23:18,760
Amazing.

1302
01:23:18,760 --> 01:23:19,760
Oh boy.

1303
01:23:19,760 --> 01:23:25,480
All right, I'm going to agree with your number three being Tess Thompson.

1304
01:23:25,480 --> 01:23:30,200
I absolutely agree with you on everything you said.

1305
01:23:30,200 --> 01:23:35,000
She's just an incredible actress.

1306
01:23:35,000 --> 01:23:38,800
Definitely one of the best of our current time.

1307
01:23:38,800 --> 01:23:44,880
I freaking love her.

1308
01:23:44,880 --> 01:23:47,080
I have to give number two to Jonathan Majors.

1309
01:23:47,080 --> 01:23:48,080
It's close.

1310
01:23:48,080 --> 01:23:49,280
It is, seriously.

1311
01:23:49,280 --> 01:23:51,600
It could be a coin flip.

1312
01:23:51,600 --> 01:23:57,280
I don't disagree with a single thing that you said about either Michael B. Jordan or

1313
01:23:57,280 --> 01:23:58,280
Jonathan Majors.

1314
01:23:58,280 --> 01:24:05,400
They are both incredible powerhouses of acting.

1315
01:24:05,400 --> 01:24:08,520
But I'm giving number two to Jonathan Majors.

1316
01:24:08,520 --> 01:24:19,880
He does an amazing job at playing just this broken and just struggling man that just had

1317
01:24:19,880 --> 01:24:24,080
his hopes and dreams just kind of ripped from him.

1318
01:24:24,080 --> 01:24:34,880
I think he portrayed that hurt so well in every aspect of his performance.

1319
01:24:34,880 --> 01:24:42,960
His audio, or not his audio, just his speech and his physicality when he was fighting was

1320
01:24:42,960 --> 01:24:47,840
just, his physicality spoke for itself.

1321
01:24:47,840 --> 01:24:51,720
He did so well.

1322
01:24:51,720 --> 01:24:54,440
But I'm giving Michael B. Jordan number one.

1323
01:24:54,440 --> 01:25:06,920
I think he did exactly what Jonathan Majors did, kind of portrayed how someone who has

1324
01:25:06,920 --> 01:25:13,280
past traumas come up, how that person would react.

1325
01:25:13,280 --> 01:25:16,440
It was very realistic in my eyes.

1326
01:25:16,440 --> 01:25:22,880
But I think what put him just maybe a hair above Jonathan Majors was his more emotional

1327
01:25:22,880 --> 01:25:25,640
scenes.

1328
01:25:25,640 --> 01:25:34,240
Like one where he's breaking down when his mother passes away or when he's in the ring

1329
01:25:34,240 --> 01:25:43,320
facing off against Victor Drago and just kind of having an emotional breakdown and then

1330
01:25:43,320 --> 01:25:49,920
just is able to come back from that with just a new resolve.

1331
01:25:49,920 --> 01:25:52,800
He pulled that off so well.

1332
01:25:52,800 --> 01:26:00,800
So again, these three are just powerhouses of acting ability.

1333
01:26:00,800 --> 01:26:02,920
Yes, they are.

1334
01:26:02,920 --> 01:26:07,200
So the fact that they've all been in a Marvel movie is freaking hilarious.

1335
01:26:07,200 --> 01:26:08,200
They're all in the MCU.

1336
01:26:08,200 --> 01:26:10,520
That makes me so happy.

1337
01:26:10,520 --> 01:26:18,600
Dude, it kind of makes me think of how freaking, like it's who you know when it comes to freaking

1338
01:26:18,600 --> 01:26:21,400
acting.

1339
01:26:21,400 --> 01:26:24,440
That's true.

1340
01:26:24,440 --> 01:26:33,600
And I think it's like Ryan Coogler has worked with Michael B. Jordan on damn near everything.

1341
01:26:33,600 --> 01:26:41,320
Dude, I remember when, you know, before I stopped pursuing a digital cinema degree,

1342
01:26:41,320 --> 01:26:44,600
one of the biggest things that they said, I think in like my first class was that if

1343
01:26:44,600 --> 01:26:51,240
you do not have your foot in the door in Hollywood or in the movie industry by the time that

1344
01:26:51,240 --> 01:26:59,200
you graduate, you literally, you could just throw your degree away because it's going

1345
01:26:59,200 --> 01:27:02,480
to be so hard for you to get in after you graduate.

1346
01:27:02,480 --> 01:27:07,200
You have to have your foot in the door by the time that you get that diploma.

1347
01:27:07,200 --> 01:27:08,200
That's messed up.

1348
01:27:08,200 --> 01:27:09,200
Yeah.

1349
01:27:09,200 --> 01:27:12,200
What can you do?

1350
01:27:12,200 --> 01:27:17,720
But yeah, I mean, Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan have worked on all of Ryan Coogler's

1351
01:27:17,720 --> 01:27:18,720
projects.

1352
01:27:18,720 --> 01:27:30,680
Like, other than the shorts, like if you look at Ryan Coogler's directing IMDB, he has three

1353
01:27:30,680 --> 01:27:42,080
shorts and then it's Fruitvale Station, which features Michael B. Jordan, same as Creed,

1354
01:27:42,080 --> 01:27:47,000
same as Black Panther and same as Black Panther Wakanda Forever.

1355
01:27:47,000 --> 01:27:50,280
Michael B. Jordan is in every single one of those movies.

1356
01:27:50,280 --> 01:27:52,080
I love it.

1357
01:27:52,080 --> 01:27:58,920
And then he's in a lot of freaking movies that he's produced too.

1358
01:27:58,920 --> 01:28:04,600
Like he's in Creed 2, he's in Space Jam, A New Legacy, he's in Creed 3.

1359
01:28:04,600 --> 01:28:07,640
Oh yeah, I forgot the whole freaking Michael Jordan joke.

