The Maze Runner, 00:00:51.619 --> 00:00:56.659 a .k .a. Sal Stolinski, and Rachel McAdams, a 00:00:56.659 --> 00:01:05.390 .k .a. Regina George. Just became the CEO of 00:01:05.390 --> 00:01:08.790 this major company that Rachel McAdams works 00:01:08.790 --> 00:01:13.549 at. She is portrayed as just the grossest human 00:01:13.549 --> 00:01:17.090 being alive. Or at least they try to portray 00:01:17.090 --> 00:01:19.650 her that way. But she's really good at her job. 00:01:19.790 --> 00:01:24.230 Really good with numbers. But very awkward. Extremely 00:01:24.230 --> 00:01:26.689 socially awkward. Doesn't know really how to 00:01:26.689 --> 00:01:29.829 talk to people or express herself in the right 00:01:29.829 --> 00:01:33.900 way. And she is expecting a new raise, a new 00:01:33.900 --> 00:01:37.799 pay bump. And Dylan O 'Brien's like, nah, fuck 00:01:37.799 --> 00:01:39.840 that. I'm giving it to my fraternity brother. 00:01:40.379 --> 00:01:43.879 And she's super bummed out. Dylan O 'Brien just 00:01:43.879 --> 00:01:47.939 plays an absolute asshole in this movie. And 00:01:47.939 --> 00:01:51.400 it all kicks off when they're on a private plane 00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:58.599 charter to Bangkok or Beijing. And the plane... 00:01:59.200 --> 00:02:02.359 The plane goes down in the middle of the ocean. 00:02:02.780 --> 00:02:06.200 And Dylan O 'Brien and Rachel McAdams are now 00:02:06.200 --> 00:02:11.000 stranded on an island somewhere near Thailand, 00:02:11.240 --> 00:02:16.680 I believe. And Rachel McAdams is just a survivor 00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:19.699 enthusiast. She knows how to make fire, set up 00:02:19.699 --> 00:02:23.800 her own tent, hunt. And Dylan O 'Brien is just 00:02:23.800 --> 00:02:27.020 stuck in his old ways. He is a complete douche, 00:02:27.020 --> 00:02:30.080 a complete asshole. Still believes that Rachel 00:02:30.080 --> 00:02:35.280 McAdams should serve him as this god and he just 00:02:35.280 --> 00:02:37.960 doesn't know how to do jack shit. So there's 00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:41.879 this giant power struggle between the two. Rachel 00:02:41.879 --> 00:02:45.840 McAdams has the skills to actually survive on 00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:49.039 the island while Dylan O 'Brien believes he should 00:02:49.039 --> 00:02:51.439 be the god on the island and she should do whatever 00:02:51.439 --> 00:02:56.280 he wants. So that power struggle ensues. It's 00:02:56.280 --> 00:02:59.039 a lot of back and forth between Rachel McAdams 00:02:59.039 --> 00:03:02.900 being like, hey, I'm the big dog here. And Dylan 00:03:02.900 --> 00:03:05.960 O 'Brien just not succumbing to that, even though 00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:09.120 he eventually has to because he can't survive 00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:15.240 without her. In the old Sam Raimi way, there's 00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:17.939 a lot of horror blended into this. There's a 00:03:17.939 --> 00:03:21.099 lot of comedy blended into this. And then there's 00:03:21.099 --> 00:03:25.840 also a great thriller mystery aspect with a couple 00:03:25.840 --> 00:03:28.879 twists here and there. So overall, I thought 00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:33.780 it was a fantastic movie. You did? I couldn't 00:03:33.780 --> 00:03:36.300 tell based off the summary there. I fucking love 00:03:36.300 --> 00:03:41.039 it. Still no Brian, man. Still no Brian. so this 00:03:41.039 --> 00:03:43.719 was the the best movie you've seen in how long 00:03:43.719 --> 00:03:48.819 like since the last 27 years since the last maze 00:03:48.819 --> 00:03:50.620 runner came out this was the best thing you've 00:03:50.620 --> 00:03:52.219 seen yeah since all right so the last time i 00:03:52.219 --> 00:03:54.539 saw maze runner teen wolf this has got to be 00:03:54.539 --> 00:03:58.280 the best thing i've seen no i like this movie 00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:00.360 too let's score it and then we can really dissect 00:04:00.360 --> 00:04:03.120 it um all right so entertainment i gave this 00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:06.479 an 8 .1 out of 10 entertainment i went nine two 00:04:06.479 --> 00:04:12.590 that's high uh characters on 8 .4 characters 00:04:12.590 --> 00:04:17.389 i went nine oh damn yeah cinematography i won 00:04:17.389 --> 00:04:22.910 eight two cinematography and writing i went seven 00:04:22.910 --> 00:04:27.810 seven writing i went eight two eight two so let's 00:04:27.810 --> 00:04:29.329 talk about the entertainment like why did you 00:04:29.329 --> 00:04:31.029 think it was why do you think it was that good 00:04:31.029 --> 00:04:34.689 i haven't i have not seen this mold of a movie 00:04:34.689 --> 00:04:36.449 before though like crash landing on an island 00:04:36.449 --> 00:04:40.389 it's just lord of the flies lost or I've seen 00:04:40.389 --> 00:04:43.829 the pilot of Lost, so that's my whole knowledge 00:04:43.829 --> 00:04:46.189 of Lost, so I could be wrong there. Fantastic. 