- 1:25Speaker 1: How do you feel after watching Clue? When's the last
- 1:29Speaker 1: time you had seen this? Had you ever?
- 1:30Speaker 2: I don't think I've ever seen it. Yeah, I don't
- 1:32Speaker 2: think so. That's because that was mid eighties.
- 1:36Speaker 1: It was nineteen eighty five.
- 1:37Speaker 2: Yes, so we weren't born yet.
- 1:40Speaker 1: No, and I don't.
- 1:40Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean it was kind of like I knew
- 1:42Speaker 2: about it but then never really watched it.
- 1:45Speaker 1: So I mean this is this is a cult film.
- 1:49Speaker 2: Oh yeah.
- 1:50Speaker 1: Even though the ip of Clue, the board game that
- 1:54Speaker 1: it's based off of, is one of the you know,
- 1:56Speaker 1: it is an institution in American pop culture, bous, this
- 1:59Speaker 1: film was still constered a cult film back in the day.
- 2:02Speaker 2: I I think I played Clue maybe three times in
- 2:06Speaker 2: my life.
- 2:06Speaker 1: I was going to ask if you're a big fan
- 2:08Speaker 1: of the board game.
- 2:08Speaker 2: No, not really. I was Candyland Trouble Sorry, Yeah, I
- 2:14Speaker 2: like those, but I do remember playing it at least
- 2:16Speaker 2: once or twice.
- 2:18Speaker 1: I think when we were kids there was a big
- 2:22Speaker 1: board game craze because we have that trouble where you
- 2:26Speaker 1: popped the little thing had sorry. Like you mentioned candy Land, Life,
- 2:31Speaker 1: Life took.
- 2:32Speaker 2: A good portion of your life to do.
- 2:34Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, dad, And Monopoly Man, Oh god, yeah, but
- 2:37Speaker 1: I'll tell you what, I'll give Monopoly credit. No better
- 2:40Speaker 1: way to burn an afternoon in the wintertime, it's snowing.
- 2:44Speaker 2: You can't go out burn bridges with your family.
- 2:47Speaker 1: Yeah, you can that too. Yeah. So I feel like
- 2:50Speaker 1: we had I don't want to say like a golden age.
- 2:53Speaker 1: I'm sure it only feels that way because it was
- 2:55Speaker 1: our childhood. We had a lot of good board games,
- 2:58Speaker 1: and back then, Clue was one that that was for
- 3:02Speaker 1: old p You have but you had to like exert
- 3:05Speaker 1: mental effort to really play the game and be good
- 3:08Speaker 1: at it and understand it.
- 3:10Speaker 2: I always thought Clue and Yazi that was for old people. Oh.
- 3:13Speaker 1: I loved Yazi. We were a big, big Yazzi household.
- 3:16Speaker 2: And Yati and listen Yati. Maybe maybe in the same time.
- 3:21Speaker 1: When's the last time you played Yazzi?
- 3:22Speaker 2: Oh god, we should have a Yazi twenty years ago.
- 3:25Speaker 1: We should have a Yati night.
- 3:27Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't even know.
- 3:29Speaker 1: We should have a Clue night too, because we recently
- 3:32Speaker 1: played it. I think it was and if I'm not mistaken,
- 3:36Speaker 1: it was our guy Stephen mccash. It was his birthday party,
- 3:39Speaker 1: I think at game.
- 3:41Speaker 2: Yeah that's right.
- 3:42Speaker 1: And well, no, it wasn't his birthday party because it
- 3:45Speaker 1: was it was to celebrate it was summertime, though, it
- 3:48Speaker 1: was hot outside, and his birthdays in January.
- 3:52Speaker 2: Well, we went there for it because I know he
- 3:56Speaker 2: got a hat for his birthday. I know U remember that.
- 4:00Speaker 1: I just know mcash and Heather were there and they
- 4:03Speaker 1: mentioned Clue and we brought it out and played out back.
- 4:06Speaker 2: Oh okay, No, this was a different time. This was
- 4:09Speaker 2: not You might not have been there. I don't think
- 4:10Speaker 2: I was.
- 4:10Speaker 1: Might not have been there. But we played Clue at
- 4:12Speaker 1: Game Terminal in Nashville and it was really fun.
- 4:15Speaker 2: Now, I will tell you I've I haven't played d'yachtzi
- 4:18Speaker 2: in twenty years, but I throw dice every other Saturday
- 4:21Speaker 2: in the back olly at Printer's Alley. I do like that.
- 4:28Speaker 2: I just never played. Yeah, I was. It was always
- 4:30Speaker 2: the candy. But you know you're right, as a kid,
- 4:32Speaker 2: I mean, those just kind of seem more fun, yeah
- 4:35Speaker 2: than Clue. And I'm sure I'm forgetting something else. That
- 4:38Speaker 2: was like probably a staple risk everything I've never Yeah,
- 4:42Speaker 2: well I never played that.
- 4:44Speaker 1: That was a little too involved. I've been thinking about
- 4:46Speaker 1: getting into that since I'm an adult.
- 4:49Speaker 2: Adult Now, Yeah, aren't you busy enough?
- 4:51Speaker 1: Yeah, ain't that has time for resk? Really, I'm lucky
- 4:56Speaker 1: to just get a few minutes to work on my puzzles.
- 4:59Speaker 2: Well, shit, no, you can't take on risk.
- 5:02Speaker 1: Yeah, but my point being that Clue is one of
- 5:04Speaker 1: those games that I feel like for us kids in
- 5:07Speaker 1: the nineties, we had much simpler options that were a
- 5:10Speaker 1: lot more fun. Yeah, color, we got to like hit
- 5:13Speaker 1: stuff and some murder stuff.
- 5:15Speaker 2: This is about murder.
- 5:16Speaker 1: So but when I went back and replayed it as
- 5:19Speaker 1: an adult, I was like, oh man, this is a
- 5:21Speaker 1: really fun game. I actually really am really vibing with this.
- 5:25Speaker 1: And we actually went after that and bought Clue, and
- 5:28Speaker 1: I think it's still sitting in.
- 5:30Speaker 2: The wrap say that much fun. Have they updated it?
- 5:34Speaker 2: You know? I'm sorry, can't like they've all like and
- 5:38Speaker 2: the new there's a new I don't know how new,
- 5:40Speaker 2: but there is a more updated version of like candy Land,
- 5:46Speaker 2: for instance. Yeah, I don't know Monopoly. I think you
- 5:50Speaker 2: just pay with crypto.