1360
01:28:07,640 --> 01:28:09,120
I remember that.

1361
01:28:09,120 --> 01:28:10,120
Yeah.

1362
01:28:10,120 --> 01:28:17,520
I mean, he's in a lot of shit, but yeah, definitely a who you know situation here.

1363
01:28:17,520 --> 01:28:23,680
I'm not saying it's bad, like I'm not like discounting his.

1364
01:28:23,680 --> 01:28:25,360
Yeah they're an amazing team.

1365
01:28:25,360 --> 01:28:30,640
Like anything that Michael B. Jordan and Ryan Coogler work on together, I am absolutely

1366
01:28:30,640 --> 01:28:31,640
watching.

1367
01:28:31,640 --> 01:28:33,200
Yeah, sign me up.

1368
01:28:33,200 --> 01:28:42,440
I didn't really have an interest in watching Fruitvale Station until I started realizing

1369
01:28:42,440 --> 01:28:45,840
that like how well these two work together.

1370
01:28:45,840 --> 01:28:52,840
So definitely, definitely given acting like a really high score.

1371
01:28:52,840 --> 01:28:56,600
Because this was just powerful.

1372
01:28:56,600 --> 01:28:58,080
How high though?

1373
01:28:58,080 --> 01:29:03,120
Honestly, I think I'm like 90, 95.

1374
01:29:03,120 --> 01:29:04,120
That's what I was thinking too.

1375
01:29:04,120 --> 01:29:09,400
What are you thinking about character development?

1376
01:29:09,400 --> 01:29:11,400
This is very, very solid.

1377
01:29:11,400 --> 01:29:14,280
I'm assuming we're doing it on Adonis, right?

1378
01:29:14,280 --> 01:29:15,280
Yeah, absolutely.

1379
01:29:15,280 --> 01:29:16,280
Okay.

1380
01:29:16,280 --> 01:29:17,280
Okay.

1381
01:29:17,280 --> 01:29:18,480
I couldn't agree more with you.

1382
01:29:18,480 --> 01:29:21,040
Like they did so good.

1383
01:29:21,040 --> 01:29:25,360
Even like how we pointed out, how Cale pointed out that even if you haven't seen the first

1384
01:29:25,360 --> 01:29:29,360
two Creed, you can still follow along with Adonis' story.

1385
01:29:29,360 --> 01:29:35,920
And I think that's what I appreciate so much about this movie is that it gives you like

1386
01:29:35,920 --> 01:29:39,440
what you need to know that is what happened in the past.

1387
01:29:39,440 --> 01:29:45,840
But the emotional journey that Adonis goes on in this movie from dealing with him having

1388
01:29:45,840 --> 01:29:53,600
to come back from retiring to dealing with the loss of his mom, just shit is just thrown

1389
01:29:53,600 --> 01:29:55,080
at him left to right.

1390
01:29:55,080 --> 01:29:57,120
It's freaking ridiculous.

1391
01:29:57,120 --> 01:30:02,480
And the fact that he's able to work through it all and get to the point that he is when

1392
01:30:02,480 --> 01:30:12,920
we get to the end credits is just truly amazing of how strong of a character he is.

1393
01:30:12,920 --> 01:30:17,960
And I've loved watching his journey throughout these three movies and especially in this

1394
01:30:17,960 --> 01:30:18,960
one.

1395
01:30:18,960 --> 01:30:22,740
This one is my favorite when it comes to his character development.

1396
01:30:22,740 --> 01:30:29,320
So yeah, I'm really I'm pretty freaking high for character development.

1397
01:30:29,320 --> 01:30:30,960
I don't know about you.

1398
01:30:30,960 --> 01:30:34,640
I don't blame you on the slightest there.

1399
01:30:34,640 --> 01:30:41,840
Like they they did exactly what they needed to do for the second.

1400
01:30:41,840 --> 01:30:49,680
Like where with the first we get that introduction and just kind of ride that train of who Adonis

1401
01:30:49,680 --> 01:31:00,960
is this breaks down who he is to his core and then just builds off of that like so well.

1402
01:31:00,960 --> 01:31:09,920
Like it breaks it like literally just breaks it down where he's living this super successful

1403
01:31:09,920 --> 01:31:13,720
life, super happy life with his family.

1404
01:31:13,720 --> 01:31:24,000
And something comes into his life that just throws a big old wrench in there and having

1405
01:31:24,000 --> 01:31:33,320
to see him deal with that on top of his past traumas and everything else in between.

1406
01:31:33,320 --> 01:31:42,600
And like you see him struggle with like with everything and he uses boxing to build himself

1407
01:31:42,600 --> 01:31:51,600
back up, like just to kind of tear him down, just like fix what needs to be broken or or

1408
01:31:51,600 --> 01:32:00,400
what fix what what is broken inside of him, deal with that and come out victorious at

1409
01:32:00,400 --> 01:32:01,400
the other side.

1410
01:32:01,400 --> 01:32:07,880
Like it's such a good story, at least like based off character.

1411
01:32:07,880 --> 01:32:13,720
And this is this is one if they were to announce that no more Creed movies were going to be

1412
01:32:13,720 --> 01:32:16,880
made, I'm bummed.

1413
01:32:16,880 --> 01:32:20,400
I'd be bummed, but completely understand.

1414
01:32:20,400 --> 01:32:22,280
Oh, don't be bummed.

1415
01:32:22,280 --> 01:32:25,920
Michael B. Jordan already announced that Creed 4 is definitely happening.

1416
01:32:25,920 --> 01:32:26,920
Is it happening?

1417
01:32:26,920 --> 01:32:27,920
Mm hmm.

1418
01:32:27,920 --> 01:32:31,600
Yeah, he announced last month.

1419
01:32:31,600 --> 01:32:33,880
This is going to be an interesting one then.

1420
01:32:33,880 --> 01:32:37,800
Yeah, actually.

