00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:03.600
Hi, guys, I'd it's you, Josen, David Jones, Hey,

2
00:00:03.720 --> 00:00:06.679
this is Kevin Salzman. Hey.
Yeah, this many suit and John Re

3
00:00:06.799 --> 00:00:11.109
Stavis and doing listening to script,
to scream, script too, screen,

4
00:00:11.230 --> 00:00:20.829
script, screen, scripts, screen
is green, how low and welcome to

5
00:00:20.910 --> 00:00:26.059
a brand new episode of script to
screen. We are here. We are

6
00:00:26.219 --> 00:00:28.980
back with a brand new episode this
week. It's going to be a fun

7
00:00:28.980 --> 00:00:32.820
one. It's going to be different, it's gonna be entertaining, and not

8
00:00:32.979 --> 00:00:36.409
that we haven't been entertaining in the
past, but you know, we're trying

9
00:00:36.450 --> 00:00:40.090
to keep you guys on your toes
because, if you haven't noticed, hot

10
00:00:40.250 --> 00:00:45.450
and I are deep, deep,
deep in the works, in the working,

11
00:00:45.890 --> 00:00:50.439
in the under the construction, in
the rebuilding, in the real renovating

12
00:00:50.880 --> 00:00:54.280
of script to screen. We are
entering fall season and on the way to

13
00:00:54.359 --> 00:00:56.719
entering winter. So this is when
a lot of things, you know,

14
00:00:56.920 --> 00:01:00.640
we're doing a lot of that transformation. That met our morphosis with scriptwo screen

15
00:01:02.399 --> 00:01:06.430
because, again, to keep the
show interesting, to keep the show popular,

16
00:01:06.549 --> 00:01:10.230
to keep you, are screeners,
entertained, we have to adapt and

17
00:01:11.590 --> 00:01:14.870
times are changing, times are difficult. In Two thousand and twenty. Normally

18
00:01:14.909 --> 00:01:18.939
on the show we would be reviewing
films on a weekly basis, we would

19
00:01:18.980 --> 00:01:22.659
be talking about the latest releases,
we would be in the movie theater,

20
00:01:22.819 --> 00:01:25.459
but two thousand and twenty has made
that very difficult for us. So,

21
00:01:25.980 --> 00:01:27.620
in order to keep the show interesting, in order to keep the show,

22
00:01:29.900 --> 00:01:32.780
you know, popular with you guys, and in order to keep you guys

23
00:01:32.819 --> 00:01:37.329
entertained and and enjoying the conversation that
we are having on script to screen,

24
00:01:37.370 --> 00:01:42.049
we've had to make some adaptable changes. And I know I keep saying we,

25
00:01:42.370 --> 00:01:46.689
so I might as well bring him
on join me and welcoming the solo

26
00:01:46.810 --> 00:01:51.120
to my Chewbacca, the one and
only hide. So low Headlo, my

27
00:01:51.280 --> 00:01:56.159
friend, how are you? I
I'm good, I'm good. I'm telling

28
00:01:56.239 --> 00:02:00.040
you this spring cleaning stuff with scripture
screen is it's Tyran, it's exhausting,

29
00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:04.150
it's but it's fun. It it
is fun. It's fun. Yeah,

30
00:02:04.549 --> 00:02:07.789
look at two thousand and twenty has
been exhausting. Let's be realistic about that.

31
00:02:08.789 --> 00:02:14.990
But we're not going to delve into
depression and sadness. No, we

32
00:02:15.189 --> 00:02:21.580
want people to take a break,
people to change their moods and listen to

33
00:02:21.659 --> 00:02:24.900
US talk about our love for movies, our love for series our love for

34
00:02:25.699 --> 00:02:32.569
the arts, exactly exactly, because
nothing needs celebration in these in these times,

35
00:02:32.770 --> 00:02:38.849
nothing needs as much celebration as the
arts do. And and this is

36
00:02:38.930 --> 00:02:40.849
why we keep doing what we're doing, and this is why we're here every

37
00:02:40.930 --> 00:02:46.400
single week, regardless of what is
happening around us. We're just going to

38
00:02:46.520 --> 00:02:51.800
keep delivering scripture screen to you,
our screeners, the way they're used to.

39
00:02:52.479 --> 00:02:53.960
Well, not just well, the
way they're used to makes it sound

40
00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:57.560
predictable. We want to be predictable. We want to shake things up.

41
00:02:57.599 --> 00:03:05.150
Yeah, we want to do things
a bit differently. Exactly exactly. And

42
00:03:05.189 --> 00:03:07.909
if two thousand and twenty is cut
has taught us anything, it's that,

43
00:03:08.590 --> 00:03:13.819
you know, if life isn't predictable, why should this show be predictable?

44
00:03:15.340 --> 00:03:19.979
So in today's episode, that was
a terrible transition. That was not there.

45
00:03:20.099 --> 00:03:22.939
Yeah, sure, not very good. No, that was not very

46
00:03:22.979 --> 00:03:25.379
good. That's okay. Well,
we'll keep going. Um, in today's

47
00:03:25.419 --> 00:03:30.969
episode we're gonna WE'RE gonna play a
little game sort of. We're gonna be

48
00:03:31.650 --> 00:03:35.569
doing God, I don't even know
how to explain it, but the way

49
00:03:35.689 --> 00:03:38.210
this episode is going to works as
follows. I'm going to talk about a

50
00:03:38.409 --> 00:03:44.800
favorite director, actor or screenwriter or
whatever in the industry of mine, and

51
00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:52.120
from that hot is going to talk
about one of the films or television shows

52
00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:58.110
or maybe even soundtracks that these people
worked on and in return, going to

53
00:03:58.189 --> 00:04:02.789
have to link that to another talent, in which turn I will have to

54
00:04:02.909 --> 00:04:06.389
pick a film relating to that talent, and so on and so forth.

55
00:04:06.830 --> 00:04:12.020
Did I explain that clearly, or
is everybody as confused as they were when

56
00:04:12.060 --> 00:04:17.300
they first saw interstellar or inception?
I thought I understood before this conversation,

57
00:04:17.660 --> 00:04:24.810
but now it would seem that I
did not understand. But let's try.

58
00:04:24.889 --> 00:04:30.089
Let's go with it and see.
So let's let's let's let's rewind a little.

59
00:04:30.689 --> 00:04:32.250
No, I think I get I
get the gist. I get that

60
00:04:32.329 --> 00:04:34.689
idea. Okay, okay, I
was worried there for a second. I

61
00:04:34.769 --> 00:04:39.319
was like, Dang, did I
did I get promoted to Nolan level of

62
00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:46.240
Mindy twisty wibbly wobbly time stuff,
but I would understood. We're okay,

63
00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:49.720
all right, so let me go
ahead and start this off. I'M gonna

64
00:04:49.759 --> 00:04:59.310
I'M gonna start this off rather simple
and I'm gonna talk about Jj Abrams divertary.

65
00:04:59.389 --> 00:05:03.350
Funny. What is that? We're
doing this for the the Internet right

66
00:05:03.430 --> 00:05:09.819
work. We're recording online. Yes, in front of me on the TV

67
00:05:09.939 --> 00:05:18.220
screen on mute, I have got
the rise of skywalker in the backgrounds directly

68
00:05:18.259 --> 00:05:24.810
jade, is there a camera in
my room? Are you seeing what I'm

69
00:05:24.810 --> 00:05:27.810
seeing or you I am you know
some purpose? Me Tell you something.

