out of the bar with after a long discussion of movies.

27
00:01:32.719 --> 00:01:37.840
like somebody's trying to dial in. Also joining him is
28
00:01:37.879 --> 00:01:40.719

football wordsmith, budding sports talk radio star, mister Stony Gey. Whoo,
31
00:01:50.200 --> 00:01:52.519
I thought Santa was calling there for a second, I
32
00:01:52.519 --> 00:01:53.359
almost picked up.
33
00:01:53.680 --> 00:01:55.799
Now that was the intro to masterpiece.
34
00:01:55.879 --> 00:02:00.239
Make him say uh uhh, no, no, no, no, And
35
00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:01.799
how are we doing today? Holidays?
36
00:02:01.879 --> 00:02:05.719
Pretty good? Happy Holidays. It's it's my favorite time of year.
37
00:02:05.760 --> 00:02:10.599
I was just I brought Spotify up because and our
38
00:02:10.639 --> 00:02:13.400
listeners won't have heard that. That's only for us through
39
00:02:13.439 --> 00:02:14.479
our headphones to have heard.
40
00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:15.759
That's a shame. That's a shame.
41
00:02:16.080 --> 00:02:20.840
But I wanted to bring up Spotify because this is
42
00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:23.520
I wanted to look through our episodes for the year
43
00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:26.599
so far. I feel like this has been a really
44
00:02:26.599 --> 00:02:29.599
good year of drinking with. I'm really excited to talk
45
00:02:29.639 --> 00:02:32.319
about the movie we're going to talk about today, but
46
00:02:32.439 --> 00:02:39.560
we have talked about some of my favorite movies in
47
00:02:39.639 --> 00:02:42.120
a time in my life two thousand and fours, when
48
00:02:42.120 --> 00:02:48.400
I graduated high school, growing into an adult, going into college,
49
00:02:48.479 --> 00:02:51.639
all that stuff. To really reflect upon this time in
50
00:02:51.680 --> 00:02:54.400
my life through the lens of these films that we've
51
00:02:54.439 --> 00:02:58.080
discussed this year has been really nice. It's been one
52
00:02:58.120 --> 00:03:00.879
of my favorite seasons of drinking with that we've done yet.
53
00:03:00.919 --> 00:03:06.000
Starting with Collateral, we did The Incredibles, Napoleon, Dynamite, Eternal
54
00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:09.919
Sunshine of the Spotless, Mind Club, Dread. For me, it's
55
00:03:09.919 --> 00:03:11.759
been a it's been a great year, and I'm excited
56
00:03:11.800 --> 00:03:14.319
to wrap it up with the one we're talking about today.
57
00:03:14.759 --> 00:03:16.360
Yeah, I don't think I've hated that many.
58
00:03:16.719 --> 00:03:18.520
There's a couple of stinkers for me.
59
00:03:19.159 --> 00:03:20.120
What were your stinkers?
60
00:03:20.759 --> 00:03:21.240
Hell Boy?
61
00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:22.919
I see, I loved hell Boy.
62
00:03:26.319 --> 00:03:30.159
This one. Gosh Boy, if you.
63
00:03:30.199 --> 00:03:33.240
Weren't the host Kill Bill Volume two didn't really do
64
00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:33.759
it for me.
65
00:03:33.919 --> 00:03:34.800
That's my other one.
66
00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:38.919
I was a little oh yeah, I remember not being
67
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:41.759
as high on mean girls watching it this time.
68
00:03:41.800 --> 00:03:42.000
Yeah.
69
00:03:42.039 --> 00:03:43.479
I didn't hate it though, but yeah.
70
00:03:43.719 --> 00:03:45.240
And Napoleon Dynamite too.
71
00:03:45.520 --> 00:03:47.120
Yeah, yeah, a little bit of that too.
72
00:03:47.719 --> 00:03:49.039
Hater's gonna hate, hate hate.
73
00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:51.000
I always feel like Stony and I mainly for the
74
00:03:51.039 --> 00:03:54.599
most part, basically fall somewhere within the same.
75
00:03:56.400 --> 00:03:59.360
I watched Million Dollar Baby for the first time classes
76
00:03:59.400 --> 00:03:59.879
of this show.
77
00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:02.360
That was a great movie. I'm happy we did that one.
78
00:04:02.680 --> 00:04:05.639
I told you guys, told you you know, they filmed
79
00:04:05.719 --> 00:04:07.159
Hillary Smanke's death first.
80
00:04:07.599 --> 00:04:12.719
Is that? Uh? And then the saw.
81
00:04:13.319 --> 00:04:15.400
Yeah stream this year.
82
00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:19.680
Yeah, so, uh, let's let's go out with a bang.
83
00:04:19.839 --> 00:04:25.279
I guess for it is which would normally be a
84
00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:30.319
recipe for greatness, and some it is to some it
85
00:04:30.399 --> 00:04:33.040
is to some not so much. But we're talking about
86
00:04:33.079 --> 00:04:35.879
The Terminal. And I'm taking this straight from im dB
87
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:38.399
because I didn't want to put enough effort into coming
88
00:04:38.480 --> 00:04:40.560
up with a description for this film.
89
00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:41.360
Uh.
90
00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:44.839
The Terminal is about an Eastern European tourist unexpectedly finds
91
00:04:44.920 --> 00:04:49.319
himself stranded at JFK Airport and must take up temporary
92
00:04:49.360 --> 00:04:52.920
residents here. This is somewhat based on a true story,
93
00:04:52.920 --> 00:04:55.920
which we'll get into really deeply. Oh you didn't know.
94
00:04:56.040 --> 00:04:58.639
I did not know that. Oh yeah, it's completely different
95
00:04:58.639 --> 00:05:01.000
from the fucking film the I think the true story
96
00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:01.680
would have been better.
97
00:05:01.920 --> 00:05:02.560
Oh you think so.
98
00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:04.439
I think the true story would have made a better film.
99
00:05:04.480 --> 00:05:05.560
Is he stuck in an airport?
100
00:05:05.879 --> 00:05:07.600
Yeah? For eighteen years?
101
00:05:07.920 --> 00:05:09.959
Oh yeah, God.
102
00:05:09.959 --> 00:05:11.399
I can't believe you don't know this. Now, this is
103
00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:11.920
gonna be fun.
104
00:05:12.199 --> 00:05:14.800
Well, let me tell you this. That movie certainly would
105
00:05:14.839 --> 00:05:16.160
be over seventy hours.
106
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:20.720
Yeah, but that's before the Snyder cut comes out. Yeah.
107
00:05:20.800 --> 00:05:22.639
Oh yeah, to shame to Shae.
108
00:05:23.240 --> 00:05:25.959
Terminals directed, as we said, by Steven Spielberg. I'm not
109
00:05:25.959 --> 00:05:29.040
gonna list his credits because we all know them. I
110
00:05:29.079 --> 00:05:31.000
did watch one of his movies for the first time
111
00:05:31.040 --> 00:05:32.360
this year, and that was Jaws.
112
00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:35.360
I guess didn't like that one either.
113
00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:38.560
I get why people love it so much, but it's
114
00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:40.800
it's long and slow and boring.
115
00:05:42.240 --> 00:05:43.879
I really liked it fifty years this year.
116
00:05:44.519 --> 00:05:47.240
That's the reason why I watched it. Yeah. The Terminal
117
00:05:47.279 --> 00:05:51.879
was written by Andrew Nicole, who did Gatica, The Truman
118
00:05:51.959 --> 00:05:54.560
Show and the upcoming Monopoly movie.
119
00:05:56.160 --> 00:05:58.399
Is that Monopoly the movie ever gonna get made?
120
00:05:58.480 --> 00:05:59.879
It says it's in pre production.
121
00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:02.879
According to State they've been talking about that one for
122
00:06:02.920 --> 00:06:04.480
a while though, or am I crazy?
123
00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:05.439
No, You're not crazy.
124
00:06:05.639 --> 00:06:09.480
No, there's been I think it's changed hands a couple
125
00:06:09.519 --> 00:06:10.120
of times, but.
126
00:06:10.160 --> 00:06:11.519
Yeah, and it may change again.
127
00:06:11.600 --> 00:06:14.120
Yeah, I was all the time, maybe before the people
128
00:06:14.160 --> 00:06:14.519
hear this.
129
00:06:14.639 --> 00:06:17.759
It was co written by Sasha Gervasi, who I his
130
00:06:17.959 --> 00:06:20.680
credits really didn't have anything to go with it. And
131
00:06:20.720 --> 00:06:23.560
then Jeff Nathanson who did Catch Me if you can,
132
00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:29.160
the live action Lion King and Mufassa Lion King. So
133
00:06:29.279 --> 00:06:30.600
his movies have made some money.
134
00:06:30.680 --> 00:06:31.480
They've made some money.
135
00:06:31.480 --> 00:06:32.480
That's money.
136
00:06:32.560 --> 00:06:35.879
Yeah, let's go to the cast real quick. We got
137
00:06:35.920 --> 00:06:38.800
Tom Hanks, as we talked about, who plays Victor. Chie
138
00:06:38.839 --> 00:06:42.240
McBride plays Moulroy, who was from Gone in sixty Seconds
139
00:06:42.399 --> 00:06:45.519
and Waiting and I Robots. I just think of him
140
00:06:45.560 --> 00:06:48.639
as a cop in everything he plays, but obviously he's
141
00:06:48.639 --> 00:06:49.480
played a lot more things.
142
00:06:49.480 --> 00:06:52.240
What did he play I'm not looking at his and Waiting.
143
00:06:52.439 --> 00:06:55.839
Oh, he played Moulroy. He bigger black guy. He's one
144
00:06:55.879 --> 00:06:59.079
of the luggage guys. I think was his character, Ye
145
00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:03.439
Do You Diego? Luna very young as Enrique, he was
146
00:07:03.439 --> 00:07:08.079
intah you two, Mama Tombien, who we reviewed Here Milk
147
00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:11.639
and If Bill Street could Talk. And then Stanley Tucci
148
00:07:11.720 --> 00:07:13.839
is Frank. This is a Stanley Tucci like you've never
149
00:07:13.839 --> 00:07:14.519
seen him before.
150
00:07:15.160 --> 00:07:17.360
I liked him, liked him in this film.
151
00:07:17.639 --> 00:07:21.639
And then uh, Catherine Zada Jones as Amelia. And then
152
00:07:21.800 --> 00:07:25.240
rounding out the cast is a young Zoey's Aldonna as Dolores,
153
00:07:25.279 --> 00:07:30.600
who you know from classics like Crossroads, drum Line, Dirty Deeds.
154
00:07:31.680 --> 00:07:37.360
Zoe Saldana and Diego Luna were both surprises watching this again.
155
00:07:37.519 --> 00:07:40.360
I did not obviously didn't know who they were at
156
00:07:40.360 --> 00:07:41.800
the time, but and.
157
00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:43.920
Their storyline is one of the biggest issues I have
158
00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:45.160
with this film.
159
00:07:45.160 --> 00:07:48.360
Okay, but it was. It was kind of Uh. I
160
00:07:48.399 --> 00:07:50.759
always like when we go back and watch movies like
161
00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:55.360
this and it's like, oh, yeah, that person, familiar face,
162
00:07:56.519 --> 00:07:59.480
think about what they would become.
163
00:08:00.199 --> 00:08:03.360
Yeah, which Diego Luna is, He's an and or right?
164
00:08:03.560 --> 00:08:03.720
Yeah?
165
00:08:04.759 --> 00:08:08.639
And I mean Zoe just won an oscar for Heaven's sake. Yeah,
166
00:08:08.759 --> 00:08:10.720
for a movie that's not very good, but whatever.
167
00:08:11.439 --> 00:08:15.920
Which one was hers Amelia Perez?
168
00:08:16.079 --> 00:08:19.000
Yes, yeah, I remember.
169
00:08:19.959 --> 00:08:22.759
Uh. So we're drinking today. It's a holiday season. I
170
00:08:22.800 --> 00:08:25.079
think we need a drink and this this one kind
171
00:08:25.079 --> 00:08:29.639
of gives me some some holiday vibes. It's called the
172
00:08:29.759 --> 00:08:33.480
cru Kochian Layover? Did I say the country's name? C
173
00:08:33.559 --> 00:08:36.960
Crosion Layover. You need an ounce and a half of vodka,
174
00:08:37.279 --> 00:08:39.960
three quarter ounce of driver Muth, a half ounce of
175
00:08:40.039 --> 00:08:43.000
cherry liqueur, and a half ounce of lemon juice with
176
00:08:43.039 --> 00:08:46.000
some club soda, little lemon twist for a garnish later.
177
00:08:46.039 --> 00:08:47.720
But what you're gonna do is you're gonna shake the vodka,
178
00:08:47.759 --> 00:08:50.440
the Vermuth, the cherry liqueur, and the lemon juice with
179
00:08:50.519 --> 00:08:53.600
ice straight into a chilled glass over fresh eyes and
180
00:08:53.639 --> 00:08:56.039
the top with club soda and garnish with your limit
181
00:08:56.080 --> 00:08:57.720
twist about that?
182
00:08:58.080 --> 00:09:00.360
Yeah, refreshing holidays.
183
00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:01.919
Rushing and a little bit festive.
184
00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:04.360
Yes, yes, I'm with you. I like that, all right,
185
00:09:05.159 --> 00:09:08.399
So we're gonna jump right in. We got time to waste.
186
00:09:08.480 --> 00:09:11.159
It's it's almost New Year's, almost Christmas time, so let's
187
00:09:11.159 --> 00:09:13.240
talk money. Don't have a lot of it this time
188
00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:14.840
of the year, because I'm buying presents.
189
00:09:14.519 --> 00:09:15.679
Left and right exactly.
190
00:09:16.000 --> 00:09:18.440
But this is this is a Spilberg film. Oh yeah,
191
00:09:18.480 --> 00:09:21.200
this is really gonna suck this year. Being a Spilberg's film,
192
00:09:21.200 --> 00:09:23.600
A Tom Hanks film. There's a lot of money going
193
00:09:23.600 --> 00:09:25.759
to those two names right there. What do we feel
194
00:09:25.759 --> 00:09:27.840
the budget for the Terminal is?
195
00:09:29.159 --> 00:09:32.159
Well, I saw it by accident when I was looking
196
00:09:32.159 --> 00:09:35.480
at the Terminal's Wikipedia page. So I'm gonna abstain. We'll
197
00:09:35.519 --> 00:09:37.039
just let Brandon play this game.
198
00:09:37.240 --> 00:09:42.399
Does it start with a six? I'm this is a
199
00:09:42.399 --> 00:09:43.200
game I'm going to play.
200
00:09:43.559 --> 00:09:45.399
We're not playing this game because.
201
00:09:45.159 --> 00:09:49.240
I'm getting sleepy. I don't know. I mean, it's it's
202
00:09:49.240 --> 00:09:54.559
not a big budget like you know, Minority Report.
203
00:09:54.919 --> 00:09:58.519
You wouldn't think like special effects, c GI budgets, stuff
204
00:09:58.559 --> 00:10:01.559
like that, like exotic locations.
205
00:10:00.840 --> 00:10:03.000
And I feel like he did it on that sort
206
00:10:03.000 --> 00:10:09.559
of a deal for a Spielberg. I'm going to say
207
00:10:10.120 --> 00:10:10.720
forty one.
208
00:10:12.159 --> 00:10:16.320
Well, where you were headed originally pretty much spot on.
209
00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:19.919
It was sixty million, was damn it? And I know
210
00:10:19.960 --> 00:10:23.360
where this money went and we'll get to that. But
211
00:10:24.639 --> 00:10:28.200
was this movie a success? So let's talk box office?
212
00:10:28.200 --> 00:10:29.879
Did you see box office as well?
213
00:10:30.080 --> 00:10:30.399
I did?
214
00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:35.080
God damn it. Wow, this is gonna be a quick episode. Yeah.
215
00:10:35.320 --> 00:10:40.200
Us Accident us Canada opening weekend. This opened June eighteenth,
216
00:10:40.200 --> 00:10:43.960
two thousand and four, on twenty eight hundred screens. It
217
00:10:44.000 --> 00:10:48.080
opened alongside Dodgeball and around the world in eighty days.
