Welcome to Fear of Stars, Disney Films Decoded,

00:00:02.740 --> 00:00:04.839
the podcast where - Wait, I'm sorry, switch chairs.

00:00:05.660 --> 00:00:09.720
Wait, this is the squeaky one? Yeah. So the one

00:00:09.720 --> 00:00:11.880
thing I did, and I did it wrong. That was useless,

00:00:12.039 --> 00:00:15.019
thank you though. F for effort, actually. I even

00:00:15.019 --> 00:00:16.920
sat on it and told Kili, like one of them is

00:00:16.920 --> 00:00:19.059
squeaky, and I thought it passed a squeak check.

00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:23.179
If the listener doesn't know, Kili is 300 pounds.

00:00:24.540 --> 00:00:26.739
yeah when he asked me today if when i go back

00:00:26.739 --> 00:00:28.679
to america when i look at americans like am i

00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:30.640
surprised at how fat they are and the answer

00:00:30.640 --> 00:00:33.719
is yes like they're huge like my mom told me

00:00:33.719 --> 00:00:36.280
i'm skinny on facetime and i'm like i everyone

00:00:36.280 --> 00:00:38.179
tells me i'm fat here and i have like a big belly

00:00:38.179 --> 00:00:40.179
and i would be skinny in america but you have

00:00:40.179 --> 00:00:42.719
no idea like it's not an exaggeration how big

00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:45.159
americans are you know i haven't kicked this

00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:59.990
off yet Welcome to Fear of Stairs, Desi Films

00:00:59.990 --> 00:01:02.170
Decoded, the podcast where four friends from

00:01:02.170 --> 00:01:04.150
different backgrounds unlock the world of Desi

00:01:04.150 --> 00:01:06.549
cinema. I'm Winnie, the Desi who's never been

00:01:06.549 --> 00:01:09.829
to India. Hi, I'm Kili, I'm from India, and I

00:01:09.829 --> 00:01:12.590
love films, and I'm not a zombie. Hi, my name

00:01:12.590 --> 00:01:14.950
is Nikki, and I love to party, and sometimes

00:01:14.950 --> 00:01:19.250
I turn into a zombie at these parties. I'm Adam,

00:01:19.390 --> 00:01:21.730
I'm the American movie buff, and yeah, I learned

00:01:21.730 --> 00:01:24.430
that Russian mafia parties are the best. Is that

00:01:24.430 --> 00:01:28.670
true, Nikki? I've always had an inkling that

00:01:28.670 --> 00:01:32.230
some parties are backed by the mafia, but I wouldn't

00:01:32.230 --> 00:01:35.849
know if they're the best. Have you been to a

00:01:35.849 --> 00:01:38.189
private island party? I've been to an island

00:01:38.189 --> 00:01:42.370
party, yeah. Yeah, actually, I have. It's in

00:01:42.370 --> 00:01:45.010
Gopangan, which is similar, right? I mean, there's

00:01:45.010 --> 00:01:47.769
some parallels. Some people say, you know, there's

00:01:47.769 --> 00:01:51.609
a huge Russian mafia community there, allegedly,

00:01:51.909 --> 00:01:55.640
along with some Israelis and all that. Yeah,

00:01:55.700 --> 00:01:58.040
it's a really cool group of people. It's where

00:01:58.040 --> 00:02:00.200
the full moon parties are for people that aren't

00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:02.819
aware. Were there magic pills going around at

00:02:02.819 --> 00:02:05.560
these parties? Oh, yeah, 100%, a lot of things.

00:02:05.700 --> 00:02:08.460
I wouldn't say they give you the ultimate high,

00:02:08.580 --> 00:02:12.599
but then they give you a certain good high. It

00:02:12.599 --> 00:02:14.259
doesn't really get you to the zombie state you're

00:02:14.259 --> 00:02:16.159
hoping for. No, I mean, there are things that

00:02:16.159 --> 00:02:19.680
I feel like we... We can achieve that through,

00:02:19.719 --> 00:02:21.960
like, I don't know, fentanyl, which I don't like,

00:02:22.039 --> 00:02:24.460
by the way. Have you ever been to a party where

00:02:24.460 --> 00:02:26.879
they, like, test new drugs on the people there?

00:02:26.900 --> 00:02:29.759
Oh, that's so ridiculous. Like, it's in every

00:02:29.759 --> 00:02:31.819
movie. Like, we're introducing a new drug to

00:02:31.819 --> 00:02:34.120
this party, and I've, like, never seen a party

00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:35.979
where they're like, everyone tests out this brand

00:02:35.979 --> 00:02:37.500
new drug, and everyone's like, yeah, give it

00:02:37.500 --> 00:02:39.560
to me. I have no idea what this is. Like, that's

00:02:39.560 --> 00:02:41.560
crazy, I think. I don't think I'm underground

00:02:41.560 --> 00:02:44.379
enough to know if there are... those kinds of

00:02:44.379 --> 00:02:46.080
parties yeah we're just not cool enough to get

00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:48.719
invited to these parties but you know one thing

00:02:48.719 --> 00:02:51.439
one idea remember winnie how you keep saying

00:02:51.439 --> 00:02:55.340
that we should go to goa yeah yeah i do want

00:02:55.340 --> 00:02:57.360
to go to go i think this movie really sold it

00:02:57.360 --> 00:02:59.419
i don't know for you guys but i'm ready to go

00:02:59.419 --> 00:03:02.000
party in goa for me it was always imagine is

00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:04.870
light Those hot, hot service workers that were

00:03:04.870 --> 00:03:06.490
going to Goa, I want to go hook up with them.

00:03:07.389 --> 00:03:09.889
So that was like my first reason. But this second

00:03:09.889 --> 00:03:12.509
movie cemented it. I heard this film was shot

00:03:12.509 --> 00:03:15.490
in Mauritius. Mauritius, yeah. Only some scenes

00:03:15.490 --> 00:03:19.250
were like Goa, yeah. But they had a lot of Indians

00:03:19.250 --> 00:03:22.250
there. Well, Mauritius is an island that there's

00:03:22.250 --> 00:03:24.310
a lot of Indo -Caribbeans. So a lot of people

00:03:24.310 --> 00:03:28.469
from Indian ethnicity backgrounds and Africans.

00:03:28.490 --> 00:03:31.169
So yeah, it's a mixture. What movie are we talking

00:03:31.169 --> 00:03:33.509
about? Yeah. What is this? This is a hint. Goa.

00:03:34.930 --> 00:03:38.689
Keeley, what is the movie? Go Goa Gone. Go Goa

00:03:38.689 --> 00:03:41.930
Gone. You recommended this. Yeah. It's the only

00:03:41.930 --> 00:03:46.210
zombie films made in India. And a stoner comedy

00:03:46.210 --> 00:03:49.270
too. So like a stoner zombie comedy, which is

00:03:49.270 --> 00:03:52.189
probably very rare and the first for Indian cinema.

00:03:52.330 --> 00:03:54.969
So, okay. I don't know if you guys will get this

00:03:54.969 --> 00:03:57.889
reference. When I was watching it. To me, it

00:03:57.889 --> 00:04:01.930
was Workaholics meets Dead Island. I've seen

00:04:01.930 --> 00:04:04.810
a bit of Workaholics. Adam Devine, right? Correct.

00:04:05.030 --> 00:04:07.229
Have you seen Workaholics? No. I'm surprised.

00:04:07.349 --> 00:04:09.349
It was like on Comedy Central about three dudes

00:04:09.349 --> 00:04:11.969
in a call center. They're like friends. They

00:04:11.969 --> 00:04:14.150
made like a Netflix movie here and there too

00:04:14.150 --> 00:04:16.129
together. I forgot the name. It was a big show.

00:04:16.370 --> 00:04:18.790
And then, you know, Dead Island, the video game.

00:04:18.889 --> 00:04:22.329
Yeah, the video game. It seemed like both of

00:04:22.329 --> 00:04:24.790
those mashed together, right? And I checked.

00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:27.779
And they both, both of those properties, one

00:04:27.779 --> 00:04:29.819
was a TV show, one was a video game. Dead Island

00:04:29.819 --> 00:04:32.240
is like a zombie game that takes place on like

00:04:32.240 --> 00:04:35.040
a tropical island. It is, yeah. And Workaholics

00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:36.600
is like three dudes at a call center and they

00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:38.459
just combine those. Both those properties came

00:04:38.459 --> 00:04:41.699
out in 2011 and then this movie came out in 2013.

00:04:42.240 --> 00:04:44.720
So I guarantee that they saw both of those and

00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:46.470
were like, all right. do it you see i thought

00:04:46.470 --> 00:04:48.589
it was a mixture of like harold and kumar meets

00:04:48.589 --> 00:04:50.750
zombie land because you have that stoner comedy

00:04:50.750 --> 00:04:53.310
with two best friends who are on an adventure

00:04:53.310 --> 00:04:55.490
trying to figure something out or have like a

00:04:55.490 --> 00:04:57.310
motive and then you have the zombie component

00:04:57.310 --> 00:04:59.410
which is like zombie land i don't know what year

00:04:59.410 --> 00:05:01.810
zombie land came out harold and kumar was much

00:05:01.810 --> 00:05:05.370
older for sure zombie land was 2009 yeah i saw

00:05:05.370 --> 00:05:07.370
that so they must have seen that too i mean it

00:05:07.370 --> 00:05:10.730
has a bunch of influences for sure i was surprised

00:05:10.730 --> 00:05:13.480
at how yeah we talked about how western it is

00:05:13.480 --> 00:05:16.500
and how liberal they are like they're smoking

00:05:16.500 --> 00:05:18.939
weed the whole time but there's not even ratings

00:05:18.939 --> 00:05:21.240
on the movie to account for that so they keep

00:05:21.240 --> 00:05:22.939
saying like cigarettes are bad for your health

00:05:22.939 --> 00:05:24.740
even though they're showing like joints and stuff

00:05:24.740 --> 00:05:27.199
and i was like they don't even have like advisory

00:05:27.199 --> 00:05:30.060
messages that are advanced enough for this movie

00:05:30.530 --> 00:05:33.069
True. Yeah. There was a scene where the guy was

00:05:33.069 --> 00:05:34.730
starting to make out with the woman in like an

00:05:34.730 --> 00:05:36.149
office setting. And I was telling Kelly like,

00:05:36.230 --> 00:05:38.689
whoa, this was allowed back in Hollywood, in

00:05:38.689 --> 00:05:41.110
Bollywood movies. It has everything. It has like

00:05:41.110 --> 00:05:44.069
promiscuous sex. It has like, yeah, women sleeping

00:05:44.069 --> 00:05:47.149
around, like women in bikinis, drug use, excessive

00:05:47.149 --> 00:05:51.470
drug use, like violence, swearing. It was super

00:05:51.470 --> 00:05:55.470
Western, I guess I want to say. I guess I haven't

00:05:55.470 --> 00:05:57.170
felt this way about movies since Deli Belli.

00:05:57.230 --> 00:06:00.290
And there is a common thread. Yeah. I looked

00:06:00.290 --> 00:06:02.910
up the movie and one thing, one movie that people

00:06:02.910 --> 00:06:05.490
keep comparing it or like grouping up together

00:06:05.490 --> 00:06:09.250
is Deli Belli. Maybe because of its like offbeat

00:06:09.250 --> 00:06:12.709
humor. I'm quoting this now. And it's like, it

00:06:12.709 --> 00:06:15.290
has like a very unique style of filming. And

00:06:15.290 --> 00:06:20.949
Vir does. Good point. Yeah. And it's like when

00:06:20.949 --> 00:06:23.970
we were starting the film, like, so we were like

00:06:23.970 --> 00:06:30.029
smoking some. Crack cocaine? No, no, no. Some

00:06:30.029 --> 00:06:35.509
weed for our headache and stuff. It was the exact

00:06:35.509 --> 00:06:37.810
same scene. In the exact same scene, these two

00:06:37.810 --> 00:06:40.050
people looking at TV and they're smoking two

00:06:40.050 --> 00:06:43.370
joints and we're on this side of the TV smoking

00:06:43.370 --> 00:06:46.730
a joint, sitting in the same position and they're

00:06:46.730 --> 00:06:50.149
smoking. It was super funny. I love the movie

00:06:50.149 --> 00:06:53.790
from that second. It was very like, you instantly

00:06:53.790 --> 00:06:55.649
get the whole friendship dynamic. I do really

00:06:55.649 --> 00:06:57.730
like that first scene when they're all like smoking

00:06:57.730 --> 00:07:00.569
weed and fighting over like who paid what and

00:07:00.569 --> 00:07:02.990
who should take out the trash and they like list

00:07:02.990 --> 00:07:04.889
each other's grievances and stuff and you immediately

00:07:04.889 --> 00:07:06.970
get the dynamic of these three people that like

00:07:06.970 --> 00:07:09.689
hate each other but also have grown up together

00:07:09.689 --> 00:07:11.629
and can't live without each other and so they're

00:07:11.629 --> 00:07:14.600
just like always gonna be in each other's lives

00:07:14.600 --> 00:07:17.019
probably fighting all the time but like it's

00:07:17.019 --> 00:07:19.860
very like loving oh so like this podcast yeah

00:07:19.860 --> 00:07:21.620
it's exactly like this well that's why they were

00:07:21.620 --> 00:07:26.540
staring at the mirror watching yeah but their

00:07:26.540 --> 00:07:28.660
banter was golden it made the movie like the

00:07:28.660 --> 00:07:31.199
dialogue between them was so rich and witty and

00:07:31.199 --> 00:07:34.420
funny they're a bunch of lazy stoners that don't

00:07:34.420 --> 00:07:36.300
want to do anything and they work some dead -end

00:07:36.300 --> 00:07:39.839
job at a call center right i thought it's like

00:07:39.839 --> 00:07:42.279
a it I mean, it can be call center. But this

00:07:42.279 --> 00:07:44.220
call center, they usually have the phone. You're

00:07:44.220 --> 00:07:46.319
right. It's a white collar. They're all in like

00:07:46.319 --> 00:07:48.500
a white collar office job. Yeah. But they go

00:07:48.500 --> 00:07:50.500
through massive ups and downs because like they'll

00:07:50.500 --> 00:07:52.459
be partying hard and say, okay, I'm going to

00:07:52.459 --> 00:07:54.360
quit everything. I'm going to quit alcohol, drugs,

00:07:54.480 --> 00:07:56.139
partying. And then next thing you know, I'm going

00:07:56.139 --> 00:07:57.819
to go all out. I'm going to party as much as

00:07:57.819 --> 00:08:00.420
I can. This movie takes a lot of cues from like

00:08:00.420 --> 00:08:04.500
the Apatow films. You know, like. Yes. Knocked

00:08:04.500 --> 00:08:07.240
up in 40 year old where it's like, or Pineapple

00:08:07.240 --> 00:08:10.370
Express. It reminded me a lot of like. yeah weed's

00:08:10.370 --> 00:08:12.930
fun but like it's time to grow up as well and

00:08:12.930 --> 00:08:15.129
like what kind of being an adult and moving on

00:08:15.129 --> 00:08:17.829
from that looks like i don't know i thought we

00:08:17.829 --> 00:08:20.110
kill and i thought this movie was like an endorsement

00:08:20.110 --> 00:08:22.709
of weed just say no to other drugs but weed's

00:08:22.709 --> 00:08:25.569
okay don't take don't take random pills yeah

00:08:25.569 --> 00:08:28.430
but everything in moderation and when to move

00:08:28.430 --> 00:08:31.769
on and you know grow as an adult it doesn't mean

00:08:31.769 --> 00:08:33.370
you don't have to smoke weed but you have to

00:08:33.370 --> 00:08:35.990
like you know start having agency in your life

00:08:35.990 --> 00:08:41.919
i think That's the journey of Hardik. Correct.

00:08:42.139 --> 00:08:44.379
Yeah. So let's introduce the characters. Yeah.

00:08:44.759 --> 00:08:48.340
Yeah. So, you know, you have your typical, like

00:08:48.340 --> 00:08:50.500
any other good stoner comedy, you have like a

00:08:50.500 --> 00:08:54.940
group of dim -witted, like stoner friends. They're

00:08:54.940 --> 00:08:57.100
all stoner. Two of them are stoners, to be exact.

00:08:57.220 --> 00:08:59.940
You have like the two main characters, right?

00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:03.740
One is called Hardik. He's like the most promiscuous

00:09:03.740 --> 00:09:06.100
guy. He's like a... You know, what we would call

00:09:06.100 --> 00:09:08.779
a fuckboy. Playboy. Playboy. You know, he likes

00:09:08.779 --> 00:09:11.879
to sleep around. Like, tries to be Johnny Bravo.

00:09:12.440 --> 00:09:15.639
Womanizes. He tries to womanize. He's a womanizer,

00:09:15.720 --> 00:09:19.019
basically. And the other one is Love. He's, like,

00:09:19.080 --> 00:09:22.919
the hopeless romantic. He's, like, the guy that's,

00:09:22.960 --> 00:09:25.620
like, easily, like, smitten with any girl who

00:09:25.620 --> 00:09:28.399
comes to talk to him. But they're both stoners.

00:09:28.399 --> 00:09:31.279
You know, they love to just smoke. Smoke some

00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:34.379
weed and, like... You see it in a lot of Western

00:09:34.379 --> 00:09:37.360
movies. The names are very on the nose. Hard

00:09:37.360 --> 00:09:40.600
Dick has a hard dick the entire movie and it's

00:09:40.600 --> 00:09:44.019
just horny. Love, L -U -V, just falls in love

00:09:44.019 --> 00:09:48.340
with every girl. It's pretty on the nose. It's

00:09:48.340 --> 00:09:50.620
a stoner one. They have to really make it unsubtle

00:09:50.620 --> 00:09:52.679
for you. That's the thing with a lot of Indian

00:09:52.679 --> 00:09:55.919
movies, I feel. You know what it is? It's like

00:09:55.919 --> 00:09:59.720
a Kojima game where it's like Death Man. Yeah,

00:09:59.720 --> 00:10:02.360
yeah, yeah. Fat Man. Yeah, Fat Man and like characters.

00:10:03.000 --> 00:10:05.580
That happens in Indian films a lot. Like they

00:10:05.580 --> 00:10:08.759
hammer the nails a lot of time and then like

00:10:08.759 --> 00:10:11.940
where the silence can work or like so no dialogue

00:10:11.940 --> 00:10:14.000
needed. Like they would extra put a dialogue

00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:16.779
over the visual to make it like super obvious.

00:10:16.940 --> 00:10:20.429
Yeah, that's like a volume. uh commonality yeah

00:10:20.429 --> 00:10:22.490
what's the third roommate's name there's a third

00:10:22.490 --> 00:10:24.769
roommate uh he's there he's not like the other

00:10:24.769 --> 00:10:27.429
two his name is bunny he said bunny he's like

00:10:27.429 --> 00:10:31.169
a little innocent you know he's like the one

00:10:31.169 --> 00:10:35.070
in he has big ears and fucks a lot he's the he's

00:10:35.070 --> 00:10:37.389
the he's the goody two shoes in the dynamic right

00:10:37.389 --> 00:10:40.889
he's the the the the smart one the the uptight

00:10:40.889 --> 00:10:45.799
uh dude that just Is their bitch. He takes the

00:10:45.799 --> 00:10:48.320
job seriously. And he got them their jobs. It's

00:10:48.320 --> 00:10:51.100
later revealed. So he's the responsible one.

