This week, Griffin and David discuss M. Night’s first ever R rated film, 2008’s The Happening. But is wind scary? Are any of the actors convincing they haven’t completely checked out? Why am I talking to a plastic plant? Together, #TheTwoFriends examine 9/11 imagery, why Kung Fu Panda is a better movie, impressions of nerds, and why Shyamalan calling this the “best B-movie you will ever see” is preposterous. Plus, the Departed sequel scoops and not seeing Hamilton.

[00:00:01] [SPEAKER_04]: Blank Check with Griffin and David, Blank Check with Griffin and David
[00:00:09] [SPEAKER_04]: Don't know what to say or to expect
[00:00:13] [SPEAKER_04]: All you need to know is that the name of the show is Blank Check
[00:00:20] [SPEAKER_01]: We've sensed it.
[00:00:22] [SPEAKER_01]: We've seen the signs.
[00:00:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Now it's podcasting!
[00:00:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, now there are two things to scoff at there.
[00:00:35] [SPEAKER_03]: The awful shoehorned wordplay.
[00:00:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Right, I did a bad job, but you know who didn't even worse job?
[00:00:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Whoever wrote the tagline for that movie, we sensed it.
[00:00:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we get it. The guy made the fucking six cents.
[00:00:45] [SPEAKER_01]: We've seen the signs.
[00:00:46] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we get it. The guy made the fucking signs.
[00:00:48] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't think everybody gets it, especially when they sensed it.
[00:00:52] [SPEAKER_01]: It's a little muddled.
[00:00:52] [SPEAKER_01]: He's also as always right above the title from writer-director M. Nyechom-Lon.
[00:00:56] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm David Sims.
[00:00:57] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm Griffin Newman.
[00:00:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Welcome to Blank Check podcast.

[00:01:18] [SPEAKER_03]: Other times we talk about other goofballs.
[00:01:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Right now we're talking about M. Night Shamalan.
[00:01:23] [SPEAKER_03]: We like directors.
[00:01:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes, we like directors.
[00:01:26] [SPEAKER_03]: And we're talking about M. Night.
[00:01:28] [SPEAKER_03]: And we're on to his eighth movie.
[00:01:31] [SPEAKER_01]: This is his eighth film. He's given a blank check.
[00:01:32] [SPEAKER_01]: He can keep making whatever he wants.
[00:01:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Who else is in the studio with us today?
[00:01:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, of course, our trusty producer,
[00:01:40] [SPEAKER_01]: aka our producer, the Ben Dooser.
[00:01:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Hey guys.
[00:01:44] [SPEAKER_01]: Ben Hosley, the Haas, Poet Laureate, the tiebreaker,
[00:01:47] [SPEAKER_01]: birthday Benny, Mr. Positive.
[00:01:48] [SPEAKER_01]: He is not Professor Crispy.
[00:01:50] [SPEAKER_01]: No.
[00:01:51] [SPEAKER_01]: He is the peeper.
[00:01:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, of course.
[00:01:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Who is he?
[00:01:54] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, he's nothing if not the peeper.
[00:01:58] [SPEAKER_01]: He has been known by Kylo Ben.
[00:02:00] [SPEAKER_01]: He has gone by producer Ben Kenobi.
[00:02:02] [SPEAKER_01]: And if you see him on the street,
[00:02:03] [SPEAKER_01]: greet him a hearty hello fennel.
[00:02:05] [SPEAKER_03]: He's due.
[00:02:06] [SPEAKER_03]: All right.
[00:02:06] [SPEAKER_03]: And in this studio as well is nobody else.
[00:02:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Nobody else.
[00:02:11] [SPEAKER_01]: So here's the first piece of housekeeping.
[00:02:13] [SPEAKER_01]: I last week promised James Urbaniac,
[00:02:15] [SPEAKER_01]: the great actor, beloved figure
[00:02:17] [SPEAKER_01]: of the indie film world.
[00:02:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:02:21] [SPEAKER_01]: You rashly said like, it's probably fine.
[00:02:24] [SPEAKER_01]: You don't need to cut that out.
[00:02:25] [SPEAKER_01]: I had talked to him earlier.
[00:02:27] [SPEAKER_01]: I did not cut it out by the way.
[00:02:28] [SPEAKER_01]: In the season.
[00:02:28] [SPEAKER_01]: I know.
[00:02:29] [SPEAKER_01]: I listened.
[00:02:30] [SPEAKER_01]: He is a buddy of mine earlier in the season.
[00:02:32] [SPEAKER_01]: I've been like, we're doing this.
[00:02:33] [SPEAKER_01]: He was going to be in New York.
[00:02:34] [SPEAKER_01]: No, no, of course.
[00:02:35] [SPEAKER_01]: Season two of Difficult People for like months,
[00:02:37] [SPEAKER_01]: for like two months.
[00:02:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, no beef James.
[00:02:38] [SPEAKER_01]: James was here.
[00:02:39] [SPEAKER_01]: James killed.
[00:02:39] [SPEAKER_01]: He was ready.
[00:02:40] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:02:41] [SPEAKER_01]: And I was like, great.
[00:02:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Would you want to do any of these movies?
[00:02:44] [SPEAKER_01]: And he went, I find the happening interesting.
[00:02:45] [SPEAKER_01]: And I went, great.
[00:02:46] [SPEAKER_01]: Let's lock it in.
[00:02:47] [SPEAKER_01]: I'll text you again in a couple weeks.
[00:02:49] [SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[00:02:50] [SPEAKER_01]: And then I texted him the day after we recorded our episode.
[00:02:53] [SPEAKER_01]: And I was like, we're ready for the happening.
[00:02:54] [SPEAKER_01]: And he was like, I flew back to LA yesterday.
[00:02:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Bye James.
[00:02:58] [SPEAKER_01]: So should have recorded that one in advance.
[00:03:00] [SPEAKER_01]: That one was on me.
[00:03:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Boing.
[00:03:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Hoisted by my own P-tar.
[00:03:05] [SPEAKER_01]: All right.
[00:03:05] [SPEAKER_01]: Well, doesn't matter.
[00:03:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Doesn't matter.
[00:03:07] [SPEAKER_01]: We don't really care.
[00:03:08] [SPEAKER_01]: This is a to, to, obviously I'd love to see,
[00:03:11] [SPEAKER_03]: have James on the podcast.
[00:03:12] [SPEAKER_03]: We will have more.
[00:03:12] [SPEAKER_03]: It'll be our.
[00:03:12] [SPEAKER_03]: I will promise that.
[00:03:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, well, nothing wrong has come me making James or
[00:03:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Baniac promises on this podcast.
[00:03:17] [SPEAKER_01]: We will have him on in the future.
[00:03:19] [SPEAKER_03]: But today it's just a solo.
[00:03:21] [SPEAKER_03]: It's a solo.
[00:03:22] [SPEAKER_03]: And by solo, three people in the studio.
[00:03:24] [SPEAKER_03]: That's what we mean.
[00:03:24] [SPEAKER_01]: It's a trail.
[00:03:25] [SPEAKER_01]: It's a three way.
[00:03:26] [SPEAKER_01]: It's a triangle.
[00:03:26] [SPEAKER_01]: This podcast triangle.
[00:03:28] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like the old days.
[00:03:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:03:30] [SPEAKER_03]: Feels good.
[00:03:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:03:31] [SPEAKER_03]: I was kind of, I was looking for a little bit of the old days,
[00:03:34] [SPEAKER_03]: guys.
[00:03:34] [SPEAKER_03]: I'll get out.
[00:03:34] [SPEAKER_03]: I've got to be honest.
[00:03:35] [SPEAKER_01]: I've had a stressful couple of weeks and this is like the first day
[00:03:39] [SPEAKER_01]: I've had a clear conscience for a while.
[00:03:41] [SPEAKER_01]: It's a nice, relaxed day.
[00:03:42] [SPEAKER_01]: So it's like a nice calm, like, you know, my life's together.
[00:03:45] [SPEAKER_01]: I just get to be in the room with my, my, the two friends and
[00:03:49] [SPEAKER_01]: then, and then our producer.
[00:03:51] [SPEAKER_01]: We are the two friends.
[00:03:53] [SPEAKER_03]: He is our friend, but he's not the two friends.
[00:03:56] [SPEAKER_01]: No, no.
[00:03:56] [SPEAKER_01]: A member of the two friends.
[00:03:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Ben's a great friend of ours, but he's not one of the two
[00:04:00] [SPEAKER_01]: friends.
[00:04:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Let's, let's just, you know, create a clear real grande
[00:04:03] [SPEAKER_01]: line here.
[00:04:03] [SPEAKER_01]: And I'm okay with that.
[00:04:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:04:04] [SPEAKER_01]: But Ben, Ben, I'm going to give you a spotlight here because
[00:04:07] [SPEAKER_01]: What's up?
[00:04:07] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know about David.
[00:04:09] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't have any updates, but you might have something to
[00:04:11] [SPEAKER_01]: report in a new segment.
[00:04:12] [SPEAKER_01]: We like to call.
[00:04:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Do do do do do do do do do do do do do do.
[00:04:16] [SPEAKER_03]: We're just doing this now.
[00:04:17] [SPEAKER_03]: The burger report.
[00:04:18] [SPEAKER_03]: The burger report.
[00:04:19] [SPEAKER_03]: The burger report.
[00:04:20] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm trying to think of eating, I did eat a burger with
[00:04:22] [SPEAKER_03]: past guest, Sonia Saraya.
[00:04:24] [SPEAKER_01]: Hey, that counts.
[00:04:25] [SPEAKER_03]: So we had a burger.
[00:04:27] [SPEAKER_03]: I had a burger at Mayfield.
[00:04:28] [SPEAKER_03]: She didn't have a burger.
[00:04:29] [SPEAKER_03]: She had a different item of food, but I had a
[00:04:31] [SPEAKER_01]: burger.
[00:04:32] [SPEAKER_01]: It was brunch.
[00:04:33] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean it's saying this doesn't qualify.
[00:04:35] [SPEAKER_01]: I believe the parameters of the burger report are
[00:04:37] [SPEAKER_01]: telling stories.
[00:04:38] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, did I say somebody's celebrity?
[00:04:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Eat a burger.
[00:04:40] [SPEAKER_01]: You have to watch a celebrity eat a burger.
[00:04:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Now I would count Sonia as a celebrity, but if she
[00:04:45] [SPEAKER_01]: wasn't eating a burger it sounds like you're
[00:04:46] [SPEAKER_01]: reporting on blank check host David Sims
[00:04:50] [SPEAKER_01]: eating a burger.
[00:04:51] [SPEAKER_01]: No.
[00:04:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Now if we went to get burgers together we could
[00:04:54] [SPEAKER_01]: report on each other.
[00:04:56] Okay.
[00:04:56] [SPEAKER_01]: I think that falls under the rules.
[00:04:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, no that's fair.
[00:04:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:05:00] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm trying to think if, I don't think there's
[00:05:03] [SPEAKER_01]: been any other burgers so.
[00:05:04] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't think I had a burger this week.
[00:05:05] [SPEAKER_01]: I gotta go back to a burger restaurant.
[00:05:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Now Ben of course used to work at the old
[00:05:09] [SPEAKER_01]: homestead.
[00:05:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, do you have an old burger story for us Ben?
[00:05:11] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[00:05:14] [SPEAKER_02]: They're all brothers in Kings of Leon or it's
[00:05:17] [SPEAKER_02]: like three brothers in my cousin.
[00:05:18] [SPEAKER_02]: Those bearded folk.
[00:05:19] [SPEAKER_02]: I don't remember which one it is.
[00:05:21] [SPEAKER_02]: It's the good looking one but they're also
[00:05:24] [SPEAKER_02]: all kind of good looking so it's hard to
[00:05:26] [SPEAKER_02]: actually know.
[00:05:26] [SPEAKER_02]: My high school girlfriend had a big crush on
[00:05:28] [SPEAKER_02]: that guy.
[00:05:29] [SPEAKER_02]: That's how long they've been around for.
[00:05:30] [SPEAKER_02]: They've been around.
[00:05:31] [SPEAKER_02]: So I don't recall let's just say it was
[00:05:33] [SPEAKER_02]: Caleb.
[00:05:34] [SPEAKER_02]: Okay.
[00:05:35] [SPEAKER_02]: I think Caleb is the number one.
[00:05:36] [SPEAKER_02]: He's the front man.
[00:05:37] [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
[00:05:38] [SPEAKER_02]: So you saw him?
[00:05:39] [SPEAKER_02]: He came in with his supermodel girlfriend.
[00:05:42] [SPEAKER_02]: Into the spotted pic.
[00:05:42] [SPEAKER_01]: I believe he's married to her now.
[00:05:44] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[00:05:44] [SPEAKER_01]: So this would be Caleb.
[00:05:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:05:46] [SPEAKER_01]: This was a little while back.
[00:05:47] [SPEAKER_02]: Really Aldridge is who he's married to.
[00:05:48] [SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
[00:05:49] [SPEAKER_02]: They're really lovely, gorgeous people.
[00:05:52] [SPEAKER_02]: They came in for brunch and they are
[00:05:54] [SPEAKER_02]: so nice and shatted me up and were like
[00:05:56] [SPEAKER_02]: asking me all kinds of questions about
[00:05:57] [SPEAKER_02]: comedy and stuff.
[00:05:59] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh my God.
[00:05:59] [SPEAKER_02]: And I was early on into me working
[00:06:01] [SPEAKER_02]: there and I was actually like.
[00:06:03] [SPEAKER_03]: You were like is this what all celebrities
[00:06:04] [SPEAKER_03]: are like?
[00:06:04] [SPEAKER_03]: Kind of.
[00:06:05] [SPEAKER_03]: They're just nice.
[00:06:06] [SPEAKER_02]: Like VIP where they were like super chill
[00:06:08] [SPEAKER_02]: and made eye contact with me and
[00:06:11] [SPEAKER_02]: you know asked me questions and
[00:06:12] [SPEAKER_02]: remembered my name so right.
[00:06:14] [SPEAKER_02]: They were lovely people.
[00:06:16] [SPEAKER_01]: I love the burger report.
[00:06:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Look at these nice things that come out
[00:06:19] [SPEAKER_01]: of the burger report.
[00:06:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:06:20] [SPEAKER_01]: Well I haven't eaten any burgers this
[00:06:21] [SPEAKER_01]: week.
[00:06:21] [SPEAKER_01]: I make a solemn vow to our listeners
[00:06:24] [SPEAKER_01]: that I will start eating as many
[00:06:25] [SPEAKER_01]: burgers as I can on a week per week
[00:06:27] [SPEAKER_01]: basis to you know just just
[00:06:29] [SPEAKER_01]: increase my likelihood of seeing a
[00:06:31] [SPEAKER_01]: celeb, a FAMO.
[00:06:32] [SPEAKER_02]: And I guess we should even put it
[00:06:34] [SPEAKER_02]: out to our listeners.
[00:06:35] [SPEAKER_02]: If you guys have burger reports.
[00:06:37] [SPEAKER_02]: Please send them in.
[00:06:38] [SPEAKER_01]: A 555 burger?
[00:06:40] [SPEAKER_01]: 555 burger which is Ben's cell phone
[00:06:42] [SPEAKER_03]: number.
[00:06:42] [SPEAKER_03]: That's our 24 hour hotline.
[00:06:44] [SPEAKER_03]: It's just completely coincidental that
[00:06:45] [SPEAKER_03]: his cell phone number has always
[00:06:46] [SPEAKER_03]: been 555 burger.
[00:06:48] [SPEAKER_01]: That's why they hired him at the
[00:06:48] [SPEAKER_01]: old homestead.
[00:06:49] [SPEAKER_01]: They were like this guy lives and
[00:06:51] [SPEAKER_01]: breathes burgers.
[00:06:52] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh boy.

[00:08:25] [SPEAKER_01]: Hey in retrospect we don't
[00:08:26] [SPEAKER_01]: really get this script he wrote.
[00:08:27] [SPEAKER_01]: He ships his new script around.
[00:08:30] [SPEAKER_01]: It's a hot item.
[00:08:32] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah I believe it was called
[00:08:33] [SPEAKER_01]: The Green Effect.
[00:08:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.
[00:08:34] [SPEAKER_03]: When he wrote this script.
[00:08:37] [SPEAKER_03]: A spec script.
[00:08:38] [SPEAKER_03]: He shopped it around,
[00:08:40] [SPEAKER_03]: he didn't get any offer he was
[00:08:41] [SPEAKER_03]: interested in so he rewrote it
[00:08:44] [SPEAKER_03]: and took it around again.
[00:08:46] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't know if you knew that.
[00:08:47] [SPEAKER_01]: I did know that and what I find
[00:08:48] [SPEAKER_01]: interesting is I'm trying to
[00:08:49] [SPEAKER_01]: remember what site it was.
[00:08:50] [SPEAKER_01]: It might have been Ain't It
[00:08:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Cool at the time.
[00:08:52] [SPEAKER_01]: I remember reading a review from
[00:08:54] [SPEAKER_01]: someone who had read The Green
[00:08:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Effect and said like,
[00:08:56] [SPEAKER_01]: This script just got passed by
[00:08:57] [SPEAKER_01]: all the major studios.
[00:08:58] [SPEAKER_01]: I think it's great.
[00:08:59] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what they're doing.
[00:09:00] [SPEAKER_01]: And then six months later it was
[00:09:02] [SPEAKER_01]: like new draft, new pass,
[00:09:03] [SPEAKER_01]: new title, Fox picked it up
[00:09:05] [SPEAKER_01]: and that movie was not great.
[00:09:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah but do we know, I mean,
[00:09:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Ain't It Cool?
[00:09:09] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
[00:09:09] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
[00:09:10] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know but I remember
[00:09:11] [SPEAKER_01]: reading his description of
[00:09:12] [SPEAKER_01]: The Green Effect and going
[00:09:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Ooh that's a cool idea for a
[00:09:15] [SPEAKER_01]: movie which if you hear it in
[00:09:16] [SPEAKER_01]: the abstract you go
[00:09:17] [SPEAKER_01]: that's a cool idea for a
[00:09:18] [SPEAKER_01]: movie.
[00:09:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Let's get out with it.
[00:09:19] [SPEAKER_01]: The idea for this movie is
[00:09:20] [SPEAKER_01]: the plants are making people
[00:09:22] [SPEAKER_01]: kill themselves.
[00:09:23] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah I mean but one other
[00:09:25] [SPEAKER_03]: thing we should mention.
[00:09:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.
[00:09:27] [SPEAKER_03]: This movie was produced by
[00:09:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Fox but half of its budget
[00:09:30] [SPEAKER_03]: was funded by an Indian film
[00:09:32] [SPEAKER_03]: company called UTV
[00:09:35] [SPEAKER_03]: and they handled Overseas
[00:09:36] [SPEAKER_03]: so I think Fox took it at like
[00:09:38] [SPEAKER_03]: pretty limited financial
[00:09:40] [SPEAKER_03]: risk.
[00:09:41] [SPEAKER_03]: Do you have the budget of this
[00:09:42] [SPEAKER_03]: film?
[00:09:43] [SPEAKER_03]: $48 million.
[00:09:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay, pretty trim for
[00:09:46] [SPEAKER_03]: M Night.
[00:09:46] [SPEAKER_03]: For M Night pretty trim
[00:09:47] [SPEAKER_03]: although not a lot happens in
[00:09:50] [SPEAKER_03]: this movie.
[00:09:51] [SPEAKER_03]: No.
[00:09:51] [SPEAKER_01]: What I'm saying not a lot
[00:09:52] [SPEAKER_01]: happens in Lady in the Water.
[00:09:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Don't even really need sets.
[00:09:54] [SPEAKER_01]: But Lady in the Water he
[00:09:55] [SPEAKER_03]: built the apartment.
[00:09:56] [SPEAKER_03]: No I understand that
[00:09:57] [SPEAKER_03]: Lady in the Water maybe he
[00:09:58] [SPEAKER_03]: could have cut some costs.
[00:09:59] [SPEAKER_03]: I get it.
[00:09:59] [SPEAKER_03]: I know what you're saying.
[00:10:00] [SPEAKER_03]: He is scaling back a little.
[00:10:02] [SPEAKER_01]: And Walberg is big not as big
[00:10:04] [SPEAKER_01]: as he is today maybe not
[00:10:05] [SPEAKER_01]: $20 million guy probably was
[00:10:06] [SPEAKER_01]: at least a 10.
[00:10:07] [SPEAKER_01]: A 10 guy at this point in
[00:10:08] [SPEAKER_01]: time.
[00:10:09] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know where's
[00:10:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Walberg at?
[00:10:11] [SPEAKER_01]: He's pretty famous.
[00:10:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Post Oscar nomination he gets
[00:10:14] [SPEAKER_01]: nominated in 2006 and this
[00:10:15] [SPEAKER_01]: is 2008.
[00:10:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Post Oscar nomination.
[00:10:18] [SPEAKER_01]: This is hot off of his
[00:10:19] [SPEAKER_01]: departed best supporting
[00:10:20] [SPEAKER_01]: actor nomination.
[00:10:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah I'm trying to think of
[00:10:23] [SPEAKER_03]: what else he had done right
[00:10:24] [SPEAKER_03]: around that time.
[00:10:25] [SPEAKER_01]: A shooter I think was the
[00:10:27] [SPEAKER_01]: first one I think was the
[00:10:27] [SPEAKER_01]: first one released after the
[00:10:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Oscar nomination.
[00:10:28] [SPEAKER_03]: I saw Shooter in Theater.
[00:10:30] [SPEAKER_03]: Shooter is one of the worst
[00:10:30] [SPEAKER_03]: films of the last 10 years.
[00:10:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Being made into a television
[00:10:34] [SPEAKER_01]: series now.
[00:10:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Very strange have you seen
[00:10:36] [SPEAKER_03]: Shooter?
[00:10:37] [SPEAKER_03]: No but the people who are
[00:10:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Danny Glover and I believe
[00:10:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Ned Beatty I forget who the
[00:10:42] [SPEAKER_01]: other villain is.
[00:10:43] [SPEAKER_01]: I believe Ned Beatty is in it.
[00:10:44] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah Danny Glover and
[00:10:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Ned Beatty just like have
[00:10:46] [SPEAKER_03]: drinks around a fire they're
[00:10:47] [SPEAKER_03]: the villains that are toasting
[00:10:48] [SPEAKER_03]: their successful evil enterprise
[00:10:50] [SPEAKER_03]: and they're like that
[00:10:53] [SPEAKER_03]: happens in that movie.
[00:10:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Kate Marrow.
[00:10:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Then they all got shot
[00:10:56] [SPEAKER_03]: with guns.
[00:10:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Kate Marrow plays his girlfriend
[00:10:57] [SPEAKER_01]: in that and I believe
[00:11:00] [SPEAKER_01]: just a year or two earlier she
[00:11:02] [SPEAKER_01]: played Heath Ledger's daughter.
[00:11:03] [SPEAKER_03]: She was one year ago she had
[00:11:05] [SPEAKER_03]: been a Heath Ledger's daughter
[00:11:06] [SPEAKER_03]: and broke back mountain.
[00:11:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
[00:11:08] [SPEAKER_03]: But remember old Heath Ledger
[00:11:10] [SPEAKER_03]: remember?
[00:11:11] [SPEAKER_03]: I know.
[00:11:11] [SPEAKER_03]: He's dead by the time she
[00:11:12] [SPEAKER_03]: shows up.
[00:11:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Do you know how old Kate
[00:11:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Marrow was when they filmed
[00:11:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Shooter?
[00:11:17] [SPEAKER_01]: 22.
[00:11:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah I believe so.
[00:11:19] [SPEAKER_01]: And Mark Wahlberg was late 30s.
[00:11:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay so he did not win the
[00:11:24] [SPEAKER_01]: Hamilton lottery.
[00:11:24] [SPEAKER_01]: F-Wag.
[00:11:25] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh you just checked it?
[00:11:27] [SPEAKER_01]: No I'm sorry.
[00:11:29] [SPEAKER_03]: Uh sorry.
[00:11:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Did I tell you my Hamilton story?
[00:11:32] [SPEAKER_03]: That you bought tickets for
[00:11:33] [SPEAKER_03]: your whole family but forgot
[00:11:35] [SPEAKER_03]: to buy one for yourself?
[00:11:36] [SPEAKER_03]: On my birthday.
[00:11:37] [SPEAKER_03]: You're like why did you do
[00:11:38] [SPEAKER_03]: that are you a fucking idiot
[00:11:39] [SPEAKER_01]: I could tell you have five
[00:11:40] [SPEAKER_01]: people in your family?
[00:11:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Well no that's you're
[00:11:43] [SPEAKER_01]: framing the story in a way
[00:11:44] [SPEAKER_01]: that makes me look stupid
[00:11:45] [SPEAKER_01]: rather than unlucky.
[00:11:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
[00:11:48] [SPEAKER_01]: Are you unlucky?
[00:11:49] [SPEAKER_01]: I thought I had five
[00:11:50] [SPEAKER_01]: tickets and end up only being
[00:11:51] [SPEAKER_01]: four.
[00:11:51] [SPEAKER_01]: I thought I was gonna have
[00:11:52] [SPEAKER_01]: four seats and one standing
[00:11:54] [SPEAKER_01]: room ticket but it was two
[00:11:55] [SPEAKER_01]: separate requests.
[00:11:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh I see.
[00:11:58] [SPEAKER_01]: So you were calling in a favor
[00:11:59] [SPEAKER_01]: to get these tickets?
[00:11:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Called in a big favor.

[00:12:11] [SPEAKER_01]: guy.
[00:12:11] [SPEAKER_01]: Can he get me a ticket?

