  Jon: You and me both.
• 0:28
  There's one I can tell you about movies.
• 0:31
  I can find movies for you.
• 0:32
  I cannot fix anything on a computer.
• 0:35
  Kearns: The techie side gets a little tricky, but we made it everybody.
• 0:39
  And this is Xenomania, the first episode that we are doing
• 0:42
  in the new year, 2026, baby.
• 0:45
  Officially season two.

  Happy New Year's Maniacs.
• 0:50
  Ryan: New Year.
• 0:51
  This is gonna be a great season.
• 0:52
  we got a lot coming up, especially with this Goldie of an oldie,
• 0:56
  I think we can call it an
• 0:57
  Jon: Goldie of an Oldie, a Goldie.
• 0:59
  Ryan: oh, so.
• 1:02
  Kearns: He's the goldies.
• 1:03
  Besides maybe Dolly Parton, if you want to go that route.
• 1:05
  Ryan: Kurt Russell referenced so early on.
• 1:08
  He's, he'll be, he'll be making an appearance later this year.
• 1:10
  I'm excited for that.
• 1:11
  Now we're talking about the Sixth Sense, ladies and gentlemen.
• 1:15
  The first M Knight Shamoon production.
• 1:20
  Yeah.
• 1:20
  Jon: enough,
• 1:21
  Ryan: First
• 1:21
  Jon: close enough.
• 1:22
  Ryan: And he hits it out of the ballpark.
• 1:24
  I followed this group called Film Enquirer on Instagram.
• 1:27
  Nice little shout out there.
• 1:29
  And, they asked people what their first film was to watch for 2026,
• 1:33
  and I said, the sixth Sense.
• 1:35
  And they actually commented and they were like, know, there's a twist in it.
• 1:38
  And I said, yeah, you know, and it's great for first time viewers, which
• 1:42
  we all aren't first time viewers.
• 1:44
  We of course saw this back in 1999.
• 1:46
  but it's good for nostalgic reasons.
• 1:49
  It's a good movie, in my opinion.
• 1:51
  It's still holds up, though you can tell he's dead.
• 1:55
  Spoiler.
• 1:58
  Jon: Right off the bat, I mean, listen, you had 26 plus
• 2:01
  years to not have this spoiled,
• 2:03
  I mean, if somehow you've gotten this far without 6 cents being spoiled, I mean,
• 2:09
  Kearns: Now
• 2:10
  Ryan: There
• 2:10
  Jon: congratulations.
• 2:11
  Ryan: are some people who don't know, know, about this film or have
• 2:16
  just heard of it and are curious.
• 2:17
  So it's interesting to see that dynamic.
• 2:20
  Especially, I mean, again, like I said, we were all a part of the
• 2:24
  time when it first premiered 1999.
• 2:27
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 2:28
  Ryan: like just crazy.
• 2:30
  It was a crazy time for this.
• 2:33
  Jon: Yeah.
• 2:33
  Kearns: got a, of spoiling it, he's got a clip circulating.
• 2:37
  He is a standup comedian.
• 2:39
  Really dry humor.
• 2:40
  And he goes into, and as he's starting it up, he is like, and if you haven't
• 2:43
  seen it yet, it's been 26 years.
• 2:45
  Like you can, it's, it's your fault.
• 2:49
  He
• 2:49
  Jon: Yep.
• 2:50
  Kearns: but he, the whole bit is about how it's more believable that
• 2:53
  his wife didn't talk to him for like a year it was that he was dead.
• 2:57
  That's why men didn't notice the twist at all.
• 3:00
  It's pretty funny.
• 3:01
  Jon: But
• 3:02
  Kearns: it greatly.
• 3:02
  Ryan: I can agree with that.
• 3:04
  Jon: the thing with that is he really makes no effort to talk to her either.
• 3:10
  And he may you, you watch him and he like, he re Yeah.
• 3:15
  Yeah.
• 3:16
  Absolutely.
• 3:17
  if you get that intuition that the wife is mad, you kind of shut your
• 3:21
  mouth or you do what I tend to do and put your foot right, right.
• 3:25
  Deeply in your mouth and make everything way worse.
• 3:30
  Kearns: Yeah, that's one of my method too.
• 3:32
  But I've seen some pretty interesting, um, non-functioning marriages
• 3:35
  where it's just like icy silence
• 3:38
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 3:39
  Kearns: long periods of time.
• 3:41
  You're like, Ooh, waspy.
• 3:43
  Jon: Yep.
• 3:46
  Ryan: But it's the little tells.
• 3:47
  You can, see like especially rewatching it this weekend when she's like in
• 3:51
  bed and he checks on her and she pulls the cover a little more tightly.
• 3:56
  Or like, she's like warming her hands and you know, each time.
• 4:02
  The door.
• 4:03
  It's just interesting,
• 4:04
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 4:05
  Or, she's got another man over when she should know that he's in the house.
• 4:12
  Ryan: Yeah, As a first watch that's like, holy shit.
• 4:18
  Like what is this chick doing right now?
• 4:20
  Like, she's so unhappy.
• 4:22
  And then as you're like, after watching, you're like, oh man,
• 4:25
  I feel bad for Bruce Willis.
• 4:27
  He doesn't even
• 4:27
  Kearns: Yeah.
• 4:29
  Jon: See, I,
• 4:30
  Kearns: know.
• 4:31
  Jon: I ne I, I never had that going though.
• 4:34
  I never had that, watching it even the first time that's where things
• 4:38
  started to sort of go off in my brain that, uh, something's not as it seems,
• 4:45
  is they never showed, I mean, the, the only part of their relationship
• 4:50
  they showed was them happy and then him getting shot by a new kid.
• 4:56
  Ryan: Yeah.
• 4:58
  Yeah, it's pretty quick.
• 5:01
  Quick
• 5:02
  Kearns: lead up in like startup before things get supernatural and
• 5:06
  stuff, you sort of forget about by design because you're like, okay,
• 5:10
  he's a psychotherapist or whatever.
• 5:12
  A kid shrink he's well renowned and he is rich and his life is good.
• 5:17
  Oh, things have changed.
• 5:19
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 5:19
  Kearns: like immediately segues over to what's his face, what's the kid's name?
• 5:23
  Ryan: Haley, Joel Osman,
• 5:25
  Kearns: Hailey Joel Osmond, who was, that was a name that was so popular back then.
• 5:29
  He just popped up in, um, happy Gilmore too, to sum ACC claim.
• 5:34
  And, uh,
• 5:35
  Ryan: It's his
• 5:36
  Jon: He was just doing something else that I saw too, really recently.
• 5:41
  Kearns: he's making money again.
• 5:42
  But he looks different.
• 5:44
  He's not
• 5:44
  Jon: Oh, yeah.
• 5:45
  Kearns: kid anymore.
• 5:46
  Jon: he's a scruffy 30 something year old guy now.
• 5:50
  Kearns: he's a bey beer drinking man.
• 5:53
  And he probably still sees dead people.
• 5:55
  But yeah, the movie kinda like rolls right into that.
• 5:58
  And you get into your mite Shalan shenanigans Mite Shama Lanigan's where
• 6:04
  he's, know, and I, I'm only, when I watched Six Sense I didn't mind because
• 6:10
  I hadn't seen the same tricks 47 times.
• 6:14
  after the happening and Devil and Lady in
• 6:17
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 6:18
  Kearns: and the freaking village, that one pissed me off the most.
• 6:21
  'cause that movie had every right to be good.
• 6:24
  It really did.
• 6:25
  Ryan: until
• 6:25
  Kearns: And it was not.
• 6:27
  Ryan: The big
• 6:27
  Kearns: Yeah.
• 6:27
  Ryan: in the middle.
• 6:28
  Oh,
• 6:28
  Kearns: Uh,
• 6:28
  Ryan: road, there's cars.
• 6:30
  Kearns: I was scared of the killer Yellow.
• 6:35
  Jon: Yeah, I mean, he uses colors.
• 6:38
  I mean, in sixth sense it's red,
• 6:40
  Kearns: Mm-hmm.
• 6:41
  Ryan: Yeah.
• 6:42
  Red
• 6:42
  Jon: but, you know, he, I remember this movie coming out and there being a, oh,
• 6:47
  next, Hitchcock next, this one next.
• 6:50
  And I mean, he's been fine.
• 6:52
  Kearns: He's still riding that high.
• 6:54
  He's
• 6:54
  Jon: He's
• 6:54
  Kearns: that
• 6:54
  Jon: fine.
• 6:55
  Kearns: Even
• 6:55
  Jon: He's,
• 6:56
  Kearns: disappointed in the like by, you know, you let it go long
• 6:59
  enough, just like his career and it
• 7:02
  Jon: yep.
• 7:02
  Kearns: to get disappointing.
• 7:04
  Ryan: I wanna know who compared him to Hitchcock.
• 7:05
  'cause that,
• 7:06
  Jon: Oh, it was,
• 7:08
  Ryan: That's a
• 7:08
  Jon: that was a,
• 7:09
  Ryan: comparison.
• 7:10
  Jon: was a big thing after Sixth Sense, like.
• 7:13
  I mean, he was like, he was gonna be the next big, huge deal, and like
• 7:18
  maybe for 10 years he kind of was.
• 7:20
  And then it was, oh, this is really a one trick pony.
• 7:23
  He's just, every, there's a twist.
• 7:25
  So every movie, you just wait for the twist?
• 7:28
  Kearns: they don't pay off.
• 7:29
  They don't like it happening.
• 7:31
  What was the twist there?
• 7:32
  Ryan: trees.
• 7:34
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 7:35
  Kearns: That happenings twist.
• 7:36
  Was it?
• 7:37
  They decided to stop killing everyone.
• 7:39
  Ryan: Did anyone see trap?
• 7:41
  Like what was
• 7:42
  Kearns: Yeah,
• 7:42
  Ryan: Was that was him?
• 7:43
  He wrote and directed that.
• 7:45
  I was looking it up.
• 7:46
  It was so there were a
• 7:46
  Kearns: it wasn't so
• 7:48
  Jon: Sort of.
• 7:49
  Kearns: He, um, she like brings him into that.
• 7:52
  His daughter is the pop star in that movie, the director daughter.
• 7:56
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 7:58
  Kearns: they bring, Josh Hartnett her house.
