• 0:03
  Speaker 1: women in them, are all their discussions just boyfriends and husbands?

• 0:39
  Speaker 1: Cast talk about the portrayal of women in movies. We
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: use the Bechtel test as a jumping off point to
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: initiate a larger conversation about the representation of women. Attack.
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: It is a test that you apply to a movie.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: It requires that a movie has two named female identifying characters.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: They have to speak to each other, and that conversation
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: couldnot be about men. Very few movies past this very
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: simple test that doesn't sound that hard to pass. But
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: the thing is that movies hate women, and movies don't
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: like women to be in them. Can we baite a

• 3:52
  Speaker 1: what is your history your relationship with ten Things I
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Hate about you? Um? Our relationship with this movie is
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: honestly a con me. It cond me as a child
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: because I wasn't in high school when this came out.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: I think I was pretty young, and I thought that
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: I was gonna get to high school and everybody was
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: gonna be twenty eight with a connecting beer and finest fun.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: And I was ready. My little loins were ready. And
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: then I got there and I was like, y'all, look corny,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: y'all cornballs. Like nobody was fine, every sweating nobody, but
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: nobody was heath Ledger, nobody. No one was close at all.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: No one was paying someone else to take you out
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: on dates exactly. We have no heath Ledger, no heat
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: bar even. And it wasn't all activities activity. I never
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: went pay balling. I was never nobody's like or river. Right.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: A date was like, Oh, we're gonna go to the
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: Chick fil a. We're literally going to the nearest fast food. Right,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: We're sitting there and being excited that our parents let
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: us out of the house Like that was it. It
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: was so disappointing. So sorry, this does really prep you
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: for a very fake gas version of high school but
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: simply does not happen. Jamie, what's your relationship? Your history?
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: Saw it yesterday? I saw yesterday. Like most movies we've covered,
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: I was like, I'll get around to this one, but
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: I didn't. I think part of the reason I avoided
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: it was because I just didn't grow up watching movies
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: that much, and so I didn't know much about this
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: movie until he let heard already died, and I'm like, oh, man,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: if this movie sucks, then I'll think less of him
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: and he can't redeem himself in my eyes, which is
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: what was being dead and all deceased. Maybe I'll just
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: not watch it, which is kind of like backwards. To
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: honor him, I'm going to disengage from his working time,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: give him the chance to not fail in my eyes.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: I also used to have a thing with not like
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: Julia Stiles. Was that like a thing or was that
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: just me being rude? I don't really know. I don't
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: remember how people viewed her because she this was kind
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: of her like prime and then listen like, well she
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: wasn't saved the last dance, which I haven't seen him forever.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: And then the people enjoyed her. We enjoyed Julia. Jes yes,
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: I have to save the last dance. We were like,
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: you're all right, Julia, you missed it. I do appreciate
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: her wrapping the A cups. Uh, you know, it's nice
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: to see someone with A cups get laid. That's always good. Yeah, yeah,
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: it's always good felt seen. Now think about it, Julia
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: really doesn't like her whole body and face is very regulars. Yeah,
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: like she's not. It's kind. It's really dope to say that,
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: just like you don't have to have the you know
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: of a garbage breasts or j low booty to be
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: in a movie and get kissed on by heath led
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: So that's nice. It's good to I like living in
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: the fantasy world where it's like, no heath let her
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: lives for a cups, Like you're not all engage with
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: that fantasy shirt. Yeah, my stay with this movie. It
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: came out in nine. I was thirteen, so I was
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: like the right age to be like watching this movie,
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: like gobbling it up. I think I saw it right
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: around the time that it came out. But I didn't
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: like this wasn't a movie that I like watched over
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: and over or anything like that. I saw it probably
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: twice in my teenage years. I was too busy being like,
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: I'm a cool girl who watches Indiana Jones every day.
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: I don't have time for this like high school movie stuff. Um,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: I know it's one of those cool girls who weren't
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: like the other girls, a little different from the other girls.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: You know what, Sorry, everybody, but that is I thought
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: I was. I thought I was that girl too, And
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: like I I kind of like shop at Hot Topics sometimes,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: like they're like, like you mean, like every other Stephen
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: Masseroni worked at Hot Topic and he was cute. I
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: just went in there to look at naked stuff. Yeah,
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: they had time. They had a lot of soft porn
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: and hot time. I don't make a birthday cars at times,
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: we're just going to get three. I have Cinemax. So
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: I saw this a couple of times as a teenager
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: and then didn't revisit it until the other day. And
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: I've watched this movie three times in a row since then.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna I like this movie. I didn't think that
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: I did, but after having me, it's like so much
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: funnier than I remembered. It's like, man, I mean, it's
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: oh god, there's a lot to unpack. There's a lot
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: for us to discuss. But I have a fondness for
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: this movie that I was not expecting to have. There's like,
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: this is one of these movies where I think if
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: I saw it they were like right time. If I
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: had seen it like high school time, I would love it.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: But I don't know. I guess fine, And it's like
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: all these like Shakespeare and adaptations are just like You're like, yeah,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: that's probably not going to be that good for women.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: Chances are it was written originally in fifteen What a
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: fucking whatever. Yeah, I'm a genius. It has been so
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: many She's the Man, which which is on our list
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: of things to cover. Hopefully we get to it soon,
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: ran King. But this is Taming of the Shrew, right, Yeah.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: And I have not read the Taming of the Shrew,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: but I did read the first few paragraphs of the
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Wikipedia article about it. So I'm basically a scholar who
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: master's degree. I have a master's degree in specifically the
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: Wikipedia article of the Taming of the True. I just
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: want to read an excerpt from it where it basically
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: just describes the plot of that play. The main plot
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: depicts the courtship of Petruccio and Katharina the headstrong, obdurate shrew. Initially, initially,
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: Katharina is an unwilling participant in the relationship. Hot However,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: this is a comedy, right, this is his comedy. This
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: is not a horrid movie. This is a comedy. However,
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: Petruccio quote unquote tames her with various psychological torments, such
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: as keeping her from eating and drinking until she becomes
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: a desirable, compliant, and obedient bride. Oh my god, that
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: is it's the happy ending. Have either of you read
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: the play not for a long time years ago? Yeah,
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: like in high school. It's so weird that they would
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: let high school girls read that play of like and
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: this is the greatest ride of old time. And you're like,
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: he's starving her and killing her and it's a comedy.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: Well that's horrifying. That's good to hear. So the movie
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: a movie seems to leave some of that, like you know,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: torture behind and it takes a little bit of a
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: different direction. So have changed little bit, Like now in
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: back the director's cut has Julia Stile starving like she
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: started with d cups and then he lunch starved her.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: At least it's not like the Shakespeare adaptation, like with this,
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: what's like the balls lumin Isn't he Australian? Yes? He
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: did like Romeo plus Juliette, and it was like, it's
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: exactly Romeo and Juliette, but they're wearing Hawaiian shirts for
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: some reason. You're just like, Okay, I guess yeah, i
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: mean Shakespeare the adaptations of Shakespeare throughout the ages they're
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: lion King is great. Nel Gibson's in a Hamlet movie. Whatever.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: So so the movie Ten Things I Hate About You
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: takes this basic concept of having to tame a shrew,
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: and you know, takes it takes in a little bit
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: different of her direct She so beause she just wants
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: to think on her own, live her own life. He
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: was like, she can read, don't give her exactly, so
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: I'll do. The recap of the movie takes place in
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: a high school in the Greater Seattle area. Yeah, real
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: Frasier vibes. At the top of this movie, You're like,
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: oh space, Suddenly, I'm like Niles where are you okay?
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: So we meet Cat. That's Julia Styles character. Um. She
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: is a feminist, killed joy who hates everyone. She's a senior,
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: I think in high school. Her sister, Bianca, who is
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: a sophomore, is is played by the girl who played
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: Alex Mack on Nicolo. Oh yeah, I don't watch that
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: show together. Yeah a little girl detective. So Bianca is
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: a sophomore. She is popular and she wants to date boys.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: Their dad does not want either of them to date
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: anyone because he does not like women to have agency
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: or autonomy over their bodies. Their dad is also played
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: by the same guy who plays the Stylist and the
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: Princess Diary is Paolo Putinesca. And their mom's dead, right,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: their mom, she seems like she left. She did maybe
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: they like she died, but then later they say she left.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure. I think she left that I think
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: no explanation provided because he was like that scene where
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: Alex Mack is wearing the pearls and Julia Styles is like,
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: why are you wearing those pearls and they're like she's
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: not coming back, which I was like, oh so she right,
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: Like no, she just didn't like you. Like, I don't know,
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: she just abandoned though I don't know she doesn't want
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: to come back and left all of her drink its right,
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: like she just left in the night stuff back, Like
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: what's she could have like a beeper or something. I
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: don't know. Either way, they're they're kind of Disney Princess
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: because they don't have a momp. Yeah, their dad comes
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: up with the rule that if kat who hates everyone,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: if she dates, then Bianca is allowed to date. Old
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: way to like communicate to your own daughter that you
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: find her to be unfuckable. It's like this, which I'll
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: never get a man, So my hot daughter that I
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: have a crush on can't go on dates either. Get
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: your chastity belts on, girls, put that bread down. Charlity.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: Chastity is the name of the Gabrielle Union's character. Yeah,
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: so that's fun time boy. She was not Chase. She
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: is not like Chastity. And then what's Bianca. I'm gonna
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: keep calling her Alex Mack. But yeah, like there, their
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: characters are all over the place where when you meet
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: them they're like, oh, they're so dumb they can barely walk,
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: but then later they're like, no, we're smart and but
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: we just want to have sex, which I like way better,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: but there's still some moments where they're like, we're too
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: dumb to live. They're beautiful and evil and its beautiful
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: women are oh goodness, okay. So then, um Cameron, that
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: is Joseph Gordon Lovett's character. He wants to date Bianca
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: and she tells him of this new development where she
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: can date if her sister kept if she finds a date. Meanwhile,
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: there's a character named Joey Donner who also wants to
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: date Bianca, and Bianca wants to date Joey right back. Oh,
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: Joey's the hot guy who always has a fifty dollar
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: bill on him. He's so rich and so hot. You've
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: got a Crisp fifty in his back pocket and that's
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: a lot of money in high school. Yeah, also in
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: the ninety nine inflation exactly. Um So Cameron and his
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: friend Michael, who looks forty and it's distracting and really
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: does grown nast man. He's on his second marriage. He
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: panted house support before lunch and they're like, what do
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: you know, I gotta go see my wife. Like he's
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: grown as fuck. It's like for the first two seas,
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: I genuinely thought Joseph Gordon Levitt's friend was his guidance
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: cow fire, Like, why is this guidance counselor hanging out
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: with a student so much? And he's like, I'm fourteen.