00:10:51.159 --> 00:10:53.919
That keeps taking care of them. But they bring

00:10:53.919 --> 00:10:56.899
the fun for him. Because he's antisocial without

00:10:56.899 --> 00:11:00.799
them. But when they were floundering. In front

00:11:00.799 --> 00:11:03.159
of zombies. He was the first one to fight the

00:11:03.159 --> 00:11:05.899
zombies. Super hardcore. He's the most adult.

00:11:06.940 --> 00:11:12.100
And then you have. I'll get in the plot later,

00:11:12.220 --> 00:11:15.539
but like you have the female lead, Luna, who

00:11:15.539 --> 00:11:18.500
I feel is only good at taking her clothes off.

00:11:19.399 --> 00:11:22.980
Every shot you see, okay, I know it sounds weird,

00:11:23.019 --> 00:11:25.120
but like every shot that I see her, she's always

00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:26.980
taking her shirt off. Wait, except for the one

00:11:26.980 --> 00:11:28.820
scene where they're doing like, have you been

00:11:28.820 --> 00:11:31.059
bitten by zombies check? When did she take her

00:11:31.059 --> 00:11:33.159
clothes off? She's always in her bikini the whole

00:11:33.159 --> 00:11:36.070
time. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. The introduction scene.

00:11:36.169 --> 00:11:38.090
She was in the... That was a joke. But like,

00:11:38.190 --> 00:11:41.129
yeah. But amongst the... Apart from Boris, she

00:11:41.129 --> 00:11:43.750
was the first one to kill a zombie. Yeah. Interesting

00:11:43.750 --> 00:11:48.549
note. So this actress won Miss India Universe.

00:11:49.009 --> 00:11:52.450
Oh, okay. And then she placed, I think, the year

00:11:52.450 --> 00:11:55.909
later in America for Miss India. Wow. Well, she

00:11:55.909 --> 00:11:58.149
is pretty. She is gorgeous. Yeah, she's pretty.

00:11:58.370 --> 00:12:01.769
It's Luna. Because they needed a full moon party.

00:12:01.970 --> 00:12:05.220
Oh, my goodness. And then there's another character,

00:12:05.279 --> 00:12:07.700
which I think it's weird that they, he's like

00:12:07.700 --> 00:12:10.480
in every promotional material you see, he's like

00:12:10.480 --> 00:12:12.820
supposed to be the main, main character, the

00:12:12.820 --> 00:12:17.159
lead actor. But his name is Boris. Boris. Boris.

00:12:17.220 --> 00:12:19.320
He's the director, right? He's the director.

00:12:19.440 --> 00:12:22.100
He was a producer. He was a producer? Yeah. Okay.

00:12:22.179 --> 00:12:24.860
Okay. That's why he made himself look so cool.

00:12:24.980 --> 00:12:29.279
So cool. Basically like a game character. So

00:12:29.279 --> 00:12:32.090
anyone understand Russian here? Or, like, how

00:12:32.090 --> 00:12:35.570
they sound? No. No, because I want to know, like,

00:12:35.570 --> 00:12:38.669
how good his imitation was of Russian. I mean,

00:12:38.669 --> 00:12:40.470
he imitated a white man pretty well. This is

00:12:40.470 --> 00:12:42.830
basically an Indian man pretending to be a white

00:12:42.830 --> 00:12:44.470
Russian man. All right, there's the... He had

00:12:44.470 --> 00:12:47.250
blonde hair. There's my question again. Is it

00:12:47.250 --> 00:12:50.909
whitewashing or anything? Is it... No, I mean,

00:12:50.909 --> 00:12:53.590
he comes out at the end that he's just... Well,

00:12:53.629 --> 00:12:56.309
can you explain to the listener, first of all,

00:12:56.309 --> 00:12:58.330
like, this character? Okay, Boris is, like...

00:12:58.509 --> 00:13:01.110
So, okay, we'll get back into the beginning,

00:13:01.210 --> 00:13:03.110
but, like, throughout the film, they go to this

00:13:03.110 --> 00:13:05.370
island, right? And then they meet, like, this

00:13:05.370 --> 00:13:09.690
Russian mobster who's, like, kind of, like, the

00:13:09.690 --> 00:13:14.309
sole perpetrator of the cataclysm, the sequence

00:13:14.309 --> 00:13:17.230
of events that happen in the movie. We thought

00:13:17.230 --> 00:13:20.309
he's Russian, but then it turns out, like, not

00:13:20.309 --> 00:13:23.090
long after, we find out that he's actually Indian,

00:13:23.269 --> 00:13:26.649
who's, like, just been ingrained into the Russian

00:13:26.649 --> 00:13:30.059
mob. That's from my understanding. Well, he says

00:13:30.059 --> 00:13:32.320
that he drank so much vodka, his blood basically

00:13:32.320 --> 00:13:36.039
turned into Russian. Yeah, his blood turned Russian

00:13:36.039 --> 00:13:39.519
because he drank so much vodka. And he dyed his

00:13:39.519 --> 00:13:43.440
hair blonde, has sunglasses, wears like the Russian

00:13:43.440 --> 00:13:46.340
clothes and speaks in a Russian accent. But did

00:13:46.340 --> 00:13:49.070
you? think something was up with his appearance

00:13:49.070 --> 00:13:50.690
when you first saw him? Or did you think he was

00:13:50.690 --> 00:13:52.870
Russian? I legit thought he was Russian. Honestly.

00:13:53.049 --> 00:13:55.570
He had me fooled. Well, Kili knew he was Saif

00:13:55.570 --> 00:13:57.809
Ali Khan. Yeah, so I know Saif Ali Khan. So I

00:13:57.809 --> 00:14:00.629
was like, something is up about him. Like, I

00:14:00.629 --> 00:14:03.549
didn't... So at first, I was like, really? Like,

00:14:03.549 --> 00:14:05.429
he's playing a Russian character? Because in

00:14:05.429 --> 00:14:07.269
India, like, there are a lot of Russians. Like,

00:14:07.330 --> 00:14:10.029
I've seen Russians playing characters in Bollywood

00:14:10.029 --> 00:14:12.750
films. I'm like, so they just got, like, an Indian

00:14:12.750 --> 00:14:14.870
guy? So something must be off. So I think they

00:14:14.870 --> 00:14:18.490
kind of wanted to give that... sense in audience

00:14:18.490 --> 00:14:20.750
like Indian audience that like something is off

00:14:20.750 --> 00:14:22.690
like when you see Saif Ali Khan playing a Russian

00:14:22.690 --> 00:14:26.230
dude but like yes listening hearing from Nikki

00:14:26.230 --> 00:14:28.370
that like he thought he was Russian that's that's

00:14:28.370 --> 00:14:30.730
a good thing because he doesn't know who is I

00:14:30.730 --> 00:14:32.909
didn't know either I didn't know he looked funny

00:14:32.909 --> 00:14:36.289
he is loving this role like he looks like he's

00:14:36.289 --> 00:14:39.230
having a blast yeah like he like clearly as the

00:14:39.230 --> 00:14:41.429
producer was like I want to do that I want to

00:14:41.429 --> 00:14:42.950
be on the poster like I just want to have fun

00:14:42.950 --> 00:14:46.019
being Boris did you know Winnie Well, yeah, because

00:14:46.019 --> 00:14:47.700
I watched the movie with Killy. So he was like,

00:14:47.720 --> 00:14:49.960
that's Saif Ali Khan. And I was like, once you

00:14:49.960 --> 00:14:52.700
point it out, it's pretty obvious to tell. Would

00:14:52.700 --> 00:14:55.799
you not have understood that he's Saif Ali Khan?

00:14:55.899 --> 00:14:59.080
But maybe later. I don't know. I feel like he

00:14:59.080 --> 00:15:02.279
still looked brown, but his skin looked bronze.

00:15:02.519 --> 00:15:04.220
I think I would have maybe thought he was like

00:15:04.220 --> 00:15:05.720
a mixed kid. I would not have been able to tell

00:15:05.720 --> 00:15:08.320
that's Saif Ali Khan. Maybe like a halfie. As

00:15:08.320 --> 00:15:12.059
far as like, is it, you know, cultural appropriation?

00:15:12.059 --> 00:15:16.240
It's so hard. I kind of always lean towards if

00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:18.139
you're punching down, it's bad. And if you're

00:15:18.139 --> 00:15:21.299
punching up, it's fine. Between India and Russia,

00:15:21.379 --> 00:15:22.879
though, I don't know who's punching up or down.

00:15:22.940 --> 00:15:25.659
Yeah, that's interesting. I don't know. Does

00:15:25.659 --> 00:15:27.700
anyone have a better answer? I think they're

00:15:27.700 --> 00:15:31.059
punching up pretty much here. It wasn't like

00:15:31.059 --> 00:15:33.159
making fun of a Russian. Right. That's true.

00:15:33.320 --> 00:15:35.139
And then he comes out as Indian pretty early

00:15:35.139 --> 00:15:36.960
on in the movie. And it becomes kind of like

00:15:36.960 --> 00:15:38.740
a joke that this Indian man is pretending to

00:15:38.740 --> 00:15:41.269
be Russian. yeah i think they wanted to do the

00:15:41.269 --> 00:15:43.490
joke and also save the stick like kind of a way

00:15:43.490 --> 00:15:45.409
like you know like do the joke but like you know

00:15:45.409 --> 00:15:48.490
doing it like we were aware that like we are

00:15:48.490 --> 00:15:51.370
doing that joke kind of way so it's like that

00:15:51.370 --> 00:15:54.230
kind of role playing here like so they wanted

00:15:54.230 --> 00:15:56.789
like he wanted to let's say like he's a producer

00:15:56.789 --> 00:15:59.620
he might have wanted to do like okay i was thinking

00:15:59.620 --> 00:16:01.919
like maybe the writer wrote his russian character

00:16:01.919 --> 00:16:04.019
and he's a producer and he saw that i was like

00:16:04.019 --> 00:16:06.379
i want to play that they're like no but you cannot

00:16:06.379 --> 00:16:09.080
play that character he's like a russian character

00:16:09.080 --> 00:16:11.980
and he's like i can pretend to be a russian because

00:16:11.980 --> 00:16:14.419
that's super cool character i can see like i'm

00:16:14.419 --> 00:16:16.940
just i'm just like this is probably his only

00:16:16.940 --> 00:16:19.600
opportunity in life to be a white man and he

00:16:19.600 --> 00:16:23.740
just like jumped on it He says at one point that

00:16:23.740 --> 00:16:28.019
I was like towards lighter color. I mean, which

00:16:28.019 --> 00:16:30.740
is like contextually not wrong. Like in South

00:16:30.740 --> 00:16:33.840
African is like pretty much lighter skin color

00:16:33.840 --> 00:16:37.299
than average Indians for sure. It reminds me

00:16:37.299 --> 00:16:39.600
of Tropic Thunder. That's where I was getting

00:16:39.600 --> 00:16:42.620
at. Robert Downey Jr. playing a black guy. Yeah,

00:16:42.620 --> 00:16:46.320
I was about to say that. Yeah, I mean, in Tropic

00:16:46.320 --> 00:16:47.860
Thunder, people always bring that up and they're

00:16:47.860 --> 00:16:50.360
like, could they have made that today? yes because

00:16:50.360 --> 00:16:52.679
he's not playing a black person he's playing

00:16:52.679 --> 00:16:54.899
an actor playing a black character and that's

00:16:54.899 --> 00:16:57.960
the joke is like he's being a pretentious actor

00:16:57.960 --> 00:17:00.860
who's like australian like that's the joke this

00:17:00.860 --> 00:17:04.779
yeah kind of too like he's just he's not playing

00:17:04.779 --> 00:17:07.079
a russian he's playing a dude pretending to be

00:17:07.079 --> 00:17:09.519
russian which makes it a little bit funnier because

00:17:09.519 --> 00:17:11.720
you're making fun of the indian character pretending

00:17:11.720 --> 00:17:14.539
to be russian I don't know. I didn't feel dirty

00:17:14.539 --> 00:17:16.420
watching it, so I think it's fine. I didn't find

00:17:16.420 --> 00:17:18.000
it offensive. I didn't find it offensive. I just

00:17:18.000 --> 00:17:21.099
wondered like, is there like a thin line somewhere?

00:17:21.700 --> 00:17:23.640
But like the whitewashing aspect. If a white

00:17:23.640 --> 00:17:25.819
guy did like a cool, he's like, I'm a cool Indian.

00:17:25.880 --> 00:17:27.460
Yeah, he'd be canceled immediately, obviously.

00:17:27.660 --> 00:17:29.440
Like Justin Trudeau pulled that off and it didn't

00:17:29.440 --> 00:17:30.759
really work. Well, kind of what you said about

00:17:30.759 --> 00:17:33.339
punching up or down, right? There is a dynamic

00:17:33.339 --> 00:17:35.599
in the cultural historical context also, especially

00:17:35.599 --> 00:17:37.779
in India that you have to be aware of. This is

00:17:37.779 --> 00:17:41.759
more like punching parallel. But in the context

00:17:41.759 --> 00:17:43.920
of just seeing pictures of Modi and Putin holding

00:17:43.920 --> 00:17:47.440
hands, it does check out. It's Agent Smith versus

00:17:47.440 --> 00:17:49.319
Neo just kind of hitting each other in the face.

00:17:49.559 --> 00:17:51.640
So this film was directed by this director duo

00:17:51.640 --> 00:17:54.640
Raj and DK. So it's like two people, like director

00:17:54.640 --> 00:17:57.259
duo. I remember watching one of their films before

00:17:57.259 --> 00:17:59.539
that. It's called Shore in the City. That was

00:17:59.539 --> 00:18:02.839
also like very, it's a very cool film. It's like

00:18:02.839 --> 00:18:05.799
a bunch of characters in Mumbai and then like

00:18:05.799 --> 00:18:08.240
things happening. Kind of an anthology treatment

00:18:08.240 --> 00:18:10.559
in a film, like no multiple characters and then

00:18:10.559 --> 00:18:12.279
there are stories and then they're all coming

00:18:12.279 --> 00:18:14.240
together kind of a film. And that was pretty

00:18:14.240 --> 00:18:17.279
fun. And this is the second film, I guess, from,

00:18:17.319 --> 00:18:19.700
I mean, second Free Children film, I guess. Have

00:18:19.700 --> 00:18:21.380
they done anything else since? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:18:21.400 --> 00:18:25.339
They have done a web series that's been very

00:18:25.339 --> 00:18:28.359
popular in India called The Family Man. It's

00:18:28.359 --> 00:18:31.839
about some undercover agent or something or being

00:18:31.839 --> 00:18:36.980
a family man. And yeah, so that was quite a hit.

00:18:37.059 --> 00:18:40.359
I saw a lot of ruckus around it, but I never

00:18:40.359 --> 00:18:43.660
watched it though. Did you see when the credits

00:18:43.660 --> 00:18:46.119
were starting up for this film? Like number one,

00:18:46.119 --> 00:18:48.200
they have a ton of sponsorships to pay for everything,

00:18:48.279 --> 00:18:50.240
but then it was like sponsored by Volkswagen

00:18:50.240 --> 00:18:53.880
and it stars a Volkswagen car. Did you see that?

00:18:53.880 --> 00:18:56.180
It's like starring this Volkswagen car. I was

00:18:56.180 --> 00:18:57.960
like, damn. I think it was the car they used

00:18:57.960 --> 00:19:01.759
to go to Goa. Yeah. But the car didn't seem very

00:19:01.759 --> 00:19:05.660
nice. No, it was just a regular ass car. It didn't

00:19:05.660 --> 00:19:07.359
seem like an advertisement. It didn't seem great.

00:19:07.539 --> 00:19:10.000
Or it kept getting into car trouble too. So I

00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:11.920
don't really know why that was starring that

00:19:11.920 --> 00:19:14.799
car. Maybe Volkswagen was targeting the customer

00:19:14.799 --> 00:19:16.619
base that just wants a small family. Stoners

00:19:16.619 --> 00:19:18.980
that have no money. The small family car. You

00:19:18.980 --> 00:19:21.230
know, like a small hatchback. they just won i

00:19:21.230 --> 00:19:23.150
mean that's a big market in india like small

00:19:23.150 --> 00:19:25.630
hatchbacks and volkswagen maybe might have been

00:19:25.630 --> 00:19:28.150
like seen as like you know like a bigger like

00:19:28.150 --> 00:19:32.150
a like a better company exp more expensive company

00:19:32.150 --> 00:19:34.029
so they're like kind of okay we have like a cozy

00:19:34.029 --> 00:19:36.390
car you can just go yeah but the whole time because

00:19:36.390 --> 00:19:38.029
that is in the very beginning of the film and

00:19:38.029 --> 00:19:39.410
i'm just waiting for the car to do something

00:19:39.410 --> 00:19:43.089
cool And it just never does. Because I'm like,

00:19:43.109 --> 00:19:44.430
there's got to be a moment where like, that's

00:19:44.430 --> 00:19:46.809
a cool car. Like they get out of a scene or they

00:19:46.809 --> 00:19:49.210
drive through a wall or something. Nothing. They

00:19:49.210 --> 00:19:51.309
kill a bunch of zombies in the car. Is that how

00:19:51.309 --> 00:19:52.930
you want to like advertise the car though? I

00:19:52.930 --> 00:19:55.670
don't know. Let's run over people. Plow people

00:19:55.670 --> 00:19:59.759
over. Wasn't that Boris's car? Was that? That

00:19:59.759 --> 00:20:02.839
was a Jeep. That was a Jeep. It looked way cooler

00:20:02.839 --> 00:20:05.259
with the scissor doors and shit. That was amazing.

00:20:05.779 --> 00:20:08.359
And that got free advertising. And this shitty

00:20:08.359 --> 00:20:12.420
ass Volvo got nothing. Yeah. There's one thing.

