It's What We Do! Podcast
Woman of the Hour!
Could film algorithms be shaping the way we experience content? In a rollercoaster of an episode, we kick things off with a bone-chilling review of Netflix's “Woman of the Hour,” where Anna Kendrick shines in a story based on the unsettling true events of 1970s serial killer Rodney Alcala. We unravel how Alcala's creepy charisma played into his deadly antics and celebrate the intuition of a character who narrowly escapes his grasp. With humor as our ally, we even ponder how platform algorithms might be crafting the tales we consume, sprinkling light-hearted banter throughout.
Have you ever imagined Tom Hanks in a family drama tinged with heartbreak and humor? Picture young Hanks navigating the ups and downs of familial love and turmoil against the backdrop of his wife's Alzheimer's struggle. Our conversation paints a vivid picture of dramatic and eccentric characters, from a pilot ignoring ominous warnings to a housekeeper's unexpected COVID-era demise. We share our thoughts on poignant social commentary and relish in the shared joys of TV shows, comics, and fashion, with a nod to the exciting Tekken and Nike collab that has us buzzing with anticipation.
Our musings continue with a spirited debate on the art of movie trailers and the mixed bag that is Hollywood remakes. While we eagerly await “Gladiator 2,” we're split on whether it will rise to its legendary predecessor's grandeur. We also explore Quentin Tarantino's blunt views on remakes and how directors today are painting their own creative canvases. Wrapping up, we sprinkle in some laughs about unexpected movie obsessions and sign off with warm wishes and a playful call for engagement, inviting our listeners to connect with us across platforms.

you know it's what we do. Hello everyone and welcome to another episode of the it's what we do podcast. I am john here with my co-host, hen, and on the it's what we Do podcast we talk about everything about movies, tv, shoes.
Speaker 2:You talk about shoes occasionally, yeah we do.
Speaker 1:Oh my god, I'm just dropping everything Movies, TV shows and all that sorts of stuff and you know, if you like what we have to say and even if you don't like it, please like and subscribe and turn on that notification bell. Thank you very much.
Speaker 2:Yes, thank you thank you On this fine episode. We'll be covering just anything right now, Because right now it seems like we're in a major movie drought kind of thing. Or theater-wise and stuff. Hell, I know Mr Honey has seen the latest and greatest movie from a lot of Netflix called Woman of the Hour, so starring Anna Kendrick.
Speaker 1:Yeah her, and what did you?
Speaker 2:think of that bad boy John.
Speaker 1:It was pretty interesting. I mean, I felt like the movie was just a smidge of the story Well, not really a story of just the events that happened in the 70s with the serial killer. What was his name? Jonathan? No, that was what was his name Jonathan. No, that was definitely not his name. His name was. His name was like I don't know.
Speaker 2:He had like a goofy His name was like Rudy or something who gives a shit. Okay, okay. And then this movie is based off real shit.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, what was his name? His name was Rodney. And then this movie is based off real shit. Oh yeah, what was his name? His name was Rodney.
Speaker 2:Kane.
Speaker 1:Rodney, rodney Alcala. And so pretty much it's about him you know being a serial killer. Oh no, I'm sorry, he ends up on this kind of like those lovey-dovey, like Bachelor shows or Bachelorette shows where three guys compete to get the Bachelorette and then they go on like on a trip or whatever you know, just like those cheesy, like little shows that they had back then. And so it shows us a few different kills that he did like throughout the movie. It shows us a few different kills that he did throughout the movie.
Speaker 1:She's the main one only for the only reason that she was the one that escaped or pretty much avoided getting killed by him, because if she were to go on that trip, obviously she would have got killed. If she would have spent the night with him, obviously she would have got killed. But other girls in the past, serial serial killers or psychopaths, if you will, they usually have like these narcissistic charismatic traits.
Speaker 2:you know, they, they know what to say, they, they know how to work, you know that's what they always say about you you just know the right things to say in the right way, you're always so confident and and you just kill them. Yeah, I was talking about your character.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, and you just kill them, yeah, and then Casually so or unalive. I don't know, is that like? Is it against TAS to say that Unalive someone?
Speaker 2:Or I hear, like a lot of people what they'll say SA oh, that's different. Yeah, no, I was just. It was in that zeitgeist of you know, like shoring things out, just not say the actual thing.
Speaker 1:Yeah, but is it against like TS or something? I don't know.
Speaker 2:I don't know what TS is. Terms and service. I don't think it is. I think it gets nuked by like the algorithm. Oh, but then I swear a lot in these. For saying it. I think. I think that's why a lot of people say that, and then I think it just gets nuked and stuff, but then I swear a lot, so then it also doesn't help either. So yeah, I'm just bringing the ship down already. Oh yeah, there you go.
Speaker 1:Well, I mean for the clip right, save the clip.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I guess we just got to have a clean, clean clip.
Speaker 1:Yeah, there you go. So the Woman of the Hour starring Anna Kendrick and the other guy I don't know his name, I haven't seen him in anything else, but he plays Rodney Alcala and in the movie, essentially what he does is he lures in victims in the 70s and he uses his charisma and narcissistic capabilities to unalive them, right.
