Welcome to A Little Unscripted, the show where
we pull a random title, spin a random genre,
and then try to create a film that honestly shouldn't
work and is impossible. It is way too expensive.
And no one's asking for. But that's the fun.
One idea. One hour. And zero guarantees. Let's
make this thing. Good day, everybody. And hello.
I'm Ryan. I'm Logan. And no matter what, we're
going to make a movie today. We're definitely
doing it. We're doing it. Hey, Logan. How are
you doing today? I am reminiscing about our last
movie. Yep. Our inaugural movie. The first. So
do you have thoughts on Whistle While You Panic?
Have you had time to think about that? I did
think about it slightly over the week. I'll be
honest. I want one recasting. And so we should
maybe have a little bit of a, would you do over
a portion? Would you, are you okay with that?
Yeah. Yeah. If we want to do a do over here,
I think here's the time to do it. Do you want
to do a do over a little bit? Well, I hadn't
really had many. Okay. So I'm intrigued. You
were hyped on it. I have one. I have one gripe
afterwards. It was one of my suggestions. It's
not that I dislike it. I just think there's a
better choice, but I don't know what it is yet.
Okay. So I suggested that the male politician
in this story would be Paul Rudd because I think
he'd be a fun straight man. But I think that
we need somebody else. As fun as a straight man
as he would be, I think the story is asking for
somebody else. Roger Clinton. Ooh. Who is Roger
Clinton? Give me a refresher. Bill Clinton's
brother. Bill Clinton's brother. And an actor
featured prominently in the movie Fred Claus
about... Really? Is he really? I'm kind of not
kidding now. I think that would be funny. That
would be kind of funny. It would be ridiculous.
It would be insane. And it would, we kind of,
but we talked about having a real politician.
Yeah. What if you, because, okay, this is big
pie in the sky. And this individual is in the
space of movies. But what if you ask Barack Obama
to do it? Or better yet, Michelle Obama. We ask
Michelle Obama to be our lead. Because they're
producing for Netflix. Okay. They are. They've
done documentary. I'd go full in on Michelle
Obama on that one. Michelle Obama. All right.
That would be really fun. I just think we still
need a male dynamic to it. Yeah, or Barack Obama.
Could you imagine having Barack Obama play against
type where he's somehow this drill sergeant -esque
character? He doesn't have to be like Luther,
the anger translator, but have this really hard,
serious tone because that would be funny. Like
same voice, but just he ends every sentence with
a hard period. No, no, it's not an ask, it's
I'm telling. It's an underrated voice. That would
be really interesting. I could definitely see
it. It would be so fun to see. That's a good
do -over. I don't mind the original, but I like
asking Barack Obama to do it. I have one other
suggestion, not to say that Barack Obama couldn't
do it, or Michelle. Both could do it. Off the
top of the dome, I think only because I don't
think Clint would do it. Jesse Ventura? No, I
was thinking Scott Eastwood would be a fun one.
Yeah, I think he'd be really fun. I think you're
liking Younger. You're feeling it. You're right.
You're right. Only because Michelle Pfeiffer
is our other like, you know, big name as the
other politicians. So I think the story would
dictate that if like we need to have like this
generational gap anyway, because like that's
half the story. Right. Yeah. We got all these
young interns and administrators running around
chaos and drug dealers and all this fun stuff.
Our villain, Zazie Beetz's villain. I've been
obsessing over that little snooker. I really
want to make this movie. For a long time. But
if I may, I am so excited that that movie was
catapulted by your tagline. Ooh, yeah. You said
it. You're like, I have this. And this is from
a friend. And I know that that's kind of a rare
magic. Yeah, it felt magical. How many times
are we going to be able to use that little bit
from your six demon bag? Somewhere deep in the
reserves. Right. That's a Big Trouble in Little
China reference for you. If you got it, you got
it. But, I mean, have you told your friend about
any of this? I'm just kind of curious. He and
I haven't talked in a long time. And it's not
like I avoid him. What did you do? Nothing. He
lives a wild and free lifestyle where you're
just like, hey, I'll get a hold of you. And then
you shoot a message and it's like three months
later, maybe you'd be like, oh, how you doing?
You're like, okay. May I make a suggestion? Yeah.
Can you, I suggest you text him. Have you tried
panicking? Oh yeah. He would definitely respond
to that. And then just, just that's it. Yeah.
I'm sure he would respond to that. I'm sure of
it. What do you think? And maybe I asked this
previously, but I don't care. It's my decaying
mind. Everybody's got one. What do you think
he would think of this whole thing and being
brought in? Honestly. I think he'd be all right
with it. Cause I remember when we used to work
together, we were doing essentially this. It's
just like, all right, you want to make a movie?
Let's make, it's like, or, you know, obviously
the easy ones always like seven ways of Kevin
Bacon. He and I were always sure. But instead
of seven ways of Kevin Bacon, we'd always cheat
it. And I would try and we would try and select
different actors and see if we could do it in
seven steps or less. Cause I think that's a tougher
ask than being, let's get to Kevin Bacon. It's
like, Oh yeah. So the game, we morphed it really
into, hey could you link i don't know like danny
devito to uh samara weaving that's fun and how
many steps could you do it in that's fun and
then like obviously sometimes you don't think
about it's like one time i had done uh i'd asked
a guy he's like how about steve martin to uh
ashton kutcher right and you're like how fast
could you do it and our our early game uh in
in movie life and this was in the 90s when i
worked i had the best job in my life the video
store And it was pre -DVD. It was VHS. That vinyl
smell. You know, you have to say the number of
the VHS you want and rewind and late fees. But
we had the privilege of movie posters and the
stand -ups, the cardboard stand -ups I miss a
lot. I understand you could probably order them
online, but over the years, like, I had a Pretty
Woman stand -up in my bedroom for a long time
just because I could have it. Um, my most cherished
one was a men at work standup. Do you remember
that? Yeah. And, um, it was just cool, but we
would, um, have fun with the movie titles, you
know, and, and replace keywords. Oh yeah. And,
but cause you're just, that's all you're looking
at. You know, once a year or twice a year, you'd
have to dust. You'd literally dust all the boxes.
Yeah. And there was an adult section in the back,
which constituted probably 70 % of the revenue.
What? So, pinnacle times. Making people make
money. Pinnacle times. I was there. The Pamela
Lee, Tommy Anderson VHS drop. The Harding Galooly
drop. Do you remember the Tanya Harding sex tape?
Oh, that was, like, I was a child. And then all
the parodies were there, but we just were able
to have fun with the posters, and I just, I remember
making my early movie choices by poster. That's
how, it's like the cereal box. Yeah, oh, yeah.
This is how you're supposed to pick stuff, right?
Yeah. We are visual beings. And it was marketing,
but I didn't look at it that way. No, it's art.
The Evil Dead 2 cover was still the sickest thing
ever. i never realized that you know the texas
chainsaw massacre 2 the way they're grouped was
an homage to the breakfast club but like i did
what oh yeah really yeah that's an intentional
homage if you look the same you know poster but
um you know i always went for the gnarly you
know the bloodier and gorier the better you know
they're hand drawn you know or there is something
to be said about missing out on like having somebody
be like hey here's the back paragraph premise
of a movie could you make the and also here's
the stars and here's all their faces could you
make a poster on this or like any style or variation
and they're like yeah yeah i could do that and
some of them like the minimalist ones are always
fun but the ones that have like full -on art
yeah and it's like with that with album art oh
yeah the the as i understand it recently the
original star wars a new hope artwork went for
almost four million dollars at auction are we
surprised but You know, you look at the full
piece and the iconic bit, you know, with Luke
is only in this corner. Yeah. And they've over
the years, they took parts of it, but it's large
and it's gorgeous. Some of the colors, you know,
I mean, it's fucking stunning. It really is.
