• 0:48
  feature-length episode titled New Year.
• 0:51
  New You know because happy New Year almost it's going to be
• 0:56
  near on Sunday 2023. So we wanted to shed light on
• 1:04
  one of our favorite themed movies.
• 1:08
  Yeah. You don't see a whole lot of New
• 1:10
  Year's. We're out there.
• 1:11
  Yeah, we haven't really watched a lot to be fair.
• 1:13
  Yeah. Watched Terra train and this, I
• 1:15
  think. Yeah.
• 1:16
  Well, we also watch New Year's kiss, which you.
• 1:18
  Oh my God. Yeah, that's a good one.
• 1:21
  That's also an into the dark. I hate that one.
• 1:23
  Okay. Maybe next year, no, next year.
• 1:25
  And next year is going to be a very special one, because this
• 1:30
  coming month, I'm going to be filling.
• 1:34
  Yeah, what's it called again? New Year's Eve.
• 1:38
  That's right. Look me up.
• 1:40
  The Amy Holden NBD. Yeah.
• 1:42
  Yeah no lines. This is my plan.
• 1:45
  Yeah, it's fine. It's exciting still.
• 1:49
  Yeah. Okay, so we have several
• 1:53
  announcements before we get support results.
• 1:56
  One is that we're big dummies. Uh, last week we said that we
• 2:01
  said several times that Margot Kidder is in the.
• 2:03
  Yeah. Seems extreme a cup like
• 2:05
  Chris's. I don't know where we both got
• 2:08
  this idea and we were just so confidently in.
• 2:11
  Correct. And we watched black Christmas
• 2:13
  after recording that episode and we are like that looks a lot
• 2:17
  more like Phil. Yeah.
• 2:18
  Less. Like, the bar totally fill.
• 2:20
  I woke up and I was like, yeah, it's Andrea Martin.
• 2:22
  It's not, it's not Margot Kidder.
• 2:25
  So correction there, we put the correction in our show notes,
• 2:28
  but if you listen to the episode, before we put that
• 2:30
  correction out, sorry. At least it's still a Legacy
• 2:33
  character. It is so Legacy character.
• 2:35
  Well, Lexi actress. What?
• 2:37
  Yeah, so that's that. At our next announcement, is
• 2:42
  that if you are a budget level Patron, then we are still
• 2:47
  working on, getting December's bonus, episode app to you.
• 2:51
  We had fully plan to do it this weekend.
• 2:53
  So, here's the deal. If you're in the midwest with
• 2:55
  us, I hope you're okay. I hope everything in your house
• 2:59
  is fine and that you survived the weekend.
• 3:01
  It was really rough weather wise, and we've had some other
• 3:05
  personal stuff going on. So between our house, being a
• 3:08
  full 15 degrees colder than It was set because our theater just
• 3:13
  couldn't keep up and the other stuff we're dealing with.
• 3:16
  It was just good for us to have a weekend cuddled up on the
• 3:19
  couch with her girls and surviving and surviving and
• 3:23
  just, you know, enjoying the closeness.
• 3:24
  It's what we needed. And ideally, if it hadn't
• 3:29
  dropped to negative 30, we would have recorded her bonus episode
• 3:34
  over the weekend. It's okay.
• 3:35
  We've got it. Yeah, we've got it.
• 3:37
  Figured out what we're going to do and we will get it out before
• 3:39
  the new month and then New Year? Yeah, it might be.
• 3:42
  It might literally be December 31st, but that's fine.
• 3:46
  We're gonna do it. It's gonna be a game.
• 3:48
  We decide we're gonna have a game episode.
• 3:50
  If you've been paying attention, then you are really, you know,
• 3:52
  what the game is going to be. And then I'm just going to go

• 4:57
  our website fee. So that's that.
• 5:01

• 5:10
  It's Bonus episode is going to be.
• 5:14
  Yeah, we're just going to be a rehashing of Tara fire because
• 5:17
  if you'll remember, when we covered it on the Main feed, we
• 5:19
  had special guest David, Howard Thornton, which is a total treat
• 5:24
  and absolutely no regrets at all there.
• 5:27
  But we do want to have some time or we actually spend talking
• 5:29
  about the movie and our normal format.
• 5:31
  Yeah, we didn't really talk about it.
• 5:33
  So we want to I mean we got a lot of like talking about it but
• 5:36
  yeah, I don't know. Yeah yeah.
• 5:39
  So we want to actually rehash That.
• 5:41
  Because in January, surprise surprise we're going to talk
• 5:43
  about Tara fired. See you on the Main feed, you
• 5:45
  know, that one always so that's going to be a lot of fun.
• 5:50
  So that's something that you can look forward to.
• 5:52
  And then I'm going to take the moment since we're talking about
• 5:54
  our patreon to go ahead and plug our social media right up here
• 5:56
  at the top. Let's just front with this whole
• 5:58
  thing. Yes, exactly.
• 5:59
  It's good to mix it up sometimes.
• 6:01
  Yeah. Apparently the social media
• 6:04
  experts. As it stands say that front
• 6:05
  loading, your plugs is a good idea.
• 6:08
  Okay, cool. Yeah.
• 6:09
  I don't know, I don't know. We mix it.
• 6:11
  Up because of how our flow of our show.
• 6:13
  And we're not professionals, really not at all.
• 6:16
  So you can find us on Facebook, Instagram, least favorite scary,

  See random posts that we make, just for the funsies of it and
• 6:51

• 6:59
  It's a lot of fun. Okay.
• 7:01
  Yeah. That's our announcements and it
• 7:03
  was exciting because we don't Normally have that many
• 7:05
  announcement we so it's yeah, from nothing to all that.
• 7:09
  Consider it, my light Christmas gift.
• 7:12
  Okay, well let's just get through the pole real quick.
• 7:14
  I'm just get through it. Okay, yeah, let's just get
• 7:16
  through. This is got through this.
• 7:19
  Okay. So black Christmas was last
• 7:21
  week's movie so we just wanted to know who was fucking up their
• 7:24
  future the fastest. Yeah, you have Peter smashing
• 7:28
  his piano after his terrible ceremony in that ceremony the
• 7:31
  recital recital. There you go, ceremony.
• 7:34
  I wish it was a stupid. Miss Mack drinking toilet booze.
• 7:40
  So, okay, Peter is 40% by the way. 40 percent voted for him.
• 7:44
  Oh, I thought you were just giving us the question and
• 7:46
  answers don't were telling us the result.
• 7:48
  No, I don't need to do that. Okay, Miss Mack, I thought it
• 7:51
  made sense. Okay, well Miss Mack drinking
• 7:54
  booze from the toilet is 25% in Barb.
• 7:57
  Giving kids alcohol is 35%. This is all an Instagram.
• 8:01
  Okay? On Twitter, 70% said it was
• 8:04
  Peter 10% Miss Mack with the toilet booze 20%, with Barb.
• 8:09
  Okay, I'm gonna tell you the order that I think they're
• 8:13
  fucking of their future, like the quickest, Peter definitely,
• 8:16
  because there's no way somebody isn't going to see that you're
• 8:19
  standing soon. Yeah.
• 8:20
  Officer actually involved already.
• 8:21
  Yeah. Can potentially be criminal.
• 8:24
  Oh, destruction and probably eat a fucking grand piano.
• 8:27
  That's more than five thousand dollars.
• 8:28
  We are Beyond a misdemeanor. We are into felony territory.
• 8:32
  That is years of bad fella. Not really, he's not just
• 8:36
  getting, he's not quitting the conservatory he's getting kicked
• 8:39
  out and he's going to trial. Hmm.
• 8:42
  Then we've got Barb serving alcohol to minors.
• 8:45
  Yeah, that's also equal. Yes, because it wasn't even just
• 8:48
  like the kid being like can I have some?
• 8:50
  She's like hey good yeah. Like hey yeah come have some
• 8:53
  funky like I can I'm thinking of our oldest nephew is about that
• 8:56
  age. The kids at that event.
• 8:58
  I can't imagine being like, Hey kid do you want some of this
• 9:01
  like that's terrible. Yeah and Then Miss Mack mrs.
• 9:06
  Mac I'm sure there are Health repercussions but those tend to
• 9:09
  be like slower. It's not illegal.
• 9:12
  It's just frowned upon. Yeah but I mean she can still
• 9:15
  fuck up her future by giving herself like I don't know.
• 9:17
  Whatever. Toilet diseases, exist, several
• 9:21
  yes so you know there we go. Yeah alright yeah I you know I
• 9:29
  agree with that that's good. So Peter definitely fucked
• 9:31
  himself up because he's a felon now.
• 9:33
  So yeah that's hot. That is the answer everybody
• 9:36
  agrees. Okay, now it's time to talk
• 9:39
  about the movie, okay? So we decided we wanted to talk
• 9:42
  about a New Year's movie and we went with into the darks New
• 9:45
  Year's from their first season. Yeah.
• 9:48
  And it's called New Year. New You.
• 9:50
  It premiered on December 28th. 2018.
• 9:53
  On Hulu. We watched it on.
• 9:55
  Hulu. Does the place you can watch it
• 9:57
  pretty much? The only?
• 9:58
  Yes. I think.
• 9:59
  I don't even think they released it.
• 10:01
  Yeah. Because like it's yeah.
• 10:03
  It's a serious. I wish they would hurry.
• 10:04
  Lisa physically. I would buy the surprising
• 10:06
  haven't. Yes.
• 10:08
  Well actually. Yeah.
• 10:09
  They want people to actually subscribe.
• 10:11
  It's true. I don't know.
• 10:12
  Netflix is constantly like I think I can't do stuff stuff.
• 10:17
  And yeah, so this was written by atom gains.
• 10:21
  Who did, who worked on the teleplay?
• 10:24
  Tensley, I noticed that terminology.
• 10:26
  Yeah, it sounds like, is that like the screenplay basically?
• 10:29
  Yeah, stratification, television episode?
• 10:32
  Yeah, yeah, here's the thing. Is A fake sure?
• 10:35
  It's a feature-length episode. I get that.
• 10:37
  It's part of a series but it's the same as whenever people
• 10:39
  refer to the 1990s. It is a miniseries.
• 10:43
  I'm like, it's movie. Yeah.
• 10:45
  It's just a they it's like it's moving, cut it up into episodes.
• 10:50
  Well, that was slightly different because they wanted to
• 10:53
  they were very specific. Comedy Central like bought the
• 10:56
  rights to it. Yes.
• 10:58
  And they were very specific about like we want to do movies
• 11:01
  but it needs to be written in such a way that we can split it
• 11:04
  up into Assad's for syndication. That wasn't the intention of.
• 11:07
  Yes. I'm a bit of a Futurama nerd.
• 11:10
  You all I need you to understand that I have one of the times
• 11:12
  that I have a tattoo from one of the movies.
• 11:14
  It's a it's a big fucking deal to me.
• 11:17
  So yeah, that was like a whole other thing.
• 11:21
  These and those were released as actual movies, as you know,
• 11:25
  because they own the movie. Yes.
• 11:27
  So if you watch them in like Hulu or Comedy Central, they're
• 11:30
  split up in half-hour episodes with commercials and all of
• 11:33
  that. But if you own the Movie.
• 11:35
  Like, you can just play it in, it makes sense.
• 11:37
  So, but I know that the Into The Dark episodes are technically
• 11:42
  movie scripts that they're, they're making movies.
• 11:45
  They're taking like existing scripts and just like making,
• 11:47
  they're taking existing Concepts, I think.
• 11:50
  Because the director for this was also involved in writing the
• 11:53
  teleplay. Okay, so as I said, atom gains
• 11:58
  is responsible for the story, but he also worked on the table,
• 12:00
  play with director, Sofia to call.
• 12:02
  Okay? So Sofia to call All she's the
• 12:06
  director. She went on to direct black
• 12:08
  Christmas, 2019, I thought that sounded familiar.
• 12:11
  Okay, so I am a defender of black Christmas 2019.
• 12:16
  I know. I've hinted about it and are
• 12:18
  passed to Black Christmas episodes.
• 12:20
  There's a lot of reasons for it, but I just want to let everybody
• 12:23
  know that if you want to hear more about why I'm a Defender
• 12:26
  about it, and learn more about how cool Sofia to call is.
• 12:30
  Go listen to the this ends at prom episode on black Christmas,
• 12:33
  2019. Mmm.
• 12:35
  That's what she was a guest along with her co-writer for the
• 12:38
  script April wolf. Okay.
• 12:40
  And there was a lot of really good enzyme.
• 12:42
  It was just a really good discussion about the movie that
• 12:45
  I feel like didn't get a fair shake from audiences and I'm
• 12:50
  really excited. I know it's a year away but I'm
• 12:52
  excited to talk about it. I am too.
• 12:53
  I'm just saying it's misunderstood but some of the
• 12:58
  hates warranted. Yeah.
• 13:00
  But the hate shouldn't be going towards the movie.
• 13:02
  It should be going towards the studio.
• 13:04
  Yeah, Studio. Oh, is what Screwed them up?
• 13:05
  Yeah, definitely setting it up as a black Christmas movie when
• 13:08
  it has no right being like yeah, yeah.
• 13:10
  Yeah. Different thing.
• 13:12
  It was destined to fail because of that.
• 13:14
  Yeah. I like I was already defensive
• 13:16
  of it and then I learned the backstory like during that
• 13:19
  episode and I was like, oh my God, I'm even more on the side
• 13:22
  of this movie. So definitely go listen to that.
• 13:24
  I talk. I talk about this ends up from a
• 13:26
  lot. I think BJ Colangelo and Harmony
• 13:28
  Colangelo. I really great and knowledgeable
• 13:31
  people within the horror community and Just like their
• 13:36
  show. Well let's talk about it in
• 13:38
  here. Yes.