Speaker 2:It happens to all of us.
Speaker 1:And then so the main character. She is the main focus of this movie because she was one of them, or maybe the main one, that didn't fall into his clutches. You know they went out after the show. You know, because he won and she did not agree to go back home with him, otherwise she probably would have died or was unalive, and she also did not go on the trip with him, otherwise probably would have ended. Why didn't she? Why didn't she? Because he was creepy, she was creeped out by him. They went to dinner. Afterwards he was like, hey, you know what, let's go to dinner. Let's go to dinner, let's have a little hippie food. I guess Because he was kind of like a hippie.
Speaker 2:What the?
Speaker 1:fuck and he had like the hippie vibes, the psychedelic vibes man. She kind of made fun of him. He didn't like it. He was talking about how I hate when women make fun of me. I know right, it just hurts the ego. Yeah yeah, and the narcissistic.
Speaker 2:I got sensitive ego.
Speaker 1:There you go. I mean, it happens, you know when you got a third leg working and everything.
Speaker 2:You got to swing it around your neck. Wear it as a scarf.
Speaker 1:Yeah, just like that character they based off of you and the boys.
Speaker 2:Oh, you're talking scarf. Yeah, just like that, uh character they based?
Speaker 1:they based off of you and the boys, uh, talking about fucking sausage, yeah, sausage party or whatever his name is.
Speaker 2:Yeah, just yeah, I think he's just.
Speaker 1:Oh, I don't remember yeah something like that anyways, he, uh, he was talking about how, like you know, I feel like a connection with you. You know, you're so smart, you. You're talking about all these books and and all these authors. You know, I'm a poet myself, you know. And then and she's like, oh, yeah, yeah, I love all these authors and stuff. He's like, yeah, you know, I especially like this one because, you know, he speaks to the soul. And she's like, oh, yeah, and he's very far out right, and then, like, his face instantly changes. He's like angry and he's like, yeah, I'm definitely gonna gonna unalive you now I do that whenever someone talks about doing.
Speaker 2:I say something. They say, oh, that's crazy. And then I'm just being sarcastic. I was like what'd you say? What'd you say?
Speaker 1:I'll feed you these goddamn worms right now and um, yeah, that's actually, that's what it was. I mean, she avoids uh death and, unfortunately, all these other victims. They're portrayed in the movie. Well, not all of them, but some of them. He was uh suspected of killing more than 50 people, but there was only like 13 that were actually accounted for yeah, it's also the 70s, so I feel like you just get away with anything, yeah they weren't even really popping off with like you just get away with anything they weren't even like really popping off with, like DNA fingerprints back then, right?
Speaker 1:No, they weren't. You could. I mean a lot of the times.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so much harder to kill someone now.
Speaker 1:It definitely is, I think, Like it was so easy for him to just do it. Like he would take them out to like the middle of nowhere and be like, yeah, free spirit, all this hippie stuff, and then just like, killed him, bit, yeah, how would he go? How, what was his method? Whatever he had, you know a lot of them he would just strangle shit. Jesus christ, I know that's horrible, it's crazy. One of them he strangled and he knocked her out and he brought her back to life.
Speaker 2:Like CPR and then just killed her and killed her again. That's crazy. He's crazy. Yeah, he's a psycho, it's like that thing. No, it reminds me of nothing to do with that, but you know how, like, if you hold your breath, it says like oh, you hold your breath, you can kill yourself whatever, but then you don't are a should I say Unlive yourself. I don't know that wasn't the time to say that.
Speaker 1:I mean, I guess, if anything, we just bleep it.
Speaker 2:I mean we're not doing that. Huh, I mean we're not.
Speaker 1:Just clipping everything, bro. Oh, yeah, yeah, non-plant.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but breath and stuff, just let them pass out, because they'll pass out and start breathing again. Yeah, so it's just like you'll just pass out. So it's not a big deal, just a little brain damage.
Speaker 1:You know, casual brain damage uh, I know people do that or they used to do that, to like get high or whatever yeah, I remember um, when I was like in middle school there was um the passing out game where you'll like squat down. The game.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it was a game. You win every time or you lose, however you want to think about it. But you'll like squat down and then you'll like breathe hard, like deep breaths, for like 30 seconds. Then you stand up, blow into your thumb and then you just pass out. Whoa.
Speaker 2:Yeah, hypothetically, if I was going to do it it, I would have done it a lot of times, especially like even one time I would have done it in the classroom. And then my teacher was like what are you doing? I was like yeah, and it just felt funny because next thing you know, you're just like on the floor people would do that in school yeah, hypothetically yeah hypothetically yeah yeah, and just do it all the time.
Speaker 2:I remember hypothetically, there's like a one time where I, um, I did it, but then when I blew into my thumb I just started farting, because it was like so much pressure, I guess.
Speaker 1:Then it's just like I just farted instead I was like yeah, and hypoth, hypothetically did everyone start laughing.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, that's what you would think would happen, right, yeah, yeah, yeah. So is it a yay or nay for that bad boy? I?
Speaker 1:think it's a yay.
Speaker 2:It's not a comedy.
