WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.240
you know what that sound means it's another episode

00:00:04.240 --> 00:00:06.280
of the game for a movie podcast where we ask

00:00:06.280 --> 00:00:08.019
are you game for a movie my name is mike i will

00:00:08.019 --> 00:00:11.439
be your host this evening i'm a little bummed

00:00:11.439 --> 00:00:14.839
the winter olympics are officially over they

00:00:14.839 --> 00:00:17.839
have finished yesterday as of time of this recording

00:00:17.839 --> 00:00:21.399
and uh i was really enjoying it this year i had

00:00:21.399 --> 00:00:23.980
a really good time watching all the different

00:00:23.980 --> 00:00:28.120
events and just kind of You know, just taking

00:00:28.120 --> 00:00:30.760
it all in. I saw a lot of events that I wouldn't

00:00:30.760 --> 00:00:34.539
normally watch. A lot of things that I would

00:00:34.539 --> 00:00:37.159
watch even. Like, I love hockey in general, but

00:00:37.159 --> 00:00:39.640
I don't think I missed a match this year for

00:00:39.640 --> 00:00:43.200
the hockey. I watched a lot of biathlon, a lot

00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:46.020
of curling. You know, took in a lot of things

00:00:46.020 --> 00:00:49.759
that I kind of don't usually get to see. And

00:00:49.759 --> 00:00:53.320
I found a lot of sports that I probably wouldn't

00:00:53.320 --> 00:00:56.799
have watched on my own. that I very much enjoyed.

00:00:57.060 --> 00:01:00.119
So this year was very good in terms of the Olympics.

00:01:00.219 --> 00:01:03.939
I watched a lot of it this year. But I put up

00:01:03.939 --> 00:01:07.400
to our listeners a couple of what I'm going to

00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:13.920
call Olympics adjacent movies. Not quite Olympics

00:01:13.920 --> 00:01:17.359
related, but they involved, I'll say that three

00:01:17.359 --> 00:01:20.219
of them were bad skiing movies. One of them was

00:01:20.219 --> 00:01:22.980
a bad hockey movie. You guys got to vote, and

00:01:22.980 --> 00:01:25.959
you chose our next bad movie. I'll go into details

00:01:25.959 --> 00:01:28.739
over what you chose. Obviously, from the title

00:01:28.739 --> 00:01:30.540
of this episode, you guys already know what it

00:01:30.540 --> 00:01:33.819
is. But we've got to jump first into what are

00:01:33.819 --> 00:01:37.540
we drinking. For this episode, I have got a Harpoon

00:01:37.540 --> 00:01:40.900
IPA. As I've said many a time before, the idea

00:01:40.900 --> 00:01:44.439
for this podcast got started at Harpoon Brewery

00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:48.299
in Massachusetts back when we were living in

00:01:48.299 --> 00:01:51.349
Connecticut. We used to go... I won't say frequently

00:01:51.349 --> 00:01:53.629
because it's not like it's an easy drive or anything

00:01:53.629 --> 00:01:55.969
like that. But we did go to Harpoon Brewery a

00:01:55.969 --> 00:01:59.349
couple times here or there. One of the times

00:01:59.349 --> 00:02:01.870
we were there just kind of was talking about

00:02:01.870 --> 00:02:03.989
the fact that I wanted to do a podcast with my

00:02:03.989 --> 00:02:08.250
friends. And the idea came up for an idea of

00:02:08.250 --> 00:02:11.710
what if we competed in games and whoever lost

00:02:11.710 --> 00:02:14.909
had to watch a bad movie. So the idea for this

00:02:14.909 --> 00:02:18.770
podcast was created at Harpoon Brewery. So we

00:02:18.770 --> 00:02:23.050
owe a lot to it. So I am having a Harpoon IPA

00:02:23.050 --> 00:02:27.650
right now, just enjoying the taste of it, the

00:02:27.650 --> 00:02:32.310
goodness of it. I love a good Harpoon IPA. And

00:02:32.310 --> 00:02:35.090
the reason I am bringing this up is because if

00:02:35.090 --> 00:02:37.830

00:03:23.139 --> 00:03:27.580
So thank you guys very much. Yeah, so Harpoon

00:03:27.580 --> 00:03:33.060
IPA, very good. Very good on this day to talk

00:03:33.060 --> 00:03:36.860
about a kid's movie. And as always, when I talk

00:03:36.860 --> 00:03:40.259
about a bad kid's movie, let's shit on a kid's

00:03:40.259 --> 00:03:43.860
movie, huh? What do you say? So this one is MVP.

00:03:44.800 --> 00:03:49.539
colon most valuable primate. It is a movie. Let

00:03:49.539 --> 00:03:51.740
me just give you a little rundown of it before

00:03:51.740 --> 00:03:54.180
I jump into all the details of it. The story

00:03:54.180 --> 00:03:56.939
of Jack, a fun -loving, scene -stealing primate

00:03:56.939 --> 00:03:59.860
with a penchant for ice hockey. The friendships

00:03:59.860 --> 00:04:02.419
this charming chimp forms, the predicaments he

00:04:02.419 --> 00:04:05.319
finds himself in, and the precocious antics he

00:04:05.319 --> 00:04:07.520
regularly delivers are all a part of the adventures

00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:10.379
of this rookie player who skates fast, shoots

00:04:10.379 --> 00:04:15.610
hard, and drives everyone bananas. So yeah, it

00:04:15.610 --> 00:04:18.930
is a bad hockey movie. It is from the creators

00:04:18.930 --> 00:04:22.089
of Air Bud. It is an Air Bud entertainment movie.

00:04:23.250 --> 00:04:25.750
You're going to notice there's a lot of the same

00:04:25.750 --> 00:04:28.750
beats as the first Air Bud movie, except for

00:04:28.750 --> 00:04:31.930
this time it is a chimpanzee and it is hockey

00:04:31.930 --> 00:04:35.629
instead of basketball. It is a PG movie from

00:04:35.629 --> 00:04:39.149
2000. It's an hour and 32 minutes and it is considered

00:04:39.149 --> 00:04:43.670
a comedy. This is right on the bubble. So I'm...

00:04:44.029 --> 00:04:48.670
like fairly confident this was more under 40

00:04:48.670 --> 00:04:52.790
on both scores when this was originally up for

00:04:52.790 --> 00:04:57.430
the vote um it is 40 on both scores both the

00:04:57.430 --> 00:04:59.670
audience and critics scores on rotten tomatoes

00:04:59.670 --> 00:05:04.089
which is right at my limit um yeah i i could

00:05:04.089 --> 00:05:07.050
have sworn this was lower when i originally was

00:05:07.050 --> 00:05:09.850
putting up for the vote but it does still count

00:05:09.850 --> 00:05:14.490
it is 40 on both scores So yes, MVP, Most Valuable

00:05:14.490 --> 00:05:19.029
Primate does still count as a bad movie in my

00:05:19.029 --> 00:05:23.610
books. So yeah, we are going to hear all about

00:05:23.610 --> 00:05:28.529
the story of a chimpanzee playing hockey. The

00:05:28.529 --> 00:05:33.750
gross USA box office is $1 .3 million. Yes, $1

00:05:33.750 --> 00:05:37.649
.3 million. I don't think it was really released

00:05:37.649 --> 00:05:43.350
in too many... Movie theaters, it feels very

00:05:43.350 --> 00:05:46.310
much like a direct -to -video DVD kind of thing

00:05:46.310 --> 00:05:48.310
at that point, 2000. Yeah, it probably was still

00:05:48.310 --> 00:05:51.290
a couple VHSs at this point. It was distributed

00:05:51.290 --> 00:05:54.029
by Keystone Family Pictures. The production company

00:05:54.029 --> 00:05:57.470
was Film Incentive and Funky Monkey Productions,

00:05:57.470 --> 00:06:03.069
Inc. The producer was Ian Fody. The screenwriters

00:06:03.069 --> 00:06:08.250
were Ann Vince and Robert Vince. Those names

00:06:08.250 --> 00:06:10.410
might sound familiar. because Robert Vince was

00:06:10.410 --> 00:06:13.810
also the director of this one. And if you look

00:06:13.810 --> 00:06:16.209
at Robert Vince and Ann Vince's filmography,

00:06:16.410 --> 00:06:21.310
yeah, basically almost all of them are the Buddies

00:06:21.310 --> 00:06:25.829
films. The Air Buds, the Space Buddies, the...

00:06:27.420 --> 00:06:29.959
You know, those kind of films. They wrote all

00:06:29.959 --> 00:06:33.480
of the most valuable primates, the MVPs, the

00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:36.279
most extreme primates, Spooky Buddies, Search

00:06:36.279 --> 00:06:39.459
for Santa Paws, Santa Buddies, Snow Buddies,

00:06:39.459 --> 00:06:42.279
you know. Anything with buddies is probably one

00:06:42.279 --> 00:06:45.240
of theirs. They also have Spymate, which is a

00:06:45.240 --> 00:06:49.720
primate that's a spy. Any kind of pun that has

00:06:49.720 --> 00:06:54.360
Air Bud or primate, those kind of things. Air

00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:58.480
Bud's seventh inning fetch. world pop golden

00:06:58.480 --> 00:07:01.459
receiver you know like those kind of things yes

00:07:01.459 --> 00:07:05.259
the the vince is probably hand in it either producing

00:07:05.259 --> 00:07:09.300
directing writing any of those things so yeah

00:07:09.300 --> 00:07:14.000
um started with airbud forming airbud entertainment

00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:17.240
that has their name on all of the rest of these

00:07:17.240 --> 00:07:21.420
so yeah like i said it probably has a lot of

00:07:21.420 --> 00:07:23.279
the same beats because it's a lot of the same

00:07:23.279 --> 00:07:25.699
writers the same directors that kind of thing

00:07:26.569 --> 00:07:30.129
Not only does it have the same writers and directors,

00:07:30.310 --> 00:07:34.629
but this movie stars Kevin Zegers. Kevin Zegers

00:07:34.629 --> 00:07:38.110
is the main little kid in this one that is on

00:07:38.110 --> 00:07:41.389
the hockey team. Kevin Zegers has had a pretty

00:07:41.389 --> 00:07:44.449
decent career. How did he get a start, you might

00:07:44.449 --> 00:07:48.449
be asking? Well, he also is the main kid in Air

00:07:48.449 --> 00:07:52.269
Bud and has been in most of the Air Bud movies

00:07:52.269 --> 00:07:57.949
as the main kid. Just as the main kid in MVP

00:07:57.949 --> 00:08:00.769
Most Valuable Primate. They just thought maybe

00:08:00.769 --> 00:08:03.170
you wouldn't notice. He's a completely different

00:08:03.170 --> 00:08:07.310
kid. In the Air Bud movies, he's Josh Fram. In

00:08:07.310 --> 00:08:10.709
this movie, he is Steven Westover. Completely

00:08:10.709 --> 00:08:13.689
different kid. Same exact role. He is the one

00:08:13.689 --> 00:08:18.149
or one of the people that finds the animal, the

00:08:18.149 --> 00:08:21.470
golden retriever or the chimpanzee, brings them

00:08:21.470 --> 00:08:25.670
to play on the team. They get on the team. He

00:08:25.670 --> 00:08:30.370
plays with the animal. And shenanigans ensue.

00:08:30.370 --> 00:08:32.450
Maybe they win. Maybe they don't. Who knows?

00:08:32.710 --> 00:08:35.570
Most likely, you feel like you kind of know where

00:08:35.570 --> 00:08:40.009
this is going. So, yeah. Kevin Zegers, like I

00:08:40.009 --> 00:08:42.429
said, he's had a pretty decent career, especially

00:08:42.429 --> 00:08:45.230
after all the Air Bud movies and stuff like that.

00:08:45.350 --> 00:08:51.710
Been in a lot of TV shows. But, yeah. You've

00:08:51.710 --> 00:08:53.929
heard of a lot of the TV shows he's been in and

00:08:53.929 --> 00:08:58.970
also was in 2004's Dawn of the Dead, was in Zoom,

00:08:59.210 --> 00:09:03.250
the movie in 2006, was in 10 episodes of Gossip

00:09:03.250 --> 00:09:06.710
Girl, was in the Mortal Instruments City of Bones.

00:09:06.850 --> 00:09:09.690
And the one I really want to get to, I know there's

00:09:09.690 --> 00:09:11.450
actually a lot more things that you'd probably

00:09:11.450 --> 00:09:15.289
recognize over this, but he was also Chuck in

00:09:15.289 --> 00:09:17.330
The Curse of Downer's Grove, one of the movies

00:09:17.330 --> 00:09:21.379
we covered two years ago. uh in one of our october

00:09:21.379 --> 00:09:25.759
halloween scary uh spoopy months so yeah he's

00:09:25.759 --> 00:09:27.480
been in a lot of things uh currently you can

00:09:27.480 --> 00:09:30.460
find him on the rookie uh he was in the rookie

some work that kind of thing um the only other

00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:28.879
person that you kind of need to know before we

00:10:28.879 --> 00:10:33.960
get started of their career is uh uh rick tocoman

00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:38.879
uh rick tocoman has been or he's the coach in

00:10:38.879 --> 00:10:44.100
this um He's been in things. He was in The Burbs

00:10:44.100 --> 00:10:46.659
as Art Weingartner. He was in Groundhog Day as

00:10:46.659 --> 00:10:49.220
Gus. He was in Spaceballs as a prison guard.

