Transcript
- 0:00Gide gataz Mitcheer. Now, obviously we had no fresh episode of the podcast
- 0:05over the weekend. It's a bit of a hashtag blame Mitch situation, if
- 0:09you know, you know. But before we do get some fresh episodes this
- 0:12weekend, we wanted to get something in your ear holes, so we thought
- 0:15about sharing one of our old Patreon specials where we talked about our top five
- 0:21sci fi films. Maddie, Brendan and I sat in the studio just sort
- 0:25of kicking around, not necessarily what we think is the best sci fi films
- 0:28out there, but our personal top five depending on our mood, depending on
- 0:32the time of the year. It's a pretty fluid list. It's fluid even
- 0:36while we're sharing it, and sometimes five becomes eight, becomes twelve, plus
- 0:41a few honorable mentions along the way. But you will not hear the cliche
- 0:45answer, and I won't spoil it here, but Brendan shares exactly why he
- 0:49would never name the one film that everyone seems to name when they're asked about
- 0:53their top sci fi films of all time. So here's a pretty good reason.
- 0:56Me less so because I've not seen this particular film anyway, It's all
- 0:59in the upcoming special that you can find on our Patreon page and much more
- 1:03so. A big thanks to everyone who is already a Patreon supporter. If
- 1:07you would like to become one, hit uppatreon dot com forward slash, get
- 1:11into Gate and we'll see you back this weekend for a fresh episode, episode
- 1:15two hundred and forty three of the Regular World. Get into Gate, Hey,
- 1:37Patreon, get into Gate. Guys. Here, we're gonna do something
- 1:41different today. We're gonna do our top five favorite doesn't have to be the
- 1:46best, just your personal top five favorite sci fi movies that's of all time.
- 1:53That clarification helps me a lot. Yeah, it doesn't have to be
- 1:57you know, to feel like it's totally bleed because you know, I'm a
- 2:00fucking cuck. It doesn't have to be that face. It's definitely two thousand
- 2:07and one. I love the apes and they just it's just amazing. The
- 2:10mon of Earth is so No, it's a fucking boring movie. It's a
- 2:14boring ass movie. Again, it was. It was probably really impressive when
- 2:17it first came out, but it does not hold up. It's just it's
- 2:22just fear not because sci fi movies that you love yes, and our personal
- 2:28and your personal top five slay the end of season rank exactly. You know,
- 2:34it's a personal personal feelings almost like an end of season rank. I
- 2:38might be making this list up live. Okay, well, if it helps,
- 2:43So I had my list and it's on my laptop, so I'm just
- 2:47trying to Okay, well, like I can what it is, I can
- 2:50start because I can help. Are we gonna do like are we gonna go
- 2:53up? Or like, am I gonna give all five and then someone else?
- 2:54We each can like have we ranked them from like one to five?
- 2:58Or is it just a general I don't think I can rate the same.
- 3:02Look, if it helps. When you said top five your top five sci
- 3:07fi movies, gives your top five sci fi movies, I have a list
- 3:08here of eleven films. Yeah, yeah, So if it helps for you,
- 3:14Mitchell, there was a few honorable mentions. I wanted to give stuff
- 3:16that is undeniably a phenomenal sci fi film. But my we can go back
- 3:23to our chat from the Lost Boys in Hive. If I can just clarify
- 3:29things before I start, Let me tell you the movies that I haven't put
- 3:34it. Let me tell you once again that was about me. Yeah,
- 3:37I did not mean to make a joke there. So my criteria for these
- 3:43was like, if it's like a and what my criteria normally is is it's
- 3:46like, if it's like a rainy Sunday, I got nothing to do,
- 3:51what movie do I want to grab off the shelf, throw on and watch.
- 3:55So while there's movies that I'd love to add to it, like Back
- 3:58to the Future, Jurassic Terminator to Star Wars and New Hope, all phenomenal
- 4:02films, all films I love Jamungji, which apparently is a sci fi film
- 4:06according to one of the lists that we saw, but could be. So
- 4:14there's a lot of those in there that it's like, yeah, well obviously
- 4:15I love all those films. But if I'm going to go like put on
- 4:20a New Hope, I'm then going to watch every piece of Star Wars thing
- 4:24that, you know, that thing, you know, things like that.
- 4:27So it's like the things that give me like my comfort shows, my comfort
- 4:30shows. So that's what I've chosen for mine. So honorable mention too,
- 4:35this is the one that it just it just didn't make the list for me.
- 4:41So it's technically a number six position. Was butterfly effect. I fucking
- 4:44love that. The director's cut. I enjoy it. I enjoy the different
- 4:48alternat sorry, not the director's cut, director's cut with a theatrical ending.
- 4:56They don't have that though, Well they don't have that's not adventure on the
- 5:00DVD. Yeah, yeah, you know, I'm saying. I liked a
- 5:02lot of the extras along the way in the director's cut, some of the
- 5:05like just deleted scenes or expanded scenes. But the theatrical cut at the theatrical
- 5:11ending, yeah, is I don't know why they didn't why they like Yeah,
- 5:15I think depending on my mood, it's like, yeah, oh that's
- 5:17sweet. He found her again and he hasn't learned his lesson, and he's
- 5:20going to keep following her and he never learns his lesson. That's really really
- 5:25nice. And then when I'm feeling really really dark, I want to see
- 5:28a baby commit suicide. The weird the weird thing about the DVD, which
- 5:33is the director's cut. You can't buy the theatrical cut, except I managed
- 5:36to get it at a Barlei copy. I'm sure it's sitting at home somewhere.
- 5:41The alternate endings on the DVD are all are All alternate endings of the
- 5:46theatrical cut are all different versions of him walking past her. Yeah, one
- 5:48she follows him, one he follows her. One they walk away from each
- 5:51other. One they walk together and kiss or whatever. Because in the theatric
- 5:56because I went to the movies and I saw it and I was like,
- 5:58you have to watch this movie. My jos was telling all these friends watch
- 6:02this fucking movie. And they're like, they hated Ashton Kutch, but he's
- 6:04like, this movie is the fucking ship. They get it on DVD.
- 6:08It's the director's cut, fucking piece of ship. Baby's killing themselves in the
- 6:13womb. Fucking he went to the fucking lady to Red's palm you will die
- 6:18or some fucking gesshit. There's like some you were never meant to be born,
- 6:21and we're like, what the fuck is this? Okay, count that
- 6:25as a scene that I didn't like in the director's cut, Yes, yeah,
- 6:27I hat well, yeah, I think I think maybe maybe all that
- 6:30is white didn't he didn't make my list because there's just it's like, imagine
- 6:35if they released the theatric cut, because it refreshed my memory. They kind
- 6:41of meet on the street at the end, and then they go their separate
- 6:44ways. He then stops and turns around and follows her. Oh. I
- 6:50feel like the theatric cut was that they just they walked past as the best
- 6:55case. He stopped, he turned around, she kept walking. He then
- 7:00turned back the direction he was walking. Was like, Okay, I've succeeded.
- 7:03She's still alive. Yeah, she's got a great life. Look what
- 7:06she's wearing. She's a businesswoman. She's successful. And he keeps walking and
- 7:10he's like hurt all over again, but he's hurt with a purpose and he
- 7:14knows that Yeah that is because that's a that's a that's a that's a such
- 7:18a good movie, happy sacrifice and a great soundtrack. I remember that.
- 7:21I can't remember what the song was. I just know that song that was
- 7:24playing in that scene when they walked past each other made you hurt. Oh
- 7:28my god. And just the range like that Couch was able to do in
- 7:30just terms of like the douchey frat bro yeah, and then the other you
- 7:34know, you know, the one where you see where he's like an amputee.
- 7:38Yeah, yeah, just kept getting worse than for me, it was.
- 7:42There was no real plot points until the director's cut came out and I'm
- 7:45like, fire that guy. Yeah, so my official top five Jumper.
- 7:54I love that movie. I love that's That's one of those pers I wish
- 7:57there would have been sequels. That's what I was. That was set up
- 8:00so well. It was for me. It was like it was like that
- 8:01and like, I am number four almost got a run in as well,
- 8:05but I'm like, Jumper is so superior. Did anyone watched the four?
- 8:09I don't know if it was a sequel series or just like said, in
- 8:11the world of Jumper, there was a you like when YouTube were doing things
- 8:13still on my to watch list, it's like Impulse or some Impulse that's it.
- 8:16Yeah, and they and it was kind of like when YouTube was getting
- 8:20into the streaming game where they made the Karate Cobra Kai, they also made
- 8:24Impulse, and then Impulse didn't do anything, and then the Karate Kid Cobra
- 8:28Kai got sold off to Netflix. But yeah, that I've only ever seen
- 8:33that movie once when it first came out at the cinema. So we're talking
- 8:37what two thousand and four, and I thought eight. Sorry, I'm just
- 8:41trying to think of which girlfriend I was with it. I saw it with
- 8:43my high school girlfriend. Now it was with the next girlfriend. But it
- 8:46came on TV the other week and I was with my boys and we're in
- 8:50holidays, and I turned on it was about halfway two thirds of the way
- 8:52through, and I'm like, I've got to watch this ad breaks worth of
- 8:58gear and they were watching it and now were like, this is great.
- 9:01I'm like, it is and I have to turn it off because you have
- 9:03to watch this from the start. So good. Jamie Bell, Rachel Bilson.
- 9:07Yeah, and it's like Diane Lane, Dane Lane. Yeah, who
- 9:11played his dad? Was it Michael Rooker? Is he dad? Yeah?
- 9:13Yeah, Michael Rooker. I forgot he was in the fucking pulled that out
- 9:16of my ass. Brendan. Did you hear that Kristin Stewart was in that?
- 9:22That was Twilight Year two thousand and eight. Yeah, I think she
- 9:26was, yeah, like one of the mean schoolgirls or something like that.
- 9:31But you know, it's like it's like he's essentially night Crawler, and it's
- 9:33like no one would ever give night Crawler their own film, but Jumper proves
- 9:39that it fucking works and so cool. I remember he did all the good
- 9:43things that you want to do he stole money, went on top of the
- 9:46fucking Great Pyramids pyramid. Yeah, yeah, fucking that's the ship he got.
- 9:52He got off, he didn't even get off the couch, was sitting
- 9:54on the couch and then he would and fucking mace window to ruin it for
- 9:56it. Yeah, motherfucker. Yeah, he never forgave me. Next on
- 10:05my list is fifth Element. Yeah, you gotta love another one. I've
- 10:09only ever watched once really, and that would have been still when I watched
- 10:13it multi bass. Yeah, No, I love that. I've just send
- 10:15you there. There's a mean gift and it's like a really ugly bulldog that
- 10:18they've dressed up as like Leelu, like the orange mop wig, and so
- 10:20it's brilliant. Mila Jovivic though, thank you. Yeah, I like.
- 10:24I like my lady's a little more voluptuous. She's a little bit ten year
- 10:28old twelve year old boy for me, I'm like, don't ruin it for
- 10:31me. Fuck, I'm just thinking Resident Evil Extinction or whatever. The third
- 10:37walking around all dirty and dusty in the desert and carrying like those curved blades
- 10:41dice and heads off zombies and ship. I think Element might have been her
- 10:45first film. She was very very young in that and yeah, just very
- 10:48flat chested, very no hips, just very androgynous, which worked for the
- 10:52film. But yeah, when people say that they're attracted me to Jolovich,
- 10:56I think of her in that weird orange strappy thing and I go, oh,
- 11:00that's a twelve year old boy. Next one with these galaxy quests.
- 11:05Yeah, I mean, it's no secret waiting for as a trecky And that's
- 11:09like the best sort of spoof treky film in existence. Love it so good
- 11:16and the antithesis of movies like Jumper and Fifth Element that are so heavy in
- 11:20action based. It's a fucking romp. It's just so fun. I love
- 11:22it. And then those can you know, jump around anyone list, But
- 11:28my definitive, absolute top two sci fi films of all time X Men Days
- 11:33The Future Past. That is the only movie I like you. And I
- 11:37went and saw that Mitch what eight o'clock and I or whatever it was for
- 11:43the I literally went first screening the next day and saw it again by myself.
- 11:46I've never done that before or after ever. I cried so many times
- 11:54in that movie, just both sessions. Someone trying to embarrass you said both
- 11:58sessions. You saw it twice in twelve hours, had to move seats to
- 12:03tread three times both times. Even now, if I hear first time ever
- 12:11saw your face, I'm like, no, I love that one. I
- 12:16mean my top which is I mean, I guess Day's future past given that
- 12:20was Brian's singer is already controversial. But the other controversial of my top two
- 12:22Serenity Joss Weed and Serenity. I fucking love that movie. That is the
- 12:26only movie that I will definite it say is a five out of five.
