From the dungeons of Morningstar, I'm Clint.
And I'm Stretch. And this is Prevailing Strange.
Welcome back to our week in review, a segment
of Prevailing Strange where we get to go over
some of the content that we've checked out this
week. If you like what we're doing here, guys,
please like, comment, subscribe, do all that
easy stuff that's just your bit of finger exercise.
Appreciate it. What have you checked out this
week? I finished The Bear. Oh, so not big. Okay.
Not big at all. It was shit. So you were on season
three, so you've done a season and a half in
that time? Yeah. Okay. And was it just the finishing
that you didn't like? The finishing? The fact
that he's basically just. tormented the shit
out of people for the last three years and now
he's just going to go, oh, boy. But do you not
understand what's happening there? To begin with,
he thought he was the best. He was coming in
to fix everything. Then he thought he was the
best so he kind of had to take the lead and now
he thinks it's best that he goes. Quitter. They
almost talked him out of it at the end of it.
I don't think he's gone. I was a bit shifty about
the other fellas out in the sandwich shop, what
the fuck they're doing. You think they're selling
more than sandwiches? No. I think they're fucking
going to oust the sandwich shop and fucking go
do their own thing. No. I think they just want
to make a chain, like expand it, that side of
the business. That side of their business will
expand. It's actually only making money. Yeah.
It'll expand, support the main thing, allow Carmi
to fucking chill the fuck out. And actually,
yeah, there's still a bit of meat on the bone
there. Dude, when I think at the end where Richie
and Kami are face to face and it's the most angry
you ever see Richie, that's true brother anger
right there. I've done that to some mates that
I'm really close with. And it's, yeah, fucking.
where you're trying to get inside the other bloke
where you just fucking, what did he say? No,
when you like you just want to push, yeah. Yeah.
It was very relatable. But I still can't stand
the Sydney character, dude. She's annoying the
shit out of me. Yeah, because she was fucking
a jump ship. Dude, she's just the whiniest, overacting,
just annoyance in this whole show. And it grinds
my gears. Yeah. I think you're supposed to sympathise
with her, but it is a bit whiny. Oh, dude. It
comes off a bit whiny. You know who I want to
watch a show of? Just the facts, dude. I love
them guys so fucking much. Hell yeah. They are
so lovely. And the little pep talk that Richie
gives him, he's like, they're like, can you give
me the room, please, guys? And he's like, what
are you doing? He goes, man, I just don't think
I fit in. I don't think I'm good enough. And
he goes, you're fucking beautiful. You are perfect.
Yeah. And then he's, what's his name? Ronald
Jeff. He's like, Jeff. It's like, it's such a.
The characters in it are better than the show
itself. Like even down to the Claire character,
I think she's wholesome as shit and her eyebrows
are wild as fuck. But, yeah, there's even some
parts in this where I'm like, oh, Jesus, Jamie
Lee Curtis, you're a fucking Oscar -winning actor.
Calm down. You're just driving it home far too
much. Yeah. I love Bob Odenkirk's character.
He's just a smart ass and he only pops up for
like three episodes. Yeah, isn't that fuck all?
And Uncle Jimmy, man. Yeah, Uncle Jimmy's cool.
Such a great character. Like even the last thing
where Computer's talking to the entrepreneurial
guy and he's like, Computer, get in the car.
Beep. And he's acting like a three -year -old.
I want to go. Beep. Beep. Beep. And he's just
holding on and going. I'm like, yeah, sweet.
Yeah, it's pretty funny. What do you think of
the showdown between Sugar and – Oh, dude. Fucking
hell. He was just hiding around the corner. He's
so good. He's like, I invited Francie to the
wedding. Are you really mad at me? Do you not
love me anymore? He's like, fucking so sweet,
dude. He's so sweet. I've been watching him on
Instagram, man, and just watching all his cooking
videos. He's so fucking loving. Just such a lovely
human. Yeah. And, yeah. There needs to be more
of him in the world and less of all his other
shit. So I'll get as many of Matty Matheson as
I can. Yeah. He's a good guy. Good guy. And legit,
dude, he is my favourite part of this whole show.
