Hello!
00:00:27
Happy Tuesday!
00:00:30
happiest of Tuesdays to you and everyone who's listening.
00:00:35
It's the best day of the week.
00:00:37
Mmm.
00:00:39
Yeah!
00:00:41
At the time of recording, it is also International Zebra Day.
00:00:46
Wow.
00:00:46
Fun fact that Bing just told me.
00:00:49
That's great, I hope everybody celebrated and I had a great time.
00:00:53
Yeah.
00:00:55
We are here to do- uh, welcome back to the Killer Kiddies Podcast.
00:00:59
Yeah, that is us.
00:01:00
Yeah.
00:01:03
to talk today about the 2019 movie Villains.
00:01:09
Sure are.
00:01:10
Which only Wikipedia categorizes as a horror movie, by the way.
00:01:14
really?
00:01:16
Yeah, not a lot of people characterize it as one.
00:01:18
I can see it.
00:01:19
I can see it both ways.
00:01:20
IMDB horror.
00:01:24
Letterboxx horror.
00:01:25
Katie, you didn't even look.
00:01:27
Well, Hulu, where I watched it, said drama comedy.
00:01:32
interesting.
00:01:34
Google doesn't say horror.
00:01:36
Drama comedy?
00:01:37
I would say like dark comedy, comedy horror, thriller.
00:01:43
Yeah.
00:01:46
Maybe it said thriller.
00:01:47
Drama, thriller.
00:01:49
Thriller, comedy.
00:01:50
Yeah, I mean my rule is that if at least one major place is categorizing it as a horror movie, we'll talk about it.
00:01:58
So...
00:01:59
And that's three.
00:02:01
So...
00:02:03
I am cleared, marked safe from it not being considered a horror movie.
00:02:10
But yeah, it's definitely light on the horror elements.
00:02:13
Yeah, yeah.
00:02:14
I mean, it does have a lot of I mean, we're getting to we're getting ahead of ourselves.
00:02:17
We're going to do news first.
00:02:18
But.
00:02:18
um
00:02:19
everybody shut up.
00:02:20
We're not there.
00:02:23
Just kidding.
00:02:25
Now I don't remember.
00:02:27
Oh, wow, well, I guess we just pack it up.
00:02:32
some callbacks to some horror films, for sure.
00:02:36
Yes.
00:02:37
Yeah.
00:02:38
So at the very least, there's that.
00:02:41
Okay, like I said, first we're gonna talk about news.
00:02:46
And we're gonna start with a sad one.
00:02:47
You're gonna, I'm not doing it.
00:02:49
Yeah.
00:02:51
I'm going to be a bit of a downer here real quick.
00:02:54
So we're actually recording this on quite a bit early, but we're recording it on the 31st of January.
00:03:01
Yesterday, it was obviously announced that Catherine O'Hara has passed away at the age of 71.
00:03:08
She's a two time Emmy winner.
00:03:10
Horror fans obviously know her from Beetlejuice and the sequel.
00:03:13
She was incredibly talented.
00:03:17
huge list of credits to her name.
00:03:19
Obviously, you know, she's done...
00:03:21
I don't know if she's really a scream queen.
00:03:24
I don't really know if like she's...
00:03:26
She's definitely not known for the horror genre, but I'm going to talk about it anyway because I think she was a fantastic talent and you know, she was in Home Alone.
00:03:35
She was in Frank-O-Weenie, Best in Show, The Nightmare Before Christmas.
00:03:39
Obviously, everybody knows her from Schitt's Creek.
00:03:42
She was also in The Last of Us, so...
00:03:45
She's just a very great talent, well-beloved.
00:03:50
I think everybody's sad.
00:03:53
Pretty much everything I saw was people just saying like, this is the last straw, like this is shit.
00:03:59
And I agree, it was not the news that we needed right now, but rest in peace, Catherine O'Hara, you will be missed.
00:04:08
Yeah, a big bummer.
00:04:11
Dylan came in and was like, don't look at TMZ.
00:04:13
And I was like, my God, is it John Williams?
00:04:16
And he's like, it's not arguably, uh definitely more unexpected.
00:04:23
Yeah.
00:04:25
I was actually surprised that I didn't even know she was 71.
00:04:28
She looked so much younger.
00:04:30
Yeah.
00:04:32
And 71 is still pretty young.
00:04:36
Yeah.
00:04:36
grand scheme of things.
00:04:39
Yep.
00:04:41
Okay, well rest in peace Catherine O'Hara, we will miss you.
00:04:45
Mm-hmm.
00:04:46
okay.
00:04:48
Moving on.
00:04:50
Every year, 25 films join the National Film Registry due to their cultural, historical, or aesthetic importance.
00:04:58
And this here, a very iconic horror film that I'm actually surprised is not already on this list, and we've reviewed on the podcast and made it to the list.
00:05:08
Do you know what it is?
00:05:08
It was one of our first episodes, probably first 10 episodes.
00:05:12
Well considering you said, here's the news I have and included the thing, I am gonna guess the thing.
00:05:18
However, also incredibly surprised that that was not already in there.
00:05:25
That's like one of THE horror movies.
00:05:28
Yeah.
00:05:29
Yeah, that one shocked me that it wasn't already on there.
00:05:32
um Did you see?
00:05:35
Yeah, well deserved.
00:05:35
Obviously, it had to be on there.
00:05:37
That's what we're saying.
00:05:38
We're surprised it wasn't on there because it deserved to be.
00:05:41
There were several interesting ones.
00:05:43
Not maybe not.
00:05:45
I was surprised for the other reason for like the opposite side of the spectrum that these three were on there, but three that we would be interested in knowing.
00:05:53
One is your favorite Jim Carrey movie.
00:05:56
The Truman Show?
00:05:57
Yeah, the Truman Show was added to the list.
00:06:00
As it should be.
00:06:01
Well, yeah, but it feels like new, like too new.
00:06:04
And the other two are even newer.
00:06:07
Your favorite Pixar movie.
00:06:09
Ratatouille.
00:06:10
Oh no, sorry.
00:06:12
Your second favorite Pixar movie?
00:06:15
It's one that I'm not particularly fond of.
00:06:17
I like it, but it's...
00:06:19
No.
00:06:20
I said I don't hate it.
00:06:22
I'm just not particularly...
00:06:23
I don't hate Wally either.
00:06:25
It's The Incredibles.
00:06:27
my god, I love the Incredibles!
00:06:29
know you do.
00:06:30
It's fine.
00:06:31
I like it.
00:06:32
I just don't like it.
00:06:34
I love how you know my favorites more than I do.
00:06:36
I'm like, what is it?
00:06:38
What could it could be?
00:06:40
Yeah, so the Incredibles is now part of National Film Registry.
