• 1:48
  Speaker 1: New Year's Resolution hexscies.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: I didn't like that movie at all.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: I think she needs to rewatch it. Okay, if I
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: expect an issue if I only had Christmas, a movie
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: I really liked even though I had CCB in it
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: and two turtle doves. She's also currently in pre production
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: of a Christmas movie called Rescuing Christmas. Sorry, Rachel Lee Cook,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: I have no idea if it's a Hallmark movie or not.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: We'll see if it lands on the Hallmark channel. Okay.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: We have Nicki Delouch in this movie. She plays Kate.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: The last thing we saw her in was Curious Caterer
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Grilling Season. We are getting a third Curious Caterer movie.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: The tentative title is Curious caterer Last Suppers, but we
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: don't as of the recording of this podcast, have an
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: airdate for the third movie in that series. That's right, I'm.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: Did we come up with the Lost Suppers?
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: Was that one of ours that we I don't think
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: that was fine? Never thinks so I just wish no
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: roast for the Wicked? Do you hear me? I think
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: it would be great? Okay, fine, I'll let it go.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: Michael Rady he plays Eric Smith. I mean Eric Smith,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: can you get I'm a more generic name. We last
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: saw him on Hallmark and Unexpected Grace, which grew some
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: interesting critiques from a few of our Facebook group members.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: We just did listen to our review of that. Lots
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: to talk about that episode.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: He works outside of Hallmark Universe quite a bit, including
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: he's a regular on Magnum p I Chicago, med New Amsterdam.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: But he'll always be that teenage Quty Coastas Coastus Costas
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Coastas from Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, Alexis Ladell's love interests. Yeah, Greek,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: I feel like a real creep saying that too. I'm
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: not trying to be I'm just like he was very
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: cute in that movie. I don't think he was underage
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: in that movie. If that's okay, that makes me feel better.
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: Cutie Don Bruce was played by dog Zip.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: He doesn't have any other words listed on MTV Justice
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: for Zip.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, I just think that's sad. I just loved
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: him with him to work, although he's clearly not a
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: trained dog like he was constantly yanking at that lead.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: This movie was filmed entirely in Savannah, Georgia, quite stunning.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: Loved that as a filming location. All their little walks
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: in the park.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: M hm, real cute. Two more things I want to
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: add here with a question. First, all, this movie got
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: a six point nine out of ten from users on IMDb.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: I feel like that's kind of a low rating too,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: But I think this is like a fan favorite movie. No,
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: all right, those two things don't always like match up. No.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: No.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: I read in the comments or the user reviews on
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: IMDb that sometimes Nikki de Looch always always appears older
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: than her male leads, And I want to know what
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: you think about that. Do you think she appears older
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: or do you think her co stars maybe just look younger?
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: For example, she's forty. No, I just mean, like, do
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: they look are they younger looking dudes? How old are she?
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: And my she is forty three, Rady's forty one, Andrew Walker,
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: for a test is forty three. Okay, so she's basically
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: the same age as all of these men.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna go ahead and say it.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: I think people are agist. I think when women show
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: signs of age, whatever that means. Maybe I think Nikki
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: Delochua looks great. She's forty three. That's how old I am.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: I think they're not treated the same way as men do.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: You're like, oh, look at that sultan.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: Peppery beard, Oh look at those.
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: Crinkles around his eyes.
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: When you're like, hey, lady gets some botox, right, I
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: understand what you're saying.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: I'm wondering, like, I.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: Don't like the idea that we've got a cast an
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: actress who looks younger so that she plays the part
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: of this hot dude. I agree, I absolutely agree, get
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: at it, And I think it's unfair to be she
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: needs to be with an actor who's older, like treat
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: Williams like Hammery Matheson. How old is that dude? Old?
