• 1:05
  Speaker 2: just to pump for that. How about you? How are you?
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: I'm doing good. We started up the Christmas shows?
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: How those been they've been okay. I was battling a cold,
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: which I'm finally finishing.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: So it's just no fun on the road when you're
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: just feeling yucky and totally just having to navigate.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: Singing through that is just the worst.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: It's the worst in the whole world.
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: It's just so much more bandwidth, like thinking about it,
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: you know, you're just being like, Okay, how can I
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: do this without cracking or whatever the case may be,
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: right exactly. Yeah, so that was a big bummer.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: But what's not a bummer is that my my oldest
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: my little puppy is twelve years old.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: Dang twelve.
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: I just had her twelfth birthday. That's yeah, that's wild, dude,
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: isn't that crazy?
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: It's wild to me. I gotta imagine it's for you.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: It's wild for me.
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: She's still just like so spunky and like hasn't really
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: slown down too much, which is really fun. We brought
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: her to pet Smart and got a little to have
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: these little like doggy birthday cakes. It got her some
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: toys and just like, yeah, she's just the sweetest.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: She's such a sweet girl. Man, she's been just that's wild, bro.
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: I mean, I can't guess that makes sense, right, because
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: it was like it was we were still kind of touring,
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: like in the van and stuff.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Maybe maybe it was the r vase it was before
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: you got married.
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: Then, right, Yeah, that was like right, at the same time.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: That's what I remember too.
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so that's wild. I know, such a sweet girl though.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: She's the best. That's awesome, she's the best. It's exciting.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: Did she like birthday cake? She did?
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: Didn't didn't go well later because we all got to
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: we all got to enjoy how that kind of messed
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: up her tummy a little bit. Then, Yeah, it's like,
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: it's fine. You deserve to be a little gassy.
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: You're fine. Man.
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: Those dog farts, though, they can clear out a room, bro,
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: really can.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: They really can? They are wicked. Have you seen any
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: movies lately? I have? I watched an okay movie? Oh okay,
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: it was.
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: It's on Prime and it is called Playdate.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: I don't know that I would.
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: Recommend because the story is pretty dumb and some of
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: the dialogue is terrible.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: However, it's got.
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: Our guy Alan Richson, who we like from Reacher, and
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: Kevin James and.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: They oh it's that okay.
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, they're a pretty fun duo. And have the
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: material been a bit stronger It could have been. It
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: could have been pretty great. Sure, sure, sure, And I
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: did like I liked their chemistry. It was fun. But yeah,
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: I wouldn't say, hey, you need to see this, but
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: I was on a flight on my way home from
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: the first set of Christmas shows and it was good
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: for that. I probably wouldn't go out of my way
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: to see this one. I always have the hardest time
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: with these recommendations because I'm like, you know, I haven't
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: seen some just amazing classic movies. And then I'm still
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: just like, oh, Kevin James and Allen Richson and something.
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna watch that right away, Like.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: You know, Sophie's Choice is a better movie. But it's
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: not like it's going to be fun to watch them,
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: you know what I mean. Yeah, sometimes we just want
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: to you know, it's like reading a magazine or something
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: over Warren Peace.
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: It's right venue for the rep situation. Yeah, I working
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: with here. If that sounds like something that you'd be interested.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: In, check it out. It was okay. I feel like
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: I probably will at some point. I hear some of
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: these movies though, I'm like, oh, yeah, that's a that's
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: a straight to streamer.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: That's a streamer.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: I get it. Okay, Yeah, great for sure, that's what
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: this is. That's fun. Yeah, I like it. What have you?
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: What was the last movie you watched.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: I went to the theater and saw a crazy movie.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: It was really fun. It's called The Running Man. Oh
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: tell me? Yeah, So this is the new Glenn Powell film, uh,
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: directed by Edgar Wright, which I think we talked about previously,
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: because I was surprised that that was what was happening. Uh,
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: really different than the first Running Man, which I found
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: I heard that. Yeah, I found out this is closer
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: to the original, like because it's a step k book
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: I think, or short story. It's one of it's Stephen
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: King wrote it. Whatever it is. It's pretty wild, it's
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: pretty crazy, but it is. I really enjoyed it. I
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: don't think it's like an incredibly like great movie, but
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: it's super duper fun. And if you're there for like
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: a you know, just like a shoot him up with
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: a lot of charisma going on, you're gonna have a
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: great time. I really really liked it. It's just like
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: you know, it's it's an action movie. There's plot stuff
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: that doesn't necessarily make like a ton of sense, but sure,
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: if you can overlook that, you're gonna have a great time.
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: I know I did, And you know, Glenn Pala just
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: continues to kill it. He loves movies where he can
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: get in a disguise.
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: Was he doing some accents too and stuff?
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah? I think he does do a couple accents and stuff,
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: which he does it. It's like, I get it, that
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: would be fun to play around. Why not, you know
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: you're a big star, do it?
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: Did you see him on SNL because he was he
• 7:00
  Speaker 3: was promoting Running Man.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: I need to watch that. I heard it was really
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: good though, Right.
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: It's the first one that I've seen start to finish
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: live in so long.
• 7:09
  Speaker 2: That's right.
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he gets to show off some more accents and
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: and his physical stuff, and it's really he's a really
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: talented guy.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but yeah, it's a The like plot line is
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: is a they go kind of a little more it's
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: hard to say more dystopian, but they go slightly more
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: dystopian in this one. It's it's a little bit hunger
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: game z. Which did you watch the first Running Man?
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: A lot? I watched a ton I was super ever
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: saw it once. No, that's so wild. That's you know,
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: just the ones we miss. But yeah, uh that one,
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: that one's a little more insular. This one builds the
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: world a little bit more, which is fun. Yeah, I
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: really enjoyed it. I thought it was really fun. Uh
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: and it's a it's got the Edgar right, like he
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: knows how to action pack and action see he shoots.
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: It's so cool, you know, like it's like quick cut
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: like active. I don't know, it's something about his style
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: is really it's really a pleasing So yeah, I would
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: check it out. It's really good. You're gonna have a
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: good time for sure. Cool. Cool. Have you been streaming anything?
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: I have?
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: I've been streaming the most bonkers show. I've watched the
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: first six to six episodes of The Chair Company on
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: HBO Max. What in the world is that? It's the
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: Tim Robinson show.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: Ah, that makes sense?
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, okay, it is absolutely insane. It's funny because
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: we don't get Tim Robinson being as nuts as he
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: normally is. Sure, but the entire plot line is ridiculous,
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: and all of the supporting characters are way out there
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: and they're doing more like Tim Robinson esque thing.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: So he's like.
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: The ballast exactly.
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: Exactly.
• 9:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, as much as he can be a straight man,
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: but it also has just this like underlying stress throughout
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: the whole thing. It can be kind of stressful. Some
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: really funny things go down as well, kind of dark,
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: just kind of weird. It's it's all based around this
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: one incident that happens that he just completely obsesses about
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: and then needs to dig deeper, and it's just it's crazy.
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: It's really crazy.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: That's funny, and it's just active now. So like there's new.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: There's eight episodes total that will be out, but I
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: think maybe the seventh is.
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: Out currently, so the probably by the time, by the
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: time this comes out, it'll be you were going to
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: say the same thing, You're good good, Well, that's cool.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: I might have to check that out. I don't do
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: you think this is a good intro to Tim?
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know, because dude, the I think
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: you should leave. Did you watch those now?
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: I really should? I don't know. I don't know why. Yeah,
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: full disclosure, only because I think this comes up in
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: the episode. We're recording the opening after we did the
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: episode with Sammy, so I think we talked about it.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: So it's just breaking my brain. I felt like I
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: had just call that out, as I said later, As
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: I said later, wait for it, you guys. I just
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: never I never have delved into his stuff. I don't
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: know why I'm not. It's not like intentional, it's just
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: kind of like just have it.
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: So yeah, his stuff, it's it's just interesting.
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: And but he just does so many different things and
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: this now is just so different from that different brand,
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: so it's it's hard to say gotcha. Like Sammy mentioned later,
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: Friendship is a is really out there and crazy as well.
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: One thing that's funny is that he keeps getting really
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: attractive women to be his counterpart, smart smart, his love interest.
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: He has Kate Mara in in Friendship, and in this
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: it's Lake Bell, so it's just oh.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: Man, and they're both so good. Lake Bell is so
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: funny too, Yeah, so funny. They both are pretty Yeah,
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: that's she's really funny. So yeah.
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: Check it out his on HBO Max. Yeah, that's all
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: I got. It's it's not super long episodes either. It's
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: like thirty to forty minutes.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: Oh cool, that's nice. Yeah, nice to plow for room
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: sometimes cool.
• 11:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, what have you been streaming?
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna cheat and just do another theater film, but
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: I went and saw Roof, ma'am. Have you heard of
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: this movie?
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: The Channing Tatum one?
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: It was only in the theater for a hot minute.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: We just happened to catch it. That's the right time. Yes,
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: Channing Tatum and Kirsten Dunst. Stanfield is in it, which
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: is really Tony Revelorie, who you'll know is Flash from
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: the Spider Man films. Oh yeah, his like butt head
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: enemy kind of guy. You know, those are kind of
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: the only giant names I remember from being in it,
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: And giant is probably overstating, but people would know this
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: movie was really interesting. I liked it a lot, I
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: will admit I sort of thought I was getting into
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: a different film than what it ended up being. I thought, so, like,
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: the the shtick is, this is a really smart guy
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: who has never like applied himself, right, And he is
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: in jail and breaks out and he's called the roof
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: Man because he that's how he broke into all these
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: places that he burgles, and he then like breaks out
• 13:01
  Speaker 2: and stays in a in a store for an extended
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: period of time while he's like hiding it. That's like
• 13:07
  Speaker 2: the stick, right, And I thought it was going to
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: be kind of like a little bit of a thriller,
• 13:12
  Speaker 2: but mostly just like a kind of lighthearted comedy romp
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: about living in a store. That's not really what it
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: is in a nice way. I guess maybe I should
• 13:22
  Speaker 2: have known because Kirsten Dunst is in it and she's
• 13:24
  Speaker 2: such a great actor. But it's a little more serious
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: than that. It's about like love that kind of morphs
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: and comes into the story and then a man trying
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: to like make changes in his life and do the
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: right thing. It's it's pretty interesting, but it was just
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: darker than I thought it would be, and you know,
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: more drama, I guess. Yeah.
• 13:46
  Speaker 3: I thought it was more lighthearted as well when I
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: saw the trailer.
• 13:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Like the trailer makes it look like it's like, oh,
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: he's gonna you know, he's eating peanut m and ms
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: all the time, because that's what the food is that's
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: in the you know. And it does have moments that
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: are really funny and great. Peter Dinkla is also in it.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: I should have said him, he's great. I forgot that
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: he was also in this movie. Yeah, how fun. But yeah,
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: it was good. I definitely recommend it to folks, but
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: just know going in like it is a more of
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: a serious movie. There's some boohoo's in it and stuff
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: like that, and but I thought it was really good.
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: Channing Tandem. I really like him as an actor. I
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: think we've talked about him a number of times, but
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: I think he's really good and funny and pretty charming.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, I think Chan's great.
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: I call him chand because you are.
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: It's deal. We're not on that level yet, you know.
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I still call.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: Him mister Katum when we text. It's a it's a
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: whole thing. But yeah, worth checking out for sure. But yeah,
• 14:46

  Speaker 2: don't I think, no for sure what's next? So just
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: be cool, baby.
• 16:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah we might be doing the sequel. That's kind of
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: fingers crossed. It's the hope can make that work.
• 16:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I love it. It'd be fun, So stay tuned
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: for that. But we're here to talk about, as we've said,
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: the twenty twenty four phenomenal film Wicked, And we really
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: had no choice on this one. As we said, I
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: think we I think I spoiled it already. But Sammy
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: is our guest here, and she watched it and was like,
• 16:32
  Speaker 2: I love this film. You must have me on it.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: So it made it really easy on us, so so easy.
• 16:39
  Speaker 2: Let's welcome her back. She's she's wonderful, she's unlimited, she's perfect.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: Let's use Sammy corrupted. What's up, Sammy?
• 16:48
  Speaker 5: Hello, Hi, it's good to see me. Isn't it.
• 16:54
  Speaker 2: Good to see you? You're flay started out.
• 16:57
  Speaker 5: I even planned that. I just thought of it right now.
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: I love that. That's great. I just thought you meant it,
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: and then I realized it's from the movie.
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: Oh buddy, I'm hi.
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: Are you.
• 17:14
  Speaker 5: I am doing I'm doing really well. I'm on break
• 17:17
  Speaker 5: from work. I have seen the second Wicked movie. I
• 17:23
  Speaker 5: me too.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: That is guys, don't say anything. I want to talk
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: about it so much rop time yet. Okay, that's fair.
• 17:32
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I won't say anything, but I will say that
• 17:34
  Speaker 5: it's keeping me afloat that movie alone. Right now.
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: I love that. I love that. One thing I wanted
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: to ask you right away, because you're such a reader.
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: You can go to Instagram the reading Jones and follow
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: your reading account. Have you read the source material for
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: this phill up?
• 17:53
  Speaker 3: That's a good question. I thought so too.
• 17:56
  Speaker 5: Yes, of course I have. I Actually it was my
• 18:00
  Speaker 5: last read of twenty twenty four, but I think it
• 18:03
  Speaker 5: took me through January a little bit to finish. So
• 18:05
  Speaker 5: I read it this year technically.
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: And.
• 18:10
  Speaker 5: It is very different than both the stage play and
• 18:16
  Speaker 5: the film. Interesting, very dark, very like not for children.
• 18:24
  Speaker 5: When they made the Broadway musical, they took they took
• 18:27
  Speaker 5: the book and based on its themes, created something that
• 18:31
  Speaker 5: everyone could enjoy and also that children could learn from
• 18:37
  Speaker 5: because I think, you know, I'll get into it. But
• 18:41
  Speaker 5: this story has so many lessons that are so important.