00:06:42
And then one more.
00:06:46
It's a Hans Zimmer movie, and it's the reason people get into Hans Zimmer.
00:06:52
starring Leonardo DiCaprio.
00:06:54
not gotten Intoximer, there's no possible way for me to know.
00:06:59
I'm not even positive you've seen this film.
00:07:02
Oh, starring Leonardo DiCaprio?
00:07:05
And it's newer?
00:07:07
Oh, Inception?
00:07:08
Yeah.
00:07:10
Have you seen Inception?
00:07:11
How dare you, of course I've seen Inception.
00:07:15
I saw it in theaters, babe.
00:07:17
Yeah.
00:07:21
Not surprising.
00:07:22
Very unbranded.
00:07:24
a couple years ago.
00:07:27
Yeah, it was good.
00:07:29
Really good.
00:07:30
Yeah, great film.
00:07:32
Yeah, Christopher Nolan doesn't miss very often.
00:07:35
I can't think of a Christopher Nolan miss.
00:07:38
I'll have to have my head.
00:07:40
The only thing he misses on is writing complex female characters.
00:07:44
That's it.
00:07:45
That's his only downfall.
00:07:46
Excellent point.
00:07:47
Oh shoot.
00:07:50
Okay, so yeah, that's the National Film Registry.
00:07:51
Welcome to the National Film Registry of the Thing.
00:07:54
Nice, love it.
00:07:56
Alright, for me, next news.
00:07:59
Valentine's Day.
00:08:00
Well, by the time you're listening to this, fuck, because we're recording in advance.
00:08:04
Valentine's Day is this week, if you're listening.
00:08:09
God, we are recording.
00:08:11
For reference, Katie's gonna be gone for a week, and then my mom's coming to visit me, so we had to kind of, you know, record a little bit ahead of time, so.
00:08:19
That's why...
00:08:21
We're so far behind you guys.
00:08:23
my God, you guys probably don't even, you missed Zebra Day.
00:08:26
They have no concept of Zebra Day.
00:08:29
They're gonna realize it was two weeks ago.
00:08:31
That's crazy.
00:08:33
Anyways, Valentine's Day is this week and luckily Josh Rubin has completed a script for a sequel to Hard Eyes.
00:08:43
Obviously, I mean, you're not getting it right now, but it's apt Valentine's Day news because that movie came out around Valentine's Day.
00:08:50
And it's kind of considered like a rom-com horror, which I think is really fun.
00:08:55
Anyways, he has completed a script, so sequel for Harder is probably happening.
00:09:01
Last February when the movie came out, Rubin did share how he would kind of approach a sequel.
00:09:08
So we might have a little insight into what it might be.
00:09:13
But he basically said, I'll put it this way, you could replicate the structure of any great rom-com from his Girl Friday to Defending Your Life, and you could drop Hard Eyes
00:09:20
into the center of it just have him slash about.
00:09:23
So he's basically kind of saying he wants to make the classic formula of a rom-com like Bridget Jones or Love Actually, but then just throw in Hard Eyes and have him killing
00:09:34
people.
00:09:34
And that's the background, which kind what Hard Eyes was in the first place.
00:09:38
So I like it.
00:09:40
I was a fan of that movie.
00:09:41
I thought it was a lot of fun.
00:09:43
I would be into seeing more.
00:09:45
Yeah, for sure.
00:09:46
I haven't seen it.
00:09:48
Yeah, well, maybe when the sequel comes out, I'll watch.
00:09:53
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:09:54
It's not surprising when you haven't seen a horror movie.
00:09:57
It's like the whole vibe.
00:09:59
Yeah, but I do want to see that one.
00:10:01
It came out around the same time as or it was like in the same vein or something.
00:10:05
It just is in the same bucket as uh companion for me.
00:10:10
I don't know why.
00:10:11
Okay, yeah, I Companion came out end of January and then Hard Eyes came out mid February, that checks out.
00:10:21
Okay, last one from me.
00:10:24
Studio 71 has sold the rights to the found footage horror anthology franchise VHS to Spooky Pictures and Image Nation Abu Dhabi.
00:10:35
We've reviewed two of VHS entries on the podcast and it seems like there's gonna be more entries soon because companies don't generally go around selling their properties or
00:10:44
buying properties without intentions of like milking them for all their worth.
00:10:48
So...
00:10:49
Yeah, that could be exciting.
00:10:50
More VHS entries in the future, which I think is like not really surprising.
00:10:53
But something I was surprised to learn by all this was that Spooky Pictures and Image Nation Abu Dhabi, this is their like eighth year of partnering.
00:11:02
um They're the production companies that are doing Hocum.
00:11:06
interesting.
00:11:07
Yeah, and for those of you who don't remember, that was in the Killer Q's top 5 most anticipated horror movies of 2026.
00:11:13
Yes, it's the new one from Damian McCarthy who did Oddity.
00:11:18
That's exciting.
00:11:22
I wonder what that means for where they'll be streaming.
00:11:28
Because right now I think they're exclusively on Shutter, right?
00:11:32
up.
00:11:32
They also did late night with the devil.
00:11:37
Okay, which is also I think on each other I think so Although I think it was on Hulu for a while So maybe they kind of just see who's got the best offer Nice Mm-hmm All right last
00:11:56
news for me everybody's already heard about it and honestly like the Oscars are happening very soon if you're listening to this, but we never talked about it so
00:12:05
I'm still going to talk about it.
00:12:07
Mm-hmm.
00:12:09
Sinners broke the record for most nominations ever.
00:12:14
Not just for a horror movie, for any movie.
00:12:19
So unbelievably exciting.
00:12:21
That's very, very cool.
00:12:24
It's up for best picture, director, actor, supporting actress, supporting actor, original screenplay, costume design, achievement in casting, which is a new category, makeup and
00:12:34
hair styling, original score, cinematography.
00:12:37
editing, production design, sound, visual effects, and original saw.
00:12:42
So like every category.
00:12:45
Yeah, absolutely insane.
00:12:47
Props to sinners.
00:12:49
Well deserved.
00:12:51
If you think it's overrated, argue with the wall.
00:12:53
I just don't care.
00:12:54
I genuinely don't care.
00:12:55
I love that movie.
00:12:57
It was my favorite movie of 2025.
00:13:00
And honestly, not even really that close.
00:13:05
yeah, I'm very excited for it.
00:13:07
I hope it comes, I mean, listen, if it's up to me, it sweeps.
00:13:11
I don't think that'll happen.
00:13:13
But I think having this.
00:13:18
Breaking this record is already like a feat in itself and it's well deserved, so I'm very excited for it.
00:13:25
A couple other genre films that also got NOMs.
00:13:28
Frankenstein got nine nominations, Weapons got nominated.
