Hello, Welcome back to another episode of Somewhere Between, Somewhere Between,
2
00:00:39.119 --> 00:00:41.520
a film and TV podcast where your hosts I am
3
00:00:41.640 --> 00:00:44.679
Daniel Park and I'm Merwin Trow and number one, thank
4
00:00:44.719 --> 00:00:46.560
you so much for listening and watching.
5
00:00:46.679 --> 00:00:48.399
Number two. What are they gonna do? They're gonna like
6
00:00:48.479 --> 00:00:51.240
comment and subscribe? Please do it when we're there.
7
00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:57.240
Seventeen, Irwin, I'm gonna skip a few numbers. What is
8
00:00:57.439 --> 00:00:59.079
it that we are reviewing?
9
00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:03.320
Make you so yeah? Not seventeen again, Mickey seventeen.
10
00:01:03.359 --> 00:01:05.359
Also, I'm kind of curious. We're kind of cutting in
11
00:01:05.359 --> 00:01:07.319
a little bit here, but in the title thing, I
12
00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:09.760
was like, help far into this movie?
13
00:01:09.799 --> 00:01:11.079
Does the title drop? You know?
14
00:01:11.159 --> 00:01:13.760
Oh yeah, I like it's one of those IMDb fun
15
00:01:13.799 --> 00:01:15.560
fact trivia. I'm sure you're gonna find out where it's like.
16
00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:17.560
Mickey seventeen, as a matter of fact, doesn't drop the
17
00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:21.560
title until forty five minutes in. But there's another one
18
00:01:21.599 --> 00:01:22.959
that did that. I think it's r R R.
19
00:01:23.599 --> 00:01:25.000
But oh yeah.
20
00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:28.480
What we are going to ask Irwin here before we
21
00:01:28.599 --> 00:01:32.799
fully get into it is Bung June Hoe's previous work.
22
00:01:33.079 --> 00:01:34.359
What do you think of it? What have you seen?
23
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:40.599
I've seen, of course, Parasite. Yeah, I've seen the host
24
00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:44.920
I've seen did he do the who did the the
25
00:01:44.959 --> 00:01:46.760
movie with the train to Busay?
26
00:01:47.959 --> 00:01:50.200
No? A different person? Oh? What was I see done?
27
00:01:50.319 --> 00:01:53.239
Snow Piercer? I have seen that one? Yeah, different train movie.
28
00:01:53.519 --> 00:01:56.319
Have you seen the show? No? Actually with d V Diggs?
29
00:01:56.319 --> 00:01:59.079
Have you seen it? No, I've heard good things about it? Actually,
30
00:01:59.719 --> 00:02:04.079
but what else has he made? I let me ask
31
00:02:04.200 --> 00:02:09.520
you have you seen him for yes? Yeah, you do
32
00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:10.560
that one. Yes.
33
00:02:10.800 --> 00:02:12.800
Let me ask you what you think of these movies?
34
00:02:12.840 --> 00:02:16.039
While I like just to clarify which other ones you've done?
35
00:02:16.599 --> 00:02:20.400
No? No, no, what do you think of his work? While
36
00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:21.080
I look this up?
37
00:02:21.479 --> 00:02:24.919
Yeah, it's amazing, fantastic. I never He's definitely a director
38
00:02:24.960 --> 00:02:29.439
that can tell a great story while having while utilizing
39
00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:32.960
like a variety of characters in his movies.
40
00:02:33.759 --> 00:02:37.680
Oh okay, so Memories of Murder is what it's called?
41
00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:40.360
And Mother, which I've heard amazing things about, have not
42
00:02:40.439 --> 00:02:44.199
seen and Barking Dogs Never Bite.
43
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:48.400
So a few of these his earliest not made that many.
44
00:02:48.599 --> 00:02:52.000
No, not really, but he does have, you know, a
45
00:02:52.120 --> 00:02:54.680
very particular type of staying power. And he's one of
46
00:02:54.680 --> 00:02:58.199
the ones where at this point in time, so clearly
47
00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:00.439
he's one of those directors that gets a blank check
48
00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:02.840
to do whatever he wants. It's so clear based off
49
00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:06.759
of the movie that we just saw. But I also
50
00:03:06.919 --> 00:03:09.039
want to echo your same sentiments Parasite.
51
00:03:09.039 --> 00:03:09.919
I haven't seen that show.
52
00:03:10.520 --> 00:03:12.719
No, not that's good too. We'll talk about Daryville when
53
00:03:12.759 --> 00:03:15.479
we get to when we get there. But Parasite is,
54
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:18.080
of course, naturally one of the best movies ever made.
55
00:03:18.120 --> 00:03:20.199
It's one of those ones that like exploded. It's the
56
00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:23.240
reason why I think Mickey seventeen exists in the first place,
57
00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:26.000
is because you watch something like that, of course, naturally
58
00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:28.599
everyone's going to be like, well, what is someone that
59
00:03:28.639 --> 00:03:30.400
made something like this going to do next?
60
00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:31.719
Oakja.
61
00:03:32.680 --> 00:03:34.960
First time I saw it, I liked it, I appreciated it.
62
00:03:34.960 --> 00:03:37.479
I didn't think I quite got on its full wavelength.
63
00:03:37.520 --> 00:03:39.840
But then I saw it again just a couple of
64
00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:41.759
years ago, and that's one of the most prime examples
65
00:03:41.800 --> 00:03:44.360
I can think of of I think this movie is incredible,
66
00:03:44.360 --> 00:03:46.639
and I'm glad that I saw it again because my I.
67
00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:48.680
Think I only saw it once, but I remember loving it.
68
00:03:48.800 --> 00:03:51.840
Yeah, it's very We're gonna bring oak Ja up again
69
00:03:51.879 --> 00:03:54.599
because that's the one that's most reminiscent here. Snow Piercer,
70
00:03:54.639 --> 00:03:56.560
I think is an amazing movie, not what you think
71
00:03:56.599 --> 00:03:59.719
it's going to be. But what do all of these
72
00:03:59.759 --> 00:04:04.840
movies have in common for me is their themes and
73
00:04:04.919 --> 00:04:09.120
allegories are maybe about as unsubtle as it gets. I
74
00:04:09.159 --> 00:04:13.280
think that when it comes to his American films, they're funnier,
75
00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:19.240
and they also where their themes on their sleeve, basically
76
00:04:19.439 --> 00:04:24.800
like leading into all of that and prior knowledge as well.
77
00:04:25.879 --> 00:04:28.720
With this movie, did you love it? Did you hate it?
78
00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:32.160
Or are you somewhere between? I loved it? Yeah, yeah
79
00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:32.480
I did.
80
00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:35.519
I Okay, So even while watching it, I've seen some
81
00:04:35.560 --> 00:04:36.800
of the responses to this movie.
82
00:04:36.839 --> 00:04:38.639
I've seen that what are they saying?
83
00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:41.000
So it's at like seventy eight or seventy nine percent
84
00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:42.800
around Tomatoes. But some of the people that have hated
85
00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:45.439
this movie hate this movie? Why would they hate They
86
00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:48.480
think it's too over the top. They think that it
87
00:04:48.560 --> 00:04:52.199
is super unsubtle, which I mean, that's a critique that
88
00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:56.839
I understand. But they also think that it's messy, unfocused.
89
00:04:57.720 --> 00:05:01.680
And while I understand were all of that's coming from,
90
00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:04.000
I'm not that I also love this movie quite a bit.
91
00:05:04.079 --> 00:05:06.319
I like, see, Okay, I guess when we talk about it,
92
00:05:06.319 --> 00:05:07.160
we'll talk about.
93
00:05:06.920 --> 00:05:09.800
It like if there were anything I would say, I
94
00:05:09.839 --> 00:05:12.240
think that this movie actually has a whole lot to say,
95
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:14.360
because of course it does, but it makes like six
96
00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:18.160
different themes relevant at once. I feel like it's a
97
00:05:18.160 --> 00:05:21.040
really tricky balance, and I respect that a movie with
98
00:05:21.079 --> 00:05:25.120
this budget is like this. There's like it's sort of
99
00:05:25.160 --> 00:05:29.560
an adventury comedy thing, but it's also really dark and
100
00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:34.600
violent and off putting and simultaneous makes you question.
101
00:05:34.360 --> 00:05:36.040
A lot of things, and like the choices and like
102
00:05:36.040 --> 00:05:40.040
the ethical principles of like of what the themes are
103
00:05:40.079 --> 00:05:40.959
going on in the movie.
104
00:05:41.120 --> 00:05:43.040
Yeah, before we get into all of that, because that's
105
00:05:43.079 --> 00:05:45.720
going to be like everything we review has full spoilers.
106
00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:48.600
What did you love about this? What I loved about
107
00:05:48.600 --> 00:05:50.240
this was like the characters in the movie.
108
00:05:50.480 --> 00:05:53.199
Yeah, especially of course was like Robert Patterson as like
109
00:05:53.319 --> 00:05:58.399
the variations of Mickey's and but also the world building.
110
00:05:58.639 --> 00:05:59.759
Yeah, I don't know.
111
00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:02.560
I I think whenever it would focus back and forth
112
00:06:02.600 --> 00:06:07.720
with the editing style of like showcasing like different story
113
00:06:07.759 --> 00:06:10.600
points and how it's gonna be utilized later.
114
00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:12.439
On in the movie, right, and one of.
115
00:06:12.399 --> 00:06:16.360
Them being like the okay, like, how are we going
116
00:06:16.439 --> 00:06:21.480
to do with the fact of possibility of being multiples?
117
00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:24.839
Right? Yeah? And they use of an example of a
118
00:06:24.879 --> 00:06:28.279
scientist who was a multiple and was also a murderer
119
00:06:28.279 --> 00:06:29.920
on the loose, which I love.
120
00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:31.879
That was like yeah, and they casually just bring it
121
00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:35.720
in saying like, well, all these philosophers and scientists and
122
00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:38.319
all these debates are having, like whether or not like
123
00:06:38.519 --> 00:06:41.040
or do you consider these people as just like each
124
00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:45.000
individual or is just one person in religious beliefs, as
125
00:06:45.040 --> 00:06:47.279
well as like one body is one soul.
126
00:06:47.959 --> 00:06:50.319
So I like bringing up all those ideas.
127
00:06:49.920 --> 00:06:53.920
Definitely helps a lot with like the emotional toll when
128
00:06:53.920 --> 00:06:57.639
you get to see Mickey seventeen and Mickey eighteen as well.
129
00:06:57.480 --> 00:06:59.680
Because it's one of those natural questions that you're going
130
00:06:59.720 --> 00:07:03.600
to ask, ask where eighteen is such a different being
131
00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:06.639
yes than seventeen. But I feel like the point that
132
00:07:06.680 --> 00:07:10.360
this movie is making is that you are kind of
133
00:07:10.399 --> 00:07:14.839
being beaten down by your job, by the system, by
134
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:18.839
anything having to do with working for the higher whatever
135
00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:23.160
it is, that you start to kind of lose yourself
136
00:07:23.240 --> 00:07:26.879
in that. In that also, this like snow Piercer like
137
00:07:26.879 --> 00:07:30.000
snow Piercer. Snow Piercer is also quite literally about climbing
138
00:07:30.040 --> 00:07:32.079
your way to the top like that, and it is
139
00:07:32.120 --> 00:07:35.759
a literal. He shows it visually like there's no way
140
00:07:35.800 --> 00:07:37.120
to miss it here.
141
00:07:38.240 --> 00:07:38.800
Same thing.
142
00:07:38.879 --> 00:07:41.279
It's basically this movie, This entire movie is the equivalent
143
00:07:41.319 --> 00:07:43.439
to that SpongeBob meme where it's the guy It's like,
144
00:07:43.800 --> 00:07:45.360
look at you in your first day of work.
145
00:07:45.399 --> 00:07:47.839
You were so happy.
146
00:07:48.319 --> 00:07:50.680
But this would be like Mickey seventeen or Mickey one,
147
00:07:50.879 --> 00:07:52.040
and then Mickey eighteen.
148
00:07:52.120 --> 00:07:54.279
I always love I love the question they kept asking
149
00:07:54.319 --> 00:07:56.920
too towards Mickey. It's like, now, what does dying feel like?
150
00:07:57.319 --> 00:08:00.720
Over and over again? And it kind of and the
151
00:08:00.759 --> 00:08:04.240
answer that Mickey always gives seems so like a response
152
00:08:04.279 --> 00:08:07.480
you would give. How are you enjoying your work? You know,
153
00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:10.920
it's whatever it happens at my job.
154
00:08:11.040 --> 00:08:14.639
This is such a common older man response is.
155
00:08:15.000 --> 00:08:18.079
Live in the dream. That's it, you go. I hate that.
156
00:08:18.360 --> 00:08:21.279
Just recently, I got another day in paradise and then
157
00:08:21.319 --> 00:08:22.040
they call me big D.
158
00:08:22.279 --> 00:08:32.519
But I don't know what they called the D. I
159
00:08:32.519 --> 00:08:32.840
don't know.
160
00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:37.559
I'm not the wrizzler. I don't have a the in
161
00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:42.440
front of my nickname, why not? But no, I fully
162
00:08:43.519 --> 00:08:46.879
I love that. By the way, the whole question of
163
00:08:47.440 --> 00:08:49.279
what does it feel like to die? It's repeated enough
164
00:08:49.320 --> 00:08:52.519
times and he's like, I cannot do an impression of
165
00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:53.879
that voice. Whatever voice that is.
166
00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:57.519
He does a great job of like just different voices. Yeah.
167
00:08:57.759 --> 00:09:01.639
I didn't realize how often his voices are different on
168
00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:04.000
every like in all the movies that I've seen him in.
169
00:09:04.320 --> 00:09:07.360
If you do, like if you watch an interview with him,
170
00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:11.120
I think his closest accent in real life is that
171
00:09:11.279 --> 00:09:13.919
to like Goblet of Fire. Yes, but he hasn't done
172
00:09:14.000 --> 00:09:16.720
it since that, and then you kind of like forget,
173
00:09:17.320 --> 00:09:20.320
like in good Time, I like, I'm so American. He's
174
00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:23.399
like doing this New York like, oh from the great
175
00:09:23.759 --> 00:09:28.440
type accent here. It sounds very much worker Steve Buscemi,
176
00:09:28.440 --> 00:09:30.080
because he said he was inspired by Fargo.
177
00:09:30.759 --> 00:09:33.039
Oh this one. Yeah, Oh I could see that, but
178
00:09:33.080 --> 00:09:35.799
he said that, yeah, especially with the snow and everything.
179
00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:38.399
Yeah, he said he kind of got that. He didn't
180
00:09:38.399 --> 00:09:40.159
even realize he was doing that until after the fact,
181
00:09:40.200 --> 00:09:41.639
and he was like, then I watched Fargo again. He
182
00:09:41.720 --> 00:09:47.120
was like, oh, my accent is this? But I loved
183
00:09:47.360 --> 00:09:50.879
that repeated question over and over in this movie. If
184
00:09:50.919 --> 00:09:53.399
you feel like it got repetitive at all, which I didn't,
185
00:09:53.480 --> 00:09:57.480
I get it because it's making sure that you understand.
186
00:09:56.879 --> 00:09:59.200
Like how it was feeling, yeah, what it's about.
187
00:09:59.360 --> 00:10:03.559
Yeah, And and it's like constant barrage of this is work,
188
00:10:03.639 --> 00:10:06.559
like this is the work. And even at the beginning,
189
00:10:06.720 --> 00:10:11.080
like something that I also loved, which you brought up already,
190
00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:15.039
there's good narration is amazing. Yes, And I feel like
191
00:10:15.120 --> 00:10:17.399
the whole back and forth the setup is a little
192
00:10:17.440 --> 00:10:20.840
bit long, the expository part of it, the exposition, yes,
193
00:10:21.080 --> 00:10:24.639
but I thought that that was okay, just because this
194
00:10:24.759 --> 00:10:27.679
movie in terms of what it's doing, it definitely has
195
00:10:27.720 --> 00:10:30.000
a kind of first half and a second half, I feel,
196
00:10:30.320 --> 00:10:33.679
And the second half is once Mickey eighteen is introduced,
197
00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:34.919
it becomes.
198
00:10:34.759 --> 00:10:37.879
And evolves into a different type of thing. Good cup
199
00:10:37.919 --> 00:10:38.399
back Cup.
200
00:10:38.559 --> 00:10:40.360
Yeah, even though they kind of end up having a
201
00:10:40.399 --> 00:10:43.240
sort of weird like friendship in a way with each other.
202
00:10:43.919 --> 00:10:47.679
But alongside all of that, I loved the whole, like
203
00:10:47.720 --> 00:10:50.480
the joke about like did you read the contract that
204
00:10:50.519 --> 00:10:51.039
you agreed to?
205
00:10:51.039 --> 00:10:53.159
It's like I should have read the paperwork.
206
00:10:53.799 --> 00:10:57.600
And this movie has some sort of weird tone balance
207
00:10:57.679 --> 00:11:00.480
for sure. Yes, because they're on the run from like
208
00:11:00.559 --> 00:11:02.919
a there's a lot going on in this movie, by
209
00:11:02.960 --> 00:11:04.799
the way, but they're even on the run from some
210
00:11:04.840 --> 00:11:07.320
sort of loan shark, and they because they own their
211
00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:08.200
own money for like a.
212
00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:12.440
Macaroon shop, macaroons are better than burgers. And you're like,
213
00:11:12.519 --> 00:11:15.559
what and the ship said the macaroon is not a sin?
214
00:11:15.639 --> 00:11:17.559
I think, yeah, yeah, it's exactly what I said. You're like,
215
00:11:17.600 --> 00:11:18.919
what is it? Okay?
216
00:11:19.320 --> 00:11:20.840
Honestly, I don't know if it's a hot take. I
217
00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:23.240
don't agree with that, but I never thought not the
218
00:11:23.240 --> 00:11:27.240
same part, but macaroons are You're going to hell?
219
00:11:27.679 --> 00:11:30.960
No? I mean more so like I love macaroons, I don't.
220
00:11:31.399 --> 00:11:32.200
I don't think they're.
221
00:11:32.000 --> 00:11:34.600
Better than burgers though, but who's gonna who's about to
222
00:11:34.639 --> 00:11:35.600
make that comparison?
223
00:11:35.960 --> 00:11:38.240
That's a weird person. But what else did you love
224
00:11:38.279 --> 00:11:40.039
about this? I love?
225
00:11:40.840 --> 00:11:42.879
What I love about this movie is also the characters
226
00:11:42.919 --> 00:11:49.320
in it, so introducing like Mark Ruffalo and Tony Yeah
227
00:11:49.360 --> 00:11:55.399
and yeah yeah, just like every character just like felt
228
00:11:55.440 --> 00:11:58.000
like their individual person and they always have like these
229
00:11:58.320 --> 00:12:00.399
these unique characteristics about them.