Yeah. It's his own artwork. Four million. I mean,
it feels when you have. Jeep. Fuck you money.
I mean, that feels reasonable. Yeah. Yeah. When
you have, when you can just be like. Honey, Sotheby's
.com. You know what it is in somebody's private
theater collection. Somebody over here is like,
don't go over five. You're like, fine. I'm surprised
it only stopped at four. Let's be real here.
It's nice to fantasize, is it not? I'm surprised
it said million and not billion. I'll be real
with you. Thank you. I agree. I could definitely
see it happening. And forgive me, I don't know
the dimensions. Maybe it's like this. I'm not
sure. I'm sure. It's a regular movie size poster.
Speaking of inspiration, are you inspired to
make a movie today? I'm inspired. Are we okay
reminding of the rules of this engagement? Before
we do that, so Scott Eastman's our guy then?
Is that what it is? In our redux of recasting?
Do you want to solidify that? Everybody that's
hearing this? Logan does not. Fuck. around. I
just want to make sure we close this loop because
otherwise we rant it for a bit and then it's
otherwise because otherwise we just ranted and
jumped into it. I want to close that loop. So
I'm Scott Eastwood. Yep. We were musing on other
things and I was musing on the age difference
and like you wanted youth. You wanted that youth.
I think that part's got to be in there because
also him just being a straight -laced kind of
guy while she's the cokehead or the prostitute
sleeping. In the world of movies, I don't know
that I've seen a lot of his filmography and in
the world specifically of Fast and Furious, he
kind of popped in as the pseudo... brian character
you know yeah and and you can't replace the paul
walker vin diesel dynamic but i don't know why
that didn't succeed but he kind of was playing
the straight person and his introduction side
note with uh you know patron human in my life
kurt russell was it was good like i liked him
playing the straight dynamic and i was like you
shit the bed yep now i gotta get it done I think
they were going to reveal him as father and son.
Oh, for sure. Paul Walker was also a long -lost...
Adopted child. We're making movies. We're making
movies. We're making movies that exist already.
We're getting too drunk on our own power already.
So as a reminder, in the hour that we have on
this show, in addition to the great stuff that
we just gave you, we must complete... A movie
that has a randomly generated title and genre.
It must have a plot to conclusion. And I think
episode one, we solidified that. Yeah, we got
it somewhere. We had a few minutes to spare too.
That was pretty cool. We definitely had a few.
We need to have a character. Now it's early.
You can change things if you want, but a character.
I think a character. Last time we had a lot of
characters. I don't know if we ever gave any
names to our characters, but they did exist.
Do we need a name for our characters? Well, I
think that may have been some things that, no,
we didn't know previously, but are good for extras.
So bonus points for character names. A director.
A director. Or multiples, as we said. Yes. Daniel's
our team. That's right. And a tagline. Yeah,
a tagline. Which was the genus of the previous
film. Have you tried panicking? That's great.
I do love it. I've used it in my everyday life.
It's always fun because anytime you're missing,
like if you lost your keys and you're significant
others are like scrambling. Have you thought
about the poster? Ooh. For some reason, I'm imagining
the color yellow as a dominant color. I don't
know why. I would love hyper -realistic photos
of various people in the cast panicking. Oh,
just everybody freaking out. You know what I
mean? Like in a collage way. but hyper realistic,
like almost unflattering and ugly. Yeah. You
know, like Vanity Fair style. Yeah. Like that
realism. Yeah. Ready. See your pores. Like everybody's
almost too close. Oh, like your O face, but your
P face, your panic face. Have you tried panicking?
What's your P face? That's a vastly different
movie. What's your P face? Hey Patrick, what's
your P face? All right. Well, we're going to
generate... So you have our genres and I have
our... So I'm going to ask for our numbers and
we're not going to repeat titles. Hold on. Should
we do just the title first, see what the title
is, and then we'll see what genre it gives us
and see if we have anything before we get to
the genre? All right. Well, our number is 58.
All right. So this is for the title. And this
is the title. The Last Known Location. The last
known location? Yeah, the last known location.
I feel like I should write that down somewhere.
I feel like that's not an actual title, but that's
fascinating. I feel like it had to have been
a working title. The last known location. I always
want to skip the, but the is always an important
part. It's in there, yeah. All right. Obviously,
without any prompts of genre, I kind of have
a feeling of what I want. Oh, that's interesting.
But I don't want to be biased because that's
going to... I want it to be a raunchy, R -rated
teen sex comedy about finding the G -spot. Oh,
my. The last known location. And it's about a
girl or guy who supposedly doesn't have one.
Oh. That's childish. I'm upset with myself. That's
a little wild. I don't think anybody's going
to produce that one. I've taken it too far. That
was a little too far, I think. You didn't say
it had to be totally producible. Yeah, that's
true. We did not require that. Names, and then
we can go back to say some of the extra things
that we want to do. Composer, writer, locations,
and then again, character names would be great.
All right. We're counting those ones as our bonuses,
right? Genre. All right. Let's hear the genre.
12. Genre 12. Oh, so close to the last one. All
right. So the genre 12 here is romance. Last
known location, the romance. Interesting. Okay.
Romance. The last known location. I have. So
my original. A missed opportunity type of thing.
I could see that. I could definitely see that
playing out into this. So my idea before we got
romance was. It felt like a thriller, like somebody
lost in the woods, obviously. Right. But we could
still run that, I think, with a romance of like
an adventure film. Okay. Let's get basic. What
is your idea of a romance film? And what's the
best one that isn't of the stone? Ooh. I don't
know. I don't know of like specifically what
makes the best romance movie. That's a tough
ask because that's very subjective, right? Like
anybody can be different. Can we give ourselves,
let ourselves off the hook for a second and say
it may not be a genre that we're very familiar
with? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think we could definitely
say that. We're not the demographic. That is
what makes this. I think what's fun is we can
make ourselves the demographic. There's no reason
you can't make a romance. A romantic comedy,
I know what that is, but why can't I easily tell
you what a romance movie is? Is Tyler Perry involved?
I think, mostly. Do you need Sandra Bullock to
be in there? Is she the special? Always. Immediately
any romance movie. I bet. Here's that easily
pitchable movie. It's called The Last Known Location.
We've got Sandra Bullock on board. Good. Tagline,
I've tried panicking. Yeah. So, well, most of
mine, I guess, are attuned, but I think of the
kind of, and that's more erotic thrill, but romantic
thrillers of the time. Okay. Like American Beauty.
I think about the big chill romance, but that's...
I mean... Romance. An American president. Yeah.
An American president. It's a romance because
it's the president romancing, you know, vice
versa. Okay. So it happens to me. I'm listening.
I'm trying to hear it. I'm trying to picture
this. And then, well, okay, silly. You can go
back to the 50s, you know, any Cary Grant film.
Okay, what am I doing? There's a lot of romance
there. Could be a period piece. Could be a period
piece. So it's Sandra Bullock. in a period piece.