• 13:39
  Until then until then music by Michael Montes and I couldn't
• 13:46
  find like a dedicated special effects makeup artist.
• 13:49
  I really isn't much to be had, no, not really, but the key
• 13:52
  makeup artist is Mandy R2. R2 saw to okay, starring Suki
• 13:58
  Waterhouse is Alexis Suki. Waterhouse.
• 14:03
  I like it. Yeah, I think it was Carly
• 14:05
  chalkin is Danielle Williams Kirby.
• 14:09
  Howell Baptiste, is Kayla. Did she look familiar to you?
• 14:12
  Travis good place. Yes, she's a cheat.
• 14:14
  He's girlfriend. She's Australian Girlfriend.
• 14:17
  Yes, that's what I thought. Okay, Shelly.
• 14:19
  Wait, what's her natural accent than she actually Australian or
• 14:22
  no? So, she did an Australian
• 14:25
  accent. Yeah.
• 14:25
  Or a good place? Okay.
• 14:27
  And I'm American. Uh-huh.
• 14:28
  So I never caught anything weird about it.
• 14:31
  Was I on. Yeah, I'm on the good place
• 14:33
  subreddit, and people are like her.
• 14:34
  Accents, really distracting and I'm like, okay, mate, cool.
• 14:38
  Sorry for you. My untrained ear is finally and
• 14:45
  then Melissa Berglund is Chloe. Okay.
• 14:48
  Okay, so this will come as no surprise to anybody but I don't
• 14:52
  have a budget box office. I don't think that they have the
• 14:55
  budgets for any of these movies list.
• 14:58
  However, yeah, I did read an interview that Sofia to called
• 15:02
  did with polygons, okay? And I will I'm editing.
• 15:06
  So I will try to remember to put it in the show notes, a link to
• 15:09
  the interview because I feel like it's interesting and she
• 15:12
  talked about this is the first movie that she really had like a
• 15:16
  decent budget for barricaded Indie stuff beforehand.
• 15:19
  Well, it's still Blum House. Yes, it's still Blum House.
• 15:22
  So it's still like I by our standards it's still going to be
• 15:25
  bugged head. Yeah but that's like that's
• 15:27
  good. Budget for an indie movie.
• 15:30
  Yes. If you're coming from an indie
• 15:31
  background like self-funded to like Blum House Shit.
• 15:35
  You know. That's a big step up.
• 15:37
  Yes. I did get the worldwide gross
• 15:39
  for one of these for the Indie movie.
• 15:41
  She did right before this. It's called Always shine her
• 15:44
  worldwide gross for that was seventeen thousand dollars.
• 15:47
  Okay. Which I don't expect it that
• 15:49
  way. Yeah, with an indie, if you
• 15:51
  don't have like a theatrical release, that's always going to
• 15:53
  know your numbers. Hi.
• 15:55
  If I released a movie and I made 17 thousand dollars off of it.
• 15:58
  I would be stoked. Exactly amazing.
• 16:01
  All right, here is the thing, we talked about the stuff we poke.
• 16:04
  Finite movies, but we fully acknowledge neither of us.
• 16:07
  Has ever made a movie and we have all of the respect for the
• 16:10
  makers of their. It's tough.
• 16:12
  I can tell. Yes, we laugh at ourselves all
• 16:14
  the time. Yeah.
• 16:15
  This is not intended to be a mean-spirited pot.
• 16:18
  No. No.
• 16:19
  By any means. So yeah.
• 16:21
  I just I I got that number. I thought it was interesting to
• 16:24
  pull so that we kind of have an idea where she's coming from
• 16:27
  with that. Okay, cool.
• 16:28
  Yeah. On IMDb this episode of into the
• 16:32
  dark currently holds a Seven out of ten that's lower than I
• 16:36
  thought I'd be. Yes.
• 16:37
  And when we get to user reviews, now there's a reason.
• 16:42
  Yeah, I'm going to talk about because this is one of those
• 16:46
  where I really struggled to find her.
• 16:47
  I knew going into this that you liked this movie.
• 16:50
  So, I was trying to find a more negative review.
• 16:52
  Yeah. And it's one of those much, like
• 16:55
  Wes. Craven's, New Nightmare where I
• 16:57
  struggled to find a review that wasn't missing a lot of the
• 17:01
  point. Yeah.
• 17:02
  Like, what, it's actually like someone serious and not Just
• 17:04
  kind of like complaining about one part of the moving.
• 17:07
  Yes, exactly. I did pull three movies from
• 17:12
  2018, and I don't have a running theme between the three of them,
• 17:16
  but I picked them based on their relation to the movie, as my
• 17:19
  brains, off it, okay, where any of them into the dark movies,
• 17:23
  because there was problem now out of those that came out.
• 17:25
  No. Yeah.
• 17:26
  This is the fourth that year. I think.
• 17:28
  Okay. So we had Halloween Thanksgiving
• 17:30
  Christmas and the New Year's okay?
• 17:32
  Yeah, yeah, okay. So Incident in ghosts, land.
• 17:37
  Oh, okay. That came out, June 22nd of
• 17:40
  2018. I don't have a budget for it,
• 17:42
  but I have a worldwide gross of 5.6 million.
• 17:45
  That's a fucked up movie? Yes.
• 17:47
  And I really fucking scary. Yes, it's a pretty good movie.
• 17:50
  It's got a six point four out of ten.
• 17:51
  On IMDb why I ended up picking that.
• 17:55
  I think. I know why I'm a facial scar.
• 17:57
  Yeah, yes. So Alexis scarring in this movie
• 18:02
  and New Year, New, You You is kind of significant to her
• 18:06
  character development, especially her aspirations in an
• 18:09
  actress. And unfortunately, one of the
• 18:10
  lead actresses and incident in a ghost land suffered from facial
• 18:15
  scarring, due to unsafe stunt conditions during the filming
• 18:19
  actually went through. A, it was, it was a glass door,
• 18:23
  I think is what it was, and they don't have the right kind of
• 18:26
  safety clasp. And it wasn't like that Sugar.
• 18:28
  Yeah, that would just normally. This is me.
• 18:30
  Yeah, and she ended up cutting herself and and this is going to
• 18:34
  tie in The reviews I talk about later.
• 18:36
  Those facial scarring has cost her work.
• 18:39
  Yeah. So she sued the director for
• 18:41
  that to remember that. Yeah, so that's the thing, you
• 18:44
  know? And that's a whole thing we
• 18:46
  could get into a full topic about, but it, it's pretty
• 18:49
  messed up. And I feel really sorry for her
• 18:51
  and it's also very relevant to what we're going to be talking
• 18:54
  about with this movie. Yeah, definitely.
• 18:55
  I can see the connection at the second movie.
• 18:59
  Unfriended dark web. Hey.
• 19:00
  Oh, yeah. So that's the sequel right, yes?
• 19:03
  Okay, yeah. Which the movie?
• 19:04
  I I guess it's self. This one isn't directly related
• 19:07
  to new year, new you? But the first one talking about
• 19:10
  bullying. Yeah.
• 19:11
  Very good definitely. Yeah.
• 19:14
  That's a good movie to yeah. All right, what's the budget?
• 19:17
  Yeah, it came out July 20th. 2018.
• 19:21
  It had an estimated budget of 1 million dollars in grossed about
• 19:24
  16 million. We were one of those 16 million
• 19:28
  people. Yes, we definitely were and it
• 19:31
  currently holds a 6 out of 10 on IMDb not bad.
• 19:34
  Yeah. I like that one.
• 19:35
  I think it's weird. As a sequel.
• 19:37
  To the first one, where the first one was definitely
• 19:40
  Supernatural and this one was much more real world based.
• 19:43
  I like it, though. I was different.
• 19:45
  They're not like, bound to the original, it's an anthology
• 19:48
  series. Yes.
• 19:49
  And I think that's the way an anthology series needs to be
• 19:51
  done. You have something of a Common
• 19:54
  Thread. It can be a different genre as
• 19:56
  long as the so has like the tie with yeah, Peter screen.
• 19:59
  Absolutely. Yeah.
• 20:00
  I'm surprised that there's some more of those.
• 20:01
  Yeah. And we're definitely going to be
• 20:03
  talking about that at. So hey, yeah, and the third
• 20:06
  movie, I picked Okay. Okay.
• 20:12
  Sorry, I can't read my handwriting Cruz.
• 20:13
  I got ya. I thought I wrote corn could you
• 20:20
  didn't make any sense? No, the third movie is cam cam,
• 20:26
  which talks a lot about like societal pressures.
• 20:28
  The faces you put on what you receive back from the people.
• 20:33
  You interact with based on that. It's a weird movie.
• 20:36
  I really like it. And I want to cover it at some
• 20:38
  point because it's got a really Interesting backstory to it.
• 20:41
  I like the lead actress and I think the story itself is pretty
• 20:46
  engaging. It was good.
• 20:48
  I was very impressed with it. So that came out in November
• 20:50
  16th. 2018 don't have a budget or a gross for it.
• 20:54
  I think that, that was straight to streaming.
• 20:56
  Yeah, and it has a five point nine out of ten on IMDb, which I
• 21:00
  feel is unfortunate but not totally unexpected because it is
• 21:06
  Weird. Yeah, you're going to be asking
• 21:08
  questions after watching it. Yes.
• 21:10
  Because I asked you as like, what the fuck?
• 21:11
  Yeah. And well, because you fell
• 21:13
  asleep when we were watching it together.
• 21:15
  I stayed up to finish the end of it.
• 21:17
  And so, I had a lot of time to process a goat online discussion
• 21:20
  boards, learn a little bit about the backstory of it and so when
• 21:24
  you re like with the next day, you're like, I want to finish
• 21:26
  the movie and then you're like, hey what?
• 21:31
  I had done all of the research and not what I was expecting
• 21:35
  when I My sign up for cam. It's a good movie though.
• 21:38
  Yeah, it really is a good movie. Okay.
• 21:41
  So those are my three comparisons.
• 21:43
  So yeah, we know it's bugged head.
• 21:46
  It's bugged head but that's kind of Blum houses whole shtick.
• 21:49
  Yeah, so especially if it's like a TV movie.
• 21:51
  Yes. Okay so I have one tag line.
• 21:55
  I figured it was on the poster. Okay, what is it ring in the New
• 21:58
  Year? Like it's your last Hey, maybe
• 22:03
  that's kind of like uninspired, right?
• 22:05
  Yeah, it's generic. I don't know.
• 22:07
  I feel like they could have done something a little bit more
• 22:11
  Mantra. Like with the whole I was
• 22:13
  expecting a mantra right? Okay.
• 22:17
  Like are we doing the tagline? No, no, no, no.
• 22:22
  I was gonna think of a tag line for the movie and supposed to be
• 22:25
  doing at some point kind of but also they saw her episode of
• 22:29
  session Yeah, so I mean it's not the worst tagline we've ever
• 22:34
  read but like you said it's kind of fun inspired.
• 22:37
  Like we need something to put at the top of the poster.
• 22:41
  Yeah and make it themed. Yeah.
• 22:44
  Okay I've got a few fun facts. Okay.
• 22:47
  Principal photography took about 15 days between July and August
• 22:51
  of 2018, which I always find it. Interesting when filming and
• 22:55
  photography takes such a short amount of time, for like a movie
• 22:59
  also filming a winter movie. And then Of the summer.
• 23:03
  It does make me feel a little bit better about Danielle's
• 23:06
  pajama situation. Yeah, because I'm covered head
• 23:09
  to toe right now and I was freezing watching her.
• 23:11
  Yeah, definitely. Okay, so the rest of this is all
• 23:15
  coming from the polygon interview with director and
• 23:19
  writers if you have to call. Okay, so she really wanted to
• 23:24
  examine like the culture that has been created around self
• 23:28
  care and social media influence. So she definitely acknowledges
• 23:33
  the need for self care and how important it is.
• 23:36
  But the way that it's often talked about, in portrayed and
• 23:39
  social media, media can at times, missed the point entirely
• 23:44
  to the extent. That it becomes almost a
• 23:46
  narcissistic, like, oh, I'm gonna buy organic, and then you
• 23:50
  see all of these videos clips reels, tick-tocks, whatever of,
• 23:55
  you know, people doing like super clean eating and you're
• 23:58
  like, oh my God, am I doing enough?
• 23:59
  And then it's like, you know, something real Sick, exactly.
• 24:02
  They're like putting on a show and then they go and they eat
• 24:05
  Oreos become. Well, even if they do eat
• 24:08
  completely clean, that's a lot of mental energy.
• 24:11
  It's a lot of financial responsibility to eat a certain
• 24:14
  way. It's a lot of prep time.
• 24:16
  That's involved. If you're going to be cooking
• 24:18
  all of these things from scratch, it just it.
• 24:21
  So it's not as simple as like your again I can do it.
• 24:24
  Yeah. It's and when you have to look
• 24:27
  at Maslow's hierarchy of needs sometimes, just eating is going
• 24:30
  to be important. Orton then.
• 24:32
  Like, eating this very special super healthy diet.
• 24:35
  Exactly. Yeah, when she also wanted to
• 24:38
  look at like social media influence and when she was cast,
• 24:41
  when she was figuring out the cast for this, it's funny that
• 24:45
  Suki Waterhouse actually had a lot, like significantly more
• 24:50
  followers than Carly chalkin. Considering we start off the
• 24:53
  movie with Danielle being like this huge influential.
• 24:56
  That's about to get a TV show, and Alexis being jealous and
• 25:01
  see, Sing like what her dreams could have been.
• 25:03
  And she really asked the cast to examine their relationship with
• 25:07
  social media, Fame, self-care, all of that shoe.