• 8:02
  Like she switched Aussies at, they kind of switched directions.
• 8:06
  Is that the twist you're talking about, John?
• 8:07
  Where they like bring her into it as a main character?
• 8:11
  Jon: I mean, I haven't watched it, but based on what I know
• 8:13
  of it, it's kind of the twist.
• 8:15
  That trap is a setup.
• 8:18
  You know, they're setting Josh Hartnett up the whole time.
• 8:23
  Kearns: Yeah.
• 8:23
  Ryan: Okay.
• 8:24
  Kearns: The, the whole movie's about him knowing about it and trying to
• 8:26
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 8:27
  Yeah.
• 8:28
  Kearns: they switch settings to, residents and they like
• 8:31
  get him, but he gets away again
• 8:33
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 8:34
  Kearns: well, he'll come back and he does.
• 8:36
  And that's like the end
• 8:37
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 8:38
  Kearns: because
• 8:39
  Jon: I,
• 8:39
  Kearns: came back to kill his wife,
• 8:42
  Jon: I don't even know.
• 8:43
  Kearns: to kill.
• 8:44
  Jon: I don't know either.
• 8:45
  But I mean,
• 8:46
  Kearns: movie.
• 8:47
  Jon: listen,
• 8:47
  Ryan: twist
• 8:48
  Jon: the real whole reason, for Trap, I think is to expose his daughter singing
• 8:53
  more than it is to, you know, make a, movie that people are gonna go wild for.
• 8:59
  Kearns: Yeah.
• 9:00
  Like that's not a real good like.
• 9:02
  twist in, the village was that it was in modern day.
• 9:05
  Jon: Yeah.
• 9:06
  Kearns: the twisty twist.
• 9:08
  twist in signs was the, the water cups were relevant
• 9:13
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 9:14
  Kearns: were like susceptible and like swing away was to swing away at the alien.
• 9:18
  That was kind of
• 9:18
  Jon: Yeah, yeah.
• 9:19
  Kearns: right?
• 9:21
  I don't even know if there's a twist in Devil.
• 9:22
  Devil was such a bad movie.
• 9:24
  Ryan: Um, don't go on
• 9:25
  Jon: I don't even,
• 9:26
  Ryan: Um,
• 9:27
  Jon: don't even remember if I watched Devil.
• 9:29
  Maybe I did.
• 9:30
  It's vaguely familiar.
• 9:32
  Kearns: It's hard to get past the part where he's like,
• 9:35
  wait, something's going on.
• 9:36
  Drop your sandwich and the guy drops his sandwich and it drops
• 9:39
  on the jelly side or whatever.
• 9:40
  And he is like, the devil's here when he's here, bad things happen.
• 9:44
  And I was like, if it landed on the bread side, the devil wouldn't have been around.
• 9:48
  Okay.
• 9:48
  Ryan: You can,
• 9:49
  Kearns: Okay.
• 9:49
  Ryan: can save it.
• 9:50
  You can dust the dirt off the jelly.
• 9:52
  You can't, that gets embedded into it.
• 9:55
  Jon: Yeah.
• 9:56
  Kearns: acting style in Tarantino movies and stuff like that.
• 9:59
  There's also a very distinctive acting style for a lot of people
• 10:02
  in M Night movies, and that style tends to be kind of like bland,
• 10:08
  Jon: Yeah.
• 10:09
  Kearns: just sort of like weird deliveries.
• 10:11
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 10:12
  Ryan: Yeah.
• 10:13
  I,
• 10:13
  Kearns: Even
• 10:13
  Jon: Yeah,
• 10:14
  Kearns: Bruce Willis was kind of muted.
• 10:16
  Ryan: yeah,
• 10:17
  Kearns: Uh, he was great and unbreakable, though.
• 10:19
  If we're gonna do like M night, we better bring up unbreakable.
• 10:21
  That was
• 10:22
  Jon: yeah,
• 10:22
  Unbreakable and Split are probably his two best movies after six tenths,
• 10:28
  Kearns: Yeah,
• 10:29
  Ryan: What about
• 10:29
  Kearns: and they franchised them.
• 10:31
  Jon: the visits, it's okay.
• 10:33
  Ryan: I love that twist.
• 10:34
  Jon: but I mean, it's sort of the, idea I was getting at earlier is
• 10:38
  you go into an M Night movie now waiting for the Twist instead of, you
• 10:43
  know, focusing on good storytelling.
• 10:45
  He's, you know, disguising everything because, you know, he's gonna
• 10:50
  twist something near the end.
• 10:52
  And I, I don't know, I, the twist is fine, but I'd rather he made a good movie
• 10:58
  and if there's a twist, there's a twist.
• 11:00
  Kearns: Yeah,
• 11:00
  Ryan: Yeah.
• 11:01
  Kearns: I'm with you on that.
• 11:02
  Ryan: Like I feel like it's forced and I agree with that.
• 11:04
  Like he hits it well with the sixth sense, assign, he does well, unbreakable.
• 11:10
  I like.
• 11:12
  I feel like that was pretty straightforward.
• 11:14
  I mean, if there is twists, it kind of flows with it.
• 11:16
  But that's what you want.
• 11:17
  You want twists to flow.
• 11:19
  And a lot of his movies, they're, the twists have been
• 11:22
  forced down people's throat.
• 11:23
  Like old the Twist was like right there constantly in your face and it
• 11:29
  took over the story and the story is decent, but the twist is like, oh, okay,
• 11:36
  Jon: Yeah, and I don't think you get that as much from Sixth Sense as you
• 11:39
  do from a lot of his other stuff.
• 11:41
  And maybe it's because it was the first one and you know, you're
• 11:44
  going in blind not knowing that there's gonna be an m night twist.
• 11:48
  Kearns: Yeah.
• 11:48
  Jon: Yeah.
• 11:49
  Ryan: it was new.
• 11:50
  like saying crazy again.
• 11:51
  It's crazy 'cause the phenomenon for this movie was everyone was talking
• 11:55
  about it, premiering in August 6th, 1999.
• 11:58
  Like
• 11:59
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 12:00
  Ryan: skipping school and watching it on the cheap box, on good old pay-per-view.
• 12:05
  Just to see it, to see what the hype was about.
• 12:09
  Jon: Yeah,
• 12:09
  Ryan: the shit outta him.
• 12:10
  Jon: I think, I think I went opening weekend.
• 12:13
  Ryan: Okay.
• 12:14
  Kearns: I didn't see it in the theater.
• 12:15
  I think I saw it similarly on a cheat box, oddly enough.
• 12:21
  But
• 12:22
  Ryan: Old
• 12:22
  Kearns: yeah, it was, I mean, we're kind of going into it without the enthusiasm.
• 12:27
  We would've when we had done a first watch back then,
• 12:30
  Jon: Oh, absolutely.
• 12:31
  Ryan: Yeah.
• 12:32
  Kearns: of the state of his career and all the things he's done again
• 12:36
  and again, and again and again.
• 12:37
  But it really was a good movie.
• 12:39
  It is a good movie.
• 12:40
  It was a good movie and a great first watch.
• 12:42
  If you've never seen an M Night movie and you watch the 6 cents, you're
• 12:45
  gonna enjoy it because everybody did.
• 12:48
  It made like $672 million Box office, something like that.
• 12:53
  Ryan: you are right on the money.
• 12:55
  Kearns: bang Baby.
• 12:56
  I looked it up before we started and I was, I'm glad I didn't forget the number.
• 13:00
  Jon: and the, the sixth,
• 13:02
  Ryan: that's, you know.
• 13:02
  Jon: the sixth sense twist isn't as forced.
• 13:07
  Right.
• 13:08
  You see, to make the sixth sense effective, the way it's effective the
• 13:13
  first time you watch it, the twist works.
• 13:17
  The, you know, those moments when, Hailey Joel lets him in on the concept that he
• 13:24
  sees dead people, they don't know they're dead, and they usually want help to Bruce
• 13:30
  Willis going home and be, and you know, that realization that, oh, I am dead.
• 13:38
  Kearns: Yeah.
• 13:40
  And the reveal of that is really good.
• 13:42
  Jon: Yep.
• 13:43
  Yeah.
• 13:44
  Kearns: At least I feel the reveal of that is really good.
• 13:46
  the breath at that perfect time.
• 13:47
  When he is like, his wife is napping or next to
• 13:50
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 13:52
  Kearns: or sleeping, it must be nighttime.
• 13:54
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 13:54
  Kearns: kind of is reciting, you know, some of them don't even know they're dead.
• 13:58
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 13:59
  Kearns: of thing.
• 13:59
  It's good.
• 14:01
  It's just good.
• 14:02
  I.
• 14:02
  Jon: His ring falls onto the ground.
• 14:05
  Ryan: in it.
• 14:07
  Jon: Yeah.
• 14:09
  Yeah.
• 14:09
  And that, that's what I take from it now.
• 14:11
  That's what I take from it now.
• 14:14
  Mm-hmm.
• 14:15
  I take the, emotion of those last 20 or so minutes, it's from Helly Joel in the
• 14:23
  car with mom saying it, explaining to her and making her believe that he sees
• 14:31
  dead people to then Bruce Willis going home and realizing, damn, I'm dead.
• 14:38
  Kearns: Yeah.
• 14:39
  Ryan: Yeah.
• 14:40
  And him noticing like he can't open up the door and it's
• 14:45
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 14:45
  Ryan: I feel like, again, we're talking about, like, you're talking about bland.
• 14:50
  like there's a lot of emotion in that scene, but then there's a
• 14:53
  lot of emotion in the scene when Joel, Oman, his character Cole,
• 14:57
  reveals that he can see dead people.
• 15:00
  Um, both, both of those scenes are very high up there, and it's
• 15:04
  interesting because of course it's the finale, which should have
• 15:08
  a big feeling for every viewer.
• 15:11
  But the biggest view, which is the reveal, is the midpoint.
• 15:15
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 15:15
  Ryan: it can hit and sometimes it can't.
• 15:17
  And it, it hits in this, which is
• 15:19
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 15:20
  And I think the thing he does really, really well with this, that's not
• 15:24
  a twist, is up until the moment he reveals he sees dead people, you don't.
• 15:32
  Kearns: Right.