70
00:05:28.009 --> 00:05:31.209
The reason why I'm picking Jj Abrams
is because I just finished another re watch

71
00:05:31.329 --> 00:05:38.839
of the rise of skywalker last night. Yes, and let me tell you,

72
00:05:39.000 --> 00:05:44.920
okay, well, as problematic as
the sequel trilogy is, I do

73
00:05:45.120 --> 00:05:46.920
love it. It's weird, I
do love it. It has so many

74
00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:50.589
problems in connection to the rest of
the saga, but I do love the

75
00:05:50.629 --> 00:05:54.670
sequel trilogy. Anyway, we're not
talking about Star Wars. We're talking about

76
00:05:54.670 --> 00:05:58.110
JJ Abrams, and I have to
say the reason why I like a JJ

77
00:05:58.189 --> 00:06:01.990
Abrams his work, and I think
I like him as a creative is because

78
00:06:02.269 --> 00:06:10.579
he's sort of developed this new status
of resuscitator. Like he brings things back

79
00:06:10.620 --> 00:06:14.339
to life. He's sort of a
shaman in one way. I don't know

80
00:06:14.420 --> 00:06:18.129
what he does, but he breathes
life into dead franchises. He did it

81
00:06:18.209 --> 00:06:23.290
with mission impossible, he did it
with Star Trek and then did it with

82
00:06:23.410 --> 00:06:26.370
star wars and I think now he's
going to be doing it in the DC

83
00:06:26.769 --> 00:06:31.250
universe because he's been brought on by
Warner Brothers to kind of reboot in a

84
00:06:31.329 --> 00:06:39.079
way the DC franchise or some part
of the DC universe or whatever. And

85
00:06:39.240 --> 00:06:43.360
I do like his work. I
do like how key functions. I like

86
00:06:43.519 --> 00:06:46.430
the way that he tells stories.
He has a brilliant Ted talk all about

87
00:06:48.310 --> 00:06:50.990
the box, which is what he
does in his stories, is that in

88
00:06:51.110 --> 00:06:55.509
all of the stories there's something called
the box and it's and then in you

89
00:06:55.589 --> 00:06:59.509
know, when when a character discover
something or opens the box, there's another

90
00:06:59.629 --> 00:07:03.660
box inside it and it's always like
this layer upon layer upon layer upon layer

91
00:07:03.740 --> 00:07:08.819
upon layer, and I like that
form of storytelling because it keeps you engaged,

92
00:07:08.899 --> 00:07:12.300
it keeps the mystery going. I
do know that sometimes it can get

93
00:07:12.300 --> 00:07:19.610
kind of longwinded lost, but in
many cases I think it works and I

94
00:07:19.649 --> 00:07:23.930
think it worked in Star Wars,
I think it worked in his TV show

95
00:07:23.970 --> 00:07:29.529
alias and and it does work in
the mission impostable that he directed, which

96
00:07:29.610 --> 00:07:36.399
was mission impossible three. It ain't
had that kind of storytelling. Yeah,

97
00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:45.110
absolutely, he's he's someone I really
like. Is One of those nude directors.

98
00:07:45.629 --> 00:07:51.149
Happen? LASAHA, La Sasha?
Okay, Kadam was almost like choking.

99
00:07:51.189 --> 00:07:55.069
He was holding his cough. Are
you good? Okay, he's good.

100
00:07:55.110 --> 00:07:57.990
All right, so go with what
you were saying about Jed. Sorry.

101
00:07:58.660 --> 00:08:01.860
Yeah, look, listen, I
really like Jj. I think he's

102
00:08:01.899 --> 00:08:05.860
one of those, if you want, newer directors, even though he's been

103
00:08:05.899 --> 00:08:09.420
here for a while, but he
has done a lot of work. He

104
00:08:09.540 --> 00:08:16.850
has rejuvenated a lot of franchises,
as you said, and he's super creative

105
00:08:16.930 --> 00:08:20.290
and I for some reason I associate
him a lot and I see him a

106
00:08:20.290 --> 00:08:26.649
lot as a Spielberg, Spielberg ask
kind of director. In some way.

107
00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:33.080
He has that creativity. He's a
great storyteller. He's someone I really really

108
00:08:33.639 --> 00:08:37.480
appreciate and love. I mean,
nothing said K Abrams relating to Spielberg.

109
00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:43.149
Then one of my favorite films of
Jj Abrams, which is Super Eight.

110
00:08:43.830 --> 00:08:46.549
I mean that had spielberg written all
over it. I was I was going

111
00:08:46.590 --> 00:08:50.629
to bring that up actually, because
Super Eight, unlike most of his movies,

112
00:08:50.710 --> 00:08:56.419
is not him working with an existing
franchise. Right and and he's done

113
00:08:56.460 --> 00:09:03.580
a it's such such a beautiful film
with such nice performances and you know it's

114
00:09:05.019 --> 00:09:09.929
it's reminiscing of early Spielberg where he
worked with the younger children like an et

115
00:09:11.409 --> 00:09:16.809
and and so on, and it's
just such a beautifully made movie. And

116
00:09:16.970 --> 00:09:20.809
I think creas these are very,
very talented person and has put his hand

117
00:09:22.889 --> 00:09:26.759
in the TV TV R and I
think he's one of the people that fortified

118
00:09:26.879 --> 00:09:33.120
TV series with lost, with alias, he put the TV on the map

119
00:09:33.279 --> 00:09:39.789
again. He made shows on TV
watchable, he made them cinematic what what

120
00:09:39.950 --> 00:09:43.070
they are today. You know,
with lost, I think the first episode

121
00:09:43.230 --> 00:09:50.350
was, back in the day,
had the biggest budget for an episode of

122
00:09:50.470 --> 00:09:54.860
US TV series. So he has
done, you know, things right and

123
00:09:54.980 --> 00:10:00.980
properly. Look the lost pilot.
That, to our pilot, is it

124
00:10:01.100 --> 00:10:03.659
is two hours, like you can't
watch just the first hour on his own.

125
00:10:03.940 --> 00:10:09.730
That the pilot is two hours.
That, to our opening for lost

126
00:10:09.330 --> 00:10:16.769
is by far one one of the
best first episodes of a TV series I

127
00:10:16.970 --> 00:10:24.279
have ever, ever, ever seen. It is so beautifully the ministerfully executed.

128
00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:31.480
I mean it's genius, it's beautifully
done. I totally agree with you.

129
00:10:31.879 --> 00:10:35.110
So now I have to talk about
someone he's collaborated with, yeah,

130
00:10:35.149 --> 00:10:39.149
or someone in but yeah, exactly. Yeah, and I'm going to go

131
00:10:39.389 --> 00:10:43.830
for something a bit different, but
I'm going to talk with one of the

132
00:10:43.950 --> 00:10:50.259
composers he's worked with a lot,
which is Michael Gecchin no, I don't

133
00:10:50.299 --> 00:10:54.179
know if I said it. It's
Chee. You know, it's a Giaquino,

134
00:10:54.500 --> 00:10:58.580
I think Jacquino, Jacquino Gucchino,
you know. Okay, see.

135
00:10:58.580 --> 00:11:03.299
Yeah, so I think look,
for both of us, we have a

136
00:11:03.340 --> 00:11:07.529
massive appreciation of John Williams. Yes, the master Jedi, if you want,

137
00:11:09.090 --> 00:11:18.169
but his apprentice is doing things and
has been writing scores for so many

138
00:11:18.250 --> 00:11:24.840
movies with JJ and other people.
I mean he has his this particular sound

139
00:11:26.159 --> 00:11:30.720
which I love. He brings a
lot of Gravitas when he needs to bring

140
00:11:30.759 --> 00:11:33.149
it. He brings a lot of
emotion when he needs to bring it.

141
00:11:33.309 --> 00:11:37.669
Musically speaking, he's one of the
best composers in the business, in my

142
00:11:37.750 --> 00:11:43.950
opinion. Even when he revisited some
existing, if you want, themes,

143
00:11:45.110 --> 00:11:50.779
like in the Star Trek reboot,
he gave that, I don't know,

144
00:11:52.379 --> 00:11:56.620
a little Genese Qua, as they
say in French. Yeah, yeah,

145
00:11:56.820 --> 00:12:03.570
but to but yeah, he is
definitely someone who has put his mark on

146
00:12:03.690 --> 00:12:13.049
on the composing because we never,
we rarely talked about could our score episodes,

147
00:12:13.450 --> 00:12:18.159
which we never really put online.
Yeah, I mean we never necessarily

148
00:12:18.200 --> 00:12:22.120
put them online because we are always
afraid because of a copyright, you know,

149
00:12:22.399 --> 00:12:28.200
copyrights that we have talked about appreciation
for for certain composers, and I

150
00:12:28.320 --> 00:12:31.110
think this is the first time that
people will hear US talk a bit about

151
00:12:31.429 --> 00:12:35.470
composers, because they are under appreciated. Look, to make a movie you

152
00:12:35.590 --> 00:12:39.149
need an army, you need a
lot of people and we always talk about

153
00:12:39.190 --> 00:12:45.379
takes, legers and did directors and
whatnot, but we forget that there are

154
00:12:45.460 --> 00:12:50.980
composers, there technicians, there are
cinematographers, so many people doing that job,

155
00:12:52.179 --> 00:12:56.100
and composers. You know, try
to watch a movie without music.

156
00:12:58.570 --> 00:13:03.250
It kills the whole experience. I
mean even before movies had sound in them,

157
00:13:03.289 --> 00:13:09.370
they had music in the background.
Music has been such an integral part

158
00:13:09.409 --> 00:13:18.440
of movie making and Michael Giacchino has
done such a fantastic job composing and,

159
00:13:18.600 --> 00:13:24.200
if you want, writing scores for
so, so many movies with Jj Abrahams

160
00:13:24.279 --> 00:13:26.990
and even in the Marvel Universe and
and so on. Here. The list,

161
00:13:28.629 --> 00:13:35.509
the list is massive people. So
hats off to Mr get get get

162
00:13:35.549 --> 00:13:39.669
chain. I, like said,
he I don't know why, man,

163
00:13:39.830 --> 00:13:45.220
fantastic um before before I move,
I think. I think you have to

164
00:13:45.700 --> 00:13:48.700
do you have to get someone new
now. Yeah, okay, so before

165
00:13:48.700 --> 00:13:52.500
you do that, let me let
me just say one quick thing, because,

166
00:13:52.500 --> 00:13:54.850
ix, I do like what you
said. I do like that.

