Speaker 3: Our nuclear reactor pumping out one million kilowatts of power.
0:51
Speaker 2: What's up and welcome to Movie Meltdown. I am Brian.
0:54
Speaker 4: Roger is here.
0:55
Speaker 5: This is Misty.
0:56
Speaker 3: This is Jay.
0:57
Speaker 6: Marlena.
0:59
Speaker 4: All right.
1:00
Speaker 2: Round out the crew. So I guess we can roll
1:04
Speaker 2: on into the geek activities this week.
1:06
Speaker 6: Sure.
1:08
Speaker 5: Shoot.
1:09
Speaker 4: You first, sir.
1:09
Speaker 3: What did you do?
1:10
Speaker 4: What was geeky in activities? Not much.
1:14
Speaker 2: There wasn't a whole lot of activities, period. The thing
1:17
Speaker 2: I did that I hated was painting more on this room,
1:20
Speaker 2: which you can't tell. Which is what angers me, is
1:24
Speaker 2: that I did it for like a whole morning and
1:26
Speaker 2: worked on it for hours, and yeah, you can't really tell.
1:28
Speaker 2: So it's really annoying, and I just hate household painting
1:31
Speaker 2: at this point. Yeah, so. Other than that, I re-watched
1:38
Speaker 2: in preparation for today's show that we'll get in later,
1:42
Speaker 2: Nightmare on Elm Street.
1:42
Speaker 4: The original.
1:43
Speaker 2: So, yeah, I guess I'll use it to my advantage later.
1:48
Speaker 2: We can compare and contrast or whatever the hell we're
1:50
Speaker 2: going to do. Other than that, the only thing close
1:54
Speaker 2: to watching I did was yesterday as I had my
1:56
Speaker 2: morning coffee. I sat down, and I was like, okay,
1:59
Speaker 2: I'm just going to watch something, whatever the hell's on,
2:01
Speaker 2: and yeah, What a Girl Wants was on.
2:03
Speaker 4: Oh, God.
2:04
Speaker 5: I do miss Amanda Bynes. She was delightful.
2:07
Speaker 7: Amanda.
2:07
Speaker 2: So yeah, I just kind of watched about 20 minutes
2:09
Speaker 2: as I sat there, prolonging the fact that I didn't
2:11
Speaker 2: want to start painting.
2:12
Speaker 8: Yeah.
2:13
Speaker 2: So I was just, yeah, kind of chilling out, having
2:15
Speaker 2: coffee with Amanda Bynes.
2:16
Speaker 5: Before her head got freakishly large and then evened back out.
2:18
Speaker 6: Yeah.
2:19
Speaker 2: So yeah, I guess she went through that awkward stage
2:21
Speaker 2: a little late, because yeah, she was cute as a kid,
2:23
Speaker 2: and she got kind of weird for a while there.
2:25
Speaker 5: She did the wiggly dance a lot.
2:27
Speaker 2: So, yeah, it was, as I remembered, kind of predictable
2:31
Speaker 2: and dorky, but that's pretty much it for my boring
2:35
Speaker 2: week this week.
2:35
Speaker 4: Anyone else? God, I think yours is pretty much the
2:38
Speaker 4: same as mine.
2:39
Speaker 5: You watch What a Girl Wants To?
2:41
Speaker 2: No. Lucky bastard.
2:43
Speaker 4: I went and bought the plush toys for the movie,
2:45
Speaker 4: from the movie. But since it's Derby Week, everybody here
2:49
Speaker 4: in Louisville knows, I was working and working and working
2:53
Speaker 4: and working and going in early and working, getting my
2:55
Speaker 4: ass kicked and working. So I didn't really have that
2:58
Speaker 4: much time to do anything when I was off hours,
3:03
Speaker 4: rather than go home and go to sleep and wake
3:05
Speaker 4: up and get ready to do the same thing the
3:07
Speaker 4: next day. So I think the one thing I did
3:10
Speaker 4: do was I watched, I finally checked out Miyazaki's latest movie, Ponyo,
3:15
Speaker 4: which is kind of like a loose adaptation of The
3:18
Speaker 4: Little Mermaid, where It's like a goldfish that dreams about
3:21
Speaker 4: being a human and can will itself into a human.
3:29
Speaker 5: Is there singing involved.
3:30
Speaker 4: At any point? There is no singing, thank God. But
3:32
Speaker 4: there's one point where she's just like, teeth! And her
3:36
Speaker 4: teeth pop out.
3:37
Speaker 9: And I'm like, yes!
3:39
Speaker 4: That's awesome. It's really cute. It's one of his more
3:42
Speaker 4: children-oriented movies, but the animation is awesome, really fluid, and
3:49
Speaker 4: I think that's the only geeky, geeky thing that I did.
3:54
Speaker 2: I've heard it's pretty good. No, it is good.
3:55
Speaker 4: Yeah, I love it.
3:56
Speaker 5: Yeah, we were pretty much slackers too. I think we
3:58
Speaker 5: all pretty much slacked this week on geek activities. Last
4:02
Speaker 5: night we settled down and watched Boondock Saints 2. Did
4:08
Speaker 5: you like the first one?
4:09
Speaker 4: The first one was, it's mindless gunplay and it was alright.
4:12
Speaker 5: The second one doesn't even have as much bile. It's
4:15
Speaker 5: just pointless.
4:15
Speaker 4: For some reason, a lot of people I've talked to
4:18
Speaker 4: love the characters and are like, this is one of
4:20
Speaker 4: the baddest movies ever.
4:22
Speaker 5: And I'm like, really? I hated Julie Benz in this movie.
4:26
Speaker 5: Her over the top. I couldn't decide if it was
4:27
Speaker 5: Texan or Southern accent because it seemed to switch back
4:30
Speaker 5: and forth. She was just incredibly obnoxious throughout the thing.
4:33
Speaker 5: Oh my god, I'm pretty sure Sean Patrick Flannery ate
4:36
Speaker 5: a former version of himself.
4:37
Speaker 4: Oh my god.
4:40
Speaker 5: In some angles, he looks like he's turning into Alan Rickman.
4:43
Speaker 5: I'm not sure how you even do this. It's like
4:50
Speaker 5: at first, like when I was first watching, I'm like,
4:52
Speaker 5: all right, I know who that is. I know that.
4:54
Speaker 5: I know who that is. Who is this guy?
4:56
Speaker 2: He's this portly gentleman.
4:58
Speaker 5: At the beginning, they all have these beards. You're used
5:01
Speaker 5: to Billy Connolly's character having a beard. And then, uh,
5:04
Speaker 5: The other guy whose name just completely flew out of
5:06
Speaker 5: my head, the less attractive brother.
5:08
Speaker 2: I don't think anybody knows his name.
5:09
Speaker 3: Who's now become the more attractive brother.
5:11
Speaker 5: Which is sad.
5:11
Speaker 7: Oh, really?
5:12
Speaker 4: Oh, wow.
5:13
Speaker 5: It is pretty sad because back in the day, Sean
5:15
Speaker 5: Patrick Flannery, he was gorgeous.
5:17
Speaker 2: Back when he was young Indy.
5:18
Speaker 5: Before he got all... Now his face is all just
5:21
Speaker 5: puffy and just like... They all have their shirt off
5:24
Speaker 5: at some point. This is the first time I've ever said, oh,
5:26
Speaker 5: for the love of God, man, just put your shirt
5:28
Speaker 5: back on.
5:28
Speaker 2: Maybe he's actually turning into Harrison Ford at this point.
5:32
Speaker 4: I don't know.
5:34
Speaker 5: At this point, I might rather see Harrison Ford with
5:36
Speaker 5: his shirt off.
5:37
Speaker 2: He's still hot.
5:38
Speaker 5: What are you talking about? Yeah, it wasn't good. But
5:41
Speaker 5: other than that, there's a few points in dialogue where
5:45
Speaker 5: I was just like, oh, for the love of God,
5:46
Speaker 5: are you serious? Somebody wrote this?
5:48
Speaker 3: Some of the dialogue sucked.
5:49
Speaker 5: Most of the dialogue sucked. There were very few lines
5:52
Speaker 5: that you could actually... Oh, that was witty. That was funny.
5:55
Speaker 5: And they were all said by the brothers because the
5:57
Speaker 5: rest of it just sucked.
5:58
Speaker 3: But yeah.
5:59
Speaker 10: Billy Benz's character seemed like it was trying to outdo
6:01
Speaker 10: the William Dafoe character.
6:04
Speaker 5: You can't.
6:04
Speaker 3: You can't.
6:05
Speaker 5: William Dafoe was a genius in that role. And just
6:08
Speaker 5: absolute weirdness.
6:09
Speaker 4: But she was just.
6:10
Speaker 10: Yeah, it was like they were like, okay, we're going
6:11
Speaker 10: to have to bring in a weird character. This other
6:13
Speaker 10: person that can kind of be like him. That'll be
6:15
Speaker 10: quirky and weird and... Yeah, she just turned out to
6:18
Speaker 10: be more annoying than anything else.
6:22
Speaker 5: So yeah, it just... I'm glad I don't own the
6:25
Speaker 5: second movie. I will never see it again, and I'm
6:26
Speaker 5: okay with it. Wow. Other than the Saturday morning, I
6:30
Speaker 5: sat down and watched the... I'm pretty sure it was almost...
6:33
Speaker 5: direct ripoff from fright night i watched uh never cry
6:37
Speaker 5: werewolf it's yet you replace the vampire with a werewolf
6:42
Speaker 5: and the boy with a girl and there you go.
6:45
Speaker 2: Yeah i'd never heard of this before but as you
6:47
Speaker 2: reported it to me yeah it's almost uh line for
6:50
Speaker 2: line note for note kind.
6:51
Speaker 5: Of like i'll break it down for you well there's
6:53
Speaker 5: because it's a girl she lives in an old neighborhood
6:55
Speaker 5: and of course the new mysterious neighbor shows up And
6:59
Speaker 5: that's his dog. He had a dog for some reason.
7:01
Speaker 2: As opposed to a secretly gay best friend.
7:04
Speaker 5: But yeah, then she's watching him through the window and
7:07
Speaker 5: she sees him bring home a prostitute and kill her.