- 5:52Speaker 1: Yeah I haven't so I'm not so. I know they
- 5:56Speaker 1: have the electronic banking Monopoly.
- 5:58Speaker 2: I have that one. It's really nice with.
- 6:00Speaker 1: The cards and you don't have to even that.
- 6:02Speaker 2: Was probably ten or fifteen years ago, but yes, I
- 6:04Speaker 2: do have that.
- 6:05Speaker 1: That's that's crazy. I like, I like the old school.
- 6:08Speaker 2: I like where you got that colorful money.
- 6:10Speaker 1: I know. Target does a line of like vintage vintage
- 6:16Speaker 1: board games and they come in like these little boxes
- 6:19Speaker 1: that look like books that you can sit on your shelf.
- 6:21Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah yeah, And they have like yachtzi Sorry,
- 6:27Speaker 1: there's two other there's there's four, and they're all different colors.
- 6:31Speaker 1: And I actually, now that we're talking about this out loud,
- 6:34Speaker 1: I'm like, you're gonna go see if they have clues? Yeah,
- 6:37Speaker 1: so that it can also soon.
- 6:38Speaker 2: As boycotting Target, you can go, what.
- 6:41Speaker 1: Are we boycotting Target for?
- 6:43Speaker 2: I don't know. They did something.
- 6:45Speaker 1: I know their sales are are kind.
- 6:47Speaker 2: Of well as of August. Their CEO had a step
- 6:50Speaker 2: down because apparently they're still on the they did they
- 6:53Speaker 2: did something about I think it started with and I
- 6:57Speaker 2: even hate to bring this up on a clue read line,
- 7:01Speaker 2: but I think it started with something new the DEI.
- 7:05Speaker 2: But they oh yeah, they but the owner it was
- 7:09Speaker 2: I'm so happy we around this, I believe. Wasn't it
- 7:14Speaker 2: like the like one of the daughters of the owners
- 7:18Speaker 2: of Target or getting onto them and the whole thing
- 7:21Speaker 2: was it's not necessarily about DEI it's that they made
- 7:23Speaker 2: this whole commitment and did all this stuff and then
- 7:27Speaker 2: went back on it like they had already implemented all
- 7:31Speaker 2: these things. And the thing is they made a big
- 7:34Speaker 2: deal about it then and then when they went back
- 7:37Speaker 2: So but I didn't realize, uh, like that was months ago.
- 7:41Speaker 2: I didn't realize they were getting hit that hard.
- 7:43Speaker 1: Yeah, the the sales have been slacking. I don't think
- 7:46Speaker 1: this was like I was listening to NPR and they
- 7:50Speaker 1: were talking about Target, and like the issues with the
- 7:53Speaker 1: sales and revenue have been happening long before all of
- 7:56Speaker 1: this happened with the DEI and all that.
- 7:59Speaker 2: Oh.
- 8:00Speaker 1: They they kind of classify Target as in this sort
- 8:04Speaker 1: of purgatory of retail where it's not like a dollar store.
- 8:09Speaker 1: It's not like everyday low prices from Walmart, but it's
- 8:12Speaker 1: also not the price point of like a true luxury brand.
- 8:16Speaker 1: So you have stuff that is generally like a little
- 8:19Speaker 1: bit higher priced, but it's not so high priced that
- 8:22Speaker 1: it can like carry the stores. And they've been suffering
- 8:25Speaker 1: because of it.
- 8:26Speaker 2: It's just really they have no movies or anything.
- 8:29Speaker 1: Now. They stop selling movies.
- 8:31Speaker 2: And by the way, I now since we're talking about Target,
- 8:34Speaker 2: they're Black Fridays. Awful. Awful.
- 8:38Speaker 1: We could Black Fridays this month, so it's relevant. We
- 8:41Speaker 1: can talk.
- 8:41Speaker 2: Yeah, it is, and they start it ain't the same
- 8:43Speaker 2: as it used to be, and it starts back. I
- 8:45Speaker 2: think it starts in October.
- 8:46Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's crazy. But if they make a vintage
- 8:50Speaker 1: clue correct and they put it in a box that
- 8:53Speaker 1: looks like a book you can sit on your shelf,
- 8:56Speaker 1: that's how they're going.
- 8:57Speaker 2: To tell that's the key in the green.
- 9:00Speaker 1: You know what. We we have our Black Friday sleepover
- 9:03Speaker 1: every year. Maybe we need to bust that clue out.
- 9:06Speaker 2: Oh we should.
- 9:08Speaker 1: Maybe we can teach your son to night.
- 9:09Speaker 2: And I think, and I'll be honest, I think the
- 9:11Speaker 2: last time I played it was with Britney's family. I
- 9:13Speaker 2: think they played it a lot. Yeah, she should actually
- 9:16Speaker 2: be on here talking about this.
- 9:17Speaker 1: I mean, let's just talk about the board game. Let's
- 9:19Speaker 1: not even talk about the movie.
- 9:21Speaker 2: Let's talk about how let's talk about Tim Curry in
- 9:25Speaker 2: his prime Tim Curry.
- 9:27Speaker 1: That's a you know what, that's a great place to start.
- 9:29Speaker 2: I don't from Rocky Horror Clue, Yeah, I don't.
- 9:32Speaker 1: Tim Curry plays Wadsworth the Butler who was forced to
- 9:36Speaker 1: work for mister Body and seeks justice for his wife.
- 9:41Speaker 1: There are there are three different endings to this movie.
- 9:45Speaker 1: I don't know if you did.
- 9:46Speaker 2: You I was pissed by the second one. I'll tell
- 9:49Speaker 2: you that I was ready for, like I need a
- 9:51Speaker 2: real I need a real conclusion here.
- 9:54Speaker 1: Well, it was really cool when this film came out
- 9:57Speaker 1: because they didn't show all three in theaters. They picked
- 10:04Speaker 1: one and that was the ending you saw when you
- 10:07Speaker 1: went to a screening, so there was a chance back
- 10:09Speaker 1: again to other people.
- 10:11Speaker 2: Everybody saw it. It's possible all three endings played in
- 10:15Speaker 2: front of all different audiences, so everybody went home and
- 10:18Speaker 2: saw a different.
- 10:19Speaker 1: A different ending. Yeah, and you did not know.
- 10:21Speaker 2: Oh my god, that really just made my whole month.
- 10:25Speaker 1: It was a really clever way of doing it. Yes,
- 10:28Speaker 1: and recently I wish people would.
