  Hello and welcome back to Inside Quotes,
• 0:12
  the show where my brother and I rewatch,
• 0:13
  review, and relive the staples of our childhood.
• 0:16
  This is episode one hundred and fifty-four,
• 0:18
  I'm your host, Jeremy, and with me today is my older brother Jonathan.
• 0:21
  Jonathan, welcome back to the show!
• 0:24
  Quack quack everybody, it's great to be back on the show.
• 0:27
  Reporting for duty, Jeremy.
• 0:28
  T minus zero seconds, we're here.
• 0:30
  You know what T minus means? Do we go over this?
• 0:34
  ~ is that like algebra?
• 0:37
  I'm not so sure.
• 0:38
  Yeah. When when the letters got mixed in with the the math I I kinda lost track.
• 0:43
  Well Jeremy, today we're continuing our series of movies based on Disney rides,
• 0:48
  and we've got an interesting pick today.
• 0:51
  The two thousand film Mission to Mars.
• 0:54
  Jeremy, have you ever seen this movie?
• 0:57
  Today was my first time ever watching this.
• 1:01
  That seems to be the trend with some of these that we've been doing lately.
• 1:04
  Yeah, I guess I hadn't seen a
• 1:05
  lot of random low budget actually this was a high budget,
• 1:08
  but
• 1:09
  It was, it was.
• 1:11
  I didn't watch a lot of the flops from two thousand.
• 1:12
  Mm-hmm.
• 1:14
  Well, let me tell you, Jeremy,
• 1:15
  I didn't watch this one growing up either because mom wouldn't let me.
• 1:20
  I have a story about this one.
• 1:22
  ~ as you know, we grew up big Apollo 13 fans in our family,
• 1:28
  you know.
• 1:28
  Mm-hmm.
• 1:29
  So our dad watched that movie a lot.
• 1:31
  We grew up watching it. So I see a trailer ~ on TV for a movie called Mission
• 1:37
  to Mars, and it's got this guy,
• 1:39
  Gary Sinise, that was in
• 1:42
  You know, Apollo thirteen. He didn't get to go on the last one,
• 1:44
  This is Apollo thirteen two.
• 1:44
  but he he he's gonna get to go on this trip.
• 1:48
  I wanna see this, you know? I I
• 1:50
  Yes.
• 1:52
  don't think I really thought it was an Apollo thirteen sequel,
• 1:55
  but I was like, it's gonna be just as good,
• 1:57
  They're going to the next planet.
• 1:57
  right? You know?
• 1:59
  It's pretty much if this was true,
• 2:01
  this would have been a sequel.
• 2:01
  Yeah. Mm-hmm.
• 2:03
  If this was true, but Apollo thirteen was not a real story.
• 2:08
  I dunno, I'd believe it.
• 2:13
  So I I asked mom if we could go to the movies to go see this one.
• 2:17
  Okay. And so she she's like, Well,
• 2:20
  let me look it up. And so she looked it up on a website called screenit dot com.
• 2:24
  I probably have talked about this in old episodes,
• 2:27
  but basically it was a website that parents could go to and see what kind
• 2:32
  of like objectionable content was in it,
• 2:34
  you know?
• 2:35
  Green it.
• 2:36
  It was called screenit dot com.
• 2:38
  They had like movie reviews and it would tell you if there was a bunch
• 2:40
  of cussing or sex and stuff like that in
• 2:42
  Yeah.
• 2:42
  it.
• 2:43
  And so she looked it up and she's like,
• 2:45
  there's too much language in it.
• 2:46
  We're not we're not going to see that one.
• 2:48
  So I never got to see this movie and I always wondered about it.
• 2:51
  Because I mean, you've got to admit,
• 2:54
  this movie poster is really cool.
• 2:57
  Let me pull it up.
• 2:58
  I made a note of that, actually.
• 3:00
  I said cool poster, by the way.
• 3:03
  Look at this. This is just some like eBay listing.
• 3:06
  that's a different one than I saw.
• 3:07
  I don't okay, there's another one.
• 3:09
  I've always thought this one was cool.
• 3:11
  It was so mysterious.
• 3:11
  That is cool.
• 3:12
  It was all red, you've got the guy like reaching out with his like glove
• 3:16
  Yeah.
• 3:16
  with this weird face on it. Kinda posing like we maybe we should have posed like
• 3:20
  this for our YouTube thumbnail,
• 3:21
  you know?
• 3:22
  Yeah, ~ we could.
• 3:26
  It's like wow, I gotta see this.
• 3:26
  the one I saw was that
• 3:28
  basically this but without the people up top.
• 3:31
  It was just the opening of the of the spaceship head thingy.
• 3:34
  I saw that one too, yeah. Mm-hmm.
• 3:36
  So
• 3:37
  yeah, it's a cool it kinda looks like Tron.
• 3:41
  Yeah, it it looks like a cool movie,
• 3:42
  right?
• 3:43
  Yeah. Tron Heiris, the coolest movie of the year.
• 3:46
  That's just the red Tron, that's all I know.
• 3:48
  Also, I haven't seen it, and I also know it's not cool.
• 3:52
  Mm. Mm. I I saw
• 3:52
  We'll see.
• 3:54
  it. It wasn't like great. If you like the Tron movies,
• 3:58
  you might
• 3:59
  Yeah.
• 3:59
  enjoy it some. ~ Jeremy famously falls asleep in Tron movies,
• 4:03
  so it might be a good movie for you to fall
• 4:03
  I've never seen a full Tron movie.
• 4:05
  fall asleep too.
• 4:07
  Okay.
• 4:09
  But before we move forward, Jeremy,
• 4:12
  do we have a little bit of housekeeping we wanna take care of here?
• 4:14
  I got housekeeping
• 4:15
  f first of all, we got a huge announcement.
• 4:17
  We got our first fan mail.
• 4:20
  Mm.
• 4:22
  If any of y'all recall watching our ~ Country Bears episode,
• 4:28
  episode one fifty one, ~ I made a ~ I I made a plea out to our audience,
• 4:34
  hey yo, if anybody has these lying around their house,
• 4:39
  please send them to us. The McDonalds two thousand and two McDonald's Happy Meal
• 4:45
  Country Bears themed to ~ s toys.
• 4:52
  And like three weeks later, we get an eBay box with the entire set,
• 4:58
  I might like to say, sealed.
• 4:59
  Sealed in the bags.
• 5:01
  I'm scared to open them. We've got Henry.
• 5:04
  ~ my goodness. This made my day.
• 5:08
  Shout out to Kelsey's mom.
• 5:10
  Yeah.
• 5:11
  We got Ted Betterhead.
• 5:14
  Man, that's awesome.
• 5:15
  These will be going up there. ~ I think we decided I am gonna open them.
• 5:19
  But
• 5:20
  Mm-hmm.
• 5:21
  I just wanted to be known that these were sealed and they are very valuable
• 5:24
  to us in our hearts. This is Big Al.
• 5:25
  Yeah. Mm-hmm. Yeah.
• 5:28
  I'm gonna throw him behind me for comedic effect.
• 5:31
  Yeah.
• 5:32
  We got Fred. He's shirtless, famously.
• 5:35
  We got Tennessee.
• 5:41
  That one hit myself.
• 5:45
  And then we got Barry Barrington,
• 5:47
  main character.
• 5:51
  Tricksey.
• 5:52
  So many of them.
• 5:53
  There's so many I think there's eight.
• 5:54
  And then last but not least, Zubzuba.
• 6:00
  Ha ha.
• 6:01
  And then they're they also came with these like little watercolor sets,
• 6:06
  also sealed. ~
• 6:06
  Yeah. I don't remember these.
• 6:09
  I don't really remember them either,
• 6:10
  but they have McDonald's symbol on them.
• 6:13
  So they may have you know I I think they did come packed inside the little bag.
• 6:17
  You know? ~ but yeah.
• 6:20
  I'm sure these don't work very well,
• 6:22
  but
• 6:23
  Little colouring sheets.
• 6:25
  It's so cool.
• 6:26
  Yeah.
• 6:26
  Thank you so much.
• 6:27
  Yeah, that was really cool. That was a a nice surprise to to get in the mail.
• 6:31
  Yes, it was. It really was. And it's like I felt very powerful just putting that
• 6:38
  out into the universe and then our loved ones just sending it to us.
• 6:42
  How great is that?
• 6:44
  Gotta be careful what you ask for.
• 6:46
  Yeah.
• 6:46
  Okay, that being said, listeners,
• 6:48
  if you have seen a 2007
• 6:54
  era Baskin Robbins Shrek cardboard cutout with him holding a Baskin Robbins,
• 7:00
  I don't know, blizzard, whatever they're called,
• 7:01
  let me know because I need that as well.
• 7:03
  Mm-hmm.
• 7:05
  Because that
• 7:06
  I had in my house and I don't know what happened to it.
• 7:10
  We got rid of it because it wasn't very movable.
• 7:13
  We had it for years, I feel like,
• 7:16
  and it just didn't last like I mean,
• 7:16
  Yeah. It was great.
• 7:18
  it was fine,
• 7:19
  but we just eventually it's like,
• 7:20
  You gotta get rid of it.
• 7:24
  Anyways, thank you. Shout out to Sean.
• 7:26
  Psh Man
• 7:29
  genuinely made my day. That was so cool.
• 7:31
  Yeah.
• 7:31
  I think
• 7:32
  I only had the I I only had two or three of them from the actual running,
• 7:36
  so I didn't even really know what they looked like in real life.
• 7:41
  The full complete set of course.
• 7:41
  Yeah. Mm-hmm.
• 7:43
  So but yeah. Alright. Well that's our fan mail segment.
• 7:48
  We probably won't
• 7:49
  Mm-hmm.
• 7:50
  get an one of those for a good while.
• 7:51
  Un I mean unless you know
• 7:55
  You never know. You
• 7:57
  never know what kind of stuff crazy stuff that you've put out there
• 8:00
  in previous episodes. We've got over a hundred and fifty episodes,
• 8:01
  You never know. Yeah.
• 8:03
  so you never know.
• 8:04
  Jonathan, you go you make the next request.
• 8:06
  Mine was mine was fulfilled, so
• 8:09
  Yeah, I'll have to think about that.
• 8:10
  Hmm.
• 8:11
  Mm-hmm.
• 8:14
  Yeah, well I'll I'll think about that for the next episode.
• 8:17
  If
• 8:17
  Right.
• 8:18
  we turn this into a recurring segment.
• 8:20
  We just ask for stuff.
• 8:22
  It's like the Christmas list.
• 8:26
  Anyways.
• 8:26
  Well, I think it's time we talk about behind the attraction,
• 8:31
  Jeremy, for Mission to Mars. So,
• 8:34
  like I said, we're doing movies based on Disney rides,
• 8:37
  so I've been trying to do a little bit of research about the rides that inspired
• 8:40
  the movie. And here we go.
• 8:44
  Here is the origin of this ride.
• 8:46
  It started actually as a Disneyland ride,
• 8:49
  but when it started it was called Rocket to the Moon.
• 8:53
  Okay, so
• 8:54
  Rocket to the moon.
• 8:56
  yeah.
• 8:57
  Okay.
• 8:57
  So it
• 8:58
  as we kind of talked about in our Tomorrowland episode,
• 9:00
  how like tomorrow kept on coming,
• 9:03
  you know, and like a world where we people were landing on the moon,
• 9:05
  they had to keep reinventing Tomorrowland.
• 9:08
  And that's kind of what happened with this ride.
• 9:10
  It started as
• 9:10
  Yeah.
• 9:11
  a rocket to the moon, then it was flight to the moon ~ in the sixties,
• 9:17
  and then in the sev mid seventies,
• 9:19
  ~ that is when they debuted Mission to Mars.
• 9:22
  And the main
• 9:24
  It was actually called Mission to Mars.
• 9:24
  reason for that?
• 9:26
  Yes.
• 9:26
  Mm-hmm.
• 9:27
  Okay. For some reason I thought it was s Mission Space.
• 9:31
  I'll get to that because I I was confused about that too.
• 9:33
  Okay.
• 9:33
  okay.
• 9:35
  So ~ Mission to Mars, it was a ride,
• 9:39
  an attraction that was in ~ Tomorrowland at Disney World.
• 9:42
  That's that's the main area I'm gonna be focused on.
• 9:46
  Mm-hmm.
• 9:48
  and basically it was a theater in the round simulation that took guests
• 9:54
  on a fictional space flight. So it's like everyone is in like a
• 9:58
  It's like in a round auditorium where everyone's like facing each other.
• 10:02
  But they had like windows up on the walls that had screens that
• 10:07
  was basically like simulating this flight,
• 10:10
  you know, to Mars sort of thing.
• 10:12
  I did have to look up a video to kind of try and picture
• 10:15
  it because unfortunately this this ride's no longer there and so I don't have
• 10:19
  ~
• 10:19
  any f I don't have any footage from my trip,
• 10:21
  you know. So yeah.
• 10:23
  Yeah, I never wrote this. No not
• 10:25
  once.
