- 0:44Speaker 1: welcome to Thirsty for Goran. My name is Goran. You
- 0:52Speaker 1: know what we should maybe do? What?
- 0:57Speaker 2: We should maybe call it Thirsty for Child's Play, and
- 1:01Speaker 2: then once we.
- 1:02Speaker 1: Get to Bride of Chucky, we start calling it Thirsty
- 1:07Speaker 1: for Chucky. I already called it Thirsty for Chucky. That's fine.
- 1:10Speaker 1: I released it on the first episode already on Patreon,
- 1:13Speaker 1: so it immortalizes Thirsty for Chucky. Just like this eyeball
- 1:18Speaker 1: is immortalized when the fucking first shot opens, and we
- 1:22Speaker 1: get an interest cut with this fucking limousine coming towards...
- 1:26Speaker 1: The Chucky Factory, dude.
- 1:28Speaker 2: The Chucky Factory, dude.
- 1:30Speaker 1: Not just the Chucky Factory, but the weird corporate malfeasance. Okay,
- 1:36Speaker 1: we're going to talk about the weird corporate malfeasance, but
- 1:38Speaker 1: first we need to talk about the, like, retconned, anatomically
- 1:43Speaker 1: updated Child's Play 2. First we say we're doing 1990s
- 1:48Speaker 1: Child's Play 2. Who's it directed by? Do we care
- 1:53Speaker 1: about these directors? Not really. Not with a lot of enjoyment.
- 1:57Speaker 1: But who is it directed by? Do you know? Let
- 1:58Speaker 1: me just check.
- 2:02Speaker 2: No, we do care about the directors because... What's his name?
- 2:07Speaker 2: The guy who, like, kind of.
- 2:11Speaker 1: Don Mancini, the guy who wrote the Chucky movies. Oh, yeah,
- 2:15Speaker 1: Don Mancini. I noticed his name.
- 2:16Speaker 2: We got to mention him because he's very much the, like.
- 2:21Speaker 1: pusher of all.
- 2:23Speaker 2: Of the movies okay okay and like is the like
- 2:26Speaker 2: kind of guiding force behind some of the outrageous and
- 2:30Speaker 2: weird choices he leaned into it like Robert.
- 2:32Speaker 1: England leaned into being Freddy you know what I mean
- 2:35Speaker 1: like it's like He created the show, he created.
- 2:38Speaker 2: Can we.
- 2:39Speaker 1: Just say, okay, so what came first here, the chicken
- 2:43Speaker 1: or the egg? Because obviously the Chucky design is retconned
- 2:47Speaker 1: to have a photorealistic, like, digestive tract of, like, real
- 2:54Speaker 1: tongue and human teeth. Yeah, like, gross human teeth. And also... Okay,
- 3:02Speaker 1: in this one, there's less of a difference between toy
- 3:06Speaker 1: Chucky face and angry Chucky face.
- 3:11Speaker 2: Well, yeah, because there is now just a level of.
- 3:17Speaker 2: They still have the original Good Guy doll in there.
- 3:20Speaker 1: But the original also, as Tommy, has the now updated
- 3:25Speaker 1: retconned Chucky face, though. It's the second generation of Chucky dolls, dude.
- 3:31Speaker 1: Two years have passed. They want their market share to grow.
- 3:37Speaker 1: They want their corporate Melfi's and Chucky Doll revenues.
- 3:42Speaker 2: They want their Grace Zabriskie revenues and their Beth Grant's revenues.
- 3:45Speaker 1: Oh my god, dude. Two of the best middle-aged actresses
- 3:49Speaker 1: in the world.
- 3:50Speaker 2: The forever middle-aged actresses.
- 3:52Speaker 1: Written by Don Mancini. And opens right away with this
- 3:57Speaker 1: corporate-ass fucking ass-lickerer Like a guy from Ally McBeal. Did
- 4:03Speaker 1: you know the guy from Ally McBeal, dude? Yeah, I do.
- 4:06Speaker 2: I don't know if that's the same guy, though.
- 4:07Speaker 1: It is the same guy. Is it? Yeah. Did you
- 4:08Speaker 1: look it up? Yeah. Oh, awesome. I didn't need to
- 4:11Speaker 1: look it up. I know this guy. I mean. Look
- 4:14Speaker 1: it up right now. Ally McBeal, dude. What a name.
- 4:17Speaker 1: That was like a big hit. I used to love
- 4:20Speaker 1: that show. I used to love Dancing Baby, dude. It's
- 4:22Speaker 1: a dancey chucky, dude. This, like, Cohegan-type guy.
- 4:28Speaker 2: Yes, it is very Robocop. It is very, like, Verhoeven.
- 4:34Speaker 1: Greg German. What a name. I think I know a
- 4:39Speaker 1: relative of his. Eric German? Yeah, Mattson. Chucky, too. I
- 4:48Speaker 1: was right? Yeah.
- 4:49Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, it just, it feels like this.
- 4:52Speaker 1: Is a world in where... It's completely okay. All of
- 4:56Speaker 1: the stuff that I mentioned in the first one that
- 4:58Speaker 1: we talked about in the first one, being very, very
- 5:02Speaker 1: open to stretching the logic of reality and making it
- 5:07Speaker 1: very real. I loved it, dude. And you know what? Honestly,
- 5:11Speaker 1: it deep dives into... the feeling of the first one
- 5:16Speaker 1: so much the movement of the first one so much
- 5:19Speaker 1: it kind of forgoes all of the reality of the
- 5:21Speaker 1: first one yes and goes into the magical reality of
- 5:24Speaker 1: the first one.
- 5:25Speaker 2: Completely yeah it leans way harder into the the reality
- 5:29Speaker 2: of because like it does a good job storytelling wise
- 5:33Speaker 2: explaining the kind of grandiosity of the toy like the
- 5:38Speaker 2: sellability of the toy is America ever going to have
- 5:42Speaker 2: a factory?
- 5:43Speaker 1: Honestly, I was like manufacturing in America. I was like, what?
- 5:47Speaker 1: That's the real fantasy of this movie is that there's
- 5:50Speaker 1: actual distribution. The Chucky's weren't produced in China. Yeah. Making
- 5:55Speaker 1: the toy, distributing the toy, packaging the toy. Our biggest
- 5:59Speaker 1: local manufacturer, Chucky. We love Chucky.
- 6:03Speaker 2: The good guy doll, please.
- 6:06Speaker 1: Well, Trump would call it Chucky. That's true. He definitely would. Yeah.
- 6:10Speaker 2: But like immediately the killer good guy doll story was
- 6:14Speaker 2: quashed by the police. They denied everything.
- 6:17Speaker 1: Just like throw away after throw away lines. No, it
- 6:21Speaker 1: was great, dude. Because like it kind of ties up
- 6:24Speaker 1: with a bow. Like he was the hero, but also
- 6:27Speaker 1: you could tell in the movie now knowing that line,
- 6:32Speaker 1: my brain retcons it that He was actually just trying
- 6:36Speaker 1: to crack the case the whole time. And he was
- 6:38Speaker 1: using the family. And he didn't care about them after
- 6:40Speaker 1: the Chucky fiasco was done. Who? The guy? Fucking... Mike?
- 6:45Speaker 1: Mike Norris? Yeah, dude. I think he was a fucking...
- 6:49Speaker 1: I think this reality turns him into a fucking dick. What?
- 6:55Speaker 1: An opportunistic dick that just wanted to get Charles Lee Ray. No,
- 6:59Speaker 1: because he didn't know the doll was Charles Lee Ray. No,
- 7:04Speaker 1: but there was a magical knowing to him. There was
- 7:07Speaker 1: beats that he knew that it was Chucky. Well, kind of,
- 7:10Speaker 1: because he killed him in the toy store. But, like,
- 7:14Speaker 1: the police, quote-unquote, denied everything. It's not like he denied everything. Well,
- 7:18Speaker 1: because he, no, I, well, who was the police in
- 7:21Speaker 1: this situation? Well, it's the organization. No, but they were
- 7:24Speaker 1: the two eyewitnesses there. Who's going to believe us? That
- 7:28Speaker 1: was the end of the movie.
- 7:30Speaker 2: Well, yeah, who is going to believe a killer doll?
- 7:32Speaker 2: And the police are already embarrassed enough, right?
- 7:35Speaker 1: The police as an institution can't deny. Yeah, they denied
- 7:38Speaker 1: it officially, but these guys had to deny it first.
- 7:41Speaker 1: The mother stuck to the story. They say that the
- 7:44Speaker 1: mother was smart, that they were smart. And the mother
- 7:48Speaker 1: was dumb for not sticking to the story. Well... Or
- 7:51Speaker 1: for sticking to the story with the kid.
- 7:52Speaker 2: The mother backed up her boy's story in court, and
- 7:56Speaker 2: now she's under psychiatric observation.
- 7:59Speaker 1: I mean, of course!
- 8:00Speaker 2: You'd be like, oh, a killer doll?
- 8:02Speaker 1: She tried to blow the Chucky Datas at her, dude. Yeah, exactly.
- 8:06Speaker 1: She's Sarah Connor. And that, actually, element of this movie
- 8:10Speaker 1: kind of made it seem Terminator-esque. Yeah, it feels... Even
- 8:15Speaker 1: though this is pre-Terminator. This feels more like... Well, it's post-Terminator.
- 8:20Speaker 1: Terminator 2 is the one that it feels like.
- 8:23Speaker 2: Well, it kind of feels like Robocop to me a
- 8:26Speaker 2: little bit.
- 8:26Speaker 1: It does feel like Robocop, yeah.
- 8:27Speaker 2: It's supposed to be way funnier. It's supposed to be
- 8:31Speaker 2: a little bit more like... less grounded and more funny
- 8:36Speaker 2: and more like satire, like proving a point of some kind. Um,
- 8:42Speaker 2: but also when the, the like Cohagen boss is like, well,
- 8:47Speaker 2: he's got such a great line. He's like, my stomach hurts, Madsen.
- 8:51Speaker 1: I love that line. I love my stomach hurts. That
- 8:53Speaker 1: was great. Is this what you call good news? Well,
- 8:55Speaker 1: can I... No, I'm getting to that. Can we just
- 8:57Speaker 1: say what the amazing, like, look of the, like, Chucky's
- 9:02Speaker 1: skull being polished? Yeah. And the, like, gross photorealistic teeth
- 9:07Speaker 1: and mouth. Like, human... Just, like, looks like... I always
- 9:12Speaker 1: thought it looked so good. Yeah, definitely. The doll always
- 9:15Speaker 1: looks good. And also, just... the magic in the movie
- 9:21Speaker 1: is way more prominent. Well, because, like, as soon as they, like,
- 9:24Speaker 1: shove the eyeballs in with the eyeball poking machine, it
- 9:29Speaker 1: fucking stabs the eyeballs. First it, like, jams, because Chucky's
- 9:34Speaker 1: scared of having eyeballs shoved into his skull. And then the...
- 9:38Speaker 1: technician he's like hold on we're not used to making
- 9:41Speaker 1: these by hand i like that was so like it
- 9:44Speaker 1: was so outrageous to like appease the shareholders to recreate
- 9:50Speaker 1: to rebuild the original chucky doll to prove it doesn't
- 9:55Speaker 1: make it makes no sense in no world does it
- 9:58Speaker 1: make sense No. Until this world where the electroshock of
- 10:05Speaker 1: magic Chucky... Well, and, like, the thing is, like, it immediately... Like,
- 10:09Speaker 1: it doesn't allow you to think about it for too
- 10:11Speaker 1: long because... No, not at all.
- 10:12Speaker 2: Because you get the first death.
- 10:14Speaker 1: Chucky electrocuting fucking this technician who... is, like, patting the
- 10:19Speaker 1: machine for working. He's happy that it worked at shoving
- 10:23Speaker 1: in the eyeballs. And then it turns out, red Terminator lightning, dude.
- 10:27Speaker 1: And he's like... This movie loves... Chucky loves electrocution, dude.
- 10:31Speaker 2: Yes.
- 10:32Speaker 1: It's the second time Chucky has electrocuted someone. Yes, absolutely.
- 10:36Speaker 1: And it's like....
- 10:39Speaker 2: It's actually not red Terminator lightning, it's red eyeballs that
- 10:43Speaker 2: shoot lightning out of it. And then he's red, like,
- 10:46Speaker 2: he's electroshocked.
- 10:47Speaker 1: And then he's blood, dude. Yeah, he's blood. Blood starts.
- 10:50Speaker 1: He gets, like, also, like, for some reason... I guess
- 10:54Speaker 1: this is another example of Chucky, like... electromagnetic pulsing a body, like,
- 10:59Speaker 1: he's shooting it, catapulting it into the glass, and he
- 11:03Speaker 1: breaks through, and the guy's like, ah, Jesus Christ, I
- 11:06Speaker 1: don't want to hear, I want this all fucking cleaned up. Mattson,
- 11:08Speaker 1: what are you doing? You fucking loser. Lick my ass.
- 11:13Speaker 1: Jesus Christ, dude.
- 11:15Speaker 2: Then we cut to Alex Vincent, who is amazing in
- 11:19Speaker 2: this as Andy as well.
- 11:20Speaker 1: And this is George Costanza slash, like, Robert Richard Dreyfuss
- 11:23Speaker 1: looking guy.
- 11:24Speaker 2: It's, it's... This is so just like, well, how do
- 11:30Speaker 2: we repeat what happened in the first movie? And you
- 11:34Speaker 2: don't ever actually even need to watch the first movie. Yeah,
- 11:37Speaker 2: it's just like dialogue dumps.
- 11:40Speaker 1: And we get our introduction of an exponentially more sentient Andy.
- 11:48Speaker 1: yeah who's not anymore i saw this one he's less
- 11:53Speaker 1: i saw this one he's like his name was charles
- 11:56Speaker 1: lee he got that kid thing the smart actor kid
- 12:00Speaker 1: thing where he's talking but but but it's believable because
- 12:04Speaker 1: it's the trajectory of him having to mature and look
- 12:07Speaker 1: after himself absolutely yeah and i think that andy's story
- 12:12Speaker 1: arc is an underlooked horror story arc dude Because Andy, like...
- 12:18Speaker 1: Is the Ellen Ripley of... Totally.
- 12:21Speaker 2: Because it's about him.
- 12:23Speaker 1: It's true. All three are about him. It's true. The
- 12:26Speaker 1: real ones. The real ones. And, well... We'll see. We'll see.
- 12:30Speaker 1: We'll see. But, yeah. Before Chucky becomes something else, Chucky
- 12:36Speaker 1: is Andy. Chucky is Child's Play. And Child's Play is Andy. Yes.
- 12:39Speaker 1: And Andy... And that's actually what it is. They're different franchises.
- 12:44Speaker 2: They are different franchises. It's almost like watching a Freddy
- 12:49Speaker 2: spinoff of the Nightmare on Elm Street movies. Because it's
- 12:53Speaker 2: like all the Nightmare on Elm Street movies have that core,
- 12:57Speaker 2: we have to go back to the first one, link
- 12:59Speaker 2: to it. Whereas this one very much feels like... bride
- 13:04Speaker 2: of Chucky is like, Oh yeah, this is about Chucky
- 13:08Speaker 2: and his story.
- 13:10Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 13:10Speaker 2: Like his backstory too, for some reason.
- 13:14Speaker 1: Which is interesting and we'll get to, but right now
- 13:17Speaker 1: we were like all in on Andy. Right. Um, and
- 13:21Speaker 1: Andy is like, you know, he's playing this like social
- 13:24Speaker 1: game with the doctor of cards, but the doctor is
- 13:28Speaker 1: asking him to retell the events of the first movie. Yeah. And,
- 13:32Speaker 1: and he's like, those dreams are really scary, aren't they, Andy?
- 13:35Speaker 2: And he does that, that smile that kids do where
- 13:39Speaker 2: they're like, they're wanting to be reassuring, but behind the eyes,
- 13:45Speaker 2: you're like, oh man.