- 10:30Speaker 2: You couldn't probably do that now people video cam it
- 10:32Speaker 2: and stuff, but with their camcorders, I think that's what
- 10:35Speaker 2: they do. And but I love that idea and the
- 10:38Speaker 2: way that clue the way the game works. Yeah, there's
- 10:42Speaker 2: a lot of different outcomes that well done.
- 10:46Speaker 1: But I mean, could you imagine like going to a
- 10:48Speaker 1: screening and it's like, Oh, you get home and you
- 10:51Speaker 1: talk with your friends and it's like Missus Peacock's the
- 10:53Speaker 1: killer and they're like, wait.
- 10:54Speaker 2: What, Yeah, what do you Well? I just imagine like
- 10:57Speaker 2: I saw a two thirty, someone else saw a five fifteen,
- 11:00Speaker 2: and you come out and you literally have walked away
- 11:03Speaker 2: with two different killers.
- 11:04Speaker 1: Yeah. So I thought that was a really creative touch.
- 11:08Speaker 2: I prefer to see that last one.
- 11:10Speaker 1: I don't know what. I don't know what why they
- 11:13Speaker 1: stopped at three. They could have just kept going.
- 11:16Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, for the audience in the theater, I would
- 11:19Speaker 2: have given up after seeing a two or three of those?
- 11:22Speaker 2: Did they showed me one more? Ending I was turning
- 11:24Speaker 2: it off?
- 11:25Speaker 1: So that was I'm curious if because I've got the
- 11:29Speaker 1: DVD and the DVD has them all all three in succession,
- 11:33Speaker 1: is that's the same same that you got?
- 11:35Speaker 2: Yeah? Yes, And it kind of starts and then it
- 11:37Speaker 2: says but then and then it says, what really happened
- 11:41Speaker 2: all that yet?
- 11:41Speaker 1: Yeah? So this was this was inspired by the fortieth
- 11:46Speaker 1: anniversary screening of this film. It actually got a limited
- 11:49Speaker 1: theatrical run back in oh gosh, I want to say August,
- 11:53Speaker 1: maybe September. I can't. I can't recall off the top
- 11:56Speaker 1: of my head. It's been a couple months at this point,
- 11:58Speaker 1: and there was a series of screenings where they did
- 12:02Speaker 1: each ending and you didn't know which one you were
- 12:04Speaker 1: going to see, And to me, I'm kind of with you, like,
- 12:08Speaker 1: that's a much more enjoyable experience than going through all
- 12:13Speaker 1: of this getting to the end of the film and
- 12:15Speaker 1: then they hit you with a title screen that just says,
- 12:18Speaker 1: or maybe this could have happened instead, right, And then
- 12:21Speaker 1: we go through that for about ten minutes or so,
- 12:23Speaker 1: and then it's like, well, here's what actually happened. Cramming
- 12:26Speaker 1: all three endings into the same film kind of man,
- 12:32Speaker 1: I don't know, it does kind of take you out
- 12:34Speaker 1: of it. And this is kind of a kind of
- 12:37Speaker 1: a zany story to begin with, But when you're pulled
- 12:40Speaker 1: out of it like that, I don't know, man, I
- 12:43Speaker 1: do wonder if maybe I would have enjoyed this film
- 12:46Speaker 1: more if the first time I had seen it, I
- 12:49Speaker 1: just saw one of the three endings and was just
- 12:51Speaker 1: completely oblivious to the fact that there were two others
- 12:53Speaker 1: out there.
- 12:54Speaker 2: I just saw it as in, like, oh, they're playing
- 12:57Speaker 2: off of clue, but this is what everyone saw. They
- 13:00Speaker 2: were everyone saw these three endings. Yeah, and they were
- 13:03Speaker 2: messing with you. I really liked the idea that they
- 13:06Speaker 2: that people in the N eighty five literally would come
- 13:10Speaker 2: out with a different one.
- 13:11Speaker 1: Why. I mean, I'm curious. It's been forty years for
- 13:17Speaker 1: since this film's release. I don't know of another movie
- 13:21Speaker 1: that has done something like this. I know that there
- 13:24Speaker 1: are alternate endings for films all the time, and you
- 13:28Speaker 1: get all the alternate endings on the DVD, the p
- 13:30Speaker 1: ray releases and stuff like that.
- 13:32Speaker 2: Have you heard of Zack Snyder's Director's Cut?
- 13:35Speaker 1: We have stuff like that. But I'm curious as to
- 13:39Speaker 1: why nobody has done something like this since because I
- 13:43Speaker 1: think that would be such a popular cool thing today
- 13:47Speaker 1: and you don't tell anybody about it. People just start
- 13:50Speaker 1: going to see the film, start figure and then the
- 13:52Speaker 1: endings start coming out and people are like, wait, whoa,
- 13:54Speaker 1: what what's happening here?
- 13:56Speaker 2: And that'd be awesome if you came out of like Oppenheimer,
- 13:59Speaker 2: Like they didn't help the bomb, they didn't even drop it.
- 14:02Speaker 1: So I don't know why nobody's like that seems like
- 14:04Speaker 1: such a knives out thing to do. Yeah, which Knives
- 14:08Speaker 1: Out doesn't need the gimmick.
- 14:10Speaker 2: But I think I honestly, I just don't think in
- 14:13Speaker 2: this day and age, I just don't think and get
- 14:15Speaker 2: away with it.
- 14:16Speaker 1: Really, you don't think so.
- 14:17Speaker 2: I would say if it came out Thursday night, by
- 14:20Speaker 2: Friday afternoon, all those endings will be posted on social
- 14:23Speaker 2: media and then it would just be not that. Not
- 14:27Speaker 2: that I guess people couldn't do it. I just mean
- 14:28Speaker 2: people wouldn't go in knowing like it would already be ruined.
- 14:33Speaker 2: There are times there are the movie can come out
- 14:36Speaker 2: on Thursday, and I swear to you, Friday morning, big
- 14:40Speaker 2: publications are already writing about stuff and it says spoilers,
- 14:44Speaker 2: and I'm like, you don't get a chance to see shit, right, Yeah,
- 14:50Speaker 2: but I do. I do wish they did that, but
- 14:53Speaker 2: I wish it was for like something like that that
- 14:55Speaker 2: was actually like historically historically relevant, but for some reason
- 15:00Speaker 2: they just like Oppenheimer died.
- 15:03Speaker 1: It's like during that, yeah, Tarantino does off. Yeah, yeah.
