WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.439
From the Dungeons of Morningstar, my name's Stretch.

00:00:03.120 --> 00:00:05.240
And I'm Clint, and this is Prevailing Strange.

00:00:17.239 --> 00:00:19.660
Welcome back, guys, to our Week in Review, a

00:00:19.660 --> 00:00:21.199
segment where we get to talk about some of the

00:00:21.199 --> 00:00:25.079
content that we've checked out this week. That's

00:00:25.079 --> 00:00:28.579
in my notes, and I don't even know why. This

00:00:28.579 --> 00:00:31.089
cunt people. I don't even know why it started

00:00:31.089 --> 00:00:34.670
playing. Oh, fuck. I'm just reading. And all

00:00:34.670 --> 00:00:40.409
of a sudden it's like. Anyway. Just keep rolling.

00:00:40.729 --> 00:00:43.689
Anyway, on the road to the Oscars, we've been

00:00:43.689 --> 00:00:47.729
checking out the Best Picture nominations. Nominations,

00:00:47.729 --> 00:00:49.890
mind you. Nominations, yes. Not Best Fucking

00:00:49.890 --> 00:00:54.750
Picture, trust me. I chose last week, which I'm

00:00:54.750 --> 00:00:57.270
sure Clint will remind you all about plenty of

00:00:57.270 --> 00:01:02.820
times. Marty Supreme. Unbeknownst to me, the

00:01:02.820 --> 00:01:05.579
director is the same director that did Uncut

00:01:05.579 --> 00:01:08.459
Gems, which I was not a fan of and I don't think

00:01:08.459 --> 00:01:10.980
Clint was a fan of either. No, I liked Uncut

00:01:10.980 --> 00:01:14.840
Gems, but I don't think it was Josh Safdie's

00:01:14.840 --> 00:01:16.480
direction that carried it. I think it was Adam

00:01:16.480 --> 00:01:19.359
Sandler's portrayal of that character that carried

00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:23.980
that show. There were at least some redeeming

00:01:23.980 --> 00:01:28.030
qualities in that show. I don't know what it

00:01:28.030 --> 00:01:32.090
is about Josh Safdie, but he's getting all these

00:01:32.090 --> 00:01:35.430
unlikable fucking characters and trying to get

00:01:35.430 --> 00:01:39.329
you to champion for him. This movie is one of

00:01:39.329 --> 00:01:42.890
them exact same things. He definitely has a style,

00:01:42.989 --> 00:01:45.890
at least I think it has a lot to do with the

00:01:45.890 --> 00:01:48.829
writers. I think the same writers did. Well,

00:01:48.829 --> 00:01:51.250
it was him and his brother. No, he directed it.

00:01:51.269 --> 00:01:53.689
He didn't write it. Oh, did he? No, no. There's

00:01:53.689 --> 00:01:57.780
a couple. I forget what the names are. She did

00:01:57.780 --> 00:02:02.439
recently If I Had Legs I'd Kick You and he did

00:02:02.439 --> 00:02:05.439
this. Anyway, so yeah, Marty Supreme came out

00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:08.240
last year. It's been nominated for Best Picture,

00:02:08.379 --> 00:02:13.919
the Oscars and the Gold Globes. It's also been

00:02:13.919 --> 00:02:17.360
nominated for Best Actor for Timothee Chalamet.

00:02:17.580 --> 00:02:20.520
He does a great job in it. There's no doubt about

00:02:20.520 --> 00:02:24.039
it. The kid's got chops. It's a fever pitch fucking

00:02:24.039 --> 00:02:28.270
effort, man. You fucking hate him. I fucking

00:02:28.270 --> 00:02:30.770
hated the character the whole way through it.

00:02:30.930 --> 00:02:34.169
Yeah, 100%. It's also been nominated for Best

00:02:34.169 --> 00:02:37.409
Casting, which I thought it did well, did a good

00:02:37.409 --> 00:02:45.050
cast. Cinematography, Costume Design, Directing,

00:02:45.069 --> 00:02:50.389
Editing, Production Design, and Original Screenplay.

00:02:51.689 --> 00:02:53.949
So it didn't get nominated for what I think is

00:02:53.949 --> 00:02:56.110
the best part of this movie. Which is? Sound.

00:02:56.849 --> 00:03:00.009
It didn't get a nomination for sound. I thought

00:03:00.009 --> 00:03:02.349
whoever done the sound engineering for this was

00:03:02.349 --> 00:03:05.150
fucking phenomenal. The soundtrack was great.

00:03:06.189 --> 00:03:10.210
The beats hit at exactly the right time. And

00:03:10.210 --> 00:03:13.689
music has a way of bringing you in and out of

00:03:13.689 --> 00:03:15.990
a scene. And he's done it fucking flawlessly.

00:03:16.169 --> 00:03:19.449
I thought the sound was the best part of this

00:03:19.449 --> 00:03:21.520
movie. Interesting. We'll touch on that in a

00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:23.960
minute. Oh, my God. I thought I just deleted

00:03:23.960 --> 00:03:27.479
everything. So the synopsis for Marty Supreme,

00:03:27.680 --> 00:03:29.960
if you haven't seen it, is Marty Meza, a young

00:03:29.960 --> 00:03:33.000
man with a dream no one respects, goes to hell

00:03:33.000 --> 00:03:38.139
and back in pursuit of greatness. Okay. I'd like

00:03:38.139 --> 00:03:42.080
you to read your review on this and then I'll

00:03:42.080 --> 00:03:44.919
read you mine. Okay. And then we'll meet in the

00:03:44.919 --> 00:03:48.099
middle. Right. We'll dock in the middle. I'll

00:03:48.099 --> 00:03:53.719
go on. You mentioned that Josh Safdy. Safdy,

00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:57.340
yeah. Safdy is the director. He also did Uncut

00:03:57.340 --> 00:04:01.039
Gems and Good Time with Robert Pattinson. And

00:04:01.039 --> 00:04:04.340
he also made an attempt at acting in Happy Gilmore

00:04:04.340 --> 00:04:06.740
2. He was the villain in Happy Gilmore 2. No,

00:04:06.740 --> 00:04:08.340
that was his brother, wasn't it? No, it was Josh

00:04:08.340 --> 00:04:11.199
Safdy. Was it? Okay. I haven't watched it. It

00:04:11.199 --> 00:04:15.969
stars Timothee Chalamet, Gwyneth Paltrow. Fran

00:04:15.969 --> 00:04:19.149
Drescher, which I did not recognise her to begin

00:04:19.149 --> 00:04:21.829
with until like towards the end. I'm like, holy

00:04:21.829 --> 00:04:25.129
fuck, that's Fran Drescher. Anyway, Taylor, the

00:04:25.129 --> 00:04:28.209
creator, in his first acting appearance as Wally,

00:04:28.350 --> 00:04:33.730
his friend, and Odessa Zion, her name is. She's

00:04:33.730 --> 00:04:36.089
just kind of popped up out of nowhere lately,

00:04:36.290 --> 00:04:40.209
been in a lot of different things. Right. Played

00:04:40.209 --> 00:04:43.529
Rachel, which I thought was a great part. I thought

00:04:43.529 --> 00:04:46.319
she was a good part in this. I'm going to come

00:04:46.319 --> 00:04:48.759
back and say you're 100 % correct. The villain

00:04:48.759 --> 00:04:51.939
in Happy Gilmore was his brother, Benny Safdie.