00:13:32
Not really horror, but Begonia, K-Pop Demon Hunters, Jurassic World Rebirth also got nominated.
00:13:39
What did Jurassic World Rebirth get nominated for?
00:13:42
A Razzie?
00:13:44
Oh.
00:13:47
You
00:13:49
And then also The Ugly Stepsister, which is a foreign film.
00:13:52
It is horror.
00:13:52
That also got a couple nominations, so...
00:13:54
Or one?
00:13:55
I can't remember.
00:13:56
I think it was costuming, but...
00:13:59
Yeah.
00:14:00
And then next week, we're gonna predict...
00:14:04
We're gonna make our predictions for all of the winners, so...
00:14:07
Not super horror-related, except for I'm saying sinners for everything.
00:14:12
No, I'm kidding.
00:14:14
But yeah, we're gonna make predictions, so that'll be fun.
00:14:16
Tune in next week if you wanna hear our takes.
00:14:20
Yeah.
00:14:20
get nominated for?
00:14:21
Supporting actress?
00:14:23
Yeah, Amy Madigan got a nom.
00:14:26
Weapons just got, yeah, just Amy Madigan and supporting role.
00:14:30
Nice.
00:14:31
She was very good in it.
00:14:33
Did you see her husband wants to be in the next in like prequel as the husband?
00:14:40
That would be so fun.
00:14:41
Ed Harris is her husband and someone caught him, asked him what role he would want to do next and he said he wanted to play Gladys' husband.
00:14:50
So I think that's funny.
00:14:52
Yeah, I do too.
00:14:54
He's too good looking.
00:14:55
Well, she's good looking too, but not in the movie, so I guess makeup is a thing.
00:14:59
Yeah, I think they could make him look perfect for the role.
00:15:03
Honestly, I don't want Gladys to have a husband,
00:15:07
Doesn't she?
00:15:08
Does she?
00:15:10
I don't remember.
00:15:11
I thought she did.
00:15:12
I thought that was like part of the plot.
00:15:14
where was he?
00:15:14
oh
00:15:15
Would it not be more fun for her to have a husband and kill him?
00:15:19
Mm.
00:15:20
I mean, I don't know.
00:15:22
She just doesn't seem...
00:15:24
Listen, the queer community has taken Gladys.
00:15:29
And so I just feel like she has a wife.
00:15:31
I don't know.
00:15:32
yeah, well, I don't think that she's like in love with whoever she's married to.
00:15:39
So I would rather her have a husband and kill him than her be a lesbian and have a wife.
00:15:46
And because that was one of our complaints with that movie, with the first movie, with weapons is that they killed the gays.
00:15:55
yeah, well, they, yeah, there were only four deaths, two of which were the gay couple.
00:15:59
I just felt like it was more brutal their deaths were than the other ones, which was my biggest issue.
00:16:05
I mean, also just like, I don't want to see gay people die, but like, yeah.
00:16:08
See, in my mind, which I guess, again, it's like killing the gays, but in my mind, was like she and her witch wife lived and they were so happy and they were just like vibing
00:16:18
together.
00:16:19
But then like something happens to her.
00:16:21
her wife and she passes away and that's why she's like evil now.
00:16:28
But then that also relies on killing a gay so do I really love that?
00:16:32
No.
00:16:34
She got separated from her witch wife.
00:16:37
She's on a a tear to get her back.
00:16:39
Yeah.
00:16:42
Either way.
00:16:42
I don't really need a weapons prequel, but...
00:16:46
You didn't like weapons as much as I did.
00:16:49
it.
00:16:49
I didn't like it as much as you did.
00:16:52
But I also think like not every movie needs a sequel or a prequel or whatever.
00:16:57
Yeah.
00:16:58
Anyways, should we talk about villains?
00:17:02
Okay.
00:17:02
uh
00:17:04
I'll give a little summary.
00:17:06
rate.
00:17:08
Villains is a 2019 black comedy horror film written and directed by Dan Burke and Robert Olson.
00:17:15
It's about a pair of amateur criminals who attempt to break into a house after their car breaks down, only to realize that they are in way over their heads when they discover that
00:17:23
the homeowners are harboring a dark secret.
00:17:26
It stars Bill Skarsgard, Michael Monroe, Jeffrey Donovan, and Kara Sedgwick.
00:17:31
Not a lot of financial figures for this one.
00:17:33
No posted budget, no real box office info.
00:17:35
It had a pretty limited release, but
00:17:37
It was at least well received.
00:17:39
It has a 6.3 out of 10 on IMDB, a 3.1 out of five on Letterboxd, and an 84 % critics and 77 % audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.
00:17:48
Nice.
00:17:49
Yeah.
00:17:50
Well, should we rate it?
00:17:52
No, uh there wasn't a lot of, yeah, this is a smaller movie.
00:17:58
So there wasn't a ton of information on it.
00:18:01
It is the director's third feature film, but I was reading in a new view where they were talking about how it felt like their first.
00:18:10
So that's kind of, yeah, which doesn't surprise me because their first.
00:18:15
film obviously had a shoestring budget.
00:18:17
I think it was like 50k that they had to work with.
00:18:20
So it was just like, in the movie world, that's nothing.
00:18:24
And so they really weren't able to do everything that they wanted to with that.
00:18:30
And then their second film was actually, they didn't write it, it was someone else, they were adapting something.
00:18:37
So it was like, or I think it was a sequel to something.
00:18:40
So it wasn't like their idea.
00:18:43
it
00:18:43
Mm-hmm.
00:18:44
were like, it was great, we loved it, but it wasn't really ours.
00:18:48
So they said this kind of felt like the first time that they were able to execute one of their ideas with the resources to actually do what they wanted to do.
00:18:58
Yeah.
00:19:00
And Dan Burke and Robert Olson have known each other since like basically childhood.
00:19:03
They were em college roommates.
00:19:07
And they commented in a couple interviews how like eerily similar they said that their origins in filmmaking were.
00:19:15
They both spent uh high school making like Lord of the Rings-esque comedic parodies with their friends.
00:19:22
And then when they were in film school together,
00:19:26
they were sort of like comparing all these films and they were like really surprised by how similar their early like they call them quote films not like actual films but how
00:19:35
early their films were or similar their early films were which is fun.
00:19:42
I love that.
00:19:43
Weren't they like randomly paired as roommates too?
00:19:46
Which is funny.
00:19:47
It worked out.
00:19:50
purpose.
00:19:51
Yeah, honestly.
00:19:53
Maybe, I know with some housing you have to put down, like you fill out a form and they try to match you with someone that they think you get along with.
00:20:06
Yeah, did you have a roommate in college?
00:20:08
God.
00:20:09
Wow, we asked the same question.
00:20:10
We're so in sync.
