Freak the Mighty by Rodman Philbrick

WEBVTT
00:07.253 --> 00:07.733
[SPEAKER_00]: Hi guys.
00:08.034 --> 00:08.554
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm Bri.
00:08.895 --> 00:09.635
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm Ali.
00:09.775 --> 00:11.037
[SPEAKER_00]: This is off script.
00:11.937 --> 00:14.900
[SPEAKER_00]: If you think about it, books are potential scripts for roomies.
00:15.481 --> 00:20.966
[SPEAKER_00]: When this adaptation happens, typically it's disappointing because they went off script.
00:21.627 --> 00:25.150
[SPEAKER_00]: In this series, we will be talking about how off script they went.
00:31.876 --> 00:32.877
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm ready.
00:32.897 --> 00:37.041
[SPEAKER_00]: Are we ready?
00:37.190 --> 00:37.914
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm just kidding.
00:37.954 --> 00:39.080
[SPEAKER_00]: I was about to do our hello.
00:40.870 --> 00:42.137
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm really close to like
00:43.838 --> 00:46.561
[SPEAKER_00]: being done with a chunk of the website.
00:46.581 --> 00:47.702
[SPEAKER_00]: And I just, well, that's good.
00:47.722 --> 00:48.603
[SPEAKER_00]: It was just that chunk.
00:49.224 --> 00:49.845
[SPEAKER_00]: I really got it.
00:50.646 --> 00:52.868
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm holding this up as we both need to go to bed.
00:54.330 --> 00:55.411
[SPEAKER_00]: You're like, we're all sick.
00:56.012 --> 00:59.535
[SPEAKER_00]: Cool, let's say I'm just like, we can do that.
00:59.556 --> 01:02.799
[SPEAKER_00]: We work on this website, but I can do any other time.
01:03.420 --> 01:07.665
[SPEAKER_00]: Because we need our great anti-social network, and then we're last, our last two.
01:08.826 --> 01:11.249
[SPEAKER_00]: Pride Green Tomatoes is the very last, I think.
01:12.210 --> 01:13.491
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, and a beautiful mind.
01:13.572 --> 01:19.619
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, that's the book you need to be afraid of, Ali.
01:20.140 --> 01:21.101
[SPEAKER_00]: It looks so boring.
01:21.542 --> 01:26.367
[SPEAKER_00]: I like it because I got the cover of it and I'm like, what the heck is this?
01:26.387 --> 01:27.128
[SPEAKER_00]: It looks so boring.
01:27.549 --> 01:34.798
[SPEAKER_00]: Do you remember, I put you down as movie because this is a movie that we watched in a high school health class.
01:35.779 --> 01:37.361
[SPEAKER_00]: It is one of my favorite movies.
01:37.781 --> 01:39.343
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't remember it at all.
01:39.526 --> 01:40.507
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god.
01:40.527 --> 01:43.531
[SPEAKER_00]: It's, are we sure I watched it?
01:44.752 --> 01:49.959
[SPEAKER_00]: It was in that one dude's health class, who literally had us watch movies that weren't even related to health.
01:51.521 --> 01:57.308
[SPEAKER_00]: I only ever, remember taking health from one teacher and I did, it was a girl.
01:59.110 --> 02:00.291
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, you didn't have him.
02:00.312 --> 02:01.873
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, you didn't haven't watched this.
02:01.893 --> 02:05.618
[SPEAKER_00]: And I guess you got to read the damn book for a
02:05.733 --> 02:06.915
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh god.
02:06.935 --> 02:07.958
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
02:08.459 --> 02:09.481
[SPEAKER_00]: Great.
02:09.501 --> 02:12.246
[SPEAKER_00]: The movie is immensely better.
02:12.287 --> 02:13.730
[SPEAKER_00]: How do you know?
02:13.770 --> 02:14.271
[SPEAKER_00]: You've done both?
02:15.874 --> 02:18.780
[SPEAKER_00]: I am about 20% of the way through the book.
02:19.030 --> 02:23.418
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, why are you reading the last books for Leonardo?
02:24.059 --> 02:29.189
[SPEAKER_00]: No, it's because it's like, little women is a book that I have that I'm physically reading.
02:29.329 --> 02:30.792
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm physically reading that.
02:31.373 --> 02:36.462
[SPEAKER_00]: So I was trying to find one that the Libby had for me to do audiobooks.
02:36.702 --> 02:39.267
[SPEAKER_00]: So I could use that as my workout book.
02:39.550 --> 02:40.471
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, got it.
02:40.672 --> 02:46.620
[SPEAKER_00]: And because that I literally only listened to for like a half hour every workout, right?
02:47.141 --> 02:50.686
[SPEAKER_00]: So I was like, I don't need it to be something that I need to do in like a month.
02:52.569 --> 03:07.330
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm kind of glad I did that because I'm also really glad that you are the one who takes notes on the books because there have been times when I'm like, who the fuck are we talking about right now?
03:07.664 --> 03:21.600
[SPEAKER_00]: I am thoroughly confused, it feels like if you're going to be a biography, you should be about the person you're supposed to be about, not about a bunch of other people he knew.
03:22.782 --> 03:22.882
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
03:22.902 --> 03:24.644
[SPEAKER_00]: But the movie is really interesting, Ali.
03:24.764 --> 03:28.068
[SPEAKER_00]: It's really good, Russell Crowe's in it, it's great movie.
03:28.749 --> 03:29.990
[SPEAKER_00]: I freaking love the movie.
03:30.531 --> 03:31.512
[SPEAKER_00]: OK.
03:32.150 --> 03:37.799
[SPEAKER_00]: I think I already have a, like, what one was your saddest book of the season?
03:38.621 --> 03:39.462
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, perfect.
03:39.582 --> 03:44.190
[SPEAKER_00]: I was really fucking excited for this book and then literally like two seconds into it.
03:44.270 --> 03:48.417
[SPEAKER_00]: I realized first off, I don't like the girl who's audio book narrating it.
03:49.038 --> 03:54.066
[SPEAKER_00]: Second off, I was like, this is not what the fucking movie is.
03:54.106 --> 03:56.470
[SPEAKER_00]: There's our picture.
03:56.534 --> 03:58.220
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, yeah, that's a good picture.
03:58.240 --> 03:58.701
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll take it.
03:59.444 --> 04:00.347
[SPEAKER_00]: That's your prep.
04:00.548 --> 04:02.033
[SPEAKER_00]: You guys are coming up.
04:02.555 --> 04:07.913
[SPEAKER_00]: Before we introduce ourselves, before we do our thing, you got your picture.
04:07.933 --> 04:08.134
[SPEAKER_00]: That's it.
04:08.154 --> 04:09.177
[SPEAKER_00]: Welcome to OffScript.
04:10.422 --> 04:12.564
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm Ali, and I'm Bree.
04:13.605 --> 04:19.010
[SPEAKER_00]: And we're a podcast that does things while we're sick.
04:19.030 --> 04:19.370
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
04:20.391 --> 04:21.012
[SPEAKER_00]: God.
04:23.414 --> 04:26.297
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm just gonna talk about you guys, the whole episode.
04:27.038 --> 04:31.061
[SPEAKER_00]: This is the most I've talked in the last four days, so my mind's lost.
04:31.622 --> 04:33.644
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, you guys, we compare books to their movies.
04:33.864 --> 04:38.168
[SPEAKER_00]: And today we're doing Freak the Mighty or the movie just titled it The Mighty.
04:40.240 --> 04:41.483
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, that's okay.
04:41.543 --> 04:42.164
[SPEAKER_00]: I got fun fact.
04:42.826 --> 04:43.106
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh good.
04:43.547 --> 04:43.688
[SPEAKER_00]: Good.
04:43.708 --> 04:43.948
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
04:46.614 --> 04:46.995
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
04:47.216 --> 04:48.218
[SPEAKER_00]: So our trigger warning.
04:48.238 --> 04:49.040
[SPEAKER_00]: We gave you a picture.
04:50.443 --> 04:50.583
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh-huh.
04:50.603 --> 04:51.164
[SPEAKER_00]: Future books.
04:51.706 --> 04:52.588
[SPEAKER_00]: Are you sure you're learning?
04:53.169 --> 04:53.409
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
04:54.432 --> 04:56.596
[SPEAKER_00]: There is a young death in this story.
04:57.619 --> 05:00.004
[SPEAKER_00]: So, these are synopsis though.
05:00.119 --> 05:11.234
[SPEAKER_00]: A strong unlikely friendship between a large boy with learning disabilities, name max, and a tiny boy with whose brilliant name Kevin who has guys, I don't know what it is.
05:11.755 --> 05:14.419
[SPEAKER_00]: More QCO or QCO?
05:15.120 --> 05:20.768
[SPEAKER_00]: There's no S in that, the QO makes a QO, that would be a more quio.
05:21.429 --> 05:23.191
[SPEAKER_00]: You're trying to call it.
05:23.211 --> 05:25.394
[SPEAKER_00]: Guys, we're going to drill you.
05:25.414 --> 05:28.118
[SPEAKER_00]: We're currishio.
05:28.807 --> 05:30.189
[SPEAKER_00]: Why do I read everything?
05:30.249 --> 05:33.573
[SPEAKER_00]: When did we decide this?
05:34.274 --> 05:35.996
[SPEAKER_00]: Why, you just kind of took it over.
05:36.036 --> 05:37.277
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't like it.