• 10:26
  It it closed in nineteen ninety three,
• 10:28
  which begs the question, why
• 10:28
  That is why
• 10:30
  did they make a movie about it in the year two thousand?
• 10:32
  But I don't know.
• 10:33
  Yeah, were they hoping to
• 10:36
  start a space land? That's weird.
• 10:38
  Yeah.
• 10:40
  Okay.
• 10:41
  so the quick description of the ride is you're taken on a simulated trip from Earth
• 10:47
  to Mars to explore the planet.
• 10:48
  You encounter like an emergency,
• 10:51
  like a meteor shower, and then you race back home,
• 10:54
  and then the ride ends. ~ you start out in mission control and you get briefed
• 11:00
  by a flight crew and you're basically prepared for the mission.
• 11:04
  You launch and
• 11:07
  It starts out with just a journey kind of through space as you're traveling towards
• 11:10
  Mars. You kind of see things up on the screen as you go by.
• 11:13
  You land on Mars, and from the video that I saw,
• 11:17
  you do just kind of it's kind of like a tour around the planet for a little while.
• 11:21
  Mm-hmm.
• 11:21
  You're kind
• 11:21
  of exploring the surface and and whatnot.
• 11:24
  ~ and then the video was kind of confusing to me that I watched,
• 11:29
  but what I looked up is basically it's a meteor storm that like damages
• 11:33
  the the spacecraft.
• 11:35
  And they're like, We gotta return home.
• 11:37
  And so then it's like an all all out like just we gotta get back home as quick
• 11:42
  as we can kind of thing. ~ yeah.
• 11:44
  Apollo thirteen.
• 11:45
  ~ and then I mean,
• 11:49
  spoiler alert, you land back on Earth and the right ends.
• 11:52
  So that's kind of basically all that it is.
• 11:53
  Thank goodness.
• 11:56
  It is like a simulator.
• 11:58
  Yeah.
• 11:59
  but I'm sure that there are people that have pretty cool memories of it.
• 12:02
  ~
• 12:03
  From the video that I saw, the mission control portion,
• 12:06
  they had a lot of like the audio,
• 12:08
  like animatronics that we talked about in the Tomorrowland.
• 12:10
  Mm-hmm.
• 12:10
  They're
• 12:11
  they're kind of like all the employees that are working at the stations and stuff,
• 12:15
  and like the NASA workers are that are you know briefing you on the mission.
• 12:19
  So that was kind of cool. But the ride closed
• 12:24
  in nineteen ninety-three and after that it
• 12:31
  Turned into a ride that was called Extraterrestrial Alien Encounter.
• 12:36
  And Extraterrestrial was stylized as like Extra Terror Estrial.
• 12:40
  Terroristurial, okay. And they couldn't ~ they couldn't
• 12:41
  So it was like it was supposed to be like a like a scary ride and it
• 12:44
  was I didn't look too much into it,
• 12:47
  but it was like
• 12:47
  steal the IP of Universal. 'Cause they had an ET ride?
• 12:50
  Yeah, that that universal had the E T
• 12:52
  ride, yeah.
• 12:55
  I don't know if that's still there,
• 12:56
  but I I do remember writing that at some point.
• 12:58
  But
• 12:59
  Didn't they
• 13:00
  used to like you could put your name there and it would like read your name
• 13:02
  off of everybody in the cart? So a lot of people would just put the same name down
• 13:07
  and it was like Daryl, Daryl, Daryl,
• 13:10
  Daryl
• 13:14
  I don't remember that, but maybe.
• 13:16
  Yeah.
• 13:16
  Think that's a fact.
• 13:18
  Okay, okay. The main thing I I just remember the ride was like bicycles
• 13:23
  and I I remember walking through the forest,
• 13:26
  basically like
• 13:27
  Yeah.
• 13:27
  in the the ride trying to in the line trying to get to the ride and stuff,
• 13:30
  but but that's a whole other movie.
• 13:32
  Hmm. That's a whole nother we already covered that movie.
• 13:34
  Whole other ride, you know.
• 13:35
  Yeah.
• 13:38
  So yeah, extraterrestrial alien encounter is what replaced it.
• 13:43
  And then that closed. It turned into I think it's like Stitches Great Escape.
• 13:48
  And then Stitches Great Escape,
• 13:51
  I think turned into it might be what like the Monsters Inc.
• 13:54
  laugh floor now. I c I could be getting that wrong,
• 13:56
  but ~
• 13:57
  okay.
• 13:59
  it it's kind of had a history.
• 14:00
  So that was at Disney World, ~ at Magic Kingdom.
• 14:05
  Now you brought up Mission Space,
• 14:07
  which was a ride that opened in two thousand and three.
• 14:13
  ~ at Epcot. Yeah.
• 14:14
  Epcot, okay.
• 14:16
  And the difference between the two rides
• 14:19
  is ~ basically Mission Space was trying to like simulate
• 14:25
  an actual what it would feel like to go on a like be basically a rocket launch
• 14:31
  and to land on Mars, like what it would feel like to be ~ an astronaut
• 14:36
  and like you go through the test training and that sort of thing.
• 14:39
  Instead
• 14:39
  Mm-hmm.
• 14:40
  of with like Mission Space, you're kind of like watching
• 14:43
  a mission happen like on a screen and stuff.
• 14:45
  This was supposed to be more immersive.
• 14:48
  You're in like the POV perspective.
• 14:50
  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 14:51
  Have you ever ridden mission space before?
• 14:54
  Okay.
• 14:55
  Like no.
• 14:57
  I have not. Is that the one that's in the Epcot ball?
• 14:59
  No. Spaceship Earth.
• 15:00
  No, that's Spaceship Earth. Yeah.
• 15:03
  You know, too they got too many space rides.
• 15:04
  Yeah.
• 15:06
  No wonder they closed them down.
• 15:07
  Yeah. And that one is more about like we go through like all of human civilization.
• 15:12
  Yeah.
• 15:14
  kind of kind of a ride.
• 15:15
  Okay.
• 15:16
  I never did that one until this last one.
• 15:18
  maybe I should send you some footage of Spaceship Earth,
• 15:20
  Is that one still around? Or is that
• 15:21
  because that's all I've got.
• 15:22
  one Guardians of the Galaxy now?
• 15:24
  I'm so confused on this. Okay.
• 15:25
  no. Mission space is still there,
• 15:27
  yeah.
• 15:29
  Yeah, I don't remember what Guardians were placed.
• 15:31
  There's there's so many rides and so much history of Yeah.
• 15:32
  Okay. We're not we're not Disney heads as much as we are,
• 15:36
  Mhm.
• 15:37
  as we should be, as we're more bush gardens heads.
• 15:39
  ~
• 15:45
  so that's that's the difference between the two.
• 15:47
  ~ the confusing thing is Gary Sinise is actually like the narrator or like
• 15:53
  in the pre show for Mission Space.
• 15:55
  I read that okay. Was that sp
• 15:56
  Yeah. So there's like
• 15:58
  a connection, but it's not really Mission to Mars.
• 16:01
  It's not because of the movie either,
• 16:03
  'cause that was there before.
• 16:05
  Yeah. I think it's
• 16:07
  Right.
• 16:07
  less about his role being in like Mission to Mars and more about him just being like
• 16:12
  an astronaut in a lot of movies.
• 16:14
  Or at least or at least two movies,
• 16:15
  He's that space guy. Yeah.
• 16:17
  I don't know.
• 16:20
  So yeah.
• 16:24
  the thing I know about Mission Space is that it's famously one that will like makes
• 16:31
  guests nauseous. Like it it's supposed to it's like on a centrifuge and
• 16:36
  so there's a lot of spinning and like it's supposed to put like a certain amount
• 16:41
  of like G force on you to like simulate it and a lot of people
• 16:44
  Mm-hmm.
• 16:45
  like don't ri like the ride. And I've only done it one time years ago,
• 16:50
  the first time I went to Epcot.
• 16:52
  And everyone was like, that one's terrible,
• 16:54
  like it makes me sick and I was like,
• 16:56
  Well, I don't know, I gotta at least try it once.
• 16:58
  So I went on it and I just remember it being like it was it's like
• 17:02
  a dumb little simulator. Like it didn't really
• 17:04
  Yeah.
• 17:04
  feel anything like to me. I don't know.
• 17:06
  But maybe I I'm not that sensitive to it.
• 17:08
  Problems? Tigers solve
• 17:14
  Like it I was just like that was it.
• 17:16
  It just kinda rumbled while we like looked at a screen,
• 17:18
  so I don't know.
• 17:19
  Yeah.
• 17:20
  So Mission Space wasn't really my favorite ride either.
• 17:24
  Sure, sure.
• 17:27
  But there is a mission to Mars connection and so it's in the spirit
• 17:30
  of these this history of space travel rides that Disney has,
• 17:34
  starting with like flight to the moon all the way to mission space that's there
• 17:39
  Yeah.
• 17:39
  today.
• 17:42
  And that's why we're covering it today.
• 17:44
  Because it justified a movie. And it
• 17:48
  Yeah, somehow.
• 17:49
  this was not a staple of my childhood.
• 17:51
  But it could be.
• 17:53
  I wanted it to be. Mom said no.
• 17:55
  Was
• 17:56
  Yep.
• 17:56
  she right? Stay till the end to find out.
• 17:59
  Possibly. I didn't
• 18:01
  Mm-hmm.
• 18:01
  really I guess there was cussing,
• 18:03
  a lot of cussing in this. Hm.
• 18:08
  I the movie it wasn't actually a Walt Disney productions movie.
• 18:12
  It was a touchstone. So yeah,
• 18:15
  But they're owned by them, right?
• 18:16
  it's still owned,
• 18:16
  Yeah.
• 18:17
  so there's like Buena Vista pictures or distribution.
• 18:21
  They kind of have some other labels,
• 18:23
  other like mini studios that w they would
• 18:24
  Same.
• 18:25
  kind of use for like we don't wanna say this is a Disney movie,
• 18:29
  even though we own it. But yeah.
• 18:30
  They also did
• 18:31
  ~ famous TV shows, one of which being
• 18:39
  Home improvement.
• 18:39
  Yeah.
• 18:40
  Yeah. they did all the earnest movies,
• 18:43
  you know?
• 18:45
  Really? Okay.
• 18:46
  Yeah, touchstone. That's what I when I think
• 18:48
  touchstone, like that little studio logo that comes on at the start,
• 18:52
  I instantly
• 18:53
  Yeah.
• 18:53
  think of Ernest every time.
• 18:55
  That's so okay. Yeah. Yeah,
• 18:58
  that makes sense.
• 18:59
  Ernest Ernest goes to camp, Ernest goes to jail,
• 19:01
  Ernest
• 19:02
  We really gotta cover that one next
• 19:02
  goes fill in the blank.
• 19:04
  year. We gotta cover Ernest Goes to Camp next year,
• 19:06
  because it's the fortieth anniversary,
• 19:08
  and we'll have big plans.
• 19:08
  We've been talking about it. Yeah.
• 19:10
  It
• 19:11
  was filmed not too far from here and we keep wanting to go to the
• 19:13
  Yep.
• 19:13
  event. So maybe next year.
• 19:15
  Maybe next year. Alright, well,
• 19:18
  shall I share some quick facts and stats?
• 19:23
  Yeah, let's go through it.
• 19:25
  Alright, well this movie came out in 2000,
• 19:27
  which was twenty-six years ago.
• 19:29
  It was directed by another Mission Impossible director.
• 19:32
  Wow, two in a row. Brian DePalma.
• 19:35
  And he he's known for directing Scarface
• 19:39
  Yeah.
• 19:40
  and Obsession.
• 19:42
  Huh? Obsession from nineteen seventy nine.
• 19:42
  Mm. Obsession. ~ okay.
• 19:46
  Completely different story, but
• 19:46
  Okay.
• 19:49
  it cut I was like, ~ interesting.
• 19:51
  ~ any s some other stuff in the seventies.
• 19:55
  A lot of like action thriller crime movies,
• 19:59
  I would say. Not very family friendly ones.
• 20:01
  He's like Yeah, definitely
• 20:04
  not. V very violent movies, I think.
• 20:06
  ~ he but he came up in that that same era with like George Lucas
• 20:12
  and Steven Spielberg.
• 20:13
  Mm.
• 20:13
  ~ that like new era of Hollywood that came in.
• 20:16
  Like Brian De Palma was like one of the people that George Lucas showed
• 20:21
  in early cut of Star Wars too.
• 20:22
  And
• 20:23
  Really?
• 20:23
  like there there was like a whole group of like those early like filmmakers
• 20:26
  This guy. Okay. He's in there.
• 20:26
  and stuff. So he's he's been around for sure.
• 20:29
  He's a big
• 20:30
  name director.
• 20:32
  ~ the Untouchables, in the eighties,
• 20:34
  I've heard of that. The Untouchables seems
• 20:34
  this one. I've I haven't seen it,
• 20:36
  but it's kind of a back burner.