00:20:12
I did, yes.
00:20:13
I lived in the dorms for my first year of college.
00:20:15
em But I had one of the rooms that was like, we just shared a bathroom.
00:20:21
The two of us shared a bathroom, so we barely saw each other, didn't know her at all.
00:20:26
She was like out of my league.
00:20:29
Yeah.
00:20:30
for lack of a better expression.
00:20:31
What's fair?
00:20:33
I lived in, not in the dorms, but in an apartment that was still for students, if that makes sense.
00:20:43
But yeah, was me and my sister.
00:20:48
It was a four bedroom apartment.
00:20:50
So me and my sister were on one side and then there was like kitchen living room and then two other bedrooms on the other side.
00:20:55
And we got randomly paired with them.
00:20:59
It was fine.
00:21:00
I feel like it was like they were both very nice and we got on fine.
00:21:04
I don't know if like I would have ever been friends with them outside of that situation, but yeah, it went fine.
00:21:12
Yeah.
00:21:13
I remember, I do remember like getting my housing assignment and like going to find her on Facebook and like we friended each other or whatever and like started combos.
00:21:21
That was good.
00:21:22
And then we met each other in person and it was just like, we're not like super compatible.
00:21:27
Yeah.
00:21:28
Yeah.
00:21:29
I was also like three years younger than her because
00:21:32
shit.
00:21:34
Yeah.
00:21:35
I graduated.
00:21:37
It's true, just a little guy.
00:21:40
That, yeah, that could be hard.
00:21:42
At that age, I feel like three years is a lifetime.
00:21:48
Well, back to this movie.
00:21:51
I don't think that they had long at all to film this.
00:21:54
I couldn't find exact...
00:21:57
number of days that they filmed, but what I did see was that development began with the casting of Bill Skarsgård and Michael Monroe in the lead roles in March of 2018.
00:22:08
Two weeks later, Kira Sedgwick and Jeffrey Donovan joined the cast and principal photography began that same week.
00:22:16
And then on April 13th, Dot have been posted that they had wrapped.
00:22:21
So that's like two weeks.
00:22:23
Well, I guess it depends on when in March.
00:22:26
So at most it was a month.
00:22:30
Which is crazy.
00:22:31
Yeah.
00:22:32
Well, one of the things that Bill Skarsgard and Michael Monroe were talking about in a dual interview that they did was that they felt really lucky to have gotten like a week
00:22:40
and a half or 10 days prior to filming to rehearse, do read throughs and just try to like build chemistry because they said, and the directors also said in a separate interview
00:22:50
that that chemistry was really what the movie was based off of.
00:22:53
And if that didn't work, then the movie wasn't going to work.
00:22:56
So it was really important for them to have that time.
00:22:59
So like
00:23:00
funny how they had to film so quickly, but they were afforded that extra time to build chemistry and get to know each other a little bit.
00:23:08
Yeah, which I'm wondering if that...
00:23:10
I mean that had to be in the two weeks that they were...
00:23:14
Yeah, right?
00:23:15
Because I'm like, there's no possible way that then you add another almost two weeks to that.
00:23:22
Would have had like 10 days.
00:23:24
Yeah.
00:23:25
From what we can tell, the budget for this film was also not, super significant.
00:23:29
Um...
00:23:32
Yeah.
00:23:34
A film.
00:23:35
Yeah.
00:23:35
I'd be surprised if it was more than a million.
00:23:38
Hmm.
00:23:39
See, I think I would guess over a million.
00:23:43
Yeah, but like under five million.
00:23:45
That would be my guess.
00:23:48
Okay.
00:23:49
Yeah, I know in those, the week of rehearsals and stuff like that, they also talked about how they kind of created backstories for their characters to kind of fill in any gaps.
00:24:03
I think we get a little bit more of Jules's backstory than we do Mickey's, but still they kind of created that together.
00:24:11
then Bill and Micah worked together to create like what their relationship looked like too.
00:24:17
So.
00:24:18
how many years they've been together and how they met and all that kind of stuff and just kind of created a little world where their characters were a bit more realistic and I
00:24:29
think it portrayed.
00:24:30
Yeah, I feel like it that read.
00:24:32
Their chemistry was good.
00:24:34
Yeah, and I feel like what we do get to know about the character, I mean, without a lot of exposition, we still got to know their characters very well, just from how they interacted
00:24:46
and that like entrance scene and yeah, I feel like they did a good job.
00:24:52
Mm-hmm.
00:24:54
Yeah, especially since the script, like you kind of just get thrown into their world.
00:24:57
Like all of a sudden they're just, the movie starts with them robbing a bank or a gas station.
00:25:02
So it's like, you have to figure out who these people are very quickly.
00:25:06
And I think that they did that well.
00:25:09
Yeah, and that little like, even that two minute long scene of them robbing the gas station tells you, I mean, they're wearing those silly masks, they're quirky, they're in
00:25:18
love, they're like on hard times, they don't want to be doing it, like it just tells you so much without like holding your hand through it.
00:25:29
And we complain, or at least I complain a lot about like too much exposition, but I also complain about not enough exposition.
00:25:34
And this did so well with like the plot and like what little
00:25:37
dialogue we were given to just like tell the story really well.
00:25:40
So that's one of my favorite things about this film is that it just it told so much more than what was being shown on screen or said on screen.
00:25:48
Yeah, think that's my usual complaint about exposition is showing not or telling not showing.
00:25:57
Like, there's other ways to do it.
00:26:00
this, yeah, like you said, it's a perfect example of they showed us exactly who these people are within the first five minutes of this movie.
00:26:09
We can fill in all of the other blanks, you know, like it doesn't you don't need a 10 minute monologue about how they got there.
00:26:18
Yeah, we did not need the salesman spiel either to know all of those things.
00:26:23
We also could, like it was not very impressive to me, the salesman spiel, know, that scene.
00:26:28
Like that was not impressive to me.
00:26:31
I know that his goal was to be impressive because we all figured that out too.
00:26:36
Like that is just like something you should have been able to figure out by them, about them.
00:26:40
I don't know.
00:26:40
Yeah, but I also think that that was kind of the point of that scene because then Bill's character does it right back to him and he's like, right, like, I can make those
00:26:50
assumptions about you just as well.
00:26:52
So yeah, I think the director said that that was actually one of their favorite scenes to film.
00:27:00
Yeah.
00:27:01
What shows are, because they're both, Kira Sedgwick and Jeffrey Jonovan are both in like Emmy award winning shows.
00:27:08
What shows are they in?
00:27:09
Do you know?
00:27:10
I'll just top your head.
00:27:11
I know Jeffrey Donovan was in Burn Notice and Keira Sedgwick was in The Closer, I think.
00:27:21
I feel like she's in something else too.
