#256: Child's Play (2019) · What's Your (Least) Favorite Scary Movie?

0:06
Hello, what's your least favorite scary movie?
0:12
Why don't you really say it's Scary Movie, The podcast where
0:14
we talk about the good, the bad, the ugly and the absurd in all
0:17
of our favorite? And least favorite scary movies?
0:20
Because we believe every horror movie rightfully has its
0:22
fanbase. Even if we don't always get it.
0:24
My name is Travis. My name's.
0:25
Jesse and welcome everybody to our Child's Play coverage
0:30
ending. Yeah, we have to say goodbye to
0:38
Chucky this week. So yeah, starting it off on a
0:43
somber note there. Jess is going to sing throughout
0:46
the entire episode. This is going to be a solo
0:48
episode and I'm going to be doing this all by myself.
0:52
Friends forever. Because Jesse is that committed
0:56
to the bit. I mean, I'm done now.
0:58
You got to keep going now. I'm already.
1:01
I'm committed to the bit now too.
1:02
I don't. Remember the rest of the words?
1:03
OK, that's just my commitment. Went as far as my knowledge base
1:07
did. We are talking Child's Play
1:09
2019, everybody. We are talking the reboots,
1:13
remake, whatever you want to call it.
1:15
It's a brand new Chucky. It's a brand new story.
1:18
We're going to talk about it. Yeah.
1:19
But before we do, do you have any announcements?
1:22
We did To Be or Not to Be over the weekend.
1:25
Listen to that episode before you watch the movie.
1:28
We don't normally say that. Just do it though.
1:30
Just. Octagames.
1:32
Yeah, not squid games. Octa games not practice.
1:37
It's not time about practice, time about practice.
1:41
Oh God, yeah, yeah. Listen to that one before you
1:43
watch it. Just see it our warning.
1:45
Yeah, like it's very much a draw your own conclusions, but I
1:49
think in this case it's probably helps to like hear opinions
1:52
before you. And it's it's Octa games.
1:55
So like I'm assuming you can figure out what the general
1:57
storyline is going to be. So.
1:59
Not many spoilers there. If you think it's a spoof, think
2:02
again. It's a speed off.
2:04
It's a speed off, and that one you have to listen to the
2:09
episode to get. OK, so all right, Yeah, we had
2:13
that. I don't have a poll because, you
2:16
know, we briefly thought about it there and then we could never
2:19
just think of anything for the poll.
2:21
And then it got put off to the point to where we just didn't do
2:24
it. It's been a weird weekend.
2:26
Yeah, it was a busy weekend on our end, a little bit
2:29
disjointed. So yeah, unfortunately I don't
2:31
have anything for Joyride too, but I hope everybody liked that
2:34
movie. I hope, you know, give it a
2:36
shot. It's a good little sequel.
2:39
If you've not seen any of them, watch them.
2:40
Watch them. Those are fantastic movies.
2:43
I don't know so much about the third.
2:44
You can do that. If you've gotten through one and
2:46
two, go ahead and do 3. It is directed by Declan
2:49
O'Brien. O'Connor may rest in peace so.
2:51
So if you want to inject familiar with his work, if you
2:53
want to inject a little bit of wrong turn into your joyride,
2:56
there you go, you can do it. Wrong ride.
2:58
Wrong ride joyride. Joy turn.
3:01
Joy turn. I'm so confused now.
3:05
Yeah. Joy turn.
3:06
Yeah. OK, we'll just go with that.
3:07
OK, OK. So with all of that, all the
3:10
way, I think we are ready to talk about Child's.
3:13
Play Yeah. OK, So Child's Play released
3:17
June 21st, 2019. We watched it on Tubi, which
3:22
that is where you can currently stream it as well as the Roku
3:26
Channel for anybody that has that out there.
3:29
You can rent it Pluto. TV.
3:31
It's on a Pluto. It didn't show up to me it.
3:33
Was when I googled it, weird? Could be it could be there.
3:38
Hold on. Check it.
3:39
It wasn't on my just watch whenever I looked that up.
3:41
So. So yeah.
3:43
You can rent it on Amazon, Plex, YouTube or Fandango at home.
3:47
Written by Tyler Burton Smith, directed by Lars Klevberg, Music
3:51
by Jason La Rocha. La Rocha.
3:55
I can't you know either one of those Jason La Rocha and Bear
3:59
McCreary special effects makeup by Masters Effects and Pixo
4:04
Mondo starring Aubrey Plaza as Karen.
4:10
We have to cherish this cast because this is going to be the
4:13
probably one and only time we'll get a lot of these people in a
4:17
horror movie for us to talk about South Aubrey Plaza as
4:20
Karen, Gabriel Bateman as Andy. We'll get to.
4:25
Talk about, we will get to talk about him because we're going to
4:27
talk about on him. At some point, yeah.
4:29
Mark Hamill as Chucky, Brian Tyree Henry as Detective, Mike,
4:36
Carlyce Burke as Doreen, Beatrice Kitsos as Fallon and Ty
4:42
Castiglio as Pug. I really hope that's like a
4:47
stage name she chose because it's very close to Beatrice
4:50
Kiddo. It is, yeah, time for our
4:53
favorite game on the show. Budget or budget?
4:59
I remember there's been a lot of hype around this movie coming
5:01
out. I think this is one of those
5:03
rare like budget. Budget Child's Play movies.
5:06
You are correct. This one is actually at the
5:09
threshold for budget. It's a $10 million budget.
5:12
Nice. And it came out around the same
5:15
time as Toy Story 4. Yeah, it did.
5:17
Yeah. So.
5:17
I remember joking that we were going to go see that movie about
5:19
talking toys. Yeah.
5:21
Yeah, I forgot about that. OK.
5:24
So the opening box office was $14 million, so pretty solid.
5:28
We were there I think on opening weekend, weren't we?
5:31
I think we were. Yeah, it was opening weekend.
5:34
We're very shortly after. Yeah.
5:35
Worldwide gross 45,000,000 OK IMDb score 5.7.
5:42
You know. Pretty good, right?
5:44
I I was bracing myself. I was expecting it to be lower
5:47
too, but no 5.7 I'm pleasantly surprised. 5 point ship.
5:52
OK, all right, so I got a theme for 2019 horror movies and I
5:57
feel pretty good about this one. All right.
5:59
I'm excited to hear your theme. So we have some interesting
6:03
casting choices for this movie. Most notably, we have Mark
6:07
Hamill doing Chucky, which is amazing casting.
6:11
Yes, and he's such a talented voice actor.
6:13
He is, yes. So in order to celebrate that, I
6:16
have 3 movies in 2019. Horror movies that feature Star
6:21
Wars actors. I love that.
6:24
Theme yeah, it's pretty cool. And I'm.
6:25
I was worried I had two runaways, like, OK, I got to
6:28
find a third and I had to go deep diving for that third one,
6:31
but I got it. So number one, this is one that
6:35
you and I just watched last week.
6:36
Doctor Sleep we get Owen McGregor.
6:40
Yeah, as Danny, Obi Wan. Obi Wan Danny.
6:44
Yeah. So Doctor Sleep came out October
6:47
21st 2019. Budget was 45 to 55,000,000.
6:52
OK couldn't get an exact figure. Worldwide gross 72 million, IMDb
6:57
7.3. I am still processing my
6:59
feelings about that movie adaptation.
7:01
Yeah, so we watched it for the first time.
7:04
I just read the book for the first time.
7:06
Jesse and I was also on the same page with her I We thought it
7:10
was going to be a more faithful adaptation to the book.
7:13
The 1st 2:00. Thirds are really good.
7:15
Turned out actually being a sequel to the movie.
7:18
Yeah. So I loved it because I've only
7:20
seen the movie. I've never read the book.
7:22
And then watching that movie, I was like, oh, man, this is
7:24
great. I And look, here's the thing.
7:28
I'm not normally a Mike Flanagan guy.
7:30
Like, I know he's got huge fans out there and I respect what he
7:33
does, but usually his stuff doesn't really translate to me.
7:35
But I this movie fucking killed. Like, I love this movie.
7:39
It was really, really good. I think it's really good.
7:41
I just was not prepared for the massive deviations at the end.
7:46
But I also think it was kind of doing some like retroactive
7:51
justice for The Shining is my little pet theory for it.
7:54
Do you? Wanna I I actually heard like
7:57
saw a 'cause I looked it up and apparently he ended the movie
8:01
The way he did because he he thought of it as like an apology
8:07
like sport to Stephen King for how the movie should have ended
8:11
in the 1st. One, and that's what I said.
8:12
I was like, Oh no, this is The Shining's ending.
8:15
Yeah, he confirmed it. He's like, I did it because I
8:17
felt like he needed to have that.
8:18
Done. The dialogue is direct from the
8:20
book The Shining. Yeah, yeah.
8:22
That's a mask, false face direct from the book.
8:26
So I he caught it. Yeah.
8:28
I just, I have a lot, like I said, I have complicated
8:31
feelings about it. I need to sit on it.
8:32
For a little bit. So this is just a little pointer
8:35
out there for you people don't read.
8:37
You'll have a good life. You won't have as many
8:40
conflicting feelings about media.
8:41
Just be a dumb bastard like me. OK movie #2 The dead don't die,
8:51
we get Adam Driver. Oh.
8:53
OK, oh, I. Was thinking like original
8:56
trilogy or original prequels. Mr. Kylo Ren himself, right
9:00
here? Yep.
9:02
So I wish I could have gotten that, but no, like everybody
9:06
else is we we get. Some no, you're fine.
9:08
I just like from it. I was like.
9:11
What? He's a very big character in the
9:12
whole story. Yes, No, he's very in the new
9:15
trilogy. Yeah, he's.
9:16
He's critical. He's my favorite character from
9:18
the entire thing, honestly. Well, in the 1st movie.
9:21
The other two movies you'd kind of be he, he.
9:27
Falls into that little paradigm of pretentious little sad boys.
9:30
Yeah, he does. He.
9:31
Becomes a little sad boy. Could have been the scars, board
9:34
scars, board scars guard. Scars, Lord.
9:39
Scars, Lord. OK.
9:42
That's like the new edition and the new trilogy that's coming
9:45
out. OK, so that released June 14th,
9:49
2019, $2.5 million budget worldwide.
9:53
Gross 15,000,000. I thought you meant Star Wars
9:55
for minute. Oh God no, I was.
9:57
Like 2.5 dead don't die, OK? Yeah, I'm happy for them to get
10:01
that budget for that. Yeah, two and a half million.
10:02
I mean, the guy is an established filmmaker.
10:04
Yeah, apparently makes very weird movies.
10:08
And from what I've seen from everybody that has talked about
10:11
this movie, because, like, everybody's like, I get why
10:12
people don't like it. I love it.
10:14
I personally don't like it. Jesse loves it.
10:16
Yeah, but like, apparently it's due to the guy's style and
10:20
everybody says this is his most accessible movie that he makes.
10:24
So anything else from Jim Jarmusch or something like that?
10:28
I can't remember what his last name was.
10:31
It's weird shit. So the 5.5 is the rating for
10:36
that IMDb. That's like I said, that's fair.
10:38
I remember my older sister text me that she goes, this seems
10:40
like the type of movie you would love.
10:42
And I was like, oh, I love it. Travis hates it.
10:44
I think you would love it. Like it's one of those.
10:47
It's very much like I get why the score is what it is, because
10:50
it's probably a bunch of ones and 10s.
10:52
Yeah, on. The ratings.
10:54
Yeah, I anytime the movie's brought up, I do always have to
10:57
mention the one good thing about it, and it's the scene of Adam
11:00
Driver driving up in the Smart Car.
11:01
Yeah, I was gonna say, Adam Driver is probably also your
11:03
favorite part of this movie, too.
11:05
Yeah, not even Bill Murray. Adam Driver is the best part of
11:07
this. Yeah.
11:09
OK. And the final movie.
11:11
Oh. My God, his last name's driver
11:14
and he loved the scene where he's driving.
11:16
I've always made that connection in my head.
11:18
Yeah, 'cause he's always, you know, he's driving, driver
11:22
driving. OK, so final movie.
11:25
OK, three from hell. Oh, Rob.
11:30
Zombies film. You wanna, you want me to tell
11:34
you who the Star Wars person this year?
11:36
Yes. Clint Howard.
11:39
Which Star Wars movie is Clint Howard?
11:42
One that you have not seen he is in the solo Han Solo story.
11:47
The Han Solo movie that has like a Danny or Danny Glover is like
11:54
the one dude in it. Yeah, I can't.
11:58
I'm not a Star Wars guy, people. I'm sorry.
12:01
But yeah, so he's a character in that.
12:04
Like I said, I had to go diving for somebody.
12:06
I mean, I didn't question it because Clint Howard's in
12:08
fucking. Everything.
12:09
That's why I went to him. I'm like Clint Howard,
12:11
guarantee. He's got to be in something Star
12:13
Wars related. He's going to be like a big
12:15
character or something, but he's going to be there.
12:17
And I knew it. I fucking.