1421
01:32:37,800 --> 01:32:40,240
Okay, I will say this.

1422
01:32:40,240 --> 01:32:47,400
There is they open the door for a story to be told there.

1423
01:32:47,400 --> 01:32:52,320
And if they go this route, I'm going to be beyond thrilled.

1424
01:32:52,320 --> 01:33:01,760
I'm hoping that they do a time jump and show Adonis training Amara.

1425
01:33:01,760 --> 01:33:05,000
That is the only story that I will accept.

1426
01:33:05,000 --> 01:33:07,040
Fair.

1427
01:33:07,040 --> 01:33:09,920
I mean, same here.

1428
01:33:09,920 --> 01:33:10,920
Same here.

1429
01:33:10,920 --> 01:33:11,920
That.

1430
01:33:11,920 --> 01:33:16,680
Yeah, that is the only story that I am prepared to see.

1431
01:33:16,680 --> 01:33:21,960
If they do not do that, I'm going to be real pissed.

1432
01:33:21,960 --> 01:33:22,960
Fair enough.

1433
01:33:22,960 --> 01:33:25,960
Fair enough.

1434
01:33:25,960 --> 01:33:30,440
Oh, man.

1435
01:33:30,440 --> 01:33:34,560
So so so like I said, there is room.

1436
01:33:34,560 --> 01:33:41,120
I'm not going to let the fact that there's a fourth one to distract me, but.

1437
01:33:41,120 --> 01:33:44,520
They did a really good job.

1438
01:33:44,520 --> 01:33:47,080
Kind of capping off Adonis's story.

1439
01:33:47,080 --> 01:33:49,640
I think Adonis's story is done.

1440
01:33:49,640 --> 01:33:51,440
Agreed.

1441
01:33:51,440 --> 01:33:58,160
I think maybe like I said, with with a fourth, I think there is some room, but I don't think

1442
01:33:58,160 --> 01:33:59,560
he should be the focus.

1443
01:33:59,560 --> 01:34:00,560
Yeah.

1444
01:34:00,560 --> 01:34:08,360
I think it needs to be his daughter and training her and all the shit that that struggles that

1445
01:34:08,360 --> 01:34:11,440
he can deal with there.

1446
01:34:11,440 --> 01:34:14,840
So I I agreed.

1447
01:34:14,840 --> 01:34:15,840
I had to do it.

1448
01:34:15,840 --> 01:34:19,760
I swear to you, dude.

1449
01:34:19,760 --> 01:34:20,760
I had to do it at least once.

1450
01:34:20,760 --> 01:34:24,240
I will drop out of this immediately.

1451
01:34:24,240 --> 01:34:28,640
Oh, shit.

1452
01:34:28,640 --> 01:34:34,080
So I mean, character development wise, I think they did a fantastic job.

1453
01:34:34,080 --> 01:34:35,440
They really did.

1454
01:34:35,440 --> 01:34:39,760
It's definitely on like higher and in my book.

1455
01:34:39,760 --> 01:34:41,520
Where are you sitting?

1456
01:34:41,520 --> 01:34:47,280
I would say like I'm a tad below acting.

1457
01:34:47,280 --> 01:34:49,280
So I think I might go in 94.

1458
01:34:49,280 --> 01:34:52,800
I think I might be with you there.

1459
01:34:52,800 --> 01:34:54,760
I think I'm sitting at like 93.

1460
01:34:54,760 --> 01:34:55,760
All right.

1461
01:34:55,760 --> 01:35:03,760
Next up, we got effects, which for this, this wasn't very special effects heavy at all.

1462
01:35:03,760 --> 01:35:10,000
I don't think I mean, this is just more stunt work and and whatnot.

1463
01:35:10,000 --> 01:35:15,560
I will say and I think it's like in all three, I appreciate that they use the Phantom cameras

1464
01:35:15,560 --> 01:35:22,400
in this movie when it comes to someone getting punched in the face like hardcore because

1465
01:35:22,400 --> 01:35:26,040
I feel I'm pretty sure it's only with the Phantom camera that you can actually like

1466
01:35:26,040 --> 01:35:31,560
literally see the skin like come off of someone's face.

1467
01:35:31,560 --> 01:35:35,360
And it's just so perfect for a box for like any boxing movie.

1468
01:35:35,360 --> 01:35:39,880
So I love that they're I'm assuming you're using Phantom cameras for that because it

1469
01:35:39,880 --> 01:35:47,320
just adds so much more brutality to how messed up boxing can be.

1470
01:35:47,320 --> 01:35:49,680
It's freaking insane.

1471
01:35:49,680 --> 01:35:51,160
No kidding there.

1472
01:35:51,160 --> 01:35:56,040
Like, dude, that freaking shot where they both were just wrecked each other across the

1473
01:35:56,040 --> 01:35:57,240
face.

1474
01:35:57,240 --> 01:35:59,800
That was just picture perfect.

1475
01:35:59,800 --> 01:36:00,800
Right.

1476
01:36:00,800 --> 01:36:03,000
Oh, so good.

1477
01:36:03,000 --> 01:36:04,360
But also, ow.

1478
01:36:04,360 --> 01:36:08,000
Yeah, boxing looks like it sucks.

1479
01:36:08,000 --> 01:36:13,760
Dude, especially whenever like someone goes for like the frickin ribs and my oh, yeah,

1480
01:36:13,760 --> 01:36:17,120
that's one of the biggest reasons why I would never do that shit.

1481
01:36:17,120 --> 01:36:18,120
F that.

1482
01:36:18,120 --> 01:36:19,120
Yeah, dude, I.

1483
01:36:19,120 --> 01:36:23,760
I feel like I talk a big game.

1484
01:36:23,760 --> 01:36:28,080
I don't know if I could handle getting punched in the in the gut.

1485
01:36:28,080 --> 01:36:29,080
Right.