230
00:12:00.200 --> 00:12:03.519
That set them apart from everybody else. And when they
231
00:12:03.519 --> 00:12:07.799
all have a conversation with one another, it definitely feels
232
00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:10.519
like a believable situation that they're all in. Yeah, and
233
00:12:10.559 --> 00:12:14.440
that's what I really like about his like movies as a.
234
00:12:14.360 --> 00:12:16.279
Whole, Like at least the ones that I've seen, Yeah,
235
00:12:16.799 --> 00:12:19.639
he definitely makes it. He definitely puts it as like
236
00:12:19.679 --> 00:12:23.519
an important thing where the characters drive the story and
237
00:12:23.600 --> 00:12:24.759
push the story along.
238
00:12:25.440 --> 00:12:30.480
I don't think I've ever seen one of his movies
239
00:12:30.679 --> 00:12:35.360
where the narrative drove everything. Essentially, what happens is characters
240
00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:39.399
are introduced first and yes foremost, and then everything else
241
00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:41.240
around them, their world whatever.
242
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:41.519
Like.
243
00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:44.320
The choices that the characters make drive the story.
244
00:12:44.399 --> 00:12:46.759
And that's what I love because Oakja has some character
245
00:12:46.879 --> 00:12:49.639
choices that frustrate you. Parasite has some character choices that
246
00:12:49.679 --> 00:12:52.639
frustrate you, and this is all for the sake of
247
00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:57.960
the characters growing. I think he is unparalleled with coming
248
00:12:58.039 --> 00:13:00.360
up with Even though this takes place it's more in
249
00:13:00.399 --> 00:13:04.080
like an actual reality Parasite does, he is still so
250
00:13:04.240 --> 00:13:07.039
good at introducing you to a world, a part of
251
00:13:07.080 --> 00:13:10.159
the world, whether it be Oakcha or Parasite or this one,
252
00:13:10.559 --> 00:13:15.039
and you just understand everything going on like the something
253
00:13:15.039 --> 00:13:18.039
as simple as whenever they were talking about we're going
254
00:13:18.080 --> 00:13:20.840
to go colonize a different planet we're working on like
255
00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:23.399
a spaceship, and then you're just kind of accept where
256
00:13:23.440 --> 00:13:26.759
you are. You're like this is reality, like you to me,
257
00:13:26.960 --> 00:13:31.480
there's seventeen mickeys and then like there's eighteen now yeah.
258
00:13:31.279 --> 00:13:31.799
Like oh my god.
259
00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:33.960
And it's like very subtle too, where it's like Mark
260
00:13:34.039 --> 00:13:37.080
Ruffo's character is like he's lost like the last two elections,
261
00:13:37.279 --> 00:13:40.720
yeah and everything, and that's why he's leading this like expedition.
262
00:13:40.399 --> 00:13:42.480
Yeah, to go and try to He wants to be
263
00:13:42.559 --> 00:13:46.360
the king of wherever they're going. And I also like that,
264
00:13:46.480 --> 00:13:48.279
like it's very obvious to me, like if we're going
265
00:13:48.320 --> 00:13:50.000
to start talking about like I do also love the
266
00:13:50.080 --> 00:13:53.120
characters in this. Mark Ruffalo is a very clear stand
267
00:13:53.240 --> 00:13:56.440
in for Donald Trump, and I feel like this movie
268
00:13:56.759 --> 00:14:00.519
it's interesting because he is a Korean filmmaker but obviously
269
00:14:00.600 --> 00:14:06.360
has interest in American politics or American going on. Oak
270
00:14:06.480 --> 00:14:09.200
Joe was a lot about the meat industry. I'm sure
271
00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:12.759
it was a critique of Tyson as well, but we
272
00:14:12.840 --> 00:14:15.120
hate the Tyson company. Yeah, I refuse to eat anything. Also,
273
00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:16.240
their stuff does taste worse.
274
00:14:16.679 --> 00:14:19.240
But I just hate the fact that they what they
275
00:14:19.279 --> 00:14:21.279
on like half of all chicken products.
276
00:14:21.279 --> 00:14:21.919
Oh that's true.
277
00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:24.919
Yeah, you have like a huge like capitalist like yeah,
278
00:14:25.159 --> 00:14:29.440
I forgot the other half. I don't know, Kirkland Kirk.
279
00:14:30.480 --> 00:14:33.240
But Steven John's also amazing in this. He keeps picking
280
00:14:33.240 --> 00:14:35.799
these like sleazy, douchey guys to play.
281
00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:37.440
I get it, guy, I get it.
282
00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:40.759
You saw beef right, Yeah I did. Yeah, he's amazing
283
00:14:40.799 --> 00:14:42.440
in that. He's kind of doing the same sort of
284
00:14:42.519 --> 00:14:44.759
like douchey energy for sure.
285
00:14:45.519 --> 00:14:47.320
But that's another thing.
286
00:14:47.320 --> 00:14:49.159
The way this movie like starts and you're kind of
287
00:14:49.960 --> 00:14:52.200
like even just from the get go, you're sort of
288
00:14:52.200 --> 00:14:54.919
introduced where he's you think he's like already dying. You're
289
00:14:55.000 --> 00:14:57.799
kind of immersed in this world already, Like Nifflheim sounds
290
00:14:57.799 --> 00:14:59.919
like something from like Thor or The Ring.
291
00:15:00.120 --> 00:15:01.679
Yeah.
292
00:15:01.720 --> 00:15:05.639
Another thing though, like in terms of the world building
293
00:15:05.720 --> 00:15:09.080
being amazing in this, those creatures, the creepers so cool.
294
00:15:09.279 --> 00:15:11.600
I love the way that they look, Yeah, but.
295
00:15:11.960 --> 00:15:15.279
I like their Yeah, their design looks amazing, and I
296
00:15:15.279 --> 00:15:17.919
guess like the progression of how we learn about these
297
00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:21.159
creatures as well throughout the movie was also great. Yeah,
298
00:15:21.399 --> 00:15:23.039
Like I like the fact of us not really knowing
299
00:15:23.279 --> 00:15:25.799
what they are and like what they do yet until later.
300
00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:28.519
On in the movie. Yeah, and then just also knowing
301
00:15:28.519 --> 00:15:31.080
the fact that they don't really hurt anyone or can't
302
00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:33.679
hurt anyone. No. I love that says a lot too.
303
00:15:33.559 --> 00:15:37.600
About like us as like a mankind just willing to
304
00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:40.399
start a war when we just don't understand what's going on.
305
00:15:40.559 --> 00:15:42.919
Yeah, No, there's even they're like they're in the middle
306
00:15:42.960 --> 00:15:44.799
of a conflict in like the third part of this
307
00:15:44.960 --> 00:15:48.639
movie where Naomi Aki, which we haven't even talked about yet,
308
00:15:48.720 --> 00:15:50.799
who's kind of the anchor of this movie actually, like
309
00:15:50.919 --> 00:15:54.120
obviously Robert Pattinson's the main character, but this movie is
310
00:15:54.159 --> 00:15:57.519
more romantically driven than you might think it would be,
311
00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:01.399
and because he does everything he does for her character, yes,
312
00:16:01.799 --> 00:16:05.679
at the end of the day, but just in terms
313
00:16:05.879 --> 00:16:09.279
of a part of the world building that I love
314
00:16:09.840 --> 00:16:12.159
and you can tell just based off of how they're
315
00:16:12.200 --> 00:16:14.279
marketing this movie. And then it was clarified by something
316
00:16:14.279 --> 00:16:18.320
that Robert Pattinson. It said the way the creepers talk
317
00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:22.720
in terms of even when they bluff that they are
318
00:16:22.759 --> 00:16:26.440
going to kill all of humanity, whatever.
319
00:16:26.200 --> 00:16:28.480
They say cause an extinction.
320
00:16:28.720 --> 00:16:32.200
Yeah, what it reminded me of is anything coming out of.
321
00:16:32.200 --> 00:16:33.159
A Ghibli movie.
322
00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:36.279
It felt very much like the energy from that. And
323
00:16:36.320 --> 00:16:40.120
then Robert Pattinson himself said, I've actually I watch a
324
00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:42.559
lot of anime and I modeled part of how my
325
00:16:42.639 --> 00:16:45.840
characters act based entirely off of anime. It was like,
326
00:16:45.879 --> 00:16:49.480
this is a very like anime driven feeling type of movie.
327
00:16:49.799 --> 00:16:51.639
I was like, that makes so much sense just based
328
00:16:51.639 --> 00:16:54.039
off of how they treat the animals.
329
00:16:53.519 --> 00:16:54.440
That they made up for this.
330
00:16:54.519 --> 00:16:57.879
It felt it probably like of course, you know, studied
331
00:16:57.879 --> 00:16:59.159
for the boy in the hair and when he was
332
00:16:59.159 --> 00:17:00.000
looking on that.
333
00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:02.600
Yeah, I can say like be similar to like Princess Monon,
334
00:17:02.679 --> 00:17:06.240
Okay exactly, Yeah, just that sort of like harmonious energy
335
00:17:06.359 --> 00:17:07.480
with nature.
336
00:17:08.160 --> 00:17:12.559
And it's not even a critique so much like, of course,
337
00:17:12.559 --> 00:17:14.920
it's a critique on how we treat animals like Mark
338
00:17:14.960 --> 00:17:16.920
Ruffalo's immediately kill them on and you're like, for what,
339
00:17:17.000 --> 00:17:17.599
they haven't.
340
00:17:17.359 --> 00:17:19.720
Even done anything. Yeah, they haven't even shown any kind
341
00:17:19.720 --> 00:17:22.559
of violent nature really well, like anything to like actually
342
00:17:22.599 --> 00:17:23.400
hurt humans.
343
00:17:23.720 --> 00:17:27.720
Yeah, And so that's obviously like this movie's about so
344
00:17:27.799 --> 00:17:31.200
many separate things and is there anything else that stood
345
00:17:31.200 --> 00:17:33.160
out to you as like the just in terms of
346
00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:35.480
what it was about that you like really gravitated to.
347
00:17:35.680 --> 00:17:37.119
I think when I really.
348
00:17:38.319 --> 00:17:42.519
What stood out to me was just the just that
349
00:17:42.680 --> 00:17:46.799
ethical question of whether or not these multiples are if
350
00:17:46.839 --> 00:17:50.839
we just treat them as like individuals or one whole person, Yeah, right,
351
00:17:51.000 --> 00:17:53.400
and just bringing up that question, and then just seeing
352
00:17:53.400 --> 00:17:55.119
whenever that question got brought up in the very beginning
353
00:17:55.160 --> 00:17:58.079
of the movie, and then it's just that question kept
354
00:17:58.119 --> 00:18:02.440
slowly like it just kept like creeping behind.
355
00:18:02.440 --> 00:18:05.680
Creepers and minecraft.
356
00:18:06.799 --> 00:18:10.200
Creeping behind anytime you would see these multiples together and
357
00:18:10.240 --> 00:18:13.759
how everybody else would treat them as well. And I
358
00:18:13.759 --> 00:18:15.640
guess whenever they brought up that one example with that
359
00:18:15.720 --> 00:18:18.000
scientist and then him being a murder and like having
360
00:18:18.079 --> 00:18:21.480
multiples of himself too, it just made me question more
361
00:18:21.519 --> 00:18:24.039
so like are these people like, are these like you know,
362
00:18:24.160 --> 00:18:27.759
Mickey seventeen, Mickey eighteen really different from one another? They
363
00:18:27.799 --> 00:18:31.599
seem different, like at different and like the choices that
364
00:18:31.640 --> 00:18:34.480
they're making too, especially when like they're certain shots in
365
00:18:34.559 --> 00:18:37.799
the in the movie too, where ye like later in
366
00:18:37.839 --> 00:18:42.440
the end of the movie where Naomi Aki is like
367
00:18:42.559 --> 00:18:45.960
about to kill Steven yen and then you got Mickey
368
00:18:45.960 --> 00:18:48.200
seventeen saying no, don't do it, and make you eighteen
369
00:18:48.960 --> 00:18:51.880
the right saying do it kill them the devil?
370
00:18:52.400 --> 00:18:52.599
Yes?
371
00:18:53.039 --> 00:18:54.559
And so it's just like one of those two things,
372
00:18:54.559 --> 00:18:58.359
like these people look like they're doing different things, like
373
00:18:58.440 --> 00:19:01.519
different actions, different choices, So they looked different or like
374
00:19:01.559 --> 00:19:03.559
sound different, but they looked the same and everything and
375
00:19:03.559 --> 00:19:04.759
they still have the same memories.
376
00:19:04.920 --> 00:19:05.160
Yeah.
377
00:19:05.240 --> 00:19:07.960
I think it was an interesting visual comparison to like
378
00:19:08.079 --> 00:19:11.799
actually just in terms of as you evolve over the
379
00:19:11.799 --> 00:19:14.000
course of time, people say, were you the same person
380
00:19:14.039 --> 00:19:17.359
that you were however long ago? In this movie kind
381
00:19:17.359 --> 00:19:19.720
of like put me in an existential crisis a little bit,
382
00:19:19.799 --> 00:19:22.160
just because it was a joke scene right with the
383
00:19:22.359 --> 00:19:25.000
murder thing, but it really had me thinking whenever they
384
00:19:25.000 --> 00:19:28.920
were like is the question that they were like corroborators?
385
00:19:29.240 --> 00:19:32.000
Did they act independently or were they told? Or would
386
00:19:32.000 --> 00:19:33.599
they all have done the same thing? Yeah, And then
387
00:19:33.599 --> 00:19:36.119
for some reason I was like, oh no, I don't.
388
00:19:35.920 --> 00:19:40.119
Know even with the science, like the science who like
389
00:19:40.359 --> 00:19:43.640
multiple I had multiples of himself made me think because
390
00:19:43.640 --> 00:19:45.720
I'm like, wait, was there only one of them? Like
391
00:19:45.799 --> 00:19:47.960
one of that like multiple I just went out to
392
00:19:47.960 --> 00:19:50.000
start killing people, and the other ones just did nothing
393
00:19:50.039 --> 00:19:52.480
else and just did their normal things as like normal
394
00:19:52.480 --> 00:19:55.759
people in society. So and then makes me think like, wait,
395
00:19:56.319 --> 00:20:00.279
I guess every person just had their own like personality
396
00:20:00.359 --> 00:20:01.680
and like their own choices that they.
397
00:20:01.559 --> 00:20:02.000
Want to make.
398
00:20:02.160 --> 00:20:04.720
But if you were to have done that many of them,
399
00:20:04.759 --> 00:20:07.440
like do you lose part of your personality for that,
400
00:20:07.480 --> 00:20:09.400
like all at once? Or like does it focus on one,
401
00:20:09.559 --> 00:20:11.880
you know, strong centered part of you? Yeah, this is
402
00:20:12.039 --> 00:20:14.240
just like the moral question that was asked in Leelan
403
00:20:14.240 --> 00:20:15.400
and Stitch to Stitch.
404
00:20:15.240 --> 00:20:17.359
Has a glitch. That was good.
405
00:20:17.440 --> 00:20:29.880
Dude, that was good. I couldn't helped. I thought about
406
00:20:29.920 --> 00:20:30.640
that movie during this.
407
00:20:30.720 --> 00:20:31.319
I was like, this is it?
408
00:20:31.799 --> 00:20:39.200
Like no, and so that's good, Like this movie has
409
00:20:39.240 --> 00:20:41.400
so many different things going for it, like of course
410
00:20:41.440 --> 00:20:43.920
we're going to bring up our negatives if.
411
00:20:43.799 --> 00:20:47.240
We have any, but the I think I have one negative.
412
00:20:47.319 --> 00:20:48.880
I kind of have one, but it's one of those
413
00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:50.839
things where I'm like, do I care that much? But
414
00:20:50.880 --> 00:20:53.279
of course we'll bring up what other people thought whenever
415
00:20:53.319 --> 00:20:55.799
we don't have too many. I like to mention what
416
00:20:55.880 --> 00:21:00.839
I've read. But if you think it's messy, I understand, that,
417
00:21:00.920 --> 00:21:02.440
but I also feel like this movie just has a
418
00:21:02.440 --> 00:21:05.440
lot on its mind, and that's all right, Like did
419
00:21:05.480 --> 00:21:08.720
you feel like it kind of changed narratively, like thematically
420
00:21:08.720 --> 00:21:10.160
what it was about Like halfway through.
421
00:21:10.359 --> 00:21:13.279
I think he just kept changing based off the characters
422
00:21:13.599 --> 00:21:16.119
and like what we're going through because of course you
423
00:21:16.160 --> 00:21:21.319
have like this. They have like one thing they're talking
424
00:21:21.359 --> 00:21:24.599
about with like multiples, and then they're having another thing
425
00:21:24.799 --> 00:21:28.759
about having a pure race.
426
00:21:28.960 --> 00:21:29.799
That was so rare.
427
00:21:29.960 --> 00:21:32.720
I was just like whoa what and just saying like
428
00:21:32.839 --> 00:21:35.200
or like they choose that one girl saying like you
429
00:21:35.319 --> 00:21:37.680
are the perfect candidates for us, oh my god.
430
00:21:37.720 --> 00:21:38.680
Whatever. It was like.
431
00:21:40.160 --> 00:21:44.680
It's like the perfect specimen or whatever. Yeah, but then
432
00:21:45.119 --> 00:21:48.079
seems totally fine with it. Yeah, it's so strange.
433
00:21:48.119 --> 00:21:50.480
I was like what And it's like different themes or
434
00:21:50.480 --> 00:21:53.839
like just different things are just happening around this movie.
435
00:21:54.400 --> 00:21:56.920
But they all have but just based off the characters,
436
00:21:56.960 --> 00:21:59.279
and that's what really drives like the story, right.
437
00:21:59.839 --> 00:22:03.400
So naturally, of course this starts off with it's a
438
00:22:03.440 --> 00:22:06.839
critique on the working industry on how you can sort
439
00:22:06.839 --> 00:22:10.079
of treat laborers however, take them to hell and back,
440
00:22:10.119 --> 00:22:11.359
and then at the end of the day, they're like
441
00:22:11.400 --> 00:22:14.799
you are just another worker. Like you're like, if you die,
442
00:22:15.400 --> 00:22:17.799
this is obviously to the extreme to make the point.
443
00:22:18.519 --> 00:22:21.440
If you quit, if you get fired, if you die,
444
00:22:21.680 --> 00:22:24.519
whatever it may be, we will just you are replaceable.
445
00:22:25.079 --> 00:22:29.279
And so whenever Mark Ruffalo says like I don't care
446
00:22:29.359 --> 00:22:31.480
like kill him, like we could just get another one,
447
00:22:31.480 --> 00:22:34.720
like he's expendable. Yeah, they're I think they literally call
448
00:22:34.759 --> 00:22:38.240
them expendables, right, yeah, yeah, yeah.
449
00:22:38.240 --> 00:22:40.680
Or four there's four of them. Yeah, remember we talked
450
00:22:40.680 --> 00:22:41.000
about that.