00:04:52.040 --> 00:04:54.920
Thank you. Sorry. So, yeah, I thought this was

00:04:54.920 --> 00:05:03.800
frantic, fanatic comedy of errors. I think, yeah,

00:05:03.860 --> 00:05:06.300
like I said, Timothy Chalamet gave a fever pitch

00:05:06.300 --> 00:05:09.399
effort. I can understand why he's been nominated

00:05:09.399 --> 00:05:11.860
for Best Actor. Dude, even Gwyneth Paltrow fucking

00:05:11.860 --> 00:05:16.680
done a great job. She did. I did really like

00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:21.259
Odessa Zion's support role in it. Yeah, she played

00:05:21.259 --> 00:05:24.379
Rachel. She played Rachel, yeah. I liked her

00:05:24.379 --> 00:05:27.379
part more than Gwyneth Paltrow's. 100%. Yeah,

00:05:27.399 --> 00:05:31.019
like she played his game throughout this entire

00:05:31.019 --> 00:05:35.040
movie. Yeah. They were made for each other. I

00:05:35.040 --> 00:05:37.579
think the narrative is persistent, it's snappy,

00:05:37.740 --> 00:05:42.699
but oftentimes it's exasperating and it's just...

00:05:43.000 --> 00:05:46.279
There were so many. If I wasn't ADHD as fuck

00:05:46.279 --> 00:05:48.879
and I had to finish it, I would have turned this

00:05:48.879 --> 00:05:53.399
off so many times. I get that. I think the cinematography

00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:57.120
of New York in particular, the city streets,

00:05:57.360 --> 00:06:00.860
the dive bars, the hangouts was fucking spot

00:06:00.860 --> 00:06:02.920
on. Of the time too, man. Very plausible. It

00:06:02.920 --> 00:06:05.279
looked so good. It did, yeah. I thought the synth

00:06:05.279 --> 00:06:08.519
-laden kind of soundtrack was a bit jarring.

00:06:09.040 --> 00:06:12.629
It's meant to be the 30s. 50s. It was the 50s.

00:06:12.649 --> 00:06:14.649
He was born in the 30s. Yeah, yeah. So it was

00:06:14.649 --> 00:06:16.550
50s, but it was very synth -laden. I thought,

00:06:16.569 --> 00:06:19.449
oh, that's kind of modern. Out of the time. On

00:06:19.449 --> 00:06:22.149
reflection, I didn't hate it. It just took me

00:06:22.149 --> 00:06:26.790
out in the time. Gotcha. Watching it. Overall,

00:06:27.029 --> 00:06:28.490
I thought it was a well -put -together movie.

00:06:29.730 --> 00:06:32.509
It was just the fact that I do not like this

00:06:32.509 --> 00:06:37.769
manic kind of fraught protagonist at all. I want

00:06:37.769 --> 00:06:40.589
to feel and care for someone in the show. In

00:06:40.589 --> 00:06:47.600
this? I cared more about a dog. Yeah. Yeah. I

00:06:47.600 --> 00:06:51.420
think he was unlikable. Yeah. He was disagreeable.

00:06:52.180 --> 00:06:57.399
And I think that, you know, when we do eventually

00:06:57.399 --> 00:07:01.160
get some kind of redemption, it's too little

00:07:01.160 --> 00:07:04.220
too late. It's fucking over. Yeah. It finishes.

00:07:04.519 --> 00:07:06.199
That's it. It's over. You don't get to see if

00:07:06.199 --> 00:07:07.959
he turns his light now. It's loosely based on

00:07:07.959 --> 00:07:11.170
a real story of a guy. Yep. Every time I think

00:07:11.170 --> 00:07:13.149
of Marty Supreme, all I think about is that tag

00:07:13.149 --> 00:07:15.449
that says Supreme. I don't know if it's got anything

00:07:15.449 --> 00:07:17.730
to do with it. It's fucking to be a table tennis

00:07:17.730 --> 00:07:20.750
man. Come on. There's so many other people you

00:07:20.750 --> 00:07:23.149
could have made a movie about. This guy does

00:07:23.149 --> 00:07:25.709
not deserve to have his story told at all. He

00:07:25.709 --> 00:07:28.870
had one good idea. Let's paint some balls orange.

00:07:29.029 --> 00:07:33.610
That was his idea. I'm sorry I interrupted. That's

00:07:33.610 --> 00:07:36.529
pretty much my kind of review over with. Okay.

00:07:37.209 --> 00:07:39.470
Do you want to wait till later for the stars?

00:07:40.120 --> 00:07:42.800
No, wait. Okay. So mine's a bit long -winded

00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:44.079
because there was so much that I didn't like

00:07:44.079 --> 00:07:50.019
about it and I had some stuff to say. Mate, I

00:07:50.019 --> 00:07:52.100
finally watched Mighty Supreme last night. I

00:07:52.100 --> 00:07:54.279
finished it this morning and honestly, I don't

00:07:54.279 --> 00:07:56.639
get the hype. So the movie's called Mighty Supreme,

00:07:56.839 --> 00:07:58.439
directed by Josh Safdie, and you can definitely

00:07:58.439 --> 00:08:01.459
feel the chaotic uncut gems energy all over it.

00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:04.420
But this time it just didn't land for me. It's

00:08:04.420 --> 00:08:06.959
about this 1950s table tennis hustler, Marty

00:08:06.959 --> 00:08:13.420
Mouser, played by Timothy Chalamet. Anyway. And

00:08:13.420 --> 00:08:15.339
look, he's talented as shit, there's no doubt

00:08:15.339 --> 00:08:18.560
about it, but the character is exhausting, not

00:08:18.560 --> 00:08:20.300
in a fun, love to hate him kind of way. He's

00:08:20.300 --> 00:08:22.300
just fucking draining. The bloke's arrogant,

00:08:22.459 --> 00:08:24.860
smug, constantly scheming, and I never really

00:08:24.860 --> 00:08:27.379
found out the reason to care whether he won or

00:08:27.379 --> 00:08:30.319
lost. The whole thing feels loud for the sake

00:08:30.319 --> 00:08:31.959
of being loud, and I should know because that's

00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:36.379
me. Fast -talking, frantic music, dramatic close

00:08:36.379 --> 00:08:39.909
-ups. The close -ups made me feel uncomfortable

00:08:39.909 --> 00:08:45.830
because he was always sweaty. No air conditioning

00:08:45.830 --> 00:08:48.370
back in the day. Just pimples everywhere. It

00:08:48.370 --> 00:08:50.970
just made you uncomfortable. Had that 4K fucking

00:08:50.970 --> 00:08:53.129
camera and that detail sort of gets right in

00:08:53.129 --> 00:08:58.509
there. Apparently, Gwyneth Paltrow had suggested

00:08:58.509 --> 00:09:01.610
off -camera to… Can you film me in 480p, please?

00:09:01.690 --> 00:09:04.809
No, to Timothee Chalamet that maybe you should

00:09:04.809 --> 00:09:08.919
get some… or something for his acne scars. Yeah,

00:09:08.940 --> 00:09:10.940
right. She thought it was legit. Oh, right. Yeah,

00:09:11.019 --> 00:09:13.019
the makeup was that good. They'd done a good

00:09:13.019 --> 00:09:15.659
job. Like, them acne scars look fucking real.