218
00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:50.679
I will tell you right now it did not debut
219
00:10:50.679 --> 00:10:51.279
at number one.
220
00:10:51.519 --> 00:10:54.600
No, I don't remember this really being a moneymaker, to
221
00:10:54.639 --> 00:10:57.480
be honest, So I feel like it was just kind
222
00:10:57.480 --> 00:11:00.720
of went on by Get why this is there. But
223
00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:04.639
I'm going to say opening weekend.
224
00:11:04.360 --> 00:11:14.720
Opening weekend. I'm going to say in the summer, dudee, I.
225
00:11:14.639 --> 00:11:19.480
Know, I'm so nervous. I am going to say eleven million.
226
00:11:19.639 --> 00:11:23.440
Eleven million. Uh, you didn't give it enough credit. Nineteen million.
227
00:11:23.559 --> 00:11:25.559
Really, I did not think it was close to twenty.
228
00:11:25.720 --> 00:11:28.600
So your top five that weekend Garfield the movie at
229
00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:34.159
number five? Sure, Shrek two, Oh for Giant Yep, Harry
230
00:11:34.200 --> 00:11:38.159
Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban a number three, Number
231
00:11:38.159 --> 00:11:40.799
two was The Terminal and number one Dodgeball A true
232
00:11:40.879 --> 00:11:41.799
underdog story.
233
00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:43.000
Oh wow, what.
234
00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:45.320
Has finally dropped out of the top five after months
235
00:11:45.320 --> 00:11:47.759
and months passion of the Christine.
236
00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:50.519
Wow, but we still got to mention it in this episode. Yeah,
237
00:11:50.559 --> 00:11:51.399
but we still thank it.
238
00:11:52.039 --> 00:11:55.840
Your total domestic box office for this was seventy seven
239
00:11:55.960 --> 00:12:00.279
point eight million dollars, so it made us budget and
240
00:12:00.279 --> 00:12:04.559
then worldwide the world loved this film. They love Tom
241
00:12:04.559 --> 00:12:07.600
Hanks two hundred and nineteen million dollars.
242
00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:07.799
You go.
243
00:12:08.159 --> 00:12:11.639
That is that surprised me because I've always considered this
244
00:12:11.679 --> 00:12:14.120
to be like to what Brandon was talking about earlier,
245
00:12:14.240 --> 00:12:20.080
like really underrated Tom Hanks, really underrated Steven Spielberg, And
246
00:12:20.159 --> 00:12:22.759
I would have thought that this movie wouldn't have even
247
00:12:22.799 --> 00:12:24.000
made a hundred million.
248
00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:30.879
Yeah, I know, but international is key, like China for instance,
249
00:12:30.919 --> 00:12:32.240
So I love there Tom Hanks.
250
00:12:32.399 --> 00:12:36.320
Well, Japan was the biggest, the biggest winner, bringing in
251
00:12:36.480 --> 00:12:39.960
just under forty million. There you go, Japan, Germany just
252
00:12:40.080 --> 00:12:44.759
under fourteen million, and then our friends in Bulgaria fifty
253
00:12:44.879 --> 00:12:45.879
nine thousand.
254
00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:48.519
Bulgaria came out in droves.
255
00:12:48.840 --> 00:12:52.840
But the country that didn't really come out in droves
256
00:12:52.879 --> 00:12:55.639
but still had I think respectable for the country itself
257
00:12:55.759 --> 00:12:58.799
is Kenya at just thirty one thousand dollars.
258
00:12:58.960 --> 00:13:01.399
How about that out? Where did Krakosia?
259
00:13:01.759 --> 00:13:03.759
Yeah, well Krakosa is not real?
260
00:13:04.200 --> 00:13:05.679
No what for?
261
00:13:05.879 --> 00:13:09.440
First of all, Krakosia is not a real country. What yeah,
262
00:13:09.639 --> 00:13:13.039
you heard it here first twenty one years just like
263
00:13:13.120 --> 00:13:15.519
that fucking accident did not.
264
00:13:15.879 --> 00:13:18.919
Actually I'm gonna go that, I'm gonna fact check you
265
00:13:19.000 --> 00:13:19.320
on that.
266
00:13:19.559 --> 00:13:21.519
I just felt a hot desert willing to come out
267
00:13:21.519 --> 00:13:21.639
of that.
268
00:13:22.200 --> 00:13:25.240
Well that was this movie was filmed in the Mohabi desert,
269
00:13:25.279 --> 00:13:26.360
so it's very possible that.
270
00:13:26.639 --> 00:13:29.759
Oh well, thank you for connecting.
271
00:13:29.360 --> 00:13:31.080
That Creakosia on a map.
272
00:13:31.240 --> 00:13:36.039
God bless, I mean too well, you're trying to decide
273
00:13:36.120 --> 00:13:39.080
if I'm if it's true or not that Crocasia is
274
00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:43.840
a real country. Let's talk about rotten other rotten things
275
00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:46.080
in this room, and that's the tomatoes.
276
00:13:46.879 --> 00:13:53.440
So, oh my god, oh my god. Krekosia is a
277
00:13:53.519 --> 00:13:57.519
fictional country no sh created for the film that closely
278
00:13:57.600 --> 00:14:03.200
resembles a former Soviet republic. Yeah, I cannot believe for
279
00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:04.759
twenty one years.
280
00:14:06.480 --> 00:14:08.000
Did you ever think to look for it on the
281
00:14:08.039 --> 00:14:11.399
mast or why you've never heard of it since or before.
282
00:14:11.679 --> 00:14:14.919
I'm just fucking with you, guys, I know you're just
283
00:14:15.639 --> 00:14:16.679
I thought that took a.
284
00:14:16.639 --> 00:14:19.720
Turn, Nona. No, I was gonna let that.
285
00:14:19.639 --> 00:14:22.000
Bet run all the way, Okay, I should.
286
00:14:22.399 --> 00:14:23.639
I was going to reveal ship.
287
00:14:23.799 --> 00:14:24.919
I was a little pretty.
288
00:14:24.679 --> 00:14:26.120
Who are you just revealed ship?
289
00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:29.360
That is?
290
00:14:29.879 --> 00:14:33.039
You don't have smell a vision on your podcast streams,
291
00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:35.240
but god, if you did, you'd probably wreck your car by.
292
00:14:35.159 --> 00:14:38.919
Now, well, he just ate some lunch and it's the
293
00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:41.759
third episode of the day, so we shouldn't expects.
294
00:14:42.120 --> 00:14:44.440
We're trying to push the rest back in, but it
295
00:14:44.440 --> 00:14:45.039
ain't working.
296
00:14:46.039 --> 00:14:48.159
It ain't. You're pushing on the wrong part of the body.
297
00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:48.480
Buddy.
298
00:14:48.799 --> 00:14:51.879
Let's talk. Let's talk rotten tomatoes. We've got two hundred
299
00:14:51.919 --> 00:14:55.440
and eight reviews for the media, So what do we
300
00:14:55.519 --> 00:14:58.559
think the Terminal sits.
301
00:14:59.440 --> 00:15:04.399
Seventy seventy five. That smells so fucking bad. I didn't
302
00:15:04.440 --> 00:15:06.720
realize what it was good Jesus man.
303
00:15:06.600 --> 00:15:10.360
Well, you both think more highly of the Terminal than
304
00:15:10.399 --> 00:15:12.960
I do, and the media does sixty one percent.
305
00:15:13.120 --> 00:15:14.080
That's embarrassing.
306
00:15:14.720 --> 00:15:16.080
It's about right us.
307
00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:18.720
The critics should be embarrassed of themselves for that.
308
00:15:19.679 --> 00:15:21.240
Did they watch this same movie?
309
00:15:21.360 --> 00:15:23.480
They watched the same one I did. That's for sure.
310
00:15:23.480 --> 00:15:25.440
Hand just insane.
311
00:15:25.960 --> 00:15:28.960
The popcorn meter, the average Joe, Yeah, two hundred and
312
00:15:29.000 --> 00:15:33.000
fifty thousand plus reviews, higher or lower? What are we thinking?
313
00:15:34.240 --> 00:15:35.159
I think it's higher.
314
00:15:35.519 --> 00:15:37.960
I don't know. I'm I think it's higher, not.
315
00:15:37.919 --> 00:15:39.279
By a lot. I'm not saying it's in the I
316
00:15:39.320 --> 00:15:41.200
don't even know if it's in the seventies.
317
00:15:40.759 --> 00:15:42.360
I'm gonna say sixty four percent.
318
00:15:42.679 --> 00:15:43.960
I'm gonna say sixty seven.
319
00:15:45.039 --> 00:15:47.440
They liked it more than you think they did, seventy
320
00:15:47.440 --> 00:15:47.919
three percent.
321
00:15:47.960 --> 00:15:49.360
That's right, you know why, Tom Hanks.
322
00:15:50.279 --> 00:15:53.080
I just it's such like it's such a sweet.
323
00:15:52.919 --> 00:15:53.679
Tender movie.
324
00:15:53.759 --> 00:15:57.320
Yes, I listen, I agree, we're gonna have to we're
325
00:15:57.320 --> 00:15:59.879
about to fight mcash as he tells us why and
326
00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:04.720
why he's wrong. But I just feel like it doesn't
327
00:16:04.759 --> 00:16:07.159
feel like a Spielberg movie. But I'm fine with it
328
00:16:07.840 --> 00:16:12.440
because it's sort of like it's It sort of gives
329
00:16:12.440 --> 00:16:16.080
me the feeling of Larry Crown. For anybody that hasn't
330
00:16:16.080 --> 00:16:18.360
seen that, that's a Tom Hanks Show Your Roberts movie,
331
00:16:19.080 --> 00:16:23.360
and Tom Hanks directed that one. But it just has
332
00:16:23.399 --> 00:16:29.120
this sweetness about it that like nothing like magical, nothing
333
00:16:29.159 --> 00:16:31.440
blows up. It's not that kind of movie. But it's
334
00:16:31.559 --> 00:16:36.240
just I feel like a time capsule of somebody, and
335
00:16:36.279 --> 00:16:38.279
it deals with what they're trying to do, which the
336
00:16:38.279 --> 00:16:41.080
whole mystery of the terminal was why does he even
337
00:16:41.279 --> 00:16:46.799
want to go to New York? When that's revealed? Again,
338
00:16:47.120 --> 00:16:51.919
very sweet, it just feels very genuine and it's a
339
00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:56.440
very generous in many ways. Not just from Tom Hanks's character,
340
00:16:56.480 --> 00:16:58.480
but the whole lot of them.
341
00:16:58.600 --> 00:17:01.919
Yeahs to me, I would describe it like this time
342
00:17:01.960 --> 00:17:05.799
of year. It kind of has the same cheery sort
343
00:17:05.839 --> 00:17:08.839
of feeling as a Christmas movie, But it's not a
344
00:17:08.920 --> 00:17:09.559
Christmas movie.
345
00:17:09.640 --> 00:17:12.160
Agreed, So take that.
346
00:17:14.200 --> 00:17:17.079
I wasn't paying Really, It's okay, I'm looking up some stuff.
347
00:17:17.599 --> 00:17:20.000
Let's see what people thought on letterbox because some people
348
00:17:20.039 --> 00:17:22.400
may have agreed with me, some may have agreed.
349
00:17:22.119 --> 00:17:24.079
With you, since you chose them. I'm sure.
350
00:17:24.319 --> 00:17:27.480
I'm just surprised to learn this is such a universally
351
00:17:27.640 --> 00:17:32.039
disliked film. Yeah, it's perfectly harmless.
352
00:17:33.000 --> 00:17:35.920
Maybe is that? Why did they want? Like a saving
353
00:17:35.960 --> 00:17:39.240
private Ryan in an airport? Like I don't understandn't know,
354
00:17:39.359 --> 00:17:41.920
I don't know. What did you want? What did you expect?
355
00:17:42.359 --> 00:17:43.359
It's called the terminal?
356
00:17:44.359 --> 00:17:46.160
It could have been. That doesn't mean anything could have
357
00:17:46.160 --> 00:17:51.160
been about cancer, that's true. Uh, Will on Letterbox gave
358
00:17:51.160 --> 00:17:55.079
it three stars. How could a guy who is living
359
00:17:55.119 --> 00:17:57.519
in an airport get a girl while I can't even
360
00:17:57.559 --> 00:17:58.640
get a text back.
361
00:18:00.319 --> 00:18:03.920
Because he's such a lovable right, But he also didn't
362
00:18:03.920 --> 00:18:04.799
get the girl in the end?
363
00:18:05.559 --> 00:18:06.440
Well he.
364
00:18:07.880 --> 00:18:12.119
He, I don't think he lost alt on her. Yeah, yeah,
365
00:18:12.960 --> 00:18:16.640
in that way that this sad SAP's talking about.
366
00:18:17.559 --> 00:18:20.240
Then there's Ginny who gave it five stars.
367
00:18:20.319 --> 00:18:20.920
Here we go.
368
00:18:21.839 --> 00:18:24.240
I hope that in one of my future lives, I
369
00:18:24.279 --> 00:18:27.200
am born into a universe in which people realize how
370
00:18:27.240 --> 00:18:28.240
good this film is.
371
00:18:28.680 --> 00:18:34.880
Yes, preach, preach, preach, preach justice. Justice for the term.
372
00:18:34.720 --> 00:18:37.240
I'm gonna bring it down to not Oh, here we go.
373
00:18:37.640 --> 00:18:41.440
Q y k x c Z sounds stupid.
374
00:18:41.440 --> 00:18:45.920
Already half a star. If anyone brings up this movie
375
00:18:45.920 --> 00:18:48.079
to me ever again, I'm pulling out a gun.
376
00:18:49.640 --> 00:18:51.160
God, I see why you didn't like that.
377
00:18:51.240 --> 00:18:53.079
You're ready to get it turned on you. But yeah,
378
00:18:53.240 --> 00:18:54.759
how fire it right into your skull.
379
00:18:54.839 --> 00:18:57.240
Yeah, let's kind of meet back, bite your throat, let's
380
00:18:57.240 --> 00:18:59.039
meet back in the middle. We're going to go with
381
00:18:59.079 --> 00:19:03.920
Bowden two and a half stars. Wonderful cinematography that you
382
00:19:03.960 --> 00:19:07.599
can expect from Spielberg and some top notch acting from
383
00:19:07.599 --> 00:19:10.359
Tom Hanks. I disagree about that part, but I don't
384
00:19:10.359 --> 00:19:14.680
know what the fuck I just watched? What?
385
00:19:14.680 --> 00:19:16.440
What are we? What are we doing here?
386
00:19:17.559 --> 00:19:18.119
What do you mean?
387
00:19:18.160 --> 00:19:19.319
He don't know what you watched?
388
00:19:19.680 --> 00:19:20.319
That's what he says.
389
00:19:20.319 --> 00:19:24.599
It's the It's such an easy, simple story.
390
00:19:25.480 --> 00:19:28.119
Man gets trapped in airport.
391
00:19:28.279 --> 00:19:30.640
There is a war going on. It's not that the
392
00:19:30.680 --> 00:19:32.319
doors are locked. He don't know how to get out.
393
00:19:33.160 --> 00:19:36.200
There's a war going on to Did you hear Stanley
394
00:19:36.200 --> 00:19:39.960
Tucci tell him in his office why he had to
395
00:19:40.200 --> 00:19:42.480
and he's trying to survive? And I think, do we
396
00:19:42.519 --> 00:19:45.599
miss the part why he goes through all of this?
397
00:19:46.480 --> 00:19:48.599
I'm not directing this at you. I'm directing this at
398
00:19:48.640 --> 00:19:48.839
the point.
399
00:19:48.920 --> 00:19:51.039
Who doesn't want Stanley or Tom Hanks's car?
400
00:19:51.240 --> 00:19:53.519
Tom Hanks? Why he's going through all of this to
401
00:19:53.680 --> 00:19:57.480
get into New York for this person? Are they missing
402
00:19:57.480 --> 00:19:58.160
the point for.
403
00:19:58.319 --> 00:20:03.200
A fucking autograph you could have bought on eBay? I'm sure,
404
00:20:03.200 --> 00:20:09.119
I'm sure. I'm sure Kuzakistan or whatever has.