05:37.297 --> 05:51.835
[SPEAKER_00]: Together, they become the formidable duo, freak the mighty, undertaking adventures and overcoming bullying and loss with Kevin tutoring Max and Max giving Kevin mobility.
05:52.716 --> 05:53.237
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
05:53.838 --> 05:54.739
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god, my voice.
05:54.919 --> 05:58.223
[SPEAKER_00]: She's dead.
06:00.903 --> 06:15.454
[SPEAKER_00]: author, Rodman Philbrick, director Peter Chesslam, Chelsea, stream by writer, Charles, live it, live it, live it, leave it, leave it, there you go, don't talk to that.
06:15.474 --> 06:17.899
[SPEAKER_00]: Leave it, leave it, leave it.
06:18.638 --> 06:23.062
[SPEAKER_00]: the book came out in 1993 and the movie came out October 1998.
06:24.163 --> 06:25.264
[SPEAKER_00]: That's five years.
06:26.004 --> 06:27.386
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, that's great.
06:28.947 --> 06:29.588
[SPEAKER_00]: What did you do first?
06:33.071 --> 06:34.232
[SPEAKER_00]: I watched the first.
06:34.252 --> 06:35.032
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I watched the first.
06:35.373 --> 06:35.573
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
06:36.253 --> 06:38.455
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm so used to reading a first and took me a minute.
06:38.475 --> 06:39.156
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, hold on.
06:39.216 --> 06:44.961
[SPEAKER_00]: Which one did I do?
06:45.902 --> 06:47.543
[SPEAKER_00]: I read it first.
06:47.763 --> 06:48.544
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a fifth
06:49.857 --> 06:51.379
[SPEAKER_00]: for ever go.
06:51.399 --> 06:52.000
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, ever.
06:53.221 --> 06:54.162
[SPEAKER_00]: That was so cold.
06:54.202 --> 06:55.183
[SPEAKER_00]: I know.
07:00.429 --> 07:01.050
[SPEAKER_00]: It's okay.
07:01.070 --> 07:01.811
[SPEAKER_00]: You can hate it.
07:03.733 --> 07:06.036
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not the worst book you've made me read.
07:06.617 --> 07:08.158
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, good.
07:08.839 --> 07:10.541
[SPEAKER_00]: But I don't think I would read it again.
07:10.581 --> 07:13.364
[SPEAKER_00]: No, you jump into the end there.
07:14.406 --> 07:16.388
[SPEAKER_00]: Sorry.
07:17.009 --> 07:24.040
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, I don't know, I just, maybe it's because we had two of these stories, like, back-to-back, almost.
07:24.982 --> 07:26.645
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, children death stories.
07:26.665 --> 07:26.805
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
07:27.286 --> 07:27.847
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
07:27.867 --> 07:32.314
[SPEAKER_00]: So then I just felt like, it felt like, been there, done.
07:32.334 --> 07:32.554
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, my God.
07:32.574 --> 07:32.795
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, my God.
07:32.815 --> 07:33.035
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, my God.
07:33.055 --> 07:33.275
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, my God.
07:33.295 --> 07:35.960
[SPEAKER_00]: That's because you watched it first.
07:35.980 --> 07:36.340
[SPEAKER_00]: You got it ruined.
07:36.360 --> 07:36.901
[SPEAKER_00]: Stupid movies ruined it.
07:36.961 --> 07:43.472
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
07:44.161 --> 07:45.322
[SPEAKER_00]: I guess.
07:45.623 --> 07:46.364
[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't pass.
07:46.424 --> 07:49.687
[SPEAKER_00]: I guess, I actually probably was freaking hilarious.
07:50.869 --> 07:53.071
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I'll wait till we get there.
07:54.773 --> 07:55.034
[SPEAKER_00]: What?
07:55.314 --> 07:55.574
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
07:56.776 --> 07:58.317
[SPEAKER_00]: I hope I remember when we get there.
08:00.280 --> 08:00.700
[SPEAKER_00]: For what?
08:00.760 --> 08:01.181
[SPEAKER_00]: What part?
08:01.601 --> 08:02.282
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll help you remember.
08:03.343 --> 08:03.584
[SPEAKER_00]: Then.
08:04.765 --> 08:07.929
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, when he's running and he's going somewhere.
08:09.290 --> 08:09.571
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
08:10.151 --> 08:10.712
[SPEAKER_00]: In the movie.
08:11.112 --> 08:12.474
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
08:13.275 --> 08:13.375
[UNKNOWN]: Okay.
08:14.452 --> 08:15.254
[SPEAKER_00]: So I love this.
08:15.395 --> 08:22.093
[SPEAKER_00]: I remember this was like, one of those fifth grade re-lows that just like I started crying in freaking class.
08:22.454 --> 08:23.095
[SPEAKER_00]: I this one.
08:23.476 --> 08:30.756
[SPEAKER_00]: And then I year later, I still remembered it, but I didn't I remembered the premise of.
08:32.187 --> 08:35.894
[SPEAKER_00]: big guy helps little guy and then how it ended.
08:36.415 --> 08:42.666
[SPEAKER_00]: And I didn't really remember much of the story itself, I just remember it was just such an impactful book for some reason.
08:42.726 --> 08:47.395
[SPEAKER_00]: And so that's why I love it and that is also why I picked it.
08:49.906 --> 08:50.327
[SPEAKER_00]: Good.
08:50.607 --> 08:51.028
[SPEAKER_00]: There we go.
08:51.689 --> 08:52.611
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
08:52.631 --> 08:52.892
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
08:52.912 --> 08:53.673
[SPEAKER_00]: My super fun facts.
08:54.935 --> 08:55.096
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
08:55.557 --> 09:04.273
[SPEAKER_00]: The book King Arthur and his Knights that Kevin reads to Max is seen on screen as Sir James Thomas Nell's 1860 version.
09:04.634 --> 09:07.860
[SPEAKER_00]: Yet the passage read and quoted through the movie are not from this book.
09:08.301 --> 09:09.062
[SPEAKER_00]: They are on free.
09:10.223 --> 09:11.385
[SPEAKER_00]: And then gets Thomas Nulls.
09:12.487 --> 09:12.887
[SPEAKER_00]: What do I say?
09:13.548 --> 09:13.969
[SPEAKER_00]: Nulls?
09:16.253 --> 09:21.201
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, they are free adaptation from various versions of the story paraphrase by the screenwriting.
09:21.221 --> 09:22.863
[SPEAKER_00]: Guys, there was not a lot of fun facts on this one.
09:25.367 --> 09:32.218
[SPEAKER_00]: All though, Keering Culkin and Elden Hansen, shared a majority of screen time.
09:32.258 --> 09:35.303
[SPEAKER_00]: They are not in the top-built cast.
09:35.789 --> 09:37.873
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's because they're chilled and...
09:37.893 --> 09:38.935
[SPEAKER_00]: Exactly.
09:38.955 --> 09:40.538
[SPEAKER_00]: The trailer features me too.
09:41.079 --> 09:41.419
[SPEAKER_00]: I know.
09:42.101 --> 09:43.042
[SPEAKER_00]: The trailer.
09:43.123 --> 09:44.245
[SPEAKER_00]: I was thinking that too.
09:44.265 --> 09:44.525
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
09:44.786 --> 09:48.212
[SPEAKER_00]: So the kids and I went and saw... And my mom went and saw the Lion King play.
09:48.813 --> 09:49.254
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
09:49.835 --> 09:51.398
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm just sitting there like...
09:52.620 --> 09:52.901
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
09:53.261 --> 09:54.063
[SPEAKER_00]: Little Simba.
09:54.183 --> 09:55.165
[SPEAKER_00]: Who's a kid?
09:55.465 --> 09:59.551
[SPEAKER_00]: was on stage way more than Big Simba was.
09:59.611 --> 10:01.513
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, does he get paid more?
10:02.054 --> 10:02.875
[SPEAKER_00]: Or does he get paid less?
10:02.915 --> 10:06.280
[SPEAKER_00]: Cause he's a kid and then like, I just keep like thinking about this with all these people.
10:06.300 --> 10:08.142
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm like, scars gonna get paid the most.
10:08.182 --> 10:10.466
[SPEAKER_00]: Cause he's been on stage throughout the whole play.
10:10.866 --> 10:21.000
[SPEAKER_00]: And then I'm like, I'm literally watching this freaking play and this is what I'm thinking about, like, what the heck.
10:21.757 --> 10:25.324
[SPEAKER_00]: Anyways, so number three, the trailer features you.
10:25.344 --> 10:26.285
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god.
10:26.506 --> 10:28.750
[SPEAKER_00]: What?
10:28.770 --> 10:35.262
[SPEAKER_00]: I forgot, oh, this is like, fuck, I wish I remember this during our mini-sode because this would have been great for the mini-sode.
10:36.183 --> 10:42.575
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, so I never got to talk to you about hanging out with my cousins before Becca's wedding.
10:42.996 --> 10:44.218
[SPEAKER_00]: Secret rather than winter.
10:44.258 --> 10:45.300
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
10:46.158 --> 10:49.944
[SPEAKER_00]: So while we're hanging out, it got brought up that Revin used to act.
10:50.504 --> 10:58.036
[SPEAKER_00]: And without prompting, Revin tells John about his freaking experience auditioning for JoJo Rabbit.
10:58.056 --> 10:59.958
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my gosh!
11:00.259 --> 11:02.903
[SPEAKER_00]: He always like, holy shit, hold on.
11:03.504 --> 11:07.490
[SPEAKER_00]: And then he said, he said it was like a really fun thing and he really wanted it.
