another episode
here we are
another episode
we haven't left
just the Joker review
yes please go listen
to our Joker episode
and get annoyed at us
for the things we say
he said nothing wrong in the episode
not at all
I just hope
listeners can't hear the kids
like playing and stuff like that
yeah
because there's a lot of kids
outside my place
running around
and I wrote it to the council
but there's so many of them
like you haven't even seen them all
Like, sometimes I go out to my car.
I've seen all of them.
Sometimes I go to my car as like 12 kids
just running around the place.
Just hanging around your car.
Hey, old man.
Take us for a ride.
And like I start the car and it won't even like move sometimes.
Like I have to like beat my horn and like, you know.
Maybe nudge them with the bumper a little bit.
Yeah, it won't do anything, but.
Yeah, yeah.
And like there's so many of them around.
It's kind of like, um, I was thinking,
you know they have like those safaris for rich people.
Yeah.
Where like you can shoot an animal,
but like the animal's kind of like,
like it's in a pen so it's really easy to shoot it and it's sedated and stuff yeah yeah it's kind of like
it'd be so easy just to get one of those kids like because they're just all over place
and they wouldn't expect someone who lives in the community like no i guess they wouldn't
unless you record a podcast where you detail plans and they're all dressed up like
Halloween stuff now oh right yeah do you get a lot of fireworks around here actually I'm not sure
I've been around here on the Halloween okay yeah oh wait could I
ask you actually before we go
anywhere
do you remember a couple of weeks ago
or the last time we recorded and you told me
about your dog passing? Yeah
is it still in your hallway? I haven't
looked. Oh okay. I haven't been down to the house.
Haven't been back? Yeah, yeah. Okay. For
fear of the stench of death. I have to
wait until it's just a skeleton.
Oh, okay. No, no, there's
everything, no dead dogs up here. Okay, that's
nice. Yeah, yeah, I like what you're done at the place.
I mean, like, this house is shit.
ended up in right now
but there's no dead dog
so that's what you pay for
every cloud
and all that
so I talked for today's
episode
yeah
we could talk about a film
and I would like
describe the film to you
because we did Rambo
and stuff like that
and that was kind of fun
yeah yeah
so it's how we could do another one
and um
so what is this movie
see this film
wasn't as interesting
or as entertaining
as Rambo
because I looked up like
it's meant to be a shit film
right so I watched it
but wasn't like
the really entertaining
type of shit
Yeah, it was just badly made
And a tedious
What was it actually?
It's called Life itself
Life itself
Yeah, it's by a first time director
Who created the show
This Is Us
I already don't like it
Okay, if you're heard
This Is Us is a drama
It's all about people
Yeah, and so like
This is our lines
I've got cancer
I got cancer
I was raped
You know that kind of stuff
Yeah, yeah
The laugh track is probably
In protest I think
But anyway, yeah
Yeah
It's kind of like a modern day friend
Equal comedic value
Yeah
So it's his first film
And there's a huge bidding war time
Who wanted it
And Amazon Studios finally God
And I think Day Tots could be
The next like Manchester
What you see
Okay
Like a real hard-hitting drama
Yeah next Oscar tender
Definitely
Right right
So
I'm going to tell you
The start of this film
And the star of his mad
It's kind of bad
Because the first few minutes
Are very entertaining
And after that
Notting
It's such a difference
so the film is broken up in chapters
and the film
this life itself now released
about two years ago
the title of the first chapter
is called
the hero narrated by Samuel L. Jackson
that's the name of the chapter
oh right okay so it starts off
it's actually narrated by Samuel L Jackson
okay and he's going like welcome to the film
okay let's get the lights on let's start
let's see your main character
and they show this guy
and already you're like
just a little bit outside the box
what's going here, okay?
Samuel Jackson's breaking the four wall already.
I haven't even, like, started the film basically.
Never break the fourth wall.
It's there for a reason.
Okay, and he's saying, like,
this is our main character, okay?
And he's gay.
He's super gay.
He's Billy on the street level gay.
That's what they say, okay?
Wait, no.
They do, they say Billy on the street.
Are you serious? Wow.
Yeah, yeah.
Like, he's so gay,
but he's not one of those gays
where it does not define me,
that kind of thing, okay?
And he's our character.
And then he says, and now he's going to start talking.
And then the gay guy is talking about, like, yeah, I don't know what to do.
I don't know if I should choose him or what should I do.
