• 0:41
  middle of the office, that's completely on you, champ.
• 0:45
  I don't we we anything can go. We actually something stupid.
• 0:48
  So I just want to put that out there to be upfront and honest.
• 0:51
  Yeah, I definitely don't like this content for kids.
• 0:54
  And if you listen to me at work and get in trouble, it's on you.
• 0:57
  All right. Now here comes the serious part
• 0:58
  today. This this episode's going to
• 1:00
  cover the movie weapons from 2025.
• 1:02
  That means we're going to be talking about the following
• 1:03
  things. This this is going to be related
• 1:05
  to what we see in the movie and what we talked about on the
• 1:08
  podcast. So if these things upset you or
• 1:10
  trigger you, be be worried. Intense and graphic violence,
• 1:14
  disturbing imagery, themes of child abduction and
• 1:16
  manipulation, substance abuse and the supernatural horror that
• 1:19
  might leave you linger long after the credits.
• 1:22
  If any of this hits too close to home, consider this your heads
• 1:24
  up. Still with us?
• 1:26
  Great, because tonight we're diving into the one of the most
• 1:28
  chilling and debate horror films of 2025, Zach Krager's weapons.
• 1:33
  Let's go. All right, so when we first
• 1:35
  started, this is going to be a spoiler free segment.
• 1:39
  So anything from here on out that we're going to talk about,
• 1:42
  stay to the topic of what we're saying, answer the questions
• 1:45
  accordingly, and we will we will get into a later part of the
• 1:50
  episode where we will talk about spoilers if things were.
• 1:52
  Into feels like a job interview. You're making me know.
• 1:57
  Right. All of a sudden.
• 1:59
  I feel like Tom, like, can I keep a secret?
• 2:02
  I'm trying to tighten things up. If people if you people at home
• 2:05
  hate this, I'm sorry. I'm just I'm trying my.
• 2:07
  Best. That was going to be my note
• 2:08
  when I came here, that was going to be my note.
• 2:10
  I feel like he got off top. Yeah, so after Barbarian rocked
• 2:15
  audiences in 2022, I all eyes run Zach Kreger and he could he
• 2:20
  do it again? In January 2023, he re released
• 2:24
  Sorry Unleashed Weapons, not film, but the script and
• 2:28
  Hollywood lost its mind. A full on bidding war erupted.
• 2:31
  New Line Cinema and Warner Brothers dropped roughly $38
• 2:34
  million for the rights, giving Craig your full creative control
• 2:37
  and which is rare for hard directors.
• 2:40
  And they gave him final cut privileges, which is fucking
• 2:43
  crazy. That's insane.
• 2:45
  Yeah. Did you see Barbarian?
• 2:48
  Yes. Yes.
• 2:49
  So if I can be straight up, it's not worth it really not if you
• 2:56
  here's here's the thing, here we are.
• 2:58
  If you watch Weapons and that's your first introduction to his
• 3:01
  horror film like era, you're not going to like Barbarian.
• 3:06
  Really, it's a shit movie. Sorry.
• 3:09
  I love Zach, but like it was just is poorly written.
• 3:13
  The idea is really cool. Keep it spoiler free, right?
• 3:18
  Yeah, I'm sorry. I forget that it's here.
• 3:20
  Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, not bad, not bad.
• 3:23
  So like to keep it like spoiler free.
• 3:25
  It's basically a movie about an Airbnb, OK, that gets quadruple
• 3:32
  booked in this like, and no one lives in this town, but the
• 3:37
  Airbnb is there and no one knows that because they're outsiders,
• 3:40
  etcetera. And there's a being that lives
• 3:43
  with with underneath the the B&B and yeah, people die.
• 3:51
  It's on the list to watch I'm. Definitely going to watch.
• 3:54
  It's the it's just the premise of why the character kills is
• 3:58
  kind of weird. It's it's definitely a good
• 4:00
  scary movie, but it's just the the plot doesn't make sense as
• 4:03
  far as like weapons has like a great plot and you can follow it
• 4:07
  all the way through and there's like it makes you think and then
• 4:10
  it never goes. And that's for no reason, you
• 4:13
  know what I mean? So.
• 4:15
  We'll get into that. He wrote it while grieving the
• 4:18
  loss of a close friend, channeling pain into horror.
• 4:20
  That grief became the movie's pulse.
• 4:22
  How far people go when they can't accept death.
• 4:27
  So this is kind of from The Hollywood Reporter.
• 4:29
  Weapons was trying to make sense of grief to channel into
• 4:32
  something terrifying but cathartic.
• 4:35
  So knowing this movie came now from Chick Kroger's personal
• 4:38
  loss, do you think that emotes and bleeds on screen and or
• 4:42
  would most viewers miss miss that layer entirely say that.
• 4:48
  One more time. Do you think that the emotion
• 4:52
  leads on screen from knowing that he had personal loss now?
• 4:55
  Yes. There we go, There we go.
• 5:02
  I don't know. I didn't.
• 5:03
  Know that for for me, For me, yeah.
• 5:05
  That makes sense now, because the wise kid, you know, was
• 5:10
  Zack's like, sketch comedy group that formed, Yeah.
• 5:15
  Wise kid, you know, formed after 911.
• 5:18
  They they all met on 9/11. Just it's like the MCR story is
• 5:21
  like, oh, what's going on? And they go and, you know,
• 5:24
  fucking they all meet each other.
• 5:26
  But yeah, Zach was a part of that comedy troupe.
• 5:29
  Trevor Moore had passed away and they never like revealed exactly
• 5:34
  why. But at the time he was trying to
• 5:37
  build a what is what's it called moonshine like rig and they say
• 5:42
  that he fell off his deck while drinking the moonshine.
• 5:45
  Some people say that. Some people say that the
• 5:47
  moonshine thing exploded. No one really knows the.
• 5:49
  Explosion. Yeah, you're going.
• 5:51
  To die, die from the explosion. Yeah, people.
• 5:54
  People don't believe the. True.
• 5:57
  Statement that has come out. But yeah, so I guess now knowing
• 6:01
  that what he was dealing with, that kind of makes sense.
• 6:03
  Like now I can look back at the film and be like, oh, this is
• 6:06
  more of a metaphorical. He's holding on to that loss and
• 6:11
  he is XYZ character, you know? The only persons are the only
• 6:16
  person that you really feel like really, really channels that
• 6:20
  grief is the dad. You know what I mean?
• 6:22
  Like, you have that generic, like, oh, the entire town's
• 6:25
  upset deal. But you don't really feel the
• 6:27
  impact of that until you meet Josh Brolin.
• 6:30
  Is Brolin Josh Brolin's character.
• 6:31
  Yeah. Place they knows.
• 6:32
  Yeah. Like, he channels the grief
• 6:34
  really, really well. And then she's more in grief of
• 6:37
  just like, well, well. No, Every single person is in
• 6:42
  grief in some way, shape or form.
• 6:44
  Now that you're like, I'm sitting there thinking about it
• 6:46
  like. Literally.
• 6:47
  All of. Them are because.
• 6:48
  Also, that also now questions me to believe that like the whole
• 6:52
  thing is a metaphor for like you using your grief as like each
• 6:56
  one is a weapon. You're using it against yourself
• 6:59
  like you're. Holding.
• 7:00
  On to that. Yeah.
• 7:00
  Like how is it a spoiler to say how it's numbered as it goes on?
• 7:05
  Like it's chaptered. Off.
• 7:07
  Chaptered off. Yeah, I was watching.
• 7:08
  I was like, this is very Pulp Fiction.
• 7:10
  Yeah, it's. Really cool.
• 7:11
  Quentin Tarantino's fucking horror movie.
• 7:14
  Without going into too much detail, it's chaptered off and
• 7:17
  and, but it all relays the same story, which is really fucking
• 7:21
  amazing. That's what I I guess I love the
• 7:23
  most. About that.
• 7:24
  So a kind of, well, we're going to get into casting characters
• 7:26
  here right now, but when Billy says it's kind of chaptered off,
• 7:30
  it'll be like chapter one, this character, and then you'll kind
• 7:33
  of see a character and then they meet another character and then
• 7:37
  you're like, well, who the fuck's this character?
• 7:39
  And then it's like chapter 2, this character, you're like, oh,
• 7:42
  OK. And then it tells their story up
• 7:44
  until the point where they they had that interaction with the
• 7:47
  previous. Almost like all crossover, it's.
• 7:49
  Kind of. We crash.
• 7:50
  And then halfway, halfway through, you're just like, shit,
• 7:54
  wait, we're gonna learn about this person or this thing soon.
• 7:58
  And then you're like, fuck. And you're like, Oh my God,
• 8:01
  yeah, yeah, that's fucking it's, it's wild to me now.
• 8:06
  And even like saying that, it reminded me of certain scenes
• 8:10
  where I was like, oh shit, I totally forgot about that.
• 8:12
  And then fucking. Yeah, I was gonna say actually
• 8:14
  saying that though, as someone who's like not really big on
• 8:17
  horror, I did kind of like that though, that like it would get
• 8:21
  to something really, really intense and then it would skip
• 8:24
  to another scene and you're like, OK, I've forgotten about
• 8:26
  that for a minute. And I have time to relate my
• 8:28
  heartbeat to just calm down a minute.
• 8:30
  And then like, yeah, you're like 20 minutes later, you've
• 8:32
  completely forgotten about it. And then it just comes.
• 8:35
  Brushing back to you and. You're like Oh my God I forgot
• 8:37
  about the thing. Rushing back with more detail,
• 8:39
  yeah, yeah, with more setup, more.
• 8:40
  Traumatic. More traumatic.
• 8:42
  Yeah, IA lot of so spoiler alert, not every movie is
• 8:45
  structured as well. Not every horror movies, don't
• 8:48
  be spoiled at that. Weapons that are.
• 8:51
  Early and. Early listening, well aware I've
• 8:53
  watched enough so far to. What I was?
• 8:55
  Is it called? To to that point as well, like
• 9:00
  to continue with like how good the film is.
• 9:03
  I think in an era now where everything is like gore porn,
• 9:07
  like everything is like, oh, it's so bloody, it's so
• 9:10
  gruesome. This is a good film of just
• 9:12
  being like on the edge because it really doesn't get bad until
• 9:18
  the end. Like towards really close to the
• 9:20
  end they could. Have went way harder and didn't.
• 9:24
  I don't think I know what you mean.
• 9:25
  I don't say to the story. Though like I I'm I'm with
• 9:28
  Billy, like the the fear factor wasn't coming from.
• 9:32
  Oh, it's so much fucking. Blood.
• 9:33
  Oh my gosh, yeah, we'll. Definitely dive more into that
• 9:36
  in the spoiler section, but let's get into casting
• 9:38
  characters. The casting journey could be a
• 9:41
  movie in its own originally Pete Pedro Pascal rennell renette
• 9:47
  resev I'm terrible names and Brian tyree tyree Henry were
• 9:52
  attached with the Hollywood strikes blew it up.
• 9:54
  Andrew Josh Brolin, Julia Garner, 80 and aldean eldritch
• 9:59
  Benedict Wong and Amy Madeleine a dream team was born.
• 10:04
  Garner plays just Justine Grady, a small town teacher caught in
• 10:08
  the chaos. Brolin is arch graphs is Archer
• 10:11
  graph a broken father turned investigator.
• 10:13
  But Emily Manglen. She is the film's own.
• 10:17
  She's the she's owns the film as Gladys, an elderly woman who
• 10:22
  calm hides everything something truly on sinister.
• 10:27
  So Emily Magnus saved the movie. This is what Craiger said the
• 10:30
  director. So they said that Amy saved the
• 10:33
  movie. She made Gladys Shuman and
• 10:35
  that's what made her terrifying. So kind of getting into the next
• 10:40
  little question here. And also we they did talk about
• 10:42
  that Gladys is going to get her own prequel movie.
• 10:47
  We did talk about in the previous episode on dangerous
• 10:49
  animals, because when we talked about weapons being upcoming, we
• 10:52
  were like, we're going to see this movie.
• 10:53
  But we already knew going in that Gladys is going to get more
• 10:56
  film. I don't like that.
• 10:59
  I just want to state that I don't like the idea.
• 11:00
  Of that I don't I agree with you.
• 11:02
  Like I think that Amy Madigan played a great character.
• 11:06
  Yeah, but at the same time, I don't necessarily feel like I I
• 11:10
  understand that there is a question of like where did this
• 11:14
  come from? But at the same time like.
• 11:17
  I think does. She need her own thing I feel
• 11:19
  like. Well, maybe that's it though.
• 11:21
  Maybe that's it though. Maybe they're just going to do
• 11:23
  like something that runs off as to why she is that way, which I
• 11:27
  would prefer, but I don't think I need a whole film based on
• 11:30
  her. I I just I certainly disagree.
• 11:33
  I think I want I want to know exactly where she come from,
• 11:35
  what exactly she is, how she developed her powers, when she.
• 11:39
  Learned them. I'd rather learn the lineage of
• 11:41
  the power. Not necessarily just.
• 11:43
  Her. Story.
• 11:44
  Like more of everyone's story that.
• 11:46
  Like was she always this way? Did she get that way when she
• 11:49
  was sick? Did her powers cause her to
• 11:51
  decline quicker than she did? Like, there's a lot.
• 11:53
  Sorry, sorry, sorry. Sorry, that's me.
• 11:59
  That's my bad. I'm trying to get better.
• 12:02
  Yeah. So.
• 12:05
  So without spoilers, which character stood out for you the
• 12:08
  most? I guess we can skip out Gladys
• 12:11
  right now. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 12:13
  Did someone else steal the show besides Gladys?
• 12:15
  I don't. Think so I like, I think, I
• 12:17
  think the teacher was the most like I, I did not like the
• 12:21
  teacher the whole time. I, I did not like her the whole
• 12:24
  time, but I think that her acting is so fucking good
• 12:29
  though, or the fucking cop or the cop the dude that she
• 12:33
  interacts with. I don't remember what his name
• 12:35
  is fuck, but his thing was. Fucking yo.
• 12:38
  There's a single hit and I was like, what the fuck, go.
• 12:42
  Ahead, I would say my favorite character was the tweaker.
• 12:45
  I was going to say that too. I was going to say that too,
• 12:47
  though, like because he fucking yeah, his his character is so
• 12:51
  fucking interesting right in in like yeah, no spoilers, but
• 12:57
  yeah, tweaker teacher or the cop that's.
• 13:01
  As far as her acting goes, I think her acting is.
• 13:04
  I won't say that her acting is bad because I haven't seen
• 13:07
  enough of her acting right, but I will say that the characters
• 13:10
  that she has been playing, like I've only seen this and Wolfman.
• 13:13
  Or she just plays a terrified woman.
• 13:16
  A girl who needs a lesson to be freaking learned and you're
• 13:19
  like, is she going to learn it? Did she learn anything actually?
• 13:23
  She's good at emoting like fear and just unsettlingness, right?
• 13:27
  She has. She's really, really good at
• 13:29
  that. The beginning, like the early
• 13:31
  scenes, is where it's like you don't root for her, obviously,
• 13:34
  because you don't know the whole fucking thing.
• 13:35
  I thought she saved Wolfman. I thought she was a high, a huge
• 13:38
  highlight at Wolfman. She was really good in that.
• 13:40
  I have two actors that stood out for me.
• 13:42
  I'm going to go with Josh Brolin, who I I just love him.
• 13:45
  I I think he's great. I've always I fantasized him
• 13:48
  playing Batman. I just think he is a good Bruce
• 13:51
  Wayne look. He has a chiseled handsome
• 13:53
  demore to him and he also is really good in action fight
• 13:56
  scenes. Like he's just sick.
• 13:58
  He's really fucking good. I'm a Josh Rowland fan.
• 14:01
  I want him in the DC Universe so bad if we're.
• 14:03
  Never going to get it. But I will also go with the
• 14:06
  little boy. I was going to say that now.
• 14:08
  I thought about it like he. Did a really good job.
• 14:10
  He kind of pushes the film because if he wasn't believable,
• 14:14
  if he was just like. There's a, there's a whole
• 14:17
  section where, without getting into spoilers, where I was like,
• 14:20
  he may be the one that is a problem here, but then you see
• 14:24
  what he goes through and you're like, fuck, dude.
• 14:26
  As a little kid, he he had to adapt quickly to survive like
• 14:30
  and to. Play that role is such a weird.
• 14:32
  For a child, yeah. Yeah, we'll.
• 14:34
  Have to yeah, sign back. Someone heard that kid, that
• 14:36
  kid, that kid channeled something.
• 14:37
  I don't know. Yeah, let's go to our next one.
• 14:40
  Reception at the box office opening weekend, $43.5 million.
• 14:44
  Final worldwide would be around 256,000,000 on a $38 million
• 14:50
  budget. So it it beat his budget opening
• 14:53
  weekend and then added another 260 some on top of it.
• 14:59
  It was it was horror gold. Audiences and audience gave it
• 15:03
  an A cinema score. Critics were split.
• 15:06
  Some called a genius, you're good and others called it a
• 15:10
  collapse under its own ambition. Empire gave it A5 out of five,
• 15:14
  something that shouldn't work but does.
• 15:16
  Roger, Roger and Ebert gave it a 430.5 out of four and praise its
• 15:20
  restraint. I like that too.
• 15:22
  This is another movie, kind of like Dangerous Animals where
• 15:24
  they could have went like super gory horror, super children are
• 15:30
  in danger type shit. And they did it.
• 15:33
  I feel like it did show restraint where normal horror
• 15:35
  movies are like how fucked up can we make this?
• 15:39
  And it gave really fucked up scenarios, but didn't have to
• 15:41
  visually throw in your face because like we talked about the
• 15:45
  last episode with Chuck, like I'm trying to get her into
• 15:47
  horror, but I'm also not trying to get her to that 70s, eight,
• 15:52
  60s, seventies, 80s, late 90s, hard, early 90s horror where it
• 15:58
  was just like, we're going to hit you with some of the most.
• 16:00
  Intense slasher. Slasher type.
• 16:02
  Stuff like 90s horror, like like 90s Freddy's, I Know What You
• 16:07
  Did Last Summer. Those movies are slasher, but
• 16:10
  it's not over. They were all like kind of like
• 16:11
  PG13 horror movies, like nineties, 2000s, very PG to
• 16:15
  heart. Like mainstream horror is very
• 16:17
  like, I remember growing up like, oh, it's PG13.
• 16:20
  I'm not even wasting my time. It's going to be fucking stupid.
• 16:22
  But then you see like the underground horror and you're
• 16:24
  like, oh, this is where people fucking turn to 11, You know
• 16:27
  what I mean? Like hidden.
