  Speaker 2: Oh no, what now? What? Well?
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Before I ruin any one who enjoyed this movie, let's
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: talk into some news and notes about this movie.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: All right, Okay, wait, can I just talk for a
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: second before we jump into news and notes? Of course,
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: was this weekend a stinker of weekend movies?
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: So I only watched one.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: My husband was out of town this weekend, so I said,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: I'm only going to watch the movie that we are reviewing.
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: I will save the rest for you. But I did hear.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: Some chatter about Nantucket Noel, which I was very much
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: looking forward to, that maybe it wasn't great.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: And I have yet to.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Watch a kiss before Christmas during Terry Hatcher and James Denton,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: so I don't know.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: There was some hope for me for that one. Did
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: you watch it? No?
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: I watched a little bit of Nantucket Noel and the
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: acting was not good, not good at all.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: So bad.
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: The Terry Hatcher James Denton one, I haven't watched. I
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: do have it recorded. I haven't seen anything on like Twitter.
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: I haven't actually actively looked to see like the.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: Review of it.
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: Yet.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: This could be a good spot to bury the movies
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: right before we dive into all of the big name
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: movies everyone is looking forward to.
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: I just I can't believe that The Terry Hatcher James
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: Denton one could be as bad as like Nantucket Noel.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: There's just no way. So maybe that was the star
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: of the weekend, But I don't know.
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: We shall find out.
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, News and Notes, go for it.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: This was filmed in British Columbia in the Vernon and
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Okanagan regions, and let me tell you, those locals are
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: real proud to see some of their hometown spots in
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: this movie, including the Roxy Cafe, which was used as
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: a location of Megan's cafe. And I do not know
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: what her cafe was called.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: I think it was called Roxy Cafe. I mean the
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: sign of how friend said Roxy Cafe.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: Oh did it? Okay?
• 3:53
  Speaker 3: I think so. I mean I think I only noticed
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: because my dog's name is Roxy, So you know, I agree.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: They were very excited to be like the townspeople were
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: happy that they were there, Like I had read some
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: stuff like they had a bunch of extras used and
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: blah blah blah whatever. This movie was previously titled Christmas
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: Alone Together, and I gotta say I like that title better.
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: Christmas Alone Together.
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: That's I feel like perhaps Homark has dug themselves into
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: a bit of a hole by producing this many movies.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: At some point, we're just gonna have to start numbering them.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: I mean going to run out of Christmas movie name
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: generator options.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: Do you remember, Well, okay, that's what I was gonna say.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: Do you remember, like back in like the late nineties
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: early two thousands, they would have a box of like magnets,
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: like poet poetry magnets that you would like put.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: Hundred percent on your refrigerator.
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: Yes. I feel like this is how they come up
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: with the title. So these movies they just rearranged like
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: Christmasy words to see like does that work? Okay, great,
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: We're gonna go with that.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: All right, Like, give me a noun, give me an adjective.
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: A mad lives it. Sorry, I'm cracking myself up this morning.
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: Okay, Well, I for the first time noticed I typically
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: don't look, but I noticed on IMDb that this movie
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: had an estimated budget of two point five million dollars.
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: Megan, that is in my notes as well. That is
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: the first time I've ever seen it noted same, and
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: so that makes me wonder. Two point five million dollars.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: When I first saw it, went oh, that's a lot
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: of money. But is it a lot of money? I
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: don't know how much are the actors getting paid? Probably
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: not much? Right.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: Well, when you consider the number of people that have
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: to work on a movie like this, not just the
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: actors and the directors, but the lighting people and the
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: props department and people that are providing food. I mean,
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: it's top to bottom hair and makeup, it doesn't seem
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: like that much. However, when you then break it down
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: and realize that these movies are typically filmed in two weeks,
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: these actors are not being paid feature film rates because
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: they're only working for two weeks.
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: So you think, you think, okay, let's think about like, uh,
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: what Laura Vandervoot, Well, what do you think she'd made
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: on this one hundred thousand dollars?
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: I'm dying to know that kind of information. If anybody
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: knows where we can find that info, I would love
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: to know.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: According to mister dustbin dot com, hallmarked actors get salary
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: between thirty thousand and two one million dollars per movie
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: per their popularity.