12:18
Called it. I love that man.
12:20
I know, me too. All right, so that released
12:23
September 16th, 2019 $3,000,000 Budget OK 2.2 million gross 5.4
12:31
IMDb. Rob Zombie is also very divisive
12:33
I feel like. He often times doesn't get big
12:37
no numbers, but I remember like as I think this one even they're
12:42
usually really limited releases. Yeah, this one probably recouped
12:46
the cost with the streaming and DVD.
12:47
We own it on DVD. Yeah, I was gonna say, I feel
12:49
like we're some of the few who, like, make a point of going to
12:52
see Rob Zombie movies in theaters.
12:54
I love his stuff I yeah but I get why his is not accessible.
12:58
To his is a very specific kind of style.
13:01
Yeah, it's my style. Yeah.
13:03
OK. So on the tag lines.
13:08
OK, All right. So I got a couple here.
13:10
OK, A. Handful.
13:12
Yeah, yeah, I think it's actually for each finger.
13:17
Got five of them right here. And a lot of them are kind of
13:22
all the same, just different rewording.
13:24
So First off, more than a toy, he's your best friend.
13:31
OK. The boy's best friend.
13:35
That's dogs, OK. Friends to the end.
13:39
This is the end, friend. Prepare to meet your new best
13:43
friend. I think that would be like a fun
13:46
tagline because it is kind of like.
13:49
A new introduction, new Chucky. Yeah, and finally, play time is
13:54
over. I feel like a lot of these were
13:57
just like like redos of the original child's Play lines.
14:03
Kind of, yeah. And there was one that was
14:05
actually on the poster that is just from the producers of IT.
14:10
OK, not even Stephen King. You can't even say Stephen King.
14:13
Just say it. Well, I think they mean the
14:15
like. The movie, yeah.
14:17
Yeah, cuz it was like a big thing at this time.
14:21
OK, so that's it for that. I think we can move on to fun
14:23
facts now. OK, I wanna hear all about it.
14:29
OK, tell. Me all your thoughts on buddy.
14:36
OK, so I'm in a weird mood right now.
14:44
All right, so it was first announced in the early 20 tens,
14:47
before a Curse of Chucky even came out.
14:50
Oh, wow. OK.
14:51
But it ended up being quietly cancelled.
14:54
MGM ended up revitalizing the whole thing.
14:58
They announced a new one in July of 2018 with a whole new
15:03
creative team. So with the help of producers
15:08
Seth Graham Smith and David Kalzenberg, I think that's the
15:12
name. Yep, those are the producers of
15:14
it. They were able to assemble the
15:17
cast for this movie. So they started off with Aubrey
15:20
Plaza Bateman and Brian Tyree Henry.
15:26
And then after that, they shot the shot.
15:29
And they're like, all right, let's ask.
15:31
Let's ask Mark Hamill. Choice number one.
15:34
I got a quote from that whole process.
15:36
Yeah. Graham Smith says we asked,
15:39
thinking there was no way whatever happened, and he said
15:41
yes, he was the first choice, a big swing, and it just happened.
15:45
I mean, first of all, to have an icon reimagining an iconic
15:48
character and it is an incredible gift.
15:51
And to have an actor and voice performer who is as celebrated
15:54
as Mark Hamill and as gifted as he is, I mean, it's incredible.
15:57
He's taking on this challenge with a huge amount of energy and
16:00
really come at it in a very serious way.
16:03
And it's really something to watch him create a character and
16:05
sort of embody it. And I get to sit there and watch
16:08
Mark Hamill record. It's just incredible.
16:11
It's funny that you're talking about all this Mark Hamill stuff
16:13
and you brought up Stephen King because of it.
16:16
There was like this whole thing going on where like Mark Hamill,
16:19
I guess he was involved in a recent adaptation of a different
16:21
Stephen King book. Oh really?
16:23
And he was so excited about it. And then he was like just
16:25
tweeting about how excited he was about Stephen King and like
16:28
he was seated near him at like an award ceremony or something.
16:31
And like, like Stephen King was like tweeting back about like
16:34
how excited he was to be seated near Mark Hamill.
16:36
It was like a little bro fest happening.
16:38
I fucking. Love Mark Hamill man, he's so
16:41
look, if you're going to get anybody to replace Brad Duriff,
16:46
Mark Hamill is one of the most talented voice actors out there
16:50
in the game. He is so fucking good.
16:52
Yeah, I was going to say the 1-2 punch of him in Aubrey Plaza for
16:55
me, like. That's enough to absolve them of
16:57
any of. This like I will absolutely give
17:00
this a chance. You don't have any.
17:01
You don't have Brad Duriff, but you have Aubrey Plaza and Mark
17:04
Hamill. OK, just let's let's do it that
17:09
we're on a Queen slate there. Yeah, that's a good way to do.
17:12
It and like we said last week, go into this open heart, open
17:15
mind. OK, back to your fun facts.
17:16
Sorry. You're good.
17:18
All right, so Masters effects took six weeks to prepare and
17:21
assemble 7 animatronic puppets, and they were all practical too.
17:26
So all of the stuff in this is like actual functioning
17:28
animatronic puppetry that they're doing there.
17:31
Each one of them came with interchangeable arms and hands,
17:34
and they all performed a myriad of different actions that were
17:38
required for the character. OK, so I think that that's
17:42
pretty cool. We actually, we are now at the
17:44
age of these movies where they can make fully functional
17:48
machines. Like I thought that was one of
17:51
the coolest things about watching this movie.
17:53
Usually when they like, even with the more recent Chucky
17:56
movies, when he walks, it's still clearly like a puppet type
17:59
thing, but it's right here. We had scenes of him walking
18:02
with Andy and it's just like he's actually walking, which was
18:05
super impressive. I thought they did a great job
18:07
with that. Bear McCreary composed a score
18:11
with a toy orchestra, meaning he had a toy piano.
18:15
Hurdy Gurdy's accordions, plastic guitars and automatons.
18:21
I love that. That's so fun.
18:24
Isn't that cool? I would never even like, I have
18:27
to go back and listen to that now because I want to, like,
18:29
notice that. I didn't notice it when we were
18:31
watching this last night, but that's super cool.
18:34
They named the dolls Buddy Dolls instead of Good Guy Dolls as a
18:39
reference to the original inspiration of the dolls, which
18:42
are the My Buddy dolls. Yeah.
18:44
This movie released on the same day as Toy Story 4, as you
18:47
mentioned, so in order to get some good marketing going, they
18:51
released several posters of Chucky back in April brutally
18:55
killing the Toy Story characters.
18:58
No, I want to look up some of these posters right now because
19:02
I've never seen these, I don't think.
19:04
I want to see these. I mean, I don't, but I do, you
19:08
know? Yeah, it's probably upsetting,
19:11
but also kind of awesome. I remember these.
19:14
Yeah, yeah. OK.
19:17
They're not that graphic. OK, so there's one of like,
19:20
what? He's standing there.
19:23
Oh, no. And he just walks back and he
19:25
it's just like his hat and his hand hanging on it.
19:27
He's a story, but it's a sad one.
19:29
Then Buzz, he's got his feet there off and he's just kind of
19:34
off screen and Chucky's holding a ray gun to him right there.
19:38
Oh, the Piggy Bank. He's got the hammer and he's
19:41
busted. No, that's graphic.
19:43
That is graphic. T Rex is fried with the
19:48
magnifying glass. Oh fuck.
19:51
This is getting worse the more we go on.
19:53
Do we have Swinky? Oh, Swinky is being roasted of a
19:56
hot dog. Oh, oh man, my.
20:01
Feelings are hurt. That's it.
20:03
Those are them. Wait, wait.
20:04
There's Mr. Potato Head. He's just got a knife in his
20:07
head. How you gonna do Rex?
20:10
Like. That but peep what happened to
20:12
you. She's just there.
20:14
She made it. She didn't get hurt.
20:16
Man. Man, the fucking Piggy Bank is
20:19
the worst one. Yeah.
20:20
What's that character's name again?
20:21
Pig. No piggy.
20:25
Piggy Bank. No, now I can't remember his
20:27
fucking name. Wink.
20:29
No. What's the pig in story?
20:35
Toy. Toy Story called?
20:38
Pam Yeah. OK.
20:40
Yeah. Oh man, that one was upsetting.
20:42
Yeah, well if it makes you feel any better to put it on a level
20:47
playing field, they also did ones for Annabelle which came
20:50
out on June 26th, so like the next week after of him killing
20:54
Annabelle as well. Annabelle's evil, though.
20:57
Exactly. That's what I'm saying.
20:58
Like that one that's, you know, people can live with that one.
21:03
All right? So I wanted to close this thing
21:06
off with our boy, the guy that started it all, Don Mancini, and
21:10
see what he thought on the whole thing.
21:12
Thank you, I am very curious to hear his perspective.
21:15
OK, well he's not a fan, did not like it.
21:19
I've got a whole quote here from OK this is when this is before
21:23
the movie released. This is an interview with Bloody
21:25
discussing MGM retained the rights the 1st movie.
21:28
So they were booting that. They asked David Kirschner and I
21:32
if we wanted to be executive producers.
21:34
We said no thank you because we have our on our our ongoing
21:38
thriving business with the Chucky.
21:40
Obviously my feelings were hurt. You know I had just done 2
21:43
movies. Forgive me if I sound defensive.
21:46
We're both 83% on Rotten Tomatoes.
21:48
Even though they didn't get theatrical releases, they were
21:50
well regarded and I did create the character and nurture the
21:54
franchise for three fucking decades.
21:57
So when someone says, Oh yeah, we would love to have your name
22:00
on the film, it was hard not to feel like I was being
22:03
patronized. They just wanted our approval,
22:06
which I strenuously denied them. I hesitate to say too much about
22:10
it because I don't want to sound like I'm belly aching too much,
22:13
but they're producers of that movie are the producers of It.
22:16
How would they feel if there was some legal loophole that allowed
22:20
David Kirchner and I had to swoop in and make our own IT
22:23
movie with our own version of Pennywise and say, hey, guys, we
22:25
would love to put your names on it?
22:27
I imagine they wouldn't like it. That's how I feel.
22:30
The people who are making that movie, they don't know how
22:32
that's going to affect my livelihood.
22:34
It's not just a paycheck. It's my very personal, oh, it's
22:38
very personal. MGM screwing with that
22:41
potentially. OK, so that's how he ends it.
22:45
So from what I've seen, and I looked at online discussions
22:47
about this, and one of the things that he was also kind of
22:51
upset with is this was kind of coinciding with his whole thing
22:55
with the Chucky TV series, which, you know, that's if
23:01
you're bringing in this new Chucky and it's gonna be maybe
23:05
garnering like new fans and they see that Chucky, they're maybe
23:08
gonna want this new Chucky, the different, the buddy Chucky,
23:12
Yeah, that they're doing instead of like going to the TV show.
23:15
So yeah, he was kind of not a big fan of the whole thing.
23:19
Felt like he got screwed over a bit.
23:21
So yeah, a little bit of a downer there for the fun facts,
23:24
but I thought it was important to see how you.
23:26
Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely.
23:28
OK, so yeah, that's it for fun facts.
23:31
So let's get on into our good, bad, ugly, absurd.
23:34
OK all. Right.
23:36
So my good, the casting I think is good.
23:40
There's a lot of really good humor.
23:42
We we discovered that Bateman was 1415 at the time of filming.
23:48
We would have guessed 9 or 10. That blew our minds, which
23:53
that's like looking young. It's a gift as an actor.
23:56
So that's not to make fun of him, but it's just like we were
24:00
kind of caught off guard. He's.
24:01
Going to be like Jonathan from Terrifier where he's just going
24:04
to be like a kid until he's in college.
24:07
So I, I, I think that the kids were at the right age for the
24:12
types of jokes they were doing were really funny.
24:15
Like the whole like this one's for Tupac or they're like
24:18
teaching him to like scare shame and like cursing and making him
24:23
say things like Dick cheese. Like, all of that feels very
24:26
like, realistic. My favorite is whenever
24:30
Detective Mike is walking by and they're like the fuzz is here or
24:33
whatever, or like, what was it that they say I didn't?
24:37
I don't know exactly. Like play it, play it like cool
24:40
it out, like be quiet, the fuzz is here.
24:42
And then he's like says out loud, play it cool.
24:44
The fuzz is here. I don't.
24:45
Think they say the fuzz because. That's what I'm saying.
24:48
I'm trying. I don't know the like what it
24:50
was actually said, but that's the gist of it.
24:52
Like hey, chill the fuck out, cops here and Truckee basically
24:54
boards out. Hey chill the fuck out, cops
24:56
here. And like, Mike sees and he's
24:58
like fucking kids. Yeah, there's just like a lot of
25:02
good things. I think there's a funny moment
25:03
too, where like Andy, it was like it was Andy Sup and Chucky.
25:09
He was calling him Andy Sup. Nice to meet you, Andy.
25:11
Sup. That's funny.