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: But the book is like strictly for adults.
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: And very interesting. I'm intrigued by that. I can't talk.
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: I got to remember we're talking only about the first one.
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry. This is my fault. It's also my fault.
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: I haven't said what we're talking about. We're talking about
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: Wicked from four. Yeah, it took the world by storm.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: We can all agree, and we're so happy to have
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: you here to chat about it. This is the best
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: was the book just called Wicked.
• 19:15
  Speaker 5: It's called Wicked, The Life and Times of the Wicked
• 19:17
  Speaker 5: Witch of the West. I believe.
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, cool, okay, thanks, love it, and you're perfect
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: for this music theater like book stuff, brilliant, you are magical.
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: This is all guys, this is all great. Really.
• 19:33
  Speaker 5: I was telling Robin Beeks before we started recording ies
• 19:36
  Speaker 5: made for this moment, like literally when Wicked came out,
• 19:40
  Speaker 5: I was like, let me know the second you're filming,
• 19:42
  Speaker 5: because I'm ready. I'm doing I'm ready the podcast.
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: And we were like, wow, people so rarely are interested.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: This is great.
• 19:50
  Speaker 5: Yes, we're on board because I could. And I said
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: to Adam earlier today, I was like, they're going to
• 19:56
  Speaker 5: have to tell me when to stop talking because I could. Yeah.
• 20:00
  Speaker 5: He he knows firstand he's just in there listening to
• 20:03
  Speaker 5: me go on and on and he's just nodding.
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: I told him. I was like, hey, I'm sorry, we're
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: gonna have to take Samy away for a few hours
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: on Tuesday. And he was like, yeah, she wants to
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: watch the movie with me Monday night. Thanks a lot.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: He really dominated his couple of days here. That's okay, Yeah,
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: thank you.
• 20:25
  Speaker 5: I am. I am working on a PowerPoint for him.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: To like apprise him of the situation before the next one.
• 20:33
  Speaker 5: Yes, because I love that and I without without like
• 20:39
  Speaker 5: spoiling anything. The second movie was so good that I
• 20:44
  Speaker 5: need him to appreciate it enough. So I'm laying the groundwork.
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: I'm explaining things. I'm giving him the loure I'm giving
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: him so.
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: That, oh he'll like that. That's can Can I be
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: copied on that?
• 20:56
  Speaker 5: Sure? I can send it out.
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: I don't. I need to watch it again because I
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: didn't have that strong of a response, and I want to.
• 21:06
  Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, there's there's a lot of little gifts for
• 21:08
  Speaker 5: the people who have seen the show on Broadway, and there's.
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: I do bet that, which is have you ever seen
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: this show the musical?
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: Okay, I did it in Chicago. I didn't get to
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: see it on Broadway. I saw in Chicago and did
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: the lottery thing and.
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: And you've seen it, Sammy, right, it's I don't know.
• 21:30
  Speaker 5: I didn't get to catch aDNA and Kristen.
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: But gotcha.
• 21:36
  Speaker 5: I listened. I wore that soundtrack out when it first
• 21:41
  Speaker 5: came out, and then I did see it on Broadway
• 21:43
  Speaker 5: and was just like.
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: It's got to be so fun on stage.
• 21:49
  Speaker 5: It really is. It really is. It's beautiful. It's such
• 21:52
  Speaker 5: a like it's it's magical to watch on stage. So yeah,
• 21:57
  Speaker 5: I mean I've loved it forever forever, and so I
• 22:04
  Speaker 5: almost feel like watching it on film like I need
• 22:07
  Speaker 5: to see it a few times, both the first one
• 22:10
  Speaker 5: and now having seen the second one for the first time,
• 22:13
  Speaker 5: I like need to go see it again because it's
• 22:15
  Speaker 5: it feels like it's so and aside from just Wicked,
• 22:19
  Speaker 5: like Wizard of Oz was like one of the first
• 22:21
  Speaker 5: movies I ever saw.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I played with.
• 22:25
  Speaker 5: Dorothy when I was a dancer. We did like a
• 22:28
  Speaker 5: production of Wicked, and I was Dorothy like, it's so
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: in my DNA that like it's hard for me to
• 22:35
  Speaker 5: absorb the movie for the first time because I'm just
• 22:39
  Speaker 5: like the anticipation of seeing this thing that I've dreamt
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: my whole life about is like it's overwhelming. So yeah,
• 22:48
  Speaker 5: it's this is this is this whole film coming out
• 22:52
  Speaker 5: has like just meant so much to me. I love
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: it so much.
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: I love that love for this is unlimited. I'm sorry,
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: let into it, gang Rop, maybe you want to get
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: it started with just a rough.
• 23:06
  Speaker 3: SYNOPSI sure misunderstood because of her green skin. A young
• 23:12
  Speaker 3: woman named Alphaba Forge is an unlikely but profound friendship
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: with Glinda, a student with an unflinching desire for popularity
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: following an encounter with the Wizard of Oz. Their relationship
• 23:26
  Speaker 3: soon reaches a crossroad as their lives begin to take
• 23:30
  Speaker 3: very different paths.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: Nice, nice, love it. Let's go to Rotten Tomatoes. Hear
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: what they have to say. Critics have it coming in
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: a pretty rock solid eighty eight percent. Oh solid, that's
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: better than the what's the last one we did twenty
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: twenty three years.
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: We've done a couple stinkers lately, but we liked him though.
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: We did that. Audience members have this even higher than that.
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: They have it at ninety five.
• 24:01
  Speaker 5: That makes sense.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: Rash hot rash Uh, it is hot, and it's time
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: for our hot hot take. Oh that's a hot take.
• 24:12
  Speaker 5: That's a hot take.
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: Ah. I didn't think of anything.
• 24:17
  Speaker 3: We gotta think about stuff, dude. We've had a few
• 24:20
  Speaker 3: bad ones here. Yeah, something's hot.
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Yeah, it's the bubble they ate that's
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: by sea sandwich and then they got bubble Guts and
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: that's what she's traveling around in. I don't know what
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: you want from me. I'll go first here. I really
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: like this movie. A ton I am a big fan
• 24:40
  Speaker 2: of Wizard of Oz. In general, I'm a fan. I
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: feel like people people will go like crazy for Wizard
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: of Oz. So I don't know, Yeah, I'm a big fan.
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: I feel like that's like our friend Lust is a
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: crazy super fan and has forever as well. Uh So
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: I don't want to misrepresent myself, but I liked it.
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: I love the source mat I love this movie. This
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: this iteration of it is a ton of fun. I
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: think it is wildly colorful and just energetic, this whole
• 25:10
  Speaker 2: movie in the best ways. I think it's a super
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: fun I love when we get source material that everyone
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: knows and we just do like little little twists on
• 25:20
  Speaker 2: a new retelling of it. I think that's really fun
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: when it's effectively done. Just really like that. The themes
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: in this of you know, that sort of tried and
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: true theme of like not feeling like you belong and
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: feeling like the world is also agreeing with you, and
• 25:36
  Speaker 2: then also finding your place and just finding your voice.
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: You know. It's a coming of age story in a way,
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: even though they're both maybe they're supposed to be younger
• 25:45
  Speaker 2: in the play, but they both seem like adults to me.
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: But maybe that's just me.
• 25:50
  Speaker 5: Is basically high school. Oh I think No, I guess
• 25:53
  Speaker 5: university is college, gotcha?
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: Okay, so that makes sense. But yeah, that that storyline
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: is always just so great anyway. And you know, we
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: love a coming of age story here on this podcast,
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: so we sure do. We're big We're big fans of big,
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: big fans. But yeah, I just think honestly that the
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: biggest thing in this, aside from the actors, who I know,
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: we'll talk about a bunch, is just the energy in
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: this and just the I feel like you can really
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: tangibly tell how much they love this source material from
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: the Wizard of Us originally Wicked, the book, also the
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: you know, the stage show, Like it just felt like
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: a lot of people getting to getting to do what
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: they love, and that is that is palpable. I feel
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: like in this tons of great actors, tons of great
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: stuff going on, and some great tunes too. So I'm
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: a huge fan of this movie. I think it is
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: a ton of fun. My hot take, oh, I don't
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: really have one. I don't I don't know. I couldn't
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: really think of a hot take other than I'd never
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: seen the show and I didn't look up how the
• 27:01
  Speaker 2: second one was going before I went, which is not
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: usually I'll do a little read through, you know, for sure,
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: you know, just to see, but I didn't do anything.
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: So yeah, that's my tip and take very tepid, buddy.
• 27:16
  Speaker 2: Nice job.
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I had very similar to you, like usual. I
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: thought this is such an incredible film. I thought it
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: honored the stage show so well was able to make
• 27:28
  Speaker 3: it even better with the incredible production design and the
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: amazing visual effects. It was nominated for ten Oscars. It
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: won two for Production Design and costume Design. I was
• 27:42
  Speaker 3: directed by John m chu who also directed Crazy Rich
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: Asians in the Heights and a bunch of music videos,
• 27:51
  Speaker 3: so he was set up pretty well to do a
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: big musical production like this.
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: Stephen Schwartz is responsible for the credible score.
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: He is a musical theater royalty after creating Godspell and
• 28:06
  Speaker 3: Pippin and of course this.
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: I was completely blown away by the two leads, not
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: only with their extremely impressive vocals, but also their acting
• 28:20
  Speaker 3: was bonkers. Yeah, yeah, I thought it was just it
• 28:24
  Speaker 3: was really fun. They gave all the nons to the
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: originators of the musical, with Stephen Schwartz making an appearance
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: and both Kristin Chenowien and Dina Menzel having their stepouts.
• 28:34
  Speaker 3: I really liked that they did that.
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: Yeah, hot take.
• 28:39
  Speaker 3: Sometimes turning a stage musical into a movie doesn't work
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: very well. Sometimes it's meant to be on the stage
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: and it can lose some of its magic. But this,
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: I think just takes it to a new level. I'm
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: so happy that a musical that means so much to
• 28:56
  Speaker 3: so many people came out as amazing as it did.
• 28:59
  Speaker 2: It had very high.
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: Expectations and I think it met them. And everyone clearly
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: put just so much time and so much love into
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: this project, and it shows love it.
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: Hot take, Pal, hot things, Thank you all right, Sammy,
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: the floor is yours.
• 29:16
  Speaker 5: Okay, And like I said, you might just have to
• 29:18
  Speaker 5: stop me at some point, I take my takes aren't
• 29:21
  Speaker 5: so hot as they are just enthusiastic. I guess my
• 29:26
  Speaker 5: one hot take would be anyone who like any criticisms.
• 29:32
  Speaker 5: I respect if people don't like things, especially like if
• 29:38
  Speaker 5: they have a valeries and not just like that I
• 29:40
  Speaker 5: like it. I don't like care very much, man, but
• 29:44
  Speaker 5: I've I've I'm so immersed in the conversation surrounding this
• 29:47
  Speaker 5: film that when I see a valid criticism, I'm like,
• 29:51
  Speaker 5: you're wrong.
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 29:56
  Speaker 5: My hot take is I accept zero criticism of these films.
• 29:59
  Speaker 5: I I have in like thought about every criticism I
• 30:05
  Speaker 5: have heard and been like, no, I actually I disagree
• 30:08
  Speaker 5: with that. I'm not just being defiant, Like I think
• 30:11
  Speaker 5: these films are perfect, and this film maybe even especially so,
• 30:17
  Speaker 5: because it set the stage like it is something that
• 30:22
  Speaker 5: we have been waiting for for so long, and and
• 30:27
  Speaker 5: they showed us right out at the gate that they
• 30:30
  Speaker 5: were prepared to they were ready for this, like they
• 30:34
  Speaker 5: and like like like you said, it was a bunch
• 30:37
  Speaker 5: of people coming together who loved what they did, from
• 30:42
  Speaker 5: John M two to Ariana and Cynthia down to like
• 30:48
  Speaker 5: the people who planted the fields and apparent, yeah, apparently
• 30:55
  Speaker 5: all of the like all of the Emerald City was
• 31:01
  Speaker 5: like functioning, like there were they made, they made snow
• 31:05
  Speaker 5: globes for the little like outdoor carts they made, like
• 31:09
  Speaker 5: the salon was fully operational, like crazy. The amount the
• 31:14
  Speaker 5: attention to detail that was put into this is unlike
• 31:18
  Speaker 5: anything I've seen, and it just it was it felt,
• 31:25
  Speaker 5: like like I said, like a gift to the fans
• 31:28
  Speaker 5: of this musical, like no stone was unturned and and
• 31:33
  Speaker 5: and A. I think you can feel the love that
• 31:36
  Speaker 5: was put into it, but I think you can feel
• 31:39
  Speaker 5: the the care, the attention, like the fact that like
• 31:43
  Speaker 5: so little of this is CGI, Like if this was
• 31:47
  Speaker 5: made by someone else, we might be seeing a lot
• 31:49
  Speaker 5: more CGI and a lot less practical effects, all the
• 31:54
  Speaker 5: makeup everything. It was just stunning visually. Then, like if
• 31:59
  Speaker 5: you're getting into like the emotions of it, here, here's
• 32:03
  Speaker 5: maybe sort of a hot take. I think Alphaba should
• 32:07
  Speaker 5: have always been black.
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: I'm like, yeah, it's kind of wild that it wasn't
• 32:12
  Speaker 2: that way. I'm with you because it's exactly that makes sense,
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: you know.