• 25:11
  She was like, it's going to be really uncomfortable for you to
• 25:13
  kind of Take a hit at yourself with this.
• 25:17
  Are these people like big and famous or something and I don't,
• 25:21
  I'm gonna be honest. I didn't look at their other
• 25:24
  filmography is I'm not familiar with owing anything else.
• 25:26
  I've looked up Alexis a few times and I've always been like
• 25:30
  I'm surprised. She's not in more things.
• 25:33
  Yeah. Because I feel like she does a
• 25:34
  decent job in this. Yeah.
• 25:36
  I think she does too. Yeah so okay.
• 25:42
  They really wanted to focus on the importance of mirrors and
• 25:44
  this Us as well. Because we've got the whole like
• 25:47
  being viewed through a lens of social media, and television,
• 25:51
  and all of that. Plus the face that you put on
• 25:53
  for the people around you. So the mirrors were really
• 25:57
  important every shot with a mirror or reflection and this
• 26:00
  movie was intentional. Every shot with a mirror is
• 26:03
  basically a Lexus staring at it with a blank face and everybody
• 26:06
  being freaked out. Not actually, I was paying
• 26:10
  really close attention because I read that interview before we
• 26:14
  watch this. To take notes.
• 26:15
  I was paying really close attention.
• 26:17
  I didn't necessarily take full notes but like the first time we
• 26:20
  see her in the mirror in the house is when she's taking that
• 26:24
  bath and when she looks into the mirror her eyes and mouth are
• 26:28
  covered. Oh really?
• 26:29
  Yeah, so you don't see like her full face.
• 26:32
  Okay. And then, there's like some
• 26:33
  shots when they're doing the dance to TLC that we get a
• 26:37
  couple of shots, Alexis looking a little bit like you do.
• 26:43
  A little bit frustrated because she knows what's coming next.
• 26:46
  And then we get a couple shots of Danielle like looking, that's
• 26:49
  what I'm talking about Lee. Yeah, over at Alexis she's like
• 26:52
  what the fuck is wrong with the likes?
• 26:53
  Which is what you do. But it's not even.
• 26:56
  What the fuck is wrong, but it's more like, what are you about to
• 27:00
  do to me? Yeah, and I'm more like good
• 27:01
  somewhere narcissistic kind of tone to it, which we don't see
• 27:04
  in their face on directions to the camera, this movie.
• 27:08
  It's tagline is just like passive-aggressive
• 27:12
  passive-aggressive. And that's it.
• 27:16
  And there was also some discussion during the interview
• 27:19
  about being a female director and how important that feels to
• 27:23
  her and she said, I'm really grateful that I get to be a part
• 27:27
  of this. I'm really grateful that Blum
• 27:28
  House is doing work to bring in female directors because she
• 27:32
  looked at the list of directors and she was excited about how
• 27:35
  many female directors are involved, especially in the,
• 27:37
  into the dark series and this cast is all female.
• 27:43
  Yeah, I noticed but you know, it's cool.
• 27:46
  But at the same time, she doesn't want that to be like,
• 27:49
  it's stick. Yeah, it does.
• 27:50
  He have questions of it? It doesn't.
• 27:52
  And I think they even throw in a line at one point where Kayla
• 27:55
  saying like, oh, just because a woman is involved, doesn't make
• 27:58
  it like inherently. I like that.
• 27:59
  I feel like the director liked or the writer injecting their
• 28:02
  own ideology. Very tongue-in-cheek, like, Hey,
• 28:05
  we're not doing this, just to be feminist.
• 28:07
  Yeah, that's not the point of this.
• 28:09
  Yeah. No, I like and I feel like
• 28:11
  considering her very. Next movie.
• 28:13
  Is Black Christmas. I feel like that's really
• 28:15
  important. Don't yeah, definitely.
• 28:16
  Yeah, that's it for me. Fun facts.
• 28:18
  Okay. Travis.
• 28:21
  Yes. What would you say?
• 28:23
  The good, the bad, the ugly, and the Absurd are of this movie and
• 28:27
  what would be your pre discussion ranking out of son?
• 28:31
  Okay? So the good for this, I enjoy
• 28:36
  the tension in this movie. I feel like this is, like a
• 28:39
  super tense movie almost from the beginning.
• 28:41
  Like, Alexis is intense immediately.
• 28:44
  Yes, like she's intimidating. I know.
• 28:47
  Something's going to happen because we started off with
• 28:49
  that. Like, Here of a flashback of
• 28:51
  tragic event. It's almost feels like, like
• 28:55
  prom night because like it's revenge for past into the, but
• 29:01
  like all of these like, socially awkward and since has between
• 29:05
  her and Danielle, like it's like saying things that you want to
• 29:09
  say, I like to call people out on their bullshit and like just
• 29:12
  putting them in a spot where they squirm, I guess just fun to
• 29:15
  see it. Play out with some buddies like
• 29:16
  so full of shit. Yes I loved it.
• 29:19
  The bad. For this.
• 29:26
  I think the they're not they're not very subtle with the way
• 29:30
  that they do the social media thing.
• 29:32
  Like, I think that was the thing that we were talking about when
• 29:33
  we were talking with Brandon Christensen when he was doing
• 29:37
  like his superheroes like when they were doing their show and I
• 29:41
  was thinking about soup. Yeah you're watching this
• 29:43
  because I think that he's, if I remember correctly, I think what
• 29:46
  he was saying is he wanted to make them produce content.
• 29:50
  He has to write that content as if he's like them.
• 29:52
  But also make it something that's not like super bad, but
• 29:55
  also kind of like playing into the tropes that are like out
• 29:58
  there on the internet. Yeah.
• 30:00
  This one right here. Just felt like it was too on the
• 30:02
  nose with. It wasn't like like that it was
• 30:05
  really choppy editing. You could tell I was just like
• 30:07
  people that didn't really know what they were doing.
• 30:08
  I feel like they were trying to emphasize that I don't want that
• 30:11
  really got me is that I don't know when Instagram will I've
• 30:14
  started being a thing but I would have thought it existed by
• 30:18
  this point. So every time she was recording
• 30:20
  A video. I was thinking it was live
• 30:22
  Honestly, though. If I was a social-media
• 30:24
  influencer, I would probably pre-record stuff and then post
• 30:28
  it as a story or video or whatever.
• 30:30
  The lives, I feel like are usually chaotic you don't know
• 30:34
  unpredictable and you don't know what's going to happen.
• 30:36
  Planned, you think they're playing, okay?
• 30:39
  Yes. And if you see like a lot of
• 30:42
  times, when I think of the context of an Instagram live,
• 30:44
  it's because they have a special guest who is another
• 30:46
  social-media influencer, sometimes I've seen the most
• 30:49
  Wild On Instagram alive. What is what is that movie?
• 30:54
  We watched, It's really fucked up.
• 30:55
  It was on shutter it stream. No.
• 30:59
  No it involved. It starts off like they're
• 31:03
  talking about dog murders. And the whole thing is that
• 31:07
  she's like a social-media influencer and her house is
• 31:11
  being attacked. Her sister sick.
• 31:14
  Fuck is that? But like that was their whole
• 31:17
  thing was that they were like we're supposed to be doing a
• 31:19
  live tonight. I remember that meant she wasn't
• 31:21
  there for it. Yeah I don't remember the name
• 31:24
  of that movie. Yeah yeah.
• 31:26
  Oh hashtag not shocked. It's like it's social media
• 31:33
  links. Oh we're just talking about
• 31:35
  Shucks. Yes, you're right, shut up.
• 31:37
  Yeah, yeah, yeah, watch us or listen to us age live on
• 31:43
  audience right here. Should I say shit sometimes but
• 31:48
  sometimes when I say sure, come like tally.
• 31:50
  Shook water off of her body after her best.
• 31:53
  She shook she shook. Yeah.
• 31:56
  Okay. So that's that's a good maybe
• 31:59
  but you know very much elements of this to you.
• 32:02
  Yeah. Okay.
• 32:04
  The ugly. So ugly people in this.
• 32:12
  Everybody super toxic. Even like the person that's
• 32:14
  super like self-righteous about the whole thing is like she's
• 32:18
  using something that she's almost like taking advantage of
• 32:23
  her friends, 22 like Kind of motivate them to do her will
• 32:28
  because like I feel like she just wants personal Revenge from
• 32:32
  Danielle like she doesn't she's using this whole thing is like a
• 32:35
  well we got 100% know what happened.
• 32:39
  Yeah I wish that we would have liked I always had something
• 32:42
  spelled out like the ambiguity of it and went through the
• 32:46
  movie. Okay.
• 32:46
  Normally I do but this time maybe just a little bit more.
• 32:50
  Okay and the Absurd The fucking scene where they open the
• 32:57
  elevator door and they Caleb kicks Chloe in the stomach.
• 33:02
  Yeah, it's on elevator babe. It's garage a garage door.
• 33:05
  Die said elevator? Yeah, the garage door.
• 33:09
  We've been watching a lot of Christmas movies and if you
• 33:11
  don't watch cheesy lifetime, Christmas movies, then you
• 33:14
  probably don't know. Elevators are super important to
• 33:18
  Christmas time. There's like a whole strategy of
• 33:20
  elevator Christmas music and movies.
• 33:22
  So yeah, it's a thing it's kind of influence in my mind here but
• 33:26
  that scene right there. Like I forget how funny I get
• 33:29
  every time I watch it so funny, but I got bust out laughing
• 33:32
  every single time. So.
• 33:34
  Okay. All that said, I think that I
• 33:38
  would give this like a 7.5. Okay?
• 33:43
  I think 7.5. Sounds right to me.
• 33:45
  Okay, so the same, yes, this is one that we watch outside of the
• 33:49
  season. So what should I do you like
• 33:51
  that months ago? Yeah, I feel like that says
• 33:53
  something. Yeah, so the good for me, I like
• 33:58
  the Nuance involved in this. I feel like the female
• 34:02
  friendships feel real and that there's connection and
• 34:08
  disconnection between the friend group, but they just kind of
• 34:11
  fall right back. Into it there on New Year's Eve.
• 34:14
  You know there's moments where like somebody will refer to
• 34:17
  something and one person understands what they're talking
• 34:19
  about but the other two don't which is just very real to life.
• 34:23
  That's true. That's yeah, like dialogue plays
• 34:26
  out pretty realistically here. Yeah and it's not necessarily
• 34:28
  good or bad, that's just the nature of life.
• 34:30
  People aren't necessarily going to be up each other's asses day
• 34:34
  in and day out for years and years and years.
• 34:37
  So, it felt very realistic to me.
• 34:39
  I also liked the Kind of nudging, it toxic positivity
• 34:46
  because I feel like that's an important thing to talk about.
• 34:51
  So it's it's done. Well, to me, I think, like, with
• 34:57
  the mantras and the visualization and all of that
• 35:01
  because those are very real like therapy techniques.
• 35:04
  Yeah, and here, we're going to come in with my trauma Capital.
• 35:08
  TTM background where I've been to therapy and stuff.
• 35:12
  And there are some very real techniques that are used here
• 35:15
  where you talk about visualization because you have
• 35:17
  to make a plan for what you want to do.
• 35:18
  You've got to figure out what it is that you want to achieve and
• 35:21
  then you work backwards from there to figure out the steps to
• 35:24
  do it. Yeah.
• 35:25
  You focus on the successes in the positives because sometimes
• 35:29
  you have to train your brain to stop being as stupid as it is
• 35:33
  to, you know, recognize the good things as well.
• 35:37
  Yeah, you know, I went through a full year of every day.
• 35:43
  I was like, writing down at least one if not three positive
• 35:48
  things that happened to me that day because my brain tends to
• 35:52
  hyper focus on the negative. Did that exercise?
• 35:57
  Make me Focus Less on the - no but it did help me focus on the
• 36:01
  positive 2. Yeah.
• 36:03
  So it at least brought some balance and it has made me a
• 36:07
  little bit better about acknowledging the good things
• 36:09
  that are going on in my life. So it those these are very real
• 36:13
  techniques but when they're like push forth by somebody who like
• 36:18
  doesn't give a shit or doesn't know what she's talking about.
• 36:21
  Doesn't give a shit. Doesn't know what she's talking
• 36:23
  about. Doesn't have the proper
• 36:24
  training. Meaning may or may not have had
• 36:27
  these actual experiences, we don't know enough about her
• 36:30
  background and I don't want to speculate just based off of, you
• 36:33
  know, Alexis is biased recounting of their childhood.
• 36:37
  I I think that it can become very dangerous when people that
• 36:42
  don't necessarily have the right background or on a platform and
• 36:47
  you and I are very careful about what, you know, not that our
• 36:49
  platform is huge, it's not anywhere.
• 36:52
  No one get well Danielle but I feel like you and I are very
• 36:56
  careful. If you know we say something
• 36:57
  that feels a little bit too off the cuff that were like, hey,
• 37:01
  let's edit that out because that might not be the message we want
• 37:04
  to send. Yeah, a lot of times, I feel
• 37:06
  like we try our best to just talk from our place of her.
• 37:09
  Our own personal experience. And if we feel in reflection
• 37:12
  that something might spread more harm than good or entertainment,
• 37:17
  we cut it out because that's not what we want to do.
• 37:20
  Yeah. And that's not always the case
• 37:22
  with social media and people like this that are meant to be
• 37:26
  like wellness gurus, because that's not Anything.
• 37:31
  That's not a job that is. What is the word I'm looking
• 37:36
  for? Not policed the like governed.
• 37:38
  The it doesn't have a governing body.
• 37:39
  You know, you don't have licenses or CEUs or anything
• 37:42
  like that, better required and I feel like for an hour and a
• 37:46
  half, it did a really good nuanced.