00:10:49.460 --> 00:10:53.539
And he also was Cindy's dad in Scary Movie. You

00:10:53.539 --> 00:10:56.360
kind of recognize him. He passed away in 2015,

00:10:56.580 --> 00:10:59.379
so RIP. But yeah, he plays the coach in this.

00:10:59.500 --> 00:11:01.820
So those are really the three actors who have

00:11:01.820 --> 00:11:04.480
kind of branched out from this. Other than that,

00:11:04.500 --> 00:11:07.059
it's a lot of people you don't really know. And

00:11:07.059 --> 00:11:09.480
then there's also three different chimpanzees

00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:14.960
that play the titular... primate jack so enough

00:11:14.960 --> 00:11:18.059
setup let's get to the details let me tell you

00:11:18.059 --> 00:11:23.120
about mvp most valuable primate here we go so

00:11:23.120 --> 00:11:24.620
beginning of the movie we think we're in like

00:11:24.620 --> 00:11:27.799
a child's bedroom and the alarm goes off and

00:11:27.799 --> 00:11:30.299
we realize this is jack's room he has like a

00:11:30.299 --> 00:11:33.320
full bedroom like full bathroom everything the

00:11:33.320 --> 00:11:36.399
alarm goes off jack Hops out of bed. He starts

00:11:36.399 --> 00:11:39.039
his full routine. He showers. He brushes his

00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:41.159
teeth. He does everything. And this monkey's

00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:44.419
name is Jack. And he goes into his kitchen. He

00:11:44.419 --> 00:11:46.940
eats his cereal. He even drinks coffee and pours

00:11:46.940 --> 00:11:50.779
a mug. And the mug says Dr. Kendall. And we're

00:11:50.779 --> 00:11:55.500
introduced to Dr. Kendall. And there's a guy

00:11:55.500 --> 00:11:57.919
named Darren. We don't know his name at this

00:11:57.919 --> 00:12:02.059
point. But Darren is the custodian. And he's

00:12:02.059 --> 00:12:05.820
also kind of responsible for Jack. Um, Darren,

00:12:06.039 --> 00:12:08.480
again, we don't know this at this point, but

00:12:08.480 --> 00:12:10.519
Darren has a soft spot for Jack. They're kind

00:12:10.519 --> 00:12:14.500
of besties, that kind of thing. Uh, Darren opens

00:12:14.500 --> 00:12:17.899
up the curtain and we see that Jack kind of lives

00:12:17.899 --> 00:12:20.860
on a stage, like a, uh, like a theater stage,

00:12:21.139 --> 00:12:24.000
but they've put together this room and this like

00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:28.139
habitat for him that he lives in. And so it's

00:12:28.139 --> 00:12:31.820
like a room, it's a kitchen, it's a bathroom,

00:12:32.100 --> 00:12:35.289
all that kind of stuff. And every day he goes

00:12:35.289 --> 00:12:38.409
out and talks with Dr. Kendall and they do classes.

00:12:38.549 --> 00:12:41.190
It's at a university and they do classes for

00:12:41.190 --> 00:12:44.190
graduate students. They've introduced that portion

00:12:44.190 --> 00:12:47.330
and then they go to Nelson, Canada. And this

00:12:47.330 --> 00:12:49.769
is where we meet our human component, which is

00:12:49.769 --> 00:12:54.070
a boy and a girl. We think they're brother and

00:12:54.070 --> 00:12:57.429
sister. They're playing hockey in a pond. All

00:12:57.429 --> 00:12:59.669
we really get is that they give like a heartwarming

00:12:59.669 --> 00:13:02.009
hug and that's all we get. And then we go back

00:13:02.009 --> 00:13:05.360
to the class. And Dr. Kendall is like asking

00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:08.299
Jack, like, how much is two plus two? And Jack

00:13:08.299 --> 00:13:11.539
holds up three fingers and the class laughs.

00:13:11.679 --> 00:13:14.419
And Dr. Kendall is like upset because he knows

00:13:14.419 --> 00:13:18.379
Jack's messing around. And so Dr. Kendall kind

00:13:18.379 --> 00:13:23.059
of like dismisses the class and he goes, Jack,

00:13:23.279 --> 00:13:24.960
you got to stop messing around. I know you're

00:13:24.960 --> 00:13:27.179
a genius, but you got to start acting like it.

00:13:28.539 --> 00:13:31.200
And then it goes back to Nelson, Canada, and

00:13:31.200 --> 00:13:34.360
it goes to a little girl's class. and we see

00:13:34.360 --> 00:13:37.440
that like she's not very popular there's a bunch

00:13:37.440 --> 00:13:40.139
of girls that are like planning a party and she's

00:13:40.139 --> 00:13:46.399
not getting invited to it however okay so this

00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:51.179
is my thing about the party um the girls have

00:13:51.179 --> 00:13:53.980
like an invitation for her and it kind of seems

00:13:53.980 --> 00:13:57.159
like it falls out of their hand and they just

00:13:57.159 --> 00:14:00.500
don't seem to pick it up and like nobody seems

00:14:00.500 --> 00:14:03.399
to pick it up and like i don't know if She doesn't

00:14:03.399 --> 00:14:09.759
seem to see it. But like, it just seems to fall

00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:12.759
out of their hands. So I don't think it's actually

00:14:12.759 --> 00:14:14.960
like they left her out. Maybe they did. Maybe

00:14:14.960 --> 00:14:17.019
they did on purpose. Maybe I just missed that,

00:14:17.120 --> 00:14:19.539
but it didn't seem to me like they did on purpose.

00:14:19.659 --> 00:14:22.299
I think they just, it fell and nobody saw it.

00:14:23.299 --> 00:14:25.679
Maybe I'm wrong about that, but I don't know.

00:14:26.259 --> 00:14:29.139
To me, it didn't seem like it was on purpose.

00:14:29.600 --> 00:14:32.370
However, it does establish. She's alone. She

00:14:32.370 --> 00:14:35.149
doesn't really have many friends. We don't know

00:14:35.149 --> 00:14:37.610
why. She hasn't said anything at this point.

00:14:37.649 --> 00:14:40.250
So we just kind of don't know why she just isn't

00:14:40.250 --> 00:14:43.230
popular and doesn't have friends. Now it goes

00:14:43.230 --> 00:14:46.210
back to Dr. Kendall. Dr. Kendall's at home. He's

00:14:46.210 --> 00:14:51.049
on the phone talking to the El Simeon Chimp Reserve.

00:14:51.669 --> 00:14:54.909
And he is setting up for Jack to go back to the

00:14:54.909 --> 00:14:57.830
Chimp Reserve. And just kind of making sure that

00:14:57.830 --> 00:15:02.149
his spot's ready for him to go back. And now

00:15:02.149 --> 00:15:03.990
it goes back to Nelson Canada. It's a lot of

00:15:03.990 --> 00:15:05.590
jumping back and forth in this beginning. We're

00:15:05.590 --> 00:15:08.129
getting a lot of exposition in the fact that

00:15:08.129 --> 00:15:11.070
it just jumps back and forth. The kids come home.

00:15:11.570 --> 00:15:16.389
The parents ask the little girl in sign language

00:15:16.389 --> 00:15:20.129
how her day was. Oh, this makes sense why she

00:15:20.129 --> 00:15:23.049
hasn't really said anything. So we've established

00:15:23.049 --> 00:15:28.470
that the little girl is deaf. And so... That

00:15:28.470 --> 00:15:30.450
might be part of the reason why she hasn't talked

00:15:30.450 --> 00:15:36.429
up to this point. Then we go back to the class.

00:15:37.049 --> 00:15:40.429
And we also have seen that Jack communicates

00:15:40.429 --> 00:15:42.269
in sign language. And the little girl is deaf,

00:15:42.309 --> 00:15:45.950
it seems. So we've established that this is probably

00:15:45.950 --> 00:15:48.129
going to be a key part that they both establish

00:15:48.129 --> 00:15:52.429
in sign language. So this is establishing that

00:15:52.429 --> 00:15:58.799
off the bat. Also, while she's being asked about

00:15:58.799 --> 00:16:01.899
how her day was, she starts crying and goes off

00:16:01.899 --> 00:16:07.899
to her room. And her mom goes up there. She's

00:16:07.899 --> 00:16:09.840
talking about how she made no friends today.

00:16:10.159 --> 00:16:12.940
And how it's tough and everything like that.

00:16:13.080 --> 00:16:15.100
And nobody wants to talk to her because nobody

00:16:15.100 --> 00:16:18.379
wants to talk to the deaf girl. And that's why

00:16:18.379 --> 00:16:23.840
she's so unpopular. And so that's the problem.

00:16:24.220 --> 00:16:27.740
We also now get that her name is Tara. So Tara

00:16:27.740 --> 00:16:30.919
is the little girl's name. It goes back to the

00:16:30.919 --> 00:16:33.039
college and Jack and the maintenance man, Darren,

00:16:33.120 --> 00:16:35.620
they're like roller skating down the halls and

00:16:35.620 --> 00:16:37.480
they're cleaning up trash. This seems like part

00:16:37.480 --> 00:16:39.720
of their like nightly routine. And so this is

00:16:39.720 --> 00:16:42.080
why I say they're like best friends. So they're

00:16:42.080 --> 00:16:45.000
hanging out. They're doing like the nightly routine

00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:48.279
of cleaning up the trash. You're listening to

00:16:48.279 --> 00:16:50.700
music. They're having fun and everything like

00:16:50.700 --> 00:16:53.419
that. Uh, the maintenance guy is like super nice

00:16:53.419 --> 00:16:55.539
to Jack. Definitely like their best friends.

00:16:55.659 --> 00:16:59.519
They hang out, everything like that. One of the

00:16:59.519 --> 00:17:02.840
things I had a hard time with, with Darren, I

00:17:02.840 --> 00:17:06.380
like Darren overall in the fact that he's like

00:17:06.380 --> 00:17:08.539
nice to Jack. And I like some of the stuff between

00:17:08.539 --> 00:17:11.960
them and everything like that. I think they were

00:17:11.960 --> 00:17:14.259
trying to establish that he's mentally slow.

00:17:15.460 --> 00:17:21.089
The issue is, I think. To quote Tropic Thunder,

00:17:21.250 --> 00:17:24.089
I think he went full retard. And I think he just

00:17:24.089 --> 00:17:26.650
can't do that. I think he went over the edge.

00:17:26.710 --> 00:17:31.230
He went too much. And it drove me a little insane

00:17:31.230 --> 00:17:35.130
how over the top he was a little bit. It was

00:17:35.130 --> 00:17:41.309
really bad and really noticeable. And seeing

00:17:41.309 --> 00:17:45.009
this guy's IMDb page afterwards, because I paused

00:17:45.009 --> 00:17:54.569
it to make sure. I don't think I needed to check

00:17:54.569 --> 00:17:57.190
right then because part of me was like, okay,

00:17:57.210 --> 00:18:04.329
maybe they pick somebody who is mentally handicapped,

00:18:04.390 --> 00:18:07.769
but I don't think so. Seeing that there's like

00:18:07.769 --> 00:18:10.809
all these different credits that don't seem like

00:18:10.809 --> 00:18:18.089
those kind of spots, you know? And so It was

00:18:18.089 --> 00:18:19.349
one of those things where I'm like looking at

00:18:19.349 --> 00:18:23.869
it going, I think he's fully capable to not act

00:18:23.869 --> 00:18:27.069
this way and just went full send. And that's

00:18:27.069 --> 00:18:30.750
the hard part is watching this going, oh, dude,

00:18:30.970 --> 00:18:33.730
come on now. Come on. You can't do this. You

00:18:33.730 --> 00:18:37.430
can't go like this. So that was a tough one to

00:18:37.430 --> 00:18:41.970
watch on this one. But overall, the key points

00:18:41.970 --> 00:18:43.410
that you just need to get from Darren, because

00:18:43.410 --> 00:18:45.930
he's not a huge part of this, you just need to

00:18:45.930 --> 00:18:48.569
get that he likes Jack. He's defending Jack,

00:18:48.750 --> 00:18:52.990
and he helps Jack along the way. So luckily,

00:18:53.130 --> 00:18:56.690
he's not a big part of it. He puts Jack to sleep,

00:18:56.690 --> 00:18:58.230
like, talks to him and reads him stories, that

00:18:58.230 --> 00:19:02.490
kind of thing. And also Dr. Kendall, he's, like,

00:19:02.490 --> 00:19:04.690
sitting in his chair. He pours himself a drink.

00:19:04.750 --> 00:19:07.410
You know, he's sitting in his favorite chair.

00:19:07.710 --> 00:19:11.730
And while Jack falls asleep, Dr. Kendall also

00:19:11.730 --> 00:19:14.549
seems like he's going to sleep, but then he drops

00:19:14.549 --> 00:19:18.609
his drink. And so it kind of insinuates, I think

00:19:18.609 --> 00:19:23.450
Dr. Kendall died. So good start to a kid's movie.

00:19:23.589 --> 00:19:26.190
We get to deal with death right off the bat.

00:19:26.230 --> 00:19:32.210
Dr. Kendall. Nice guy. Yeah, he's dead. So great.

00:19:33.210 --> 00:19:36.869
So it's the next day. And Steven is the brother.

00:19:37.430 --> 00:19:39.430
We get introduced to him because he is showing

00:19:39.430 --> 00:19:43.869
up for his first day of Junior B hockey. He didn't.

