- 0:10[SPEAKER_00]: I know.
- 0:10[SPEAKER_00]: I love it.
- 0:12[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's, I think, I think the fashion industry I'm fascinated by it because when I grew up, I wasn't the person who had the nice clothes, whatever.
- 0:21[SPEAKER_00]: In fact, I used to get out.
- 0:24[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, you know, I don't want to have some jokes coming my way.
- 0:27[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't really know how to match stuff, technically, you can't wear black and rare shoes, but like, I'll fit that has a lot of purple in it.
- 0:36[SPEAKER_00]: Learn that the hard way.
- 0:38[SPEAKER_00]: It's funny too, because I think it was safe.
- 0:41[SPEAKER_00]: It's, it's, I remember, I remember one day.
- 0:45[SPEAKER_00]: And it was like girls, too.
- 0:46[SPEAKER_00]: I remember like the old, the old-head dudes at my school was just like going in.
- 0:52[SPEAKER_00]: And then like so were like the really cute girls who were like older.
- 0:55[SPEAKER_00]: But it was one of the cute girls who was always nice to me.
- 0:58[SPEAKER_00]: She like pulled me aside and like explained matching.
- 1:02[SPEAKER_00]: It basically, like,
- 1:04[SPEAKER_00]: It was like, you know, this doesn't match and like you got to red shoes, but like your outfit has purple on it.
- 1:10[SPEAKER_00]: Like she it was like, I don't say I only know fashion because of women.
- 1:14[SPEAKER_00]: Like I genuinely dated a woman who was like, hey, we got to change this.
- 1:18[SPEAKER_00]: Like I'd never forget it.
- 1:19[SPEAKER_00]: She, do you change my whole wardrobe?
- 1:24[SPEAKER_00]: Like she was like, we can't.
- 1:25[SPEAKER_00]: You can't do this anymore.
- 1:27[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
- 1:27[SPEAKER_01]: You know what that was, Tessa.
- 1:30[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously.
- 1:30[SPEAKER_00]: Because you need that.
- 1:31[SPEAKER_00]: You need that.
- 1:32[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 1:32[SPEAKER_00]: Like I father on it.
- 1:34[SPEAKER_00]: I did too.
- 1:35[SPEAKER_00]: Also, what's so interesting is I don't know about you, but I had worked at MTV and I was coming from DC.
- 1:42[SPEAKER_00]: So it was like, you know, more Nike boots and like, what society calls like urban wear.
- 1:49[SPEAKER_00]: And there was another black student office that was only the two of us.
- 1:52[SPEAKER_00]: He pulled me aside one day and he was like, amen, I would never take a change to bring about yourself.
- 1:57[SPEAKER_00]: But he's like, just know, we're like, you're in a predominantly white space.
- 2:00[SPEAKER_00]: and you dressed like you still on the block.
- 2:02[SPEAKER_00]: He's like, I never get it.
- 2:04[SPEAKER_00]: And he was like, just know people, because people were just weird.
- 2:07[SPEAKER_00]: And he was like, Nassana's okay.
- 2:10[SPEAKER_00]: I still love this dude to the day.
- 2:11[SPEAKER_00]: He's like, Nassana's okay, but just, it's a perception.
- 2:15[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, he's the thing.
- 2:18[SPEAKER_01]: Literally, literally, this, it literally hours ago.
- 2:22[SPEAKER_01]: I was about to walk out the house and test it was like, that way you're wearing.
- 2:25[SPEAKER_01]: You're just like, you look like you're homeless.
- 2:31[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I was like, well, because I was wearing sweats and this like t-shirt and like a hoodie and she was like, can you just, maybe just wear something, I don't know.
- 2:41[SPEAKER_01]: And I was like, what?
- 2:42[SPEAKER_01]: I'm trying to feel comfortable at freaking, I love boosters.
- 2:47[SPEAKER_00]: Right, you know.
- 2:49[SPEAKER_00]: I felt like I almost was saying, I almost was about to say, yeah, man, it's crazy because like the dressing nicest is so expensive as hard to afford it.
- 2:57[SPEAKER_01]: And it really is.
- 2:59[SPEAKER_01]: And that's why I love boosters.
- 3:01[SPEAKER_01]: Exactly.
- 3:01[SPEAKER_01]: So that's what I think you could have did.
- 3:02[SPEAKER_00]: That's what you could have.
- 3:04[SPEAKER_00]: No.
- 3:05[SPEAKER_00]: That's the perfect transition we had, right?
- 3:07[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 3:09[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I wasn't really trying to transition.
- 3:10[SPEAKER_01]: I was just, oh, I was telling your story about how like Tesla was like,
- 3:16[SPEAKER_01]: just made me change my outfit when I was leaving.
- 3:19[SPEAKER_01]: And, you know, and then I just thought, I love boosters to non-secreters.
- 3:26[SPEAKER_01]: So you just, I don't know where you just, I love boosters.
- 3:28[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you know, sometimes you just gotta be weird.
- 3:31[SPEAKER_00]: Let's start the show!
- 3:32[SPEAKER_00]: Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
- 3:36[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my God, speaking of weird, Lord Everesty, this movie.
- 3:39[SPEAKER_00]: That's a title out.
- 3:50[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, can't jump.
- 3:52[SPEAKER_01]: Welcome to Blackman, can't jump in Hollywood.
- 3:55[UNKNOWN]: Hollywood's today.
- 3:56[UNKNOWN]: Yes.
- 3:56[SPEAKER_01]: I will, I will, that suck the soul out of position.
- 4:16[SPEAKER_00]: Don't, they had to be the line, right?
- 4:18[SPEAKER_00]: Don't, that, that line, and then her reaction to be like, well, I guess this won't work out, because I can't date a man who won't go down on me.
- 4:27[SPEAKER_01]: Bro, the,
- 4:29[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god, the hilarity of this is crazy.
- 4:34[SPEAKER_00]: And I think it's, I had one point, was like, because you know his movie's always like, we're good there, we're good land, good land, good freaking land.
- 4:42[SPEAKER_01]: For those of you who don't know, we are a film with you.
- 4:46[SPEAKER_01]: I can't get it.
- 4:47[SPEAKER_01]: We review the films of leading black actors.
- 4:49[SPEAKER_01]: We talk about them in the context of race and diversity in Hollywood, normally there are three of us on the podcast at host.
- 4:59[SPEAKER_01]: But today it's just the two, the two, the cookies.
- 5:05[SPEAKER_00]: The cookies on the phone.
- 5:07[SPEAKER_00]: Wait, what?
- 5:07[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, no, I don't know.
- 5:10[SPEAKER_01]: And the voice that you're listening to now that sounds like he worked at Hollister in set why when he was 17
- 5:21[SPEAKER_01]: And you worked at Hollister for the last day and the last day I worked there because I was like, I'm not coming back.
- 5:27[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to college.
- 5:28[SPEAKER_01]: It was like a summer job.
- 5:30[SPEAKER_01]: I was walking out of the mall with some friends and one of my it was like somebody I like kind of new, but like I wasn't like really his friend, but like he was just hanging out with a bunch of people I knew.
- 5:40[SPEAKER_01]: And then he was like, yo, do you mind if I?
- 5:43[SPEAKER_01]: You mind if I steal this shirt, he want to steal shirt off a mannequin.
- 5:46[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, what, he asked you?
- 5:48[SPEAKER_01]: And I was like, yeah, I mean, I'm not going to work anymore.
- 5:51[SPEAKER_01]: He was like, okay, and then he just took it.
- 5:54[SPEAKER_00]: What?
- 5:55[SPEAKER_00]: What?
- 5:55[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, all right.
- 5:56[SPEAKER_00]: You know, it is funny, because there is a thing of like, if you had to steal shoes from Foot Locker, they can't chase you.
- 6:03[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, they told us, isn't it?
- 6:04[SPEAKER_01]: That they told us that.
- 6:05[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, if you, if you see somebody running out, like you're not supposed to cheat.
- 6:10[SPEAKER_01]: You're not really even supposed to,
- 6:12[SPEAKER_01]: confront them outside of just being like, hey, can I help you?
- 6:15[SPEAKER_01]: Like, that's why they do that.
- 6:17[SPEAKER_01]: That's why they follow you.
- 6:18[SPEAKER_01]: And then they just go, can I help you?
- 6:19[SPEAKER_01]: Can I help you?
- 6:20[SPEAKER_01]: You're supposed to kind of put pressure on them that way.
- 6:23[SPEAKER_01]: But you can't be like, you stole that.
- 6:24[SPEAKER_01]: Like, they, you know, they kind of didn't want people to do that.
- 6:27[SPEAKER_01]: So they do have their security there.
- 6:28[SPEAKER_01]: And those things beat.
- 6:29[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p-p
- 6:31[SPEAKER_00]: But also, if you can make it out the mall, you did it.
- 6:34[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, I'm not about to chase you.
- 6:36[SPEAKER_00]: Every time someone gives me a lot of pressure, I've always worked in customer service.
- 6:39[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, it's not my stuff.
- 6:41[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, yeah.
- 6:43[SPEAKER_00]: Any time someone's like coming at me or like, or someone's arguing about like a price or returning to something, I'm like, how dare?