451
00:22:41.640 --> 00:22:46.319
Yeah, And then it evolves into something else where it's
452
00:22:46.400 --> 00:22:50.119
kind of like, all right, so the sense of self,
453
00:22:50.160 --> 00:22:52.640
the sense of identity, like who am I really? If
454
00:22:53.039 --> 00:22:55.240
I loved whenever he was like I don't know, he
455
00:22:55.319 --> 00:22:57.440
was like I was just I would get replaced and
456
00:22:57.480 --> 00:22:59.640
then I would come right back out and he was like,
457
00:23:00.559 --> 00:23:04.079
if you're here, then I'm just gone. And I loved
458
00:23:04.119 --> 00:23:06.519
that so much, And like it's one of this movie
459
00:23:06.599 --> 00:23:08.799
drops like small lines of dialogue that kind of sends
460
00:23:08.839 --> 00:23:10.319
you into like a spiral a little bit.
461
00:23:10.319 --> 00:23:11.200
But then I forgot about that.
462
00:23:12.759 --> 00:23:14.359
But then the movie just kind of keeps going. You're
463
00:23:14.440 --> 00:23:17.799
like until it sort of drops another thing on you
464
00:23:18.519 --> 00:23:22.960
where it just like evolves, like I said, and then
465
00:23:23.000 --> 00:23:25.480
once it gets past that, then it's sort of asking
466
00:23:25.519 --> 00:23:29.000
the question of like talking about colonialism and then whether
467
00:23:29.119 --> 00:23:31.680
or not it's okay to you know, take over somebody
468
00:23:31.680 --> 00:23:35.680
else's space, and like how obviously the US has done
469
00:23:35.720 --> 00:23:38.640
that since we're literally pioneered and built off of that
470
00:23:39.240 --> 00:23:41.240
in history. And I think it's funny that bangs you
471
00:23:41.279 --> 00:23:43.319
and Ho from Korea. I should look up if they
472
00:23:43.359 --> 00:23:46.160
have any history, if anything like that gravitated to that
473
00:23:46.359 --> 00:23:48.279
in just terms of.
474
00:23:48.240 --> 00:23:49.720
Like US history.
475
00:23:49.839 --> 00:23:53.839
But then like sometimes it'll even go off into the
476
00:23:54.839 --> 00:23:58.359
Another thing is like you know, racism and bigotry about
477
00:23:58.400 --> 00:23:59.279
like the.
478
00:23:59.319 --> 00:24:01.279
Likes yeh, perfect specimens.
479
00:24:01.359 --> 00:24:04.960
Yeah, yeah, just different things that they this movie itself
480
00:24:05.079 --> 00:24:08.519
was just talking about. Yeah, but it was never directly
481
00:24:09.599 --> 00:24:11.839
about it. It's just like the things that the characters, like,
482
00:24:11.880 --> 00:24:12.960
what their goals were.
483
00:24:13.160 --> 00:24:16.440
Yeah, it felt very much like obviously real life. Yes,
484
00:24:16.559 --> 00:24:20.039
we're not focused on one thing. This just kind of
485
00:24:20.160 --> 00:24:23.079
was like whatever was going on. What was going on
486
00:24:23.400 --> 00:24:25.960
was whatever they were having to deal with now naturally
487
00:24:26.599 --> 00:24:29.319
I read I didn't read the book Mickey seven.
488
00:24:30.039 --> 00:24:31.920
Oh yeah, I didn't know it was based off a novel.
489
00:24:32.000 --> 00:24:35.640
Oh really Yeah, but I'd read that. Apparently the book
490
00:24:35.680 --> 00:24:37.319
also does the same thing. It's got a lot on
491
00:24:37.400 --> 00:24:39.799
its mind, so it does change thematically.
492
00:24:39.200 --> 00:24:39.759
Over and over.
493
00:24:39.839 --> 00:24:42.319
Okay, so they retained that energy about it, but it
494
00:24:42.319 --> 00:24:46.160
does sort of land on the third act being about
495
00:24:46.599 --> 00:24:49.519
the whole thing, but between like animals and animals and
496
00:24:49.559 --> 00:24:52.279
then like really like the multiples. Yeah, and then like
497
00:24:52.319 --> 00:24:57.440
living in similar space of course. But then I want
498
00:24:57.599 --> 00:25:00.359
to ask you, like, did you have a favorite scene
499
00:25:00.359 --> 00:25:01.559
in this because I have one.
500
00:25:02.240 --> 00:25:06.880
Oh, what was my favorite scene? Probably when like they're
501
00:25:07.000 --> 00:25:09.119
Mickey seventeen eighteen we're finding one another.
502
00:25:09.720 --> 00:25:11.160
Yeah, that's probably my favorite scene.
503
00:25:11.240 --> 00:25:16.880
My favorite scene takes place at a dinner where oh, it.
504
00:25:16.960 --> 00:25:20.480
Just devolves entirely. I just got gets like worse and worse.
505
00:25:20.880 --> 00:25:23.720
It got worse, and what was it called purple Joe? Oh?
506
00:25:23.799 --> 00:25:27.240
Yeah, then he is awesome. So this movie it's hilarious.
507
00:25:27.240 --> 00:25:30.079
We haven't really gotten to mention yet. It's so funny,
508
00:25:30.079 --> 00:25:31.200
but it's just so subtle.
509
00:25:31.240 --> 00:25:33.799
It's like the subtle comedy type of thing where it's like,
510
00:25:33.839 --> 00:25:35.759
oh no, it's like something bad's happening, but it's so
511
00:25:35.920 --> 00:25:37.319
funny too at the same time.
512
00:25:37.599 --> 00:25:40.160
Whenever like there's a joke that's so deadpan by one
513
00:25:40.160 --> 00:25:45.000
of the scientists where he's like Mark Ruffalo's character is like,
514
00:25:45.039 --> 00:25:47.119
don't beat yourself up about being a failure or whatever
515
00:25:47.200 --> 00:25:48.079
it is, and then he's like.
516
00:25:48.039 --> 00:25:50.240
Sir, the jel's not working.
517
00:25:50.559 --> 00:25:52.720
And then I'm like, you're just like leaving this poor
518
00:25:52.839 --> 00:25:55.079
dude like you know, obviously writhing in pain.
519
00:25:55.559 --> 00:25:59.200
And then like he's like choking and he's like puts
520
00:25:59.200 --> 00:26:00.359
his hand on his face too.
521
00:26:00.519 --> 00:26:05.400
Oh yeah, But Robert Pattinson, of course, you know, it
522
00:26:05.519 --> 00:26:07.839
goes to that being said that he's an incredible actor,
523
00:26:08.559 --> 00:26:11.759
and he of course has a lot physically to do
524
00:26:11.839 --> 00:26:15.079
in this movie as well. But that scene just like
525
00:26:15.240 --> 00:26:18.960
starts from the very beginning where it's a congratulations just
526
00:26:19.000 --> 00:26:21.200
constantly eating like the way that he's eating too, and
527
00:26:21.240 --> 00:26:24.400
then that steak looked raw, and then they were like, oh,
528
00:26:24.480 --> 00:26:27.319
it's a test, by the way, and then I think
529
00:26:27.319 --> 00:26:29.880
it's the character the girl whatever her name was. We
530
00:26:29.880 --> 00:26:33.480
looked it up, but where she was like, did you
531
00:26:33.559 --> 00:26:36.359
test like Jessica, Jessica.
532
00:26:36.440 --> 00:26:41.720
Her name is Jessica. Wait wait, wait wait, I'll look
533
00:26:41.759 --> 00:26:43.440
it up. Well, oh, I'll look it up while you
534
00:26:43.440 --> 00:26:45.680
explained to me, yeah, like she's just wondering.
535
00:26:45.680 --> 00:26:47.400
It's like you were you only brough him in here
536
00:26:47.440 --> 00:26:50.400
just for tests and everything, and then he's like, oh, well,
537
00:26:50.400 --> 00:26:52.039
like we were just testing out these new things. And
538
00:26:52.039 --> 00:26:54.839
then it's just like one test after another with him, yeah,
539
00:26:54.880 --> 00:26:56.559
which is insane. And then they were ready to kill
540
00:26:56.599 --> 00:26:58.480
him off because he didn't seem like he was healing
541
00:26:58.519 --> 00:27:00.359
from the Purple Joe injection.
542
00:27:00.680 --> 00:27:04.119
Yeah, well, okay, before we move on with that. Her
543
00:27:04.200 --> 00:27:08.319
name is Anna Maria vartolemey. Oh, her name is Kai, yeah,
544
00:27:08.400 --> 00:27:12.960
Kai kats in this but oh no, I'm at the actress.
545
00:27:13.480 --> 00:27:16.519
But of course, something that I loved about this is
546
00:27:16.640 --> 00:27:19.200
naturally I think that the first half of the movie,
547
00:27:20.160 --> 00:27:22.880
he says he does everything for Nasha, Yes, but we
548
00:27:22.920 --> 00:27:25.440
don't fully get to see her yet, like we see
549
00:27:25.480 --> 00:27:27.359
them interact. But I feel like she's obviously in the
550
00:27:27.359 --> 00:27:30.119
second half a lot more yes, and we see like
551
00:27:30.200 --> 00:27:33.119
his drive for it at that point.
552
00:27:33.200 --> 00:27:37.799
Yeah, because especially with Mickey seventeen and yeah, because it
553
00:27:37.799 --> 00:27:40.599
seemed like Mickey eighteen was definitely doing his actions. It's like,
554
00:27:41.279 --> 00:27:43.799
I guess like when Mickey, just Mickey as a whole,
555
00:27:44.519 --> 00:27:49.079
had two different goals where he wanted to still be with.
556
00:27:50.799 --> 00:27:54.519
Nasha. I don't know what you're saying, Natasha, Nasha, but
557
00:27:54.880 --> 00:27:58.079
also wanted to get rid of Mark ruffles character as well,
558
00:27:58.200 --> 00:28:00.799
because he's the one who let this program happen.
559
00:28:01.079 --> 00:28:05.400
Yeah, and I feel like that ties into something I
560
00:28:05.480 --> 00:28:08.920
liked a lot. Was that the sort of center of
561
00:28:08.960 --> 00:28:11.799
it when you see him dying over and over. Of
562
00:28:11.799 --> 00:28:14.039
course it's played it as a joke, but then later
563
00:28:14.079 --> 00:28:16.480
we see that recontextualized again where he's like, but she
564
00:28:16.640 --> 00:28:17.359
was always there, he.
565
00:28:17.400 --> 00:28:18.200
Was like throughout everything.
566
00:28:18.240 --> 00:28:21.119
And then I love the scene where they're killing him
567
00:28:21.160 --> 00:28:23.319
with like a virus inside of a tube, but then
568
00:28:23.359 --> 00:28:26.519
she goes in there to be with him, and there's
569
00:28:26.559 --> 00:28:29.119
a kind of like there's a rhythm to that that
570
00:28:29.160 --> 00:28:33.400
I really liked. But I think that their relationship and
571
00:28:33.440 --> 00:28:36.039
their connection with each other so strong in this and
572
00:28:36.079 --> 00:28:38.720
it's definitely one of like the leading things that makes it.
573
00:28:39.279 --> 00:28:42.079
I feel like, obviously, nothing like tragic happens in this movie.
574
00:28:42.079 --> 00:28:42.400
Really.
575
00:28:42.440 --> 00:28:44.359
I mean, Mark Ruffalo blows up, but you're kind of
576
00:28:44.440 --> 00:28:46.799
like he deserves it. Honestly, what I thought was going
577
00:28:46.799 --> 00:28:48.440
to happen with that is I thought that the animals
578
00:28:48.440 --> 00:28:50.480
were going to kill him in like a really violent way.
579
00:28:50.559 --> 00:28:53.119
But that's I guess that's not the thing that we're like, Hey,
580
00:28:53.160 --> 00:28:54.359
the animals are really nice.
581
00:28:54.880 --> 00:28:56.880
They were, and did you feel like they made them
582
00:28:56.920 --> 00:28:58.960
so nice that whenever she was like cutting the tail
583
00:28:59.000 --> 00:29:01.920
in that way, you're like this terrible roast like and
584
00:29:01.960 --> 00:29:05.759
then she like that dream that he had too. Oh
585
00:29:05.920 --> 00:29:08.279
that scared me too. I was like what because I
586
00:29:08.279 --> 00:29:09.799
thought it was legit. I was like, how much more
587
00:29:09.839 --> 00:29:11.640
of this movie is there? And then I thought it
588
00:29:11.680 --> 00:29:13.519
was going to like start over and she's like, well,
589
00:29:13.559 --> 00:29:15.200
this is what the people really want to know. It
590
00:29:15.279 --> 00:29:16.720
isn't who's the people?
591
00:29:16.920 --> 00:29:17.000
Like?
592
00:29:17.039 --> 00:29:19.039
I love Mark Ruffalo and he's great in this, but
593
00:29:19.160 --> 00:29:25.279
that's not Mark Ruffle the actor. Yeah, that's what some politicians.
594
00:29:25.519 --> 00:29:29.119
Politicians stand in for her real life. And Tony Kolett's
595
00:29:29.160 --> 00:29:31.880
character is kind of playing the like rich lady that
596
00:29:31.920 --> 00:29:34.839
has nothing to do but like other than be obsessed with.
597
00:29:35.200 --> 00:29:37.240
Like she seems so caring at first, but I think
598
00:29:37.240 --> 00:29:39.920
the moment for me, yeah, when you kind of know
599
00:29:39.960 --> 00:29:42.640
how she really is is whenever she pulls that rug
600
00:29:43.119 --> 00:29:47.200
from me whatever before Mark Ruffalo's characters was about to
601
00:29:47.200 --> 00:29:49.799
shoot him because he wasn't healing from that injection.
602
00:29:50.079 --> 00:29:54.519
No, she was like, you're gonna shoot him takes a
603
00:29:54.559 --> 00:29:57.640
carpet away. Yeah, that's really funny.
604
00:29:57.759 --> 00:29:58.319
That's what I'm saying.
605
00:29:58.359 --> 00:30:00.000
It's a moments like that where it's like something seriou
606
00:30:00.119 --> 00:30:02.599
about it happened, but it's so it comes off so funny.
607
00:30:02.640 --> 00:30:05.799
It's just that like dark humor sensibility where like you're
608
00:30:05.839 --> 00:30:08.079
kind of laughing, You're like, this situation is like fucked up,
609
00:30:08.200 --> 00:30:11.640
but like let's get into more before we like any
610
00:30:11.680 --> 00:30:15.279
negatives or anything like that. The technical aspects of this movie.
611
00:30:15.319 --> 00:30:17.960
This movie was made for like one hundred and twenty
612
00:30:17.960 --> 00:30:20.759
five million dollar budget. Oh and it was shot by
613
00:30:20.759 --> 00:30:25.680
the cinematographer who shot seven And yeah, that's oppressive. So
614
00:30:26.319 --> 00:30:29.240
something that I caught kind of right off the bat
615
00:30:29.559 --> 00:30:32.200
is this movie's beautiful. Of course, it is, even without
616
00:30:32.200 --> 00:30:37.240
the the CG whatever stuff. The shot where he's initially
617
00:30:37.279 --> 00:30:39.200
in that like sign up room and you see the
618
00:30:39.240 --> 00:30:42.400
spiraling staircase and he's just sort of like there and
619
00:30:42.440 --> 00:30:44.440
you can sort of see that like it's shot in
620
00:30:44.480 --> 00:30:47.119
a way where everything is kind of like anchoring over him.
621
00:30:47.359 --> 00:30:49.359
That was beautiful. Yeah, But did any of like the
622
00:30:49.400 --> 00:30:51.759
technical stuff catch your eye in this.
623
00:30:52.160 --> 00:30:54.759
I think it's just the editing aspect too. Yeah, I
624
00:30:54.799 --> 00:30:56.880
think I really enjoyed that, and like the way they
625
00:30:56.880 --> 00:31:00.759
would showcase that, like Mickey seven to make it eighteen
626
00:31:00.759 --> 00:31:05.960
and like one space as well, and utilizing like another
627
00:31:06.079 --> 00:31:09.599
character in that scene and just basically spacing them out
628
00:31:09.599 --> 00:31:12.039
and like trying to like showcase to like these two
629
00:31:12.599 --> 00:31:14.559
these two different characters are in one.
630
00:31:14.359 --> 00:31:16.119
Scene, but they're the same person.
631
00:31:16.400 --> 00:31:20.480
Yeah, which honestly I always find that so fascinating to
632
00:31:20.680 --> 00:31:24.319
like how it works around there, like the camera tricks
633
00:31:24.359 --> 00:31:26.319
and like the yeah around it, you start to.
634
00:31:26.359 --> 00:31:30.200
Kind of like lose the sense that that's too like
635
00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:32.599
it's one person, you know, but you feel.
636
00:31:32.359 --> 00:31:37.519
Like believing parent trappers, yeah, yeah, or Zach.
637
00:31:37.359 --> 00:31:40.640
And Cody, but they're obviously different.
638
00:31:41.119 --> 00:31:44.400
They're always yes they're twins, but they're definitely different heads.
639
00:31:44.759 --> 00:31:46.680
They're like one was taller than the other, one was
640
00:31:46.680 --> 00:31:53.559
into Yeah, one was skinnier, a little bigger. Yes, But honestly,
641
00:31:54.400 --> 00:31:58.400
let's see, do you have any more positives? Those are
642
00:31:58.400 --> 00:31:59.319
all the ones I could think of.
643
00:32:00.319 --> 00:32:03.680
Okay, so let's move on to our negatives. If you
644
00:32:03.720 --> 00:32:06.200
have any I hate this movie all right, But if
645
00:32:06.200 --> 00:32:08.200
you're just like we just talked positively for half an hour.
646
00:32:08.279 --> 00:32:09.720
You're like, all right, here's my other problems.
647
00:32:09.759 --> 00:32:12.039
It's like an hour long, here's an hour longer. Too
648
00:32:12.079 --> 00:32:12.839
many mickeys.
649
00:32:13.359 --> 00:32:17.839
My only negative was probably just the beginning. I would say, yeah,
650
00:32:17.880 --> 00:32:21.759
and but even then it just wasn't It's not much
651
00:32:21.759 --> 00:32:24.079
of a negative, but I think it just took a
652
00:32:24.119 --> 00:32:27.119
minute for it to like actually start where the movie
653
00:32:27.279 --> 00:32:28.559
was like essentially going to start.
654
00:32:28.799 --> 00:32:29.640
Yeah.
655
00:32:29.799 --> 00:32:32.119
See, I kind of had a similar thing, but I
656
00:32:32.119 --> 00:32:34.759
wouldn't call it a critique. I was just more so
657
00:32:34.960 --> 00:32:38.160
kind of like I seen that trailer a lot. Ye,
658
00:32:38.319 --> 00:32:40.720
so I was kind of like, you know what the
659
00:32:40.720 --> 00:32:44.079
premise is, of course you do, and so you're sort
660
00:32:44.119 --> 00:32:46.359
of like wondering, waiting when does the.
661
00:32:46.359 --> 00:32:48.039
Other Robert Pattinson show up?
