It's Hard Day's Night without the irony. We saw Spice World, so you know what that means. Now it's time for How Did This Get Made? We're gonna have a good time, celebrate some failure, not just be a hater, but you know you're one that had to discreetly let's fall in the mediocrity of subpar art. Perhaps we'll find the answer to the question, how did this get made?

Hello, people of Earth, and welcome to How Did This Get Made? I am joined, as always, by my two co-hosts, Jason Manzoukas, how are you, Jason? Pretty good, what's happening? And June Diane Raphael, how are you, June? Good, how are you, Paul? Very good, we have a very special guest today. You know her from Parks and Rec, please welcome, Retta.

How are you? Yes, please welcome me. I'm good, how are you? Oh my God, so sultry. Happy Easter. Oh, so sultry. Easter podcast, guys. I like that.

Sexy Easter podcast. I'm making plans for my next career. Like, I could picture driving around L.A., listening to like a radio show that you're curating. Oh, I was thinking more sex phone calls. Oh, okay. You could do both. Okay, then I could picture something much different.

Then I'm picturing driving around LA listening and jerking off. Which is good. Which is terrible driving. Hands 10 and one. All right, so we saw Spice World, the movie. If you haven't seen it, here, take a listen to the trailer. When the world is in trouble,

when our future is in danger, we call upon one man. But when he's busy, he calls five girls. Columbia Pictures presents the Spice Girls. All right, we're coming. In their film debut, Victoria, Emma, Mel B, Jerry and Mel C, they're ready for action. Girl power, they're dressed to kill. Yeah, but can they act?

Blah, blah, blah, girl power, feminism, do you know what I mean? La la la la la la la la la, I want to take a guess. I'm old enough to be embarrassed. Yeah. What year of this movie? Yeah, I feel like this is 1993. 1993, is that right? Yeah, you want to take a guess? We'll see. In 95?

I feel like it's later. I was gonna say 96. 98. 98? What? Wait, yeah. Okay, Paul. Paul, you were not a kid.

Oh, I was not a child at all. You were not child at all. I was in I was into the Spice Girls I was like this is there cool, and then I don't know your 20s Because you just said I remember seeing this as a kid oh did I say yeah In my mind I was like well wait a there a chance that Paul was like a teenager at that point? No, I was already married to my first wife and had three kids before. I don't know why.

God rest her soul. She was a lovely woman. She and those kids did not survive. No, no, horrible boating accident. Terrible. And a very long trial for you. Very long, but you know what? At the end of the day, I feel like I was vindicated.

And you know, look, that's why boats are on, I couldn't see behind my car, and the boat was on a trailer. It's so funny you never talk about them. Yeah, well, you know, that's it. Ever. Ever. Ever. I would say for a movie, this movie is crazy, right?

I mean, and I know it's supposed to be crazy, but that they don't even try is the most upsetting part of it. I would like someone to take a guess, like to try to explain the plot, just like the plot of this movie. I looked at the time of the movie, but 20 minutes in I was like,

I don't understand what the goal is. But you know what, when I think about the title, Spice World, it's like, it is sort of a clue. Like, there's going to be nothing to hold onto here. Like, it's just like a world of ideas. It's like, there's no story. A lot of spice is not a lot of stew. There's not only no story, but like, the... any, truly, anything is possible.

Aliens come down and visit them. Ginger Spice kisses one of the aliens' face. not only no story, but like the, truly anything is possible. Aliens come down and visit them, Ginger Spice kisses one of the aliens on the lips. A man rises up out of a toilet, no problem. Yeah, I was really, I was, I didn't know what to expect. I thought there would be story.

Oh really? Well why's that? Because it was a film? Because it was a feature film? Oh see, that's interesting. that? Because it was a feature film? Because it was a feature film? Oh, see, that's interesting. Yes, because it was a feature. And I got so, so angry about the size of the interior of the bus. Oh my God. When it started, and then I was like, oh, I get why that bus is so big, because this

is fucking dumb. I was so angry. It's like a Barbie movie. And many of the, like you know like Barbie would like sell you like a dream, like it's like that, everything is on that level. Just it doesn't make sense, it's just colorful. It's like if we throw more color at you, you won't.