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: Oh so re talking like CCB and Lacy Shaber pulling
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: them one million, Tyler Hines pulling the one million, yes,
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: and then that your Laura Vandervoots get thirty thousand dollars.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think Laura van der Voard is probably making more.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: I think the stars are making more than the than
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: the base. I'm very curious if you have insider information. Obviously,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: who knows where this person is gathering their information?
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: Let us I'm gonna I'm gonna message Sleepy Kitty Paw.
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: She's got a no right hey.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: Maybe I also read.
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: That there were wildfires nearby during the filming of this movie.
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: And if you know anything about Meggan and I, we
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: live in southern California where it's wildfire season right now
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: and I can't imagine that they were actually filming a
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: movie when there was nearby wildfires, because the smoke is
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: so awful.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: It is so awful.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: But so yesterday there was a fire somewhat locally, and
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: you were closer to it than I was, but you
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: were on the opposite side of it.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Was it smoky where you were?
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: No, not at all.
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: It was so weird.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: It can't have just been like a wind thing because
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: we're probably what where I am thirty miles from where
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: the fire was. Totally yeah, And it was very smoky
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: at my house yesterday, like burn your eye smoky, But
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: we were not physically close to the fires. And there's
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: no smoke in the air today. So some of the
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: horses had to be evacuated. I saw the filming of
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: this movie, but everyone and everyone was okay, Which.
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: Then leads me again to another question about horses and movies.
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: I know that you have like a real problem with
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: like a horse carriage situation. Right, Why is like a
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: horse drawn carriage buggy ride like so christmasy? Why do
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: they appear in all these Christmas movies?
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: Okay, that's fair, all right, Do you have any other
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: news and notes.
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: The last thing I have is on IMDb they give
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: top billing.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: To Max the Dog.
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: I saw Max if I type in Christmas Together with
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: You on IMDb, hows it populates, it says Christmas together
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: with you.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: There's just a list. Twenty twenty one.
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: Dax and Jim Evans are the two people who are
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: given top billing. Jim Evans is the dad Steve's dad.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: Oh, has Max the Dog been in anything else?
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: Well?
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: Max the Dog does not have a profile photo on
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: his IMDb page, and that is his only acting credit.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: His owner needs to get on that.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: I have to assume that he's like the dog of
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: someone on the production.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: He's probably that dad that played Steve's dad. It was
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: probably bat Guy's Because as a person who is very
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: familiar with adding content to IMDb, I'm telling you the
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: owner is missing an opportunity there to add maxis photo.
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: Right, it made some work. What's your first impression of
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: this movie?
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: My first impression of this movie is I could really
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: go for some green Bean castrole.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: That is so funny. I have something to say about
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: that later.
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: So funny I have, I have, I have some other
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: notes and did just see that about the green Bean castrole.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: But holy hell wow.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: Well my feeling is it kind of made me want
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: to go to an inn at Christmas. I kind of
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: was like, oh I could I could use a little
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: holiday get away. I say this because my daughter and
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: husband were out of town this weekend and they were
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: having like Christmas sing it up a little envious.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: In the winter weather they had.
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: When do you get to have your own Christmas festivities
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: come true?
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: I mean, I'm all talk because my husband's like, you
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: plan a trip and that sounds exhausting. I don't really
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: want to do that. So it's not that I can't.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: It's just that I'd rather complain about it than do
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: anything about it.
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: I mean, do you want to get in my suitcase
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: and we can go to New York together?
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: I mean, yes, Okay, let's see that. What did you
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: like about this movie? Okay?
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: So I did like a couple of things. Okay, First
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: and foremost, I really like the actor Harry Lennox who
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: played Frank. I thought he was a good actor. He's natural, believable,
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: like I cared about his storyline. His is the only
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: storyline that I cared about. I liked him a lot.
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: I've never seen him in anything else, and I know
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: he's got a deep resume, but yeah, new to me,
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: and I liked him.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: I said, even though I take issues with some of
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: these storylines, and I will discuss that later, I like
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: that we have a focus on the multiple relationships in
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: this movie rather than just the central romantic relationship. In fact,
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: I find Frank and Claire's relationship far more compelling than
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: Megan and Steve's.