- 6:50[SPEAKER_00]: Like, it don't.
- 6:50[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
- 6:52[SPEAKER_00]: It's not my stuff.
- 6:52[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, also the people who make a bunch of money aren't me, like, I'm working with you.
- 6:59[SPEAKER_01]: I'm at the register with you now, uh, anyway.
- 7:03[SPEAKER_01]: Did I say my name?

- 8:21[SPEAKER_00]: And the lead of that movie is in this movie as well.
- 8:23[SPEAKER_00]: Her name is Karayon.
- 8:27[SPEAKER_00]: She's the bride.
- 8:28[SPEAKER_00]: One of the black people in the suit.
- 8:30[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, she's in it.
- 8:31[SPEAKER_00]: Our boy, Jermaine, followers in it as well.
- 8:34[SPEAKER_01]: Manfowler Camiel, this movie is about a group of shoplipters who take aim at a cut throat fashion avid by stealing her clothes and reselling them at a lower price, but they call fashion forward philanthropy, triple F. Yeah, and she knows how to spell for a lot of stuff.
- 8:55[SPEAKER_01]: This movie currently has a 92% on Rotten Tomatoes, 75% pop corn eater,
- 9:04[SPEAKER_01]: Unfortunately, not doing so hot at the box office.
- 9:07[SPEAKER_01]: Scott had a lot of competition.
- 9:09[SPEAKER_01]: Star Wars, the Mandalorian, and Grogo came out this weekend, making $82 million, I think weekend, not including the Memorial Day yet.
- 9:18[SPEAKER_01]: Obsession is a horror film that's doing really well.
- 9:21[SPEAKER_00]: It was the rush.
- 9:23[SPEAKER_01]: It made 22.4 million this weekend, and this is its second week.
- 9:27[SPEAKER_01]: It's actually up 30% from the last weekend, which is unheard of.
- 9:32[SPEAKER_01]: Michael, freaking hanging in there, 20 million this weekend.
- 9:37[SPEAKER_01]: Well, it's already made over $700 million worldwide.
- 9:42[SPEAKER_01]: Devilware's product, too, is hanging in there, number four.
- 9:46[SPEAKER_01]: The sheep detectives.
- 9:49[SPEAKER_01]: and then passenger, and then Mortal Kombat 2, and then I love boosters at 3.7 million.
- 9:58[SPEAKER_01]: Now it was only playing in 1700 theaters.
- 10:02[SPEAKER_01]: I say only because like that's not as, it's not as a wide release as other movies, but still it's on screen average.
- 10:10[SPEAKER_01]: It like, you know, it's not, not great.
- 10:14[SPEAKER_01]: That's great.
- 10:15[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I think this, I think boots,
- 10:18[SPEAKER_00]: Boots has a take.
- 10:20[SPEAKER_00]: I think you're either on board with it or you're just not.
- 10:23[SPEAKER_00]: Like, it is.
- 10:25[SPEAKER_00]: Cloud, Cloud, remember I think when we discussed it, I liked, sorry to bother you up until the horses.
- 10:30[SPEAKER_00]: And I was just like, but the horses, but it makes the movie, man.
- 10:36[SPEAKER_00]: I remember, what was the point of the horses again?
- 10:39[SPEAKER_01]: Like I guess like work courses, right?
- 10:42[SPEAKER_01]: He's like turning people into work courses, like literal literal horses though, right?
- 10:46[SPEAKER_01]: You know, right, right.
- 10:47[SPEAKER_01]: It's just, it's just like, I think these metaphors are just like a heightening comedic heightening of like, you know, his feelings about how
- 11:03[SPEAKER_01]: corporate, or corporate world treats, you know, it's labor force.
- 11:09[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and yeah, I mean, you know, this movie is definitely in the vein of a of a sorry to bother you.
- 11:20[SPEAKER_01]: Shall we get into initial thoughts?
- 11:22[SPEAKER_00]: You know, you will meet a go first.
- 11:24[SPEAKER_00]: You won't go first.
- 11:24[SPEAKER_00]: That's nice.
- 11:25[SPEAKER_00]: I can start, I can start.
- 11:26[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, okay, bring us in.
- 11:28[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, boy, stop it.
- 11:30[SPEAKER_01]: No, I really enjoyed this film.
- 11:34[SPEAKER_01]: I want to apologize for, I think.
- 11:40[SPEAKER_01]: Sometimes you know, like, I just have to admit, I wasn't in the exact right head space to see this movie.
- 11:47[SPEAKER_01]: because I feel like I get that again.
- 11:49[SPEAKER_01]: While it was happening, I was like, oh man, like, I'm a little too tired and I feel like some things may be going.
- 11:57[SPEAKER_01]: I was tired.
- 11:57[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, I think some things are going over my head.
- 12:00[SPEAKER_01]: Like, there were times where the audience was laughing and I was like, oh shoot, I missed the joke.
- 12:04[SPEAKER_01]: What's happened?
- 12:06[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, oh no, why am I not laughing?
- 12:09[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, at the same time, visuals, stunning.
- 12:14[SPEAKER_01]: colors.
- 12:14[SPEAKER_01]: Whoa, you know, um, I like I love the fact that Boots is like I'm a Pama do me, I'm gonna play around with stuff.
- 12:23[SPEAKER_01]: I'm gonna have fun with like cinema and like like indie cinema, you know, like it's just feels so, you know, it's a neon film feels very, I mean, and it's like unfortunately like indie like what indie film is now is like not actually indie, but like
- 12:42[SPEAKER_01]: But it still is, right?
- 12:44[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I mean, this movie cost $20 million to make.
- 12:47[SPEAKER_01]: So it's not $20 million.
- 12:49[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 12:49[SPEAKER_01]: Wow.
- 12:50[SPEAKER_01]: So it's not indie, but it is indie in relationship to the $200 million, right?
- 12:58[SPEAKER_01]: And he has fun with, with like, those things.
- 13:01[SPEAKER_01]: Like, you know, there's so many weird, like, like, like, cheeky palm, like, running and the, in the slanted office, you know, and then doing like the radio, the,
- 13:11[SPEAKER_01]: like that thing, like the huge ball of stuff of stuff, of like bills, car payments, or whatever, all that crap, you know, that ball of stuff, like that's awesome.
- 13:23[SPEAKER_01]: It was so clear that every single actor in this movie was having fun and like they all bought in.
- 13:29[SPEAKER_01]: which is like, I think a testament to the director, right?
- 13:32[SPEAKER_01]: Like sometimes like you feel like sometimes in these weird movies it feels like people on different pages.
- 13:36[SPEAKER_01]: It really didn't feel that way.
- 13:37[SPEAKER_01]: I felt like everybody was on the same page.
- 13:40[SPEAKER_01]: And this is a big cast.
- 13:41[SPEAKER_01]: So like, that was impressive.
- 13:43[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 13:44[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I specifically thought that
- 13:47[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I felt they were all great, but like, I feel like Naomi Aki really, really popped for me.
- 13:53[SPEAKER_01]: Like, she was great.
- 13:55[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, her, the relationship between her and Kiki.
- 13:58[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I can see that.
- 13:59[SPEAKER_00]: I also just think Taylor pages like one of the most attractive people in the world.
- 14:04[SPEAKER_00]: You know what's so funny, did you watch, um, do you watch, uh, no, no, no, it, the HBO show.
- 14:13[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yes, oh, she was, yeah, phenomenal.
- 14:17[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, like, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, wow, phenomenal.
- 14:23[SPEAKER_01]: And she was great in this.
- 14:24[SPEAKER_01]: I thought Debbie Moore was really good in this.
- 14:25[SPEAKER_01]: It really felt like, yeah, they're, I was laughing a lot.
- 14:29[SPEAKER_00]: What was one of the ones I was like, is having fun?
- 14:31[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, absolutely having fun.
- 14:33[SPEAKER_01]: I was laughing a lot.
- 14:34[SPEAKER_01]: I do think some things went over my head a little bit.
- 14:37[SPEAKER_01]: Again, I was just like a little too tired.
- 14:40[SPEAKER_01]: And there were parts where... What time did you see you, Bray?
- 14:44[SPEAKER_01]: It was a nine o'clock showing.
- 14:45[SPEAKER_01]: It wasn't that late, but it was like late enough.
- 14:47[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
- 14:47[SPEAKER_01]: Because nine o'clock is really nine.
- 14:48[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not gonna get that all at 10.15.
- 14:50[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 14:51[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 14:52[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 14:52[SPEAKER_00]: I get that.
- 14:53[SPEAKER_00]: That's all 10 15.
- 14:53[SPEAKER_00]: I was I was feeling that a little bit.
- 14:55[SPEAKER_01]: What else do I need to say?
- 14:58[SPEAKER_01]: And look, I the message that boots is like trying to broadcast to the world like I'm down with, right?
- 15:06[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I like, yes, like screw corporations, you know, like let's freaking unionize like let's let's
- 15:19[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, kind of like, yes, we all have a ball of stuff.
- 15:23[SPEAKER_01]: That's like, threatening to crush us at any point.