• 15:33
  Ryan: Uh, which is cool.
• 15:35
  Jon: And then from then on, you see what he sees.
• 15:38
  Kearns: Yeah, that is cool.
• 15:40
  Jon: you know, you're sort of in, I mean, I think you kind of know what's
• 15:44
  going on with, the kid, but you don't have it until that moment and then
• 15:49
  you see them all and you see the kind of life that he has to be living.
• 15:56
  Ryan: Well, it starts off like,
• 15:58
  Kearns: Oh, it's gonna be horrible.
• 15:59
  Ryan: uh, I mean, everyone thinks he's got mood swings, he's got schizophrenia.
• 16:03
  Like they all think he's dealing with these problems.
• 16:06
  Everyone thinks he's a And it's like, no, he's seeing things that he
• 16:13
  can't handle, he doesn't understand.
• 16:15
  Jon: Yeah.
• 16:15
  Yeah.
• 16:16
  Ryan: and you know, I mean, I consider it, I mean, we're covering
• 16:20
  it, so it's considered horror, but it's like feel good horror.
• 16:24
  Like if I had to make a Hallmark channel dedicated to horror
• 16:27
  films, I'd show the six sense, you
• 16:31
  Jon: Oh, for sure.
• 16:31
  You wouldn't have to cut anything either.
• 16:33
  Like it's a, maybe some language here and there, but for the most
• 16:37
  part you don't have to cut very much.
• 16:41
  Kearns: It's not very graphic at all.
• 16:44
  The, jump scary scenes are, um, like pretty, pretty mild.
• 16:50
  Ryan: the
• 16:50
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 16:51
  Kearns: The girl vomiting was the worst part for me.
• 16:53
  Yeah.
• 16:53
  Jon: Yeah.
• 16:54
  Ryan: That
• 16:54
  Jon: Ah,
• 16:54
  Ryan: gets me.
• 16:55
  Still gets me.
• 16:57
  Kearns: But I mean, it's the sixth sense.
• 16:58
  It's like tough to do an episode on the sixth Sense 'cause it's like, Hey,
• 17:01
  we're doing an episode on you guys now,
• 17:03
  Jon: mm-hmm.
• 17:04
  Ryan: Well, I, I'll
• 17:05
  Kearns: but
• 17:05
  Ryan: guys one.
• 17:06
  Uh, when you were watching it, were you guys thinking about
• 17:09
  Scary Movie three and the
• 17:11
  Jon: No,
• 17:12
  Ryan: What?
• 17:12
  No.
• 17:13
  Jon: I didn't even remember a scary movie three until you just brought it up.
• 17:16
  Ryan: No.
• 17:16
  When the kid was talking to each person, like in that scene, and he's like,
• 17:20
  he's gonna be a, you know, you're gonna have a boy, he's gonna be an asshole.
• 17:24
  And it's just.
• 17:25
  Kearns: Yeah.
• 17:26
  Jon: I, I'm amazed that you can remember things from the scary
• 17:30
  movie series by a specific number.
• 17:33
  Kearns: Yeah.
• 17:33
  That is pretty impressive.
• 17:35
  I don't know which, which one is the one with Charlie Sheen and, uh,
• 17:39
  Ryan: Three.
• 17:39
  Kearns: that's three.
• 17:40
  Jon: Is it three?
• 17:41
  Kearns: the science one, right?
• 17:43
  Ryan: do you
• 17:43
  Kearns: Yeah.
• 17:44
  Ryan: my wife's dead, so hold on.
• 17:46
  Her body split in half.
• 17:48
  So wait,
• 17:48
  Kearns: Which, yeah, which.
• 17:49
  Ryan: and this is,
• 17:50
  Kearns: Yeah.
• 17:52
  he ask which half too?
• 17:53
  Like which half he can access it.
• 17:56
  Jon: But, um,
• 17:58
  Ryan: that's
• 17:59
  Jon: you, what you.
• 17:59
  Ryan: with the
• 18:00
  Kearns: crap.
• 18:00
  Ryan: impersonator too.
• 18:01
  Kearns: scene in that movie though is the, the dogs are acting
• 18:04
  weird and then they like come by on a ball and stuff like that.
• 18:09
  That's the best scene in that whole movie.
• 18:13
  Like they're doing circus tricks.
• 18:15
  Oh, I
• 18:16
  Jon: It
• 18:16
  Kearns: in college.
• 18:17
  That was the
• 18:17
  Jon: is
• 18:18
  Kearns: we did when we saw Mystic River and then we bought the ticket for Scary
• 18:21
  Movie three and we snuck into Mystic River and I walked out of Mystic River
• 18:26
  halfway through and paid for the ticket.
• 18:28
  I was like, I'm not paying for that pile of crap movie and not paying
• 18:31
  for this masterpiece of a film.
• 18:34
  And they were like, wait, what are you doing?
• 18:36
  The movie's already started.
• 18:37
  I'm like, yeah, I just need to buy the ticket.
• 18:39
  Ryan: I feel guilty.
• 18:41
  Just gimme
• 18:42
  Kearns: wouldn't even get into it.
• 18:43
  I was like, if you guys can't put it together, I'm not
• 18:44
  gonna put it together for you.
• 18:45
  I'm just, I'm paying you for one ticket for Mystic River now.
• 18:50
  Ryan: you know, cookie Dough Bites.
• 18:51
  I'm going back to scary movie three guys.
• 18:54
  Kearns: Yeah.
• 18:54
  Ryan: I,
• 18:55
  Kearns: That
• 18:55
  Jon: so
• 18:55
  Kearns: the same theater that I watched somebody get slapped in the
• 18:57
  face for How bad Broken Lizards, uh, club Dread was they stood
• 19:02
  Jon: I love club dread.
• 19:03
  Ryan: Pineapple
• 19:04
  Kearns: friends stood up and one of them was like, yeah man,
• 19:06
  it was supposed to be good.
• 19:07
  These are the guys who did Super Troopers.
• 19:08
  His friend just slapped him in the face, so
• 19:13
  Ryan: I, I agree with John,
• 19:15
  Jon: Broken Lizard has
• 19:16
  Ryan: great.
• 19:17

  Ryan: I do wanna see it.
• 19:42
  I am excited for it.
• 19:43

• 19:48
  Ryan: Oh, get pulled over.
• 19:49
  Littering in,
• 19:51
  Kearns: Littering in
• 19:52
  Ryan: littering

  Kearns: Tastes like
• 19:53
  Jon: because that that whole opening is local.
• 19:56
  Ryan: Oh,
• 19:57
  Kearns: We got so excited for these other movies we're talking about
• 20:00
  and like we were just monotone through the whole six sense portion.
• 20:03
  Do you have a game for us tonight, John?
• 20:05
  Jon: I absolutely have a game.
• 20:06
  I have a keeper cut for you guys.
• 20:08
  Ryan: Ooh.
• 20:09
  Kearns: Oh, keeper Cut.
• 20:09
  Ryan: So I, it's just, I hope you didn't go with my suggestion,
• 20:12
  which I was like, I, I made
• 20:14
  Jon: I didn't.
• 20:14
  It's it's still four and four.
• 20:17
  Ryan: I was like, we should get rid of five and
• 20:20
  Kearns: Oh man.
• 20:22
  first one.
• 20:23
  Jon: Start off with a banger.
• 20:24
  Ryan: all Bruce Willis films.
• 20:26
  Jon: Oh, yeah.
• 20:27
  Yeah.
• 20:27
  There's no, there's no hiding this.
• 20:30
  Ryan: Oh.
• 20:30
  Oh, wait, so
• 20:31
  Jon: It's all Bruce.
• 20:32
  Kearns: Well, it's
• 20:33
  Jon: Yep.
• 20:33
  Kearns: Willis, I have to cut 12 Monkeys 'cause I know Die Hard and
• 20:37
  Fifth Element are coming up and.
• 20:40
  Ryan: He might
• 20:40
  Kearns: Look who's talking.
• 20:41
  You're gonna put, look who's talking in here?
• 20:43
  Because you're a clever bastard.
• 20:44
  You're not.
• 20:44
  You're not.
• 20:45
  I'm hip to you, John.
• 20:46
  Ryan: he, he figured I, he might've figured us out, so he
• 20:49
  might be twisting it around.
• 20:51
  So, uh,
• 20:52
  Kearns: That's exactly what he threatened to do.
• 20:53
  But I'm still cutting 12 monkeys.
• 20:55
  Ryan: to monkey is so good.
• 20:57
  Real quick.
• 20:57
  Kearns: Didn't they get in trouble for how much damage they did to like
• 21:00
  a capitol building in Philadelphia the
• 21:03
  Jon: I think they might have.
• 21:04
  Kearns: Yeah, something like that happened.
• 21:06
  Ryan: Um, it's based off a French film actually.
• 21:09
  And the French
• 21:09
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 21:11
  Ryan: Uh, you've seen it, John.
• 21:12
  Jon: I haven't seen it.
• 21:13
  I know it's based on a French film, but the name is escaping me right now.
• 21:17
  Is it Lae?
• 21:18
  Ryan: It's
• 21:19
  Jon: Okay.
• 21:20
  Ryan: all still frames and it's like just pictures with a narration that sets
• 21:25
  Jon: Huh?
• 21:26
  Ryan: up for 75 minutes.
• 21:28
  It's
• 21:29
  Jon: I
• 21:29
  Ryan: a brilliant art film, if I should say.
• 21:32
  Um, they do it better, but I am gonna cut it too 'cause I agree
• 21:36
  there might be, some other choices.
• 21:38
  Like if
• 21:38
  Kearns: Keeping.
• 21:39
  Look who's talking.
• 21:40
  Ryan: oh yeah, hell yeah.
• 21:41
  I am.
• 21:41
  Yes.
• 21:43
  Jon: All right, we'll, see if this was a good move.
• 21:46
  Next movie.
• 21:48
  Ryan: Keep,
• 21:49
  Kearns: Keep
• 21:54
  Ryan: there's like, yeah,
• 21:56
  Kearns: instantly.
• 21:57
  Ryan: am.
• 21:57
  I can
• 21:58
  Kearns: Uma Thurman, you look a lot like your daughter.
• 22:01
  Jon: Yeah,
• 22:02
  Ryan: Which
• 22:02
  Jon: sure does.