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: One hundred percent.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: I even found Steve's relationship with his parents to be
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: more interesting. I have an issue with that whole dynamic
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: as well, but I found that more interesting than Megan
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: and Steve as well.
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: Are you gonna talk about the parents dynamic because I
• 11:38
  Speaker 3: would love to hear it.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's in my wish.
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: Okay, okay, okay. I really like the dog Max.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: I mean, it's a cute dog.
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: I know. When I was watching this movie, I took
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: a picture of Max from sitting on my couch of
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: the TV. And Max is.
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: A whole mood like he totally.
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: I was feeling Max while as I was watching this movie,
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: and I'm gonna include that picture in our show notes.
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: We'll see what I'm talking about.
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: Says like what is wrong with you people?
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he's like, really, Steve, you're my owner?
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: Yes, none of this holds up. Did you like anything
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: else I did?
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: I like the like let's go on an adventure at
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: Christmas time storyline to look for Frank's you know, old love.
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: And I really like the friendship between Megan and Frank.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: I liked that.
• 12:30
  Speaker 3: Kind of broke my heart when Claire wasn't initially interested
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: in reconnecting with Frank, like especially in that Caroline scene,
• 12:38
  Speaker 3: like when she comes out she's like, what are you
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: doing or what are you trying to do? I just
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: was like, felt so bad for him.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: May I cite a tweet about that scene?
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: Yes?
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: The tweet is from what the Hallmark and it says, PSA,
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: if you show up at someone's place of business, ask
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: them out and they turn you down, it is not
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: okay to then show up uninvited to their house with
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: the pack of your friends try to pressure them into
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: changing their mind.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: Opposite, okay of okay, I mean that's a.
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: Real twenty twenty one.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: I thought it was sweet. I thought it was sweet,
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: but I gets.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Sweet knowing what we know about Frank, because we know
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: Frank is harmless he's a sweet man. They had this
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: love story. We know his side of the story, so
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: we're rooting for him. I think if I were to
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: say to you, hey, this dude showed up at this
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: woman's work after not seeing her for forty years, she
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: turns him down, and then he goes to her home,
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: which why does he know where she lives?
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: That's weird talker.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, uh so I think this again is one of
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: those womens that gets the Hallmark treatment.
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: We forgive it because we are We're here for Frank.
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I was just remembered as you were
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: talking about that I had a dream about you last
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: night that you had some sort of stalker situation like that.
• 13:53
  Speaker 3: So I wonder if like my Hallmark and like everything's
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: melding in my dream together. But it was definitely you
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: and you had like a stocker situation.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: Don't like that at all.
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry, but it was harmless. It wasn't like it
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: was like me and you try to like buddy cop it,
• 14:09
  Speaker 3: trying to like figure it out, catch it.
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: Have an air tag following me? Have you seen those?
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: You know what is an AirTag?
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: Well? AirTag talk?
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, air tag is like Apple's version of the tile.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: You can attach an air tag to your keys or okay,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: to your purse so that you can find it, or
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: to your dog's collar, whatever. And if you have an
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: air tag that is following you your phone and you
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: have an iPhone, your phone will pick it up and
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: it'll say this device has been following you. So people
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: show them on TikTok and they'll be like, I just
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: got a notification on my phone that this device that
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: is not registered to me is like tracking my location.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: And they'll find them like behind their license plate or
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: shoved under a seat in their car. And I don't
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: know the level twitch they're all real, but they all
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: kind of they seem real. It seems like a real problem.
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: I don't know anything about this. I'm gonna have to
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: look for it.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: I'll add more stocking.
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah, oh well, I will definitely add more in the
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: show notes because that seems terrifying.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: It does.
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: Wow. Ooh, I just got the heat.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: GB's uh huh.
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: Okay. I have two scenes that I really liked in
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: this movie. Okay, they made me lol. One when she
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: and Frank first pull into the town of Pinesville and
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: she sees like it's a small town and there's like
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: like craft booths and like horses, and she like gets
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: like so like fixated on the horses and then like
• 15:38
  Speaker 3: almost hits the horse carriage and they're like they totally
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: skid out. I was like, that's super believable because that
• 15:45
  Speaker 3: is totally something I would do. It was so funny,
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: and it was like a full shot, like a full
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: shot of them skidding out. I was like, Oh my god,
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: they're going to crash into the craft.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: Boots like an actual stunt driver handled that. It seems like.