[00:13:04] [SPEAKER_01]: my birthday.
[00:13:05] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah I know and then you
[00:13:06] [SPEAKER_03]: texted me and Ben being

[00:13:09] [SPEAKER_03]: birthday drinks like on the

[00:13:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep.
[00:13:13] [SPEAKER_01]: We didn't come or I didn't
[00:13:14] [SPEAKER_01]: come maybe Ben came.
[00:13:15] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh Ben came.
[00:13:17] [SPEAKER_01]: That's why Ben got tickets
[00:13:17] [SPEAKER_01]: for Hamilton.
[00:13:18] [SPEAKER_01]: That's our thing I left out
[00:13:19] [SPEAKER_01]: anyone who showed up to the
[00:13:20] [SPEAKER_01]: bar got a ticket to Hamilton.
[00:13:21] [SPEAKER_03]: He was giving him just out
[00:13:22] [SPEAKER_03]: there.
[00:13:23] [SPEAKER_03]: I was a little busy because
[00:13:24] [SPEAKER_03]: you know it was like the day
[00:13:25] [SPEAKER_03]: anyway we are off.
[00:13:26] [SPEAKER_03]: I texted you like two hours
[00:13:26] [SPEAKER_01]: before yeah I didn't get
[00:13:28] [SPEAKER_01]: standing room for that night
[00:13:29] [SPEAKER_01]: but he gave me 45 standing
[00:13:30] [SPEAKER_01]: room tickets for the next
[00:13:31] [SPEAKER_01]: two weeks so I handed one to
[00:13:32] [SPEAKER_01]: everyone who showed up to
[00:13:34] [SPEAKER_01]: the bar on my birthday.
[00:13:36] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh boy.
[00:13:37] [SPEAKER_01]: Ben right now is fanning
[00:13:39] [SPEAKER_01]: himself in this
[00:13:39] [SPEAKER_01]: unventilated recording studio
[00:13:41] [SPEAKER_01]: really warming with Hamilton
[00:13:42] [SPEAKER_01]: ticks.
[00:13:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah the box office this
[00:13:45] [SPEAKER_01]: film comes out.
[00:13:45] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh you want to know
[00:13:46] [SPEAKER_01]: what's going on in the box.
[00:13:47] [SPEAKER_01]: 2008 right I believe it opens
[00:13:49] [SPEAKER_01]: to.
[00:13:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah so we should note that
[00:13:51] [SPEAKER_03]: his previous two films the
[00:13:53] [SPEAKER_03]: village had done well but
[00:13:54] [SPEAKER_03]: maybe a little less well.
[00:13:56] [SPEAKER_01]: And then late in the water
[00:13:57] [SPEAKER_01]: was a bomb.
[00:13:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Big bomb.
[00:13:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Opens at 17 ended up I
[00:14:01] [SPEAKER_01]: believe at 41.
[00:14:02] [SPEAKER_01]: Now the big marketing hook to
[00:14:03] [SPEAKER_01]: this film was that M
[00:14:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Night's going R.
[00:14:06] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah so I mean let's
[00:14:07] [SPEAKER_03]: no let's yeah let's
[00:14:08] [SPEAKER_03]: before we get to the box
[00:14:08] [SPEAKER_03]: office right he'd made
[00:14:10] [SPEAKER_03]: late in the water.
[00:14:12] [SPEAKER_03]: It veered away from
[00:14:13] [SPEAKER_03]: twists it veered away
[00:14:14] [SPEAKER_03]: from like tension right
[00:14:16] [SPEAKER_03]: from suspense.
[00:14:18] [SPEAKER_03]: And he made kind of a
[00:14:19] [SPEAKER_03]: family fable was kind of a
[00:14:20] [SPEAKER_03]: really bad family movie
[00:14:21] [SPEAKER_03]: because I still had like
[00:14:23] [SPEAKER_03]: violence.
[00:14:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah a lot.
[00:14:25] [SPEAKER_03]: Murder.
[00:14:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah but kids hate Bob
[00:14:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Ballad and so there was
[00:14:27] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah I mean anyway so yeah
[00:14:30] [SPEAKER_03]: so this was him clearly
[00:14:31] [SPEAKER_03]: and might always been
[00:14:32] [SPEAKER_03]: a really reactive guy.
[00:14:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Yep he's really
[00:14:34] [SPEAKER_03]: concerned about like I have
[00:14:36] [SPEAKER_03]: to you know like success
[00:14:37] [SPEAKER_03]: really is important to him.
[00:14:39] [SPEAKER_01]: I think people talk about
[00:14:40] [SPEAKER_01]: like the one for me one
[00:14:42] [SPEAKER_01]: for them kind of equation
[00:14:43] [SPEAKER_01]: that some directors have
[00:14:44] [SPEAKER_01]: words like I do a studio
[00:14:45] [SPEAKER_01]: film and then I get the
[00:14:46] [SPEAKER_01]: cash to make one of mine.
[00:14:48] [SPEAKER_01]: I think M Night does one
[00:14:49] [SPEAKER_01]: for me and then please
[00:14:51] [SPEAKER_01]: please please like me again.
[00:14:52] [SPEAKER_01]: It's I've been one for them
[00:14:54] [SPEAKER_01]: right right he gets in this
[00:14:55] [SPEAKER_01]: thing where he like does what
[00:14:56] [SPEAKER_01]: he thinks people wants to
[00:14:57] [SPEAKER_01]: see.
[00:14:58] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah and so what's he
[00:14:59] [SPEAKER_03]: thinking here is you know
[00:15:01] [SPEAKER_03]: what I've never done is
[00:15:02] [SPEAKER_03]: like a more violent film
[00:15:03] [SPEAKER_03]: like an R rated film.
[00:15:05] [SPEAKER_03]: It's not like he's
[00:15:06] [SPEAKER_03]: saying like I know what
[00:15:07] [SPEAKER_03]: you guys want is the
[00:15:08] [SPEAKER_03]: sex like you know it's
[00:15:09] [SPEAKER_03]: only violence.
[00:15:11] [SPEAKER_01]: Right so horror movies
[00:15:12] [SPEAKER_01]: most popular horror films
[00:15:13] [SPEAKER_01]: are rated R I make horror
[00:15:14] [SPEAKER_01]: films all my horror films
[00:15:15] [SPEAKER_01]: in PG 13.
[00:15:16] [SPEAKER_01]: What if I added this to the
[00:15:17] [SPEAKER_03]: equation that the sixth sense
[00:15:18] [SPEAKER_03]: is PG 13 is pretty
[00:15:21] [SPEAKER_03]: crazy.
[00:15:21] [SPEAKER_03]: That should be an R rated
[00:15:23] [SPEAKER_03]: film blood in England
[00:15:24] [SPEAKER_03]: that film was rated 15 which
[00:15:26] [SPEAKER_03]: is rating usually afforded
[00:15:28] [SPEAKER_03]: to an R sure film.
[00:15:30] [SPEAKER_03]: But then you know I'm
[00:15:31] [SPEAKER_03]: breakable in signs the
[00:15:32] [SPEAKER_03]: violence is mostly implied
[00:15:33] [SPEAKER_03]: pretty chase pretty chase
[00:15:35] [SPEAKER_03]: films and then and the
[00:15:36] [SPEAKER_03]: same with the village.
[00:15:37] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah so you know so yeah he
[00:15:38] [SPEAKER_03]: had always been kind of
[00:15:39] [SPEAKER_03]: like a tell don't show you
[00:15:41] [SPEAKER_03]: know yeah I don't know how
[00:15:43] [SPEAKER_03]: you say like he didn't yeah.
[00:15:44] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah I mean the gory
[00:15:46] [SPEAKER_01]: thing and retrospect it's
[00:15:47] [SPEAKER_01]: like R rated and my shaman
[00:15:49] [SPEAKER_01]: doesn't make that much sense
[00:15:50] [SPEAKER_01]: no but at the time everyone
[00:15:51] [SPEAKER_01]: was like all right it and
[00:15:52] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm sure of terror.
[00:15:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah great.
[00:15:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Oh yeah but like I think
[00:15:57] [SPEAKER_03]: I think you're correct like
[00:15:58] [SPEAKER_03]: that was a mistake.
[00:16:00] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes the idea that
[00:16:01] [SPEAKER_03]: violence was the answer.
[00:16:03] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah violence is never the
[00:16:05] [SPEAKER_03]: answer certainly wasn't here.
[00:16:07] [SPEAKER_03]: No so I guess we'll
[00:16:08] [SPEAKER_03]: we can talk about the box
[00:16:09] [SPEAKER_03]: office process before we get
[00:16:10] [SPEAKER_03]: into the movie.
[00:16:11] [SPEAKER_01]: Why so I talked advertising
[00:16:12] [SPEAKER_01]: campaigns so I read the
[00:16:13] [SPEAKER_01]: time I was a poster super
[00:16:14] [SPEAKER_01]: rated it was like in red
[00:16:16] [SPEAKER_01]: text when they put the R
[00:16:18] [SPEAKER_01]: like the rating box was
[00:16:19] [SPEAKER_01]: bright red so the text on
[00:16:21] [SPEAKER_01]: the poster was white they
[00:16:22] [SPEAKER_01]: wanted the R to really stick
[00:16:23] [SPEAKER_01]: out.
[00:16:23] [SPEAKER_03]: The poster in typical
[00:16:24] [SPEAKER_03]: Shyamalan fashion no movie
[00:16:26] [SPEAKER_03]: stars like you know just his
[00:16:27] [SPEAKER_01]: face is invisible but they do
[00:16:28] [SPEAKER_01]: have Walberg's name above
[00:16:29] [SPEAKER_01]: the title they do for the
[00:16:30] [SPEAKER_01]: first time in a while but
[00:16:31] [SPEAKER_01]: M. Night's name is the top
[00:16:33] [SPEAKER_01]: of the poster.
[00:16:34] [SPEAKER_02]: They think that consumers
[00:16:36] [SPEAKER_02]: are going to give a shit
[00:16:37] [SPEAKER_02]: that it's the first R
[00:16:38] [SPEAKER_02]: rated they did I think it
[00:16:40] [SPEAKER_02]: worked I don't really work
[00:16:41] [SPEAKER_02]: I think the backlash was
[00:16:42] [SPEAKER_01]: pretty swift but opening
[00:16:43] [SPEAKER_01]: weekend for the film I believe
[00:16:45] [SPEAKER_01]: was like thirty seven is
[00:16:47] [SPEAKER_01]: that correct thirty million
[00:16:48] [SPEAKER_01]: not great.
[00:16:50] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay it opened number three
[00:16:52] [SPEAKER_01]: behind the incredible Hulk
[00:16:54] [SPEAKER_01]: correct was number one
[00:16:55] [SPEAKER_03]: opening weekend that's
[00:16:56] [SPEAKER_01]: correct I saw these two
[00:16:57] [SPEAKER_01]: movies back to back opening
[00:16:58] [SPEAKER_01]: night the MC twenty five.
[00:17:00] [SPEAKER_03]: I saw the incredible Hulk
[00:17:01] [SPEAKER_03]: at Union Square and the
[00:17:03] [SPEAKER_03]: air conditioning broke and I
[00:17:05] [SPEAKER_03]: did not see the happening I
[00:17:06] [SPEAKER_03]: was not interested.
[00:17:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Okay number two at the
[00:17:08] [SPEAKER_03]: box office so it's 2008
[00:17:10] [SPEAKER_03]: in my opinion a better film
[00:17:12] [SPEAKER_03]: than both both of the others
[00:17:13] [SPEAKER_01]: Kung Fu Panda correct really
[00:17:15] [SPEAKER_01]: they nail it okay very nice
[00:17:17] [SPEAKER_03]: movie number four one of my
[00:17:18] [SPEAKER_03]: guess one of my favorite
[00:17:20] [SPEAKER_03]: comedies by this actor.
[00:17:23] [SPEAKER_01]: 2008 it's one of your
[00:17:24] [SPEAKER_01]: favorite comedies by this
[00:17:26] [SPEAKER_01]: actor you don't mess with
[00:17:27] [SPEAKER_03]: the zoo hand correct really
[00:17:28] [SPEAKER_03]: yes are you kidding yes
[00:17:30] [SPEAKER_03]: possibly my favorite Adam
[00:17:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Sandler and I agree with
[00:17:32] [SPEAKER_03]: that as well yeah okay
[00:17:34] [SPEAKER_03]: number five a film that
[00:17:36] [SPEAKER_03]: you're not going to guess
[00:17:37] [SPEAKER_03]: from this unless you remember
[00:17:38] [SPEAKER_03]: this story I saw very soon
[00:17:40] [SPEAKER_03]: after moving to New York because
[00:17:41] [SPEAKER_03]: I moved to New York in 2008 yeah
[00:17:42] [SPEAKER_03]: and I obviously wanted to see
[00:17:44] [SPEAKER_03]: this film I bought a ticket
[00:17:45] [SPEAKER_03]: and it was a packed theater and
[00:17:47] [SPEAKER_03]: a man came in set next to me
[00:17:49] [SPEAKER_03]: before the movie started he
[00:17:50] [SPEAKER_03]: pulled his hat over his head
[00:17:51] [SPEAKER_03]: fell asleep slept through the
[00:17:54] [SPEAKER_03]: whole long movie.
[00:17:56] [SPEAKER_01]: And yeah Jones and the king
[00:17:57] [SPEAKER_01]: of the crystal skull.
[00:17:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Bingo!
[00:17:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Really I nailed all five
[00:18:00] [SPEAKER_01]: you got all five that's
[00:18:01] [SPEAKER_01]: amazing that's unprecedented
[00:18:02] [SPEAKER_01]: I've gotten them all wrong
[00:18:03] [SPEAKER_01]: every other week yeah you
[00:18:04] [SPEAKER_01]: should get them wrong no I
[00:18:05] [SPEAKER_01]: was just thinking about the
[00:18:06] [SPEAKER_01]: time they'll play so I
[00:18:07] [SPEAKER_01]: was placing myself in that
[00:18:08] [SPEAKER_01]: moment oh wait and I remember
[00:18:09] [SPEAKER_01]: I remember seeing kung fu panda
[00:18:12] [SPEAKER_01]: I thought kung fu panda was
[00:18:13] [SPEAKER_01]: going to bomb the movie was
[00:18:14] [SPEAKER_01]: better than they advertised as
[00:18:16] [SPEAKER_01]: being because that is true
[00:18:17] [SPEAKER_01]: because they advertise just
[00:18:18] [SPEAKER_01]: like Jack Black fat panda
[00:18:20] [SPEAKER_01]: right that was it right yeah
[00:18:21] [SPEAKER_01]: it's like pretty well done
[00:18:23] [SPEAKER_03]: that's a good movie yeah
[00:18:25] [SPEAKER_01]: but the I remember seeing
[00:18:27] [SPEAKER_01]: an ad that was just like hey
[00:18:30] [SPEAKER_01]: remember turn off your cell
[00:18:31] [SPEAKER_01]: phones and then he like farted
[00:18:33] [SPEAKER_01]: and then he fucked a lady
[00:18:34] [SPEAKER_01]: with his belly or whatever fat
[00:18:35] [SPEAKER_01]: thing he did you know he stuck
[00:18:38] [SPEAKER_01]: his belly in a pussy I swear to
[00:18:39] [SPEAKER_01]: got it happen but it was like
[00:18:40] [SPEAKER_01]: an AMC like turn off your cell
[00:18:42] [SPEAKER_03]: phone AMC was like here's what
[00:18:43] [SPEAKER_01]: we want yeah yeah um hey dream
[00:18:46] [SPEAKER_01]: works yeah um but I saw that
[00:18:48] [SPEAKER_01]: opening night of the happening
[00:18:50] [SPEAKER_01]: crystal skull oh you saw
[00:18:52] [SPEAKER_01]: crystal so kung fu panda was
[00:18:53] [SPEAKER_01]: about to come out yeah crystal
[00:18:55] [SPEAKER_01]: skull had been out for four
[00:18:56] [SPEAKER_01]: weeks at this right and I
[00:18:58] [SPEAKER_01]: saw that opening that crystal
[00:18:58] [SPEAKER_01]: skull and everyone lost it
[00:19:00] [SPEAKER_01]: and I turned to my friend
[00:19:00] [SPEAKER_01]: I went I guess kung fu panda
[00:19:02] [SPEAKER_01]: is going to be the hit and
[00:19:03] [SPEAKER_01]: then when I saw it I was
[00:19:04] [SPEAKER_03]: like okay cool it's good well
[00:19:06] [SPEAKER_03]: the thing about kung fu panda
[00:19:07] [SPEAKER_03]: is that it's actually like a
[00:19:08] [SPEAKER_03]: weirdly like small scale yeah
[00:19:11] [SPEAKER_03]: clever film like I don't know
[00:19:13] [SPEAKER_03]: it's like an origin movie that
[00:19:14] [SPEAKER_03]: works I could talk about kung
[00:19:16] [SPEAKER_03]: fu panda it's beautiful I'll
[00:19:17] [SPEAKER_01]: tell you the other reason I
[00:19:18] [SPEAKER_01]: think I did so well and that's
[00:19:19] [SPEAKER_01]: I got to give credit where
[00:19:20] [SPEAKER_01]: credit's due my good friend
[00:19:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Steven Kelly who went to
[00:19:24] [SPEAKER_01]: school in Scotland he was
[00:19:26] [SPEAKER_01]: back that summer I had seen
[00:19:28] [SPEAKER_01]: him in a while so I saw four
[00:19:29] [SPEAKER_01]: of those five films with
[00:19:30] [SPEAKER_01]: him so I remember that chunk
[00:19:31] [SPEAKER_01]: of like he was just back home
[00:19:33] [SPEAKER_01]: and we were like let's go see
[00:19:34] [SPEAKER_01]: a lot of movies so we went to
[00:19:35] [SPEAKER_01]: see zoan kung fu panda we did
[00:19:38] [SPEAKER_01]: that as double feature and then
[00:19:39] [SPEAKER_01]: we did a different night Hulk
[00:19:40] [SPEAKER_01]: and happening as a double
[00:19:41] [SPEAKER_01]: feature shout out to Steak
[00:19:44] [SPEAKER_03]: some of the other movies that
[00:19:45] [SPEAKER_03]: year you got sex in the city
[00:19:46] [SPEAKER_03]: which was huge hit 70 Mill
[00:19:49] [SPEAKER_03]: opening Iron Man obviously
[00:19:50] [SPEAKER_03]: which had launched the Marvel
[00:19:52] [SPEAKER_03]: universe having controls are
[00:19:53] [SPEAKER_03]: live isn't it Jeff Bridges
[00:19:56] [SPEAKER_03]: The Strangers one of the
[00:19:58] [SPEAKER_03]: best horror movies of the
[00:19:59] [SPEAKER_03]: last ten years great movie
[00:20:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Wally comes out a couple
[00:20:01] [SPEAKER_01]: weeks later which is maybe
[00:20:03] [SPEAKER_01]: my favorite movie Wally's coming
[00:20:03] [SPEAKER_01]: out in a decade.
[00:20:05] [SPEAKER_03]: A decent movie.
[00:20:07] [SPEAKER_03]: Chronicles of Narnia Prince
[00:20:08] [SPEAKER_03]: Caspian which I believe is the
[00:20:10] [SPEAKER_03]: second Narnia film.
[00:20:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Real bummer that one.
[00:20:13] [SPEAKER_03]: What happens in Vegas baby mama
[00:20:17] [SPEAKER_03]: and touching Tom McCarthy drama
[00:20:20] [SPEAKER_03]: The Visitor.
[00:20:21] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh I don't like The Visitor.
[00:20:23] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah it's okay.
[00:20:24] [SPEAKER_01]: I'll say it's my least favorite
[00:20:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Tom McCarthy film.
[00:20:27] [SPEAKER_03]: That's a crazy thing to say.
[00:20:29] [SPEAKER_01]: And I've seen Le Cobbler.
[00:20:31] [SPEAKER_03]: Anyway back to the happening.
[00:20:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:20:35] [SPEAKER_03]: So the happening it's R rated.
[00:20:38] [SPEAKER_03]: R.
[00:20:39] [SPEAKER_03]: It's got Mark Wahlberg who is a
[00:20:41] [SPEAKER_03]: movie star.
[00:20:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Wahlberg.
[00:20:42] [SPEAKER_03]: Not like a top tier movie star
[00:20:44] [SPEAKER_03]: but he's a movie star.
[00:20:45] [SPEAKER_01]: He was in the transition period
[00:20:46] [SPEAKER_01]: right now because he had sort
[00:20:48] [SPEAKER_01]: of been like a B level guy.
[00:20:50] [SPEAKER_01]: Right.
[00:20:50] [SPEAKER_01]: He had been a B level guy who
[00:20:51] [SPEAKER_01]: made movies like Rockstar.
[00:20:52] [SPEAKER_01]: This is like pre-Ted.
[00:20:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
[00:20:54] [SPEAKER_01]: This is pre-Ted.
[00:20:55] [SPEAKER_01]: Ted pushed him into the
[00:20:56] [SPEAKER_01]: stratosphere.
[00:20:57] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah he was a guy who made
[00:20:59] [SPEAKER_03]: R rated action movies that grossed
[00:21:01] [SPEAKER_03]: fine like Max Payne or Shooter
[00:21:04] [SPEAKER_03]: or Two Guns.
[00:21:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Wahlberg is going to open to 15
[00:21:08] [SPEAKER_03]: and he's going to end up between
[00:21:09] [SPEAKER_03]: like 40 and 50.
[00:21:10] [SPEAKER_03]: He was a reliable but not
[00:21:12] [SPEAKER_03]: particularly exciting box office
[00:21:14] [SPEAKER_03]: bet.
[00:21:14] [SPEAKER_01]: And I think Planet of the Apes
[00:21:15] [SPEAKER_01]: had been his shot to be like
[00:21:16] [SPEAKER_01]: a huge leading man.
[00:21:17] [SPEAKER_01]: That movie bombed.
[00:21:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Everyone hated it.
[00:21:19] [SPEAKER_01]: Everyone hated it.
[00:21:20] [SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
[00:21:21] [SPEAKER_03]: It was he.
[00:21:22] [SPEAKER_03]: That movie didn't bomb at all.
[00:21:23] [SPEAKER_03]: It was like a massive success.
[00:21:25] [SPEAKER_03]: I believe that movie is the
[00:21:26] [SPEAKER_01]: most successful movie to not
[00:21:28] [SPEAKER_01]: get a sequel.
[00:21:29] [SPEAKER_01]: I read some stat like that.
[00:21:31] [SPEAKER_01]: That's probably in terms of just
[00:21:33] [SPEAKER_01]: raw gross numbers.
[00:21:34] [SPEAKER_01]: Because then they just lay the
[00:21:36] [SPEAKER_01]: franchise dormant for 10 years
[00:21:37] [SPEAKER_01]: and then reboot it perfectly.
[00:21:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Anyway, Wahlberg is in this weird
[00:21:43] [SPEAKER_01]: period and people are kind of
[00:21:45] [SPEAKER_01]: like he's not a good actor but
[00:21:46] [SPEAKER_01]: he's kind of fun.
[00:21:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Wahlberg movies are like trashy,
[00:21:49] [SPEAKER_01]: campy like for what they are.
[00:21:50] [SPEAKER_01]: They mix the departed and he
[00:21:52] [SPEAKER_01]: fucking pops in this cast.
[00:21:53] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean he's wonderful in the
[00:21:55] [SPEAKER_01]: department.
[00:21:55] [SPEAKER_03]: But in this murderers row you
[00:21:57] [SPEAKER_03]: know.
[00:21:57] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean he got an Oscar nomination