00:20:12.460 --> 00:20:15.119
One thing I want to mention right for me is that

00:20:15.119 --> 00:20:19.680
there was like a huge blast in the past for me

00:20:19.680 --> 00:20:22.019
at the very beginning. The thing that they were

00:20:22.019 --> 00:20:25.990
watching. Indian Thriller. that's what they're

00:20:25.990 --> 00:20:29.329
calling that's the me yeah thank you it was like

00:20:29.329 --> 00:20:32.190
a music video that back in my school we used

00:20:32.190 --> 00:20:34.509
to spread this clip everywhere we're saying like

00:20:34.509 --> 00:20:36.890
oh my god look at this indian thriller that's

00:20:36.890 --> 00:20:39.069
what we called it oh that's what it's called

00:20:39.069 --> 00:20:41.490
but then i never thought i'd see the the clip

00:20:41.490 --> 00:20:43.710
again like they were watching it but i think

00:20:43.710 --> 00:20:46.480
it's from a movie yeah for sure yeah i don't

00:20:46.480 --> 00:20:48.380
know it's like an old movie i mean i even googled

00:20:48.380 --> 00:20:50.400
indian thriller and that it'll come up literally

00:20:50.400 --> 00:20:52.319
if you just googled indian thriller that's like

00:20:52.319 --> 00:20:54.380
the first thing that'll come up yeah i never

00:20:54.380 --> 00:20:56.759
watched it but like it looked very meme worthy

00:20:56.759 --> 00:20:59.680
yeah it's like you can tell like the guy was

00:20:59.680 --> 00:21:03.819
wearing like michael jackson's famous red outfit

00:21:03.819 --> 00:21:06.740
from thriller it is funny i mean this is 2013

00:21:06.740 --> 00:21:11.440
how are they watching this there's no like on

00:21:11.440 --> 00:21:14.079
the tv I don't know how they're doing this yet.

00:21:14.140 --> 00:21:18.619
It's like a weird VHS tape. On a TV though? I

00:21:18.619 --> 00:21:23.750
don't know. Yeah. HDMI. There were already HDMI

00:21:23.750 --> 00:21:26.950
cables. Some laptop hooked into a TV. If you

00:21:26.950 --> 00:21:29.170
want to go into the technicalities, that's probably

00:21:29.170 --> 00:21:31.309
it. Okay, thank you. We can move on now. That

00:21:31.309 --> 00:21:33.829
was my big hang -up of the movie. They couldn't

00:21:33.829 --> 00:21:36.609
change... Oh, no. It was on a TV because they

00:21:36.609 --> 00:21:39.789
wanted to change the channels. It was just cable.

00:21:40.210 --> 00:21:43.789
It was just cable. Jeez, Adam. Indians are civilized

00:21:43.789 --> 00:21:48.170
people. I was like, how is that possible? I think

00:21:48.170 --> 00:21:50.809
Adam was thinking from a meme point of view.

00:21:50.829 --> 00:21:52.990
yeah yeah it was like where would the media be

00:21:52.990 --> 00:21:55.190
playing how we watch like youtube or something

00:21:55.190 --> 00:21:57.150
like that funny but yeah maybe they were like

00:21:57.150 --> 00:21:59.869
that cinema was on that film was on in some channel

00:21:59.869 --> 00:22:02.630
back in the day you just talked about memes because

00:22:02.630 --> 00:22:04.250
like there was no way to show your friends what

00:22:04.250 --> 00:22:07.279
you were talking about you know actually that's

00:22:07.279 --> 00:22:09.539
2013 that's when you were in high school nikki

00:22:09.539 --> 00:22:11.539
so this meme was probably going viral at about

00:22:11.539 --> 00:22:13.819
that time this movie was made actually i was

00:22:13.819 --> 00:22:16.640
in college by then but like the clip was circulating

00:22:16.640 --> 00:22:19.819
even way before that yeah when i was in middle

00:22:19.819 --> 00:22:22.420
school remember like how what roughly what which

00:22:22.420 --> 00:22:25.880
year yeah you were in college in 2013 i was in

00:22:25.880 --> 00:22:30.369
college 2013 so it does add up uh i know but

00:22:30.369 --> 00:22:35.029
the clip the clip is like literally like it went

00:22:35.029 --> 00:22:38.450
viral around like 2006 2007 yeah yeah that's

00:22:38.450 --> 00:22:40.890
what it had to be around that time i was just

00:22:40.890 --> 00:22:43.329
curious yeah because yeah because i i didn't

00:22:43.329 --> 00:22:45.450
know and so it's like it's very interesting that

00:22:45.450 --> 00:22:48.109
it was like viral in thailand as well i remember

00:22:48.109 --> 00:22:50.869
my bully quoting the song goodly man man man

00:22:50.869 --> 00:22:52.869
man he was like that well i think he had a lot

00:22:52.869 --> 00:22:54.930
of thai indian friends let's put context in that

00:22:54.930 --> 00:22:58.740
too actually it was a lot of thai people I think

00:22:58.740 --> 00:23:00.420
we were being a little racist about it, but okay.

00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:02.920
Yeah, that tends to happen in schools in Thailand.

00:23:03.240 --> 00:23:05.319
Everyone that showed Indian thriller was making

00:23:05.319 --> 00:23:08.240
fun of Indian culture. I thought it was cool.

00:23:08.380 --> 00:23:10.240
I don't know. I guess maybe I saw it a little

00:23:10.240 --> 00:23:13.200
differently. Not to toot my own horn, but how

00:23:13.200 --> 00:23:16.859
much of a contrarian I can be. You win the not

00:23:16.859 --> 00:23:20.400
racist award. Okay, so anyway, let's just get

00:23:20.400 --> 00:23:22.960
into it. right straight out the bat we know they're

00:23:22.960 --> 00:23:24.660
stoners they're like sitting in your typical

00:23:24.660 --> 00:23:27.539
couch looking all baked having a lot of food

00:23:27.539 --> 00:23:30.140
and snacks i was looking for a bong but there

00:23:30.140 --> 00:23:32.779
was no bong yeah just joints right no there was

00:23:32.779 --> 00:23:34.799
a bong on the table and a hookah as well a shisha

00:23:34.799 --> 00:23:37.019
pipe yeah bong but they never smoked they didn't

00:23:37.019 --> 00:23:38.740
smoke the bong yeah but yeah i was confusing

00:23:38.740 --> 00:23:40.539
at first because i keep saying like what adam

00:23:40.539 --> 00:23:42.769
said like you know cigarettes are bad for you

00:23:42.769 --> 00:23:44.970
but like they're clearly smoking weed just the

00:23:44.970 --> 00:23:46.769
way they're behaving like you can tell they're

00:23:46.769 --> 00:23:48.849
smoking weed including from the trash from the

00:23:48.849 --> 00:23:50.730
trash it's so funny they like do bonkers and

00:23:50.730 --> 00:23:52.309
they're like cigarettes are bad for you yeah

00:23:52.309 --> 00:23:55.230
i think they don't have adversary messaging for

00:23:55.230 --> 00:23:58.190
it's only cigarettes and alcohol yeah that's

00:23:58.190 --> 00:24:00.490
what i said it's an endorsement of weed it's

00:24:00.490 --> 00:24:04.069
a pro endorsement of weed drugs in general what

00:24:04.069 --> 00:24:06.329
did they say they're in the the joint party remember

00:24:06.329 --> 00:24:08.329
that joke he was saying like you're in the bjp

00:24:08.329 --> 00:24:11.339
the something yeah yeah bharatiya joint party

00:24:11.339 --> 00:24:13.519
it's like bharatiya janta party is bjp who is

00:24:13.519 --> 00:24:15.799
in power right now and there's like you will

00:24:15.799 --> 00:24:18.799
open like bharatiya joint party yeah that was

00:24:18.799 --> 00:24:21.579
fun and also like even in the song like they

00:24:21.579 --> 00:24:25.220
were again and again saying that weed is better

00:24:25.220 --> 00:24:27.720
than alcohol in the lyrics of the like babaji

00:24:27.720 --> 00:24:30.640
ki booty song so i think they were kind of endorsing

00:24:30.640 --> 00:24:33.859
weed a lot in this film just quickly too is weed

00:24:33.859 --> 00:24:38.059
grown in goa i don't know because whenever i

00:24:38.059 --> 00:24:40.519
went to goa like i never found like good quality

00:24:40.519 --> 00:24:42.920
of weed there okay i assume there's a big drug

00:24:42.920 --> 00:24:44.779
scene in goa though because that's where there's

00:24:44.779 --> 00:24:47.599
a lot of raves and parties like psytrance a lot

00:24:47.599 --> 00:24:49.940
of psychedelics i assume so yeah as i was saying

00:24:49.940 --> 00:24:52.460
two friends they have another friend called bunny

00:24:52.460 --> 00:24:54.859
who's like the goody two shoes they all work

00:24:54.859 --> 00:24:57.420
in the same company which i'm assuming it's an

00:24:57.420 --> 00:25:01.450
it job And each character has their own little

00:25:01.450 --> 00:25:03.650
thing going on before the real events of the

00:25:03.650 --> 00:25:05.710
film. So I'm just going to do a quick rundown.

00:25:05.730 --> 00:25:09.930
For Love, he's in love with this girl that he's

00:25:09.930 --> 00:25:13.930
with, which his friends say is bad news. They've

00:25:13.930 --> 00:25:15.309
been together six months. They've been together

00:25:15.309 --> 00:25:19.609
six months. And he has plans to propose to her

00:25:19.609 --> 00:25:25.529
at this dinner date. And he notices that... There's

00:25:25.529 --> 00:25:28.410
a guy that's been watching them have dinner.

00:25:29.029 --> 00:25:33.029
And you can also tell that this woman that he's

00:25:33.029 --> 00:25:36.150
about to propose to, she's very disinterested.

00:25:36.450 --> 00:25:38.890
Doesn't want to talk to him. And you can put

00:25:38.890 --> 00:25:40.970
the two and two together, right? Just cheating

00:25:40.970 --> 00:25:43.029
on him. And they asked him, have you had sex

00:25:43.029 --> 00:25:45.029
yet? And they haven't. He's saving it for marriage.

00:25:45.769 --> 00:25:49.769
What a lovely guy. Very pure. But yeah, he finds

00:25:49.769 --> 00:25:52.009
out that the guy that's watching them is like

00:25:52.009 --> 00:25:55.670
her. you know her the side guy and then like

00:25:55.670 --> 00:25:58.690
she was planning to break up with him and so

00:25:58.690 --> 00:26:01.049
he's like heartbroken and then he overhears the

00:26:01.049 --> 00:26:02.910
two talking that they were planning to go to

00:26:02.910 --> 00:26:05.630
goa and that's where it sets the events in motion

00:26:05.630 --> 00:26:08.490
where he's like full of heartbreak and he wants

00:26:08.490 --> 00:26:10.309
to tell his friends that you know maybe we should

00:26:10.309 --> 00:26:12.609
go to goa all right that's that's for love's

00:26:12.609 --> 00:26:16.369
arc uh i had a friend that went on a date with

00:26:16.369 --> 00:26:19.009
a thai girl and they went to a restaurant and

00:26:19.009 --> 00:26:21.869
at the end of the dinner She pointed at the booth

00:26:21.869 --> 00:26:23.589
next to them and said, those are my parents.

00:26:23.869 --> 00:26:26.170
Oh, geez. He's like, what? And like, yeah, they

00:26:26.170 --> 00:26:28.089
just start waving at him and he waves back and

00:26:28.089 --> 00:26:30.109
the parents were just watching the date secretly

00:26:30.109 --> 00:26:33.529
the entire time. And then they drove away with

00:26:33.529 --> 00:26:36.150
her and he never spoke to her again. Yeah. Go

00:26:36.150 --> 00:26:37.849
on. I think that's how it goes for a lot of dates

00:26:37.849 --> 00:26:41.210
for her. I don't know. It was fucked up. So hard

00:26:41.210 --> 00:26:43.869
dick, as you can tell from his name, the way

00:26:43.869 --> 00:26:45.930
I pronounce it, hard dick. They even made a joke

00:26:45.930 --> 00:26:49.970
about it. Good Lord. He's, like, the playboy,

00:26:50.089 --> 00:26:54.349
right? He enjoys just, you know, fucking around,

00:26:54.529 --> 00:26:57.970
basically. So, like, during that night of the

00:26:57.970 --> 00:27:02.049
date where his friend was having, Hardik was,

00:27:02.150 --> 00:27:04.910
like, basically smoking weed in, like, a meeting

00:27:04.910 --> 00:27:08.289
room at their company with this secretary -type

00:27:08.289 --> 00:27:11.029
character. And, obviously, like, they're about

00:27:11.029 --> 00:27:12.750
to have sex and you had, like, this little...

00:27:12.750 --> 00:27:16.150
Well, no, because she doesn't... She actually

00:27:16.150 --> 00:27:18.390
doesn't want to have sex. yeah she was like just

00:27:18.390 --> 00:27:20.710
she was just okay to kiss i guess i don't know

00:27:20.710 --> 00:27:22.410
what she was winking about because they were

00:27:22.410 --> 00:27:24.970
making out yeah i think yeah they were she was

00:27:24.970 --> 00:27:26.730
okay with like making out but she didn't want

00:27:26.730 --> 00:27:28.609
to have sex in the meeting room that's why she's

00:27:28.609 --> 00:27:31.309
like no like he ran away and like bought the

00:27:31.309 --> 00:27:33.670
condom he ran to get condoms and then he comes

00:27:33.670 --> 00:27:37.430
back and she's like why like no sex like kind

00:27:37.430 --> 00:27:40.470
of messaging the whole the whole segment where

00:27:40.470 --> 00:27:43.569
he goes down To buy a condom and makes those

00:27:43.569 --> 00:27:46.029
remarks. Dude, that is like high school behavior,

00:27:46.369 --> 00:27:49.109
man. I've done that once. It reminds me of high

00:27:49.109 --> 00:27:51.809
school, but like these are grown -ass men. But

00:27:51.809 --> 00:27:54.009
I didn't know India carries such a large selection

00:27:54.009 --> 00:27:56.089
of condoms. You see the guy just go on different

00:27:56.089 --> 00:27:59.529
flavors, different textures. I think it's a good

00:27:59.529 --> 00:28:02.089
messaging for like using a condom as well. Like,

00:28:02.089 --> 00:28:03.789
you know, like it's, it's, it's because it's,

00:28:03.789 --> 00:28:05.809
it's putting it on main screen that like, you

00:28:05.809 --> 00:28:07.049
know, you're just making out and you're about

00:28:07.049 --> 00:28:10.250
to have sex, but like have safe sex. Like take

00:28:10.250 --> 00:28:12.769
so much time, like just instead of like having

00:28:12.769 --> 00:28:14.910
sex, just takes so much time to go to a shop

00:28:14.910 --> 00:28:17.430
and buy a condom. And he's such a gentleman about

00:28:17.430 --> 00:28:19.109
it though, because he calls and asks her like,

00:28:19.170 --> 00:28:20.730
what does she like, chocolate or strawberry?

00:28:21.000 --> 00:28:23.380
Jesus, no. I cringe at that. So you can get the

00:28:23.380 --> 00:28:26.019
correct flavor of condoms. Yeah. Do you guys

00:28:26.019 --> 00:28:30.660
get nervous buying condoms? I didn't. No. Not

00:28:30.660 --> 00:28:34.940
at all. Yeah, me neither. I had, like, bad condom

00:28:34.940 --> 00:28:36.880
experience as well. But, yeah, that's different.

00:28:36.880 --> 00:28:40.240
Wait, go on. Bad condom experience. Yeah, it's

00:28:40.240 --> 00:28:44.220
like buying, like, those extra last condom. Extra

00:28:44.220 --> 00:28:46.980
what? extra lasting like they last longer yeah

00:28:46.980 --> 00:28:49.680
they said extra large no no extra last and they

00:28:49.680 --> 00:28:53.240
were too small for me no and i think they have

00:28:53.240 --> 00:28:56.019
like kind of a numbing gel that you don't orgasm

00:28:56.019 --> 00:28:59.380
and then that was not very good oh wow you bought

00:28:59.380 --> 00:29:02.519
them in bulk or what no no no just one and it's

00:29:02.519 --> 00:29:05.410
but they work yeah i mean they're condoms but

00:29:05.410 --> 00:29:08.069
i mean as in you didn't feel anything and yeah

00:29:08.069 --> 00:29:10.549
i was like not feeling the anything so it's like

00:29:10.549 --> 00:29:12.490
numbing jail was like i was like what the fuck

00:29:12.490 --> 00:29:14.549
is this like i don't like it that's what extra

00:29:14.549 --> 00:29:16.809
lasting was gonna do man yeah but i was i had

00:29:16.809 --> 00:29:18.630
no idea like that was the first time and i was

00:29:18.630 --> 00:29:21.150
not very experienced in like what extra lasting

00:29:21.150 --> 00:29:23.390
i thought you meant it just like expires later

00:29:31.690 --> 00:29:33.789
I guess I'll lose my virginity in 20 years, but

00:29:33.789 --> 00:29:35.730
it's good to buy these now. It's a good investment.

00:29:36.009 --> 00:29:37.950
I didn't know these existed. I thought you have

00:29:37.950 --> 00:29:39.730
to take Viagra if you wanted to achieve that.

00:29:40.289 --> 00:29:42.630
That doesn't necessarily help you last longer.

00:29:42.809 --> 00:29:47.150
It just helps you get that up. Yeah. What? Viagra.

00:29:47.990 --> 00:29:52.950
Oh. But stays up, I guess, even after you. Yeah.

00:29:53.009 --> 00:29:58.890
Yeah. All right. What happens next? Yeah. Hardik

00:29:58.890 --> 00:30:00.650
thought he was about to have sex with his secretary.

00:30:01.500 --> 00:30:03.460
And then, you know, as soon as he there's like

00:30:03.460 --> 00:30:06.900
a little bit of like hold up with buying a condom.

00:30:07.059 --> 00:30:10.339
And so when he goes back to the office, she tells

00:30:10.339 --> 00:30:12.039
him, no, I don't want to have sex. And then but

00:30:12.039 --> 00:30:14.079
before anything else could happen, like their

00:30:14.079 --> 00:30:18.240
supervisor or boss walks in on them and Hardik

00:30:18.240 --> 00:30:21.619
tries to escape through the window. And I'm assuming

00:30:21.619 --> 00:30:24.140
that he does. I mean, he does escape, but I think

00:30:24.140 --> 00:30:26.720
he's out of a job. And so that, you know, he

00:30:26.720 --> 00:30:29.599
decides to go to Goa. with his friends just to

00:30:29.599 --> 00:30:32.180
party hard or whatever can we just talk about

00:30:32.180 --> 00:30:34.799
the fact that he decided to jump down the building

00:30:34.799 --> 00:30:37.640
and get caught by his boss this guy was like

00:30:37.640 --> 00:30:39.599
half naked on the ledge of a building and just

00:30:39.599 --> 00:30:43.539
jumps I have a question like how did the manager

00:30:43.539 --> 00:30:46.779
guy recognize him from a tattoo on his back yeah

00:30:46.779 --> 00:30:49.680
he had a back tattoo and recognized him from

00:30:49.680 --> 00:30:52.480
the back tattoo maybe like facebook post or something

00:30:52.480 --> 00:30:54.839
or like where else like a manager would see like

00:30:54.839 --> 00:30:56.619
or maybe office party or something like that

00:30:56.619 --> 00:30:58.960
yeah back to it right there was a they showed

00:30:58.960 --> 00:31:02.740
how he remembered is it and i don't remember

00:31:02.740 --> 00:31:05.819
is it also like a sexy scene in the office from

00:31:05.819 --> 00:31:12.960
behind i remember that back yeah but that was

00:31:12.960 --> 00:31:16.319
when you were gay that was weird right he does

00:31:16.319 --> 00:31:18.480
he did jump out the window and then the next

00:31:18.480 --> 00:31:21.180
shot we see him like in a cast but then they

00:31:21.180 --> 00:31:23.000
go to go and he's like i'm perfectly okay now

00:31:23.000 --> 00:31:25.380
his hand just healed overnight he said like my

00:31:25.380 --> 00:31:28.059
i've broken my hands yeah like when he entered

00:31:28.059 --> 00:31:29.980
the room yeah yeah that's it i think it's done

00:31:29.980 --> 00:31:32.220
for laughs like we don't have to like look really

00:31:32.220 --> 00:31:35.299
look into it it's also like dude if like you

00:31:35.299 --> 00:31:37.079
you're jumping out the window but just ask the

00:31:37.079 --> 00:31:40.940
girl who stayed behind who was that Just ask

00:31:40.940 --> 00:31:43.279
her. She's still in the office with the manager.