00:19:44.089 --> 00:19:46.049
uh he couldn't sign up for junior a hockey because

00:19:46.049 --> 00:19:48.170
he's brand new to the area so he's on junior

00:19:48.170 --> 00:19:51.569
b hockey and junior b hockey is a bunch of delinquents

00:19:51.569 --> 00:19:55.150
you know it's just they're fighting as soon as

00:19:55.150 --> 00:19:57.349
he gets there with each other mind you they're

00:19:57.349 --> 00:19:59.230
all on the same team and they are fighting with

00:19:59.230 --> 00:20:01.809
each other this is practice and they are all

00:20:01.809 --> 00:20:04.109
fighting with each other except for a couple

00:20:04.109 --> 00:20:09.440
characters but you'll see why um Coach Marlowe

00:20:09.440 --> 00:20:12.779
introduces himself to Steven. He hears that this

00:20:12.779 --> 00:20:15.119
kid's going to be good. We learn a little bit

00:20:15.119 --> 00:20:18.119
about Steven. The fact that he is like one of

00:20:18.119 --> 00:20:20.480
the best on the California State Championship

00:20:20.480 --> 00:20:24.079
team. He moved to this area and he's hopefully

00:20:24.079 --> 00:20:27.660
going to help them become a better team. And

00:20:27.660 --> 00:20:32.180
Coach Marlowe introduces Steven to the, or he

00:20:32.180 --> 00:20:34.799
tells Steven about the other players on the team.

00:20:38.319 --> 00:20:43.960
This coach is kind of giving up. He knows this

00:20:43.960 --> 00:20:47.440
team is bad, and so he just kind of tells them

00:20:47.440 --> 00:20:52.700
this is a team of scrubs, pretty much. So he

00:20:52.700 --> 00:20:55.819
tells Steven the captain is Pete, who is injured

00:20:55.819 --> 00:20:58.119
for some reason. He doesn't know what, but Pete

00:20:58.119 --> 00:21:02.359
just told him he's injured. Next to Pete is Stosh,

00:21:02.519 --> 00:21:06.420
who knits for fun, and that's just his whole

00:21:06.420 --> 00:21:09.089
bit. We don't learn anything else about Stosh

00:21:09.089 --> 00:21:12.150
except for he just knits for fun. And that he

00:21:12.150 --> 00:21:14.410
made them stockings for Christmas last year.

00:21:14.490 --> 00:21:20.529
That's great. Cool. There's a big guy. His name

00:21:20.529 --> 00:21:23.150
is Moose. And he is fighting the teammate Larry.

00:21:24.329 --> 00:21:27.430
And then finally he introduces him to Magoo.

00:21:27.809 --> 00:21:30.990
Magoo is their goalie. Who was great. And he

00:21:30.990 --> 00:21:33.309
was like on his way to being great. And then

00:21:33.309 --> 00:21:35.369
the nerves got the better of him. And now he's

00:21:35.369 --> 00:21:41.849
just a mediocre goalie. and I'm going to pause

00:21:41.849 --> 00:21:45.210
the action of the movie and give you a chance.

00:21:46.990 --> 00:21:50.970
I want you, if you are listening along, to guess

00:21:50.970 --> 00:21:55.529
what is Magoo's big issue. Because I'll tell

00:21:55.529 --> 00:22:01.829
you right now, spoilers ahead, Magoo gets better

00:22:01.829 --> 00:22:05.740
in this movie. They fix his problem. What do

00:22:05.740 --> 00:22:08.460
you think is Magoo's big issue? And how do you

00:22:08.460 --> 00:22:13.980
think they fix it? I would love to have you guess

00:22:13.980 --> 00:22:18.140
along. And you can tell me on Twitter or X or

00:22:18.140 --> 00:22:19.579
whatever the fuck we're calling it. At Game for

00:22:19.579 --> 00:22:22.680
a Movie or Instagram or wherever. Just let me

00:22:22.680 --> 00:22:27.019
know if you got it right or wrong about how they

00:22:27.019 --> 00:22:29.960
fixed Magoo. And if you have a great answer,

00:22:30.099 --> 00:22:32.680
please let me know. I will happily retweet some

00:22:32.680 --> 00:22:36.940
of these answers. Yeah. So how do they fix Magoo?

00:22:37.819 --> 00:22:39.839
I'm letting you know right now they do fix Magoo

00:22:39.839 --> 00:22:44.599
somehow. So those are the characters you need

00:22:44.599 --> 00:22:46.579
to know from the team. And even then, you really

00:22:46.579 --> 00:22:49.079
don't. All you need to know is the brief little

00:22:49.079 --> 00:22:51.599
thing I've given you. And the three big ones

00:22:51.599 --> 00:22:54.440
that you need to know is Pete, the captain, who's

00:22:54.440 --> 00:22:59.440
injured for some reason, Moose, and Magoo, who

00:22:59.440 --> 00:23:02.380
has his nerves get the better of him. And he

00:23:02.380 --> 00:23:04.039
used to be great. He used to be a great goalie.

00:23:05.190 --> 00:23:09.049
And so coach rounds everybody up. He tells everybody

00:23:09.049 --> 00:23:11.170
that Steven was the leading scorer on his California

00:23:11.170 --> 00:23:13.470
state championship team. All of them are kind

00:23:13.470 --> 00:23:15.930
of like, Oh, California, do they even have ice?

00:23:17.630 --> 00:23:22.049
So after that brief intro, they get on the ice

00:23:22.049 --> 00:23:24.910
and Steven shows how good he is. He scores immediately.

00:23:25.569 --> 00:23:29.630
And so great. Awesome. That's awesome. And so

00:23:29.630 --> 00:23:32.210
the next time he gets the puck, all the other

00:23:32.210 --> 00:23:36.400
guys basically just beat him up. And so he's

00:23:36.400 --> 00:23:37.839
going to need to learn, even though he's quick

00:23:37.839 --> 00:23:39.380
on the ice and even though he's good with the

00:23:39.380 --> 00:23:40.960
puck and everything like that, he's going to

00:23:40.960 --> 00:23:43.519
need to learn how to be a little tougher. That's

00:23:43.519 --> 00:23:45.380
going to be his big issue is he needs to be a

00:23:45.380 --> 00:23:47.000
little tougher, especially with this team who

00:23:47.000 --> 00:23:50.940
just wants to beat everybody up. All right, back

00:23:50.940 --> 00:23:54.140
to the college. And Jack shows up. He does his

00:23:54.140 --> 00:23:56.720
normal routine. He's ready to do his normal stuff

00:23:56.720 --> 00:24:00.759
with Dr. Kendall and the dean of the school.

00:24:01.609 --> 00:24:04.450
comes in and just lets people know that dr kendall

00:24:04.450 --> 00:24:06.670
did die the previous night he had a heart attack

00:24:06.670 --> 00:24:11.829
and so jack and darren are both really sad and

00:24:11.829 --> 00:24:15.109
so that's that's a little interjection just to

00:24:15.109 --> 00:24:18.009
let us know that dr kendall died so now's a good

00:24:18.009 --> 00:24:20.410
time parents to tell your kids what death means

00:24:20.410 --> 00:24:24.710
let them know because we got a hockey game to

00:24:24.710 --> 00:24:26.950
go to it's the first hockey game of the season

00:24:27.660 --> 00:24:30.019
and the hockey team won't pass to steven even

00:24:30.019 --> 00:24:34.519
though he's wide open so they lose four to nothing

00:24:34.519 --> 00:24:38.400
and they get into fights and steven doesn't get

00:24:38.400 --> 00:24:41.920
passed to and he's feeling down on his luck and

00:24:41.920 --> 00:24:43.940
this is going to be the kind of season that it's

00:24:43.940 --> 00:24:46.619
going to be and we also learn about like the

00:24:46.619 --> 00:24:49.539
broadcaster and the uh the guy who plays the

00:24:49.539 --> 00:24:51.400
keyboard at the games and stuff like that the

00:24:51.400 --> 00:24:53.140
guy who plays the keyboards at the game drives

00:24:53.140 --> 00:24:56.190
me insane because he's just ridiculous and the

00:24:56.190 --> 00:24:57.950
broadcaster just lets us know the little bit

00:24:57.950 --> 00:25:00.150
of info about like the golden nuggets that's

00:25:00.150 --> 00:25:02.349
the team name uh they haven't won a game in like

00:25:02.349 --> 00:25:04.910
three years so that's the that's the big thing

00:25:04.910 --> 00:25:09.829
that's all we care about um all right back to

00:25:09.829 --> 00:25:12.730
the college jack is supposed to be in his little

00:25:12.730 --> 00:25:16.970
house but instead he's helping darren and so

00:25:16.970 --> 00:25:19.549
both of them happen to be on the floor underneath

00:25:19.549 --> 00:25:22.079
where his house is when the dean of scientific

00:25:22.079 --> 00:25:25.039
research, is talking to a team of people, including

00:25:25.039 --> 00:25:28.559
his little henchman. His little henchman, the

00:25:28.559 --> 00:25:31.000
only reason I caught this is because of subtitles.

00:25:31.200 --> 00:25:34.980
His little henchman's name is Einstein. I wish

00:25:34.980 --> 00:25:37.619
I was joking. Einstein, like Einstein, but Steen.

00:25:38.779 --> 00:25:45.160
That drove me insane. The dean, his name is Dr.

00:25:45.299 --> 00:25:49.200
Peabody, also drove me insane. These names are

00:25:49.200 --> 00:25:52.859
awful. But those are the names. Those are the

00:25:52.859 --> 00:25:56.279
ones they went with. So, yeah, Dr. Peabody and

00:25:56.279 --> 00:25:58.940
Einstein, they're talking to a group of people

00:25:58.940 --> 00:26:04.920
and they're basically just saying that Dr. Peabody,

00:26:04.960 --> 00:26:11.619
he wants to sell Jack to the University of Tennessee

00:26:11.619 --> 00:26:16.279
because he has to keep money coming in to the

00:26:16.279 --> 00:26:20.059
university. And so he's selling it to the University

00:26:20.059 --> 00:26:22.660
of Tennessee because they want to do hepatitis

00:26:22.660 --> 00:26:26.240
research. And so he's doing that instead of sending

00:26:26.240 --> 00:26:31.299
him to the El Simeon Chimp Reserve. And Darren's

00:26:31.299 --> 00:26:33.799
like, that's bad. You're going to die because

00:26:33.799 --> 00:26:36.880
they're going to do hepatitis research on you.

00:26:37.319 --> 00:26:40.660
So Darren makes a plan with Jack that they're

00:26:40.660 --> 00:26:42.759
going to put him on a train. They already got

00:26:42.759 --> 00:26:45.660
him a taxi from the train to get him to the Chimp

00:26:45.660 --> 00:26:51.920
Reserve. So Darren puts him in like a bag, gets

00:26:51.920 --> 00:26:55.059
him on the train, gets off the train and basically

00:26:55.059 --> 00:26:59.579
says, cool, like three stops past San Francisco.

00:27:00.180 --> 00:27:02.759
You're going to get off the train and you're

00:27:02.759 --> 00:27:05.319
going to go to the taxi and it's going to take

00:27:05.319 --> 00:27:08.299
you to El Simeon Chimp Reserve. And Darren just

00:27:08.299 --> 00:27:13.140
leaves him on this train. Problem is Jack is

00:27:13.140 --> 00:27:16.380
alone. So who knows where this is going to go?

00:27:17.569 --> 00:27:19.470
Something tells me it's not going to go right.

00:27:19.990 --> 00:27:22.069
But, you know, you never know what's going to

00:27:22.069 --> 00:27:24.970
happen with this. Maybe it's going to go well

00:27:24.970 --> 00:27:28.509
for them. Probably not, but you never know. So

00:27:28.509 --> 00:27:33.150
Jack is on the train to the El Simeon Chimp Reserve.

00:27:34.670 --> 00:27:38.589
And we're back in Nelson, Canada. And it's the

00:27:38.589 --> 00:27:40.569
second game of the season for the Golden Nuggets.

00:27:41.910 --> 00:27:48.019
And it goes about the same. Yeah. This time they

00:27:48.019 --> 00:27:50.640
do pass to Steven, but he does get absolutely

00:27:50.640 --> 00:27:57.180
hit by somebody. This team is brutal. It's their

00:27:57.180 --> 00:28:00.700
rivals, so they kind of all get into a fight.

00:28:01.339 --> 00:28:05.880
But Steven fights back, including he jumps into

00:28:05.880 --> 00:28:10.000
the bench. He jumps into the opposing team bench

00:28:10.000 --> 00:28:13.500
and starts fighting half the team and gets the

00:28:13.500 --> 00:28:15.859
respect of his team just a little, like a little

00:28:15.859 --> 00:28:20.960
bit. i also like one of the things that was weird

00:28:20.960 --> 00:28:23.339
about this is tara just travels with the team

00:28:23.339 --> 00:28:25.279
like she apparently just goes wherever they go

00:28:25.279 --> 00:28:28.940
rides on the bus like just goes wherever they

00:28:28.940 --> 00:28:32.299
go no one makes a big deal of it she just gets

00:28:32.299 --> 00:28:34.519
to go with them the parents don't care they just

00:28:34.519 --> 00:28:37.839
let her go with them that kind of stuff and she

00:28:37.839 --> 00:28:40.930
kind of calls out steven for fighting But he's

00:28:40.930 --> 00:28:42.990
just like, I just got to get a fire under these

00:28:42.990 --> 00:28:45.009
guys. We need to do something. I don't know.

00:28:45.210 --> 00:28:47.589
And Tara's like, you can't fight. You've got

00:28:47.589 --> 00:28:52.089
to be better. And reveals why he cares so much.

00:28:53.569 --> 00:28:56.289
Steven wants to get recruited. He wants to play

00:28:56.289 --> 00:29:01.289
in WHL. And so this is why he cares so much.

