• 2:42
  Speaker 2: I graduated high school, growing into an adult, going into college,
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: all that stuff. To really reflect upon this time in
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: my life through the lens of these films that we've
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: discussed this year has been really nice. It's been one
• 2:58

• 3:06
  Speaker 2: Sunshine of the Spotless, Mind Club, Dread. For me, it's
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: been a it's been a great year, and I'm excited
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: to wrap it up with the one we're talking about today.
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think I've hated that many.
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: There's a couple of stinkers for me.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: What were your stinkers?

• 3:38
  Speaker 2: as high on mean girls watching it this time.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: I didn't hate it though, but yeah.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: And Napoleon Dynamite too.
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, a little bit of that too.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: Hater's gonna hate, hate hate.
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: I always feel like Stony and I mainly for the
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: most part, basically fall somewhere within the same.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: I watched Million Dollar Baby for the first time classes
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: of this show.
• 4:00
  Speaker 3: That was a great movie. I'm happy we did that one.
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: I told you guys, told you you know, they filmed
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: Hillary Smanke's death first.
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: Is that? Uh? And then the saw.
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah stream this year.
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, so, uh, let's let's go out with a bang.
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: I guess for it is which would normally be a
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: recipe for greatness, and some it is to some it
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: is to some not so much. But we're talking about
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: The Terminal. And I'm taking this straight from im dB
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: because I didn't want to put enough effort into coming
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: up with a description for this film.
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: The Terminal is about an Eastern European tourist unexpectedly finds
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: himself stranded at JFK Airport and must take up temporary
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: residents here. This is somewhat based on a true story,
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: which we'll get into really deeply. Oh you didn't know.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: I did not know that. Oh yeah, it's completely different
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: from the fucking film the I think the true story
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: would have been better.
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: Oh you think so.
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: I think the true story would have made a better film.
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: Is he stuck in an airport?
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: Yeah? For eighteen years?
• 5:07
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, God.
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: I can't believe you don't know this. Now, this is
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: gonna be fun.
• 5:12
  Speaker 4: Well, let me tell you this. That movie certainly would
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: be over seventy hours.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but that's before the Snyder cut comes out. Yeah.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, to shame to Shae.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: Terminals directed, as we said, by Steven Spielberg. I'm not
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: gonna list his credits because we all know them. I
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: did watch one of his movies for the first time
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: this year, and that was Jaws.
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: I guess didn't like that one either.
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: I get why people love it so much, but it's
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: it's long and slow and boring.
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: I really liked it fifty years this year.
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: That's the reason why I watched it. Yeah. The Terminal
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: was written by Andrew Nicole, who did Gatica, The Truman
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: Show and the upcoming Monopoly movie.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: Is that Monopoly the movie ever gonna get made?
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: It says it's in pre production.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: According to State they've been talking about that one for
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: a while though, or am I crazy?
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: No, You're not crazy.
• 6:05
  Speaker 4: No, there's been I think it's changed hands a couple
• 6:09
  Speaker 4: of times, but.
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and it may change again.
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I was all the time, maybe before the people
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: hear this.
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: It was co written by Sasha Gervasi, who I his
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: credits really didn't have anything to go with it. And
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: then Jeff Nathanson who did Catch Me if you can,
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: the live action Lion King and Mufassa Lion King. So
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: his movies have made some money.
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: They've made some money.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: That's money.
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, let's go to the cast real quick. We got
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: Tom Hanks, as we talked about, who plays Victor. Chie
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: McBride plays Moulroy, who was from Gone in sixty Seconds
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: and Waiting and I Robots. I just think of him
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: as a cop in everything he plays, but obviously he's
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: played a lot more things.
• 6:49
  Speaker 4: What did he play I'm not looking at his and Waiting.
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: Oh, he played Moulroy. He bigger black guy. He's one
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: of the luggage guys. I think was his character, Ye
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: Do You Diego? Luna very young as Enrique, he was
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: intah you two, Mama Tombien, who we reviewed Here Milk
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: and If Bill Street could Talk. And then Stanley Tucci
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: is Frank. This is a Stanley Tucci like you've never
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: seen him before.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: I liked him, liked him in this film.
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: And then uh, Catherine Zada Jones as Amelia. And then
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: rounding out the cast is a young Zoey's Aldonna as Dolores,
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: who you know from classics like Crossroads, drum Line, Dirty Deeds.
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Zoe Saldana and Diego Luna were both surprises watching this again.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: I did not obviously didn't know who they were at
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: the time, but and.
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: Their storyline is one of the biggest issues I have
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: with this film.
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: Okay, but it was. It was kind of Uh. I
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: always like when we go back and watch movies like
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: this and it's like, oh, yeah, that person, familiar face,
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: think about what they would become.
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: Yeah, which Diego Luna is, He's an and or right?
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: And I mean Zoe just won an oscar for Heaven's sake. Yeah,

  Speaker 4: for a movie that's not very good, but whatever.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: Which one was hers Amelia Perez?
• 8:16
  Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, I remember.
• 8:19
  Speaker 3: Uh. So we're drinking today. It's a holiday season. I
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: think we need a drink and this this one kind
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: of gives me some some holiday vibes. It's called the
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: cru Kochian Layover? Did I say the country's name? C
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: Crosion Layover. You need an ounce and a half of vodka,
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: three quarter ounce of driver Muth, a half ounce of
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: cherry liqueur, and a half ounce of lemon juice with
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: some club soda, little lemon twist for a garnish later.
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: But what you're gonna do is you're gonna shake the vodka,
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: the Vermuth, the cherry liqueur, and the lemon juice with
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: ice straight into a chilled glass over fresh eyes and
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: the top with club soda and garnish with your limit
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: twist about that?
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah, refreshing holidays.
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: Rushing and a little bit festive.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: Yes, yes, I'm with you. I like that, all right,
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: So we're gonna jump right in. We got time to waste.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: It's it's almost New Year's, almost Christmas time, so let's
• 9:11
  Speaker 3: talk money. Don't have a lot of it this time
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: of the year, because I'm buying presents.
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: Left and right exactly.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: But this is this is a Spilberg film. Oh yeah,
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: this is really gonna suck this year. Being a Spilberg's film,
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: A Tom Hanks film. There's a lot of money going
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: to those two names right there. What do we feel
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: the budget for the Terminal is?
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: Well, I saw it by accident when I was looking
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: at the Terminal's Wikipedia page. So I'm gonna abstain. We'll
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: just let Brandon play this game.
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: Does it start with a six? I'm this is a
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: game I'm going to play.
• 9:43
  Speaker 3: We're not playing this game because.
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: I'm getting sleepy. I don't know. I mean, it's it's
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: not a big budget like you know, Minority Report.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: You wouldn't think like special effects, c GI budgets, stuff
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: like that, like exotic locations.
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: And I feel like he did it on that sort
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: of a deal for a Spielberg. I'm going to say
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: forty one.
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: Well, where you were headed originally pretty much spot on.
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: It was sixty million, was damn it? And I know
• 10:19

• 12:11
  Speaker 2: to be like to what Brandon was talking about earlier,
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: like really underrated Tom Hanks, really underrated Steven Spielberg, And
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: I would have thought that this movie wouldn't have even
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: made a hundred million.
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, but international is key, like China for instance,
• 12:30
  Speaker 4: So I love there Tom Hanks.
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: Well, Japan was the biggest, the biggest winner, bringing in
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: just under forty million. There you go, Japan, Germany just
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: under fourteen million, and then our friends in Bulgaria fifty
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: nine thousand.
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: Bulgaria came out in droves.
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: But the country that didn't really come out in droves
• 12:52
  Speaker 3: but still had I think respectable for the country itself
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: is Kenya at just thirty one thousand dollars.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: How about that out? Where did Krakosia?
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well Krakosa is not real?
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: No what for?
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: First of all, Krakosia is not a real country. What yeah,

• 13:21
  Speaker 4: of that.
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: Well that was this movie was filmed in the Mohabi desert,

  Speaker 4: Oh well, thank you for connecting.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: That Creakosia on a map.
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: God bless, I mean too well, you're trying to decide
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: if I'm if it's true or not that Crocasia is
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: a real country. Let's talk about rotten other rotten things
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: in this room, and that's the tomatoes.
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: So, oh my god, oh my god. Krekosia is a
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: fictional country no sh created for the film that closely
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: resembles a former Soviet republic. Yeah, I cannot believe for
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: twenty one years.
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: Did you ever think to look for it on the
• 14:08

  Speaker 2: Seventy seventy five. That smells so fucking bad. I didn't
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: realize what it was good Jesus man.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: Well, you both think more highly of the Terminal than
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: I do, and the media does sixty one percent.
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: That's embarrassing.
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: It's about right us.
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: The critics should be embarrassed of themselves for that.

• 15:34
  Speaker 4: I think it's higher.
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm I think it's higher, not.
• 15:37
  Speaker 4: By a lot. I'm not saying it's in the I
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: don't even know if it's in the seventies.
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna say sixty four percent.
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna say sixty seven.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: They liked it more than you think they did, seventy
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: three percent.
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: That's right, you know why, Tom Hanks.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: I just it's such like it's such a sweet.
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: Tender movie.
• 15:53
  Speaker 4: Yes, I listen, I agree, we're gonna have to we're
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: about to fight mcash as he tells us why and
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: why he's wrong. But I just feel like it doesn't
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: feel like a Spielberg movie. But I'm fine with it
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: because it's sort of like it's It sort of gives
• 16:12
  Speaker 4: me the feeling of Larry Crown. For anybody that hasn't
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: seen that, that's a Tom Hanks Show Your Roberts movie,
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: and Tom Hanks directed that one. But it just has
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: this sweetness about it that like nothing like magical, nothing
• 16:29
  Speaker 4: blows up. It's not that kind of movie. But it's
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: just I feel like a time capsule of somebody, and
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: it deals with what they're trying to do, which the
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: whole mystery of the terminal was why does he even
• 16:41
  Speaker 4: want to go to New York? When that's revealed? Again,
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: very sweet, it just feels very genuine and it's a
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: very generous in many ways. Not just from Tom Hanks's character,
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: but the whole lot of them.
