No, is he angry? I feel like he's just like he's
yeah, I guess he's not really angry. He's just
like happy and a little He's really intense.
I guess is a better word. He's just illusionist,
but yeah Yeah, um Before we were rudely interrupted
um I was saying oh The only other girl's name
I know is Candy. Vanessa Ann Hudgens name is
Candy in it. Vanessa Ann. And look it up. I swear
it is. No, I mean, I think that is her name,
but I don't think anyone calls her that. I've
only ever called her that. I mean, that doesn't
surprise me, but I'm just saying you might be
the only one. Like sometimes I don't even say
her name full out because I, I know that I say
the middle name, but like I think. I just think
that's what she goes by. So you know that it's
different, because you just want to be different.
I just like I'm not fully confident in it, you
know? But I feel that this is a safe space for
me to say it. Austin, can you look up if this
bitch's name is Ann, middle name? No, I do think
it is Abby. It is. Yes. Okay. Okay, I did look
it up. So it's Candy, Faith, Britt. Yeah, Britt.
That's Ashlee from Caughty, right? Caughty. Mm
-hmm. I... I don't know. They all just kind of
have stripper names. Yeah. Oh, for sure. So...
Who do I... Yeah, I'm either like... I feel like
I'm Faith. I think that would probably be the
best... Right. Yeah. Yeah. Like, I'm, you know,
I'm probably pretty crazy, but I don't... would
never put myself in that situation. No. And you'd
be smart enough to take yourself out of the situation.
Right. far before any of that happens. Yeah.
Should we maybe say what we're doing? Yeah, yeah.
I mean, maybe we should start with, I'm alien.
And I'm faith. And this is Sprank. Spring break
forever. It's different here. We need to talk
about that, too. Oh, absolutely. Yeah, I've drawn
it that down a couple of times. But no, for real,
I'm Laurel. And I'm Abby. And this is... a bit
niche. Sorry, I did it again. You did it again,
didn't you? I did it again. I did it again. Austin,
Austin. Oh, actually, no, we're gonna, I'm gonna
take us on a little segue. So first, Austin,
were you listening or were you in the shower
the last time when Laurel and I were doing that?
And we figured out that both of us are trying
to match what the other one says visually, but
are videos are delayed. We're not doing it in
the natural cadence that we do it, so we're automatically
off because we're both trying to match each other
on a video feed that is out of sync. I mean,
he does edit the episode, so I think he did that.
I edit each episode, so I listen to each episode
and what you say in each episode. Right. I know
that you know we're off, but why didn't you tell
us that that's what we're doing? Because it wasn't
until I said something to Laurel because her
mouth was moving like This pace that I was like
wait, I'm doing that too That causes problems
because neither of us really realized it I never
I guess I thought that you guys knew that Or
that you would have figured that out or that
you knew that you that's what you were doing.
No, no, we don't get paid for thinking Too bad
you don't get paid for that. You both were like
dragging it out. Yeah. We're trying to match.
You're like, oh no, that's supernatural. We're
both going to hit it. That's what you thought.
We're trying to match. Up until last episode.
And you thought the best way to match was to
say it different every single time. Yes. Correct.
Yes. You didn't correct us, so what are we supposed
to do? We thought we were doing it wrong. You're
the producer! Whatever, bro. Producer and audio.
Happy Mother's Day, by the way. Oh yeah, Happy
Mother's Day to all the mamas down there. The
mamas. The mamas. Alright, maybe we should talk
about what movie we're doing, eh? We're doing
the cinematic masterpiece slash Abomination slash
cult classic that is Spring Breakers For those
on listening on audio only if you've noticed
I have a bit of a lisp today It's because I am
I don't want to say embodying because I don't
want to be him. Don't want to have that energy,
yeah. Yeah, but I'm portraying the character
of alien. So, um, I've got some grills in today.
Yeah, I was like, are you leaving those in the
whole time or no? No, I'm gonna leave them in
for a little bit until they really bother me.
Yeah, I couldn't imagine them not bothering me
instantaneously. I don't know, now they're kind
of growing on me. Yeah, I love that for you.
You ever thought about a tooth gem? I feel like
you kind of might have wanted a tooth gem at
one point. And I mean that in the nicest way
you can. No, you don't. You mean that in the
most disrespectful way possible. And you're right.
There was a time in my life when I saw it and
I thought, that's cute. And then I thought, what
the hell am I going to do with a tooth gem? Like
can you imagine? I can. I really can't imagine.
Should we get Tooth Gems when you're out here
next week? But we should get them on like our
molar so no one can see them. No one can see
them, just us. Or like down on like a really
inconspicuous one. Just like this front lower
front. Lower front Tooth Gems. on our like permanent
retainers yeah you got one of them too yeah i
do nice bottom baby maybe we shouldn't be doing
that to camera no we shouldn't but it's fitting
for the movie yes it is okay i guess one thing
i wanted to like talk about just to get started
like the overarching vibe of things. I guess
you can tell me if you want to talk about this
or we just give a rundown of the plot first,
but I need to know about like your party experience,
your college spring break experience. Like, yeah,
I did want to talk about this on real life versus
what this is. I do too. Very much so. Um, let's
give it quick synopses. Let's do that. And then
let's get into it, because I think that'll help
us juxtapose, if you will. Yeah. Whose turn is
it? I don't know. We definitely lost that a little
bit. But unless you want me to do more details,
I can do it in... Well, I have, what did I write?
Four sentences. All right, do it. No, I'll do
it in 30 seconds. Okay, Austin, can you go ahead
and cue up that? Sprang, I just say sprang. I
mean, for 30 seconds. And honestly, that would
be a very valid synopsis of the plot. All right,
here we go. 30 seconds. Ready? Three, two, one.
So Spring Breakers is about girls who rob in
order to go to Florida. Super niche experience.
It's four college girls. One of them loves the
church They all find themselves going to Florida
for spring break where they find themselves through
drugs alcohol and scootering in Florida They
get into some trouble. They go to jail. They
get out of jail by Laurel and things to hit the
fan guns That was pretty good that was pretty
good I think I gotta take these out. I support
that decision. These. Not tinfoil. Those are
real. She ordered those. Had them custom made
for this. That's the dedication. We didn't just
pick this movie on Wednesday. Watch it Thursday,
record Friday. Never. That round here partner.