00:04:46.189 --> 00:04:48.009 But definitely Lord of the Flies. Definitely 00:04:48.009 --> 00:04:51.310 Lord of the Flies. Yeah, this is not a Lost plug, 00:04:51.430 --> 00:04:53.810 though, by any means. I just don't know much 00:04:53.810 --> 00:04:57.110 about it besides, like, the first episode. So, 00:04:57.170 --> 00:05:01.529 like, I mean, that whole plot or that type of 00:05:01.529 --> 00:05:04.230 story is intriguing. There's a lot of shit that 00:05:04.230 --> 00:05:07.759 can go awry, as we know. there's no authority 00:05:07.759 --> 00:05:11.220 here it's all anarchy and rich mcadams figures 00:05:11.220 --> 00:05:13.639 that out pretty much right away and i like that 00:05:13.639 --> 00:05:16.139 they added in the little touch of how she was 00:05:16.139 --> 00:05:20.100 a nerd just obsessed with survivor and then she 00:05:20.100 --> 00:05:23.199 gets to put her skills into effect yeah huge 00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:26.899 survivor plug by the way yeah besides the fact 00:05:26.899 --> 00:05:30.839 that their biggest fan was a sociopath but well 00:05:30.839 --> 00:05:34.360 no yeah it was it was a wasn't a bad use of um 00:05:34.360 --> 00:05:36.769 of marketing or um What do they call it? Product 00:05:36.769 --> 00:05:41.829 placement. But, like, I don't know. I didn't 00:05:41.829 --> 00:05:43.610 think this was, like, a five -star movie. I thought 00:05:43.610 --> 00:05:46.829 it was really good. I thought the twist with 00:05:46.829 --> 00:05:50.930 the estate being here on the island was good. 00:05:51.069 --> 00:05:53.449 But I was telling you offline, like, I kind of 00:05:53.449 --> 00:05:56.670 saw that coming when they teased it at first. 00:05:56.889 --> 00:06:00.550 Although, it wasn't at all, like, a bad aspect 00:06:00.550 --> 00:06:02.029 to the movie. I thought that made it a little 00:06:02.029 --> 00:06:05.810 more interesting. I just, I don't know. I guess 00:06:05.810 --> 00:06:07.449 I'll wait for the writing to touch more on this, 00:06:07.509 --> 00:06:11.389 but the whole thing with his fiancée coming to 00:06:11.389 --> 00:06:17.649 the island and just getting erased very, very 00:06:17.649 --> 00:06:19.889 conveniently, it just seemed a little more... 00:06:19.889 --> 00:06:22.410 It seemed a little fodderish to me. Hey, follow 00:06:22.410 --> 00:06:26.170 me up this rickety mountain real quick. I just 00:06:26.170 --> 00:06:28.670 couldn't fathom how she ended up with her arm 00:06:28.670 --> 00:06:30.649 in the ground like that from falling off the 00:06:30.649 --> 00:06:32.769 cliff, which was... Well, fell in the ocean and 00:06:32.769 --> 00:06:37.490 then washed up upon shore. But it buried. Whatever. 00:06:37.829 --> 00:06:41.189 I'm not a physicist. But that was a little crazy. 00:06:41.709 --> 00:06:44.529 But, I mean, I'm just giving negative pieces 00:06:44.529 --> 00:06:47.029 of it. I thought the whole, like, survivor aspect 00:06:47.029 --> 00:06:48.569 of it, like you were mentioning, how she's able 00:06:48.569 --> 00:06:51.829 to just create all this shit from nothing and 00:06:51.829 --> 00:06:56.829 make some pretty sick teepees on the beach. Yeah, 00:06:56.829 --> 00:07:02.149 Michelin star sushi on the beach. Crazy. Yeah, 00:07:02.269 --> 00:07:07.769 yeah. yeah i mean they for what it is too it's 00:07:07.769 --> 00:07:10.029 really just two people we didn't even mention 00:07:10.029 --> 00:07:11.970 like all the other people on the plane just died 00:07:11.970 --> 00:07:14.769 like horrifically i guess you kind of glossed 00:07:14.769 --> 00:07:19.060 over that um and then once it happened like There's 00:07:19.060 --> 00:07:21.240 a lot of ways you can go with that, but I think 00:07:21.240 --> 00:07:23.779 they kept it interesting throughout. There was 00:07:23.779 --> 00:07:26.279 definitely a buildup where Dylan O 'Brien at 00:07:26.279 --> 00:07:29.060 first is like, fuck this girl. And then he's 00:07:29.060 --> 00:07:31.100 like, okay, I kind of respect this girl. And 00:07:31.100 --> 00:07:33.160 then he's like, I need to respect this girl or 00:07:33.160 --> 00:07:36.220 I will die because she will not feed me. And 00:07:36.220 --> 00:07:40.459 it kind of just kept escalating. And we got a 00:07:40.459 --> 00:07:43.459 little bit of a horror ending, if you would, 00:07:43.519 --> 00:07:46.399 for Dylan O 'Brien, definitely. 