00:31:43.640 --> 00:31:46.019
I think it's his office as well, so he knows

00:31:46.019 --> 00:31:49.460
who is that. No reason to jump. You're fucked.

00:31:49.839 --> 00:31:51.700
I think this movie is also relying on the fact

00:31:51.700 --> 00:31:53.839
that the audience is kind of high to just let

00:31:53.839 --> 00:31:57.779
certain plot points go. And he's also high. Yeah,

00:31:57.799 --> 00:32:00.039
and the whole character is high. Jump out the

00:32:00.039 --> 00:32:03.460
window. Very radical sense in his head. I'll

00:32:03.460 --> 00:32:05.200
just never go back to work, and I'll never get

00:32:05.200 --> 00:32:09.670
fired. Yeah. How do they get to Goa? Well, that

00:32:09.670 --> 00:32:11.970
goes to the third character, right? Bunny. The

00:32:11.970 --> 00:32:14.289
car. Oh, yeah, Bunny. Yeah, Bunny has like a

00:32:14.289 --> 00:32:16.710
big presentation. So you can tell that Bunny

00:32:16.710 --> 00:32:19.369
is in a higher job position than the other two.

00:32:19.690 --> 00:32:22.569
And apparently like he gets accepted for some

00:32:22.569 --> 00:32:25.170
presentation and he needs to go to Goa. So then

00:32:25.170 --> 00:32:27.630
like the group decides that, hey, let's use your

00:32:27.630 --> 00:32:31.529
car and party our asses off. And that's how.

00:32:31.849 --> 00:32:34.250
Yeah, they go to Goa to forget the troubles.

00:32:34.289 --> 00:32:38.349
And I guess somewhere along the way, Love. In

00:32:38.349 --> 00:32:42.470
Goa, meets this girl named Luna. Who, by the

00:32:42.470 --> 00:32:45.089
way, she says she recognizes him because Love

00:32:45.089 --> 00:32:48.710
is such a popular Facebook user. That was weird,

00:32:48.769 --> 00:32:51.839
right? no that was like a thousand friends it

00:32:51.839 --> 00:32:53.859
seems like a culture thing right yeah that was

00:32:53.859 --> 00:32:56.200
very common in india like having like friends

00:32:56.200 --> 00:32:59.380
in friend list like whom you have never met but

00:32:59.380 --> 00:33:01.480
like it was like maybe common friend or something

00:33:01.480 --> 00:33:04.599
facebook suggested you and then like you become

00:33:04.599 --> 00:33:06.299
their friends on facebook so that's why like

00:33:06.299 --> 00:33:07.859
people used to have like so many people they

00:33:07.859 --> 00:33:10.180
never met yeah but on facebook so there was like

00:33:10.180 --> 00:33:13.579
a term called facebook friend a lot in india

00:33:13.579 --> 00:33:15.960
it was like that for me as well in my school

00:33:15.960 --> 00:33:18.440
we had a lot of facebook this is 2013 so it's

00:33:18.440 --> 00:33:21.619
like the peak of facebook yeah And he updates

00:33:21.619 --> 00:33:23.900
everything that happens to his life on Facebook.

00:33:23.900 --> 00:33:26.579
Yeah, like, oh, I just got broken up with. That's

00:33:26.579 --> 00:33:28.759
also very realistic, actually. Like, the people

00:33:28.759 --> 00:33:30.880
used to post those kind of things, like, you

00:33:30.880 --> 00:33:33.420
know, like, motivational and, like, sad and,

00:33:33.460 --> 00:33:35.359
like, you know, just plays, like, what music

00:33:35.359 --> 00:33:37.440
they're playing and, like, put the link or something

00:33:37.440 --> 00:33:39.099
like that. So that was a very common thing to

00:33:39.099 --> 00:33:41.980
do on Facebook. And so, yeah, that felt, like,

00:33:42.019 --> 00:33:44.119
very realistic that she knows what he's going

00:33:44.119 --> 00:33:46.559
through even without meeting him and then suddenly

00:33:46.559 --> 00:33:50.720
meet in Goa. And obviously love being the hopeless

00:33:50.720 --> 00:33:53.559
romantic. He falls for Luna. Tries to really

00:33:53.559 --> 00:33:56.019
get with her. Tries to say, hey, I'm over my

00:33:56.019 --> 00:33:58.779
girlfriend now. After one day. After one day.

00:33:58.880 --> 00:34:01.960
And then Luna, you know, she's not interested.

00:34:02.140 --> 00:34:05.680
But she did mention that there's this cool underground

00:34:05.680 --> 00:34:09.059
rave party happening in Goa. And then, you know,

00:34:09.099 --> 00:34:11.539
that everyone should get in on it. And then.

00:34:11.719 --> 00:34:13.820
And it's run by the Russian mafia. It's run by

00:34:13.820 --> 00:34:15.159
the Russian. That's really important. It's run

00:34:15.159 --> 00:34:19.409
by the Russian mafia. And so Love's like, yo,

00:34:19.570 --> 00:34:23.409
Hardik and Bunny, let's go to this party and

00:34:23.409 --> 00:34:29.989
get wasted. Yeah, because also Hardik is convinced

00:34:29.989 --> 00:34:33.570
Love to get over his ex by fucking a random woman

00:34:33.570 --> 00:34:35.789
or something. Like he's like, you got to go out

00:34:35.789 --> 00:34:37.070
and party. That's kind of why they're going to

00:34:37.070 --> 00:34:38.889
go. You need to get over this. I need to hide

00:34:38.889 --> 00:34:40.809
from my job. Bunny needs to give his presentation.

00:34:41.110 --> 00:34:42.949
So this is like all their reason for going. And

00:34:42.949 --> 00:34:45.510
so Love is trying to do that. He's like, I want

00:34:45.510 --> 00:34:47.250
to get with Luna. So I'm going to go to the party.

00:34:47.349 --> 00:34:49.469
Yeah. What they didn't anticipate is that the

00:34:49.469 --> 00:34:53.110
secret rave party that they're going to is actually

00:34:53.110 --> 00:34:58.429
not in Goa, but like on a secluded island away

00:34:58.429 --> 00:35:01.070
from Goa. Yeah. Right. So they have to travel

00:35:01.070 --> 00:35:03.449
by boat. And, you know, Bunny didn't want to

00:35:03.449 --> 00:35:06.289
go. Because he has a presentation like, oh, Bunny,

00:35:06.369 --> 00:35:08.969
don't be a pussy. As many dude bros tend to say

00:35:08.969 --> 00:35:11.710
and stuff like that. And yeah, they end up at

00:35:11.710 --> 00:35:14.389
the party and we get this like. Sorry. Importantly,

00:35:14.409 --> 00:35:16.590
they have to charter their own boat. Oh, yeah.

00:35:16.650 --> 00:35:19.150
Yeah, that's true. No, no one will take them

00:35:19.150 --> 00:35:21.909
there. So they rent their own boat and they give

00:35:21.909 --> 00:35:24.909
Bunny's cars collateral. Yeah. And so they take

00:35:24.909 --> 00:35:27.480
the one boat themselves to that island. yeah

00:35:27.480 --> 00:35:29.199
and that's the last we see of the Volkswagen

00:35:29.199 --> 00:35:33.699
car Volkswagen like pissed their money away on

00:35:33.699 --> 00:35:38.159
that so yeah they end up on the island and you

00:35:38.159 --> 00:35:40.679
get like this montage of like oh typical rave

00:35:40.679 --> 00:35:44.500
party scene like you know very unrealistic what

00:35:44.500 --> 00:35:49.139
would make it more realistic I don't know this

00:35:49.139 --> 00:35:51.539
is maybe like things that goes on people's head

00:35:51.539 --> 00:35:53.800
when they're high as fuck and they're thinking

00:35:53.800 --> 00:35:56.559
like that but like if you're sober if you're

00:35:56.650 --> 00:35:59.030
look at a rave like no i've never seen a rave

00:35:59.030 --> 00:36:02.329
that looks like that kind of i don't know i kind

00:36:02.329 --> 00:36:06.469
of did see it maybe in a way i don't know they

00:36:06.469 --> 00:36:08.769
were dancing a lot they were getting high they

00:36:08.769 --> 00:36:10.889
were like it's like girls making out like some

00:36:10.889 --> 00:36:13.590
guy's fantasy of a rave yeah yeah maybe it's

00:36:13.590 --> 00:36:16.409
like maybe in hedonist island or something but

00:36:16.409 --> 00:36:18.789
yeah anyway they they're like getting all high

00:36:18.789 --> 00:36:22.150
uh hardik is looking up with some i think it's

00:36:22.150 --> 00:36:25.030
like a white girl or something love is trying

00:36:25.030 --> 00:36:27.130
to get with luna and then in the midst of all

00:36:27.130 --> 00:36:29.789
this party there's like this new drug that's

00:36:29.789 --> 00:36:33.269
going around it's shaped like a red pill i thought

00:36:33.269 --> 00:36:36.530
it was funny it's like red pillars and yeah that's

00:36:36.530 --> 00:36:39.230
like you know it's it was pretty funny but like

00:36:39.230 --> 00:36:43.940
the matrix it makes sense Yeah, everyone is like,

00:36:43.960 --> 00:36:45.880
they're just serving it on a platter and everyone

00:36:45.880 --> 00:36:47.940
is just hating this red pill. But it costs 5

00:36:47.940 --> 00:36:51.800
,000 rupees. It's very expensive. Yeah. For 2013,

00:36:52.039 --> 00:36:54.820
5 ,000, it's not everyone can afford it easily.

00:36:54.820 --> 00:36:56.679
And that's the only reason, I think Hardik was

00:36:56.679 --> 00:36:58.500
offered it and that's the only reason he turned

00:36:58.500 --> 00:37:01.980
it down when he realized it cost 5 ,000. i think

00:37:01.980 --> 00:37:04.500
like even if the drug was like thousand rupee

00:37:04.500 --> 00:37:06.400
he couldn't have afforded it like he had like

00:37:06.400 --> 00:37:09.239
few coins in his pocket i mean that made me laugh

00:37:09.239 --> 00:37:11.840
that was pretty funny yeah uh yeah so they couldn't

00:37:11.840 --> 00:37:15.360
afford it so they're like off that red pill so

00:37:15.360 --> 00:37:17.820
what we start to notice we as the audience we

00:37:17.820 --> 00:37:20.019
we get to see like the effects that this drug

00:37:20.019 --> 00:37:22.900
is having everyone is just slowly like you can

00:37:22.900 --> 00:37:24.480
tell like they're like getting high it's almost

00:37:24.480 --> 00:37:27.000
like fentanyl type of high where they're just

00:37:27.000 --> 00:37:30.340
standing there like all like awkward and like

00:37:30.889 --> 00:37:34.690
shit -faced out of their heads and you know that

00:37:34.690 --> 00:37:37.989
happened overnight they came our characters come

00:37:37.989 --> 00:37:41.869
to and then they realize that oh to put it simply

00:37:41.869 --> 00:37:44.010
like all the all the people who took that drug

00:37:44.010 --> 00:37:48.170
they're now zombies yeah what's interesting is

00:37:48.170 --> 00:37:50.690
they they say they keep calling them evil deads

00:37:51.070 --> 00:37:53.510
Evil deads. Yeah. Which is very interesting because

00:37:53.510 --> 00:37:56.269
like this movie is taking place in a world with

00:37:56.269 --> 00:37:59.230
movies and zombie movies. I think from their

00:37:59.230 --> 00:38:01.869
conversation, the point was that Indian people,

00:38:01.969 --> 00:38:04.909
like most of them, apart from Hardik, didn't

00:38:04.909 --> 00:38:07.929
see any zombie films. So they're not. So it's

00:38:07.929 --> 00:38:10.949
like zombies being imported to India. Like zombies.

00:38:11.090 --> 00:38:14.659
This film is importing zombie to India. they're

00:38:14.659 --> 00:38:16.380
all talking about like is it vampire because

00:38:16.380 --> 00:38:19.119
vampire is a big export okay i mean indians knows

00:38:19.119 --> 00:38:21.900
about vampire and then like okay evil dead because

00:38:21.900 --> 00:38:24.059
evil dead was one of the horror film that was

00:38:24.059 --> 00:38:26.980
very popular in india and then like they're like

00:38:26.980 --> 00:38:29.019
what is this because and then hardy is like i

00:38:29.019 --> 00:38:31.880
think it's zombie because like other two of them

00:38:31.880 --> 00:38:34.500
like they don't know what zombie is so that's

00:38:34.500 --> 00:38:36.679
why they were like going one after another like

00:38:36.679 --> 00:38:39.139
what it should could be like because zombie doesn't

00:38:39.139 --> 00:38:41.119
come to their mind and it's interesting i mean

00:38:41.119 --> 00:38:43.320
because a lot of zombie movies are always like

00:38:43.769 --> 00:38:46.309
what are these things and we have to like go

00:38:46.309 --> 00:38:48.750
you know through the beginning every single time

00:38:48.750 --> 00:38:50.809
like they never know her what a zombie is right

00:38:50.809 --> 00:38:52.250
and they're like how are these people you know

00:38:52.250 --> 00:38:53.949
coming back from the dead and this is like boom

00:38:53.949 --> 00:38:55.670
they're zombies we know what to do and i like

00:38:55.670 --> 00:38:57.570
that and it's like we all know what zombies are

00:38:57.570 --> 00:38:59.469
let's just skip to this but they blame foreigners

00:38:59.469 --> 00:39:01.730
for bringing zombies in right yeah like kelly

00:39:01.730 --> 00:39:04.010
was saying importing they call it globalization

00:39:04.010 --> 00:39:08.880
globalization exactly yeah i think like the movie

00:39:08.880 --> 00:39:11.780
was very self -aware yeah it's uh commentary

00:39:11.780 --> 00:39:14.320
on things and like no we know that we are doing

00:39:14.320 --> 00:39:16.079
this kind of way i'm gonna get into this one

00:39:16.079 --> 00:39:19.039
scene that really like summarizes an aspect of

00:39:19.039 --> 00:39:21.579
the movie in my opinion right it's like they

00:39:21.579 --> 00:39:23.300
they couldn't figure out what's wrong with everyone

00:39:23.300 --> 00:39:25.400
on the island at first right and then they meet

00:39:25.400 --> 00:39:28.860
like this knife wielding russian dude and he

00:39:28.860 --> 00:39:32.019
was just like speaking in russian when they could

00:39:32.019 --> 00:39:33.960
have easily like You know, he could have explained

00:39:33.960 --> 00:39:36.039
it in English or something. And there's no subtitles.

00:39:36.340 --> 00:39:38.320
There's no subtitles. But I thought they asked

00:39:38.320 --> 00:39:41.079
for it. Like, where is the subtitles? Yeah, they

00:39:41.079 --> 00:39:43.099
even said, where are the subtitles? It was so

00:39:43.099 --> 00:39:45.920
funny. But, like, he was trying to explain it

00:39:45.920 --> 00:39:48.679
through, like, showing them, right? And, like,

00:39:48.739 --> 00:39:51.059
I shit you not, I remember this scene. It's,

00:39:51.079 --> 00:39:53.500
like, the guy literally is, like, having his

00:39:53.500 --> 00:39:56.340
back turned. And then... All of a sudden, there's

00:39:56.340 --> 00:39:59.340
like a zombie right behind him. And I shit you

00:39:59.340 --> 00:40:01.820
not, I feel like everyone's situational awareness

00:40:01.820 --> 00:40:04.679
is just not there. It's literally right there,

00:40:04.780 --> 00:40:06.679
right behind. Like, the characters didn't even

00:40:06.679 --> 00:40:09.159
tell the Russian to turn around or stop. It's

00:40:09.159 --> 00:40:11.539
like the zombie just spawned right near him.

00:40:11.719 --> 00:40:14.579
It's very video game influenced. No, but throughout

00:40:14.579 --> 00:40:17.880
the movie, these characters are so dumb. So many

00:40:17.880 --> 00:40:19.679
scenes I was watching, I was getting so frustrated.

00:40:19.780 --> 00:40:21.500
Like, their intelligence extended to the fact

00:40:21.500 --> 00:40:23.300
that they figured out it was zombies. Beyond

00:40:23.300 --> 00:40:25.949
that, how they interacted. the zombies was so

00:40:25.949 --> 00:40:28.510
stupid even when they tried to go and talk to

00:40:28.510 --> 00:40:30.530
them like oh yeah she was my love last night

00:40:30.530 --> 00:40:33.110
let me try to talk to her oh yeah that was so

00:40:33.110 --> 00:40:37.010
dumb i think the film draws a lot of comedy elements

00:40:37.010 --> 00:40:40.150
of just to these main two characters being dumb

00:40:40.150 --> 00:40:43.190
like i like the fact like where where the these

00:40:43.190 --> 00:40:45.110
two main characters whoever they are mocking

00:40:45.110 --> 00:40:47.929
in some point of the in the film actually comes

00:40:47.929 --> 00:40:50.929
up with actual solutions and like actual like

00:40:50.929 --> 00:40:53.530
results with actions like the girl kills the

00:40:54.110 --> 00:40:57.650
the first zombie uh like bunny finds out like

00:40:57.650 --> 00:41:01.610
how to kill the zombie like de -arm the zombies

00:41:01.610 --> 00:41:03.889
so it's like and these two people being hero

00:41:03.889 --> 00:41:05.590
and then there is also this self -aware joke

00:41:05.590 --> 00:41:08.090
like bunny makes like you guys are like hero

00:41:08.090 --> 00:41:10.230
and then you will be live but i am like this

00:41:10.230 --> 00:41:12.349
sidekick character of a friend like i'm gonna

00:41:12.349 --> 00:41:15.670
die and like you all think he dies at one moment

00:41:15.670 --> 00:41:18.699
it's dumb and dumber yeah there's that steve

00:41:18.699 --> 00:41:21.139
jobs quote on the wall in their office where

00:41:21.139 --> 00:41:25.199
he says what have we what he says what do we

00:41:25.199 --> 00:41:27.940
know and what have we learned and they keep like

00:41:27.940 --> 00:41:30.199
using that in the movie and the very first time

00:41:30.199 --> 00:41:31.480
they're like what do we know and what have we

00:41:31.480 --> 00:41:32.980
learned like well we know nothing where we learned

00:41:32.980 --> 00:41:35.400
shit and that kind of sums up their whole journey

00:41:35.400 --> 00:41:38.880
in the movie it is a stoner comedy linkedin post

00:41:38.880 --> 00:41:43.800
yeah they use a linkedin quote to like guide

00:41:43.800 --> 00:41:45.559
their experience because they just know nothing

00:41:46.360 --> 00:41:48.579
So instead of, like, escaping the island, Love,

00:41:48.639 --> 00:41:51.900
being the hero that he is, sees, like, this flare

00:41:51.900 --> 00:41:56.139
in a secluded house up on the hill, and he believes

00:41:56.139 --> 00:41:58.559
it's Luna, so then they decide to rescue her,

00:41:58.639 --> 00:42:01.500
of course. And that's when Luna joins, right?