1486
01:36:29,080 --> 01:36:31,800
Well, actually, I think I could take body shots pretty well.

1487
01:36:31,800 --> 01:36:35,520
I don't know if I could take a shot to the head very well.

1488
01:36:35,520 --> 01:36:36,520
All right.

1489
01:36:36,520 --> 01:36:39,920
We're going to test this when I come out next.

1490
01:36:39,920 --> 01:36:42,520
We're going to we're going to have an all bros boxing match.

1491
01:36:42,520 --> 01:36:43,520
We're going to film it.

1492
01:36:43,520 --> 01:36:44,520
It's going to be awesome.

1493
01:36:44,520 --> 01:36:47,600
So, dude, not even attempt like that is something.

1494
01:36:47,600 --> 01:36:52,640
Let's say that that's something we're going to do.

1495
01:36:52,640 --> 01:36:54,360
We both know that's a lie.

1496
01:36:54,360 --> 01:36:56,240
Do not lie to our audience members.

1497
01:36:56,240 --> 01:36:58,240
OK, I'm sorry.

1498
01:36:58,240 --> 01:37:00,920
Frickin asshole.

1499
01:37:00,920 --> 01:37:06,320
But I already I I would even put my money on Caleb because I know Caleb could kick

1500
01:37:06,320 --> 01:37:07,320
my ass.

1501
01:37:07,320 --> 01:37:09,320
So I wouldn't.

1502
01:37:09,320 --> 01:37:14,640
Dude, I've never been in a fight in my life.

1503
01:37:14,640 --> 01:37:16,040
I'll give you that then.

1504
01:37:16,040 --> 01:37:17,040
OK, see?

1505
01:37:17,040 --> 01:37:18,040
Yeah.

1506
01:37:18,040 --> 01:37:23,000
So I think you got this in the bag.

1507
01:37:23,000 --> 01:37:24,000
Fair.

1508
01:37:24,000 --> 01:37:30,640
I'll give you that then.

1509
01:37:30,640 --> 01:37:32,720
So what do you think it like effects wise?

1510
01:37:32,720 --> 01:37:35,000
Because I mean, this movie is just killer.

1511
01:37:35,000 --> 01:37:37,360
Like the action.

1512
01:37:37,360 --> 01:37:39,160
It's so cool.

1513
01:37:39,160 --> 01:37:41,640
The stunt work was amazing.

1514
01:37:41,640 --> 01:37:47,480
It was the physicality that both Michael B. Jordan and Jonathan Majors were able to

1515
01:37:47,480 --> 01:37:48,480
portray.

1516
01:37:48,480 --> 01:37:51,720
Like their hits felt like.

1517
01:37:51,720 --> 01:37:53,720
Like felt powerful.

1518
01:37:53,720 --> 01:38:00,920
Like every hit that landed was just felt like, oh, damn.

1519
01:38:00,920 --> 01:38:05,200
So I'm really high with this one, too.

1520
01:38:05,200 --> 01:38:08,240
You know, I think I'm going to be the same as writing.

1521
01:38:08,240 --> 01:38:09,800
We go 92.

1522
01:38:09,800 --> 01:38:11,200
I think I'm a tad lower.

1523
01:38:11,200 --> 01:38:14,720
I think I'm sitting in like a 90 with this one.

1524
01:38:14,720 --> 01:38:15,720
Fair enough.

1525
01:38:15,720 --> 01:38:17,200
All right.

1526
01:38:17,200 --> 01:38:19,560
Next up, we got music.

1527
01:38:19,560 --> 01:38:21,680
I think it's a killer soundtrack.

1528
01:38:21,680 --> 01:38:25,080
The soundtrack was really good.

1529
01:38:25,080 --> 01:38:31,080
I don't think it's I have a hard time thinking it's in the nine or ten range.

1530
01:38:31,080 --> 01:38:33,960
Oh, yeah, I'm at an eight.

1531
01:38:33,960 --> 01:38:35,640
That's exactly where I'm at, too.

1532
01:38:35,640 --> 01:38:41,440
It was it enhanced the scenes significantly.

1533
01:38:41,440 --> 01:38:42,440
Yeah.

1534
01:38:42,440 --> 01:38:50,160
And like, I'm super impressed with everything that they pulled off with the music.

1535
01:38:50,160 --> 01:38:54,840
It's just I think he was just missing some like bangers.

1536
01:38:54,840 --> 01:38:56,680
That's fair.

1537
01:38:56,680 --> 01:39:04,000
And can I say I am really glad that they didn't throw in the Rocky theme song like they did

1538
01:39:04,000 --> 01:39:07,600
in the two I was to you.

1539
01:39:07,600 --> 01:39:11,640
I don't think they set out to do this, but you can definitely tell that they try to separate

1540
01:39:11,640 --> 01:39:17,120
this one from the first two and showcasing that, hey, we don't always have to associate

1541
01:39:17,120 --> 01:39:20,680
ourselves with the Rocky franchise, even though this is called Creed.

1542
01:39:20,680 --> 01:39:25,000
It doesn't always have to be linked back to Rocky.

1543
01:39:25,000 --> 01:39:26,000
And I loved that.

1544
01:39:26,000 --> 01:39:27,000
Yeah, exactly.

1545
01:39:27,000 --> 01:39:35,240
Like I said, that was my issue with like the that was a big issue that I had with the first

1546
01:39:35,240 --> 01:39:36,240
two.

1547
01:39:36,240 --> 01:39:40,520
I'm just like, I don't know if you should have been playing Rocky or like the theme

1548
01:39:40,520 --> 01:39:42,020
song of Rocky.

1549
01:39:42,020 --> 01:39:46,580
It's just the fact that they wouldn't even play the full thing.

1550
01:39:46,580 --> 01:39:47,580
That irritated me.

1551
01:39:47,580 --> 01:39:49,400
So it's like, play the whole damn thing.