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: How much did that guy make from the two point
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: five million?
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: The other saying I really thought was funny is when
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: they were driving home and Max the dog was hiding
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: in the back of the car and he scares the
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: crap out of Megan as she's driving, and she had
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: like such abelievable reaction that made me laugh so hard.
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: And maybe that's just because I have dogs, and I
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: thought it was really funny.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: I just like when they add these dogs to the movie,
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: it adds like a little levity and warmth to the movie.
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: I'm do the dogs bring those dogs?
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: I sure hope somebody was playing with our bingo card,
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: because they would have got a cute dog. They would
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: have got a shooting star. This movie had a lot
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: of things. It did have a lot of things.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: Did you wish this movie had anything?
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: I had a couple things that I wish this movie had.
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: Do you want me to go first?
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: Sure?
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: Isn't necessary? These are mostly questions, But isn't necessary to
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: have Megan's character be fresh from like canceling a wedding? Like,
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: why can't she just be single? Why can't she just
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: be like single and thriving? She's a business owner, she whatever?
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: Why does she have to be like this broken down?
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: I don't have love in my life.
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: I just canceled my wedding. Today would have been my
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: wedding day. Nonsense?
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: Why I do not think that is necessary? And we
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: have recorded a review of a shoe Attix Christmas that
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: will go up later in December, a throwback movie review
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: and spoiler alert.
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: That was one of my.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: Complaints about this movie is that they make Candice Cameron's
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: character No, well, this scorned woman is not necessary to
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: the story. You know she can we already have that.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: She's alone, her father has passed away, she kind of
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: has is stuck in her business and is not necessarily
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: where she wants to be. We already have some conflict
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: in her life. We didn't also need the Hallmark. If
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: you're not in a relationship, you suck treatment.
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: Right. That's my biggest problem is that it is totally
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: okay to be single, right even at Christmas, even at Christmas,
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: and then they put this like treatment on it that
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: makes these women like quote unquote pathetic a little bit,
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: you know, and there's nothing but pathetic about being single,
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: I don't think well.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: And what is interesting is with a movie like this,
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: Hallmark is doing a good job at one thing, and
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: that is showing different types of love. We have kind
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: of the loving father daughter type relationship that Megan and
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: Frank have, and we have this you know, second chance
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: at love relationship. It's okay. I like that they focus
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: on those things. I think we've seen a departure this
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: year in focusing solely on the main romantic relationship at
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: the core of the story and just letting everything kind
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: of loosely orbit around that. But they can't seem to
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: let go of and she also needs to find love, right.
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: I wonder what.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: Would happen because we see lots of pushback from the
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: traditional Hallmark crowd about a lot of things. What would
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: happen if that crowd didn't get their happy I Love
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: You ending? What if Frank and Claire were the happy
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: I Love you ending.
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: And Megan and Steve were just bystanders? Yeah?
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: Why not? I would love to know the reaction. Like
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: you said, I just know. Why can't they have like
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: a mature love story from Claire and Frank? It's still
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: a love story?
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: I agree?
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: Why do we need like the two like lead white
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: people to be in life?
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: I'm just yes, Megan and Steve could be the supporting
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: actors here, absolutely absolutely all right?
• 19:44
  Speaker 3: What else? What else did you wish for?
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: So these are again more complaints about the movie than anything.
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: Steve works in hospitality, Yes, this is his job, but
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: then he buys this in, so he has a full
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: time job. But then he buys an in, which Laura,
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: like Gilmore tells me, is a full time job owning
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: an in, And then he buys this in, and rather
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: than hiring staff, which as someone who works in hospitality,
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: seems like something he might know how to do is
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: hire people to run a location, he says, Hey, mom and.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: Dad, could you help me out?
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: Like it's his lemonade stand and he's gotten bored and
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: then just walks away. And it seems like maybe he
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: comes home at the holidays to help out a little bit.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: I don't understand where how he's doing his other job.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: He's not a fully fleshed out plan.