Speaker 1:right, it's definitely not a comedy, it's more like a thriller.
Speaker 2:It's a thriller. I saw this bad boy, this movie called, here.
Speaker 1:It's starring the one, the only, thomas C Hanks, and then that broad that played Jenny from Forrest Gump, do they?
Speaker 2:have AI for that movie.
Speaker 1:I mean it's. You're talking about D-Fake yeah.
Speaker 2:I mean. Well, I mean, what's the? Yeah.
Speaker 2:I mean the AI is just the money term right now. Yeah, it's the money term, yeah, but yeah, it's just about like, pretty much Like, let's say, you set a GoPro camera in your kitchen right, no, your living room and then the camera just never moves. It'll do snapshots of your life and shit. The movie like goes throughout the generations, from like the dinosaurs up until COVID-19 and stuff, because they do the Black Lives Matter and then the May die to COVID and it's just different families moving in and out of the house. So it's the same scene the entire time.
Speaker 2:Yes, the camera never moves Until the very end, for like, two seconds.
Speaker 2:But then the main part is Tom hanks and like his wife and stuff, like tom hanks is a young cat, you know, even though he sounds like he's fucking 60 and um, he gets a girl pregnant. His girlfriend comes in to move in, right, they get married in the house, they raise their daughter and then eventually, like the wife is always saying, like we need to get our own house, we need to get our own house. And then tom's like nah, forget about it, like I'm just saving up money.
Speaker 2:We need to get our own house. Don't they already have a house? Is there? It's taking tom's parents house and then it's like we need to get our own house, we need to get our own house. And then eventually the parents they moved to florida and they were like, hey, we'll give you the house. And tom's like hell yeah.
Speaker 2:He was like yo and then the mom's like, no, fuck, I don't know, we need our own house, and it's more of like a thing. Whereas he wants, she feels like she's being held back and like she wants to do more. And then tom is like, so, like scared to do anything, you know, because he had to be like grow up quickly, you know, because he had to be, make money, like you know, raise his family and shit like that. So he had to do that, right, and then his wife eventually leaves him because she was like, hey, I want to travel, I'll do this and that, whatever. Yeah, I know, that's what I was thinking, but I understand her position, but it's just like circumstantially, it's just like it's just sad, you know. And uh, yeah, then she gets alzheimer's anyway. So it's just like, fuck your plans. And then she, she left them, like she straight up left them and stuff. But whenever she gets alzheimer's anyways, so it's just like, fuck your plans. And then, uh, she, she left them, like she straight up left them, and stuff. But whenever she gets alzheimer's, I think he takes care of her.
Speaker 2:So it's like, yeah, you know, yeah, couldn't be me, oh, but it was a, it was okay movie, just not worth it and I feel like there's supposed to be like a deeper meaning to it, because there's like one dude who made the lazy boy chair in the house and then he's just chilling. There's this one guy he was like a pilot but his wife's like, hey, you need to stop fucking flying that plane. And he was like don't worry about it. And then he dies because of gas poisoning or something or asbestos, I can't remember. Don't worry about it. Yeah. And then she just died. No, he. So it was like you should have worried a little bit more, because it's like she was saying it's like you're going to crash into this thing, you're going to like da-da-da. He was like I'm a trained pilot, I know what I'm doing, I do maintenance on this bitch. It's 100 exposure of something. That was funny, not an actual accident or anything. He just passed down. That would be like, let's say, Out of all things though.
Speaker 2:That would be like let's say you're what's a dangerous thing a woman wouldn't want you to do? F1 driver.
Speaker 1:I mean that's a dangerous thing. A woman wouldn't want you to do. Um F1, F1 driver. I mean that's the safest thing nowadays you die from missing a step on the stairs.
Speaker 2:You just fall off no, no, no when you're getting out the car, you know how you have to like step up. You step up, you just fall face, dive into the floor. That's that's pretty much what happened to him, yeah. And then it's just funny because it's like, uh, like it was like it was kind of annoying because it's like I see tom's perspective and jenny's perspective, but it's just like it's just a weird dynamic, you know. And uh like she was like hey, I used to use the paint a lot. Why don't you paint anymore? He was like I had to get a job to make money and I was just like he has a great point, he has a great point, but it's just at what point do?
Speaker 1:you? Was she working? Was she stay at home?
Speaker 2:yeah, she stayed home, brother, yeah, and then. But she kept on begging for a house and he did designs of a house but then, like it never happened though, but then he started painting because everyone left, because, you know, his parents left, his parents died and stuff eventually, and so then he just was left in the big-ass house and then started painting and shit, and then there's a. They jumped to the future. I thought it was kind of funny, this lady, she's like the maid nanny, you know, just all-around housekeeper. She was like spraying some like disinfectant. She goes, this smells shit, right, she sprays the shit up. What the fuck? She goes like that. She prays and shit, you know, like Catholic, you know, jewish, hispanic lady, of course, right, and she just dies. What yeah? From what A COVID? What yeah?
Speaker 1:From what A.
Speaker 2:COVID.
Speaker 1:Really yeah.
Speaker 2:Hey, hey.
Speaker 1:In the movie.