Like, I don't know if I've fating this guy and Samuel Jackson, like, yeah, preach, brother, preach.
You know, I can relate.
I'm not gay, but I can relate.
I do, Tam.
Okay.
And it turns out the gay guy is talking to his therapist, but he's talking about fantasy football.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
So he's like, okay.
And it just pisses off Samuel Jackson.
Okay.
Yeah, he's like, what?
I thought you were gay.
Ah, please.
Okay.
So he goes, let's focus on the therapist.
Yeah, let's see that.
Ooh, I like what I see.
Look at this white girl.
Okay, so they focus.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
He's really, like, sexualizing the therapist.
It's like, ooh, look at that.
Oh, I like, yeah.
Oh, I like what I'm seeing.
So he's the therapist.
And then he's like, now this is the hero of our story.
So she's walking a lot.
now she's leaving the office she's walking along she bumps into Oscar Isaac okay okay
who plays the therapist is a some unknown woman okay well that I didn't know I think
she's a very talented actress okay okay so she's walking along she bumps into
Oscar Isaac I'm like oh hi hi and she's walking across the street Oscar Isaac's like big
fan she turns around to say something she's hit by a bus oh okay everyone's screaming
okay and also and Samuel Jack's like oh my God what's going he runs onto the
screen.
Sennel Jackson does?
As himself?
As himself, yeah.
It turns out they've been filming
and this is an accident.
Oh, wow.
And Samuel Jackson's like,
oh, I'm out of here
and runs away.
Okay.
The tone of this
is very hard to gauge.
Is it like comedy?
That's what you don't know
at the start.
What's going on?
Then Oscar Isaac, all right?
He's looking at this
dead woman on the street.
He's like, this is crazy.
And he looks over at the bus.
All right.
And there's a little
child in the bus
little Mexican child
I'm not I know it's
Mexicans we find out later on
okay
more about it
and you're like
what is going on here
okay
next scene
that was all the screenplay
the Oscar Isaac is writing
oh okay
so we cut to him
in his office
writing on a
no he's in Starbucks
oh okay
he's in Starbucks
but he's taking pills
he's drinking
he doesn't look too good
he's got a scraggly beard
okay
yeah and even like
you know
like yeah they're like
your coffee's ready
so he's like yeah okay
and he just starts
pouring some vodka
into it like
make a little
bit this
you know
and he's like
singing
Bob Dylan's
song's real loud
and he's like
he stumbled around
the place
so he's off his face
basically
yeah
yeah
they're like
please leave
sir
it's like
yeah
whatever
I was a
traveling man
you know
it's like
and Chunky
and McDonald's
working on
a screenplay
all right
there's the star
yeah
I've got me
three act
structure
here
yeah
fucking sound
the hero's
journey
eh
you know
Joseph
of Campbell, yeah, fucking
whopper, boys, eh.
Okay, so at this stage, you're like,
okay, so he's a screenwriter.
That was all just to set up, okay, a little bit
to start. They had Samuel Jackson
for like a day to use them, okay?
Okay, now I know what's going on.
We then cut to the past
where Oscar Isaac has a wife
played by Olivia Munn.
Oh, shit. And she's pregnant.
Right. And she's going on about, like,
oh, I love Bob Dylan, and he's like, I hate Bob Dylan.
So you're already, like, it's a bit of a thing
Hey, he, in the future, he's singing about Delph Dylan.
And where's the wife?
Hmm, what's going on?
Question mark.
And they're a really cutie couple, like really cutie.
He's got a dog called fuckface.
Okay, dog called fuckface.
I don't like that.
No, I don't like that either.
There's something about, like, I know couples like that, they call their dog, like, hate cuntballs.
Not, that's, you know, yeah, but like, um, what was that?
I'm trying to think, like, there's actually some couple I know that had a dog was like something like shit, shit stain or something.