• 16:29
  Films and stuff like that, which was like later in the 2000s,
• 16:32
  yeah. Their hidden footage, lost
• 16:33
  footage, whatever, Yeah. This this movie sparks arguments
• 16:37
  that it's usually how classics are born.
• 16:41
  Do you think this kind of divide helps the horror, keeps it
• 16:43
  alive, or hurts movies like Weapons when critics don't agree
• 16:46
  at all? What?
• 16:48
  Just in years, man. They.
• 16:49
  Yeah. What they were just it was like
• 16:51
  a political thing because of the gun scene or something.
• 16:55
  Or I think when they seen weapons and there was children
• 16:58
  in school. They were insinuating it was
• 16:59
  like about mass, Yeah, mass stuff.
• 17:02
  You can't even say what it's about.
• 17:03
  Like this is so aggravating. I'm sorry.
• 17:05
  No, no, but I disagree. I disagree that that's that's
• 17:08
  the whole point of it, though, is like, do you think that
• 17:10
  that's a good thing or a bad thing?
• 17:14
  And it's like, well, the people didn't even watch the film.
• 17:16
  Yeah, right. That was that's the problem is
• 17:18
  that pre pre like viewing, they're like, oh, weapons child,
• 17:24
  all of this. And if you don't watch the film,
• 17:26
  it's like, of course it's going to, you know, it's going.
• 17:28
  To depict it without like. You're immediately going to
• 17:30
  think that there's something that it is.
• 17:32
  Yeah, without a spoiler, there is a scene where they do kind of
• 17:36
  show the tagline of the movie in a supernatural way, saying
• 17:40
  weapons, and it's like a clock. And then it's like a giant AK47
• 17:44
  and you're like, oh, here we go. This is what?
• 17:47
  It means that's what you think. Yeah, that's what they like.
• 17:49
  No, I don't even know. Why?
• 17:51
  Honestly, I don't even know why that was there.
• 17:53
  I'd like to maybe discover that more with you guys, but well, I
• 17:58
  think without saying without goes by saying if if what we
• 18:00
  talked about now intrigues you when you haven't seen the movie.
• 18:03
  Now is the point. If you don't want to be spoiled
• 18:05
  is is your cutoff point. We gave you apple time.
• 18:09
  We are chomping at the bit to talk this movie.
• 18:12
  Pause the pause the episode and watch it and then come back and
• 18:16
  like me. I like listening to people's
• 18:18
  spoilers sometimes. Like if I'm really, really,
• 18:20
  really into a movie, I won't touch it and do anything.
• 18:23
  But if I'm like, but I'm also someone who doesn't give a shit,
• 18:25
  like you can spoil it for me, I'm still to watch it because
• 18:27
  I'm going to develop my own. Yeah, I have.
• 18:29
  We have a dude in the discord, you know him, he fucking spoils
• 18:33
  everything. But if you spoil some on him, he
• 18:36
  fucking has a heart attack. Tony, I'm surprised you're
• 18:39
  talking about yourself. Yeah, but he like he was trying
• 18:42
  to spoil way too for me and I was like, shut the fuck up,
• 18:46
  right. I do that too.
• 18:47
  I do do that too. But I was just like he he he'll
• 18:51
  he'll tell me like, oh, that movie was terrible, XY and Z and
• 18:54
  then I'll go watch it. I'm like, did we watch the same
• 18:56
  movie? Right.
• 18:58
  Well, that's I guess where it comes into play is like me and M
• 19:04
  that's where the barbarian thing came from.
• 19:06
  Her friend is literally a film critic basically like went to
• 19:09
  school to do all that stuff, got their degree or whatever.
• 19:13
  Yeah, come over without like throwing them out there.
• 19:16
  But they were like, oh, you like weapons?
• 19:19
  Don't watch Barbarian because you'll be so upset.
• 19:22
  So I think that's what I'm what I was trying to say before is
• 19:25
  like when I came into it, I was like, it's like, man, I really
• 19:28
  shouldn't have watched barbarian after watching weapons because
• 19:30
  the the jump in professionalism and writing within itself and
• 19:37
  just the jump in like acting. But as a musician, you make your
• 19:41
  first album in your in your personal space with your
• 19:45
  personal equipment on a budget that you have right?
• 19:48
  And then your music is like, holy shit, converse, kid, your
• 19:51
  music so fucking awesome. We now want to throw a $38
• 19:55
  million production for you make your next album.
• 19:57
  Well, here's it's. Not going to be the same quality
• 19:59
  as. But here's the problem, though.
• 20:01
  They didn't need Bill Skarsgard. In the first in in Barbarian,
• 20:06
  they did not need him. I'm not going to lie.
• 20:09
  Yeah, he's in it. He's he's a he is a main
• 20:13
  character in it. And he doesn't do much for the
• 20:16
  film from being so for real. Like, he's a great actor.
• 20:20
  He's usually. He's a great.
• 20:21
  Actor. But that was the thing that was
• 20:23
  that was my concept. I know it's not about that, but
• 20:26
  it's about Zach and his writing within weapons.
• 20:29
  It's like he had the perfect cast.
• 20:32
  So I do think he got lucky within that aspect.
• 20:34
  I do think Barbarian with a better cast lineup because they
• 20:38
  had Justin Long from accepted, right?
• 20:41
  It was Justin Long, and he was also in Jeepers Creepers.
• 20:45
  Yeah. He was in this one for like a
• 20:46
  split second. Yeah, he's just, he's all over
• 20:49
  the place. But he's a great actor because
• 20:50
  he plays in the convenience store, right?
• 20:53
  We've gotten past the. We're in this.
• 20:54
  World. Yeah.
• 20:56
  This is, I think, the first horror movie he's lived through,
• 20:59
  right? One of them.
• 21:00
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. He.
• 21:01
  Does not do well in the. Spoilers.
• 21:03
  He dies in Barbarian I think, Yeah.
• 21:06
  He doesn't get turned into a fucking walrus, does he?
• 21:10
  Tusk? Great movie, no.
• 21:12
  So yeah, we'll talk. That's be a whole other topic.
• 21:14
  But Zach Krieger, because we're talking about films, right?
• 21:17
  He created the movie Miss March, I believe as well with Trevor
• 21:21
  Moore from the Whitest Kids and that came out in like the early
• 21:25
  2000s. I want to say 2004, 2005 S in
• 21:29
  theory, like this is his first major film, but like that one
• 21:33
  was backed pretty well. I think that was a universal
• 21:35
  film. I can't I can't remember, but I.
• 21:37
  Think he definitely made himself a mainstay in film for him.
• 21:41
  Going forward, I think he's going to be a director and
• 21:44
  writer that people are like, oh shit, he has a script.
• 21:47
  Let's let's see what happens here.
• 21:48
  He also, he also wrote on this TV series called Wrecked, I
• 21:53
  believe, and it's about like a shipwreck and it just gets all
• 21:56
  fucky. But you can tell, like if you
• 21:58
  watch that show, you can be like, oh, he wrote this part of
• 22:02
  the script. Like you could see what's his
• 22:04
  writing? Yeah, even even in like if you
• 22:07
  go into the widest kid, you know, skits, they had some dark
• 22:10
  fucking scenes. And it's like, oh, Zach totally
• 22:14
  wrote this or whatever, you know?
• 22:17
  So yeah, it's fucking awesome. Well, let's get into the spoiler
• 22:21
  section of this movie and just do a quick full story breakdown
• 22:26
  so everything starts at 2:17 AM. Seventeen children from the same
• 22:30
  3rd grade class class silently leave their homes and vanish.
• 22:34
  Only Alex Lily remains. I forgot his name was His last
• 22:37
  name was Lily. I did forget that you.
• 22:38
  Know, you kept saying something through like, why can they just
• 22:41
  call him Alex? Like, why do they have to keep
• 22:42
  calling him Alex? Lily.
• 22:43
  Yeah. Alex.
• 22:45
  Lily. Alex.
• 22:45
  Lily. Alex.
• 22:46
  Lily, you're like sitting right next to him.
• 22:49
  The town erupts into chaos. Teacher Justin Grady becomes a
• 22:53
  scapegoat. Meanwhile, grieving father
• 22:55
  Archer Graf launches his own desperate search.
• 22:58
  All trails lead to Lily's house, while windows papered over
• 23:02
  strange noises within. A drifter named James breaks in
• 23:05
  and discovers the missing children in the basement, alive,
• 23:07
  catatonic, watching over them as Gladys.
• 23:11
  Alex is frail on. But she's not just old, she's
• 23:14
  ancient in will. Using personal items and hair,
• 23:16
  she enslaved the town and draining the children's life
• 23:19
  force to stay young. Justin and Archer storm the
• 23:22
  house, facing enchanted versions of of Paul the Cop, the Cop X,
• 23:26
  and James and James. Blood is spilled, spells break,
• 23:31
  and finally Alex mirrors her dark magic back onto her.
• 23:36
  The children's once victims turn on Gladys, ripping her part like
• 23:39
  feral fucking creatures. The spell breaks, the town
• 23:43
  awakes, but the innocence is gone With with with that twist
• 23:48
  hit. Gladys is the puppet master.
• 23:51
  Did it shock you or confirm your suspicions throughout the movie?
• 23:56
  What? Whenever the kids came after.
• 23:59
  No, like when you find out she was the puppet master behind
• 24:02
  everything. I think it would have had she
• 24:05
  not already gone to that house and did all that shit, you know
• 24:09
  what I mean? When she goes to like.
• 24:11
  Hey, your aunt's coming. She's here.
• 24:13
  She's so like, they do it. There was a point there where
• 24:15
  you're 100% sure she was behind everything.
• 24:17
  And then once kind of, she shows up and then the kid comes home
• 24:19
  from school and the parents are catatonic at the table.
• 24:23
  No, definitely. I mean, I'm always very like
• 24:26
  skeptical when I start watching films and I can typically guess
• 24:29
  the ending. I couldn't guess the ending for
• 24:31
  this, but I was like, OK, the aunt's definitely the fucking
• 24:34
  weirdo. When the second that, like, the
• 24:38
  second that they're like, oh, his aunt's coming to town or you
• 24:40
  can't meet, you can't meet with his parents because his aunt's
• 24:44
  coming, right? Yeah.
• 24:45
  That was like one of the earlier scenes, right?
• 24:46
  It was the principal. And he was like, oh, I'll have
• 24:48
  to talk to his, you know, mother or something like or.
• 24:50
  Yeah. Because the whole time you're
• 24:51
  just seeing that the parents are kind of sitting on the couch,
• 24:53
  not moving in the US. You still don't know why.
• 24:56
  Right, so that's what I was going to say is like you kind of
• 24:59
  I knew that there was something about her and I wouldn't say
• 25:01
  that I thought she was straight out evil.
• 25:04
  I would say maybe she was like drugging the parents, Like, oh,
• 25:07
  maybe she was supposed like in my brain, like maybe she was
• 25:09
  taking care of this, this couple who was sick and like giving
• 25:13
  them too much meds or something. But then it shows you the part
• 25:16
  where she goes into the principal's house and does all
• 25:20
  that. Yeah, that's where I was like.
• 25:21
  When you're like, oh, so wait, so if she can control people
• 25:25
  just like that, like that's the instant that you know that she
• 25:27
  can control people. So you know that she controlled
• 25:30
  the mom, but you should go out to the car and cut the hair off
• 25:33
  of the teacher and then you're just sitting.
• 25:35
  There, but you're not sure how to.
• 25:36
  Control with the teacher. The whole time, the best part
• 25:39
  though, is like, you're not really sure how the kids get to
• 25:43
  the point of being in that house.
• 25:45
  You're still not sure. You're still never sure where
• 25:46
  the kids went because it could be a scapegoat.
• 25:48
  Still, you know, the kids thing could be completely different.
• 25:52
  Didn't learn her power until the principal.
• 25:55
  Right. Yeah.
• 25:56
  And then like I said, that's the part where you're like.
• 25:57
  Or no the parents. No, it was the.
• 26:00
  Principal first. So what happened was the
• 26:03
  principal has already like attacked, right?
• 26:07
  And then you don't you don't see the why he attacked.
• 26:10
  You see Alex or the the kid, Josh Brolin's character
• 26:14
  attacking the principal, who's attacking, right, Justine.
• 26:17
  Yeah, 'cause you're like and then you.
• 26:18
  And then that dissipates and I don't remember where we go, what
• 26:21
  little story we go on to from that.
• 26:23
  But then you see how she's like treating the parents and
• 26:27
  everything like that. And then you get to the part
• 26:29
  where she's like snapping it or she gets where we're back to the
• 26:33
  principal now in the. Principal's house, Yeah, yeah,
• 26:37
  yeah. Cuz I think it follows the
• 26:38
  teacher after that where she follows Alex home and that's
• 26:42
  when the teacher falls asleep in the in the car and you're like,
• 26:46
  OK, so something weird's happening that looks like a
• 26:48
  fucking zombie coming outside and everything and she gets in
• 26:53
  the fucking. That's probably the scariest
• 26:55
  part of the film with the scissors.
• 26:57
  And she's like already jerking around and you're like, because
• 27:00
  she got to cut. Her and then she just cuts her
• 27:02
  hair and then she just cuts her fucking hair and I'm like,
• 27:04
  that's so scary. But that's the part you see the
• 27:07
  the mom who is already like, zombified almost, I guess you
• 27:11
  could say. And you're like, OK, so is that
• 27:16
  a dead person? Is, you know, you're like, what
• 27:18
  the fuck's going on? Yeah, Yeah, was.
• 27:21
  Anyone else's first thought voodoo dolls?
• 27:23
  No, no, not just me. You were thinking vampire for a
• 27:27
  while too. Well, yeah, because everything
• 27:29
  was being done at the dark. Yeah, and it was all being done
• 27:32
  in. Dark and like the like all the
• 27:35
  papers on the windows and everything was like it needs to
• 27:37
  be dark. Everything's happening in the
• 27:39
  dark. But I was thinking, no, I was
• 27:42
  thinking like maybe voodoo dolls because I'm thinking like she
• 27:44
  has the parents and like, I didn't know what she was doing
• 27:47
  with the teacher's hair yet. So I was like, oh, she's
• 27:50
  controlling them. Like she's making little, she's
• 27:52
  making little, whatever with all of them.
• 27:54
  And then it got. Which she never.
• 27:56
  She never. Uses the teacher's hair, right?
• 27:59
  She does she. Does at the principal in the
• 28:01
  principal's house kitchen? Yeah, in the kitchen.
• 28:04
  She uses her hair for the principal.
• 28:05
  Oh. And then, yeah, that's why he
• 28:07
  goes after her. That's right, yeah.
• 28:08
  She needed the hair. She.
• 28:09
  Keeps the hair like she took it, she she takes it back off the
• 28:13
  stick and like tucks it away. And I was waiting for her to use
• 28:16
  it again and I don't think she ever did.
• 28:19
  OK, Yeah, I. Don't remember her taking it
• 28:22
  back off. Yeah, she like breaks it and
• 28:24
  there's still a strand and then she keeps it.
• 28:27
  I think it might have been. It could have been the
• 28:29
  principles as well, because to use again.
• 28:31
  That's true to use that. Again.
• 28:32
  But then that didn't happen because he fucking died.
• 28:36
  Yeah, the that part which is super fucked up because so he
• 28:39
  like chases her. He runs all the way from his
• 28:42
  house before. That.
• 28:43
  To the fucking gas station. Oh yeah, that's the part where I
• 28:47
  was. Like head butts?
• 28:48
  Yeah, he just head butts him. And I thought this was so cool
• 28:51
  because you don't see the actual gore.
• 28:54
  Like you don't, It's not overhead, it's just you're
• 28:57
  seeing him just fucking thuds and you watch his face get kind
• 29:01
  of like Kincave, but it's still not super.
• 29:04
  Yeah, it's still not super gory. It's still like, pretty fucking
• 29:09
  tame for for a horror. You know that what's happening
• 29:12
  is visceral when they're not shoving your face in.
• 29:15
  It and even after he finishes, he stands up and they still have
• 29:20
  the shot of they then have the shot of his partner on the
• 29:23
  ground, but it's kind of blurred.
• 29:26
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you can't see it all I feel
• 29:29
  like. So cool.
• 29:30
  I'm not trying to be like I figured a lot of this but I feel
• 29:32
  like I was pretty on par with a lot of my things.
• 29:35
  I was like, I think so I thought from the beginning I was like, I
• 29:38
  think, I think the movie does kind of tell you a little bit of
• 29:41
  what it's gonna go throughout the like when they were a witch
• 29:43
  in her car. And I was like, and then I seen
• 29:45
  Gladys and like, Gladys is a witch.
• 29:47
  Yeah, I think she has some type of witch powers and then.
• 29:51
  Cuz they write it in the red lipstick and then she's wearing
• 29:55
  the red lipstick or the red paint.
• 29:57
  Yeah. And then when I was just like,
• 29:59
  but also she's a witch, but she's almost like a parasite.
• 30:03
  Like she her, she needs life force.
• 30:05
  And then the one time they're in school, they're teaching the
• 30:08
  kids about parasites. It's no, it's in the well, that
• 30:12
  too, but it's also in the TV show at the ants is the fungus
• 30:16
  that grows on. Ants.
• 30:17
  Yeah. So they were talking about
• 30:18
  parasites a little bit there, too.
• 30:19
  The Gladys is almost like a parasite or she's a witch or
• 30:22
  something along those. Is she demonic?
• 30:24
  Like, there's a lot of different layers.
• 30:25
  You can go with that. Yeah.
• 30:28
  The fucking, I'll tell you the scene that got me.
• 30:31
  Like, I was just like, and it's not even like supernatural
• 30:34
  horror, but when he arrests the tweaker and he's like, do you
• 30:38
  have anything in your pocket? And he fucking sticks his finger
• 30:41
  in his pocket and hits the needle and he just go, I was
• 30:47
  like, what the fuck, man? And he was just like, what the
• 30:51
  fuck? He like, he snaps back into it
• 30:52
  like shit, I just fucked up. Yeah, 'cause his body cam's on
• 30:57
  and everything, you know, like these cameras on and shit.
• 31:00
  And then I thought that sequence with the cop was one of my
• 31:04
  favorite sequences of the movie because it was so real 'cause
• 31:08
  then he goes back to the his boss, which is his ex's or his
• 31:13
  current wife, and. Then he gets caught cheating.
