WEBVTT

00:00:02.250 --> 00:00:04.330
Well, our episode 30 is a little different than

00:00:04.330 --> 00:00:08.210
expected, but, you know, things happen. We had

00:00:08.210 --> 00:00:11.429
recorded a Dragon Ball Evolution episode, and

00:00:11.429 --> 00:00:13.529
then we were going to go into the Q &A, and my

00:00:13.529 --> 00:00:16.230
computer decided to die, and so we lost the Dragon

00:00:16.230 --> 00:00:18.949
Ball Evolution part. Turns out the real podcast

00:00:18.949 --> 00:00:20.910
is the technical difficulties we experience along

00:00:20.910 --> 00:00:24.410
the way. God damn it. That's another shirt we

00:00:24.410 --> 00:00:26.870
need to add. That's a long shirt, but... No,

00:00:26.910 --> 00:00:28.730
the friends we made along the way. Sure, why

00:00:28.730 --> 00:00:32.670
not? So, we're going to jump into the Q &A part.

00:00:32.929 --> 00:00:35.450
I am your host, Mike. I am joined by... Jill.

00:00:36.689 --> 00:00:39.229
Mitchell. Andre. And we have a special guest

00:00:39.229 --> 00:00:41.850
that's going to be asking us our questions. It's

00:00:41.850 --> 00:00:46.969
Claire! Woo! It's Claire. So, this is the question

00:00:46.969 --> 00:00:50.909
and answer thing. We had you submit questions.

00:00:51.210 --> 00:00:53.469
Thank you. A lot of these are from podcasts that

00:00:53.469 --> 00:00:55.570
we know, love, and everything like that. So,

00:00:55.590 --> 00:00:58.210
thank you guys very much for submitting. We're

00:00:58.210 --> 00:01:00.359
going to read... As many questions as we can

00:01:00.359 --> 00:01:02.740
get to, and probably an abbreviated episode,

00:01:02.799 --> 00:01:04.579
but we'll see because we can talk for hours.

00:01:04.939 --> 00:01:07.420
Yeah. We'll do the bonus, like, what was left

00:01:07.420 --> 00:01:09.439
on the cutting room floor some other time. Some

00:01:09.439 --> 00:01:12.079
other time, yes. And then the Dragon Ball Evolution,

00:01:12.299 --> 00:01:15.019
if you are on Clubhouse, we are going to do a

00:01:15.019 --> 00:01:17.840
special Clubhouse where we talk about Dragon

00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:19.780
Ball Evolution because we just need to talk about

00:01:19.780 --> 00:01:22.640
this movie. It's probably going to be a lot of

00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:24.620
what was already on the cutting room floor. Right.

00:01:24.859 --> 00:01:26.840
But we just need to get this out there somewhere.

00:01:27.099 --> 00:01:29.319
And so we will probably do a special clubhouse.

00:01:30.239 --> 00:01:32.739
Yeah. And if that goes well, maybe we'll do something

00:01:32.739 --> 00:01:34.599
for the Snyder Cut. If that doesn't become an

00:01:34.599 --> 00:01:37.280
episode. Yes. I have thoughts on Snyder. Oh,

00:01:37.299 --> 00:01:39.060
yeah. I want to talk about that movie. It's on

00:01:39.060 --> 00:01:41.000
our list. It's on our list. Four hours is hard

00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:42.219
to cut out. Yeah, I was about to say, take a

00:01:42.219 --> 00:01:43.540
chunk out of your afternoon. I was going to say,

00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:45.920
make sure to go out into the sunshine, feel some

00:01:45.920 --> 00:01:47.900
color. Yes, right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Maybe go

00:01:47.900 --> 00:01:49.780
see, be with nature before you have to sit in

00:01:49.780 --> 00:01:52.579
desaturation for four hours. Well, all we need

00:01:52.579 --> 00:01:53.840
to do... It's perfect for this week, really,

00:01:53.959 --> 00:01:56.640
for us. Right. All we need to do is split it

00:01:56.640 --> 00:01:59.079
up with Godzilla vs. Kong, which has the Neon

00:01:59.079 --> 00:02:01.599
City. Yeah. Because I love the Neon City trope.

00:02:01.620 --> 00:02:03.560
All right, yeah, so watch. How many chapters

00:02:03.560 --> 00:02:05.840
are in that movie? Six. So watch three chapters.

00:02:05.859 --> 00:02:07.379
Plus epilogue. Plus epilogue. Three chapters

00:02:07.379 --> 00:02:10.719
of Zack Snyder and then an intermission of...

00:02:10.969 --> 00:02:13.430
Godzilla vs. Kong. Injection of color and then

00:02:13.430 --> 00:02:16.370
buckle back down for depression and desaturation.

00:02:16.629 --> 00:02:18.870
There you go. Great. It's what Zack Snyder's

00:02:18.870 --> 00:02:21.110
intended viewing experience was, of course. The

00:02:21.110 --> 00:02:24.110
Snyder Cut was much better than the Weed and

00:02:24.110 --> 00:02:28.129
Gut. Oh, yes. High levels, yes. That's what we've

00:02:28.129 --> 00:02:30.750
all heard, but I've seen Man of Steel and I've

00:02:30.750 --> 00:02:33.210
seen Batman vs. Superman. I'm not expecting bright

00:02:33.210 --> 00:02:38.120
sunshine. The palette is what it is. And I've

00:02:38.120 --> 00:02:40.560
also seen, whatchamacallit, the... Sucker Punch?

00:02:40.819 --> 00:02:43.000
Sucker Punch, yes. My first analysis of a movie

00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:45.039
that I should absolutely watch is a bad movie.

00:02:45.180 --> 00:02:47.099
No, you don't want to. I don't want to, but...

00:02:47.099 --> 00:02:48.840
I don't think it counts as a bad movie, because

00:02:48.840 --> 00:02:50.879
it's just middle of the road. Yeah. Well, you

00:02:50.879 --> 00:02:52.379
know what? We're getting off topic. It's a lot

00:02:52.379 --> 00:02:56.139
of half -baked ideas. Okay. Keep going. So Claire

00:02:56.139 --> 00:02:58.840
is here. Yes. Claire! To ask the questions for

00:02:58.840 --> 00:03:02.199
us. I am here. You're welcome. Yeah. So happy

00:03:02.199 --> 00:03:13.280
to be great. Damn! Damn! My... So let's jump

00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:16.219
into it with some questions and answers. Um,

00:03:16.539 --> 00:03:19.939
we'll just, we'll go how it goes. Go in a circle.

00:03:20.080 --> 00:03:22.080
Go in a circle. But where, where are we? Do you

00:03:22.080 --> 00:03:24.719
want to like start somewhere? Ground rules. I'll

00:03:24.719 --> 00:03:27.259
read the questions and then afterwards we'll

00:03:27.259 --> 00:03:29.620
just give a shout out to all the pods who submitted

00:03:29.620 --> 00:03:32.020
the questions. You're going to hand me your phone

00:03:32.020 --> 00:03:34.360
because I'll tell you about all the pods who

00:03:34.360 --> 00:03:35.340
submitted the questions. So I'll just read the

00:03:35.340 --> 00:03:37.120
questions, we'll go over them, and then afterwards

00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:39.419
we'll give shout outs. We'll try and keep each

00:03:39.419 --> 00:03:44.229
response brief. Yes. Particularly me. Talk as

00:03:44.229 --> 00:03:46.509
long as we want. Yeah. Chatty by nature. Nature.

00:03:46.509 --> 00:03:48.810
It's part of my charm. All right. So are you

00:03:48.810 --> 00:03:50.569
picking who's going first or are we just going

00:03:50.569 --> 00:03:52.289
in the same order? I'm just going to read the

00:03:52.289 --> 00:03:54.409
questions. You guys can figure out who's answering

00:03:54.409 --> 00:03:56.430
first. Excellent. That's not my job. Okay. My

00:03:56.430 --> 00:03:58.009
job is just to read. I thought you should just

00:03:58.009 --> 00:03:59.509
shout out a person. I expect people to have more

00:03:59.509 --> 00:04:01.169
to say on certain questions than others. That's

00:04:01.169 --> 00:04:03.509
too much work. I disappear for a brief time.

00:04:03.530 --> 00:04:05.229
It's because I'm getting more champagne. Okay.

00:04:05.409 --> 00:04:08.650
Okay. Excellent. That means we need to send one

00:04:08.650 --> 00:04:11.020
of the men upstairs to open it. Oh, okay. Got

00:04:11.020 --> 00:04:13.659
it. I can't even cake decorate my peony little

00:04:13.659 --> 00:04:16.660
wrist shake. I was done with the bloodies. I'll

00:04:16.660 --> 00:04:19.660
get the champagne. It's not cold. That's okay.

00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:23.980
We got ice for that. Oh, we got ice too? One

00:04:23.980 --> 00:04:26.319
of the trays is already frozen. One of them is

00:04:26.319 --> 00:04:29.399
not. We'll start with the first question, but

00:04:29.399 --> 00:04:34.420
Mike will be last. Okay. So, first question.

00:04:35.180 --> 00:04:37.319
Who would do better in face -off rules, Nick

00:04:37.319 --> 00:04:39.720
Cage in all of John Travolta's roles, or vice

00:04:39.720 --> 00:04:41.860
versa, John Travolta in all of Nick Cage's roles?

00:04:42.439 --> 00:04:45.910
Hmm. I can't answer that one because... I can't

00:04:45.910 --> 00:04:47.910
imagine Nicolas Cage in Grease at all because

00:04:47.910 --> 00:04:49.610
I don't think Nicolas Cage can really sing and

00:04:49.610 --> 00:04:52.269
or dance. Oh. But I also cannot imagine John

00:04:52.269 --> 00:04:55.149
Travolta as a convincing Benjamin Franklin Gates

00:04:55.149 --> 00:04:57.089
in National Church. Yeah, I can't see. I'm enjoying

00:04:57.089 --> 00:04:59.769
envisioning that. Right. My answer to this question

00:04:59.769 --> 00:05:00.949
is not necessarily it would be better, but I

00:05:00.949 --> 00:05:03.129
would be very interested in watching Nick Cage

00:05:03.129 --> 00:05:05.910
in all of John Travolta's movies. Nick Cage in

00:05:05.910 --> 00:05:07.689
Grease? Can we imagine? Yes, please. Saturday

00:05:07.689 --> 00:05:10.189
Night Fever? I just can't. It would not be good,

00:05:10.329 --> 00:05:12.509
but come on. And Battlefield Earth? Come on now.

00:05:12.529 --> 00:05:13.970
See, that's fine. Let's go. Battlefield Earth

00:05:13.970 --> 00:05:16.779
with Cage. it a -okay, but Saturday Night Fever

00:05:16.779 --> 00:05:21.360
or Grease with Nick Cage? Question mark? Yes.

00:05:21.519 --> 00:05:24.560
How about Pulp Fiction with Nick Cage? Yes. I

00:05:24.560 --> 00:05:27.040
think that would be okay. I want a Quentin Tarantino

00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:29.300
directed Nick Cage. I want to see that. I'm sorry.

00:05:29.459 --> 00:05:33.079
Are we talking about Nick Cage not being able

00:05:33.079 --> 00:05:34.660
to pull off Saturday Night Fever? Because you're

00:05:34.660 --> 00:05:37.139
wrong. He can. He can? He can pull off it. He

00:05:37.139 --> 00:05:38.980
can sing and dance? He can sing and dance. Alright,

00:05:39.000 --> 00:05:42.339
here's the real question. Nicolas Cage as Tracy's

00:05:42.339 --> 00:05:46.100
mom in Hairspray. 100%. You think he can pull

00:05:46.100 --> 00:05:47.779
off a convincing Baltimore accent? Because nobody

00:05:47.779 --> 00:05:50.839
else in the film could. Do you think John Travolta

00:05:50.839 --> 00:05:54.160
can pull off Nicholas Gates? No. Benjamin Gates.

00:05:54.639 --> 00:05:59.459
No, I can't. Yeah. Nick Cage. What is there to

00:05:59.459 --> 00:06:01.759
pull off in that role? No offense. We've got

00:06:01.759 --> 00:06:04.000
to steal the Declaration of Independence, man.

00:06:04.139 --> 00:06:09.339
That's a lie. I can't see Travolta convincingly

00:06:09.339 --> 00:06:12.279
looking at the camera and say, I've got to. what

00:06:12.279 --> 00:06:14.800
was it i cannot see yeah john travolta can't

00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:16.899
pull off the secret lies with charlotte man okay

00:06:16.899 --> 00:06:19.339
that's one of the most iconic lines in cinema

00:06:19.339 --> 00:06:21.199
and it takes a special kind of character to pull

00:06:21.199 --> 00:06:23.180
that off that's the level of patriotism i just

00:06:23.180 --> 00:06:25.519
don't think the one i got stuck on that made

00:06:25.519 --> 00:06:28.199
the difference for me is nick cage could do be

00:06:28.199 --> 00:06:31.040
cool but john travolta can't do national treasure

00:06:31.040 --> 00:06:34.360
okay okay what about uh the one where nicholas

00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:37.399
cage becomes a vampire I am a vampire. I am a

00:06:37.399 --> 00:06:40.500
vampire. Oh, yeah. I've never seen that. I still

00:06:40.500 --> 00:06:42.040
think I've seen that. But you've seen the scene.

00:06:42.740 --> 00:06:45.279
Oh, yeah. Oh, there's also the one where... You

00:06:45.279 --> 00:06:47.569
could reasonably fuck Cher. Could John Travolta

00:06:47.569 --> 00:06:49.689
fuck Sharon Neistat? Yeah, sure. I think they

00:06:49.689 --> 00:06:52.230
both could. I think they both could. Totally.

00:06:54.009 --> 00:06:57.689
Not the bees! I can see John Travolta saying

00:06:57.689 --> 00:07:00.290
not the bees. What about the iconic Con Air meme

00:07:00.290 --> 00:07:02.689
with Nicolas Cage? Can John Travolta have the

00:07:02.689 --> 00:07:05.389
breeze in his face and he's just smiling up?

00:07:05.470 --> 00:07:07.649
You know what I'm talking about? Okay, I think

00:07:07.649 --> 00:07:10.910
what we're asking here is can that actor do as

00:07:10.910 --> 00:07:13.029
good a job as the other one did or meet that

00:07:13.029 --> 00:07:16.399
same level of performance? Who do you think could

00:07:16.399 --> 00:07:18.800
outdo the other in the same role? You know, if

00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:22.480
we're just looking at... So, I go back to that

00:07:22.480 --> 00:07:24.459
point. If they're trying to outdo each other

00:07:24.459 --> 00:07:27.660
like that, my thing is, none of these scenes

00:07:27.660 --> 00:07:30.600
would be at the same level because John Travolta

00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:32.819
would try to be good at it. Right. Nick Cage

00:07:32.819 --> 00:07:36.819
just buys into the insanity. Yeah, he does. Versus

00:07:36.819 --> 00:07:39.560
John Travolta would try to be a good actor. Sometimes.

00:07:39.899 --> 00:07:45.160
Sometimes. Try. Try. It depends on when we're

00:07:45.160 --> 00:07:48.199
catching up with Travolta. I could see Travolta

00:07:48.199 --> 00:07:51.279
doing an equally good job in The Family Man as

00:07:51.279 --> 00:07:53.600
Nicolas Cage because that's a more subdued role.

00:07:53.980 --> 00:07:58.759
But in a film like the one we watched with Elijah

00:07:58.759 --> 00:08:03.339
Wood. The Trust? The Trust. I don't know if...

00:08:03.339 --> 00:08:05.420
Maybe Elijah Wood's character got slapped in

00:08:05.420 --> 00:08:07.560
the face with a stupid stick, but if I was going

00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:09.560
along with that plot and John Travolta was in

00:08:09.560 --> 00:08:12.399
Nicolas Cage's role, I... would be way more suspicious

00:08:12.399 --> 00:08:15.279
of everything. Being like, I don't know, dude.

00:08:15.560 --> 00:08:19.019
You seem really intense on getting this safe

00:08:19.019 --> 00:08:21.740
open. Okay, final answers. Final answers. Alright.

00:08:21.959 --> 00:08:24.220
It's not consistent. I say Nick Cage would be

00:08:24.220 --> 00:08:26.100
better in John Travolta's roles. I would agree.

00:08:26.199 --> 00:08:29.819
I'm taking Nick Cage to swap John Travolta. I'm

00:08:29.819 --> 00:08:32.259
gonna be a sheeple and say Nick Cage as well.

00:08:32.379 --> 00:08:36.080
Yes. I'm going to be Switzerland and say diplomatically

00:08:36.080 --> 00:08:39.529
that there are some roles that it... No diplomatic.

00:08:39.929 --> 00:08:43.950
Boo. Boo. Fine. Nicholas Cage and John Travolta

00:08:43.950 --> 00:08:45.409
rules, except the ones where he's singing and

00:08:45.409 --> 00:08:49.990
dancing. Boo. Boo. Caveat. No boo. Caveat. John

00:08:49.990 --> 00:08:51.789
Travolta can play super. I'm slapping my caveat

00:08:51.789 --> 00:08:54.990
slash footnote on there. All right. Full disclaimer,

00:08:55.210 --> 00:08:57.850
we have done a Nick Cage episode of this podcast,

00:08:58.090 --> 00:09:00.009
and I don't think there are any plans for us

00:09:00.009 --> 00:09:01.990
to do the same for John Travolta. No. There is.

00:09:02.169 --> 00:09:03.789
I've talked about it. Wait, what? Is there? The

00:09:03.789 --> 00:09:05.889
John Travolta episode. We've talked about doing

00:09:05.889 --> 00:09:09.019
it. The John Travolta episode. Yeah, because

00:09:09.019 --> 00:09:12.600
he's also an actor with a yo -yo career. You

00:09:12.600 --> 00:09:15.519
missed the last episode. We were talking about

00:09:15.519 --> 00:09:17.779
it last episode where we were saying he would

00:09:17.779 --> 00:09:19.940
be another good one. Is he a good actor or not?