- 12:30Wow, Like and we always say, always say film I watched that a
- 12:37lot when I worked in the cinemas in two thousand and five. That sounds
- 12:41a bit right, right anniversary, I'll finally watch it. Well you've watched
- 12:45the series, haven't you at this point? Yeah, Well that's the And
- 12:48this is why I can say that is a five like we always say,
- 12:52like, no film can be a five out of five. You can get
- 12:52a four stars. But for me, I saw Serenity before I knew the
- 12:58TV show even existed. Like I'm the biggest fucking Buffer fan existence, you
- 13:05know me? You know I love Jos Sweden like you know obviously now it's
- 13:09a lot harder to say that I love the things that he's made, but
- 13:16it was so poorly like marketed, Like the show Serenity that was like two
- 13:20thousand and one, two thousand and two to say something like that, I
- 13:24didn't even know it existed, and that was like I was in high school
- 13:26at that but like I graduated two thousand and one, that would have been
- 13:28prime time for me. I just didn't know it existed. So like I
- 13:33saw Serenity not having known anything about Firefly the TV show. I loved the
- 13:37film in the cinema and it maybe would have been in six months later or
- 13:41something before I was able to access Firefly, and then went back, like
- 13:46after watching Firefly, then went back and watched Serenity and loved it even more
- 13:52because so much more of it made sense, Like and at no point during
- 13:56the first time I watched it I ever feel confused, like I was never
- 14:00Yeah, but it just added so much more context to everything. And then
- 14:03said the revers the reavers, Yeah fuck, that was so exciting. You
- 14:07get to see him the first time. Yeah, man. And then being
- 14:13the fucking nerd that I am even then watching watching the movie with the audio
- 14:18commentary on, which is just just talking by himself for the entire film,
- 14:22you learn so much more about it, and then so like, I'll watch
- 14:24it and then I watch it with the audio commentary on, and then I'll
- 14:28go back and watch it again without the auto commentary. WI all those things
- 14:31afresh in my mind, and it just you know me, I love Superpowered
- 14:35Chicks, you know. I love my Buffy. I love my Charmed fucking
- 14:37River. Tam is a badass character. But there's also like, aside from
- 14:43maybe Book, which I kind of did like the fact that he was kind
- 14:46of I think that was something I missed the first time around is I didn't
- 14:50know Book was a character, so when he died, I didn't know that
- 14:52it was a big deal spoiler of it for mich Sorry, every other character
- 14:58on that show I fucking love, with the exception of Book, maybe because
- 15:03it's the religious sort of background thing. With that kind of thing. Every
- 15:05character is so well done, so interesting, and it's almost like a what's
- 15:13that old TV show in the nineties where it's like all the people it was
- 15:16kind of like inside Out before inside Out where it was like Herman's head,
- 15:20whereas like all the people living inside Herman's head all represented like different parts of
- 15:24his psyche and his character and stuff like that. I feel like that's that's
- 15:28Firefly, and that's all the best TV shows for me, the ones where
- 15:30it's like every character feels like a different part of my psyche or my thoughts
- 15:35on things. I can see myself in. Every single one of those characters
- 15:39doesn't matter all. Yeah, it doesn't matter their race, their gender,
- 15:43their political view, whatever it is. Is like there's something that I can
- 15:46like, fucking, oh god, I've blanked on his name. Adam Bourmen's
- 15:52character Jane Jane, like fucking ditch, absolute cunt, but fuck if he's
- 15:58not in attaining And there's a there's a couple of moments where he actually makes
- 16:03sense, Like he says something that's completely self serving and douchey, and you're
- 16:07like, but yeah, he's kind of right, like he can't. He's
- 16:11doing things that it's like to preserve for himself, whereas Nathan Fillion is more
- 16:18just like, well, I'm gonna I'm gonna do things. I'm gonna do
- 16:21the hard things because that's my belief. So I'm gonna stand up for the
- 16:25little guy, and I'm gonna pursue that, so I just yeah, I
- 16:27just I can't talk high enough about it. I fucking love that movie.
- 16:30So so yeah, jump a Fifth Element, Galaxy Quest, X Men,
- 16:33Days The Future Past, and Serenity to yourself a favor, guys, if
- 16:37you haven't seen him, check him out. God, yeah, are you
- 16:41talking to me? Yes? That nah? That in First Ones? We
- 16:45can you and I can just sit down. We can watch Serenity, and
- 16:47then we can watch First Ones, and then we can watch Serenity and First
- 16:51Ones with the audio commentaries on because Peter Delawize does a fantastic audio commentary on
- 16:55on the first Ones, and then we can go back and watch them both
- 16:57again without the auto commentaries after you've heard the audio commentary, so it's all
- 17:00fresh in your mind. Yeah, this sounds good. Let's do it.
- 17:06Sure, you've got four kids under ten at home, You've got that,
- 17:07You've got that kind of time, You've got that kind of leisure of time.
- 17:10That's yes'd be great. You love it? So has that giving you,
- 17:15guys enough time to write your list? I have done. I mean,
- 17:21you've got a list, So maybe I should go in the middle because
- 17:22I have not got a proper list, although I'd love to maybe work off
- 17:26some of Brendan's at the same time. But you've got this. This got
- 17:30started this conversation. We're just texting each other because there is a list out
- 17:33there, you know, someone put up and yeah, oh, here's the
- 17:37top fifty SI movies of all time. We're like, oh, that one
- 17:38makes sense? What the shit is this? You know? So there's a
- 17:41lot of that going on, and I've to compile my list somewhat. I've
- 17:45just like went through the list to John a few down and I've went,
- 17:48oh, yeah, that one I really like, and that one I remember
- 17:51liking, but I've only ever seen once. And I've found that there is
- 17:53actually a lot on here, okay less than I thought, where I remember
- 17:59really really liking it and I will tell people about it, but I've only
- 18:03ever seen it the one time. I feel like that's that's the difference.
- 18:07I think you two, in particular, I think are much more movie guys
- 18:10than I am. We both consume a lot of media, but I tend,
- 18:12I think to be the TV guy. I will sit down and rewatch
- 18:15a TV show eight times, yeah, because it's my comfort show and I
- 18:19love it. Yeah, these you will absolutely just rant and gush over how
- 18:26good a film is and you're like, yeah, sorry, I saw it
- 18:30once twelve years ago, which were like, but some of the ones I've
- 18:34written down, there's like ones here that I've seen those once and the others
- 18:38I've seen a hundred times. But it's like I love them equally and yeah,
- 18:45I need to like revisit them. Yeah, Whereas I like if I
- 18:48if I love something, whether it's a movie or a TV show, I
- 18:52have to consume it multiple times. I can't just like there's nothing that I
- 18:55and we always say like when I want to when a movie really really gets
- 18:57me, the biggest compliment I can give is like, I'm going to go
- 19:00buy that on DV I'm going to add that to my collection. Like that's
- 19:03that's going to become part of my identity, is going to be my feelings
- 19:07on that film. So it's like, if I love something, I'm gonna
- 19:08buy it on DVD. I'm not just gonna watch it once. Yeah.
- 19:11Never. And it's funny you said that I'm much more of a movie watcher
- 19:14because I've you guys ever heard of even once they joined, but heard of
- 19:18Letterbox that sounds me. It's like a subscription service. No, not a
- 19:22lake house. It's almost you could almost British. Yeah, it's not a
- 19:29social media, but you could. For lack of a better term, it's
- 19:32social media for film buffs basically. So it's a way of like, hey,
- 19:36I'm going to go on and I watched and then a Quantumania, right,
- 19:41it's out this this week. I'm going to go on. I watched
- 19:44it. You write it, you write a little log or whatever, and
- 19:47you know people might follow you or become friends or your connections. I don't
- 19:49know what they refer to them they're but basically it's just you're sharing you recommendations
- 19:55and you can put up yourso top five So it's a non toxic gotten Tomatoes
- 19:59again maybe yeah, yeah, And I might follow you because I'm like,
- 20:00well, I like Maddie's like he's top four films of all time there.
- 20:04I actually really resonate with that, and I like what he said about that
- 20:07other film. I'm gonna follow you. And it's just about reading your thoughts
- 20:11on movies. So it's almost like Twitter a bit specifically about the tweets about
- 20:15movies and stuff. So if you go there more than porn hub. That
- 20:18feels like you're kind of untrue. Recently, I've since I've got it,
- 20:23I've found myself. I've logged old films once I think about them, but
- 20:27I log very rarely. I don't watch I do not watch a lot of
- 20:32movies. And it hurts to say that. I watch so much more TV
- 20:34now just because it's like, hey, the latest episode of whatever is out,
- 20:37and you are so much more of a TV guy. But I would
- 20:41very rarely recommend a television show to you other than you know, this sort
- 20:44of realm of geek stuff that we talk about because you know, you don't
- 20:47like period pieces or something like that or whatever. So yeah, TV is
- 20:53very different like and but again, you don't want to go and rewatch a
- 20:56TV? Shall we? They? Oh my god? And you move because
- 21:00I do want to watch it from start to finish, whereas there like link
- 21:03you know, seeing Sopranos. Yet no, and here it was like last
- 21:07year, I'm like, you know what I'm going, I'm going to start
- 21:10it for the twentieth anniversary. And then I'm like, oh, it came
- 21:11out like ninety eight or something on or whatever, and I'm like, oh,
- 21:15it's it's already like twenty two years old. Oh maybe I'll wait to
- 21:18the twenty five as if I need a reason to start watching to watch it.
- 21:19But she hulk, Brennan Gardner, there's some great soprano jokes in there.
- 21:23You'll love it. I wouldn't have thought so. I mean, I
- 21:26don't think he needs to watch ten episodes for like the she was twirking or
- 21:32something. Okay, again, that's one of those in context moments she skip
- 21:37ropes naked in the comics, So twerk is fine. Yeah, listen,
- 21:41look, it was fine. I think it. Probably I wouldn't mind someone
- 21:45editing it down to like a tight you know, maybe five episodes. I
- 21:48mean shows like that, sure, but most of the last six episodes,
- 21:52and I'm like, yeah, just just give a little little ones that are
- 21:56longer, you want them to be shorter, and the ones that are shorter
- 21:57you want them to just be h And then Devil's coming in. It's like
- 22:00eighteen episodes, so that goes. We'll see how that goes. I'm very
- 22:04excited, Brennan, your list before I keep talking. Unlike Maddie Miner,
- 22:10probably a little bit more cliche. Nothing wrong with that cliche for a reason.
- 22:14Yeah, And I say cliches are just truth. People are tired of
- 22:17talking about. That's true. That's true. God, Yah, great point.
- 22:21Yeah, And I'm a huge time travel buff and I just realized four
- 22:26out of the four out of the five of time travel movies. Yes,
- 22:30so he's aren't in any particular order. But the top of the note that
- 22:36I'm reading is Judgment Day terminated too, And that's a double up because to
- 22:41me, that's one of the very few films where you can say the sequels
- 22:45better than the original. Yes, whenever anyone says, oh, what's you
- 22:48know, dame a movie where the sequels better than original? For me,
- 22:51yes, definitely Judgment Day. It's almost like a new movie. It is.
- 22:56It's almost a completely different film. And for me, it to debate
- 23:00I love having in my own head because one stage years ago when I sat
- 23:04in for a rewatch for whatever reason, and I really appreciated the horror movie
- 23:08that number one is. The first one's a horror movie, action film.
- 23:15It's a lot cleaner and Chris, but the first one is dirty and great,
- 23:18same as the Aliens franchise. It's like it's like Number one is a
- 23:22horror movie. The second one is the action movie. Yeah, Cameron reinvent
- 23:26someone else's franchise to reinvent my own franchise. Yeah, I'm pretty sure.
- 23:32As a kid, I saw Judgment Day first because my family are trash respect
- 23:37films. I actually I showed my growing Judgment Day. That was first as
- 23:41well, because you're a cool Day and they loved it. Of course they
- 23:47did awesome. I just remember like seeing Judgment Day going that was that was
- 23:51so cool. That was like my favorite movie for year. Yeah, like
- 23:55I love Time Trouble. Like my favorite Harry Potter is the third one where
- 23:56there's time trouble. That's what got me into Harry Potter was I watched the
- 24:02first I'm kids movies, third ones. Oh my gosh, ship now we're
- 24:07onto it. So just a side point, she never bought that back.
- 24:12He's a time travel device. What about years four, five, six,
- 24:17and seven, when like the Lord the Dark Lord comes back, You're going
- 24:18to use that timetrable device? And what Batman, for God's sake, what
- 24:22time travel device? What are you talking about? They took her in the
- 24:26books, that's the thing, did they. Yeah? I asked my kid
- 24:27about it the other week because he's read in why did they even bring is
- 24:30no, and I'm like, ten, what the fuck does he know?
- 24:33Smart remember stuff? I'll take your word for it. I'll tell him he's
- 24:36wrong. So I remember, yeah, watching Terminator two, and then maybe
- 24:41years later, finally seeing the first Terminator and being like, who the fuck
- 24:45is this wimpy fucking Dinah waitress? Yeah? Who is this chick? What
- 24:51is what's going on here? I'm like, that's Sarah Connor? What?
- 24:55Yeah? Yeah, I definitely watched Judgment Day first, and I think because
- 24:59it's M rating and the first one is in R possibly and I guess with
- 25:03our vintage, like what years were they eighty something and then ninety four,
- 25:07ninety one? Yeah, ninety one. Yeah, set in ninety four,
- 25:11but made it ninety one. I mean, Terminator came out before you guys
- 25:14were born, like that eighty four was the year I was born, whereas
- 25:18yeah, ninety one is more like something we're going to see as Yeah,
- 25:22we think by the time they were playing that on TV, and like ninety
- 25:26three or ninety four, we're seven and eight years old, so like we're
- 25:29ten, we're starting to watch that, you know, and then it was
- 25:32on every the poster everywhere with Arnie on the bike with the shotgun, and
- 25:37you're like, oh my god, that liquid metal like the T one thousand
- 25:41simplest poster, isn't the black background in old Dicacle? That T one thousand
- 25:45was the most terrifying thing. Yeah, I've seen. I remember for many,
- 25:49many years having a recurring nightmare of a terminator coming to my house and
- 25:56it's like we live We lived on a couple of acres at the end of
- 25:59a coulder sack, and there was this really long driveway that led up to
- 26:00the base of the colder sack, really like long, skinny driveway, and
- 26:04I had a recurring dream. I can't tell you howingy coimes I had it
- 26:08standing at the front door of the house seeing it, not even a T
- 26:11one thousand, It was like it was a triple eight, you know,
- 26:15coming down the driveway, and it would have been a good sixty meters I
- 26:22suppose, from our front door to like the bottom of the driver where I
- 26:26could see it, me being terrified seeing its glowing red eyes, running to
- 26:30the back door of my house, opening the door, and there's another full
- 26:34metal tower right at the back door, and I would wake up at that
- 26:37point that exact sequence I had that as a recurring nightmare fought and you never
- 26:42went around the front to the front door. No, the front door is
- 26:45where I saw them. At the start. We had just like the front
- 26:48door, the back door and that' seat. We had a big rectangle house
- 26:49with like a like an old queens Lander with like a veranda all the way
- 26:52around it. So it was just a front door and a back door and
- 26:56that was it. Yeah you like it, Yeah, that's it. So
- 27:00yeah, that's yeah, that's that's the solid that's a solid film. And
- 27:06plus this list has like changed things for me in terms of like, all
- 27:11right, this is like another level. Yeah, when you're young and you
- 27:14watch Terminator too. The next one on the list, Back to the Future
- 27:18too, I think that there's another one that beats to see the original,
- 27:22and but it's only good because of the first one as well. Yeah,
- 27:26yeah, it needs that setup to get there. But yeah, I think
- 27:30I've probably watched two more than anything else. And something I'm so proud of
- 27:33that I had nothing to do with, but I will take all the credit
- 27:36for it is my seventeen year old niece Sophie. The Back to the Future
- 27:41trilogy that's her comfort show. She's seventeen, Like she's literally in grade twelve
- 27:45in high school this year. She's been watching those films since she was probably
- 27:49twelve, and she's one of those ones. She would just put it on
- 27:52in the background and it is always running. She fucking loves it and they're
- 27:56pretty what are they like one hundred minute movies? Maybe? Like I remember
- 28:00one day had the trilogy box set and just one day it was I very
- 28:03rarely do it, have ever really done it, but one day just sitting
- 28:06there, you know, like late teens, absolute slob. You know,
- 28:08I'm not working and not studying that day. What else am I going to
- 28:12do when it's beautiful outside and I could be doing exercise? No, I'm
- 28:15going to watch the Back to the Future trilogy back to back to back and
- 28:18just knocked it off in like, you know, four and a half hours.