• 32:16
  Speaker 5: Yeah, And it's it's gotten to this point where like
• 32:19
  Speaker 5: the source material and this is part of my PowerPoint,
• 32:22
  Speaker 5: so buges you're getting a previews, it's it's gotten to
• 32:28
  Speaker 5: the point where the source material was so sacred for
• 32:31
  Speaker 5: so long, and for this to not only meet that
• 32:36
  Speaker 5: level but surpass it, and like for me far surpass
• 32:42
  Speaker 5: it is kind of been blowing my mind, like like
• 32:47
  Speaker 5: now this is wicked to me, When for so long
• 32:50
  Speaker 5: I was like, please be precious with this because it's
• 32:53
  Speaker 5: so sacred, and now now this has become what Wicked
• 32:57
  Speaker 5: is to me, Alphaba like since Thea's portrayal, and I
• 33:01
  Speaker 5: know we'll talk more specifically about each actor, but definite,
• 33:06
  Speaker 5: it feels like she should have always been black. It
• 33:09
  Speaker 5: makes so much sense to me. And yeah, I I
• 33:15
  Speaker 5: loved viewing it through that lens, and I love the
• 33:19
  Speaker 5: message of this story I feel like in Alpha ba
• 33:25
  Speaker 5: so but I also do really love Glinda's arc and
• 33:29
  Speaker 5: I and I'm excited for Rob and everyone else who
• 33:32
  Speaker 5: hasn't seen for Good yet to see where her art
• 33:35
  Speaker 5: continues to go. I think hers is a really important
• 33:39
  Speaker 5: story for a lot of like most of like Alphaba's
• 33:44
  Speaker 5: are not the norm, Glinda's are kind of more the norm,
• 33:47
  Speaker 5: and I think her story is really really important. Yeah,
• 33:53
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna stop myself there. I I just I can't
• 33:58
  Speaker 5: say enough good things. I love this deeply.
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: I love it. Hot hot take I thought of a
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: hot take during that. And I know you don't like
• 34:07
  Speaker 2: you don't want to hear criticism, Okay, yeah, just give
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: me a chance. I just want to say the one
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: bad part about this movie. Those blonde eyebrows just do
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: not work for and as a person with blonde eyebrows,
• 34:21
  Speaker 2: it made me very self conscious. I don't know, I
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: don't like, no, I'm just kidding, but they I'm just
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: every time I looked at her, I was like, man,
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: those are definitely died, for sure died. And that's weird
• 34:33
  Speaker 2: to say in a movie where someone has all over them.
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: But it's it's through me. It's through me, And I.
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: Don't know why, because you know that she's not blonde.
• 34:41
  Speaker 2: I don't know that.
• 34:42
  Speaker 3: It's just like with that complexion.
• 34:45
  Speaker 2: I don't really washed her out, as she's obviously beautiful
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: and great and you know, like, but yeah, as a
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: person with clear eyebrows, I was like, come on, come on,
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: come on, you feel bad. That's all I got. Shall
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: we talk about our favorite acting performance. Shall we name
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: the dude the dude?
• 35:09
  Speaker 6: I'm the dude, So that's what you call me, you
• 35:11
  Speaker 6: know that, or his dude or duder or you know,
• 35:17
  Speaker 6: el dudo reno if you're not into the whole brevity thing.
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: But Sammy, you get to go first.
• 35:25
  Speaker 5: Cynthia Rivo is my dude. It's the way I will
• 35:34
  Speaker 5: give credit to like the fact that this is for
• 35:38
  Speaker 5: the camera and and not for the stage, that maybe
• 35:46
  Speaker 5: the stage Alphaba's wouldn't even have this opportunity. But she
• 35:50
  Speaker 5: plays Alphaba so contained and like steely and reserved, and
• 35:57
  Speaker 5: it's I I And this is why I say, I
• 36:01
  Speaker 5: feel like she it should have always been a black woman,
• 36:04
  Speaker 5: because I feel like I feel her lifetime of understanding
• 36:09
  Speaker 5: being othered watching her just her slight facial expressions, her
• 36:17
  Speaker 5: like just putting up with just aggression, microaggression after micro aggression,
• 36:23
  Speaker 5: just like and just internalizing it. It. It was really
• 36:30
  Speaker 5: beautiful and I know that like a lot of people
• 36:33
  Speaker 5: were so shocked by Ariana Grande's performance because they weren't
• 36:37
  Speaker 5: expecting it of her, so she got a lot more
• 36:41
  Speaker 5: talk like buzz but and kind of for me as well,
• 36:46
  Speaker 5: because I knew Cynthia Rievo was gonna be perfect. Right,
• 36:49
  Speaker 5: But I I I have now seen this movie, I
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: think nine or ten times, and it's awesome. Her arc
• 36:59
  Speaker 5: every time like gets me like she sold it and
• 37:07
  Speaker 5: it's just she is Alphabet now in my brain, like, oh.
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: Have back. I did not know.
• 37:19
  Speaker 5: I guess you didn't hear the doorbone heard.
• 37:23
  Speaker 2: Someone say that's great.
• 37:31
  Speaker 5: Adam will be home soon and he.
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: Can on the way he does something.
• 37:36
  Speaker 5: But yeah, I just I I literally, I think that
• 37:39
  Speaker 5: she was so this was so lived in for her
• 37:45
  Speaker 5: and so like realized, like she it was masterful to me.
• 37:49
  Speaker 5: So she is, my dude, I.
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: Love that you have.
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: That's amazing. I of course picked her as well. She
• 37:58
  Speaker 3: has one of my favorite voices of all time. I've
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: said this a few times on the pod. She is
• 38:04
  Speaker 3: just she has a perfect tone and one of the
• 38:08
  Speaker 3: best live vocal singers I've ever I've ever heard. It's incredible.
• 38:15
  Speaker 3: And I've also said this a few times, but I
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: was introduced to her in a clip from The Color Purple,
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: the Broadway show where she out saying Jennifer Hudson, which
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: I thought was insane because Jonifer Hudson has an incredible voice.
• 38:33
  Speaker 3: But yeah, it's the best alphaba I've ever heard by
• 38:41
  Speaker 3: a lot. But not only vocally. She just she acted
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: her ass off those scenes where she's got tears streaming
• 38:50
  Speaker 3: down her face. Yeah, And like you said, Sammy, she
• 38:55
  Speaker 3: keeps it so contained in the beginning and even vocally
• 39:02
  Speaker 3: and then by defying gravity, you're just like there it comes,
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: and it's just like it gets me charped up just
• 39:09
  Speaker 3: thinking about She's just incredible. She's perfect, She's perfect love
• 39:16
  Speaker 3: that and also sorry she she told Sammy that she
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: looked great at this words. I just had to say
• 39:25
  Speaker 3: that again. I keep bringing it up.
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: Now, that's a great point.
• 39:28
  Speaker 3: We saw she in theorevo and she locked eyes with
• 39:32
  Speaker 3: Sammy and it was pretty cool.
• 39:34
  Speaker 5: I have thought about that moment so many times over
• 39:38
  Speaker 5: the last year because I already loved her. But I
• 39:44
  Speaker 5: think I said to Adam today, I was like, I
• 39:47
  Speaker 5: am so lucky she said that to me when she did,
• 39:50
  Speaker 5: because I would have lost it. I would have lost it.
• 39:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah. This is before we saw her in Wicked, right, Yeah,
• 39:58
  Speaker 3: this was before.
• 40:00
  Speaker 5: This was two cmas ago, so she was like they
• 40:03
  Speaker 5: were starting to promo it.
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and she just like she.
• 40:13
  Speaker 5: Was like your beautiful and I was like, oh, which
• 40:19
  Speaker 5: I took as like like she liked my outfit because
• 40:23
  Speaker 5: she's a fashion girl and I was wearing this like
• 40:27
  Speaker 5: kind of uh asymmetrical, like kind of see through dress
• 40:31
  Speaker 5: and I felt like I looked kind of different and
• 40:36
  Speaker 5: she know, which is so alphabet of her she I
• 40:40
  Speaker 5: think she that's what I was thinking that she was
• 40:42
  Speaker 5: noticing that, like, oh, you're not in like a glittery dress,
• 40:46
  Speaker 5: and I like, like, what you're doing, and so she
• 40:48
  Speaker 5: complimented that, and I was I like, literally squeezed down
• 40:53
  Speaker 5: his hands so hard, and I was like, please tell
• 40:56
  Speaker 5: me you saw that. And then I was thankful that
• 40:58
  Speaker 5: you and Kelsey did because I was like laboration.
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: Was. I felt like I was just as excited as
• 41:04
  Speaker 2: she was. I was like, oh my god, if that
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: was six months later, you were to just burst into
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: tears or something like.
• 41:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, so that I I don't know why we're talking
• 41:22
  Speaker 5: about this. I'm a mind blanked, but yeah, that was moment.
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I just brought it.
• 41:26
  Speaker 3: Wanted to dude, and why is she here?
• 41:31
  Speaker 2: Dude? Yeah, it's a clean sweep. I agree with basically
• 41:34
  Speaker 2: everything you guess. I think other than Rob one Quist
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: of Home Free, she's the best singer on planet earthp No,
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: I never will get rid of me. She's awesome. I
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: totally agree with everything you guys said. I had a
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: comment to you, and I obviously I don't I don't
• 41:56
  Speaker 2: know anything about acting, but I assume you can get
• 41:59
  Speaker 2: away with those smaller things with the eyeball of the
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: camera being right here as opposed to stage where it's
• 42:05
  Speaker 2: you know, however many feetback. But her I loved when
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: you were talking about her like trying to hold it
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: in both of you. I just thought, yeah, that's what
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: it was. She was like a like a teapot just
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: like it was boiling, you know, like it was it
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: was so close to that one degree of difference, you know,
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: and have to keep like tempering it back. I just
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: think she's magnificent, and in a movie with other great
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: performances that are wonderful that we will soon talk about,
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: she was even a step above all that. I mean,
• 42:39
  Speaker 2: she's just perfect, perfect perfect. I don't yeah, I don't
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: have anything else to add other than she kicks ass.
• 42:46
  Speaker 3: She's awesome.
• 42:47
  Speaker 2: Good call. Let's talk about some of those other folks though.
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: Show we name the Tucci, the tootill hard Sammy, who'd
• 42:54
  Speaker 2: you have for your tea? Well?
• 42:57
  Speaker 5: I try to always when we when I'm on the podcast,
• 43:00
  Speaker 5: think of someone like truly like what the Stanley Tucci
• 43:03
  Speaker 5: word means to me, which is like someone who just
• 43:05
  Speaker 5: like comes in maybe not like a huge role. But
• 43:12
  Speaker 5: if you've seen my Instagram lately, I made a whole
• 43:15
  Speaker 5: TikTok about this. I well, TikTok and real, I guess,
• 43:18
  Speaker 5: but I if there are no Jeff Goldbloom as the
• 43:23
  Speaker 5: Wizard fans I am dead because I.
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: Talk about also perfect.
• 43:30
  Speaker 5: Thank you. I think he is perfect in this role,
• 43:35
  Speaker 5: and watching it again today, I was like I wanted
• 43:38
  Speaker 5: to watch specifically with that in mind that I was like,
• 43:41
  Speaker 5: I just made a video like talking about how perfect
• 43:44
  Speaker 5: he was, Like do I actually believe this?
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: Let me?
• 43:46
  Speaker 5: Let me watch again? And I was like, yeah, no,
• 43:48
  Speaker 5: I literally I can't imagine anyone else in that role.
• 43:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I've.
• 43:54
  Speaker 5: Never seen it. I've seen it. I've never seen it
• 43:57
  Speaker 5: performed like the way that he did. Like they've always
• 44:01
  Speaker 5: been like sort of whimsical, but not Jeff Goldbloom is
• 44:04
  Speaker 5: it is in a category of his own, and I
• 44:12
  Speaker 5: it's twofold. It's like there, I think it's Oz would
• 44:16
  Speaker 5: have never allowed this person to come in from obscurity
• 44:23
  Speaker 5: and then become their leader if he wasn't so charming
• 44:27
  Speaker 5: and quirky. So I think that's so so important to
• 44:31
  Speaker 5: his character.
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: But also, oh, were getting into spoiler territory.
• 44:37
  Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 44:38
  Speaker 2: I get you. I get you. We can just just
• 44:42
  Speaker 2: move past that.
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 44:45
  Speaker 5: What what I will say is that no, I don't
• 44:52
  Speaker 5: want to say anything else.
• 44:56
  Speaker 2: I love it. I refuse to talk.
• 44:59
  Speaker 3: Sim thank you for being so conscious of it, though,
• 45:04
  Speaker 3: I really.
• 45:05
  Speaker 5: That's awesome because especially because you know.
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: It so well, like not to go ahead.
• 45:10
  Speaker 5: I get that the they did like a special like
• 45:14
  Speaker 5: a Wonderful Night in Oz or something special.
• 45:17
  Speaker 2: Cool.
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't see it yet.
• 45:18
  Speaker 2: I didn't either.
• 45:19
  Speaker 5: I refuse to watch it just because I was like,
• 45:22
  Speaker 5: I don't even want to hear how they sing the songs.
• 45:24
  Speaker 5: I don't want to hear the choices they make because
• 45:27
  Speaker 5: I hate spoilers. So yeah, I don't want to do
• 45:29
  Speaker 5: that to anyone else.
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: I can't watch trailers anymore, I know.
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: And because they've made it so that you see the entire.
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: Moment, they really lay it out for you now, Yeah,
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: for sure.
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: But yeah, very appreciative of that.
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: That that's a great pick.
• 45:48
  Speaker 3: So yeah, I kind of feel like we should have
• 45:50
  Speaker 3: probably just gone into Ariana Grande right to Jason, you know,
• 45:58
  Speaker 3: because I mean, she was so us off. She clearly
• 46:02
  Speaker 3: listened to this so much growing up. She sounds so
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: much like Kristin Chenowith in her higher register in this stuff.
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: That's yeah, you just know that she has sung along
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: to this her whole life. When she's such a mimic anyway.
• 46:25
  Speaker 3: But yeah, I was. I was really impressed with her
• 46:28
  Speaker 3: operatic tone. It was really really professionally done. But she
• 46:35
  Speaker 3: also just completely embodied the character. I can't really imagine
• 46:39
  Speaker 3: a better performance from someone else, and I'm sure that
• 46:44
  Speaker 3: the list was very long of people who wanted that part,
• 46:50
  Speaker 3: but yeah, I can't imagine anybody else. She was so good,
• 46:53
  Speaker 3: she was perfect. So yeah, just crazy, go ahead, Sammy.