405
00:20:07.640 --> 00:20:10.960
The whole point. Your answer to the terminal is he
406
00:20:11.079 --> 00:20:13.880
should have just bought the signature off eBay.
407
00:20:14.359 --> 00:20:19.160
It had been cheaper and got it quicker. I finally
408
00:20:19.319 --> 00:20:23.240
JJ three and a half stars. The main question for
409
00:20:23.319 --> 00:20:27.119
me is why why make it so cheesy? Why add
410
00:20:27.160 --> 00:20:30.680
a love interest, Why make him kind of stupid? Why
411
00:20:30.720 --> 00:20:34.319
cast Stanley Tucci as the villain, But mainly, with all
412
00:20:34.359 --> 00:20:36.240
of these, why does it kind of work.
413
00:20:38.079 --> 00:20:39.440
Why is he stupid?
414
00:20:39.880 --> 00:20:43.039
Yeah, I think I see how he came around at
415
00:20:43.079 --> 00:20:46.039
the end, but I'm still I guess I'm just lost
416
00:20:46.079 --> 00:20:51.039
in what why other people think this doesn't make.
417
00:20:51.640 --> 00:20:55.559
The beginning of the film, with the way Hanks portrays
418
00:20:55.599 --> 00:20:58.799
the character to me, kind of becomes its kind of
419
00:20:58.920 --> 00:21:02.079
buffoonish because oh, I don't know the language, so I'm
420
00:21:02.079 --> 00:21:06.160
just going to use this accent to get across, and
421
00:21:06.200 --> 00:21:08.680
it just I it takes me back to that show
422
00:21:08.680 --> 00:21:14.079
Perfect Strangers with the the TV show.
423
00:21:13.480 --> 00:21:14.519
I haven't watched either one.
424
00:21:14.640 --> 00:21:18.319
Yeah, Balki I think is the name of the character.
425
00:21:18.400 --> 00:21:21.240
And he's like from some European country and has a
426
00:21:21.240 --> 00:21:25.559
funny accent and that's the way he gets across because
427
00:21:25.559 --> 00:21:27.839
he doesn't speak the English language that well and whatnot.
428
00:21:28.119 --> 00:21:32.279
Just but I guess, Mike, I guess my question would be,
429
00:21:32.400 --> 00:21:35.960
then what does he do if he's from another country?
430
00:21:36.279 --> 00:21:39.200
Keep in mind, it's not a real country, So what
431
00:21:39.240 --> 00:21:39.799
do you like?
432
00:21:40.000 --> 00:21:42.680
What do you in this universe? It's a real country
433
00:21:42.880 --> 00:21:45.599
in the film, and you're in New York City of
434
00:21:45.839 --> 00:21:48.160
all the fucking places in the world to be, and
435
00:21:48.240 --> 00:21:50.720
you tell me within ten months that this movie takes place.
436
00:21:50.839 --> 00:21:55.400
You can't get a fucking translator to come in because
437
00:21:55.400 --> 00:21:57.640
the guy they're like, oh, we get a translator, but
438
00:21:57.640 --> 00:22:00.319
he's like two hours away. They even say that why
439
00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:01.519
the trans does never show up.
440
00:22:01.599 --> 00:22:04.240
It's busy. They're at JFK.
441
00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:07.119
The JFK that looks nothing like JFK. And we'll get
442
00:22:07.119 --> 00:22:09.279
into that because it actually looks like a real airport.
443
00:22:09.319 --> 00:22:13.640
Did I did have it? Where like when like, at
444
00:22:13.680 --> 00:22:15.920
what part of the airport do all the lights go
445
00:22:16.000 --> 00:22:19.319
out and there's no one there? And I'm like, is
446
00:22:19.359 --> 00:22:21.799
it just because he's in the restaurant portion of it,
447
00:22:22.400 --> 00:22:24.960
because you know, airport's ever sleep or he found it?
448
00:22:25.039 --> 00:22:26.640
So apparently New York doesn't either.
449
00:22:26.680 --> 00:22:29.279
He found the one part of the airport that's under renovation.
450
00:22:30.200 --> 00:22:33.519
Well, now that's listen, that's that's plausible.
451
00:22:34.079 --> 00:22:36.599
Okay, let's get in. Let's get into what this movie
452
00:22:36.680 --> 00:22:39.200
is really about or what it's inspired by. Insp inspired
453
00:22:39.240 --> 00:22:42.880
by the story of Moran Kareemi Nasari. He landed at
454
00:22:42.960 --> 00:22:45.839
Charles de Gaull Airport near Paris in nineteen eighty eight
455
00:22:46.680 --> 00:22:50.400
after being denied entry into England because his Iranian passport
456
00:22:50.440 --> 00:22:55.240
and United Nations refugee certificate had been stolen. French authorities
457
00:22:55.240 --> 00:22:57.359
wouldn't let him leave the airport, so he remained in
458
00:22:57.480 --> 00:23:00.480
Terminal one, as a stateless person would know where else
459
00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:03.920
to go. He was eventually granted permission to either enter
460
00:23:03.960 --> 00:23:07.119
France or returned to Iran, but he chose to live
461
00:23:07.119 --> 00:23:08.960
in the terminal and tell his story to anyone who
462
00:23:09.039 --> 00:23:13.039
had listened. Reportedly, his mental health deteriorated over the years,
463
00:23:13.079 --> 00:23:15.119
and when given the opportunity to live in France, who
464
00:23:15.160 --> 00:23:18.680
refused because the documents did not identify him as Sir
465
00:23:18.759 --> 00:23:21.920
Alfred and he claimed to have forgotten his native Persian
466
00:23:22.000 --> 00:23:25.720
Persian language. He left the terminal in August of two
467
00:23:25.759 --> 00:23:28.519
thousand and six to be hospitalized for an unspecified illness,
468
00:23:28.960 --> 00:23:31.640
and afterwards he lived in a hotel on the money
469
00:23:31.839 --> 00:23:34.680
he received from the film, which he got paid two
470
00:23:34.720 --> 00:23:37.160
hundred fifty thousand dollars for the rights. Because he wrote
471
00:23:37.160 --> 00:23:39.680
a book called The Terminal Man that you can read,
472
00:23:39.880 --> 00:23:41.279
Oh that tells you everything about it?
473
00:23:41.519 --> 00:23:43.359
Like that? Yeah, I think I would. I'm going to
474
00:23:43.440 --> 00:23:44.759
put that on my good Reads right now.
475
00:23:44.960 --> 00:23:47.640
There you go. He moved back to the Charles de
476
00:23:47.680 --> 00:23:51.079
Gaul airport in October of twenty two and then later
477
00:23:51.200 --> 00:23:53.440
died of a heart attack in Terminal to f on
478
00:23:53.519 --> 00:23:56.759
November twelve, twenty twenty two.
479
00:23:57.400 --> 00:23:59.559
Woh so he just passed away three years ago ago.
480
00:24:01.480 --> 00:24:02.400
Is based on a true.
481
00:24:02.240 --> 00:24:06.440
Story, and you you think that's I mean, I think
482
00:24:06.440 --> 00:24:08.519
it's more interesting. Is a great film, but that's a
483
00:24:08.599 --> 00:24:11.079
much darker one and a longer one.
484
00:24:11.680 --> 00:24:16.319
The film starts out by from war, so how much
485
00:24:16.400 --> 00:24:17.079
darker does it get.
486
00:24:17.160 --> 00:24:21.799
I'm talking about his mental state and deterioration implies someone
487
00:24:21.799 --> 00:24:25.960
that was stolen, so it's not quite the same. I'm
488
00:24:26.000 --> 00:24:28.000
not saying I wouldn't like to see it, but this
489
00:24:28.039 --> 00:24:28.960
one is just not that.
490
00:24:29.240 --> 00:24:31.680
As long as Tom Hanks doesn't play the guy.
491
00:24:31.839 --> 00:24:36.400
He doesn't need to, doesn't need to. Adam Driver, Adam Drive,
492
00:24:36.519 --> 00:24:41.720
Adam Driver. Anything that's crazy, just do it. But you're
493
00:24:41.759 --> 00:24:43.759
basing this on an accent that doesn't reel in the
494
00:24:43.759 --> 00:24:49.680
first place, A great European accents of a country that
495
00:24:49.759 --> 00:24:50.680
doesn't exist.
496
00:24:50.920 --> 00:24:54.720
It's an Eastern European, a blanketed Eastern European accent.
497
00:24:56.000 --> 00:24:57.400
What's what's wrong with it?
498
00:24:57.400 --> 00:25:01.119
It's not good And I love Tom Haynes. It's so
499
00:25:01.279 --> 00:25:04.640
cartoonish and buffoonish is how it sounds and comes across.
500
00:25:05.119 --> 00:25:07.240
Oh, I see, you think he's just clowning around.
501
00:25:07.359 --> 00:25:10.000
I don't think he's clowning around by any means. This
502
00:25:10.119 --> 00:25:12.920
isn't big yeah or splash.
503
00:25:13.440 --> 00:25:14.960
I don't know. I guess I'm trying to get it.
504
00:25:15.079 --> 00:25:17.880
I don't know what he what you you.
505
00:25:17.799 --> 00:25:20.079
Do realize the majority of the people seem to agree
506
00:25:20.119 --> 00:25:23.160
with me and the and there feels with this film.
507
00:25:23.359 --> 00:25:25.079
I think it's because it's Tom Hanks.
508
00:25:25.319 --> 00:25:28.559
Yeah, I think I think not just you, but the
509
00:25:29.640 --> 00:25:32.920
majority of people I think are getting caught up in
510
00:25:33.039 --> 00:25:37.319
that Tom Hanks is doing an accent that I think
511
00:25:37.519 --> 00:25:40.799
feels like he should be able to do a better
512
00:25:40.880 --> 00:25:44.720
accent than what he's doing, because you've seen better stuff
513
00:25:44.759 --> 00:25:45.319
like on TV.
514
00:25:45.599 --> 00:25:49.599
I also think the somebody could have been better cast
515
00:25:49.640 --> 00:25:51.079
in the role. I don't know. I can't give you
516
00:25:51.119 --> 00:25:53.640
an example who Off top of my head. Like I
517
00:25:53.839 --> 00:25:55.960
said earlier, I don't think this is a I think
518
00:25:56.000 --> 00:25:57.960
this is an okay film. I just don't think it's
519
00:25:57.960 --> 00:25:59.759
a good Tom Hanks film, and I definitely don't think
520
00:25:59.759 --> 00:26:03.480
it's a good Steven Spielberg film. Now see, it wouldn't
521
00:26:03.480 --> 00:26:06.759
be in my top ten of either one of those well.
522
00:26:06.519 --> 00:26:09.880
But that's I mean, that bar is high from what
523
00:26:09.920 --> 00:26:10.680
they've done.
524
00:26:10.519 --> 00:26:13.039
And so I set the bar high for them to
525
00:26:13.079 --> 00:26:13.880
make good.
526
00:26:14.039 --> 00:26:17.519
I think it's I think it's a sneaky, feel good
527
00:26:18.440 --> 00:26:26.359
film that has two legendary people who I mean obviously
528
00:26:26.359 --> 00:26:27.480
had already teamed.
529
00:26:27.200 --> 00:26:30.079
Up Catherine Zada, Johneson, sanil No.
530
00:26:31.279 --> 00:26:34.440
Even though I like them, but I also like the
531
00:26:34.519 --> 00:26:37.960
luggage guys, the what's the gentleman's name? He cleans the floors.
532
00:26:38.000 --> 00:26:39.200
He's got some of the best scenes.
533
00:26:41.160 --> 00:26:44.440
Yeah, okay, So I had never seen him before then
534
00:26:44.480 --> 00:26:46.759
I looked him up. He's been in a ton of
535
00:26:46.759 --> 00:26:47.319
fucking shit.
536
00:26:48.000 --> 00:26:51.640
There was something before that movie that I remembered him in,
537
00:26:51.799 --> 00:26:52.759
and now I can't remember it.
538
00:26:52.920 --> 00:26:55.880
I don't. I didn't know him from Adam, to be honest.
539
00:26:55.680 --> 00:26:56.920
You know. One of the things was that then the first
540
00:26:57.039 --> 00:27:00.200
like year or two before The Terminal came out, he
541
00:27:00.240 --> 00:27:06.039
was in some big movie. But I don't think you
542
00:27:06.200 --> 00:27:09.680
get the feelings that Stony and I are talking about,
543
00:27:09.720 --> 00:27:14.960
as far as it believing in someone, believing in their vulnerability,
544
00:27:15.039 --> 00:27:20.720
maybe their naiveness, but also lovability. If you don't have
545
00:27:20.720 --> 00:27:24.079
someone like Tom Hanks, like I don't think when he
546
00:27:24.160 --> 00:27:28.440
finally reaches that door and everyone's following him and the guy,
547
00:27:28.559 --> 00:27:33.200
the cop guy gives him his jacket. You I mean,
548
00:27:33.440 --> 00:27:39.079
I'm in. I'm totally bought in. But it's because of
549
00:27:39.119 --> 00:27:42.640
how Tom Hanks approached this character and just how I
550
00:27:42.799 --> 00:27:46.960
just feel like all these things are happening right. Stanley
551
00:27:47.000 --> 00:27:52.599
Tucci is a great example. Everything is kind of it's
552
00:27:52.640 --> 00:27:56.680
either calculated or how does it benefit me? And that's
553
00:27:56.759 --> 00:27:59.440
not Tom. Like, that's not him and that's not who
554
00:27:59.480 --> 00:28:02.240
he is. And that's why I feel like when the end,
555
00:28:02.759 --> 00:28:06.640
which whatever whatever people wanted out of it, I like
556
00:28:06.759 --> 00:28:10.440
that it was just it was for his father, and yeah,
557
00:28:10.480 --> 00:28:13.880
and that's that's it. I think that's why he's not
558
00:28:14.000 --> 00:28:16.279
gonna go buy it. I don't think. I think that's
559
00:28:16.319 --> 00:28:19.200
why he was gonna go and have this person, because
560
00:28:19.319 --> 00:28:22.200
you know, his dad got signatures that were mailed to him,
561
00:28:22.359 --> 00:28:25.400
but he could never get this one. And so this
562
00:28:25.599 --> 00:28:28.920
is what he was going to do. And I I
563
00:28:29.039 --> 00:28:32.799
feel like, you don't for those that liked it, You
564
00:28:32.839 --> 00:28:36.480
can't get behind a character like that without someone that
565
00:28:36.720 --> 00:28:42.640
just has this overall lovable factor as just a human.
566
00:28:42.720 --> 00:28:44.839
Then someone like Tom Hanks, like I don't really know
567
00:28:44.880 --> 00:28:48.599
anybody else accent or not, who could walk into that
568
00:28:48.680 --> 00:28:52.599
role and that's a great and get away with what
569
00:28:53.240 --> 00:28:55.880
he's doing, whether it's the renovating thing. I'm not saying
570
00:28:55.880 --> 00:28:58.160
everything makes sense, but there is a thing of just
571
00:28:58.359 --> 00:29:02.200
a such an on about what he's doing, and it's
572
00:29:02.279 --> 00:29:04.880
not for him, So most of it's not for him.
573
00:29:04.920 --> 00:29:07.559
It's he's helping everybody else do this.
574
00:29:07.480 --> 00:29:10.799
Whole thing with a different casting. You may sacrifice some
575
00:29:10.880 --> 00:29:14.160
of that likability for somebody that probably looks and feels
576
00:29:14.200 --> 00:29:18.359
a little more authentically Eastern European. But if the likability
577
00:29:18.559 --> 00:29:23.559
is the whole point of the Bograpy two, then why
578
00:29:23.640 --> 00:29:24.359
sacrifice that?
579
00:29:24.720 --> 00:29:26.559
Yeah? Or maybe for some of you think it's a
580
00:29:26.559 --> 00:29:27.640
better movie. I don't know.
581
00:29:28.160 --> 00:29:30.359
So, like, if he's there just doing this one thing
582
00:29:30.400 --> 00:29:33.200
for his dad, get in, get out, then why didn't
583
00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:36.319
he go day one? Because Stanley Tucci was like, why
584
00:29:36.359 --> 00:29:36.880
is he here?