[00:21:59] [SPEAKER_03]: over Jack Nicholson remains one
[00:22:00] [SPEAKER_03]: of the craziest Oscar surprises
[00:22:02] [SPEAKER_03]: like of recent memory.
[00:22:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Well and here's the crazy thing
[00:22:05] [SPEAKER_01]: like as still happens to this day
[00:22:07] [SPEAKER_01]: he deserved it.
[00:22:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, 100%.
[00:22:09] [SPEAKER_01]: But the supporting categories
[00:22:11] [SPEAKER_01]: can often be a little frotty
[00:22:12] [SPEAKER_01]: because it's like oh whoever
[00:22:14] [SPEAKER_01]: when supporting actress is
[00:22:15] [SPEAKER_01]: usually the lead female of that
[00:22:17] [SPEAKER_01]: movie.
[00:22:18] [SPEAKER_01]: In a movie where the lead
[00:22:19] [SPEAKER_01]: character number one is a man
[00:22:20] [SPEAKER_01]: they give the second lead who
[00:22:22] [SPEAKER_01]: is female supporting actress.
[00:22:23] [SPEAKER_01]: We're going down a crazy garden
[00:22:24] [SPEAKER_01]: path.
[00:22:24] [SPEAKER_01]: What are you talking about?
[00:22:25] [SPEAKER_01]: And supporting actor is usually
[00:22:26] [SPEAKER_01]: the second lead of the movie.
[00:22:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh sure.
[00:22:27] [SPEAKER_01]: The villain or whatever it is.
[00:22:28] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh sure, Walberg is a genuine
[00:22:29] [SPEAKER_01]: supporting character.
[00:22:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah he's probably got 15
[00:22:31] [SPEAKER_01]: minutes of screen time in the
[00:22:32] [SPEAKER_01]: movie but every time he shows
[00:22:34] [SPEAKER_01]: up you're just like Jesus Christ
[00:22:35] [SPEAKER_01]: this fucking guy is so good
[00:22:36] [SPEAKER_01]: and he's not playing a cancer
[00:22:38] [SPEAKER_01]: patient.
[00:22:38] [SPEAKER_01]: No but do you have any big
[00:22:39] [SPEAKER_01]: emotional beef?
[00:22:40] [SPEAKER_03]: The other thing is that he was
[00:22:41] [SPEAKER_03]: so good in that movie that
[00:22:42] [SPEAKER_03]: they immediately started being
[00:22:44] [SPEAKER_03]: like let's make a departed to
[00:22:45] [SPEAKER_03]: about Walberg's character.
[00:22:46] [SPEAKER_03]: Remember that was like a
[00:22:47] [SPEAKER_03]: literal because like everybody
[00:22:48] [SPEAKER_03]: dies in the departed.
[00:22:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:22:50] [SPEAKER_03]: But they were like you know
[00:22:51] [SPEAKER_03]: what departed to Walberg.
[00:22:53] [SPEAKER_03]: But I'll tell you something
[00:22:53] [SPEAKER_03]: inside school.
[00:22:54] [SPEAKER_03]: They're talking about it
[00:22:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Benny.
[00:22:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Preposterous.
[00:22:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Well it didn't happen.
[00:22:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Inside school.
[00:22:59] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean same way he keeps saying
[00:23:00] [SPEAKER_03]: he's going to make a fighter
[00:23:00] [SPEAKER_03]: too but anyway go on.
[00:23:02] [SPEAKER_01]: I worked on television series
[00:23:03] [SPEAKER_01]: called Vinyl that is currently
[00:23:04] [SPEAKER_01]: airing Sunday nights on HBM.
[00:23:05] [SPEAKER_01]: Sure.
[00:23:06] [SPEAKER_03]: Created by Martin Scorsesezny.
[00:23:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Who directed the pilot episode.
[00:23:09] [SPEAKER_02]: And then there's the guy who
[00:23:10] [SPEAKER_02]: was in the band.
[00:23:11] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh Mickey.
[00:23:12] [SPEAKER_02]: Oh yeah.
[00:23:12] [SPEAKER_02]: Jager.
[00:23:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Did you meet Mick Jagger?
[00:23:15] [SPEAKER_01]: I didn't.
[00:23:16] [SPEAKER_01]: But I did have a couple talks
[00:23:17] [SPEAKER_01]: with good old Marty S.
[00:23:19] [SPEAKER_01]: And he was talking to me
[00:23:20] [SPEAKER_01]: about how Warner Brothers
[00:23:22] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't care who it's
[00:23:23] [SPEAKER_01]: I'll say this whatever.
[00:23:23] [SPEAKER_01]: He said like Warner Brothers
[00:23:25] [SPEAKER_01]: really didn't like the departing.
[00:23:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Well I could see that it was
[00:23:28] [SPEAKER_01]: I mean but it was a huge hit
[00:23:29] [SPEAKER_01]: but like sure it's a weird movie
[00:23:31] [SPEAKER_01]: But they like screened it
[00:23:32] [SPEAKER_01]: and they were like
[00:23:32] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what we're going to do
[00:23:33] [SPEAKER_01]: about this thing.
[00:23:34] [SPEAKER_01]: And he was like he said
[00:23:35] [SPEAKER_01]: that he like felt proud of it
[00:23:36] [SPEAKER_01]: like he thought it was good
[00:23:37] [SPEAKER_01]: and Warner Brothers was like
[00:23:38] [SPEAKER_01]: well what are you going to do
[00:23:39] [SPEAKER_01]: you like I don't know
[00:23:40] [SPEAKER_01]: it's like a bummer all the heroes
[00:23:41] [SPEAKER_01]: die.
[00:23:42] [SPEAKER_01]: The departed is a crazy movie.
[00:23:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Yes.
[00:23:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Not only in that it's quite
[00:23:45] [SPEAKER_03]: tragic for its characters.
[00:23:47] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:23:47] [SPEAKER_03]: But like it jumps around
[00:23:49] [SPEAKER_03]: in weird ways.
[00:23:50] [SPEAKER_03]: It's like really jarring.
[00:23:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:23:51] [SPEAKER_03]: Whole plot developments happened
[00:23:52] [SPEAKER_03]: like and are not mentioned.
[00:23:55] [SPEAKER_01]: It's so good.
[00:23:56] [SPEAKER_01]: It's very texture focused
[00:23:57] [SPEAKER_01]: you know in a way like
[00:23:58] [SPEAKER_01]: not sort of plot focused.
[00:24:00] [SPEAKER_01]: It is a crazy movie considering
[00:24:02] [SPEAKER_03]: the movie it is a remake of
[00:24:03] [SPEAKER_03]: which had only come out
[00:24:04] [SPEAKER_03]: like five years before.
[00:24:05] [SPEAKER_01]: It was pretty straight down
[00:24:06] [SPEAKER_01]: the middle.
[00:24:06] [SPEAKER_03]: He's a very controlled
[00:24:08] [SPEAKER_03]: excellent thriller
[00:24:09] [SPEAKER_01]: not like that movie at all.
[00:24:11] [SPEAKER_01]: And I saw other people
[00:24:12] [SPEAKER_01]: worked on it who said
[00:24:13] [SPEAKER_01]: at the time they were like
[00:24:14] [SPEAKER_01]: there's no way this movie
[00:24:14] [SPEAKER_01]: is going to cut together.
[00:24:15] [SPEAKER_01]: It's like insanity.
[00:24:17] [SPEAKER_01]: But he said like yeah
[00:24:19] [SPEAKER_01]: Warner Brothers never liked
[00:24:19] [SPEAKER_01]: the movie and I was like
[00:24:20] [SPEAKER_01]: well I'm sure that changed
[00:24:21] [SPEAKER_01]: after it came out
[00:24:22] [SPEAKER_01]: and made a ton of money
[00:24:23] [SPEAKER_01]: in one best picture
[00:24:23] [SPEAKER_01]: and he was like nope.
[00:24:25] [SPEAKER_01]: Nope they still were just like
[00:24:26] [SPEAKER_01]: yeah I don't get it.
[00:24:28] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm surprised that people
[00:24:28] [SPEAKER_01]: liked it that much.
[00:24:30] [SPEAKER_01]: And then they were like
[00:24:30] [SPEAKER_01]: someone else in the group
[00:24:31] [SPEAKER_01]: was like I'm surprised
[00:24:32] [SPEAKER_01]: you never tried to make a sequel
[00:24:33] [SPEAKER_01]: and he was like oh he said
[00:24:34] [SPEAKER_01]: the reason they didn't like it
[00:24:35] [SPEAKER_01]: after the fact
[00:24:36] [SPEAKER_01]: after it did well
[00:24:37] [SPEAKER_01]: was they were like
[00:24:38] [SPEAKER_01]: well but it's no good to us
[00:24:39] [SPEAKER_01]: because it can't make a sequel
[00:24:40] [SPEAKER_01]: because all the characters died.
[00:24:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Sure.
[00:24:42] [SPEAKER_01]: So they were like unhappy
[00:24:43] [SPEAKER_01]: when they saw it
[00:24:43] [SPEAKER_01]: and then when it did well
[00:24:44] [SPEAKER_01]: they were like yeah
[00:24:45] [SPEAKER_01]: but now we can't make another one.
[00:24:46] [SPEAKER_01]: Get over it Warner Brothers.
[00:24:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Agreed.
[00:24:48] [SPEAKER_01]: But so he said our solution
[00:24:50] [SPEAKER_01]: was well let's write a movie
[00:24:51] [SPEAKER_01]: about Wahlberg.
[00:24:52] [SPEAKER_01]: He just got the Oscar nomination.
[00:24:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah it's still a Wahlberg movie.
[00:24:54] [SPEAKER_01]: Let's do a Wahlberg movie
[00:24:55] [SPEAKER_01]: it'll be him going to Washington
[00:24:56] [SPEAKER_01]: and trying to take over
[00:24:57] [SPEAKER_01]: the corruption in Washington.
[00:24:58] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[00:24:59] [SPEAKER_01]: It goes up the ranks.
[00:25:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
[00:25:01] [SPEAKER_01]: And he was like we wrote that
[00:25:02] [SPEAKER_01]: script and we brought
[00:25:03] [SPEAKER_01]: to Warner Brothers
[00:25:03] [SPEAKER_01]: and they were like
[00:25:04] [SPEAKER_01]: you can't put a movie
[00:25:06] [SPEAKER_01]: on Wahlberg's shoulder.
[00:25:08] [SPEAKER_01]: Oh yeah that's never happened.
[00:25:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah they were like
[00:25:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Wahlberg can't hear it.
[00:25:11] [SPEAKER_03]: Well I mean if nothing else
[00:25:12] [SPEAKER_03]: this proves something
[00:25:13] [SPEAKER_03]: we should probably talk about
[00:25:14] [SPEAKER_03]: more on this part
[00:25:14] [SPEAKER_03]: because studios are really stupid.
[00:25:16] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah studios are stupid.
[00:25:17] [SPEAKER_01]: Studios are dumb.
[00:25:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Now let's get on to Mark Wahlberg
[00:25:19] [SPEAKER_01]: because I think this is an important guy
[00:25:21] [SPEAKER_01]: to put front and center
[00:25:21] [SPEAKER_01]: in our talk of the happening right.
[00:25:24] [SPEAKER_01]: He's getting hot at this moment.
[00:25:25] [SPEAKER_01]: He'd made the party
[00:25:26] [SPEAKER_01]: got the Oscar nomination
[00:25:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Warner Brothers thought he wasn't
[00:25:28] [SPEAKER_01]: big enough to carry the film
[00:25:29] [SPEAKER_01]: but he's starting to do
[00:25:30] [SPEAKER_01]: like this is now he's getting
[00:25:31] [SPEAKER_01]: genre but a little more
[00:25:32] [SPEAKER_01]: high-brow genre
[00:25:33] [SPEAKER_01]: and within like six or seven years
[00:25:35] [SPEAKER_01]: he's reinvent himself
[00:25:36] [SPEAKER_01]: as one of our
[00:25:36] [SPEAKER_01]: absolute top movie stars.
[00:25:38] [SPEAKER_01]: He's a guy who does Oscar films
[00:25:40] [SPEAKER_01]: he does fucking comedies
[00:25:42] [SPEAKER_01]: he does family movies
[00:25:43] [SPEAKER_01]: he does big like fucking
[00:25:45] [SPEAKER_01]: sci-fi franchises
[00:25:46] [SPEAKER_01]: he does everything.
[00:25:47] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah he had been around
[00:25:48] [SPEAKER_01]: for a while.
[00:25:49] [SPEAKER_01]: But in the last like
[00:25:50] [SPEAKER_01]: six years I'd say
[00:25:51] [SPEAKER_01]: he moved into a different stratosphere.
[00:25:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah what is the movie?
[00:25:55] [SPEAKER_03]: Is it The Departed or is it Ted
[00:25:57] [SPEAKER_03]: or is it The Fighter?
[00:25:58] [SPEAKER_03]: It might be The Fighter.
[00:25:59] [SPEAKER_01]: I think the two back to back
[00:26:01] [SPEAKER_01]: that do a lot for him weirdly are
[00:26:03] [SPEAKER_01]: the other guys.
[00:26:03] [SPEAKER_01]: I think the other guys
[00:26:04] [SPEAKER_01]: opens him up a lot more
[00:26:05] [SPEAKER_01]: because it was like
[00:26:06] [SPEAKER_01]: he became self-aware.
[00:26:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Well the thing about him was
[00:26:09] [SPEAKER_01]: he had always been
[00:26:10] [SPEAKER_03]: this actor who worked
[00:26:11] [SPEAKER_03]: was great in movies
[00:26:12] [SPEAKER_03]: directed by great directors.
[00:26:13] [SPEAKER_03]: Yup.
[00:26:14] [SPEAKER_03]: And that I mean
[00:26:14] [SPEAKER_03]: I guess it's still basically true
[00:26:15] [SPEAKER_03]: but like Boogie Nights
[00:26:16] [SPEAKER_03]: obviously and then
[00:26:18] [SPEAKER_03]: the David O'Russell movies
[00:26:19] [SPEAKER_03]: I Heart Huckabees
[00:26:20] [SPEAKER_03]: and The Fighter
[00:26:21] [SPEAKER_03]: Three Kings.
[00:26:21] [SPEAKER_03]: And Three Kings.
[00:26:22] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah he's great in all three.
[00:26:23] [SPEAKER_03]: And we're just like
[00:26:23] [SPEAKER_03]: we were always like
[00:26:24] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah this guy's definitely got it
[00:26:26] [SPEAKER_03]: but then he would also make
[00:26:29] [SPEAKER_03]: whatever I don't know
[00:26:30] [SPEAKER_03]: fucking The Truth About Charlie.
[00:26:32] [SPEAKER_03]: There's no question
[00:26:33] [SPEAKER_03]: you know what's kind of good though
[00:26:34] [SPEAKER_03]: is the Italian job.
[00:26:35] [SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[00:26:35] Yeah.
[00:26:37] [SPEAKER_03]: He had made a bunch of good movies.
[00:26:38] [SPEAKER_03]: He'd made some good movies.
[00:26:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Because you know the James
[00:26:40] [SPEAKER_03]: Grey movies are good too
[00:26:41] [SPEAKER_03]: the Yards and We Own the Night.
[00:26:42] [SPEAKER_03]: That's another great director
[00:26:42] [SPEAKER_03]: who understands him.
[00:26:43] [SPEAKER_01]: I think it's less about great
[00:26:44] [SPEAKER_01]: directors because Jonathan
[00:26:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Demi directed Truth About Charlie
[00:26:46] [SPEAKER_01]: who is a great director
[00:26:47] [SPEAKER_01]: that's not a good movie.
[00:26:48] [SPEAKER_01]: That was you know what else
[00:26:49] [SPEAKER_01]: Jonathan Demi did?
[00:26:50] [SPEAKER_01]: He wrote the Truth About Charlie
[00:26:51] [SPEAKER_01]: and he doesn't write movies
[00:26:53] [SPEAKER_01]: and I don't I don't know
[00:26:54] [SPEAKER_01]: what was going on with it.
[00:26:54] [SPEAKER_01]: I also think that film is
[00:26:56] [SPEAKER_01]: like a fatal miscasting of him
[00:26:57] [SPEAKER_01]: where I think the reason
[00:26:59] [SPEAKER_01]: why Mark Wahlberg started
[00:27:00] [SPEAKER_01]: opening up was he started
[00:27:01] [SPEAKER_01]: realizing he became super
[00:27:03] [SPEAKER_01]: self-aware of who he was
[00:27:04] [SPEAKER_01]: right and like this is
[00:27:05] [SPEAKER_01]: Mark Wahlberg this is how
[00:27:06] [SPEAKER_01]: Mark Wahlberg works
[00:27:07] [SPEAKER_01]: this is what people like
[00:27:08] [SPEAKER_01]: about Mark Wahlberg
[00:27:08] [SPEAKER_01]: this is what people find funny
[00:27:10] [SPEAKER_01]: about Mark Wahlberg
[00:27:11] [SPEAKER_01]: and he like took all the things
[00:27:12] [SPEAKER_01]: that people used to mock him
[00:27:13] [SPEAKER_01]: for and started owning them
[00:27:14] [SPEAKER_01]: playing into them
[00:27:16] [SPEAKER_01]: and working within parameters
[00:27:17] [SPEAKER_01]: this is all after the happening
[00:27:18] [SPEAKER_01]: this is all after the happening
[00:27:19] [SPEAKER_01]: and I think the happening
[00:27:20] [SPEAKER_01]: is the one that shifts it all
[00:27:22] [SPEAKER_01]: in a way
[00:27:22] [SPEAKER_03]: well let's write no it's not
[00:27:23] [SPEAKER_03]: the happening that shift it
[00:27:24] [SPEAKER_03]: shifts it I think it is 100%
[00:27:27] [SPEAKER_03]: and Mark Wahlberg talks to animals
[00:27:28] [SPEAKER_03]: that shifts it if you remember
[00:27:30] [SPEAKER_03]: which should come out right
[00:27:32] [SPEAKER_03]: around the same time as
[00:27:33] [SPEAKER_03]: that happening maybe a little
[00:27:34] [SPEAKER_03]: before
[00:27:34] [SPEAKER_01]: can I throw something to you
[00:27:35] [SPEAKER_01]: go ahead
[00:27:35] [SPEAKER_01]: I think Mark Wahlberg talks
[00:27:36] [SPEAKER_01]: to animals is almost a
[00:27:38] [SPEAKER_01]: direct parody of his
[00:27:39] [SPEAKER_01]: performance in the happening
[00:27:40] [SPEAKER_03]: no but I think it's before
[00:27:42] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm pretty sure it's before
[00:27:45] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm looking it up
[00:27:46] [SPEAKER_03]: I look this up
[00:27:48] [SPEAKER_03]: no I'm wrong it's after
[00:27:50] [SPEAKER_03]: right yeah so I mean of course
[00:27:51] [SPEAKER_03]: he has a
[00:27:52] [SPEAKER_03]: the Kaelin stuff was happening
[00:27:53] [SPEAKER_03]: those two moments together
[00:27:54] [SPEAKER_03]: it's 2008 it's October 2008
[00:27:56] [SPEAKER_03]: so it's right after
[00:27:56] [SPEAKER_01]: happens a big fall on his face
[00:27:57] [SPEAKER_01]: and then everyone's laughing at him
[00:27:59] [SPEAKER_01]: and he like does a welfare
[00:28:00] [SPEAKER_01]: all comedy
[00:28:01] [SPEAKER_01]: and goes like I get it
[00:28:02] [SPEAKER_01]: I get what's weird and funny
[00:28:03] [SPEAKER_01]: about me
[00:28:03] [SPEAKER_01]: and then does like better action
[00:28:05] [SPEAKER_01]: movies
[00:28:05] [SPEAKER_01]: and then does Ted
[00:28:06] [SPEAKER_01]: like he just starts like
[00:28:07] [SPEAKER_01]: fucking steam rolling
[00:28:08] [SPEAKER_01]: and now he's like the head
[00:28:09] [SPEAKER_01]: of the Transformers franchise
[00:28:10] [SPEAKER_01]: and all these things
[00:28:11] [SPEAKER_01]: but he is a guy who like
[00:28:13] [SPEAKER_01]: there's no question he's a movie
[00:28:14] [SPEAKER_01]: star right
[00:28:15] [SPEAKER_01]: the guy's just innately
[00:28:16] [SPEAKER_01]: watchable he's got a lot of
[00:28:18] [SPEAKER_01]: presence yeah right there's
[00:28:19] [SPEAKER_01]: something interesting about him
[00:28:20] [SPEAKER_01]: in this old movie star way
[00:28:21] [SPEAKER_01]: where he's got a face
[00:28:22] [SPEAKER_01]: and a voice
[00:28:23] [SPEAKER_01]: anyone you can do an impression
[00:28:24] [SPEAKER_01]: of in that way is distinct
[00:28:26] [SPEAKER_01]: enough that they're engaging to
[00:28:27] [SPEAKER_01]: watch
[00:28:27] [SPEAKER_01]: whether it's because they're
[00:28:28] [SPEAKER_01]: good or they're bad
[00:28:29] [SPEAKER_01]: you know like anyone who has
[00:28:31] [SPEAKER_01]: a whole vibe that you could
[00:28:32] [SPEAKER_01]: impersonate
[00:28:33] [SPEAKER_01]: has some star quality
[00:28:35] [SPEAKER_01]: that just needs to be
[00:28:36] [SPEAKER_01]: placed in the right context
[00:28:38] [SPEAKER_01]: and you know utilize
[00:28:40] [SPEAKER_01]: properly yeah
[00:28:41] [SPEAKER_01]: but he can still be
[00:28:43] [SPEAKER_01]: really bad
[00:28:44] [SPEAKER_01]: like he's pretty bad in
[00:28:45] [SPEAKER_01]: Transformers 4
[00:28:46] [SPEAKER_01]: agreed but I think that is
[00:28:48] [SPEAKER_01]: a terrible part for him
[00:28:49] [SPEAKER_01]: yeah I mean yeah
[00:28:50] [SPEAKER_01]: in that it's barely a part
[00:28:52] [SPEAKER_01]: and the bear like scraps
[00:28:54] [SPEAKER_01]: of characterization on the
[00:28:55] [SPEAKER_01]: side of it
[00:28:56] [SPEAKER_01]: don't once again he's playing
[00:28:57] [SPEAKER_01]: like a fucking scientist
[00:28:58] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm sure you well
[00:28:59] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm sure you've seen his
[00:29:00] [SPEAKER_03]: quote about the happening
[00:29:01] [SPEAKER_03]: let's refocus on the
[00:29:02] [SPEAKER_03]: happening right you have
[00:29:03] [SPEAKER_03]: you seen it
[00:29:03] [SPEAKER_03]: I need to be trivia I believe
[00:29:05] [SPEAKER_03]: I've got it yeah okay
[00:29:06] [SPEAKER_03]: just during press for the
[00:29:08] [SPEAKER_03]: fighter he's doing press to
[00:29:09] [SPEAKER_03]: the fighter he noted that
[00:29:10] [SPEAKER_03]: Amy Adams had almost played
[00:29:11] [SPEAKER_03]: his wife in the happening
[00:29:12] [SPEAKER_03]: what a made more sense than
[00:29:14] [SPEAKER_03]: Zoe Dachanel weird couple
[00:29:16] [SPEAKER_03]: and he said she had dodged
[00:29:19] [SPEAKER_03]: a bullet by not being in the
[00:29:20] [SPEAKER_03]: movie and he said then said
[00:29:22] [SPEAKER_03]: it was a really bad movie I