11:07.510 --> 11:14.460
[SPEAKER_00]: And he was really, really bummed when he didn't get it.
11:15.655 --> 11:26.646
[SPEAKER_00]: I can't remember, it was probably the casting director or something, but they were also like, they were like, this was a really hard decision to make, like, we really liked you a lot, but we got to go with this kid instead.
11:27.147 --> 11:37.097
[SPEAKER_00]: And then what's funny is, after Revan told me and John this, John and I watched a movie that the kid was in, that's not JoJo Rabbit.
11:37.157 --> 11:40.000
[SPEAKER_00]: That was a movie I hadn't even heard of until John found it.
11:40.880 --> 11:44.464
[SPEAKER_00]: And John was like,
11:44.917 --> 11:49.403
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my gosh, but I was like, oh my god.
11:49.443 --> 11:54.450
[SPEAKER_00]: Then I told him, I was like, dude, I remember when that was happening and he was like, you do?
11:54.470 --> 11:56.713
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, yeah, I was so mad for you.
11:56.773 --> 11:57.994
[SPEAKER_00]: He was like bully me.
11:58.355 --> 12:01.299
[SPEAKER_00]: I wasn't told Scarlett Johansson was in the movie until afterwards.
12:01.339 --> 12:02.741
[SPEAKER_00]: And then I was pissed even more.
12:02.761 --> 12:05.524
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, you can't control it.
12:05.564 --> 12:07.367
[SPEAKER_00]: We brought it up on our podcast.
12:07.907 --> 12:09.169
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I didn't.
12:11.292 --> 12:16.443
[SPEAKER_00]: I was going to actually talk about this because I was so pissed for you, kid.
12:18.146 --> 12:23.096
[SPEAKER_00]: And then I told him, I was like, I was going to use you as my endahollywood reman.
12:23.116 --> 12:25.642
[SPEAKER_00]: He started laughing and he was like, as you should.
12:25.662 --> 12:30.752
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my gosh, that's so funny.
12:31.897 --> 12:33.499
[SPEAKER_00]: Anyway, okay.
12:33.639 --> 12:42.870
[SPEAKER_00]: Anyways, so the trailer of this movie features two scenes that are not used in the final film Max playing with one of Kevin's toys and Kevin getting a computer for Christmas.
12:43.350 --> 12:44.371
[SPEAKER_00]: I just find it interesting.
12:44.832 --> 13:00.790
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I know it's because they make the trailers and then final cuts and everything, but it's so annoying when they, I'm like, where was this in the movie?
13:01.445 --> 13:02.006
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yep.
13:02.366 --> 13:02.566
[SPEAKER_00]: Yep.
13:02.927 --> 13:03.928
[SPEAKER_00]: No, it's like this is done.
13:03.948 --> 13:07.793
[SPEAKER_00]: Plus, also trailers have started to just give away the whole entire fucking movie.
13:07.813 --> 13:08.795
[SPEAKER_00]: So yes, they do.
13:09.676 --> 13:11.098
[SPEAKER_00]: And I don't watch them now.
13:12.299 --> 13:12.480
[SPEAKER_00]: Yep.
13:14.522 --> 13:22.993
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, number four, originally the movie was supposed to be called Freak the Mighty, just like, but mirror max, the studio that distributed movie found the title to offensive.
13:23.574 --> 13:25.016
[SPEAKER_00]: So they changed it to the Mighty.
13:26.238 --> 13:27.159
[SPEAKER_00]: I get it, actually.
13:28.260 --> 13:30.203
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I get it except that.
13:31.229 --> 13:36.245
[SPEAKER_00]: They have to watch it like kid like Kevin name them that.
13:36.265 --> 13:36.968
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's true.
13:37.369 --> 13:40.299
[SPEAKER_00]: It's true, but it is very it's a very offensive.
13:40.539 --> 13:40.740
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
13:40.901 --> 13:42.506
[SPEAKER_00]: I guess yes, true.
13:43.630 --> 13:44.091
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
13:45.286 --> 13:57.783
[SPEAKER_00]: So originally, originally the author of the source book, Rodman Philbrick also wrote the screenplay, but the screenplay was scrappy because it was too much like the book.
13:58.304 --> 14:08.998
[SPEAKER_00]: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
14:08.978 --> 14:11.402
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh that's freaking hilarious.
14:11.422 --> 14:12.104
[SPEAKER_00]: So you're dating.
14:12.624 --> 14:14.247
[SPEAKER_00]: They're like, sorry, we want to make it a movie.
14:14.287 --> 14:17.333
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, you don't want to be exactly the same.
14:19.396 --> 14:20.799
[SPEAKER_00]: Not yours, nothing.
14:21.680 --> 14:22.642
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my gosh.
14:22.662 --> 14:23.423
[SPEAKER_00]: Whatever.
14:23.443 --> 14:24.485
[SPEAKER_00]: They got it close, I guess.
14:25.166 --> 14:26.449
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, for the most part, yeah.
14:27.230 --> 14:28.633
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, should I we get started?
14:28.653 --> 14:30.556
[SPEAKER_00]: Me, yes.
14:30.576 --> 14:32.860
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, we have background on Max's life.
14:33.278 --> 14:36.784
[SPEAKER_00]: So he was kind of a bully as a kid, and he would beat up kids a lot.
14:36.804 --> 14:41.992
[SPEAKER_00]: So he got put into daycare, and hopefully this would stop like him bullying, but it only egged him on more.
14:42.934 --> 14:47.121
[SPEAKER_00]: And there was this little kid there who had crutches, and he always acted like a robot.
14:47.621 --> 14:50.126
[SPEAKER_00]: And in third grade, he saw him again for a glimpse.
14:51.147 --> 14:52.890
[SPEAKER_00]: And,
14:52.870 --> 15:15.385
[SPEAKER_00]: continuing to grow up max lives with his grandma and grandpa and his grandpa would make snide comments about his dad who's not in the picture anymore and it's the summer of eighth grade and he sees the robot kid he moved in down the street yes that that happens for the most part for the most part except that he never knew Kevin before
15:16.833 --> 15:18.437
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that's different.
15:18.778 --> 15:25.614
[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't put that to my first note is in the fourth grade or fourth grade.
15:25.694 --> 15:27.619
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god, in the fourth of July.
15:27.802 --> 15:43.148
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, all right, first Max saw his mom, oh, but you know why, yeah, because I started reading it first because I thought you had seen it first, so I read two chapters, realize I had to watch a person stopped.
15:43.349 --> 15:45.933
[SPEAKER_00]: So I probably just forgot these first two chapters.
15:46.714 --> 15:47.876
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yep, yep, okay.
15:47.897 --> 15:50.421
[SPEAKER_00]: You'll have to tell if it was like that in the movie.
15:50.902 --> 15:51.383
[SPEAKER_00]: That's okay.
15:51.403 --> 15:51.683
[SPEAKER_00]: I will.
15:52.878 --> 15:58.767
[SPEAKER_00]: At first, all Max saw, was a girl about kids' mom, and he thought she was gorgeous.
15:58.927 --> 16:00.229
[SPEAKER_00]: And then he saw the robot kid.
16:00.770 --> 16:05.417
[SPEAKER_00]: And this robot kid was getting mad at the movers, saying, my computer's in there, you better be careful.
16:05.457 --> 16:09.844
[SPEAKER_00]: And then he saw Max, and he points his crunch at Max, and he says, what's your name?
16:09.884 --> 16:14.111
[SPEAKER_00]: And Max didn't answer, he pretended to shoot his crunch at him and say, die, or thing.
16:14.151 --> 16:16.995
[SPEAKER_00]: Just kind of a unique little kid.
16:18.190 --> 16:19.873
[SPEAKER_00]: I remember him saying that in the movie.
16:20.134 --> 16:23.220
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't remember if it was in that scenario, but it happened.
16:24.402 --> 16:26.987
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, I don't think there really was their movers in the movie.
16:27.488 --> 16:28.149
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think so.
16:28.189 --> 16:30.333
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it was just, I think that was just there.
16:30.634 --> 16:31.676
[SPEAKER_00]: Yep, okay.
16:31.696 --> 16:34.261
[SPEAKER_00]: So Max called the robot kid freak.
16:34.281 --> 16:40.232
[SPEAKER_00]: And when he says that he doesn't call him freak to his face, this is Max writing
16:40.212 --> 16:42.214
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like a journal almost like a story.
16:42.234 --> 16:44.236
[SPEAKER_00]: He's writing the story of what happened.
16:44.316 --> 16:50.542
[SPEAKER_00]: And so when he calls him freak, they, they have already become friends and everything.
16:50.562 --> 16:53.205
[SPEAKER_00]: So this is his name for his friend.
16:53.865 --> 16:54.826
[SPEAKER_00]: Like he's not being mean.
16:55.187 --> 16:55.807
[SPEAKER_00]: Does that make sense?
16:56.928 --> 16:57.168
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
16:58.189 --> 17:01.172
[SPEAKER_00]: But no, when you read it the first time, it does not seem like that at all.
17:02.414 --> 17:03.935
[SPEAKER_00]: All like this is a big end of school.
17:04.055 --> 17:08.059
[SPEAKER_00]: Because it really got all you've just given away the whole book.
17:10.790 --> 17:32.365
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, you're right because later in the book Kevin or Freak called themselves Freak the Mighty because he calls himself Freak because a bully called him Freak is like, yeah, we're Freak the Mighty and so that's just why in throughout the whole story Max calls Kevin Freak because Kevin himself gave him that name.
