a big one. 00:02:24.479 --> 00:02:27.280 There's a really big one that is not mentioned. 00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:28.159 Why? 00:02:28.479 --> 00:02:43.360 And uh there was an interview with uh Kevin Smith in which he said the thing he thinks dates this movie the most is that the absence of talking about uh the abuse of children in the church. 00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:43.840 Yes. 00:02:44.479 --> 00:02:47.520 And he says the movie came out in 1999. 00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:53.120 Yes, but he wrote the script in 1991 and the sex scandals broke afterwards. 00:02:53.280 --> 00:02:54.639 I love this about Kevin Smith. 00:02:54.800 --> 00:03:04.560 He made George Lucas into a verb, and so he said, if I were to George Lucas it, I would go back and add just that into the film. 00:03:04.800 --> 00:03:06.000 That's the only thing I would change. 00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:16.879 I would add that because it's glaring that it's not there when you list off the offenses the church had uh committed in the past against humanity. 00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:30.479 Side side note and point of order in that one is uh what what I find funnier uh about everything is George Lucas was a huge proponent against using Technicolor to digitally enhance films. 00:03:30.719 --> 00:03:45.840 He was like adamant, vehement, just you know, outspoken, you know, you can't do that, and then he starts having his own films and is all like, Well, I'm gonna start putting in a digital job of the hut to this one that was never there before, because it's like, well, okay, bro. 00:03:46.240 --> 00:03:50.240 So I understand why Kevin Smith used George Lucas as a verb. 00:03:50.479 --> 00:03:59.280 Now, dogma uh is a principle, belief, or system of ideas that is accepted as unquestionably true without the need for proof. 00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:18.560 But I also feel that it uh it can apply to when you're saying somebody's dogmatic, it's really just it's so rigid that it does remind me of Star Wars because the followers, the passionate uh folk of Star Wars are this is the way it's supposed to be, and there is no other way it should be. 00:04:18.639 --> 00:04:19.600 It is canon, right? 00:04:20.319 --> 00:04:21.360 Don't mess with the Star Wars. 00:04:22.720 --> 00:04:26.959 Well, and I think Star Wars fans, I've never seen Star Wars, okay? 00:04:27.600 --> 00:04:28.000 Never. 00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:30.000 Oh my god, we might have a whole bunch of things. 00:04:30.079 --> 00:04:31.279 They do exist right here. 00:04:32.399 --> 00:04:50.560 Michael's like, we're having some interference by No, I will never I think I think there's a similarity with like the the Bible and all those like sub-stories and all the people you have to remember, like the apostles and all that. 00:04:50.639 --> 00:04:52.079 Isn't that a little Star Wars y? 00:04:52.399 --> 00:04:58.000 Like you gotta remember that like in this structure he's this way, and those people fight these people. 00:04:58.079 --> 00:04:58.399 I don't know. 00:04:58.720 --> 00:05:06.000 And all the different types of X-Wings and all the different types in the force, yes, there's actually a Jedi religion, I believe, acknowledged in the UK. 00:05:06.240 --> 00:05:11.759 Mary, quick question for you have you seen uh or read any of the Lord of the Rings? 00:05:11.920 --> 00:05:14.720 Come on, no, no, no, it's official, you're not a nerd. 00:05:14.879 --> 00:05:19.439 I think Harry Potter bridged the like, okay, the Lord of the Rings is not dorky anymore. 00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:19.920 I'm sorry. 00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:20.720 I'm just gonna say it. 00:05:20.800 --> 00:05:24.480 I don't know what happened, but it brought the sides together, and now it's okay. 00:05:24.720 --> 00:05:24.959 Yes. 00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:28.000 So so it like here's the reason for for for me saying that. 00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:38.240 So like Star Wars, I've I've obviously watched all the films, and I do think, Mary, we have a whole podcast here now, um, where we're just gonna get you on nine different podcasts. 