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: Yeahs to me, I would describe it like this time
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: of year. It kind of has the same cheery sort
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: of feeling as a Christmas movie, But it's not a
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: Christmas movie.
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: Agreed, So take that.
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: I wasn't paying Really, It's okay, I'm looking up some stuff.
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: Let's see what people thought on letterbox because some people
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: may have agreed with me, some may have agreed.
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: With you, since you chose them. I'm sure.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: I'm just surprised to learn this is such a universally
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: disliked film. Yeah, it's perfectly harmless.
• 17:33
  Speaker 4: Maybe is that? Why did they want? Like a saving
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: private Ryan in an airport? Like I don't understandn't know,
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: I don't know. What did you want? What did you expect?
• 17:42
  Speaker 4: It's called the terminal?
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: It could have been. That doesn't mean anything could have
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: been about cancer, that's true. Uh, Will on Letterbox gave
• 17:51
  Speaker 3: it three stars. How could a guy who is living
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: in an airport get a girl while I can't even
• 17:57
  Speaker 3: get a text back.
• 18:00
  Speaker 4: Because he's such a lovable right, But he also didn't
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: get the girl in the end?
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: Well he.
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: He, I don't think he lost alt on her. Yeah, yeah,
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: in that way that this sad SAP's talking about.
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: Then there's Ginny who gave it five stars.
• 18:20
  Speaker 4: Here we go.
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: I hope that in one of my future lives, I
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: am born into a universe in which people realize how
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: good this film is.
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: Yes, preach, preach, preach, preach justice. Justice for the term.
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna bring it down to not Oh, here we go.
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: Q y k x c Z sounds stupid.
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: Already half a star. If anyone brings up this movie
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: to me ever again, I'm pulling out a gun.
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: God, I see why you didn't like that.
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: You're ready to get it turned on you. But yeah,
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: how fire it right into your skull.
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, let's kind of meet back, bite your throat, let's
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: meet back in the middle. We're going to go with
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: Bowden two and a half stars. Wonderful cinematography that you
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: can expect from Spielberg and some top notch acting from
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: Tom Hanks. I disagree about that part, but I don't
• 19:10
  Speaker 3: know what the fuck I just watched? What?
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: What are we? What are we doing here?
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: What do you mean?
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: He don't know what you watched?
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: That's what he says.
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: It's the It's such an easy, simple story.
• 19:25
  Speaker 3: Man gets trapped in airport.
• 19:28
  Speaker 4: There is a war going on. It's not that the
• 19:30
  Speaker 4: doors are locked. He don't know how to get out.
• 19:33
  Speaker 4: There's a war going on to Did you hear Stanley
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: Tucci tell him in his office why he had to
• 19:40
  Speaker 4: and he's trying to survive? And I think, do we
• 19:42
  Speaker 4: miss the part why he goes through all of this?
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: I'm not directing this at you. I'm directing this at
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: the point.
• 19:48
  Speaker 3: Who doesn't want Stanley or Tom Hanks's car?
• 19:51
  Speaker 4: Tom Hanks? Why he's going through all of this to
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: get into New York for this person? Are they missing
• 19:57
  Speaker 4: the point for.
• 19:58
  Speaker 3: A fucking autograph you could have bought on eBay? I'm sure,
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: I'm sure. I'm sure Kuzakistan or whatever has.
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: The whole point. Your answer to the terminal is he
• 20:11
  Speaker 4: should have just bought the signature off eBay.
• 20:14
  Speaker 3: It had been cheaper and got it quicker. I finally
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: JJ three and a half stars. The main question for
• 20:23
  Speaker 3: me is why why make it so cheesy? Why add
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: a love interest, Why make him kind of stupid? Why
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: cast Stanley Tucci as the villain, But mainly, with all
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: of these, why does it kind of work.
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: Why is he stupid?
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I see how he came around at
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: the end, but I'm still I guess I'm just lost
• 20:46
  Speaker 4: in what why other people think this doesn't make.
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: The beginning of the film, with the way Hanks portrays
• 20:55
  Speaker 3: the character to me, kind of becomes its kind of
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: buffoonish because oh, I don't know the language, so I'm
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: just going to use this accent to get across, and
• 21:06
  Speaker 3: it just I it takes me back to that show
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: Perfect Strangers with the the TV show.
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: I haven't watched either one.
• 21:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Balki I think is the name of the character.
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: And he's like from some European country and has a
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: funny accent and that's the way he gets across because
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: he doesn't speak the English language that well and whatnot.
• 21:28
  Speaker 4: Just but I guess, Mike, I guess my question would be,
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: then what does he do if he's from another country?
• 21:36
  Speaker 4: Keep in mind, it's not a real country, So what
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: do you like?
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: What do you in this universe? It's a real country
• 21:42
  Speaker 3: in the film, and you're in New York City of
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: all the fucking places in the world to be, and
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: you tell me within ten months that this movie takes place.
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: You can't get a fucking translator to come in because
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: the guy they're like, oh, we get a translator, but
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: he's like two hours away. They even say that why
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: the trans does never show up.
• 22:01
  Speaker 4: It's busy. They're at JFK.
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: The JFK that looks nothing like JFK. And we'll get
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: into that because it actually looks like a real airport.
• 22:09
  Speaker 4: Did I did have it? Where like when like, at
• 22:13
  Speaker 4: what part of the airport do all the lights go
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: out and there's no one there? And I'm like, is
• 22:19
  Speaker 4: it just because he's in the restaurant portion of it,
• 22:22
  Speaker 4: because you know, airport's ever sleep or he found it?
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: So apparently New York doesn't either.
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: He found the one part of the airport that's under renovation.
• 22:30
  Speaker 4: Well, now that's listen, that's that's plausible.
• 22:34
  Speaker 3: Okay, let's get in. Let's get into what this movie
• 22:36
  Speaker 3: is really about or what it's inspired by. Insp inspired
• 22:39
  Speaker 3: by the story of Moran Kareemi Nasari. He landed at
• 22:42
  Speaker 3: Charles de Gaull Airport near Paris in nineteen eighty eight
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: after being denied entry into England because his Iranian passport
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: and United Nations refugee certificate had been stolen. French authorities
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: wouldn't let him leave the airport, so he remained in
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: Terminal one, as a stateless person would know where else
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: to go. He was eventually granted permission to either enter
• 23:03
  Speaker 3: France or returned to Iran, but he chose to live
• 23:07
  Speaker 3: in the terminal and tell his story to anyone who
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: had listened. Reportedly, his mental health deteriorated over the years,
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: and when given the opportunity to live in France, who
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: refused because the documents did not identify him as Sir
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: Alfred and he claimed to have forgotten his native Persian
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: Persian language. He left the terminal in August of two
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: thousand and six to be hospitalized for an unspecified illness,
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: and afterwards he lived in a hotel on the money
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: he received from the film, which he got paid two
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: hundred fifty thousand dollars for the rights. Because he wrote
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: a book called The Terminal Man that you can read,
• 23:39
  Speaker 3: Oh that tells you everything about it?
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: Like that? Yeah, I think I would. I'm going to
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: put that on my good Reads right now.
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: There you go. He moved back to the Charles de
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: Gaul airport in October of twenty two and then later
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: died of a heart attack in Terminal to f on
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: November twelve, twenty twenty two.
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: Woh so he just passed away three years ago ago.
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: Is based on a true.
• 24:02
  Speaker 4: Story, and you you think that's I mean, I think
• 24:06
  Speaker 4: it's more interesting. Is a great film, but that's a
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: much darker one and a longer one.
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: The film starts out by from war, so how much
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: darker does it get.
• 24:17
  Speaker 4: I'm talking about his mental state and deterioration implies someone
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: that was stolen, so it's not quite the same. I'm
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: not saying I wouldn't like to see it, but this
• 24:28
  Speaker 4: one is just not that.
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: As long as Tom Hanks doesn't play the guy.
• 24:31
  Speaker 4: He doesn't need to, doesn't need to. Adam Driver, Adam Drive,
• 24:36
  Speaker 4: Adam Driver. Anything that's crazy, just do it. But you're
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: basing this on an accent that doesn't reel in the
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: first place, A great European accents of a country that
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: doesn't exist.
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: It's an Eastern European, a blanketed Eastern European accent.
• 24:56
  Speaker 2: What's what's wrong with it?
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: It's not good And I love Tom Haynes. It's so
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: cartoonish and buffoonish is how it sounds and comes across.
• 25:05
  Speaker 4: Oh, I see, you think he's just clowning around.
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: I don't think he's clowning around by any means. This
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: isn't big yeah or splash.
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: I don't know. I guess I'm trying to get it.
• 25:15
  Speaker 4: I don't know what he what you you.
• 25:17
  Speaker 3: Do realize the majority of the people seem to agree
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: with me and the and there feels with this film.
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: I think it's because it's Tom Hanks.
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I think not just you, but the
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: majority of people I think are getting caught up in
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: that Tom Hanks is doing an accent that I think
• 25:37
  Speaker 4: feels like he should be able to do a better
• 25:40
  Speaker 4: accent than what he's doing, because you've seen better stuff
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: like on TV.