• 31:18
  And. Then he has this whole thing
• 31:20
  where he's cheating on his wife, who's his, and her dad's his
• 31:24
  boss. And then he just made a fucking
• 31:27
  mistake that could, Yeah, that can literally get him arrested
• 31:31
  as a police officer. You're missing a whole nother
• 31:33
  layer to this. He was sober.
• 31:37
  Yeah, that's what it was too. Yeah.
• 31:38
  And then because the print. Oh.
• 31:40
  Shit so. He.
• 31:41
  He the night before that still before all this though, the
• 31:44
  night before that he was drinking with a teacher and then
• 31:48
  next day on top of that he freaking gets stabbed by this.
• 31:51
  And the dad's like, well, we'll cover it up.
• 31:53
  As long as this dude does not show his face for 30 days,
• 31:56
  you're good. And then you see the fucker
• 31:58
  walking to the police station. He's right.
• 32:00
  And. You're like, why?
• 32:01
  Why would he even cover around here?
• 32:03
  And then you. You find out he finds the
• 32:05
  children, which I was like, what a fucking good layer.
• 32:08
  It was, yeah. That's that has to be one of my
• 32:11
  favorite sections in the film. I'll be, I'll be so for real
• 32:14
  like I didn't. Speaker puts a lot together.
• 32:15
  I did not like his character though.
• 32:17
  I was like, fuck, I don't like that this guy is going to go in
• 32:20
  here clearly just trying to rob shit.
• 32:22
  And then it's going to like turn around and then be like, oh,
• 32:26
  your Twitter's the hero. Like, I don't know, like it felt
• 32:29
  weird, right? It felt like a weird way of them
• 32:31
  to like put his character in there, but then it like kind of
• 32:34
  closes in and you're like, oh shit, you know, like the
• 32:37
  redemption is. And it's like you feel even
• 32:40
  worse because it's like, oh, wait, no, he's just trying to
• 32:42
  turn his shit around anyway. And then?
• 32:44
  When the when he's hiding in the tent.
• 32:46
  And then you think Gladys. Yeah, you.
• 32:48
  Think that Gladys and he. Fucking has the needles again
• 32:50
  and he's the cop again with needles.
• 32:52
  He's like, you're in these fucking needles.
• 32:55
  I would like to go to that right.
• 32:57
  So there's imagery of her so many times before you even see
• 33:01
  who she is, before she's ever come into contact with these
• 33:04
  characters. And that's the thing that I
• 33:07
  don't, I either don't like it or I don't understand it.
• 33:11
  Because you see her, she scares the dad in his like dreams.
• 33:17
  She scares the teacher right in her dreams as well, right?
• 33:20
  Like her face pops up when she's laying in bed at night and then
• 33:24
  from the ceiling. So you're seeing all this
• 33:27
  imagery of a lady with like orange and like the lipstick and
• 33:30
  everything wait before you ever get to know her.
• 33:32
  And then it finally clicks. Well, I'm like, why would you
• 33:34
  have to show that? Or why is that a thing?
• 33:37
  You know, that's not something that they ever come back to in
• 33:40
  the end. So I think she she's also very
• 33:44
  hyper aware of keeping the story where it needs to be and like,
• 33:48
  who's on to her and who's looking into her.
• 33:51
  And the teacher was definitely one of those people.
• 33:53
  The dad was one of those people. And the tweaker just happened to
• 33:56
  be a guy who's like, fuck, he's figuring shit out.
• 34:00
  So the tweaker already went into the house and found the
• 34:02
  children. And then she was like, well, now
• 34:05
  I got to follow him because he could fucking ruin everything
• 34:07
  for right. So she's essentially she does
• 34:10
  have the power to fucking get into your mind with her, her
• 34:13
  thing. That's that's just the only
• 34:15
  popular we know of with her. So if she can do that, she may
• 34:19
  have other things where she can maybe astral project or she can
• 34:23
  make you astral project and make you like get into your head and
• 34:27
  almost invoke that fear. Like that's what other reason
• 34:31
  why I want more Gladys, because I think there's more abilities
• 34:33
  to her that we might not even know.
• 34:35
  Yeah, That might not relate to like the things that are going
• 34:39
  on necessarily in this story or? Something because the best way
• 34:42
  to discredit somebody if especially if you're trying to
• 34:45
  do something, is make them seem like they're crazy.
• 34:48
  And if you're sitting here saying I'm having these weird
• 34:50
  dreams and you confide in someone and someone's like, how
• 34:53
  about this fucking personal there?
• 34:56
  You know what I mean? And then immediately you're
• 34:58
  discredited as a person of personal contact.
• 35:01
  And now Gladys can keep doing what she's.
• 35:03
  Doing right. No, for sure.
• 35:04
  I that was just one thing where I was like, I get it, but like
• 35:08
  she never physically came in contact with them or something.
• 35:11
  You know what I mean? Like, it's not like they had
• 35:13
  their belongings there. Well, maybe the teacher.
• 35:15
  Yeah, because the kid goes to school and then they are already
• 35:18
  missing. But like, I don't know, it was
• 35:21
  just, that was just the only thing where I was like, well,
• 35:23
  why would you show her immediately and then, you know,
• 35:27
  fucking later on? Obviously it like resembles
• 35:30
  itself, but it's just like, I don't know.
• 35:33
  I feel like as far as like seeing more of her story, I
• 35:35
  don't really see a point in it. I have more questions as like
• 35:38
  what happens to her power now? Like does the kid end up
• 35:41
  becoming the next version of it or like something like that?
• 35:44
  Like, but I don't, I'm not saying again that like are there
• 35:49
  more questions and are are can we find out more stories?
• 35:52
  Sure, but like was the premise of who Gladys was enough in
• 35:56
  this? Right, so you think weapons
• 35:57
  should just end here? No, but I think she's saying
• 36:01
  like Lily's saying like why Gladys?
• 36:04
  Or like with just the power itself, right?
• 36:07
  Like the origin of it? Someone.
• 36:10
  Else or I would like I can I feel like you can squeeze at
• 36:13
  least two more movies out of weapons.
• 36:15
  I think you can give us the prequel with Gladys, which I'm
• 36:18
  cool with. And then I definitely think we
• 36:21
  we need to learn more about. So here's the thing too.
• 36:24
  I think you give us a Gladys movie and then you also see
• 36:28
  maybe someone come out of her ability and what actually
• 36:30
  happens to them. And then you're in your brain
• 36:33
  can start piercing. Well, oh shit.
• 36:34
  And this is how their long term effects is.
• 36:37
  What about that fucking town? What about those kids?
• 36:38
  Parents because like at the end when you see you.
• 36:41
  Have no idea. When you see all the kids,
• 36:43
  they're just like what happened after they tore this old lady.
• 36:46
  Now they couldn't even talk. They were all like catatonic.
• 36:49
  The narrator says in the movie, yeah, everything kind of went
• 36:53
  back to normal. Nobody talks about it.
• 36:54
  The news, everything kind of just acted like we acted like it
• 36:57
  never, never happened. It's like a year.
• 36:59
  Later, a year later, some of the kids are now starting to talk
• 37:01
  again. I thought the somebody do
• 37:03
  anything. Because the parents, there's the
• 37:05
  scene at the end, there's the scene where like, finally, you
• 37:11
  know, they break the kids out of this spell because Alex snaps
• 37:17
  the fucking thing in the water as his parents are chasing him.
• 37:21
  He he, he, he goes into the bedroom.
• 37:23
  He takes her real hair from the wig, puts it on the twig, tricks
• 37:28
  his finger with the blood, snaps it.
• 37:30
  And then all the fucking children go crazy and you're
• 37:33
  like, oh, shit. And you think kind of that
• 37:36
  they're going to go ramp it around the town because you're
• 37:38
  like, how could anything else happen?
• 37:40
  Well, no, he took her hair. Yeah, her hair.
• 37:42
  Yeah, but the wig. Right.
• 37:45
  So that's where I'm confused. Like, is that her real hair?
• 37:49
  He took the hair from inside the wig.
• 37:51
  I don't, I don't think he took any hair from the wig.
• 37:54
  I I don't think he took. Any hair they showed him, do it.
• 37:57
  They showed him take hair from the wig.
• 38:00
  No, he. He he goes inside the wig and
• 38:02
  pulls her long blonde hair out. OK, I thought he just took one
• 38:05
  of the. Yeah, I thought, yeah, that's
• 38:07
  why I. Was like, I thought it was going
• 38:08
  to be more like that it was something that belonged to her.
• 38:11
  Like it was like a. Right, that's true too, because
• 38:14
  when in when he goes into the school, even if it wasn't her
• 38:17
  hair, he went into school and he just took the book, the fucking
• 38:20
  textbooks. Took the papers with all the
• 38:22
  names. Oh yeah, that too.
• 38:24
  Yeah. So like, I guess that's what it
• 38:26
  is. It just has to be a belonging of
• 38:27
  you. But like Even so then.
• 38:29
  Because she did have little hair left and she had like long
• 38:33
  blonde that she would tuck up into the wig.
• 38:35
  You see him physically like gather up what's inside the wig
• 38:39
  and use that. I think there's so many parts of
• 38:41
  this film too where you jump from like hating her to being
• 38:44
  like, oh shit, I feel bad for this woman.
• 38:48
  I feel like the part where she's like actually taking care of him
• 38:51
  and then she gets sicker and then you see the like transition
• 38:55
  in him of being like, like, fuck, I've been taking care of
• 38:58
  my parents. This is the only lady.
• 39:00
  This is the only person that's like actually knows that I
• 39:03
  exist, what happens to me and he's like feeding soup to his
• 39:07
  parents and these kids. And that's why all the.
• 39:09
  Kids are bullying him. He's really feeding the kids
• 39:11
  that have fuck with him. Every and he doesn't do anything
• 39:14
  to them negatively. So it's like I think that's
• 39:16
  where the acting from that kid is so important, you know, as to
• 39:20
  be like, this is just what he does.
• 39:22
  He goes and gets cans of soup and I think it's so weird.
• 39:25
  I think it's really weird though that especially in this day and
• 39:30
  age, there's not a fucking Home Alone type scene where he goes
• 39:33
  and they're like, where are you? They're not like, where are you
• 39:36
  parents? So like, I think that's kind of
• 39:37
  fucking weird. But this also seems like a very
• 39:41
  close knit community where everyone kind of knows each
• 39:44
  other. Right.
• 39:45
  Don't you think that worry would be even more?
• 39:47
  Well, they kind of set the tongue that his parents are sick
• 39:50
  and his aunt's taking care. Of him, that's true.
• 39:51
  So they're they probably thought that just like, oh, he's not
• 39:54
  going. There.
• 39:55
  And he's and he's not cracking like the teacher was like,
• 39:57
  please tell me what's just get away from me.
• 39:59
  Like I can't tell you fucking anything.
• 40:01
  Like you, if I tell you my parent, I just watch my parents
• 40:04
  stab themselves in the faithful forks.
• 40:05
  Yeah. That scene is eerie.
• 40:07
  That's where the gore starts to settle in is like later on in
• 40:10
  the film. Yeah, that's what I would say.
• 40:12
  And they're like, they're still not like profusely bleeding.
• 40:14
  They have punctures, but they're not like, leaking.
• 40:16
  It's still just fucking ears, yeah.
• 40:18
  It's hard to watch. And so like that scene really
• 40:21
  got to me because then in my head I'm like, fuck, what if,
• 40:24
  what if I ever had to? Like I couldn't imagine being
• 40:27
  that kid, that like 10 year old kid, like he's not old enough to
• 40:32
  do a lot of shit by himself and he's just watching his parents
• 40:36
  like lose it. And he's like literally crying
• 40:39
  and then sitting at the table with them, like just crying.
• 40:41
  But like being like shuts down entirely.
• 40:44
  Right, yeah, but the interesting thing there too, was the parents
• 40:47
  were crying. So like there's a there isn't a
• 40:50
  layer while they were still first catatonic, like they knew
• 40:55
  they knew that they're like fuck dude, we can't do anything about
• 40:57
  this. Like the like the dad's
• 40:59
  literally like looking. At the tear going and tearing.
• 41:01
  Like, like he's, it seems like he's almost physically there in
• 41:05
  his brain, yeah, but can't do anything.
• 41:07
  About it, yeah he's he's he's like aware of everything, but
• 41:11
  there's no he does not have the power to fucking and like
• 41:14
  literally. Under that, almost like frozen.
• 41:17
  Yeah, fucking crazy. And he like, so I watched a
• 41:22
  couple interviews of Zach because obviously I've followed
• 41:25
  him for a long time just through like his sketch comedy.
• 41:28
  And then like they did like Twitch streams and shit like
• 41:30
  that. And there's an interview where
• 41:33
  they talk about the scene that you're talking about where
• 41:35
  there's the gun in the sky. And then it says like 216 and he
• 41:38
  is like or 217. And people were like,
• 41:41
  insinuating that that meant it was like a shooting.
• 41:43
  But if you pay attention. Yeah.
• 41:47
  And also if you pay attention, it's just insinuating like the
• 41:52
  dad was in some kind of Army or Marines, like he's been
• 41:56
  previously deployed or something.
• 41:58
  Yeah. Yeah, exactly.
• 42:00
  And but he never expands all that.
• 42:02
  He's like, I don't know why I put that there, but I think
• 42:05
  that's all it is, is he's just like, it's just a cool visual,
• 42:08
  the. Idea of weapons is essentially
• 42:12
  you want to take this one because I know that you were
• 42:14
  kind of hinting at that earlier. Oh, I don't like the term that
• 42:17
  the kids were everyone was kind of being weaponized with her
• 42:20
  ability. Yeah, yeah.
• 42:21
  Like her ability was weaponizing people.
• 42:23
  I was saying like, almost like in the whole movie as a whole,
• 42:27
  everybody had some sort of grief that they were dealing with,
• 42:30
  that they were like trying to keep a secret, right?
• 42:33
  And they were all it was all being used as a weapon against
• 42:36
  them. Yeah, who do you think was the
• 42:37
  most innocent bystander to this whole case?
• 42:41
  Can I have a list of everybody? First, I think it's super easy.
• 42:46
  I think the fucking. The principal.
• 42:48
  Yeah, the principal didn't appreciate.
• 42:50
  Showing a whole no, you know no no, no, no, no, no don't I don't
• 42:55
  agree with that yo that that principal was like I don't want
• 42:58
  to be involved in this. I don't need to know about this
• 43:01
  kids personal life. I don't care about what he's
• 43:03
  going through, the fact that he just lost 17 classmates, it's
• 43:07
  whatever. Like get over it.
• 43:09
  I don't think, yeah, I don't think the principal was super
• 43:11
  innocent either because he kept, he was like, oh, you know, it
• 43:16
  was a hassle. It was hard to take care of.
• 43:18
  And then like the teacher was trying to figure it out.
• 43:21
  And then the principal was like, stop dying.
• 43:23
  Stop putting your nose into it. Just let it die.
• 43:25
  Yeah. He's literally like like let's
• 43:26
  just fucking. But that's not a form of
• 43:28
  innocence, that's a form of him being like I don't.
• 43:30
  Want to but I think. There's a lot of moving parts
• 43:32
  for his job and he's trying to fucking navigate the fact that
• 43:36
  like, hey, I'm a principal and my job is to make sure the
• 43:38
  school still moves smoothly. The police are handling the
• 43:41
  missing case. Teacher fucking.
• 43:44
  I believe in you as a person. I don't think you did this, but
• 43:47
  I also need you to fuck off right now and just stay the fuck
• 43:51
  home and stay out of this because you're making my job
• 43:53
  harder. And now you're calling me to
• 43:56
  because like, here's the thing. When you get involved with kids
• 43:58
  at all, If you're, because I had to go through this as a coach,
• 44:01
  if I'm a coach and I'm coaching kids and a kid comes up to me
• 44:04
  and says, hey, like I'm having a rough go, you have to report
• 44:09
  that. And you're kind of like, fuck,
• 44:11
  like this is going to be a thing.
• 44:14
  And then you have to kind of like they want you as a reporter
• 44:18
  to be like, don't ask any questions, just report it.
• 44:21
  But then you have to also be like, you have to vet it a
• 44:23
  little bit, you know what I mean?
• 44:24
  And then as a principal, you have to then do that and then be
• 44:27
  a guidance counselor and then do all this with hundreds of kids
• 44:31
  in the school now 17 just go missing and your teacher is
• 44:35
  fucking digging their nose and breaking into the house and
• 44:38
  following the kid. And this teacher's well, that's.
• 44:40
  The thing too is like it's the The problem is that like so much
• 44:44
  time had passed and people are still going after the fucking
• 44:48
  teacher and the principal is not doing shit to help the teacher
• 44:51
  at all. She's not helping herself.
• 44:53
  I don't know she's. She's stalking the little kid
• 44:55
  showing up at the school. OK.
• 44:58
  Hey, you just killed 16 of the 17 kids on your soccer team.
• 45:04
  Yeah. You're not going to sit there
• 45:05
  and be like these. These cops aren't doing
• 45:08
  anything. My boss isn't doing anything.
• 45:09
  I'm just going to sit here with my thumb on my butt and do
• 45:12
  nothing. Bullshit you in your community
• 45:15
  and then you look more suspicious than anything at the
• 45:19
  end of the day. Like in that position that you
• 45:21
  have to fucking let people do what they're supposed to do.
• 45:24
  Like I'm not a source off. I would.
• 45:27
  I would not be in my public town drinking in bars, getting
• 45:30
  fucking smashed, buying bottles and bottles of vodka in a small
• 45:33
  little community and then fucking stake out the last kid
• 45:37
  in my fucking school. Billy, He didn't have to yell.
• 45:40
  That's what I'm doing. That's what I wouldn't be, you
• 45:43
  know what I'm saying? Like this whole time.
• 45:45
  Like you stupid fucking idiot, Like why are you there?
• 45:47
  Well, I think there was. There were plenty of times where
• 45:49
  I'm like, girl, what are you saying?
• 45:50
  Yeah. There's there's so much
• 45:52
  throughout the beginning of the film where you're like, oh,
• 45:54
  she's just making that perspective that you're giving
• 45:57
  yourself. You know, she's she's just
• 46:00
  playing into that. And then later on you're like,
• 46:02
  oh shit. Well, you know, it's been like
• 46:04
  how long? Of course she's going to
• 46:06
  fucking. Yeah, feel this way.
• 46:08
  You hold on to, that's what I'm saying after so long of just
• 46:11
  everyone going Oh yeah, well. You spray paint in your car and
• 46:15
  fucking and going to your house. Like that's the thing.
• 46:17
  It's been months of that. And it's the.
• 46:20
  Josh Boland's character who painted her.