167
00:13:56.009 --> 00:14:00.210
You see that you mentioned our script
to screen score episodes, which were,

168
00:14:00.409 --> 00:14:03.690
at the time, they were exclusive
at the radio station where script to screen

169
00:14:03.769 --> 00:14:07.970
used to air live. Before you
know, we release that same episode as

170
00:14:07.970 --> 00:14:13.399
a podcast. I do want to
say one thing. I do want to

171
00:14:13.399 --> 00:14:16.399
say that I would like to try
to find a way for us to bring

172
00:14:16.960 --> 00:14:24.240
those episodes onto the podcast, even
if it means not necessarily playing the entire

173
00:14:24.279 --> 00:14:28.669
track, even if it means playing
maybe thirty seconds of that track or even

174
00:14:28.710 --> 00:14:35.470
a minute. But I do I
do miss you and I talking about the

175
00:14:35.629 --> 00:14:43.580
music of our favorite TV shows or
movies or, like you said, giving

176
00:14:43.100 --> 00:14:50.659
the composers the recognition that they deserve. And this is a show called from

177
00:14:50.899 --> 00:14:54.490
you know it, this is a
show called script to screen, and music

178
00:14:54.649 --> 00:14:58.490
is in between that. Music is
part of that. So I do want

179
00:14:58.490 --> 00:15:03.009
to see if there is a way
we can maybe as a start, and

180
00:15:03.090 --> 00:15:07.639
we'll see how those episodes do on
the feed, on the podcast feed for

181
00:15:07.679 --> 00:15:11.240
all you screeners. Maybe I'll start
with the older episodes, but maybe like

182
00:15:11.440 --> 00:15:16.960
cut out the musicals, the longer
musical segments, and just kind of give

183
00:15:16.000 --> 00:15:20.429
you guys at least an idea as
to what those episodes were like and if

184
00:15:20.509 --> 00:15:24.629
we see that they're popular and that
you guys are listening to them, then

185
00:15:24.669 --> 00:15:30.590
we'll start doing newer episodes. What
do you think? God, I think

186
00:15:30.629 --> 00:15:33.909
that would be really nice because,
you know, we want to shed light

187
00:15:35.549 --> 00:15:43.019
on you know, composers and screenwriters
and so many, so many artists and

188
00:15:43.740 --> 00:15:48.700
exactly, exactly because, as you
said, it takes a village to it

189
00:15:48.779 --> 00:15:50.970
does I agree. Now there are
some there are some episodes that I know

190
00:15:52.009 --> 00:15:54.730
ahead of time are not going to
work in that format, but there are

191
00:15:54.809 --> 00:16:00.690
some that I think will. Will
will be great, let's say, test

192
00:16:00.090 --> 00:16:04.799
episodes, like test sample episodes for
our screeners and for us to see if

193
00:16:04.840 --> 00:16:10.000
they enjoy them or not. Yeah, all right, you go ahead now

194
00:16:10.039 --> 00:16:12.759
with your second and your second Pi. So it has to be someone that's

195
00:16:12.799 --> 00:16:15.320
worked with jetch. You know,
right, yeah, it has. There

196
00:16:15.360 --> 00:16:18.029
has to be a link in between
them yet, of course. So I'm

197
00:16:18.070 --> 00:16:22.870
going to talk about a director I
like. I know we did a director,

198
00:16:23.029 --> 00:16:27.029
but I just feel like talking about
him because he's so hot right now.

199
00:16:27.149 --> 00:16:30.830
He's so in he's done so much
in the past. I know exactly.

200
00:16:30.990 --> 00:16:33.700
So you're going to talk about I
think. Let's see, who do

201
00:16:33.740 --> 00:16:37.500
you think I'm going to talk about? I think you're going to talk about

202
00:16:37.500 --> 00:16:41.379
Matt Reeves. No, no,
Oh, okay, okay, no,

203
00:16:41.580 --> 00:16:45.259
I'm going to talk about someone who's, I think, even fresher then Matt

204
00:16:45.340 --> 00:16:49.929
Reeves. I'm going to talk about
Taika Waititi because, okay, yeak,

205
00:16:51.009 --> 00:16:57.570
you know composed the score for Jojo
rabbits. Taika Witt for me, is

206
00:16:57.730 --> 00:17:03.440
just such a fantastic director I have
to talk about him a bit. or

207
00:17:03.559 --> 00:17:07.279
You I just throw it to you
and you you go no, no,

208
00:17:07.519 --> 00:17:10.000
of course you have to talk about
him a bit. All right, just

209
00:17:10.119 --> 00:17:14.200
to make sure we're playing by the
right rules. Yeah, look, Taikea

210
00:17:14.319 --> 00:17:18.589
is someone who I think is a
breath of fresh air in what he does.

211
00:17:18.470 --> 00:17:23.190
He has been thinking outside the box
since he started making movies. He

212
00:17:26.230 --> 00:17:32.660
I think he rejuvenated the thor franchise, which became thor to me, was

213
00:17:32.740 --> 00:17:37.660
not the most interesting avenger. He's
not someone I necessarily liked that much.

214
00:17:37.779 --> 00:17:41.819
It was he was okay, it
was funny, but when Ragnarok came he

215
00:17:41.940 --> 00:17:47.049
gave him a lot of heart.
He gave the story a big, big

216
00:17:47.130 --> 00:17:51.569
push, and I mean he does
they he does things with it, with

217
00:17:51.769 --> 00:17:56.890
into the shadows, what we do
in the shadows. Sorry, a Jojo

218
00:17:56.930 --> 00:18:00.720
Rabbit. For me it was just
such an amazing and pleasant film to watch

219
00:18:00.519 --> 00:18:03.440
with a lot of heart, which
was hard to watch at times because people

220
00:18:03.559 --> 00:18:10.400
think it's just funny. But there
are some very emotional parts and he's such

221
00:18:10.759 --> 00:18:15.230
such a creative person and he's involved
in so many things. He acts in

222
00:18:15.390 --> 00:18:19.430
his movies, he tries to produce, he has his passionate about his home

223
00:18:19.470 --> 00:18:22.869
country in New Zealand and tries to
involve it as much as he can.

224
00:18:25.710 --> 00:18:32.619
He is doing things a bit differently
from other directors. He's so overthetop and

225
00:18:32.819 --> 00:18:37.180
he's someone I would love, I
would love to see delve into the Star

226
00:18:37.259 --> 00:18:41.019
Wars universe. On a personal note, I would love to see what Taike

227
00:18:41.059 --> 00:18:45.609
I can do, maybe with a
lighter kind of maybe with a TV show

228
00:18:45.049 --> 00:18:48.650
and he was. He was on
the Mendalorian he had a part. Yeah,

229
00:18:48.210 --> 00:18:52.970
he had. I believe he's also
involved in season two, if I'm

230
00:18:52.970 --> 00:18:57.400
not mistaken. Yeah, this is
how diverse this this guy is. He's

231
00:18:57.880 --> 00:19:03.200
he's a team player and he plays
with the team and I love yeah,

232
00:19:03.279 --> 00:19:07.279
let me just say one thing about
Taycho itd before I go with my link

233
00:19:07.359 --> 00:19:11.509
to take a if you haven't seen
what we do in the shadows, the

234
00:19:11.630 --> 00:19:18.829
TV show, you haven't seen anything, because, yeah, like that shows

235
00:19:18.910 --> 00:19:25.099
hilarious. It is absolutely out of
this world hilarious. It is like a

236
00:19:25.220 --> 00:19:30.740
mix of a mockumentary with vampires and
werewolves, and they are probably the worst

237
00:19:30.819 --> 00:19:37.259
kind of empire and Werewolf. It's
just it's so funny. It's so dark

238
00:19:37.299 --> 00:19:40.410
humor. If you don't like dark
humor, you're probably not gonna like it,

239
00:19:40.569 --> 00:19:45.049
but it's absolute it's hilarious. I
saw a bunch of episodes. It

240
00:19:45.210 --> 00:19:48.329
is I think I finished season one. I have yet to finish season two,

241
00:19:48.970 --> 00:19:52.529
but it's it's genius. It's absolute
genius and he's now going to be

242
00:19:52.650 --> 00:19:55.480
working on any new by the way, he's going to be working on a

243
00:19:55.599 --> 00:20:00.359
new show for Hbo Max and it's
going to deal with pirates and I cannot

244
00:20:00.400 --> 00:20:06.720
wait to see what he does with
this. Yeah, yeah, he's he

245
00:20:07.589 --> 00:20:10.910
is something else, in my opinion
at this point. He's doing things very

246
00:20:10.950 --> 00:20:18.230
differently. He's fresh, he's original
and even when he takes an existing franchise,

247
00:20:18.349 --> 00:20:22.660
he makes it his own. Yep, exactly, all right. So

248
00:20:22.819 --> 00:20:30.299
my link to Tai Kayitt is going
to be another talent who. It's sneaky

249
00:20:30.339 --> 00:20:33.460
because I had to do my research
because I wasn't sure if they've collaborated before.