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: I'm like, no, you are good to drive, like the duy.
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: This is a David Krumholtz. But sorry, David look old.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: So then so Cameron and Michael identify this guy, Patrick
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: Heath Ledgers. They're like, oh, this Patrick guy, he might
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: be a good candidate for someone to date Cat. Now
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: Patrick is a bad boy and he is not into
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: this idea. So Cameron's like, oh, well, maybe we could
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: pay him to date Cat. And here's where the story
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: gets a little fun, where he's like, well, I'm I'm
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: a little poor, so sure I'll invoke the oldest like
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: the eighties slash nineties classic trope of let's trick a
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: woman for the whole movie, not apologize, and then get
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: to be her boyfriend at the end. So many movies, Yeah,
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: refer back to our she's all that episode or more
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: information on that um so. But because Cameron doesn't have
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: any money, he needs a financial backer, so he goes
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: to Joey the like do she model boy his butt fifties?
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: Joe back pocket fifties, And He's like, oh, if you
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: pay Patrick to date Cat, then Joey you will have
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: a shot at dating Bianca. And Joey's like a great idea.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: So then that all kind of unfolds where Patrick tries
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: to ask out Cat, she's not into it. Cameron and
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: Michael go to Patrick to help him out. There's like
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: a big party where like everyone starts to be like,
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: oh can Patrick? That party scene is exactly how I
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: thought high school parties were going to be, and never
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: very were. It was always Mark Joseph's basement, twelve kids
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: sharing one four logo and dry humping each other. Well,
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: I've played Mario party in the corner with my other
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: virgin friends. That's how my party today. I will have
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: to say that my high school parties were like those parties.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: Really they got to go to like one but yeah,
• 18:25
  Speaker 1: where did you guy named Christo Print's house? I grew
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: up in Frisco, Texas, which is like north of Dallas,
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: and his dad was a cop and retrospectively, my black
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: as shouldn't have been over there, but his dad was
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: a cop and then he would like, let us drink
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: and use the hot to like party and yeah, so
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: I have gone to at least one high school party
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: did look like that. So those they do exist, they're
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: not they do exist. They do exist. We just were
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: never invited, we weren't called. We did exist mostly in
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: Mark Joseph's basement. Mark Joseph just had a jowful. It
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: was probably a party happened like no, no, no, no no no,
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: but my pacement gonna be lit tonight. Listen, I got
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: half an old English Okay, were all gonna drink SIPs
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: at the cap Oh gosh. So at that party, like
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: Cat and Patrick start to kind of bond a little bit,
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: and then Bianca and Cameron are like bonding a little bit,
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: and he gets a little kissed at the end of
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: the at the end of the night, and then I do,
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: that's my kiss sound I do? I cannot really sets
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: me off. I can't I do this a lot. I
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: can't take credit for it. That is my best friend
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: and friend of the cast, J. T. Taylor. That is
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: his joke that I have stolen from. There's the o
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: G slurpere. He started doing it every time straight people
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: kissed on TV or in movies, so then I just
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: started doing it anyway. So the teenagers are there, horny
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: and they're starting to get together and crazy. So then
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: Kat and Patrick's relationships starts to develop. But then at
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: prom of course, because there cannot be a teenage movie
• 20:18
  Speaker 1: that does not end in prom well, we'll get there,
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: she finds out that Joey had paid Patrick to date her,
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: so she gets mad, and then he buys her a guitar,
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: does not verbally apologize, bribes her, and then she's like, okay,
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: we can kiss. There's well there's in the very last scene,
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: she's in the middle of asking him for an apology,
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: and then he like, he just starts kissing her again,
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: like this is why people don't like you. Those lips
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: are full demanding respect and ship like just like ants
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: on her head, and you're like, oh man, that was
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: a funny example because the guys never apologize in these
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: kind of stories. But the thing that she was literally
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: in the middle of being like, you know, that wasn't
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: cool and yeah, and he was like, so he led
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: your you know, what's you gonna do demand but your respect?
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: Or are you going to make out? He led you
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: like me, what's your car? It's like he's like, the
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: guy's got ten years. He doesn't have time to be
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: apologizing to people. You just let him do anything new,
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: no apology, just kiss his situation everything. All right, Well
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: is the story. Let us take a quick break and
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: we will be back for the discussion. And we're back.
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: I have a question, yeah, because maybe I just wasn't
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: paying as close attention as I should have. But like
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: ten Things I Hate about You comes like the title
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: with the ten things comes up at the very end,
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: and Julia styles is shitty poem. But as I ever
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: mentioned before, then of like I wonder what ten things
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: I Hate about You are? No, that's I think the
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: only reference never set up. It's like if someone named
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: a movie like they named podcast, like this was the highlight,
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: this is the highlight, gonna do with the movie, but
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: this is highlight. So weird title. That was one thing
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: that I like Struth. That poem sucks so bad that
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, a teenager could have written that poem.
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: It was authentic. Yeah, I wrote comparably shitty poems. But
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: it's weird because she spends the whole movie using such
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: like verbose language and like waxing poetic the whole time.
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: It's like, surely you could have used some of that vocabulary.
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: You have to like put that into your English projects.
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: These are things she goes a real basic love the teacher,
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: the black teacher, a black guy. He can only have
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: eight lines. He's just he's mean to her too. He's
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: mean to her. He's mean to her. He is like
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: their first scene together is like kind of cool though cool,
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: but at the end when she does the shitty poem,
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: it's like, who's gonna get up a dude eight poem?
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: And she's like, I will, like a bit so made
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: her at the end. That's why he's start out of
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: his class. I think at least twice. Yeah, he's never
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: every time she opens about these like I actually am
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: going to need you to your kissing me off. He's
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: equal opportunity mean though, because he also makes Joey taking
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: sunglasses off. Yeah yeah, he got his ass feet by
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: Alex Mack. So this might be a good place to
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: start that scene where she where Cat has a conversation
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: with Mr Morgan is his name? It like pretty well
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: sets up who she is as a character. So the
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: teachers like what everyone think of this. On Officer Rises,
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: there's a girl who's like, I loved it, He's so romantic,
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: and then Cat, I hate that girl. In an English class,
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: It's like, I love this man beat the ship out
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: of a woman every day of his life, but I
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: think we should give him a chance. Charles Murkowski is
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: very cool, Like that's pretty much what Cat says. She's
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: like romantic hemingway, he was an abusive, alcoholic misogynists who
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: squandered half his life hanging out with Picasso, trying to
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: nail his followers. And then Joey says, as opposed to
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: a better, self righteous hag who has no friends. So
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: Cat being like, yeah, you're um like the feminist kill joy,
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: and then Joey's like, no one likes you. Every time
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: she says something like vaguely feminist, people are like, who
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: is this reptile? Like, get her out of here. The
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: names that she gets called throughout the movie are a bitch,
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: a heinous bitch, a shrew, a wretch, a loser, antisocial,
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: a difficult woman, psycho, wretched, and I think I'm missing some.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: Alison Janny is the one who calls her a hain
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: is bit is crazy. She's such a problematic guy didn't know.