Oh, you're already casting Sandra Bullock. I'm
obsessed already. Sandy B is going to be in this
movie. I love it. The last known location as
a romance, the 50s, the 60s, we were just talking
about the vibrancy of that kind of thing, is
a 50s style romance. Interesting. Set against
any kind of background. What's more modern? What's
in, not to say too much, but what's in your genre
in the world of romance? What's hard? What's
fun? What's interesting as a younger person?
Well, I think. That you haven't seen. Yeah. That
you're not looking at or looking for. With the
title. I think with the title, just last known
location, I think it has to be somebody like
went on vacation somewhere exotic. I think it's
a destination piece more than a period piece.
Oh, you like destination? I think it's going
to be a destination piece. Only because in my
head percolating right now is the idea of like,
this person's like, I'm going to go somewhere
and find myself. I like the missed opportunity
thing. Like we saw, oh, how about like that,
that person you meet on vacation that you're
obsessed with? Yeah. And what about like the
person who's going to try, like I vacation here
somewhere. I was eight, like eighth grade, ninth
grade. That was the love of my life. I'm going
to find them again. I mean, there's a real life
story of like this. couple who ended up married
and turns out they're in their family photos
together. They were at the same statue somewhere.
It's a legit story. They were looking at old
family photos and the one person was like, hey,
I know that. And they pull it up and there's
their significant other. Do you have this in
your life? I have it. I have the one that got
away in my life from Florida. I have a vague
outline of her on a Super 8. VHS. I met her in
Naples, Florida and I was in love with her. I
was too afraid to take a moonlit walk to get
a kiss. But she had bangs up to here. She had
a voice. All I have is a voice and bangs. Is
our romance much like Titanic? It's a throwback.
You're telling the story of your lost opportunity
and this was the last known location. The last
known location in the missed opportunity thing
is fun. Somebody who's frustrated with everything
and they've been obsessed over this one person
that they met in third grade on vacation. They're
convinced that's the one and I'm going to track
them down. Is that terrible? No, I don't think
that's terrible. Again, Romance. The idea is
how do you sell it so that you're not a stalker?
That's the fun of the movie. That's the fun of
the movie. But like, yeah. How do you sell it
like you're not a freak? What kind of things,
you know, are happening? What kind of things
precipitate you, you know, befall them? It's
kind of like the something about Mary bit. Yeah.
Like, oh, yeah, I've checked in on her. It's
not good. So many failed opportunities. You don't
know the name of the housing project or whatever.
And he's like, no, I think I'm fine. That kind
of thing. Yeah, that's what you're thinking.
Okay. Potentially. Potentially. Brett Favre shows
up somewhere along the way. So, okay, you see
the last known location. You feel tropical vacation.
I don't know tropical, but definitely exotic.
Exotic. Destination, exotic, somewhere different.
What's the best movie in an exotic location?
That's not a stumper of all time. Really? It's
Joe versus the volcano. There's only one answer.
I don't know. You could argue Jurassic Park.
I don't know. Ooh, touche. But this isn't a sci
-fi romance. I think it's more exciting to make
it practical because that's challenging to me.
It's clearly challenging to us. Yeah, I think
this is where the challenge definitely is in
making this about romance. But what is the last
known location? Is it as simple as meeting at
a bar? Like a missed opportunity? I keep saying
the same thing, which is just frustrating. for
some reason you remember the movie the rundown
I love that movie yeah all right so what if it's
more like foreign this person like they left
like it's a missed opportunity like they were
friends or lovers previously and somebody left
to pursue their career gerard butler movie no
the rundown no no no i'm saying that there is
a movie with gerard butler and jennifer aniston
when he's like a bail bondsman yeah he picks
her up yeah that's a cool is that where you're
going or no no that was not where i was okay
go but the idea the idea was more like they were
friends or lovers of some sort yeah have to have
a past of some kind yeah of course because otherwise
how do we rekindle the love and last known location
and could easily be like hey wait this is the
last time i saw you was at this place so they're
legit retracing their footsteps and could potentially
be reliving their like favorite moments with
this person yeah Or I could also see it as a
Titanic kind of ask piece where like you're retelling
your lost love as like before you die, which
could be really fun. Cause I mean, Titanic is
the romance movie of all romance movies. Is it
maybe fun where you have this meeting and, and
the person's trying to find this person through
a series of like retracing their steps. Cause
they don't know. Could be. I mean. Or on a grander
scale. The other. All right. the other thing
that my brain just came up with like what if
it is kind of the titanic approach okay but it's
like the grandparents like they did find their
connection but now like this family member of
theirs is going through their photos and they
are like what if i also go on this grand adventure
or maybe i find somebody along the way and it
kind of parallels their grandparents story yeah
i could see that also playing out all right say
more about that say more all right uh I don't
know. Let's see. You want to do the period piece
so you could easily do like South America is
easy to have as an exotic location. It's never.
so is this this is serious yeah i think you play
it as a serious kind of story where like this
person we can make it fun where it's an anthropologist
is going down to study tribes south america yeah
like you could do that they stumble across i
don't know somebody in a party of some sort and
they fall in love and then these are the older
people that we meet who are retelling their story
to like somebody and who's like they stumbled
on like a shoebox for the photos so there's there's
a grandchild who literally wants to follow in
their exact footsteps and or go to the same place
yeah i want to do the same thing yeah and they're
like it's different now uh -huh but it's somewhere
along the way it's like this is the last one
known location that's a great that's a great
setup is it a peace corps type of thing is it
a it could just be like i think the theme is
more this person's trying to find because the
modern world like we are really i think modern
society is a society trying to figure out what
next there's no more exploration on the planet
like in the sense of like oh i can just kind
of stick out my thumb and i can go to the west
coast because you know we're all terrified now
and hitchhiking's dangerous and like the world
of yesteryear doesn't exist so people are like
i crawled to a black box and that's this is kind
of pressure into my you know life personally
is going out there and finding real connections
yeah but under the like so this journey has to
they want it They want to take a grandparent's
journey, which is a bit of an adventure. It's
unique. It still exists, but it's a little changed.
She's getting, she, anyway, getting guidance
from these people and something unexpected happens,
you know, needs to happen along the way. But
I love, I don't know why I keep going into the
Peace Corps, but something that's, that's giving,
you know, maybe that's something that's an adventure.
It's teaching somewhere. It's like going. To
South America, like you said, not for a corny
reason. And then something unexpected happening.
Maybe it helps the grandparents reconnect with
somebody that they left behind too. So there's
a piece missing from their lives that this also
helps connect. Does there need to be war? Does
there need to be anything really heavy going
on in this place? I think you could definitely
have those themes playing in the background and
have them show up. I think you could definitely
have like in my head immediately. I would, I
don't know why it was like a border crossing
of some sort. Cause I mean, things are volatile
no matter where you go. Yeah. I mean, so the
idea is that this thing is a little dangerous.
Yeah. I think danger has to be. In grandparents
time and in this time. I think so. And that's
what's, what's, you know, they're secretly proud,
but maybe due to parents have to be a bit discouraging.
Yeah. So you can have those like bad -ass. character
actor grandparents or maybe major whatever um
who are are fueling this thing and are kind of
conflicted but because the only way now um the
idea the main motivator of this character is
to find romance yeah i think so you can put this
person age -wise there's maybe some flexibility
yeah i don't think you have to make them too
young like you can't be you could be like college
age too old either i mean it could be it feels
like it could be any because it's a relatable
premise yeah and to have to try to check out
get out of dating apps or whatever but to have
to follow this really unique path like you i'm
gonna do exactly what you did yeah and it's it
precipitates this dangerous type of job study
type. Yeah. That's the, that's the general setup.