Yeah. He's definitely the laugh out loud the
most. But hard as well. They give so much hard,
dude. Oh, yeah. And even when John Cena comes
on, it's for one episode. But it's incredible.
Yeah, it's good. What do you watch? So we watch
the next three episodes of Black Rabbit. Okay.
Yeah, it's getting good. So it's one of those
shows that starts off with the ending and then.
like the showdown at the end and then it goes
back a few days in advance and you're like they're
picking at all the things and like it's leading
up and like how's that going to work because
that was that way still and so there's a good
bit of mystery in it. So I think this was either
Jason Bateman's baby or he was a part of it because
his co -star out of Ozarks has directed a few
of the episodes. Oh, yeah, right. Don't know
if they've written it as well. So I think it's,
you know, it's of the same production value.
The story's good and there's some twists and
stuff. Yeah, I might actually give that one a
go. Yeah, well, it's only, I think it's only
eight episodes. It's only one limited series.
Nice. Okay, so it's not going to be a season
two. It's just one and done. Yeah, story complete.
I watched Battlefield LA. Not for the first time,
right? No. Such a good movie. I like it. It was
fun enough, yeah. I liked it. I'm just going
to finger blush because they're all old ones.
The Running Man. Never seen it. The original
one with Arnold Schwarzenegger. No, never seen
it. Dude, that guy and his one -liners needs
to fucking curb his enthusiasm for that shit.
The whole movie is just. Honoured one -liners.
Yeah. He's like, you need to calm down, bro.
There's a script there, I'm sure. Just follow
the script. And then after that, we went and
watched Terminator 2. Right. Again. Great movie.
Bro, stick to the script. I forgot how much of
a bad actress. Old Love is. Linda Hamilton. Yeah.
So bad, dude. So bad it's good. She's terrible.
And then I looked up her IMDb. Not much. Nothing.
Nothing. And then Two Guns. Two Guns. Denzel
Washington and Mark Wahlberg based on a Top Cow
comic. Remember it came out and never watched
it. Great movie. Fantastic movie. Sensational
movie. You should watch it. Okay. It's got Cyclops
in it. And then I watched The Gladiator 2. Well,
I saw a couple of things. I know. I was just
thinking about you because they're all odd ones.
Okay. Cool, cool, cool, cool. So another thing
I started watching was Silo on Apple TV. Oh,
yeah, right. With Rebecca Ferguson. Yep. Yeah,
okay. You can definitely tell it's based on a
book. Yeah, right. The whole set -up premise
is very kind of. novel -like, why are they down
there? They've been there that long that nobody
knows why they're there and why they shouldn't
go above ground. Do you think this is a shitty
time to be releasing a show like this when there's
already another one out about it? This came out
before Fallout. Oh, did it? Yeah, it did. It's
been out for a while. Oh, okay. I'm pretty sure
it's on third season. Oh, okay. Well, it shows
how much I know about shit. Yeah, it came out
a few years ago. But, yeah. So it starts off
with a bit of mystery and it's obviously not
as kind of campy as Fallout. It's got that fucking
very Atomic Family vibe thing going on to the
extreme. This is more sci -fi. They've obviously
been living underground for a certain amount
of time and stuff. Yeah, right. Yeah, it's been
pretty good so far. Is it all underground or
do they actually come to the surface? They come
to the surface and there's some... Weird stuff
going on. Yeah, right. Recommend? Yeah. Well,
I mean, two episodes in and I'm interested to
find out what's going on. Oh, okay. There was
a show like that that got me a while back. It
was called Under the Dome. Another Stephen King
thing. Fuck, dude. Went nowhere. Yeah. So, like,
the first half of the first season, intrigued
as shit. Just read the book. Get it out of the
way. Find out what it's about. Okay, sweet. I'll
do that. Yeah. What else you got? The last television
show I watched was... The last episode of Peacemaker.
Oh, I didn't talk about that. I thought you were
leaving it on purpose. Now let's talk about that.
Oh, shit. Yeah, a lot of people are disappointed.
As someone who doesn't know anything about the
storyline of Salvation, it left me wanting so
much. Yeah, it definitely wasn't the big revelation
that I was kind of expecting. especially because
he was setting up a lot of broader stuff. Yeah.