662
00:32:48.480 --> 00:32:50.960
But then you're kind of also along for that ride,
663
00:32:51.079 --> 00:32:53.720
just because I thought that the narration was so investing,
664
00:32:54.119 --> 00:32:57.599
and I really liked his performance and the like just
665
00:32:57.640 --> 00:33:00.799
the rhythm of his voice. I feel like Scorsese in
666
00:33:00.839 --> 00:33:04.599
particular can also get something similar done when it comes
667
00:33:04.680 --> 00:33:07.920
to a lot of editing back and forth, a lot
668
00:33:07.960 --> 00:33:10.279
of narration at.
669
00:33:10.160 --> 00:33:11.240
The beginning of a movie.
670
00:33:11.480 --> 00:33:15.480
Yeah, it's hard to pull off, just because exposition can
671
00:33:15.519 --> 00:33:18.039
feel so like, oh my god, I get like, okay.
672
00:33:17.839 --> 00:33:20.799
Especially if like whenever you would showcase like a scene
673
00:33:20.839 --> 00:33:24.039
that happened in the past. Yeah, and those characters in
674
00:33:24.079 --> 00:33:27.519
that scene aren't really talking, they're just moving around. Yeah,
675
00:33:27.559 --> 00:33:29.839
and they're just acting based off like what the narration
676
00:33:30.000 --> 00:33:32.119
is going off of two. It kind of just feels
677
00:33:32.279 --> 00:33:35.039
very I don't know, lazy, but my eyes too.
678
00:33:35.400 --> 00:33:37.279
That's why I like, but I never felt that way
679
00:33:37.319 --> 00:33:39.960
with this, you know, just because you're like, this is
680
00:33:40.000 --> 00:33:42.559
the movie, like this isn't necessarily I didn't feel like
681
00:33:42.880 --> 00:33:45.599
there were any cop outs. I didn't feel like they
682
00:33:45.599 --> 00:33:49.240
were kind of compromising on any sort of storytelling, especially
683
00:33:49.279 --> 00:33:51.960
when it comes down to once you start getting in
684
00:33:51.960 --> 00:33:53.359
to the more joky aspect.
685
00:33:53.079 --> 00:33:57.000
Of where's the prime scientist of the main guy? Yeah,
686
00:33:57.880 --> 00:34:02.079
I thought I was like, it's kind of seem like Matrix. Yeah.
687
00:34:02.319 --> 00:34:03.960
No, all that stuff was like really cool. And then
688
00:34:04.039 --> 00:34:07.240
that I think speaks volumes about the world building here
689
00:34:07.279 --> 00:34:09.840
as well. Like once it was done, I thought about
690
00:34:09.840 --> 00:34:12.519
this movie a fair amount. I saw it today it's Tuesday,
691
00:34:12.719 --> 00:34:14.639
and I saw it on Sunday. I've like kind of
692
00:34:14.639 --> 00:34:17.960
thought about it NonStop. Yeah, and that it felt real.
693
00:34:18.039 --> 00:34:22.480
It felt like a real thing, and of course in
694
00:34:22.519 --> 00:34:24.519
a scary way. It kind of echoes the sense that
695
00:34:24.559 --> 00:34:25.960
you do feel like some of this stuff is a
696
00:34:25.960 --> 00:34:27.400
possibility in the future.
697
00:34:28.199 --> 00:34:31.159
But is that they're already doing cloning but not to
698
00:34:31.199 --> 00:34:33.760
that extent, No, just like with dogs with animals.
699
00:34:33.800 --> 00:34:37.079
Yeah, yeah, I guess I'd also ask one more question
700
00:34:37.480 --> 00:34:40.400
of this is just me like asking you this because
701
00:34:40.440 --> 00:34:42.199
it's kind of a question posed by this. Do you
702
00:34:42.239 --> 00:34:46.840
feel like there's a sense of is there any kind
703
00:34:46.920 --> 00:34:52.079
of like danger to just if you just kept repeating
704
00:34:52.280 --> 00:34:55.119
like your your life? Oh, do you feel like cloning
705
00:34:55.159 --> 00:34:56.039
on myself?
706
00:34:56.360 --> 00:34:56.559
Yeah?
707
00:34:56.639 --> 00:34:59.000
Do you think like it loses your sense of self
708
00:34:59.079 --> 00:35:00.159
over the course of time.
709
00:35:00.400 --> 00:35:03.679
I think you would start taking less risk, Yeah, because
710
00:35:04.039 --> 00:35:06.519
you're like, well, I am going to come back again,
711
00:35:06.639 --> 00:35:07.920
so why take a risk now?
712
00:35:07.960 --> 00:35:10.199
And that's why I feel like Mickey eighteen was sort
713
00:35:10.199 --> 00:35:12.400
of like kind of flat in terms of some of
714
00:35:12.440 --> 00:35:16.039
his reactions. He also gets super angry, But I feel
715
00:35:16.039 --> 00:35:17.800
like it's just because you start to harbor a kind
716
00:35:17.800 --> 00:35:20.320
of weight with you where you're like, if my whole,
717
00:35:20.360 --> 00:35:23.920
like you know, goal is just to die, then.
718
00:35:24.000 --> 00:35:31.000
Yeah, I can see like the positives of multiplication based
719
00:35:31.039 --> 00:35:34.079
on the fact of like bringing certain animals back from extinction.
720
00:35:34.639 --> 00:35:37.599
I can see that, but then there's also some animals. Now,
721
00:35:37.960 --> 00:35:39.719
there's also some animals.
722
00:35:39.599 --> 00:35:43.800
That you know would not thrive in like society that
723
00:35:43.840 --> 00:35:44.800
we have now too.
724
00:35:44.960 --> 00:35:47.000
So but like, let's be real, did you see the
725
00:35:47.039 --> 00:35:49.239
thing about like the wooly mammons I was trying being
726
00:35:49.280 --> 00:35:52.880
brought back. It's like we are quite literally trying, like
727
00:35:52.920 --> 00:35:54.639
we are going the footsteps of what this movie is
728
00:35:54.679 --> 00:35:57.920
talking about. And I can't help it. I do feel
729
00:35:58.199 --> 00:36:01.320
and I understand that if the company's got a hold
730
00:36:01.320 --> 00:36:05.599
of the idea of the whole process, the expendable process,
731
00:36:05.599 --> 00:36:06.360
they would use it.
732
00:36:06.440 --> 00:36:09.000
Oh yeah, no doubt or like that.
733
00:36:09.320 --> 00:36:12.679
Uh it's like for Futurama or like some other future
734
00:36:12.880 --> 00:36:15.199
movies where it's like they keep your brain in a
735
00:36:15.320 --> 00:36:18.119
jar and that way you can like somehow like later
736
00:36:18.159 --> 00:36:20.360
in the future, like bring yourself back.
737
00:36:20.519 --> 00:36:22.559
I'm I don't get me wrong, I'm coming for Walt
738
00:36:22.599 --> 00:36:29.159
Disney's head. But yeah, it's in that show too. I
739
00:36:29.199 --> 00:36:30.960
think a lot of people said that the reason why
740
00:36:31.000 --> 00:36:33.159
this is a stupid as conspiracy, but the reason why
741
00:36:33.159 --> 00:36:33.960
Walt Disney.
742
00:36:33.760 --> 00:36:34.840
I love a good conspiracy.
743
00:36:34.960 --> 00:36:37.760
Walt Disney made the Walt Disney made the movie Frozen.
744
00:36:38.039 --> 00:36:41.000
That's how you know that that's stupid bullshit is that
745
00:36:41.079 --> 00:36:44.199
they're like or Disney made Frozen. So if you looked
746
00:36:44.280 --> 00:36:47.199
up Disney Frozen, that a frozen head wouldn't come up,
747
00:36:48.039 --> 00:36:49.760
and it said that the movie Frozen would come up.
748
00:36:50.079 --> 00:36:54.639
Smart They're good, no, and that's what they made the
749
00:36:54.679 --> 00:36:58.000
second Frozen movie. Because now we know not Disney, not
750
00:36:58.079 --> 00:36:59.840
Disney Frozen, Disney Frozen too.
751
00:37:00.000 --> 00:37:01.960
I'm gonna call it Frozen head to head in the
752
00:37:02.000 --> 00:37:02.519
third one.
753
00:37:03.199 --> 00:37:08.800
Can I get Disney Frozen head to head? No?
754
00:37:09.719 --> 00:37:12.320
But no, I guess I don't necessarily have any negatives
755
00:37:12.360 --> 00:37:13.960
with this outside of the fact that I guess I
756
00:37:14.000 --> 00:37:17.639
was just sort of like, but honestly, I've just been
757
00:37:17.679 --> 00:37:20.280
sort of debating my score for like two days now,
758
00:37:20.440 --> 00:37:21.360
just because I was kind of.
759
00:37:21.280 --> 00:37:23.519
Like, I just saw this movie today. Guys, Yeah, I
760
00:37:23.559 --> 00:37:26.519
kind of want to I want to do it. Oh wait,
761
00:37:26.519 --> 00:37:27.079
I'm gonna go first.
762
00:37:27.199 --> 00:37:30.159
Yeah, let me ask you for what's your score? Yeah,
763
00:37:31.280 --> 00:37:34.840
So that was my initial reaction. I am going to
764
00:37:34.880 --> 00:37:37.239
watch it again just because this is a movie I
765
00:37:37.239 --> 00:37:41.320
do want to watch again. It's one of the remember
766
00:37:41.320 --> 00:37:42.920
our Kinds of Kindness review. I was like four and
767
00:37:42.960 --> 00:37:44.719
a half, but I would give this a five out
768
00:37:44.719 --> 00:37:47.320
of five if I watch it again. I think I'm
769
00:37:47.360 --> 00:37:49.519
gonna do the same thing. I think I'm going to
770
00:37:50.800 --> 00:37:53.639
put four and a half out of five, but I
771
00:37:53.679 --> 00:37:55.119
want to give this a five out of five.
772
00:37:55.159 --> 00:37:55.920
Really bad way.
773
00:37:56.639 --> 00:37:59.079
If we somehow come back to this at the end
774
00:37:59.119 --> 00:38:00.880
of the year and it's on like it's it's March,
775
00:38:00.880 --> 00:38:03.920
you know it's early, but I will clarify after I've
776
00:38:03.960 --> 00:38:06.119
seen it again if that changes at all.
777
00:38:06.159 --> 00:38:10.079
Mickey, seventeen will be the next Doune too. It is March.
778
00:38:10.159 --> 00:38:12.199
Yeah, they came out less March, but yeah, we thought
779
00:38:12.239 --> 00:38:16.639
this was amazing. I'm gonna just address really quick likens
780
00:38:16.840 --> 00:38:19.559
people some of the negatives, people that it was too slow,
781
00:38:19.599 --> 00:38:21.920
a little too long, But I guess if you don't
782
00:38:21.960 --> 00:38:23.079
find the world.
783
00:38:22.880 --> 00:38:24.960
Building, I don't know, that's what That's what made the
784
00:38:25.000 --> 00:38:27.559
movie so interesting to me too. It was just the fact,
785
00:38:27.719 --> 00:38:30.639
like just the characters and like the world, the world
786
00:38:30.719 --> 00:38:33.159
itself was just more than enough interesting and.
787
00:38:33.119 --> 00:38:36.800
You're so interested, like even just looking at the backgrounds
788
00:38:36.840 --> 00:38:40.679
alone when they're walking through the snowstorm or whatever it is.
789
00:38:40.719 --> 00:38:43.880
It's so visually dynamic and interesting that you, like, I
790
00:38:43.960 --> 00:38:45.639
want it to be in that world. This is a
791
00:38:45.760 --> 00:38:48.039
very long movie. I wouldn't cut any of.
792
00:38:47.960 --> 00:38:49.880
Those creatures look like mammoths.
793
00:38:50.079 --> 00:38:55.880
They look like a competition, Yeah, of that, and then
794
00:38:56.000 --> 00:38:58.639
like roly Polis or something like that. Yeah, they kind
795
00:38:58.639 --> 00:39:01.159
of look like have like a bug hybrid looking thing.
796
00:39:01.800 --> 00:39:07.199
They're both adorable and kind of ugly. But I'm sorry,
797
00:39:09.400 --> 00:39:12.840
and I just that they thought it was about too
798
00:39:12.920 --> 00:39:14.719
much or about nothing at all, because it was about
799
00:39:14.719 --> 00:39:16.920
a bunch of stuff, which it's kind of asked the
800
00:39:17.000 --> 00:39:18.880
question of, I mean, is it okay to make a
801
00:39:18.920 --> 00:39:20.280
movie about more than one thing?
802
00:39:20.519 --> 00:39:22.719
I feel like it is. What do you mean the
803
00:39:22.760 --> 00:39:23.239
same theme?
804
00:39:23.519 --> 00:39:26.079
Like sometimes I feel like a lot of the movies
805
00:39:26.119 --> 00:39:29.840
we've seen lately have one singular theme and that's it.
806
00:39:29.920 --> 00:39:32.199
Like I'm just saying this, I do love this movie.
807
00:39:32.199 --> 00:39:37.719
Campaign Oh, clearly was about one thing, and then I
808
00:39:37.719 --> 00:39:39.840
feel like it's okay to navigate being.
809
00:39:39.639 --> 00:39:40.719
About a bunch of stuff. Oh.
810
00:39:40.800 --> 00:39:42.719
Absolutely, you just got to make sure you're not, you know,
811
00:39:42.760 --> 00:39:46.960
a mess. Some people also thought that it was totally messy,
812
00:39:47.039 --> 00:39:50.519
which I it's a high wire act for sure.
813
00:39:50.440 --> 00:39:52.440
I think because they didn't know whether to laugh or not.
814
00:39:53.760 --> 00:39:56.760
I think it's because we aren't really challenged by comedy
815
00:39:56.800 --> 00:40:00.400
that much anymore, Like dark comedies don't come out that much,
816
00:40:00.599 --> 00:40:00.880
or just.
817
00:40:00.840 --> 00:40:01.760
Comedies in general.
818
00:40:01.880 --> 00:40:04.280
Yeah, it don't really come out to a certain extent.
819
00:40:04.360 --> 00:40:06.840
Like I feel like even during when I saw A Companion,
820
00:40:06.880 --> 00:40:10.400
I got the same sort of similar vibe where I
821
00:40:10.400 --> 00:40:12.119
feel like some people were kind of scared to laugh
822
00:40:12.159 --> 00:40:12.480
at like.
823
00:40:12.519 --> 00:40:14.159
Things that were funny in that.
824
00:40:14.840 --> 00:40:18.840
But I think it was that's pretty much everything. Some
825
00:40:18.840 --> 00:40:21.519
people actually kind of didn't respond to Robert Pattinson in
826
00:40:21.519 --> 00:40:24.719
this movie, which I read a couple of times. I
827
00:40:24.719 --> 00:40:27.719
guess just because like I don't know, I don't agree
828
00:40:27.760 --> 00:40:28.280
with that at all.
829
00:40:28.519 --> 00:40:31.159
Yeah, clearly, I don't know. But I mean clearly he's
830
00:40:31.199 --> 00:40:34.800
definitely making or he's tackling like different roles.
831
00:40:35.039 --> 00:40:38.159
I will say though, a movie I love that he's
832
00:40:38.199 --> 00:40:39.960
in and I think he's amazing in is to the
833
00:40:40.000 --> 00:40:42.599
Devil All the Time, and that was a similar thing
834
00:40:42.719 --> 00:40:46.360
that was so long ago, twenty nineteen, I think. But
835
00:40:46.519 --> 00:40:49.320
he's going for broken that like he is over the top,
836
00:40:49.360 --> 00:40:51.079
but he's also supposed to be over the top.
837
00:40:51.119 --> 00:40:51.719
He's kind of.
838
00:40:51.880 --> 00:40:58.760
Playing like a scheming, like just fake personae through a performance.
839
00:40:59.559 --> 00:41:04.679
But that's about everything I believe. And us though we
840
00:41:04.760 --> 00:41:08.960
love this a lot and I read it's not doing
841
00:41:09.000 --> 00:41:10.280
too well, but that's okay.
842
00:41:10.440 --> 00:41:12.880
No, It's one of those things where I never thought
843
00:41:12.880 --> 00:41:15.199
it would have I actually did kind of see it
844
00:41:15.760 --> 00:41:16.920
had that budget though.
845
00:41:17.239 --> 00:41:20.679
I had a huge budget. So even though WB fucks
846
00:41:20.760 --> 00:41:22.719
up a lot, I respect that they made this.
847
00:41:23.480 --> 00:41:24.079
Keep it coming.
848
00:41:24.840 --> 00:41:28.079
Hey, at least they released a movie that was actually good. Yeah,
849
00:41:28.320 --> 00:41:31.000
but it's failing, which sucks, but it's a good movie.
850
00:41:31.079 --> 00:41:33.199
Then they might learn the wrong lesson from that, but
851
00:41:33.559 --> 00:41:37.039
we'll see. He bun junho gets to do whatever he
852
00:41:37.079 --> 00:41:39.679
wants though, really like he has the credibility for it.
853
00:41:39.840 --> 00:41:41.320
If they don't let him make another movie in the
854
00:41:41.400 --> 00:41:43.280
US again, they definitely will in Korea.
855
00:41:43.679 --> 00:41:47.280
Yeah. But overall, yeah, this was incredible. I felt like
856
00:41:47.360 --> 00:41:50.599
I love this a lot and you too. Yeah, what's
857
00:41:50.679 --> 00:41:58.360
up next? Opus? And and one more thing, The Electric State?
858
00:41:58.440 --> 00:42:01.400
The Electric State? I forget the don't are you excited
859
00:42:01.400 --> 00:42:03.639
for these? I didn't find out about Electric two until
860
00:42:03.639 --> 00:42:04.199
two weeks ago.
861
00:42:04.400 --> 00:42:06.159
Oh really, Yeah, I was like, what is this with me?
862
00:42:07.159 --> 00:42:09.840
In It's one of the most expensive Netflix movies ever.
863
00:42:09.960 --> 00:42:12.800
Yeah, I hear it's just one of the highest grossing
864
00:42:12.920 --> 00:42:16.039
or like one of those like high budgeted movies in
865
00:42:16.119 --> 00:42:16.719
a long time.
866
00:42:16.840 --> 00:42:20.519
So we'll see how that one goes. I've heard I've
867
00:42:20.559 --> 00:42:23.840
heard interesting things about all three. Do you say interesting things? Oh,
868
00:42:23.880 --> 00:42:26.599
they're all Wait what about I've heard Nova Kane is great,
869
00:42:27.039 --> 00:42:29.440
I've heard Opus is not too good, and I've heard
870
00:42:29.599 --> 00:42:35.639
that The Electric State is horrible. Yeah, don't don't get
871
00:42:35.719 --> 00:42:38.679
us wrong. We have gone on record about sometimes critically
872
00:42:38.679 --> 00:42:41.719
panned movies that we still like, like he loved Emilia Perez,
873
00:42:41.800 --> 00:42:43.639
So you know it is what it is about.