• 20:37
  like something that Sean Spencer from Psych would accuse Gus of being like.
• 20:42
  Like don't be Kevin Costner in the Untouchables.
• 20:45
  Gus, don't be at Kevin
• 20:45
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 20:47
  Costner in the untouchables. That's hard to say.
• 20:49
  Anyways.
• 20:50
  Yeah.
• 20:53
  Alright, well this movie is rated PG.
• 20:56
  It has a Rotten Tomatoes critic score at twenty-four percent and
• 21:00
  an audience score of six points higher at thirty percent.
• 21:04
  The tagline on the poster says getting there was the easy part.
• 21:08
  This movie is an hour and fifty-four minutes long.
• 21:12
  It is not on Disney Plus as of this recording,
• 21:16
  and it's very hard to find. you gotta find the DVD for this sucker.
• 21:20
  And let me tell you what, you did.
• 21:21
  You can rent it, but yeah.
• 21:23
  Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
• 21:23
  You can rent it, yeah.
• 21:25
  Who's r who's renting it for three ninety nine?
• 21:27
  I guess technically me.
• 21:27
  Mm-hmm.
• 21:30
  But yeah. Jonathan, you found the D V D last week
• 21:35
  and ~ I guess there's a reason this isn't on streaming,
• 21:39
  huh?
• 21:42
  What do you mean by that?
• 21:44
  I don't know, it just I like the movie.
• 21:50
  But it's not good. Question mark?
• 21:52
  Yeah. yeah, yeah. We'll save it for the test.
• 21:53
  We'll see. We'll see about the test.
• 21:54
  We'll talk about it.
• 21:55
  Alright, well let's get into this IQ test.
• 21:57
  Wow, this is the earliest we've gotten into the test.
• 21:59
  This is great. Great
• 22:00
  Mm-hmm.
• 22:01
  timing. Okay.
• 22:02
  Shall we start?
• 22:06
  The IQ test two point
• 22:09
  We have a test for our movies that meet our IQ standards.
• 22:12
  We have a series of binary and quantitative tests to help best categorize these
• 22:16
  movies as staples, stapleist, or just plain quacks.
• 22:19
  Movies must collect at least seven to nine points to be a staple,
• 22:26
  ten points to be perfect stapleist,
• 22:28
  and then less than that, it's a quack.
• 22:33
  ~ so yeah, let's go ahead and get started with our quotable quotes test.
• 22:38
  Jonathan, how quotable is this movie to you?
• 22:42
  Well let me tell you, Jeremy, I didn't write down a single one.
• 22:46
  No.
• 22:46
  Did you not? Okay.
• 22:48
  Yeah, I was I was reaching. I wrote down
• 22:51
  That yeah.
• 22:52
  one, two, I w I wrote down two.
• 22:55
  And
• 22:55
  Okay, okay.
• 22:56
  they were both Phil. ~ Phil's quotes.
• 22:59
  Is that Jerry O'Connell's character?
• 23:00
  Jerry O'Connell. Yeah.
• 23:02
  Okay.
• 23:04
  I just loved the way that he said Great,
• 23:05
  great, great, great, great, great,
• 23:07
  great. As he was panicking.
• 23:08
  Yeah. Mm-hmm.
• 23:12
  ~ there's they're us, we're them.
• 23:15
  I looked that up c but it it you know I put it up there.
• 23:18
  Mm-hmm. Yeah.
• 23:20
  Us equals
• 23:20
  them 'cause I don't know.
• 23:24
  We're really reaching here. I think my
• 23:25
  Yeah that
• 23:26
  favorite one is ~ Phil isn't here anymore.
• 23:29
  He left for Earth five minutes ago.
• 23:31
  Please leave a message after the beep.
• 23:33
  Okay, that part confused me, let me tell ya.
• 23:36
  Because that
• 23:36
  really? You thought he hit the button?
• 23:38
  no, I thought he was going crazy.
• 23:40
  Like I thought something was happening to him,
• 23:42
  'cause it was like out of nowhere.
• 23:44
  Mm.
• 23:44
  Like you know
• 23:45
  how Don Cheadle's character, like they show up to rescue him and he's crazy?
• 23:48
  Yeah, he goes crazy. Yeah.
• 23:50
  Like I
• 23:50
  I thought it was like something weird was happening to him.
• 23:53
  Like it there was something
• 23:54
  no.
• 23:54
  in the delivery, but not just that.
• 23:56
  The music there was like
• 23:58
  Mm-hmm.
• 23:59
  they made it sound ominous when he said it.
• 24:01
  And so I it like
• 24:03
  I thought I was like picking up that something weird was happening,
• 24:05
  but no, he was just like frustrated and you know.
• 24:07
  No, he's just being funny and mad and scared.
• 24:09
  He was so happy they
• 24:10
  were there.
• 24:11
  He was such a panicking guy. ~ man,
• 24:16
  that was a tense moment where he was pr this close from pressing the button.
• 24:19
  Hm.
• 24:20
  Yeah.
• 24:22
  Yeah, I like you said, there there was a few things here and there,
• 24:25
  but like they were all like a reach to me and I so I just didn't even write down
• 24:28
  Yeah, they were. I
• 24:29
  this go round.
• 24:30
  don't think these are all quotes,
• 24:32
  but they're not inside quotes,
• 24:33
  I don't think.
• 24:34
  Yeah. ~ and I was
• 24:36
  gonna clarify, I have seen this movie once before.
• 24:39
  I watched
• 24:39
  Yes.
• 24:40
  it ~ maybe two or three years ago for the first time 'cause I was curious about,
• 24:44
  hey, what what is this movie all about?
• 24:46
  Right.
• 24:47
  But yeah.
• 24:49
  Who doesn't love a space movie?
• 24:50
  You know?
• 24:51
  Mm-hmm.
• 24:52
  there is another quote that is a quote from a quote from real life.
• 24:57
  ~
• 24:58
  Mm.
• 24:58
  after Mars recovery is given the okay to enter orbit around Mars,
• 25:02
  Woody Blake says, Let's light this candle.
• 25:05
  And this is exactly what Alan Shepherd,
• 25:07
  the first American in space, said just before liftoff in
• 25:11
  his inaugural Mercury flight.
• 25:11
  Okay, cool.
• 25:13
  So that's pretty cool. and then another quote was Sunk
• 25:18
  Some couples dance, others go to Mars.
• 25:20
  But that's a total of five quotes.
• 25:26
  Yeah.
• 25:27
  I don't think it's enough to pass.
• 25:28
  So I
• 25:29
  Yeah. I ~ I don't think so.
• 25:32
  I'm okay with giving that a good old fail.
• 25:34
  How about you?
• 25:35
  Yeah.
• 25:36
  Alright. Next test We've
• 25:41
  got the magnificent music test.
• 25:43
  Also worth one possible point.
• 25:48
  ~ John, take this one away.
• 25:50
  Okay. We're gonna talk about the magnificent music.
• 25:53
  Can you name or identify the sound ~ of the theme by heart?
• 25:57
  does the soundtrack have any iconic music associated with it?
• 26:01
  Okay, I I've got some what the wives say
• 26:05
  Okay.
• 26:06
  notes. I'm gonna sprinkle them in throughout.
• 26:08
  Okay. Kelsey thought the music was annoying in this movie.
• 26:15
  She did not like
• 26:17
  Kind of agree.
• 26:18
  she did not like the the
• 26:19
  the music and I I I agree. Specifically and we'll we'll give some more information
• 26:25
  about the composer and stuff in a second,
• 26:27
  but the scene where they I think it's when they go outside to repair like
• 26:33
  the leak on the ship and then like
• 26:35
  Mm-hmm.
• 26:36
  they have to it's like the extra extra vehicular activity,
• 26:41
  the EVA, is that what it is or I don't know.
• 26:43
  I think so.
• 26:44
  When
• 26:44
  they go outside anyway, there was like this organ that was playing in the back.
• 26:50
  Yeah.
• 26:50
  And it was
• 26:50
  so loud in the mix. And I c I said to Kelsey as we were watching it,
• 26:54
  it's like, it sounds like a batter is like almost up at a baseball game.
• 26:58
  Hm dun dun dun dun dun.
• 26:58
  Like that's what the music sounded like.
• 27:00
  It's
• 27:00
  like it was just the way the music sounded.
• 27:02
  It was it was trying to be tense and stuff.
• 27:04
  But
• 27:05
  Mm-hmm.
• 27:06
  yeah. ~ but here here's what I'll say about the composer.
• 27:11
  I don't know how to say his name.
• 27:12
  Inyo Morricone. Iconic composer.
• 27:16
  Yeah, in the Macroni.
• 27:18
  ~
• 27:19
  What has he done?
• 27:20
  He ha he
• 27:21
  The good, the bad and the ugly?
• 27:24
  What is that? I'm just kidding.
• 27:25
  You know. He he's an iconic
• 27:26
  I'm just kidding.
• 27:28
  ~ Westerns composer for sure. ~ but if you look
• 27:31
  Right. Okay.
• 27:32
  him up on Spotify and click the first song,
• 27:34
  you have heard it in like every car commercial for the past twenty years.
• 27:40
  Like it's like it's or the theme
• 27:41
  Pum boom boom ping.
• 27:45
  to ~ good the good, the bad and the ugly.
• 27:48
  It's it's music that has like taken a life outside of its own of the movie.
• 27:50
  okay. Well
• 27:54
  Like any time there's a showdown between two characters,
• 27:57
  like a in a comedy or something,
• 27:59
  they'll like pull that music and put it there.
• 28:01
  You know what I mean? Like
• 28:01
  okay. I know exactly
• 28:03
  which one you're talking about.
• 28:04
  That
• 28:04
  car commercial. ~
• 28:07
  ~
• 28:12
  I think it's yeah. It's called
• 28:15
  had it pulled up a second ago because was listening to it.
• 28:17
  ~ ecstasy of gold is ~ is the one I'm talking about.
• 28:23
  And then there's the theme the to the good,
• 28:25
  the bad and the ugly. But he so he he's a he's a very well known
• 28:31
  composer. Probably did most of his work like in the seventies and kind
• 28:35
  of in that era and stuff. So yeah.
• 28:36
  Hm. It seems to be a trend that there's
• 28:39
  a lot of well known actors, directors,
• 28:41
  Yeah.
• 28:41
  and composers, but this does not seem to be their best work.
• 28:46
  I I would say that.
• 28:47
  ~ Okay.
• 28:47
  We can talk about this in the acting,
• 28:49
  but
• 28:51
  so I would say ~ apart from that,
• 28:53
  I I didn't find the score of this movie to be that memorable and
• 28:58
  Yeah, no.
• 28:58
  some moments were just kind of downright annoying,
• 29:00
  I I thought. ~
• 29:02
  Yeah.
• 29:03
  I did like they did have featured a Van Halen song,
• 29:07
  Dance the Night Away, and I liked that scene in general and I liked the song.
• 29:08
  They did, yeah. Yeah.
• 29:10
  ~
• 29:13
  but there wasn't enough
• 29:15
  other songs like needle drops in the movie for me to like
• 29:18
  Mm-hmm.
• 29:18
  give the music a point, I would say.
• 29:21
  I agree. The only note I wrote down was not as good or memorable.
• 29:28
  So I might have to fail this if you will.
• 29:31
  I think it's a zero.
• 29:32
  Alrighty. Alright.
• 29:35
  How about our next test, Jonathan?
• 29:38
  Take us off.
• 29:40
  Well, we're gonna talk about the story test.
• 29:44
  From page to screen, is the script a masterpiece or was another draft needed?
• 29:49
  Hmm.
• 29:52
  You know what about the story here?
• 29:55
  It did it check some boxes off for me,
• 29:59
  but some things I it lost me completely.
• 30:02
  Like I it's a great premise. Anything Mars related is gonna
• 30:07
  be an interesting premise. I'll have that.
• 30:10
  It I don't even know if it feels complete,
• 30:13
  though. The writing
• 30:23
  I don't know, there's character development,
• 30:25
  there is world building, very much world building.
• 30:28
  It's a whole nother planet that we've never seen with our eyes.
• 30:32
  ~ it's not the funniest movie.
• 30:39
  It does have heart. I don't know,
• 30:40
  this one's it it the story there was a part after the sandworm storm,
• 30:46
  whatever you want to call it.
• 30:47
  Yeah.
• 30:48
  yeah. Kelsey was like, Is this Dune?
• 30:51
  Yeah, it was like Dune. ~
• 30:55
  it it lost me right after that.
• 30:57
  And it kept jumping between different I like things and like jumping fast forwarding
• 31:00
  That's that was pretty early in the movie.
• 31:02
  it kept
• 31:03
  fast forwarding all the important parts of a good space movie.
• 31:05
  Like the launch. We don't see a single launch in this movie.
• 31:10
  It is yeah, so for a movie that's called Mission to Mars,
• 31:13
  it's kind of two missions. Like you
• 31:15
  Yeah.