- 28:22Yeah, and it's you know, you could see someone could tell me,
- 28:26oh yeah, nineteen eighty four. That was their intent was to make
- 28:29a you know, they did Lord of the Ring style. They filmed them
- 28:30all sequentious as filmed them all together. Yeah exactly. They didn't do that,
- 28:33but like it just feels like this one great continuous story. I was
- 28:37watching because my my ex girlfriend when I first got the box set the same
- 28:42as you, I got this new amplifier and then the box set of Back
- 28:47the Future, so it was like, crank it, yeah, Subwolf,
- 28:49you know, full the whole thing. And then she noticed, yeah,
- 28:55and then she noticed. She's like, where did this whole chicken thing come
- 29:00from? Because it wasn't in the first movie. And I'm like, oh,
- 29:02yeah, don't call me chicken really in the first movie at all,
- 29:07that was just a not even a part of his character ship. I was
- 29:11like, oh, yeah, interesting, crazy and then obviously it pays off
- 29:15for them the third one. Yeah, but yeah, it's yeah, well
- 29:19two and three they did do it back to back. Yeah they did.
- 29:22Yeah, yeah they did. I was thinking of my own head, I'm
- 29:23like, yeah, but it feels yeah because and then they redo the end
- 29:29of the first one with the different actress, which I didn't even notice for
- 29:34years. I think she might have pointed out to me. I'm like,
- 29:37what all the same? And the recasting of the dad as well. Yeah,
- 29:40they he sued them. You know, Marty's dad, Glover was rare.
- 29:45He never he under did the first the first one, and he's not
- 29:52in the other one different it's a different actor. They cut it. They
- 29:53spliced him in from the first one. They reused that shot and the second
- 29:59one is the different actors hanging upside down. They they re used the cast
- 30:03of his face and on the other actor. Ah, so it's still meant
- 30:07to look like him. It's not like yeah, yeah, okay, good.
- 30:08I was going to say, I'm like Crispin Gloves, but okay,
- 30:11that makes more sense. But yeah, he's He ended up suing them for
- 30:15that. Yeah, that's right, because you guys, I don't believe you
- 30:17should be able to use an actor without their permission and don't give them about
- 30:21that now that you say that, because I wouldn't have even I would have
- 30:25not played it that way because I didn't like the way that guy played it.
- 30:26Yeah, I'm like there was one scene Jeffrey Weissman played George McFly dons
- 30:33in the future. It's one of those great Hollywood stories as well, like
- 30:38Michael J. Fox wasn't in the film originally, Like yeah, exactly,
- 30:42they shot they reached so much of that film and they were just watching it.
- 30:48I don't know it wanted family ties. That's why it's all the first
- 30:52ones all at night, Yeah, and talking about Butterfly. Fact, that's
- 30:55who it was, the creepy dad filming them in the basement. That was
- 30:57the original Marty McFly, Eric Stealt, that's rare. It was, that's
- 31:00him, and you're like, wow, Marty McFly or Michael J. Fox
- 31:03went on, he's no one doesn't like yeah, Michael J. Fox.
- 31:08Yeah, I just don't like not to say that. Like dog Hollywood there
- 31:14I could guarantee Zamechas they couldn't have him, and they're like just try this
- 31:18guy. And then he's like all right, yeah, nearly finished. Cool.
- 31:22Sorry, Michael, you're going to be working twenty four hours a day
- 31:26film the day. We'll see it at nighttime. I don't know when you're
- 31:27going to sleep, mate, that's your prop. But that's his trilogy badly,
- 31:32Like he was huge in Family Ties, but that was that made him.
- 31:36If you someone says Michael J. Fox, you think of back have
- 31:37we're here doing like a top five top three greatest chemistry between two characters,
- 31:42two actors, two performers of all time, Doc Brown and Marty McFly.
- 31:48Yeah, and they ages look together like like you can't get a better I
- 31:53can't think right now of a better pairing in film than those two. They're
- 31:56timing together works so well, and you leaves their friends. It's a weird
- 32:00friendship. You don't focus on the fact that, oh, that's not actually
- 32:04like his grandpa and just some old guy that he's hanging out with. And
- 32:07at no point does it get creepy at all, Like it's so, how
- 32:13does he know him? I'm going to go hang out with that old guy.
- 32:15He's going to got a sick amp, weird Eastern European terrorists that are
- 32:19wanting to steal put tone. Yeah, it's not like he's even working for
- 32:22him as like an assistant or he's he's a he's a wacky you know,
- 32:28college professor and Marty's getting college credit while he's at high school. Nothing.
- 32:32They're just friends, yeah, and that's okay. They're just they're just friends
- 32:37with science. In the eighties, that was okay. He can be friends
- 32:40with the weirdo yeah around the street, and it holds up. Yeah,
- 32:44there's no point you can twenty twenty three and you know I think might have
- 32:46changed is that he went into his house when he was not there fucked his
- 32:52amp up and then answered his phone. You're like, oh, these guys
- 32:55are clearly friends. He's there. That's it doesn't start with him walking in
- 33:01hey dark. There's no that awkward moment. Let's explain this situation. Just
- 33:07drop in the middle of it. Yeah, at no point, as anyone
- 33:10ever said, like giving them a Batman Robin treatment, it went, they
- 33:14were more than just friends. Yeah, yeah, like at all. Yeah,
- 33:16no, perfect so good because Doc's asexual, I'm pretty sure no,
- 33:22because he gets with Mary the Virgin. I mean, who wouldn't they You're
- 33:28sexual and Mary Virgin number dance now number three on my list and Richard number
- 33:36three on my list is the Matrix. It's just was the game changer,
- 33:43and I think it's the perfect mm. Everyone that I know either, especially
- 33:51when it came out, didn't. They either didn't like it because they didn't
- 33:54understand it, or they didn't finish watching it because it was just too weird
- 33:59for him. I I remember a couple of my I guess in a in
- 34:04an endearing term, where do I call you guys as well? My bromates
- 34:07like high school like the bros, like the guys that are on the football
- 34:09team. And the basketball team and stuff like that. I know they all
- 34:13fucking wrothed over that movie, Like, and I love the first Matrix as
- 34:17well, but I remember one of my friends particularly getting even into like just
- 34:22after the Matrix there was like all the animated stuff that came out that like
- 34:24expanded the universes, like that Animtrix that's it. Yeah, they were frothing
- 34:30over that, and I was like, oh, go fucking relaxed. There'd
- 34:32be such fucking nerds. Me saying to like these like the guys on the
- 34:37basketball team, being like, maybe such fucking nerds. What are you doing?
- 34:40God? What me with my my my school binder with just a collage
- 34:45of like handmade Buffy collage on my thing, Like, and I'm going,
- 34:50don't be such fucking nerds watching the Animatrix and getting Sarah, It's just a
- 34:53movie, you, Sarah Michelle. Yeah, I really enjoyed the first one,
- 34:59but can't cap the other ones. Yeah, I didn't say anything about
- 35:01the other one. Yeah, yeah, And I think I think that always
- 35:05like skews my preference alone. I just I just kind of grew and I
- 35:07shouldn't, you know, I just group more together. But yeah, I
- 35:10just feel like there was enough gap. And I mean I enjoyed the sequels,
- 35:15that's for sure. I enjoyed the reload. You had some good stuff.
- 35:17Three Yeah, three was okay, just changed everything completely, or wasn't
- 35:23as bad as I thought it was going to be. She's a twenty year
- 35:27anniversary of the sequels. They both came out in two thousand and three.
- 35:30Yeah, I've never rewatched Revolutions. That's the third one. We should I
- 35:35think you should watch them all bad Back. I bought that ship the day
- 35:38it came out on DVD. I was so excited to go and buy it,
- 35:42and I bought it. I've never opened that case. The ending was
- 35:45disappointing. Yeah, and I think that was it. I remember we all
- 35:49went and saw it together. I think even did we all? I think
- 35:53we came to my house. We watched Number one, we watched Number two,
- 35:58watched some of the Animaterix. I think we've played Enter the Matrix video
- 36:00game. Like we were getting so sucked up. Someone drove to the macas
- 36:04bought a whole ship ton of burgers and brought him back. And we went
- 36:06and saw a four o'clock session and one of our mutual friends of Brendan and
- 36:10I he like it's his religion, like he honestly, I think he like
- 36:15he knew, he knows he's living in a a simulation and artificial environment.
- 36:23He was, so he just sat there, was down, like we left,
- 36:30and like I was a staunched, like I was such a stupid movie.
- 36:32I mean I am, but like way too early, Like I'd sit
- 36:36there and like I've got to watch the credits to pay tribute to the people
- 36:38that made the film, and so people would quit of kind of hang out
- 36:43because I would stay there or they would leave and just wait outside the door
- 36:45while I sat there until like the curtains closed and we just used to do
- 36:50what we do now, just took ship. I feel that because I am
- 36:55I'm a borderline introvert around people that like I don't really know and trust really
- 37:00really well. I get so self conscious about stuff. Finally, after like
- 37:05finding you guys, and I was hanging out, like after going and watching
- 37:07like The Force Awakened and having such a great time coming back here fucking playing
- 37:13with our lightsabers and taking photos and stuff like that. For the first time
- 37:16ever in my entire life, I got dressed up to go to a movie.
- 37:21I got dressed up as a fucking Jedi and then went and saw The
- 37:25Last Jedi. Oh no, I have ever been more disappointed in my entire
- 37:31life. Jerry felt, that's a shack, it's a shave. You've had
- 37:38a taste of mine. That's my problem when I go out of my way
- 37:43because I love I love a dressed up, I love theming up for a
- 37:45movie premier yere. When I have really gone at like so either time spent
- 37:51building something or making something, or money spent buying something, that's when it's
- 37:58been really disappointing. I spent three hundred dollars on a movie replica leather jacket
- 38:04of Wolverines for Wolverine origins. That shit hurt. II. I made clause,
- 38:09grew chops, bought that thing, brought the dog tags, had that
- 38:14I wore, three layers, had like the khaki color, had a gray
- 38:16single shirt, the denim shirt back and the like, and then the boots.
- 38:22I had everything, and I was so disappointed, and I made I
- 38:25made like an iron Man gauntlet. Thank god Brennan Brendon's sister had a dress
- 38:31up. I guess it would have been twenty first and Brennan went his Wolverine.
- 38:37I went as Iron Man, so I got to reuse my like one
- 38:39armed gauntlet with like the wires going up and onto my experience chair. Impressed.
- 38:44It's very cool you you went to a film wearing nothing but a white
- 38:46wife beater. Yeah, black, the black black was black, but had
- 38:51the light coming through my chairs, all these wires coming out and the gauntlet
- 38:54light in my hand. Great good made it for Iron Man three. Yeah,
- 39:00it's again extremely disappointed. Like the amount of times, yeah, I
- 39:05just was sitting there in a cinema like, oh my god, look at
- 39:07me. And then other times where I've really wanted to but haven't had the
- 39:10time, and then I go to a movie and I love it, and
- 39:13I'm like, oh, thank god, I didn't ruin it by going to
- 39:15all this extra trouble. I told my niece and her husband, I said,
- 39:19I'm not inviting you guys to movies anymore because the two times we invited
- 39:22them to like premieres and stuff, well I invited to premiers we've gone to
- 39:24was for the first Suicide Squad and Ghostbusters. Yeah we all knew Ghostbusters was
- 39:31gonna eat shit. Yeah, so I just go you know what, I'm
- 39:34not gonna invite you guys anymore. You're you're a bad omen. I feel
- 39:38like he gave them the dregs of the tickets. Yeah, shit number four
- 39:46for me, And this one's a bit different. I got hard into this
- 39:52when I was a kid. Is the original nineteen sixties Planet of the Apes?
- 39:57Yeah? Really, And I watched the show and everything, and I
- 40:00just I just found it so fascinating that and then he because his throats,
- 40:07he gets injured at the start when he lands on the planet, and they
- 40:14just they were the apes are like the humans. I'm just explaining the plot.
- 40:19The bit that's fascinating for me was like he couldn't speak for half of
- 40:23it, and so they're like, oh, look at this guy's kind of
- 40:25clever, and then you know, the whole thing evolves and then it's actually
- 40:31he just came from the past and landed back on and it's like, oh
- 40:37fuck, that's such a great, great twist. You don't even realize it
- 40:42until the last shot, last frame. Yeah, the movie very much like
- 40:49I saw. It's what is it the Donald Sutherland like the Invasion of the
- 40:52Body Snatches thing, Like, it's very similar. I haven't seen that.
- 40:55Right at the end, it's just like him just going what it's faked black.
- 40:59It's a very similar kind of like of that era Twilight Zone kind of
- 41:05kind of ending and stuff like that. Obviously, like you know, the
- 41:07plot of Planet X was ruined for me when I was like ten by the
- 41:10Simpsons. Yeah, so much for us. I went to La over Christmas.