We move fast around here, baby. Down here in
Florida, it's spraying bright. In Florida, spraying
bright. Yeah, so, you know, in a nutshell, it
is just a fever dream of a movie and the most
wild escalation of events that could possibly
happen on a spring break, perhaps. But yeah,
then let's back up a little bit and talk about,
like, all the college partying slash... Spring
break experiences. I really want to know like
did you ever go on a spring break trip to like
a beach or anything? Did you do a crazy spring
break? Okay, so no The only like friend spring
break trip we took was our senior year and we
went to Nashville and like we obviously drank
and like partied and stuff like that but like
altogether obviously it was nothing like this
and When I say nothing like this, spoil alert,
a lot of people die in this movie. There is guns,
there are so many drugs, there's obviously jail,
so I'm not even counting all of that. Like, yeah,
do like the first half hour of the movie. Was
it anything like that? That's like crazy screen
breaker. Yeah, right. Like girls don't want to
make that caveat because I hope to God there
wasn't any of that. So first half of the movie,
no, nothing like that. Um, it was obviously just
like our friend group and we went to Nashville
So like it wasn't like a beach party all of that
whatever The only other time I went anywhere
I went like during college I feel like was Florida
with my family and don't think it was during
like spring break time even so Yeah, nothing
like this I One of the things I wrote down was
like titties right away in your face in your
face and like for me not even spring break wise
but like and Maybe it was different for you given
that you had more of a larger fraternity sorority
scene because that's what in my head I imagine
But like there was never parties in college in
basements of houses in backyards where like bitches
just had their shirts off like 20 Women with
the shirts off titties around men pouring beer
on their chest like that was just not happening
And I need to know if that was anyone's actual
experience like because that to me is insane
like La Crosse is a known party school in Wisconsin
Wisconsin itself is known for fucking drinking
and shit. So like Who's doing that? No Yeah,
no like on the regular kind of every weekend
or whatever parties that I went to both at my
school like so I would I didn't like go I wasn't
super crazy in college or anything but when I
went out I would go like at CSU my school or
I would go to Boulder and those were like the
more kind of traditional frat parties or I would
go to Wisconsin because that's where the person
I was dating at the time was and though like
CU and Wisconsin they were the more kind of like
traditional frat atmosphere and those were like
probably the more crazy parties I went to but
in no world were people doing that like the craziest
thing people would do there was like they I don't
I think the frat that we were at at Wisconsin.
They just like shaved some guy's head out in
the lawn. Yeah. And like that was it. You know,
like, right? Girls were very like protective
of each other and of themselves. I just can't
imagine. No. That happening. But when I saw this
movie for the first time, like in twenty 14 or
whenever I was way too young to be watching this
but I became weirdly obsessed with it too and
I just assumed this is what college was like
and I assume that this is what spring break was
like which like Lowkey then became triggering
for me in college because I sorry were you done
with your stories too? I was okay. Done Done
So I'm done Throughout college I did not go on
any like crazy or really any spring break trips
until my senior year were me and my three roommates
we went to San Diego where one of my roommates
was from and it was like a very fun like very
chill girls trip like we went out in downtown
San Diego one night but it was like very adults
I guess or you know it's just like very dignified
compared to what this this was yeah but The reason
why like the idea of spring break in this movie
was kind of triggering for me was, and I don't
know, maybe we can cut this Austin. But because
in the long distance our relationship that I
was in all throughout college, he would go on
beach spring breaks every single year and I was
never invited. Interesting. Yeah. Yeah. And sometimes
it was because like our spring breaks didn't
line up but then there are other times that it
didn't like I just wasn't invited and it was
him and all his frat bros and I just assumed
that this was what was happening that he was
on the beach and there were just titties everywhere
and like it made me so insecure and yeah yeah
so in my mind I just assumed that this was what
was happening and I was tortured about it but
like I mean Come on, who's really throwing their
titties in? Around them. Yeah, come on. No, come
on. Yeah, they weren't seeing any titties. No,
no. So no, I did not. And the beach with them.
They were on a separate part of the beach. Yeah,
like, yeah. I don't know, burying each other
in the sand or some shit. Yeah, way too sunburned.
So yeah. And it just feels like the whole thing
where it's like the entire entire place is like
only college kids in the pool and just like It
just is it's just insane. It it seems insane
and you know, I just thought of a person to ask
maybe would be Tanner, because no one else in
my life probably got close to this. And I think
his was like maybe even a little later in life,
but he has been to all inclusives that are like
kind of party all -inclusives with his guy friends.
But still, I just think if you're at an all -inclusive
in Mexico and you're a 23 -year -old woman, why
are your titties out? I just feel like they probably
wouldn't be, right? No. Especially if you're
around a bunch of people, especially men that
you do not know. Yeah. i just yeah that was like
my overarching thing was like was this actually
a reality for people like i'm so confused and
i know we're gonna go into behind the scenes
after or a little later but one of the things
we did read about is how the fucking director
whatever guy he like Made this for a multitude
of reasons, but one of them was because like
he never went on this type of spring break And
he wanted to create that for himself. So this
was his way of going that's weird I just I kept
thinking this time around watching it because
it's probably the first time I've watched it
in at least 10 years where I was just like okay
this is just some sick dude living out playing
out his fantasies and like this is probably what
every 16 year old guy thought that like the best
spring break would be like oh if you go down
to like Florida, like the girls, they're, they're
loose, man. The beard you comb off some titties.
There's titties everywhere. Like you're going
to get some purse. It sounds like Donald Trump.
It's probably what he thinks spring break was
like. It's what is like on the island was like,
that's what I'm saying. Alien was on the island.
We have, we need to be tracking that list. We've
lost that slightly, but. Alien was for sure.
Alien made that his own little Epstein Island.
It was Alien Island with those four women. He
really did. He really did. From the jump. Yeah,
especially like the way he acts with faith. Disgusting.
Disgusting. And scene. Okay, so as we're talking
about how he was extra creepy. Oh, that's gonna
fit naturally into our editing. You can't just
like play, you can't yes and with me. Our improv
is gonna be shit. Come on, our improv is amazing.
Sometimes it's just funny because I also think
I was the one saying what you were saying now.
Oh, and I love an improv, but I'm also thinking
about the editing and given that it's not improv.