874
00:42:45.039 --> 00:42:47.639
You were there recording What do you mean.
875

Hello, Welcome back to another episode of Somewhere Between, Somewhere Between,
2
00:00:39.119 --> 00:00:41.520
a film and TV podcast where your hosts I am

00:00:41.640 --> 00:00:44.679

comment and subscribe? Please do it when we're there.
7
00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:57.240
Seventeen, Irwin, I'm gonna skip a few numbers. What is
8
00:00:57.439 --> 00:00:59.079
it that we are reviewing?
9
00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:03.320
Make you so yeah? Not seventeen again, Mickey seventeen.
10
00:01:03.359 --> 00:01:05.359
Also, I'm kind of curious. We're kind of cutting in
11
00:01:05.359 --> 00:01:07.319
a little bit here, but in the title thing, I
12
00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:09.760
was like, help far into this movie?
13
00:01:09.799 --> 00:01:11.079
Does the title drop? You know?
14
00:01:11.159 --> 00:01:13.760
Oh yeah, I like it's one of those IMDb fun
15
00:01:13.799 --> 00:01:15.560
fact trivia. I'm sure you're gonna find out where it's like.
16
00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:17.560
Mickey seventeen, as a matter of fact, doesn't drop the
17
00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:21.560
title until forty five minutes in. But there's another one
18
00:01:21.599 --> 00:01:22.959
that did that. I think it's r R R.
19
00:01:23.599 --> 00:01:25.000
But oh yeah.
20
00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:28.480
What we are going to ask Irwin here before we
21
00:01:28.599 --> 00:01:32.799
fully get into it is Bung June Hoe's previous work.
22
00:01:33.079 --> 00:01:34.359
What do you think of it? What have you seen?
23
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:40.599
I've seen, of course, Parasite. Yeah, I've seen the host
24
00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:44.920
I've seen did he do the who did the the
25
00:01:44.959 --> 00:01:46.760
movie with the train to Busay?
26
00:01:47.959 --> 00:01:50.200
No? A different person? Oh? What was I see done?
27
00:01:50.319 --> 00:01:53.239
Snow Piercer? I have seen that one? Yeah, different train movie.
28
00:01:53.519 --> 00:01:56.319
Have you seen the show? No? Actually with d V Diggs?
29
00:01:56.319 --> 00:01:59.079
Have you seen it? No, I've heard good things about it? Actually,
30
00:01:59.719 --> 00:02:04.079
but what else has he made? I let me ask
31
00:02:04.200 --> 00:02:09.520
you have you seen him for yes? Yeah, you do
32
00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:10.560
that one. Yes.
33
00:02:10.800 --> 00:02:12.800
Let me ask you what you think of these movies?
34
00:02:12.840 --> 00:02:16.039
While I like just to clarify which other ones you've done?
35
00:02:16.599 --> 00:02:20.400
No? No, no, what do you think of his work? While
36
00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:21.080
I look this up?
37
00:02:21.479 --> 00:02:24.919
Yeah, it's amazing, fantastic. I never He's definitely a director
38
00:02:24.960 --> 00:02:29.439
that can tell a great story while having while utilizing
39
00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:32.960
like a variety of characters in his movies.
40
00:02:33.759 --> 00:02:37.680
Oh okay, so Memories of Murder is what it's called?
41
00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:40.360
And Mother, which I've heard amazing things about, have not
42
00:02:40.439 --> 00:02:44.199
seen and Barking Dogs Never Bite.
43
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:48.400
So a few of these his earliest not made that many.
44
00:02:48.599 --> 00:02:52.000
No, not really, but he does have, you know, a
45
00:02:52.120 --> 00:02:54.680
very particular type of staying power. And he's one of
46
00:02:54.680 --> 00:02:58.199
the ones where at this point in time, so clearly
47
00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:00.439
he's one of those directors that gets a blank check
48
00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:02.840
to do whatever he wants. It's so clear based off
49
00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:06.759
of the movie that we just saw. But I also
50
00:03:06.919 --> 00:03:09.039
want to echo your same sentiments Parasite.
51
00:03:09.039 --> 00:03:09.919
I haven't seen that show.
52
00:03:10.520 --> 00:03:12.719
No, not that's good too. We'll talk about Daryville when
53
00:03:12.759 --> 00:03:15.479
we get to when we get there. But Parasite is,
54
00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:18.080
of course, naturally one of the best movies ever made.
55
00:03:18.120 --> 00:03:20.199
It's one of those ones that like exploded. It's the
56
00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:23.240
reason why I think Mickey seventeen exists in the first place,
57
00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:26.000
is because you watch something like that, of course, naturally
58
00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:28.599
everyone's going to be like, well, what is someone that
59
00:03:28.639 --> 00:03:30.400
made something like this going to do next?
60
00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:31.719
Oakja.
61
00:03:32.680 --> 00:03:34.960
First time I saw it, I liked it, I appreciated it.
62
00:03:34.960 --> 00:03:37.479
I didn't think I quite got on its full wavelength.
63
00:03:37.520 --> 00:03:39.840
But then I saw it again just a couple of
64
00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:41.759
years ago, and that's one of the most prime examples
65
00:03:41.800 --> 00:03:44.360
I can think of of I think this movie is incredible,
66
00:03:44.360 --> 00:03:46.639
and I'm glad that I saw it again because my I.
67
00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:48.680
Think I only saw it once, but I remember loving it.
68
00:03:48.800 --> 00:03:51.840
Yeah, it's very We're gonna bring oak Ja up again
69
00:03:51.879 --> 00:03:54.599
because that's the one that's most reminiscent here. Snow Piercer,
70
00:03:54.639 --> 00:03:56.560
I think is an amazing movie, not what you think
71
00:03:56.599 --> 00:03:59.719
it's going to be. But what do all of these
72
00:03:59.759 --> 00:04:04.840
movies have in common for me is their themes and
73
00:04:04.919 --> 00:04:09.120
allegories are maybe about as unsubtle as it gets. I
74
00:04:09.159 --> 00:04:13.280
think that when it comes to his American films, they're funnier,
75
00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:19.240
and they also where their themes on their sleeve, basically
76
00:04:19.439 --> 00:04:24.800
like leading into all of that and prior knowledge as well.
77
00:04:25.879 --> 00:04:28.720
With this movie, did you love it? Did you hate it?
78
00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:32.160
Or are you somewhere between? I loved it? Yeah, yeah
79
00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:32.480
I did.
80
00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:35.519
I Okay, So even while watching it, I've seen some
81
00:04:35.560 --> 00:04:36.800
of the responses to this movie.
82
00:04:36.839 --> 00:04:38.639
I've seen that what are they saying?
83
00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:41.000
So it's at like seventy eight or seventy nine percent
84
00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:42.800
around Tomatoes. But some of the people that have hated
85
00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:45.439
this movie hate this movie? Why would they hate They
86
00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:48.480
think it's too over the top. They think that it
87
00:04:48.560 --> 00:04:52.199
is super unsubtle, which I mean, that's a critique that
88
00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:56.839
I understand. But they also think that it's messy, unfocused.
89
00:04:57.720 --> 00:05:01.680
And while I understand were all of that's coming from,
90
00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:04.000
I'm not that I also love this movie quite a bit.
91
00:05:04.079 --> 00:05:06.319
I like, see, Okay, I guess when we talk about it,
92
00:05:06.319 --> 00:05:07.160
we'll talk about.
93
00:05:06.920 --> 00:05:09.800
It like if there were anything I would say, I
94
00:05:09.839 --> 00:05:12.240
think that this movie actually has a whole lot to say,
95
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:14.360
because of course it does, but it makes like six
96
00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:18.160
different themes relevant at once. I feel like it's a
97
00:05:18.160 --> 00:05:21.040
really tricky balance, and I respect that a movie with
98
00:05:21.079 --> 00:05:25.120
this budget is like this. There's like it's sort of
99
00:05:25.160 --> 00:05:29.560
an adventury comedy thing, but it's also really dark and
100
00:05:29.680 --> 00:05:34.600
violent and off putting and simultaneous makes you question.
101
00:05:34.360 --> 00:05:36.040
A lot of things, and like the choices and like
102
00:05:36.040 --> 00:05:40.040
the ethical principles of like of what the themes are
103
00:05:40.079 --> 00:05:40.959
going on in the movie.
104
00:05:41.120 --> 00:05:43.040
Yeah, before we get into all of that, because that's
105
00:05:43.079 --> 00:05:45.720
going to be like everything we review has full spoilers.
106
00:05:46.639 --> 00:05:48.600
What did you love about this? What I loved about
107
00:05:48.600 --> 00:05:50.240
this was like the characters in the movie.
108
00:05:50.480 --> 00:05:53.199
Yeah, especially of course was like Robert Patterson as like
109
00:05:53.319 --> 00:05:58.399
the variations of Mickey's and but also the world building.
110
00:05:58.639 --> 00:05:59.759
Yeah, I don't know.
111
00:05:59.800 --> 00:06:02.560
I I think whenever it would focus back and forth
112
00:06:02.600 --> 00:06:07.720
with the editing style of like showcasing like different story
113
00:06:07.759 --> 00:06:10.600
points and how it's gonna be utilized later.
114
00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:12.439
On in the movie, right, and one of.
115
00:06:12.399 --> 00:06:16.360
Them being like the okay, like, how are we going
116
00:06:16.439 --> 00:06:21.480
to do with the fact of possibility of being multiples?
117
00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:24.839
Right? Yeah? And they use of an example of a
118
00:06:24.879 --> 00:06:28.279
scientist who was a multiple and was also a murderer
119
00:06:28.279 --> 00:06:29.920
on the loose, which I love.
120
00:06:30.120 --> 00:06:31.879
That was like yeah, and they casually just bring it
121
00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:35.720
in saying like, well, all these philosophers and scientists and
122
00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:38.319
all these debates are having, like whether or not like
123
00:06:38.519 --> 00:06:41.040
or do you consider these people as just like each
124
00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:45.000
individual or is just one person in religious beliefs, as
125
00:06:45.040 --> 00:06:47.279
well as like one body is one soul.
126
00:06:47.959 --> 00:06:50.319
So I like bringing up all those ideas.
127
00:06:49.920 --> 00:06:53.920
Definitely helps a lot with like the emotional toll when
128
00:06:53.920 --> 00:06:57.639
you get to see Mickey seventeen and Mickey eighteen as well.
129
00:06:57.480 --> 00:06:59.680
Because it's one of those natural questions that you're going
130
00:06:59.720 --> 00:07:03.600
to ask, ask where eighteen is such a different being
131
00:07:03.839 --> 00:07:06.639
yes than seventeen. But I feel like the point that
132
00:07:06.680 --> 00:07:10.360
this movie is making is that you are kind of
133
00:07:10.399 --> 00:07:14.839
being beaten down by your job, by the system, by
134
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:18.839
anything having to do with working for the higher whatever
135
00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:23.160
it is, that you start to kind of lose yourself
136
00:07:23.240 --> 00:07:26.879
in that. In that also, this like snow Piercer like
137
00:07:26.879 --> 00:07:30.000
snow Piercer. Snow Piercer is also quite literally about climbing
138
00:07:30.040 --> 00:07:32.079
your way to the top like that, and it is
139
00:07:32.120 --> 00:07:35.759
a literal. He shows it visually like there's no way
140
00:07:35.800 --> 00:07:37.120
to miss it here.
141
00:07:38.240 --> 00:07:38.800
Same thing.
142
00:07:38.879 --> 00:07:41.279
It's basically this movie, This entire movie is the equivalent
143
00:07:41.319 --> 00:07:43.439
to that SpongeBob meme where it's the guy It's like,
144
00:07:43.800 --> 00:07:45.360
look at you in your first day of work.
145
00:07:45.399 --> 00:07:47.839
You were so happy.
146
00:07:48.319 --> 00:07:50.680
But this would be like Mickey seventeen or Mickey one,
147
00:07:50.879 --> 00:07:52.040
and then Mickey eighteen.
148
00:07:52.120 --> 00:07:54.279
I always love I love the question they kept asking
149
00:07:54.319 --> 00:07:56.920
too towards Mickey. It's like, now, what does dying feel like?
150
00:07:57.319 --> 00:08:00.720
Over and over again? And it kind of and the
151
00:08:00.759 --> 00:08:04.240
answer that Mickey always gives seems so like a response
152
00:08:04.279 --> 00:08:07.480
you would give. How are you enjoying your work? You know,
153
00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:10.920
it's whatever it happens at my job.
154
00:08:11.040 --> 00:08:14.639
This is such a common older man response is.
155
00:08:15.000 --> 00:08:18.079
Live in the dream. That's it, you go. I hate that.
156
00:08:18.360 --> 00:08:21.279
Just recently, I got another day in paradise and then
157
00:08:21.319 --> 00:08:22.040
they call me big D.
158
00:08:22.279 --> 00:08:32.519
But I don't know what they called the D. I
159
00:08:32.519 --> 00:08:32.840
don't know.
160
00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:37.559
I'm not the wrizzler. I don't have a the in
161
00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:42.440
front of my nickname, why not? But no, I fully
162
00:08:43.519 --> 00:08:46.879
I love that. By the way, the whole question of
163
00:08:47.440 --> 00:08:49.279
what does it feel like to die? It's repeated enough
164
00:08:49.320 --> 00:08:52.519
times and he's like, I cannot do an impression of
165
00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:53.879
that voice. Whatever voice that is.
166
00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:57.519
He does a great job of like just different voices. Yeah.
167
00:08:57.759 --> 00:09:01.639
I didn't realize how often his voices are different on
168
00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:04.000
every like in all the movies that I've seen him in.
169
00:09:04.320 --> 00:09:07.360
If you do, like if you watch an interview with him,
170
00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:11.120
I think his closest accent in real life is that
171
00:09:11.279 --> 00:09:13.919
to like Goblet of Fire. Yes, but he hasn't done
172
00:09:14.000 --> 00:09:16.720
it since that, and then you kind of like forget,
173
00:09:17.320 --> 00:09:20.320
like in good Time, I like, I'm so American. He's
174
00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:23.399
like doing this New York like, oh from the great
175
00:09:23.759 --> 00:09:28.440
type accent here. It sounds very much worker Steve Buscemi,
176
00:09:28.440 --> 00:09:30.080
because he said he was inspired by Fargo.
177
00:09:30.759 --> 00:09:33.039
Oh this one. Yeah, Oh I could see that, but
178
00:09:33.080 --> 00:09:35.799
he said that, yeah, especially with the snow and everything.
179
00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:38.399
Yeah, he said he kind of got that. He didn't
180
00:09:38.399 --> 00:09:40.159
even realize he was doing that until after the fact,
181
00:09:40.200 --> 00:09:41.639
and he was like, then I watched Fargo again. He
182
00:09:41.720 --> 00:09:47.120
was like, oh, my accent is this? But I loved
183
00:09:47.360 --> 00:09:50.879
that repeated question over and over in this movie. If
184
00:09:50.919 --> 00:09:53.399
you feel like it got repetitive at all, which I didn't,
185
00:09:53.480 --> 00:09:57.480
I get it because it's making sure that you understand.
186
00:09:56.879 --> 00:09:59.200
Like how it was feeling, yeah, what it's about.
187
00:09:59.360 --> 00:10:03.559
Yeah, And and it's like constant barrage of this is work,
188
00:10:03.639 --> 00:10:06.559
like this is the work. And even at the beginning,
189
00:10:06.720 --> 00:10:11.080
like something that I also loved, which you brought up already,
190
00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:15.039
there's good narration is amazing. Yes, And I feel like
191
00:10:15.120 --> 00:10:17.399
the whole back and forth the setup is a little
192
00:10:17.440 --> 00:10:20.840
bit long, the expository part of it, the exposition, yes,
193
00:10:21.080 --> 00:10:24.639
but I thought that that was okay, just because this
194
00:10:24.759 --> 00:10:27.679
movie in terms of what it's doing, it definitely has
195
00:10:27.720 --> 00:10:30.000
a kind of first half and a second half, I feel,
196
00:10:30.320 --> 00:10:33.679
And the second half is once Mickey eighteen is introduced,
197
00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:34.919
it becomes.
198
00:10:34.759 --> 00:10:37.879
And evolves into a different type of thing. Good cup
199
00:10:37.919 --> 00:10:38.399
back Cup.
200
00:10:38.559 --> 00:10:40.360
Yeah, even though they kind of end up having a
201
00:10:40.399 --> 00:10:43.240
sort of weird like friendship in a way with each other.
202
00:10:43.919 --> 00:10:47.679
But alongside all of that, I loved the whole, like
203
00:10:47.720 --> 00:10:50.480
the joke about like did you read the contract that
204
00:10:50.519 --> 00:10:51.039
you agreed to?
205
00:10:51.039 --> 00:10:53.159
It's like I should have read the paperwork.
206
00:10:53.799 --> 00:10:57.600
And this movie has some sort of weird tone balance
207
00:10:57.679 --> 00:11:00.480
for sure. Yes, because they're on the run from like
208
00:11:00.559 --> 00:11:02.919
a there's a lot going on in this movie, by
209
00:11:02.960 --> 00:11:04.799
the way, but they're even on the run from some
210
00:11:04.840 --> 00:11:07.320
sort of loan shark, and they because they own their
211
00:11:07.360 --> 00:11:08.200
own money for like a.
212
00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:12.440
Macaroon shop, macaroons are better than burgers. And you're like,
213
00:11:12.519 --> 00:11:15.559
what and the ship said the macaroon is not a sin?
214
00:11:15.639 --> 00:11:17.559
I think, yeah, yeah, it's exactly what I said. You're like,
215
00:11:17.600 --> 00:11:18.919
what is it? Okay?
216
00:11:19.320 --> 00:11:20.840
Honestly, I don't know if it's a hot take. I
217
00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:23.240
don't agree with that, but I never thought not the
218
00:11:23.240 --> 00:11:27.240
same part, but macaroons are You're going to hell?
219
00:11:27.679 --> 00:11:30.960
No? I mean more so like I love macaroons, I don't.
220
00:11:31.399 --> 00:11:32.200
I don't think they're.
221
00:11:32.000 --> 00:11:34.600
Better than burgers though, but who's gonna who's about to
222
00:11:34.639 --> 00:11:35.600
make that comparison?
223
00:11:35.960 --> 00:11:38.240
That's a weird person. But what else did you love
224
00:11:38.279 --> 00:11:40.039
about this? I love?
225
00:11:40.840 --> 00:11:42.879
What I love about this movie is also the characters
226
00:11:42.919 --> 00:11:49.320
in it, so introducing like Mark Ruffalo and Tony Yeah
227
00:11:49.360 --> 00:11:55.399
and yeah yeah, just like every character just like felt
228
00:11:55.440 --> 00:11:58.000
like their individual person and they always have like these
229
00:11:58.320 --> 00:12:00.399
these unique characteristics about them.
230
00:12:00.200 --> 00:12:03.519
That set them apart from everybody else. And when they
231
00:12:03.519 --> 00:12:07.799
all have a conversation with one another, it definitely feels
232
00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:10.519
like a believable situation that they're all in. Yeah, and
233
00:12:10.559 --> 00:12:14.440
that's what I really like about his like movies as a.