- 41:15I went to Disneyland. I lined up for like forty minutes just to
- 41:20go through that stupid Small World ride just because of the Simpsons. Everyone's like,
- 41:23you're a grown asked man, why do you want to go through the
- 41:25Small World? Rude? I'm like, because Simpsons did it? Yeah,
- 41:28yeah, so yeah. So it's like I remember how many years maybe five,
- 41:32six years ago? I think I borrowed all like your DVD set of
- 41:36all the Planet of the Apes films. Did you. I was about to
- 41:37say that Brendan borrowed mine. I don't know that you did. Yeah,
- 41:42you guys are welcome, because I was curious about it. And it's like,
- 41:44obviously like I went in knowing that ending. So I found them a
- 41:46little bit slow, and there's that weird They are slow because sixties and it
- 41:51pops up on my my memories either on Instagram or Facebook every year of like
- 41:54me posting the photo it just looks really really it's like three of the astronauts
- 41:59all just like naked showering in a waterfall together and there's just one shot where
- 42:02you just see him from the waist up and they're all kind of looking down
- 42:05at each other's junk. Is what looks like. And I remember posting that
- 42:08because I was like, what the fuck am I watching? And I think
- 42:12I love that those movies because most of them are about time travel. Yeah,
- 42:16and I struggled. I ended up going back and watching the newer ones,
- 42:22the Andy Serkis ones, just because I struggled. There's no twist,
- 42:27you know. Even the Mark Wahlberg one had a bit of a twist,
- 42:30yeah, yeah, because it was kind of like a remake of the original
- 42:32one, but not like the way that it ended was like, oh,
- 42:36I know we're going off in a way different direction now. Yeah, I
- 42:37think, well, like skipping to one of the sequels kind of. I
- 42:40think the one that I've watched the most of is the James Franco one,
- 42:45the First Rise, the Andy Cirkis Ones. Yeah, I remember the second
- 42:47one having a really great experience. I think it was like what meets you
- 42:51Me and Lincoln when saw it, like the Myace and I remember having an
- 42:53amazing experience, which I often do with you two, because Lincoln in particular
- 42:58so animated during films, just like that moment where it's like the POV Show
- 43:01and it's just like, you know, the monkey, you know, in
- 43:04the turret of a tank, just like three sixty, just like that was.
- 43:07We talked about it in the car. Another one, aren't they They
- 43:10just wrapped production this week? Wow? Yeah, geez, what's it called?
- 43:15It was filmed in Australia too, Um, oh geez, it was,
- 43:20Yeah, I saw'm googling it. I feel like, yeah, the
- 43:23Frank frankline. I love the one after that. I love the most recent
- 43:28one. It was fine Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. That's right,
- 43:32that's going to be. I just hope they'd jump ahead. I think
- 43:36they will. Yeah, yeah, well, I think that was part of
- 43:37the fun of the original ones. Is yet it was like suddenly we're going
- 43:40to jump forward ten thousand years or whatever it is, and it's you know,
- 43:45they do. I feel get progressively worse. But then every now and
- 43:47then they'll just be a little peak and just like, oh this bit's fun.
- 43:51Yeah yeah, but no, that's respectable. Yeah, just the original
- 43:55just you know, it's got so many classical hands off for your damn dirty
- 43:59apes. They're like not even the fact that he said something offensive, but
- 44:04just he could speak. Yeah. Yeah. And it's iconic, like the
- 44:07amount of ways and different things that have parodied that. Yeah, even Archer,
- 44:12one of my favorite shows of all time. It's just like, oh
- 44:15damn, you blew it up. You damn sounds a bit like and it's
- 44:19a recurring joke in that show. It's so good. My last one,
- 44:23I've struggled putting something in there, and I've it's a toss up for me,
- 44:31and I'm just gonna have to say Interstellar just because how much I really
- 44:37just I love that. I was going to be the one to make matter
- 44:40angry. Bring up Christopher Nolan film because I have got that down there.
- 44:44I was like, bring up a good one like Inception, or maybe I
- 44:47like Interstella. I think that's, apart from maybe Memento, that could be
- 44:53my most favorite. Not that that's a sci fi but that's another movie I've
- 44:58only seen once. And I as far as Crystal. I'll tell you what
- 45:02though, if I'm gonna watch one of Yeah, if I'm gonna watch it
- 45:07his films, it's gonna be thirty three postcards Priscilla for me, Oh no,
- 45:13you h' weaving. He was, I'm gonna watch a Guy Pis movie,
- 45:16it's gonna be three postcards. Obviously out Lincoln, he your Interstellar is
- 45:23It's what I have. I think I've only seen it twice actually, but
- 45:29that might be my favorite. Honestly, I think about Hans Zimmer. He
- 45:31wrote that score and now it's just the theme music for anything fucking Amazing,
- 45:37every real, any good. And it's the Cornfield chase, Matt McConaughey driving
- 45:44through a field, and it's like, this is how we explain black holes
- 45:46to people. And I'm like, I believe it because this music is phenomenal.
- 45:51It's like it's I think it's his best score. But I understand why
- 45:55people hate that last scene. But for me, the reason I love it
- 45:59is because he's sacrificing himself. There's the time dilation when he goes down to
- 46:06the black hole. Everybody else ages and he basically he basically sacrificed his life
- 46:14but also wasted his life for his daughter. And I just thought that was,
- 46:21especially the part where he comes up and he's crying because she's sending him
- 46:22all the messages and stuff. I was just like, fuck me, I'm
- 46:27mom. And it was twenty minutes or an hour, you know, for
- 46:30him, And every every tick while they're on that while they're on that planet
- 46:35is a year in the score, it's every one point two seconds. I've
- 46:39only seen it once, but it really is the epitome of the phrase,
- 46:45oh God, what else is boring? For me? I'm just like and
- 46:50like, you guys know me, I'm the crier. I'm the one that
- 46:52gets emotionally invested in things and will cry in films. I didn't have an
- 46:58emotional reaction to anything that happened in that film. And I'm a I'm a
- 47:02pretty big sci fi bath so I'm not going to like or I didn't understand
- 47:06it. It's like, no, I got it, but I just didn't
- 47:08care. To be fair though, once it gets to the end and it's
- 47:14the whole bookcase thing that I didn't understand. Yeah, the yeah, but
- 47:21but it makes up The one benefit for me is obviously all the memes that
- 47:23have come out of McConaughey crying like that's that's the carrying that up with ridiculous
- 47:34themes. I saw it used the other day and I can't remember the show
- 47:37they were referencing. I'm just I'll pick any kids show. But it was
- 47:39like the bit of him like screaming banging to his daughter to like, you
- 47:44know, not let him leave as a younger self. You know, he's
- 47:46banging through the bookcases. No no, And it was the real was future
- 47:52me banging on a window glass window? Is the future me trying to warn
- 47:58my younger self about letting my kid watch Bluey for the first time, something
- 48:01like the show that they will only ever watch forever now And it was like
- 48:06a person crying outside in the rain. Never go to KFC. Yeah right,
- 48:10we could do one for get going don't watch Stargate origins. I just
- 48:15don't do it. That's not a question we need answering. But that move
- 48:19made you thinking you could talk about Star Trek dur going in with all your
- 48:23notes. I love all this relatable trivia made bringing starget Star Trek trivia to
- 48:29a Stargate podcast, right, It just pictured you in your study writing Star
- 48:34Trek so like happily and this is a reference to I know wants to be
- 48:43know Brendan and Reese at this point, but this will surely win them over.
- 48:46They're Star Wars and Stargate fans. They must be Star Trek fans.
- 48:51They're gonna love to know that this actor was in it. It's it's a
- 48:58film that I watched. I must have went to the previous screening and then
- 49:02didn't go back and watch it, so I saw it before really any reactions,
- 49:07and I fucking loved it. And it was when I'm like, I
- 49:09can't wait to take Lincoln will love this. There's so much cool sci fi
- 49:13shit going on in this. He will fucking love it, and I have
- 49:15to be the one to watch it with him for the first time. And
- 49:17I didn't go for five or six weeks. I think it was getting close
- 49:22to the end of its theatrical run, and all through that time there was
- 49:29a lot I really only heard a lot of the negative feedback, whether it
- 49:31was the bookcase stuff or just general sort of whatever it was. I think
- 49:36it was a lot of people didn't like that he went. He managed to
- 49:38survive a black hole, yeah, which is fair enough. Yeah yeah,
- 49:42fair enough. Yeah yeah. But even if it wasn't one particular thing,
- 49:45it was just people like going, you know what he shot for the stars
- 49:46and whatever. I just listened to a lot of really negative stuff. That
- 49:51idea was like the ancients stopped him from dying and put him in there to
- 49:57give the signal to his daughter, yeah, to get Yeah. Maybe that's
- 50:00what I didn't like about was the funny we spoke about this a few months
- 50:04ago on the Gate podcast was the Dio sex Machina of yeah this they had
- 50:08a wormhole and they're like, how did that get that? We don't know
- 50:09where the worm hop up or who put it there? And you know how
- 50:13to get them? Like? It made me. I liked the I liked
- 50:16the AI robots that the way they moved was like old school nineteen sixties nobly
- 50:21the ninety sixties robot things. This is so unusual. I love it.
- 50:24It wasn't sexy, it was it was like practical, but still like,
- 50:29how have you not perfected this? Yeah? Even better? I remember what
- 50:30confused the end of that scene there, because I'm like, why are they
- 50:32in two feet of water? But then suddenly there's like a wave is about
- 50:37to kill them or something. But it's like a wave of time or I
- 50:38don't know. I'm like a wave of time and there's something in that with
- 50:44that. You might need to rewatch it. Yeah, they're running at some
- 50:45point in that. Yeah, there's a gigantic title wave. Yeah, they're
- 50:49in two feet of water and it came out of nowhere. It's an alien
- 50:53planet, didn't Didn't time have something to do with because they would just know
- 50:57they were there, that they were closer to a black hole than their ship.
- 51:00That was the time thing was that they went down there for like half
- 51:01an hour and they came back up and it had been twenty years. Yeah.
- 51:05Time. I just thought that the big tidal wave was to do with
- 51:07that as well or something. No, not not time. It was more
- 51:09like the TICKI in that scene was every one point two seconds, like I
- 51:15said, and that represented a year. All is gone. But that's why
- 51:22that scene was so intense for me, because I'm like, hurry up.
- 51:24Yeah, did they know that going down? Yeah, they knew that it
- 51:28would be They knew that it would affect them somehow. I don't know if
- 51:30they had a specific like an exact time, they just go, hey,
- 51:34look, no, they did go to work. I think it's going to
- 51:36work. Yeah, I think we're good. If we find it, it's
- 51:38good, but we have to get back. And then they knew time would
- 51:43have passed. She fell over. They like told the machine to go get
- 51:46it because the waves coming, they couldn't find what they were looking for.
- 51:50They found the ship destroyed and the beacon yeah went off. But yeah,
- 51:55by the time they got back, it has a long bitch too, isn't
- 51:59she and she closed through hours it's maybe two forty maybe, But I just
- 52:04at that moment where they get back, they dock onto the to the to
- 52:07the ship and the door opens and the black guy they're with, and he's
- 52:10like got this gray gray beard. Yeah, what the fuck? And like
- 52:15how long has it been. He's like it's been twenty years. And I'm
- 52:16like, oh my, you've been there by you. Oh my god,
- 52:20I know it's fucking by the way. He's all this stuff from your family,
- 52:23and he's watching messages that his daughters are growing up and like loving him,
- 52:27missing him to like fucking resenting him, and that the fucking world's dying
- 52:30and they've accomplished nothing it's been half an hour and they've done. Oh well,
- 52:35we missed out there. What's Oh billions of people have died because they're
- 52:37sick of eating corn. Damn it like the sick of eating If I one
- 52:43more fucking corn, I'm gonna kill myself. But what I was surprised about
- 52:47is it forgot about the magic corn? Is it? I watched it,
- 52:51I loved it. I didn't go out and seek negative feedback, but I
- 52:57was interested in the negative feed because I loved it so much. I was
- 52:59in interested in listening to the negative critique of it. It was I didn't
- 53:02expect that, no, And then going in and then so I'm like,
- 53:06you know what, that they're right about that? And oh yeah, I'm
- 53:08probably being too optimistic about that. Okay, I'm going to go see it
- 53:13with link. And I came out of it, and I remember going,
- 53:15nah, I fucking love it. I remember actually saying those words out loud,
- 53:19maybe not even to Lincoln. I was like, nah, no,
- 53:22no, I fucking love that. And I've never rewatched it. I saw
- 53:24the end of it on TV the other week where he's talking to his daughter
- 53:28as an old woman. Yeah, and I kind of wish that I,
- 53:30you know, didn't watch as much as what I did. But that's and
- 53:32I've told my kids about that movie as well. Hey, they go to
- 53:36this planet the time dialation thing and whatever. I don't know that they were
- 53:38not going to do it in a half hours, but they like watch all
- 53:40of Star Gates exact Planet of the Future. It's funny because I have asly
- 53:50learn thing with Lincoln. I remember when we all went and saw X Men
- 53:52Apocalypse and I was pretty much not into that movie from about the ten minute.
- 53:59Yeah, and I remember it's all coming out and being very quiet,
- 54:01and yeah, it was pretty good. It's good. Yeah, it was
- 54:04good, and I was looking to gone. Yeah. Yeah, I felt
- 54:08really bad because I was like, I felt like everyone enjoyed it and I'm
- 54:10there just going that was fucking atrocious. It was all over the show.
- 54:15Yeah. But yeah, I have some honorable mention honorable mentions, but I'll
- 54:22let Mitch does. Yeah, okay, first I'm going over here. I'll
- 54:30save. I'll save, like if there's a definitive one, because it might
- 54:31actually be my you know, it's it's almost like my go to favorite movie
- 54:35of all time. If I don't know what to say, I say this
- 54:37one, I'll say, I'll say we can redo this in a year.
- 54:39It could be different. It will be different because I don't have a list
- 54:43here. I'm like, I've went through that top fifty that where we sort
- 54:45of gave us the idea of doing this. I've got a list of movies
- 54:49I've seen once that I love but I've never rewatched the second time, but
- 54:52I probably should. Other ones I've seen a hundred times, and I've got
- 54:54even a couple here that are like some I think underrated as well. That's
- 55:00where you're the optimist is It's like you will go and see a movie once,
- 55:04love it, and never have to see it again, and that's it.
- 55:06And you have that perfect memory by them, and I want to watch
- 55:08them and I just don't. Yeah, that's what I mean. But you
- 55:10don't. So you have this perfect memory in your head of just this fantastic
- 55:14viewing experience. Yeah, Whereas Yeah, I'm that one that will go and
- 55:16like want to watch it twenty times until I hate it. Yeah, Like,
- 55:22I watch it twenty times and either love it even more or I hated
- 55:24it. Oh it doesn't hold up. Do you know what marriage is?
- 55:30Well, we'll start off and it wasn't maybe going to be my top five,
- 55:31but I'm like, oh, this is like an honorable mention one.
- 55:35And I haven't seen this a bunch of times, but working off you saying
- 55:37Planet of the Apes, I loved. I remember walking out of the James
- 55:42franco one Rise of the Planet of the Apes. Gun, Wow, that
- 55:44was that was a lot better than I expected it was going to be,
- 55:45Like because the Mark Wahlburg one was the Mark Wahlburg one, and I love
- 55:49the Warburg one. So do I feel like because that was my introduction to
- 55:52the franchise, that was the first Planet of the Apes movie? Not there
- 55:55hell on a bottom CARDI one, sure, absolutely? And then Jim Burton
- 56:00Yeah, and then I saw the James Franco one. I'm like, that
- 56:04was for whatever reason, that was just better than what I was expecting.