17:34.308 --> 17:36.932
[SPEAKER_00]: Just wanted to be clear.
17:37.570 --> 17:43.135
[SPEAKER_00]: So, Max Offreeks struggling to get something out of the tree, but he couldn't reach it because he's so small.
17:43.636 --> 17:57.469
[SPEAKER_00]: Max goes over and asks him if he wants him to get out of the tree firm, and Freak explains what it is, and he uses all these huge words, like out of a dictionary, and he asks where Max lives, and he's like, he points over there, and he's like, the down under, and he's like, uh, what the heck is that?
17:57.969 --> 18:02.153
[SPEAKER_00]: So, Max pulls him on the slow wagon, because he was standing on the wagon trying to get out of the tree.
18:02.253 --> 18:06.497
[SPEAKER_00]: So, he's like, Kevin totally loves it, he's like, hey,
18:06.477 --> 18:11.702
[SPEAKER_00]: Also, I love that his name is Kevin, and it's his brother's Kevin in home.
18:11.722 --> 18:11.942
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
18:12.402 --> 18:14.064
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
18:14.084 --> 18:15.345
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, that was so cute.
18:15.365 --> 18:15.925
[SPEAKER_00]: Anyways.
18:16.766 --> 18:17.587
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, that does happen.
18:18.067 --> 18:18.888
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think that happens.
18:19.929 --> 18:20.069
[SPEAKER_00]: What?
18:20.089 --> 18:20.589
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, it does.
18:21.530 --> 18:21.750
[SPEAKER_00]: What?
18:22.691 --> 18:22.971
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
18:23.332 --> 18:24.773
[SPEAKER_00]: The little bird thing doesn't happen.
18:25.454 --> 18:26.554
[SPEAKER_00]: You couldn't reach the game.
18:27.015 --> 18:27.615
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it does.
18:27.655 --> 18:28.316
[SPEAKER_00]: What?
18:28.336 --> 18:28.576
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
18:28.596 --> 18:31.078
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't remember.
18:32.640 --> 18:32.740
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
18:32.760 --> 18:36.383
[SPEAKER_00]: I think I was decorating for Riley's birthday party.
18:36.953 --> 18:46.234
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, what's hilarious is part of part of my story with what happens later is because I was also doing other stuff during this movie.
18:46.635 --> 18:47.698
[SPEAKER_00]: But I remember that part.
18:48.139 --> 18:49.181
[SPEAKER_00]: OK, I'll give it to you then.
18:49.742 --> 18:51.206
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, I believe you.
18:51.907 --> 18:52.569
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
18:52.589 --> 18:56.177
[SPEAKER_00]: It might have been like a different toy, but he definitely got something out of the tree for the kid.
18:56.157 --> 19:16.383
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, all right, so he brings him to the house and shows him his room and they get chatting and starts to get to know each other a little bit and he explains and Kevin explains how he loves to read and Max is like, oh, because he hates reading and Kevin's like, hey, I'll give you some books so that you can read it and Max like that's like my least favorite thing to do.
19:16.543 --> 19:18.165
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I have a learning disability.
19:19.293 --> 19:24.302
[SPEAKER_00]: Lady Gwintervere is like, whose freak's mom is like, where are you Kevin Kevin?
19:24.362 --> 19:33.177
[SPEAKER_00]: So she, they take him outside and she sees Max and grabs Kevin and they run away and Max knew because she was scared of him.
19:34.219 --> 19:34.860
[SPEAKER_00]: Cause he's sick.
19:35.922 --> 19:36.664
[SPEAKER_00]: Yep, that happened.
19:36.704 --> 19:39.208
[SPEAKER_00]: So Graham came and let,
19:39.188 --> 19:43.274
[SPEAKER_00]: Max knew that Gwen called to apologize, and she wants him to come over for dinner.
19:43.794 --> 19:48.461
[SPEAKER_00]: And when he was there, he found out that Gwen and his mom were friends when they were younger.
19:48.501 --> 19:54.770
[SPEAKER_00]: And the reason that she freaked out was that he looked so much like his dad.
19:54.810 --> 20:00.117
[SPEAKER_00]: And his father, we find out, is currently in prison and the whole town knows it.
20:00.097 --> 20:05.488
[SPEAKER_00]: and she's so happy that they move back so that they can get this fresh start.
20:06.169 --> 20:10.097
[SPEAKER_00]: And this is where Kevin and Max start to really bond and laugh and enjoy each other's company.
20:11.059 --> 20:14.966
[SPEAKER_00]: To me, differences, Gwen actually comes and apologizes to Max.
20:16.269 --> 20:18.513
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, herself.
20:18.533 --> 20:21.379
[SPEAKER_00]: And also Kevin and Max meet
20:22.338 --> 20:37.782
[SPEAKER_00]: Kind of at school because, oh yeah, yeah, oh because there's that scene with the basketball game where a kid knocks over Kevin and Williams on max and Max doesn't say anything and then Kevin's like, why didn't you say anything.
20:37.762 --> 20:46.393
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, because he gets attention and then Kevin goes and is teaching him how to read and detention and that's when that all starts.
20:46.413 --> 20:46.673
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
20:46.793 --> 21:02.352
[SPEAKER_00]: So now it's 4th of July and Max and Kevin go to the park to watch fireworks and Max and Kevin run into the meanest bullies in town which in the movie were the ones that threw the basketball Kevin starts giving him lip and just like making fun of them
21:03.277 --> 21:06.364
[SPEAKER_00]: And Max is like, what are you doing shut up?
21:06.905 --> 21:11.916
[SPEAKER_00]: Because there's like 20 of them, no, there's probably like five of them, but still, that's more than Max can handle.
21:12.757 --> 21:18.670
[SPEAKER_00]: And luckily the police came, which scares off the bullies and because they had been under age drinking.
21:18.650 --> 21:20.493
[SPEAKER_00]: And he's like, you could have taken the whole crew, right?
21:20.513 --> 21:26.502
[SPEAKER_00]: And he's like, no, which made Kevin crack up because he's like, oh my gosh, I was giving them so much crap.
21:26.582 --> 21:28.706
[SPEAKER_00]: And we couldn't even take them like, well, it was happening right there.
21:29.287 --> 21:31.069
[SPEAKER_00]: And so they watched fireworks, but Kevin can't see.
21:31.089 --> 21:32.632
[SPEAKER_00]: So Max puts him on his shoulders.
21:33.253 --> 21:39.663
[SPEAKER_00]: And Max, or Kevin shouting, like, all the chemical creations and just watching the show.
21:39.723 --> 21:42.367
[SPEAKER_00]: And then they walk home together.
21:42.507 --> 21:46.834
[SPEAKER_00]: And he's on his shoulders.
21:47.658 --> 22:13.243
[SPEAKER_00]: main differences in the movie they don't go to the park together so that it's almost kind of weird that he decides like I'm gonna put this kid on my shoulders yeah that is weird we're not friends yet but you seem like you need to see the firework not that yeah because they were friends by the time they went for the joy yeah and no this is kind of what made them become friends
22:14.388 --> 22:29.291
[SPEAKER_00]: So Kevin is still on his shoulders when they're walking home and all of a sudden they hear Danny who's the bully kid, and he's telling Max, which way to go Kevin's telling which way to go by kicking his feet kind of like a horse, and then they go into a lake he's like, he can't swim.
22:29.351 --> 22:32.937
[SPEAKER_00]: He's like, well, there's nowhere else we can go they're chasing us.
22:32.917 --> 22:53.895
[SPEAKER_00]: So Max got stuck and Kevin is still on his shoulders and the other guys start throwing rocks at them and Kevin whistles Kevin whistles and a cop comes and they let them know about Danny and the cops said yeah, we don't about him will be on that look out for him and they called they said that
22:55.090 --> 22:55.630
[SPEAKER_00]: What's his name?
22:55.871 --> 23:00.635
[SPEAKER_00]: Max's dad murder McLean is not McLean.
23:01.075 --> 23:01.736
[SPEAKER_00]: What's his last name?
23:01.956 --> 23:02.216
[SPEAKER_00]: Caine.
23:02.737 --> 23:03.277
[SPEAKER_00]: Murder Caine.
23:03.357 --> 23:08.022
[SPEAKER_00]: Murder Caine is the, what they called a Max's dad.
23:08.402 --> 23:09.843
[SPEAKER_00]: It's because he murdered someone.
23:11.265 --> 23:12.406
[SPEAKER_00]: Yep, that happened.
23:14.528 --> 23:18.091
[SPEAKER_00]: So any, I love this right.
23:18.451 --> 23:25.097
[SPEAKER_00]: Anytime Max has a question about anything, Kevin makes him look it up in the picture.
23:25.077 --> 23:33.180
[SPEAKER_00]: So they wanted to, let's just showing that like, you know, Kevin is just, let's just showing the difference in there there.
23:34.561 --> 23:38.005
[SPEAKER_00]: Just how different they are, but they're getting along so well.
23:38.025 --> 23:40.328
[SPEAKER_00]: They went on a quest in Kevin Bryant in the hospital.
23:40.808 --> 23:43.712
[SPEAKER_00]: He said, you see that right there, that's where they make bionic people.
23:44.392 --> 23:49.599
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm gonna be the first one that's gonna be official a bionic person be like a robot.
23:50.099 --> 23:59.570
[SPEAKER_00]: And Max believes them, or doesn't believe it first, but Kevin explains, yes, they've done CT scans, X-rays, blood tests, they're making bionic body parts for me.