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: I also think the somebody could have been better cast
• 25:49
  Speaker 3: in the role. I don't know. I can't give you
• 25:51
  Speaker 3: an example who Off top of my head. Like I
• 25:53
  Speaker 3: said earlier, I don't think this is a I think
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: this is an okay film. I just don't think it's
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: a good Tom Hanks film, and I definitely don't think
• 25:59
  Speaker 3: it's a good Steven Spielberg film. Now see, it wouldn't
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: be in my top ten of either one of those well.
• 26:06
  Speaker 4: But that's I mean, that bar is high from what
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: they've done.
• 26:10
  Speaker 3: And so I set the bar high for them to
• 26:13
  Speaker 3: make good.
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: I think it's I think it's a sneaky, feel good
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: film that has two legendary people who I mean obviously
• 26:26
  Speaker 4: had already teamed.
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: Up Catherine Zada, Johneson, sanil No.
• 26:31
  Speaker 4: Even though I like them, but I also like the
• 26:34
  Speaker 4: luggage guys, the what's the gentleman's name? He cleans the floors.
• 26:38
  Speaker 4: He's got some of the best scenes.
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, So I had never seen him before then
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: I looked him up. He's been in a ton of
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: fucking shit.
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: There was something before that movie that I remembered him in,
• 26:51
  Speaker 4: and now I can't remember it.
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: I don't. I didn't know him from Adam, to be honest.
• 26:55
  Speaker 4: You know. One of the things was that then the first
• 26:57
  Speaker 4: like year or two before The Terminal came out, he
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: was in some big movie. But I don't think you
• 27:06
  Speaker 4: get the feelings that Stony and I are talking about,
• 27:09
  Speaker 4: as far as it believing in someone, believing in their vulnerability,
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: maybe their naiveness, but also lovability. If you don't have
• 27:20
  Speaker 4: someone like Tom Hanks, like I don't think when he
• 27:24
  Speaker 4: finally reaches that door and everyone's following him and the guy,
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: the cop guy gives him his jacket. You I mean,
• 27:33
  Speaker 4: I'm in. I'm totally bought in. But it's because of
• 27:39
  Speaker 4: how Tom Hanks approached this character and just how I
• 27:42
  Speaker 4: just feel like all these things are happening right. Stanley
• 27:47
  Speaker 4: Tucci is a great example. Everything is kind of it's
• 27:52
  Speaker 4: either calculated or how does it benefit me? And that's
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: not Tom. Like, that's not him and that's not who
• 27:59
  Speaker 4: he is. And that's why I feel like when the end,
• 28:02
  Speaker 4: which whatever whatever people wanted out of it, I like
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: that it was just it was for his father, and yeah,
• 28:10
  Speaker 4: and that's that's it. I think that's why he's not
• 28:14
  Speaker 4: gonna go buy it. I don't think. I think that's
• 28:16
  Speaker 4: why he was gonna go and have this person, because
• 28:19
  Speaker 4: you know, his dad got signatures that were mailed to him,
• 28:22
  Speaker 4: but he could never get this one. And so this
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: is what he was going to do. And I I
• 28:29
  Speaker 4: feel like, you don't for those that liked it, You
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: can't get behind a character like that without someone that
• 28:36
  Speaker 4: just has this overall lovable factor as just a human.
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: Then someone like Tom Hanks, like I don't really know
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: anybody else accent or not, who could walk into that
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: role and that's a great and get away with what
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: he's doing, whether it's the renovating thing. I'm not saying
• 28:55
  Speaker 4: everything makes sense, but there is a thing of just
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: a such an on about what he's doing, and it's
• 29:02
  Speaker 4: not for him, So most of it's not for him.
• 29:04
  Speaker 4: It's he's helping everybody else do this.
• 29:07
  Speaker 2: Whole thing with a different casting. You may sacrifice some
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: of that likability for somebody that probably looks and feels
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: a little more authentically Eastern European. But if the likability
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: is the whole point of the Bograpy two, then why
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: sacrifice that?
• 29:24
  Speaker 4: Yeah? Or maybe for some of you think it's a
• 29:26
  Speaker 4: better movie. I don't know.
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: So, like, if he's there just doing this one thing
• 29:30
  Speaker 3: for his dad, get in, get out, then why didn't
• 29:33
  Speaker 3: he go day one? Because Stanley Tucci was like, why
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: is he here?
• 29:39
  Speaker 4: Do you want that?
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: If he was that damn determined, I don't remember.
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: I don't remember that. I mean he was told he
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: couldn't leave.
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: And then the next the next day he's in his
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: bathroom walking through the terminal and Stanley Tuch is like,
• 29:51
  Speaker 3: why is there a guy in the terminal in a bathrobe,
• 29:54
  Speaker 3: and somebody responds to you told him, told me this
• 29:57
  Speaker 3: is where he lives.
• 29:58
  Speaker 4: Well, he will, I think, because I think he was
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: trying to do the right thing the rules. And then
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: when he's told him.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: He language, how does he know what the rules are?
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: I think he understood English only thing he.
• 30:12
  Speaker 3: Said yes, yes, yes, And then when they would ask
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: for his passport.
• 30:17
  Speaker 4: That was at the beginning.
• 30:19
  Speaker 3: This was at the beginning as well.
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: No, no, I'm saying what you're talking about is at
• 30:22
  Speaker 4: the beginning. Yes, but he's I mean, he's picking up
• 30:27
  Speaker 4: on things as as he goes, just like they show.
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: You, like getting his quarters and buying books.
• 30:32
  Speaker 4: But I but I I think, like he says, hey,
• 30:37
  Speaker 4: basically Stanley Tucci just wants him to get out because
• 30:39
  Speaker 4: he's someone else's problem. Yeah, he says that like that.
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: And he even tells him you can go.
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: Yeah. But Tom Hanks he knows, even as he's watching
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: footage of his country and everything else, he knows he can't.
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: He it's not the right, Like he's not going to
• 30:55
  Speaker 4: just do it to do it illegally.
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: Because he's pretty perceptive. I mean, there's a couple of
• 31:00
  Speaker 2: times in the film, like when he picks up on
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: the security camera watching him when he's going to leave.
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: He kind of picks that up with the scene with
• 31:09
  Speaker 2: the man trying to get the medicine to Canada and
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: then he realizes, oh, well if it's for an animal,
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: and then he changes his story to kind of help the.
• 31:19
  Speaker 4: Guy, or and it's him visiting of Zoe Saldana where
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: she's like, oh, you don't need this, and then he
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: comes back because he's doing this every day.
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: So he understood.
• 31:28
  Speaker 4: He picks up. I mean, I see it. That's the thing,
• 31:31
  Speaker 4: Like I don't really feel like he's like an idiot,
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: like he gets it.
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: I don't think if I learned a new language in
• 31:38
  Speaker 3: six months that I'm going to understand the intricacies of
• 31:42
  Speaker 3: medical forms enough to help somebody.
• 31:49
  Speaker 2: Well, you got a lot of downtime in that airport war.
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: He is stuck in the walls and fountains down reading
• 31:56
  Speaker 2: forms and all that.
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: You're only seeing a little bit of his life, not
• 32:00
  Speaker 3: like he has the he doesn't have a phone, so
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: he doesn't have the internet.
• 32:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, picking up, No, he's too smart.
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: He's too busy eating fucking junior whoppers.
• 32:07
  Speaker 4: I know what, and I love how it costs.
• 32:11
  Speaker 3: It's a two hour infomercial for Burger King.
• 32:13
  Speaker 4: It was seventy like seventy four cents because she gave
• 32:16
  Speaker 4: him a penny back and he said to keep the change.
• 32:18
  Speaker 4: And I thought he was a.
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: Fucking cheap tipper too. Yeah, well, just like a most Europeans.
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: He's see my part of their culture.
• 32:24
  Speaker 4: He did research he was.
• 32:27
  Speaker 3: Born, but yeah, I don't.
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's why that's why I don't think and
• 32:30
  Speaker 4: he only did it at the end. It is because
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: the war's over and because Stanley, I mean, everything kind
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: of revolves around Stanley Tucci's development and what the authority figure. Yeah,
• 32:46
  Speaker 4: that's what's kind of keeping him at bay through most
• 32:48
  Speaker 4: of it until he's like, okay, I like do it.
• 32:51
  Speaker 4: And of course you know there's a whole distraction the hero.
• 32:54
  Speaker 4: And then Stanley Tucci says at the end why he
• 32:59
  Speaker 4: could he could have done that earlier being an asshole.
• 33:03
  Speaker 4: But I will tell you, I think Stanley Tucci and
• 33:07
  Speaker 4: I get it. Tom Hanks is the name Catherine Zena Jones,
• 33:09
  Speaker 4: which I didn't mind. Your letter box says she's the
• 33:12
  Speaker 4: best part of it. I don't think so but she's
• 33:15
  Speaker 4: probably the second one because she's she just won an
• 33:19
  Speaker 4: Oscar for Chicago a year or two before. Stanley Tucci
• 33:22
  Speaker 4: is very underappreciated, maybe in just general. In this film,
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: I think he actually I really liked his performance more
• 33:30
  Speaker 4: than more than I remembered.
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: I think it's one that'll grow on the overtime, because
• 33:34
  Speaker 3: I've never seen him in a character.
• 33:37
  Speaker 4: Like that with Stanley touch Yeah, yeah.
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: As the so called villain, even though I think I'm like,
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: he was just following the rules for the most part
• 33:43
  Speaker 3: of the film and then it kind of got out
• 33:45
  Speaker 3: of what he was trying to grasp that next ring
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: on the ladder or the guy. Yeah, whether his boss
• 33:51
  Speaker 3: was retiring, he was up for the promotion. That's where
• 33:53
  Speaker 3: he kind of like really lost himself, will you.
