  Speaker 1: In a world where movies rely on marketing more than
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: ever to connect with audiences, one podcast aims to make
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: sense of it all. This is movies and marketing.
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: Next Saturday Night, where's sending you that to the future?
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: Go ahead, make my day? How about now, you're crazy
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: Dutch bastard.
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: What we've got here.
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: Is failure your mill gate take them.
• 0:31
  Speaker 4: The ground where a fresh hole of pw for we
• 0:34
  Speaker 4: might as well with time, I am an f B
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: I agent. It's that time again, Shad. What time is
• 0:46
  Speaker 4: that is Summer Draft town baby? Whoo whoo?
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: My god, what a surprise because I don't prepare for
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: these episodes in any way, so totally caught off guard,
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: and I don't look forward to this like it's Christmas Day,
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: big gear though. Oh on the Summer movie Draft. It's
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: our ten year anniversary.
• 1:04
  Speaker 4: Happy birthday, neft to present in ten.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: Years of the Draft. That's crazy. Ten years of our lives.
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: Devoted to this thing that I think is probably our
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: most favorite episodes of the year, where we get to
• 1:22
  Speaker 4: be competitive and yet just have a lot of fun.
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: Because it lasts, it's like one episode, well technically two
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: if you count the Award show wrap up. Yeah, but
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: two episodes that basically span in an entire summer, you know,
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: because we're checking the box office numbers all year.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we're constantly tracking, poking each other with updates like ooh,
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: that didn't open. How I hoped.
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: A little bit of smack talk happening as we go
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: through our daily lives. I'll be sitting somewhere just happen
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: to see an article that says this tanked.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah, reviews on this one coming out are bad, and
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: you're like, ooh, that's not good. Yeah, or you're hoping.
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: You're like, well, I still got this coming in July.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: There's a chance.
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a lot of hope left. And then when
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: you get to that point where you realize you're snuffed
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: for the year, you start to reevaluate your life choices.
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's amazing how much my life, my everyday life,
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: all year round, depends on this draft.
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 2:28
  Speaker 4: I think the feeling of knowing you're losing the draft
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: is a lot like when you have your favorite sports
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: team and they've just lost the big thing, right, could
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: be the playoffs, it could be the super Bowl, it
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: could be the NBA Championship, whatever it is, the World Cup, right,
• 2:45
  Speaker 4: you're going through that moment and it's just like this pit. Yeah,
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: a little sadness but doesn't ruin your life.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: But you know, yeah, how am I ever going to
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: get back there? Yeah? Yeah, so happy thoughts to I
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: really start thinking off here. The mathematicians out there might
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: be asking, is this technically the eleventh year? Shut up?
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: You're wrong. COVID through us for a loop. There was
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: no challenge in twenty twenty because we had no summer movies.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: We couldn't do it. Yeah, it was a rough year.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: It was hard that way. You know, it's nice to
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: have a break from everything, but it was devastating to
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: lose the draft. It was so currently this grudge match
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: that we have going. The series stands four to five,
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: four wins to five wins. You still have that edge.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: You still got those five wins. But as listeners know,
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: longtime listeners, I've been creeping on a comeup. Yeah, two
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: years in a row, right, two in a row after
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: a long disastrous, very very depressing. As listeners well also
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: might remember losing streak from twenty nineteen to twenty twenty three.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: You know, I'm back, I'm relevant again.
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: Good. Yeah, it was necessary too, you know, like I
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: say all the time, I mean, when you're at the top,
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: there's really no place but to go down. We joked
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: for many years like, as I was just winning and
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: winning and winning, that this is just a blip, maybe
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: that I was just having a little bubble and that
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: bubble was gonna eventually pop. And that's kind of what
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: happened the last two years. I just tanked both years.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: I mean, the odds are nobody can win forever. My
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: worry was, I'm like, how long is this blip? This
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: five year blip? Is this a twenty year blip? What
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: am I looking at here?
• 4:32
  Speaker 4: Honestly, it's been fun losing, you know. I know this
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: sounds like me just saying this because I lost, But
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: when you're winning that many years in a row, you
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: start to feel a little like bad. Yeah, I mean
• 4:48
  Speaker 4: I'm not I'm not kidding, you know, because I know
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: we both enjoy this. I knew you were into it too,
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: and winning is fun, don't get me wrong. But when
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: you see the other person kind of like sh you're
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: just like that.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: Poor soul over there, can't get a win?
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: Please suh?
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: Please?
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: Can I just have a little more in my box office?
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: Tempaz and you know, our rules, the way we have
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: them set up give the winner a little advantage, so
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: when you're on the other side, you're almost lose some control, right, Yeah,
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: when you're coming into the draft the next year, you're
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: kind of at the whims a little bit of the
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: other person, which changes the game a little.
• 5:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and we've changed the game a little bit over
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: the years, as everyone knows, when we first started, the
• 5:33
  Speaker 4: draft was kind of set up a little differently than
• 5:35
  Speaker 4: it is today. Yeah, we didn't have bonus structures the
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: way we have today, and I think it's just made
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: it a little more creative and fun for us and
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: maybe even for the listeners. You could tell us, we've
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: heard some pretty positive things. Now, I'm not gonna lie
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: our bonus structures. If you're not really paying attention to
• 5:53
  Speaker 4: the entire episode, like most podcasts, you know, where you're
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: kind of coming in and out like you're doing something
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: and you're like, wait, what, how do does that bonus
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: structure work? It could get a little confusing. We have
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: taken the liberty of posting what those bonus structures are
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: on the show notes and stuff. So sometimes if you
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: go back to the show notes, it helps give some
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: context to how our bonus structure works. But we try,
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: we try to describe it, at least for you so
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: you understand what's going on.
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we briefly go through those things, but we don't
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: want to get too much into the weeds because we
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: want to get to the you know, the meat, the
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: actual draft, So we kind of skim over it and assume,
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: you know, people catch up in the end, which they
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: seem to have. So let's get to the rules of
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: the game. Patrick, how does this whole thing work?
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: The game is pretty simple. Each team, so Shad's team,
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: my team. We each picked seven movies, and that team
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: whose movies have the most or the highest combined domestic
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: box office total at the end of the summer wins keynote.
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: They're domestic, not worldwide. We're not international yet. Maybe someday,
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: but not right now. Yeah.
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Then there's the specific rules that we have to follow.
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: So what defines the summer movie season. We've talked about
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: this many times in the past. Any movie released in
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: the US from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: is eligible. You know, that fluctuates every year, but this
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: year it's Friday, May twenty second to Friday September fourth.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty wide this year.
• 7:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it makes a big difference because there's a lot
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: of people who say, well, that's what do you mean, Like,
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: why didn't you include this movie or that movie? Every
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: year we say it it's Memorial Day to Labor Day,
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: so whatever that is, we stick to that, and that
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: keeps us honest because otherwise we've had years where we
• 7:41
  Speaker 4: could like include these big box office blowouts and we
• 7:44
  Speaker 4: didn't because it didn't follow the rules.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Michael, not a summer movie. Came out at the
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: end of April.
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: It's not a summer movie.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 7:52
  Speaker 4: Back in the day, Guardians, I think was like one
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: of those that we had to eliminate because it was
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: too early.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, early May. It's not summer.
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so only theatrical releases. Streaming services we haven't really
• 8:06
  Speaker 4: been able to verify numbers, so we eliminated those. And
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: then when we record our final results, if the latest
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: released Picked in the draft comes out before August fifteenth,
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: we will tally results until September fifteenth. If the latest
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: release Picked comes out after August fifteenth, then we tally
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: results until September thirtieth. It's based on your picks essentially. Yeah,
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: that's a pretty important rule because for those who want
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: to listen to the wrap up show, that wrap up
• 8:38
  Speaker 4: show can fluctuate a lot of times. We post that
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: wrap up show like October, right because September we record
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: the episode sometimes September, and then you know, by the
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: time we edit it and stuff like that. So for
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: those out there, you know, you look for the wrap
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: up show, probably October.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: Ish early October.