7:11
Speaker 5: She calls the police and nobody believes her. And then
7:14
Speaker 5: she watches a lot of late night television because apparently
7:16
Speaker 5: girls don't get out. And then she's watching this apparently
7:18
Speaker 5: instead of a vampire hunter show, she's watching a hunter show.
7:22
Speaker 5: It's Kevin Sorbo as a wilderness hunter. Shooting big game.
7:27
Speaker 4: Oh, shit.
7:28
Speaker 5: He's hunting big game and shit. So she goes to
7:30
Speaker 5: recruit his help, and he has to break it to her. Like, honey, no,
7:32
Speaker 5: this is all fake. I'm not really a hunter. And
7:35
Speaker 5: then he gets to eventually, he feels bad that she's
7:38
Speaker 5: going to go die on her own.
7:40
Speaker 2: So he goes after her and helps.
7:42
Speaker 5: So yay, it all ends happily and funnily.
7:44
Speaker 4: Chivalry.
7:44
Speaker 5: But yeah, it's just pretty much scene for scene, character
7:47
Speaker 5: for character ripoff of Fright Night. But it still has
7:49
Speaker 5: its moments of entertainment, but by no means great. So
7:52
Speaker 5: yay for sci-fi.
7:54
Speaker 3: On Saturday morning, I watched Robot vs. Aztec Mummy.
7:58
Speaker 4: Nice.
7:59
Speaker 3: That sounds awesome.
8:00
Speaker 5: The MFT3K.
8:00
Speaker 10: Yeah, the Mystery Science Theater version, which was an earlier
8:04
Speaker 10: Mystery Science Theater.
8:05
Speaker 3: It was fun. okay. Wasn't that great?
8:08
Speaker 2: They didn't talk as much in the early days. That
8:10
Speaker 2: first season or two is pretty lackluster as things go.
8:14
Speaker 3: The movie was pretty crappy. I remember that. Some of
8:16
Speaker 3: the special effects were pretty bad.
8:17
Speaker 5: Did they ever have really good movies on there? No.
8:22
Speaker 3: Usually not.
8:24
Speaker 4: Mitchell was awesome.
8:25
Speaker 10: Izzy wanted to watch Werewolf again and I was like,
8:27
Speaker 10: let's not watch the same movie.
8:28
Speaker 2: The werewolves?
8:29
Speaker 3: Yeah. Look, he's a wereworm.
8:33
Speaker 4: Mitchell.
8:33
Speaker 3: Which is what she does.
8:34
Speaker 10: She watches the same one over and over and over
8:36
Speaker 10: again until she memorizes the dialogue.
8:38
Speaker 5: And then spouts it out at a very inappropriate time.
8:40
Speaker 10: Usually at the dinner table with my parents.
8:44
Speaker 3: She has no idea what's going on. Nobody else knows
8:47
Speaker 3: what's going on.
8:48
Speaker 11: So, yeah.
8:49
Speaker 3: She's like that.
8:50
Speaker 6: I think you're going to have to give an example
8:51
Speaker 6: of this because.
8:53
Speaker 10: Uh, we're just sitting at the dinner table and she
8:55
Speaker 10: could be like, Maddox, extra large!
8:58
Speaker 3: You know, and people are like, what?
9:01
Speaker 5: What?
9:02
Speaker 2: Does that mean you want extra mashed potatoes? Does she
9:04
Speaker 2: have code that we don't understand?
9:06
Speaker 10: Or we'll just be sitting there and she'll be like, uh, oh, geez, like,
9:11
Speaker 10: like Ego is her favorite one.
9:12
Speaker 6: Oh, God.
9:14
Speaker 3: She loves Ego, so she'll just be like.
9:16
Speaker 4: How long have I been oily?
9:17
Speaker 3: Yeah, stuff like that.
9:19
Speaker 2: That's inappropriate. Yeah.
9:22
Speaker 5: Or she does the one, she's like, sex appeal, ding.
9:25
Speaker 5: And I was like, you don't.
9:25
Speaker 3: Need to be saying that, okay?
9:27
Speaker 4: Quit saying that.
9:30
Speaker 6: Wow.
9:30
Speaker 4: Wacky fun.
9:31
Speaker 3: We watched another movie.
9:32
Speaker 5: Did we?
9:33
Speaker 6: Yeah.
9:33
Speaker 4: No, we didn't.
9:34
Speaker 5: We didn't?
9:34
Speaker 4: No.
9:35
Speaker 3: Are you sure?
9:36
Speaker 5: Yeah, we sent back JCVD without finishing watching it.
9:38
Speaker 2: We didn't watch any other movies by ourselves?
9:40
Speaker 5: I thought we did.
9:41
Speaker 6: No.
9:41
Speaker 11: No?
9:42
Speaker 4: Okay, well.
9:42
Speaker 3: The only other thing, yeah, like this one we did,
9:46
Speaker 3: but I guess we didn't. The only other super.
9:50
Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, I watched.
9:52
Speaker 3: Whatchamacallit? Ungbok.
9:54
Speaker 4: The second one?
9:56
Speaker 3: No, the first one.
9:57
Speaker 4: Have you never seen it?
9:58
Speaker 3: No, I kind of stayed away.
10:00
Speaker 10: From it good i mean well you know a lot
10:04
Speaker 10: of my friends are.
10:05
Speaker 12: Like oh time boxing you'll love this movie blah blah
10:08
Speaker 12: it's all it's all sham yeah it's all it's all
10:12
Speaker 12: uh act fighting and stuff like that so That's why
10:14
Speaker 12: I'd stayed away from it for a long time.
10:16
Speaker 3: But he does pretty good acrobatics and stuff.
10:17
Speaker 4: But when he, like, jumps and, like, grabs his ankles
10:20
Speaker 4: and pulls his legs behind him and, like, the double
10:22
Speaker 4: knee torpedo onto the guy's chest through the— that was awesome.
10:26
Speaker 3: There's a lot of acrobatics.
10:27
Speaker 4: Yeah.
10:28
Speaker 10: So it's kind of funny. I do like that he
10:30
Speaker 10: uses some of the old Thai weaponry.
10:32
Speaker 3: And stuff like that. But, you know, as far as
10:34
Speaker 3: real Thai boxing, it's.
10:35
Speaker 4: Not real Thai boxing. don't listen to the people yeah.
10:39
Speaker 5: I gave up i watched about five minutes of it in.
10:41
Speaker 10: One yeah she quit her i am like other than
10:44
Speaker 10: that what was your big geek purchase.
10:46
Speaker 5: Of the week i did buy a star trek watch
10:49
Speaker 5: with a little enterprise that goes around as the second
10:52
Speaker 5: i forgot to wear it super geek wow i was
10:56
Speaker 5: pretty upset that the sound button didn't work because it's
10:57
Speaker 5: supposed to play i got it at the flea market
11:00
Speaker 5: oh okay okay it's seven dollars This.
11:03
Speaker 2: Is the same flea market you got my book at?
11:05
Speaker 5: Yes.
11:06
Speaker 2: She did bring me a divine book, by the way.
11:08
Speaker 2: Written by his mother.
11:10
Speaker 5: Not divine as in godly in any way.
11:13
Speaker 2: I have one of those, too. Because I remember somebody
11:15
Speaker 2: was let down when they saw the divine images and
11:17
Speaker 2: it didn't have divine in it. It was actually about
11:19
Speaker 2: films about Jesus. Now I can balance it out with
11:23
Speaker 2: an actual book about divine.
11:25
Speaker 5: Written by, allegedly, his mother?
11:29
Speaker 6: Legend mother? You'd think she would know.
11:32
Speaker 2: His legendary mother.
11:34
Speaker 5: I just flipped through. I didn't actually read any of
11:36
Speaker 5: the words.
11:36
Speaker 12: Words.
11:37
Speaker 2: I don't want to look at words.
11:38
Speaker 5: The lady at the counter, she was confused.
11:41
Speaker 4: Yeah.
11:41
Speaker 3: What is this? That's an ugly looking woman.
11:45
Speaker 2: Holy shit.
11:45
Speaker 5: She flipped through. She's like, well, it looks interesting.
11:49
Speaker 2: That means we don't like your kind around here.
11:52
Speaker 5: What are you buying weird books like this for at
11:54
Speaker 5: our bookstore?
11:55
Speaker 3: I don't know why.
11:58
Speaker 5: What about you, Marlena? Did you do anything geeky this week?
12:01
Speaker 4: Lay it on us.
12:03
Speaker 6: Sadly, I didn't really do much. I bought a movie
12:06
Speaker 6: at A.J. Wright, which is kind of like an urban
12:08
Speaker 6: Big Lots for people who don't have A.J. Wrights in
12:11
Speaker 6: their area.
12:12
Speaker 5: I bought me some DVDs at A.J.
12:13
Speaker 2: Wright, too.
12:13
Speaker 5: I bought some of the Hitcher on DVDs. I thought
12:16
Speaker 5: about that when I did it.
12:17
Speaker 6: But I bought this movie called The Off Season and
12:21
Speaker 6: only watched half of it, but it seemed pretty good
12:23
Speaker 6: it's like a serious B movie that I've never heard
12:25
Speaker 6: of and never seen anyone.
12:26
Speaker 5: Does it have anybody in it that you would know no.
12:29
Speaker 6: I mean it's definitely a B movie but it's pretty
12:31
Speaker 6: eerie from what I've seen I don't know how it
12:34
Speaker 6: ends but what.
12:36
Speaker 5: You've seen what would it how would you describe it as.
12:38
Speaker 6: Well basically these people this couple moved to a vacation
12:43
Speaker 6: town during the off season and they live in a
12:45
Speaker 6: hotel and weird things start happening and uh the girl
12:49
Speaker 6: her mother had died recently and uh Every time the
12:53
Speaker 6: guy picks up the phone or something like that, it's
12:56
Speaker 6: her mother calling.
12:58
Speaker 5: Is it a recent movie?
13:00
Speaker 6: Probably in the last few years.
13:01
Speaker 5: It sounds vaguely familiar, but I can't actually picture it
13:04
Speaker 5: in my head.