00:29:01.369 --> 00:29:03.549
He wants to make it to that next level. He wants

00:29:03.549 --> 00:29:06.029
to be recruited. He wants to play professional

00:29:06.029 --> 00:29:11.910
hockey. this is the reason why he's trying so

00:29:11.910 --> 00:29:14.069
hard and he wants to make these guys better.

00:29:15.109 --> 00:29:20.329
So that's kind of the layer of this. And this

00:29:20.329 --> 00:29:23.190
is why he's kind of fighting is to like get his

00:29:23.190 --> 00:29:25.970
guys motivated. All right, back on the train.

00:29:26.750 --> 00:29:29.789
The train gets to the El Simeon stop and we look

00:29:29.789 --> 00:29:33.390
at the bag that Jack is sleeping in and he sleeps

00:29:33.390 --> 00:29:37.990
right through the stop. And it's bad. He's just

00:29:37.990 --> 00:29:40.930
like, oh no. Well, no, he's not like, oh, no,

00:29:40.990 --> 00:29:43.829
he has no clue what's going on. He's just sleeping.

00:29:44.210 --> 00:29:47.130
And so the train ends up at its final stop, which

00:29:47.130 --> 00:29:50.029
happens to be Nelson, British Columbia, Canada.

00:29:50.650 --> 00:29:54.609
He was in California. Now he's in British Columbia,

00:29:54.630 --> 00:29:59.369
Canada, and more specifically, Nelson. And luckily,

00:29:59.630 --> 00:30:02.829
for no reason whatsoever, because remind you,

00:30:02.930 --> 00:30:14.490
he was in. He was in. California he just so happens

00:30:14.490 --> 00:30:19.910
to somehow have in his bag winter clothes so

00:30:19.910 --> 00:30:24.130
he like puts on his winter clothes and just goes

00:30:24.130 --> 00:30:29.849
out into Canada and walks right downtown he's

00:30:29.849 --> 00:30:33.089
good he's happy he just he just got to Canada

00:30:33.089 --> 00:30:35.869
ends up with his winter clothes and carries his

00:30:35.869 --> 00:30:40.460
bag out there and Hopefully he finds someplace

00:30:40.460 --> 00:30:44.039
to go in Canada because this is not where he's

00:30:44.039 --> 00:30:49.200
supposed to be. After their game, Tara and Steven

00:30:49.200 --> 00:30:53.640
are walking home through downtown and Jack just

00:30:53.640 --> 00:30:56.940
so happens to be walking down downtown and he's

00:30:56.940 --> 00:30:59.039
like walking down an alley and Tara kind of like

00:30:59.039 --> 00:31:02.359
catches him like walking, but doesn't really

00:31:02.359 --> 00:31:06.539
see that it's a monkey. Like it's chimpanzee.

00:31:06.660 --> 00:31:11.700
She sees like it's a short person and just kind

00:31:11.700 --> 00:31:13.839
of like files it away. She just kind of was like,

00:31:13.900 --> 00:31:17.240
huh, that was strange. But then they keep going.

00:31:18.940 --> 00:31:24.500
Jack finds a tree house. And so he just decides

00:31:24.500 --> 00:31:26.259
I'm going to crash here and he spends the night

00:31:26.259 --> 00:31:28.880
there. And this is like a full on tree house.

00:31:28.960 --> 00:31:31.420
Like there's a bed in there and like it's it's

00:31:31.420 --> 00:31:34.130
comfortable. Like he. He's going to be fine for

00:31:34.130 --> 00:31:37.170
the night. Just so happens to be warm. Like it's

00:31:37.170 --> 00:31:39.869
got windows and stuff. Like there's no breeze

00:31:39.869 --> 00:31:43.190
in it or anything like that. Mind you, it's Canada

00:31:43.190 --> 00:31:45.750
in the middle of winter. But he just so happens

00:31:45.750 --> 00:31:48.930
to find one that has a bed, windows. He's going

00:31:48.930 --> 00:31:55.089
to be just fine. So it's the next morning. And

00:31:55.089 --> 00:31:58.910
Jack is woken up by Stephen shooting shots on

00:31:58.910 --> 00:32:02.849
the pond. So he's like shooting into a goal and

00:32:02.849 --> 00:32:08.230
Tara is hanging out watching him shoot. And wouldn't

00:32:08.230 --> 00:32:10.130
you know it, what is Tara eating of all things

00:32:10.130 --> 00:32:14.509
while watching Stephen shooting? She's eating

00:32:14.509 --> 00:32:17.769
a banana. And she puts it down on the bench next

00:32:17.769 --> 00:32:20.589
to her because she's apparently not going to

00:32:20.589 --> 00:32:22.069
eat it in one fell swoop. She's just going to

00:32:22.069 --> 00:32:25.549
put it down next to her, which disappears into

00:32:25.549 --> 00:32:31.180
a bush. And she hears the bush rustle. How she

00:32:31.180 --> 00:32:33.579
hears it. I don't know. Because remember they've

00:32:33.579 --> 00:32:35.539
established she's deaf. But somehow she hears

00:32:35.539 --> 00:32:38.700
it. She doesn't see it. That's definitely not

00:32:38.700 --> 00:32:40.599
what she does. She doesn't see it. She hears

00:32:40.599 --> 00:32:44.420
it. And she looks into the bush. And she sees

00:32:44.420 --> 00:32:48.880
Jack. And she screams. And she tells Stephen

00:32:48.880 --> 00:32:51.940
she saw a monkey in the woods. And he goes to

00:32:51.940 --> 00:32:56.259
look. And the monkey's not there. And so of course

00:32:56.259 --> 00:32:58.460
he doesn't believe her. He's just like. There's

00:32:58.460 --> 00:33:01.460
no monkey. It's Canada. There's no monkey. All

00:33:01.460 --> 00:33:03.779
right, we need to go to school. So they go to

00:33:03.779 --> 00:33:08.880
school. And now it's back at the college. And

00:33:08.880 --> 00:33:13.660
Dean Dr. Peabody, he gets a call that Jack never

00:33:13.660 --> 00:33:17.039
arrived at the University of Tennessee. And he

00:33:17.039 --> 00:33:20.720
goes like evil villains stomping down the hallway,

00:33:20.859 --> 00:33:23.339
like knocking over students that are in his path.

00:33:27.759 --> 00:33:30.700
The only reason he's mad is because the monkey

00:33:30.700 --> 00:33:32.359
didn't get there and he's not going to get his

00:33:32.359 --> 00:33:35.279
money. So he's going like full evil villain for

00:33:35.279 --> 00:33:39.119
money and he confronts Darren and Darren is painting

00:33:39.119 --> 00:33:43.240
a wall green and Dr. Peabody is in a full white

00:33:43.240 --> 00:33:46.700
suit and he steps in one of those paint containers

00:33:46.700 --> 00:33:50.579
and it splashes on him and just gets green on

00:33:50.579 --> 00:33:56.190
his crotch. This becomes a recurring bit. So

00:33:56.190 --> 00:33:58.750
this is the only reason I include this is because

00:33:58.750 --> 00:34:01.990
he likes to wear white a lot and this just keeps

00:34:01.990 --> 00:34:04.950
happening. So he has green on his crotch over

00:34:04.950 --> 00:34:11.130
his white suit. So yeah. Darren denies knowing

00:34:11.130 --> 00:34:15.369
anything about where Jack might have gone. So

00:34:15.369 --> 00:34:22.010
yeah. That's it. Then it goes back to Tara who

00:34:22.010 --> 00:34:25.460
gets back home from school. And she happens to

00:34:25.460 --> 00:34:32.360
find the treehouse. I have no real reason why

00:34:32.360 --> 00:34:37.519
she goes to the treehouse. Like, there's no reason

00:34:37.519 --> 00:34:41.539
for her to go to the treehouse. But she does.

00:34:41.699 --> 00:34:44.539
She goes up to the treehouse, maybe thinking

00:34:44.539 --> 00:34:46.599
the monkey was there. I don't know, actually.

00:34:47.760 --> 00:34:50.659
So she goes up into the treehouse and she sees

00:34:50.659 --> 00:34:56.400
Jack. And then she promptly passes out. Only

00:34:56.400 --> 00:34:58.760
to wake up a few minutes, a couple hours, who

00:34:58.760 --> 00:35:01.340
knows. Only to have Jack staring at her as she

00:35:01.340 --> 00:35:06.659
wakes up. So Tara and Jack kind of like have

00:35:06.659 --> 00:35:09.260
a little like, I don't want to call it a meet

00:35:09.260 --> 00:35:11.159
cute, but it's kind of a meet cute because they're

00:35:11.159 --> 00:35:12.760
going to be best friends. That's what's going

00:35:12.760 --> 00:35:14.280
to happen. Tara and Jack are going to be best

00:35:14.280 --> 00:35:16.239
friends because they find out that they can sign

00:35:16.239 --> 00:35:21.780
and they're going to be good friends. And it

00:35:21.780 --> 00:35:23.860
goes to the locker room, the hockey locker room.

00:35:24.039 --> 00:35:26.119
And Steven's kind of like trying to rally the

00:35:26.119 --> 00:35:27.960
guys. They're just like, come on, guys. Like,

00:35:27.960 --> 00:35:30.679
why can't we actually win? Like, we can't just

00:35:30.679 --> 00:35:34.039
goof around. Like, why shouldn't we try to win?

00:35:34.159 --> 00:35:37.760
And the one person that kind of agrees with him

00:35:37.760 --> 00:35:40.519
is Magoo. Magoo's kind of like, we should try.

00:35:40.699 --> 00:35:43.059
Like, why are we goofing around? Why are we doing

00:35:43.059 --> 00:35:46.460
this? And it gets the coach's attention. The

00:35:46.460 --> 00:35:49.860
coach is kind of like, hey. This kid's kind of,

00:35:49.860 --> 00:35:51.960
you know, he's right. He's trying. He's trying

00:35:51.960 --> 00:35:53.960
to get the guys and everything like that. It's

00:35:53.960 --> 00:35:56.599
a quick scene, but it's just kind of like, okay,

00:35:56.639 --> 00:35:58.800
maybe this is a turning point for the team. The

00:35:58.800 --> 00:36:04.500
Steven guy, he's all right. Worrying about Jack

00:36:04.500 --> 00:36:08.239
being alone in the tree house, Tara brings Jack

00:36:08.239 --> 00:36:11.559
inside and makes a spot for him in her closet

00:36:11.559 --> 00:36:16.400
so that he can sleep there. And so now it's their

00:36:16.400 --> 00:36:19.579
little secret. there's a whole scene where steven

00:36:19.579 --> 00:36:22.019
kind of goes into tara's room looking for something

00:36:22.019 --> 00:36:24.780
tara is like trying to close the closet door

00:36:24.780 --> 00:36:27.400
and you know jack keeps pushing the closet door

00:36:27.400 --> 00:36:30.059
open but she keeps like closing it you know back

00:36:30.059 --> 00:36:32.599
and forth kind of thing but nobody catches it

00:36:32.599 --> 00:36:36.460
so it's tara and jack's secret nobody else knows

00:36:36.460 --> 00:36:41.219
next day of course jack wakes up first tara doesn't

00:36:41.219 --> 00:36:44.920
hear anything and starts monkey business he grabs

00:36:44.920 --> 00:36:47.639
like Dad's glasses, waiting for the bathroom.

00:36:47.920 --> 00:36:50.159
Then he goes downstairs, he makes cereal, he

00:36:50.159 --> 00:36:52.340
makes coffee. You know, he drinks straight out

00:36:52.340 --> 00:36:56.239
of the milk carton, that kind of stuff. Steven

00:36:56.239 --> 00:37:00.219
goes downstairs and he catches Jack eating cereal.

00:37:02.079 --> 00:37:05.579
And he realizes this is Tara's monkey that she

00:37:05.579 --> 00:37:11.639
saw. And so it's now Jack, Steven, and Tara's

00:37:11.639 --> 00:37:15.889
secret. And so like Tara gets downstairs and

00:37:15.889 --> 00:37:18.150
realizes like Steven's seen this, but Steven's

00:37:18.150 --> 00:37:22.110
kind of cool with it. He's like, okay, we just

00:37:22.110 --> 00:37:23.889
need to keep this away from mom and dad. But

00:37:23.889 --> 00:37:26.269
like, let's really, I think he's just like, let's

00:37:26.269 --> 00:37:27.710
just get this monkey out of here and we don't

00:37:27.710 --> 00:37:30.570
have to worry about this anymore. So like Steven's

00:37:30.570 --> 00:37:32.570
trying to get Tara and Jack out of the house

00:37:32.570 --> 00:37:35.289
as they're trying to get out of the house. Jack

00:37:35.289 --> 00:37:37.889
keeps pointing at like an old pair of skates.

00:37:37.949 --> 00:37:40.170
That's like tiny pair of skates, but like keeps

00:37:40.170 --> 00:37:43.250
pointing at them. and so they bring it out with

00:37:43.250 --> 00:37:47.429
them and they get out of the house right before

00:37:47.429 --> 00:37:50.550
dad comes downstairs and so like dad and mom

00:37:50.550 --> 00:37:53.170
don't know anything dad's like looking for his

00:37:53.170 --> 00:37:56.389
glasses he sees the glasses puts them on no problem

00:37:56.389 --> 00:37:58.110
he just thinks one of the kids like moved from

00:37:58.110 --> 00:37:59.829
downstairs or maybe that he left it downstairs

00:37:59.829 --> 00:38:03.150
and then he also like sees that the coffee's

00:38:03.150 --> 00:38:05.289
been made and thinks the kids made it for him

00:38:05.289 --> 00:38:09.809
and he's like all right good kids so yeah we

00:38:09.809 --> 00:38:13.929
are more Than halfway through this movie. And

00:38:13.929 --> 00:38:18.869
this monkey. Has not played hockey yet. You know

00:38:18.869 --> 00:38:21.389
what I mean. Like it's. We literally are more

00:38:21.389 --> 00:38:23.130
than halfway through this movie. And the monkey

00:38:23.130 --> 00:38:26.590
has not played hockey. I'm going to take a quick

00:38:26.590 --> 00:38:29.969
break. Give our sponsors a chance. Not sponsors.