• 22:03
  Ryan: the stranger things.
• 22:05
  Kearns: and Robin,
• 22:05
  Ryan: Seriously,
• 22:06
  Kearns: Hated it.
• 22:07
  Jon: I have, I have heard,
• 22:09
  Ryan: Really?
• 22:10
  Jon: very mixed opinions.
• 22:12
  Kearns: Absolutely not, not a single inkling of a risk was taken.
• 22:16
  Season four was a masterpiece of art and storytelling.
• 22:19
  Season five was a giant, like, it was like stepping on a milk
• 22:23
  dud in the dark in like August.
• 22:26
  So it squishes between your toes like, you know what just happened?
• 22:30
  And you know the, like, what's gonna happen next?
• 22:33
  That's basically what Stranger Things season five finale was like.
• 22:38
  They tried a little twisty, arty thing in there with like, is she dead?
• 22:41
  Is she not dead?
• 22:43
  If you haven't seen it yet, sorry.
• 22:44
  And don't watch it.
• 22:45
  but it's so dumb.
• 22:47
  I don't know.
• 22:47
  Ryan: know.
• 22:48
  You
• 22:48
  Kearns: was just too safe.
• 22:49
  They played it too safe.
• 22:51
  Ryan: Well, yeah.
• 22:52
  I. I think they felt like they had no choice because the kids grew.
• 22:57
  And feel though they kind of went with the ending they wanted to do for season one.
• 23:04
  You know, is she
• 23:05
  Kearns: Yeah,
• 23:06
  Ryan: Is she not gone?
• 23:07
  It's very ambiguous.
• 23:09
  Um, but the d and d,
• 23:12
  Kearns: they spent
• 23:12
  Ryan: the
• 23:12
  Kearns: more time, 'cause you're gonna do the d and d part.
• 23:15
  Ryan: yes.
• 23:16
  Kearns: more time on will's coming out scene than they did
• 23:19
  on the fight with the final boss.
• 23:22
  I'm just gonna put that out.
• 23:24
  Ryan: Only
• 23:24
  Kearns: Only a minute difference.
• 23:26
  It was seven minutes total, like ish, just below seven minutes
• 23:30
  total for each, which is wild.
• 23:32
  Ryan: they cleared up.
• 23:33
  Why The mind flare, what do you call it?
• 23:36
  There was no demic organs is because reremember in season three, they
• 23:40
  Kearns: I didn't even have a gripe with that dude.
• 23:42
  Ryan: hold on.
• 23:42
  What?
• 23:42
  John, John, how far are we into this?
• 23:45
  Kearns: He's not gonna watch it.
• 23:46
  Ryan: I
• 23:47
  Jon: Me?
• 23:47
  No, I'm probably not gonna watch.
• 23:49
  I haven't finished season four.
• 23:53
  Once the episodes got to
• 23:54
  Kearns: Season
• 23:55
  Jon: once, once they got to movie length episodes, they started to lose me.
• 24:01
  Ryan: It's worth it.
• 24:03
  Kearns: in the
• 24:03
  Jon: B.
• 24:03
  Kearns: episode too, because it's such like a, a mi or no, it's such
• 24:07
  like a c plus kind of episode.
• 24:09
  It's two hours long of that too.
• 24:12
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 24:12
  Kearns: have to like, watch them wrap up everybody's little plots and character
• 24:16
  growth arcs and you're just like, shut up.
• 24:18
  Nobody cares.
• 24:19
  I know what you're doing.
• 24:20
  This is gonna suck.
• 24:21
  And then two hours later you're like, God dammit, I knew it was gonna suck.
• 24:26
  Ryan: I, I did enjoy it.
• 24:27
  I'm happy.
• 24:28
  I'm happy it's done.
• 24:29
  They're coming out
• 24:29
  Kearns: You know what it's like, it's like getting a free shot at Halle Berry.
• 24:33
  She's super into you, but you like, you myth it and you get nervous and you like
• 24:36
  just touch side boob and you have to live with that for the rest of your life.
• 24:40
  Ryan: Berry from the
• 24:41
  Kearns: that's what, that's what season five of Stranger
• 24:43
  Things final episode felt like.
• 24:46
  You could have had full swordfish, Halle Berry,
• 24:49
  Ryan: Damn it.
• 24:49
  Kearns: Ball, Halle Bear, any Halle Berry.
• 24:51
  You could have Halle Berry today.
• 24:52
  What are you, what are you saying?
• 24:55
  Men would fight wars over that lady.
• 24:57
  To this day,
• 24:59
  Jon: Absolutely.
• 25:00
  Kearns: boobed.
• 25:00
  You could have had, the greatest night of your life.
• 25:02
  Jon: Absolutely.
• 25:03
  Kearns: you get a shot.
• 25:04
  Nope.
• 25:04
  That's what the last episode's like.
• 25:07
  Ryan: I
• 25:08
  Jon: All right.
• 25:08
  Ready for movie three?
• 25:09

  Kearns: Tucker should be on this poster.
• 25:22
  It's a crime
• 25:22
  Ryan: he?
• 25:23
  No, he's not.
• 25:23
  That is a crime.
• 25:25
  It's, you know, they offered the role to Prince.
• 25:28
  I'm happy he turned it down and
• 25:30
  Kearns: multi pass.
• 25:32
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 25:33
  Kearns: got the alien opera lady, but they don't have Chris Tucker.
• 25:35

  Jon: He's like off of Bruce's shoulder.
• 25:44
  Ryan: Yep.
• 25:45
  a great movie.
• 25:48
  Jon: Right?
• 25:48
  So we're keeping fifth element.
• 25:49
  How do we feel about moving number four?
• 25:54
  Ryan: I am gonna cut
• 25:54
  Kearns: See now I feel like he's trapping us.
• 25:56
  Ryan: cutting it.
• 25:58
  Cut.

  Kearns: wanna close your eyes, Ryan.
• 26:02
  Ryan: Animal
• 26:03
  Kearns: asleep.
• 26:04
  Ryan: in my soup.
• 26:05
  Jon: That's, that is the one scene I cannot stand.
• 26:10
  The rest of the movie's fine.
• 26:11
  I actually kind of like Armageddon.
• 26:12
  If it was like a half hour shorter, I'd probably like it a lot more.
• 26:16
  Kearns: I do like Armageddon, but I like it for like a blockbuster
• 26:19
  and I like it for what it is.
• 26:21
  And what
• 26:21
  Jon: Yeah,
• 26:22
  Kearns: is one of the greatest movies Bruce Willis ever made.
• 26:25
  Cut.
• 26:28
  Jon: I think I may have you guys,
• 26:30
  Kearns: If this was a Steve Buscemi list, I would keep it
• 26:34
  Ryan: be
• 26:34
  Jon: I don't know.
• 26:35
  Kearns: in this movie.
• 26:36
  Jon: I don't know.
• 26:37
  'cause I ca, I mean without even looking at his filmography, I have three keeps

  Gotta keep it.
• 26:45
  Jon: and that's four.

  Ryan: Yeah.
• 26:52
  Jon: air Airheads.
• 26:55
  Kearns: that would be way harder to do Steve Buscemi than it would be like you
• 26:58
  could throw the island in there and stuff.
• 27:00
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 27:01
  Yep.
• 27:01
  Kearns: All
• 27:02
  Jon: Alright,
• 27:02
  Ryan: Steve Chemi episode.
• 27:02
  Jon: let's see how we feel about Movie five.
• 27:05
  Ryan: Ah, hold on.
• 27:07
  I'm
• 27:07
  Kearns: he chose, he specifically chose Die hard two.
• 27:10
  Ryan: I'm two for two.
• 27:12
  Kearns: Die harder.
• 27:13
  Ryan: is five.
• 27:15
  Jon: So a Christmas movie.
• 27:16
  Ryan: It is a Christmas film.
• 27:18
  Actually.
• 27:18
  Diehard two is actually really good, he's already put Die.
• 27:22
  He put diehard last year for us for our last list.
• 27:27
  Crap.
• 27:28
  Kearns: This is a cool one.
• 27:29
  'cause if you watch the TV cut.
• 27:31
  When he lights the gasoline on fire to blow up the plane, he,
• 27:35
  I forget what he says, but his voice is so utterly ridiculous.
• 27:39
  It's one of the best ones.
• 27:41
  Not as good as the Big Lebowski.
• 27:43
  you find a stranger in the Alps, that one, that's one of
• 27:46
  the best TV edits of all time.
• 27:49
  Let's, he's like Mr. Connor, Um, I really don't want to do it, but I'm gonna have
• 27:57
  to cut it 'cause I don't trust you.
• 27:59
  Ryan: Hmm.
• 28:01
  Kearns: Yeah.
• 28:01
  And it's also not die hard.
• 28:03
  Like if it was die hard, I'd probably have to keep it.
• 28:05
  But it's die hard too, which is arguably just as good.
• 28:08
  But
• 28:08
  Ryan: he might have
• 28:09
  Kearns: I
• 28:09
  Ryan: with a vengeance on here.
• 28:10
  You know what, I'm gonna cut
• 28:11
  Kearns: would keep die hard with a vengeance over die hard too.
• 28:14
  Yeah.
• 28:14
  Ryan: Zeus.
• 28:16
  My name's not, not.
• 28:17
  It's Zeus.
• 28:18
  Kearns: I played Die Hard with a vengeance video game, like way too much.
• 28:22
  Ryan: trilogy.
• 28:23
  Kearns: Central Park.
• 28:24
  Yeah.
• 28:25
  Running everybody over.
• 28:27
  Jon: So, Ryan, you're cutting this.
• 28:28
  Ryan: the games were like huge.
• 28:30
  Three.
• 28:31
  Yeah.
• 28:32
  Three for two.
• 28:33
  Kearns: We both we're both.
• 28:34
  We've done the exact same thing so far.
• 28:36
  Ryan: Yes.
• 28:36
  We have,
• 28:38
  Jon: All right.
• 28:39
  We'll see if that pays off for you guys.
• 28:41
  Ryan: but let's say,
• 28:44
  Jon: Planet error
• 28:46
  Kearns: Hmm
• 28:46
  Ryan: um,
• 28:49
  Kearns: Hmm.