100 % for Dylan 00:07:46.399 --> 00:07:52.060 O 'Brien. um i just to start off why to start 00:07:52.060 --> 00:07:54.120 off why i like this movie i mean i just love 00:07:54.120 --> 00:07:56.819 dan o 'brien i don't know what it is i don't 00:07:56.819 --> 00:07:59.759 know what it is he's funny he's just like such 00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:03.879 a natural actor it feels like the way he portrays 00:08:03.879 --> 00:08:07.620 himself on screen is just it's believable you 00:08:07.620 --> 00:08:11.730 want to like the guy I'm happy to see him back 00:08:11.730 --> 00:08:13.910 on the big screen. I know he's come out with 00:08:13.910 --> 00:08:16.750 a couple movies recently, like the SNL one, but 00:08:16.750 --> 00:08:19.670 I didn't go see that one. But I was excited to 00:08:19.670 --> 00:08:23.129 see he was in this thriller -esque horror movie 00:08:23.129 --> 00:08:28.850 and couldn't wait to go see it. And I was holding 00:08:28.850 --> 00:08:31.750 the movie to a high standard, and it met that 00:08:31.750 --> 00:08:34.730 standard for me. I thought the dynamic between 00:08:34.730 --> 00:08:37.269 Dylan O 'Brien and Rachel McAdams' characters 00:08:37.269 --> 00:08:41.950 was fantastic. I thought the splashes of comedy 00:08:41.950 --> 00:08:45.490 throughout the movie were also, they hit the 00:08:45.490 --> 00:08:50.629 mark each time. The subtle cuts, when Rachel 00:08:50.629 --> 00:08:54.169 McAdams first is like, you know what, fuck Dylan 00:08:54.169 --> 00:08:55.889 O 'Brien. I'm not going to help him because he's 00:08:55.889 --> 00:08:58.909 acting like a douchebag after she saved his life. 00:08:59.070 --> 00:09:02.259 And the subtle cuts. Where it's like the pan 00:09:02.259 --> 00:09:04.899 shot of Dylan O 'Brien slowly getting more and 00:09:04.899 --> 00:09:07.059 more deranged because he doesn't have food, he 00:09:07.059 --> 00:09:08.980 doesn't have water, and he's like foaming at 00:09:08.980 --> 00:09:11.860 the mouth by the end of it. I thought that was 00:09:11.860 --> 00:09:18.159 hilarious. And then, like you said, the twist 00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:21.580 with the estate at the end definitely saw that 00:09:21.580 --> 00:09:24.620 coming. When Rachel McAdams pointed out to him 00:09:24.620 --> 00:09:27.820 like, hey, you see that giant X -Rock? Don't 00:09:27.820 --> 00:09:30.419 go that way. There's poisonous thorns over there. 00:09:30.779 --> 00:09:32.720 It's like, shut the fuck up. We know there's 00:09:32.720 --> 00:09:35.120 something on that side of the island, but it 00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:36.720 still didn't... I would have just started running 00:09:36.720 --> 00:09:40.200 right at it. I mean, I would have jumped off 00:09:40.200 --> 00:09:42.399 the cliff first thing. I'm like, well, actually, 00:09:42.440 --> 00:09:44.919 hold on, hold on. If I'm stuck on an island with 00:09:44.919 --> 00:09:47.879 Rachel McAdams, I'm not. Whatever you want. Whatever 00:09:47.879 --> 00:09:52.379 you want me to do, I'm doing it. But yeah, I 00:09:52.379 --> 00:09:55.600 just thought the twists weren't anything crazy, 00:09:55.620 --> 00:10:00.379 but the movie overall just kept me... engage 00:10:00.379 --> 00:10:03.259 the entire time and again I think it falls back 00:10:03.259 --> 00:10:06.720 onto that dynamic between Dylan O 'Brien and 00:10:06.720 --> 00:10:09.460 Rachel McAdams this whole time you're like holy 00:10:09.460 --> 00:10:11.840 shit Dylan O 'Brien's the biggest douchebag of 00:10:11.840 --> 00:10:15.000 all the time can you just listen to Rachel McAdams 00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:17.100 and what she has to say because she clearly knows 00:10:17.100 --> 00:10:20.679 what's going on and you start to see him change 00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:23.620 a little bit And then he just subverts right 00:10:23.620 --> 00:10:26.179 back into being the biggest asshole of all time 00:10:26.179 --> 00:10:29.360 when he tries to poison her and take his shitty 00:10:29.360 --> 00:10:34.320 little raft out against 10 -foot waves and he 00:10:34.320 --> 00:10:38.179 gets demolished. But then here's the thing, though. 00:10:38.220 --> 00:10:41.059 Here's why I love it. So Dylan O 'Brien's the 00:10:41.059 --> 00:10:43.940 biggest douchebag and you want to be on Rachel 00:10:43.940 --> 00:10:48.019 McAdams' side. But as you slowly start to see 00:10:48.019 --> 00:10:51.100 him change and be somewhat of a better person, 00:10:51.610 --> 00:10:56.070 And then he kind of reverts back at times. You 00:10:56.070 --> 00:10:58.909 would, you should be as a viewer completely on 00:10:58.909 --> 00:11:02.110 Rachel McAdams side until you start slowly. The 00:11:02.110 --> 00:11:04.669 movie starts slowly revealing that she also is 00:11:04.669 --> 00:11:08.830 a psychopath. Like she ends up killing his fiance 00:11:08.830 --> 00:11:12.629 and the little innocent Filipino man that tries 00:11:12.629 --> 00:11:15.950 to help her. She actually only killed the Filipino 00:11:15.950 --> 00:11:20.970 man and the fiance was just. collateral damage 00:11:20.970 --> 00:11:25.289 for sure sure i counted his two bodies i counted 00:11:25.289 --> 00:11:28.429 his two bodies but it's crazy but and then the 00:11:28.429 --> 00:11:32.169 scene where she like is castrating him i was 00:11:32.169 --> 00:11:35.950 