• 46:21
  Car No, they still insinuate that, but he never fucking.
• 46:26
  They never confirmed that they they insinuate it, but they
• 46:30
  never confirmed that he did it. You.
• 46:32
  Know where the paint came from. Yeah.
• 46:34
  His construction site, Yeah, because they grabbed the wrong
• 46:36
  paint. Oh shit.
• 46:37
  And it wasn't opened. And there was one can that was
• 46:40
  opened. And then they later show it in
• 46:42
  the trunk of his car. And they show his truck and they
• 46:45
  show him in the truck, follow her to her house, right?
• 46:48
  And then he watches her. I still think it's all, I still
• 46:50
  think it's all a red herring. I think that kids fucked with
• 46:53
  her while he wasn't paying attention or something because
• 46:56
  he's going. To try to pit it against.
• 46:57
  Him right, because when he goes because he's gotten to the
• 47:00
  school several times at the meetings and been the same
• 47:03
  intrusiveness as the teacher has been, you know, so I think
• 47:07
  there's there's another character which could be Gladys
• 47:10
  as the parents being like go fuck with this guy or like do
• 47:14
  you think? There's a possibility that
• 47:15
  Gladys also had his hair. That's true.
• 47:18
  And was like controlling him to kind of be that to keep to stay
• 47:23
  on her tail that like, oh, this woman's can take the wrap.
• 47:27
  She's been taking the wrap for it for the last three months.
• 47:30
  And if there's just him being planted here as a seed to keep
• 47:33
  going, like, Yep, let's just keep all eyes on her.
• 47:36
  Yeah, that means it's possible because like you said, it just
• 47:39
  has to be a belonging. And if the dude was as close
• 47:43
  with his son as you infer that he was, there's probably a
• 47:46
  belonging of the dad with the kids.
• 47:48
  Shit, you know or whatever. Or even.
• 47:52
  In his truck when he. Planted the paint.
• 47:54
  Yeah, it could be. It could be.
• 47:56
  I wouldn't go there. I like his theory, but I
• 47:58
  wouldn't go. With it, I just the only reason
• 48:00
  I don't believe it is because when he gets to the gas station
• 48:04
  to talk to her and he looks at he's like who the you know what
• 48:07
  I mean? Like no one thinks you're a
• 48:08
  monster. I just want to know where my kid
• 48:10
  is. So why would someone say that
• 48:12
  after painting on the fucking car?
• 48:15
  Because I think because he doesn't, he doesn't the night at
• 48:19
  the PTA meeting where he's genuinely hot, he was hot enough
• 48:21
  to stand up and scream something and then stalked her and then
• 48:24
  watched her go to the liquor store and buy Blues.
• 48:26
  And like he, I think he staked, I think he staked her out enough
• 48:29
  to realize like, fuck, I'm watching her and I'm studying
• 48:33
  her and I'm just watching her movements and she's really not
• 48:36
  doing anything that shows anything anymore.
• 48:38
  And then he sees this psycho principle run down the street
• 48:40
  with his eyes bulging into his head.
• 48:41
  That's clearly something more. And I think he was like, there's
• 48:44
  something deeper here and I need to help her.
• 48:48
  Yeah, let. Me tell you where I where I can
• 48:50
  get behind Billy one more time on this the night of the PTA
• 48:54
  meeting, he had everybody pissed off.
• 48:57
  And yes, I do believe that he followed her and was still ready
• 49:00
  to give him more of a piece of his mind.
• 49:02
  But because he had everybody pissed off, people are playing
• 49:04
  Ding Dong ditch with her. I think it's very possible that
• 49:07
  somebody else did it and then shoved it in the back of his
• 49:10
  truck to be like, ha ha, he's the one who was yelling.
• 49:13
  But he was where he was positioned on the street.
• 49:16
  He would have seen someone knock on her door because they don't
• 49:19
  show that either. Because the whole I think, I
• 49:21
  think he was the one that knocked on her door so she can
• 49:23
  come out and see the rest that. She left on her and then maybe
• 49:25
  more, maybe a lot of it too was just her anxiety because she
• 49:29
  hears a lot of things and then she goes out and it's just
• 49:32
  people walking by. So there's there's so much
• 49:34
  that's like insinuated but not too cleared up on, but it's like
• 49:37
  totally OK, because it's just, you know, how you weaponize your
• 49:41
  fear and your and. He was like triangulating to
• 49:45
  where the kids ran or where they ran from.
• 49:46
  And then she was he's like, here's 2 paths of two cameras I
• 49:49
  have and he's like Jason. To each other.
• 49:52
  That's, that's, that's, that's Lily's the Lily's house.
• 49:55
  Yeah. You know what I mean?
• 49:57
  It was it was done really well. Yeah.
• 49:59
  Let me just get to my last sequence here, and we'll, we'll
• 50:01
  get close to the end. So in the end, Alex becomes both
• 50:04
  the hero and the heir to the darkness.
• 50:06
  By using Gladys's own spell, he inherits part of her legacy.
• 50:10
  Originally, Craiger planned a silent ending.
• 50:12
  Just one child staring at the camera.
• 50:14
  Test audiences demanded closure, so he added Alex's voice over
• 50:18
  and redaction. So he's.
• 50:19
  So it is Alex's. Voice, that's what they're
• 50:22
  saying here. I don't know if that's confirmed
• 50:24
  or not, but I I thought it was it was one of the kids voice.
• 50:27
  The narrator. Yeah.
• 50:30
  So Gladys equals grief that that refuses to die.
• 50:34
  The children's revolt equals victims reclaiming their power,
• 50:37
  and Alex's fate equals trauma reborn.
• 50:39
  Maybe the cycle begins again. It's not a happy ending.
• 50:43
  It's a survival horror. Messy, haunting, unforgettable.
• 50:46
  Do you see Alex as free or doomed to repeat Gladys's what
• 50:51
  Gladys started? Yeah, I think it's it's a
• 50:53
  struggle. It's a struggle because like, I
• 50:57
  don't know, after if if I were to be that kid that went through
• 50:59
  all that trauma, I think I would just be like, it's over.
• 51:02
  Life's over for me. I'm going to check out.
• 51:05
  You know what I mean? You're also a kid who's super
• 51:07
  traumatized, who's been bullied and picked on and watched.
• 51:09
  But then also there's with Maybe you can.
• 51:13
  I'm just going by the pop culture version of witchcraft
• 51:17
  and spells and shit. Right how you could utilize the
• 51:22
  all that shit also like get what he wants.
• 51:24
  I've done a couple episodes of Truth Behind Illusion.
• 51:26
  From what I've learned from magic and casting spells that if
• 51:30
  you do set negative intention in a spell to go after someone
• 51:34
  there is a there is a blowback to that you are you're going to
• 51:38
  get some negative shit thrown to you.
• 51:40
  If you were going to use magic in a negative way, I.
• 51:43
  Don't think this is necessarily a truth of all magic, but it
• 51:49
  more encompassing blanket statement.
• 51:52
  There's always like a price to pay.
• 51:54
  Sure. And I think once he, yes, he
• 51:57
  used the magic to save the day. But I think, yes, I think
• 52:00
  there's going to be something attached to him because even
• 52:03
  though he used the magic for good, he used dark magic.
• 52:06
  Yeah, so like insinuating that like maybe the reason that maybe
• 52:10
  the reason that Gladys used it ever in the 1st place was
• 52:13
  because of a, a, a land of negativity.
• 52:16
  And then in turn she got sick and she was like, well, if I
• 52:20
  just use it on one, one person that was a bad person, you know,
• 52:24
  And then she was like, shit, that bad person wasn't young
• 52:27
  enough. I know.
• 52:28
  I need it as a life force to keep myself alive.
• 52:30
  Yeah. Or what if it was like, let's
• 52:32
  say that she had her own Gladys, right?
• 52:34
  Like this is, and she's like, I don't want to have to pass this
• 52:39
  on to someone else. I'll take all of this
• 52:42
  responsibility. Trust me, kid, you don't want
• 52:44
  this yeah type thing. And you know, cuz you don't know
• 52:47
  how long she's been doing it for either.
• 52:49
  Like you know that the, the mom says something about, oh, Aunt
• 52:52
  Gladys was staying with so and so, but she passed away as you
• 52:55
  remember. But Aunt Gladys is big.
• 52:57
  You're just coming to stay with us.
• 52:58
  Crazy so. She was like.
• 53:00
  So it's like, oh, so she's kind of just going from like this
• 53:03
  town to that town, and it's like, oh, she's a distant, like,
• 53:06
  oh, how come I've never heard of Aunt Gladys before?
• 53:08
  And The thing is too is that like you never Aunt Gladys could
• 53:13
  have never been a part of the family in the 1st place I think.
• 53:16
  And then she met the parents. It's like, oh, they look healthy
• 53:20
  because the dad. Didn't really know anything
• 53:21
  about. It Yeah.
• 53:23
  And the mom, but the mom was even like, oh, she's a distant
• 53:25
  relative. She we invited her to the
• 53:28
  wedding, but something like that.
• 53:29
  But like, oh, she's coming and we're coming here to take care
• 53:31
  of her and. You know, which is all the more
• 53:33
  reason why we need more. I guess that's I guess that's
• 53:35
  why they set it up like that is like she'll you'll find out how
• 53:39
  she met the parents and it won't be the.
• 53:41
  Fact that she's how she's calculated, how she goes about
• 53:44
  life. Yeah.
• 53:45
  I agree I'm. Just I'm still more curious,
• 53:47
  like how you're talking now. I'm more curious to see what
• 53:51
  happens with Alex in the future. Like, yeah.
• 53:52
  OK, so then what's next for him? I think just because we're
• 53:55
  riddled in a world with prequels that some of us are.
• 53:58
  Live over the prequels. I don't care about what's in the
• 54:00
  past. Help me.
• 54:01
  Tell me how you're going to. Change.
• 54:02
  Here's the thing here, Weapons is very unique and different,
• 54:05
  and it's not a rewash of something else.
• 54:07
  And if you're going to give me a franchise based on something new
• 54:10
  and a new idea, fucking yeah. I want to dive with a
• 54:13
  disfranchise. I guess that's what I really
• 54:15
  want is to know what Zach had watched or like what inspired
• 54:21
  the way that he wrote, because it doesn't feel the same as
• 54:25
  anything like the way that's written is.
• 54:26
  So it's structured. It's structured so well, you
• 54:30
  know, and, and that's where Justin came in.
• 54:34
  He was a parent of one of the kids and he was, he was coming
• 54:36
  home with the shopping bags and the dad encountered him because
• 54:39
  the mom was like, no, you can't see the fucking footage.
• 54:42
  You can't just click in my head. And then he walks outside and
• 54:45
  the dad's there and he was like, Hey, let me talk to you.
• 54:47
  And he like threatens it. He like puts his hand up on his
• 54:49
  shoulder and shit. Justin doesn't die though, so
• 54:52
  we. Were right yeah, I completely
• 54:54
  forgot that part and the whole time the wife's just pissed like
• 54:58
  she's like you're really just that is a real fucking thing.
• 55:00
  I just told him you gotta do that.
• 55:01
  You're just, you just walk. He brings.
• 55:04
  The the map. Blueprint the blueprint of the
• 55:08
  like the it's the telephone towers at first, is what he's
• 55:11
  thinking right which? Sends you off.
• 55:14
  Right. And and it's the working behind
• 55:17
  the house or something like that, yeah.
• 55:19
  This is a marker like as a. As a yeah.
• 55:22
  That's it's so it's so weird set up because I think at first they
• 55:26
  try to make it seem like, oh, it's like a follow the telephone
• 55:30
  wires. Where do they intersect?
• 55:32
  And then he's like, Oh no, it's different than that.
• 55:34
  It's the fucking house, right? It's the house at the end of the
• 55:37
  goddamn street where everyone can see it.
• 55:41
  The. The very I just wanted to bring
• 55:42
  up one thing of another scene that I was really into the the
• 55:46
  fucking scene where all the kids chase Gladys.
• 55:48
  Yeah, I she gets she I was laughing hysterically.
• 55:52
  I did. I burst out fucking laughing.
• 55:54
  I didn't. I couldn't help it.
• 55:55
  The fucking scene. Is it where, Jackass?
• 55:58
  Yeah, where they're running through the fucking house.
• 56:01
  Random people's houses. Well, it was set up in the thing
• 56:03
  of like they were showing off a, they were showing off a new
• 56:06
  house to someone who was gonna buy it.
• 56:07
  Yeah. And they just had like join
• 56:09
  Oxford, breakthrough a fucking window and be chased by somebody
• 56:12
  else. I immediately went to a Jackass.
• 56:14
  Yeah, I was fucking crying. But did I?
• 56:16
  I felt like Eric Andre in a little bit like this seems like
• 56:19
  something Eric. Andre it, It felt so like.
• 56:23
  Normal. Not that like, just like it kind
• 56:26
  of felt like the people that were like in the house were
• 56:29
  actually just kind of chilling in their house.
• 56:31
  Like that acting was pretty good because it doesn't feel over the
• 56:35
  top, but it also doesn't feel too nonchalant.
• 56:37
  They're just like, what the fuck is going on?
• 56:41
  What's happening right? Now, in the scene where
• 56:45
  specifically she's she's already run to the front yard and they
• 56:50
  topple over the fucking the fence.
• 56:54
  But you can tell it's like adult actors because they just like
• 56:56
  land on them and shit and roll over.
• 56:58
  I think that's my favorite thing is the practical use.
• 57:01
  Yeah, there's not a lot of CGI in this film, I feel like.
• 57:05
  I feel like they had to use the kids that shot too because there
• 57:08
  is shots where kids are running and they use very wide shots and
• 57:12
  almost blurred the kids faces and so they didn't have to put
• 57:14
  kids likeness out there but also those kids are probably laughing
• 57:18
  and fucking. Because they're just, yeah.
• 57:21
  Hey, we're gonna get 17 and just chase this lady, you know what I
• 57:25
  mean? Like to me.
• 57:26
  Like you have to get to her Yeah, for fucking Fortnite V
• 57:29
  Bucks we're. Gonna make her look like this,
• 57:33
  but we're definitely sticking another freaking 8 year old here
• 57:37
  because yeah, this is gonna be able to like.
• 57:39
  That's you can shoot and be like, hey, kids, I don't want
• 57:41
  you to challenge the fact you're gonna RIP her apart limb from
• 57:43
  limb, but we want you to chat. Just chase her.
• 57:46
  Yeah. She has so much candy or she has
• 57:48
  like. Some look like a fun and it.
• 57:49
  Really didn't look like a good shot.
• 57:51
  When failure was trying to run home through all the yards and
• 57:54
  shit, I was like I was a fun scene.
• 57:56
  It's such a good, yeah. It's such a good, a feel good
• 57:59
  scene too, because you're like so scared for what could have
• 58:03
  happened to the kids. You know, you're like, shit, are
• 58:06
  they dead? And then you obviously you see
• 58:07
  them feeding them, but it's like, how much could that?
• 58:10
  And when Roland's Karen just came home, his kids still
• 58:12
  zombified like he. Just yeah.
• 58:14
  Yeah, yeah. Imagine being the dad.
• 58:16
  You see your kid, then you have to go upstairs and save
• 58:19
  whatever's happening to your kid.
• 58:21
  And then your kid leaves. And then you follow the path to
• 58:24
  your kid and your kids. One of 17 kids who just ripped a
• 58:28
  woman apart with their bare hands.
• 58:29
  Right, not Josh Brolin, the actual like the parents that
• 58:32
  have no idea what the fuck happened and they just fall.
• 58:35
  They're like. You just got your kids back.
• 58:38
  But hey, another layer to your kids coming back is they just
• 58:41
  ripped a random woman that we don't know who they are
• 58:44
  literally a part like a pack of wolves.
• 58:48
  It's crazy. Like they're bare hands.
• 58:50
  He doesn't even acknowledge it though, he just goes.
• 58:52
  Huh. He's just my child.
• 58:55
  He's still in protective mode because he's like, oh, there was
• 58:57
  something more supernatural here.
• 58:58
  I'm just going to get my kid and get the fuck out of Dodge.
• 59:00
  Right. And he does like he picks them
• 59:02
  up, right And then he just stands there and looks at all
• 59:04
  the kids. I think right is like the whole
• 59:06
  thing is he's like holding him. He's like, yeah, like what is
• 59:09
  going on? Like they.
• 59:10
  Just stopped like now what? Yeah, but he was.
• 59:12
  He was under her control. Remember?
• 59:15
  He attacks the teacher because fuck I forget if she gets his
• 59:21
  hair or she already has his hair or something.
• 59:24
  I don't know who he were. Talking about Josh Brolin the
• 59:27
  fucking the dad, the dad of he. Attacked what?
• 59:30
  Teacher. He attacks.
• 59:31
  There's a moment where he's under the spell too, while he's
• 59:35
  being here. No, it's the fucking cop.
• 59:37
  The cops attacking the teacher the whole time while they're in
• 59:39
  the house. The dad and the teacher go to
• 59:42
  the house. Dad fights Tweaker.
• 59:44
  Cops. The dad fights the tweaker and
• 59:46
  the cop fights the fucking. I don't remember their names.
• 59:49
  I suck at remembering the fucking names, Justine.
• 59:51
  Justine 'cause she pulls the James.
• 59:54
  She pulls the gun out of the out of the cops.
• 59:57
  The pollster. I don't know, I'm like.
• 59:59
  Yeah. He he, he, he and he fucking.
• 1:00:03
  Get on board. I know, but like, but yeah,
• 1:00:07
  Paul, Paul attacks Justine Paul the cop, right?
• 1:00:10
  Right, right. Attacks Justine James.
• 1:00:13
  I don't remember that. I'm sorry.
• 1:00:14
  That's the part, right? That's the part.
• 1:00:15
  OK, so when they're in the house, the when they're.
• 1:00:18
  In the Lily house. Yeah, Justine goes into the
• 1:00:21
  Lilies house because they. Oh yeah.
• 1:00:24
  OK, I'll. Tell you right in the house you
• 1:00:25
  remember they step over the salt.
• 1:00:27
  Yeah. Soon as they step over the salt
• 1:00:29
  things like she uses once again salt as a protection.
• 1:00:32
  If you cross that salt, you're in trouble.
• 1:00:33
  That's what it was, yeah. And the whole time I'm like,
• 1:00:36
  fuck, one of them's going to die or something.
• 1:00:38
  And then I think he kills the the the James, the the dad kills
• 1:00:43
  James, I think. The Tweaker The tweaker are
• 1:00:47
  fighting knocks him into the basement while he's on the
• 1:00:51
  staff. Yeah, you see all the kids, She.
