What is up bros?
This is the All Bros Podcast.
I am Jonathan.
Why'd you do the intro weird?
Because for a second I forgot what I was going to say.
So it came out very monotone as kind of like a soothing podcast.
That's what we turned into.
This podcast is anything but soothing.
Fair enough.
I feel like we get very worked up over dumb shit.
Hey, but you know what?
It's stuff we love so who gives a flying shit?
True that.
Anyway, I'm Caleb.
And we are a couple of aspiring filmmakers that love to watch and critique movies but
also enjoy a lot of the nerd life.
This week on the podcast we'll be talking about some Funko Focus.
I stopped myself.
Rose?
I was about to come over there and slap the shit out of you.
I straight up almost called you Calbers because I started saying Caleb.
I started saying Caleb but then I'm like you know what I want to say is last name so
it kind of almost came out as Calbers.
But anyway, so Funko Focus.
We got a new amount of Funko Pops in a Pixar line that we'll be talking about.
One of my favorite Pixar movies and I'm assuming maybe it's one of Caleb's.
I don't know.
No.
Okay.
Fair.
This is actually one of my least favorite.
God damn.
This isn't as low as Good Dinosaur if that makes you feel better.
But it's down there.
If it's that low, damn.
Yeah, it's not that low but it's like maybe a couple movies above that.
Is it higher than Brave?
No.
I like Brave more.
Wow.
Okay.
You know what?
It's okay.
We're all friends here.
I think at least.
The look on your face, not for long.
I'm just kidding.
I'm kidding.
So anyway, we'll be talking about that.
And then for 4K Spotlight, we got two new movies coming to 4K and Blu-ray.
One that we are actually very excited to check out and then one that, for me at least, could
give two shits about.
Fair.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Never liked this franchise but we'll go more into detail.
And then after that, we'll be going into Through the Wall.
We have three trailers to talk about.
We have a trailer for a new Marvel show coming out in November as well as two new video games
that don't come out until 2023, which really freaking sucks.
And not for us people that have to save up for a PS5.
That's true.
So I mean, like I told Caleb, let's hope that they actually have a decent amount in stock
by then.
If they don't, they're just doing everything wrong.
Yes, they really are.
But then after that, we'll be moving on to our All Bros headliner, which will be our
breakdown of the...
I thought it was an Amazon original but it's actually not.
It is Our Friend starring Jason Sudeikis, Casey Affleck.
Not Jason Sudeikis.
I'm sorry.
Jason Sudeikis.
I'm sorry.
Wow.
I just did injustice to my favorite character in this movie.
What's wrong with me?
Starring Jason Seagal, Casey Affleck, and Dakota Johnson.
There we go.
Got it.
I am like really starting off this episode strong and I feel it's probably going to be
downhill from here.
So guys get ready.
Those are the best episodes.
It is true.
So anyway, Caleb, what do you say we get started?
Let's do it.
Hey guys, I'm Crash, host of the podcast Crash and Tez's Movie Seller.
On our show, me and my co-host pick a new movie each week and rate each movie on a few
categories that we think are important to making a great movie.
After we rate the movie, it gets a final rating and that lands it somewhere on our seller
scale where it will get labeled as either a well, premium, or a top-shelf film.
Catch us on platforms like Spotify, Google, Amazon Music, and more.
And don't forget to follow us on social media.
On Instagram as Crash and Tez's Movie Seller, it's Crash the Letter N Tez Movie Seller

Overall, don't forget to follow or subscribe and rate and review us and get ready for an
entertaining to show with us.
See you guys then.
Alright so first off with Funko Focus, Monsters Inc. has some new Funko Pops coming to its
line.
Got some pretty good ones.
If I still collected Funko Pops, or at least like if I didn't collect like super, super,
super specific ones, I would probably go for these.
So when it comes to just commons, we have a new Boo Pop.
This looks like the exact same as the last one.
I don't really know what's different.
Oh I think the last one she wasn't smiling.
Wait really?
I thought the only other Boo Pop that I know of is the one where she's not in that costume.
Okay maybe, yeah I think you're right.
Nevermind, take back what I said.
I'm gonna look it up while you're talking.
Okay cool.
Well so next to her we finally have, at least I'm pretty sure this is the only Celia Funko
Pop we're getting, with her classic Medusa-like hair, with her like five snake buddies hanging
down.
And then this is the one that I would get if I still did collect Funko Pops, or like
I said I didn't collect them very specifically.
It's Mike Wazowski, but he's in his like, I guess like his like child protective gear,
like he has the oven mitts on, he has his flippers, the colander, the fricking, what
is it called?
Like that breathing tube that you have when you have like goggles on?
Oh a snorkel.
Snorkel thank you.
Snorkel and then he has like fricking disinfectant spray.
And I just love this fricking scene when he's just like, as long as it doesn't come near
us we're gonna be okay.
And Boo sneezes in his face and he's like, ah, ah, gets in his eye, gets me every time.
Fricking love this scene.
So I just confirmed the only other Boo Pop, there's actually, I'm sorry there's two other
Boo Pops.
There's one where she is unhooded in her monster outfit.
Then one where she's in her normal clothes.
And then there was one that came in a two pack where it was like a giant Sully and a
little Boo.
Isn't that one worth a shit ton of money now?
Yeah.
Like how much?
That is an excellent question.
Let me find out.
I'm scared to know.
Anyway at the rate that they're going with these, the next Boo Pop is gonna be when the
helmet is actually fully closed and she actually looks like a monster.
So next to Mike we have a Sully with also going off the scene that Mike's in.
He has a colander on his head as well as a trash can lid that he's holding as a shield.
Wasn't that what it was in the movie?
Yeah trash can lid and that, I think that's a strainer on his head.
Don't people call it either a strainer or a colander or some shit like that?
I thought the colander is what Mike has and then the strainer is what Sully has.
I thought it was just the difference between the size of the holes.
I think Caleb's right.
No I think you're right dude.
That's serious.
Okay so Sully has a strainer on his head and he's holding a trash can lid as a shield.
And then next to Sully is the abominable snowman with, don't worry it's Lemon.
Snow Cunts.
So that one's great.
And then when it comes to exclusives for these it's literally, okay so two, they're not lazy
but they're like, two of them are like the exact same as the ones on like the last page,
just different.
So the Amazon exclusive is Sully in the exact same position but this time he's flocked.
And then the abominable snowman has a Hot Topic exclusive where he's scented.
If it's not Lemon I don't want it.
I feel whoever did this Funko Pop, if he didn't make it smell like Lemon I don't like calling
people this but I think you're stupid.
Yes.
Missed opportunities.
Tremendously.
I know this isn't like the most popular show so I'm not afraid of giving spoilers.
Have you watched Monsters at Work?
I've only seen like the first three episodes.
I need to finish it.
You mind if I spoil it?
Spoil an episode?
They bring Abominable back.
Yes.
Voiced by the original actor and everything.
What is it, John Ratzenberger?
Is that what it is?
Good question.
I want to say yes.
Oh, well now I gotta go and finish it.
Really quickly with Monsters at Work.
Don't they bring in like an evil Mike?
It's not an evil Mike, it's his cousin Gary.
So he's blue, right?
He's voiced by Gaborly Glacius?
How is he?
He is such a small character.
I forgot about him until you brought him up.
I was expecting so much more because they made a huge deal.
Even Gabriel made a big deal about it.
Like, oh I'm going to be on Monsters at Work and I'm like, yes, I freaking love this.
He was in one episode where he wasn't even a big part of the episode.
He was the protagonist in that.
I think there was a bowling thing.
He was only there for the opening and then he was there at the end for a little bit.
And then he was there for a really quick throwaway scene in a later episode.
And then that was it.
That was all we got of him.
Yeah that's dumb.
They blew him way out of proportion.
That sucks.
But yeah, it was basically just a blue mic.
Well, they tried.
I think they tried really hard with this show and I think it just felt flat.
Yeah.
I mean, I haven't finished it yet.
Which is better, Monsters University or Monsters at Work?
Monsters University.
Damn, that's saying a lot I feel.
I thought you liked Monsters University.
I am one of the very few people that actually love Monsters University.
I like Monsters University more than I like Monsters Inc.
You know what, actually I think I might agree with you.
I don't know why.
I love that movie.
But I just didn't think that an actual true sequel to Monsters Inc. in a way would be
worse than the prequel that doesn't even go against its own timeline considering in Monsters
Inc. Mike clearly says that you've been jealous, he tells Sully, you've been jealous of my
look since the third grade, pal.
Yeah.
I think another thing that they really dropped the ball on with Monsters at Work is that
they didn't focus on Mike and Sully.
Yeah, that was the big...
I mean, don't get me wrong.
I have no problems with new characters.
I love the...
Was it Ben Feldman?
Yeah.
The premise for this, the show is good.
Just don't give us...
Don't tease us with these characters that we like because I'd rather see them than these
new characters.
Dude, from what I've seen so far, it feels like John Goodman and Billy Crystal were probably
able to film all of their lines in a day.
Easily.
Yeah.
But they have a lot of stuff to do.
They were a big part of the show.
And I think that's what...
Personally, to make me care about the characters that they're going to be walking through with
us, to make us care about them more, I would have had Sully and Mike in the first episode
and then that was it.
No, that's fair.
Bring in, bring old fans back, but also that's a really good way to introduce a new idea
and help that they stick around.
Yeah, but I think it's just having Mike and Sully there really brought down the show itself.
Yeah, no, that's fair.
That's fair.
Oh, sorry, one more exclusive.
So it's a Funko Shop exclusive.
Big shocker here.
And it's Sully holding Boo when they put her in the Chinese takeout box.
Dude, same pose and everything.
The only thing that's different is his mouth.
Yeah.
His fingers are a little different, like one's behind another, but that's it.
Yeah, it's basically the exact same pose.
Like I said, they kind of got lazy with these exclusives, but they did.
Like I don't even know what I would have done.
Yeah, dude, you got me.
The only thing that I could think of is maybe having Boo on his head, like in her costume
or on his back.
You know, and I know this is probably like messed up.
I want a Funko Pop that has a when Sully thinks that Boo got crushed and she's the big pile
of garbage.
Just like a sis set.
Just a depressed Funko Pop of Sully.
Dude, that would be amazing.
Total side note, but just because I did look it up, that really big Sully and the metallic
Boo goes for $960.
F you.
Right?
No Funko Pop is worth that.
Least to me.