00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:23.179
It's true. It depends. I'd be interested. There's

00:09:23.179 --> 00:09:24.919
a couple of John Travolta movies I need to watch

00:09:24.919 --> 00:09:28.220
that I'd be curious of watching. So maybe that's

00:09:28.220 --> 00:09:30.019
a good opportunity for that. Battlefield Earth.

00:09:30.799 --> 00:09:35.639
But we're talking about bedrolls. That is a bedroll.

00:09:35.860 --> 00:09:37.440
I know, we're talking about bedrolls. We want

00:09:37.440 --> 00:09:40.879
to give three even movies to try to decide if

00:09:40.879 --> 00:09:43.039
he's a good actor or not. seen Saturday Night

00:09:43.039 --> 00:09:45.799
Fever and I've heard it's very, it's not what

00:09:45.799 --> 00:09:47.519
you think it's going to be. I like Saturday Night

00:09:47.519 --> 00:09:50.120
Fever. Yeah. Alright. Moving on. Next question.

00:09:50.320 --> 00:09:55.419
Next question. This one is a two -parter. Who

00:09:55.419 --> 00:09:58.159
would play you in a biopic or dramatization of

00:09:58.159 --> 00:10:01.659
your life? Question A. Question B. If someone

00:10:01.659 --> 00:10:04.799
were interviewed about you on a true crime podcast

00:10:04.799 --> 00:10:08.659
or show like Dateline, how would you not be described

00:10:08.659 --> 00:10:11.990
by a loved one? Because, you know, on Dateline,

00:10:12.049 --> 00:10:14.210
they're always like, hey, we're so sunny and

00:10:14.210 --> 00:10:17.690
happy and social. You two had a person that would

00:10:17.690 --> 00:10:20.629
play you. Yes. Start it off. Okay. I mean, mine's

00:10:20.629 --> 00:10:22.190
a very obvious one. I feel like, personally,

00:10:22.389 --> 00:10:24.750
it's going to be Michael Cera. Like, it's going

00:10:24.750 --> 00:10:29.990
to be nobody else besides her. Yeah. And mine

00:10:29.990 --> 00:10:35.000
is a more optimistic. Aubrey Plaza. Optimistic.

00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:37.980
Oh, that's fun. I like both of those picks. And

00:10:37.980 --> 00:10:41.059
the nice fun fact is that both of those picks

00:10:41.059 --> 00:10:43.580
dated each other in real life for a period, so,

00:10:43.740 --> 00:10:46.860
you know, really appropriate. I didn't know that.

00:10:47.519 --> 00:10:50.600
I had no clue about that. I don't know if it

00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:53.759
was a super long time, but yeah. Mitchell, who

00:10:53.759 --> 00:10:55.600
would play you? Let's answer this first question

00:10:55.600 --> 00:10:59.399
first. Yeah, look, honestly, and I wrote this

00:10:59.399 --> 00:11:03.480
down, and I told Kelly, One of my dreams in life

00:11:03.480 --> 00:11:06.759
is to wake up one day and look exactly like this

00:11:06.759 --> 00:11:09.919
man. And I know it'll never happen, but I am

00:11:09.919 --> 00:11:12.840
obscenely attracted to Henry Golding. And I think

00:11:12.840 --> 00:11:17.659
he's going to be in a movie. And for that, I

00:11:17.659 --> 00:11:20.139
can also say Jason Schwartzman. Jason Schwartzman,

00:11:20.179 --> 00:11:24.019
okay. But I see... Jason Schwartzman. Yeah. But

00:11:24.019 --> 00:11:28.340
I want attractive, so... Wait, okay. Correct

00:11:28.340 --> 00:11:31.320
me if I'm wrong, because I might be wrong. Was

00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:38.340
it? Wasn't he in Cinderella with Brandy? Henry

00:11:38.340 --> 00:11:40.240
Golding? Yeah. No, he would have been way too

00:11:40.240 --> 00:11:43.039
young. I don't know. Are you sure? It's a different

00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:46.539
actor. He came out in 1997. It's gotta be. And

00:11:46.539 --> 00:11:48.700
like Henry Golding is like what, maybe five years

00:11:48.700 --> 00:11:50.500
older? Yeah, he's in his 30s. He's in his 34s.

00:11:50.700 --> 00:11:52.379
I don't think he would have been active for that.

00:11:52.460 --> 00:11:55.480
Bummer. That actor is a very good looking man

00:11:55.480 --> 00:11:58.259
though. In Brandy's version of Cinderella. Okay,

00:11:58.299 --> 00:12:01.279
but you know who I'm talking about. Okay. I don't

00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:03.759
know who would play me. Macklemore. I know you

00:12:03.759 --> 00:12:10.179
said Macklemore. That sucks. So the one that

00:12:10.179 --> 00:12:14.840
stuck out to me that, so when, when like Facebook

00:12:14.840 --> 00:12:17.279
picture things were a thing, you had to find

00:12:17.279 --> 00:12:19.080
a celebrity that looked like you and you put

00:12:19.080 --> 00:12:21.220
as your Facebook profile picture for like a week,

00:12:21.220 --> 00:12:24.299
celebrity lookalike, Charlie Hunnam pre -fame

00:12:24.299 --> 00:12:28.929
looks like me. Okay. Pre -fame. Like, pre -muscles,

00:12:28.929 --> 00:12:30.529
pre -everything. Like, I'm trying to, I'm trying

00:12:30.529 --> 00:12:33.190
to, I'm looking up his images from before. Young

00:12:33.190 --> 00:12:35.429
Charlie Hunnam. But, like, what was his, like,

00:12:35.429 --> 00:12:39.049
before breakout role? Well, he was in Sons of

00:12:39.049 --> 00:12:40.970
Anarchy. Yeah, yeah. Sons of Anarchy would probably

00:12:40.970 --> 00:12:44.320
be. Oh, yep. But before that, he looked a lot

00:12:44.320 --> 00:12:46.919
like me because he used a smaller build. No,

00:12:46.980 --> 00:12:48.580
like, definitely, like, honestly, like, if we're

00:12:48.580 --> 00:12:50.740
getting a highly paid Hollywood actor, yes. Yeah,

00:12:50.740 --> 00:12:54.720
okay. Yeah, yeah. Charlie Hunnam is Mike B. Tanning.

00:12:54.720 --> 00:12:56.639
Yeah, definitely. He's too muscular for me. I'm

00:12:56.639 --> 00:12:58.860
into that. I'm really into that. Yeah, he's too

00:12:58.860 --> 00:13:01.539
muscular for me now, but I think a Charlie Hunnam

00:13:01.539 --> 00:13:04.100
would have been, yeah. Sure. Decent, decent Mike

00:13:04.100 --> 00:13:07.940
B. Tanning. Bias, but I, too, am into that. Charlie

00:13:07.940 --> 00:13:09.620
Hunnam's an attractive dude. He is an attractive

00:13:09.620 --> 00:13:13.059
dude. Yeah. Um, okay, so the words, what was

00:13:13.059 --> 00:13:16.940
it? Um, if someone were interviewed about you

00:13:16.940 --> 00:13:19.080
on a true crime show like Dateline, how should

00:13:19.080 --> 00:13:21.659
you not be described by your loved one? I have

00:13:21.659 --> 00:13:24.279
this. Do it. Manic and disattached from reality.

00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:30.799
Jeez. Wow. Wait, like, isn't this like the other,

00:13:30.919 --> 00:13:32.659
yeah, okay. How I would not want to be described

00:13:32.659 --> 00:13:37.240
is manic and disattached from reality. That is

00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:38.779
a tough question. I need to room it down on it

00:13:38.779 --> 00:13:40.639
for a second. Okay. Mitchell, you have something

00:13:40.639 --> 00:13:43.379
written down. I know. No, the only part of this

00:13:43.379 --> 00:13:45.259
question I answered was the actor thing. Okay.

00:13:45.980 --> 00:13:48.539
I'm the only one who had a ready answer. No,

00:13:48.700 --> 00:13:51.299
not at all. No, no, no. I gave you these questions

00:13:51.299 --> 00:13:52.980
ahead of time so that we could be ready, but

00:13:52.980 --> 00:13:55.100
yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, it's funny because I

00:13:55.100 --> 00:13:57.460
give you guys the questions and I don't prepare

00:13:57.460 --> 00:14:01.460
myself. Right. Well, so the question is if I'm

00:14:01.460 --> 00:14:03.620
like... If I'm, like, murdered and I'm on, like,

00:14:03.620 --> 00:14:05.620
a date night special or a date night special,

00:14:05.799 --> 00:14:08.740
it's like, oh, like, they were always so sociable

00:14:08.740 --> 00:14:10.480
and they were always so nice. And it's like when

00:14:10.480 --> 00:14:11.519
they're like, okay, no, they weren't that at

00:14:11.519 --> 00:14:13.299
all, right? It's like the opposite. Yeah. So

00:14:13.299 --> 00:14:14.679
then, yeah, it would just, it would definitely

00:14:14.679 --> 00:14:18.299
be personable. And I feel like, I don't even

00:14:18.299 --> 00:14:21.710
know, like. Life of the party? Yeah, maybe. I

00:14:21.710 --> 00:14:23.590
don't know. Yeah. Oh, life of the party. Because,

00:14:23.610 --> 00:14:25.370
like, when I'm with my friends that I know very

00:14:25.370 --> 00:14:27.669
well, I'm very sociable. Yeah. Yeah, but, like,

00:14:27.690 --> 00:14:29.909
you know, if I'm at a place that I'm not familiar

00:14:29.909 --> 00:14:31.490
with, definitely a wallflower, right? And no

00:14:31.490 --> 00:14:33.309
offense meant to this at all. Not taken, yeah.

00:14:33.970 --> 00:14:35.769
I wouldn't call you the life of the party. Right.

00:14:35.830 --> 00:14:38.110
No. No, I don't try to be. You are a very sociable

00:14:38.110 --> 00:14:42.070
person. Yes. But, like, I don't... Life of the

00:14:42.070 --> 00:14:44.370
party, to me, is the person that strives for

00:14:44.370 --> 00:14:46.610
attention. I think of myself more as life of

00:14:46.610 --> 00:14:48.289
the party because I strive for attention versus

00:14:48.289 --> 00:14:52.330
you. You could be the life of the party by accident.

00:14:53.409 --> 00:14:55.289
Okay, that's a good way to phrase it. That's

00:14:55.289 --> 00:14:58.009
a good way to phrase it. We're all talking about

00:14:58.009 --> 00:15:00.409
you like, oh man, Andre, look at this kid. Look

00:15:00.409 --> 00:15:02.669
at him. You know, like that kind of thing. You're

00:15:02.669 --> 00:15:05.539
not striving for that attention. So, I mean,

00:15:05.639 --> 00:15:07.220
you guys are also thinking about, like, the nice

00:15:07.220 --> 00:15:09.100
thing. That's why I want, like, manic and disassociated

00:15:09.100 --> 00:15:11.600
with reality, because, like, I interpreted the

00:15:11.600 --> 00:15:14.679
question as, like... maybe i'm not the dead person

00:15:14.679 --> 00:15:17.080
but i'm like i might be somehow tangentially

00:15:17.080 --> 00:15:19.580
involved it's like how would i not want to be

00:15:19.580 --> 00:15:21.879
described well like disassociated reality oh

00:15:21.879 --> 00:15:23.980
yeah i'm thinking like with jill it would be

00:15:23.980 --> 00:15:25.639
it would be like oh man like i don't know she

00:15:25.639 --> 00:15:27.940
was so she was always so quiet like didn't really

00:15:27.940 --> 00:15:30.320
hear much from her you know i mean like it's

00:15:30.320 --> 00:15:33.299
like what but you're still thinking like i don't

00:15:33.299 --> 00:15:35.360
know i'm i'm thinking it is the other extreme

00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:37.960
rather than being like they just don't understand

00:15:37.960 --> 00:15:39.779
my personality. No, I'm thinking as I'm framing

00:15:39.779 --> 00:15:43.139
my personality as, like, there were some eyebrows

00:15:43.139 --> 00:15:45.320
raised already. Well, what about, like, the first

00:15:45.320 --> 00:15:47.019
thing that came to my mind was, like, analytical.

00:15:47.379 --> 00:15:49.860
Because analytical can be taken both ways. Oh,

00:15:49.860 --> 00:15:51.559
sure. Like, if you're not the person who was,

00:15:51.600 --> 00:15:55.230
like, murdered, but if you're, like... Like you

00:15:55.230 --> 00:15:57.409
said, like, a part of it. Like, analytical, it

00:15:57.409 --> 00:15:58.730
could be either really good or really bad. Oh,

00:15:58.730 --> 00:16:00.129
so we're talking, like, she's the killer now.

00:16:00.129 --> 00:16:01.590
She's, like, the killer or, like, helped out

00:16:01.590 --> 00:16:03.529
the killer. He didn't specify it. He didn't specify

00:16:03.529 --> 00:16:05.649
it. He just wanted to say mannequin disassociated

00:16:05.649 --> 00:16:08.309
with reality. Oh, okay. So I never took it that

00:16:08.309 --> 00:16:10.409
way. I took it, like, I'm face down in a ditch

00:16:10.409 --> 00:16:12.429
somewhere, like. Yeah, me too. Me too. I took

00:16:12.429 --> 00:16:14.210
it as just, I have it. Like, I'm picturing, like,

00:16:14.330 --> 00:16:15.750
I'm picturing, like, like, pans of, like, my

00:16:15.750 --> 00:16:17.669
childhood photos in black and white and then,

00:16:17.690 --> 00:16:20.440
like, yeah, you know. Yeah. he doesn't yeah all

00:16:20.440 --> 00:16:23.480
right all right so like obsessive and quiet yeah

00:16:23.480 --> 00:16:26.519
yeah okay there you go okay so if we're going

00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:31.299
culprit okay like i would think i don't know

00:16:31.299 --> 00:16:33.120
i'm trying to think of what people would describe

00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:37.639
me as is like um Oh, he wouldn't hurt a fly or

00:16:37.639 --> 00:16:40.799
something like that. You know? Sure, right. Yeah,

00:16:40.879 --> 00:16:43.159
but I'm going the opposite way. Like, oh man,

00:16:43.220 --> 00:16:46.740
he was cold as shit. Advantageous and socially...

00:16:46.740 --> 00:16:50.019
Cold. Yeah. Socially narcissistic. Socially distant.

00:16:50.620 --> 00:16:53.799
Socially narcissistic definitely sounds like...

00:16:53.799 --> 00:16:56.539
Yeah. Yeah. That's a possible thing people could

00:16:56.539 --> 00:16:59.360
have described me as. There you go. We got...

00:16:59.360 --> 00:17:03.460
Next question. Oh, my turn. Because Mitchell

00:17:03.460 --> 00:17:04.480
didn't have something written down. Mitchell

00:17:04.480 --> 00:17:06.440
is clearly never going to be involved in a crime.

00:17:06.660 --> 00:17:10.480
Mitchell is too nice to be a killer or a kill.

00:17:10.740 --> 00:17:13.160
Mitchell is the guy who's going to fake an FBI

00:17:13.160 --> 00:17:16.819
permit and be like, yeah, I'm Detective Smith.

00:17:16.940 --> 00:17:19.799
I'm here to solve this. Okay, everything that's

00:17:19.799 --> 00:17:23.960
being said, that's my answer. This is why me

00:17:23.960 --> 00:17:27.119
murdering you is the perfect crime. That's it.

00:17:28.119 --> 00:17:32.940
Okay. If you could live inside of one movie the

00:17:32.940 --> 00:17:34.940
rest of your life, which would it be and why?

00:17:36.880 --> 00:17:41.559
Okay. Mitchell? Yeah, okay. So the second part

00:17:41.559 --> 00:17:43.420
to that question, like the full version, was

00:17:43.420 --> 00:17:45.619
they would like for it to be a horror movie,

00:17:45.700 --> 00:17:48.960
if possible. So I took that challenge, and this

00:17:48.960 --> 00:17:51.460
one's kind of a horror movie. It definitely plays

00:17:51.460 --> 00:17:53.859
on the horror tropes, which is why I love this

00:17:53.859 --> 00:17:55.480
movie so much, and I think I'd have a lot of

00:17:55.480 --> 00:17:58.279
fun playing with the tropes, is Cabin in the

00:17:58.279 --> 00:18:08.289
Woods. Sorry. making these horrors in this simulation

00:18:08.289 --> 00:18:12.130
or I'm one of the horror movie trope actors.

00:18:13.049 --> 00:18:17.170
Either way, as long as I'm cognizant that this

00:18:17.170 --> 00:18:19.589
is all made up and I could play around with it,

00:18:19.730 --> 00:18:21.549
I think it'd be a lot of fun. I've seen a lot

00:18:21.549 --> 00:18:24.269
of horror movies and I think just as long as

00:18:24.269 --> 00:18:27.750
I don't die, I'm going to have a blast playing

00:18:27.750 --> 00:18:30.009
with these creatures. So you'd be the stoner

00:18:30.009 --> 00:18:32.529
who figures it out. Right, okay, yeah, yeah,

00:18:32.529 --> 00:18:35.319
yeah. Does anybody else have an answer? Because

00:18:35.319 --> 00:18:38.380
I've got a few. So in Mitchell's vein, I picked

00:18:38.380 --> 00:18:40.900
a horror movie as well for mine. And it's not

00:18:40.900 --> 00:18:42.480
a very well -known, well, whatever. It's Stay

00:18:42.480 --> 00:18:44.740
Alive. It's a shitty B -horror movie. I love

00:18:44.740 --> 00:18:46.799
Stay Alive! Great, so Jill's with me on this

00:18:46.799 --> 00:18:48.099
one. You're going to hang out with Frankie Muniz?