- 13:47Speaker 1: And it's actually such a signature Andy smile too, because
- 13:50Speaker 1: he does, it's reminiscent of like the more innocent Andy
- 13:54Speaker 1: of the first movie, but we know what Andy has
- 13:57Speaker 1: been through. So like, there's a kind of like weightiness
- 14:00Speaker 1: behind it. And like, Man, he's such a good actor, dude.
- 14:04Speaker 2: He's really, really good.
- 14:06Speaker 1: One of the lines that the boss, the Cohagen boss,
- 14:12Speaker 1: gives to Mattson right after that scene is... He says....
- 14:20Speaker 2: You smuggle this error out in 24 hours.
- 14:25Speaker 1: You smuggle this error out in 24 hours. Corporate speak,
- 14:29Speaker 1: dead guy. It's funny how, like, I think, like, reality
- 14:33Speaker 1: revealed itself to be just as sinister as, like, these
- 14:37Speaker 1: cartoonishly portrayed corporations. Fuck you and your corporation. Yeah, it's like.
- 14:42Speaker 2: Ah, and then, and then, um, what do you want
- 14:45Speaker 2: me to do with the doll?
- 14:46Speaker 1: Shove it up your ass! And he does. He takes
- 14:49Speaker 1: the doll in order to shove it up his ass later. Absolutely.
- 14:53Speaker 2: And then, Grace Zabriskie is introduced in the most... normal
- 14:58Speaker 2: no changed voice just normal grace of risky named grace
- 15:03Speaker 2: pool by the way the.
- 15:05Speaker 1: Most accurate depiction of real life grace of risky not
- 15:09Speaker 1: david lynch be outrageous traumatized from your daughter's death be
- 15:13Speaker 1: normal grace of risky and she is she kind of
- 15:17Speaker 1: like doesn't give a fuck Dude, can I just say
- 15:20Speaker 1: the scene before where Chucky's, like, before the shove it
- 15:23Speaker 1: up your ass, he's kind of, like, looking off into
- 15:26Speaker 1: the distance. He's got, like, he's always got way more
- 15:29Speaker 1: personality in this one than in the first one. In
- 15:32Speaker 1: the first one, he's just, like, there's, like, a kind of, like,
- 15:36Speaker 1: you know they've made him, like, more human-like? Anyway. Oh,
- 15:40Speaker 1: like the doll? Yeah. Oh, okay. They've made him, like,
- 15:43Speaker 1: from the start, less of a difference. And he's just
- 15:46Speaker 1: always got.
- 15:47Speaker 2: Personality in his face. Oh, yeah, he's, like, the cheeks
- 15:50Speaker 2: are a little bit down. It's not flat.
- 15:53Speaker 1: He's more expressive. He's not as glossy, too. He's more matte.
- 15:58Speaker 2: Yeah, he's definitely, like, a lot more Charles Lee reified.
- 16:03Speaker 1: Yeah. Yes, definitely. There's some return to balding here, but
- 16:07Speaker 1: different kind of Zali's look. We'll talk about that. But
- 16:12Speaker 1: Grace Zabriskie is amazing as this like kind of it
- 16:17Speaker 1: feels like it feels like she does care. but she's
- 16:22Speaker 1: so detached from it. It actually feels kind of like
- 16:25Speaker 1: a realistic portrayal of the type of social worker that
- 16:30Speaker 1: can exist.
- 16:30Speaker 2: 100%.
- 16:32Speaker 1: They've done it for so long that there's a kind
- 16:34Speaker 1: of detached cynicism that comes with just seeing this type
- 16:38Speaker 1: of thing all of the time.
- 16:40Speaker 2: Naturally, he was traumatized by the murders, but kids bounce back.
- 16:44Speaker 1: Children are strong. They're resilient. They're designed to survive. When
- 16:48Speaker 1: you drop them, they tend to bounce. Yeah, exactly. And
- 16:52Speaker 1: what she's saying there is she's seen kids bounce back
- 16:55Speaker 1: easily because kids are resilient, but she's not really dealing
- 16:59Speaker 1: with the underlying trauma. She's just kind of like getting
- 17:02Speaker 1: a job done, like placing kids where they have to go.
- 17:05Speaker 2: Well, that's the interesting thing, too, about the whole situation,
- 17:08Speaker 2: because Phil and Joanne, who are going to adopt or foster.
- 17:12Speaker 1: Oh, my God, dude. Such... compelling characters, both of them.
- 17:16Speaker 1: They're so compelling, and I realized why. Because as a kid,
- 17:19Speaker 1: they seemed so much more evil. Yeah.
- 17:22Speaker 2: But as an adult, you're like, well, you know, I mean,
- 17:25Speaker 2: some of these concerns are.
- 17:27Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Well, I know, but he's
- 17:29Speaker 1: such a piece of shit. He is such a piece
- 17:32Speaker 1: of shit, dude. It's written in a way that his
- 17:36Speaker 1: reactions are often not justified enough No, never justify. Why
- 17:43Speaker 1: do you hate this kid? He hates him, dude. He's, well,
- 17:48Speaker 1: I get you. And not like he never likes him.
- 17:50Speaker 1: He seems to act normal enough. Yeah, the first thing
- 17:54Speaker 1: he says is he seems to act normal enough. And
- 17:56Speaker 1: then I think that's to make it seem like she
- 18:00Speaker 1: is more, what's her name? Joanne. Joanne is more desperate
- 18:05Speaker 1: to like have a kid. And we get only hints.
- 18:12Speaker 1: It does what the first movie does of just showing us,
- 18:15Speaker 1: not hamming it up, but like, who are you going
- 18:18Speaker 1: to pass it down to? And she just gets quiet
- 18:20Speaker 1: and sad.
- 18:21Speaker 2: Yeah, totally.
- 18:21Speaker 1: And he gets like solemnly comforting. Yeah. And we get
- 18:25Speaker 1: a sense that like, you know, okay, they have a past.
- 18:29Speaker 1: The reason they're foster parents is because she's always wanted
- 18:32Speaker 1: to be a parent. He doesn't really care and never
- 18:35Speaker 1: really has, but like loves his wife and wants to
- 18:38Speaker 1: support his wife. And goes along with it, I guess.
- 18:41Speaker 1: But begrudgingly so. And you really get fleshed out characters
- 18:46Speaker 1: from just their actions.
- 18:48Speaker 2: Well, yeah, and she's like... Grace Zabriskie is like.
- 18:53Speaker 1: He thinks a doll was possessed by Charles Lee Ray. Who?
- 18:57Speaker 2: A murderer who strangled 12 people.
- 19:01Speaker 1: No, the Lakeshore Killer, dude. Lakeshore Strangler. Lakeshore, dude. oh
- 19:06Speaker 1: yeah city by the lake the tobiko canonically canonically city
- 19:10Speaker 1: by the lake dude um it's it could be toronto
- 19:16Speaker 1: and andy could be us dude um they're taking him
- 19:19Speaker 1: home and she he's like Do we need any kind
- 19:24Speaker 1: of special qualifications for this? Nah, he's fine. Just take him.
- 19:27Speaker 1: And then they're immediately taking him.
- 19:29Speaker 2: Yeah, it's, again, it's that kind of expedited story. Because
- 19:34Speaker 2: it's like the rooms are side by side with a
- 19:37Speaker 2: piece of glass where they're looking at Andy getting interviewed.
- 19:40Speaker 2: In this fucking weird institution. Yeah, like, what is it?
- 19:44Speaker 1: It's like a weird orphanage. Yeah, it's a tube. glass
- 19:51Speaker 1: window orphanage, dude, where you look at the behavior of
- 19:54Speaker 1: someone to assess if you want to take that child
- 19:57Speaker 1: or not, dude. And Andy pulls out in the car.
- 20:01Speaker 1: Andy's in the backseat and pulls out a cell phone.
- 20:04Speaker 1: That's what I thought, dude. It looked so much like
- 20:07Speaker 1: he was like going to go on his iPad. But
- 20:10Speaker 1: what he was doing, dude, was looking at this like
- 20:14Speaker 1: fucking prehistoric 1700s block. That had like a, you know
- 20:21Speaker 1: those very first photographs that had to be printed on
- 20:24Speaker 1: some kind of plate? That's what he's looking at, dude. Yes,
- 20:27Speaker 1: that's what he's looking at.
- 20:28Speaker 2: But Phil almost drives into a Good Guy doll truck
- 20:31Speaker 2: from the Good Guy doll factory, dude.
- 20:33Speaker 1: It's called Play Pals toys. Yeah. Do you think that
- 20:37Speaker 1: PayPal stole that idea, dude? Do you think that, who
- 20:42Speaker 1: was it, Elon Musk was watching that and he was like, oh,
- 20:45Speaker 1: Play Pal. Oh, yeah, Play Pal. PayPal. Oh yeah. Anyway,
- 20:51Speaker 1: I don't know why he's Irish, but yeah. So he
- 20:55Speaker 1: almost crashes into the good guy doll. And like, I
- 20:57Speaker 1: love how every time Andy sees good guy in this beginning,
- 21:01Speaker 1: he goes absolutely catatonic. It's, it's amazing. And like, I
- 21:06Speaker 1: also thought to myself when I was watching this, like,
- 21:09Speaker 1: imagine having to like live in a world where you
- 21:14Speaker 1: are immersed in the thing that is traumatizing you most.
- 21:19Speaker 1: Like it must be like what being a victim of
- 21:22Speaker 1: Michael Jackson is like. It's like, you just like, you
- 21:24Speaker 1: go everywhere and it's like, baby belongs to me. You
- 21:27Speaker 1: know what? And you're just like, Jesus Christ. Well, yeah. In,
- 21:33Speaker 1: in part it's that, but also think about all the
- 21:36Speaker 1: things that kids experience in general, uh, as kids that
- 21:42Speaker 1: are really nice where it's like oh magic is real
- 21:45Speaker 1: and then you find out that magic is real and
- 21:47Speaker 1: it's like horrifying because it's it made a serial killer
- 21:50Speaker 1: go go into a doll and try and that's true
- 21:53Speaker 1: so it kind of robs you of like the like
- 21:55Speaker 1: like wonder of childhood yeah and and then as a
- 22:01Speaker 1: as a an evolving thing out of that like your
- 22:04Speaker 1: mom gets taken away and you have to go to
- 22:07Speaker 1: foster care you get punished for all of these things
- 22:10Speaker 1: that happened to you. Because it's not top of the
- 22:13Speaker 1: muffin to you. No, no, it is. That's another thing
- 22:18Speaker 1: is like, I love about this movie is like Andy
- 22:20Speaker 1: learning resilience. I mean, that's why he joined the army, dude. Well, okay. Well,
- 22:26Speaker 1: we'll get to that. Sorry. I'm grading ahead of myself,
- 22:27Speaker 1: but he goes into this kind of like, I like that, like,
- 22:30Speaker 1: they make it seem like these people, like, just had, like,
- 22:33Speaker 1: weird hobbies, and they're, like, because they're, like, a little
- 22:36Speaker 1: bit older, and they couldn't have the kids of their own, they, like,
- 22:41Speaker 1: they have this, like, kind of, like, gaudy, I don't know, like, just, like, fucking, like,
- 22:46Speaker 1: little statues and shit, and their house is very, like,
- 22:49Speaker 1: done up in, like, a specific kind of way, and they're, like, hey,
- 22:52Speaker 1: they're sports. we do things a little differently around. It's
- 22:56Speaker 1: like a restaurant that asks you that they do things
- 22:58Speaker 1: a little differently around here. And he's like, Hey sport,
- 23:01Speaker 1: we do things a little differently around here. We collect
- 23:03Speaker 1: these fucking things. I don't like them either. Okay. But
- 23:06Speaker 1: your mother, actually this fucking lady you've never seen Joanne,
- 23:10Speaker 1: she loves them. And, That means you're going to love him, too.
- 23:13Speaker 1: You know what? I think you're being way too hard.
- 23:16Speaker 2: I used to hate these people, too.
- 23:17Speaker 1: But when I watched the movie, it's clear they've had
- 23:21Speaker 1: multiple kids go through here.
- 23:23Speaker 2: And they're nice. They're not taking advantage or anything. No,
- 23:26Speaker 2: I'm totally Andy's POV, dude. I'm like, fuck those people.
- 23:29Speaker 1: I don't even think Andy hates them. I'm so happy
- 23:31Speaker 1: when that guy gets killed. I don't think Andy hates them. Well,
- 23:34Speaker 1: then I'm somebody else in the movie, dude. I don't
- 23:36Speaker 1: like them. Kyle. You're Kyle. Hello, Kyle. Hello. I am Kyle, dude. Well,
- 23:41Speaker 1: what brings you to Sacred Fellowship, Kyle? Kyle doesn't even
- 23:44Speaker 1: seem to hate them, either. No, she kind of likes them, actually.
- 23:48Speaker 1: He's not so bad. The other ones molested me. No,
- 23:54Speaker 1: it is very, like... I do understand, though, from a
- 23:57Speaker 1: kid's perspective, having, like... immediately.
- 24:00Speaker 2: Rules imposed on you in this kind of condescending way
- 24:03Speaker 2: is like um but it gives the opportunity to to
- 24:08Speaker 2: give the question of like uh uh don't touch those
- 24:11Speaker 2: and she's like In my generation.
- 24:12Speaker 1: It's been in my family for three generations. In my dreams.
- 24:15Speaker 2: Who are you going to give it to?
- 24:17Speaker 1: And she's sad. She gets quiet. Yeah, and it's, like,
- 24:22Speaker 1: not that great a statue. It kind of looks like
- 24:24Speaker 1: anything you could buy from, like, the dollar store, literally. Like,
- 24:29Speaker 1: I'm like, this is not an heirloom, dude. It's not.
- 24:32Speaker 1: It seems really cheap. And poorly done, too.
- 24:35Speaker 2: Like, even here, when we're first meeting Kyle.
- 24:39Speaker 1: Kyle. And Andy knocks on the door. He doesn't. He
- 24:44Speaker 1: opens the door and she's like... Don't you fucking knock... No,
- 24:46Speaker 1: she's actually really nice. She's smoking. She's smoking in her room.
- 24:49Speaker 2: But then Joanna's like... Oh, Phil is going to kill
- 24:54Speaker 2: you for smoking.
- 24:55Speaker 1: You know what I mean?
- 24:55Speaker 2: But she's not going to tell him, you know what
- 24:57Speaker 2: I mean? Like there seems like a dynamic.
- 24:59Speaker 1: That's like, I noticed that. I noticed that. And I
- 25:01Speaker 1: liked it. I liked that. She seems way more like
- 25:04Speaker 1: favorable to the kids. I think she's way more a
- 25:07Speaker 1: sympathetic character in the movie. And I think she's genuinely
- 25:10Speaker 1: like a good person. I think she's actually very realistically portrayed.
- 25:15Speaker 1: I do think that, like, Phil's reactions were cartoonish. They're like,
- 25:19Speaker 1: I don't know about this fucking kid. I guess I'll
- 25:21Speaker 1: get used to him.
- 25:22Speaker 2: Well, like, the thing is, like, it's like a feeling,
- 25:25Speaker 2: you know? And it's, like, unexplainable. Not to justify the behavior.
- 25:28Speaker 2: I know what you mean. He is, like, it's like... Whoa,
- 25:30Speaker 2: he's trying to show the feeling.
- 25:32Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's like... And immediately, Kyle closes the door
- 25:36Speaker 1: after they leave, and she, like, puts out the cigarette,
- 25:39Speaker 1: then gets another cigarette. She's so cool, dude. And like
- 25:42Speaker 1: this outfit she's wearing is incredible. She looks like she
- 25:46Speaker 1: listens to that kind of rap. And also she's wearing
- 25:53Speaker 1: like a leather daddy hat and like this cool sweater
- 25:58Speaker 1: tucked in with a black belt and like these like
- 26:02Speaker 1: a cut of jeans that anyone in West End, Toronto
- 26:06Speaker 1: would like absolutely murder their own grandmother for. I love
- 26:10Speaker 1: also the accessories, the long gold chain and the chain
- 26:15Speaker 1: on the hat. It's a very cool outfit. Yeah, you're right.