- 56:07I don't know what I expected. Actually, I didn't like it because I
- 56:09felt it was boring. Well that it wasn't a Planet of the Apes.
- 56:14Yeah, yeah, but it was a cool prequels like oh that's how it
- 56:16happened, Yeah, And I appreciated that, and they had like little ties
- 56:20to the well I guess was the original if they ever wanted to explore that
- 56:22or if it was designed to be a prequel to the original definitively, but
- 56:27then seeing the second one and talking about that, that one, the session
- 56:31that we saw together Maddie and Lank I, I fucking loved Dawn of the
- 56:37Planet of the Apes, the second one where it's ten years after the outbreak,
- 56:39humanity is scarce. Look that they don't they don't get along with the
- 56:44Apes, they don't fight them. She's like, fuck, We'll stay over
- 56:45here. You fucking stay where you are, Just leave us the fucking line.
- 56:49Yep. And I love the Australian actor in it, Jason Clark,
- 56:52who's the lead actor in the film. He's fantastic, And I think,
- 56:58yeah, he was in the Ship One, actually he was. He was
- 57:00John Connor and in Genesis, yeah, he was. He in Lincoln's film
- 57:05as well. Was he a Black Site? Yeah, he's the he's the
- 57:07bad guy in Black Site. Yeah, and so I I love that guy.
- 57:09I love the movie. And Andy Serkis, I'm like, how Is
- 57:13and films are incredible. I'm like, how and Circus is digging a heart
- 57:17beat? You love that? I know. Nely Targets interview and I think
- 57:21I might have told him that, and I You're like, hang on,
- 57:24You're in Star Wars too, that's it? Yeah, what what's that phrase,
- 57:30Lord of the what's that phrase? Suck you Dad's Dad's dick just to
- 57:37get a taste of what you made off Jesus, No, I've never heard
- 57:40that. It's a different night. You're remembering Lickey Dad's dig just to taste
- 57:45your assholes. That sounds like sure, But I'm like, how why am
- 57:53I getting some I'm getting emotionally connected to these eights And I would come at
- 57:58defending those movie. Oh my god. So the sequels better than the I
- 58:02like two, I like threes, in the in the Snow, Snow,
- 58:07the War, right, So that was the thing I watched Dawn. I
- 58:08think War was Harrisson at least three maybe, I think it was three years.
- 58:15It was twenty fourteen, was Dawn. It was twenty seventeen, I
- 58:16think for War. And I only rewatched Dawn the night before I went and
- 58:22saw War, and I made my wife watch it him. No, you've
- 58:25honestly, I know you don't like the idea of watching this movie about apes,
- 58:30but trust me, it's it's fucking brilliant, and I didn't come away
- 58:35liking it as much as I remembered having. No, it's really good,
- 58:37but that was just something about that first experience. And then I went and
- 58:40watched War, and I think the first experience watching War almost as good as
- 58:45watching Dawn for the first time. But there were moments in that where the
- 58:47little girl, mute girl, is connecting with Caesar, who's who's in the
- 58:52snow. He's caged up this fucking music that's playing, and she's feeding him
- 58:57through. He's been beaten and tortured and she's feeding him through the cages,
- 59:00and I'm like, why am I connecting to this little girl and a guy
- 59:06wearing a green suit with ping pong balls on it, playing an ape?
- 59:07It doesn't make sense, But I like as a trilogy, like the first
- 59:12one for me is the weakest, but it's still for me, it's a
- 59:15very good movie, but it's the weakest of the three, which is it
- 59:16says a lot for that trilogy. So that's it. It's like, it's
- 59:22an honorable mention. Even though I've I've never rewatched War, I've watched Dawn
- 59:24twice. I think watched them because I watched them again recently in quick succession
- 59:31every Saturday. Okay, like whatever it was, Yeah, I should I
- 59:36do need to Actually, it might have been. I've seen the first one
- 59:38several times, like when it showed up on TV and stuff like that.
- 59:42It's yeah, I enjoyed that. It is better than I remembered, maybe
- 59:45because I was just expecting a twist, because I'm like every Apes movie has
- 59:47a twist. Yeah, Dawn may have been the Rise Dawn, which was
- 59:52the second one, Dawn. It should have been Rise. If they knew
- 59:55what they were going to do, it should have been Dawn. Actually have
- 59:59to said, guys, this amazing, or I might have sent you guys
- 1:00:01read in the group chat. It's someone they've they've reshuffled the names of the
- 1:00:06nine Star Wars into the right order. Yeah. Yeah, I've got it
- 1:00:09sent to me again today by another friend. Did you like it or something?
- 1:00:14Because I saw it today as well. But yeah, it's funnily enough,
- 1:00:17as I was giving a shit for it before, We'll not so much
- 1:00:20shit but just mention it, but that we had such a positive viewing of
- 1:00:23that second film, you mean link when we went to the Cinet. I
- 1:00:27don't know that I've been back. I may have been back once, but
- 1:00:30like I don't own them on DVD or anything like that. Like I don't
- 1:00:34own of those films. Yeah, I don't know that I've intentionally seeked out
- 1:00:39that movie again. Yeah, but I do remember just having such a positive
- 1:00:44and such an enjoyable experience watching it, and yeah, yeah, enjoying it
- 1:00:46A hell of Dawn was If it wasn't my favorite movie of twenty fourteen,
- 1:00:51it was top two, top three war it was one that they're all on
- 1:00:55Disney Plus I think, yeah, yes, yeah, and I chase it
- 1:01:00before that on disty Price for years and years and years. I'm like,
- 1:01:01I'm gonna buy that, and I'm gonna buy that in blue ray and buy
- 1:01:04that in Blu ray, and I just it was one that I'm like,
- 1:01:06I've got to add it to my collection. I finally did. I probably
- 1:01:07haven't even taken it out of the bloody plastic on there as well. I
- 1:01:10got I got the Terminator one or two at the Back to the Future there.
- 1:01:14You guys have already spoken about them, the Matrix as well as is
- 1:01:16there different again. You guys very good at listing five. Okay, I'll
- 1:01:22say the ones that I've seen once that I really fucking love. I don't
- 1:01:27know that they would be my favorites of all time, but again, just
- 1:01:30great first experiences and I'm almost scared to go back District nine. And I
- 1:01:35just fucking hated that. Yeah. I think maybe we spoke about that.
- 1:01:37Yeah, I don't know. I didn't. I think it might have been
- 1:01:40when I was in films a joke. It was like a mockumentary. I
- 1:01:47typically have a very very low tolerance for a mockumentary, like I can't watch
- 1:01:53The Office, I can't watch Modern Family anything like that. Can't do it.
- 1:01:59I think I've seen you know, maybe twice now, and I do
- 1:02:01remember enjoying that one that was for some reason, there was something about that
- 1:02:06that I kind of was like, yeah, okay, it's kind of like
- 1:02:08sound footage where it's like yeah, but then propaganda it in a certain way,
- 1:02:14and I like it was. I actually watched it again and I'm like,
- 1:02:16oh, Okay, this isn't as bad. Yeah, it's just I
- 1:02:20was expecting and I don't I don't know. I think the trailer really fucked
- 1:02:22it up for me. I can't remember the trailer, but it made it
- 1:02:27out to be an action movie. That's from what I remember, I probably
- 1:02:30did. Yeah, and it was nothing like the trailer. Yeah. Yeah,
- 1:02:36if you go on expecting action moving, yeah you got That's what I
- 1:02:39was. Just is it going to start? Yeah, I don't know what
- 1:02:43I would have expected then if I maybe I did expect that. I can't
- 1:02:45remember what the trailer was, but just maybe I didn't watch the trailer.
- 1:02:49I expected something, but just how like a different type of it's not an
- 1:02:52alien invasion film. It's set like twenty years after they were there, and
- 1:02:55it's like, hey, look they're not hurting us. They're just they're just
- 1:02:59existing, Like we know what they look like, but they basically stay up
- 1:03:01there. We don't know what's going on. It's affecting the world. And
- 1:03:05then obviously he gets infected in his sort of slow term, but then also
- 1:03:07trying to like fight for them because he understood and the CGI in that is
- 1:03:14fucking phenomenal. Again, I need to revisit it, but I remember at
- 1:03:16the time going, oh, this is one of the for me top three
- 1:03:20definitely top five uses of CGI or examples of great CGI of all fucking time.
- 1:03:25Like, and it's the budget on that film was not very big.
- 1:03:29But it was like they paid their actors four hundred bucks between them, and
- 1:03:31the ten million in the budget was just on creating the walking prawns. So
- 1:03:37I I really dig I remember that line though, fucked the fun. I
- 1:03:43didn't fear that's right. She's like, because he's he's turning into an alien,
- 1:03:45she assumes he's caught on STD fuck prawn e completely are the genre.
- 1:03:58Two thousand and four. Hopefully you've seen this, Brendan, because you love
- 1:04:00big Jim Carrey Eternal Sunshine on the Spot. Yeah, I knew that was
- 1:04:04going to fucking show up. That's on my honorable mention. Yeah, it's
- 1:04:09fucking awesome. It is. Oh, I don't you know what. It's
- 1:04:13so good because it's practical filmmaking out. It's absolute peak. Yeah, that's
- 1:04:16what it is. Barely any cdo on this and some weird completely practical you
- 1:04:25guys this film. That's where you get hard over it. Oh no,
- 1:04:28that's not why I love it. I think you make a good point,
- 1:04:30but that's I wouldn't even Yeah. When I think about that movie, I
- 1:04:33probably think about the reveal at the end. Yeah, and you then you're
- 1:04:39like, hole, I need to watch it. I've never rewatched it,
- 1:04:41but watch it again. And I'm a mutual friend of ours Brent Josh,
- 1:04:45and we're just his place on like a Saturday afternoon and maybe his parents had
- 1:04:48borrowed it from Video Easy and we just will pop it in before we take
- 1:04:53it back, and just sitting there is two like eighteen year old guys fresh
- 1:04:57out of graduating high school watch other watching this watch watching this movie about like
- 1:05:03this kind of toxic relationship but not really toxic, but just one that's destined
- 1:05:09to fail, or is it? And at the end, just like that,
- 1:05:13yeah, that was good. Do you want to what do you want
- 1:05:15to do? Like it was still daytime at that stage, like it was
- 1:05:18like it just wasn't the right setting. But I was just sitting there just
- 1:05:21like, holy fuck, that movie just destroyed me. And I've listened to
- 1:05:26a lot of people talking, a lot of people talk about this film since
- 1:05:29then. They go, this is a movie they watch when they're in a
- 1:05:31relationship, but it's also one they watch when they're in a breakup. And
- 1:05:34it's perfect. One movie is perfect for both occasions, when you're really in
- 1:05:39a relationships and when you're when you're really hurting. I just and maybe just
- 1:05:43because Kate wins. It's a fucking goddess's two storylines too. Yeah, yeah,
- 1:05:48you're right, the two guys. That's what confused me, because I
- 1:05:51I can honestly say, that's a movie I don't understand. I don't.
- 1:05:56I watched it the first one when I don't understand what I just watched,
- 1:06:00get to the end and go, I'm gonna try. And I tried watching
- 1:06:01it in a few weeks later, and I was like, I'm just bored,
- 1:06:04Like, I don't I don't connect with anybody. I don't. I
- 1:06:08don't get it. I don't get the premise. I flat out just don't
- 1:06:11understand. I mean, we haven't. We haven't prefaced anything with the spoiler
- 1:06:14alert at all this one, maybe because it's so niche he skip forward thirty
- 1:06:17seconds if you haven't seen it, and you want to say some of it,
- 1:06:19but I just want to actually say what I remember about the movie being
- 1:06:23about right. So you've got the two texts coming in. They're there to
- 1:06:26wipe? Is it her memory or his there to wipe? He's already done
- 1:06:30it. She's already done it. That's right, he's wiping the memory.
- 1:06:32Of their relationship. He's like, fuck it, well, I've got to
- 1:06:34do it too. I'm not sitting here with these painful memories of a relationship
- 1:06:38the Mark Ruffalo and Elijah Wood. Oh my god, yeah that's right.
- 1:06:42Yeah, I think he was Elijah, but I forgot about it. And
- 1:06:44then if you're tuning back in, we're still talking, still talking. And
- 1:06:47then but to delete the memories, they have to relive them in his mind
- 1:06:53basically or something. He has to remember core memories to be able to delete,
- 1:06:58like the full thing. He's trying. He's realized halfway through that it's
- 1:07:01a mistake and he doesn't want to forget her. So he's like, I'm
- 1:07:04going to hide your memories that you weren't in right, And then go back
- 1:07:11to his mom. He goes back to his childhood where he got his first
- 1:07:14bike. He went to he's getting bathed by his mum in the sink.
- 1:07:17He's a little boy under the before you go on. I think maybe that's
- 1:07:21where I disconnected, because I was like, well, if he doesn't want
- 1:07:25to do it, trying to hide him, then why is he doing it.
- 1:07:28It's not it's not mandator. Why is he doing it? I think
- 1:07:30I had that disconnect and I couldn't I couldn't understand that he kind of had
- 1:07:33a last minute change of Okay, I don't remember that at all, because
- 1:07:38I remember maybe the change of heart, but it was almost too late.
- 1:07:42But it was like while he was in it, right, So he's she
- 1:07:45keeps disappearing. He's like, fuck, no, this was a great memory.
- 1:07:47What am I doing? That's right? Yeah, he wants to She's
- 1:07:51deleted somewhere. He wants to delete it, and then he doesn't. But
- 1:07:56they're either we as the audience watching it, or he's having to remember,
- 1:08:00like this again, this is my memory, remember like core memories so that
- 1:08:04it deletes the whole He needs like ten core memories to delete the entire relationship.