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, h yeah, it's pretty safe to say that, you know,
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: you'll get the results in that space of time. All right, Well,
• 9:05
  Speaker 4: drafting the teams, how does that work? We have a
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: rule that's pretty significant.
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: Rule of the game that we made and it really
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: has kind of changed the game since we inserted it.
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: Last year's winner, we're like, what do you get for winning?
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: You have to get something that gives you, you know,
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: an advantage, makes it worth your while. Here's what it is.
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: Last year's winner gets to choose between taking the first
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: pick or getting picks two and three consecutively. This is
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: a big deal. So you can choose to go first,
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: but then the other person's going to get two and three,
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: so you're going to be for one and four or
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: you can go two and three and you know the
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: other person will then be one and four. So there's
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: a strategy there, So that kind of comes into play.
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: As the winner last year, this is going to be
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: my choice to make here as we step into the
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: draft shortly, So big deal, still mullying over in my mind.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: You know, there's so many things to think about there.
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: That is like the best part and also the most
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: stressful part, I think for both parties, right, for both teams, yes,
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: because when you are the winner and you have that choice,
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: it's an incredible amount of pressure to figure out what's
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: going to be the right call there, because that can
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: make or break you. Because I think there were a
• 10:18
  Speaker 4: couple of years right where I gave you the first pick.
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and then I blew it.
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: But you just I think you just did a little
• 10:29
  Speaker 4: gamesmanship there, and you're like, man, if you're that winner,
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: it's a lot of stress on your shoulders, a lot
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: to carry it really is. You're getting kind of thrown
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: into a situation. So the stress of that is like, okay,
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: well if I get two and three or I get one,
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: whatever that is, It's like you got to make choices
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: on the fly at that point. Yeah, you can't predict
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: what you're gonna do before you go in.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you can have an idea of what you're gonna
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: do based on what happens, but you know, you don't
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: know exactly what's going to happen. So it leaves things
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: kind of up in the air in a way that
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: just creates discomfort.
• 11:06
  Speaker 4: Yeah, added complexity to your strategy. So we talked about
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: our bonuses. The first one we have, we call it
• 11:13
  Speaker 4: the Raiders Reward, a little bonus for the movie with
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: what we call the best legs, the movie that makes
• 11:19
  Speaker 4: the most money beyond its opening weekend. So say it
• 11:22
  Speaker 4: makes like fifty million its opening weekend and then it
• 11:26
  Speaker 4: makes six hundred million going forward. Movies like I don't know,
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: I think of like Top Gun Maverick that like it
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: made a lot of money opening weekend, but that it
• 11:33
  Speaker 4: played and played week after week, it kept like hauling
• 11:36
  Speaker 4: in money. I don't know if it was the bonus
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: that year, but something like that. That's kind of something
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: that wins the Raiders Reward. What's our next one? What's
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: our next bonus?
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: Patrick?
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: The next one is the Wick Award, which is named
• 11:52
  Speaker 4: after John Wick.
• 11:54
  Speaker 2: The Wick Award is.
• 11:55
  Speaker 4: Each team will guess the total box office before bonuses
• 11:59
  Speaker 4: during the draft, and then the team that comes closest
• 12:02
  Speaker 4: to hitting the target without going over gets a bonus.
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: Kind of like John Wick. You know when he does
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: those headshots, he's always hitting his target.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: Can we hit the target?
• 12:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he can fire a gun blindly though, hit is guy.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah. We tend to be a little off and you
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: can't go over. That always makes things a little dicey.
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: The price is right rules. I love that because it
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: really does keep you honest. I can't go crazy with
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: my numbers, you know.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but you want to get you still want to
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: get close, so you can you can get it. The
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: next one is pretty important one, I think, or it's
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: become more important in recent years. It's the Indie Equalizer.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: With their final pick of the draft, each team has
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: the option to select from a list of films released
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: by independent studios. So not your Warner Brothers, not your
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: Paramount you know, these are from your your A twenty four,
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: your Focus films, your Angels studios, your smaller studios. And
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: if you choose one of these movies, you are awarded
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: the gross of the movie, plus a bonus of three
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: times the gross of the movie. This is where we
• 13:08
  Speaker 2: get a little into the mat. So if a movie
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: makes fifteen million, you get that fifteen million, and then
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: you also get a forty five million dollar bonus, you know,
• 13:17
  Speaker 2: three times at fifteen, so you end up with sixty
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: million for that fifteen million dollar movie. This allows the
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: indie movies to kind of play in the big leagues
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: with the other guys, at least for one pick been
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: pretty important. I think you got Materialists last year. You
• 13:31
  Speaker 2: got a good amount of good chunk of change for this.
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: I know I had like Long Legs a couple of
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: years ago, and I got a significant amount of money
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: for this. There is a cap on the bonus for
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: this that is one hundred million. You can't get beyond
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: that for the bonus amount, Yeah, which is I think fair. Yeah,
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: pretty generous.
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: We thought that the cap needed to be there because
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: you know, if the movie does one hundred million, you
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: can't get three hundred million for that indie movie, yeah
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: on top of the hundred Yeah, it'd be ludicrous. The
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: last one is trade back to the Future. This is
• 14:04
  Speaker 4: the one that can really maybe do some damage someone's
• 14:09
  Speaker 4: whole world. Essentially at the end of the draft. At
• 14:13
  Speaker 4: the end of the summer, when we tally the results,
• 14:15
  Speaker 4: each of us can choose to use this option with
• 14:19
  Speaker 4: one of their picks, any one of them. With it,
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: you basically trade back in time for a movie that
• 14:25
  Speaker 4: finished in the domestic rankings the same number as your picks,
• 14:28
  Speaker 4: anywhere between one and fourteen. Here's the twist. The year
• 14:32
  Speaker 4: will be randomly picked from the years nineteen eighty five
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: to twenty twenty five. Techniques twenty twenty five. Yeah, by
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: spinning a wheel, some years could give you a great result,
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: while O there's you know, you might just shoot yourself
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: in the foot, but if you're doing it, it's usually
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: for a reason, so you have sometimes nothing to lose.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, an underperforming movie. Mm hmmm.
• 14:56
  Speaker 4: And clearly this is named for the greatest time travel
• 14:59
  Speaker 4: movie of all time, Back to the Future.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: It hasn't happened yet, but I'm gonna call it now.
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: I think this is gonna be the year the trade
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: back to the future is gonna decide the winner of
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: the draft.
• 15:10
  Speaker 4: I mean, you might be right, like if you gave
• 15:12
  Speaker 4: up number one and you randomly got Barbie. I don't
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: know if that's actually true or if that could be
• 15:19
  Speaker 4: possible or Maverick right.
• 15:22
  Speaker 2: Mm hmm.
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you could sail away with a win.
• 15:25
  Speaker 2: You could, or if you make an exchange of some
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: sort that gives you, like an extra two hundred or
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: three hundred million dollars mm hmm, that could change the game,
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: especially if the other person then does it and lose
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: it somehow loses money on it.
• 15:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's true. They're like, oh, now I got to
• 15:41
  Speaker 4: do it, and then they lose money. Our final rule
• 15:45
  Speaker 4: of sorts, it's not a real rule, but we like
• 15:50
  Speaker 4: to smack talk.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's part of the game. It's not there's no
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: fouls in this game. Yeah, it's more of a like
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: a suggestion. It's not a rule. It's a philosophy. Yeah.