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: Son agree, And they didn't even need to have him
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: have another job, like just have him be there at
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: the inn. You guys don't need that like scene where
• 20:44
  Speaker 3: they like he crashes into her or whatever, you know
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: what I mean. They don't need that like scene to
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: set up the two of them.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: No, but that's another good point that I'm realizing right now.
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: As someone who works in hospitality, he is the least
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: hospitable person I have ever met in my life. Like,
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: if you are a person who works in hospitality and
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: it is your job to make sure someone is having
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: a good time, even at your own expense, would you
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: not put he was talking to his mother. If we
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: find out later put down the phone, say I need
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: to call you right back. I just spilled coffee all
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: over somebody. Right, That was the oddest scene, And again
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: is a fallback on the we need to set this
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: guy up as a jerk, So that when they actually
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: enjoy each other, it's magical, right, And since we're.
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: Talking about Steve and like his role in hospitality, this
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: was a note in my digit see that, but I'm
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: going to just talk about it here. He was so rude,
• 21:39
  Speaker 3: like when when Frank and Megan first get to the
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: inn and his back is turned to them, and which
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: I get, like it's supposed to be the surprise moment
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: when he turns around, but he's like, I'll be right
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: with you. No, you greet your customers when they come
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: in the door. You don't say I'll be right with
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: you because I'm filling the mail slots or whatever. Nonsense.
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: He's he's a total jerk. Later on when she asks
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: about Wi Fi and he's like, you know, and and
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: the heater not working in the room, he like kicks
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: it and he's like, ma, it'll be good for two weeks.
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: Like really, dude, I Like, I even tweeted when I
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: was watching this movie, I was like, this dude's in hospitality.
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: Oh my god.
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: Indeed, I'm also really curious. Again, not a wish, just
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: a question. Megan and Frank on this road trip, they
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: get derailed because Clara is not where they think she
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: is going to be and they go to Sleeping Pines.
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: What's this place called.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: They're retired Pinesville, Pineville the town, Oh, the town.
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: They arrive in Pinesville and they decide to stay the
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: night in Steve's Inn. They have no clothes, they have
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: no bags. Explain to me, you've gone on this road trip.
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: You've driven away to visit this woman. You drive a
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: little bit far, and all of a sudden you're now
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: too far to go home. But it never occurred to
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: you to pack a bag because you were going to
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: be too far to drive home.
• 23:10
  Speaker 3: It didn't explain why she was wearing different clothes than
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: the next day.
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah, where did she get the clothes? Because they sleep
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: in her clothes.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: She's laying on the couch in a pencil skirt when
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: they go to bed, probably still.
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: Wearing her heels. But then all of a sudden, they
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: have new clothes.
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: At some point, she says, oh, I went out to
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: pick up some supplies, which apparently means an entirely new
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: winter wardrobe. Yeah, it would be plausible that they had
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: packed a bag because they might have to spend the night.
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: I guess it's supposed to look like a spur of
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: the moment decisions, so they don't have any luggage. It
• 23:40
  Speaker 1: doesn't work for me.
• 23:42
  Speaker 3: It doesn't add up, does it?
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: Okay, this again, this is the section where we just complain.
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: I think, uh, huh, why must two love interest start
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: off rocky? I'm so tired of this old story.
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: Of like.
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: The love interests not getting along and then they find
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: out that they like each other. Like I, as a woman,
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: I am not attracted to a guy who was an
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: asshole to me, like right, Like, uh, it's just used
• 24:15
  Speaker 3: too much in these movies and I need the writers
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: to be more creative, like come on.
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: And it doesn't make me root for them, to root
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: for them. And when Steve was a jerk, I think, Megan.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: Run, Yeah, he's always gonna be like that.
• 24:32
  Speaker 3: He's not gonna change. Yeah, Because I was just thinking
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: the movie that we did for Patreon, My Family Christmas Tree. Yes,
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: Andrew Walker. He was wowie zowie times one hundred. He
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: is so nice the entire movie. They don't start out like, uh,
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: upset at each other, right, and I.
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: Remembering how enemies to lovers. He's lovely and wonderful and
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: charming and kind throughout the entire movie, and I loved
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: him throughout the entire movie and wanted him to be happy.
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: That's what I'm rooting for. I'm not rooting for the
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: trope of like, hey be the change for this really
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: jerk off guy. You know, Ugh, yeah, that's not gonna last.