- 26:18Speaker 2: It's weird. It seems like a cool black guy would
- 26:23Speaker 2: wear this.
- 26:24Speaker 1: In the 80s. In the 80s, yeah. Totally. But I
- 26:27Speaker 1: also think she's the early nu metal dude. She listens
- 26:30Speaker 1: to rap and rock. When Walk This Way by Aerosmith
- 26:35Speaker 1: and Run DMC came out, she was like, Walk this way!
- 26:39Speaker 1: Talk this way! It's a little different than the original version.
- 26:45Speaker 1: It's more annoying. Not because of the Run DMC part,
- 26:49Speaker 1: exclusively because of the Aerosmith part. Um....
- 26:54Speaker 2: Andy gets taken to his room where she's like, the
- 26:58Speaker 2: curtains are blue, your favorite color.
- 27:00Speaker 1: And it's like, what? This line was so outrageous. I
- 27:02Speaker 1: actually really love that line. You want me to tell
- 27:04Speaker 1: you why? Tell me. Because she has an expectation and
- 27:07Speaker 1: an imagination of what being a mother is like. Yes.
- 27:10Speaker 1: And she's done up this room in a way that
- 27:13Speaker 1: is just seeing kids kind of cycled through. And that's
- 27:17Speaker 1: why she's like excited to tell him that there's more
- 27:19Speaker 1: toys in the closet.
- 27:20Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 27:21Speaker 1: And then... The more toys are... Hi, I'm Tommy.
- 27:25Speaker 2: Hi, I'm Tommy.
- 27:28Speaker 1: I love the pause, Tommy.
- 27:29Speaker 2: One of my favorite parts of the.
- 27:32Speaker 1: Hey, second rule sport. No running in the house. I
- 27:38Speaker 1: fucking hate you. Who is this guy? It turns a
- 27:40Speaker 1: little bit Gordon, but also a little bit... Jack Nicholson. No,
- 27:46Speaker 1: it felt a little bit Brad Dourif. Yeah. Because his new,
- 27:51Speaker 1: it's a different voice in this one slightly. It is.
- 27:54Speaker 1: It's a little bit more aggressive. I think it's easier
- 27:57Speaker 1: for him to do. Yeah. This voice. Yeah. I think
- 28:00Speaker 1: he knew he had to be more junky in this one. So,
- 28:04Speaker 1: oh man. And then this fucking loser. You're old man. Mr. Loser.
- 28:09Speaker 1: From Alleywick Squeal, who's like, takes the Chucky doll. He's following,
- 28:14Speaker 1: he's such a good ass licker that he is going
- 28:16Speaker 1: to shove the toy up his ass. And he takes
- 28:19Speaker 1: Chucky and he tries to put him in the back,
- 28:21Speaker 1: but he smashes it. There's always a, I have to
- 28:24Speaker 1: like aggressively handle this doll with the audience knowing that
- 28:29Speaker 1: it's a person. But let me ask you something. How
- 28:32Speaker 1: did Tommy's face get porcelain smashed? And Chucky's, I guess
- 28:36Speaker 1: because he's got metal titanium skulls. Yeah, that's true. Tommy's
- 28:41Speaker 1: face is like, he breaks it with that cheap fucking
- 28:44Speaker 1: heirloom that this mom makes a way too big a
- 28:47Speaker 1: deal of. Anyway, whatever. He's driving home. He calls someone.
- 28:52Speaker 1: He calls Gabrielle. Hey, Gabriella. On his car phone. The vodka?
- 28:56Speaker 1: He's going to get his dick wet, dude. Yeah, right.
- 28:58Speaker 1: He's having sex with undocumented workers, and he's then, like,
- 29:04Speaker 1: blackmailing them later on with their, like, nudes that they
- 29:07Speaker 1: sent him.
- 29:08Speaker 2: And Chucky is Chucky Face, real Chucky Face.
- 29:12Speaker 1: He's real Chucky Face in the back. It's not... and
- 29:15Speaker 1: he's like sinisterly looking man is mike powers would always
- 29:20Speaker 1: recreate junkie face in such a good way and i
- 29:22Speaker 1: always just remember every time i think about junkie face
- 29:26Speaker 1: making like outrageous faces i think about mike powers you
- 29:31Speaker 1: know it's also interesting um ali mcbeal stops at the
- 29:35Speaker 1: liquor store and he they do a couple of things
- 29:39Speaker 1: they used to do a couple of things in the 80s, 90s, 2000s, 2010s, whatever,
- 29:44Speaker 1: different versions of what a douchebag is. So like in
- 29:47Speaker 1: the 2010s, smoking a vape was a corporate guy– In
- 29:52Speaker 1: the 90s, or it's like in the early 2010s, like
- 29:57Speaker 1: talking on a Bluetooth thing was a douchebag thing. And
- 30:00Speaker 1: out loud in public. In the 80s and 90s, it
- 30:04Speaker 1: is beeping a car because it shows the status. And
- 30:08Speaker 1: using a car phone, of course. And using a car phone.
- 30:10Speaker 1: And being like, Gabrielle, oh, I forgot the vodka. Oh,
- 30:14Speaker 1: the vodka. Oh, of course, it's our two-week anniversary. I'm
- 30:17Speaker 1: taking advantage of you and blackmailing you with ice. Um, yeah.
- 30:22Speaker 1: So he goes to buy, he goes to a liquor
- 30:25Speaker 1: store and- And then Chucky sees the car phone. And
- 30:28Speaker 1: this certain guy is like, I can't sell this to you.
- 30:32Speaker 1: I want to, brother, but I can't sell it to you.
- 30:34Speaker 1: I'm going to lose my license. I'm going to lose
- 30:36Speaker 1: my license if you're going to, I can't do it.
- 30:38Speaker 2: But Chucky calls the orphanage.
- 30:43Speaker 1: And he's Uncle Chuck. Which, okay.
- 30:47Speaker 2: How does he know where Chucky is?
- 30:49Speaker 1: How does he know where Andy is?
- 30:53Speaker 2: How does he know where Andy went? It's not like they.
- 30:56Speaker 1: Well, this is what reminds me of Terminator 2. He
- 31:00Speaker 1: gets the information from the police car Bluetooth.
- 31:05Speaker 2: Oh, well, he gets the information from the corporate malfeasance
- 31:11Speaker 2: of tracking.
- 31:12Speaker 1: That's right. That's right. It's his Uncle Charles! Sorry, cash only.
- 31:20Speaker 2: That's a gold card? That's as good as cash.
- 31:22Speaker 1: What? Oh, man. And then when Chucky puts the gun
- 31:26Speaker 1: to his head, what does he say? Uh... Let me see.
- 31:38Speaker 1: Park over the... No, park this piece of shit! I
- 31:41Speaker 1: remember how he used to say, park this piece of shit!
- 31:45Speaker 1: I loved it, dude. Um.
- 31:48Speaker 2: He has really great, memorable lines. No question! Just drive! He's, like,
- 31:55Speaker 2: extending his... Keep going!
- 31:59Speaker 1: Yeah, he's really leaning into, like... He's being a cartoon,
- 32:02Speaker 1: and he's having a lot of fun with it. He's
- 32:04Speaker 1: having a lot of fun.
- 32:05Speaker 2: It's very... Freddy-y.
- 32:07Speaker 1: Yes. He gives it like so much personality and he's
- 32:12Speaker 1: like holding the gun to his head and he's like,
- 32:14Speaker 1: you can take my gold card. You can take anything.
- 32:17Speaker 1: I've got a gold card. You can fuck Gabrielle. I'm
- 32:20Speaker 1: blackmailing her. He's got him tied up with skip ropes
- 32:24Speaker 1: in the background. We notice like Chucky, like curved sneer nose.
- 32:29Speaker 1: You notice that like metal plate behind the Chucky Maz
- 32:33Speaker 1: turn to make the sneer. And it's so good looking, dude.
- 32:38Speaker 1: He looks so alive and he looks so uncanny and scary. And, like,
- 32:45Speaker 1: it's such incredible puppeteering. Already, part two, Glow Up Chucky, is, like,
- 32:51Speaker 1: ages beyond the first one.
- 32:53Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's pretty scary. It's pretty scary when he
- 32:56Speaker 2: puts the bag over his head.
- 32:57Speaker 1: That's the thing... That's the thing, like, however much movie,
- 33:03Speaker 1: however much Chucky feels PG in terms of plot, there's
- 33:09Speaker 1: so many things that happen that are, like, really terrifying.
- 33:13Speaker 1: And he's, like, him swearing in the way that he does, too,
- 33:16Speaker 1: is very adult and scary in a way that shouldn't
- 33:20Speaker 1: be shown to children. You know what I mean? Like,
- 33:22Speaker 1: now park this piece of shit. Yeah, totally. Oh, man.
- 33:26Speaker 1: And he fucking lakeshore strangles this guy. This Ally McBeal guy.
- 33:33Speaker 1: And I'm like, why did you do that? Now you
- 33:35Speaker 1: gotta walk through the rain?
- 33:37Speaker 2: Oh man, like gross puppet rain.
- 33:40Speaker 1: It would be awful. There's never any consequences of the
- 33:45Speaker 1: murders in this movie. The police never come. No one
- 33:49Speaker 1: ever follows up. Murder is as ubiquitous in this movie.
- 33:53Speaker 2: Honestly, it doesn't really matter at this point. The weight
- 33:58Speaker 2: of the movie seems to come from... Their relationship. And
- 34:03Speaker 2: the dynamic between them. Because we know everything. We're assumed
- 34:06Speaker 2: to have watched the first one.
- 34:08Speaker 1: Because nothing else matters.
- 34:12Speaker 2: Uncle Charles got the address from Grace Poole.
- 34:17Speaker 1: And Chucky's more human hand now. I also feel like
- 34:22Speaker 1: the act of making all of the good guy dolls
- 34:27Speaker 1: more Chucky looking... kind of gives the movie a little
- 34:35Speaker 1: bit more... There's still a difference between Sinister Chucky and
- 34:39Speaker 1: just the regular good guy doll, but it's less of
- 34:42Speaker 1: a difference. I'm sorry I keep harping on that, but
- 34:45Speaker 1: I think that's used well in this movie because there's
- 34:49Speaker 1: degrees of Chucky. We do get more of a merging
- 34:52Speaker 1: of soul and body in this in the sense of Chucky...
- 34:58Speaker 1: As much as he was getting real life in part one, he's, like,
- 35:01Speaker 1: really getting real life in this one.
- 35:03Speaker 2: Yeah, I will say that when it comes to that element,
- 35:08Speaker 2: I find it the most Final Destination-y, where it's, like,
- 35:13Speaker 2: a little bit inconsistent. I don't care as much, because
- 35:18Speaker 2: the performances and the way they go about lore in
- 35:23Speaker 2: this one is... They're totally okay with hand-waving certain things.
- 35:28Speaker 2: And there's a lot more consistency with who the character
- 35:31Speaker 2: is and he gets to evolve. So, like, the consistency
- 35:35Speaker 2: of the lore doesn't matter as much. With something like
- 35:38Speaker 2: Final Destination, it just has a problem with having such
- 35:41Speaker 2: an uncharismatic villain.
- 35:42Speaker 1: Yeah, nothing. Did nothing cancel? Yeah, I agree. I think
- 35:48Speaker 1: what you're reacting to is that they're using... the Chucky
- 35:52Speaker 1: embodiment as, like, a storytelling device rather than, like, offering
- 35:57Speaker 1: the audience any sort of, like, consistent experience of that. Yeah,
- 36:00Speaker 1: because it really makes no sense. Well, does anything else, though? Like,
- 36:04Speaker 1: he's been scraped and... like why did he come back
- 36:09Speaker 1: to like it just makes no like what okay so
- 36:11Speaker 1: he's the doll now but he couldn't go into another
- 36:14Speaker 1: it just like it makes no sense but it doesn't
- 36:16Speaker 1: matter and like but here we see chucky and tommy
- 36:20Speaker 1: chucky goes inside the the the house and he gets
- 36:25Speaker 1: face to face with tommy who we didn't say like
- 36:30Speaker 1: tommy falls off of the skateboard did we say that
- 36:33Speaker 1: part did we say that.
- 36:34Speaker 2: Yeah he finds the the no.
- 36:36Speaker 1: Running sport yeah and he's like don't worry i'm gonna
- 36:39Speaker 1: take chucky away but they always just like end up
- 36:41Speaker 1: leaving him they're kind of careless about that it's like
- 36:43Speaker 1: yo dude this kid is traumatized with this specific.
- 36:47Speaker 2: Doll yeah they just put him.
- 36:49Speaker 1: Downstairs and sit him creepily but obviously it's for the
- 36:53Speaker 1: story so that chucky comes and he's like shut the
- 36:56Speaker 1: fuck up.
- 36:58Speaker 2: Well, but before even that, I actually really like this
- 37:03Speaker 2: part with Joanne where she's reading Hansel and Gretel to
- 37:07Speaker 2: him and she's like, well, good night.
- 37:10Speaker 1: Hey, that's not the way the story ends. They live
- 37:12Speaker 1: happily ever after and he's like, that's not the way
- 37:14Speaker 1: the story ends. And she's like, we'll finish it tomorrow.
- 37:16Speaker 1: But the moment that he's like sad about like, I
- 37:20Speaker 1: don't get to. My mom used to sing to me. Yeah,
- 37:22Speaker 1: I don't get to. He's like, leveraging his little kidness more.
- 37:31Speaker 1: And I think he's like, he's genuinely scared, but he's
- 37:33Speaker 1: also like, he's like using that to be like, I
- 37:39Speaker 1: don't want to be alone. I need to be taken
- 37:40Speaker 1: care of. And maybe it's not even that conscious. He
- 37:43Speaker 1: is scared. He just wants her to be there. He's scared, yeah.
- 37:46Speaker 2: Oh, and like, she's like, don't worry, I'll stay as
- 37:48Speaker 2: long as you want. It's a very, like, to me,
- 37:50Speaker 2: it's like, cute. And yeah, Phil is a dick. But not, like,
- 37:55Speaker 2: the thing is, it's interesting, the thing that I was
- 37:58Speaker 2: saying earlier about the different eras showing a douchebag, like,
- 38:03Speaker 2: the further we get from this point, the more we
- 38:06Speaker 2: get people that there was like a period in the
- 38:09Speaker 2: 90s and 2000s where you were like, yeah i want
- 38:12Speaker 2: these characters get fucking killed whereas like if phil died
- 38:17Speaker 2: which he does you're like oh man like that's so
- 38:20Speaker 2: brutal yeah obviously you don't want him to die i
- 38:22Speaker 2: think that part actually just is the reminder that he's
- 38:25Speaker 2: human but um i like to be hugged i like
- 38:29Speaker 2: to be hugged i like shut up you idiot hug this.
- 38:33Speaker 1: And he takes the priceless heirloom and smashes his face
- 38:37Speaker 1: And his face breaks. You know how you can squeeze
- 38:42Speaker 1: a Skittle? Yes, totally! He gets Skittlehead. Like in Robocop 3,
- 38:48Speaker 1: he gets Skittlehead. I don't know if you've ever seen
- 38:50Speaker 1: that one. Of course. But yeah, I really love Skittleface.
- 38:54Speaker 1: And he buries Tommy in the backyard underneath the swing. Yeah!
- 39:00Speaker 1: And the next scene is opening up in the morning
- 39:03Speaker 1: where Phil throws the like broken statue on the table.
- 39:06Speaker 1: He's like, all right, who the fuck did this? You
- 39:11Speaker 1: pieces of shit. You're lucky to be here. You know,
- 39:14Speaker 1: you're lucky to be here. If Joanne wasn't here, you'd
- 39:16Speaker 1: be back at that. It'd be a different story. Let
- 39:19Speaker 1: me tell you. Making him a villain.
- 39:21Speaker 2: No, but he is like literally like.