1552
01:39:49,400 --> 01:39:51,400
Come on, please.

1553
01:39:51,400 --> 01:39:54,560
So eight is well deserved.

1554
01:39:54,560 --> 01:39:57,880
I think honestly, if they would have thrown in the theme song, I probably would have bumped

1555
01:39:57,880 --> 01:39:58,880
it down to a seven.

1556
01:39:58,880 --> 01:39:59,880
You know what?

1557
01:39:59,880 --> 01:40:00,880
I'll agree with that.

1558
01:40:00,880 --> 01:40:01,880
I'll agree.

1559
01:40:01,880 --> 01:40:02,880
Yeah.

1560
01:40:02,880 --> 01:40:03,880
All right.

1561
01:40:03,880 --> 01:40:04,880
Costumes.

1562
01:40:04,880 --> 01:40:13,120
I mean, they're they're really the way that I'm like grading the costumes is like how

1563
01:40:13,120 --> 01:40:17,000
like like their shorts, I guess, looks like the design.

1564
01:40:17,000 --> 01:40:22,440
That's like one of my biggest things was the design of each of their like shorts, which

1565
01:40:22,440 --> 01:40:27,040
fricking looked badass, especially I liked how Damien's actually had like a fricking

1566
01:40:27,040 --> 01:40:29,000
diamond on it.

1567
01:40:29,000 --> 01:40:30,800
That was fricking awesome.

1568
01:40:30,800 --> 01:40:37,920
Especially I also liked how the E for Dame wasn't even like a full E was just three lines.

1569
01:40:37,920 --> 01:40:42,960
But you know, that's that's how you know, like E is done in some iterations.

1570
01:40:42,960 --> 01:40:44,760
So I really like that.

1571
01:40:44,760 --> 01:40:48,560
And then Adonises looked great.

1572
01:40:48,560 --> 01:40:57,320
Yeah, I know, like all even I'm fricking Chavez's especially those looked really, really cool.

1573
01:40:57,320 --> 01:41:02,680
Dude, they did some great shit with these costumes.

1574
01:41:02,680 --> 01:41:09,440
The like for one, fricking Creed shorts were the shit.

1575
01:41:09,440 --> 01:41:17,080
I love that they kept the somewhat like the style like obviously like his shorts were

1576
01:41:17,080 --> 01:41:21,440
all white, but they still had like the stars on stripes on them.

1577
01:41:21,440 --> 01:41:25,520
Yes, I love that detail.

1578
01:41:25,520 --> 01:41:32,760
I loved his his robe when he was walking out to that final match was the shit.

1579
01:41:32,760 --> 01:41:34,200
I want that robe.

1580
01:41:34,200 --> 01:41:36,600
Dude, that's a bitchin' robe.

1581
01:41:36,600 --> 01:41:44,080
No, like it's just very muted colors like all it's just like someone went in and turned

1582
01:41:44,080 --> 01:41:51,440
the brightness on the on the colors like just way down.

1583
01:41:51,440 --> 01:41:54,840
And it looks so cool.

1584
01:41:54,840 --> 01:42:00,240
And like in Damien like he even looked cool like there were there were no misses with

1585
01:42:00,240 --> 01:42:02,680
this damn movie, dude.

1586
01:42:02,680 --> 01:42:05,000
No there was not.

1587
01:42:05,000 --> 01:42:06,360
Like so good.

1588
01:42:06,360 --> 01:42:17,680
I think again, it's just the contrast between the two is was so cool to watch like how Damien's

1589
01:42:17,680 --> 01:42:23,680
wearing just all black shorts and Adonis is fighting in all white.

1590
01:42:23,680 --> 01:42:27,880
Like it's just the symbolism there.

1591
01:42:27,880 --> 01:42:32,340
Everything like there was nothing I didn't like about this.

1592
01:42:32,340 --> 01:42:33,340
These outfits.

1593
01:42:33,340 --> 01:42:34,340
Same here.

1594
01:42:34,340 --> 01:42:39,760
Like and yeah, I'm trying like I'm looking through some pictures right now.

1595
01:42:39,760 --> 01:42:46,840
I can't see a single thing that wasn't perfect.

1596
01:42:46,840 --> 01:42:53,320
Like and even some of like the the clothes that he wore outside of the ring like were

1597
01:42:53,320 --> 01:42:55,120
really cool.

1598
01:42:55,120 --> 01:42:56,620
Yeah.

1599
01:42:56,620 --> 01:43:04,280
And like how I even think like how they changed Jonathan Majors outfits from when he was like

1600
01:43:04,280 --> 01:43:10,040
just sparring where he was wearing real raggedy clothes.

1601
01:43:10,040 --> 01:43:14,040
And then after he became champ, he was wearing like higher end stuff.

1602
01:43:14,040 --> 01:43:17,160
Like I thought those costume changes were fantastic.

1603
01:43:17,160 --> 01:43:20,720
Agreed.

1604
01:43:20,720 --> 01:43:26,080
It does bring up the quest like the only thing that it does bring up the question, though,

1605
01:43:26,080 --> 01:43:30,640
how much money do you get from being the champion?

1606
01:43:30,640 --> 01:43:37,760
Because he went from like frickin on parole to living in a frickin penthouse.

1607
01:43:37,760 --> 01:43:42,920
Yeah, dude, straight up.

1608
01:43:42,920 --> 01:43:47,040
So I'm I'm assuming a pretty good amount.

1609
01:43:47,040 --> 01:43:48,360
That's what I'm thinking.

1610
01:43:48,360 --> 01:43:50,840
Like that was a frickin ridiculous.

1611
01:43:50,840 --> 01:43:57,120
I'm just like, dude, weren't you just living in a place with like a big ass box TV?

1612
01:43:57,120 --> 01:43:58,120
Yeah.