Nothing directly tied to anything else we've
already seen. So he's obviously got plans, but
I think you have to be a hardcore DC fan, which
I'm not, to have known those two things. Well,
even Keith, he's alive. What's happening with
him? What happened? He didn't come back through.
Like, is that going to pay off later on? Is he
going to come back in Creature Commandos? It's
going to go on. Like there was no – there was
so many open parts to that. Nothing was ever
finished. Yeah. And we're not getting another
Peacemaker season and we are going to see these
characters going forward. I'm guessing we're
getting a Checkmate television show. Well, they'll
be in everything. Checkmate will be in everything
going forward. Right, okay. They'll be like the
Argus. James Gunn needs to keep his wife in the
universe. Dude. Do you know that she only earns
as much as Economist does? Yeah, right. Now,
I'll say only. It's still $350 ,000 an episode.
Yeah. US. Yeah. That's enough. Yeah. I'd be happy
with that. Dude. Yeah. I'd pay my house off.
One episode. Done. Thank you. Yeah, dude. And
by the way, that fella's been in so many James
Gunn shows. They all have. Yeah. The first time
she acted in a movie of his, shit, I can't remember.
I don't know. I just knew that she was in one
of the American Pie movies. Yeah. She was in
some, she played a zombie stripper in something.
Yeah. Yeah, like not massive roles. Yeah, because
she was married to the chick off – he was married
to the chick off the office. Which one? The American
office, the one that was dating – Jim. Jim, yeah.
Okay, right. Okay, I didn't know he was with
her. Brightburn. So she was in Brightburn with
him and that's where they sort of met. But did
she – plays hardcore well. So the fact that she's
dating the director, it doesn't really – I don't
run into it. It's not like the chick in Indiana
Jones. Indy! That was terrible. She didn't need
to be there. She could have stayed home. Yeah.
Or took smacking classes. Yeah, I was a little
let down. I assumed that salvation and checkmate
was a big thing, but it just wasn't a payoff
for me personally. Agreed. I guess we should
go do a bit of a deep dive on salvation before
we. point fingers and cast blame. Salvation's
Reach, I think the act was called, the whole.
Line. Thing was called, yeah. It wasn't a line.
It was a, what do you call it, like an arc where
all the comics have that going on in the background.
Yeah, I don't know. No idea. And that's probably
my ignorance. Maybe I should have looked into
it when they started mentioning Salvation. But
then they mentioned it too, so I don't know.
Yeah, but besides that, that's all I've watched
except for one more thing. Yeah. Okay, look,
we've had a fucking shit run with movies. I mean,
I didn't hate this movie. So you chose The Gladiator
or Gladiator 2. Yeah. It came out last year in
2024. Yeah. Written and directed by Ridley Scott
again. Oh, dude, he's one of the goats. The original
Gladiator was fucking cinema. It was incredible.
This one looked like it was shot with the soap
opera budget and it was very nothing going on
until the last 45 minutes. I don't know if we
watched the same movie. I think we did. So after
his home is conquered by the tyrannical emperors
who now lead Rome, Lucius is forced to enter
the Colosseum and must look to his past for his
strength. Well, he doesn't know he's Lucius until...
See, this pisses me off because his memory is
selective all the way through it. I think he
knew. That guy cannot act by the way. He is so
terrible. So you're talking about Paul Maskell,
who is starred as Lucius. We also had Pedro Pascal,
Joseph Quinn, Denzel Washington, and Connie Nielsen,
as well as a lot of other faces I've recognised
as well. That's the thing, man, a great cast.
Such a good cast. Just didn't see it. Like I
said, the last 45 minutes was sense. I liked
it. It was good. Up until that point, that was
just, I don't know. It made no sense. It was
originally, like this is the thing, right? It
was originally greenlit with a budget of $165
million and it eventually ballooned out to $310,
right? Making one of the most expensive movies.
that was made at the time. They ended up getting
a $65 million reimbursement from the Malta government
and then even more strikes added more, like $10
million. It was the most expensive R -rated film
in history, apart from Killers of the Flea on
Moon in 2023. and Deadpool and Wolverine in 24,
and they cost $200 million each. Yeah, right.