- 39:23Speaker 1: He looks like the molester guy. He looks like the, like,
- 39:27Speaker 1: molesty actor. Who is this? He's also... He was also
- 39:32Speaker 1: bit in a bunch of stuff. He grounds both of them, though, because, like,
- 39:36Speaker 1: no one's fessing up. He's like, I didn't do it!
- 39:39Speaker 1: Chucky did it! He doesn't say that yet, but... It's
- 39:44Speaker 1: a long line of Chucky did it, and at a
- 39:47Speaker 1: certain point, even I don't believe him anymore. Even though
- 39:50Speaker 1: I know what's happened, I'm like, all right, kid, you've
- 39:53Speaker 1: used Chucky as an excuse for everything. You can't all
- 39:56Speaker 1: be Chucky. Sometimes we've got to grow up, all right?
- 39:59Speaker 2: Sometimes our parents did bad things to us, too.
- 40:03Speaker 1: We all have our Chucky's. Chucky's, don't we? Right, Dad?
- 40:11Speaker 1: We all have our fucking Chucky's, Andy. Now suck it up.
- 40:15Speaker 1: Life is cruel. You got meal. You got fucking roof
- 40:19Speaker 1: over your head. Now go do the laundry with this
- 40:21Speaker 1: cunt sister of yours. Kyle. Kyle. I love Kyle. Kyle.
- 40:26Speaker 2: Yeah, she's great. She's got good style.
- 40:28Speaker 1: Kyle. Kyle's got good style. Hey, you want me to
- 40:31Speaker 1: say your name backwards? Oh, I love that line. Turns
- 40:33Speaker 1: around and says... Kyle.
- 40:35Speaker 2: That was so cute. That felt very much like, oh yeah,
- 40:39Speaker 2: this is Andy from the first one.
- 40:42Speaker 1: Andy's got a lot of personality, dude. Yeah, totally.
- 40:44Speaker 2: And then she hands him the cigarette that she's smoking
- 40:48Speaker 2: and he smokes it because that's what I would do
- 40:50Speaker 2: in this era of 80s kid.
- 40:52Speaker 1: Dude, him smoking it is like such a surreal visual.
- 40:55Speaker 1: It was so surreal. What the hell are you doing?
- 40:58Speaker 1: I wanted to taste it. It tastes like shit, okay?
- 41:02Speaker 1: And it's really bad for you. But why do you
- 41:05Speaker 1: do it? Because sometimes grown-ups do things that are bad
- 41:07Speaker 1: for you. You're not a grown-up. Yeah. Great lines. And
- 41:12Speaker 1: then she's like, you're beginning to get on my nerves.
- 41:14Speaker 1: But she's like, in a way that's like... She's really
- 41:17Speaker 1: nice about it. She's so nice about it and it's
- 41:19Speaker 1: so fun. She's been through this. She's immediately imprinted on
- 41:22Speaker 1: this kid. And like, she's gone through the same thing
- 41:25Speaker 1: that he's gone through. But she's older and she's more jaded.
- 41:29Speaker 1: And like, you know, she tells him, hey, like, you know...
- 41:33Speaker 1: This is where, like, it's like you have to learn
- 41:34Speaker 1: how to rely on yourself. And it's, like, a really
- 41:37Speaker 1: important lesson that he should learn because he is going
- 41:40Speaker 1: to be in the system for the rest of his life, dude. Absolutely.
- 41:43Speaker 1: Andy doesn't have, like, a good, like, Chucky ruins his life.
- 41:48Speaker 2: Chucky fucking ruins his life. Andy coming up the stairs
- 41:52Speaker 2: from doing the laundry and then hearing Phil be like,
- 41:55Speaker 2: he's obviously hasn't come to terms with this doll thing.
- 41:58Speaker 2: You know what's... It is very... It's very Silverman coded.
- 42:02Speaker 1: It's so... It's exactly.
- 42:04Speaker 2: That's what it is.
- 42:04Speaker 1: It is exactly. And it's the same kind of like... He...
- 42:07Speaker 1: Silverman thinks he's being nice. We get the smarm because...
- 42:12Speaker 1: We're like, but the smarm is not unearned for him
- 42:15Speaker 1: as a character. Exactly. That's why, that's why it's, it's.
- 42:19Speaker 1: That's why you're going to bat for Phil, but I
- 42:21Speaker 1: still think. Like, it's like, the thing is. Okay.
- 42:26Speaker 2: Let's pull back on silverman silverman is very opportunistic i
- 42:30Speaker 2: could write a whole book on this kid you know
- 42:32Speaker 2: what i mean like it like it's a little bit
- 42:35Speaker 2: different for phil because he's like i don't want a
- 42:38Speaker 2: kid in my house that's going to disrupt maybe the
- 42:41Speaker 2: other kid that lives here you know what i mean
- 42:43Speaker 2: it feels like a little bit.
- 42:44Speaker 1: More you you get the sense that Phil has his
- 42:49Speaker 1: life and he likes his life and he doesn't want
- 42:53Speaker 1: any disruptions to it. And he views this kid as
- 42:56Speaker 1: a disruption. Yeah, I agree. He wants these kids not
- 42:59Speaker 1: to be complicated. Yeah. And implicitly what makes him bad
- 43:03Speaker 1: is that he's doing a thing that he shouldn't be doing,
- 43:05Speaker 1: that he doesn't have any capacity to do. But he's
- 43:08Speaker 1: not implicitly a bad person.
- 43:09Speaker 2: No and and she that's why she's like confronting him
- 43:13Speaker 2: in ways where that are perfectly reasonable she's like uh
- 43:17Speaker 2: joanne is like give him a little time to settle
- 43:20Speaker 2: down like he he's been through a lot obviously and
- 43:25Speaker 2: it's like he will will do this you know he'll
- 43:29Speaker 2: get better when.
- 43:30Speaker 1: He goes because that's what gives him the idea to
- 43:33Speaker 1: go and try and reconcile with the good guy doll
- 43:37Speaker 1: because he's like all right This is just another doll.
- 43:41Speaker 1: It's not Chucky. Yeah.
- 43:43Speaker 2: But we all know that it is Chucky.
- 43:44Speaker 1: And he's brave. That's brave. It is brave.
- 43:45Speaker 2: For a kid to have that kind of like, that's
- 43:49Speaker 2: a real resilience and smart too.
- 43:51Speaker 1: It is smart. Because he checks the batteries. Andy, Andy,
- 43:54Speaker 1: it checks the batteries. It tries the tooth. And Andy
- 43:56Speaker 1: of part one could never have done this. It's like,
- 43:59Speaker 1: it comes in. And it's really heartbreaking because he's still
- 44:03Speaker 1: a little kid. It's such perfect balance stricken between like
- 44:07Speaker 1: a wiser Andy, but also still such a little kid,
- 44:10Speaker 1: like excellent writing. He comes in and he's like, I
- 44:13Speaker 1: hate you. And it's like, and Chucky goes, hi, I'm, Tommy!
- 44:19Speaker 1: I love the eyes turning slightly. And also increased pitch
- 44:23Speaker 1: in Tommy. I'm Tommy! Like, not Chucky. He was saying,
- 44:28Speaker 1: I'm not Chucky. Yeah, that is what he was saying.
- 44:32Speaker 1: And then Andy picks up the doll and goes downstairs.
- 44:36Speaker 1: And he, like, grooves to them. No, he shows... He
- 44:40Speaker 1: doesn't just go downstairs. He's like, hey! And then goes downstairs. He...
- 44:45Speaker 1: Does a weird display of, like, virtue signaling for himself.
- 44:50Speaker 1: It's like self-advocacy, Andy. He's like, listen, I need a
- 44:55Speaker 1: place to stay, guys. I'm not going back to that institution. Yeah,
- 44:58Speaker 1: for sure. He wants to be here over, you know...
- 45:01Speaker 1: He wants to be with his mom.
- 45:02Speaker 2: Well, he likes these people, too. Like, he doesn't like Phil, necessarily.
- 45:06Speaker 2: But there's, like, Kyle is cool.
- 45:08Speaker 1: Kyle! Yeah, and Joanne.
- 45:11Speaker 2: And they, like, are... They do a good job at...
- 45:15Speaker 2: for all the story stuff that this one doesn't handle
- 45:19Speaker 2: as well as the first one, they do a good,
- 45:21Speaker 2: good job at building character between people. So it's like, what,
- 45:26Speaker 2: what would a kid ask another foster kid? Like, do
- 45:29Speaker 2: you miss your mom and dad?
- 45:30Speaker 1: And it's like, I didn't know my dad and my
- 45:33Speaker 1: mom gave me up for adoption. I was three. Do
- 45:37Speaker 1: you still have memories of her? I made it a
- 45:38Speaker 1: point to forget. I, for some reason, remembered all of
- 45:41Speaker 1: her lines. Like she just had like, she's also like,
- 45:46Speaker 1: There's a kind of like turn into act two where
- 45:50Speaker 1: when she realizes that Chucky is real, she sort of
- 45:56Speaker 1: like she changes and the movie changes. Yeah. And it
- 46:01Speaker 1: becomes an adventure action. Like it becomes like Sarah Connor
- 46:06Speaker 1: part two of Terminator, you know, like when Sarah picks
- 46:10Speaker 1: up John. Yeah. It just really like plays out to
- 46:13Speaker 1: me kind of like Terminator two in a way.
- 46:15Speaker 2: And it's, I think, probably because there's a robot, a kid,
- 46:19Speaker 2: and a lady.
- 46:20Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 46:21Speaker 2: Like, that dynamic works.
- 46:22Speaker 1: They're all kind of against the world in some way. Yeah.
- 46:26Speaker 2: Chucky is both the good guy and the bad, or
- 46:28Speaker 2: the main character and the bad guy. There's a factory, like,
- 46:31Speaker 2: ending with, like, an epic fake-out killing.
- 46:34Speaker 1: Yeah. There's a lot of weird parallels. And then slightly
- 46:38Speaker 1: balded Tommy... Slightly raised, Zali's like, Tommy gets picked up.
- 46:44Speaker 1: I like this scene when, like, they're just, like, outside, like...
- 46:49Speaker 1: Playing on the swing. Playing on the swing, and she's
- 46:51Speaker 1: doing some gardening, and then he picks up, he reluctantly
- 46:53Speaker 1: picks up who he thinks is Tommy. And they go
- 46:56Speaker 1: inside to eat. Dinner! I'm feeding you! Hey! Well, like,
- 47:01Speaker 1: Kyle is.
- 47:02Speaker 2: Ungrateful!
- 47:03Speaker 1: Dinner! I really enjoyed this part, because it shows.
- 47:08Speaker 2: how realistic the dynamics are with kids and adults, or
- 47:13Speaker 2: young adults, where she's finished... gardening and then sits on
- 47:19Speaker 2: the swing and he's like i'll push you and you're
- 47:22Speaker 2: you know when a kid does a thing that you're
- 47:24Speaker 2: like it's annoying well it's like when he made breakfast
- 47:28Speaker 2: at the beginning and you kind of have to play
- 47:30Speaker 2: along with with being like yeah i i'm okay with
- 47:34Speaker 2: this but your kid you don't want to traumatize the
- 47:37Speaker 2: kid in a way that's like i want you to
- 47:39Speaker 2: be creative like this in your real life yeah i think.
- 47:43Speaker 1: I think that was really like handled super well like
- 47:45Speaker 1: she she's.
- 47:46Speaker 2: She really likes him yeah it's a very cute relationship
- 47:50Speaker 2: andy takes tommy into the house with them the.
- 47:54Speaker 1: Subtlety of the differences of the faces where like they're
- 47:57Speaker 1: he's like lit by moonlight as andy is like innocently
- 48:01Speaker 1: sleeping and he's just like more sinister but you can't
- 48:05Speaker 1: really tell exactly what's more sinister about the face yeah
- 48:09Speaker 1: for sure and like it's done so well and then
- 48:11Speaker 1: he starts moving he becomes sentient chucky and And.
- 48:16Speaker 2: While Joanne is... Sewing a garment for... Which is cute.
- 48:20Speaker 2: That's actually kind of cool.
- 48:21Speaker 1: She's responsible for Kyle's, like, cool style. Kyle. And he's
- 48:26Speaker 1: massaging her. He's like, come on. I got another kid.
- 48:29Speaker 1: You promised you'd suck my dick if we did. And
- 48:32Speaker 1: then he's like... And then it's Shibari, Andy... and he's
- 48:37Speaker 1: getting into he's getting into role.
- 48:39Speaker 2: Play wait hold on we didn't say that phil in
- 48:43Speaker 2: his ever shitty behavior is like she she's like what
- 48:47Speaker 2: do you think she'll do you think she'll like this.
- 48:49Speaker 1: I don't know a single thing about teenage girls and
- 48:52Speaker 1: i don't care to because i'm an irresponsible foster parent Well,
- 48:57Speaker 1: I mean, it's also like, it could be like... I'm
- 49:01Speaker 1: doing this for... The people who do these things do
- 49:03Speaker 1: them for weird ulterior motives and project a bunch of
- 49:06Speaker 1: insecurities onto these children. I mean, yeah, fair enough. That's
- 49:09Speaker 1: really true. That seems like a very apt thing to
- 49:14Speaker 1: say about Phil. He does seem to be portraying weird...
- 49:17Speaker 1: He doesn't want to do this. He... doing this for
- 49:21Speaker 1: the bad reasons. I don't know.
- 49:23Speaker 2: Like, he's still doing it.
- 49:26Speaker 1: It's true, dude. But Shibari Chucky, Rope Top Chucky, is
- 49:31Speaker 1: tying up his rope bunny, Andy, and he wants to go,
- 49:34Speaker 1: How they doing? Okay, and let me tell you something, dude.
- 49:38Speaker 1: You said something in the last episode that I wanted
- 49:41Speaker 1: to challenge you on. He's not doing it randomly, dude.
- 49:44Speaker 1: It's the same every single time. It's actually remarkably the same.
- 49:49Speaker 1: The only thing that changes about it is the performance
- 49:52Speaker 1: of it. But the words are like the same. No, no,
- 49:59Speaker 1: I don't... What did I say? What was I saying?
- 50:02Speaker 1: You were like... And then it just sounds like he's
- 50:05Speaker 1: seemingly randomly making up this... Well, seemingly. Seemingly. I didn't...
- 50:09Speaker 1: I wasn't like, it is random. The one thing I've
- 50:13Speaker 1: noticed is later on the pronunciation of Damballa changes. It's
- 50:18Speaker 1: not Damballa. It's more Damballa. Yeah.
- 50:22Speaker 2: And other people say it in the series Damballa or whatever.
- 50:25Speaker 1: Yeah, Damballa. It's kind of like, there was an example
- 50:31Speaker 1: of that in Saw, I think, but I forget now.
- 50:34Speaker 1: And it's, but I like, and why did we think hockey?
- 50:41Speaker 1: It was never hockey. I watched all of them. I
- 50:43Speaker 1: watched the super cut. I downloaded it. And it's always, when,
- 50:46Speaker 1: when she goes, wait, Oh yeah, that was very funny. Funny, funny, funny, funny, funny, funny. Um, I,
- 51:00Speaker 1: I think, I think they had to do it funny
- 51:03Speaker 1: because of the fact that like, he's so little and
- 51:06Speaker 1: it's so funny. I was like, he's cute every time. Yeah.
- 51:10Speaker 1: And what makes the scariness of the sinister part scary
- 51:14Speaker 1: and sinister is that he's cute. Yes, absolutely.
- 51:17Speaker 2: Kyle crawls through the window of Andy's room.
- 51:21Speaker 1: She was sneaking in and sneaking out. And then she's like,
- 51:25Speaker 1: this isn't even a good tie. Who did this? Who,
- 51:28Speaker 1: what amateur did this? Could cut off your blood circuit. Listen,
- 51:31Speaker 1: I know all about Shibari. Um, if you'd.
- 51:33Speaker 2: Like an experience, uh, but this is, this is interesting
- 51:39Speaker 2: because it, creates an already kind of hostile dynamic into
- 51:45Speaker 2: a more hostile dynamic where it's like.