• 46:58
  Speaker 5: Well, I was just going to say, like, I know,
• 47:00
  Speaker 5: because I've seen every interview they've done. I know that
• 47:04
  Speaker 5: she has been pretty much like manifesting this her whole career,
• 47:12
  Speaker 5: Like she's every chance if you like look through her
• 47:17
  Speaker 5: or like if see interviews and like compilations. The amount
• 47:20
  Speaker 5: of time she would bring up Wicked throughout her career
• 47:24
  Speaker 5: say I'll do anything, I will do anything, and then
• 47:27
  Speaker 5: or like now she says, like I she's Ariana Grande.
• 47:32
  Speaker 5: She's so famous. She can go to the head of
• 47:35
  Speaker 5: Universal or whatever Mark Platt is and bother him to
• 47:40
  Speaker 5: be like, hey, whenever you're starting to audition for Wicked
• 47:44
  Speaker 5: right here, like yeah, okay, So she was constantly I
• 47:49
  Speaker 5: feel like her whole life she was preparing herself for
• 47:51
  Speaker 5: this and and actually when she found out, when her
• 47:55
  Speaker 5: like team found out that they were starting to do
• 47:59
  Speaker 5: auditions for Wicked, she put her Ariana Grande career on
• 48:04
  Speaker 5: hold and started training for like six months before her audition. Crazy,
• 48:10
  Speaker 5: like the the work ethic is like like, like you said,
• 48:16
  Speaker 5: it's it's someone who loved it so much. And yeah,
• 48:22
  Speaker 5: I she she blew my mind. I was so surprised
• 48:26
  Speaker 5: by her. She Yeah, I can't picture anybody. And I
• 48:32
  Speaker 5: know of a few actresses who like got close and
• 48:35
  Speaker 5: every all those names. I'm like, no, I can't even imagine.
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: Right, right. Uh. She's also so great at playing the
• 48:42
  Speaker 2: like vapid, you know, like that undertone under it, but
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: also in a very likable way, you know what I mean. Still,
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: if she tells that line so well, yeah, she's just
• 48:55
  Speaker 2: hysterical on this. It makes me think of her SNL
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: bits where when people were surprised she was funny. I
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: was like, guys, did we not watch that? How do
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: we not know?
• 49:05
  Speaker 5: That?
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: So good on a number of different things. But yeah,
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: it was just a few people that you know, I
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: guess just forgot that or never saw it. But I
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: think she's awesome in this, and you know, if if
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: the goddess cyn the Arena wasn't also in this, we
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: would have applauded her even more. I think so.
• 49:27
  Speaker 5: Well, what I will say is the first act of
• 49:33
  Speaker 5: the show of Wicked is the is alphab becoming wicked like?
• 49:40
  Speaker 5: And the second act is Glinda becoming good?
• 49:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so.
• 49:47
  Speaker 5: Glinda gets her moment.
• 49:50
  Speaker 2: Later yeah them, Yeah.
• 49:53
  Speaker 5: But this movie felt like really like Cynthia's arc or
• 49:57
  Speaker 5: Alphaba's arc, whereas Ari's arc as Glinda is a longer one.
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: Totally yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, she was awesome. You want
• 50:08
  Speaker 2: to say yeah for otherwise I would have said.
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: Jeff Goldbloom as well. The only other person I would
• 50:13
  Speaker 3: say that also would have been an amazing wizard, but
• 50:15
  Speaker 3: probably like twenty years ago, would have been Christopher Walkin.
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: That's the only other person that I could love that see,
• 50:22
  Speaker 3: just because you need somebody like super original, like absolutely,
• 50:28
  Speaker 3: what about.
• 50:28
  Speaker 2: Our guy Jack Black. I really think he could it
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: be a different wizard.
• 50:32
  Speaker 3: It would be so much fun.
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: I think he could kind of do it, And.
• 50:36
  Speaker 3: I mean I would love to see it really, you know,
• 50:40
  Speaker 3: and when you go there, then it's like, well, Will
• 50:42
  Speaker 3: Ferrell would be hilarious too, just like there it could
• 50:44
  Speaker 3: be great, but I was just kind of picturing, you know,
• 50:47
  Speaker 3: Jeff Goldbloom has such an iconic delivery, and it's just
• 50:52
  Speaker 3: there's nobody else like Jeff Goldblum, right, because.
• 50:56
  Speaker 2: They're both have that kind of dancery vibe too. Because
• 50:59
  Speaker 2: wasn't walking to answer first, totally think right, So that's
• 51:03
  Speaker 2: a good call. I like that a lot.
• 51:05
  Speaker 3: But I had him too. But then my my runner
• 51:07
  Speaker 3: up would have been Jonathan Bailey. I thought that I
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: wasn't familiar with his previous work, but I thought he fiero. Yep,
• 51:17
  Speaker 3: I think he just won Sexiest Man Alive as well.
• 51:19
  Speaker 5: He makes me giddy.
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I.
• 51:24
  Speaker 5: Love that gay man so much.
• 51:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he is wonderful.
• 51:27
  Speaker 3: I mean he totally looked the part. He has to
• 51:30
  Speaker 3: be that like egomaniac but also show like a bunch
• 51:35
  Speaker 3: of empathy and like really.
• 51:37
  Speaker 2: With me too.
• 51:38
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and he had he had a pretty strong voice
• 51:41
  Speaker 3: as well and moved really well. And yeah, I thought,
• 51:46
  Speaker 3: I don't know, I've only seen him in that Jurassic
• 51:49
  Speaker 3: Rebirth after.
• 51:51
  Speaker 5: I was familiar because he was he like came to
• 51:54
  Speaker 5: fame in I think he did stage stuff. Maybe I'm
• 51:57
  Speaker 5: wrong about that, but he came to fame in Bridgerton,
• 51:59
  Speaker 5: which I did not see.
• 52:04
  Speaker 3: Or something, but.
• 52:05
  Speaker 2: I've heard that now that you say that, that rings
• 52:07
  Speaker 2: a bell.
• 52:07
  Speaker 5: But he like came into the show not in the
• 52:11
  Speaker 5: first season, and people were like, who is this man?
• 52:18
  Speaker 5: But yeah, I didn't know him until Wicked and I
• 52:20
  Speaker 5: was like, we'll see and I fell in love with him.
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: You were like, well, we saw and that was awesome.
• 52:29
  Speaker 2: It was great. Uh uh oh. Sorry.
• 52:35
  Speaker 5: One more thing about Jeff Goldboom's character is I I
• 52:41
  Speaker 5: think Christopher Walking is also a perfect like fits this mold.
• 52:47
  Speaker 5: But like so I saw a tweet that was like,
• 52:50
  Speaker 5: did they just did they not even hand Jeff Goldbloom
• 52:52
  Speaker 5: a script? They just like just stuck because he's so
• 52:58
  Speaker 5: like he's not from oz like he he and we
• 53:04
  Speaker 5: know that I think we like that's not from the
• 53:08
  Speaker 5: second part, Like that's just we know he comes from
• 53:11
  Speaker 5: somewhere in the Midwest and.
• 53:15
  Speaker 3: Is it omaha he says omaha.
• 53:17
  Speaker 5: Yeah, oh maha. I think he's Nebraska.
• 53:21
  Speaker 2: Oh ma.
• 53:24
  Speaker 5: So I like the whole point is that he doesn't
• 53:27
  Speaker 5: really fit in with these care like he is quirky
• 53:29
  Speaker 5: and weird and different and he he's just a guy.
• 53:33
  Speaker 5: From the Midwest to like a Carneye from the Midwest,
• 53:38
  Speaker 5: you know, like I love that he's so weird and different.
• 53:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's really great. I love all those pics.
• 53:47
  Speaker 2: Those were all people on my list. I thought Bowen
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: Yang was really fun as so much fun friend and
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: I think there's some trivia later about I think it
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: was Ariana that's suggested him for the part, and that's
• 54:02
  Speaker 2: usually a lady right like it's a it's a pair
• 54:07
  Speaker 2: of ladies that are like the best friend, supplicants or
• 54:10
  Speaker 2: whatever they are. So that's really fun. I thought that
• 54:12
  Speaker 2: worked really really well, and I thought he was He
• 54:15
  Speaker 2: was very silly and great.
• 54:16
  Speaker 5: It's so funny.
• 54:19
  Speaker 2: Rob a person we saw on Broadway. Kala set set
• 54:28
  Speaker 2: all right, I wrote down, Yeah, I forgot fun to
• 54:30
  Speaker 2: see her. We saw her waitress back in the day.
• 54:33
  Speaker 2: She's also the bearded lady right in. She didn't get
• 54:40
  Speaker 2: to do much in this, but it was just fun
• 54:41
  Speaker 2: to see her. And I sort of took that as
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: like they were like, oh, yeah, she's amazing, let's just
• 54:46
  Speaker 2: get her involved and find out on.
• 54:48
  Speaker 3: What I understand, that's not even a role.
• 54:51
  Speaker 2: That's crazy made it the part for her.
• 54:52
  Speaker 3: That's fine, Yeah, that's fun.
• 54:55
  Speaker 2: I like that.
• 54:55
  Speaker 3: It was super cool. H And then she's got a
• 54:58
  Speaker 3: monster voice too.
• 55:00
  Speaker 4: I know.
• 55:00
  Speaker 5: I was like, how are you going to put her
• 55:02
  Speaker 5: in a show?
• 55:02
  Speaker 2: And I guess at it is pretty wild, yeah, honestly.
• 55:09
  Speaker 2: And then another great voice. But I think just for speaking,
• 55:12
  Speaker 2: I've never heard anything but Peter Dinklish was He's just
• 55:15
  Speaker 2: that was so great.
• 55:16
  Speaker 3: Love did you not see that syr No movie, like saying, dude,
• 55:21
  Speaker 3: it's like it's a musical.
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: Oh fun? No, Yeah, well that's cool. Uh yeah, and
• 55:31
  Speaker 2: everyone the the whole I will say I watched on
• 55:35
  Speaker 2: one of my rewatches. I watched, like I tried to
• 55:37
  Speaker 2: just watch the background folks, like the chorus folks, because
• 55:41
  Speaker 2: I was sort of like, I assume all these people
• 55:43
  Speaker 2: are badasses that have been in a ton of stuff too,
• 55:45
  Speaker 2: I'm sure, and they were having a blast and I
• 55:49
  Speaker 2: really liked that part too, So just shout out to
• 55:51
  Speaker 2: all them. I don't have others, but.
• 55:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well and Michelle Yo, while not having like a yeah,
• 56:00
  Speaker 3: a strong singing voice, she got the job done.
• 56:06
  Speaker 2: But yeah, she's clearly not a singer. Yeah, but yeah
• 56:12
  Speaker 2: she uh. I thought she was really good in the
• 56:15
  Speaker 2: scenes badass though, and absolutely not the worst singer we've
• 56:19
  Speaker 2: seen cast in a Russell still has that as far
• 56:23
  Speaker 2: as I know.
• 56:26
  Speaker 5: That was way worse and like, yeah, like not a lot.
• 56:31
  Speaker 5: I think probably in total she had maybe maybe ten
• 56:35
  Speaker 5: lines of vocals.
• 56:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah right, right, okay, pretty overlookable, right, like okay, and
• 56:43
  Speaker 2: she's the best, so and she's the best. Is the best.
• 56:46
  Speaker 5: I've always been, like, even as someone who did the
• 56:51
  Speaker 5: musical theater route and like got my degree in theater, like,
• 56:56
  Speaker 5: I have always cared so much more if the actor
• 56:59
  Speaker 5: can convince me that they're feeling what they're saying that
• 57:02
  Speaker 5: like it being technically perfect.
• 57:05
  Speaker 2: Absolutely so I love that.
• 57:07
  Speaker 3: I just guess it's a huge role like jove air
• 57:10
  Speaker 3: when it means to be an amazing vocal.
• 57:12
  Speaker 2: Yes, so bad. It was terrible.
• 57:24
  Speaker 5: I just got out some candy tat and I realized
• 57:27
  Speaker 5: it's pink and green.
• 57:28
  Speaker 3: Oh did you guys notice I'm wearing a green shirt.
• 57:32
  Speaker 3: It's the only green shirt I.
• 57:34
  Speaker 2: Have finally doing it.
• 57:36
  Speaker 3: Guys, Oh my gosh, really pink and green flowers?
• 57:40
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, stop it? My though is something to see?
• 57:43
  Speaker 5: Stop it?
• 57:48
  Speaker 2: I'm the wicked witch. Now that's weird. I don't know
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: what it was any other people.
• 57:54
  Speaker 3: We have to say for the do you listed everybody
• 57:58
  Speaker 3: that I was gonna name?
• 58:00
  Speaker 2: Let's move forward. Then let's talk about our favorite scene?
• 58:02
  Speaker 2: Shall we name the dingus? So think this is quite simple,
• 58:07
  Speaker 2: really dingus dingus. I could talk about my dingas all
• 58:10
  Speaker 2: night long. I'm gonna kiss you. What's your favorite scene? That?
• 58:13
  Speaker 2: This is not easy to pick, It's.
• 58:16
  Speaker 5: So not I have three listed. Mmm, Okay, I'm gonna go.
• 58:25
  Speaker 5: This is maybe a cheat because I chose a song
• 58:29
  Speaker 5: love It.
• 58:29
  Speaker 2: That's fine, into it. We've chose always an entire second
• 58:33
  Speaker 2: half of a movie before.
• 58:35
  Speaker 5: Yeah, dancing through life sequence Love that was beautiful from
• 58:43
  Speaker 5: the library to the end of the oss Ballroom is.
• 58:47
  Speaker 2: So great.
• 58:49
  Speaker 5: The choreography, Jonathan Bailey's performance, Uh, the emotion, like the
• 58:55
  Speaker 5: relationship building that happens with uh, not only Alpaba and Glinda,
• 59:02
  Speaker 5: but Bach and Nessa and Nessa bringing that to Alphaba
• 59:07
  Speaker 5: and Alphaba going and doing a nice thing for Glinda
• 59:11
  Speaker 5: and getting morrible to take her into the class, and
• 59:16
  Speaker 5: then the everything that Alphaba goes through when she gets
• 59:20
  Speaker 5: there and Glinda like it's so beautiful and it gets
• 59:25
  Speaker 5: like I have not made it through that scene ever
• 59:28
  Speaker 5: without weeping.