00:18:48.140 --> 00:18:49.559
Yes, right. I feel like I would too. So Stay

00:18:49.559 --> 00:18:53.640
Alive is... His stupid voice. Yeah. So it's a

00:18:53.640 --> 00:18:55.900
horror movie that's just like you die in the

00:18:55.900 --> 00:18:57.440
game, you die for real. They're trapped in an

00:18:57.440 --> 00:19:00.890
online video game. So bad. It's a terrible movie.

00:19:01.269 --> 00:19:02.589
Melvin Dominguez in it for like five minutes.

00:19:03.430 --> 00:19:05.930
Melvin Dominguez in this? For five minutes. What?

00:19:06.170 --> 00:19:07.670
Yeah, no, it's bad. This is not an endorsement

00:19:07.670 --> 00:19:09.049
of the movie. I'm just saying I'm pretty confident

00:19:09.049 --> 00:19:10.650
that I could do better at it than Frankie Muniz

00:19:10.650 --> 00:19:13.569
did. He falls into a flower bush and he's fine.

00:19:13.829 --> 00:19:18.930
Yeah, whatever. Well, yeah, it's an isekai film,

00:19:19.029 --> 00:19:21.529
as it were, trapped in another world. It's, you

00:19:21.529 --> 00:19:24.109
know, I would say House of Wax is the more entertaining

00:19:24.109 --> 00:19:26.670
film, but, like, Stay Alive is just dumb. I'm

00:19:26.670 --> 00:19:29.130
more confident in my abilities to make it in

00:19:29.130 --> 00:19:32.130
Stay Alive, so that's my answer. I have an answer

00:19:32.130 --> 00:19:33.509
that's not a horror film, if I could just be

00:19:33.509 --> 00:19:36.549
in a movie, and it's my life. Mr. Mongorium's

00:19:36.549 --> 00:19:40.329
Wonder Emporium, because I am all about the childlike

00:19:40.329 --> 00:19:43.230
wonder here, and have maintained my childhood

00:19:43.230 --> 00:19:47.089
innocence in ways. And I love the idea of this

00:19:47.089 --> 00:19:50.890
magical toy store that has just deep philosophical

00:19:50.890 --> 00:19:53.869
ruminations on life and death and, you know,

00:19:53.890 --> 00:19:55.769
never losing sight of your inner child and all

00:19:55.769 --> 00:19:57.349
of the things that can come with that. Because

00:19:57.349 --> 00:20:01.990
if you remain innocent and hopeful, good things

00:20:01.990 --> 00:20:04.910
will still come to you. And if there is this

00:20:04.910 --> 00:20:07.430
toy store and you still have those sides to yourself,

00:20:07.549 --> 00:20:10.230
you can enjoy this to the fullest versus being

00:20:10.230 --> 00:20:13.460
someone who's aged out of it and, you know. A

00:20:13.460 --> 00:20:16.259
block of wood is just a block of wood to them,

00:20:16.339 --> 00:20:19.559
but to you, it's all this possibility. And you've

00:20:19.559 --> 00:20:23.720
got Dustin Hoffman as a zany old man in this

00:20:23.720 --> 00:20:27.819
wackadoo toy store. Why not? Okay, so I've got

00:20:27.819 --> 00:20:30.960
a regular answer and a horror movie answer. So

00:20:30.960 --> 00:20:33.859
the regular answer would be The Italian Job.

00:20:34.299 --> 00:20:37.140
Oh, I've seen that now. Marky Mark? Marky Mark.

00:20:37.339 --> 00:20:39.359
No, I'm going Marky Mark version. I love that

00:20:39.359 --> 00:20:41.799
film. I'm going to drive a PT Cougar. What color

00:20:41.799 --> 00:20:44.819
is your car? Yeah, which Cooper, what color Cooper

00:20:44.819 --> 00:20:45.859
do you have? I think I'm going yellow. Okay.

00:20:45.920 --> 00:20:47.539
Yeah, I think I'm going yellow with that one.

00:20:47.579 --> 00:20:49.640
I thought about the red, but the red's just too

00:20:49.640 --> 00:20:51.579
easy to spot. You gotta go yellow. It's crazy,

00:20:51.740 --> 00:20:55.150
but yeah. Yeah, because yellow's... I know. Yeah,

00:20:55.849 --> 00:20:57.710
I know. Yeah, right. Those school buses, they

00:20:57.710 --> 00:21:00.890
don't want people to see those. You're just a

00:21:00.890 --> 00:21:03.490
summer woohoo girl. Yeah, right. I used to have

00:21:03.490 --> 00:21:06.230
a yellow car. It is a lot of fun. Yeah, exactly.

00:21:06.569 --> 00:21:09.349
It's just bright and cheery. But that movie was

00:21:09.349 --> 00:21:11.809
just so cool, even though they're driving minis.

00:21:12.049 --> 00:21:15.130
You want to hang out with these people. That

00:21:15.130 --> 00:21:19.890
is the movie for me, I think. Horror movie? I

00:21:19.890 --> 00:21:23.470
think I'm going... That's what I was going to

00:21:23.470 --> 00:21:25.049
say if I had to do a horror film. Scream seems

00:21:25.049 --> 00:21:27.750
very doable. I like Scream, and then, like, I

00:21:27.750 --> 00:21:29.930
would be the Randy. I would follow the rules.

00:21:30.109 --> 00:21:32.069
Like, I know the horror movie rules. Right. You

00:21:32.069 --> 00:21:34.210
know, so I would follow those rules once I started

00:21:34.210 --> 00:21:36.789
learning that, oh, they had sex, they died. Okay.

00:21:38.230 --> 00:21:40.809
Chesty belt? Yeah, let's go. Put on the chesty

00:21:40.809 --> 00:21:43.710
belt. But, you know, like, I think that would

00:21:43.710 --> 00:21:46.150
be the... Yeah. Yeah. If I'm going to be in a

00:21:46.150 --> 00:21:48.289
horror movie, I'll join in on this. I'll either

00:21:48.289 --> 00:21:51.779
do, like, Ready or Not, or... Yeah. Halloween.

00:21:51.779 --> 00:21:55.200
Okay. I'm, like, I might be small in stature

00:21:55.200 --> 00:21:57.259
and all of that, but, like, you know what? If

00:21:57.259 --> 00:21:59.200
the gloves are coming off and it's life and death,

00:21:59.400 --> 00:22:02.400
give me a shotgun, give me a katana, I'm ready

00:22:02.400 --> 00:22:06.279
to go. Just study the blade. So I still have

00:22:06.279 --> 00:22:10.619
not seen Ready or Not. It's good. That actress,

00:22:10.779 --> 00:22:12.579
I can't remember the actress's name, but, like,

00:22:12.619 --> 00:22:15.880
she knows exactly her niche film and she's great.

00:22:16.119 --> 00:22:19.359
Claire, not biggest horror fan. I dislike horror

00:22:19.359 --> 00:22:21.359
movies with a passion. How would you describe

00:22:21.359 --> 00:22:23.220
it? You're not. It's really good. It's not that

00:22:23.220 --> 00:22:26.279
scary. I mean, it's not scary. No. It's my version

00:22:26.279 --> 00:22:27.079
of scary. Because I didn't think it was a horror

00:22:27.079 --> 00:22:29.700
movie. No, it's not. It's like horror comedy.

00:22:29.960 --> 00:22:33.980
It's the same as like Happy Death Day or that

00:22:33.980 --> 00:22:36.799
Vince Vaughn movie. Freaky. Freaky, yeah. It's

00:22:36.799 --> 00:22:39.500
in that, it's in this new line of horror film

00:22:39.500 --> 00:22:42.880
of like, it's not full horror, but there's tongue

00:22:42.880 --> 00:22:45.400
-in -cheek humor. More like Tucker and Dale versus

00:22:45.400 --> 00:22:47.579
evil. Oh, that was another one that I thought

00:22:47.579 --> 00:22:49.319
about picking. I just want to give Tucker and

00:22:49.319 --> 00:22:51.640
Dale a hug. I would be your redneck versus, like,

00:22:51.680 --> 00:22:54.339
the kids. Oh, the crazy guy who's like, yeah,

00:22:54.359 --> 00:22:56.920
I'm down to kill. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, yeah,

00:22:57.019 --> 00:22:58.759
yeah. Tucker and Dale versus evil is another

00:22:58.759 --> 00:23:02.220
one I thought about. So, are we re -drinking?

00:23:02.619 --> 00:23:04.180
I'm just adding ice. Don't worry. Can you top

00:23:04.180 --> 00:23:05.740
me off? Can you give me a champagne floater?

00:23:05.900 --> 00:23:09.099
All right. Champagne popper. Do it. You're popping

00:23:09.099 --> 00:23:12.380
it. Okay. Oh, yeah? Yeah. Yeah. Close my ears.

00:23:12.599 --> 00:23:15.059
Pop it next to the microphone. No. No, no, no,

00:23:15.140 --> 00:23:17.859
no. All right, then I'll do it. Oh. Okay. I'm

00:23:17.859 --> 00:23:20.440
not afraid. Okay, if your computer crashes, we

00:23:20.440 --> 00:23:21.920
know what to do. Yeah, it's on you and I'm going

00:23:21.920 --> 00:23:23.400
back to it. I'm going next to the microphone,

00:23:23.579 --> 00:23:24.920
but ask the next question because it's going

00:23:24.920 --> 00:23:30.079
to take me a while to unwrap. Okay. Wow. What

00:23:30.079 --> 00:23:33.640
is the worst movie of all time? Wow, that is

00:23:33.640 --> 00:23:35.000
a... I like the second part of the question is

00:23:35.000 --> 00:23:37.500
what movie... The franchise? Like, what movie?

00:23:37.539 --> 00:23:40.119
No, that's it. This is the single part. Yeah,

00:23:40.140 --> 00:23:41.819
you're early for that one. The worst movie of

00:23:41.819 --> 00:23:46.240
all time? That's a hard question. Yeah, it's

00:23:46.240 --> 00:23:49.079
objectively hard. Yeah. So I'll just, I'll start,

00:23:49.319 --> 00:23:53.200
and I'll say this. I view this as being asked,

00:23:53.299 --> 00:23:56.579
in a similar way of being asked, what's your

00:23:56.579 --> 00:23:58.539
favorite movie of all time? Because if you're

00:23:58.539 --> 00:24:01.039
out here saying Citizen Kane or The Godfather,

00:24:01.140 --> 00:24:03.579
you probably don't have a personality. You know

00:24:03.579 --> 00:24:05.809
what I mean? Yeah. You know what I mean? your

00:24:05.809 --> 00:24:07.890
favorite movie of all time should be something

00:24:07.890 --> 00:24:10.430
that is, of course, great on its own, but also

00:24:10.430 --> 00:24:12.650
you have a personal connection with. So, when

00:24:12.650 --> 00:24:14.890
I'm talking about the worst... Pause, Mitchell.

00:24:15.009 --> 00:24:19.390
Pause for pop. Okay. Oh, wow. That was loud.

00:24:19.769 --> 00:24:25.029
Nice. Blast out your mic. So, if I'm being asked

00:24:25.029 --> 00:24:26.910
what's the worst movie of all time, I need to

00:24:26.910 --> 00:24:29.650
consider something that I felt personally offended

00:24:29.650 --> 00:24:32.089
by when I watched it. Right. And preferably...

00:24:32.759 --> 00:24:34.779
if I watched it in a theater because I actually

00:24:34.779 --> 00:24:39.140
paid money to see it. That movie, unequivocally,

00:24:39.140 --> 00:24:41.819
of the past 10 years that I can remember being

00:24:41.819 --> 00:24:45.099
so upset after watching a movie was Batman v.

00:24:45.160 --> 00:24:48.640
Superman, Dawn of Justice. Wow. You took my answer,

00:24:48.740 --> 00:24:52.890
man. What the hell? tag team this thing it deserves

00:24:52.890 --> 00:24:54.950
to be mentioned more than once for worst movie

00:24:54.950 --> 00:24:56.970
of all time it's so bad and this is why I can

00:24:56.970 --> 00:24:59.650
never get behind Zack Snyder's like versions

00:24:59.650 --> 00:25:03.269
of DCEU because it's basically a character assassination

00:25:03.269 --> 00:25:05.970
I feel like of both Batman and Superman right

00:25:05.970 --> 00:25:08.569
I don't know it's anyways go off Mitchell it's

00:25:08.569 --> 00:25:11.069
your pick yeah so it's one of those things where

00:25:11.069 --> 00:25:14.150
I remember hyping this movie up in my head, wanting

00:25:14.150 --> 00:25:17.670
to believe that Zack Snyder could actually deliver

00:25:17.670 --> 00:25:19.349
because he was such a fan of the comics. And

00:25:19.349 --> 00:25:21.470
I understood that watching Man of Steel. And

00:25:21.470 --> 00:25:23.910
now that they're introducing Batman, I'm like,

00:25:23.970 --> 00:25:25.910
okay, he's going to have a Frank Miller type

00:25:25.910 --> 00:25:28.990
of Batman in this movie. Yeah. Who I think is,

00:25:29.049 --> 00:25:31.369
you know, a fine actor. And let's just go and

00:25:31.369 --> 00:25:33.750
see what happens. And then the plot develops.

00:25:34.380 --> 00:25:38.700
And we get everything from Lex Luthor and his

00:25:38.700 --> 00:25:41.059
portrayal with Jesse Eisenberg. And then we get

00:25:41.059 --> 00:25:45.440
everything with how Batman is, he is a vengeful

00:25:45.440 --> 00:25:48.400
spirit, don't get me wrong. But when we're talking

00:25:48.400 --> 00:25:50.799
about this movie, we are just introduced to him

00:25:50.799 --> 00:25:53.180
in this universe, having really no explanation

00:25:53.180 --> 00:25:56.140
or any grounding as to why he is such a raging

00:25:56.140 --> 00:25:58.900
asshole in this. He's not a hero. And then we

00:25:58.900 --> 00:26:03.420
go over to Superman and the whole... the whole

00:26:03.420 --> 00:26:05.359
plot point that doomsday is the only thing that

00:26:05.359 --> 00:26:08.619
can kill him the only reason why we think that

00:26:08.619 --> 00:26:11.000
is because it happened in the comics i again

00:26:11.000 --> 00:26:14.359
i just don't feel that there is enough work to

00:26:14.359 --> 00:26:16.500
actually hold up any of the plot points that

00:26:16.500 --> 00:26:18.940
they're trying to drive and then of course we

00:26:18.940 --> 00:26:22.160
get the martha line which is still infamous and

00:26:22.160 --> 00:26:24.619
talked about on the internet to this day why

00:26:24.619 --> 00:26:28.940
did you say that name why'd you pick that movie

00:26:28.940 --> 00:26:32.829
oh i could i think my head was on a swivel that

00:26:32.829 --> 00:26:34.809
entire movie because I just kept shaking my head

00:26:34.809 --> 00:26:37.470
no for two and a half hours that's another thing

00:26:37.470 --> 00:26:41.210
it had the audacity to be that long and we got

00:26:41.210 --> 00:26:43.950
a four hour movie now and then people had the

00:26:43.950 --> 00:26:46.849
audacity to say oh no just wait for the director's

00:26:46.849 --> 00:26:48.710
cut we'll add half an hour to this two and a

00:26:48.710 --> 00:26:50.430
half hour movie and we'll make it so much better

00:26:50.430 --> 00:26:55.210
and I'm like okay whatever yeah that is the Zack

00:26:55.210 --> 00:26:59.000
Snyder bro defense Oh, that wasn't the director's

00:26:59.000 --> 00:27:02.539
cut. That's how we get the Snyder Cut. That was

00:27:02.539 --> 00:27:05.960
his real vision. Having defended the Twitter

00:27:05.960 --> 00:27:10.180
now because I've been attacked by the Snyder

00:27:10.180 --> 00:27:14.259
Bros. I just want to say, you can be a fan of

00:27:14.259 --> 00:27:18.339
the Snyderverse. You can be a fan. And I am not

00:27:18.339 --> 00:27:20.740
attacking you personally when I tweet something

00:27:20.740 --> 00:27:26.890
about the Snyder Cut. Because... Literally, we

00:27:26.890 --> 00:27:30.170
have been attacked by Snyder Bros. That is who

00:27:30.170 --> 00:27:32.150
we are attacked by. We are attacked by the people

00:27:32.150 --> 00:27:36.529
that just go to bat for this guy. Versus understanding

00:27:36.529 --> 00:27:40.049
what we're saying. I don't think I need to watch

00:27:40.049 --> 00:27:45.170
a four hour movie to defend this movie. No, it's

00:27:45.170 --> 00:27:48.289
not worth it. Nothing is worth four hours. Maybe

00:27:48.289 --> 00:27:50.470
show up. But, like, that's a completely different

00:27:50.470 --> 00:27:52.329
film. I just, I don't know. I feel like because

00:27:52.329 --> 00:27:54.369
of that, like, I feel like people think, I feel

00:27:54.369 --> 00:27:56.269
like there's, like, a kind of consensus out there

00:27:56.269 --> 00:27:58.150
that Superman is not, I feel like Superman is

00:27:58.150 --> 00:28:00.849
not as popular as he should be because he hasn't

00:28:00.849 --> 00:28:02.450
been portrayed in the movies as well as he could

00:28:02.450 --> 00:28:03.990
have been, right? I mean, I hate Superman, so

00:28:03.990 --> 00:28:05.109
you're not, you're not. Turn to the animated

00:28:05.109 --> 00:28:06.950
universe. That's what I mean. Well, okay, yes,

00:28:07.049 --> 00:28:08.549
but those are, I mean, they are, they're pretty

00:28:08.549 --> 00:28:10.730
popular, but they're not, they're not blockbuster

00:28:10.730 --> 00:28:14.349
movie popular, right? You know? You can't convince

00:28:14.349 --> 00:28:16.509
me right now that Superman is a character that

00:28:16.509 --> 00:28:19.970
I like in any way, shape, or form. There is a

00:28:19.970 --> 00:28:21.769
version, I don't even know, I guess whatever.