it was something like
shite
it was like shite
it was like shite
or something like
yeah
yeah
yeah
so the dog's called
fuck face
and they're like
hey
fuck face
yeah
I'm gonna fuck your face
yeah
yeah
my dog
my dog's
lucky one
this is a
director's code
of 101
Dalmatians
I'm gonna
fuck everyone
he is
oh
korella is
cruel
okay
So they're a cutie couple
And they're in bed together, okay
And she's like, oh, I love Bob Dylan
He's like, yeah, he sounds like got cock in his mouth
Okay
And that's supposed to be a funny scene
Right, right
Then she stands up, turns out she's pregnant
Yeah
Okay
And, uh, we're like,
Okay, so things are going out
Well from next scene
It's back in the future now
He's talking to his therapist
All right
And the therapist is a woman that got hit
Oh, okay
Oh, right
So he's like, I've been trying to write
This screenplay, you're in it actually
oh okay
you're in it now
you might not like it
and he's like
he's been real crass with
therapist it's like yeah
it's been two months
since my wife left
I tried jerking off
and I was thinking of her
didn't work
I tried jerking off thinking
to you didn't work either
no offense
Oscar Isaac now
he's a likable guy
he's really pushing
in this film
yeah okay
yeah yeah
so they keep saying
stuff like
oh it's been a while
since your wife left
oh
I think of
go it down now and they do like
they do keep saying like
it's been two months since your wife
left
this is like what they had to say around
OJ every time they're hanging
it's been oh how long has it been since she
oh yeah
I'm just going to cut it now
so we're coming back and forth between
like happy Oscar Isaac and sad Oscar Isaac
painting a real picture of his life
like there's a bit where like they go to meet
Oscar Isaac's parents okay
and it's played by Mandy Pataken
is actually the father
who
Mandy Pataken he was in Princess Bride
and home and stuff like that
I've never seen Princess Bride or Homer
He's a good actor okay
Okay
So the Olivia Munn is pregnant
They meet the cup
They meet the Oscar Isaac's parents
And the parents are kind of like
A little bit embarrassing
Like the mother even says like
Oh I've always dreamed my son
Would bring home a woman
Who has dead parents
Because her parents are dead
So I don't have to share the grandkids
And they play it off like
Jesus.
Yeah,
the phial's like,
what is she
on the spectrum or something?
Mom, you can't say that.
I'm glad they're dead!
I can say what I want.
PC is killing comedy.
Okay, and they also do another
flashback of them meeting in college.
Okay.
Pulp fiction party.
Oh.
Yeah, so they're dressed like
Pulp fiction characters.
Okay.
Which really has a vibe of like film school.
Yeah, sure.
I'm going to do a Pulpiction reference
so they know what film buff I am.
Yeah.
They'd be like, whoa, you new reference
Pul fiction you must know a lot about cinema gnarly yeah yeah so it's like you think like
hey they're all going well okay uh what could go wrong um guess what you know when they kept
saying she left yeah she didn't leave what happened they're walking home from the parents
yeah she got hit by a bus oh no so now you see why in the screenplay it's uh there's a bus accident as
well. Yeah, I'm actually annoyed by that
because that's rather derivative, Oscar Isaac,
yes. I mean, I know they say
right what you know, but for God's sake, try and
invent something, dear boy. Bus crash,
really? Really? What about helicopter
accidents? Come on, man.
You need to get the butts in the seats,
bro. Helicopter crash into
monster truck. That's what he wants to.
And some big titted ladies
with a machine gun. Okay, so
his wife got hit by a bus. And now
the tariff's like, come on, let's really talk about your
wife. He was like, you want to talk about my wife?
I'll tell you about my wife.
And I don't know he does like,
I honestly go out square
as a 10 minute monologue
about his wife's history.
Really?
Now, they kind of spice it up
by having him appear in flashbacks.
Okay.
The other thing they do sometimes
like the flashbacks happen
and the thing the therapist
standing at the corner
going like, this is it.
Yeah, kind of like fucking Muppets Christmas Carol.
Yeah, no.
Exactly like that.
I'm going to say the wife's backstory now
and you take them up with Christmas Carol.
Okay.
Turns out they even go into
like how her parents met.
Okay.
So her parents met, they're both primary school teachers,
or whatever the equivalent is in America,
and they meet, like,
and they do a kind of cutey bit where, like,
the father talks, and, like, she's, like, eating a sandwich.
She goes, oh, and she dropped a little bit of sandwich over her mouth.
He goes, you fucking pig.
Sorry.
Make up first.
And he gets, like, what is it, some watermelon and puts it in for him?
There you go.
Chow to head, yeah.
So they fall in love.
They're both primary school teachers.
They have Olivia Munza baby.
Yeah.
Everyone's going well.
Then they die in a car crash.
Jesus Christ.
Nobody can drive in this fucking movie.
And they do a little thing Ross Garzicks go like the worst part.
She was stuck in that car for an hour and her father been decapitated.
Yeah, that's right.