- 51:47Speaker 1: Phil is foaming at the mouth to like get rid
- 51:49Speaker 1: of these kids and he's like what the fuck is
- 51:51Speaker 1: going it's looking weird i mean they're experimenting dude it's
- 51:56Speaker 1: called shibari all right what's with this doll what are
- 52:01Speaker 1: you doing with this doll um are you shoving this
- 52:04Speaker 1: thing up your ass This smells like someone shoved it
- 52:09Speaker 1: up their ass, or at least tried to recently. It
- 52:13Speaker 1: smells like a corporate douchebag's ass. How do I know?
- 52:17Speaker 1: I love eating ass. I'm gay. Phil turns out to
- 52:22Speaker 1: be gay. What? Well, listen, honey, I'm bisexual, but I'm heteroromantic, though.
- 52:31Speaker 2: But it's the 90s, so I can't say anything about this.
- 52:34Speaker 1: And we don't have terms for things like this. queer
- 52:40Speaker 1: that's something a boss a boston guy would call somebody
- 52:44Speaker 1: while beating the shit out of them and we're in
- 52:50Speaker 1: chicago also like that um and then and then phil
- 52:59Speaker 1: takes the doll and is like i'm tired what are
- 53:02Speaker 1: you people doing up I'm throwing this doll on the floor. Well,
- 53:06Speaker 1: first he thinks that Kyle tied him up. Is molesting him? No, shoot.
- 53:11Speaker 1: He's like, obviously you tied this child up. Like, everything
- 53:14Speaker 1: that happens reasonably has another explanation that could be, like,
- 53:19Speaker 1: you know, true. And is way more likely than Chucky
- 53:23Speaker 1: did it. Yeah, exactly. It's probably being molested. Phil is
- 53:27Speaker 1: really losing his patience and he's like so stern with Andy.
- 53:31Speaker 1: Throws Chucky down the stairs. He's like, there! He's fine.
- 53:34Speaker 1: He's dead. I'm gonna lock him down here. And Chucky
- 53:37Speaker 1: wakes up with blood and he's like, no! I'm turning
- 53:41Speaker 1: human again! It's kind of like... For who?
- 53:45Speaker 2: For who, dude?
- 53:46Speaker 1: Who the fuck is he saying this to? I think...
- 53:51Speaker 1: I know. I think it's realistic. I'll tell you why,
- 53:54Speaker 1: because he's lonely. He's in inside a Chucky and he's,
- 53:59Speaker 1: becoming a chucky and.
- 54:00Speaker 2: Like brad dorff can do this.
- 54:03Speaker 1: I think i agree he misses his own life he
- 54:07Speaker 1: misses his friend theresa caputo dude yeah i used to
- 54:11Speaker 1: fuck your sister theresa okay is he kidding me no
- 54:15Speaker 1: i'm turning human again and they make it seem like
- 54:18Speaker 1: it's happening like faster this time or something i don't
- 54:21Speaker 1: know there's definitely i love the i love the magic
- 54:23Speaker 1: of it Yeah, for sure. Oh, also, sorry, I forgot
- 54:27Speaker 1: to mention something that's very important. We get a subtle
- 54:30Speaker 1: lore drop from Grace Zabritsky, who was like, he was
- 54:33Speaker 1: a killer that was ritualistically killing people in voodoo. Yes,
- 54:37Speaker 1: we never mentioned that. He was never voodoo killing people.
- 54:42Speaker 1: Voodoo magic. Fucking voodoo magic, man. Ha ha ha ha
- 54:47Speaker 1: ha ha.
- 54:48Speaker 2: Well, Andy gets taken to first day of school where
- 54:52Speaker 2: Kyle gives some sage advice on new kid smell. You
- 54:56Speaker 2: don't believe me.
- 54:58Speaker 1: Nobody believes me. Why? Did Chucky try and get you?
- 55:01Speaker 1: But like the trying to like minimize a real traumatic event.
- 55:06Speaker 1: But like from her perspective, it's like, yo, dude, like
- 55:09Speaker 1: that's far. Like you think a doll came to life
- 55:12Speaker 1: and killed somebody? You know, you probably did it. As
- 55:15Speaker 1: a kid, I remember being so on Andy's side and
- 55:17Speaker 1: being like, she's just being mean to him. But it's
- 55:19Speaker 1: like she doesn't know and it would be what a
- 55:21Speaker 1: kid her age would do like to kind of defuse
- 55:24Speaker 1: the situation. But also she doesn't have the like capacity
- 55:28Speaker 1: to be mature about the situation. Totally because she's fucking 17. Yeah.
- 55:31Speaker 2: And then Andy sadly throwing the ball at a fence
- 55:34Speaker 2: by himself.
- 55:35Speaker 1: By himself. dude the chucky legs dangling from the back
- 55:38Speaker 1: of the bus was they loved they did a lot
- 55:41Speaker 1: of kicking chucky in this like the robots just kicking
- 55:44Speaker 1: its legs on the back of a person.
- 55:45Speaker 2: And then chucky following him to school and then writing
- 55:49Speaker 2: on the paper fuck.
- 55:51Speaker 1: You bitch fuck you bitch to finding andy's favor sitting
- 55:56Speaker 1: at the desk cartoonishly finding andy's favor and writing down
- 56:00Speaker 1: in crayon red crayon Fuck you, bitch. And then we
- 56:03Speaker 1: get the fade in to... It like fades their... Crossfades
- 56:08Speaker 1: their faces. And she's like, Pinocchio loved Geppetto. Puppets are
- 56:13Speaker 1: in this movie. This movie's about puppets. It's very puppets
- 56:16Speaker 1: are in this movie. And she's so Croatian looking. And
- 56:22Speaker 1: they've like dressed her up. She was the most Croatian.
- 56:26Speaker 1: She never looked as Croatian as she did in this movie.
- 56:29Speaker 1: And in Speed. Yes, both.
- 56:31Speaker 2: And, like, they made her look older despite not being
- 56:36Speaker 2: that old.
- 56:37Speaker 1: She's not that old in this. She's not this old.
- 56:40Speaker 1: They dressed her older. They dressed her older. Because she's
- 56:42Speaker 1: kind of hot. She's very hot. And she's, like, Andy
- 56:45Speaker 1: gets his ear flicked by the kid who's sitting behind him.
- 56:47Speaker 1: He calls him a microchip. She's younger than us in
- 56:48Speaker 1: this movie, for sure. You think so? Yeah, I think so.
- 56:51Speaker 1: I think she's younger than us. Interesting. Or maybe she's, like,
- 56:54Speaker 1: your age. But, like, I'm like... I don't know. Anyway,
- 56:57Speaker 1: she's like, alright, I don't like smart people and you
- 57:00Speaker 1: should be getting on my goods. Dude, the amount of, like, okay,
- 57:04Speaker 1: I wanted to talk to you about fucking Beth Grant's
- 57:06Speaker 1: incredible Croatian performance in this because she, like, I, in
- 57:11Speaker 1: this very same year, had a Croatian teacher named Miss
- 57:15Speaker 1: Saretta that was so mean to us, dude, because it
- 57:18Speaker 1: was the 90s. Because she was Croatian? Because she was
- 57:20Speaker 1: Croatian and she had some sectarian feelings, dude. She hated
- 57:23Speaker 1: Yugoslavian kids and she was mean to the Serbian kids, dude.
- 57:27Speaker 1: So Miss Saretta was mean to the Serbian kids and
- 57:29Speaker 1: she very much reminded me of the unruly energy of
- 57:33Speaker 1: Beth Grant in this movie. Like Beth Grant. You've imprinted
- 57:37Speaker 1: the Croatian on her. Maybe that's. She was 41. So
- 57:40Speaker 1: she is. She's my age. Yeah. Dude, Beth Grant, when
- 57:44Speaker 1: she sees the fuck you bitch, she's almost excited. Chomping
- 57:48Speaker 1: at the bit at the opportunity to punish this kid.
- 57:52Speaker 1: She like shows him. She like shoves the thing in
- 57:55Speaker 1: his face and like doesn't let him go. Grabs him
- 57:59Speaker 1: by the arm. shoves him down into his desk, and, like,
- 58:04Speaker 1: talks down yelling at him. It's incredibly scary, and it's
- 58:09Speaker 1: shot from his angle, and she's like, who did this?
- 58:12Speaker 1: Then who did this? And he looks at the doll,
- 58:14Speaker 1: and she's like, don't even think about it.
- 58:16Speaker 2: Oh, I love that.
- 58:17Speaker 1: I love that. Do you think this is funny? Mishandles
- 58:21Speaker 1: Chucky again, like, violently handles Chucky in a way that, like...
- 58:27Speaker 1: everyone who does that in a movie gets so destroyed
- 58:30Speaker 1: and killed she yeah totally she she also um the
- 58:37Speaker 1: offense that is taken does feel very like i man
- 58:42Speaker 1: like if that happened i don't know how i would
- 58:45Speaker 1: feel if a kid did that yeah yeah no i
- 58:49Speaker 1: i understand i understand i just think that.
- 58:52Speaker 2: But yes, she has it out for all the children.
- 58:55Speaker 1: She seems to be very excited to punish this child
- 58:59Speaker 1: in a way that sometimes adults did feel.
- 59:01Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely in a way that sometimes adults did feel,
- 59:05Speaker 2: but also in a way that is like a weird.
- 59:10Speaker 1: power trip. Yeah, yeah. It's like, no, it's like something
- 59:13Speaker 1: about their character where it's like, this is who you are.
- 59:15Speaker 1: You want to lord your power over children. And this
- 59:19Speaker 1: gets into- So you use your children. This gets into
- 59:21Speaker 1: the territory of needing to hate the character that's going
- 59:28Speaker 1: to die in order for Chucky to be still kind
- 59:30Speaker 1: of a good guy. You know what I mean? That's
- 59:32Speaker 1: totally true. And I think this is like kind of
- 59:36Speaker 1: part of the redemption of Chucky. Andy, please let me out.
- 59:43Speaker 1: Let me out, you little dick. We loved the you
- 59:46Speaker 1: little dick line. And like the eye, the mechanical eye
- 59:50Speaker 1: blinking as it goes to the like peep hole or
- 59:54Speaker 1: the key hole is amazing. And him terrifyingly. I also.
- 59:58Speaker 2: I promise I won't kill anyone else.
- 1:00:02Speaker 1: It's amazing and like i think and then beth grant
- 1:00:05Speaker 1: panickingly comes back she after she fucking locked this child
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: in this room and i mean people used to hit
- 1:00:13Speaker 1: children in this era too so it it locking the
- 1:00:16Speaker 1: door doesn't seem like that big a deal i still
- 1:00:19Speaker 1: remember in grade three when mr brownlee hurt mark grabbed
- 1:00:23Speaker 1: his arm physically, gave him a bruise, and then they
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: told Mr. Brownlee it was time to retire. And then
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: he taught me how to read, dude. He was an
- 1:00:32Speaker 1: amazing teacher. With a really racist version of Charlie and
- 1:00:36Speaker 1: the Chocolate Factory. The most racist version of Charlie and
- 1:00:38Speaker 1: the Chocolate Factory. It was a first edition. He gave
- 1:00:41Speaker 1: it to us. And then, Andy! Beth Grant panicking chicken
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: comes to the... To the closet. To the closet. It's, like,
- 1:00:50Speaker 1: such a, like, deep walk-in closet filled with, like, children's
- 1:00:53Speaker 1: clothing and, like, balls and shit. But, like, it just
- 1:00:56Speaker 1: kind of seems like no school looks like this. They
- 1:00:59Speaker 1: feel like they, like, filled it with just kids' stuff. Yeah, totally.
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: I love... The way she does it is so good.
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: It's so memorable. This movie has, like, the most memorable parts,
- 1:01:10Speaker 1: I think.
- 1:01:11Speaker 2: Yeah, the most memorable Chucky face that Michael Powers used
- 1:01:14Speaker 2: to do.
- 1:01:15Speaker 1: Totally, dude.
- 1:01:16Speaker 2: Where he stabs her.
- 1:01:18Speaker 1: This is the most Michael Powers Chucky face. That's what
- 1:01:20Speaker 1: I mean, yeah. When he comes over, he's like, da!
- 1:01:22Speaker 1: When he pumps her with the pump. I remember him
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: making this. Because he would have hair like that, too,
- 1:01:27Speaker 1: that it was like, oh, man. Maybe I'm just combining
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: Michael Powers and Chucky. This is the weirdest death because
- 1:01:35Speaker 1: of the fact that he just kind of hits her
- 1:01:37Speaker 1: with a ruler. It's kinky Chucky, dude. We have already
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: established that he's into Jabari. He's always kinky Chucky. But
- 1:01:44Speaker 1: now he's into impact play as well. And he's got
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: this fucking ruler that he's trying to... He's like, do
- 1:01:50Speaker 1: you just let me know what the safe word is, darling?
- 1:01:53Speaker 1: And we'll go right from there. But the sinister face
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: that he's making as he's walking towards... It's not Michael Powers,
- 1:01:59Speaker 1: but it's like slightly bald and Chucky, too. And she
- 1:02:02Speaker 1: drags the blood, tries the tooth. And then he spanks
- 1:02:06Speaker 1: her and they cut to her face reacting. It's amazing, dude.
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: But they don't show her actually get killed. He just
- 1:02:16Speaker 1: spanks her. Good kinky Chucky.
- 1:02:19Speaker 2: Well, they also don't call.
- 1:02:22Speaker 1: Polyamorous Chucky. Canonically polyamorous. They don't call the... parents to
- 1:02:28Speaker 1: be like, hey. That's what I was like, hey, a
- 1:02:31Speaker 1: teacher died after putting.
- 1:02:36Speaker 2: Your son Andy in detention. Phil shows Andy that the
- 1:02:42Speaker 2: doll is still downstairs. Tommy is still downstairs.
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: And Tommy is still downstairs. Yes, absolutely. Because he didn't move.
- 1:02:48Speaker 2: And he's like, listen, you say it like it's a
- 1:02:50Speaker 2: bad thing. His name is Tommy. It's not Chucky.
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: He's been there since last night. This like beautifully fucking
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: like dollied over shot that's like weirdly did you notice
- 1:03:01Speaker 1: all the like handheld in this movie what did you
- 1:03:04Speaker 1: notice all of the like cool handheld in this movie
- 1:03:07Speaker 1: especially at the end uh not really actually and like
- 1:03:11Speaker 1: this like panned shot that like it starts in the
- 1:03:14Speaker 1: like it starts in the family room with the joanne
- 1:03:19Speaker 1: and uh phil arguing and and him being.
- 1:03:24Speaker 2: Like the kid needs professional help joanne he's right though
- 1:03:27Speaker 2: yeah they're out of their element he knew that they
- 1:03:30Speaker 2: couldn't do it well now you're now you're sounding like me.
- 1:03:35Speaker 1: He knew that they couldn't do it dude and then
- 1:03:36Speaker 1: they pan over to andy and it's so sad and
- 1:03:39Speaker 1: but they like see you see all these like old
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: pictures in this house how did they shoot this this
- 1:03:44Speaker 1: looks so good this is just a set i'm pretty
- 1:03:46Speaker 1: sure i'm pretty sure the whole house is just a
- 1:03:48Speaker 1: set it looks so good and they like pan over
- 1:03:52Speaker 1: It's very slow and you just hear this like argument
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: like play out and Andy sitting alone in the room quietly.
- 1:03:59Speaker 2: And then Kyle comes in and she's like, it's okay.
- 1:04:02Speaker 2: I've been through this too, kid. And he's like, they're
- 1:04:04Speaker 2: going to send me away.
- 1:04:07Speaker 1: That's fine. I've been with like dozens of families. I
- 1:04:10Speaker 1: don't even remember any of them. Yeah. And the idea.
- 1:04:16Speaker 1: She's just like, you're just going to have to learn
- 1:04:19Speaker 1: how to rely on yourself. Yeah.