- 15:26[SPEAKER_01]: And yet, like the only way to, the only way to combat it is, is together, like, is a, is unity, strength and numbers.
- 15:34[SPEAKER_01]: So, like, I love that message, you know.
- 15:38[SPEAKER_01]: And there were certain, like, like, I really did enjoy the interviews that were happening.
- 15:44[SPEAKER_00]: How would it happen?
- 15:45[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, the team, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 15:48[SPEAKER_01]: Like her being like, like reading the like little like the screen of like, like it's just like stuff like low income housing oppressive or something.
- 15:58[SPEAKER_01]: And it's just like, like, like, no, like, no, no, whatever it talks about the struggles of free housing.
- 16:05[SPEAKER_01]: And you're like, what loved loved loved loved.
- 16:10[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so I definitely feel like I need to see this movie again, but I, I'm just here to, you know,
- 16:17[SPEAKER_01]: say that I, I'm with it, and I also understand why.
- 16:24[SPEAKER_01]: it's like hard to get people to see this movie.
- 16:27[SPEAKER_01]: If that makes sense.
- 16:28[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it makes sense.
- 16:29[SPEAKER_00]: Like I, I also, I was so impressed by this movie because this is the first time I've ever seen a black person basically do like Peewee and like, you know, and that's the stuff I kind of like grew up on.
- 16:46[SPEAKER_00]: So it was so fascinating to just see it.
- 16:48[SPEAKER_00]: Like what you're talking about what like the running and the big balling yarn.
- 16:51[SPEAKER_00]: Also, I randomly,
- 16:54[SPEAKER_00]: the day of, yeah, before seeing it was on YouTube.
- 16:58[SPEAKER_00]: And they had one of those like director videos that like, Ryan Kuhle had and it was boots, kind of taking us through like the production of it.
- 17:07[SPEAKER_00]: Like he wanted to mix things.
- 17:08[SPEAKER_00]: So it was like claymation, which you kind of can tell.
- 17:10[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
- 17:11[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, um, uh, matte painted paintings instead of like locations.
- 17:16[SPEAKER_00]: So he was like kind of doing old school Hollywood stuff.
- 17:19[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
- 17:20[SPEAKER_00]: I appreciate it.
- 17:23[SPEAKER_00]: almost so jarring to see it nowadays.
- 17:25[SPEAKER_00]: Sure.
- 17:26[SPEAKER_00]: Every nine, then you are here.
- 17:27[SPEAKER_00]: Somebody, they will do a mat painting and you kind of can't tell, but for him, he was like, now, I'm going to show you like, they're a clearly like, when they were doing a car chase, almost everything was clearly fake and like a toy.
- 17:39[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 17:41[SPEAKER_00]: And so, so the thing is, is like,
- 17:44[SPEAKER_00]: I think I respect the directing of it, but also saw a little late and I just was utterly confused by the device.
- 17:52[SPEAKER_00]: Like I do not understand how it worked with the point of, like,
- 17:57[SPEAKER_00]: The things you said, like I love everyone coming together, you and I, and I think everybody was having fun.
- 18:01[SPEAKER_00]: I would love the openness shot of just Kiki Palmer, like from behind, dancing in that club.
- 18:06[SPEAKER_00]: I was like so fire, so hot.
- 18:09[SPEAKER_00]: I thought it was very funny.
- 18:11[SPEAKER_00]: At one point, I was like, when is the weird thing going to hit?
- 18:13[SPEAKER_00]: Because something weird always happens.
- 18:15[SPEAKER_00]: And like, keep turning into basically a come demon within.
- 18:21[SPEAKER_00]: 30 minutes.
- 18:22[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, it happened pretty soon though.
- 18:23[SPEAKER_01]: We were supposed to start happening pretty soon.
- 18:25[SPEAKER_00]: It happened immediately.
- 18:27[SPEAKER_00]: Like he legit.
- 18:29[SPEAKER_00]: She, he sucked the soul out of her vagina.
- 18:32[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 18:35[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm, so I get why I was hard.
- 18:39[SPEAKER_00]: I do think this is the clearest message one of his movies is had for me towards the end of got really fashion heavy but at the beginning it definitely kind of had like a parasite like the the haven't had knots kind of vibe and like what are you going to do to like.
- 18:54[SPEAKER_00]: equal to paying for you like her that stuff I really enjoy but there's something about it and I'm like something about it doesn't connect for me and I don't know what it is because I did enjoy myself like if I if I saw this movie again I would want to like if you were like let's go see it tomorrow I'd be down over with TV I would watch it you know yeah we have something about it was just like a little off for me and I don't know what I think it was
- 19:25[SPEAKER_00]: Committed for me a little bit, but yeah, but I didn't enjoy it like I would yeah, I love you got to take this swing bro Like this wing is so crazy like it's such a crazy swing right and I saw two movies back the back I saw Two days in the row.
- 19:39[SPEAKER_00]: I saw is got is and like that also feels like a swing and to see black people particularly black women lead these movies down like
- 19:47[SPEAKER_00]: Think about it.
- 19:48[SPEAKER_00]: We did, they will kill you, which is a whole different genre of storm, but women.
- 19:53[SPEAKER_00]: And then when we finally review, it's got this.
- 19:55[SPEAKER_00]: That's how whole different genre from that.
- 19:57[SPEAKER_00]: And now this, which is different genre from all three is like, it's very cool to see black women in really cool.
- 20:01[SPEAKER_00]: Play in these spaces.
- 20:02[SPEAKER_00]: And they all look so drastically different, you know?
- 20:06[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 20:06[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, that's the one, I think probably the thing I love the most about this movie was that it had multiple
- 20:18[SPEAKER_01]: You know, like, it smashes the bacterial tests, right?
- 20:23[SPEAKER_01]: It allows black women to be different, like they're not all the same.
- 20:28[SPEAKER_01]: It's not about men.
- 20:29[SPEAKER_01]: It's not about whiteness.
- 20:31[SPEAKER_01]: While also not like erasing their blackness, right?
- 20:35[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, like the that friendship that dynamics, all that stuff was like.
- 20:39[SPEAKER_01]: was great.
- 20:40[SPEAKER_01]: I really enjoyed that.
- 20:42[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, well, let's get into it.
- 20:44[SPEAKER_01]: Um, yeah, this starts.
- 20:46[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, with her at a club.
- 20:48[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, and, you know, she sees, she sees looking first and there's clearly like something like she's like mesmerized by him in some way, even though, you know, he looks kind of, he looks a little silly.
- 20:59[SPEAKER_00]: Because he got that perm, he got that perm.
- 21:02[SPEAKER_01]: And even his clothes are just like, what is this guy?
- 21:06[SPEAKER_01]: What era is this?
- 21:06[SPEAKER_01]: What era is this?
- 21:07[SPEAKER_01]: Just like a pimped.
- 21:08[SPEAKER_01]: And then she talked, but she talks.
- 21:10[SPEAKER_01]: She winds up talking to this other dude.
- 21:12[SPEAKER_01]: Ask him, you know, like his shoe size.
- 21:14[SPEAKER_01]: And he's like, oh, it's well.
- 21:16[SPEAKER_01]: You know, and she's like, oh, are you really, are you really, are you really, are you really, yeah, yeah, yeah, and then she's like, okay, let's go back and I actually look close to here, they go back to her place and he, you know, obviously thinks he's about to hook up and she's like, hey, so yeah, like here's all the stuff I have and there's just a
- 21:35[SPEAKER_01]: room full of clothes and wait a minute, you're a booster and you know, so she establishes stolen these clothes and she literally wanted to know a shoe size because she has shoes that she wants to buy.
- 21:47[SPEAKER_01]: He's like mad at first.
- 21:50[SPEAKER_01]: Then I think the joke is he goes, okay, what you got on the size 10.
- 21:56[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, right?
- 21:56[SPEAKER_00]: That bit was so bloody.
- 21:59[SPEAKER_00]: What a good button on that joke, man.
- 22:01[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, and the thing is, it starts immediately.
- 22:03[SPEAKER_00]: Like I think the next scene is dim like about to boost some shit.
- 22:08[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think that's the scene that's in the trailer.
- 22:11[SPEAKER_01]: That's really fun.
- 22:12[SPEAKER_01]: Like them wearing all the...
- 22:14[SPEAKER_01]: like looking so silly, wearing all the clothes, like clearly, I'm still having stolen a bunch of stuff, like yeah, waterling down the parking lot.
- 22:22[SPEAKER_01]: I think that's like the next scene, right?
- 22:24[SPEAKER_00]: Like it is literally the next scene here.
- 22:27[SPEAKER_00]: And I will say this, hey, fashion designer.
- 22:31[SPEAKER_00]: I'm sorry, wardrobe on this freaking fantastic.
- 22:34[SPEAKER_00]: Whoever did it, yeah, it's out of this world.
- 22:37[SPEAKER_00]: Bro, bro, like my goodness, it is just killer.
- 22:43[SPEAKER_01]: yeah and it's great and it also it's like you feel like you're in
- 22:49[SPEAKER_01]: It's like it's own world, but also it's still feels like, yeah, this is like the fashion industry, whatever.