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: She's way too involved. She stares at the kids genitals.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: There's like a scene where she's like looking at Heath
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: Ledgers Dick because she's having a horny like fan fit
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: and erotic fan fiction. Super producer Sophie noticed last night
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: too that Alison Janny looks exactly like Dolores Umbridge from
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: the Harry Potter movies and ten things, and she's like
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: wearing like the pink suit and has like the bat haircut. Yeah,
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: but it's like funnier and and the oh and the pearls.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah she had, Yeah, she has that. She
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: invented the look before J K Rowling that notorious. What
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: a shrew, What a shrew, What a hainous bitch. So
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: the rest of that scene in the classroom. So then
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: Kat says, I guess in this society, being male and
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: an asshole makes you worthy of our time? What about
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: Sylvia Plath or Charlotte Bronte or Simone de Beauvoir And
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: Patrick our friend Heath Ledger burst into the classroom and
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: says what did I miss? And cats like the oppressive
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: patriarch or values the dictator education, and he's like good
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: and then he leaves again, which I love that joke.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: He's like all caught up. And then Mr Morgan gives
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: this monologue where he's like, oh, you're a white girl
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: who's like rich and entitled. Maybe like next time you
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: go to a PTA meeting you could ask them why
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: they don't buy any books written by a black man. Like,
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: So this whole scene it has it all but everything
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: he Ledger enters in accents and then there is some
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: Heath just threw him in. Look for a second, people
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: are going to get tired. So there's like there's a
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: comment on like feminism and the patriarchy and misogyny, there's
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: comment on race. This whole scene basically establishes how much
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: of a like buzz kill Cat is because she has
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: like strong opinions and speaks out against the patriarchy. But
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: I do like that it's she's also kind of like
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: put in her place of being like a privileged white
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: girl by her teacher because it's like, at the end
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: of the day, like both of Bianca and Cat Julia styles,
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: they're both fucking rich and like a lot of the
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: reason they can even when Julia Styles's character like rebels
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: against the patriarchy. She does it in like kind of
• 27:39
  Speaker 1: privileged ways, like hitting Joey's car. It's like, Okay, that's cool,
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: and that's like putting a shitty dude in his place.
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: But also, you wouldn't do that if you didn't know
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: your dad was going to pay for the damages, Like
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: you can't just I don't know. Then you have to
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: physically hit his car with your face. You have to
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: fight your car. Too poor to actually hit your car
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: with my car because she wouldn't have a car, and
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: so she's like trying to fight your car, fight your
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: which would have been more entertaining. Yeah, I would love
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: to see Julia a car. So that's kind of the
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: setup of her character and how like everyone else used
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: her and the whole idea the movie is similar to
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: what it sounds like the Taming of the True is,
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: is that like she needs to be softened up, like
• 28:31
  Speaker 1: she's too bitchy, like no one likes her, so we
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: need Heath Ledger to come along and you know, show
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: her how to be nicer. She needs to be tricked by,
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: which is also such a fucking guy fantasy that like
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: you can pay a guy. This is more realistic for women. You.
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: I feel like you could probably more realistically pay a
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: woman to seduce a man than you could pay a
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: guy to seduce a woman. You're not good at it?
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: That fine? Really, Yeah you tricked me out of here,
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: which your magical dick like like, but men love that
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: notion that they think, they think it's real that they
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: could trick a woman into falling love. It's like that's
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: what we do to y'all every day we talk about
• 29:14
  Speaker 1: It's called your trophy wife. You know, your big ugly
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: ass wouldn't be with that. Fine, Ask any woman if
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: you handle day of money? She gone you there's yeah,
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: and like good for her? I don't know, great for her.
• 29:24
  Speaker 1: I'm just tired of like I mean, I guess some
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: jiggalows some there are some men out here who probably
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: could like slang it around and well there's a whole
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: industry of like pickup artist. Oh yeah, that works great,
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: doesn't it. They're always the game, Ugly. I have a
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: horrifying confession to make. Are you a pickup artist? I've
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: been magging you for years? No, I slept with someone
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: who had I like woke up and I was like,
• 29:49
  Speaker 1: oh my god, there's I'm I'm literally next to a
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: copy of the game with golden bossed pages. It was
• 29:56
  Speaker 1: a really nice copy of the game. It was an
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: anniversary edition of the game. Did you steal it and
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: burn it? No? I slipped out and I haven't been
• 30:03
  Speaker 1: heard from since. But it was what Oh god, pick
• 30:07
  Speaker 1: up artists? Bad bad, bad bad well, um so cat.
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: The other thing about her is that because she's like
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: a feminist, she's also like painted as this like frigid
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: woman who would never want a day like exactly, why
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: are there so many movies where it's a teen boy
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: tricking a teen girl and then he's the love interest.
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: It's like weird. I started this off as a con
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: but then I fell in love, like I caned by
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: my own con My heart conned me, and now I
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: got feelings. Now I got feelings, and lucky for you,
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: I got feelings right where You're like that, But that's
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: always how it's presented to He's like, well, now I
• 30:52
  Speaker 1: have feelings for you, so congratulations, you got me. I
• 30:57
  Speaker 1: was trying to get you and you got me, and
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: now you're stuck with me and you have to be
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: my girlfriend, even though I've already established I'm a fucking liar.
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: I think this is how men feel about falling in
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: love though, Like they're like, oh, I just came to fucking,
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: you know, steal money out of your purse. But but
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: then I said to love you girl. Those lips on
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: your face, they're good for more the sex pleasure. What
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: telling me I'm cool? You can push some real complimentary
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: words about me out of that face of yours? Right? Uh?
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: Not not? It doesn't bode well for Keith. There's a
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: Keith for Heath Jesus Christ r R I P. Clearly
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: I'm very in best leg Hidden brother sounds like a
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: conspiracy here. Keith is still laughing on the Island Way Leisure.
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: It's a real thing. You can't see the Keith Ledger
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: hologram show. That's now my new favorite expiracy period. The
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: ways he goes after like wooing her also so interesting
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: to me. Yeah he paid the band off, yeah right, yeah,
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: with Joey's CRISP fifty. So now he's he's back in,
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: you know, in the red like he's not making any
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: money anymore. Well yeah, yeah, so I guess you could
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: argue that because he doesn't actually take the money and
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: spend it on himself. That was apology. It's a wash.
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: I made no money off it. Is there that whole
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: scene where he like, I know that's like one of
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: the big like i'd seen that scene even though I've
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: never seen the movie with like the marching band, and yeah,
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: like but the way that scene unfolds is so weird
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: because it's the Julia Styles character. The second heath Ledger
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: starts to fringe her on the rag, she changes as
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: a person entirely as these movies go, where it's like
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: two weeks earlier, if he had pulled that thing with
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: the marching band, she would have been horrified and disgusted
• 33:18
  Speaker 1: by it. But after he, you know, like whatever, kisses
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: her one time, she's like, oh my gosh, this is
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: so nice. But then there's also like cops chasing heath Ledgers.
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: They're also like a professional stadium, like who'se high school
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: got a colosseum for them to do soccer practicing, Like
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: it was a big as we had like three bleachers
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: put together, like the sounds like lawn chairs. Like their
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: school looks like Hogwarts. It's really crazy. I was like,
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: where did they shoot this? And then like the p
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: A system is like real popping. I do love when
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: they spoof that scene though in Not Another Team Movie
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: looks like Jamie's got a good and like Jamie's girl,
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh. Yeah. But the romantic pursuit in this
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: movie is problematic and much like so many other romantic
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: pursuits we see in movies, where like Patrick has to
• 34:20
  Speaker 1: wear her down, like she keeps saying no at first,
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: he keeps trying, he keeps pushing past the no. He
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: like shows up by her car and I'm parking lot.
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: He shows up at this club that she's at the show,
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: like he stops her and he's and like he's talking
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: about the game. Like this guy is negging her at
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: every turn. There's that towards the end where he follows
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: her to Guitar Center and Barnes and Noble, which is
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: such a high school day that it kills me, just
• 34:47
  Speaker 1: like we're two places I can just spend an hour
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: and for no fucking reason. But you know, he's like
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: following her and staring at her through a bookcase and
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: she says like you're so and he's like what charming
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: and she's like unwelcome And then he just negs her
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: the whole scene, and it just like reinforces that whole
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: like the more she says no, the more she secretly
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: means yes, which is like the most poisonous thought to
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: tell young men ever. And it also only really works
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: or is tolerable at least if the man is somewhat attractive.
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: My mom marks. My mom's a VPHR for a hospital
• 35:21
  Speaker 1: system in Texas, and she was like, attractive man never
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: get called in Aga. She's like, they ache and kiss
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: you on the cheek and you'd be like, okay, But
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: if you're ugly, well, Jamie, it's like your test test.
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: Put it in the colosseum scene. If Steve Bushemy comes
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: out of the and he's got a microphone neat scene,
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: can't take my eyes off of you and starts dancing.