• 16:02
  Speaker 4: So all that, you know, being said, everything out on
• 16:05
  Speaker 4: the table there. I think it's time to begin the
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: twenty twenty six Summer Movie draft. All right, Patrick, it's time.
• 16:25
  Speaker 4: It's time to get into this. It's time to do
• 16:27
  Speaker 4: the dirty business of drafting our teams. As you know,
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: I have a decision to make as last year's winner,
• 16:34
  Speaker 4: the reigning champion, the holder of the crown, if you will,
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: and that is to decide whether to take the first
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: pick or take picks two and three. And this year
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: I'm going to take picks two and three. It's going
• 16:50
  Speaker 4: to leave you with the number one pick in the draft.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: That's that right there.
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: I wasn't expecting that. Okay, what it's all about.
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: I don't know if I've done this yet. In the
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: times I've won, there hasn't been that many times.
• 17:04
  Speaker 4: I think both times I've taken the number one, they're
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: accumulating they are past two years. See this is me
• 17:11
  Speaker 4: smack talking.
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: See.
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: By the way, for listeners out there, I probably need
• 17:17
  Speaker 4: to say this again. I've said it in past years,
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: but we do have the full list of movies that
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: were our options on our show notes page, like a
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: link to them. And I only say that because you
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: may not be seeing the choices that we have in
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: front of us, but we know what our choices are, Like,
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: We've got a whole list of movies to choose from dozens.
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah. No, that's a good point. If you want to
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: kind of follow along mm hm, you could do that
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: on that page see what movies are available, and you know,
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: kind of yell at home and be like, what why
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: are you picking that now? Yeah?
• 17:51
  Speaker 4: And I also think That's kind of fun because like,
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: if you were listening, you could go on this and
• 17:54
  Speaker 4: see this list, and what would you choose? You know
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: what I mean? Like, I think it would be kind
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: of interesting sting to know what your list looks like,
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: what your team you would draft looks like, because we're
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: just two guys making up this draft, you know, together.
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: So all right, So number one, I think I have
• 18:13
  Speaker 4: to go with Spider Man Brand New Day.
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: Spiders have three life cycles.
• 18:23
  Speaker 4: When between cycles, it can't leave the spier vulnerable to threats.
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: We are faced with a danger but we can't control and.
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: For those Spiders who make it through, it amounts to
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: a kind of reaper.
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: Brand New Day?
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: Is it a brand New Day? Because it seems pretty
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: similar to the other days.
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: Here's the thing, I think there's a lot of people
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: who want to see this movie. It's like probably the
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: strongest box office weapon because Tom Holland back as Peter Parker,
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: Like this is arguable the most reliable superhero left in
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: the superhero universe right now. I think, because like the
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: fatigue is real.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with you on that. We've seen the
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: superhero fatigue that's real. But somehow Spider Man is unaffected. Yeah,
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: he's like his own alley. You know, the animated movies
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: have done well. The last series did well. I think
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: he's kind of in his own lane.
• 19:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, there's something lovable about that character. And they've done
• 19:25
  Speaker 4: a good job with Tom Holland as that character of
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: really giving it some longevity. I think the thing that
• 19:32
  Speaker 4: hurt it in the past was they would restart reboot
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: every single time with a new character. You're like, I
• 19:37
  Speaker 4: do not need to see how Spider Man was created again,
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: you know what I mean? But they tend to fall
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: into that hole, and they didn't have to do that
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: with Tom Holland. I think now they're in a spot
• 19:47
  Speaker 4: where they can keep building off of this storyline.
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I do kind of feel a little bad
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: for him, Like he couldn't really do anything else, so
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: he's just like, I just got to go back to
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: doing Spider Man.
• 19:59
  Speaker 4: I mean, he have that amazing movie with Mark Wahlberg
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: based off a video game.
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: Oh Uncharted.
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: Oh so bad.
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah that was terrible. You know, I can't give you
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: too much flak. As I was debating whether to take
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: the number one or not, this was probably what I
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: would have taken number one. It's debatable between that or
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: what I'm going to take number two, but I think
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: this is it. I think this is gonna probably be
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: the number one movie this summer, though I don't think
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: it's gonna blow up like the last Spider Man did,
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: the one that had like, you know, we're bringing back
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: all the Spider Man from all the movies. That one
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: kind of had a gimmick. This one doesn't quite have that.
• 20:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think it does.
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: But I don't know.
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: There's been some online love chatter things like that, so
• 20:42
  Speaker 4: maybe it'll do good.
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: Maybe it'll surprise us and or not surprise us, because
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: I know it's gonna do great. Yeah, I think this one.
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: I think it's a pretty solid pick. I think people
• 20:50
  Speaker 2: are gonna be on board for Brand New Day With
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: the second pick, though, I'm gonna take Toy Story five.
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: Oh Bunny, there's a package for you to thank you. Hi.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: There, I'm Lily pat Let's play.
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: Extinction not again.
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: I think this is the only other movie that's in
• 21:16
  Speaker 2: competition for possibly being the top movie of the summer.
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: This and Spider Man were the two that I was like,
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: it's probably one of those movies.
• 21:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, there's no doubt that it's gonna do well. But
• 21:28
  Speaker 4: it's like flirt. It's always flirting with this, like fatigue this.
• 21:33
  Speaker 4: You know, people talk about it like do we really
• 21:35
  Speaker 4: need another toy story?
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but then people go see it. There's quite a
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: few movies on this list I'll probably say that about
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: and I'd probably even put Spider Man in that bucket
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: a little bit. But yeah, I would have been fine
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: if they retired Toy story after Toy Story three, which
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: I thought, you know, ended it nicely, but never gonna
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: do that. There's gonna be ten toy stories, you know,
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: at some point we're just gonna keep going until there's
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: no milk left in the teat.
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: You theoretically could tell that story like an anthology because
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: there's always toys, right, Yeah.
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: But then you have no you know, character. They always
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: add in a new character each like this time we
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: got the iPad or the tablet of whatever sort. It
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: is the electronic, the dangerous electronic who's killed toys, which
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: is an interesting angle, but you know, you got to
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: have your central characters for people to grab onto.
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: True, all right, so what's then what's your thursions you
• 22:29
  Speaker 4: get this?
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: So third pick, I'm going you know, in a different direction.
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: Maybe kind of a surprise here. I don't know. I'm
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: going with the Odyssey.
• 22:40
  Speaker 4: Who's looking after your wife? And Simon?
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: Do you see my dad is coming home.
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: And us.
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: Bringing it all? Christopher Nolan's much hyped.
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: Your love for christ for Nolan is a real thing, just.
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: So you know. Weird though it's not I mean, it
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: isn't this draft because I picked Oppenheimer over Barbie, which
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: some would say was questionable. Yeah, since it made half
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: the money, even though it made a lot of money.
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: But I don't even love his movies that much. I'm
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: always interested in his movies, but I don't know that
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: I love them. But this one has a lot going
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: for it. Locked up Imax for a few weeks, which,
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: by the way, Spider Man is not getting because the
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: Odyssey is gonna have him locked down. Yeah, and it's
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: got every actor in Hollywood in it, and it's coming off.
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: You know, Nolan doing Oppenheimer, he's like a brand name now,
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: he's like a Spielberg.
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: The only thing that could hurt this though. It's a
• 23:38
  Speaker 4: three hour epic based on the Odyssey. Yeah, Greek mythology,
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: the names of the characters, it's gonna be hard for
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: people to talk about this because it feels a lot
• 23:49
  Speaker 4: like a literature assignment. When you go to a movie
• 23:52
  Speaker 4: like this, you know what I mean, you got to
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: think about, Okay, who is this, what's the what's their thing?