No, not even a little bit.
Anyway, she's we thought I throw that in there before we completely moved on.
No, thank you for throwing that very.
Oh my God.
I'm so pleased.
F you.
That's all I have to say.
All right.
Moving on to 4K Spotlight, we have two brand new releases coming out.
First up, we got Disney's Cruella, which will be getting not only a 4K and Blu-ray release,
but also a Best Buy exclusive steelbook and a Target exclusive Digi book.
I have not seen this one yet.
I am very actually I'm actually really looking forward to finally watching this movie.
I am too.
I haven't heard amazing things about the movie, but I mean, I'll watch anything with Emma
Stone in it because she's amazing and everything she does.
True.
So I told Caleb, since it's like on Disney plus for like all subscribers to watch, you
don't have to pay extra to watch it.
I feel I should probably watch it first before I buy the steelbook, even though that steelbook
so freaking tempting.
It's so beautiful.
But I think I'm going to hold out because I doubt I doubt it's going to sell out because
Disney's really good at overproducing steelbooks because I thought because what was it Friday
Thursday?
No Thursday.
Black Widow's steelbook like went out of stock online.
I'm like, are you freaking kidding me?
So it finally came up for like back up for like a second.
I pre ordered as fast as I could.
And then the day that it came out, it finally went back into stock.
And so I get it in the mail.
The disk is loose.
So I'm like, okay, hell no.
Like there's I'm getting a different copy.
There's no way I'm taking a chance at my disk being scratched.
So I go to so I go online to see if any stores have it in stock.
Freaking Best Buy and American Fork like just barely put out their stock when I went there
today to exchange.
They had probably like at least 10 maybe 15 steelbooks.
That's not bad.
Yeah.
So thankfully I was able to pick the best one or at least I thought because there is
like a slight dent on the top.
You can't see it really.
You really can't see it unless you're like shining the light like hella bright at it.
But Rose knows it's there now.
I really wish I wouldn't have looked at it in the light because like there's no slit
on the spine.
It's perfectly aligned.
There's nothing on the back.
No dents, no scratches.
And then yeah, when I flipped it to the front, just double check.
I'm like, no, but it's okay.
You know what?
The way I looked at it, my Spider-Man Far From Home steelbook has like two large like
bullet sized dents on the back and those like you notice like that.
Whereas this one, like I said, you really have to be freaking looking to see that shit.
That's fair, but I think it's still going to bug you.
I know.
Shut up.
And you know what the sad thing is?
I can't like really I can't say like, oh, well, you know, like usually because usually
if there's like a dent on the back, I can say, well, the J card was covering it up.
So I couldn't have seen it.
No, if I would have shined it a little more in the light at the store, I could have probably
seen that considering it's on the front.
God damn, bring a light or do you like just use your phone flashlight?
I don't use any of those.
I'm not that bad.
Like how do you know or you don't take a light to the thing before you buy it?
No, because I feel I would get some weird ass looks if I did that.
Sir is there anything I can help with?
No, just making sure there's no dents, no spine so it's carry on.
Excellent work, gentlemen.
Thanks for having this fully stocked for me.
I appreciate it.
Or just the opposite.
There is like a bunch of dents in the majority of them and just like, I'm disappointed in
you guys do better and then walk out.
Oh man, one of the guys that I watch on YouTube, like when he went to go get his copy, fricking
all the ones that they had up front, all the discs were loose.
So he's just like, oh, my soul is crushed.
But like I kind of have to have it.
So he was going to buy one with a loose disc, but thankfully he went to the back and there
were ones without loose discs.
Yeah, like I mean, I know it's like 4K and Blu-ray disc, but I'm sorry, I don't like
to take a chance.
Dude, that's really risky.
Like I know that at least with Blu-ray movies, they have less of a like they're harder to
scratch.
Yeah, it's nothing like a DVD.
Yeah, but still like you don't want to mess around with that shit.
Like I think especially kids like us, like what are we're like young millennials, right?
I think so.
Pretty sure that's what we're considered.
So us like we were we were still raised on on old like actually I was raised on on VHS
for the longest time and then slowly transitioned to to DVD when when Blu-ray was like the big
ticket item.
But real.
Oh, dude, that sucks.
Yeah.
Well, we never had a TV where it would have made a difference.
Okay.
Okay, fair enough.
But but yeah, like I was raised in a time where the like with it just being DVDs.
Yeah.
It was so easy to scratch the DVDs.
It was.
And like I know they had those like DVD scratch cleaners, but half the time those bitches
didn't even work.
No, they didn't.
Like they rarely ever worked.
Like I think that's that might be a big reason why I'm on.
I'm a big fan of the the digital movies.
See I can completely understand that.
Yeah, because it's like as time goes on, like with DV like with me, it was like when DVDs
were a big ticket item, I was watching VHS.
So I always kind of felt like left out.
And then when we transitioned when my family transitioned into DVDs, everyone was watching
Blu-ray on like their high quality TV.
And I think just having the digital copy is really nice because movies that that were
only standard definition when you gave them to me, I now have an HD version of them completely
free.
See?
Hell yeah.
So it's like I have to pay another extra $25 to get that extra HD version.
Yeah, and it does I will say this, it does suck that I have to rely on a decent Wi-Fi
connection.
But yeah, I feel like that's a very small price to pay for really good quality stuff.
No, that's absolutely fair.
Yeah, I can definitely agree with that.
So I mean, dude, if it makes you feel any better, I still haven't even I don't even have a 4k
player yet.
I'm still playing Blu-ray.
I'm kind of just honestly waiting till I get a PS5.
Yeah, it's not like Blu-ray is going anywhere anytime soon.
All combo packs always come with 4k plus Blu-ray.
It's very rare that it's just that it just comes with the 4k.
Yeah, it's true.
And I don't I don't have a 4k TV either.
It's just there.
I feel like they're like really expensive.
They are and unless you have a 4k player, it really doesn't change that much.
Yeah, exactly.
I know that like Xbox has a 4k feature.
Like if you have a 4k TV, but like my youngest or one of my not my youngest, my younger brother
Koi, he bought a 4k TV, but it was only like one of those super small 23 inch TVs.
Oh, see, like barely even see any 4k with that.
Yeah, like I know when I when I buy a freaking 4k TV, I want it to be massive.
Oh, yeah, I bought a I'm not gonna lie.
I did buy a 50 inch 4k TV.
Yeah, there's nothing wrong with that.
Like it needs to be big.
Yeah.
Like, yeah, it just needs to be big.
So and you probably thought I was going to say that's what she said, but I did not.
I resisted.
I'm proud of myself out there now.
I'm still proud of myself.
Anyway, I'm done about 4k being poor.
I'm done bitching about dents on my steel books that are barely even noticeable.
No you're not.
Don't lie.
I know.
I just think that's funny because like the Zack Snyder Justice League steel book came
pristine.
There's not one dent nor scratch in sight on that thing.
That's impressive, though.
I mean, I'm happy about that because have you seen how much that thing is going for
now considering you can't get it anywhere?
No.
About a hundred bucks or more.
Holy shit.
For like the best buy.
If you want to get like the overseas UK version, probably about like 40 to 50.
But if you want to get like the actual one that says best buy exclusive, yeah, you're
going to be paying close to a hundred bucks.
Holy shit.
Yeah.
So I really lucked out pre-ordering that one and I'm very happy.
Yeah, that's that's really good.
And then the next big release of this week is Fast and Furious 9, which I don't know
about Caleb, but I could give two shits about this franchise.
I've only seen one.
I've seen Fast and Furious, too fast, too furious.
Didn't really intrigue me that much.
And just, I don't know, like I feel the series has done all it can.
It's been done to death and I swear if I hear Dom Toretto talk one more time about family,
I'm going to lose my shit.
Oh my gosh, dude, those franchises or that entire franchise is so dumb.
They just get more and more ridiculous.
You know what?
What Fast 9 turned into?
It turned into Jason Goes to Space.
It did.
That's what Brielle told me.
They actually ended up going to space.
So Jason X. That's what it turned into.
Yeah.
If Fast 10, they're probably going to go to hell.
Dom's going to be like, I got to save my family in hell.
I got to make sure that they make it to heaven, even if I have to fight, save myself.
That was the worst Vin Diesel.
I know it was.
Inception ever.
I couldn't do a good Vin Diesel.
It's just so dumb.
But if you guys are interested and you guys actually like this franchise, kudos to you
if you guys like this franchise.
This is not for us.
It will be getting a Target exclusive, I think it's a DigiBook.
I want to double check on that because it's getting a Best Buy exclusive steelbook.
Shocker.
Oh, OK.
So it's not a DigiBook at Target.
It includes 10 collectible character art cards.
Whoop-de-doo.
That's all I got to say to that.
I will give them this though.
I appreciate them keeping, when it comes to the steelbook, I appreciate them keeping in
the line of how the other steelbooks have came.
It looks exactly the same layout.
So if you guys have Fast 1 through 9, all your steelbooks are going to line up so well.
I really appreciate them keeping with this.
I hope that for anyone that does collect these that they keep it through this way until Fast
11.
I think that's supposed to be the last one.
God, my hell.
Just end the series.
No, man, they can't.
It makes too much money for Universal.
Dude, the damn series got a freaking ride at Universal.
You know this franchise makes money.
But yeah, so besides that, actually there are two re-4K releases.
Well, the first time on 4K.
And that's going to be, oh my goodness, M. Night Shyamalan's Unbreakable.
So that's his first in his trilogy.
Yeah, so it goes Unbreakable, then Split, then Glass.
So that's the first one.
And then that is also getting a Best Buy exclusive steelbook.
And then I can't believe this is actually finally getting a 4K release, A Clockwork Orange.
Geez.
Yeah.
I've always wanted to check that movie out.
I never did.
I just might pick up this steelbook.
Honestly, I'm kind of shocked that the steelbook design is not the regular 4K design.
And then the 4K design is the steelbook design.
Because I would have preferred that.
I think it would have just made a lot more sense.
I'll send this to you after we're done, Caleb.
And I want to get your opinion.
But yeah, that's it for 4K Spotlight this coming week.
So if you guys want to pick up any of those, there are your options.
Moving on to Through the Wall.
We've got three new trailers to talk about.
Caleb, which one would you want to start with first?
I think we should start with the ones that we have the least amount to say.
And that's the PS5 games coming out.
OK.
Sounds good to me.
Do you want to start with Wolverine or Spider-Man 2?