250
00:20:33.019 --> 00:20:40.890
However, they're collaborating now, so
it's bending the rules, but it

251
00:20:41.089 --> 00:20:45.690
works. So I'm I'm going to
be talking about a brilliant actor, a

252
00:20:47.210 --> 00:20:56.240
brilliant director and a man who who
has really changed the face of of motion

253
00:20:56.559 --> 00:21:03.240
capture performances, and that man is
none other than and the circus. M

254
00:21:03.390 --> 00:21:07.029
and Andy Circus in Taich it TT
are working on a project right now.

255
00:21:07.230 --> 00:21:11.549
It's like a biopic, which is, I think, very interesting for Taych

256
00:21:11.750 --> 00:21:17.789
Ittt to be doing, but again, just goes a goes to show the

257
00:21:17.869 --> 00:21:26.140
diversity and the circus not has played
two characters that I absolutely adore. One

258
00:21:26.180 --> 00:21:30.779
of them is in a dystopian world
and the other is in a fantasy world.

259
00:21:33.650 --> 00:21:37.250
The dystopian world would be none other
than Caesar from the planet of the

260
00:21:37.329 --> 00:21:41.809
Apes. Absolutely, Yes, yeah, I think. I think that trilogy

261
00:21:41.930 --> 00:21:48.279
is by far one of the strongest
trilogies of all time. It's, for

262
00:21:48.440 --> 00:21:52.160
me, on my list of trilogies
that I love. It's a very close

263
00:21:52.279 --> 00:21:57.000
second place to the Lord of the
Rings, which is the other trilogy that

264
00:21:57.680 --> 00:22:03.750
Andy Circus is a part of,
where he plays golumn and I think that

265
00:22:03.910 --> 00:22:07.670
was essentially the role that put him
on the map. He's done a lot

266
00:22:07.789 --> 00:22:12.150
for motion capture technology. I think
the level of the push that he did

267
00:22:12.309 --> 00:22:18.140
with, you know, for the
planet of the apes is amazing. I

268
00:22:18.259 --> 00:22:22.700
think those films Look Gorgeous. I
think the motion capture in them looks gorgeous.

269
00:22:23.019 --> 00:22:26.500
The performs are amazing and that's all
thanks to indy cirkus. I think

270
00:22:26.539 --> 00:22:32.329
he has an academy now where he
teaches like motion capture performances and all that

271
00:22:32.410 --> 00:22:36.809
stuff is. It's it's crazy how
deep into that world and the circus went.

272
00:22:37.170 --> 00:22:41.049
I think he's an amazing actor.
I think he's a brilliant creative.

273
00:22:41.769 --> 00:22:48.400
I think he's very underappreciated, although
he did get awarded earlier this year,

274
00:22:48.519 --> 00:22:52.720
I think at the bath does.
He got like a very nice recognition and

275
00:22:53.079 --> 00:22:56.480
he he gave a speech and it
was it was kind of amazing. I

276
00:22:56.519 --> 00:23:02.829
think Ian mckellen gave him the award, which I find awesome, because Gandalf,

277
00:23:03.470 --> 00:23:06.589
but that is that is who I, you know, like, who

278
00:23:06.630 --> 00:23:10.950
I want to sort of celebrate is
is the genius that is Andy Circus.

279
00:23:12.740 --> 00:23:18.099
I just want to add to that
that for me, I love him as

280
00:23:18.220 --> 00:23:23.700
Golim, I love him as Captain
Haddock in Tintin. But true, I

281
00:23:25.099 --> 00:23:33.329
have to say that his performance and
planet of the apes is just sublime.

282
00:23:33.609 --> 00:23:38.529
It is perfect. I agree and
I think that you know, we've talked

283
00:23:38.569 --> 00:23:42.200
about this before and I know we'll
keep on talking about this, but how

284
00:23:42.880 --> 00:23:48.799
award season works, how the Academy
Awards work and what's not. I know

285
00:23:48.920 --> 00:23:53.799
exactly where you're going with this and
I love it. His performance and the

286
00:23:53.880 --> 00:23:56.910
trilogy, the pick, whichever one
you want, of the planet of the

287
00:23:56.950 --> 00:24:02.549
ape, he deserved much, much
more recognition. For me, absolutely,

288
00:24:02.750 --> 00:24:07.630
he did deserve an academy award nomination, I think because the physicality of what

289
00:24:07.789 --> 00:24:14.460
he does and the way he tries
to to bring these characters which you don't

290
00:24:14.500 --> 00:24:18.579
really see it for a he's he's
wearing ping pong balls left and right.

291
00:24:18.740 --> 00:24:26.289
I mean him walking and becoming an
ape, expressing himself as an ape,

292
00:24:27.410 --> 00:24:32.210
bringing so, so much to this
character. I think he deserved much,

293
00:24:32.250 --> 00:24:37.009
much, much more recognition when it
came to awards season, and I do

294
00:24:37.210 --> 00:24:41.160
think that maybe later along the way
we should do an episode on, you

295
00:24:41.279 --> 00:24:47.319
know, how we think the Academy
Award should evolve. Who should they include?

296
00:24:47.400 --> 00:24:49.559
Hundred percent, a hundred percent of
what awards because, you know,

297
00:24:49.799 --> 00:24:53.150
stuntmen, I think, are people
who are overlooked, yes, and yes,

298
00:24:53.390 --> 00:24:56.430
yes, voice actors are people who
are overlooked. It so on.

299
00:24:56.589 --> 00:25:00.390
So you have a that's a different
episode. But for me, yeah,

300
00:25:00.430 --> 00:25:03.670
I was just like this part of
me really wanted to go wild right now

301
00:25:03.710 --> 00:25:07.380
and be like, you want to
talk about representation in the Oscars? That's

302
00:25:07.460 --> 00:25:12.380
how that's what needs to be represented, is actual's like Andy Circus, who

303
00:25:12.420 --> 00:25:19.140
are literally wearing latex suits almost,
and they're moving and contorting and changing their

304
00:25:19.220 --> 00:25:23.609
voice. That is acting. That
is acting. You know, you want

305
00:25:23.609 --> 00:25:27.569
to talk about underrepresentation. How about
let exactly like you said, those stunt

306
00:25:27.609 --> 00:25:33.690
people that risk their lies protecting the
faces of the bourgeois actors in Hollywood so

307
00:25:33.809 --> 00:25:37.960
that they don't, like, you
know, break a nail? How about

308
00:25:37.960 --> 00:25:41.519
those beautiful actors that give us some
of the greatest voice acting in the animated

309
00:25:41.599 --> 00:25:48.720
films? All these people aren't getting
the recognition they deserve and I'm thankful that

310
00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:52.750
at least our show does that for
them, as little as this show is.

311
00:25:55.589 --> 00:26:02.869
So yeah, Yep. So is
it my pick again? Yeah,

312
00:26:02.910 --> 00:26:07.099
it's a pick to actually give someone
he's collaborated with and for me to talk

313
00:26:07.140 --> 00:26:11.619
about. Okay, let's see here. Okay, okay, okay, okay,

314
00:26:11.619 --> 00:26:15.579
okay, Oh, I mean this
is kind of an easy one,

315
00:26:15.819 --> 00:26:23.089
but I will do it. I
am going to say, you know what,

316
00:26:23.289 --> 00:26:29.529
okay, I'll do I'll do this. It is another director or you

317
00:26:29.609 --> 00:26:30.609
know what? No, I'll pick
a movie. I'll pick the movie that

318
00:26:30.730 --> 00:26:34.359
the director that I was going to
talk about does. Hopefully you can talk

319
00:26:34.400 --> 00:26:37.039
about the director later or I'll bring
them up later, but that's why I'm

320
00:26:37.039 --> 00:26:47.269
going to say the last Jedi.
It's crazy to me. It's crazy to

321
00:26:47.390 --> 00:26:52.230
me that every time I watch this
film it feels more and more like a

322
00:26:52.349 --> 00:27:02.859
star wars film then any of the
others in the trilogy, in this Sequel

323
00:27:02.900 --> 00:27:07.259
Trilogy. It's weird that that it
feels that way, but it is the

324
00:27:07.339 --> 00:27:11.019
truth. I mean sure it's not
as like, let's say, action packed

325
00:27:11.099 --> 00:27:15.890
maybe as the rise of skyroker,
because that's like literally like the final war.