00:27:23
she's been in a ton.
00:27:25
Like something bigger, like more like an NCIS or something along those lines.
00:27:31
The Closer was like a 10 year long show.
00:27:34
Yeah, that was a big show.
00:27:36
Let me see.
00:27:38
She was in nine nine.
00:27:40
She wasn't Brickl099.
00:27:42
I think it just, it wasn't like a main cast role.
00:27:44
It was recurring, I think.
00:27:46
Okay.
00:27:47
Yeah, so it must have been the closer.
00:27:49
Okay, well, either way, the director said that it was so cool having them because again, it's like they're pretty early in their careers and em having Jeffrey Donovan and Kira
00:27:59
Sedgwick, these like behemoths of TV want to be a part of their movie.
00:28:03
They learned so much from them and they were so gracious and yeah, that would be.
00:28:10
super good way to learn on the job is to have these like crazy actors on board.
00:28:16
Yeah, and they said, I think Bill was the first one cast and they said that they were really skeptical because they'd only seen him in Castle Rock and It, which are, he doesn't
00:28:28
play the most likable characters in those movies.
00:28:32
So for them, I guess, I love Pennywise.
00:28:38
But yeah, so they were very, very skeptical about him wanting to do this movie and
00:28:45
They said once they did a Zoom meeting with him, they knew.
00:28:49
They were like, yeah, of course, that's him.
00:28:51
He can do that.
00:28:52
No problem.
00:28:54
And they said that they got really lucky that after he said yes, everybody else was kind of in too, because Bill's doing it.
00:29:01
And he was very, like, that was right after it.
00:29:04
So obviously very hot name.
00:29:08
Yeah.
00:29:09
Do you me to tell you something that'll make you really uncomfortable?
00:29:14
I guess.
00:29:16
We don't have to.
00:29:17
I could just tell them you could go on mute.
00:29:19
You can go on mute.
00:29:21
No, now I mean I'm not going to get left out.
00:29:24
Come on.
00:29:25
uh
00:29:26
I asked you yesterday.
00:29:27
I knew this.
00:29:28
just wanted it from your your mouth.
00:29:30
eh Who your favorite who the best looking scars guard is?
00:29:36
Because while I was watching this movie, the hair scenes where he's just like looking straight up and he's got the mustache and stuff, I was like, that looks like my husband.
00:29:46
Dylan looks like Bill Scars guard.
00:29:50
I know you don't see it.
00:29:53
So I told Dylan, I was like, my God, you kind of look like Bill Skarsgard.
00:29:57
And he's like, that's not even the best looking Skarsgard.
00:29:59
And I was like, he absolutely is and I can prove it to you.
00:30:02
And so then I messaged you that.
00:30:03
was like, who's the best looking Skarsgard?
00:30:05
Yeah, he absolutely is the best looking Scarredsguard.
00:30:08
No, Dylan's a very handsome man.
00:30:11
I don't really see the similarities, but sure.
00:30:16
Yeah, it's the nose and the eyes for me.
00:30:19
okay.
00:30:21
and the eyebrows.
00:30:23
Got it, yeah.
00:30:25
This area, that top little.
00:30:27
Yeah, yeah, like that one Instagram filter or the Snapchat filter where you just do your eyes over the paintings wouldn't be able to tell between those cards are doing.
00:30:37
Not at all.
00:30:39
In fact, I'm to write that down so I do that later.
00:30:44
hahahaha
00:30:46
Ah, shoot.
00:30:48
there was kind of in addition to the directors talking about the Zoom meeting where they met him.
00:30:55
They said, yeah, that's it.
00:30:56
They're like, he's long and lanky, but he's handsome as the day is long.
00:31:00
they said he's, what did they say?
00:31:02
He's got this like hot Steve Buscemi thing going on.
00:31:09
like, yeah, of course.
00:31:11
But they really appreciated that he obviously, like, takes acting and the craft of it very seriously, but is always down to joke around.
00:31:19
So it was like, just kind of that perfect balance, which...
00:31:23
Yeah, I think you can see.
00:31:24
Even, like, look up behind the scenes on the It movies and you can tell he's just a very down-to-earth guy.
00:31:32
Yeah, so down to earth, yeah.
00:31:33
And he's really good with the kids and...
00:31:36
I'll be ready to beat the shit out of me.
00:31:38
He just starts high fiving them.
00:31:40
that's my favorite clip.
00:31:42
there was an interview, the same interview that I've been referring to with Mechamunro and Bill Skarsgard, where the interviewer asked something along the lines of like, would you
00:31:52
rather be up against the clown that capitalizes on your fears or the like STD monster that follows you around forever?
00:32:01
And you got to just keep going.
00:32:03
uh And Bill is like, well, I have a pretty good in with Pennywise, so I'm going to go with that.
00:32:12
Yeah, for context too, it's because they're both in movies with it prominently in the title, so it and then it follows.
00:32:21
Yeah.
00:32:23
Yeah, I think until I made you watch it.
00:32:26
which is like such a reasonable, that's so reasonable.
00:32:29
Mm, yeah.
00:32:31
Yeah, which it would you prefer?
00:32:33
Which it would you prefer?
00:32:35
I think I would also take Pennywise because that's right, it follows this forever.
00:32:44
Like you always have to worry about it coming back for you.
00:32:47
eh And I just don't think, I'm already an anxious person so that's just not gonna work for me.
00:32:56
Yeah.
00:32:59
Have you ever tried Lexapro?
00:33:01
Ha
00:33:03
I'm having a great time on Lexapro.
00:33:05
You should try it.
00:33:06
You should try.
00:33:07
Yeah, I don't remember.
00:33:10
I have a list somewhere of all the ones I've been on, but...
00:33:14
Yeah, somehow LexPro was one I hadn't tried.
00:33:16
It's great.
00:33:17
Highly recommend.
00:33:18
Hashtag not sponsored.
00:33:21
Jesus, can you imagine?
00:33:22
First sponsor, Lexapro.
00:33:25
Somebody at Lexapro or so yeah, somebody out like whatever medicine distribution company that Lexapro is under has been listening to our episodes and is like, fuck this girl.
00:33:34
These people need us.
00:33:37
Speaking of drugs, the directors kind of talked a little bit about the scene where they do the cocaine because they were like, yeah, it's not like a very non-judgmental, like
00:33:52
they're just taking coke to save their lives.
00:33:54
And they said that the whole concept of the movie kind of was playing on that relative morality and how, yeah, obviously, if your 13-year-old is getting offered
00:34:07
drugs, like the person offering them drugs is the worst person in the world, but in this context, like they needed it to stay alive.
00:34:14
So like, I don't know, they were just kind of like playing with that.
00:34:17
Obviously they were not advocating you doing cocaine, but they wanted to really play with that.
