  Speaker 1: animosity introduction sees them struggle to achieve their goal. Yeah,
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: who wrote that? I don't care? Okay, sorry, I just
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: I can't get it up for this movie. Let me
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: hit you with some news and notes. Director Scott Smith

• 1:56
  Speaker 1: TV series, but also the Story of Us Autumn, The
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: The Gourmy Detective, and Signed Seal Delivered for Hallmark.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: This movie was written by Rick German. Would you say
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: German or German? I'd see German right.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Yes. He has tons of Homemark movies, including Christmas at Castle,
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: Heart Groundswell, two Christmas and Evergreen movies, and A Shoe
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Attics Christmas are among his twenty seven writing credits, but
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: most recently A Christmas Present, the CCB GAF Holiday movie.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Is he working for them? You know? Exclusively? Now you
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: ask a lot of questions. I don't know. I'm sorry,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: I don't know either. Rachel Lee Cook also gets a
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: writing credit, and I was curious that she written more,
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: but no, this is the only writing credit on her resume,
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: although she does have one hundred to acting credits, most
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: recently on Netflix's A Tourist Guide Till She's done tons
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: of Hallmark. But let's be honest, she's always gonna be
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Lady Boggs from She's All That to me. Okay, I
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: have a question here.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: When an actor who's never written anything else is like,
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna write a Hallmark script today and then basically
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: throws like everything in the blender.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: That's what I feel like this movie was about. Like,
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: she's just like the same page there. Friend. It's like
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: I can do it. I can do it, it can
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: do it. True trope trope trope, Yes, you can do it,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: you can do and I believe in you.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: Nope, Nile Mayer, I don't know why I get hung up.
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: It's it's now imprinted in my brain about his name anyway,
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: He plays hockey bad boy Adam Claiborne. He has fifty
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: two acting credits, and we most recently liked him in
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: the Family History Mysteries movie, which I hope we get
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: another one.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's in her DNA. I liked that movie and
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: I liked him in that movie. Wowie Zowie Victor's Inc.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Junior is back for the second week in a row
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: in a supporting role as teammate Chuck Foreman. I mean
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: talk about type cast.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: Last week, he's a football player, this week he's a
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: hockey player.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: And in both cases I liked him better than the lade. Well,
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: you liked him better than Adam. Yeah, okay, all right,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: he's fine, we'll get to it. Okay, you're gonna have
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: to do the next one is that Keith mckeckney plays
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: dad Paul Campbell. And if he looks familiar to you
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: where he plays dad named Paul Campbell. Yeah, you wait.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: Mary's name was Mary Campbell, Mary and Tyler Campbell. Okay,
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: the dad's name is Paul Campbell.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: Yes, And if he looks familiar, it's because he has
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: one hundred two acting credits, including, most notably to me,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: he played the delivery boy in National Lampoon's Vacation. He
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: knucks in the door and he's like a delivery for
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Clark w Brisbane. I'm sory it pull between the seeds.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Siliver's the jelly of the month club soups description. Clark
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: thinks it's his Christmas bonus. Was he a teenager. He
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: was young. I mean that movie's thirty plus years old. Yep,
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, that's funny. Did you recognize him? No?
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: But the second I saw it, I was like, that's
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: who it is. That's who it is. Madison Smith plays
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: brother Tyler Campbell. That's it. That's the note. Yeah, maybe
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: I ran out of news and notes, seamen. Finally, this
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: was filmed in Vancouver. What's your first impression of Frozen
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: in Love?
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: Well, this is another PR rehab movie for sports guy
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: who bugs out?
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: That's your first impression? Yeah? Is this movie a collection
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: of short films? Let's talk about what we liked. Compliment
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: sandwich time. Okay, go ahead and you go. This might
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: be my favorite Nile Mater role. I like him as
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: a bad boy better than the DNA one. I like
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: the DNA one too, but I like him as a
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: bad boy. He was like bad boy light sure, Hallmark
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: bad boy, bad boy, Hallmark style, family friendly, bad boy
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: sounds funny, put that on a shirt.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: So you like him as a bad boy who doesn't
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: look like that.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Bad of a boy. That's why I liked him. He
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: wasn't a jerk. He was likable.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: Okay, because I have to go back to the never
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: kiss a guy in a Christmas never kiss a man
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: in a Christmas watchir or whatever sweatshirt.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: Christmas hoodie. He was so unlikeable Holiday hoodie. He was
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: so unlikable in that movie. Yeah. I liked him. Okay,
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Well I didn't hate him either. I wrote that I
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: have really.