585
00:29:39.200 --> 00:29:40.119
Do you want that?
586
00:29:40.240 --> 00:29:42.920
If he was that damn determined, I don't remember.
587
00:29:43.319 --> 00:29:45.799
I don't remember that. I mean he was told he
588
00:29:45.960 --> 00:29:46.839
couldn't leave.
589
00:29:46.799 --> 00:29:48.880
And then the next the next day he's in his
590
00:29:48.920 --> 00:29:51.279
bathroom walking through the terminal and Stanley Tuch is like,
591
00:29:51.519 --> 00:29:54.960
why is there a guy in the terminal in a bathrobe,
592
00:29:54.960 --> 00:29:57.720
and somebody responds to you told him, told me this
593
00:29:57.759 --> 00:29:58.319
is where he lives.
594
00:29:58.599 --> 00:30:00.920
Well, he will, I think, because I think he was
595
00:30:00.960 --> 00:30:04.000
trying to do the right thing the rules. And then
596
00:30:04.160 --> 00:30:05.200
when he's told him.
597
00:30:05.039 --> 00:30:08.279
He language, how does he know what the rules are?
598
00:30:09.079 --> 00:30:12.160
I think he understood English only thing he.
599
00:30:12.079 --> 00:30:16.599
Said yes, yes, yes, And then when they would ask
600
00:30:16.599 --> 00:30:18.000
for his passport.
601
00:30:17.880 --> 00:30:18.880
That was at the beginning.
602
00:30:19.160 --> 00:30:20.640
This was at the beginning as well.
603
00:30:20.759 --> 00:30:22.839
No, no, I'm saying what you're talking about is at
604
00:30:22.880 --> 00:30:27.119
the beginning. Yes, but he's I mean, he's picking up
605
00:30:27.200 --> 00:30:30.319
on things as as he goes, just like they show.
606
00:30:30.200 --> 00:30:32.720
You, like getting his quarters and buying books.
607
00:30:32.759 --> 00:30:36.799
But I but I I think, like he says, hey,
608
00:30:37.400 --> 00:30:39.759
basically Stanley Tucci just wants him to get out because
609
00:30:39.759 --> 00:30:42.000
he's someone else's problem. Yeah, he says that like that.
610
00:30:42.000 --> 00:30:43.319
And he even tells him you can go.
611
00:30:43.559 --> 00:30:47.759
Yeah. But Tom Hanks he knows, even as he's watching
612
00:30:47.799 --> 00:30:51.920
footage of his country and everything else, he knows he can't.
613
00:30:52.279 --> 00:30:55.799
He it's not the right, Like he's not going to
614
00:30:55.960 --> 00:30:58.680
just do it to do it illegally.
615
00:30:58.480 --> 00:31:00.799
Because he's pretty perceptive. I mean, there's a couple of
616
00:31:00.799 --> 00:31:02.960
times in the film, like when he picks up on
617
00:31:03.000 --> 00:31:05.559
the security camera watching him when he's going to leave.
618
00:31:06.680 --> 00:31:09.480
He kind of picks that up with the scene with
619
00:31:09.559 --> 00:31:12.680
the man trying to get the medicine to Canada and
620
00:31:12.680 --> 00:31:15.839
then he realizes, oh, well if it's for an animal,
621
00:31:16.680 --> 00:31:19.279
and then he changes his story to kind of help the.
622
00:31:19.279 --> 00:31:23.079
Guy, or and it's him visiting of Zoe Saldana where
623
00:31:23.240 --> 00:31:25.240
she's like, oh, you don't need this, and then he
624
00:31:25.279 --> 00:31:27.799
comes back because he's doing this every day.
625
00:31:27.720 --> 00:31:28.519
So he understood.
626
00:31:28.720 --> 00:31:30.960
He picks up. I mean, I see it. That's the thing,
627
00:31:31.039 --> 00:31:33.119
Like I don't really feel like he's like an idiot,
628
00:31:33.400 --> 00:31:34.960
like he gets it.
629
00:31:35.000 --> 00:31:38.160
I don't think if I learned a new language in
630
00:31:38.640 --> 00:31:42.000
six months that I'm going to understand the intricacies of
631
00:31:42.160 --> 00:31:48.400
medical forms enough to help somebody.
632
00:31:49.079 --> 00:31:51.400
Well, you got a lot of downtime in that airport war.
633
00:31:51.519 --> 00:31:55.880
He is stuck in the walls and fountains down reading
634
00:31:56.000 --> 00:31:57.039
forms and all that.
635
00:31:58.240 --> 00:32:00.720
You're only seeing a little bit of his life, not
636
00:32:00.759 --> 00:32:02.200
like he has the he doesn't have a phone, so
637
00:32:02.240 --> 00:32:03.279
he doesn't have the internet.
638
00:32:03.559 --> 00:32:05.079
Yeah, picking up, No, he's too smart.
639
00:32:05.359 --> 00:32:07.519
He's too busy eating fucking junior whoppers.
640
00:32:07.640 --> 00:32:11.039
I know what, and I love how it costs.
641
00:32:11.160 --> 00:32:13.079
It's a two hour infomercial for Burger King.
642
00:32:13.319 --> 00:32:16.240
It was seventy like seventy four cents because she gave
643
00:32:16.319 --> 00:32:18.000
him a penny back and he said to keep the change.
644
00:32:18.000 --> 00:32:18.599
And I thought he was a.
645
00:32:18.640 --> 00:32:22.279
Fucking cheap tipper too. Yeah, well, just like a most Europeans.
646
00:32:22.359 --> 00:32:24.920
He's see my part of their culture.
647
00:32:24.960 --> 00:32:27.160
He did research he was.
648
00:32:27.119 --> 00:32:28.079
Born, but yeah, I don't.
649
00:32:28.160 --> 00:32:30.079
Yeah, and that's why that's why I don't think and
650
00:32:30.240 --> 00:32:32.319
he only did it at the end. It is because
651
00:32:33.599 --> 00:32:37.960
the war's over and because Stanley, I mean, everything kind
652
00:32:37.960 --> 00:32:45.960
of revolves around Stanley Tucci's development and what the authority figure. Yeah,
653
00:32:46.000 --> 00:32:48.720
that's what's kind of keeping him at bay through most
654
00:32:48.759 --> 00:32:51.839
of it until he's like, okay, I like do it.
655
00:32:51.880 --> 00:32:54.599
And of course you know there's a whole distraction the hero.
656
00:32:54.680 --> 00:32:59.720
And then Stanley Tucci says at the end why he
657
00:32:59.720 --> 00:33:03.039
could he could have done that earlier being an asshole.
658
00:33:03.680 --> 00:33:07.240
But I will tell you, I think Stanley Tucci and
659
00:33:07.279 --> 00:33:09.960
I get it. Tom Hanks is the name Catherine Zena Jones,
660
00:33:09.960 --> 00:33:12.559
which I didn't mind. Your letter box says she's the
661
00:33:12.599 --> 00:33:15.400
best part of it. I don't think so but she's
662
00:33:15.480 --> 00:33:18.960
probably the second one because she's she just won an
663
00:33:19.000 --> 00:33:22.720
Oscar for Chicago a year or two before. Stanley Tucci
664
00:33:22.759 --> 00:33:26.400
is very underappreciated, maybe in just general. In this film,
665
00:33:26.759 --> 00:33:30.240
I think he actually I really liked his performance more
666
00:33:30.279 --> 00:33:31.759
than more than I remembered.
667
00:33:32.759 --> 00:33:34.799
I think it's one that'll grow on the overtime, because
668
00:33:34.839 --> 00:33:37.240
I've never seen him in a character.
669
00:33:37.079 --> 00:33:39.599
Like that with Stanley touch Yeah, yeah.
670
00:33:39.400 --> 00:33:42.039
As the so called villain, even though I think I'm like,
671
00:33:42.079 --> 00:33:43.599
he was just following the rules for the most part
672
00:33:43.599 --> 00:33:45.119
of the film and then it kind of got out
673
00:33:45.160 --> 00:33:48.680
of what he was trying to grasp that next ring
674
00:33:48.720 --> 00:33:51.240
on the ladder or the guy. Yeah, whether his boss
675
00:33:51.319 --> 00:33:53.640
was retiring, he was up for the promotion. That's where
676
00:33:53.640 --> 00:33:55.759
he kind of like really lost himself, will you.
677
00:33:55.960 --> 00:33:58.559
But you think about it as like a concerned citizen,
678
00:33:58.720 --> 00:34:01.440
Like he's an antagonist in this film because you're rooting
679
00:34:01.519 --> 00:34:05.039
for Tom Hanks's character, but like in real life, you
680
00:34:05.160 --> 00:34:06.759
want a guy like Stanley Tucci.
681
00:34:07.039 --> 00:34:09.400
Yeah, yeah, especially at that airport.
682
00:34:09.519 --> 00:34:12.280
Well we're post not that, we're just recently post nine
683
00:34:12.280 --> 00:34:15.400
to eleven, So half of that ship that wouldn't have flied,
684
00:34:15.679 --> 00:34:19.440
wouldn't have flown, you know, Yeah, at that time, they're
685
00:34:19.480 --> 00:34:21.880
not RFK or any airport in America is not going
686
00:34:21.960 --> 00:34:26.599
to let some some Middle Eastern European or Middle European whatever.
687
00:34:26.679 --> 00:34:30.320
Fuck anybody just live in the fucking airport for ten months?
688
00:34:30.400 --> 00:34:32.440
Do we know that nine to eleven happened in the
689
00:34:32.519 --> 00:34:33.519
Terminal universe?
690
00:34:34.679 --> 00:34:35.559
That's true.
691
00:34:36.760 --> 00:34:40.199
By some of the security questions we see at the
692
00:34:40.199 --> 00:34:42.119
beginning of the film and so forth, I would believe.
693
00:34:42.159 --> 00:34:44.639
So we'll have to go back and watch that for clues.
694
00:34:44.760 --> 00:34:50.840
I just want to see what cinematic universe it's in. Right,
695
00:34:51.159 --> 00:34:52.599
is the Polar Express also.
696
00:34:52.400 --> 00:34:54.599
Like Broken Lizard the Conjuring Universe?
697
00:34:54.719 --> 00:34:54.920
Right?
698
00:34:55.199 --> 00:34:59.679
Yeah? Is Annabelle touring the nation and killing people?
699
00:35:00.119 --> 00:35:00.400
Maybe?
700
00:35:00.760 --> 00:35:03.880
What do Why do you think Catherin Zena Jones is
701
00:35:03.880 --> 00:35:04.400
the best part?
702
00:35:04.599 --> 00:35:07.159
I mean, I was being funny to be glib or anything.
703
00:35:08.000 --> 00:35:09.679
I will say I've never been a big fan of hers,
704
00:35:09.840 --> 00:35:11.679
but I really liked her in this film. You know what,
705
00:35:11.800 --> 00:35:14.639
I did too, And I thought she was beautiful in
706
00:35:14.679 --> 00:35:17.599
this film. I'm like, as a from a physical standpoint,
707
00:35:17.639 --> 00:35:19.880
I've never been attracted to her, but I just love
708
00:35:19.960 --> 00:35:23.320
the way she was lit. I guess, so I just
709
00:35:23.440 --> 00:35:24.400
really liked her in this.
710
00:35:24.599 --> 00:35:28.199
They did a good job of presenting her as Victor
711
00:35:28.719 --> 00:35:33.000
sees her. I think that's the was the plan there,
712
00:35:33.000 --> 00:35:33.920
if I had to guess.
713
00:35:34.079 --> 00:35:39.639
And I appreciate that it was not like a holding hands.
714
00:35:39.679 --> 00:35:42.039
They go to New York together and get the signature
715
00:35:42.119 --> 00:35:44.519
and he's gonna stay. I'm glad we didn't go that route.
716
00:35:44.559 --> 00:35:47.119
I'm glad it was where she ended up going back
717
00:35:47.159 --> 00:35:49.719
to something that she knows it and it's never gonna happen.
718
00:35:49.800 --> 00:35:53.280
But but the waiting part of their conversation that also
719
00:35:53.400 --> 00:35:56.760
adds I think some half to the to the story
720
00:35:56.840 --> 00:35:59.119
of not just him stuck in an airport, but kind
721
00:35:59.119 --> 00:36:01.119
of what's going on in the people who are coming
722
00:36:01.119 --> 00:36:03.480
in and out of the airport, and you know, and
723
00:36:03.519 --> 00:36:06.320
you also got like I said, the ensemble cast should
724
00:36:06.320 --> 00:36:08.320
get a lot of credit because there's a lot of
725
00:36:08.320 --> 00:36:11.079
things going on there that I really like. But also
726
00:36:12.159 --> 00:36:14.559
again I think shows you the kind of guy that
727
00:36:14.599 --> 00:36:18.880
Tom Hanks's character was two But I know you didn't
728
00:36:18.920 --> 00:36:23.079
like you said you didn't like the Zoey Seldana diego uh,
729
00:36:23.119 --> 00:36:25.159
which if that's in your notes, just keep ye keep
730
00:36:25.159 --> 00:36:25.840
moving so str.
731
00:36:25.880 --> 00:36:28.039
We'll get to some of the things that bothered me really,
732
00:36:28.159 --> 00:36:31.639
But this cast includes three Oscar winners, obviously Hank's Zeta
733
00:36:31.719 --> 00:36:35.559
Jones Zoe Now and one Oscar nominee, Stanley.
734
00:36:35.239 --> 00:36:37.800
Tucci yep, which he was nominated.
735
00:36:38.119 --> 00:36:40.599
What Spielberg's won Oscars, hasn't he?
736
00:36:41.000 --> 00:36:43.480
Yeah, he went for saving Private r He hasn't won
737
00:36:43.480 --> 00:36:46.840
an think for acting, but yeah, yeah, Spielberg did win
738
00:36:46.880 --> 00:36:48.039
for saving Private Running.
739
00:36:48.039 --> 00:36:52.320
At least there were other directors linked to this film
740
00:36:52.400 --> 00:36:56.159
at various points before Spielberg was attached to it. I
741
00:36:56.239 --> 00:36:57.960
mentioned this off air, and I don't think I've mentioned
742
00:36:57.960 --> 00:37:00.360
it since, but I thought and I saw a box
743
00:37:00.400 --> 00:37:02.719
review that said this, and I agreed with her where
744
00:37:02.719 --> 00:37:05.320
she said I thought Robert Zamechis directed this film for
745
00:37:05.360 --> 00:37:08.039
the longest time. He was one of those names. And
746
00:37:08.159 --> 00:37:12.679
another name you see that, Sam Mendez, WHOA.
747
00:37:12.119 --> 00:37:14.519
I could see. I could see that again. I think
748
00:37:14.559 --> 00:37:19.480
you're talking about I think Zamechas's would look more like Spielberg. Mendez,
749
00:37:20.400 --> 00:37:22.519
I kind of feel like would be more I don't
750
00:37:22.559 --> 00:37:25.000
know why, maybe because he's British, but a lot more dramatic.
751
00:37:25.679 --> 00:37:29.039
Yeah, I'm curious though, Like these are some big names
752
00:37:29.079 --> 00:37:31.800
attached to this project, like did they think were they
753
00:37:31.880 --> 00:37:35.320
going for like Oscar Buzz with this or.
754
00:37:35.519 --> 00:37:40.239
I honestly never seen the film until literally twenty four
755
00:37:40.280 --> 00:37:45.920
hours ago. Uh thought this was a drama and nothing
756
00:37:45.960 --> 00:37:49.119
comedic about it, and then when the comedy parts started
757
00:37:50.000 --> 00:37:52.440
coming into the film, it just rubbed me the wrong
758
00:37:52.480 --> 00:37:54.760
way because it was not the film I thought I
759
00:37:54.840 --> 00:37:57.039
was sitting down to watch. And maybe that's part of
760
00:37:57.039 --> 00:37:58.280
my issue with the film.