25:13
And he tries to name him Han Solo, and he goes, Did you say
25:15
Chucky? Yeah, that was a good little
25:19
Easter egg, right? There like, there's a lot of
25:21
really funny moments like that and it's not like distractingly
25:25
funny, it's just there. It's not like it Chapter 2, if
25:29
we're going to be talking about the producers of it where they
25:32
were like, oh, let's make this really funny, funny, funny.
25:35
But this movie, like it balanced all that stuff.
25:38
They had like a good, they had the UPS and the downs.
25:41
Yeah, yeah. And I think it also had like a
25:44
lot of good heart moments, like, you know, Andy and Karen, like
25:48
they're really relationship. And I like that we get to see
25:50
Andy at a different age too, because you do see that
25:53
progression in in that relationship for their family
25:56
dynamic. Yeah.
25:57
And I think that that was important.
26:00
I liked their dynamic and this better than the first one.
26:05
I felt like it was more believable.
26:07
Yeah. Well, I mean, it's like, it's,
26:09
it's more relatable. Yeah.
26:11
And like he's at an age where like, you know, as opposed to
26:14
like adorable little tiny Andy. And we've talked about how much
26:18
we love him, but like, Dang, this kid is putting a lot of
26:21
pressure on himself. It makes a little bit more sense
26:23
for Andy at this age to kind of be more aware of why he's
26:26
putting this pressure on himself.
26:27
The. Middle schooler.
26:28
Yeah. Something like that, yeah.
26:30
So I just I and I think it's I'll talk about this more in the
26:36
ugly, but I think that this does a good enough job of being a
26:39
completely separate thing. We're the only thing that's
26:41
really in common are like the names of the characters and the
26:45
fact that it's a killer doll. Yeah.
26:48
Yeah, I think it is almost like a different enough story, like
26:53
it's a different enough retelling to separate it.
26:55
They make it their own thing. Get confused, Yeah.
26:57
Yeah. They, they they set themselves
26:59
apart, which I appreciate. Yeah.
27:02
OK. Is that if you're good?
27:04
Yeah. All right, am I good?
27:07
I, I loved how they modernized Chucky in this year.
27:12
Like they made him a whole other type of doll, like where he like
27:16
connects to Wi-Fi and stuff. It's very much a product that
27:20
would be released today. Yes, absolutely, absolutely.
27:24
You would get a doll like that and be like we can connect to
27:26
your existing like Apple products or like Google Blink
27:31
products or you know, whatever. Yeah, it's, it's really neat.
27:35
I thought that they did a great job with that.
27:37
Apparently they said that they did like the buddy with an eye
27:39
at the end to like get the like Wi-Fi type thing where it can
27:43
connect with the Internet and stuff.
27:45
Yeah, yeah, yeah, That makes sense.
27:47
Yeah. And like you, I thought it like
27:49
set itself apart and it did its own thing.
27:53
Like it really, really well. Like it.
27:56
I don't I I feel like I'm watching a different movie, yes
28:00
than the child's play movies, which really that's what I want
28:03
with this right here. I don't want them to beat for
28:05
beat remake the first Child's Play because like, if I want to
28:08
do that, I'm just going to watch Child's Play.
28:10
Yeah. Yeah, I like the new Chucky's
28:14
personality in this. I thought that that is a great
28:17
twist on this right here, because in the original, Chucky
28:20
is just a serial killer that is trying to take over Andy's body.
28:23
But in this right here, he's just trying to like he's seeking
28:26
his approval the entire time. And that's the thing like the,
28:30
the whole AI thing is so like relevant to today's discussions.
28:36
So like having that AI like go bad.
28:38
I mean, it's a story we've been telling for decades now, but
28:41
it's more, it's more and more. Yeah, like it's a thing that's
28:44
actually happening. But I and it back to that humor
28:47
thing like there's that great moment because we'd seen the
28:49
like commercial where he was like, don't forget your science
28:52
book. And this buddy is trying to do
28:55
the same things like don't forget your science book and
28:57
he's hanging him off a roll of toilet paper.
28:59
Dude, I. Love that so much.
29:01
See, the other great thing about this Chucky is they, they make
29:05
him broken. Yeah.
29:07
It gives him like these little quirks that sets them apart from
29:10
all the other ones where he's like, he's like it's own thing.
29:13
Like he will like, hey, I made a present for you and it's just
29:15
like a broken stick with a bow on it.
29:17
Yeah. He's like, I love that.
29:18
I would love that so much if that was my toy because that
29:21
means more to me than if he like actually went and got me a real
29:24
present. Yeah.
29:25
I'm like, oh man, this guy just loves me.
29:26
Yeah. He loves me off to give me.
29:28
Yeah, he's, he's a broken little guy.
29:30
He's. He's trying.
29:32
He's. Oh my God, this buddy doll is
29:35
Zoe. Oh my God.
29:37
She knows what she's supposed to do as a cat but doesn't really
29:40
understand and she's just trying her best.
29:42
You're right. This is Zoe.
29:44
Yeah, Like, and that's the thing.
29:46
Like they make him sympathetic in this movie.
29:49
I feel sorry for him. Yeah, there were multiple times
29:53
that we looked at each other last night.
29:54
We were like, oh. Yeah, like I, I it's like, kudos
30:01
to them for making Chucky an actual sympathetic character,
30:04
somebody that I care about. Yeah.
30:06
Whenever I watch Chucky before, I don't care for him, you know,
30:09
I enjoy watching him. He's fun to he's.
30:12
Entertaining. He's not complicatedly a bad
30:15
guy. But when something bad happens
30:16
to him or you get stabbed or shoved in the trash or
30:18
something, I you know, it's funny, yeah, but here I'm sad.
30:22
Oh, he's yeah, he didn't. Mean to he just wants you to
30:24
love him he wants to be your best friend he's.
30:27
A dumb little computer. Yeah, so I like honestly, like
30:32
all of the credit goes to them for actually doing this.
30:35
This is these are the things that make this thing stand apart
30:38
and make it a good adaptation. Yeah, in my opinion.
30:42
And one last thing, it's a minor thing, but I really think it's
30:45
cool for the character. He's walking out the gate.
30:48
Yeah. So whenever he is like, you
30:49
know, we don't have to, like, disguise his walking and
30:52
maneuvering around the entire time he's out and about no
30:54
matter what. Yeah.
30:55
So that's already out out there. We don't have to worry about
30:57
that being introduced as a story element.
31:00
So I thought that that was really cool and allowed us to
31:02
get to the action without having to, like, play these little
31:05
games the entire time. Like, we know the fucking
31:07
character walks. Let's just have him walk, yeah?
31:10
And then we we find that tension in other ways.
31:12
And I think that also makes sense if you're doing a remake
31:14
in 2019 where we know technology is more advanced, we know kids
31:18
aren't going to just play with normal regular, like non moving
31:21
dolls anymore. Like yeah, it makes sense to
31:23
adapt it for the times. Yeah.
31:26
So yeah, like, super impressed with how this movie handled
31:29
itself. Yeah.
31:30
All right. Bad stuff.
31:34
They did Aubrey dirty with her makeup.
31:37
It's so bad and so distracting the entire time.
31:39
You think of the like tracks with the character though she's
31:42
a stressed out mom. I don't it's like her face
31:46
makeup is like 3 shades darker than her neck.
31:49
You've been noticing this a lot lately on people.
31:51
What if it's a new TV? Yeah, like something in our TV
31:55
settings are just like highlighting how bad makeup.
31:57
Like foundation, it might just be because it's bigger.
32:00
Like now. Yeah, I can actually see the
32:01
makeup. Yeah, I mean that and also like
32:07
I appreciate they gave us a new design of the doll, but second
32:10
least favorite design behind the one in Curse of Chucky.
32:14
So my bad. Just to jump in here with you, I
32:18
wrote down hate the new look. Yeah.
32:20
Then I crossed it out and I wrote it grows on you like,
32:24
because as I'm watching, I'm like, you know what?
32:26
I don't hate it. I don't really hate it anymore.
32:28
It looks bad in posters and then stills, but once you're actually
32:32
watching the movie, I actually I think it works again.
32:35
It sets itself apart. No, I'm I don't agree.
32:41
OK, that's fair. I'm glad it's different and I'm
32:44
glad that with like the releases, they've got like the
32:46
Buddy too that's coming out. They've got the different
32:48
designs that are gonna be there and I'm very excited to.
32:51
I want to talk about one of them in my absurd, but I yeah, OK,
32:57
that's fair. I'm not a fan.
33:01
Man, my bad. I don't really have too much.
33:11
I feel like it's weird to jam like the automated cars into the
33:15
thing at some point. I guess it was just like a
33:17
device to get a kill for buddy for Chucky.
33:20
But like it was weird. They kind of like tried to like
33:23
Fist. That thing in there like is
33:27
Fist. The verb you really wanted to
33:29
use. It's not, but it happened and
33:33
I'm going to, I'm going to die on the hill.
33:35
This is in there. I just like, I don't know, I
33:42
felt forced. I can't really say too much bad
33:46
though. Like really, there's really just
33:48
not much that I didn't I didn't care for.
33:52
OK. I will say one additional thing
33:55
is that I do think it's maybe a little bit unbelievable that
33:57
everybody's got Caslon products, especially like this housing
34:03
area that seems like maybe it's lower income.
34:06
Yeah. The fact that they would all
34:07
have stuff that connects to the Caslon cloud just feels a little
34:11
unrealistic to me. Unless it's like the affordable
34:13
brand. Maybe.
34:15
Yeah, it could be like the Walmart brand of like, you know,
34:18
AI technology. Because like, I thought that was
34:21
going to be why he couldn't connect to the cloud at first,
34:23
because it would be like, Oh, well, we don't have any other
34:25
Caslon products that would have, that would have been smart,
34:27
yeah. That would have been
34:28
interesting, but you. Know it is what it is.
34:33
OK. Ugly OK, so obviously the whole
34:36
thing with Don Mancini, I I do like this movie.
34:38
I will defend it as not being a bad movie, but the beef behind
34:41
the scenes I do think kind of taints it a little bit for me.
34:46
I mean, I hate that for him because I get it.
34:49
This is his character. This is his baby.
34:50
It's his franchise. And he has said it's very
34:52
personal for him, especially that first one when he wrote it,
34:55
like he was pulling a lot from some of his own experiences
34:57
growing up in a single parent household like.
35:01
I think he was involved in the original remake that they were
35:06
gonna be doing too, but they moved on, I guess because he
35:09
just started doing his own thing.
35:11
Yeah, so I just, I like, it's complicated because I like this
35:17
movie and I do think it's good, but I don't like what it does
35:21
for Don Mancini cuz he's he's built an entire franchise and
35:26
one that has been celebrated. But I also think this one's
35:28
different enough, and luckily it didn't end up hurting the Chucky
35:33
franchise. No, I didn't.
35:34
And that's I guess his concern also was like, what if they do
35:38
sequels? Yeah and stuff which that could
35:40
really box him out cuz his movie's not getting but like
35:44
theatrical releases. These movies are.
35:46
Yeah, I can see it. I mean, at the same time, like,
35:52
I don't know, like these movies, like, like any horror franchise
35:58
has one of these, but it never, it never overtakes the original
36:02
stuff. Yeah.
36:04
Any time the original person is involved with anything, that
36:07
always, like, elevates with the community.
36:10
People are more interested to see.
36:11
Like if John Carpenter came back for a Halloween movie, people
36:15
are like, oh, I'm gonna fucking watch that.
36:17
Yeah. You know, like, I get where he's
36:20
coming from, but at the same time, I don't like, I mean, it's
36:23
still like it, it's even making it a thing for other people.
36:28
Like, it's still, it's making the brand out there.
36:31
People will be like child's play.
36:32
OK, let's watch the movies then let's go back and revisit these.
36:35
Oh, hey, they still have a whole other set of movies going on
36:38
from the original storyline. What are these about?
36:40
You know, yeah, I can understand where he's coming from, but at
36:44
the same time I think he, like it also could have helped.
36:48
And I think maybe some of that bitterness is that he didn't get
36:50
to release his other movies theatrically.
36:52
I think that's part of it, yeah. Honestly, I love Don missing.
36:55
I mean. I think it's probably kind of
36:56
part of that whole, like, Hollywood only does remakes
36:58
anymore. Like, yeah.
37:00
This is like past that time, Yeah.
37:02
But yeah, like I just like, I get it.
37:06
But at the same time, I don't think it this is as bad as he
37:09
was making it out to be. But then again, something I
37:13
think, and I'm not going through that whole thing.
37:15
So for him it probably was that bad.
37:18
But we're speaking in hindsight here, really.
37:21
That's that's the big thing there.
37:22
And. I'm going to say the other ugly
37:24
is just Shane. Yeah, Shane, he was in my
37:27
uglies. Too.
37:27
He was already terrible and then like at one point I was like oh
37:30
you fucking bastard because I forgot how his storyline ends.
37:34
I know, I forgot about that too. Yeah.
37:36
I was like, oh man, this fucking guy.
37:38
Yeah, man, he's already shitty. Now he's just that fucking
37:42
scumbag. He already sucked, now you're a
37:43
whole ass Hoover, you know? Good, that's pretty good.