13:05
Speaker 6: And the guy's acting is sometimes off, but the girl's
13:10
Speaker 6: acting is like for a B-movie. I'm pretty impressed with
13:13
Speaker 6: her acting so far, but I'm going to have to
13:15
Speaker 6: finish it.
13:17
Speaker 2: Sorry i don't know you still did something exceptionally geeky.
13:21
Speaker 4: Yeah definitely i failed no.
13:24
Speaker 2: You did you did an entirely different geeky thing you
13:27
Speaker 2: did get inked i mean there's nothing geekier than having
13:30
Speaker 2: something permanently put upon.
13:32
Speaker 6: Yourself i think last week we were talking about boob
13:34
Speaker 6: quake day yes we were monday was boob quake day.
13:37
Speaker 5: And you celebrate it in what.
13:39
Speaker 6: Way uh chess piece tattoo.
13:43
Speaker 5: No, what you needed to do was get a tattoo
13:44
Speaker 5: of a boob, of a boob, on your boob. That's
13:47
Speaker 5: a great idea.
13:48
Speaker 3: She's got a tattoo of Cameo.
13:51
Speaker 5: Not a cod.
13:52
Speaker 4: Not a cod.
13:54
Speaker 3: The lead singer from Cameo.
13:56
Speaker 2: Just big words that say Wordo.
13:58
Speaker 4: Yeah.
13:59
Speaker 2: But no, it's not that Cameo at all.
14:01
Speaker 5: And it's pretty fantastic, though.
14:04
Speaker 2: It's a cameo sort of kind of old school style,
14:07
Speaker 2: which actually is very fitting for you. Once you said it,
14:09
Speaker 2: I was like, yeah, I can see that.
14:11
Speaker 6: Well, see, now I don't know if I can wear
14:13
Speaker 6: all my necklaces and stuff. I keep wanting to buy
14:15
Speaker 6: necklaces just because I'm a compulsive shopper, but I don't
14:19
Speaker 6: know if they're going to clash or what.
14:21
Speaker 3: Yeah, cameo necklaces.
14:23
Speaker 6: I figure if it covers it exactly, it's fine.
14:26
Speaker 5: Otherwise, it might hold it there with tape.
14:28
Speaker 2: Yeah, it will cancel itself out.
14:31
Speaker 4: Yeah.
14:33
Speaker 2: Any other acting?
14:37
Speaker 6: I watched Nightmare on Elm Street, the first one with
14:39
Speaker 6: you yesterday.
14:41
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. We were catching up, trying to do research.
14:44
Speaker 5: I didn't do no research. I'm one of them non-researchers.
14:47
Speaker 6: You know, I was thinking about it as I watched it,
14:49
Speaker 6: because I was thinking I hadn't seen it for a
14:51
Speaker 6: really long time, but I remembered that I started watching
14:54
Speaker 6: it a few months ago and fell asleep.
14:57
Speaker 5: Don't fall asleep.
14:59
Speaker 2: Don't you listen to the instructions in this movie?
15:01
Speaker 6: I mean, the only time I have to really watch
15:03
Speaker 6: movies is like right before bed and I fall asleep.
15:07
Speaker 2: That's why I don't watch it the rest of the week.
15:09
Speaker 2: I'm lucky to get one in because I just go
15:11
Speaker 2: to sleep.
15:11
Speaker 6: Yeah. But it just made me think about all the
15:15
Speaker 6: other bad Freddy versions that I've watched. Most recently, Freddy vs.
15:20
Speaker 4: Jason.
15:21
Speaker 2: The last and worst example of such bad Freddies.
15:25
Speaker 6: Yeah.
15:27
Speaker 2: Well, that's sort of rounding it out. I thought I
15:30
Speaker 2: would just throw that out there. I saw this earlier today, actually,
15:33
Speaker 2: and I thought I would let at least you, Roger, know,
15:35
Speaker 2: but maybe all of us, because we all seem slightly
15:38
Speaker 2: obsessed with teenage girls.
15:39
Speaker 4: Yes.
15:40
Speaker 2: Miranda Cosgrove's new album dropped this week.
15:43
Speaker 4: Hi, Curly.
15:44
Speaker 5: How are you?
15:46
Speaker 4: She has an album now?
15:47
Speaker 2: Yeah, she has an album now.
15:49
Speaker 4: She's so cute.
15:50
Speaker 2: It's out as of this week. She's crossing over into
15:52
Speaker 2: rock star.
15:53
Speaker 5: She's way cuter and way better.
15:55
Speaker 4: Who's the chick that plays Sam on? I love Sam.
15:59
Speaker 6: She's snarky.
16:00
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think she's a lot cooler than.
16:03
Speaker 6: I really like Miranda Cosgrove's character on Drake and Josh
16:05
Speaker 6: a lot better than I like.
16:07
Speaker 2: Because she was evil.
16:09
Speaker 5: Team Selena Gomez.
16:11
Speaker 2: Now I don't know what y'all are talking about. That's
16:12
Speaker 2: in its own little category. I just think it's funny
16:15
Speaker 2: that they're all moving into that. Every one of them
16:18
Speaker 2: on these shows has their own album at this point.
16:20
Speaker 4: Jenny McCurdy.
16:21
Speaker 5: That's Sam from my car.
16:23
Speaker 2: Oh God, you're such a dork.
16:26
Speaker 10: At this point, I'm out in the garage working on
16:28
Speaker 10: the bike.
16:28
Speaker 4: Yeah, really, doing man things.
16:32
Speaker 3: I'm like, I'm going to go out in the garage.
16:34
Speaker 3: She's like, I'm going to watch a lot of whatever
16:36
Speaker 3: you're watching.
16:36
Speaker 4: We should have done Waverly Place.
16:40
Speaker 2: There's nothing manlier than looking at young girls.
16:42
Speaker 3: Yeah, although this is true.
16:44
Speaker 2: All right, so on that note, we will round out
16:48
Speaker 2: the Geek Week and take a break. At the speed
16:54
Speaker 2: of light But the exit sign's always on my mind
16:57
Speaker 2: Always in.
16:57
Speaker 1: My sight I could say that I Really want to
17:02
Speaker 1: stay But the devil inside always wins the fight Always.
17:05
Speaker 2: Gets his way Jump out the window Gotta.
17:09
Speaker 11: Get out on the highway.
17:11
Speaker 1: When things are getting too attached I need an escape
17:16
Speaker 1: I'm seeing stars And there is.
17:17
Speaker 5: Nothing more that I hate Baby.
17:19
Speaker 3: There's something that I hate.
17:23
Speaker 5: And I gotta say, it's disgusting how I love you.
17:26
Speaker 3: I can't take it.
17:27
Speaker 5: I should hate you.
17:29
Speaker 1: Cause you're messing up my name.
17:31
Speaker 5: Gotta walk my talk, my fame.
17:33
Speaker 2: But I just wanna touch your face.
17:37
Speaker 6: It's disgusting.
17:39
Speaker 2: It's disgusting. Golden, pure, creamery butter. Rich, flavorful, satisfying. That's
17:46
Speaker 2: what it takes for the finest buttered popcorn, and that's
17:49
Speaker 2: what we use. See for yourself why there's no showtime
17:52
Speaker 2: treat to equal the crisp, delicious flavor of hot popcorn
17:55
Speaker 2: that's bathed in real melted butter.
17:58
Speaker 8: It's at the concession stand now.
18:00
Speaker 7: Prepare to scream. The creeping, crawling flesh eaters cover the
18:04
Speaker 7: body in the most vile experiment ever devised.
18:08
Speaker 2: Flesh feast. Morbid horror in shock-throbbing color.
18:12
Speaker 7: Plus, on the same program, a ghastly tale drenched in
18:17
Speaker 7: clots of blood, a taste of blood, and teenage strangler.
18:23
Speaker 7: A new bluebird preying on budding teenyboppers. Don't miss them.
18:25
Speaker 5: Rated PG.
18:26
Speaker 11: We are family.
18:26
Speaker 3: We are the family.
18:27
Speaker 6: Give everybody a sing.
18:28
Speaker 10: Sing it to me, girls.
18:38
Speaker 3: Hello.

18:45
Speaker 9: Are you looking for knowledgeable discussions of directorial decisions?
18:49
Speaker 6: We don't do that.
18:50
Speaker 9: Are you looking for profound and deeply insightful critique of
18:54
Speaker 9: film as an art form?
18:55
Speaker 6: Dad, I don't even know what you're talking about.
18:57

20:16
Speaker 13: What's the buzz?
20:17
Speaker 4: Tell me what's happening.
20:19
Speaker 2: What's the buzz?
20:23
Speaker 3: Tell me what's happening.
20:25
Speaker 4: What's the buzz?
20:25
Speaker 2: It was better that time you did the 2001, you know.
20:29
Speaker 2: I think I just left that one in that week.
20:31
Speaker 2: I was like, I was so amused by it. I
20:33
Speaker 2: was like, what the hell is he doing?
20:34
Speaker 4: Just, just, just. i'll bring it back at one point
20:38
Speaker 4: keep everybody guessing yeah i'll surprise you sneak.
20:41
Speaker 5: It in their own ninja leg yes.
20:43
Speaker 2: All right well this wasn't even a totally a story
20:46
Speaker 2: i actually meant to bring this up last week and
20:48
Speaker 2: i forgot so i just wanted to see if you
20:49
Speaker 2: guys knew it or cared but i do now i
20:52
Speaker 2: actually knew uh about this and i don't think i
20:56
Speaker 2: put it into context until about two weeks ago I
20:59
Speaker 2: said a while back they were doing that Americanized remake
21:01
Speaker 2: of Let the Right One In, which is a bad idea.
21:04
Speaker 2: I've been sort of against that since the beginning just
21:06
Speaker 2: because we're too lazy as a country to go see
21:10
Speaker 2: another movie that might be different. We're involved for eating.
21:13
Speaker 5: If it helps, I won't watch that one either.