00:34:22
Like what makes someone a bad person?
00:34:25
Swapping those perceptions of, you it opens with these people robbing a bank and then they break into this nice couple's home, but then it kind of flips that on its head and...
00:34:35
the couples may be a little bit more fucked up.
00:34:37
Not even.
00:34:38
They're definitely more fucked up.
00:34:40
Yeah.
00:34:42
But I liked that.
00:34:46
Jules and...
00:34:48
Nikki?
00:34:49
Mickey felt very normal to me.
00:34:53
Like they felt very lovable and yeah, they were like, I mean, I guess they were villains.
00:34:59
And I know this was the point, but they were just very lovable and totally average even before you bring in the Kira Sedgwick of it all.
00:35:08
They were just very normal.
00:35:11
I don't know.
00:35:11
they're definitely set up to be these kind of anti-heroes of, yeah, they're robbing a gas station, but you still really love them.
00:35:19
Yeah.
00:35:20
Did you cry at the end of this?
00:35:23
Yeah, obviously.
00:35:26
me too.
00:35:27
Not because of Bill.
00:35:29
Because of the Florida thing.
00:35:31
Oh, okay.
00:35:32
I kind of like tear up.
00:35:34
I didn't like cry cry, but I teared up when she's like holding him and she's like, it's okay, like, I love you.
00:35:41
love you.
00:35:42
And he's just, they just wanted to go sell seashells by the seashore.
00:35:48
But then she gets to with her new little adopted sister slash daughter.
00:35:52
I know, but he deserved to be there with her.
00:35:56
Yeah.
00:35:58
Rip Mickey.
00:35:59
I was giggling, was kicking my feet, and then at the end I was like, what the fuck?
00:36:04
She had some tears.
00:36:07
I know.
00:36:08
It's got heart.
00:36:10
Yeah, it really does.
00:36:11
And lovable characters.
00:36:15
Yeah.
00:36:17
This is like natural born killers, but like for Loverboys, you know?
00:36:22
Oh, have you seen natural born killers?
00:36:26
Okay.
00:36:27
Now you're going to watch it and be like, what the fuck?
00:36:29
Hahaha
00:36:31
Speaking of natural born killers, the directors were very aware.
00:36:37
that there's similarities to not only that movie, but a lot of different movies in this.
00:36:45
They basically said like, they wanted there to be enough references that showed people that they knew that they weren't the first people to have this idea, but not enough where
00:36:55
it just became an homage to all of those movies.
00:36:58
So they were trying to kind of toe that line of being like, yeah, we know we're not the first people who have ever done this type of thing, but here's our take on that.
00:37:08
So yeah, I feel like there's a lot of, I mean, there's a lot of movies about like runaway,
00:37:14
couples and stuff like that.
00:37:16
Like true romance, natural born killers, badlands.
00:37:19
Like, obviously you see that in this movie.
00:37:22
I think there's also, I don't know, I kind of immediately thought of Barbarian when they were about to break into the house because she pulls out the crowbar to like smash in the
00:37:32
window and Bill Skarsgard's character says Jules were not barbarians.
00:37:38
immediately I was like, that's so funny because this was about three years before.
00:37:42
he ended up doing the film Barbarian.
00:37:46
Yeah, but then also obviously the whole concept of this kind of twist in the basement also reminiscent of Barbarians.
00:37:54
There's also another movie, The People Under the Stairs, which a lot of people saw similarities to.
00:38:02
So, which is fun.
00:38:03
The directors were like, we'd actually never seen that movie.
00:38:05
And then we watched it and we were like, yeah, this is why people keep saying that our movie reminds them of it.
00:38:12
But that's on our list.
00:38:14
We'll watch that one eventually.
00:38:18
Once it's long enough that you've forgotten that I said people thought it was similar to this.
00:38:22
Yeah, tomorrow.
00:38:25
Next, tune in next week.
00:38:29
thought that the one scene was a little saw reference too.
00:38:36
bike and being chained in a basement, a barren room, a little tricycle, a red tricycle.
00:38:43
She's riding around on red tricycle and there's somebody chained in a little room.
00:38:48
Yeah, I guess.
00:38:50
No, that's what Sai is.
00:38:53
There is no I guess.
00:38:55
But I think it's not, Saw's also not the first time someone was chained in a room.
00:39:01
I know, but there's also a tricycle.
00:39:03
It's the tricycle and someone being chained in a-
00:39:05
right.
00:39:06
Mixed with.
00:39:08
Sure.
00:39:09
what saw.
00:39:10
Yeah.
00:39:11
Yeah.
00:39:12
Yeah, I'm picking up what you're putting down.
00:39:14
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:39:16
We haven't really talked much about the inspiration for this film.
00:39:20
We talked a little bit about how the directors got together, but two things that they sort of started from.
00:39:25
One, the characters of Mickey and Jules, they knew that they wanted the two lovers on the run.
00:39:30
em And then the question was, what should we pit them against?
00:39:35
So that was like inspiration one.
00:39:37
uh And then inspiration two is they also knew that they wanted the
00:39:43
film to be in a single or really limited location because they had sort of practiced with that with Body, which as you mentioned was a shoestring budget of 50k.
00:39:53
They shot that one in 11 nights.
00:39:56
So they didn't want to move too far from that experience.
00:40:02
So em with the idea of Mickey and Jules and with the idea of single location was born this like weird uh
00:40:12
sort of like future otherworldly version of Jules and Mickey that they experience in the house.
00:40:21
Yeah, I know some of the ideas that they had of when they were first trying to figure out what they were gonna pit them against, they were like, it could be, you know, an obsessive
00:40:30
FBI agent or a jealous ex or zombies.
00:40:33
So they were really kind of going across the board of what they might have to go up against.
00:40:40
And they ended on a bizarro world version of themselves is what they said, so.
00:40:45
Yeah, cute.
00:40:47
Very.
00:40:48
My favorite fun fact about this one was the hair scenes.
00:40:54
Super cute.
00:40:55
Yeah, a little car wash.
00:40:56
Those were obviously shot straight down the lens of the camera and Micah was still off camera doing her lines to Bill so that it could still feel like she was actually there
00:41:11
with him and that he was actually looking into her eyes.
00:41:14
I thought that was cute.
00:41:16
Yeah, I like that.
00:41:18
I'm assuming he was there for hers too.
00:41:21
Cause they both do the little closeups.
00:41:23
Mm-hmm.
00:41:26
Yeah, that was also those were all filmed on the last day of shooting inside of a studio.
00:41:32
Mm-hmm.
00:41:34
Fun, so fun.
00:41:35
That was a really cute scene.
00:41:37
Added to their quirkiness for sure.
00:41:40
Yeah, definitely.