37:48
Thank you did you come up with that on this fight?
37:50
Yep nice OK the only I cuz I had Shane too but the only other
37:56
ugly I had was Chucky strangling the cat and killing it.
38:00
I blocked that out from my mind. Don't kill the cat.
38:03
Don't kill the cat, save the cat.
38:05
Save the cat. Yes.
38:08
Just I hated that. I mean, I, you see the cat, you
38:14
see the way that he looks at it that one time, you know
38:15
something bad's going to happen. I thought at one point I was
38:19
like, oh, OK. He just strangles it for a
38:20
second, and then Andy stops and that's that.
38:23
But then later on, he kills the cat.
38:25
And not only that, he, Andy, he plays recordings of the cat's
38:29
death while Andy is trying to sleep.
38:31
That's dark as fuck. Yeah.
38:34
Man, that's oh God, OK. Absurd.
38:40
I they're watching Texas Chance on Massacre 2 and they're
38:45
fucking watching it out of order.
38:48
First of all, although I do love later they make a nod to like
38:51
them talking about how improbable the movie is.
38:54
You didn't catch it last night. And I was like, oh, they're,
38:56
they're making fun of themselves.
38:58
Yeah, I didn't get that. Yeah.
39:00
And then also, so one of the designs for the Buddy 2 is a
39:06
bear, which I love it. That absolutely would have been
39:08
the one I would have wanted. There's one point when they're
39:12
having the whole store massacre and it's like a bear drags
39:17
somebody into an aisle and then pops back out kind of like
39:21
burping, like implied that he ate that dude in two seconds.
39:25
I something about that just sent me like it was amazing.
39:31
I like that whole thing. I thought that that was cool
39:33
because it also incorporated that idea of him having multiple
39:36
chuckies. Yeah.
39:37
Again, in this movie too. Yeah, it was nice.
39:40
Yeah. My episode also comes back to
39:42
the Texas Chainsaw Massacre, but it's the fact that Chucky learns
39:45
how to be a slasher by watching Texas Chainsaw Massacre, too.
39:50
He learns all the moves from that.
39:52
That's where he gets the face ripping off.
39:53
That's where he gets the stab emotions.
39:55
Yeah, he gets the one liners. Yeah, all from Toby Hooper and
40:00
Bill Mosley. I wish there would have been one
40:03
part. Where he says somebody a dog
40:05
Dick. Lick my plate you dog Dick.
40:08
I wish you would have said that. Even if he just like has like a
40:11
place doing the dish. Does it to Shane at one point.
40:17
Yeah, Oh dude, that would have been amazing if they would have
40:20
done that. Like my plane lick my plate dog
40:23
Dick Shane like. Yeah, that would have been
40:27
amazing. All right, So what do you rated?
40:31
Honestly, I think I'm gonna give it an 8.
40:33
I think it's a really solid movie.
40:34
I know a lot of people like, and this is not rating it up against
40:39
the other Child's Play movies. This is just like as its own
40:42
individual movie. I think it's good, I think it's
40:44
effective. It tells it retells the story,
40:47
but tells it in its own way, and I'm OK with it.
40:50
I mean, even if it were part of the child's play, like if you
40:55
are putting up against those, I think it makes the character
40:58
interesting and reinventing it. But they kind of almost do this
41:01
with certain chuckies in the TV show.
41:04
Yeah. Oh yeah, absolutely.
41:06
So I guess that they kind of get that put in there.
41:08
But yeah, up until this point, we hadn't had like a refresh on
41:12
Chucky before. OK, I'm gonna give it a nine.
41:17
OK. Yeah.
41:18
This movie, like, it's just, it's really good.
41:22
Like, I just don't know what else to say about it.
41:24
It's an amazing remake. It's one of the better ones, and
41:27
that is a controversial opinion, I believe, of all the slasher
41:32
franchises out there. But this is one of the better
41:35
remakes out there. We've had this conversation with
41:37
people before, like, no, we actually like the 2019 Child's
41:39
Play. And people were like, whoa,
41:41
whoa, whoa, what? And I'm like, it's a good movie.
41:43
For a whole lot of people, it's just hard for them to get past
41:46
it not being Diamond or, Yeah, Diamond Sini and Brad Dorf and
41:50
all of them. Yeah, I get that.
41:52
But if you just give it a chance as its own thing, it's a great
41:56
movie. OK, so 8 1/2.
42:00
Yeah. Nice.
42:01
Pretty good. All right, we're ready to roll.
42:03
Ready. All right, we start off with
42:06
Henry Caslan introducing your new best buddy.
42:09
It connects to all Caslan products, it's self learning and
42:12
guess what, it much like Jacob for us, imprints on us AGI.
42:19
Baddie, let's rewind for a little bit.
42:21
Let's go back to absurd. I forgot this motherfucker
42:26
imprints on a baby right out the gate.
42:29
We go Twilight right out the gate in this thing.
42:33
I drew a fucking. I drew myself side eyeing over
42:35
here on the notes you. Had the same reaction to this
42:38
that you did the first time we watched Breaking Dawn Part 1
42:41
where you were like did he just imprint on a baby?
42:46
I mean, that movie, like it traumatized me.
42:49
Like if there's any imprinting whatsoever, I don't care if it's
42:51
like digital or like AI, but it happened to a baby and then
42:55
that's upsetting. Another CGI baby.
42:57
I don't like the implication of that I would have don't let
43:01
Jacob near this thing. It'll be your best friend, your
43:04
protector, a Big Brother. Maybe when the time's right.
43:07
Totally not gonna fuck it. Not gonna fuck.
43:10
No, I'm definitely not thinking about fucking that.
43:13
OK, we need to go. All right, we cut to a warehouse
43:17
and we see a bunch of extras that were given very vague
43:21
instructions on what to do. So like one of them's like
43:23
braiding doll's hair, the other's like fresh, fresh,
43:27
fresh. You know what I thought was
43:28
interesting about this? This is like, clearly, it's like
43:31
a China factory. That's like making these dolls.
43:34
A China factory? Do you want to try and rephrase
43:36
that? Chinese factory.
43:38
There you go. Yes, that is making these Chucky
43:40
dolls. And I thought it was interesting
43:43
that all of the software is in English.
43:46
A lot of countries are bilingual.
43:49
A lot of countries. A lot of like countries, well,
43:53
and I don't know, we don't know that this is China.
43:55
It could be like Taiwan. Could be Taiwan?
43:57
No, no, Taiwan is either. But I'm just saying it like it's
44:00
not uncommon for people in other countries to be bilingual.
44:04
It's a lot. It's a lot more normalized.
44:07
Oh I know, especially Japan. Japan has signs in English
44:11
throughout the whole place. But yeah, so this one worker who
44:15
is tired because he works a very boring job gets slapped by his
44:20
supervisor. Pretty sure that's a violation.
44:23
And he, in revenge, decides that he's gonna take off all safety
44:27
protocols for this one particular doll.
44:29
And then he does it. And then he assembles the doll.
44:32
And then he jumps out the window.
44:33
Yep. And I liked this because this
44:36
was a good nod to child's play, too.
44:38
So I was about to say yeah, when they were like, spinning this as
44:41
like saying like, oh, we think that this was just a disgruntled
44:44
worker at one of our factories, like overrode the card inside
44:47
the good guy doll and. That's time.
44:49
It's the actual truth. The actual explanation.
44:54
And you know another good thing about this?
44:55
I like that we move away from the voodoo of it all.
44:57
Yeah, like they they give it a practical reason to happen.
45:00
Yep. OK, So we cut over to Zed Mart
45:03
and we get Aubrey Plaza. She's there.
45:06
She's working. She hates her job.
45:08
We get a man storming. She's.
45:09
Working at returns too, so. Oh, that's the worst.
45:12
A normal customer is already like 5050 if they're going to be
45:15
a nightmare, but people come to returns.
45:17
Yeah, we get a good case of that here.
45:20
We get a man coming in like you didn't tell me the thing.
45:22
It was Ginger. And she was like, well, it's on
45:26
the box and the description. I'm very sorry you didn't read
45:29
that. Also, there's a window and you
45:30
can see the doll right there. I'm sorry you failed to notice
45:32
the color of its hair. He's like my daughter wanted the
45:34
blonde one. She goes, yeah, that's the new
45:36
one and it's not being released for.
45:38
I think she hasn't said that. I don't think it's OK to say
45:40
that. I was like, I don't think you.
45:41
Can say that, yeah. And I feel like that was more of
45:44
an Aubrey Plaza. Environment.
45:46
Rather than actually in the. Script A lot of times in this
45:48
movie she just is Aubrey Plaza and I appreciate that cuz I just
45:53
fucking love Aubrey Plaza. Listen, you go to Aubrey Plaza
45:55
cuz you want Aubrey. Plaza.
45:56
Yeah, exactly. If you cast her in anything, you
45:58
cast her to be Aubrey Plaza. Yeah.
46:01
She says all the things that anybody that works retail wants
46:04
to say to the customers, and she's able to do so.
46:06
Yeah, So it's nice. She gets back to her apartment
46:11
and the Super is downstairs and he's kind of leering at her and
46:14
that's gross and uncomfortable. I thought he was a maintenance
46:16
guy. He's a creepy maintenance suit.
46:18
Yeah, I think they're called supers.
46:20
Oh really? I thought supers was like the
46:21
Wayne Ward term. Sometimes I don't.
46:27
Know he's a super maintenance guy he's super creepy yeah
46:30
that's what he. Is there we go so Andy still
46:33
hasn't unpacked. He was supposed to and he was
46:36
like, sorry, I got distracted. He's been watching buddy videos
46:40
on his phone and she's like, I'm gonna take your phone until you
46:45
unpack stuff like you need to stop spending so much time
46:48
online. And she goes, have you made any
46:50
friends yet? And he's like, no, she goes,
46:51
look, there's two kids standing outside in the rain.
46:53
That's. Too attractive.
46:56
I also like the dialogue here where she's like, come on man,
46:58
it's supposed to be a new start. I was like, oh, I get it, we're
47:01
doing a reboot here, a new start.
47:03
And she was like, I'll give you your phone back if you go try.
47:07
I can't, I can't believe. I mean, I know this is how some
47:10
things are, but like, be like, hey, I'm just gonna push my kid
47:13
and force him to stand out around kids that they don't know
47:16
next to a trash can in the rain. Yeah.
47:18
Well. She didn't actually go out
47:20
there, so it's, you know, but. The fact that she's like, go do
47:24
that, yeah, that's not good. We got back to work and a woman
47:28
is returning a defective buddy. She's like, yeah, his eyes
47:31
glowed red and he said some really weird shit and he just
47:34
doesn't work. And so Karen goes to Wes, her
47:36
supervisor, and she goes, hey, So what happens to these that
47:39
don't work? He was like, Oh yeah, we sent it
47:40
back to the to the Caslon Corporation.
47:43
She's like, yeah, but what do they do?
47:44
And he goes, I probably put them in a trash compactor since the
47:47
buddy, too is coming out. She goes, so then there's no
47:49
problem if I take this home. And he was like, we can't do
47:52
that. And she goes, come on, It's like
47:53
his birthday in a couple weeks. And he's like, no, we can't.
47:56
She goes please, I won't tell anyone, just like I won't tell
47:58
anybody that I caught you having sex with somebody else in the
48:01
break room in. The warehouse, by the way, how's
48:03
your wife doing? Yeah.
48:04
Yeah, she goes. All right.
48:05
So I'm taking a thanks. Bye.
48:08
Very April, she takes the home. No, April.
48:10
Like it would have been like, you can give this to me or I can
48:12
murder you. That's true.
48:13
That's actually more April right there.
48:15
Yeah. And Chucky would be like whoa.
48:17
I hear like give toy or murder. Yeah, interesting.
48:22
Oh man, I would have loved to have seen him shape his
48:23
personality based off. Of April, yeah.
48:27
That would have been great. OK, so she takes it home to Andy
48:31
and he walks in on her making that with Shane.
48:35
Yeah. And you can see he is clearly
48:38
uncomfortable, does not like the idea of Shane being around.
48:41
Yeah, so he just like, I'm just gonna go hang out with some
48:44
kids. And by hanging out with some
48:45
kids, he's gonna go sit down at the end of the hall on his
48:48
phone. Detective Mike is there, and he
48:51
has seen Andy here several times.
48:52
He is, you know, he pays attention that way.
48:55
He comes to eat dinner with his mom once a week.
48:57
And he tries to make some, like, light hearted jokes when Karen
49:01
comes up. And she's like, what's going on?
49:04
What's happening? And Detective Mike tries to set
49:07
himself up for a fun police punchline, but Karen's not
49:10
taking the bait. Yeah, and.
49:13
I love the most. He's like, I was just gonna say
49:15
I'm the fun police. He was like he.
49:17
Was like he was like this is these are finally the people
49:20
that I get to use this on I. Like that, we both looked at
49:23
Talia when he said that because we called Talia the fun police.