Speaker 2:Yes, covid is nothing to sneeze at, dog yeah.
Speaker 2:Oh, and then they also did this where, like it was just Okay because it was like a, like it was a black family and stuff with the, with that maid right and the dad does the talk, or this is what happens like really intensely whenever you get pulled over. You have to very keep your hands on the steering wheel and like slowly reach for the thing, tell them everything you're doing, say yes, no officer, say thank you, officer, and shit like that, and it was like very intentional. I was like, oh, they're fucking doing fucking black lives matters, movement right now. Uh, I'm trying to think of other characters. Uh, there was a um, oh, it was funny, the. The dad told tom hanks he was like because he wanted to be a graphic designer or whatever, that's what he's gonna go school for. But obviously he didn't he. He told him it's like get a real job where you have to wear a suit and it's just like you know, back in the day and stuff, you wore suits casually all the time, 24-7. Other than that, have you seen anything else? No, no, okay, I've seen this show called Overlord. It's an anime. I binge-watched the first full season last night. It's pretty tight. It's an's an anime. Shout out animes. It reminds me a lot of sword art online, where you're like plugged into a game system, whatever your neural link kind of thing.
Speaker 2:And uh, he was playing a game like this is a game that he'd been grinding out for like years and years and years, but I think it was like 12 years or something right. And then, like op as fuck, right, has god level, everything. He had a big guild like 41 members. They all fucked off because, you know, over time I guess games get boring or you know, people grow up or whatever. Right, he's the last one there, and then he's just like the last day he's just kicking it, chilling, right, he's just kicking it, kicking it, and then, whenever it's time the servers go off, servers don't go off, and then he actually seems like he gets uploaded into the game where it's just like he's trapped in the game, and then he's op as fuck.
Speaker 2:And then he has his um npcs. You know they create characters, like they can create their own characters like npcs, like as boss, uh, bosses, you know, like in levels or whatever. So he has all of them and then they actually start talking to him. He was like what's happening? He's like they shouldn't be able to talk and he's talking, one wants to sleep with him too. And yeah, it's okay, it's pretty good, it's an anime stuff, shout out to animes and I finished the first season. There's like four seasons and the reason why I started getting into this was because I saw there was a animated movie that's coming out tomorrow Well, a day recording on Thursday and I was wanting to watch that and I was thinking I was like well, I probably should get caught up, right.
Speaker 2:So I think I might binge, watch it today, tomorrow and then watch it tomorrow or friday. He is right now. There just hasn't been that much action or popping in the movie theaters and stuff, so it's just empty. It feels like yeah yeah, I. Yesterday I re-watched godzilla just because I wanted to get out the house which one uh, minus one, but minus color oh, black and white.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was just whatever oh cool, yeah, but I walked out.
Speaker 2:I was like after the um, after the lady died, I was like all right, I saw enough, just want to see her die again. Hell, no, it's a great movie I've seen. I've probably seen that probably five times since it's been out. Damn, just because I keep on going to theater a lot and it's just like I guess they just kept on going to the theater a lot and it's just like I guess they just kept on keeping it in the theater for a very long time.
Speaker 1:You got the A-list right. Yeah, yeah, she watches three movies a week.
Speaker 2:Most of the time I watch more. There's one thing I was upset about. There was Dune Prophecies coming out two weeks from now, but then tomorrow they're doing a showing at the Alamo Draft House, right, but it's already fucking sold out. And I'm just like upset because I didn't fucking know about this. I wish I would have known before, because I would definitely would have, you know, got tickets for it.
Speaker 1:Prophecy? Is that the show?
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:But there's a showing for it.
Speaker 2:Yeah. Yeah, it's an early screening thing for like the first episode or something. Uh, maybe, probably, it's probably the first episode, yeah.
Speaker 2:And then there's they were doing the uh live, uh q and a's with someone people yeah, yeah, and it's like I'm gonna watch the show but I'm not like overly, overly hyped about the show yet, whatever you know, because it's like the way I in my mentality it's like this takes place a thousand, no, ten thousand years before dune right, the first dune, and like I'm already like, I already read like dune god, emperor, dune right. So it's like I'm already past that mentally. Like when people talk about doing like arrakis, like you know, fucking the harkin, the Harkin, the Harkinens and shit, I'm like those bums, like mentally I'm thousands of years away from them. You're so fucking 1960s kind of thing, or the 1600s, you know, that's the way I kind of think of them. Oh, this week, oh, and then I've been I think I might have talked about last week the Fire Country that I'm completely caught up right now with season three and now I'm just watching it week-to-week basis now.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:And yeah, it shows fucking Firefighters, yeah, it's fucking gas and it's just like oh, I'm a firefighter, I'm a fourth country southern drawing thing. Yeah, but it's pretty cute, though I'm starting to get into that. The thing I just have the most trouble with is just keeping up with shows and stuff, especially right now, Like the Penguin. It's going to end off on Sunday, but I'm still not caught up on it, so I need a bit to watch that.
Speaker 1:The show's about to end already.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's already seven, eight episodes, I think. Dang yeah. So I'm a couple episodes behind on that Bad Boy, so I didn't get caught up with that one. But I think I'll do it on Sunday and just watch it, get caught up and watch the last episode.