- 22:55[SPEAKER_01]: Like, you know, they're version of like an American apparel of that kind of place, like, uh, yeah, you know, they're the fake version of that, like felt so real.
- 23:07[SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, they like use a white lady to help them steal stuff.
- 23:10[SPEAKER_01]: So fun.
- 23:11[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 23:11[SPEAKER_00]: So funny.
- 23:12[SPEAKER_00]: And she's barely even in it.
- 23:13[SPEAKER_00]: She's really just in that one scene, and never see her again, like ever.
- 23:18[SPEAKER_00]: And wait, she's living in a old chicken spot for hate because she's she's squatting.
- 23:26[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so yeah, she's been a old chicken wingspot, which everyone keeps like, I won't wings, but they're like, there's no wings here.
- 23:33[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and so yeah, the crew is Kiki Palmer us Corvette got Naomi Akia.
- 23:38[SPEAKER_01]: Say it or is it Sadie or Say it?
- 23:41[SPEAKER_01]: Let me look at him because I don't.

- 24:08[SPEAKER_00]: when their white girl doesn't show up.
- 24:10[SPEAKER_00]: She's like, I got it, I can get us close.
- 24:13[SPEAKER_00]: And she holds her breath and then she turns light skin and it's, it's the holster breath that's her and light skin.
- 24:20[SPEAKER_01]: She just becomes Robin Thitty.
- 24:22[SPEAKER_00]: Like, I need to see this script.
- 24:25[SPEAKER_01]: I need to see this script so funny.
- 24:27[SPEAKER_00]: Like, this script has to be weird as hell.
- 24:30[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and it doesn't really work because they still, they're still following her and they're like, are you okay?
- 24:36[SPEAKER_00]: Think the line is like, man, it don't work.
- 24:37[SPEAKER_00]: They still follow her around like she's black girl.
- 24:39[SPEAKER_00]: It was like, they had a quip like a response to that about like life's getting enough for something like that.
- 24:45[SPEAKER_00]: Wow.
- 24:46[SPEAKER_00]: You might skin it enough anymore.
- 24:48[SPEAKER_00]: Wow.

- 25:00[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, he was fantastic.
- 25:03[SPEAKER_01]: I'm so funny man.
- 25:05[SPEAKER_01]: It's so funny that he's become kind of I mean, I guess he was in where the millers But he's like really become like a comedic act like he's like an actor, but they like he's being using these comedies and these really fun ways Well, I think the issue is like because he's always been in all those comedies like we the millers and all those silly movies He just got really hit them and they're like it's like check.
- 25:24[SPEAKER_01]: He's also tall
- 25:25[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and so were you there when he showed her a show?

- 25:41[SPEAKER_00]: And he's like, yeah, well, we got to make him.
- 25:43[SPEAKER_00]: He's got to do more than comedy.
- 25:44[SPEAKER_00]: Come and, um, him and, uh, Jon Hammum so fascinated by it.
- 25:48[SPEAKER_00]: Because they are such handsome men, but they love comedy in such a way.
- 25:52[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, they really do.
- 25:54[SPEAKER_00]: Do you feel like that's all they want to do, but because you're like how they look, people won't let them just do that.
- 25:59[SPEAKER_01]: He was in a warf the movie Warfare, which is that also out of Garland.
- 26:05[SPEAKER_01]: I thought he was really good in that, which is like super serious war moving.
- 26:10[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I didn't see it.
- 26:11[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I see it.
- 26:14[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I know I noticed how it works.
- 26:16[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, man.
- 26:17[SPEAKER_00]: They're like, um, brother, you got to be, uh, you got to be the handsome man.
- 26:23[SPEAKER_00]: Also, it wasn't gonna say, what does her name?

- 26:31[SPEAKER_00]: Issa?
- 26:31[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 26:32[SPEAKER_01]: Issa Gonzalez.
- 26:34[SPEAKER_00]: Because I didn't, I didn't fully remember.
- 26:37[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, who is, even though I have seen so she was in, well, apparently she was in.
- 26:44[SPEAKER_01]: I know her from Baby Driver.
- 26:45[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, yeah, I think that's where most people know her from.
- 26:48[SPEAKER_01]: Like, baby driver didn't like, like, that movie did not hit for me the way it did for so many people.
- 26:53[SPEAKER_01]: So I don't really remember Baby Driver that well.
- 26:57[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know why.
- 26:58[SPEAKER_00]: It hit for me hard.
- 27:00[SPEAKER_00]: It was like, it was like,
- 27:03[SPEAKER_00]: A big deal not a big deal, but I well, she has 7.9 million followers cool.
- 27:08[SPEAKER_01]: She's got she's also very pretty I mean, I agree actually.
- 27:13[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, I got damn 7.9 No, no, no, but still I'm like shit.
- 27:18[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, right.
- 27:19[SPEAKER_00]: She's in three body problem Which I watch the one that's right.
- 27:24[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I haven't seen that She's in got her she's in.
- 27:31[SPEAKER_00]: I know
- 27:32[SPEAKER_01]: She's in the Godzilla vs. Kong apparently, and I'm like, okay, and she's in pops and shot, and I'm like, yeah, she is.
- 27:43[SPEAKER_01]: Apparently.
- 27:44[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I don't remember.
- 27:46[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 27:46[SPEAKER_00]: All right, cool, good for her.
- 27:48[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 27:48[SPEAKER_00]: I know what point people like people were saying, she should be, um, one of them.
- 27:53[SPEAKER_00]: She is one of the names.
- 27:54[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, she should be one of them.
- 27:56[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 27:57[SPEAKER_00]: So I was like, you know, all right.
- 28:01[SPEAKER_01]: one of the stores, uh, one of the outlets for this fashion, uh, company that Demi Moore owns, um, it's like her and this other, her sit, it's other woman.
- 28:12[SPEAKER_01]: I think they get their pinched a lot.
- 28:15[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, she wasn't in a lot.
- 28:16[SPEAKER_01]: I don't, I've, unfortunately, don't know her name.
- 28:20[SPEAKER_00]: New York, if I, she didn't get like any of the, uh, unless you're on a car, but she's in that movie quite a bit.
- 28:27[SPEAKER_00]: Anyway, as you were.
- 28:28[SPEAKER_00]: Melissa, is it Melissa has or Hannah Alene?
- 28:32[SPEAKER_00]: No, it's not.
- 28:33[SPEAKER_00]: I'm trying to look, it's not on the on the wiki.
- 28:35[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm going to I had a video.
- 28:38[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, like this was a fun, like them getting like their checks and like it's like for like $42 and like $38.
- 28:47[SPEAKER_01]: And they're getting, and the reason they're checks are so low is because they're forced to wear the clothes that are in the store, but they can't, they don't get them for free.
- 28:55[SPEAKER_01]: They have to buy them.
- 28:56[SPEAKER_01]: And by the way, a hundred percent what these places do, that's exactly what happened when I worked at Hollister, they were like, they were like, you need to wear Hollister clothes.
- 29:04[SPEAKER_01]: Like you need to wear our brand.
- 29:06[SPEAKER_01]: And it was like, okay, are you going to give the clothes to me for free?
- 29:17[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, but like I have to buy the clothes like that's insane.
- 29:21[SPEAKER_00]: You're like this does nothing for you.
- 29:23[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's crazy.
- 29:25[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, I you know, I owned two Hollister shirts for a while because I worked at the store and I had to wear the clothes that they don't pay for you.
- 29:34[SPEAKER_01]: Like it's just.
- 29:36[SPEAKER_01]: It's, it's bizarre.
- 29:37[SPEAKER_01]: This is what I'm thinking a lot of these department stores do.
- 29:40[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 29:41[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, man, I worked out a store.
- 29:42[SPEAKER_00]: It made you buy it.
- 29:43[SPEAKER_00]: Like, I worked out a store and, um, like, they're not only to make you buy the clothes, but I was like, man, I can't afford it.
- 29:49[SPEAKER_00]: It was like, it was like, it was like, it was like, fancy stores in the mall.
- 29:52[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm like, I can't, even with a discount, I can't afford to buy a $500 t-shirt.
- 29:56[SPEAKER_00]: Like, I know how much I make.
- 29:58[SPEAKER_01]: Like, you know how much I'm, yeah, you know how much I make.
- 29:59[SPEAKER_01]: It was just nothing.
- 30:00[SPEAKER_01]: You don't pay me.
- 30:01[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 30:01[SPEAKER_00]: I remember what I would do is I would come in.
- 30:05[SPEAKER_00]: I never got caught, but I think I quit before I did it.
- 30:08[SPEAKER_00]: I probably would have, but I would come in and I would take one of the shirts off the rack and put it on and just tuck the tag.
- 30:17[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm not paying for this.
- 30:20[SPEAKER_00]: Like what the discount is still, whatever, man.
- 30:22[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, those stores are trash.
- 30:24[SPEAKER_01]: Oh my god, the bit where they're like on there, that they go to, they're like, all right, we're going to lunch.
- 30:28[SPEAKER_01]: And then they like kind of walk and then they both bend down.
- 30:31[SPEAKER_01]: You're like, what are they doing?