49:26
Yeah, she won't let the cats play with anything.
49:28
She thinks they're being too rowdy.
49:31
So she brings Andy back in and she's like, OK, Andy, I know
49:34
that you probably are mad at me right now and you're not happy
49:37
with the whole situation. So I figured you can open this
49:40
birthday present a little bit early, just because you know.
49:44
And he was like, oh, he's like, this is for kids.
49:46
She goes, but you watch the videos, he goes, yeah.
49:49
And she goes, I thought it would be funny.
49:52
And he's like, no, no, it is. And he's like, let's, let's try
49:55
and connect it. Let's see how it works.
49:57
Yep, so. It doesn't, yeah, but that she,
50:01
he's gonna try. He's gonna try and make it like
50:02
it won't connect to the cloud, but like it'll still talk and do
50:05
something. So.
50:06
Yeah, I like, it's Scansome. And he's like, hey, what's your
50:08
name? Or like what?
50:10
What's my name? He's like Han.
50:11
So he's like, OK. Did you say cha cha cha key?
50:15
Yeah, and then he sings in the buddy song.
50:18
The buddy song is so sweet. I started singing it to tell
50:21
you, except instead of buddy I was saying puppy.
50:22
Yeah, you can just like fit it with anything.
50:25
Yeah, so he continues to sing the song to Andy as Andy's
50:30
trying to sleep, and he just won't let Andy sleep.
50:33
Well there's like 1.2 where he's like showing him around the
50:35
apartment and he shows him his cat Rooney, Mickey Rooney.
50:39
And Rooney, like, hisses at him and he calls the cat a Dick and
50:43
Buddy is like, Rooney is a Dick. And he goes, whoa, I didn't
50:47
think you could say that. I like that this is a way to
50:51
make Chucky foul mouth in like an organic way.
50:54
Yes, and again, I think that they actually wrote this really
50:57
well for the age of what these kids were supposed to be.
50:59
Yeah, absolutely. The type of shit they would do.
51:01
Yeah, for sure. Like these.
51:02
It's finally like realistically written children in horror.
51:06
Movies, I'm just I'm happy that we still get Chucky.
51:08
Just like when curse words fly. Yeah, well, that's
51:12
quintessential to his character at this point.
51:14
So we get a little kind of mini montage of kind of their version
51:20
of that commercial we saw at the beginning.
51:22
So he's watching Andy brush his teeth and he's doing the same
51:25
thing, except it kind of looks like he's doing a like Dick
51:27
sucking. Motion.
51:29
And I feel like that has to be intentional.
51:32
He watches Andy, like, make a sandwich and stab it really
51:35
aggressively with the knife. So he's practicing the stabbing.
51:38
And then he goes, Andy, don't forget your science book.
51:42
He goes for the last time. This is not a science book.
51:46
And we see, like a pile of things around him on the floor.
51:49
And he's just like vacant smile like.
51:52
I love that. I would be so happy if that was
51:54
what my dog did. And when he gets home from from
51:59
school, that's where he's like, I made you a present.
52:01
Like a stick with the bow on it. Yeah, they put a bow on it.
52:05
I hate that. Andy's, like, great.
52:06
You gave me a stick. No, Andy, you appreciate that He
52:09
fucking tried. Andy, have you ever heard of a
52:12
little saying it's the thought that counts?
52:14
Yeah, man, Andy. They make Andy a heartless
52:17
little kid in this movie. Man makes Chucky so goddamn
52:22
sympathetic. Yeah, and he's talking at a
52:25
perfectly reasonable volume, but Shane is like SH.
52:29
Oh yeah, cuz like Karen's sleeping.
52:31
Yeah. Come on, man.
52:33
Yeah. So he he leaves with Chucky and
52:37
he's like outside and he's venting about Shane and how much
52:40
he hates him. And cause him a Dick.
52:42
Yeah, like Shane's a fucking Dick so.
52:46
They're playing a board game when Rooney comes up and
52:49
scratches Andy and Andy has to go get a Band-Aid.
52:52
And when he comes back, Chucky is trying to choke Rooney.
52:56
And he's like, no, no, you can't kill cats or people or cats.
53:00
He's like, he's like, but he hurt you.
53:03
And he goes, yeah, it's but you can't like, you can't react that
53:06
way. Like it's overkill, man.
53:10
Like. Man I hate that he has these
53:11
killer tendencies because he was so adorable before.
53:16
So he was like, here's something we kick cuz so Rooney goes
53:23
running off and Shane pops in. Just be like Cat's being weird
53:27
like. Qui in this room.
53:30
Who are you, Shane? Like.
53:35
Cats being weird like in this room.
53:40
And so this is right. And he gets an idea that he's
53:42
going to scare Shane with Chucky.
53:44
So he goes outside. He's trying to get him to make a
53:47
scary face. And it kind of looks like in
53:49
Super Mario 64. When you take the ham screen,
53:52
yeah, he can. Stretch his face.
53:54
That's kind of what he's doing. And this is when Fallon and Pug
53:57
come up with their dog, and they're startled and they hear
54:00
him swear and they're like, whoa, he can.
54:02
Do that. Oh yeah.
54:03
It's like there's like a sound and like somebody says fucking
54:05
loud. And then Chucky just goes, it's
54:07
fucking loud. And they think it's really
54:10
funny, and they decide that they're going to help with the
54:12
the prank. And the prank is in fact,
54:14
effective. Yep.
54:16
So now he's got friends. Yeah, we get a montage of him
54:20
just like, you know, bonding with these kids.
54:22
They're all just having a good time with Chucky.
54:24
Yeah, they think Chucky's funny. He's got like a special Chucky
54:27
cuz it's like the safety protocols are overwritten so we
54:29
can swear. It's an independent thing.
54:31
Yeah, yeah. Do whatever it wants.
54:33
So this is where we see them all over at.
54:36
I'm thinking Pug's. House.
54:37
Yeah. Where?
54:38
They're watching Texas Chainsaw Massacre, too.
54:39
Yeah. And Chuck, he keeps saying that
54:41
he wants to play and and he's like, not right now we're
54:44
watching the movie. And so he watches the movie and
54:46
he's trying to learn. And there's like one point where
54:50
they're kind of like laughing. They're like, this is so
54:52
unrealistic. And so he goes to get a knife,
54:55
and he's going to, like, pretend that he's a killer too, because
54:57
he thinks that's what they like. Yeah.
55:00
And this is the fucking problem with AI people.
55:04
He's too committed to the bit because everybody's like.
55:07
Understand context. Everybody's like, whoa, OK,
55:10
that's creepy and funny and but then he like keeps inching
55:14
closer to pug and then. And he stops him and he gets cut
55:19
and Chucky immediately is like, oh, that's not what I wanted to
55:22
do. Man, this is where I feel really
55:24
bad for him because this is where he like puts Chucky away
55:27
and he's like, I'm gonna go play with Pugs and Fallon Fallon.
55:31
And then he's just like, I didn't want.
55:34
I just, I wasn't trying to hurt you, Andy.
55:37
He's just so sad in the dark with the sad face.
55:39
I'm just. A dumb little.
55:41
Dog, the fact that they give him emotions.
55:45
So we cut to Karen. She made cookies.
55:48
She almost never baked, but she's really excited.
55:50
This is straight out of fucking Christmas inheritance.
55:53
Yeah. And she's trying to get him to
55:55
eat when he goes. No thanks.
55:56
I will get another beer though. Cookies look good though.
55:59
Yeah, they look good. So eat her fucking cookie, man.
56:02
Especially if you're between beers, like that's the perfect
56:05
time to take a little mini snack break.
56:07
So he goes into the kitchen and he sees Chucky and Chucky plays
56:11
a recording of Andy calling Shane an asshole.
56:14
And this is where Karen, like, she's like, OK, this is not
56:18
cool. And she tells Andy she's like,
56:19
listen, you need a break from the doll.
56:21
We're going to do one hour a day.
56:22
And when he's not with you, he's going to be locked up in this
56:25
cabinet. He's freaking.
56:27
He's being rude to Shane and he's freaking out.
56:29
Rooney. Cat's being weird.
56:32
Cat's being weird. Clean up your room.
56:37
So Andy, like, he comes back from school the next day and he
56:41
sees where Chucky has broken out of his little Yeah.
56:46
Area. Yeah, and he just sees shattered
56:48
glass and he sees a puddle of blood and a dead Rooney.
56:55
Man, fucking fucking Chucky. And Andy's just cry God.
57:00
I can't believe he he again, he has to be the adult for like
57:04
Karen, because Karen comes back later and she's like, where's
57:06
the cat? He's like, I don't know, Shane
57:08
left the door open like I ran out.
57:10
Like he doesn't have the heart to tell her he.
57:12
Had to do his own little cat funeral and it's just.
57:15
Take it to like the trash shoot, yeah, it's really fucked up.
57:19
Karen is arguing on the phone. She's like, I can't work the
57:21
buddy too large. That's my kids birthday.
57:24
So that's just, you know, something to bear in mind that
57:27
that's coming up. We see Chucky playing the murder
57:32
tape all night. As he's trying to sleep, Andy.
57:35
God, why is he? He's doing that to fuck with
57:38
him, right? Yeah.
57:38
Why doesn't he take out his hearing aid?
57:41
He could do that. You're right, He could
57:43
definitely do that. Like I'd say that's one of the
57:46
upsides of like if you have to work with the mobility or like
57:51
an ability aid like that throughout your life, like at
57:54
least like if somebody's making sounds you don't want to hear
57:56
like poop. Yeah, I just, I don't have to
57:58
listen to this shit. Yeah, I mean, and I'm saying
58:01
that having known people with hearing aids who?
58:03
I'm sure they can do that, yeah, if you have that ability.
58:06
Want to do this? If I could do that, I would do
58:08
that too. That'd be great.
58:11
So all right, we cut next to Shane back over there.
58:15
Chucky scares him again, makes Shane pee all over himself.
58:19
Dude what the fuck did Shane? Because Shane is at the toilet
58:22
right? Dick in hand, peeing, sees
58:26
Chucky get started. Like does he just let that thing
58:29
fly? Like I think.
58:29
Fire hose, What is happening? I think he panicked and his
58:33
brain short wired and I thought he was like, oh, flip it to
58:35
12:00. But like he he's like, oh, wait,
58:38
I don't have a boner, right? No, no.
58:41
So you end up peeing on some. My follow up question before I
58:44
could get to. It what was your follow up
58:46
question? What circumstances do you panic
58:49
and say flip it to 12:00 when talking about your penis?
58:52
Erection. Flip it to 12 baby.
58:56
Hope you have a long shirt on that day.
59:02
So yeah, this is like the final straw for Shane.
59:05
He like, confronts Andy. He's like, what the fuck did I
59:09
do to you, Andy? Yeah, he like pushes him, closes
59:12
the bedroom door. This red flag.
59:14
All God, yeah. Marinara flags.
59:16
Well, you can tell he's probably done this.
59:18
Before and like, Chucky's in the corner watching all of this.
59:23
And when Shane Lee is like, and he just cries like, I wish he
59:25
was gonna hate him. Karen is out in the hall.
59:28
She's like, dude, he is my child, not yours.
59:30
If you have a problem, you need to talk to me and I will talk to
59:32
him. This is not OK.
59:33
And he's like, I don't have time for this, Karen.
59:36
Yeah, he's like, I don't see what the big deal is.
59:38
He did something that stepped up, you know.
59:41
Yeah, I think it's totally like rational to push a person
59:45
smaller than you with very limited, like, autonomy over
59:49
their own lives. Like it's perfectly reasonable
59:52
to physically abuse them when they're stepping out of line.
59:54
That's how they learn. It's like, come on, Karen, I'm
59:56
out of 12 right now. We could go do that right there,
59:58
or I can flip it back down to six and I can walk home.
1:00:01
What time is it, Karen? She was wisely.
1:00:05
So he goes out to his truck and he pulls up to this house and
1:00:09
this is where I was like you, God damn.
1:00:11
Bastard cuz he can see from right there there's a family
1:00:14
inside and it's his. Family.
1:00:16
The way he flips down his visor and catches his ring all in like
1:00:20
1 swift move like he's practiced.
1:00:23
It would have been better if he did that and he like put his
1:00:25
hand out and then like landed right on his finger.
1:00:29
I'm very the way you play around with your wedding ring.
1:00:31
I'm very concerned you're going to try and master this move.
1:00:33
Hey man, still haven't lost it. You come.
1:00:37
There have been close calls. There have been close calls but
1:00:39
I'm I'm very protective over it. So he goes in, says hi to his
1:00:45
wife and kids, and then he goes outside cuz he's got to take
1:00:47
down the Christmas lights and he's like take down the fucking
1:00:50
Christmas. Like why don't we just leave
1:00:51
them up? They're just lights.
1:00:53
Just talking about practice. Just.
1:00:54
Talking about practice. So as he's doing that I don't
1:00:59
fully understand what happened here cuz he's like trying to
1:01:01
scooch the ladder over and the ladder just disappears.