• 31:16
  see the astronauts before a group of go up,
• 31:18
  and then it cuts, it says like thirteen months later.
• 31:21
  And then they're
• 31:21
  Yeah.
• 31:22
  just there exploring the planet,
• 31:23
  doing scientific tests and and such.
• 31:26
  There's like five six minutes of them in space.
• 31:30
  Period. Maybe ten.
• 31:33
  There's a whole like tethering
• 31:34
  Might be a little bit. Yeah.
• 31:36
  scene which w I really liked the tethering scene.
• 31:39
  That was cool. That was very
• 31:40
  Yeah.
• 31:41
  intense. And then they had to kill the guy off 'cause they had to have four people.
• 31:45
  Yeah.
• 31:46
  Technically. I don't know. ~ it just was like it was very interesting.
• 31:52
  I I liked that sequence. That the sequence between like well like finding
• 31:58
  out like they're gonna go and see if there's any survivors on the planet after
• 32:02
  the incident with the the sandworm,
• 32:05
  meteor storm. and so that like sequ of like trying to go to there and land,
• 32:11
  I thought that was a pretty good section of the movie.
• 32:14
  Yeah.
• 32:15
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think them figuring it out,
• 32:18
  like the problem solving section,
• 32:20
  like the three of them trying to figure out what their plan is and then like
• 32:25
  the mission commander's like, Hold up,
• 32:26
  hold up, hold up. We haven't figured stuff out yet And they're like,
• 32:29
  Well there's no time I think I I I stopped paying attention in that part.
• 32:37
  And it was just pretty boring from there.
• 32:39
  For the next thirty to forty minutes I was very bored.
• 32:42
  Until
• 32:42
  Yeah.
• 32:43
  they got they were in space again.
• 32:49
  yeah, I I definitely remember too,
• 32:51
  like it seemed like a typical like space kind
• 32:58
  of survival story. And then feeling like when you got to the end it was kind
• 33:02
  of a a twist to make it more sci fi.
• 33:05
  And I was like I was pretty lost at the the first time I watched it.
• 33:08
  Hmm.
• 33:12
  Yeah, that was weird. He's just swimming
• 33:13
  It was kind of a weird scene.
• 33:15
  in electron water, like flying through space with the Martian lady.
• 33:20
  Mm.
• 33:22
  That was weird.
• 33:23
  Like i it could have been two separate movies.
• 33:26
  Yeah, I it it wa it was kinda strange.
• 33:32
  Let's see.
• 33:33
  But
• 33:33
  I like that his decision was like,
• 33:35
  I'm going home for real.
• 33:37
  Mm-hmm.
• 33:37
  This is my destiny. I'm gonna go explore space with my ancestors from Mars.
• 33:44
  Yeah.
• 33:46
  So yeah, well we can talk about that a little bit.
• 33:49
  So
• 33:49
  Mm-hmm.
• 33:50
  but before we get there, so they land there,
• 33:53
  they find Don Cheadle's character,
• 33:54
  Luke Graham. I have
• 33:56
  Yep.
• 33:57
  to look up his name. I don't remember anybody's name in this movie,
• 33:59
  except for
• 33:59
  I know.
• 34:00
  woody. ~
• 34:02
  I barely remembered his name.
• 34:06
  they find him on the planet. He's the only survivor after this incident,
• 34:09
  and it it took them like a year to get back to him.
• 34:12
  Yeah. It's six months to get
• 34:12
  So that it it was a little confusing.
• 34:14
  there.
• 34:14
  Yeah, it was little confusing,
• 34:16
  but also I appreciated the like the realisticness of it.
• 34:19
  It wasn't like he had just been there
• 34:20
  Mm-hmm.
• 34:21
  for like a few days or something.
• 34:22
  Like it really does take that long to get there.
• 34:25
  But he's like kinda gone crazy.
• 34:27
  And so like he doesn't even trust that they're real when they get there.
• 34:31
  ~
• 34:31
  Right. Yeah.
• 34:33
  I didn't understand that room that they were in wa it was like a tent
• 34:39
  and they were grow he was like growing all the it
• 34:40
  The greenhouse.
• 34:41
  was like a greenhouse, but I like,
• 34:42
  How are they breathing in there?
• 34:45
  ~ it I think it's
• 34:47
  Is it in enclosed in like a greater thing?
• 34:50
  in an enclosed thing.
• 34:51
  There was like wind blowing and stuff.
• 34:54
  What's weird is that in The Martian they also did that.
• 34:58
  Okay.
• 34:59
  So I feel like I would have liked this movie a lot more if I hadn't seen
• 35:03
  the Martian, because
• 35:04
  Yeah.
• 35:04
  the Martian is a much better survival story on Mars.
• 35:07
  I
• 35:07
  Yeah. So yeah, they get there,
• 35:09
  they land, and they kind of they start to explore I guess
• 35:14
  the the face that's sticking up out of there is like transmitting
• 35:19
  all these these like signals and stuff.
• 35:21
  So they're like trying
• 35:21
  Yeah.
• 35:22
  to figure out how to decode what that means and anyway,
• 35:25
  all that being said, I was gonna get to the reveal.
• 35:28
  It's like when they go and actually explore and they they make contact with
• 35:33
  this alien
• 35:33
  Mm-hmm.
• 35:34
  Martian being. So I was trying to track it.
• 35:37
  Basically what happens was the Martians evacuated the planet after a meteor strike.
• 35:44
  Yes. Well
• 35:45
  Okay. And then
• 35:47
  they sent some of their DNA in like seeded Earth.
• 35:51
  So they like sent they basically they're the cause of evolution in on
• 35:57
  Mm-hmm.
• 35:57
  the world. Is that is that what they're implying,
• 35:59
  I think?
• 35:59
  They shot
• 36:00
  a bunch of fish into the sea.
• 36:02
  And then humans are like one step in the evolutionary sequence towards becoming like
• 36:09
  that a Martian. Is that am I understanding that right?
• 36:11
  That's why
• 36:12
  I believe so.
• 36:13
  he's like, I I'm going home technically because this is these are my people.
• 36:18
  They're just more evolved than me,
• 36:19
  right?
• 36:22
  Sure.
• 36:26
  It's a little confusing.
• 36:27
  Yeah. And to that I say like I just wanted to quote TJ Detweiler's
• 36:31
  dad from Recess Schools Out. What a load of hogwash.
• 36:35
  What a logo What a little hogwash.
• 36:39
  There we go. Well I
• 36:41
  I wanted to do a quote in the scene where in the tethering scene where Woody dies.
• 36:48
  Spoiler That was some good writing.
• 36:52
  I liked that the husband and wife were on the mission together and I just
• 36:56
  I could I could call that from a mile away.
• 36:59
  One of them was going to die on the mission.
• 37:01
  Mm-hmm.
• 37:03
  and it was really cool.
• 37:04
  Cool and sweet, but the writing
• 37:08
  of her like breaking orders to go save her husband that
• 37:15
  she can't save, and him like sacrificing himself so that she can live.
• 37:20
  'Cause she won't live if it's up to her.
• 37:23
  ~ and everyone was like,
• 37:28
  You don't have enough fuel
• 37:34
  Put it in reverse, Terry. You got no fu you got no fuel?
• 37:40
  Yeah. No, I yeah.
• 37:41
  And then he just
• 37:43
  turns into a shriveled up raising guy.
• 37:44
  Ugh.
• 37:48
  So I d I did wanna just like try and figure out okay,
• 37:51
  did I understand the ending right?
• 37:53
  Because I it feels kinda like it's one of those stories where it's like
• 37:59
  I kind of feel like Interstellar was kinda like this too.
• 38:01
  Where it was like
• 38:02
  Yeah.
• 38:03
  our future selves helped our current selves solve a problem
• 38:08
  to continue on living and evolving.
• 38:12
  I don't know if you remember that,
• 38:13
  Uhhuh. Well, this Interstellar actually
• 38:14
  but like they were kind of yeah.
• 38:17
  based their whole story off of this movie,
• 38:19
  so
• 38:19
  Yeah, I think so.
• 38:21
  Mm-hmm. ~
• 38:22
  Famously.
• 38:25
  okay. Story wise, I think there's an interesting premise.
• 38:29
  I think the ending kinda it kinda loses it for me.
• 38:33
  Yeah.
• 38:33
  I think I would have enjoyed the story more if it was just a typical just like
• 38:38
  a mission space kind of survival story.
• 38:42
  Mm-hmm.
• 38:43
  But they kinda went like extraterrestrial with it.
• 38:47
  You got to. A Martian.
• 38:51
  Well I guess yeah. ~
• 38:52
  You don't have to, actually. You don't.
• 38:56
  yeah the Martians didn't you know,
• 38:58
  Unless it's true.
• 38:58
  he didn't.
• 39:00
  I I don't know. ~ what would you give the story on this one?
• 39:02
  Do you think there's enough interesting thing ~ elements to pass it?
• 39:06
  I'm right on the fence. I'm on the
• 39:08
  Yeah.
• 39:09
  fence. I think it was just too cloudy.
• 39:11
  Too many different stories they could have fully fleshed out.
• 39:15
  So I maybe there wasn't one perfect ~ maybe not one perfect story.
• 39:21
  I feel like
• 39:25
  Nah, I'm gonna p I'm not passing this.
• 39:27
  I'm sorry. I gotta go with my gut.
• 39:27
  Yeah. I okay.
• 39:29
  Yeah.
• 39:31
  Yeah.
• 39:33
  Alright, well, we've got our acting test worth
• 39:40
  one point. ~ so basically we put this up to Robin Williams vs.
• 39:45
  the Rock. In every Robin Williams movie,
• 39:48
  he's a you it's Robin Williams,
• 39:50
  but he melts himself into each character.
• 39:52
  In every rock movie, he plays the rock and it sinks to the bottom.
• 40:00
  ~ so basically are these people believable?
• 40:03
  Are they good actors? And even if they are good actors,
• 40:08
  are they acting well in this movie?
• 40:12
  first of all I want to say stacked cast.
• 40:14
  ~ we've got Tim Robbins from Shawshank Redemption,
• 40:18
  Connie Nielsen from Gladiator,
• 40:21
  ~ Gary Sinise, already been in a space movie,
• 40:25
  finally gets to go to space. Let's go,
• 40:27
  Lieutenant Dan. ~ one thing about Gary Sinise
• 40:32
  ~ he also plays an astronaut missing out on a mission
• 40:38
  in Apollo 13, which you've already said.
• 40:40
  But this time he gets to go on s go into space as well.
• 40:43
  ~ and then there's a scene where it's constantly turning
• 40:50
  and spinning while they're in space,
• 40:51
  and he was strapped in that chair at his desk while he rotated around
• 40:57
  and around for an entire day of rehearsals.
• 40:59
  ~ man.
• 41:00
  He
• 41:01
  they did that until he asked Brian De Palma to stop.
• 41:04
  ~ man.
• 41:06
  So basically he was just in there.
• 41:08
  ~
• 41:11
  And then we've got Don Cheadle.
• 41:13
  He was excellent in Oceans Eleven,
• 41:16
  I believe. And then he was in the MCU.
• 41:18
  But we love him from Oceans Eleven mostly.
• 41:22
  Yeah. Yeah, in this movie he was
• 41:24
  Because
• 41:24
  in Deep Barney.
• 41:31
  I had to get that one on the old soundboard.
• 41:34
  That's a good one. Bonnie Rebel.
• 41:36
  Trouble.
• 41:39
  that's our one inside quote from that movie,
• 41:41
  I think. ~ but one thing for Don Cheadle's acting is he went method
• 41:47
  for a little bit. He actually slept outside by himself to get a sense
• 41:52
  of the environment in isolation.
• 41:53
  I assume he meant on the set. Unless it's just like in his backyard.
• 41:58
  I don't know.
• 42:00
  But that was pretty cool. He's he had to
• 42:00
  Yeah, I don't know. Yeah.
• 42:02
  act. And he did act. He acted like he didn't know anybody and
• 42:06
  he went crazy.
• 42:06
  Mm-hmm.
• 42:08
  So I feel I feel very good about those two as actors,
• 42:13
  at least. We've got Jerry O'Connell from Stand By Me and Kangaroo Jack.
• 42:19
  Two staples of our childhood.
• 42:22
  ~
• 42:22
  Yeah. Mm-hmm.
• 42:25
  he says that he wanted this role specifically because he studied Brian
• 42:29
  De Palma's films.
• 42:30
  in film school.
• 42:31
  Mm-hmm.
• 42:32
  So And then we've got our boy Kavon Smith.
• 42:37
  Kevin Smith. ~ pre C spot run performance.
• 42:40
  Caven? Yeah, I don't know. Yeah.
• 42:42
  That was a nice
• 42:42
  surprise to see.
• 42:44
  Yeah.
• 42:48
  C Spot Run is pretty iconic for us in the inside quotes world.
• 42:51
  So when w I saw him show up, I was like,
• 42:53
  yeah, wow.
• 42:54
  I don't know
• 42:55
  if I've ever seen him in anything else besides C spot run.