like holy shit this lady's dark but right so 00:11:35.950 --> 00:11:37.889 so that's the thing i i think this movie was 00:11:37.889 --> 00:11:41.370 so good because it's like at the end of the day 00:11:41.370 --> 00:11:44.289 you're still probably on rachel mcadam side i 00:11:44.289 --> 00:11:47.649 was kind of rooting for dylan o 'brien but but 00:11:47.649 --> 00:11:51.799 uh like donovan dude don't know poor donovan 00:11:51.799 --> 00:11:57.019 yeah no for real um but yeah i can't make a couple 00:11:57.019 --> 00:11:59.159 sexist jokes at the office anymore he's got to 00:11:59.159 --> 00:12:01.940 get strangled to death on a plane yeah but his 00:12:01.940 --> 00:12:05.360 body flaps against the window and she just like 00:12:05.360 --> 00:12:08.100 yeah moves the window thing down I thought that 00:12:08.100 --> 00:12:11.100 was fantastic. As a fellow golfer, that one stung 00:12:11.100 --> 00:12:13.539 a little bit. I was like, fuck. Got a fork to 00:12:13.539 --> 00:12:16.539 the eyeball, too, before that? I mean... Donovan's 00:12:16.539 --> 00:12:18.820 never going to log another round in 18 birdies 00:12:18.820 --> 00:12:22.879 now. He's in the ocean somewhere. And honestly, 00:12:23.100 --> 00:12:27.039 that's... When Dylan O 'Brien learns that Donovan 00:12:27.039 --> 00:12:32.659 didn't make it, he's just so heartbroken. Just 00:12:32.659 --> 00:12:36.220 completely heartbroken. The Asian guy, he didn't 00:12:36.220 --> 00:12:37.799 care about it at all. Yeah, no. Oh, he kicked 00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:39.980 him in the face and he went out the hole in the 00:12:39.980 --> 00:12:43.559 plane. Dude, I hate those. Like, that was a really 00:12:43.559 --> 00:12:46.700 good plane crash scene, but I hate that kind 00:12:46.700 --> 00:12:49.659 of shit. Like, I hate those fight or flight moments. 00:12:49.779 --> 00:12:52.139 Like, I don't like seeing humans do that shit. 00:12:52.200 --> 00:12:55.179 It makes me so uncomfortable. But it's definitely 00:12:55.179 --> 00:12:57.460 what would have happened in real life. Oh, 100%. 00:12:59.100 --> 00:13:01.220 but yeah that shit just makes me so uncomfortable 00:13:01.220 --> 00:13:02.860 like when i'm watching it but it was a good scene 00:13:02.860 --> 00:13:05.100 and i just don't like flying in general like 00:13:05.100 --> 00:13:07.919 that's probably my greatest fear is dying like 00:13:07.919 --> 00:13:10.480 that and i i feel like it also set the stage 00:13:10.480 --> 00:13:14.879 for uh for both the characters themselves right 00:13:14.879 --> 00:13:18.399 dylan o 'brien immediately straps in and kicks 00:13:18.399 --> 00:13:21.980 off the asian guy without any chatting like get 00:13:21.980 --> 00:13:25.299 the fuck off me to save himself while rachel 00:13:25.299 --> 00:13:28.870 mcadam's character did try to save donovan right 00:13:28.870 --> 00:13:31.590 at the start until he's like give me your fucking 00:13:31.590 --> 00:13:35.690 seat which is the craziest thing ever not even 00:13:35.690 --> 00:13:38.190 a hold on just give me your fucking seat so i 00:13:38.190 --> 00:13:40.769 can survive yeah so she did try to help him at 00:13:40.769 --> 00:13:44.190 first but again it was her like fight or flight 00:13:44.190 --> 00:13:47.070 she's like no i have to fight for my life here 00:13:47.070 --> 00:13:51.370 stab well you know donovan would have just thrown 00:13:51.370 --> 00:13:55.070 her off the plane oh 100 the same way dylan o 00:13:55.070 --> 00:13:58.490 'brien chucked the asian guy out yeah So you 00:13:58.490 --> 00:14:01.509 know what? Fuck Dylan O 'Brien. Yeah, he was 00:14:01.509 --> 00:14:04.529 extremely unlikable. He was extremely unlikable 00:14:04.529 --> 00:14:05.990 in this movie. Let's just talk about the characters. 00:14:06.769 --> 00:14:10.070 This is the only thing I really wrote down. It 00:14:10.070 --> 00:14:13.730 takes a lot of skill acting -wise when you can 00:14:13.730 --> 00:14:17.350 be as hot as someone like Rachel McAdams and 00:14:17.350 --> 00:14:20.590 convince me that you're this incredulous nerd 00:14:20.590 --> 00:14:25.179 who smells like tuna fish all the time. Case 00:14:25.179 --> 00:14:28.139 in point, Mark Wahlberg in Ted. I was just watching 00:14:28.139 --> 00:14:31.159 that pretty recently. He convinces me in Ted 00:14:31.159 --> 00:14:33.779 that he's a fucking bum and it's Mark Wahlberg. 