24:00.051 --> 24:02.914
[SPEAKER_00]: And Max's like, well, so cool.
24:02.894 --> 24:10.421
[SPEAKER_00]: So this part, I was cooking dinner and had my back to the TV so I only heard this part.
24:10.621 --> 24:13.223
[SPEAKER_00]: I did not see this part.
24:13.243 --> 24:16.706
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, you know, I've really pissed off at this movie.
24:16.866 --> 24:18.007
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know what even happened.
24:18.108 --> 24:19.169
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it was all over.
24:19.189 --> 24:21.911
[SPEAKER_00]: It was the whole movie set.
24:21.931 --> 24:22.311
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
24:22.512 --> 24:23.612
[SPEAKER_00]: What do I do?
24:23.633 --> 24:24.093
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
24:24.113 --> 24:27.436
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, gosh.
24:27.896 --> 24:32.040
[SPEAKER_00]: So one night Kevin surprises Max in this room.
24:32.307 --> 24:39.916
[SPEAKER_00]: And he's like, what the fuck are you going in here?
24:40.176 --> 24:40.577
[SPEAKER_00]: What?
24:40.677 --> 24:45.543
[SPEAKER_00]: And then it all clicked.
24:45.603 --> 24:47.545
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, oh, that's funny.
24:47.905 --> 24:56.155
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, okay.
24:57.535 --> 25:01.583
[SPEAKER_00]: So one night Kevin surprises Max in his room and they're like we're going on a quest.
25:02.024 --> 25:07.696
[SPEAKER_00]: That's to be 3 a.m. Because that's to be dark and we're in incognito where we're black outfits and all the source stuff.
25:09.420 --> 25:10.903
[SPEAKER_00]: And um
25:12.537 --> 25:39.591
[SPEAKER_00]: So like went to this place and it's like manhole cover and like there's a purse down there and they pull it out it's soggy yuck growth and turns out it was Danny's crew that stuffed it down there but there was an idea and Kevin's like it's a damsel and distress we must save like goes bring it to her and yeah and so
25:41.174 --> 25:43.537
[SPEAKER_00]: That's where we're at at the end of the chapter.
25:45.259 --> 25:46.901
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, that does happen in the movie.
25:47.321 --> 25:48.562
[SPEAKER_00]: So they go to this trashy place.
25:48.903 --> 25:52.126
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like not a trailer park, but it's like real sketch.
25:52.807 --> 25:58.674
[SPEAKER_00]: And Kevin's like, maybe we should leave, but they had already knocked on the door.
25:59.174 --> 26:01.017
[SPEAKER_00]: And so inside, there were these two people.
26:01.477 --> 26:04.060
[SPEAKER_00]: And it's like, they are just,
26:04.175 --> 26:05.276
[SPEAKER_00]: white trash people.
26:05.596 --> 26:09.460
[SPEAKER_00]: And they look like they're in part of a biker gang and it's just, it's bad.
26:11.262 --> 26:31.262
[SPEAKER_00]: So they're chatting and it will read us the one with the person they, she figures out that she knows Max and she pulls them inside because she's like, oh, Iggy, look, they brought me my
26:31.462 --> 26:39.854
[SPEAKER_00]: We got to go get him like what is it get him out of here because Caines and and she or Laura is like Caines and for life we're fine.
26:39.914 --> 26:45.141
[SPEAKER_00]: And they also gave Kevin crap about his dad leaving.
26:45.181 --> 26:46.743
[SPEAKER_00]: Wait, how did they do his dad left?
26:47.404 --> 26:52.812
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, because they knew him his dad left because he was disabled when it was born and then.
26:53.213 --> 27:11.973
[SPEAKER_00]: uh so that's how we learn background on Kevin's dad and then she's like rub's Kevin said because it's good luck to rub a dwarfs head she says and it's like this all is like cool like you're just sucky people type of thing and finally Kevin and Max ran out of there.
27:12.614 --> 27:21.263
[SPEAKER_00]: So in the bookler at his supposed to be blonde but she's played by uh
27:21.243 --> 27:50.963
[SPEAKER_00]: aka the girl who is a scoli on exfiles and she got bright red hair so she have red hair in the movie also I'm going to assume that in the movie I mean it gets confusing when I read the book second because then I like write what's in the book assuming I'll remember what the movie was
27:50.943 --> 27:58.773
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm assuming that when they meet Loretta and Iggy in the movie, they are not Kevin's not on his shoulders.
27:59.594 --> 28:01.657
[SPEAKER_00]: No, they know.
28:01.677 --> 28:02.158
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, good.
28:02.718 --> 28:07.424
[SPEAKER_00]: And then in the movie, they didn't really bring up Kevin's dad.
28:07.465 --> 28:08.946
[SPEAKER_00]: They brought up Kevin's mom.
28:12.451 --> 28:20.882
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, also in the book, they gave him a reward for
28:21.267 --> 28:21.709
[SPEAKER_00]: They're good.
28:23.375 --> 28:27.269
[SPEAKER_00]: So, schools about to start summer's over.
28:28.092 --> 28:32.830
[SPEAKER_00]: And Kevin convinces his mom to sign the paper to have Max and him in the same class.
28:33.113 --> 28:47.389
[SPEAKER_00]: Graham wasn't sure about this because Kevin's like super highly capable and Max needs special education classes, but finally, Graham in the school agreed they both need each other for friendship reasons.
28:47.970 --> 28:55.458
[SPEAKER_00]: So the first day of school when the teachers asked Max to stand up and say something about himself, but he wouldn't because he doesn't talk him from the class.
28:55.859 --> 29:02.226
[SPEAKER_00]: So Kevin stands up and is like, I'm Kevin, but then he climbs on Max's shoulders
29:02.847 --> 29:06.472
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's a whole class chanting freak the mighty, because he's like, well, we're together.
29:06.492 --> 29:15.385
[SPEAKER_00]: We're afraid the mighty and like the teacher was just, because she was trying to get maxed to talk and Kevin kept talking for her max.
29:15.405 --> 29:17.768
[SPEAKER_00]: And finally, that's what led them to that.
29:17.848 --> 29:19.731
[SPEAKER_00]: And then they found themselves in the prison was office.
29:20.111 --> 29:20.812
[SPEAKER_00]: Does that happen?
29:21.634 --> 29:22.695
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think that happens.
29:23.215 --> 29:24.018
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think so either.
29:24.198 --> 29:27.067
[SPEAKER_00]: My next note is Max got to go to eighth grade.
29:27.529 --> 29:36.297
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm assuming in the movie he did not do that, but I do know that they end up in the principles of his together, but I think that's just because Kevin was trying to get him in the classes with him.
29:36.939 --> 29:37.039
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
29:38.707 --> 29:39.588
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe, I don't remember.
29:39.928 --> 29:42.631
[SPEAKER_00]: At some point, they are chanting for the mighty.
29:42.651 --> 29:45.334
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel like it's at like P for some reason.
29:46.295 --> 29:57.687
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh yeah, they're at the principal's office because Kevin wants to do certain sports, but there are no, you can't, because you're incapable.
29:57.987 --> 29:58.428
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
29:59.229 --> 30:01.431
[SPEAKER_00]: And his mom's like screw that.
30:02.052 --> 30:04.054
[SPEAKER_00]: He can do it with Max.
30:04.074 --> 30:07.077
[SPEAKER_00]: And so that's how they're in the principal's office.
30:07.664 --> 30:08.445
[SPEAKER_00]: So time goes on.
30:08.485 --> 30:36.118
[SPEAKER_00]: Now it's October and Max got's called down to the principal's office and let him know that his father wants to get a hold of him and he has this meltdown and covers his ears as I don't want to like full on free go and finally gets calm down the nurses crying and he's thought it was because he hit her and she's like you didn't but he doesn't believe her and it's just bad and so later that day Kevin Chokes.
30:36.638 --> 30:38.501
[SPEAKER_00]: on American chop sui.
30:38.922 --> 30:40.104
[SPEAKER_00]: Is that what John calls it?
30:40.746 --> 30:41.106
[SPEAKER_00]: It is.
30:41.207 --> 30:41.447
[SPEAKER_00]: It is.
30:41.507 --> 30:42.549
[SPEAKER_00]: I actually had it, too.
30:43.090 --> 30:44.994
[SPEAKER_00]: It's mom made American chop sui while I was there.
30:45.454 --> 30:46.156
[SPEAKER_00]: What is it?
30:46.597 --> 30:47.859
[SPEAKER_00]: We call it Goulash?
30:48.180 --> 30:48.761
[SPEAKER_00]: Is that what we call it?
30:48.781 --> 30:49.823
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, we call it Goulash.
30:49.843 --> 30:51.866
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's it's it's it's Goulash.
30:52.207 --> 30:54.852
[SPEAKER_00]: I think what do you put in it?
30:55.113 --> 30:56.455
[SPEAKER_00]: What do you put in Goulash?
30:56.475 --> 31:00.182
[SPEAKER_00]: Like noodles, meat, tomato noodles.
31:00.162 --> 31:01.524
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, um, elbow noodles.
31:02.446 --> 31:02.747
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
31:02.907 --> 31:03.147
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
31:03.167 --> 31:03.388
[SPEAKER_00]: Sorry.
31:03.468 --> 31:03.828
[SPEAKER_00]: Continue.
31:04.209 --> 31:08.577
[SPEAKER_00]: You said elbows meet some made of sauce.
