- 0:52[SPEAKER_00]: I need to tell you the lore.
- 0:53[SPEAKER_00]: No, but people use it and they use it in a different way.
- 0:56[SPEAKER_00]: I got to tell you the never mind.
- 0:58[SPEAKER_00]: Never mind.
- 0:59[SPEAKER_00]: Never mind.
- 1:01[SPEAKER_00]: It's a whole thing.
- 1:02[SPEAKER_00]: It's a whole thing.
- 1:03[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, oh, you have you not heard the lore, which is basically like someone who needs to tell you a story as we should.
- 1:09[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I don't, yeah, I don't, yeah, I don't, yeah, I use it.
- 1:10[SPEAKER_00]: Would you say, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never.
- 1:12[SPEAKER_00]: We're talking about a movie like this.
- 1:13[SPEAKER_00]: No, it works in this movie, it works in this movie for short, for short, for short, for short.
- 1:14[SPEAKER_00]: It does work in this movie, but it works for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for short, for
- 1:25[SPEAKER_01]: I am using the phrase, I'm using the word lower, more because as time goes on, I'm realizing that that is partially what excites me like if that's a big part of what excites me about like going to the movies and then watching certain things like it hit me, it hit me that like the horror movies that I was like really excited about were the ones where
- 1:49[SPEAKER_01]: Where like oh I can now think about the lore and like and what did that mean and and and and and and and you know like it gives me it gives me The movies with homework are fun to me But when it's like but it's made up, you know what I mean?
- 2:05[SPEAKER_01]: It's not like I'm not saying that like I love historical fiction or anything like that like I don't like that level of homework, but I like when it's like
- 2:13[SPEAKER_01]: What is the, whatever it was that you were gonna say next before you stop yourself.
- 2:17[SPEAKER_01]: I get that's what I love about about a lot of movies I think.
- 2:21[SPEAKER_00]: Now it is the lower time of a friend who says that every time a story is about to be story time.
- 2:27[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, oh my god, the lower side is the peppy.
- 2:30[SPEAKER_00]: Anyway, as you were.
- 2:34[SPEAKER_00]: What were you going to say about what were you going to say, what were you going to say you went on this tangent from something you said it was going to be, um, it was going to be, uh, did you know, because James said I'm the best line was like, it's my mother also asked the John know the lore of, uh, the female predators from like, the story.
- 2:54[SPEAKER_01]: I actually don't know, but I, I know that like, uh, so my friend Ashley, who's done the front of the pod also, front of the pod, Ashley,
- 3:04[SPEAKER_01]: auditioned for when they were introducing the female predator they introduced female predator into like some video game series.
- 3:10[SPEAKER_01]: Yes And she auditioned for that.
- 3:12[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, and she did my the pack guys that you both were on the that radio show that did a couple years ago And she gave an example of what her audition for female predator was, but I don't know anything about the lore though What is the goal for female predator so that so that game in particular changed a little bit, but so
- 3:32[SPEAKER_00]: In the world of the predators, the men are basically just soldiers, which is why they always fight the women run, the women like the smart ones who run everything depends on, again, I don't know if this movie is going based on the comic book or that video game, like that video game changed everything.
- 3:47[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, the comic, the female predators are like triple the size of the male predators, like they're massive, they're super smart and they like run the society, whatever.
- 3:57[SPEAKER_00]: But then that video game had more
- 4:02[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, uh, I guess, uh, humanoid characteristics, um, female predators.
- 4:07[SPEAKER_00]: They still, they still ran everything, um, but they were like, more like, but they weren't as big.
- 4:12[SPEAKER_00]: They weren't as big.
- 4:13[SPEAKER_00]: So they were like, you know, female size, but like, slicker and like much better to hunters and they were like smarter.
- 4:20[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm very curious of what this movie does.
- 4:22[SPEAKER_00]: I, I personally feel like they're going to be the big ones.
- 4:26[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 4:26[SPEAKER_00]: I think I think they're going to be massive.
- 4:28[SPEAKER_00]: And again, I think they're going to be really, the whole point is they're really, really smart.
- 4:31[SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, but anyway, yeah, I can't wait for the sequel.
- 4:36[SPEAKER_01]: I'm already already.
- 4:38[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like what are they gonna do?
- 4:39[SPEAKER_01]: I'm on board
- 4:42[SPEAKER_01]: I've never been more on board immediately for something.
- 4:45[SPEAKER_00]: That's like one of the directors been so good.
- 4:47[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, between this, the animated movie and, right, he's been derogging.
- 4:55[SPEAKER_01]: When we auditioned for Black Mirror, when we auditioned for Black Mirror, it said that Dan Track and Park was gonna be the director of that episode.
- 5:02[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, wow, was it?
- 5:03[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
- 5:04[SPEAKER_01]: And I need you to know,

- 5:08[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, Dan track.
- 5:10[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to be Dan tracked and burger didn't happen, but I thought you knew him at that time.
- 5:16[SPEAKER_01]: Because he, yeah, because he, yeah, go ahead.
- 5:17[SPEAKER_00]: No, you go ahead, you go ahead, go ahead.
- 5:19[SPEAKER_01]: Well, just he, he was doing cool edgy stuff like that.
- 5:23[SPEAKER_01]: Like he, I can't remember what, if.
- 5:26[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, there were features that were out at the time, but he was doing the types of things that he was directing and he was doing was like cool edgy sci-fi.
- 5:36[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, he did 10 clover to the lane.
- 5:38[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, okay.
- 5:38[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
- 5:39[SPEAKER_01]: So he had done that by then and it was like.
- 5:42[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, and that was the first feature right to yeah, what made him pop how I knew of him is because there was a guess you could call the short film.
- 5:53[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know, but the portal video game.
- 5:56[SPEAKER_00]: He kind of did like a YouTube movie
- 5:59[SPEAKER_00]: right uh uh kind of based on the game and the facts looked really really good as a matter of fact um this week I listened to his um you know they do these all these youtube series now it's like my best shot and like kind of these intricate things and he talks about making them movie but he didn't have money for the special effects and he went on Twitter
- 6:20[SPEAKER_00]: and posted kind of what he had done so far.
- 6:24[SPEAKER_00]: And between, I think, India, California, New York at some other place, people volunteered to help him get the graphics, right?
- 6:34[SPEAKER_00]: And it got screened as Sundance.
- 6:36[SPEAKER_00]: And he said, basically, like the shot, the wide shot, I cut off, so no one got to see all the work they did.
- 6:41[SPEAKER_00]: But that particular short kind of put them on.
- 6:45[SPEAKER_00]: Which is beautiful, that I love hearing when the short can put somebody on like that.
- 6:50[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and in his first thing was clobbing to me, okay, yeah, yeah.
- 6:56[SPEAKER_02]: And he like, I mean, yeah, I guess he was like this hot up and coming male director at a time where You know me too is happening, but he wasn't a predator bad lands.