• 59:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no spoilers, but say, yeah, so it's.
• 59:36
  Speaker 5: My it's my I think it's my favorite, like overall,
• 59:40
  Speaker 5: like spectacle of the movie to watch?
• 59:42
  Speaker 2: Does that include the circular bookcase Stuff's so cool just
• 59:49
  Speaker 2: from like a choreography and a totally amazing Yeah.
• 59:56
  Speaker 5: Like I watched We Have We Bought It Wicked digitally,
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 5: so it came with all of these like like behind
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 5: the scenes stuff sure, and learned that there's so many
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 5: shots specifically in that one, Like there's a shot where
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 5: a guy leaps over and the camera like follows him
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 5: upside down. That was practical, Like that was like the
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 5: fun they choreographed that. Oh my god, that's fun.
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so good, And so that was going all the
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 3: way through that like the scene thing.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's kind of a multiple scenes, but totally Yeah.
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 3: I was so ready to be cringed out by that
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 3: dance scene and was like on the verge, I was
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 3: just like, oh god, and then it just like becomes
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 3: this whole, like really beautiful thing. I had a lot
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 3: of different feelings in that because I was ready to
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 3: just be like, oh, this is like this is the
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 3: part of musicals that I don't like, like, I'm ready
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 3: to just hate this. And then yeah, I was pleasantly surprised,
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 3: but yeah, and then even got emotional.
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 5: Yeah, oh my god, I was gonna say I I
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 5: I think they want you to feel that. I think
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 5: they want you to be like, this is so and
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 5: then it because that's what that's what everyone who's around
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 5: hers is feeling. Oh man, that is so moving.
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I love what you're saying, though rap where you're like,
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 2: it's like teetering. It's going to be so cheesy, horrible.
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 2: Sometimes we see, oh go ahead, I have to.
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 5: I locked down them out so I'll be one second.
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 2: All right, you're good. Like I love the part when
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 2: someone is like, I don't know, I don't feel like
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 2: I belong. And then it's like, stop making up dances
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 2: in the middle of the school dance, you weirdo. It's
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 2: okay to just hang out by the snack table. It's fine.
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, we don't need to choreograph our own dance.
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 3: I didn't feel that way, but there was a part
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 3: like you could make a funny bit about like, I
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 3: don't know, I just feel like I don't belong. And
• 1:02:06
  Speaker 3: then she goes in the middle, just like yourself, elbow dance,
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 3: just step touching step stay there, yeah, do you know?
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 5: Do you know what that is? By the way them
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 5: talk about it, so it's uh, both Ari and Cynthia
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 5: have their own and no one knows what it is.
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 5: But they're spelling something out that means something important to
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 5: them with their elbow. Cynthia doesn't know Ari's, John doesn't
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 5: know either of theirs. It's just a personal thing. But
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 5: they are spelling something out that's meaningful.
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, nice. Or they had like rotator cuff injuries
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 2: and they're like, this is one of the that's a
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 2: great pick. Rob you haven't said I.
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 3: Have not, and mine was easily define gravity, Like yeah.
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 2: I feel like a basic bitch, but absolutely absolutely, I
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 2: mean everybody, everybody was waiting for this song.
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 3: Everybody's waiting for this number. It's clearly the biggest song
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 3: from the show. But it just was better than I
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 3: was even hoping for. It just was so incredible. It's
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 3: the best I've ever heard that song. The visuals are
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 3: so nuts. When she like slow motion like whips the
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 3: cape yes you know, and gets that's on the broom
• 1:03:48
  Speaker 3: and it's like, oh, hell, let's go, let's do this,
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 3: her flying all over the place.
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 2: There's just so much more you're able to do visually in.
• 1:04:00
  Speaker 3: This film than you were on stage, and it just
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 3: takes it to a whole other level. There's definitely some
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 3: boohooing in this for sure.
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 2: And I thought for a movie that did so many
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 2: things practically, like we've talked about the seag I have,
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 2: like the storm clouds and all that was so cool,
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 2: like I think her.
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, sorry, keep going, no, no, her when she is
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 3: like plunging and seeing her younger self and reaches out
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 3: and then the broom and just like sick. That's just
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 3: stuff you can't do on stage. This is incredible.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I love that. That's also what I would have picked,
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 2: and that like for nothing else than the and nobody
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 2: in all of it, like that whole thing and the
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 2: way she the way she made it her own while
• 1:04:53
  Speaker 2: still walking the line of like it is the song.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 2: We know, she didn't take like too many liberties, you
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 2: know what I mean. Sometimes people can overdo it, and
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 2: it was just it was perfect. It was right down,
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 2: like you couldn't have done it better. I don't think
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 2: it's impossible. I loved it so much. And it's obviously
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 2: like the emotional height as well of that of that act.
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 2: And I'm a weird guy. I like act ones, like
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 2: generally speaking, way more than X two's. It's probably because
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 2: I am such a like a boohooer, but I'm just like,
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I like a little conflict, but I
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 2: like to see people really doing doing well and going
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 2: for it. But yeah, I'm with you, rop. I love
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 2: that scene a ton. A smaller scene that I really
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 2: really liked was the Popular song. I've always thought that
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 2: it's a super funny, silly song. It is one of
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 2: the most musically songs you know that's in the show,
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 2: which in the best way because I love those but
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 2: just the like the vocal inflections and they're like friendship
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 2: slash like kind of frenem me still at that point. Stuff.
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 2: It's really great. I really like that scene a lot.
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 3: Dude, that bit when she has her wand and then
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 3: she's like ball gown and then she's like doing the
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 3: vocal just like like grunting pretty much. I mean, that
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 3: is legitimately funny. That was really funny stuff.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I like that too.
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 5: There are a lot of like in the extras and
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 5: bonus stuff. There's a lot of like extra just improving
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 5: stuff that already did from from that scene. It's so
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 5: she's so funny, it's crazy great.
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 2: Uh what were your runner up, Sammy?
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 5: Yeah, One Short Day in the Emerald City. I oh yeah,
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 5: I think that is my favorite, like the best choreograph
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 5: number I've ever seen in a film adaptation.
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a spectacle. That whole scene was just
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 2: like whoa what is this is amazing because.
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 5: The like choreography is so interesting to watch because it's
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 5: like not it's otherworldly literally, so they're doing these like
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 5: funky movements. But then also there's people doing different things
• 1:07:22
  Speaker 5: everywhere you look. It's not just one dance happening Like
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 5: it's crazy, and it felt.
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 3: Like a continuous shot like and it was going through
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 3: the and maybe it was. It was just group after
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 3: group after group doing different scenes.
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: It was really cool.
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 5: How in the world did they choreograph this? Like yeah,
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 5: so just from like a musical theater a loving perspective
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 5: like that is the most fun thing to look at
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 5: for me in the whole movie. But and then the emotion,
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 5: for the emotional side, what the movie opens up with
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 5: No one warns the wicked pretty much? Is that what
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 5: it's called?
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah, with and of course at this moment the first
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 5: time you're watching it, you don't know everything that comes before,
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 5: no one more than Cycad, but it just gets It's
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 5: it's one of those scenes that like every time I
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 5: watch and now especially having seen part two, the depth
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 5: just gets deeper and deeper with that scene. It's it's
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 5: really really powerful and Arid did so good.
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah she killed it, Oh my god.
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 5: So that I think I included that because it was like,
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 5: it's surprising, I never really cared that much about that song,
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 5: but yeah, it was. It's a really powerful acting moment.
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 5: M what about you guys.
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 2: Other one that I.
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 3: Wrote down that hasn't been mentioned was the Wizard and I.
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 3: It really gets to show you're like, Okay, let's see
• 1:08:57
  Speaker 3: what Cynthia has, and you're like, oh, she's just gonna
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 3: be so good. She's going to be so good. She
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 3: kills that so and you know she's got to go.
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 3: It's kind of your typical I'm out and about and
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 3: I'm singing and I'm fight and total musical song, you know,
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 3: but it's just so charming and just vocally there's just
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 3: nobody better.
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 5: And you mentioned Raber like she like she was vocally
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 5: restrained at points. I think wizard and I is when
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 5: you can really like hear it. She's when I say immature,
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 5: I don't mean like you're so immature. I mean her
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 5: voice sounds younger in that song, less like experienced, like
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 5: it's I don't I'm not a vocalist, so I don't
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 5: even know how you approach that. But yeah, I don't
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 5: know either. Her voice literally sounds like it's like clenched
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 5: a little. Yeah, it's still beautiful, but yeah.
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 2: Also loathing, I just love that tune. So watching that
• 1:09:58
  Speaker 2: scene is so fun and that song is so silly
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 2: and great.
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 5: Is so you know, a lot of musicals have a
• 1:10:06
  Speaker 5: song like that built in because enemies to lovers is
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 5: like a big trope in musicals, and usually that that
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 5: loathing song is written for the romantic couple. So I
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 5: thought it was really cool that it was. There's also
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 5: there's some there's some something saffog going on with the
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 5: two of them, for sure, sure, but I I it's
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 5: it's it's just another thing that separates this show from others,
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 5: is that, like this is Yeah, there's a romantic side plot,
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 5: but it's a side plot. This is about these two
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 5: and it's I love I love their journey.
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 2: I'm now just thinking about the the bonkers fan fiction
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 2: that has to be out there about this universe. Holy
• 1:11:00
  Speaker 2: you know it, you know it, like we got animals
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 2: talking and so boy.
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 5: It's crazy.
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 2: Anyway, I've got some things to google later. How do
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 2: we feel do we feel it? I feel pretty good
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 2: about a duel dingus of the library scene that you said,
• 1:11:21
  Speaker 2: I forget the song. I'm sorry, that's right. Dancing through
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 2: life and then define gravity. I have to find gravity.
• 1:11:27
  Speaker 2: What do we think? Absolutely, we're into it? Boom see
• 1:11:31
  Speaker 2: Should we start talking some quotes? Is the time to
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 2: show me the money, Show me the money, show me
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 2: your first say some quote.
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 5: I don't really have very many.
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 2: Tough didn't either.
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 3: I'm with you to musicals because you want to just
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 3: like do the song.
• 1:11:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, right right.
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 5: I was just going to say, I feel like the
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 5: best lines are lyrics, but I have a few. They're
• 1:12:00
  Speaker 5: mostly Ari in the very beginning, when she says to Bach,
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 5: you know what, I you know what. I believe he's like,
• 1:12:11
  Speaker 5: what she's like. Strangers are just people I've never met,
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 5: so great. She delivers it and it's like like it's
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 5: a profound thing. It's like, yeah, it's just.
• 1:12:21
  Speaker 2: A fact, it's just the definition. But okay, cool.
• 1:12:24
  Speaker 5: Yeah, like the polite the most polite way to turn someone,
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 5: like to reject someone. And then in their dorm when
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 5: she Elbet goes to shut the windows and she's like,
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 5: oh could you not? I just I so enjoy air.
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 7: She like.
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 2: The hair flot thing thing right, like that's straight from
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 2: the show.
• 1:12:54
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I think so. I mean it's so like
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 5: it's it feels like it's like legally but like it's
• 1:13:00
  Speaker 5: so that that girl, you know.
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 2: She's stiff, but like Corre, I love.
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 5: Okay, uh whatever they put it in the they put
• 1:13:20
  Speaker 5: it in the movie. There's there's there's there's a line
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 5: when uh Fierro and Alphaba first meet and she's so
• 1:13:30
  Speaker 5: she's so defensive with him, but then at the end
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 5: she walks away and she goes gets stuffed, And.
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 3: I love it.
• 1:13:42
  Speaker 5: For reasons. I mean, I feel like.
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 3: That's it.
• 1:13:48
  Speaker 5: That's what I'll say. I love it after right before Popular,
• 1:13:54
  Speaker 5: when Alphaba and Glinda have been talking all night and
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 5: sharing vulnerable stuff and then Ari looks Glinda looks out
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 5: the window. Look, it's tomorrow. It's so cute. And that's
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 5: that's a line from the play that she was like,
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 5: I'm saying that there's a lot I meant to say this,
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 5: but like there's so much that specifically Cynthia and Ari
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 5: have advocated for like nope, we're keeping that from the play,
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 5: Like there's uh, there's a lot like that. And then
• 1:14:29
  Speaker 5: my the last one I have is it's in the
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 5: middle of defying gravity, but it's this like a talking moment.
• 1:14:38
  Speaker 5: It's when our uh Glinda says, sings to her you
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 5: can you can have all you've ever wanted and the
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 5: way I mean I've heard it a million times. Yeah,
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 5: I know the way, like because it's in the song.
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 5: I know, but I don't want it the way Cynthia said,
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 5: as I know. Yeah, she she's like I know, like
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 5: like she knows her power now, like she doesn't need
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 5: to be convinced of like I know, like yeah, because
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 5: because I feel like every alphabet I have seen is
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 5: like grappling with the like like saying that line more
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 5: grappling on the side of like I know, like it's
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 5: still really hard to let this go. But Cynthia was like,
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 5: I know, like I'm more powerful than him, Like I
• 1:15:31
  Speaker 5: don't want that, and it was, Oh, it moves me.
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 5: I have goosebumps just thinking about it. And it's just
• 1:15:39
  Speaker 5: I know that's the shortest sentence. She's so those are
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 5: all I out.
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 2: Those are great.
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 3: The Wizard saying the best way to bring folks together
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 3: is to give them a.
• 1:15:52
  Speaker 2: Real good enemy. Amen. Amen, that one. That one works
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 2: a lot. Glinda, something is very wrong.
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 3: I didn't get my way. I need to lie down.
• 1:16:06
  Speaker 2: I like that. When she's like running along with the train.