21:14
Speaker 2: No, but that's the thing. I didn't like that idea,
21:18
Speaker 2: and now you might change your vote, because I think
21:19
Speaker 2: I have now. Yeah, I think I remember hearing the
21:23
Speaker 2: casting a couple months ago, but I didn't know who
21:26
Speaker 2: it was. This week, I heard it again and went,
21:28
Speaker 2: holy shit, Chloe Moretz.
21:30
Speaker 5: She's the chick from Kick-Ass?
21:31
Speaker 2: Yeah. She's going to be the main girl, like the
21:36
Speaker 2: girl the whole movie centers around.
21:37
Speaker 4: Sweet.
21:38
Speaker 2: Okay, shit, now I'm going to have to go see
21:39
Speaker 2: this thing because she's awesome.
21:43
Speaker 5: Is she going to curse and say bad words? Probably.
21:45
Speaker 4: Like a sailor.
21:46
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
21:48
Speaker 2: So, yeah, it's coming out this October. So now, damn it,
21:52
Speaker 2: they've sort of swayed me on that one as much
21:54
Speaker 2: as I didn't like them doing a remake. I will
21:56
Speaker 2: go see Chloe because she's pretty fucking awesome.
21:58
Speaker 6: I don't know. I loved the original.
22:00
Speaker 5: The right one is.
22:01
Speaker 2: Going to be really good. And I'm afraid they're going
22:03
Speaker 2: to change the story. And I'm afraid they're going to
22:05
Speaker 2: go more with the book. Because as much as people
22:07
Speaker 2: are always like, oh, the book's better.
22:08
Speaker 4: I love the book.
22:09
Speaker 2: I've heard the story of the book and I don't
22:10
Speaker 2: like the story in the book. It takes a weird
22:13
Speaker 2: turn that I think would really kind of cheapen the story.
22:17
Speaker 2: It makes it not really... There's something nice about the
22:20
Speaker 2: story in that movie. And I think if they go
22:22
Speaker 2: with the book, it sort of fucks up the niceness of...
22:24
Speaker 2: that it sort of balances out the horror that's going
22:27
Speaker 2: on in that story. And I'm afraid they're going to
22:28
Speaker 2: fuck that up because we're Americanizing it and that's what
22:31
Speaker 2: we do. I agree.
22:33
Speaker 6: Really, I like the setting for the movie and the
22:37
Speaker 6: way it was maybe set in the 70s, maybe. I
22:41
Speaker 6: like the ambiguous timeline.
22:43
Speaker 2: Which you can do that off in the middle of nowhere.
22:45
Speaker 6: And I also like the boy who's so pale and so... Oscar.
22:50
Speaker 5: Oscar.
22:51
Speaker 2: Yeah. Which I think they're changing their names. They have
22:54
Speaker 2: to have Americanized names now. It's going to be like
22:56
Speaker 2: Sally and Johnny.
22:57
Speaker 5: We don't like the funny names.
23:00
Speaker 6: I don't know.
23:01
Speaker 2: We don't like you little foreign kids.
23:03
Speaker 6: Where was that movie set? I can't remember. Was it Norway?
23:06
Speaker 2: Was it Norway? I think it's Norway.
23:08
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so.
23:09
Speaker 2: Another one of those.
23:10
Speaker 4: Somewhere like that.
23:11
Speaker 2: Scandinavian horror movies.
23:13
Speaker 6: It confuses me.
23:17
Speaker 2: So, anyway, I was just, yeah, I heard that this
23:19
Speaker 2: past week, and I was like, holy shit. Again, I
23:22
Speaker 2: don't think I put it in context, because I hadn't
23:24
Speaker 2: seen Kick-Ass, so.
23:25
Speaker 5: Is there any other cast-y news on this one?
23:28
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it's the guy who's kind of her
23:31
Speaker 2: caretaker is recognizable, but not really a big name. The boy,
23:34
Speaker 2: I think, is kind of a new actor. So, I mean,
23:36
Speaker 2: there's not really a whole lot of names otherwise, but,
23:38
Speaker 2: I mean, for me, that one kind of won me over.
23:40
Speaker 2: I was like, damn it. I hope they don't fuck
23:42
Speaker 2: up the story, because now I'm going to have to
23:44
Speaker 2: go see it.
23:45
Speaker 6: But.
23:46
Speaker 2: I don't know. We'll have to see what they do
23:47
Speaker 2: with it. Okay, moving on to real stories. Do we
23:51
Speaker 2: have real stories? Well, not really, but as much as
23:54
Speaker 2: we ever do. Are we on MTV? Okay, so J.J.
24:02
Speaker 2: Abrams is, of course, working on his next big post-loss project,
24:06
Speaker 2: and for quite a while he was considering adapting Stephen
24:09
Speaker 2: King's The Dark Tower series of seven novels. But obviously,
24:13
Speaker 2: it became too complicated along the way because he eventually
24:16
Speaker 2: gave up on the project. So now, this week, we
24:19
Speaker 2: found out that Wade Wade for Ron Howard, who is
24:22
Speaker 2: now in discussions with Universal Pictures to adapt King's big
24:25
Speaker 2: fantasy opus of seven freaking books.
24:27
Speaker 5: But why? Does anybody really care? Has anybody cared about
24:31
Speaker 5: a Stephen King movie in how long?
24:33
Speaker 2: They like to complain about them when they make really
24:36
Speaker 2: bad ones.
24:37
Speaker 5: When's the last really good Stephen King movie that came out,
24:40
Speaker 5: other than The Mist?
24:41
Speaker 2: The Mist was awesome.
24:43
Speaker 5: Other than that, nobody cares about Stephen King stuff.
24:46
Speaker 2: He's still a name, though.
24:47
Speaker 4: I think they've just.
24:48
Speaker 6: Run out of ideas. They've remade every classic horror movie
24:52
Speaker 6: there is. They're just going to have to start making
24:54
Speaker 6: Stephen King movies again. I guess.
24:56
Speaker 5: Let's find one that has seven books in it.
25:00
Speaker 2: That was a very... late 80s, early 90s thing. Like,
25:03
Speaker 2: every two weeks a new Stephen King something would come out.
25:06
Speaker 4: Yeah.
25:07
Speaker 5: And only a handful of them were watchable.
25:09
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, the early ones. And it was the ones
25:11
Speaker 2: when they had good directors. And you'd go back and look,
25:13
Speaker 2: and they brought in real names on a lot of
25:15
Speaker 2: these projects. And then you get to, like, the mid-90s,
25:18
Speaker 2: and they start just doing crappy straight-to-DVD. Straight-to, yeah, TV stuff.
25:23
Speaker 4: Sometimes they come back again and again and again.
25:25
Speaker 5: The first one kicked ass.
25:26
Speaker 4: The first one was okay, but.
25:28
Speaker 6: I mean, if you think about it, some of... The
25:30
Speaker 6: early Stephen King adaptations were some of the best horror
25:34
Speaker 6: movies ever made. The Shining and Carrie.
25:37
Speaker 3: The Shining was good. Carrie was good. Christine.
25:40
Speaker 5: Stand By Me is still one of my favorites. It
25:42
Speaker 5: stands out as not being... It doesn't seem like a
25:45
Speaker 5: Stephen King. Aside from there being a dead body at
25:47
Speaker 5: the end, it doesn't really come across as a Stephen King,
25:50
Speaker 5: which is why it's one of my favorites.
25:51
Speaker 2: Look at all those we mentioned. Kubrick, John Carpenter, Rob Reiner.
25:56
Speaker 2: These were all directors at the top of their game
25:58
Speaker 2: at that point.
25:59
Speaker 1: So, I mean, that.
26:00
Speaker 2: I think is the big difference is when they gave
26:01
Speaker 2: it to people who were just there for a job,
26:04
Speaker 2: they were just, you know, Hey, let's make a buck.
26:05
Speaker 2: Stephen King's name will sell.
26:06
Speaker 5: Yeah.
26:07
Speaker 2: You get to the Langdell years.
26:08
Speaker 3: You're fucked.
26:09
Speaker 12: So go on now that had, what's his name?
26:12
Speaker 4: No, no, no, no.
26:15
Speaker 3: The other guy, uh, uh, God, I can't think of
26:18
Speaker 3: his name. He was in Quantum Leap.
26:21
Speaker 5: Scott Bakula?
26:21
Speaker 2: Scott Bakula. No, not him.
26:25
Speaker 4: He was also in.
26:27
Speaker 5: Shit, what is it?
26:27
Speaker 2: Dean Stockwell.
26:28
Speaker 4: Dean Stockwell, yeah. He played the crazy guy.
26:34
Speaker 2: Al says this movie's going to suck.
26:37
Speaker 3: What the hell was that other movie he was in?
26:39
Speaker 5: Was it Blue something another?
26:41
Speaker 3: Sure.
26:42
Speaker 2: Blue Velvet?
26:43
Speaker 3: Blue Velvet, yeah.
26:44
Speaker 2: He's phenomenal in Blue Velvet. He's fucked up in Blue Velvet.
26:47
Speaker 2: He is awesome in Blue Velvet. Blue Velvet.
26:49
Speaker 4: I don't even remember.
26:51
Speaker 6: Oh, yeah.
26:51
Speaker 4: He's not Dean's dog. It's been a long time since
26:53
Speaker 4: I've seen Blue Velvet. Oh, yeah.
26:54
Speaker 2: We need to add that to the list.
26:56
Speaker 4: Yeah, we do.
26:58
Speaker 5: Really, does anybody care about Stephen King enough to... want
27:02
Speaker 5: to see this much of a project involving him.
27:08
Speaker 2: I think he's still got such name recognition. His books
27:10
Speaker 2: still sell. He's still pretty popular in the author world.
27:15
Speaker 2: It's just he kind of lost that edge that he
27:17
Speaker 2: used to have on the transferring stuff over to film.
27:20
Speaker 5: I'm still mad at him for that last movie I
27:21
Speaker 5: watched of his, the one with John Cusack and Samuel L. Jackson.
27:26
Speaker 2: Fuck you, Stephen King, for that movie.
27:27
Speaker 6: What was that?
27:28
Speaker 5: I was mad.
27:28
Speaker 2: 1408? Yeah, that was.
27:30
Speaker 6: A terrible movie.
27:31
Speaker 4: That was such a letdown.