00:38:30.070 --> 00:38:33.849
But give an ad a chance. And more so. I'm going

00:38:33.849 --> 00:38:36.110
to drink more of this beer. Because Harpoon IPA.

00:38:36.150 --> 00:38:39.880
Thank you. So I'll be back in a little bit. Gather

00:38:39.880 --> 00:38:42.460
the rest of my notes and give you more about

00:38:42.460 --> 00:38:44.639
this monkey hopefully playing hockey in the second

00:38:44.639 --> 00:38:47.659
half. Who knows? Maybe I got maybe I got gypped.

00:38:47.780 --> 00:38:50.780
I got faked out by the cover. So, yeah, I'll

00:38:50.780 --> 00:38:53.239
be back in a little bit. Enjoy this ad while

00:38:53.239 --> 00:38:56.460
I drink some harpoon IPA and I'm back. All right.

00:38:56.519 --> 00:39:01.579
So they are now down at the pond and Stephen's

00:39:01.579 --> 00:39:03.440
back out there trying to shoot through the net

00:39:03.440 --> 00:39:07.119
and everything like that. And. basically they

00:39:07.119 --> 00:39:10.280
get jack jack wanted to try them out and so jack

00:39:10.280 --> 00:39:12.679
is like trying out these skates he's having a

00:39:12.679 --> 00:39:15.219
hard time you know it's his first time skating

00:39:15.219 --> 00:39:17.940
i don't blame him and even though his room had

00:39:17.940 --> 00:39:19.960
like hockey posters and stuff it's not like he's

00:39:19.960 --> 00:39:24.400
ever skated before so fine he's he's skating

00:39:24.400 --> 00:39:25.960
he's trying them out and everything like that

00:39:25.960 --> 00:39:31.380
and they give jack like his stick and he starts

00:39:31.380 --> 00:39:36.920
to shoot and he like has a hell of a slap shot

00:39:36.920 --> 00:39:41.019
and it goes through the net. And like Tara's

00:39:41.019 --> 00:39:44.519
kind of like sees it go through the net. Like

00:39:44.519 --> 00:39:47.179
it goes through the net, like leaves a scorcher.

00:39:47.239 --> 00:39:49.239
And Steven's just kind of like, wow, if he could

00:39:49.239 --> 00:39:51.059
like actually put it through the net, that would

00:39:51.059 --> 00:39:53.500
be, or like put it into the net. That'd be dangerous

00:39:53.500 --> 00:39:56.639
thinking that it like completely missed. And

00:39:56.639 --> 00:39:58.940
Tara's looks through and just go kind of goes

00:39:58.940 --> 00:40:02.860
like. he put it through the net like doesn't

00:40:02.860 --> 00:40:05.000
say anything but just kind of realized like he

00:40:05.000 --> 00:40:08.599
just drilled that like you kind of don't understand

00:40:08.599 --> 00:40:12.900
he he nailed it but you know just kind of realizes

00:40:12.900 --> 00:40:18.000
so they need to get back to school um i don't

00:40:18.000 --> 00:40:20.679
know what they're gonna do with jack but they're

00:40:20.679 --> 00:40:23.900
gonna they're gonna do something i guess At the

00:40:23.900 --> 00:40:26.139
university, many of the alumni have apparently,

00:40:26.300 --> 00:40:28.940
they're going to withhold their donations until

00:40:28.940 --> 00:40:33.900
Jack has been found unharmed. I kind of don't

00:40:33.900 --> 00:40:40.420
get this. Why are you withholding donations?

00:40:41.599 --> 00:40:45.099
Because the monkey disappeared. Like, are you

00:40:45.099 --> 00:40:47.179
blaming the university for losing the monkey?

00:40:48.539 --> 00:40:53.010
I don't know. I guess it doesn't make sense to

00:40:53.010 --> 00:40:54.809
me why they're withholding their donations. You

00:40:54.809 --> 00:40:58.829
want to find the monkey. I don't get it. I don't

00:40:58.829 --> 00:41:04.429
know. It doesn't make sense to me. That's the

00:41:04.429 --> 00:41:05.869
one thing in this movie that doesn't make sense

00:41:05.869 --> 00:41:09.250
to me, that they withhold the donations. Basically,

00:41:09.250 --> 00:41:11.889
it's just a setup that the dean is going to get

00:41:11.889 --> 00:41:14.929
more evil because now there's more money being

00:41:14.929 --> 00:41:18.789
withheld. So he's going to get more evil because...

00:41:20.809 --> 00:41:23.690
there's less money coming in. I guess that's

00:41:23.690 --> 00:41:25.349
what just doesn't make sense to me. I don't,

00:41:25.369 --> 00:41:29.750
I don't know, but whatever. Um, Jack and Tara

00:41:29.750 --> 00:41:31.190
actually weren't going back to school. I'm sorry.

00:41:31.269 --> 00:41:33.250
I was wrong about that. Uh, they went back home

00:41:33.250 --> 00:41:36.309
and they get Jack back inside and downstairs.

00:41:36.610 --> 00:41:38.909
Mom is now about to have a meeting with some

00:41:38.909 --> 00:41:42.269
uptight ladies and the kids are going to leave.

00:41:42.909 --> 00:41:45.309
And they like said to Jack, like be on your best

00:41:45.309 --> 00:41:48.050
behavior. We're going to go. Uh, they have a

00:41:48.050 --> 00:41:50.329
game. Uh, Steven has a game. Tara's going with

00:41:50.329 --> 00:41:52.989
them. Jack sees them leave with their hockey

00:41:52.989 --> 00:41:56.230
stuff. So he like sneaks out the window to go

00:41:56.230 --> 00:42:00.929
to follow them. And like he, he sneaks out one

00:42:00.929 --> 00:42:03.190
of the upstairs windows and he's like hanging

00:42:03.190 --> 00:42:06.929
upside down and he like swinging by the window.

00:42:07.090 --> 00:42:10.349
And one of the uptight ladies sees him and it's

00:42:10.349 --> 00:42:13.469
rightfully so gets scared out of her mind because

00:42:13.469 --> 00:42:16.360
there's just a monkey. swinging by the window

00:42:16.360 --> 00:42:18.960
and she like passes out and freaks out because

00:42:18.960 --> 00:42:22.800
she thought she saw a monkey she did she was

00:42:22.800 --> 00:42:30.400
right about that so jack somehow finds out that

00:42:30.400 --> 00:42:34.119
they're going to the nuggets game and a good

00:42:34.119 --> 00:42:36.380
thing it's a home game because i don't know how

00:42:36.380 --> 00:42:39.199
jack's gonna figure out how to get there and

00:42:39.199 --> 00:42:41.340
this is all built around the premise by the way

00:42:41.340 --> 00:42:44.969
so I was going to get to this at the end, but

00:42:44.969 --> 00:42:46.809
this is what drives me nuts, and I need to bring

00:42:46.809 --> 00:42:50.949
this up because of the next scene. This is all

00:42:50.949 --> 00:42:54.190
built around the premise of one line, and it

00:42:54.190 --> 00:42:56.570
was kind of a throwaway line until this part.

00:42:57.829 --> 00:43:00.969
All of this is built about the one line that

00:43:00.969 --> 00:43:06.550
Dr. Kendall said, that Jack is a genius. Because

00:43:06.550 --> 00:43:11.849
there's no fucking way in hell. that if this

00:43:11.849 --> 00:43:14.989
is a regular chimpanzee he figures out how to

00:43:14.989 --> 00:43:19.449
do all this shit he doesn't figure out they're

00:43:19.449 --> 00:43:21.550
leaving with their hockey stuff he doesn't figure

00:43:21.550 --> 00:43:23.650
out how to get the out the window he doesn't

00:43:23.650 --> 00:43:25.349
figure out where they're going he doesn't figure

00:43:25.349 --> 00:43:28.570
out how to get there he doesn't figure out so

00:43:28.570 --> 00:43:34.670
they get to the like stadium the arena and jack

00:43:34.670 --> 00:43:36.909
gets there and he figures out there's a ticket

00:43:36.909 --> 00:43:40.159
taker and he's not going to get around the ticket

00:43:40.159 --> 00:43:42.860
taker so he has to figure out a way to get into

00:43:42.860 --> 00:43:50.639
the arena like there there's no way and it's

00:43:50.639 --> 00:43:52.880
it's all a throwaway line about the fact that

00:43:52.880 --> 00:43:58.199
he's a genius and that this is the way this is

00:43:58.199 --> 00:44:00.059
the reason why he has to do all these things

00:44:00.059 --> 00:44:03.159
that's the only reason he does all these things

00:44:03.159 --> 00:44:06.199
is because he's a genius and that's that's how

00:44:06.199 --> 00:44:08.699
they get away with all this stuff in the plot

00:44:08.699 --> 00:44:13.039
is just oh well he's a genius so that's what

00:44:13.039 --> 00:44:17.880
happens so in the game steven's having a great

00:44:17.880 --> 00:44:20.360
start to the game he gets two goals immediately

00:44:20.360 --> 00:44:25.679
and he including he got one off of like this

00:44:25.679 --> 00:44:28.559
sick check and pass from moose like moose got

00:44:28.559 --> 00:44:31.239
a good check into the boards off a guy and then

00:44:31.239 --> 00:44:33.550
passed it to him And he was able to do like this

00:44:33.550 --> 00:44:36.250
great move, get a goal. So he got two goals right

00:44:36.250 --> 00:44:38.230
off the bat. It's like two to one at this point.

00:44:39.269 --> 00:44:42.050
So Jack, like I said, he sees this ticket taker.

00:44:42.070 --> 00:44:44.309
He figures out he can't get past the ticket taker

00:44:44.309 --> 00:44:47.610
because he's a genius. So he climbs to the roof

00:44:47.610 --> 00:44:52.250
of the building and he opens a skylight. And

00:44:52.250 --> 00:44:54.809
this is what I'm saying by, well, he just does

00:44:54.809 --> 00:44:58.710
this because he's a genius. He's a genius, you

00:44:58.710 --> 00:45:02.519
know? When he gets to the skylight, this is my

00:45:02.519 --> 00:45:05.500
favorite part of this whole movie. So he gets

00:45:05.500 --> 00:45:08.380
to the skylight. He doesn't have a stick. He

00:45:08.380 --> 00:45:11.699
doesn't have a skates and somebody very obviously

00:45:11.699 --> 00:45:15.280
like it's off screen hands him this dick in the

00:45:15.280 --> 00:45:17.519
skates. Like they just kind of slide in there

00:45:17.519 --> 00:45:20.840
and then he grabs it and then kind of like, I

00:45:20.840 --> 00:45:22.900
guess he's supposed to swing in there. I don't,

00:45:22.900 --> 00:45:25.599
I don't know because we didn't see what happens,

00:45:25.679 --> 00:45:28.539
but you know, we assume monkey. So he swings

00:45:28.539 --> 00:45:31.530
in there and gets in there. And he finds an extra

00:45:31.530 --> 00:45:34.309
jersey and gear, which we end up learning late

00:45:34.309 --> 00:45:36.989
in the movie that it's Pete, the captain. His

00:45:36.989 --> 00:45:40.750
name is Rachimski. Because you gotta get chimp

00:45:40.750 --> 00:45:45.630
in there somehow. It's Chimpski. God fucking

00:45:45.630 --> 00:45:50.969
damn it. Yeah. And there's also a random ripping

00:45:50.969 --> 00:45:53.530
sound in there as he puts it on, but we never

00:45:53.530 --> 00:45:57.769
see the rip or anything like that. He's looking

00:45:57.769 --> 00:46:00.559
at a poster to see how to put it on right. But

00:46:00.559 --> 00:46:04.460
he figures it out. And as he's like going towards

00:46:04.460 --> 00:46:07.440
the ice with his skates, he also has it on backwards.

00:46:07.559 --> 00:46:09.460
It says Rich Hemsky on the front instead of the

00:46:09.460 --> 00:46:11.519
nuggets. He has it on backwards. He still didn't

00:46:11.519 --> 00:46:13.800
figure that out. But, you know, he's a genius

00:46:13.800 --> 00:46:17.360
and everything else. Fine. As he's sneaking towards

00:46:17.360 --> 00:46:19.900
the ice, Tara catches him and is like trying

00:46:19.900 --> 00:46:25.179
to tell him like, no, no. And he's like smiling

00:46:25.179 --> 00:46:31.519
at her and shaking his head. Yeah, he climbs

00:46:31.519 --> 00:46:39.000
over the glass, gets on the ice, and they just

00:46:39.000 --> 00:46:41.179
think it's another player. Yeah, he's short,

00:46:41.260 --> 00:46:43.159
but he's another player. So they pass him the

00:46:43.159 --> 00:46:48.219
puck. And this is my favorite thing. He was past

00:46:48.219 --> 00:46:50.500
center ice, then he was behind the line, then

00:46:50.500 --> 00:46:52.719
he was past it again, then he was behind it again,

00:46:52.860 --> 00:46:55.000
you know, that kind of stuff. But he's, like,

00:46:55.019 --> 00:46:58.260
super fast, even though he didn't know how to

00:46:58.260 --> 00:47:01.849
skate. Not even 24 hours ago. Not even. Not even

00:47:01.849 --> 00:47:04.889
12 hours ago. He didn't know how to skate. And

00:47:04.889 --> 00:47:07.150
he's like super fast. And he scores. He starts

00:47:07.150 --> 00:47:10.329
celebrating. And then the entire crowd realizes

00:47:10.329 --> 00:47:12.730
he's a chimp. And the crowd starts laughing.