- 15:08Speaker 1: This This film had a budget of fifteen million, and
- 15:11Speaker 1: it only made fourteen point six million at the box office,
- 15:14Speaker 1: So it wasn't until the film had been released for
- 15:19Speaker 1: a little bit that it developed a cult following throughout
- 15:22Speaker 1: the year, So I'm curious, like, would it take something
- 15:25Speaker 1: like that. It's not like a big budget thing that
- 15:29Speaker 1: people just kind of happened to see here and there
- 15:31Speaker 1: that maybe after afterwards it would become something more than
- 15:36Speaker 1: it than it is upon release.
- 15:38Speaker 2: I yes, like a twenty four. Yeah, I don't think
- 15:42Speaker 2: big big studios, they don't have the balls. They're not
- 15:46Speaker 2: going to take that risk anyway. Some would say they
- 15:49Speaker 2: barely take risk at all.
- 15:50Speaker 1: Well, I mean that's true, so just uh.
- 15:53Speaker 2: And then also, how did how much money did those
- 15:56Speaker 2: other endings cost?
- 15:57Speaker 1: Well, that's that's part of me.
- 16:00Speaker 2: See, when we really start talking about it, it's kind
- 16:02Speaker 2: of depressing.
- 16:04Speaker 1: It is kind of depressing. I just wrote a piece
- 16:07Speaker 1: for the Nashville Movie Dispatch Movie Annual that will be
- 16:11Speaker 1: out by the end of this month about like the
- 16:13Speaker 1: state of comic book movies, and I was looking into
- 16:17Speaker 1: some of the numbers about how these films have performed
- 16:21Speaker 1: in the seven or so years sense Avengers Endgame, and
- 16:26Speaker 1: I like looking through the top ten highest grossing films
- 16:29Speaker 1: of the year for the past decade. It is it's
- 16:33Speaker 1: really it's really depressing. I mean it feels like these
- 16:36Speaker 1: are products and not films. Oh yeah, it feels like
- 16:40Speaker 1: walking down the toy aisle of a Target or a Walmart,
- 16:42Speaker 1: where you're like, Oh, here's Star Wars, here's Marvel, here's
- 16:45Speaker 1: DC WAS, here's Disney was it?
- 16:47Speaker 2: In August, I think Frank Grillow talked about how Winter
- 16:52Speaker 2: Soldier Winter Soldiers Civil War one of them it was
- 16:56Speaker 2: the best MCU movie, and that he hopes that they
- 17:01Speaker 2: can get back to basically that quality of movie making,
- 17:04Speaker 2: more than just just being a spectacle. But have nothing
- 17:08Speaker 2: kind of just have nothing writing on it.
- 17:10Speaker 1: It was, and I wrote that piece, and that piece
- 17:13Speaker 1: I wrote, Marvel seems to be folkingo focusing, focusing less
- 17:21Speaker 1: on quality and more on quantity.
- 17:24Speaker 2: And which supposedly right. Kevin Figy and them decided that
- 17:29Speaker 2: there was. Kevin Figu was quoted as saying that Marvel
- 17:32Speaker 2: is starting to feel like homework to people, and they
- 17:34Speaker 2: can't get new fans because no one is going to
- 17:38Speaker 2: go back and have to watch all these movies and
- 17:40Speaker 2: all these shows to watch whatever's coming out next month
- 17:44Speaker 2: or whatever, and so, and I would say, I mean
- 17:47Speaker 2: with Thunderbolts and Fantastic Four, they're they're they're trying, and
- 17:52Speaker 2: I know everyone's like with the doomsday thing, which I mean,
- 17:54Speaker 2: I guess maybe maybe I've kind of just gotten exhausted
- 17:58Speaker 2: of them.
- 17:59Speaker 1: I think that's part part of it.
- 18:00Speaker 2: But but yeah, it it it, It is kind of.
- 18:05Speaker 1: But it speaks to your point that, like, studios want
- 18:09Speaker 1: that because that makes money. And to do something like
- 18:13Speaker 1: Clue in twenty twenty five knowing you're gonna do something
- 18:18Speaker 1: that might alienate some some moviegoers, right, Nobody who's bold
- 18:23Speaker 1: enough to do that? Right?
- 18:25Speaker 2: Is it just me? Or if someone did Clue now,
- 18:27Speaker 2: I just feel like Will Ferrell would just would have
- 18:29Speaker 2: to be in it.
- 18:31Speaker 1: I don't hate that though.
- 18:32Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. I'm not saying I don't know that.
- 18:34Speaker 1: I hate that. I hate a lot of what Will Ferrell's.
- 18:36Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, yeah, but it cordially invited one of them.
- 18:39Speaker 1: Well okay, but that one, that one was straight to stress. Okay, okay, okay. Yeah.
- 18:47Speaker 1: I called it the best two out of five movie
- 18:49Speaker 1: I've seen a lot of time. That was before I
- 18:53Speaker 1: saw Clue. Now, I think Clue is the best two
- 18:55Speaker 1: out I've seen in a while. But uh God, we
- 18:59Speaker 1: have cooked something up. We have suddenly cooked something up
- 19:03Speaker 1: Will Ferrell in a Clue reboot with eight different endings. Yes,
- 19:08Speaker 1: produced by A twenty four Yes. Yes, Let's let's talk
- 19:13Speaker 1: about the movie a little bit. I thought it was
- 19:18Speaker 1: it's very over the top.
- 19:19Speaker 2: Oh yeah.
- 19:20Speaker 1: I felt like I was having trouble deciphering, like is
- 19:25Speaker 1: this supposed to be this campy or are not? Like
- 19:30Speaker 1: there are times when I'm like, Okay, I'm having some
- 19:33Speaker 1: fun with this because I don't think anybody's taking this
- 19:36Speaker 1: too seriously, But then there are other times where I'm
- 19:39Speaker 1: just like, I don't know if they're trying like this.
- 19:43Speaker 1: I felt like a lot of the line delivery was
- 19:46Speaker 1: like high school play levels of cartoonish. There was a
- 19:51Speaker 1: sort of coldness between the characters that I couldn't pick
- 19:55Speaker 1: up on, like is it supposed Are you supposed to
- 19:58Speaker 1: feel that way because it's a who done it? And
- 20:01Speaker 1: anybody could could be the killer? Yeah, and you're not
- 20:03Speaker 1: supposed to get too cozy with any of these characters.