She there, he was there for a whole hour looking at her dad's decapitated corpse.
Really adds a little something to your coffee, doesn't there?
Something like that, like really makes you tink it eat in your cereal, doesn't it?
Yeah.
You think about that next time you're having your Cheerios.
You bitch.
see it's a therapist like yeah
you never heard anything as fucked up as this have you
move over Joker
okay
so then we find out she's adopted
by Uncle Joel
oh here we go
of course
the way they film Uncle Joe we never see his head
to show his mean old body
okay yeah yeah and they said
Is he wearing a wife beat her?
No
no no
so Uncle Joe
who molested her until
until at the age of 15
she borrowed a gun off a gangbanger
and shot Uncle Joe in the leg
This is the most melodic
piece of shit I've ever heard of them
They literally say
At the age 15 she borrowed a gun off a gangbanger
They never go into like
Who was the gangbanger
Would she meet the gangbanger
What was her history with the gangbanger?
Why was there a gangbanger?
None of that like it's just like
Did they show her like
Shooting Uncle Joe in the leg
And like get the fuck out of the house
and Oscar is like
to that purpose
Pretty badass
Yeah
Yeah
Now you can see
Why I want her
To be a mother
My child
Because she's fucking cool
And she smokes
Marboretts
Yeah
Yeah
So this is all
In the big long
Monologue
Flashback thing
The only thing I liked
About the flashback
bit
There's one scene
Where
they show like
A happy moment
At them playing in the snow
Okay
And in the background
All the other characters
Are also his wife
They're also
Olivia
oh okay and I was like
oh that's a nice little thing here
of the only thing's for her
and it didn't like focus on it too much
yeah it's like that's almost a little
it's like that's seeded
being John Malkovich ever see there
exactly that's what I take it back actually
they're just copying B and John Malkovich
they are aren't they? This film's even more shit
I just ruined the one thing you liked about it
then we cut back to them in college again
and now they're in college but it's
they're literally to have Oscar
like longer hair
okay they don't look like college students
right all right and it turns out she's
discover what our thesis is. So, like,
Olivia Munn's working on art thesis.
How to shoot your molesting uncle
with a gangbangers gun
after your dad was decapitated.
And it's somehow related to feminist studies.
Make sure you use the Harvard reference
and system. Sorry, what's her thesis?
Her thesis would be unreliable narrators.
Oh!
And she's got, she's this whole thing about,
you know what, the real,
you know, the real, the real,
the real, unreliable narrator
is life itself. Oh!
dropping some knowledge that's name of the film is yes it is wow that's genius that is
genius I take it all back yeah so we've okay we find out she's dead and we're like
okay and then another big twist is she was pregnant when she got hit by the bus okay okay
the baby survived don't really go into how that's yeah it doesn't make sense don't
go how and they're like your child your daughter's still alive Oscar Isaac you haven't seen
her in two months
you have to go see her
why has she been in hospital
no he's been in the looney bin you find out
that's what they say I don't say
luny bin I say
mental shack
spastic brigade
yeah
sorry but anyway
so like you have to go see your door and it's like
no I'm going to go see my wife
and he pulls out a gun and shoots himself
oh my god where
where did this happen in the therapist office
how does he have a gun if he's been like
you know, under observation
or anything? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, that was a great
scene now. What the fuck. He pulls out,
shoots himself the therapist off, what's funny is, so
it's a big, p, wall covering in blood.
He falls the ground, and therapist goes, oh,
and just walks out. She doesn't run out. She just walks
out, as if, like, she's used to it.
Jesus, good.
Really, I'm not very good at this job,
am I? Not again.
Marco,
come on, yes, clean up.
Hold my calls.
Okay.
so yeah both parents are dead what what about this kid then does it ever chapter two
that was chapter one chapter two dylan dempsey now dylan's the daughter they named her
after bob dillon yeah that's cheesy by the way that was exactly what she was going to say right
for her hit by the bus she was like uh oh i know i'm going to call her daughter and he was like i know
what is. She's like, yeah, we're going to call her
dip, you know,
bwam, and then they welcome
baby Derek into the world.
So we get Dylan, okay?
Yeah. Just a little girl.
And we kind of go to her life. She's been raised
by Oscar Isaac's parents now.
Okay. And, um,
I don't know, this whole bit here was kind of boring,
so I didn't make too many notes. Like, there's a lot
like cutesy stuff. Like, the narrators
is a different woman now, by the way.