I know how Austin feels about our transitions,
and I know he doesn't like that one. But since
when do we do things for the approval of a man?
I only do things for alien. Look at my shit.
Where is alien? This is also still not going
to be... Eggers. What's up, girl? Oh, okay. Well,
we had to. I don't care if there's no continuity.
And I don't either. I think what you do here,
Austin, is you put a record scratch before that,
and then this is what happens. That's what we're
going to start doing around here. And you're
going to say, speaking of alien. And then I'll,
yeah, do that. And then I'll, speaking of alien.
Austin leave all of that in okay, but one of
the things when you mentioned about like him
being obviously really creepy and Well the vibe
being creepy, but mainly about like the weirdo
energy from also like the director and why he
made the film to He one thing we found out in
our behind the scenes is that This director didn't
tell Selena Gomez about the scene in which James
Franco is like extremely weird with her touching
her face like... Telling her he okay. I'll do
it. Well, I was like I don't even know how you
describe what he's he was doing So this is a
scene wherein it's after alien bails out the
girls after they get arrested Yeah, and against
like Selena Gomez's character faith. She's like
hey guys. We really don't know this guy We should
not go with him and they're all like it's fine.
It's fun like they're just gonna we're gonna
hang out with their friends And they get to this
pool hall with all these men that they don't
know. They're literally the only women there.
And Faith feels very uncomfortable. And Alien
pulls her aside. And he's like, what's wrong?
What's wrong? She's like, I want to go home.
And he starts cupping her face. He's like, why
you got to go home? And he's like, I love you
so dang much. I really like you. And I want you
to know that if you leave, your friends are staying
with me but I'm gonna be thinking about you and
I'm with them. And it's just like the most disgusting
thing ever and he's like literally wiping her
tears as he's saying this and it's very traumatizing
and to know that Selena didn't know that he was
gonna be like this like that's so disgusting
and knowing that like James Franco is notoriously
a creep and like kind of a shit guy like you
know that he loved this role. Oh absolutely.
made for him. Yeah, I forgot which one of the
brothers was like the eh one. Maybe they're both
eh. Okay. I think David's all right. Okay, yeah,
I mean he did fantastic at this then because
what the fuck. Yeah, just a gross scene. Yeah,
it's so disgusting. She didn't even know about
it. No, she's crazy. So then her emotions were
raw during it. Like It's like she could have
acted that, like you could have given her heads
up. She's an actor, that's her job. Yeah, she
should be able to channel those emotions while
like knowing what she's going to be in for. Yeah.
Ugh. Ugh. Disgusting. Um, yeah. Yeah, that kind
of goes back to just like the overall vibes of
the film too. Yeah. Outside of it just being
like the most like 2013 film there could ever
be. As well like the music the skrillex of it
all like oh my gosh I Literally said like I have
never done acid but this song will truly make
you feel like you have done asses Yes, yes after
I've never I haven't heard it in years and I
am And it like it gets you going gets you going
yeah, yeah, and The director said like he wanted
the movie to feel like viewing it you're on drugs
and hit the nail on that Ring that bell baby.
You got it. Mm -hmm. Mm -hmm among other feelings
that it brought Yeah, wait, what are you feelings?
I also kind of forgot about the fact that like
damn near the hole for sure 15 minutes and I'm
not gonna try to over exaggerate here, but like
a very long part of the start of the movie is
all just kind of like cinematic shots of, you
know, the girls of party scenes with the Skrillex
in the background. Yeah, with titties. With like,
yeah, the titties of course, then like flashes
to the church scene because for some reason they
made Selena Gomez or Faith, Faith, they made
her also believe in Jesus at a big churchgoer,
which in my opinion, like look, it's very heavy
handed, right? Like she is the only one that
has like some kind of moral compass. She's been
like pulled away by like the girls that are like
the devil. And you know, she's like that little
modicum of faith throughout. And then when she
leaves, when faith goes out the window, everything
goes to shit. And it's like, okay dude, like
your symbolism is a little much. Oh yeah. Too
much for me. It's a lot. It's a lot. But yeah,
I just forgot that the whole first part was yeah,
all of that, like, yeah. This shot of someone
snorting cocaine. This shot of a bong rip. This
shot of the church choir singing. Like, it's
like, what is going on? Yeah, I do wanna, oh
my God, this just popped into my head too. And
sorry, this might be a little bit of a diversion.
But when they go to the like frat party or house
party when they're at school still, did you notice
how many baby dolls are in that scene? Yes. They're
like using a baby doll for a bowl. Yes, yeah.
Like using one as a bowl or using one as a beer
bong. There's baby dolls like taped onto the
walls. Yeah. That's concerning. Yeah, I kind
of forgot about that part too, which I feel like
also, oh, and then the man with like the full
uncooked turkey on his head when he's standing
on the porch. What a waste of me. Yes. So like,
that's another part of where I was just like,
what parties were like this? I just don't get
how they were crazy in that way. They just weren't.
I mean, maybe they were somewhere, I don't know,
but it just seems like. I need to know. Yeah,
I do need to know, but it's just this It's so
clear that this whole movie was made, one was
written by a man. Because the lines in here,
like what was one that really just got me, I
have multiple. Yeah, right after they robbed
the diner and they're like rolling around in
the money. I want you to say it. I want you to
say it. No, you say it. I want you to say it.
When Vanessa she takes the money and she goes
seeing all this money makes my Seeing all this
money makes my pussy wet It is truly bringing
us back to our roots People we started with Jennifer's
body and here we are like yeah reminded me in
a lot of ways of some of the lines that Came
from that where like yeah, it's giving like earlier
2000 sexiness, but in 2013 while also having
ex Disney stars in it like another thing I wrote
down was Right from the jump damn near the first
line that was spoken was when they were in class
Candy and Brit I think and One of them writes
and does like a heart And then in the middle
it says, I want penis and shows it to the other
girl. And then the other one like draws a dick
and writes spring break bitches in it. And it's
like literally giving this paper dick head in
this third scene of the movie. In the middle
of a lecture hall, like during class. Like what
girls are doing. And I legit thought I was scared
that girls in college would be like this. Yeah.
I was like, if they're really like this, I'm
not going to survive. Yeah. I just like, I don't
know how any of them truly kept a straight face,
including now that you give a little context
to Mr. James Franco, like being a creep already,
he probably thrived in this role. But like every
one of his lines, I don't know how there would,
how you wouldn't laugh. Like that's the thing.