Let's go with Wolverine.
I feel like that one is, at least for me, is the most intriguing of the two.
But we barely got any information about this game, other than that it's coming out.
For those of you who haven't seen it, the trailer for this game, it just kind of goes
through a bar where some people got completely wrecked.
And then it kind of pans over to a shot of Logan sitting at the bar.
And he's in a flannel jacket and he's wearing a cowboy hat.
Like a straw hat.
And then it cuts to a shot of his hands and then his blades come out.
So all we know really is that there's a Wolverine game coming out.
It is being created by Insomniac, which is exciting because they are the ones that made
the Spider-Man PS4 game.
So you can imagine it's going to be open world.
If it's not open world and it's like a story-based game, that's going to be even better.
I'm wondering if that might be the direction they go because with Spider-Man it's like
a no-brainer to make that open world because he's the protector of New York City.
But I don't really know where you can make Logan's open world.
What do you think?
That would be a really tough one just because he's always in a wilderness setting.
And it seems like this is the case too.
He could be in the middle of Alaska for all we know.
And I think...
I just don't think it would track well for a character like Logan.
Yeah, that's...
If you do have an open world, you have to assume to get around fast, he has to take
a car or ride a motorcycle or...
Freaking bugs.
Or do something along those lines.
And that just gives me way too many Grand Theft Auto vibes.
That's fair.
That's totally fair.
Unless this is something where it's more following his story with the X-Men, which would be really
cool and then you have the X-Jet that you could go explore and the X-Mansion.
We have no information about this game at all.
No.
Whatsoever.
Yeah.
So, really what I'm hoping this game ends up being is a story-based level game where
it is kind of a free roam of whatever the level's map is.
And obviously that's not going to be full open world, but I want it to have super good
combat and I want the story to be kind of following his biggest comic story lines.
Oh yeah, I absolutely agree.
I think that'd be super cool.
And if it's Insomniac, maybe a cameo from Spider-Man?
That'd be freaking dope.
Yeah.
But that's what I'm hoping it is.
I hope that they do the big fight between him and Hulk.
I think that'd be super cool to do.
Oh, that'd be bitchin'.
And then just some other Wolverine stories.
Yeah, that'd be super cool.
I mean, like you said, they didn't really give away anything, but considering this is
Insomniac, I have nothing but faith in this project.
I have a feeling this is going to be fantastic.
I absolutely agree.
Yeah.
Yeah, there's really nothing else to say.
Like we said, the trailer barely gives anything away, but definitely go check out the trailer.
It's still really, really good.
But moving on to the other PS5 trailer that we got, we got the announcement for Insomniac's
Marvel's Spider-Man 2.
Which I am now renaming Spider-Man PS5.
Okay.
That works.
I like it.
Okay, so Spider-Man PS5.
What a trailer.
We get amazing shots of Peter and Miles working together, kicking some ass.
Freaking Peter has the spider tentacles come out of his suit.
It's amazing.
I love this trailer so much.
And then the trailer ends in honestly one of the best ways I think you could ever announce
a video game.
And we get introduced that Venom is going to be in the sequel.
Oh my gosh.
Yeah, it was kind of narrate.
It wasn't confirmed who it was narrated by, but I think we can both assume that it was
Kraven.
Yeah, dude, that's what my buddy JC said too.
So I'm pretty sure it's Kraven.
That's just his staple accent.
Yeah, no, I can't think of any other, at least Spider-Man villain that that voice could work
with besides Kraven.
Yeah, exactly.
So we know we're going to get Kraven in this and we know we're going to get Venom.
And Venom looks awesome.
Oh, he does.
We always saw it was his face, but he looks freaking epic.
Have they said if he's going to have the white symbol on his chest or not?
I would assume so.
They have to kind of I feel like they have to differentiate him from the other past Venoms.
That's true.
Yeah, they got to be a little different from Tom Hardy's Venom.
Yeah.
And I think like without that symbol, like it just kind of makes him like any other symbiote.
That's true.
So you know this game is going to be freaking badass.
Oh yeah.
So a lot of people have like speculated that since it looks like it's going to be a lot
of Miles and Peter working together.
Do you think that they're going to make it multiplayer or do you think maybe it's just
going to be like in certain like spots you have like you can have like team up moves
or some stuff like that?
I have a feeling it's going to be like, oh, you don't play Assassin's Creed, but there's
an Assassin's Creed.
I want to say it's called Syndicate.
Syndicate is you can switch between characters.
So they have some levels where you have to play as like the brother, some levels you
have to play as the sister, and then they have levels that you can play as either or.
I have a feeling that's what it's going to be like.
Like there's going to be some Miles levels, there's going to be some Peter levels, and
then the rest or the rest of the levels are going to be like, oh, you can pick and choose
who you want to be.
So kind of so in a way, kind of like how the first Spider-Man game was, but better.
Nothing against those MJ and you know, Miles before he got his or technically before he
came out with his powers.
But those weren't always the funnest.
No, they were not.
I really liked the the the MJ mission where she's in the train station and you're kind
of like controlling what Spider-Man does.
OK, yeah, that was cool.
That was yeah, that was super fun.
But yeah, some of the the Miles levels were rough.
So hopefully Insomniac listened to the fans when it came to that, because I know we're
not the only ones that weren't the biggest fans of those types of missions.
Yeah, I think they were good storytelling missions.
They just weren't very fun.
Yeah, no, I can definitely agree that because I'll admit, like every single time I like
got caught, I was like, son of a bitch, most through my remote on the floor.
It was just that he couldn't run like you could make him run.
Yeah, like that would have improved the levels drastically.
Oh, yeah, absolutely.
Absolutely.
But yeah, so I have I have very high hopes for this game.
Oh, yeah, same.
The one aspect of this game that I'm a little concerned about.
Is the free roaming.
Like are they it's just I feel it's going to be a little funky with swinging through
New York City again.
That's OK.
That's fair.
Like I want to know what what's something new they're going to add to the web swinging.
Yeah, because I mean, I know with like the Miles Morales Spider-Man game, the the change
that they made with that is they made it take place during Christmas time.
So you have to see New York during Christmas.
It snowed all that fun stuff.
So that's a cool change.
But of course, they can't do that again for Spider-Man PS5.
So yeah, I really don't know what they can do.
Yeah, that's going to be interesting to see.
And whether it's like a new web swinging feature or something like it, I think they just need
to change something about it to bring a new new wind to it.
Yeah, no, I know.
I agree.
Yeah.
And if they don't, they need to add something else to the game.
Yeah.
Whether it be more combat missions, new web gadgets or something along those lines.
It's going to be interesting.
I'm excited.
Oh yeah, me too.
I'm freaking stoked for this game.
But since we don't compare apples and oranges out of the two, which one are you more excited
for?
Spider-Man.
Sorry.
Yeah, I'm leaning towards Wolverine just because it's something we haven't seen before.
See, that's fair.
That's completely fair.
I mean, I know that there are Wolverine games out there, but this coming from Insomniac,
so close to Spider-Man PS4 or PS5.
And you already ruined your own renaming.
Yeah, I know.
Yeah I'm excited.
I'm excited for Wolverine.
I think it'll be a good time.
Oh yeah, no, I absolutely agree.
Well, unless you have anything else to say.
Not with those two.
So let's move on to I feel the big trailer of the week that dropped Monday.
We got our first trailer for Hawkeye.
Oh my God.
Frickin' Vic.
This is why I love having a podcast and being in it.
I knew Vic before we started this, but I feel since we started a podcast, I've gotten to
know Vic more and more and I fricking love it.
I consider him a really good friend now.
I love that he texts me Tuesday morning and he's just like, you okay, Rose?
I haven't heard from you recently.
Okay, after that Hawkeye trailer.
And he sends, because me, Caleb, and Vic are on a group chat, and he sends the freaking
gif from South Park when, I don't know who the hell it is, after he's freaking like ejaculated
and it's freaking everywhere.
And the freaking Caleb comes in, you know what, drink some Gatorade, Rose.
That will definitely help.
These two really helped me.
They really helped me get through the excitement that I went through after watching this trailer
so many times.
I can't even count how many times I've watched this trailer.
Dude, it is a bitchin' trailer.
And I know that we chat on Messenger, but we need to switch to Messages because I have
a group chat with my text messaging with Vic and DJ, and they both ask me, hey, is Rose
okay?
And I'm like, I have no idea.
And Vic was just like, this is basically Rose right now.
And it was that picture of Deadpool sniffing his guns and being like, ugh, I'm touching
myself tonight.
Yes, yes.
I love it.
Oh, man.
Dude, that's so cool.
I love it.
This trailer was awesome and so unexpected, too.
Yeah, what was it?
Jeremy Renner posted on his Instagram Monday night, trailer drops tomorrow.
I'm like, what?
That same reaction, I said it the exact same.
Dude, I didn't even get that.
I came home from work and I was eating lunch and I turned on YouTube to watch something
while I ate and then I saw the Hawkeye trailer and I almost choked on my sandwich.
But, oh my gosh, such a, so good.
Seriously, and this is only the first trailer.
Yeah.
But there were so many things that I'm super hyped for.
First off, this is like a holiday movie, which kind of gives me some diehard vibes.
That's what everyone's saying.
And you know what?
For Hawkeye, it works, especially considering they're basing this off the Matt Fraction
comics.
Yeah.
Another really good thing that you can see hearing aids in his Jeremy Renner's ears,
which is awesome.
And then for some reason it looked like Haley Steinfeld or Kate Bishop is kind of was trying
to take over the role of Ronan.
What's really funny is when like they, before Jeremy Renner like catches her and like takes
off the hood, they show like a shot of like her looking at like the bad guys.
And I'm sorry, you can't, you can, there's no denying that's Haley Steinfeld.
I feel when Jeremy Renner wore it, like you could like say, okay, that looks like Clint,
but like not.
You can totally tell that that's Kate, even though it's a mask.
Yeah.
Like she, she just has a very distinctive face.
I think it's the eyes.
The eyes.
Yeah.
For me, I just, I don't know, Haley Steinfeld's eyes are like really recognizable.
I mean, it's probably cause I have like one of the biggest, like when it comes to celebrity
crushes, she's like at the top for me.
Like I don't blame you one bit.
She's hot.
Yes, she is.
She's gorgeous.
Um, so, uh, her eyes, uh, just like are very vibrant, uh, to me.
So maybe Vic wasn't that far off about you.