It's a new narrator. Okay. Not Samuel Jackson.
Well, Samuel Jackson started narrating
through that whole
first segment
no
he only narrow
to start
and then when
the therapist
kept by the bus
he was like
I'm out
and he ran away
and that was it
so it's narrated
by a mystery
woman
we don't know
who this
new woman is
okay
right right
it's not
Dylan Dempsey
anyway
Dylan Dempsey
um
she's had a hard life
you know
of course
murdered killed by bus
dad
shot himself
yeah
yeah
um
and do a lot
cutty stuff
or like
she talked
to her granddad
and the narrator
go like
what she wanted to say
was this
and it's like
you know
I am
I'm so
troubled by what's happening I wonder will this affect my whole life you know will ever be able to
recover from my traumatic childhood but instead she's like I'm scared you know you know and
it's like keep doing that kind of thing of like what she wants to express and what as a child she
can't express you know yeah yeah yeah so you already hate this kid and then they immediately
cut to her and like she's 18 she's sexy oh she's wearing tights and she's like in a punk band
all right oh right of course and uh she's doing god she was like a punk version
of a Bob Dylan song
which is
I must have been
the liberty shit
on purpose
because it's so bad
what song
I don't even know
it was just like
yeah
it was just like real loud guitars
and you're like
oh what's going on here
right right
and then she
immediately after the gig
she just gets in a fight
with someone
she glasses someone
like she's like
she's just making out with a guy
and some girls are taking a picture
and goes hey fuck you bitch
and punches the girl
right in the face
like she's like out of control
right okay yeah
and then it's just it's
snowing, she's wandering on the streets
and she sits on the park bench in the same street where a mother
got hit by the bus like 20 years earlier.
Okay, right. And then she has like
a flashback
to the mother getting hit even though she
wasn't there. Well, technically she
was there. Oh, you're right.
Well, listen to this though, she's a flashback.
When the flashback she sees the Mexican kid in the bus.
Okay.
Wow.
I'm just like, how would that?
She wouldn't remember that, would she?
you wouldn't remember that. I thought you were like going to reveal something. No, no, no. Well, actually
I'm going to kick. Okay. So the narrator kicks in again and goes, that kid's name, the little
Mexican kid in the bus was named Gonzales. Okay. I forget what his first name is. Chapter 3,
the Gonzalez family. Ah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So now we're outside of America now. And what, wait,
does it end with just her on the bus? Her on the bench. On the bench. On the bench, looking at the
spot where the flashback. Okay, right, right. And looking sad.
And then, you know, we're like,
That's the problem with millennials.
Go, bitch in the morning.
Pull yourself up by your bootstraps and get to work.
If it's not climate change, it's your mother getting hit by a bus.
So, so far in this, what are you thinking?
I think it sounds really melodramatic and stupid as fuck.
It is, okay.
Well, at least you're kind of like you're following the pattern of like,
okay, it's Oscar eyes.
fucking this and this and now he's dead
I guess we're with the daughter now
I guess this is the film now
and like okay we're in Mexico now
what the fuck
you're like oh really my first thought
I was like I have to learn more character names
I just want this film be over
and like it's like it's start
it keeps rebooting itself
yeah you have to like
fan interest all over again
now another thing about this next
Gonzales part
is the I watch this online
and the stream I watch it
not have subtitles
oh my god
and this is all a Mexican
are you serious
yeah that's hilarious
so I just kind of watched it
and like made up my own minds
I think
everything's going well
like there's people crying
he's like they must be very happy
he's beaten his wife
oh what a loving relationship
yeah
look all you're reading
and like I think there's some subplot
with like I think there's like
the mothers
like it's like a family
it's like a father mother kid
and I think some other guy
who's like they're having an affair
or something like that
but I don't think that really
is part of the plot
All you need to know is
at some stage
like let's go to America
and then they're an American
and I'm like
oh okay
I kind of like
know what's going to happen now
okay
so it's their first time
in the big city
so I need to hop in a bus
all right
and this little kid
I wish I could have actually
remember his name
I wrote it down somewhere
oh it doesn't matter
like Gonzal
which is a little kid
okay
he's on the bus
and he's so happy
be on a bus he's waving hello to everyone you know yeah hello hello I'm on the bus
and one of the pastors a little magic trick where he pulls a kind out of his ear
which for some reason they all like go ooh where you know you know you should be like
he should be like shun for doing somebody that stay away from my kid yeah pretty much like an
actual New York like an American kid if you did that tip people like get the fuck away
my kid we're trying to bring whimsy to his life you fucking pito yeah yeah
Oh, Jesus.