• 28:50
  How many movies are left after this one?
• 28:53
  Jon: after this too?
• 28:55
  Kearns: And I would have to keep them both.
• 28:57
  Jon: Yep.
• 28:59
  Kearns: This is the trap, Ryan.
• 29:00
  This is the trap.
• 29:01
  He's laid it out nicely.
• 29:04
  I'm gonna get a better look at that poster for some reason.
• 29:07
  Seeing how that's looking with the gun on it.
• 29:10
  Ryan: good film too,
• 29:11
  Kearns: It is good.
• 29:12
  Jon: I love Planet Share.
• 29:14
  Ryan: any other,
• 29:16
  Kearns: I'm gonna keep it.
• 29:18
  Ryan: you know what, I'm gonna cut it.
• 29:20
  I'm gonna take the mystery box.
• 29:21
  Uh, Alex.
• 29:23
  Kearns: Keep it.
• 29:24
  I still get one to keep, one more, to keep.
• 29:26
  One more to cut.
• 29:27
  And the next one's gonna be super juicy so that you, you have to agonize
• 29:30
  over it because you don't know what the last one is, which won't be a
• 29:33
  Jon: Maybe.
• 29:34
  Kearns: you,
• 29:35
  Jon: Maybe.
• 29:35
  I mean, Ryan's cutting.
• 29:37
  Kearns: you have to keep them both.
• 29:38
  Jon: Ryan's keeping the last two, and we'll see how he feels about that
• 29:41
  because here's movie number seven.
• 29:45
  Ryan: I'll
• 29:46
  Kearns: I,
• 29:46
  Ryan: it.
• 29:46
  I like the last Boy Scout.
• 29:47
  Kearns: I'm gonna, I'm going, gonna cut that one.
• 29:51
  I'm gonna go ahead and say what everybody's thinking.
• 29:53
  I'm gonna cut.
• 29:55
  Ryan: I have no choice.
• 29:57
  I'm just gonna enjoy it.
• 29:58
  I'm gonna grin it.
• 29:59
  It's not a bad film.
• 30:01
  Jon: No, it's fine.
• 30:02
  Ryan: I.
• 30:02
  Jon: fine.
• 30:03
  Yeah.
• 30:03
  I mean, once you get past that opening with the shooting on
• 30:07
  the football field, like in the middle of a game, like it's fine.
• 30:11
  It's fine.
• 30:12
  Kearns: um, which Damon Wayne's Buddy Up movie is better?
• 30:15
  This one or the one with Adam Sandler?
• 30:18
  Uh, what the hell was it called?
• 30:20
  Where he does
• 30:21
  Jon: Oh,
• 30:22
  Ryan: about,
• 30:22
  Jon: Bulletproof.
• 30:23
  Kearns: Bulletproof.
• 30:24
  Bulletproof is
• 30:25
  Ryan: hundred
• 30:26
  Kearns: so good.
• 30:26
  Ryan: better.
• 30:27
  Kearns: Bulletproof's one of the best movies like comedies I
• 30:30
  think I've ever seen, actually, like I laughed until it hurt.
• 30:34
  Ryan: That was the time when, like you had money talks as well with
• 30:37
  Kearns: Yeah.
• 30:38
  Ryan: Charlie,
• 30:39
  Kearns: Come on, let's
• 30:40
  Jon: May
• 30:40
  Kearns: look.
• 30:40
  Who's talking?
• 30:42
  Ryan: with a vengeance.
• 30:44
  Jon: you are both gonna be sorely disappointed at the movie you are keeping
• 30:50
  Ryan: Oh,
• 30:50
  Kearns: Oh no,
• 30:51
  Ryan: is one
• 30:51
  Kearns: that was just cruel.
• 30:53
  Ryan: Okay,
• 30:54
  Kearns: just cruel.
• 30:55
  I
• 30:55
  Jon: this isn't even, this isn't even that late.
• 30:58
  Kearns: I just, I resent that
• 30:59
  Jon: This is,
• 30:59
  Kearns: Parker's in the picture now.
• 31:01
  Jon: this is like early nineties.
• 31:03
  Ryan: Really
• 31:04
  Jon: It's not even that late.
• 31:05
  This was like, all right, I'm just gonna make movies that are
• 31:08
  die hard in a different place.
• 31:12
  Kearns: Striking.
• 31:12
  All right.
• 31:13
  So I would rather have last boy scout than striking distance.
• 31:16
  For sure.
• 31:16
  Ryan: I guess striking distance as well.
• 31:18
  So you know what, but that's a good marathon start horrible and then like work
• 31:22
  it up to like the better, you know, maybe
• 31:26
  Kearns: We knew he was gonna do this, and we still fell for it.
• 31:29
  Still fell for it.
• 31:30
  You
• 31:31
  Jon: mean,
• 31:32
  Ryan: I
• 31:32
  Jon: I went,
• 31:33
  Kearns: mayhem.
• 31:34
  Jon: I went 12 monkeys, pulp fiction, fifth element, 1, 2, 3.
• 31:40
  Kearns: We kept them all.
• 31:42
  Ryan: Well
• 31:42
  Jon: Oh, y'all, you both cut 12 monkeys.
• 31:45
  Kearns: Oh yeah, you're right.
• 31:46
  We did cut 12 monkeys.
• 31:47
  Ryan: Fiction and fifth Element are excellent, sir.
• 31:50
  Kearns: Yeah.
• 31:50
  I'm glad we had those
• 31:52
  Jon: No, I mean, those are fine.
• 31:56
  Ryan: It's great.
• 31:57
  Jon: I knew I was gonna get you guys.
• 31:59
  I knew at least one of you is keeping striking distance.
• 32:05
  Kearns: thought we were friends.
• 32:06
  So
• 32:07
  Jon: I mean, you, yeah.
• 32:08
  You were, both getting way too comfortable with the format of
• 32:10
  me trying to get you to, to have no spots left for a good movie.
• 32:15
  Kearns: yeah, it's true.
• 32:16
  we had you figured out for a bit there.
• 32:18
  Jon: you're getting too comfortable.
• 32:19
  I had to mess it up.
• 32:21
  Kearns: Let me think here, let me think here as we wrap up
• 32:24
  this episode on the sixth Sense.
• 32:26
  Bruce Willis did two movies while technically three movies, if you count
• 32:30
  the cameo four movies with M Knight.
• 32:33
  Ryan: Yep.
• 32:33
  Kearns: So he did split, he did Mr. Glass, he was the cameo in Split Rather.
• 32:39
  He did
• 32:40
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 32:41
  Mm-hmm.
• 32:42
  Kearns: Glass.
• 32:42
  He did, uh, or just Glass, is it called?
• 32:45
  I forget what the last of that trilogy is.
• 32:47
  Jon: I think it's just glass.
• 32:48
  Kearns: he did, this one.
• 32:49
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 32:51
  Kearns: and then he was a, Tarantino.
• 32:53
  I as well.
• 32:54
  Right.
• 32:54
  He did two Tarantino movies or one He was in Pulp Fiction.
• 32:58
  Ryan: Fiction.
• 32:59
  Jon: Fiction.
• 33:01
  Ryan: I think just the one.
• 33:02
  Kearns: Oh,
• 33:03
  Jon: I think just the one, yeah.
• 33:04
  Kearns: had to, uh, had to rope him into that because
• 33:07
  that really blew up the casting
• 33:10
  Ryan: Oh,
• 33:10
  Kearns: when he was able to get Bruce Willis?
• 33:12
  Yeah.
• 33:13
  That's a cool story.
• 33:14
  Tarantino tells it on a podcast, I don't remember which one, if it's Rogan or Two
• 33:19
  Bears, one cave or something like that.
• 33:21
  But he, he does an interview and he talks about the process getting Bruce
• 33:25
  Willis and then Bruce Willis passed on it initially and then came crawling back
• 33:30
  'cause everybody was telling him Tarantino was gonna be like the next big thing.
• 33:33
  But that's not how Tarantino tells it.
• 33:36
  Tarantino doesn't tell it like that.
• 33:37
  'cause that's a bit of a pompous way to, to describe it if it's you.
• 33:41
  But that's the way I interpreted it.
• 33:45
  Came back.
• 33:45
  He's like, I actually, I got a chance to look over the script again.
• 33:49
  You know, one of those things.
• 33:50
  Ryan: Yeah, but
• 33:51
  Jon: Yeah.
• 33:52
  Ryan: he wanted to be either Jules or Vincent Vega, and he was
• 33:55
  like, you should just be butch.
• 33:57
  he took it.
• 33:58
  Kearns: Yeah.
• 34:00
  And then I think it's because he was talking about how Butch's character
• 34:03
  would act, and he was like, that's why you have to be butch because you're
• 34:08
  the only one who seems to get, like, has an understanding of the character.
• 34:12
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 34:13
  Kearns: he got him that way, but he had Travolta too.
• 34:15
  Like having Travolta and Uma Thurman on board is pretty huge.
• 34:19
  Ryan: was like low in his career at this time.
• 34:21
  So I, I
• 34:22
  Jon: Oh, yeah.
• 34:23
  Ryan: I might be mistaken, but that's what I think, right.
• 34:26
  Jon: No.
• 34:27
  Yeah.
• 34:27
  This is the, Travolta revival and like sort of started the tradition of
• 34:32
  Tarantino reviving actor's careers.
• 34:36
  He did that a bunch.
• 34:38
  Kearns: right, right.
• 34:39
  Ryan: and this is like before Michael, right?
• 34:41
  Because he came popularity
• 34:43
  Jon: Yeah.
• 34:43
  Ryan: as well?
• 34:44
  Yeah.
• 34:44
  Jon: Yeah.
• 34:45
  Yeah.
• 34:46
  Pulp Fiction.
• 34:48
  Pulp Fiction brought him back and you got Michael and Phenomenon and like,
• 34:52
  he kind of wasted it for a while.
• 34:54
  Kearns: He did phenomenon after Pulp Fiction.
• 34:57
  Jon: I believe so.
• 34:57
  Yeah.
• 34:58
  Kearns: Wow.
• 34:58
  I love phenomenon.
• 35:01
  Ryan: Phenomenon
• 35:01
  Kearns: you're saying you, he wasted it.