• 37:49
  Take on all of that stuff. Yeah I would agree the bad.
• 37:55
  It's a little bit naive to me that they wrote it that the only
• 38:01
  way Alexis felt she could get revenge is to get Danielle to To
• 38:05
  what she did on screen because it obviously would have turned
• 38:08
  exactly the way that Danielle. You know, did turn it.
• 38:13
  We're like okay, I will admit to things I've done but I'm going
• 38:16
  to spin it in a way that you know, not as bad for me.
• 38:20
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 38:21
  Instead of what Danielle says could have happened which is 0.
• 38:26
  Alexis is gonna go spread these rumors about me.
• 38:30
  Yeah. If Alexis had gotten enough
• 38:33
  people together and been like hey let's go online and share
• 38:35
  our stories about Danielle. That's true.
• 38:39
  That's the thing that does happen.
• 38:40
  Yeah, I guess it depends on how big you are, you know.
• 38:43
  But that's also going to go into my ugly here.
• 38:45
  Is that none of this is good, like bullying people.
• 38:52
  So that way they feel bad about themselves and they bullied this
• 38:58
  girl, Kelsey until she killed herself and it's horrific and
• 39:04
  then the Absurd. Yeah.
• 39:07
  As a person with a lot of scars, the scarring Alexis's face,
• 39:15
  like, I appreciate it, that it was very dark, still all that.
• 39:18
  It was clearly like textured. I think that was, I don't
• 39:22
  understand the shape of it. It's what was confusing.
• 39:25
  What happened to her, like? It looks like when I'm
• 39:28
  addressing an envelope and I want to make it fancy.
• 39:30
  So, like, underneath the name, I do, like my little sewer lines.
• 39:34
  It looks like, yeah. And I get that scars.
• 39:37
  Can sometimes be weird shapes. I just thought didn't do it
• 39:41
  takes weapon. It looks like they wanted to
• 39:45
  have a scar that could still be cute.
• 39:48
  Yeah, okay. You know what I mean?
• 39:49
  So I like we're gonna make it go with the shape of her face.
• 39:53
  Okay. Yeah.
• 39:54
  Let's do that. I don't think it makes her look
• 39:55
  bad at all either. I don't either doesn't.
• 39:58
  Yeah, but, you know, it, it is still a facial scar in that Soul
• 40:03
  other thing like we talked about before it can Absolutely,
• 40:07
  especially as a woman be with, you know, public presenting
• 40:16
  aspirations. It can absolutely be everything
• 40:20
  you have to work past and it can 100% be traumatic.
• 40:24
  I'm not saying that. I just also feel like the scar
• 40:27
  itself was very clean. That's looking, I got you in a
• 40:32
  way that has not matched my personal experiences.
• 40:36
  Yeah, I guess that's fair. Okay, so 7.5.
• 40:41
  Yep. That is starting average.
• 40:43
  All right, cool. Okay.
• 40:46
  All right, you ready? Yes, I am ready.
• 40:48
  All right, so we're starting off.
• 40:51
  It is sometime in the past. We see a pool and a body
• 40:56
  floating in it. It's like very Quick Cuts.
• 41:01
  This is basically all we get to see of anything from that night.
• 41:06
  It's Like basically the shot replay throughout the movie.
• 41:09
  Yeah. A little girl saying, Help Me
• 41:11
  running jumping through the window and it's three little
• 41:14
  blond girls so we don't really know who is who?
• 41:16
  Yeah. So, we cut to a YouTube video.
• 41:20
  It's get well Danielle, she announces that she's going to be
• 41:23
  getting her own show. We pull out from the screen and
• 41:27
  it's actually Alexis and Cara. The girl she babysits are
• 41:32
  watching it car is very obsessed with get while Danielle wants to
• 41:35
  be just like her is totally up her butt in the way
• 41:39
  ten-year-olds tend to be with things like this and she's like
• 41:45
  I can't believe that you're gonna spend New Year's with her
• 41:47
  and Alexis is clearly over it. Yeah.
• 41:50
  But this kid can't read the room like they they just don't really
• 41:53
  know. She's 10 I know she's sitting.
• 41:55
  That's how what can your old camera video?
• 41:57
  The 10 year olds like wow, why are you still acting or is it
• 42:00
  because of your scar is like come on your tin.
• 42:03
  Like you should know better than to just ask about something like
• 42:06
  that. Right.
• 42:07
  No, I feel like that's on-brand for a ten-year-old.
• 42:09
  It's just like hoof. She's like yeah, I don't know
• 42:13
  maybe if people use so like my acting.
• 42:15
  Yeah, people like my acting before you know this disfiguring
• 42:18
  scar. Thanks for bringing it up Cara.
• 42:23
  So Alexis drives out to The house, the power is off.
• 42:28
  The power goes off in this house of a lot Powers is in a very bad
• 42:31
  state. It makes me feel a little bit
• 42:34
  better because these people are clearly loaded.
• 42:36
  It's a very, very nice house. It's nice to see that every
• 42:38
  house has its quirks. This is why these people are so
• 42:41
  rich that they're moving out because the power keeps going on
• 42:44
  and they can't pay for an electrician.
• 42:45
  They're like fuck it let's just buy a new mansion.
• 42:48
  They are so rich that Alexis hasn't lived here since the
• 42:50
  accident that happened when she was 16 they just had yeah yeah I
• 42:54
  guess it's time to say Ellen. Now.
• 42:56
  Yeah, are cancer and there between mid to late 20s now.
• 43:00
  So it has been over 10 years since Alexis has been in this
• 43:03
  house, that's how rich they are. They have kept this house this
• 43:07
  entire time. So fucked up, man.
• 43:11
  And they like, even completely renovated the house.
• 43:13
  After the incident happened, even though Alexis was in still
• 43:16
  in there, it's so nice. Yes, Alexis, taking a bath.
• 43:20
  And oh my God, I want. Yeah.
• 43:22
  Okay, there's a sauna here. First of all, that she's like,
• 43:27
  preheating, so, I mean it's ready to go and then she like
• 43:30
  has this nice luxurious bath and this bathtub that has like a
• 43:34
  full wall window out into the forest or Garden or whatever the
• 43:39
  fuck. It is amazing.
• 43:40
  Yeah. And she's in some milky shit
• 43:42
  that Instagram people take baths, and I don't know.
• 43:47
  Yeah, yeah. So it's all really nice like and
• 43:51
  she's coming from a place of privilege in this regard total,
• 43:56
  even though like she has not met her career aspiration.
• 43:59
  She's a babysitter. She's play for a hosting job.
• 44:01
  She didn't finish school. All of that.
• 44:04
  Not negated by the fact that she Irish has money but she does
• 44:08
  have a bit more of a safety net than Other people do like Kayla
• 44:13
  and Chloe who we cut through now.
• 44:16
  Yeah we're on their way over there talking about how how
• 44:19
  nervous they are about the whole thing because you get a vibe
• 44:23
  that something big is going to be happening.
• 44:25
  Yeah, so the first time you're watching this, all this feels
• 44:27
  very double entendre. Like they're all just very
• 44:29
  nervous to be seeing Danielle again for the first time in a
• 44:31
  long time, is how it seems. Like they're not even sure she's
• 44:34
  going to show up Kayla's driving, she's struggling to be
• 44:37
  able to see in the rain. And Chloe is looking at five
• 44:39
  thousand dollar booze and And I relate so hard.
• 44:43
  There's I consistently pull up the love out and Page.
• 44:47
  There's a pair of foods. They have that I want, how much,
• 44:50
  oh, 5,000 or Figures, it's not 5,000.
• 44:54
  But one, it's more than that, pretty Travis.
• 44:58
  It doesn't matter. I'm not buying them until we are
• 45:01
  rich. So, get to work on that.
• 45:04
  Yes, yes. But yeah.
• 45:11
  So thank you get the car breaks down conveniently right in front
• 45:14
  of the house, I know right. Yeah.
• 45:16
  They have a very funny conversation about like oh you
• 45:19
  only have one umbrella she's like, who has two umbrellas in
• 45:22
  their car and then she's like, this is why we don't buy 5,000
• 45:26
  dollar boots. Khloe, I love it.
• 45:28
  It feels like a very real conversation.
• 45:30
  Yeah. This is like a totally real
• 45:31
  movie here. Yeah.
• 45:33
  So they're inside, Isis will love Alexis is outfit for the
• 45:37
  moment to I know you've got a Nice.
• 45:39
  Cut out on the back of it. I like the boots paired with it.
• 45:42
  It it goes away like almost a meeting.
• 45:44
  Yes. They have like five outfit
• 45:47
  changes throughout the night. It's excessive.
• 45:49
  And if this is what it means to be friends with an influencer it
• 45:52
  sounds exhausting but if all of the outfits get documented I'm
• 45:55
  okay with that. I mean it's sometimes I save my
• 45:58
  favorite outfits, if I think people won't see him, it's they
• 46:01
  start off with the like fancy formal attire and then a like
• 46:05
  quickly devolves in the pajamas more and more each time.
• 46:09
  A new pair of like a piece of these aren't Jammy enough.
• 46:13
  We need to get you a mirror. Let's Jam.
• 46:17
  So they are in the kitchen talk drinking champagne out of
• 46:23
  margarita glasses. There's no way.
• 46:26
  There's no way in a house that has a sauna that they don't have
• 46:30
  champagne. This drives me crazy.
• 46:33
  If you want the margarita glasses, make a fucking
• 46:36
  Margarita. I like I don't care that it's
• 46:39
  New Years and you're supposed to have champagne match.
• 46:42
  The drink. We're yeah, it's annoying to me.
• 46:46
  Yeah. It's whatever.
• 46:48
  You know, she died. I just like to imagine that she
• 46:51
  just doesn't give a fuck cuz you know what?
• 46:52
  Here's the thing. Yeah we have extensive drink,
• 46:56
  we're in our house and we were nowhere near this level of was
• 47:00
  right. You know what glasses?
• 47:02
  We do have champagne flutes. You know what glasses?
• 47:05
  We don't have margarita glasses. Do we know have one?
• 47:10
  No, I drink those out of one of our fancier beer glasses, that
• 47:14
  is vaguely shaped like a margarita glass.
• 47:17
  Awesome. Hell?
• 47:18
  Yeah, so Chucky. So, they're talking about and
• 47:27
  Danielle's gonna show up or not talking about how she's been
• 47:30
  taking pictures with Leo DiCaprio.
• 47:32
  Yeah, it's so fucking bullshit. There's no way.
• 47:34
  Somebody who's got, like a mildly successful YouTube
• 47:38
  channel would be hanging out with Leo, right?
• 47:41
  I don't know. Maybe, maybe the picture wasn't
• 47:45
  like, actually, like, oh, we're friends.
• 47:47
  Maybe it was that way. If they ran an event together
• 47:48
  and took a picture go, think about people we have pictures
• 47:51
  with. It's not always like wife is
• 47:52
  like a wax museum. Well he's she's she's pretending
• 47:56
  to take pictures with all these people.
• 47:58
  Well and then there's this like first directly ominous because
• 48:01
  everything that's been said so far like sounds like it could
• 48:04
  just be jealousy from the excess but this particular line is the
• 48:11
  first that can't be interpreted any way, other than ominous
• 48:14
  because they're like a now she's going to have a show coming out
• 48:17
  in the spring. Melissa goes.
• 48:19
  We'll see about that. Yeah.
• 48:21
  Fuck else do we interpret that line?
• 48:23
  It's dark. It is it is so we learned that
• 48:29
  Alexis dropped out of school because she had kind of mental
• 48:34
  breakdown. Yeah.
• 48:35
  Which that's a very real thing that happened.
• 48:39
  It is not unheard of. Yeah.
• 48:42
  So what a pressure yeah you know she had a pretty traumatic event
• 48:46
  happen to her and She didn't really figure out where she
• 48:49
  wanted to go from there. Yeah, it sounds like, like she
• 48:52
  doesn't know what she wants. So she is like, finished up all
• 48:54
  of her prereq stuff. You know, and then it's like,
• 48:57
  oh, what major, I have to share, what I want to do.
• 49:02
  You have to do Communications sports management.
• 49:10
  So Danielle actually shows up. She says, I'm really grateful to
• 49:15
  be here, instead of whatever. A party.
• 49:18
  I would have been dragged to and I like humblebrag, oh my God,
• 49:23
  she's so bad about this shit really is.
• 49:25
  And she talks about how she talks like this the whole time
• 49:28
  and the thing, the gas something I do to Travis all the time that
• 49:31
  started off as a joke. And now it's something I can't
• 49:34
  stop doing. Yeah, so it was really great to
• 49:35
  finally be able to start an episode like that because that's
• 49:38
  how Danielle said think. Yeah.
• 49:39
  But I told you, I said that this, she's basically that
• 49:43
  in-person personified and she's like, I have got for you all All
• 49:48
  and the gifts are definitely like, free product sample.
• 49:51
  She got there, 100% something that she is given.
• 49:56
  So, not even travel. But, like, you know, here it is.
• 50:00
  Try it. Promote it on your channel,
• 50:02
  right? Guarantee that they've all been
• 50:04
  used at least once so she can like plug it on her on her
• 50:08
  Channel and a video and I was just like, yeah, Daniel I mean
• 50:15
  am I going to buy myself an $80? Facemask know if I was gifted it
• 50:20
  would I be grateful? Even if it was clearly, like I'm
• 50:23
  not going to use this. Do you want it?
• 50:25
  Yeah, soccer. Yeah.
• 50:26
  But just say it that way. Yeah.
• 50:27
  Admit it. She's like it's like re-gifting
• 50:29
  but also like kind of making it worse.