That's the thing. Like. They're just all so ridiculous.
Yeah. And I fear that the director really thought
that he was like doing something and saying something
important with this movie because it's like there
are aspects of it that are like quite artsy and
the way it's shot. But like it's like, bro, you
didn't like you wrote these lines unironically.
How? Yeah. It's insanity to me. And I think like
I love I love like the cringy aspects and stuff
like that like obviously those are the things
I write down and then I love like all of his
lines Came wrangled lines. That's just like kills
me. Yeah, I do eat it up. Well, yes, but But
ironically like not from a camp perspective.
Yeah, yeah, because it's like oh he really ate
with this one. It's yes Exactly, like it's just
it's like in a making fun of way like of how
yeah ridiculous it is and it almost feels like
it's like, you know campy and like a cult classic
but he had the intention of Like making it something
Not like real yeah, and it just like should have
been a little campy little fun thing that had
insane lines in it and a fucking alien with grills.
Oh my god. Well, do a gangsta and shit. I was
the only white kid in my neighborhood. We can
tell. We can tell, alien. And oh my god, when
you said, how do they even film this, keeping
a straight face? I was thinking while watching
this, especially before things get ridiculously
crazy, but when it's more just the spring breakers
party stuff, it would be so hard to film this
like sober just because of like the overstimulation
of it all too. Like the sheer amount of people
packed into like the scene where they're at like
a hotel party and it's just like wall -to -wall
people and like just disgusting. I can't imagine
I mean obviously like you're in a closed set
environment although I did see in behind the
scenes that they filmed this like at Daytona
Beach with Real Spring Breakers. So I'm sure
there was some weird shit going on. And I just
can't imagine like being in this environment
with all these people and like feeling trapped
and claustrophobic and yeah. And being a hundred
percent sober the whole time. Right. Yeah. I
guess like I was also thinking of like, yeah.
The first thing I thought was how hot and sweaty
I would get but another thing that gives it like
early 2000s slash 2013 is they are never in clothes.
No, and it's always never have clothes always
neon. Yeah, I'm so sad. I didn't have have the
neon and they're always whispering. So like they're
not using a lot of energies. They're also 90
pounds. So they're so tiny. Yeah, which also
like gives makes their yes their college kids
but it gives it's just like pedo vibes because
very James Franco yes I guess they're all like
legal adults but he's like older than them and
is creepy as hell and they look so young yeah
well and he says to faith he's like you look
like you're about like 15 years old and like
you're my favorite yeah he literally says you
look 15 but you're really pretty And just like
it's so uncomfortable watching it to seeing how
progressively uncomfortable she gets Yeah, and
the fact that like she has no clothes and it's
just like Yeah Just it does get like it gets
at least in my opinion it gets Considerably more
fun to watch after Selena leaves 110 % yeah because
it's like okay now it's just like that was a
little too real because like we've all been in
situations yeah that we like got to get out of
and like feel very uncomfortable and whatever
yeah so once she left and it's like okay now
everyone's just batshit crazy and we could just
like go off and like honestly I don't even give
a fuck what happens to these girls because they're
fucking Yeah they're insane and they're like
fully into like going and robbing and killing
people and whatever like that's fine now we can
just go fully like cinematic universe whatever
yeah just go full florida but you know full florida
and they went full florida they went ridiculously
florida yeah um hmm one thing i will say Yeah,
couple things. Is it was there any part of you
that when they really started Selena left and
they really started getting Florida on you? Guns
in this capacity. That's cool. Robin drugs in
the movie setting. That's cool. But I'm talking
about was there any part of you that was like,
this is a little hot. Why do you think I watched
it so much? because I was slightly nervous about
that. About the way that you felt because you
thought it was hot? No, no, no. Just if you were
gonna feel the same because we had just made
a few comments about like the three way specifically
and all of that stuff. And like you have the
scene of, you know, we were making fun of which
it is cringey as fuck where like he's on the
bed, there's money everywhere. Like one of the
first scenes that they go back to his house,
and they're just like rolling around on the money
and stuff, and then they like take guns. They
make him blow the guns. And they literally make
him blow the gun, and he's like, I just suck
both your dicks. And he's like, I just fell in
love with you. Yes, and they're doing all that.
We had just kind of made fun of it a little bit
already, and I was like, hmm, but like, you know.
It's still kind of hot. Yeah. No, and I mean,
this was the first piece of media. that I consumed
at that young age that was even remotely like
this. Ah, I see. Mm -hmm. Probably like the most
nudity I had seen in a film at this point, too.
Yeah. Oh, for sure. So it felt very naughty watching
it. Yeah. And that's why I think I watched it
so much, too. Makes sense. For me, I remember
watching it in theaters. What? Who let you go
to this in theaters? Thank you. Thank you. I
don't know enough to go to an R rated movie.
I know that's what I was like the rating had
to be are right at least had to be and see 17
maybe and it was in 2013. Mm -hmm. So you would
have been like 16 at most right? So like I guess
yeah, like technically maybe give whatever the
time frame was I could have driven myself I could
have seen you and Lily go see this and like yeah,
so honestly me and Amy were the big moviegoers
and she like we would see We saw everything like
I just I go back to like seeing 50 shades of
gray and like telling my parents I was going
to see that like that's crazy Yeah, we were in
high school when that yeah like So like it it
doesn't surprise me that I also saw this but
I know that Amy and I saw it there and like maybe
we've watched it one time Outside of that, but
like it's been since seeing it in theaters. Oh
for real again I don't remember shit about movies
ever, but I also did not remember like the sexiness
of it like yeah, I Didn't remember that any of
that happened. Yeah. Yeah, well and now that
you mention it too like it's funny because I
feel like the threesome scene, which is a threesome
between Alien, Britt, and Candy. And they're
mostly in the pool. It's probably the least sexy
scene in the movie somehow. And I forgot about...
There's a part of the scene where I guess it's
technically the scene after they're out of the
pool. and aliens sitting on the couch and both
the girls are sucking his nipples. What's that
about? What's that about? Who's that fun for?