- 30:31[SPEAKER_01]: And then you realize they're putting their feet on starter.
- 30:34[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, this, like the track starter of things.
- 30:38[SPEAKER_01]: And they're just like, all right?
- 30:39[SPEAKER_01]: And your break starts at 3-2-1.
- 30:40[SPEAKER_01]: And they have to run.
- 30:44[SPEAKER_01]: Our break is a late 30 seconds.
- 30:45[SPEAKER_01]: I was like that's amazing.
- 30:47[SPEAKER_01]: I thought that was so hard They're run to get their food also this movie smart man.
- 30:53[SPEAKER_00]: It's so smart smart
- 30:55[SPEAKER_00]: It's so smart.
- 30:56[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, I think the thing, you know, they win, she, oh, yeah, she sneaks into, you know, Demi Moore's apartment in this, you know, slanted building, which is so silly that it slanted, because no one else can handle it, but then we more.
- 31:12[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
- 31:12[SPEAKER_01]: And like, is the metaphor for that just the fact that like, she's crooked, I have no idea.
- 31:18[SPEAKER_00]: I honestly, I have, maybe it is just that simple.
- 31:20[SPEAKER_00]: Like, she's crooked, like this places crooked.
- 31:23[SPEAKER_01]: I thought it was just to get the visual, the visual, of course they wanted the visual gag, but there has to be some deeper meaning to like why they did it.
- 31:31[SPEAKER_00]: Like why is there just a weird slanted building in the middle of San Francisco?
- 31:36[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's real, because I'm like, what has happened it?
- 31:38[SPEAKER_00]: You know what I mean?
- 31:39[SPEAKER_01]: What's the other thing that's funny about it is like if you've been like people, anyone who's been to San Francisco, they have very like steep hills.
- 31:46[SPEAKER_01]: And like sometimes when you're walking up, you do feel like you're freaking walking.
- 31:50[SPEAKER_01]: You know, like, like, on a, on a incline, but yeah, her like slipping.
- 31:56[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that was fun, right?
- 31:58[SPEAKER_00]: And it's also, she also takes, what's they start talking to her and Kiki, she takes Kiki's like favorite color.
- 32:06[SPEAKER_00]: We realize Kiki's like, open it up because she always agileizes women.
- 32:10[SPEAKER_00]: So she like says her favorite color, which she calls Torcoise, but she says it's actually
- 32:17[SPEAKER_00]: That's actually awkward, and I was like, okay.
- 32:20[SPEAKER_00]: And as she takes her like, she takes like later on in an interview, she takes exactly what she says, it's like the meaning of life and why she likes it.
- 32:27[SPEAKER_00]: This part, this part was fun.
- 32:28[SPEAKER_00]: It's so hard, but because some of the stuff like, was just like really cool visually, but maybe there's a connection thing that I, because at one point I did start struggling with like,
- 32:38[SPEAKER_00]: What's happening?
- 32:39[SPEAKER_00]: Like Lily like what do we watch it right now?
- 32:42[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
- 32:43[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it was just so basically what happened like the thing that's kind of the thing that strange that starts to happen is they decide to they're like going to go work at this store so that they can.
- 32:54[SPEAKER_01]: And I guess like the mention of a hundred thousand dollar suits came into play, but they also were just going to steal from the store.
- 33:00[SPEAKER_01]: And but then at some point when they're all on this like meeting, they come back and like the store is completely empty and somebody else's boosted the store before they could.
- 33:15[SPEAKER_01]: And it was like all the clothes are gone and it like doesn't make sense and at first it just feels like comical but then they like somehow review security footage and they see that somebody has used some sort of device that's like sucking up all of the clothes and they're like what the heck and then I forgot exactly how but somehow they tracked that word that person down Oh because they hacked into the hack into the camera but then deleted the camera afterwards
- 33:39[SPEAKER_00]: Right, but how do they know where she was going to be next again, they just kept going from place it was like a montage with a car going from place to place just because they were like, oh, they're they're they're they have to hit some place next.
- 33:49[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, they just kept going right and I did like this story is like she is there.
- 33:55[SPEAKER_00]: Um, what is Poppy's character's name?
- 33:58[SPEAKER_00]: I'm scared to miss for no status.
- 33:59[SPEAKER_00]: I'm just say Poppy.
- 34:01[SPEAKER_00]: Um, but her character, she's there because she worked in the sweatshop that made the made the clothes, which is interesting because fast fashion has become a thing, which is why I personally, I mean, I've been trying to, well, I haven't bought that much clothes I got in the money.
- 34:16[SPEAKER_00]: But when I do buy clothes, I've been trying to buy it from, um,
- 34:20[SPEAKER_00]: like smaller places that like you can find the person that made it because fast-fashioned like they keep they always promise to recycle it but it's like the does they use that get people sick as to conditions they do like working for like she and even uh I think Zara's coming under fire quite some quite often like saying what like H&M and I think everyone is like promised to recycle a lot of the clothes but a lot of people were buying these clothes and they only last like a year maybe two years before they start like kind of shredding
- 34:47[SPEAKER_00]: And it kind of sucks.
- 34:49[SPEAKER_00]: It really sucks because when you think about it, even with all of this going on, in this movie, like people are scared to protest it, like people are scared to strike and just need that little bit of money.
- 35:00[SPEAKER_00]: We still exist with socks, like just stuff sucks.
- 35:04[SPEAKER_00]: This I was I was very happy that they actually touched on that in such a way that like it showed people getting sick it showed her brother them trying to like unionize but that not working right and she's like fuck I'm gonna steal the clothes and that's the only way to make her hurt which sucks the only way to get rich people or people outside of a community sometimes to understand your pain is to make them feel it instead of people just having simple empathy for someone else right it's like it's crazy
- 35:32[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, it's, yeah, so, and it's funny, like, they were stealing up.
- 35:37[SPEAKER_01]: They were like, but the plan was actually like, they were, so somehow this is a device.
- 35:42[SPEAKER_01]: is a teleporter.
- 35:43[SPEAKER_01]: And I first, that's why all they think it is.
- 35:45[SPEAKER_01]: And this, so it was sucking the clothes up and teleporting them back to China.
- 35:51[SPEAKER_01]: And they were, and then like we see this video with a guy is like, oh, we're holding your clothes hostage until you meet our demands.
- 35:57[SPEAKER_01]: And the demands were just like a raise, like, stop using this like sand blasting practice that's killing us.
- 36:05[SPEAKER_01]: And
- 36:07[SPEAKER_01]: What was the other thing?
- 36:08[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
- 36:09[SPEAKER_01]: It was all like everything was like so small and like basic.
- 36:14[SPEAKER_00]: And she was like absolutely not after you.
- 36:16[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, like literally like has some balls or something.
- 36:19[SPEAKER_00]: And it's like, I struggle, man.
- 36:23[SPEAKER_00]: I truly struggle when it comes to rich people.
- 36:25[SPEAKER_00]: Because it's such a huge disconnect.
- 36:28[SPEAKER_00]: Like I went to an event today.
- 36:31[SPEAKER_00]: I went to an event today and on the sidewalk.
- 36:33[SPEAKER_00]: There was a man who clearly was unhoused and like going through it.
- 36:39[SPEAKER_00]: And you saw people just actively walk around him.
- 36:41[SPEAKER_00]: You even saw a one point like people riding their bikes and like going around him and like hopping over him and like they're such a thing where like people don't care about other people, you know.
- 36:51[SPEAKER_00]: It's like how do you live with that?
- 36:54[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and the systems are so, so messed up.
- 36:57[SPEAKER_01]: I've been watching a lot of nature.
- 36:59[SPEAKER_01]: I've been watching Planet Earth 3 because it's on HBO Max.
- 37:03[SPEAKER_01]: And it's like amazing and then also super hard out because every because, you know, they got to remind you about all the horrible things humans are doing to destroy this.
- 37:11[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
- 37:11[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
- 37:12[SPEAKER_01]: Like on it, yeah.
- 37:13[SPEAKER_01]: We're destroy all these ecosystems and stuff.
- 37:16[SPEAKER_01]: And one of the things that they showed
- 37:21[SPEAKER_01]: You know, like shopping down parts of the Amazon rain forest, and then like they plant eucalyptus trees like, and eucalyptus trees are not native obviously to South America, but the reason they plant those is because they grow super fast, and then like every five years, they like chop them down again to make.
- 37:39[SPEAKER_01]: you know, like pulp and and paper and stuff like that.
- 37:43[SPEAKER_01]: But it's like the eucalyptus trees because they're not native and because they're part of the reason they grow so fast, they suck up all these nutrients.
- 37:50[SPEAKER_01]: And so them all these trees sucking up the nutrients are destroying the like other trees that actually is supposed to belong there, which of course kills all the animals that rely on those other trees that belong there.
- 38:00[SPEAKER_01]: And they're just like, yeah, it's like this tree desert because you just and they have these shots of like these homogenized trees and you're like, oh my god.