• 50:31
  I've done that before. I've been like, hey, I was sent
• 50:33
  to of the same and they told me to keep it.
• 50:35
  Do you want this? Hell yeah I'm not gonna buy this
• 50:39
  whatever dollar product like Just be real about it.
• 50:43
  Yeah, I think that's the whole thing about Danielle's.
• 50:46
  Everything she's saying, isn't necessarily like untrue or
• 50:49
  unkind. There's just a fakeness to it
• 50:52
  all. Yeah, yeah.
• 50:53
  That's, that's totally. And then like to top it all off.
• 50:56
  She's like, oh, let's take a picture to celebrate or
• 50:58
  basically, anything. Any time she does something
• 51:01
  nice. It's not like one of those
• 51:02
  things where you're just doing it out of the kindness of your
• 51:04
  heart, she's doing it and taking pictures of it so she can like,
• 51:08
  you know, promote herself. Yes.
• 51:10
  And here's the thing though. Okay, I had this argument in one
• 51:15
  of my psychology classes and undergrad because they said pick
• 51:19
  a major and I said psychology, but we were talking about
• 51:25
  altruism as a concept. Yeah.
• 51:27
  And then, like, what disqualifies something from
• 51:29
  being altruism? And I said, truly, I hope
• 51:32
  altruism doesn't exist because if people feel good doing good
• 51:35
  deeds, and it brings them happiness to do it.
• 51:37
  And that's not a bad thing, you know what I mean?
• 51:40
  I don't think we should. Self-flagellating feed the poor
• 51:43
  that way. You know what I mean?
• 51:44
  Like if doing good things make you feel good that's good.
• 51:49
  That's not necessarily A Bad Thing and if her whole thing is
• 51:51
  that she's a wellness Guru. Like, okay.
• 51:54
  I'm going to do something nice and I want to share that.
• 51:56
  I'm doing something nice and it makes me feel good.
• 51:57
  So maybe other people will go do nice things and they can feel
• 52:00
  good to you. I don't think inherently that's
• 52:03
  problematic, but I think, because it's her job and
• 52:07
  capitalism can be problematic in a lot of ways.
• 52:11
  And Is problematic in a lot of ways.
• 52:13
  Then I think that's where we run into issues with this.
• 52:16
  Yeah. So again it's not necessarily
• 52:18
  that. The thing she's doing are
• 52:20
  inherently bad. It's who she is and what she's
• 52:23
  become. Yeah.
• 52:24
  Maybe what she's always been. You know, she's doing a good
• 52:27
  thing. It's just her motive.
• 52:29
  Yeah. Motive is flawed back to the
• 52:31
  good place. Yes, they're full circle.
• 52:34
  All right. Done episode.
• 52:36
  Yeah. Okay fuck.
• 52:41
  What happened next Danielle talks about how she's
• 52:45
  dairy-free. Oh yeah, deaths dif.
• 52:49
  I'm gonna start saying that. Don't do that going to do it.
• 52:53
  Next time we're out to eat and we are like, no cheese.
• 52:55
  I'm DF. No, I don't want to be the
• 53:01
  person there. And then I'm going to take a
• 53:05
  picture of this and idling, DF me all with Mayday.
• 53:09
  Do people still say bay is that sort of thing?
• 53:12
  It's either Baraboo. Is that really so the overnight,
• 53:15
  dude, I've never been in touch with any of.
• 53:17
  That's true. That's true.
• 53:19
  Okay, but she's said that she went dairy-free because a
• 53:22
  follower a few years ago reached out to her, she had a horrible
• 53:25
  boils over her scalp doctors weren't helping her and she was
• 53:29
  begging for help and Alexis is like, really did she know.
• 53:33
  You're not a doctor because she didn't care.
• 53:36
  Yeah, I get it like making up a story to try and make yourself
• 53:40
  sound. Like you're actually doing
• 53:42
  something but like, if you're going to make up the illness,
• 53:44
  maybe not go. With boils like go with
• 53:46
  something like a little like bit of acne.
• 53:50
  Yeah, I like, I don't know. I and I also see this being like
• 53:55
  based on truth but greatly exaggerated I maybe like maybe
• 53:59
  she had a boil that wouldn't go away and she's like, hey do you
• 54:02
  have any Remedy is any homeopathic remedies.
• 54:06
  For those that may be my doctor isn't willing to recommend I
• 54:08
  could see that maybe being a thing, but Danielle is like so
• 54:11
  he did a lot of research and I learned that Dairy causes
• 54:14
  inflammation and it does a lot of other things to your body to.
• 54:17
  So Dairy causes boils and I am going to say, as the resident
• 54:21
  vegan, I feel a lot better eating dairy.
• 54:25
  Okay. I can tell a big difference.
• 54:29
  Oh cool, God. Damn you.
• 54:31
  I can tell a big difference. I had Just feel a lot more
• 54:35
  comfortable. It doesn't mean that it was easy
• 54:37
  to stop eating dairy and I do miss cheese, people ask me that
• 54:40
  all the times. I like, why do you do it?
• 54:42
  And I'm like, I just, you know, I feel I feel better not eating
• 54:45
  it. Yeah, I can miss it but the good
• 54:47
  outweighs the bad for me. I totally get it.
• 54:49
  So that's where I'm at with it. I kind of get it.
• 54:53
  But again, Danielle is just so fucking self-righteous about it.
• 54:56
  Like you said at the beginning like she yeah she she smells her
• 55:00
  own farts. She does she's a fart smeller.
• 55:03
  Do I collect them in jars and then puts them on the Shelf?
• 55:07
  Yeah. So under like a secret name
• 55:10
  online, she would totally stuff, not only does.
• 55:16
  So, hello fellow and then aggressive Alexis is about, this
• 55:21
  is one of my favorite spoken lines of dialogue and a movie
• 55:25
  ever. Like it's one of the best
• 55:27
  examples of being passive aggressive without being overtly
• 55:29
  passive aggressive, because it sounds like you're really making
• 55:32
  a difference. It's how you say it, too.
• 55:34
  It's how she says, it's perfect. Beautiful.
• 55:38
  Masterclass in passive aggression right there.
• 55:41
  Yeah it's amazing. Okay.
• 55:45
  So now cuts to her, cutting her finger.
• 55:48
  Yeah. Oh yeah, she cuts her finger, it
• 55:49
  cuts to her, cutting her finger. And then she goes to the
• 55:51
  bathroom washes, her hand, and puts a bandaid on it without
• 55:54
  drying her finger off, and it drives me insane every single
• 55:56
  fucking time. Yeah.
• 55:58
  It's the, the Band-Aid won't stay if you need to like dry it
• 56:02
  off. It's infuriating.
• 56:03
  Yeah, it is infuriating. Okay, so then they get to
• 56:06
  dinner. Yes.
• 56:07
  And this is where We're Danielle wants to celebrate ourselves
• 56:11
  unlike in our accomplishments, in the past year.
• 56:13
  So let's just go around and say something that we're really
• 56:15
  proud of this year, which in theory.
• 56:17
  Again, I like this idea. It is positive.
• 56:22
  It is a good energy to put out there for New Year's Eve.
• 56:26
  Yeah. But she's so fucking
• 56:30
  sanctimonious about it. It's like, it's just so
• 56:32
  infuriating because, and up until this point, she just seems
• 56:35
  like one of those people that maybe she's just like so perfect
• 56:38
  that you want to hate her, but you can't, but we find out that
• 56:41
  it is all fake later. Why do you think these people
• 56:43
  are like tolerating her though? Because they know that that's
• 56:45
  not how she is. They know the true person that
• 56:48
  she is. They have an ulterior motive, I
• 56:51
  know. But I still like, like I would
• 56:55
  just be like fucking let's tie her up now.
• 56:57
  Well, they want to get Get her into a place where they feel
• 56:59
  like they can convince her to like, admit to her wrongdoings
• 57:02
  or whatever. Okay, psychological, yeah, yeah,
• 57:05
  yeah. I got you.
• 57:06
  And when it gets to Alexis, she's like, oh well, I'm, you
• 57:11
  know, struggling to. But I really think my biggest
• 57:13
  accomplishments are yet to come again.
• 57:17
  She makes like a little Mantra thing to.
• 57:20
  Like, it's almost like, I feel like Danielle saw that she's
• 57:23
  like, holy shit. That was amazing.
• 57:24
  I'm stealing that can be the next episode.
• 57:28
  And it's never too late to look forward to your next
• 57:31
  accomplishment, okay? So they go to a sauna or the
• 57:38
  sauna in the house the sauna and they talk about their High
• 57:42
  School boyfriend's and the type of conversations that you have
• 57:44
  with. When you're with high school
• 57:46
  friends and you're like oh shit, do you remember that time?
• 57:47
  Do you remember this time? It is kind of like a fun moment
• 57:50
  and it feels again like very realistic.
• 57:52
  It's like they all kind of dropped the whole thing.
• 57:55
  They were actually being from kind of like what you were
• 57:58
  talking Talking about before it's like they fell back into
• 57:59
  the roles of you know being like high school friends again.
• 58:02
  Yeah. And then they go outside out
• 58:05
  back into the living room. They're in a new set of jammies
• 58:07
  orgy, and they are talking about their current love life's, and
• 58:12
  this is where Kayla mentions that she's going to be moving in
• 58:15
  with her girlfriend. And, you know, there's it's this
• 58:20
  whole thing because apparently, Danielle used to call Kalin ugly
• 58:25
  lesbian. We don't know that.
• 58:26
  Yeah, we don't know it yet. But I'm bringing it up now
• 58:29
  because it comes up later. So she used to call her that and
• 58:33
  it took until her mid-20s for her to come out and she's like,
• 58:37
  no, I knew back in high school. I was into girls.
• 58:39
  This isn't like a new thing because Daniel is like, oh my
• 58:41
  God, I'm so happy for you on top of that like, that's shitty
• 58:44
  enough, but then she like this is like a super genuine moment.
• 58:47
  They're talking about it and then she's like, oh my God, let
• 58:49
  me get the camera out. She's like, okay, start from the
• 58:50
  top. Yeah, this is making her Ruiz.
• 58:52
  Tell the story. Yeah.
• 58:53
  So they start doing a video of New York, New Year's resolutions
• 58:56
  in Caleb. You know, being somebody who is
• 59:01
  queer and apparently works in some sort of field where she's
• 59:05
  working with people that are, you know, either dealing with
• 59:09
  mental health, issues or some other disability that makes
• 59:11
  them, you know, maligned by in the general population, in some
• 59:17
  way starts, talking about how she feels, it's important to be
• 59:19
  connected and active for speaking into the things that
• 59:22
  she wants to. You know, that she thinks are
• 59:24
  important and Daniel's like oh hold on, we need to stop.
• 59:28
  Because politics can be kind of divisive to My Views.
• 59:31
  Our viewers, who maybe don't agree with me politically which
• 59:36
  is just it's such a fucking corporate talk and it's like I
• 59:43
  give a platform like take a stance man yes I feel like
• 59:46
  that's the more socially responsible thing to do speak
• 59:49
  about the things that are important to you.
• 59:52
  And you know if you lose a couple of bigots in the process
• 59:58
  yeah, like I'm sorry if you're making two hundred thousand
• 1:00:03
  dollars a year. In passive income alone.
• 1:00:05
  This is the figure they throw out.
• 1:00:06
  Like are is that a person's like that's not enough to make like a
• 1:00:11
  bougie lifestyle in LA. And here's the thing too, is
• 1:00:15
  that like ad Revenue, you have to have so many thousands of
• 1:00:19
  views to really make a decent amount off of the ad Revenue.
• 1:00:23
  If you lose a handful of bigots from it, is it going to hurt you
• 1:00:26
  that much? Because you might gain new
• 1:00:28
  people. I'm a person that if I hear
• 1:00:29
  somebody is like very Steadfast to their beliefs and their like,
• 1:00:32
  a good person. I'm a lot more willing to check
• 1:00:35
  them out. Then I'm going to be to somebody
• 1:00:36
  that just seems like wishy-washy.
• 1:00:38
  Yeah, totally. Basically, they're all talking
• 1:00:41
  about what their New Year's resolutions are and Danielle
• 1:00:44
  turns the camera over to Alexis, and Alexis is like, no, thank
• 1:00:47
  you. And Danny was like, come on
• 1:00:49
  Lexi. Come on, come on.
• 1:00:51
  She gets her face. She's talking to her like a dog.
• 1:00:53
  Yes, it's so weird. Except when we try and get our
• 1:00:57
  dog to do stuff on video and she doesn't want to do it.
• 1:00:59
  We turn off the fucking camera animus being.
• 1:01:04
  Yeah she she had this coming. Yeah I do not blame Alexis at
• 1:01:10
  all for taking the fun out of her hand fucking love it.
• 1:01:13
  It's so aggressive. Like Alexis just does all this
• 1:01:16
  shit that people want to do and then Daniel fucking Darrow's it
• 1:01:20
  like she denies that she did anything wrong and she was like
• 1:01:25
  that was really aggressive. I feel really scared and then
• 1:01:28
  she reverses victim and offender.
• 1:01:30
  She does classic narcissistic like Hallmarks of how you handle
• 1:01:37
  conflict. Yeah, and then like even
• 1:01:39
  afterwards when Alexa, the power goes out.
• 1:01:42
  So Alexis goes to the breaker box and Daniel's like I thought
• 1:01:44
  my phone would have gone through the window and they're like,
• 1:01:47
  well yeah, they kind of you know, replace the windows after
• 1:01:50
  everything, they don't want to say, directly what it is and
• 1:01:54
  he's like, I just feel, I'm still very traumatized by that
• 1:01:57
  mother. You were in her face your Oh,
• 1:02:00
  she told you know, very explicitly and clearly and
• 1:02:04
  honestly if you're a wellness Guru, shouldn't you be
• 1:02:07
  respecting boundaries? If I saw this shit like she
• 1:02:10
  uploaded the like, what the fuck is wrong this morning?