- 20:07Speaker 1: I don't know. It kind of felt like I was
- 20:09Speaker 1: in a bit of purgatory watching this film, like I
- 20:11Speaker 1: don't know, I don't know quite what I'm watching. If
- 20:14Speaker 1: this is just supposed to be fun and let's let's
- 20:17Speaker 1: let go and just just roll with it, or if
- 20:20Speaker 1: I'm supposed to really be focusing in and looking for
- 20:22Speaker 1: clues and paying deep attention.
- 20:25Speaker 2: I kind of saw it as like a kind of
- 20:27Speaker 2: a zany comedy. I think a wacky mind came came
- 20:33Speaker 2: to mind because I think everybody is sort of really
- 20:36Speaker 2: playing up their character. Yeah, there sometimes one one needs
- 20:42Speaker 2: to be more subtle, and then other times it's like
- 20:44Speaker 2: everybody is just trying to see like can I go
- 20:48Speaker 2: over the more over the top than they are. Yeah.
- 20:53Speaker 2: I just kind of saw it as like almost like
- 20:54Speaker 2: a like a screwball like farce, Like it's just a
- 20:58Speaker 2: they have the name and they've got the characters. But
- 21:01Speaker 2: then I honestly I didn't think. I think it was
- 21:05Speaker 2: almost like a just absurd take on a classic game. Yeah,
- 21:13Speaker 2: and I don't really know what else you really could expect.
- 21:18Speaker 2: I mean I kind of feel like Clue in the
- 21:22Speaker 2: eighty five is sort of like what Minecraft movie is
- 21:25Speaker 2: this year, you know what I mean.
- 21:27Speaker 1: I like that. Yeah, it's ip yep, It's something.
- 21:30Speaker 2: Silly, and if you're fans of of the of the game,
- 21:35Speaker 2: you find enjoyment in it. Even though like it's not
- 21:38Speaker 2: a great it's not a great movie.
- 21:40Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 21:41Speaker 2: Now, I will say like Tim Curry I think is
- 21:43Speaker 2: a standout. I feel like he really fits in right there,
- 21:46Speaker 2: and he plays he plays the he plays the best
- 21:51Speaker 2: character in the best way.
- 21:54Speaker 1: Yeah, I would agree. I I jotted down watching this
- 21:58Speaker 1: Tim Curry is really the only heart and soul in
- 22:01Speaker 1: this thing.
- 22:01Speaker 2: Oh yeah, oh I would. I don't even think I
- 22:04Speaker 2: would have enjoyed it as much as I did without him,
- 22:06Speaker 2: Like he just seemed like and again you have what
- 22:09Speaker 2: Robert Mole, Christopher Lloyd. There's a bunch of people in it.
- 22:12Speaker 1: It was nice to see a younger Christopher Loye me too.
- 22:15Speaker 1: And he's still out there kicking. I just like he's
- 22:17Speaker 1: still he's still doing some some campy stuff like Spirit Halloween. Yeah.
- 22:21Speaker 2: Well he was just in Nobody too.
- 22:23Speaker 1: Yeah. So he's the king of camp.
- 22:25Speaker 2: Yeah he is. I so, yeah, I mean it's sort
- 22:29Speaker 2: of it's very harmless. I definitely see this as a
- 22:33Speaker 2: midnight movie. I totally get it. There's something about cult
- 22:37Speaker 2: following and Tim Curry.
- 22:38Speaker 1: I don't it's Yeah, well, I mean you talk about
- 22:41Speaker 1: the Rocky Horror Picture Show in nineteen seventy five. I
- 22:45Speaker 1: mean he has a pretty extensive you realize filmography from
- 22:48Speaker 1: the seventies, eighties, and nineties.
- 22:50Speaker 2: Clue is in forty fortieth year, while Rocky Horror is
- 22:54Speaker 2: on its fiftieth year.
- 22:55Speaker 1: That's crazy, man. I don't know that I've ever watched
- 22:58Speaker 1: the Rocky I always get the Rocky Horror Picture Show
- 23:01Speaker 1: and Little Shop of Horrors mixed up. For some reason.
- 23:04Speaker 2: You might get hate mail by admitting that.
- 23:07Speaker 1: Well, I've got the Rocky Horror Picture Show on DVD.
- 23:10Speaker 2: Sidewife and sister in law love Rocky Horror. Yeah, and
- 23:16Speaker 2: it's fine, ye know. I mean you do have to
- 23:20Speaker 2: keep in mind we're talking about the seventies here, and
- 23:22Speaker 2: I mean he does play a transvestite.
- 23:24Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 23:25Speaker 2: I don't know if you know that. There's a song
- 23:26Speaker 2: about it.
- 23:27Speaker 1: Well, I know our buddy Outdoor Sobro was Oh yeah,
- 23:31Speaker 1: he was him her doctor whatever the name is for
- 23:37Speaker 1: for Halloween one year. I'm sorry, I just got distracted
- 23:40Speaker 1: because I saw that Tim Curry was in the Hunt
- 23:42Speaker 1: for Red October.
- 23:43Speaker 2: Hey, listen, he is. He was in some serious movies.
- 23:46Speaker 1: And that surprises me. Home alone two lost in New York.
- 23:49Speaker 1: As I remember him from that Congo. I did not.
- 23:54Speaker 2: I remember him in Congo. Penny Wise, that's probably his
- 23:58Speaker 2: other big, big one.
- 24:01Speaker 1: How is that not? When did that come out?
- 24:03Speaker 2: Well? That's TV.
- 24:04Speaker 1: Oh it was TV. That's right, that's right. Yeah, I
- 24:08Speaker 1: forgot he was. He played long John Silver in Muppet
- 24:10Speaker 1: Treasure Island, The Best Treasure Island. That was awesome. He
- 24:14Speaker 1: played Gomez Adams in Adams Family Reunion. Oh, he was
- 24:18Speaker 1: in Charlie's Angels Scary Movie too. I forgot he was
- 24:21Speaker 1: in Scary Movie too. He was in Kinsey in two
- 24:25Speaker 1: thousand and four Lim Neeson. Yeah, I don't remember doing that.
- 24:29Speaker 1: Don't remember that. And then he is in the documentary
- 24:34Speaker 1: as himself for Strange Journey, The Story of Rocky Horror.
- 24:40Speaker 2: Well now he still does. And I know he did
- 24:41Speaker 2: a lot of voice work on TV, and I'm guessing.
- 24:43Speaker 1: He still has a million TV credits.