- 1:08:10And then it gets deleted, and you see why it worked, why
- 1:08:13it didn't, and why it was great and why it sucked, and why
- 1:08:15they should remember each other and they should have stuck together, but also why
- 1:08:17they would want to forget one another. And then come the end of the
- 1:08:20movie, you realize they've done this before, They've deleted each other before,
- 1:08:25and they just keep falling in love with each other. They're destined to be
- 1:08:28with one another, but they're also destined to not stay with each other because
- 1:08:31they just can't make it work. But they are the best pit that's what
- 1:08:33I remember, and it just being so heartbreaking to find out, holy shit,
- 1:08:38they've actually been with each other beforehand, and they've completely deleted each other
- 1:08:41from each other's lives and like the butterfly effect, almost like they're going to
- 1:08:45re meet and just startle this all over again, except not one of them
- 1:08:47has his memory. Again. Everybody they know don't mention that we have to
- 1:08:54hide the photos again. So anyway, that's one. Yeah, No,
- 1:08:57I would definitely disconnect from that because there's this cool line I heard somewhere and
- 1:09:00it was like, well, it's almost like a Yoda liner. It's like,
- 1:09:02what are we but are some of our memories? Yeah? Yeah,
- 1:09:05And I really respond to that, and it's just like, yes, I
- 1:09:09guess I could never see myself deleting memories because it was like, well then
- 1:09:14you who knows what knock on effect that way of your yesterday? Right,
- 1:09:19like just connect with it. The kids were having a blowt with each other
- 1:09:21and then I got angry at my older boy because of what he was doing
- 1:09:25to my to my second boy, and angel, he would never do anything
- 1:09:28wrong. Sure he doesn't, and I'm getting up him about it, and
- 1:09:30he just he refuses to take a lot of things, refuses to take responsibility.
- 1:09:34It's always somebody else's fault. And then when it's not somebody else's fault,
- 1:09:38well, then what he's in trouble for actually never happened. And it's
- 1:09:41like he gets to the end of an argument that doesn't make sense and he
- 1:09:44has no backing, and then he goes, oh, well, I'll better
- 1:09:45go back and change the genesis of the argument in the first place. And
- 1:09:47then it's not that sort a woman does Jesus Christ Brendan, how do you
- 1:09:53still have a wife? Because because he doesn't hired these comments, he makes
- 1:09:59a listen to the podcast. He made her become a Patreon subscriber so that
- 1:10:02she could listen to these specials. How strong is her English? Second?
- 1:10:06Is that the problem you don't understand when I say that it actually means this.
- 1:10:12I call her toots. Yeah, she loves it. I did it
- 1:10:16a Sarah, almost as an insult. She loved it. I'm like,
- 1:10:18now I've got to do it. This is a little jokes. And and
- 1:10:24then he wouldn't he was arguing with me about something he's wanted to play,
- 1:10:27all to do with him playing cricket and out the front and second boy runs
- 1:10:31off. He's upset, and I'm like, well, that's happened because of
- 1:10:34you, and and you know you've got to take responsib blah blah blahh went
- 1:10:38on and on on, and then he starts yelling at me for doing something
- 1:10:41and I'm like, man, it wasn't he If you're going to do this,
- 1:10:43it's done. And I pick up the wickets and I go to walk
- 1:10:45inside and he screams out at me. He screams, hey, how dare
- 1:10:47you've gouse? You have just ruined my afternoon? And I'm like, mate,
- 1:10:53after I come back to sub mate, no one can ruin your afternoon.
- 1:10:55You had so much fun. We're playing with the neighbors, you're playing
- 1:10:57with your brothers. Up until that point, it was a fun day.
- 1:11:00That one thing, doesn't you know. I'm thinking about those Transformer fans like
- 1:11:04Michael Bay ruined my childhood. It's like you didn't go back in time and
- 1:11:08change the nineteen eighty eight film ruined your childhood. He just made a movie
- 1:11:13that you didn't like based on characters that you did love. Those movies still
- 1:11:15exists, go back and watch them again. So I'm saying, James,
- 1:11:18you had fun up until that point, but then it took me to that
- 1:11:20moment. Inside Out Great another great movie, a Disney Pixar but a different
- 1:11:26type of film, but a great film about memories and how they make us.
- 1:11:29And that memory, like, it's a happy memory, but then the
- 1:11:32character of sadness touches it and all of a sudden it becomes a sad memory.
- 1:11:35So for what, Like it was a happy memory about that girl playing
- 1:11:40with her friend that she used to live with and live near in another city,
- 1:11:42and she all would go back to that memory. Oh that's right,
- 1:11:45happiness was there, and then sadness touches it, and all of a sudden
- 1:11:48she thinks about that friend, but it's a sad thought now because she doesn't
- 1:11:51live there, and it's like shit, Yeah, like core memories, we
- 1:11:56don't remember everything that's ever happened to us, but they were just key.
- 1:11:59I'm riddled with it. Fucking memory that I had when I was of when
- 1:12:01I was nine, and it's the dumbest thing in the world. And laugh
- 1:12:04at me. I remembering in the news agent. My dad going to pay
- 1:12:09for whatever, and I'm like, remember, seeing, what's the thing you
- 1:12:11stick the pencil in the drawers? A protractor is that you stick the pencil
- 1:12:14and you like stick a pin in the PAPIs compass the compass and saying to
- 1:12:17him, Oh, and I need this because my friend like had one at
- 1:12:21school and was drawing wicked fucking circles with it, you know, Like,
- 1:12:26I'm like, I need that, and I saw it there and I made
- 1:12:28him buy it for me. Now it probably costs four dollars, like,
- 1:12:31and he was already in the middle of paying for something, and I'm like,
- 1:12:34oh, I need this for school and him like okay, Like he
- 1:12:41didn't necessarily want to buy me something. He didn't even know why I wanted
- 1:12:43it, and he already paid for the thing that he had and he's okay,
- 1:12:45he bought it for me because I asked for it. But I remember
- 1:12:46feeling really bad about lying to him. I didn't need it for school.
- 1:12:49I just wanted to do some wicked cool circle drawings. Yeah, sure,
- 1:12:56dad, get you what you wre that was. That was twenty eight years
- 1:12:59ago. That is stuck with me and I'm like, what is that?
- 1:13:00What is What did that tell me about then? Like, don't lie,
- 1:13:03don't I don't know what that means? What does that tell That's a core
- 1:13:06fucking memory. I might not remember anything either side of that day for months,
- 1:13:11but for some reason, I remember that. I remember that very very
- 1:13:13clearly. It's such a weird I don't know, but that's I love that
- 1:13:16movie, And ironically, I don't know if I want to rewatch it in
- 1:13:20case I don't like it, or I don't know whether I want to watch
- 1:13:24it with my wife because I don't want it to be a like we fought
- 1:13:28two days ago. It might not be far enough away to watch this movie
- 1:13:30or or something anyway. Another one I've watched one time. It's much more
- 1:13:36recent. Predestination. You know this. I'll talk to you about this if
- 1:13:40you ever seen Predestination Ethan Hawk. We saw it together, directed by two
- 1:13:44blokes from here, Brisley, the Spirit Brothers. Who did I done a
- 1:13:46few game. I think we've had this com Yeah, maybe you're you're a
- 1:13:53tiny Whima guy. You will fucking love this thing. It will break you.
- 1:13:56I'm not a huge Ethan Hawk person, but give it, give it
- 1:14:00a watch. It's not like John Cord Van Damn Time Coop, like big
- 1:14:05sexy showcase time travel sort of thing. But he is a guy who uses
- 1:14:09time travel for like crimes and stuff, right like there's a there's a bomber.
- 1:14:14There's someone that like travels around time and drops bombs off and he's finally
- 1:14:17going to crack this case or whatever. But it's what it's it's about him
- 1:14:21as a character and what And I almost can't say anything about the film without
- 1:14:25spoiling some ship, but it's fucking It's in the title. It's a predestination
- 1:14:29paradox, remember futures and voyager a leads to be, leads to see,
- 1:14:33leads to a Yeah, but the best you're doing that's one in the patrios,
- 1:14:41there's a Patreon. But yeah, like we we talked for weeks after
- 1:14:47that, how we just wanted to get out of big roller Butcher's paper and
- 1:14:49just map it out because our minds were just fucked. Have you seen you
- 1:14:56might like Umbrella Academy? Did you watch that? I've still never watched it.
- 1:15:00It was a hard watch getting past the first episode, yes, and
- 1:15:04then once I got into it, I was like, oh, this is
- 1:15:05actually fucking incredible, really really good. Yeah, really good. I'm struggling.
- 1:15:11The monkey was like, what the that was the hardest thing. Now
- 1:15:16the other one I've only seen once. Well, you don't want to say
- 1:15:18two thousand and six and it's yeah, it's time timely for now. Now
- 1:15:26this film, I will say what it's about and then anyone, either of
- 1:15:30you two know why I'm referencing it, you probably won't matter, but yeah,
- 1:15:35Children of Men Clive Owen. So it's set. I don't know what
- 1:15:39stage it was two thousand and six. I don't know when it was set
- 1:15:42in the future, but in the future of that film could be now,
- 1:15:44could be ten years ago for us, I don't know. But everyone everyone
- 1:15:47took the fire of Accent and no child, no child has been born for
- 1:15:51eighteen years. The youngest person in the world is eighteen years old and he's
- 1:15:56just died. And everyone's like, well, we're just we're just waiting for
- 1:15:58extinction, right, And seeing this, you should have told me who the
- 1:16:01real star of it was. Julianne Moore's great in its fantastic Is it the
- 1:16:09blind one too? You're thinking of all? Was she in a book of
- 1:16:12Eli Because I'm thinking of I've never seen a book of eli. I don't
- 1:16:15know what. Oh, no, I know it. Mark Ruffalo should have
- 1:16:18moved with Mark Ruffalo where she was blind or something. He was blind.
- 1:16:21He must have been blind. I feel like I can see a poster with
- 1:16:24her with like something I can't remember. Yeah, yeah there's one. We're
- 1:16:29not her eyes now, she had a bandage, but like the part of
- 1:16:31the poster is like it's like rubbed out over her eyes. The Forgotten,
- 1:16:35but that was more about aliens and stuff that was sick. That was kind
- 1:16:39of cool. Yeah, all of a sudden, you realize that's like I
- 1:16:41did this movie just saying genres halfway different things. Children men, they write,
- 1:16:45so no child's been born. Women across the world unable to concede.
- 1:16:49That is a fucking cool move. I don't like. Yeah, great concept.
- 1:16:54And then all of a sudden, I think, through Julian Moore,
- 1:16:57hey there's this woman that's pregnant. There's this young girl that's pregnant. We
- 1:17:00need to get her. Because it's it's not post apocalyptic like zombies or anything,
- 1:17:03but society is decaying because they know that in like seventy years, we're
- 1:17:08all dead, like humanity is dead because we're not procreating anymore. Then as
- 1:17:12this young girl, we've got to get her. This is not a safe
- 1:17:14place for her. People will somehow use it. They'll just kill her whatever
- 1:17:17why they would doesn't matter. We've got to get her from A to B
- 1:17:20and be happy. This is the end. Yeah, we've got to get
- 1:17:24the movie I was talking about also two thousand and eight surprisingly called blindness.
- 1:17:29Who would have thought. So they've got to get her somewhere safe. And
- 1:17:33if she gets safe and she can have this baby, maybe then you know,
- 1:17:36maybe she's not the only one out there, but maybe through her.
- 1:17:40Hey, who knows, We're going to restart society. Shot the one shot
- 1:17:45that was one of the first one shots that I've ever seen, and it
- 1:17:47goes for like eight minutes or something. It's fucking incredible. Alfonso Kuran,
- 1:17:53who did Harry Potter and Prisoner of Azkaban, so he was fresh off that
- 1:17:56it was like two years earlier, had us pronounce his last name. I
- 1:18:00just got him bang bang. It was two like great films from him.
- 1:18:03Now it's relatable to me because all this hype about the Last of Us,
- 1:18:06I've never played the Last of Us. I understand it's one of the greatest
- 1:18:10video games of all time. People blah blah blah. No, yes,
- 1:18:14shoot them up. Sure, I mean like that. But the show's coming
- 1:18:18out. I can't wait to watch this. And I watched this and I'm
- 1:18:23like, oh, so it's about this guy who's in this post apocalyptic world.
- 1:18:27He's a bit of a I couldn't give a fuck attitude. There's a
- 1:18:30young girl who is different than everybody else, and he's got a transport from
- 1:18:33one place that's dangerous through a ton of other places that are dangerous to somewhere
- 1:18:38safe where maybe she can save humanity. I'm like, oh, so Naughty
- 1:18:42Dog and Druckman did they just watch Children of Men and went what about that?
- 1:18:46But zombies video game. I'm not going to say they're plagiarizing stuff because
- 1:18:50there's much more to it, but for me, having remembered Children of Men
- 1:18:54for the last seventeen years, she pregnant, No, she's not, And
- 1:18:59then and then out comes out comes to the fat talking about the last year,
- 1:19:05the last McDonald's burger. Then the Last of Us comes out, and
- 1:19:11I'm like, oh, I've seen this story before. Now, okay,
- 1:19:14everything that comes out you've seen the story. There's only so many body story.
- 1:19:16It's becoming they're calling it a trope now because it's like if you look
- 1:19:18at the Mandalorian, yeah, all the it's the it's the lone wolf wolf
- 1:19:24Cub is what that is? What it's being called now, Judgment Day becoming
- 1:19:27that trope. Yeah, the lone Wolf wolf Cub trope. And again,
- 1:19:30if you do it, if you do it, if you do it,
- 1:19:30well, no one cares. It's only when you do it badly. People.
- 1:19:33No, we've seen that before, and that's why it's bad. It's
- 1:19:35like no, no, no. The other one, I really like the
- 1:19:39You Got of war Games because he I don't know why, it puts an
- 1:19:44extra kind of steaks on it because he's walking through the idea of the game
- 1:19:48is he's walking to the highest peak in all the realms and he has to
- 1:19:51take like an eight year old boy with him, and it's like, fuck,
- 1:20:00you know the kid gets better along the gym? Yeah, yeah,
- 1:20:01yeah, very Yeah, it's cool. I'm probably even just going to focus
- 1:20:08on my underappreciate I think they're underappreciated. Maybe you guys like them, I
- 1:20:11don't know, but other ones that these are ones that I've seen a hundred
- 1:20:14times. They're not part of the underrated ones. I don't want to mention
- 1:20:16Predator like it's sci fi, but I think it's more about an action film.
