- 0:12Speaker 1: highway and all of a sudden, I don't want to

- 0:16Speaker 1: to go back to the original platform and start searching
- 0:19Speaker 1: for something that's got my interest? Not at aro dot net.

- 0:50Speaker 1: to rock the world. The conversation, Yeah, didn't happen. I
- 0:54Speaker 1: don't know why, it just it happens. I keep all
- 0:57Speaker 1: of my notes. Paths will always cross again. Let me
- 1:01Speaker 1: explain missed opportunity. It's my questions and statements without their answers.
- 1:06Speaker 1: I'm leaving open enough space at the end of every
- 1:08Speaker 1: single question, hoping they'll download the talk and insert their answers.
- 1:13Speaker 1: It's happened seven different times. Missed opportunity is a lost
- 1:18Speaker 1: piece of history, Like a message in a bottle, it's
- 1:20Speaker 1: been tossed out to see it is time to locate
- 1:23Speaker 1: the lost destination. This week we're putting focus on my
- 1:27Speaker 1: missed opportunity with filmmaker Justin Land. Oh yeah, Justin This
- 1:33Speaker 1: dude has grows more than two billion dollars worldwide, which
- 1:38Speaker 1: includes the rebooting of the Fast and Furious franchise star
- 1:41Speaker 1: Trek Beyond, plus the hit TV shows Swat, Magnum Pi
- 1:46Speaker 1: and Warrior for HBO Max. In October of twenty twenty five,
- 1:50Speaker 1: he was set to hit theaters again with Last Days,
- 1:53Speaker 1: which is based on the story of missionary John Allen
- 1:56Speaker 1: Chow's journey to fulfill his life's mission. He took on
- 2:01Speaker 1: the dangerous challenge to Chris cross the planet to share
- 2:04Speaker 1: that faith with the isolated tribe of the North Sentinel Island.
- 2:09Speaker 1: He instantly grabbed newspaper headlines, mainly because he had been
- 2:13Speaker 1: labeled reckless. The movie Last Days goes beyond the headlines,
- 2:18Speaker 1: offering an emotional portrait. Now the invitation to share a
- 2:22Speaker 1: conversation with film producer and director Justin Lynn arrived on
- 2:26Speaker 1: October fifteenth, twenty twenty five. I replied with my famous answer, yeah, perfect,
- 2:33Speaker 1: the seat was set. I would get nine ten a m.
- 2:37Speaker 1: On October twenty second. And the thing about it is, though,
- 2:41Speaker 1: is that once the zoom connection is set, you're thinking,
- 2:44Speaker 1: my god, this is gonna happen. This is going to
- 2:45Speaker 1: be a verbal date. We're going to make a connection
- 2:48Speaker 1: with one of the most biggest powerhouse names in Hollywood. Well,
- 2:52Speaker 1: five days later, the devastating news of the cancelation hit
- 2:55Speaker 1: me and they said, here's the thing, he's working on
- 2:58Speaker 1: another movie. We'll get back to you when we get
- 3:01Speaker 1: the word. It became a missed opportunity. Coming up next,
- 3:07Speaker 1: my questions, my statements without their answers. It's coming up
- 3:12Speaker 1: next on missed Opportunity. Hey, welcome back to Missed Opportunity.
- 3:18Speaker 1: This week, my missed opportunity is with filmmaker Justin Lynn.
- 3:22Speaker 1: These are my questions. In the beginning, you had judgment
- 3:27Speaker 1: against John Chow. I didn't know that the movie is
- 3:31Speaker 1: Last Days. We as fans of movies, are being introduced
- 3:35Speaker 1: to missionary John Alton Chow. I grew up in the
- 3:38Speaker 1: church This guy is not the same type of missionary
- 3:41Speaker 1: that visited us in Billings, Montana. John was on a
- 3:45Speaker 1: mission here. He knew it would be dangerous. I don't know.
- 3:50Speaker 1: Would you say that it was like running into the fire?
- 3:55Speaker 1: Where did you film this movie? Because that is part
- 3:58Speaker 1: of this entire process brings us in as viewers. The
- 4:04Speaker 1: truth of the matter is is that John was actually
- 4:06Speaker 1: a dreamer. He knew that it was time to wake
- 4:09Speaker 1: up and grow forward. When John started making history, not
- 4:15Speaker 1: just here in the United States, but around the world,
- 4:18Speaker 1: how did that affect him emotionally as well as spiritually.
- 4:24Speaker 1: He was standing from meaning at the edge of the world.
- 4:28Speaker 1: It wasn't coming to him. He had to go there.
- 4:32Speaker 1: Fast and furious is still a huge fixture in every
- 4:35Speaker 1: one of our lives. It's fast cars, it's bad guys.
- 4:39Speaker 1: It is you justin Lynn, the filmmaker from Hollywood pulling
- 4:45Speaker 1: in over two billion dollars at the box office. Where
- 4:48Speaker 1: did you learn this art of tapping into our process
- 4:52Speaker 1: of wanting to escape this world? I love it when
- 4:57Speaker 1: an artist or a movie director go into these film
- 5:01Speaker 1: festivals with a positive attitude. The average film fan doesn't
- 5:05Speaker 1: understand what the Sundance Film Festival is really all about
- 5:10Speaker 1: all right, final question, making a connection with the tribe.
- 5:14Speaker 1: We're talking about the one and only missionary John Alton Chowd.
- 5:19Speaker 1: That was his mission to make a connection with this tribe.
- 5:23Speaker 1: No human being on this planet had ever done that before.
- 5:28Speaker 1: There you have it, another missed opportunity, a lost piece
- 5:31Speaker 1: of history. You now know the questions, so let's locate
- 5:35Speaker 1: the answers. The door is always going to be open.