1:01:04
No, Chucky's shaking the ladder. Okay.
1:01:06
Yeah, he's over there grabbing the lights, but yeah, he's
1:01:09
rattling it down there. And then he.
1:01:11
Falls. He takes it out from under him,
1:01:13
Falls, and then yeah, the he's like, you think he's going to
1:01:18
get hanged by the lights, but what happens is he lands on the
1:01:22
ground with both legs, which causes his legs to break, bones
1:01:26
sticking out. This scene edges you the way a
1:01:28
lot of death scenes in Final Destination do.
1:01:31
Yeah, it does. Yeah.
1:01:31
It's like, here's what? You think it's going to happen.
1:01:33
Nope. Nope, and they couldn't have
1:01:34
picked a better character to do this with.
1:01:36
Oh yeah, he gets probably the most brutal death, but yeah, the
1:01:39
most deserved of them. All so he's broken both his legs
1:01:43
and he's trying to crawl towards his cell phone which like fell
1:01:45
into his watermelon that for some reason he and his family
1:01:48
have. And as he's crawling towards it,
1:01:52
they're like roto tiller starts and it starts coming towards him
1:01:58
and he's like trying to push it off.
1:01:59
And then Chucky comes up with a knife and then he lets go of the
1:02:04
tiller. The tiller gets him, but Chucky
1:02:05
also stabs him a bunch. But before that, right before he
1:02:09
says him, he says this is for Tupac and kills him.
1:02:13
That's going to be a confusing death.
1:02:15
Yeah, the fucking doll, Tupac, he's been dead.
1:02:20
Like, what did I do to him? OK, so next day cops are there
1:02:26
checking out the crime. Scene and Detective Mike is the
1:02:28
detective on the case and. What do you know?
1:02:30
He he saw the confrontation out in the hallway between Karen and
1:02:34
Shane. And then he sees the ID that he
1:02:37
had on him and he's like, yeah, that's full of Shane.
1:02:41
So Andy wakes up and he sees a watermelon in his room with
1:02:44
Shane's face mailed to it. And this is both funny because
1:02:51
it's a call back to them watching Texas Chainsaw Massacre
1:02:54
2 and saying that's really unrealistic when Leatherface had
1:02:56
faced somebody. Yeah, but also it's absurd
1:03:01
because his fucking eyeballs are there.
1:03:03
I never noticed that until you mentioned that last night.
1:03:06
I was like, yeah, you know what? Why is I didn't?
1:03:09
Notice it until Pug said he's winking at me and I was like why
1:03:12
is he winking? Yeah.
1:03:14
That's a great question. Yeah, yeah.
1:03:17
And you're right. It's great commentary and like,
1:03:19
it's just like it's so unrealistic and we know it.
1:03:22
So Andy and list the help of his new BFFS Fallon and Pug, and Pug
1:03:27
is correctly distraught and Fallon correctly says This is
1:03:31
why AI shouldn't be allowed to be smart and sentient.
1:03:35
Yeah, that's a good point. It's true.
1:03:39
So they decide that they're going to wrap it as a way to
1:03:45
take it to the shoot. This backfires because Karen
1:03:49
walks in. She goes, why aren't you guys in
1:03:50
school? And Andy says explosive
1:03:52
diarrhea, which was the the lie that they had agreed upon if
1:03:56
anybody tried to stop them. And she goes, good excuse.
1:03:59
And she goes, what's the present for it?
1:04:02
And he goes, it's for Doreen down the hall because she helps
1:04:06
me with my homework. She goes, well, that's sweet,
1:04:07
let's go give it to her. Come on, let's go.
1:04:12
So they go down the hall and knock on the door and she's
1:04:15
like, well, Andy made this present for you and wanted you
1:04:18
to have it because of all the homework that you've helped him
1:04:22
with. And while this is happening,
1:04:23
she's making eye contact with Andy.
1:04:25
He's with his eye saying please just go along with this.
1:04:28
And she's like, well, thank you, that's very sweet.
1:04:31
Let me open it. He goes, no, no, my birthday is
1:04:34
next Friday. Let's open them together then.
1:04:36
And she's like, OK. And whatever your kid, kids do
1:04:40
weird shit. Yeah, so Andy is crying and he
1:04:46
has to trick Chucky by taking him to Pugs out Pugs apartment
1:04:51
again, I guess. I think so, yeah.
1:04:53
And Pug and Fallon tackle him so that way he can power him off.
1:04:58
And I get it because we talked about how this little doll feels
1:05:02
things and makes you feel things, and Andy has formed an
1:05:06
actual friendship with it. The worst part?
1:05:09
OK, so First off, they do this by just like Iron manning him.
1:05:13
They they take his little like blue glowy thing from his chest
1:05:16
out, which is apparently his power supply.
1:05:18
Yeah, but he makes it worse by singing the buddy song as they
1:05:23
have him pinned down and they're stabbing him and shit.
1:05:27
Oh my God, they really tug at the heartstrings with this right
1:05:29
here. So they drop him in the chute
1:05:32
and the Super finds him and starts a refurb process and he's
1:05:36
planning to resell but first he's going to sniff them
1:05:39
clothes. Why does he do that?
1:05:43
I don't know, it is weird. Does he like the smell of trash?
1:05:47
He's like, what does this toy smell like?
1:05:49
I don't know, it's so weird. It is weird.
1:05:53
Andy sees Karen and Mike talking about Shane.
1:05:56
Like he walks in during the interview and Karen's crying and
1:05:59
she's like, God, this is all awful and also I feel stupid.
1:06:02
And yeah, then Andy, Mike and Doreen are having dinner
1:06:07
together. Yeah, so.
1:06:09
That's kind of sweet, and Doreen's trying to figure out
1:06:11
how to call like Uber, but it's the Castling car and they're
1:06:16
driverless and that's terrifying.
1:06:18
Yeah, I know I wouldn't. Dude.
1:06:19
I've seen videos of people renting cars like this in San
1:06:23
Francisco. You know what happens?
1:06:25
This is why we can't have nice things.
1:06:27
People go out, block the car because I know it won't run them
1:06:31
over and then they just like graffiti all over and smash it
1:06:34
up. I saw a really sad one that made
1:06:36
me feel bad. This is guy, he's just got his
1:06:38
little dog in the car with them and they're just trying to get
1:06:40
somewhere. These people just get in the
1:06:42
road and they just block and start harassing him and like the
1:06:44
car and just it's a it's a little bit fucked up.
1:06:48
Made me feel bad. But that's why we, I mean,
1:06:51
they're trying to make these things happen, but people are
1:06:53
too like, society is too much of an asshole.
1:06:55
Well, it's like there is this like independent robot that was
1:06:58
supposed to be traveling cross country and it didn't make it
1:07:00
any farther than the East Coast before people just destroyed it.
1:07:05
If any of you live in Philadelphia, I'm sorry, but I'm
1:07:08
pretty sure it's the Philadelphians that fucked them.
1:07:11
Up. No, just in general, If you live
1:07:12
in Philadelphia, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I am a Braves fan and
1:07:17
I hate the Phillies so, but it's nothing personal.
1:07:19
I just hate you. You're all fucking sports
1:07:20
scenes. So yeah.
1:07:24
So where are we at? Oh, OK.
1:07:27
Yeah. So he's explaining how to use
1:07:28
that. And she was like, cool, So this
1:07:29
is how I can get the bingo. And, you know, they're gently
1:07:32
teasing Mike, and it's kind of sweet saying that they've, like,
1:07:36
developed a little relationship between the three of them.
1:07:39
And. Yeah.
1:07:40
Yeah, Mike has like a heart to heart with Andy, and he's doing
1:07:44
this while he's putting his hand on the present.
1:07:47
And he's like, look, I know all the kids say all these things
1:07:50
about me out there, but watch what they say, the bad
1:07:53
influences out there. Yeah, and.
1:07:55
Then he goes up to go. He's clearing.
1:07:57
The table and Andy grabs the present and runs and when Mike
1:08:01
turns around he's like kid can't even hear me and he still
1:08:04
doesn't want to listen so he tosses out the watermelon face.
1:08:11
The Super gets Chucky running and he manages to connect to the
1:08:15
cloud to test it out and then also perv on Karen because I
1:08:19
guess for some reason there are cameras in the bathroom and I
1:08:23
feel like that's something he did.
1:08:24
Before he definitely did that. Yeah, yeah.
1:08:26
And yeah, we see her. She's getting in the shower but
1:08:28
like the feet cuts out before she undresses and so it starts
1:08:31
to panic. And Chuck, he's like, let's open
1:08:35
you up and see what's in what we're working with.
1:08:38
I like this. Yeah.
1:08:39
So this whole thing, like, he's like, slashing at his feet, like
1:08:42
running around, slashing at his feet.
1:08:43
Eventually the Super jumps up on like this little table with a
1:08:47
saw in it. Yeah, Oh yeah, With a.
1:08:49
And the table kind of gets broken on a couple of legs, so
1:08:53
it's leaning, and he grabs up on a pipe overhead.
1:08:56
And then the cloud connects, turns on the saw, and then also
1:09:00
UPS the temperature so the pipe becomes too hot to cold.
1:09:03
So what eventually happens, obviously, is that Jack Gray
1:09:06
falls down onto the table and dies.
1:09:08
Yeah, it was a good death. This guy had it coming.
1:09:11
Yeah, fucking creep. Yeah, him and Shane.
1:09:14
It was good that those were the two, like drawn out ones,
1:09:16
because we're gonna get a sad one here shortly.
1:09:20
Yeah. So one of the kids comes up and
1:09:23
knocks on 80s door and says, oh, guess what was left outside of
1:09:26
Omar's door? And it was a Chucky doll.
1:09:30
And you know, Andy's kind of like, that's a little bit weird
1:09:34
because it's also another one that was like swearing and
1:09:37
stuff. But Andy doesn't immediately go
1:09:39
to that's my doll. Like he's just like, it's just a
1:09:41
little bit weird, but I'm going to pay attention.
1:09:44
Then this whole group of kids goes to the Zed Mart and Chucky
1:09:47
kind of was like, you're my buddy.
1:09:50
Yeah. Oh man, you're my.
1:09:52
Best friend and then he starts playing footage of Shane's
1:09:58
death. Also the footage of Shane
1:10:01
pushing Andy on the bed and being.
1:10:03
And Andy saying, I wish he would just go away.
1:10:05
Yeah. And then Omar comes up and he
1:10:08
goes, listen, just because your shit's busted doesn't mean that
1:10:10
you can try and take mine. He's like, no, you don't
1:10:12
understand. This doll is evil.
1:10:13
And he goes, oh, can't you hear what I'm saying?
1:10:16
Oh right, you can't. Rude and terrible but also
1:10:20
completely realistic for like an 11 year old to say.
1:10:23
Yeah, and not only that, he slaps the hearing aid off of his
1:10:26
ears. Yeah.
1:10:27
And so, Andy, you know what? I support this punch.
1:10:29
I support this. Yeah, stand up for yourself,
1:10:31
man. He fights Omar and they get into
1:10:33
a fight. I feel bad for Pug here, though,
1:10:36
because Pug comes always like break it up and he's like, no,
1:10:39
he pushes him, he hits his head. Poor Pug he was.
1:10:41
Just like I thought this kid was my friend.
1:10:44
Yeah, ruined my entire career. And then this gets the attention
1:10:48
of the whole store, including Karen, and Karen, just like gets
1:10:51
him out of there. Yeah, and in the in the tussle,
1:10:56
Omar dropped his phone and so Andy takes it with him.
1:11:00
And what this ends up being important for is because he can
1:11:04
connect to the buddy app and he sees through Chucky's vision
1:11:09
that he's watching Doreen climb into a castling car that she
1:11:11
called to take her to. Bingo.
1:11:13
And he panics. He knows something bad is going
1:11:15
to happen and he tries to tell Karen.
1:11:17
And Karen is like sobbing because she cannot afford the
1:11:20
type of intensive therapy that she currently thinks her son
1:11:23
needs. Her wife fucking sucks, right?
1:11:25
Now she's like I already can't afford his new hearing aid and
1:11:28
now he needs probably inpatient therapy.
1:11:31
Also her boyfriend was a Dick to her kid and also.
1:11:34
And had a wife and children. She was the side piece.
1:11:37
Yeah, boy, bad stuff. Yeah.
1:11:41
And then when he's like trying to show her the proof that like
1:11:43
Chucky's following Doreen, he goes, she was like, where did
1:11:46
you get this phone? He goes, it's Omar.
1:11:47
As he drops it, she goes, no, we're, we are taking this bag.
1:11:51
Are you serious? So she goes to take it back to
1:11:54
Omar's house. His apartment makes Andy stay
1:11:57
inside. And while he's inside, the TV
1:11:59
comes on and it's showing like, just various footage of things
1:12:02
that have happened, up to and including Dorian being killed.
1:12:07
Yeah, yeah, he she made it to the parking lot of the bingo
1:12:09
place and then the car. She's about to get out.