326
00:27:17.289 --> 00:27:22.410
It's not as let's say, like
fast based Dialogy as the force awakens,

327
00:27:23.170 --> 00:27:37.200
but it does really delve deep into
a lot of like emotional thematic stuff.

328
00:27:37.920 --> 00:27:41.079
I couldn't find another word so I
just said stuff. The scene with

329
00:27:41.359 --> 00:27:48.990
with Yoda and Luke, the the
dual sequence between, you know, with

330
00:27:48.230 --> 00:27:55.349
with Ray and kilo versus the the
imperial guards, the battle of crate,

331
00:27:56.349 --> 00:28:03.859
the dialog between Kilo and Luke at
the end, Luke literally being all ascended

332
00:28:03.980 --> 00:28:11.099
Jedi at the end. I mean
you know that the whole you know,

333
00:28:11.220 --> 00:28:18.890
the greatest teacher failure is like really
like wow, you know, something about

334
00:28:18.890 --> 00:28:22.130
this film just keeps getting better and
better and better. And it's strangely enough,

335
00:28:22.130 --> 00:28:26.160
because mean the most memorable out of
the three, which is sort of

336
00:28:26.279 --> 00:28:32.279
what happened with the original trilogy,
because Empire Strikes Back is the most memorable

337
00:28:32.640 --> 00:28:37.160
technically speaking, and so yeah,
it's very interesting to me that that this

338
00:28:37.319 --> 00:28:44.390
film is becoming more and more powerful
the more I watch it. So,

339
00:28:44.509 --> 00:28:47.549
yeah, that's the and Andy Circus
is linked to it because he plays,

340
00:28:48.710 --> 00:28:53.109
you know, supreme leader smoke.
So it's, you know, a character

341
00:28:53.230 --> 00:28:56.579
that a lot of that cause,
a lot of the controversy was that,

342
00:28:56.700 --> 00:29:02.059
you know, snoke was killed off
in the second one, but I don't

343
00:29:02.099 --> 00:29:06.099
know. Something about the last Jedi
man hits me every time and I fall

344
00:29:06.220 --> 00:29:10.529
in love with it every every time. You know, as maybe weak as

345
00:29:10.650 --> 00:29:14.210
the character of rose is, or
the way that critics of the film saw

346
00:29:14.369 --> 00:29:18.450
the character of rose, she delivers
one of the best lines, I think,

347
00:29:18.450 --> 00:29:22.289
in the film, which is that's
how we'll win, by, you

348
00:29:22.410 --> 00:29:26.000
know, like by not killing what
we hate but by saving what we love.

349
00:29:26.240 --> 00:29:30.160
That's how we'll win, and I
think that's such a beautiful sentence to

350
00:29:30.279 --> 00:29:36.599
hear in these times, in two
thousand and twenty, where everybody seems to

351
00:29:36.640 --> 00:29:41.829
be pointing the finger at everybody else
and there's division everywhere. I think what

352
00:29:41.950 --> 00:29:45.069
we need to be focusing on is
the things that we love versus the things

353
00:29:45.109 --> 00:29:47.910
that we hate, and this is
sort of what I want for script to

354
00:29:47.990 --> 00:29:51.190
screen to start doing, not that
we weren't doing it before, but I

355
00:29:51.269 --> 00:29:53.539
want to do more of which is
Lebrating the thing that we love, which

356
00:29:53.619 --> 00:29:57.819
is movies and which is storytelling and
which is TV shows and and all that.

357
00:29:59.099 --> 00:30:03.539
Yep, thank you for coming to
my dead dog. Listen. I

358
00:30:03.339 --> 00:30:07.930
am not going to add much to
what you said because it's it's a movie

359
00:30:07.009 --> 00:30:14.529
with discussed over and over again.
It's a movie I love. It's again.

360
00:30:15.529 --> 00:30:21.049
It's how the Star Wars Universe is
just the fan base, excuse me,

361
00:30:21.410 --> 00:30:25.640
is just taking things to personally like. They own it in such a

362
00:30:25.720 --> 00:30:32.160
way and opinions fly left and right. They were not satisfied with the force

363
00:30:32.200 --> 00:30:34.789
awakens because it they felt it was
a replica of a new hope. Right.

364
00:30:34.869 --> 00:30:38.309
They try to do something a bit
different. They didn't like that either.

365
00:30:38.990 --> 00:30:44.710
I thoroughly enjoy the movie. I
Love I've always loved it, even

366
00:30:44.750 --> 00:30:48.029
when you went through your face of
not enjoying at one point. I like

367
00:30:48.190 --> 00:30:52.380
to below the dark times, the
dark times, I like defending this movie.

368
00:30:52.900 --> 00:30:56.619
It does things differently. It showed
showcases characters in a different way,

369
00:30:57.339 --> 00:31:06.569
and I mean the watch. His
name, Ryan Johnson, was just destroyed

370
00:31:06.690 --> 00:31:11.769
for doing this movie. And I
think, I think. I think it's

371
00:31:11.809 --> 00:31:17.769
a very underappreciated movie. Honestly,
I think people should watch it and look

372
00:31:17.809 --> 00:31:21.440
at the messages, look at things
a bit more on on a deeper level,

373
00:31:21.559 --> 00:31:26.839
on a more philosophical of all and
it's it's a great star wars movie.

374
00:31:26.720 --> 00:31:33.789
Agreed, agreed. So I have
to think of someone that is linked

375
00:31:33.789 --> 00:31:38.950
to this movie. So I'm going
to take the very easy way out because

376
00:31:40.069 --> 00:31:44.390
my brain is completely going Kaca right
now. It's all right, it's all

377
00:31:44.430 --> 00:31:55.460
good. I am going to go
for an actor which really interested me in

378
00:31:55.579 --> 00:32:02.609
this role. I'm going to talk
about Chris Evans in Ryan Johnson's film knives

379
00:32:02.650 --> 00:32:08.450
out. Yes, and and by
the way, if you have not watched

380
00:32:08.490 --> 00:32:14.289
it once your lunch it now.
Watch it now. But spoiler alert,

381
00:32:14.369 --> 00:32:19.119
because I'm going to get into a
lot of sports spoiler territory. So you've

382
00:32:19.200 --> 00:32:25.079
been warned to now nice out,
great film. I'm so happy this,

383
00:32:25.240 --> 00:32:30.430
I'm so happy you pick this.
I'm so happy on many levels with this

384
00:32:30.589 --> 00:32:34.630
movie and Chris Evans. I'm very
happy for Ryan Johnson for him making this

385
00:32:34.789 --> 00:32:38.069
movie after Star Wars, because he
got bashed and bashed and bashed and then

386
00:32:38.150 --> 00:32:42.549
he came in. It's doing equal
to it as well. So it's great,

387
00:32:43.390 --> 00:32:45.980
exactly, and he is, you
know, now being praised for this

388
00:32:46.140 --> 00:32:50.539
movie. He's been. He did
a movie back in the day called looper,

389
00:32:50.660 --> 00:32:52.579
which was excellent, and that's how
he died. And I think the

390
00:32:52.660 --> 00:32:57.099
Star Wars Universe and I think he
was treated in such an unfair way.

391
00:32:57.460 --> 00:33:00.089
That's for Ryan Johnson, but he's
not the person I want to focus on.

392
00:33:00.210 --> 00:33:02.170
It's Chris Evans. So Chris Evans
has always been, you know,

393
00:33:02.250 --> 00:33:07.130
Captain America or this kind of Mr
Good guy or this this, this is

394
00:33:07.490 --> 00:33:13.359
very American, that kind of Male, the objectified Jock, you know,

395
00:33:13.559 --> 00:33:15.400
like that. You know exactly.
Yeah, yeah, he's. He was

396
00:33:15.519 --> 00:33:21.079
that jock in in what's the called
the not another team movie or one of

397
00:33:21.119 --> 00:33:24.799
those you know comedies where they they
made that of the teenager with I think

398
00:33:24.920 --> 00:33:29.829
so. I think he's. Yeah, and he was the American Jock,

399
00:33:29.950 --> 00:33:32.630
you know, he was Captain America. Not that he does a bad job

400
00:33:32.670 --> 00:33:37.109
as captain America, on the contrary, I love him for that. He's

401
00:33:37.269 --> 00:33:42.700
that's my favorite character in the mcu. But what's he does? It knives

402
00:33:42.740 --> 00:33:47.859
out. Is he toys with with
your emotions, and I know the Arma

403
00:33:47.980 --> 00:33:54.420
says emotions and everyone he's such a
sleezy, annoying character that at some point

404
00:33:54.500 --> 00:33:59.089
you root for and he and you're
like, okay, no, he's not

405
00:33:59.170 --> 00:34:02.890
such a bad guy, he's just
misunderstood. And then the evolution of things

406
00:34:02.970 --> 00:34:09.239
and how he transforms and take gets
out of this Mr America or Captain America

407
00:34:09.280 --> 00:34:14.519
or the All American hero, good
guy and turns out to be such a

408
00:34:14.920 --> 00:34:23.550
Dick who has a plan and who's
who tries to kill Annada Armas's character.