- 24:46Speaker 2: And he had a stroke or something. But he is
- 24:48Speaker 2: in a wheelchair. But I know he's doing better because
- 24:50Speaker 2: I've seen him. It's a lot of these what they're
- 24:53Speaker 2: not they're they're not comic cons. They're like for horror stuff.
- 24:58Speaker 1: Yeah, I know what you're talking about.
- 25:00Speaker 2: He makes he's doing okay. I guess, but yeah, he
- 25:05Speaker 2: he is the he is the life of the party
- 25:09Speaker 2: and clue. I just don't think it works, which I
- 25:13Speaker 2: mean that character that's kind of meant, you know, everybody's
- 25:16Speaker 2: kind of, you know, circling around him. You know, he's
- 25:22Speaker 2: the son and everybody else is doing their thing. But
- 25:25Speaker 2: but yeah, I mean again, it's just a it just
- 25:28Speaker 2: blew my mind what happened.
- 25:30Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I was fine. I had no idea he
- 25:35Speaker 1: was the voice of Nigel Thornberry and the Wild Thornberry's
- 25:38Speaker 1: and now I can't Oh yeah, yeah, when I think
- 25:42Speaker 1: about Nigel Thornberry a lot of Nickelodeon shows, I mean
- 25:46Speaker 1: he he has, My goodness, I had no idea Tim
- 25:51Speaker 1: Curry had such a filmography.
- 25:53Speaker 2: Well voice, yea, but yes, such a body of work.
- 25:58Speaker 2: I should say, you know what, you can't really mistake that. No,
- 26:01Speaker 2: you can't like once you once you hear it.
- 26:03Speaker 1: Yeah, but he's but to me, he was kind of
- 26:08Speaker 1: the centerpiece.
- 26:09Speaker 2: Yes, he he definitely is, and he's that in Rocky Horror. Yeah,
- 26:14Speaker 2: I mean he's yeah. He It's kind of funny because
- 26:17Speaker 2: I don't think a lot of people realize just how
- 26:19Speaker 2: much of them what's the word, just kind of how
- 26:27Speaker 2: much he like the charisma and everything that he brings
- 26:33Speaker 2: to these characters. Yeah, and again I know he's I mean,
- 26:38Speaker 2: I would say penny Wise and Rocky Horror is probably
- 26:40Speaker 2: his two big ones for most people. But but yeah,
- 26:45Speaker 2: I just I remember telling my wife while we were
- 26:47Speaker 2: watching Clue, I'm like, if Tim Curry seems to just
- 26:51Speaker 2: kind of be connected to like what kind of movie
- 26:57Speaker 2: this is and what his role is and I and
- 26:59Speaker 2: it makes the movie more enjoyable than I think it
- 27:05Speaker 2: would be if you had Even if someone else, like
- 27:07Speaker 2: if one of the other actors, like if they if
- 27:10Speaker 2: a couple of them switched characters, I don't think it
- 27:13Speaker 2: would play the same. And I honestly, I just I
- 27:16Speaker 2: don't even know if I would have been as entertained.
- 27:19Speaker 1: I think there were some good, good filmmaking aspects to
- 27:25Speaker 1: this thing. I don't want to just completely shit all
- 27:28Speaker 1: over Clue and I the way I've told it to people,
- 27:31Speaker 1: or the way I've explained my feelings about this film
- 27:34Speaker 1: to people is that it's not a good movie. But
- 27:36Speaker 1: I love it because I've watched this thing like three times.
- 27:39Speaker 1: It is a great It is a great like movie
- 27:45Speaker 1: night film where like you can put something on you
- 27:48Speaker 1: pop some popcorn, you're not really paying attention. You might
- 27:50Speaker 1: have some other.
- 27:51Speaker 2: Stuff or something where you have like yet like eight
- 27:56Speaker 2: people over.
- 27:57Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, it's a good party movie.
- 27:59Speaker 2: For have to focus. Yeah, no, one has to be quiet.
- 28:03Speaker 1: Two people are having sex under a point k. Yeah,
- 28:05Speaker 1: on the other side of the road.
- 28:06Speaker 2: Exactly.
- 28:07Speaker 1: You're trying to clean the uh nacho cheese you just
- 28:10Speaker 1: spilt on the couch. Right, There's a bunch of stuff
- 28:13Speaker 1: going on, I get it.
- 28:14Speaker 2: Yeah, And who better than Tim Curry to lead.
- 28:17Speaker 1: You through that, That's what I'm saying.
- 28:18Speaker 2: I was looking at so Jonathan lynn Is who directed this,
- 28:23Speaker 2: and I was thinking he directed some other stuff, which
- 28:25Speaker 2: he did stuff I actually know my cousin Vinny.
- 28:28Speaker 1: Oh wow, that's a that's a title I haven't heard
- 28:31Speaker 1: in a while.
- 28:32Speaker 2: Sergeant Bilko, remember that, Steve Martin.
- 28:35Speaker 1: Yeah, she's got some chops.
- 28:38Speaker 2: One of the last things he did. It seems like
- 28:40Speaker 2: he stopped. He did a little bit TV. But is
- 28:43Speaker 2: the whole nine yards?
- 28:44Speaker 1: That's that's a good film.
- 28:46Speaker 2: And the Fighting Temptations I never saw that with Cuba
- 28:49Speaker 2: gunning Junior and Beyonce and then something called Wild Target,
- 28:56Speaker 2: and then Yes, Prime Minister in twenty thirteen. Seems like
- 29:00Speaker 2: a lot of writing, and he does have some other stuff.
- 29:02Speaker 2: He's still around, but yeah, but honestly, before that, he
- 29:08Speaker 2: did one movie in eighty three called Arms and the Man,
- 29:12Speaker 2: and then Clue was his second feature. Arms in the
- 29:16Speaker 2: Man had Richard Bryars Peter Egan. That was it, and
- 29:24Speaker 2: actually he was a co director, So it looks like that.
- 29:29Speaker 2: I think Klue may have been his first solo.
- 29:32Speaker 1: It's quite the debut then quite the first feature, if
- 29:37Speaker 1: you will, But I do think like.
- 29:39Speaker 2: He Sorry, he wrote the screenplay along as the story
- 29:42Speaker 2: was by John Landis damn yep. And then Anthony E.
- 29:46Speaker 2: Pratt in case anyone knows he's uncredited, he did the
- 29:49Speaker 2: board game.
- 29:51Speaker 1: Man. What about that? Are you surprised they haven't tried
- 29:55Speaker 1: to reboot this?