Who's that for? James Franco. I guess, but like
co -producer. It must, I truly, truly, it's giving,
it's giving like Sam Levin. Well, okay. Do you
watch, do you watch Euphoria? Yes, but I haven't
watched this most recent season, but I will now
that I have your HBO login. You're welcome. Yeah,
but you know one of the big critiques about euphoria
is that Sam Levinson the creator is just playing
out his weird kind of like rapey fantasies and
kinks and it's giving that same energy but it's
also the same kind of euphoria like aesthetic
and energy where you can't look away and you're
weirdly drawn to it because of like all of the
other aspects of it too. Oh yeah. Okay. One question
I had because we've been talking a lot about
like the producers the executives the all that
stuff Yeah, this is taking us way back to literally
the beginning of it which first the intro credits
were like way too ridiculously long. I thought
I was being pranked but This is my first thing
I wrote down a 24 question mark. I've been seeing
a lot of that Do you know what that is? Yes,
and I'm sorry. I'm sorry for the reaction. Sometimes
I forget that you're like not a movie person
So when you ask me these questions, is that a
dumb thing? No, it's not a dumb question for
you For you As a non -moo, you're a little stupid
idiot. Oh, you're so cute. You don't know what
824 is? No, it's as a not movie person. It's
not a stupid question. 824 is a is a movie studio
production studio that kind of, you know, got
it's right. Got to start with the more like kind
of indie offbeat, like aesthetic kind of edgier
films like this. Like I'm trying to think, no,
I'm not even going to name off movies because
you're not going to know them. But I've been
seeing a 24 a lot like social media not yeah
No, and it's it's become like it's got to start
more of like kind of the indie edgy and it still
kind of is but it's really a big kind of studio
now Yeah So like a lot of very popular movies
are a 24 so you'll see it more and more with
recent films The more you know yeah, but like
with for me and Max who are you know more regular
movie watchers yes like whenever we put it on
we saw that we're like oh no way like didn't
know it was an a -24 and and you're like what
the what the fuck a -24 what does that mean I
mean what's better than 24 25 I totally forgot
about this and I'm sorry I'm doing kind of a
hard pivot right now but it us all over town
Fantastic. When we were speaking about them never
wearing clothes, them being ridiculous, whatever.
Okay, them being in court in bikinis is insane.
No, because I lost my mind. There was multiple,
that's another thing about this being like campy
and you need to just lean into that. There were
so many times where I actually laughed out loud
sitting alone in my room and that was one of
them where they were in court. They're before
a judge in their bikinis. No counsel, no representation
at all. And why were they on one side and those
drug twins were on the other? Okay, so I think
they were actually in like the The gallery gallery.
I think they were up front too. It does look
like that, but I think it's because they're sitting
in the front row like waiting for when their
case gets called. Yeah, okay, okay. And I hate
those twins. I do want to say that. They've always
scared the shit out of me. They're so fucking
weird. They're creepy. They're just kind of in
the background. Like they're not even like cool
and funny. No, they're just like weird. And then
they give the little gunshot fucking signal to
our guy. alien, and that's how they get wrapped
up with him. So gross. So gross. I also love
that the judge was like, either you pay the fine
or two more nights in jail. It's like, what is
this? It's Florida. Florida. It's Florida. It
literally sounds like a Florida headline, you
know? I do also feel that it's important that
we address the Gucci main of it all. Gucci Mane
of it all. Absolutely. Did you remember that
it was Gucci Mane? No. I was thrown for a loop.
Yeah. The man can't act. I was gonna say, but
at the sit, so I love how Gucci gives us absolutely
nothing. And somehow it's perfect. I love the
scene where like He's having sex with this woman.
And he's like, we're doing emotes on my dick.
And then like they come in and spoiler alert,
they come in while he's in the hot, weird hot
tub in the bathroom, putting guns at him. And
he's just like, oh, he doesn't even say anything.
Nothing, literally nothing. Gucci, give us. any
emotion i know even during my favorite scene
of them is where they have like their first you
know run in with each other because so alien
and then gucci main which what's gucci's actual
character oh i don't find it whatever but gucci
they have like their first run in Because they
you know, they used to be best friends, but now
they're in like I guess you could say rival gangs
They don't obviously necessarily like call them
that but like, you know, they're both trying
to run the streets they say and Gucci is more
of you know, the top dog James Franco split off
from him and is trying to run shit now obviously
Gucci main does not fuck with that so like They
have a lot of conflict throughout, but the first
one is them fighting about their friendship.
And one of them is like, you used to be my best
friend. No, you did this. We were best friends.
And they're just in the bar. cuts to like the
next time we see Gucci Mane Gucci is on the couch
with his I don't know family and his son and
he's like my baby is starving my baby needs to
get fed and alien is taking food from my baby
then the next scene is Gucci Mane pulling up
on them in the drive by shooting their car out
And fucking poor, what's she gonna call it? The
fourth girl who we haven't even really mentioned.
She gets shot. It's also insane that she's the
only one that catches a bullet. They have a machine
gun and they're lighting up this car and she
gets grazed in the arm. And that's it? Insane.
Oh my god. But yeah, no, I absolutely lost it
at the scene where they're just Gucci sitting
in his house and these guys. Taking food out
of my baby's mouth. My baby's hungry hungry my
baby starving starving What? What are you doing?
Come on. Come on. Oh my god. I'm like sweating
because how funny that is. It's so good. I do
have like another thing that is just kind of
revolving the gun violence in general because
you know okay so the girl gets shot and then
finally she's like it's time for me to go home
too yeah yeah you think at that point like this
is why i couldn't even brand myself as candy
or brit because your friend has been shot and
you still are staying there stay with us like
insane but Like then I just think since we're
on the gun violence part of it Like one how did
like you said how don't people catch more bullets
when their car is getting shot up? But then also
in the like end scene where they're gonna go,
you know, they're pulling their little hit on
Gucci man and Fucking James Franco just gets
shot point blank in the head. That's my favorite
part. And they just keep going. They just keep
going. Like literally nothing even happens, which
is actually how they felt about this guy. Like
they did not give a fuck. They didn't give a
fuck. Yeah. But then it's like they continue
with their little mission, we'll call it. But
there is damn near 10 to 20 gang members in this
house. in this yard and house with a whole artillery
yes these two little college girls somehow take
every single one of them out it's insane and
not one of them gets shot not one they're literally
all of these men like so many men with guns and
walking straight at them and not a soul gets
hit and they're just like the best shots somehow
Like they are sharp shooters. They are murdering
people left and right. Literally. Like it's nothing.