Okay.
So, they're on the bus.
They're on the bus.
He's waving.
He's saying hello to the bus driver.
And the bus driver, just immediately turns, goes like, hello.
Hands off the wheel.
Gives them all.
Okay.
Welcome to a great country.
We're nothing traumatic will happen.
We're focused now, so we can see the bus getting closer to Olivia Munn.
But it's still a fair distance away.
So you're like, he could.
still stop, but he's still talking
this little kid, like, and then
bump, okay?
Oh, Jesus.
That's hilarious.
So, um, they hit the,
they hit the, uh, pregnant woman.
Yeah.
The bus stops, uh, little kids, like, shocked, okay?
And he looks out the window and he sees Oscar Isaac.
Okay.
Okay.
Cut to the little kids is like 19 now.
All right. Okay.
Yeah, okay.
Right.
And he, uh, they go into the whole thing.
Oh, I know where this is going.
don't yet we still got an hour left probably took me a lot longer to figure it out than it's shut off but yeah
yeah so they're gonna hook up well no there's another two pages okay all right all right all right so
we go into the whole thing like that didn't traumatize him though he managed to like okay because he's
mexican you know they're harsh you know they're tougher than americans they're seen some shit
they're tougher than white girls you know that's true well like you know american girls i say like

english uh everything okay okay model student he got ripped as well like you know shredded he's a big
hot beef kick and he even got himself a little american girlfriend called sherry now he even
the even says he didn't love her but it's fun to have her around oh but sherry ain't fun to be
around she's really annoying oh is she and just to prove how annoying sherry is the only scene we see her in
it starts off
for her going like
I got something
tell you
I'm pregnant
okay
and she's all like
we can do
every you want
I don't know
what it's like
over Mexico
if you like
abortion or not
I don't care
the way
I'll have the baby
I won't have the baby
I just want to decide
quickly
because I don't want
to start
getting head
and like
I don't want to start
having like a head
and legs
because then it's like
weird
to abort it
okay
that's like
okay
and like
you know
this Mexican guy
is like
or he's fucked up
up here
but he's like
trying to make a good guy
and then
she's like
Guess what?
April Fools!
Oh my God.
Yeah.
And she's like,
do you have that in Mexico?
And he's like,
no.
She's like,
oh,
well, how am I supposed to know?
Yeah.
Oh, God.
Yeah, yeah.
That's so weird.
Again,
the tone of this movie
just seems all over the place.
And there's a lot more here
that I'm going to skip over
because you kind of got the reveal.
Yeah,
they're going to hurt.
up
So the big thing then is
This is all in Mexican
Like I think the
The kid
He goes back to Mexico
And his mother's dying of cancer
He breaks up with Sherry by the way
Oh good
Yeah
Oh sherry was awful
She's only in it for like two minutes
I'm like please stop
She was like really
Really plain to like
Oh my god
Like that really like a guy
Yeah yeah
So his mother's got cancer in Mexico
And like you know
She dies
and I think he becomes friends
with the lover. I think the two dads
or show up or something. The only way, like, it was two guys.
Oh, she was having an affair?
Yeah, I think the two.
Turn out the other guy.
I'm not sure. It was all in Mexican.
Ah, okay.
Well, I seemed like it all worked out
for the best. The mother died and
the guys. They all high-fived
and pissed on her corpse.
We both fucked her.
Woo!
Hey, I was in there too.
Woo!
Yeah.
So, he goes
back to New York and he's like,
Oh, what big city?
I don't know what she's sitting.
I don't know what's sitting.
What does he do?
He goes for a little walk.
He sees the girl crying on the bench.
Oh, no.
And then he immediately goes up to her and is like, are you okay?
And she's like, oh.
And then it says, the narrator says, and they were together for the next 40 years.
Ugh.
We cut to the future again.
So we start off in the future.
No, we don't see them.
We see the daughter.
Okay.
Okay.
Of Dylan and the Mexican man.
Oh my God.
And she's written a book
called Life Itself.
And she's out of book signing, okay?
She's out like a book reading.
Okay.
I have a really full book reading.
Like it's like, you know,
it must be really popular books.
It's like the Harry Potter novels, you know?