- 38:07[SPEAKER_01]: It all affects everything, you know, so like, you know, and unfortunately, yeah, like one of the big parts that's all one of the big things that has always been a black mark on the fashion industry is like how many sweatshirt like it's like heavily reliant on sweatshops, which is supplied by either like sometimes literal child labor or like just people who are obviously getting severely underpaid who are working in poorer conditions like
- 38:36[SPEAKER_01]: Conditions that are dangerous, you know, sometimes huge accidents happen at these places where a bunch of people die and like, but the thing is like, we're so Remove for like even though it's always happening when you hear about it happening, we're just like, well, what are we, what are we going to do?
- 38:53[SPEAKER_01]: We still want our clothes, we still want our nice clothes, so we like, you know,
- 38:58[SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, like the billionaires don't care because like they doesn't affect them.
- 39:01[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and their job is to just increase profits like it.
- 39:04[SPEAKER_01]: It's not about like being, uh, you know, moral or ethical.
- 39:09[SPEAKER_00]: They don't give two crabs.
- 39:11[SPEAKER_00]: So of course, this is not a political podcast, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
- 39:34[SPEAKER_00]: because then all of us in the stores start getting armed guards.
- 39:38[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
- 39:38[SPEAKER_00]: And so they can't do that.
- 39:39[SPEAKER_00]: And then they decide to do one big score, which is Rob, make see her, you know, Victoria's secret fashion show or whatever her big fashion show.
- 39:50[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
- 39:50[SPEAKER_00]: Wait, there are weird things to happen.
- 39:52[SPEAKER_00]: I know we touched on it.
- 39:54[SPEAKER_00]: But the keeps come demon.
- 39:56[SPEAKER_00]: It's because we're so funny about it.
- 39:59[SPEAKER_00]: It's
- 40:00[SPEAKER_00]: There's a line in one ballot after another, where like, they're talking about Tiana Taylor and one of the white dudes goes, so she was a, come demon, like, yeah.
- 40:10[SPEAKER_00]: Oh yeah, that's right, I remember that.
- 40:12[SPEAKER_00]: And to see him and he's like this literally, oh, see me demons.
- 40:17[SPEAKER_00]: See me demons, see me demons, thank you.
- 40:19[SPEAKER_00]: See me demons.
- 40:20[SPEAKER_00]: He's literally this claymation demon dragon thing.
- 40:27[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, he looks hideous.
- 40:29[SPEAKER_00]: And then they had a shot of him, bro, with his face covered.
- 40:35[SPEAKER_01]: Sound effects and all as she dries up, like a freaking desert cracked earth.
- 40:43[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that was a lot.
- 40:45[SPEAKER_00]: The only thing is I was doing, I was in the only I did struggle with.
- 40:48[SPEAKER_00]: Because I thought everything was visually was dope.
- 40:50[SPEAKER_00]: But the effect every time he was talking, I thought,
- 40:55[SPEAKER_00]: Something was going to come of that and especially when we realized he was a semen demon.
- 40:58[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, oh, is this him trying to hypnotize her to like I don't I thought someone was going to come of like the fact that she's entranced every time.
- 41:07[SPEAKER_00]: I think it was just a bit.
- 41:09[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah, that makes that make sense.
- 41:12[SPEAKER_00]: That makes sense
- 41:13[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, like, yeah, there was a little bit of, like, a transmem, and, but, like, and then I guess she breaks out of it.
- 41:18[SPEAKER_01]: I don't, I guess I don't, I didn't understand, like, like, he, like, it was fun, but like, I didn't understand what he was supposed to represent.
- 41:26[SPEAKER_01]: I didn't either.
- 41:27[SPEAKER_01]: I genuinely didn't either.
- 41:29[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, that was the part where I felt dumb.
- 41:30[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, I'm dumb.
- 41:32[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
- 41:32[SPEAKER_01]: I'm too tired, like, I don't know what he's supposed to be.
- 41:36[SPEAKER_01]: Like, outside of, like, literally what they're saying, like, I was just like, I was either.
- 41:40[SPEAKER_01]: What's the idea of this?
- 41:42[SPEAKER_01]: Like he is who is he represent in the world?
- 41:46[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if he was saying something about male and female relations, relationships.
- 41:52[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, because, because Loki, you probably, I feel like everyone will be probably what, well, yeah, I see him in David.
- 41:57[SPEAKER_00]: And that was a bit, right?
- 41:58[SPEAKER_01]: Cause she was like,
- 42:01[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, there was one point where Taylor Page was just like, you should just go out with him.
- 42:05[SPEAKER_01]: Just like, just make sure he doesn't go down on you or he'll suck, he'll suck your soul out and she's like,
- 42:15[SPEAKER_01]: And she was like, maybe I want my soul to be sucked out.
- 42:17[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I was like, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,
- 42:40[SPEAKER_00]: What was the third one?
- 42:41[SPEAKER_01]: I was so... Well, it's the accelerator.
- 42:43[SPEAKER_01]: It's the something like the... Something accelerator.
- 42:48[SPEAKER_01]: That was the... Yeah, what was it like?
- 42:52[SPEAKER_01]: I think it says something like the situational accelerator.
- 42:55[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 42:57[SPEAKER_01]: And it makes you even more of what you already are, something like that?
- 43:02[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 43:02[SPEAKER_01]: That whole monologue, like when she was going on about that, like issues like blah, blah, blah, I was just like,
- 43:08[SPEAKER_01]: I think that's what I felt the most tired.
- 43:10[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, what does she say?
- 43:12[SPEAKER_01]: I literally was like standing like, what's happening?
- 43:15[SPEAKER_00]: Brad had no idea.
- 43:16[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't really had no idea.
- 43:19[SPEAKER_00]: What was happening?
- 43:21[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, there was a bit where they shoot Taylor with it.
- 43:25[SPEAKER_01]: I think for the deconstruction, it just becomes like her mom and dad have had.
- 43:29[SPEAKER_01]: It's like furious sex, like these two make it older people.
- 43:32[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and if that's the case, why wasn't it then when they were younger having her?
- 43:36[SPEAKER_00]: Like, I don't.
- 43:37[SPEAKER_00]: That part I was like, I mean, it's jokes.
- 43:40[SPEAKER_00]: I know, the visual of her.
- 43:41[SPEAKER_00]: And if she, like, guess it doesn't work all the time?
- 43:43[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 43:45[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah.
- 43:48[SPEAKER_00]: I think, and then after that, they go, so this is the thing.
- 43:52[SPEAKER_00]: When they go in, they don't want to work with Isaac's character.
- 43:57[SPEAKER_01]: Right, she's trying to unionize, and I think she literally says that, she's like, we're trying to unionize, and they're like, yeah, we're not even going to be work, like the first time she brings it up, they're like, we're not even going to be working here anymore.
- 44:09[SPEAKER_01]: And then she's like talking about a later on, they're like, yeah, but we're like also just trying to steal this stuff.
- 44:15[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and it was like, and even that became like a big argument of like, and I think that was the thing, too, is like, when they said, I was like, oh, what's the end game here?
- 44:22[SPEAKER_00]: Is the end game like we're going to go in here?
- 44:24[SPEAKER_00]: We're going to steal this, because even at a couple of times at the very beginning, at a very beginning, they kept saying, um, that, oh, my goodness, my blank, oh, my goodness, my blank.
- 44:33[SPEAKER_00]: What was about to say?
- 44:34[SPEAKER_00]: I don't even remember, I don't even remember.
- 44:36[SPEAKER_00]: I don't even remember.
- 44:37[SPEAKER_01]: Basically, maybe it was Poppy because Poppy was like,
- 44:41[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we're doing this, so we can get this in blah, blah, and they're like, yeah, our engines are kind of aligned, but we also just want the stuff, so let's have a split of what the stuff is.
- 44:51[SPEAKER_01]: And the same with Isaac was like, and then it became like Keke's character became like, I want to embarrass Demimore because she keeps going on talking about urban pitches.
- 45:04[SPEAKER_01]: And she was like, basically, like, oh, and also I guess she was stealing Demi,
- 45:11[SPEAKER_01]: They did like a crib's kind of thing and then she's like, yeah, like, here's my home and it's like, it's an aquamarine.
- 45:18[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's an aquamarine.
- 45:20[SPEAKER_00]: She's like, it's a turquoise.
- 45:21[SPEAKER_00]: So does that mean she knew who it was then?
- 45:23[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, she didn't know who it was because there was a scene.
- 45:25[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if you missed it, but there was a scene where
- 45:29[SPEAKER_01]: Demi Morris character is like looking at the footage, and she sees the same dress that Kiki was wearing at her place, and then she goes to that, and then she goes to the coffee person and she was like, hey, like, do you know like whatever she curvy curvy tana or whatever makes like made up name she made up missed it.
- 45:53[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, you, you maybe you fell asleep, man.
- 45:55[SPEAKER_01]: No, no, no.
- 45:56[SPEAKER_01]: Did I fall?
- 45:57[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, cause then the that the coffee person was like, no.
- 46:00[SPEAKER_01]: And then she was like, who's your manager?
- 46:02[SPEAKER_01]: And she's like, I don't have a manager.
- 46:03[SPEAKER_01]: We don't have managers for high-end clients.
- 46:04[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I report directly to whatever corporate or something.