Does, does, I mean, does it help you to think
about, um, you know, we figure some unexpected
along the way, does this person find love, find
whatever they're looking for? Do you think to
resolution, does that help us frame this a little
bit? And what does the last known location have
to do with? It'd be interesting if like some
sort of disaster befells them whilst they're
on their peace corps thing. And that's why they're
in their last known location. Could it be something
that somebody was always looking for that they
found or that doesn't exist? You're talking like
somehow like it's an ancient artifact. And she
helps bring it back. You know, like something
that, you know, it doesn't exist yet. We were
looking. Somehow this person's grandparents are
like both Indiana Jones, only somehow they failed
to recover the artifact and they got lost in
the jungle and they recover it. Like, yeah, that
sounds awesome. I want to make that movie. Can
we do that? Yeah. And make it a romance. Is this
Indiana Jones 7? No. Where are the Nazis hiding?
Christoph Waltz, where are you? I mean, let's
be real. This is the kind of thing that would
definitely... This would 100 % sell the romance
movie to the target audience of men 18 to 60.
Well, that means adventure. I think it has to
be an adventure romance, right? I think some...
it maybe it says too much but is that actually
a genre already on our list adventure romance
is adventure romance let me press let me press
and say like let's let's try to keep it straight
romance straight romance we don't have to talk
like all right straight straight romance then
is they end up going somewhere so exotic that
like they don't have cell service or anything
like that and their job is necessitating them
and it's like They're balancing their work -life
balance between romance and the real world. And
along the way, they're going to discover that
what they actually want is the realest thing
is not the real world. Yeah, exactly. So in a
modern sense, it's the same kind of premise.
But if we're using Sandra Bullock as our stand
-in, easily it's like she's going to Fiji. As
the main character looking for love? Yeah, 100%.
That's way... She's an author. She wrote a great
New York Times bestseller. About travel, but
she's never traveled. No, no, it's not about
travel. This is like Nim's Island. No, I think
it's more like she wrote a great story and it
was awesome. And then she did all the publicity
and then things kind of just fell behind. And
she got lost up in the minutia of life and just
never really found her romance. And so she's
like, you know what? I'm going to go on vacation
and I'm going to live the wild dreams that I
always thought of having. But the earlier tie
-in of following grandma and grandpa, that's
compelling. It is very compelling. And Sandra
Bullock's grandparents are, I think, not with
us anymore. It's a movie. So it might have to
have a younger person. No, no. We can still do
it. I think the premise still can run. It makes
casting interesting. But that's magical realism.
All right. So Sandra Bullock's the main character.
I don't know if she has to be the main character,
but that was the one we were kind of tied to.
It's a romance. It's a romance. Interesting.
Typically, not to ask a dumb question, but there
was a romance movie in the TV just outside our
door. Love Actually, and I don't really know
much about it. Is that about multiple? We may
be too far in to start to do multiple romance
angles. I think to do it, if we're going to keep
the promise. Isn't it usually one character looking
for some kind of love and connection? If we're
going to do it, I think then this premise that
I've come up with like of the grandparents, then
I think the idea is Sandra Bullock finds a shoebox
full of like these old photos and this drives
her to a venture and just like it's something
that she's never seen in the world before. And
this is where she was. Do you like the idea of
connecting with somebody she met like on in that
place forever ago? I like the idea of more like
the lost love on vacation. I. I actually like
the idea more of, like, she stumbles into somebody
new being driven by, like, her grandparents,
like, their story. And then the story ends with,
like, you know, her last known location. Like,
they start sailing the world or some grand adventure,
you know. Like, that's what the last, like, her
thing is. Like, she leaves the cell phone behind.
Because there is no final location. That's just
her last place. Her last known location. It's
either that or we end it with they die. I would
love to follow the grandparents' journey via
the thing. I think so as well. I think the idea
is we play it through the photos. Because I've
tried everything. I've tried everything. I'm
going to do what you did. And they're like, I
don't know. We don't necessarily need the grandparents
to be alive for her story to progress. It could
be because she's an older lady. that's fine.
And her grandparents would be like a hundred,
let's say, just to say as an old age. Maybe it
helps you to cast the grandparents to get you
excited. Well, I'm thinking if we're doing it,
you get like, obviously we get the foes. Diane
Wiest. Okay. And? John Goodman. My brain says
John Cena. John Cena. Oh, wait. Wait. Okay. We're
dummies. We're dummies because we have the magic
of Hollywood. Okay, wait. It's Gary Oldman. Uh
-huh. No. Oh, shoot. I was going to say, this
doesn't work. Maybe a repairing of a classic
care. Okay. Like a classic pair of actors. Ooh.
Together. Older. Older. Or make them up. Or make
them up. Okay. Well. What if it's. Oh. All right.
What if it's a gay couple? Uh -huh. And it's
Geena Davis and Susan Sarandon. Coming back from
Thelma and Louise. And that, those are her grandparents.
Those are her grandparents. Okay. And she's going
to recreate the road trip of a lifetime. You
wouldn't want to miss it for the world. That
would be so interesting. We may have time to
digress. We were just talking about a movie lover's
movie. All right. I'm thinking. And it's just
casting. All right. When you cast like a pair.
I don't think we cast. I'm not going to worry
about who the older versions of the grandparents
are. Yeah. I don't think that that part is too
concerning right now. I think right now. the
story that we tell through the flashbacks of
the grandparents through like the photos of like
sandra b going to these places is like her seeing
the photos obviously like hey look my grandpa
was here grandma was here you know that kind
of thing but i think for uh grandpa i want uh
daniel radcliffe in flashbacks yeah yeah like
or an actual old man makeup in flashbacks like
if we're gonna kind of tell their story of how
they met as well he can kill yeah that's what
i'm saying like and also uh And Emma Watson,
we talked about her last. There we go. But also,
he gets the nostalgia for the childhood generation
of mine. But also, he's still a teenage heartthrob.
And he's weird out. And he's weird out. And also,
he just wants to do everything, so I feel like
he'd be down for a wild romance. He's been in
some adventurous style movies, like Journey and
Hero's Journey movies. Is this like a Hero's
Journey type of thing that bumps into a romance?
Yeah. I like the idea about it being scary for
Sandra. Do you think? Well, yeah. Her character's
going into the unknown. Maybe she's getting out
of a relationship or something like that. Who
knows? dominating traits about this character.
You said possibly somebody who writes, maybe
writes about adventure, knew about it through
grandparents, but has never done it. And so the
irony is that you've just never been anywhere.
And it's like, yeah, well, I went to Tahiti one
time. Yeah, I think that's exactly kind of what
it is. It was a writer's retreat and you did
yoga nine hours a day. A hundred percent. That's
who this person is. So I like the idea of being
pushed to do something hard. I think this would
be a fun story. Who is going to fall in love
with Sandra Bee when she shows up? Who is it
going to be? Who do you want? Well, here's the
thing. Anybody in the world could fall in love
with Sandra Bullock, right? Well, yeah, of course.
Even an introverted not neurotic do you see her
as neurotic like maybe has a severe something
severe because when we didn't say comedy this
is a romance so you can have elements well here's
an interesting question how much comedy and how
much drama do you balance in a romance and a
true because romance doesn't have to mean like
it's you know steamy could i answer your question
yeah with a question yeah do you think her character
is potentially terminal and this is like her
hurrah like something's happening breast cancer
to brain cancer something something oh and that's
like a reveal at some point yeah like she's going
to be like hey i need to do this thing but along
the way she also finds that's a reference to
her cancer yeah it's last known location oh my
stomach hurts that that puts a whole new spin
on it but i didn't i'm into that i'm in the other
end of it i did think of who i would want to
be her uh romantic lead I think it would be really
fun. I don't know if he would do it, but I think
Pierce Bronson would be great. Pierce Brosnan?