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: Come around to him, and I didn't think he was
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: exceptional in this movie, especially because it's an older movie.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: I think he's I have found him to be more
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: likable in his last movie that he was in, right, Like,
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: I feel like he's actor.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Yes, Hey, hot take. I think the hockey promo item
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: that they came up with actually pretty cool. The scarf, Yeah,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: with her branding on it makes sense. I was like, hey,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: nicely done. You got a promotional situation that actually makes sense.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Don't even get me started on their podcast you couldna.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: Talk about that, but the scarf, Yes, I agree, it
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: was nicely done. And the PR person was like, oh,
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: it was all his idea. Did he have to talk
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: to like the marketing team at the ice hockey team
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: people like, I'm sure, but there did he put the
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: bill for this?
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: Yes? And I'm sure they have a set price. You know,
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: you go to a baseball game and you get the
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: hat with like the radio station on it. Right, I'm
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: sure these teams have a set price to get your
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: logo on a promo item. You think he just paid
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: for it. Yeah, paid for the logo plus the item.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: I think that's what he did.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Not a bad idea, not at all, not a bad idea.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: But we are going to talk about that podcast. So
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: I did not hate when Adam shows at the live
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: podcast that they do where he shows up behind her
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: as a surprise and he wants to talk about Tom Sawyer.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that was cute. It was cute. Agree, and you
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: know she was like hoping he'd chop and he did. Yeah. Hey,
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: adult conversations were had. He finds out that his work
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: party conflicts with her promotional event and just talks to
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: her about it. Doesn't like really hold on too long.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: He has a real conversation and she's like, yeah, dude,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: you gotta go to that.
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but doesn't he have like an agent or somebody
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: who could help like work these things out?
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: What was there to work out? His boss was like
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: you gotta show up and schmooth these people because they're mad.
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: At you, but he also committed to this other thing.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: He's on the promotional flyer for it.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: I think I think people would be like, whoa, that's
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: a big bait and switch. I thought this hockey dude
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: was going to be here and like suddenly he can't
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: be here to I'm.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Here, Adam, screw your dumb books. Yes, good point. Yes, uh.
• 9:04
  Speaker 2: I thought Mary's parents were very understanding when they were
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: sitting around the dinner table and like Mary's freaking out
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: about the bookstore potentially having to close, and they're like, this.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: Was a reality. Yeah, we don't put that on your shoulders.
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: We knew that was gonna happen. You know. They were
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: very nice and they were like, honestly, we kind of
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: passed this along to you so we wouldn't have to
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: be the one bookstore.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: Mary wish three things wished for The movie title is
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: so dumb Frozen in love. Frozen gives me like ice
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: hotel vibes. Yeah, like frozen in love. He's a hockey player.
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: A majority of this movie takes place in a bookstore. Yes,
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: not at the hockey arena. So what's there to be
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: frozen about?
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: Yes? Dumb? Make it a book pon the page something
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: like that. Yeah, something love on the page is not it?
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: But could then come up with an odder pairing than
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: the struggle bookstore and the hockey bad boy with a
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: rep to polish up. It's bizarre again. This is another
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: one of those Hallmark Roulette sip in the wheel, give
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: me a give me a small business, yes, give me
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: a person boom. I mean they make it make sense, like,
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: oh I love Tom Sawyer, but come on, that's a
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: reach deep. Also, what why does she need to learn
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: to play hockey? She doesn't, she I wrote, she doesn't.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: She doesn't need to learn, Like why so she has
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: a better understanding of who this dude is. Cares? Yeah,
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: who cares? I'm not leaning. I was going to say,
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: do you go to work with your husband my husband?
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: I used to do the job my husband does, But
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: I don't feel the need to go sit in and learn.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: I mean, go watch his games. If you're with it,
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: you don't need to learn to play.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no, dumb, Hey, justice for Devin Alexander. Now, I
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: don't know if you know who I'm talking about. He's
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: credited as the vendor. He is a dude that was
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: selling coffee from the like coffee cart thing we've seen
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: him in it, and a lot of stuff including the
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: Santa steakout loving Glacier National. It's a due time this
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: guy gets a leading role. I agree, I recognized his face,
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: but this movie, again, was back in twenty eighteen. He's
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: done a lot of work since then, so hopefully we're
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: like getting to that.
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he played like an assistant with a bigger role
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: in more recent movies. The we don't serve coffee bit
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: is not cute. No, like, we don't have coffee and
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: he's like, oh, I'll go to boy a book. We're
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: they don't serve coffee. Dude, it's not funny.