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 3: Yes, She's like, I wouldn't want to impose, and she's like,
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 3: it doesn't it doesn't matter. Just come with me.
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 2: I couldn't possibly. This is your moment. I'm coming. I'm coming.
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 2: That That was pretty cute.
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 7: I like that.
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 2: Bow and yang.
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 3: She's so brave, such braverism, she felt it felt like
• 1:16:36
  Speaker 3: he improved it. But also using their goofy language, yes,
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 3: which I enjoyed.
• 1:16:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, their wordplay in this in this hole, it's really
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 2: fun and silly, Like it really brings you back into silly,
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 2: silly times, which is fun.
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 3: When Glinda is meeting the Wizard and she's like, the
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 3: gut is silent and he's just like, hello, oh, Linda.
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 2: I like pretty great.
• 1:17:05
  Speaker 3: And the last one, uh, when she is showing Feara
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 3: feara through the library and she's like, and this is
• 1:17:13
  Speaker 3: the book place.
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 2: I liked that. That's a great one.
• 1:17:20
  Speaker 3: I love that.
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 2: I love when they're in the room and she's like, Elfie,
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 2: can I call you Alfie? And then she's like, and
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 2: you can call me Ga Linda. She's like, that's your
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 2: that is your name, and she's like, let's not quarrel.
• 1:17:35
  Speaker 2: Just that cot. I love that, just like no. Also,
• 1:17:40
  Speaker 2: they're talking when they're writing the letters and she goes
• 1:17:44
  Speaker 2: dearest darling, mumsy and popsicle. That made me giggle a lot,
• 1:17:49
  Speaker 2: and I liked it. It was very fun. And then
• 1:17:51
  Speaker 2: at that I think it's towards the end of that
• 1:17:53
  Speaker 2: song when they're they're both trying to describe each other
• 1:17:56
  Speaker 2: and they're like, it's hard to say, and then they're like,
• 1:17:58
  Speaker 2: my roommate is unusually an exceed peculiar and all together
• 1:18:01
  Speaker 2: quite impossible to describe. And then Alpha but just goes blonde,
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 2: which is really I.
• 1:18:08
  Speaker 5: Love that moment too. I was just talking about this
• 1:18:11
  Speaker 5: this morning, but that's such a fun little like moment
• 1:18:17
  Speaker 5: as a I guess in the screen player in the whatever,
• 1:18:21
  Speaker 5: no in the in the book, like that's in the
• 1:18:24
  Speaker 5: musical because they're both kind of not being truthful there, right,
• 1:18:32
  Speaker 5: Glinda is. The reason she doesn't like her is because
• 1:18:35
  Speaker 5: she's green and ugly, and but she's so concerned with
• 1:18:42
  Speaker 5: being seen as good that she's like it's kind of
• 1:18:47
  Speaker 5: hard to like, she's screaming her way around. And Alpha
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 5: BA doesn't not like Glinda because she's blonde. She doesn't
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 5: like her because she's judgmental and you know, entitled, But
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 5: she's so defiant that she's like and doesn't she has
• 1:19:10
  Speaker 5: such walls around her heart that she's like that it's
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 5: too vulnerable to even admit that. So she's like, I
• 1:19:16
  Speaker 5: just she's blonde. And so they're like both lying about
• 1:19:19
  Speaker 5: why they don't like each other. And I just love
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 5: that moment of writing.
• 1:19:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, A moment I really loved. We haven't really talked
• 1:19:29
  Speaker 2: about her. Vnessa Rose. She was good.
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 5: Her name is Marissa Bodie. I met her the other day.
• 1:19:37
  Speaker 5: Oh how fun she was at she was at my theater.
• 1:19:43
  Speaker 5: Oh god, I made a school out of myself. You guys,
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 5: so I went Day one, which I knew the theater
• 1:19:53
  Speaker 5: would be packed, but I wasn't expecting there was a
• 1:19:56
  Speaker 5: group of like twenty four people that went right before me,
• 1:20:00
  Speaker 5: and a couple of people were in wheelchairs. I didn't
• 1:20:02
  Speaker 5: think anything of it, but then at the at the
• 1:20:05
  Speaker 5: very very end, when Marissa's name came up on the screen,
• 1:20:08
  Speaker 5: they all started screaming like I was like, oh my god,
• 1:20:12
  Speaker 5: these are her friends. It was like twenty four people
• 1:20:16
  Speaker 5: there for her. And when I leave the theater, people
• 1:20:19
  Speaker 5: are like talk like she's there and people are talking
• 1:20:22
  Speaker 5: to her, and I'm like, okay, I'm like still wiping
• 1:20:25
  Speaker 5: away my tears and I'm like all right, I like
• 1:20:31
  Speaker 5: everything in me says to just keep walking. But like
• 1:20:34
  Speaker 5: she's at a screening on day one, like she's good. Yeah.
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 5: So I was like, I'll just say something because I
• 1:20:42
  Speaker 5: don't want to, like I don't want to look rude,
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 5: Like I'm like, call me when Cynthia gets here, like no.
• 1:20:50
  Speaker 5: So I did go up to her, but I was
• 1:20:53
  Speaker 5: still like so overwhelmed from the movie that I started
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 5: getting choked up all lot was talking to her, and
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 5: then because I didn't want her, Okay, I know what
• 1:21:05
  Speaker 5: it's like to have to witness someone coming up to
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 5: someone and gushing and and maybe maybe like putting their
• 1:21:15
  Speaker 5: feelings a little bit too much on that person. I
• 1:21:18
  Speaker 5: know I've witnessed it, and so I didn't want to
• 1:21:20
  Speaker 5: do that. So then because I started getting choked up,
• 1:21:23
  Speaker 5: I was like, this isn't because of you.
• 1:21:28
  Speaker 2: You're like, oh, I don't mean.
• 1:21:33
  Speaker 5: I was like, this is it was just the movie
• 1:21:36
  Speaker 5: and she's like, it's an emotional movie. I was like, yeah,
• 1:21:39
  Speaker 5: it is, but I just wanted to tell you, and
• 1:21:41
  Speaker 5: then I don't know, I kind of blacked out for
• 1:21:43
  Speaker 5: the rest of it. I complimented her. She was kind,
• 1:21:46
  Speaker 5: but I walked away from that think I was like,
• 1:21:49
  Speaker 5: I just was like, I'm not crying because of you.
• 1:21:51
  Speaker 3: Like right, I want you to know, Okay, yeah, I
• 1:21:56
  Speaker 3: don't want you to get a big head here. I'm uh,
• 1:22:00
  Speaker 3: you were you were fine emotional because of what I
• 1:22:04
  Speaker 3: just saw. Yeah, I love that.
• 1:22:09
  Speaker 5: I was like, I don't think she thought of it
• 1:22:13
  Speaker 5: once satter. I'm but I was like, in the moment,
• 1:22:17
  Speaker 5: I feel like I was one of those people who
• 1:22:19
  Speaker 5: like the person is.
• 1:22:20
  Speaker 2: Just like okay, yeah, that's awesome.
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 5: But yeah, she was great.
• 1:22:28
  Speaker 2: She is.
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 3: I really liked her and this, Oh.
• 1:22:31
  Speaker 2: I didn't say the moment, sorry, the it's when the
• 1:22:37
  Speaker 2: might be Cilla comes up and is like in a
• 1:22:39
  Speaker 2: pusher in the wheelchair and they say in tandem, don't
• 1:22:43
  Speaker 2: help her slash me. I love that moment so much.
• 1:22:47
  Speaker 2: Number one, just from like people I've known that that
• 1:22:50
  Speaker 2: use wheelchairs and they're just like, hey, don't do that
• 1:22:53
  Speaker 2: unless we've talked or you know, like whatever. But also
• 1:22:57
  Speaker 2: just showing there they really the Arcolos sisters, you know,
• 1:23:01
  Speaker 2: despite being treated like very differently from one another. And
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 2: I just love that moment. I thought it was really
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 2: really great. Another small, tiny moment, but they did it
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 2: so well.
• 1:23:10
  Speaker 5: That's great.
• 1:23:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, another one do I Oh, I loved the Alphaba
• 1:23:17
  Speaker 2: and Fierra. We kind of referenced it. But when she
• 1:23:20
  Speaker 2: goes into her list, when he first sees her and
• 1:23:23
  Speaker 2: sees she's green, is what she thinks, right, And she's like, no,
• 1:23:26
  Speaker 2: I'm not seasick, and he's just like, either mine, No,
• 1:23:29
  Speaker 2: I did not eat grass as a child, And he's like,
• 1:23:31
  Speaker 2: oh you didn't, I did, you know, and just like
• 1:23:34
  Speaker 2: kind of going opposite and then it's like and yes,
• 1:23:37
  Speaker 2: I've always been green and the defensiveness is that a
• 1:23:40
  Speaker 2: recent development? Sure? You just thought he was so he
• 1:23:44
  Speaker 2: was so great in that moment. That seems really fun too,
• 1:23:47
  Speaker 2: because he like immediately shows he's not just the heart
• 1:23:51
  Speaker 2: throb guy, because he's like actually talking to the horse
• 1:23:54
  Speaker 2: who is his friend. They clearly have like camaraderie. It's
• 1:23:58
  Speaker 2: not just a you know, all that stuff. So I
• 1:24:01
  Speaker 2: love that. And then it's early but that are people
• 1:24:07
  Speaker 2: born wicked or do they have wickedness thrust upon them?
• 1:24:10
  Speaker 2: I think? Is like I mean kind of the sentiment
• 1:24:14
  Speaker 2: of the show. Right, Yeah, So I just thought that
• 1:24:17
  Speaker 2: was great. Those were most of the ones I had that,
• 1:24:22
  Speaker 2: Like we said, love it.
• 1:24:23
  Speaker 5: That's good. Those are good ones.
• 1:24:25
  Speaker 3: Those are good ones. Well let's move on, let's go
• 1:24:27
  Speaker 3: to the crying games bugs boohoo moment. Why you probably
• 1:24:34
  Speaker 3: had many more than I thought. I had a tough
• 1:24:37
  Speaker 3: time because, for example, in Defying Gravity, I found myself
• 1:24:43
  Speaker 3: getting emotional like five different times.
• 1:24:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's fair.
• 1:24:48
  Speaker 3: So I said, from five to ten times, love it.
• 1:24:53
  Speaker 3: And the first time was when baby Alphaba is taken
• 1:24:58
  Speaker 3: away and the sweet bear takes care.
• 1:24:59
  Speaker 2: Of her, the sweetest that bear deserves a trophy.
• 1:25:03
  Speaker 7: Absolutely, Yeah, absolutely the end of the Wizard and I
• 1:25:09
  Speaker 7: absolutely yes, yep, the oz dust ballroom hat dance scene,
• 1:25:18
  Speaker 7: the ugly hat.
• 1:25:19
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yes, yes, yeah, when when Glinda puts the
• 1:25:29
  Speaker 3: flower on Elfie and says, oh Elfie, you're beautiful. Yeah,
• 1:25:34
  Speaker 3: that is lovely, lovely, And then yeah, I just said
• 1:25:38
  Speaker 3: so many moments in the last fifteen minutes. It's the
• 1:25:41
  Speaker 3: Wizard who should be afraid of me? When Glinda gets
• 1:25:46
  Speaker 3: the cape for Elfie, yes, and yeah, like five times
• 1:25:52
  Speaker 3: so to find gravity. So that's what I had.
• 1:25:56
  Speaker 2: I love that.
• 1:25:57
  Speaker 3: I didn't know if you were going to have any
• 1:25:58
  Speaker 3: of the Peter Dinklice is the goat what it was named,
• 1:26:02
  Speaker 3: doctor Dilman. I didn't know if any of that stuff
• 1:26:08
  Speaker 3: was gonna I did be emotional, Okay, I don't have
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 3: any friends.
• 1:26:11
  Speaker 2: Well maybe just one that did get me, because that
• 1:26:15
  Speaker 2: is a beautiful little relationship that's happening.
• 1:26:18
  Speaker 3: There were some good ones there and.
• 1:26:21
  Speaker 2: Podcasts, you know, like that's kind of a trope, but
• 1:26:24
  Speaker 2: it's also just a thing. Sorry, I was gonna say.
• 1:26:28
  Speaker 3: And then like the lion in the cage bit maybe.
• 1:26:32
  Speaker 2: Possibly No, that didn't get me for some reason.
• 1:26:35
  Speaker 3: You neither.
• 1:26:36
  Speaker 5: I don't know you hate lions.
• 1:26:38
  Speaker 2: You hate I actually desperately love the cowardly Lion, and
• 1:26:42
  Speaker 2: I would love to play him someday. I think that
• 1:26:45
  Speaker 2: would be very fun. But yeah, no, I don't hate lions.
• 1:26:49
  Speaker 2: I just to test everything there about. No, that didn't
• 1:26:54
  Speaker 2: get me though, that seemed that specific. One should just
• 1:26:59
  Speaker 2: go through what I have. Yeah, Su're not wrong. This
• 1:27:04
  Speaker 2: is a problem with me emotionally. Musicals, especially first songs,
• 1:27:11
  Speaker 2: get me. So no one mourns the wicked, just like
• 1:27:13
  Speaker 2: that first the chorus coming in and everything that that
• 1:27:17
  Speaker 2: got me. That got me real good NESSA and Bach
• 1:27:21
  Speaker 2: when they say we deserve each other for a song anyway, Yeah,
• 1:27:26
  Speaker 2: I love that. I love you for a complicated moment
• 1:27:31
  Speaker 2: in retrospect, but yeah, we'll go on from there. I
• 1:27:35
  Speaker 2: did make a note basically just the last twenty seven
• 1:27:38
  Speaker 2: minutes I was crying, so there is that something has
• 1:27:42
  Speaker 2: changed within me. Obviously. Oh you said the cape, so
• 1:27:45
  Speaker 2: we had that think of what we can accomplish together.