27:33
Speaker 6: I didn't realize it was Stephen King.
27:35
Speaker 2: To me, it feels like it, because it starts off
27:38
Speaker 2: with a good idea, and then it just all goes
27:39
Speaker 2: to hell. So a lot of the Stephen King adaptions
27:43
Speaker 2: end up doing that.
27:44
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was kind of a lame movie, wasn't it?
27:46
Speaker 5: He's putting it mildly and nicely.
27:48
Speaker 2: There's a lot more in that than I realize. Like,
27:51
Speaker 2: if you go back, there's all kinds of weird stuff
27:53
Speaker 2: sort of hidden in that, to me, I'm surprised. Like,
27:56
Speaker 2: to watch it, you're just kind of like, eh, they
27:58
Speaker 2: just kind of knocked this thing out in a weekend, but...
28:00
Speaker 2: if you go back and like, there's all this weird
28:02
Speaker 2: stuff that actually factors into the number 1408. Like it's
28:06
Speaker 2: got that number worked in mathematically and they've got it on.
28:10
Speaker 5: That's what I'm saying. It's like they, but I'm like,
28:12
Speaker 5: who put that much time into this movie?
28:13
Speaker 2: Because it goes, there are 14 glasses.
28:17
Speaker 6: Yeah. Yeah.
28:18
Speaker 3: Whatever.
28:19
Speaker 5: It's like all that kind of stuff. It's like, and
28:20
Speaker 5: that's cool.
28:21
Speaker 2: I like when they do that in movies, but why
28:23
Speaker 2: do it in a movie that falls apart halfway through,
28:25
Speaker 2: you know.
28:25
Speaker 6: Didn't wasn't Stephen King responsible for secret window. I really
28:29
Speaker 6: liked that one.
28:30
Speaker 5: I think it was this.
28:31
Speaker 2: I don't know.
28:33
Speaker 5: I don't think.
28:34
Speaker 2: Something to do with it.
28:35
Speaker 5: I'm pretty sure it could be.
28:36
Speaker 4: Look it up.
28:36
Speaker 5: The Johnny Depp movie, Secret Window?
28:38
Speaker 6: Yeah.
28:39
Speaker 3: I didn't like that movie either.
28:40
Speaker 6: I liked that one a lot.
28:42
Speaker 3: It even had Johnny Depp in it.
28:43
Speaker 6: It was a psychological thriller. I'm sure.
28:45
Speaker 3: But I already knew what was going on. So it sucked.
28:49
Speaker 5: It wanted to be a Stephen King book.
28:51
Speaker 2: Yeah, it definitely seemed like it wanted to be.
28:52
Speaker 3: Yeah.
28:54
Speaker 2: Novel by Stephen King. Yeah.
28:56
Speaker 4: Wow.
28:56
Speaker 6: Yeah, I liked that one. I really think, I mean...
29:00
Speaker 6: People might not care, but if you... do you have
29:02
Speaker 6: the right director and the right actors pulling it together?
29:05
Speaker 6: I think it could be, I mean, fuck, what else.
29:08
Speaker 2: Are we doing nowadays with horror movies? That's always the case.
29:11
Speaker 2: But again, we're going back to at least who at
29:14
Speaker 2: one time was a really good director, Ron Howard.
29:16
Speaker 1: Yeah.
29:16
Speaker 2: Granted, you look at some of his more recent stuff
29:18
Speaker 2: and it makes me want to stab myself in the eye, Grinch. But, but,
29:24
Speaker 2: I mean, at one time he was an awesome director. So,
29:26
Speaker 2: I mean, he's, he's actually not even looking at it
29:28
Speaker 2: to make a film. He's envisioned it as a trilogy. Oh, Which,
29:32
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, they're running out of trilogies.
29:34
Speaker 5: I'm not familiar enough with the story as it is,
29:36
Speaker 5: so I don't know what it would consist of.
29:39
Speaker 6: I tried to read the books when I was like
29:41
Speaker 6: 12 or 13 and I just lost interest.
29:44
Speaker 5: I mean, is there a basic premise for it or
29:46
Speaker 5: is there a.
29:47
Speaker 6: It has a lot to do with time travel and stuff,
29:49
Speaker 6: doesn't it?
29:50
Speaker 2: It's such a huge thing. I mean, it's... Let's see.
29:53
Speaker 2: They're saying it follows the adventures of the last remaining
29:55
Speaker 2: member of an order of gunslingers in an alternate reality
29:58
Speaker 2: that combines magic and elements of the Old West. And
30:02
Speaker 2: it is... I think, Roger, you mentioned this. It crosses
30:04
Speaker 2: over into all these other ones. It, like, crosses into, like,
30:08
Speaker 2: The Stand, Insomnia, Eyes of the Dragon. So, like, all
30:11
Speaker 2: these other... sort of things are tied into the dark
30:14
Speaker 2: tower somehow which.
30:16
Speaker 4: Is cool i thought that was a cool that's a
30:17
Speaker 4: cool idea.
30:18
Speaker 6: You said the guy who did lost picked it up.
30:21
Speaker 2: And jj abrams was for a long time supposedly working
30:25
Speaker 2: on a version of it and has now just moved
30:27
Speaker 2: on to other stuff.
30:28
Speaker 6: Because he thought it was too confusing probably the guy
30:30
Speaker 6: from lost what does that tell.
30:31
Speaker 3: You Oh, Lord.
30:37
Speaker 2: So, yeah, they're envisioning it as a film trilogy because,
30:41
Speaker 2: you know, the Tolkien stuff ran out.
30:43
Speaker 7: Yeah.
30:43
Speaker 2: The Hobbit still weighs off, so they've got to find
30:45
Speaker 2: new trilogies to do. And then later, a television series.
30:49
Speaker 2: So there's obviously a lot of material to fight your
30:52
Speaker 2: way through in this story.
30:53
Speaker 5: What's a seven-book series?
30:55
Speaker 2: Seriously.
30:57
Speaker 5: I don't see that one going over well.
30:58
Speaker 6: I don't know.
30:59
Speaker 2: Again, I liked some of the elements I knew of
31:02
Speaker 2: that story, and then Ron Howard used to be a
31:04
Speaker 2: good director, so if they can pull all that shit
31:06
Speaker 2: together right, it could be kind of cool, but it's
31:09
Speaker 2: also an uphill battle from what it sounds like.
31:11
Speaker 5: Is he going to put his daughter in it? Because
31:13
Speaker 5: then Roger might not want to.
31:14
Speaker 2: Oh, that's true. We were complaining about Bryce earlier.
31:17
Speaker 4: Bryce.
31:18
Speaker 6: Bryce.
31:18
Speaker 5: It's a dumb name.
31:21
Speaker 6: I think it's a fine name for boys.
31:23
Speaker 4: I wanted it for a girl, though. All right.
31:28
Speaker 2: This week, director Ridley Scott did the press rounds in
31:31
Speaker 2: advance of the May 12th release of Robin Hood. This
31:36
Speaker 2: was the... Don't you want to see Gladiator in the woods?
31:41
Speaker 5: Not in tights, not anymore.
31:43
Speaker 2: You just don't like him because he got old and fat, too.
31:48
Speaker 6: I just don't like Russell Crowe at all. He reminds
31:50
Speaker 6: me of this crazy guy that walks up and down
31:52
Speaker 6: the street by where I work, and he'll come in
31:54
Speaker 6: and he'll corner me and be like, you know what, Marlena?
31:58
Speaker 6: You know politicians? And he just has this weird joke
32:00
Speaker 6: that's not a joke, it's just him rambling. in this
32:03
Speaker 6: weird schizophrenic.
32:06
Speaker 4: Mania creepy ass cloud.
32:10
Speaker 6: I'm like good good one michael i love i loved
32:15
Speaker 6: russell crowe when gladiator came out i don't do it
32:17
Speaker 6: i ain't gonna lie.
32:18
Speaker 2: I went to a big face i remember you were
32:20
Speaker 2: out of control i was i.
32:21
Speaker 5: Got a cd where he's rapping.
32:24
Speaker 2: Oh i remember You, if I remember, special ordered the
32:28
Speaker 2: shirt from his band from Australia.
32:31
Speaker 5: Which I still have.
32:32
Speaker 2: Which I would hope you still have, because that thing
32:33
Speaker 2: cost a fortune.
32:34
Speaker 4: I got it.
32:35
Speaker 5: But yeah, I love me some Russell Crowe, but now
32:37
Speaker 5: he just seems like such a douche.
32:39
Speaker 4: And you just.
32:40
Speaker 5: That thing on his head seems to have gotten bigger.
32:43
Speaker 5: That weird spot, that weird lump.
32:47
Speaker 2: Is he also turning into Alan Rickman?
32:49
Speaker 1: No.
32:49
Speaker 2: Because if so, we've already seen him in Robin Hood,
32:51
Speaker 2: so maybe it's coming full circle.
32:53
Speaker 5: Yeah, I just got burned out. I still love Russell
32:55
Speaker 5: Crowe in Gladiator.
32:57
Speaker 2: Gladiator is a good movie.
32:59
Speaker 3: Why does he need to do Robin Hood again?
33:01
Speaker 5: Why does anybody need to do Robin Hood?
33:04
Speaker 2: It's been 10 years. Every 10 years we have to
33:05
Speaker 2: redo all these same movies.
33:07
Speaker 10: Is that so kids will know who the hell Robin
33:09
Speaker 10: Hood is because they're not smart enough to pick up
33:11
Speaker 10: a book and read?
33:12
Speaker 4: You gotta spoon feed it to them in a movie?
33:15
Speaker 2: If it's the kids at this table.
33:17
Speaker 3: Here's Robin Hood, little Johnny. Now watch it and learn.
33:20
Speaker 2: That's how I learned everything.
33:23
Speaker 4: Seriously?
33:25
Speaker 2: So what's funny is this isn't even about Robin Hood.
33:28
Speaker 2: So while they were talking about Robin Hood, they were
33:31
Speaker 2: using that opportunity to grill Ridley Scott for his plans
33:34
Speaker 2: on Alien.
33:35
Speaker 11: Oh boy.