00:28:21.910 --> 00:28:25.849
This sounds mean being armchair quarterbacking

00:28:25.849 --> 00:28:29.369
the movie, but All -Star Superman, easy. Read

00:28:29.369 --> 00:28:32.390
that. That is the best Superman story ever told,

00:28:32.470 --> 00:28:36.589
is All -Star Superman. What about Red Son? Red

00:28:36.589 --> 00:28:40.569
Sun's fine, but it leans into the aspect of Superman

00:28:40.569 --> 00:28:42.769
that, oh, we got to make it dark. Right, right,

00:28:42.809 --> 00:28:45.730
right. No, no, no. It's always like, oh, what

00:28:45.730 --> 00:28:48.269
if Superman but evil? And that's a cool story,

00:28:48.609 --> 00:28:50.690
but we explored it a lot of times. We're going

00:28:50.690 --> 00:28:52.450
on a nerd tangent. Yeah, I know. Well, you played

00:28:52.450 --> 00:28:54.170
Injustice, right? Yeah, yeah. So you got that

00:28:54.170 --> 00:28:55.250
covered. I would say All -Stars were made before.

00:28:55.250 --> 00:28:58.109
I like Injustice, Superman. I'm going to throw

00:28:58.109 --> 00:29:02.210
in my movie. Okay, go for it. So caveat here,

00:29:02.309 --> 00:29:05.309
preface, I guess. I really like the book. I understand

00:29:05.309 --> 00:29:08.269
that the book is not for everybody, but it hits

00:29:08.269 --> 00:29:09.950
all the endorphins for me. Ready Player One,

00:29:09.990 --> 00:29:13.349
the film. I saw that in theater with a friend

00:29:13.349 --> 00:29:19.890
and was furious. Because I like the way the story

00:29:19.890 --> 00:29:22.150
of the book works. I didn't understand why they

00:29:22.150 --> 00:29:23.990
had to change a lot of the plot components, why

00:29:23.990 --> 00:29:31.859
they had to make the... the creator of the, not

00:29:31.859 --> 00:29:35.240
the OC, the virtual world. The Oasis. The Oasis.

00:29:35.299 --> 00:29:39.160
Why they had to make him. The OC. Way more. Take

00:29:39.160 --> 00:29:42.359
your virtual world of the OC. Sorry. Why they

00:29:42.359 --> 00:29:46.559
had to change the creator. You know what? Adam

00:29:46.559 --> 00:29:49.640
Brody would have been fine. I didn't understand

00:29:49.640 --> 00:29:51.440
why they had to make the creator of the Oasis

00:29:51.440 --> 00:29:55.799
way, like, yeah, yeah, he got more fleshed out,

00:29:55.900 --> 00:30:01.799
James Holliday, but, His obsession with Ogden

00:30:01.799 --> 00:30:04.980
Morrow's wife, who's now deceased, is strange.

00:30:05.319 --> 00:30:07.660
Okay. Even though in the book that is a component

00:30:07.660 --> 00:30:10.559
to it, but it's treated much more delicate. I

00:30:10.559 --> 00:30:15.039
really hated the way that they casted Artemis

00:30:15.039 --> 00:30:17.599
and how she's supposed to be repulsive, even

00:30:17.599 --> 00:30:19.920
though she is a very beautiful woman with a port

00:30:19.920 --> 00:30:23.440
wine stain on her face. And fine. And just the

00:30:23.440 --> 00:30:27.490
story of the quest. Why did they change it? because

00:30:27.490 --> 00:30:30.029
they could yeah i get that so how is it like

00:30:30.029 --> 00:30:32.589
i understand something like because steven spielberg

00:30:32.589 --> 00:30:35.269
directed this yeah and there are things where

00:30:35.269 --> 00:30:38.670
like for example i i understand that the shining

00:30:38.670 --> 00:30:42.309
sequence was on the book nope um but i also feel

00:30:42.309 --> 00:30:44.029
that that was probably the best part of the movie

00:30:44.029 --> 00:30:46.450
because steven spielberg actually had an affection

00:30:46.450 --> 00:30:49.109
for that ip it was just like oh this is something

00:30:49.109 --> 00:30:51.740
that speaks to me everything else it felt like

00:30:51.740 --> 00:30:54.839
oh kids like mecha godzilla like or iron giant

00:30:54.839 --> 00:30:57.160
yeah yeah throw the iron giant in there we get

00:30:57.160 --> 00:30:59.220
the rights to them right i have read the book

00:30:59.220 --> 00:31:02.579
okay the reason is and let's just call it what

00:31:02.579 --> 00:31:05.700
it is money yeah money branding very very simple

00:31:05.700 --> 00:31:07.660
yeah they couldn't have done so the way that

00:31:07.660 --> 00:31:09.259
it works in the book is that there are the three

00:31:09.259 --> 00:31:11.700
stages of the quest but within each stage is

00:31:11.700 --> 00:31:15.480
like mini stages so find a house to find a thing

00:31:16.220 --> 00:31:18.859
opens up a portal and then suddenly he has to

00:31:18.859 --> 00:31:21.900
play through the entire version the entire film

00:31:21.900 --> 00:31:24.000
of war games as matthew broderick's character

00:31:24.000 --> 00:31:28.220
and then the next two parts are find a thing

00:31:28.220 --> 00:31:33.099
do a thing do a third thing get a key and as

00:31:33.099 --> 00:31:35.099
a book especially if you listen to the audio

00:31:35.099 --> 00:31:37.079
version with will whedon reading it it's great

00:31:37.079 --> 00:31:40.839
it makes sense but as a film it's not it's slow

00:31:40.839 --> 00:31:44.109
it's clunky And then there is all of the internal

00:31:44.109 --> 00:31:47.579
monologue of Wade, which... Yes. has problems

00:31:47.579 --> 00:31:50.099
in its own, but that does not transfer over well

00:31:50.099 --> 00:31:51.400
into the film. No, it doesn't. The way that they

00:31:51.400 --> 00:31:54.599
did the film, though, is just people like these

00:31:54.599 --> 00:31:57.339
IPs. How many can we fit on the screen at one

00:31:57.339 --> 00:32:00.480
time? And this is why we got Steven Spielberg,

00:32:00.539 --> 00:32:02.720
because he has IPs. And also, what do we need

00:32:02.720 --> 00:32:04.619
to do to get the women in? What do we need to

00:32:04.619 --> 00:32:06.259
do to have a villain that's actually not that

00:32:06.259 --> 00:32:09.019
scary, but is enough of a mustachio twirling

00:32:09.019 --> 00:32:11.460
tool to be like, yeah, we don't like that guy.

00:32:12.880 --> 00:32:16.259
Mustachio twirling tool. Yeah. It's true, though.

00:32:16.359 --> 00:32:19.119
He used his computer code on his stupid chair.

00:32:19.180 --> 00:32:23.059
How dumb is he? I'm not disagreeing. I just find

00:32:23.059 --> 00:32:24.740
it funny. I just remember during the final battle

00:32:24.740 --> 00:32:27.799
of the film, and I guess in the book as well,

00:32:27.920 --> 00:32:29.559
my friend turned to me in the theater. He's like,

00:32:29.660 --> 00:32:32.059
isn't this the coolest thing ever? And I just

00:32:32.059 --> 00:32:36.039
was like, you're fucking kidding me, right? So

00:32:36.039 --> 00:32:38.940
I enjoyed the movie. I agree there's problems

00:32:38.940 --> 00:32:42.380
with it. But I enjoyed it overall. This rage

00:32:42.380 --> 00:32:45.640
has sparked an answer for me. Okay. And it's

00:32:45.640 --> 00:32:46.940
a pretty obvious one, and I think I don't want

00:32:46.940 --> 00:32:48.319
to talk about it too much because we might watch

00:32:48.319 --> 00:32:50.579
it for an episode later, and that is The Last

00:32:50.579 --> 00:32:53.440
Airbender. It's so boring. Oh, yeah. It is so

00:32:53.440 --> 00:32:55.500
bad. Well, I was going to say, originally, Batman

00:32:55.500 --> 00:32:59.640
and Robin is, like, my worst. Sure. Because it's

00:32:59.640 --> 00:33:03.019
also boring. Yes. So, The Last Airbender, again,

00:33:03.160 --> 00:33:06.279
we... We're going to watch it. We are. We're

00:33:06.279 --> 00:33:08.059
planning on watching it, right? Oh, it's still

00:33:08.059 --> 00:33:10.279
happening. I haven't drawn the bingo rules. Where

00:33:10.279 --> 00:33:12.180
do you go? So, like, obviously, I mean, Jill

00:33:12.180 --> 00:33:14.160
and I, we're huge fans. Is that episode 45? That

00:33:14.160 --> 00:33:17.240
might be. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, like, obviously,

00:33:17.279 --> 00:33:19.839
we're huge fans of the original Avenue to Life's

00:33:19.839 --> 00:33:21.740
Airbender show. I like Korra a lot. I will always

00:33:21.740 --> 00:33:23.380
go back to Legend of Korra. So, anyways, very

00:33:23.380 --> 00:33:25.420
invested in that universe. And then that's definitely

00:33:25.420 --> 00:33:27.900
the movie that I didn't even watch it in theaters

00:33:27.900 --> 00:33:30.400
because I heard it was so bad. But we watched

00:33:30.400 --> 00:33:31.740
it. I watched it with a group of friends that

00:33:31.740 --> 00:33:33.660
were big fans of the show, like, as a joke. We're

00:33:33.660 --> 00:33:35.940
like, oh man, we'll have a few drinks, we'll

00:33:35.940 --> 00:33:37.380
laugh, we'll make fun of this movie. It'll be

00:33:37.380 --> 00:33:41.059
a good time. And it wasn't even that. I am so

00:33:41.059 --> 00:33:43.119
glad you brought this up because I saved a meme

00:33:43.119 --> 00:33:45.619
that I'm going to post on our Twitter and I'm

00:33:45.619 --> 00:33:49.000
going to tag you in because it's literally post

00:33:49.000 --> 00:33:51.660
a meme that would piss off your co -host and

00:33:51.660 --> 00:33:55.019
it is this. It is related to this. You will see

00:33:55.019 --> 00:33:59.299
it after this episode. After I post the episode,

00:33:59.599 --> 00:34:01.279
you will see it because I'm going to tag you

00:34:01.279 --> 00:34:03.640
in it. I'm going to tag everybody in it. This

00:34:03.640 --> 00:34:06.200
movie is problematic for a lot of reasons. We

00:34:06.200 --> 00:34:09.340
already discussed it, but... We'll have thoughts

00:34:09.340 --> 00:34:11.639
on episode 45. Yeah, we're right. So I won't

00:34:11.639 --> 00:34:13.320
dig into it too much, but anyways, Last Airbender,

00:34:13.420 --> 00:34:16.300
not even fun to watch drunk and making fun of

00:34:16.300 --> 00:34:18.960
it, right? Fails on even that level, so it's

00:34:18.960 --> 00:34:21.360
bad. And I don't think you need to hear... an

00:34:21.360 --> 00:34:22.940
explanation of my answer, but the worst movie

00:34:22.940 --> 00:34:25.300
ever is Yoga Hosers. Yes. It is a big old fuck

00:34:25.300 --> 00:34:26.639
you to the audience. Check out our previous episode

00:34:26.639 --> 00:34:30.199
where Mike watched Yoga Hosers. Yeah. Mike was

00:34:30.199 --> 00:34:32.900
so miserable. I could tell you about this movie

00:34:32.900 --> 00:34:35.900
and say all the things, but the number one thing

00:34:35.900 --> 00:34:38.400
that comes down to why it's the worst movie is

00:34:38.400 --> 00:34:40.719
because the director made it as a big old fuck

00:34:40.719 --> 00:34:43.139
you to everybody. I hate films that are like,

00:34:43.260 --> 00:34:46.599
my intention was to give, like, people give me

00:34:46.599 --> 00:34:49.099
shit for doing films this way, so I'm gonna do

00:34:49.099 --> 00:34:52.710
the thing, all the things. that I never... We're

00:34:52.710 --> 00:34:54.309
just bringing up Zack Snyder again with Sucker

00:34:54.309 --> 00:34:57.570
Punch. This movie was created because somebody

00:34:57.570 --> 00:35:01.030
called him a yoga hoser. He made the movie. It

00:35:01.030 --> 00:35:03.809
is a big old fuck you. There is Nazi sausages.

00:35:04.170 --> 00:35:08.550
Fuck this movie. Okay. That is it. We're going

00:35:08.550 --> 00:35:10.309
to move to the next question because I could

00:35:10.309 --> 00:35:12.550
get on a rant about this, but really... Check

00:35:12.550 --> 00:35:14.369
out our episode. Yeah, check out our episode.

00:35:15.699 --> 00:35:17.659
Before I move on to the next question, just want

00:35:17.659 --> 00:35:19.760
to say shout out to Ashland, Ohio, because the

00:35:19.760 --> 00:35:22.219
author of Ready Player One and Ready Player Two

00:35:22.219 --> 00:35:24.000
is from Ashland. And that's why it takes place

00:35:24.000 --> 00:35:26.679
in Columbus, Ohio. It does. The desolate city

00:35:26.679 --> 00:35:28.599
of Columbus, Ohio. While I have not read the

00:35:28.599 --> 00:35:30.719
second book, I will eventually by checking out

00:35:30.719 --> 00:35:32.920
of my local library. Support libraries. Support

00:35:32.920 --> 00:35:35.239
libraries. My mom is from Ashland, and my whole

00:35:35.239 --> 00:35:38.019
family is from there. He's a local hero. Go Ashland,

00:35:38.019 --> 00:35:41.039
Ohio. Okay, anyways. Next question. What defines

00:35:41.039 --> 00:35:43.099
good acting? I thought we were just going to

00:35:43.099 --> 00:35:45.300
do this one. I think we're skipping this one.

00:35:45.619 --> 00:35:49.079
Yeah, we're skipping this one. Mitchell has an

00:35:49.079 --> 00:35:51.199
answer. Mitchell will answer for all of us. And

00:35:51.199 --> 00:35:55.019
we'll edit out some other parts. Now, I've re

00:35:55.019 --> 00:35:58.539
-read this answer while this was building up,

00:35:58.599 --> 00:36:00.940
and it definitely needs to be fleshed out more,

00:36:01.019 --> 00:36:03.420
but I think there's some truth here. So, alright,

00:36:03.599 --> 00:36:06.500
quote. If I can forget that I'm watching someone

00:36:06.500 --> 00:36:09.480
act. That's simple. If you're getting an emotional

00:36:09.480 --> 00:36:11.800
response out of me by what you're saying or what

00:36:11.800 --> 00:36:13.880
you're doing, then you're doing a good job. It

00:36:13.880 --> 00:36:15.840
has nothing to do with changing your appearance

00:36:15.840 --> 00:36:19.880
or voice or mannerisms. An example of that would

00:36:19.880 --> 00:36:22.599
be the different portrayals of Steve Jobs by

00:36:22.599 --> 00:36:24.960
Ashton Kutcher and Michael Fassbender. Okay?

00:36:25.159 --> 00:36:27.579
Did you guys see either of these movies? Nope.

00:36:28.500 --> 00:36:31.159
I've heard about the Ashton Kutcher version.

00:36:32.079 --> 00:36:34.480
Yeah, okay, so here's the deal. Kutcher was a

00:36:34.480 --> 00:36:37.400
big fan of Steve Jobs, like, personally. So his

00:36:37.400 --> 00:36:40.639
portrayal was... imitating him almost down to

00:36:40.639 --> 00:36:42.940
the T with how he walked, how he inflected his

00:36:42.940 --> 00:36:45.920
voice. Michael Fassbender was less concerned

00:36:45.920 --> 00:36:49.320
with imitating Steve Jobs and more concerned

00:36:49.320 --> 00:36:52.099
with being the character, who is a man who is

00:36:52.099 --> 00:36:55.300
so singularly focused on work that he failed

00:36:55.300 --> 00:36:57.760
as a father and had to reckon with that throughout

00:36:57.760 --> 00:37:00.860
the movie. So that's what it comes down to for

00:37:00.860 --> 00:37:02.599
me. Are you saying something that feels truthful?

00:37:03.179 --> 00:37:05.820
Am I forgetting? Why, Russell, I forget that

00:37:05.820 --> 00:37:08.190
you're playing John Walker. I feel like you killed

00:37:08.190 --> 00:37:11.929
that guy. You know what I mean? As a recent example,

00:37:12.150 --> 00:37:16.969
if you're not in that space and I feel like you're

00:37:16.969 --> 00:37:20.230
just reciting lines or you're just freaking mailing

00:37:20.230 --> 00:37:22.769
it in just to cash in a check, which is very

00:37:22.769 --> 00:37:25.369
often in a lot of these big budget films, then

00:37:25.369 --> 00:37:29.449
a bad acting performance can come from a great

00:37:29.449 --> 00:37:31.659
actor. You know what I mean? I'm going to piggyback

00:37:31.659 --> 00:37:34.760
off of that and say absolutely. Thinking of Frank

00:37:34.760 --> 00:37:38.239
Langella as Richard Nixon and Frost V. Nixon.

00:37:39.440 --> 00:37:42.360
Because Frank Langella does not look at all like

00:37:42.360 --> 00:37:46.059
Richard Nixon. Period. But he studied the way

00:37:46.059 --> 00:37:48.599
that he talked. He definitely did his research

00:37:48.599 --> 00:37:51.280
and got into the head of the man. And when you're

00:37:51.280 --> 00:37:54.219
watching that film and you get towards the end,

00:37:54.320 --> 00:37:56.260
the scene where he's on the phone talking to

00:37:56.260 --> 00:37:58.460
Frost about things, and he's definitely had a

00:37:58.460 --> 00:38:01.510
few to drink. Franklin Jello 100 % disappears

00:38:01.510 --> 00:38:04.449
and he becomes Richard Nixon and when he delivers

00:38:04.449 --> 00:38:06.190
the line, it's not illegal when the president

00:38:06.190 --> 00:38:10.230
does it, you absolutely buy it. Nice. That's

00:38:10.230 --> 00:38:14.250
a great example. I'm going to jump on it too,

00:38:14.369 --> 00:38:18.050
saying I think your definition of when you forget

00:38:18.050 --> 00:38:24.150
someone's acting is very true. I have a theater

00:38:24.150 --> 00:38:27.250
background. When you forget, when you're acting

00:38:27.250 --> 00:38:30.289
with someone and you forget, who they are because

00:38:30.289 --> 00:38:32.530
you're just enthralled by them, that kind of

00:38:32.530 --> 00:38:36.329
thing. A lot of my theater classes, because I'm

00:38:36.329 --> 00:38:38.130
very good at cold reading, they would have me

00:38:38.130 --> 00:38:40.789
read things. And I think I do a pretty good job.