- 46:08[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
- 46:08[SPEAKER_01]: And she was like, oh, and so that's when she knew exactly who Kiki Palmer was.
- 46:12[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
- 46:13[SPEAKER_01]: I.
- 46:14[SPEAKER_01]: I must have fell asleep.
- 46:16[SPEAKER_01]: Did you catch when when they bought out all the candy like she bought the candy company?
- 46:21[SPEAKER_01]: So I didn't notice that.
- 46:23[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, she did not just mess with her.
- 46:25[SPEAKER_00]: Because I was wondering, even when she said, when she quoted back the Aquamarines stuff, I was like, huh, I guess you knew the whole time.
- 46:32[SPEAKER_00]: Bro, I legit was sleeping.
- 46:35[SPEAKER_00]: I, yeah.
- 46:36[SPEAKER_00]: Wow.
- 46:37[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, okay.
- 46:38[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, because she was like, oh, that's why she kept being like, it's the velvet kit, it's whatever they call themselves the velvet gang or whatever.
- 46:45[SPEAKER_01]: The thing that I know that I missed was where that device came from.
- 46:53[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, oh, oh, okay.
- 46:54[SPEAKER_00]: So that's how that part you must have been sleep.
- 46:57[SPEAKER_00]: I missed that because I literally was like, wait, where did this device go so so that was a flashback when Poppy talks about her and her brother used to like just fuck around in between ships and they will go through they ended up finding a way through the top like through the, um, what's the call the overheads the, um,
- 47:21[SPEAKER_00]: It was going to air ducts and they saw the fashion company ended up stealing technology from the government and the government lost it can figure out what it was and they were testing it because they wanted to use it to get away with not paying shipping costs.
- 47:39[SPEAKER_00]: And so they were using one end to just so like bags of and stuff a close through it.
- 47:44[SPEAKER_00]: And one day they end up stealing it when they realized the strike wasn't going to work and they hid it in the ducks.
- 47:50[SPEAKER_00]: And then it was a montage of like the everybody.
- 47:54[SPEAKER_00]: All the workers getting interviewed.
- 47:56[SPEAKER_00]: And then they started like bursting into the work as homes to see where it was.
- 48:00[SPEAKER_00]: And then she ends up jumping through it in the states to like, right, Rob all the stores.
- 48:05[SPEAKER_00]: Got it.
- 48:05[SPEAKER_00]: Looks like you fell asleep too.
- 48:08[SPEAKER_00]: I definitely don't that's I'd break out of never else.
- 48:11[SPEAKER_00]: I felt asleep.
- 48:11[SPEAKER_00]: That's crazy.
- 48:13[SPEAKER_01]: All right.
- 48:14[SPEAKER_01]: Well, both of our income technology could put together to make one whole movie.
- 48:19[SPEAKER_00]: Well, that's crazy.
- 48:20[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, forget no.
- 48:22[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, but you know what, I was just so tired.
- 48:26[SPEAKER_01]: I was too.
- 48:27[SPEAKER_01]: I was too.
- 48:28[SPEAKER_01]: And you know what?
- 48:28[SPEAKER_01]: Look, I remember.
- 48:30[SPEAKER_01]: I remember.
- 48:31[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, as a kid or even like even like in my early 20s, like being with my dad and my dad fall in a sleep and church or my dad fall in a sleep watch moving.
- 48:40[SPEAKER_01]: I'd be like, this dude just fall asleep.
- 48:42[SPEAKER_01]: That is me now.
- 48:43[SPEAKER_01]: Honestly, I was watching a movie just I literally am watching the movie and then they're like, I don't like It's funny because like when you fall asleep, you don't know what you miss and I you don't know how how much how long you fell asleep But there was a part where I was like I was like watching and then I like and then I was like, oh, I was just asleep just then And I was like that.
- 49:01[SPEAKER_01]: That's what I think and I was like seems like I understand everything and then there was a certain point where I was like I was like wait a minute Where did this device come from?
- 49:12[SPEAKER_00]: That was like, oh, I must have felt soup during that too.
- 49:14[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god, that's so funny.
- 49:16[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, one of the things they keep throwing like this whole movie is that, Demi Moore has like a special suit.
- 49:22[SPEAKER_00]: It said, it's a $100,000, yeah, $100,000.
- 49:25[SPEAKER_00]: $100,000, this is crazy soup.
- 49:28[SPEAKER_00]: They finally like break in and it was like, freak it, let's get the suit.
- 49:31[SPEAKER_00]: And so I was gonna feel so the suit is a human suit.
- 49:35[SPEAKER_01]: So the suits, the $100,000 suits are actually human suits.
- 49:40[SPEAKER_01]: human skins, you know, and that these people put on so that they can do these videos.
- 49:47[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, we thought we were just kind of watching like funny things the whole time, but like all the people we saw in the videos that were like being interviewed and basically saying things like, yeah, like I don't want free health care and I don't want better housing and
- 50:05[SPEAKER_01]: You know, like all this like it, and why would a skinless because so that they can put on the skins of other people so that they could pretend to be minorities, got it, so that they can like talk about.
- 50:19[SPEAKER_01]: And like a part of one of the other things was the Don Sheetle's character who had this pyramid scheme, which we kind of skipped over, because that was like,
- 50:27[SPEAKER_01]: And anyway, that was Naomi's whole thing.
- 50:30[SPEAKER_01]: It was like she was into this pyramid scheme where you just have that he was like, look, all you have to do is like, you pay $2,000.
- 50:36[SPEAKER_01]: You pay $2,000 and then you get a couple of people.
- 50:39[SPEAKER_01]: And then you start here, but then you'll be here.
- 50:40[SPEAKER_01]: And then all this, then you'll be up here.
- 50:42[SPEAKER_01]: And it's like you and underneath was like Elon Musk.
- 50:46[SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, I was just like, it's so funny.
- 50:49[SPEAKER_01]: Like it was just a literal pyramid scheme.
- 50:50[SPEAKER_01]: But the thing is, Ball Thai level marketing is still so popular.
- 50:54[SPEAKER_01]: There's still so many of those companies.
- 50:56[SPEAKER_01]: And again, it's just people wanting, you know, to make money quicker and they just prey on like people's desire to like make money easier and faster than maybe they normally would and you know, there's also a little bit of cult cult.
- 51:13[SPEAKER_00]: And it's a different, it's bad who like need help.
- 51:16[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, they need help, you know?
- 51:18[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm like, that's a part that's so hard because I'm like, you know, even like for me, I'm like, man, as stuff gets tight, you're like, you're looking for like help.
- 51:26[SPEAKER_00]: And then you see these things, exactly.
- 51:28[SPEAKER_00]: Like, oh, I know for someone who's in more dire strange to me, this is the moment.
- 51:34[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 51:37[SPEAKER_01]: 100%.
- 51:38[SPEAKER_01]: It was really funny when the Keith at the end was like,
- 51:41[SPEAKER_00]: Wait, there's something that I think you need.
- 51:43[SPEAKER_01]: And then he takes out the beer with it.
- 51:47[SPEAKER_00]: She's like, oh, no.
- 51:49[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, that is so funny.
- 51:50[SPEAKER_01]: Like, he's into this too.
- 51:52[SPEAKER_01]: He's a freaking, he's a freaking demon.
- 51:54[SPEAKER_01]: And he's like, into this demon.
- 51:56[SPEAKER_00]: A demon who's been alone, right?
- 51:58[SPEAKER_00]: He's been alone for so long.
- 52:00[SPEAKER_00]: He's been alone for so long.
- 52:02[SPEAKER_01]: And so, yeah, they had these human suits that they would just like tune you to that they would wear.
- 52:09[SPEAKER_01]: It was gross.
- 52:09[SPEAKER_01]: It was gross, and that was the claymation.
- 52:12[SPEAKER_01]: And then, yep, there were ones of being a crazy car tracing.
- 52:15[SPEAKER_00]: Which is so interesting, because even like, the car tracing, all claymation and stuff, which was cool, or another fun cameo, right?
- 52:23[SPEAKER_01]: We get a... Oh, Jermaine?
- 52:25[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I mean, Jermaine is in there, but I meant in the car chasing.
- 52:28[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, Eric Andre.
- 52:29[SPEAKER_01]: Eric Andre.
- 52:30[SPEAKER_00]: broke my theater lit up the moment he came on square he was he him and that thing like you're like because that was the they hit the accelerator thing and like the cop car just becomes a huge tank you know he was so I he was like we're not gonna win that's the moment he popped up I was like this is this is this is perfect bit
- 52:50[SPEAKER_00]: is a perfect bit.
- 52:51[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, they do that chase.
- 52:52[SPEAKER_00]: It is a pretty good, um, I think a chase, like, that she uses a teleported jump between America, then the sweatshop, and and then Nate, the, the, the, the people who work in the shop, end up uniting, it helped her and like, you know, taking down the people, and then we'll so interested is then we go back into the fashion show with Demi.
- 53:10[SPEAKER_00]: And I was like, oh, I thought this was done.
- 53:11[SPEAKER_00]: Me too.
- 53:12[SPEAKER_00]: There was a part of it.