Are people dressed as wizards?
No, they're dressed as characters
were in a book, so it's like,
one's dressed like a pregnant woman with a cover of blood.
And one's dressed like a man
with like a fake hole in his head.
somebody's dress is a bus driver
yeah yeah
and then
so it's the daughter wrote book
about her family
and she's like you know
I am
all that happened
this crazy life
this unpredictable life
that we live
made me who I am today
and in the end
isn't that like
the meaning of Christmas
or the fuck
you know
then she closes the book
alright
she closed the book
so many guns up
with a gun
shoots her
in the head. Kill
the phone meets.
Mark David Chapman. Or it turns out
like there's a bit I missed in the Mexican
part where it's like dealing with the cartel
or something like that. Or like Rambo
shows up. Because
she's the half blood.
Rambo, read my book.
I'm not going to read your book,
you done bitch.
Oh, God.
The old racist Rambo shows up
to finish the job.
Wait, so is that the end then?
There's one final scene. Okay.
where like we cut back to the
fucking Oscar Isaac
and his pregnant wife, Olivia one
in bed and he looks up and goes
hey
cut the black
that's horrible
and that's life itself that's horrible
I hate it I hate that film I've never
seen it I hate it you've seen that's all you need to know
that is just awful
oh my god how is that
piece of shit like that and like good actors
and stuff in it like
very good like Oscar Isaac is
He is a good actor.
Olivia Moulton's great as well.
Even the girl playing Dylan, the Doreen, she's very good.
The guy playing, I really wish it was called Mexican Guy.
I really wish I knew his name or the actor's name or anything like.
But I think the whole Mexican cast as well, they're all very good.
I tell you what, I watch that.
I watch those scenes in a different language.
Yeah, but you still got.
I could kind of tell by the emotions what was going on.
See, but that to me doesn't indicate a good film.
Really?
Oh, I'm not saying it's a good film.
Okay, well that's true.
I'm just trying to look at the bright side.
I'm just trying to see nice things with the Mexican cast.
Yeah, that's awful.
What inspired you?
Why did you want to watch this movie?
Because you heard it was so bad?
I heard it was kind of bad, but I wish I'd looked up a film that had more shit about it.
Yeah, yeah.
It's kind of bad but uninteresting like so.
There's large, because I covered the, like, we described down like half an hour.
There's large portions of them just like, like, you know the start of like, like, you know the start of like, like, like,
like we see them like being a happy couple
and then we cut back and forth
to him and the therapist
took a sad and the copy couple
that goes on for ages
and we realized pretty early on
okay something bad happened here
his wife's probably dead
but like we just
they keep going like
your wife left
and she's not coming back
she's gone
almost if she went to her place
that you can't go to
unless you shoot yourself
it was very disappointing
I kind of like
you'll even see you in my notes here
I'm very detailed
detail to start
Yeah
Like plot points
And by the end
It's like
Yeah
You're just bored of it
Yeah
Yeah
I wish I picked a better film
But like I watched it
And I was like
I'm not gonna
I go to waste
Because I had to watch it
So you might
You might as I get something
Out of it
And I wouldn't have talked
But the only fact
Like
The fact of Oscar
Isaac
Kills himself
Yeah
I was like
I suppose that's good enough
It's got one suicide
In it
It's like
I give this film
One Suicide
Oh, Jesus
So that was life itself
That was life itself
Look, that's a nice little, like
That's a nice little recap now
We may watch another film
That's worse
We should, yeah
You know, it's Halloween now
Or October, we should watch them
Like, real bad horror movies
I watched the Friday 13th remake
The one from 2009
Yeah, you watched them
I have, yeah, yeah
Yeah, geez, we do an episode about that
Yeah, yeah
No, I couldn't, this one
be much to talk about. No, not really.
See some nice tits and
I'll tell you, no suicides in that though.
No, no. No need.
No need.
Yeah, Jason does it for you like.
Say, no time to be depressed in Camp Crystal Lake, you know?
In Camp Crystal Lake where you're just
partying and smoking reefer and
doing the deed, man.
You know one thing, I'll end in a second. This is like a
weird little fantasy I have.
I've always taught, God, that'd be kind of cool.
And this happens with a few horror films.
A guy would be, like, having sex with a girl doggy style.
Yeah.
And then...
The killer comes up behind him and, like, stabs him.
Yeah.
I always thought that'd be a pretty cool way to go, like...
Doing somebody doggy style.