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: You know, because you know you're gonna have the people
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: who are very maybe educated, worldly in their literature exploits,
• 24:07
  Speaker 4: you know, like the things I've read, And then there's
• 24:09
  Speaker 4: gonna be people who will be like, I don't what
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: you know.
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: I don't think people are gonna think about it that way.
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: I think they're just gonna be like battle scenes, big screens.
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah that's true. I mean there are gonna be those
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: who go to see that. I want to see it
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: in Imax because he shot this thing for Imax.
• 24:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so I don't know how big it's gonna get exactly.
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: There's probably other movies that'll do better, but this is
• 24:31
  Speaker 2: one I wanted to grab because I feel like it's
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: got some potential to blow up. Yeah.
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: Plus you can say that you I think you've had
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: every Christopher Nolan movie since he started making movies.
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: I'm trying to think what else besides Oppenheimer if I've
• 24:46
  Speaker 2: ever grabbed one. Don't did I have Dunkirk'?
• 24:48
  Speaker 4: I think you did? Did I? I think you did
• 24:50
  Speaker 4: have Dunkirk.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: Yes, I'm telling you you had tons of Christopher Nolan
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: movies and you're all right. I'm in the Nolan though.
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: What can I tell you?
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: Maybe you could have him on the cast, you and him, buds.
• 25:01
  Speaker 4: I'm the longtime supporter, all right. So then my pick finally, Yeah,
• 25:07
  Speaker 4: you're back.
• 25:07
  Speaker 2: You're back.
• 25:08
  Speaker 4: I made this mistake long ago. I talk about this
• 25:11
  Speaker 4: on every summer draft since I made the mistake. But
• 25:14
  Speaker 4: I need a kid's movie, so I'm gonna do minions
• 25:17
  Speaker 4: and monsters.
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: Shaves. You have a real gift for filmmaking.
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: I'm Gary Orkham, Oliver Magna Ekabad the Deceiver, but my
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: friends just call me Goomy for sure. I know the
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: perfect monsters for your moving Let's go. You love those minions,
• 25:39
  Speaker 4: I you know I don't like the minions. But here's
• 25:42
  Speaker 4: the benefit of this movie this year for me is
• 25:45
  Speaker 4: that it does couple nicely with one of my favorite things,
• 25:49
  Speaker 4: which are monsters. The agency monster is unlimited. I mean,
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: you can't get better than that, this pairing. So anyway,
• 25:56
  Speaker 4: I think it should be fun. The Minions seem like
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: they make cash all the time. I don't know why
• 26:01
  Speaker 4: those little guys make cash, but they do. You know,
• 26:04
  Speaker 4: you talk about me and Nolan, I feel like you
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: and the Minions. Anytime there's a Minions movie out, you're
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: on it. Uh huh.
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: And I remember it was like the Minions Rise of Guru.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: I'm like, there's no way anybody's going to see that,
• 26:16
  Speaker 2: and then it made like three hundred million dollars. Then
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: another one came out and made like three hundred million dollars.
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: There's no doubt it's gonna make money. But you know,
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: exactly like the ceiling of a Minions everybody's gonna go.
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: They come out Fourth of July weekend, but they're mostly
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: for like, you know, little kids and people throwing bananas.
• 26:33
  Speaker 4: If there's any one takeaway for picking a Minions movie,
• 26:37
  Speaker 4: it's that you don't pick it because you respect cinema.
• 26:41
  Speaker 4: You pick it because you respect capitalism. Yeah, you respect
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: the money. I mean, it's solid. You can't deny that
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: it's got a brand. You know, people are coming for it.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So I'm up on the fifth pick, and with
• 26:54
  Speaker 2: this one, I don't have to do something that pains
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: me that I don't want to do you're talking about
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: you know, you're talking about the Minion. Yeah, in capitalism,
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to go with Moana live action. Okay,
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: beyond the.
• 27:08
  Speaker 3: Out reef an evil done, this has found us fine, MAUI.
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: We stole the heart MOI.
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: I don't know if I told myself I would never
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: pick a live action remake, but in my heart it
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: hurts to take one of these Disney live action movies,
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: especially one of these that I think this one looks
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: pretty rough, but I think people will also go see it.
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 27:37
  Speaker 4: I mean we've talked about this over the years, Like
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: the live action stuff, it feels like they shouldn't do
• 27:42
  Speaker 4: any money, and then they do lots of money. Always
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: there was one there was an exception, I think to
• 27:49
  Speaker 4: this one year where something didn't do quite as well
• 27:52
  Speaker 4: as it probably should have. I can't remember what it was.
• 27:54
  Speaker 4: But then you get this Moana's beloved. So I have
• 27:58
  Speaker 4: a feeling people are gonna just gonna go to this one,
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: maybe multiple times. Because of the songs.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the music at least by this like
• 28:07
  Speaker 2: recent generation. I know when my kids were growing up,
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: this was like one of my favorites. It had like
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: the best music, and to see a trash like this unfortunate.
• 28:15
  Speaker 2: I was really hoping with the last pick you would
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: actually take Mowana and then I could take Minions because
• 28:19
  Speaker 2: to me, they're kind of interchangeable and how much they're
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: gonna make. Yeah, maybe Mowana has a higher ceiling. I
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: don't know. Maybe I'm just have a bad outlook on
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: it because I'm like, ah, looks awful. But I agree.
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: I think it's just it's gonna print money.
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it does have a higher ceiling, though,
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: I will say that about it because kids know it
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: and parents know it.
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: And the songs.
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: Everyone knows the songs to some degree, you know, even
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: if you don't know all the lyrics. You know, like
• 28:46
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry, you know.
• 28:48
  Speaker 2: You're welcome, You're welcome, You're welcome. I don't know.
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: See, I clearly am not the audience. Yeah, yeah, you'll
• 28:57
  Speaker 4: be their opening day. You're like, oh, the rock looks
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: so good that wig.
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: I do like the rock. I do like me some rock.
• 29:03
  Speaker 2: I think he's a good guy, all right, so tough, tough, tough, tough.
• 29:06
  Speaker 4: Okay, then I am gonna go with disclosure day. People
• 29:14
  Speaker 4: have a right to know the truth.
• 29:16
  Speaker 2: It belongs to seven billion people. What is it?
• 29:22
  Speaker 4: You won't believe me if I told you so.
• 29:24
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna show you.
• 29:29
  Speaker 4: What are you gonna do? Full disclosure to the whole
• 29:33
  Speaker 4: world all what? Hmmm? This is Steven Spielberg. He's returning
• 29:41
  Speaker 4: to sci fi for this movie. I mean, I think
• 29:46
  Speaker 4: it's gonna be a strong, strong, strong effort at the
• 29:51
  Speaker 4: box office. It's about an alien invasion, it's a thriller.
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: It's humanity's response to some event. Yeah, it's still pretty
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: m They've kept a lot of it under wraps. We've
• 30:02
  Speaker 4: gotten a little bit of it.
• 30:03
  Speaker 2: The trailers have been all right. I'm very hopeful for
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: this one. I hope it's big. I hope it's great.
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: Can't help a wonder if you took it a little
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: too early. Is it gonna make this much money? I
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: worry that people don't think about Spielberg anymore like we
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: think about Spielberg.
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you might be.
• 30:18
  Speaker 2: You could be right at that.
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: I think it definitely shows my age that I'm like
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: disclosure day Steven Spielberg. But I will say this, Steven
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: Spielberg isn't the reason why this movie looks good to me.
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: This movie looks interesting and it's kind of crazy weird,
• 30:34
  Speaker 4: and like I liked the original trailer.
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: I was like, what is this? This this speaks my interest.
• 30:40
  Speaker 2: You know that's true. People are into aliens and conspiracies
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: right now.
• 30:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah, And I feel like Emily Blunt everything she touches,
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: I mean, Quiet Place, all those movies, not Jungle Cruise
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: or whatever it was.