234
00:12:14.360 --> 00:12:16.279
Whole, Like at least the ones that I've seen, Yeah,
235
00:12:16.799 --> 00:12:19.639
he definitely makes it. He definitely puts it as like
236
00:12:19.679 --> 00:12:23.519
an important thing where the characters drive the story and
237
00:12:23.600 --> 00:12:24.759
push the story along.
238
00:12:25.440 --> 00:12:30.480
I don't think I've ever seen one of his movies
239
00:12:30.679 --> 00:12:35.360
where the narrative drove everything. Essentially, what happens is characters
240
00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:39.399
are introduced first and yes foremost, and then everything else
241
00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:41.240
around them, their world whatever.
242
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:41.519
Like.
243
00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:44.320
The choices that the characters make drive the story.
244
00:12:44.399 --> 00:12:46.759
And that's what I love because Oakja has some character
245
00:12:46.879 --> 00:12:49.639
choices that frustrate you. Parasite has some character choices that
246
00:12:49.679 --> 00:12:52.639
frustrate you, and this is all for the sake of
247
00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:57.960
the characters growing. I think he is unparalleled with coming
248
00:12:58.039 --> 00:13:00.360
up with Even though this takes place it's more in
249
00:13:00.399 --> 00:13:04.080
like an actual reality Parasite does, he is still so
250
00:13:04.240 --> 00:13:07.039
good at introducing you to a world, a part of
251
00:13:07.080 --> 00:13:10.159
the world, whether it be Oakcha or Parasite or this one,
252
00:13:10.559 --> 00:13:15.039
and you just understand everything going on like the something
253
00:13:15.039 --> 00:13:18.039
as simple as whenever they were talking about we're going
254
00:13:18.080 --> 00:13:20.840
to go colonize a different planet we're working on like
255
00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:23.399
a spaceship, and then you're just kind of accept where
256
00:13:23.440 --> 00:13:26.759
you are. You're like this is reality, like you to me,
257
00:13:26.960 --> 00:13:31.480
there's seventeen mickeys and then like there's eighteen now yeah.
258
00:13:31.279 --> 00:13:31.799
Like oh my god.
259
00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:33.960
And it's like very subtle too, where it's like Mark
260
00:13:34.039 --> 00:13:37.080
Ruffo's character is like he's lost like the last two elections,
261
00:13:37.279 --> 00:13:40.720
yeah and everything, and that's why he's leading this like expedition.
262
00:13:40.399 --> 00:13:42.480
Yeah, to go and try to He wants to be
263
00:13:42.559 --> 00:13:46.360
the king of wherever they're going. And I also like that,
264
00:13:46.480 --> 00:13:48.279
like it's very obvious to me, like if we're going
265
00:13:48.320 --> 00:13:50.000
to start talking about like I do also love the
266
00:13:50.080 --> 00:13:53.120
characters in this. Mark Ruffalo is a very clear stand
267
00:13:53.240 --> 00:13:56.440
in for Donald Trump, and I feel like this movie
268
00:13:56.759 --> 00:14:00.519
it's interesting because he is a Korean filmmaker but obviously
269
00:14:00.600 --> 00:14:06.360
has interest in American politics or American going on. Oak
270
00:14:06.480 --> 00:14:09.200
Joe was a lot about the meat industry. I'm sure
271
00:14:09.200 --> 00:14:12.759
it was a critique of Tyson as well, but we
272
00:14:12.840 --> 00:14:15.120
hate the Tyson company. Yeah, I refuse to eat anything. Also,
273
00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:16.240
their stuff does taste worse.
274
00:14:16.679 --> 00:14:19.240
But I just hate the fact that they what they
275
00:14:19.279 --> 00:14:21.279
on like half of all chicken products.
276
00:14:21.279 --> 00:14:21.919
Oh that's true.
277
00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:24.919
Yeah, you have like a huge like capitalist like yeah,
278
00:14:25.159 --> 00:14:29.440
I forgot the other half. I don't know, Kirkland Kirk.
279
00:14:30.480 --> 00:14:33.240
But Steven John's also amazing in this. He keeps picking
280
00:14:33.240 --> 00:14:35.799
these like sleazy, douchey guys to play.
281
00:14:36.159 --> 00:14:37.440
I get it, guy, I get it.
282
00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:40.759
You saw beef right, Yeah I did. Yeah, he's amazing
283
00:14:40.799 --> 00:14:42.440
in that. He's kind of doing the same sort of
284
00:14:42.519 --> 00:14:44.759
like douchey energy for sure.
285
00:14:45.519 --> 00:14:47.320
But that's another thing.
286
00:14:47.320 --> 00:14:49.159
The way this movie like starts and you're kind of
287
00:14:49.960 --> 00:14:52.200
like even just from the get go, you're sort of
288
00:14:52.200 --> 00:14:54.919
introduced where he's you think he's like already dying. You're
289
00:14:55.000 --> 00:14:57.799
kind of immersed in this world already, Like Nifflheim sounds
290
00:14:57.799 --> 00:14:59.919
like something from like Thor or The Ring.
291
00:15:00.120 --> 00:15:01.679
Yeah.
292
00:15:01.720 --> 00:15:05.639
Another thing though, like in terms of the world building
293
00:15:05.720 --> 00:15:09.080
being amazing in this, those creatures, the creepers so cool.
294
00:15:09.279 --> 00:15:11.600
I love the way that they look, Yeah, but.
295
00:15:11.960 --> 00:15:15.279
I like their Yeah, their design looks amazing, and I
296
00:15:15.279 --> 00:15:17.919
guess like the progression of how we learn about these
297
00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:21.159
creatures as well throughout the movie was also great. Yeah,
298
00:15:21.399 --> 00:15:23.039
Like I like the fact of us not really knowing
299
00:15:23.279 --> 00:15:25.799
what they are and like what they do yet until later.
300
00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:28.519
On in the movie. Yeah, and then just also knowing
301
00:15:28.519 --> 00:15:31.080
the fact that they don't really hurt anyone or can't
302
00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:33.679
hurt anyone. No. I love that says a lot too.
303
00:15:33.559 --> 00:15:37.600
About like us as like a mankind just willing to
304
00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:40.399
start a war when we just don't understand what's going on.
305
00:15:40.559 --> 00:15:42.919
Yeah, No, there's even they're like they're in the middle
306
00:15:42.960 --> 00:15:44.799
of a conflict in like the third part of this
307
00:15:44.960 --> 00:15:48.639
movie where Naomi Aki, which we haven't even talked about yet,
308
00:15:48.720 --> 00:15:50.799
who's kind of the anchor of this movie actually, like
309
00:15:50.919 --> 00:15:54.120
obviously Robert Pattinson's the main character, but this movie is
310
00:15:54.159 --> 00:15:57.519
more romantically driven than you might think it would be,
311
00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:01.399
and because he does everything he does for her character, yes,
312
00:16:01.799 --> 00:16:05.679
at the end of the day, but just in terms
313
00:16:05.879 --> 00:16:09.279
of a part of the world building that I love
314
00:16:09.840 --> 00:16:12.159
and you can tell just based off of how they're
315
00:16:12.200 --> 00:16:14.279
marketing this movie. And then it was clarified by something
316
00:16:14.279 --> 00:16:18.320
that Robert Pattinson. It said the way the creepers talk
317
00:16:18.639 --> 00:16:22.720
in terms of even when they bluff that they are
318
00:16:22.759 --> 00:16:26.440
going to kill all of humanity, whatever.
319
00:16:26.200 --> 00:16:28.480
They say cause an extinction.
320
00:16:28.720 --> 00:16:32.200
Yeah, what it reminded me of is anything coming out of.
321
00:16:32.200 --> 00:16:33.159
A Ghibli movie.
322
00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:36.279
It felt very much like the energy from that. And
323
00:16:36.320 --> 00:16:40.120
then Robert Pattinson himself said, I've actually I watch a
324
00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:42.559
lot of anime and I modeled part of how my
325
00:16:42.639 --> 00:16:45.840
characters act based entirely off of anime. It was like,
326
00:16:45.879 --> 00:16:49.480
this is a very like anime driven feeling type of movie.
327
00:16:49.799 --> 00:16:51.639
I was like, that makes so much sense just based
328
00:16:51.639 --> 00:16:54.039
off of how they treat the animals.
329
00:16:53.519 --> 00:16:54.440
That they made up for this.
330
00:16:54.519 --> 00:16:57.879
It felt it probably like of course, you know, studied
331
00:16:57.879 --> 00:16:59.159
for the boy in the hair and when he was
332
00:16:59.159 --> 00:17:00.000
looking on that.
333
00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:02.600
Yeah, I can say like be similar to like Princess Monon,
334
00:17:02.679 --> 00:17:06.240
Okay exactly, Yeah, just that sort of like harmonious energy
335
00:17:06.359 --> 00:17:07.480
with nature.
336
00:17:08.160 --> 00:17:12.559
And it's not even a critique so much like, of course,
337
00:17:12.559 --> 00:17:14.920
it's a critique on how we treat animals like Mark
338
00:17:14.960 --> 00:17:16.920
Ruffalo's immediately kill them on and you're like, for what,
339
00:17:17.000 --> 00:17:17.599
they haven't.
340
00:17:17.359 --> 00:17:19.720
Even done anything. Yeah, they haven't even shown any kind
341
00:17:19.720 --> 00:17:22.559
of violent nature really well, like anything to like actually
342
00:17:22.599 --> 00:17:23.400
hurt humans.
343
00:17:23.720 --> 00:17:27.720
Yeah, And so that's obviously like this movie's about so
344
00:17:27.799 --> 00:17:31.200
many separate things and is there anything else that stood
345
00:17:31.200 --> 00:17:33.160
out to you as like the just in terms of
346
00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:35.480
what it was about that you like really gravitated to.
347
00:17:35.680 --> 00:17:37.119
I think when I really.
348
00:17:38.319 --> 00:17:42.519
What stood out to me was just the just that
349
00:17:42.680 --> 00:17:46.799
ethical question of whether or not these multiples are if
350
00:17:46.839 --> 00:17:50.839
we just treat them as like individuals or one whole person, Yeah, right,
351
00:17:51.000 --> 00:17:53.400
and just bringing up that question, and then just seeing
352
00:17:53.400 --> 00:17:55.119
whenever that question got brought up in the very beginning
353
00:17:55.160 --> 00:17:58.079
of the movie, and then it's just that question kept
354
00:17:58.119 --> 00:18:02.440
slowly like it just kept like creeping behind.
355
00:18:02.440 --> 00:18:05.680
Creepers and minecraft.
356
00:18:06.799 --> 00:18:10.200
Creeping behind anytime you would see these multiples together and
357
00:18:10.240 --> 00:18:13.759
how everybody else would treat them as well. And I
358
00:18:13.759 --> 00:18:15.640
guess whenever they brought up that one example with that
359
00:18:15.720 --> 00:18:18.000
scientist and then him being a murder and like having
360
00:18:18.079 --> 00:18:21.480
multiples of himself too, it just made me question more
361
00:18:21.519 --> 00:18:24.039
so like are these people like, are these like you know,
362
00:18:24.160 --> 00:18:27.759
Mickey seventeen, Mickey eighteen really different from one another? They
363
00:18:27.799 --> 00:18:31.599
seem different, like at different and like the choices that
364
00:18:31.640 --> 00:18:34.480
they're making too, especially when like they're certain shots in
365
00:18:34.559 --> 00:18:37.799
the in the movie too, where ye like later in
366
00:18:37.839 --> 00:18:42.440
the end of the movie where Naomi Aki is like
367
00:18:42.559 --> 00:18:45.960
about to kill Steven yen and then you got Mickey
368
00:18:45.960 --> 00:18:48.200
seventeen saying no, don't do it, and make you eighteen
369
00:18:48.960 --> 00:18:51.880
the right saying do it kill them the devil?
370
00:18:52.400 --> 00:18:52.599
Yes?
371
00:18:53.039 --> 00:18:54.559
And so it's just like one of those two things,
372
00:18:54.559 --> 00:18:58.359
like these people look like they're doing different things, like
373
00:18:58.440 --> 00:19:01.519
different actions, different choices, So they looked different or like
374
00:19:01.559 --> 00:19:03.559
sound different, but they looked the same and everything and
375
00:19:03.559 --> 00:19:04.759
they still have the same memories.
376
00:19:04.920 --> 00:19:05.160
Yeah.
377
00:19:05.240 --> 00:19:07.960
I think it was an interesting visual comparison to like
378
00:19:08.079 --> 00:19:11.799
actually just in terms of as you evolve over the
379
00:19:11.799 --> 00:19:14.000
course of time, people say, were you the same person
380
00:19:14.039 --> 00:19:17.359
that you were however long ago? In this movie kind
381
00:19:17.359 --> 00:19:19.720
of like put me in an existential crisis a little bit,
382
00:19:19.799 --> 00:19:22.160
just because it was a joke scene right with the
383
00:19:22.359 --> 00:19:25.000
murder thing, but it really had me thinking whenever they
384
00:19:25.000 --> 00:19:28.920
were like is the question that they were like corroborators?
385
00:19:29.240 --> 00:19:32.000
Did they act independently or were they told? Or would
386
00:19:32.000 --> 00:19:33.599
they all have done the same thing? Yeah, And then
387
00:19:33.599 --> 00:19:36.119
for some reason I was like, oh no, I don't.
388
00:19:35.920 --> 00:19:40.119
Know even with the science, like the science who like
389
00:19:40.359 --> 00:19:43.640
multiple I had multiples of himself made me think because
390
00:19:43.640 --> 00:19:45.720
I'm like, wait, was there only one of them? Like
391
00:19:45.799 --> 00:19:47.960
one of that like multiple I just went out to
392
00:19:47.960 --> 00:19:50.000
start killing people, and the other ones just did nothing
393
00:19:50.039 --> 00:19:52.480
else and just did their normal things as like normal
394
00:19:52.480 --> 00:19:55.759
people in society. So and then makes me think like, wait,
395
00:19:56.319 --> 00:20:00.279
I guess every person just had their own like personality
396
00:20:00.359 --> 00:20:01.680
and like their own choices that they.
397
00:20:01.559 --> 00:20:02.000
Want to make.
398
00:20:02.160 --> 00:20:04.720
But if you were to have done that many of them,
399
00:20:04.759 --> 00:20:07.440
like do you lose part of your personality for that,
400
00:20:07.480 --> 00:20:09.400
like all at once? Or like does it focus on one,
401
00:20:09.559 --> 00:20:11.880
you know, strong centered part of you? Yeah, this is
402
00:20:12.039 --> 00:20:14.240
just like the moral question that was asked in Leelan
403
00:20:14.240 --> 00:20:15.400
and Stitch to Stitch.
404
00:20:15.240 --> 00:20:17.359
Has a glitch. That was good.
405
00:20:17.440 --> 00:20:29.880
Dude, that was good. I couldn't helped. I thought about
406
00:20:29.920 --> 00:20:30.640
that movie during this.
407
00:20:30.720 --> 00:20:31.319
I was like, this is it?
408
00:20:31.799 --> 00:20:39.200
Like no, and so that's good, Like this movie has
409
00:20:39.240 --> 00:20:41.400
so many different things going for it, like of course
410
00:20:41.440 --> 00:20:43.920
we're going to bring up our negatives if.
411
00:20:43.799 --> 00:20:47.240
We have any, but the I think I have one negative.
412
00:20:47.319 --> 00:20:48.880
I kind of have one, but it's one of those
413
00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:50.839
things where I'm like, do I care that much? But
414
00:20:50.880 --> 00:20:53.279
of course we'll bring up what other people thought whenever
415
00:20:53.319 --> 00:20:55.799
we don't have too many. I like to mention what
416
00:20:55.880 --> 00:21:00.839
I've read. But if you think it's messy, I understand, that,
417
00:21:00.920 --> 00:21:02.440
but I also feel like this movie just has a
418
00:21:02.440 --> 00:21:05.440
lot on its mind, and that's all right, Like did
419
00:21:05.480 --> 00:21:08.720
you feel like it kind of changed narratively, like thematically
420
00:21:08.720 --> 00:21:10.160
what it was about Like halfway through.
421
00:21:10.359 --> 00:21:13.279
I think he just kept changing based off the characters
422
00:21:13.599 --> 00:21:16.119
and like what we're going through because of course you
423
00:21:16.160 --> 00:21:21.319
have like this. They have like one thing they're talking
424
00:21:21.359 --> 00:21:24.599
about with like multiples, and then they're having another thing
425
00:21:24.799 --> 00:21:28.759
about having a pure race.
426
00:21:28.960 --> 00:21:29.799
That was so rare.
427
00:21:29.960 --> 00:21:32.720
I was just like whoa what and just saying like
428
00:21:32.839 --> 00:21:35.200
or like they choose that one girl saying like you
429
00:21:35.319 --> 00:21:37.680
are the perfect candidates for us, oh my god.
430
00:21:37.720 --> 00:21:38.680
Whatever. It was like.
431
00:21:40.160 --> 00:21:44.680
It's like the perfect specimen or whatever. Yeah, but then
432
00:21:45.119 --> 00:21:48.079
seems totally fine with it. Yeah, it's so strange.
433
00:21:48.119 --> 00:21:50.480
I was like what And it's like different themes or
434
00:21:50.480 --> 00:21:53.839
like just different things are just happening around this movie.
435
00:21:54.400 --> 00:21:56.920
But they all have but just based off the characters,
436
00:21:56.960 --> 00:21:59.279
and that's what really drives like the story, right.
437
00:21:59.839 --> 00:22:03.400
So naturally, of course this starts off with it's a
438
00:22:03.440 --> 00:22:06.839
critique on the working industry on how you can sort
439
00:22:06.839 --> 00:22:10.079
of treat laborers however, take them to hell and back,
440
00:22:10.119 --> 00:22:11.359
and then at the end of the day, they're like
441
00:22:11.400 --> 00:22:14.799
you are just another worker. Like you're like, if you die,
442
00:22:15.400 --> 00:22:17.799
this is obviously to the extreme to make the point.
443
00:22:18.519 --> 00:22:21.440
If you quit, if you get fired, if you die,
444
00:22:21.680 --> 00:22:24.519
whatever it may be, we will just you are replaceable.
445
00:22:25.079 --> 00:22:29.279
And so whenever Mark Ruffalo says like I don't care
446
00:22:29.359 --> 00:22:31.480
like kill him, like we could just get another one,
447
00:22:31.480 --> 00:22:34.720
like he's expendable. Yeah, they're I think they literally call
448
00:22:34.759 --> 00:22:38.240
them expendables, right, yeah, yeah, yeah.
449
00:22:38.240 --> 00:22:40.680
Or four there's four of them. Yeah, remember we talked
450
00:22:40.680 --> 00:22:41.000
about that.