You see there is something, there was something to hold on to at one point which was. Pregnant Asian lady? Well, yes, because I thought okay, like their whole message is about girl power. Like, Spice Girls and girl power and like, you know, if you want to be my lover, you have got to get with my friends. And so there was a point where it was like, well, yeah, like, okay, they're going to choose

their friendship over their work and their fame. But it was so odd that they chose to... Why do they all have the same friend? Okay, I'm obsessed with that girl. But it was so odd that they chose to... Why do they all have the same friend? Okay, I'm obsessed with that girl. But it was so weird that they wouldn't have the conflict be between the Spice Girls. They would add in this woman who we have no idea who she is. No frame of reference for the Asian woman who...

Do you think she was a former Spice Girl? Oh, that would make sense, but no. No, they didn't even set that up a little bit. Well, because the Spice Girls don't have an Asian member, so that would kind of make sense. My biggest compliment I can give this movie is it's probably better than if Menudo made a movie. I'm pretty sure Menudo did make a movie. Oh, did Menudo make a movie? I'm sure there's a Menudo movie.

But there are so many Menudo did make a movie. I'm sure there's a Menudo movie. But there are several Menudo movies. Because the thing is Menudo was an evolving concern. Because as boys would age out, they would put new young boys in. So at some point. Oh, you're right. They released two featured films, Una Adventure La Madre Menudo and Menudo La Particulare.

Oh my god, we've got to watch those movies. I do not wanna be on that. One of my favorite things in this movie. Oh, did you not hear? You're on the rest of the episode. You have to do it. You're on every episode now. One of my favorite credits in an opening sequence was based on an idea.

Like, I've never seen that. I've seen like based on a story, but based on an idea. And that's what the whole movie feels like to me like the Spice Girls have just just casually just tossing out ideas like oh, yeah, then the aliens Oh, yeah, by the way, but that is what the movies about which is that someone else is making a movie in Hollywood And so at the end of the movie you realize like oh this movie really is all of these other bad pitches on what the Spice Girl movie is going to be so there was like that sort of meta quality to the movie. Well there's like three, there's literally three movies

going on in the movie. There's a documentary movie going on. There is the- That is shot terribly. Oh, awful. Like any time you see the documentary camera's point of view, it is shaky. It's Alan Cummings is the protagonist of that story.

Who is rocking denim on top, denim on bottom. Oh my god. There's a lot of that in this movie. He looks like a prisoner. At this point, the Spice Girls must be massively popular and this movie looks like it cost nothing. Oh yeah. Which is confusing to me.

But anyway, that documentary footage is shaky and out of focus and would lead one to believe that he has never made a documentary before in his life. Well, but he's also in a lot of the improvising he does, he's always concerned about the camera lenses. Yeah. Just like, whoa, whoa, whoa, no, we need a different lens. A wider lens on this one.

But he's never watching through a monitor. No, no. He's always on camera. He he's never watching through a monitor. No, no. He's on camera. He's just watching the scene play. He's saying that he needs different lenses. He's also bizarrely on camera sometimes, as like a Michael Moore type figure. Like, here I am, the Spice Girls are about to run down

this hallway. Yeah, I thought he worked for a news outlet. Yeah, no, it's a new start. We'll get to that. Well, I think he would. We'll get to that. I also like that they are performing at the top of the pops in the beginning of the movie.

And he's next to the documentary crew. And he's like, boost up. We need louder on the boom mic. It's like you're taping a concert with a boom mic in the middle of, there's a lot of. I'm sorry, just to clarify what you're describing. The documentary crew is in the audience. It's not like they're off to the side you're describing. Yeah. They are, the documentary crew is in the audience. Yes. It's not like they're off to the side of the stage.

No, yeah. It's not like they're on stage with the girls. They're in the middle of the audience. By the way, I don't know much, but I know you could probably plug into a sound board. There's definitely, you can probably just. Yes, you can get a live feed from what's going on. Even use that footage.

Even use the footage from the episode, maybe. That's what was so weird weird because at points it seems like this documentary has been, you know, approved by the Spice Girls and that they're a part of it. And then at other points, like, they have no access to the Spice Girls and it seems like this unsolicited, like... Well, he's never really in the same frame of them. He's always hovering above them. He's looking down on them.