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: I'm just over it. I'm over it. Do the regular
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: Homemark Watchers like that kind of storyline because it's in
• 25:26
  Speaker 3: every single movie.
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: Does a Hallmark Watcher like a bad boy?
• 25:30
  Speaker 3: I mean, but make him like a real bad boy then,
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: you know, uh huh, Like make.
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: Him like Tyler Harn's on a motorcycle.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: There you go, that's it. Are you ready for to
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: see that? Because I would like to discuss the green
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: Bean castrole.
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: Sure, yeah, let's go.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: What is happening in this green Bee castle scene? They
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: have to create this beautiful meal. Fine, she owns a cafe. Great,
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: somehow the green bean castle is the centerpiece of this
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: entire meal. They couldn't have gotten a car go ham somewhere,
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: they couldn't have found a pie for goodness sakes, that
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: would have been beautiful. No, the green bean castle is
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: the centerpiece of this meal, and they remove it from
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: the oven and he goes, wow, that looks incredible.
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: It's green beans. No, it doesn't. It's green beans and
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: mushroom soup. She even says it's mushroom soup. She doesn't
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: even make the filling from scratch. I'm kind of a
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: whiz at a green bean castle. Yeah, it's not that hard.
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: Lady Campbell's obviously financed this movie, so they had to
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: have that product pricement. It was a one minute commercial
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: for Campbell's green bean Castle there.
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: It really was.
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: And I wow, look, if you ever come to my
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: house and the green bean castle is the centerpiece of
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: a meal, I actually like a green bean castrole. Okay,
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: I do, but the green bean castle is the centerpiece
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: of the meal. I am sorry because I have failed you.
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: There's one scene where like they're showing everybody like partaking
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: and enjoying in this wonderful meal, and there's these two
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: ladies at a table and the green bean casserole is
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: like the one she took out of the oven is
• 27:05
  Speaker 3: at the middle of this table and they like dig
• 27:07
  Speaker 3: into it like it's ice cream. Like I'm like gross. No,
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: she had a fork, her own fork and was like
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: digging into the green bean casserole. I'm like, no, you
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: serve that up with a big serving spoon. You don't
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: put it on somebody's table as a centerpiece. Nope, I
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: saw that scene with the dish on the table.
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: There are multiple tables in this room.
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: Are we to believe they made twelve separate green bean
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: castles or just one table gets it? Why is there
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: not a bufet situation set up in this.
• 27:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. Did they even
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: explain why they were having this dinner? I know he
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: got a call that somebody canceled on him to make
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: the dinner, But what was the dinner?
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: Wasn't it a veteran's dinner? Was it a veterans dinner?
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: Or was that a different movie?
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: No?
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: I think it was because I remember him saying like
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: thank you for your service or something like that. But
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: what why was that a throw a throw in? You
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: know whatever? Campbell says like, we need a commercial here,
• 28:03
  Speaker 3: it is, this is what we needed.
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: Megan to be the hero in this movie. Why is
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: she constantly coming to his rescue? She like helps him
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: wrap all those gifts and help. You need some staff, buddy, Okay,
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: I have a very big. Did you see that? Which
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: is really a WTF? And who are all of.
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: These people that are giving out Claire's personal information?
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: What are you talking about?
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: Tell me?
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: Megan sends a random Internet message to someone who oh,
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: yes or used to know her, and he says, oh,
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: this is her, this is her home, and then they
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: show up to her home and her neighbor is like, oh,
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: she's not there, she's at the retirement home. What if
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: my neighbors are telling strangers who are pulling up at
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: my home where I am, I'm going to be very upset.
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah. So we if you got a message like on Facebook,
• 28:53
  Speaker 3: because I think that's like what it was supposed to be, like, said, hey,
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: do you know John Doe from your graduating high school?
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: And you did, would you give them their address?
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: No?
• 29:03
  Speaker 3: Right, Never.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: If I was in contact with John Doe, I might
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: say so and so reached out, would you like to
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: get in touch with him? But I would not give
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: a stranger some other person's address. Stranger danger.