00:42:01.619 --> 00:42:05.500
And not just that, they meet, you know, the shining

00:42:05.500 --> 00:42:10.119
star, right? They meet Boris and Nikolai, two

00:42:10.119 --> 00:42:12.940
Russian mobsters that are, like, trying to, like...

00:42:13.820 --> 00:42:15.940
exterminate everyone in their path trying to

00:42:15.940 --> 00:42:18.340
get out of the island alive and let's just talk

00:42:18.340 --> 00:42:21.820
about boris the character uh you know he's like

00:42:21.820 --> 00:42:25.500
he says a lot of one -liners there's like some

00:42:25.500 --> 00:42:27.760
dumb one -liners yeah there's this one that i

00:42:27.760 --> 00:42:30.820
can remember right away it's so like it made

00:42:30.820 --> 00:42:33.320
me cringe and laugh at the same time it's like

00:42:33.320 --> 00:42:37.199
they he sneaks up on a car and the fucking zombie

00:42:37.199 --> 00:42:40.719
is like tied to the seat belt and so the the

00:42:40.719 --> 00:42:44.139
zombie cannot get him and he says Seatbelts do

00:42:44.139 --> 00:42:47.480
save lives. Our lives. And I'm like, oh, my God.

00:42:48.480 --> 00:42:50.760
He even does, like, groaner Russian jokes and

00:42:50.760 --> 00:42:53.440
stuff. He also said, like, I'll be back. Like,

00:42:53.539 --> 00:42:56.219
Arnold style, I'll be back. This guy's having

00:42:56.219 --> 00:42:58.420
a blast. I mean, this guy's super fun. I would

00:42:58.420 --> 00:43:00.460
watch, like, The Boris Adventures if I could.

00:43:01.599 --> 00:43:04.699
Yeah, again, like, a PSA in the film. So many

00:43:04.699 --> 00:43:08.000
PSAs in the film. Like, use seatbelts, use condoms,

00:43:08.000 --> 00:43:10.960
like, don't do drugs. Oh, nice. I love this.

00:43:11.019 --> 00:43:14.130
So, yeah, Boris is, like, not. russian as we

00:43:14.130 --> 00:43:16.610
we are led to believe he's actually you know

00:43:16.610 --> 00:43:19.190
indian and he did explain like he said yeah he's

00:43:19.190 --> 00:43:22.750
from delhi yeah and stuff and at first we thought

00:43:22.750 --> 00:43:24.949
he was gonna be like this asshole is gonna fuck

00:43:24.949 --> 00:43:27.849
them over but no he's kind of like uh he's like

00:43:27.849 --> 00:43:30.429
the badass of the group and they keep letting

00:43:30.429 --> 00:43:33.289
him down yeah like he has good ideas and they

00:43:33.760 --> 00:43:36.559
should go like help him and like he goes to secure

00:43:36.559 --> 00:43:38.400
a car and they can't even like get the boat like

00:43:38.400 --> 00:43:40.380
we said because arctic like wants to go talk

00:43:40.380 --> 00:43:41.960
to this girl he tried to fuck the night before

00:43:41.960 --> 00:43:44.460
or my favorite is when he gives them guns and

00:43:44.460 --> 00:43:47.039
he's like be careful like one bullet one zombie

00:43:47.039 --> 00:43:49.019
we have to be like economical about this and

00:43:49.019 --> 00:43:51.980
they just like see one zombie and spew all the

00:43:51.980 --> 00:43:54.460
bullets and do not even kill the zombie that

00:43:54.460 --> 00:43:56.800
that scene was very representative of how dumb

00:43:56.800 --> 00:43:59.780
this duo is and very 2013 they're like no we

00:43:59.780 --> 00:44:02.059
know how to use guns we play call of duty oh

00:44:02.059 --> 00:44:04.579
my god they made a call to reference oh my god

00:44:04.579 --> 00:44:06.880
that's so gamer right there it's such a gamer

00:44:06.880 --> 00:44:09.889
thing to say and it's like Yeah, like what Winnie

00:44:09.889 --> 00:44:11.989
said, like he actually tries to teach them to

00:44:11.989 --> 00:44:14.989
shoot. And the scene where he like yells at them

00:44:14.989 --> 00:44:18.150
in Russian for wasting so much ammo. I feel a

00:44:18.150 --> 00:44:21.349
little sense of satisfaction, like fucking fuckers,

00:44:21.369 --> 00:44:23.769
you deserve that. He was basically like, I would

00:44:23.769 --> 00:44:26.309
kill you both, but I don't want to waste my bullets

00:44:26.309 --> 00:44:29.250
on you. He doesn't refill their bullets for like

00:44:29.250 --> 00:44:31.210
the whole night. That's why they don't have any

00:44:31.210 --> 00:44:34.590
guns against the zombies. Winnie did point out

00:44:34.590 --> 00:44:36.909
he looks like a customized Tekken character.

00:44:38.409 --> 00:44:40.309
I think he looks like the male version of Nina

00:44:40.309 --> 00:44:42.190
because he's always carrying a gun. He's this

00:44:42.190 --> 00:44:45.570
blonde guy. And he's, yeah, he just reminded

00:44:45.570 --> 00:44:48.170
me of male Nina. But Nina is actually Kili's

00:44:48.170 --> 00:44:50.769
love and character. So, I don't know. Do you

00:44:50.769 --> 00:44:53.230
think that's, like, accurate? Yeah, I didn't

00:44:53.230 --> 00:44:55.510
see Nina in him, though. But, yeah, I can understand.

00:44:56.289 --> 00:44:59.429
So, you know, they meet Boris, right? And Boris

00:44:59.429 --> 00:45:02.469
does explain what the drug is. The drug is supposed

00:45:02.469 --> 00:45:06.369
to be, like, basically the party they're going

00:45:06.369 --> 00:45:08.630
to is supposed to be a testing. testing ground

00:45:08.630 --> 00:45:11.750
to try out this drug. What's the name of the

00:45:11.750 --> 00:45:16.250
drug? It's called D2RF. D2RF, like down to...

00:45:16.250 --> 00:45:21.550
Down to rave. Down to rave and fuck. It was red

00:45:21.550 --> 00:45:25.150
pill, but I think on the montage when people

00:45:25.150 --> 00:45:27.869
were taking, I thought... I saw people like splitting

00:45:27.869 --> 00:45:30.170
the pill and taking the drug from inside and

00:45:30.170 --> 00:45:31.849
it was like a white powder. Were they like snorting

00:45:31.849 --> 00:45:34.050
the powder inside the drug? Or like putting in

00:45:34.050 --> 00:45:35.690
some drink. I don't remember exactly what scene

00:45:35.690 --> 00:45:37.789
this was, but like I remember seeing that like

00:45:37.789 --> 00:45:40.389
they opened the capsule and then it was like.

00:45:41.019 --> 00:45:43.219
Some white kind of whitish powder in it. Wouldn't

00:45:43.219 --> 00:45:45.400
it be funny if the drug sucked, and all these

00:45:45.400 --> 00:45:46.599
people paid a lot of money, and they're just,

00:45:46.619 --> 00:45:48.940
like, puking, and, like, everyone's, like, sides

00:45:48.940 --> 00:45:51.119
are hurting. It's just, like, everyone wakes

00:45:51.119 --> 00:45:52.480
up in the morning, and there's just, like, blood

00:45:52.480 --> 00:45:54.199
and vomit everywhere instead. I mean, isn't that

00:45:54.199 --> 00:45:56.659
exactly what happened? Well, yeah, it's just

00:45:56.659 --> 00:45:58.719
not. With a bad drug? It doesn't feel good is

00:45:58.719 --> 00:46:01.519
my point. Well, so he explains that this drug

00:46:01.519 --> 00:46:04.739
is supposed to give users the ultimate high.

00:46:05.099 --> 00:46:09.880
It's a better high than MDMA, than cocaine. ecstasy

00:46:09.880 --> 00:46:12.400
everything you name it supposed to give the ultimate

00:46:12.400 --> 00:46:16.059
high but upon finding out that people take it

00:46:16.059 --> 00:46:18.480
you know when people take it it's they cannot

00:46:18.480 --> 00:46:22.079
handle the high so then it blows their brains

00:46:22.079 --> 00:46:25.059
up and turns them into mush turns them into zombies

00:46:25.059 --> 00:46:29.239
and they figure he figured out that they're not

00:46:29.239 --> 00:46:32.920
eating people it's that flesh gives them the

00:46:32.920 --> 00:46:37.309
high flesh is their Is there drug? Whoa. I'm

00:46:37.309 --> 00:46:41.409
like, okay. Blood. Blood is their life force.

00:46:41.570 --> 00:46:44.750
Yeah. So that's when you know that it's too good

00:46:44.750 --> 00:46:46.289
to be true. When they try to tell you it's better

00:46:46.289 --> 00:46:49.769
than coke, MDMA, ecstasy, don't fall for that.

00:46:49.969 --> 00:46:52.389
This movie is very anti -designer drug. Yeah.

00:46:52.489 --> 00:46:54.750
They just want your meat and potatoes, mom and

00:46:54.750 --> 00:46:56.929
pop drugs. Stick to those. Stick to the stuff

00:46:56.929 --> 00:46:59.369
from the earth. Well, back in 2013, I think designer

00:46:59.369 --> 00:47:01.630
drugs were not nearly as big as they are today.

00:47:02.190 --> 00:47:05.070
Yet. The movie is quite ahead of its time. Yeah,

00:47:05.070 --> 00:47:08.150
yeah. A lot of people would say that. A lot of

00:47:08.150 --> 00:47:09.710
people are saying that. More and more people

00:47:09.710 --> 00:47:11.190
are saying that. It predicts about Red Pill.

00:47:11.670 --> 00:47:13.789
I don't think it did because The Matrix literally

00:47:13.789 --> 00:47:16.349
did that in 1999. No, but that was like a totally

00:47:16.349 --> 00:47:19.510
good way. Like Red Pill makes you aware of things

00:47:19.510 --> 00:47:20.949
and they're like... That's what the Red Pill,

00:47:20.989 --> 00:47:24.030
that's what the MRA people think they're doing.

00:47:24.130 --> 00:47:26.929
Yeah, but from an outsider's perspective, Red

00:47:26.929 --> 00:47:31.139
Pill makes you a zombie. When we talk about in

00:47:31.139 --> 00:47:33.280
pop culture, Red Pill references, Red Pill makes

00:47:33.280 --> 00:47:36.840
you kind of a brain dead. So this is what happens

00:47:36.840 --> 00:47:40.300
in the film. Red Pills kind of make them kind

00:47:40.300 --> 00:47:43.719
of brain dead. Movie's ahead of its time. Movie's

00:47:43.719 --> 00:47:47.440
super ahead of its time. Pre -Fentanyl. I feel

00:47:47.440 --> 00:47:49.159
like that is something you say when you're really

00:47:49.159 --> 00:47:53.480
stoned. What if it's an allegory for Red Pills?

00:47:54.320 --> 00:47:56.400
I told Winnie, there's that movie. What's that

00:47:56.400 --> 00:47:59.309
movie with Bradley Cooper? With the drugs. Oh,

00:47:59.329 --> 00:48:02.449
Limitless. Limitless. It's a really stupid movie,

00:48:02.550 --> 00:48:05.909
though, because. I like that movie. It's stupid

00:48:05.909 --> 00:48:09.030
because he gets the pills and then the plot of

00:48:09.030 --> 00:48:10.889
the movie is he runs out and then quickly has

00:48:10.889 --> 00:48:13.010
to try to find out where to get the new pills

00:48:13.010 --> 00:48:16.090
from. Right. But like, literally, if you take

00:48:16.090 --> 00:48:19.090
a pill and it makes you smarter, the first thing

00:48:19.090 --> 00:48:20.230
you're going to do is like, where do I get more?

00:48:20.750 --> 00:48:22.969
yeah right like if you're a crack addict like

00:48:22.969 --> 00:48:24.869
literally your first thought is how do i get

00:48:24.869 --> 00:48:27.369
more this will run out and he's somehow like

00:48:27.369 --> 00:48:29.590
incredibly smart and doesn't understand like

00:48:29.590 --> 00:48:32.909
finite amount of capsules will mean he can't

00:48:32.909 --> 00:48:34.769
take anymore and it's a surprise to him fuck

00:48:34.769 --> 00:48:37.659
that doesn't make any sense You can't be smart

00:48:37.659 --> 00:48:39.440
if you don't understand that like one day you'll

00:48:39.440 --> 00:48:42.320
have zero of these and you are surprised. Yeah.

00:48:42.400 --> 00:48:44.559
And that's why the zombies in this movie. Anyways,

00:48:44.579 --> 00:48:49.659
go on. Sorry. So where were we? Luna is basically

00:48:49.659 --> 00:48:52.320
like, you know, taking a rest and love wants

00:48:52.320 --> 00:48:55.579
to check up on her. Oh, gosh. And then it's like

00:48:55.579 --> 00:48:58.440
the most cringiest scene ever because he's like.

00:48:59.440 --> 00:49:01.960
He's like thinking that there's a moment. This

00:49:01.960 --> 00:49:04.420
is the third time now. Yeah. There's been two

00:49:04.420 --> 00:49:06.320
other moments he's whiffed on where like he's

00:49:06.320 --> 00:49:09.659
gone for a move and she's like, no, that's not

00:49:09.659 --> 00:49:11.800
it. And so there's been two times where he screwed

00:49:11.800 --> 00:49:13.739
this up. And also what's funny is because in

00:49:13.739 --> 00:49:16.219
that moment, he came to apologize about the other

00:49:16.219 --> 00:49:18.659
two moments when he tried to make a move. And

00:49:18.659 --> 00:49:21.050
at the end, she's like, OK, he's like. Trying

00:49:21.050 --> 00:49:22.590
to, like, wait. He's like, well, is this not

00:49:22.590 --> 00:49:24.829
a moment? So, of course, he did not mean his

00:49:24.829 --> 00:49:26.130
apology at all. He keeps trying to fuck her.

00:49:26.150 --> 00:49:28.150
She keeps completely calling him out for it.

00:49:28.309 --> 00:49:30.269
I think that's really funny, though. It's, like,

00:49:30.369 --> 00:49:32.590
kind of clever. Like, I feel like it parallels

00:49:32.590 --> 00:49:36.110
some guys who don't get the hint. Like, men and

00:49:36.110 --> 00:49:39.769
women can't be friends kind of mentality. And

00:49:39.769 --> 00:49:43.409
also, just, you know, know your... You can ask.

00:49:43.730 --> 00:49:47.219
She'll tell you. You know, like I do like the

00:49:47.219 --> 00:49:50.000
communication she has. You know, she puts up

00:49:50.000 --> 00:49:51.739
with this a lot because she's hot. And so all

00:49:51.739 --> 00:49:53.619
these guys are just constantly hitting on her.

00:49:53.659 --> 00:49:55.780
And Hardik is, by the way, hitting on her this

00:49:55.780 --> 00:49:58.800
entire time as well. So like when he was done.

00:49:58.900 --> 00:50:01.179
OK, so it's not the moment. So he leaves her

00:50:01.179 --> 00:50:03.880
alone. And then Hardik comes in and he was like

00:50:03.880 --> 00:50:07.300
trying to get his way with her by saying like

00:50:07.300 --> 00:50:11.300
bragging about how many the body count. Two to

00:50:11.300 --> 00:50:13.679
three hundred. Two to three hundred. What a loser.

00:50:13.960 --> 00:50:18.519
What a loser. And then we get this quick scene

00:50:18.519 --> 00:50:22.159
where he just bursts down into tears. And he

00:50:22.159 --> 00:50:25.699
explains that the excuse was that he can't get

00:50:25.699 --> 00:50:27.820
over this love of his life. Who, by the way,

00:50:27.840 --> 00:50:30.019
I looked up the woman that appears in the flashback.

00:50:30.039 --> 00:50:34.699
It's actually his wife in real life. She was

00:50:34.699 --> 00:50:40.500
in Rang the Basanti. The dead pilot's wife. That

00:50:40.500 --> 00:50:47.079
is her. It's all connected. She ditched him and

00:50:47.079 --> 00:50:52.079
then went with the pilot. He's trying to explain

00:50:52.079 --> 00:50:54.599
that. Did you feel like that was a lie? Do you

00:50:54.599 --> 00:50:57.179
feel like he was making up a story for her and

00:50:57.179 --> 00:50:58.880
he used that excuse with a bunch of other women?

00:50:59.039 --> 00:51:02.809
We don't know actually. He tried to get with

00:51:02.809 --> 00:51:04.909
her using like the sympathy card he tried to

00:51:04.909 --> 00:51:06.489
immediately get with her after that story so

00:51:06.489 --> 00:51:09.769
i do feel like he's just rehearsed this maybe

00:51:09.769 --> 00:51:12.269
yeah but yeah like he's trying to do sympathy

00:51:12.269 --> 00:51:14.710
cards she rebuffs him and i think i like the

00:51:14.710 --> 00:51:17.909
whole scene is because like i was actually thinking

00:51:17.909 --> 00:51:21.070
that oh maybe she'll like fall for one of them

00:51:21.070 --> 00:51:23.329
for rescuing her but no none of that actually

00:51:23.329 --> 00:51:25.409
happens she just rebuffs them and they're like

00:51:25.739 --> 00:51:27.820
just friends but what i find really confusing

00:51:27.820 --> 00:51:30.039
about this whole thing is usually you see this

00:51:30.039 --> 00:51:32.340
bro code being quite strong between two friends

00:51:32.340 --> 00:51:34.119
especially when they're as close as hardik and

00:51:34.119 --> 00:51:36.440
love are you know there's kind of like this bros

00:51:36.440 --> 00:51:38.920
before hoes and it's very clear that love is

00:51:38.920 --> 00:51:40.760
in love with luna right like he goes this whole

00:51:40.760 --> 00:51:43.139
rave because he wants to chase her but hardik

00:51:43.139 --> 00:51:45.579
has no problem like you know hitting on luna

00:51:45.579 --> 00:51:47.599
the moment he sees her because he realizes how

00:51:47.599 --> 00:51:50.480
hot she is and so they're just kind of competing

00:51:50.480 --> 00:51:52.920
where he even tells love like just because you

00:51:52.920 --> 00:51:54.900
saw her first like doesn't mean you get admissions

00:51:54.900 --> 00:51:58.280
into it yeah i know this is like so basic but

00:51:58.280 --> 00:52:01.940
his arc hardik's arc is learning about consent

00:52:01.940 --> 00:52:05.059
i'm not like at the end of the movie he finally

00:52:05.059 --> 00:52:07.710
says like you know when we need to make sure

00:52:07.710 --> 00:52:09.389
the women agree with him and stuff. Like, he

00:52:09.389 --> 00:52:11.349
learns about consent in this movie. Because the

00:52:11.349 --> 00:52:13.730
zombie chases him. Yeah. And he realizes what

00:52:13.730 --> 00:52:17.070
he does with women. It's crazy. It's crazy, but

00:52:17.070 --> 00:52:19.250
I'm not kidding. His arc is just learning about

00:52:19.250 --> 00:52:24.590
consent. It's very weird. Yeah. Yeah, that's...