• 1:02:12
  Because there's one thing like you know, there are some people
• 1:02:14
  that like want to be asked to be included very explicitly.
• 1:02:19
  Yeah. Like not just like, okay, hey,
• 1:02:21
  you're here part of the group you do this, too.
• 1:02:22
  But like, no please. I really want to hear exactly
• 1:02:24
  what you want to say. Like you know, I know that you
• 1:02:26
  were planning on doing this. Do you have a resolution
• 1:02:29
  relates? That would be something.
• 1:02:30
  That would like speak to somebody.
• 1:02:32
  Just leave it at that. Yeah, feel like he's no, not
• 1:02:34
  getting their physical come on said.
• 1:02:35
  No, I don't want to be on camera.
• 1:02:37
  I don't want to do this. Please take the camera off of
• 1:02:39
  me. That was a very clear boundary
• 1:02:40
  that she said. Yeah.
• 1:02:41
  And it's just fucked up that she ignored it.
• 1:02:43
  Not that I'm saying violence is correct.
• 1:02:45
  But like yeah, getting the camera out of my face when you
• 1:02:48
  have it in my face like that, put it down, put it down.
• 1:02:51
  I like when she goes down there to the box to, you know, the
• 1:02:56
  reaction temperature. Yeah, catch things that know.
• 1:03:01
  Daniel and Alexis is responses.
• 1:03:17
  Let's just fucking party. Like I just love it.
• 1:03:21
  She's like, she doesn't want to do the schmaltzy bullshit.
• 1:03:25
  Yeah. And bullshit says, it feels so
• 1:03:28
  like scripted. She's like You're the one that I
• 1:03:32
  used to have engine snack food on Friday nights and nobody else
• 1:03:35
  wanted to hang out when she does this thing.
• 1:03:39
  So many times here. When she likes starts to talk
• 1:03:41
  about a why she like self deprecates that we shouldn't try
• 1:03:44
  and make herself a little bit relatable.
• 1:03:46
  She doesn't like the quirky girl way though.
• 1:03:48
  Yeah, exactly. Yeah, I can't stand that shit.
• 1:03:52
  So yeah, they're over it in quotation marks.
• 1:03:55
  Yeah. Okay.
• 1:03:56
  So now it's an hour till midnight.
• 1:03:58
  Danielle decides that You can have their phones, which is
• 1:04:02
  pretty fucking rude. Because Kayla just said, she's
• 1:04:04
  away from her girlfriends and presumably, she would want to
• 1:04:07
  talk to her. Yeah, I get one.
• 1:04:08
  Did we agree to this beforehand? No, I get like, making a
• 1:04:12
  commitment together, be like, hey, what's not check our phones
• 1:04:14
  for the next hour? But like just so I get them all
• 1:04:17
  like up and tie them away and just yeah, they're playing.
• 1:04:20
  Never have I ever. Yes, which can be really fun
• 1:04:25
  where it can be really bad. Depending on the vibe of the
• 1:04:27
  group. You gotta be on the same page.
• 1:04:29
  Yeah. And based on Previous Vibes of
• 1:04:32
  the night if it had been before the video throwing it, will ya
• 1:04:36
  never have her great but Alexis just through somebody's phone
• 1:04:40
  across the room. Maybe never have I ever notice
• 1:04:44
  how everything that's going across the room.
• 1:04:46
  Yeah it's like the first one you do.
• 1:04:48
  That's well they're playing never have I ever so nice is
• 1:04:52
  never have I ever slept with a celebrity clearly trying to
• 1:04:55
  bait. Danielle is all up in Danielle's
• 1:04:59
  business. It doesn't seem like Danielle's
• 1:05:01
  gonna drink it first. Like, she's like hello, maybe
• 1:05:03
  one of them has slept with the ceremony and then she realizes
• 1:05:06
  that they're thinking about her. She goes.
• 1:05:09
  So, she takes like a little Shifty drink and then she like,
• 1:05:13
  yeah. She draws it out because she's
• 1:05:14
  thinking of the story on the fly.
• 1:05:15
  Yeah. It very much feels like that.
• 1:05:17
  Also, this aged terribly terribly.
• 1:05:22
  I mean, I don't know you on mosque was a good person before
• 1:05:25
  but we know he's not now. Yeah, this is so sweet.
• 1:05:29
  This was like, only four years ago and Alexis is right.
• 1:05:33
  When she's like, you flew out to a stranger's Island.
• 1:05:36
  Like he's a stranger. Yeah.
• 1:05:39
  And I don't agree with her slut shaming her and calling her a
• 1:05:42
  whore. Yeah, that also like I am
• 1:05:44
  worried for Danielle's safety in the moment because like, that's
• 1:05:48
  how you die. That's how you get murdered and
• 1:05:50
  it's Elon Musk. He's not going to face any
• 1:05:52
  repercussions. I fucking love this.
• 1:05:54
  See this entire clips of this episode are going to get pulled
• 1:05:58
  from Twitter because he's in charge of today.
• 1:06:01
  I mean just to this whole thing like the whole tension between
• 1:06:04
  Alexis and Danielle. Like you can see that Danielle
• 1:06:08
  is back. It into a corner.
• 1:06:09
  And she's trying to think of these things as like, Alexis
• 1:06:12
  adds more pressure just a little bit more.
• 1:06:14
  Each time. I fucking love it, though.
• 1:06:16
  She's she just pushes like and kiss Kayla's.
• 1:06:19
  Like know any, she answered the question and like we're moving
• 1:06:22
  on, it's a game and then Alexis is like know the game is this is
• 1:06:26
  talking about the game. Yeah.
• 1:06:28
  Yeah we talked about these experiences we had together and
• 1:06:30
  fucking love that if she's like no bullshit from Alexis at all
• 1:06:34
  this is okay. You know we talked about the Sub
• 1:06:37
  sub genre of Like party games gone wrong and horror and was
• 1:06:43
  father. Yes.
• 1:06:44
  If this had been the entire like I could see an entire movie of
• 1:06:46
  never have I ever and like you're you know I can see that
• 1:06:50
  to. Yeah that'll be the next one
• 1:06:52
  instead of Truth or Dare. It's going to be never.
• 1:06:54
  Have I ever accept next month? We're actually talking about
• 1:06:56
  Truth or Dare. Oh yes we are.
• 1:06:57
  But you know I'm just saying that.
• 1:07:00
  That's our next movie. What will make that movie?
• 1:07:02
  Never have I ever saw them into it.
• 1:07:05
  Okay? All right.
• 1:07:07
  So It gets to, the point is very heated, tensions are high.
• 1:07:13
  They get through it and then I like so because never have I
• 1:07:15
  ever bleed a girl to the point that she killed herself and then
• 1:07:19
  she tackles Danielle & Poor's, an entire bottle of champagne on
• 1:07:24
  her face and then she says, get the balloons Tire up and saw
• 1:07:28
  what the plans were. Therefore, they weren't to guess
• 1:07:30
  you did. That's smart though.
• 1:07:33
  I mean, balloon is a really, it's not really strong material,
• 1:07:35
  like if Danielle really tried like it had not.
• 1:07:39
  Given up, she could have maybe gotten out of that.
• 1:07:41
  Yeah, I mean, our Roomba has like torn up of the last ring
• 1:07:45
  before like Danielle gave up immediately.
• 1:07:48
  She's like this is like I'm tied Scout and I want you thinking.
• 1:07:59
  So Alexis like, all right we're gonna make you tell everybody
• 1:08:03
  how terrible you actually are because you don't deserve any of
• 1:08:06
  this. And this very much comes across
• 1:08:08
  like Jealous rather than like we don't want you influencing other
• 1:08:12
  people like it's not, hey, we don't want you influencing these
• 1:08:18
  people. It's hey, you don't deserve
• 1:08:20
  this. Yeah.
• 1:08:21
  That's kind of how it is but they're like framing.
• 1:08:23
  This is their motive is like, she can't have influence over
• 1:08:28
  anybody. She's a terrible person.
• 1:08:30
  Like, if we, let her have any type of impact on like the
• 1:08:34
  youth, it's going to be bad. Yeah, so she It's record.
• 1:08:39
  Danielle. She's like confess and Danielle
• 1:08:42
  does exactly like what I said at the beginning.
• 1:08:44
  Where she frames it in such a way that she's like bullying is
• 1:08:48
  an issue. This is terrible.
• 1:08:50
  I hate the fact that this girl ended up killing herself.
• 1:08:53
  That's a problem. I'm complicit in that.
• 1:08:56
  I didn't do anything to stop it. Yeah, and here's the thing, in
• 1:08:59
  all of this is that neither Alexis nor Danielle are taking
• 1:09:05
  accountability because Danielle's acting like she
• 1:09:07
  wasn't an active participant in the Bullying same with Alexis
• 1:09:10
  and I'll. Yeah.
• 1:09:11
  And I like yeah Daniels like you were right there with me that
• 1:09:15
  night and I like this is like you had control over me.
• 1:09:18
  Yeah basically yeah. She's not even saying goodbye.
• 1:09:22
  Yeah. And she's not even saying like
• 1:09:24
  and I feel terrible about it. She's like no but you you did
• 1:09:27
  it? Yeah it's all you.
• 1:09:29
  I just like looking for somebody to blame I mean she couldn't she
• 1:09:32
  come fucking Darrow's right back onto.
• 1:09:34
  Yeah. I mean it's the whole thing with
• 1:09:36
  this movie, right? Like I feel like they're all
• 1:09:38
  terrible people. Except for maybe.
• 1:09:40
  Kayla. Kayla is the only good person.
• 1:09:41
  Yes. Caleb is, are you better than
• 1:09:44
  all of them Chloe's vulnerable? I feel like she's actually a
• 1:09:47
  good person. She just got, like, taken
• 1:09:48
  advantage of. I feel like Khloe never stood a
• 1:09:51
  chance. I feel like if she'd been around
• 1:09:53
  better influences, she would have a stronger will but she's
• 1:09:56
  got, such a weak will and she's very easily influenced and that
• 1:09:59
  doesn't make her actions. Okay.
• 1:10:00
  And it doesn't make her a good person, but I think in another
• 1:10:03
  life with a different Social Circles was gonna say her
• 1:10:05
  friend. Core is the problem.
• 1:10:07
  Yes. And then you have Alexis it's
• 1:10:09
  and Danielle and they like the same person.
• 1:10:10
  And here's the thing is that we're told Alexis is are, you
• 1:10:16
  know, heroin she is the pride tagging issues.
• 1:10:19
  The person were following, but we never see what happens that
• 1:10:23
  night. And obviously, is it a little
• 1:10:27
  bit suspicious that Alexis is the one with the scar and
• 1:10:30
  Danielle isn't that would mean that Alexis is closer to the
• 1:10:33
  window. When Kelsey fell out?
• 1:10:34
  Yeah, yeah. You're right.
• 1:10:35
  I feel like she would be like right there so like And I don't
• 1:10:39
  think that's the thing, is that we don't know.
• 1:10:42
  And I think it's great that they don't tell us.
• 1:10:44
  I think that it's pretty damning that Kayla.
• 1:10:47
  And Chloe are on Alexis decide right now, that does tell me
• 1:10:51
  that Danielle was probably the worst part of it.
• 1:10:55
  Yes, because they are all in agreement.
• 1:10:57
  Like yeah, Daniel fucking sucked.
• 1:10:59
  Yes, actually Mustang also don't.
• 1:11:02
  When Danielle says I didn't do that.
• 1:11:05
  I don't know what she's talking about.
• 1:11:07
  Like, They're willing to believe that and I'm not saying that
• 1:11:12
  Danielle is not manipulative enough to convince because
• 1:11:15
  that's how narcissists are thinking and that, and that's
• 1:11:18
  what I'm saying. That's what's great about this
• 1:11:20
  movie and the characterization of it all is that there's so
• 1:11:22
  much ambiguity, all we know for sure is that these people suck.
• 1:11:26
  Yeah, something terrible happened and they are complicit
• 1:11:30
  in some way, more or less. Yes, and they are doing more
• 1:11:33
  terrible things tonight. After the fact and none of its
• 1:11:37
  rectifying the situation and that is, in fact, making them
• 1:11:39
  all even worse people except for Kayla.
• 1:11:42
  Well, Kayla is kind of having second thoughts now.
• 1:11:46
  Yeah, backs out of the room and Alexis is like, nowhere.
• 1:11:49
  We got to take this a little bit further.
• 1:11:51
  Yeah. So Alexis gets some of those
• 1:11:53
  product samples smears am all over.
• 1:11:55
  Danielle's. Face Cuts our hair gives a good
• 1:11:58
  face. This is poop faces nasty.
• 1:12:01
  Yeah, she like just smeared it all over her makeup too, right?
• 1:12:04
  Yeah. It's all real.
• 1:12:05
  Banished. It's here, it's here, but it's
• 1:12:12
  also like, I don't like, it is a little bit like, upset.
• 1:12:15
  I got, It's upsetting. Yeah, that emotional when
• 1:12:19
  elevens hair was cut in the last season of stranger things, when
• 1:12:22
  she woke up in the vat and her hair was shaved off, and you
• 1:12:25
  could tell she was really upset because like, she had worked so
• 1:12:28
  hard to grow it out because it was part of overcoming her drama
• 1:12:31
  like at the hair thing is very psychological.
• 1:12:34
  Yeah, I guess so yeah, there's a reason it's been used as a
• 1:12:37
  torture device. Ice in in the past.