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: But you think about it as like a concerned citizen,
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: Like he's an antagonist in this film because you're rooting
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: for Tom Hanks's character, but like in real life, you
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: want a guy like Stanley Tucci.
• 34:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, especially at that airport.
• 34:09
  Speaker 3: Well we're post not that, we're just recently post nine
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: to eleven, So half of that ship that wouldn't have flied,
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: wouldn't have flown, you know, Yeah, at that time, they're
• 34:19
  Speaker 3: not RFK or any airport in America is not going
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: to let some some Middle Eastern European or Middle European whatever.
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: Fuck anybody just live in the fucking airport for ten months?
• 34:30
  Speaker 2: Do we know that nine to eleven happened in the
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: Terminal universe?
• 34:34
  Speaker 4: That's true.
• 34:36
  Speaker 3: By some of the security questions we see at the
• 34:40
  Speaker 3: beginning of the film and so forth, I would believe.
• 34:42
  Speaker 2: So we'll have to go back and watch that for clues.
• 34:44
  Speaker 4: I just want to see what cinematic universe it's in. Right,
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: is the Polar Express also.
• 34:52
  Speaker 2: Like Broken Lizard the Conjuring Universe?
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: Right?
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah? Is Annabelle touring the nation and killing people?
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: Maybe?
• 35:00
  Speaker 4: What do Why do you think Catherin Zena Jones is
• 35:03
  Speaker 4: the best part?
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: I mean, I was being funny to be glib or anything.
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: I will say I've never been a big fan of hers,
• 35:09
  Speaker 3: but I really liked her in this film. You know what,
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: I did too, And I thought she was beautiful in
• 35:14
  Speaker 3: this film. I'm like, as a from a physical standpoint,
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: I've never been attracted to her, but I just love
• 35:19
  Speaker 3: the way she was lit. I guess, so I just
• 35:23
  Speaker 3: really liked her in this.
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: They did a good job of presenting her as Victor
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: sees her. I think that's the was the plan there,
• 35:33
  Speaker 2: if I had to guess.
• 35:34
  Speaker 4: And I appreciate that it was not like a holding hands.
• 35:39
  Speaker 4: They go to New York together and get the signature
• 35:42
  Speaker 4: and he's gonna stay. I'm glad we didn't go that route.
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: I'm glad it was where she ended up going back
• 35:47
  Speaker 4: to something that she knows it and it's never gonna happen.
• 35:49
  Speaker 4: But but the waiting part of their conversation that also
• 35:53
  Speaker 4: adds I think some half to the to the story
• 35:56
  Speaker 4: of not just him stuck in an airport, but kind
• 35:59
  Speaker 4: of what's going on in the people who are coming
• 36:01
  Speaker 4: in and out of the airport, and you know, and
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: you also got like I said, the ensemble cast should
• 36:06
  Speaker 4: get a lot of credit because there's a lot of
• 36:08
  Speaker 4: things going on there that I really like. But also
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: again I think shows you the kind of guy that
• 36:14
  Speaker 4: Tom Hanks's character was two But I know you didn't
• 36:18
  Speaker 4: like you said you didn't like the Zoey Seldana diego uh,
• 36:23
  Speaker 4: which if that's in your notes, just keep ye keep
• 36:25
  Speaker 4: moving so str.
• 36:25
  Speaker 3: We'll get to some of the things that bothered me really,
• 36:28
  Speaker 3: But this cast includes three Oscar winners, obviously Hank's Zeta
• 36:31
  Speaker 3: Jones Zoe Now and one Oscar nominee, Stanley.
• 36:35
  Speaker 4: Tucci yep, which he was nominated.
• 36:38
  Speaker 3: What Spielberg's won Oscars, hasn't he?
• 36:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah, he went for saving Private r He hasn't won
• 36:43
  Speaker 4: an think for acting, but yeah, yeah, Spielberg did win
• 36:46
  Speaker 4: for saving Private Running.
• 36:48
  Speaker 3: At least there were other directors linked to this film
• 36:52
  Speaker 3: at various points before Spielberg was attached to it. I
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: mentioned this off air, and I don't think I've mentioned
• 36:57
  Speaker 3: it since, but I thought and I saw a box
• 37:00
  Speaker 3: review that said this, and I agreed with her where
• 37:02
  Speaker 3: she said I thought Robert Zamechis directed this film for
• 37:05
  Speaker 3: the longest time. He was one of those names. And
• 37:08
  Speaker 3: another name you see that, Sam Mendez, WHOA.
• 37:12
  Speaker 4: I could see. I could see that again. I think
• 37:14
  Speaker 4: you're talking about I think Zamechas's would look more like Spielberg. Mendez,
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: I kind of feel like would be more I don't
• 37:22
  Speaker 4: know why, maybe because he's British, but a lot more dramatic.
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm curious though, Like these are some big names
• 37:29
  Speaker 2: attached to this project, like did they think were they
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: going for like Oscar Buzz with this or.
• 37:35
  Speaker 3: I honestly never seen the film until literally twenty four
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: hours ago. Uh thought this was a drama and nothing
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: comedic about it, and then when the comedy parts started
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: coming into the film, it just rubbed me the wrong
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: way because it was not the film I thought I
• 37:54
  Speaker 3: was sitting down to watch. And maybe that's part of
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: my issue with the film.
• 37:58
  Speaker 4: I think that kind of that might speak to the
• 38:00
  Speaker 4: bigger problem of maybe why it's sixty percent whatever is
• 38:04
  Speaker 4: that I think maybe you associate Hanks and Spielberg and
• 38:08
  Speaker 4: this is not quite what you get, even though I
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: feel like, I mean, I personally like catch me if
• 38:14
  Speaker 4: you can better. But that's another Spielberg Hanks one that
• 38:17
  Speaker 4: ended up being more of an awards player. But it's
• 38:20
  Speaker 4: I think it's kind of in the same vein the
• 38:22
  Speaker 4: same term, similar elements.
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, because I watched the trailer before ever watching
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: the movie yesterday, and I didn't pick up on comedic
• 38:31
  Speaker 3: vibes really from the from what I saw.
• 38:33
  Speaker 4: Okay, maybe it's like the way they do these others
• 38:37
  Speaker 4: where it's a musical but they don't tell you it's
• 38:38
  Speaker 4: a musical. They make you.
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: Think I'd be curious to go back and watch the
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: trailer because that's an interesting that's an interesting idea.
• 38:45
  Speaker 4: I mean, it does seem like that would come out
• 38:47
  Speaker 4: in November, so it's like, yeah, it really does.
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: The Materialist that came out earlier this year. Yeah, the
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: trailer sells you on a completely different movie.
• 38:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, No, it's not a wrong com.
• 38:58
  Speaker 3: No, it's not at all a great film.
• 39:00
  Speaker 4: I just say I also really liked it. But I agree.
• 39:03
  Speaker 4: I think there's some things where people are like, well,
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: wait a minute, that's not you know. But then I
• 39:07
  Speaker 4: guess to me, it's kind of like, again, you kind
• 39:11
  Speaker 4: of associate people certain stuff. Now when I see like,
• 39:14
  Speaker 4: you know, writer, director, Academy War nominee from Past Lives,
• 39:17
  Speaker 4: I'm gonna say, Okay, this can't be a rom com
• 39:19
  Speaker 4: like Matthew McConaughey rom com, you know. And so I
• 39:23
  Speaker 4: just wonder if it kind of on the flip side
• 39:26
  Speaker 4: of it, was this a thing of like, like you said,
• 39:28
  Speaker 4: it's kind of seen as maybe more of this dramatic
• 39:33
  Speaker 4: piece than just like actually, like it is a bit looser.
• 39:37
  Speaker 4: It can get silly. But again, I mean I think
• 39:39
  Speaker 4: I think it's heart is in the right place.
• 39:41
  Speaker 3: Like Tom Hanks has done a large number of comedies
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: over his career. Oh yeah, but Spielberg is when I
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: think comedy is not the name I go to.
• 39:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, no again, I think cash Me if you can
• 39:53
  Speaker 4: is the closest one I can kind of think of that,
• 39:55
  Speaker 4: sort of like, I.
• 39:56
  Speaker 3: Mean this, granted, Schindler's List is a fucking riot.
• 39:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, well, well that's true. That's true. Well, you know,
• 40:03
  Speaker 4: I mean some people say Passionate of the Christ is.
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: Too Yeah, some people think it's a documentary as well.
• 40:09
  Speaker 4: Oh that's true, that's right.
• 40:11
  Speaker 3: But Steven Spielberg's This is Steven Spielberg's first movie to
• 40:14
  Speaker 3: utilize a digital intermediate, which I didn't even know that
• 40:18
  Speaker 3: was before.
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: I don't know what that is.
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: Well, I'm going to tell you, okay. A digital intermediate
• 40:22
  Speaker 3: often replaces or augments the photochemical timing process, the colorization
• 40:28
  Speaker 3: and such, and it is usually the final creative adjustment
• 40:31
  Speaker 3: to a movie before distribution in theaters.
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: How about that.
• 40:35
  Speaker 3: First to use? And it was a fairly new concept
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: at the time too. I think like one or two
• 40:39
  Speaker 3: movies had used it prior.
• 40:41
  Speaker 4: It does make me wonder like how it goes from
• 40:44
  Speaker 4: one director or the other where Spielberg does it, because
• 40:47
  Speaker 4: there are countless stories that I've heard in documentaries or
• 40:51
  Speaker 4: you know, just actors or directors saying yeah, you know,
• 40:54
  Speaker 4: I did this, or Spielberg called me and said, hey,
• 40:57
  Speaker 4: you should look into this script, like he's all I
• 40:59
  Speaker 4: mean his I'm just curious what that process was because
• 41:02
  Speaker 4: I feel like if Spielberg owned it, was it just
• 41:05
  Speaker 4: something he was going to produce and not do it,
• 41:07
  Speaker 4: and then eventually he decided. I don't know if that's
• 41:10
  Speaker 4: part of the game where Spielberg isn't first and is
• 41:13
  Speaker 4: deciding what role am I going to play it?