409
00:34:23.989 --> 00:34:29.909
His performance is on point in this
movie. He goes from you not really

410
00:34:29.949 --> 00:34:31.989
liking him to you loving him,
to you rooting for him, to you

411
00:34:32.190 --> 00:34:38.460
seeing feeling compassionate for him and appreciating
what he's doing to help, to seeing

412
00:34:38.619 --> 00:34:45.059
that he is the biggest thick,
such a bad guy, such a smart,

413
00:34:45.500 --> 00:34:49.860
evil plotting person, and it's it's
a breath of fresh air when you

414
00:34:49.940 --> 00:34:54.449
see an actor coming out off if
you want this kind of label or this

415
00:34:54.610 --> 00:35:00.489
passage of him, absolutely this kind
of actor, and so that's why Chris

416
00:35:00.610 --> 00:35:06.889
Evans does fantastic job in that agreed. Agreed. Yeah, I don't have

417
00:35:06.969 --> 00:35:08.320
any, any, any, anything
else to add to that, because that

418
00:35:08.440 --> 00:35:12.960
was that was so on point.
It's always refreshing to see actors breaking out

419
00:35:13.000 --> 00:35:16.880
of their typecast roles, and I
think Ryan, I think Ryan Johnson did

420
00:35:16.920 --> 00:35:22.469
that with every single one of those
actors in knives out. He broke them

421
00:35:22.510 --> 00:35:27.710
out of a mold, because you
got to see all these actors playing roles

422
00:35:27.750 --> 00:35:31.909
that you never necessarily saw them play
before and it was very, very refreshing.

423
00:35:31.949 --> 00:35:36.300
I mean Daniel Craig's performance and knives
out in and of itself is just

424
00:35:36.619 --> 00:35:39.460
it's amazing. Oh, it is. Yeah, and I can't wait to

425
00:35:39.500 --> 00:35:45.420
see him in this Equel to that
film. Yeah, so I'm going to

426
00:35:45.539 --> 00:35:49.300
give you. I'm going to give
you a movie. I don't know what

427
00:35:49.340 --> 00:35:52.650
you've seen this movie. That's a
problem when you give okay movie. You

428
00:35:52.769 --> 00:35:55.849
know what? No, I'm going
to go for like a go for it.

429
00:35:55.929 --> 00:35:59.250
It's fine, it's fine, go
for it. That's the challenge.

430
00:35:59.289 --> 00:36:02.250
I guess I'll have to find a
way around this film. So go for

431
00:36:02.409 --> 00:36:09.000
it. Okay. So there's way. Oh my God, I'm shooting blanks.

432
00:36:09.039 --> 00:36:15.000
I forgot the name of the movie. I'm just checking a hold down,

433
00:36:15.079 --> 00:36:16.320
man. Okay, yeah, they're
there. Here we are, so

434
00:36:16.519 --> 00:36:22.789
it's a movie which was released in
two thousand and seventeen. It's called gifted.

435
00:36:22.190 --> 00:36:28.309
I don't know if you've ever seen
it. Christ and what's her face?

436
00:36:28.510 --> 00:36:34.659
And McKenna grace. Yeah, yeah, exactly, exactly. I think

437
00:36:34.699 --> 00:36:38.300
it's also like the very cute movie. It's a movie that's not a lot

438
00:36:38.340 --> 00:36:42.539
of people have seen and, you
know, I feel like talking about it.

439
00:36:42.699 --> 00:36:45.659
I feel like pushing people to maybe
watch these feel good movies, these

440
00:36:45.699 --> 00:36:52.610
nice movies, and it's a light
movie about this this single man who's raising

441
00:36:52.130 --> 00:36:59.250
his niece, and his niece is
like super genius, Super Smart, very

442
00:36:59.329 --> 00:37:01.199
witty and they have such a beautiful
bond. And I think what's her name?

443
00:37:01.199 --> 00:37:05.360
Octavia spencers in it too, if
I'm not see again. Yes,

444
00:37:05.440 --> 00:37:08.880
she is. Yeah, and what
happens is that his mother, so the

445
00:37:08.960 --> 00:37:17.469
girl's grandmother, comes into the picture
and wants to take the the the girl

446
00:37:17.630 --> 00:37:22.909
from him and raise her her herself
and take her and put her into this

447
00:37:24.070 --> 00:37:29.789
Ivy League school and Whatnot, and
they start to fight over the daughter.

448
00:37:30.260 --> 00:37:32.460
And I think the performances are on
point. It's got a lot of heart.

449
00:37:34.179 --> 00:37:40.260
It shows you about five family dynamics
which are sometimes dysfunctional look, it's

450
00:37:40.300 --> 00:37:45.690
a few good movie, which is, I think, ideal for covid times

451
00:37:45.530 --> 00:37:50.730
and, you know, all around
performances are very sweet, very great.

452
00:37:50.769 --> 00:37:54.170
Octavia Spencer is just lovely in it, as that the neighbor who takes care

453
00:37:54.210 --> 00:38:02.840
of the little girl. Yeah,
that's it. Okay, so you were

454
00:38:02.880 --> 00:38:07.039
right. I have not seen gifted. I did want to watch it,

455
00:38:07.119 --> 00:38:10.880
but I did not watch I have
not watched it, but I have seen

456
00:38:10.920 --> 00:38:19.030
another film that the director of gifted
helmed. It is one of my all

457
00:38:19.110 --> 00:38:23.750
time favorite indie films and it is
none other than five hundred days of summer.

458
00:38:23.750 --> 00:38:31.699
Yeah, the I so many things
to say about this movie and the

459
00:38:31.940 --> 00:38:37.500
genius of this movie. If you
haven't seen it, please go watch it

460
00:38:37.699 --> 00:38:42.250
if you're into independent films. It
is bitter sweet. I'm not going to

461
00:38:42.289 --> 00:38:45.849
say it's a it's a it's not
a happy go lucky movie. It is

462
00:38:45.969 --> 00:38:55.079
bitter sweet, but it's genius.
It's beautifully written and and brilliantly executed,

463
00:38:55.280 --> 00:39:04.159
with some fantastic performances by Jg l
George Joseph Gordon Levitt and Zoe editionelle and

464
00:39:04.559 --> 00:39:08.760
a chloe Moretts and Matthew Grey.
Googler. I mean like there's the cast

465
00:39:08.840 --> 00:39:14.110
is so good, the script is
so good. One of my favorite sequences

466
00:39:14.190 --> 00:39:16.070
in the film. So yeah,
spoiler if you haven't seen it. One

467
00:39:16.110 --> 00:39:22.150
of the my favorite sequences in the
film. It's pretty much memed all the

468
00:39:22.230 --> 00:39:27.699
time now. It is the reality
versus expectation sequence at the party. It

469
00:39:28.420 --> 00:39:34.500
literally, Mark Webb literally splits the
screen into two small boxes where you see

470
00:39:35.179 --> 00:39:39.130
the reality and you see the expectation
of this main character going into the party

471
00:39:39.489 --> 00:39:45.130
and they play simultaneously on the screen
and it is just a wonder to watch

472
00:39:45.690 --> 00:39:50.969
because it's so relatable, because we've
all been in that situation where we're expecting

473
00:39:51.050 --> 00:39:53.800
something and it doesn't work out the
way we wanted it. Too. It's

474
00:39:53.960 --> 00:39:57.639
so good, it's so good,
it's so good. I don't know what

475
00:39:57.760 --> 00:40:00.119
else to say about it, aside
from the fact that it's so good.