But this was the most expensive R -rated film
since Terminator 3, Rise of the Machines in 2003.
I mean, I can see it. Some of those special effects
were fucking good. Dude, and in me notes I was
saying later on, like the baboon fight, dude.
Them baboons looked sensational. Fucking nightmare
fuel, dude. They looked so good. And I even went
and watched an episode of the Corridor Crew.
They're a bunch of special effects nerds who
go through and they did a deep dive on that scene.
Mate, he'd done an amazing job on that scene.
Yeah. Even when he was wrestling with that ball
one, man, it didn't look clunky. Nope. There
was no cutaways. It was well done. It looked
tight. You know when they usually do chokes and
then you got. When the person in the green suit,
because it's not the same size and shape of whatever
they're wrestling, there's usually weird gaps
in arms and that. None of it. It was perfectly
done. It looked so good. The battle in the beginning
when they attack the area or whatever it was
called, where the ships were coming in, pretty
inaccurate with the ship siege towers. But anyway,
we'll overlook that. That ocean. Scene looked
fucking great, man. It looked really good. The
storm clouds coming through. Dude, some of the
shots, especially the vistas and shit where they're
just sprawling skylines. Perfect. So good. They
look so great. I need to wee. Like, they were
looking at making this directly after the first
one. They were looking at that and they were
like, numerous attempts to write a sequel. One
idea that was suggested by the producer, Douglas
Wick. was to have Maximus' body placed in a cave
and be resurrected, similar to Jesus. Russell
Grower told him, I don't think we have the rights
to that story. So musician Nick Cave also invited
to write a draft of a version by Crow and Sir
Ridley Scott. His version focused more on the
mythical elements of ancient Rome and would have
seen Maximus arrive in the afterlife, only to
be faced with other souls. who are yet to ascend
further. He eventually is tasked by Jupiter and
other Roman deities, or deities, to return to
Earth and find and kill Hephaestus. Yeah, right.
Yeah. The movie would have ended with Maximus
being cursed to live for eternity, featuring
montages of soldiers battling through the Crusades,
World War II, the Vietnam War, eventually revealing
a modern -day Maximus working at the Pentagon
in Washington. I'd fuck with that. I wouldn't
say no to that. That sounds pretty cool. The
studio decided not to go through with this. However,
that script is available to read online. Okay.
Yeah, you can read that. Nice. So opening up
this movie, I thought the Scott Free, like that
style that he has for his oil kind of animation
for the Scott Free logo. The montage of the original
movie was a nice little touch. Yeah, I thought
that was a chef's kiss, man. I thought that was
good. Denzel's acting in this, well, not acting,
his character, sometimes I thought he was the
best part about it. The man of many accents.
Sometimes I thought he was the worst part about
it. Yeah, it was like, was he inconsistent or
was he playing a role? I don't know. I watched
an interview. that said, I had to kiss a man
fully on the lips for this movie. And they cut
it. But it's okay. I killed him like five seconds
later. Yeah, right. It's like, wow. A lot of
slow motion in that first stanza of that wall.
Just some slow motion is okay. Every shot being
slow motion, really. Pisses me off. Yeah, I get
that. And, like, even when I was watching the
Justice League the other day, every time he goes
to the slow -mo, it's like, yeah, yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah. It's like, that's not necessary.
Yeah. For fuck's sake, stop it. It looked, the
movie looked so weird. It really looked like
it was shot through an iPhone. This one? Yeah.
It didn't look to me like it was shot in person.
It looked like it was shot on a green screen
and there was us and then there was stuff that
was put on a table in front of us and then in
the background everything's all on a single plane
and it's just blurry. You didn't notice that
through the whole movie? No. What copy did you
fucking watch? No, dude, the one that's on Paramount.
Really? Yeah, dude. It is so unsettling, so weird
looking. I don't know how you missed it. Oh,
I swear. No, I didn't do mushrooms. No. You must
have had some in your teeth, like spiked or something.