• 35:03
  You mean like phenomenon
• 35:04
  Jon: Uh,
• 35:04
  Kearns: movie.
• 35:04
  You don't like it?
• 35:05
  Oh, I, love that movie.
• 35:07
  Ryan: 96.
• 35:08
  Jon: I, I, it, I thought it was okay when I watched it originally.
• 35:11
  I don't think it would hold up
• 35:13
  Kearns: I've seen it like six times.
• 35:16
  Ryan: Does it hold up, is the question?
• 35:18
  Jon: you get broke,
• 35:19
  Kearns: it's
• 35:19
  Jon: you get Broken Arrow.
• 35:21
  Kearns: yeah.
• 35:23
  Jon: I love Broken Arrow.
• 35:24
  Broken.
• 35:24
  Arrow is my favorite spoiled movie story.
• 35:29
  Kearns: Oh
• 35:29
  Jon: So I'm, I'm sitting there watching this like shortly
• 35:33
  after it came out on video in my apartment with my two roommates.
• 35:39
  And you know, it starts and Travolta comes on screen.
• 35:42
  One guy's seen it, one guy hasn't seen it.
• 35:44
  I've seen it.
• 35:45
  This.
• 35:45
  This guy's just like, oh, I love this movie.
• 35:48
  Travolta's such a good villain.
• 35:51
  And the guy's like, dude,
• 35:53
  Kearns: It's the Twist.
• 35:54
  Yeah.
• 35:56
  You fool.
• 35:58
  Best, um, best Travolta villain movie.
• 36:00
  What do you guys think?
• 36:02
  Ryan: Uh,
• 36:03
  Kearns: at least three.
• 36:06
  Jon: battlefield Earth.
• 36:07
  Ryan: well you,
• 36:10
  Kearns: Claim, my friend,
• 36:12
  Ryan: did
• 36:12
  Kearns: that is a great guest,
• 36:13
  Ryan: the full thing?
• 36:15
  Jon: No,
• 36:15
  Kearns: hot
• 36:16
  Jon: no.
• 36:17
  Kearns: That that movie was playing on a loop in my house for like three
• 36:20
  weeks because I had the hot box.
• 36:21
  Oh my God.
• 36:23
  Is that movie bad?
• 36:24
  Ryan: That.
• 36:24
  Yeah, I was gonna say that movie had high hopes.
• 36:26
  I wish I had the
• 36:28
  Kearns: Any Oscar winners are in that movie?
• 36:29
  Is it just Forrest Whitaker?
• 36:32
  Ryan: I,
• 36:34
  Kearns: I think there's like a battlefield earth like thing where you can go down.
• 36:37
  Like all of the awards of surrounding that horrible movie.
• 36:42
  So face off.
• 36:43
  By the way, it was a phishing for you guys to bring up Face
• 36:45
  Off as Best, Travolta villain.
• 36:47
  Ryan: is he really the villain?
• 36:49
  Kearns: That's the, that's why I brought it up.
• 36:50
  I was trying to stir the pot.
• 36:52
  Ryan: Is he really the villain though?
• 36:53
  Jon: before we get to our final thoughts on Sixth Sense, I almost
• 36:58
  forgot what movie we were doing.
• 36:59
  We've been so far away from it this whole time.
• 37:01
  Um,
• 37:02
  Kearns: That's the only thing that's made
• 37:03
  Jon: bef
• 37:04
  Kearns: listenable.
• 37:05
  Jon: be Before, before our opinions.
• 37:08
  Do you guys want to hear some other people's opinions?
• 37:12
  I have three reviews for you.
• 37:13
  Kearns: into that.
• 37:15
  Jon: I, have a five star.
• 37:18
  There's a lot of five stars.
• 37:19
  It was harder to find, this is the rare one.
• 37:21
  It was kind of hard to find low scores.
• 37:25
  So five stars.
• 37:26
  even if you know the twist going in M Knight, SHA Milan's
• 37:30
  sophomore feature film.
• 37:32
  I don't think it was a sophomore, that was nominated for six Oscars, including
• 37:37
  Best Picture is still a masterful thriller that proves that he is a talented director
• 37:43
  with a cast at the top of their game.
• 37:45
  It's a fair review.
• 37:46
  Like, I mean, it's a fair,
• 37:47
  Kearns: game.
• 37:48
  Jon: yeah, I mean, I don't know about that part.
• 37:51
  It's not Bruce's best.
• 37:52
  It's definitely, it's definitely not Tony Collette's.
• 37:56
  What's his first?
• 37:57
  Kearns: Praying with Anger came out before the sixth Sense in 1992, which
• 38:01
  is considered to be his first feature film since it technically was though.
• 38:06
  It played mostly at festivals and it was autobiographical.
• 38:12
  Jon: Oh,
• 38:14
  Kearns: All right, so you're right, reviewer were,
• 38:17
  Jon: okay.
• 38:18
  Kearns: although
• 38:19
  Jon: the one.
• 38:19
  Kearns: technically, right?
• 38:20
  Ryan: What's
• 38:21
  Jon: Yeah,
• 38:23
  Ryan: What's the,
• 38:24
  Kearns: The twist is his career.
• 38:27
  Ryan: is that why he was praying with anger?
• 38:30
  Kearns: Yeah, for real.
• 38:31
  All right, John, we stepped on you hard.
• 38:33
  Jon: it, it, it's okay.
• 38:35
  Um, I was questioning the actors at the top of their game be I've, we've
• 38:40
  definitely, we've seen Bruce better.
• 38:44
  Tony Collette gets a lot better.
• 38:46
  Ryan: I
• 38:47
  Kearns: I guess Hailey, Joel might be the, that might have been his best.
• 38:50
  Jon: Well, I mean,
• 38:51
  Ryan: that was the
• 38:52
  Jon: maybe,
• 38:53
  Ryan: right?
• 38:54
  Jon: maybe
• 38:54
  Ryan: role.
• 38:56
  Jon: so.
• 38:56
  I, I mean, it might, maybe it's Misha Barton's best
• 39:01
  Kearns: Oh yeah.
• 39:01
  M well, Misha Barton was in what?
• 39:03
  The oc
• 39:05
  Jon: I. Like I said, they might be Misha Barton's best.
• 39:08
  Kearns: Fair point.
• 39:09
  Um, no, Hailey Joel was better in secondhand Lions.
• 39:13
  Ryan: Oh, he,
• 39:13
  Jon: Oh yeah.
• 39:14
  I forgot about secondhand lines
• 39:16
  Kearns: Raucously Good movie.
• 39:18
  He was in
• 39:19
  Jon: and
• 39:19
  Kearns: intelligence too, but I
• 39:20
  Jon: yeah, he was, yep.
• 39:22
  Ryan: fors Gump Jr.
• 39:25
  Kearns: Oh dude, he was in Tusk, bro.
• 39:27
  Ryan: Yes.
• 39:28
  Yes, he is.
• 39:29
  Jon: Yeah, yeah, he is.
• 39:31
  Kearns: Um,
• 39:32
  Jon: I think,
• 39:33
  Kearns: quite a lot.
• 39:34
  Ryan: He's in, here, he's in Entourage, which, you know the movie at
• 39:40
  Kearns: He's in a movie with Tom Sellick.
• 39:43
  Say what?
• 39:47
  Ryan: Wait, what?
• 39:47
  What movie with
• 39:49
  Jon: tell me, tell me.
• 39:50
  It's a Magnum PI six sense crossover.
• 39:53
  Kearns: Kinda looks like it, it's called Last Stand at Saber River.
• 39:57
  It sounds like a porn.
• 39:58
  Jon: Oh.
• 40:00
  Kearns: Secondhand lions.
• 40:02
  I'm, I'm staking my claim.
• 40:03
  That movie is phenomenal
• 40:04
  Ryan: No, I, I second that with you.
• 40:07
  That's a great film.
• 40:08
  Kearns: and he's older in it, so he actually gets to act a bit instead of
• 40:11
  just being like, kid do this, kid do
• 40:13
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 40:14
  Kearns: All right,
• 40:14
  Jon: Yeah.
• 40:15
  Kearns: I'm with you, John.
• 40:16
  I think, hereditary would be, I don't never remember the actress and I feel
• 40:20
  terrible for this 'cause she's quite good.
• 40:22
  I
• 40:22
  Jon: Tony Collette.
• 40:23
  Kearns: Is it Tony Collette?
• 40:24
  She's
• 40:24
  Jon: Yep.
• 40:24
  Kearns: and hereditary.
• 40:26
  even though I don't like hereditary as much as like everyone else seems to,
• 40:31
  because it's a ripoff of Rosemary's baby and I will, I will die on that hill.
• 40:35
  spoiler for the episode.
• 40:36
  We're gonna probably do one day on Hereditary, but yeah.
• 40:39
  I think she grows with her career as well 'cause Six Sense
• 40:42
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 40:43
  Kearns: role too.
• 40:43
  Jon: Yeah.
• 40:44
  Yeah.
• 40:45
  Ryan: And she's had,
• 40:47
  Jon: Yep.
• 40:47
  Ryan: a great career.
• 40:48
  I mean, little Miss Sunshine, uh,
• 40:51
  Kearns: Such a good movie.
• 40:52
  Ryan: Juror number two, nightmare Alley, Mickey 17, like, I'm going all over.
• 40:57
  Jon: Yeah,
• 40:58
  Ryan: had a, a great career.
• 40:59
  And
• 41:00
  Jon: went on her, she, she's had a really, really nice career.
• 41:03
  And Bruce is kind of like the action version of someone like Michael
• 41:06
  Kane who does like, good movie.
• 41:09
  Good movie, paycheck movie.
• 41:12
  Good movie, good movie Paycheck,
• 41:15
  Kearns: Yeah,
• 41:17
  that's fair.
• 41:18
  Ryan: with Moonlighting.
• 41:21
  Kearns: Oh man.
• 41:21
  Jon: moonlighting.
• 41:22
  Kearns: a good movie.
• 41:23
  Jon: The first two,
• 41:25
  Ryan: Oh.
• 41:25
  Jon: first two, three seasons of Moonlighting are as good a television.
• 41:29
  Hudson Hawk was not, yeah, Hudson Hawk was good.
• 41:32
  Kearns: I mean,
• 41:32
  it was an enjoy.