00:52:25.469 --> 00:52:27.969
wow at least he learns i feel like we're going

00:52:27.969 --> 00:52:30.030
too deep but maybe it's not that deep it's a

00:52:30.030 --> 00:52:35.130
nice because okay okay yeah go on because we

00:52:35.130 --> 00:52:37.469
all said this director's other films are like

00:52:37.469 --> 00:52:39.409
very serious and characters have an arc and i

00:52:39.409 --> 00:52:41.650
definitely like i think when they made a comedy

00:52:41.650 --> 00:52:43.909
like they made sure that characters have these

00:52:43.909 --> 00:52:46.949
things and there's like yeah metaphors and stuff

00:52:46.949 --> 00:52:49.769
yeah but in a funny way always in a funny way

00:52:49.769 --> 00:52:52.210
never became like too much serious into it yeah

00:52:52.639 --> 00:52:54.179
The film doesn't take itself very seriously.

00:52:54.199 --> 00:52:57.039
Right, right. But it does this fun and digs.

00:52:57.639 --> 00:53:00.880
So yeah, then I think at some point, Boris comes

00:53:00.880 --> 00:53:04.960
back and we find out the personal business was

00:53:04.960 --> 00:53:06.960
just a bunch of cocaine. And before Boris comes

00:53:06.960 --> 00:53:08.760
back, there is a zombie attack in the house and

00:53:08.760 --> 00:53:11.099
they had to run away from the house. And that's

00:53:11.099 --> 00:53:14.699
only the girl first kills the zombie. And then

00:53:14.699 --> 00:53:16.760
you remember the scene where Bunny was sleeping

00:53:16.760 --> 00:53:20.260
in the living room. Yeah, Bunny can sleep. And

00:53:20.260 --> 00:53:21.820
then like the zombie was attacking. And then

00:53:21.820 --> 00:53:24.579
it's like these two guys was like just like couldn't

00:53:24.579 --> 00:53:27.340
do anything proper. Just so dumb. Just like,

00:53:27.360 --> 00:53:29.639
you know, covering him with the zombie with the

00:53:29.639 --> 00:53:32.239
bed shit. And then like it's the girl who had

00:53:32.239 --> 00:53:35.889
to like. hit him on the head and kill the zombie.

00:53:35.969 --> 00:53:37.710
Wait, they cover him in the bed sheet and then

00:53:37.710 --> 00:53:40.190
they both jump on him. So there's these two guys

00:53:40.190 --> 00:53:43.530
straggling on this zombie. He's so stupid. He's

00:53:43.530 --> 00:53:45.309
like, no plan. He's like, what's the plan next?

00:53:45.349 --> 00:53:47.570
He's like, I don't know what to do. And then

00:53:47.570 --> 00:53:50.449
Bunny's just asleep through this entire trail.

00:53:50.929 --> 00:53:53.070
You ever hear about soaking? How Mormons have

00:53:53.070 --> 00:53:55.710
sex when they both lay on the bed and the friends

00:53:55.710 --> 00:53:59.309
jump around them so that they do penetration

00:53:59.309 --> 00:54:02.159
without... them moving their own bodies what

00:54:02.159 --> 00:54:05.760
i heard of it i forgot the term soaking i've

00:54:05.760 --> 00:54:07.480
never heard of that but there are a lot of like

00:54:07.480 --> 00:54:11.099
almost like gayish dynamics between hardik and

00:54:11.099 --> 00:54:13.559
love and you know based in dostana if you get

00:54:13.559 --> 00:54:16.099
dostana with zombies man that's kind of it but

00:54:16.099 --> 00:54:17.500
it's not really seen as gay it's just like they

00:54:17.500 --> 00:54:18.880
love each other because they're best friends

00:54:18.880 --> 00:54:20.480
they're like brothers almost but like at one

00:54:20.480 --> 00:54:21.940
point they're hugging each other and i think

00:54:21.940 --> 00:54:24.039
bunny walks in and bunny is always like yeah

00:54:24.039 --> 00:54:26.179
i've always been confused about you guys yeah

00:54:26.179 --> 00:54:30.179
i remember that yeah Anyway, Boris comes back

00:54:30.179 --> 00:54:34.579
and... We're all having gay fantasies in our

00:54:34.579 --> 00:54:38.820
head of them all having a four -way. And there's

00:54:38.820 --> 00:54:42.179
maybe a zombie joins. Luna just watches. Before

00:54:42.179 --> 00:54:43.920
Boris comes back, they were fleeing and then

00:54:43.920 --> 00:54:47.519
that's the part where Keeley mentions how Bunny

00:54:47.519 --> 00:54:49.920
was pointing out that he's going to be the side

00:54:49.920 --> 00:54:52.880
character that dies. And sure enough, when they're

00:54:52.880 --> 00:54:55.869
escaping the house, they had... They had this

00:54:55.869 --> 00:54:59.389
idea to pretend to be the zombies? Yeah. I think

00:54:59.389 --> 00:55:02.610
that was fucking stupid, man. Like, what? What

00:55:02.610 --> 00:55:05.070
kind of logic is that? Like, pretend to be zombies

00:55:05.070 --> 00:55:06.849
and suddenly, like, they don't notice you? But

00:55:06.849 --> 00:55:09.590
in the defense, it was working if he didn't talk

00:55:09.590 --> 00:55:12.289
to his ex -girlfriend there. Like, zombie of

00:55:12.289 --> 00:55:14.469
his ex -girlfriend. It was kind of working. Like,

00:55:14.469 --> 00:55:17.409
he was... He assimilated in the zombie group

00:55:17.409 --> 00:55:19.550
and he was, like, following them for a bit and

00:55:19.550 --> 00:55:21.269
then he couldn't... Which stopped him, so...

00:55:21.269 --> 00:55:23.369
If he was doing those movements outside of that,

00:55:23.409 --> 00:55:24.630
he would have been cancelled because he looks

00:55:24.630 --> 00:55:26.829
like he's, like, making fun of, like, an R -word

00:55:26.829 --> 00:55:29.550
person. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. R -word

00:55:29.550 --> 00:55:32.420
person. I don't know. Thomas. thing ever especially

00:55:32.420 --> 00:55:35.800
able people but yeah they they were running away

00:55:35.800 --> 00:55:38.860
and then like bunny inadvertently ends up in

00:55:38.860 --> 00:55:43.199
a tent yeah and the gang sees presumably sees

00:55:43.199 --> 00:55:46.699
him getting getting eaten up by a crowd of zombies

00:55:46.699 --> 00:55:49.539
they meet they meet boris and boris comes back

00:55:49.539 --> 00:55:52.300
and it turns out that he has a lot of cocaine

00:55:53.800 --> 00:55:56.179
I feel like we completely did a scenic route

00:55:56.179 --> 00:55:59.300
back to Boris having cocaine. Well, the cocaine

00:55:59.300 --> 00:56:01.480
plays a pretty important role. It's very important.

00:56:01.639 --> 00:56:03.639
It gets really important. It really is very important.

00:56:03.880 --> 00:56:07.579
Have you seen the movie Signed? And then just

00:56:07.579 --> 00:56:10.039
when the characters were so devastated losing

00:56:10.039 --> 00:56:15.039
their innocent bunny hopping friend, they get

00:56:15.039 --> 00:56:17.519
a call from him. It turns out Bunny is alive.

00:56:17.739 --> 00:56:20.590
They need to rescue him. I think the rescue comes

00:56:20.590 --> 00:56:23.190
first before the explanation, right? Yeah. I

00:56:23.190 --> 00:56:25.610
think so, yeah. So, for whatever reason, Bunny

00:56:25.610 --> 00:56:29.949
is on top of this, like, tower? Like, a watchtower?

00:56:30.250 --> 00:56:32.960
Yeah. And then, like, we have to get... rescue

00:56:32.960 --> 00:56:35.119
bunny but the thing that threw me off so much

00:56:35.119 --> 00:56:37.320
is like hardik decides to climb up to the tower

00:56:37.320 --> 00:56:40.780
i don't understand like what what like how does

00:56:40.780 --> 00:56:42.840
that even make sense like you climb up and rescue

00:56:42.840 --> 00:56:44.599
your friend and then how are you gonna get out

00:56:44.599 --> 00:56:47.579
of the tower it made no sense it's just one of

00:56:47.579 --> 00:56:50.059
those many like stupid things that the characters

00:56:50.059 --> 00:56:54.139
do there was one time i was here in bangkok with

00:56:54.139 --> 00:56:57.800
an ex -girlfriend who was an american ex -girlfriend

00:56:57.800 --> 00:57:01.440
who was visiting me and We were in a taxi with

00:57:01.440 --> 00:57:04.719
a crazy taxi driver who was like smoking meth

00:57:04.719 --> 00:57:07.019
or something. He was just very erratic and like

00:57:07.019 --> 00:57:08.840
dangerous. And that constantly we were trying

00:57:08.840 --> 00:57:10.079
to be like, should we get out of the cab? Should

00:57:10.079 --> 00:57:12.260
we get out of the cab? And then he finally gets

00:57:12.260 --> 00:57:15.380
to some stop like near a hotel and we just run

00:57:15.380 --> 00:57:18.320
out. I was like, for some reason, I just didn't

00:57:18.320 --> 00:57:19.719
want to pay him because I was being cheap and

00:57:19.719 --> 00:57:23.179
mean. But we run in through a parking lot garage

00:57:23.179 --> 00:57:26.360
at the hotel and the guards are chasing us and

00:57:26.360 --> 00:57:28.869
we're looking over. ledge and at one point I

00:57:28.869 --> 00:57:30.510
almost like jumped off the ledge with her to

00:57:30.510 --> 00:57:32.309
escape paying like a hundred baht to the sex

00:57:32.309 --> 00:57:36.230
driver. Drugs was a very influential part of

00:57:36.230 --> 00:57:38.989
this decision making is my point. Was it coke?

00:57:40.829 --> 00:57:43.010
That was just bleeding out of the wall actually.

00:57:43.750 --> 00:57:47.449
And then like they did jump off the tower. They

00:57:47.449 --> 00:57:50.530
did. This is the second time. I think on the

00:57:50.530 --> 00:57:54.980
tower he explains like how he was alive to to

00:57:54.980 --> 00:57:57.699
uh hardik i guess right or he does it afterwards

00:57:57.699 --> 00:57:59.519
i don't remember but like the explanation is

00:57:59.519 --> 00:58:01.920
basically like when he ends up in the tent there

00:58:01.920 --> 00:58:04.980
was another guy that was just hiding out and

00:58:04.980 --> 00:58:07.179
it's that guy that died that's it that's really

00:58:07.179 --> 00:58:11.159
funny no but he finds finds out like how to stop

00:58:11.159 --> 00:58:13.380
the zombies accidentally so that connects the

00:58:13.380 --> 00:58:16.760
story later so he finds out that if he you throw

00:58:16.760 --> 00:58:19.699
like cocaine too on these zombies and then like

00:58:20.030 --> 00:58:22.309
somehow these zombies are stopping like they're

00:58:22.309 --> 00:58:24.550
not attacking anymore they're just becoming stand

00:58:24.550 --> 00:58:27.769
still so that's how you escape so that then like

00:58:27.769 --> 00:58:32.239
they tell this thing to Boris so that Boris can

00:58:32.239 --> 00:58:37.300
do that. But it's so funny that he does discover

00:58:37.300 --> 00:58:40.300
that when you throw cocaine at them, it immobilizes

00:58:40.300 --> 00:58:42.420
them. But I don't know the science behind it.

00:58:42.519 --> 00:58:44.300
It's like you throw powder at them and they're

00:58:44.300 --> 00:58:46.099
like, oh. Well, he mentioned because they are

00:58:46.099 --> 00:58:47.760
technically on drugs, right? That's how they

00:58:47.760 --> 00:58:49.960
became zombies. That if you mix certain drugs,

00:58:50.139 --> 00:58:52.420
then it will create a different sensation. So

00:58:52.420 --> 00:58:54.420
he just decided to throw cocaine because that's

00:58:54.420 --> 00:58:57.139
what was available and it worked. They're overwhelmed,

00:58:57.380 --> 00:59:01.539
I think. Boris explained that this might be the

00:59:01.539 --> 00:59:05.920
case. Boris brought the explanation that it might

00:59:05.920 --> 00:59:09.039
be double effects and side effects of each other

00:59:09.039 --> 00:59:11.039
and then they're just becoming this thing. It's

00:59:11.039 --> 00:59:14.260
quite ironic because when you do cocaine, usually

00:59:14.260 --> 00:59:18.340
from what I hear, it energizes you. It wakes

00:59:18.340 --> 00:59:20.840
you up. Probably because we're alive, but because

00:59:20.840 --> 00:59:23.380
these zombies are technically dead, maybe it

00:59:23.380 --> 00:59:25.440
has the opposite effect as it would have on humans

00:59:25.440 --> 00:59:27.599
and just completely like... It's a downer instead

00:59:27.599 --> 00:59:30.119
of an upper. I think all they wanted was like

00:59:30.119 --> 00:59:32.860
drugs. Like after the dose of the red drugs,

00:59:33.019 --> 00:59:35.199
the red pill drug, like all they wanted was to

00:59:35.199 --> 00:59:38.280
get high and Coke gave them the ultimate kick

00:59:38.280 --> 00:59:41.280
and they're like, okay, we are contented in ourselves

00:59:41.280 --> 00:59:43.139
now. But Coke is a weird one to do because it's

00:59:43.139 --> 00:59:45.920
like five minutes of contentment and then like

00:59:45.920 --> 00:59:48.460
they should be rushing at them again. Yeah, I

00:59:48.460 --> 00:59:50.659
mean, they left by that time. They didn't stop

00:59:50.659 --> 00:59:53.440
and watch like what they do afterwards. Yeah,

00:59:53.460 --> 00:59:56.820
like Boris is chucking like 10 ,000, dollars

00:59:56.820 --> 00:59:59.519
worth of cocaine like clay pigeons into the air

00:59:59.519 --> 01:00:01.739
and they shoot it with a shotgun and the cocaine

01:00:01.739 --> 01:00:04.780
sprays everywhere down like confetti and it like

01:00:04.780 --> 01:00:06.900
stops all the zombies in their tracks I was kind

01:00:06.900 --> 01:00:10.760
of singing like it's raining coke it's raining

01:00:10.760 --> 01:00:16.800
coke great song great bachelorette song is it

01:00:16.800 --> 01:00:19.079
a real song or you wrote it it's usually it's

01:00:19.079 --> 01:00:21.519
raining men but in this movie it was just raining

01:00:21.519 --> 01:00:24.280
coke yeah that's the better rain is that better

01:00:24.280 --> 01:00:30.380
yeah okay Raining men would kill the men. Yeah,

01:00:30.400 --> 01:00:33.340
that's a super good point. It's dangerous. So

01:00:33.340 --> 01:00:36.360
yeah, Boris has a lot of coke. And now he doesn't

01:00:36.360 --> 01:00:38.940
have a lot of coke. He just got rid of it. And

01:00:38.940 --> 01:00:41.119
I was like, I rolled my eyes because like, of

01:00:41.119 --> 01:00:44.760
course, that's how we show that we lose the drugs.

01:00:44.980 --> 01:00:48.260
You know, you can never be a bad person at the

01:00:48.260 --> 01:00:50.260
same time as a good person. Well, they still

01:00:50.260 --> 01:00:52.500
do weed at the end. Okay, but still. Weeds aren't

01:00:52.500 --> 01:00:57.050
a drug. They blow weed. Yeah. And the movie frames

01:00:57.050 --> 01:00:58.869
it that way, because they say, like, it becomes

01:00:58.869 --> 01:01:00.969
a big say no to drugs, but then at the end, they're

01:01:00.969 --> 01:01:03.250
all smoking weed. It's a weird, like, pro -weed,

01:01:03.269 --> 01:01:05.010
anti -drug movie. Because they're like, yeah,

01:01:05.030 --> 01:01:08.610
cocaine, pills, all this stuff is bad, but weed,

01:01:08.710 --> 01:01:10.750
we're going to make a whole song about it. Are

01:01:10.750 --> 01:01:12.969
y 'all saying this because, you know, the Prime

01:01:12.969 --> 01:01:15.809
Minister is pro -weed? That's the only reason.

01:01:15.829 --> 01:01:19.130
No, but that's great news. That has been, like,

01:01:19.409 --> 01:01:23.530
a very prominent, like a... thing in india like

01:01:23.530 --> 01:01:26.949
weed is okay like our generation like no hard

01:01:26.949 --> 01:01:29.090
drugs like they were like i never did anything

01:01:29.090 --> 01:01:32.110
in india and i was like smoking weed all the

01:01:32.110 --> 01:01:33.829
time and it was very common you just don't see

01:01:33.829 --> 01:01:36.809
it in film a lot when the gang was reunited with

01:01:36.809 --> 01:01:39.550
boris and nikolai to the rescue nikolai gets

01:01:39.550 --> 01:01:44.289
bit yeah and then like they there's like this

01:01:44.289 --> 01:01:49.050
quick sad moment where they decide to leave him

01:01:49.050 --> 01:01:52.800
stranded away from the car, the jeep, and then,

01:01:52.820 --> 01:01:55.099
like, Nikolai says, like, give me the vodka,

01:01:55.179 --> 01:01:57.599
of course, because he's Russian. And then, like,

01:01:57.699 --> 01:02:00.940
so after they rescued Bunny, right, the final

01:02:00.940 --> 01:02:04.500
boss is, like, a zombified version of Nikolai.

01:02:04.679 --> 01:02:07.079
Yeah. And he was, like, on top of the tower.

01:02:07.860 --> 01:02:10.860
And good lord, as he was about to jump and attack

01:02:10.860 --> 01:02:15.400
Boris, we get, like, this ridiculous action moment.

01:02:15.820 --> 01:02:19.039
They throw, the gang throws a rocket launcher.