[00:29:25] [SPEAKER_02]: also those fucking

[00:29:38] [SPEAKER_03]: copper or crook you can't
[00:29:39] [SPEAKER_01]: blame me for wanting to try
[00:29:40] [SPEAKER_01]: to play science at least

[00:30:05] [SPEAKER_01]: Ferris wheel well I can't
[00:30:06] [SPEAKER_01]: consider him more of a
[00:30:07] [SPEAKER_01]: finger than a stalker but

[00:30:15] [SPEAKER_03]: don't know what his complaint
[00:30:16] [SPEAKER_03]: is because it's like yeah
[00:30:18] [SPEAKER_03]: you're a leading man like
[00:30:19] [SPEAKER_03]: leading men tend to play these
[00:30:20] [SPEAKER_03]: sorts of like you know gun
[00:30:22] [SPEAKER_03]: gun-wielding types like you
[00:30:24] [SPEAKER_03]: know yeah but apparently he
[00:30:25] [SPEAKER_03]: really wanted to play a
[00:30:26] [SPEAKER_03]: science teacher and in the
[00:30:27] [SPEAKER_03]: happening or I mean like he
[00:30:28] [SPEAKER_03]: was into the idea of playing
[00:30:30] [SPEAKER_03]: like a nonviolent man I
[00:30:32] [SPEAKER_01]: guess now here's the
[00:30:33] [SPEAKER_01]: craziest part right bad casting
[00:30:35] [SPEAKER_01]: choice but he was hot at
[00:30:36] [SPEAKER_01]: this moment when someone's
[00:30:37] [SPEAKER_01]: rendus cast I mean a
[00:30:38] [SPEAKER_01]: disastrous catastrophic
[00:30:39] [SPEAKER_01]: casting decision when
[00:30:41] [SPEAKER_01]: someone's hot like that
[00:30:42] [SPEAKER_01]: Hollywood just tries to plug
[00:30:43] [SPEAKER_01]: them into stuff and they just
[00:30:44] [SPEAKER_01]: so well he's hot we like him
[00:30:46] [SPEAKER_01]: you just got the Oscar
[00:30:46] [SPEAKER_01]: nomination what are things we
[00:30:47] [SPEAKER_01]: can make in the war with
[00:30:49] [SPEAKER_03]: Casper usually usually and
[00:30:51] [SPEAKER_03]: like why didn't you see this
[00:30:53] [SPEAKER_03]: coming that like this is a
[00:30:54] [SPEAKER_03]: role that requires someone to
[00:30:55] [SPEAKER_03]: basically yell all the time
[00:30:57] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah and like talk about the
[00:30:58] [SPEAKER_01]: worst match for Mark Wahlberg
[00:31:00] [SPEAKER_01]: I need to be trivia fact
[00:31:01] [SPEAKER_01]: number three and night Shyamalan
[00:31:03] [SPEAKER_01]: wrote the screenplay with
[00:31:04] [SPEAKER_01]: Mark Wahlberg in mind for the
[00:31:06] [SPEAKER_01]: lead role well that doesn't
[00:31:07] [SPEAKER_01]: make any sense maybe you
[00:31:09] [SPEAKER_01]: just like studio pressure
[00:31:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Berg we all like Mark Wahlberg
[00:31:12] [SPEAKER_01]: but we like him when we like
[00:31:13] [SPEAKER_01]: him where we like him
[00:31:15] [SPEAKER_01]: where he belongs and we've
[00:31:18] [SPEAKER_01]: realized now there are a couple
[00:31:19] [SPEAKER_01]: different boxes he belongs in
[00:31:20] [SPEAKER_01]: but science teacher is not one
[00:31:22] [SPEAKER_01]: of them in the same way that
[00:31:23] [SPEAKER_01]: do it yourself fucking
[00:31:25] [SPEAKER_01]: inventor well Texas inventor
[00:31:27] [SPEAKER_01]: in the transformers
[00:31:27] [SPEAKER_01]: franchise is another but his
[00:31:29] [SPEAKER_01]: character's name is Kade
[00:31:30] [SPEAKER_01]: Yeager when I talk about
[00:31:31] [SPEAKER_01]: Texas boy talking about things
[00:31:33] [SPEAKER_01]: we're talking about the
[00:31:34] [SPEAKER_03]: Hamlin happening okay talking
[00:31:36] [SPEAKER_03]: about the happening his
[00:31:36] [SPEAKER_03]: character is Elliott Moore
[00:31:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Philadelphia high school science
[00:31:40] [SPEAKER_03]: teacher who's a bit of a prankster
[00:31:42] [SPEAKER_03]: as we see in his one fucking
[00:31:44] [SPEAKER_01]: with his students okay we talk
[00:31:46] [SPEAKER_01]: about the first six minutes of
[00:31:47] [SPEAKER_01]: this movie because I think the
[00:31:48] [SPEAKER_01]: first six minutes are kind of
[00:31:49] [SPEAKER_03]: perfect the sense of Central
[00:31:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Park scene we see clouds moving
[00:31:53] [SPEAKER_01]: quickly we hear James Horner
[00:31:55] [SPEAKER_01]: score died not James James
[00:31:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Newton Howard is usually got
[00:31:58] [SPEAKER_03]: and talk Fujimura who had made
[00:32:00] [SPEAKER_03]: who shot the sixth sense form
[00:32:02] [SPEAKER_03]: and who would shot signs yes
[00:32:04] [SPEAKER_01]: back he's back baby
[00:32:06] [SPEAKER_01]: back in tack
[00:32:07] [SPEAKER_01]: oh they see just came on yeah
[00:32:11] [SPEAKER_01]: they see James Newton Howard
[00:32:13] [SPEAKER_01]: running those trains done and
[00:32:14] [SPEAKER_03]: on down on his most interesting
[00:32:16] [SPEAKER_03]: score for no one I think it's
[00:32:18] [SPEAKER_01]: actually a bit of a mismatch but
[00:32:19] [SPEAKER_01]: the opening crats are exciting
[00:32:20] [SPEAKER_01]: enough right and then we go to
[00:32:22] [SPEAKER_01]: Central Park no two ladies
[00:32:24] [SPEAKER_01]: sitting there and one of them
[00:32:25] [SPEAKER_01]: goes I forgot where I was
[00:32:28] [SPEAKER_01]: and she goes you're on page
[00:32:29] [SPEAKER_01]: seventy two the part where the
[00:32:30] [SPEAKER_03]: guy reads the thing so one
[00:32:32] [SPEAKER_03]: thing we should note about this
[00:32:33] [SPEAKER_03]: thing in the happening is there's
[00:32:35] [SPEAKER_03]: two things it does one it kind of
[00:32:37] [SPEAKER_03]: makes you repeat yourself and
[00:32:38] [SPEAKER_03]: sort of freeze up and lose memory
[00:32:39] [SPEAKER_03]: and then to it makes you violently
[00:32:42] [SPEAKER_03]: kill yourself right with a
[00:32:44] [SPEAKER_03]: complete calm yeah that's like
[00:32:45] [SPEAKER_03]: the that's it that's it that's
[00:32:47] [SPEAKER_03]: like what's happening in that is
[00:32:48] [SPEAKER_01]: the happen that's the happening
[00:32:49] [SPEAKER_01]: that's a titular happening what this
[00:32:51] [SPEAKER_01]: movie is about that's happening
[00:32:53] [SPEAKER_01]: they're talking about the book and
[00:32:54] [SPEAKER_01]: they're having a weird conversation
[00:32:55] [SPEAKER_01]: one of them is played by
[00:32:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Kristen Connolly now of a
[00:32:58] [SPEAKER_03]: house of cards she's in
[00:33:00] [SPEAKER_01]: cabin woods she looks over her
[00:33:02] [SPEAKER_01]: shoulder she sees that all these
[00:33:04] [SPEAKER_01]: people are standing still in the
[00:33:05] [SPEAKER_01]: middle Central Park oh how peculiar
[00:33:07] [SPEAKER_01]: what is happening then she turns
[00:33:10] [SPEAKER_01]: to her friend she goes like Cindy
[00:33:11] [SPEAKER_01]: what's happening and she goes I
[00:33:14] [SPEAKER_01]: blank blank blank nothing yeah and
[00:33:16] [SPEAKER_01]: then she takes her the chopstick
[00:33:18] [SPEAKER_01]: out of her hair calmly yes and
[00:33:20] [SPEAKER_03]: steal her neck cool it is cool
[00:33:23] [SPEAKER_03]: the only problem with it and at
[00:33:24] [SPEAKER_03]: least for me was like the
[00:33:26] [SPEAKER_03]: marketing was really like that
[00:33:28] [SPEAKER_03]: was in the market yeah they
[00:33:29] [SPEAKER_03]: ruined it so the shock of this
[00:33:31] [SPEAKER_03]: movie I feel like is that I think
[00:33:33] [SPEAKER_01]: that was the teaser trailer yes but
[00:33:35] [SPEAKER_01]: but I look at that moment and I
[00:33:37] [SPEAKER_01]: remember seeing it in the theater
[00:33:38] [SPEAKER_01]: and I went like this is the okay
[00:33:40] [SPEAKER_01]: this is what I'm like could do with
[00:33:41] [SPEAKER_01]: an R he's not trying to go super
[00:33:43] [SPEAKER_01]: gory he's not trying to evil debt
[00:33:45] [SPEAKER_03]: it goes into her neck a little like
[00:33:47] [SPEAKER_03]: a trickle of blood comes up but it's
[00:33:48] [SPEAKER_03]: not like a big gross like arterial
[00:33:51] [SPEAKER_03]: sort of spray but that kind of image
[00:33:53] [SPEAKER_01]: is a little too disturbing for PG-13
[00:33:54] [SPEAKER_01]: absolutely and you feel like if
[00:33:56] [SPEAKER_01]: that's where the movie starting if
[00:33:57] [SPEAKER_01]: he's gonna repeat images like that
[00:33:59] [SPEAKER_01]: that could be his are it's not
[00:34:00] [SPEAKER_01]: limbs getting removed it's shit like
[00:34:02] [SPEAKER_01]: that that's just a little fucking a
[00:34:04] [SPEAKER_01]: little too much for PG-13 right yeah
[00:34:07] [SPEAKER_01]: we are effective still effective super
[00:34:09] [SPEAKER_03]: effective super effective good not much
[00:34:11] [SPEAKER_03]: worse than what we've seen in the sixth
[00:34:13] [SPEAKER_03]: sense just a little more actively
[00:34:14] [SPEAKER_01]: violent right it's you get the close
[00:34:17] [SPEAKER_01]: up of the thing going and it's good
[00:34:18] [SPEAKER_03]: okay you think it's gonna cut away
[00:34:20] [SPEAKER_01]: and it doesn't that's hard cut to
[00:34:21] [SPEAKER_01]: construction sites that's the first
[00:34:22] [SPEAKER_01]: three minutes first three minutes
[00:34:23] [SPEAKER_01]: of the film are well the construction
[00:34:25] [SPEAKER_03]: site scene is very might like a lot
[00:34:28] [SPEAKER_03]: of movies that were coming out around
[00:34:30] [SPEAKER_03]: now it's like movies are finally
[00:34:32] [SPEAKER_03]: starting to broach like 9-11 imagery
[00:34:35] [SPEAKER_01]: that kung fu panda did that all right
[00:34:39] [SPEAKER_03]: that's it that's the end of the
[00:34:41] [SPEAKER_03]: podcast all podcast that's it goodbye
[00:34:44] [SPEAKER_03]: forever no you know yeah there's a
[00:34:46] [SPEAKER_01]: scene with the two dumplings and then
[00:34:47] [SPEAKER_01]: he no and so the cut back down at a
[00:34:50] [SPEAKER_01]: construction yard again one comedy
[00:34:53] [SPEAKER_03]: like people free people freeze up yes
[00:34:55] [SPEAKER_03]: what's happening we hear like sort of
[00:34:57] [SPEAKER_03]: thudding noises the first thing that
[00:34:59] [SPEAKER_01]: happens is they're talking and a body
[00:35:01] [SPEAKER_03]: for when they're like oh god somebody
[00:35:02] [SPEAKER_03]: felt you know they're thinking every
[00:35:03] [SPEAKER_03]: destruction boy yeah and then people
[00:35:06] [SPEAKER_03]: are just throwing themselves from the
[00:35:07] [SPEAKER_01]: top of the boat there's an amazing
[00:35:08] [SPEAKER_01]: image where the guy looks I was also in
[00:35:10] [SPEAKER_01]: the market yes he looks up and you
[00:35:13] [SPEAKER_01]: just see the edge of the building and
[00:35:15] [SPEAKER_01]: people just starting to step up and
[00:35:17] [SPEAKER_01]: these bodies starting to fall towards
[00:35:19] [SPEAKER_01]: the lens it's a beautiful beautiful
[00:35:21] [SPEAKER_01]: shot and he's doing a lot of what
[00:35:23] [SPEAKER_01]: tech footage motors good at what he
[00:35:24] [SPEAKER_01]: did in the sort of a lot in
[00:35:26] [SPEAKER_01]: silence of the lambs of Jonathan
[00:35:27] [SPEAKER_01]: Demi where it's like characters
[00:35:29] [SPEAKER_01]: staring down the barrel of the
[00:35:31] [SPEAKER_01]: lens which is very disorienting it's
[00:35:33] [SPEAKER_01]: very unnerving you know yeah you're
[00:35:35] [SPEAKER_01]: seeing the guys who are trying to
[00:35:37] [SPEAKER_01]: figure out what's going on looking
[00:35:38] [SPEAKER_01]: straight into the camera and then
[00:35:39] [SPEAKER_01]: you're seeing their perspective
[00:35:40] [SPEAKER_01]: which is bodies falling towards them
[00:35:42] [SPEAKER_03]: he's a creepy 9-11 thing okay so that
[00:35:44] [SPEAKER_03]: cloverfield come up the year before
[00:35:46] [SPEAKER_03]: like movies were starting to play on
[00:35:47] [SPEAKER_03]: that imagery of the news
[00:35:48] [SPEAKER_01]: chlorophyll came out earlier that
[00:35:50] [SPEAKER_01]: year that was January at the top of
[00:35:51] [SPEAKER_01]: away yeah right right so yeah sure
[00:35:53] [SPEAKER_01]: okay so that's where at minute six
[00:35:56] [SPEAKER_01]: I believe second 30 of the film
[00:35:58] [SPEAKER_01]: oh god I like this yeah watching it
[00:36:00] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm hooked I'm watching an Amazon I'm
[00:36:02] [SPEAKER_01]: going was I wrong about this thing
[00:36:03] [SPEAKER_01]: because this is always been my least
[00:36:04] [SPEAKER_01]: favorite am I wrong about this and then
[00:36:06] [SPEAKER_01]: at minute six second 32
[00:36:10] [SPEAKER_01]: marky mark enters yeah and goes like
[00:36:12] [SPEAKER_01]: okay so well well what good about the
[00:36:14] [SPEAKER_03]: honeybees so here's the thing about
[00:36:16] [SPEAKER_03]: Mark Wahlberg in this film yeah not the
[00:36:18] [SPEAKER_03]: worst performance in the film
[00:36:20] [SPEAKER_03]: interesting Zoe Deschanel's
[00:36:22] [SPEAKER_03]: performance is worse than disagree we're
[00:36:23] [SPEAKER_03]: gonna talk about this a lot I agree
[00:36:25] [SPEAKER_03]: with that yeah so additional performance
[00:36:27] [SPEAKER_03]: is one of the most disastrous
[00:36:28] [SPEAKER_03]: performances I've ever seen in a major
[00:36:30] [SPEAKER_03]: film I disagree I mark Wahlberg it's like
[00:36:32] [SPEAKER_03]: I get why he's bad like you know he's
[00:36:35] [SPEAKER_03]: like he I can see him being bad if
[00:36:38] [SPEAKER_03]: that makes sense so he does you know
[00:36:40] [SPEAKER_03]: never makes a correct choice ever is
[00:36:43] [SPEAKER_03]: she making a choice I mean like
[00:36:44] [SPEAKER_03]: everything she does is wrong so wrong
[00:36:48] [SPEAKER_03]: can I throw something I like Zoe Deschanel
[00:36:50] [SPEAKER_01]: in general can I throw something out
[00:36:52] [SPEAKER_01]: there I think Mark Wahlberg's
[00:36:53] [SPEAKER_01]: performance this movie is one of the
[00:36:54] [SPEAKER_01]: most disastrously performances ever
[00:36:56] [SPEAKER_01]: in a studio it's not good I'm not
[00:36:58] [SPEAKER_01]: saying it's good I think so I just
[00:37:00] [SPEAKER_01]: know I'll secretly really good no she's
[00:37:02] [SPEAKER_01]: not I think she is I'm gonna make I'm
[00:37:04] [SPEAKER_01]: gonna build an argument for it there's
[00:37:06] [SPEAKER_01]: no argument but let's focus on Wahlberg
[00:37:07] [SPEAKER_01]: first there's not an argument there's
[00:37:09] [SPEAKER_01]: an argument I'm gonna build it there
[00:37:10] [SPEAKER_01]: is no argument I'm gonna build it
[00:37:12] [SPEAKER_01]: because I felt the same way when I
[00:37:13] [SPEAKER_01]: saw the first time I was a huge Zoe
[00:37:14] [SPEAKER_01]: Deschanel fan I saw and I went this
[00:37:15] [SPEAKER_01]: is a fucking disastrous I had already
[00:37:17] [SPEAKER_03]: soured on her because I mean and I
[00:37:18] [SPEAKER_03]: was talking to past guest Katie Rich
[00:37:20] [SPEAKER_03]: about this about her weird career
[00:37:22] [SPEAKER_03]: very weird how like obviously she came
[00:37:24] [SPEAKER_03]: onto the scene strong indie star Jimmy
[00:37:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Collins and your boyfriend music video
[00:37:29] [SPEAKER_03]: and then you know she does like all the
[00:37:32] [SPEAKER_03]: real girls almost famous was her
[00:37:34] [SPEAKER_03]: breakout was crazy yeah famous good girl
[00:37:36] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah and then she does all the real
[00:37:38] [SPEAKER_03]: girls all the real girls good girl I
[00:37:40] [SPEAKER_03]: would give her an Oscar I would too and
[00:37:42] [SPEAKER_03]: then that same as she does elf which
[00:37:44] [SPEAKER_03]: she's so charming in and it's such a
[00:37:46] [SPEAKER_03]: nice movie and it's a huge hit it
[00:37:48] [SPEAKER_03]: felt like she was gonna be a big star
[00:37:50] [SPEAKER_03]: she makes movies that literally sound
[00:37:53] [SPEAKER_03]: like parodies of indie movies well like
[00:37:55] [SPEAKER_01]: gigantic a poll day and take you legy
[00:37:58] [SPEAKER_03]: flakes winter passing live free or die
[00:38:02] [SPEAKER_01]: is it good life I believe there's one
[00:38:04] [SPEAKER_01]: called flakes that's about her working
[00:38:05] [SPEAKER_01]: at a cereal restaurant that only
[00:38:06] [SPEAKER_01]: serves breakfast cereal like I swear to
[00:38:09] [SPEAKER_03]: God I mean we were talking about like
[00:38:10] [SPEAKER_03]: when every movie became like a
[00:38:12] [SPEAKER_03]: Tribeca film festival yeah like you know
[00:38:14] [SPEAKER_03]: like it's just just garbage yeah you
[00:38:17] [SPEAKER_02]: know this is also around the time that
[00:38:18] [SPEAKER_02]: she's active and she and him as well
[00:38:20] [SPEAKER_02]: she and she is touring everyone's
[00:38:22] [SPEAKER_03]: little sicker her whole like iconic
[00:38:26] [SPEAKER_03]: sort of thing right and then when she does
[00:38:28] [SPEAKER_01]: new girl she kind of owns it and weaponize
[00:38:30] [SPEAKER_03]: it makes herself a part of the fun days
[00:38:32] [SPEAKER_03]: of summer which I feel like that's when
[00:38:33] [SPEAKER_03]: it's like at critical mass and then she
[00:38:36] [SPEAKER_03]: does new girl and right and she's sort
[00:38:38] [SPEAKER_03]: of she takes me meta about it yes
[00:38:40] [SPEAKER_03]: um which by then basically she hasn't
[00:38:42] [SPEAKER_01]: done any movies in the movies anymore
[00:38:43] [SPEAKER_01]: she's done one film since new girl
[00:38:45] [SPEAKER_01]: started can you name that film rock the
[00:38:47] [SPEAKER_01]: cast yeah unfortunately I'll talk about
[00:38:49] [SPEAKER_01]: that one anyway but anyway so but we've
[00:38:53] [SPEAKER_01]: got wallberg science teacher okay so
[00:38:55] [SPEAKER_01]: there's one detail he throws out in the
[00:38:57] [SPEAKER_01]: scene I've never stopped thinking about
[00:38:58] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't bees no the thing about your face
[00:39:00] [SPEAKER_01]: growing every year yeah I think about
[00:39:03] [SPEAKER_03]: that a lot it's a weird yeah he's like your
[00:39:05] [SPEAKER_03]: nose grows a little bit like every year
[00:39:07] [SPEAKER_01]: and the kids look like and he's like hey
[00:39:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Jack good looking he's not even that
[00:39:11] [SPEAKER_01]: great looking but within the context of
[00:39:12] [SPEAKER_01]: the film the film has to be the hot
[00:39:14] [SPEAKER_01]: to accept that the kid has a perfect
[00:39:16] [SPEAKER_01]: face right yeah and he goes like hey
[00:39:18] [SPEAKER_01]: Jerry don't you have any answer for the
[00:39:19] [SPEAKER_01]: question because he's just going what
[00:39:21] [SPEAKER_01]: about the honey bees guys getting good
[00:39:22] [SPEAKER_01]: what do you think happened to honey bees
[00:39:24] [SPEAKER_01]: honey bees are disappearing he's got an
[00:39:26] [SPEAKER_01]: Einstein quote behind him on the wall
[00:39:27] [SPEAKER_01]: that says when the honey bees start
[00:39:29] [SPEAKER_01]: dying humanity has four years left yeah
[00:39:32] [SPEAKER_01]: right and it says like direct quote from
[00:39:33] [SPEAKER_01]: Einstein on the chalkboard he's
[00:39:35] [SPEAKER_01]: asking everyone about the honey bees
[00:39:36] [SPEAKER_01]: and he goes like what about you Jerry
[00:39:37] [SPEAKER_01]: and Jerry's like and he's like oh what
[00:39:40] [SPEAKER_01]: you're too busy having a perfect
[00:39:41] [SPEAKER_01]: face to give me an answer about the
[00:39:42] [SPEAKER_01]: honey bees and Jerry's like so at this
[00:39:45] [SPEAKER_03]: point I am already actively
[00:39:46] [SPEAKER_03]: disconnecting from the film yeah because
[00:39:49] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm abandoning already this is not you
[00:39:51] [SPEAKER_01]: know mark no way to think we're like I'm
[00:39:54] [SPEAKER_03]: on the ship and like there's one little
[00:39:57] [SPEAKER_03]: leak yeah but for some reason I'm like
[00:39:59] [SPEAKER_03]: some sort of math genius like who knows
[00:40:01] [SPEAKER_03]: everything about ships and I'm just
[00:40:02] [SPEAKER_03]: like we got to go like it's just one
[00:40:05] [SPEAKER_03]: little thing but I'm like it's too
[00:40:06] [SPEAKER_03]: late we have to you know what you are
[00:40:07] [SPEAKER_01]: your Victor Garber and Titanic going I
[00:40:09] [SPEAKER_01]: design this ship I know if we're
[00:40:11] [SPEAKER_01]: hitting that spot there's no way we
[00:40:12] [SPEAKER_01]: make it through the night she's made
[00:40:14] [SPEAKER_03]: of iron sure sir and I assure you she
[00:40:16] [SPEAKER_03]: can yeah that's the line right but yeah
[00:40:18] [SPEAKER_03]: no I mean it just immediately you're
[00:40:20] [SPEAKER_03]: just like something fucked up is
[00:40:22] [SPEAKER_03]: happening here like that was my read I
[00:40:24] [SPEAKER_03]: was like this is not where you take
[00:40:26] [SPEAKER_03]: those first no no and this is take it
[00:40:29] [SPEAKER_03]: to some cutesy this is not who you
[00:40:31] [SPEAKER_01]: have playing this part no and you
[00:40:34] [SPEAKER_01]: need someone there what they set up is
[00:40:35] [SPEAKER_01]: this guy such a big this is how I
[00:40:37] [SPEAKER_01]: would describe this performance okay I
[00:40:39] [SPEAKER_01]: would say I would describe it as Mark
[00:40:41] [SPEAKER_01]: Wahlberg doing an impression of Mark
[00:40:43] [SPEAKER_01]: Wahlberg yeah doing an impression of a
[00:40:46] [SPEAKER_03]: nerd yeah I mean the one thing
[00:40:48] [SPEAKER_03]: Wahlberg has going for him versus like
[00:40:50] [SPEAKER_03]: say you know 15 years ago maybe Arnold
[00:40:52] [SPEAKER_03]: Schwarzenegger plays this role or whatever
[00:40:53] [SPEAKER_03]: Mark Wahlberg is not big like he's kind
[00:40:55] [SPEAKER_03]: of a slight tough guy he's small and
[00:40:58] [SPEAKER_01]: he slimmed down it looks like this role
[00:40:59] [SPEAKER_03]: disguise you can discuss not like
[00:41:01] [SPEAKER_03]: kindergarten well kindergarten cup
[00:41:03] [SPEAKER_03]: doesn't but you know it's not like some
[00:41:04] [SPEAKER_03]: movie where junior like where it's like
[00:41:06] [SPEAKER_03]: our short snickers he's not I'm sorry
[00:41:08] [SPEAKER_03]: he's just not a doctor every other
[00:41:10] [SPEAKER_01]: Schwarzenegger movie needs to see
[00:41:11] [SPEAKER_01]: where someone goes why do you look
[00:41:12] [SPEAKER_01]: like that how much time do you spend in
[00:41:15] [SPEAKER_01]: the gym but but Wahlberg yeah it's like
[00:41:17] [SPEAKER_01]: a guy that okay every line reading to
[00:41:22] [SPEAKER_01]: me plays like he wants to beat up his
[00:41:23] [SPEAKER_03]: own character he might look at but he
[00:41:27] [SPEAKER_03]: doesn't embody it and I can just hate
[00:41:29] [SPEAKER_03]: this fucking nerd he's playing the
[00:41:31] [SPEAKER_03]: role he's born for is the departed
[00:41:33] [SPEAKER_03]: which is the chip on the shoulder
[00:41:34] [SPEAKER_03]: guy who's like yeah I know I'm a little
[00:41:36] [SPEAKER_03]: small yeah but like don't fuck with
[00:41:38] [SPEAKER_03]: me like you know I'm crazy you
[00:41:39] [SPEAKER_03]: don't know what I'm gonna do he's
[00:41:40] [SPEAKER_03]: playing the fuck you guy yeah and this
[00:41:42] [SPEAKER_01]: guy he's playing the fuck me guy like I
[00:41:44] [SPEAKER_01]: don't know fuck me like what Russell does
[00:41:47] [SPEAKER_03]: which is he takes it David or Russell he
[00:41:49] [SPEAKER_03]: takes advantage of like you thinking
[00:41:51] [SPEAKER_03]: like this guy's like got an inferiority
[00:41:53] [SPEAKER_03]: complex you know like in an I her
[00:41:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Huckabees or in the fight or he's
[00:41:56] [SPEAKER_03]: kind of sad yeah doesn't trust
[00:41:58] [SPEAKER_03]: himself like that's good Wahlberg but
[00:42:00] [SPEAKER_01]: it's but it's that inferiority
[00:42:02] [SPEAKER_03]: cocky but then you're also like who
[00:42:04] [SPEAKER_03]: is this he's a science he uses
[00:42:05] [SPEAKER_01]: my keys mode to overcome his in for
[00:42:07] [SPEAKER_01]: inferiority complex not to overcome it
[00:42:09] [SPEAKER_01]: to disguise it right I guess if you take
[00:42:11] [SPEAKER_01]: away the sense of a keys mode you got
[00:42:13] [SPEAKER_01]: nothing so this he's just like a straw
[00:42:14] [SPEAKER_01]: man because it's just like I don't know
[00:42:16] [SPEAKER_01]: I love science and he goes up at the end
[00:42:18] [SPEAKER_01]: of every single sentence in a way where
[00:42:20] [SPEAKER_01]: it sounds like he can barely keep his
[00:42:22] [SPEAKER_01]: fist out of frame from punching
[00:42:23] [SPEAKER_01]: himself in the face that's be like
[00:42:25] [SPEAKER_01]: listen is fucking nerd that's what
[00:42:27] [SPEAKER_03]: Samberg it was just Samberg who is
[00:42:29] [SPEAKER_03]: never like a master impressionist but
[00:42:31] [SPEAKER_03]: he just nailed the diction identify the
[00:42:33] [SPEAKER_03]: that up thing and like
[00:42:35] [SPEAKER_03]: everything he says sounds like a stupid
[00:42:37] [SPEAKER_01]: thing and this is the movie where he does
[00:42:38] [SPEAKER_01]: that the most and and where he's least
[00:42:40] [SPEAKER_01]: convincing in every single line reading he
[00:42:42] [SPEAKER_01]: says those things as kid where he's like you got a perfect face
[00:42:45] [SPEAKER_01]: well guess what your face grew grows
[00:42:46] [SPEAKER_01]: like one fifteenth of a centimeter every year
[00:42:49] [SPEAKER_01]: so in fifteen years your nose is gonna suck
[00:42:51] [SPEAKER_01]: and then he's like I'm just kidding you're always
[00:42:53] [SPEAKER_01]: gonna have a perfect face I think about that
[00:42:54] [SPEAKER_01]: all the time well okay I don't
[00:42:57] [SPEAKER_01]: I don't give credit to the movie but I it's
[00:42:59] [SPEAKER_01]: just a weird thing I like that sometimes you see
[00:43:00] [SPEAKER_01]: something in a movie and teaches you something about life
[00:43:02] [SPEAKER_01]: and you remember it forever okay what if
[00:43:04] [SPEAKER_03]: my turns out I might just made that shit up
[00:43:07] [SPEAKER_03]: and you've been just thinking I believe it
[00:43:08] [SPEAKER_03]: but anyway so but I mean then we
[00:43:10] [SPEAKER_03]: proceed pretty quickly Alan
[00:43:12] [SPEAKER_03]: ruck shows up for one second for the
[00:43:14] [SPEAKER_03]: principle just to be like hey
[00:43:16] [SPEAKER_03]: we got like schools out something crazy
[00:43:18] [SPEAKER_03]: is happening yeah
[00:43:20] [SPEAKER_03]: goes home yeah something is the
[00:43:22] [SPEAKER_03]: happening yeah at walbert goes home
[00:43:24] [SPEAKER_03]: to his wife oh before that hard cut
[00:43:26] [SPEAKER_02]: also I do want to say it's 9-11 ish
[00:43:28] [SPEAKER_02]: well remind me of my experience it's all very 9-11
[00:43:31] [SPEAKER_02]: right yeah it's like yeah we got to leave school
[00:43:33] [SPEAKER_03]: like yeah teachers we don't know what's going on
[00:43:35] [SPEAKER_03]: we just want to get everyone home that's what
[00:43:36] [SPEAKER_03]: my knowledge is the movie about like a vague
[00:43:38] [SPEAKER_03]: sort of trauma people are trying to escape
[00:43:41] [SPEAKER_03]: from but like this is more directly you
[00:43:43] [SPEAKER_03]: can tell it's on his mind this is living
[00:43:44] [SPEAKER_03]: and lady in the water too is about like
[00:43:46] [SPEAKER_03]: there's like this specter of darkness around
[00:43:48] [SPEAKER_03]: like you know the wars that we see on TV and
[00:43:50] [SPEAKER_01]: stuff like but those movies are reactionary it's
[00:43:52] [SPEAKER_01]: the fallout this film is what does it feel like
[00:43:54] [SPEAKER_03]: in the moment when the world is kind of like
[00:43:57] [SPEAKER_03]: what Spielberg did with war the world except
[00:43:59] [SPEAKER_03]: Steven Spielberg's war the world is really good
[00:44:01] [SPEAKER_03]: and really like frightening and
[00:44:03] [SPEAKER_03]: like disorienting yeah whereas this
[00:44:05] [SPEAKER_01]: is not at all
[00:44:07] [SPEAKER_01]: so they hard cut from
[00:44:09] [SPEAKER_01]: Ellen Ruck going just go home be with your
[00:44:11] [SPEAKER_01]: families to so we dash in L
[00:44:13] [SPEAKER_01]: staring at the camera her big blue eyes
[00:44:15] [SPEAKER_01]: like all eyes
[00:44:17] [SPEAKER_01]: I forgot about that it cut she's got
[00:44:19] [SPEAKER_01]: obviously these gorgeous blue eyes and like
[00:44:20] [SPEAKER_01]: they just cut to their wide open eyes
[00:44:23] [SPEAKER_01]: she's staring she's sitting in a room by
[00:44:25] [SPEAKER_01]: herself and you're like what the fuck's going on
[00:44:26] [SPEAKER_01]: and then cell phone vibration I mean I think
[00:44:29] [SPEAKER_03]: it's supposed to be like a misdirective
[00:44:30] [SPEAKER_03]: like was she about to stab a
[00:44:33] [SPEAKER_03]: top stick through her neck or whatever right then
[00:44:34] [SPEAKER_03]: like no she's just pensive because
[00:44:37] [SPEAKER_03]: maybe she wants to leave her husband maybe
[00:44:39] [SPEAKER_01]: well and then I think you also are supposed
[00:44:40] [SPEAKER_01]: to think misdirect it's your husband calling her on the cell
[00:44:42] [SPEAKER_01]: phone and she picks up and she goes like Joey
[00:44:44] [SPEAKER_01]: I can't we just got tear masu one time
[00:44:47] [SPEAKER_01]: that's it can't you move on I believe
[00:44:49] [SPEAKER_01]: the voice on the other end of the line
[00:44:51] [SPEAKER_01]: is at night that is correct and I shot
[00:44:52] [SPEAKER_01]: the voice of Joey in this one I thought
[00:44:54] [SPEAKER_03]: it let it go this was the first
[00:44:57] [SPEAKER_01]: 20 never came here when but this time
[00:44:59] [SPEAKER_01]: he plays a guy who will not screen will
[00:45:01] [SPEAKER_01]: not stop bothering
[00:45:03] [SPEAKER_01]: Zoe dash in L because they had tear masu
[00:45:05] [SPEAKER_01]: one time and that's supposed to be in
[00:45:07] [SPEAKER_02]: you window right yeah yeah they had some
[00:45:09] [SPEAKER_02]: tear and some tears and so they ate it
[00:45:11] [SPEAKER_03]: all up coffee flavored tear masu
[00:45:14] [SPEAKER_03]: he teared her masu
[00:45:17] [SPEAKER_03]: anyway
[00:45:18] [SPEAKER_03]: well bring it home they get on a train to
[00:45:20] [SPEAKER_01]: her who's Joey who you talking to
[00:45:22] [SPEAKER_03]: get on a fucking train to Harrisburg well
[00:45:24] [SPEAKER_01]: of course what happens in Philly of course
[00:45:25] [SPEAKER_01]: his best friend is John Leguzamo we forgot to
[00:45:27] [SPEAKER_01]: mention which is great third build in the
[00:45:29] [SPEAKER_01]: film John Leguzamo has a daughter John
[00:45:31] [SPEAKER_01]: was it clear he was a math teacher okay
[00:45:33] [SPEAKER_01]: because this is opening line of the film
[00:45:35] [SPEAKER_01]: god this is crazy what's going on here
[00:45:37] [SPEAKER_01]: you know what I do I just tell everyone
[00:45:38] [SPEAKER_01]: statistics statistics calm people down
[00:45:40] [SPEAKER_01]: see math can make life better it's good
[00:45:42] [SPEAKER_03]: being a math teacher I don't think Leguizamo
[00:45:44] [SPEAKER_03]: is bad in this movie but he certainly
[00:45:45] [SPEAKER_03]: saddled with a very unfortunate
[00:45:47] [SPEAKER_03]: series of lines hey people like statistics
[00:45:51] [SPEAKER_03]: this is whole fucking game you know Leguizamo
[00:45:53] [SPEAKER_03]: can really be bad like I think he's a great
[00:45:55] [SPEAKER_03]: actor but he can't be away over the top and
[00:45:57] [SPEAKER_03]: you can tell when he's falling in it
[00:45:58] [SPEAKER_01]: like no no he's pretty middling I'd say
[00:46:01] [SPEAKER_01]: but he loves statistics yes so he has
[00:46:03] [SPEAKER_01]: this theory that statistics will calm
[00:46:05] [SPEAKER_01]: people down which I'd love to see the
[00:46:07] [SPEAKER_01]: statistics on that here but I also
[00:46:09] [SPEAKER_03]: like it's one of those half-hearted
[00:46:10] [SPEAKER_03]: shumlin things we're like he does it
[00:46:12] [SPEAKER_03]: like twice like it's not enough
[00:46:13] [SPEAKER_03]: there's not enough of it that's it up
[00:46:15] [SPEAKER_03]: in his opening line that's it up he
[00:46:17] [SPEAKER_03]: does it one time and then another right
[00:46:19] [SPEAKER_03]: before he dies yeah both right before you
[00:46:21] [SPEAKER_01]: but but Leguizamo says to him he's like
[00:46:24] [SPEAKER_01]: hey I talked to my mom she lives in
[00:46:25] [SPEAKER_01]: Philadelphia they say it's safe there
[00:46:27] [SPEAKER_01]: we should go to Philadelphia they're in
[00:46:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Philadelphia you mean here during
[00:46:30] [SPEAKER_03]: New York no they're in Philadelphia
[00:46:32] [SPEAKER_03]: they're in Philadelphia they're going to
[00:46:33] [SPEAKER_03]: Harrisburg are you serious I'm serious
[00:46:35] [SPEAKER_03]: but the film opens in Central Park
[00:46:36] [SPEAKER_03]: that's because it starts in Central
[00:46:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Park it hasn't reached Philadelphia yet
[00:46:40] [SPEAKER_03]: but there's like an encroaching
[00:46:41] [SPEAKER_03]: wave and so they're gonna go to
[00:46:43] [SPEAKER_03]: Harrisburg which is in the center of
[00:46:45] [SPEAKER_02]: Pennsylvania I think the confusion is I
[00:46:47] [SPEAKER_02]: believe there are some shots of a park
[00:46:48] [SPEAKER_02]: in Philly there are also established
[00:46:51] [SPEAKER_03]: later that happens later okay that's a
[00:46:53] [SPEAKER_03]: like the second wave of okay I was
[00:46:56] [SPEAKER_01]: gonna say I thought the film was they
[00:46:57] [SPEAKER_01]: start out in New York and then it's
[00:46:59] [SPEAKER_01]: about people having to get to Philadelphia
[00:47:00] [SPEAKER_01]: because it's the only safe place left
[00:47:01] [SPEAKER_01]: would I was gonna load a lot on to
[00:47:03] [SPEAKER_01]: that no because there's don't load
[00:47:04] [SPEAKER_01]: anything I will not because it was
[00:47:06] [SPEAKER_03]: on the news that's basically like
[00:47:08] [SPEAKER_03]: this sort of you know the dots like
[00:47:09] [SPEAKER_03]: it's going from the east out yes yes and
[00:47:14] [SPEAKER_03]: John like was Ammo is about seven years
[00:47:16] [SPEAKER_03]: older than Mark Wahlberg who's about nine
[00:47:19] [SPEAKER_03]: years older than Zoe DeChanel if not
[00:47:20] [SPEAKER_03]: more and doesn't look good no you can
[00:47:23] [SPEAKER_03]: pull that off sometimes but Zoe DeChanel
[00:47:25] [SPEAKER_03]: looks way too young to be his wife
[00:47:26] [SPEAKER_03]: and like was Ammo looks like too old
[00:47:29] [SPEAKER_03]: to be like his best friend the whole
[00:47:32] [SPEAKER_03]: things weird and but yet they all get
[00:47:36] [SPEAKER_03]: on a train to Harrisburg they have
[00:47:37] [SPEAKER_02]: chemistry those two as friends and
[00:47:40] [SPEAKER_02]: Joey DeChanel nobody has any chemistry
[00:47:42] [SPEAKER_03]: what are you talking about I think this
[00:47:45] [SPEAKER_03]: is that Tiger has chemistry with the
[00:47:47] [SPEAKER_03]: arms he rips off it's about it I think
[00:47:49] [SPEAKER_01]: at the end of every scene with like a
[00:47:51] [SPEAKER_01]: Zamawn Wahlberg they high-fived each
[00:47:52] [SPEAKER_01]: other went like what a fucking bunch
[00:47:54] [SPEAKER_01]: of dweebs right like it feels like
[00:47:56] [SPEAKER_01]: both of them things their characters
[00:47:57] [SPEAKER_03]: are losers right was Ammo definitely
[00:48:00] [SPEAKER_03]: does you can tell like yeah he's
[00:48:03] [SPEAKER_03]: like I'm playing this guy's a bit
[00:48:04] [SPEAKER_01]: of a nabish can I throw out just a
[00:48:06] [SPEAKER_01]: bit too obvious can I throw out a quick
[00:48:08] [SPEAKER_01]: I need to be trivia fact yes you this
[00:48:11] [SPEAKER_01]: movie was shot completely in sequence
[00:48:13] [SPEAKER_01]: which is something he's done before
[00:48:15] [SPEAKER_01]: right he does that yeah but it's it's
[00:48:17] [SPEAKER_03]: very unusual and it's expensive I think
[00:48:20] [SPEAKER_03]: it is although this movie does have
[00:48:22] [SPEAKER_03]: a progression that maybe that made it
[00:48:25] [SPEAKER_03]: easier because like we don't ever
[00:48:27] [SPEAKER_03]: cut back to Philly or whatever you
[00:48:29] [SPEAKER_03]: know they're on the road yeah so I
[00:48:31] [SPEAKER_01]: suppose that made it easier yes so
[00:48:34] [SPEAKER_01]: they all meet up at a train station
[00:48:37] [SPEAKER_01]: like is Ammo his daughter so we dash
[00:48:39] [SPEAKER_01]: now mark Wahlberg Mark Wahlberg right
[00:48:42] [SPEAKER_01]: after leg is on the thing about
[00:48:44] [SPEAKER_01]: fucking statistics was like by the way
[00:48:46] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm on I've been fighting and he's like
[00:48:47] [SPEAKER_01]: what's going on and he's like I don't
[00:48:49] [SPEAKER_01]: know marriage isn't going well and he's
[00:48:50] [SPEAKER_01]: like well dude I mean to tell you
[00:48:52] [SPEAKER_01]: this since it happened but when you
[00:48:53] [SPEAKER_01]: got married I walked in on her in
[00:48:55] [SPEAKER_01]: the changing room so in her dress
[00:48:57] [SPEAKER_01]: she was crying and then she looked
[00:48:59] [SPEAKER_01]: up at me and she gave me a look
[00:49:01] [SPEAKER_03]: news that there are basically like
[00:49:03] [SPEAKER_01]: chemical attacks in New York that's
[00:49:05] [SPEAKER_01]: telling him the statistics calm everyone
[00:49:06] [SPEAKER_01]: down then he tells his friend something
[00:49:08] [SPEAKER_01]: to freak him out and he goes she looked
[00:49:10] [SPEAKER_01]: me in the eyes as you gave me that
[00:49:11] [SPEAKER_01]: look and I said what kind of look and
[00:49:13] [SPEAKER_01]: it goes that look like you're not
[00:49:15] [SPEAKER_01]: ready for what you're about to jump into
[00:49:18] [SPEAKER_03]: it's it's it's it's so weird
[00:49:21] [SPEAKER_03]: that you immediately think he's
[00:49:22] [SPEAKER_03]: talking about a different character
[00:49:23] [SPEAKER_03]: like there's no way that he's
[00:49:25] [SPEAKER_03]: talking about his wife right right
[00:49:27] [SPEAKER_03]: like it's some other story he's
[00:49:28] [SPEAKER_03]: telling is that what this is
[00:49:29] [SPEAKER_03]: especially because she's called Alma
[00:49:31] [SPEAKER_03]: which is I mean kind of a Hispanic
[00:49:34] [SPEAKER_01]: name okay I looked it up it has become
[00:49:36] [SPEAKER_01]: a spanish name but it's actually I
[00:49:37] [SPEAKER_03]: think like Dutch in Oregon alright so
[00:49:38] [SPEAKER_03]: that's fine but I mean nonetheless it
[00:49:41] [SPEAKER_03]: is weird because John Lee was almost
[00:49:42] [SPEAKER_03]: kid is called Jess and that is the
[00:49:44] [SPEAKER_03]: name of Zoe Deschanel's character on