00:09:15.720 --> 00:09:18.240
And the scars and the freckles, yeah. Yeah, right.

00:09:18.700 --> 00:09:20.860
They looked great. There's no doubt about it.

00:09:22.720 --> 00:09:25.879
Where are we? It's trying too hard to feel intense

00:09:25.879 --> 00:09:28.620
that it actually forgets to tell a story that

00:09:28.620 --> 00:09:31.659
you can latch on to. It's like two hours or something

00:09:31.659 --> 00:09:33.960
of shaking you by the collar going, isn't this

00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:36.169
mental? And I'm sitting there like, oh, yeah,

00:09:36.370 --> 00:09:40.090
okay, I fucking get it. You've also got Gwyneth

00:09:40.090 --> 00:09:44.450
Paltrow playing herself, an aging movie star

00:09:44.450 --> 00:09:47.009
trying to reinvent herself, and that whole subplot

00:09:47.009 --> 00:09:49.690
felt so half -baked. It was a bit of an interesting

00:09:49.690 --> 00:09:52.269
idea, yeah, but it never really goes anywhere

00:09:52.269 --> 00:09:55.789
meaningful. And then random appearances from

00:09:55.789 --> 00:09:57.529
Tyler, the creator, and others just make you

00:09:57.529 --> 00:10:00.490
look, oh, look who we can get in a movie. There's

00:10:00.490 --> 00:10:05.169
no real substance to any of it. It's produced

00:10:05.169 --> 00:10:08.350
by A24. Let's face it, they really miss. They're

00:10:08.350 --> 00:10:11.029
doing fucking great things, which makes sense

00:10:11.029 --> 00:10:12.889
because it looks absolutely incredible. The production

00:10:12.889 --> 00:10:14.929
designs are beautiful. The costumes are on point.

00:10:15.029 --> 00:10:18.370
The 1955 is spot on. It gives all that visually,

00:10:18.549 --> 00:10:21.970
and it's impressive. The score is intense as

00:10:21.970 --> 00:10:24.129
hell, and that's one thing that I took away from

00:10:24.129 --> 00:10:26.710
this. The score was great. I really enjoyed it.

00:10:26.789 --> 00:10:28.590
Which is funny because it didn't get nominated

00:10:28.590 --> 00:10:33.120
at all. At all. At all. How? I thought the score

00:10:33.120 --> 00:10:35.000
was good. I just thought it was contradictory

00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:37.279
to the theme. I thought it was the best part

00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:39.120
of the film. So if it's the best part of the

00:10:39.120 --> 00:10:43.539
film that I thought, how the fuck did it get?

00:10:43.779 --> 00:10:46.840
Anyway, I digress. But that's kind of the problem.

00:10:46.940 --> 00:10:48.960
It's style over substance. I kept waiting for

00:10:48.960 --> 00:10:51.080
it to slow down and give me something real, some

00:10:51.080 --> 00:10:53.360
emotional punch, some reason to carry out Marty

00:10:53.360 --> 00:10:56.299
beyond the he's ambitious. But it just kept on

00:10:56.299 --> 00:11:00.129
sprinting. And all the critics are fucking blowing

00:11:00.129 --> 00:11:02.190
this thing like it's going out of fashion, man.

00:11:02.470 --> 00:11:04.309
Everybody's loving it. I'm just like, and that's

00:11:04.309 --> 00:11:07.350
why I don't believe the fucking Rotten Tomatoes

00:11:07.350 --> 00:11:09.610
or the IMDBs or the Critics' Choices and all

00:11:09.610 --> 00:11:15.389
that sort of shit. Fuck them. But it just keeps

00:11:15.389 --> 00:11:18.590
sprinting. Calling it bold, daring, and one of

00:11:18.590 --> 00:11:21.649
Chalamet's best performances, I agree, was one

00:11:21.649 --> 00:11:24.389
of his best. But at the same time, I didn't like

00:11:24.389 --> 00:11:27.759
it. It just felt really messy. It wanted to be

00:11:27.759 --> 00:11:29.559
this grand character study, but it never actually

00:11:29.559 --> 00:11:32.340
dug deep enough for it. By the end, I wasn't

00:11:32.340 --> 00:11:35.259
moved. I wasn't inspired. I was just tired. It's

00:11:35.259 --> 00:11:37.659
not terrible. It's clearly fucking well made.

00:11:37.879 --> 00:11:40.299
Let's face it. It's well made. Them set designs

00:11:40.299 --> 00:11:43.200
from New York City were absolutely bonkers, dude.

00:11:43.320 --> 00:11:45.879
So good. Even when you're going into them ping

00:11:45.879 --> 00:11:48.440
pong fucking underground dens and shit. Dives

00:11:48.440 --> 00:11:50.059
and stuff, yeah. Come on, man. They all look

00:11:50.059 --> 00:11:52.960
so good. None of that exists now. And they made

00:11:52.960 --> 00:11:54.700
it, and it looked so fucking authentic. It looked

00:11:54.700 --> 00:11:58.399
great. Yeah, it wasn't for me, man. If you love

00:11:58.399 --> 00:12:00.379
chaotic, high -stress character pieces, maybe

00:12:00.379 --> 00:12:02.240
you'll vibe with it. But for me, I reckon I tried

00:12:02.240 --> 00:12:04.980
too hard and forgot to make me care. Yeah, 100%.

00:12:04.980 --> 00:12:09.620
I agree with you there. It's just I did not resonate

00:12:09.620 --> 00:12:12.620
with him. I kind of want to feel something from

00:12:12.620 --> 00:12:15.440
a character, whether it's a resonation or like.

00:12:17.519 --> 00:12:19.379
Good people doing bad things, bad people doing

00:12:19.379 --> 00:12:22.919
good things. This is just a dude doing bad things

00:12:22.919 --> 00:12:24.200
and you didn't care for him at all. Constantly.

00:12:24.200 --> 00:12:27.779
The only time I thought, hang on a minute, this

00:12:27.779 --> 00:12:29.840
could get good is at the end when the baby's

00:12:29.840 --> 00:12:32.740
born and he fucking cries. He loses it. Too little,

00:12:32.799 --> 00:12:36.600
too late. Too late, dude. And then credits. Spoiler

00:12:36.600 --> 00:12:40.360
alert. So you said about A24, this is their most

00:12:40.360 --> 00:12:43.200
expensive movie they've ever made with a budget

00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:47.000
of $70 million roughly. Okay. Massive cast. Massive

00:12:47.000 --> 00:12:50.220
cast. Huge cast. And they did some really good

00:12:50.220 --> 00:12:55.139
jobs on the set pieces. It was $147 to $155 million

00:12:55.139 --> 00:13:01.179
worldwide it grossed. It's done the best for

00:13:01.179 --> 00:13:04.120
any A24 movie as well as being the most expensive.

00:13:05.370 --> 00:13:09.750
As for the critics, it's 93 % from 344 reviews

00:13:09.750 --> 00:13:12.909
on Rotten Tomatoes. Shut up. Shut the fuck up.

00:13:12.909 --> 00:13:17.330
7 .9. No, you shut the fuck up. I'm talking 7

00:13:17.330 --> 00:13:23.350
.9 out of 10 on IMDb and 4 .2 out of 5 on Letterboxd.