Speaker 2:Yeah and it's a really good show. It's like it's nothing to sneeze at. Oh, let's see what else I got on my bad boy list here. Uh, do, do, do, do, do, do. Oh, I have. Uh, I read the. The comic issue just came out. The absolute superman shout out superman. Um, it's pretty cute. Uh, the way that is kind of like different from the uh, mainline, uh canon is, you know, we got the big bad house of L right, huge dick swinging, fucking scientists. They're fucking geniuses and stuff. Right now they're, you know, top of the class system right in this version. They're their family, like the Superman family and stuff. They're on the lower tier. They're on the lower tier, they're on the low. I forgot what it's called and like they have S on their chest for like shame, yeah.
Speaker 2:yeah, it's not a house thing, it's just more of a thing that they have. It's just to mark what they are Like the top people they have a son Because they're like fucking from the son or whatever, and there's like a middle management here and then it's them at the very bottom and they're like the working class whatever, like just just broke, you know. And then, uh, that's how it's different partly. And then also the kawau is already kind of like I don't know. They don't say exactly how old he is whenever he goes to earth, but I'm assuming he's like a teenager by the time he goes to earth, you know. So he didn't grow up there and stuff, so he grew up with his family and his family's like farmers and always dad's like a engineer or some shit or like a low-tier engineer in the mines kind of thing.
Speaker 2:like he's like um safety guy, I guess you would say and yeah, it's just, it's pretty cool and the design of him is pretty tight and he's on earth now and, yeah, I think he's just kind of they haven't gone too much into it. It's pretty tight though, and I'm really liking these, um, this absolute universe, because, uh, already read, already read, wonder woman, that was really tight. And then we had had the Batman. The Batman issue number two comes out like next week, I think, and I'm excited for that. You know fucking Batman with the axe on his chest, huge battle axe for no reason. And you have Wonder Woman, who's like, she's like a witch and stuff too now and she's the princess of hell.
Speaker 1:So Superman's not as strong as regular Superman.
Speaker 2:They haven't gotten into that yet. There's nothing there to say that or not, but it's more of their origins. That's what they're changing. I think in theory it should be the same, but it's just origins right now and it's I don't know. It's pretty tight. And then coming up, we're gonna have a green lantern one and then I think that one's gonna be original character, I think, and then, um, there's gonna be a flash one that's gonna be uh, wally west, if I remember correctly, and let's see how this goes, because eventually this is gonna tie into the regular line, because something like that, because there's absolute power, and then absolute power led into this one, I think I can't remember exactly, but yeah, it's pretty tight.
Speaker 2:So, is there anything coming up that you're excited for?
Speaker 1:Off the top of my head? Not really, but one thing not really show related or movies related. So Not really. But one thing Not really show related or movies related. So recently Tekken made like a collab with Nike and they got like those Tekken foam posits. Now, did you get them, anna? Got them for me. She ordered them for me, so I'm like super hyped about it and you know I'm'm definitely gonna be wearing those like maybe all the time probably yeah you wear them tournaments and shit exactly you have to wear them in tournaments.
Speaker 2:Yeah, exactly I came in here. I came here to play. I'm like I can't do business. That's not game. This ain't game to me exactly pull up with the foams yeah, and I've never worn a shoe like that.
Speaker 1:So, it'd be interesting to you start pooping and shit for no reason. Yeah, for real.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:I don't know. I hear they're comfortable, but I think it's kind of weird that the laces go all the way down to like the toe box or whatever.
Speaker 2:Mm-hmm Phones are for hooping right, are they yeah?
Speaker 1:yeah, I don't know. I don't know anything about shoes.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you have to get the phone positive. Get the track suit, the matching Tekken track suit. Yeah, exactly, yeah, yeah, get a ball that's just Tekken. That's like it turns into a ball. No, a ball that turns into a ball, I meant a ball that turns into a controller.
Speaker 1:That's what I meant to say.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'm pretty hyped for those. Oh, I got this. Oh, the movie coming out this week is going to be Heretics.
Speaker 1:Oh, yeah, yeah, the one where it's like the guy like the two girls going to the house yeah, those Mormons. And he's like starts reading off the Bible yeah, but it's not even his house.
Speaker 2:I think it is his house. He just it's a trap house Not like a drug house it's just a house that has. I'm tired of seeing that ad, though, or that that preview, because I see it all.
Speaker 2:Yeah, you see it a lot yeah, like every time I go, I'm just like I kind of shut my brain off one because I just hate. It's like the same thing with speak no evil. But speak no Evil just did the whole plot in the trailer though you know this one is so left up in the air. What's happening? I'm excited for it, but it's just like I'm not. It's like the same thing with Speak no Evil. It's just I'm torn away from it because it's. I've seen so much now.
Speaker 1:You're not excited for Red One.
Speaker 2:Hell. No, are you excited for Hot Santa, hot Santa? Snowman, that's your movie.
Speaker 1:You're excited for that one. Nah, nah, Nah. Red One we got the Santa Avengers and the Christmas Avengers in that one. Fuck, no.