Yeah. Yeah. I think he'd be great. I think he's
way old. I think it'd be fun to do. I don't know
why. We have the magic of movies from like any
time. Her grandparents are British. Her love
interest is British. Are you affected by love
actually? No, I just, no, no. I was more thinking,
uh, do you remember the movie after sunset? Hell
yeah. Yeah. That's more what I was thinking.
And also Pierce Bronson. Um, okay. So let me
ask you this. That is a, if we're being like
douchebag marketers, that's a great demographic.
Like a movie like that comes out. Um, I think
I'm interested if it's written well and there's
the, the key is going to be the locations. I
think it's the travels exotic. Um, you know,
Pierce Brosnan in the Matador. I haven't seen
it. It's transcendent. Okay. And, and the whole
thing is, is the location. It's so unique and
it's so unique and it's, it's exotic. But, um,
knowing that. it's the end of her life is so
last known location like yeah she finds romance
and like the real world is calling her back to
be like hey we're like we got this we need these
last touch -ups for this thing and she's just
like Hey, I happen to find somebody I love with
and I'd rather die here in paradise. I love the
idea of maybe if we can add an element of her
doing something for her grandparents that they
never could do. It's maybe like what if she travels
a mountain? Rebuilt the bar that they met in
somewhere or like honor them somehow or like
help to complete something. I could see that.
Delivering something to a friend because If it's
just like her finding love before she dies. Yeah.
Which is cool. Doesn't really get to tell. And
like fulfills what she's been writing about and
has. But maybe if there is a little bit of glimmer
at the end. Is that too sappy? No, I think that's
right on key. That's actually like, that's kind
of what romance is, right? And here's the thing.
This has so many casting opportunities. Yeah.
I think there can be a laugh or two. uh and the
idea of like if the i mean if the title is related
to her whatever is killing her that's insane
yeah that's insane that would be so beautifully
heartbreaking in a way tying you can tie like
the yeah the the poster to your lungs oh my i'm
sorry it would be great Last known location,
it's an x -ray of her cancer tumor, but it's
also like an island. It's like the map. Yeah,
it would be so... That sounds like the poster.
Can we make that the poster? I love that. Oh,
no. I have a quick recast already. Pierce is
great. Yeah, okay. But I think we need to go
with somebody else. So how about Oscar Isaac?
Oh, boy. Gravitas. Right? also dying accidentally
no no i don't think we have him also we have
two i don't think we could have two two dying
folks fall in love in paradise are you looking
for what would this character naturally who this
person would probably gravitate to uh well i
don't know would it be would she be gravitated
to a strong bold adventurous that's kind of what
you'd think or um you know along the way whatever
precipitates them meeting each other along the
way um is it somebody that is more mild is more
is that more fun i definitely think it's the
first and i think it's more like he's her local
tour guide or something to that effect interesting
like like maybe she was supposed to meet up with
a friend of like her grandparents or somebody
like that that effect like hey we couldn't do
it but like here's my other friend and like we
have this serendipitous like you know first meet
heartthrob but like nobody believes that either
of them are actually in love and neither do they
because it helps to to wonder what the energy
of that character is yeah you know to to figure
it out i really want sandy b to be surprised
when she opens the door like he's standing with
his back to the door i would like to see him
um Yeah, I'm in. But it may be. So we've seen
him in so many different ways. We've seen ex
machina. Yeah. Bald. I want him with a beautiful
mustache. Beautiful mustache. I don't know why.
Okay. Is he South American? I don't know if it
has to be South American, but he's also just
a beautiful man. What about like if we took the
surfer dude or like a long hair. You know, a
lived in look is what I'm saying. I feel like
he's so. He's a van life. He's a van life. I'm
just saying. He's always so quaffed. I would
like to really see him. He does always have some
dignity to him. To take a little bit of the cork
out of his buttocks. Uh huh. And let it. And
just. You want him to be. Chris Pine it. You
want him to become Matthew McConaughey. Yes.
That's where you want him to have like a dash
of McConaughey. I want Sandy and McConaughey
back together again via Oscar Isaac. Okay. So
I want to sit down Oscar and be like Oscar. I
want you to be a server, bro. I even like Sucker
Punch. Sucker Punch. Yeah. Yeah. Together. The
mustache, everything. Yeah. I loved it. I really
did. Everything's cool. Do your best, McConaughey.
Six pack and all. he could do that he would be
so fun he was even shredded in that x -men movie
apocalypse and he probably didn't i think i think
uh oh it would be a great you've seen mojave
no you've told me about this and i've heard uh
multiple times from you that i need to watch
it maybe approximates this look in that okay
uh and if i'm wrong forgive me anybody listening
to that but I love the idea of him being a little
relaxed, maybe. Okay. I think she'd be drawn
to somebody who relaxes her. Yeah. So maybe strong,
like I like the vagabond thing. Yeah, definitely.
But relaxed. So let somebody like him try something
a little different. He could bring a little bit
of the humor. Maybe he's aspiring to be a writer.
So like they're drawn together because she helps
him a little bit. Maybe she realizes his story
is a really fun story. Along the way, she's financing
herself by doing writing workshops or something.
Okay. Maybe that's a little bit too. But maybe
writing connects them. Maybe. I think the idea
is that as it gets going and they start falling
in love here, she realizes that he actually has
a very fun story. And it was like, you should
write this story. And maybe that's one of the
things she helps him do. Yeah, and that's how
they bond. And he's able to express a little
bit more cleverness and depth. I think we're
finding it. I think we're finding the story.
This sounds fun. So is it modern? Are we talking
like she gets on an airplane and goes to like
someplace? Yeah, I like the idea of like recreating
these things, but in today's terms. So that gives
tons of like... We get to do kind of two movies.
You get to do a period piece with Daniel Radcliffe.
With your flashbacks. Daniel Radcliffe. And you
still want Emma Watson as the... I think that's
fun. And again, you could give her qualities
and this may be too much minutia. um that allow
her to be like what's not harry potter yeah hermione
yeah they you know daniel radcliffe has done
a great job of shedding his role i think she
did a great job of like getting out of acting
for a while which is fine nothing wrong with
that yeah but yeah for sure she needs to have
a role that's like Not that she hasn't done it,
just the few that she has done is not enough,
I think, for her to shed that role for this generation.
Forever and always, unfortunately. I still believe
Daniel Radcliffe did just a genius. I just wonder
how many times he listened to advice and how
many times he said, fucking, I'm doing it. I
think the second one was a lot. It's just fascinating
to me. But I hope a lot of the advice was like,
yeah, you're right, I should go do that. I can't
imagine what... I mean, you look at it from the
outside like... All right, here is an idea. Equus
and horns. Honestly, I mean, I get on paper they're
the most extreme things you could do, but holy
cow, right? Yeah. All right, so the idea of you
have Act 1 is introducing us to Sandy's character.
Do you have a name that kind of pops into mind?
For our character? I mean, just while we're in
the moment, we have a little bit of time here.