Yeah, I guess.
Yeah.
Oh my gosh.
Dude, I loved how they, with this, like with what they did with this, uh, how they made,
um, things just kind of not go right for, for Hawkeye.
Yeah.
Poor Clint.
Like just, just these like random things.
And it's like the, uh, my favorite scene is when he's talking to, I'm assuming he's talking
to Laura, but then, or maybe his daughter or something like she wasn't in this was his
wife.
No, she wasn't.
Um, and so like many people are wondering, like, did, uh, um, Linda Cardellini not want
to come back.
Um, which I don't, I'd be very shocked.
I mean, I thought she, she's said before that she loves playing a Hawkeye's wife.
Hmm.
Maybe like a scheduling conflict or something.
That's a hard thing.
Or like maybe just because, uh, when they were filming this, like, I mean, COVID is
still a big thing, of course with the Delta variant.
Um, but I, she might've been not wanting to take the chance, even though I know, like,
of course they were taking the precautions, but she still just didn't want a chance that
I'm assuming maybe.
That's fair.
Yeah.
It just felt like he was talking to his daughter for a majority of the movie or the movie,
majority of the, the trailer.
The trailer.
He did, I, the only part that like, I'm, I'm assuming, uh, he's talking to his wife, um,
unless he calls his daughter, babe, I don't know.
Um, but there is a part where, uh, he's just like, like, uh, it's him and, uh, Kate and,
uh, I'm assuming it's might be Kate's apartment.
Um, and he's just like, Hey babe, I'll be, uh, I should be home in like a day or two.
And then one of the coolest scenes is, is like, Hey, hold on a second.
He punches a window out, grabs a Molotov cocktail that one of the goons throws it, throws through
the window and then just throws it back at them.
It's amazing.
I love it.
Dude, this, uh, this, this show is going to be epic.
It is just like everything.
Like I love the, um, the suit that Kate Bishop is wearing.
Like it's just like a basic purple jacket, but it, yeah, it just fits so well.
The behind the scenes shots.
I don't know why, like kind of made the suit look not so great, but emotion.
It looks fantastic.
I love it.
Yeah.
I, I absolutely agree with you on that one.
Um, I love that this is just like one of the, it just seems like there's nothing that's
going to go right in this.
Like, no, the, the, the fricking epic entrance that Kate Bishop was hoping to have, but she
just like collapses and Clint and he just kind of like rolls his eyes and just, like,
I feel like we're going to get a lot of just like, Oh, come on.
Oh yeah.
I agree.
And that's, I feel that's perfect for a Hawkeye.
Um, like it's just, it's, I think it'll be refreshing seeing a character where everything's
just kind of worked out for him.
This is true.
And where he's just like cool, calm, and just like, he's just the guy that everything kind
of just goes right for.
Like obviously there were some instances where it didn't really end up working out for him.
Like when he got thrown in jail and civil war or, you know, his family got snapped away.
Yeah.
But like everything else, like it's just what he was going for.
It's just like, just like super calm, like super chill.
And this just seems like he's trying to keep that going, but it's just not working out.
So I am super excited for this show.
My favorite part of this whole trailer is when they're driving in the car, trying to
escape from, I don't know who, but a fricking Clint's just like glowing through all of his
arrows, he's just like, uh, that one's too dangerous.
Definitely not this one.
And I love how Kay's just like, you don't have to say definitely like that.
Then she fricking shoots, she shoots, she, she, uh, you know, comes out the sun roof,
shoots the van and blows up and she's like, there are more, there are, uh, arrows more
dangerous than that one.
And Clint just gives like a smirk, like, uh, yeah, you kind of haven't seen anything yet,
kid.
Dude, you can tell that their chemistry is so amazing in this.
It's just like the comics and I love it so much.
I'm so grateful that Haley Steinfeld was cast as Kate Bishop.
To me, no one else can play this role than her.
She, she is going to be the perfect Kate Bishop.
Yeah.
And we already know Jeremy Renner's the perfect Clint Barton.
So that's already been proven.
Yeah.
Dude, one thing that came out of this trailer that I'm really excited for is Rogers the
musical.
Can that just be like a Disney plus extra?
Like, dude, I would just love that.
That would be amazing.
That would be so cool.
Oh my gosh.
Especially if we get like a good portion of it, just like, just write the rest of it.
Like just do it.
Wait, that would just be like such an out, like what's the word?
Like out there, like Disney plus edition that like people kind of have to see what it is.
Yeah, it's true.
Like, come on.
You can't tease us with like with a Rogers musical and not show us more.
Yeah, exactly.
Someone actually brought up a good point.
They're wondering if like, like all of those banners, like the post, like the giant poster
and all those banners were added in a post because they probably didn't want anyone to
actually see that when they were filming in New York City.
I could.
I would.
You think I could too?
I mean, if that's the case, they could have fooled me because those really did look like
they were there.
It didn't look CGI to me at all.
Yeah.
And you know, some dipshit would have freaking spoiled it.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
Because, you know, you got to love people in this world.
Yeah.
So if anything comes out of this trailer, I hope the Rogers musical happens for real.
Caleb's kind of put like Hawkeye to like the back, or like his second, like looking forward
to with this trailer.
It's more so now Rogers the musical.
Clint and Kate have kind of been pushed to the side for a minute.
Just for a minute.
But I am very excited for this series.
Can November 24th be here already?
Or is it November 25th?
I can't remember.
Dude, what?
That's another thing I'm interested in discussing.
Isn't Miss Marvel supposed to come out this year?
I don't know.
That's the like, it seems like it's not going to happen the more closer we get to the end
of the year.
Yeah.
Because I mean, unless they have two Marvel shows going at one time, but I mean, that
would be a first because I haven't done that yet.
But even if you like I was thinking for a second, because this is supposed to have six
episodes.
If it takes place like the ass end of November, unless they release the first two episodes
and then give us three, four, five and six, then that would put us at the end of December.
Wait, so you said six episodes, right?
Yes.
So if they do six episodes, it wouldn't finish until the 29th.
December 29th would be the last.
Yeah.
So unless they seriously released Miss Marvel on your birthday, there's no way in hell that
we're getting Miss Marvel this year.
Unless they release two, unless they have like a week or two where we have double.
Yeah, I just don't know if Disney wants to do that.
Like take attention away from either show.
And I know like they're strictly sticking with Disney Plus Originals premiering new
episodes on Wednesdays.
That's the new norm for them.
I don't hate that because I have Wednesdays off now.
Yeah, I don't either.
Because I mean, honestly, like that kind of like works out perfectly.
Because like if I mean, if we ever do get to the point where we want to like discuss
these episodes, like any episode from any show, like literally me and Caleb can watch
like the episode like right before we start filming on a Wednesday and then talk about
it if we wanted to.
Yeah, exactly.
Anyway, I'm going to assume that you're at a 10 with excitement level.
Damn right.
Yeah, I'm pretty up there too.
I'm like an eight.
Hell yeah.
I'm at a nine for the Rogers musical though.
Oh shit.
I'll give you know what?
I'll be at a nine for that.
There we go.
Shit.
Oh shit.
All right.
So unless you want to talk about anything else with these trailers, what do you say
we move on to our headliner of the evening?
Let's do it.
All right, so for this week's headliner, we'll be talking about the film starring Jason Seagal,
Dakota Johnson and Casey Affleck, which is our friend.
If you guys want to watch this movie, it is available or it's available to watch right
now on Prime Video.
What I hate about this movie, this is the only thing I hate about this movie, spoiler
alert, is this did not get a Blu-ray release.
It only got a DVD release.
So if I want to buy this movie physical, I have to buy the DVD.
I'm kind of pissed off.
It's going to get a Blu-ray release one day.
I hope so.
Even though you know what sucks?
This is considered a box office bomb.
What?
Yeah, dude.
Oh, I mean, I can understand why you should see how much unfortunately the box office was,
which kills me.
When did this movie got released?
Twenty twenty, didn't it?
Oh, yeah, shit, it did.
That's why.
OK, yeah.
So initially, it premiered at the Tiff Film Festival September 6th, 2019, but it didn't
have its actual widespread release in the US until January 22nd of this year.
And with a budget of 10 million, it unfortunately only made six hundred and ninety nine thousand
four hundred and fifty two dollars.
That is absolute horse shit.
It is.
Like I feel you can't really bank or you can't really judge that movie, this movie for that,
because people were still people are still fearful of going and going to the theaters.
Yeah, this.
This is going to be a big spoiler for this this this breakdown.
Yeah.
But this was an incredible movie.
Yes.
And that took me and you by surprise.
Yeah.
This is definitely a not like, you know, like laugh, laugh a minute.
What's the word like feel good kind of movie?
No, this is a I mean, I guess it can make you I don't know if I would say it's a feel
good movie.
It is a punch you in the gut with the realities of life.
Yeah, straight up.
So if you don't want to bawl your eyes out, maybe don't watch this movie.
But at the same time, I want to recommend this movie to anyone that I can because this
movie is remarkable.
Yeah, I absolutely agree with you.
I no joke, I started crying the exactly six minutes into the movie and that was like and
that's less than five minutes into the overall film because the intro was like frickin ridiculously
long.
Yeah.
But once it got into the movie, it was like less than five minutes and it already got
me tearing up.
And this movie got me to ugly cry, which I don't think a movie has ever been able to
do to me, including I am including Avengers Endgame.
For Caleb, that's saying a lot.
Yeah, like, okay.
With Avengers Endgame, I did tear up.
I did have tears running down my face, but I was not like, ugly crying.
This movie got me ugly crying.
Same here.
It has been a while since I've had to wipe my tears away that much in a movie.
Dude, literally, I was like the same with you like six minutes in for how much I was
crying.
I'm just like, you know what, since I'm watching this on my phone, screw my glasses.
I'm just going to leave them off.
I already know it's just going to get worse.
Like, what's the point?
Oh my gosh.
Yeah.
And I was already an emotional wreck before I started the movie.
I'm sorry, man.
But yeah, oh my gosh.
It hits you in the feels.
So if you have not seen this movie, do not, don't listen to this breakdown.
Go watch the movie first, come back and hear our review, but don't, don't, don't ruin it.
Yeah.
Experience this wonderful film, please.
Yeah, please.
But that being said, if you are new to our breakdown system, I was like, can we move
on to that before I start tearing up?
I'm just talking about it.
Yeah.