• 30:54
  Speaker 2: No, not Jungle Cruise with the Rock. Yeah, the one
• 30:57
  Speaker 2: I paid like thirty dollars to rent at home during COVID.
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: Heank's great.
• 31:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, So yeah, Disclosure Day. I think it's a winner
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: Winter Chicken Dinner.
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: I'm hopeful. I'm hopeful, even though it's on your team.
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: I want that one to win, all right. With the
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: next pick, the seventh pick, going with another alien thing,
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: you could say, I mean, maybe this is aliens, okay,
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: talking about the Mandalorian and Grogu.
• 31:27
  Speaker 4: Thanksters, more criminals, long live the Empire.
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: We'll take out every bad guy in your.
• 31:34
  Speaker 4: Deck of cards.
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: This isn't about revenge, it's about preventing another war.
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: So this one, I don't know. I think it's worth
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: taking a shot here. With the seventh pick, I think it's.
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: Gonna make a couple hundred million. But I know people
• 31:57
  Speaker 4: are not, you know, huge on Star Wars right now.
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: I know it's not at its peak. Yeah, but I
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: think people still love the Mandalorian. I think that's got
• 32:05
  Speaker 4: some love. I don't know if the TV showed a
• 32:07
  Speaker 4: movie thing is confusing to people or will turn people
• 32:10
  Speaker 4: off from coming to the theater, but I think this
• 32:13
  Speaker 4: one is good for at least some money. I don't
• 32:15
  Speaker 4: think it's going to be like Star Wars's biggest movie ever.
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 32:19
  Speaker 4: I mean there's like a part of me though wonders
• 32:21
  Speaker 4: is this gonna be like The Diamond and the Rough,
• 32:24
  Speaker 4: where we don't envision it doing really well and then
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: it does insane numbers because maybe this sort of lightning
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: in a bottle because the Mandalorian show, people loved it.
• 32:36
  Speaker 2: It's good. It's one of the better Star Wars things
• 32:39
  Speaker 2: that's come out.
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's kind of started them on this track of
• 32:42
  Speaker 4: like telling stories that were original outside of the main characters.
• 32:47
  Speaker 4: And yeah, I have this feeling that like it's gonna
• 32:50
  Speaker 4: be one of those situations where there's gonna be all
• 32:53
  Speaker 4: these Star Wars fans that come out, but like this
• 32:55
  Speaker 4: is the greatest thing. And the people who just come
• 32:57
  Speaker 4: out to see gro goopb yoda. Yeah, like the cuteness factor.
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: It could be kind of like Guardians of the Galaxy
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: where you're like, what is this and then it turned
• 33:08
  Speaker 2: you're like, oh, this is way better than I thought
• 33:10
  Speaker 2: it would be. And then you know, it gets kind
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: of that little bit of water mouth going. And it's
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: got prime Memorial Day weekend opening, which has always been
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: a good one for you know, kicking off the summer.
• 33:22
  Speaker 2: You get you make a little extra money there. I know.
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: I think Mission Impossible was in there last year and
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: didn't quite set the world up fire, but still made
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: like two hundred million dollars, and I think if it
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: does that here, I'm pretty happy with that. Yeah.
• 33:32
  Speaker 4: And given that there's a flood of Star Wars stuff
• 33:36
  Speaker 4: that has been on Disney. Plus this is technically, I
• 33:40
  Speaker 4: think the first Star Wars movie in seven years, so
• 33:45
  Speaker 4: this might be something that it has going for it.
• 33:48
  Speaker 4: All Right, So well, then you know, I guess I
• 33:50
  Speaker 4: have to pick the other alien. I'll do super Girl.
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: Where'd You're not gonna find your people? Yeah, well that's
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: the same clerk.
• 34:00
  Speaker 4: I have no people.
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: It's kind of the Yellow Hills immerses my Innocence Company.
• 34:14
  Speaker 4: Could it do money? I think it'll have money thrown
• 34:17
  Speaker 4: at it a little bit because of James Gunn. There's
• 34:20
  Speaker 4: gonna be the lovers and the haters of James Gunn
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: stuff in the DC universe and blah blah blah. But
• 34:25
  Speaker 4: I think, you know, to maybe get a little love
• 34:27
  Speaker 4: because of the Superman. I don't know, we'll see. I
• 34:31
  Speaker 4: don't know.
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: This one's a big question mark for me. Obviously, Superman
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: did really good last year. I think you had that
• 34:36
  Speaker 2: one last year made like three hundred million dollars. I
• 34:39
  Speaker 2: definitely don't see this doing that. The trailers have looked
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: all right, this is like what you were just talking
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: about with the Mandalorian.
• 34:47
  Speaker 4: Though.
• 34:47
  Speaker 2: I almost think people are like kind of already dismissing it,
• 34:51
  Speaker 2: and maybe it'll come out and turn out to be like, oh,
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: that's actually a really fun movie and then it does
• 34:56
  Speaker 2: better than expected. But right now, I just feel like
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: it's not even positioned to succeed that well. I don't
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: know if it's been marketed that well.
• 35:02
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: Maybe the movie will turn out better than I'm perceiving
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: it to be, but I just don't know, And is
• 35:08
  Speaker 2: a too soon after Superman? I know that was the intent,
• 35:11
  Speaker 2: but yeah, I.
• 35:12
  Speaker 4: Mean it's supposed to and I mean it does open
• 35:15
  Speaker 4: in June twenty sixth, so it's got plenty of time
• 35:18
  Speaker 4: to accumulate for the year if if it does do anything,
• 35:22
  Speaker 4: which is my hope it does something.
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I don't know. We'll see see if it flies.
• 35:28
  Speaker 4: It does have the dog too, right, yeah, the cuteness
• 35:31
  Speaker 4: factor of the dog crypto.
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: People like the dog all right. With the ninth pick,
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna go comedy, a rare comedy because they don't
• 35:40
  Speaker 2: come out anymore. Scary movie.
• 35:43
  Speaker 4: We beg there's a serial killer on the loop killer today.
• 35:51
  Speaker 4: I had been preparing for this for years. Hello Mother,
• 35:57
  Speaker 4: dance again, miss every time, be sure to thank you.
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: That's a scary pick. It's like part six, the six
• 36:06
  Speaker 2: scary movie to come out there. They're just calling it
• 36:08
  Speaker 2: scary movie, which I think is a good choice. These
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: movies that parody, you know, horror films. We haven't had
• 36:14
  Speaker 2: one since twenty thirteen. Wayne's brothers involved. They're back. We
• 36:19
  Speaker 2: have a lot of new horror movies to make fun of.
• 36:22
  Speaker 2: I think this will find an audience. Obviously, the jokes
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: if you've watched any of the trailers, real dumb, but
• 36:28
  Speaker 2: I think people go for that. I think they'll be
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: in the mood for that. It's the premise of it.
• 36:32
  Speaker 2: It's like the Naked Gun, right. The jokes are dumb,
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: but they're they're sort of funny in that way. I
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: feel like people may want to remember scary movie more
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: than they want to buy tickets for scary movies.
• 36:43
  Speaker 4: Nostalgia is good, but I don't know if this movie
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: will do great because of that.
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: It's just, yeah, we've had these bringbacks though, where if
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: it's over a certain point, you know, if it's like
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: from the two thousand around there, and then you bring
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: it back and it's been like fifteen plus years, seems
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: to do alright. Yeah, we'll see how it plays. The
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: comedy part is almost what worries me more. We just
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: haven't had a big comedy hit in a while. Yeah,
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: that is true.