00:38:41.070 --> 00:38:45.210
But then, of course, they bring up the best portrayal

00:38:45.210 --> 00:38:48.769
of it. So, for example, they had me read the

00:38:48.769 --> 00:38:51.869
scene from Fences. And I think I did a pretty

00:38:51.869 --> 00:38:54.670
good job on it. Were you the dad or the son in

00:38:54.670 --> 00:38:57.090
the scene? The dad. I was the dad. And I think

00:38:57.090 --> 00:38:59.710
I did a really good job in it. I think I really

00:38:59.710 --> 00:39:04.030
did. And I'm very proud of that portrayal. But

00:39:04.030 --> 00:39:08.230
also, right after that, they decided to play

00:39:08.230 --> 00:39:13.130
James Earl Jones playing the same role. And I'm

00:39:13.130 --> 00:39:15.929
going, like, I think I did well. I think I did

00:39:15.929 --> 00:39:18.230
really well. I'm not going to compete with fucking

00:39:18.230 --> 00:39:20.929
James Earl Jones. Like, come on. They're not

00:39:20.929 --> 00:39:24.010
going to try to be the next Mufasa? No. No, no,

00:39:24.090 --> 00:39:26.250
no, no. I mean, he was so good as Mufasa. He's

00:39:26.250 --> 00:39:28.409
like one of the few stable characters across

00:39:28.409 --> 00:39:32.929
the original and the remake. Yeah. So that is

00:39:32.929 --> 00:39:35.789
my point of just like, you lose the role, you

00:39:35.789 --> 00:39:39.510
see the character. That kind of thing. Yeah.

00:39:40.110 --> 00:39:42.309
Okay, what question are we on? Okay, next question.

00:39:42.530 --> 00:39:46.289
Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa. Excellent. Because we

00:39:46.289 --> 00:39:51.340
didn't have one saved. Alright. Keep going. Next

00:39:51.340 --> 00:39:55.380
question. What is your favorite franchise and

00:39:55.380 --> 00:39:57.840
what franchise needs to call it quits? So two

00:39:57.840 --> 00:40:02.119
-parter. Kung Fu Panda. Favorite? Favorite. Okay.

00:40:02.219 --> 00:40:04.360
Among others. I figured that was your favorite.

00:40:04.400 --> 00:40:09.000
My answer for both of these is Star Wars. That's

00:40:09.000 --> 00:40:12.619
a good one. How so? That's very good. How so?

00:40:12.800 --> 00:40:17.530
I fully agree. Stop the count. To clarify here,

00:40:17.630 --> 00:40:20.130
when you say the franchise, you mean the Skywalker

00:40:20.130 --> 00:40:22.329
-associated franchise or all of it? Franchise,

00:40:22.329 --> 00:40:27.170
period. Done. Done. Movies? Movies, games, TV

00:40:27.170 --> 00:40:30.389
shows. Done. Books are okay. You don't like Mandalorian?

00:40:30.550 --> 00:40:33.130
I do like Mandalorian. Okay. That's why I promised

00:40:33.130 --> 00:40:37.110
the Skywalker -associated. Can I get into a little

00:40:37.110 --> 00:40:39.269
bit of a soapbox here? Yeah. Climbable. And I'm

00:40:39.269 --> 00:40:41.809
about to spoil. No, you cannot. And disclaimers,

00:40:41.809 --> 00:40:45.300
I'm going to spoil Mandalorian Season 2. Go watch

00:40:45.300 --> 00:40:47.460
it. It's fun. It's a fun show. But I'm going

00:40:47.460 --> 00:40:49.980
to spoil the end of it, okay? Star Wars, for

00:40:49.980 --> 00:40:53.679
me, is a series... I mean, it's iconic. I love

00:40:53.679 --> 00:40:59.300
a lot of the movies. But I do think... I think

00:40:59.300 --> 00:41:03.619
it's time to stop or re -examine what it is to

00:41:03.619 --> 00:41:08.869
be in a Star Wars... Like, what it is... to be

00:41:08.869 --> 00:41:11.250
part of Star Wars, right? Because as of right

00:41:11.250 --> 00:41:14.250
now, Mandalorian Season 2, it was a huge, like,

00:41:14.329 --> 00:41:16.489
it was a huge event. That final episode ended

00:41:16.489 --> 00:41:20.809
on Luke showing up and doing a cool lightsaber

00:41:20.809 --> 00:41:23.550
Jedi thing. Bad CGI Luke. Bad CGI, that's fine,

00:41:23.670 --> 00:41:25.050
whatever. Even though it was perfect CGI Luke.

00:41:25.349 --> 00:41:28.190
Cool montage of him, you know, gun, like, you

00:41:28.190 --> 00:41:29.869
know, chopping down people with his lightsaber,

00:41:29.969 --> 00:41:31.550
doing cool Force stuff, and then taking baby

00:41:31.550 --> 00:41:34.969
Yoda away. Grogu. Grogu, sorry. Adult Yoda Grogu.

00:41:35.909 --> 00:41:40.719
Grogu. Anyways, um, But the thing is that it

00:41:40.719 --> 00:41:43.019
feels like we're just seeing the same characters,

00:41:43.139 --> 00:41:46.659
the same tropes over and over and over again.

00:41:46.940 --> 00:41:49.739
And it feels like Star Wars has somewhat devolved

00:41:49.739 --> 00:41:54.179
into fan service the franchise. And I don't know.

00:41:54.280 --> 00:41:56.639
I love Star Wars. I really like that universe

00:41:56.639 --> 00:41:58.679
a lot. I like a lot of those movies. I really

00:41:58.679 --> 00:42:04.920
enjoy seven out of eight of them, right? Or seven

00:42:04.920 --> 00:42:07.940
out of nine, whatever. Anyways. I was like, wait

00:42:07.940 --> 00:42:10.099
a minute. There's trilogies. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:42:10.260 --> 00:42:14.559
Whatever. I enjoy the vast majority of the three

00:42:14.559 --> 00:42:17.260
trilogies, right? But... I just, I don't know.

00:42:17.280 --> 00:42:19.820
It feels like vast majority. Well, I don't know.

00:42:19.840 --> 00:42:21.739
I feel like any Star Wars fans has like a Star

00:42:21.739 --> 00:42:23.519
Wars film they absolutely hate. You know, if

00:42:23.519 --> 00:42:24.980
you ask any of them. When you have that many

00:42:24.980 --> 00:42:26.500
movies in a franchise, it has to happen. No,

00:42:26.500 --> 00:42:28.420
totally. Absolutely. I think you have a movie

00:42:28.420 --> 00:42:30.059
to hate. Don't get me wrong. Yeah. I think we

00:42:30.059 --> 00:42:32.280
know which one it is. I think you have a moment

00:42:32.280 --> 00:42:35.619
you hate more than anything else that we have

00:42:35.619 --> 00:42:38.219
constantly brought up on the show. Yeah. Rey

00:42:38.219 --> 00:42:40.719
Skywalker. I am Rey Skywalker. No. Oh, yes. I

00:42:40.719 --> 00:42:44.079
am Rey Skywalker. Yeah. Jesus Christ. Yeah. Yes.

00:42:44.460 --> 00:42:46.340
Yes. Yes. Yes. The anger that you're emitting

00:42:46.340 --> 00:42:48.800
right now is true. And as a non -Star Wars fan,

00:42:48.920 --> 00:42:52.059
I agree that at least if Star Wars is going to

00:42:52.059 --> 00:42:54.659
continue, the best stuff, in my opinion... is

00:42:54.659 --> 00:42:57.280
outside of the Skywalker side. I want to see

00:42:57.280 --> 00:42:59.280
other stories. I want to meet other characters.

00:42:59.420 --> 00:43:01.460
You're in a giant -ass galaxy. Why is it the

00:43:01.460 --> 00:43:03.199
same people? My biggest hope for the future is

00:43:03.199 --> 00:43:05.139
that they said, yes, we are no longer going to

00:43:05.139 --> 00:43:07.199
bring up Skywalker stuff. Yeah, they couldn't

00:43:07.199 --> 00:43:09.659
resist bringing it back in for Mando, too. I

00:43:09.659 --> 00:43:12.679
feel like it's primarily because of the timeline

00:43:12.679 --> 00:43:15.579
they set up. Yep. I agree with that. Right. I

00:43:15.579 --> 00:43:18.800
don't think Luke is going to be a big part of

00:43:18.800 --> 00:43:20.539
it. No, and it's not even just like, I don't

00:43:20.539 --> 00:43:23.380
want to see Luke anymore. It's, we need to...

00:43:24.079 --> 00:43:26.340
I think we just need to move away from the established

00:43:26.340 --> 00:43:29.639
families. This is not Game of Thrones. I don't

00:43:29.639 --> 00:43:32.420
need a Kenobi. I don't need a Palpatine. I don't

00:43:32.420 --> 00:43:35.199
need a Skywalker to be interested in a Star Wars

00:43:35.199 --> 00:43:37.940
product. This universe is vast and interesting.

00:43:38.300 --> 00:43:41.079
I want to see more stories with different characters

00:43:41.079 --> 00:43:42.380
from different perspectives. It could have been

00:43:42.380 --> 00:43:44.340
Cal Kestis who showed up to take Grogu away.

00:43:44.579 --> 00:43:46.500
But we know it wasn't going to be because it's

00:43:46.500 --> 00:43:49.900
too obscure. Anyways, Star Wars soapbox over.

00:43:50.019 --> 00:43:51.420
That's the answer to both of my questions. You

00:43:51.420 --> 00:43:53.889
have an answer written down, I know. Yeah, I

00:43:53.889 --> 00:43:56.150
mean, the one that I want to keep going forever

00:43:56.150 --> 00:44:01.190
is Marvel. I mean, I grew up with Marvel comics,

00:44:01.210 --> 00:44:03.610
and then obviously the movies were coming into

00:44:03.610 --> 00:44:06.789
actually being good comic book movies as we were

00:44:06.789 --> 00:44:09.329
growing up. So I think that's the easy answer.

00:44:09.750 --> 00:44:12.909
I owed my side hustle to Marvel, so let's keep

00:44:12.909 --> 00:44:16.170
that going. That's it, Nerdstar? Nerdstar, baby.

00:44:16.449 --> 00:44:20.719
And then the one that I want to end, Mike. I'm

00:44:20.719 --> 00:44:22.920
going to piss you off and say Fast and Furious.

00:44:23.099 --> 00:44:27.039
Yes, thank you. But it is ending once we get

00:44:27.039 --> 00:44:31.920
to the 11th entry. So, I don't disagree. I don't,

00:44:31.920 --> 00:44:35.079
actually. Because the original writer wanted

00:44:35.079 --> 00:44:38.800
it to do 10. And so, I would be good with a 10.

00:44:38.880 --> 00:44:43.860
I'm actually pissed there's an 11. So, I agree

00:44:43.860 --> 00:44:49.739
with you to an extent. going to space now and

00:44:49.739 --> 00:44:52.179
yes the thing that i heard is that they're gonna

00:44:52.179 --> 00:44:56.429
do a uh cross You know, a movie that features

00:44:56.429 --> 00:44:59.489
also the Jurassic Park. What? Whoa, whoa, whoa,

00:44:59.489 --> 00:45:02.389
whoa, whoa. I didn't hear that. Dude, what? I

00:45:02.389 --> 00:45:04.550
thought that was a joke. Dude, I want to see

00:45:04.550 --> 00:45:06.670
a fucking... So is Chris Pratt going to be like,

00:45:06.710 --> 00:45:08.070
to the car? Have you seen the Fast and Furious

00:45:08.070 --> 00:45:10.309
movies? Nothing's a joke. Yeah, right. No, no,

00:45:10.309 --> 00:45:11.809
dude, I want to see... Can't we just get Kaiju

00:45:11.809 --> 00:45:14.269
then? I want to see Dom take like a giant fucking,

00:45:14.349 --> 00:45:16.849
like, drive down the tail of a T -Rex and do

00:45:16.849 --> 00:45:18.130
a huge car jump. Like, I'm down for that. So

00:45:18.130 --> 00:45:19.710
what they need to do is bring in the Power Rangers

00:45:19.710 --> 00:45:23.230
and then they can have Tommy. They can have timey...

00:45:23.440 --> 00:45:26.199
Tommy, dropkick a T -Rex and dropkick a car.

00:45:26.420 --> 00:45:29.159
Okay, cool. Once you're bringing up ideas like

00:45:29.159 --> 00:45:32.659
that, I think it's time to call it quits. I don't

00:45:32.659 --> 00:45:36.159
disagree. I know you said you were going to piss

00:45:36.159 --> 00:45:38.119
me off. You're not really pissing me off because

00:45:38.119 --> 00:45:40.579
it's true. It needs to end. It just needs to.

00:45:40.639 --> 00:45:44.579
And it needs to end before they actually kill

00:45:44.579 --> 00:45:48.059
it fully. Hobbs and Shaw almost did it. You know

00:45:48.059 --> 00:45:49.420
what? I'm really happy here that I threw out

00:45:49.420 --> 00:45:51.940
a franchise that I'm happy that I like and is

00:45:51.940 --> 00:45:54.400
done. No more Kung Fu Panda 3 was the end. And

00:45:54.400 --> 00:45:55.920
it was nice. It was a great story of a super

00:45:55.920 --> 00:45:58.199
fan who got to live his dreams and then teach

00:45:58.199 --> 00:46:01.079
the rest of the world that he lives in. Are we

00:46:01.079 --> 00:46:03.300
getting another one? No. Oh, okay, great. I mean,

00:46:03.300 --> 00:46:04.840
maybe one day, but right now we're just done

00:46:04.840 --> 00:46:07.059
at three. Gotcha, yeah. Tight and done. So do

00:46:07.059 --> 00:46:10.219
you have one that you want to stop making movies?

00:46:10.519 --> 00:46:12.539
I'm like raking my brain in things where I'm

00:46:12.539 --> 00:46:15.099
just like, can this just be fucking done? And

00:46:15.099 --> 00:46:18.280
I can't think of anything. Because I didn't do

00:46:18.280 --> 00:46:21.360
my homework. I have one of you don't. Because

00:46:21.360 --> 00:46:24.760
I'm a huge fan of this series. Go for it. Die

00:46:24.760 --> 00:46:29.039
Hard. Die Hard needs to be done. It's time to

00:46:29.039 --> 00:46:31.699
stop Die Hard. I don't think anybody would disagree

00:46:31.699 --> 00:46:33.860
with that after seeing A Good Day to Die Hard.

00:46:33.980 --> 00:46:36.519
I don't disagree with that after seeing Die Hard

00:46:36.519 --> 00:46:42.679
2. What would you say about... Oh, shoot. Go

00:46:42.679 --> 00:46:49.980
ahead. Go ahead. What's it called? I don't know.

00:46:50.019 --> 00:46:55.079
Describe it. Yeah, go on. The thing. Harrison

00:46:55.079 --> 00:46:58.900
Ford. Oh, Indiana Jones. What about Indiana Jones?

00:46:59.280 --> 00:47:02.599
I don't watch that. That's why I'm really bad

00:47:02.599 --> 00:47:04.099
at remembering. The next one is definitely The

00:47:04.099 --> 00:47:08.760
Laugh. Yes. I think five can be good. Okay. Great.

00:47:09.039 --> 00:47:11.119
I also thought four could have been good, and

00:47:11.119 --> 00:47:14.340
we all saw that. No, I know. But five they have

00:47:14.340 --> 00:47:16.880
said is going to be the end, just in general.

00:47:17.019 --> 00:47:20.420
So I would be okay if they do it well, a story

00:47:20.420 --> 00:47:23.860
of Indy dying. Okay. Yeah, I think it would be

00:47:23.860 --> 00:47:26.300
okay. Or passing the torch, or whatever. Whatever

00:47:26.300 --> 00:47:30.519
it is. No, passing the torch would give the idea

00:47:30.519 --> 00:47:32.510
that they're going to do more. Right. But it

00:47:32.510 --> 00:47:35.389
wouldn't be Indiana. You could do it. You could

00:47:35.389 --> 00:47:37.909
do it. But that would be a franchise. There have

00:47:37.909 --> 00:47:41.349
been other adjacent IPs that have done the passing

00:47:41.349 --> 00:47:42.889
of the torch. I mean, we're getting a fucking

00:47:42.889 --> 00:47:45.889
Uncharted movie. Yeah. It's already passed. Well,

00:47:45.929 --> 00:47:48.030
like, Sony is definitely hoping that Uncharted

00:47:48.030 --> 00:47:49.869
can be their new Indiana Jones. It's not. Fine,

00:47:49.929 --> 00:47:52.150
but not with who they cast in it. Oh, wow. You

00:47:52.150 --> 00:47:53.690
guys really hate Tom Holland. I don't know. No,

00:47:53.690 --> 00:47:55.869
it's just like, just don't buy it. Who or what?