00:47:12.969 --> 00:47:14.889
And the goal doesn't count because he's an illegal

00:47:14.889 --> 00:47:19.369
player on the ice. And the crowd, as they're

00:47:19.369 --> 00:47:21.650
laughing, he walks off embarrassed and like climbs

00:47:21.650 --> 00:47:24.449
over the glass. And he's like very embarrassed

00:47:24.449 --> 00:47:29.530
by this. And Tara kind of like. finds him and

00:47:29.530 --> 00:47:32.269
makes him feel better and she like brings him

00:47:32.269 --> 00:47:36.269
home yeah they still lose that game somehow um

00:47:36.269 --> 00:47:39.550
the nuggets do but it goes to the team meeting

00:47:39.550 --> 00:47:44.730
afterwards with the coach talking to like the

00:47:44.730 --> 00:47:48.469
other representatives of the teams in the league

00:47:48.469 --> 00:47:52.929
and coach marlo is like trying to bring fans

00:47:52.929 --> 00:47:55.409
into the seats and he just saw this chimp play

00:47:55.409 --> 00:47:59.440
so he's like let's bring let's bring fans in

00:47:59.440 --> 00:48:05.159
the seats let's have a chimp play and like this

00:48:05.159 --> 00:48:07.099
team meeting happens and they're just kind of

00:48:07.099 --> 00:48:09.400
like they're laughing about it but they're just

00:48:09.400 --> 00:48:12.260
like yeah sure whatever they could win a championship

00:48:12.260 --> 00:48:15.280
with him and somebody goes a chimpionship oh

00:48:15.280 --> 00:48:20.960
my god yeah so yeah that's uh that's what's gonna

00:48:20.960 --> 00:48:23.440
happen this chimp is going to play on the nuggets

00:48:23.440 --> 00:48:26.739
team now so here we go here's the montage moment

00:48:27.159 --> 00:48:29.980
This is the montage moment of MVP Most Valuable

00:48:29.980 --> 00:48:34.639
Primate. It's the first game with the chimp.

00:48:34.780 --> 00:48:37.860
And off the first faceoff, Stephen wins it. He

00:48:37.860 --> 00:48:40.539
passes it to Jack. And they prove to be a great

00:48:40.539 --> 00:48:44.699
team because they score immediately. And Jack

00:48:44.699 --> 00:48:46.980
makes the defenseman look bad because he's, like,

00:48:46.980 --> 00:48:49.280
playing behind the ref, which is hysterical because

00:48:49.280 --> 00:48:51.679
the ref's just like, can't cover your player,

00:48:51.780 --> 00:48:54.820
eh? Oh, you're a hoser. You know, like, it's...

00:48:55.099 --> 00:48:58.079
over -the -top canadian it's over -the -top monkey

00:48:58.079 --> 00:49:01.000
business that kind of stuff they win the first

00:49:01.000 --> 00:49:04.280
game they ever play or that jack ever plays in

00:49:04.280 --> 00:49:06.519
and it's the first win in like three seasons

00:49:06.519 --> 00:49:10.579
you know and everybody's celebrating they now

00:49:10.579 --> 00:49:12.719
feel good because like everything's going their

00:49:12.719 --> 00:49:15.800
way they now got a chimp on their team they got

00:49:15.800 --> 00:49:18.559
their first win the monkeys off their back yes

00:49:18.559 --> 00:49:21.119
pun intended i really did intend that pun and

00:49:21.119 --> 00:49:25.170
that hurts But everything's going well for them

00:49:25.170 --> 00:49:28.349
thus far for the hockey team. It's also going

00:49:28.349 --> 00:49:30.210
well for Tara because she's also starting to

00:49:30.210 --> 00:49:32.449
make friends. She brought Jack in for show and

00:49:32.449 --> 00:49:35.969
tell. And he's teaching them sign language. And

00:49:35.969 --> 00:49:39.070
they're starting to sign back to Tara. And she

00:49:39.070 --> 00:49:40.570
doesn't feel as alone because she's starting

00:49:40.570 --> 00:49:45.030
to make friends. And Steven also has confidence

00:49:45.030 --> 00:49:49.030
because now he knows that Jack's going to be

00:49:49.030 --> 00:49:51.849
on the team. So he's kind of like, let me help

00:49:51.849 --> 00:49:54.369
the team get better too. I'm going to help Magoo.

00:49:54.929 --> 00:49:57.670
I'm going to help him get better. So remember

00:49:57.670 --> 00:50:00.309
how I was asking you, what did they do to fix

00:50:00.309 --> 00:50:04.409
Magoo? His name is fucking Magoo. If you couldn't

00:50:04.409 --> 00:50:08.269
guess that he couldn't see, you lost this one.

00:50:08.449 --> 00:50:11.909
Yep, they get Magoo glasses. And Magoo becomes

00:50:11.909 --> 00:50:14.730
an outstanding goalie because he wears glasses.

00:50:15.190 --> 00:50:18.070
And yes, the crowd start wearing glasses to celebrate

00:50:18.070 --> 00:50:20.730
Magoo. It's a fucking wild thing in Major League.

00:50:20.809 --> 00:50:23.480
They just copied it. They literally just copied

00:50:23.480 --> 00:50:27.900
it. It was an exact copy paste of Magoo wearing

00:50:27.900 --> 00:50:30.880
glasses and the crowd wearing the glasses too.

00:50:31.320 --> 00:50:33.940
So they start winning games because Magoo now

00:50:33.940 --> 00:50:38.440
is the goalie that's stopping everything. And

00:50:38.440 --> 00:50:42.179
so mom and dad also, they're happy. They're very

00:50:42.179 --> 00:50:46.780
happy. They love Jack. Jack's great. Jack is

00:50:46.780 --> 00:50:49.480
doing things around the house. The people that

00:50:49.480 --> 00:50:51.840
were freaking out, like the Uptight Club and

00:50:51.840 --> 00:50:54.659
everything like that, at first they were like,

00:50:54.780 --> 00:50:56.579
no, we don't like this, everything like that.

00:50:57.380 --> 00:50:59.860
They couldn't get the star on the Christmas tree

00:50:59.860 --> 00:51:02.099
in the community. But Jack climbs up the Christmas

00:51:02.099 --> 00:51:04.699
tree and he puts it down and he, oh, yay, this

00:51:04.699 --> 00:51:07.099
is great. Jack helped us get our Christmas tree

00:51:07.099 --> 00:51:10.380
star up there. And he's drawing crowds for games.

00:51:10.679 --> 00:51:14.260
People are excited. Magoo's wearing his glasses.

00:51:14.360 --> 00:51:17.500
Tara's making friends. Steven's happy. Everything's

00:51:17.500 --> 00:51:20.539
going well. There's inspirational music. And

00:51:20.539 --> 00:51:22.860
it's the final game of the season. They get their

00:51:22.860 --> 00:51:25.820
big rivals for the big game. And with 20 seconds

00:51:25.820 --> 00:51:30.139
left, they are tied 2 -2. Jack gets the puck.

00:51:30.280 --> 00:51:32.900
And he shoots. And he fires this thing. This

00:51:32.900 --> 00:51:37.219
thing is just absolutely just ripped. And...

00:51:37.639 --> 00:51:40.659
Time expires because it didn't go in and everybody's

00:51:40.659 --> 00:51:42.699
disappointed, including Jack. He's just like,

00:51:42.760 --> 00:51:49.940
you know, like he's upset. But Tara tells Steven

00:51:49.940 --> 00:51:53.559
to check the net. And he tells the ref, yeah,

00:51:53.639 --> 00:51:56.480
check the net. Because Tara has seen this before.

00:51:56.559 --> 00:51:59.000
She knows what happened. And they check the net

00:51:59.000 --> 00:52:02.000
and it went through the net and they win. And

00:52:02.000 --> 00:52:04.320
now they're Harvest Cup bound. They're headed

00:52:04.320 --> 00:52:10.059
to the championship. And so everything's going

00:52:10.059 --> 00:52:14.400
well, right? What could go wrong? Well, it's

00:52:14.400 --> 00:52:16.599
at the university again, and the dean is watching

00:52:16.599 --> 00:52:20.039
TV and just so happens to be watching sports,

00:52:20.199 --> 00:52:23.460
and they're talking about the play of the day.

00:52:24.000 --> 00:52:26.739
The hockey player in Nelson that happens to be

00:52:26.739 --> 00:52:31.380
a monkey that fired a goal through the net and

00:52:31.380 --> 00:52:34.019
won them the game and sent them to the Harvest

00:52:34.019 --> 00:52:37.949
Cup. And so the Dean, Dr. Peabody learns that

00:52:37.949 --> 00:52:40.489
he's in Nelson, Canada. So he's going to go up

00:52:40.489 --> 00:52:42.230
there and he's going to get Jack. So he calls

00:52:42.230 --> 00:52:44.869
Einstein and they're on their way. They're going

00:52:44.869 --> 00:52:47.829
to Nelson, Canada. I didn't write this one down,

00:52:47.909 --> 00:52:50.289
but he also, he was like eating something or

00:52:50.289 --> 00:52:51.829
something like that. Remember how I told you

00:52:51.829 --> 00:52:53.769
the bit he was wearing a white suit. He spilled

00:52:53.769 --> 00:52:56.190
whatever he was eating or drinking on himself.

00:52:56.289 --> 00:53:00.030
And yeah. Okay, great. He knocked something on

00:53:00.030 --> 00:53:04.179
his white suit. It's not a good bit, so I didn't

00:53:04.179 --> 00:53:05.719
write it down every time, but I didn't realize

00:53:05.719 --> 00:53:07.159
they were going to keep it going as a bit, so

00:53:07.159 --> 00:53:09.440
I didn't take a note about it. So it happened

00:53:09.440 --> 00:53:11.460
again. I know that it happened again. It was

00:53:11.460 --> 00:53:16.780
stupid. I don't know. So yeah, they're going

00:53:16.780 --> 00:53:19.440
to head up to Nelson, Canada, and they're going

00:53:19.440 --> 00:53:25.679
to go to get Jack. So the only thing left to

00:53:25.679 --> 00:53:29.179
do, I mean, there's only the Harvest Cup left,

00:53:29.360 --> 00:53:33.469
except for maybe one or two things. So Steven

00:53:33.469 --> 00:53:36.909
goes to the ice rink, and he sees that Pete,

00:53:37.070 --> 00:53:41.889
the captain, is practicing alone. He doesn't

00:53:41.889 --> 00:53:44.769
look injured, but he looks down. He does look

00:53:44.769 --> 00:53:47.829
down. So he's practicing alone. He's skating

00:53:47.829 --> 00:53:50.369
backwards. He doesn't look injured, so maybe

00:53:50.369 --> 00:53:54.949
something's going on. And then Tara's, like,

00:53:54.969 --> 00:53:57.710
packing some things because they're still trying

00:53:57.710 --> 00:54:00.030
to figure out where Jack's family's from and

00:54:00.030 --> 00:54:02.780
everything like that. And for some reason, the

00:54:02.780 --> 00:54:05.659
picture that Jack's always carried around doing

00:54:05.659 --> 00:54:07.880
this stuff and everything like that of his family,

00:54:08.000 --> 00:54:12.380
she took it out of the frame finally and realized

00:54:12.380 --> 00:54:15.800
on the back it says El Simeon Chimp Reserve and

00:54:15.800 --> 00:54:19.920
realizes that's home. So she's like, oh, we finally

00:54:19.920 --> 00:54:22.679
found home. After the Harvest Cup, we can send

00:54:22.679 --> 00:54:26.809
him home. They're going to go to the Harvest

00:54:26.809 --> 00:54:28.510
Cup, and then they're going to send him to El

00:54:28.510 --> 00:54:30.789
Simi and Chimp Reserve. She's sad about it, but

00:54:30.789 --> 00:54:34.309
she knows this is the right move. Harvest Cup

00:54:34.309 --> 00:54:36.389
is in Vancouver. It's going to be played at the

00:54:36.389 --> 00:54:40.070
Canucks Stadium. It's really cool. And the Nuggets

00:54:40.070 --> 00:54:41.949
are going to be playing the Calgary Polar Bears,

00:54:42.110 --> 00:54:44.650
and they are a good team, like a really good

00:54:44.650 --> 00:54:46.429
team. And when I tell you this is men against

00:54:46.429 --> 00:54:49.849
boys, these guys look big. And after one period,

00:54:50.030 --> 00:54:57.039
it is 1 -0 Polar Bears. period tara is walking

00:54:57.039 --> 00:55:01.219
around and she happens to run into uh she literally

00:55:01.219 --> 00:55:03.920
turns around with her hot chocolate and spills

00:55:03.920 --> 00:55:08.820
it on the pants of the white suit of dr peabody

00:55:08.820 --> 00:55:13.800
dr peabody is carrying a sign that says wanted

00:55:13.800 --> 00:55:19.420
and it's jack and she gets scared and runs away

00:55:19.420 --> 00:55:22.719
because of course she knows where jack is so

00:55:23.130 --> 00:55:28.230
dr peabody and einstein uh follow her and she

00:55:28.230 --> 00:55:32.130
goes to the locker room and coach marlo answers

00:55:32.130 --> 00:55:35.869
the door to dr peabody and dr peabody is like

00:55:35.869 --> 00:55:39.469
i need to know where that monkey is and coach

00:55:39.469 --> 00:55:43.469
marlo goes you're gonna go to a hockey team and

00:55:43.469 --> 00:55:46.710
try to find their star player when they have

00:55:46.710 --> 00:55:49.190
a bunch of muscle and like move steps forward

00:55:49.190 --> 00:55:52.460
like punching his hand into his you know, punching

00:55:52.460 --> 00:55:55.500
his hand and try to ask for their star player.