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: I don't know, no way.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: Forty two he's fifty three.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: Oh. I could see people saying, like, you know, he's
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: a young looking fifty three.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: Honestly, he looks That's what I'm saying.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: Dos like Walker and Rady they look younger than their
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: actual age. Yeah. But my point is people were saying like, oh,
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: she looks old. I agree they are that Bite me, okay,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: And I'm not gonna give any weight to this argument.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: It was just a conversation. I wanted to ask because
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: I saw it was a recurring comment on IMDb, and
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: look at users of IMDb are not always the kindest.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: So keyboard Warriors indeed, So, okay, what's your first impression
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: of Love to the Rescue? Have I seen this movie before?
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: Have we? Yeah? Because I remember those rudimentary sketches that
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: she did for the Carnival from something else. Maybe he
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: threw it a Hallmark, maybe I did. And this is
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: what's all trickling back into this brain of mine. My
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: I have been post a New Year's resolution because that
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: particular episode we had friend of the show CALLI on
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: to review, and I remember her saying like how much
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: she loved Michael Rady and how Grady was and like
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: you're baking me crazy, and maybe she mentioned this movie
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: and maybe I watched this movie after that. I don't
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: remember it. I remember some elements of it. Maybe okay,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: but you've never seen it? No, okay, what's your first
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: impression A movie with a dog that doesn't suck?
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: I think so many movies that we've seen in the
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: past couple of years have been chasing the high of.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: Love to the rescue.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: Oh, they're like this remands to the rescue and all
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: these other nonsense dogs movies that are like, we're just
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: gonna put a dog in the movie and that's gonna
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: solve every issue we have with the movie itself. I think,
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: I don't What do you think about having animals play
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: a role in movies? I think it's okay as long
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: as you don't put too much weight on the animal.
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: And since we're moving on to our likes, I think
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: that's one thing this movie does well is that Bruce
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: is central to the movie. His story is central to
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: this movie. But Bruce himself, the dog, is not central
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: to this movie. So much of his story takes place
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: without him even on screen. And I think that's what
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: this movie does well. A dog, but it's a.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: Movie about a dog. It's really not. It's a movie
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: about this relationship, which I understand.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: Whatever they're Eric Anna, I don't remember Kate. You know.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: He'm just saying, you know. But the script revolves around like,
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: this movie doesn't work without Bruce, without the dog. They
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: would need a new premise to bring these two people together,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: and so the entire premise is based on Bruce. Does
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: they could have removed Bruce and just had it be
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: the pta b the pre that they come together. Yes,
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: but I'm not bothered by Bruce's role, and it is
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: neither am I. I love animals, though I've never seen
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: The Nine Kittens of Christmas, and I don't know if
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: I Kimberly Sustin.
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: I love her, but I.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: Just don't know. Tell me what else you like. I
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: thought this movie was very funny, very funny, really like,
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: I think Kate and Eric had great banter. At one point,
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: he's like, maybe dial back to caffeine, and then she
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: shouts back never. There's a scene when Kate is alone
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: watching a movie and a Hallmark movie perhaps yes, and she.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: Goes, oh, he's definitely the one. You've known him for
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: like three weeks.
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I just thought that was There were some great
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: funny lines. And I think Nikki DeLoach is a really
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: good comedic actress, and we don't really see her in
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: that role quite a bit. I mean, with the exception
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: of currieus Cater kind of plays into that. Yeah, I agree,
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: I think she gets the more serious role. I don't
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: think I've seen a roll with her. And where she's serious?
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: Was she in five minutes of something like Last Christmas
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: that I didn't watched Cranberry Christmas.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: It's sad, no serious.
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: It's just a little more serious than lighthearted. I wouldn't
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: say it's sad. It's like a couple who is divorced,
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: but it's you.
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: Know, not this new love got it?
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: Let me put it on my list hair and you
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: know who did it? Nikki Dilloch, Benjamin a ers h Okay,
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: no comment, but don't.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: Let it meet you're here.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: I will agree that did we alread talk about this?