00:14:34.960 --> 00:14:37.220 I'm like, wow, look at that fucking loser. That 00:14:37.220 --> 00:14:39.220 dude doesn't wake up at 4 a .m. to do pull -ups 00:14:39.220 --> 00:14:43.159 and push -ups. Yeah. But that was the effect 00:14:43.159 --> 00:14:44.820 Rachel McAdams had in this movie. I was like, 00:14:44.879 --> 00:14:47.360 ew, what the fuck? She's eating tuna in front 00:14:47.360 --> 00:14:51.980 of the CEO? Dude, her loafers. Whenever she has 00:14:51.980 --> 00:14:54.039 them off and Dylan O 'Brien's just looking at 00:14:54.039 --> 00:14:57.940 them. He's like, oh, my God. Well, his shoes 00:14:57.940 --> 00:14:59.759 were something, too. Like, I love when he was 00:14:59.759 --> 00:15:03.179 on, like, the beach passed out in corpse mode 00:15:03.179 --> 00:15:05.600 when he washed up on shore. And he just, like, 00:15:05.639 --> 00:15:10.840 highlighted his, like, Tom's loafers. Like, super 00:15:10.840 --> 00:15:14.259 feminine looking shoes. Because she makes a big 00:15:14.259 --> 00:15:16.139 case of point to, like, call those out when she's 00:15:16.139 --> 00:15:18.740 trying to kiss his ass or whatever. But that's 00:15:18.740 --> 00:15:22.269 an ode to her acting ability. Obviously a really 00:15:22.269 --> 00:15:25.870 good actress. For me, I felt like it was kind 00:15:25.870 --> 00:15:29.610 of like a she's all that moment. Where it's like, 00:15:29.669 --> 00:15:33.610 they try to make her look as gross as possible, 00:15:33.710 --> 00:15:35.590 but at the end of the day, it's still Rachel 00:15:35.590 --> 00:15:39.009 McAdams. They gave her a week on the island and 00:15:39.009 --> 00:15:42.610 she put her hair down. And it's like, Jesus Christ. 00:15:42.769 --> 00:15:44.509 It's like, if I was stuck on the island with 00:15:44.509 --> 00:15:48.049 this chick, I wouldn't do it. It's like, is that 00:15:48.049 --> 00:15:51.879 white Pocahontas? What the fuck? I don't know 00:15:51.879 --> 00:15:55.659 if you could say that. Well, I mean, she was 00:15:55.659 --> 00:15:59.759 making food from thin air. White Sacagawea. Pocahontas 00:15:59.759 --> 00:16:01.899 wasn't even doing that. Yeah, White Sacagawea. 00:16:02.899 --> 00:16:06.480 Nah, we'll keep that in. But yeah, and then she 00:16:06.480 --> 00:16:08.460 comes out of the ocean and she's got that natural 00:16:08.460 --> 00:16:11.059 glow and Dylan O 'Brien's like, holy shit. This 00:16:11.059 --> 00:16:17.340 girl from accounting won? Maybe I do like tear 00:16:17.340 --> 00:16:21.649 fish. well yeah no that yeah he's like i like 00:16:21.649 --> 00:16:25.330 this spicy tuna a lot more um we can work we 00:16:25.330 --> 00:16:29.409 can work with this uh no i mean that whole part 00:16:29.409 --> 00:16:31.250 was a little weird like that whole love triangle 00:16:31.250 --> 00:16:33.429 thing was weird i i don't think rachel mcadams 00:16:33.429 --> 00:16:36.220 was ever like into him I just think she liked 00:16:36.220 --> 00:16:40.240 the power of knowing more than him. But it was 00:16:40.240 --> 00:16:41.919 kind of funny because she didn't really know 00:16:41.919 --> 00:16:43.720 that much more than him. She just knew where 00:16:43.720 --> 00:16:46.059 all the fucking resources were at the house. 00:16:47.220 --> 00:16:49.379 That's the same shit as Dylan O 'Brien. Dylan 00:16:49.379 --> 00:16:51.720 O 'Brien doesn't know shit. He's just the CEO 00:16:51.720 --> 00:16:54.580 because his dad was the boss before him. She 00:16:54.580 --> 00:16:59.279 knew how to make shit from wood and tie shit 00:16:59.279 --> 00:17:03.159 up, fish herself, all that stuff. I do think 00:17:03.159 --> 00:17:05.680 she was getting that like super fresh fruit from 00:17:05.680 --> 00:17:12.259 the house for sure. But yeah, no, I just, man, 00:17:12.799 --> 00:17:14.519 you just said something that sparked something 00:17:14.519 --> 00:17:19.480 in me and now I forgot. Spicy tuna. Spicy tuna 00:17:19.480 --> 00:17:23.019 is good though. I do like spicy tuna. Don't know 00:17:23.019 --> 00:17:24.619 Brian would have hated me. I love eating tuna 00:17:24.619 --> 00:17:28.240 fish. But yeah, no, just go back to your point. 00:17:29.390 --> 00:17:32.089 no that that's that was my point like i just 00:17:32.089 --> 00:17:36.150 think that it was a bit of an oxymoron how she 00:17:36.150 --> 00:17:38.470 perceived to have all this knowledge and then 00:17:38.470 --> 00:17:42.009 she really didn't have it that much but i guess 00:17:42.009 --> 00:17:44.769 she had a little more she definitely was smarter 00:17:44.769 --> 00:17:46.890 than him the whole time like she was she was 00:17:46.890 --> 00:17:51.529 always one step ahead too yeah um it's kind of 00:17:51.529 --> 00:17:54.190 scary at the end too oh yeah super serious i 00:17:54.190 --> 00:17:55.789 mean their fight scene at the end was fucking 00:17:55.789 --> 00:17:58.329 insane but we can get to that in the cinematography 00:17:58.329 --> 00:18:00.190 the one point i wanted to bring up where you 00:18:00.190 --> 00:18:02.750 were like the the love triangle was a little 00:18:02.750 --> 00:18:05.730 weird i don't think he was ever infatuated with 00:18:05.730 --> 00:18:08.289 her he just wanted to get the upper hand on her 00:18:08.289 --> 00:18:12.829 end i think she just loved the idea of being 00:18:12.829 --> 00:18:15.910 in control and i think that's what that whole 00:18:15.910 --> 00:18:19.690 thing was she calls him like sweetie a couple 00:18:19.690 --> 00:18:23.750 times which is her like bird's name That she's 00:18:23.750 --> 00:18:26.450 got locked up in a cage, feeds the bird, all 00:18:26.450 --> 00:18:28.910 this stuff. It's her only partner in life, pretty 00:18:28.910 --> 00:18:32.690 much. And I think it kind of translated into 00:18:32.690 --> 00:18:34.910 Dylan O 'Brien where it's like, look, I'm taking 00:18:34.910 --> 00:18:38.269 care of you. You're mine. Like, I am in charge 00:18:38.269 --> 00:18:40.069 right now. Don't disobey me. It's like doing 00:18:40.069 --> 00:18:44.730 the airplane. Open up, Dylan. I think that's 00:18:44.730 --> 00:18:46.509 probably where it was going to end up going. 