If you're new to our breakdown system, we have split movies into eight different categories
that we individually score to come to a final Albrows letter grade.
The eight categories that we score are story, writing, acting, character development, effects,
music, costumes, and then we give our own personal grade at the very end.
Then all of that math gets added up, thrown into our magic algorithm, and then it gives
us our own, our score, our final score, which we'll discuss at the end.
So without further ado, Rose is about to spoil the entire damn movie for you by reading off
the synopsis, Reading with Rose.
Yes.
So hold onto your hats, ladies and gentlemen.
It is a ride.
I already know one part I'm going to screw up, Dane's last name.
I don't even, I didn't even know he had a last name.
I didn't either.
So this is going to be fun.
All right.
In the winter of 2013, Matt and Nicole Teague prepared to tell their daughters, Molly and
Evie that Nicole's ovarian cancer is terminal.
Outside their best friend, Dane Faustcheks, that's how I'm going to pronounce it.
I feel bad for not knowing how to pronounce it, but Dane Faustcheks keeps the children
company.
In a flashback to 2000, Matt, a journalist, and Nicole, a theater performer, live in New
Orleans.
She introduces Matt to Dane, a friend from college working as a camera operator who dreams
of becoming a standup comic.
The three become close over the years.
In 2008, Matt and Nicole reside in Fairhope with their daughters.
Matt works as a war correspondent and spends months overseas putting a strain on the family.
Meanwhile, Dane remains in New Orleans working dead end jobs.
On Thanksgiving, Dane, unhappy with his life, decides to backpack at the Grand Canyon without
telling anyone where he is going.
Another backpacker recognizes his potential suicidal behavior and offers support.
Her gesture of kindness, plus an unexpected voicemail from the Teague family, renews Dane's
will to live.
In 2010, Matt discovers that Nicole had an affair.
With Dane's help, they reconcile their relationship.
Dane returns home where he works as a manager at a sporting goods store and begins dating
a woman named Kat.
In September 2012, Nicole receives her diagnosis and begins to undergo chemotherapy.
Recognizing their need for help, Dane offers to stay with them for a few weeks.
However, as Nicole's condition worsens, Dane decides to remain with them, taking on many
household duties.
Kat struggles to understand Dane's loyalty to the Teague family after weeks turn into
months and they break up.
On Christmas, Nicole ruptures her abdomen and Dane is left to watch over the girls.
Following her surgery, the doctor reveals to Matt that Nicole's cancer has spread and
gives her approximately six months to live.
Nicole decides that she does not want to tell their daughters until her quality of life
declines significantly.
Nicole prepares a bucket list which Matt and Dane help her accomplish, such as sitting
as grand marshal of the Mardi Gras parade, swimming in a historic fountain with all of
her friends, and writing letters to her daughters for future life events.
As 2013 closes and Nicole becomes sicker, they decide to tell their daughters and Dane
listens on in sorrow as the girls cry.
By the summer of 2014, Nicole becomes increasingly irritable, hallucinates, and experiences pain.
Realizing that Matt is overwhelmed, Dane takes him hiking.
Upon their return, Matt realizes that they are no longer equipped to care for Nicole,
so he calls a hospice nurse, Faith Pruitt.
Nicole's friends and family visit with her one last time.
One night, Faith alerts them of Nicole's slowing heart rate and they take her to the beach
to watch one final sunrise.
Returning home, Nicole dies with Matt and Dane at her side.
Following Nicole's funeral, Dane confines himself to his room and grieves alone.
Matt writes an article called The Friend, which he gives to Dane.
Dane finally decides to go home after putting his life on hold to live with the Teague family
for over 14 months.
Matt embraces Dane, expressing that simply saying thank you isn't enough.
In the epilogue, it is revealed that Matt's article won an award in a Squire magazine
and that he and his daughters remain in fair hope.
Dane remains close to the Teague family and married in 2019.
Our mood is set for the folded
And exemple
turn up yeah so the synopsis is a little bit deceiving it does not so the movie
isn't as a to be as that was yes it starts a lot of jumping around yes it
does a lot of that which I was okay with I agree so this is kind of the the
situation that I feel we had with with shang chi last week we had a lot of
giving us like this taking us from point a to point B while giving us some good
giving us the the backstory as we went along from when it was important to to
know yes like for example they there was like this whole thing where Matt and
Dane were talking and he's just like whoa wait do her parents know about the
affair and then they did like a cutscene back where he Matt is like learns about
the affair so for like a good portion of the movie we think that the affair was
Matt or at least I thought it was Matt no I did too but then it just kind of
goes to show that it was um oh shit what was her name uh Nicole Nicole yeah that
was Nicole what that was the one that had the the affair and that they were
able to work through it and all that so I loved like that and so it's just
something that I really like I said with shang chi I really appreciated that
storytelling and this is just like took that and I feel amplified it yeah
because I mean you never feel lost for how much it jumps around because it will
clearly say like the month and the year and then it will also actually say like
you know like two years before diagnosis you know like it really points you in the
direction that they want you to see the story from so you you never at least to
me you never feel like the story is like jumping around too much that you're
getting confused yeah and something that really like drew me towards this movie
because we have to give credit where credits do Brielle was the one that
recommended this movie to us she did thank you Brielle and she she like she
showed me the trailer for it and just from the trailer alone I was just like
that feels exactly like me and Rose and so when I was watching it I was kind of
watching it from that perspective which I think is why I started ugly crying
yeah same here and what's interesting is like um like this storyline like is like
kind of the way the the friendship started is like opposite from ours but
like it still works like I met Caleb first became good friends with him and
then I met Brielle when they got together and then I became good friends
with her whereas with this movie Dane meets Nicole first they become good
friends and then as Nicole starts to date um oh my god what is his name Matt
Dane and Matt become close friends as well well Matt are they were actually
married already oh yeah that's true and then Dane and then Dane asked her out
yep that's got that's good it's like hey you know like flashing your wedding
ring I'm married I would feel honestly like so stupid I don't know if I would
say I mean would you feel stupid if you didn't notice them wearing wearing a
wedding ring yeah okay all right good I'm not the only one here but I loved
that like what kind of once once Matt's and Dane's friendship took off that's
kind of when it started feeling like us yeah no it cuz they're honestly assholes
to each other in a good way as much as we are to each other yeah one of the
scenes I really appreciated so Matt go like he was kind of like what was a war
journalist or something like that yes yeah so he's off doing his own thing and
he comes back home and he's home for like four days and then he has to take
off to Libya and he's kind of comes home with a really negative attitude and
starts like getting on his kids and scolding them and basically just having
like a real nasty attitude and Dane pulls him aside and he's just like dude
you're being a real prick and telling him like hey you you shouldn't take that
job yeah like you you need to be here with your family and basically just
calling him out on his shit and like that's where I felt I'm like that's
that's I feel like that's me and Rose like we're able to call each other out
on our shit I mean what's what's crazy about that scene is that the when you
know you doing the name-calling the F use like they start as like joking but
then once they get to the end of the conversation like they actually and they
do kind of mean it just because of how Matt is really not taking Dane
seriously and he's kind of kind of pissed about that so like the fine I
can't remember who said the final F you I think it was Dane okay that one
definitely felt like genuine not not jokingly yeah which I'm luckily for us I
don't I don't feel like we've ever gotten to that point no we haven't and
I mean I really hope we never do no I doubt it like I feel like both of us
were really open to taking criticisms like that oh yeah absolutely like
especially when it comes to to that kind of shit where it's just like oh you've
had like a real you're being a real bitch yeah which thankfully neither of
us have been that or at least I don't think man I think you I think you've
called me out a couple times I have yeah oh I'm sorry it is very humbling to hear
that from your your best friend and it's kind of like you don't want to hear it's
kind of like like when yeah when I heard it from from you it was kind of like
hearing it from my brother yeah and my when I hear shit like that for my
brother's being like you're being a real asshole I'm like screw you man like your
first instinct is just to go and attack and I feel I I think we weren't quite at
that bro point yet when you called me out and I think that's just something
that elevated us to that point a lot faster I feel bad that like I'm not
remembering any of these points it was just for something you think of anything
specific I I couldn't tell you what we were what I was doing or what I was
bitching about but you were just like yeah I don't I can't remember for the
life of me I just remember kind of getting taken aback when you're just
like yeah and I mean it this time yeah like I think I think we were just
driving and I was bitching about something and you're just like kind of
sounds like you were wrong and I'm like kind of like was like yo what um yeah
Rose what the fuck you're supposed to be on my side yeah so I really really liked
seeing that scene were there any other other scenes that like that stood out to
you um I mean if you're okay with me getting like super dark here I want to
talk about one if that's okay yeah go ahead okay um so I mean I don't know if
you guys noticed or like I kind of have to like say excuse me when I was reading
off the plot but there is a part where towards the beginning Dane does he
decides to go hiking kind of clear his head and then he runs into this other
hiker and she's just like hey you know like you should come hike with me he's
just like no you know I'd rather just do a solo she's like come on you know I
could really use the company and so you know they spend I don't know if it's
just a day or a couple days together but that night she like comes over with
dinner and she's just like you know the reason why I asked you to come hiking
with me is because I was kind of in your same shoes a year ago I came out here to
take my own life and you know she talked about how you know like her husband and
I think it was her daughter wasn't it that a made her like push on yeah um and
then so like they have a really nice discussion and then it cuts to Dane
going into the car and realizing that a Matt had called and it's a very sweet
voicemail from Matt Nicole and their two kids and just I I cried the hardest
probably at that point just because you know I would react the like same if I
got like you know like a voicemail from like Caleb real and Iris or you know
like anyone that I loved but just you know I'm not trying to sound dark here
but you know like those those those thoughts do under your head they have
entered my head and it sucks I'm sorry to get dark on this episode I'm really
sorry but okay of it does that scene really stuck out to me in the way that
like after he listens to that voicemail and he just he just breaks down in his
car and just just finally has a good cry and just realizes that you know like
these people are what make life worth living and he needs to stick around just
to make sure that this family is going to be okay and it seems like that just
the relation the relationship between these three characters that just make
this story so incredible and really emotional um so yeah darkness over so I
think something that I really liked about this is I I went into it watching
it from Matt's perspective the the guy whose wife was chronically ill and I can
really relate to that because my not getting into her personal stuff but my
wife she's not chronically ill but she's does have chronic pain and just suffers
through through that and so I kind of have an idea of what what he was going
through like a small idea like I couldn't imagine it what Brielle was
going through being terminal at any point yeah but I knew that that's the
perspective I was watching it from because he has his his kids and his wife
and and then I had an idea that you were gonna watch this from from Dane's
perspective yeah I did no my god that hit me like a freaking like freight
train because it's exactly how it would be with us yeah but like Caleb said