Speaker 2:It's just dumb as hell. The Rock, yeah, chris, chris Evans, chris Evans, still candy for my baby. Are you excited for it? Are you going to watch it? I'll probably watch it Really.
Speaker 1:I'll probably watch it why?
Speaker 2:Because what the fuck? It's only coming out of theaters, right? Yeah. That's gay. Why are you going to watch it?
Speaker 1:I'm not going to watch Hot Santa Claus. That's you, that's you, that's you, bro.
Speaker 2:Yeah, it's on Netflix and you love Netflix and I bet you're going to watch it. You're going to watch it. I'm definitely not going to watch that. No, no, You're just going to wake up and it'll be the end credits. No, what did I do?
Speaker 1:You're going to stay up until when they refresh Netflix to watch it? Fuck, no.
Speaker 2:I already reviewed it and shit, I got my Letterboxd review. Five stars Hell. No, five stars Hell. Nah, fuck that. Oh, there was also speaking of Letterboxd. There was a. I was just upset about it. Well, I'm not upset about it. There was a Gladiator 2 showing tomorrow, but then, like you have to sign up to it to get in a raffle to get tickets, that movie.
Speaker 1:I feel like that movie is not even going to be good.
Speaker 2:Really that movie. I feel like that movie's not even gonna be good. Really, I think so. I think it'll be amazing, I think it's gonna be a masterpiece?
Speaker 1:I don't think so. Why not? I don't know. I just don't get the sense. Really I think it'll be good. I just don't think it's gonna be like fucking, because I feel like this level, uh, I think it will. I think it's gonna be one of those, um, really cinematic movies yeah larger than that this means it's going to be like amazing larger than life movies.
Speaker 2:That's how I kind of think of him big. It's not going to be doing, brother. Nothing's ever going to be done. Nothing's going to be doing. I don't expect it to be. I'll be insulted if it was. No, I'm kidding like super members of batman that one wasn't.
Speaker 1:I'll be, insulted if it was. No, I'm kidding, like Superman vs Batman that one wasn't really like good, but cinematic-wise it was beautiful.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I think this one is going to be cinematic and then it's going to be like larger than life, big entertaining. Are you not entertained? True, the whole boat scene looks crazy yeah exactly, and I feel like that's gonna make it huge.
Speaker 1:You know Like they literally put Freaking water in that bitch.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's crazy.
Speaker 1:They put a kiddie pool in there For real. In an arena. It's crazy. What'd you?
Speaker 2:think of the first Gladiator.
Speaker 1:Good, very good movie.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I'm not crazy about like other people, I'm not crazy about anything.
Speaker 2:I'm crazy, crazy about like other people, I'm not crazy about anything. I don't know. I'm crazy about Dune. Oh, did you see what Quentin Tarantino was saying about Dune? What he said about Dune and Shogun? He was like I already seen the original. He said I'm talking about the David Lynch one. He was like I don't need to, but Dune is a whole different ballgame. And he said the same thing about Shogun. Right, because he was like I've already seen it in 13 hours. I was like I don't need to see this new thing. And then I think he just did poor examples because these new renditions are crazy.
Speaker 2:I say because they're not remakes. They're from the same source material and I feel like that's a lot different from remaking the same movie.
Speaker 1:It's more like a revamp if you will.
Speaker 2:I wouldn't say it's a re-anything, it's just a different interpretation of a thing.
Speaker 1:That's completely different.
Speaker 2:You would say yeah, because it's like they're based off the same books. I think the reason why he said those two, because a lot of people couldn't ask. I was like, oh, have you seen this, have you seen that? And then with those two things it's just like they're not the same thing and there's it's not. Like they looked at dune, the first original recipe dune, and they were like, let's make this movie better. They just went to the book, you know, and just were things based off the book, you know the actors really watch that many movies.
Speaker 1:I feel like they get tired just being on set so much.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I guess it just depends, because it's like a lot of directors like him. He's well, he's an old fart as well and I think he's that type. That's just like you know. I love this era of movies and that's what he kind of makes you know, Because I think that's too it what he kind of makes you know, because I think that's too. It was just like a lot of people get locked in the error kind of thing.
Speaker 2:And then he likes those older movies that he, he grew up on, you know, because you know, like once upon a time in hollywood it's supposed to be like the golden age of hollywood and stuff like that it was a certain error and then that's the error I think he's really into, you know.
Speaker 2:So he's kind of locked into that kind of time, you know, and you don't like if you watch his movies now like cross the board, all his movies they got that Western kind of like raw feel and stuff, you know, and I think that's the kind of movies that he liked from his childhood or something like that.
Speaker 1:Me.
Speaker 2:I like Doom, denis Vanille and then, but he did see the yonker too, though, and he was just like he loved it. Of course he did. I was just like whatever, uh, with that one, I was just like I don't get that one. But he said todd phillips is the joker, and he did, he made the movie as if he's the joker. I'm just like what the fuck are you talking about?