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: He's killed, he's awful. Shoot him down, murder, murder him
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: in front of all the other high they just murder him. Yeah,
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: that scene does not pass test at all. But the
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: scene because it's heath Legend, because he's handsome and charming,
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: that big romantic gesture that he does like redeems him
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: in cat's eyes, which is like so bad. And then
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: he gets detention for that, and then she goes and
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: she like break him out of detention. In that scene
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: where like Jamie you were saying, she completely changes everything
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: we know about her. She changes her whole personality and
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: she becomes someone who will flash her her soccer coach
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: in order to distract him to get the guy that
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: has been stalking her to be able to sneak out
• 36:32
  Speaker 1: of detention so that they can go paddle boarding and
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: playing paintball. It's so very weird scene and everyone's like, oh,
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: go cat like like, finally you're doing what we want
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: you to do the whole time smile. A thrilling moment
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: for the A cups though, of like oh wow, to
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: think that people would want us to do that them
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: titty distracted him. Not a popular request? What not? A
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: not a popular request for the A cup crowd, So
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: in that way a small thrill. Also, that teacher character
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: was like what was going on with him? Where he
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: he was just like, I don't know what he was doing,
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: but he was so horny at the beginning of the
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: scene and then just grew horner, hornier and hornier, and
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: then stopped in his tracks for ten full seconds by
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: Julia Stiles A Cups. It was just very she she
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: was like assaulting him. She's like grabbing onto his arms. Oh,
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: your biceps are so big, and and then flashes like
• 37:38
  Speaker 1: and also that you would distract your teacher like this
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: you guy just talk to him like, hey, you know
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: to get my periodism, you know something else that's also
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: not feminist, but you gotta you gotta show him your
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: right and I guess he can't report you. I guess
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: he doesn't want to. He liked he was fully engaged. Yeah,
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: but that choice, like she goes from this like militant
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: feminist to like, yeah, I'll use my boobs to like
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: help out a guy who's been stalking me. Like it
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: just doesn't make any sense, and like maybe it's like, okay,
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: well she's in high school. She's young and impressionable, like
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: maybe that explains that behavior away, but also commented on
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: at all. It's not commented on. And then so many
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: of these teen movies where it is like these impressionable
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: young people who are getting manipulated by each other, who
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: are like being stalked, and it's like, oh, well they
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: were teens, they didn't know any better. And it's like well,
• 38:33
  Speaker 1: maybe don't set all these movies in high school, then, like,
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: where's the rom com with people in their fifties? Anyways,
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: Gabril Union, this is the same year that Tre's All
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: That comes out, so the same movie comes out twice.
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: Union is literally in both of them, but she's she's
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: twenty six. In this movie, she's I mean, holy shit,
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: and she's playing the same role that the beautiful mean
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: black yeah right, in both of those movies. She's so
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: beautiful that she couldn't and that she actually leaves her
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: like popular shitty friend and like tries to be a friend.
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: I mean, maybe I'm misremembering this, but I remember her
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: being like the nicer person who's like embracing a friendship
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: with Laney Boss. Oh, I kind of do, but in
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: this movie. Okay, so I doesn't really have much to
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: do in this movie at all, hardly anything, but the
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: one thing that really stuck out for me, So Gabrielle
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: Union's character's name is Chastity. She's best friends with Bianca,
• 39:31
  Speaker 1: the sister, and towards the end of the movie, Chastity
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: shows up at prom and Bianco's all like, oh, what
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: are you doing here? And she's like don't make the
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: mistake of thinking you were the only sophomore who got
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: invited to prom. So she basically turns on her friend
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: for a guy, like for this Joey creep, And Chastity
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: says to Bianca something like, Oh, he was only trying
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: to go after you because he had a bet with
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: his friends that he was going to score with you tonight.
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: Chastity knows this, and she's still on the day with him.
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: She knows that he was like trying to bang her
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: friend for a bet. And then and Chastity is still like,
• 40:09
  Speaker 1: but he's my date, just like, what what do you mean?
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: The pickings are slim in high school? But that is
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: I mean, this movie is a prime example of like
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: women being catty and petty and in competition with each other,
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: because we see Kat and her sister like having a
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: really kind of antagonistic relationship. Towards the end, we see
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: Chastity turning on Bianca over a guy, and it really
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: reinforced a lot of these this idea that like, oh,
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: like teen girls, they're they're so petty, they're so catty,
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: they all just want to be with a man. Right, Wait,
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: correct me if I'm wrong didn't Joey rape Cat? No?
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: Well did he? They had a bad experience together, right,
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: and that's why she like doesn't like him and doesn't
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: want her sister to date him, but never tells her
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: sister this. See I can see that being what was it?
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: What did he do? So what happens is that Kat
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: and Joey dated in ninth grade. They had sex one
• 41:12
  Speaker 1: time because everyone else was doing it, so Cat was like,
• 41:15
  Speaker 1: I'll do it too. They had sex, it was not
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: pleasant for her. She decided she wasn't ready to do
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: it again, and then Joey dumps her because she didn't
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: want to keep having sex. So as far as consent goes,
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: it's a little murky, but it seems like she consented
• 41:32
  Speaker 1: to that's just not a sexual experience, right, And then
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: she didn't she wasn't ready, which of course she was
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: in ninth grade, Like that's so young. And then when
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: she told him I'm not ready to keep doing this,
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: he dumps her. So that's why she hates him so much.
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: And I feel like it's also implied that that's why
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: she becomes a militant feminists, which I didn't like that
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: implication either. Is like, because like Bianca references towards the
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: beginning of the movie like oh yeah, like she used
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: to be really cool and pular, and then she was
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: just over it for who knows why, because she doesn't
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: know about the joey thing yet. And then it's like, oh,
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: the only way you can become a feminist is if
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: you've first been like really, I don't know, I don't know.
• 42:13
  Speaker 1: It's scorned, scorned my men. And now feminism right, very
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: Shakespearean where it's like, oh, yeah, she she was made
• 42:22
  Speaker 1: into a fury like a woman's scar and now she's
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: an evil reptile who is getting sent to the office. Right.
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: That feels like a very like nineties idea of what
• 42:34
  Speaker 1: makes you a feminist? Yeah yeah, yeah, very yeah. It's
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: like you're on the right. Try, I see what you're doing,
• 42:41
  Speaker 1: but you're wrong, right, all right, take into the quick
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: break in the name we will come back in continue
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: the discussion. Sound good, sounds great, and we are back.
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: So a quick thing I wanted to touch on is
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: whenever Cameron and Michael are approaching Patrick to be like
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: Cameron and his old friend's old grown as man, the
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: fucking seven year old high school freshman. So they're like, hey, Patrick,
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: so we found out that cat likes pretty guys because
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: apparently they found a picture of Jared Leto in her drawer. Basically,
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: they're implying like, maybe make yourself a little bit prettier.
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: And then Patrick says, are you saying I'm not Are
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: you saying that I'm not pretty? I'm not a pretty guy.
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: And I just want to point out that if he
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: was a woman in this movie and they were like, hey,
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: you're not pretty enough, you have to be prettier, there
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: would be a whole makeover scene, like she'd have to
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: be made tail. And then unfortunately Paula put in Naska's
• 43:54
  Speaker 1: right there to pull it off. He's like, actually, I'm
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: gonna do this weird goof e pasta meat ball accents
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: and then slap and then plug your eyebrows, and you're
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: I just did in Hathaway. Now it's time for right. So,
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: But because because he is a man in this movie,
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: he literally does not a single thing to have to
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: change his appearance and he gets to just keep looking
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: exactly the way he does, so I just want to
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: point out, and also projects a confidence that is never
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: lent to teenage girls in movies where he's like, what
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: are you talking about? I'm hot and they're like, oh, sorry,
• 44:31
  Speaker 1: never never, you are, You're right, you're right. I felt
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: like there was a weirdly like implied, like no homo
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: moment after that too, where he's like, what do you
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: mean you don't think I'm pretty? And they're like, oh,
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: we don't. We can't see me because of our penis.
• 44:45
  Speaker 1: We wouldn't, we wouldn't know because and then Joseph Gordon
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: Levitt points to his oldest friend and he's like, did
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: you know he just turned fifty There he's like, oh,
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: I'm almost sciatica. I got to go to the patrol
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: preg He's like, that can give us a discount of Denny's.
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: We should go. But more on that. So there's there's
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: a little bit of like casual homophobia in this movie.
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: Not as bad as some of the movies we've seen,
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: especially from this era, but I would say like the
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: like Joey drawing a dick on Michael's face as an
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: example of that. There's a moment where Bianca, when she's
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: talking about the photo of Jared Leto, she's like, yeah,
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: I found this photo of a guy in her drawer,
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: So I'm pretty sure she's not quote harboring same sex tendencies. Uh.
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: There's another moment where Cameron and Michael talk about like
• 45:42
  Speaker 1: wanting to partner up with Patrick, but not in like
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: a prison scene way or something like that. So it's
• 45:48
  Speaker 1: just like these kind of more subtle examples. It's like yeah,
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: I was like yeah, which I feel like evolves into
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: an even worse like John Appetau where it's like forty
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: five minutes of every single John Apatow movie is like,
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: but we're not gay friends, right, it's literally like a
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: whole movie. Yeah, where's the Jason Segel has a friend
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: who's a boy? I Love you man? That's the alternate
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: title for right. So we're worth pointing out that this,
• 46:23
  Speaker 1: like many nineties movies, is pretty liberal with its casual homophobia.
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: She's a feminist, so we assume she was a lesbian. Yeah,
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: but it looks like she likes dick because she found
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: this phote. She likes pretty. It's like pretty. Also, they
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: she had black panties, yeah, and I was like, you
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: don't own black panties unless you're having sex, right, Like,
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: how many teenage girls saw this movie and they're like,
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: oh no, like the color of my underweard means something. Yeah,
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: and my mom was buying me black panties. So it's
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: like this, fucking no, it's so when you get your
• 47:01
  Speaker 1: period of staying sexy. No, that's literally what it's for
• 47:06
  Speaker 1: five years. Alth I'm not gonna be wearing white underwear regularly.