• 41:16
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's a DreamWorks film, so it could have
• 41:18
  Speaker 3: been him Catten's Burg.
• 41:19
  Speaker 4: That's why I think the script was there. The question
• 41:22
  Speaker 4: was did he want to do it? And when other
• 41:24
  Speaker 4: people passed, I guess maybe thought, you know what, or
• 41:26
  Speaker 4: it could be word once Tom Hanks got on board
• 41:28
  Speaker 4: and they talked and he's like okay. Because keep in
• 41:31
  Speaker 4: mind they've also been producing Buddies for a Band of
• 41:34
  Speaker 4: Brothers Pacific. I mean, they do a lot of stuff.
• 41:38
  Speaker 3: Another nerdy fact for you is that a majority, if
• 41:42
  Speaker 3: not All of the flights that you see on the
• 41:44
  Speaker 3: departure board were flights operated by members of the Star
• 41:48
  Speaker 3: Alliance and United Airlines is a founding partner of the
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: Star Alliance. Star Line sounds like something out of a
• 41:55
  Speaker 3: Marvel film or what it does. Yeah, yeah, but it's
• 41:57
  Speaker 3: a real thing. It's an airline alliance had quartered in Frankfurt, Germany,
• 42:01
  Speaker 3: that was founded in May of ninety seven. It is
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: the world's first global airline alliance. It has twenty five
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: members that operate a combined fleet of over five thousand
• 42:12
  Speaker 3: aircraft serving more than thirteen hundred airports and one hundred
• 42:15
  Speaker 3: and ninety five countries on more than nineteen thousand daily flights.
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: Damn, damn, it's prolific.
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah. I would have thought Star Alliance is something from
• 42:27
  Speaker 3: like Star Trek.
• 42:28
  Speaker 4: I did not think that was real.
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I went to this Wikipedia page. It's real real.
• 42:33
  Speaker 3: We've talked about the collaboration between Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg.
• 42:37
  Speaker 3: This is their third collaboration, following Save a Private Ryan
• 42:41
  Speaker 3: and catch me if you can and then they would
• 42:42
  Speaker 3: reteam over ten years later. Two more times that I
• 42:45
  Speaker 3: know of on bridges Spies, which I absolutely loved.
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: I never saw that one.
• 42:49
  Speaker 3: Wow, I really like it, but I love World War Two.
• 42:51
  Speaker 4: You should see it for Mark Rylance alone.
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I do love some Mark Rylance.
• 42:55
  Speaker 3: So you have Bridges Spies and then two years later
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: for The Posts.
• 42:59
  Speaker 4: Yep, yep.
• 43:00
  Speaker 2: I don't remember that one either.
• 43:02
  Speaker 4: That's got Hanks and Meryl Streep in it, and it's
• 43:04
  Speaker 4: about Watergate. Yes, them like the process and how it
• 43:09
  Speaker 4: got there. But it's good.
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's no President's Men.
• 43:13
  Speaker 4: But yeah, well, I I guess that's why I think
• 43:18
  Speaker 4: like a lot of their collaboration is stuff like that. Like,
• 43:21
  Speaker 4: I'll be honest, I kind of forgot about The Post.
• 43:23
  Speaker 4: It's good and it wanted it to be a Awards player.
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 43:28
  Speaker 4: Bridge of Spies was, but Mark Rylance and he won
• 43:30
  Speaker 4: Best Supporting Actor. But yeah, I mean, you know what
• 43:35
  Speaker 4: through it all, you know I'm saving Private Ryan. It's
• 43:38
  Speaker 4: just it's in a class of its own.
• 43:40
  Speaker 3: I agree.
• 43:41
  Speaker 2: I missed that one too.
• 43:42
  Speaker 4: You missed it? Oh well, you should go back.
• 43:45
  Speaker 2: A lot more of his films than I realized I did.
• 43:47
  Speaker 2: Hanks or Spielberg were both, I don't both. As a
• 43:50
  Speaker 2: matter of fact, I've seen more Hanks than Spielberg. But
• 43:53
  Speaker 2: there's a lot of Spielberg that I need to go
• 43:55
  Speaker 2: back and uh and watch.
• 43:57
  Speaker 4: It's kind of funny how like it seems like he'll
• 43:59
  Speaker 4: kind of get on with like Hanks for a little bit.
• 44:02
  Speaker 4: He did Tom Cruise for a little bit, more of
• 44:04
  Speaker 4: the Worlds and Minority Report, and then he'll kind of
• 44:07
  Speaker 4: you know, I mean, he did Ready Player one, and
• 44:09
  Speaker 4: then he did the what's the what's the famous musical?
• 44:13
  Speaker 2: Just the West Side Story?
• 44:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah? Yeah, and then what's the what's the most recent
• 44:18
  Speaker 4: when he did The Fableman's which was a very personal one,
• 44:22
  Speaker 4: which that saw that I feel like he just did
• 44:25
  Speaker 4: something else.
• 44:26
  Speaker 2: Like I'm just like, in the last few years, I
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: didn't realize he did Lincoln.
• 44:31
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I forgot. Yeah, he had to talk to
• 44:33
  Speaker 4: Danield Lewis a couple the BFG.
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think those are all of the movies
• 44:41
  Speaker 2: of the last ten years.
• 44:42
  Speaker 4: What's the last one you see? The Fableman's is that.
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: The Fableman's is twenty twenty two. He's got a science
• 44:47
  Speaker 2: fiction film coming out, That's what He's next year that
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: has Emily Blunt and Coleman Domingo and White Russell are
• 44:55
  Speaker 2: the only names that I recognize in it.
• 44:57
  Speaker 3: Okay, And he's linked to George Gershwin Okay.
• 45:01
  Speaker 4: And yeah, yeah he does all. You know, he's got
• 45:04
  Speaker 4: a lot of his producing stuff too.
• 45:06
  Speaker 2: So I never saw Honest Odd I did either.
• 45:10
  Speaker 4: That's a good one. I just remember. I think I
• 45:12
  Speaker 4: was probably too young to appreciate it, but I do
• 45:14
  Speaker 4: remember being super long. But Matthew mcconaughe's in it. In
• 45:18
  Speaker 4: Anthony Hopkins didn't Freeman.
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: Didn't see Empire of the Sun.
• 45:22
  Speaker 3: That's a great films.
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: Christ Christian, Yeah, I never saw Close Encounters of the
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: Third kind either. There's a lot of his film like
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: classics that I just I.
• 45:33
  Speaker 4: Just mind, I haven't seen all of Close Encounters. I'd
• 45:36
  Speaker 4: like to watch that one. I guess Jaws is my
• 45:38
  Speaker 4: most I mean, I think he did what Duel before
• 45:41
  Speaker 4: the Jaws.
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: A film called Firelight that is actually partially lost in
• 45:46
  Speaker 2: nineteen sixty four, and then he did Duel in nineteen
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: seventy one, the Sugarland Express in seventy four, and then
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: Jaws was seventy five.
• 45:55
  Speaker 3: Duel. If I remember Greig, it was a made for
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: TV movie.
• 45:58
  Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, yeah, it's kind of like in the vein
• 46:01
  Speaker 4: of Carry.
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: The Sugarland Express is considered it's noted theatrical film directing data.
• 46:07
  Speaker 4: That was what Goldie yep, mhm. Man, he's the man.
• 46:12
  Speaker 4: You know, the man has jumped from Jaws to et
• 46:18
  Speaker 4: e T and Jurassic I mean, I feel like every
• 46:20
  Speaker 4: single thing like he's there, A lot of them are
• 46:26
  Speaker 4: cinemat like it doesn't get bigger than.
• 46:29
  Speaker 3: You couldn't touch him in the eighties.
• 46:30
  Speaker 4: And the fact that he is still doing great work.
• 46:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it is good. So the documentary that just came
• 46:41
  Speaker 3: out on the fiftieth year of Jaws is really good.
• 46:43
  Speaker 3: If you haven't seen.
• 46:44
  Speaker 4: That, you know what it depends if you if that's
• 46:47
  Speaker 4: the first one you've seen as a lot I remember
• 46:50
  Speaker 4: watching this thing and I think it was called Page
• 46:52
  Speaker 4: to Screen, and there's a lot of stuff that was
• 46:56
  Speaker 4: in that that's in this one. They have up to date,
• 46:59
  Speaker 4: like they you know, they review Emily Blunt and some
• 47:01
  Speaker 4: of the more famous people now celebrities, but a lot
• 47:06
  Speaker 4: of that was has actually been documented before. So I
• 47:09
  Speaker 4: liked it. But a lot of stuff I knew from
• 47:12
  Speaker 4: John Williams, stuff which Sean Williams has his own documentary
• 47:14
  Speaker 4: on Disney plus that came out last year where he's
• 47:16
  Speaker 4: talking about Jaws, and then of course the Shark not working,
• 47:19
  Speaker 4: and I remember Spielberg saying even thought he'd never work again,
• 47:23
  Speaker 4: and he was so behind budget. I remember some of
• 47:25
  Speaker 4: like what they showed in this documentary about the like
• 47:29
  Speaker 4: the gossip, it was on the it was in the
• 47:30
  Speaker 4: paper of like this guy is ruining.
• 47:33
  Speaker 3: And the actual boat that's used in the film is
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: in the tour, the trolley tour at Universal Studios, which
• 47:42
  Speaker 3: I've passed by many times, even most recently when I
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: was down for HHN. But he would hide in it.