• 1:12:41
  Yeah. And probably unfortunately,
• 1:12:42
  current for today and this movie.
• 1:12:45
  Yes. Well I mean the world's not a
• 1:12:48
  bright and cheery Place necessarily so but yeah.
• 1:12:53
  So so she's got good face and this is where Kayla's like I
• 1:12:57
  didn't want to do any of this and so they all kind of split up
• 1:13:00
  she storms out, Alexis goes after her.
• 1:13:02
  And then while Chloe is a balloon with Danielle Danielle
• 1:13:07
  is basically, Telling her. Hey, if you set me free, I will
• 1:13:12
  give you my position on my old segment.
• 1:13:14
  I'm looking for the replacement anyways, because Sheamus she
• 1:13:18
  doesn't say that though. She says, I really came here to
• 1:13:21
  see if I thought my gut was right, that you would be a good
• 1:13:24
  replacement bullshit. Yeah.
• 1:13:26
  Like she saw it. Like, it's an obvious lie that
• 1:13:28
  she doesn't say anyway, like, hey, Set Me Free, and I'll make
• 1:13:30
  you my replacement. She's like, I actually came here
• 1:13:32
  with the idea to make you my replacement.
• 1:13:34
  Yeah, exactly. Yeah, that's them.
• 1:13:35
  It's devious and Like I said before, Chloe?
• 1:13:40
  She's too vulnerable. She's like, yeah, my life is
• 1:13:44
  shit. I could use low E is a hunter
• 1:13:46
  percent somebody that like, was once at a party asked, like how
• 1:13:51
  much money it would take for her to do X.
• 1:13:54
  And she had exact amount. Ready?
• 1:13:56
  Yes, which I get because I've but I, you know, there have been
• 1:14:00
  various situations where we watch a horror movie and I'd be
• 1:14:02
  like, you know what? That amount of money I do it.
• 1:14:04
  Oh, it's would you rather? I was just thinking that.
• 1:14:06
  Yes, because they the What's her face?
• 1:14:09
  She's a vegetarian and he offers her like a hundred thousand
• 1:14:12
  dollars or something, to eat some meat and I was like, I'd do
• 1:14:14
  it. Same with alcohol.
• 1:14:15
  Yeah, I would do like there when you are in Dire, Straits, your
• 1:14:21
  morals, go down a little bit to Maslow's hierarchy of needs.
• 1:14:26
  You know what I mean? Like again, it's like if you
• 1:14:29
  need to take care of certain things, your moral High Ground
• 1:14:32
  isn't going to be the most important thing to you.
• 1:14:34
  Yeah. It's a matter of like what you
• 1:14:35
  got to lose you? Yes, yeah.
• 1:14:37
  If you don't have a wife, And fuck it.
• 1:14:38
  Take the risk. Yeah.
• 1:14:40
  So what Chloe is seeing here is a way out of her desperate
• 1:14:43
  situation. Yeah.
• 1:14:45
  And so Alexis and kale are back and she's about to do some more
• 1:14:52
  shit's who were but Danielle's free kicks Alexis in the
• 1:14:57
  stomach. It's a closer to the ground and
• 1:14:59
  then everybody's wrestling. Yeah there's a lot of time to
• 1:15:02
  kick in in the water tummy lot of how many I like it.
• 1:15:05
  I appreciate that's like the go-to move.
• 1:15:07
  You know if I'm ever I can add need of self-defense.
• 1:15:10
  My go to movies. I'm just kicking the tummy.
• 1:15:12
  Yeah, yeah. And if you want, Travis to watch
• 1:15:15
  your movie, just let him know there's tummy kicking.
• 1:15:18
  Be like, I'll check it out. This shit's hilarious.
• 1:15:25
  Yes. So Chloe thought the plan was
• 1:15:30
  just that they were going to scare them but Daniel like, well
• 1:15:33
  we're going to leave them in the sauna for a couple of hours then
• 1:15:35
  we're going to tell the cops that they disappeared while
• 1:15:38
  we're watching a movie. And by the time we found out,
• 1:15:40
  they were already dead in clothes.
• 1:15:41
  Like, you haven't, you have the cover story?
• 1:15:45
  Yeah, she and it's like, well, if you think that they, that
• 1:15:49
  they won't tell them what we try to do it.
• 1:15:52
  Like, if you think it's okay like I'll try.
• 1:15:54
  Just your judgment. I just would hate for these
• 1:15:56
  rumors. Let's surprise.
• 1:15:58
  Like she's so fucking manipulative.
• 1:16:00
  And Khloe is such a little lap dog, that's just going along
• 1:16:03
  with all of it. Meanwhile up in the sauna Kayla
• 1:16:07
  is talking about how much all of them suck super relatable
• 1:16:11
  correct? Yeah, maybe not relatable just
• 1:16:15
  correct. Yeah, like they all are shitty
• 1:16:18
  people. She's a little bit
• 1:16:19
  self-righteous. Considering she agreed to some
• 1:16:22
  of this like she Actually helped tidy.
• 1:16:25
  Hello like what? Yeah, that's gonna happen.
• 1:16:27
  Like it was all going to be shitty the beginning with.
• 1:16:29
  She's not. Yes, either really?
• 1:16:31
  Yes. She's like, I agreed to scare
• 1:16:32
  her. Not torture her.
• 1:16:34
  You were ready to tie her up bitch, like and torture right?
• 1:16:39
  Like restricting movement. Yeah.
• 1:16:41
  That's kind of like the fucks you up.
• 1:16:42
  Yeah. So yeah.
• 1:16:45
  They, they end up finding like a champagne bottle and she busted
• 1:16:49
  open. They were locked in lucky that
• 1:16:51
  the window smashed inside of the bottle.
• 1:16:54
  It was a tough man would have loved, like, you know, kind of a
• 1:16:59
  nice guys moment where he like conscious of the window.
• 1:17:01
  And he's like, oh my God, my arms, all cut up.
• 1:17:02
  And yeah, well, you punch through 10, I would have loved
• 1:17:05
  that for her to hit the window with the bottle and the bottle
• 1:17:07
  smashes. And Alexis to just be like, what
• 1:17:10
  did you think would happen? I'm telling you, I've seen like
• 1:17:14
  I watch a lot of five videos, a lot of times in the liquor
• 1:17:17
  stores, the go-to weapon of choice for most people are
• 1:17:19
  liquor bottles like that. They take them punks on the
• 1:17:22
  headsman. You expect the About the bottle
• 1:17:24
  of the bus open. No, you just hear Boom?
• 1:17:27
  And then fucking knock out every single time y'all.
• 1:17:30
  I need you to know he's saying this for your all's benefit, not
• 1:17:33
  for mine, because he's explained this to me.
• 1:17:34
  He's shown me for all videos of this before.
• 1:17:38
  Yeah, this it is an actual morbid interest of his.
• 1:17:43
  So it's good. Okay.
• 1:17:46
  So it works. They had a pull like the cues.
• 1:17:51
  Are there Pool sticks. Yeah q6 Q 6.
• 1:17:55
  Yeah, they had them wedged in the door and they got him free.
• 1:17:58
  And then in the meantime, Danielle and Chloe are knifing
• 1:18:02
  up because they heard the window smash upstairs.
• 1:18:05
  So they're going to go out and look for them.
• 1:18:06
  Yeah. So Alexis and Kayla run down
• 1:18:09
  through the garage and they pull up the garage door and on the
• 1:18:11
  other side is they're just saying yelling Khloe.
• 1:18:14
  Yeah they were ready. It was a great moment.
• 1:18:16
  This is like a real reaction of because like the reaction from
• 1:18:20
  Kayla and Alexis it's a scream but like instead of Fight or
• 1:18:23
  flight Kayla chose Phi, is she just got kicked, Chloe, and then
• 1:18:28
  the reaction that Khloe has really good lingered on that
• 1:18:36
  moment way too long. And I'm like, oh, this is real.
• 1:18:39
  Like it's so accurate. I think even stun Danielle to
• 1:18:45
  cause she's like, oh my God, is she fucking kicked her in the
• 1:18:47
  stomach, so they like it gives them enough time to run away.
• 1:18:52
  Yeah. So, So they there's a whole lot
• 1:18:55
  of chasing going around and Kayla.
• 1:18:57
  Eventually is alone with Chloe and she talks to her.
• 1:19:00
  And it's like she's trying to reason with her giving her a now
• 1:19:02
  and we can go. Yeah.
• 1:19:04
  And Chloe is just like so nervous about it and she just
• 1:19:07
  like now not only does she have this possibility to get out of
• 1:19:11
  the mess? She's in but she doesn't want to
• 1:19:14
  get into a further Mess by being accused of attempted murder and
• 1:19:17
  she ends up hitting Kayla in the head and killing her.
• 1:19:21
  Yep, accidental though. He was freaking out, we
• 1:19:25
  accidental. I mean, she thinks she wanted to
• 1:19:27
  hurt her. Maybe knock her out, and think
• 1:19:28
  about it. And then I don't think she
• 1:19:31
  wanted to be the killer, but this kind of turns her into the
• 1:19:33
  killer. It does it does.
• 1:19:36
  She's not nearly remorseful enough for it though.
• 1:19:38
  She goes running down to tell Danielle about it and he was
• 1:19:41
  like, I'm so glad you put yourself first.
• 1:19:43
  Finally. Yeah.
• 1:19:44
  And Chloe's like, you know what, you're right.
• 1:19:47
  But yeah. But then Kayla's girlfriend
• 1:19:51
  shows up because Kayla Had managed to sneak her phone out
• 1:19:54
  at some point in collar and just say, like, I want to be home,
• 1:19:58
  but my car is broken down and Frankie's like I can come get
• 1:20:00
  you and she goes no, don't worry about it.
• 1:20:02
  Yeah, but Kayla's on been answering the phone.
• 1:20:05
  Yeah, she freaked out. She's like, fuck it.
• 1:20:06
  I'll go check. Yeah.
• 1:20:08
  And so she does and she's trying to Danielle and of course, let
• 1:20:11
  you know there's a celebrity there and she's like, oh yeah,
• 1:20:13
  you know, talking her and you know, Daniels like you know
• 1:20:15
  classic Kayla fall asleep. You know, right away and we're
• 1:20:19
  just proud of her for making it to midnight which we all know
• 1:20:21
  that friend like you. Like this, all feels very
• 1:20:24
  realistic. She was, you know, my sister
• 1:20:25
  really likes your videos and they talk and then Chloe is the
• 1:20:28
  one that says Ends up. Killing just comes out of
• 1:20:33
  nowhere. With a knife is a guy.
• 1:20:34
  Yeah, she got it imagined a like.
• 1:20:38
  Whoa. This is like an actual cool
• 1:20:40
  person. Yeah, no, she kills her.
• 1:20:43
  Meanwhile, like while all that's been happening, Alexis has been
• 1:20:46
  sneaking around to trying to like, figure out a way out.
• 1:20:49
  Hmm. Um, but like basically just ends
• 1:20:53
  up like, okay, so Frankie's dead.
• 1:20:56
  Yeah, and Alexis heard their whole conversation before
• 1:21:00
  Frankie came. I'm in where Danielle was
• 1:21:02
  talking about like what they're out like what their cover story
• 1:21:05
  would be like, oh, you know, we told her that she deserves
• 1:21:08
  better and she should break up and so she got jealous and came
• 1:21:11
  up here and it's just all tragic.
• 1:21:13
  Like she had like a whole, you know, whole fucking cover story
• 1:21:16
  ready to go. This is kind of sociopathic, but
• 1:21:20
  also like a little bit of impressive.
• 1:21:22
  She's not a good person then yeah.
• 1:21:25
  So Alexis goes, running away from the two of them because
• 1:21:34
  they see her and she goes to try and knock down Danielle and and
• 1:21:38
  said hits Khloe and Khloe rolls down the stairs and died is, and
• 1:21:43
  then Danielle and Alexis are fighting.
• 1:21:46
  And Danielle was just like full-on insulting.
• 1:21:48
  Alexis, like she is saying all of the thing.
• 1:21:51
  All of the terrible things that Alexis has been saying that she
• 1:21:53
  says all the time in a context that it doesn't make sense like
• 1:21:57
  it. Just be like, hey, you're a
• 1:21:59
  fucking asshole for trying to kill me.
• 1:22:01
  Like that's an insult. That makes sense.
• 1:22:02
  Totally totally necessary to, which is legal for, but she's
• 1:22:07
  like, you're a loser, you'll never be as good as me,
• 1:22:11
  everybody. Hates you like, is this like
• 1:22:14
  high school show? Yes, exactly.
• 1:22:16
  Exactly. And so, what ends up happening
• 1:22:18
  is because Danielle's like smashing her up against the
• 1:22:21
  window and it's tempered glass like it's cracking but it's only
• 1:22:24
  flew breaking through. And then Alexis flips around
• 1:22:26
  with Daniela. And then ends up pushing her
• 1:22:28
  through the window into the pool, where she hits her head
• 1:22:31
  and is dead. And then we cut to a YouTube
• 1:22:35
  video and it's the head of the Channel, Jesse something.
• 1:22:40
  And she is saying, as many of, you know, get well, Danielle was
• 1:22:46
  found tragically died on New Year's Day, but will blah here
• 1:22:50
  to remember her is her friend Alexis Alexis, you know, just
• 1:22:54
  whatever random bullshit she's in a crop top.
• 1:22:57
  Very like a respectful and mournful and not one to judge,
• 1:23:00
  like, I don't dislike crop tops. I just also feel like, if you're
• 1:23:04
  there for a memorial piece, like yeah, sure.
• 1:23:08
  But know what's even worse about that, though?