1613
01:43:58,120 --> 01:44:03,840
He was just living in like like a shitty apartment that like is probably like on like the fifth

1614
01:44:03,840 --> 01:44:07,040
floor, shit like that.

1615
01:44:07,040 --> 01:44:08,040
Yeah.

1616
01:44:08,040 --> 01:44:13,520
So costumes here were frickin fantastic.

1617
01:44:13,520 --> 01:44:19,080
The question is, are you at an eight, a nine or ten?

1618
01:44:19,080 --> 01:44:22,120
I think I'm leaning more towards a nine.

1619
01:44:22,120 --> 01:44:23,120
Same here.

1620
01:44:23,120 --> 01:44:24,120
All right.

1621
01:44:24,120 --> 01:44:26,600
Last up, we got our own personal scores.

1622
01:44:26,600 --> 01:44:27,600
Who should take this one?

1623
01:44:27,600 --> 01:44:28,600
I'm good with either.

1624
01:44:28,600 --> 01:44:31,080
Don't I take it?

1625
01:44:31,080 --> 01:44:32,080
You're running the show.

1626
01:44:32,080 --> 01:44:33,080
Go ahead.

1627
01:44:33,080 --> 01:44:37,720
OK, well, if I'm running the show, how about you take it?

1628
01:44:37,720 --> 01:44:40,320
All right.

1629
01:44:40,320 --> 01:44:49,560
I I will say I'm not I have never been the biggest fan of boxing movies.

1630
01:44:49,560 --> 01:44:55,480
There's been a few standouts with me or just like fighting movies in general.

1631
01:44:55,480 --> 01:45:01,280
Like I said, there's been a few standouts, not very many.

1632
01:45:01,280 --> 01:45:06,440
Like I I think I've only seen maybe one Rocky movie.

1633
01:45:06,440 --> 01:45:08,880
That was Rocky Balboa.

1634
01:45:08,880 --> 01:45:14,160
And honestly, wasn't super impressed with it.

1635
01:45:14,160 --> 01:45:18,560
I did really like Warrior.

1636
01:45:18,560 --> 01:45:20,600
That one was with Tom Hardy.

1637
01:45:20,600 --> 01:45:22,520
Really like that movie.

1638
01:45:22,520 --> 01:45:26,440
I also really liked.

1639
01:45:26,440 --> 01:45:28,520
I'm thinking about it too hard now.

1640
01:45:28,520 --> 01:45:32,280
I'm not going to remember.

1641
01:45:32,280 --> 01:45:35,960
Oh, here comes the boom with Kevin James.

1642
01:45:35,960 --> 01:45:36,960
Oh, yeah.

1643
01:45:36,960 --> 01:45:39,880
I freaking love that movie.

1644
01:45:39,880 --> 01:45:41,280
So we're seeing it.

1645
01:45:41,280 --> 01:45:42,280
Oh, it's good.

1646
01:45:42,280 --> 01:45:43,280
Yeah.

1647
01:45:43,280 --> 01:45:45,280
OK, let's check it out.

1648
01:45:45,280 --> 01:45:46,280
Yeah.

1649
01:45:46,280 --> 01:45:53,480
I like those are the big like fighter movies that come off the top of my head, ones that

1650
01:45:53,480 --> 01:45:57,200
I actually really liked.

1651
01:45:57,200 --> 01:46:00,240
And I'm adding Creed to this list.

1652
01:46:00,240 --> 01:46:05,000
I'm adding this one and I'm adding the first one, the second one.

1653
01:46:05,000 --> 01:46:10,400
But I can I can see myself going back and watching one and three over and over and over

1654
01:46:10,400 --> 01:46:11,480
again.

1655
01:46:11,480 --> 01:46:14,940
Like it is so good.

1656
01:46:14,940 --> 01:46:24,520
And three is just a master class of how to freshen up how these movies feel.

1657
01:46:24,520 --> 01:46:30,320
So I I went in not expecting too much because I was either thinking it was going to be a

1658
01:46:30,320 --> 01:46:36,000
little bit better than two or slightly worse than two.

1659
01:46:36,000 --> 01:46:42,840
So like I said, didn't go in with super high hopes, but I came out really impressed.

1660
01:46:42,840 --> 01:46:45,800
And I freaking loved it.

1661
01:46:45,800 --> 01:46:51,620
So I'm sitting at a solid 90.

1662
01:46:51,620 --> 01:46:54,720
So I I absolutely agree with everything.

1663
01:46:54,720 --> 01:46:59,740
Caleb said I have never seen a rock movie, like I said earlier.

1664
01:46:59,740 --> 01:47:06,640
So this this Creed franchise or sorry, this Creed trilogy was my first introduction to

1665
01:47:06,640 --> 01:47:10,020
not only this world, but these characters.

1666
01:47:10,020 --> 01:47:17,000
And I've loved being along for the ride, even though I watched all three in a weekend or

1667
01:47:17,000 --> 01:47:18,480
almost a weekend.

1668
01:47:18,480 --> 01:47:21,280
Literally it's it's insane.

1669
01:47:21,280 --> 01:47:27,040
I didn't have to wait two to three years after each one, which I was glad about.

1670
01:47:27,040 --> 01:47:30,600
Enjoy this franchise as much as I did.

1671
01:47:30,600 --> 01:47:35,400
And especially coming out of the second one, which wasn't as good as the first one.

1672
01:47:35,400 --> 01:47:37,480
I was kind of like Caleb.

1673
01:47:37,480 --> 01:47:40,680
I was skeptical about this third one, but I had my hopes.

1674
01:47:40,680 --> 01:47:45,920
And Michael B. Jordan blew it out of the water with his first directorial debut.

1675
01:47:45,920 --> 01:47:49,600
Fantastic, fantastic third movie.

1676
01:47:49,600 --> 01:47:51,720
His performance, Jonathan Majors, especially.