thankfully thank God Brielle is not like that and I pray that she never gets to
that point but we have talked about this kind of stuff and like honestly a lot of
it would play out how this movie is just cuz you know when when you're as good of
friends as you know as close of brothers as you know Caleb and I are when it
comes to and you know like especially how close me and Brielle are now as
friends since I've gotten the knower I would literally drop anything to make
sure that Caleb Brielle and my niece Iris we're going to be okay and just do
anything that I could to get them through a hard time yeah and it goes the
other way around I would drop everything to come out
she rose out I appreciate that thank you but taking a very deep turn with this
episode we are holy shit well I mean this is a this is a deep movie man it is
both dead it made us ugly cry yeah like one of the I think one of the things that
stood out to me was when when he when Dane and Matt were at the hospital I
think this was after her diagnosis or her initial diagnosis and he or Dane
was saying that he could stick around and help with the kids and and
everything and I like you I could see on Matt's face like the initial reaction
of and it was it's something that like I I feel I would have done too like if
almost feel him being like no that's okay you don't have to do that but you
could just tell that the everything was weighing on his heart so heavily that
he's just like yeah we'd we'd really like that yeah it's like how Dane
points out that in that kind of situation no one can handle that alone
it's too much for one person yeah now you I cannot imagine doing anything like
that without without Rose which like like we've said hopefully we never have
to but pray I think this movie does a lot in prepping for that if it ever does
yeah because what was it in the so the letter that Matt writes to or the story
that Matt writes to a Dane it's called he calls the friend right yeah I don't
know if you noticed towards the ending what he points out but he points out
like the truth about someone you love dying and he says it's one man's collapse
and another man's refusal to let it happen like damn that's it's true yeah
oh it absolutely is like do one thing that really got me was when they when he
finally called the the hospice nurse and she goes she goes into Nicole's room and
kind of sees how she she's acting and then comes back into Dane and Matt who
are just like sitting at the couch and they like she asked them like how long
has she been like this and he's just like oh well her diagnosis and she's
like no like like this and he says oh she's been like unrecognizable for like
four months and you could I think this just goes to show how good of an actor
Casey and Jason were which we'll get into but you could just see just how hard
they were just hit with this yeah and even the the nurse was just like oh my
gosh like you guys have been dealing with this for a really long time yeah I
don't think I could ever be a hospice nurse it would be too much too emotional
because I feel I mean unfortunately you know the time that you spend with these
patients is not long but I would feel that you would get emotionally attached
probably very quickly and so having to be one of the last people to watch them
take their last breath would freaking kill me I don't even I honestly I don't
think that's the worst part of it what do you think I feel the worst part of
being a hospice nurse like that would be with the family because ever like yeah
I think you're right every case would be so unique and so just so different and
so you the hospice nurse like I feel like taking care of the the patient it
would be the easy part that yeah that is a very good point like you just need to
make sure that they have their medicine and they have all this stuff that they
need but you're you're not you're you're doing like your job is to take all of
these physical tasks away from the family that is dealing with this grief
and I think with how differently everyone like handles grief like that
would be very difficult to to deal with yeah I can absolutely agree with you
yeah but I just loved how throughout the whole movie it was just Matt and Dane
kind of becoming like partners in in this and like there were times where
where Dane was sending Matt out to go pick stuff up from the store or telling
him that he needs to like leave or like walk away from something because like
Nicole was just like losing her mind they like they took her phone away
because she was posting nasty things on social media and she was basically just
ripping them a new ass over it yeah and you Matt was getting worked up and so
Dane's guy kind of got in the middle and just like looks around in that human
shield and told him to like back off like you need to go and then she's like
yelling in his face cussing at him saying like I hate you and he's just
like yeah yeah I I know I know and like he's like you hate me I'm sorry yeah
that that would that'd be so hard yeah yeah anything else story-wise that that
hits you because I think we just I think we could both say that we just had a
real emotional hit with this movie yeah no we absolutely did so yeah I don't
think I really have anything else to say about the story yeah well collectively
we end up giving it a 95 which I think is well earned absolutely no doubt about
that yeah moving on over to writing we're sitting at a 95.5 so just slightly
higher than than the the overall story I think for me a lot of this movie it was
the stuff that wasn't said and like the way that they organized the the script
or the story to be told that really I know I absolutely just excelled it and
everything felt like a natural conversation like nothing feel felt like
out of place or just like overly dramatized it didn't um I think like
especially one scene that I can think of is when Matt goes to pick up his kids
and that's the oldest daughter which I think is Molly isn't Molly the oldest
yes okay um like he goes to pick her up from school and like I forget what
brings up her mother but she's just like he's just like I know you hate me or
something like that and she's just like no I hate that I'm gonna be stuck with
you after she passes away and I mean I throughout the movie you can definitely
tell that Molly does have a closer relationship with her mom but just I
didn't expect Molly to blow up like that on Matt but it made sense I can
completely understand the you know the writing for that scene and it didn't
feel like it didn't like feel like it came out of nowhere yeah I agree one
thing that I really liked about that scene in particular too is how how Matt
was able to say like you're not angry that I'm 15 minutes picking like 15
minutes late picking you up from school you're upset about what's going on with
your mom and you're taking it out on me and then she like she yells that at him
and I think this was like a very a really smart way to show that he
understood what was happening with her but while he was dry like while they
were driving home it was just complete silence and he was like tearing up now
you see you see him take off his glasses and wipe away some tears it's really
really sad yeah cuz it like as much as you can say like oh I know what's
happening here like I know what you're doing I know you're not really angry at
me it still freaking sucks to hear shit like that oh yeah no it absolutely does
yeah like you can justify it to yourself all day like oh that's just teenage
angst and bitchiness coming out over something that she can't control and
she's just trying to make someone hurt like she is but I think in your mind
you're just like like that like freaking mission accomplished like like it almost be
like I know you're just trying to hurt my feelings so good job I didn't think
we would actually laugh during this breakdown so good job Caleb like you
have to no no I absolutely agree but yeah it's just it's so if the writing in
particular it was just that everything felt real everything like nothing felt
too much and I feel like they could have gone that way so many times like when
they were at dinner with all like they had like a flashback to where they were
having dinner with like a bunch of friends of theirs but Dane wasn't there
because he was in New Orleans and their friends were asking like oh like have
you heard about Dane and they were just kind of like making fun of him like
well he wasn't there being like oh he's in this dead-end job still lives with his
parents like oh how could you deal with that and like you can say all day that
you would be like like oh screw you man like he's our like our best friend but
all of them are friends at that time yeah and so like they've all everyone
says like the hardest people to stand up to are your friends and I think they did
a really good job being like no like we loved having him like he was great I know
I absolutely agree and I love that in that scene like for the most part Matt
stays quiet and you can tell that like them saying all this shit about Dane is
like starting to get to him to it gets to the point where he actually just
stands up and leaves yeah which unfortunately like I feel like I've been
in that situation a lot like I fit I was like wait no talking shit about me like
no well yes and no like my what no no sorry like with my I hate to throw
anyone on the bus but with my family one of the things I got made like they would
poke fun at a lot was our relationship like okay like going around and being
like just making like very homosexual homophobic comments about like our
relationship and like how just how close we are and just I mean I don't to me you
were like one of the most straightest guys I've ever met no that's not that's
not the point no no is that they like they were they were using those jokes to
try and offend or get a rise out of me yeah and like would make and any time
that I would get irritated and just be like hey shut up like that's not funny
or any comment like that they're just like oh it's just joke like you don't
have to take it so seriously and when people say that yeah or like oh I don't
know why you're mad if you don't if it's not true like if you're getting pissed
off it must be like there must be some truth like no like shut the hell up yeah
like you're making fun of my friend yeah like that's what's pissing me off it's
not the like you guys thinking were in some sort of like romantic relationship
like you can think like you could think that all you want but it's just the fact
that you're using that to make fun of like my best friend and it's almost like
I like yeah I never said anything like I would like make comments be like that's
not funny or just like to be quiet but I never got the courage to be like to
bitch him out about it yeah well guys you heard it here first
according to the Caleo's family we're in our romantic relationship we are both
gay first even even we didn't know yeah that's gonna be awkward to tell Brielle
this is how she finds out imagine this is the one episode that she listens to
funny would that be but it's just it's shit like that like they could have
written that very differently made it so like big and such a big deal like he's
our friend like you don't talk to him like about him like that but they didn't
they keep they kept it very like collect like very real very ground yeah no I I
really appreciated that there really was no point in this movie that I felt okay
I feel in real life no one is going to go that far out of their way to say that
certain thing yeah like like that scene with the with the hiker it wasn't
something that she came immediately and was just like hey I noticed this about
you and it's very like alarming behavior she was like she sat there and she said
like she came over and trying to made it very natural like a very natural
conversation she did didn't she say she was watching for a couple days yeah that
they were hiking and she's like oh I've seen you've been hiking here a couple
days and just like concerned yeah which you know I I can completely understand
her concern from what I've seen a lot of people do unfortunately if they do have
plans to take their own life they will that is definitely an option for them
they will go hiking alone and they will try to find the tallest ledge that they
can find and unfortunately take the plunge so she is a remarkable person for
talking to Dane when it comes to that situation yeah and I think that can be
tough to bring up to to a stranger and it was that I mean like sorry oh sorry go
ahead no you're good no I mean I was just gonna say like even I feel like
sometimes depression and suicide is hard to bring up to your closest friends like
god this is like getting a really person upset me and Caleb have talked about
this kind of stuff and I you know I'll fully admit I was a little hesitant at
the beginning you know talking about this kind of stuff but you know like
once you get into talking about it you you see that they understand and you
know they're going through you know shit as well you know it makes you realize
you know like why did I wait this long to actually talk to someone and
especially my best friend yeah exactly yeah that's it's just like such a taboo
subject when it doesn't need to be yeah no no I absolutely agree like honestly
if anyone wanted to like message me about you know depression thoughts of
suicide please I am open ears I will gladly listen to anyone this is like
turning into a PSA yeah a little bit yeah sorry hit us up on our on our
social media this isn't just some plug yeah it's just the best way for anyone
to communicate or to get our contact info hit us up like we respond to damn