• 41:33
  I didn't even know it existed, and it was on one day and I was watching
• 41:36
  it back when I had television like,
• 41:39
  Jon: his,
• 41:39
  Kearns: He's singing
• 41:40
  Jon: his,
• 41:40
  Kearns: He's singing
• 41:41
  Jon: his first season, cameo in Miami Vice.
• 41:44
  Be, which was before Moonlighting.
• 41:50
  Ryan: And he
• 41:50
  Jon: an episode there.
• 41:51
  Kearns: that.
• 41:53
  Did you, find a zero review or a one star review?
• 41:56
  Jon: I found a one and a half.
• 41:57
  I just wanted to touch on one more thing from that and how excited
• 42:01
  I am for the potential for horror at the Academy Awards this year,
• 42:05
  because I think it's very reasonable that Frankenstein gets nominated.
• 42:10
  I think it's also become pretty inevitable that sinners is gonna get some noms too,
• 42:18
  Kearns: It's definitely
• 42:18
  Jon: and
• 42:19
  Kearns: because of just the nature of the film.
• 42:22
  Jon: mm-hmm.
• 42:22
  It's also, I mean, of the movies I saw this year that are, you know, you
• 42:27
  would consider to be Oscar contenders, it's about as good as any of them.
• 42:32
  Kearns: I'm guessing you just said Frankenstein is as good as any of them.
• 42:35
  Jon: I said sinners is, but Frankenstein is too.
• 42:39
  He, he.
• 42:40
  Kearns: I would rather Sinners win than uh, the other movie that's in
• 42:44
  contention that we've all talked about.
• 42:47
  Jon: See, I like that movie.
• 42:48
  Kearns: I know you did.
• 42:49
  I don't want to get
• 42:50
  Jon: I liked it a lot.
• 42:51
  Kearns: another 20 minutes on a
• 42:52
  Jon: Nope.
• 42:53
  Nope.
• 42:53
  Alright, one star, which I, I don't really agree with this one star either.
• 43:00
  The so-called twist ending is predictable after the first scene.
• 43:05
  The whole story is in service of the twist.
• 43:08
  I agree.
• 43:08
  And ultimately feels hollow, like all M Night shaalan movies.
• 43:13
  Kearns: So we saw this one after he'd seen other ones, so
• 43:17
  Jon: Absolutely.
• 43:17
  Kearns: he's been tainted.
• 43:18
  Jon: Absolutely.
• 43:19
  Kearns: But if
• 43:20
  Jon: Absolutely.
• 43:20
  Kearns: broski, if you had, I don't believe that he knew
• 43:23
  what was going to happen.
• 43:24
  Not a chance.
• 43:25
  Ryan: No,
• 43:26
  Jon: No.
• 43:26
  Kearns: like, every M Night movie's got a twist.
• 43:28
  I'm gonna watch the sixth
• 43:29
  Jon: Yeah, yeah,
• 43:30
  Kearns: know what's gonna happen.
• 43:31
  Jon: yeah.
• 43:32
  Yeah.
• 43:32
  Kearns: he sat down staring at the tv like, oh, there's the twist.
• 43:35
  He got shot.
• 43:36
  He's dead already.
• 43:38
  Like, I don't believe it though.
• 43:39
  I think this is
• 43:39
  Jon: No.
• 43:40
  Kearns: bola.
• 43:41
  Ryan: turned.
• 43:42
  He turned the TV off before the best parts came.
• 43:45
  It's like it's over.
• 43:47
  Jon: Yep, yep.
• 43:49
  And then we have the great half star review.
• 43:54
  Ryan: half stars.
• 43:56
  Jon: Oh, I, I think the half star is because they don't allow you to do zero.
• 44:01
  So, 'cause this is a zero star review.
• 44:05
  The start of a career for one of the most overrated over sensationalized
• 44:10
  director to ever exist in cinema.
• 44:14
  A cheek knockoff of an Are you afraid of the dark episode?
• 44:19
  Predictable, pointless, have seen better film on teeth.
• 44:24
  Kearns: You and I just watched that episode.
• 44:26
  That's so funny.
• 44:28
  Jon: Between the plot holes, the predictability and the
• 44:31
  general idiocy of the film.
• 44:34
  This should have been a one and done.
• 44:36
  But no, somehow this insipid little film was a success.
• 44:41
  Astounds me
• 44:44
  Ryan: I love the, are you afraid the dark?
• 44:46
  Shout out.
• 44:47
  You know, that's.
• 44:49
  Kearns: it's called The Tale of the Dream Girl, the one they're referencing
• 44:53
  Jon: Uhhuh.
• 44:53
  Kearns: by the way.
• 44:54
  And we did, we literally just watched it, because Kim, turned onto it for
• 44:58
  some reason, and we didn't remember it.
• 45:01
  So we gave it a watch and it was like, it was good, but we
• 45:06
  definitely predicted the ending.
• 45:08
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 45:08
  Ryan: I know which one this is.
• 45:13
  Kearns: Yeah.
• 45:14
  Jon: 'cause I never saw any of those.
• 45:15
  Kearns: I spoil it for the listeners?
• 45:17
  Ryan: Yeah.
• 45:18
  Kearns: So.
• 45:20
  Jon: everything else.
• 45:20
  Kearns: true.
• 45:21
  It's the one where he's like, dude, he works in a bowling alley in this
• 45:23
  like, smoking hot eighties girl, well, I guess nineties comes in all the
• 45:28
  time and is like in love with him.
• 45:31
  And he is in love with her and he is trying to like, you know,
• 45:34
  do things that teenagers do.
• 45:37
  his sister rags on him all the time.
• 45:39
  And, it goes back and forth and then you find out at the end that things
• 45:44
  are getting weird and she's like really pushy and she's calling him
• 45:47
  at weird times and all this stuff.
• 45:48
  And then we figure out they, he's dead.
• 45:51
  sister's the only one who can see him for some reason.
• 45:53
  They never flushed that out.
• 45:55
  And, the mother that's been interacting with him throughout
• 45:57
  the entire show and has been sad about stuff is because he's dead.
• 46:01
  But, if he hasn't really been interacting with him, they just
• 46:03
  tricked us, like the sixth sense.
• 46:05
  And then the dream girl is.
• 46:09
  to get him to cross over with her to like the other side.
• 46:13
  that's like the whole premise of the episode.
• 46:15
  And then he leaves and it's been neat.
• 46:18
  Ryan: it's a good episode actually.
• 46:19
  I remember that episode now
• 46:21
  Kearns: It's pretty good.
• 46:22
  Watch it again.
• 46:23
  Check out.
• 46:23
  Smoking Hot nineties girl.
• 46:26
  Ryan: from a
• 46:26
  Kearns: She's got, she's like 25.
• 46:27
  It was back when they used to cast like retirees as teenagers.
• 46:31
  So everybody relax.
• 46:33
  All right.
• 46:33
  Ryan: retirees
• 46:35
  Jon: And I mean,
• 46:36
  Kearns: The pain,
• 46:37
  Jon: when, I don't even know, when are you afraid of the dark came out?
• 46:40
  Ryan: early
• 46:40
  Kearns: it was on, uh, sn.
• 46:42
  Yeah, it was on sncc and it, was like the eight o'clock I used to watch.
• 46:46
  Are you Afraid of the Dark?
• 46:47
  And then roll over to Monster Vision.
• 46:48
  Ryan: Yep.
• 46:49
  Nine 30 on Saturdays.
• 46:51
  Kearns: So it was nine 30 and then Monster Vision started at 10.
• 46:54
  Ryan: Yep.
• 46:55
  Jon: Like what years?
• 46:56
  Kearns: I don't know, I was in like second through fourth grade.
• 46:59
  So.
• 46:59
  Ryan: the
• 47:00
  Jon: So I like, I mean, it's probably fairly legit that you found her hot.
• 47:04
  Anyway,
• 47:05
  Ryan: So
• 47:05
  Kearns: Well, I found her hot like now, not back then.
• 47:09
  I was too young.
• 47:11
  Jon: it's like that's the age my Alyssa Milano crush started.
• 47:14
  Kearns: Well, I mean, yeah, that transcends age and
• 47:17
  Jon: Like I,
• 47:17
  Kearns: That's Alyssa Milano.
• 47:19
  Jon: I, she and I are the same age.
• 47:21
  So like who's the boss was like, oh, hi.
• 47:25
  Kearns: Yeah, that'll
• 47:26
  Jon: And then yeah.
• 47:28
  Kearns: No, uh, yeah.
• 47:32
  Are you afraid of the dark ran?
• 47:35
  At that time there was some like reality or some like comedy sketch
• 47:39
  show that came on before it, and then two more shows came on before
• 47:41
  that started at eight, ended at 10,
• 47:43
  and then Nick at night started.
• 47:45
  That's when you knew that the good times were over
• 47:47
  Ryan: oh,
• 47:48
  Kearns: like the Honeymooners came on.
• 47:51
  Yeah, whatever came out right after SNCC was like disappointing.
• 47:53
  And then they put a buffer show in between them.
• 47:56
  They put like a mid-range age show in there.
• 47:58
  But yeah.
• 48:00
  Anyway, we all think the sixth sense is great.
• 48:04
  Jon: I think the sixth sense is fine.
• 48:06
  Kearns: Yeah, it's fine.
• 48:07
  Jon: It holds up differently.
• 48:08
  Like I was texting you guys while I was watching it about how it wasn't
• 48:12
  holding up, and then I got to that last 20 minutes and it changes how you
• 48:18
  feel about the whole movie because you know, as you get older and you have
• 48:24
  loss and you have, and really starting with Misha Barton's funeral on, it's
• 48:30
  just a very emotional end to a movie
• 48:35
  Kearns: Yeah.
• 48:36
  Jon: and it elevated it quite a bit for me.
• 48:38
  I, think I put 6 cents in about the 3.75 range.
• 48:43
  Kearns: 3, 7, 5.
• 48:44
  All right.
• 48:45
  Fair.
• 48:45
  Ryan: 3, 7, 5.
• 48:47
  Kearns: What do you think Ryan?
• 48:48
  Ryan: No, actually, you know what?
• 48:49
  I was gonna go with the too.
• 48:50
  3, 7, 5, like watch.
• 48:54
  It's great.