01:02:20.650 --> 01:02:24.010
oh my god yeah i forgot boris just like shoots

01:02:24.010 --> 01:02:27.530
the rocket to nicolai and just like he just goes

01:02:27.530 --> 01:02:29.949
up and then boom i was like oh my god it's a

01:02:29.949 --> 01:02:33.309
straight up after effects explosion yeah like

01:02:33.309 --> 01:02:35.610
in the middle of nowhere some guy just like pasted

01:02:35.610 --> 01:02:38.769
a gif of like an explosion in the air no when

01:02:38.769 --> 01:02:40.789
when nicolai left like i thought like he's gonna

01:02:40.789 --> 01:02:43.150
kill himself because before becoming a zombie

01:02:43.150 --> 01:02:45.389
that's a common trope in zombie films like right

01:02:45.389 --> 01:02:47.820
like like people friends who get beaten like

01:02:47.820 --> 01:02:50.559
so i thought that but like they brought him back

01:02:50.559 --> 01:02:53.199
and then made that scene yeah awesome very quick

01:02:53.199 --> 01:02:55.679
scene which also it reminds me of zombie land

01:02:55.679 --> 01:02:57.960
because they had like that clown at the very

01:02:57.960 --> 01:03:01.219
end they did there was a clown it it did feel

01:03:01.219 --> 01:03:03.929
like that scene They were fighting the final

01:03:03.929 --> 01:03:06.210
boss. But we can all agree that we kind of saw

01:03:06.210 --> 01:03:08.190
Nikolai's death coming, right? Because throughout

01:03:08.190 --> 01:03:10.510
the movie, like the movie makes no effort to

01:03:10.510 --> 01:03:12.349
center on his character. You don't get any kind

01:03:12.349 --> 01:03:14.530
of emotional attachment to him. Nothing. He was

01:03:14.530 --> 01:03:16.469
like one of those disposable characters from

01:03:16.469 --> 01:03:20.090
the beginning. He's actually Russian. So nobody

01:03:20.090 --> 01:03:22.630
cares. He's not Indian. We can kill him. Boris

01:03:22.630 --> 01:03:25.170
was talking to him in Russian. So I want to know,

01:03:25.289 --> 01:03:27.750
badass. But he did say to Nikolai, like, what

01:03:27.750 --> 01:03:29.750
did he say? Did he say dasvidanya or some shit?

01:03:29.989 --> 01:03:31.909
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Also, like, there was one point

01:03:31.909 --> 01:03:33.889
of dialogue I remember because most of the time

01:03:33.889 --> 01:03:36.710
he was talking about Nikolai. But he was never,

01:03:36.710 --> 01:03:40.130
like, talking to him a lot. But I remember seeing

01:03:40.130 --> 01:03:43.610
some scenes. Maybe it's, like, not always. Maybe

01:03:43.610 --> 01:03:47.230
he spoke English to him at one point. But I remember

01:03:47.230 --> 01:03:51.949
seeing him, like, talking, like, Russian. to

01:03:51.949 --> 01:03:54.489
Nikolai but I don't know like how good that was

01:03:54.489 --> 01:03:56.170
that's why I was asking like if anyone knows

01:03:56.170 --> 01:03:58.210
did you notice when they whenever the characters

01:03:58.210 --> 01:04:00.710
speak Russian and the subtitles do come up yeah

01:04:00.710 --> 01:04:03.130
the font is like it's a different Russianized

01:04:03.130 --> 01:04:06.429
very Russianized I love that I love that when

01:04:06.429 --> 01:04:08.489
they do that stuff that's fun that was really

01:04:08.489 --> 01:04:10.610
fun yeah okay anyway so they killed Nikolai and

01:04:10.610 --> 01:04:13.130
they managed to like secure a boat after like

01:04:13.130 --> 01:04:16.690
having a quick little funny scene with this woman

01:04:16.690 --> 01:04:19.570
please please go into this scene because it took

01:04:19.570 --> 01:04:22.599
me off guard like i was like what is going on

01:04:22.599 --> 01:04:25.360
i hated okay i personally didn't like that scene

01:04:25.360 --> 01:04:27.860
so the boat that they need to secure it's being

01:04:27.860 --> 01:04:31.460
occupied by the woman that hardik slept with

01:04:31.460 --> 01:04:34.659
the night before and they need her to get off

01:04:34.659 --> 01:04:38.000
the boat somehow right and hardik has to like

01:04:39.359 --> 01:04:41.820
Sweet talker? Well, Boris is ready to shoot her,

01:04:41.860 --> 01:04:43.739
but they still want to show humanity to a zombie,

01:04:43.840 --> 01:04:46.059
so obviously they have not gotten any smarter

01:04:46.059 --> 01:04:49.360
throughout the movie. And so he tries to sweet

01:04:49.360 --> 01:04:51.039
talk her out of the boat, and you get this whole

01:04:51.039 --> 01:04:54.400
scene where she's chasing him in the woods. And

01:04:54.400 --> 01:04:55.780
at first I'm like, what the fuck's going on?

01:04:55.840 --> 01:04:57.219
I thought it was serious. And all of a sudden

01:04:57.219 --> 01:05:00.139
they end up at a tree, and you get this classic

01:05:00.139 --> 01:05:03.880
Bollywood scene where they just take turns going

01:05:03.880 --> 01:05:06.170
on opposite sides. putting their heads out on

01:05:06.170 --> 01:05:08.469
the opposite side of the tree and never meeting.

01:05:08.670 --> 01:05:11.269
And that's when you realize that this scene is

01:05:11.269 --> 01:05:14.250
actually just mocking Bollywood song scenes.

01:05:14.670 --> 01:05:18.130
Yeah. It's a parody. What happens to her? They

01:05:18.130 --> 01:05:20.869
just let... They distracted her and then got

01:05:20.869 --> 01:05:23.269
on the boat. Oh, she lives? She lives and she

01:05:23.269 --> 01:05:25.610
kind of watches the boat go off into the shore.

01:05:26.679 --> 01:05:30.940
Yeah, that was a clear nod and like making fun

01:05:30.940 --> 01:05:33.360
of like classic Bollywood dance sequence around

01:05:33.360 --> 01:05:36.039
the trees. I remember even my film school teacher

01:05:36.039 --> 01:05:38.920
like once told me like I was I went to like his

01:05:38.920 --> 01:05:41.880
graduation film script that was I was writing

01:05:41.880 --> 01:05:44.619
at that point of time. And I showed him and he's

01:05:44.619 --> 01:05:48.000
like, why is your script are always so depressed

01:05:48.000 --> 01:05:50.559
and dark? You should have some love in your life

01:05:50.559 --> 01:05:53.360
and run around dance around. trees like that's

01:05:53.360 --> 01:05:55.960
what exactly so it's like a very common reference

01:05:55.960 --> 01:05:59.280
to make fun of in like you know you should like

01:05:59.280 --> 01:06:01.920
fall in love and dance around trees like that's

01:06:01.920 --> 01:06:04.360
like a thing people say as well when i was in

01:06:04.360 --> 01:06:06.960
calcutta at that i told you like the what's that

01:06:06.960 --> 01:06:09.679
victoria memorial park the victoria memorial

01:06:09.679 --> 01:06:13.519
park you go there and it's just all these couples

01:06:13.519 --> 01:06:16.179
making out next to trees yeah everyone's hiding

01:06:16.179 --> 01:06:18.599
behind a tree making out and being handsy it

01:06:18.599 --> 01:06:20.460
was like i was just walking around the daytime

01:06:20.460 --> 01:06:23.360
being shocked by just everyone hiding behind

01:06:23.360 --> 01:06:28.840
a tree it's it's a real trope and also hardik

01:06:28.840 --> 01:06:31.800
learns to do consent with the zombie like that's

01:06:31.800 --> 01:06:34.619
the one time when he's like let's not hurt her

01:06:34.619 --> 01:06:37.099
or kill her like let's be nice and like ask her

01:06:37.099 --> 01:06:39.360
politely like that's the one time you could kill

01:06:39.360 --> 01:06:41.159
her and it has nothing to do with the fact that

01:06:41.159 --> 01:06:43.239
if he touches her he'll literally become a zombie

01:06:43.239 --> 01:06:46.179
that's definitely not a deterrent at all no correct

01:06:46.179 --> 01:06:50.079
but okay like now that being said right they

01:06:50.079 --> 01:06:52.940
did secure the boat and on the way to the to

01:06:52.940 --> 01:06:56.260
go all right this is the scene that really took

01:06:56.260 --> 01:06:58.480
me out maybe i didn't see it coming maybe because

01:06:58.480 --> 01:07:01.320
i was stoned off my ass watching this but they

01:07:01.320 --> 01:07:04.599
were like having a moment of reflection and then

01:07:04.599 --> 01:07:06.639
the characters are like what do we learn and

01:07:06.639 --> 01:07:10.579
oh my god the moral message it hits so it's right

01:07:10.579 --> 01:07:15.139
into your face drugs are bad my god man i should

01:07:15.139 --> 01:07:18.000
have seen it coming man i think we see it coming

01:07:18.000 --> 01:07:20.719
when we find the cocaine they find the cocaine

01:07:20.719 --> 01:07:23.519
and boris jokingly asks like you guys want some

01:07:23.519 --> 01:07:26.559
and then hardik and lava already like no not

01:07:26.559 --> 01:07:28.940
after the pills kind of vibe and then but they

01:07:28.940 --> 01:07:30.920
you know that was more discreet you gotta read

01:07:30.920 --> 01:07:33.280
into it but at that end scene when they're like

01:07:33.280 --> 01:07:35.780
say no to drugs it becomes so obvious this was

01:07:35.780 --> 01:07:39.599
just a dare movie all along exactly it was there

01:07:39.599 --> 01:07:42.099
the whole time and like the the whole zombies

01:07:42.099 --> 01:07:44.619
getting like people getting zombified it's like

01:07:44.619 --> 01:07:46.880
an allegory or like a metaphor of them getting

01:07:46.880 --> 01:07:50.179
high it was like barely because they take the

01:07:50.179 --> 01:07:52.719
drug and become a zombie it's like barely an

01:07:52.719 --> 01:07:56.900
allegory it's pretty on the nose I was a little

01:07:56.900 --> 01:07:59.139
too preachy for my taste. I mean, after this

01:07:59.139 --> 01:08:00.679
movie, you're definitely not taking random pills

01:08:00.679 --> 01:08:03.880
at a party. It will make you think twice. But

01:08:03.880 --> 01:08:05.820
then you're more likely to go to a party because

01:08:05.820 --> 01:08:08.400
they make the rave look quite fun. Yeah, I guess

01:08:08.400 --> 01:08:10.179
not. I guess I won't do that anymore. Yeah, no

01:08:10.179 --> 01:08:13.119
powder. The last part. Okay, they made it to

01:08:13.119 --> 01:08:17.180
Goa. And then what did they find? The whole city

01:08:17.180 --> 01:08:19.739
is in ruins. And then you get like a cliffhanger.

01:08:20.340 --> 01:08:25.220
It's like, yeah. sequel hook also there is a

01:08:25.220 --> 01:08:27.260
sequel in the making they announced this last

01:08:27.260 --> 01:08:31.560
year but there is no confirmation about the release

01:08:31.560 --> 01:08:38.720
date go go a gone 2 just a regular sequel I read

01:08:38.720 --> 01:08:41.720
it's in a production limbo so like maybe things

01:08:41.720 --> 01:08:44.220
going around like remember sarpata has like a

01:08:44.220 --> 01:08:47.680
sequel toomba has a sequel why is it true why

01:08:47.680 --> 01:08:50.680
does everything need a sequel man but also a

01:08:50.680 --> 01:08:52.720
lot of these sequels don't seem to materialize

01:08:52.720 --> 01:08:55.699
or take a very long time to come out go go gone

01:08:55.699 --> 01:08:58.220
sounds like it would be a it can be a fun sequel

01:08:58.220 --> 01:09:00.739
for sure it would be fun yeah but toomba too

01:09:00.739 --> 01:09:04.199
please sarpata too oh my god but koimi got a

01:09:04.199 --> 01:09:07.840
sequel in a superhero film philosophy corner

01:09:09.159 --> 01:09:11.699
No, I wanted to say the zombie thing, right?

01:09:11.920 --> 01:09:16.380
Like, in the movie, they bring up, like, you

01:09:16.380 --> 01:09:17.979
talked about Killy. Like, they're trying to figure

01:09:17.979 --> 01:09:19.460
out who these monsters are. And they're like,

01:09:19.500 --> 01:09:22.520
is it zombies? Is it vampires and stuff? So the

01:09:22.520 --> 01:09:23.939
movie's pretty aware of, like, these different

01:09:23.939 --> 01:09:26.800
tropes. And they're right. Like, it is a Western

01:09:26.800 --> 01:09:30.939
thing. And when they said we imported these zombies

01:09:30.939 --> 01:09:34.520
due to globalism, like, my ears perked up. Because,

01:09:34.560 --> 01:09:37.220
like, yes, traditionally. You have the zombie

01:09:37.220 --> 01:09:39.979
genre, right? And the vampires are genre. And

01:09:39.979 --> 01:09:43.399
they're both very strong, like Western anxieties.

01:09:43.800 --> 01:09:47.260
The vampire trope is like elitist, right? Like

01:09:47.260 --> 01:09:50.159
they live in these castles, they hoard wealth,

01:09:50.279 --> 01:09:53.159
they live forever, and they live off the blood

01:09:53.159 --> 01:09:56.159
of like peasants and stuff, right? And there's

01:09:56.159 --> 01:09:58.239
just a few of them. So it's this fear of like

01:09:58.239 --> 01:10:01.920
these elites controlling everything and being

01:10:01.920 --> 01:10:04.500
like an unkillable force that just eats off,

01:10:04.600 --> 01:10:07.340
you know. the lower classes. And then the zombies

01:10:07.340 --> 01:10:09.880
are like a middle -class anxiety of immigrants

01:10:09.880 --> 01:10:13.180
and people coming like the, the dirty unwashed

01:10:13.180 --> 01:10:16.600
masses and how if they get close enough to them,

01:10:16.680 --> 01:10:18.699
they will get sucked in and be removed from the

01:10:18.699 --> 01:10:20.779
middle class and be thrown into the unwashed

01:10:20.779 --> 01:10:22.640
masses. Like that's why when you see like the

01:10:22.640 --> 01:10:25.079
early zombie films, they did take place in malls

01:10:25.079 --> 01:10:28.560
and stuff. It's like homes and third spaces for

01:10:28.560 --> 01:10:31.279
suburban people. And they're getting run over

01:10:31.279 --> 01:10:34.359
and taken over by these like masses. Right. So.

01:10:34.909 --> 01:10:36.430
in this movie when they're saying the zombies

01:10:36.430 --> 01:10:39.109
are being imported what they're referring to

01:10:39.109 --> 01:10:41.510
is they're they've taken on because of globalization

01:10:41.510 --> 01:10:45.970
this anxiety as well of foreigners so it's specifically

01:10:45.970 --> 01:10:51.270
like goa and the tourist industry is creating

01:10:51.270 --> 01:10:55.489
this kind of immigrant population that's like

01:10:55.489 --> 01:10:58.470
sucking off the land right And what's really

01:10:58.470 --> 01:11:00.470
interesting is the Boris character because he

01:11:00.470 --> 01:11:04.130
is actually a zombie character. He says his blood

01:11:04.130 --> 01:11:06.729
has been transfused with vodka. He is an Indian

01:11:06.729 --> 01:11:10.989
character that got zombified by an outside influence,

01:11:11.250 --> 01:11:13.449
which is Russia, changed his whole appearance.

01:11:13.630 --> 01:11:15.949
He gets saved at the end. He's the one zombie

01:11:15.949 --> 01:11:18.350
that's able to come back and get his identity

01:11:18.350 --> 01:11:30.829
back. uh tourism that makes them prey on the

01:11:30.829 --> 01:11:33.630
locals as well like they these these people from

01:11:33.630 --> 01:11:36.189
mumbai go to goa and they along with like the

01:11:36.189 --> 01:11:39.029
russian mafia are preying on like the native

01:11:39.029 --> 01:11:43.149
goa population because that's like the the zombie

01:11:43.149 --> 01:11:45.170
curse right they start eating each other alive

01:11:45.170 --> 01:11:49.029
and so the fear isn't like necessarily drugs

01:11:49.029 --> 01:11:51.289
because they're smoking weed the whole time and

01:11:51.289 --> 01:11:53.750
they have a song about weed their fear is imported

01:11:53.750 --> 01:11:58.760
drugs it's the the not natural like drugs coming

01:11:58.760 --> 01:12:00.920
in from other countries right that's the thing

01:12:00.920 --> 01:12:02.420
they're worried about so what they have to get

01:12:02.420 --> 01:12:04.500
rid of all the cocaine because that's imported

01:12:04.500 --> 01:12:06.979
but if they stick to the weed that comes from

01:12:06.979 --> 01:12:09.520
india they're fine right it's a fear of the outside

01:12:09.520 --> 01:12:13.380
so that's that's kind of like what i took from

01:12:13.380 --> 01:12:16.800
like the whole tourism goa aspect of the zombies

01:12:16.800 --> 01:12:19.539
thinking my money made your country i don't know

01:12:19.539 --> 01:12:24.380
i mean yeah like that's you know you get these

01:12:24.380 --> 01:12:28.260
like rich you know white people coming in just

01:12:28.260 --> 01:12:30.939
you know taking over the land and partying and

01:12:30.939 --> 01:12:32.819
stuff and spending all this extra money and they're

01:12:32.819 --> 01:12:34.800
just brainless zombies that you have to serve

01:12:34.800 --> 01:12:36.960
them and if you want to join their ranks you

01:12:36.960 --> 01:12:40.260
have to also start acting like that to the native

01:12:40.260 --> 01:12:42.739
population too and it's it'll wreck your brain

01:12:42.739 --> 01:12:46.020
i mean it's really close it's close to home for

01:12:46.020 --> 01:12:49.800
me or maybe for you as well when right it's infested

01:12:49.800 --> 01:12:54.140
by you know white people taking drugs and partying

01:12:54.140 --> 01:12:57.279
on the island and being entitled and you know

01:12:57.279 --> 01:12:58.779
it's what you're i guess it's related to what

01:12:58.779 --> 01:13:00.420
you're saying yeah and if you're a thai person

01:13:00.420 --> 01:13:04.539
joining them you are partaking in the same type

01:13:04.539 --> 01:13:08.119
of like wreckage of that culture taking advantage

01:13:08.119 --> 01:13:10.079
of it even if you don't want to but that is seen

01:13:10.079 --> 01:13:13.340
as like a class symbol you know and if you want

01:13:13.340 --> 01:13:14.880
to blend in you have to tear each other apart

01:13:14.880 --> 01:13:16.859
that's the zombie aspect is now you're eating

01:13:16.859 --> 01:13:19.819
each other alive because of this i think this

01:13:19.819 --> 01:13:21.640
movie was way ahead of its time though because

01:13:21.640 --> 01:13:24.260
in the sense that 10 15 10 12 years ago when

01:13:24.260 --> 01:13:26.500
this movie was made we probably hadn't reached

01:13:26.500 --> 01:13:29.600
the point yet where you would openly compare

01:13:29.600 --> 01:13:32.699
like a drug user a heavy drug user to a zombie

01:13:32.699 --> 01:13:36.239
i think what like aligns the anxiety of the zombies

01:13:36.239 --> 01:13:38.659
with the fear of drugs is like it could happen

01:13:38.659 --> 01:13:42.920
to your kid you know like zombies, you know,

01:13:42.920 --> 01:13:45.159
the fear of zombies come in your proximity and

01:13:45.159 --> 01:13:47.300
you or your family members get lost to them.