00:47:56.329 --> 00:47:58.269
are we watching? We were just saying King Kong,

00:47:58.289 --> 00:47:59.969
Tom Hiddleston. Tom Hiddleston could be a nice,

00:47:59.969 --> 00:48:04.610
mature Nathan Drake. Mature Nathan Drake. I have

00:48:04.610 --> 00:48:07.210
a franchise. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find

00:48:07.210 --> 00:48:11.230
Them. Anything. It never needed to happen. I

00:48:11.230 --> 00:48:15.050
will preface that I'm not the biggest Harry Potter

00:48:15.050 --> 00:48:17.670
fan. As I just accidentally said Lord of the

00:48:17.670 --> 00:48:20.889
Rings. Screw you. Lord of the Rings needs to

00:48:20.889 --> 00:48:25.550
stop. I'm jumping in there. Let's go. They should

00:48:25.550 --> 00:48:28.329
have ended Lord of the Rings at the second book.

00:48:28.510 --> 00:48:32.750
I just don't get it. Keep going. Fantastic Beasts

00:48:32.750 --> 00:48:34.489
and Where to Find Them. When they announced that

00:48:34.489 --> 00:48:37.530
they were making making the five film franchise

00:48:37.530 --> 00:48:39.789
it wasn't even like let's start with one and

00:48:39.789 --> 00:48:42.050
see how we do no it's just going to be five films

00:48:42.050 --> 00:48:47.239
no toe we're diving ahead in the first one i

00:48:47.239 --> 00:48:50.179
saw in like a 4d theater with like butt kicker

00:48:50.179 --> 00:48:54.800
seats which was pretty cool it was in a jordan

00:48:54.800 --> 00:48:57.980
it's out of jordan's furniture so shout out massachusetts

00:48:57.980 --> 00:49:02.500
um what they have like okay is that the same

00:49:02.500 --> 00:49:06.420
one that has like the the the no he's also obsessed

00:49:06.420 --> 00:49:08.239
with jelly beans so like there's like a whole

00:49:08.239 --> 00:49:10.599
kid playland with jelly there's a jordan's furniture

00:49:10.599 --> 00:49:13.170
in like it's a new england thing It's in New

00:49:13.170 --> 00:49:15.949
Haven that has, like, a... Robes course. Yeah,

00:49:15.949 --> 00:49:18.889
sure. Why not? Anyway, I saw the first Fantastic

00:49:18.889 --> 00:49:21.070
Beasts and wanted to find them in a 4D theater.

00:49:21.409 --> 00:49:25.329
It was fine. But was I enthusiastic to see more?

00:49:25.489 --> 00:49:28.489
No, let alone pay for it. So when I heard how

00:49:28.489 --> 00:49:31.110
the second one did, and they committed, like,

00:49:31.130 --> 00:49:32.949
character suicide for, like, one of my absolute

00:49:32.949 --> 00:49:35.800
favorite characters, I just... Why? And then

00:49:35.800 --> 00:49:38.699
all the stuff with J .K. Rowling. All the stuff

00:49:38.699 --> 00:49:40.739
with J .K. Rowling. All the stuff with Johnny

00:49:40.739 --> 00:49:43.699
Depp, which they have now rectified. He's not

00:49:43.699 --> 00:49:45.440
coming back. But it's just like there's so many

00:49:45.440 --> 00:49:47.280
things with this series that they have to bend

00:49:47.280 --> 00:49:50.840
over backwards to make it go forward that they

00:49:50.840 --> 00:49:52.400
should never have said it's going to be five

00:49:52.400 --> 00:49:54.440
films. Right. Because look how hard it is for

00:49:54.440 --> 00:49:56.179
them to even get to film number three. Right.

00:49:56.570 --> 00:49:58.769
But Harry Potter sells. Harry Potter does sell.

00:49:58.889 --> 00:50:02.210
And honestly, that's because people have to mentally

00:50:02.210 --> 00:50:04.829
do gymnastics to disassociate Death of the Other.

00:50:05.110 --> 00:50:08.090
Yes. So on that note, for as problematic as J

00:50:08.090 --> 00:50:10.449
.K. Rowling has been, and I also agree that shit,

00:50:10.670 --> 00:50:12.530
man, I don't want to be... I don't know, every

00:50:12.530 --> 00:50:15.250
time I... She had writer credit on the first

00:50:15.250 --> 00:50:16.789
script for Fantastic Beasts. Right, but I do

00:50:16.789 --> 00:50:18.030
not think that's going to hurt the bottom line

00:50:18.030 --> 00:50:19.929
that much. Frankly, I think a lot of people come

00:50:19.929 --> 00:50:21.750
to Harry Potter, which is fine. You don't have

00:50:21.750 --> 00:50:23.829
to interact with a... You don't have to be that

00:50:23.829 --> 00:50:25.730
in the know to enjoy a movie, I think, right?

00:50:26.519 --> 00:50:30.280
I don't know. All right. Next question. Okay.

00:50:30.780 --> 00:50:36.460
Next question is... Hmm. What's a movie... Well,

00:50:36.539 --> 00:50:38.840
this kind of goes on the last one, so you can

00:50:38.840 --> 00:50:40.539
tell me if you want to answer it or not. What's

00:50:40.539 --> 00:50:42.679
a movie that you like that is not well -regarded,

00:50:42.760 --> 00:50:45.059
and what is a movie you dislike that is well

00:50:45.059 --> 00:50:47.760
-regarded? Okay, got it. Jill has the answer.

00:50:47.960 --> 00:50:50.480
Yes. She is going first. So this is a movie that

00:50:50.480 --> 00:50:53.820
I don't like that everybody else does, and I'm

00:50:53.820 --> 00:50:57.760
bracing for the hate. Christopher Nolan's Dark

00:50:57.760 --> 00:51:01.360
Knight trilogy. The fuck? The entire trilogy?

00:51:01.679 --> 00:51:04.260
Yeah, she can't do it. We're in a fight. I've

00:51:04.260 --> 00:51:06.219
been trying to watch Batman Begins, and every

00:51:06.219 --> 00:51:08.539
time I want to bring it up, she's like, I don't

00:51:08.539 --> 00:51:11.400
want to do it. We're in a fight. I particularly

00:51:11.400 --> 00:51:14.699
do not like Batman Begins. I liked The Dark Knight

00:51:14.699 --> 00:51:17.099
until I made my dad watch it, and he literally

00:51:17.099 --> 00:51:19.380
picked apart the entire film sitting next to

00:51:19.380 --> 00:51:21.320
me. I'm like, oh shit, now I can't unsee this.

00:51:21.920 --> 00:51:23.800
And then The Dark Knight Rises, which is arguably

00:51:23.800 --> 00:51:26.519
the weakest of the three, has the most obvious

00:51:26.519 --> 00:51:29.679
problem. Not arguably, it is. Problem. Yeah,

00:51:30.440 --> 00:51:33.019
no, it's bad. Yeah. Not bad. And also, I don't

00:51:33.019 --> 00:51:35.239
like what it did to superheroes. Everything has

00:51:35.239 --> 00:51:39.340
to be The Dark Knight. And Snyder's... dc i was

00:51:39.340 --> 00:51:41.300
about to say like i don't know i feel like mcu

00:51:41.300 --> 00:51:44.219
everyone one of the people they like made it

00:51:44.219 --> 00:51:46.360
so lighthearted we're not gonna do that right

00:51:46.360 --> 00:51:48.260
and then now they're the which is fine now that

00:51:48.260 --> 00:51:50.179
they're on top they're like oh man that's fine

00:51:50.179 --> 00:51:52.920
but that doesn't change how i feel about my favorite

00:51:52.920 --> 00:51:58.360
my favorite batman is um uh val kilmer not val

00:51:58.360 --> 00:52:00.800
kilmer uh michael keaton Michael Keaton Batman.

00:52:00.960 --> 00:52:03.360
I was going to say, Val Kilmer, we're still in

00:52:03.360 --> 00:52:05.860
a fight. No, no, no. Michael Keaton Batman with

00:52:05.860 --> 00:52:09.139
Jack Nicholson Joker. Yeah, Tim Burton. 1989.

00:52:09.780 --> 00:52:13.699
Yeah, 1989. 1989 classic. Even the one with the

00:52:13.699 --> 00:52:15.820
penguin, the second one. Batman Returns, yes.

00:52:15.860 --> 00:52:18.400
Batman Returns hits all the points that I like

00:52:18.400 --> 00:52:20.760
in a Batman story. Which is why my favorite Batman

00:52:20.760 --> 00:52:24.000
is animated Batman Mask of the Phantasm. Yeah,

00:52:24.000 --> 00:52:27.980
okay. I want my camp. I was about to say, I think

00:52:27.980 --> 00:52:29.940
you guys know my favorite Batman movie, and it's

00:52:29.940 --> 00:52:31.679
going to also give Mike a conniption as well.

00:52:32.039 --> 00:52:35.840
Which one is it? Lego Batman, baby. That's the

00:52:35.840 --> 00:52:39.039
best. Here's the deal. Mike is really pissed.

00:52:39.639 --> 00:52:42.219
Batman is one of those characters. He has been

00:52:42.219 --> 00:52:45.059
around since superhero comics began. He was at

00:52:45.059 --> 00:52:50.500
the advent of it all. I defend 1969 Batman. He's

00:52:50.500 --> 00:52:56.659
66. Yeah, 66. I said 69. I was still an 89 Batman.

00:52:56.719 --> 00:53:01.739
66 Batman. I own the movie. All I'm saying is

00:53:01.739 --> 00:53:04.820
that Batman is one of those characters that can

00:53:04.820 --> 00:53:07.119
be interpreted in many different ways legitimately

00:53:07.119 --> 00:53:09.960
and still be faithful to a comic book at some

00:53:09.960 --> 00:53:14.420
point in its history. At Lego Batman, I'm putting

00:53:14.420 --> 00:53:17.139
up there with the Adam West in terms of, oh,

00:53:17.219 --> 00:53:19.340
this is camp. And they're really leaning into

00:53:19.340 --> 00:53:21.960
it. Now, I'm not a huge fan of Lego Batman, but

00:53:21.960 --> 00:53:24.179
I understand what they're going for. So I've

00:53:24.179 --> 00:53:27.940
re -watched Lego Batman since your admission

00:53:27.940 --> 00:53:30.880
that Lego Batman is your favorite Batman. Yeah.

00:53:31.360 --> 00:53:34.619
And I have grown to like it. Okay. But like.

00:53:34.780 --> 00:53:36.719
You don't like how they take him down a peg and

00:53:36.719 --> 00:53:38.800
make him the laughable icon that he is who dresses

00:53:38.800 --> 00:53:41.119
like a bat? Well, it's not even that. It's more

00:53:41.119 --> 00:53:42.980
like I like the examination of his relationship

00:53:42.980 --> 00:53:44.880
with the Joker. I mean, that's been examined

00:53:44.880 --> 00:53:46.340
before. But I don't like his examination of his

00:53:46.340 --> 00:53:49.559
relationship with Robin. No, that, I agree. He

00:53:49.559 --> 00:53:52.880
needs a Robin. He does. And he shits on the Robin

00:53:52.880 --> 00:53:57.519
he gets. He needs a Robin, not to be his, you

00:53:57.519 --> 00:54:00.000
know, his patsy surrogate, like he is a surrogate

00:54:00.000 --> 00:54:04.039
son, but not the, I agree with what Mike is saying

00:54:04.039 --> 00:54:07.679
about how most of Lego Batman treats Robin. Yes.

00:54:07.679 --> 00:54:10.480
As the butt monkey. Yeah. It's this laughable

00:54:10.480 --> 00:54:12.840
butt monkey who rips off his pants and be like,

00:54:13.059 --> 00:54:16.099
I think I'm going to go out in a unitard. Yeah.

00:54:16.280 --> 00:54:19.440
Essentially. like you know this orphan who openly

00:54:19.440 --> 00:54:22.500
says if I need to get I don't know I like I like

00:54:22.500 --> 00:54:24.380
that Robin mostly because he's voiced by me but

00:54:24.380 --> 00:54:26.719
you know yeah I mean I like Zach Galifianakis

00:54:26.719 --> 00:54:29.380
a lot as Joker but going back to my thing against

00:54:29.380 --> 00:54:34.530
the Nolan series is just it's just so bleak shine

00:54:34.530 --> 00:54:36.349
some color into it. Well, I mean, and Batman

00:54:36.349 --> 00:54:38.469
can definitely be bleak, but speaking to Mitchell's

00:54:38.469 --> 00:54:40.369
point, I mean, that's one of the best strengths

00:54:40.369 --> 00:54:42.090
of Batman is that he's such a flexible character,

00:54:42.309 --> 00:54:44.909
right? He can be camp, he can be grimdark. And

00:54:44.909 --> 00:54:47.929
that is why... That's why I can defend 66 Batman.

00:54:48.170 --> 00:54:50.730
Yeah. And, like, I own the first two seasons

00:54:50.730 --> 00:54:54.550
of Batman, like, Adam West, na -na -na -na -na,

00:54:54.630 --> 00:54:58.829
yeah, yeah. And it literally... I can defend

00:54:58.829 --> 00:55:01.909
that easily. Sure. Because... It is faithful.

00:55:01.989 --> 00:55:03.869
It's of its time. Yeah, and it's of its time.

00:55:03.929 --> 00:55:06.750
Yes, and that too. I can defend Batman surfing

00:55:06.750 --> 00:55:10.389
against the Joker in a fucking, like, episode.

00:55:10.510 --> 00:55:14.059
Like, I can defend that. It's when we get to

00:55:14.059 --> 00:55:17.699
Val Kilmer, Batman. Okay, for the viewers at

00:55:17.699 --> 00:55:22.820
home, I met Michael Keating. I know. And Batnipple

00:55:22.820 --> 00:55:25.159
George Clooney. And Bat Credit Card. And Bat

00:55:25.159 --> 00:55:29.920
Credit Card. Yeah, I was going to say that's

00:55:29.920 --> 00:55:32.440
like a horrible movie. Yes, that I cannot defend.

00:55:32.639 --> 00:55:36.920
And I can watch. Batman Forever, which is the

00:55:36.920 --> 00:55:39.420
Val Kilmer one. I can watch that. I can enjoy

00:55:39.420 --> 00:55:42.179
it. Even with Crazy Riddler, Crazy Two -Face.

00:55:42.179 --> 00:55:44.400
There's things to like about that movie. Jim

00:55:44.400 --> 00:55:45.820
Carrey's one of the best things to like about

00:55:45.820 --> 00:55:48.260
that movie. Batman and Robin does not exist.

00:55:48.539 --> 00:55:51.900
Batman vs. Superman, in my mind, does not exist.

00:55:53.179 --> 00:55:57.480
And the Dark Knight series... It hits... Okay,

00:55:57.559 --> 00:56:00.000
Dark Knight... There's a Batman for all seasons.

00:56:00.440 --> 00:56:03.400
My season of Batman is Michael Keaton, Tim Burton

00:56:03.400 --> 00:56:06.639
era. You're not a Nolan fan. It's all good. I

00:56:06.639 --> 00:56:12.440
like other Nolan films. It's just that franchise

00:56:12.440 --> 00:56:15.019
did nothing for me. What also hurts me is that

00:56:15.019 --> 00:56:19.519
on Dark Knight I worked props for it. I didn't

00:56:19.519 --> 00:56:21.719
know that. Long story that we're going to get

00:56:21.719 --> 00:56:25.619
into apparently. TLDR. My ex -girlfriend's dad

00:56:25.619 --> 00:56:27.920
did props for movies that were filmed in Chicago.

00:56:28.900 --> 00:56:33.019
I ended up working on Dark Knight. finding small

00:56:33.019 --> 00:56:37.139
things. My name's not in the credits or anything

00:56:37.139 --> 00:56:39.920
like that. I saw Dark Knight in theaters nine

00:56:39.920 --> 00:56:43.679
times. That's great. Because I worked a part

00:56:43.679 --> 00:56:46.280
of it. It was literally one of those movies that's

00:56:46.280 --> 00:56:49.960
always going to be a part of me. It's the best

00:56:49.960 --> 00:56:52.639
movie. It is the best of the Christopher Nolan

00:56:52.639 --> 00:56:55.739
movies. I say that even without working on it.

00:56:55.820 --> 00:56:58.400
I think it is. I think that's a fair statement.

00:56:58.639 --> 00:57:00.280
I don't think anybody's going to argue with that.

00:57:00.780 --> 00:57:04.039
But that is another reason why hearing you say

00:57:04.039 --> 00:57:06.719
this, and it's, we're still going to be friends

00:57:06.719 --> 00:57:09.019
at the end of this. I feel like I'm getting mad

00:57:09.019 --> 00:57:11.099
about this, and I just want everybody else to

00:57:11.099 --> 00:57:13.099
know, we're still going to be friends at the

00:57:13.099 --> 00:57:16.039
end of this. And to be fair, what I don't like

00:57:16.039 --> 00:57:19.170
about this movie is tone. But it's not what I

00:57:19.170 --> 00:57:21.449
show up what it's not what that's not what puts

00:57:21.449 --> 00:57:23.829
my butt in the seat to see a Batman film Why

00:57:23.829 --> 00:57:27.130
I've completely disengaged from the Snyder. So

00:57:27.130 --> 00:57:29.230
I've never seen Batman be Superman for this very

00:57:29.230 --> 00:57:32.329
reason Yeah, no, I looked at that and said that's

00:57:32.329 --> 00:57:34.510
not gonna do it for me. That's not the tone And

00:57:34.510 --> 00:57:38.780
that's why it's dead to me as well. So yes So

00:57:38.780 --> 00:57:41.039
on that bombshell. I feel like I'm on the soapbox

00:57:41.039 --> 00:57:44.280
here for this. So, hey, what else was it? What

00:57:44.280 --> 00:57:47.239
well -regarded movies? Well -regarded movies

00:57:47.239 --> 00:57:50.440
that we like that we do not like. Or movies that

00:57:50.440 --> 00:57:53.300
nobody likes that you like. I got my answers.

00:57:53.719 --> 00:57:56.699
But, like, yeah, I think I brought this up before.