00:13:23.409 --> 00:13:26.070
I want to know, what is your rating out of 5?

00:13:26.470 --> 00:13:30.990
2. I gave it 2 .5. God, you're fucked. Mainly

00:13:30.990 --> 00:13:32.870
because it was such a well put together movie.

00:13:33.960 --> 00:13:36.259
But it's also in the same place because I just

00:13:36.259 --> 00:13:41.379
didn't like him. Dude. I really wanted to, though.

00:13:41.460 --> 00:13:43.539
That's the whole point. Like, I like Timothee

00:13:43.539 --> 00:13:45.740
Chalamet. I did, yeah. But that's the good thing.

00:13:45.799 --> 00:13:48.419
He's done such a great job. I hate him. How can

00:13:48.419 --> 00:13:51.120
you say that this is the most successful one?

00:13:51.279 --> 00:13:54.279
Like, you think A24, they've done. Well, it's

00:13:54.279 --> 00:13:56.139
the biggest box office out of any of them. Oh,

00:13:56.139 --> 00:14:00.759
okay. Because Ex Machina didn't go to cinema,

00:14:00.860 --> 00:14:03.750
did it? No. Because that was incredible. Have

00:14:03.750 --> 00:14:05.649
you ever seen Ex Machina? No, I haven't. Oh,

00:14:05.649 --> 00:14:09.009
my God. I'm just stating the facts. It's their

00:14:09.009 --> 00:14:10.950
biggest budget and it's their biggest return.

00:14:12.549 --> 00:14:14.409
And did you ever see the other movie they made

00:14:14.409 --> 00:14:17.470
called Swiss Army Man? Daniel Radcliffe. I haven't

00:14:17.470 --> 00:14:18.529
seen it. I don't know what you're talking about.

00:14:18.669 --> 00:14:20.730
You need to watch that film. It is absolutely

00:14:20.730 --> 00:14:24.409
incredible. I do love what A24 is doing, man.

00:14:24.529 --> 00:14:27.629
They're just pumping out. Fucking sick films.

00:14:27.889 --> 00:14:30.159
Sick films. And even when I. I don't like them.

00:14:30.159 --> 00:14:33.379
I appreciate what they're doing. Yes. Even this,

00:14:33.480 --> 00:14:35.639
I don't like the movie. I appreciate what they've

00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:39.259
done here. It looks sensational. I think if the.

00:14:39.639 --> 00:14:43.480
Hereditary was A24 as well. Yeah. Yeah. I think

00:14:43.480 --> 00:14:48.620
if the soundtrack had more like brass, big band

00:14:48.620 --> 00:14:52.740
style. Yes. Yep. Probably would have been better,

00:14:52.799 --> 00:14:57.090
but the synth took me out. I'm like, oh. Oh,

00:14:57.110 --> 00:14:59.730
why are we getting modern music? But here's a

00:14:59.730 --> 00:15:02.730
couple of things I read. They did The Lighthouse.

00:15:03.129 --> 00:15:07.590
Yeah. I think they've done all of fucking Eggers

00:15:07.590 --> 00:15:12.129
movies. Yeah, dude. Watch Eggers movies. Don't

00:15:12.129 --> 00:15:15.899
tell me what to do. So the first paramedics that

00:15:15.899 --> 00:15:18.100
were ever established in New York, in the Bronx

00:15:18.100 --> 00:15:21.059
specifically, was in 1974, despite the fact that

00:15:21.059 --> 00:15:22.840
they say, get the ambulance here for our mate

00:15:22.840 --> 00:15:25.899
when he fell through the fucking roof, which

00:15:25.899 --> 00:15:27.879
was fucking gnarly. I did not expect that to

00:15:27.879 --> 00:15:31.480
happen. Fucking poor dog. Another inconsistency

00:15:31.480 --> 00:15:35.500
was the menu at the Ritz in London should have

00:15:35.500 --> 00:15:38.720
been in pounds, shillings and pence. It wasn't.

00:15:38.720 --> 00:15:42.070
It was in decimals or whatever it's called. And

00:15:42.070 --> 00:15:45.090
when he says, I'll rip your unibrow off in the

00:15:45.090 --> 00:15:48.450
pool hall or whatever it is, unibrow was coined

00:15:48.450 --> 00:15:54.429
in the 80s. So some inconsistencies that were

00:15:54.429 --> 00:15:57.230
only, I didn't realise them in the time I found

00:15:57.230 --> 00:15:58.470
this out. I wouldn't have realised that either.

00:15:59.409 --> 00:16:04.009
Look, I love that Drift King sticker. I don't,

00:16:04.009 --> 00:16:09.350
I love this for art's sake. When you go to an

00:16:09.350 --> 00:16:10.690
art gallery and you look at things, you're like,

00:16:10.730 --> 00:16:12.549
oh, that looks incredible. You go to something

00:16:12.549 --> 00:16:14.330
else, you're like, oh, that looks weird. But

00:16:14.330 --> 00:16:16.029
you look closer and you see the brush strokes

00:16:16.029 --> 00:16:17.970
and the way it's been built up and see all that

00:16:17.970 --> 00:16:21.629
sort of shit. 100%. You might not like what it's

00:16:21.629 --> 00:16:24.110
about, but you like what effort's been put in.

00:16:24.129 --> 00:16:25.970
Exactly. That's what I'm like with this film.

00:16:26.169 --> 00:16:29.409
I will never watch it again. Unless Steph wants

00:16:29.409 --> 00:16:35.090
to watch it. Oh, the way I – mother effer. We're

00:16:35.090 --> 00:16:37.350
going to talk about it after. But the way I watched

00:16:37.350 --> 00:16:41.049
Frankenstein. So Rachel was watching something

00:16:41.049 --> 00:16:42.769
in bed. I'm like, fuck, I don't want to watch

00:16:42.769 --> 00:16:44.809
it. I hate watching true crime about kids. I

00:16:44.809 --> 00:16:46.850
fucking hate it. So I'm like, babe, I'm going

00:16:46.850 --> 00:16:48.909
to go to my room and I'm going to watch Frankenstein.

00:16:50.309 --> 00:16:53.649
Do not regret it. That movie is fucking amazingly

00:16:53.649 --> 00:16:56.350
beautiful, gorgeous, sexy, fucking the whole

00:16:56.350 --> 00:16:58.230
shebang deal. We'll talk about it in a sec. Let

00:16:58.230 --> 00:17:00.450
me, is there anything I want to say about this

00:17:00.450 --> 00:17:03.639
before we go on to that? That's about as much

00:17:03.639 --> 00:17:05.559
time as I'm willing to kind of put on this movie.

00:17:05.900 --> 00:17:08.440
Agreed. Yeah, agreed. It's good. If he's going

00:17:08.440 --> 00:17:10.460
to watch it, great. Go ahead. Tell us what you

00:17:10.460 --> 00:17:12.700
think about it. We really want to hear what fucking

00:17:12.700 --> 00:17:14.319
other people think about the movies as well because

00:17:14.319 --> 00:17:16.319
I look at things with a completely different

00:17:16.319 --> 00:17:17.599
eye than you, so I want to hear what you've got

00:17:17.599 --> 00:17:20.059
to say. Yeah, it's good. It's not great. That's

00:17:20.059 --> 00:17:23.059
a personal opinion. I don't like that frantic

00:17:23.059 --> 00:17:25.700
kind of energy that they did with Uncut Gems.