00:18:46.609 --> 00:18:50.190 Kind of like Misery. Almost like that. Well, 00:18:50.289 --> 00:18:52.890 that's actually probably a good... Dude, I'm 00:18:52.890 --> 00:18:54.430 going to pat myself on the back. Yeah, no, that's 00:18:54.430 --> 00:18:56.650 a really good comparison. Very similar comparison. 00:18:56.910 --> 00:19:00.230 Like, she clearly early on wants to just keep 00:19:00.230 --> 00:19:02.569 him as prisoner. She sees the boat. Yeah. And 00:19:02.569 --> 00:19:04.190 she's like, oh, my God. Like, I don't want to 00:19:04.190 --> 00:19:06.369 leave. But I was like, you don't want to fuck 00:19:06.369 --> 00:19:08.230 this guy. Like, why do you want to keep him here? 00:19:09.930 --> 00:19:12.490 And at that point, she hadn't committed murder. 00:19:14.029 --> 00:19:16.930 I mean, she could have returned to civilization 00:19:16.930 --> 00:19:20.690 just fine. But then she just, yeah, she has to 00:19:20.690 --> 00:19:23.230 commit a triple homicide to get back to her life. 00:19:23.309 --> 00:19:26.029 And then she does. Dude, while it's on my mind, 00:19:26.150 --> 00:19:28.470 because you said committed murder and I'm thinking 00:19:28.470 --> 00:19:31.410 about that poor little Asian man that she murdered 00:19:31.410 --> 00:19:34.589 with a giant rock. Yeah, he didn't even know 00:19:34.589 --> 00:19:37.609 English. Dude, one of the funniest parts of the 00:19:37.609 --> 00:19:41.509 movie to me was when she's picking mangoes and 00:19:41.509 --> 00:19:44.769 the boat pulls up and the fiance's like, oh my 00:19:44.769 --> 00:19:48.849 God, Linda, like you're alive. where where's 00:19:48.849 --> 00:19:51.589 dylan where's dylan at and then uh she's like 00:19:51.589 --> 00:19:54.730 oh god like what am i gonna do she's like uh 00:19:54.730 --> 00:19:57.930 yeah i i can i can take you with me she picks 00:19:57.930 --> 00:20:00.470 up the giant bag of mangoes and the guy's like 00:20:00.470 --> 00:20:02.930 hey we have so much food on the boat right here 00:20:02.930 --> 00:20:05.869 she's like no no no no like i need the he's like 00:20:05.869 --> 00:20:09.970 oh you really like mangoes huh she's like i don't 00:20:09.970 --> 00:20:14.710 want your fucking seed oils this shit's fresh 00:20:14.710 --> 00:20:18.500 bro I don't want that fucking packaged food. 00:20:19.480 --> 00:20:22.660 Yeah, no, that was pretty funny. And yeah, I 00:20:22.660 --> 00:20:24.140 mean, she just carries out that whole Betty, 00:20:24.200 --> 00:20:26.240 or what's her name? Kathy Bates character for 00:20:26.240 --> 00:20:28.700 Misery. So let's do the cinematography because 00:20:28.700 --> 00:20:30.859 I think there's a little bit that we can touch 00:20:30.859 --> 00:20:34.140 on here. I mean, you mentioned those pan shots 00:20:34.140 --> 00:20:37.960 where kind of, I guess those were time lapses 00:20:37.960 --> 00:20:41.279 when he was just slowly becoming more anorexic 00:20:41.279 --> 00:20:44.319 on the beach. Yeah, she was like starving him. 00:20:44.880 --> 00:20:48.299 um i liked i i mean there's a lot of like quick 00:20:48.299 --> 00:20:52.180 pan cameras in this too and like zooming in too 00:20:52.180 --> 00:20:54.779 like they zoomed in on the like nasty tuna fish 00:20:54.779 --> 00:20:57.559 on her on her cheek or whatever and like they 00:20:57.559 --> 00:20:59.960 zoomed in at like some weird yeah to make it 00:20:59.960 --> 00:21:02.980 like a point of emphasis and like see what dylan 00:21:02.980 --> 00:21:05.400 o 'brien is really lasered in on besides the 00:21:05.400 --> 00:21:09.619 fact there's other happening around Yeah, yeah. 00:21:09.759 --> 00:21:12.359 And the costume design I thought was pretty good. 00:21:12.559 --> 00:21:15.140 Again, they do a really good job of making Rachel 00:21:15.140 --> 00:21:19.660 McAdams look mid, which is very hard to do. Academy 00:21:19.660 --> 00:21:25.140 Award. Seriously. Mean Girls was a revelation 00:21:25.140 --> 00:21:28.380 for me back in the day. It's crazy just seeing 00:21:28.380 --> 00:21:32.700 those two in the same actress in completely different 00:21:32.700 --> 00:21:35.960 roles. But at the same time, Dylan O 'Brien doesn't 00:21:35.960 --> 00:21:38.349 usually play a... narcissist like this either 00:21:38.349 --> 00:21:40.730 and i think they did a good job like putting 00:21:40.730 --> 00:21:43.589 him in really douchey clothes like the loafers 00:21:43.589 --> 00:21:46.970 i was talking about and um there's probably wasn't 00:21:46.970 --> 