Yeah, yeah, because, like, you get, like...
You're like, you're like, you're like, a second of, like,
I'm dying, but my dick's still, like...
You're coming and dying.
Yeah, like, oh, no.
You're literally coming and going at the same time.
Hey, ba-da-ba, ba-da-ba.
And you're trying to tell that joke to Jason.
reducing it gets
and you always get to
seeing the girl like freaking out
which is kind of fun as well
yeah yeah
it's also good sometimes
I've seen in some horror films
like they'll kill him
but the girl doesn't realize straight away
yeah yeah
so she's still fucking
but it's almost
as soon as the knife goes in
it's like she's like
it almost got better
and so yeah yeah
it's like what
well that would be a very
empowering
female
horror thing
or like these two women
and their whole thing
is like they kill men
and the best part of sex
is when the man dies
like if he comes and dies
so you're banging a dude
and then you kill him
while you're banging him
yeah yeah
okay
that would be like
the greatest trill of all
I'm sure that has
wasn't that in basic instinct
where she should
I've never seen that film
we should do that one actually
we could do basic instinct
yeah yeah let's do basic instinct
but we only talk about one scene
I'm never even seen that scene
I know, I know the reference
She shows her vulva
Yeah, yeah
Yeah
Well, it's very
You just get a very quick glimpse
You know, but yeah
It's very, very sexy
You know, Wayne Knight is in that scene
Newman from Seinfeld
Oh really?
Hello, Newman
He's just like staring at her vagina
Basically watering at the mouse
Yeah, there's a few guys
who are in the room and they're all like
every time she does it they're like
very unsuttle like
really shifting her
look at it! Oh, it looked
at me! He's got a curse on it!
Yeah, pretty sure she shaved as well.
No hair. This is like the 80s
or the 90s. Well, we can watch that. Yeah, that sounds way better
than like myself. Yeah, it does.
Yeah, there's a lot of banging in that scene. I remember you
I saw it when I was like 14 but they only
watched it so I could see Sharon Stone
naked, basically. Is she naked in it?
Yeah, she gets her chintzai, yeah, yeah, she's
banging, there's quite a few sex scenes, like...
What's the plot?
Basically, Michael Douglas is a cop,
and there's this serial killer
going around killing people,
and he's pretty sure it's Sharon Stone,
but he can't prove it,
but he's, like, banging her the whole time,
and he's banging his own therapist.
He bangs a lot of women in it, basically.
Well, he's Michael Douglas.
Yeah, well, that's true.
It's a very sexual film
A lot of sex in it
In my head
This sounds kind of dumb
But I knew basic instinct
I just kind of assumed like
It was just that scene
For two hours
Just over and over
Kind of like a meme
It was the first meme
Feature Length meme
I never put much thought into it
It's like it's the film
Where she shows her vagina
And that's it
I never thought
I was like
You were saying it's serial killer plot
I was like oh wow
I don't think actually
It's a serial killer
I think they know
that she's killed someone
they're trying to prove it
and then she goes to kill again.
But even then I'm like
that sounds like a real movie
where I thought you could though
back in the days
just do a scene like
yeah like a gift
that was it yeah
open legs those legs
open legs those legs
word of mouth
and it was like
one of the biggest films ever
it's not a particularly good film
it's kind of shout
from what I remember
I just remember like
there's a lot of sex in it
and I was 14
and we didn't have the internet
so needs must
as they say
in my living room
late at night
alone. My family
actually listen to this podcast, you know?
My siblings do. But they are
freaks as well, so it's fine.
You're talking about
masturbating to, like,
well, who's the woman again?
Sharon Stone.
Sharon's the one of the most beautiful women of us.
Yeah, she's gorgeous.
Yeah, yeah. And I was
a hormonal teenage boy.
I said you were wanking off the way in nice.
Hello Newman!
Yeah.
And then I play the
the side film music.
Oh, yeah.
Okay, let's end it there.
All right.
So, yeah, the next episode is going to be
Basic Instinct.
I don't know.
We'll do an episode just
us bullshit and we'll do
a basic instinct episode.
Oh, no, that's what I meant.
We're gonna, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
We'll watch it first, obviously, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Or we just, like, make up our own story.
You half remember it
and I just make up my own things.
And she's got a dick.
Yeah, she does.
It's basic instant 2019.
We've made a few changes.
I'm going to end there.
Yeah, well, thanks for less to.