[00:50:53] [SPEAKER_01]: next morning and then she's like can I
[00:50:55] [SPEAKER_01]: talk to you for a second pulls
[00:50:56] [SPEAKER_01]: Wahlberg aside it's like why do you tell

[00:51:05] [SPEAKER_01]: leg as I'm when she's like um I should
[00:51:07] [SPEAKER_01]: just get on the train now because we're
[00:51:09] [SPEAKER_01]: not gonna sit next to each other
[00:51:10] [SPEAKER_01]: anyway right and easy have all the
[00:51:13] [SPEAKER_03]: chemistry yeah like people who've been
[00:51:15] [SPEAKER_03]: on one Tinder day like they have no
[00:51:16] [SPEAKER_03]: chemistry at all
[00:51:18] [SPEAKER_03]: you're talking Wahlberg and Siddish
[00:51:20] [SPEAKER_03]: know obviously like was how I can I
[00:51:23] [SPEAKER_01]: tell you why I think it's secretly
[00:51:24] [SPEAKER_01]: a really good performance not can I
[00:51:26] [SPEAKER_01]: tell you why yes I can tell you it's not
[00:51:28] [SPEAKER_01]: though because I think she's playing
[00:51:30] [SPEAKER_01]: someone I think they are a couple who
[00:51:33] [SPEAKER_01]: never should have been married in the
[00:51:34] [SPEAKER_01]: first place doesn't make any sense I
[00:51:36] [SPEAKER_01]: think whereas most drama and films are
[00:51:38] [SPEAKER_01]: someone trying to save their marriage
[00:51:39] [SPEAKER_01]: this film is like these two people
[00:51:41] [SPEAKER_01]: liked each other enough that they
[00:51:43] [SPEAKER_01]: thought it was a good idea to get
[00:51:44] [SPEAKER_01]: married now they realize they have
[00:51:45] [SPEAKER_01]: nothing in common but they find that
[00:51:49] [SPEAKER_01]: they love each other I'm ignoring the
[00:51:50] [SPEAKER_03]: ending of the film your argument is
[00:51:52] [SPEAKER_03]: false because they don't even have any
[00:51:54] [SPEAKER_03]: like knowledge of each other that's
[00:51:56] [SPEAKER_01]: what's so weird about the movie I think
[00:51:57] [SPEAKER_01]: she's like a manic pixie dream girl that
[00:51:59] [SPEAKER_01]: he fetishized and now he's like
[00:52:00] [SPEAKER_01]: domesticated her and he finds her boring
[00:52:02] [SPEAKER_03]: now you're reading way too much into
[00:52:03] [SPEAKER_03]: this way too much into zoe dish probably
[00:52:05] [SPEAKER_03]: I'm just trying to find something in
[00:52:06] [SPEAKER_03]: this fucking movie is lost at sea and
[00:52:09] [SPEAKER_03]: like maybe that's because shaman's not
[00:52:11] [SPEAKER_03]: great director of actors character
[00:52:13] [SPEAKER_03]: character I mean characters not come
[00:52:15] [SPEAKER_03]: on the characters basically the
[00:52:18] [SPEAKER_03]: characters arc in the story for
[00:52:20] [SPEAKER_03]: performance is you know she was
[00:52:22] [SPEAKER_03]: feeling a bit touchy about the
[00:52:24] [SPEAKER_03]: marriage she had like a not even
[00:52:25] [SPEAKER_03]: a dalliance but like she entertained
[00:52:27] [SPEAKER_02]: a dalliance went on a date to her
[00:52:29] [SPEAKER_02]: credit I'll say this what she is what
[00:52:31] [SPEAKER_02]: successful about the performance is as
[00:52:34] [SPEAKER_02]: being on the receiving end of like
[00:52:37] [SPEAKER_02]: having issues with the girlfriend I
[00:52:40] [SPEAKER_02]: could not tell you what was going on
[00:52:42] [SPEAKER_02]: in her head
[00:52:44] [SPEAKER_02]: she's just she's a close book yeah
[00:52:46] [SPEAKER_02]: I have no idea you can't figure out
[00:52:48] [SPEAKER_02]: there's that yeah maybe she's just
[00:52:50] [SPEAKER_03]: supposed to be 100% inscrutable
[00:52:53] [SPEAKER_03]: but yeah I don't think so because the
[00:52:55] [SPEAKER_03]: movie yeah it's like she's had this
[00:52:57] [SPEAKER_03]: dalliance
[00:52:57] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah confesses it right early early
[00:53:00] [SPEAKER_03]: and then that's kind of they just kind
[00:53:03] [SPEAKER_03]: of figure out in there it's better
[00:53:05] [SPEAKER_03]: a little bit I mean I don't see that
[00:53:07] [SPEAKER_03]: happy by the end of it I wish I was
[00:53:08] [SPEAKER_03]: this doesn't have there's a lot to
[00:53:10] [SPEAKER_03]: this movie no I think it's his worst
[00:53:12] [SPEAKER_03]: film
[00:53:12] [SPEAKER_03]: I mean I mean lady in the water is I
[00:53:15] [SPEAKER_03]: haven't seen the last year but it's
[00:53:17] [SPEAKER_03]: probably worse than this but I mean
[00:53:18] [SPEAKER_03]: oh yeah but you know I mean but the
[00:53:21] [SPEAKER_03]: thing about it is like it's actually
[00:53:22] [SPEAKER_03]: not as bad as lady in the water but
[00:53:23] [SPEAKER_03]: it's just such a struggle for movie like
[00:53:26] [SPEAKER_03]: after those opening scenes it's just
[00:53:27] [SPEAKER_01]: coming what he said in interviews that
[00:53:29] [SPEAKER_01]: his goal was to make the best be
[00:53:30] [SPEAKER_01]: movie out that's just horseshock okay
[00:53:32] [SPEAKER_01]: now this is what I don't like about
[00:53:33] [SPEAKER_01]: that sort of thinking right it's him
[00:53:35] [SPEAKER_01]: saying like oh my goal is just to make
[00:53:38] [SPEAKER_01]: the best bad movie of all time and
[00:53:39] [SPEAKER_01]: if you don't get that you think
[00:53:40] [SPEAKER_01]: it's bad than your stupid because
[00:53:41] [SPEAKER_01]: you understand I'm trying to be bad
[00:53:42] [SPEAKER_01]: on purpose
[00:53:43] [SPEAKER_01]: like which my theory is fucking don't
[00:53:46] [SPEAKER_01]: run a race with your legs tied
[00:53:48] [SPEAKER_01]: together like if you can fucking
[00:53:50] [SPEAKER_01]: direct a movie make the best movie you
[00:53:51] [SPEAKER_03]: can doing that no but he's not doing
[00:53:53] [SPEAKER_03]: that that's just some shit you say in
[00:53:55] [SPEAKER_03]: an interview yeah like oh this is be
[00:53:56] [SPEAKER_03]: movie he also compared this movie to
[00:53:58] [SPEAKER_03]: the birds and invasion of the body
[00:54:00] [SPEAKER_03]: snatchers which are two of the most
[00:54:01] [SPEAKER_03]: famous suspense films ever fucking
[00:54:03] [SPEAKER_01]: movies are people are playing at the
[00:54:04] [SPEAKER_01]: top of the intelligence they're not
[00:54:06] [SPEAKER_03]: be movies are a movie what a B movie
[00:54:08] [SPEAKER_03]: is is like a cheap 50s Hollywood type
[00:54:12] [SPEAKER_03]: movie like the visit would play like
[00:54:14] [SPEAKER_03]: like the visit yeah that would play
[00:54:16] [SPEAKER_03]: like sort of you know with another
[00:54:17] [SPEAKER_03]: movie kind of short right and was
[00:54:20] [SPEAKER_03]: just kind of you know cheap sexy fun
[00:54:21] [SPEAKER_03]: and was big and loud and over the top
[00:54:23] [SPEAKER_03]: because you were just trying to get
[00:54:24] [SPEAKER_03]: people stay in their seats was made
[00:54:26] [SPEAKER_01]: fast you know it's just like a fun
[00:54:28] [SPEAKER_01]: silly thing but that's the thing
[00:54:29] [SPEAKER_01]: because it was the second movie on a
[00:54:31] [SPEAKER_01]: lineup it's literally a B picture
[00:54:32] [SPEAKER_01]: after a picture you want people to
[00:54:34] [SPEAKER_01]: stay in the theater buy more popcorn
[00:54:35] [SPEAKER_01]: you got big flash you have sex you
[00:54:38] [SPEAKER_01]: have violence you have fun yeah
[00:54:39] [SPEAKER_03]: twist you know and this is like so
[00:54:41] [SPEAKER_03]: it's just this way that people misuse
[00:54:43] [SPEAKER_03]: that term be movie this movie was
[00:54:45] [SPEAKER_03]: made for 50 million bucks it's not a
[00:54:47] [SPEAKER_03]: be movie no against of him saying
[00:54:48] [SPEAKER_01]: the stars people don't get it it's I
[00:54:50] [SPEAKER_01]: pretty much was just trying to make the
[00:54:52] [SPEAKER_01]: best be movie ever and that's what I
[00:54:53] [SPEAKER_01]: did
[00:54:54] [SPEAKER_01]: it's like you can't tell me that you
[00:54:55] [SPEAKER_01]: made the best be movie ever we tell you
[00:54:58] [SPEAKER_01]: that and we have told you that you
[00:54:59] [SPEAKER_01]: did not
[00:54:59] [SPEAKER_01]: it's maybe was trying to say he was
[00:55:01] [SPEAKER_01]: trying to make the best be movie ever
[00:55:02] [SPEAKER_01]: in that it's the best movie in which
[00:55:04] [SPEAKER_01]: the inciting incident is bees dying
[00:55:06] [SPEAKER_01]: but even then I would say that be
[00:55:07] [SPEAKER_01]: movie is better than the happening
[00:55:09] [SPEAKER_01]: they died I think that's why the
[00:55:11] [SPEAKER_01]: controversy is that there the
[00:55:12] [SPEAKER_01]: honey is making them weak so they
[00:55:13] [SPEAKER_01]: sue to get the rights to their
[00:55:15] [SPEAKER_01]: honey back from the people
[00:55:16] [SPEAKER_01]: I think that's the plot of the movie
[00:55:18] [SPEAKER_03]: who was it who told him to make the
[00:55:20] [SPEAKER_03]: movie some me and cats and birds
[00:55:22] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah was like
[00:55:22] [SPEAKER_03]: like I think sign for literally just
[00:55:25] [SPEAKER_03]: said the shit to cats and bird a party
[00:55:26] [SPEAKER_03]: cats were was like it's a movie we're
[00:55:28] [SPEAKER_01]: making a movie cats and bird wanted
[00:55:30] [SPEAKER_01]: sign felt to do an animated movie
[00:55:31] [SPEAKER_01]: and he was like Jerry come on you
[00:55:33] [SPEAKER_01]: gotta do an M.M.
[00:55:33] [SPEAKER_01]: movie is like I don't have any ideas
[00:55:35] [SPEAKER_01]: and he's like just cast on you must
[00:55:37] [SPEAKER_01]: have some idea he's like well I
[00:55:39] [SPEAKER_01]: thought it'd be funny if you call
[00:55:40] [SPEAKER_01]: the movie baby boy and had Bayes in
[00:55:41] [SPEAKER_01]: it he's a green light done
[00:55:43] [SPEAKER_01]: like that was the story he just
[00:55:45] [SPEAKER_01]: wanted us Seinfeld movies so badly
[00:55:48] [SPEAKER_01]: anyway anyway so
[00:55:51] [SPEAKER_03]: but let's get let's get through the
[00:55:52] [SPEAKER_03]: plot of the happening okay they get
[00:55:54] [SPEAKER_03]: on a train on a train for a little bit
[00:55:56] [SPEAKER_03]: the train stops we lost communication
[00:55:57] [SPEAKER_03]: in the middle of nowhere and the
[00:55:59] [SPEAKER_03]: others is kind of good scene where
[00:56:01] [SPEAKER_03]: Walberg is like why'd you stop
[00:56:02] [SPEAKER_03]: what's the matter and all the train
[00:56:04] [SPEAKER_03]: conductors are together with their
[00:56:06] [SPEAKER_03]: hats and eventually they meant like
[00:56:07] [SPEAKER_03]: we there's no contact with the
[00:56:09] [SPEAKER_03]: outside world and mark Walberg says
[00:56:11] [SPEAKER_01]: with whom because we lost contact
[00:56:14] [SPEAKER_01]: and goes with home with everyone
[00:56:16] [SPEAKER_01]: the whole world so with home
[00:56:20] [SPEAKER_03]: at this point John like was on was
[00:56:23] [SPEAKER_03]: really worried about his wife I
[00:56:25] [SPEAKER_03]: believe yes so he decides to go
[00:56:28] [SPEAKER_03]: off in search of her like kind of
[00:56:30] [SPEAKER_03]: into the dangers though right that's
[00:56:32] [SPEAKER_01]: the idea well they go to a diner the
[00:56:34] [SPEAKER_01]: diner gets a news report saying it
[00:56:36] [SPEAKER_01]: spreading across the city that's
[00:56:38] [SPEAKER_03]: is that's where they see the video
[00:56:39] [SPEAKER_03]: on their phone of a guy getting
[00:56:40] [SPEAKER_03]: ripped to shreds at a zoo he
[00:56:42] [SPEAKER_01]: walks into a lion's cage and he
[00:56:43] [SPEAKER_01]: holds one of the worst scenes it's
[00:56:45] [SPEAKER_01]: the worst version of he's trying to
[00:56:47] [SPEAKER_01]: remake the birthday party scene from
[00:56:48] [SPEAKER_01]: signs I know like you're watching the
[00:56:50] [SPEAKER_01]: video and you can't really see what's
[00:56:51] [SPEAKER_01]: going on but then like it's like oh
[00:56:53] [SPEAKER_01]: you're behind someone's head and then
[00:56:54] [SPEAKER_01]: when you can see it's just a guy
[00:56:55] [SPEAKER_01]: walking around with like a bloody
[00:56:57] [SPEAKER_01]: stump that looks like a fucking
[00:56:59] [SPEAKER_01]: SNL schedule looks like that the Phil
[00:57:00] [SPEAKER_01]: Hartman as the weightlifter you know
[00:57:03] [SPEAKER_01]: saying where his arms fall off and
[00:57:04] [SPEAKER_01]: it's just like ketchup shooting out
[00:57:05] [SPEAKER_03]: the other thing that doesn't make
[00:57:07] [SPEAKER_03]: sense is the birthday party
[00:57:10] [SPEAKER_03]: scene in science is shot exactly as
[00:57:12] [SPEAKER_03]: that would be shot yeah where it's like
[00:57:14] [SPEAKER_03]: kind of panicked this someone is
[00:57:15] [SPEAKER_03]: watching someone get torn to pieces
[00:57:18] [SPEAKER_03]: by a fucking animal yeah and it's just
[00:57:20] [SPEAKER_03]: holding their camera steady right on
[00:57:22] [SPEAKER_01]: but there's one moment where the
[00:57:23] [SPEAKER_01]: camera goes down for a little bit
[00:57:25] [SPEAKER_01]: and he's like oh my god oh my god
[00:57:26] [SPEAKER_01]: and then he lifts it back up again
[00:57:27] [SPEAKER_01]: right just to kind of make the
[00:57:29] [SPEAKER_01]: transition between violence yeah yeah
[00:57:31] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah yeah it's it's crappy it's
[00:57:33] [SPEAKER_03]: terrible and like this point the
[00:57:35] [SPEAKER_01]: movie sucks yeah right we agree yeah
[00:57:37] [SPEAKER_01]: like it's almost sees it spreading
[00:57:38] [SPEAKER_01]: to Princeton which is where his wife
[00:57:39] [SPEAKER_01]: is the owner of the diner is like
[00:57:41] [SPEAKER_01]: we all got to get out of here the
[00:57:42] [SPEAKER_01]: electricity goes out at the diner
[00:57:44] [SPEAKER_01]: suddenly yeah so they all start
[00:57:46] [SPEAKER_01]: trying to hitch rides alright so here's
[00:57:48] [SPEAKER_03]: here that's what I was getting to yeah
[00:57:50] [SPEAKER_03]: like was on my decides to go into the
[00:57:52] [SPEAKER_03]: dangers now like once again a prince
[00:57:54] [SPEAKER_03]: and get us why not run away go in
[00:57:56] [SPEAKER_03]: right with a bunch of people who are
[00:57:57] [SPEAKER_03]: in like a Jeep yeah and and it's
[00:58:00] [SPEAKER_03]: and it's like my daughter he gives
[00:58:02] [SPEAKER_03]: Walberg his daughter yeah it's a
[00:58:04] [SPEAKER_01]: disastrous decision they go in a car
[00:58:06] [SPEAKER_01]: with Frank Colson who's a great
[00:58:07] [SPEAKER_03]: character Frank Colson who was in
[00:58:09] [SPEAKER_01]: the village yes he plays a plant
[00:58:11] [SPEAKER_01]: nursery owner which he explains the
[00:58:12] [SPEAKER_01]: second he starts talking hey my wife
[00:58:15] [SPEAKER_01]: and I have a car we have extra seats
[00:58:16] [SPEAKER_01]: we run a plant nursery we just got to
[00:58:18] [SPEAKER_01]: go back and get some plants but if you
[00:58:19] [SPEAKER_01]: want to come with us as we go get the
[00:58:20] [SPEAKER_01]: plants you can come with us like he
[00:58:22] [SPEAKER_01]: just immediately outlines everything
[00:58:24] [SPEAKER_01]: you need to know about him for the
[00:58:26] [SPEAKER_03]: sake of the pot he does and Frank
[00:58:28] [SPEAKER_03]: Colson's weird-looking yeah and this
[00:58:31] [SPEAKER_03]: movie makes him more weird-looking
[00:58:32] [SPEAKER_03]: he's got like a beard and shit and
[00:58:33] [SPEAKER_03]: so I think you're watching and thinking
[00:58:35] [SPEAKER_03]: like oh this guy's trouble he's gonna
[00:58:37] [SPEAKER_03]: be the Crete no no no no not at all but
[00:58:40] [SPEAKER_03]: whatever but it doesn't even feel like
[00:58:42] [SPEAKER_01]: it was a conscious red herring it feels
[00:58:43] [SPEAKER_01]: like Shyamalan didn't realize that the
[00:58:45] [SPEAKER_01]: way he positioned him in the movie would
[00:58:47] [SPEAKER_01]: scare people would make them a nerve
[00:58:49] [SPEAKER_03]: it's hard to know but anyway
[00:58:50] [SPEAKER_03]: Walberg Deschanel daughter daughter
[00:58:54] [SPEAKER_03]: Jess who's played by Ashlyn
[00:58:56] [SPEAKER_03]: Sanchez yeah they get in a car with
[00:58:59] [SPEAKER_03]: plant nursery people to go like
[00:59:01] [SPEAKER_03]: further west and now they just have a
[00:59:03] [SPEAKER_01]: daughter they have his best friend's
[00:59:05] [SPEAKER_01]: daughter and there's this scene
[00:59:07] [SPEAKER_01]: Ashlyn Sanchez but it's a little girl
[00:59:09] [SPEAKER_03]: from crash that's the other oh really
[00:59:10] [SPEAKER_01]: she's in yeah which is Michael Pena's
[00:59:12] [SPEAKER_01]: daughter yeah she's in the best you
[00:59:14] [SPEAKER_01]: know yeah very good and I believe she
[00:59:15] [SPEAKER_03]: played one of smith's kids in the
[00:59:17] [SPEAKER_03]: West Wing you know smith's nice a
[00:59:20] [SPEAKER_03]: pro podcast yeah I know about smiths
[00:59:22] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah definitely yeah smith smiths so
[00:59:26] [SPEAKER_03]: where I'm totally lost my train of
[00:59:27] [SPEAKER_03]: thought this movie so boring
[00:59:28] [SPEAKER_03]: um oh yeah they just go no no there's
[00:59:30] [SPEAKER_03]: that scene where like was almost like
[00:59:32] [SPEAKER_03]: tell you statistics right that's my
[00:59:34] [SPEAKER_03]: favorite scene the entire film such a
[00:59:35] [SPEAKER_01]: weird they drive into Princeton and
[00:59:38] [SPEAKER_01]: they're like why are these cars parked
[00:59:40] [SPEAKER_01]: in the side of the road where these
[00:59:41] [SPEAKER_01]: ladders and they look and all the like
[00:59:43] [SPEAKER_01]: the fucking like like what I don't know
[00:59:47] [SPEAKER_01]: all these guys have just hung
[00:59:48] [SPEAKER_01]: themselves with like hoses from the
[00:59:51] [SPEAKER_03]: tree it makes no sense because they
[00:59:52] [SPEAKER_03]: are like 40 feet off the ground
[00:59:54] [SPEAKER_03]: it's like how the fuck did they get
[00:59:55] [SPEAKER_03]: up on those trees but that will all
[00:59:57] [SPEAKER_01]: the ladders are there is the idea
[00:59:58] [SPEAKER_01]: there's supposed to be repairmen
[00:59:59] [SPEAKER_01]: alright so I got a landscaper their
[01:00:00] [SPEAKER_01]: landscape or whatever it's a bunch of
[01:00:02] [SPEAKER_01]: trimming there's a bunch of trucks and
[01:00:04] [SPEAKER_01]: then their bunch of ladders as they
[01:00:06] [SPEAKER_01]: drive further they see all these guys
[01:00:07] [SPEAKER_03]: hung up by the hoses I mean it's kind of
[01:00:09] [SPEAKER_03]: scary he's got some good images
[01:00:10] [SPEAKER_03]: you know he kind of did that in the
[01:00:12] [SPEAKER_03]: sixth sense yeah he already did the
[01:00:14] [SPEAKER_03]: like hanging people yeah yeah I don't
[01:00:16] [SPEAKER_03]: know like it's fine though hanging is
[01:00:18] [SPEAKER_03]: creepy that always is always crazy
[01:00:20] [SPEAKER_03]: so it's a creepy image so there's a
[01:00:21] [SPEAKER_03]: teenage girl in the car and she's
[01:00:23] [SPEAKER_01]: freaking out her parents who are in the
[01:00:25] [SPEAKER_01]: car with her doing nothing to calm
[01:00:26] [SPEAKER_01]: her down and leg is on my from
[01:00:27] [SPEAKER_01]: shotgun turns around and is like you
[01:00:30] [SPEAKER_01]: know calm people down statistics let me
[01:00:32] [SPEAKER_01]: tell you some statistics and then like
[01:00:34] [SPEAKER_01]: gives them this isn't okay scene and
[01:00:35] [SPEAKER_01]: then he does the game with the with the
[01:00:37] [SPEAKER_01]: dollar because if I give you a penny
[01:00:38] [SPEAKER_01]: the first day of the month and every day
[01:00:40] [SPEAKER_01]: I double it how much money do you have by