00:17:25.740 --> 00:17:29.640
I didn't like that either. And that's the thing

00:17:29.640 --> 00:17:31.759
too. It's fucking bang, bang, bang, bang, bang,

00:17:31.759 --> 00:17:33.279
bang, bang. It's going to happen over the space

00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:36.460
of a 48 -hour period. This happens over the space

00:17:36.460 --> 00:17:38.980
of like eight weeks or something. Yeah. So many

00:17:38.980 --> 00:17:41.880
things go wrong. Such a short period of time.

00:17:42.099 --> 00:17:45.380
And it's just everything goes wrong. Yeah. Okay.

00:17:45.519 --> 00:17:47.940
You kind of get bored of it. Even to the point

00:17:47.940 --> 00:17:51.220
when he's stealing a necklace. Yeah. It's fucking

00:17:51.220 --> 00:17:53.680
costume jewelry, bro. She's an actor. Deal with

00:17:53.680 --> 00:17:55.019
it. That was pretty funny. It's actually hilarious.

00:17:55.819 --> 00:18:00.420
But yeah, give it a watch. I reckon it's worth

00:18:00.420 --> 00:18:02.420
a watch. Oh, I'm not recommending people watch

00:18:02.420 --> 00:18:07.579
it. If you like uncut gems, watch it. Yeah, I

00:18:07.579 --> 00:18:09.920
don't want people to hate me. I like uncut gems.

00:18:10.680 --> 00:18:13.519
That's the weird thing. You hated it. I did,

00:18:13.559 --> 00:18:17.500
yeah. I didn't mind uncut gems. But I think,

00:18:17.519 --> 00:18:22.799
like I said, I love Adam Sandler. Even when he

00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:26.259
did Jack and Jill, I could see what he was trying

00:18:26.259 --> 00:18:28.720
to do. Yeah. Failed miserably because that movie

00:18:28.720 --> 00:18:31.279
is just a whole fucking stealing me a pile of

00:18:31.279 --> 00:18:37.619
crap. But this had no redeeming qualities. No,

00:18:37.660 --> 00:18:41.359
that's true. So Frankenstein, it is another best

00:18:41.359 --> 00:18:44.019
nominated picture for the Oscars. If it don't

00:18:44.019 --> 00:18:48.880
win, if fucking Marty Supreme wins over Frankenstein,

00:18:48.880 --> 00:18:53.019
because let's face it, the set designs in that

00:18:53.019 --> 00:18:58.369
fucking thing. They build that ship. Bro. Bro,

00:18:58.529 --> 00:19:02.990
that castle, holy shit. That laboratory, holy

00:19:02.990 --> 00:19:08.089
shit. The costume, holy shit. That ship, holy

00:19:08.089 --> 00:19:11.829
shit. That whole movie was me going, wow. Okay,

00:19:11.930 --> 00:19:15.430
so a few facts if you don't know. Hang on! I

00:19:15.430 --> 00:19:19.750
made sure, I started watching it on me TV. I'm

00:19:19.750 --> 00:19:22.609
like, fuck this. I went out and got me meta headset,

00:19:22.869 --> 00:19:26.599
put that on. 300 -meter fucking screen, dude,

00:19:26.660 --> 00:19:29.940
and I watched it with an erection. You can continue

00:19:29.940 --> 00:19:33.000
in a second. It was stunning. Directed by Guillermo

00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:37.099
del Toro. Guillermo del Toro. Netflix bankrolled

00:19:37.099 --> 00:19:38.819
it, I think, or at least bought it. Netflix original.

00:19:39.819 --> 00:19:43.279
It stars Oscar Isaac, Jacob Elordi, or is it

00:19:43.279 --> 00:19:48.059
Elodie? Elodie. Elodie. Mia Gough. Mia Gough.

00:19:48.480 --> 00:19:53.220
Okay. Okay. This movie sold me on Mia Gough,

00:19:53.240 --> 00:19:58.160
man. Now, she was great in Marabone, but this,

00:19:58.160 --> 00:20:00.799
mate, she fucking shows chops. When she slaps

00:20:00.799 --> 00:20:02.839
Oscar Isaac and she says, get out of my room,

00:20:03.059 --> 00:20:05.759
you fucking felt that shit, that anger, that

00:20:05.759 --> 00:20:14.160
hatred. This movie done for me what Marty Supreme

00:20:14.160 --> 00:20:17.339
failed to do. The main antagonist is a fucking

00:20:17.339 --> 00:20:21.900
prick. Isn't he? And you hate his guts. But.

00:20:22.819 --> 00:20:24.960
there's parts where you want to champion for

00:20:24.960 --> 00:20:28.099
him. True. And you feel a way about him. You're

00:20:28.099 --> 00:20:29.759
not just, oh, fuck, this bloke's annoying as

00:20:29.759 --> 00:20:31.420
shit and want to fucking stab yourself in the

00:20:31.420 --> 00:20:34.720
eye with a pen. So in the book, you know, he

00:20:34.720 --> 00:20:38.000
has a complex relationship with the monster.

00:20:38.079 --> 00:20:40.940
He kind of, his whole life works up to this.

00:20:41.099 --> 00:20:45.440
He makes this monster for creation. Turns out

00:20:45.440 --> 00:20:49.140
he thinks it's a monster. It's not quite as abrupt,

00:20:49.359 --> 00:20:53.299
his dislike for this thing. in the books. But

00:20:53.299 --> 00:20:56.559
in the movie, it's almost instantaneous. As soon

00:20:56.559 --> 00:20:58.779
as he locks him downstairs. Yeah. That's what

00:20:58.779 --> 00:21:01.279
I like about Oscar Isaac. He plays a great lovable

00:21:01.279 --> 00:21:05.119
character and, man, he can be a cunt. I agree.

00:21:05.279 --> 00:21:07.480
And that's why he's in Ex Machina, which will

00:21:07.480 --> 00:21:09.380
bring me back around to this. In Ex Machina,

00:21:09.500 --> 00:21:12.299
it's very much Victor Frankenstein. Oh, really?

00:21:12.420 --> 00:21:15.900
Yeah, okay. Because he's taken this android and

00:21:15.900 --> 00:21:18.319
he's given it AI and he's given it feelings and

00:21:18.319 --> 00:21:20.420
he's given it emotion and he's given it reasoning

00:21:20.420 --> 00:21:22.779
and all that sort of shit. And again, it's locked

00:21:22.779 --> 00:21:25.900
up in a fucking glass cage and a reporter comes

00:21:25.900 --> 00:21:29.819
to do a report on this thing. Very similar movie

00:21:29.819 --> 00:21:33.920
but a more modern realisation. Speaking about

00:21:33.920 --> 00:21:35.859
Mia Goth, I like that they put eyebrows on her

00:21:35.859 --> 00:21:38.500
and she's almost unrecognisable as the mother.

00:21:38.619 --> 00:21:42.059
She is absolutely beautiful, dude. I thought

00:21:42.059 --> 00:21:44.980
she was so weird looking but she is absolutely

00:21:44.980 --> 00:21:48.910
stunning and can fucking... Yeah, man. You watch

00:21:48.910 --> 00:21:57.750
ex -Maxine Pearl. Yeah. Yeah. She is good. Yeah,

00:21:57.750 --> 00:22:03.329
right. Yeah, Marabone, like I'd seen, I'd heard

00:22:03.329 --> 00:22:05.769
about her. She didn't have much to do in Marabone.