• 1:27:50
  Speaker 2: It's so great. The line I hope you're happy now
• 1:27:53
  Speaker 2: that you're choosing this. I hope it brings you bliss
• 1:27:56
  Speaker 2: just felt so real, especially like anyone who's been in friendship,
• 1:28:03
  Speaker 2: romantic relationship, whatever where you were like, I guess we're diverging,
• 1:28:08
  Speaker 2: but it's not because we don't care for each other.
• 1:28:09
  Speaker 2: It's just like this road's done now you know it's
• 1:28:13
  Speaker 2: not for them, but you know, we digress. And then yeah,
• 1:28:18
  Speaker 2: just the whole defining gravity was just it racked me,
• 1:28:23
  Speaker 2: rock me. Yeah, se I think that is thirteen.
• 1:28:29
  Speaker 3: Well, wow, we've been on a streak of zero.
• 1:28:32
  Speaker 2: So it was good. It felt cathartic.
• 1:28:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we needed Yeah, you needed I needed a thirteen.
• 1:28:37
  Speaker 2: Listen, if you think the only time I cried during movies,
• 1:28:40
  Speaker 2: we have not communicated.
• 1:28:42
  Speaker 5: Well, so I have a question about the Bahoo's is
• 1:28:48
  Speaker 5: is this How many times have you seen Wicked?
• 1:28:52
  Speaker 2: Only twice? And I think I do think if this
• 1:28:55
  Speaker 2: was a movie I've seen a bunch, it would be
• 1:28:57
  Speaker 2: way more more. Yeah, he gets weird, like when we
• 1:29:05
  Speaker 2: did that, that's that was like a million because then
• 1:29:07
  Speaker 2: it's like it was it's kind of like you're talking
• 1:29:09
  Speaker 2: where you're like these little moments and you think of
• 1:29:12
  Speaker 2: the whole breadth of their relationship and stuff.
• 1:29:14
  Speaker 5: So is it when a tear escapes the eyeball?
• 1:29:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it is. It is a continuum of Misty to
• 1:29:22
  Speaker 2: tears Falling for sure, too ugly crime, which doesn't happen
• 1:29:27
  Speaker 2: in every movie, but it definitely happens in Endgame for instance.
• 1:29:31
  Speaker 3: The first Yeah, the first time I saw this, I
• 1:29:35
  Speaker 3: saw it in the theater with Kelsey, and I didn't
• 1:29:39
  Speaker 3: get that emotional, but it was mostly because Kelsey gets
• 1:29:42
  Speaker 3: like emotional in movies.
• 1:29:44
  Speaker 2: But not like she got in this really got her.
• 1:29:47
  Speaker 3: It's like she was like sobb and so and it
• 1:29:53
  Speaker 3: was kind of like and I don't want to be
• 1:29:55
  Speaker 3: like you're taking me out of this, but it was
• 1:29:57
  Speaker 3: like I was kind of like are we good?
• 1:30:00
  Speaker 2: Like do we need to leave? Like is there which
• 1:30:03
  Speaker 2: is like yeah, yeah.
• 1:30:06
  Speaker 3: So it was it was nice being able to see
• 1:30:08
  Speaker 3: it again just kind of by myself and just like
• 1:30:12
  Speaker 3: get to feel those feelings, you know.
• 1:30:14
  Speaker 2: What I mean, she's next to you, just like.
• 1:30:17
  Speaker 3: All right, and then but dude, it was so funny
• 1:30:19
  Speaker 3: because then we went into the car and like we
• 1:30:22
  Speaker 3: sat in the parking lot for a while, like she
• 1:30:24
  Speaker 3: was very upset, but not upset.
• 1:30:28
  Speaker 2: Just like she was emotional. She was definitely feeling it,
• 1:30:32
  Speaker 2: and it was it was pretty fun because I seen
• 1:30:35
  Speaker 2: her do it from movies before, so it was really
• 1:30:37
  Speaker 2: so how lovely to have a piece of art touch
• 1:30:40
  Speaker 2: you in such a love you know, I like that
• 1:30:43
  Speaker 2: a lot. But yes, it is usually tears falling sometimes
• 1:30:48
  Speaker 2: because mistery you know, we'll see but I don't. I
• 1:30:52
  Speaker 2: don't take a lot of liberties with it. It's usually
• 1:30:54
  Speaker 2: pretty rigit.
• 1:30:56
  Speaker 5: So I had I don't count my bahoo's this time,
• 1:30:59
  Speaker 5: but I I've seen. I think I've seen it either
• 1:31:03
  Speaker 5: nine or ten times. I saw I saw six times
• 1:31:06
  Speaker 5: in theater and a few times since, and uh, it's
• 1:31:12
  Speaker 5: it has it's now become like like for me, it
• 1:31:16
  Speaker 5: takes a lot to like physically get the tears out
• 1:31:19
  Speaker 5: like I can. I can like choke get choked up
• 1:31:23
  Speaker 5: real easy. But I was like, Adam, will you just
• 1:31:26
  Speaker 5: like kind of sit in here and take a note
• 1:31:28
  Speaker 5: every time I start crying.
• 1:31:31
  Speaker 3: Just watching you like a hawk, that would take me
• 1:31:34
  Speaker 3: out of it.
• 1:31:35
  Speaker 5: Be like, well, you know, he he's good about that.
• 1:31:38
  Speaker 5: He was playing a little game on his and every
• 1:31:41
  Speaker 5: time I like sniffled or something, he'd kind of look
• 1:31:44
  Speaker 5: at me in just like write it down.
• 1:31:45
  Speaker 2: That's the best.
• 1:31:47
  Speaker 5: But so I think there were probably moments that I,
• 1:31:50
  Speaker 5: like I was choked up, but he didn't notice or
• 1:31:53
  Speaker 5: like that tears never came out because I only had three,
• 1:31:57
  Speaker 5: And I was like, I think it's because I've seen
• 1:31:58
  Speaker 5: it so many times.
• 1:32:00
  Speaker 3: That's how I am too. I think that, honestly is
• 1:32:03
  Speaker 3: how let's.
• 1:32:05
  Speaker 2: Let's take it easy. I hear the saying. I hear it.
• 1:32:10
  Speaker 2: I heard normal people, is what I heard say normal.
• 1:32:14
  Speaker 2: I'm not saying you said it a lot.
• 1:32:17
  Speaker 3: Many others would feel.
• 1:32:20
  Speaker 2: Balanced people would probably responded.
• 1:32:26
  Speaker 5: No, but I I I thought it would be fun
• 1:32:29
  Speaker 5: if you could guess which three got me. But I
• 1:32:32
  Speaker 5: feel like we've mentioned all of the crying moments, had to.
• 1:32:38
  Speaker 3: Sure these of course these are.
• 1:32:42
  Speaker 5: The three that got me, like yeah, yeah, the whole
• 1:32:50
  Speaker 5: like you said, the last half hour of the movie,
• 1:32:52
  Speaker 5: just yeah, what are the odds?
• 1:32:54
  Speaker 3: Dust ballroom dance scene.
• 1:32:56
  Speaker 2: Yes, yep, yep, good call, good shot, good shout.
• 1:33:03
  Speaker 5: It has been mentioned.
• 1:33:04
  Speaker 2: I'll say that, Okay, m hm, mysel you look beautiful.
• 1:33:13
  Speaker 5: No, it takes a lot, like I can't just like
• 1:33:16
  Speaker 5: a single line is.
• 1:33:17
  Speaker 2: Not gonna make me cry a little, judge, but I
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 2: hear you.
• 1:33:19
  Speaker 3: No, no, no, I wish.
• 1:33:22
  Speaker 5: I wish it was that accessible.
• 1:33:24
  Speaker 3: Glinda getting the cape for Elfie that's is that?
• 1:33:27
  Speaker 2: K Yeah, that's what I thought to the.
• 1:33:32
  Speaker 5: End of the Wizard and I no, I have in
• 1:33:37
  Speaker 5: the in the in the previous watches, I have absolutely
• 1:33:40
  Speaker 5: cried through Wizard, but this time it was no One
• 1:33:43
  Speaker 5: Wren so wicked because I'm telling you, the more you
• 1:33:49
  Speaker 5: watch this movie and the second one, that scene becomes
• 1:33:53
  Speaker 5: so much heavier, so that as probably that scene is
• 1:33:58
  Speaker 5: the only one in the whole thing that like, I
• 1:34:00
  Speaker 5: cry more every time I see it because I'm like, oh.
• 1:34:04
  Speaker 2: I love that well very some boohoos. People cry it's
• 1:34:09
  Speaker 2: good for you. Yeah, and also seek help if you
• 1:34:15
  Speaker 2: need it, because you know, maybe you don't need to
• 1:34:16
  Speaker 2: cry all the time. I've said too much. Let's go
• 1:34:19
  Speaker 2: to some movie t rivia here. Apparently Stephen Schwartz thought
• 1:34:25
  Speaker 2: to modernize Glinda's Big Number popular by giving it more
• 1:34:28
  Speaker 2: of a hip hop style rhythm, and like you said earlier, Sammy,
• 1:34:32
  Speaker 2: Ariana Gronde was like no. She was apparently dead set
• 1:34:36
  Speaker 2: against the suggestion, and is quoted as saying, absolutely not.
• 1:34:40
  Speaker 2: Don't do it. I want to be Glinda, not Ariana
• 1:34:43
  Speaker 2: Grande playing Glinda, so good for her, that would have
• 1:34:46
  Speaker 2: been worse. I'm maybe better, but it would.
• 1:34:49
  Speaker 5: Have scared me a lot, So it would have she
• 1:34:52
  Speaker 5: would have caught so much fuck for that, like as
• 1:34:55
  Speaker 5: if it was her decision.
• 1:34:56
  Speaker 2: Everyone would have thought it was her idea. Everyone was yeah,
• 1:34:59
  Speaker 2: one hundred percent, let's see. As well as extensive CGI environments,
• 1:35:04
  Speaker 2: massive practical sets were built for the film's main settings.
• 1:35:08
  Speaker 2: As we talked about John Chu said that he just
• 1:35:11
  Speaker 2: wanted the world of Oz to feel like a real
• 1:35:14
  Speaker 2: place for the actors and actresses rather than just computer generated.
• 1:35:18
  Speaker 2: And this includes and we referenced this, but the number
• 1:35:21
  Speaker 2: is insane. They planted nine million tulips to serve as
• 1:35:25
  Speaker 2: part of the landscape for munchkin Land, and they did
• 1:35:30
  Speaker 2: still use video effects for some of those wider shots,
• 1:35:33
  Speaker 2: but nine million toolips were planted. Practically insane.
• 1:35:39
  Speaker 5: Fun fact, it was the same man who was hired
• 1:35:45
  Speaker 5: to he grew the cornfields for Intertellar oh single.
• 1:35:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well they should keep doing that because it does do.
• 1:35:53
  Speaker 3: It, It really does.
• 1:35:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, nine million, that's an insane number. Duo insisted on
• 1:36:01
  Speaker 2: singing live during filming, and according to director John Cheu,
• 1:36:06
  Speaker 2: he said, when we were shooting at these girls were like, naw,
• 1:36:09
  Speaker 2: screw this. Pre records we're going live, which is very
• 1:36:12
  Speaker 2: brave and cool of them. He was initially skeptical, he says,
• 1:36:16
  Speaker 2: but since there'd be a lot of wind in their
• 1:36:19
  Speaker 2: airpipes and just like a lot of moving around and singing,
• 1:36:21
  Speaker 2: and they basically were just like, yeah, that's what we do. Guy, Like,
• 1:36:25
  Speaker 2: we're gonna be okay. And I think the movie's better
• 1:36:28
  Speaker 2: for it, for sure. And it's also crazy impressive that
• 1:36:32
  Speaker 2: they did that so well.
• 1:36:33
  Speaker 5: They were like, we you know, there's girls every single
• 1:36:37
  Speaker 5: night doing that in New.
• 1:36:38
  Speaker 2: Your City Broadway. Yeah tour, yea. But yeah, so I
• 1:36:44
  Speaker 2: just think that's really cool. The vocals for the ensemble
• 1:36:46
  Speaker 2: parts were pre recorded, and they were pre recorded by
• 1:36:49
  Speaker 2: a number of Broadway performers, including a bunch of the
• 1:36:52
  Speaker 2: alumni from Wicked on Broadway. So that's really cool. And
• 1:36:57
  Speaker 2: I think singing those live would be tough, but yeah,
• 1:37:01
  Speaker 2: so many people. Let's see, Oh, mursa bodie is it body?
• 1:37:07
  Speaker 2: So you said how you pronounced her. She's the first
• 1:37:11
  Speaker 2: person in Wicked's history that portrayed nessa Rose that actually
• 1:37:16
  Speaker 2: does use a wheelchair and has a physical disability, So
• 1:37:19
  Speaker 2: that's really cool. I thought she did a great.
• 1:37:21
  Speaker 5: Job and a fact about it comes in act too.
• 1:37:26
  Speaker 5: But the reason they could never put someone on the
• 1:37:30
  Speaker 5: stage play who uses a wheelchair is because it's kind
• 1:37:33
  Speaker 5: of like an ablest storyline. She she like wants, she
• 1:37:40
  Speaker 5: like has given the power to walk. Yeah, so there
• 1:37:45
  Speaker 5: could not literally ever be in the way that the
• 1:37:49
  Speaker 5: stage play is now a wheelchair user.
• 1:37:53
  Speaker 2: Be interesting to see what they do with that in
• 1:37:55
  Speaker 2: future like revivals now, because because the movie so you know,
• 1:38:00
  Speaker 2: kind of like the same as like, well, I think
• 1:38:02
  Speaker 2: she's just gonna be black now alfaba, right makes sense,
• 1:38:05
  Speaker 2: But yeah, it'll be interesting to see what happens with that. Yeah,
• 1:38:09
  Speaker 2: it'll be neat uh Alphaba. The name of the Wicked
• 1:38:14
  Speaker 2: Witch was created by taking the phonetic pronunciation of the
• 1:38:18
  Speaker 2: original Wizard of Oz author L. Frank Baum's initials LFB.