He's far away above them. Yeah, he's looking down on them. He's far away from them Yeah, that that that part of the plot was also not and not nothing's very much defined It's sort of like here's an idea and then we'll walk away from it or The movie starts I do want to say the movie starts. I was very shocked with a ballad Oh, yeah movie starts like an explosive kind of like here's the Spice Girls movie ballad. Oh, yes! The movie starts like an explosive kind of like, here's the Spice Girls movie, ballad. It's like a laconic James Bond opening. I felt like it's like women who are like taking like, like older women who are learning how to dance seductively.

It's like the most unsexy James Bond dance. It's like, I'm trying to be sexy. Here's what I did learn about the Spice Girls. Uh oh, wow. Let's see. Uh oh. First of all, there's a lot of great things about this movie. I think that they, I'm serious.

I'm serious, you guys. What was? They are competent actresses, and I think you all know that. I do not disagree that they could carry the movie. I think some are okay. I think they're all great. Posh has some real problems.

I disagree. And Sporty. Yeah, Sporty's got a lot. I totally disagree. The other thing is that you can tell, Real problems. I disagree. I totally disagree. The other thing is that you can tell, I'm sorry, but you can tell they genuinely get along. Like there's an energy in those group scenes.

How do you know that? June, for real, how do you know that? Because I felt like there was like a really fun energy. I did, I really did. My thing was, first of all, they tried to start it with conflict between them. Yes. Because, you know, she's like,

should I wear the Gucci dress? What should I wear? She's like, maybe you should wear the little Gucci dress, or the little Gucci dress, or the little Gucci dress. They're just taking the piss out of each other, though, Retta. But then, of course, the black girl attacks Ginger over some boots. Yeah.

They try to put a little, like, crazy. Literally attacks, like, yeah. Jumps on her like an animal. Oh, yeah Always in some kind of leopard. Yes And in the dream the fantasy sequence is in tribal where I was like, come on By the way, also her name is scary spice, which is also a little bit weird Yeah, yeah a little bit where we're meant to be afraid of her because she's black, right?

Yes, I mean, OK. She's the aggressor. But here's my thing. It was always the leopard or she was wearing, you know, kente cloth in the dream sequence. But during rehearsal, she's wearing some space suit. Like a goose down jacket. What was that giant space suit?

Oh, no. Half of them are naked and she's wrapped up. Like a goose down jacket. What was that giant space suit? Oh no. Half of them are naked and she's wrapped up. That's her rehearsal outfit. It was hitches. It was crazy. I noticed that too. It was so bizarre. I didn't get it.

There was. And glasses too. And glasses. Yes, yes. And those glasses she would never like. She had to have the African hair. The zoo. Yeah.

At one point they might as well have put like a bone through her nose. I know. Because she's literally in like a loin cloth with a spear. The one black character is carrying a spear at one point. It was awful. I will also say that among these stereotypes, I was kind of grossed out in retrospect watching Baby Sp because it seemed like that was like almost like a pedophile thing

Oh, yeah, I sleep with my dollies. I want to ask my mommy a question like Heightening their personas, I mean what can somebody tell me then? What ginger's persona is red hair she dated Jerry O'Connell? What I've got to ask Jerry about that Right now At the improv and I was like Jerry what's up, and I was like, Jerry, what's up? And he was like, oh, me, me. And I was like, what? And this was like years after they were.

This is when, oh wait, this is after they were a big thing? Yeah, but I feel like they make fun of, Jerry's whole thing is like, girl power, but I don't quite understand. I think she's a feminist is her thing. She's a feminist, yes. I think that's her power is bizarrely feminism. And I love how they, I couldn't understand. I think they're all into girl power though, aren't they?

Yeah, yeah, they are. But I guess maybe it's more her thing. I did like that she... Which language did she choose to speak? Oh, she speaks Spanish, doesn't she? Was it Spanish that she was speaking? And then Baby speaks Japanese. Yeah.

Calm the fuck down. Well, I thought, I thought this was gonna be like, they were gonna go all over the world. You know, to the point, to the title of the movie. They never leave London. No, they went to Milan. That's not true, they flew.