761
00:37:58.480 --> 00:38:00.639
I think that kind of that might speak to the
762
00:38:00.639 --> 00:38:04.559
bigger problem of maybe why it's sixty percent whatever is
763
00:38:04.599 --> 00:38:08.639
that I think maybe you associate Hanks and Spielberg and
764
00:38:08.719 --> 00:38:11.480
this is not quite what you get, even though I
765
00:38:11.519 --> 00:38:14.679
feel like, I mean, I personally like catch me if
766
00:38:14.679 --> 00:38:17.679
you can better. But that's another Spielberg Hanks one that
767
00:38:17.960 --> 00:38:19.920
ended up being more of an awards player. But it's
768
00:38:20.079 --> 00:38:22.079
I think it's kind of in the same vein the
769
00:38:22.119 --> 00:38:23.480
same term, similar elements.
770
00:38:23.559 --> 00:38:27.360
Yeah, yeah, because I watched the trailer before ever watching
771
00:38:27.400 --> 00:38:31.119
the movie yesterday, and I didn't pick up on comedic
772
00:38:31.199 --> 00:38:33.119
vibes really from the from what I saw.
773
00:38:33.320 --> 00:38:37.199
Okay, maybe it's like the way they do these others
774
00:38:37.239 --> 00:38:38.800
where it's a musical but they don't tell you it's
775
00:38:38.840 --> 00:38:39.840
a musical. They make you.
776
00:38:39.800 --> 00:38:42.000
Think I'd be curious to go back and watch the
777
00:38:42.039 --> 00:38:45.320
trailer because that's an interesting that's an interesting idea.
778
00:38:45.480 --> 00:38:47.119
I mean, it does seem like that would come out
779
00:38:47.119 --> 00:38:49.960
in November, so it's like, yeah, it really does.
780
00:38:49.880 --> 00:38:53.639
The Materialist that came out earlier this year. Yeah, the
781
00:38:53.679 --> 00:38:56.599
trailer sells you on a completely different movie.
782
00:38:56.880 --> 00:38:58.000
Yeah, No, it's not a wrong com.
783
00:38:58.199 --> 00:38:59.920
No, it's not at all a great film.
784
00:39:00.000 --> 00:39:03.000
I just say I also really liked it. But I agree.
785
00:39:03.079 --> 00:39:05.719
I think there's some things where people are like, well,
786
00:39:05.719 --> 00:39:07.760
wait a minute, that's not you know. But then I
787
00:39:07.760 --> 00:39:11.079
guess to me, it's kind of like, again, you kind
788
00:39:11.119 --> 00:39:13.719
of associate people certain stuff. Now when I see like,
789
00:39:14.559 --> 00:39:17.840
you know, writer, director, Academy War nominee from Past Lives,
790
00:39:17.840 --> 00:39:19.920
I'm gonna say, Okay, this can't be a rom com
791
00:39:19.960 --> 00:39:23.559
like Matthew McConaughey rom com, you know. And so I
792
00:39:23.639 --> 00:39:26.039
just wonder if it kind of on the flip side
793
00:39:26.079 --> 00:39:28.880
of it, was this a thing of like, like you said,
794
00:39:28.920 --> 00:39:31.679
it's kind of seen as maybe more of this dramatic
795
00:39:33.639 --> 00:39:36.719
piece than just like actually, like it is a bit looser.
796
00:39:37.199 --> 00:39:39.800
It can get silly. But again, I mean I think
797
00:39:39.840 --> 00:39:41.480
I think it's heart is in the right place.
798
00:39:41.519 --> 00:39:45.599
Like Tom Hanks has done a large number of comedies
799
00:39:45.639 --> 00:39:48.760
over his career. Oh yeah, but Spielberg is when I
800
00:39:48.800 --> 00:39:50.360
think comedy is not the name I go to.
801
00:39:50.960 --> 00:39:53.280
Yeah, no again, I think cash Me if you can
802
00:39:53.400 --> 00:39:55.360
is the closest one I can kind of think of that,
803
00:39:55.679 --> 00:39:56.519
sort of like, I.
804
00:39:56.559 --> 00:39:59.440
Mean this, granted, Schindler's List is a fucking riot.
805
00:39:59.599 --> 00:40:03.000
Yeah, well, well that's true. That's true. Well, you know,
806
00:40:03.079 --> 00:40:06.280
I mean some people say Passionate of the Christ is.
807
00:40:06.239 --> 00:40:09.519
Too Yeah, some people think it's a documentary as well.
808
00:40:09.599 --> 00:40:10.719
Oh that's true, that's right.
809
00:40:11.480 --> 00:40:14.639
But Steven Spielberg's This is Steven Spielberg's first movie to
810
00:40:14.760 --> 00:40:18.280
utilize a digital intermediate, which I didn't even know that
811
00:40:18.480 --> 00:40:19.000
was before.
812
00:40:19.119 --> 00:40:20.039
I don't know what that is.
813
00:40:20.119 --> 00:40:22.639
Well, I'm going to tell you, okay. A digital intermediate
814
00:40:22.800 --> 00:40:27.880
often replaces or augments the photochemical timing process, the colorization
815
00:40:28.000 --> 00:40:31.000
and such, and it is usually the final creative adjustment
816
00:40:31.039 --> 00:40:33.280
to a movie before distribution in theaters.
817
00:40:33.840 --> 00:40:34.440
How about that.
818
00:40:35.119 --> 00:40:37.400
First to use? And it was a fairly new concept
819
00:40:37.480 --> 00:40:39.159
at the time too. I think like one or two
820
00:40:39.280 --> 00:40:40.599
movies had used it prior.
821
00:40:41.440 --> 00:40:43.920
It does make me wonder like how it goes from
822
00:40:44.119 --> 00:40:46.519
one director or the other where Spielberg does it, because
823
00:40:47.239 --> 00:40:50.760
there are countless stories that I've heard in documentaries or
824
00:40:51.079 --> 00:40:54.840
you know, just actors or directors saying yeah, you know,
825
00:40:54.960 --> 00:40:57.719
I did this, or Spielberg called me and said, hey,
826
00:40:57.719 --> 00:40:59.639
you should look into this script, like he's all I
827
00:40:59.639 --> 00:41:02.679
mean his I'm just curious what that process was because
828
00:41:02.679 --> 00:41:05.599
I feel like if Spielberg owned it, was it just
829
00:41:05.639 --> 00:41:07.519
something he was going to produce and not do it,
830
00:41:07.559 --> 00:41:10.320
and then eventually he decided. I don't know if that's
831
00:41:10.400 --> 00:41:13.599
part of the game where Spielberg isn't first and is
832
00:41:13.679 --> 00:41:16.199
deciding what role am I going to play it?
833
00:41:16.239 --> 00:41:18.159
I mean, it's a DreamWorks film, so it could have
834
00:41:18.159 --> 00:41:19.679
been him Catten's Burg.
835
00:41:19.840 --> 00:41:22.119
That's why I think the script was there. The question
836
00:41:22.320 --> 00:41:24.119
was did he want to do it? And when other
837
00:41:24.159 --> 00:41:26.639
people passed, I guess maybe thought, you know what, or
838
00:41:26.639 --> 00:41:28.679
it could be word once Tom Hanks got on board
839
00:41:28.719 --> 00:41:31.559
and they talked and he's like okay. Because keep in
840
00:41:31.599 --> 00:41:34.039
mind they've also been producing Buddies for a Band of
841
00:41:34.079 --> 00:41:37.000
Brothers Pacific. I mean, they do a lot of stuff.
842
00:41:38.559 --> 00:41:42.199
Another nerdy fact for you is that a majority, if
843
00:41:42.239 --> 00:41:44.760
not All of the flights that you see on the
844
00:41:44.800 --> 00:41:48.079
departure board were flights operated by members of the Star
845
00:41:48.199 --> 00:41:52.159
Alliance and United Airlines is a founding partner of the
846
00:41:52.199 --> 00:41:54.639
Star Alliance. Star Line sounds like something out of a
847
00:41:55.199 --> 00:41:57.519
Marvel film or what it does. Yeah, yeah, but it's
848
00:41:57.559 --> 00:42:01.360
a real thing. It's an airline alliance had quartered in Frankfurt, Germany,
849
00:42:01.480 --> 00:42:04.239
that was founded in May of ninety seven. It is
850
00:42:04.280 --> 00:42:08.079
the world's first global airline alliance. It has twenty five
851
00:42:08.199 --> 00:42:12.199
members that operate a combined fleet of over five thousand
852
00:42:12.199 --> 00:42:15.199
aircraft serving more than thirteen hundred airports and one hundred
853
00:42:15.199 --> 00:42:19.320
and ninety five countries on more than nineteen thousand daily flights.
854
00:42:19.760 --> 00:42:23.239
Damn, damn, it's prolific.
855
00:42:23.679 --> 00:42:27.440
Yeah. I would have thought Star Alliance is something from
856
00:42:27.440 --> 00:42:28.079
like Star Trek.
857
00:42:28.400 --> 00:42:29.559
I did not think that was real.
858
00:42:29.639 --> 00:42:32.719
Yeah, yeah, I went to this Wikipedia page. It's real real.
859
00:42:33.760 --> 00:42:37.199
We've talked about the collaboration between Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg.
860
00:42:37.239 --> 00:42:41.079
This is their third collaboration, following Save a Private Ryan
861
00:42:41.079 --> 00:42:42.840
and catch me if you can and then they would
862
00:42:42.880 --> 00:42:45.920
reteam over ten years later. Two more times that I
863
00:42:45.960 --> 00:42:48.760
know of on bridges Spies, which I absolutely loved.
864
00:42:49.039 --> 00:42:49.880
I never saw that one.
865
00:42:49.880 --> 00:42:51.800
Wow, I really like it, but I love World War Two.
866
00:42:51.880 --> 00:42:53.639
You should see it for Mark Rylance alone.
867
00:42:53.679 --> 00:42:55.559
Yeah, I do love some Mark Rylance.
868
00:42:55.679 --> 00:42:57.960
So you have Bridges Spies and then two years later
869
00:42:58.000 --> 00:42:58.920
for The Posts.
870
00:42:59.519 --> 00:43:00.760
Yep, yep.
871
00:43:00.840 --> 00:43:02.079
I don't remember that one either.
872
00:43:02.280 --> 00:43:04.440
That's got Hanks and Meryl Streep in it, and it's
873
00:43:04.480 --> 00:43:09.360
about Watergate. Yes, them like the process and how it
874
00:43:09.440 --> 00:43:11.559
got there. But it's good.
875
00:43:11.599 --> 00:43:13.599
I mean, it's no President's Men.
876
00:43:13.679 --> 00:43:18.239
But yeah, well, I I guess that's why I think
877
00:43:18.360 --> 00:43:21.920
like a lot of their collaboration is stuff like that. Like,
878
00:43:21.960 --> 00:43:23.760
I'll be honest, I kind of forgot about The Post.
879
00:43:23.760 --> 00:43:27.159
It's good and it wanted it to be a Awards player.
880
00:43:27.760 --> 00:43:27.880
Uh.
881
00:43:28.039 --> 00:43:30.639
Bridge of Spies was, but Mark Rylance and he won
882
00:43:30.880 --> 00:43:35.239
Best Supporting Actor. But yeah, I mean, you know what
883
00:43:35.360 --> 00:43:37.920
through it all, you know I'm saving Private Ryan. It's
884
00:43:38.000 --> 00:43:39.840
just it's in a class of its own.
885
00:43:40.000 --> 00:43:40.599
I agree.
886
00:43:41.039 --> 00:43:42.000
I missed that one too.
887
00:43:42.239 --> 00:43:44.480
You missed it? Oh well, you should go back.
888
00:43:45.239 --> 00:43:47.400
A lot more of his films than I realized I did.
889
00:43:47.519 --> 00:43:50.159
Hanks or Spielberg were both, I don't both. As a
890
00:43:50.199 --> 00:43:52.880
matter of fact, I've seen more Hanks than Spielberg. But
891
00:43:53.800 --> 00:43:55.559
there's a lot of Spielberg that I need to go
892
00:43:55.679 --> 00:43:57.079
back and uh and watch.
893
00:43:57.119 --> 00:43:59.000
It's kind of funny how like it seems like he'll
894
00:43:59.079 --> 00:44:02.159
kind of get on with like Hanks for a little bit.
895
00:44:02.559 --> 00:44:04.159
He did Tom Cruise for a little bit, more of
896
00:44:04.199 --> 00:44:07.480
the Worlds and Minority Report, and then he'll kind of
897
00:44:07.840 --> 00:44:09.840
you know, I mean, he did Ready Player one, and
898
00:44:09.840 --> 00:44:13.679
then he did the what's the what's the famous musical?
899
00:44:13.800 --> 00:44:14.679
Just the West Side Story?
900
00:44:14.800 --> 00:44:18.400
Yeah? Yeah, and then what's the what's the most recent
901
00:44:18.440 --> 00:44:22.079
when he did The Fableman's which was a very personal one,
902
00:44:22.079 --> 00:44:25.159
which that saw that I feel like he just did
903
00:44:25.199 --> 00:44:26.119
something else.
904
00:44:26.599 --> 00:44:29.159
Like I'm just like, in the last few years, I
905
00:44:29.159 --> 00:44:30.480
didn't realize he did Lincoln.
906
00:44:31.199 --> 00:44:33.440
Oh yeah, I forgot. Yeah, he had to talk to
907
00:44:33.519 --> 00:44:36.280
Danield Lewis a couple the BFG.
908
00:44:36.920 --> 00:44:41.039
Yeah, And I think those are all of the movies
909
00:44:41.079 --> 00:44:42.480
of the last ten years.
910
00:44:42.719 --> 00:44:45.119
What's the last one you see? The Fableman's is that.
911
00:44:45.320 --> 00:44:47.880
The Fableman's is twenty twenty two. He's got a science
912
00:44:47.880 --> 00:44:51.360
fiction film coming out, That's what He's next year that
913
00:44:51.440 --> 00:44:55.679
has Emily Blunt and Coleman Domingo and White Russell are
914
00:44:55.719 --> 00:44:57.360
the only names that I recognize in it.
915
00:44:57.519 --> 00:45:01.679
Okay, And he's linked to George Gershwin Okay.
916
00:45:01.960 --> 00:45:04.039
And yeah, yeah he does all. You know, he's got
917
00:45:04.039 --> 00:45:06.320
a lot of his producing stuff too.
918
00:45:06.519 --> 00:45:10.800
So I never saw Honest Odd I did either.
919
00:45:10.960 --> 00:45:12.559
That's a good one. I just remember. I think I
920
00:45:12.599 --> 00:45:14.360
was probably too young to appreciate it, but I do
921
00:45:14.440 --> 00:45:18.440
remember being super long. But Matthew mcconaughe's in it. In
922
00:45:18.440 --> 00:45:20.400
Anthony Hopkins didn't Freeman.
923
00:45:20.360 --> 00:45:22.360
Didn't see Empire of the Sun.
924
00:45:22.840 --> 00:45:24.039
That's a great films.
925
00:45:24.400 --> 00:45:29.320
Christ Christian, Yeah, I never saw Close Encounters of the
926
00:45:29.320 --> 00:45:32.360
Third kind either. There's a lot of his film like
927
00:45:32.559 --> 00:45:34.000
classics that I just I.
928
00:45:33.960 --> 00:45:36.159
Just mind, I haven't seen all of Close Encounters. I'd
929
00:45:36.239 --> 00:45:38.480
like to watch that one. I guess Jaws is my
930
00:45:38.599 --> 00:45:41.360
most I mean, I think he did what Duel before
931
00:45:41.360 --> 00:45:42.320
the Jaws.
932
00:45:41.960 --> 00:45:46.559
A film called Firelight that is actually partially lost in
933
00:45:46.679 --> 00:45:49.400
nineteen sixty four, and then he did Duel in nineteen
934
00:45:49.440 --> 00:45:54.159
seventy one, the Sugarland Express in seventy four, and then
935
00:45:54.280 --> 00:45:55.519
Jaws was seventy five.
936
00:45:55.760 --> 00:45:57.800
Duel. If I remember Greig, it was a made for
937
00:45:57.880 --> 00:45:58.480
TV movie.