[01:00:42] [SPEAKER_01]: the end of the month and she's like oh my
[01:00:44] [SPEAKER_01]: god I don't like that people and he's
[01:00:45] [SPEAKER_01]: like just focus just focus work on the
[01:00:47] [SPEAKER_01]: question math calms people down people
[01:00:49] [SPEAKER_01]: like numbers and she's like the wrong
[01:00:51] [SPEAKER_02]: answer but they're also cutting to
[01:00:53] [SPEAKER_02]: that shot of the yeah what he notices
[01:00:55] [SPEAKER_01]: that I mean good idea by the way
[01:00:57] [SPEAKER_01]: guys the windows are trying to stuff
[01:00:59] [SPEAKER_01]: the windows of clothing they drove
[01:01:00] [SPEAKER_03]: it's an airborne disease and they drove
[01:01:03] [SPEAKER_03]: in a fabric Jeep like you know like
[01:01:06] [SPEAKER_03]: come on yeah like fucking Jeep Wrangler
[01:01:09] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah and yeah he notices a tear in the
[01:01:11] [SPEAKER_03]: roof and so going with it I don't
[01:01:14] [SPEAKER_03]: understand what he's over but that
[01:01:16] [SPEAKER_03]: was trying to chill her out yeah well
[01:01:18] [SPEAKER_03]: but the thing the thing that is both
[01:01:20] [SPEAKER_03]: good and bad about the gimmick is like
[01:01:23] [SPEAKER_03]: it doesn't you know when attacks each
[01:01:25] [SPEAKER_03]: other that's like the central thing you
[01:01:27] [SPEAKER_03]: kill yourself right which is kind of a
[01:01:29] [SPEAKER_03]: problem in this movie because it means
[01:01:31] [SPEAKER_03]: that there's no like threat the only
[01:01:33] [SPEAKER_03]: threat is wind yeah so like it's not like
[01:01:36] [SPEAKER_03]: you can be like worried like oh
[01:01:38] [SPEAKER_03]: Deschanel's gonna get away for this and
[01:01:40] [SPEAKER_03]: turn on me but it is also kind of cool
[01:01:43] [SPEAKER_03]: that that doesn't like it it's but it
[01:01:45] [SPEAKER_03]: doesn't work I mean it mow it events
[01:01:46] [SPEAKER_01]: ends up hollow I mean it's not even
[01:01:48] [SPEAKER_01]: out that worth going through the rest
[01:01:50] [SPEAKER_01]: of the film will go through a couple
[01:01:51] [SPEAKER_01]: key details this is the big thing
[01:01:53] [SPEAKER_01]: what you brought up that I want to
[01:01:54] [SPEAKER_01]: talk about about why this move is
[01:01:55] [SPEAKER_01]: kind of like fundamentally dramatically
[01:01:56] [SPEAKER_01]: inert with the way it's set up but
[01:01:58] [SPEAKER_01]: I just have to read this reminder to be
[01:01:59] [SPEAKER_01]: trivia the exact answer to Julian's
[01:02:01] [SPEAKER_01]: math riddle with the average month having
[01:02:03] [SPEAKER_01]: 30 days is ten million dollars seven
[01:02:06] [SPEAKER_01]: hundred thirty seven thousand four hundred
[01:02:07] [SPEAKER_01]: eighteen twenty three cents the answer is
[01:02:09] [SPEAKER_01]: not ten million seven hundred thirty
[01:02:11] [SPEAKER_01]: seven thousand four hundred literally
[01:02:12] [SPEAKER_01]: no one knows you're just really in is
[01:02:14] [SPEAKER_01]: asking about the total sum of the
[01:02:15] [SPEAKER_01]: amounts from all days and every amount
[01:02:17] [SPEAKER_01]: I'm taking your phone even number
[01:02:19] [SPEAKER_01]: except the amount on the first day
[01:02:20] [SPEAKER_01]: one cent therefore the total sum must
[01:02:22] [SPEAKER_01]: be an odd number of cents in addition
[01:02:23] [SPEAKER_01]: when the month of question is 31
[01:02:25] [SPEAKER_01]: days then 10 million seven hundred
[01:02:26] [SPEAKER_01]: thirty seven thousand four hundred and
[01:02:27] [SPEAKER_01]: eighteen dollars twenty four cents will
[01:02:29] [SPEAKER_01]: be amount the 31st day in this total
[01:02:30] [SPEAKER_01]: sum after 31 days would be take a guess
[01:02:33] [SPEAKER_03]: I don't care are you gonna cut this out
[01:02:35] [SPEAKER_03]: 21 million four hundred seventy four
[01:02:36] [SPEAKER_03]: thousand eight hundred thirty six
[01:02:38] [SPEAKER_03]: dollars forty seven cents I think I
[01:02:39] [SPEAKER_03]: Ben please cut that out I just dropped
[01:02:41] [SPEAKER_01]: the phone no that's in a hundred
[01:02:42] [SPEAKER_01]: percent that was really that's in a
[01:02:43] [SPEAKER_01]: hundred percent people wouldn't like
[01:02:45] [SPEAKER_01]: people will love it but anyway
[01:02:47] [SPEAKER_01]: let's move on okay so movies like this
[01:02:50] [SPEAKER_01]: where the threat is a force in it is
[01:02:53] [SPEAKER_01]: in let it out it's no yes it's where
[01:02:57] [SPEAKER_03]: the day the day after tomorrow I'd come
[01:02:59] [SPEAKER_03]: out a couple years was 2004
[01:03:01] [SPEAKER_03]: was four years earlier right before
[01:03:03] [SPEAKER_03]: right yes and that's the movie where
[01:03:04] [SPEAKER_03]: people outrun frost yes like ice
[01:03:08] [SPEAKER_03]: right some cold movies like this where
[01:03:11] [SPEAKER_01]: there is some sort of attack that is
[01:03:12] [SPEAKER_01]: threatening humanity but is a natural
[01:03:14] [SPEAKER_01]: occurrence it is hard if it's not like
[01:03:16] [SPEAKER_01]: an alien there's not like a fucking
[01:03:18] [SPEAKER_01]: like manifestation you know like a
[01:03:20] [SPEAKER_01]: physicalization of the enemy that you
[01:03:22] [SPEAKER_01]: can conquer there's not a way to
[01:03:24] [SPEAKER_01]: reverse the effects because it always
[01:03:26] [SPEAKER_01]: just is like well I can't believe that
[01:03:28] [SPEAKER_01]: this guy could stop this and if it just
[01:03:30] [SPEAKER_01]: stops suddenly then it feels like a
[01:03:32] [SPEAKER_01]: cheat like what do you do so the movie
[01:03:34] [SPEAKER_01]: just becomes them trying to outrun it
[01:03:35] [SPEAKER_01]: it takes so long cuz fucking what's
[01:03:38] [SPEAKER_01]: his name colison Frank Colson early in
[01:03:40] [SPEAKER_01]: the film is like you know plans to
[01:03:41] [SPEAKER_01]: talk to each other yeah plants like
[01:03:43] [SPEAKER_03]: he's got info don't worry yeah this
[01:03:45] [SPEAKER_03]: sort of what's happening and they go
[01:03:47] [SPEAKER_03]: it's some sort of natural reaction from
[01:03:48] [SPEAKER_03]: plants like plants can they're
[01:03:50] [SPEAKER_01]: fighting back they don't like how we
[01:03:51] [SPEAKER_01]: treated us they can talk to each other
[01:03:53] [SPEAKER_03]: this and that you know this I should say
[01:03:55] [SPEAKER_03]: one problem with this movie is that it's
[01:03:58] [SPEAKER_03]: guy guess it's an environmental movie
[01:03:59] [SPEAKER_03]: but there's no like other
[01:04:00] [SPEAKER_03]: environmental message to it it's not
[01:04:02] [SPEAKER_03]: like we see like construction sites
[01:04:04] [SPEAKER_03]: right or like logging or yeah it's just
[01:04:07] [SPEAKER_02]: sort of like a representative for the
[01:04:09] [SPEAKER_02]: plants right you are talking and
[01:04:11] [SPEAKER_02]: addressing he might say like yeah I
[01:04:13] [SPEAKER_03]: speak for the trees yeah you might say
[01:04:15] [SPEAKER_01]: that yeah I and then he kicks himself
[01:04:17] [SPEAKER_03]: in the butt goes over there and he
[01:04:18] [SPEAKER_03]: could be played by like former M. Night
[01:04:20] [SPEAKER_03]: Shaman cast member tova felcha yes you
[01:04:23] [SPEAKER_03]: know right like I mean if anyone's
[01:04:25] [SPEAKER_03]: listen to the happening at Lady in the
[01:04:26] [SPEAKER_03]: Water episode you know it almost feels
[01:04:28] [SPEAKER_01]: like this film was inspired by his
[01:04:29] [SPEAKER_01]: conversations with tova felcha and then
[01:04:31] [SPEAKER_01]: he completely misinterpreted everything
[01:04:33] [SPEAKER_03]: he's inspired he listened to the
[01:04:35] [SPEAKER_03]: episode about Lady in the water in
[01:04:37] [SPEAKER_03]: the future in the trial back in time
[01:04:38] [SPEAKER_01]: was like you know what's gonna work
[01:04:40] [SPEAKER_01]: this is short but I have to throw
[01:04:42] [SPEAKER_01]: another indb fact because it makes as
[01:04:43] [SPEAKER_01]: much sense as what you just said
[01:04:44] [SPEAKER_03]: you totally throw this out and we're
[01:04:47] [SPEAKER_03]: totally cutting the other thing that
[01:04:48] [SPEAKER_03]: you did and 100 both of them are 100%
[01:04:51] [SPEAKER_01]: in towards the end of the movie I'ma
[01:04:53] [SPEAKER_01]: put something in Jess's backpack the
[01:04:54] [SPEAKER_01]: backpack has a picture from avatar the
[01:04:56] [SPEAKER_01]: last airbender okay on the next scene
[01:04:59] [SPEAKER_01]: just boards a school bus with the
[01:05:01] [SPEAKER_01]: number 2010 on its hood this is an
[01:05:03] [SPEAKER_01]: illusion to the last airbender which
[01:05:05] [SPEAKER_01]: was released in 2010 and also directed
[01:05:06] [SPEAKER_01]: by a night shamblon so this person is
[01:05:09] [SPEAKER_01]: saying that he put the year of the
[01:05:12] [SPEAKER_01]: movie and the cartoon show that the
[01:05:15] [SPEAKER_01]: movie was based off of in the movie
[01:05:16] [SPEAKER_01]: even though he had not yet decided to
[01:05:18] [SPEAKER_01]: make that movie that he was calling his
[01:05:21] [SPEAKER_01]: shots Babe Ruth style and was like I'm
[01:05:24] [SPEAKER_01]: gonna put a reference like he went into
[01:05:26] [SPEAKER_01]: the future then jumped into the past
[01:05:28] [SPEAKER_01]: was like em night you should put 2010
[01:05:29] [SPEAKER_01]: on this hood because then it's gonna
[01:05:30] [SPEAKER_01]: work his knees straight for something
[01:05:31] [SPEAKER_01]: I haven't done yet you're cutting
[01:05:33] [SPEAKER_01]: that too right then it's a little
[01:05:37] [SPEAKER_01]: spooky right it's yeah well or the
[01:05:40] [SPEAKER_01]: indb trivia person said dummy yeah
[01:05:42] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah this is a thing I don't think we
[01:05:44] [SPEAKER_03]: should really rely on our duty for
[01:05:45] [SPEAKER_03]: you too much because anyone can
[01:05:46] [SPEAKER_02]: submit that shit although sometimes I
[01:05:48] [SPEAKER_02]: say things to people so it forces me
[01:05:50] [SPEAKER_02]: to do it yeah you know what I mean you're
[01:05:53] [SPEAKER_02]: saying it was like a like a vision board
[01:05:55] [SPEAKER_01]: yeah he made a vision board in this
[01:05:57] [SPEAKER_01]: movie so that he could someday direct a
[01:05:58] [SPEAKER_01]: last airbender movie okay day after
[01:06:00] [SPEAKER_01]: tomorrow which I enjoy I think is
[01:06:03] [SPEAKER_01]: actually like it's all right budget
[01:06:06] [SPEAKER_03]: be moved that's brought easy about
[01:06:08] [SPEAKER_03]: the environment that actually at least
[01:06:10] [SPEAKER_03]: like tries to be about like the
[01:06:12] [SPEAKER_03]: environment and like climate change
[01:06:14] [SPEAKER_03]: not good at it or a little like a
[01:06:16] [SPEAKER_01]: sort of yeah over the head but also
[01:06:18] [SPEAKER_03]: this movie is just him being like a
[01:06:19] [SPEAKER_03]: climate change that'd make the trees
[01:06:21] [SPEAKER_03]: mad it's not thematically tied into the
[01:06:23] [SPEAKER_01]: phone at all it's not hit upon as a
[01:06:24] [SPEAKER_01]: thing whatsoever but the other thing
[01:06:26] [SPEAKER_01]: what day after tomorrow is the way they
[01:06:27] [SPEAKER_01]: get around this thing is it's like okay
[01:06:28] [SPEAKER_01]: you can't beat the world right nature
[01:06:31] [SPEAKER_01]: if it's gonna attack is gonna attack
[01:06:32] [SPEAKER_01]: there's no way to beat it there's
[01:06:33] [SPEAKER_01]: not an alien chief that you can take
[01:06:35] [SPEAKER_01]: you right so what is the part of the
[01:06:37] [SPEAKER_01]: air on fire the Suns in New York
[01:06:39] [SPEAKER_01]: the dads in DC the movie is time to
[01:06:41] [SPEAKER_01]: take me more yeah it's then finding
[01:06:43] [SPEAKER_01]: someone has to get to someone else
[01:06:45] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah no the good thing about the day
[01:06:46] [SPEAKER_03]: after tomorrow is that the world ends
[01:06:47] [SPEAKER_03]: right but there's an emotional climax
[01:06:49] [SPEAKER_03]: to them reuniting which means there's a
[01:06:51] [SPEAKER_01]: thing you can latch on to and like
[01:06:53] [SPEAKER_01]: follow and there's a goal that can be
[01:06:55] [SPEAKER_01]: achieved they can't beat nature but
[01:06:57] [SPEAKER_01]: like the guy can it can find his son
[01:07:00] [SPEAKER_01]: again and hug him and then we'll feel
[01:07:01] [SPEAKER_01]: some sort of catharsis at the end of
[01:07:03] [SPEAKER_01]: the movie this movie is a guy and
[01:07:04] [SPEAKER_01]: his wife who don't really like each
[01:07:06] [SPEAKER_01]: other anymore who should have never
[01:07:07] [SPEAKER_01]: gotten married in the first place
[01:07:08] [SPEAKER_01]: on the run at minute 40 a guy
[01:07:11] [SPEAKER_01]: explains them everything that's going
[01:07:12] [SPEAKER_01]: on they go that's dumb and you're an
[01:07:14] [SPEAKER_01]: idiot fuck you and then go on with
[01:07:16] [SPEAKER_01]: their way 20 minutes later when his
[01:07:18] [SPEAKER_01]: theory is proven completely correct
[01:07:19] [SPEAKER_01]: they're like that guy still dumb
[01:07:21] [SPEAKER_01]: maybe he's right probably not he's
[01:07:23] [SPEAKER_03]: crazy out in i think the scene that
[01:07:25] [SPEAKER_03]: people mock the most which is them
[01:07:27] [SPEAKER_03]: like out running just like wind yeah
[01:07:29] [SPEAKER_03]: like they're in like a hayfield and
[01:07:31] [SPEAKER_03]: they sort of see the wind approaching
[01:07:33] [SPEAKER_01]: but see that's like this last scene
[01:07:35] [SPEAKER_01]: i think we should mock because even
[01:07:36] [SPEAKER_01]: it feels corny and i think it's just
[01:07:37] [SPEAKER_01]: because of what the movie's got
[01:07:38] [SPEAKER_01]: that he buckled to mock yeah right
[01:07:40] [SPEAKER_01]: wait a second that's the biggest thing
[01:07:41] [SPEAKER_01]: yeah i also think that's the moment
[01:07:43] [SPEAKER_01]: where the movie's kind of hitting into
[01:07:44] [SPEAKER_01]: something where it's like if you are
[01:07:45] [SPEAKER_01]: going to try to make a b-movie and we're
[01:07:47] [SPEAKER_01]: not talking literally b-movie because
[01:07:48] [SPEAKER_01]: it's a 48 million dollar budget but a
[01:07:50] [SPEAKER_01]: kind of film that's that like broad
[01:07:52] [SPEAKER_01]: right and that that is that pulpy i
[01:07:54] [SPEAKER_01]: wanted to be them out running the
[01:07:56] [SPEAKER_01]: rent like i wanted to be like i don't
[01:07:58] [SPEAKER_03]: like that scene though i like no i
[01:08:00] [SPEAKER_01]: i don't like that scene i like that
[01:08:01] [SPEAKER_03]: idea is like the wind blows over
[01:08:03] [SPEAKER_03]: them nothing happens because they're
[01:08:05] [SPEAKER_03]: small enough group and only a
[01:08:06] [SPEAKER_03]: tech large group and then walbrick
[01:08:07] [SPEAKER_03]: has to be like oh small enough
[01:08:08] [SPEAKER_03]: group think of the vectors like and
[01:08:10] [SPEAKER_03]: we're like oh like it doesn't it doesn't
[01:08:13] [SPEAKER_03]: land at all like that that oh what they
[01:08:15] [SPEAKER_03]: needed to do is be five people or
[01:08:17] [SPEAKER_03]: something you know like feels like
[01:08:18] [SPEAKER_02]: little kids playing a game and they make
[01:08:20] [SPEAKER_03]: up like a new rule and it is but especially
[01:08:22] [SPEAKER_03]: because we just saw of four people in
[01:08:25] [SPEAKER_03]: a car or something kill themselves
[01:08:26] [SPEAKER_03]: right like it the rules don't make a
[01:08:29] [SPEAKER_03]: lot of sense
[01:08:30] [SPEAKER_03]: what are you loading there no there's
[01:08:31] [SPEAKER_01]: a line you're forgetting that's my
[01:08:32] [SPEAKER_01]: favorite other stuff no absolutely not
[01:08:34] [SPEAKER_01]: you're definitely cutting out absolutely
[01:08:36] [SPEAKER_01]: not
[01:08:37] [SPEAKER_01]: there's a line that happens here it's
[01:08:38] [SPEAKER_01]: my favorite line the entire film i
[01:08:39] [SPEAKER_01]: see if i can find a verbatim but i can't
[01:08:41] [SPEAKER_01]: but they're all yelling at him and
[01:08:43] [SPEAKER_03]: they're like it'd be better if you cut
[01:08:44] [SPEAKER_03]: it just because it makes people wonder

[01:08:47] [SPEAKER_01]: mentioned seven more times i'm in
[01:08:48] [SPEAKER_01]: favor of cutting it just because i think
[01:08:49] [SPEAKER_01]: it'll be funny to not know what it is
[01:08:51] [SPEAKER_01]: but we have to mention seven more
[01:08:52] [SPEAKER_01]: times ben take count that was one out
[01:08:54] [SPEAKER_03]: of the seven times already mentioned a
[01:08:55] [SPEAKER_03]: bunch of times we have to mention it
[01:08:56] [SPEAKER_01]: more
[01:08:56] [SPEAKER_01]: um they're all yelling at ellie and
[01:08:59] [SPEAKER_01]: they're like figure it out what's

[01:09:01] [SPEAKER_01]: in the distance from frank callas
[01:09:02] [SPEAKER_01]: and group
[01:09:02] [SPEAKER_01]: and they're like ellie what's going
[01:09:04] [SPEAKER_01]: on the winds are blowing there in
[01:09:05] [SPEAKER_01]: the middle of a field even though
[01:09:06] [SPEAKER_01]: frank callas and have been like
[01:09:07] [SPEAKER_01]: it's probably the plants they were
[01:09:08] [SPEAKER_01]: let's go out into nature so they're
[01:09:10] [SPEAKER_01]: walking through the fields right and
[01:09:12] [SPEAKER_01]: they're all screaming and the gunshots
[01:09:13] [SPEAKER_01]: are going off and zoey just was crying
[01:09:15] [SPEAKER_01]: she's like we gotta help them we're
[01:09:16] [SPEAKER_01]: like those assholes who watch a crime

[01:09:20] [SPEAKER_01]: this and they're like do something
[01:09:21] [SPEAKER_01]: solve something and he's like okay
[01:09:22] [SPEAKER_01]: okay i have to treat this like a
[01:09:24] [SPEAKER_01]: science problem i have to create an
[01:09:26] [SPEAKER_01]: argument camera is like right on his
[01:09:27] [SPEAKER_01]: face right on his face and they're
[01:09:29] [SPEAKER_01]: like do something and he's like give
[01:09:30] [SPEAKER_01]: me a second to calm down i got to
[01:09:31] [SPEAKER_01]: a science experiment he says give
[01:09:32] [SPEAKER_03]: me a second like four times right and
[01:09:34] [SPEAKER_01]: then he says oh come on do some
[01:09:35] [SPEAKER_01]: science douchebag he does he says
[01:09:37] [SPEAKER_01]: the line do some science you douchebag
[01:09:40] [SPEAKER_01]: he does say that that's the best line in
[01:09:42] [SPEAKER_03]: the entire film i guess i don't because i
[01:09:44] [SPEAKER_01]: like i can think of another line it
[01:09:46] [SPEAKER_01]: feels like the one line that acknowledges
[01:09:47] [SPEAKER_01]: that mark wallberg the actor thinks that
[01:09:48] [SPEAKER_01]: science is dorky and you fucking
[01:09:50] [SPEAKER_02]: science douchebag oh so that wasn't in
[01:09:52] [SPEAKER_02]: the script you think that he
[01:09:53] [SPEAKER_02]: he adlib that yeah he was angry
[01:09:55] [SPEAKER_01]: because he couldn't remember his lines
[01:09:57] [SPEAKER_01]: mark what are you supposed to say
[01:09:58] [SPEAKER_01]: right now i don't know do your
[01:10:00] [SPEAKER_01]: science douchebag do some science
[01:10:02] [SPEAKER_01]: douchebag there's another line i
[01:10:05] [SPEAKER_01]: really like which is when they uh when
[01:10:07] [SPEAKER_01]: john legazamo is like my best friend and
[01:10:09] [SPEAKER_01]: his wife who i don't trust
[01:10:11] [SPEAKER_01]: can you please take my daughter as i go
[01:10:13] [SPEAKER_01]: to princeton take my daughter the one