1677
01:47:51,720 --> 01:47:58,000
Oh my God, he's both are a powerhouse and just they both bring bring their all along

1678
01:47:58,000 --> 01:47:59,360
with Tessa Thompson.

1679
01:47:59,360 --> 01:48:06,200
Just incredible performances by all three and just said it's such a great story.

1680
01:48:06,200 --> 01:48:08,200
Amazing character development.

1681
01:48:08,200 --> 01:48:11,280
And just yeah, I just had such a good time with this third one.

1682
01:48:11,280 --> 01:48:16,120
This is the one that I will be going to visit quite often, revisit quite often just because

1683
01:48:16,120 --> 01:48:18,520
I had such a great time with this one.

1684
01:48:18,520 --> 01:48:22,600
I enjoyed the absolute hell out of it.

1685
01:48:22,600 --> 01:48:27,720
So I'm going to be slightly above Caleb.

1686
01:48:27,720 --> 01:48:30,320
Maybe this might be like really above Caleb.

1687
01:48:30,320 --> 01:48:32,920
I'm going to go in 93.

1688
01:48:32,920 --> 01:48:33,920
Nice.

1689
01:48:33,920 --> 01:48:34,920
All right.

1690
01:48:34,920 --> 01:48:40,440
So with that, I'm going through our categories real quick.

1691
01:48:40,440 --> 01:48:46,320
Story is sitting at a 92.5.

1692
01:48:46,320 --> 01:48:54,000
Writing is slightly below that, like barely any, sitting at a 92.

1693
01:48:54,000 --> 01:48:59,640
Acting scored pretty decently sitting at a 95.

1694
01:48:59,640 --> 01:49:02,920
Character development is sitting at a 93.5.

1695
01:49:02,920 --> 01:49:05,680
Music is sitting at a 91.

1696
01:49:05,680 --> 01:49:10,920
Music was probably our lowest category sitting at an eight out of 10.

1697
01:49:10,920 --> 01:49:15,560
And our costumes was bumped up by one point sitting at a nine out of 10.

1698
01:49:15,560 --> 01:49:21,100
And then our personal score averaged out to a 91.5.

1699
01:49:21,100 --> 01:49:30,000
So with all of that added up, the final All Bros letter grade for Creed 3 has come to

1700
01:49:30,000 --> 01:49:34,680
a A minus.

1701
01:49:34,680 --> 01:49:36,640
Yes.

1702
01:49:36,640 --> 01:49:37,640
Hell yeah.

1703
01:49:37,640 --> 01:49:38,640
Yeah.

1704
01:49:38,640 --> 01:49:45,560
This was a good one, like a damn good one.

1705
01:49:45,560 --> 01:49:52,040
So I'm personally very happy with the score here.

1706
01:49:52,040 --> 01:50:00,320
Yeah, so it is sitting at a 91.31%.

1707
01:50:00,320 --> 01:50:03,680
So with that, that puts it.

1708
01:50:03,680 --> 01:50:08,400
Should we go above or below first?

1709
01:50:08,400 --> 01:50:10,640
Do we usually do below first or above?

1710
01:50:10,640 --> 01:50:11,720
I don't know.

1711
01:50:11,720 --> 01:50:16,200
I think I'm pretty decent about switching it off.

1712
01:50:16,200 --> 01:50:18,640
Let's start with below then this time.

1713
01:50:18,640 --> 01:50:19,960
All right.

1714
01:50:19,960 --> 01:50:27,760
So it is sitting below Coco, which is at a 91.4.

1715
01:50:27,760 --> 01:50:34,320
It is sitting below the Batman, which is at a 91.62.

1716
01:50:34,320 --> 01:50:39,600
It's also below Logan, which is at a 91.81.

1717
01:50:39,600 --> 01:50:45,240
It's below our friend, which is at a 92.12.

1718
01:50:45,240 --> 01:50:50,960
And then finally, it is below the Eternals, which is at a 92.25.

1719
01:50:50,960 --> 01:50:54,920
I'm sure that's going to piss a lot of people off.

1720
01:50:54,920 --> 01:50:58,880
Probably.

1721
01:50:58,880 --> 01:51:04,480
Going the opposite direction now, it is sitting above Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten

1722
01:51:04,480 --> 01:51:08,520
Rings, which is at a 91.2.

1723
01:51:08,520 --> 01:51:15,200
It is above Puss in Boots, The Last Wish, which is at a 91.12.

1724
01:51:15,200 --> 01:51:21,360
It's above Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, which is at a 91.1.

1725
01:51:21,360 --> 01:51:28,880
It's also above How to Train Your Dragon, The Hidden World, which is at a 91.

1726
01:51:28,880 --> 01:51:37,440
And then finally, it is above Everything Everywhere All at Once, which is at a 90.93.

1727
01:51:37,440 --> 01:51:39,800
Holy shit, it's above that?

1728
01:51:39,800 --> 01:51:40,800
Wow.

1729
01:51:40,800 --> 01:51:41,800
Yep.

1730
01:51:41,800 --> 01:51:43,880
I'm okay with that.

1731
01:51:43,880 --> 01:51:45,160
I'm okay with it too.

1732
01:51:45,160 --> 01:51:52,080
I think what set this above was maybe music.

1733
01:51:52,080 --> 01:51:59,560
I think Creed did enough with the music to go higher than Everything Everywhere.

1734
01:51:59,560 --> 01:52:01,880
Yeah, that's fair.

1735
01:52:01,880 --> 01:52:08,960
The one that's kind of standing out to me might be the Batman.

1736
01:52:08,960 --> 01:52:17,560
I mean, the margins there are so close, it's not crazy or anything.

1737
01:52:17,560 --> 01:52:23,200
Before you get a full percentage away, it's...

1738
01:52:23,200 --> 01:52:29,360
I guess The Eternals is technically right there, because it's right above Eternals.