• 47:49
  Speaker 3: That's why I haven't. I have an anxiety attacks.
• 47:52
  Speaker 4: Like like that ship saved my life a couple of times.
• 47:55
  Speaker 4: But the whole one about Robert Shaw being drunk screwing
• 47:58
  Speaker 4: it up, I remember that being a part of it.
• 48:00
  Speaker 4: Different one. They said he was a he was a drinker,
• 48:02
  Speaker 4: but I also loved the story where he apologized and
• 48:05
  Speaker 4: the next day he knaieled it in one take and
• 48:08
  Speaker 4: that's what there you.
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: This was selected as the opening film of the four
• 48:13
  Speaker 3: Venice Film Festival.
• 48:14
  Speaker 4: Really I didn't know that.
• 48:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't know that either.
• 48:17
  Speaker 3: And then Victor reads a note to a character indicating
• 48:22
  Speaker 3: that he intended to stay at the Ramada end one
• 48:25
  Speaker 3: sixty one Lexington and in real life, one sixty one
• 48:28
  Speaker 3: Lexington Avenue, New York was indeed home to the Ramada
• 48:32
  Speaker 3: New York East Side hotel at the time of the
• 48:34
  Speaker 3: Terminals filming. Its history stretches back over one hundred and
• 48:38
  Speaker 3: ten years to nineteen fourteen, when it debuted as the
• 48:41
  Speaker 3: Hotel Rutledge for women, and it retained a women only
• 48:46
  Speaker 3: policy until the nineteen thirties. It subs Schanchul Jesus Christ.
• 48:51
  Speaker 3: It bore both quality in and Ramada branding, and since
• 48:55
  Speaker 3: twoenty seventeen, longtime owner apple Core Hotels has instead had
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: made the property an in house brand, renaming it the
• 49:03
  Speaker 3: Hotel at New York City. But it's a real, real place, forever, forever, forever.
• 49:11
  Speaker 2: Ramda in in our hearts and only let men in
• 49:14
  Speaker 2: that right.
• 49:17
  Speaker 3: While these women need their own place.
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 49:23
  Speaker 3: In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Spielberg said that the
• 49:26
  Speaker 3: film was a slight homage to Jacques Tatis's Playtime and
• 49:31
  Speaker 3: the work of Frank Capra with this honest sentiment.
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: Let's see that honest sentiment is.
• 49:38
  Speaker 3: A great great yep, okay, so Officer Torres and Zoe
• 49:45
  Speaker 3: Sidalda says she goes to Star Trek conventions dressed as
• 49:51
  Speaker 3: I forget what character brand is the last.
• 49:53
  Speaker 4: Name Darth Vader.
• 49:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but she later played Ourah and Star Trek two
• 49:58
  Speaker 3: thousand and nine and its sequels by J. J. Abrams.
• 50:02
  Speaker 4: Wow, she's Gomorra.
• 50:04
  Speaker 2: She's Gomorrah. Yeah?
• 50:06
  Speaker 4: Is that what you meant? No?
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: I know, I was like, I know she was in
• 50:12
  Speaker 3: that too.
• 50:14
  Speaker 4: I actually forget that she has been in Star Trek
• 50:17
  Speaker 4: in Marvel, so DC's next.
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: She's uh, she's got a got some money.
• 50:23
  Speaker 3: So has uh? Chris Pine, Yeah, he was in both
• 50:29
  Speaker 3: Star Trek and DC. Was he in d C too?
• 50:33
  Speaker 4: He's not in Marvel.
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: I thought he was.
• 50:36
  Speaker 4: He was wondering. He's been in the Wonder Woman movies.
• 50:38
  Speaker 2: That's where he That's where he's from.
• 50:40
  Speaker 4: Chris Hemsworth, Yeah, it is Marvel. Chris Pine.
• 50:44
  Speaker 3: Chris Hamworths was going to be Hulk Hogan.
• 50:46
  Speaker 4: He still might.
• 50:47
  Speaker 3: I don't think he want to now.
• 50:49
  Speaker 2: That project did get killed.
• 50:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah, according to hult Cogan, they had a business mishap
• 50:57
  Speaker 4: and he had already walked away, which I'm sure that's
• 50:59
  Speaker 4: not true.
• 51:02
  Speaker 3: Wrestlers lie or stressed.
• 51:04
  Speaker 4: That one did that bullshit that one did.
• 51:10
  Speaker 3: Only the truth came out when he was on hidden camera.
• 51:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, boy did they get them.
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: And yeah they did that fucking sponge.
• 51:18
  Speaker 4: Candid camera, the love sponge, whatever the.
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: Fuck he was uh. Zoe also said working on this
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: film made her more comfortable with large scale productions after
• 51:27
  Speaker 3: the negative experience she had while filming Pirates of the
• 51:30
  Speaker 3: Caribbean The Curse of the Black Pearl.
• 51:31
  Speaker 2: She was in that, Yeah, I don't remember her in that.
• 51:35
  Speaker 3: They all run together to.
• 51:36
  Speaker 4: Me, they she I do remember seeing her in it,
• 51:41
  Speaker 4: but I couldn't tell you if she was on his
• 51:44
  Speaker 4: crew or she was with Jeffrey. I don't know.
• 51:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she looks young. I don't remember I remember this character.
• 51:54
  Speaker 4: She didn't have fun in that one.
• 51:56
  Speaker 3: No, she's even quota saying. I walked away from Pirates
• 51:59
  Speaker 3: not really having a good experience from it.
• 52:01
  Speaker 4: Overall.
• 52:01
  Speaker 3: I felt like I was lost in the trenches of it.
• 52:04
  Speaker 3: A great deal and I just didn't feel like it
• 52:06
  Speaker 3: was okay. I worked with Steven Spielberg eight months later,
• 52:09
  Speaker 3: and he restored my faith that can that big can
• 52:12
  Speaker 3: also be great.
• 52:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Well, Spielberg's been doing it for a long time
• 52:17
  Speaker 4: even then. So but now look now she's an Oscar winner,
• 52:21
  Speaker 4: she should think Spielberg.
• 52:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe she has, I hope.
• 52:24
  Speaker 4: So.
• 52:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah. So the airport that we see RFK looks nothing
• 52:29
  Speaker 3: like RSK RF huh, Kennedy Airport whatever, whatever, r J
• 52:38
  Speaker 3: JFKKA anyway, it looks nothing like JFK or RFK airports.
• 52:44
  Speaker 3: But what it does look like is the uh, the
• 52:47
  Speaker 3: Paris airport that the real story came from. Because the
• 52:52
  Speaker 3: recreated airport took sixteen weeks to build, contained over one
• 52:55
  Speaker 3: hundred and twelve thousand square feet of glass, seventy five
• 52:59
  Speaker 3: thousand square feet of floor space, large enough to hold
• 53:02
  Speaker 3: six hundred extras. It was fitted with two thousand miniature lights,
• 53:06
  Speaker 3: and it also included working escalators and real food courts.
• 53:10
  Speaker 3: Damn about that, man, there's your sixty million dollars.
• 53:14
  Speaker 4: But I say, there's that budget right there.
• 53:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they recreated it. It was in Palmdale, California, which
• 53:19
  Speaker 3: is out in the desert in California. So, uh, and
• 53:24
  Speaker 3: tell me how boogy this is. You know, how Steven
• 53:26
  Speaker 3: Spielberg got to work every day? Helicopter helicopter in d nice.
• 53:31
  Speaker 3: Not Tom Hanks.
• 53:32
  Speaker 2: That's crazy.
• 53:33
  Speaker 4: Tom Hanks drove a Dodge Neon.
• 53:35
  Speaker 3: Probably, or if he's like Will Fairley drove a Dodge
• 53:39
  Speaker 3: Stratus because he's an important person, right.
• 53:42
  Speaker 4: No, I can. I mean it's a I mean, listen,
• 53:46
  Speaker 4: it's a flex move. But again, if anybody should come
• 53:51
  Speaker 4: to work in a helicopter, it should be Spilburg.
• 53:54
  Speaker 3: I guess he's in a garbon footprint though.
• 53:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's okay. We're all gonna die one day.
• 53:59
  Speaker 3: That's what my sinnate just tell me. And then the
• 54:06
  Speaker 3: note on the photocopy of the hand of Victor attached
• 54:10
  Speaker 3: to the sign all gates says free the goat. As
• 54:15
  Speaker 3: he's passing by, they all say free the goat on it.
• 54:18
  Speaker 2: I didn't even touch that.
• 54:19
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I called it towards the end.
• 54:20
  Speaker 3: I did at the end because when he's walking through
• 54:22
  Speaker 3: and everybody's like getting stored, is like he's going home,
• 54:26
  Speaker 3: he's leaving or whatever. See them all plastered everywhere, all right,
• 54:30
  Speaker 3: So that my issues. Okay, So I already mentioned one
• 54:34
  Speaker 3: about the medicine forums and the English language, so Victor
• 54:38
  Speaker 3: can't speak the language fairly well. In the halfway through
• 54:42
  Speaker 3: the movie, but somehow understands how the currency works.
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: I thought, what do you mean the current doesn't understand
• 54:51
  Speaker 2: but somehow understands how the currency.
• 54:53
  Speaker 3: How how the American dollar or quarter works. Like he
• 54:58
  Speaker 3: he gets his quarter from turning in the carts and
• 55:01
  Speaker 3: then he knows exactly how like a quarter is worth
• 55:05
  Speaker 3: how much and a dollar is worth how much. When
• 55:09
  Speaker 3: he comes to like his purchasing skills, I.
• 55:12
  Speaker 2: Thought he was seeing other people. I thought he saw
• 55:15
  Speaker 2: somebody else use them or am I misremembering.