No. I don't know what you're talking about. Dude,
serious. I'll get some screen grabs and I'll
send them to you later. Okay. The other thing
I thought was it was really pathetic how easily
they overtook that wall at the start. That was
so weak. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get that. But at
the same time, there's obviously, if you know
anything about history, there's a lot of things
you've got to overlook with this show. It's not
very accurate. So, you know, it was one of those
things that, okay, we're doing that. Just go
along with it. Yeah. Look, I've played some games.
I know how to defend a wall better than that.
I mean, if that's your only access to this. from
the ocean because you're on a peninsula essentially.
Why is that out there in the ocean not guarded
better? They literally were able to drive boats
up to the wall. Silly, silly, silly design. And
then when the victors return back to Rome, the
amount of camera angles this guy wants to show
you is just insane. Yeah. I mean. Some of them
were pretty good angles, but, yeah, like you
probably didn't need them. Didn't need them.
And you're like. But there's just some people
riding horses who are fair. It's fine. Yeah.
I didn't hate the movie. I didn't really expect
it to be as good as the first one, though. Oh,
dude, no. The first one was so good. There were
some parallels that I enjoyed, the kind of dream
sequence of, you know, the afterworld and afterlife
and shit like that. Like, obviously there's going
to be spoilers in this. We're going in deep.
Yeah, it's been out for a year, guys. The fact
that in the original, you know, he's constantly
on the edge of death, so he's constantly kind
of seeing the wheat fields and stuff like that.
Where in this one, he doesn't fucking die in
the end. No. I understand. So how does he know
about the fucking wheat field? Yeah, I mean,
not so much about that, but I understand that,
you know, his wife passes away. Yeah. So maybe
that's the near -death thing that has. By the
way, great imagery when she's getting on the
boat with the boatman. Yeah, very cool. Oh, my
God, that was so good. I did like that. And then
the mirroring. where he's laying on the ground
turns out to be him at the bottom of the fucking
river at the end on the divide of this country
and the change. There's a lot of fucking metaphorical
things going on in this movie that I think it
didn't really need. No. I did like that, the
kind of setup, you know, he's returning back
and his mother's. new boyfriend is the one that
killed his wife yeah but they were both interested
in the same things but just because you know
pedro was kind of forced into this reluctantly
yeah and but you know he's done his part he's
still guilty by association but then he doesn't
want to kill the emperors he doesn't have it
like he had he had the chance out there in front
of him it was only the wrong against his mother
that he wanted to kind of avenge but in the end
he forgave him. It's deeper than I think a lot
of people might initially think this movie's
about. There's a lot of kind of things happening
that are pretty cool, what they've done. But,
yeah, I don't think it landed for a lot of people.
Yeah. In a movie that I thought was quite weak
across the board, The protagonist is just not
likeable. You do not connect. He's so wooden
about everything. So is Russell Crowe. Mate.
No. Stop that. No, dude. You can watch Gladiator
again. I am tired of people thinking he's a good
actor. No, no, no. In that first Gladiator movie,
that was good. The way he was able to convey
peace, quiet. And just be able to sit there and
watch a fucking bird, dude. The first scene of
the movie is him watching a bird. It's bullshit.
And then the end, like when he's telling Commodus
what to do with his armies and shit. You know,
release all these men. They're free men. They
fought as free men. They will die as free men.
You can't. He delivered it well. This kid has
nothing. He's definitely not as charismatic as
his father. Like the character, I don't think
the character's meant to be like that. No. I
honestly thought he did all right for the role
he was in. Like it wasn't like it was that deep.
You just got to go out there, fight and feel
bad about it. I really, really, really don't
know how you can not like Aquaman but like this.
You don't like so many good movies and the ones
that are. You're like, I can see the good and
the bad. See, a lot of the movies that you think
are terrible are just kind of falling short on
something that is potentially good. Oh, no. Aquaman
is just straight up terrible. No. Dude, when
he's fighting old mate with the gloves that have
metal pyramids on them and then no one's bleeding
at the end of it, fuck off, guy. It's rated R.
You're showing me a rhino's head on a table.
You're showing me a rhinoceros headbutting a
wall and its horn snapping off its face. And
you're not going to have someone bleeding when
they're getting smacked by some spike gloves?