• 42:58
  So Kelsey like, I know him from something and so I Googled him a
• 43:02
  He looks like James Marsden a little bit.
• 43:04
  little a little bit. ~ he he's in a ton of Hallmark movies.
• 43:09
  So I was like, Have you seen any Hallmark movies?
• 43:11
  Mm, that's gotta be it.
• 43:11
  And
• 43:12
  I was like, There's at least a dozen of like that it's like the top results for him.
• 43:16
  So I think that's kind of where he went after,
• 43:19
  I don't know, the early two thousands.
• 43:20
  This movie must have
• 43:21
  ~ those two movies must not have done well for him then.
• 43:25
  And then we've got a small character.
• 43:29
  We've got ~ Peter Outerbridge,
• 43:31
  known from the Cool Runnings movie.
• 43:35
  He's the guy from Switzerland that says,
• 43:37
  Hey Blitza Yes. He's like the Russian guy at the beginning of this
• 43:38
  Is he really? I did not catch that.
• 43:41
  yeah.
• 43:42
  movie. Yeah.
• 43:47
  And another thing I wanna say that Gary Sinese kinda looks like the
• 43:50
  kid from the holdovers, especially in this movie,
• 43:53
  and just kinda the way he talks.
• 43:56
  Okay, okay.
• 43:57
  That's pretty much all I have to say.
• 43:59
  But yeah. I feel good about the the acting.
• 44:04
  really? I I didn't
• 44:05
  I did not like the acting in this
• 44:08
  How was my acting?
• 44:12
  Yeah.
• 44:14
  I'm a better actor than everybody in this movie,
• 44:17
  apparently. I got you good. Okay.
• 44:20
  Okay. Maybe.
• 44:21
  You're just saying that. You're trying backtracking now.
• 44:24
  Okay.
• 44:30
  note from the wife. ~ yeah, she did not believe anybody's performance in this movie.
• 44:36
  I didn't even believe they were floating in zero G.
• 44:39
  Yeah. I and like I I
• 44:40
  And that's the hard
• 44:41
  a a space movie, you have to be able to act like you're in C R G.
• 44:45
  Even if you're not.
• 44:47
  Yeah. I out of out of all the acting,
• 44:52
  I think I liked Tim Robbins the best.
• 44:54
  Maybe I liked his character the best out of any of them.
• 44:57
  You thought he was the worst? Okay.
• 44:57
  Absolutely not. I was ~ no,
• 45:02
  I just didn't think he was great.
• 45:03
  okay.
• 45:05
  He he couldn't switch from like his joking flirting with his wife
• 45:08
  to like serious we're on a mission.
• 45:10
  That wasn't very good. ~
• 45:10
  That's true. Yeah.
• 45:14
  I mean I thought if I had to choose one from this movie,
• 45:17
  I would say Don Cheadle.
• 45:19
  Okay. Yeah. Yeah,
• 45:22
  but none of it was great, I think.
• 45:23
  Yeah.
• 45:23
  Nah, nah nah. I'm not passing this.
• 45:28
  So, yeah, there we go.
• 45:29
  Mm.
• 45:32
  Let's move on to our next test.
• 45:37
  The characters test.
• 45:39
  Okay, okay.
• 45:41
  Yes. Okay, so we've got our lead the hero,
• 45:45
  ~ or protagonist, which is Gary Sinise.
• 45:50
  We're just gonna call them by their acting names,
• 45:53
  'cause Jim
• 45:53
  Jim I I wrote down Jim Eyeliner McConnell.
• 45:56
  He What was wrong with him? His makeup was crazy.
• 45:59
  His eyes were so creepy.
• 46:01
  Eyeliner
• 46:03
  I I actually
• 46:04
  his lips
• 46:05
  almost looked red and his face
• 46:07
  His skin was like purpley pale.
• 46:08
  He almost looked like an alien in this movie.
• 46:09
  When I was doing
• 46:11
  one of the like the Google search results was just like,
• 46:14
  ~ did Gary Sinise wear eyeliner in in this movie?
• 46:20
  And it said yes. Like apparently it was like very heavy and there's
• 46:25
  no official answer, but like fans or people that watched it were guessing
• 46:29
  it was like to show that he was like grieving and tired and like not
• 46:32
  Uh-huh.
• 46:33
  doing well. But he really just like came off
• 46:36
  Like it seemed like he wasn't blinking and his eyes just looked weird
• 46:39
  in like every scene.
• 46:40
  No.
• 46:40
  It was weird.
• 46:42
  He did not he looked like he had some health issues in real life.
• 46:43
  And yeah. Yeah.
• 46:46
  Yeah, it was weird. Mm-hmm
• 46:47
  I didn't I didn't look into that,
• 46:49
  so hopefully that's not true,
• 46:50
  but like I don't know.
• 46:52
  Yeah. ~ you find them compelling,
• 46:57
  memorable, or emotionally engaging?
• 47:02
  I d I didn't.
• 47:02
  His character, not his acting.
• 47:03
  Okay, well th I felt like the character could have been good.
• 47:07
  ~ I felt like his acting, going back to that,
• 47:10
  was just like very understated and
• 47:13
  Mm-hmm.
• 47:14
  like
• 47:16
  They kept looking to him for leadership,
• 47:18
  but I didn't really know why. I don't know.
• 47:20
  Maybe from his past self was in a better state.
• 47:23
  Because he and his wife
• 47:25
  used to be astronauts together.
• 47:27
  okay. Yeah. ~ I mean I get that,
• 47:29
  That's why. And he got kicked off because
• 47:32
  but yeah.
• 47:33
  his wife passed away, I guess?
• 47:36
  Yeah, it seemed it sounded like they got she got sick and then he stepped aside
• 47:41
  to like take care of her and so he had to stop like training for the mission.
• 47:44
  Hope it wasn't the measles.
• 47:48
  Yeah. That I guess that makes sense.
• 47:50
  But in this case I kinda wish that Don Cheadle would have taken that role
• 47:55
  as like the commander.
• 47:58
  And I guess he kinda
• 47:59
  Yeah.
• 47:59
  did, 'cause you know, he kinda went AWOL on the mission,
• 48:02
  but
• 48:04
  Yeah, I I sort of w yeah, I guess what I'm struggling with is I wish he
• 48:08
  he did take more of a command,
• 48:10
  like in the movie. You know? I feel like he
• 48:12
  Yeah.
• 48:12
  just kind of is there.
• 48:15
  Yeah. Well they kinda said that at the beginning,
• 48:17
  They kinda bring him along and he's Yeah.
• 48:19
  like the three of
• 48:20
  them, him, Woody and Don Cheadle.
• 48:22
  ~
• 48:22
  Mm-hmm.
• 48:25
  they kinda said in like the jungle gym at the party,
• 48:27
  they're like, ~ man, imagine us all three of us on the same one.
• 48:31
  Three commanders, that's crazy.
• 48:31
  True, yeah. Yeah. Too much ego.
• 48:33
  We could never do that. Yeah.
• 48:36
  Yeah. I I yeah,
• 48:39
  I we don't have to debate it too much.
• 48:41
  I I think it's an okay it's a good character.
• 48:41
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 48:43
  ~
• 48:44
  I I didn't like the acting necessarily,
• 48:46
  I guess, so we can go with the character.
• 48:46
  Mm-mm. Character's pretty cool.
• 48:48
  Okay.
• 48:50
  we've got the villain and antagonist.
• 48:55
  I don't even think we have a villain.
• 48:55
  I put the face question mark. It's weird.
• 48:56
  Just the face? I'm gonna say the
• 49:01
  ~
• 49:03
  there isn't really a villain in this movie.
• 49:05
  Just Mars.
• 49:07
  Yeah, I guess yeah. Like
• 49:10
  Just it's a disaster movie, so I guess there isn't an antagonist.
• 49:13
  It's an opposing force.
• 49:16
  Nature I don't know. I'll say no.
• 49:22
  Supporting character.
• 49:25
  Dude, I don't know. There's too many characters too.
• 49:28
  N a lot of died, which is fine,
• 49:28
  Kelsey said the same thing, yeah.
• 49:30
  But I
• 49:31
  I guess.
• 49:32
  it it was hard to keep track. I it
• 49:34
  Yeah.
• 49:35
  it's like there was a crew you get introduced to all of them at the beginning,
• 49:38
  only for
• 49:38
  Mm-hmm.
• 49:39
  like most half of them to like die at the start of that first mission.
• 49:42
  Right. Kinda like in twisters.
• 49:42
  And then the other characters
• 49:45
  Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 49:49
  And then yeah, I guess it was just it was kinda hard to like then differentiate
• 49:54
  between all of them.
• 50:01
  I guess we'll say supporting character Don Sheadle.
• 50:04
  I like
• 50:05
  Okay.
• 50:06
  that character a lot. I I think him the fact that he was reading
• 50:09
  Probably the best character.
• 50:11
  best character for sure. ~ him reading Treasure Island with his son while he's
• 50:17
  in space the same night so he can stay connected with his family.
• 50:22
  That was great. ~
• 50:27
  And just him having to survive.
• 50:27
  Just also in the way Yeah,
• 50:29
  also the way he just would express like how ~ he's
• 50:34
  he he told Jim McConnell's character,
• 50:37
  like I I wanted this this command post but like I didn't want I didn't want
• 50:42
  it like this. Like you deser you
• 50:43
  Right.
• 50:44
  were supposed to be the first one and you know,
• 50:47
  so just like that real like friendship underneath
• 50:48
  He's like a great guy.
• 50:50
  underneath like the the work, yeah.
• 50:52
  Mm-hmm.
• 50:54
  Yeah. I I think I think I will pass this just because there's
• 50:59
  so much backstory and a lot of the characters are really well fleshed out,
• 51:04
  even if they didn't survive most of the movie.
• 51:09
  the minor characters Phil
• 51:09
  Yeah. Was Phil the
• 51:14
  scene stealer or or minor character?
• 51:16
  I would say Phil might be the scene stealer.
• 51:18
  He I mean, I yeah, he had the most jokes.
• 51:20
  Don't even know.
• 51:21
  He had the most like, you know,
• 51:23
  comedic relief I feel like. but yeah.
• 51:24
  Yeah. And it was his idea to use
• 51:27
  a lot of the to use the satellite for images.
• 51:32
  So
• 51:34
  Mm. yeah, that's a good good point.
• 51:37
  ~ So yeah, I'll put him as that.
• 51:40
  He was good. The minor character,
• 51:42
  I guess maybe Terry.
• 51:47
  Wasn't that actually her name?
• 51:47
  Yeah, I
• 51:49
  yeah, Terry Fisher.
• 51:50
  That's that's
• 51:51
  that's why I did the put it in reverse,
• 51:53
  Terry, 'cause it was so perfect.
• 51:53
  Yeah. Yeah yeah.
• 51:55
  That's what I thought you put a reverse turkey.
• 52:00
  Back up, Terry. You got fifty percent point of no return.
• 52:03
  I love that her little thing said like that we couldn't read the charts ourselves.
• 52:09
  But it was like fifty percent point of no return.
• 52:14
  Ha ha
• 52:17
  Also, I
• 52:18
  Yeah.
• 52:18
  don't believe that. I believe she they could have just I mean,
• 52:21
  I don't know how space works, but you know,
• 52:24
  if she could use all of her fuel to get to him
• 52:29
  and push themselves that way a little bit,
• 52:30
  then the next person needs less fuel.
• 52:37
  Yeah.
• 52:38
  to get to both of them and then they can get like seventy five percent
• 52:41
  of the way and then the last person can go take them all.
• 52:45
  And then they all run out of fuel together.
• 52:46
  Even if they just did
• 52:48
  like even if they didn't like they could just like do it in spurts,
• 52:51
  you know, like a little bit at a
• 52:52
  Yeah.
• 52:53
  time. And like they would move slowly.
• 52:55
  But
• 52:55
  Yeah.
• 52:55
  also like yeah. I don't know. I guess they just didn't have that kind
• 52:58
  of time 'cause he was like heading down into the atmosphere and was about
• 53:01
  Yeah, but he's going the different way.
• 53:02
  to burn up anyway.
• 53:03
  I don't know. I think it
• 53:04
  was there was a a way to solve that problem,
• 53:07
  I think. If we're talking s sci fi not real science,
• 53:11
  I feel like we could have done that.
• 53:15
  But whatever, he just gave up.
• 53:18
  So to get the pass it needs to be three out of the five boxes.
• 53:22
  So I think we like the lead and the supporting and the scene stealer,
• 53:25
  Yeah. Overall we like the characters better than the acting.
• 53:27
  so Okay.
• 53:30
  Yeah, for sure.
• 53:31
  So this'll be our first pass.
• 53:35
  Alright. Well characters passed.
• 53:42
  One for five. boy.
• 53:43
  One, four,
• 53:44
  five. Alright. This can still be stapleist.
• 53:47
  Maybe.
• 53:49
  Could be, could be.
• 53:50
  Yeah. Alright, let's move on to the sensational set design.