938
00:45:58.599 --> 00:46:01.079
Yes, yeah, yeah, it's kind of like in the vein
939
00:46:01.119 --> 00:46:01.880
of Carry.
940
00:46:02.039 --> 00:46:07.039
The Sugarland Express is considered it's noted theatrical film directing data.
941
00:46:07.239 --> 00:46:12.519
That was what Goldie yep, mhm. Man, he's the man.
942
00:46:12.760 --> 00:46:18.079
You know, the man has jumped from Jaws to et
943
00:46:18.599 --> 00:46:20.880
e T and Jurassic I mean, I feel like every
944
00:46:20.960 --> 00:46:25.840
single thing like he's there, A lot of them are
945
00:46:26.239 --> 00:46:28.679
cinemat like it doesn't get bigger than.
946
00:46:29.000 --> 00:46:30.280
You couldn't touch him in the eighties.
947
00:46:30.320 --> 00:46:33.679
And the fact that he is still doing great work.
948
00:46:34.400 --> 00:46:41.199
Yeah, it is good. So the documentary that just came
949
00:46:41.239 --> 00:46:43.760
out on the fiftieth year of Jaws is really good.
950
00:46:43.760 --> 00:46:44.679
If you haven't seen.
951
00:46:44.519 --> 00:46:47.360
That, you know what it depends if you if that's
952
00:46:47.400 --> 00:46:50.679
the first one you've seen as a lot I remember
953
00:46:50.719 --> 00:46:52.519
watching this thing and I think it was called Page
954
00:46:52.559 --> 00:46:56.079
to Screen, and there's a lot of stuff that was
955
00:46:56.119 --> 00:46:58.960
in that that's in this one. They have up to date,
956
00:46:59.119 --> 00:47:01.320
like they you know, they review Emily Blunt and some
957
00:47:01.360 --> 00:47:06.159
of the more famous people now celebrities, but a lot
958
00:47:06.199 --> 00:47:09.639
of that was has actually been documented before. So I
959
00:47:09.800 --> 00:47:11.320
liked it. But a lot of stuff I knew from
960
00:47:12.039 --> 00:47:14.679
John Williams, stuff which Sean Williams has his own documentary
961
00:47:14.679 --> 00:47:16.760
on Disney plus that came out last year where he's
962
00:47:16.800 --> 00:47:19.519
talking about Jaws, and then of course the Shark not working,
963
00:47:19.599 --> 00:47:22.559
and I remember Spielberg saying even thought he'd never work again,
964
00:47:23.239 --> 00:47:25.559
and he was so behind budget. I remember some of
965
00:47:25.639 --> 00:47:28.760
like what they showed in this documentary about the like
966
00:47:29.000 --> 00:47:30.519
the gossip, it was on the it was in the
967
00:47:30.559 --> 00:47:33.480
paper of like this guy is ruining.
968
00:47:33.719 --> 00:47:37.320
And the actual boat that's used in the film is
969
00:47:37.599 --> 00:47:42.639
in the tour, the trolley tour at Universal Studios, which
970
00:47:42.840 --> 00:47:46.079
I've passed by many times, even most recently when I
971
00:47:46.119 --> 00:47:49.400
was down for HHN. But he would hide in it.
972
00:47:49.639 --> 00:47:52.719
That's why I haven't. I have an anxiety attacks.
973
00:47:52.440 --> 00:47:55.519
Like like that ship saved my life a couple of times.
974
00:47:55.559 --> 00:47:58.559
But the whole one about Robert Shaw being drunk screwing
975
00:47:58.559 --> 00:48:00.000
it up, I remember that being a part of it.
976
00:48:00.079 --> 00:48:02.480
Different one. They said he was a he was a drinker,
977
00:48:02.519 --> 00:48:05.719
but I also loved the story where he apologized and
978
00:48:05.760 --> 00:48:07.559
the next day he knaieled it in one take and
979
00:48:08.000 --> 00:48:08.679
that's what there you.
980
00:48:10.360 --> 00:48:12.960
This was selected as the opening film of the four
981
00:48:13.079 --> 00:48:14.239
Venice Film Festival.
982
00:48:14.519 --> 00:48:15.800
Really I didn't know that.
983
00:48:15.880 --> 00:48:17.000
Yeah, I didn't know that either.
984
00:48:17.440 --> 00:48:22.840
And then Victor reads a note to a character indicating
985
00:48:22.920 --> 00:48:25.360
that he intended to stay at the Ramada end one
986
00:48:25.480 --> 00:48:28.639
sixty one Lexington and in real life, one sixty one
987
00:48:28.800 --> 00:48:32.000
Lexington Avenue, New York was indeed home to the Ramada
988
00:48:32.199 --> 00:48:34.639
New York East Side hotel at the time of the
989
00:48:34.760 --> 00:48:38.559
Terminals filming. Its history stretches back over one hundred and
990
00:48:38.559 --> 00:48:41.639
ten years to nineteen fourteen, when it debuted as the
991
00:48:41.719 --> 00:48:46.000
Hotel Rutledge for women, and it retained a women only
992
00:48:46.079 --> 00:48:51.559
policy until the nineteen thirties. It subs Schanchul Jesus Christ.
993
00:48:51.800 --> 00:48:55.440
It bore both quality in and Ramada branding, and since
994
00:48:55.559 --> 00:49:00.239
twoenty seventeen, longtime owner apple Core Hotels has instead had
995
00:49:00.280 --> 00:49:03.360
made the property an in house brand, renaming it the
996
00:49:03.400 --> 00:49:11.000
Hotel at New York City. But it's a real, real place, forever, forever, forever.
997
00:49:11.119 --> 00:49:14.199
Ramda in in our hearts and only let men in
998
00:49:14.480 --> 00:49:15.199
that right.
999
00:49:17.039 --> 00:49:18.679
While these women need their own place.
1000
00:49:23.440 --> 00:49:23.599
Uh.
1001
00:49:23.639 --> 00:49:26.519
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Spielberg said that the
1002
00:49:26.559 --> 00:49:31.039
film was a slight homage to Jacques Tatis's Playtime and
1003
00:49:31.159 --> 00:49:34.079
the work of Frank Capra with this honest sentiment.
1004
00:49:36.159 --> 00:49:38.519
Let's see that honest sentiment is.
1005
00:49:38.480 --> 00:49:45.559
A great great yep, okay, so Officer Torres and Zoe
1006
00:49:45.679 --> 00:49:49.920
Sidalda says she goes to Star Trek conventions dressed as
1007
00:49:51.320 --> 00:49:53.599
I forget what character brand is the last.
1008
00:49:53.400 --> 00:49:54.239
Name Darth Vader.
1009
00:49:54.400 --> 00:49:58.159
Yeah, but she later played Ourah and Star Trek two
1010
00:49:58.159 --> 00:50:01.679
thousand and nine and its sequels by J. J. Abrams.
1011
00:50:02.719 --> 00:50:04.280
Wow, she's Gomorra.
1012
00:50:04.719 --> 00:50:05.960
She's Gomorrah. Yeah?
1013
00:50:06.360 --> 00:50:08.400
Is that what you meant? No?
1014
00:50:10.079 --> 00:50:12.800
I know, I was like, I know she was in
1015
00:50:12.840 --> 00:50:13.199
that too.
1016
00:50:14.440 --> 00:50:17.679
I actually forget that she has been in Star Trek
1017
00:50:17.840 --> 00:50:20.760
in Marvel, so DC's next.
1018
00:50:20.920 --> 00:50:23.400
She's uh, she's got a got some money.
1019
00:50:23.760 --> 00:50:29.400
So has uh? Chris Pine, Yeah, he was in both
1020
00:50:29.440 --> 00:50:33.360
Star Trek and DC. Was he in d C too?
1021
00:50:33.519 --> 00:50:34.320
He's not in Marvel.
1022
00:50:34.679 --> 00:50:35.360
I thought he was.
1023
00:50:36.199 --> 00:50:38.519
He was wondering. He's been in the Wonder Woman movies.
1024
00:50:38.719 --> 00:50:40.199
That's where he That's where he's from.
1025
00:50:40.280 --> 00:50:44.159
Chris Hemsworth, Yeah, it is Marvel. Chris Pine.
1026
00:50:44.199 --> 00:50:45.800
Chris Hamworths was going to be Hulk Hogan.
1027
00:50:46.639 --> 00:50:47.199
He still might.
1028
00:50:47.719 --> 00:50:49.039
I don't think he want to now.
1029
00:50:49.519 --> 00:50:50.920
That project did get killed.
1030
00:50:51.599 --> 00:50:56.960
Yeah, according to hult Cogan, they had a business mishap
1031
00:50:57.519 --> 00:50:59.559
and he had already walked away, which I'm sure that's
1032
00:50:59.599 --> 00:51:00.440
not true.
1033
00:51:02.199 --> 00:51:04.480
Wrestlers lie or stressed.
1034
00:51:04.800 --> 00:51:09.719
That one did that bullshit that one did.
1035
00:51:10.239 --> 00:51:12.840
Only the truth came out when he was on hidden camera.
1036
00:51:13.400 --> 00:51:15.280
Yeah, boy did they get them.
1037
00:51:15.320 --> 00:51:17.880
And yeah they did that fucking sponge.
1038
00:51:18.079 --> 00:51:21.119
Candid camera, the love sponge, whatever the.
1039
00:51:21.119 --> 00:51:24.079
Fuck he was uh. Zoe also said working on this
1040
00:51:24.119 --> 00:51:27.480
film made her more comfortable with large scale productions after
1041
00:51:27.519 --> 00:51:30.000
the negative experience she had while filming Pirates of the
1042
00:51:30.039 --> 00:51:31.719
Caribbean The Curse of the Black Pearl.
1043
00:51:31.960 --> 00:51:34.679
She was in that, Yeah, I don't remember her in that.
1044
00:51:35.079 --> 00:51:36.480
They all run together to.
1045
00:51:36.440 --> 00:51:40.760
Me, they she I do remember seeing her in it,
1046
00:51:41.480 --> 00:51:44.119
but I couldn't tell you if she was on his
1047
00:51:44.280 --> 00:51:49.800
crew or she was with Jeffrey. I don't know.
1048
00:51:51.079 --> 00:51:54.599
Yeah, she looks young. I don't remember I remember this character.
1049
00:51:54.880 --> 00:51:56.119
She didn't have fun in that one.
1050
00:51:56.440 --> 00:51:59.239
No, she's even quota saying. I walked away from Pirates
1051
00:51:59.280 --> 00:52:01.000
not really having a good experience from it.
1052
00:52:01.039 --> 00:52:01.480
Overall.
1053
00:52:01.960 --> 00:52:03.960
I felt like I was lost in the trenches of it.
1054
00:52:04.039 --> 00:52:06.840
A great deal and I just didn't feel like it
1055
00:52:06.880 --> 00:52:09.360
was okay. I worked with Steven Spielberg eight months later,
1056
00:52:09.719 --> 00:52:12.199
and he restored my faith that can that big can
1057
00:52:12.239 --> 00:52:12.960
also be great.
1058
00:52:13.360 --> 00:52:17.119
Yeah, Well, Spielberg's been doing it for a long time
1059
00:52:17.199 --> 00:52:21.480
even then. So but now look now she's an Oscar winner,
1060
00:52:21.480 --> 00:52:22.440
she should think Spielberg.
1061
00:52:22.559 --> 00:52:24.320
Yeah, maybe she has, I hope.
1062
00:52:24.360 --> 00:52:24.440
So.
1063
00:52:24.760 --> 00:52:28.960
Yeah. So the airport that we see RFK looks nothing
1064
00:52:29.000 --> 00:52:38.039
like RSK RF huh, Kennedy Airport whatever, whatever, r J
1065
00:52:38.639 --> 00:52:43.719
JFKKA anyway, it looks nothing like JFK or RFK airports.
1066
00:52:44.119 --> 00:52:47.519
But what it does look like is the uh, the
1067
00:52:47.559 --> 00:52:52.079
Paris airport that the real story came from. Because the
1068
00:52:52.119 --> 00:52:55.599
recreated airport took sixteen weeks to build, contained over one
1069
00:52:55.679 --> 00:52:59.039
hundred and twelve thousand square feet of glass, seventy five
1070
00:52:59.079 --> 00:53:02.239
thousand square feet of floor space, large enough to hold
1071
00:53:02.280 --> 00:53:06.199
six hundred extras. It was fitted with two thousand miniature lights,
1072
00:53:06.239 --> 00:53:09.760
and it also included working escalators and real food courts.
1073
00:53:10.840 --> 00:53:14.280
Damn about that, man, there's your sixty million dollars.
1074
00:53:14.239 --> 00:53:16.199
But I say, there's that budget right there.
1075
00:53:16.840 --> 00:53:19.760
Yeah, they recreated it. It was in Palmdale, California, which
1076
00:53:19.760 --> 00:53:22.719
is out in the desert in California. So, uh, and
1077
00:53:24.119 --> 00:53:26.400
tell me how boogy this is. You know, how Steven
1078
00:53:26.400 --> 00:53:30.119
Spielberg got to work every day? Helicopter helicopter in d nice.
1079
00:53:31.360 --> 00:53:32.199
Not Tom Hanks.
1080
00:53:32.639 --> 00:53:33.440
That's crazy.
1081
00:53:33.559 --> 00:53:35.719
Tom Hanks drove a Dodge Neon.
1082
00:53:35.719 --> 00:53:39.280
Probably, or if he's like Will Fairley drove a Dodge
1083
00:53:39.320 --> 00:53:41.559
Stratus because he's an important person, right.
1084
00:53:42.039 --> 00:53:46.199
No, I can. I mean it's a I mean, listen,
1085
00:53:46.239 --> 00:53:51.119
it's a flex move. But again, if anybody should come
1086
00:53:51.159 --> 00:53:53.880
to work in a helicopter, it should be Spilburg.
1087
00:53:54.280 --> 00:53:56.320
I guess he's in a garbon footprint though.
1088
00:53:56.440 --> 00:53:58.880
Yeah, it's okay. We're all gonna die one day.
1089
00:53:59.159 --> 00:54:06.519
That's what my sinnate just tell me. And then the
1090
00:54:06.559 --> 00:54:10.840
note on the photocopy of the hand of Victor attached
1091
00:54:10.840 --> 00:54:15.039
to the sign all gates says free the goat. As
1092
00:54:15.119 --> 00:54:17.119
he's passing by, they all say free the goat on it.
1093
00:54:18.119 --> 00:54:19.000
I didn't even touch that.
1094
00:54:19.079 --> 00:54:20.760
Yeah, I think I called it towards the end.
1095
00:54:20.960 --> 00:54:22.800
I did at the end because when he's walking through
1096
00:54:22.840 --> 00:54:25.960
and everybody's like getting stored, is like he's going home,
1097
00:54:26.000 --> 00:54:30.639
he's leaving or whatever. See them all plastered everywhere, all right,
1098
00:54:30.679 --> 00:54:34.559
So that my issues. Okay, So I already mentioned one
1099
00:54:34.599 --> 00:54:38.760
about the medicine forums and the English language, so Victor
1100
00:54:38.800 --> 00:54:42.480
can't speak the language fairly well. In the halfway through
1101
00:54:42.480 --> 00:54:44.920
the movie, but somehow understands how the currency works.
1102
00:54:48.719 --> 00:54:51.559
I thought, what do you mean the current doesn't understand
1103
00:54:51.559 --> 00:54:53.760
but somehow understands how the currency.
1104
00:54:53.440 --> 00:54:57.920
How how the American dollar or quarter works. Like he
1105
00:54:58.559 --> 00:55:01.679
he gets his quarter from turning in the carts and
1106
00:55:01.719 --> 00:55:05.440
then he knows exactly how like a quarter is worth
1107
00:55:05.480 --> 00:55:09.159
how much and a dollar is worth how much. When
1108
00:55:09.199 --> 00:55:12.800
he comes to like his purchasing skills, I.
1109
00:55:12.719 --> 00:55:15.840
Thought he was seeing other people. I thought he saw
1110
00:55:15.880 --> 00:55:19.440
somebody else use them or am I misremembering.
1111
00:55:20.039 --> 00:55:21.239
I don't remember seeing that.