451
00:22:41.640 --> 00:22:46.319
Yeah, And then it evolves into something else where it's
452
00:22:46.400 --> 00:22:50.119
kind of like, all right, so the sense of self,
453
00:22:50.160 --> 00:22:52.640
the sense of identity, like who am I really? If
454
00:22:53.039 --> 00:22:55.240
I loved whenever he was like I don't know, he
455
00:22:55.319 --> 00:22:57.440
was like I was just I would get replaced and
456
00:22:57.480 --> 00:22:59.640
then I would come right back out and he was like,
457
00:23:00.559 --> 00:23:04.079
if you're here, then I'm just gone. And I loved
458
00:23:04.119 --> 00:23:06.519
that so much, And like it's one of this movie
459
00:23:06.599 --> 00:23:08.799
drops like small lines of dialogue that kind of sends
460
00:23:08.839 --> 00:23:10.319
you into like a spiral a little bit.
461
00:23:10.319 --> 00:23:11.200
But then I forgot about that.
462
00:23:12.759 --> 00:23:14.359
But then the movie just kind of keeps going. You're
463
00:23:14.440 --> 00:23:17.799
like until it sort of drops another thing on you
464
00:23:18.519 --> 00:23:22.960
where it just like evolves, like I said, and then
465
00:23:23.000 --> 00:23:25.480
once it gets past that, then it's sort of asking
466
00:23:25.519 --> 00:23:29.000
the question of like talking about colonialism and then whether
467
00:23:29.119 --> 00:23:31.680
or not it's okay to you know, take over somebody
468
00:23:31.680 --> 00:23:35.680
else's space, and like how obviously the US has done
469
00:23:35.720 --> 00:23:38.640
that since we're literally pioneered and built off of that
470
00:23:39.240 --> 00:23:41.240
in history. And I think it's funny that bangs you
471
00:23:41.279 --> 00:23:43.319
and Ho from Korea. I should look up if they
472
00:23:43.359 --> 00:23:46.160
have any history, if anything like that gravitated to that
473
00:23:46.359 --> 00:23:48.279
in just terms of.
474
00:23:48.240 --> 00:23:49.720
Like US history.
475
00:23:49.839 --> 00:23:53.839
But then like sometimes it'll even go off into the
476
00:23:54.839 --> 00:23:58.359
Another thing is like you know, racism and bigotry about
477
00:23:58.400 --> 00:23:59.279
like the.
478
00:23:59.319 --> 00:24:01.279
Likes yeh, perfect specimens.
479
00:24:01.359 --> 00:24:04.960
Yeah, yeah, just different things that they this movie itself
480
00:24:05.079 --> 00:24:08.519
was just talking about. Yeah, but it was never directly
481
00:24:09.599 --> 00:24:11.839
about it. It's just like the things that the characters, like,
482
00:24:11.880 --> 00:24:12.960
what their goals were.
483
00:24:13.160 --> 00:24:16.440
Yeah, it felt very much like obviously real life. Yes,
484
00:24:16.559 --> 00:24:20.039
we're not focused on one thing. This just kind of
485
00:24:20.160 --> 00:24:23.079
was like whatever was going on. What was going on
486
00:24:23.400 --> 00:24:25.960
was whatever they were having to deal with now naturally
487
00:24:26.599 --> 00:24:29.319
I read I didn't read the book Mickey seven.
488
00:24:30.039 --> 00:24:31.920
Oh yeah, I didn't know it was based off a novel.
489
00:24:32.000 --> 00:24:35.640
Oh really Yeah, but I'd read that. Apparently the book
490
00:24:35.680 --> 00:24:37.319
also does the same thing. It's got a lot on
491
00:24:37.400 --> 00:24:39.799
its mind, so it does change thematically.
492
00:24:39.200 --> 00:24:39.759
Over and over.
493
00:24:39.839 --> 00:24:42.319
Okay, so they retained that energy about it, but it
494
00:24:42.319 --> 00:24:46.160
does sort of land on the third act being about
495
00:24:46.599 --> 00:24:49.519
the whole thing, but between like animals and animals and
496
00:24:49.559 --> 00:24:52.279
then like really like the multiples. Yeah, and then like
497
00:24:52.319 --> 00:24:57.440
living in similar space of course. But then I want
498
00:24:57.599 --> 00:25:00.359
to ask you, like, did you have a favorite scene
499
00:25:00.359 --> 00:25:01.559
in this because I have one.
500
00:25:02.240 --> 00:25:06.880
Oh, what was my favorite scene? Probably when like they're
501
00:25:07.000 --> 00:25:09.119
Mickey seventeen eighteen we're finding one another.
502
00:25:09.720 --> 00:25:11.160
Yeah, that's probably my favorite scene.
503
00:25:11.240 --> 00:25:16.880
My favorite scene takes place at a dinner where oh, it.
504
00:25:16.960 --> 00:25:20.480
Just devolves entirely. I just got gets like worse and worse.
505
00:25:20.880 --> 00:25:23.720
It got worse, and what was it called purple Joe? Oh?
506
00:25:23.799 --> 00:25:27.240
Yeah, then he is awesome. So this movie it's hilarious.
507
00:25:27.240 --> 00:25:30.079
We haven't really gotten to mention yet. It's so funny,
508
00:25:30.079 --> 00:25:31.200
but it's just so subtle.
509
00:25:31.240 --> 00:25:33.799
It's like the subtle comedy type of thing where it's like,
510
00:25:33.839 --> 00:25:35.759
oh no, it's like something bad's happening, but it's so
511
00:25:35.920 --> 00:25:37.319
funny too at the same time.
512
00:25:37.599 --> 00:25:40.160
Whenever like there's a joke that's so deadpan by one
513
00:25:40.160 --> 00:25:45.000
of the scientists where he's like Mark Ruffalo's character is like,
514
00:25:45.039 --> 00:25:47.119
don't beat yourself up about being a failure or whatever
515
00:25:47.200 --> 00:25:48.079
it is, and then he's like.
516
00:25:48.039 --> 00:25:50.240
Sir, the jel's not working.
517
00:25:50.559 --> 00:25:52.720
And then I'm like, you're just like leaving this poor
518
00:25:52.839 --> 00:25:55.079
dude like you know, obviously writhing in pain.
519
00:25:55.559 --> 00:25:59.200
And then like he's like choking and he's like puts
520
00:25:59.200 --> 00:26:00.359
his hand on his face too.
521
00:26:00.519 --> 00:26:05.400
Oh yeah, But Robert Pattinson, of course, you know, it
522
00:26:05.519 --> 00:26:07.839
goes to that being said that he's an incredible actor,
523
00:26:08.559 --> 00:26:11.759
and he of course has a lot physically to do
524
00:26:11.839 --> 00:26:15.079
in this movie as well. But that scene just like
525
00:26:15.240 --> 00:26:18.960
starts from the very beginning where it's a congratulations just
526
00:26:19.000 --> 00:26:21.200
constantly eating like the way that he's eating too, and
527
00:26:21.240 --> 00:26:24.400
then that steak looked raw, and then they were like, oh,
528
00:26:24.480 --> 00:26:27.319
it's a test, by the way, and then I think
529
00:26:27.319 --> 00:26:29.880
it's the character the girl whatever her name was. We
530
00:26:29.880 --> 00:26:33.480
looked it up, but where she was like, did you
531
00:26:33.559 --> 00:26:36.359
test like Jessica, Jessica.
532
00:26:36.440 --> 00:26:41.720
Her name is Jessica. Wait wait, wait wait, I'll look
533
00:26:41.759 --> 00:26:43.440
it up. Well, oh, I'll look it up while you
534
00:26:43.440 --> 00:26:45.680
explained to me, yeah, like she's just wondering.
535
00:26:45.680 --> 00:26:47.400
It's like you were you only brough him in here
536
00:26:47.440 --> 00:26:50.400
just for tests and everything, and then he's like, oh, well,
537
00:26:50.400 --> 00:26:52.039
like we were just testing out these new things. And
538
00:26:52.039 --> 00:26:54.839
then it's just like one test after another with him, yeah,
539
00:26:54.880 --> 00:26:56.559
which is insane. And then they were ready to kill
540
00:26:56.599 --> 00:26:58.480
him off because he didn't seem like he was healing
541
00:26:58.519 --> 00:27:00.359
from the Purple Joe injection.
542
00:27:00.680 --> 00:27:04.119
Yeah, well, okay, before we move on with that. Her
543
00:27:04.200 --> 00:27:08.319
name is Anna Maria vartolemey. Oh, her name is Kai, yeah,
544
00:27:08.400 --> 00:27:12.960
Kai kats in this but oh no, I'm at the actress.
545
00:27:13.480 --> 00:27:16.519
But of course, something that I loved about this is
546
00:27:16.640 --> 00:27:19.200
naturally I think that the first half of the movie,
547
00:27:20.160 --> 00:27:22.880
he says he does everything for Nasha, Yes, but we
548
00:27:22.920 --> 00:27:25.440
don't fully get to see her yet, like we see
549
00:27:25.480 --> 00:27:27.359
them interact. But I feel like she's obviously in the
550
00:27:27.359 --> 00:27:30.119
second half a lot more yes, and we see like
551
00:27:30.200 --> 00:27:33.119
his drive for it at that point.
552
00:27:33.200 --> 00:27:37.799
Yeah, because especially with Mickey seventeen and yeah, because it
553
00:27:37.799 --> 00:27:40.599
seemed like Mickey eighteen was definitely doing his actions. It's like,
554
00:27:41.279 --> 00:27:43.799
I guess like when Mickey, just Mickey as a whole,
555
00:27:44.519 --> 00:27:49.079
had two different goals where he wanted to still be with.
556
00:27:50.799 --> 00:27:54.519
Nasha. I don't know what you're saying, Natasha, Nasha, but
557
00:27:54.880 --> 00:27:58.079
also wanted to get rid of Mark ruffles character as well,
558
00:27:58.200 --> 00:28:00.799
because he's the one who let this program happen.
559
00:28:01.079 --> 00:28:05.400
Yeah, and I feel like that ties into something I
560
00:28:05.480 --> 00:28:08.920
liked a lot. Was that the sort of center of
561
00:28:08.960 --> 00:28:11.799
it when you see him dying over and over. Of
562
00:28:11.799 --> 00:28:14.039
course it's played it as a joke, but then later
563
00:28:14.079 --> 00:28:16.480
we see that recontextualized again where he's like, but she
564
00:28:16.640 --> 00:28:17.359
was always there, he.
565
00:28:17.400 --> 00:28:18.200
Was like throughout everything.
566
00:28:18.240 --> 00:28:21.119
And then I love the scene where they're killing him
567
00:28:21.160 --> 00:28:23.319
with like a virus inside of a tube, but then
568
00:28:23.359 --> 00:28:26.519
she goes in there to be with him, and there's
569
00:28:26.559 --> 00:28:29.119
a kind of like there's a rhythm to that that
570
00:28:29.160 --> 00:28:33.400
I really liked. But I think that their relationship and
571
00:28:33.440 --> 00:28:36.039
their connection with each other so strong in this and
572
00:28:36.079 --> 00:28:38.720
it's definitely one of like the leading things that makes it.
573
00:28:39.279 --> 00:28:42.079
I feel like, obviously, nothing like tragic happens in this movie.
574
00:28:42.079 --> 00:28:42.400
Really.
575
00:28:42.440 --> 00:28:44.359
I mean, Mark Ruffalo blows up, but you're kind of
576
00:28:44.440 --> 00:28:46.799
like he deserves it. Honestly, what I thought was going
577
00:28:46.799 --> 00:28:48.440
to happen with that is I thought that the animals
578
00:28:48.440 --> 00:28:50.480
were going to kill him in like a really violent way.
579
00:28:50.559 --> 00:28:53.119
But that's I guess that's not the thing that we're like, Hey,
580
00:28:53.160 --> 00:28:54.359
the animals are really nice.
581
00:28:54.880 --> 00:28:56.880
They were, and did you feel like they made them
582
00:28:56.920 --> 00:28:58.960
so nice that whenever she was like cutting the tail
583
00:28:59.000 --> 00:29:01.920
in that way, you're like this terrible roast like and
584
00:29:01.960 --> 00:29:05.759
then she like that dream that he had too. Oh
585
00:29:05.920 --> 00:29:08.279
that scared me too. I was like what because I
586
00:29:08.279 --> 00:29:09.799
thought it was legit. I was like, how much more
587
00:29:09.839 --> 00:29:11.640
of this movie is there? And then I thought it
588
00:29:11.680 --> 00:29:13.519
was going to like start over and she's like, well,
589
00:29:13.559 --> 00:29:15.200
this is what the people really want to know. It
590
00:29:15.279 --> 00:29:16.720
isn't who's the people?
591
00:29:16.920 --> 00:29:17.000
Like?
592
00:29:17.039 --> 00:29:19.039
I love Mark Ruffalo and he's great in this, but
593
00:29:19.160 --> 00:29:25.279
that's not Mark Ruffle the actor. Yeah, that's what some politicians.
594
00:29:25.519 --> 00:29:29.119
Politicians stand in for her real life. And Tony Kolett's
595
00:29:29.160 --> 00:29:31.880
character is kind of playing the like rich lady that
596
00:29:31.920 --> 00:29:34.839
has nothing to do but like other than be obsessed with.
597
00:29:35.200 --> 00:29:37.240
Like she seems so caring at first, but I think
598
00:29:37.240 --> 00:29:39.920
the moment for me, yeah, when you kind of know
599
00:29:39.960 --> 00:29:42.640
how she really is is whenever she pulls that rug
600
00:29:43.119 --> 00:29:47.200
from me whatever before Mark Ruffalo's characters was about to
601
00:29:47.200 --> 00:29:49.799
shoot him because he wasn't healing from that injection.
602
00:29:50.079 --> 00:29:54.519
No, she was like, you're gonna shoot him takes a
603
00:29:54.559 --> 00:29:57.640
carpet away. Yeah, that's really funny.
604
00:29:57.759 --> 00:29:58.319
That's what I'm saying.
605
00:29:58.359 --> 00:30:00.000
It's a moments like that where it's like something seriou
606
00:30:00.119 --> 00:30:02.599
about it happened, but it's so it comes off so funny.
607
00:30:02.640 --> 00:30:05.799
It's just that like dark humor sensibility where like you're
608
00:30:05.839 --> 00:30:08.079
kind of laughing, You're like, this situation is like fucked up,
609
00:30:08.200 --> 00:30:11.640
but like let's get into more before we like any
610
00:30:11.680 --> 00:30:15.279
negatives or anything like that. The technical aspects of this movie.
611
00:30:15.319 --> 00:30:17.960
This movie was made for like one hundred and twenty
612
00:30:17.960 --> 00:30:20.759
five million dollar budget. Oh and it was shot by
613
00:30:20.759 --> 00:30:25.680
the cinematographer who shot seven And yeah, that's oppressive. So
614
00:30:26.319 --> 00:30:29.240
something that I caught kind of right off the bat
615
00:30:29.559 --> 00:30:32.200
is this movie's beautiful. Of course, it is, even without
616
00:30:32.200 --> 00:30:37.240
the the CG whatever stuff. The shot where he's initially
617
00:30:37.279 --> 00:30:39.200
in that like sign up room and you see the
618
00:30:39.240 --> 00:30:42.400
spiraling staircase and he's just sort of like there and
619
00:30:42.440 --> 00:30:44.440
you can sort of see that like it's shot in
620
00:30:44.480 --> 00:30:47.119
a way where everything is kind of like anchoring over him.
621
00:30:47.359 --> 00:30:49.359
That was beautiful. Yeah, But did any of like the
622
00:30:49.400 --> 00:30:51.759
technical stuff catch your eye in this.
623
00:30:52.160 --> 00:30:54.759
I think it's just the editing aspect too. Yeah, I
624
00:30:54.799 --> 00:30:56.880
think I really enjoyed that, and like the way they
625
00:30:56.880 --> 00:31:00.759
would showcase that, like Mickey seven to make it eighteen
626
00:31:00.759 --> 00:31:05.960
and like one space as well, and utilizing like another
627
00:31:06.079 --> 00:31:09.599
character in that scene and just basically spacing them out
628
00:31:09.599 --> 00:31:12.039
and like trying to like showcase to like these two
629
00:31:12.599 --> 00:31:14.559
these two different characters are in one.
630
00:31:14.359 --> 00:31:16.119
Scene, but they're the same person.
631
00:31:16.400 --> 00:31:20.480
Yeah, which honestly I always find that so fascinating to
632
00:31:20.680 --> 00:31:24.319
like how it works around there, like the camera tricks
633
00:31:24.359 --> 00:31:26.319
and like the yeah around it, you start to.
634
00:31:26.359 --> 00:31:30.200
Kind of like lose the sense that that's too like
635
00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:32.599
it's one person, you know, but you feel.
636
00:31:32.359 --> 00:31:37.519
Like believing parent trappers, yeah, yeah, or Zach.
637
00:31:37.359 --> 00:31:40.640
And Cody, but they're obviously different.
638
00:31:41.119 --> 00:31:44.400
They're always yes they're twins, but they're definitely different heads.
639
00:31:44.759 --> 00:31:46.680
They're like one was taller than the other, one was
640
00:31:46.680 --> 00:31:53.559
into Yeah, one was skinnier, a little bigger. Yes, But honestly,
641
00:31:54.400 --> 00:31:58.400
let's see, do you have any more positives? Those are
642
00:31:58.400 --> 00:31:59.319
all the ones I could think of.
643
00:32:00.319 --> 00:32:03.680
Okay, so let's move on to our negatives. If you
644
00:32:03.720 --> 00:32:06.200
have any I hate this movie all right, But if
645
00:32:06.200 --> 00:32:08.200
you're just like we just talked positively for half an hour.
646
00:32:08.279 --> 00:32:09.720
You're like, all right, here's my other problems.
647
00:32:09.759 --> 00:32:12.039
It's like an hour long, here's an hour longer. Too
648
00:32:12.079 --> 00:32:12.839
many mickeys.
649
00:32:13.359 --> 00:32:17.839
My only negative was probably just the beginning. I would say, yeah,
650
00:32:17.880 --> 00:32:21.759
and but even then it just wasn't It's not much
651
00:32:21.759 --> 00:32:24.079
of a negative, but I think it just took a
652
00:32:24.119 --> 00:32:27.119
minute for it to like actually start where the movie
653
00:32:27.279 --> 00:32:28.559
was like essentially going to start.
654
00:32:28.799 --> 00:32:29.640
Yeah.
655
00:32:29.799 --> 00:32:32.119
See, I kind of had a similar thing, but I
656
00:32:32.119 --> 00:32:34.759
wouldn't call it a critique. I was just more so
657
00:32:34.960 --> 00:32:38.160
kind of like I seen that trailer a lot. Ye,
658
00:32:38.319 --> 00:32:40.720
so I was kind of like, you know what the
659
00:32:40.720 --> 00:32:44.079
premise is, of course you do, and so you're sort
660
00:32:44.119 --> 00:32:46.359
of like wondering, waiting when does the.
661
00:32:46.359 --> 00:32:48.039
Other Robert Pattinson show up?