00:41:42
One thing that I thought was interesting is, we've talked a little bit that this is kind of a single location film.
00:41:49
It's all kind of taking place inside this house and they didn't want it to get stale.
00:41:56
they, you know, they were like, we kind of have a budget to do a little bit better than just having every room be this like white walled house where it just feels very repetitive
00:42:05
and not really like they're moving around at all.
00:42:08
So that's why in this movie,
00:42:10
they tried to make each room very, very distinct in its styling.
00:42:16
So the basement obviously has this very cold thing.
00:42:19
The living room has this palm tree wallpaper.
00:42:23
The gym's kind of all quirky.
00:42:25
Every room they wanted to style very differently and kind of have different key colors in those rooms so that it didn't feel just repetitive and...
00:42:34
like giving your eyes something visually to kind of latch on to.
00:42:37
They're like, obviously no one would decorate their house like this, but like we wanted it to at least be visually interesting when it's all taking place in the same place.
00:42:47
Yeah, but I don't know.
00:42:48
I think it was kind of fun the way that it was decorated and it was like super quirky and like, like the nuke town houses.
00:42:59
You don't know what I'm talking about.
00:43:01
That's from Call of Duty.
00:43:03
great.
00:43:04
Yeah, I love I love a Call of Duty reference.
00:43:07
Let me tell you what.
00:43:08
Yeah, Call of Duty Black Ops 2.
00:43:10
You had to be there.
00:43:11
Did you know, did you know I was nationally ranked in one in the chamber on Black Ops 2?
00:43:18
That's a fun fact about me.
00:43:19
nationally ranked.
00:43:21
Oh my god.
00:43:25
Please.
00:43:28
Like highly, not like low.
00:43:30
I was really good at one of the chamber on black ops two.
00:43:33
rate yeah?
00:43:34
Like I was nationally ranked at 3.
00:43:38
Hahaha!
00:43:40
Well, any other fun facts before we rate it?
00:43:44
Just one, which I thought was cute.
00:43:48
In one interview, they were asked if they had to perform a robbery, what their mask would be.
00:43:54
And they asked this to Michael Monroe and Bill Skarsgard.
00:43:58
Michael Monroe said that she would want an eagle mask.
00:44:01
She thinks that'd be cool.
00:44:03
And Bill Skarsgard said that he just wanted her unicorn mask that she got to wear in the movie.
00:44:09
Yeah, I've seen those out and about those masks.
00:44:13
Next time I see one, I'll send it to you.
00:44:16
Great, thank you.
00:44:19
Oh yeah, I mean, come on.
00:44:23
Anybody who knows us knows that that's true.
00:44:25
Yeah, very on brand for both of us.
00:44:29
Alright, let's do it.
00:44:33
How scary did you think it was?
00:44:36
I give it a .5 because it's not trying to be scary.
00:44:40
It's...
00:44:42
Just a fun little time.
00:44:44
Definitely more comedy than horror.
00:44:47
What about you?
00:44:49
I also gave it a .5 because there just wasn't anything scary about it and they weren't trying to be scary with it, so.
00:44:55
Nice.
00:44:56
Yeah.
00:44:58
How sexy did you think it was?
00:45:01
I gave it a 2.5.
00:45:04
The cast is fun, the little nods to like slasher flicks and horror and the Bonnie and Clyde of it all, which fun fact, my husband is related to Bonnie and Clyde.
00:45:18
One or the other, I don't remember who, I think Bonnie.
00:45:21
Well, they had, do they have kids?
00:45:23
No, because they were too young.
00:45:24
They died early.
00:45:25
Yeah, I don't think they had children.
00:45:27
Yeah, so one of the two of them he's related to.
00:45:30
How about you?
00:45:33
I'll give it a 3 out of 5.
00:45:34
So similar.
00:45:36
Yeah.
00:45:37
I think, yeah, mean, listen, there's always gonna be like a full point for Bill.
00:45:41
He's my favorite Scars card.
00:45:44
And yeah, their relationship was very cute.
00:45:47
Who doesn't love a nice, uh robbing couple?
00:45:50
That's hot.
00:45:52
Yeah, once they enter the house, like things get a little weird and that's where, you know, it couldn't be anything more than a three button.
00:46:00
The other couple, and no offense to Kira and Jeffrey, very attractive couple.
00:46:06
But their vibe, not sexy.
00:46:09
No.
00:46:10
Nothing going on in that house was sexy.
00:46:15
Yeah.
00:46:17
Well, how fucked up did you think it was?
00:46:19
I gave it a one, kind of like a mix of two things, which is obviously like them kidnapping this poor girl in the basement.
00:46:30
That's, you know, that's a little fucked up.
00:46:32
But also nothing we haven't really seen before.
00:46:35
And then also the majority of that point is for the like, well, I mean, Bill's character does get sexually assaulted and...
00:46:44
I'm glad that they'd stopped it before anything more would happen because that would have been really uncomfortable, but yeah, that was uh that was uncomfy.
00:46:54
Yeah.
00:46:56
Bad vibes.
00:46:56
What about you?
00:46:57
I gave it a 1.5 for the same reasons, but also for the tongue scene.
00:47:05
Oh, like when they rip out her tongue ring.
00:47:08
Yeah.
00:47:09
fun and I was giggling, but also I did not and I didn't love it.
00:47:14
Yeah,
00:47:16
Yeah.
00:47:17
I wish I had seen this in theaters.
00:47:18
Ew.
00:47:22
I did for listeners, I just mimicked pulling out a tongue ring.
00:47:26
Um, yeah, I wished I had seen this one in like a full theater because I bet that that scene would have been fun to just be around other people during.
00:47:36
Yeah.
00:47:37
m
00:47:39
All right, overall, what did you think?
00:47:42
I, my only complaint about this movie is that there were some scenes where like when they pan over to the laundry shoot and it had like a little glint on it or when they were like
00:47:54
telling a story and like Bill Skarsgard's characters in a spotlight, just those little like silly, goofy like tricks of the camera.
00:48:02
I wish they had really leaned into that more.
00:48:06
The times they did it felt like just like a little bit out of place.
00:48:10
Mm.
00:48:10
didn't lean into it as much.
00:48:12
But loved all the characters, loved the comedy of it all, loved the chemistry between Micah and Bill.
00:48:18
uh Keira Cedric being absolutely unhinged was so fun.
00:48:22
The goofy score just sort of put a little bow on the tone.
00:48:27
A lot of times the tone could simply be fixed by the score.
00:48:32
The score really makes or breaks the tone.
00:48:33
And in this one, they just like, this score was so perfect.
00:48:36
but I wish they had really leaned into those little like goofy, campy camera tricks.
00:48:41
um It would have been perfect.
00:48:43
I gave it a 4.5.