- 53:13[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, to time pat like, what's
- 53:17[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, and they were just going like, I was like, I was like, what, what were they all doing in this entire time?
- 53:25[SPEAKER_00]: Like, I guess the Vajajou.
- 53:27[SPEAKER_00]: And they, you know, they come in a, what did they do to deconstruct it all the clothes, right?
- 53:32[SPEAKER_01]: Well, that's what they were doing at first, right?
- 53:34[SPEAKER_01]: They were, they were hitting the models, deconstructing the clothes, turning them back into whatever that made them, which is the reason why like there was like a bunch of naked,
- 53:43[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, models running around.
- 53:44[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, it's Breston Balls.
- 53:46[SPEAKER_00]: They're huge.
- 53:48[SPEAKER_00]: It's like Breston Dix, every.
- 53:52[SPEAKER_00]: That line was so funny to me, man.
- 53:55[SPEAKER_00]: But then, there was one thing, is they technically went into in, but then when Demi Moore walks up on him,
- 54:02[SPEAKER_00]: Like no one got arrested.
- 54:03[SPEAKER_00]: Like, conceptically, they still were, they were boosted.
- 54:05[SPEAKER_00]: They still were thieves.
- 54:06[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
- 54:07[SPEAKER_00]: And I was like, so did Demi not press charges or the people in the suits today work for her?
- 54:12[SPEAKER_00]: And they were just trying to get her out of there?
- 54:14[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, what's?
- 54:16[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'm not sure if they can fuse me alone.
- 54:17[SPEAKER_01]: The, the, yeah, I'm not like, I don't know.
- 54:20[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I just understood that like,
- 54:23[SPEAKER_01]: somehow like they like everybody you like the whole world union that that whole world but kind of right Yeah, yeah, but there was this whole thing
- 54:37[SPEAKER_01]: That was said, that I really enjoyed because Kiki was trying to embarrass or she was like, she's a billionaire.
- 54:45[SPEAKER_01]: You're just going to annoy her.
- 54:48[SPEAKER_01]: The most you could do is annoy her.
- 54:49[SPEAKER_01]: I have to say, oh my god, it's so true.
- 54:56[SPEAKER_01]: It's so demoralized.
- 54:58[SPEAKER_01]: They will never be like, what do you, what do you do?
- 55:00[SPEAKER_01]: Like, like, ultimately, like, what are these, like, you stealing from there or protest or whatever, just like talking bad about them?
- 55:07[SPEAKER_00]: Like, it's just like, you're just annoying.
- 55:09[SPEAKER_00]: That's it.
- 55:10[SPEAKER_00]: You're, you're, you're literally never going to get the money from them.
- 55:13[SPEAKER_00]: It'll just be like, all right.
- 55:14[SPEAKER_00]: Well, yeah, all right, you know, fine.
- 55:18[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and then how does it end exactly?
- 55:19[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, well, um,
- 55:23[SPEAKER_01]: I was going to reference somebody who doesn't like, we referencing them.
- 55:29[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so as Tesla was like talking about, we were just talking about like the we have that like cool metaphor of the big ball of junk whatever was like all the burdens that that she kept seeing rolling down the hill and then like it's it's just shrinks and it shrinks to the size that she can like put it in.
- 55:52[SPEAKER_01]: It's like a manageable size.
- 55:53[SPEAKER_01]: I think that's the word that you use that I was like, oh, yeah, that's great.
- 55:56[SPEAKER_01]: Like it was a manageable size that she could hold in her hand and put in there.
- 56:00[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
- 56:01[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
- 56:02[SPEAKER_01]: And it's like, it's not, it hasn't disappeared, but it's like, it's not this overwhelming thing that.
- 56:09[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 56:10[SPEAKER_00]: All right, that makes sense.
- 56:12[SPEAKER_00]: That makes sense.
- 56:13[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I'm like, again, didn't they, you know, her sister, Poppy's mom, they used when they deconstructed the clothes, the cancer that she got from sanding the denim went away because of the hours.
- 56:27[SPEAKER_01]: And I was like, at one point, I was like, the labor it cost her body went away, which they had set up earlier with the cut.
- 56:34[SPEAKER_00]: In our moment, and I think, I think, for so funny, in that moment, I was like,
- 56:38[SPEAKER_00]: I still don't get it, but this is great.
- 56:40[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I mean, I remember thinking that thought, yeah, I didn't get it with the cut, but this is great.
- 56:46[SPEAKER_00]: Happy for you.
- 56:47[SPEAKER_00]: Um, but yeah, I thought this movie, man, I guess, yeah, that's it.
- 56:51[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I guess if I was to say, like, oh, what is that represented?
- 56:55[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe there's something to, like,
- 56:58[SPEAKER_01]: It's interesting, this is something I thought about with during the pandemic when we all stop, like really stop, and like, there are no airplanes and like so much less cars and all that stuff.
- 57:10[SPEAKER_01]: And then all these scientists, environmental scientists talked about like, whoa, like the planet is like healing, like you could see in like the so much less smog or whatever.
- 57:20[SPEAKER_01]: And there was a little bit of like, oh, if we did truly stop,
- 57:25[SPEAKER_01]: everything then then like healing could come and like so maybe it was like like a little bit of like that sense of like there's so much damage we are doing to our own like literal bodies but also just our souls and our mental health because of the these horrible systems that were trapped in and like if we deconstructed that and like and that wasn't around anymore then like
- 57:49[SPEAKER_01]: like you know like suicide rates could go down and like all of the like different like depression and anxieties that people face like yes there are some like
- 58:02[SPEAKER_01]: you know, things that people are born with or different brain chemistry, but like a lot of that stuff is like affected by how we're living, you know, like, and sure, I sure are the chemicals and all that stuff.
- 58:15[SPEAKER_01]: But like, I don't know, I think there's just also these larger systems of power that if they were deconstructed, like we could I agree.
- 58:25[SPEAKER_01]: we would realize how much more, how much more subability that we have, you know, I don't know.
- 58:31[SPEAKER_01]: I always think about that, how like the human potential that is being squandered because we're like caught in these little traps.
- 58:41[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah.
- 58:42[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, man.
- 58:46[SPEAKER_01]: All right, well, it's time for the cause.
- 58:48[SPEAKER_01]: We rate and review films not based on how much we like them, but whether or not they help the cause of leaning black actors and Hollywood, we fully helps the cause.
- 58:55[SPEAKER_01]: We get a black fist if it's someone help the cause.
- 58:57[SPEAKER_01]: We give it a white palm.
- 58:59[SPEAKER_01]: It doesn't help the cause at all.
- 58:59[SPEAKER_01]: We don't give it anything.
- 59:01[SPEAKER_01]: Let me count out three.
- 59:02[SPEAKER_01]: We're going to raise our ratings.
- 59:03[SPEAKER_01]: I think this is trying to sneak in here to raise our rating.
- 59:07[SPEAKER_01]: Kelly is upset.
- 59:08[SPEAKER_00]: Tell her, okay, okay, I see a hand coming in.
- 59:10[SPEAKER_00]: All right, okay.
- 59:11[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, so here we go, one, two, three.
- 59:16[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
- 59:17[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
- 59:18[SPEAKER_00]: Three black face.
- 59:20[SPEAKER_01]: Tessa's trying saying that she's giving two black face, but that's not how we do it.
- 59:24[SPEAKER_01]: We get one rating each.
- 59:25[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, you know, I was a little bit hesitant because unfortunately the movie is not doing super well at the box office, but it's still like.
- 59:36[SPEAKER_01]: the fact that a black filmmaker gets to make a movie like this, you know, with like great, multiple black female leads, uh, decent budget.
- 59:47[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, with the with the with the with the decent budget.
- 59:50[SPEAKER_01]: And like, yes, like, Kiki Palmer is a huge star.
- 59:53[SPEAKER_01]: Like, all these, all these actions have been in.
- 59:55[SPEAKER_01]: just the star of a movie before, but like it's still like we're get like them to be together, you know, raising their profile simultaneously, them getting to do something that they don't normally get to do, it's all of that.
- 1:00:09[SPEAKER_01]: Black first.
- 1:00:10[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, man, same.
- 1:00:11[SPEAKER_00]: I thought, like, again, I, I, I, I, I love that black women get to start in this movie in this cool to see, you know, when it is time for a black film, it is being French about black women.
- 1:00:21[SPEAKER_00]: And again, I like the diversity in who's fronting it.
- 1:00:24[SPEAKER_00]: Also again, for whatever fault that this movie has that makes it harder for people to watch it, I think it's so cool to see, like visually, it's so stunning from the colors, the freaking wardrobe, the set pieces, it's just,
- 1:00:36[SPEAKER_00]: Look, man, I can't sit here and say everything hits, but I just think to see a black person get the chance to take a swing like this.
- 1:00:44[SPEAKER_00]: Like I, it's so honorable to me, man, it's beautiful, and I hope, I hope people come around to the movie because I would like to see more people get a chance like this.
- 1:00:55[SPEAKER_00]: I think as unique, I think our visual aesthetic is unique and like to see black people do this, it's fantastic.
- 1:01:00[SPEAKER_00]: But anyway, yep, think it was great.