00:22:05.809 --> 00:22:08.549
She didn't say much. She was really muted. No,

00:22:08.769 --> 00:22:10.910
but she played a really good part. Like she played

00:22:10.910 --> 00:22:14.250
that part. She stuck in her lane. Yep. And like

00:22:14.250 --> 00:22:18.049
fulfilled that role. Yeah. Yeah, I think she's

00:22:18.049 --> 00:22:20.890
really good. Oh, dude, got chops. Yeah. But,

00:22:20.930 --> 00:22:23.710
yeah, this movie sold me on me a golf, man. Fuck

00:22:23.710 --> 00:22:30.250
me dead. So good. Jacob Elody, man. The first

00:22:30.250 --> 00:22:34.750
scene you see is just him screaming, Victor!

00:22:35.650 --> 00:22:38.529
And you're like, they put a reverberation in

00:22:38.529 --> 00:22:41.710
it in post. Yep. And it gets that real gah, that

00:22:41.710 --> 00:22:45.000
guttural fucking scream. And it sounded so. Haunting

00:22:45.000 --> 00:22:47.619
dude. Fuck yeah. Like he was so heartbroken.

00:22:47.619 --> 00:22:49.920
He's just like, I'm going to destroy you. Yeah.

00:22:50.960 --> 00:22:54.700
And just the power. The power of it was so fucking

00:22:54.700 --> 00:23:00.259
good. Yeah. Just Elodie's presence in this was

00:23:00.259 --> 00:23:05.240
sensational. Fucking graphic. Yeah. Graphic.

00:23:05.240 --> 00:23:08.480
Yeah. All the anatomy stuff. All the anatomy

00:23:08.480 --> 00:23:11.839
stuff. And it looks so fucking good. And it was

00:23:11.839 --> 00:23:15.710
all there. Like that was. The body with its back

00:23:15.710 --> 00:23:18.230
spread open, fucking pinned down and shit, that

00:23:18.230 --> 00:23:20.349
was fucking gnarly. Like when he's filleting

00:23:20.349 --> 00:23:22.130
the hand and he's pulling on the tendons and

00:23:22.130 --> 00:23:26.849
the fingers are like. Mm -hmm. It's just even

00:23:26.849 --> 00:23:30.509
everything down to the hand -drawn anatomy books,

00:23:30.630 --> 00:23:34.650
man. Yep. Gorgeous. Stunning. He don't, Guillermo

00:23:34.650 --> 00:23:37.710
del Toro does not miss. No, he doesn't. Gorgeous.

00:23:37.869 --> 00:23:39.630
Stunning. I can't say enough good things about

00:23:39.630 --> 00:23:44.450
this movie, man. And if it gets beaten. by fucking

00:23:44.450 --> 00:23:48.430
Marty Supreme. I still don't think either of

00:23:48.430 --> 00:23:49.930
them are going to get Best Picture. I think it's

00:23:49.930 --> 00:23:54.369
going to Sinners. No. No way. I suppose he is

00:23:54.369 --> 00:24:00.630
of that persuasion. No, I just mean as a picture

00:24:00.630 --> 00:24:02.829
as a whole, I think it is a better well put together

00:24:02.829 --> 00:24:05.609
picture. You think Sinners is better than Frankenstein?

00:24:05.750 --> 00:24:09.849
Yeah. No, fuck off. Yeah. No, you're wrong. You're

00:24:09.849 --> 00:24:11.769
so fucking wrong. Frankenstein was beautiful,

00:24:11.910 --> 00:24:14.990
but at points it felt a little bit rushed and

00:24:14.990 --> 00:24:20.130
then almost like it was the cut was a little

00:24:20.130 --> 00:24:22.630
abrupt in the way it was put together at the

00:24:22.630 --> 00:24:28.430
end. It wasn't horrible. It was long. It could

00:24:28.430 --> 00:24:30.269
have been longer. It could have been longer.

00:24:30.309 --> 00:24:32.609
I do agree with you there that it seemed rushed.

00:24:32.710 --> 00:24:36.589
Like you see like chapter one is the creator's

00:24:36.589 --> 00:24:41.119
tale. And then chapter two is the creation's

00:24:41.119 --> 00:24:44.619
tale. The creation's tale goes for 15 minutes.

00:24:46.099 --> 00:24:48.380
The creator's tale goes for an hour and 40 minutes.

00:24:48.559 --> 00:24:53.400
Yeah. I wanted to hear more about what the creation

00:24:53.400 --> 00:24:56.079
had been doing. And that, dude, that scene with

00:24:56.079 --> 00:24:58.420
the blind man, that whole fucking storyline with

00:24:58.420 --> 00:25:00.859
the blind man. It was beautiful. Gorgeous. Just

00:25:00.859 --> 00:25:05.759
absolutely gorgeous. Yeah. It fucking broke my

00:25:05.759 --> 00:25:08.640
heart. Legit broke my heart when the wolves came.

00:25:08.740 --> 00:25:10.319
As soon as he walked back and you see the wolves,

00:25:10.420 --> 00:25:13.640
my heart just sank. And I'm like, oh, no. And

00:25:13.640 --> 00:25:19.000
Jacob Elliott, he does such a great fucking job

00:25:19.000 --> 00:25:21.599
under all that prosthetic, under all that makeup.

00:25:21.700 --> 00:25:25.119
Sometimes his face is covered by a shawl. But

00:25:25.119 --> 00:25:27.259
just the emotion that he's conveying in his eyes,

00:25:27.359 --> 00:25:29.240
man, and that little glint he always gets in

00:25:29.240 --> 00:25:33.700
the left eye. It's like it's a hollow eye or

00:25:33.700 --> 00:25:35.299
something but there's a glint in it and it's

00:25:35.299 --> 00:25:37.039
just this tiniest touch but it happens every

00:25:37.039 --> 00:25:39.480
once in a while and it's just enough to go, hang

00:25:39.480 --> 00:25:41.700
on a minute, he's really looking deep into the

00:25:41.700 --> 00:25:46.539
person that he's talking to. I could blow this

00:25:46.539 --> 00:25:50.740
movie all day, man. I could just blow Guillermo

00:25:50.740 --> 00:25:54.779
del Toro, man, legit. Elordi, I think he has

00:25:54.779 --> 00:25:59.029
chops, man. The size and the scale of him too

00:25:59.029 --> 00:26:03.430
was really cool. I think he's 6 '5". Yeah. And

00:26:03.430 --> 00:26:06.029
I loved how it was a different take. Like it

00:26:06.029 --> 00:26:07.329
wasn't, oh, we're going to chop the head off

00:26:07.329 --> 00:26:09.009
somebody and then put a head on. We're not going

00:26:09.009 --> 00:26:10.910
to chop an arm off and put an arm on. It was

00:26:10.910 --> 00:26:13.450
like different muscle fibres were taken from

00:26:13.450 --> 00:26:16.930
a different person. Yeah. He had hundreds of

00:26:16.930 --> 00:26:18.789
bodies there, man, just cutting bits and pieces

00:26:18.789 --> 00:26:21.130
off them. Just sending them down the fucking

00:26:21.130 --> 00:26:23.910
hole in the middle. It was a fucking churnal

00:26:23.910 --> 00:26:28.039
fucking house downstairs. Fucking went on my

00:26:28.039 --> 00:26:30.859
Christoph Waltz falls down that funnel. Oh, dude.