662
00:32:48.480 --> 00:32:50.960
But then you're kind of also along for that ride,
663
00:32:51.079 --> 00:32:53.720
just because I thought that the narration was so investing,
664
00:32:54.119 --> 00:32:57.599
and I really liked his performance and the like just
665
00:32:57.640 --> 00:33:00.799
the rhythm of his voice. I feel like Scorsese in
666
00:33:00.839 --> 00:33:04.599
particular can also get something similar done when it comes
667
00:33:04.680 --> 00:33:07.920
to a lot of editing back and forth, a lot
668
00:33:07.960 --> 00:33:10.279
of narration at.
669
00:33:10.160 --> 00:33:11.240
The beginning of a movie.
670
00:33:11.480 --> 00:33:15.480
Yeah, it's hard to pull off, just because exposition can
671
00:33:15.519 --> 00:33:18.039
feel so like, oh my god, I get like, okay.
672
00:33:17.839 --> 00:33:20.799
Especially if like whenever you would showcase like a scene
673
00:33:20.839 --> 00:33:24.039
that happened in the past. Yeah, and those characters in
674
00:33:24.079 --> 00:33:27.519
that scene aren't really talking, they're just moving around. Yeah,
675
00:33:27.559 --> 00:33:29.839
and they're just acting based off like what the narration
676
00:33:30.000 --> 00:33:32.119
is going off of two. It kind of just feels
677
00:33:32.279 --> 00:33:35.039
very I don't know, lazy, but my eyes too.
678
00:33:35.400 --> 00:33:37.279
That's why I like, but I never felt that way
679
00:33:37.319 --> 00:33:39.960
with this, you know, just because you're like, this is
680
00:33:40.000 --> 00:33:42.559
the movie, like this isn't necessarily I didn't feel like
681
00:33:42.880 --> 00:33:45.599
there were any cop outs. I didn't feel like they
682
00:33:45.599 --> 00:33:49.240
were kind of compromising on any sort of storytelling, especially
683
00:33:49.279 --> 00:33:51.960
when it comes down to once you start getting in
684
00:33:51.960 --> 00:33:53.359
to the more joky aspect.
685
00:33:53.079 --> 00:33:57.000
Of where's the prime scientist of the main guy? Yeah,
686
00:33:57.880 --> 00:34:02.079
I thought I was like, it's kind of seem like Matrix. Yeah.
687
00:34:02.319 --> 00:34:03.960
No, all that stuff was like really cool. And then
688
00:34:04.039 --> 00:34:07.240
that I think speaks volumes about the world building here
689
00:34:07.279 --> 00:34:09.840
as well. Like once it was done, I thought about
690
00:34:09.840 --> 00:34:12.519
this movie a fair amount. I saw it today it's Tuesday,
691
00:34:12.719 --> 00:34:14.639
and I saw it on Sunday. I've like kind of
692
00:34:14.639 --> 00:34:17.960
thought about it NonStop. Yeah, and that it felt real.
693
00:34:18.039 --> 00:34:22.480
It felt like a real thing, and of course in
694
00:34:22.519 --> 00:34:24.519
a scary way. It kind of echoes the sense that
695
00:34:24.559 --> 00:34:25.960
you do feel like some of this stuff is a
696
00:34:25.960 --> 00:34:27.400
possibility in the future.
697
00:34:28.199 --> 00:34:31.159
But is that they're already doing cloning but not to
698
00:34:31.199 --> 00:34:33.760
that extent, No, just like with dogs with animals.
699
00:34:33.800 --> 00:34:37.079
Yeah, yeah, I guess I'd also ask one more question
700
00:34:37.480 --> 00:34:40.400
of this is just me like asking you this because
701
00:34:40.440 --> 00:34:42.199
it's kind of a question posed by this. Do you
702
00:34:42.239 --> 00:34:46.840
feel like there's a sense of is there any kind
703
00:34:46.920 --> 00:34:52.079
of like danger to just if you just kept repeating
704
00:34:52.280 --> 00:34:55.119
like your your life? Oh, do you feel like cloning
705
00:34:55.159 --> 00:34:56.039
on myself?
706
00:34:56.360 --> 00:34:56.559
Yeah?
707
00:34:56.639 --> 00:34:59.000
Do you think like it loses your sense of self
708
00:34:59.079 --> 00:35:00.159
over the course of time.
709
00:35:00.400 --> 00:35:03.679
I think you would start taking less risk, Yeah, because
710
00:35:04.039 --> 00:35:06.519
you're like, well, I am going to come back again,
711
00:35:06.639 --> 00:35:07.920
so why take a risk now?
712
00:35:07.960 --> 00:35:10.199
And that's why I feel like Mickey eighteen was sort
713
00:35:10.199 --> 00:35:12.400
of like kind of flat in terms of some of
714
00:35:12.440 --> 00:35:16.039
his reactions. He also gets super angry, But I feel
715
00:35:16.039 --> 00:35:17.800
like it's just because you start to harbor a kind
716
00:35:17.800 --> 00:35:20.320
of weight with you where you're like, if my whole,
717
00:35:20.360 --> 00:35:23.920
like you know, goal is just to die, then.
718
00:35:24.000 --> 00:35:31.000
Yeah, I can see like the positives of multiplication based
719
00:35:31.039 --> 00:35:34.079
on the fact of like bringing certain animals back from extinction.
720
00:35:34.639 --> 00:35:37.599
I can see that, but then there's also some animals. Now,
721
00:35:37.960 --> 00:35:39.719
there's also some animals.
722
00:35:39.599 --> 00:35:43.800
That you know would not thrive in like society that
723
00:35:43.840 --> 00:35:44.800
we have now too.
724
00:35:44.960 --> 00:35:47.000
So but like, let's be real, did you see the
725
00:35:47.039 --> 00:35:49.239
thing about like the wooly mammons I was trying being
726
00:35:49.280 --> 00:35:52.880
brought back. It's like we are quite literally trying, like
727
00:35:52.920 --> 00:35:54.639
we are going the footsteps of what this movie is
728
00:35:54.679 --> 00:35:57.920
talking about. And I can't help it. I do feel
729
00:35:58.199 --> 00:36:01.320
and I understand that if the company's got a hold
730
00:36:01.320 --> 00:36:05.599
of the idea of the whole process, the expendable process,
731
00:36:05.599 --> 00:36:06.360
they would use it.
732
00:36:06.440 --> 00:36:09.000
Oh yeah, no doubt or like that.
733
00:36:09.320 --> 00:36:12.679
Uh it's like for Futurama or like some other future
734
00:36:12.880 --> 00:36:15.199
movies where it's like they keep your brain in a
735
00:36:15.320 --> 00:36:18.119
jar and that way you can like somehow like later
736
00:36:18.159 --> 00:36:20.360
in the future, like bring yourself back.
737
00:36:20.519 --> 00:36:22.559
I'm I don't get me wrong, I'm coming for Walt
738
00:36:22.599 --> 00:36:29.159
Disney's head. But yeah, it's in that show too. I
739
00:36:29.199 --> 00:36:30.960
think a lot of people said that the reason why
740
00:36:31.000 --> 00:36:33.159
this is a stupid as conspiracy, but the reason why
741
00:36:33.159 --> 00:36:33.960
Walt Disney.
742
00:36:33.760 --> 00:36:34.840
I love a good conspiracy.
743
00:36:34.960 --> 00:36:37.760
Walt Disney made the Walt Disney made the movie Frozen.
744
00:36:38.039 --> 00:36:41.000
That's how you know that that's stupid bullshit is that
745
00:36:41.079 --> 00:36:44.199
they're like or Disney made Frozen. So if you looked
746
00:36:44.280 --> 00:36:47.199
up Disney Frozen, that a frozen head wouldn't come up,
747
00:36:48.039 --> 00:36:49.760
and it said that the movie Frozen would come up.
748
00:36:50.079 --> 00:36:54.639
Smart They're good, no, and that's what they made the
749
00:36:54.679 --> 00:36:58.000
second Frozen movie. Because now we know not Disney, not
750
00:36:58.079 --> 00:36:59.840
Disney Frozen, Disney Frozen too.
751
00:37:00.000 --> 00:37:01.960
I'm gonna call it Frozen head to head in the
752
00:37:02.000 --> 00:37:02.519
third one.
753
00:37:03.199 --> 00:37:08.800
Can I get Disney Frozen head to head? No?
754
00:37:09.719 --> 00:37:12.320
But no, I guess I don't necessarily have any negatives
755
00:37:12.360 --> 00:37:13.960
with this outside of the fact that I guess I
756
00:37:14.000 --> 00:37:17.639
was just sort of like, but honestly, I've just been
757
00:37:17.679 --> 00:37:20.280
sort of debating my score for like two days now,
758
00:37:20.440 --> 00:37:21.360
just because I was kind of.
759
00:37:21.280 --> 00:37:23.519
Like, I just saw this movie today. Guys, Yeah, I
760
00:37:23.559 --> 00:37:26.519
kind of want to I want to do it. Oh wait,
761
00:37:26.519 --> 00:37:27.079
I'm gonna go first.
762
00:37:27.199 --> 00:37:30.159
Yeah, let me ask you for what's your score? Yeah,
763
00:37:31.280 --> 00:37:34.840
So that was my initial reaction. I am going to
764
00:37:34.880 --> 00:37:37.239
watch it again just because this is a movie I
765
00:37:37.239 --> 00:37:41.320
do want to watch again. It's one of the remember
766
00:37:41.320 --> 00:37:42.920
our Kinds of Kindness review. I was like four and
767
00:37:42.960 --> 00:37:44.719
a half, but I would give this a five out
768
00:37:44.719 --> 00:37:47.320
of five if I watch it again. I think I'm
769
00:37:47.360 --> 00:37:49.519
gonna do the same thing. I think I'm going to
770
00:37:50.800 --> 00:37:53.639
put four and a half out of five, but I
771
00:37:53.679 --> 00:37:55.119
want to give this a five out of five.
772
00:37:55.159 --> 00:37:55.920
Really bad way.
773
00:37:56.639 --> 00:37:59.079
If we somehow come back to this at the end
774
00:37:59.119 --> 00:38:00.880
of the year and it's on like it's it's March,
775
00:38:00.880 --> 00:38:03.920
you know it's early, but I will clarify after I've
776
00:38:03.960 --> 00:38:06.119
seen it again if that changes at all.
777
00:38:06.159 --> 00:38:10.079
Mickey, seventeen will be the next Doune too. It is March.
778
00:38:10.159 --> 00:38:12.199
Yeah, they came out less March, but yeah, we thought
779
00:38:12.239 --> 00:38:16.639
this was amazing. I'm gonna just address really quick likens
780
00:38:16.840 --> 00:38:19.559
people some of the negatives, people that it was too slow,
781
00:38:19.599 --> 00:38:21.920
a little too long, But I guess if you don't
782
00:38:21.960 --> 00:38:23.079
find the world.
783
00:38:22.880 --> 00:38:24.960
Building, I don't know, that's what That's what made the
784
00:38:25.000 --> 00:38:27.559
movie so interesting to me too. It was just the fact,
785
00:38:27.719 --> 00:38:30.639
like just the characters and like the world, the world
786
00:38:30.719 --> 00:38:33.159
itself was just more than enough interesting and.
787
00:38:33.119 --> 00:38:36.800
You're so interested, like even just looking at the backgrounds
788
00:38:36.840 --> 00:38:40.679
alone when they're walking through the snowstorm or whatever it is.
789
00:38:40.719 --> 00:38:43.880
It's so visually dynamic and interesting that you, like, I
790
00:38:43.960 --> 00:38:45.639
want it to be in that world. This is a
791
00:38:45.760 --> 00:38:48.039
very long movie. I wouldn't cut any of.
792
00:38:47.960 --> 00:38:49.880
Those creatures look like mammoths.
793
00:38:50.079 --> 00:38:55.880
They look like a competition, Yeah, of that, and then
794
00:38:56.000 --> 00:38:58.639
like roly Polis or something like that. Yeah, they kind
795
00:38:58.639 --> 00:39:01.159
of look like have like a bug hybrid looking thing.
796
00:39:01.800 --> 00:39:07.199
They're both adorable and kind of ugly. But I'm sorry,
797
00:39:09.400 --> 00:39:12.840
and I just that they thought it was about too
798
00:39:12.920 --> 00:39:14.719
much or about nothing at all, because it was about
799
00:39:14.719 --> 00:39:16.920
a bunch of stuff, which it's kind of asked the
800
00:39:17.000 --> 00:39:18.880
question of, I mean, is it okay to make a
801
00:39:18.920 --> 00:39:20.280
movie about more than one thing?
802
00:39:20.519 --> 00:39:22.719
I feel like it is. What do you mean the
803
00:39:22.760 --> 00:39:23.239
same theme?
804
00:39:23.519 --> 00:39:26.079
Like sometimes I feel like a lot of the movies
805
00:39:26.119 --> 00:39:29.840
we've seen lately have one singular theme and that's it.
806
00:39:29.920 --> 00:39:32.199
Like I'm just saying this, I do love this movie.
807
00:39:32.199 --> 00:39:37.719
Campaign Oh, clearly was about one thing, and then I
808
00:39:37.719 --> 00:39:39.840
feel like it's okay to navigate being.
809
00:39:39.639 --> 00:39:40.719
About a bunch of stuff. Oh.
810
00:39:40.800 --> 00:39:42.719
Absolutely, you just got to make sure you're not, you know,
811
00:39:42.760 --> 00:39:46.960
a mess. Some people also thought that it was totally messy,
812
00:39:47.039 --> 00:39:50.519
which I it's a high wire act for sure.
813
00:39:50.440 --> 00:39:52.440
I think because they didn't know whether to laugh or not.
814
00:39:53.760 --> 00:39:56.760
I think it's because we aren't really challenged by comedy
815
00:39:56.800 --> 00:40:00.400
that much anymore, Like dark comedies don't come out that much,
816
00:40:00.599 --> 00:40:00.880
or just.
817
00:40:00.840 --> 00:40:01.760
Comedies in general.
818
00:40:01.880 --> 00:40:04.280
Yeah, it don't really come out to a certain extent.
819
00:40:04.360 --> 00:40:06.840
Like I feel like even during when I saw A Companion,
820
00:40:06.880 --> 00:40:10.400
I got the same sort of similar vibe where I
821
00:40:10.400 --> 00:40:12.119
feel like some people were kind of scared to laugh
822
00:40:12.159 --> 00:40:12.480
at like.
823
00:40:12.519 --> 00:40:14.159
Things that were funny in that.
824
00:40:14.840 --> 00:40:18.840
But I think it was that's pretty much everything. Some
825
00:40:18.840 --> 00:40:21.519
people actually kind of didn't respond to Robert Pattinson in
826
00:40:21.519 --> 00:40:24.719
this movie, which I read a couple of times. I
827
00:40:24.719 --> 00:40:27.719
guess just because like I don't know, I don't agree
828
00:40:27.760 --> 00:40:28.280
with that at all.
829
00:40:28.519 --> 00:40:31.159
Yeah, clearly, I don't know. But I mean clearly he's
830
00:40:31.199 --> 00:40:34.800
definitely making or he's tackling like different roles.
831
00:40:35.039 --> 00:40:38.159
I will say though, a movie I love that he's
832
00:40:38.199 --> 00:40:39.960
in and I think he's amazing in is to the
833
00:40:40.000 --> 00:40:42.599
Devil All the Time, and that was a similar thing
834
00:40:42.719 --> 00:40:46.360
that was so long ago, twenty nineteen, I think. But
835
00:40:46.519 --> 00:40:49.320
he's going for broken that like he is over the top,
836
00:40:49.360 --> 00:40:51.079
but he's also supposed to be over the top.
837
00:40:51.119 --> 00:40:51.719
He's kind of.
838
00:40:51.880 --> 00:40:58.760
Playing like a scheming, like just fake personae through a performance.
839
00:40:59.559 --> 00:41:04.679
But that's about everything I believe. And us though we
840
00:41:04.760 --> 00:41:08.960
love this a lot and I read it's not doing
841
00:41:09.000 --> 00:41:10.280
too well, but that's okay.
842
00:41:10.440 --> 00:41:12.880
No, It's one of those things where I never thought
843
00:41:12.880 --> 00:41:15.199
it would have I actually did kind of see it
844
00:41:15.760 --> 00:41:16.920
had that budget though.
845
00:41:17.239 --> 00:41:20.679
I had a huge budget. So even though WB fucks
846
00:41:20.760 --> 00:41:22.719
up a lot, I respect that they made this.
847
00:41:23.480 --> 00:41:24.079
Keep it coming.
848
00:41:24.840 --> 00:41:28.079
Hey, at least they released a movie that was actually good. Yeah,
849
00:41:28.320 --> 00:41:31.000
but it's failing, which sucks, but it's a good movie.
850
00:41:31.079 --> 00:41:33.199
Then they might learn the wrong lesson from that, but
851
00:41:33.559 --> 00:41:37.039
we'll see. He bun junho gets to do whatever he
852
00:41:37.079 --> 00:41:39.679
wants though, really like he has the credibility for it.
853
00:41:39.840 --> 00:41:41.320
If they don't let him make another movie in the
854
00:41:41.400 --> 00:41:43.280
US again, they definitely will in Korea.
855
00:41:43.679 --> 00:41:47.280
Yeah. But overall, yeah, this was incredible. I felt like
856
00:41:47.360 --> 00:41:50.599
I love this a lot and you too. Yeah, what's
857
00:41:50.679 --> 00:41:58.360
up next? Opus? And and one more thing, The Electric State?
858
00:41:58.440 --> 00:42:01.400
The Electric State? I forget the don't are you excited
859
00:42:01.400 --> 00:42:03.639
for these? I didn't find out about Electric two until
860
00:42:03.639 --> 00:42:04.199
two weeks ago.
861
00:42:04.400 --> 00:42:06.159
Oh really, Yeah, I was like, what is this with me?
862
00:42:07.159 --> 00:42:09.840
In It's one of the most expensive Netflix movies ever.
863
00:42:09.960 --> 00:42:12.800
Yeah, I hear it's just one of the highest grossing
864
00:42:12.920 --> 00:42:16.039
or like one of those like high budgeted movies in
865
00:42:16.119 --> 00:42:16.719
a long time.
866
00:42:16.840 --> 00:42:20.519
So we'll see how that one goes. I've heard I've
867
00:42:20.559 --> 00:42:23.840
heard interesting things about all three. Do you say interesting things? Oh,
868
00:42:23.880 --> 00:42:26.599
they're all Wait what about I've heard Nova Kane is great,
869
00:42:27.039 --> 00:42:29.440
I've heard Opus is not too good, and I've heard
870
00:42:29.599 --> 00:42:35.639
that The Electric State is horrible. Yeah, don't don't get
871
00:42:35.719 --> 00:42:38.679
us wrong. We have gone on record about sometimes critically
872
00:42:38.679 --> 00:42:41.719

873
00:42:41.800 --> 00:42:43.639
So you know it is what it is about.
874