00:55:55.980 --> 00:56:00.980
I don't think that's a very good idea. And so

00:56:00.980 --> 00:56:06.320
the Dean and Einstein are just like, okay, we're

00:56:06.320 --> 00:56:08.800
going to try to grab Jack at the end of the game.

00:56:10.079 --> 00:56:13.739
But what we learned previously is Tara, even

00:56:13.739 --> 00:56:15.920
though she's deaf, she's a great lip reader and

00:56:15.920 --> 00:56:19.800
she was able to read the lips of the Dean. So

00:56:19.800 --> 00:56:23.659
Tara, runs to the bench and tells Steven that

00:56:23.659 --> 00:56:30.340
they're going to grab Jack at the end of the

00:56:30.340 --> 00:56:37.179
game. And so in between the second and third

00:56:37.179 --> 00:56:40.260
period, when they're in the locker room, they're

00:56:40.260 --> 00:56:44.340
coming up with a plan. And, of course, they whisper

00:56:44.340 --> 00:56:46.440
their idea so we as the audience can't hear.

00:56:47.610 --> 00:56:49.210
And this is the part where they're saying their

00:56:49.210 --> 00:56:51.469
goodbyes because they already knew that they

00:56:51.469 --> 00:56:53.530
were going to say goodbye to Jack because after

00:56:53.530 --> 00:56:55.989
the game they were going to send him to El Simeon.

00:56:56.869 --> 00:57:00.190
So Stosh gives Jack a knitted hat because remember

00:57:00.190 --> 00:57:02.989
his whole bit was that he knits. I have to remind

00:57:02.989 --> 00:57:07.949
you because I almost forgot about it. And everybody

00:57:07.949 --> 00:57:10.010
says their goodbyes and everything like that

00:57:10.010 --> 00:57:12.230
because after the game they're just going to

00:57:12.230 --> 00:57:17.119
send him to El Simeon. And so... When they go

00:57:17.119 --> 00:57:22.280
back out on the ice, Jack leads the way, Magoo,

00:57:22.559 --> 00:57:26.280
everybody. But Steven's out with an injury. And

00:57:26.280 --> 00:57:30.599
Pete is in his place, the captain. He's back.

00:57:30.699 --> 00:57:32.940
He doesn't have a mysterious injury anymore.

00:57:33.039 --> 00:57:37.159
He's back. And Steven then hops in a cab with

00:57:37.159 --> 00:57:42.300
Tara. And it's getting close to the end of the

00:57:42.300 --> 00:57:45.460
game. Well, so Steven's in the cab, and he's

00:57:45.460 --> 00:57:47.239
like, can you turn on the game? And the cabbie's

00:57:47.239 --> 00:57:48.960
just like, yeah, I know exactly what that is.

00:57:48.980 --> 00:57:51.380
It's the Harvest Cup. Duh. Everybody knows what

00:57:51.380 --> 00:57:55.019
that is. But yeah, so he turns on the game. So

00:57:55.019 --> 00:57:58.719
Steven's hearing the game with Tara. And at the

00:57:58.719 --> 00:58:01.840
end of the game, Pete fires a shot that sits

00:58:01.840 --> 00:58:05.639
on the line. It's like right there. And Jack

00:58:05.639 --> 00:58:10.380
slides under the legs of a player and knocks

00:58:10.380 --> 00:58:13.760
it in to win. And so everybody's losing their

00:58:13.760 --> 00:58:16.260
minds. Oh, my God. Jack won it. Jack won it.

00:58:16.280 --> 00:58:20.320
Jack won it. They're carrying Jack off. Jack

00:58:20.320 --> 00:58:23.539
off. Yes, I heard it. I heard it myself. Yes.

00:58:23.679 --> 00:58:26.159
So they're carrying Jack on their shoulders.

00:58:26.280 --> 00:58:27.840
I'm not going to say it again. They're carrying

00:58:27.840 --> 00:58:31.980
Jack on their shoulders. And Jack lifts their

00:58:31.980 --> 00:58:34.340
helmets just as the Dean gets there. And it's

00:58:34.340 --> 00:58:39.079
Tara. And Tara just put on Jack's clothes and

00:58:39.079 --> 00:58:41.760
just happens to be the same size. And Steven

00:58:41.760 --> 00:58:46.539
is in the cab with Jack. I have one problem with

00:58:46.539 --> 00:58:49.119
this, though. I don't care that Taro's wearing

00:58:49.119 --> 00:58:51.320
Jack's jersey and playing. I don't care. They're

00:58:51.320 --> 00:58:54.340
about the same size. I'm fine, whatever. Actually,

00:58:54.619 --> 00:58:56.800
Taro's probably worse than Jack, so I don't care.

00:58:57.179 --> 00:59:02.000
It's not like it's the same player almost, whatever.

00:59:03.619 --> 00:59:11.760
My problem was after Pete shoots the shot, The

00:59:11.760 --> 00:59:14.760
goalie kind of deflects it, but it sits on the

00:59:14.760 --> 00:59:19.579
line like it sits right on the line. The goalie

00:59:19.579 --> 00:59:23.659
should be able to sit on it or whatever, or defenseman

00:59:23.659 --> 00:59:26.300
could get in there, I guess, whatever. But the

00:59:26.300 --> 00:59:33.519
goalie gets essentially sat on by Moose. That

00:59:33.519 --> 00:59:37.980
is goalie interference. If you guys are hockey

00:59:37.980 --> 00:59:41.139
fans. You know what I'm talking about. If you're

00:59:41.139 --> 00:59:43.719
not a hockey fan, the goalie has every right

00:59:43.719 --> 00:59:48.360
to play that puck. They should not be interfered

00:59:48.360 --> 00:59:53.699
with. That is a penalty. There is no way in hell

00:59:53.699 --> 00:59:58.300
Moose should be sitting on top of that goalie.

00:59:58.300 --> 01:00:01.219
That is 1 million percent goalie interference.

01:00:01.940 --> 01:00:05.280
I do not care what is happening. That is goalie

01:00:05.280 --> 01:00:07.989
interference. That goal should not have counted.

01:00:08.090 --> 01:00:12.730
That should be going to overtime. This is a terrible

01:00:12.730 --> 01:00:15.849
script that you let that happen and occur. This

01:00:15.849 --> 01:00:19.050
is bullshit. They should be disqualified from

01:00:19.050 --> 01:00:21.909
the Harvest Cup for claiming that victory. Or

01:00:21.909 --> 01:00:24.289
at least it should go to overtime. I do not care.

01:00:24.889 --> 01:00:29.449
Whatever. Fine. Whatever. You guys cheated. Calgary

01:00:29.449 --> 01:00:33.690
should win the Harvest Cup. Bullshit. Or at least

01:00:33.690 --> 01:00:36.559
go to overtime. I don't care. This is bullshit.

01:00:36.960 --> 01:00:41.840
They should not have won on that goal. All right,

01:00:41.840 --> 01:00:45.239
fine. I'm fucking frustrated, but fine. So Steven

01:00:45.239 --> 01:00:47.639
gets the airport with Jack and he gets him there.

01:00:47.980 --> 01:00:50.900
And like, they're just cool with the fact that

01:00:50.900 --> 01:00:53.460
a monkey is going to hop on a plane to get to

01:00:53.460 --> 01:00:57.980
El Simeon, whatever. And they also got him like

01:00:57.980 --> 01:01:03.190
a last second, first class seat, whatever. And

01:01:03.190 --> 01:01:05.309
none of this bothers me as much as the goalie

01:01:05.309 --> 01:01:07.650
interference. I'm like really still frustrated

01:01:07.650 --> 01:01:09.730
about this. And I watched this movie a week ago.

01:01:11.210 --> 01:01:14.650
It's still frustrating to me, but yeah. So as

01:01:14.650 --> 01:01:16.889
Steven's walking away, he's happy that his team

01:01:16.889 --> 01:01:20.369
won, but at the same time he's frustrated or

01:01:20.369 --> 01:01:23.190
he, he gave up his opportunity to play professionally,

01:01:23.230 --> 01:01:28.010
but he's happy that he got Jack to go home. And

01:01:28.010 --> 01:01:31.679
he's also happy that his team won. And so Steven

01:01:31.679 --> 01:01:34.059
looks one more time at Jack, and Jack looks at

01:01:34.059 --> 01:01:38.519
him. And he signs, I love you, Adam. And Steven

01:01:38.519 --> 01:01:42.079
signs, I love you too, Adam. And then he's just

01:01:42.079 --> 01:01:44.300
able to get back to celebrate with the team and

01:01:44.300 --> 01:01:49.380
his sister in enough time. And Jack is flying

01:01:49.380 --> 01:01:52.440
back on the first class seat, which is ridiculous.

01:01:53.440 --> 01:01:57.519
And the coach, Coach Marlow, he's really proud

01:01:57.519 --> 01:02:00.860
of Steven. And he called up one of his old contacts.

01:02:01.460 --> 01:02:04.400
And it's one of his old contacts that is in charge

01:02:04.400 --> 01:02:08.900
of the WHL team in Vancouver. And basically the

01:02:08.900 --> 01:02:12.320
guy comes up and he goes, Stephen, I heard what

01:02:12.320 --> 01:02:13.840
you've done. I've heard what you've done with

01:02:13.840 --> 01:02:16.380
this team. I love your character. I love what

01:02:16.380 --> 01:02:19.599
you've done this season. I'd love to ask you

01:02:19.599 --> 01:02:23.699
to join our WHL team in Vancouver. So Stephen

01:02:23.699 --> 01:02:26.500
does get to join a WHL team. Great. Awesome.

01:02:27.019 --> 01:02:29.619
So his sister doesn't get to come, but, you know,

01:02:29.659 --> 01:02:32.260
he does get to join the WHL team. That's great.

01:02:33.679 --> 01:02:35.679
And his parents are proud of him, and everybody

01:02:35.679 --> 01:02:38.800
gets a happy ending on the human end. And Jack

01:02:38.800 --> 01:02:42.619
gets to El Simeon Reserve finally. And who was

01:02:42.619 --> 01:02:45.739
waiting for him there? Darren, the maintenance

01:02:45.739 --> 01:02:49.710
guy. He got a job working at the reserve. And

01:02:49.710 --> 01:02:51.730
honestly, I actually love that. I think that

01:02:51.730 --> 01:02:53.610
was great. That was a nice little touch because

01:02:53.610 --> 01:02:55.550
Darren was very happy to see him and he was so

01:02:55.550 --> 01:02:58.670
happy to get there. And so Darren gives a big

01:02:58.670 --> 01:03:01.909
old hug, puts him down, and Jack goes to presumably

01:03:01.909 --> 01:03:06.849
join his family. Happy ending for all. Mike,

01:03:06.889 --> 01:03:09.349
why would you shit on this kid's movie? Everybody's

01:03:09.349 --> 01:03:13.690
happy. Everybody's good. Yeah, this was bullshit.

01:03:13.929 --> 01:03:15.969
I'm still mad about goalie interference. This

01:03:15.969 --> 01:03:21.420
is fucking nonsense. let's just talk about it

01:03:21.420 --> 01:03:27.400
so i know it's a kid's movie so the the bad guy

01:03:27.400 --> 01:03:29.340
is going to be cartoonishly evil but this was

01:03:29.340 --> 01:03:32.619
like two over the top cartoonishly evil and the

01:03:32.619 --> 01:03:35.880
bit was dumb that bit of him just getting stuff

01:03:35.880 --> 01:03:39.099
on his white suit was just dumb over and over

01:03:39.099 --> 01:03:41.099
and over again it happened three times i know

01:03:41.099 --> 01:03:46.869
it was only three times but it was dumb uh The

01:03:46.869 --> 01:03:49.969
errors of leaving stuff like his skates and his

01:03:49.969 --> 01:03:52.690
stick pass to him annoyed me. And there was more

01:03:52.690 --> 01:03:56.829
than just that. That was the big one. There was

01:03:56.829 --> 01:03:59.650
a couple times where I brought up the fact that

01:03:59.650 --> 01:04:01.849
he was skating. He was behind the center line.