00:57:56.739 --> 00:57:58.960
For a movie that I like that is not well -regarded,

00:57:59.019 --> 00:58:00.619
and I guess it depends on who you ask, but The

00:58:00.619 --> 00:58:05.900
Last Jedi. Yeah! Yeah! Let me get back on the

00:58:05.900 --> 00:58:07.940
Star Wars soapbox. Anyway, sorry. Yeah, no, I'm

00:58:07.940 --> 00:58:10.380
with you. And then for a movie that I dislike

00:58:10.380 --> 00:58:12.820
that is well regarded, and again, it depends

00:58:12.820 --> 00:58:16.019
on who you ask, but I think folks of our generation

00:58:16.019 --> 00:58:19.780
for whatever reason have this affection for Space

00:58:19.780 --> 00:58:23.800
Jam. Space Jam, I hate to say it, is an awful

00:58:23.800 --> 00:58:28.920
movie. It is not a good movie. I made the mistake

00:58:28.920 --> 00:58:31.900
of re -watching it as a freshman in college with

00:58:31.900 --> 00:58:36.300
my mates and stuff, and I was thinking to myself

00:58:36.300 --> 00:58:39.119
this entire time, like, holy shit, this is actually

00:58:39.119 --> 00:58:43.159
not only a bad movie, but it fucking reeks. And

00:58:43.159 --> 00:58:48.519
I'm a fan of basketball, Michael Jordan's incredible,

00:58:48.940 --> 00:58:52.340
not a great actor at all, but none of this movie

00:58:52.340 --> 00:58:55.480
worked for me. He is the GOAT of basketball and

00:58:55.480 --> 00:58:58.920
acting! He's the GOAT of basketball, I'll give

00:58:58.920 --> 00:59:01.260
you that, he's the GOAT of basketball. Awww!

00:59:04.079 --> 00:59:07.039
Where's my Cavs shirt? I re -watched Space Jam

00:59:07.039 --> 00:59:08.739
four to five years ago with my then -roommates

00:59:08.739 --> 00:59:11.219
in grad school, and while we openly acknowledge

00:59:11.219 --> 00:59:15.579
it is not a good movie, it is pure, stupid fun

00:59:15.579 --> 00:59:17.119
that only could have been made in 1996. Yeah,

00:59:17.119 --> 00:59:18.820
but it's not a good basketball movie, right?

00:59:19.000 --> 00:59:22.239
But I'm not a basketball... man sure my like

00:59:22.239 --> 00:59:25.079
butt monkey basketball basketball movies is uh

00:59:25.079 --> 00:59:27.619
full court half court miracle or full court full

00:59:27.619 --> 00:59:29.980
court miracle from the disney channel which is

00:59:29.980 --> 00:59:32.099
basically juice can't jump and like mike yeah

00:59:32.099 --> 00:59:36.960
like mike like mike oh double teamed yeah yeah

00:59:36.960 --> 00:59:41.199
look at the irish is a basketball movie that's

00:59:41.199 --> 00:59:45.280
a that's a basketball movie yeah look at my examples

00:59:45.280 --> 00:59:50.909
of basketball films i will re -watch or I will

00:59:50.909 --> 00:59:54.909
watch Space Jam New Legacy just because I'm a

00:59:54.909 --> 00:59:58.469
sucker for pop culture but honestly I don't have

00:59:58.469 --> 01:00:01.110
high expectations for this thing at all you're

01:00:01.110 --> 01:00:03.920
not turning around for Space Jam everything of

01:00:03.920 --> 01:00:06.940
this question has hurt me so far what's your

01:00:06.940 --> 01:00:08.900
what's a movie that you don't like that everybody

01:00:08.900 --> 01:00:11.239
likes or vice versa oh so the movie that I like

01:00:11.239 --> 01:00:13.179
that everybody doesn't like I think is obvious

01:00:13.179 --> 01:00:15.219
Mortal Kombat Annihilation yeah Mortal Kombat

01:00:15.219 --> 01:00:17.800
Annihilation that's the movie I will gladly defend

01:00:17.800 --> 01:00:20.460
that movie it's not a good movie I can't support

01:00:20.460 --> 01:00:22.239
a movie that kills off Johnny Cage and gets the

01:00:22.239 --> 01:00:23.800
best character in the first five minutes. And

01:00:23.800 --> 01:00:26.199
the one that recasts Raiden. Come on now. And

01:00:26.199 --> 01:00:29.340
they recast Sonya. Oh, they did? Yeah. Oh, Jesus.

01:00:29.420 --> 01:00:31.900
You're right. You were too busy being angry at

01:00:31.900 --> 01:00:34.260
the Raiden thing. Yes, I was. Yes. There's a

01:00:34.260 --> 01:00:36.559
lot of problems with this movie. The reason I

01:00:36.559 --> 01:00:38.679
like this movie is because of nostalgia and nostalgia

01:00:38.679 --> 01:00:41.659
alone. I got invited to a sleepover in sixth

01:00:41.659 --> 01:00:44.960
grade. They rented from Blockbuster, Mortal Kombat,

01:00:45.000 --> 01:00:48.159
and Mortal Kombat Annihilation. And we had a

01:00:48.159 --> 01:00:50.539
grand old time watching both of them. Nice. So

01:00:50.539 --> 01:00:52.340
whenever I watch Mortal Kombat Annihilation,

01:00:52.420 --> 01:00:56.300
I think about that sleepover. And so I'm not

01:00:56.300 --> 01:00:58.239
going to sit here and say, Mortal Kombat Annihilation,

01:00:58.320 --> 01:01:02.519
go watch it. I'm not. But it's one of those movies

01:01:02.519 --> 01:01:05.360
I can watch anytime, anywhere, and think of that

01:01:05.360 --> 01:01:08.670
and feel good memories. before all those friends

01:01:08.670 --> 01:01:12.550
dumped me. And so, it's one of those things where

01:01:12.550 --> 01:01:15.809
it's like, that's a movie. A movie that's well

01:01:15.809 --> 01:01:19.909
regarded that I do not like. I got one if you

01:01:19.909 --> 01:01:21.949
want me to talk for you. Okay, cool. So mine,

01:01:22.050 --> 01:01:24.530
it's going to make me sound very dumb. I'm sorry

01:01:24.530 --> 01:01:27.929
I did not connect with Lincoln from 2012 at all.

01:01:27.969 --> 01:01:30.469
I don't know why. And this is interesting because

01:01:30.469 --> 01:01:32.750
we're carrying on from the question of what's

01:01:32.750 --> 01:01:35.369
good acting. Daniel Day -Lewis, obviously, in

01:01:35.369 --> 01:01:37.469
the conversation for goat actor, basically. And

01:01:37.469 --> 01:01:40.130
I'm not going to discount his performance as

01:01:40.130 --> 01:01:42.750
Abraham Lincoln at all. It's very, very well

01:01:42.750 --> 01:01:46.130
acted. I was not entertained. I was very... I

01:01:46.130 --> 01:01:48.230
don't know. Like, maybe I wasn't in... The last

01:01:48.230 --> 01:01:50.150
time I saw this movie, I was probably a senior.

01:01:50.429 --> 01:01:52.889
Or... No, I would have been a freshman in college.

01:01:52.949 --> 01:01:54.750
This is when this came out. This came out after

01:01:54.750 --> 01:01:56.849
There Will Be Blood, right? Yes. Yeah, okay.

01:01:57.030 --> 01:01:58.809
Yes, and There Will Be Blood. I love that movie.

01:01:58.889 --> 01:02:01.030
That's a great movie. Like, I'm definitely entertained

01:02:01.030 --> 01:02:03.719
by that movie. So, I kind of... Maybe... That

01:02:03.719 --> 01:02:04.980
might have been part of it. That's why I brought

01:02:04.980 --> 01:02:07.260
it up. I went in with those expectations, I guess,

01:02:07.460 --> 01:02:09.539
right? And obviously, Daniel Day -Lewis turns

01:02:09.539 --> 01:02:11.820
in a fantastic performance. That's the one thing

01:02:11.820 --> 01:02:13.559
I remember about it, though. And everything else,

01:02:13.579 --> 01:02:15.940
I was just like, man, like, this just feels like

01:02:15.940 --> 01:02:19.900
a very high -budget History Channel movie, almost,

01:02:20.039 --> 01:02:22.960
you know? And I feel like it sounds so anti -intellectual,

01:02:23.000 --> 01:02:25.619
I guess, but I just didn't connect with it. And

01:02:25.619 --> 01:02:27.500
that was the movie that kind of swept the whole

01:02:27.500 --> 01:02:29.519
entire awards that season, right? So I was like,

01:02:29.559 --> 01:02:31.000
I don't know, man. Swept a lot of them. Yeah.

01:02:31.900 --> 01:02:34.320
was definitely in for Daniel Day -Lewis. I don't

01:02:34.320 --> 01:02:37.579
remember other parts of the movie being earning

01:02:37.579 --> 01:02:41.579
awards. It definitely was nominated. Who played

01:02:41.579 --> 01:02:43.800
Mary Todd was nominated. Was it Sally Fields?

01:02:45.179 --> 01:02:48.139
They like her. They really, really like her.

01:02:49.000 --> 01:02:53.760
So, Andre, I watched that movie with my mom at

01:02:53.760 --> 01:02:56.260
the Arclight in LA, which is out close, which

01:02:56.260 --> 01:03:00.880
is awful. But when we watched it, That was a

01:03:00.880 --> 01:03:04.840
year in college where I was taking a class in.

01:03:05.469 --> 01:03:07.849
I was a poli sci major and I was taking a class

01:03:07.849 --> 01:03:09.909
on Congress and basically the history of it and

01:03:09.909 --> 01:03:11.449
how it works and all that kind of stuff. And

01:03:11.449 --> 01:03:13.710
part of it, we had a lab where we all played

01:03:13.710 --> 01:03:16.610
a different congressman and tried to push out

01:03:16.610 --> 01:03:19.250
legislation and all that. So we were actively

01:03:19.250 --> 01:03:22.130
participating in that process. And that's what

01:03:22.130 --> 01:03:24.329
that movie is about. So it hit me at the right

01:03:24.329 --> 01:03:26.449
time where I was like, whoa, like, you know,

01:03:26.489 --> 01:03:29.269
mid 19th century, they're doing this. And I was

01:03:29.269 --> 01:03:32.199
just that's what the plot is. boring as hell

01:03:32.199 --> 01:03:34.059
and you could ask my mom if she thought it was

01:03:34.059 --> 01:03:37.559
boring because she started snoring in the middle

01:03:37.559 --> 01:03:43.099
of this movie that's the only time i've ever

01:03:43.099 --> 01:03:46.440
seen her fall asleep in a movie and she was like

01:03:46.440 --> 01:03:50.079
that she was boring yeah and and i want to back

01:03:50.079 --> 01:03:52.880
up i want to back up and i want to say i don't

01:03:52.880 --> 01:03:54.960
need a movie to have superheroes and fight scenes

01:03:54.960 --> 01:03:57.070
in it i was not expecting i was out like, watching

01:03:57.070 --> 01:03:59.789
this movie, hoping, right, I was not hoping that,

01:03:59.789 --> 01:04:01.570
that Daniel Day -Lewis would punch a guy out

01:04:01.570 --> 01:04:03.650
or something, I was not expecting that, I, but,

01:04:03.730 --> 01:04:05.349
yeah, for whatever reason, I just didn't connect

01:04:05.349 --> 01:04:06.710
to it, and I think, yeah, I don't know, it makes

01:04:06.710 --> 01:04:08.670
a lot of sense, I think now that, uh, for better

01:04:08.670 --> 01:04:10.750
or worse, I'm a little bit more, um, aware about

01:04:10.750 --> 01:04:12.690
the political machinations of our country, and

01:04:12.690 --> 01:04:14.570
so maybe a rewatch now would be a little bit

01:04:14.570 --> 01:04:18.150
more interesting, but, you know, so, it is a

01:04:18.150 --> 01:04:19.889
boring movie, it is a boring movie, it is very,

01:04:19.969 --> 01:04:22.269
it's a slow burn, but in the worst way, right,

01:04:22.369 --> 01:04:25.420
I, I, yes, I'm glad you brought up falling asleep

01:04:25.420 --> 01:04:27.360
during a movie because I've got one. Okay. A

01:04:27.360 --> 01:04:29.960
well -regarded movie that I did not like that

01:04:29.960 --> 01:04:33.739
I fell asleep four times during. In one sitting?

01:04:34.239 --> 01:04:37.679
Two sittings. Okay. Gladiator. I've never seen

01:04:37.679 --> 01:04:40.539
it. What? Wow. What? I've never seen it. Gladiator.

01:04:41.800 --> 01:04:43.679
when you watched it. Yeah, what? So the first

01:04:43.679 --> 01:04:45.500
time I tried to watch it, I fell asleep three

01:04:45.500 --> 01:04:48.639
times during, and I was younger. I'll admit,

01:04:48.739 --> 01:04:50.539
I was fully younger. Okay, well, what's fully

01:04:50.539 --> 01:04:52.239
younger mean? Are you talking like 10? I'm talking

01:04:52.239 --> 01:04:54.059
10 or 11. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's when I watched

01:04:54.059 --> 01:04:56.099
it, and I was like, this is fucking sick. I did

01:04:56.099 --> 01:04:58.260
not like it. Got it. Okay. I'm very interested

01:04:58.260 --> 01:05:01.159
now. Yeah. Then I tried to watch it again at

01:05:01.159 --> 01:05:04.860
probably 17, 18. Oh. And I fell asleep again.

01:05:05.199 --> 01:05:08.960
Wow. Jeez. Damn. Wow. So four times total trying

01:05:08.960 --> 01:05:11.820
to watch this movie twice. Okay. Fair enough.

01:05:13.440 --> 01:05:15.860
Gladiator, I don't know what it is, but something

01:05:15.860 --> 01:05:19.019
about it just puts me to sleep. And I think I

01:05:19.019 --> 01:05:21.900
can defend all of the actors in it because it's

01:05:21.900 --> 01:05:24.300
Joaquin Phoenix, it's Russell Crowe. I've seen

01:05:24.300 --> 01:05:26.619
them in thousands of other movies that I'm like,

01:05:26.760 --> 01:05:29.579
these guys are great. Thousands. I've watched

01:05:29.579 --> 01:05:33.039
The Nice Guys like 40 times. Yes. Russell Crowe's

01:05:33.039 --> 01:05:35.559
from Joaquin Phoenix. Kelly just watched that.

01:05:35.619 --> 01:05:37.820
It was her first time watching it. It's such

01:05:37.820 --> 01:05:39.960
a blast. We just watched it maybe like three

01:05:39.960 --> 01:05:43.139
weeks ago? Yeah. So Claire saw it for the first

01:05:43.139 --> 01:05:44.619
time three weeks ago. What did you think of it?

01:05:44.820 --> 01:05:47.519
It was good. I mean, it was weird. It was weird.

01:05:47.760 --> 01:05:50.179
It was weird. But I did like the Ryan Gosling

01:05:50.179 --> 01:05:53.480
Russell Crowe Russell Crowe mix. I thought they

01:05:53.480 --> 01:05:56.219
actually worked really well together. Me too.

01:05:56.360 --> 01:05:58.079
I've seen Russell Crowe in thousands of other

01:05:58.079 --> 01:06:00.340
things. The only other thing that I would say

01:06:00.340 --> 01:06:03.440
I don't like him in is Les Mis, but that's also

01:06:03.440 --> 01:06:04.639
because he can't sing. What was the movie that

01:06:04.639 --> 01:06:08.539
he was in where he was like a naval commander?

01:06:08.760 --> 01:06:10.739
I think it was called The Commander. Master and

01:06:10.739 --> 01:06:13.219
Commander? Master and Commander. Yes. And he

01:06:13.219 --> 01:06:15.260
was great in that. And that's another movie that's

01:06:15.260 --> 01:06:18.760
like... compared to other things? Sure, it's

01:06:18.760 --> 01:06:21.400
a... Well, that one, I... Yes, yes. Okay, sure,

01:06:21.480 --> 01:06:23.360
yes. You could say that you could fall asleep

01:06:23.360 --> 01:06:24.380
to that. You could definitely... I can never

01:06:24.380 --> 01:06:25.579
imagine somebody falling asleep to Master and

01:06:25.579 --> 01:06:27.780
Commander. I watched that. I did not fall asleep.

01:06:28.000 --> 01:06:30.099
I did not fall asleep. I made it through. I made

01:06:30.099 --> 01:06:33.400
it through. Oops, you're here at the table. I

01:06:33.400 --> 01:06:36.699
fell asleep to Gladiator four times in two watchings.

01:06:36.739 --> 01:06:41.000
And three in one, one in another. So I will say

01:06:41.000 --> 01:06:42.940
that Gladiator is probably that movie that's

01:06:42.940 --> 01:06:49.070
well regarded. That I just don't care for. Well,

01:06:49.250 --> 01:06:53.289
I have nothing to say against it. Yeah. That

01:06:53.289 --> 01:06:56.090
is your experience. That is your truth. And I'm

01:06:56.090 --> 01:06:58.590
happy you have this platform to express it. Remember,

01:06:58.989 --> 01:07:01.250
the first two movies pissed me off. It can piss

01:07:01.250 --> 01:07:03.550
you off. Yeah, right. We can still be pissed.

01:07:05.170 --> 01:07:07.650
I enjoyed it, but I'm not like really Scott is

01:07:07.650 --> 01:07:09.449
the goat or anything like that. Yeah, right,

01:07:09.530 --> 01:07:10.719
right. It's not like I'm going to lose sleep

01:07:10.719 --> 01:07:11.900
at night. All right, what were you going to say?

01:07:11.920 --> 01:07:13.460
I was saying we're going to need to watch Gladiator.

01:07:13.460 --> 01:07:16.239
I want to watch Gladiator. I might try to watch

01:07:16.239 --> 01:07:18.840
Gladiator again. What was it? Real quick, bad

01:07:18.840 --> 01:07:21.599
movie that you like that you don't, that no one

01:07:21.599 --> 01:07:24.400
else likes? Annihilation. So it was a highly

01:07:24.400 --> 01:07:27.699
rated movie that you didn't like. Yes, and I

01:07:27.699 --> 01:07:30.320
gave that. or under -regarded movie you like.