• 1:23:10
  She's like there to plug her own self and then like do self
• 1:23:15
  defense tactics like the, teach the fan self-defense.
• 1:23:18
  Yeah, a spicy y'all. Here's how we make our own
• 1:23:21
  pepper spray. Yes.
• 1:23:23
  Yeah. Is back to like the shitty
• 1:23:25
  YouTube videos. Yes.
• 1:23:27
  Yes. And then we get the and she uses
• 1:23:29
  the same cover story that Danielle had.
• 1:23:31
  Yeah. With jiang's about why everybody
• 1:23:33
  was Duchess like yeah our friend Kayla is girlfriend just like
• 1:23:36
  gaming caught. Everybody was crazy.
• 1:23:38
  Yeah. Yeah no way to disprove that, I
• 1:23:43
  guess. Yeah.
• 1:23:44
  Yeah. And then we get the worst
• 1:23:46
  fucking credits. Every like it's the most Bland
• 1:23:48
  credit appointing this movie had potential for really interesting
• 1:23:52
  like credits. Yeah.
• 1:23:54
  Like especially because they pulled out to a YouTube page and
• 1:23:56
  they have like the recommend Videos on the side.
• 1:23:58
  They could have like some right. I would have loved that.
• 1:24:00
  Yes, but you know what, though, what I'm about me reading up to
• 1:24:03
  an eight, the more we talk about it, the more I realize that
• 1:24:06
  there's like a lot of really good Nuance in the writing and
• 1:24:08
  it feels very real in a lot of ways.
• 1:24:09
  And even though there's things I would change, you know, maybe
• 1:24:14
  they could have flush out some ideas better.
• 1:24:16
  I think her TV movie, they did a really good job and I really
• 1:24:18
  enjoyed it. Okay.
• 1:24:20
  Um, I'm pretty good with mine. Still at 7.5.
• 1:24:24
  I like this movie a lot. It's you know.
• 1:24:27
  It's, it's a New Year's horror movie but it's not like really a
• 1:24:32
  big focus on the holiday. Yeah.
• 1:24:34
  It's like a Revenge movie, which shows are fun.
• 1:24:36
  But this is a fun one. Like, it's fun to have an excuse
• 1:24:39
  to watch this one every year. And like I said before, we don't
• 1:24:41
  even have to put this one on around the views.
• 1:24:43
  Like yeah it's not so aggressively like New Year's.
• 1:24:46
  That is like I feel weird watching this in July like it's
• 1:24:49
  just like, yeah how it's a Revenge movie takes place on New
• 1:24:52
  Year's but yeah, it's like it's a theme.
• 1:24:54
  Yeah, you know, it's just a fun. It feels like A movie that
• 1:24:57
  somebody wanted to make and then they had the opportunity to do
• 1:25:01
  it with this. Yeah they're like um yeah this
• 1:25:04
  is Blue Mouse like it's all going to take place around a
• 1:25:06
  holiday and I okay fucking New Year's soon.
• 1:25:08
  Okay. Is there a current our new
• 1:25:11
  average of 7.75? Hmm.
• 1:25:13
  Is there anything that it would take to make you bump up your
• 1:25:17
  Review. Any I don't know, I don't think
• 1:25:26
  that it would hurt to have a little bit more information
• 1:25:28
  about what exactly happened. Like, I guess the ambiguity is
• 1:25:31
  pretty nice, but at the same time like I don't know.
• 1:25:36
  I want to know, like I want to have like just a tiny little
• 1:25:38
  bit. Okay.
• 1:25:39
  So when I think you're gonna like my pitch for my dream
• 1:25:41
  sequel. Okay.
• 1:25:42
  Yeah. So my dreams equal still has
• 1:25:45
  Alexis And I don't know, I don't know what circumstances gets her
• 1:25:50
  into it, but she's in kind of a similar situation except it's
• 1:25:53
  with like, Kelsey sister or something.
• 1:25:56
  Oh, like Cara little kid. No, no.
• 1:25:59
  Kelsey the grand just, I mean, I make a suggestion, like our
• 1:26:03
  okay. Yeah.
• 1:26:04
  I wanted to be no. I want it to be somebody that's
• 1:26:06
  related to Kelsey and they can tell us the whole story of what
• 1:26:09
  happened with Kelsey, Daniel, Alexis, I got.
• 1:26:12
  So, she's getting her own revenge on Alexis.
• 1:26:14
  Okay, I like that. Yeah, that's good.
• 1:26:16
  I like that. Yeah, cool.
• 1:26:19
  Okay. Tires very activated during this
• 1:26:21
  movie. However, she did ask to go out
• 1:26:25
  multiple times. So maybe she didn't love it as
• 1:26:27
  much as us because she was very much, like it's been snowing.
• 1:26:30
  She loves the snow. She does, she does.
• 1:26:33
  But also like she was like, this is a fun movie, we're having
• 1:26:36
  fun. But also, let's go to other
• 1:26:38
  things. She got very concerned after the
• 1:26:41
  twist where yes, it was revealed that Alexis, like, what her plan
• 1:26:45
  was. And then, should I just - yeah.
• 1:26:49
  So I think maybe tie gives it a 7 Tim.
• 1:26:52
  Yeah, she like it's okay but like you know it's okay.
• 1:26:56
  Could be better. Yeah.
• 1:26:58
  Zoe I thought she was going to be tuned in for this because she
• 1:27:01
  came and she made a big point of trying to get comfortable on the
• 1:27:04
  couch with us. And then as soon as the first
• 1:27:05
  commercial hit because we're watching this on hula with ad
• 1:27:08
  breaks follow us from our financial tips and advice.
• 1:27:12
  Yeah, she left as soon as the first ad hit.
• 1:27:16
  Yeah. Really catcher.
• 1:27:18
  This is like a Slow Burn. Yeah.
• 1:27:19
  And so he doesn't like that. Okay, cool.
• 1:27:23
  Okay. Tagline tagline for this.
• 1:27:34
  Nothing can get in the way between me and my toxic
• 1:27:37
  positivity. Okay, I like it.
• 1:27:40
  Do you like thinking get in the way of?
• 1:27:42
  Wait, wait. This was condensed it a little
• 1:27:44
  bit. That's all.
• 1:27:45
  That's all. I was trying to like, do the
• 1:27:46
  Mantra okay. Nothing can get in the way
• 1:27:48
  between me and my dreams. Okay, hmm, sure, nothing can get
• 1:27:52
  in between me and my dreams. Nothing can get in between me
• 1:27:54
  and my toxic positivity. Okay, because I feel like the
• 1:27:59
  problem with the original tag on him, is they feel like I had to
• 1:28:01
  be new year's theme? Yeah.
• 1:28:03
  No. Miss sound.
• 1:28:04
  Like, you know what, that's not really the core of this movie.
• 1:28:06
  Like let's actually get to like what this movie is about.
• 1:28:09
  I dig it. Okay, all right.
• 1:28:11
  Cool. Okay, you got reviews?
• 1:28:15
  Yes, I have. Okay, so like I alluded to
• 1:28:18
  before, there were several reviews on.
• 1:28:22
  IMDb that appeared to be missing the point and I guess at some
• 1:28:29
  points, you can say, maybe it's bad writing.
• 1:28:33
  But at other points that also just feels very pointed of like,
• 1:28:38
  we don't want to like this movie.
• 1:28:39
  We want something different from it.
• 1:28:41
  Yeah, which is fine, Different Strokes for different folks but
• 1:28:44
  don't like Point, don't harp on this point.
• 1:28:47
  Like it's a problem, you know, when it says, it's not you, it's
• 1:28:50
  just like, it's just the movie. So there were like, a lot of
• 1:28:52
  people that were like, why did they focus so much on her scar?
• 1:28:55
  And then all of a sudden, she didn't have a problem with it.
• 1:28:58
  She all of a sudden, have a problem with it because she had
• 1:29:00
  a way to get into, Show business or you know, whatever you want.
• 1:29:05
  I I feel like in the age of social media influence, you can
• 1:29:08
  call YouTube stuff show business.
• 1:29:09
  I think so too. Yeah, like she had a way to get
• 1:29:12
  into it that she wouldn't have before and not trying to draw a
• 1:29:16
  gendered line to it, but it was a lot of male reviewers that
• 1:29:20
  were making those comments. I figured it would be and then
• 1:29:24
  like why is the shy girl throwing this party?
• 1:29:27
  Shouldn't be one of her more outgoing from.
• 1:29:30
  Well it's three fucking people that she's Been friends with for
• 1:29:33
  decades. So also, you're kind of missing
• 1:29:36
  the point and also, it's not like party.
• 1:29:39
  It's a Revenge plan. Yeah.
• 1:29:40
  So it took a lot to find an actual review that I thought had
• 1:29:45
  points of discussion that we can actually talk about, so let's
• 1:29:48
  hear it. Okay, this is a 4 out of 10 on
• 1:29:51
  IMDb. It's a user of you, okay?
• 1:29:53
  I think in to deliver very well, making it a little slow and
• 1:29:56
  confusing, especially the back story about the suicide.
• 1:29:59
  But still, it has very good comment on social media and how
• 1:30:02
  are Operation to find success. One thing is the public Persona
• 1:30:06
  and a completely different thing is, what goes on in real life,
• 1:30:09
  really enjoyed the ending. Although it was kind of
• 1:30:11
  predictable and you have to appreciate the whole manifesting
• 1:30:15
  and affirmations irony, okay? So they like the premise felt
• 1:30:19
  like it could have been done a little bit differently, huh?
• 1:30:23
  Yeah, I can get that, you know? Like I think that this movie is
• 1:30:27
  fun. Oh yeah, but you know it's just
• 1:30:30
  this is just the movie. Yeah, you know.
• 1:30:32
  It's One of those right there. Again, like this is what it is.
• 1:30:34
  Like, if you don't like it and that's fine, it's just not for
• 1:30:37
  you. And I can understand wanting
• 1:30:40
  more of the backstory to the suicide.
• 1:30:41
  But I also feel like that ambiguity makes it a little bit
• 1:30:46
  more ambiguous as to how complicit Alexis really was.
• 1:30:51
  I guess when you think about it, he actually on equal grounds
• 1:30:54
  with Danielle, maybe. We don't know if you don't want
• 1:30:57
  them to know anything about that.
• 1:30:58
  Like if the whole point is to be guessing them like yeah, I get
• 1:31:02
  it. Like leaving it ambiguous.
• 1:31:04
  Yeah. At the same time.
• 1:31:06
  Like as a viewer is kind of like fuck man.
• 1:31:08
  Like what happened? Like yeah.
• 1:31:10
  What like tell me more about Kelsey, you know.
• 1:31:12
  Yeah. Pushed you should be persons.
• 1:31:14
  Who are wish you like truly a victim because it sounds like
• 1:31:16
  they were all shitty. You know.
• 1:31:19
  It sounds like she had no friends.
• 1:31:20
  In these two girls were like, we can be your friend.
• 1:31:22
  But first, I'm going to tell you all the ways we hate you, okay?
• 1:31:25
  See. I don't just based on the little
• 1:31:27
  bit of dialogue. We got about her gasps you.
• 1:31:29
  Okay. I don't know, the movie needs to
• 1:31:31
  tell me a little bit more. About that too.
• 1:31:33
  Okay. Okay.
• 1:31:34
  And that's where I get it. I get with this person.
• 1:31:36
  Say okay we we didn't do who do you relate to oh Khloe, Khloe
• 1:31:43
  obviously a said multiple times throughout this whole episode
• 1:31:46
  how much? I release Chloe so it's I really
• 1:31:48
  to Chloe I I would say Alexis because of her like aversion to
• 1:31:57
  social media bullshit that Danielle tries to force on
• 1:32:01
  everybody like sticking a camera and everybody's face for every
• 1:32:04
  event like that's obnoxious. And like I get that It was a
• 1:32:09
  little bit more personal between her and Danielle, but at the
• 1:32:12
  same time, it was just nice to see him like that, just get
• 1:32:15
  called out in public and be like, why the fuck are you
• 1:32:17
  doing? This is stupid.
• 1:32:19
  Well, I'm not selling anything to you about this movie is that
• 1:32:21
  I do feel like it. Sometimes is a little bit
• 1:32:22
  wish-fulfillment, like, everything we wanted to say to
• 1:32:25
  that person in our lives. Yeah.
• 1:32:27
  So even though Alexis is not the good guy in this movie, it is
• 1:32:31
  also very light shower for her wanted more than Danielle, we
• 1:32:33
  yeah, yeah, so, okay cool. Alright, that's it for this.
• 1:32:38
  Episode. Do we have any listener,
• 1:32:39
  reviews? We don't have any listener
• 1:32:41
  juice. Nobody's seen this.
• 1:32:43
  I know Mary Beth said that she loves the into this other guy,
• 1:32:46
  so she's aware of the. Yeah.
• 1:32:48
  I believe we could take that as her liking, it potentially.
• 1:32:53
  That could be her. That's her, you.
• 1:32:55
  Thank you. Mary Beth.
• 1:32:57
  We appreciate your contribution. Yeah.
• 1:33:00
  No. I didn't have anybody else that
• 1:33:02
  said anything. Okay.
• 1:33:04
  Okay. Okay so yeah.
• 1:33:07
  I mean that's kind Be expected with mostly these into the dark.
• 1:33:12
  One's this is our second one. Now, we did the fuck was, I call
• 1:33:16
  it my Valentine? Yeah, we did my Valentine for

• 1:33:26
  is also an into the dark. Yeah.
• 1:33:28
  So Alright. Alright.
• 1:33:32
  Well that's it for this one. We already did the front loading
• 1:33:35

• 1:33:36