near everyone that messages us or we try to at least sometimes we don't we don't
we don't hit up those those spam pod yeah exactly if we know you're a real
person we will absolutely respond to you but if you're just so like oh if you do
you want to grow your podcast on YouTube this is what you can do yeah we ain't
gonna we ain't responding to you yeah but I think at 95.5 is really good gives
it just that slight edge above the story which was already perfection yeah
exactly yeah the only thing that I feel either of those got docked for was just
because maybe the story could have was it a little confusing to follow sometimes
see yeah I could definitely agree with that like honestly if they um like say
they took out like the like how the synopsis was yeah like if they actually
took out the words oh yeah I'd be hella confused like wait what year is this
yeah like if they would have put it in chronological order I think that would
have been a tad better but I like I said with with shang chi it it is a little
confusing to follow but not so much that it's distracting yes yeah all right
moving on over to acting we both actually ended up giving this in 96 hell
yeah so like you like you said the three the three main actors were Dakota
Johnson Casey Affleck and Jason Seagal I always saw when I say see you go but I
know it's the call I can't be the only one right yeah honestly the only reason
that I docked at all was because of the kids I think the kids could mean like
they just felt very like almost reading a script like very high school play
that's fair um yeah I can definitely I mean I feel we definitely got a lot more
emotion from Molly right you can say that because she is the older sibling
Evie was kind of just there in a way up until the point where they do actually
tell their kids that Nicole has ovarian cancer yeah dude after this movie I was
thinking about how how to go about telling your young children that their
other that their other parent has a terminal disease and I'm like the only
like I feel like the only way to do it is what he did yeah you would think that
like oh he you know he was way too blunt about it you know just he didn't handle
it well no even like I'm not a parent but I feel he handled it very well yeah
so she had like a list of phrases or things to avoid like oh mommy's going
away for a while mommy's going on vacation like the way that she said they
yeah yeah exactly and she was saying we basically need to rip all hope from them
yeah like no no no windows or doors like left open because if you say oh mommy's
going away for a while oh where is she going where is she coming back like all
these other questions but like you just need to freaking like sucker punch them
with this information and he's just like we like the way that he said it he's
just like we've been going to the doctor the and like we've been getting some
information from the doctor and we told you that we would let you guys know or
let you in when we when new things came up and let kind of keep you in the loop
a little bit but the doctor said mommy's going to die and like honestly I I think
he like you said and I said he handled it very very well because like you said
the whole oh mommy's going away they would ask you know like oh where how
long is she going to be and the point like you say oh she's gonna be gone for
this long and then you know their mom's gone and for passed away like two months
and they're just like oh so when's mommy coming home couple more months honey
couple more months and just I would never want to see a parent have to drag
it on for so long that they run out of excuses and the kid gets to the point
where it's like why didn't you tell me when she actually did pass away to where
I could have actually gotten a proper goodbye yeah so I think that that was
definitely like a highlight of those girls performance yes so that if saying
that they were the the worst actors in this movie is not a disservice to them at
all no yeah not one bit had I been grading them I would have put them in
the high 80s yeah I can yeah I can definitely agree with that yeah so like
I said we gave the acting in 96 out who did you like all right top or your three
number one definitely Jason Seagal his performance was incredible this is I
think this is his best performance to date in any movie I've seen him in then
Casey Affleck he was just as good the way they had such good on-screen
chemistry together you really believed that they were really good friends he
believed all three of them were really good friends it never felt like oh you
know like they're just pretending to be friends no it felt like a real
friendship and then third and this is no disservice to her because she's
incredible in this film Dakota Johnson agreed
mine's a little different actually I think mine's just like complete opposite
oh well wait you gave Casey Affleck to yes okay no then not exactly opposite I've
put Dakota Johnson on top I think I've I haven't seen a movie seen her in a movie
that I've just been enthralled by her performance like this movie well I mean
the only other movie I've seen her in is 50 Shades of Grey I'm sorry I'm sorry I
that's the only other movie I've seen her in and you know I'll fully admit when
it comes to like her acting in that movie she does the best with what she's
giving given it's not her acting that's the promise the writing in that movie
and this movie just proves that if she's given a really good writing she can give
an amazing performance yeah oh my gosh she did so good in this like I the
reason I ended up giving them a 96 was because I was given her the top 100 and
then number two I was given to Jason Seagal who I also gave like a hundred
and then Casey Affleck I dropped a couple points down to like 98 just
cuz I wasn't completely sold on his performance at the beginning but it did
end up growing on me no that's completely understandable yeah and then
yeah so what ended up bringing it down to 96 was was definitely the extras I'll
give I'll give Casey Affleck this though that scene where he's in the garage and
that one guy comes in and he's just like man Dane's still living with the guys
are you charging him rent like what the hell why is he still living with you and
he's just like dude he's help you know he's helping around the house and you
know whatnot and he's just like man dude I just can't believe he's still like
pulling that bullshit with you and I love how Matt is just like you know what
if you still weren't dating I think was Charlotte if you still weren't dating
Charlotte I'd punch you right in the face right now because I actually like
Charlotte but I hate you he just said it so bluntly but I loved it it was just
perfect yeah like dude I loved how they were just kind of like hinting towards
like kind of the like Natalie losing her mind or kind of becoming psychotic yeah
because they started off with taking her credit cards because she kept ordering
Amazon packages of just like random shit yeah and then they took away her phone
because she was like sending nasty messages to her Facebook friends or just
like her friends in general and yeah so yeah that scene was freaking amazing I'm
just like yeah freaking I would punch him in the throat as would I yeah so I
think 96 well-earned absolutely yeah absolutely I'm moving on over to
character development this one was fun too I I did my character development
based off of who I watched this movie from the perspective of which was Matt
and you said you did it from Dane right yes yeah so we can kind of just go in
like each go into the dive of what who we thought like what their arc was okay
yeah um who do you want to start um yeah I'll start because I think you
definitely got the better fit to no I feel bad no so yeah so I got I'm I based
mine off of Matt who was the husband who was kind of dealing with with all this
and so you kind of see him start off as someone that wasn't too social very work
oriented and he kind of goes through this whole story at least the beginning
portions of it doing that like he's gone all the time and it's just made him very
bitter I feel and he's like so he kind of takes from with the advice from Dane
to kind of take that step back from his professional life to focus more on his
personal and through that helps grow a relationship with his his daughters and
his wife helps improve all of that and then kind of helps prepare the family
for this already difficult time had he still been doing all of his his work
stuff and being gone all the time I don't think that the family could have
survived what it went through oh no absolutely agree so I really liked
seeing that growth and it felt very natural and true to character like there
was nothing in this like absolutely nothing that felt out of character for
him and one thing that really stood out is he had the opportunity like a clear
opportunity to have an affair while he was out on his on business and we got to
see his character come into play when he turned it down his co-worker was very
like insistent like they got in an elevator together and she was just like
oh what floor you on and he's like oh I'm on six and she's like I'm on four and
so she pushes the four and not the six and so he's just like kind of like
picking up what she's putting down and you could see that yes it has been like
a very long trip but he's not the type of person to go and do that which really
just shows how good of a guy he is like honestly that uh that scene was kind of
I know this would never happen in the movie but she's just like oh so you know
I'm alone in my room when she's getting on the elevator I want him to be like
bitch I'm married like just show just flash in his ring yeah well she knew she
freaking talked to his wife in the in the truck oh yeah that's true yeah I was
just like you bitch just about like mm-hmm just pointing to the ring on his
finger yeah and you could see that there he was struggling with like temptation
which things weren't super great with his wife at the time so I think that just
stands that just shows tons of character yeah like a strong discipline no I
absolutely agree yeah which kind of made it suck when it do we realize that he's
the one that got cheated on yeah I was Nicole that uh had the affair yeah that
definitely took me by surprise my what yeah but I really really enjoyed and I
think that they did it so well just crafted this character and it's based
off of true story so it is you know like they just took what this man went
through and was able to show us like a very clear arc and I think it worked
amazingly well for this movie so I think it was very well crafted the issues that
I have are just very minor gripes here and there like sometimes it just plateaus
for a little too long I feel before we see another like boost in his
development but not fair overall I think it was is pretty solid so I ended up
so I ended up giving it a 92 so I like Caleb said we each did opposite so I did
my character development from the perspective of Dane who starts off as a
guy who's just working on working like backstage stage crew of some of the
plays that Nicole is in and then he talks about how he wants to be a stand-up
comedian and then during all of this this is when he actually like really
gets to know he I mean he already knows Nicole pretty well this is when he
starts to get to know Matt more because there's a part where Nicole's like
saying oh you know you should to Matt you know you should come see my play
tonight and he's just like yeah but I'm not gonna know anyone there and is that
guy the guy that asked you out even though you're married is is Dane gonna
be there but it's just funny that like they actually during this event they
actually like sit at a table together and like Dane actually apologizes for it
and he's like he kind of like brushes it off but then you know from then just the
friendship just grows and grows and so it comes to the point that like Dane is
just like working dead he's working dead end jobs but also staying in close
contact with Matt and Nicole and of course helping them with their daughters
when he can but then once the diagnosis comes in that's when Dane really starts
to step up and you know tells Matt straight up you know you don't have to
deal with this alone I'm more than happy to help to where he decides to stay he
weeks turn into months and then you see that that affects his like personal life
because it's affecting his personal relationships one person one I forget
her name just straight it breaks up with him he's been dating for a while because
she doesn't understand why he cares so much about this family that he's willing
to basically abandon his life just to help them out because of the situation
that they're in but thankfully he meets a better girl yeah I think what's
difficult for people to understand is when you do all that to help someone
that isn't blood yeah like I think it makes sense if he was like going to
help his brother or going to help I don't know like his parents or something
and kind of dropped everything to go help them I think it's easier for people
to swallow but hearing that you abandon all of this stuff because of a friend
like it's almost like they don't it's harder for people to value the
relationship or the friendships then then family relationships no no I
absolutely agree I mean I of course understand where he's coming from
yeah but I can understand why you know like I get it how some people see it
differently but like overall it's it's you know like seeing Dane just basically
he gives up his life just to make sure that this family is going to be okay and