We've got 27 minutes or so. So does a character
name, I'm not that familiar with all of her character
names. I'm not familiar with all of her character
names either, and I'm not too, this is why even
I write, I'm like, I don't really care too much
about the character name, but the character name
is also the most important thing ever, so don't
take that advice. So as we're, she's always light
and cheery. Speed, she's Annie. Miss Congeniality,
I forget her name, but I think it's kind of,
maybe it's kind of a drab name. Or maybe it's
a classic name that's new again, like Agnes.
Do you feel that she's going to embody kind of
like the blind side? Like she's from a wealthy,
established family, not Southern per se, but
more like... Well, if they came from a Peace
Corps -like living, it would be modest. So maybe
she's like taken... their stories made them exciting
in a way and so again the irony is that she's
affiliated with excitement but only written about
it yeah she's got this great you know experience
with her grandparents but in finding love she
just has neglected it as you said is successful
and then has this revelation okay like i'm just
gonna it could do exactly what they did yeah
because all this in her head this whole time
this perfect couple's been there And the idea
is, why don't I just do that? I love it. And
she knows vaguely along the way where they met,
but maybe the rub is in flashback. It's a little
different. Well, it's like all of us. None of
us truly know our parents' full story. Or there's
some comedy in how Daniel Radcliffe and Emma
Watson misremember different things. Oh, yeah,
that'd be fun. So again, that's not a romantic
comedy necessarily. um because the romance um
could be a little bit more serious yeah um so
when they go to this place there could be war
there could be an extenuating circumstance that
precipitates more disaster or anything you know
things like that that make the vagabond um and
she come together more turns out he's trying
to really help his community and yeah he's seen
as this rough scoundrel kind of guy but it turns
out he's not and i'm kind of obsessed with the
thing that she helps her grandparents with um
because i like the idea um you know again she's
dying yeah um that being the the poster would
be and all of it like played so and maybe that's
her bravery like all of her ram is being spent
putting this away can i can i hit you with a
left field question just uh i have curiosity
now we've kind of percolated on this give me
a tagline um last known location sandy b's dying
finding love what are we looking for what is
this tagline Well, I'm looking. I see the poster.
I see the poster. In a way, I see some colors.
Where were you? Ooh, where were you? I can see
that. You know, and it could be read as, like,
where were you? Or where were you? And that,
you know, could be related to the sickness. Okay.
Her life. The person she meets. Just as an idea.
I can see it. And I don't know if that's a tagline
already and it's hard to know, but like, you
know, the last known location, where were you?
And if it's, if it's, and that's, what's kind
of interesting is billed as a romance. That's,
you know, fairly fascinating. And I'd want to
know more, you know, a writer fed up with not
finding love decides to recreate her grandparents,
unique way of meeting. Yeah. And actually does
it. Yeah. I think, but. Shocker. Shocker. Third
act reveal. Who? She's on the way out. She's
dying. Turns out. Do we find out right after
they confess their love for each other? I'm really
feeling something about this third act reveal.
This is fucking heartbreaking. Yeah, this is
going to be hurtful. Because we can still have
it be happy. If you do tie it to the poster,
I think that's actually we could be written up
for crimes. No. On that. War crimes? Geneva?
That's so sad. No. No. It's not our responsibility
to coerce their emotions. What do you mean? It's
not on us. It's not on us. Are you starting to
think about a director for this? I don't. Because
it does have some seriousness to it. It does
have some seriousness to it. i'm really spacing
on a good good director here yeah you got any
suggestions i have one only i can't remember
her name and i feel like i should look it up
before i give you the suggestion i do have one
tagline that i would also oh yeah please please
for this for this one i think uh for last known
location i think the tagline uh might be have
you gone looking or have you like went looking
or something to that effect have you looked have
you looked yet have you looked all right but
no what is What's a movie that this person has
done? Are we talking like a Catherine Bigelow
type? Ooh, that'd be fun. All right. I have one
person. I want to make sure I got the right person.
There's definitely some action in this. All right.
First suggestion. off the top of the dome yeah
i for some reason immediately thought of uh and
i couldn't remember her name so apologies uh
oh yeah but uh greta gerwing i think she would
knock this out of the park okay okay uh the other
one i'm not sure also who directed this but obviously
because she did she did barbie and lady bird
if i'm remembering correctly yeah i think she
would definitely knock this one out of the park
that's perfect but if i was going in the other
direction and i was kind of like thinking of
like the action aspect who do you remember do
you know who directed Sahara the McConaughey
one oh I love that movie that that that movie
kind of like rides that like perfect edge of
like action comedy kind of almost romance tied
with heart but who was it Eisner that's Brett
Eisner no Brock Eisner Brock Eisner um he did
um oh the last witch hunter the crazies That'd
be interesting. Yeah. That'd be interesting.
Yeah. I would have loved Penny Marshall back
in the day. Okay. Um, because of some of the,
you know, you can have some, some eighties, nineties
feel for that. I can see it. That is great. I
could definitely see it having like a nineties,
like a venture movie vibe to it. I can see that.
Who directed bridesmaids? Oh, that's it. Solid
question that I... Is that Paul Feig? It might
have been Paul Feig. I know he definitely produced
it. Is that an option for this? Is that fun?
I don't know if it quite hits the vibes we'd
be going for. I could definitely do the comedy,
but I don't know if it'd quite be what you're
after or what I'm after. No offense, Paul Feig.
And the thing is, I think she'd crush writing
this movie, too. I think this movie would be
a lot of fun. I think that's one of the things
that we need nowadays. We need writer -directors
because... I don't know, too many cooks in the
kitchen trying to get everything made. It's like
we can't cater to everybody, but one person catering
to themselves might make a really tasty thing.
All right, so we have grandparents. Yes. We have
main characters. Yes. Now it's kind of some fun
meat and potatoes. Let's hear it. Who do you
meet along the way? Ooh. Does she have a best
friend back home? 100%. Amy Adams. Off the top
of the head. I don't know why. And doing her
Amelia Earhart accent from Night at the Museum,
too. She says things like, what's the rumpus,
Ace? Yeah. And she's an actress that, like, she
refuses to give up. All right. Amy Adams, fun
best friend. Fantastic. Hey, now, wasn't she
also an arrival, right? Yeah, she was. Don't
you besmirch her great name. Amy Adams is a treasure.
She can do anything. And she's gorgeous, in my
opinion. Do we have a fun quirk for her? She's
going to be the best friend, but also the editor
slash publisher of these books. Oh, publisher.
Oh, is this like a Joan Wilder said publisher
relationship? No, I don't know that. Don't know
the story. Romancing the Stone. Oh, okay. I like
it. I like it. Always trying to set her up with
men. Oh, yeah, yeah. Too boring. Vague. I like
that. As the publisher of these books. As the
publisher and best friend. And, of course, she's
in the inner circle of the know. She knows the
it people. All right. So maybe an important question.
Sandy is in New York. Is this a high city? Yeah,
this definitely feels urbanite. She's definitely
an urbanite, right? Fun, fun, fun, fun, fun.
Yeah. I really like this. Okay. Fun best friend.
We have that. Do we need a villain? Do we need
a presence that causes friction consistently?
Could be. All right. Here's what it is. You ready
for this? Her most recent date that Amy Adams
set her up on. Is this like exact? This is like,
you know, big wig. Turns out, like, he's part
of, like, the oil company trying to tear down
the idyllic village. Oh, so she helps to take
him down. In some capacity. Or, like, she stumbles
into him Billy Zane style. Billy Zane. Yeah.