- 29:56Speaker 2: Yeah? I am, And have they not?
- 30:01Speaker 1: Well, they made the sequel in nineteen ninety five called Clueless. Oh,
- 30:08Speaker 1: I get it, But I know I've been a little
- 30:12Speaker 1: hard on this movie. In this episode, I do enjoy it,
- 30:15Speaker 1: and I do think there are some like good filmmaking
- 30:18Speaker 1: aspects of it. I love the house itself, the setting,
- 30:23Speaker 1: I think it does a good job of looking both
- 30:27Speaker 1: majestic and conveying that sense of like royalty. You know,
- 30:32Speaker 1: this is a wealthy elite that lives here. But at
- 30:36Speaker 1: the same time, I do think they make it look
- 30:39Speaker 1: quite haunting. And I think the storm coming at the
- 30:43Speaker 1: beginning of the film, the guests are arriving as it's
- 30:46Speaker 1: pouring down rain, thunder and lightning. I thought that was
- 30:49Speaker 1: a really interesting bit of foreshadowing, like, oh, the storm
- 30:53Speaker 1: to come. I think it adds to there's kind of
- 30:57Speaker 1: like an old school storytelling quality to it, where it's like,
- 31:02Speaker 1: on a dark and stormy night and yes, a fancy
- 31:06Speaker 1: mansion like I thought I.
- 31:07Speaker 2: Was watching those fat Yeah, it could have been.
- 31:10Speaker 1: It could have been. So, I mean, there were things
- 31:12Speaker 1: that that I really liked about it. I liked I
- 31:16Speaker 1: felt like it was a good testament to the fun
- 31:18Speaker 1: nature of actually playing the game, like.
- 31:21Speaker 2: It's Yes, I think that's its biggest strength. Is it
- 31:24Speaker 2: literally is going like you're they're the pieces.
- 31:29Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, it kind of feels like, you know, when
- 31:33Speaker 1: you're sitting down to play the game, it's like you're
- 31:35Speaker 1: not trying to solve an actual murder. The point is right,
- 31:39Speaker 1: you're having fun with your family and friends. And that's
- 31:41Speaker 1: kind of what the spirit of this movie feels like
- 31:44Speaker 1: as well, even.
- 31:45Speaker 2: Like the murder, I mean what this is like PG,
- 31:47Speaker 2: I mean, it's it, it does, it knows what it is.
- 31:52Speaker 2: I think this movie I would hate if it was
- 31:55Speaker 2: not so self aware of what it's doing and what
- 31:59Speaker 2: it's based on.
- 31:59Speaker 1: Ye. I will say the look and the sound of
- 32:04Speaker 1: the film kind of felt a little behind the times,
- 32:07Speaker 1: like it came out in nineteen eighty five. You could
- 32:10Speaker 1: have said nineteen sixty five, and I wouldn't have argued
- 32:12Speaker 1: with it.
- 32:13Speaker 2: But you know what I'm like, But is it like
- 32:16Speaker 2: I don't want to say on purpose, but I almost
- 32:18Speaker 2: feel like in the the era it's playing in that
- 32:22Speaker 2: maybe they wanted to give it sort of that look
- 32:24Speaker 2: and feel. I might be giving it more credit than
- 32:27Speaker 2: it does.
- 32:27Speaker 1: Well, but I mean you also think like it didn't
- 32:30Speaker 1: have that big of a budget either.
- 32:33Speaker 2: Well true, true, yeah, And if this is which Corn
- 32:37Speaker 2: IMDb it is his director's first times as a solo,
- 32:42Speaker 2: he probably can't get that much. And then like who
- 32:44Speaker 2: all's really famous in eighty five? Right?
- 32:48Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 32:49Speaker 2: Because I don't think Christopher Lloyd. I don't think he's
- 32:51Speaker 2: done Back to the Future yet, but I think he's
- 32:53Speaker 2: on his way.
- 32:53Speaker 1: Let's see, let's cause I've got his filmography pulled up.
- 32:58Speaker 1: Let's see. No, Back to the Future was nineteen eighty five.
- 33:01Speaker 1: It was the same year.
- 33:02Speaker 2: Oh okay, oh so he oh they got him, they
- 33:05Speaker 2: got him cheap.
- 33:06Speaker 1: Yeah that way.
- 33:06Speaker 2: Then he blew up. I was thinking it was done
- 33:09Speaker 2: in eighty five or eighty six.
- 33:10Speaker 1: Yeah, and then Part two and Part three were eighty
- 33:13Speaker 1: nine and ninety yeah.
- 33:15Speaker 2: So yeah, nobody really knew him.
- 33:17Speaker 1: Man, he was in some some real some real classics
- 33:23Speaker 1: of the era. Who framed Roger Rabbit? Oh yeah, the
- 33:28Speaker 1: Adams Family. I forgot he was Uncle Fester. He was
- 33:31Speaker 1: in Dennis the Menace. Yeah, Angels in the Outfield. How
- 33:35Speaker 1: could we forget the page master yep, man, that's a
- 33:40Speaker 1: that's a filmography.
- 33:41Speaker 2: Yeah, it is. Just so you know, there is a
- 33:47Speaker 2: new clue coming, Is that right? Yes? And you know what,
- 33:51Speaker 2: I feel kind of foolish because I remember reading it,
- 33:53Speaker 2: because I saw who was in it, and I remember so.
- 33:57Speaker 2: First of all, it looks like the direct is he
- 34:02Speaker 2: has done the Muppets and Muppets most wanted. He's done
- 34:06Speaker 2: Flight of the Concords, some Percy Jackson's stuff, Dora and
- 34:11Speaker 2: the Dora the Explorer. So he's done some stuff looks
- 34:15Speaker 2: like Flight of the Concords, the Alig's Show. He's done
- 34:17Speaker 2: a lot of stuff. His name is James Boben. But
- 34:22Speaker 2: Ryan Reynolds and Jason Bateman are scheduled to be in that.
- 34:27Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I don't know how I feel about Ryan
- 34:30Speaker 1: Reynolds right now.
- 34:32Speaker 2: I don't either, to be honest with you.
- 34:34Speaker 1: That I'm gonna be honest. Jason Bateman might be enough
- 34:37Speaker 1: to move the needle for me. Ryan Reynolds kind of
- 34:40Speaker 1: pulls it back in the other direction. Right now. I
- 34:43Speaker 1: think we're a little Ryan Reynolds doubt if you will.