just just showcasing how like the definition to me of a true friend just
making sure that this family is going to be okay that they're gonna get through
this tough time and throughout it you see his struggles you can definitely
tell that this is hitting him just as hard as it is Matt and the two girls if
I had anything to like really criticize about it's it's actually with what's his
that girlfriend what's her name cat that he starts dating I think it was cat um
so you know how like they start like video chatting and he's just like hey
you know like I think it's gonna turn into weight okay so he says like oh I
think it's gonna turn into a month or so on so forth and she's like oh you know I
understand you know and like wasn't it like after that we really didn't get
anything else from her like it was kind of that but then isn't there a scene
where he actually like does go back and like gets all of his stuff from her
apartment as or was that the other girl we hear about that one okay so I think
yeah so he starts dating this this girl cat I think cats the one where that
dumps him okay because I think it starts off with cat um saying oh like cuz
they're video chatting and he's they're like okay how long do you think you're
gonna be there he's just like oh a few weeks maybe a month at most and then
that turns into like months upon months yeah and then that's I think that's where
she kind of gets aggravated with with him and his choices okay never mind I
don't really think I have that really like bad things to say about the care
development like honestly just probably like nitpicks but it's really nothing
yeah well that shows in your your score because you ended up giving it at 98 I
did yeah I think Dane had such an incredible character arc throughout this
movie and he gets I love that he does get a happy ending towards the end like
he you know gets to go huh and like yeah it doesn't feel like he's abandoning Matt
at all at least to me it doesn't um did you feel like it he was or no not at all
like I think it's just he needed to go live his life yeah and he he knew that
that Matt was gonna be okay and you could tell that Matt wasn't just saying
like yeah we're gonna like oh yeah we're gonna be okay just to say it like you
could tell that he really put some thought into it and he's like yeah like
we'll be you'll we'll be good yeah and that was just kind of like
confirmation that that he day needed to to go back and kind of pick up his life
yeah no no no yeah I absolutely agree see overall I great character
development great story arc so I loved it yeah um alright so character
development averaged out to a 95 it's not bad yeah moving on over to effects
with this movie there wasn't anything like special effects or anything so
we're just gonna count like anything that was like practical like I I put in
Nicole's like her makeup yes I did as well yeah any cinematography from there
the biggest thing that I did was her her makeup because I think throughout they
were they did really good it kind of bouncing back and forth between different
hairstyles painting like showing how pale she was yeah the the whole what they
were able to do with the makeup department when it came to those kind of
scenes is incredible because I'm getting serious again here my mom actually
survived stage four ovarian cancer and so I actually related related a lot to
how I saw what Nicole looked like I remember my mom wearing those types of
hats after she went through chemotherapy and just just watching like like Caleb
said like the paleness they did an amazing job and that is definitely
something that you see so just I don't know what else to say
yeah it's kind of difficult to find things to talk about with this it is
cinematography wise it was really well done like I think they one thing that
they did really well is whenever they were having a serious conversation like
when the doctor was talking to Matt about the diagnosis and saying how long
she has left to live when she when he was talking about everything that was
going on you it was cutting to like a random areas of the the office yes yeah
which I interpreted as him just kind of staring off into space and just kind of
like hearing what the doctor has to say but not like fully grasping and then
when the doctor was like how or when when Matt was finally like okay how long
does she have like you're saying that this was terminal how long does she have
and then it focused in on the doctor which I think was just showing that he
was like laser focused on that and then once you heard the timeline it was then
like staring off into space and at these random things on the wall or whatever
which I I loved how they did that oh yeah as did I yeah over all yeah this
and so we ended up giving it a 91.5 I don't think we have a whole lot to say about it
don't like everything that they do when it comes to like practical like
Kelvin I already said with the makeup when it comes to Nicole was amazing they
they they absolutely nailed how Nicole was supposed to look at that stage so
yeah which I mean if you guys want to argue with us and say that that goes in
the costumes freaking come at us this is our show yeah come at us bro all right
next up we got music which we both gave an eight I mean there really wasn't like
anything huge that really stuck out to me the soundtrack is incredible I
actually went back and listened to it on Spotify and it still hits all the
emotional notes and then what was it that what's the song that Dane puts tells
Nicole like hey you know like I finally found a song that fits wasn't it like
Led Zeppelin or something like that yeah I think he said he didn't like any Led
Zeppelin songs but found one that he liked and yeah the soundtrack was pretty
killer I think the reason that I the thing that kept me from giving it higher
was definitely that there wasn't anything like to there wasn't anything
like I that stood out no yeah and I absolutely agree I was the same way yeah
but what kept me from a seven was all of the like how the music just enhanced the
scenes yes and they knew when like they masterfully knew how to use the music
when not to use the music it was just well crafted mm-hmm
oh completely agree yeah moving on over to costumes this is actually the lowest
thing that we we gave it we ended up giving it a seven I mean they're just
wearing normal clothes for the most of the movie I mean I guess when it's like
the Halloween party you could also graded on that but like those weren't
really any like oh my gosh that's like the coolest costume I've ever seen when
it comes to a Halloween costume yeah they were just like basic Halloween
costumes like really well they were well done it's just yeah no absolutely not
anything that stood out too much yeah I agree one thing that you kind of pointed
out the I don't know what you call them is it like a headdress or like what is
that thing that that I forget what they're called a head wrap I guess you
could say that yeah I think they did a really good job with those like I'm
seeing fun and everything like as fun as they could be because I mean I know my
mom had a lot of different colors of those like to change it up yeah so yeah
we ended up giving that one a seven which I don't think will hurt it too bad
I don't think so all right last up our own personal grade I'll take this one
first okay and then let like hear your thoughts on it I'm going to give it a
99 this is yeah there if you guys know anything about me from previous
episodes I love movies that are experiences I love movies that can pull
a genuine reaction out of me and or genuine feelings and I also like I said
I love experiences like my one of my top movies is a quiet place and the reason
that it's up there for me is because of the experience I had watching it in
theaters it was just the good part though right not the not bad yeah not
the shitty ending which you can go back to any of our untrained eye episodes
yeah any hear about that yeah it's just this was one that pulled like raw
emotion out of me and it was because I was able to relate to the characters so
well and this movie easily has has popped into my top ten dare I say popped
into my top five it is very very high up there and there have not yeah there
haven't been a lot of movies for me that I've related so hard to a character
plus on top of that made it made me ugly cry I think the last movie to make me
like ugly cry like that was um shit probably a fault in our stars Wow Wow
that's like what like six or seven years ago it was a while ago and I watched
that in theaters too and I was around people so you know damn well that I was
not emotionally ready for that movie if I cried in front of people no he was not
yeah so this one I was like Avengers Endgame made me cry like it was just
like like solitary tears this movie made me like like sob like that's that's how
dude that's how I felt like I was totally fine but I'm also a bitch when
it comes to like movies like this but yeah so 99 I have no regrets giving in
a 99 yes so I was actually gonna go a 98 but I'm gonna agree with Caleb I'm
gonna go for a 99 no problems giving this movie that high I I don't think I've
ever related to a movie as much as I do with this one just the characters are
amazing like it like Caleb said we both ugly cried it was it's pretty it was
pretty bad like I said I took my glasses off like 10 minutes into this movie
because I knew I would have to keep taking him off I just had a feeling and
boy was I right dude it's that opening scene so for those of you decided to
listen through this whole shtick they opened the movie up with with Matt and
Natalie deciding that they're gonna tell their kids he goes down to get them
comes back up and then it cuts to today and sitting in like their veranda
that's right yeah sitting in in in the veranda by himself and then he hears the
girls crying that is what got my shit like this movie is gonna be really sad
yeah anyway I'm sorry for cutting you off no dude you're good don't apologize
no do I absolutely agree with you um just such a wonderful film such a sad
goddamn film like oh my god the saddest movies I've ever seen but yeah like
Caleb said if you guys like listen to this whole episode I'm honestly looking
at you Vic um cuz I've known from what you've told us you even if you haven't
seen it yet you'll listen to our review first and then still go watch it they
if you if that's the case with this one shame on you yeah this is like the one
episode that I wanted to make sure that you saw the movie before you listen to
this episode so Vic we're ashamed of you if you want if you listen to this before
you watched it but anyway like I said 99 terrific movie if you haven't watched it
yet do yourself a favor go cry your eyes out experience this amazing truly sad as
hell story with amazing characters and a very good message on true friendship and
how certain situations will they can get you to basically drop anything and
everything just to make sure that your friends are taking care of them that
they're gonna be okay yeah all right well that averages our personal grade
out to a 99 hell yeah yeah so the final all bros letter grade for our friend has
come to an a- it is sitting at a 92.1 2% perfect yeah absolutely perfect
let's see where this sits on all of our other movies okay so compared to all of
our other a- movies our friend is above Logan Wow which is was that a 91.8% it is
above Coco which was at a 91.4 it is above shung chi which was at a 91.2 it
was also above once upon a time in Hollywood which was at a 91.1 and it
was above how to train your dragon the hidden world which was at a solid 91
damn but rightfully deserved yeah so let's see if we'll agree going the other
direction so it is below never be done which was at a 92.2 I would I don't know
well that was that documentary that that's true so I'm kind of like an impasse
with that one yeah it was below a beautiful day in the neighborhood which
was at a 92.3 I I probably would disagree with that the three I think the reason
we disagree with that is because our personal scores for this were higher
usually typically whenever our personal grades are lower yeah then the like the
overall percentage we usually agree on like okay like that makes sense like we
agree with that number a bit more but when our our personal grades are higher
than the score itself that's when we're like and that's wrong but I think what if
we were to go back what's a beautiful day in the neighborhood up for success
was the costumes and music which in this movie were just like that yeah that
brings a little bit it brings movies down obviously not a ton but enough yeah
you got a point there yeah but let's see it's also below Joker which is at a
92.37 see I can understand that one yeah same here and then finally it was below
pulp fiction which we had in a 92.4 yeah still like an impasse with that one
our personal scores for this were higher than pulp fiction okay yeah so it makes
same predicament yeah but the margins are very very close like the difference
between pulp fiction and our friend is 0.3 percent damn yeah that is that was
really close yeah it's like I said the margins are tight like hell there's a
bigger gap yeah there's a bigger gap between our friend and Logan there's a
bigger gap between that between then there is between our friend and the top
the let's see the tops are the six movies above it like the six movies above
it the difference is is 0.8 percent yeah and then with our friend and Logan
there's like a full percentage wow okay all right yeah so that's pretty wild so
I think an a- is a perfect home for this movie absolutely agree yeah anyway oh