- 1:20:19But it's just like such an easy watch for me, like Chuck it
- 1:20:23on. It's just it's just it's just fun. It's great, it's iconic,
- 1:20:26you know the great turn on eighties March oh stuff. It's like,
- 1:20:30yeah, but that's why those guys lost, Like it's sort of it flips
- 1:20:33the script and what you think that movie is about. I lean more towards
- 1:20:38Alien than Predator. I'm more of it, like when yeah an Alien view
- 1:20:40Predator world where the like they've decided to combine them. I tend to lean
- 1:20:44more towards the Aliens. Now I'm going for the Predator. I like,
- 1:20:46I liked the standalone Aliens better than Predator, but I like the Predator versus
- 1:20:51the Alien. Yeah okay, right, yeah yeah. Ironically, now we
- 1:20:57know that I have terrible taste in things. My favorite Aliens film is Alien
- 1:21:00Resurrection with known a writer, which everyone hates but I love with them all
- 1:21:04really like, I think that's the that's the Batman and Robin of the Alien.
- 1:21:10I love it, like i'd forgotten is that the white one? Is
- 1:21:14that three? Remember there's an albino one a VP or something like that.
- 1:21:20Four is the hybrid. It's like it's like that's yeah. And even Ripley
- 1:21:25is like a clone of the rear. She'st like part alien DNA. And
- 1:21:29then it gets sucked out that little tiny hole in the in the window.
- 1:21:32It's like spaghetted out through its own Okay, I mean I didn't grow up
- 1:21:38watching the Aliens. I watched them all just together. Yeah. I think
- 1:21:43that that might have even been the first one that I watched, because that
- 1:21:45came out like ninety first one. Yeah, and so I watched it.
- 1:21:49I'm like cool, Like I want to go back and rewatch the other ones,
- 1:21:53and the other ones are better or whatever. But if you watch Alien
- 1:21:56Resurrection, you go, oh, that's just firefly. It's very simp uh.
- 1:22:00Minority Report two thousand and two, Spielberg, Tom Bruise, it's pretty
- 1:22:04cool basically, like now, yeah, if they had pre cog cognitive people,
- 1:22:12woul you know anything about it? Like time copy kind of stuff,
- 1:22:16stopping crimes before happen. I don't know if it's experimental drub or these like
- 1:22:21maybe we kind of but that's just more like heads up displayed its like using
- 1:22:26an iPad without touching it sort of thing. Really fucking cool ship that we're
- 1:22:29working towards. The thing that it is amazing is you can see that they
- 1:22:33got a lot of things, right, I mean, oh yeah, well
- 1:22:38I remember hearing the eye stuff. Yeah, that's one hundred percent. I
- 1:22:41love that ship that's coming in on. Well, it already they said,
- 1:22:44already works with like if you're going through tweets and stuff, it's like,
- 1:22:47you know, well, not so much looking at your eyes necessarily, but
- 1:22:50like if you stop on a tweet, it's like, oh could you like
- 1:22:54that? So whenever I'm reading and it's on that for you page, I'm
- 1:22:57constantly scrolling, so know what you're attracted basically a little bit of blue take
- 1:23:01over the camera. But yeah, like my dick out, I referenced that
- 1:23:09to Sarah all the time, like report like he walks through somewhere and all
- 1:23:14the billboards have cameras that read your eyes. They know your name and they
- 1:23:17go, hey, hey, Maddie, have you ever have you ever thought
- 1:23:19about buying this Samsung TV? Like it's not just like this is a great
- 1:23:23TV. It speaks to you and it scans everybody, and it only speaks
- 1:23:28to you and things that they know that you want, and like, shit,
- 1:23:30that's happening now, Like you know, I'm talking about this now.
- 1:23:31Tomorrow there'll be a great deal for Samsung on my Instagram page or or whatever.
- 1:23:34But it's yeah, like the place those surf life saving hawkers, it's
- 1:23:42just screens. Hey, I'd love to talk to you about this, like
- 1:23:46experimental maybe experimental drug fucked like parents. Basically, this woman gave birth to
- 1:23:53triplets, twins, and then there was a third twins. Yeah, I
- 1:23:58think she likes boys and another girl, but they're all born. They are
- 1:24:01triplets, but two of them were the whatever parte of twin that is.
- 1:24:05And because of the drug fuck nature of the mother when throughout her pregnancy,
- 1:24:12they're pre cognitive so they can like detect sense murder, like predict murder.
- 1:24:17And so it's only like they're in Washington, but basically they like they like
- 1:24:21have a dream and they go fucking all right, Mitch Lewis is going to
- 1:24:25get murdered on July twelfth at eight thirteen am by this person and then fucking
- 1:24:30Tom Cruise shows up there at eight twelve and go, oh fucking there's that
- 1:24:34guy. He's about to walking, he's got he's got a gun, and
- 1:24:38I'm going to run fast. Yeah he runs playest Yeah, but like it's
- 1:24:43about the pre cognitive and then Tom Cruise plays a cop who's been part of
- 1:24:47this program for like fifteen years or something, and then one says the pre
- 1:24:51cogs have a dream that he's going to murder someone. But it's like they
- 1:24:57are one hundred percent correct, and went, whether you never commit the murder,
- 1:25:00they're having a murder in like six years. Once they detect that you're
- 1:25:03they just go and arrest you and they stick you in a fucking tube and
- 1:25:06that you put in the cry a sleep. That's it. Yeah, the
- 1:25:09hundreds of people have been convicted without ever having done anything. Yeah, that's
- 1:25:12a cupical premise, and that's a common sort of sci fi premises. It's
- 1:25:15like okay, well yeah, like Kim like demolition Man, Yeah, like
- 1:25:20stop will eave that, and a few others are just like stopping something before
- 1:25:24the crime happens. It's like, well, if they never got a chance
- 1:25:28to actually that crime, do you have the right to it. It's really
- 1:25:31Yeah, there is an argument in like behind the scenes of that film.
- 1:25:35It's like, how can you how can you do this? Yeah? Fuck,
- 1:25:40that's a good movie too. Yeah. I had that on my honorable
- 1:25:44mention. Yeah. Nice. I'm surprised, and you may get I'm surprised
- 1:25:46neither of you actually mentioned. What's that mean. I'm not a huge fan
- 1:25:49of Bruce Willis Looper. Yeah, I liked it. It wasn't bad.
- 1:25:54I'd prefer if I'm going to talk of Bruce Willis, I prefer Twelve Monkeys.
- 1:25:59Oh, I would say, I prefer that's the one with the fifth
- 1:26:03element. No, the Surrogate. Oh yeah, yeah, I didn't mind.
- 1:26:12They'll have that soon too. Yeah. Wait, I'm going to funk
- 1:26:15like a monkey. This is This is not like the like quality films are
- 1:26:21some of the ones we've been talking. I just like the pure fucking insanity
- 1:26:25of it. The Island, Michael bay with you and McGregor and scull at
- 1:26:29your Hands and the Clones and it is just it is bay Hem at his
- 1:26:32absolute finest. Nelix is in that too. Yeah, it's a shame.
- 1:26:40I don't know if this counts grandhog Day. Yeah, kind of. I
- 1:26:45guess why not so much darker than I thought watch? I watched it with
- 1:26:49the kids the other day. Kid suicidal, Yeah, I forgot about it.
- 1:26:55All I remember is replaying when he punches the guy in the Yeah you
- 1:27:00think I'm watching The Simpsons with the kids the first time, that one where
- 1:27:02he's like carrying harrim Is carrying the boulder. He's lost his jobs carrying the
- 1:27:05boulder to go and chuck himself off a bridge, and like the kids don't
- 1:27:09understand what he's doing. Yeah, But then like there's two old people sitting
- 1:27:12on their porch and they're just rocking back and forth in their chairs and they
- 1:27:15go, oh, look, dear this, that Simpson man going to kill
- 1:27:18himself. I'm like, my kids is like, what, Like, I
- 1:27:25don't know that you understand. They don't understand what they're talking about. It
- 1:27:28doesn't matter. Move on, you hate stop us. There's a there's a
- 1:27:30great line in Uh one More when You're done that. There's a great light
- 1:27:35in Scrubs where there's like there's the sad Sack character. There's the lawyer and
- 1:27:39they open up his briefcase and they go, wait, all that's in here
- 1:27:43is a smiley faced button and a revolver. He goes, yeah, ones
- 1:27:47in case I get sad, the other ones in case I get really sad,
- 1:27:56and everyone just because Okay. The other one from the Simpsons, a
- 1:27:59crust of the clown like, hey, kid, who do you love Chirsty?
- 1:28:03How much you love Kirsty? So much? It's like, whatever happens
- 1:28:06if I get taken off the air will kill ourselves. It's like a fucking
- 1:28:11horde of kids. And I'm like, oh my god. The nineties were
- 1:28:14wild, and this is why we're so tough right as right, and we
- 1:28:18were the pussy We're tough skin right. The under unappreciate one just quickly,
- 1:28:23I'll go Tom Cruise, Tom Cruise, underappreciated. No, they are?
- 1:28:28I really dig oblivion. Yeah, that's fuck. I have that on my
- 1:28:30list. I dig Oblivion with Morgan. Yeah. I really liked that movie.
- 1:28:36Surprised shit out of Yeah, And it was, but it was in
- 1:28:39that era pre coming back for one of the Mission Pop where no one gave
- 1:28:43a shit about Tom Cruise. I was still like, he's the weird guy,
- 1:28:45and I'm like, no, watch the film. The other one is
- 1:28:46Edge of Tomorrow Tomorrow that's fucking awesome. I almost had that instead of interstella.
- 1:28:51Now about the fact, I think Oblivion's twenty thirteen, it was like
- 1:28:54late twenty thirteen. Tomorrow was the middle of twenty four. Tomorrow was a
- 1:28:59bigger hit. I feel not as not that big though it was bigger,
- 1:29:02but not that by that she did so well, Like that was she was
- 1:29:11brilliant. Yeah, A Quiet Place is actually a sci Yeah, I fucking
- 1:29:15love that. I love that movie. Second one is pretty great, pretty
- 1:29:19sweet for me. It was like that first experience. Yeah, oh that
- 1:29:24was great because I don't I think I liked the first one because they didn't
- 1:29:27explain it. Yeah, I love movies that don't do that. But if
- 1:29:29you're going to make a sequel, you might as well explain it. Yeah,
- 1:29:30well they're making it technically a spinoff. I guess it's called A Quiet
- 1:29:34Place Day one. So like you got that day one pro in number two
- 1:29:42where they showed, hey, this is what happened in this town when it
- 1:29:45happened, and then a flash forward to the post movie number one. Is
- 1:29:48he writing it? I think he did. Actually, I think he came
- 1:29:51up with the story. I don't know, he's not directing. He's not
- 1:29:55starring in it, but he's the producer. No, it's it's a completely
- 1:29:59different cast. But I think they still are making a third one that'll probably
- 1:30:01have and evily. Well, we can only hope it's an inclusive world,
- 1:30:09post apocalyptic I assume so. But yeah, Edge of Tomorrow and Oblivion.
- 1:30:14Get around him, Tom Cruise before everyone's like, oh I love him because
- 1:30:16Tom Maverick. Yeah, but I've always loved to know you. Fucking Okay,
- 1:30:19if we get a chance, we should Actually, for Patrio, we
- 1:30:21should we should play the Quiet Place game. What's that? Well, it's
- 1:30:26like hide and Seek, but it's like one person is just thirty minutes of
- 1:30:29dead air. No, no, no, it's a video, a video
- 1:30:31I've seen them on tiktoks. That's people playing the Quiet Place game where it's
- 1:30:34like one person is blindfolded and then there's just like ten other people around them.
- 1:30:40The one person who's blindfolded has like a dart gun or whatever, and
- 1:30:43it's like they're hunting the other people in that but with a blindfold on.
- 1:30:46That's Marco Polo. Yeah, but but the other people you can it's not
- 1:30:51in water Brendon. No, but you don't make a sound like the person
- 1:30:56like the monster doesn't give out a sound, and then you go Polo.
- 1:31:00It's the monster is hunting you and you have to hide and if you make
- 1:31:04a sound, you get shot by the gun. Yeah, I send the
- 1:31:08videos. It looks fun. When I was growing up, I used to
- 1:31:11play Lincoln and I used to play Hide and Seek with our sister. But
- 1:31:14she's deaf and she'd be trying to find us and we'd be yelling at her
- 1:31:16and she couldn't find us. Oh my god, you're terrible at this game.
- 1:31:24So famously a while ago, I told you a famously, I told
- 1:31:31you a deaf joke that you'd never heard before about and it worked perfectly for
- 1:31:35Germany because it was like a lip reading lesbian joke. Right. I had
- 1:31:39one the other day that I want to know if you I mean it doesn't
- 1:31:43quite work because the lesbian in cinemas. This one doesn't quite work because she
- 1:31:49doesn't know sign. She doesn't sign it not very much. Yeah, well
- 1:31:53I heard there, and it's like when when a deaf woman masturbates, do
- 1:31:58she just it with one handsome chicken she can sign moaning with the other hand.
- 1:32:03There was a there was a signer for the Rihanna. Oh yes,
- 1:32:09she was going to the super Bowl. Yeah, she was, Dan,
- 1:32:14why are they doing this? I was watching going Wow, she's like not
- 1:32:18doing anything. Yeah. There was like like we're here watching a four hour
- 1:32:25game for this thirteen minute concert. We need to sign what she's singing,
- 1:32:30but we're not going to tell you what the commentator is saying about the fucking
- 1:32:31football match you're watching. Yeah, you know, it's kind of a it's
- 1:32:34it's a weird and it's a half time and I can do that. How
- 1:32:44do you do? Ella? Yeah, umbrella, but you do half of
- 1:32:45it? Like it's like, why are they what are they doing? I
- 1:32:48gues there was someone the girl names Ela. Doesn't really matter, Okay,
- 1:32:51rabbit up this Why should have had five lists? My big one and it's
- 1:32:57it's my go to, like it's my phone, even what you're doing and
- 1:32:59it please just take twenty movies. I know, but I've listened to half
- 1:33:01of them. Well ones, you already had them, Like, let's talk
- 1:33:03about this more. Jurassic Park. It's like my go to favorite movie of
- 1:33:09all time. I would have guessed that this in the group chat when we're
- 1:33:11discussing it was like, I've never considered that as a science fiction and you
- 1:33:15wrote that, I'm like, it's not legitimately fictional science. Yeah, it
- 1:33:20doesn't get more sci fi than fictional science. And that's literally what it is.
- 1:33:25But like that was seven. When that was seven, I was seven
- 1:33:29when that came out. I still remember that first experience and how amazing that
- 1:33:31was. I was like, that's still the best of the entire franchise holds
- 1:33:35up better than any of them, is better than some of the cgo we
- 1:33:39see today. Yeah. Yeah, it hurts so much when I saw Dominion
- 1:33:45last year and I'm like, fuck, this is where this finishes. Like
- 1:33:47think about where this franchise start. I only watched that. You have to
- 1:33:49talk about that another time. To watch any of the World's first one's fine.