• 53:54
  This is probably my favorite to talk about
• 53:59
  Yeah.
• 53:59
  for this movie. Automatically I'm passing this.
• 54:03
  The set design is incredible.
• 54:06
  ~
• 54:09
  Yeah. The between like the space station and the space shuttle,
• 54:13
  ~ and then just like the design of Mars itself
• 54:18
  Yes. I've got a lot of fun facts.
• 54:19
  and like that greenhouse, yeah.
• 54:22
  I watched the behind the scenes on here,
• 54:24
  and there's a lot of fun facts about that whole section.
• 54:27
  So the filmmakers created the Martian landscape in a massive sand
• 54:33
  pit near Vancouver. and it was one of the biggest sets ever constructed for a movie,
• 54:39
  around two million square feet.
• 54:41
  I would say this passes for set design.
• 54:44
  Sheesh,
• 54:44
  Mm-hmm.
• 54:45
  breaking records.
• 54:47
  ~ the crew used an actual what?
• 54:47
  Well you know what else did? The set
• 54:49
  for Popeye when they built that whole that whole town.
• 54:51
  Ayy, that's
• 54:53
  that's that is true. We
• 54:55
  Yeah.
• 54:56
  never put that one through the IQ test.
• 54:57
  We'll have to do that. ~
• 54:58
  Mm. Mm-hmm.
• 55:00
  Yep, the crew used a real two thousand pound rock to drop behind the astronauts.
• 55:05
  They pulled rocks from like Jordan and all over the world.
• 55:10
  Well, mm-hmm.
• 55:12
  Many of the props from the movie,
• 55:13
  including the big turning wheel set and the spacecraft model,
• 55:18
  are now on display.
• 55:19
  in the line of the Q area at Mission Space Ride at Epcot.
• 55:24
  Okay, that's really cool.
• 55:26
  ~ so that that is really cool.
• 55:28
  I I'll look for that next time.
• 55:30
  I guess we have to go back, huh?
• 55:31
  Hmm.
• 55:32
  Yeah.
• 55:32
  Maybe I'll go with ya. ~ The crew used over fourteen thousand gallons
• 55:39
  of paint to spray the soil Mars red.
• 55:43
  ~ effects Nah,
• 55:43
  Wow. Yeah, people just don't do that anymore,
• 55:47
  you know? Yeah.
• 55:47
  this is a lot of practical and f and digital effects.
• 55:50
  Yeah.
• 55:53
  But ~ lots of practical work.
• 55:56
  the effects supervisor Hoyt Yeetman.
• 56:00
  says this is a hardware film, as he puts it.
• 56:03
  Almost every location in the movie had to be created from scratch because
• 56:07
  it doesn't exist in the real world.
• 56:09
  That dust is blown by ten massive three hundred and fifty horsepower wind machines.
• 56:14
  The whole crew wore gas masks during the shock.
• 56:20
  And they wanted to make sure the shadows didn't look like Earth either,
• 56:25
  so they reflected copper light onto the actors to mimic the orange atmosphere
• 56:31
  of the Martian sky.
• 56:35
  They went so hard.
• 56:37
  Yeah.
• 56:38
  They tried so hard on this to be so good.
• 56:41
  And you know what? I'm passing him for it.
• 56:44
  What else do you have to say?
• 56:48
  I I agree with all that. I I did know when we got to the set design,
• 56:52
  I was like, Okay, this is where the movie is gonna start to shine a little bit.
• 56:55
  So 'cause I I did think that the sets were pretty cool.
• 56:55
  yeah. yeah. Kinda like in Tomorrowland.
• 56:58
  Yeah.
• 56:59
  Yeah. Mm-hmm.
• 57:03
  Alright, well this one passes.
• 57:06
  On to our next test.
• 57:10
  Man, I gotta keep on to our next test,
• 57:15
  the cinematography slash animation test.
• 57:18
  Now where the set design was great,
• 57:21
  was the cinematography as good?
• 57:24
  Was the CGI effects
• 57:28
  ~
• 57:29
  Passable?
• 57:30
  I don't know.
• 57:31
  Well as far as cinematography goes,
• 57:34
  I think it yeah, I think so. ~ I think the shots were really good.
• 57:38
  I I noticed a lot of long takes.
• 57:41
  like the even the beginning scene when they're at like the barbecue,
• 57:46
  like that
• 57:47
  Uh-huh.
• 57:47
  was a long wonder going from like one to the next,
• 57:50
  Mm-hmm.
• 57:51
  like traveling through that. And there was a few sequences there.
• 57:54
  The best shot of the movie is that turning wheel sequence you were talking about
• 57:57
  Absolutely. Yep.
• 57:58
  on the shot on the ship.
• 58:00
  That was a pretty long take there.
• 58:02
  And yeah.
• 58:03
  That reminded
• 58:04
  me of two thousand one A Space Odyssey.
• 58:07
  Yeah, yeah. ~ it was ver it was definitely shot more like static
• 58:13
  Mm-hmm.
• 58:14
  style.
• 58:14
  Like there w there wasn't a lot of like camera movement.
• 58:17
  Like it was very slow and deliberate and long takes.
• 58:20
  Only
• 58:21
  There
• 58:21
  wasn't like rapid cutting, you know?
• 58:23
  There was camera movement only
• 58:25
  Mm-hmm.
• 58:25
  when they were like trying to show off like the up close like zero G.
• 58:30
  Like they kept spinning it. Like the camera was moving.
• 58:32
  y yeah.
• 58:34
  I'm just talking about in general for the movie.
• 58:36
  But yeah, yeah.
• 58:36
  okay, gotcha.
• 58:38
  Yeah. I
• 58:41
  I
• 58:41
  yeah, I did so on that turning wheel sequence.
• 58:43
  I was trying to think how how they did it.
• 58:45
  And at that point when like Phil's character Phil is like he's like walking,
• 58:50
  almost like on a treadmill as it keeps turning.
• 58:51
  Yeah.
• 58:52
  Then he stops at a ladder and starts to climb it.
• 58:54
  And then as soon as he grabs
• 58:55
  I love that part.
• 58:56
  that, they like push in quickly so that you know,
• 58:58
  Mm-hmm.
• 58:58
  like I don't know
• 59:00
  I still don't actually know how they shot it,
• 59:01
  but I just figured they had to like push in before he kept climbing
• 59:05
  or else he wouldn't have been able to do it or something.
• 59:07
  I don't know.
• 59:07
  I will give you back your D V D that you let me borrow and you can watch
• 59:10
  Okay. Okay. Okay.
• 59:11
  the behind the scenes 'cause they go over that.
• 59:13
  It's pretty cool. It is really,
• 59:14
  Yeah.
• 59:15
  really cool.
• 59:16
  Is it is it like ~ Christopher Nolan filming Inception in that hallway and stuff?
• 59:21
  Yeah.
• 59:21
  Pretty much. Let's just say
• 59:26
  even better. As for go keep going.
• 59:29
  So I I Okay, go ahead.
• 59:32
  Are you gonna get to the visual effects next?
• 59:34
  Okay, go for it.
• 59:34
  Yeah.
• 59:36
  As for the animation side of it,
• 59:39
  I'm not sure I'm not sure.
• 59:44
  I mean like the sandworm Mars Debris thing storm
• 59:50
  Mm-hmm.
• 59:51
  didn't look too bad, I wanna say.
• 59:54
  It matched the rest of the movie.
• 59:57
  But then like the spinning body ripping apart was insane.
• 1:00:03
  yes. Well
• 1:00:03
  In a bad way. It looked horrible.
• 1:00:07
  let me say about that. ~ so I watched this with Kelsey and when that happened,
• 1:00:12
  she was like d disturbed by that,
• 1:00:12
  My ch My jaw drop.
• 1:00:14
  obviously. And then she was like,
• 1:00:16
  You you
• 1:00:18
  you gotta get better at like warning me before gross stuff happens in movies.
• 1:00:22
  Which I had forgotten about
• 1:00:25
  Yeah.
• 1:00:26
  that. I remember the scene with Woody when he takes off the helmet.
• 1:00:30
  Mm-hmm.
• 1:00:31
  And
• 1:00:31
  he sacrifices himself. I remember that.
• 1:00:33
  But the the beginning part.
• 1:00:33
  I'm glad it didn't show it happen.
• 1:00:36
  Yeah.
• 1:00:36
  But then it showed the end result.
• 1:00:38
  But
• 1:00:38
  Mm-hmm. Yeah.
• 1:00:40
  man, I hated that scene. That was hard to watch.
• 1:00:46
  I thought it was a standout scene of the movie.
• 1:00:48
  ~ but yeah.
• 1:00:51
  The sandworm or the tether? Yeah,
• 1:00:52
  The tether. Yeah. Yeah. Mm-hmm.
• 1:00:54
  yeah, no, I agree. I was talking about the sandworm.
• 1:00:55
  Yeah.
• 1:00:55
  ~
• 1:00:59
  speaking of the tether, there's a good shot.
• 1:01:01
  Probably my favorite shot of the film was while they were one by one on the tether,
• 1:01:05
  leaving the there was a corkscrew shot,
• 1:01:08
  but it was like intertwining between
• 1:01:10
  Mm-hmm.
• 1:01:11
  each astronaut. It looked really cool.
• 1:01:15
  Yeah.
• 1:01:16
  I think that was my favorite shot.
• 1:01:17
  Besides the big hamster wheel.
• 1:01:17
  Cool. Mm-hmm.
• 1:01:20
  Yeah.
• 1:01:21
  ~ but yeah, it it said also that they took inspiration from Two Thousand One,
• 1:01:27
  A Space Odyssey.
• 1:01:29
  That makes sense, yeah.
• 1:01:30
  To f especially for the long shots and like the models and stuff like that.
• 1:01:33
  ~ there was a jump scare,
• 1:01:37
  it got me pretty good. The shot of Don Cheadle creepily behind him,
• 1:01:40
  Yeah, yeah. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
• 1:01:40
  that was good. That was good.
• 1:01:46
  But yeah, it is it's kind of a shame this movie didn't do well because
• 1:01:49
  it s really seems like they tried so hard.
• 1:01:52
  Like they tried their best.
• 1:01:54
  Yeah. and a lot of the budget I read went to the visual effects.
• 1:02:00
  So
• 1:02:00
  Yeah.
• 1:02:01
  they didn't I mean it was just that time in two thousand.
• 1:02:04
  It was just cutting edge at the time.
• 1:02:06
  So it was kind of hit or miss sometimes.
• 1:02:08
  But I a couple of things I was gonna bring up was so the movie was directed
• 1:02:14
  by Brian De Palma and
• 1:02:15
  Mm-hmm.
• 1:02:16
  this this was not a good experience for him.
• 1:02:19
  That I th
• 1:02:20
  Yeah.
• 1:02:20
  he got hired on late. ~
• 1:02:23
  And so the script
• 1:02:24
  He's the second director, yeah.
• 1:02:26
  yeah, the script was already written and the characters were cast,
• 1:02:29
  so he didn't really have a say in that.
• 1:02:31
  I I think maybe he must have just gotten hired because they needed someone that
• 1:02:35
  could like complete the movie for him.
• 1:02:37
  ~ but it was such a frustrating experience for him that he gave
• 1:02:42
  up like filming movies for studios.
• 1:02:45
  Like he said, I'm never filming for a studio again and he to this
• 1:02:49
  day he's only produced or like directed independent features.
• 1:02:53
  Like he g
• 1:02:53
  Wow.
• 1:02:54
  he he turned his back on the studio system after making this movie.
• 1:02:58
  my goodness.
• 1:03:00
  But do you know who was originally tapped to direct this movie?
• 1:03:04
  Did you read that?
• 1:03:05
  I saw the name but I didn't it didn't register,
• 1:03:07
  like I didn't know who it was.
• 1:03:08
  Gore Verbinsky?
• 1:03:09
  It was Gore Verbinski. Do you know who that is?
• 1:03:12
  Yeah.
• 1:03:12
  No
• 1:03:14
  He directed the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy.
• 1:03:16
  Yeah. So had he
• 1:03:16
  Are you serious? He left to do that.
• 1:03:21
  Well, I I don't know if it was right away 'cause there was some other stuff he did,
• 1:03:25
  but
• 1:03:25
  Yeah.
• 1:03:26
  had he directed this and had such a bad experience like Brian De Palma,
• 1:03:30
  he might never have directed those Pirates movies.
• 1:03:34
  Another Disney attraction turn movie.
• 1:03:35
  Yeah.
• 1:03:36
  So we'll we'll be getting to pirates
• 1:03:38
  Thank you.
• 1:03:39
  pretty soon. So I thought that was kind of a cool cool pr yeah.
• 1:03:42
  I'm grateful for that fun fact.
• 1:03:43
  Wow.
• 1:03:47
  Man, prior to the Caribbean.
• 1:03:48
  He was
• 1:03:49
  fresh off the ~ the completion of Mouse Hunt,
• 1:03:51
  you know, and they really wanted him.