• 37:11
  Speaker 4: It's pretty brutal. You know, you want to pick a comedy,
• 37:14
  Speaker 4: you want to do that. I have one that I
• 37:16
  Speaker 4: thought about, and then I'm like, I don't know if
• 37:19
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna so I may or may not still pick
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: this but I'm just like comedy is.
• 37:24
  Speaker 2: It's a tough one for me because of it. Yeah,
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: you probably do the same thing too, where it's like,
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: rather than look at your picks almost individually, you look
• 37:32
  Speaker 2: at it as like a whole. Yeah, like, how am
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: I diversifying my portfolio? Here?
• 37:37
  Speaker 4: Mm hmm my next pick? Since you picked that, does
• 37:41
  Speaker 4: not feel like I've diversified it because I'm gonna pick.
• 37:44
  Speaker 4: I think I'm picking Masters of the Universe.
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: Oh no, why did you send me away? I wanted
• 37:53
  Speaker 2: you to be safe, so they send you to a
• 37:56
  Speaker 2: place and that they never find yet. I know it
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: sounds crazy, but that sort is kind of showed me
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: the way open up.
• 38:12
  Speaker 4: I know it's a very dangerous, dangerous, dangerous pick. I
• 38:17
  Speaker 4: don't really know how else to say it, other than
• 38:19
  Speaker 4: part of me thinks maybe, just maybe this has some
• 38:23
  Speaker 4: of that nostalgia and the fans of Masters in the Universe,
• 38:27
  Speaker 4: and it's like comic book stuff, you know, It's like
• 38:29
  Speaker 4: why does Supergirl do numbers? Why does Spider Man do numbers?
• 38:33
  Speaker 4: It's kind of like built in fandom. So I'm hoping
• 38:36
  Speaker 4: for that a little bit.
• 38:37
  Speaker 3: This one.
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: I'm glad you took it. It was a stay away
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: from me. I'm like, this is with Supergirl and the
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: Mandalori and I'm like, could there be something surprising here
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: that kind of grabs people? But on the surface of it,
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: I'm like, this is a big time bomb. Yeah, this
• 38:52
  Speaker 2: movie's gonna this isn't Gonnahiroshima. I mean it might, but
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: it also might have the power of Gray Skull, So
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: I might have the power if you pull this one off.
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: You got something here that would be a big surprise
• 39:05
  Speaker 2: of the summer. If people are like, it's actually pretty
• 39:07
  Speaker 2: good and it's different and it's funny, and.
• 39:10
  Speaker 4: You know, everybody's just gonna go crazy about all of
• 39:13
  Speaker 4: the different aspects of this movie and it's going to
• 39:15
  Speaker 4: become the Barbie of the Year. Yeah, Oh that would
• 39:19
  Speaker 4: be great, because Barbie won me some awards that year.
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: Barbie did well for you, Barbie did well for you.
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: I would be surprised if this be Kate Masters of
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: the Universe becomes the Barbie.
• 39:29
  Speaker 4: That's what I'm hoping for.
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: But you know, hey, at number ten, this is the
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: area where you know, you start taking shots.
• 39:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I am taking a shot there. Yeah.
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: So I think with this pick, there's a few things
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: I'm looking at here.
• 39:41
  Speaker 4: I got two picks left kind of in an area
• 39:44
  Speaker 4: of movies that I look at and I'm like that
• 39:46
  Speaker 4: they're probably gonna make close to the same amount of money.
• 39:48
  Speaker 2: So I'm looking for something that maybe has a shot.
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: You know, as we're talking about taking shots, something I
• 39:52
  Speaker 2: could like maybe break out a little bit. I'm gonna
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: go with the end of Oak Street.
• 40:03
  Speaker 4: Our whole street.
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: Has moved. Oh my god, run something. You shared the trailer,
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: but I was like, oh, that looks pretty interesting. JJ
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: Abrams is like a producer. There's some interesting actors involved.
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: Dan Hathaway, Ewan McGregor has a little bit of like
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: a Spielberg vibe to it. So I think this one
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: could drive people. And I think the marketing has been
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: pretty good so far behind it, and it's an August release.
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: In August is kind of a dead zone.
• 40:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm kind of psyched about this movie. I think
• 40:38
  Speaker 4: the movie looks interesting. I don't know how well it's
• 40:41
  Speaker 4: gonna do. But again, you know, this is what picks
• 40:43
  Speaker 4: six for you. Yeah, so it makes sense that it
• 40:47
  Speaker 4: goes here on your list. But worth the shot, Yeah,
• 40:50
  Speaker 4: I think it's worth a shot. It's based off the
• 40:52
  Speaker 4: book right off a book.
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: I don't know. Is it sounds like a book title?
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: Oh no, it's an original original story. Yeah, sci fi
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: thriller written and directed by David Robert Mitchell, not based
• 41:05
  Speaker 2: on a book.
• 41:06
  Speaker 4: All right, So I need a horror movie on my list,
• 41:10
  Speaker 4: So I am going to go with There's actually a
• 41:13
  Speaker 4: lot of horror movies to choose from this year. I'm
• 41:15
  Speaker 4: gonna go with Evil Dead Burn.
• 41:20
  Speaker 3: We found you, William, my sweet boy.
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: I were given anything for us to be together again.
• 41:37
  Speaker 3: Grandfather believed the devil would return if anyone read from
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: the Book.
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: Of the Dead.
• 41:46
  Speaker 4: Will Evil Dead come back? Will it do numbers for me?
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 41:54
  Speaker 4: The last one did decently well, and it didn't come
• 41:56
  Speaker 4: out in the summer. It came out I don't know
• 41:58
  Speaker 4: what time of year, but it may be the spring
• 42:00
  Speaker 4: or fall, and it made almost seventy million dollars. That
• 42:03
  Speaker 4: was Evil Dead Rise twenty twenty three. Yeah, the trailer
• 42:08
  Speaker 4: actually looks pretty good.
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, this was one of my choices I was considering.
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: I like the Evil Dead series, and I wonder, I'm
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: like putting this out in summer. I'm like, could it
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: tick up a little bit or is the seventy million.
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: Is that kind of the how much these movies can make.
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: I don't know. July is pretty open for horror, so
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: that might it could own like that month as far
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: as like horror movies go with horror fans. Mm hmm.
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: I'll be happy if it does numbers. Sure, all right.
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: So for my last pick, remember we have the bonus
• 42:41
  Speaker 2: what we call the indie equalizer, where you can get
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: three times the box office if you choose a movie
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: from an independent studio.
• 42:49
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna do just that, and I'm gonna take a
• 42:52
  Speaker 4: twenty four's movie back rooms, I.
• 42:58
  Speaker 2: Found something in the store. Okay, what did you find about?
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: A place?
• 43:12
  Speaker 4: We hell? Pull me out? Pull me out?
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: It comes out pretty soon, not Memorial Day weekend, but
• 43:19
  Speaker 2: the weekend after this one. I think has a lot
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: going for it. One. It's a twenty four. I feel
• 43:25
  Speaker 2: like they're just pretty good at marketing. I like the
• 43:28
  Speaker 2: movies they released. You know, for an indie studio, they
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: do pretty well. They've kind of cracked the code a
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: little bit. But this is also based on kind of
• 43:36
  Speaker 2: like a viral internet video myth something like that. They
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: got the guy who actually like made the stuff online
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: to make the movie. So I think you're gonna bring
• 43:46
  Speaker 2: some fans over from that, and the story, you know,
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: I think is also kind of interesting. We're gonna pull
• 43:52
  Speaker 2: people in, especially younger generation people trapped in an endless
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: maze of liminal spaces. Liminal spaces are kind of like
• 44:00
  Speaker 2: a trendy thing online, so it's like endless. You can't
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: get you just keep going from room to room and
• 44:06
  Speaker 2: you can't get out. So I think there could be
• 44:08
  Speaker 2: something here, especially if it's well reviewed or it's good.