- 1:33:55It's kind of like the It's the Force Awakens of the Jurassic Park films.
- 1:33:58It's like, hey, we're gonna it's kind of like an amalgamation of
- 1:34:00all the other three is hard for the last two. I really enjoyed Jurassic
- 1:34:09Park three with the ted Actyls. Remember that. Yeah, I still like
- 1:34:12that. On the talking for Lost Raptor in the dream. Yeah, we
- 1:34:15Alan, that was weird. Alan love the first one, Second one I
- 1:34:17really dig third one was a dip, but I still really enjoyed it.
- 1:34:20And then Dressing worlds like, oh like Force wakens, We're back in this
- 1:34:23world. The parks up and running. Holy shit, this is what it
- 1:34:26was always going to look like. The second or the third one where the
- 1:34:28girl of the gymnastics things. Then second Yeah, I like that, And
- 1:34:31then the fifth one was like, I don't know. This isn't a what
- 1:34:35do you This isn't a Durssic Park film? The sixth one is like,
- 1:34:39what the fuck are you? What are you doing? I have a couple
- 1:34:42of action movies with diners in it. For five they start cloning people and
- 1:34:45suddenly there's like a little girl clone. Okay, yeah, she should have
- 1:34:49been Lex. She should have been Lex. That would have made so much
- 1:34:51more sense for the whole franchise if that little clone had been a clone of
- 1:34:55Lex. No, the girl, the girl from the first one. Time
- 1:35:01Traveler's Wife. I know you guys don't like that, but I really like
- 1:35:05which one. Sorry, Time Travelers Wife. That's a fucking great movie.
- 1:35:10Yeah, I love it. Yeah, and I think I've never seen it,
- 1:35:15but in the in the in the deep impact versus armageddon of it all,
- 1:35:19I would probably go to the lake House over the Time Traveler's Wife,
- 1:35:23having not seen The Time Traveler's Life. No, I think you'd be wrong.
- 1:35:26Yeah, I like the lake House, but I like it. I
- 1:35:30like it probably because I actually choose Deeping back to over Abageddon. So I
- 1:35:34watched. I watched most of the done recorded a couple of weeks on TV
- 1:35:39for the first time in a long time. And this is fucking really sad.
- 1:35:43But this is cool. I'm again, It's just like the fun version,
- 1:35:45Like you know, it's the Murka, I'm riding nukes on an asteroid
- 1:35:50like that happens. Yeah, that Time travel Is Wife. I don't know.
- 1:36:00It's a kind of it's a romantic movie, but it's also torturous and
- 1:36:05kind of like when we're talking about the Young Orlan and Carter the other week,
- 1:36:09going oh, this is weird and even like and I was arguing,
- 1:36:12but it shouldn't, but it's not. It's weird because the writers are making
- 1:36:15other people make it weird. Whereas Time Traveler's Wife, he's problem with Time
- 1:36:19Traveler. He just does it spontaneously. He can't control it and he'll pop.
- 1:36:23But his one connection is the woman that he's in love with, and
- 1:36:27wherever he is, wherever he goes, he always goes to find it,
- 1:36:29and so he FETs like she No, don't say, I can't say,
- 1:36:36don't even say what it is. I think it's good. If you don't
- 1:36:40just watch it, go to go watch, just watch it. Speaking don't
- 1:36:43do that because I want to talk about it, but I don't want to
- 1:36:44ruin it. Watch it. I want to give a diss on revenge.
- 1:36:46Speaking of Adam's people and sci fi films, I want to give a dish
- 1:36:50revenge to a rival. Oh god, I actually like it, like Rival
- 1:36:55Space Banana Nah. And again the reveal in that movie about the the nonline,
- 1:37:00Yeah, I'm like, I feel like, oh my god, they
- 1:37:03have emotions. Yeah, No, I don't think that's sort of I think
- 1:37:09it was the time, the way they perceived time. They also communicate via
- 1:37:14line, they don't. They don't communicate via language. They communicate via emotion.
- 1:37:18Sure, people have emotions. I need to rewatch it. Yeah,
- 1:37:23I actually enjoyed it. I don't like Andy Adams, but I liked that
- 1:37:27movie. I love that, but that was a bit like it wasn't that.
- 1:37:30It wasn't because of her that I really liked it. I'm just I
- 1:37:32need to like, is it it's even the guy did June and yeah,
- 1:37:40I wanted to make the recent Blade for Blade for I just remember we're going
- 1:37:45when's the movie going to start? Yeah? Oh yeah, it's a slow
- 1:37:50one. Yeah, It's like, yeah, it's it's a slow movie.
- 1:37:54Then I have people say it's not a Sciphi film. But I've had people
- 1:37:56say the Color Purple. They're like, there's no plot to that movie.
- 1:37:59And I'm like, if I can kidding, you've never seen it? Which
- 1:38:00is that the Goldberg? Yeah that's great. The other day that's the Oprah
- 1:38:04one. Yeah, Oprah whoopi Goldberg phenomenal film. I've had friends be like
- 1:38:10the plot hole in that film is there's no plot? And I'm like,
- 1:38:14yeah, it's an incredible film. Tell me I'm wrong, because I think
- 1:38:16I think you've seen it. Well, I think actually we were talking about
- 1:38:18White Lotus. I watched both seasons of that over the Christmas holidays. I've
- 1:38:23seen season two. You only watch two? Yeah, because the loved it.
- 1:38:27Yeah, I watched season two. See. Yeah, they are intology.
- 1:38:30It's essentially anthology. There's one shared character. Yeah, but they are
- 1:38:35black mirror thing. Yeah. Kind So the White Lotus briefly and then we're
- 1:38:40going to get here, which just like, let's not do it one am
- 1:38:42and it's three minutes to one. My wife, for the first time ever,
- 1:38:45has texted me and said, why don't you just stay at work because

- 1:39:01tomorrow. I'm going out to give tickets and there's a costume box out there.
- 1:39:05I can't. I gotta go briefly. Yeah. So White Lotus is
- 1:39:10the name of a chain of hotels. So season one is about one in
- 1:39:15Hawaii and season two is about one in Sly. Yeah, but it's like,
- 1:39:19hey, here's one week. There's a bunch of people staying at this
- 1:39:23hotel and the weird shit that goes on while they're here. Season two is
- 1:39:26phenomenal. I started watching season one. I didn't finish the first episode right,
- 1:39:30and no, I pushed pushed through it because I was like, I
- 1:39:31think I like this, but I don't know what I think Season one's better.
- 1:39:34I think I got more. I not resonated, but I liked the
- 1:39:39characters earlier and got along with them better in season one, quicker than I
- 1:39:42did in season two. But I did it back to back, basically,
- 1:39:45like finished season one one night, season two the next day. But that
- 1:39:47for me, as as far as what we're just talking about, that show
- 1:39:50has no plot. It's just about random characters. Like it's like four or
- 1:39:55five different storylines happening that might even be an understatement. Might be six or
- 1:40:00seven different groups of characters, whether it's one character or a family of four,
- 1:40:04and the staff that work there. They've all got their own stories going
- 1:40:08on, and very rarely do they interact. Yeah, so it's not one
- 1:40:12might affect another, but not really. It's like it could be done as
- 1:40:15a film if you if you boil it down, it could be a two
- 1:40:17and a half hour But even that, I'm like, it's it's not about
- 1:40:20anything. There's no plot, Like there's plot lines for the stories the characters
- 1:40:27do you know, might have an arc, but it's not like they're not
- 1:40:30all there to serve a common story. Well, it's that, but it's
- 1:40:33done it. I'm fascinating because there's fucking weird characters and I just enjoy being
- 1:40:38in this really weird place. It's an awkward watch. It's a really awkward
- 1:40:42watch watching the inner workings of these characters and it's got no plots for me.
- 1:40:45Season two does it falls back on that, on that sort of trope
- 1:40:48where it's like, oh, the opening scene, oh, there's a body
- 1:40:53in the water, cut to one week earlier, and then you need all
- 1:40:57these characters and it's just that who done it? Red Herring style thing of
- 1:41:00who's going to be the body they find in the water? Yeah, it's
- 1:41:04funny because hell but even though they repeat that, I by the end of
- 1:41:09season two, I was I wasn't sitting there going who's it going to be?
- 1:41:12I've forgotten about that? Yeah, same, And all of a sudden
- 1:41:14you're like, oh, that's that couple going to be together? And did
- 1:41:16that other couple fun? And did those kids did they what? Yes?
- 1:41:18I wanted to give an honorable mention to x Markner. Oh yes, yes,
- 1:41:23yes, yes, that's it. That's the one I've seen once.
- 1:41:26Yeah. Love. Not sure that I truly understand everything that he was saying,
- 1:41:30but everything that I understood I fucking loved. And also AI, yeah
- 1:41:38that's really you said. Color purple. That's yeah, I know, big,
- 1:41:45but you're thinking, but it's oh, which one's a I then the
- 1:41:48one with the kid from Six Dead People and it isn't. He also in
- 1:41:56No, I don't think the girl, the little girl is all right.
- 1:42:00It's something come up a lot as and it's kind of slow, but it's
- 1:42:03like I didn't see where that was going. That was on the Broken all
- 1:42:08the Broken Robots. Yeah, I know that much. That was long.
- 1:42:12Color Purple. That's a Spielberg film too. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 1:42:15I listened to an interview Spielberg. If you ask, he's my favorite director.
- 1:42:17He's such an easy go to guy because he's like the most prolific director
- 1:42:20of all in the sense of like he's made all these different genres. Yeah,
- 1:42:24they're big hits all over the world, but he can make a Shimbler's
- 1:42:26listen of Color Purple. But he can make a Jurassic Park or or whatever.
- 1:42:32I'm sitting there listening to this interview, and I have not seen so
- 1:42:36many of your films. Like I've colored seen Jurassic Parks. I've seen your
- 1:42:41Indiana Jones Is Along the Way and stuff. But you know, I've seen
- 1:42:44a Shimbler's List, I've seen some other really impactful ones, but I haven't
- 1:42:46seen I haven't seen Color Purple, haven't seen Munich, I haven't seen.
- 1:42:49I'm amazed that Brennan likes Color Purple. I thought that'd just you just be
- 1:42:53like, oh my god, what else is boring? No? Actually interesting,
- 1:43:00but get beaten, that's what it is. No. I like dramas
- 1:43:02a lot. Yeah, like dramas a lot. That's why I like Time
- 1:43:06Traveler's Wife Just Got Ship like that. It's a TV series, The Fly
- 1:43:14I just watched last year for the first time as fucking awesome. I think
- 1:43:17I only watched the first time like two years ago as well, for one
- 1:43:21of those in the house festivals cult classic. Yeah, that to me,
- 1:43:27man, that's fucking isn't it. Yeah, over halfway through when he's like
- 1:43:30in the Shower of the Simpsons ruined it for me. But still didn't matter.
- 1:43:33It's fucking great. He gets out of the bathroom's just in the bathroom.
- 1:43:35He's shirtless, and he's looking like maybe his nails are falling off something,
- 1:43:39and he's like, I'm like, I start that. It's the most
- 1:43:41scared I've ever been for a character. And I'm like, he's fucked.
- 1:43:44He's fucked, Like, yeah, he's there's no way he can come back
- 1:43:46to this. He's fucked. What the are you gonna do? Like,
- 1:43:48I was genuinely worried about this guy. I've never been super intense. Yeah,
- 1:43:53and considering how old it is, it holds up. Yeah, it's
- 1:43:57really good. Yea, And now I know why loves him so much.
- 1:44:00Jeff Goblin Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, Well a lot got suggestions there,
- 1:44:05guys, some some recommendation troopers saying that I wonder what I remember A
- 1:44:14few times I enjoyed tiny boobs fair enough? Yeah, fair enough? Oh,

- 1:44:23I can't do this to you in a Patreon you can. I'm the rules.
- 1:44:28Yeah. I remember reading an article about that, because when I was
- 1:44:30at A ninety seven ninety eight and an article about ten years ago, go,
- 1:44:35hey, look what he was saying about, you know, sort of
- 1:44:39Americana and propaganda and all that sort of stuff and military blah blah blah.
- 1:44:43In Vhovid, he did a RoboCop total recall, like, you know what
- 1:44:45he was saying. That film just wasn't this big shoot him up alien thing.
- 1:44:48Like he was saying some shit disguised in this big shoot him up sci
- 1:44:53fi film. Yeah, and they were saying, you know, back you
- 1:44:57know, in the early twenty tens, like watch it now, and I'm
- 1:45:00like, now, that's twenty twenty three. Yeah, that's probably twenty five.
- 1:45:03I should look it up. It's twenty five, twenty six years old
- 1:45:05at the end. Yeah, I'm like that. I'd love to watch that
- 1:45:10movie for a year. What does that movie say about the political I can't
- 1:45:14imagine. The only reason I wanted to watch them was because he came back
- 1:45:17in like what number three or four? Caspa Van Dian the League guy,
- 1:45:20don't I don't think I got that far. I think I stopped at three.
- 1:45:24Yeah, he came back and I'm like, oh, now I think
- 1:45:26I want to watch shitty number two and if it's hitting number three, just
- 1:45:30to get to the one where he comes back just to see that it's shipped
- 1:45:31too. It doesn't really matter. I want to give a mention to Tank
- 1:45:35Girl. Just a cult classic. I've never even heard of it. Demonic
- 1:45:41Kangaroo Men, Laurie Petty. Yeah, we can't walk away without saying mad
- 1:45:47Max number two. I was literally seconds away. I've only I've seen one
- 1:45:55like the old doing film school, like the old Falcon that he's driving and
- 1:45:59like no when they go wild. Yeah, it didn't get me one,
- 1:46:02but I've never seen two or three. But is not bad. Yeah,
- 1:46:11but I fucking loved Fury Roads so High he Love fur Love two. That
- 1:46:15is just the most batshit crazy movie I've ever seen, Like yeah, yeah,
- 1:46:19and I was disappointed they didn't have Mel Gibson for that, But then
- 1:46:23I also got over it because how good it was. Yeah, and it
- 1:46:27got hyped and I'm like, oh god, this is gonna saying he is
- 1:46:30the Fury. Yeah, if they haven't finished filming it, they're about two.