• 1:03:53
  Hey, Mauso was good.
• 1:03:56
  I really want to rewatch that one as an adult.
• 1:03:59
  ~ I think that would be funny.
• 1:04:02
  Yeah. Alright, so are we passing this?
• 1:04:04
  Alright.
• 1:04:04
  I definitely. I think this one gets a point.
• 1:04:07
  Got a point, we got a point.
• 1:04:09
  Our next test is the sound design.
• 1:04:14
  I liked the sound design actually.
• 1:04:16
  I wanna say that. It the sound design thrived where
• 1:04:21
  the music dived. ~
• 1:04:28
  It was just I I thought before I even realized what the wind noises were,
• 1:04:32
  like I didn't realize it was the Martians like
• 1:04:37
  the DNA noise thing. I I just thought,
• 1:04:42
  that Mars wind sounds different than Earth wind.
• 1:04:47
  And fire.
• 1:04:49
  In fire, yeah. so yeah,
• 1:04:53
  I th I thought I thought it was really good.
• 1:04:55
  Like the wind on Mars is very interesting and different and unique.
• 1:04:58
  Mm-hmm.
• 1:05:00
  And then with space movies you're gonna have like spaceship sounds
• 1:05:05
  and like buttons and beep bop boops and
• 1:05:08
  Yeah.
• 1:05:09
  nothing stood out, but it didn't take me out of the movie.
• 1:05:13
  So I don't know, what did
• 1:05:14
  No, I
• 1:05:15
  you think?
• 1:05:16
  I no, I I thought it was great sound design too.
• 1:05:18
  ~
• 1:05:18
  Okay.
• 1:05:19
  for the same reasons. And it wasn't that any any piece of it specifically stood out,
• 1:05:26
  but I could also tell that they were like kinda like how you said they were
• 1:05:29
  ha none of these things exist,
• 1:05:31
  like with
• 1:05:31
  Mm-hmm.
• 1:05:32
  Mart like I could tell that they were creating a lot of sounds and then also Yeah,
• 1:05:38
  that like i I could tell it was good foley for like
• 1:05:41
  Every flip of a switch and all of the computer
• 1:05:43
  Yes.
• 1:05:44
  stuff on the ships and unlocking things and just I could tell it wasn't just like
• 1:05:50
  stock sound effects. Like it seemed like they did that for the movie.
• 1:05:54
  Yeah.
• 1:05:54
  Right. Yeah. So
• 1:05:57
  Yeah, I thought it was good. And I I would
• 1:06:00
  All right.
• 1:06:00
  agree, it it it ~ it filled the gaps where the music was kinda lacking.
• 1:06:05
  Yeah. For sure. Let's
• 1:06:06
  Yeah.
• 1:06:08
  we'll definitely pass that one.
• 1:06:10
  Okay. So our next test is the cool credits test.
• 1:06:16
  Jonathan, did this movie have good credits?
• 1:06:19
  I wanna say absolutely not.
• 1:06:22
  Nothing. Yeah.
• 1:06:24
  If I had to choose, I would say definitely not.
• 1:06:26
  Yeah. It was there there was nothing at the start really,
• 1:06:30
  just text overlay as the opening scene.
• 1:06:32
  Just fading in and out.
• 1:06:34
  The ending was a they see Jim fly off on the spaceship with the aliens
• 1:06:39
  Mm-hmm. And it sort of freeze frames the galaxy and then that's when
• 1:06:39
  and then you Yeah.
• 1:06:42
  the words come up.
• 1:06:43
  Yeah. So it's just like a freeze frame.
• 1:06:48
  And not even an iconic one like,
• 1:06:48
  But when like Star Wars
• 1:06:49
  you know, Harry Potter
• 1:06:51
  flying off with the firebolt and his face fills up the whole screen.
• 1:06:56
  Yes, yes, yes, yes.
• 1:06:58
  I I thought you were going Star Wars where like the entering like
• 1:07:02
  the opening credits intro the words literally float in the screen like credits
• 1:07:06
  yeah. Yeah, no.
• 1:07:07
  would.
• 1:07:08
  Yeah. No, I I I would say no to the cool credits.
• 1:07:15
  All right. So our last test is the
• 1:07:19
  Rewatchable review factor. I don't know if this is a rewatchable movie.
• 1:07:24
  I might watch it more than w maybe once.
• 1:07:26
  But I'm not I'm not enjoying this movie that much.
• 1:07:30
  Hate to say it.
• 1:07:32
  Yeah, I
• 1:07:32
  I I didn't really enjoy it much more the second time I watched it after watching
• 1:07:37
  it a couple years ago. I remember it being kind
• 1:07:39
  Mm-hmm.
• 1:07:39
  of a mixed bag of like, yeah, there was some cool shots in it.
• 1:07:42
  ~ but like I I found the story to be kind of lackluster.
• 1:07:47
  I didn't really like the acting either.
• 1:07:50
  And
• 1:07:50
  Mm-hmm.
• 1:07:51
  it's not gonna be like a soundtrack I go to,
• 1:07:52
  so that's kinda and and at the end of the day,
• 1:07:54
  It's not. It's pretty important.
• 1:07:56
  I didn't write down a single quote,
• 1:07:57
  you know?
• 1:07:58
  That's embarrassing if you didn't write one quote.
• 1:08:00
  I didn't I didn't even bother.
• 1:08:01
  Yeah. Didn't even bother.
• 1:08:02
  There was a couple
• 1:08:04
  All right.
• 1:08:05
  in there, but I just knew it wasn't gonna pass.
• 1:08:08
  Hmm. Yeah.
• 1:08:10
  Yeah, I I really don't plan on rewatching this one.
• 1:08:14
  We're failing it. Bang Alright.
• 1:08:18
  Well, that's our first part of the test.
• 1:08:21
  let's count up, shall we?
• 1:08:23
  Yeah, where are we at so far?
• 1:08:24
  We got honestly scored a little bit higher than I thought.
• 1:08:27
  I think
• 1:08:32
  One, two, three, four points. Four isn't too bad.
• 1:08:34
  Points, okay. Okay.
• 1:08:36
  Four out of ten.
• 1:08:37
  There's still space to get stapleist.
• 1:08:40
  Some bonus points.
• 1:08:40
  I don't I think
• 1:08:41
  s or stapleist is out of the question.
• 1:08:44
  So there's enough to get staple.
• 1:08:44
  Yeah. Mm-hmm.
• 1:08:46
  ~
• 1:08:47
  let's talk DVD well let's blah blah.
• 1:08:51
  ~ So yeah,
• 1:08:55
  four out of ten, objectively, that's not very good.
• 1:08:58
  But let's see.
• 1:08:59
  Yeah.
• 1:09:01
  We we have a ~ solid bonus round.
• 1:09:06
  To help, you know, bump that score up for us if we like.
• 1:09:09
  So there's five more chances to get staple or stapleist.
• 1:09:13
  So number one, the test is the DVD menu test.
• 1:09:16
  I personally watch this on DVD.
• 1:09:19
  Your copy, actually.
• 1:09:20
  Yeah. Mm-hmm.
• 1:09:21
  I just want to say, this DVD sucks.
• 1:09:24
  This menu this DVD menu like I expect the DVD menu to be good if
• 1:09:30
  I'm gonna actually take the time and put the DVD in.
• 1:09:33
  It should have been two
• 1:09:34
  two thousand was like cutting edge DVDs,
• 1:09:36
  Peak Peak DVD.
• 1:09:37
  you know? Like
• 1:09:38
  everyone's trying to go out with this new technology.
• 1:09:41
  Mm hmm.
• 1:09:41
  Yeah, it was just so boring. I don't know.
• 1:09:45
  Okay.
• 1:09:45
  And I'm not gonna even put a screenshot on because if you're gonna watch this movie,
• 1:09:49
  you're gonna have to get the DVD too.
• 1:09:50
  So you'll see it for
• 1:09:50
  You'll see it for yourself.
• 1:09:52
  yourself. So I'm
• 1:09:54
  Okay.
• 1:09:55
  just gonna pa I'm not gonna pass that one.
• 1:09:56
  Then we've got the theme part test.
• 1:10:00
  Obviously. Yeah, it was based off of that.
• 1:10:04
  We've been passing all of them for this.
• 1:10:05
  Yeah, automatic point. ~
• 1:10:05
  Automatic point.
• 1:10:08
  yeah, any anything space themed or an anything it could have been Mars themed,
• 1:10:13
  that there's there's something cool there.
• 1:10:14
  Mm-hmm.
• 1:10:15
  Even if it wasn't based on a on a Run.
• 1:10:18
  Yeah, yeah.
• 1:10:18
  there is a hidden Mickey, speaking of theme parks,
• 1:10:21
  but it's it's sort of like in the movie.
• 1:10:23
  momentarily as you see the Mars recovery vehicle approach the planet,
• 1:10:28
  Mars itself, the rotating circular hub of the spaceship,
• 1:10:33
  and the round satellite dish sitting on its spine line up perfectly
• 1:10:38
  to form the friendly and familiar Mickey Mouse logo.
• 1:10:41
  Wow.
• 1:10:42
  I like it when they put hidden Mickeys in these sh in these movies.
• 1:10:43
  Yeah. That's cool.
• 1:10:44
  That's pretty cool.
• 1:10:46
  ~ but yeah, we we're we're gonna pass that.
• 1:10:49
  Easy.
• 1:10:49
  Okay, bonus point.
• 1:10:51
  Alright, bonus point. Then we've got fantastic foods and where to find them.
• 1:11:00
  I'm passing this.
• 1:11:03
  You're gonna tell me.
• 1:11:03
  I thought you might.
• 1:11:05
  You're gonna tell me. First of all,
• 1:11:08
  if you have a space movie, I require you to have a food
• 1:11:13
  or drink item in your space module.
• 1:11:16
  Because floating.
• 1:11:17
  Floating in zero G. Yeah.
• 1:11:19
  And on top of that, if it's a Dr.
• 1:11:22
  Pepper Capri Sun, absolutely!
• 1:11:24
  I wrote the exac I
• 1:11:25
  wrote the exact same thing, Capri Sun,
• 1:11:27
  Doctor Pepper.
• 1:11:27
  Bro, that looked awesome.
• 1:11:31
  I would I might even prefer a Dr.
• 1:11:33
  Pepper Capri Sun. It might not be as fizzy.
• 1:11:35
  I wonder how that works. ~ and
• 1:11:37
  Yeah.
• 1:11:38
  I'm not the only one that wondered how that works because
• 1:11:43
  in 1985 astronauts really did drink soda in space as part of an experiment.
• 1:11:48
  So that's pretty cool. I don't know if there's any other food in this besides like
• 1:11:55
  plants.
• 1:11:56
  Well, there's ~
• 1:11:57
  They were going to eat.
• 1:11:58
  there is a DNA sequence made out of and Ms.
• 1:12:03
  Yeah.
• 1:12:03
  That's right, that's right,
• 1:12:04
  that's right. Okay. And he ate Everybody loves M's.
• 1:12:07
  And he like pulls one out of the sequence and eats it.
• 1:12:09
  For sure.
• 1:12:09
  So
• 1:12:11
  I I thought like you've got food and drink
• 1:12:14
  Food and drink.
• 1:12:15
  product placement too in space.
• 1:12:16
  Gotta love it.
• 1:12:17
  That was a great product placement.
• 1:12:19
  I wonder
• 1:12:21
  if they came out with Dr. Pepper Capri Suns.
• 1:12:23
  Probably not. Probably not.
• 1:12:26
  But yeah,
• 1:12:27
  I was gonna give this one a point 'cause I I thought that was kinda cool.
• 1:12:30
  Yeah, for sure, for sure. Alright.
• 1:12:32
  So then we've got our iconic props test.
• 1:12:36
  Hmm. What kind of prop is in this?
• 1:12:41
  The only thing I wrote down was the neck Flash Gordon necklace.
• 1:12:50
  Yeah, I I wrote that one down too,
• 1:12:52
  but I don't know if that's good enough to like give it the point.
• 1:12:54
  It's not it's not good enough.
• 1:12:55
  It's it's
• 1:12:56
  That's not good enough.
• 1:12:58
  it's definitely not even anything I remembered from the first time
• 1:13:02
  I watched the movie. That it was like a special thing that it gives at the end.
• 1:13:05
  Yeah.
• 1:13:06
  Yeah. And like my
• 1:13:09
  my thing is my way my I guess litmus test to see if this passes is can I
• 1:13:14
  see this in the Smithsonian and know what it's from without reading the plaque?
• 1:13:19
  And I'm not I don't even know what it looks like now.
• 1:13:21
  Yeah, I don't I don't think so.
• 1:13:25
  So we're gonna fail that one.
• 1:13:26
  Yeah, it was just like
• 1:13:27
  a you know.
• 1:13:30
  Just was not very good. Okay, so then we've got the what are we on?
• 1:13:35
  Our last one, right?
• 1:13:38
  Last one, yeah.
• 1:13:39
  Costumes test, costume design.