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: You're so funny. That's funny that you have that take
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: because I think she was a super bitch in that scene.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: Yes, but he says I'd like a cup of coffee
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: and she's like, we don't sell coffee.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: I know, but she could have been more friendly and
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: been like, she has her own cup of coffee there,
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: which leads me to believe there's either a cuig or
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: a pot of coffee brewing someplace, and she would be like.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: I mean, someone comes in and wants to buy coffee,
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: and I'm supposed to make them coffee from the bag.
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: And I would just be like, oh, why don't you
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: look around a little bit and I'll go get you
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: a cup.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: Of coffee, and then maybe he's going to buy a book. Okay,
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: I hear you. Small business vibes, do whatever you gotta
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: do to get the sale. I just felt like he
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: was so in his own head about this place needs
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: to have the thing I wanted to have, because I've
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: decided it's gonna have the thing, like a bookstore sells coffee.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: And when she tells you to your face, we don't
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: sell coffee, and you are just so in your head
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: about clearly I must be right here that you don't
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: let it go. He was not worthy of her making
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: him a cup of coffee. These are two problematic people here.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you. I didn't love Mary M. Stubborn
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: wouldn't listen to her brother MMM, who was truly worried about.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: The business right, And she just was like putting in
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: her head in the sand about it. Yes, she was rude,
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: and I know it all.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: I don't like people who feel like they're elitists because
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: they read books, gave me. I'll look. I don't find
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: myself to be elitist, and I would like to point
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: out that the vast majority of the books I read
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: are light, fluffy, distraction reads. I do not consider myself
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: well read in spite of the fact that I read
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: a lot, So I'm not a book elitist. J joking.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: I am joking, but that's how she came off well
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: as a counterbalance to my We don't serve coffee isn't cute,
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: I will tell you. I also don't find the complete
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: ignorance about what sports are to be cute either. Hate it.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: I think it's fine if you don't care about sports,
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: but when people are like, oh, you play hockey, do
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: you get any touchdowns? Come on, yeah, just don't. There
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: are lots of things I don't know, and I think
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: it's belittling when they do it. And if there's something
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: that I don't like, I don't try and tear it down, like, oh,
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: I couldn't be bothered to know anything about that, So yeah,
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: find it amusing. I didn't like it.
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: I don't believe that she and him are a match
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: at all. They're both stubborn people like that is not
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: going to work.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: Out he's the nicer one in this relationship. I agree,
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: Like I could see falling for him. He's kind of
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: got some sweet moments, but Mary sucks. You know. I
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: don't think Rachel Lee Cook is super comfortable in this
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: role of uptight bookseller, like she wrote the Damn movie.
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: I understand, but I don't know that this was the
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: role for her, because I think maybe she's this was
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: her trying to break out. Now. She has worked a
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: lot since she's all that. She's all that is kind
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: of a blip in the middle of her one hundred
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: four acting credit. She's done a lot, but I think
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: she's like, Oh, I'm this silly, goofy high school student
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: and now she's like, I have to play this serious
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: role to break out from it. And yeah, I don't
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: think that.
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: Had the desired effect. Agree, she has two children. This
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: whole thing. I was wondering how old she was. Not
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: that mad She's currently forty three, and this obviously was
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: a couple of years ago, so she was late thirties.
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: I just don't like when they make these women of
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: a certain age, she'd be like spinsters, Like she's just
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: like this moby bookstore owner who probably has cats and pillows.
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: It's just do you know what I mean? Yeah, And
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: she's taking the weight of the world on her own
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: shoulders when nobody was asking her to do that, because
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: we learned her parents are perfectly lovely humans. And her
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: brother is showing up for her even though he has
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: his other stuff going on. You know, She's like, you've
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: got your own things going on. He still continues to
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: show up right for her? And the bookstore right.
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: Hey, I did not hate the idea of the cute
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: little coffee van outside me either, real cute mm hmm.
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: I would love like just in my little neighborhood, like
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: have a coffee RV.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: Outside your local bookstore. Oh, I got a Barnes and
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: Noble and there's a Starbucks in size I know, you
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: know I like the cute little van too. What do
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: you have for dig just see that? Well, let's talk
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: about this podcast, okay. One, they're so far off from
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: the microphone. Oh it it's on a table. Oh I
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: didn't I didn't even notice. Second, this podcast apparently has
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: two episodes. She's like, we're getting so many downloads, as
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: if podcasts downloads happen in real time. You need one
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: of two episodes to be a successful podcast, especially if
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: you're some random small bookstore. I understand that they had
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: this like celebrity attached and so that's just again I'm
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: begging somebody to talk to anybody who knows about these
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: things when they add them to their movies. There was
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: also the pr agent kept saying something about like how
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: this whole big event was going.