Speaker 2:I see he's kind of his point, because he was saying like he did a big fuck you to studios and to everyone and their expectations, but I don't think it's a valid fuck you, you know, uh, yeah, it's just like. It's like like let's say, you know, like let's say, if a fucking, a team is doing really well, right, and then everyone's like, yeah, they're excited for the next game. You know like fuck, yeah, we're gonna like go, we're gonna like it's gonna be a good game, blah, blah, xyz, right, like hell, yeah, and the team just fucking blows it right and they're like, yeah, fuck you for having expectations on us. It's your fault for believing in us. Fuck you, you, john, no, I'm kidding, but yeah, yeah, quentin Tarantino, but he's also like 60, so it's just like I don't know if he's like I don't know, just old yeah, yeah, you're old 36.
Speaker 1:Jesus Christ. At least I'm not 46 like you, Nah Jesus.
Speaker 2:Christ, old, fuck. Yeah, yeah, yeah, my balls, where my balls at Hell? No, oh yeah, they're tucked in, tucked in. You know, I never understood. Whenever guys used to say it's like, yeah, I accidentally sat on my balls, I was like how the fuck do you sit on your balls? Do you sit on your balls before? Yes, how do you sit on your balls, man?
Speaker 2:They're just flowing, bro, it just happens I'm sorry shit, I'm sorry, my balls are aerodynamic Shit. It sounds like you got some loose skin down there. That's what it sounds like to me. Right, what are you looking at my balls for? Don't look at my balls, you can't see them. They're small. Yeah, let me go through my little list of there's two quick news things. Okay, we got the Orphan 3. It's in early developments right now. I'm hoping they just use the same girl and then she's like she just gets older and older and they just keep on making her the orphan.
Speaker 2:That would be funny. I think that would be hilarious. I really liked the last one because it was just so funny, because it's a grown woman pretending to be a girl. It was hilarious. Oh, and the Black Film is filming right now and then the next one will coming out october 17th 2025. And the black phone one was okay, it was good it was. I was expecting a little bit more out of it, so maybe with this one oh, this one will knock it out the park, you know, so to speak. Um, which one would you say you're more excited for? Orphan 3 or Black Phone 2? Orphan 3? Really? Oh, yeah, we covered that movie right when she LOLs, lols.
Speaker 1:How did that last one end? She got away again. Right, yeah, it was a prequel. Oh, yeah, it was a prequel. Yeah, it was a prequel To. And then she didn't die in that one.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah. I thought it was just really funny how she was just a 25-year-old pretending to be a kid.
Speaker 1:I like what they did with the scenes, though when her face was turned away, it was always just the other actor, the little actress.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I really liked it and it was just funny because I love how they committed to it. That's a big thing, yeah, okay, let me go through my list of things I have seen in the month of October. You ready for this? Okay, yonkers 2, wild Robot rewatched it. Substance rewatched it. Exhibiting Forgiveness, it was an AMC. Unseen Movies, saw it Early Episodes Penguin 2, 3, and 4, saturday Night, the Apprentice. Terrifier 3, agatha All Along the Full Season. Smile 2, your Monster, we Live in Time. Absolute Batman, issue 1, death in the Family. Comic Book Under the Hood Comic Fire Country comic fire country. Seasons one through three, or, I'm sorry, season one and two. Venom last dance, long legs rewatch. Damn, I've been rewatching a lot of things. Let's start a cult, a stavros original and yeah, that was my month of october. What do you think on? Was this good enough for you? Pretty?
Speaker 2:solid month, I would say yeah, yeah, yeah, I forgot about some of those classics like um, uh was saturday night, that was a pretty key movie. Uh, there's this one scene where this guy, he trips over like a trashman, right like he, no, he just kind of trips on air kind of thing. He gets almost like oh yeah, sorry, I tripped on my penis hey, when that happens, yeah I was like bars, bars, bars, bars and right down, bad.
Speaker 2:I'm going to write that bad boy down. Okay, terrifier 3. Cold classic. I know Han's favorite You're a monster, where she sleeps with her imaginary friend. We Live in Time. I got a t-shirt from them so I went for that motherfucker to be sent out. I'm upset it still hasn't came. But then, um, upset it still hasn't came. But then, um, I've been reading a lot more comics recently, so that's been fun right now. You know, I read those two comics. I read nightwing as well. I finished up these this latest run of nightwing. It just wrapped up and, uh, yeah, it was pretty tight, it was pretty good. Um, what else is there? Do do do the apprentice. That was kind of funny. And then he won. He's president again. So, yeah, now that I care, I'm just happy that I don't have to see ads anymore about the election anymore.
Speaker 1:That's why I got so tired of seeing that, uh now you're gonna see just people being mad over the election everywhere else yeah, and I just seen people saying I was like, for real, this is who you voted for.
Speaker 2:I was like that. No, they're saying it's like, well, there was 20 000, 20 million votes that weren't counted for. Where did the votes go? What happened? They sold this election, and the other side is like get over it, get over it. You're dumb, you know, and I'm just like I'd rather see that, though, than seeing like, hey, you need to vote Because I was like, shut up, I don't vote.
Speaker 1:Did you vote? I registered, but I didn't really have the time to go, oh damn.
Speaker 2:You have to make time. This is your fucking civil duty to do. In a democracy, it only works whenever everyone votes. Except for me, though, because I'm never gonna vote.