Oh, okay. They went to Milan to shoot a music video with Gary Glitter. And they had the exact same bus in Milan. They did, they had that bus travel on the airplane. Oddly that bus travels No problem. Okay, so I just do want to talk about because reddit brought it up and I was obsessed with it So they have an old-timey double-decker bus that they the spice bus which they travel around it Yes, and they each have their own little pod

Only decorated character type that the Barbie style thing Yes, it looks like a bus that kind of bus character type. That the Barbie style thing, yes. It looks like a bus, that kind of bus from the outside with the big Union Jack flag on it or whatever. Then you walk in the bus, which Meat Loaf is the driver of. Which is amazing. Meat Loaf. Meat Loaf is just their driver. I felt like Meat Loaf was the best actor.

I felt like at some point Meat Loaf will probably sing. Nope. At some point Meat Loaf will have his own scene He does sing at one he's under his breath for a moment And he does sell out his own music by going like I love those Spice Girls, but I'll do anything Character just disappear at one point like when they go to the yeah, just okay. God No, no, no, he blew up at the end because there's a bomb on the bus, but you don't see that No, no, no, I thought that's a posture driving a car for us. Yeah, Pasha's driving but go ahead Yeah, so you walk in the bus and the interior of the bus is an enormous set that is probably

2,000 square feet. Yes, it is there's a balcony There's a balcony that is like enormous. It's bigger than our home. It's bigger than a home, yes. And they each have their own little area and they're acting on this set, which is supposed to be the interior of the bus. Like they're running around, they're fighting,

they're having a pillow fight, they're on a, and Sporty's on an exercise bike, they're all doing all this stuff. And I'm like, this bus is in motion. This bus is driving the streets of London. They do not obey. They do not obey any of the physics of that. It is absolutely mental.

But I mean, where is Richard Grant's office? Richard Grant is their manager. Upstairs. Upstairs, but you don't, so there's another level. There's like three levels on this double decker bus. He has like a balcony that you see it once. It's sort of like a balcony. And his command center.

But by the way, I was obsessed. Where he gives announcements over a microphone, like, please do not put the moisturizer in their refrigerator, because some people will mistake it for mayonnaise. I was obsessed. Got that joke, move on. Actual line from the movie.

I was obsessed with the fact that in his office, there were like three TVs of security camera footage of the bus. Yes, yeah. But like they are the only... He's a hardcore perv. He is watching this. They're the only people on that bus.

Oh yes. Except for... There's nobody else. I'm sorry, except for when children are allowed on the bus. Are the children put in seats and put seat belts on? No, they're allowed to wander around a moving bus, then are put on a speedboat. Now those children though,

for people who haven't seen the movie, get a Day with the Spice Girls because they won competition? A competition. What kind of competition? What is competition though? Is that a thing? I felt like a sweepstakes or something.

I gotta admit to you, by that point, I really wasn't watching. Oh, okay. The movie was on and I was just so angry in front of it. It's totally fine. So I couldn't follow along. I was like, what are these kids here for? I was like, I don't know.

Yeah, those kids, and then all of a sudden, they're on a speedboat with kids. I feel like- Well, that's the thing is like, some parents gave these Spice Girls like two 10 year olds and then the Spice Girls A are driving them around London and like, we're so bored. Let's run off the bus, jump on a random speedboat and go speedboating around, which they then do and then they and the little girls fall off of the speedboat. This is reckless endangerment.

These movies that are like for the fans that have no real story, that are not movies, that are just sort of like, you know, other platforms for them to expose themselves are so interesting. It's not the first time this has been done, but it's like the whole plot of the movie is really the Spice Girls don't wanna do their music for the fans.

Like they want time off to just not perform. But here's my other thing. And this is the thing. So crazy. A morning off is all they want. Now here's the thing. I understand that. I don't understand why it's so hard to put a simple plot around it, but here's my bigger issue with the plot of the movie, and I put that in quotes, is they're nervous about performing

live at Albert Hall. All they do is perform live. The entire movie they're performing live at Albert Hall. All they do is perform live! The entire movie they're performing live. But they say over and over again, which I couldn't figure out that this is going to be their first concert. But we've seen them perform in the movie!

They started, yeah, that's how they opened the movie. Numerous times, yes. And they are at the, in this movie, they are the height of the Spice Girls. Right, because they're in the papers all the time. Exactly, it's not like they're becoming the Spice Girls. They start off on live television, they go to Milan, they perform a live concert in Milan,

they perform live a fuckload in this movie. But they keep talking about how this is gonna be their first, I don't know, there's some stakes to maybe it's cause it's been a real Albert Hall. Worldwide live, I mean like, I have a guess. That's by the way stretching on plot. Like, well this is the first time we're performing live for the world.