• 44:11
  Speaker 2: But even if it's not, I think some horror fans
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: will come out for this one.
• 44:15
  Speaker 4: I think it's interesting that you chose that movie, which
• 44:18
  Speaker 4: I think looks really good. In that whole description of
• 44:22
  Speaker 4: why you chose it, you didn't choose to say the
• 44:26
  Speaker 4: actor's name.
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: Honestly, I don't even know who's in it.
• 44:30
  Speaker 4: I want you to attempt to say his name, because
• 44:33
  Speaker 4: I oh.
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: Chew to tell a gedaphour? Is that how you say it?
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: I think, so chew to tell it? What chew to
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: tell a gedaphour? He's been around that guy.
• 44:44
  Speaker 4: I know that. I know that he's been around I
• 44:46
  Speaker 4: like him, but I don't I don't know if I
• 44:48
  Speaker 4: was saying it right. But in all the years that
• 44:52
  Speaker 4: I have seen him in movies, I have failed to
• 44:55
  Speaker 4: remember how to say his name. And that to me
• 44:59
  Speaker 4: is like real hard because when people say, hey, who's
• 45:02
  Speaker 4: in that, I'm always like, well, you know the there's
• 45:05
  Speaker 4: a guy he plays in this and he plays in that.
• 45:07
  Speaker 4: And they'll be like, oh, I think I know who
• 45:09
  Speaker 4: you're talking about, but I can't say their names.
• 45:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so you're saying you think it's gonna hurt the movie.
• 45:15
  Speaker 4: No, I don't think it would hurt the movie. I
• 45:17
  Speaker 4: think A twenty four honestly, I think the movie will
• 45:19
  Speaker 4: do really well.
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: But what about the other star We'reanaa renz Vas.
• 45:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, this is gonna hurt the movie for sure. If
• 45:28
  Speaker 4: both stars. You can't say, that's so bad, because.
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: You know, that's just like such a American.
• 45:37
  Speaker 4: It's American. Yeah, it's a very American thing to say.
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: I think it's why stars, you know, in the old days,
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: you change their name to something really simple.
• 45:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I really do think. I mean not
• 45:49
  Speaker 4: that I think that that's truly what it was. I
• 45:52
  Speaker 4: mean sometimes maybe to hide their identity too, but yeah, yeah,
• 45:57
  Speaker 4: it could be anyway.
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: All right, last pick, my last pick.
• 46:02
  Speaker 4: You know, I'm gonna do for the indie equalizer, and
• 46:07
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna pick the other A twenty four movie. I'm
• 46:09
  Speaker 4: gonna pick the Death of Robin Hood.
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: People speak of Robin Hood, tell his stories.
• 46:21
  Speaker 1: As he was not a heero, you were a murderous
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: brigand Wave one monstrous.
• 46:32
  Speaker 4: I am the outlaw. I love when they tell a
• 46:36
  Speaker 4: story from a totally different like this, you know, something
• 46:40
  Speaker 4: that is unexpected, and the Death of Robin Hood feels
• 46:44
  Speaker 4: that way. It's very strange in that way, but also
• 46:49
  Speaker 4: kind of exciting. I'm kind of excited about it.
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm interested. I don't know. I don't know what
• 46:55
  Speaker 2: this one will do. I think it looks it looks
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: pretty dark. It does. It does look dark. So it's
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: not an upbeat summer movie from the director of Pig.
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: Did you see Peg with Nicholas Cage. Yeah, that's pretty good.
• 47:06
  Speaker 2: And this is the thing, like, you know, it's a
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: good director.
• 47:09
  Speaker 4: It seems like it's got a good studio behind it.
• 47:12
  Speaker 4: So hopefully, you know, it's got some of that indie love.
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Two A twenty four is when does that come out?
• 47:19
  Speaker 4: June nineteenth? So yours comes out May, so they'll be
• 47:24
  Speaker 4: kind of close. They will be kind of close. Yeah,
• 47:27
  Speaker 4: there's a lot of movies out this summer though, there's
• 47:28
  Speaker 4: a lot of options.
• 47:29
  Speaker 2: There are a lot of options.
• 47:33
  Speaker 4: And I'm not just saying that because they're making another
• 47:36
  Speaker 4: Jackass movie. I'm just saying there's a lot of options. Oh,
• 47:39
  Speaker 4: I did kind of think about Jackass. Well, what is
• 47:42
  Speaker 4: it lasting best?
• 47:43
  Speaker 2: Too?
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: Ugh?
• 47:45
  Speaker 4: I I can't. I just on principle alone, I couldn't
• 47:48
  Speaker 4: pick it. So you know, it's probably gonna do well anytime.
• 47:51
  Speaker 4: My principles get it in the way. Yeah, your principles
• 47:54
  Speaker 4: are the worst.
• 47:55
  Speaker 2: Well, what do you think overall? What do you think
• 47:57
  Speaker 2: about your team? How do you feel? What's your overall?
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: You look kind of down your board.
• 48:01
  Speaker 4: I mean I feel okay, but I don't feel great.
• 48:04
  Speaker 4: I might have made a blunder with the Toy Story.
• 48:06
  Speaker 4: I should have probably picked Toy Story five.
• 48:09
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure.
• 48:09
  Speaker 4: Will it do better than Spider Man? I think it might.
• 48:12
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm kind of like mixed on those.
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: It's kind of why I gave up the number one pick.
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: I wasn't sure. Yeah, well that was part of the reason.
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: The other part of the reason was I felt like
• 48:21
  Speaker 2: I was trapped these family movies. I felt like I
• 48:24
  Speaker 2: was kind of trapped by them. Yeah, in the sense
• 48:27
  Speaker 2: that you know they're gonna make money, but I didn't
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: want to like be in a position where I'm like
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: taking all of them.
• 48:32
  Speaker 4: I agree, and I like my top three. I'm really
• 48:35
  Speaker 4: happy with my top three. I think they're gonna do well.
• 48:37
  Speaker 4: Disclosure Day is my wild card, which I'm not. I mean,
• 48:41
  Speaker 4: I really hope that this movie is gonna do what
• 48:44
  Speaker 4: I wanted to do, but if it doesn't, I'm kind
• 48:46
  Speaker 4: of screwed.
• 48:47
  Speaker 2: I feel like all the movies from like six through
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: twelve are really kind of the because I feel like
• 48:54
  Speaker 2: one through five are gonna they're all gonna make money.
• 48:58
  Speaker 2: Six through twelve is where it's gonna be decided. Disclosure Day,
• 49:01
  Speaker 2: the Mandalorian, Supergirl, Scary Movie, Masters of the Universe. How
• 49:05
  Speaker 2: much money of those movies gonna make? You know, because
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: those are the ones I feel like could bomb or
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: could make three hundred million dollars. Yeah, this happens to.
• 49:13
  Speaker 4: Me every year where I'm like, oh, I probably should
• 49:15
  Speaker 4: have taken this over that, like Mowana. Mowana is probably
• 49:19
  Speaker 4: gonna do great numbers, and I technically had an opportunity
• 49:22
  Speaker 4: to take Bowana, but I didn't, you know what I mean?
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I had the same feeling with it, though I
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: was as part of me that's like, stay away from Mowana.
• 49:30
  Speaker 2: I like don't want maai, you know what I mean? Yeah,
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: watch that end up being the number one movie of
• 49:35
  Speaker 2: the summer.
• 49:36
  Speaker 4: Well, that brings us to the Wick Award predictions. So
• 49:40
  Speaker 4: what's the amount of money that you predict your team
• 49:43
  Speaker 4: more before bonuses? Before bonuses? Of course, let's see here.