01:13:47.359 --> 01:13:50.739
And same with drug use, right? Like you have

01:13:50.739 --> 01:13:52.979
like a white collar son and then they get sucked

01:13:52.979 --> 01:13:54.819
into that world and then that's it, right? It

01:13:54.819 --> 01:13:57.420
taps into the same anxiety. What are your thoughts,

01:13:57.439 --> 01:14:03.380
Nikki? I don't know why you're singling me out,

01:14:03.439 --> 01:14:07.000
man. I was just like nodding in agreement. Yeah.

01:14:08.210 --> 01:14:11.710
Anything else? Zombies. I realized, did you know

01:14:11.710 --> 01:14:15.810
the zombies comes from Haitian people? I was

01:14:15.810 --> 01:14:19.270
just reading on zombie media for this podcast.

01:14:19.770 --> 01:14:22.850
Another factor, if you read some of the zombie

01:14:22.850 --> 01:14:25.810
stories, like I Am Legend. Will Smith made a

01:14:25.810 --> 01:14:28.630
movie about it, but it changed the ending. But

01:14:28.630 --> 01:14:33.090
the real I Am Legend story is the zombies eventually

01:14:33.090 --> 01:14:35.890
populate the world so much that the lone survivor

01:14:35.890 --> 01:14:40.039
human is... the freak now like he is the outside

01:14:40.039 --> 01:14:43.140
force the zombies have fully acclimated and they're

01:14:43.140 --> 01:14:45.819
the primary uh living things there and that's

01:14:45.819 --> 01:14:47.520
also part of the big fear especially like with

01:14:47.520 --> 01:14:50.340
immigrants and stuff is you know you hear those

01:14:50.340 --> 01:14:53.220
like lies about like white you know declining

01:14:53.220 --> 01:14:55.579
birth rates or whatever but like that's the fear

01:14:55.579 --> 01:14:57.100
is like they will come and take over and then

01:14:57.100 --> 01:14:58.960
i will be the weird one instead of the majority

01:14:58.960 --> 01:15:02.680
and so i think yeah people get have huge anxiety

01:15:02.680 --> 01:15:05.760
about a culture encroaching on them and and they're

01:15:05.760 --> 01:15:08.560
they're The weird ones now. Wait, are you referring

01:15:08.560 --> 01:15:11.939
to, like, white replacement theory? Yeah. It's

01:15:11.939 --> 01:15:14.500
the same thing. Of, like, because there's more

01:15:14.500 --> 01:15:15.979
of them, there's less of us. Like, there's a

01:15:15.979 --> 01:15:18.399
zero -sum game or something. But they're not

01:15:18.399 --> 01:15:20.960
zombies. They're people. Yeah. Right. Right.

01:15:21.079 --> 01:15:24.079
There we go. Boom. Full circle. You're afraid

01:15:24.079 --> 01:15:26.260
of Red Pillars. We're just stone, and we're like,

01:15:26.340 --> 01:15:29.319
ah. Genius. So deep. And when they bite someone,

01:15:29.479 --> 01:15:31.260
they might turn into Red Pillars themselves.

01:15:31.760 --> 01:15:35.149
All right. Staircase moment. I guess when the

01:15:35.149 --> 01:15:37.010
movie just turns into a zombie movie, other being

01:15:37.010 --> 01:15:39.689
a rom -com, it starts kind of as a rom -com in

01:15:39.689 --> 01:15:41.710
some sorts. And then all of a sudden, everyone

01:15:41.710 --> 01:15:45.069
turns into zombies. I was reading a lot of the

01:15:45.069 --> 01:15:47.869
reviews and it seems like what critics were saying

01:15:47.869 --> 01:15:51.170
was that it was very engaging and interesting

01:15:51.170 --> 01:15:53.689
in the first half. And in the second half, it's

01:15:53.689 --> 01:15:57.109
just about them trying to survive a zombie apocalypse.

01:15:57.689 --> 01:16:00.489
I think that's how zombie films are usually.

01:16:00.810 --> 01:16:03.409
I think they work on the trope. Right, right.

01:16:04.170 --> 01:16:06.489
I think for me, the staircase moments was like

01:16:06.489 --> 01:16:10.890
when I found out that Bunny is alive. No, I wasn't

01:16:10.890 --> 01:16:12.989
that sure. Yeah, I kind of saw that coming. What

01:16:12.989 --> 01:16:16.949
about Boris? Boris is Indian? I think we're all

01:16:16.949 --> 01:16:19.170
mispronouncing his name because he clearly spends

01:16:19.170 --> 01:16:21.569
a minute in the movie teaching us how to pronounce

01:16:21.569 --> 01:16:24.590
his name. And it's more like Boris. Boris. Oh,

01:16:24.609 --> 01:16:27.090
Boris. Yeah, something like that. We should call

01:16:27.090 --> 01:16:28.689
our friend. We have a friend whose name like

01:16:28.689 --> 01:16:33.819
that. Boris. Boris. Boris. Yeah, that was wild

01:16:33.819 --> 01:16:35.800
to me when he's like, I'm Indian. I just dyed

01:16:35.800 --> 01:16:38.420
my hair. I think that's my staircase moment.

01:16:38.819 --> 01:16:43.300
It didn't go anywhere from there. We just accepted

01:16:43.300 --> 01:16:45.739
that he's Indian. That's it. There was nothing

01:16:45.739 --> 01:16:50.720
to it. What a fun role. Dance floor claws? Well,

01:16:50.720 --> 01:16:53.640
there's an end credit song where it's all like...

01:16:53.949 --> 01:16:55.789
You love that song. I love that song. I love

01:16:55.789 --> 01:16:58.289
that song. I just didn't think that... Okay,

01:16:58.409 --> 01:17:01.369
maybe from my, like, narrow -minded view, I didn't

01:17:01.369 --> 01:17:03.810
think there would be an Indian song that, like,

01:17:03.909 --> 01:17:06.909
is very pro -wee. I know, I love it. I didn't

01:17:06.909 --> 01:17:09.170
see that coming. And you can tell, like, the

01:17:09.170 --> 01:17:11.289
way it's sung, the way it's, like, structured,

01:17:11.409 --> 01:17:13.909
it's like they're just having a good time. Like,

01:17:13.949 --> 01:17:16.180
just... There are many songs, but I haven't heard

01:17:16.180 --> 01:17:18.340
much in Bollywood. Like, there are many songs

01:17:18.340 --> 01:17:20.619
from bands, like, from independent artists about

01:17:20.619 --> 01:17:22.939
weed. Like, there are so much. India is big on

01:17:22.939 --> 01:17:26.239
weed. Like, so many songs about weed. But, like,

01:17:26.279 --> 01:17:29.079
never heard... Oh, no, no, there are. There are.

01:17:29.140 --> 01:17:31.760
What am I talking about? Sorry. Mainstream songs.

01:17:31.760 --> 01:17:33.979
There are, like, in 80s, 70s, 80s, all the hippie

01:17:33.979 --> 01:17:36.020
crime. And then, like, there are films... Okay,

01:17:36.140 --> 01:17:37.859
weed songs have been very popular in Bollywood.

01:17:37.859 --> 01:17:41.039
Sorry. My staircase moment is Killy. Just figuring

01:17:41.039 --> 01:17:43.199
out that there are so many weed songs in Bollywood.

01:17:43.199 --> 01:17:44.680
Backing off that claim. But my favorite dance

01:17:44.680 --> 01:17:47.439
scene is when the zombie lady is chasing him

01:17:47.439 --> 01:17:50.239
and they have a whole tree moment. I'd say that

01:17:50.239 --> 01:17:54.039
was pretty epic and really weird. In Evil Dead,

01:17:54.140 --> 01:17:56.500
there's a tree rape scene that they have seen

01:17:56.500 --> 01:17:59.380
because it's in both of them. But I'd say this

01:17:59.380 --> 01:18:01.220
is more of playing to the Bollywood trope. It

01:18:01.220 --> 01:18:06.520
came out very, very cliche. Family feud factor.

01:18:08.070 --> 01:18:10.250
There wasn't any extended family, was there?

01:18:10.329 --> 01:18:12.609
There was no family. They were roommates, if

01:18:12.609 --> 01:18:14.430
I call them family. They had a lot of family.

01:18:15.050 --> 01:18:18.390
A lot of brotherly dynamic, for sure. and then

01:18:18.390 --> 01:18:21.430
like yeah they they they were using and abusing

01:18:21.430 --> 01:18:24.350
bunny the whole time and then when only they

01:18:24.350 --> 01:18:27.270
think that he has died they come into senses

01:18:27.270 --> 01:18:29.350
that how they have been exploiting this poor

01:18:29.350 --> 01:18:31.569
guy wait we should just point out when at that

01:18:31.569 --> 01:18:33.789
point when they think that he is dead and they're

01:18:33.789 --> 01:18:35.430
really sad about it for a minute and then they're

01:18:35.430 --> 01:18:37.810
like well if he was alive he would be stuck at

01:18:37.810 --> 01:18:41.029
that stupid ass meeting yeah yeah they act like

01:18:41.029 --> 01:18:43.029
they saved him from being at that dumb meeting

01:18:43.029 --> 01:18:44.989
that was gonna give him a huge promotion and

01:18:44.989 --> 01:18:47.250
stuff like no that was good they still don't

01:18:47.250 --> 01:18:48.829
understand understand the importance of attending

01:18:48.829 --> 01:18:50.810
a meeting. But that's also how much this movie

01:18:50.810 --> 01:18:52.609
probably hates corporate, I guess, because they're

01:18:52.609 --> 01:18:54.670
really consoling themselves about his death just

01:18:54.670 --> 01:18:56.630
by saying death is better than being at that

01:18:56.630 --> 01:18:59.649
work meeting. For him, speaking for him. Bunny

01:18:59.649 --> 01:19:02.350
has huge younger brother energy. Yeah. It's like

01:19:02.350 --> 01:19:05.810
workaholics. Definitely. I just think about it,

01:19:05.829 --> 01:19:07.829
the show. Yeah. It's like workaholics. Yeah,

01:19:07.829 --> 01:19:10.430
they took that. There's a bunch of idiots at

01:19:10.430 --> 01:19:14.729
an office job. Anyway. Regional heat check. Kili,

01:19:14.810 --> 01:19:17.199
I've never been to Goa. I've been to Goa, but

01:19:17.199 --> 01:19:19.260
I haven't partied hard, that hard, though, to

01:19:19.260 --> 01:19:21.199
know, like, how the party is. You gotta combine

01:19:21.199 --> 01:19:23.739
your, so you combine coping on with your knowledge

01:19:23.739 --> 01:19:26.819
of Goa. I think it is kind of accurate, like,

01:19:26.859 --> 01:19:29.880
you know, going on the off island to have a party,

01:19:29.939 --> 01:19:31.819
like, which will, like, stay, last for, like,

01:19:31.819 --> 01:19:34.020
three nights, and then the... there won't be

01:19:34.020 --> 01:19:37.939
any vessel, any like ferry to the mainland for

01:19:37.939 --> 01:19:41.159
three, 72 hours. That was like huge. And not

01:19:41.159 --> 01:19:43.300
a ton of Indians, a lot of white people. Oh yeah.

01:19:43.340 --> 01:19:48.180
It really reminds me of Gopang. And it, I, when

01:19:48.180 --> 01:19:50.899
I watched that underground rave scene, it really

01:19:50.899 --> 01:19:53.960
does remind me of this. particular party on the

01:19:53.960 --> 01:19:56.800
island it's very similar like eden island eden

01:19:56.800 --> 01:19:59.659
yeah it reminds me of eden it's like uh it's

01:19:59.659 --> 01:20:02.500
it's in a secluded smaller island people are

01:20:02.500 --> 01:20:05.680
just getting like all high dancing all night

01:20:05.680 --> 01:20:08.939
all out to the morning out to the sunrise it's

01:20:08.939 --> 01:20:11.779
very similar i like how you can go to eden it's

01:20:11.779 --> 01:20:14.220
either you hike and go and or you can like take

01:20:14.220 --> 01:20:16.539
a boat and go to the it's a beach like kopangan

01:20:16.539 --> 01:20:20.239
eden is a beach my my colleague from work she

01:20:20.239 --> 01:20:24.880
went to aiden very recently and she said that

01:20:24.880 --> 01:20:28.779
before she got on the boat the guy that was tending

01:20:28.779 --> 01:20:31.680
the boat said that the boat before them fucking

01:20:31.680 --> 01:20:34.979
capsized and everyone fucking died what the fuck

01:20:34.979 --> 01:20:37.199
yeah it literally happened you don't hear about

01:20:37.199 --> 01:20:39.420
this on the news i don't know but like it literally

01:20:39.420 --> 01:20:41.680
said they capsized she said and she said she

01:20:41.680 --> 01:20:43.880
really swore by it that people actually died

01:20:43.880 --> 01:20:46.109
that day yeah you see because you don't hike

01:20:46.109 --> 01:20:47.890
there at night you only take a boat at night

01:20:47.890 --> 01:20:49.449
and that's usually when people go when they want

01:20:49.449 --> 01:20:51.310
an after party because that will stay till the

01:20:51.310 --> 01:20:53.970
morning and yeah i've heard so many times people

01:20:53.970 --> 01:20:56.270
saying that like oh we went it was like such

01:20:56.270 --> 01:20:58.390
a bad weather or like something happened this

01:20:58.390 --> 01:21:00.869
happened why don't they wear life jackets but

01:21:00.869 --> 01:21:03.029
we didn't you you do wear life jackets i wore

01:21:03.029 --> 01:21:05.729
life jackets but the trip to that secluded island

01:21:05.729 --> 01:21:09.699
it gets really rocky like my There was a girl

01:21:09.699 --> 01:21:12.640
I was seeing in the past and she actually talked

01:21:12.640 --> 01:21:15.159
to me about her experience to Eden. And it's

01:21:15.159 --> 01:21:17.119
actually, it was very, she said she thought she

01:21:17.119 --> 01:21:18.880
was going to die. Cause like the boat was just

01:21:18.880 --> 01:21:21.640
like rocking back and forth really widely. So

01:21:21.640 --> 01:21:23.680
it does happen. It's like pleasure Island with

01:21:23.680 --> 01:21:26.920
Pinocchio instead of turning into asses or doggies,

01:21:26.920 --> 01:21:34.779
they're zombies. Sexy. Yeah, it's more sexy than

01:21:34.779 --> 01:21:37.020
Pinocchio. I wasn't turned on by the donkeys

01:21:37.020 --> 01:21:40.319
either. So the movie tells you the moral. Say

01:21:40.319 --> 01:21:43.279
no to drugs. Say no to drugs. Except weed. Here's

01:21:43.279 --> 01:21:46.420
a big song about weed. Do weed. Weed's cool.

01:21:46.560 --> 01:21:48.520
Weed's from the ground. Importantly, weed is

01:21:48.520 --> 01:21:50.960
from this country and we're nationalistic and

01:21:50.960 --> 01:21:52.819
we don't allow outside drugs. Oh my goodness.

01:21:53.560 --> 01:21:56.789
It's very explicit, guys. Well, I give this movie

01:21:56.789 --> 01:21:59.369
a 5 out of 5. You said this was the best film

01:21:59.369 --> 01:22:01.189
you've seen. I think this was one of the best

01:22:01.189 --> 01:22:02.930
movies we've watched for the podcast. It was

01:22:02.930 --> 01:22:05.630
such an easy watch. It was funny. I was on the

01:22:05.630 --> 01:22:07.149
edge of my seat the whole time with all those

01:22:07.149 --> 01:22:09.550
zombie chase scenes. Watch it while you're high.

01:22:09.670 --> 01:22:12.069
It will enhance the experience. I mean, the characters

01:22:12.069 --> 01:22:13.869
are high throughout the film, so you might as

01:22:13.869 --> 01:22:16.489
well get on their level. It's an hour and 40

01:22:16.489 --> 01:22:20.430
minutes. One of the shortest Indian movies. It's

01:22:20.430 --> 01:22:22.609
great. Highly recommend. It's an easy watch.

01:22:22.930 --> 01:22:24.630
I was really punching the air because I feel

01:22:24.630 --> 01:22:27.340
like... During graduation, we were watching a

01:22:27.340 --> 01:22:29.020
lot of these kinds of movies like Zombieland

01:22:29.020 --> 01:22:31.180
and Shot of the Dead and stuff. And I feel like,

01:22:31.199 --> 01:22:33.760
oh man, if my friends were more accepting of

01:22:33.760 --> 01:22:35.859
other cultures, I think this movie would have

01:22:35.859 --> 01:22:38.619
been on the list, man. For sure. It's such a

01:22:38.619 --> 01:22:41.939
great, such a fun film to watch. It's super fun.

01:22:42.000 --> 01:22:43.880
It's not that corny. The special effects are

01:22:43.880 --> 01:22:46.399
great. It's filmed well. It doesn't look like

01:22:46.399 --> 01:22:48.619
it's cheaply made besides that one After Effects

01:22:48.619 --> 01:22:51.779
explosion. It's done very well. And it holds

01:22:51.779 --> 01:22:53.779
up like any Western movie. I really liked it.

01:22:54.140 --> 01:22:55.760
Kelly, what do you think of it? Because you watched

01:22:55.760 --> 01:22:58.159
this film before and you recommended it. Yeah,

01:22:58.220 --> 01:23:01.239
but I remember not being such fond of this film.

01:23:01.319 --> 01:23:03.840
Maybe like I was not into zombie. Like I didn't

01:23:03.840 --> 01:23:05.819
watch Shaun of the Dead at that point. Like I

01:23:05.819 --> 01:23:07.859
didn't watch any proper zombie films, like even

01:23:07.859 --> 01:23:11.239
comedy or like the old school zombie. Didn't

01:23:11.239 --> 01:23:13.659
watch much. So for me, maybe like it was kind

01:23:13.659 --> 01:23:17.359
of a whack because in my head, zombies like are.

01:23:17.949 --> 01:23:22.510
people like this supernatural done by virus or

01:23:22.510 --> 01:23:24.630
something and then like suddenly drugs and i

01:23:24.630 --> 01:23:27.510
was like oh it's preaching too hard about bad

01:23:27.510 --> 01:23:30.170
about drugs but like later when i saw more zombie

01:23:30.170 --> 01:23:32.869
films and saw how diverse zombies are and like

01:23:32.869 --> 01:23:35.949
the culture of zombie then i i think now when

01:23:35.949 --> 01:23:38.550
i watched i really loved it i also think it's

01:23:38.550 --> 01:23:40.670
because you came to thailand and became a degenerate