- 34:48Speaker 2: Well, you know what, a new movie remake with Ryan
- 34:51Speaker 2: Renolds Jason Bateman is not moving forward. The project was
- 34:55Speaker 2: reportedly stalled after the Disney acquisition of twentieth Century Fox
- 34:59Speaker 2: and a shift and Hasbro's strategy for the property.
- 35:03Speaker 1: How about that? So there it'll it'll happen.
- 35:07Speaker 2: It was from a remake with them in twentieth Century
- 35:10Speaker 2: Steis and a script by the Deadpool writers that ended
- 35:12Speaker 2: up not moving forward. And then, as you talked about
- 35:16Speaker 2: in August at Cinemark Theaters was just the fortieth anniversary,
- 35:22Speaker 2: and that's what is happening in Each screening featured one
- 35:26Speaker 2: of the film's three original alternate ending. So, yeah, I
- 35:30Speaker 2: think I think it's on its way. Apparently it clearly
- 35:33Speaker 2: is in they're trying so, but not yet, not yet.
- 35:43Speaker 2: And you know what, I don't know if i'd want
- 35:44Speaker 2: to see Ryan Reynolds and Deadpool writers really with that. Yeah,
- 35:47Speaker 2: I think I'd like to see something a little different.
- 35:49Speaker 1: But Robert Eggers does clue?
- 35:52Speaker 2: I mean that would be nice, you know.
- 35:55Speaker 1: So an interesting couple of tidbits before we get on
- 35:58Speaker 1: out of here. Carrie Fisher was supposed to portray Miss Scarlett.
- 36:04Speaker 1: Oh ow, I could see that absolutely, but Withdrew because
- 36:08Speaker 1: she had to go to rehab.
- 36:09Speaker 2: Oh well.
- 36:11Speaker 1: And then Jonathan Lynn's first choice for Wadsworth, which is
- 36:15Speaker 1: the Tim Curry character, was Leonard Rossiter, who I'm not
- 36:21Speaker 1: not familiar with, an English actor, long career in theater,
- 36:26Speaker 1: but was he actually passed away before filming. So his
- 36:32Speaker 1: second choice was Rowan Atkinson for that role, but they
- 36:38Speaker 1: decided that nobody knew who he was, so they got
- 36:43Speaker 1: Tim Curry because he was a little more well known
- 36:45Speaker 1: at the time, could have been.
- 36:52Speaker 2: But Tim Kurr again with everything we said, Tim that
- 36:54Speaker 2: was that movie was blessed by Tim Korea.
- 37:01Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, so it's kind of kind of interesting. It
- 37:05Speaker 1: looks like, Man, it looks like they were trying to
- 37:09Speaker 1: remake or reboot Clue for years. Gor Verbinski had apparently
- 37:14Speaker 1: started developing one in two thousand and nine that got dropped.
- 37:19Speaker 1: Then we had the the Ryan Reynolds Jason Bateman thing.
- 37:23Speaker 1: Sounds like they are There's been a few stage adaptations
- 37:28Speaker 1: for theater. It sounds like they're trying to get this
- 37:31Speaker 1: thing off the ground.
- 37:33Speaker 2: And if Hasbro has a say in it, which obviously
- 37:35Speaker 2: they do, then that could also throw a wrench in it.
- 37:38Speaker 2: Yeah as well, but it'll happen.
- 37:41Speaker 1: All in all. I gave this one a two out
- 37:43Speaker 1: of five. It was kind of hard for me to
- 37:45Speaker 1: overlook some of the silliness of it, but I do
- 37:48Speaker 1: still think that this is a fun movie to put
- 37:50Speaker 1: on on a dark and stormy night when you don't
- 37:53Speaker 1: have anything to do. You don't have you don't need
- 37:56Speaker 1: to focus too much. Like the first time I watched
- 38:00Speaker 1: this was actually literally on a cold night in October
- 38:06Speaker 1: when it was raining outside and there was nothing on
- 38:08Speaker 1: and I saw a clue. Oh, this kind of feels nice.
- 38:12Speaker 1: It's not gonna get my blood pressure up like a
- 38:14Speaker 1: horror movie, yep, but it's gonna have just enough of
- 38:17Speaker 1: those freaky kind of vibes that it's it's a vibe movie.
- 38:21Speaker 2: It is.
- 38:21Speaker 1: Yes, it's where I land on it.
- 38:23Speaker 2: And the atmosphere and everything does play a nice part,
- 38:26Speaker 2: and it's you know that one location and it's a
- 38:28Speaker 2: great location or you know set whatever. Yeah. Yeah, Like
- 38:33Speaker 2: it's I almost just appreciate it because I think it's
- 38:37Speaker 2: very in touch with its goofiness. But also, I mean,
- 38:45Speaker 2: you're adapting it from a board game. Like I said,
- 38:47Speaker 2: it's like the Minecrad. I mean, what do you what
- 38:49Speaker 2: do you really expect from you? You know what I mean?
- 38:51Speaker 2: But I actually I like the cast. Obviously Tim you know,
- 38:55Speaker 2: Tim Curry to me, was the MVP. But but I
- 38:58Speaker 2: feel like they all they all kind of knew what that.
- 39:03Speaker 2: You know. There's always these movies where it's like, oh,
- 39:04Speaker 2: they were in a completely different movie. I don't know
- 39:07Speaker 2: if any of them were. I think all of them
- 39:10Speaker 2: pretty much new the type of movie this was gonna
- 39:13Speaker 2: be the Shenanigans. They were going to get into how
- 39:16Speaker 2: they were going to play it up, and I think
- 39:18Speaker 2: that's just what is. But yeah, it was very much
- 39:21Speaker 2: a vibe that, like I said, I'm thankful for for Tim.
- 39:28Speaker 1: Yeah, well that's gonna do it for us, unless you've
- 39:31Speaker 1: got anything else to add.
- 39:33Speaker 2: H I probably won't ever watch it again, but never again. No,
- 39:37Speaker 2: I will probably play Clue. Before I watched Clue.
- 39:40Speaker 1: We're gonna play Clue after Thanksgiving. Will says one, Yeah,
- 39:45Speaker 1: we're gonna.
- 39:45Speaker 2: We'll see.
- 39:46Speaker 1: I've got to get my money's worth out of that
- 39:48Speaker 1: game that I've waught.
- 39:50Speaker 2: We get at least unwrap it.
- 39:51Speaker 1: Well, that's gonna do it for us again. All of