• 1:00:53
  Pulls the holster out, shoots Paul because Paul she can't
• 1:00:56
  control it any otherwise. She shoots.
• 1:00:58
  Paul gets the gun shoots. James, James, there's.
• 1:01:02
  Then the parents then come after.
• 1:01:04
  Because they, he, the kids stepped over the salt, over the.
• 1:01:07
  Salt because he thought it was. The only way he was like the
• 1:01:10
  whole. Other thing too, past that point
• 1:01:11
  he's like, oh, you have my mom, the kids are here, there's shit
• 1:01:15
  going on downstairs. I've had it.
• 1:01:17
  So glad I fucking realizes. She realizes that.
• 1:01:22
  OK, Shit's going South. Yeah, Someone's got to come to
• 1:01:25
  the house. Yeah.
• 1:01:27
  So she, like, takes salt and puts it across her doorway.
• 1:01:30
  And I believe the parents are down the hallway.
• 1:01:34
  They're. Protecting her.
• 1:01:35
  She has the the salt at the downstairs with James and Paul
• 1:01:39
  and then in front of her doorway upstairs she has the kid, her
• 1:01:43
  parents, the kids parents like guard standing guard outside her
• 1:01:48
  doorway with like another 6 feet in between them and her.
• 1:01:51
  Door and. During the struggle of those two
• 1:01:54
  fighting downstairs, Gladys goes downstairs because now her
• 1:01:57
  doorway is open because the parents are chasing the child
• 1:02:00
  who is and they're trying to like shining their way through
• 1:02:02
  the door to get to him. She goes downstairs and during
• 1:02:05
  the struggle somehow gets the dad's hair.
• 1:02:08
  Brolin's character. Right, that's where that comes
• 1:02:11
  in and then she. Uses Brolin because she's like
• 1:02:13
  oh this dude's strong and fucking can handle themselves to
• 1:02:15
  kill them. Take.
• 1:02:16
  Out. Just hang out the teacher.
• 1:02:18
  Or Pauline, right? Justine Justine Paul was the
• 1:02:21
  boyfriend. That's their power couple name.
• 1:02:25
  Because once the kid then kill, once the kid has the stick snaps
• 1:02:29
  that the kids kill Gladys. Gladys's power is now broken
• 1:02:32
  because she's no longer a conduit to Brolin's character,
• 1:02:36
  and he snaps out of. It right, Right.
• 1:02:37
  Yeah. Fuck, because he's about to
• 1:02:39
  choke. Right, but he has now the kid.
• 1:02:41
  But he's like the only one that breaks out of it, I guess
• 1:02:44
  because it's so soon, right? Because it doesn't sit in that
• 1:02:48
  she's soaked any of his POW, any of his life source, I guess
• 1:02:51
  maybe. And he just snaps out of it.
• 1:02:53
  Yeah, but everyone else was like, fucking you.
• 1:02:56
  Could also attribute that to maybe his military mind where he
• 1:03:00
  once he snapped out he could recover quicker but the time
• 1:03:02
  frame wasn't there long enough for him to be drained of his
• 1:03:05
  life force right? Well, the last one here is fun
• 1:03:07
  facts and possible Easter eggs. Yeah.
• 1:03:12
  I think the bulging of the eyes thing, because I was saying too,
• 1:03:14
  like his head was the teeth. The Asian teacher's head was
• 1:03:16
  going to explode. Yeah.
• 1:03:17
  But I think that that's because of the damage he caused to his
• 1:03:20
  own brain and his son. He saw I.
• 1:03:22
  Had thought at first. How many times?
• 1:03:24
  Is like where he was smashing in his head on.
• 1:03:27
  His yeah, that should be a drinking game.
• 1:03:28
  How many times did the principal slam his fucking face off of a
• 1:03:32
  surface? Because he does it in the in the
• 1:03:34
  gas station too. Like several.
• 1:03:36
  Times the time 217 can possibly be a nod or is a nod to 217.
• 1:03:42
  In The Shining, Gladys's full origin story was filmed and cut
• 1:03:47
  for pacing. So there is an origin story that
• 1:03:49
  was cut from the movie. So maybe we get that.
• 1:03:53
  Director's cut later, it was already.
• 1:03:55
  In the film and then they were like so that could be also why
• 1:03:58
  they want to do the prequel as well.
• 1:04:00
  That would make more sense for sure.
• 1:04:02
  The structure is inspired by Mongolian prisoners.
• 1:04:06
  I never seen that movie, but that's what it says here.
• 1:04:08
  Marketing used fake local news website, so the realistic
• 1:04:13
  footage fooled people. I I, I don't know nothing about
• 1:04:15
  the marketing of this movie, so I didn't see any of.
• 1:04:17
  That I didn't see much marketing other than weapons.
• 1:04:20
  Oh, it was the kids. It was the kids running out
• 1:04:22
  doing the airplane thing. The Naru.
• 1:04:25
  Yeah. Warner Brothers has confirmed
• 1:04:27
  Gladys prequel is coming. Of those tribute bids, what what
• 1:04:31
  hits hardest for you? The shining tie in the viral
• 1:04:33
  marketing or the Gladys reboot that we kind of talked about at
• 1:04:36
  AG Nauseam. I really don't.
• 1:04:38
  I didn't know about The Shining thing.
• 1:04:40
  Like, I didn't know if that was like a genuine thing or if
• 1:04:43
  that's just like, because there's a lot of shit that
• 1:04:44
  people have put online about the film and I'm like, that doesn't
• 1:04:47
  sound. So I don't know the way that I
• 1:04:49
  was looking at the the whole 217.
• 1:04:51
  OK, ready. You ready?
• 1:04:52
  I'm going to take y'all down a little shrimp.
• 1:04:54
  First of all, the things starts at 2:17, right?
• 1:04:57
  The you we've already talked about the teacher Justine having
• 1:05:02
  a nightmare with the witch in it, and then the other, the dad.
• 1:05:08
  Yep, just Brolin's name. I.
• 1:05:10
  Don't know what is his name. Fuck.
• 1:05:11
  I'm going to look it up now and I'm going to feel like.
• 1:05:14
  It's something graph, right? Mcgraph or something.
• 1:05:17
  Mcguff. Mcguff.
• 1:05:18
  Maybe graph? I feel like, let's go back to
• 1:05:20
  anyway, I'm going to be like. Josh Brolin's character and the
• 1:05:22
  weapons. He also was having nightmares or
• 1:05:25
  like, foreshadowing, right? Of her, Yeah, of her at 2:17 in
• 1:05:29
  the morning. But there's two people who've
• 1:05:31
  seen them and 17 kids go missing.
• 1:05:35
  Right. Interesting 2 ratio 2 to 17.
• 1:05:38
  I was thinking that. Or them two against the. 17 I
• 1:05:41
  was thinking that or the teacher and the and the student are the
• 1:05:45
  only ones that didn't go missing.
• 1:05:46
  Out of 17. And that was that was like my
• 1:05:48
  thought process was like 2 out. Of two out of. 2 again. 17
• 1:05:55
  Archer was his name Archer. Yeah, he.
• 1:05:58
  Could he could put a live action Archer?
• 1:06:00
  Yeah, fucking crazy. Here's what it was.
• 1:06:05
  No, no, yeah, it just confirms what I said already.
• 1:06:09
  Another reason why I stay away from a lot of that fan theory
• 1:06:12
  shit, like I like it sometimes and sometimes I don't is I'm a
• 1:06:16
  pro wrestling fan. Obviously this whole channel is
• 1:06:18
  very pro wrestling and wrestling fans with the Bray Wyatt shit
• 1:06:22
  was annoying. Yeah, that's kind of crazy.
• 1:06:24
  They were. Booking things that I don't even
• 1:06:25
  think Bray Wyatt himself were even into.
• 1:06:28
  And the wrestling fan base kind of wrote their own story and
• 1:06:32
  then to kind of put that into a pop culture.
• 1:06:34
  I think the biggest fan theory TV show where everyone booked
• 1:06:38
  their own ending and didn't get what they wanted at all and then
• 1:06:40
  wrote the whole show off as garbage.
• 1:06:41
  And that pissed me off because the show was so good was fucking
• 1:06:44
  Wanda Vision. Wanda Vision was a it's so Wanda
• 1:06:49
  Vision at the time when it was coming out because Marvel was
• 1:06:52
  like, no, no, no, we're not going to give you every episode.
• 1:06:54
  We're going to make you wait every week, which I thought was
• 1:06:56
  fucking awesome. I hate it so much that's why I
• 1:06:59
  only watch. Season 1, because every week
• 1:07:02
  everyone's like, it's Mephisto, it's Mephisto, it's this, it's
• 1:07:05
  that, it's this, and they got none of it.
• 1:07:07
  And they're like, well, that fucking whole show sucked.
• 1:07:09
  I'm like, no, Wanda Vision was excellent.
• 1:07:11
  You just didn't get what you wanted on somebody else's art
• 1:07:14
  project. Fuck yourself.
• 1:07:16
  Wrestling fans do that too. Like, well, it wasn't booked the
• 1:07:18
  way I would have booked that and I'm guilty of it.
• 1:07:20
  Sometimes I'm just like, that doesn't really make a lot of
• 1:07:22
  sense. I'll see how it plays out.
• 1:07:23
  And then nine times out of 10 they don't play it out anyway.
• 1:07:25
  They're just like, oh, the next one you're like, you fuck.
• 1:07:28
  I just feel like as far as like films go and stuff like that or
• 1:07:32
  like books or anything like that.
• 1:07:34
  And I guess wrestling too, I've learned through music that like
• 1:07:39
  writing in the broadest way possible is the best way to
• 1:07:42
  reach every type of fucking audience.
• 1:07:44
  So never having an actual bulletin for whatever it is that
• 1:07:48
  you're trying to get across is ideal.
• 1:07:51
  And so like, I think that's kind of why there's the whole 217
• 1:07:55
  thing, why no one knows why they don't answer it.
• 1:07:57
  Because apparently from the from the interviews I've seen, Zach
• 1:08:02
  was like, oh, I wrote like the entire first half of the film.
• 1:08:06
  And then from there I didn't really know where I was going.
• 1:08:09
  So they filmed like the first half of the movie.
• 1:08:12
  And as they were filming my first half, he's like, fuck, I
• 1:08:15
  got it. Really.
• 1:08:15
  You know, So that's. Why people, the outside people
• 1:08:18
  like, bro, he's a genius. He had this all structured and
• 1:08:21
  he's like, Nah man, I was winging it.
• 1:08:23
  Yeah, pretty much. And I love that there's nothing
• 1:08:25
  wrong with that and doesn't discredit his art.
• 1:08:27
  No, for sure. And I think that's that's why
• 1:08:29
  it's so cool that he has like a sketch comedy background.
• 1:08:33
  But he wrote one of the greatest horror films of this this year.
• 1:08:38
  In my opinion. As far as like stories go,
• 1:08:40
  horror films have not had great. Stories.
• 1:08:42
  I would say Sinister is really good.
• 1:08:45
  No sinister. Yes or no sinners?
• 1:08:49
  Sinners, I haven't watched. Everyone's saying sinners is
• 1:08:51
  tough. It could be, yeah, yeah, it
• 1:08:53
  could be. It's.
• 1:08:54
  Tough or good like tough? Tough is new.
• 1:08:56
  Tough is. New which one you're saying now?
• 1:08:57
  Because listen, it depends on what culture you're around
• 1:09:01
  today. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:09:02
  Is it lit enough for me though? Yeah, sorry, I'm capping.
• 1:09:06
  I don't know anyway, if bumpers left you shaking, here's some
• 1:09:11
  things you can check out Barbarian.
• 1:09:13
  What was Craig's first breakout film?
• 1:09:15

  and support you. You can find me on Instagram,
• 1:11:14
  Spotify, I don't know Spotify, I don't know about Spotify.
• 1:11:18
  Right now I'm on Spotify, but should I be?
• 1:11:21
  Why every No, no, no, it's all good.
• 1:11:27
  No, Spotify is just not a great company right now and hasn't
• 1:11:30
  been so, you know, debating on if I should drop off.
• 1:11:33
  There's a lot of things where it's like people want to be on
• 1:11:35
  band camp right now because it's just like supporting an artist
• 1:11:39
  at the bottom is like. Impossible.
• 1:11:41
  I get you. Yeah, Let me hear you.
• 1:11:42
  Let me just let me break. I understand sometimes people
• 1:11:45
  are on this like let's fight the man and fight the establishment.
• 1:11:49
  We don't have the luxury. Yeah, we don't have the ability
• 1:11:51
  to do that if you want to stay. Broke and not reach out of this
• 1:11:55
  fucking school, county, mine state and playing his shows in
• 1:11:58
  Pilgrim. Nothing wrong with playing his
• 1:11:59
  shows, but if you want to grow, you got to be on the platforms.
• 1:12:03
  Do I like Walmart? Do I like fucking Amazon?
• 1:12:06
  Do I like these? No, but it's fucking there.
• 1:12:09
  It's embedded. There's nothing we're going to
• 1:12:11
  do about it. Yeah.
• 1:12:12
  Don't remove yourself from the biggest platform for people to
• 1:12:15
  listen to you because you want to be with the fall punk scene
• 1:12:18
  and fucking be on band camp. There's nothing wrong with
• 1:12:20
  somebody. That live their life there's.
• 1:12:22
  Nothing wrong with band camp. I like band camp because they
• 1:12:24
  can actually pay the artist directly.
• 1:12:26
  I think it's a great service, but don't fucking make your net
• 1:12:30
  smaller because you're not. Definitely killing accessibility
• 1:12:33
  is probably don't worry. Not wrong, but also.
• 1:12:38
  I'm not ever going to do it though, like now, But you have
• 1:12:42
  to state it. You have to say it.
• 1:12:44
  I don't. I don't like it.
• 1:12:46
  Yeah, I don't know. It is tough right now because
• 1:12:49
  there's so many fucking people in in the industry that'll
• 1:12:53
  ultimately could cancel themselves, but they'll shame
• 1:12:56
  you for it. But it's like you're doing it
• 1:12:57
  dumb ass like. But anyway, you can find me on
• 1:13:01
  everything as the converse kid, no spaces.
• 1:13:04
  I think on Instagram it's like underscores.
• 1:13:07
  Yeah, it's the under score, converse, under score kid.
• 1:13:11
  Maybe I'll get sued for that one day.
• 1:13:14
  But I have a tour coming up in November, so be on the lookout
• 1:13:18
  for that. It's going to be fun.
• 1:13:21
  Next weekend, Sir, you and I will both.
• 1:13:23
  Be. Oh yeah, somewhere.
• 1:13:25
  Yeah. I don't know if it's gonna air
• 1:13:26
  by then though. Ohh shit really you son of a
• 1:13:29
  bitch, We're. We're recording ahead of time.
• 1:13:31
  I'm. Trying to get a bank?
• 1:13:32
  Well, if you have a week last week, next week, last week, if
• 1:13:36
  you have a time machine, Pink Moon collective October 18th.
• 1:13:42
  I didn't book anything for this this month.
• 1:13:44
  I don't have a lot to fucking go off of because I was like I got
• 1:13:48
  booked. Oh so.
• 1:13:48
  Yeah, I'm double booked and he's also booked he's.
• 1:13:50
  Got booked for a wrestling job. Oh shit, who are you with at?
• 1:13:53
  That new era for wrestling wants me to come in and do a.
• 1:13:56
  Renounce. Oh, that's rad.
• 1:13:57
  Yeah, I feel like I've heard of them.
• 1:13:59
  I used to work. With them and then I we caught
• 1:14:01
  up on. One worked with them up in
• 1:14:03
  Scranton. They were the ones who sponsored
• 1:14:07
  the vape people sponsored. Their oh shit, yeah, OK, the
• 1:14:10
  union vapor thing at that yeah other.
• 1:14:12
  Good company, have no beef or anything but we kind of went our
• 1:14:15
  own ways and they asked me to come in and help them with some
• 1:14:16
  ring announcers so so why not? That's sweet.
• 1:14:19
  Yeah. Hell yeah.
• 1:14:20
  What do you want to plug? I will also be at the Pink Moon
• 1:14:24
  Collective that the following week I will not be anywhere.
• 1:14:32
  But yeah, I'm just, I'm doing the crafting thing.
• 1:14:36
  I'm making potion pads and. Which are really rad.
• 1:14:41
  I never thought quilting thought of that as.
• 1:14:43
  To be a thing, I like these things.
• 1:14:46
  You can fold them up and take them with you.
• 1:14:48
  Like if you're like anything, yeah, I like it a lot.
• 1:14:51
  You can wash them. Yeah, they're washable.
• 1:14:55
  Sweet. And insulated so they actually
• 1:14:57
  don't leave a ring. Like, 'cause I like my yarn
• 1:15:00
  ones. I like, I like the crocheted
• 1:15:02
  look of coasters. Like I don't actually have one
• 1:15:05
  sitting here behind me. I hate me anyway.
• 1:15:07
  But. The tiny holes.
• 1:15:10
  With the little holes in it, when you have condensation,
• 1:15:13
  it'll still seep through and like obviously they yarn the
• 1:15:16
  carpets some of that, but some of it it won't yeah and like so
• 1:15:19
  the the crochet ones are good for like warm stuff still.
• 1:15:22
  But as far as like if you have something with condensation, it
• 1:15:25
  has that little bit of padding in it, so it like soaks it up
• 1:15:28
  and absorbs it and then it. Is the condensation the problem
• 1:15:31
  or just the bottom of the glass leaving an imprint?
• 1:15:35
  I never understood that. It's the condensation is coming
• 1:15:38
  from the outside and then it sticks like it goes.
• 1:15:40
  It drips down to the bottom and then it sits under the ring and
• 1:15:44
  it holds. Like it wouldn't leave an indent
• 1:15:46
  if there was no condensation. Right, so the coaster stopping
• 1:15:49
  the water the surface from touching the surface, but the
• 1:15:53
  water itself getting on the table is not a huge deal.
• 1:15:55
  No, that is the. Deal.
• 1:15:56
  It does stop the water too. Yeah, the problem is the water
• 1:15:59
  touching the table is soaking into the wood or whatever it is
• 1:16:02
  that's. Yeah, So even if it wasn't,
• 1:16:04
  you're. Preventing.
• 1:16:05
  Sorry, but you're preventing the ring from the can or glass on
• 1:16:09
  the thing, not so much the water spillage.
• 1:16:11
  Both. You're doing both.
• 1:16:13
  Who cares if it's a ring? I care about the ring.