00:26:31.099 --> 00:26:33.200
And then he picks his head up off the floor.

00:26:33.259 --> 00:26:37.400
I'm like, oh, my God. Stuck there. Fucking what?

00:26:37.720 --> 00:26:42.460
Fuck it before it gets cold. But, dude, I really,

00:26:42.539 --> 00:26:45.539
really loved this movie. I got so emotional.

00:26:48.180 --> 00:26:51.819
I really, really, really, really, I just, I could

00:26:51.819 --> 00:26:54.980
watch, I could watch. Jake Abelity walk around

00:26:54.980 --> 00:26:57.259
in that costume and just watch what he does with

00:26:57.259 --> 00:27:02.200
his adventures. It was gorgeous. And I don't

00:27:02.200 --> 00:27:04.019
know why it took me so fucking long to watch

00:27:04.019 --> 00:27:07.279
it. What would you give it out of five? Five,

00:27:07.279 --> 00:27:11.720
man. Whoa. Five. Five. That's big. It's perfect.

00:27:12.180 --> 00:27:15.299
The performances, brilliant. The writing, brilliant.

00:27:15.500 --> 00:27:17.859
The sound, brilliant. The special effects, brilliant.

00:27:17.940 --> 00:27:22.200
The set design, brilliant. The only weak thing

00:27:22.200 --> 00:27:25.440
I could say. Is it, I wish it was more 50 -50

00:27:25.440 --> 00:27:27.980
The Creator's Tale, 50 -50 The Creation's Tale?

00:27:28.240 --> 00:27:34.059
Mm -hmm. Yeah. I gave it three and a half. I

00:27:34.059 --> 00:27:37.180
thought it was great. I did. You do realise you

00:27:37.180 --> 00:27:39.019
just give a movie that we didn't like two and

00:27:39.019 --> 00:27:44.359
a half. No, I did. Your score is so fucked. Like

00:27:44.359 --> 00:27:46.799
I said. I think we need to do it at ten. No.

00:27:46.940 --> 00:27:52.579
I didn't hate Mighty Supreme. I hated the character.

00:27:53.079 --> 00:27:56.680
The movie was well done. That's why it's right

00:27:56.680 --> 00:28:00.759
down the middle. But the movie last week was

00:28:00.759 --> 00:28:02.839
right down the middle. No, I gave it three last

00:28:02.839 --> 00:28:04.180
week. That's right down the middle. No, it's

00:28:04.180 --> 00:28:05.779
not. Two and a half is right down the middle.

00:28:06.319 --> 00:28:09.079
It was slightly above average last week. I reckon

00:28:09.079 --> 00:28:10.920
we should move it to ten stars. No. People, do

00:28:10.920 --> 00:28:12.259
you think we should go to ten stars? Comment

00:28:12.259 --> 00:28:13.779
down below. Let us know. We started on five.

00:28:13.859 --> 00:28:16.180
We can't go moving the fucking goalpost now.

00:28:16.279 --> 00:28:19.079
We can. No. Season two will go to ten stars.

00:28:19.160 --> 00:28:23.049
Ten stars, season two. No. Fuck, man. Why do

00:28:23.049 --> 00:28:26.869
I always get zicked on this? Zicked. Next. Because

00:28:26.869 --> 00:28:28.589
I think I came up with it and we're not changing

00:28:28.589 --> 00:28:31.529
it. I think it's shit, though. Five stars is

00:28:31.529 --> 00:28:34.849
terrible. That's not. Can we at least go .75s

00:28:34.849 --> 00:28:38.750
and shit and .9s? No. Fuck! It gives you something

00:28:38.750 --> 00:28:40.470
to work with. Yeah, okay. I'm going to give you

00:28:40.470 --> 00:28:42.230
something to work with. I want you to mute out

00:28:42.230 --> 00:28:43.569
every swear word that comes up on the show. No,

00:28:43.569 --> 00:28:45.369
that's not going to happen. Fuck you. Fuck you.

00:28:46.359 --> 00:28:49.539
This is something. The whole fucking show is

00:28:49.539 --> 00:28:54.920
like, Frankenstein. Frankenstein. Yeah, I thought

00:28:54.920 --> 00:28:57.559
it was a great show, but it was just like, I

00:28:57.559 --> 00:29:00.339
think the final cut was slightly disjointed.

00:29:00.519 --> 00:29:05.859
Yeah. And that's where Marty Supreme kind of

00:29:05.859 --> 00:29:07.519
flowed throughout the whole thing, even though

00:29:07.519 --> 00:29:12.519
I did not like the franticness of it, but it

00:29:12.519 --> 00:29:15.779
flowed. and it was well pieced together. This

00:29:15.779 --> 00:29:18.400
was kind of missing that. It was a good story,

00:29:18.480 --> 00:29:23.240
just wasn't kind of executed as well as I thought

00:29:23.240 --> 00:29:26.240
it should be. And then some of the pieces, the

00:29:26.240 --> 00:29:31.660
set pieces, either didn't look quite finished

00:29:31.660 --> 00:29:37.140
or they were, I don't know, it was missing a

00:29:37.140 --> 00:29:41.079
little bit of grit to it or some of them weren't.

00:29:41.500 --> 00:29:46.119
Some of it looked like a sci -fi movie or a -

00:29:46.119 --> 00:29:48.920
How else are you going to fucking convey someone's

00:29:48.920 --> 00:29:52.059
harnessing lightning to bring somebody back from

00:29:52.059 --> 00:29:56.640
the dead? No, that was good. That was good. How

00:29:56.640 --> 00:30:00.799
do I put it? It kind of looked like a CW. Thank

00:30:00.799 --> 00:30:05.759
you. You know how the CW was kind of like went

00:30:05.759 --> 00:30:09.079
dark but it was like really light in colours

00:30:09.079 --> 00:30:14.109
and you could see everything? The contrast needed

00:30:14.109 --> 00:30:15.970
to be pumped right up so there was a lot more

00:30:15.970 --> 00:30:18.849
darkness to hide some of the imperfections of

00:30:18.849 --> 00:30:23.670
some of the set pieces. It was like the brightness

00:30:23.670 --> 00:30:26.190
was turned up in it. Maybe it could have been

00:30:26.190 --> 00:30:29.630
your TV. I don't think it was. If you go into

00:30:29.630 --> 00:30:32.130
your TV settings, there's these settings called

00:30:32.130 --> 00:30:37.730
like… brightness settings and contrast settings

00:30:37.730 --> 00:30:39.230
and stuff. If you fuck around with that, you

00:30:39.230 --> 00:30:43.509
can make it look however you want. Mine's on

00:30:43.509 --> 00:30:48.549
default for every movie, so I don't. It just

00:30:48.549 --> 00:30:51.670
wasn't quite perfect. I'm going to say something

00:30:51.670 --> 00:30:53.089
to you and you're probably going to hate it.

00:30:53.910 --> 00:30:57.930
I agree. It was bright. Yeah. It was quite bright.