33:36
Speaker 2: So the movie that launched his career, now he's gone
33:40
Speaker 2: on to explain what he has in store for us
33:42
Speaker 2: in the future. It's not just for a single Alien prequel,
33:46
Speaker 2: but actually two prequels. Because, God forbid, you do one
33:50
Speaker 2: movie anymore. You've got to make it a... I'm surprised
33:53
Speaker 2: it's not a full trilogy.
33:54
Speaker 6: Pre-prequel?
33:55
Speaker 2: He's pre-prequeling. So, yeah, it would actually make the original
33:58
Speaker 2: Alien the third movie in the original trilogy, I guess,
34:02
Speaker 2: or whatever.
34:03
Speaker 6: I don't know.
34:03
Speaker 2: This is becoming confusing, too.
34:05
Speaker 6: J.J.
34:05
Speaker 2: Abrams is going to step in. So.
34:08
Speaker 10: You've got Alien, and you've got Aliens.
34:11
Speaker 2: How do you go before Alien?
34:12
Speaker 4: Yeah.
34:14
Speaker 2: It's just and then by the second one it's ow
34:18
Speaker 2: they just focus on a guy named ow So the
34:24
Speaker 2: first Alien prequel will, of course, be in 3D, which
34:27
Speaker 2: that's a quote Ridley Scott said, of course it will
34:30
Speaker 2: be in 3D.
34:31
Speaker 5: Can it just be called Facehugger?
34:33
Speaker 2: I would go see that.
34:34
Speaker 4: That'd be great.
34:35
Speaker 2: Awesome.
34:36
Speaker 10: It's a movie about a cuddly little facehugger.
34:41
Speaker 6: Like the movie that we saw for Splice.
34:43
Speaker 2: Yeah, Splice looks like a very Alien ripoff, and then
34:46
Speaker 2: it becomes more of a species ripoff.
34:48
Speaker 6: Yeah.
34:48
Speaker 3: It does.
34:49
Speaker 2: But I'm still on board because it's got, what's her face?
34:51
Speaker 5: Sarah Pauly.
34:52
Speaker 2: Sarah Pauly's fucking awesome.
34:53
Speaker 6: And Adrian Brody.
34:54
Speaker 5: And his nose.
34:55
Speaker 2: See, I'll trade you. You can have Adrian Brody. I'll
34:56
Speaker 2: take Sarah Pauly. We're all good.
34:58
Speaker 5: Adrian Brody was in half the damn trailer.
35:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was. He's a popular dude. Or he's just poor.
35:03
Speaker 5: He's got Predators.
35:05
Speaker 2: Yeah, Predators was right before that.
35:07
Speaker 4: I got there late.
35:09
Speaker 5: I know, I heard you coming in. I was like, oh,
35:10
Speaker 5: we're in this thing.
35:12
Speaker 6: Did you hear my keys?
35:12
Speaker 5: Yes.
35:13
Speaker 2: Your dog tags. You're going to get shot because of
35:16
Speaker 2: the dog tags.
35:18
Speaker 5: You could never be a ninja.
35:21
Speaker 4: That's true.
35:22
Speaker 2: You were like 40 yards away. She was like, not
35:25
Speaker 2: my answer.
35:27
Speaker 6: Maybe Misty's the ninja.
35:28
Speaker 2: Oh, Lord. So, aside from being in 3D, the first
35:36
Speaker 2: prequel in this little run here will be set in
35:38
Speaker 2: the year 2085, which is 30 years before the events
35:41
Speaker 2: of Alien. The focus of the prequel may be, well,
35:45
Speaker 2: to me it isn't a surprise, because this is the
35:47
Speaker 2: only thing we've talked about since they started talking about this.
35:49
Speaker 2: It's going to be about the space jockey.
35:51
Speaker 11: Duh.
35:52
Speaker 2: Well, you know, that's the only thing geeks have been
35:53
Speaker 2: talking about since they brought up this idea that everybody's against,
35:56
Speaker 2: but they're like, well, if you're going to do it,
35:58
Speaker 2: You've got the setup. I mean, there's this huge thing
36:00
Speaker 2: sitting there in the first movie, and they don't go
36:02
Speaker 2: into it at all. So if you're going to do
36:05
Speaker 2: some sort of backstory, so that is what it's supposed
36:07
Speaker 2: to be about. We get this, you know, if you've
36:09
Speaker 2: seen Alien, I'm sure everybody knows what the space jockey is.
36:12
Speaker 2: But for the two people that don't, you get the ship,
36:14
Speaker 2: and there's that giant skeleton, more or less, in the
36:18
Speaker 2: pilot seat that brought the ship there and then unleashed
36:21
Speaker 2: the aliens onto this planet. And we're assuming tried to
36:24
Speaker 2: get them the hell away from wherever they were before this.
36:27
Speaker 1: So.
36:28
Speaker 2: There's obviously a big story there that was meant to
36:30
Speaker 2: be there. Maybe it wasn't meant to be elaborated on
36:33
Speaker 2: is what I'm wondering. I always liked that it was
36:35
Speaker 2: kind of this cool thing and it was just there.
36:38
Speaker 2: It was sort of a mysterious backstory. And once again,
36:41
Speaker 2: like we like to do, we have to pin everything
36:43
Speaker 2: down and elaborate so much on our villains, even if
36:46
Speaker 2: it's a whole species of villains, that we kind of
36:49
Speaker 2: take all the life out of it.
36:50
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think Hollywood has just become obsessed with giving
36:55
Speaker 6: a backstory to villains and making them plus I think
36:59
Speaker 6: we already had this conversation but they can't just leave
37:01
Speaker 6: it alone like there's wicked and then there's.
37:04
Speaker 5: They have to have motivation why they are the way
37:07
Speaker 5: they are why are they so evil because you can't
37:09
Speaker 5: just be inherently bad you have to have somebody kicked
37:11
Speaker 5: your puppy when you were a kid and not.
37:13
Speaker 10: Be evil damn it and then you can have the
37:15
Speaker 10: back story on the guy who kicked your.
37:17
Speaker 5: Puppy and the back story of the puppy and the
37:20
Speaker 5: dogs who had the puppy the whole line of breeders.
37:25
Speaker 3: This is what it's going to be for more movies.
37:27
Speaker 6: Yeah I really think it's just because I've run out
37:30
Speaker 6: of ideas.
37:31
Speaker 2: Well, we know that. But yeah, so Ridley is not
37:35
Speaker 2: expecting Sigourney Weaver to be involved, which would be a
37:38
Speaker 2: surprise because she's in every other damn one. Even when
37:40
Speaker 2: they kill her off, she's still in them.
37:43
Speaker 3: What about Winona Ryder? Will she be in it?
37:44
Speaker 2: I hope so. She could be. She doesn't have to
37:47
Speaker 2: worry about not being alive yet. Because that's what they're saying.
37:50
Speaker 2: You know, Sigourney shouldn't be in this one because it's
37:52
Speaker 2: set before her character is born. So it would be
37:55
Speaker 2: kind of difficult. But they are saying the lead character
37:58
Speaker 2: will be female. So can't argue with that. He does
38:01
Speaker 2: put some kick-ass females in there.
38:03
Speaker 5: Are there any more birds?
38:07
Speaker 2: Yep. So as I was sort of bitching about earlier
38:10
Speaker 2: about the English language remakes, we go through these little
38:13
Speaker 2: waves of us not being able to handle watching a
38:16
Speaker 2: foreign movie. So we have to remake them. And we
38:18
Speaker 2: had the big run in the early part of this
38:20
Speaker 2: past decade of the Asian horror remakes, starting with the
38:23
Speaker 2: 2002 release of The Ring with Naomi Watts.
38:27
Speaker 5: Which is still the best remake that I've seen so far.
38:29
Speaker 2: It's actually good. I was surprised, even at the time,
38:32
Speaker 2: how well they kind of put that together. But they
38:35
Speaker 2: followed it up in 2005 with The Ring 2, and
38:37
Speaker 2: the box office success was, eh, you know. It did okay.
38:42
Speaker 2: Fans didn't really care. Critics really didn't like it. But
38:45
Speaker 2: it's a sequel. What do you want?
38:46
Speaker 9: So.
38:47
Speaker 2: The Ring and Ring 2 were, you know, I guess
38:49
Speaker 2: we all know about a spooky VHS tape. Which to me,
38:52
Speaker 2: I'm like, what the hell's a VHS tape?
38:54
Speaker 5: They have a spooky DVD in it.
38:55
Speaker 2: Yeah, every kid in America just went, what is that
38:58
Speaker 2: black box she's holding? And why is she shoving it
39:00
Speaker 2: in that other black box? So, yeah, I guess, you know,
39:04
Speaker 2: it's already going to confuse the kids if we try
39:05
Speaker 2: to roll it out now. So now Paramount has the
39:08
Speaker 2: rights to the property of the Ring 2. And I
39:13
Speaker 2: guess they noticed that they hadn't made the third one
39:15
Speaker 2: in the trilogy, because you've got to have a trilogy.
39:18
Speaker 5: Are they going to do the original trilogy? Are they
39:20
Speaker 5: going to do Ring O?
39:22
Speaker 2: Well, no. It doesn't matter. All that involves story and plot.
39:26
Speaker 2: They don't care about that. What they want is Ring 3D.
39:29
Speaker 5: Oh.
39:30
Speaker 3: No you knew it was.
39:31
Speaker 4: Coming you knew it was coming yes.
39:36
Speaker 2: And uh to well to go with sort of what
39:39
Speaker 2: you were asking it probably won't be good because they're
39:41
Speaker 2: saying they're thinking naomi watts probably won't be involved because
39:45
Speaker 2: and this is what scares me the most out of
39:46
Speaker 2: the whole little rundown here is they're fashioning the third
39:49
Speaker 2: movie to be more teen-centric. That's frightening.
39:52
Speaker 4: Is that like teen-tastic?
39:54
Speaker 2: I guess.
39:55
Speaker 6: When is California just going to fall into the ocean
39:58
Speaker 6: so this will be over?
39:59
Speaker 5: They find a new center to do it.
40:01
Speaker 2: As soon as Lex nukes the... All you've.