• 1:16:16
  The ring is OK. So hold up.
• 1:16:18
  Pause, Pause. Pause, Pause.
• 1:16:19
  Pause. Tony does this well.
• 1:16:25
  I just touch myself. And we will.
• 1:16:27
  Wheel the basement after the music by the Converse kid.
• 1:16:30
  Here's the problem. We're going to have some bonus
• 1:16:32
  content for you guys before the cameras roll, and then we're
• 1:16:34
  going to do a little bonus thing for you guys after.
• 1:16:36
  Yeah, we'll start right back this call for a bit, I promise.
• 1:16:40
  Here's about the conference, kid.
• 1:16:41
  We'll see you later. Like.
• 1:17:12
  I don't even remember what I ate.
• 1:17:14
  Literally the doctor was asking me this morning, when's the last
• 1:17:16
  time you ate or drank something? And I was like, boy.
• 1:17:21
  Do you eat dinner at a point? At a go.
• 1:17:22
  Fuck, what is last time I ate? And then at the very, very end,
• 1:17:26
  so this is what I'm going to do, too.
• 1:17:28
  So remember the old school pop cult, the old school not going
• 1:17:30
  high school where it's like, hey, what else have you been
• 1:17:32
  into or watching or like stuff like that?
• 1:17:34
  I still want to do that. Yeah.
• 1:17:35
  So once we stop the episode, like, hey, this is it.
• 1:17:37
  That's the end of the topic. The music hits your music and
• 1:17:42
  then and then it's and then it's we cut almost like a mini
• 1:17:48
  episode where it's like 1520 minutes and just like, hey, this
• 1:17:50
  is what I've been into. This is some music I'm listening
• 1:17:52
  to stuff like that. And then any albums come in like
• 1:17:55
  if you want to, if you just want to come for album reviews as
• 1:17:58
  well, that's in like, so I know she wants, I told her I'll do
• 1:18:01
  some sleep token stuff with her. She wants to cover sleep token.
• 1:18:04
  And then every week we can kind of rotate, like you pick a band,
• 1:18:07
  I pick a band, she picks a band. And then we can kind of do like
• 1:18:09
  a thing where it's like, oh, it's release free this week,
• 1:18:12
  let's do an album review. That'd be rad.
• 1:18:15
  I'm down. What do you think the odds are
• 1:18:17
  that AI will pick up a skull and think it's a face?
• 1:18:21
  Pretty likely. Nah.
• 1:18:23
  No, that was Nah. You're fine.
• 1:18:25
  You're fine. Head, it gets head all the time.
• 1:18:27
  But listen, there's a lot on your shoulder.
• 1:18:32
  Yeah, so. Can we just move that back a
• 1:18:35
  little further? How can you see?
• 1:18:37
  Oh, you got the screen on your side?
• 1:18:38
  Yeah. Because I I use it for the time
• 1:18:40
  cubes and stamps to make sure it's recording.
• 1:18:42
  That's really. Good, I've got it more in the
• 1:18:44
  shot instead of less. In.
• 1:18:49
  The shot? Perfect.
• 1:18:50
  Good. Gucci.
• 1:18:52
  There you go, ambiance. Billy's is still way in the
• 1:18:57
  shot. You want me to move it?
• 1:18:59
  I got it because I don't want to.
• 1:19:02
  I want it in the shot, but I also don't want it to turn you
• 1:19:05
  completely red. There So like just hitting the
• 1:19:08
  backlight like a back shot, the back shot.
• 1:19:14
  Very good. It's just it's face tracking.
• 1:19:17
  Yeah, it'll be. I think it'll be fun.
• 1:19:20
  Hi, Ziggy, Welcome to the upstairs that you've never come
• 1:19:23
  up to. You can pull a tighter shot on
• 1:19:29
  Billy. How How does my hair look from
• 1:19:32
  that angle? I forgot my hair.
• 1:19:36
  Yeah, I forgot. I forgot my hat.
• 1:19:39
  I forgot my hat in the car as I parked on the side of your
• 1:19:43
  house. I was like, am I in the right
• 1:19:44
  place? Feels like a fucking horror
• 1:19:46
  movie. No.
• 1:19:54
  Cameras are rolling, so please don't smoke right now.
• 1:19:56
  Did you already smoke? I just hit my face.
• 1:19:59
  Oh, babes are fine. That's fine.
• 1:20:01
  She's just. Like I don't have anything to
• 1:20:04
  smooth. Would you like one of the?
• 1:20:08
  Would you like heroin? Yeah.
• 1:20:10
  All right. Three are starting the episode
• 1:20:16
  right now for the movie Weapons from 2025.
• 1:20:22
  Three. All right, the coaster, we're
• 1:20:25
  back. Coaster.
• 1:20:26
  OK, here's the understanding man.
• 1:20:28
  I'm not getting that the coaster catches the water at this point.
• 1:20:32
  The coaster catches the water, yes.
• 1:20:34
  I'm aware of that. And also stops the imprint.
• 1:20:37
  But why are you put? But the imprint is why most
• 1:20:39
  people say please put a coaster down.
• 1:20:41
  I don't want rings on my tables. Because of the.
• 1:20:44
  Yeah, because. Of the water, but because the
• 1:20:47
  ring itself if you were to have it on wood like if it was on
• 1:20:50
  this right, I agree with you the water would warp the the ring
• 1:20:54
  itself would be warped and you wouldn't get rid of that it's
• 1:20:57
  not a wipeable the water is gone and now the ring is gone.
• 1:21:00
  It's the fact that the water. So blue, right?
• 1:21:02
  Now. And I'm so blue.
• 1:21:05
  I'm just also worried about the visual.
• 1:21:07
  Yeah. So what I'm saying is you're
• 1:21:09
  saying your, your, your crocheted ones, the water will
• 1:21:13
  still seep through and get to the table.
• 1:21:15
  And I said, I don't think that's as much of a problem because
• 1:21:18
  you're still buffering the bottom of the glass and item
• 1:21:21
  that you're sitting on the coaster from hitting the table.
• 1:21:23
  So you're not getting the ring. Yeah, you're still getting the
• 1:21:26
  water down. I understand, but like at a bar
• 1:21:28
  they're not caring if the bar gets shit spilled on it, they're
• 1:21:31
  not carrying. It right because bars haven't
• 1:21:33
  been made out of wood since the 1800s.
• 1:21:35
  I get that, but in general, like even the Pilgrim's Bar is made
• 1:21:38
  out of like concrete. They don't want the ring from
• 1:21:41
  the glass. They don't.
• 1:21:42
  Care about a ring. They don't want the stickiness.
• 1:21:44
  Kilgaroo doesn't care about a ring on the.
• 1:21:48
  Bar, it's a, it's a, it's a spectrum.
• 1:21:55
  Essentially is water wet or is like do you?
• 1:21:58
  No, you're it's not just like coasters aren't just for water.
• 1:22:02
  Coasters are to like stop spillage like but.
• 1:22:05
  What she's saying is with the crocheted one, it wasn't
• 1:22:08
  catching. So this is better, right?
• 1:22:10
  Because it's soaking. Anything in?
• 1:22:12
  Yeah, my argument was are you more worried about the
• 1:22:15
  condensation hitting the table? Are you more worried about the
• 1:22:17
  ring that the? Neither.
• 1:22:19
  I don't care about the ring, I care about water.
• 1:22:21
  My. Whole life has been a coaster of
• 1:22:23
  the. Ring on my table the whole point
• 1:22:25
  of the coasters to stop wetness from hitting the surface.
• 1:22:29
  Okay. And most coasters.
• 1:22:30
  Are made in ring form in droplet form in splash.
• 1:22:34
  Form, I guess just wetness, my surface, my life has.
• 1:22:37
  Cushion in between. Fucking don't leave a ring.
• 1:22:40
  Don't leave a ring. The rings over the issue.
• 1:22:42
  The ring was what the problem. Was yeah, but the only way it
• 1:22:45
  would leave the. Design did not have the.
• 1:22:47
  Ring, right. The only way it would leave the
• 1:22:48
  ring is if there was condensation, like a warm yeah.
• 1:22:53
  But like what I'm saying is, if a little condensation gets
• 1:22:55
  outside, you're more still protecting the bottom of the can
• 1:22:57
  or glass from leaving the ring because the coaster's still.
• 1:23:00
  OK, so I'm gonna I'm gonna take you down a second separate path.
• 1:23:04
  Now what? If you had a hot cup.
• 1:23:06
  OK, yeah, so you're gonna if you have a hot cup mug and you have
• 1:23:12
  that mug has like a concave right or convex on the on the
• 1:23:16
  bottom of it. So it's.
• 1:23:18
  Also going to have the ring right?
• 1:23:20
  You will. Still have a ring that's not
• 1:23:22
  coming from the outside, it's only being suctioned on the
• 1:23:24
  inside. So the coaster another reason.
• 1:23:26
  For the coaster is for that heat to not warp your wood as well.
• 1:23:31
  You can still get a ring without having wetness on the.
• 1:23:34
  Outside and also so that you don't then pick up the drink,
• 1:23:36
  put your arm down where it was and then burn yourself.
• 1:23:39
  There you go. Yeah, so another pause.
• 1:23:42
  Content. We all, we like to take the
• 1:23:45
  second to talk about things that we're watching and that we're
• 1:23:47
  into anything music, pop culture.
• 1:23:51
  Hell yeah. Actually, where this is the
• 1:23:52
  horror. Episode.
• 1:23:54
  Have you seen any other horror stuff?
• 1:23:56
  I've I watched Good boy. Oh yeah, that's right.
• 1:23:59
  Yeah. Y'all spoiling y'all watch that,
• 1:24:01
  I want to see it. Yeah, you do.
• 1:24:04
  Without spoiling, it's great. It's a really good horror movie.
• 1:24:08
  I think it does a lot more at the same.
• 1:24:13
  I think it does a lot more of the same of weapons, where gore
• 1:24:16
  isn't necessarily a thing that happens.
• 1:24:19
  It's not. Oversaturated.
• 1:24:20
  Yeah. It's not how everyone knows the
• 1:24:21
  premise of the movie and then people are hating the movie
• 1:24:24
  because they didn't like the premise that's been told to the
• 1:24:27
  entire time. Yeah, they're like, there's
• 1:24:28
  nothing really happening. It's just from the perspective
• 1:24:30
  of a dog. Yeah, no shit.
• 1:24:32
  That's. What you.
• 1:24:33
  And that's also a lie. A lot happens.
• 1:24:35
  So yeah. But I will say I don't wanna
• 1:24:41
  spoil it, but I feel like it's necessary.
• 1:24:44
  The dog doesn't die. Yes.
• 1:24:46
  I will say that the. Director even came out and.
• 1:24:48
  Said that there is a dead dog. There is a there.
• 1:24:52
  Is a dog. But the main character Dog isn't
• 1:24:55
  Yes. Gotcha.
• 1:24:56
  Yes, and there is depictions of not animal cruelty but
• 1:25:05
  definitely endangerment. So.
• 1:25:08
  So if that's something, I think that I think those are fair
• 1:25:11
  warnings, you know you. Know is.
• 1:25:12
  That like animal violence? I'm trying to more.
• 1:25:15
  Cruelty like we're not killing the dog, but is there like
• 1:25:18
  animal abuse? Kind of yeah, Kind of.
• 1:25:21
  Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's hinted at but not
• 1:25:23
  visualized. And it's it's a really good
• 1:25:25
  telling. I mean, it made me like after
• 1:25:27
  the movie I was like, shit, I need to be more kind to my cats.
• 1:25:30
  Like not like in in The thing is like I don't even do like, I
• 1:25:34
  guess I just don't do anything with my cats.
• 1:25:36
  I'm like, I need to do more stuff with my cats.
• 1:25:38
  Like you know what I mean? This movie gives me like Courage
• 1:25:40
  the cowardly vibe. Dogs.
• 1:25:45
  Yeah, I know. Yeah, sorry.
• 1:25:46
  We're I always have the theory that what what Courage was
• 1:25:49
  seeing wasn't real, right? Courage was seeing things that
• 1:25:53
  the dogs can see and humans can't, right.
• 1:25:56
  He's always like, would you chill the fuck out?
• 1:25:59
  Like the dog barking, like going crazy.
• 1:26:01
  We don't know what the dog receiving.
• 1:26:04
  I'm trying to watch. TV, shut the fuck up.
• 1:26:10
  And I also think in the same way as I'm like,
• 1:26:32
  no, you're good. I'm just saying like, I
• 1:26:34
  definitely feel like what good boy does.
• 1:26:37
  And here's the thing too. It was not written to be an A
• 1:26:40
  theatrical release. It was written as a like for a
• 1:26:43
  Film Festival. So even taking that into mind,
• 1:26:46
  like, fuck, this is a good movie.
• 1:26:48
  And the fact that they someone backed it enough to get it to
• 1:26:52
  play in theaters, you know, not long after.
• 1:26:55
  It was pretty long after, actually.
• 1:26:57
  Four years, like film directors and stuff are getting shots.
• 1:26:59
  Yeah. But I do think that keeping that
• 1:27:03
  in mind and realizing, oh, this is a low budget kind of film, it
• 1:27:08
  makes it that much more impressive the shots that they
• 1:27:10
  pull off and it I'm pretty sure a majority of it's like
• 1:27:13
  practical. There's some like CGI stuff, but
• 1:27:15
  like I've just been on the the go with like anything practical
• 1:27:20
  lately. I don't know if it has to do
• 1:27:21
  with the ties towards the the like war family section or
• 1:27:25
  whatever, but it definitely is like I'm more so excuse me
• 1:27:29
  fucking hey, what the hell? I am more so inclined to watch a
• 1:27:31
  film that's all practical based effects with like just a hint of
• 1:27:35
  CG that like, you know, like maybe like a blur, yeah, or
• 1:27:39
  something. Yeah, absolutely.
• 1:27:40
  I think practical effects are for, I like, I like practical
• 1:27:42
  makeup. I like practical stuff like
• 1:27:45
  that, like. I like art.
• 1:27:46
  Where it's just like, oh cool, you can, you can make the
• 1:27:49
  monster in CGI or we could we could put prosthetics.
• 1:27:52
  On it's still The thing is though, like is I guess for me
• 1:27:54
  with CGI is like it is very important I.
• 1:27:56
  Appreciate both if that makes sense.
• 1:27:57
  Yeah, well, because it's still time consuming.
• 1:27:59
  It's not like you just fucking. There's a difference between AI
• 1:28:03
  and CGI, and that's like a whole fucking conversation that people
• 1:28:07
  have to have. But AI is in everything.
• 1:28:10
  AI isn't just ChatGPT. Yeah, AI is in everything.
• 1:28:14
  That's. What the That's what the
• 1:28:15
  battle's supposed to be against, but people like, don't realize
• 1:28:18
  that. Like there's the.
• 1:28:18
  You're fighting ChatGPT Yeah, when AI is on the phone that
• 1:28:22
  you're making the post on, on the platform you're being a post
• 1:28:25
  on, on the fucking server, you're like you you are
• 1:28:28
  complaining about chat, GPGP, GPT on a device and a platform
• 1:28:35
  that is 1000% run by AI on an algorithm that is built into the
• 1:28:40
  blank. There's so many layers that and
• 1:28:42
  if. You'd like to call someone you
• 1:28:43
  can sit on a Tele. What is it called?
• 1:28:45
  Teleprompt like which is also. I I understand that there is
• 1:28:51
  cultural and there's environmental effects that are
• 1:28:54
  happening because we're building these things for a.
• 1:28:56
  Well, that's the problem, right? It's the abundance.
• 1:29:00
  Sure of it. This is where, yes, maybe we are
• 1:29:03
  having a problem where it's killing water supplies and power
• 1:29:06
  supplies and this and that. But now as a country, we need to
• 1:29:10
  figure out ways to then ramp up the water ramp up everything
• 1:29:14
  else. We need to make it so small
• 1:29:17
  towns like this whose Internet is not and water supply and
• 1:29:20
  everything sucks because we're still on fucking pipes and
• 1:29:23
  things that are from the 1800s and night, you know what I mean?
• 1:29:26
  And fucking New York City has upgraded in their
• 1:29:28
  infrastructure. We need to then build our
• 1:29:31
  infrastructure up to match what's then coming to make us
• 1:29:34
  more technology sound. It's not.
• 1:29:36
  Let's get rid of the technology. It's.
• 1:29:38
  Not utilizing tool that you're given, not fucking you destroy
• 1:29:42
  the tool that is there. Like there's no, there's no need
• 1:29:46
  to fucking do your scream in my background.
• 1:29:49
  Like that's just not necessary once you get to go to Photoshop
• 1:29:53
  for two seconds or like a picture app and fucking do it.
• 1:29:56
  Like it's just like it's those small things are the things that
• 1:29:59
  a lot of people are bothered by. But instead of stating that,
• 1:30:02
  they're just like Abolish. AI and it's like you don't know
• 1:30:04
  what the. Fuck, you're talking.
• 1:30:06
  About is like the podcast podcast and go away tomorrow
• 1:30:08
  because AI you literally tell AI to make you a podcast that you
• 1:30:11
  can listen to based on. Something sure.
• 1:30:12
  There's no. Tell me a story.
• 1:30:13
  Yeah. Yeah, exactly you.
• 1:30:14
  Can literally say AII need a thumbnail and artwork for this
• 1:30:17
  and you're killing local artists you music.
• 1:30:21
  Hey AI make me have I want to hear this song sang by this song
• 1:30:26
  and this theme. And this and it makes and and.
• 1:30:28
  You don't have a fucking. I think the tough thing too is a
• 1:30:31
  lot of people will make that argument.
• 1:30:34
  The artist thing, right? A lot of people make that
• 1:30:36
  argument. They won't even pay an artist
• 1:30:40
  and they won't even do it themselves.
• 1:30:41
  So it's like it's a struggle, right?
• 1:30:43
  Because it's like I'm not good with my fucking hands and shit
• 1:30:46
  like that. But if I I think in theory, like
• 1:30:48
  if I could Draw Something and then be like, hey, can you like
• 1:30:52
  just refine the edges, not like make a whole new picture.
• 1:30:55
  What the fuck is the problem with that?
• 1:30:57
  You know, or like, can you show me how to do that?
• 1:31:01
  Utilize it as a tool, not as a. Fucking as your crutch.
• 1:31:04
  There's a lot of content creators who are who are taking
• 1:31:07
  all of the a lot of their work and making AI do a lot of it,
• 1:31:11
  and they're just sitting back doing nothing.