And then just walk right out of that. No, drive
right out of there in his Lamborghini. Yeah.
What? I, yeah, it's insane. It's fully goes off
the rails. Yeah. But that's honestly like my
favorite part, not my favorite part, but one
of my favorite parts is like when they're walking
up to go do this whole operation and alien just
gets merked immediately. I know. He doesn't even
make it off the dock. No, not one step off the
dock. A little bit. And I mean, yeah, which like
all goes to prove that he really is a little
bitch the whole time. And it's so funny, like
the scene where they're kind of preparing to
go and do this and they keep replaying, looping
the same audio. Yes. I don't know how many times
where They're like, you scared? You scared little
bitch? And he's like, yeah, I'm a scaredy pants.
Yeah. And they play that over and over and over.
Yeah. And it's like, I understand, I guess, like
what they're trying to do. But it's like, OK,
we get it. Yeah. We get it. Oh my god, it's yeah,
this is just a wild movie like it honestly is
one thing I think I'm gonna make it the cover
photo for this video and I can send it to you
but this oh my god with the guns I was like me
you and Austin literally Okay, the pink ski masks
are so good though they go hard literally So
good. Pink ski mask with the matching swimsuits.
So good. Another look. I would be remissed before
we end this episode to not mention this. Their
outfits where they have the black sweatpants
and it says DTF on the butt and then they have
the matching one pieces and the ski masks still
they all have guns that they're holding like
truly they've never held a gun before because
I don't think they have besides the squirt guns
that they used to rob. But somehow there's very
good shots. Even though, yeah, there's fucking
sharpshooters, but when they're out on that piano,
that's on his, you know, balcony or nice balcony.
What do you call it? Yeah, we need to talk about
this. Yeah. So that is the greatest one of the
greatest forms of media I have ever seen. The
instrumental playing Britney Spears every time.
And then they're dancing with the guns and then
the montage of them. robbing people robbing spring
break it's just so good so fucking good it's
just so good I nearly cried because I was like
wow I think that's the only scene in the movie
that's like unironically good absolutely yeah
it's shot perfectly like the singing into then
like Britney's actual song the song choice itself
like the lead up to it all them like literally
then having this song in the back while they're
just them robbing a wedding is crazy. Yes, like
It's just and somehow they don't get caught.
No Don't get caught at all. Yeah, um, I do have
a few like questions about that which that reminds
me a few questions, comments and concerns. What
do you think happens to them after? Because literally
the final scene is them, they give little James
Franco a little kiss and they drive off in the
Lamborghini and then it's face to black and you
have no idea. You know, I, yeah, I think when
I've watched this in the past, I never really
even thought about it because I was just like,
what? But I was much more introspective about
it this time around and especially because the
scene right before they go and do this operation.
Candy and Britt, they call their moms. And they're
like, I just want to do better. And the lines
are so insane. They're like, I think that's really
the secret to life, being a good person. And
then they go murder like 30 people. And they're
not like quiet about it either. So I wonder,
do they go back to school, you think? had I really
like don't have any clue because also it's a
little fuzzy on like how long they're actually
in Florida on spring break like I you know like
yeah I do it's gotta be like a week Yeah, that's
how I imagine it too, but it also felt like so
long. But then they'd say like on the phone in
that phone conversation when they're calling
their mom saying they want to be better. They're
like, yeah, people are going back to school like
all this stuff. So like, you know, I don't know.
I obviously like you said I never thought about
it when I first watched this, but I thought about
it a lot because I just kept again not remembering
what happens. I was like, Does one of them died?
Both of them died? Do they go back? Do we see
that part? I couldn't remember any of it. And
I want to say that I don't think they ever get
caught. No, they definitely don't. I just, there's
no way going in these two little fucking white
girls who go to some college out of state who
came down here. They're just not going to get
caught for this. They're not going to go after
a homicide of 30 people. Because again, all the
people that they killed were like gang members.
Gang members. So not saying that their lives
don't matter. Oh, of course not. I was crazy.
But the odds that the cops are going to go find
their murderers are pretty low, right? Yes. And
that's what I was going to say too. I wasn't
going to say the part about emphasizing that
their lives matter, but I think it's important
you did just so people know where we're at. Completely
agree with what you were saying. Like, yeah,
it's they're just not going to go after people
who are just killed this. Like drug kingpins
and yeah, yeah, they're like oh the police in
Florida Yeah, you think they're gonna care. No,
they're gonna celebrate. Yeah So what I think
is that they took all the money they took all
that shit and they're back at college Yeah, yeah,
definitely Just going quickly back to the topic
of race But Um, the first thing that I thought
when they went to like the pool hall and literally
everyone else there are like black people and
Selena was like, I want to get out of here. I
was like, wow, she literally sees one black person
and she wants to go home because there's no people
of color. There's no people of color in the rest
of the movie except for like these people that
she's afraid of. And like, obviously she's in
like a bad situation regardless, but my immediate
thought was like, wow. Wow course wow face course
Jacked up for Jesus, right? Mm -hmm as her pastor
says in the beginning of the movie How cool is
that how cool is that how cool is that now? How
cool is that can I get an amen during our baptism
class? I think she said that three times how
cool is that Wow, what did they teach you by
the way? lot was taught, but Austin was quizzed
and he cheated. And I'm pretty sure that's one
of the ten commandments is to not cheat. Thou
shall not cheat. Thou shall not be an adulterer.
And he, I'm sorry, he cheated on you? In the
church? No. He's saying yes. No, no, no, no.
The person who was teaching our class Asked him
a question or asked us all a question and then
pointed at Austin and Austin gave the right answer.
I'm like, oh my god. Yes. How did you remember
that? That's crazy. Well, it's because he cheated.
How'd he cheat? He didn't actually cheat. He
used his resources. But do you want to tell it?
It's an open book test. It's fine. Right. She
just asked him a question and he thought he knew
the answer but then he was kind of looking around
and it's like in a church classroom whatever
you call that and There's like a wall and it
has a bunch of you know like the stuff about
Jesus and like the Rules and all that and one
of them was this rule she was asking about and
He looked at the damn poster and then was like
yes, it's seven the answer is seven I I have
no problem. I have no qualms. I don't either.
Yeah. Well, you're the one that studies cheating.