1:12:12
The car locks, unbuckles her, turns off off the airbags, is
1:12:16
driving around the parking lot crazy, and we see Chucky in the
1:12:19
parking lot with his little ET light up finger like making it
1:12:23
move around, you know? What they should have done, they
1:12:25
should have had him do one thing where he's like doing the force.
1:12:27
My God, it would have been perfect for this.
1:12:32
But no, he just kills her. Yeah.
1:12:35
Yeah, she like, they crash and she gets out of the car and then
1:12:38
he comes up and stabs. Her and then the fucked up part.
1:12:41
Detective Mike is the one to identify the body and.
1:12:45
We were talking about this. So we're like, what the fuck?
1:12:47
We know he's got a partner. Yeah.
1:12:50
Why is he the one that was, like, comes out to the scene and
1:12:53
is like lifting? It's not even like an official
1:12:54
identification moment. Would you, would you not even
1:12:57
have, I don't know the procedure.
1:12:59
So anybody aware of police correct me about the coroner?
1:13:02
Would they not be like, hey, this is the person, oh, here's
1:13:04
her ID? Yeah, I think the coroner has to
1:13:06
officially pronounce death. Yeah.
1:13:10
And then I think they have to have somebody come ID.
1:13:12
It's not just going to be him come out in the parking lot on
1:13:14
his job, you know what I mean? Like.
1:13:17
The coroner. No, Mike.
1:13:19
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I it's feel bad for him.
1:13:23
That's a bad way to find out your mom that.
1:13:25
Yeah. So yeah, now we go back to Andy.
1:13:29
Chucky is now streaming his vision to Andy's TV.
1:13:33
Yeah, and Andy is freaking out and he starts beating up the TV
1:13:37
with a baseball bat and Karen comes in and she's she is
1:13:40
broken. She's at her.
1:13:41
Yeah. She's.
1:13:42
Like I don't know what to do. Cool you have that bat, go ahead
1:13:45
and like use it on me now cuz I'm done.
1:13:48
Right here, kid. Yeah.
1:13:50
So he is at work with her the next day because clearly he
1:13:54
can't be alone and also it's his birthday and she can't not work
1:14:00
now because she needs all of the types of doctors for him.
1:14:03
Not only that, it's also the release day of the Buddy, too.
1:14:06
Yeah, which is a big day. They got the people crowding
1:14:09
outside the front of the store there and yeah, it's a big
1:14:13
event. And while this is going on,
1:14:16
Fallon takes a look at Omar's phone and sees some of this
1:14:20
footage and she tells Bug she goes, I think maybe, maybe this
1:14:25
isn't all Andy like, I think we have reason to be suspicious of
1:14:29
of the machines. Yeah, also while this is
1:14:32
happening, one of the I guess the other person there had she
1:14:35
was called away on a head or face that they found in the
1:14:39
trash chute. And she takes the pictures to
1:14:42
Mike. And then he sees, oh, that's
1:14:44
Shane's face with the wrapping that Andy had, that the present
1:14:48
he had for his mom. She's like, oh, that fucking
1:14:51
kid. Yep.
1:14:53
So they they go to Zed Mart, they're going to try and save
1:14:58
Andy and Mike has, but he like as they're trying to like get
1:15:04
him out, he's like, no, I need to find my mom.
1:15:06
Like he's like, I feel like she's probably in danger because
1:15:09
Chucky wants to kill everybody that's close to me.
1:15:12
And as they're about to do that, Mike comes up, cuffs Andy and
1:15:19
Karen's like, wait, what's happening?
1:15:21
Wes? And the rest is Ed Mark give no
1:15:23
fucks. So they go through with the
1:15:25
launch. Wes is in the mascot uniform,
1:15:28
but he comes up, stabs him in the uniform.
1:15:30
So as he comes out during the launch, he lifts off the head
1:15:34
and this little girl just gets oh.
1:15:37
Man, I forgot it happened to a little kid.
1:15:41
Perhaps to that little actress cuz she like screamed her heart
1:15:45
out, had a whole horror on her face and she's just getting
1:15:48
gushed and. Fake blood trauma for the rest
1:15:52
of your life, right? Yeah, that's fucked up.
1:15:54
Talk about parents needing to pay for psychotherapy for the
1:15:57
kids. Yeah.
1:16:00
So yeah, Chucky has now started just taking over all of the
1:16:06
castling products in the store. So he's got drones, he's got all
1:16:11
kinds of other he. Turns off the light, he connects
1:16:13
to everybody's cell phone, gets them connected to the cloud.
1:16:16
Has the drone, like flying. It's flying towards Care,
1:16:20
towards Mike, but Karen knocks him out of the way, saves him
1:16:23
just in time. Locks.
1:16:26
Yeah. It's the dude, the warehouse
1:16:28
manager guy that just got his juggy word cut.
1:16:32
It hits him in the face and just finishes him off.
1:16:35
Yeah, lockdown is activated and Chucky in aid.
1:16:47
Hearing aid. He's talking to him as hearing
1:16:50
aid. I was thinking first aid and I
1:16:55
was like, I don't think he's doing first aid.
1:16:56
He's like, he's like, oh, what am I done?
1:16:58
Yeah, he's in Andy's hearing aid.
1:17:00
And he was like, it's just going to be you and me.
1:17:03
Anybody who gets in the way is being eliminated, being for
1:17:06
eliminated. For eliminated.
1:17:11
The drone is coming towards Pug and Mike saves him, but the
1:17:15
drone actually hits him this time.
1:17:17
Buddy activates all of the other buddies and Fallon just comes
1:17:23
through. Fallon's like a little mini
1:17:24
badass, like she's gotten gardening supplies, like, you
1:17:28
know, like hedge trimmer, stuff like that.
1:17:30
And she's like knocking dolls left and right, drones left and
1:17:33
right. She frees Andy from his
1:17:35
handcuffs and they decide that they're going to go through like
1:17:38
the warehouse, like exit and that's how they're going to get
1:17:40
out. And he's like, no, I and they
1:17:42
see up on the screen, Karen has been found by buddy by Chucky is
1:17:46
tied up and he's like, I need to go save her.
1:17:48
And they're like, you can't save her.
1:17:50
Let's get out of here, call the cops, get like adults.
1:17:52
And he was like, you're right, you're right, you're right.
1:17:54
And they go out. And then he closes the door.
1:17:56
He's like, I can't leave my mom. This is all my fault.
1:17:59
You guys go. Except you didn't really do
1:18:01
anything wrong, Andy. No, you like, yeah, you just had
1:18:04
bad AI. Yeah.
1:18:06
So yeah, he goes over there to confront his mom.
1:18:08
Ends up being a trap. Yeah.
1:18:10
Well, obviously. Yeah.
1:18:12
And she is like tied up to a forklift and the forklift starts
1:18:16
raising. And so he wants to try and help
1:18:19
his mom. He sings the buddy song.
1:18:25
To stop. Chucky from cutting him.
1:18:27
Yeah, oh man, I like how he just like takes Chucky back.
1:18:30
He's like. Yeah.
1:18:32
And Andy uses that moment to climb up to the top of, like, a
1:18:35
rack, and he starts cutting Karen down, but Chucky follows
1:18:38
him and attacks him. So Andy jumps onto the rope,
1:18:41
finishes cutting everybody falls down all together, and he stabs
1:18:47
Chucky. Mike, he's still alive.
1:18:50
He comes in, he shoots Chucky, and then Karen comes over and
1:18:54
kicks Chucky's head off. Yeah, just like finishes it.
1:18:57
Off. Yeah, yeah.
1:18:59
And then when Mike shots shoots him, he says this is the end.
1:19:05
He didn't say friend. Well, that wasn't his friend it.
1:19:07
Would have been cool if he said this is the end fucker.
1:19:10
I would have liked that. That's what I was expecting.
1:19:13
I mean that would have been also a RIP off of Cult of Chucky.
1:19:17
Yeah, this is the end, Tupac. OK, so things are kind of back
1:19:24
to normal. The kids take the remainders of
1:19:28
Chucky and they office space. Them.
1:19:30
Thank you, that's all I could think of watching this.
1:19:32
Yeah, they just like they'd slow MO, Yeah, like put them down on
1:19:35
the ground and they take bats and shit and just bust them up.
1:19:38
And Caslon claims no responsibility for what
1:19:40
happened. However, as a safety measure,
1:19:44
they will be recalling all of their buddy products.
1:19:46
We're sorry. We're sorry, that's it.
1:19:50
That's how the movie ends, yeah. No after credits.
1:19:53
Nope, Checked. We checked.
1:19:55
Yes, we were very thorough this time.
1:19:56
Yeah, they've got us on edge after the last few ones.
1:19:59
Yeah, there's this jam packed with which saw.
1:20:02
Movie was it that we found out after we did our saw coverage
1:20:05
that it had an after I think it. Was 6.
1:20:07
Yeah. It was like, yeah, it was one
1:20:09
that like. Yeah, we never knew.
1:20:11
Yeah. Yeah, I I now check every single
1:20:14
movie we watch because I. Even once we've seen 1000.
1:20:16
Times. Yeah, exactly.
1:20:17
You never know. Right, I'm still keeping it at
1:20:20
an 8. I'm.
1:20:20
Keep in mind, at a nine. Yeah, this is a really, really
1:20:23
good movie. I love it.
1:20:24
OK, what would you change then? I don't know if there's much
1:20:29
that I would change. I still think it's really solid.
1:20:31
I think it's just like it's always going to have that like
1:20:34
air of being a remake, which isn't its fault, but like that's
1:20:39
just always going to be there in the back of my mind.
1:20:41
So I guess it's like 2 points for not being an original idea.
1:20:45
OK, that's fair. Talia was.
1:20:49
She was pretty sleepy. We've discussed this before.
1:20:51
Talia is afraid of Chucky. I don't think this Chucky scares
1:20:57
her as much, but she also doesn't really love sentient
1:21:01
machines. Like she's not a fan of our
1:21:02
Ruba, our Roomba, or the our little like security camera that
1:21:08
we check in on her throughout the day.
1:21:10
She doesn't like that she she also agrees that we shouldn't be
1:21:13
giving machines intelligence. So I think she's on right track.
1:21:16
Yeah. So I think that she's happy this
1:21:19
isn't the serial killer Chucky, and she appreciates the warnings
1:21:23
that are included in this movie. So I think she's going to.
1:21:24
I'll give it a 7. OK, yeah, Talia, not a fan of
1:21:29
that. ChatGPT, not a big fan of that
1:21:32
at all. Just like you were making no
1:21:34
sense right now. OK, All right, so.
1:21:41
It's always ultimate warrior. Definitely Chucky this time,
1:21:45
just in a different way. We can do this Chucky.
1:21:47
This is a new Chucky. It is a new Chucky.
1:21:49
And she, I mean, just like she is just like a broken cat,
1:21:53
broken doll here doesn't know, yeah, doing the things that on
1:21:56
paper are set of being this thing that you are, but just
1:22:00
doesn't don't know how to do it the right way.
1:22:03
And you can't help but like you look at her big dumb eyes when
1:22:05
she stares at you and they're full of love and hunger and
1:22:08
you're just like I. I will protect you.
1:22:10
I I don't know what's happening up there, but I'll take care of
1:22:13
you. That's just, that's totally her
1:22:16
Chucky right there, yeah. OK.
1:22:21
Who's you relate to? I related to Fallon because
1:22:24
anytime like a machine upsets me and like This is why we
1:22:27
shouldn't give them power because eventually they're going
1:22:29
to take over. I frequently relate things back
1:22:31
to Terminator. Whenever we do zoom calls at
1:22:34
work, I get mad at the fucking zoom bitch who lies about us
1:22:40
entering in our meeting code. So yeah, she's like, you entered
1:22:44
and I'm like, I didn't though actually.
1:22:47
You're just being feisty and I'm not here for it.
1:22:50
Yeah. Don't.
1:22:50
Don't be feisty. So.
1:22:52
I related to Karen in that scene, the opening scene,
1:22:55
talking to the customers that just remind me of my customer
1:22:58
service days where those are the things that I wish I could have
1:23:01
said. Like, I'm sorry, you were just
1:23:03
being a fucking idiot, but I mean, you kind of have been an
1:23:07
idiot here, So what can I tell you?
1:23:09
Sorry, you're stupid. Yeah, that's just, that's the
1:23:13
dream right there for any service worker, anybody that
1:23:16
works in customer service or customer relations, just tell
1:23:19
how it is. Yeah, OK.
1:23:22
All right, Let's see what's next.
1:23:25
Tagline. It's a tagline time.
1:23:28
It's tagline time, baby. No dreams.
1:23:30
No, we can't do dream sequels. Yep.
1:23:32
OK, then. Yeah.
1:23:34
Tagline. OK.
1:23:39
OK, you wanted to have this incorporated somewhere in the
1:23:43
movie, so here we go. This one's a force to be
1:23:46
reckoned with. I like that.
1:23:49
That's really good. Yeah.
1:23:50
Yeah. This one's a force to be
1:23:52
reckoned with. Good job.
1:23:54
Are you gonna use the Star Wars font?