• 1:31:12
  And then it's, it's one of those things where like, remember in
• 1:31:15
  like middle school? And they're like, can you cite
• 1:31:18
  your work? And then like, everyone's going
• 1:31:20
  to go back and cite their fucking script.
• 1:31:23
  And it's going to be the same shit.
• 1:31:25
  Yeah. It's going to be like Tommy did
• 1:31:27
  this and then Sydney did the same fucking thing.
• 1:31:30
  Like, yeah. But the realistic thing is if
• 1:31:32
  you tell a class full of kids this, fucking give me a report
• 1:31:35
  on fucking how much of Adolf Hitler.
• 1:31:38
  I mean that's a great more kids should learn about him so they
• 1:31:40
  see his blueprint is being used. Like if any historical person, I
• 1:31:45
  need three of us to do the same report on this.
• 1:31:48
  Well, the only thing that's going to make that report
• 1:31:50
  different is your human brain's version of what you took from
• 1:31:56
  that research. What what they did historically
• 1:31:59
  isn't going to change. Right.
• 1:32:00
  It's how you word it, how your your phrasing.
• 1:32:04
  Yeah, phrasing is to. Pull the curtain back What the
• 1:32:08
  the how I break things down in segments and everything that's
• 1:32:11
  AI help me write that. I'm not a good writer.
• 1:32:13
  I struggle with writing and then when I try to write things down,
• 1:32:16
  I forget what I'm trying to do and I I'm using AI as a tool to
• 1:32:19
  help me show your words, structure my content.
• 1:32:23
  But then also because I struggle as these things also if I went
• 1:32:27
  and also if I want to take the next step in my career with
• 1:32:30
  reading off a teleprompter or doing voice acting work, I need
• 1:32:33
  to get better at reading out loud.
• 1:32:35
  Growing up, I used to fucking have anxiety being in class and
• 1:32:38
  like Tony, read this chapter in front of the class.
• 1:32:40
  I'd rather fucking kill myself than fucking do that.
• 1:32:43
  Now I'm doing it all my content. Like I think I was good for a
• 1:32:46
  long time, just fucking going off the cuff.
• 1:32:48
  But then I feel like we would lose the structure of the topic
• 1:32:51
  of the episode. And then people be like, I'm not
• 1:32:53
  watching this because I tuned in for this episode and you're
• 1:32:56
  talking for 35 minutes. About something else.
• 1:32:58
  Yeah, and this is where the second, the bonus content at the
• 1:33:01
  end is where I can throw that in.
• 1:33:02
  Now am I using AI? Sure.
• 1:33:04
  But my thumbnails, everything I'm doing there, that's done by
• 1:33:07
  me. I couldn't tell.
• 1:33:09
  Would it be? I was there in a bit.
• 1:33:10
  I was like, are you serious? I thought that was everything
• 1:33:13
  else. My.
• 1:33:14
  Content. No Editing.
• 1:33:15
  I'm not a strong editor. I'm still learning.
• 1:33:17
  And I had to. I was using a program called Cap
• 1:33:19
  Cut. Cap Cut changed so drastically
• 1:33:22
  it doesn't run on my computer anymore.
• 1:33:23
  So I went to Adobe. Now I found a program and an add
• 1:33:26
  on in Adobe that I can drop these three cameras in.
• 1:33:30
  Say this camera's me and Lily, this camera's Billy, this
• 1:33:32
  camera's all three of us, right? It takes that footage and
• 1:33:36
  fucking lines it up. Lines everything up.
• 1:33:38
  But then also says Billy's talking.
• 1:33:40
  Cut to Billy's camera. Right.
• 1:33:41
  And that's utilizing it in a way that actually fucking is helpful
• 1:33:45
  and not just like, you know, I mean editing a.
• 1:33:48
  Podcast because I have a 40 hour week job to do.
• 1:33:51
  I have a relationship to maintain.
• 1:33:52
  I'm someone who didn't maintain a relationship and friendships
• 1:33:56
  and everything because I sat on a table and did everything.
• 1:33:58
  Like so yes, am I using AI to help with my editing?
• 1:34:00
  Sure. But I'm also now using that time
• 1:34:03
  that I'm not putting into all that to fucking be with humans
• 1:34:07
  and be and be with my partner and enjoy stuff.
• 1:34:10
  And like, so in that aspect, it's like, sure is.
• 1:34:13
  Am I rooting the environment? But it's not like, here's the
• 1:34:16
  thing that was like. Sitting there going hey.
• 1:34:19
  Can. You find a podcast about
• 1:34:21
  weapons. Yeah, that's it.
• 1:34:23
  There's your prompt. Like you're sitting there going,
• 1:34:25
  hey, here's my, here's my information.
• 1:34:28
  This is what I want. This is what I want to talk
• 1:34:30
  about. These are the people I want to
• 1:34:31
  talk about. I want to talk about other
• 1:34:33
  things that they've done. I want to have this and this and
• 1:34:35
  this and. Like, but even in my prompt, I
• 1:34:36
  have it written down, like, hey, give me a section about the
• 1:34:38
  director. Yeah, guys, what do we think
• 1:34:40
  about the director? And then we are putting our
• 1:34:42
  genuine human thoughts where we're still not making it a
• 1:34:45
  complete AI podcast. AI is giving me that structure
• 1:34:48
  to say something. Hey, here's a topic.
• 1:34:49
  Then here's your characters. Then here's your movie.
• 1:34:51
  But still, I feel like I'm doing a good job.
• 1:34:54
  At least for me, anyway. This is the first time you've
• 1:34:56
  seen this new structure. Yeah.
• 1:34:57
  Yeah. Where I still feel like my guess
• 1:34:58
  is involved. And we're still talking about
• 1:35:00
  the movie. Yeah.
• 1:35:01
  And I also think it keeps you on track too.
• 1:35:04
  I think that would be ideal. Send the fucking format to to
• 1:35:08
  the next person. You know what I mean?
• 1:35:10
  Send the format. That way it'll be a lot easier.
• 1:35:12
  But. A part of me is also terrified
• 1:35:14
  that I send someone hey this is my and then they immediately
• 1:35:17
  judge that this is a complete AI podcast.
• 1:35:19
  I don't want to help anymore right?
• 1:35:20
  But I'm, I'm, I'm letting you come here experiencing.
• 1:35:24
  Right. I think using, I think using the
• 1:35:26
  pinpoints will be so much more helpful.
• 1:35:29
  Yeah, like in that aspect. So you could be like here we're
• 1:35:32
  on Section 1 right now and then like, sure, you know what I
• 1:35:35
  mean. And then you can cut out like
• 1:35:36
  when you're like, oh, Section 1 because.
• 1:35:38
  Even. When AI does this, I even tell
• 1:35:40
  AI Hannah like this and then and I talk to AI and then because AI
• 1:35:45
  is fucking what it is. It's learning me and like even
• 1:35:48
  my intro and outros, it's learning my humor and it's
• 1:35:50
  watching my channel and it's saying, oh, this is like if you
• 1:35:53
  want to bless in front of your boss, you'll get fired.
• 1:35:55
  Good for you. Like that's something I would
• 1:35:56
  say, you know, which is kind of fucking weird that it's doing
• 1:35:59
  that. Yeah, there was a fucking.
• 1:36:01
  I was driving home and I left my Cox Cable out and out of my car
• 1:36:07
  because I had to take it to the garage.
• 1:36:08
  So I took it out and I forgot to put it back in.
• 1:36:10
  And so it was like at my fucking house.
• 1:36:12
  So I was driving home today from New Hampshire, which is a six
• 1:36:15
  hour drive. And then I just stopped here
• 1:36:17
  because I was like, I want to do the weapons episode and if I
• 1:36:20
  don't do it, I'm going to be so mad at myself.
• 1:36:22
  Chuck couldn't. Make it My aunt Courtney was
• 1:36:24
  going to jump in, but she couldn't make.
• 1:36:25
  It either. Oh damn.
• 1:36:26
  Well, I I hope that I helped them not yeah, because I fucking
• 1:36:31
  love Zach. And so even if we did like
• 1:36:33
  episodes where we watched his previous films, I think it'd be
• 1:36:36
  funny. For us on the list.
• 1:36:37
  Well, I think it'd be funny for us to watch Miss March 1st
• 1:36:40
  because that's a comedic movie, and then go to Barbarian and
• 1:36:44
  you'd be like, what the fuck? Like what the fuck is the
• 1:36:47
  drastic change? People don't stay till they're
• 1:36:50
  like they have a format maybe or a style.
• 1:36:52
  Is that done? I.
• 1:36:53
  Think it's just about. Hey, Ruby's Ruby.
• 1:36:58
  What is it, Ruby? Movie soap.
• 1:37:00
  Works movie soap or candles, and we need to order a new one soon.
• 1:37:04
  They're a local business. I fucking love Hell yeah, yeah,
• 1:37:07
  I I, I, I remember the WHOP candle I used to put on the
• 1:37:10
  podcast. It was called Whop.
• 1:37:12
  Yeah, but it was like a warm apple pie.
• 1:37:14
  Not yeah. I was like, this candle's
• 1:37:17
  fucking amazing. And then I used to use their
• 1:37:18
  soap like their heart like they had a bar so shit.
• 1:37:22
  And I was like, dude, their so their stuff is so good.
• 1:37:24
  That's right. And then we were at Pride and I
• 1:37:27
  physically met the people who did it and I was like, dude,
• 1:37:29
  I've been a fan of your fucking shit forever.
• 1:37:31
  And they're like, what? I was like, yeah, I love your
• 1:37:33
  products. Like that's so, yeah, they're,
• 1:37:35
  they're local. You know the stop the shop down
• 1:37:39
  the street from the YMCA, between the YMCA and the police
• 1:37:41
  station, there's like that building that all these local
• 1:37:43
  craft people put their stuff inside of and you go inside
• 1:37:46
  there and it's like a little. Have you ever been in there?
• 1:37:48
  No, it's like a little. The window is there and it's
• 1:37:50
  like right by. It's like a consignment shop.
• 1:37:52
  Kind of, but it's all like, but they their stuff was in there.
• 1:37:55
  It's. Here, impossible.
• 1:37:56
  Oh, in in my town. Yeah, I'll show you where it's
• 1:37:58
  at, but I. Don't know.
• 1:38:00
  I don't even. She hasn't.
• 1:38:01
  Even been in there? Yeah.
• 1:38:02
  Oh shit, I would like to go, Yeah.
• 1:38:04
  Yeah, but it's a cool little place.
• 1:38:05
  But that's where I first found them.
• 1:38:06
  But now they found they have their own thing.
• 1:38:08
  I like them a lot. There's a girl at my job who
• 1:38:09
  makes soaps. I buy her soaps a lot.
• 1:38:12
  And then there's there's this place I want to order some stuff
• 1:38:14
  from because I had a beard oil from them and something else I
• 1:38:16
  love. But they're called Conjuring.
• 1:38:18
  But they're more like spooky paranormal witchy vibe soaps and
• 1:38:23
  stuff. I normally go.
• 1:38:25
  To like locally for that stuff was Loki and Layla's candles.
• 1:38:29
  They were good too, but I think he took the regular store out so
• 1:38:32
  now they've just been kind of, I'm not sure where.
• 1:38:33
  They've been, but I used to use their stuff a lot too.
• 1:38:35
  Yeah, Loki and Layla were like big supporters.
• 1:38:37
  Well, they're still big supporters of the content.
• 1:38:39
  I've seen them at Brewfest and they we still, we're still very,
• 1:38:41
  they had a candle. It was called like the Husky.
• 1:38:43
  And I was like, dude, this smells like Nirvana's closet.
• 1:38:45
  And it was like very non chompa Patchouli based candle.
• 1:38:47
  That's awesome, I love this. So we carry the incense from
• 1:38:50
  that used to be in Nirvana's closet.
• 1:38:52
  Really. Yeah.
• 1:38:53
  Where are they? The wild Berry.
• 1:38:55
  Is that what it was? I thought that was just knock
• 1:38:58
  champa at the whole time. Nah, dude, come through because
• 1:39:01
  like I tell people that all the time.
• 1:39:03
  Like do you ever go to Nirvana's closet in the store?
• 1:39:05
  We're the only shop that I know that actually carries
• 1:39:07
  themselves. And there's a Inkersona.
• 1:39:09
  There's a smoke shop that also does, but not as many.
• 1:39:12
  Not as. Many how much is like a a pack
• 1:39:14
  of? Ten of them's like 3 bucks.
• 1:39:17
  Maybe I'll just have. Sometimes people though,
• 1:39:19
  sometimes people spend like $100 in like, I'll just, I'll just be
• 1:39:23
  like just next time. You come to the podcast, I'll
• 1:39:25
  throw you like 20. Just bring me like $20 worth of.
• 1:39:27
  Incentive. I got you.
• 1:39:28
  Guys, I have a little instant thing.
• 1:39:29
  I usually like one for the podcast, but I have I didn't do
• 1:39:32
  it the sense I have the candle lit, but hell yeah.
• 1:39:34
  But yeah, man, that was really. Fun.
• 1:39:35
  We just yeah, this is our little tangent on candles.
• 1:39:39
  So unrelated. There's one more thing I want to
• 1:39:40
  talk about, but I also want to keep an eye on the Yeah, the
• 1:39:43
  recordings. But I think we're good.
• 1:39:44
  But I started watching the Ed Gein.
• 1:39:46
  I did not. I did not.
• 1:39:48
  I've seen a lot on it and I like the full.
• 1:39:50
  Review because I want to do a review on it, but where I'm at
• 1:39:52
  right now, I really like it but I also really hate it.
• 1:39:54
  I'm afraid to watch it because I've I've been just like
• 1:39:58
  anything documentary on serial killers or anything like that
• 1:40:01
  lately has just gotten into my head and I'm like, man, I don't
• 1:40:04
  trust anyone fucking near me at all.
• 1:40:06
  Like and and it's and it's not AI know that that's just kind of
• 1:40:11
  like. Well, no, it's a rational fear.
• 1:40:13
  I was going to say that's an irrational fear, but no, it's
• 1:40:15
  totally rational because the dudes like people have families
• 1:40:18
  and they do that shit to the fucking family.
• 1:40:21
  And I'm like, and so like, that anxiety lingers in me and I've
• 1:40:24
  been trying to stay away from too realistic, you know, I
• 1:40:30
  figured. And then I saw her.
• 1:40:32
  So, yeah, so I, I'm going to sound like a very desensitized
• 1:40:36
  person right now, and I'm going to come off as probably really
• 1:40:38
  psychotic and gross when I say this, but I don't mean it this
• 1:40:41
  way. I, I watch a lot of serial
• 1:40:44
  killer stuff. I'm fascinated by what makes
• 1:40:46
  them tick. It's the human experience,
• 1:40:49
  right? I, I love mine.
• 1:40:50
  I love mine but. Why do people become fucking
• 1:40:52
  therapists or like, you know what I mean?
• 1:40:54
  Like it's. I'm very, I'm very.
• 1:40:56
  I have a lot of theories and sometimes those theories
• 1:40:58
  probably offend and upset people, but it is what it is.
• 1:41:00
  But I always was the impressive. I was always told that Ed Gein's
• 1:41:03
  the worst of the worst. And then researching and
• 1:41:06
  learning about Ed Gein, I was like, he really wasn't that bad.
• 1:41:10
  He but what he did was so early on and it was so publicized at
• 1:41:15
  such an early time and it was trying to deflect a lot from
• 1:41:18
  what was happening in the world at that time.
• 1:41:20
  Because that's the dude. That also inspired so many other
• 1:41:24
  cultural horror movies that were so graphic and gratuitous.
• 1:41:28
  Well that's what I was going to say.
• 1:41:29
  He was the dude that inspired like Leatherface's character and
• 1:41:32
  Psycho. And Silence of the Lambs, but he
• 1:41:38
  was essentially, and I'm going to say simple minded, but he was
• 1:41:41
  mentally challenged but also had a lot of deficiencies and stuff
• 1:41:45
  like that and then had a very overbearing mother.
• 1:41:47
  But he only has confirmed 2 kills under his belt, right?
• 1:41:51
  And the rest was just him grave robbing and then taking dug up
• 1:41:54
  bodies, which I don't think. I think it's still gross and
• 1:41:57
  weird. Like I think he didn't murder
• 1:41:59
  them. I think it's a little weirder to
• 1:42:01
  be Jeffrey Dahmer killing someone and then taking their
• 1:42:04
  bodies and physically by hand the person he then killed and
• 1:42:08
  then dismembering their body and eating it and doing what he.
• 1:42:12
  Did I feel? Like he was like, well, this
• 1:42:13
  person's already dead in his rational, simple mind.
• 1:42:16
  Well, they're already gone. No one's going to care that
• 1:42:18
  they're in the ground or not. I can, I want to, I'm fascinated
• 1:42:20
  by it. I'm going to go dig them up.
• 1:42:21
  And I'm not saying what he did was correct, right?
• 1:42:23
  I just don't think it's as bad as.
• 1:42:25
  Right, Yeah, put them on cereal or something.
• 1:42:27
  No, yeah, for sure. I also like, I do think.
• 1:42:30
  Do you remember the Dahmer like bio that they did where like
• 1:42:34
  they fuck they like they make him out to be a lovable
• 1:42:38
  character because I guess that's how they want you to feel about
• 1:42:42
  like whatever. But then, but then people, I
• 1:42:45
  think they did, yeah, because. They that kid from the Disney
• 1:42:48
  Channel, right? Yeah, yeah.
• 1:42:49
  The kid from Ross Lynch or. What from the kid from American
• 1:42:52
  Horror Story? I know American.
• 1:42:53
  Horror Story. Yeah.
• 1:42:54
  Ever Peters. Yeah, that was Jeffrey Donner.
• 1:42:56
  Why did I think it? Was there was a couple different
• 1:42:58
  films? Bundy, they make you feel like
• 1:43:00
  he's a relatable small guy because that's what he that's
• 1:43:02
  how he did. But Dahmer was another one who
• 1:43:04
  was just a really weird, quirky, strange fucking dude.
• 1:43:08
  Without spoiling it because it is really it's a good watch, but
• 1:43:12
  like they, I just really think that they or at least the people
• 1:43:15
  that watched it. That's the problem.
• 1:43:18
  The people. That watch people watch serial
• 1:43:20
  killer stuff. There's 2 movies.
• 1:43:21
  Yeah, so my friend Dahmer, I guess was a movie and that's the
• 1:43:25
  one that the my. Friend My Friend Dahmer is was a
• 1:43:29
  documentary based off someone. Who?