• 47:09
  Speaker 1: Oh no, I don't. Oh no, why underwear? Absolutely not.
• 47:14
  Speaker 1: Stuff comes out of it. You know, we're leaking, rest,
• 47:19
  Speaker 1: bleeding all all the time. Also full but underwear. I
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: didn't like that that movie, like maybe also insinuate that,
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: like thongs was six and that was the time when
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: people started like wanting you to see the thong. I
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: believe that was when we started hiking the thong up
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: out of the past. Yes, so we'd say we were
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: ready for six liter. It's like a flag mounting, like
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: I bought you these because you as gonna chew up
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: the underwear anyway. So you guys just get to the point.
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: Well that So that reminds me of a moment in
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: the movie where so it's after the party. Kat is
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: in the car with Patrick. She has gotten very drunk.
• 48:00
  Speaker 1: She's drunk, she's dancing on table. She throws up. At
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: some point she gets a concussion, he's like taking care
• 48:08
  Speaker 1: of her, which whatever, But they're in the car and
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: she's like, you know what, you're not as big of
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: an asshole as I thought you were, even though you've
• 48:16
  Speaker 1: been stalking me. And then she leans in for a kiss,
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: and then he kind of you can tell that he
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: sort of like entertains the idea of kissing her, but
• 48:24
  Speaker 1: eventually decides against it, and he's like, maybe we should
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: do this another time, and then that is the catalyst
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: that gets her to turn on him again and fucking
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: hate him, where then he needs to do that big
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: romantic gesture of like singing in front of everyone in
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: the stadium to win her back. But like, I'm trying
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: to make sense of her becoming furious at him because
• 48:45
  Speaker 1: he refuses to kiss her when she's drunk, or maybe
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: he refuses to kiss her because he knows that she
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: because she just threw up, or because he is having
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: like a conflict of his conscience where he's like, oh,
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: I've been paid to take her out, and like then
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: this feels like taking advantage of her. Like I'm trying
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: to figure makes sense of this scene. I feel like
• 49:07
  Speaker 1: it's just like a weird writing choice, because I feel
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: like the more likely outcome of that would be she'd
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: be super fucking embarrassed and what maybe not talk to
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: him because she was embarrassed that she tried to kiss
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: him when she was really drunk and he turned her down,
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: like I can, let's not say they're like you, you
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: embarrassed her, like she's embarrassed, and then that manifest into anger,
• 49:29
  Speaker 1: I guess. But what I'm kind of grappling with is like, Okay, well,
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: you know she's this headstrong feminist, but by this point
• 49:37
  Speaker 1: in the movie, she's not not any more not feminist titties,
• 49:43
  Speaker 1: but she was definitely a feminist who was not trying
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: to show no tea yeah, tends to like get a
• 49:50
  Speaker 1: guy out of detention. I would think that, like she
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: would appreciate a guy not wanting to take advantage of
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: her when she was drunk. That's what gets her so
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: mad at him. So I'm just like, it feels like
• 50:03
  Speaker 1: a weird writing choice, which I was like, oh, well,
• 50:06
  Speaker 1: this movie is probably written by men and directed my men,
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: but it is written by two women, two women who
• 50:13
  Speaker 1: have written a lot of famous stuff. The writing team
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: is Kirsten Smith and Karen McCullough. Uh so this is
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: their first big thing. I guess that this is based
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: on Karen McCullough's high school diary called ten Things I
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: Hate about Anthony. But what they've written together is Tendings
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: they hate about you. Legally Blonde, Ella Enchanted, She's the man,
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: the house bunny, the ugly truth, crazy kind of love
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: and oh this makes sense because all those movies are
• 50:48
  Speaker 1: about bitches times in the whole life for a man.
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: Like bitch went to law school for a man. Yeah,
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: I ain't taken to elsass for no did I ain't
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: did good enough for me to be out of here studying.
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: I mean, I guess she eventually realized she wanted to
• 51:06
  Speaker 1: do it herself, but she was out of her study
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: for Dick. Absolutely, not too much Dick in the world,
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: but there is there is kind of like this overture
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: with like where it's like great that a female writing
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: team is getting so much work, but the overture in
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: their work that's Ellen and Chances is literally about a
• 51:21
  Speaker 1: woman who is cursed by a whitch and cannot say no.
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: I've never seen it. I remember reading the book when
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: I was little and being like this is cool. And
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: then Anne Hathaway was in the movie adaptation. It's about
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: a girl who's cursed and cannot say no until she
• 51:36
  Speaker 1: like falls in love or until something breaks the spell.
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: She's the Man, and that's another Shakespeare adaptation. Well, actually
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: She's the Man is the only one I feel like
• 51:45
  Speaker 1: where she was trying to go play soccer, I haven't.
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: I haven't seen that. Oh yeah you got. You should
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: definitely review it, because I feel like that one, that's
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: the only one they wrote that actually is decent. The
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: rest of them were like, change yourself for dick. She doesn't.
• 52:00
  Speaker 1: She dresses up as her brother so that she can
• 52:03
  Speaker 1: play soccer. But in that she does the journey. She
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: does kiss Channing Tatum, So okay, I'll watch this movie. Yeah,
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: kisses Channing Tatum. I love her, release her. So yeah,
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: there's there's certain choices in this movie, that being one
• 52:24
  Speaker 1: of them where she's like, you refuse to kiss me
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: because I was drunk and you might have felt like
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: you were taking a mantage me. Well fuck, like it
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: doesn't really make a whole lot of sense. What bothers
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: me more is the like this is like latent and
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: most teen movies of this era of like kind of
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: the story rewarding Heath Ledger for doing the bear minimum
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: of like he didn't take advantage of her when she
• 52:50
  Speaker 1: was drunk. What a great guy. God, he did not
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: even try to attack her. Give him a million dollars.
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: Like it's just like, okay, there, but that happens all
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: the time in movies like this. It's like not, Well,
• 53:06
  Speaker 1: it's because men in movies act so horrific that whenever
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: they do just the baseline decent thing, we as the
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: audience are like, wow, what a hero forgetting that. Literally,
• 53:19
  Speaker 1: like he didn't rape her. Oh my god, I love him.
• 53:23
  Speaker 1: He's a good guy. You gotta lock that down. A
• 53:27
  Speaker 1: girl man that don't rape O, sign me up. Yeah,
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: And that's literally what it is. Yeah. Also the singing notion.
• 53:37
  Speaker 1: I just don't think that anybody can make that look cool.
• 53:41
  Speaker 1: And like they had him like slant down his lipole. Yeah,
• 53:46
  Speaker 1: they had him slide down the pole. He's like, if
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: I slide down this pool, maybe she'll slide down my pool. HENA,
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: go gross. So do you want to talk about the sisters? Yes,
• 54:00
  Speaker 1: beautiful transition. Um, Well, first let's talk about the dad
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: because I didn't realize I'm on the I'm on the
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: Wikipedia page. Their dad is supposed to be an obstetrician,
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: which makes his character even weirder where his I don't know,
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: this was like an element of I'm sure something that
• 54:18
  Speaker 1: came from the Shakespeare play that just was never going
• 54:20
  Speaker 1: to translate to modern times at all, because it's so
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: weird where he's like, I know what I'll do, Oh
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: make my daughter is engage in a creepy, perverted bit.
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: That's my idea. But the dead character is just very
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: very bizarre. I don't hate where his storyline ends, but
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: his whole thing is he's he is an obstetrician who
• 54:41
  Speaker 1: is convinced that if his daughters, if he allows his
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: daughters to go on a date, they will get pregnant.
• 54:47
  Speaker 1: Like he believes this firm because he's always talking about
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: like the babies that he delivers from teen moms who
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: he slept, shames, shames for having addictions, like it's a
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: whole thing, and then he's obsessed with like controlling his
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: daughter's Body's basically where he's like, you can't date because
• 55:06
  Speaker 1: you're probably get pregnant, and he doesn't apply that if
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: they got pregnant, it would be their fault, like they
• 55:12
  Speaker 1: wouldn't be able to help themselves but get pregnant, which
• 55:16
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Also, I just didn't understand why he
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: had to. I guess they were trying to validate his
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: obsession with their sexuality through his job. But that's so weird.
• 55:26
  Speaker 1: It's not like, would you like, don't be out there
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: fucking I'm gonna check you out, pussies, what you give in?
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: He's like, he's like, I spent all day looking at
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: teenagers vaginas, and therefore you're like, like, these are my
• 55:39
  Speaker 1: qualifications for being so worried about your vagina? Right? Like what?
• 55:46
  Speaker 1: It just grows? I didn't That didn't register with me
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: at all when we watched it, and now I hate
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: even more. It's so creepy because it just seemed like
• 55:56
  Speaker 1: that was all he really cared about you. They days
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: will go in you know nothing about these His daughter
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: gets into Sarah Lawrence and he's like, oh, don't go
• 56:06
  Speaker 1: to that school. Sure, but that hymen though? Is it intact? Well?