01:04:02.010 --> 01:04:03.530
Then he was in front of it. Then he was behind

01:04:03.530 --> 01:04:05.030
it again. Then he was in front of it. Then he

01:04:05.030 --> 01:04:08.429
was behind it again. That kind of stuff. Lots

01:04:08.429 --> 01:04:10.849
of errors like that. There was a lot of that

01:04:10.849 --> 01:04:16.210
kind of stuff left in there. It's what? 16th

01:04:16.210 --> 01:04:18.570
movie these guys have done so like they just

01:04:18.570 --> 01:04:21.309
don't care anymore it's printing money at this

01:04:21.309 --> 01:04:23.670
point because it's a kid's movie about an animal

01:04:23.670 --> 01:04:26.309
playing a sport they just don't care probably

01:04:26.309 --> 01:04:28.510
at this point they're just like give me my money

01:04:28.510 --> 01:04:32.869
let's spit out the next buddies movie and let's

01:04:32.869 --> 01:04:35.449
go to the next one that's probably what it is

01:04:35.449 --> 01:04:37.610
is they just don't care anymore i don't know

01:04:37.610 --> 01:04:39.510
maybe i'm wrong about that i don't know anything

01:04:39.510 --> 01:04:42.090
about these people but maybe that's just what

01:04:42.090 --> 01:04:48.650
it is truthfully i'll say this felt like a cash

01:04:48.650 --> 01:04:51.090
grab because it felt like the same script as

01:04:51.090 --> 01:04:54.449
the first airbud movie it's just people chasing

01:04:54.449 --> 01:04:58.530
airbud trying to get it back and wanting to make

01:04:58.530 --> 01:05:03.429
money off of them and they play sport get rescued

01:05:03.429 --> 01:05:07.690
or saved and win championship and that's just

01:05:07.690 --> 01:05:09.489
what kids movies are supposed to be don't get

01:05:09.489 --> 01:05:14.679
me wrong but because it's from the same people

01:05:14.679 --> 01:05:18.400
over and over and over again to me it feels like

01:05:18.400 --> 01:05:24.539
a cash grab it feels it feels dirty in some ways

01:05:24.539 --> 01:05:31.480
i don't know maybe i probably am not supposed

01:05:31.480 --> 01:05:33.619
to be the one doing this because this is just

01:05:33.619 --> 01:05:38.760
for the next group of kids like the next kids

01:05:38.760 --> 01:05:41.079
are going to watch airbud returns that comes

01:05:41.079 --> 01:05:44.449
out this year That is produced and directed by

01:05:44.449 --> 01:05:47.610
the same people. That directed the first Air

01:05:47.610 --> 01:05:51.369
Bud. This is not meant for me who saw Air Bud

01:05:51.369 --> 01:05:56.369
originally. This is meant for the next 8, 9,

01:05:56.389 --> 01:06:00.289
10 year old. So I guess maybe that's what it

01:06:00.289 --> 01:06:04.389
comes from. But for me who did see the original

01:06:04.389 --> 01:06:09.730
Air Bud. This felt phony and toxic almost. I

01:06:09.730 --> 01:06:14.860
don't know. Overall, I did like Darren in the

01:06:14.860 --> 01:06:21.280
niceness category. I did not like his mental

01:06:21.280 --> 01:06:25.179
capacity. I will say that. I don't like that

01:06:25.179 --> 01:06:28.480
I would have to explain death to a kid if they

01:06:28.480 --> 01:06:30.599
questioned about Dr. Kendall and why he's no

01:06:30.599 --> 01:06:35.219
longer a part of this. My biggest problem is

01:06:35.219 --> 01:06:39.179
that Jack just barely learned how to skate and

01:06:39.179 --> 01:06:41.829
now all of a sudden he's a... pro expert but

01:06:41.829 --> 01:06:45.070
at the same time would i show this to my kid

01:06:45.070 --> 01:06:48.929
yeah probably probably and maybe it would get

01:06:48.929 --> 01:06:50.829
them excited about playing hockey and i would

01:06:50.829 --> 01:06:55.650
be okay with that you know so it's weird it's

01:06:55.650 --> 01:06:59.309
a weird movie because for me i'm going to give

01:06:59.309 --> 01:07:01.429
this the mitchell zero point five out of five

01:07:01.429 --> 01:07:07.130
uh point five out of five uh pucks through nets

01:07:07.130 --> 01:07:13.530
um But for him, he might love it. My son might

01:07:13.530 --> 01:07:16.150
love this movie eventually when he's old enough

01:07:16.150 --> 01:07:18.289
to understand what's going on. He's not old enough

01:07:18.289 --> 01:07:21.730
now, but he might love it eventually. That being

01:07:21.730 --> 01:07:25.329
said, I never want to watch this movie again,

01:07:25.429 --> 01:07:28.630
so he might be on his own to watch it when he's

01:07:28.630 --> 01:07:31.409
old enough. I might just put it on and be like,

01:07:31.510 --> 01:07:34.190
cool, I'm making dinner. Why don't you watch

01:07:34.190 --> 01:07:36.980
this while I'm busy? You know, when he's old

01:07:36.980 --> 01:07:38.460
enough, obviously I'm not going to just like

01:07:38.460 --> 01:07:41.159
put him in front of a TV while I could be playing

01:07:41.159 --> 01:07:43.159
with him or whatever. I'm not going to just like,

01:07:43.219 --> 01:07:45.320
here you go. You do this. I'm going to go take

01:07:45.320 --> 01:07:50.079
a nap. This would be like, cool. I need to clean

01:07:50.079 --> 01:07:53.539
the house, vacuum, whatever. You can see me while

01:07:53.539 --> 01:07:56.679
you're doing your thing. That kind of thing.

01:07:59.860 --> 01:08:04.179
Something like that. But yeah, I don't think

01:08:04.179 --> 01:08:06.949
I would. Go out of my way to watch this one again.

01:08:07.010 --> 01:08:12.030
For sure. I probably though. Out of all the options.

01:08:12.130 --> 01:08:15.010
I would rather him watch the first Air Bud. That's

01:08:15.010 --> 01:08:19.149
definitely what I would rather do. So. Although

01:08:19.149 --> 01:08:21.909
hockey is better than basketball. In my opinion.

01:08:22.189 --> 01:08:25.449
Argue with a tree. That's all I will say to that.

01:08:26.550 --> 01:08:32.350
So yeah. Most valuable primate. I did like Jack.

01:08:33.069 --> 01:08:37.399
Jack was very well handled. I did believe he

01:08:37.399 --> 01:08:45.039
was the best actor out of all these. Yeah. I

01:08:45.039 --> 01:08:48.039
don't know where to go with this. I don't want

01:08:48.039 --> 01:08:50.260
to talk any further to shit on this kid's movie,

01:08:50.359 --> 01:08:53.359
but I do want to shit on this kid's movie. It

01:08:53.359 --> 01:08:55.920
was not very well acted by everybody involved

01:08:55.920 --> 01:09:01.420
except for the monkey. It was not very well written

01:09:01.420 --> 01:09:06.699
at all for damn sure. The dean was terrible,

01:09:06.939 --> 01:09:10.319
cartoonishly evil for no reason. I don't understand

01:09:10.319 --> 01:09:14.319
why alumni would just stop paying money just

01:09:14.319 --> 01:09:18.779
because the monkey disappeared. Because I think

01:09:18.779 --> 01:09:22.680
that alumni would stop paying money if you sold

01:09:22.680 --> 01:09:27.079
the chimp to the University of Tennessee. I think

01:09:27.079 --> 01:09:29.680
they would be happier if you said, hey, he went

01:09:29.680 --> 01:09:32.909
back home to be with his family. at the El Simeon

01:09:32.909 --> 01:09:36.729
Chimp Reserve. But if you just sold him to go

01:09:36.729 --> 01:09:39.949
to the University of Tennessee to continue hepatitis

01:09:39.949 --> 01:09:44.369
research, I think they would probably then stop

01:09:44.369 --> 01:09:50.430
paying donations and stuff like that. I don't...

01:09:50.430 --> 01:09:53.890
Maybe I'm wrong. I've never run a university.

01:09:54.149 --> 01:09:58.220
I couldn't tell you. That he just disappeared?

01:09:58.319 --> 01:10:00.659
I don't think anybody would be like, okay, he

01:10:00.659 --> 01:10:03.319
disappeared. We're going to stop our donations.

01:10:06.939 --> 01:10:10.420
Maybe I'm wrong, but I think that felt a little

01:10:10.420 --> 01:10:13.859
just, okay, we're going to add another layer

01:10:13.859 --> 01:10:17.760
to this. They stopped donating money. Now, if

01:10:17.760 --> 01:10:20.699
they just made it so he didn't arrive and University

01:10:20.699 --> 01:10:22.439
of Tennessee is just like, yeah, we're not going

01:10:22.439 --> 01:10:26.350
to pay you. Great. That was enough. Yeah, we're

01:10:26.350 --> 01:10:28.529
not going to pay you for this monkey that you

01:10:28.529 --> 01:10:31.909
said you'd get to us. That's great. That makes

01:10:31.909 --> 01:10:36.149
sense to me. You promised us a good service slash

01:10:36.149 --> 01:10:39.869
monkey. Then yeah, cool. I'm not going to pay

01:10:39.869 --> 01:10:45.529
you either. You didn't get us our monkey. A lot

01:10:45.529 --> 01:10:48.529
of this could have been handled by the fact that

01:10:48.529 --> 01:10:51.229
you just don't put a monkey on his own on a train

01:10:51.229 --> 01:10:54.609
also. That was another thing that was just like,

01:10:54.670 --> 01:10:56.430
oh, we're going to put him on a train by himself.

01:10:56.649 --> 01:10:58.329
And then we're going to put him on a taxi by

01:10:58.329 --> 01:11:00.770
himself. And we also are going to put him on

01:11:00.770 --> 01:11:03.270
a plane by himself at the end of the movie. But

01:11:03.270 --> 01:11:07.569
that seemed to work, I guess. Fine. And then

01:11:07.569 --> 01:11:12.770
I don't like the fact. So I started getting on

01:11:12.770 --> 01:11:17.649
this. They just plotted away half of this movie

01:11:17.649 --> 01:11:21.550
by Dr. Kendall saying, yeah, Jack, you're a genius.

01:11:22.329 --> 01:11:27.109
act like a genius that drove me insane in the

01:11:27.109 --> 01:11:30.369
fact that they just got away with like half of

01:11:30.369 --> 01:11:34.189
this because they were like jack you're a genius

01:11:34.189 --> 01:11:39.130
monkey just be a genius and he's able to get

01:11:39.130 --> 01:11:41.789
out of any situation because he's a genius he

01:11:41.789 --> 01:11:46.090
got to nelson canada and just happened to have

01:11:46.090 --> 01:11:49.180
winter clothes because he's a genius And he got

01:11:49.180 --> 01:11:51.539
to a tree house because he's a genius and found

01:11:51.539 --> 01:11:56.359
a place to stay. And he got out of the house

01:11:56.359 --> 01:11:58.560
because he's a genius. And he found where they

01:11:58.560 --> 01:12:00.619
were going because he's a genius. And he figured

01:12:00.619 --> 01:12:02.300
out that he wasn't going to be able to get in

01:12:02.300 --> 01:12:05.100
the arena because he's a genius. And he got to

01:12:05.100 --> 01:12:08.199
the skylight because he's a genius. Like, all

01:12:08.199 --> 01:12:10.800
these things just got explained away because

01:12:10.800 --> 01:12:14.659
of one throwaway line of, you're a genius. Cool.

01:12:16.019 --> 01:12:18.500
And probably more than just that, Darren put

01:12:18.500 --> 01:12:20.960
him on a train because he's genius by himself

01:12:20.960 --> 01:12:26.899
when he just slept through his stop. He put a

01:12:26.899 --> 01:12:29.380
banana peel on a guy's head. I didn't even go

01:12:29.380 --> 01:12:32.180
into that. He ate a banana and put it on a sleeping

01:12:32.180 --> 01:12:36.800
guy's bald head because he just funny, I guess.

01:12:36.920 --> 01:12:41.119
Just funny. Yeah, for a comedy, I did not laugh,

01:12:41.140 --> 01:12:45.640
by the way, too. But yeah, so. They just threw

01:12:45.640 --> 01:12:50.199
the line, he's a genius, and said, cool, he can

01:12:50.199 --> 01:12:55.500
get away with this because genius. And, like,

01:12:55.500 --> 01:12:58.899
he's a very smart monkey. He's a very smart chimpanzee.

01:12:59.159 --> 01:13:04.180
But just genius got them so much, like, they

01:13:04.180 --> 01:13:07.420
got away with so much because he's a genius.

01:13:07.500 --> 01:13:11.479
Cool. Yeah. Great. He can do whatever because

01:13:11.479 --> 01:13:17.399
he's a genius. So, I don't know. He figured out

01:13:17.399 --> 01:13:19.859
skating immediately because he's a genius. He

01:13:19.859 --> 01:13:21.739
figured out hockey right away because he's a

01:13:21.739 --> 01:13:24.460
genius. He's better than all these kids that

01:13:24.460 --> 01:13:27.159
have been practicing and playing for years. You

01:13:27.159 --> 01:13:33.279
know why? Because he's a genius. So, I don't

01:13:33.279 --> 01:13:36.880
know. That's my opinions on MVP colon Most Valuable

01:13:36.880 --> 01:13:39.600
Primate. I'm shitting on a kid's movie because

01:13:39.600 --> 01:13:41.680
that's what you do on this podcast. You shit

01:13:41.680 --> 01:13:47.000
on a kid's movie. So, yeah. Next Olympics, I'll

01:13:47.000 --> 01:13:49.239
probably watch Most Extreme Primate, where he

01:13:49.239 --> 01:13:52.000
learns how to snowboard. That's a real thing

01:13:52.000 --> 01:13:56.279
that exists, and it's 38%. And there's no critic

01:13:56.279 --> 01:13:58.520
score. There's not enough critic score to actually

01:13:58.520 --> 01:14:02.539
give it a critic score. Yay! Let's enjoy that

01:14:02.539 --> 01:14:06.479
snowboarding one. So, yeah. I have been Mike