476
00:40:00.199 --> 00:40:05.719
Like that, that's basically what I
what I really love about this movie,

477
00:40:05.880 --> 00:40:13.590
honestly, is that it's a bit
more realistic in terms of breaking up with

478
00:40:13.710 --> 00:40:20.710
someone, in terms of relationships.
Maybe it does have a bitter sweet,

479
00:40:20.750 --> 00:40:24.579
it's kind of ending, but they
do deal, they do, you know,

480
00:40:25.539 --> 00:40:30.380
dive into the dynamics of a relationship. And what it is to be

481
00:40:30.500 --> 00:40:35.059
very happy with that someone at first, and then you know, the problems

482
00:40:35.099 --> 00:40:39.369
evolving and then the breakup itself and
people moving on and you having to move

483
00:40:39.449 --> 00:40:45.369
on and whatnot. And I mean
the performances, as you said, are

484
00:40:45.530 --> 00:40:51.679
just on point. That sequence,
which is over the top, where they

485
00:40:51.760 --> 00:40:59.639
dance in the park to that,
yes, yes, even, but but

486
00:40:59.800 --> 00:41:01.239
it does express, but it does
show a lot what it is to be

487
00:41:01.320 --> 00:41:07.190
in love with someone, because I
think when we are in love we just

488
00:41:07.349 --> 00:41:12.869
want to get up and dance and
and see cartoon birds left and right and

489
00:41:13.110 --> 00:41:19.980
saying I that's what I want to
say about how awesome this this, this

490
00:41:20.179 --> 00:41:23.460
movie is. Five hundred days of
summer, and thank God they did not

491
00:41:24.059 --> 00:41:28.980
hop on the sequel train with five. Yeah, I think autumn. Yes,

492
00:41:29.219 --> 00:41:32.889
yes, that was sort of a
spoiler for anybody hasn't seen the film.

493
00:41:34.050 --> 00:41:37.929
But I do have to also say
that I love the fact that the

494
00:41:37.969 --> 00:41:40.849
film is Non Linear in the way
that it tells its story. You never,

495
00:41:40.969 --> 00:41:45.449
I don't think you ever, fully
get the full story right, like

496
00:41:45.570 --> 00:41:49.920
you only get certain days of the
five out. You don't get all five

497
00:41:49.960 --> 00:41:52.119
hundred, do you, of course? Of course. No, no,

498
00:41:52.239 --> 00:41:54.000
you don't. Yeah, you can
get link for three things. The first

499
00:41:54.039 --> 00:41:58.920
thing, yeah, exactly, and
exactly, an anniversary and the break up

500
00:41:59.000 --> 00:42:00.670
and whatnot. So in the first
but they're not told it, and the

501
00:42:00.710 --> 00:42:04.989
beauty of it is that they're not
told in order. That's that's what's fit

502
00:42:05.110 --> 00:42:07.750
has signpost logical. Yeah, all
right. So moving right along here,

503
00:42:07.789 --> 00:42:10.750
I'm going to make things a little
challenging as we dwindle down here, because

504
00:42:10.750 --> 00:42:15.900
we're almost at the end of our
show. Yeah, but I do,

505
00:42:15.179 --> 00:42:17.860
I do have to take is I
you know, I could have gone the

506
00:42:17.900 --> 00:42:21.099
easy way, Rounte, I could
have said Zoe Editionale, I could have

507
00:42:21.139 --> 00:42:27.420
said Chloe Moretts as far as somebody
linked to five hundred days of summer,

508
00:42:27.579 --> 00:42:30.210
but I am going to talk about
Matthew Grey Googler, and the reason being

509
00:42:30.329 --> 00:42:35.329
is because he was on a show
that I was a huge fan of for

510
00:42:35.409 --> 00:42:39.889
a long time, a show that
I think this year ended like they it

511
00:42:40.050 --> 00:42:45.159
was like the finale, and I
do believe it was like fourteen a no,

512
00:42:45.400 --> 00:42:47.159
I do believe is like ten seasons, if I was not mistaken,

513
00:42:50.320 --> 00:42:55.519
no longer than ten seasons. Just
kidding. It was is oh my God,

514
00:42:55.599 --> 00:43:00.789
Oh my God, Oh my God, fifteen, fifteen bloody seasons.

515
00:43:00.710 --> 00:43:06.510
Another show that that knock fifteen,
because supernatural is now on their final fifteen

516
00:43:06.550 --> 00:43:09.750
season as well. Fifteen seasons of
this show. It's called criminal minds.

517
00:43:12.980 --> 00:43:19.739
It was so good. It was
so good and Matthew Greig googler played Spencer

518
00:43:19.820 --> 00:43:24.179
read, who was not a normal
like or, let's say, I don't

519
00:43:24.179 --> 00:43:27.099
want to use the word normal.
That was horrible for me to say that,

520
00:43:27.449 --> 00:43:30.289
but he was a part. He
was a character that struggled with a

521
00:43:30.369 --> 00:43:38.530
lot of mental health type situations.
His mother, I believe, was like

522
00:43:39.449 --> 00:43:45.280
schizophrenic and so for a while he
thought he was also schizophrenic. And the

523
00:43:45.360 --> 00:43:49.000
show is not like a happy go
lug a show. Obviously it's very dark

524
00:43:50.280 --> 00:43:54.280
and and a lot of episodes are
very twisted. But he does such a

525
00:43:54.400 --> 00:44:00.349
good job in this show. That's
how I got introduced to Matthew Gear Goubler

526
00:44:00.429 --> 00:44:02.989
and then I saw fur froundred days
of summer. He's so good in the

527
00:44:04.110 --> 00:44:08.550
show, his evolution as a character, his his quirts, like he found

528
00:44:08.630 --> 00:44:13.860
ways to make Spencer so human and
and you empathize and you fall in love

529
00:44:13.940 --> 00:44:17.940
with this character so much because of
how emotional he is as well. So

530
00:44:19.099 --> 00:44:22.460
I think he was very much the
heart of criminal minds. Was the heart

531
00:44:22.539 --> 00:44:27.650
of the show. I know a
lot of people might think it was penelope,

532
00:44:27.730 --> 00:44:30.610
who was kind of like their it
girl, but she was more of

533
00:44:30.650 --> 00:44:35.769
the humor and the lightheartedness of the
show, whereas Spencer was really the heart

534
00:44:35.769 --> 00:44:38.119
of the show, the emotional glue
of the show, which is why I

535
00:44:38.199 --> 00:44:42.320
think he was one of the only
characters that was on the show from beginning

536
00:44:42.320 --> 00:44:46.920
to end, aside from Christen van
Vangness, who plays penelope, the it

537
00:44:47.159 --> 00:44:52.039
girl. He he was one of
the only hairages that really stuck on from

538
00:44:52.079 --> 00:44:59.909
beginning to end. And Yeah,
that's why I talk about so we're in

539
00:44:59.989 --> 00:45:05.429
quite the pickle right now because I
have not watched criminal minds right and I

540
00:45:05.750 --> 00:45:09.219
have not seen any of his movies
besides five hundred days of summer. Well,

541
00:45:09.460 --> 00:45:14.019
here's what you can do, because
I do believe if you Google criminal

542
00:45:14.059 --> 00:45:19.659
minds, kind of do what I
did with gifted, I think you might

543
00:45:19.699 --> 00:45:22.010
be able to get yourself out of
that pickle. So I have to find

544
00:45:22.130 --> 00:45:29.329
someone from okay. So, okay, I have someone, yeah, which

545
00:45:29.329 --> 00:45:34.130
is Thomas Gibson, who was on
criminal minds, which I can't. I

546
00:45:34.170 --> 00:45:37.760
can't talk about him on criminal minds
because I've not watched him on criminal minds.

547
00:45:37.159 --> 00:45:40.480
But I did used to watch him
on a fun show back in the

548
00:45:40.519 --> 00:45:45.800
day called Darmin Greg. I love
Domine Greg. That was like, that

549
00:45:46.000 --> 00:45:50.349
was a fun show. It was
a five, four or five season.

550
00:45:51.550 --> 00:45:55.230
Lived the show with Jenna Elfman.
Yes, I love her so much,

551
00:45:57.469 --> 00:46:04.030
and it was interested because these two
characters were just polar opposites. She was

552
00:46:04.110 --> 00:46:07.619
just like very free spirited and in
her kind of own bubble and Lala,

553
00:46:07.739 --> 00:46:13.340
and that he was this lawyer who
was who came from money and his mother

554
00:46:13.659 --> 00:46:19.849
and his parents were just, you
know, so nippicky and her parents were

555
00:46:19.969 --> 00:46:24.730
also these very open minded and hippish, if you want, kind of cap

556
00:46:24.849 --> 00:46:28.090
and it was. It was a
fun show. It's had a lot of

557
00:46:28.250 --> 00:46:31.409
heart. It had very funny moments, it was very cute. Their dynamics

558
00:46:31.570 --> 00:46:37.800
was on point. Yeah, I
thoroughly enjoyed Darmond Greg back in the day.