Please. I mean, the spikes were on the back,
not on his knuckles, but, you know. Well, they
were all up here. There was knuckles, there was
things here, there was pyramids. Shut up. Yeah,
all I kept on writing, dude, was it looks like
there's only two planes, a background and a foreground.
It looks like it's being shot on a soundstage
like a soap opera. Yeah, man, it's just bad.
That's so weird. And the sound engineering, dude,
the sound engineering was way off, man, and I've
got a fucking – I've got a Sonos Surround sound
system and it was still fucked. God damn. I don't
know if we watch the same movie. Connie Nielsen
needs a fucking Razzie. Jesus Christ. That was
one of her worst acting. Just stop it. During
that Coliseum fight, we're in the ships, right?
And there's sharks everywhere. Where were they
pumping the water from? Right? How many spectators
were shot by arrows? Because mother effers were
just shooting indiscriminately with these bows
and arrows, and then from me to the wall away
from the spectators, how many spectators? I want
to see that number. I want to see their insurance
cost, their public liability. Let me see that
shit. Dude, in the last 45 minutes, this movie
turned up, and I started to enjoy it a bit more
when stuff started connecting. essentially after
Pedro Pascal died. It got good. Fucking doesn't
Joseph Quinn play a great fucking queer cunt
in this? Like, you're just like, you do not like
him at all. Watching him get in his throat, it
was so good. Perfect. Oh, that was good. And
fucking vicious, dude. I thought fucking Joaquin
Phoenix was fucking bad enough in the first one.
Joaquin fucking. Joaquin. Joaquin. I thought
Joaquin Phoenix was bad enough. He was an arse
in that one. He was a weird cunt and he was fucking
an arsehole. He was fucking his sister, for God's
sake. Yeah. Weird. I think Joseph Quinn's fucking
character was worse. He was a fucking handful.
And his syphilitic brother. Fucking falling to
pieces. Yeah. Dude, that, like, yeah, in the
last 45 minutes, I think this actually got okay.
I thought the movie was okay. The whole movie
was okay. I don't think it was great. Let us
know in the comments what you guys thought of
Gladiator 2. We might even have a poll. See if
we're going to rate Gladiator 2 as a pass or
a fail. No, just give us your stars. Just give
us your stars. Out of 5 or 10? Out of 5. Out
of 5. We've done everything else out of 5 so
far. What would you give this out of 5? 2. Poor.
2 .5. I'm going to solve it with 3. So you didn't
think it was much better than me. What would
you? Hang on. Go five. What's your five? What's
a five movie? What's a five movie for you? Driver.
Drive. Drive. Drive, yeah. That's the one with
Ron Gosling, yeah. Baby Driver is the other one.
Yeah, Baby Driver is the other one. I did not
like it at all. It's got Kevin Spacey in it,
the kiddie filler. We don't like him. Yeah, no
good. But Drive is probably one of the best movies
I've ever seen. Dude, that elevator scene. Old
mate's head just turning into pulp. There's so
much about that movie. Like he wears that scorpion
jacket, crisp white to begin with, when he's
basically innocent. But it's got that giant scorpion
on the back, which is like his superhero insignia.
And, like, I think the jacket is him. And over
the course of the movie, it just gets dirtier
and dirtier and dirtier and covered in blood.
And there's just that. Part of it is kind of
cool. The soundtrack is sensational. Yeah. Everybody
comes to fucking work on that fucking movie.
It reminded me so much of, like, what one was
it? Vice City. Grand Theft Auto. Yeah. Like just
the pulpy 70s retro sort of disco sort of shit.
Yeah. It was so cool. Oscar Isaac, one of the
first roles I ever saw him in. Is he in it? Yeah,
he plays the deadbeat boyfriend that was in jail.
Get fucked. What was his name again? Did not
know. I forget what his name was. Yeah, he's
the fucking, not Carlos. Oh, I forget what his
name was. But yeah, he was the fucking asshole
in it. Carlos. Yeah. Dude, I thought that was
a great movie. Yeah. But yeah, finishing up on
Gladiator 2, I think the fact that it did finish
so strong, like it did finish well. I hated the
ending. You did? That was probably my worst part
about it. I hated how it wrapped up at the end,
but I just liked the last 45 minutes. It was
the strongest part of the movie. It finished
strong. The ending, again, like you said, is
Game of Thrones. I hate to say that he probably
should have died at the end. Yes. But he probably
should have died at the end. The fact that he
united both sides at the end on that crossroads.