31:08.617 --> 31:09.719
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's tomato.
31:12.223 --> 31:17.833
[SPEAKER_00]: No, tomato soup mixture and then like basil and seasonings and stuff.
31:18.202 --> 31:19.723
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, so it is slightly different.
31:19.804 --> 31:23.767
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, so I bring things the same up until you got to that tomato paste tomato soup.
31:24.568 --> 31:24.808
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
31:24.869 --> 31:35.259
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's elbow noodles or rotini, meat, tomato sauce, but it's got to be Mama's ragu, is it?
31:35.279 --> 31:35.439
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh.
31:35.459 --> 31:36.039
[SPEAKER_00]: Shawn's mom's in.
31:37.941 --> 31:38.121
[SPEAKER_00]: Ha ha ha.
31:38.141 --> 31:41.705
[SPEAKER_00]: And then it's chopped up tomatoes, chopped up onions.
31:42.045 --> 31:42.225
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
31:42.646 --> 31:43.787
[SPEAKER_00]: Shit, there was some milk.
31:44.493 --> 31:47.983
[SPEAKER_00]: But it's basically the same thing, just a little bit different.
31:48.344 --> 31:49.346
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's exactly the same.
31:49.387 --> 31:53.558
[SPEAKER_00]: We just, my family doesn't like the other tomatoes.
31:53.578 --> 31:54.621
[SPEAKER_00]: So we take it out.
31:55.462 --> 31:59.067
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, I don't like to me though, but I like it in that situation.
31:59.508 --> 32:01.150
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, you know, funny.
32:02.311 --> 32:04.394
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, anyways, it's okay.
32:04.454 --> 32:13.246
[SPEAKER_00]: I know when this is when this got red or said in the movie or whatever, I was like, Oh, my God.
32:14.388 --> 32:16.591
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, of course, I didn't know John.
32:16.651 --> 32:18.874
[SPEAKER_00]: I would be like, what the hell is American chop sui?
32:18.894 --> 32:19.615
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
32:19.635 --> 32:20.897
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, my gosh.
32:22.579 --> 32:23.140
[SPEAKER_00]: So.
32:24.740 --> 32:30.236
[SPEAKER_00]: Kevin's choking on it and he has to get taken to the hospital even though he wakes up and he says he's fine, but it's routine that he has to go to hospital.
32:31.941 --> 32:36.775
[SPEAKER_00]: Yep, that all happens and it turns out when he eats too fast his organs
32:37.480 --> 32:40.607
[SPEAKER_00]: something's going on in there and it's just can't you can't breathe.
32:40.747 --> 32:43.593
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's what ended up happening.
32:44.154 --> 32:55.138
[SPEAKER_00]: So he gets home he has to rest and it turns out his insides are growing but his outsides aren't which is why he needs this robot procedure to get new body parts.
32:55.659 --> 32:57.463
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's a night before Christmas.
32:57.562 --> 32:59.985
[SPEAKER_00]: And Max here's a Grimm and Grimm.
33:00.025 --> 33:01.247
[SPEAKER_00]: He calls his grandpa Grimm.
33:01.908 --> 33:04.131
[SPEAKER_00]: A Grimm and Grimm going at it fighting.
33:04.772 --> 33:08.917
[SPEAKER_00]: And it turns out Killer Cain has been released from prison on parole.
33:09.298 --> 33:11.020
[SPEAKER_00]: And he is a standing order against them.
33:11.340 --> 33:17.529
[SPEAKER_00]: But Grimm still wants to have a gun in the house and Grimm's like absolutely not.
33:18.510 --> 33:21.294
[SPEAKER_00]: And he's like, there's no way he killed my daughter.
33:21.314 --> 33:25.279
[SPEAKER_00]: He's gonna be nowhere getting near my grandson and all this sort of stuff.
33:25.519 --> 33:26.961
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's how we learned that background.
33:27.953 --> 33:29.615
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, difference here is in the movie.
33:30.636 --> 33:34.080
[SPEAKER_00]: Kevin never explains to Max what's going on with him.
33:34.500 --> 33:37.203
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, nope, it's always just I need a bionic body.
33:37.504 --> 33:41.168
[SPEAKER_00]: So they sell by Christmas and they get open and give on Christmas Eve.
33:42.149 --> 33:44.551
[SPEAKER_00]: And the gift that Max opens is from Kevin.
33:45.132 --> 33:50.077
[SPEAKER_00]: And it's this dictionary, but it's a dictionary that Kevin made of all his favorite words.
33:50.778 --> 33:55.243
[SPEAKER_00]: And so because they're out the whole book, Kevin's always using these big words.
33:55.696 --> 34:03.218
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, so when Max is going to sleep, he feels a hand on his mouth, and he's been kidnapped by his dad.
34:04.762 --> 34:08.473
[SPEAKER_00]: This part didn't stick out to you like it did to me.
34:09.297 --> 34:19.092
[SPEAKER_00]: But I have a note about a story that Grandpa tells in the book because it's a story about his like about Cole.
34:19.352 --> 34:20.374
[SPEAKER_00]: I can't remember exactly.
34:20.394 --> 34:24.360
[SPEAKER_00]: It was something about how he got Cole and it's talking when you're something.
34:24.380 --> 34:35.457
[SPEAKER_00]: But I think to solidify that Kevin like Kevin's family knows Max's family Kevin's one who told the story in the movie.
34:36.601 --> 34:38.605
[SPEAKER_00]: Wait, but they don't know each other in the movie.
34:39.327 --> 34:40.930
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, what the heck?
34:41.632 --> 34:42.414
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
34:42.434 --> 34:45.901
[SPEAKER_00]: So they knew each other in the book, but in the movie, Kevin's the one who said it.
34:46.863 --> 34:47.705
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
34:47.725 --> 34:51.032
[SPEAKER_00]: Weird.
34:51.670 --> 35:09.207
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, I was like, why would I, even if like Sam hanging out with your family and I know your mom and I know a story that you're of your moms, why would I then be telling everyone at the dinner table it, like yeah, why wouldn't I just let her tell it.
35:09.187 --> 35:10.188
[SPEAKER_00]: so weird.
35:11.450 --> 35:11.790
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
35:11.930 --> 35:17.197
[SPEAKER_00]: So, uh, whatever his name is, killer came, I don't know, it was first name.
35:17.597 --> 35:24.166
[SPEAKER_00]: He brought, uh, Max to Iggy and Laura to his house, and they're acting like, oh my gosh, the president's here.
35:24.186 --> 35:27.410
[SPEAKER_00]: We have to be extra polite and like they're acting nothing like they were earlier.
35:27.950 --> 35:31.815
[SPEAKER_00]: And they show him to this old woman's apartment that's been on vacation.
35:33.017 --> 35:34.198
[SPEAKER_00]: And
35:34.617 --> 35:40.444
[SPEAKER_00]: This is where Max is dad ties him up and they get a night's sleep.
35:40.464 --> 35:43.047
[SPEAKER_00]: And when he wakes up, Max is talking about Max.
35:43.107 --> 35:55.443
[SPEAKER_00]: I was going to give him a present and letters and or how he's been giving him presents and sending him letters and his grandparents never give it to him and how that's messed up and everything.
35:56.183 --> 36:01.390
[SPEAKER_00]: And then he swore on the Bible that he never killed his mom and all the source stuff.
36:02.151 --> 36:04.033
[SPEAKER_00]: Yep, that happens.
36:04.013 --> 36:09.140
[SPEAKER_00]: So the next day's Christmas and Loretta comes, but Cain wants to talk to Iggy.
36:09.600 --> 36:21.836
[SPEAKER_00]: So eventually Iggy comes and says that he was held up by the cops because the cops are looking for the kid and Cain accused him of turning him in and he's like, no, the quoting book, you guys.
36:22.237 --> 36:24.340
[SPEAKER_00]: The cripple kid was in the car.
36:24.880 --> 36:33.632
[SPEAKER_00]: So Kevin led them here knowing about this place and Cain was
36:34.102 --> 36:35.691
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, this part is slightly different.
36:35.791 --> 36:41.361
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm pretty sure it's just all already in this situation is yeah, I don't think it is really there.
36:42.640 --> 36:46.747
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so yeah, the roll around a part is coming up right here.
36:47.429 --> 36:54.201
[SPEAKER_00]: So they go to another location they hide out for a bit and he ties Max up and gags him and Max is in the total dark, not knowing what to do.
36:55.263 --> 37:02.436
[SPEAKER_00]: And then the roll around it comes in saying like here I have pancakes and like blah blah blah and she's trying to distract him.
37:02.476 --> 37:05.762
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm trying to get.
37:06.873 --> 37:33.623
[SPEAKER_00]: Max out of there and right as she's about to undo his feet here comes Killer Cain and he starts strangling her in the movie the red of like drops a device like I don't even know what it is it I can't remember what it was it's something to try and cut through his bindings For Max so she's not the one trying to help him but she I mean she is but she's not obviously trying to help him but the dad still just try to Strangler
37:34.025 --> 37:38.212
[SPEAKER_00]: uh, Max tries to smack his hands off and like, you killed my mother.
37:38.252 --> 37:39.034
[SPEAKER_00]: I know it was you.
37:39.094 --> 37:46.186
[SPEAKER_00]: And then he shares very detailed things of what he was wearing and what he saw and everything like this.
37:46.667 --> 37:48.631
[SPEAKER_00]: And he's like, man, I wish you wouldn't have done that.