559
00:46:38.000 --> 00:46:43.639
So sorry to put you in that
pickle, but I knew there was

560
00:46:43.679 --> 00:46:45.360
a way free to wigger yourself.
It was either going to be Tom's and

561
00:46:45.440 --> 00:46:50.550
for me or it was going to
be John Joe Joe. Shoot, ever,

562
00:46:50.670 --> 00:46:53.230
I don't know how to say his
last name. Joe Men Mente meant

563
00:46:53.309 --> 00:46:59.630
to Mentanium, and Tagnamn whatever was
in later. Know who was it?

564
00:46:59.789 --> 00:47:07.860
Like baby's Day out and yeah,
you know the godfather part three. You

565
00:47:07.940 --> 00:47:10.860
know film called searching for Bobby Fisher. So I figured it was either going

566
00:47:10.860 --> 00:47:16.969
to be Tom s Gibson or or
Joe. Yeah, but yeah, all

567
00:47:17.010 --> 00:47:20.409
right, you want to, you
want to you want to jump for like

568
00:47:20.570 --> 00:47:23.130
one last one before we do our
recommendations, just like something relating to you

569
00:47:23.690 --> 00:47:28.449
want to say. You want to
say anything about Darmond Greg or? I

570
00:47:28.530 --> 00:47:30.840
mean, I loved it. I
thought it was fun. I'm almost tempted

571
00:47:30.880 --> 00:47:36.840
to try to find a way to
like like rewatch it somehow. Yeah,

572
00:47:36.840 --> 00:47:39.440
because it was a fun little Sitcom
and I've really been in the mood for

573
00:47:40.079 --> 00:47:45.750
S, like Sitcoms, and like
I think this one was like late S,

574
00:47:45.829 --> 00:47:50.510
though I don't think it was like
early s, because it was like

575
00:47:50.710 --> 00:47:53.030
post the friends era, I think
now. Yeah, it was nine seven,

576
00:47:53.349 --> 00:47:57.269
ninety seven. Yeah, so it
was like okay, so not completely

577
00:47:57.309 --> 00:48:01.420
post the friends era, but like
you know, midway through the friends are

578
00:48:01.579 --> 00:48:07.820
maybe. Yeah, and it ended
in two thousand and two. So I

579
00:48:07.940 --> 00:48:10.260
mean, yeah, I love the
show. I think Jenna Elfman was was

580
00:48:10.579 --> 00:48:13.929
is, but you know, she
looks. She's so much fun. She's

581
00:48:13.969 --> 00:48:16.530
so much fun on the show and
I think their chemistry together. I think

582
00:48:16.530 --> 00:48:20.690
Thomas Gibson is a great actor.
I think there were a lot of issues

583
00:48:20.769 --> 00:48:22.889
on the criminal mindset as to why, because at one point he left the

584
00:48:22.969 --> 00:48:25.650
show. So I think there were
issues and stuff. But, like,

585
00:48:27.280 --> 00:48:30.119
I think her, Thomas Gibson and
Jane Elman did a great job. I

586
00:48:30.239 --> 00:48:36.400
think their chemistry was literally like the
selling point of the show in many ways.

587
00:48:37.639 --> 00:48:43.750
Yeah, I'M gonna go for the
last one. Yeah, go ahead.

588
00:48:44.750 --> 00:48:49.389
Okay, so I'm going to link
what's it called Dharma and Gregg to

589
00:48:49.550 --> 00:48:52.949
a movie which I personally really like. It's not very popular, it's not

590
00:48:52.989 --> 00:48:55.099
the best movie out there, but
I enjoy on many levels, which is

591
00:48:55.179 --> 00:49:00.219
a movie she started in with Ben
Stiller and Edward Norton called keeping the faith.

592
00:49:00.699 --> 00:49:07.019
Okay, if you've seen it,
but you have not, it's I

593
00:49:07.179 --> 00:49:13.769
recommend you check it out because it
has so many very nice message. I'm

594
00:49:13.769 --> 00:49:15.610
not going to spoil it for you. I'm not going to spoil it for

595
00:49:15.650 --> 00:49:19.250
anyone. I'll leave it that it's
a movie that does deed it with faith

596
00:49:19.289 --> 00:49:24.599
and religion and faith in people and
in friends and friendships and whatnot. It

597
00:49:24.840 --> 00:49:29.960
also, you know, tackles being
in love with someone for so long and

598
00:49:30.800 --> 00:49:37.760
how love can maybe sometimes come and
and play with your faith, play with

599
00:49:37.880 --> 00:49:44.070
your belief system. Yeah, again, I can't because you haven't seen it

600
00:49:44.190 --> 00:49:46.670
and because I would like you to
see it. I'M NOT gonna go too

601
00:49:46.750 --> 00:49:52.670
much into it, but just the
premises about this priest and rabbi were best

602
00:49:52.710 --> 00:49:57.940
friends with Jina Elphin's character when they
were kids. They grew up and he

603
00:49:57.940 --> 00:50:01.099
becomes a priest and he becomes a
rabbi and there's kind of a love triangle

604
00:50:01.219 --> 00:50:06.980
between them and you know, check
it out to see what happens between them.

605
00:50:07.139 --> 00:50:12.769
But you know what I do loves
tackling and I is that Edward Norton

606
00:50:12.929 --> 00:50:16.889
actually directed the film as well,
and that's very esn't it is. It

607
00:50:17.050 --> 00:50:21.679
is and it does deal with faith
on so many levels, faith when people

608
00:50:21.800 --> 00:50:25.400
faith in religion. But that's what
I like about this movie. Yeah,

609
00:50:27.199 --> 00:50:30.639
I did not. I was looking
at the film and I saw Jenna Elfman's

610
00:50:30.719 --> 00:50:36.150
like film listing or like what she's
been and I had no idea she was

611
00:50:36.309 --> 00:50:40.030
as she was on fear the walking
dead. That's kind of cool. Yeah,

612
00:50:40.030 --> 00:50:44.789
I haven't seeing fear the walking that
I've seen one season, so not

613
00:50:44.989 --> 00:50:49.269
enough to get to where she is, but have been watching the walking dead

614
00:50:49.349 --> 00:50:52.900
and the last episode is very disappointing. But yeah, that's that's another conversation.

615
00:50:53.260 --> 00:50:59.099
Yea. All right, on that
note, we are going to bring

616
00:50:59.099 --> 00:51:04.929
the show to a close with our
recommendations. What would you recommend for this

617
00:51:05.130 --> 00:51:07.289
for for this week? I'd I
think I'm going to go with one of

618
00:51:07.329 --> 00:51:13.889
the films that that I kind of
mentioned me too earlier, and let's see

619
00:51:13.929 --> 00:51:15.730
which one. Do I go for
it? Do I go for the for

620
00:51:15.849 --> 00:51:22.840
that one or that one? I'm
it's driving me crazy. Okay, you

621
00:51:22.960 --> 00:51:25.239
know what, no, I'm gonna
go for a hopeful one. I'm gonna

622
00:51:25.280 --> 00:51:30.159
go for let's go for the last
Jedi. I think if you haven't,

623
00:51:30.400 --> 00:51:32.030
if you're a star wars fan,
and if you're not a star wars fan,

624
00:51:32.070 --> 00:51:36.829
I would say, or like just
a casual watch over star wars,

625
00:51:37.030 --> 00:51:38.909
I would say watch the last Jedi. I think I think it's a very

626
00:51:38.949 --> 00:51:43.230
nice, hopeful message. It ends
in a very hopeful tone, even though

627
00:51:43.230 --> 00:51:46.860
there's a lot of like dark moments
in the film and it kind of feels

628
00:51:46.900 --> 00:51:52.940
like it's hopeless, as star wars
usually does. You know, when Star

629
00:51:52.940 --> 00:51:54.739
Wars is at its best, it's
reminding us that even in the darkest times

630
00:51:54.780 --> 00:52:00.139
there is hope, and so that's
that's what I would recommend. I'm going

631
00:52:00.179 --> 00:52:04.769
to be much shorter with my recommendation
because I just talked about it. I'm

632
00:52:04.809 --> 00:52:07.849
going to go for keeping the faith. Okay, for all the reasons I

633
00:52:07.969 --> 00:52:13.730
mentioned before, and it's also kind
of an uplifting, feel good movie,

634
00:52:15.130 --> 00:52:19.440
which is not bad. And you
know, what better times to because I'm

635
00:52:19.440 --> 00:52:22.159
sure a lot of people are questioning
their faith, whatever it may be,

636
00:52:22.719 --> 00:52:25.119
whatever they're going through in life,
and so why not watch this and that

637
00:52:25.199 --> 00:52:30.829
might help exactly. Hey, I