Speaker 1:See, I don't really even know how that works, because most of the time what I see is that it goes by the size of your state, and then I mean I'm not trying to get political, but then it's the electoral colleges that make the votes.
Speaker 1:No, I mean, I don't think it's really bi-popular, unfortunately, but electoral college doesn't make any sense yeah, I don't get it either, because and it sucks because a lot of times that's only the case because the electoral college is a bunch of old people and we won't really see change until, like, the people around our generation, start to get into those offices and stuff and those old people start dying off. But then all these new drugs.
Speaker 2:These people will never die. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, like total college doesn't make any sense. And then it's just like the way I think of it too. I'm very anti-politics and stuff because I don't believe in any sides and stuff or whatever. But then it's just like okay, let's say I voted right. I take pride that I voted right. Regardless if I voted for Trump or Kamala, right, texas is still a red state.
Speaker 1:Just because of the electoral.
Speaker 2:Yeah. So it's like, regardless of however I vote, it's going to have the same outcome regardless, you know. So it's like me, as an individual does not matter. I do not matter, you know, and I don't, so that's why I just like talking about movies and shit.
Speaker 1:You know the more important things? Yeah, fucking dumb politics.
Speaker 2:I saw this funny meme where it was like Republican Party, Democratic Party, Mario Party.
Speaker 1:That was the part I could get behind. Yeah, then I mean it does suck, but unless they change the way it actually works, it won't change.
Speaker 2:I mean, I don't care for change, I just want to see the world burn as long as we still get movies.
Speaker 1:I agree, I want to see it burn too. Um I will say though um, it kind of sucks just how everything is so divided nowadays, like even towards the end of the election, it always just boils down to the two parties, and most of the time, those people aren't even like necessarily really with that party. Because I remember trump when he was first, those people aren't even like necessarily really with that party Because I remember Trump when he was first running. He wasn't even with the Republican Party. He just ended up. They just ended up claiming him or whatever.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I think he just kind of floated with them and I remember he also was like they were doing like the, you know the Republicans. They were all up there, you know, doing debate and shit. And then they asked him I was like well, if you don't get the republican nominee, would you run as independent? And he goes, yeah, maybe. And all the republicans were like hey, what the fuck you talking about? Hey, because it's like if he would have ran as an independent, that would split the votes, you know, of the republicans, so it'd be like a third there and third there, and then by default, the Democrats win. So then they're just like well, fuck, like, if we don't give him the nomination, then there's like, for sure, the Democrats are going to win.
Speaker 1:Yeah there you go and it kind of just sucks because, like, the whole country is divided and it's literally just a thing here, I feel like, because I mean everything, everything's divided race, color, creed, sexual orientation, gender, uh, religion, uh, your political viewings, just everything has to be divided and I think that's where everything messes up for all of us, like all the like, all of us people, you know. I mean, I feel like things are different, where we could look out for each other and be against the government, because the government, I feel like we give them too much power at this point and if we weren't so divided, we could come to decisions so where they would not be so powerful and where the people would have more power. But you know, everything is this and that red versus.
Speaker 2:I do believe, though it's just like um, you know how they're like saying like it's divided. I think that's something that, um, the media and stuff portrays and stuff. But like out here in the street, like out like real life thing, though I don't feel divided and shit you know, like it's not as like like social media or the media like news and stuff. They say it's like like a battleground and shit out there with a fucking fighting over the restrooms and shit right, but then like in real life, whenever going to stores or like being around co-workers or colleagues and other human beings and shit, it doesn't feel that way, like as the people and shit us. I don't think they portray it as if it's horrible between us, you know, and I don't believe that's true really.
Speaker 1:I hate that. We got political.
Speaker 2:Yeah, look at us. Anyway, it's what we pollute to.
Speaker 1:It's what we politicize. I mean what we pollisticize. I mean we could just go to your homeland, el Salvador. We could just live there. Safest place to live now.
Speaker 2:Yeah, just lock up everyone. Just lock everyone up. It works. And it's like who am I going to talk about a place where I don't live? Yeah, what's it going? Anyway, let's talk about some movies. Let me just go through a. Let me see what's coming up. Let's see what's coming up. Let's see what's cooking. Let's switch gears To happy, good vibes, you know.

Speaker 1:Things have been going yeah, things have been.
Speaker 2:Yeah, we crossed a lot of borders. We talked about that. We talked about fucking politics and shit. God. Do you remember whenever I used to endorse? Well, I didn't endorse him, but I talked a lot about Robert F Kennedy Jr. Yeah.
Speaker 1:And he got cooked.
Speaker 2:Yeah, well, now he's going to be working for Trump, he's going to run health. Yeah, oh great. Yeah, the guy who doesn't like vaccines and shit guy who doesn't like vaccines and shit. No, but it's funny. Well, I mean like he talks about like vaccines need to be safer, like they're not as safe as they try to promote them to be, and shit. I think I don't know. It's funny because it's like you know people are like no, the facts, you gotta believe in vaccinations and shit. But then it's like you're trusting the government and government was big pharma and just like you trust big pharma, you know who am I, fucking Zachary Levi. We don't know anything.