I'm trying to stir up some drama. What else is
new? 25 minutes that I'm a liar. That's true.
That is very true. It's called entertain it,
baby. Oh, another thing I was thinking also,
what year in school do we think they are? Oh,
I had so many questions about this, too. It's
so hard to tell I feel like if it was like senior
year They would have said that but also like
They don't get in trouble for the drinking so
they have to be over 21 You would think right?
Yeah, because the only thing the judge talks
about is like is the drugs. Yeah, so Junior year
junior senior. Yeah. Yeah. Mm -hmm interesting.
Yeah Who knows maybe it's senior year because
maybe then they just you know go back to school
and graduate and and then Run off with all their
money. They stole. Yeah, or not even go back
to that's another it could be I mean likely event.
Yeah, they probably don't care that much about
their degree They're out here murdering people.
So right. Yeah, but they're trying to do better.
So who knows? They are Yeah Another thought that
I had during this is and this movie is not very
long. It's like an hour and a half. No, thank
God But why does it feel eight hours long? Oh
my god. It feels so long. I think I actually
texted Austin and I was like, oh my god, like
I do not want to have to be watching this right
now. Like you got a terrible day at work. Like,
yes, literally. Like want to just like do nothing
and like zone out and you've got to watch spring
breakers and you've got to be locked in. And
you've got to write notes. We have to prep for
our show, literally. Oh boy. Well, do we want
to talk about some of the facts that we learned
about it? I think we should. Okay. God, this
writer and director is just a little freak, man.
Honestly, and I still can't believe that he got
two, yeah, two Disney girls to do this. I know.
Because I'm all for breaking out of your Disney.
But this was a wild way to do it. They jumped
off the deep end. Yeah. I will say, from your
Disney roles. One thing that I do notice, however,
is that Selena, Vanessa, and Ashley, none of
them have any nudity. The only one of the girls
that has any nudity is the other one. Claude.
Claude? Claude or Claude it's something like
that isn't it? Caught Caught damn near Claude
Oh So you know that you were shaking your head
at our commentary sorry go ahead Laurel Austin
you prepare your thoughts No, I want to hear
Austin as today He was just while we were talking
about how it's so crazy that they dove off the
deep end from Disney rules And then you mentioned
how they don't have any nudity And you were shaking
your head. Well, it's just like that conversation
we had about Miley Cyrus, about how crazy it
was that Miley is out here humping people on
a live stage. Wasn't that crazy? That's not crazy,
but it's insane for actors to be in a movie acting.
That's crazy. Interrated our movie. That's this
is crazier than a live performance at we're not
saying that we're not saying that we're saying
that like the entire Movie as a work of art is
a crazy project to be a part of as your first
foray into something outside of Disney however,
you can tell that their boundaries were very
strict because like Each of them obviously had
their own different boundaries based on their
roles, but it's like okay Selena obviously her
boundaries were a little bit more I don't know
solidified because she was the least crazy character
No nudity didn't show her doing really any drug
use at all except for hitting a bong once Yeah,
and then the other had any also like physical
besides him being creepy But like yeah any like
kissing or sex scenes with alien exactly So Yeah,
it's just like you can tell that they were all
trying to step out of their like roles that they
are their kind of tropes, but they still were
like, okay, but we're not getting too crazy.
Cause we want to be taken seriously. Yeah. I
also think for me, yes, I probably didn't clarify
as well as I should have that. I don't mean that
they shouldn't have done this movie. I love that
they did this movie. Like, I don't think any,
like, I don't think anyone thought that did awesome.
There's nothing. No, I'm saying that, but he's
just saying that like, in the prior episode with
the Hannah Montana episode, I was so gung -ho
about how we shouldn't limit people in that way.
So I just want to make it clear. I'm not saying
that they shouldn't have done this. I'm just
saying that there's a lot of women, especially
Disney Channel, people who grew up acting in
Disney Channel, who have spoken about their experience
of even going to just a movie that's not Disney.
It's like... People and their managers will tell
them like you are ruining your career You will
never book work again like all of this stuff
because they want them to like stay so young
and innocent for so long So it is crazy that
like, you know Selena Gomez and stuff who has
only up until this point. Maybe she did other
things I don't know actually but like was predominantly
thought of as like Disney Channel innocent roles
and this is a complete 180 from that and like
Yeah, her mom was supportive and all that stuff.
So like, I'm happy that she did it and I support
them doing it for, you know, all of them there.
Love it. But like, I actually don't know how
old they each were in this, but Selena will always
look 16 to me up until like the last two years,
always. But yeah, so that's not what I mean.
I just mean like it is like for the first couple
of projects you do post Disney Channel, like
it's a Wild one today. Yeah, definitely, but
I love that they did it. Yeah, they should be
able to and no one should question it No one
should question not even me Just historically
yeah, Disney girls aren't are not doing that.
No, they're doing drugs in real life precisely
taken with Disney Mm -hmm So yeah kind of bringing
and you mentioned it too to like kind of the
facts and behind the scenes of it all Um, it's
crazy that Selena's mom like really encouraged
her to do this specifically. Like I could see
like, you know, her mom or anyone's mom being
like, ooh, like pushing you outside of your comfort
zone, like do something a little edgy. But like
to do this specifically is a little crazy. I
could like, my mom would never. Right. No. But
God bless. I think her mom loves the director
too. Which is problem a little bit, but yeah
Yeah Who knows what else we got? We got the fact
that the director and writer he wrote the whole
thing in 10 days and a holiday in and Daytona
Beach. No Which you know what tracks? You know
talk about like really getting into your scene,
getting down to the root of it, and pulling from
the space. Yes, method writing, absolutely. Pop
-off king. Yeah. Ten days, though. I guess when
art flows, it flows. And you can't stop it. And
I think a lot of these lines, you'd be like,
yeah, that probably Came out I there's probably
very little editing. Yeah, very little self -editing
on those so make sense Just very stream of conscious
Whatever comes out comes out I Also think it's
crazy that Emma Roberts was originally supposed
to be in it. Yeah, I I can't believe that Yeah,
I I think Ashley Benson was like a really good
Oh yeah. Because it was her character that was
supposed to be Emma Roberts, and I think, sorry,
go ahead. No, I was just gonna say, I would have
figured that Emma Roberts would have maybe been
in like, I keep wanting to call her Claude, so
I'm just gonna call her Claude. I would have
thought she would have been in Claude's position
because isn't Claude you've said that Claude
is actually the director's wife or was so I just
figured it was like oh we need someone to throw
in there like yeah right but no she was always
gonna be in it I see okay yeah but apparently
Emma had creative differences so I wonder what
those were I would love to know I had has to
be the fact that she didn't want to get She didn't
want to hold Vanessa and Hudgens while James
Franco had her ride. I can tell you that's the
creative differences. Wow. That did it for her.