40:04
Speaker 5: Got to get a hold of is a couple of
40:05
Speaker 5: nuclear warheads. Fire them off at California.
40:08
Speaker 6: Needed to happen.
40:10
Speaker 3: Nuclear, if you're doing this.
40:12
Speaker 4: Nuclear.
40:13
Speaker 5: See, I would have tolerated the next Ring movie if
40:15
Speaker 5: they'd done the original and gone back and done the prequel.
40:18
Speaker 6: Yeah.
40:18
Speaker 5: Ring O was actually a really sad movie because it
40:21
Speaker 5: went back to the little girl and her life before
40:23
Speaker 5: she ended up in a well. Yeah, I wouldn't ruin
40:26
Speaker 5: it for anybody out there.
40:27
Speaker 2: That actually fits with what they usually do. It's weird.
40:30
Speaker 2: I mean, that's what we were just saying. They've got
40:31
Speaker 2: to go with the villain. They've got to do the backstories.
40:33
Speaker 2: I mean, that might actually fit with how Hollywood operates.
40:36
Speaker 2: So why they're not doing that.
40:38
Speaker 5: Because it's 3D and you can't have Ringo in 3D.
40:41
Speaker 3: You don't want depressing in 3D.
40:43
Speaker 2: As good as... ring three ring.
40:47
Speaker 5: 3d she can climb out of the tv as you
40:49
Speaker 5: in 3d that would be really.
40:51
Speaker 2: Creepy yeah the first time i saw that was fucking
40:54
Speaker 2: frightening i didn't expect that.
40:57
Speaker 5: I did not i saw the japanese version before i
40:59
Speaker 5: remember doing the remake and i saw that and i
41:01
Speaker 5: was like holy shit.
41:03
Speaker 2: I watched that bootleg too i was like holy shit Oh,
41:07
Speaker 2: that was frightening. That was scary to watch. And I'm
41:10
Speaker 2: assuming this is going to be crap because, again, it's
41:12
Speaker 2: catering to, and that's what they're doing. It's like that's
41:15
Speaker 2: the reason they're not going to go with the villain
41:16
Speaker 2: story is they're going the other way Hollywood goes with
41:18
Speaker 2: horror movies is making it teens. It's got to be
41:21
Speaker 2: around a group of teens, and it's got to be
41:23
Speaker 2: crappy more than likely.
41:25
Speaker 6: When is Hollywood going to pick up the Tomy movies?
41:27
Speaker 6: That would be really weird.
41:29
Speaker 3: The witch movies?
41:30
Speaker 2: You saw that, didn't you, Roger?
41:31
Speaker 11: What's up?
41:32
Speaker 2: Didn't you see Tomy?
41:33
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's awesome. Tomie is like, there's I think six
41:38
Speaker 4: of them now. The one that I have is like
41:40
Speaker 4: the first, the second, the third, and it's like a
41:43
Speaker 4: made-for-TV where there are like three different short stories about
41:46
Speaker 4: Tomie on it. And I'm in love with them. I like,
41:50
Speaker 4: of course, the first one's the best. Second one's okay.
41:53
Speaker 4: Third one, it just starts to get kind of cheesy.
41:55
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
41:57
Speaker 5: So why haven't they got around to that one yet?
41:58
Speaker 5: They got around to everything else.
42:00
Speaker 2: It's pretty twisted, though. I mean, there's so many of them.
42:03
Speaker 2: I don't know. Americans are so straight-laced in the way
42:06
Speaker 2: they look at their stuff. To me, what little I
42:08
Speaker 2: know of, it sounds like a hard sell to... an
42:11
Speaker 2: american guy sitting behind a desk.
42:12
Speaker 4: Yeah well the thing that i really liked about it
42:15
Speaker 4: is it's it's something you don't really think about initially
42:18
Speaker 4: but you know this tomie creature whatever is basically reborn
42:24
Speaker 4: uh from you know just a piece of itself whether
42:26
Speaker 4: you kill it or chop it up or whatever and
42:29
Speaker 4: but it's perpetually a 17 year old girl so the
42:33
Speaker 4: problems inherent with that is She wants to be it
42:37
Speaker 4: wants to be loved. It wants to, you know, and
42:39
Speaker 4: it's jealous of the human race. But in that comes out,
42:42
Speaker 4: you know, she hates the human race or whatnot, but
42:45
Speaker 4: is always kind of still in a way like looking
42:47
Speaker 4: for love. And I found myself kind of almost like
42:49
Speaker 4: feeling bad for Tomie, you know, this creature or whatever
42:53
Speaker 4: it towards the end, because I'm like, that would kind
42:55
Speaker 4: of suck. not to be able to die and throughout
42:58
Speaker 4: all of eternity never being able to have a friend.
43:02
Speaker 2: This is why vampires are so emo yeah.
43:05
Speaker 5: Yeah exactly fucking sparkly emo vampire.
43:08
Speaker 4: That's probably like werewolf huh cause werewolf you know you
43:10
Speaker 4: just you live hard you rock hard you stink you
43:13
Speaker 4: smell you're hairy and you die Yes.
43:16
Speaker 5: Not according to the werewolf movie I watched yesterday. According
43:19
Speaker 5: to that, werewolves never age. Yeah, I didn't like that.
43:22
Speaker 4: I was pissed.
43:23
Speaker 5: Never cry, werewolf. Fucking get it right. Werewolves age. Fuckers.
43:28
Speaker 4: Boo.
43:29
Speaker 5: I was mad.
43:31
Speaker 3: Yeah.
43:31
Speaker 6: Yeah.
43:32
Speaker 2: So, yeah, you might be right, Marlena, that they may
43:35
Speaker 2: very well be out of ideas for movies because I
43:37
Speaker 2: never thought they would come to the point where they
43:39
Speaker 2: would need to do A Hatfields and McCoy movie.
43:43
Speaker 6: Are you kidding me?
43:44
Speaker 3: What?
43:45
Speaker 4: Is it going to be starked?
43:47
Speaker 2: They've got real names, too. Well, first of all, all
43:50
Speaker 2: I remember about it is the old Warner Brothers cartoons
43:53
Speaker 2: where all the guys with the long beards used to
43:54
Speaker 2: just hit each other with shit. That, in my mind,
43:57
Speaker 2: is all it'll ever be.
43:58
Speaker 5: At least that's still a step above doing movies based
44:00
Speaker 5: on board games.
44:01
Speaker 2: That's true. Which, live in fear, there's more bad stuff coming.
44:05
Speaker 2: Isn't he in everything?
44:06
Speaker 3: Is there no Stratego?
44:08
Speaker 5: Him and Jesse Edinburgh?
44:10
Speaker 6: Eisenberg?
44:11
Speaker 5: Whatever the hell.
44:12
Speaker 6: His name is.
44:12
Speaker 4: Don't wake Daddy.
44:13
Speaker 6: I feel like the Jesse guy better. Yeah, he's more attractive,
44:16
Speaker 6: but I mean, I kind of have deep love for
44:19
Speaker 6: Michael Cera because of Arrested Development.
44:21
Speaker 2: George Michael was cool, and since then he's gone kind
44:24
Speaker 2: of downhill.
44:25
Speaker 6: I really liked Youth and Revolt.
44:28
Speaker 2: I never read.
44:29
Speaker 6: The book, so I think that's why I was able
44:31
Speaker 6: to like it.
44:33
Speaker 5: I'm still mad at him for Superbad, but that's just me. Why?
44:35
Speaker 4: Superbad was so funny. It was not.
44:37
Speaker 6: I loved Superbad.
44:38
Speaker 5: We had to turn it off after like ten minutes,
44:39
Speaker 5: and I was worried I'd hit something. I thought it
44:41
Speaker 5: was awesome.
44:42
Speaker 3: I was thoroughly annoyed at it.
44:45
Speaker 5: All right, back to the buzz.
44:47
Speaker 2: It was, yeah, just the fact that they've gotten to
44:50
Speaker 2: the point of Hatfields and McCoys. It's funny in and
44:52
Speaker 2: of itself. But then Robert Duvall is going to be
44:55
Speaker 2: in it. He was doing press for a new movie,
44:58
Speaker 2: and he started talking about who they're trying to get
44:59
Speaker 2: co-starring with him in the Hatfields and the McCoys.
45:02
Speaker 5: Is he hard up for cash?
45:04
Speaker 2: Isn't everybody these days?
45:05
Speaker 7: Yeah, really.
45:06
Speaker 5: Still.
45:07
Speaker 2: So, the movie's director, Scott Cooper, who just did Crazy Heart,
45:11
Speaker 2: once again, they're bringing in Oscar caliber names here, has
45:14
Speaker 2: reportedly met with Brad Pitt about starring in the movie.
45:18
Speaker 6: Yay, I love redneck Brad Pitt. He's my favorite.
45:21
Speaker 2: Is he going to be like California Brad Pitt? Yeah,
45:23
Speaker 2: California Brad Pitt. That's what I'm picturing, the big nappy
45:25
Speaker 2: beard and the crazy hair.
45:26
Speaker 4: He was awesome in California. He's got a chair.
45:32
Speaker 2: He is awesome in that. So, yeah, T-Bone Burnett, who
45:36
Speaker 2: is the composer of Crazy Heart, will also be composing
45:38
Speaker 2: the score for the Hatfields and the McCoys. And, yeah,
45:42
Speaker 2: the only reason I really wanted to talk about this
45:44
Speaker 2: is I want to go and make a prediction.
45:45
Speaker 4: Okay.
45:46
Speaker 2: Because I want to know if they're going to change
45:49
Speaker 2: it so that it fits this. Because it's really just
45:51
Speaker 2: about this feud between two families. And about the only
45:53
Speaker 2: thing they had to fight about is half of them
45:55
Speaker 2: fought for the Union side, half of them fought for the,
45:58
Speaker 2: you know, rebels. Whatever, that's half the country at that point.
46:01
Speaker 2: No big deal.
46:01
Speaker 3: I thought the whole argument.
46:03
Speaker 2: Started over chickens.
46:06
Speaker 3: Or cows.
46:07
Speaker 4: See?