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: And not especially that we know that their mom left,
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: I'm like, what was that marriage? Like is he like
• 56:21
  Speaker 1: the problem he might be the problem. I think he's
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: the problem the woman left ship and like left her
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: daughters with like something amiss with Paula Puta. He also
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: makes Bianca wear that like pregnancy suit with like the giant,
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: like the closest he could get to a chasty belt. God. Oh,
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: I guess that at least because I had a question
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: like why did he just have a pregnancy suit? Because
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: I guess he's an institution that makes more sense. But
• 56:50
  Speaker 1: still at the house, I don't think, yeah, that's in
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: his office. He's not making house. Don't do house calls,
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: and if so, put him in jail. I didn't hate
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: where his last scene was not the worst. I'll hand
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: him that where he kind of out of know where
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: starts saying like but it's not until he finds out
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: that she's like dating a guy, and it's like not
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: as much of a shrew that he's like, Okay, I'll
• 57:18
  Speaker 1: let you go to college. Like it's just I didn't
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: hate it, but it was like it's better than him
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: being an asshole, a weird, pervy asshole the whole movie,
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: because there is a scene where it's after Kat has
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: wrecked into Joey's car and he goes like, my insurance
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: doesn't cover PMS. He's a feminist icon. He's like, are
• 57:41
  Speaker 1: you punishing me about Sarah Lawrence? And she's like, stopped
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: making my decisions for me. And he's like, I'm your father.
• 57:47
  Speaker 1: I have the right to make decisions for you. And
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: she's like, so what I want doesn't matter, and he's like,
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: you're eighteen, you don't know what you want. And then
• 57:55
  Speaker 1: he says, you won't know what you'll want until you're
• 57:58
  Speaker 1: forty five. Even if you get it, you'll be too
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: old to use it because when you're forty sorry, everyone,
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: you're too old to do anything woman, because like I've
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: heard of them, but they don't come to that obriction
• 58:15
  Speaker 1: because they're pussy is too old. Throughout this whole movie, though,
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: Cats always saying like I want to make my own choices.
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: I know what I want and I'm gonna pursue it.
• 58:26
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to do anything else just because someone
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: wants me to do it. I'm only going to do
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: things I want to do. So she is like that
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: to me, is like the best example of her being
• 58:35
  Speaker 1: like a feminist character, because you know, other times she's like,
• 58:39
  Speaker 1: you know, Ernest haming Way and blah blah blah. But
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: it's like her actual saying it and doing it where
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: she's like, I make my own decisions. I don't let
• 58:47
  Speaker 1: anyone influence me. I'm not going to just do something
• 58:50
  Speaker 1: because it's cool, blah blah blah, like all that stuff.
• 58:53
  Speaker 1: I admire that in a character. That's nice. But yeah,
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: their dad is so weirdly controlling about their bodies and
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: their sexuality. It's crazy. It's too much. And the sisters
• 59:04
  Speaker 1: like they of course have to give them that sibling rivalry.
• 59:07
  Speaker 1: And again like her little sister was awful like all
• 59:11
  Speaker 1: the time, and like, but I feel like that's something
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: that you see in teen movies and on TV all
• 59:16
  Speaker 1: the time. It's like, oh, they're a teenager, so they're
• 59:18
  Speaker 1: going to be awful. I wasn't allowed to be awful,
• 59:21
  Speaker 1: is not allowed to beful at all. I ain't get
• 59:24
  Speaker 1: no moments. I ain't getting like my mom was like, no,
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: you're ready to fistfight, like like it's not happening. So
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: I always see these movies and they're just like, oh,
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: they're teenagers, you know they're horrible. What I also like
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: perpetuates this whole thing that bothers me that I've talked
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: about with my friends from high school now where I
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: feel like, for me in high school, it's like we
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: watched all these movies where teenage girls are always butting
• 59:51
  Speaker 1: heads and they're too petty to get along, and there's
• 59:53
  Speaker 1: a million examples of it. And it was in high
• 59:56
  Speaker 1: school most of my close friends were other girls. But
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 1: I would never say that. I would always do that bullshit,
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 1: you know, fifteen year old line of like I actually
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: get along better with guys because they're less drama and like,
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 1: which is stupid. And I was lying, but I was like,
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: if that was what I felt like, I had to say, like,
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: get through where there is this weird like especially then
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: hopefully we's so no but a weird media stigma where
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: like women can't be friends with other women because then
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: they'll talk and realize the whole world is a scam.
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 1: Then they'll start sharing how much they make and realizing
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 1: that they're oppressed. And the sister relationship just like kind
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: of fell right into that with me, where it's Bianca
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 1: is written to be a very dumb, horny character and
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 1: it always bothers me when like there's female characters who
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 1: you know, present more traditionally feminine and are more interested
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 1: in sex, and that is conflated with being stupid or
• 1:00:57
  Speaker 1: mean and that always sucks. But then been like the
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 1: sister relationship, it's only resolved where they get along by
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: the end, but it's only after all this stuff happens
• 1:01:06
  Speaker 1: with boys, so they never find a way to meet
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 1: in the middle with that man being the catalyst. Yah.
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: And it would be such a more fun movie if
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: Bianca was just like fucking horny, like cartoonishly horny, but
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: like mean or stupid, just like wanting to fun so bad, right,
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 1: because I can relate with that, like a fifteen year
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: old that's like she's just so horny. Yeah, they don't
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 1: start getting along until like they both have like a
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 1: man to like anchor them whatever, and that trope of
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: like beautiful girl has nice guy friend who is perfect man,
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 1: but she ignores him. Okay, I want to talk about that,
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 1: the fucking like in cell loser who follows you around
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: and then you're like, I feel like that's honestly how
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 1: my parents got met. My dad was it's like hey
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: still here, and I was like, all right, I love
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 1: him so much. They are romantic. So there's a scene
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 1: early on, where Cameron and Mike are talking about Bianca
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 1: and Michael's all like, oh, the her dad won't let
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 1: her date and pretty the exposition at the elderly exposition machine,
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 1: and he's like, you wouldn't even have a chance anyway,
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: because she's so pretty, and pretty girls are so out
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 1: of reach for us dorks because women who are conventionally
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 1: attractive or superficial. Meanwhile, they are failing to acknowledge that
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 1: the only girls that they are interested in are conventionally attractive,
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 1: like they're not looking at like less conventionally attractive, So
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 1: they're calling these girls vapid and conceded and superficial, even
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: though they are so exactly. But of course they don't
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 1: acknowledge that in any way, but we're supposed to. The
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 1: movie makes us feel sorry for them because they're the
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 1: dorks who can't get the pretty girl. Can't we get
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 1: they're like that? How Elon Musk Okay, Characters like this
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 1: the right Elon Musk exists of like the vengeful in
• 1:03:05
  Speaker 1: cell nerd who feels entitled to the women around him,
• 1:03:09
  Speaker 1: and and when when they're not interested in him because
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 1: he's an asshole, he's like, I know I'll show you all.
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna kill you alone, move to space and like
• 1:03:19
  Speaker 1: like entitled to the bad baches, Like, come on, now,
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: we all know we got mirrors. We know where we
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 1: at the scale, you know what I mean? You know
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 1: when you see somebody and be like I could bag
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 1: them where this is when you see somebody you can't.
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 1: And they always are going after the people that are
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 1: like this is the most popular girl in school. She's
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 1: also one of the most attractive girls in school. So
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 1: we're supposed to feel bad for yo ugly ass movie
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: ugly like people are actually ugly, right, They're like, just
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: like we're oversized clothes and slouch and then you'll be
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: the ugly in cell that we all feel sorry for it.
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 1: But she'll still be attractive enough that when you do
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 1: kiss the hot girl, we're not repulsed. You going to
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: call the police? You know what's gonna all the police?
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 1: Are you making out with this hot person? Man? It's
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 1: like Nev Campbell's character and the Craft whenever she like
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 1: has a scar and they're like, oh, she's disgusting, and
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 1: it's like no, she's Love Campbell and she's on her
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: back and she covers it up the whole time, so
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 1: she's just a fine bitch's but she said about that
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: we don't see, um, it's so dumb. This movie is
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 1: well written and funny in a lot of ways. Work
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 1: now I'm so interested that because we did a bonus
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 1: episode on Legally Blonde, and that's another movie that's so
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 1: riddled with problems, but it's like funny unless I feel like,
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 1: I'm not surprised it's written by the same team because
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 1: I have the same like internal dilemma where there's a
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 1: lot wrong been like, but the stuff that's funny, I
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 1: still kind of gas by this movie, Like I'm like,
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 1: it's funny and the characters are likable enough and the
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 1: story is well crafted that like, I feel gas lit
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 1: by it being good, but because it makes me kind
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 1: of forget like how problematic so much. There's a moment
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 1: where Bianca says, to catch, can't you find some blind
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 1: deaf our word to take you to the movie so
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 1: I can have one day? And it's just like say
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: that in a movie, right, But yeah, so so many
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 1: movies from this era and even into like the late
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: two thousand's and probably you can find examples of it
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: happening even more recently than that, where you know, homophobic
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 1: slurs just are used, Slurs that disparage people with disabilities
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 1: are used, and it's just like, holy crap, why our
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 1: movies so bad? They're also problematic. It's tricky, but this
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: is like I feel like, based on the other movies
• 1:05:45
  Speaker 1: we've done in this era, it's like very late nineties
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 1: girl Power, where it's you know, it's like it kind
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 1: of looks like it could be good for women, but
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 1: it ultimately like ends up doubling down on patriarchal stuff
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 1: where it's like, yeah, we're gonna let you read a
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 1: book now and you can say that men are bad,
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 1: but you still got to end up with one, and
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: he is going to be fooling you the whole time.