Billy Zane style. Yeah, yeah. Yes. And that's
a good matching. That's, like, age match. Okay,
perfect, perfect, perfect. But, and he is, yes,
that is really cool. Like, he's some, he's some.
Doing something down. down way yeah but like
he doesn't want to be there like he's some like
rich like he's an executive but like he was like
a rich kid who's like i really don't want to
be down here whatever it takes to get it done
i don't care he didn't go the phantom way he
you know he took his kit walker money i love
that i love that that's awesome yeah um does
there need to be a um you know along the way
a guide What do you mean? Like a spiritual guide?
For her. Because she's taking a leap. She's leaving
Amy Adams behind. A publisher who's freaking
out. She's taking care of whatever pet she's
got to leave. Maybe it's a lizard. She lands
at this tiny, tiny airport and becomes friends
with the travel agent there. But aside from Oscar
Isaac, maybe there's some meat and potatoes.
for something else along here's what happens
uh so when she lands in the airplane at this
exotic location yeah there's no cars or anything
around and like the only person there is this
travel agent who's in this girl's just like hey
how about you just come stay with me for the
night and then like they become friends oh nice
and this is how we tie her into like the locals
yeah yeah i think so because otherwise if you
even being a male there's always that like well
will they won't they connection because this
person is a little plugged in and helps her tie
into billy zane's evil yeah you know by the way
yeah like hey have you like they're the ones
pointing out like all the corporate billboards
be like coming soon yeah To this beautiful paradise
near you, oil fields. You know, something like
that. The beautiful beach town resort of Zaneville
is coming soon. I love that. All right. Maria
Conchita Alonso. Who is she in another movie?
I'll say yes immediately because I trust your
judgment on this. She's in The Running Man. Okay.
Predator 2. Okay. done let's do it um she uh
i don't know i like maybe a classic um actor
actor who would like really be leaning into the
local type of thing um i feel like you know i
don't know i just like her she has her super
thick accent and could have some gravitas and
fun um i'm down let's do it what was the last
thing she was in the lords of salem recently
i think okay You've already convinced me. I hope
you know that. You know, I don't know. Somebody,
I like the idea of these actors who have been
character actors and give them something really
super cool. I'll be honest with you. I mean,
her accent is super thick, though. I mean, it
may be too much. I think character actors are
sometimes better than the stars. Yeah. Because
they actually chew up the scenery. The stars,
I don't know. I'm not going to say they're bad.
I believe she's still, yeah, she's still doing
things. There's things in. production kill them
all too was the last thing she was in if not
her i'm going to pose just because uh again shits
and giggles it'd be really fun would be like
michelle rodriguez because she's always a hard
ass for some reason every role has always been
her as a hard left and we're gonna go michelle
rodriguez for the local i yes because i would
love for her because she's great as the hard
ass but she's been troped it'd be fun for her
to be herself but also kind of still have that
streak of like, Hey, there's still some terrible
stuff going on here. I don't know if we've been
paying attention to like, yeah, maybe just really
deadpan. Like she's deadpan, but have a deadpan
for fun. Oh yeah. She just, yeah, I can see that.
Just like, what are you talking about? Yeah.
I love that. All right. So we have our director,
we have our stars and we have a writer and director.
Yeah. I think that part's great. Do you have
anybody you would want to compose this? I was
just thinking about that. Danny Elfman. I don't
know why, other than, like, the whimsy parts
would be pretty great. I think it should be something
a little bit... Do we need, like, needle drops?
More grand and more kind of tropical leaning,
maybe. Okay, okay. Something that has some gravitas
to it, but... did i'm awful with this sometimes
you know what i mean like yeah composers i it's
a lot tougher of a pick there it is um but i
think there are people who um like old school
if you think of bill conti uh he did the thomas
crown affair um he uh He did Rocky. He did The
Right Stuff. He may not still be with us any
longer. Forgive me. I was just thinking about
him recently. if it was kind of a mellow well
we talked about this score or soundtrack you
talked about remember i'm not opposed to there
being a soundtrack this time yeah so there should
be some that's why i think about a score like
the thomas crown affair and it has like sexy
music yeah and it has some like salsa you know
what it needs you know that kind of thing it
needs the 90s r &b theme song at the end I don't
know what it is, but we need to have a 90s R
&B theme song for sure. I love that a lot. That
anchor is the theme and the feel of it. Even
in comedy movies, next time you watch Talladega
Nights, if you recognize... There's one little
melody that is every emotional beat in the movie
because he doesn't play any other music. It's
just like... this one beat the first beat that
you kind of hear to intro the music like the
strum chord melody that's all that's the only
thing he uses throughout the rest of the movie
it works perfectly yeah whereas like having a
r &b song like we can take bits and pieces and
still have just instrumentals you can have the
song we can have the artist okay well could you
all right i want bruno mars to do it i would
like bruno mars to create a custom song yeah
that'd be called The last known location, something
with... Oh, that'd be fun. Because back in the
day... Yeah, there was always... Don't you remember
that the name of the movie was in the theme song?
Yep, every time. You know, again, Big Trouble
in Little China. Ghostbusters. There's a lot
that you can probably recall. Maybe it's not
as deep of a list, you know, Once Bitten, UHF.
Other Weird Al movies. Other ones. Weird Al did
He's Got the Life, the Johnny Dangerously intro
as well. So maybe if somebody like Bruno Mars
cameo in the movie. Yeah, like they're at the
hotel or something and he's putting on an event
or something. I would say significant cameo if
it's him. Yeah, for sure. Wait a second. What
do we got? brainwave coming in. Could we give
him a little bit bigger role? What do you want
him to do? Well, he's like the local bad. He's
Billy Zane's like heavy. He's the guy who gets
kind of taken down. He's the one? We get a Bruno
Mars acting. That'd be fun. Give him a mustache.
He carries a switchblade. He has a scene where
he's like out of his normal suit. Like he's still
fedora, right? All five foot, like three of him.
Does he get a heavy accent? I think we let Bruno
Mars do whatever Bruno Mars does. He's just Bruno
Mars. I'm down. If you sing and dance at times,
fucking do it. What if he's the hotel's wedding?
He's the wedding events DJ coordinator. We're
very hotel heavy in this. Yeah, I think. Well,
she's got to stay somewhere. Yeah, she's got
to stay somewhere. Or he's just this crazy eccentric
local, but I do love it. I do love the fact that
it's someone. Tied to Billy Zane's evil character.
Billy Zane's hosting a party. He's hosting the
ribbon -cutting event, and he's going to be the
DJ or the host or something. He's the evil DJ.
So he's singing inside the movie, so it's diegetic.
Yes. Wow, interesting. Love it. But the fact
that he could be the... the zane tie yeah all
the bad stuff yeah yeah like he's the one who
keeps telling him like oh this big thing's coming
in and then like yeah we might have to start
it with uh her on her date with billy zane and
like you just in like you you meet like you don't
even show his face you just show like her at
this date and how awful it goes and just cut
to her talking to amy adams being like that was
terrible this is awful way to save money yeah
you get a stand -in yeah First rule of Hollywood
is we shoot over the shoulder, medium close -up,
no long range. You don't see faces. Now, we haven't
solidified how we're honoring Granny and Grandpa.
I think right here is where you do it. Her whole
thing is she complains to Amy Adams about this
and how she's just looking for real love, and
that doesn't exist anymore. And she opens up
this shoebox in her closet. She's cleaning out
or something like that. A bunch of photos falls
out. Very typical. That's the name of the boat
that they sail away on? Real Love? Real Love?