Yeah. I guess she didn't want to break out that
bad, but what can we say? Is Emma Roberts the
one that beat her boyfriend up? Yes. Yeah, Emma
Roberts is probably busy as well. She was busy
with domestic abuse. Yeah, and then being in
jail for one day. Yeah, bummer, bummer. Yeah,
we can move on from that. She collects little
dolls too, which is interesting. But look, at
the same time, who am I to judge? I love a trinket.
But you don't beat your boyfriend. I sure don't.
At the end of the day speaking of drugs Selena
Gomez told Entertainment Weekly in an interview
that because like There's I think the one scene
that really shows most of the main characters
like doing drugs and like snorting coke She told
them that to simulate them snorting lines, they
would snort crushed up vitamin B12. Which also
feels like incopious amounts might not be the
best for you either. And if you gotta be doing
a lot of scenes, you know. Right. I mean, yeah,
I doubt they were doing like a lot. A whole lot
of B12. They're jacked up on B12. What? I don't
even know what that would feel like. The rest
of the Movie makes sense that they would be on
so much B12 their energies were crazy. So yeah,
they were pretty crazy, especially Vanessa Yeah
Which I hadn't mentioned like the amount of like
gun symbols they do like even before they have
a gun in their hand It's like oh my god girls
like we get it like you're bad like you got to
be hard You can't get scared pretend you're in
a movie or something like it's just like okay.
We get it. We get it Yeah, your bad asses. Another
thing I saw about Selena Gomez, too, was like
she struggled a little bit with hitting the bong
because she had never smoked or done anything
like that. So they had to really walk her through
it, which I just think is so cute. And it means
that she's so perfect for that role, too, because
like... I love that scene too where she's like,
guys, I can't believe you did this. And then
they're like, it's fine. Like here, take a hit
of the bomb. Yeah. And then like they all like
cheer on after like, yeah. Yeah, I love that.
She probably felt pretty proud about it for your
life too. She probably never done that. No. Oh
my gosh. Speaking about like how ridiculous the
threesome sex scene is. Yeah. In like every sense
of the word. It's just so ridiculous and it lasts
way too long. It's a long time. It's a really
long time and Yeah, many different angles and
it's ridiculous. Yeah, but I did see also that
it was so like nerve -wracking for Vanessa Hudgens
and like I don't want to say necessarily like
traumatizing, but it's it's a weird first sex
scene to have. Oh my god. Yeah. Yeah, but It
made her want to never do another sex scene again.
I believe it. Valid. I believe it. But thanks
for doing this one. I guess. I mean, we probably
could have done without that whole 10 minute
scene quite frankly. It really was. Like I want
to know I should have done this like the ratio
to actual lines versus just cinematic party shots
and sex scenes slash gun violence. Because there's
not a whole lot of dialogue, honestly. No. 40
% dialogue, 60 % the rest. Yeah. And half the
dialogue, they're just like clipping like a 10
second, yeah, audio clip and then just looping
it. Right. And I mean, then like another 10 %
of that has to be him saying, sprang, sprang.
Sprang, sprang. So what? Yeah. Then you're down
to 30 % lines. At most, at most. Where's the
Oscar? That's what I'm saying, man. Is that that
storytelling mastery? Yeah Yeah, there's a lot
of Speculation that alien is based off riffraff
as well. Yeah Apparently that's not the case
James Franco would never he would never Yeah.
He said the biggest influence was actually a
local Florida rapper named Dangerous. Oh. Oh,
and he's in the movie. He's in the movie. He's
the rapper on stage when they're like the girls
are at the concert and stuff like that. But James
Franco is performing. That's what I thought too,
but I read somewhere that he's also on the stage.
Oh, okay, so like he's there with him? I think
so, yeah Because at first I didn't even realize
I was like I thought the same thing I was like
oh Wait, it's the guy was like the really long
dreads dreads. Yep, because yeah He's in it later
to like in the pool hall, and he's like why are
you scared? Literally another just creepy man.
Oh my god. Yeah, don't boys don't boys Yeah,
that's wild. Oh man Do we have any other behind
the scenes, otherwise? I feel like I've said
more words than this entire movie. Yeah, same.
Has in it. So Mom, good if you're good. I don't
have anything else to say about this one. I feel
like we've really just dumped out our souls.
I don't know what that means at all. Scarface
on repeat. Scarface I'm on loop on loop in my
crib. Look at my shit Okay, he does have the
most iconic lines though. Oh, yeah, I have a
whole like section of it just like his Which
is why when I look down I just saw scarface I
repeat I repeat Followed by oh, yeah deep throat
that gun Oh my god, insane. I think that's a
good one to sing. Hit me baby one more time to
play us out. I thought it was every time they
do hit me baby one more time to when they're
in the parking lot. They do. Oh, you're right.
Yes, they do. Or we could do that one too. But
I just don't know, you know, normally I do think
we can perform a song better than the original.
But I don't know. That's just too perfect for
me. OK, let's do it. I also think I know one
line of it, so. I think that's the only line
they play in the movie. So there isn't a lot
of lines in this. Right, so like that's the line
that I know too. Yeah. But we can do Hit Me Baby.
We can do Hit Me Baby. And that's all we do.
Oh, well, we can just, that can be it. I don't
care. I was gonna say, I was like, I didn't know
if I was gonna carry on. And I was like, I just
complained about how we only knew one line at
the last song. So we were doing this one and
we only give home one. Let's wrap this bed job.
Let's wrap it up. Well, I think that's a wrap
on our sprang brag. Sprang brag. Until next year,
sprang by. Forever. Forever. Well, that was a
fun one. More fun than I thought it was going
to be. Not this. This is always fun. I mean the
film itself. Yeah. It was a wild ride. All right.
Well, thanks for joining us on Sprang Break.