Yeah. Very hammy. Very. Shouldn't have happened
so fast. Yeah. Like it happened quick. There
should have been a lot more lead up to it. Yeah.
Did all the Praetorians and all the army just
fall as soon as they seen the other army arriving?
Yeah. You're meant to be Rome, the greatest fighting
force in the world. You've just conquered the
world and now you don't have someone to hold
off half an army? Yeah, well, they kind of show
the whole army there and it's very expensive
or whatever. Like back in the day when they used
to have these fucking big fucking fights with
like all these horses fucking arrayed and shit,
that would take them days to set up before they
both agreed, all right, let's strike a blow.
Yeah. And there was a whole kind of thing about
it. Like there's no way they were getting that
many horses in a row in the time it took him
to kill. Denzel Washington in the river. No.
Not at all. I agree. You've seen what it's like
getting through fucking Vincent Street, McDonald's
intersection there. Yeah. There's enough 5 ,000
people trying to get through there. Yeah. Look,
bro, it's – I agree. The ending was just – We
need to wrap this up. Oh, shit. The studio says
we've only got half an hour to wrap this up.
Let's hurry up and do it. Yeah. We've gone over
budget and we're on the last reel. Let's fucking
wrap it up. Yeah. And that's exactly what I felt
like I did. And I didn't like it. Didn't like
the movie. I think where he's at the very end,
he's like, talk to me, Dad, when he's. Yeah.
That should have been before the end. Yes. That
shouldn't have been one of the last things he
says. And he should have died after it. Yeah.
Yeah. Like. Absolutely. Talk to me, Dad. has
that kind of walking through the field like his
dad did after his mum had died, then he goes
to fight Denzel. And Denzel slays him and he
gets a, like, kills him, but it's like at the
end of Gladiator. It was essentially a remake
anyway. Basically, yeah. So fuck me dead. Well,
he should have been mortally wounded and then
convinced them to, you know, be good and then
passed away from his wounds. Yeah, we all just
get along. But, yes, that's all we have for Week
in Review. I will choose our next week's movie.
Are you doing it now? Yeah, I'll do it now because
I am prepared. Marrowbone. Marrowbone. Marrowbone.
That's the one that I showed you a few weeks
ago. You hadn't seen it. Is it as bad as Saltbone?
I fucking hope not. I've never seen it. Marrowbone.
Well, guess what, cunt? Never have you. Never
have I. Oh, no. Week after, we're watching Salt
Burn. Yeah, so Anya Taylor -Joy, Charlie Heaton,
Mia Goff. It sounds artsy. I think it might be
a little bit artsy. Why? Maybe a little bit.
Stop with your art here, shit. We need movies
that might be divisive for us because if we both
go, hey, I fucking love that movie. Did you love
that movie? I love that movie. And then that's
the end of the conversation. So you're just arguing
with me for the point of arguing with me. You
hated Gladiator as well, didn't you? No, I kind
of liked it. Fuck. I'm happy with this one. The
murder mystery was like I'm having trouble editing
it because it's just, Us going, yeah, that was
cool, and what about this, and that was cool,
and there's no kind of contention or discussion
into why we think one thing is one thing and
one thing is the other way, and I don't know.
Okay, so you want to argue. Fine, yeah, let's
fight. Not necessarily, but I think it is more
compelling to watch. I'll bring gloves at Tabervasa
and we'll see where it goes. What? There's a
fella that does TikToks. He's a white fella with
a mullet and he's got like a… Parrot. Never heard
of one of them before. A white fella with a mullet.
Fucking everywhere. Yeah. And his co -worker's
black and they talk about stuff anyway. He gets
up in his face in the morning where he's like,
we're going to fight or fuck. And he's like,
well, and then he says, well, I'm going to get
naked anyway. Either way, I'm getting naked.
The hell you say? That's fucking gold. Hell,
yeah. Well, come and subscribe. Do all the things,
guys. Appreciate you coming in. Life, peace,
chicken grease. See you Friday.