00:30:58.069 --> 00:31:00.109
Yeah. I mean, I don't hate you for saying that.

00:31:00.190 --> 00:31:02.690
But if you really resonated with this, I can

00:31:02.690 --> 00:31:04.329
understand why you like it a lot more than I

00:31:04.329 --> 00:31:08.569
do. I really loved it. I do agree with you. It

00:31:08.569 --> 00:31:11.730
was very bright. Even the shit, the scenes in

00:31:11.730 --> 00:31:15.829
the dark at night, that room was so well fucking

00:31:15.829 --> 00:31:18.490
lit, bro. Yeah. There was a lot of ambient light.

00:31:18.549 --> 00:31:20.589
Yeah. It probably shouldn't have been that well

00:31:20.589 --> 00:31:24.349
lit. Yeah, I don't know. I think. We watched

00:31:24.349 --> 00:31:27.769
a movie the other week and I said that the person

00:31:27.769 --> 00:31:30.470
used actual lighting for it. What movie was that?

00:31:30.670 --> 00:31:33.190
So they did that for Marrowbone and they did

00:31:33.190 --> 00:31:35.609
it for the movie we watched last week, which

00:31:35.609 --> 00:31:39.910
was Begonia. Begonia. I think if you use just

00:31:39.910 --> 00:31:42.509
natural light, candle light, he needed to be

00:31:42.509 --> 00:31:46.789
walking around with a candle more. I don't think

00:31:46.789 --> 00:31:48.569
I've ever seen him walking around with a fucking

00:31:48.569 --> 00:31:51.430
candle. It was like they had solar power or there

00:31:51.430 --> 00:31:54.549
was a Tesla plugged in down the shed. They had

00:31:54.549 --> 00:31:57.529
power. Yeah. There was no candles. There was

00:31:57.529 --> 00:31:59.970
no blah, blah, blah. There was nothing like vampires

00:31:59.970 --> 00:32:01.750
don't see, blah, blah, blah. There was nothing

00:32:01.750 --> 00:32:03.990
like that. Yeah, give me more shadow work. Yeah.

00:32:03.990 --> 00:32:09.430
Oi! Now we're talking. Watch Nosferatu. Look,

00:32:09.490 --> 00:32:11.369
I love, and that's the thing I love about the

00:32:11.369 --> 00:32:12.930
old black and grey movies, the old black and

00:32:12.930 --> 00:32:17.759
white movies. Werewolf by Night killed it with

00:32:17.759 --> 00:32:19.720
that. Yeah. Like the shadow playing that was

00:32:19.720 --> 00:32:22.720
sensational. I think that's what silver screen

00:32:22.720 --> 00:32:26.420
movies really, really, really aced. Yeah. 100%.

00:32:26.420 --> 00:32:29.680
But this movie, this movie I will watch again.

00:32:29.819 --> 00:32:32.180
Yeah. I will watch it again. I'll watch it again.

00:32:32.279 --> 00:32:36.359
Yeah. It was good. Yeah. Okay. Maybe it was a

00:32:36.359 --> 00:32:39.059
bit, maybe I was a bit. Heavy handed with the

00:32:39.059 --> 00:32:40.880
five stars. Let's go four and a half. We'll go

00:32:40.880 --> 00:32:43.900
four and a half. I can accept that. We'll get

00:32:43.900 --> 00:32:45.839
four and a half. Dollar back to four and a half.

00:32:45.880 --> 00:32:47.920
Cut that five. We'll get four and a half. No,

00:32:47.980 --> 00:32:50.240
we'll have this discussion and we'll get you

00:32:50.240 --> 00:32:54.079
back down there. It's fine. What? I'll maintain

00:32:54.079 --> 00:32:56.539
this discussion. You can say five and then we'll

00:32:56.539 --> 00:32:57.900
get back down to four and a half. Then it makes

00:32:57.900 --> 00:32:59.980
me look like a liar. No, it doesn't. No, it doesn't.

00:33:00.700 --> 00:33:08.799
Look, I don't know whether it was because of.

00:33:09.450 --> 00:33:13.609
my fucking fandom of Guillermo del Toro, but

00:33:13.609 --> 00:33:15.990
I think I looked at this with rose -coloured

00:33:15.990 --> 00:33:22.589
glasses a little bit. I really loved the concept

00:33:22.589 --> 00:33:28.579
that they did with the creature. Yeah. He was

00:33:28.579 --> 00:33:32.700
fantastic. And, like, even what a body brought

00:33:32.700 --> 00:33:35.980
to it with the hand movements. Yeah, it was always.

00:33:36.279 --> 00:33:38.119
Kind of interesting, like he wasn't comfortable

00:33:38.119 --> 00:33:40.920
in his own body. Every body part was doing its

00:33:40.920 --> 00:33:44.400
own little thing because it's just them little

00:33:44.400 --> 00:33:47.019
fucking nuances, them little touches that just

00:33:47.019 --> 00:33:49.640
elevate it and made it great. His dreams of dead

00:33:49.640 --> 00:33:51.839
men and not being comfortable in his own body.

00:33:51.920 --> 00:33:53.880
And they were always different dreams. Yeah.

00:33:54.319 --> 00:33:57.500
Fuck yeah. I really loved it. I can look past

00:33:57.500 --> 00:33:59.700
its imperfections and still really enjoy this

00:33:59.700 --> 00:34:03.799
movie. Yeah. Oh, dude, I'm the same with – there's

00:34:03.799 --> 00:34:06.039
movies that have lots of problems, like Ready

00:34:06.039 --> 00:34:08.300
Player One. I'll still watch Ready Player One

00:34:08.300 --> 00:34:12.340
every week. Even though there's so many glaring

00:34:12.340 --> 00:34:14.639
holes in it, there's so much – because I love

00:34:14.639 --> 00:34:18.000
the book so much, I find so many holes in it.

00:34:19.559 --> 00:34:21.699
I still watch it every week. I'd rather listen

00:34:21.699 --> 00:34:23.920
to that book once a week than watch the movie.

00:34:23.960 --> 00:34:33.079
100%. I do too, but 16 and a half hours or an

00:34:33.079 --> 00:34:37.719
hour and 45 minutes. Well, that's what I thought

00:34:37.719 --> 00:34:41.559
about Marty Supreme. Yep. Well, you got two for

00:34:41.559 --> 00:34:43.800
one this week. Oh, dude, I've been wanting to

00:34:43.800 --> 00:34:45.619
talk to you about Frankenstein since I watched

00:34:45.619 --> 00:34:49.849
it. Good. Fuck, dude. All right, guys. Thanks

00:34:49.849 --> 00:34:51.670
for joining us this week for Week in Review.

00:34:52.469 --> 00:34:55.050
Please like, comment, subscribe. Get into Jeremy's

00:34:55.050 --> 00:34:56.929
ears about the 10 -star system. I think we should

00:34:56.929 --> 00:35:00.449
really implement that coming into Season 2. We

00:35:00.449 --> 00:35:01.489
were actually talking about it earlier. We've

00:35:01.489 --> 00:35:02.949
got some big surprises coming for Season 2, so

00:35:02.949 --> 00:35:04.570
everybody tune in. It's going to be fun as shit.

00:35:04.949 --> 00:35:06.309
Love, peace, chicken grease. Bye.