37:49.312 --> 37:53.940
[SPEAKER_00]: And then he turns to kill him because now Max or yeah, Max is a.
37:54.646 --> 37:59.471
[SPEAKER_00]: witness, whereas before he was too scared to say anything, but now he's like, well, you might talk.
38:00.152 --> 38:03.015
[SPEAKER_00]: And so, but then all of a sudden, here comes Kevin with a squirt gun.
38:03.336 --> 38:05.358
[SPEAKER_00]: He's like, guess what I got for Christmas.
38:05.718 --> 38:08.842
[SPEAKER_00]: And it's like, he names all these like chemicals.
38:09.462 --> 38:10.443
[SPEAKER_00]: He's like, it's acid.
38:10.523 --> 38:14.588
[SPEAKER_00]: And he sprays it in, uh, Max's dad's eyes.
38:14.948 --> 38:16.270
[SPEAKER_00]: And they run out to the police.
38:16.850 --> 38:24.619
[SPEAKER_00]: And it turns out
38:25.713 --> 38:26.774
[SPEAKER_00]: And yep, that happens.
38:27.535 --> 38:31.838
[SPEAKER_00]: So Max has a lot of talking to the police station.
38:31.858 --> 38:33.040
[SPEAKER_00]: And Gwen is pissed off.
38:33.060 --> 38:36.042
[SPEAKER_00]: They Kevin went to like on his own.
38:36.102 --> 38:38.204
[SPEAKER_00]: But he's not in trouble anymore.
38:39.225 --> 38:41.948
[SPEAKER_00]: And so Max has a test drive.
38:41.968 --> 38:43.008
[SPEAKER_00]: It's his dad and court.
38:43.109 --> 38:48.113
[SPEAKER_00]: And they just got the phone call, they pled guilty.
38:48.233 --> 38:50.695
[SPEAKER_00]: So he has his original life sentence plus 10 more years.
38:51.376 --> 38:53.678
[SPEAKER_00]: And Kevin's really worried that he's
38:54.687 --> 38:55.228
[SPEAKER_00]: not Kevin.
38:55.789 --> 38:58.734
[SPEAKER_00]: Max is really worried that he's going to grow up and turn into him.
38:58.774 --> 39:09.832
[SPEAKER_00]: And um, Kevin's at the point where he's going to his bionic lab every couple months now to find and Max is like, this is so annoying.
39:09.872 --> 39:11.595
[SPEAKER_00]: Can't you just like, what's going on?
39:15.221 --> 39:18.687
[SPEAKER_00]: This part doesn't really happen apart from Max not wanting to be his dad.
39:19.291 --> 39:29.669
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's Kevin's birthday and he's turning 13, is also the end of the year, and Freak the mighty is almost one year old It's not the end of the year.
39:29.689 --> 39:42.430
[SPEAKER_00]: It's the end of the oh the end of the school year Kevin got a new computer from school Which is the reason in case he has to stay home and Max will have one in school So he can still do school so they can like
39:42.612 --> 39:45.855
[SPEAKER_00]: just go with each other, even if they have to be a part.
39:45.876 --> 39:47.257
[SPEAKER_00]: And Max is really confused.
39:47.437 --> 39:52.062
[SPEAKER_00]: Why he will have to stay home and Graham and Gwen kind of look at each other.
39:52.082 --> 39:55.366
[SPEAKER_00]: And their birthday's going on and Kevin really is an eating.
39:55.426 --> 39:59.971
[SPEAKER_00]: He says he's saving room for cake, but then he doesn't need his cake either.
40:00.011 --> 40:05.937
[SPEAKER_00]: And then Max is doing dishes and all of a sudden, he comes back and Kevin is having a seizure.
40:05.917 --> 40:06.959
[SPEAKER_00]: So this happens.
40:07.019 --> 40:11.968
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just on a computer for him to have to do school at home.
40:12.750 --> 40:14.653
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just a computer because he wanted to computer.
40:15.034 --> 40:16.136
[SPEAKER_00]: And then the rest of that happened.
40:16.156 --> 40:16.577
[SPEAKER_00]: The user.
40:17.158 --> 40:19.782
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, he like, it's fixiates on food or whatever.
40:19.822 --> 40:20.844
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
40:20.864 --> 40:23.149
[SPEAKER_00]: No, he dies and it's sleep apparently.
40:23.529 --> 40:23.810
[SPEAKER_00]: I guess.
40:25.293 --> 40:27.216
[SPEAKER_00]: It was like super peaceful.
40:28.276 --> 40:29.317
[SPEAKER_00]: Wait, this isn't any dies?
40:30.078 --> 40:31.480
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I thought he got sick here.
40:31.500 --> 40:35.385
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, he got sick here, went to the hospital and then went back home and then died.
40:35.405 --> 40:36.726
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, okay.
40:36.746 --> 40:37.407
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, well there we go.
40:38.368 --> 40:39.490
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what happened.
40:39.510 --> 40:41.072
[SPEAKER_00]: So, yeah, Flora's in the book.
40:41.572 --> 40:44.516
[SPEAKER_00]: He goes to the hospital and Max just months to go, but he can't.
40:45.217 --> 40:52.786
[SPEAKER_00]: Eventually, Max, oh, he wants Max wants to go, but, like, Grimm says, no, it's too, like, not right now.
40:53.207 --> 40:55.870
[SPEAKER_00]: Eventually, Max says, sex, I'm going and he walks there.
40:56.778 --> 41:02.427
[SPEAKER_00]: He sits outside and he plays with a little helicopter thing that their friendship began with.
41:03.448 --> 41:12.443
[SPEAKER_00]: And he's hoping that him throwing it up will let Kevin see it from his room.
41:13.064 --> 41:20.355
[SPEAKER_00]: So eventually Lady Gwen comes out and brings Kevin up in the doctors.
41:21.382 --> 41:23.390
[SPEAKER_00]: don't want him to but Kevin's like that sucks.
41:23.832 --> 41:25.258
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to see my best friend.
41:25.860 --> 41:28.270
[SPEAKER_00]: And so Kevin, let's
41:29.009 --> 41:31.211
[SPEAKER_00]: Let him know that he's not coming home now.
41:31.351 --> 41:33.934
[SPEAKER_00]: Like now, he's not coming home like he is now.
41:34.254 --> 41:35.575
[SPEAKER_00]: He has to go get his surgery.
41:36.036 --> 41:40.480
[SPEAKER_00]: He's also gave him a blank book to say, right down all of the freak-the-mighty adventures.
41:41.101 --> 41:48.387
[SPEAKER_00]: And at dinner, Grimm and Graham are saying, how sad they are for Gwen and Max is like really confused.
41:48.407 --> 41:49.729
[SPEAKER_00]: He's like, why are you sad for Gwen?
41:49.929 --> 41:54.373
[SPEAKER_00]: It's Kevin getting the surgery and they kind of look at him confused, like, what are you talking about?
41:54.914 --> 41:57.396
[SPEAKER_00]: So, as a child reading this book,
41:58.000 --> 42:01.586
[SPEAKER_00]: did you really believe that Kevin was going to get up by on a body?
42:02.187 --> 42:02.428
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
42:03.550 --> 42:07.476
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh.
42:07.496 --> 42:07.597
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
42:07.617 --> 42:08.799
[SPEAKER_00]: As an adult reading it.
42:11.123 --> 42:18.355
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, as an adult watching the movie too, I was like, well, it's obvious what's going to happen.
42:20.461 --> 42:25.409
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I was blindsided as a child, I was like, what are you talking about?
42:25.429 --> 42:27.933
[SPEAKER_00]: I was max in the situation.
42:27.993 --> 42:36.968
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I was like, I don't even think if I read it for Sally, I would have been blindsided.
42:38.130 --> 42:44.460
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I don't think you would have been blindsided, but I feel like the emotional sadness is better in the book that it was in the movie.
42:47.731 --> 42:48.753
[SPEAKER_00]: whatever.
42:49.134 --> 42:52.540
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think so.
42:52.560 --> 42:54.825
[SPEAKER_00]: I think the kid played it right in the movie.
42:54.845 --> 42:55.887
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my gosh.
42:55.907 --> 43:02.179
[SPEAKER_00]: Well Max went to the hospital and he went to the ICU and he saw a bunch of nurses crying and he couldn't believe it.
43:02.952 --> 43:05.435
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, he's like, what is happening?
43:05.515 --> 43:06.556
[SPEAKER_00]: He can't be dead.
43:06.596 --> 43:07.997
[SPEAKER_00]: These are the biotics unit.
43:08.378 --> 43:10.840
[SPEAKER_00]: And he punches the window and goes in.
43:10.920 --> 43:13.863
[SPEAKER_00]: And he starts hammering on the steel door and cops come pin him down.
43:14.544 --> 43:16.366
[SPEAKER_00]: But then Kevin's doctor comes.
43:16.927 --> 43:18.248
[SPEAKER_00]: And she took responsibility for him.
43:18.668 --> 43:21.191
[SPEAKER_00]: And Max was pissed saying that he trusted you.
43:21.231 --> 43:22.833
[SPEAKER_00]: You're supposed to give him a new body.
43:23.433 --> 43:26.817
[SPEAKER_00]: Which is when the doctor said, what did he tell you?
43:26.797 --> 43:30.284
[SPEAKER_00]: and he explained, and the doctor said that was Kevin Hoping.
43:31.106 --> 43:40.485
[SPEAKER_00]: Kevin knew from a very young age that he was not going to live till he was very old, and his heart grew too big for his tiny body and that is ended up what?