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: To be a paradigm chef for them, right right, And
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: she's like, you're giving the likes on social media, like
• 16:57
  Speaker 2: that's still not going to get people into your store, right,
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: That does not change anything.
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: Yes, I do think that a book podcast run by
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: a bookstore is a great idea, like talk about books
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: and be like here's a link to our website. Come by, right,
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: we talk about books, and we're gonna have a live
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: event with this author. That's a great idea to see.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: People don't really have any idea how podcasting were. Right.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: Also, the pr agent says at the end, you're trending.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: I was like on where what on Twitter?
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: Like locally She's like it's a good thing. Oh god.
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: I just hate that they feel like they have to
• 17:35
  Speaker 2: dumb down all this stuff for the people who like
• 17:38
  Speaker 2: don't understand how social media.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: Works or whatever.
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: I just can't stand it, and I hate when it's inaccurate, Like,
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: can you please just somebody get somebody in there who
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: knows what they're talking about?
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: Like you said, mm hmmm, did this bookstore look more
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: like a library than a bookstore for you? It's just
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: so dark. It was so drab.
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: I'm like, please, Like if they would have done like
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: a makeover instead, I would have been far more interested.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: Put some skylights in that bad something.
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: It was so outdated and there was nothing that looked
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: like a bookstore.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: It was just shelves of books. Nothing was on display,
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: nothing was excited. Yeah, merchandise it. Hey, if you are
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: a suspended professional athlete, do you not still have to
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: like sit in on practice and attend the games or
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: are you just like doing your own thing. That's a
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: good question. I don't know, I am.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: I was recently at a soccer game and one of
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: the soccer players on that team has been injured for months.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: She had surgery. She wasn't at the game. She wasn't
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: like on the bench like sitting there. I thought she
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: would be. But yeah, that's a good question, Like, I don't.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: You just get paid vacation. I don't know. I don't
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: know how it works either. Also, their little league hockey team,
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: the coaches, apparently gets front page press like, yeah, little
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: Cocky's getting front page. I guess, so, I guess. So.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: Okay, I have a did you see that that I
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: read off of IMDb? Okay, according to the fun facts
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: section in IMDb, do you ever scroll down? I don't
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: know who writes those anyway, it says, although this movie
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: is supposed to take place in the USA, when Adam
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: is giving his apology at the end of the movie
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: in the arena to the owner and the VIP section
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: ticket holders, you can see a maple leaf flag of
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: Canada behind him.
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: Well, I would push back on that. I would too.
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: Have you ever been to a hockey game? Yeah, they
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: show both flags, right, there's Canadian teams. Yeah, so that
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: could that could be not actually mistake? Yeah? Okay? Would
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: you rate this two stars?
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: For the number of times I fell asleep watching Guys?
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: I had to watch this movie over a course of
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: like four or five days, and we even pushed back
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: the recording of this episode because I had not finished it.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: I kept falling asleep. I gave it to and a half stars,
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: but I wanted to go back because I think I
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: left us hanging. I said, is this movie a collection
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: of short films? And what I meant by that is
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: this feels like a bunch of scenes loosely connected but
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: without full cohesion. It's like, let's do a podcast, let's
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: learn how to skate, let's coach a hockey team. There
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: just felt like all of these individual scenes in this
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: bookshop owner meets a hockey player world that don't form
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: a full movie.
• 20:32
  Speaker 2: Do you think that's because it comes from an inexperienced writer,
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: or do you think that somehow in the editing or
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: post production or whatever, it got like chopped up?
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: Well, to be clear, Rachel Lee Cook has a writing credit,
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: but Rick Jerman also wrote this, so perhaps it was
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: her story idea and he wrote the script and I
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: don't necessarily want to put all of that on him. Okay,
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: I don't know where it falls apart. Yeah, I don't
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: know where it falls apart. Perhaps it's on the actors
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: for not making me believe in their story more. Perhaps
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: it is a story problem, Perhaps it is an editing problem.
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: Perhaps it's a directing problem. I don't know. But I'm
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: just telling you it didn't feel like parts of a whole.
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: To me, I felt like parts of parts. I agree with.
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: You, and I'm sorry because there are so many like
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: Nile Meter fans out there, and maybe.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: That's because of this movie, which is interesting. They're like, oh,
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: you need to watch Frozen in Love because that's why
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: we love him. They also like Rip in Time too,
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: which we haven't seen. I know, so, I mean, I
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: would give his If.
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: If you're a Nile Meter fan in there, you think
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: there's a better movie for us to watch from him,
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: please email us, because I don't want to watch good movies.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: I did not think this movie was good. I agree
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: with you, Okay, June real strong, August struggling a little bit.