• 1:38:24
  Speaker 2: That that was interesting. H To help publicize the film
• 1:38:29
  Speaker 2: on the day of its UK release, Jeff Goldbloom said
• 1:38:32
  Speaker 2: in London's is it Saint Pancras? I think that's right
• 1:38:36
  Speaker 2: International Railway Station playing the piano and drawing attention of
• 1:38:40
  Speaker 2: the surprised public and tourists. Oh cool, that'll been to
• 1:38:44
  Speaker 2: just see him out there. He's good? Yeah, is he good?
• 1:38:47
  Speaker 2: At it.
• 1:38:48
  Speaker 3: He's a jazz pianist, for sure.
• 1:38:52
  Speaker 2: He is just the coolest man on earth. That's so cool.
• 1:38:55
  Speaker 3: He's really cool.
• 1:38:57
  Speaker 2: According to John Hue, several birds built in the constructed
• 1:39:01
  Speaker 2: forest set and would sing along with Cynthia Ribo when
• 1:39:04
  Speaker 2: she was performing I'm Not That Girl, to the point
• 1:39:07
  Speaker 2: that a production assistants had to project calls from birds
• 1:39:10
  Speaker 2: of prey in order to quiet the real birds down
• 1:39:13
  Speaker 2: so they could film. That's amazing.
• 1:39:19
  Speaker 5: That's amazing, so great.
• 1:39:22
  Speaker 2: The horse Fierro rides on this film is named Jack,
• 1:39:26
  Speaker 2: and Jack is the same horse that he rode in Bridgerton.
• 1:39:32
  Speaker 2: Apparently Jonathan Bailey felt such a good connection with Jack
• 1:39:35
  Speaker 2: that when he was making his series, he asked to
• 1:39:37
  Speaker 2: ride him again, which I think is fun.
• 1:39:40
  Speaker 5: That's really cute.
• 1:39:41
  Speaker 2: Good for Jack's agent. Two. The shadow that Alphaba's handmakes
• 1:39:45
  Speaker 2: when she's training with the Madame Morrible is it's an
• 1:39:49
  Speaker 2: homage to the famous photo of Margaret Hamilton from the
• 1:39:52
  Speaker 2: original list of Boss, of course, which is fun. This
• 1:39:57
  Speaker 2: is the first non Disney musical to gross over a
• 1:40:00
  Speaker 2: hundred million dollars domestically in its opening weekend. Wow weekend. Yeah,
• 1:40:06
  Speaker 2: that's crazy. That's a lot of that. That's awesome, but
• 1:40:09
  Speaker 2: they needed a lot because they had to pay for
• 1:40:11
  Speaker 2: nine million tulips at least. So during the popular song,
• 1:40:17
  Speaker 2: Glinda showcases the ruby slippers and then taps them together
• 1:40:20
  Speaker 2: three times, a homage to No Place Like Home from
• 1:40:23
  Speaker 2: the original. I also I had I don't remember if
• 1:40:27
  Speaker 2: I wrote it down or not, but the the ruby
• 1:40:30
  Speaker 2: slippers and this one are not ruby that was apparently
• 1:40:33
  Speaker 2: in the source material. They're diamond. I guess they're just
• 1:40:36
  Speaker 2: white and as part of the technicolor in the first
• 1:40:40
  Speaker 2: Wizard of Oz, they wanted to make them a color,
• 1:40:42
  Speaker 2: so they popped more, which I think is pretty fun,
• 1:40:45
  Speaker 2: and they look so good as rubies.
• 1:40:48
  Speaker 5: And aside from sticking to the source text, I think
• 1:40:51
  Speaker 5: they literally don't have the rights to make them, really,
• 1:40:56
  Speaker 5: I think I I saw somebody chat about that somewhere,
• 1:41:00
  Speaker 5: like one of.
• 1:41:00
  Speaker 2: The makers of the as Yeah, maybe because they wasn't
• 1:41:04
  Speaker 2: in the source but it was in the movie, so
• 1:41:05
  Speaker 2: then that's different. Maybe interesting.
• 1:41:08
  Speaker 5: Yeah, So they were like, well, I guess we'll just
• 1:41:09
  Speaker 5: do what they do in the book.
• 1:41:11
  Speaker 2: But that's cool. We talked about there was a lot
• 1:41:15
  Speaker 2: of ad libbing, which is fun and apparently in the extras,
• 1:41:19
  Speaker 2: you'll get to see a bunch of that, so go
• 1:41:21
  Speaker 2: buy it digitally if you won't do it. In order
• 1:41:24
  Speaker 2: to help the hair and makeup team, Ariana Grande bleached
• 1:41:27
  Speaker 2: her hair and her eyebrows, and Cynthia reveal, Wow, I
• 1:41:33
  Speaker 2: don't like the first one, but good for them. No,
• 1:41:37
  Speaker 2: that's pretty cool. Cynthia also wore green prosthetic ears so
• 1:41:42
  Speaker 2: that she didn't have to remove her ear rings, which
• 1:41:45
  Speaker 2: I think is pretty fun, and Ariana Grande admitted to
• 1:41:49
  Speaker 2: keeping a pair of the fake ears the ears.
• 1:41:57
  Speaker 5: I did not know that.
• 1:41:59
  Speaker 2: I think that's pretty silly and fun. John Chu cited
• 1:42:02
  Speaker 2: fantasy films Pleasantville and The Truman Show as influencing how
• 1:42:06
  Speaker 2: The Wicked story thematically portrays the land of Oz and
• 1:42:12
  Speaker 2: I just thought that was really cool and it played out.
• 1:42:14
  Speaker 2: After I heard that, I was like, oh, I can
• 1:42:16
  Speaker 2: see pleasant Villain there, you know, in like the way
• 1:42:19
  Speaker 2: they do things. That's really neat. According to the original
• 1:42:24
  Speaker 2: Broadway actress of Glinda Kristin Chenna, with the higher Glinda sings,
• 1:42:28
  Speaker 2: the less sincere she is during No One Warns the Wicked,
• 1:42:32
  Speaker 2: the number she sings particularly high. Take from that what
• 1:42:36
  Speaker 2: you will nessa rose is scene wearing the striped socks
• 1:42:41
  Speaker 2: with the jeweled slippers, also an homage to the original,
• 1:42:45
  Speaker 2: which is really fun. When doctor Dillmand explains to Elfabo
• 1:42:53
  Speaker 2: what's happening in Oz, he tells her that the very
• 1:42:57
  Speaker 2: old authoritarian tactic is to create a common false enemy.
• 1:43:00
  Speaker 2: As we talked about the fact that Dillomand is talking
• 1:43:05
  Speaker 2: about this, and he is a talking goat, and obviously
• 1:43:10
  Speaker 2: making a common enemy as someone to blame for something
• 1:43:14
  Speaker 2: is called a scapegoat, making them a scapegoat. So that's
• 1:43:17
  Speaker 2: just a fun little wordplay action that's happening there. And
• 1:43:21
  Speaker 2: then there's a few easter eggs that were listed in
• 1:43:24
  Speaker 2: this one referring to the original Wizard of Oz that
• 1:43:26
  Speaker 2: we haven't mentioned. In the opening shots of the film,
• 1:43:29
  Speaker 2: cameras follow the flying monkeys over a misty waterfall, creating
• 1:43:33
  Speaker 2: an aridescent rainbow, not of course, to somewhere over the rainbow.
• 1:43:37
  Speaker 2: In the opening scene, you can see Dorothy Toto, Scarecrow,
• 1:43:40
  Speaker 2: tin Man, and the Cowardly Lion walking on the yellow
• 1:43:43
  Speaker 2: brick road. Alva BoA's bicycle with a basket on the
• 1:43:46
  Speaker 2: back with the little lion cub in it is obviously
• 1:43:50
  Speaker 2: an homage to Toto being in the bicycle basket. Then
• 1:43:55
  Speaker 2: we have the ruby slippers. What else do we got?
• 1:44:00
  Speaker 3: I mean, just the text that says wicked.
• 1:44:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, totally good call. And when facing the Wizard's animatronic
• 1:44:08
  Speaker 2: massive head, Alphaba is scared and begins to turn and
• 1:44:11
  Speaker 2: run the exact same way that the cowardly Lion does
• 1:44:14
  Speaker 2: in the original. So that was really fun. Oh yeah,
• 1:44:17
  Speaker 2: so that was all the ones I had. There was
• 1:44:19
  Speaker 2: a lot, rob did you have any that I didn't say?
• 1:44:23
  Speaker 3: Just people that were up for other roles I saw
• 1:44:27
  Speaker 3: the Amanda Seyfried was actively pursuing the role of Glinda.
• 1:44:31
  Speaker 3: That's pretty wild and she took voice lessons to prepare.
• 1:44:37
  Speaker 3: But yeah, that didn't work out. Lady Gaga was offered
• 1:44:42
  Speaker 3: the role of Alphaba. Wow, she decided to turn it
• 1:44:46
  Speaker 3: down and play Harley Quinn and Joker fully adieu.
• 1:44:50
  Speaker 2: Gross what a choice.
• 1:44:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it didn't work out apparently. Sabrina Carpenter audition twice oh,
• 1:45:01
  Speaker 3: and said that she was physically flawless and very charismatic performer,
• 1:45:07
  Speaker 3: she didn't have the vocal range required for the role.
• 1:45:12
  Speaker 3: Renee Rapp auditioned as well.
• 1:45:15
  Speaker 2: That makes sense.
• 1:45:17
  Speaker 3: And I'm sure there were a lot, but those were
• 1:45:19
  Speaker 3: the ones that I kind of picked out, and for Fierro,
• 1:45:23
  Speaker 3: I saw that Nick Jonas, Joe Jonas, Spencer Sutherland, and
• 1:45:26
  Speaker 3: Ryan McCartin all auditioned. Mccarton portrayed Fierro in the fifteenth
• 1:45:31
  Speaker 3: anniversary cast of Wicked at the Gershwin Theater.
• 1:45:34
  Speaker 2: Ah, lovely, that's cool. That's all I got.
• 1:45:38
  Speaker 5: I'm glad the roles went to.
• 1:45:40
  Speaker 3: Who they went to.
• 1:45:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I hear you, Sam. Did we say any
• 1:45:47
  Speaker 2: other trivia that you have that you need to get
• 1:45:50
  Speaker 2: out or anything? Yeah?
• 1:45:51
  Speaker 5: I got.
• 1:45:52
  Speaker 3: I got a few nice I got.
• 1:45:56
  Speaker 5: In keeping with the like Wizard of Oz homages in
• 1:45:59
  Speaker 5: Wizard And when she's running on that like wheat field
• 1:46:04
  Speaker 5: that goes to the cliff, she is like so excited,
• 1:46:09
  Speaker 5: which I also we don't get to see a lot
• 1:46:11
  Speaker 5: of alpha, but joy, that's why Wizard of Ice, Wizard
• 1:46:17
  Speaker 5: and I so nice to watch. But she's like so
• 1:46:19
  Speaker 5: excited and gets lifted up into the air and then
• 1:46:22
  Speaker 5: when she comes down, a bunch of bluebirds fly like
• 1:46:24
  Speaker 5: she like they were in the west And there's a
• 1:46:31
  Speaker 5: wide shot when she's jumping. I think there's a rainbow.
• 1:46:33
  Speaker 5: There's a rainbow somewhere in that sect, which I love. Also,
• 1:46:39
  Speaker 5: this is just like this is from the musical that
• 1:46:43
  Speaker 5: I did not know until I watched a video of
• 1:46:45
  Speaker 5: Stephen Schwartz explaining it that I'm not going to sing
• 1:46:49
  Speaker 5: it but unlimited.
• 1:46:51
  Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, that's crazy. I heard this too.
• 1:46:53
  Speaker 5: I say it unlimited My future is like those notes
• 1:46:57
  Speaker 5: are the same notes as Somewhere over the Rainbow, and
• 1:47:00
  Speaker 5: it's it's crazy because I've tried so many times as
• 1:47:03
  Speaker 5: I'm listening to sing Somewhere over the Rainbow, but it
• 1:47:06
  Speaker 5: sounds so different even though they are the same exact notes.
• 1:47:09
  Speaker 5: I guess it's because of like I don't know the
• 1:47:11
  Speaker 5: chords underneath it or something. I'm not sure, but yeah,
• 1:47:15
  Speaker 5: he was like, I kind of you're not gonna immediately,
• 1:47:20
  Speaker 5: especially if you're not musically trained. Notice that that's those
• 1:47:22
  Speaker 5: are the same notes because it sounds so different. But
• 1:47:25
  Speaker 5: I was hoping to infuse a little bit of like
• 1:47:27
  Speaker 5: a like a spark of something with those.
• 1:47:31
  Speaker 1: I just love that.
• 1:47:32
  Speaker 5: I love attention to detail when people are writing like that.
• 1:47:37
  Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I know, I have a Oh the flower
• 1:47:43
  Speaker 5: that Fierro puts in Ari in her hair during the
• 1:47:49
  Speaker 5: Dancing through Life sequence. She that's the one that she
• 1:47:52
  Speaker 5: puts on Alphaba at the end of Popular, which is
• 1:47:58
  Speaker 5: also like like the symbolism under there feels like about
• 1:48:04
  Speaker 5: the love that exists between the three of them, Like
• 1:48:07
  Speaker 5: he gives that to her when they're like lusting over
• 1:48:10
  Speaker 5: each other, but she gives out to her when she
• 1:48:13
  Speaker 5: falls in love with her best friend. And so there's
• 1:48:15
  Speaker 5: a lot of like symbolism of the love in that movie.
• 1:48:20
  Speaker 5: Passed through that flower. Oh my gosh, I know, I
• 1:48:26
  Speaker 5: know there is more, but I think that's all I have.
• 1:48:29
  Speaker 5: Like Fresh on the Dome said.
• 1:48:32
  Speaker 2: The unlimited thing because I was I was meaning to
• 1:48:35
  Speaker 2: bring that up, and I so good.
• 1:48:37
  Speaker 3: Call Josh Minta.
• 1:48:40
  Speaker 2: Will there be a sequel?