43:40.938 --> 43:41.639
[SPEAKER_00]: killed him.
43:41.659 --> 43:51.353
[SPEAKER_00]: So in the movie, when Kevin is taken away in the ambulance, his mom tells Max this, so then as the ambulance is driving away, Max can't believe it.
43:51.433 --> 44:08.076
[SPEAKER_00]: So he runs to the building that is supposedly the bionic lab, but it's the laundry facility at the hospital and he breaks into there and he's running around looking around like what they're doing laundry here.
44:08.512 --> 44:13.003
[SPEAKER_00]: And then the cops and the doctors come and calm them down, not quite like this.
44:13.043 --> 44:15.169
[SPEAKER_00]: They just kind of, I feel like they give them a drug.
44:15.891 --> 44:16.652
[SPEAKER_00]: I give them.
44:17.334 --> 44:20.582
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, so imagine my confusion.
44:20.723 --> 44:24.833
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, why the hell is he storming into this laundry facility?
44:24.813 --> 44:39.835
[SPEAKER_00]: And like finally when he like he turns around after grabbing a bunch of the clothes that they're wondering I was like oh I bet this is where he told him the bionic body was getting made.
44:39.815 --> 44:43.038
[SPEAKER_00]: Max stayed in his room for a year and he missed the funeral.
44:43.078 --> 44:49.444
[SPEAKER_00]: He missed Gwen moving, she moved away, and eventually he came out because he was tired of rambling Graham pestering him.
44:50.105 --> 44:53.428
[SPEAKER_00]: And then he started writing his book, which was this book.
44:53.628 --> 44:54.829
[SPEAKER_00]: I just love when that happens.
44:55.870 --> 45:02.577
[SPEAKER_00]: And he ran into Loretta and found out that Gwen had moved for her partner and she's dating a new guy.
45:03.318 --> 45:06.801
[SPEAKER_00]: And he decided now that he's book.
45:08.401 --> 45:11.366
[SPEAKER_00]: He decided now that he wrote a book, he's going to start reading more.
45:12.348 --> 45:20.202
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, Loretta doesn't say that she's moved in his dating and you guys, she just kind of gives him the hope that he needs to continue on.
45:20.662 --> 45:22.906
[SPEAKER_00]: Yep.
45:22.926 --> 45:26.974
[SPEAKER_00]: And then the book ends with Freaks Dictionary.
45:27.194 --> 45:28.416
[SPEAKER_00]: It was so cute.
45:28.436 --> 45:30.420
[SPEAKER_00]: You didn't listen to that part, or read that part, did you?
45:31.461 --> 45:32.443
[SPEAKER_00]: Nope.
45:32.463 --> 45:33.565
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, good, I'm done with the book.
45:36.211 --> 45:36.972
[SPEAKER_00]: So cute.
45:36.992 --> 45:46.846
[SPEAKER_00]: I loved all his little, because it was like his word and then like a silly what it means as portraying to their friendship.
45:46.986 --> 45:49.229
[SPEAKER_00]: It was good.
45:49.249 --> 45:49.609
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
45:49.790 --> 45:50.811
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's it.
45:51.392 --> 45:51.732
[SPEAKER_00]: We did it.
45:52.093 --> 45:52.373
[SPEAKER_00]: Nice.
45:52.954 --> 45:53.375
[SPEAKER_00]: We did it.
45:54.236 --> 45:56.619
[SPEAKER_00]: I am a TV cast 37 people.
45:57.540 --> 45:58.802
[SPEAKER_00]: Why did I just move food?
45:59.183 --> 46:01.065
[SPEAKER_00]: It took me so long to break myself of that.
46:01.406 --> 46:01.726
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
46:01.826 --> 46:05.391
[SPEAKER_00]: So we got
46:06.502 --> 46:06.883
[SPEAKER_00]: Hey, good.
46:07.203 --> 46:08.986
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I like him.
46:09.007 --> 46:10.810
[SPEAKER_00]: We got curing him.
46:10.830 --> 46:11.892
[SPEAKER_00]: He was a lady Kevin.
46:13.154 --> 46:14.897
[SPEAKER_00]: I freaking love curing now.
46:14.937 --> 46:16.180
[SPEAKER_00]: He's such a great actor.
46:16.240 --> 46:17.762
[SPEAKER_00]: He's one of my favorites.
46:17.802 --> 46:18.043
[SPEAKER_00]: Good.
46:18.183 --> 46:22.852
[SPEAKER_00]: He looks and sounds just like McColley in the when he was little.
46:23.252 --> 46:23.914
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, he does.
46:24.274 --> 46:24.875
[SPEAKER_00]: I was shocked.
46:25.076 --> 46:27.099
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, I'm going to be like, are you sure?
46:27.119 --> 46:30.265
[SPEAKER_00]: I know it's not, but are we sure?
46:31.021 --> 46:34.476
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, what's funny is I had no idea that Kieran acted when he was younger.
46:34.496 --> 46:37.268
[SPEAKER_00]: I just thought he started acting when he was older.
46:37.349 --> 46:54.213
[SPEAKER_00]: No, he's, well, I guess, I guess I didn't know he acted like this like he's in, yeah, home alone, yeah, but I know that there, but yeah, I guess I figured that was a like, oh, your brother's on set for the day here, how I'm standing as your brother.
46:54.594 --> 46:56.016
[SPEAKER_00]: Right, oh yeah, okay.
46:56.717 --> 47:01.384
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, then we have Harry Dean Stanton played grandpa.
47:02.265 --> 47:02.746
[SPEAKER_00]: I love him.
47:03.607 --> 47:04.148
[SPEAKER_00]: He was good.
47:04.168 --> 47:06.411
[SPEAKER_00]: I liked him a lot.
47:06.695 --> 47:12.366
[SPEAKER_00]: Gina Rollins, Blade Graham, I thought it was funny because I haven't ever seen her in anything other than the notebook.
47:13.268 --> 47:15.132
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh yeah, that's where I recognize her from.
47:15.172 --> 47:16.715
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh-huh.
47:16.735 --> 47:17.697
[SPEAKER_00]: She's okay.
47:17.717 --> 47:19.160
[SPEAKER_00]: She's Ali.
47:19.180 --> 47:19.561
[SPEAKER_00]: And Ali.
47:20.823 --> 47:28.298
[SPEAKER_00]: Then we have Joe Purino, Blade Blade, which I think is Danny.
47:29.459 --> 47:30.120

[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah, he was fine to think so.
47:32.162 --> 47:33.443
[SPEAKER_00]: I forgot that they changed his name.
47:34.464 --> 47:34.805
[SPEAKER_00]: My bad.
47:35.906 --> 47:39.750

[SPEAKER_00]: How I know her.
47:47.217 --> 47:47.598
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
47:47.638 --> 47:48.679

47:48.719 --> 47:49.280
[SPEAKER_00]: I know that much.
47:50.060 --> 47:54.605
[SPEAKER_00]: And she seemed very familiar to me, but I did not know who she was.
47:54.885 --> 47:58.369
[SPEAKER_00]: She did good.
47:59.395 --> 48:00.736

[SPEAKER_00]: When I saw that, me little fizzing it, I was like, yes, give me my rocky horror people.
48:12.488 --> 48:12.788
[SPEAKER_00]: Gosh.
48:13.369 --> 48:19.075
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, in that, oh, and then we'll do James, Gan, and Doc, what?
48:20.096 --> 48:22.338
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, my God, you were about to skip him.
48:22.498 --> 48:25.521
[SPEAKER_00]: And then you can't even say his name?
48:25.501 --> 48:34.846
[SPEAKER_00]: It's James Gandalfini, like the most good thing in this movie, and the doll, that fun Gandalfini.
48:34.866 --> 48:36.310
[SPEAKER_00]: I can't eat.
48:36.330 --> 48:37.533
[SPEAKER_00]: I can't eat.
48:37.553 --> 48:39.338
[SPEAKER_00]: So you can love him in this.
48:39.358 --> 48:40.581
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't even know.
48:40.601 --> 48:41.704
[SPEAKER_00]: He's so good.
48:42.612 --> 48:45.936
[SPEAKER_00]: He's the guy from the soprano.
48:45.956 --> 48:46.837
[SPEAKER_00]: But yes, he is right there.
48:47.218 --> 48:48.019
[SPEAKER_00]: Tony's the soprano.
48:48.039 --> 48:50.462
[SPEAKER_00]: He's like the main one in me.
48:50.522 --> 48:51.042
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
48:52.384 --> 48:55.047
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's like you're trying to skip this guy.
48:55.067 --> 48:58.551
[SPEAKER_00]: Like the super thing like I guess we should do this guy.
48:58.712 --> 49:03.237
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I was scrolling his name is like at the freaking bottom of the list.
49:04.128 --> 49:10.038
[SPEAKER_00]: No, so one of my favorite movies, I say favorite, but I think I've only watched it a few times, but it's a really, really good movie.
49:10.058 --> 49:23.822
[SPEAKER_00]: It's the yellow hanker chiff, and it's Kristen Stewart, Eddie Redmayne, and James Gandalfini, and it's basically like, there are three random people who end up on a road trip together, and it's actually like, this really sweet movie.
49:24.343 --> 49:25.084
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a good movie.
49:25.725 --> 49:26.847

[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, when did they not?
49:52.744 --> 49:57.270
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, they don't know each other.
49:58.364 --> 50:00.286