• 1:13:42
  This one was a little bit hard to believe for me.
• 1:13:45
  In the way
• 1:13:46
  Mm. Mm-hmm.
• 1:13:46
  that it costs so much money for these spacesuits.
• 1:13:50
  And did you know that a real NASA spacesuit costs like upwards of
• 1:13:55
  ten to twelve million dollars?
• 1:13:56
  I I did read that and that surprised me.
• 1:14:01
  That surprised me too, but I guess it
• 1:14:02
  Yeah.
• 1:14:02
  makes sense 'cause they have to be like pressure their own little spaceships,
• 1:14:06
  basically.
• 1:14:07
  Yeah. That's crazy.
• 1:14:09
  ~ each one of these spacesuits costs around a hundred thousand dollars.
• 1:14:14
  I don't know if that's a true fact,
• 1:14:15
  because it I don't believe it.
• 1:14:17
  ~ like as a costume?
• 1:14:18
  It the movie. Yeah.
• 1:14:21
  Hm.
• 1:14:23
  I don't believe that. It
• 1:14:24
  I don't know.
• 1:14:24
  was hard. They had e every actor had their own crew member ~ to
• 1:14:28
  get themselves into space suits.
• 1:14:30
  ~
• 1:14:31
  Yeah.
• 1:14:31
  it weighed sixty two pounds each and it took them forty five minutes
• 1:14:35
  to get inside each suit.
• 1:14:37
  Wow.
• 1:14:38
  And they were like little film lights inside all the actors' helmets
• 1:14:41
  to illuminate their
• 1:14:42
  I mean
• 1:14:42
  faces during the shots.
• 1:14:44
  that that makes sense actually,
• 1:14:45
  yeah. I wouldn't have thought about that,
• 1:14:46
  Yeah. But why are you dropping why are you dropping a hundred thousand dollars
• 1:14:47
  but yeah, why why is their face so well lit?
• 1:14:49
  Yeah.
• 1:14:51
  on that? I could do that. I can go to Michael's right now and make
• 1:14:52
  Yeah.
• 1:14:54
  a suit for at least five thousand dollars.
• 1:14:58
  Probably get away with something passable.
• 1:14:59
  Yeah. I know. That's crazy to
• 1:15:00
  Maybe not with a helmet, but man.
• 1:15:03
  to think even like yeah, if I had five thousand dollars could not could
• 1:15:07
  I not come up with something? Like
• 1:15:09
  Yeah. I also heard a fun fact in the behind the scenes he didn't say who,
• 1:15:15
  but he said that they had to like stop filming every once in a while because
• 1:15:20
  it was a challenge because one of had a tobacco habit and he had to get
• 1:15:24
  out of the suit so that he can take a smoke break.
• 1:15:28
  Hmm.
• 1:15:28
  And I wonder
• 1:15:31
  who do you think it would have been?
• 1:15:32
  I think Gary Sinise looks like he smokes.
• 1:15:36
  Yeah, I would s well, I don't know.
• 1:15:39
  Don Sheetle
• 1:15:39
  could also smoke.
• 1:15:42
  I to be honest, all of them look like they probably smoked at some point.
• 1:15:46
  That's that's probably true.
• 1:15:48
  I just wanna know who it was.
• 1:15:51
  Yeah. Interesting.
• 1:15:53
  They weren't willing to they weren't willing to tell on so but I thought that
• 1:15:57
  was interesting. ~ but yeah, when it comes to costumes,
• 1:16:02
  like I'm not a as impressed as the country bears.
• 1:16:05
  Duh.
• 1:16:06
  Yeah. ~ I I I was gonna say that the astronaut costumes are cool,
• 1:16:11
  but I'm less impressed that they spent a hundred thousand dollars making So
• 1:16:13
  That's what that's what kills me.
• 1:16:15
  Yeah.
• 1:16:17
  I feel like I don't wanna give it a point.
• 1:16:19
  My favorite part of the the helmet was that the glass was kinda like pointed.
• 1:16:23
  Almost like a visor.
• 1:16:27
  Yeah, and if any of these were like at the Smithsonian,
• 1:16:29
  I would be like disappointed it wasn't something from like the Martian
• 1:16:33
  or like Apollo thirteen or just an
• 1:16:33
  True. True.
• 1:16:35
  actual spacesuit. So I don't know.
• 1:16:37
  In actual spacesuit. They have that.
• 1:16:39
  They need a Smithsonian needs
• 1:16:42
  to have an American movie museum.
• 1:16:44
  I feel like that's a part of our
• 1:16:49
  Hmm. Yeah.
• 1:16:49
  History enough, you know.
• 1:16:51
  That should be the next one. Okay.
• 1:16:53
  Well, I don't I don't think we're gonna pass this.
• 1:16:55
  How about you?
• 1:16:56
  No, I'm good to skip.
• 1:16:59
  Hundred
• 1:16:59
  thousand dollars. Are you kidding me?
• 1:17:00
  There's gotta be some fraud in there.
• 1:17:02
  Failed. Okay,
• 1:17:05
  well, let's count them all up.
• 1:17:09
  We got zero, one, zero,
• 1:17:13
  one, hmm. Jonathan,
• 1:17:16
  this movie has a total of one,
• 1:17:20
  two, three, four, five, and six points.
• 1:17:24
  It got six.
• 1:17:25
  It got six? Okay.
• 1:17:28
  But that is not enough to become a staple.
• 1:17:31
  So unfortunately,
• 1:17:31
  Mm.
• 1:17:32
  Mission to Mars 2000 is officially a quack.
• 1:17:37
  IQ certified quack.
• 1:17:40
  Hate to say it.
• 1:17:41
  Mom was right.
• 1:17:43
  Perfect. She knew she knew not to show you quacks growing up.
• 1:17:50
  Man, that that sucks. But yeah.
• 1:17:55
  We did it and we're that's why we're here.
• 1:17:57
  We're just here to rate our movies.
• 1:17:59
  Yeah. You know, one one thing that we didn't ~ touch
• 1:18:04
  on was how how does this compare as far as the ~ to the ride itself?
• 1:18:10
  Like is it a good adaptation of the ride?
• 1:18:13
  We'll never know. I guess we'll never know.
• 1:18:13
  We won't know 'cause I mean
• 1:18:15
  it's hard to know just watching a video of it on YouTube.
• 1:18:18
  I I guess the it's kinda similar as it it is like a mission to Mars
• 1:18:23
  and something goes wrong. It's kind of like this meteor storm.
• 1:18:27
  that like causes ship damage and then they have to get back.
• 1:18:30
  But this yeah,
• 1:18:30
  Like that little micrometeor that came through the ship and shot his hand.
• 1:18:34
  like through his hand?
• 1:18:35
  Yeah.
• 1:18:37
  But other than that, like they really like took it one step further with like,
• 1:18:42
  well what is this meteor storm on Mars?
• 1:18:45
  Is it some being that is a higher
• 1:18:48
  Right.
• 1:18:49
  evolved version of us?
• 1:18:52
  Not a big fan of that. Yeah.
• 1:18:54
  Yeah.
• 1:18:55
  ~ one other thing,
• 1:18:58
  I didn't know where to put this,
• 1:18:59
  so I just put it towards the end.
• 1:19:01
  If you watch the D V D, there is one singular trailer
• 1:19:05
  ~ before the movie,
• 1:19:09
  and that movie is a trailer of a movie that I've never seen or even heard of.
• 1:19:14
  And it just blew my mind that
• 1:19:16
  it's a real movie. I thought it was fake.
• 1:19:19
  ~
• 1:19:19
  What is it?
• 1:19:20
  it is a Robin Williams movie.
• 1:19:24
  let's see wet see, let's see. It is like he's literally
• 1:19:30
  a robot that the dude from Jurassic Park and his family and it's like Bicentennial
• 1:19:34
  bicentennial man. Yeah.
• 1:19:36
  Man, but it's like
• 1:19:37
  Mm-hmm.
• 1:19:39
  it's Robin Williams as the robot,
• 1:19:41
  and the robot looks like Robin Williams.
• 1:19:41
  Yeah. Mm-hmm.
• 1:19:43
  And
• 1:19:44
  like they put like skin on him to look like he is Robin Williams.
• 1:19:48
  It's
• 1:19:48
  Yeah.
• 1:19:49
  a super weird it's like Mrs. Doubtfire,
• 1:19:51
  but
• 1:19:53
  We
• 1:19:54
  Bionic.
• 1:19:55
  we n we should cover that one because actually
• 1:19:57
  We should?
• 1:19:57
  that is one that Kelsey grew up watching,
• 1:20:00
  actually. I watched it a
• 1:20:00
  Okay. Okay.
• 1:20:01
  few years ago 'cause I was curious about it too.
• 1:20:04
  it's a Chris it's a Chris Columbus movie.
• 1:20:04
  It looked crazy. Really?
• 1:20:07
  So
• 1:20:08
  that's that's why I wanted to watch it partially too,
• 1:20:11
  'cause I I'm a big fan of his movies,
• 1:20:12
  It I was sold by the trailer. It looked great.
• 1:20:12
  so yeah.
• 1:20:15
  Yeah, we we should cover that one.
• 1:20:17
  That one would be fun. It was interesting.
• 1:20:19
  ~
• 1:20:20
  I was just like blown away. I was like,
• 1:20:22
  This is a real
• 1:20:22
  movie? ~
• 1:20:23
  Ha ha.
• 1:20:24
  we got a gift. That is such a great I I d I didn't know I had
• 1:20:29
  any other Robin Williams movies to watch.
• 1:20:31
  Yeah.
• 1:20:35
  Okay.
• 1:20:36
  any other like final notes or things you need to to bring up here at the end?
• 1:20:41
  The the Yeah.
• 1:20:41
  I got nothing. I like the movie,
• 1:20:43
  I'm probably not gonna watch it much.
• 1:20:45
  But you know, whatever.
• 1:20:47
  Yeah, I I I was mixed on it. It was like it had some good good moments to it.
• 1:20:52
  And I liked the the premise and stuff,
• 1:20:54
  but it yeah, it just wasn't it wasn't that good.
• 1:20:57
  Yeah. That was not great.
• 1:20:57
  ~
• 1:20:59
  I I did want to at least comment on the movie does take place in
• 1:21:03
  the year twenty twenty.
• 1:21:05
  ~ yeah, that's right.
• 1:21:06
  And
• 1:21:07
  and we don't even have to go into the whole like that's not what twenty twenty
• 1:21:10
  looked like, but I wanted to call out the the car that he drives up.
• 1:21:14
  Electric car, yeah.
• 1:21:14
  It was supposed
• 1:21:15
  to be like a futuristic car. It was like an Isuzu ~
• 1:21:17
  Ha ha ha ha.
• 1:21:20
  like SUV convertible type thing.
• 1:21:23
  Yeah.
• 1:21:24
  I got a picture of it here, let me pull it up 'cause I I got that set up.
• 1:21:27
  But yeah, it was just like that's what they thought we were gonna be driving
• 1:21:34
  in the future.
• 1:21:36
  Pretty cool. I mean we do have electric cars.
• 1:21:37
  And it was actually a car that was sold from from
• 1:21:41
  ninety seven to two thousand one.
• 1:21:43
  Yeah. But
• 1:21:45
  But ~
• 1:21:45
  not in America, surely.
• 1:21:47
  yeah, the afterwards they they stopped making it.
• 1:21:49
  I don't even
• 1:21:50
  ~
• 1:21:50
  know if that car brand is around,
• 1:21:52
  is Suzu. I don't know. But
• 1:21:52
  Izuzu? I don't
• 1:21:55
  know.
• 1:21:55
  Wow, yeah. Well they got it they got the Tesla thing right,
• 1:21:58
  kind of. We got SUVs.
• 1:22:00
  Him.
• 1:22:02
  It is always cool to like see what people's vision of the future is gonna be.
• 1:22:05
  This movie really didn't even focus on that 'cause they they did have this like this
• 1:22:10
  new car and then like Woody's character was like,
• 1:22:12
  I'm all about combustible engines,
• 1:22:15
  Internal combustion.
• 1:22:15
  you know, and he's got
• 1:22:16
  yeah, he's got like an old Corvette or something,
• 1:22:18
  so
• 1:22:19
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:22:21
  We are going to Mars, but probably not at the end of this decade.
• 1:22:25
  We're still going to the moon again.
• 1:22:27
  that seems to be our I think before we get people on Mars they need to
• 1:22:31
  do the moon base.
• 1:22:32
  And that's gonna be our next 20,
• 1:22:33
  30 years, probably. So maybe by the end of our lifetime we'll see a man on Mars.
• 1:22:39
  I don't know. Until then, I'll be watching a movie about Mars and astronauts,
• 1:22:46
  and it won't be this one. It'll be the Martian.
• 1:22:50
  Another day, another quack. Well everyone,
• 1:22:52
  our only question left is would you go to Mars if you had the chance?
• 1:22:55
  I feel like for me, my answer is
• 1:23:02
  Mm.