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: There were some funny things in this movie. I thought
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: it was pretty funny. Well because when I said it
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: was very funny, your face went did I say it?
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: I don't know, like laugh out loud. I thought it
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: was enjoyable, Hallmark funny. It was Hallmark funny. Yeah, like
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: when she's like, I live on Dogwood Lane, can't make
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: this up on I don't remember, Yes, I rewind it.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: I thought that was lying. We're delivered very naturally, and
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: I don't think that's necessarily an easy thing to do.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: I love Michael Radie. I just find him so charming
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: and it must be like his boy next door look
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: or something. At one point he tells her to have
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: sweet dreams, and I swoon pretty much. I was like,
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: oh who am I? But yeah, having like an adult
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: man tells me to have sweet dreams never has happened
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: in my life. I don't know that everybody could pull
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: that off. Oh so good. It was real good. I
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: really connected with Kate's involvement with the PTA because she
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: goes to this meeting and they're like, you're gonna run
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: the Silent Auction, and everybody in the PTA knows that
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: the newcomer shows up and you give them the least
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: desirable yep job, which is absolutely the silt Auction because
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: asking people to donate free stuff is a nightmare. And
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: also the attitude that she's just gonna know what that means,
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: like you're going to run the silent auction.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: They give her no information.
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: I have had this exact experience where they're like, here's
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: this very large job, and we're not going to actually
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: tell you how to do it or how it's been
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: done in the past. We're going to expect you to
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: do it to the way we like it done. We
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: have one on this scriptwriting staff has been in a PTA,
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: absolutely and I wrote that down. She got bamboozled into
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: being the silent auction chair. No one wants that job.
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: If you are not familiar with fundraising activities in the
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: PTA or any sort of organization where you have to
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: be a silent chair person, silent auction chair, forget it.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: Asking for free stuff is the worst.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: There baces none of the time they say no, yes,
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: it's awful. It's just easier to ask people to create
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: a basket out of their.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: Own money and donate it.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: Like, I agree, agree. I love when Hallmark gives us
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: rom coms. Yeah, I like the comms better than the ROMs,
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: so I find that enjoyable.
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: I wish this was a rom com for you.
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: Yes, I wish they did more rom coms. Don't you agree? Yeah,
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: don't you get tired of the same like.
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: Love happy ending.
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: Yes I do, and I said, do I so give
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: me more? I've got too much rom so boring. How
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: much did you love Kate and Liam the kids? Ye oh,
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: Kate and her ex husband Liam.
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: I actually really love them.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: I was like, way to show like healthy co parenting. Yeah,
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: and they were not just like co parents who tolerated
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: each other for the sake of their daughter.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: They were actually friends, right.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: He was totally in her corner, rooting for her. I thought, man,
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: this is the ex husband. You want what I want
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: to get divorced and I'm an ex husband like that.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: It's not I can't pliment that those were the kids. No, Yeah,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: he was a good guy. I liked it.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: I did to that.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: I like their relationship. I mean, obviously they knew each
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: other since they were teenagers and so on and so forth,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: and they had like a very comfortable relationship. They just
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: didn't work out as married people. Speaking of the kids,
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: I didn't hate them in this movie, I wondered, are
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: you surprised?
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: I am.
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: I thought they were both solid actors. Now I need
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: you to clear this up for me. The girl was ten?
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: Was the boy ten?
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: I thought he played kind of younger. They didn't seem
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: to know each other before, so maybe over the dog.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: So I assume that they were not like in each
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: other's class, Okay, because like at one point, he's wearing
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: like a cape and I was like, doesn't that seem
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: sort of young for a ten year old?
• 14:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah? I hear you.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: So their relationship was more like brothers who the kids. Yeah, fine,
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: they weren't peers. Yes. My point is that I feel
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: like they made him younger than he was. Actually he
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: might have been ten years old in real life, because
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: he had like I remember when they were doing like
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: there are pitches to the parents and the daughter made
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: a second power point and he had like sketches that
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: looked like a kindergarten drew. So I hear it just
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: was weird, that's all. Okay, you know the kids, what
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: I thought was so funny.