00:21:49.789 there another thing that he had like a or no 00:21:49.789 --> 00:21:52.430 i think i'm i think i'm misremembering it like 00:21:52.430 --> 00:21:55.079 he didn't have like a weird ring or a a watch 00:21:55.079 --> 00:21:57.920 no yeah the engagement rig the engagement like 00:21:57.920 --> 00:22:00.059 they zoomed in on that a bunch of times i mean 00:22:00.059 --> 00:22:02.799 obviously it was like a rock um so they just 00:22:02.799 --> 00:22:05.660 emphasizing how wealthy he is you know showing 00:22:05.660 --> 00:22:08.240 things without saying too much like it's clearly 00:22:08.240 --> 00:22:12.259 obvious that he is in another class rachel mcadams 00:22:12.259 --> 00:22:15.200 looks at her as like a peasant and doesn't really 00:22:15.200 --> 00:22:17.180 give a shit about her at all and that's that 00:22:17.180 --> 00:22:19.680 whole thing is is depicted just through how they 00:22:19.680 --> 00:22:22.660 shoot it which i thought was cool yeah I also, 00:22:22.900 --> 00:22:26.880 I'm not going to lie, I feel like some of, there 00:22:26.880 --> 00:22:31.700 were quite a few CGI scenes that could have been 00:22:31.700 --> 00:22:34.299 taken maybe a little over the top, but again, 00:22:34.480 --> 00:22:37.019 I was kind of fucking with it. When Rachel McAdams 00:22:37.019 --> 00:22:40.980 is boar hunting, the amount of blood that just 00:22:40.980 --> 00:22:45.140 splatters everywhere is insane. It's like someone 00:22:45.140 --> 00:22:47.559 just took a giant bucket and just flung it right 00:22:47.559 --> 00:22:50.980 on her. But still, I thought it was fantastic. 00:22:51.279 --> 00:22:54.480 The fight scene between Rachel McAdams and Dylan 00:22:54.480 --> 00:22:57.099 O 'Brien at the end, I mean, a complete Duke 00:22:57.099 --> 00:23:00.400 Nukem style fight. He's gouging her fucking eye 00:23:00.400 --> 00:23:03.880 out. She's shanking him. I mean, so much shit 00:23:03.880 --> 00:23:07.460 is happening. And again, I fucking loved it. 00:23:07.539 --> 00:23:09.420 I thought it was great. I think Sam Raimi does 00:23:09.420 --> 00:23:14.319 a great job at incorporating horror into whatever 00:23:14.319 --> 00:23:17.740 movie he's doing, whether it's... doctor strange 00:23:17.740 --> 00:23:21.400 or whether it's the spider -man movies it's like 00:23:21.400 --> 00:23:24.779 he he knows mcguire dancing and pointing at people 00:23:24.779 --> 00:23:27.119 i mean that's the scariest thing we've ever seen 00:23:27.119 --> 00:23:30.319 on the big screen it's gotta be that that haircut 00:23:30.319 --> 00:23:33.920 that outfit and the dancing are just the scary 00:23:35.630 --> 00:23:39.109 We needed a dance scene from Dylan O 'Brien doing 00:23:39.109 --> 00:23:41.890 that dance in this movie. That would have been 00:23:41.890 --> 00:23:45.049 good. That would have been the cherry on top. 00:23:45.250 --> 00:23:48.410 But speaking of Little Easter Eggs, I thought 00:23:48.410 --> 00:23:52.029 it was dope that they had that one way or another 00:23:52.029 --> 00:23:57.269 song that's used in Mean Girls to be Linda Little's 00:23:57.269 --> 00:24:00.289 theme song in this movie. I thought that was 00:24:00.289 --> 00:24:04.950 a cherry on top for sure. no yeah that was funny 00:24:04.950 --> 00:24:07.190 and then the last the last thing i we should 00:24:07.190 --> 00:24:08.910 probably talk about is like when he actually 00:24:08.910 --> 00:24:12.869 dies it just transitions into her hitting a hitting 00:24:12.869 --> 00:24:18.970 a drive like with a 350 yard bomb yeah yeah they 00:24:18.970 --> 00:24:21.170 use cgi for that too they could have just used 00:24:21.170 --> 00:24:23.849 like nelly corda or one of the one of the goats 00:24:23.849 --> 00:24:26.589 shout out nelly corda no that wasn't cgi yeah 00:24:26.589 --> 00:24:29.849 that's her real story yeah she's pretty good 00:24:30.990 --> 00:24:33.450 so let's go let's do the writing i've already 00:24:33.450 --> 00:24:36.170 talked a little bit about it like i i i just 00:24:36.170 --> 00:24:38.910 wasn't like uh i don't know like the love triangle 00:24:38.910 --> 00:24:40.890 thing was a little weird i don't think that was 00:24:40.890 --> 00:24:43.769 necessarily a plot hole though i will say just 00:24:43.769 --> 00:24:48.150 the convenience of how the fiance and the the 00:24:48.150 --> 00:24:50.470 asian dude showed up and just were like instantly 00:24:50.470 --> 00:24:55.579 killed by yeah by her was was pretty i i don't 00:24:55.579 --> 00:24:57.140 know i thought it was a little too casual how 00:24:57.140 --> 00:25:00.059 they did that plot hole wise though i i can't 00:25:00.059 --> 00:25:03.400 really think of much other than could they have 00:25:03.400 --> 00:25:08.079 actually survived the plane crash with no top 00:25:08.079 --> 00:25:10.859 to the cabin when it hit the ocean yeah probably 00:25:10.859 --> 00:25:15.039 that was i don't know this stuff happens a lot 00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:17.599 like people do