01:07:30.420 --> 01:07:33.300
Okay. Annihilation, I would say, isn't underrated.

01:07:33.300 --> 01:07:35.619
I think it's underexposed, I would say. You know?

01:07:36.960 --> 01:07:39.340
Annihilation? Annihilation, yeah. Jill just mentioned

01:07:39.340 --> 01:07:41.059
that. No, I thought that's what you were asking

01:07:41.059 --> 01:07:43.099
Mike to clarify. Yeah, because I said Mortal

01:07:43.099 --> 01:07:45.320
Kombat was a... Oh, Mortal Kombat. I'm sorry.

01:07:45.500 --> 01:07:47.599
I'm sorry. Mortal Kombat, Annihilation. And my

01:07:47.599 --> 01:07:49.539
brain went to Annihilation. Oh, Annihilation.

01:07:50.059 --> 01:07:52.739
My movie that I like that I think a lot of people

01:07:52.739 --> 01:07:55.500
don't... you know, passed off as a joke was Kung

01:07:55.500 --> 01:07:58.039
Fu Panda 1. Sure. Because it's the movie with

01:07:58.039 --> 01:07:59.260
a kung fu fighting panda. I would say that that

01:07:59.260 --> 01:08:01.559
movie, you, well, and to be fair, like, when

01:08:01.559 --> 01:08:02.579
you're like, yeah, let's watch Kung Fu Panda,

01:08:02.639 --> 01:08:04.460
I'm like, really? Like, I'd rather watch, like,

01:08:04.480 --> 01:08:06.460
a Pixar movie, and then we watched, and I was

01:08:06.460 --> 01:08:08.480
like, okay, like, this movie has some heart to

01:08:08.480 --> 01:08:09.400
it, you know? Yeah, and then you guys, you've

01:08:09.400 --> 01:08:10.659
seen the second one, and you were like, this

01:08:10.659 --> 01:08:12.960
is, this is... bad. I still remember the first

01:08:12.960 --> 01:08:15.840
one when basically Japan just goes, wait, how

01:08:15.840 --> 01:08:18.100
did America make a better Japanese or China?

01:08:18.159 --> 01:08:23.420
Yeah, sorry. Sorry. Sorry. How did China went

01:08:23.420 --> 01:08:26.319
like, how did America make a better Chinese movie

01:08:26.319 --> 01:08:29.819
than we did? How could they tell our stories

01:08:29.819 --> 01:08:32.100
better than anything we can do right now? Right.

01:08:32.699 --> 01:08:35.319
Alright, we got one more question because we're

01:08:35.319 --> 01:08:38.000
running out, but I want to get to this question

01:08:38.000 --> 01:08:40.710
personally. Okay. It's a great question. Yes.

01:08:41.369 --> 01:08:44.470
Are we ready? Yes. Sure. What's your favorite

01:08:44.470 --> 01:08:48.989
Vin Diesel movie? Oh. Iron Giant. Wait, was that

01:08:48.989 --> 01:08:53.390
a question? Yes. Yeah. Yes. Where was that? Question

01:08:53.390 --> 01:08:56.130
12. Yeah. Question 12? Let me see if I answered

01:08:56.130 --> 01:08:58.909
it. Oh, I got one. Okay, I got one. Yeah, I got

01:08:58.909 --> 01:09:01.710
it. Okay. Okay. Iron Giant's great. Elaborate,

01:09:01.710 --> 01:09:03.930
Jill? I mean, it's been a while since I have

01:09:03.930 --> 01:09:05.350
seen this film. I will openly admit to that.

01:09:05.750 --> 01:09:09.720
However... As a rather monosyllabic robot, you

01:09:09.720 --> 01:09:13.680
feel for this character, especially as the plot

01:09:13.680 --> 01:09:17.420
plays out. First of all, he's discovering Earth

01:09:17.420 --> 01:09:21.840
and all of its nuances and emotions, for lack

01:09:21.840 --> 01:09:23.920
of a better word. And then in the second half

01:09:23.920 --> 01:09:28.760
of the film, when he starts to remember what

01:09:28.760 --> 01:09:31.399
his actual purpose is, the message of the film,

01:09:31.439 --> 01:09:33.720
you are who you want to be, really resonates.

01:09:33.720 --> 01:09:36.590
And at the end of the film, when he... You know,

01:09:36.609 --> 01:09:39.409
the American government has sent a nuke to destroy

01:09:39.409 --> 01:09:42.250
the town. And he's like, well, I can go and stop

01:09:42.250 --> 01:09:44.989
it. And he goes off and he, you know, you hear

01:09:44.989 --> 01:09:47.149
Hogarth. You stay, I go. Yes, you stay, I go.

01:09:47.710 --> 01:09:50.069
And he flies up and he's going towards the missile.

01:09:50.189 --> 01:09:52.630
And you hear Hogarth's words. You are who you

01:09:52.630 --> 01:09:55.909
want to be. And he smiles and says, Superman.

01:09:56.489 --> 01:10:00.569
Superman. Oh. Oh, my God. It is a great role.

01:10:00.750 --> 01:10:03.449
Yeah, it's a great role. And he does a lot with

01:10:03.449 --> 01:10:07.670
little. Brad Birdman. Talented guys. Yeah. Anyways.

01:10:07.829 --> 01:10:10.609
Brad Bird. Yeah. Holy shit. I forgot that was

01:10:10.609 --> 01:10:13.409
Brad Bird. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, it's. Brad Bird

01:10:13.409 --> 01:10:16.369
did The Incredibles. Yeah. And I would say that,

01:10:16.409 --> 01:10:18.949
you know, on the final thing, on the final pin

01:10:18.949 --> 01:10:21.210
on Iron Giant is the way that it ends is like

01:10:21.210 --> 01:10:23.210
the best way to do a film without actually, without

01:10:23.210 --> 01:10:25.670
sequel baiting, but also leaving it open -ended.

01:10:25.670 --> 01:10:27.470
Leaving it open -ended. Yes. Exactly. Right.

01:10:27.529 --> 01:10:29.750
Like, I don't need an Iron Giant 2. I know. But

01:10:29.750 --> 01:10:32.329
I prefer not to have it. I don't want it. But

01:10:32.329 --> 01:10:35.149
I like knowing. I like knowing the way it ends.

01:10:35.329 --> 01:10:37.819
Yeah. Yes, I agree. And I think that's why M.

01:10:37.899 --> 01:10:41.680
Groot works so well. Yes. Yeah. Yeah, I mean,

01:10:41.699 --> 01:10:45.260
like, in terms of favorite movie, like, I'm not

01:10:45.260 --> 01:10:47.699
considering performance as the reason why I'm

01:10:47.699 --> 01:10:49.760
picking this, but it is the Iron Giant, and then

01:10:49.760 --> 01:10:52.859
Guardians is right up there. But for favorite,

01:10:52.939 --> 01:10:56.079
I will say my favorite performance of his is

01:10:56.079 --> 01:10:57.680
actually from the first Fast and Furious movie.

01:10:57.680 --> 01:11:00.819
Yeah. Okay. I'm with you on that. I'm not bored.

01:11:00.979 --> 01:11:03.680
The reason being is because there's a real character

01:11:03.680 --> 01:11:06.359
arc there. that he has to portray not only through

01:11:06.359 --> 01:11:08.420
his vocal performance, but from his presence

01:11:08.420 --> 01:11:10.859
on screen, where at the beginning, you're on

01:11:10.859 --> 01:11:12.819
Paul Walker's point of view, and you have to

01:11:12.819 --> 01:11:16.020
feel that Dom is a threat, and he's a criminal,

01:11:16.180 --> 01:11:18.199
and that you have to be scared of him in some

01:11:18.199 --> 01:11:21.380
regard. And over the course of an hour and a

01:11:21.380 --> 01:11:24.859
half, he becomes someone who becomes a confidant

01:11:24.859 --> 01:11:27.140
and actually helps out Paul Walker, and that

01:11:27.140 --> 01:11:30.560
character arc, I think, plays out in a really

01:11:30.560 --> 01:11:34.520
smooth way. you know, family and all that shit.

01:11:34.579 --> 01:11:38.439
You buy it at the end that they are family. Fast

01:11:38.439 --> 01:11:41.539
and the Furious 9 does not happen without Fast

01:11:41.539 --> 01:11:44.079
and the Furious 1 Vin Diesel. Right. Oh, for

01:11:44.079 --> 01:11:47.779
sure. For sure. Yeah. Yeah. Mostly because the

01:11:47.779 --> 01:11:49.880
other two better answers were taken. I think

01:11:49.880 --> 01:11:52.260
my choice is The Chronicles of Riddick. I've

01:11:52.260 --> 01:11:54.619
never seen it. Yeah. It's good. We're going to

01:11:54.619 --> 01:11:57.739
be related. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Keep going. But

01:11:57.739 --> 01:12:00.020
anyway, so yeah, I don't know. This is like kind

01:12:00.020 --> 01:12:02.680
of the first, I mean maybe it came out at the

01:12:02.680 --> 01:12:04.539
right time for me, but that's like a multimedia

01:12:04.539 --> 01:12:07.300
release, right? Because they made a movie and

01:12:07.300 --> 01:12:08.619
then they made a video game tie -in directly

01:12:08.619 --> 01:12:10.979
related to the movie, right? And Vin Diesel showed

01:12:10.979 --> 01:12:14.180
up for both of them. And I would say that Chronicles

01:12:14.180 --> 01:12:16.300
of Riddick is not a particularly excellent movie.

01:12:16.420 --> 01:12:19.640
It's a lot of fun. It has Katie Sackhoff from

01:12:19.640 --> 01:12:21.659
Battlestar Galactica in it. I don't know. It's

01:12:21.659 --> 01:12:24.560
a good, fun, post -apocalyptic sci -fi romp.

01:12:25.180 --> 01:12:27.520
But it was just the fact that That was kind of

01:12:27.520 --> 01:12:30.140
the first movie that also had a tie -in game,

01:12:30.260 --> 01:12:32.859
video game that was also very compelling and

01:12:32.859 --> 01:12:34.819
that Vin Diesel actually showed up in Metal Cap

01:12:34.819 --> 01:12:38.159
for. So that was kind of like the first exposure

01:12:38.159 --> 01:12:40.260
of like... Vin Diesel, very invested in this

01:12:40.260 --> 01:12:43.039
character, very invested in the sort of geek

01:12:43.039 --> 01:12:45.720
side of things, right? Like, we know he's kind

01:12:45.720 --> 01:12:48.619
of like a well -known D &D dungeon master now,

01:12:48.739 --> 01:12:51.439
I guess, right? Now we do. So apparently he really

01:12:51.439 --> 01:12:53.399
pulled for Riddick to be like a video game. He's

01:12:53.399 --> 01:12:54.979
going to be in Dungeons & Dragons the movie.

01:12:55.199 --> 01:12:57.659
Oh, man, that's awesome. Yes. At least I think

01:12:57.659 --> 01:13:00.539
so. He's got a movie made about his D &D character

01:13:00.539 --> 01:13:02.539
from The Last Witch Hunter. All this is to say

01:13:02.539 --> 01:13:05.119
is that Chronicles of Riddick is the next name

01:13:05.119 --> 01:13:07.340
that comes up in franchises when I think of Vin

01:13:07.340 --> 01:13:09.560
Diesel. But false. I appreciate him for that.

01:13:09.600 --> 01:13:11.739
Anyway, sorry. But false. But false. But false.

01:13:11.840 --> 01:13:14.420
But false. He played Riddick once before. He

01:13:14.420 --> 01:13:17.880
did. Pitch Black. Yes. And Pitch Black is my

01:13:17.880 --> 01:13:21.159
answer. Yes. Okay, got it. I would probably choose

01:13:21.159 --> 01:13:24.199
Iron Giant or Guardians of the Galaxy Groot before

01:13:24.199 --> 01:13:28.060
this. But Pitch Black was my first answer that

01:13:28.060 --> 01:13:32.260
was off the beaten path. Okay. He played Riddick

01:13:32.260 --> 01:13:34.960
in Pitch Black, and he was awesome. He was threatening.

01:13:35.640 --> 01:13:38.920
He was compelling. He was everything I wanted

01:13:38.920 --> 01:13:41.899
him to be in this movie. Right. And then Chronicles

01:13:41.899 --> 01:13:45.380
of Riddick came after. And Chronicles of Riddick

01:13:45.380 --> 01:13:49.859
is still good. Sure. They dumbed down Riddick.

01:13:49.920 --> 01:13:51.579
They did. No, I agree. They hit him in the face

01:13:51.579 --> 01:13:53.600
with a death stick. Like I said, my answer is

01:13:53.600 --> 01:13:56.239
mostly for going all in on the multimedia part

01:13:56.239 --> 01:13:58.920
of the movie and game. But yeah, Pitch Black

01:13:58.920 --> 01:14:00.640
is great. So Pitch Black is my answer. Yeah.

01:14:00.720 --> 01:14:03.859
Because of his character of Riddick, it was everything

01:14:03.859 --> 01:14:07.689
I could want more. Okay, so we've hit all the

01:14:07.689 --> 01:14:10.909
questions. We have more. We can do it on another

01:14:10.909 --> 01:14:14.810
time. But I think this is a good spot where everybody

01:14:14.810 --> 01:14:17.630
feels a little we're good. I'm going to give

01:14:17.630 --> 01:14:19.569
some shout -outs to the people that asked these

01:14:19.569 --> 01:14:21.590
questions. The person that asked the face -off

01:14:21.590 --> 01:14:23.170
question was Shoot the Flick, which is Scott

01:14:23.170 --> 01:14:27.090
and Frankie at Shoot the Flick. The biopic, the

01:14:27.090 --> 01:14:29.649
dateline question was Malice Podcast. That's

They watch a movie and compare it to Vin Diesel's

01:15:48.119 --> 01:15:51.000
The Pacifier. I was going to say, I love The

01:15:51.000 --> 01:15:54.399
Pacifier. Yes. Yes. No love for The Pacifier.

01:15:54.399 --> 01:15:56.800
I've never actually seen it. I feel like I have.

01:15:56.859 --> 01:15:58.760
I just don't remember it. Well, so we're on vacation

01:15:58.760 --> 01:16:01.560
this week. We have talked about going on their

01:16:01.560 --> 01:16:06.079
show. Whoever goes on their show, if we are available.

01:16:06.840 --> 01:16:09.159
has to watch two movies, it feels like. Whatever

01:16:09.159 --> 01:16:11.760
movie they suggested, which I can send to you

01:16:11.760 --> 01:16:19.260

01:16:19.260 --> 01:16:22.779
just became super busy. Yeah, me too. I am busy.

01:16:22.899 --> 01:16:26.319
I'm moving things. Mitchell is actually busy.

01:16:26.699 --> 01:16:29.960
You guys... What's our excuse? Yeah, what's your

01:16:29.960 --> 01:16:33.539
excuse there? Watch The Pacifier. They say it's

01:16:33.539 --> 01:16:36.279
one of the better movies. Okay, sure. I'm just

01:16:36.279 --> 01:16:37.880
going to take a hearty swig of my beer and say

01:16:37.880 --> 01:16:39.159
sure. The Pacifier is a Disney movie, right?

01:16:40.119 --> 01:16:44.039
Yes. I think it is. It's on Disney Plus, I think.

01:16:44.199 --> 01:16:46.079
What, you don't remember the Pacifier ride we

01:16:46.079 --> 01:16:50.520
went on in Disney World? Just kidding. How could

01:16:50.520 --> 01:16:53.039
I forget? That's what Boss Baby is based off

01:16:53.039 --> 01:16:55.220
of. Oh my god, Boss Baby. We want to thank you

01:16:55.220 --> 01:16:58.779
guys for joining in. asking us questions. We

01:16:58.779 --> 01:17:00.380
wanted to give you Dragon Ball Evolution. We're

01:17:00.380 --> 01:17:02.199
going to put that on a clubhouse later in the

01:17:02.199 --> 01:17:04.920
future. Watch our Twitter at GameForAMovieP1.

01:17:06.100 --> 01:17:07.840
Thank you guys for asking us these questions.

01:17:08.159 --> 01:17:11.739
It was a fun episode. I feel like we passed almost

01:17:11.739 --> 01:17:14.359
no time at all and we're sitting here at an hour

01:17:14.359 --> 01:17:17.199
and 18 minutes. Damn. Time flies when you're

01:17:17.199 --> 01:17:20.199
having divisive movie thoughts. Right. And that's

01:17:20.199 --> 01:17:23.680
exactly it. And so I think it was a lot of fun

01:17:23.680 --> 01:17:25.600
for us. Thank you guys for asking your questions.

01:17:27.579 --> 01:17:31.140
We will join you for episode 33. Hopefully I

01:17:31.140 --> 01:17:33.239
have a better computer by that time. We'll see

01:17:33.239 --> 01:17:36.000
what happens with that because it's a constant

01:17:36.000 --> 01:17:38.100
guess of whether my computer is going to act

01:17:38.100 --> 01:17:42.399
right or not. I've been your host, Mike. And

01:17:42.399 --> 01:17:46.859
Jill. And Mitchell. Andre. And Claire, who stepped

01:17:46.859 --> 01:17:49.039
away for the second, but she asked us the question,

01:17:49.199 --> 01:17:51.079
so we're thankful for her. Thank you, Claire.

01:17:51.800 --> 01:17:54.750
Thanks, Claire. Thank you guys for tuning in

01:17:54.750 --> 01:17:57.130
to Game for a Movie, where we ask, are you game

01:17:57.130 --> 01:18:01.210
for a movie? We'll see you next time. Bye. The

01:18:01.210 --> 01:18:03.930
Dark Knight was a good movie, Jill. Damn. What

01:18:03.930 --> 01:18:06.569
the hell, man? I didn't say it was a bad movie.

01:18:06.630 --> 01:18:08.510
Just my dad ruined it for me. Okay.