- 1:04:21Speaker 2: You're just going to have to be a libertarian like me.
- 1:04:23Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, she is.
- 1:04:24Speaker 2: Or an anarchist, whatever, whatever.
- 1:04:28Speaker 1: We'll see where, where society takes her, dude. But yeah,
- 1:04:32Speaker 1: like it's, it's so good. It's so good. And him
- 1:04:36Speaker 1: being like, wherever I go, Chucky will find me. Oh man.
- 1:04:40Speaker 1: It's so sad too. Cause you, the dramatic irony of
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: the audience being the only one that actually knows he's
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: telling the truth. And nobody else being around except for
- 1:04:49Speaker 1: his mother who's institutionalized. Yeah. It's, like, so scary. So lonely.
- 1:04:54Speaker 1: And then him coming down and doing what Chucky does
- 1:04:58Speaker 1: with his tiny hand, like, opening drawers and stuff. And
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: then getting the turkey cutter. I love that. This was, like,
- 1:05:06Speaker 1: such a cool little kid idea of, like, I'm going
- 1:05:09Speaker 1: to take this into... Takes her advice. He's like, I'm
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: going to take this into my own hands. Yeah, 100%.
- 1:05:16Speaker 2: And then he goes downstairs to the basement and thinks
- 1:05:19Speaker 2: that Chucky's in the dryer and stabs the clothing.
- 1:05:23Speaker 1: He just starts preemptively, like, drilling into the dryer. I
- 1:05:26Speaker 1: loved it, too. I thought the logic of it was, like,
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: really sound for a child. And he just gets ambushed
- 1:05:34Speaker 1: by Chucky. He gets, like, jump scared. He's like....
- 1:05:40Speaker 2: So much biting, Chucky.
- 1:05:43Speaker 1: There's a lot. He loves, like, going for the neck
- 1:05:45Speaker 1: in this. Like, neck-biting jerk, Chucky.
- 1:05:48Speaker 2: And then Phil hears something happening, and he goes downstairs,
- 1:05:53Speaker 2: and he sees Andy with the knife, and is like,
- 1:06:01Speaker 2: put the knife down, Andy.
- 1:06:02Speaker 1: His reaction is like, okay, this has been enough of this.
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: This is over. I'm... No, we didn't say that Andy
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: slightly cuts Chucky's head. Oh, yeah, totally.
- 1:06:14Speaker 2: And Phil gets tripped by Chucky with a pole. It's
- 1:06:20Speaker 2: like a fish hook.
- 1:06:21Speaker 1: It's like the thing that they used to take minstrel
- 1:06:24Speaker 1: shows off the stage with. Oh, yeah. It's like the
- 1:06:28Speaker 1: thing that Bugs Bunny takes someone off the stage with.
- 1:06:30Speaker 2: And then Phil reverse motions off the floor and dies.
- 1:06:35Speaker 1: I go... The neck, like, fucking gooping is so gross.
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: And Chucky B... It looks really good. The reverse motion
- 1:06:46Speaker 1: looks really good. And gives it this, like, scary, but
- 1:06:50Speaker 1: not before revealing himself to Phil, saying, how's it hanging, Phil?
- 1:06:54Speaker 2: That was a very Beetlejuice.
- 1:06:57Speaker 1: That's what the movie reminds me of, actually.
- 1:06:59Speaker 2: I was trying to think... Well, because it has the
- 1:07:01Speaker 2: molesting guy, dude.
- 1:07:03Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. Yeah. Jeffrey Jones. i don't i watched
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: part of beetlejuice too i couldn't i couldn't watch the
- 1:07:12Speaker 1: whole thing yeah um but the way they try to
- 1:07:14Speaker 1: include the molesty guy it almost makes it worse because
- 1:07:17Speaker 1: i'm just like stop reminding me of him you could
- 1:07:20Speaker 1: have just said he died i don't care he doesn't
- 1:07:22Speaker 1: have to be a huge part of the movie oh
- 1:07:24Speaker 1: that's true he's a huge part of the way i
- 1:07:26Speaker 1: had to include molesty guy Oh, man.
- 1:07:28Speaker 2: In that movie, he's a huge part. Dude, heartbreak of
- 1:07:31Speaker 2: part two?
- 1:07:32Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I know. Way too big a part. They
- 1:07:35Speaker 1: could have just been like, and he died. He wasn't
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: that important in part one. Anyway, it doesn't matter. It's
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: so sad when she's like, get away from me. Yeah. Oh, man.
- 1:07:46Speaker 2: Phil dies. And Joanne is just like, oh, my God.
- 1:07:52Speaker 1: Yeah, and she doesn't care about Andy anymore. Nope. She's like, well,
- 1:07:56Speaker 1: we're packing you up. You're going to... You're going back.
- 1:08:00Speaker 2: And she regrets not listening to Phil.
- 1:08:03Speaker 1: Yeah, just like... But when was she supposed to return
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: him that same night? Yeah. Maybe she just meant she
- 1:08:08Speaker 1: should have listened to his instinct about Andy. Andy! Which,
- 1:08:13Speaker 1: as you concede, was completely correct. I mean, yeah. He
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: wouldn't have died. He ended up fucking dying. He could
- 1:08:19Speaker 1: have had a nice life with this woman. Yeah. They
- 1:08:21Speaker 1: didn't have to have children. Kyle was cool. It was
- 1:08:24Speaker 1: society's pressure that was making them have children. It's true.
- 1:08:27Speaker 1: It's true.
- 1:08:28Speaker 2: Grace Zabriskie dead-eyed looking at Andy being like, we'll find
- 1:08:31Speaker 2: a place for you. I'm going to pretend for you
- 1:08:35Speaker 2: that your life.
- 1:08:36Speaker 1: Is going to be okay. But it's not. Oh, man.
- 1:08:38Speaker 1: As a ward of the state. The way she's, like,
- 1:08:42Speaker 1: so dead-eyed about it. Like, a guy just, Andy just
- 1:08:46Speaker 1: saw another guy die. Yep. And, like, Andy's not being, like,
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: I don't know, sufficiently, like, I don't know. Like, he's
- 1:08:58Speaker 1: been involved in all of these deaths. now like i
- 1:09:01Speaker 1: if i was like the police.
- 1:09:04Speaker 2: You'd be final destinationing a little bit and yeah like
- 1:09:07Speaker 2: you would.
- 1:09:07Speaker 1: Like we have the red string out dude and you'd
- 1:09:09Speaker 1: be like tying the photos all together uh but grazer
- 1:09:12Speaker 1: brisky is Is David Lynch dead-eyed in this? Yes. This
- 1:09:16Speaker 1: was the same time they were filming David Lynch, dude.
- 1:09:18Speaker 1: This was Twin Peaks era. Twin Peaks era. She looks
- 1:09:21Speaker 1: so good, dude. She looks so amazing. Yeah.
- 1:09:24Speaker 2: It's funny when the only time we see the police,
- 1:09:27Speaker 2: they're doing nothing. The one dude at the floor being like,
- 1:09:32Speaker 2: Besides the boy witness, did anybody else see the accident?
- 1:09:36Speaker 1: No. Well, see you later. Exactly. It's literally that. That's
- 1:09:40Speaker 1: the only investigating that happens. Well, they did a budget cut, dude,
- 1:09:43Speaker 1: since two years ago. And it's just hard. It's been
- 1:09:47Speaker 1: a hard time.
- 1:09:48Speaker 2: This reveal is really nice because.
- 1:09:51Speaker 2: Kyle grabs the toy, grabs the good guy doll, throws
- 1:09:55Speaker 2: it away, and then is on the swing, reminiscing about
- 1:09:59Speaker 2: having fun with Andy and smoking a cigarette, and then.
- 1:10:02Speaker 1: Smoking cigarettes?
- 1:10:05Speaker 2: She kicks off the dirt from where Tommy is buried
- 1:10:09Speaker 2: and realizes... It's a cool reveal.
- 1:10:12Speaker 1: It's a reveal.
- 1:10:14Speaker 2: In the same sense that when Catherine Hicks opens the
- 1:10:18Speaker 2: back of the Good God doll in the first one
- 1:10:20Speaker 2: and there's no batteries in it. It's that kind of
- 1:10:22Speaker 2: reveal in how clever it is.
- 1:10:26Speaker 1: Did you say the part where she puts Chucky in
- 1:10:29Speaker 1: the garbage? Yes. Yeah. She puts Chucky in the garbage
- 1:10:32Speaker 1: and then goes... Anyway. She goes to the swing and
- 1:10:35Speaker 1: finds Tommy. Yeah. I literally just did that. Yeah. Sorry. Sorry.
- 1:10:39Speaker 1: I thought we missed the part where she gets thrown away. Because... Yeah,
- 1:10:44Speaker 1: she really makes a point of, like, looking at him there,
- 1:10:46Speaker 1: and then when she sees the other doll, it, like,
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: all clicks for her. And we get, like, Chucky reveals
- 1:10:57Speaker 1: himself to her.
- 1:11:00Speaker 2: Well, he sees, she goes to find the garbage, and
- 1:11:04Speaker 2: she hears upstairs that something's happening with Joanne, and she's like, Joanne!
- 1:11:08Speaker 2: And runs upstairs. But before that, she grabs a cool knife.
- 1:11:12Speaker 1: She does grab a cool knife. I love this knife.
- 1:11:15Speaker 1: I like the.
- 1:11:16Speaker 2: Because they kind of set up that they're collectors of stuff.
- 1:11:19Speaker 1: And it's like, oh, this is a knife from a
- 1:11:20Speaker 1: cool place. Totally, totally. I love that.
- 1:11:23Speaker 2: And then she goes upstairs and Joanne is like sewing.
- 1:11:27Speaker 1: And she's, like... She's dead.
- 1:11:29Speaker 2: She's dead, but, like... She's slumped over. She's slumped over,
- 1:11:33Speaker 2: but she's got, like, a cut neck and tied up. It's, like,
- 1:11:37Speaker 2: kind of makes no sense.
- 1:11:38Speaker 1: And also looks like... The makeup looked like Are You
- 1:11:43Speaker 1: Afraid of the Dark? Yeah, it was very Are You
- 1:11:44Speaker 1: Afraid of the Dark? I was just like, guys, like,
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: you had the budget to make Chucky have, like, a
- 1:11:49Speaker 1: curvy sneer nose, but you can't do a better dead face?
- 1:11:54Speaker 1: And then....
- 1:11:56Speaker 2: He tries to, like, choke her. He's so fast. He's
- 1:12:00Speaker 2: so fast.
- 1:12:01Speaker 1: And when he's, like, on her back, he's kicking his
- 1:12:04Speaker 1: little legs.
- 1:12:05Speaker 2: And she hits him with the light, and he steals
- 1:12:07Speaker 2: the knife.
- 1:12:09Speaker 1: And... And then she, like.
- 1:12:16Speaker 2: What's cool about the performance and stuff with the doll
- 1:12:19Speaker 2: is the, like, using... There's a lot of using bodies and, like,
- 1:12:26Speaker 2: using the ability to not be in.
- 1:12:31Speaker 1: Like.
- 1:12:32Speaker 2: Charles Lee Ray uses this toy body, and then the
- 1:12:34Speaker 2: toy body has to, like, figure out ways to get
- 1:12:37Speaker 2: places fast. So he, like, kidnaps Kyle to go back
- 1:12:41Speaker 2: to the, like, orphanage to get Andy.
- 1:12:45Speaker 1: Totally.
- 1:12:46Speaker 2: But it's also, like, a personal spite-driven thing of, like.
- 1:12:53Speaker 2: Like, I want to get revenge on this kid by
- 1:12:56Speaker 2: taking over his body, and I have to be this
- 1:12:58Speaker 2: kid now.
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: Neck biting dude but he never actually bites the neck
- 1:13:03Speaker 1: he's just trying to go.
- 1:13:04Speaker 2: For it yeah how much further till we get to
- 1:13:06Speaker 2: the kid why what's the rush step on it if
- 1:13:11Speaker 2: i don't get back to this kid i'm gonna be
- 1:13:13Speaker 2: stuck in this body like the weird explanation giving too
- 1:13:18Speaker 2: much detail to this random kid and.
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: Also like the fact that they show the trajectory of
- 1:13:24Speaker 1: chucky getting more human throughout yeah um kind of like,
- 1:13:29Speaker 1: this is where you sort of are like, he also
- 1:13:32Speaker 1: has like taken on like protagonist qualities of like, we're
- 1:13:36Speaker 1: now following his story. Yeah, totally.
- 1:13:38Speaker 2: Well, it's like, he's like when the cop tries to
- 1:13:42Speaker 2: stop them, he's like, just.
- 1:13:45Speaker 1: Step on it.
- 1:13:46Speaker 2: And she's like, I can't do that.
- 1:13:48Speaker 1: Like I'm, and she is like, all right, pull over. Um, that,
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: And this, like, fucking vaguely molesting cop is like, hey.
- 1:13:57Speaker 1: That's one of those good guy dolls, isn't it? You're 17.
- 1:14:00Speaker 1: I see that you're 17. He's being, like, pretty leery.
- 1:14:06Speaker 1: Kind of. He leans into that window. Like, it's not,
- 1:14:10Speaker 1: it just feels a little like, huh, okay. Like, but, like,
- 1:14:14Speaker 1: familiar in a way. Yeah, that's true.
- 1:14:17Speaker 2: It's like, all right, honey. You were clocked at a
- 1:14:19Speaker 2: 60 and a 45.
- 1:14:21Speaker 1: What's your hurry? I have a date. You're going to
- 1:14:23Speaker 1: have to do better than that. That's immediately what I thought. Hey,
- 1:14:28Speaker 1: this is one of those good guy dolls. What's your name? Chucky.
- 1:14:33Speaker 1: That's incredible. I've actually retrofitted this one with a fleshlight,
- 1:14:38Speaker 1: so you can fuck it. Really? All right.
- 1:14:41Speaker 2: Let me give it a shot.
- 1:14:44Speaker 1: Ew. No! No! No! This body! I now have a pussy! Dude,
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: imagine she retrofitted it with the flashlight. And the flashlight
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: becomes a pussy.
- 1:14:57Speaker 2: Becomes part of Chucky. Have you seen those dolls that pee?
- 1:15:01Speaker 1: This one bleeds. that's like a weird i would be.
- 1:15:04Speaker 2: So weirded out if if this happened but yeah like
- 1:15:08Speaker 2: some of this stuff he's got the he's got the
- 1:15:11Speaker 2: fleshlight dude some some of this stuff feels a little
- 1:15:14Speaker 2: bit like let's try.
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: And extend some of the time for this movie because
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: the movie's already only an hour and 23 minutes it's
- 1:15:21Speaker 1: amazing dude i love how short it is 70 minutes
- 1:15:27Speaker 1: but like this scene is totally useless there's no the
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: cop scene yeah there's just nothing to do with with
- 1:15:33Speaker 1: it has nothing.
- 1:15:33Speaker 2: To do with anything it's just a reason to get
- 1:15:37Speaker 2: chucky less close to become to become more human basically.
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: Yeah i mean that's kind of what was cool about
- 1:15:44Speaker 1: like the stalling is like chucky is there is a
- 1:15:47Speaker 1: frustration of like with so that when that moment comes
- 1:15:50Speaker 1: we're like ah what do you mean when the dembela
- 1:15:53Speaker 1: goes away because he's been in the body too long
- 1:15:55Speaker 1: well let's get to it he's so upset okay okay
- 1:15:58Speaker 1: okay um it's so you feel his upsetness because he's
- 1:16:02Speaker 1: like oh fuck the thing i wanted didn't happen.
- 1:16:05Speaker 2: Yeah and when when he's like just shut up and
- 1:16:07Speaker 2: drive and then she puts on her seat belt and
- 1:16:11Speaker 2: she like drives and like uh what's it called she
- 1:16:15Speaker 2: breaks too hard and and he flies out the window
- 1:16:18Speaker 2: and they just threw a doll.
- 1:16:21Speaker 1: Because he's got that fucking heavy ass titanium skull It's true.