• 49:49
  Speaker 4: Let me just crunch the numbers real quick. I'm gonna
• 49:53
  Speaker 4: go with one point five billion. Holy moully, you're looking
• 49:58
  Speaker 4: for that real high? It seems high, all right, one
• 50:00
  Speaker 4: point five billion.
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's probably too high. I'm probably gonna go over.
• 50:05
  Speaker 2: I should I should have gotten lower, but I'm already in.
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: I'm in too deep.
• 50:09
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna go eight seventy five, eight seventy five. I'm
• 50:13
  Speaker 4: gonna go a little lower because I have a feeling I'm.
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: Probably gonna go over. That was that was real high.
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: Immediately regret it. One point five billion, so much?
• 50:24
  Speaker 4: Eight hundred and seventy five million. Still, you know, that's nothing.
• 50:27
  Speaker 4: We like, it's not hitting a billion mark, which I think.
• 50:30
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's before bonuses, So I mean, I'm hoping
• 50:34
  Speaker 4: for a bonus on the death of Robinhood.
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: But I don't know. So last year I predicted one
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: point four billion, My actual was one point five seven eight.
• 50:43
  Speaker 2: So it's possible you last year predicted, oh, this is interesting,
• 50:47
  Speaker 2: one billion and forty five million, one point zero four
• 50:51
  Speaker 2: five and your actual was eight hundred and thirty eight.
• 50:56
  Speaker 4: See, so I'm I'm getting closer to realizing that I
• 51:00
  Speaker 4: might lose.
• 51:04
  Speaker 2: I think you'll be much higher this year, but that
• 51:07
  Speaker 2: going over rule, I should have been a little more conservative.
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: But you know, I'm going by my going by my numbers.
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: My numbers guy was like.
• 51:14
  Speaker 4: This is it.
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: This is what you gotta do.
• 51:17
  Speaker 4: This is what your accountant told you. Your CPA does
• 51:20
  Speaker 4: he have a CPA disease?
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: CPA's got a CPA. So yeah, we'll see what happens
• 51:25
  Speaker 2: with those. It's a good bonus there for the person
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: who gets it. We can both get it, though, right
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: or is this one person? How does this work? I
• 51:33
  Speaker 2: should know? No, only one team, the team that comes closest,
• 51:36
  Speaker 2: So only one team gets it.
• 51:37
  Speaker 4: Here is so far away. I don't even have to
• 51:39
  Speaker 4: worry unless I knock myself out. All right, Patrick, it's
• 51:44
  Speaker 4: been a journey. But before we wrap up, what's you know?
• 51:47
  Speaker 4: This is the question we always ask, what's the one
• 51:49
  Speaker 4: summer movie you're most excited for? What's the top of
• 51:52
  Speaker 4: your list this first year. I'm excited for a lot
• 51:54
  Speaker 4: of the movies on this list, both of our lists.
• 51:57
  Speaker 4: The easy answer for me is Disclosure Day. It's my
• 52:01
  Speaker 4: cup of tea as people know me, you know who
• 52:04
  Speaker 4: have listened to the podcast, and I can only hope
• 52:07
  Speaker 4: that it withstands my own internal hype, you know.
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 52:11
  Speaker 4: But number two, if you're just saying Patrick, go beyond
• 52:14
  Speaker 4: what your like comfort zone is, I'd say something a
• 52:17
  Speaker 4: little less mainstream, like the Death of Robin Hood. I
• 52:20
  Speaker 4: really am also looking forward to backrooms. Maybe both those
• 52:25
  Speaker 4: A twenty four's look really just right in that sweet
• 52:29
  Speaker 4: spot of things that I think look like unique stories
• 52:34
  Speaker 4: that we've been talking about craving so much. What do
• 52:37
  Speaker 4: you think of those?
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: I think I'm on the same page with a lot
• 52:40
  Speaker 2: of those. That number one is probably also Disclosure Day.
• 52:43
  Speaker 2: It's the one I just you know, has a lot
• 52:46
  Speaker 2: of the things I like. I'm a a Spielberg guy.
• 52:48
  Speaker 2: I'm interested in everything he does. I want to see
• 52:50
  Speaker 2: him return to like aliens and outer space and fascination.
• 52:54
  Speaker 2: This is the first movie I think he wrote like
• 52:56
  Speaker 2: a long long time.
• 52:58
  Speaker 4: Which tells you something like the fact that he's attached
• 53:01
  Speaker 4: to this movie in this way. I feel like it's
• 53:04
  Speaker 4: gonna be good because of that. Right, Yeah, he's invested,
• 53:07
  Speaker 4: he's into it. Yeah, this isn't a like I just
• 53:11
  Speaker 4: kind of like put my stamp on there and it's
• 53:14
  Speaker 4: just some other movie. He's in it.
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: Another guy's in it to win it is, you know,
• 53:18
  Speaker 2: Christopher Nolan. The Odyssey is probably another thing. I'm like
• 53:22
  Speaker 2: just so curious, like what is this thing gonna be.
• 53:24
  Speaker 2: It's gonna be an odyssey, It's gonna be an odyssey,
• 53:27
  Speaker 2: But what is it gonna be? Like is he makes
• 53:29
  Speaker 2: spectacles and he makes movies to be seen in movie theaters.
• 53:32
  Speaker 2: So I'm just real curious to see kind of what
• 53:35
  Speaker 2: he comes out with. Plus, you know the guy who's
• 53:37
  Speaker 2: like his last movie was a hit, he won a
• 53:39
  Speaker 2: bunch of awards. It's like, here's a blank check, go
• 53:42
  Speaker 2: do anything you want. It's usually when people go a
• 53:44
  Speaker 2: little nuts, so I want to see what he throws
• 53:46
  Speaker 2: together there. And then on the indie side, I mentioned
• 53:49
  Speaker 2: the invite that's probably my age twenty four. That's the
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: one I'm like, I like the people who are in this.
• 53:54
  Speaker 2: It has one of those plots where you're like, where
• 53:56
  Speaker 2: does this go? I want to see what happens here?
• 53:58
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm in for those.
• 54:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, the trailers are doing some work this year making
• 54:04
  Speaker 4: you interested in something. You don't even know what the
• 54:07
  Speaker 4: story is, but you're kind of curious as to, like
• 54:09
  Speaker 4: you said, where the story goes or what's the ending
• 54:12
  Speaker 4: of this. I'd like to know. Yeah, nice diversity of
• 54:16
  Speaker 4: product this year. I think we have some pretty evenly
• 54:19
  Speaker 4: matched teams. I don't know, we'll see.
• 54:21
  Speaker 2: Will it come down to the trade back to the
• 54:24
  Speaker 2: future at the end of the summer.
• 54:26
  Speaker 4: I mean, I do have the number one pick, So technically,
• 54:28
  Speaker 4: if I lost the draft and I'm like, hey, I'm
• 54:32
  Speaker 4: just gonna go for it. A spider Man makes like
• 54:35
  Speaker 4: five hundred or six hundred million dollars and you lose
• 54:38
  Speaker 4: the draft, it's not going to do that much good
• 54:40
  Speaker 4: for you to trade that one.
• 54:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true.
• 54:43
  Speaker 4: But if I lose by like a hundred million, then
• 54:45
  Speaker 4: it could happen. All right, everyone, we have come to
• 54:49
  Speaker 4: the end. Tune in for our follow up episode in
• 54:52
  Speaker 4: the fall, when we crunch the numbers, add up our bonuses,
• 54:55
  Speaker 4: and find out whose team emerges victorious in this year's
• 55:00
  Speaker 4: Summer movie draft. That's it for this episode of movies
• 55:05
  Speaker 4: and marketing. Until next time, Let's fade to black.
• 55:10
  Speaker 2: I'll be back.
• 55:12
  Speaker 4: He's done coming back.