• 48:55
  know, you get the twist.
• 48:57
  I watched it when I was in middle school, then rewatching it again,
• 49:00
  older, my twenties, getting a better understanding and rewatching it again.
• 49:05
  It's got a good story.
• 49:07
  M Knight's a good writer at that time for his first big blockbuster, but not a five
• 49:13
  outta five and it's not really a four.
• 49:15
  It's that 3.75 for me.
• 49:17
  I
• 49:18
  Kearns: Yeah, it's below a four.
• 49:19
  I'll give it a 3.5 just to be different, it's a good, it's a good movie.
• 49:24
  The Acting's done well.
• 49:25
  It's a,
• 49:25
  Jon: Yeah,
• 49:26
  Kearns: done film.
• 49:26
  You will enjoy it if you watch it without knowing what's
• 49:28
  Jon: yeah,
• 49:29
  Kearns: You should have enjoyed it when you fir.
• 49:30
  Everybody enjoyed it when they first came out,
• 49:32
  Jon: yeah.
• 49:33
  And you can still enjoy it now.
• 49:36
  Kearns: at the end
• 49:37
  Jon: There's,
• 49:37
  Kearns: It's a gimmicky movie
• 49:39
  Jon: mm-hmm.
• 49:39
  Kearns: sick of the gimmick.
• 49:41
  Jon: Yeah.
• 49:41
  if this was the only time he employed these tricks, I think
• 49:46
  it would still hit better.
• 49:47
  But that, became just his brand, kind of dampens it a little bit.
• 49:55
  Kearns: Are we ever gonna do Shutter Island?
• 49:57
  Ryan: Oh,
• 49:58
  Kearns: you think it's not
• 49:59
  Jon: could,
• 49:59
  Kearns: horror?
• 50:00
  Jon: we could
• 50:01
  Kearns: I'm gonna shut up about it, but I have an opinion about this
• 50:04
  movie compared to Shutter Island.
• 50:05
  I'll wait until the Shutter Island episode to start saying all that stuff.
• 50:09
  So stay tuned, dear listeners.
• 50:12
  Ryan: curious.
• 50:13
  Jon: stay tuned.
• 50:14
  Kearns: the top five
• 50:16
  Ryan: Top five first.
• 50:17
  Top five of 2026.
• 50:19
  I'm
• 50:19
  Kearns: and the fastest one ever.
• 50:21
  It's gonna be a record.
• 50:23
  Ryan: so I am going with top five M night film.
• 50:30
  Kearns: I will end, I will literally hit the button
• 50:33
  Ryan: Are you, Dr. Evil?
• 50:35
  You're gonna press the red button.
• 50:37
  All right, hold on.
• 50:37
  I don't wanna go into the incinerator, but my top
• 50:40
  Kearns: sharks with.
• 50:41
  Alright, let's hear it.
• 50:43
  Ryan: top five.
• 50:44
  I'm gonna start off with, number five.
• 50:45
  It's based on a French language switch, graphic novel named Sandcastle, which
• 50:50
  I just learned about today actually.
• 50:52
  written, directed, and produced by M Knight.
• 50:54
  Again, top five M Knight films.
• 50:55
  It's old, follows a group of people who are vacationing, a rapidly
• 51:00
  aging on a secluded beach that they're brought by the hotel.
• 51:05
  It's really in your face.
• 51:07
  Like I said earlier with the Twist, you know, you see the, rapid aging and guess
• 51:12
  the idea of them escaping is the twist.
• 51:15
  But if you want a good M Night movie, I'd recommend old, and it's
• 51:19
  pretty recent coming out in 2021.
• 51:22
  four would be
• 51:26
  I kind of fell off him with like, know, the happening the village and, uh,
• 51:32
  devil, even though I did enjoy my first watch of it, I agreed there's a lot
• 51:38
  of problems with it, seeing it again.
• 51:41
  I feel like the visit's a good number four, just because
• 51:44
  there are a couple good twists.
• 51:45
  You know, it follows two young siblings, who go to stay with
• 51:49
  their estranged grandparents.
• 51:51
  But during the stay, the siblings notice their grandparents behaving bizarrely, and
• 51:55
  they set out to find the truth behind the strange circumstances at the farmstead.
• 52:00
  Number three, we are going with 2002 signs.
• 52:05
  I do enjoy the film.
• 52:07
  It was, a nice change, when I feel like at that time there wasn't a lot of
• 52:11
  science fiction or for me from that, my perspective, there wasn't a lot of science
• 52:16
  fiction that was at least in my face.
• 52:18
  focuses on a former priest named Graham Hess, who discovers a series
• 52:23
  of crop circles in his cornfield and the phenomenon in a result
• 52:26
  of extraterrestrial life stars.
• 52:28
  Mel Gibson, Joaquin Phoenix, And then that leads to number two, split.
• 52:34
  It's the sequel to the Unbreakable Trilogy, it's its own film following
• 52:39
  a man played by James McAvoy with Dissociative identity Disorder, who
• 52:44
  kidnaps an IMP persons three teenage girls and an isolated underground facility.
• 52:49
  did enjoy it.
• 52:50
  It's a nice follow up.
• 52:52
  Uh, the twist is what makes it a sequel, which was a nice nod.
• 52:57
  And number one is Unbreakable.
• 52:59
  Can't put the six sense on here.
• 53:01
  So Unbreakable is my number one.
• 53:04
  Basically it follows, David Dunn, played by Bruce Willis, who survives
• 53:07
  a train crash with no injuries, leading to the realization that
• 53:11
  he harbors superhuman abilities.
• 53:13
  As he begins to grapple with the discovery, he comes to the attention of
• 53:16
  a disabled comic book store owner Eisha Price, who manipulates David to understand
• 53:21
  him or as we know him, Mr. Glass.
• 53:24
  would recommend those five if you love M Night movies or if you
• 53:27
  want to give him night movies.
• 53:28
  Chance.
• 53:29
  And John, I'm curious to hear what your top five are.
• 53:32
  'cause I know you went with twists, so I'm curious.
• 53:35
  Jon: did go with Twist and the, the, the closest we're gonna get to a
• 53:41
  spoiler in my top five twists in horror.
• 53:45
  Is that just the title?
• 53:47
  I'm not gonna give you, give away anything except a brief description.
• 53:51
  I'm not gonna tell you the twist.
• 53:53
  So my number five.
• 53:56
  Now as we roll out of Christmas, my title number five is Better Watch Out.
• 54:04
  so a babysitter and the 12-year-old boy that she's sitting are forced to defend
• 54:09
  the home from a ruthless home invasion.
• 54:12
  Kearns: Babysitter trope kind of always comes back around, doesn't it?
• 54:15
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 54:16
  Kearns: call's coming from in the house.
• 54:18
  Jon: Yep.
• 54:18
  Yep.
• 54:19
  my number four is a movie starring Nicole Kidman called the others.
• 54:25
  Kearns: Yeah, one's a good one.
• 54:28
  Jon: Yeah.
• 54:28
  A woman and her two photo sensitive children live in her family estate.
• 54:33
  The trouble we begins when mom starts to believe the house is haunted.
• 54:37
  Kearns: It freaked me out in that movie was the locking of the doors.
• 54:41
  Jon: Yeah.
• 54:42
  Kearns: around and lock the doors after they went through them.
• 54:44
  I was young and I was like, this is, I don't like this.
• 54:46
  I don't like this at all.
• 54:48
  Jon: Mm-hmm.
• 54:49
  number three, one of Ty West's earlier movies, and I've really
• 54:54
  come to like what Ty West does, and it's the House of the Devil.
• 55:00
  a struggling college student takes a babysitting job that isn't all it seems.
• 55:05
  She's paid $400 and told that she's actually watching an older woman,
• 55:10
  and that's just the beginning of the weirdness in this one.
• 55:14
  Kearns: Interesting.
• 55:15
  Ryan: That
• 55:16
  Jon: Yeah, I, I think that has to go on the calendar somewhere.
• 55:20
  Ryan: Something.
• 55:21
  Jon: we've talked about the director.
• 55:23
  We did a whole episode on this, one of this director's movies.
• 55:26
  It's Eli Craig who directed Clown in the Cornfield, but this goes back before Clown
• 55:31
  the Cornfield with Tyler Labin and Alan Tig, it's Tucker and Dale versus Evil.
• 55:36
  Kearns: Nice.
• 55:37
  Jon: Which takes the twist on the hillbillies and the
• 55:41
  hillbillies as psycho killers.
• 55:43
  Two hillbillies vacationing at their new cabin are mistaken for psycho killers
• 55:47
  by a group of camping college students.
• 55:50
  Violence and hilarity ensue.
• 55:55
  And my number one I've been talking to you guys about for a couple of days
• 56:00
  now, I think, I think it's gonna get bumped onto the schedule really soon.
• 56:05
  It's, directed by Alexander Aja, who you know from other stuff he
• 56:10
  did later on, and it's high tension.
• 56:14
  Ryan: Yes.
• 56:16
  Jon: so a sadistic killer invades Maria and Alexia's Quiet
• 56:20
  weekend at a secluded farmhouse.
• 56:22
  The killer wipes out Alexia's whole family and kidnaps her Marie
• 56:26
  hides and then chases after to save her friend and catch the killer.
• 56:31
  Kearns: Nice.
• 56:33
  Ryan: you mentioned that to me.
• 56:34
  Yeah.
• 56:34
  This past weekend I looked it up.
• 56:37
  It looks good.
• 56:38
  Got my interest on there?
• 56:41
  Jon: Yep.
• 56:41
  Don't read too much.
• 56:42
  Kearns: up the top fives.
• 56:44
  Jon: yeah.
• 56:44
  Don't spoil that.
• 56:45
  Twist for yourself.
• 56:47
  Now
• 56:47
  Ryan: synopsis.
• 56:48
  Jon: twist.
• 56:49
  That's a twist.
• 56:52
  Kearns: Ah, that's actually high praise from John, guys.
• 56:56
  Ryan: Okay.
• 56:56
  Jon: Yeah.
• 56:57
  Kearns: All right, well that wraps up.
• 56:59
  That wraps up the top five and the
• 57:02
  Jon: right?
• 57:02
  Kearns: of the sixth Sense.
• 57:03
  Thank you guys.