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: He's gonna be awful the guy that you end up with. Right.
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 1: I think it was maybe it was like I feel
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: like everything kind of has like a inching kind of process,
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: like we never really get to just bust out the
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 1: gate as women, So maybe this was like just enough
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 1: feminism that, you know, the network and executives were like, okay, okay,
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: we'll take it. But she does Heath Ledger at the end, right,
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: because we're going to need that. We're gonna need that
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: after he checks her and doesn't apologize. Even better, if
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: she asked for an apology and he puts his mouth
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 1: on her. If she if she asked her an apology,
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 1: make sure he interrupts her with his face. I feel
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 1: like that was like their caveat. They were like, well,
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 1: we'll have her asked for an apology, but I don't
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 1: let me finish its progress progress. This is good. She
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 1: Bianca does punch a guy andy him in the with
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 1: such goofy sound effect. Those sound effecks are so loud.
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 1: It's like but I like that scene because it was like,
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 1: all right, she she's punching a guy for but yeah,
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: there's a sword noise that sounds for no reason because
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 1: we just let it go. It's the nine Her hands
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: are not sure. I love it feminism, I did. I
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 1: did like seeing her gig is as a problem. Yeah,
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 1: because usually you see two guys fighting over a girl,
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 1: but this time you see a girl fighting a guy
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 1: for a guy. And then there's a toxic masculinity moment
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 1: of like take your sunglasses off, you get beat up,
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 1: bad girl girl with boobs and vagina. You're a weak
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 1: man and Vagina let me hit you with a boob.
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 1: That teacher be ashamed. Do you know if you hit
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 1: someone in the face with your boob, it does make
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 1: a sword noise. That's just like the rules of feminism. Uh.
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 1: There's also a moment where Bianca, whenever she's in her
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: like French lessons with Cameron, asks him in French, when
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 1: are you going to ask me out? Because heaven forbid
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: she asked him out. Why can a woman just ask
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 1: a man out? Yeah, Sandy Hawkins, bitch. There's there's one
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 1: more moment between the two sisters. I wanted to site
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 1: before I launched myself into space, and that was then.
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 1: I don't even know where I fallen. I just think
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 1: it's interesting that it happened. Was Julia Style says to
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 1: alex Mac you don't always have to be who they
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 1: want you to be, you know, and then her saying like,
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 1: you don't need to dress or act in a way
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 1: to get guys to like you, fair point. And then
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 1: her sister responds by saying, I happened to like to
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 1: be adored like I happened, and and I kind of
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 1: like that too, where it's like it's almost similar to
• 1:09:00
  Speaker 1: the scene between like Cat and Mr Morgan where I'm like, ah,
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 1: they're both kind of right, where it's not wrong to like,
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 1: I'm now I feel defensive and like it's not wrong
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 1: to like attention all the time. But it's not. You know,
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 1: it's like she's not doing anything wrong by doing that.
• 1:09:17
  Speaker 1: But also it's like, I don't know, it seems like
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 1: a nice older sister moment to be like, oh, you know,
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 1: if you don't want to do this, it's not like
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 1: required that you do it. It doesn't result in anything
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 1: in the story. You know, they keep doing the same
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 1: bullshit right now, don't do the same bullshit no matter what.
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 1: But at least they said it. That's like the whole
• 1:09:35
  Speaker 1: deal with this movie is like they say a lot
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 1: of feminist stuff and none of it has any impact
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 1: on the story. Yeah, they don't do it, but I
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 1: just say it. Actions ladies, come on, they're like, this
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 1: is all the patriarchy would let us get away with.
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 1: It's just like a few nods at us being free
• 1:09:50
  Speaker 1: and owning ourselves, but also not doing those things. It's
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 1: gotta sound good on a T shirt because then men
• 1:09:56
  Speaker 1: can make money off of it, and that works I
• 1:09:59
  Speaker 1: would like to think it after this movie ends and
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 1: she graduates from high school and she goes off to
• 1:10:04
  Speaker 1: Sarah Lawrence. Meanwhile, Heath Ledger stays in Seattle and like
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 1: maybe I don't know's intern right, and they never see
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 1: each other again, Like I feel like they just you know,
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 1: they dated maybe for that summer. And then she's like,
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 1: all right, I'm going to go off to study biochemistry
• 1:10:23
  Speaker 1: to become a woman in Stema would have done a
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 1: better drop in Palla putin Esca, but ultimately he would
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 1: never accept a part that would be so reductive towards
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 1: young women. So that's it. That's my feeling on That's
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 1: the Alfred beginning, middle, and ends for this movie. Does
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 1: anyone have any other final thoughts about ten Things I
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 1: Hate about You? No? It just it just left me
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 1: really wanting things in high school that I would never get. Yes,
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 1: I mean, this movie has a whole slew of problems,
• 1:10:59
  Speaker 1: one of them being that you know, he manipulates her
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 1: throughout the entire movie, and like so many people are
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 1: complicit in this manipulation, where like Cat's sister is in
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 1: on the whole thing, where she's like, yeah, help me
• 1:11:11
  Speaker 1: do this, and It's also not realistic because since when
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 1: can the high schoolers keep secrets? Right, Like this would
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 1: be busted within twelve hours. Sure, but like the whole
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 1: school knew and they just didn't tell her, right, there's
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 1: no there's no way. So he's manipulating her. And I
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 1: would say the manipulation isn't as bad as we see,
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 1: and she's all that, but it's still inexcusable that he's
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 1: accepting money and then of course does not apologize for it.
• 1:11:38
  Speaker 1: He bribes her with a guitar. So he takes the
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 1: money that the guy gave him to date cat gives
• 1:11:45
  Speaker 1: her a guitar with broken to her car, broken to
• 1:11:49
  Speaker 1: her vehicle, and left a guitar. Also, he only knows
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 1: she likes guitars because he was stalking her at the
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 1: guitar center. Following at a guitar center, That's the only
• 1:11:58
  Speaker 1: reason he knows about this because he was literally like
• 1:12:01
  Speaker 1: hanging out into bushes stalking her. Right, he broke into
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 1: her car for this romantic gesture, and that like reinforces
• 1:12:09
  Speaker 1: the other another thing that I feel like, you know,
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 1: you tell young men this enough and it just becomes
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 1: a part of their reality where it's like, oh, you
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 1: can substitute being emotionally honest with yourself and others by
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 1: purchasing things or doing nothing at all and just assuming
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 1: people will go along with it. There's so many moments
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 1: where he has to redeem himself in the movie because
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 1: he has sucked up so badly. Some of those times
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 1: it makes sense and some of it doesn't. But like
• 1:12:34
  Speaker 1: the grand gesture of the song, singing in front of
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 1: the whole school, the buying of the guitar, and it's
• 1:12:41
  Speaker 1: like like he's doing this to redeem himself, but he's
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 1: not verbally apologizing, and he shouldn't have manipulated her in
• 1:12:48
  Speaker 1: the first place, which the movie fails to acknowledge. But yeah,
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 1: so it's just a man one of these teen romps
• 1:12:56
  Speaker 1: where I love, I love a good romp. I don't know,
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 1: I don't want. I still I liked the movie, so
• 1:13:05
  Speaker 1: god damn it. Right. It's also a very expensive gift,
• 1:13:09
  Speaker 1: you know how much high school was Like I just
• 1:13:13
  Speaker 1: got rid of my worst boyfriend's shitty acoustic guitar this
• 1:13:17
  Speaker 1: year because I'm like, yeah, this guy has some value
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 1: to it. I yeah, I'm like, I have some assholes stuff.
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 1: Did you sell it? Or just throw it away. I
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 1: just left it outside and I put a sticky note
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 1: and I said, this used to belong to an asshole.
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 1: You can have it like a cursed guitar. That's a movie, Jamie,
• 1:13:36
  Speaker 1: the cursed guitar. It's my good luck chuck guitar. What
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 1: a time to be alive? What a time? Indeed? Well,
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 1: should we discuss whether or not the movie passes the
• 1:13:46
  Speaker 1: Bechdel test? Yeah it does. Here are some of my
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 1: favorite passes. If I Bianca says, there's a difference between
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 1: like and love. Like I like my sketchers, but I
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 1: love my product backpack and what a plug? Right? Got sketchers?
• 1:14:04
  Speaker 1: How can we get people wearing these ugly peak sketchers
• 1:14:10
  Speaker 1: and Sacconi? Yes, Sacconi, Sacconi is a sketches, just notorious
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: ugly ass shoes. Sketchers. They used to have those, you remember,
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 1: laying those little pockets and kids are like, what's it for?