survive shit like that so it's 00:25:17.599 --> 00:25:19.059 probably not out of the realm of possibility 00:25:19.059 --> 00:25:24.500 but um yeah i mean this wasn't a poorly written 00:25:24.500 --> 00:25:26.940 movie by any by any stretch of the means like 00:25:26.940 --> 00:25:30.240 i thought it it flowed well i just gave it a 00:25:30.240 --> 00:25:33.859 7 .7 because i again like very reminiscent of 00:25:33.859 --> 00:25:36.660 lord of the flies and other movies like this 00:25:36.660 --> 00:25:40.220 like survival aspects play a huge role of everything 00:25:40.220 --> 00:25:44.380 so i mean yeah i i can't really think of any 00:25:44.380 --> 00:25:47.579 plot holes throughout the movie i would agree 00:25:47.579 --> 00:25:51.519 that When the fiance arrives onto the island, 00:25:51.700 --> 00:25:56.700 it starts speeding up the climax of the movie 00:25:56.700 --> 00:26:00.500 to the giant fight. I feel like a majority of 00:26:00.500 --> 00:26:03.640 the movie is just this power balance struggle 00:26:03.640 --> 00:26:06.420 between the two. And then once the fiance shows 00:26:06.420 --> 00:26:10.200 up, it's like, okay, Rachel McAdams is a psychopath, 00:26:10.339 --> 00:26:13.359 kills him. And then it instantly kind of flies 00:26:13.359 --> 00:26:17.119 into the Duke Nukem brawl. That those two have. 00:26:17.660 --> 00:26:21.720 I think. It's not. I mean it was just comedy. 00:26:21.859 --> 00:26:24.299 But like. How dumb do you have to be. To spell 00:26:24.299 --> 00:26:29.819 help. H -E -P -L. Like. Come on. They're just 00:26:29.819 --> 00:26:32.059 leaning into it. Yeah. No. 100%. It's like the. 00:26:32.559 --> 00:26:34.960 Oh. And I fucking loved it. It's like. She's 00:26:34.960 --> 00:26:36.920 like. She walks past him. She's like. Hepple. 00:26:42.140 --> 00:26:44.839 No. The only. The. I just thought it was what 00:26:44.839 --> 00:26:47.740 you were talking. But like. in real in the real 00:26:47.740 --> 00:26:50.240 world i just don't think that her character would 00:26:50.240 --> 00:26:53.240 have had the same decision making that that she 00:26:53.240 --> 00:26:55.980 ended up doing like i get that she's this survivalist 00:26:55.980 --> 00:26:58.099 nut who doesn't want to leave the island but 00:26:58.099 --> 00:27:02.740 your competition for that what was the job she 00:27:02.740 --> 00:27:06.480 wanted like the cfo or the something like vp 00:27:06.480 --> 00:27:11.000 or something maybe a vp yeah yeah like her competition 00:27:11.000 --> 00:27:14.480 was literally killed in front of everyone's eyes 00:27:14.480 --> 00:27:18.539 yeah and if she helped this guy survive this 00:27:18.539 --> 00:27:21.740 crash, like there's like no way she's not going 00:27:21.740 --> 00:27:23.599 to get that job. You know what I mean? Yeah. 00:27:23.660 --> 00:27:26.420 So once she finds the fiance, I don't know why 00:27:26.420 --> 00:27:28.859 her motives are all already changing to like, 00:27:28.920 --> 00:27:31.740 I gotta, I really got to commit three felonies 00:27:31.740 --> 00:27:34.720 here and then get home. You know? I mean, it 00:27:34.720 --> 00:27:37.619 all ended up working out for her. So worked out 00:27:37.619 --> 00:27:41.660 better for her. I guess she was right. She got 00:27:41.660 --> 00:27:43.559 her own book. That's the moral of the story. 00:27:43.640 --> 00:27:47.140 But I mean, females are always right. Yeah, I 00:27:47.140 --> 00:27:51.099 guess. No, I'm joking. But I don't know. Not 00:27:51.099 --> 00:27:53.559 a terribly rated movie by any means. I think 00:27:53.559 --> 00:27:56.119 it definitely had its structure. It knew what 00:27:56.119 --> 00:27:58.599 it was doing. I don't think it was too long either. 00:27:58.819 --> 00:28:01.859 I think it was pretty well -rounded length -wise. 00:28:02.440 --> 00:28:05.420 And kept me hooked the whole time. There was 00:28:05.420 --> 00:28:09.259 never really a boring part of this movie. No, 00:28:09.400 --> 00:28:14.619 I thought it was a fantastic watch. Very entertaining. 00:28:15.549 --> 00:28:18.470 was not sad that i spent money to go see this 00:28:18.470 --> 00:28:22.650 um i would i would re -watch this gladly i would 00:28:22.650 --> 00:28:25.950 re -watch this with this with no i don't want 00:28:25.950 --> 00:28:29.829 to pay more money so it's not that i like dylan 00:28:29.829 --> 00:28:35.130 o 'brien not that much oh like free dylan o 'brien 00:28:35.130 --> 00:28:37.930 yeah free dylan oh free dylan o 'brien is dude 00:28:37.930 --> 00:28:43.390 all day but but um no like if someone hasn't 00:28:43.390 --> 00:28:46.490 seen this I would recommend this to them and 00:28:46.490 --> 00:28:49.490 watch it with them. Like, I would definitely 00:28:49.490 --> 00:28:54.430 do that. No, yeah, this is a solid movie. We 00:28:54.430 --> 00:28:57.789 gave it an 8 .4 out of 10. So this is a pretty 00:28:57.789 --> 00:28:59.670 high score relative to all of our other scores, 00:28:59.769 --> 00:29:01.150 which you can find on our website.