1112
00:55:22.119 --> 00:55:24.400
I don't really remember him. I just remember him putting
1113
00:55:24.400 --> 00:55:26.599
that money on there on the counter that he got
1114
00:55:26.679 --> 00:55:28.519
and then she just gives him the change and he says,
1115
00:55:28.599 --> 00:55:30.639
keep it. He just eats a burger like I think
1116
00:55:30.639 --> 00:55:34.000
he just what can that get me? Yes, the burger
1117
00:55:34.079 --> 00:55:36.519
king one is what I remember. Now he does start
1118
00:55:36.519 --> 00:55:41.239
to buy his suit yeah from huge suit yep. So
1119
00:55:41.400 --> 00:55:44.559
I honestly I think he really is just now I
1120
00:55:44.599 --> 00:55:46.840
will say, if you get if you want to go
1121
00:55:46.880 --> 00:55:49.079
too far down here. When he gets that job at
1122
00:55:49.079 --> 00:55:52.639
that construction company, you're thinking, are they paying him cash?
1123
00:55:52.679 --> 00:55:54.360
Because they surely can't pay him by chat.
1124
00:55:55.679 --> 00:55:57.920
They talk about him being paid cash under the table.
1125
00:55:58.000 --> 00:56:01.119
Oh okay, and he's actually making more even Stanley Couchi's
1126
00:56:01.159 --> 00:56:01.920
Cucci's character.
1127
00:56:04.480 --> 00:56:05.440
I knew it was gonna have it.
1128
00:56:07.920 --> 00:56:10.320
I knew it was gonna happen. At some point Stanley,
1129
00:56:11.400 --> 00:56:13.719
he asked, like how much he's being paid. He's like
1130
00:56:14.199 --> 00:56:16.960
nineteen dollars an hour, Sir. He's like, that's more than
1131
00:56:16.960 --> 00:56:20.599
I make. And I'm like, okay, so if if, if
1132
00:56:20.679 --> 00:56:23.039
you're making less than nineteen an hour and you're about
1133
00:56:23.039 --> 00:56:26.800
to go for this promotion, your boss is making more
1134
00:56:26.800 --> 00:56:29.519
than you obviously, but is he making enough to buy
1135
00:56:29.880 --> 00:56:32.199
a large ass fucking boat like the guy's doing.
1136
00:56:33.159 --> 00:56:36.039
Oh well, you know he listened. He may not know
1137
00:56:36.039 --> 00:56:39.920
how to manage. He's a bad money in.
1138
00:56:39.920 --> 00:56:42.039
New York City. He's he's got it like that.
1139
00:56:42.159 --> 00:56:45.519
I am, yeah, I don't. I don't really remember him.
1140
00:56:45.599 --> 00:56:48.480
Like again, I kind of put that under like piecing together,
1141
00:56:48.559 --> 00:56:51.360
where he sees if he has it, he can buy stuff,
1142
00:56:51.360 --> 00:56:53.239
how much everything is. I don't think it's really I
1143
00:56:53.280 --> 00:56:55.400
don't think he cares, at least at that stage of
1144
00:56:55.440 --> 00:56:58.079
burger king, where I don't even think he knows. He's
1145
00:56:58.119 --> 00:57:00.000
just found the coins and through it.
1146
00:57:00.559 --> 00:57:03.119
That's the impression I got, like he just puts it down,
1147
00:57:03.320 --> 00:57:06.360
like looks up like what what can I get with
1148
00:57:06.400 --> 00:57:07.679
this kind of deal?
1149
00:57:08.920 --> 00:57:12.079
Possibly? And then really, the one, the one thing this
1150
00:57:12.119 --> 00:57:13.800
has nothing to do with Hanks, this has to do
1151
00:57:13.840 --> 00:57:17.039
with whoever wrote this shit, is how the hell is
1152
00:57:17.159 --> 00:57:21.119
Zoe marrying a guy she's never really met just because
1153
00:57:21.159 --> 00:57:24.800
Tom Hanks is playing syrian O de bergiact. That was a.
1154
00:57:24.719 --> 00:57:27.320
Little I was like I had to stop and be like, wait,
1155
00:57:27.400 --> 00:57:29.599
did I miss the scene where like they flirt with
1156
00:57:29.639 --> 00:57:30.840
each other or something?
1157
00:57:30.960 --> 00:57:34.199
Yeah, I walks by her than one scene liver food,
1158
00:57:34.360 --> 00:57:38.280
and then he's just looking back at her like, uh,
1159
00:57:38.719 --> 00:57:39.840
he's about himself.
1160
00:57:40.000 --> 00:57:43.000
I Uh, I'm with you on that one. There needed
1161
00:57:43.000 --> 00:57:45.719
to be a lot more to that, or at least
1162
00:57:45.760 --> 00:57:49.360
maybe like they were they were lovers and he's trying
1163
00:57:49.360 --> 00:57:51.400
to get them back together and not like meeting them.
1164
00:57:51.480 --> 00:57:52.880
That would have been an easy solution.
1165
00:57:53.079 --> 00:57:56.119
Yeah, And then I think, oh my god, maybe there's
1166
00:57:56.119 --> 00:57:59.440
a twist in here. They're trapped at the airport and
1167
00:57:59.480 --> 00:58:02.400
they're the only ones who can be together. You see.
1168
00:58:03.239 --> 00:58:06.840
That's that's about as much of a stretch as putting
1169
00:58:06.920 --> 00:58:09.719
up the Spock sign and then turning your hand to
1170
00:58:09.800 --> 00:58:10.960
reveal you've put the ring on.
1171
00:58:11.159 --> 00:58:14.400
Yeah, I forgot that. I'll be honest, I didn't even
1172
00:58:14.480 --> 00:58:17.400
I forgot Zoe Seldon and Diego Diego were even in
1173
00:58:17.480 --> 00:58:20.599
this much less that they got married in there without
1174
00:58:20.639 --> 00:58:24.480
ever seeing each other. So that's a bit the relationship
1175
00:58:24.519 --> 00:58:26.400
they form of Tom Hanks. You can still do that
1176
00:58:26.480 --> 00:58:29.800
without having them either fall in love or you don't
1177
00:58:29.800 --> 00:58:32.159
need like, okay, that's fine, but like they don't have
1178
00:58:32.199 --> 00:58:34.719
to get married, like you can at least be like,
1179
00:58:34.760 --> 00:58:35.400
oh yeah.
1180
00:58:35.480 --> 00:58:38.679
Really on a date? Yeah, they finally say hi, the
1181
00:58:38.800 --> 00:58:39.880
date was.
1182
00:58:41.480 --> 00:58:45.599
Or I'm sorry the wedding was, Like what purpose did
1183
00:58:45.639 --> 00:58:46.400
it really serve?
1184
00:58:46.519 --> 00:58:49.159
It moved nothing for the story? Yeah, yeah, and I
1185
00:58:49.159 --> 00:58:51.760
will say it was a subplot that I was invested
1186
00:58:51.800 --> 00:58:54.880
in and then it just got it just shipped the
1187
00:58:54.920 --> 00:58:56.719
bed completely.
1188
00:58:58.239 --> 00:59:00.559
Yeah. No, I'm I'm with you on that one. Not
1189
00:59:00.679 --> 00:59:02.679
that I didn't like them, I just don't know I
1190
00:59:02.760 --> 00:59:05.840
like them below, Yeah, I just don't. I don't know
1191
00:59:05.920 --> 00:59:08.760
how we got from point A to point B to
1192
00:59:09.480 --> 00:59:10.360
getting married in that.
1193
00:59:10.599 --> 00:59:13.440
Yeah, at the airport, he's going up each day asking
1194
00:59:13.480 --> 00:59:16.440
all these various questions to get information about her, and
1195
00:59:16.559 --> 00:59:19.119
she knows the reason why there's some mystery guy who's
1196
00:59:19.119 --> 00:59:22.280
interested in me. And then it just goes away for
1197
00:59:22.480 --> 00:59:26.119
like a good thirty minutes of the movie. Yeah, and
1198
00:59:26.119 --> 00:59:28.119
then he shows up. I need you to do one
1199
00:59:28.199 --> 00:59:31.000
last thing. Yeah, I'm like, fuck her where?
1200
00:59:31.079 --> 00:59:33.519
Yeah, like can you not go and get like just
1201
00:59:33.559 --> 00:59:34.280
get on the date?
1202
00:59:34.360 --> 00:59:37.760
I need like about just four minutes. Yeah, of shit
1203
00:59:37.880 --> 00:59:41.519
going on. That's really all I've got. You know again,
1204
00:59:41.559 --> 00:59:44.280
I didn't hate the film. I gave it two and
1205
00:59:44.320 --> 00:59:48.079
a half stars on Letterbox, so I'm that's a solid C.
1206
00:59:49.559 --> 00:59:52.039
So I just had some issues with the film, and
1207
00:59:52.559 --> 00:59:54.480
like I said, it's an okay film. I just didn't
1208
00:59:54.480 --> 00:59:56.719
think it was a great Hanks film or Spielberg film.
1209
00:59:57.039 --> 01:00:00.800
And we can agree to disagree, but we go and
1210
01:00:00.840 --> 01:00:04.880
we have anything else to add about the Terminal.
1211
01:00:06.920 --> 01:00:13.119
I I think it's a very underrated Hanks and Spielberg film.
1212
01:00:13.360 --> 01:00:15.360
I get it's not as big or as flashy as
1213
01:00:16.320 --> 01:00:19.119
there are others, not even together, just other films that
1214
01:00:19.199 --> 01:00:23.800
each have done. But yeah, I just like the generosity
1215
01:00:23.840 --> 01:00:26.719
and that, like I said, it's a very sweet, tenderhearted
1216
01:00:27.679 --> 01:00:32.400
film that doesn't have to do a whole lot, And
1217
01:00:32.599 --> 01:00:35.840
I for quite I kind of forgot what his reason was,
1218
01:00:36.400 --> 01:00:43.000
and it touches the soul what he did for his dad.
1219
01:00:44.119 --> 01:00:46.400
Honestly, the whole time I was thinking there was going
1220
01:00:46.480 --> 01:00:49.000
to be like remains, and he was there.
1221
01:00:49.119 --> 01:00:51.840
I kind of feel like that's what I wanted you
1222
01:00:51.880 --> 01:00:54.800
to think of, Like he had to go here to
1223
01:00:54.840 --> 01:00:55.960
spread the.
1224
01:00:55.599 --> 01:00:58.239
Time is the best thing.
1225
01:00:59.280 --> 01:01:02.000
See. I like I like that he like what it
1226
01:01:02.199 --> 01:01:05.239
what it meant for his dad. And then the it's
1227
01:01:05.320 --> 01:01:08.079
kind of the one that got away. And then and
1228
01:01:08.119 --> 01:01:09.599
I even like the way they did it and the
1229
01:01:09.599 --> 01:01:11.599
way it ends, like it's not that he has to
1230
01:01:11.679 --> 01:01:15.519
chase this guy down or anything like it, like you
1231
01:01:15.559 --> 01:01:17.840
know all the dramas in the airport, when he gets out,
1232
01:01:17.880 --> 01:01:21.800
gets it, goes home. I like the ending because that's
1233
01:01:21.840 --> 01:01:24.960
like to me, it's like, look what all he did
1234
01:01:26.119 --> 01:01:29.039
when he probably could have gotten it in a totally
1235
01:01:29.079 --> 01:01:32.840
different way, but that's not that wasn't his journey.
1236
01:01:32.880 --> 01:01:35.639
I would have been like, hey, dude, these fifty three
1237
01:01:35.719 --> 01:01:39.000
other jazz greats sit my dad in an autograph. What's your deal?
1238
01:01:39.239 --> 01:01:41.719
Yeah, now he could have confronted him, Yeah he could have.
1239
01:01:42.280 --> 01:01:46.000
I will say the jazz artist in the movie is
1240
01:01:46.039 --> 01:01:46.960
the real person.
1241
01:01:47.519 --> 01:01:51.079
That's Oh is it actually if that was the real dude?
1242
01:01:52.639 --> 01:01:55.239
So yeah, so let me ask this one before we
1243
01:01:55.360 --> 01:01:58.880
move on. This will be a second like Mount Rushmore question. Then,
1244
01:01:58.960 --> 01:02:02.239
out of the five films they've done together, where does
1245
01:02:02.280 --> 01:02:02.760
this rank?
1246
01:02:04.840 --> 01:02:05.039
Now?
1247
01:02:05.079 --> 01:02:07.360
I haven't seen all five. I haven't seen the posts,
1248
01:02:07.400 --> 01:02:08.519
but i've seen four of the five.
1249
01:02:09.719 --> 01:02:14.480
Ah, this, I think this is the only one I've
1250
01:02:14.519 --> 01:02:16.800
seen that they've done together.
1251
01:02:18.199 --> 01:02:20.880
Just you have homework, homework, sir, Yeah, I do.
1252
01:02:21.679 --> 01:02:25.480
I would say not that it's I wouldn't rank these
1253
01:02:25.719 --> 01:02:32.840
on like the best made films, but as far as
1254
01:02:32.920 --> 01:02:39.360
my enjoyment of them, I would probably I would probably
1255
01:02:39.400 --> 01:02:42.400
put this at number three.
1256
01:02:42.639 --> 01:02:45.159
I'm assuming behind catch Me in Private?
1257
01:02:45.239 --> 01:02:49.239
Right, yeah, actually, I my Now, it's been a while
1258
01:02:49.280 --> 01:02:51.280
since i've seen bridges By as I liked it, I
1259
01:02:51.320 --> 01:02:54.079
didn't love it, and the Post was good, but it
1260
01:02:54.199 --> 01:02:58.079
wasn't you know again in the in the big scheme
1261
01:02:58.119 --> 01:03:00.159
of things, as far as Spielberg, Tom makes stuff. But
1262
01:03:00.480 --> 01:03:02.159
it would actually be the order they came out in
1263
01:03:02.360 --> 01:03:04.639
Saving Private, Ryan would be first, catch me if you can,
1264
01:03:04.719 --> 01:03:06.480
then the terminal, then bridges Spies in the.
1265
01:03:06.400 --> 01:03:12.840
Post and Stoney's putting this first.
1266
01:03:13.440 --> 01:03:15.559
I can read it. Catch Me if you can, and
1267
01:03:15.599 --> 01:03:16.400
then the terminal.
1268
01:03:18.840 --> 01:03:23.840
I've seen four of the five. Yeah, i'd gone saving
1269
01:03:23.880 --> 01:03:27.039
Private Ryan Bridge Spies, catch me if you can, and
1270
01:03:27.079 --> 01:03:31.280
then the terminal, and I'd probably just because of the
1271
01:03:31.320 --> 01:03:34.239
subject matter as such, i'd probably put it ahead of
1272
01:03:34.280 --> 01:03:36.280
the posts if I was there ever finally see.
1273
01:03:36.119 --> 01:03:38.599
It, I thank you. I think you probably would.
1274
01:03:39.880 --> 01:03:43.360
But yeah, that's all I have for the terminal. I'm
1275
01:03:43.400 --> 01:03:45.960
ready to talk a little deeper about Tom Hanks if
1276
01:03:45.960 --> 01:03:47.199
we want to before we get out of here.
1277
01:03:47.519 --> 01:03:50.840
No, this is another impossible question to answer to only
1278
01:03:50.880 --> 01:03:51.639
pick four, but.
1279
01:03:51.840 --> 01:03:55.159
Mine were kind of easy. But like your favorite Tom
1280
01:03:55.199 --> 01:03:56.079
Hanks rolls.
1281
01:03:57.719 --> 01:04:03.079
Yeah, So I I took this as like my favorite
1282
01:04:03.679 --> 01:04:08.000
like characters, not necessarily, not necessarily how good he did
1283
01:04:08.159 --> 01:04:12.000
or how good the movie was, but just the characters.
1284
01:04:12.320 --> 01:04:15.719
I wasn't that big of a fan of Forrest Gump,
1285
01:04:15.960 --> 01:04:20.360
but I like the character. I don't know what box
1286
01:04:20.400 --> 01:04:24.079
you would put the Polar Express in, but I liked
1287
01:04:24.159 --> 01:04:27.519
him in The Polar Express and the myriad of characters
1288
01:04:27.519 --> 01:04:31.480
that he plays there. Road to Perdition is one of
1289
01:04:31.480 --> 01:04:33.760
my favorites of his. And then I think I would
1290
01:04:33.760 --> 01:04:35.440
put the Terminal on there for me.