- 1:16:24Speaker 1: You guys head first right through that window.
- 1:16:26Speaker 2: But she does, like, what most people don't do in
- 1:16:29Speaker 2: this series, which is, like, go fucking hard on trying
- 1:16:32Speaker 2: to kill Chucky.
- 1:16:33Speaker 1: She steps up, for sure. I always thought she was
- 1:16:36Speaker 1: so badass, dude. He flies out the window.
- 1:16:39Speaker 2: He drives at her. He's, like, super fast. And then she, like,
- 1:16:45Speaker 2: unfortunately gets taken up again. And Andy is, like, prepared.
- 1:16:54Speaker 1: With his uh.
- 1:16:57Speaker 2: Like he's dressed up and an alarm gets pulled and
- 1:17:01Speaker 2: they're they're all start to leave and this is a
- 1:17:03Speaker 2: great iconic looking scene where she's standing with the doll
- 1:17:09Speaker 2: it's so cool it's so great and.
- 1:17:11Speaker 1: We we see that the knife is like pressed up
- 1:17:14Speaker 1: against her back.
- 1:17:16Speaker 2: Grace Zabriskie's reaction to Andy being up there and then
- 1:17:19Speaker 2: seeing Kyle and she's like, did you do this?
- 1:17:21Speaker 1: I love it. It continues the tradition of the adults
- 1:17:25Speaker 1: assuming things. Oh, you did this, didn't you? He did.
- 1:17:30Speaker 1: I love that. That was so great.
- 1:17:34Speaker 2: And then get it to my office. And then getting
- 1:17:36Speaker 2: a reason to get Chucky alone with Grace Zabriskie is awesome.
- 1:17:43Speaker 1: Dude, the amount that they showed, like, just her shoes,
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: her Doc Martens, like, underneath the car and stuff when
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: she's getting out. I was just like, first of all,
- 1:17:52Speaker 1: iconic Doc Martens, but I kept thinking that Chucky was
- 1:17:55Speaker 1: going to go and cut her Achilles heel. Yeah, oh, constantly.
- 1:17:59Speaker 2: I was like, does he cut somebody's Achilles heel at
- 1:18:01Speaker 2: this point? No, they just show a lot of shoes.
- 1:18:05Speaker 1: Gray Sebrisky fucking.
- 1:18:06Speaker 2: Well, they're shooting it from a low angle because it's
- 1:18:08Speaker 2: like from a kid's point of view, right? Or from
- 1:18:10Speaker 2: Chucky's point of view. So it's like a lot of
- 1:18:12Speaker 2: wide angle, low shots.
- 1:18:15Speaker 1: Like, it's cool. It looks different than a lot of movies. Yeah,
- 1:18:19Speaker 1: for sure.
- 1:18:19Speaker 2: Grace Zabriskie getting stabbed and then falling onto the photocopier
- 1:18:22Speaker 2: and then sliding on, and then the papers.
- 1:18:24Speaker 1: So funny. Some PA throwing the papers onto Grace Zabriskie's face.
- 1:18:29Speaker 1: And also, we know how slow those things were. Her
- 1:18:32Speaker 1: face got scanned max twice. So many times, yeah. Max
- 1:18:35Speaker 1: twice from what I could see. Yeah, absolutely. Before she
- 1:18:37Speaker 1: fell down, succumbing to her wounds. But they got, like, literally, like,
- 1:18:42Speaker 1: 17 different, like, headshots of her. Yeah. Doing like different
- 1:18:46Speaker 1: wacky faces. She's great, man. She's awesome. Snap out of it!
- 1:18:51Speaker 1: It ain't like you've never seen a dead body before!
- 1:18:55Speaker 1: Pointing it out to the traumatized kid. Yeah, and that
- 1:18:58Speaker 1: kind of actually works for Andy when he says that. Dude,
- 1:19:02Speaker 1: Chucky's kind of like a glazed-over look. Like, slightly closed eyelids, Chucky. Totally. Totally. Uh,
- 1:19:09Speaker 1: Chucky gets to the outside with Andy, and they go
- 1:19:13Speaker 1: into the Chicago Tribune newspaper truck, uh, and they get
- 1:19:17Speaker 1: driven out, and then... Wait, sorry. The way he stabs
- 1:19:22Speaker 1: Grace and Risky in the face she makes as she's
- 1:19:25Speaker 1: getting stabbed is amazing, too. Sorry, I just had to
- 1:19:27Speaker 1: say that. Sorry, you were saying?
- 1:19:28Speaker 2: Um, Kyle goes to try and find the Chicago Tribune truck, uh,
- 1:19:35Speaker 2: and get to Andy, and then.
- 1:19:39Speaker 2: This is basically where we get to.
- 1:19:42Speaker 1: The Terminator factory? Yeah, it's kind of like the final
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: real moments of the movie because Kyle manages to catch
- 1:19:55Speaker 1: up to the Chicago Tribune truck and they've disappeared and
- 1:19:58Speaker 1: they've gotten to... a Chucky factory.
- 1:20:04Speaker 2: But before then, the driver of the Chicago Tribune truck
- 1:20:07Speaker 2: is like, what the.
- 1:20:08Speaker 1: Hell are you doing to my car?
- 1:20:09Speaker 2: Why did you fucking drive into my car, you idiot?
- 1:20:16Speaker 2: And yeah, it is basically kind of like a low-budget
- 1:20:20Speaker 2: Terminator 2.
- 1:20:21Speaker 1: Yeah that's what happens there's a driving into the truck
- 1:20:25Speaker 1: the bullet falls yeah they go into the factory there's
- 1:20:28Speaker 1: the the factory scene is very intense there's fake out
- 1:20:31Speaker 1: deaths yeah there's goop it's like yeah it's like a
- 1:20:37Speaker 1: lot of similarities.
- 1:20:38Speaker 2: Yeah i i really really there's magic in this one
- 1:20:42Speaker 2: though yeah i really loved when the the the realization
- 1:20:47Speaker 2: that the.
- 1:20:48Speaker 1: The clouds go away. It looks so good, dude. And
- 1:20:56Speaker 1: like his little hand waving around. I'm fucking trapped in here.
- 1:21:04Speaker 1: And then his raison d'etre becoming wanting to just end
- 1:21:10Speaker 1: Andy's life. Yeah.
- 1:21:11Speaker 2: They become, it's almost like a Batman Joker relationship where
- 1:21:15Speaker 2: it's like, I just want to fucking kill you.
- 1:21:18Speaker 1: Yeah, totally.
- 1:21:18Speaker 2: And like, you know, we can kind of jump from
- 1:21:22Speaker 2: piece to piece in the best parts because it's a
- 1:21:24Speaker 2: lot of like running around, figuring things out. Like when,
- 1:21:29Speaker 2: for example, the amount of meat puppet that he is now.
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: Wait, okay, hold on, hold on. I fucking love the
- 1:21:35Speaker 1: meat puppet. See, this is why this one is my favorite. Yeah.
- 1:21:39Speaker 1: And it's because I love the combination of meat, gush... And, like,
- 1:21:47Speaker 1: the way that it's mixed together with the plastic, there's
- 1:21:49Speaker 1: something kind of, like, Cronenbergian about it. Yeah, totally. And, like, the, like,
- 1:21:55Speaker 1: touch of, like, him kind of anointing Andy with his blood.
- 1:21:58Speaker 1: There's just this, like, drip of blood that's on Andy's face. Yeah, totally.
- 1:22:02Speaker 1: It's like forever connecting them, kind of, but, like, not
- 1:22:06Speaker 1: getting the wish that he wanted of connecting to his soul.
- 1:22:09Speaker 1: And him making the most Mike Powers face was.
- 1:22:10Speaker 2: Like, Well, then they're, like, chased around. They're going through
- 1:22:15Speaker 2: this factory, and at one point, they're crawling onto the, like,
- 1:22:19Speaker 2: rollers in this cage, and Kyle shuts the door onto.
- 1:22:25Speaker 1: uh.
- 1:22:26Speaker 2: His onto chucky's hand and chucky meat rips it off
- 1:22:32Speaker 2: and like it's so it's so cool it's so brutal
- 1:22:35Speaker 2: and i remember how it looked it looked so painful
- 1:22:38Speaker 2: and the blood curdling scream that that let's out like
- 1:22:44Speaker 2: fell and like the fact that they close up to
- 1:22:46Speaker 2: the eyes widening and like scurrying around in the head
- 1:22:50Speaker 2: there's so much personality totally and like you could tell
- 1:22:53Speaker 2: also that not everything always worked so they had to
- 1:22:55Speaker 2: like cut around things still yeah they couldn't get every
- 1:22:59Speaker 2: single shot they envisioned so they had to be really
- 1:23:02Speaker 2: creative with it and it really comes through and then
- 1:23:05Speaker 2: there are More eyeball stabbings in the puppets. We get
- 1:23:12Speaker 2: another kill with the security guard. Security comes because... Security
- 1:23:16Speaker 2: guard and or some, like, person.
- 1:23:19Speaker 1: Technician. Like, scientist. Yeah. They were, like, kind of a
- 1:23:22Speaker 1: mix between scientists and, like, just, like, warehouse workers here.
- 1:23:27Speaker 1: Chucky using... Taking the knife, taking the handle off, and
- 1:23:31Speaker 1: stabbing his own handless... Like, he stabs the knife into
- 1:23:39Speaker 1: his hand, making a stabby hand. Like, shaky face. Yeah,
- 1:23:48Speaker 1: and the way he stabs the knife in is so gross. And, like,
- 1:23:54Speaker 1: wraps it with packing tape and does a reveal. Also
- 1:23:58Speaker 1: fucking knife hand, like T-1000, dude. T-1000, very knife hand.
- 1:24:02Speaker 1: This was, like, proto-Terminator 2, dude.
- 1:24:06Speaker 2: The technician slash security slash worker goes down annoyed and
- 1:24:17Speaker 2: is like, what do I got to do now?
- 1:24:20Speaker 1: I'm reading a newspaper. Gets his eyes stabbed out. Gets
- 1:24:23Speaker 1: his eyes stabbed in by the head.
- 1:24:25Speaker 2: Of course.
- 1:24:26Speaker 1: And then Kyle and Andy....
- 1:24:34Speaker 2: Like find the melted plastic part, which again would never
- 1:24:38Speaker 2: be like, no.
- 1:24:38Speaker 1: We see, we see first this like scene of, um,
- 1:24:42Speaker 1: like how the arms and legs get stapled. Oh yeah. Yeah. Okay. Okay.
- 1:24:45Speaker 1: You were saying they, they find the melted plastic, but
- 1:24:48Speaker 1: then we see like this conveyor belt taking, uh, the
- 1:24:51Speaker 1: dolls up to get like stapled and.
- 1:24:53Speaker 2: Yeah, to get their hands and legs put in and
- 1:24:55Speaker 2: their eyeballs put in and their hair sewn in. They just, like,
- 1:24:59Speaker 2: it felt a little bit like, we need another kill
- 1:25:01Speaker 2: for this.
- 1:25:02Speaker 1: I agree, but... Wait, are you saying that because of, like,
- 1:25:07Speaker 1: how the, like, technician gets murked? Yeah, it's just, like,
- 1:25:10Speaker 1: it's very much like... Eye stabbing? They just wanted to
- 1:25:13Speaker 1: use that eye... They tried to do it with the
- 1:25:15Speaker 1: eye thing. Eye thing, yeah. They needed it to pay off, dude.
- 1:25:17Speaker 1: It had to go into a person. And then, like,
- 1:25:20Speaker 1: I don't even know if this is, like, a dummy that's, like, walking,
- 1:25:24Speaker 1: if it's, like, a puppet or puppeteered or, like, a
- 1:25:27Speaker 1: small person. I think there was definitely, like, a couple
- 1:25:29Speaker 1: of small person shots. This one decidedly less small person
- 1:25:33Speaker 1: moving around than part one. Oh, man. It was mostly puppet.
- 1:25:36Speaker 2: When Chucky comes down on the conveyor belt and tries
- 1:25:40Speaker 2: to stab Andy, and then he gets stabbed with hairs
- 1:25:45Speaker 2: drilled into him.
- 1:25:46Speaker 1: And those, like... annoying fucking tag.
- 1:25:50Speaker 2: Oh yeah plastic tags yeah and then he gets put
- 1:25:53Speaker 2: in uh and fuck i knew i was gonna forget
- 1:25:57Speaker 2: this at one point chucky earlier in the movie gives
- 1:26:00Speaker 2: the finger to kyle driving and then later on as
- 1:26:04Speaker 2: he's getting pulled back i always.
- 1:26:05Speaker 1: Thought it was so weird the way she raises.
- 1:26:08Speaker 2: The finger well she does it because they raise the
- 1:26:10Speaker 2: finger in okay.
- 1:26:11Speaker 1: So this was in an era where like americans didn't
- 1:26:16Speaker 1: do the balls but now the americans do the balls
- 1:26:19Speaker 1: too now they do this i.
- 1:26:21Speaker 2: Don't know people i think more people still do they
- 1:26:23Speaker 2: still flip the bird without the balls they.
- 1:26:25Speaker 1: Still flip the flip the bird with the balls without
- 1:26:27Speaker 1: the balls but well she does it without the balls
- 1:26:30Speaker 1: yeah just like chucky did but he doesn't have enough
- 1:26:33Speaker 1: like fingers for the balls yeah um but we get
- 1:26:36Speaker 1: to see like this doll stapled with a bunch of
- 1:26:38Speaker 1: like hands and arms and stuff oh the.
- 1:26:41Speaker 2: Meat sack that he also probably had to rip himself
- 1:26:45Speaker 2: out of too.
- 1:26:46Speaker 1: It was part alien too yeah ripped herself off of
- 1:26:50Speaker 1: the piece of the body um yeah dude so gnarly
- 1:26:54Speaker 1: and he's pulling himself on like a little like a
- 1:26:58Speaker 1: trolley he's like i'm gonna cut you andy he just
- 1:27:03Speaker 1: wants to kill andy he doesn't care about anything else
- 1:27:06Speaker 1: anymore Yeah, she gets knocked. Okay, this makes no sense,
- 1:27:14Speaker 1: because the implication is that Chucky, the doll, somehow strung
- 1:27:20Speaker 1: up this adult man, this human adult man. Well, yeah,
- 1:27:24Speaker 1: that part was so rad. And swings the adult man,
- 1:27:28Speaker 1: hitting Kyle to fall onto the conveyor belt. and get
- 1:27:31Speaker 1: like temporarily knocked out dude the 90s love temporary knockouts
- 1:27:36Speaker 1: and doesn't treat head trauma as like a serious thing
- 1:27:38Speaker 1: that if you get knocked out that's not good dude
- 1:27:41Speaker 1: nope you'll probably die or have brain damage yeah like
- 1:27:45Speaker 1: or at the very worst you'll have like cte you
- 1:27:47Speaker 1: know or like not very worst very least case scenario
- 1:27:51Speaker 1: yeah um dude I love the Cronenbergian gush, dude. Like,
- 1:27:57Speaker 1: melted plastic. It's always been my favorite thing about Chucky is, like,
- 1:28:01Speaker 1: the melted plastic deaths mixed with the, like, kind of
- 1:28:04Speaker 1: human viscera is so cool and iconic. Yeah. And he
- 1:28:10Speaker 1: melts or puts the melted goo onto....
- 1:28:14Speaker 2: Chucky, and then goes to save Kyle. And he successfully does.
- 1:28:19Speaker 1: He pours, like, boiling plastic on Chucky. It's amazing, dude.
- 1:28:27Speaker 1: It's amazing. And, like, it looks so good. And, like,
- 1:28:31Speaker 1: then how the kind of, like, hairs underneath are melted,
- 1:28:35Speaker 1: but also melted into the.
- 1:28:36Speaker 2: Skin yeah totally and there's like a little like hose
- 1:28:40Speaker 2: that's squirting pressurized air out of it and chucky wakes
- 1:28:44Speaker 2: up and is like gooing on her and like she's
- 1:28:49Speaker 2: holding the head back in such a way that she
- 1:28:52Speaker 2: doesn't want to touch more of the body well.