[01:10:27] [SPEAKER_01]: her like you want to take care of
[01:10:29] [SPEAKER_03]: her not hold her hand okay so they're
[01:10:30] [SPEAKER_03]: in the field no i'm talking yeah i'm
[01:10:32] [SPEAKER_03]: talking because i want to get back
[01:10:33] [SPEAKER_03]: to this and it's right around this
[01:10:34] [SPEAKER_03]: moment okay there's this drama about
[01:10:36] [SPEAKER_03]: de Shino yeah and like there's this
[01:10:38] [SPEAKER_03]: rift in the marriage yeah then they're
[01:10:40] [SPEAKER_03]: walking and she's like so i had tiramisu
[01:10:42] [SPEAKER_03]: with that night Shyamalan like and and
[01:10:44] [SPEAKER_03]: i just needed to tell you that because i
[01:10:46] [SPEAKER_03]: think we might die and i just want to
[01:10:47] [SPEAKER_03]: tell you i had tiramisu with this guy
[01:10:49] [SPEAKER_03]: joey and nothing happened but i did

[01:10:54] [SPEAKER_03]: telling me this why are you telling me
[01:10:55] [SPEAKER_03]: this then he has some response that
[01:10:57] [SPEAKER_03]: he makes up he admits is made up i
[01:10:58] [SPEAKER_03]: figure what it is he says he was
[01:11:00] [SPEAKER_01]: at a pharmacy and there was a woman
[01:11:01] [SPEAKER_01]: and he completely and like what's
[01:11:03] [SPEAKER_01]: the word coughs here if he said
[01:11:05] [SPEAKER_03]: necessary cause it's a necessary coughs
[01:11:07] [SPEAKER_03]: here and she's like is that true and he's
[01:11:08] [SPEAKER_03]: like i was expensive i was like 20
[01:11:09] [SPEAKER_03]: and then after that the problem is
[01:11:13] [SPEAKER_03]: salt they just kind of needed to air
[01:11:15] [SPEAKER_03]: that out and then that's it they
[01:11:17] [SPEAKER_01]: still seem happy together they're not
[01:11:19] [SPEAKER_03]: you're reading into that to their bad
[01:11:20] [SPEAKER_03]: performances they shouldn't be married
[01:11:21] [SPEAKER_03]: the way the movie is structured
[01:11:22] [SPEAKER_03]: they they just sort of like it's
[01:11:25] [SPEAKER_03]: just sort of he i think maybe in his
[01:11:27] [SPEAKER_03]: rewrites that was what he was like oh
[01:11:28] [SPEAKER_03]: i have this you know killer tree
[01:11:30] [SPEAKER_03]: movie but i need like a bit of an
[01:11:32] [SPEAKER_03]: emotional spine right so we'll do
[01:11:34] [SPEAKER_03]: this thing about this marriage that's
[01:11:35] [SPEAKER_03]: like kind of like like many of
[01:11:38] [SPEAKER_03]: shamalan's movies is about a marriage
[01:11:39] [SPEAKER_03]: that's kind of fractured and we'll get
[01:11:41] [SPEAKER_03]: them back together they've also at this
[01:11:42] [SPEAKER_01]: point dropped like four seeds about the
[01:11:44] [SPEAKER_01]: mood ring right which feels like mood
[01:11:47] [SPEAKER_01]: but it feels like in shaman fashion
[01:11:48] [SPEAKER_01]: like that's the glass of water like the
[01:11:50] [SPEAKER_01]: mood went ring is somehow going to help
[01:11:51] [SPEAKER_01]: them save the day and then it then
[01:11:53] [SPEAKER_01]: like the kids want to try it like so
[01:11:56] [SPEAKER_01]: drop one is when he goes home he's
[01:11:57] [SPEAKER_01]: packing his bags he reaches for the
[01:11:59] [SPEAKER_01]: mood ring before he leaves drop two
[01:12:01] [SPEAKER_01]: is when the daughter's freaking out
[01:12:02] [SPEAKER_01]: like his almost daughter new girl he's
[01:12:04] [SPEAKER_01]: like hey you want to see something fun
[01:12:06] [SPEAKER_01]: put this on and then he's like oh that
[01:12:08] [SPEAKER_01]: color means yellow means you're about
[01:12:09] [SPEAKER_01]: the laugh huh you're gonna laugh huh
[01:12:11] [SPEAKER_01]: you're gonna laugh huh it keeps on saying
[01:12:12] [SPEAKER_01]: that to her until she laughs
[01:12:14] [SPEAKER_01]: then after frank calls and shoots
[01:12:15] [SPEAKER_01]: himself and he's like we got to be a
[01:12:17] [SPEAKER_01]: small group their group is now
[01:12:18] [SPEAKER_01]: splintered off and it's like
[01:12:20] [SPEAKER_01]: dashanel wallberg new girl and two
[01:12:22] [SPEAKER_01]: kids one of whom is played by
[01:12:24] [SPEAKER_01]: spencer brazilan
[01:12:25] [SPEAKER_01]: uh correct the other one is played
[01:12:27] [SPEAKER_01]: by another kid and the two of them
[01:12:28] [SPEAKER_01]: are like oh mood ring that's cool
[01:12:30] [SPEAKER_01]: huh mood rings yeah that's awesome and
[01:12:32] [SPEAKER_01]: he's like oh can i try it on he goes no
[01:12:34] [SPEAKER_01]: it has emotional value for me
[01:12:37] [SPEAKER_01]: yeah okay where's the mood ring going
[01:12:39] [SPEAKER_01]: m night what do you drop in here with
[01:12:41] [SPEAKER_01]: the mood ring and at the end of the
[01:12:42] [SPEAKER_01]: film he's like member on our first date
[01:12:44] [SPEAKER_01]: when i give you that mood ring
[01:12:46] [SPEAKER_02]: oh well no there is a little bit of a
[01:12:48] [SPEAKER_02]: payoff and i might be wrong on this
[01:12:50] [SPEAKER_02]: but i remember um that there's a
[01:12:53] [SPEAKER_02]: point where there's a reveal of him
[01:12:55] [SPEAKER_02]: when he's really scared and they're
[01:12:57] [SPEAKER_02]: separated and it shows that it's
[01:12:59] [SPEAKER_02]: yellow and it's supposed to signify that
[01:13:01] [SPEAKER_02]: he's actually scared just like the girl
[01:13:03] [SPEAKER_02]: was scared earlier yeah i think i'm
[01:13:05] [SPEAKER_02]: think i'm remembering that right and
[01:13:06] [SPEAKER_01]: that's when they yeah come on if you're
[01:13:08] [SPEAKER_01]: gonna put that in the movie do more with
[01:13:10] [SPEAKER_03]: it um yeah uh because after the scene
[01:13:15] [SPEAKER_03]: we just talked about the hayfield
[01:13:16] [SPEAKER_03]: scene where they decide to be in a
[01:13:17] [SPEAKER_03]: small group they go to a house no
[01:13:19] [SPEAKER_03]: no they first they come upon a farm and
[01:13:21] [SPEAKER_03]: they see a guy run himself over with
[01:13:22] [SPEAKER_03]: a giant lawn mower right then they
[01:13:24] [SPEAKER_03]: go to that porch and then they go
[01:13:25] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah to this porch and they're like
[01:13:28] [SPEAKER_02]: let's go in there can i just say to
[01:13:30] [SPEAKER_02]: how are what all right some people are
[01:13:32] [SPEAKER_02]: standing yeah okay
[01:13:33] [SPEAKER_02]: right they show like the rapid fire
[01:13:35] [SPEAKER_02]: gunshot they show the guy with the
[01:13:36] [SPEAKER_02]: lawn mower but there's i mean you can
[01:13:39] [SPEAKER_02]: only kill yourself so many ways
[01:13:41] [SPEAKER_03]: you can but also it's one guy why is
[01:13:44] [SPEAKER_03]: why is everything not working on him
[01:13:47] [SPEAKER_03]: the logic doesn't we also we totally
[01:13:49] [SPEAKER_01]: skipped over Jeremy Strong who for 15
[01:13:52] [SPEAKER_01]: minutes plays a nervous soldier he
[01:13:54] [SPEAKER_01]: essentially plays gomer pie oh god
[01:13:56] [SPEAKER_03]: oh my god he's the brother from i forgot
[01:13:58] [SPEAKER_03]: about the judge yeah he's the brother
[01:14:00] [SPEAKER_03]: from the judge that the and he plays a
[01:14:02] [SPEAKER_01]: nervous like stuttering soldier and he
[01:14:05] [SPEAKER_01]: liked when they're in the car with
[01:14:06] [SPEAKER_01]: frank call us and before they split up
[01:14:07] [SPEAKER_01]: he's like oh sir i'm gonna figure this
[01:14:09] [SPEAKER_03]: out he's a good actor like he's good in
[01:14:10] [SPEAKER_03]: the big short like you can be a can be
[01:14:12] [SPEAKER_03]: a good actor he can be catastrophic if
[01:14:14] [SPEAKER_03]: used incorrectly
[01:14:16] [SPEAKER_03]: i mean it's not his fault it's not his
[01:14:18] [SPEAKER_03]: fault because there's a scene where
[01:14:20] [SPEAKER_03]: they all driving in different
[01:14:21] [SPEAKER_03]: directions and like they run into the
[01:14:23] [SPEAKER_03]: army and the army's like can't go
[01:14:24] [SPEAKER_03]: that way like i'm private ball and i
[01:14:26] [SPEAKER_03]: went to the base and everyone was in the
[01:14:28] [SPEAKER_03]: barbed wire and oh you know i'm not
[01:14:30] [SPEAKER_01]: exaggerating there's like 12 minutes that
[01:14:32] [SPEAKER_01]: are them following him right and what
[01:14:34] [SPEAKER_01]: happens to him he shoots himself with
[01:14:35] [SPEAKER_01]: his gun and that's what sets off the
[01:14:37] [SPEAKER_01]: trigger of all the guys and wallberg
[01:14:38] [SPEAKER_01]: doing the science equations now we
[01:14:40] [SPEAKER_01]: get to the porch and he's with the
[01:14:41] [SPEAKER_01]: two kids and the guys like sense of
[01:14:43] [SPEAKER_01]: presence like knocking on the door
[01:14:44] [SPEAKER_01]: and he's like come on we got a kid
[01:14:46] [SPEAKER_01]: we need food and wallberg's like
[01:14:48] [SPEAKER_01]: don't
[01:14:48] [SPEAKER_01]: fucking do that what are you doing
[01:14:50] [SPEAKER_01]: he's a come on it's a little girl
[01:14:52] [SPEAKER_01]: we need food we need food and this
[01:14:53] [SPEAKER_01]: guy's like get off my porch
[01:14:55] [SPEAKER_01]: and it's been so present like you asshole
[01:14:57] [SPEAKER_01]: fuck you your piece of shit
[01:14:59] [SPEAKER_01]: Spencer Breslin of disney's the kid
[01:15:00] [SPEAKER_01]: yeah look at dick like he starts saying
[01:15:02] [SPEAKER_01]: mean stuff to this old guy through the
[01:15:04] [SPEAKER_01]: door right yeah and then he gets
[01:15:06] [SPEAKER_01]: shotgun in the chest yeah then the
[01:15:07] [SPEAKER_01]: guy just opens the door creek sticks
[01:15:08] [SPEAKER_01]: out a shotgun shoots him in the
[01:15:10] [SPEAKER_03]: chest blows eight holes in his chest
[01:15:11] [SPEAKER_01]: and his best friend is standing by
[01:15:13] [SPEAKER_01]: the window and is like oh shit my
[01:15:14] [SPEAKER_01]: friend just died and then you see the
[01:15:15] [SPEAKER_03]: shot in the nozzle of a gun like
[01:15:18] [SPEAKER_03]: the slow and wallberg's like no and
[01:15:21] [SPEAKER_01]: is like super slow mo shoot some in the
[01:15:23] [SPEAKER_01]: back of the head there's a shot where
[01:15:25] [SPEAKER_01]: you can tell he's about to get shot in
[01:15:26] [SPEAKER_01]: the head and the kids heads looking
[01:15:27] [SPEAKER_01]: weird because they clearly have like
[01:15:29] [SPEAKER_01]: some sort of blood pack but then they
[01:15:30] [SPEAKER_01]: cut before the blood pack goes away
[01:15:32] [SPEAKER_01]: we may be so it's just one shot of a
[01:15:34] [SPEAKER_01]: kid with a deformed skull that's
[01:15:35] [SPEAKER_03]: clearly just there might be like a
[01:15:36] [SPEAKER_03]: millisecond of an impact i can't it's
[01:15:39] [SPEAKER_03]: like hard to tell it's immediately
[01:15:40] [SPEAKER_03]: is the gun fires yeah so now these
[01:15:42] [SPEAKER_01]: two kids are dead we're back to
[01:15:44] [SPEAKER_01]: just our holy trinity wanted violence
[01:15:45] [SPEAKER_03]: well you got two dead kids
[01:15:47] [SPEAKER_03]: to child murders and i'll admit
[01:15:49] [SPEAKER_03]: like it is a little jarring it's
[01:15:51] [SPEAKER_03]: whoa okay okay and it's the only real
[01:15:54] [SPEAKER_03]: time in this movie that what you think
[01:15:57] [SPEAKER_03]: is gonna happen people turn 30 minutes
[01:15:59] [SPEAKER_03]: 30 minutes in is yeah like if you're
[01:16:01] [SPEAKER_03]: talking about the birds and invasion
[01:16:02] [SPEAKER_03]: of the body centers like paranoia movies
[01:16:04] [SPEAKER_03]: that's the thing you want to think
[01:16:05] [SPEAKER_03]: there'd be more of this but there's not
[01:16:07] [SPEAKER_01]: okay but then they get to a house
[01:16:09] [SPEAKER_01]: there's three of them they get there
[01:16:10] [SPEAKER_01]: they do get to a house there's no
[01:16:12] [SPEAKER_01]: electricity here that's interesting
[01:16:13] [SPEAKER_01]: this house seems safe
[01:16:14] [SPEAKER_01]: oh it's just one person no one's
[01:16:16] [SPEAKER_01]: coming here
[01:16:17] [SPEAKER_02]: um what a kind old lady
[01:16:19] [SPEAKER_01]: no we haven't even met the lady yet
[01:16:21] [SPEAKER_01]: oh there's also that part where they go
[01:16:22] [SPEAKER_01]: to a model home and they're really happy
[01:16:23] [SPEAKER_01]: there and they're like oh we got to leave
[01:16:24] [SPEAKER_01]: because other people are going to come
[01:16:25] [SPEAKER_01]: here so they just leave
[01:16:26] [SPEAKER_01]: yeah i mean there is this sense of like
[01:16:29] [SPEAKER_01]: there's a wave so we have to keep out
[01:16:31] [SPEAKER_03]: running the way
[01:16:31] [SPEAKER_03]: and they do but no they finally they
[01:16:33] [SPEAKER_03]: are deep in the wilderness when they
[01:16:35] [SPEAKER_03]: come to betty buckley's house
[01:16:36] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah and then mark wallberg is looking
[01:16:39] [SPEAKER_03]: at betty buckley
[01:16:40] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah right yeah that's like what it
[01:16:42] [SPEAKER_03]: is yeah he's like suddenly like oh

[01:18:46] [SPEAKER_03]: bed
[01:18:46] [SPEAKER_03]: wearing like some sort of like fake mask
[01:18:49] [SPEAKER_03]: i would say it looks like the eyes look
[01:18:51] [SPEAKER_03]: submerged like you know like like
[01:18:53] [SPEAKER_03]: like the woman should be behind something
[01:18:54] [SPEAKER_01]: i would say it looks like the uh wooden
[01:18:56] [SPEAKER_01]: version of like a real doll like a sex
[01:18:59] [SPEAKER_01]: sure
[01:18:59] [SPEAKER_03]: and like almost is looking it almost
[01:19:02] [SPEAKER_03]: seems to be making eye contact with
[01:19:03] [SPEAKER_03]: the camera like it's like trapped
[01:19:04] [SPEAKER_01]: you're like okay where the fuck
[01:19:06] [SPEAKER_01]: and you're just like what is going

[01:19:13] [SPEAKER_01]: house and then that's just done and then
[01:19:14] [SPEAKER_01]: she just gets the toxin and kills
[01:19:17] [SPEAKER_01]: herself yeah but why she what her deal
[01:19:20] [SPEAKER_01]: was why she had a doll on the bed now
[01:19:22] [SPEAKER_01]: that's clear now she did mention during
[01:19:23] [SPEAKER_01]: dinner that they used to use the house
[01:19:25] [SPEAKER_01]: to store slaves to hide them out to get
[01:19:28] [SPEAKER_01]: like an underground railroad thing so
[01:19:30] [SPEAKER_01]: they had a cabin that they had connected
[01:19:32] [SPEAKER_01]: to the house
[01:19:33] [SPEAKER_01]: and there's some sort of tunnel yeah
[01:19:35] [SPEAKER_01]: you can use to talk to people through
[01:19:36] [SPEAKER_01]: the tube
[01:19:37] [SPEAKER_01]: yeah even though the house is across
[01:19:39] [SPEAKER_01]: the field
[01:19:39] [SPEAKER_01]: you can you can it's like this point i'm
[01:19:42] [SPEAKER_03]: zoning out but i'm like oh i guess this
[01:19:44] [SPEAKER_03]: is going to matter
[01:19:45] [SPEAKER_03]: like because there's no way they'd tell
[01:19:47] [SPEAKER_03]: us all this shit so walberg's freaking
[01:19:48] [SPEAKER_01]: out she's smashing her head through the
[01:19:50] [SPEAKER_01]: window because she is the toxin the air
[01:19:52] [SPEAKER_01]: is coming through the winds are blowing
[01:19:54] [SPEAKER_01]: and walberg's like i gotta find hey
[01:19:56] [SPEAKER_01]: alma just alma just and he can't find
[01:19:59] [SPEAKER_01]: them and he freaks out he like
[01:20:00] [SPEAKER_01]: closed himself in a bathroom he locks
[01:20:02] [SPEAKER_01]: the door right
[01:20:03] [SPEAKER_02]: and then she's being responsible by
[01:20:05] [SPEAKER_02]: taking the kid out of the house and
[01:20:07] [SPEAKER_02]: like wandering around outside he doesn't
[01:20:09] [SPEAKER_01]: know that until this moment yeah but
[01:20:10] [SPEAKER_01]: why would she even do that because she's
[01:20:12] [SPEAKER_01]: an idiot
[01:20:12] [SPEAKER_01]: uh
[01:20:14] [SPEAKER_02]: movie
[01:20:15] [SPEAKER_01]: here's giggling
[01:20:16] [SPEAKER_01]: looks over there in the barn where the
[01:20:18] [SPEAKER_01]: slaves used to be
[01:20:20] [SPEAKER_01]: he has a direct pipeline to them he
[01:20:21] [SPEAKER_01]: starts talking to them and is like i'm

[01:20:34] [SPEAKER_01]: on this you had blue i thought it
[01:20:35] [SPEAKER_01]: meant love but actually meant horny

[01:20:45] [SPEAKER_01]: her even though the winds are blowing
[01:20:46] [SPEAKER_01]: right
[01:20:46] [SPEAKER_01]: and she i think she also comes to him
[01:20:49] [SPEAKER_01]: with the girl he's like hey little
[01:20:51] [SPEAKER_01]: girl you want to commit suicide with
[01:20:53] [SPEAKER_01]: me come on it's over they don't know
[01:20:54] [SPEAKER_01]: that they don't know that because
[01:20:56] [SPEAKER_01]: 30 seconds earlier
[01:20:58] [SPEAKER_01]: mrs jones had walked out and he was
[01:21:00] [SPEAKER_01]: like it can affect one person
[01:21:01] [SPEAKER_01]: it's gotten so specific it can kill
[01:21:03] [SPEAKER_01]: one person that happened just like
[01:21:06] [SPEAKER_01]: within minutes
[01:21:07] [SPEAKER_01]: he was like it's evolved it can hit one
[01:21:09] [SPEAKER_01]: person now it doesn't have to be a
[01:21:11] [SPEAKER_03]: person by the way makes no sense
[01:21:12] [SPEAKER_03]: makes already killed one person yeah
[01:21:13] [SPEAKER_03]: plenty of time yeah we saw that right
[01:21:15] [SPEAKER_01]: we saw that yeah we saw but then they
[01:21:17] [SPEAKER_01]: walk out and they're both oh and guess
[01:21:18] [SPEAKER_01]: what it's fine they're fine and they
[01:21:20] [SPEAKER_01]: just hug and it's over for no clear
[01:21:21] [SPEAKER_02]: reason great love conquers all
[01:21:23] [SPEAKER_03]: uh yeah they're fine and then we see a
[01:21:25] [SPEAKER_03]: tv report where it's like a scientist
[01:21:27] [SPEAKER_03]: being like well it's like a red tide
[01:21:29] [SPEAKER_03]: in an ocean where it's like it happens
[01:21:31] [SPEAKER_03]: like a minute and stops and it's like
[01:21:33] [SPEAKER_03]: a warning it happened yeah
[01:21:37] [SPEAKER_03]: and could happen again yeah who knows
[01:21:41] [SPEAKER_03]: and then we cut to like there now
[01:21:44] [SPEAKER_03]: she's got like a baby on the way yeah
[01:21:46] [SPEAKER_03]: they're like happy jess is now like an
[01:21:49] [SPEAKER_03]: adopted daughter yeah and she's going
[01:21:51] [SPEAKER_03]: to school
[01:21:52] [SPEAKER_03]: uh mark albergh is teaching about science
[01:21:55] [SPEAKER_03]: and then we cut to the twillery in
[01:21:59] [SPEAKER_03]: paris yeah and i think does everyone
[01:22:01] [SPEAKER_03]: sort of freeze for a second yes
[01:22:03] [SPEAKER_01]: yeah great oh great how nice
[01:22:07] [SPEAKER_01]: the re-happening it's such a shrug yeah
[01:22:10] [SPEAKER_01]: the whole movie feels like him just it
[01:22:11] [SPEAKER_01]: feels very cynical it feels like him
[01:22:14] [SPEAKER_01]: not playing to the top of intelligence
[01:22:15] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah this should be his science like
[01:22:17] [SPEAKER_03]: another science where it's like oh you
[01:22:19] [SPEAKER_03]: may but he used all his tricks maybe
[01:22:21] [SPEAKER_03]: i'm not sure why this but when he said
[01:22:23] [SPEAKER_01]: like i'm just trying to make the best
[01:22:24] [SPEAKER_01]: b movie ever it feels to me like him
[01:22:26] [SPEAKER_01]: being like i'm just gonna try make
[01:22:27] [SPEAKER_01]: some stupid movie that you people
[01:22:28] [SPEAKER_03]: like well he's making a thriller
[01:22:30] [SPEAKER_03]: but his mistake is like oh did you
[01:22:33] [SPEAKER_03]: want like a little bit of gory
[01:22:34] [SPEAKER_01]: violence okay give you a little it's not
[01:22:37] [SPEAKER_01]: much do you want me to double down on
[01:22:39] [SPEAKER_01]: that like broken marriage thing i made
[01:22:40] [SPEAKER_01]: an all mother movies but cast two people
[01:22:42] [SPEAKER_01]: who never should have been married in
[01:22:43] [SPEAKER_01]: the first place here's my question
[01:22:45] [SPEAKER_02]: though who is he asking i know these
[01:22:47] [SPEAKER_02]: rhetorical questions yeah does em night
[01:22:48] [SPEAKER_02]: have like industry friends or like i
[01:22:52] [SPEAKER_02]: kind of feel like i don't know for
[01:22:54] [SPEAKER_02]: whatever reason he strikes me as this
[01:22:55] [SPEAKER_02]: guy who's just on his own fucking
[01:22:56] [SPEAKER_02]: island
[01:22:56] [SPEAKER_02]: and he's just i mean he's in philly
[01:22:58] [SPEAKER_02]: he's not in hollywood he's just like
[01:23:00] [SPEAKER_02]: very much just lost it by like
[01:23:03] [SPEAKER_02]: reading into this film like what is this
[01:23:05] [SPEAKER_01]: and this film also i mean this is the
[01:23:07] [SPEAKER_01]: start of his movies feeling very first
[01:23:09] [SPEAKER_01]: draft right yeah i mean lady in the water
[01:23:11] [SPEAKER_01]: two feels like he had an idea he didn't
[01:23:13] [SPEAKER_01]: do the work like he didn't do to make it
[01:23:15] [SPEAKER_01]: fit together really hit lady in the
[01:23:17] [SPEAKER_03]: water is him still having so much power
[01:23:19] [SPEAKER_03]: that he can just write a thing and
[01:23:21] [SPEAKER_03]: just not have an editor yeah now this
[01:23:23] [SPEAKER_03]: he apparently rewrote which makes no
[01:23:25] [SPEAKER_01]: sense because the script still feels
[01:23:26] [SPEAKER_01]: like a first draft to me and i
[01:23:27] [SPEAKER_01]: wonder what the changes that people wanted
[01:23:28] [SPEAKER_03]: were i also think he my guess would
[01:23:30] [SPEAKER_03]: be that he spliced in this sort of
[01:23:32] [SPEAKER_03]: this more emotional story like that you
[01:23:34] [SPEAKER_03]: know the first thing was the green
[01:23:36] [SPEAKER_01]: attack but i almost feel like i'd rather
[01:23:38] [SPEAKER_01]: the movie that doesn't have the emotional
[01:23:39] [SPEAKER_01]: story where it's like establish a group
[01:23:41] [SPEAKER_01]: like don't make it center on one character
[01:23:43] [SPEAKER_01]: make it like the blob and make it like
[01:23:44] [SPEAKER_01]: here are 20 people and they're just on
[01:23:46] [SPEAKER_01]: the run it's like a zombie movie one by
[01:23:48] [SPEAKER_03]: one they're dying off the blobs a good
[01:23:49] [SPEAKER_03]: example the fog is a great example
[01:23:51] [SPEAKER_03]: but you know what the fog does and sad
[01:23:54] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah and like and has a lot of that
[01:23:56] [SPEAKER_03]: sort of paranoia like people pointing
[01:23:58] [SPEAKER_03]: guns at each other people turning on
[01:24:00] [SPEAKER_01]: each other i think this movie needs to
[01:24:01] [SPEAKER_01]: sad i think it needs to have people
[01:24:03] [SPEAKER_01]: turning on each other from the beginning
[01:24:04] [SPEAKER_01]: i think it needs to be about how we
[01:24:06] [SPEAKER_01]: brought this upon ourselves and i also
[01:24:08] [SPEAKER_03]: think with everybody on earth dead
[01:24:10] [SPEAKER_03]: and then just like fucking wind blowing
[01:24:12] [SPEAKER_03]: through the tree but the way to set up
[01:24:13] [SPEAKER_01]: this movie is get give us 12 fun
[01:24:16] [SPEAKER_01]: characters at the beginning have them
[01:24:18] [SPEAKER_01]: all cross paths and then one by one
[01:24:20] [SPEAKER_01]: watch them now i want to say something
[01:24:22] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah i want to quote the poet lori
[01:24:25] [SPEAKER_03]: its own words oh my god the text that
[01:24:28] [SPEAKER_03]: you received the text that i received
[01:24:32] [SPEAKER_03]: at uh well we think it was on a monday
[01:24:34] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah yeah uh from benjamin hozzley is
[01:24:38] [SPEAKER_03]: your full name benjamin i have no idea
[01:24:39] [SPEAKER_01]: yeah yeah yeah um james ben james