• 55:20
  Speaker 3: I don't remember seeing that.
• 55:22
  Speaker 4: I don't really remember him. I just remember him putting
• 55:24
  Speaker 4: that money on there on the counter that he got
• 55:26
  Speaker 4: and then she just gives him the change and he says,
• 55:28
  Speaker 4: keep it. He just eats a burger like I think
• 55:30
  Speaker 4: he just what can that get me? Yes, the burger
• 55:34
  Speaker 4: king one is what I remember. Now he does start
• 55:36
  Speaker 4: to buy his suit yeah from huge suit yep. So
• 55:41
  Speaker 4: I honestly I think he really is just now I
• 55:44
  Speaker 4: will say, if you get if you want to go
• 55:46
  Speaker 4: too far down here. When he gets that job at
• 55:49
  Speaker 4: that construction company, you're thinking, are they paying him cash?
• 55:52
  Speaker 4: Because they surely can't pay him by chat.
• 55:55
  Speaker 3: They talk about him being paid cash under the table.
• 55:58
  Speaker 3: Oh okay, and he's actually making more even Stanley Couchi's
• 56:01
  Speaker 3: Cucci's character.
• 56:04
  Speaker 2: I knew it was gonna have it.
• 56:07
  Speaker 3: I knew it was gonna happen. At some point Stanley,
• 56:11
  Speaker 3: he asked, like how much he's being paid. He's like
• 56:14
  Speaker 3: nineteen dollars an hour, Sir. He's like, that's more than
• 56:16
  Speaker 3: I make. And I'm like, okay, so if if, if
• 56:20
  Speaker 3: you're making less than nineteen an hour and you're about
• 56:23
  Speaker 3: to go for this promotion, your boss is making more
• 56:26
  Speaker 3: than you obviously, but is he making enough to buy
• 56:29
  Speaker 3: a large ass fucking boat like the guy's doing.
• 56:33
  Speaker 4: Oh well, you know he listened. He may not know
• 56:36
  Speaker 4: how to manage. He's a bad money in.
• 56:39
  Speaker 3: New York City. He's he's got it like that.
• 56:42
  Speaker 4: I am, yeah, I don't. I don't really remember him.
• 56:45
  Speaker 4: Like again, I kind of put that under like piecing together,
• 56:48
  Speaker 4: where he sees if he has it, he can buy stuff,
• 56:51
  Speaker 4: how much everything is. I don't think it's really I
• 56:53
  Speaker 4: don't think he cares, at least at that stage of
• 56:55
  Speaker 4: burger king, where I don't even think he knows. He's
• 56:58
  Speaker 4: just found the coins and through it.
• 57:00
  Speaker 2: That's the impression I got, like he just puts it down,
• 57:03
  Speaker 2: like looks up like what what can I get with
• 57:06
  Speaker 2: this kind of deal?
• 57:08
  Speaker 3: Possibly? And then really, the one, the one thing this
• 57:12
  Speaker 3: has nothing to do with Hanks, this has to do
• 57:13
  Speaker 3: with whoever wrote this shit, is how the hell is
• 57:17
  Speaker 3: Zoe marrying a guy she's never really met just because
• 57:21
  Speaker 3: Tom Hanks is playing syrian O de bergiact. That was a.
• 57:24
  Speaker 2: Little I was like I had to stop and be like, wait,
• 57:27
  Speaker 2: did I miss the scene where like they flirt with
• 57:29
  Speaker 2: each other or something?
• 57:30
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I walks by her than one scene liver food,
• 57:34
  Speaker 3: and then he's just looking back at her like, uh,
• 57:38
  Speaker 3: he's about himself.
• 57:40
  Speaker 4: I Uh, I'm with you on that one. There needed
• 57:43
  Speaker 4: to be a lot more to that, or at least
• 57:45
  Speaker 4: maybe like they were they were lovers and he's trying
• 57:49
  Speaker 4: to get them back together and not like meeting them.
• 57:51
  Speaker 2: That would have been an easy solution.
• 57:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah, And then I think, oh my god, maybe there's
• 57:56
  Speaker 4: a twist in here. They're trapped at the airport and
• 57:59
  Speaker 4: they're the only ones who can be together. You see.
• 58:03
  Speaker 3: That's that's about as much of a stretch as putting
• 58:06
  Speaker 3: up the Spock sign and then turning your hand to
• 58:09
  Speaker 3: reveal you've put the ring on.
• 58:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I forgot that. I'll be honest, I didn't even
• 58:14
  Speaker 4: I forgot Zoe Seldon and Diego Diego were even in
• 58:17
  Speaker 4: this much less that they got married in there without
• 58:20
  Speaker 4: ever seeing each other. So that's a bit the relationship
• 58:24
  Speaker 4: they form of Tom Hanks. You can still do that
• 58:26
  Speaker 4: without having them either fall in love or you don't
• 58:29
  Speaker 4: need like, okay, that's fine, but like they don't have
• 58:32
  Speaker 4: to get married, like you can at least be like,
• 58:34
  Speaker 4: oh yeah.
• 58:35
  Speaker 3: Really on a date? Yeah, they finally say hi, the
• 58:38
  Speaker 3: date was.
• 58:41
  Speaker 2: Or I'm sorry the wedding was, Like what purpose did
• 58:45
  Speaker 2: it really serve?
• 58:46
  Speaker 3: It moved nothing for the story? Yeah, yeah, and I
• 58:49
  Speaker 3: will say it was a subplot that I was invested
• 58:51
  Speaker 3: in and then it just got it just shipped the
• 58:54
  Speaker 3: bed completely.
• 58:58
  Speaker 4: Yeah. No, I'm I'm with you on that one. Not
• 59:00
  Speaker 4: that I didn't like them, I just don't know I
• 59:02
  Speaker 4: like them below, Yeah, I just don't. I don't know
• 59:05
  Speaker 4: how we got from point A to point B to
• 59:09
  Speaker 4: getting married in that.
• 59:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah, at the airport, he's going up each day asking
• 59:13
  Speaker 3: all these various questions to get information about her, and
• 59:16
  Speaker 3: she knows the reason why there's some mystery guy who's
• 59:19
  Speaker 3: interested in me. And then it just goes away for
• 59:22
  Speaker 3: like a good thirty minutes of the movie. Yeah, and
• 59:26
  Speaker 3: then he shows up. I need you to do one
• 59:28
  Speaker 3: last thing. Yeah, I'm like, fuck her where?
• 59:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, like can you not go and get like just
• 59:33
  Speaker 4: get on the date?
• 59:34
  Speaker 3: I need like about just four minutes. Yeah, of shit
• 59:37
  Speaker 3: going on. That's really all I've got. You know again,
• 59:41
  Speaker 3: I didn't hate the film. I gave it two and
• 59:44
  Speaker 3: a half stars on Letterbox, so I'm that's a solid C.
• 59:49
  Speaker 3: So I just had some issues with the film, and
• 59:52
  Speaker 3: like I said, it's an okay film. I just didn't
• 59:54
  Speaker 3: think it was a great Hanks film or Spielberg film.
• 59:57
  Speaker 3: And we can agree to disagree, but we go and
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 3: we have anything else to add about the Terminal.
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 4: I I think it's a very underrated Hanks and Spielberg film.
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 4: I get it's not as big or as flashy as
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 4: there are others, not even together, just other films that
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 4: each have done. But yeah, I just like the generosity
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 4: and that, like I said, it's a very sweet, tenderhearted
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 4: film that doesn't have to do a whole lot, And
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 4: I for quite I kind of forgot what his reason was,
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 4: and it touches the soul what he did for his dad.
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 3: Honestly, the whole time I was thinking there was going
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 3: to be like remains, and he was there.
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 4: I kind of feel like that's what I wanted you
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 4: to think of, Like he had to go here to
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 4: spread the.
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 3: Time is the best thing.
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 4: See. I like I like that he like what it
• 1:01:02
  Speaker 4: what it meant for his dad. And then the it's
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 4: kind of the one that got away. And then and
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 4: I even like the way they did it and the
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 4: way it ends, like it's not that he has to
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 4: chase this guy down or anything like it, like you
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 4: know all the dramas in the airport, when he gets out,
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 4: gets it, goes home. I like the ending because that's
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 4: like to me, it's like, look what all he did
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 4: when he probably could have gotten it in a totally
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 4: different way, but that's not that wasn't his journey.
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 3: I would have been like, hey, dude, these fifty three
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 3: other jazz greats sit my dad in an autograph. What's your deal?
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah, now he could have confronted him, Yeah he could have.
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 3: I will say the jazz artist in the movie is
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 3: the real person.
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 4: That's Oh is it actually if that was the real dude?
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 3: So yeah, so let me ask this one before we
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 3: move on. This will be a second like Mount Rushmore question. Then,
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 3: out of the five films they've done together, where does
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 3: this rank?
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 2: Now?
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 3: I haven't seen all five. I haven't seen the posts,
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 3: but i've seen four of the five.
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 2: Ah, this, I think this is the only one I've
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 2: seen that they've done together.
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 3: Just you have homework, homework, sir, Yeah, I do.
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 4: I would say not that it's I wouldn't rank these
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 4: on like the best made films, but as far as
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 4: my enjoyment of them, I would probably I would probably
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 4: put this at number three.
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 3: I'm assuming behind catch Me in Private?
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 4: Right, yeah, actually, I my Now, it's been a while
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 4: since i've seen bridges By as I liked it, I
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 4: didn't love it, and the Post was good, but it
• 1:02:54
  Speaker 4: wasn't you know again in the in the big scheme
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 4: of things, as far as Spielberg, Tom makes stuff. But
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 4: it would actually be the order they came out in
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 4: Saving Private, Ryan would be first, catch me if you can,
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 4: then the terminal, then bridges Spies in the.