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: I don't know if you noticed this.
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: Often when the kids would leave the frame, they would
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: like dance out of the frame where they'd do like
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: a little like move out of the frame. Oh no,
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: they'd run off and he would do like a karate
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: kick on the way, or she would leave and her
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: dad had brought back that like instrument from Balie and
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: she was like chickshake shake dance, hikeshake shaked.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: It like just on their way up kids. Yeah, it
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: was fun, that's nice.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: I said it earlier. But the scenery was stunning, the
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: huge canopy trees. I want to live here, yes, ma'am?
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: Can we move to there? Do you want to?
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: Is Georgia on your husband's list at all? No?
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: I have been there. It's too hot, too hot, truly.
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: The hottest I've ever been is the two days I
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: spent in Atlanta. I've never been hotter in my time. Okay, well,
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: pass fun, but it was sure.
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: Party feels like a sausage. Ooh, I don't want to.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: Ever feel like that.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: Yikes, what'd you wish for?
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: I thought this storytelling was a little uneven. Let me explain.
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: You have Eric, who's this like type a personality, right,
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: and then we have Kate who's like this like arty,
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: free spirited girl. And at the beginning they they show
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: us like these two personalities clash because remember she's like
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: he's so friendly with like everybody else, but with me,
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: he's so like do you remember do you remember this?
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: And then like all that falls to the wayside, like
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: it's not even like a part of the story anymore.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: It's like shifts to like Eric's dreams of becoming whatever
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: he wants to be in his professional life. Okay, and
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: then what turn it Kate's like inability to fall in
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: love and be a parent at the same time. So
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: it was like we got two different like it.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: Started out one way, but it fully ended the other way.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: Okay, I didn't I her like adherence to like I'm
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: not a fan of the rules was like yeah throughout yeah, yeah, yeah, So.
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: I think they held on to that.
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: And I think also his like he's like, I got
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: this job, it serves a purpose. I can't chase my
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: dream because it's a little scarier than the bird I have.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: In my hand.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: I think that follows the type a ness of it.
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: All right, However, put a pin in that, because the
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: thing that I wished for is that Kate didn't immediately
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: jump to the end of the world, like this guy
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: is falling because your kids are like we could have
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: this dog together.
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, Eric's.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: Not the person needed to have a conversation with. It's
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: your children need to be like, look back off, we're friends. Yeah,
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: even if there were a romance here. There's ten steps
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: between where we are today and this future you've imagined
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: where we're one big co parenting family with Bruce. That's
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: who you needed to have the conversation with. Yeah, I agree,
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: And to the point of their personalities, it seems more
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: like Eric would be the one who's like, this is
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: a bad idea.
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: Rules, rules, rules, when.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: She's like, let's just see what could happen. But of
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: course it feeds into her everything I do. I do
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: for my daughter. If it was on her before my
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: own happiness, I just didn't think. I'm watching this happen
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: and them deciding to go for a relationship, and I'm thinking, oh,
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: what's going to be the conflict? And then we get
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: them at the park and she's like, we need to talk,
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: And I thought, what a total disappointment of a moment.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: When she says that to him, I felt it in
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: my heart, like I've had that heartbreak where you're caught
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: off guard by the breakup that you didn't see company.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: Something else I wish for is could they just.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: Have made a decision about the dog?
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Like, I think it's unfair for an animal to
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: not have consistency. Yes, I wrote, I wish that I
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: knew his actual fate, like there's gonna yeah, but they
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: were married at the end, right, I think I saw
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: like a wedding ring. It doesn't really matter. The dog rescue,
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: I think put Bruce in a bad position, Like you're
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: taking this dog who's been in a shelter for an
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: extended period of time, and you're now going to make
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: him bounce back and forth between two homes so that
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: he can find the right foster.