00:48:46
Wow
00:48:47
I really liked it.
00:48:49
It was so fun.
00:48:51
Yay, I'm glad you liked it.
00:48:53
This is definitely one of those movies that I recommend because it's very underrated.
00:48:57
I don't think a lot of people saw this.
00:48:59
And I'm like, it has everything.
00:49:01
What do you mean?
00:49:01
Of course you're gonna like it.
00:49:04
I did give it a four out of five.
00:49:06
And the only reason it's not higher for me is because I do think some of the ideas that I've seen in other movies, it was maybe done a little bit better in those other movies.
00:49:19
However,
00:49:21
I do think this is a great take on those types of tropes, so I'm not mad about it.
00:49:27
It's still a very cool take on those things, and I'm so happy that they did it because I think this movie's very funny and it's very cute, and yeah, I love it.
00:49:39
But yeah, that's the only reason why it's not higher than a four is because sometimes I'm like, oh, well now I wanna watch that movie because it reminds me of the other ones, but.
00:49:49
But yeah, I'm glad you liked it.
00:49:50
I feel like this one's an underrated gem.
00:49:54
For sure, for sure.
00:49:55
And you can like being mostly single location, like you can recommend it as that.
00:50:01
em I was thinking about like whenever anybody asks, like what should I watch?
00:50:07
Like I'll add this to my rotation.
00:50:09
Like I recommend this one.
00:50:10
I recommend one cut of the day.
00:50:11
I recommend like just because they all have something like unique and fun.
00:50:15
What's the one that's one take?
00:50:17
The French movie.
00:50:18
We just watched it in the last month or two.
00:50:22
Mads.
00:50:25
Yeah.
00:50:25
one too because they all have some just like fun little something about them, you
00:50:30
Yeah.
00:50:32
Hard agree.
00:50:34
Yay!
00:50:35
Yeah.
00:50:37
All right, would you survive?
00:50:39
So putting myself in the film, starts out as I'm already robbing the convenience store.
00:50:47
that's done.
00:50:47
You don't get to say you didn't.
00:50:50
Unless you're Kira Sedgwick's character.
00:50:52
Right, yeah, no.
00:50:53
So that part I don't think I can get out of, but what I'm not doing is breaking into somebody's house after that.
00:50:59
So I think I'm ditching the car and doing my best to get gas at like a station.
00:51:06
Maybe not the one that I just robbed, but like a station.
00:51:09
And then like worst case, which for me is like not terrible, going to jail.
00:51:14
Yeah, okay.
00:51:17
Great.
00:51:17
Yeah, what about you?
00:51:20
Kind of agree.
00:51:21
I don't know if I would break into the house especially because which obviously I think it's just Not the vibe of the movie like it's kind of just they're playing everything for
00:51:31
laughs But like they didn't even really investigate that much to see if people were home So I don't know if I would break in If I did break in though, too, I think when George
00:51:43
gave me the out I would take it when he was like
00:51:48
just leave here and nobody has to know anything, I'd be like, perfect, babe, we're leaving.
00:51:54
And then I would anonymously call 911 to report the child in the basement.
00:51:57
Like, I think that is the way I can personally help because I don't feel I'm equipped to take on.
00:52:05
someone who keeps people in their baseline.
00:52:08
I think I would feel a little out of my depth there.
00:52:11
yeah, and it's funny that you bring up that they didn't do a very good job deciding if somebody was home.
00:52:19
The car was in the garage, like.
00:52:22
That would tell me, like I would assume that they're home based on that alone and it didn't even feel like they went through that same thought process.
00:52:31
No, they're like, we're going to siphon the gas from the car.
00:52:33
And I'm like, well, do you not think maybe that means someone might be there?
00:52:40
But I also think they were in the mindset of, you know, we're bank robbers.
00:52:43
We can take on anybody.
00:52:44
You know, we'll just use our little gun.
00:52:47
And they didn't know that they were up against someone who's maybe more unhinged.
00:52:53
Yeah.
00:52:55
But yeah.
00:52:57
All right, cool.
00:52:58
Well, I'm glad you liked it.
00:53:00
Next week, we're doing our new movie, although it's been out for a little bit, but we gave you time to see it.
00:53:07
We're doing Send Help.
00:53:09
We both seen the trailer.
00:53:10
I think we know the general concept of what it is.
00:53:14
We said we could try to predict the ending.
00:53:18
I'm not going to, and here's why.
00:53:22
So I saw someone doing
00:53:25
like a spoiler-free review of it, and I watched it and they didn't spoil it, but they said that the ending reminded them of another movie, and they didn't say which movie, however,
00:53:41
I'm drawing conclusions, like I immediately thought of something, and so I think I know how it ends.
00:53:48
That's a lot of assumptions on my end, but I'm scared to...
00:53:51
say what I think it is in case it is true and then I ruin it for you.
00:53:55
You know what I mean?
00:53:56
So I'm like, I don't want to do that.
00:53:59
So I'm gonna let you predict how you think it ends.
00:54:01
Okay.
00:54:03
What I want it to be is she kills him and just lives on the island and has a yeah, she just she doesn't need a corporate job.
00:54:16
She has everything she needs.
00:54:19
She is a loner already.
00:54:23
So it's not like she needs human companionship much.
00:54:28
Perhaps.
00:54:31
Perhaps she kills him and then is rescued from the island and then decides like, know, fuck the corporate world, catches out all of her savings, goes to an island where there is
00:54:43
maybe some human interaction just to like give her that little piece of the life's necessities, human necessities.
00:54:50
That's what I want to happen.
00:54:52
I want it to be good for her.
00:54:54
Fuck you, corporate.
00:54:57
Dylan O'Brien.
00:54:59
Yeah, and I know Dylan O'Brien eats a bug, which I'm really excited to
00:55:03
Mmm.
00:55:04
Great, yeah.
00:55:05
Their press tour has been very cute.
00:55:07
Yeah, they're fun together.
00:55:10
Yeah.
00:55:10
Yeah.
00:55:11
little friendship.
00:55:13
I like it.
00:55:15
All right, cool.
00:55:15
Well, I'm excited to see it.
00:55:16
It's gotten good reviews, so that's promising.
00:55:19
Cinema Jo really liked it.
00:55:21
Yeah, I've seen lots of praise for it.
00:55:25
People are saying Trashuary's over.
00:55:27
There's been too many good movies.
00:55:29
Because last year Companion came out in January.
00:55:33
This year, this.
00:55:33
We liked ah We Bury the Dead.
00:55:37
That was a decent one.
00:55:38
Yeah, didn't that count in December, technically?
00:55:41
Came out in January.
00:55:43
Okay.
00:55:44
Alright cool, well I'm excited for that.
00:55:46