1739
01:52:29,360 --> 01:52:32,480
It is Elvis.

1740
01:52:32,480 --> 01:52:36,360
And so Elvis is a full percentage higher than Creed III.

1741
01:52:36,360 --> 01:52:38,080
Gotcha, okay.

1742
01:52:38,080 --> 01:52:41,760
Yeah, and then go in the opposite direction.

1743
01:52:41,760 --> 01:52:42,760
So that'd be like...

1744
01:52:42,760 --> 01:52:47,800
Oh, it's like a ridiculous amount of movies.

1745
01:52:47,800 --> 01:52:52,180
So before you get a full percentage away...

1746
01:52:52,180 --> 01:52:55,040
So the first movie that it gets to...

1747
01:52:55,040 --> 01:52:58,660
So like I said, Creed III is at 91.31.

1748
01:52:58,660 --> 01:53:05,680
To get to a 90.3, you'd have to be at 1917.

1749
01:53:05,680 --> 01:53:10,360
And that is 14 movies before you're a full percentage away.

1750
01:53:10,360 --> 01:53:12,080
Holy shit.

1751
01:53:12,080 --> 01:53:13,080
Yeah.

1752
01:53:13,080 --> 01:53:14,760
God damn.

1753
01:53:14,760 --> 01:53:15,760
So it...

1754
01:53:15,760 --> 01:53:16,760
Wow, okay.

1755
01:53:16,760 --> 01:53:21,760
Yeah, it's ridiculous.

1756
01:53:21,760 --> 01:53:26,800
It's just like the difference is so minimal.

1757
01:53:26,800 --> 01:53:32,320
So I mean, I know we have these rankings and it's all like fun and games, but literally

1758
01:53:32,320 --> 01:53:38,600
like whatever you're upset about, it's highly unlikely that it's even a full percentage

1759
01:53:38,600 --> 01:53:43,840
away from each other.

1760
01:53:43,840 --> 01:53:46,160
Like whoever's upset that...

1761
01:53:46,160 --> 01:53:53,360
Let's see, like we have Avengers Infinity War higher than...

1762
01:53:53,360 --> 01:53:55,720
Maybe that was a poor example.

1763
01:53:55,720 --> 01:53:59,760
Oh my God.

1764
01:53:59,760 --> 01:54:00,760
Nice try.

1765
01:54:00,760 --> 01:54:01,760
Yeah.

1766
01:54:01,760 --> 01:54:03,600
So okay, maybe this.

1767
01:54:03,600 --> 01:54:09,040
Like whoever's upset that maybe everything everywhere all at once is higher than the

1768
01:54:09,040 --> 01:54:14,440
Matrix, the difference between those isn't even...

1769
01:54:14,440 --> 01:54:16,120
It's barely over half a percentage.

1770
01:54:16,120 --> 01:54:18,600
Wait, did I do that math right?

1771
01:54:18,600 --> 01:54:19,600
I probably didn't.

1772
01:54:19,600 --> 01:54:24,600
Okay, it's a little over a half a percentage.

1773
01:54:24,600 --> 01:54:31,440
So where everything everywhere is at a 90.9, the Matrix is at a 90.2.

1774
01:54:31,440 --> 01:54:34,480
So it's a 0.7 difference.

1775
01:54:34,480 --> 01:54:37,560
So barely over half.

1776
01:54:37,560 --> 01:54:42,360
Like we've said time and time again, these margins are so ridiculously close.

1777
01:54:42,360 --> 01:54:44,600
So it's like the percentage doesn't really even matter.

1778
01:54:44,600 --> 01:54:49,160
It's just more for fun because we like to see where these rank up.

1779
01:54:49,160 --> 01:54:57,480
But all in all, at the end of the day, this movie is an A-movie and it's in a really good

1780
01:54:57,480 --> 01:54:58,480
home.

1781
01:54:58,480 --> 01:54:59,480
Agreed.

1782
01:54:59,480 --> 01:55:05,920
Well, unless you got anything else you want to say about Creed 3.

1783
01:55:05,920 --> 01:55:06,920
Nope.

1784
01:55:06,920 --> 01:55:09,040
Other than that, go check it out.

1785
01:55:09,040 --> 01:55:10,040
Yes, seriously guys.

1786
01:55:10,040 --> 01:55:16,320

Next week on the podcast, we'll be breaking down Scream 6, which I am so excited for.

1805
01:56:28,320 --> 01:56:31,800
I don't know when you're going to go see it, but I think me and Christine are going to

1806
01:56:31,800 --> 01:56:38,120
go see it Thursday just to avoid spoilers on who isn't going to make it out of this

1807
01:56:38,120 --> 01:56:39,120
one.

1808
01:56:39,120 --> 01:56:41,880
Yeah, I think I'm going to try for Monday.

1809
01:56:41,880 --> 01:56:42,880
Okay.

1810
01:56:42,880 --> 01:56:46,800
Yeah, just because I went to go see Creed yesterday.

1811
01:56:46,800 --> 01:56:52,200
So going to see two movies in one week is a bit of an ask.

1812
01:56:52,200 --> 01:56:55,240
So I think I'm shooting for Monday.

1813
01:56:55,240 --> 01:56:57,040
Hell yeah.

1814
01:56:57,040 --> 01:56:59,400
Very nice.

1815
01:56:59,400 --> 01:57:04,840
But yeah, so you guys can look forward to that next week.

1816
01:57:04,840 --> 01:57:07,200
But until then, this has been the all bros podcast.

1817
01:57:07,200 --> 01:57:08,800
I am Jonathan.

1818
01:57:08,800 --> 01:57:10,240
And I'm Caleb.

1819
01:57:10,240 --> 01:57:12,280
And we'll catch you guys next week.

1820
01:57:12,280 --> 01:57:13,280
So long.

1821
01:57:13,280 --> 01:57:17,760
Adasus.