1:23:56
Yes, OK, that's a great idea. If I could, I would make it like
1:24:02
a play, like hey, I can edit that shit now.
1:24:08
Actually I'm gonna do that man. OK, cool.
1:24:13
Well, that was easy. Yay.
1:24:15
Thank you. All right, so we are now moving
1:24:17
on to reviews. All right, let's see what you
1:24:20
got. All right, so I pulled us a
1:24:24
negative IMDb review. Yeah.
1:24:27
It is a three out of 10 was reviewed back in April of 2020.
1:24:33
It is titled Unnecessary Remake. Okay.
1:24:38
Child's Play is rubbish and an absolute waste of time.
1:24:41
The original version is not even very good, but was at least
1:24:44
novel for its time and spawned several sequels.
1:24:48
This reboot, a lazy excuse for a film, adds nothing and does not
1:24:52
improve on the original even slightly.
1:24:54
Unlike the remake of Carrie, which was up against a horror
1:24:57
classic, Child's Play actually had scope for improvement
1:25:00
instead. Written by Tyler Burton Smith
1:25:02
from a story by Don Manzini, the writer of the original film,
1:25:06
Smith makes very little effort to stamp his own personality on
1:25:09
proceedings. The script is pedestrian at
1:25:12
best, with many of the story elements making very little
1:25:15
sense. Some of the killings are shoved
1:25:17
in just to make up the numbers. Gabe Doreen.
1:25:21
The Korean opening was nonsistical Korean.
1:25:23
I guess it was Korea taking the safety elements off of a toy as
1:25:28
though it were a nuclear missile.
1:25:31
If the film had gone for parody and might have worked.
1:25:34
Directed by Waris Krevberg, who also directed the far better
1:25:38
Polaroid, walks us through this horror by numbers.
1:25:41
Wow, this guy is full of hot tanks.
1:25:43
Yeah. Have you seen Polaroid?
1:25:46
Yes. Is it bad?
1:25:50
It's the type of movie I'd like. I wouldn't say it's good.
1:25:55
OK. Thank you.
1:25:56
All right. You've watched it with me.
1:26:00
I have those takes about many things myself.
1:26:01
Not a good movie. I like it, it's for me.
1:26:04
All right, so Boris Clever walks us through this horror by
1:26:07
numbers with barely any of the scares working and easily
1:26:10
predictable. The acting is fine given the
1:26:12
material and nobody on show is noticeable noticeably awful, but
1:26:16
I suspect that unless they were big fans of the original, most
1:26:20
of the adults at least only turned up for the paycheck.
1:26:24
Child's Play is a lazy, uninspired, pointless remake of
1:26:27
an OK horror that did not need to be remade.
1:26:29
Definitely one to give him this. My theory on what happened with
1:26:34
this reviewer is that they watched the original Child's
1:26:36
Play at one point in their life. Hated it, never re watched it.
1:26:40
This came out and they decided to watch it.
1:26:43
They remembered very little from the remake or from the original,
1:26:46
but decided that remakes are bad anyway.
1:26:48
Yeah, that's what I think happened.
1:26:50
I think this is from somebody that this type of movie is just
1:26:53
not for them in general, whether it's like Voodoo or AI, like
1:26:57
they're just not going to be happy with this.
1:26:59
And they also hate remakes regardless of what it does.
1:27:02
Curious to see their thoughts on Megan in Threegan.
1:27:05
In Threegan also like Polaroid. Not an original idea either,
1:27:10
it's basically just. I assumed that would be.
1:27:12
Yes, you have and it's basically just a.
1:27:15
Retelling. Of RL Stein say cheese and die.
1:27:18
That's not a great movie. Yeah, that's a weird thing for
1:27:20
him to be like, oh man, Polaroid.
1:27:21
Yeah, like he's like this movie garbage Polaroid top shelf like.
1:27:26
Interesting. That's why I meant like hot
1:27:28
tail, like I'm somebody that will.
1:27:30
I have watched Polaroid recreationally on days that I've
1:27:34
had off that you've worked. That's his right.
1:27:37
Yeah, that's that's totally fine.
1:27:39
If that's your thing. If that's your favorite type of
1:27:41
movie, good for you. But I yeah, I don't.
1:27:43
Necessarily agree. Like I said, and this type of
1:27:45
movie really just it isn't going to be for everyone, but I also
1:27:49
feel like this is somebody that came into it with a negative
1:27:52
slant already. Probably.
1:27:54
Yeah, so, but I mean, yeah, it, it is what it is.
1:27:58
OK, well let's see what the listeners have to say.
1:28:01
What do our listeners have to say?
1:28:02
Travis, I would like to hear here from from our babies.
1:28:07
OK, so over on Instagram, Cubesafe says it's a fun movie,
1:28:11
but it feels like it could have been any generic toy slash doll
1:28:14
movie. Yeah, I was kind of thinking
1:28:16
that last night. I'm like, you know, this is like
1:28:19
the same beats as Megan. Like, you know, the doll, a kid
1:28:23
needs some companionship and then the doll fills that void,
1:28:27
but then it wants to be the only companion.
1:28:30
Yep, that's pretty much it. That's true.
1:28:34
That's very, very true. That would be the one bad thing
1:28:36
I guess I could say about this movie.
1:28:37
But I still feel like it. I feel like it overcame those
1:28:41
shortcomings myself. Side note Megan 2 is coming out
1:28:45
this year. I'm.
1:28:45
Excited. I really want it to be called in
1:28:47
forgan. In Forgan, I want the Chucky
1:28:51
Megan crossover to happen. Meg friend Meg.
1:28:55
Friend Meg, just a lot of E yeah, that's if you get like 33
1:29:00
sequels eventually you'd be like Meg, yeah, OK, no, I get that.
1:29:07
That's a that's a fair criticism there.
1:29:08
Yeah. And I mean, like, I think it did
1:29:11
its own original thing in terms of retelling a story.
1:29:14
But yeah, like the the AI thing is, it's becoming less and less
1:29:18
novel as we go forward. So that's fair enough, I guess
1:29:22
in a 2025 lens of looking at it. Yeah, for sure.
1:29:24
Yeah, all right. The kilt in the redneck says.
1:29:29
I enjoyed it more than Child's Play too, if that says much.
1:29:33
This is a lot but I not a lot at the same time.
1:29:37
I'm curious what? More.
1:29:39
I want more. I don't know if this is the kilt
1:29:41
or the redneck speaking or if you wrote this together, but
1:29:43
please give us more. Information I need the Child's
1:29:46
Play 2 review and I need the review on child's Play 2019 on
1:29:49
my desk first thing in the. Morning.
1:29:51
Yeah. 300 words yes together on both of them.
1:29:55
Essay style please use APA formatting Thank you.
1:29:58
I will run it through a checker to see if you use AI.
1:30:02
We've learned our lessons in this movie.
1:30:04
Here, except the problem is that those checkers are they
1:30:06
themselves AI and they tend to flag a lot of.
1:30:09
False. I've seen that.
1:30:10
I've seen where somebody is like, I wrote a paper and it's
1:30:13
flagging as AI and I don't know what to do.
1:30:15
How does that even happen? People are so paranoid now.
1:30:18
I see comments on Reddit all the time.
1:30:20
Somebody being like, oh, this is totally an AI response.
1:30:23
And the person replies like, no, like I'm a person.
1:30:25
So I think part of the problem, because before it used to like
1:30:28
if you could find a snippet of this thing written online, then
1:30:30
it was like you were taking more, like you were taking
1:30:32
direct quotes, not putting it in your own words.
1:30:34
But the problem is now, like Google, it does AI summaries of
1:30:39
your search results. So if you look up a legitimate
1:30:41
source, you cite it, you've summarized it yourself.
1:30:44
If Google has summarized it in a similar way on like a search
1:30:48
result, it might be flagging that.
1:30:50
That's my theory as to what's happening with it.
1:30:52
Like it's just going to be harder and harder to summarize
1:30:54
things in your own words that haven't been summarized
1:30:56
elsewhere on the Internet by. I think it's also people
1:30:59
noticing speech patterns for AI. Yeah.
1:31:02
And then people like, this sounds very much like AI wrote
1:31:04
this. Like, no, this is just like I I
1:31:06
talk like a robot. Oh no, I was talking
1:31:07
specifically about like school assignments.
1:31:09
Oh, I'm talking about people in like comments like.
1:31:12
I'm talking about practice. I'm talking, how about the game?
1:31:18
OK, All right, let's move on. OK.
1:31:22
And the last one on Instagram, it's from Michael E Howard, who
1:31:25
says the new version of Child's Play that came out shouldn't be
1:31:28
considered part of the actual Child's Play franchise.
1:31:31
In my opinion, I consider this a pretty good movie on its own and
1:31:34
it is a really good take on an old idea.
1:31:37
The movie gets props for Robbery Plaza because she is amazing and
1:31:39
of course the voice of Mark Hamill was great.
1:31:42
I think as a Child's Play movie, I wouldn't give it a high score,
1:31:45
but as a movie on its own, I'd give it an 8 out of 10 and
1:31:49
that's. Pretty much how I feel about.
1:31:50
It great way to look at it right there.
1:31:51
Yeah, that's a perfect way to look at it.
1:31:53
Yeah. I mean, like, I don't, I don't
1:31:55
fit this into the child's play. No, it doesn't fit in the
1:31:59
timeline anywhere, and I don't think it really tries to.
1:32:02
It is part of the franchise, but I just, I see it as its own
1:32:05
thing. It's non Canon to me.
1:32:07
Yeah, it's totally non Canon. Yeah, but yeah, no, I agree.
1:32:11
Aubrey Plaza, Mark Hamill, Like I said again, if you're going to
1:32:13
have anybody do the voice, Mark Hamill, one of the best fucking
1:32:17
voice actors in the game. OK, then the final review over
1:32:22
on Blue Sky or Zombie, A Feud has a totally different movie
1:32:27
outside of the other Child's Play movies.
1:32:29
It's OK. There are a lot of weird plot
1:32:31
points and characters. The idea is by no means new.
1:32:34
Most of the reason to rewatch this movie is Aubrey Plaza.
1:32:38
So if there's one thing everybody can agree on, Aubrey
1:32:40
Plaza. Yeah, a good thing to watch.
1:32:43
Yeah, but if you love Aubrey Plaza, don't be a fucking creep
1:32:46
to her right now. Yeah, people are being weird to
1:32:48
her right now. This is.
1:32:49
Christ, assholes galore. OK, Yeah.
1:32:53
But no, I, I mean, yeah, same thing as what Michael said right
1:32:56
there. It's, you know, as its own
1:32:58
thing, it's totally fine. It works.
1:33:01
Yeah, I agree. And I do think Aubrey and Mark
1:33:04
have very good performances. Yeah.
1:33:06
So yeah, definitely. And I honestly, I think the kid
1:33:08
actors are pretty good too, and that's hard to do.
1:33:10
Yeah, they have good chemistry. They have, like, fun.
1:33:12
I like their moments of like where they're bonding together
1:33:14
and watching Texas Chainsaw Massacre too.
1:33:17
Yeah, it feels realistic, Yeah. Other than like that maybe being
1:33:20
terribly out of order. Yeah, they did chop that up so
1:33:23
much. It's just frustrating because
1:33:25
they chose two of the most like iconic scenes from the movie and
1:33:28
then showed them backwards from each other.
1:33:30
That scene with the guy on the truck with the chainsaw, it was
1:33:34
one. It was one of the defining
1:33:36
moments of my childhood horror. Watching like that scarred the
1:33:40
shit out of me back in the day. OK, well that's it.
1:33:46
That's it for reviews and that's it for this episode, which means
1:33:49
that, unfortunately, is it for Child's Play.
1:33:52
We will be doing our wrap up next month as a bonus and we
1:33:57
will be announcing our next franchise very soon, yes.
1:34:00
So be on the lookout for that. In the meantime, be on the
1:34:04
lookout for next week when we talk about tremors.
1:34:07
Yes. Can't wait to finally talk about
1:34:11
some tremors. Right now you can rent it on
1:34:13
Prime, Google Play or Fandango at home.
1:34:16
It's a good movie, yeah. If you have never seen it, well,
1:34:20
absolutely. See it if you still have cable.
1:34:22
I'm sure that it's like playing on USA.
1:34:25
God, yeah. Always, Yeah.
1:34:28
Yeah, so I'm, I'm super excited for that.
1:34:30
It'll be fun time. I can't believe that like a year
1:34:34
ago, this man had never seen tremors.
1:34:36
And I was like, no, we need to. Yeah.
1:34:37
And now you're you're a total convert.
1:34:39
I love it, it's so good. Last movie we watched I was a
1:34:43
little bit let down. You were very frustrated about
1:34:46
the lack of snow. Yeah, the last one I watched was
1:34:49
Cold Day, and yeah, I think it was.
1:34:51
Yeah, it not only that, just the whole thing, it was a little
1:34:54
bit. They're really nerfed, Bert.
1:35:00
They berfed them. I'd like to take this moment to