1291
01:04:37.239 --> 01:04:39.559
Yeah, I mean, I kind of thought about doing it
1292
01:04:39.599 --> 01:04:45.360
the same way, which I guess. I'm I feel like
1293
01:04:45.440 --> 01:04:48.119
the Toy Story movie should be mentioned. I probably wouldn't
1294
01:04:48.119 --> 01:04:51.199
put that in my Rushmore because mine it's okay, I
1295
01:04:51.199 --> 01:04:54.199
would just say because it's a voice acting. But I
1296
01:04:54.239 --> 01:05:00.079
do feel like he is Woody. I mean, my my
1297
01:05:00.159 --> 01:05:02.079
son will know him as Woody, just like I know
1298
01:05:02.159 --> 01:05:04.639
him as Woody. But I'm gonna put that aside. I
1299
01:05:04.679 --> 01:05:13.519
am gonna save Forrest Gump. YEA wrote a perdition. I mean,
1300
01:05:13.599 --> 01:05:19.039
I feel like probably Saving Private Ryan Captain Miller. Ye.
1301
01:05:19.599 --> 01:05:24.719
And this last one is tough because I actually liked
1302
01:05:25.039 --> 01:05:31.280
both of them, but I would probably go I'd probably
1303
01:05:31.280 --> 01:05:34.760
go Castaway, okay. H The Green Mile was another one
1304
01:05:34.800 --> 01:05:36.880
that I like. I like that movie, but I really
1305
01:05:36.920 --> 01:05:39.039
like him in it, but I'd stick with Cass.
1306
01:05:39.119 --> 01:05:42.280
I'm kind of shocked one of mine wasn't mentioned, So
1307
01:05:42.440 --> 01:05:45.960
Forrest Gump obviously I went Woody as well. I went
1308
01:05:46.000 --> 01:05:48.840
Captain Miller from Saving Private Ryan, and then I went
1309
01:05:48.920 --> 01:05:50.880
Jimmy Duggan A League of their Own.
1310
01:05:51.400 --> 01:05:57.519
M Yeah, but I I I feel like I love
1311
01:05:57.599 --> 01:05:59.119
him in that film, and that's the thing that's the
1312
01:05:59.159 --> 01:05:59.960
tough thing. Tom Hanks.
1313
01:06:00.000 --> 01:06:02.320
I don't think that's a good film without him, but no,
1314
01:06:02.360 --> 01:06:05.599
it's not. And I don't think anybody. Maybe somebody could
1315
01:06:05.599 --> 01:06:07.440
have pulled that off, but I couldn't tell you who
1316
01:06:07.960 --> 01:06:09.400
could have done a better job than him.
1317
01:06:09.480 --> 01:06:12.199
I'm not even like, I like Castaway, but to me
1318
01:06:12.400 --> 01:06:16.760
like his performance. You what is it without him? I mean,
1319
01:06:16.920 --> 01:06:20.199
you know what I mean? And yeah, just Wilson so
1320
01:06:21.280 --> 01:06:23.920
but yeah, I think the one that would probably surprise
1321
01:06:24.000 --> 01:06:26.159
most people, and I have a feeling a lot of
1322
01:06:26.199 --> 01:06:28.360
people probably have not seen it is Road to Perdition.
1323
01:06:29.159 --> 01:06:31.079
I haven't seen It to Pradition.
1324
01:06:31.159 --> 01:06:34.039
Very I feel like, in speaking, Sam Mendez did do
1325
01:06:34.119 --> 01:06:38.880
that one, and it was the last live action role
1326
01:06:39.679 --> 01:06:43.400
for Paul Newman because he did he was the voice
1327
01:06:43.599 --> 01:06:48.239
in Cars, so that came out later. But I love it.
1328
01:06:48.320 --> 01:06:52.480
Jude Law is in it. It's so well done and
1329
01:06:52.519 --> 01:06:54.920
I love it, and I love Daniel Craig is in it.
1330
01:06:55.679 --> 01:06:59.480
I love that scene. Paul Newman says, I was hoping
1331
01:06:59.519 --> 01:07:01.440
it'd be you and it's raining.
1332
01:07:01.679 --> 01:07:04.199
Oh boy, cinema, it's so good.
1333
01:07:04.280 --> 01:07:06.199
I would love to see that in a movie theater.
1334
01:07:06.320 --> 01:07:09.599
Again, Hey, why are we getting a Greyhound sequel?
1335
01:07:09.920 --> 01:07:10.280
We are.
1336
01:07:11.000 --> 01:07:15.480
It's on his list of upcoming gray Oh, along with
1337
01:07:15.639 --> 01:07:16.400
Toy Story five.
1338
01:07:16.480 --> 01:07:19.480
Oh my god, I kind of forgot about Greyhound.
1339
01:07:19.679 --> 01:07:20.400
It was not good.
1340
01:07:21.480 --> 01:07:23.639
I mean I saw it, I just forgot about it.
1341
01:07:23.840 --> 01:07:25.239
I think that might have been the first thing I
1342
01:07:25.239 --> 01:07:25.960
saw on Apple.
1343
01:07:26.920 --> 01:07:28.599
Yeah, I think that's what a lot of people got Apple.
1344
01:07:29.039 --> 01:07:30.119
Probably watched it.
1345
01:07:31.039 --> 01:07:33.719
Watched it with my father in law in town on
1346
01:07:33.800 --> 01:07:37.920
a movie night. We sat pop popcorn Fantastic and then
1347
01:07:37.960 --> 01:07:41.239
it started pouring down rain, which was nice for the
1348
01:07:41.280 --> 01:07:44.280
atmosphere of the movie. And then we came upstairs and
1349
01:07:44.360 --> 01:07:48.360
realized that rain was pouring in our bedroom window. Yeah,
1350
01:07:49.199 --> 01:07:51.000
that's when we discovered. It was our first year in
1351
01:07:51.039 --> 01:07:53.320
the home, and that's when we discovered that when they
1352
01:07:53.440 --> 01:07:56.079
repaired the windows from the tornado, they did not go
1353
01:07:56.119 --> 01:07:59.519
through and actually seal around the window, so rain was
1354
01:07:59.639 --> 01:08:00.280
just woring.
1355
01:08:00.360 --> 01:08:02.760
Is what a great memory of Grayhoun.
1356
01:08:03.159 --> 01:08:05.760
I also almost just had a heart attack because I
1357
01:08:05.760 --> 01:08:09.000
could not find our episodes that we recorded earlier in
1358
01:08:09.039 --> 01:08:12.519
the year that were were saving remembered. It's because we
1359
01:08:12.559 --> 01:08:16.359
did them virtually and they're on the platform we used.
1360
01:08:16.800 --> 01:08:19.000
There's a movie he did that's also an Apple where
1361
01:08:19.000 --> 01:08:22.239
he's like has a friend Robot, Yeah, I like that one.
1362
01:08:23.000 --> 01:08:24.640
Finch Finch, Yeah, I never saw that one.
1363
01:08:24.880 --> 01:08:25.560
I like that one.
1364
01:08:25.640 --> 01:08:28.039
I love News of the World. News of the World
1365
01:08:28.319 --> 01:08:31.479
was a really underrated movie.
1366
01:08:32.119 --> 01:08:34.520
Some older ones of his that don't get much love anymore.
1367
01:08:34.600 --> 01:08:37.680
Is the Money Pits. Yeah, and then Nothing in Common
1368
01:08:37.720 --> 01:08:39.239
that he did with Jackie Gleeson.
1369
01:08:39.760 --> 01:08:42.680
Oh yeah, but see some of those I hadn't seen too,
1370
01:08:42.680 --> 01:08:44.760
because I feel like people probably listen to this and
1371
01:08:44.800 --> 01:08:48.680
think big and splash, like people would probably think of those.
1372
01:08:48.760 --> 01:08:51.359
But he's just I mean, you're talking about spill, I mean,
1373
01:08:51.359 --> 01:08:54.880
what are I can't imagine Tom Hanks looking at his
1374
01:08:54.920 --> 01:08:58.279
filmography and being like, yeah, I did all that.
1375
01:08:59.119 --> 01:09:01.840
Real well has written some short stories too.
1376
01:09:01.800 --> 01:09:03.840
Yeah, yeah, I've got I've got one of them.
1377
01:09:03.880 --> 01:09:06.640
I asked my wife, like, like, would be your four
1378
01:09:06.760 --> 01:09:09.319
and she just said Sleepless and Seattle, Sleepless and Seattle
1379
01:09:09.359 --> 01:09:11.199
Sleepless and Seattle. You got mail.
1380
01:09:14.800 --> 01:09:18.039
That's an example to me of like, it's not like
1381
01:09:18.079 --> 01:09:19.760
a I don't want to say it's not a memorable
1382
01:09:19.840 --> 01:09:26.279
Tom Hanks character, but I don't like it doesn't really
1383
01:09:26.359 --> 01:09:28.279
stand out from his other characters.
1384
01:09:28.920 --> 01:09:32.960
Not necessarily agree, No, I I totally agree with that.
1385
01:09:32.920 --> 01:09:36.199
But I wanted to look at like distinct characters.
1386
01:09:36.399 --> 01:09:36.920
Yeah.
1387
01:09:37.039 --> 01:09:40.560
Well, and when I went through it was kind of like, okay,
1388
01:09:40.800 --> 01:09:44.279
like to me those four which is and honestly, if
1389
01:09:44.279 --> 01:09:46.760
I could squeeze in the Toy story movies, because I
1390
01:09:46.880 --> 01:09:51.359
just don't think these movie characters don't exist without this
1391
01:09:51.520 --> 01:09:54.640
man playing them, Like, I don't think you switch out.
1392
01:09:55.000 --> 01:09:59.880
Forrest Gump wrote a perdition castaway and are you for
1393
01:10:00.079 --> 01:10:05.199
got the other one I've said, But I mean, honestly,
1394
01:10:05.279 --> 01:10:08.880
like Apollo thirteen, Oh, saving Private Ryan's a big one,
1395
01:10:09.119 --> 01:10:13.319
but like Apollo thirteen is one I just don't think Philadelphia.
1396
01:10:14.079 --> 01:10:16.600
I thought about that too, with him in Philadelphia. Yeah,
1397
01:10:16.640 --> 01:10:21.760
and so yeah, man, I mean I liked the question.
1398
01:10:21.640 --> 01:10:25.319
Did he go back to back Academy Awards?
1399
01:10:25.840 --> 01:10:28.199
Yeah, you sure did, and I don't think that'll ever
1400
01:10:28.239 --> 01:10:28.840
happen again.
1401
01:10:29.000 --> 01:10:31.479
And one we didn't mention, which I'm shocked because I
1402
01:10:31.520 --> 01:10:34.159
think we both the three of us enjoyed the film.
1403
01:10:34.319 --> 01:10:38.279
I think was Colonel Tom Parker Parker, Oh.
1404
01:10:37.920 --> 01:10:41.199
Yeah, yeah, that would have been a good one.
1405
01:10:41.319 --> 01:10:41.720
That was.
1406
01:10:42.000 --> 01:10:44.159
Yeah, that's a distinct character.
1407
01:10:44.119 --> 01:10:44.760
Very distinct.
1408
01:10:45.920 --> 01:10:47.960
I think one of my least favorite of his is
1409
01:10:47.960 --> 01:10:49.359
when he did The Lady Killers.
1410
01:10:49.520 --> 01:10:51.319
Oh, that movie was not good, and that's a remake.
1411
01:10:51.359 --> 01:10:53.680
And that's knowing that I think it's a Cohen Brothers. Yeah,
1412
01:10:54.439 --> 01:10:55.520
so I didn't really get into that.
1413
01:10:55.640 --> 01:10:57.319
A lot of people forget he played Walt Disney.
1414
01:10:58.000 --> 01:11:03.439
Yeahs basic yeah, uh, but you just can't get like
1415
01:11:04.479 --> 01:11:06.960
there are some titles and characters and maybe it's just
1416
01:11:07.000 --> 01:11:09.000
the way you kind of hold the film in regard
1417
01:11:09.039 --> 01:11:11.720
as you can't like, you don't get to those other
1418
01:11:12.000 --> 01:11:16.279
really good ones because he's got there's just some that,
1419
01:11:16.880 --> 01:11:19.279
like I said, part of cinema history.
1420
01:11:19.439 --> 01:11:22.239
Like I love the Da Vinci Code, but then I.
1421
01:11:22.159 --> 01:11:23.800
Love his hair in the Da Vinci Code, but.
1422
01:11:23.720 --> 01:11:25.159
Then I hated Angels and Demons.
1423
01:11:25.239 --> 01:11:26.560
Yeah.
1424
01:11:26.880 --> 01:11:29.640
I don't think I ever watched Angels and Demons. And
1425
01:11:29.680 --> 01:11:31.920
I don't think the third one.
1426
01:11:32.920 --> 01:11:33.760
Was there a third one?
1427
01:11:35.960 --> 01:11:38.119
Yeah, crap, I can't remember it now.
1428
01:11:39.720 --> 01:11:41.479
That I'm not aware of it. There was a third one?
1429
01:11:41.479 --> 01:11:43.039
Well, you know he did a movie with Emma Watson
1430
01:11:43.079 --> 01:11:43.760
called The Circle.
1431
01:11:44.159 --> 01:11:47.119
Yep, oh, a man called Auto. I think we have
1432
01:11:47.159 --> 01:11:48.159
a review of that.
1433
01:11:48.079 --> 01:11:51.039
Over yea, it is.
1434
01:11:52.760 --> 01:11:53.720
Captain Phillips.
1435
01:11:54.239 --> 01:11:56.279
That's another one. I kind of thought, because I thought
1436
01:11:56.399 --> 01:11:59.399
when he played solely too. But I love Captain Phillips.
1437
01:11:59.600 --> 01:12:02.760
I remember being borderline piss that he didn't get nominated
1438
01:12:03.079 --> 01:12:07.319
for Best Actor. He deserved that nomination for Captain Phillips.
1439
01:12:06.840 --> 01:12:12.239
Inferno De Bank Your Code.
1440
01:12:12.359 --> 01:12:13.359
I never saw that one.
1441
01:12:13.399 --> 01:12:15.079
I think that one's the one that had you and
1442
01:12:15.119 --> 01:12:15.760
McGregor in it.
1443
01:12:16.000 --> 01:12:18.680
I think we can all agree his most underrated performance
1444
01:12:18.720 --> 01:12:21.079
of all time character of all time is David S. Pumpkins.
1445
01:12:23.000 --> 01:12:26.760
Yeah, yeah, no, that's that's a good way to end this.
1446
01:12:27.039 --> 01:12:31.279
Yeah, let's do that, guys. It's how I wish it
1447
01:12:31.319 --> 01:12:34.520
was still Halloween season, but it's holiday season. Tell these

It's simply Stephen mccash. There's the only two places you
1466
01:13:28.520 --> 01:13:31.079
need to really worry about my only fans. I haven't
1467
01:13:31.119 --> 01:13:34.279
given out yet, but cheers to another episode of drinking
1468
01:13:34.319 --> 01:13:36.520
with where we've explored the films that have come of age,
1469
01:13:36.560 --> 01:13:38.720
just like a fine wine. As we raise our glasses
1470
01:13:38.760 --> 01:13:41.720
to movies turning twenty one, we've laughed, reminisced, and maybe
1471
01:13:41.760 --> 01:13:44.079
shed a tier two over the timeless classics. So until
1472
01:13:44.079 --> 01:13:46.760
next time, mayor drinks. We called your conversations lively and
1473
01:13:46.800 --> 01:13:50.640
your movie night's unforgettable. Drink responsibly please, and remember age
1474
01:13:50.760 --> 01:13:53.039
is just a number, but great films or forever, and
1475
01:13:53.079 --> 01:13:55.640
we'll see you next time or next year. Rather because
1476
01:13:55.680 --> 01:13:57.079
I have to return some videotapes