No. To die? To die. That she sails away. Does
Oscar Isaac, we're kind of forgetting this poor
rogue, Captain Ron. Captain Ron. I see him as
an eyepatch now. That would be so fun. And he's
all of a sudden Kurt Russell from Captain Ron.
But does he along the way, does he find out?
Is the movie more interesting? Like we know and
he doesn't and then fade to black. I think at
the end we have to have them reconcile. Somehow
the big turn is she didn't want to tell him that
she was dying and he's obviously very betrayed
by this because they're in love. That's the whole
thing. So I think the turn, this part of the
romance is him recognizing that like it doesn't
matter that she betrayed his trust in that fact
like he'd rather spend the last whatever she
has together and they're writing together so
like he could potentially be continuing on work
and you realize that so we get this happy ending
that like yeah they get to ride off into the
sunset right before sandy b's character dies
yeah with seven minutes we have seven minutes
we have seven minutes do we do it do what else
we got left that's actually quite i was wondering
we actually have time i think to recap But the
idea that they're brought together through this
fracas that is brought about by Zane and company
that's carried out by Bruno Mars, I'd like to
give him like a James Bond henchman type name.
He gets a fun code name? Yeah, he gets a name.
Like, you know, not like Jaws. Tommy Bahamas
shirt. Maybe he does. We honor Richard Kiel and
his whole mouth. His villainous sharp teeth.
Because they got kicked out in prison because
he's, you know, four foot three. They call him
Scar and he's just got like a scar on his face.
He's got like a high -pitched voice and they
call him Squeak. Like, don't you call me Squeak.
Don't you call me Squeak. Did you ever watch
Prison Break? no the show no i have i'm aware
season one is season one is by far it's an 11
out of 10 season one is an 11 out of 10 after
that you want to keep watching because you're
like how have we land the ship and okay they
never quite reached that peak ever again unfortunately
because how do you top perfection totally fair
but one of the characters this is why i was taking
us here uh he's i forget uh the character's name
because i only remember his nickname and his
nickname in the show is sucre And so they always
call him Sucre. Nice. Season three, one of the
guys is like, hey, why do you always want to
be called that? He's talking to somebody. He's
like, I'm not calling you Sugar, asshole. And
the one guy just stops and looks at him and is
like, I've known you for five years and you've
told me your nickname was Sucre? And he's like,
you're telling me I've been calling you Sugar
in Spanish this whole time? So it would be really
funny if his nickname was Sugar or something
like that because he's so sweet, but he's actually...
Again, there are... So many examples of characters
who are maybe not big in stature, but are just
like vicious and mighty in their own way. You
know what I mean? I'm Leo Getz. I love it. But
let Bruno Mars just do his thing. I can see him
eating up the scene. Here's the idea. You figure
out your quirks. Is he like Kevin Hart in Fool's
Gold? You could sing if you want to. You can
have dances. You can like, I'm going to do a
Mr. Blonde from Reservoir Dogs and cut ears.
I'm going to have ear necklace and I'm going
to love it. And I'm going to be stanky. That
would be terrifying. But yeah. And again. wow
i just realized this is a romance this is a romance
we go too far i think you you really want to
get into this adventure aspect of it within you
really want it i'm all right with it calm yourself
down um and then um so uh do you said sail away
like do you really mean that is yeah maybe a
boat i think i think maybe we have we we hollywood
style we classic hollywood style it we're like
yeah we show From the beach, we show the boat
sailing off into the sunset. And then last thing
we see is we camera pan down to the beach and
they both left their cell phones. Last location.
Yeah. I don't know if it's a great one. Are they
sailing off for her to die? She's like, we have
a line in the movie where she's like, I really
would like to see the rest of the world. And
he's like, I got a boat. I've been wanting to
sail the world. it may be too much minutiae at
this last minute but how imminent is her death
like really i don't know it depends like that
could be like i'll show you as much as i can
yeah it could very much just be like She just
had a visit with doctors as well where it's like
it's coming. I think her death has to be pretty
soon. Yeah, I feel like it can't be five years.
They can be sailing away, but that's just enough.
They're sailing away for her to die and him to...
Yeah, I feel like continue writing. The best
thing that writers can do is leave it to the
imagination. Isn't that why it makes horror so
scary? The thing not shown? We've gotten a lot
resolved. And Oscar Isaac... captain ron is uh
is screwed like in a way his heart's but he's
been given this gift of writing yeah he's continuing
her yeah you know picking up where her path in
a way you have that the grandparents have been
honored the bad guy's been taken out um you know
you have michelle rodriguez who maybe along the
way is able to help repair what's been done yeah
So she can have some resolution. She helps the
community take care after the corporation is
being removed. She's part of the group helping
get rid of that. That'd be fun. I would like
to see her as a mom. I don't know why. Oh, yeah.
We never get to see her as that matriarchal take.
And that's part of the end. You could wrap it
up in that like, bam, this is happening. We get
a bunch of happiness. Going good. And then as
soon as you get through the credits and you think
about it for a minute, you're like, oh, Sandy
B died. Wait a second. Here's an interesting
last bit. Yeah. But what if all this, the boat's
leaving, the boat's leaving, and all these things
are happening, and you pan out to the boat leaving,
and he's standing on it. who on the beach like
like she's going she's going off on her eye oh
that would be cold i could see it you know i
i feel like we leave that to the director make
the death imminent yeah and that's not terrible
i feel like this is a point where we gotta leave
it up to greta greta's gotta figure that one
out that could be a director's ending yeah we
that's a deleted scene for sure yo all right
one minute and 20 seconds i think we did it do
we have any other bonus points I think we got
some bonus points. We talked a little bit about
composer. We got writer. We did get a writer.
We cheated. We cheated. But I think it's the
best play. That would be amazing. I would totally
go. I'll be honest. I haven't seen Barbie yet,
but I feel like I should definitely see it. But
like I could see her doing this movie. It's so
great. Is it weird that this movie, for some
reason, reminds me... What's the Harrison Ford
movie where he's on an island? He's a pilot.
Remember that one? Six Days and Seven Nights.
Yeah. With Anne Heche. Yeah. Rest in peace. Yeah.
For some reason, this is giving me that kind
of vibe. Some adventure's cool. Some adventure's
cool. Again, Romancing the Stone is like a paradigm
of this type of movie. Probably a lot more adventure.
Yeah. But it's a romance. It's steamy. I saw
it in the theater. I saw Kathleen Turner's little
half boob and I was like, but it's a romance.
She's a romance novelist. So I think we fulfilled
the... premise of this. I think we definitely
did. We stayed away. I kind of got a little crazy
with Bruno Mars' ear necklace. You really want
a Bruno Mars Mad Max movie. That's really what
you're looking for. His character doesn't die
at the end. He's horribly burned. He somehow
survives the post -apocalypse and becomes a warlord.
That's what you want? I would watch a Bruno Mars
warlord movie. I don't know why. You know, we
made two movies today. I think we made more than
two. We fulfilled our promise twice. We definitely
did it. Hey, Logan, well done. This was a good
movie. Congratulations to us again. And, you
know, listen, I think people should listen. If
anybody's interested in hearing more, please
reach out and let us know that you want to hear
more. And we appreciate any suggestions, kind
-hearted or otherwise, you know. If you know
somebody who knows somebody, we would love to
make this movie. Reach out. Let's make this movie.
We're going to make this movie. Yeah, make it.
Let's make it.