• 1:43:30
  It's a movie, not a documentary. Yeah, my friend.
• 1:43:32
  Dahmer is based off. Of it's based off the book of a
• 1:43:35
  guy who actually was friends with Jeffrey Dahmer.
• 1:43:38
  Is it the one right? That's the one.
• 1:43:40
  I think that's the one that I'm probably talking about.
• 1:43:42
  He was romanticized, right? Really.
• 1:43:44
  Yeah. Because like the Netflix.
• 1:43:46
  One was not right. Yeah, this is not.
• 1:43:48
  I'm not talking about an actual like documentaries, no no.
• 1:43:52
  Netflix makes is takes. So Netflix has a series of like
• 1:43:56
  the tapes of when investigators go in there and then they do
• 1:43:59
  like the tapes, but then they take the tapes and then make it
• 1:44:02
  like they hire a big name actor and then they play them and then
• 1:44:05
  fucking make it a. Which is Evan Peters.
• 1:44:07
  Version. Yeah, no.
• 1:44:09
  So my friend Dahmer's. Fucking.
• 1:44:11
  That was the that was the movie that that that came out as like
• 1:44:15
  20/16/2017. People like romanticized the
• 1:44:19
  shit out of him after that. Like people were like, oh, I
• 1:44:22
  would have let him fucking yeah. I would have let him meet me.
• 1:44:25
  Yeah. Like, shit like that.
• 1:44:26
  Yes, yeah. Because of this movie, this is
• 1:44:29
  what I was telling. You because the way that they
• 1:44:31
  did it was like. So charming and so lovable.
• 1:44:34
  It doesn't matter to like spoil it because it's so old, but like
• 1:44:38
  in the beginning it's just like for the rest.
• 1:44:40
  I haven't watched it. You'll like it.
• 1:44:43
  You'll like it. I'll just tell you this.
• 1:44:45
  In the beginning, he just finds roadkill and you're like, oh
• 1:44:48
  what? You know, whatever.
• 1:44:49
  He's just fascinated by bones. And then it escalates and then
• 1:44:53
  it's turns into like the relationships that he's had and
• 1:44:57
  you think he was. Also gay and.
• 1:44:59
  Sexual you think well, no, that's what it is.
• 1:45:01
  They they think that he was gay but they never insinuate.
• 1:45:05
  Like it's never been like proven it.
• 1:45:08
  Was I don't know, he's 100% gay. But I think that's why, though,
• 1:45:11
  I think that they they're like, Oh, well, you know, catered, not
• 1:45:15
  cater, but like they definitely play on the gay thing and they
• 1:45:18
  try to make it seem like, oh, but he could have been a better
• 1:45:21
  person if he just got. Like this is where this is where
• 1:45:24
  it gets tough when you talk about serial killers, especially
• 1:45:27
  the the the key ones, the the Mount Rushmore ones.
• 1:45:29
  If you want to say I don't like what people say my favorite
• 1:45:32
  serial killer because you're you're romanticizing someone
• 1:45:34
  with young. People.
• 1:45:35
  Yeah, but but a lot of them, especially the ones that were
• 1:45:39
  pushed to the main, main media, there was an anti-gay movement
• 1:45:42
  happening. And then they were blaming the
• 1:45:44
  fact that they were gay, that they were serial killers.
• 1:45:46
  Right, Which I don't necessarily agree.
• 1:45:48
  But I also think when you sexually repress people and you
• 1:45:51
  don't let people be who they are and you make it so stigmatized
• 1:45:54
  and like, if you're gay, you're you're evil.
• 1:45:56
  I think that's when people who were gay were.
• 1:45:59
  Trying to like act out. Or.
• 1:46:03
  Whatever. Yeah, 100%.
• 1:46:04
  Dahmer was taught that he was this evil monster scumbag
• 1:46:07
  because he was instead of being accepted and being like, hey,
• 1:46:11
  you're like, that's where I think the it's from a different
• 1:46:15
  perspective where I'm like, hey, maybe this guy could have been
• 1:46:17
  fixed if society was treated people of that different.
• 1:46:20
  It's like you're going to be dumb or you're going to be
• 1:46:22
  Freddie Mercury and they thought you don't know what that you
• 1:46:25
  don't know the coin flip. Yeah, it's just, it's just like
• 1:46:29
  it's but he. Was still super calculated and
• 1:46:30
  he hurt people in these horrible, horrible fucking.
• 1:46:32
  Things right and it's such but it's such an unfair like
• 1:46:35
  examination, right, because like that because there's such a like
• 1:46:42
  what's what's the term like faith in like America type feel
• 1:46:49
  that like anyone who isn't 100% straight or wasn't like Catholic
• 1:46:53
  or Christian, you know what I mean?
• 1:46:55
  But those murderers don't get sought after.
• 1:46:58
  They're like, you know what I mean?
• 1:46:59
  Or like if there was a school shooting or something.
• 1:47:02
  Thousands of serial. Killers that we don't even know
• 1:47:03
  about that don't get politicized because there was an agenda with
• 1:47:06
  a lot of these. Guys, there wasn't anything
• 1:47:07
  because they. Were they were gay?
• 1:47:09
  They were anti church. They're they're evils or they're
• 1:47:11
  evil people. And we need to fucking showcase.
• 1:47:14
  It's an anti-gay movement. It's a it's it's like almost
• 1:47:17
  like the Satanic panic, but it's a gay panic movement where like,
• 1:47:20
  hey, let's, let's bring, because here's the thing too.
• 1:47:22
  What they don't talk about is, or sometimes they do is like
• 1:47:25
  Dahmer and Ted Bundy and a lot of other people had child
• 1:47:28
  victims and those don't even get talked about at all, right, You
• 1:47:31
  know what I mean? Like they were just regardless
• 1:47:34
  of what their sexuality was. They were predators.
• 1:47:37
  They were predators and that's crazy.
• 1:47:39
  Like that's just, it's insane. And then like, Speaking of
• 1:47:42
  Predators, then you go into like the 2000s to catch a Predator,
• 1:47:46
  the fucking TV show that gets taken off the air because it's
• 1:47:49
  entrapment. It was to an extent so.
• 1:47:54
  No, I get it. But it's just kind of like.
• 1:47:56
  If you're. 1. Yeah, it's. 1.
• 1:47:57
  Extreme to the. Other, yeah.
• 1:47:58
  So here's I can tell you how, So here's why a lot of these
• 1:48:01
  Youtubers are getting these people are getting off because
• 1:48:04
  listen, just from the world of wrestling, I know people who got
• 1:48:07
  off. Because the.
• 1:48:07
  Roblox. The Roblox shit, why did he get?
• 1:48:10
  He didn't. He didn't got.
• 1:48:11
  Four years, four years, he's getting off.
• 1:48:15
  That he got off because let's let's talk.
• 1:48:17
  We know that was. In the office.
• 1:48:19
  I didn't see how many years, I just saw that.
• 1:48:22
  He's even going to serve the whole four years.
• 1:48:24
  He gets to pick what prison he goes to too.
• 1:48:26
  Apparently is like a whole. He'll get a cushiony seat, but
• 1:48:29
  I, I think he'll serve a little bit, but I think I think higher
• 1:48:31
  people will, will get him out sooner because.
• 1:48:36
  You don't think he's going to get anyway he's going to get
• 1:48:37
  Epstein I. Don't want to go political?
• 1:48:40
  Sorry. I think there's going to be
• 1:48:42
  people who are in higher cabinets who were probably in
• 1:48:44
  this in attendance and his buddies that are.
• 1:48:46
  Yeah, but the what was I saying with the?
• 1:48:52
  Oh, the predator cats predator. So the.
• 1:48:55
  Predator. There's, there's a guy, I watch
• 1:48:58
  a lot of them on YouTube and there's people who are really
• 1:48:59
  good and there's some people who are good, but they're also
• 1:49:01
  shitty people and it's the whole thing.
• 1:49:03
  But if you go into a. YouTube movement now, yeah.
• 1:49:06
  So if you go into a chat and I say I'm attacking, I'm trying to
• 1:49:10
  get you to be the predator. If I make a chat and I message
• 1:49:13
  you first, that is 100% entrapment.
• 1:49:16
  I'm contacting you first and I'm directing the conversation based
• 1:49:21
  on because I know you're going to take the bait.
• 1:49:24
  So I'm pretty much entrapping you by telling you I'm underage
• 1:49:27
  by messaging you first. By law, that's a trap.
• 1:49:30
  Even though you're still going along with it and doing
• 1:49:33
  everything that's illegal. I'm kind of I'm grabbing you and
• 1:49:37
  steering you in that direction. What happens is these people go
• 1:49:40
  on these chat. The way that the good people
• 1:49:42
  catch them is they go into these places with these profiles.
• 1:49:45
  They're saying that hey, I was I'm 18, or I'm 27 or I'm 19.
• 1:49:49
  They message them and then say hey I'm actually insert underage
• 1:49:53
  person HP. Are you OK?
• 1:49:56
  Are you OK with that? And then this person goes sure
• 1:49:58
  AM. And then you're fucked, right?
• 1:50:02
  Right. Then once again, in those
• 1:50:04
  conversations, you have to let them engage in the sexuality.
• 1:50:08
  You have to let them engage in inviting you over.
• 1:50:10
  You have to let engage. Let them engage on the meet up.
• 1:50:13
  It's crazy how that fucking that was like a whole thing where
• 1:50:16
  they were like, oh, it's gonna. But then half of the time it was
• 1:50:19
  just like for the bad fucking things.
• 1:50:21
  It was literally just people with like bad people.
• 1:50:23
  Got off with no charges, no registry, no nothing because the
• 1:50:27
  people who did the investigation get it wrong.
• 1:50:30
  And never didn't. Do it by the book.
• 1:50:32
  Contact enforcement or anything like that, Yeah.
• 1:50:35
  Well, not even in contacting the enforcement because there's,
• 1:50:37
  there's still times where you don't have to contact the police
• 1:50:39
  and say here's my evidence depending on some DDAS or like,
• 1:50:43
  I don't want to deal with this because there's a, it's like
• 1:50:46
  kind of like being a good podcaster and shitty podcasters.
• 1:50:49
  There's what? A weird, weird way.
• 1:50:51
  Shitty podcaster. The shitty people doing it will
• 1:50:54
  then ruin the image of the people who are trying their
• 1:50:56
  hardest. Right, so.
• 1:50:57
  Yeah, you meant from that perspective, I was like, it's
• 1:50:59
  kind of like being a bad predator.
• 1:51:02
  These people who are doing these catches are doing these catches
• 1:51:05
  and doing it by the book, but there's so many negative people
• 1:51:08
  who are are fucking up the DA and fucking up people's
• 1:51:11
  investigations and letting bad people go that a law
• 1:51:13
  enforcement. I don't even want to fuck with
• 1:51:15
  these fucking. Waste of time.
• 1:51:16
  It's a waste of our time. But then there's a few good ones
• 1:51:18
  that then get in there. But then but you have to
• 1:51:21
  realize, are these people doing it?
• 1:51:23
  And this goes with all content or anything in general.
• 1:51:26
  Are these people generally doing it because they want to make a
• 1:51:28
  change or they want? To just famous yeah yeah, cuz
• 1:51:32
  like you'll see the ones where they like go in and they beat up
• 1:51:34
  the dude and I'm like and I'm sitting there I'm like that dude
• 1:51:38
  that person is so like obviously so in a different mental
• 1:51:43
  capacity they're you know what I mean they're not 100%.
• 1:51:47
  I've watched a video where they these there's those now the ones
• 1:51:50
  he's talking about are these predator catchers who go and
• 1:51:54
  physically assault them. They.
• 1:51:56
  Get the shit video. But then you and I'm not, once
• 1:52:00
  again, I'm not giving a pass, but there are some people that
• 1:52:03
  they're going after and targeting that are clearly
• 1:52:06
  learning disability, people who are clearly.
• 1:52:08
  Probably don't think the same way as like and and they never
• 1:52:12
  show the sexual like yeah. Not giving a pass.
• 1:52:15
  I think if you're, if you have an adult living in your
• 1:52:18
  household who has learning deficiencies, they should be
• 1:52:23
  treated just as a child and you should protect and monitor what
• 1:52:25
  they're doing on the Internet. Yeah.
• 1:52:27
  I don't think I think to a certain age the Internet should
• 1:52:31
  be treated like any other substance, any other adult
• 1:52:34
  thing. Like if you give your child a
• 1:52:36
  phone and you give a person who's not mentally insufficient
• 1:52:39
  a phone, they can get caught up in really crazy shit really
• 1:52:42
  quickly and put themselves in a lot of trouble.
• 1:52:44
  Children and people who are older but maybe have the
• 1:52:47
  mentality of children. We have conversation with her
• 1:52:49
  kids all the time. Hey, just because you have
• 1:52:51
  phones now and you're, you're on the Internet, you're on these
• 1:52:53
  apps, you need to be fucking careful.
• 1:52:56
  You can, you can get caught up in some crazy shit really
• 1:52:58
  quickly. Like you need to educate people
• 1:53:00
  about the Internet. It's, it's, it's not just a tool
• 1:53:04
  to like, hey, get the fuck out of my face.
• 1:53:05
  Here's your tablet. No, you're kicked with a tablet
• 1:53:08
  and the world can get opened up and they can get caught up in
• 1:53:10
  some really bad things if they're not like.
• 1:53:12
  Without even intentionally doing so, a. 100.
• 1:53:14
  Percent, not just viruses. You have the younger brother.
• 1:53:16
  You know what I mean? Like it's scary too because it's
• 1:53:19
  like, I know with him he's literally just watching fucking
• 1:53:22
  TikTok and stuff like that. But some of the tik toks have
• 1:53:24
  some little shit. You're like, hey, what did I
• 1:53:27
  watch? Let's talk about it.
• 1:53:28
  You know why you watch that? And you like, you know, like
• 1:53:30
  what? Do you understand the meaning of
• 1:53:32
  it? Yeah, yeah.
• 1:53:33
  You. Have a conversation.
• 1:53:34
  And so it's like it's really hard to be the older brother
• 1:53:36
  because obviously my parents didn't see that within me.
• 1:53:39
  It wasn't the same, you know, I had a console or video game
• 1:53:42
  console or whatever when I was a kid, you know, but we grew up
• 1:53:46
  within it. Yeah.
• 1:53:47
  So it's. Like we learned, we grew with it
• 1:53:49
  and it's. Weird because my mom just didn't
• 1:53:51
  really have any interest in like computer.
• 1:53:54
  Stuff right now when they got making these videos as good as
• 1:53:56
  they are. Yeah, it's scary.
• 1:53:59
  It's really scary. I know it's a funny 1 and I I I
• 1:54:01
  chop a lot of but did you see the one where the guy takes a
• 1:54:03
  T-shirt cannon and shoots the old lady?
• 1:54:05
  Directly, yeah, I couldn't tell. I couldn't tell if that was
• 1:54:08
  fake. Really.
• 1:54:09
  Like I mean it was. Super scary.
• 1:54:10
  Yeah, it that's super real looking.
• 1:54:12
  The only thing that set it off for me was after the third watch
• 1:54:16
  I saw the fucking thing go through like his arm or
• 1:54:18
  something, you know what I mean? Is like.
• 1:54:20
  Him just laughing and not having a care in the world and then the
• 1:54:24
  other people around are freaking out and he just stands there,
• 1:54:26
  smile and I was like, oh, that's AI.
• 1:54:28
  Unless he's a fucking psycho, you know what I mean?
• 1:54:30
  But it's scary, dude. And and that's what I was
• 1:54:33
  saying. I was on the car ride home.
• 1:54:35
  There was a thing on the radio where this girl's like, yeah, I
• 1:54:39
  could just, it's like TikTok, but it's all AI.
• 1:54:42
  And I can just say this prompt and then me and my friends are
• 1:54:45
  like dancing with skeletons and shit like that.
• 1:54:47
  And I'm like sitting there, I'm like, what?
• 1:54:50
  Who is this fucking for? You know, Because like the AI
• 1:54:53
  thing is like, it's definitely like a political movement, but
• 1:54:56
  neither side is interested in it.
• 1:54:58
  You know what I mean? There there is some that are
• 1:55:01
  like oh I want to wait 2. Reelections come around again?
• 1:55:04
  Yeah. Where do you see how hard AI is
• 1:55:06
  going to be pushed to help reelect stuff in the future?
• 1:55:10
  I yeah, I fear that shit. That's why they're doing it.
• 1:55:13
  Why do you think we are? Not to get political, but they
• 1:55:17
  just put into law that they want to essentially let AI go
• 1:55:21
  unrestricted for the for the next 10 years and no one can do
• 1:55:24
  nothing about it. Who do you think right now is
• 1:55:26
  using? Who's what?
• 1:55:28
  What person? What?
• 1:55:29
  Person president is retweeting on his platform AI videos 4
• 1:55:35
  times a day on a daily basis that's.
• 1:55:38
  Insane. He loves it dude, because AI and
• 1:55:42
  algorithms are catering to his fucking ego and his brain and
• 1:55:45
  making him feel amazing and he's getting sucked into a fucking
• 1:55:49
  vortex. It's crazy.
• 1:55:50
  Yeah, it's crazy right now. He put a video up the other day
• 1:55:53
  that was so AI and so bad that he's in the video saying things
• 1:55:58
  that he wants done in the country that he didn't even
• 1:56:01
  physically say, and he liked the AI version of himself saying it,
• 1:56:06
  that he posted it to the world as the fucking president of the
• 1:56:09
  United States. Wild.
• 1:56:11
  We're only cracking the surface. Yeah, that's that's the next.
• 1:56:15
  That's the next movie. That's the next movie.
• 1:56:18
  Right now, AI, it's common. AIA period.
• 1:56:21
  I Period. Yeah, a Meg 2 point or
• 1:56:24
  three-point. No, they already had.
• 1:56:25
  They already had. Well they had AI but they it was
• 1:56:28
  fucking the Will Smith movie. What's the one Terminator?
• 1:56:32
  Hold on pause, what's the movie with Hailey Joel Osment where
• 1:56:35
  he's a robot? Wasn't that called AR?
• 1:56:39
  Oh shit. Maybe.
• 1:56:40
  Yeah, Listen, I don't want, I want to.
• 1:56:42
  Sorry. I'm looking the time frames
• 1:56:48
  guys. Thank you so much.
• 1:56:48
  I hope you enjoyed the bonus content.
• 1:56:50
  If you like this or any movies you want to see, I'm going to
• 1:56:53
  end this right before our casket.
• 1:56:54
  Literally get into a fistfight. See you guys next time.