[01:24:48] [SPEAKER_03]: march 8th oh just a march afternoon
[01:24:52] [SPEAKER_03]: okay weird thing the happening was
[01:24:54] [SPEAKER_02]: kind of fun yeah all right so do you
[01:24:57] [SPEAKER_02]: you want yeah all right done done that
[01:24:59] [SPEAKER_02]: done so just low expectations yeah
[01:25:03] [SPEAKER_02]: yeah for sure for sure for sure yeah and
[01:25:06] [SPEAKER_02]: like i mean there are elements of it
[01:25:08] [SPEAKER_02]: that uh you know the campy elements
[01:25:10] [SPEAKER_02]: we've kind of already pointed out but
[01:25:13] [SPEAKER_02]: like i'll say honestly what i really
[01:25:14] [SPEAKER_02]: liked about this movie and like like
[01:25:17] [SPEAKER_02]: had some redemption for me was the
[01:25:20] [SPEAKER_02]: kind of video art uh uh moments of
[01:25:24] [SPEAKER_02]: this film like and i say video art in
[01:25:27] [SPEAKER_02]: the sense of like it was kind of
[01:25:30] [SPEAKER_02]: uh uh striking to see the people freezing
[01:25:33] [SPEAKER_02]: the people freezing and walking backwards
[01:25:35] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah that shit is really and i like that
[01:25:38] [SPEAKER_03]: scene i think it's the one in the
[01:25:40] [SPEAKER_03]: final scene in france right where it's
[01:25:42] [SPEAKER_03]: like they keep repeating the line
[01:25:43] [SPEAKER_02]: that's cool it's a cool thing yeah and
[01:25:45] [SPEAKER_02]: so like even like with david's point
[01:25:47] [SPEAKER_02]: of like the movie should have ended
[01:25:49] [SPEAKER_02]: with the whole world dying and just
[01:25:50] [SPEAKER_02]: like tumbleweed like sure i almost
[01:25:52] [SPEAKER_02]: kind of would have loved to see this
[01:25:54] [SPEAKER_02]: like uh in a like very artsy tree oh like
[01:25:59] [SPEAKER_02]: his tree of life yeah you know sure but
[01:26:02] [SPEAKER_02]: uh or yeah i kind of i don't know
[01:26:04] [SPEAKER_02]: fuck it i like maybe that maybe that is
[01:26:07] [SPEAKER_01]: the right way to do it like i i think
[01:26:08] [SPEAKER_01]: look we in like 13 sentences just fix
[01:26:10] [SPEAKER_01]: the entire movie like we threw out the
[01:26:12] [SPEAKER_01]: like the 12 things you would need to
[01:26:14] [SPEAKER_01]: do in order to make this movie work
[01:26:16] [SPEAKER_01]: as like more successfully as a thriller
[01:26:18] [SPEAKER_01]: as an emotionalist or all these
[01:26:19] [SPEAKER_01]: things right yeah but i i also think
[01:26:21] [SPEAKER_01]: like the ending it has to be is everyone
[01:26:23] [SPEAKER_01]: dying yeah because there's no way they
[01:26:25] [SPEAKER_01]: can beat the happening and if the
[01:26:27] [SPEAKER_01]: happening just stops it feels like well
[01:26:28] [SPEAKER_01]: fuck you why did it stop yeah i mean
[01:26:31] [SPEAKER_03]: which to be fair the war of the world has
[01:26:32] [SPEAKER_03]: the same thing where it's just kind of
[01:26:34] [SPEAKER_01]: like pisses me off in war of the
[01:26:35] [SPEAKER_01]: world i like more the world a lot more
[01:26:37] [SPEAKER_01]: but what i don't like when that
[01:26:38] [SPEAKER_01]: happens
[01:26:39] [SPEAKER_03]: um in war of the world there's at
[01:26:41] [SPEAKER_03]: least a suggestion of like why you
[01:26:44] [SPEAKER_03]: know they get sick and this is
[01:26:45] [SPEAKER_03]: just like well it stopped but it
[01:26:47] [SPEAKER_01]: could come back for the aliens like
[01:26:49] [SPEAKER_01]: it's easier to stop a force that has a
[01:26:51] [SPEAKER_01]: brain you know um but i but i also think
[01:26:55] [SPEAKER_01]: that uh the way he could have ended
[01:26:57] [SPEAKER_01]: this movie was
[01:26:58] [SPEAKER_01]: everyone fucking dies in america and then
[01:27:01] [SPEAKER_01]: you cut to france and that france
[01:27:02] [SPEAKER_01]: ending actually has some like weight to
[01:27:04] [SPEAKER_01]: it because it's like okay it's going to
[01:27:05] [SPEAKER_01]: go country by country rather than just
[01:27:07] [SPEAKER_01]: being like here's another place
[01:27:08] [SPEAKER_01]: like it felt like systematically america's
[01:27:11] [SPEAKER_01]: done and now every other country has
[01:27:13] [SPEAKER_01]: their shot to like fight this thing
[01:27:15] [SPEAKER_01]: i think that would kind of be a
[01:27:16] [SPEAKER_01]: cool ending it could be i think the
[01:27:18] [SPEAKER_01]: beginning's great i think the ending is
[01:27:21] [SPEAKER_01]: okay with a different middle and i think
[01:27:23] [SPEAKER_01]: everything that happens in between the
[01:27:24] [SPEAKER_01]: second scene
[01:27:25] [SPEAKER_01]: and the last scene once walberg appears
[01:27:28] [SPEAKER_01]: yeah
[01:27:29] [SPEAKER_02]: yeah but then you've got fucking moments
[01:27:31] [SPEAKER_02]: where uh uh mark walberg's talking to
[01:27:34] [SPEAKER_02]: the plant
[01:27:35] [SPEAKER_02]: oh i do oh that's actually not a bad
[01:27:38] [SPEAKER_02]: scene i forgot about the scene it's
[01:27:40] [SPEAKER_03]: highly entertaining i believe it's
[01:27:41] [SPEAKER_03]: when they go into the model home
[01:27:42] [SPEAKER_03]: yes he walks up to a plant and he
[01:27:45] [SPEAKER_03]: starts being like okay like we don't
[01:27:47] [SPEAKER_03]: mean you any hot or small group you know
[01:27:49] [SPEAKER_03]: and then he realizes it's a plastic
[01:27:50] [SPEAKER_03]: plant because this is a model home
[01:27:52] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah and then what am i doing talking
[01:27:54] [SPEAKER_03]: to plastic plant still doing it yeah
[01:27:56] [SPEAKER_03]: um good scene now it's really good but
[01:27:59] [SPEAKER_03]: also funny
[01:28:01] [SPEAKER_03]: and using walberg's kind of silly
[01:28:02] [SPEAKER_03]: delivery like you know to its advantage
[01:28:05] [SPEAKER_03]: but doesn't help when you've already been
[01:28:07] [SPEAKER_03]: amused by walberg's silly delivery
[01:28:09] [SPEAKER_02]: for an hour it's like
[01:28:12] [SPEAKER_02]: just being kind of right it's just a
[01:28:14] [SPEAKER_02]: little lighter a little like a
[01:28:15] [SPEAKER_01]: humor moment but in science he kills it
[01:28:17] [SPEAKER_01]: with that like he's constantly cutting
[01:28:19] [SPEAKER_01]: the tension with like gibson and and
[01:28:22] [SPEAKER_01]: and the walk like goofing off right yeah
[01:28:24] [SPEAKER_01]: and it feels like these are two actors
[01:28:26] [SPEAKER_01]: who have enough control of like tone
[01:28:28] [SPEAKER_01]: as performers that they're able to like
[01:28:31] [SPEAKER_01]: make it tense and then cut that tension
[01:28:32] [SPEAKER_01]: with like a fake out that actually is
[01:28:34] [SPEAKER_01]: funny and the audience is laughing and
[01:28:36] [SPEAKER_01]: screaming in equal measures in this
[01:28:37] [SPEAKER_01]: way that already feels laughable when
[01:28:39] [SPEAKER_01]: that scene starts it isn't till the
[01:28:41] [SPEAKER_01]: last line that you realize oh this
[01:28:42] [SPEAKER_01]: is meant to be funny
[01:28:43] [SPEAKER_01]: like this is meant to be a joke because
[01:28:45] [SPEAKER_01]: the opening part of him reasoning with a
[01:28:47] [SPEAKER_01]: plant
[01:28:47] [SPEAKER_01]: until you get to the plastic reveal feels
[01:28:50] [SPEAKER_01]: like i guess this is where that movie is
[01:28:51] [SPEAKER_01]: going like this is just
[01:28:52] [SPEAKER_01]: that movie now wants to have a dude talk
[01:28:56] [SPEAKER_01]: to a plant 101 and maybe that's the
[01:28:58] [SPEAKER_01]: next 20 minutes is like
[01:29:00] [SPEAKER_01]: walberg negotiating with fauna by
[01:29:01] [SPEAKER_01]: fauna
[01:29:02] [SPEAKER_01]: you know
[01:29:04] [SPEAKER_02]: all right i thought about it i will
[01:29:06] [SPEAKER_02]: this is what i'll say to speak to my
[01:29:07] [SPEAKER_02]: point or my text
[01:29:08] [SPEAKER_02]: and i guess the one thing i really
[01:29:10] [SPEAKER_02]: liked about this is i was like
[01:29:11] [SPEAKER_02]: this was a cool thing that he thought of
[01:29:14] [SPEAKER_02]: one day sure and he went about trying
[01:29:16] [SPEAKER_02]: to make it happen
[01:29:17] [SPEAKER_02]: and i kind of see some glimpse of maybe
[01:29:21] [SPEAKER_02]: the better moments of that but it's
[01:29:23] [SPEAKER_02]: mostly just shit
[01:29:24] [SPEAKER_01]: i'll say i mean i watched this movie
[01:29:25] [SPEAKER_01]: while cleaning my apartment
[01:29:27] [SPEAKER_01]: i was you know
[01:29:28] [SPEAKER_01]: i don't think it's good but it didn't
[01:29:31] [SPEAKER_01]: anger me
[01:29:32] [SPEAKER_03]: that's the thing yeah it's not like
[01:29:33] [SPEAKER_03]: leading the water where you're
[01:29:34] [SPEAKER_03]: baffled and confused and
[01:29:36] [SPEAKER_03]: frustrated you're just sort of like
[01:29:38] [SPEAKER_03]: crying come on
[01:29:39] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah this is just just kind of a
[01:29:41] [SPEAKER_03]: it's like a two-star movie
[01:29:42] [SPEAKER_03]: feels like
[01:29:43] [SPEAKER_03]: such a fart
[01:29:45] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah it's a bit of a fart
[01:29:46] [SPEAKER_03]: it's a windy fart
[01:29:47] [SPEAKER_03]: it's a windy fart through the leaves
[01:29:50] [SPEAKER_03]: it's because but think about it
[01:29:52] [SPEAKER_03]: he had made this is his third
[01:29:53] [SPEAKER_03]: flop in a row now i'm not obviously i
[01:29:56] [SPEAKER_03]: don't think the village is a flop
[01:29:57] [SPEAKER_03]: but by different by by some standards
[01:29:59] [SPEAKER_01]: the common consensus was
[01:30:00] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah and so he made a movie that was
[01:30:02] [SPEAKER_03]: a twist movie that had gotten everyone
[01:30:03] [SPEAKER_03]: mad
[01:30:04] [SPEAKER_03]: yeah then he made
[01:30:06] [SPEAKER_03]: the lady in the water how do you put
[01:30:07] [SPEAKER_03]: that in a box you can't you can't
[01:30:09] [SPEAKER_03]: but he put if he made that
[01:30:10] [SPEAKER_03]: lady in the water happened yeah
[01:30:12] [SPEAKER_03]: and then he makes this yeah
[01:30:14] [SPEAKER_03]: and according to like hollywood logic
[01:30:17] [SPEAKER_03]: this should be the movie that kind of
[01:30:19] [SPEAKER_03]: gets him back on track yeah
[01:30:20] [SPEAKER_03]: that at least makes enough money
[01:30:21] [SPEAKER_03]: and like kind of it's just like
[01:30:23] [SPEAKER_01]: and 30 million opening wasn't bad
[01:30:24] [SPEAKER_01]: but then it ended up i think
[01:30:25] [SPEAKER_01]: in the 50s it didn't even double
[01:30:27] [SPEAKER_01]: its opening weekend let me find it
[01:30:29] [SPEAKER_01]: i think at most it did 60 total
[01:30:31] [SPEAKER_01]: but it was like a thing where
[01:30:32] [SPEAKER_01]: here's what i think i think if you
[01:30:34] [SPEAKER_01]: look it up ended with 64
[01:30:35] [SPEAKER_01]: okay can you do me a favor
[01:30:37] [SPEAKER_01]: you're in mojo
[01:30:37] [SPEAKER_01]: it made it 163 worldwide fine
[01:30:40] [SPEAKER_01]: can you go to daily box office
[01:30:41] [SPEAKER_01]: i believe it made a disproportionate
[01:30:44] [SPEAKER_01]: amount of its box office on the first
[01:30:46] [SPEAKER_01]: day made 13 million on friday which is
[01:30:48] [SPEAKER_01]: pretty good
[01:30:49] [SPEAKER_01]: second day
[01:30:51] [SPEAKER_01]: 10 okay third day
[01:30:53] [SPEAKER_01]: seven the drop's already happening
[01:30:55] [SPEAKER_03]: it is now now usually
[01:30:58] [SPEAKER_03]: it's friday saturday is bigger
[01:31:00] [SPEAKER_03]: a bigger and then sunday is a drop from
[01:31:02] [SPEAKER_03]: both right that's typical
[01:31:04] [SPEAKER_03]: i believe the classic box office
[01:31:06] [SPEAKER_03]: multiplier is 10 of your opening day
[01:31:09] [SPEAKER_03]: yes so obviously this under did that
[01:31:11] [SPEAKER_03]: so yeah um and keeping those numbers in
[01:31:15] [SPEAKER_03]: though correct oh yeah but we're not
[01:31:17] [SPEAKER_03]: we're going to cut out the other
[01:31:18] [SPEAKER_01]: bullshit okay i agree but we're not
[01:31:21] [SPEAKER_01]: going to tell people what that what
[01:31:23] [SPEAKER_01]: we're going to keep in all the
[01:31:23] [SPEAKER_01]: mentions of cutting it out yeah but not
[01:31:25] [SPEAKER_03]: the initial thing that he did great
[01:31:27] [SPEAKER_01]: suck so we're going to cut out the
[01:31:28] [SPEAKER_01]: two things i said but not explain
[01:31:30] [SPEAKER_01]: to anyone what they were okay all right
[01:31:32] [SPEAKER_01]: but let them know that they weren't
[01:31:33] [SPEAKER_01]: offensive no right they were just
[01:31:35] [SPEAKER_03]: boring right it wasn't like when you
[01:31:37] [SPEAKER_03]: did that horrible asian accent
[01:31:39] [SPEAKER_03]: last week which you did not cut out i
[01:31:41] [SPEAKER_01]: kept that in my request you and i in
[01:31:43] [SPEAKER_01]: fact i sent more audio to ben and he
[01:31:46] [SPEAKER_01]: dropped it into the podcast he put
[01:31:47] [SPEAKER_01]: more of it in
[01:31:49] [SPEAKER_03]: this is true no i'm sorry i'm
[01:31:51] [SPEAKER_03]: overstating uh classically it is a
[01:31:54] [SPEAKER_03]: 3.0 is your classic multiplier
[01:31:57] [SPEAKER_03]: of your friday so it did about that
[01:32:00] [SPEAKER_01]: yeah yeah it is a hard drop um and
[01:32:03] [SPEAKER_01]: and i also think i mean look i was i was
[01:32:05] [SPEAKER_01]: angry seeing it in theaters because at
[01:32:07] [SPEAKER_01]: this point in time i was still an m9
[01:32:08] [SPEAKER_01]: fan you know i i felt like burned but i
[01:32:11] [SPEAKER_01]: was still a fan and there was this
[01:32:12] [SPEAKER_01]: like the second weekend's a 70 66 drop
[01:32:15] [SPEAKER_01]: up so that great yeah yeah i at this
[01:32:18] [SPEAKER_01]: point would still go into the theater
[01:32:19] [SPEAKER_01]: and be like maybe he makes another
[01:32:21] [SPEAKER_01]: six cents do you know what i'm saying
[01:32:22] [SPEAKER_01]: and now i watch it and i know it isn't
[01:32:24] [SPEAKER_01]: the sixth sense and i was just kind of
[01:32:25] [SPEAKER_01]: like fine whatever yeah no it's
[01:32:28] [SPEAKER_03]: it's not a letdown it's short it's
[01:32:30] [SPEAKER_03]: his shortest movie it's an hour and a
[01:32:31] [SPEAKER_03]: half tight 90 uh and uh you know apart
[01:32:35] [SPEAKER_03]: from some like brief gory violence like
[01:32:37] [SPEAKER_03]: there's not a lot that really stays with
[01:32:40] [SPEAKER_01]: you no but those couple of images are
[01:32:41] [SPEAKER_01]: really good they are frustrating that
[01:32:43] [SPEAKER_01]: they're in the wrong movie you know or
[01:32:44] [SPEAKER_03]: he didn't build the right movie around
[01:32:45] [SPEAKER_03]: but when you compare this movie to like
[01:32:47] [SPEAKER_03]: the sixth sense which is so beautifully
[01:32:49] [SPEAKER_02]: composed yeah uh you know and also a
[01:32:52] [SPEAKER_02]: great concept uh and i think he's
[01:32:55] [SPEAKER_02]: like you're seeing this again like i
[01:32:57] [SPEAKER_02]: think this is a solid concept i agree
[01:32:59] [SPEAKER_01]: i think there's a really good movie in
[01:33:01] [SPEAKER_01]: this and i think there are scenes where
[01:33:03] [SPEAKER_01]: he gets at it i think the idea is great
[01:33:04] [SPEAKER_01]: and i think we pretty much like explained
[01:33:08] [SPEAKER_01]: all the different ways he could have
[01:33:09] [SPEAKER_01]: made it work and it's like he made the
[01:33:10] [SPEAKER_01]: one wrong decision every step of the
[01:33:12] [SPEAKER_01]: way um yeah so now i don't like casting
[01:33:15] [SPEAKER_03]: i don't like to talk about the golden
[01:33:16] [SPEAKER_03]: raspberries yeah but it is this is like
[01:33:18] [SPEAKER_03]: the lady in the water he had won best
[01:33:20] [SPEAKER_03]: worst director and worst supporting
[01:33:21] [SPEAKER_03]: actor okay and we admit they're a
[01:33:23] [SPEAKER_03]: stupid organization i don't like the
[01:33:25] [SPEAKER_03]: golden raspberries i think they're
[01:33:26] [SPEAKER_03]: just a little too but whatever it
[01:33:28] [SPEAKER_03]: doesn't you know like you know
[01:33:29] [SPEAKER_03]: they do tend to be a measure of what was
[01:33:31] [SPEAKER_03]: press wise like scene is like the big
[01:33:34] [SPEAKER_03]: bombs of the year now he doesn't win
[01:33:36] [SPEAKER_03]: worst picture director you know like
[01:33:38] [SPEAKER_03]: okay because the love guru came out that
[01:33:41] [SPEAKER_03]: year oh boy and that's that's the razy
[01:33:43] [SPEAKER_03]: which is talk about a blank check movie
[01:33:46] [SPEAKER_03]: the love we might have to do an episode
[01:33:47] [SPEAKER_03]: on have you ever seen the love guru
[01:33:48] [SPEAKER_03]: i have not i have not either i i
[01:33:52] [SPEAKER_03]: revere a o scott's review of it in the
[01:33:53] [SPEAKER_03]: new york times is like one of the
[01:33:55] [SPEAKER_03]: best reviews of the bad story
[01:33:56] [SPEAKER_03]: i've ever seen it's an incredibly bad
[01:33:59] [SPEAKER_03]: great you know review of his review of
[01:34:01] [SPEAKER_03]: the first thaw is incredible too yeah
[01:34:03] [SPEAKER_03]: no he's a great writer um but uh so you
[01:34:06] [SPEAKER_03]: know but still like this is his second
[01:34:07] [SPEAKER_03]: movie in the row that is prominent at
[01:34:09] [SPEAKER_03]: the golden raspberries yeah and yeah
[01:34:12] [SPEAKER_03]: you know it covers its budget it's not
[01:34:14] [SPEAKER_03]: a flop flop like the lady in the
[01:34:15] [SPEAKER_03]: water but not great so the next one's
[01:34:18] [SPEAKER_03]: gotta be good right and this is when
[01:34:20] [SPEAKER_03]: people start talking about him for
[01:34:21] [SPEAKER_03]: life of pie he wanted to make life
[01:34:24] [SPEAKER_03]: of that's when that was floating around
[01:34:25] [SPEAKER_01]: he had signed on he had signed on a
[01:34:28] [SPEAKER_01]: couple years earlier than that i believe
[01:34:29] [SPEAKER_01]: he signed on for life of pie 2004 but it
[01:34:32] [SPEAKER_03]: was nebulous it was like oh maybe he'll
[01:34:34] [SPEAKER_03]: make because it's like here's a movie
[01:34:35] [SPEAKER_03]: about religion yeah about with an
[01:34:38] [SPEAKER_03]: indian protagonist yes like the one
[01:34:40] [SPEAKER_03]: bank of indian director magical realism
[01:34:42] [SPEAKER_03]: that with a lot of technical sort of
[01:34:44] [SPEAKER_03]: aspects like surely this will be the
[01:34:46] [SPEAKER_03]: movie that shaman sort of bounces
[01:34:48] [SPEAKER_03]: back with yeah of course he never
[01:34:49] [SPEAKER_03]: ends up making it
[01:34:50] [SPEAKER_03]: instead his next project is a huge
[01:34:53] [SPEAKER_03]: budget CGI fiasco that we will get to
[01:34:57] [SPEAKER_01]: uh yes that 150 million dollar bill be
[01:34:59] [SPEAKER_01]: our episode next week i have locked in

[01:35:40] [SPEAKER_01]: airbenders you know he wants to
[01:35:41] [SPEAKER_03]: defend he's a classic blank check
[01:35:43] [SPEAKER_03]: guy yeah because it's like what i'm

[01:36:16] [SPEAKER_03]: movie yeah and that he blew it so
[01:36:18] [SPEAKER_03]: hard not only in the making of the
[01:36:20] [SPEAKER_03]: film yeah but like in the casting
[01:36:22] [SPEAKER_03]: everything to the point that like it is
[01:36:24] [SPEAKER_03]: like symbolic of everything wrong with
[01:36:26] [SPEAKER_03]: hollywood's approach agree and we'll
[01:36:27] [SPEAKER_03]: talk about all of that

[01:38:17] [SPEAKER_03]: witch house keys yeah and it's gonna be
[01:38:19] [SPEAKER_03]: a little different from this because i
[01:38:21] [SPEAKER_03]: love every single film that which house
[01:38:22] [SPEAKER_03]: keys have ever made
[01:38:23] [SPEAKER_03]: uh i love most of them but i do think
[01:38:25] [SPEAKER_03]: it's like it's this one's been more
[01:38:28] [SPEAKER_03]: of a critical yeah it's hard not to be
[01:38:30] [SPEAKER_03]: critical of him yeah of course but i
[01:38:32] [SPEAKER_03]: feel like a lot of people are critical
[01:38:33] [SPEAKER_03]: of the way i love the witch house
[01:38:34] [SPEAKER_03]: keys but i'm going to be no both of
[01:38:36] [SPEAKER_01]: us are big defenders and i think
[01:38:38] [SPEAKER_01]: we're going to try to figure out why
[01:38:39] [SPEAKER_01]: they never connected with audiences
[01:38:41] [SPEAKER_01]: again sure but in our minds there
[01:38:43] [SPEAKER_01]: they've been doing good work
[01:38:45] [SPEAKER_01]: they made one movie that was this
[01:38:46] [SPEAKER_01]: big cultural phenomenon and then they
[01:38:47] [SPEAKER_01]: never hit into that zeitgeist again but
[01:38:49] [SPEAKER_01]: i think all their films are
[01:38:50] [SPEAKER_01]: interesting at the least and great at
[01:38:53] [SPEAKER_03]: the best oh their films are fascinating
[01:38:55] [SPEAKER_02]: could i say this do you least give them
[01:38:58] [SPEAKER_02]: credit for always going big
[01:38:59] [SPEAKER_02]: oh they go big do they go big they go
[01:39:03] [SPEAKER_01]: big yes yeah you know what the
[01:39:05] [SPEAKER_01]: happening should have had like a big
[01:39:07] [SPEAKER_01]: tree it's all these little fucking
[01:39:10] [SPEAKER_01]: trees and blades of grass and plants
[01:39:12] [SPEAKER_02]: if they started growing yeah
[01:39:13] [SPEAKER_02]: yeah and they started getting really
[01:39:15] [SPEAKER_02]: big and making humans feel like they're
[01:39:17] [SPEAKER_02]: smaller than them and then they start
[01:39:18] [SPEAKER_01]: singing numbers some little shop of
[01:39:19] [SPEAKER_01]: horrors yeah that's a fucking cool movie
[01:39:22] [SPEAKER_01]: uh can't throw something out you know i
[01:39:24] [SPEAKER_01]: think would have been good in the mark
[01:39:25] [SPEAKER_01]: wallberg role tobe maguire uh yeah he
[01:39:30] [SPEAKER_03]: i think that good to be maguire would
[01:39:32] [SPEAKER_03]: have been good it's just
[01:39:34] [SPEAKER_03]: working so far from that now no he
[01:39:36] [SPEAKER_03]: doesn't even do movie there's been
[01:39:37] [SPEAKER_03]: so many bad tome maguire performances
[01:39:40] [SPEAKER_03]: and and his great gatsby performance is
[01:39:42] [SPEAKER_03]: so like he look him looking at the
[01:39:44] [SPEAKER_03]: camera and kind of making faces and
[01:39:46] [SPEAKER_03]: like that's what i'm just imagining him
[01:39:48] [SPEAKER_03]: in the happening
[01:39:49] [SPEAKER_01]: uh well i think this is the end of this