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: Okay, I have a minor. Did you see that? Yeah,
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: that's the beginning. When they are in Meghan's cafe, she
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: brings out what I think is a kish for Frank
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: and if you ever saw the plate, it was like
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: a slice of kish and this big like salad that
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: had slices of tomatoes on the top of it. And
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: I was like, that looks gross. He didn't even end
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: up eating it. Like he left, He's like, this is delicious.
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: He takes one by the plate.
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: Was so full when he left.
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: I just said it was so funny prop food totally so.
• 29:50
  Speaker 3: When Frank mistakes the woman in the wheelchair at the
• 29:54
  Speaker 3: retirement home as being Claire, the woman in the wheelchair
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: looked young than me, Like where did they get this extra?
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: Like they were hoping we didn't notice she looked thirty
• 30:07
  Speaker 3: and not ninety because it was a retirement home. It
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: was so funny.
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: Just don't say anything, Sit there quietly and slouched in
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: your wheelchair and nobody'll know.
• 30:17
  Speaker 3: They totally showed her face. I was like, nope, she's
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: not old at all.
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: Are we supposed to believe he wouldn't recognize her?
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: Well, Rian in love with.
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: Her and he wouldn't go what I don't.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: I don't believe it. Maybe he might be her, but
• 30:36
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: You know, Okay, I'm trying to think, like what it
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: was supposed to be like nineteen seventy one. I think
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: when they were teenagers. I don't know if I would
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: recognize somebody from high school?
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: Do you think you were the love of your life?
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: Who you were going to marry?
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: Ninety nine other people I went to high school with,
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: no if I were hoping if this was.
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: The one that got away.
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: I would hope that I would recognize this person.
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know.
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: And they both look good, but both Frank and Claire
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: look great, so I think I would recognize them.
• 31:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. I don't know if somebody I
• 31:18
  Speaker 3: don't know. You know, people change a lot in like
• 31:21
  Speaker 3: fifty years or whatever how many.
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: Years it was supposed to be.
• 31:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, my last did you see?
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: That?
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: Is something I read on IMDb And it was a
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: review and it said which btw. The reviews were on
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: IMDb were not critical. Oh everybody liked this movie quite
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: a bit.
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: But girls straight, I know.
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: But somebody had reviewed that the flashback scenes to nineteen
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: seventy one, that they had the period the time period
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: all wrong, like people would have been like hippies with
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: like long hair, like they wouldn't have been like buttoned
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: up bow tie at a.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: School there are more like fifties throwbacks that they're giving
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: instead of seventies.
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: Uh huh huh, I mean, I don't know. I actually
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: did a google. I was like images from nineteen seventy one,
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: and I did have a hard time finding images of
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: people of color, and when I did, they did not
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: look like what they portrayed in this movie. So yeah,
• 32:25
  Speaker 3: somebody didn't do that the background work.
• 32:30
  Speaker 2: What did you rate this movie.
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: Two stars?
• 32:35
  Speaker 2: I gave it two point five?
• 32:36
  Speaker 3: Oh why?
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: I thought it was sweet enough. It was not something
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: I would rewatch. It's not something that will be memorable
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: for me, but it didn't make me angry to watch
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: in the way that some of these movies do.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: Fair.
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: You and I had texted that this movie didn't have
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: like a magical Christmas feel to it. Do you still agree?
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: Yes?
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: It I think, particularly compared to some of the other
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty one movies like A Christmas Together with You,
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: like a Christmas Sale, this didn't give me those touching,
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: tear jerker, sweet wonderful moments, but it doesn't feel It's
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: not plastically homework.
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: Uh oh, you.
• 33:21
  Speaker 3: Said you'd named the title of this movie.
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: Oh, I meant my Christmas Family Tree, My Christmas Family Tree,
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: and A Christmas Sale. Those are the movies that gave
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: me the.
• 33:33
  Speaker 3: The Christmas feels, the Christmas feels, yeah, when it really
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: wasn't even like love story because A Christmas Sale was
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: to me more about like the reconnecting between like father
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: and daughter, right very much. Was there a love story
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: in that. There was a love story, but like, I
• 33:49
  Speaker 3: don't remember that. I remember it as the you know,
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: reuniting between father and daughter, and that's what made that
• 33:56
  Speaker 3: movie special. With all the Christmas stuff, I don't know,
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: this was not a good one.
• 34:02