- 1:28:55Speaker 1: I think it's still hot yeah I think it's supposed
- 1:28:58Speaker 1: to be that it's still hot. But, like, I love
- 1:29:00Speaker 1: that Chucky gets so destroyed and is still alive. Like,
- 1:29:03Speaker 1: I mean, very much, that is an element of Chucky
- 1:29:06Speaker 1: that I think, man, like, Chucky gets the most destroyed.
- 1:29:11Speaker 2: Yeah, he gets the most gooed in this. And she
- 1:29:14Speaker 2: shoves the air hose away. into the mouth that seemingly
- 1:29:18Speaker 2: melts onto the mouth and has his titanium head exposed.
- 1:29:21Speaker 1: We get a real Freddy Part 4 graphics. It is.
- 1:29:24Speaker 2: That was something that I noticed too. Freddy, it seems
- 1:29:28Speaker 2: very Freddy influenced.
- 1:29:30Speaker 1: Yes, totally. Because the music is very Freddy. I was
- 1:29:33Speaker 1: going to comment on the music and say how... Chucky
- 1:29:36Speaker 1: doesn't have a memorable theme. No, not really. It's mostly the...
- 1:29:43Speaker 1: But the music in the background is good. It's just
- 1:29:46Speaker 1: not really like... I don't remember like a... Yeah. Or,
- 1:29:53Speaker 1: you know, any of the other ones. Yeah. Or... Exactly. Exactly.
- 1:29:56Speaker 1: And a cool hour and 20 minutes... Credits, obviously, three minutes.
- 1:30:05Speaker 1: We gotta pad this out. Well, hold on. Can I
- 1:30:08Speaker 1: just say, they exploded his fucking head this time.
- 1:30:11Speaker 2: So they can't... Can you just say that?
- 1:30:13Speaker 1: No, I know, no, but I'm just saying, like, they
- 1:30:14Speaker 1: can't rebuild him. Well, what they do... Well, we'll see
- 1:30:18Speaker 1: what they do. For some reason... They pour the blood.
- 1:30:21Speaker 1: For some reason, they grab it with a crane. Nobody
- 1:30:25Speaker 1: questions that this doll is bleeding. Yeah. Human blood. It
- 1:30:30Speaker 1: looks like fucking, like, uh, Kwato.
- 1:30:34Speaker 2: It's very Quatto, yeah.
- 1:30:35Speaker 1: And she's like.
- 1:30:36Speaker 2: Is it still hot?
- 1:30:37Speaker 1: Is the plastic still hot? It is still hot. Is
- 1:30:39Speaker 1: she burning her hand? Yes.
- 1:30:42Speaker 2: But she's got so much adrenaline.
- 1:30:44Speaker 1: And how he's got, like, kind of, like, pieces of
- 1:30:46Speaker 1: plastic goo covering one of the eyes and, like, in
- 1:30:50Speaker 1: part of the mouth, too. And she wedges that in. Sorry,
- 1:30:53Speaker 1: I'm just, like, I love the, like, specific descriptions. And
- 1:30:56Speaker 1: the eyeball kind of, like, dangling around as the head, like,
- 1:31:00Speaker 1: starts balloon exploding. Ah, dude. Fuck, man. Best Chucky kill.
- 1:31:07Speaker 1: Best Chucky kill. I'm going to go ahead on a
- 1:31:09Speaker 1: limb and say, like, this is the one to beat. Yeah, definitely. Definitely.
- 1:31:17Speaker 2: She's like, where are we going? Or he's like, where
- 1:31:19Speaker 2: are we going?
- 1:31:20Speaker 1: And she's like, home. And he's like, where's home? I
- 1:31:25Speaker 1: don't know. We're probably going to get swallowed back up
- 1:31:28Speaker 1: into the system, and it's not very good, obviously. I mean,
- 1:31:32Speaker 1: that's an interesting....
- 1:31:35Speaker 2: That's kind of an interesting idea, though. Like, these, like,
- 1:31:38Speaker 2: kids who are kind of on the lam. Kind of,
- 1:31:45Speaker 2: it's interesting.
- 1:31:46Speaker 1: It's a weird, interesting movie. Imagine watching the security footage
- 1:31:51Speaker 1: of that night, dude. Totally, yeah. Seeing this, like, tiny
- 1:31:54Speaker 1: doll chase out, like, there would be, like, indelible evidence, dude. Yeah,
- 1:31:59Speaker 1: there would be so much evidence that Chucky was a thing. Yeah.
- 1:32:03Speaker 1: And then their market shares, that footage would definitely leak
- 1:32:06Speaker 1: if it was right now. On YouTube, for sure. Yeah. Yeah. Well,
- 1:32:10Speaker 1: it would be on different Telegram sites first. And then
- 1:32:14Speaker 1: eventually they'll know that they can't hide it anymore. Incredible cast, dude.
- 1:32:19Speaker 1: Incredible cast. The movie moves. I'm going to give it...
- 1:32:27Speaker 1: I'm going to go ahead and rate it first, okay? Yeah.
- 1:32:30Speaker 1: uh 10 out of 10 chucky's uh chucky's just getting
- 1:32:32Speaker 1: more and more and more chucky 10 out of 10
- 1:32:34Speaker 1: dembalas uh he's definitely got the spirit of dembala in
- 1:32:38Speaker 1: him and we didn't really need any more exposition on
- 1:32:40Speaker 1: that except for that he did ritualistic voodoo killings um
- 1:32:44Speaker 1: but as a movie dude which is probably the most
- 1:32:47Speaker 1: more interesting ranking of the two for this one i
- 1:32:50Speaker 1: would give it a solid eight yeah as a chucky
- 1:32:53Speaker 1: movie a solid eight no just as a movie in
- 1:32:56Speaker 1: general If part one is a 10, this one's a
- 1:32:59Speaker 1: strong 8. Yeah, I mean, I'm a little bit less.
- 1:33:04Speaker 2: I'm definitely all the Dembolos, but I will say 7.5,
- 1:33:10Speaker 2: just because.
- 1:33:11Speaker 1: Well, I need to challenge you on that, dude, because
- 1:33:13Speaker 1: what knocks it off that half point for you?
- 1:33:15Speaker 2: I think that.
- 1:33:19Speaker 2: I think it's a struggle when you've got a sequel....
- 1:33:29Speaker 1: This type of movie because it just feels a little
- 1:33:31Speaker 1: bit like there's no like they they kind of they
- 1:33:43Speaker 1: wrote themselves into a corner no it's not that they
- 1:33:46Speaker 1: wrote themselves into a corner it's that like a little
- 1:33:50Speaker 1: bit it feels like slapdash explanations in a way that's
- 1:33:55Speaker 1: like well we don't really need to think about this
- 1:33:58Speaker 1: you know and i feel like it knocks a little
- 1:34:01Speaker 1: bit off for me just because of the fact that
- 1:34:03Speaker 1: like i feel like coming off the first one i'm
- 1:34:07Speaker 1: like it's a little bit disappointing and i can't have
- 1:34:11Speaker 1: that that expectation because it's like how else are they
- 1:34:14Speaker 1: gonna do moving forward they have a way the second
- 1:34:17Speaker 1: one has a way more difficult job to do than
- 1:34:20Speaker 1: the first than the third one Because by the third one,
- 1:34:23Speaker 1: you're like, well, we're into the lore, right? I'm going
- 1:34:26Speaker 1: to go ahead and push back only because, and I
- 1:34:30Speaker 1: want to bring a point to you and see how
- 1:34:32Speaker 1: it makes you feel, okay? And you can decide how
- 1:34:35Speaker 1: you feel after that. But I say that this movie
- 1:34:39Speaker 1: does a really good job of, like I said at
- 1:34:41Speaker 1: the very beginning, piggybacking off of the reality of storytelling
- 1:34:46Speaker 1: from the first one. And leaning into that, which is
- 1:34:48Speaker 1: another way to do a sequel. Yeah. There's always the
- 1:34:53Speaker 1: genre pivot, but this one doesn't do that as much.
- 1:34:56Speaker 1: It does have like, it's circumstantially pivots because it's focusing
- 1:35:00Speaker 1: in on the driving story of Chucky as a narrative. Yeah.
- 1:35:04Speaker 1: Rather than like telling some kind of like, broader story
- 1:35:07Speaker 1: through characters right like it's like seeing things to logical
- 1:35:11Speaker 1: conclusions within the reality established within the movie yeah so
- 1:35:16Speaker 1: it's just further diving into that and you're right it
- 1:35:19Speaker 1: does have the harder job of doing that than any
- 1:35:23Speaker 1: subsequent movie would but it takes that leap which makes
- 1:35:26Speaker 1: me give it an eight.
- 1:35:27Speaker 2: Well let's listen to maybe i can change your mind
- 1:35:30Speaker 2: okay And I don't really want to change your mind.
- 1:35:33Speaker 2: I appreciate that it's just like a difference. And it
- 1:35:37Speaker 2: could be a difference without a distinction. But think about
- 1:35:40Speaker 2: it in this way. The completeness of the first one
- 1:35:45Speaker 2: as just a whole narrative and the completeness of the
- 1:35:50Speaker 2: third one, which is a whole narrative, this one kind
- 1:35:53Speaker 2: of has to bridge the gap between the two in
- 1:35:55Speaker 2: a way that's like it's two separate stories at once.
- 1:35:58Speaker 2: It's charles lee ray's story trying to get to the
- 1:36:03Speaker 2: body that he first told the secret to that he
- 1:36:06Speaker 2: has to get to and also the last kind of
- 1:36:10Speaker 2: few minutes of the movie being like a purely revenge
- 1:36:13Speaker 2: story to kill andy whereas the third one is purely
- 1:36:19Speaker 2: a revenge story because he wants to kill andy for no.
- 1:36:22Speaker 1: He can get him he can get a body in
- 1:36:24Speaker 1: that one he's trying to get a body in that
- 1:36:26Speaker 1: one I think the rule is that he resets because
- 1:36:30Speaker 1: he's now in a new body. In a new body, maybe, yeah. Well,
- 1:36:33Speaker 1: because remember, Charlie's going to be... Chucky's going to be
- 1:36:35Speaker 1: a brother. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Racist Chucky. Like, he's
- 1:36:39Speaker 1: excited at the prospect of being black, but also, imagine Chucky. Like,
- 1:36:44Speaker 1: there's a reality that Chucky goes into the black kid
- 1:36:46Speaker 1: and then just has to live a new life experiencing
- 1:36:50Speaker 1: systemic racism. And then it, like, rehabilitates him because he
- 1:36:53Speaker 1: realizes empathy. Well, listen.
- 1:36:56Speaker 2: We already know he fetishizes black people in the first one.
- 1:36:59Speaker 1: Oh, wow.
- 1:37:02Speaker 2: I mean, he's got those portraits of himself, like, worshipping John.
- 1:37:06Speaker 1: That's right, yeah.
- 1:37:08Speaker 2: And it's like, what is this, you know?
- 1:37:13Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, like, well, that's up for speculation, and
- 1:37:17Speaker 1: we'll see when we get there, but I also just
- 1:37:21Speaker 1: really love Andy, and Seeing Andy's story play out and
- 1:37:27Speaker 1: seeing Andy grow as a character, there was something really
- 1:37:31Speaker 1: satisfying for me about it. Like, seeing the same actor
- 1:37:34Speaker 1: do it, such a young actor, live up to such a, like,
- 1:37:38Speaker 1: difficult task. And, you know, in a way, he had
- 1:37:42Speaker 1: to step up to... make up for the fact that
- 1:37:45Speaker 1: katherine hicks wasn't in this one totally and he really
- 1:37:48Speaker 1: does like he carries this movie he carries the movie
- 1:37:51Speaker 1: he co-carries the movie with kyle but he does way
- 1:37:54Speaker 1: more of the heavy lifting and chucky of course yeah
- 1:37:56Speaker 1: um but he does way more of the heavy lifting
- 1:37:58Speaker 1: and i think that i don't know that i really
- 1:38:03Speaker 1: like admire andy as a character and that kid as
- 1:38:07Speaker 1: his performance so This one really does it for me,
- 1:38:11Speaker 1: and that's why I think I maybe, like, it edges
- 1:38:13Speaker 1: it for me, you know, into, like, higher territory. Yeah.
- 1:38:17Speaker 1: But also, I will say, the thing that kind of, like,
- 1:38:21Speaker 1: is sticking with me is that it's very little kid.
- 1:38:26Speaker 1: in a way super little kid in a way that
- 1:38:28Speaker 1: i i allowed it to be pantheon for me in
- 1:38:30Speaker 1: a way that was untarnished and it never became not
- 1:38:34Speaker 1: little kid so now it's like watching it back i'm
- 1:38:37Speaker 1: like oh okay i understand chucky is more little kid
- 1:38:41Speaker 1: than than um or child's play um but i also
- 1:38:46Speaker 1: think that's part of what works for it yeah because
- 1:38:50Speaker 1: it's like you know what yeah we are for little
- 1:38:53Speaker 1: kids but we're gonna be the coolest thing for little
- 1:38:55Speaker 1: kids you've ever seen.
- 1:38:56Speaker 2: Yeah and it is it is it is for it's
- 1:38:59Speaker 2: very little kid yeah like and also even the killing
- 1:39:03Speaker 2: adults he like mostly kills adults.
- 1:39:06Speaker 1: And it's funny it's not that scary no no like
- 1:39:11Speaker 1: the scary scary the scariness in this one comes from
- 1:39:14Speaker 1: other things like more like ideas wise it's less like
- 1:39:18Speaker 1: you know like the kills and the gore is not
- 1:39:22Speaker 1: except for chucky gore is like pretty.
- 1:39:24Speaker 2: Yeah chucky gore is like meat and like what you
- 1:39:28Speaker 2: can do how much you can stuff in into a
- 1:39:31Speaker 2: doll a balloon yeah um.
- 1:39:35Speaker 1: Yeah so are you what are your some of your
- 1:39:38Speaker 1: uh thoughts for going into the third one other andy
- 1:39:42Speaker 1: different andy casting.
- 1:39:43Speaker 2: Different andy casting near future near future is weird the
- 1:39:48Speaker 2: 90s fucking loved near future they loved shooting something two
- 1:39:52Speaker 2: years later but setting it seven.
- 1:39:55Speaker 1: Yeah this one's set i guess he's 15 he's supposed
- 1:40:00Speaker 1: to be 15 it's supposed to be 1999 i think
- 1:40:02Speaker 1: no I think in the movie it's supposed to be 1999.
- 1:40:07Speaker 1: I think the movie's supposed to be 1995. It's shot
- 1:40:11Speaker 1: in 92 and it's set in 99. Let's bet on
- 1:40:14Speaker 1: it and we'll see.
- 1:40:15Speaker 2: You want to bet on it?
- 1:40:16Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll bet something innocuous. Okay. What do you want
- 1:40:20Speaker 1: to bet? I think it's 1995. For some reason, I
- 1:40:22Speaker 1: think it's... Now I'm second guessing it. Well, I'll double down.
- 1:40:26Speaker 1: I'm saying it's 1999. Whoever's closer wins. Okay. What if
- 1:40:31Speaker 1: it's like $ 97? Well, then I don't know. Who cares?
- 1:40:33Speaker 1: It doesn't matter anyway. What are we betting? Like a meal? Mendy's? Mendy's?
- 1:40:41Speaker 1: I don't know. Let's just hang out. I don't have
- 1:40:43Speaker 1: any money. Mendy's. You owe me a Mendy's. Soup is
- 1:40:47Speaker 1: the meal. That's the meal. You bake food one day.
- 1:40:51Speaker 1: This is the meal, dude. You were supposed to give
- 1:40:53Speaker 1: me food. No. I make chicken figures. No, dude. I
- 1:41:00Speaker 1: make chicken figures. All right. All right. See you later. Bye.