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 1: But they were for condoms? Like, who's keeping a condom
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 1: in their shoe? Anyways? Sophie raised her hand. Can't have
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 1: a back, can't possibly have a back? Right? Yeah? Like, hey,
• 1:14:34
  Speaker 1: get my wet shoe condom, let's do. Let me shake
• 1:14:40
  Speaker 1: it off real quick. You're ready for me to put
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 1: this in your orifices. I know that this is going
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 1: on the most sensitive part of your body, but it's
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 1: been in my shoe for three years. So Bianca says that,
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 1: and then Chastiy says, but I love my sketchers, and
• 1:14:58
  Speaker 1: then Bianca says, that's because you don't have a product
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 1: back back. So great great capitalism happening. They're very very nice. Um.
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 1: There's a scene with Miss Perky Alison Jenny's character where
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 1: she's writing horny erotic fan fick in her office on
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 1: work hours. She was so horny, so horny for the kids,
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 1: she was for row thing. It was horrifying. She says Judith,
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 1: what's another word for engorged? Judith says, I'll look it up.
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: Miss Perkey says swollen. Churchid Cat comes in and says
• 1:15:34
  Speaker 1: to messent, and then Miss Perky talks to her about
• 1:15:37
  Speaker 1: how she's a heinous bitch. There is mention of a
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 1: testicle retrieval operation, which I found to be very funny. Yeah,
• 1:15:44
  Speaker 1: so that's that's pretty much that conversation. But part parts
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 1: of that past. Chastie says, I know you can be
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 1: overwhelmed and I know you can be underwhelmed, but can
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 1: you just be whelmed? And Bianca says, I think you can.
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 1: In Europe a lot of dumb girl exchanges past the
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 1: past that they're actually a whole, like asking questions like
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 1: what is what wires me? Exactly? Does anybody no synonyms?
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 1: Sex stuff? Another one of my favorites is Cat saying
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 1: they're at the party, Bianca wait, and Bianca says, please
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 1: do not address me in public, so it's like, don't
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 1: talk to me, bitch. There's a similar funny one and
• 1:16:24
  Speaker 1: she's all that where there's the one that passes the
• 1:16:26
  Speaker 1: Bactel tests. It's like, I think you should kill yourself,
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 1: and the girls like that's mean, but it passes a
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 1: lot of passes between Cat and Bianca, between Bianca and Chastity,
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 1: between Cat and ms Perky, between Kat and her friend Mandela,
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 1: who we didn't talk about. But I feel like she's
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 1: hardly worth mentioning because she loves William Shakespeare and that's
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 1: just fine for her. Good for her. She's a scholar.
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 1: Let's write the movie on our nipple scale, shall we
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 1: do it? You give it nipples for how well you
• 1:17:00
  Speaker 1: think the movie treats women zero to five nipples. Um,
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 1: I doth giveth this film is one and a half
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 1: beer flavored nipples, because that is a quote from the movie.
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 1: Sounds gross, Mike's hard flavor. What kind of like we're
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 1: talking about? I p A because if it's a I've
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 1: declared myself too old for coarse light congratulations. I'm gonna
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 1: say it's like like a chocolate stout nipple for me.
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 1: So one and a half. We already talked about how
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 1: manipulative the characters are to each other. How the guy
• 1:17:46
  Speaker 1: who's doing most of the manipulation, the two guys who
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 1: are like behind this whole scheme, are the ones who
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 1: end up with the girls at the end. They don't
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 1: have to apologize. You just get a guitar and everything's fine.
• 1:17:59
  Speaker 1: Take a girls sailing and she'll love you forever. I
• 1:18:02
  Speaker 1: know from experience. This is a very white movie. The
• 1:18:09
  Speaker 1: few characters who are people of color are mostly just
• 1:18:13
  Speaker 1: kind of scenery in this very white story. I do
• 1:18:16
  Speaker 1: like that teacher character, Mr Morgan. I stand for him,
• 1:18:20
  Speaker 1: but he does not get much screen time. Yeah, so
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 1: it's just so many problems. I still enjoyed watching it,
• 1:18:29
  Speaker 1: which hurts my heart to say, but I find it funny. Yeah,
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 1: it's It's just I'm glad I didn't watch this movie
• 1:18:38
  Speaker 1: more as a teen, because I think it would have
• 1:18:41
  Speaker 1: gasolate me a lot and made me like really misinterpret
• 1:18:45
  Speaker 1: a lot of things and really influence what I thought
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 1: romance was supposed to be and what I thought relationships
• 1:18:51
  Speaker 1: were supposed to be. And I'm glad that I wasn't
• 1:18:54
  Speaker 1: consuming a lot of that type of media at that age. Instead,
• 1:18:58
  Speaker 1: I was watching, you know, movies where action heroes punch
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 1: a bunch of guys and then there's only one woman
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 1: in the story and she doesn't get to do anything.
• 1:19:06
  Speaker 1: So all media is terrible. And if this movie, if
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 1: this movie make fucked you when you were younger, let
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 1: us know interested in hearing what is the movie that
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 1: sucked you up? Right? So yeah, one and a half
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 1: nipples and I will give one to Cat and one
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 1: half nipple to her friend Mandela Cool. I will. Yeah,
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna give it a one and a half too.
• 1:19:36
  Speaker 1: That that seems about right. Um. Yeah. The thing I
• 1:19:40
  Speaker 1: think I like least about this movie is that it
• 1:19:42
  Speaker 1: kind of makes a concerted effort to make it so
• 1:19:46
  Speaker 1: that there's no feminist argument that you can make by
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 1: they're being like, well, but this character is a feminist
• 1:19:52
  Speaker 1: and she says this, and she says this, and she
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 1: says this, and it's like, that's all done with the
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 1: assumption that you're not going to challenge the fact that
• 1:19:59
  Speaker 1: the movie be as about her being stripped of those
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 1: things and having her change and then ultimately challenging men
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 1: and an authority in general less in order to be happy.
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 1: So plus, I mean, you made a bunch of great points,
• 1:20:15
  Speaker 1: and I but it's a it's a funny movie. A
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 1: dad character, Paula Putonesca really blew it in this. Really,
• 1:20:24
  Speaker 1: he really was just like I look at teenagers vaginas
• 1:20:28
  Speaker 1: all day and then I get home and I can
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 1: keep controlling them. It's all I can think about. He's
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 1: a little tween badge. His life revolves around tween badge
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 1: and it's disturbing. Can we please never say that phrase again?
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 1: It's the awful phrase. Actually our merch now. Uh So
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 1: I'll give it a nip and a half, and I'm
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 1: going to give the half to Bianca because I feel
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 1: like there's there's more more there. And then I do
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 1: like that she at the very least comes around on
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 1: that Joey character and she's like, oh, he's a happened idiot.
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 1: I'm going to go after this guy who is setting
• 1:21:04
  Speaker 1: up a whole scheme, the whole Ponzi scheme to really
• 1:21:10
  Speaker 1: win in the same everyone her best friend is cough
• 1:21:13
  Speaker 1: and her like not trying to be her friend at all.
• 1:21:16
  Speaker 1: He's never actually interested in real friendship. He just wants
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 1: to be with her. But I think she's too hot.
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 1: He's like, how do I get close to this fanast
• 1:21:22
  Speaker 1: bitch runs He lies about he lies about being able
• 1:21:31
  Speaker 1: to speak French just so he can tutor her. That's crazy,
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 1: and she's so dumb she never will really don't speak
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 1: like he's on Google Translate the entire time. Hold on,
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 1: hold on, just like sexy dumb woman. Let me look
• 1:21:55
  Speaker 1: this up and then I'll give my other nipple to um.
• 1:22:01
  Speaker 1: Joseph Gordon love its old ass friend, the other one
• 1:22:06
  Speaker 1: he needs that he's suffering. I like David Crumholtz, if
• 1:22:11
  Speaker 1: only the old as friend hit hooked with the guidance
• 1:22:14
  Speaker 1: counselor who was so horny, if a kid when he's like,
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 1: he's like, my secret is I'm your age, and then
• 1:22:22
  Speaker 1: good enough of me, she's like, okay, five of really
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 1: horny fan fiction, let's do this. Is she also so
• 1:22:30
  Speaker 1: horny because she's old and it's like, nah, that you're
• 1:22:33
  Speaker 1: over forty five, you're useless into that? Yeah, that does
• 1:22:38
  Speaker 1: seem like a slightly agist thing, or like a woman.
• 1:22:42
  Speaker 1: There's like a lot of times like when there's like
• 1:22:44
  Speaker 1: a woman in a professional position, it's like, oh, she's
• 1:22:48
  Speaker 1: she's so single that she's demented herself into her work
• 1:22:54
  Speaker 1: because she can't get no ditch she I think we're
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 1: filling in the blanks. I think she is in a
• 1:22:59
  Speaker 1: polyum so real polyamorous relationships. I think that she just
• 1:23:03
  Speaker 1: is very sex positive and very horny and embracing her
• 1:23:06
  Speaker 1: sexual I hope. So we're just gonna have to say
• 1:23:08
  Speaker 1: that that's what's happening that I'm good with that. I
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 1: remember the first time I saw an older woman having
• 1:23:12
  Speaker 1: sex on TV. It was Viola Davis get her Box
• 1:23:15
  Speaker 1: eight on How to Get Away with Murder, and I
• 1:23:18
  Speaker 1: was like, oh funk, I don't want to watch my
• 1:23:20