00:05:38.480 --> 00:05:43.519 I've seen space balls, so I can I can participate in the vernacular. 00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:46.000 Like I get it, but I get it. 00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:50.959 I think it's funny because science fiction, fantasy, that kind of thing, it was uh subculture, right? 00:05:51.600 --> 00:05:53.439 And it has become pop culture. 00:05:53.680 --> 00:06:02.560 Yes, it has you know, um, and and hey, you know, maybe being relaxed and groovy like Jesus is a sub culture and it'll become pop culture eventually. 00:06:02.639 --> 00:06:03.120 I don't know. 00:06:03.439 --> 00:06:05.439 But you want to say something, yeah. 00:06:05.680 --> 00:06:20.079 Yeah, no, but specifically when it comes to the Lord of the Rings, I I there was a time in my life where I read The Hobbit pretty much every year that like I would read The Hobbit actively like that, because that's a self-contained single book and very good. 00:06:20.319 --> 00:06:26.560 Uh whereas The Lord of the Rings, I read it I think probably once, maybe twice in my entire lifetime. 00:06:26.720 --> 00:06:43.199 But the thing is, is it reads like the Bible to me in the sense that there are points where it's like, oh, Aragorn, son of Blairathorn, daughter to Claraflor, and ninth of Florin, and you're like who began, and you're like, why is this relevance stop? 00:06:44.079 --> 00:06:48.480 Like that that to me is you know where I was trying to eventually drive the points. 00:06:48.720 --> 00:06:52.560 And I I think I think Harry Potter, and I also think Game of Thrones. 00:06:52.879 --> 00:06:53.120 Yes. 00:06:53.279 --> 00:07:01.680 I think I'm sorry, I'm like Segwang, but I think Game of Thrones also brought that subculture up to mainstream, you know, and that's similar. 00:07:01.839 --> 00:07:06.160 Like these people, the Dothraki, the Virgo, I don't even know, but right? 00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:08.800 And it's nice that these things have brought us all

together. 00:07:09.040 --> 00:07:09.360 Yes. 00:07:09.519 --> 00:07:14.079 I'm still stuck on who who did Aragorn chloroform? 00:07:14.319 --> 00:07:14.879 Yes. 00:07:15.199 --> 00:07:16.959 Does this smell like chloroform? 00:07:17.920 --> 00:07:21.600 See, and that then that leads me to um designing women. 00:07:21.920 --> 00:07:24.480 Because we had bearwith. 00:07:25.920 --> 00:07:34.879 Whoa! My sister and I had a plague in high school where we were so weak we couldn't even leave the couch and and we could not change the channel. 00:07:35.040 --> 00:07:42.879 We were so ill that we couldn't reach for the remote and change the station while the television was on, and that is something for a teenager. 00:07:43.120 --> 00:07:58.480 So we sat through a designing marathon, a designing women marathon, and by the end of the day, I knew the difference between Carlene, Charlene, and Darling, which is something I would not have known prior to. 00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:10.319 I love the beginning where uh um Loki, Matt Damon's character, talks this poor nun out of religion by using Alice in Wonderland, the walrus and the carpenter. 00:08:10.480 --> 00:08:10.800 Yes. 00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:15.199 And the walrus and the carpenter being the eastern and western religions. 00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:15.519 Yes. 00:08:15.680 --> 00:08:18.079 And by the end of it, you're like, oh my God. 00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:22.800 Um, but that to me is a very personal view on how you see religion. 00:08:23.040 --> 00:08:29.360 Um, and then Christ himself, it's Rufus' quote, he really hates the shit carried out in his name. 00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:31.920 Wars, bigotry, televangelism. 00:08:32.080 --> 00:08:32.320 Yep. 00:08:32.559 --> 00:08:39.679 And to me, like, yeah, all the big problems we have with uh attaching the name of Christ, something hateful. 