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: No, I'm sorry, that.
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: Is a completely weasily way to solve this problem. Also,
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: I hated the short cartoon, like it wasn't that good, right.
• 19:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I wasn't. I was like, huh, look at this.
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: I did kind of like a little bit of the
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: they tried. I don't envy the position there in here,
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: Like she's an animator. We've got to show her doing
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: her job, but we're not actually animators, So how.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: Do we do this?
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: I liked that they tried and that we actually got
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: that like short film at the end and they show.
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: Like her doing some of the drawing.
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: But I I agree, it's twenty twenty three.
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: It wasn't great.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: It was not great. My final wish is after the
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: they premiere the short, they have like a panel and
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: she decides to turn it into like a therapy session
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: and talking about love and her love has affected her
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: and her love is giving up. Yeah, it was funny
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: because I had forgotten that in that scene they're broken up,
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: She's like, I've met someone who's changed the way. And
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: I was like, wait a minute. She broke it off
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: with him. He's only in the audience. Yes, she invited
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: him and the kids did their like tribute to get
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: in there. But I kind of forgotten that moment that
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: she's just going for it with this person who she's
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: not even actually dating. So you enjoyed that part then, No,
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: I was like, what's happening like this?
• 20:44
  Speaker 2: This is too much.
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: After the fact, when she and Eric made up, I'm like,
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: wait a minute, you just had this big moment with
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: a person that you're not even in a relationship with.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: You just declared your love on stage for this man
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: because she realized that she messed up with breaking it off.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: Gotta have that big moment.
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah I did. I did not like that, Like I
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: was thinking, like the host was like, where are you
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: going with this lady?
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: Shut up. We got other people to ask questions too.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: Can we move on?
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: Did you see that please? Speaking of her digital drawing
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: the frog and the clip art, I don't know what
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: was happening there, Like, did you see that? It was
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: fines Yes, it just was like I think there's some
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: bad animation there where they're like trying to like draw
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: the parts of the frog that would move.
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know how animation works.
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: I don't either, but they showed her drawing like those
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: frogs legs over and over.
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: And over again.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: It's weird, weird, and I'm gonna I talked about it
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: at the top. But when she is pitching to the
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: PTA meeting about having like a themed carnival.
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: Where's the money for that coming from?
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: Right?
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: For those of us who have been on the PTA
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: knows how. Yeah, She's like, I'll let you worry about
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: the budget.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: I'm like, that's all fine and good, but you need
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: to have money to start with. Yes, exactly. But I
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: want to point out that her draw were so terrible
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: for someone who was an artist. Was like, we're gonna
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: do this Candyland theme and it was like stick figures.
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: It was she not drawing them on the fly.
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: No, the second presentation, I don't remember.
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: She had like a big capoard.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: And she was like showing them. Yeah, I's not good.
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: But see, these are things that I'm paid to look
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: for in movies. We're just picking, we're picking. I don't
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: have anything, you have nothing, all right, what do you
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: give this movie? I gave it four stars. I gave
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: it three point seven to five. I didn't hate it.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: I really like Michael Rady and I really liked Nikki Delouche.
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: I thought they were a great pairing.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: I maybe didn't like the story so much. I don't know.
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I liked it.
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: It was comfortable. If it was on, I would fully
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: put it on like and do things around the house,
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: especially to hear that Sweet dreams so good. Someone commented
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: in the IMDb, so nice to see Nikki DeLoach with
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: someone other than Andrew Walker. But they've only been five
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: movies other it'll be sick soon. A lot of movies.
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: It is a lot of movies.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: But but but in that same name, I only want
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: to watch Paul Campbell and Kimberly Sasta together.
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: They're your one true pairing.
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like you know, we're in like the olden days
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: when they would have like movies with like an actor
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: and an actress like all the time, Yes, kind of
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: like Cooney and Julia Robbert turn of movies together.