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 3: Post and Stoney's putting this first.
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 2: I can read it. Catch Me if you can, and
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 2: then the terminal.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 3: I've seen four of the five. Yeah, i'd gone saving
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 3: Private Ryan Bridge Spies, catch me if you can, and
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 3: then the terminal, and I'd probably just because of the
• 1:03:31
  Speaker 3: subject matter as such, i'd probably put it ahead of
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 3: the posts if I was there ever finally see.
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 4: It, I thank you. I think you probably would.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 3: But yeah, that's all I have for the terminal. I'm
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 3: ready to talk a little deeper about Tom Hanks if
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 3: we want to before we get out of here.
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 4: No, this is another impossible question to answer to only
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 4: pick four, but.
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 3: Mine were kind of easy. But like your favorite Tom
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 3: Hanks rolls.
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 5: Yeah, So I I took this as like my favorite
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 5: like characters, not necessarily, not necessarily how good he did
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 5: or how good the movie was, but just the characters.
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 2: I wasn't that big of a fan of Forrest Gump,
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 2: but I like the character. I don't know what box
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 2: you would put the Polar Express in, but I liked
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 2: him in The Polar Express and the myriad of characters
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 2: that he plays there. Road to Perdition is one of
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 2: my favorites of his. And then I think I would
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 2: put the Terminal on there for me.
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I kind of thought about doing it
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 4: the same way, which I guess. I'm I feel like
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 4: the Toy Story movie should be mentioned. I probably wouldn't
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 4: put that in my Rushmore because mine it's okay, I
• 1:04:51
  Speaker 4: would just say because it's a voice acting. But I
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 4: do feel like he is Woody. I mean, my my
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 4: son will know him as Woody, just like I know
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 4: him as Woody. But I'm gonna put that aside. I
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 4: am gonna save Forrest Gump. YEA wrote a perdition. I mean,
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 4: I feel like probably Saving Private Ryan Captain Miller. Ye.
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 4: And this last one is tough because I actually liked
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 4: both of them, but I would probably go I'd probably
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 4: go Castaway, okay. H The Green Mile was another one
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 4: that I like. I like that movie, but I really
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 4: like him in it, but I'd stick with Cass.
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 3: I'm kind of shocked one of mine wasn't mentioned, So
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 3: Forrest Gump obviously I went Woody as well. I went
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 3: Captain Miller from Saving Private Ryan, and then I went
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 3: Jimmy Duggan A League of their Own.
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 4: M Yeah, but I I I feel like I love
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 4: him in that film, and that's the thing that's the
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 4: tough thing. Tom Hanks.
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 3: I don't think that's a good film without him, but no,
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 3: it's not. And I don't think anybody. Maybe somebody could
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 3: have pulled that off, but I couldn't tell you who
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 3: could have done a better job than him.
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 4: I'm not even like, I like Castaway, but to me
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 4: like his performance. You what is it without him? I mean,
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 4: you know what I mean? And yeah, just Wilson so
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 4: but yeah, I think the one that would probably surprise
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 4: most people, and I have a feeling a lot of
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 4: people probably have not seen it is Road to Perdition.
• 1:06:29
  Speaker 3: I haven't seen It to Pradition.
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 4: Very I feel like, in speaking, Sam Mendez did do
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 4: that one, and it was the last live action role
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 4: for Paul Newman because he did he was the voice
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 4: in Cars, so that came out later. But I love it.
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 4: Jude Law is in it. It's so well done and
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 4: I love it, and I love Daniel Craig is in it.
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 4: I love that scene. Paul Newman says, I was hoping
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 4: it'd be you and it's raining.
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 2: Oh boy, cinema, it's so good.
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 4: I would love to see that in a movie theater.
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 3: Again, Hey, why are we getting a Greyhound sequel?
• 1:07:09
  Speaker 2: We are.
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 3: It's on his list of upcoming gray Oh, along with
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 3: Toy Story five.
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 4: Oh my god, I kind of forgot about Greyhound.
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 3: It was not good.
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 4: I mean I saw it, I just forgot about it.
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 3: I think that might have been the first thing I
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 3: saw on Apple.
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that's what a lot of people got Apple.
• 1:07:29
  Speaker 4: Probably watched it.
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 2: Watched it with my father in law in town on
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 2: a movie night. We sat pop popcorn Fantastic and then
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 2: it started pouring down rain, which was nice for the
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 2: atmosphere of the movie. And then we came upstairs and
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 2: realized that rain was pouring in our bedroom window. Yeah,
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 2: that's when we discovered. It was our first year in
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 2: the home, and that's when we discovered that when they
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 2: repaired the windows from the tornado, they did not go
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 2: through and actually seal around the window, so rain was
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 2: just woring.
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 4: Is what a great memory of Grayhoun.
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 2: I also almost just had a heart attack because I
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 2: could not find our episodes that we recorded earlier in
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 2: the year that were were saving remembered. It's because we
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 2: did them virtually and they're on the platform we used.
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 4: There's a movie he did that's also an Apple where
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 4: he's like has a friend Robot, Yeah, I like that one.
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 3: Finch Finch, Yeah, I never saw that one.
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 4: I like that one.
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 2: I love News of the World. News of the World
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 2: was a really underrated movie.
• 1:08:32
  Speaker 3: Some older ones of his that don't get much love anymore.
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 3: Is the Money Pits. Yeah, and then Nothing in Common
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 3: that he did with Jackie Gleeson.
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, but see some of those I hadn't seen too,
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 4: because I feel like people probably listen to this and
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 4: think big and splash, like people would probably think of those.
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 4: But he's just I mean, you're talking about spill, I mean,
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 4: what are I can't imagine Tom Hanks looking at his
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 4: filmography and being like, yeah, I did all that.
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 2: Real well has written some short stories too.
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I've got I've got one of them.
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 3: I asked my wife, like, like, would be your four
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 3: and she just said Sleepless and Seattle, Sleepless and Seattle
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 3: Sleepless and Seattle. You got mail.
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 2: That's an example to me of like, it's not like
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 2: a I don't want to say it's not a memorable
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 2: Tom Hanks character, but I don't like it doesn't really
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 2: stand out from his other characters.
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 4: Not necessarily agree, No, I I totally agree with that.
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 2: But I wanted to look at like distinct characters.
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 4: Well, and when I went through it was kind of like, okay,
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 4: like to me those four which is and honestly, if
• 1:09:44
  Speaker 4: I could squeeze in the Toy story movies, because I
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 4: just don't think these movie characters don't exist without this
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 4: man playing them, Like, I don't think you switch out.
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 4: Forrest Gump wrote a perdition castaway and are you for
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 4: got the other one I've said, But I mean, honestly,
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 4: like Apollo thirteen, Oh, saving Private Ryan's a big one,
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 4: but like Apollo thirteen is one I just don't think Philadelphia.
• 1:10:14
  Speaker 4: I thought about that too, with him in Philadelphia. Yeah,
• 1:10:16
  Speaker 4: and so yeah, man, I mean I liked the question.
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 3: Did he go back to back Academy Awards?
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you sure did, and I don't think that'll ever
• 1:10:28
  Speaker 4: happen again.
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 3: And one we didn't mention, which I'm shocked because I
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 3: think we both the three of us enjoyed the film.
• 1:10:34
  Speaker 3: I think was Colonel Tom Parker Parker, Oh.
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that would have been a good one.
• 1:10:41
  Speaker 3: That was.
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a distinct character.
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 3: Very distinct.
• 1:10:45
  Speaker 4: I think one of my least favorite of his is
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 4: when he did The Lady Killers.
• 1:10:49
  Speaker 3: Oh, that movie was not good, and that's a remake.
• 1:10:51
  Speaker 4: And that's knowing that I think it's a Cohen Brothers. Yeah,
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 4: so I didn't really get into that.
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 3: A lot of people forget he played Walt Disney.
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 4: Yeahs basic yeah, uh, but you just can't get like
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 4: there are some titles and characters and maybe it's just
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 4: the way you kind of hold the film in regard
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 4: as you can't like, you don't get to those other
• 1:11:12
  Speaker 4: really good ones because he's got there's just some that,
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 4: like I said, part of cinema history.
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 3: Like I love the Da Vinci Code, but then I.
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 4: Love his hair in the Da Vinci Code, but.
• 1:11:23
  Speaker 3: Then I hated Angels and Demons.
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 2: I don't think I ever watched Angels and Demons. And
• 1:11:29
  Speaker 2: I don't think the third one.
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 3: Was there a third one?
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, crap, I can't remember it now.
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 3: That I'm not aware of it. There was a third one?
• 1:11:41
  Speaker 4: Well, you know he did a movie with Emma Watson
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 4: called The Circle.
• 1:11:44
  Speaker 2: Yep, oh, a man called Auto. I think we have
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 2: a review of that.
• 1:11:48
  Speaker 4: Over yea, it is.
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 3: Captain Phillips.
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 4: That's another one. I kind of thought, because I thought
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 4: when he played solely too. But I love Captain Phillips.
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 4: I remember being borderline piss that he didn't get nominated
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 4: for Best Actor. He deserved that nomination for Captain Phillips.
• 1:12:06
  Speaker 2: Inferno De Bank Your Code.
• 1:12:12
  Speaker 3: I never saw that one.
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 4: I think that one's the one that had you and
• 1:12:15
  Speaker 4: McGregor in it.
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 3: I think we can all agree his most underrated performance
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 3: of all time character of all time is David S. Pumpkins.
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, no, that's that's a good way to end this.
• 1:12:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, let's do that, guys. It's how I wish it