00:08:39.840 --> 00:08:40.080 Yeah. 00:08:40.559 --> 00:08:53.120 Um and then uh and then women, because serendipity has this whole thing where she talks about how women, uh her quote was women are painted as bigger antagonists than the Egyptians and the Romans combined. 00:08:53.360 --> 00:08:53.600 Yes. 00:08:55.039 --> 00:08:57.519 Who talked Adam into eating the apple? 00:08:57.679 --> 00:09:03.360 Who it was a woman that uh uh called for the head of John the Baptist. 00:09:03.519 --> 00:09:05.679 It was a woman that cut off Samson's hair. 00:09:05.919 --> 00:09:06.159 Right. 00:09:06.320 --> 00:09:17.440 And um, yeah, women are villain villainized uh quite a bit in the Bible, and all the women, and this is my conspiracy theory for a woman who hasn't read the Bible from cover to cover. 00:09:17.679 --> 00:09:19.759 Um and hey, that is a Catholic thing. 00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:21.039 We don't we're told not to. 00:09:21.360 --> 00:09:23.759 I mean, recently we could misinterpret it. 00:09:23.919 --> 00:09:24.320 Yes. 00:09:24.559 --> 00:09:26.720 Traditionally we're told not to read, we misinterpret it. 00:09:26.960 --> 00:09:27.759 Don't read it, don't read it. 00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:28.720 But women can read it. 00:09:29.039 --> 00:09:35.600 Spoilers, it was interesting how all these all these men have these unique names, like um Jebediah. 00:09:35.759 --> 00:09:38.879 So it's really rare that we have uh duplicates on names. 00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:44.000 Yes, but Mary, oh my god, everyone, everyone is named Mary. 00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:46.000 How do we keep all the Mary's straight? 00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:47.519 There are too many Marys. 00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:49.919 They like couldn't name anyone. 00:09:50.320 --> 00:09:51.679 Oh, Ruth, thank goodness. 00:09:51.840 --> 00:09:52.240 And Anne. 00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:53.039 But that's it. 00:09:53.360 --> 00:09:58.159 And you know, Martha, that lazy bitch, or am I the lazy bitch in that smoothie?

00:10:13.120 --> 00:10:13.200 Oh. 00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:16.320 You you say it and then you leave our listeners. 00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:17.759 They should have watched the movie. 00:10:17.919 --> 00:10:18.720 They should have watched the movie. 00:10:19.120 --> 00:10:20.639 But here's what I thought was really interesting. 00:10:20.720 --> 00:10:28.000 If you look at the movie as a whole, you have women and their voice being used to be villainous in the Bible. 00:10:28.159 --> 00:10:32.559 They talk about black Jesus and people's uncomfortable reaction to that. 00:10:32.720 --> 00:10:37.039 And they they talk about she's she works at an abortion clinic. 00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:41.360 Uh her co-worker and friend is a Jewish lesbian. 00:10:41.519 --> 00:10:46.960 And then the 13th Apossible, she's that's the one person with her that she actually takes counsel from. 00:10:47.120 --> 00:10:48.799 Like she really listens to him. 00:10:49.039 --> 00:10:56.000 The only thing I would add, the idea of they address like killing in the name of the of the Lord, like whether that's right or wrong. 00:10:56.320 --> 00:10:59.440 Because that's that's Loki's inner turmoil, right? 00:10:59.600 --> 00:10:59.759 Yes. 00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:01.679 Yeah, like you know, to that kind of thing. 00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:04.399 No, my notes are not like Trish's notes. 00:11:04.559 --> 00:11:07.200 My notes are like Ken doll junk. 00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:08.080 Oh, yes. 00:11:08.240 --> 00:11:10.159 Yes, that's a great reference. 00:11:10.480 --> 00:11:11.200 That's not appropriate. 00:11:11.360 --> 00:11:12.399 That's not appropriate. 00:11:12.639 --> 00:11:19.120 I have irrational fear of gangs of marauding youth as an old lady, which I have an irrational