46:07
Speaker 2: Once again, these are all ridiculous things that they probably
46:10
Speaker 2: did start over. What I'm waiting for is, are they
46:13
Speaker 2: going to make it Romeo and Juliet? Are they going
46:15
Speaker 2: to go West Side Story?
46:16
Speaker 5: You know they're going to.
46:17
Speaker 2: They're going to have to do it. To me, it's
46:20
Speaker 2: like if I were writing the script, shit, that's what
46:21
Speaker 2: I would do. It adds a whole other level to
46:23
Speaker 2: the whole drama of it.
46:24
Speaker 6: Every movie pretty much has a romantic subplot.
46:27
Speaker 5: Yeah.
46:27
Speaker 4: Every movie.
46:28
Speaker 2: Especially when you've got two sides that can't get along. Well,
46:31
Speaker 2: let's take the youth of each and make them fall
46:33
Speaker 2: in love. Yeah, so.
46:35
Speaker 6: Curious as to how they're going to glamorize some, like,
46:39
Speaker 6: backwoods hillbillies fighting over God knows what. I think that's
46:42
Speaker 6: the point of they don't remember what they're fighting about.
46:45
Speaker 6: That's why it's so funny.
46:47
Speaker 2: It goes on for generations and nobody knows why.
46:49
Speaker 10: Well, they quit fighting for a small period of time,
46:52
Speaker 10: what I read, and then they just started up again.
46:55
Speaker 6: Oh, they still exist?
46:57
Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
46:57
Speaker 3: That's still going on.
46:58
Speaker 2: God help us.
47:00
Speaker 4: But, I mean.
47:01
Speaker 6: It seems like such a humorous situation. I'm kind of
47:04
Speaker 6: curious as to what angle they're going to work with
47:06
Speaker 6: this movie, I guess.
47:06
Speaker 2: Is it going to be comedy?
47:08
Speaker 6: Is it going to be serious?
47:09
Speaker 2: No, I'm sure they'll go serious. I mean, they've got
47:11
Speaker 2: Robert Duvall and Brad Pitt. I mean, they're probably going
47:14
Speaker 2: serious and Oscar-style, but I mean... Again, I think that's
47:17
Speaker 2: the only way they could get something out of it
47:19
Speaker 2: to really make a real story. Because other than that,
47:21
Speaker 2: they're just going to be a lot of fighting. But
47:23
Speaker 2: the only thing that would give it some sort of
47:25
Speaker 2: heart was if they have this little sappy romance in
47:27
Speaker 2: the middle of it where they're torn by the two
47:29
Speaker 2: families and they're on opposite sides and they're sneaking around. Yeah,
47:33
Speaker 2: it's totally going to be a West Side Story thing.
47:35
Speaker 2: That's my prediction.
47:36
Speaker 4: I could be wrong.
47:37
Speaker 5: Is it going to be singing a whole lot?
47:38
Speaker 2: Let's hope so. That'd be pretty awesome. Brad Pitt knocking
47:41
Speaker 2: it out.
47:42
Speaker 11: No.
47:44
Speaker 2: So, yeah, I don't know. That was half my reasoning.
47:47
Speaker 2: And if they're not going to go that way, but
47:49
Speaker 2: they're thinking about it, if, you know, producers are listening,
47:51
Speaker 2: if you want me to work on a treatment of
47:52
Speaker 2: the script, hey, send it over. I'll take the check.
47:55
Speaker 2: I'm fine with that.
47:55
Speaker 3: That won't happen. They'll steal your idea.
47:58
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. That is how Hollywood operates. I think
48:01
Speaker 2: they do just steal all the things we say. For
48:03
Speaker 2: God's sakes, don't do that. That's what they do the
48:05
Speaker 2: next week. There's a meeting the next Monday and that. Alright,
48:08
Speaker 2: so this goes back to what you were just complaining
48:11
Speaker 2: about a minute ago. And we get it so often,
48:14
Speaker 2: I think I'm just going to have to go ahead
48:15
Speaker 2: and name the segment or play the theme song.
48:18
Speaker 5: Because every couple of weeks we have to talk.
48:21
Speaker 2: About what board game they're doing or what toy they're
48:25
Speaker 2: turning into a fucking movie. This week one-ups the love
48:29
Speaker 2: that Hollywood seems to have with toy movies. Paramount and
48:33
Speaker 2: Mattel are teaming up for the Magic 8-Ball movie.
48:36
Speaker 6: What?
48:37
Speaker 10: How the fuck do you have a movie about the
48:39
Speaker 10: damn magic eight ball?
48:41
Speaker 5: Ask again later.
48:42
Speaker 3: What would that have?
48:43
Speaker 2: I like that Roger just started hitting himself in the head.
48:46
Speaker 4: Yeah.
48:48
Speaker 2: That's what all of us are doing. Thank you. Are
48:50
Speaker 2: they going to have a movie?
48:51
Speaker 6: This is going to be interesting. I mean... Are they
48:53
Speaker 6: going to have, like, the backstory of the Slinky?
48:56
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, the Rubik's Cube movie.
48:58
Speaker 6: Are they going to, like, personify these things? Are they
49:00
Speaker 6: going to personify the eight balls?
49:01
Speaker 2: Is the eight ball going to talk? I hope so.
49:03
Speaker 2: Maybe it'll be, like, a weird puppet.
49:04
Speaker 3: It'll have Jim Carrey.
49:05
Speaker 5: I don't want to say, like, eight things, though.
49:07
Speaker 6: Yeah.
49:10
Speaker 11: Oh, wow.
49:11
Speaker 2: I don't know. I just thought that was taking it
49:13
Speaker 2: to a whole new level.
49:14
Speaker 6: Yeah.
49:14
Speaker 4: That's dumb.
49:17
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, there's no story on it. I can
49:20
Speaker 2: tell you who's making it, but we're not going to
49:21
Speaker 2: like them. It's people doing, like, Transformers and G.I.
49:24
Speaker 4: Joe.
49:24
Speaker 2: So, I mean, it's not like it's going to be good,
49:26
Speaker 2: but what the hell are they thinking?
49:28
Speaker 6: But, I mean, Transformers and G.I. Joe, those are, like.
49:31
Speaker 3: They had cartoons.
49:32
Speaker 6: They have cartoons. They have personalities.
49:34
Speaker 3: They have stories.
49:36
Speaker 6: A magic eight ball is a fucking magic eight ball.
49:38
Speaker 2: Thank you.
49:38
Speaker 4: No matter what way you put it.
49:40
Speaker 6: It's kind of longer than like 45 seconds and they're
49:43
Speaker 6: just like, oh, it says eight things. Like you said,
49:45
Speaker 6: what am I going to do with it?
49:46
Speaker 5: And if you let it sit for too long, God
49:48
Speaker 5: forbid the fucking goo inside dries out. And then you
49:51
Speaker 5: got nothing.
49:51
Speaker 6: I mean, maybe if it's like magic Jesus like I have,
49:54
Speaker 6: you know, you could like.
49:55
Speaker 5: That one is pretty fantastic.
49:57
Speaker 2: Magic Jesus ball.
49:58
Speaker 11: Yeah.
49:58
Speaker 6: Yeah.
50:00
Speaker 5: I can't think of anything possibly lamer unless they're doing
50:03
Speaker 5: like a building blocks or like you said, a sling.
50:05
Speaker 3: Yeah, connect for me.
50:06
Speaker 4: Lincoln Logs, the movie.
50:08
Speaker 6: Did you know Lincoln Logs were actually invented by Frank
50:10
Speaker 6: Lloyd Wright's son?
50:12
Speaker 10: Yeah, they were invented by frontiersmen that were out trying
50:16
Speaker 10: to build houses.
50:17
Speaker 5: I thought Abraham Lincoln made them.
50:18
Speaker 2: There you go. Lincoln invented everything.
50:20
Speaker 3: Yeah, I wanted to call it Frank Lloyd Wright Logs.
50:23
Speaker 2: That's probably why they're called Lincoln Logs because Illinois, Frank
50:29
Speaker 2: Lloyd Wright.
50:30
Speaker 4: from.
50:31
Speaker 8: Illinois i don't i don't know i have no idea

Speaker 5: The dramas of being unfriended.
51:16
Speaker 6: Maybe they're going to make a Farmville movie next. That'd
51:19
Speaker 6: be kind of funny.

Speaker 2: They probably will. Don't invite it. Once again, the meeting
51:22
Speaker 2: is next week.
51:23
Speaker 6: Don't mention it.
51:25
Speaker 2: Too late now. It's already gone.

51:28
Speaker 6: everybody plays? Mafia or whatever.
51:30
Speaker 5: Or Vampire the Max Green.
51:32
Speaker 6: Yep, there's going to be those movies.

Speaker 3: You guys are going to have to fill.
52:05
Speaker 4: Me in later on that. We'll let down.
52:06
Speaker 5: You'll be disappointed.
52:08
Speaker 6: Probably.
52:09
Speaker 4: Oh, Lord.
52:09
Speaker 2: So, yeah, on the Magic 8-Ball, we'll go out and
52:12
Speaker 2: invite you to come back and join us for our
52:14
Speaker 2: Out of the Town feature this week, Nightmare on Elm Street.
52:17
Speaker 2: We're back with the music.
52:21
Speaker 6: Yeah.
52:22
Speaker 5: She woke up long enough to do the music.
52:24
Speaker 2: That's not even Freddie.
52:27
Speaker 4: No, it's fine. I don't even.
52:28
Speaker 6: Remember what the Nightmare Island Street music is.
52:31
Speaker 5: I was going to do the other one, but I
52:33
Speaker 5: figured out if I did the 13th.
52:35
Speaker 10: Music, that would just be it.
52:36
Speaker 1: That's wrong.
52:37
Speaker 13: I've got a horseshoe hanging right.
52:41
Speaker 5: Above my door.
52:43
Speaker 13: I had a black cat, but she doesn't live here anymore.
52:47
Speaker 11: I look through.
53:02
Speaker 13: Time that you are fine. I put unwinding on you with.
53:08
Speaker 1: My hypnotic guide. But you're oblivious. Don't take me serious.
53:15