And they made a really strange choice with the editor of the newspaper, the guy who runs the Daily Edition. The antagonist is basically the newspaper. Well basically Rupert Murdoch, right? I mean. He's Rupert Murdoch, but the reason why he wants to take down the Spice Girls is because

they're on the front page of the paper every day. But with good press. Right. Good press, but they're also selling a lot of papers. That's what's so- Well, what's the circulation? Do we know? I didn't get any numbers on that.

No, but that was an interesting thing. He wants to bring them down. Because he's already selling a lot. I think he thinks the story will be longer lived. If he can create news, meaning them falling apart, them, blah, blah, blah, then he will own those stories. And his paper will be number one. He starts off as his paper being number one one and the Spice Girls being on.

Hey listen, I don't understand why J. Jonah Jameson hates Spider-Man because it's only good news for him. But there's a long history of newspaper bad guys. That's true. Especially currently in 1998. That's true. I'm sure that's relevant still. I kind of like those scenes. I kind of like those scenes

I kind of like the newspaper bad guy look when when he gets angry it starts raining in his office I'm done with this He slams his fist on the table lightning and thunder start striking then it starts raining on the man in his office And no one comments because it is literally raining on one side of the office. That's the other thing about this movie, that you think, oh, that's a fantasy sequence. Nope.

No, no, it's all real and all of this. But then there are fantasy sequences, like the all the Spice Girls are pregnant fantasy sequence. That's crazy. We basically get super crazy. We get a glimpse into them as deeply erotic. We get a glimpse of them as 30. That's basically what that was when we go, we go like, I wonder what we'll be like at 30. How old are they in the, because I always remember them as more kind of young teenage girls.

They were never that. They were never that. I thought they were in their 20s. If not older. Which is interesting though. It's like that probably couldn't happen now. Like you were sort of, you were sort of, you were sort of, you were sort of, They were never that. Yeah. I thought they were in their 20s. Yeah, they had to be. If not older.

Which is interesting though. It's like that probably couldn't happen now. Like they were sort of. Jerry Hallowell now is 40. So the rest are 37 now. 98 to 27. So yeah, so they're, yeah. And where did they come from?

Were they sort of manufactured by a label? Well, they came from that, yeah. I guess so. Well, they're, I mean, in this movie. Where did they meet in that pizza spot at Rendezvous Cafe? Oh my God, by the way, they totally abandoned David, or whatever his name was, from the Rendezvous. Their thing is all about loyalty and friendship,

but they totally bail on basically their version of the Peach Pit, and because of that, because they didn't pay their bill, it closes. And who the fuck is Roger Moore then? Is Roger Moore, Roger Moore is like this guy who's like their boss? I don't under, yeah, I'm like, why is he so invested? Okay, I'm really obsessed with his assistant, Deborah.

Oh yeah. Oh. Who's also wearing denim. She wears a denim jacket the entire morning. Oh, wait, Richard Grant you're talking about. Roger Moore. Oh, Roger Moore. I'm sorry, sorry, I was talking about Richard Grant. All right, let's go to, let's talk about, yeah, Richard Grant's assistant.

Who's a real-time actress? Who was down the hit? I was just gonna say, who is that? Who was down the hit? She was in Secrets and Lies. She's like an amazing, amazing British actress. Oh yeah, that's right, that's right. Well, yeah, I was a little thrown by the fact

that they totally hooked up. And then he did exactly what she said he was gonna do it. He dissed her afterwards. But then they had never addressed it. Never addressed it again. At least I don't think so, I wasn't really paying attention. No, they basically go like, they share a knowing glance, and then that's about it.

There's no real connection after all. But I feel like they totally, he was like, I'm cool with that, and I feel like it happened. It happened and he dissed her. When he said I'm cool with it too, it seemed rapey to me. It didn't seem like creepy. It didn't seem like they'd have fun sex.

It seemed like it would be bizarre and scarring. It's going to be disappointing. Yeah. Wait guys, so I'm sorry to go back to the Rendezvous Cafe, but the Asian pregnant lady was there. And she was friends with them, not pregnant. This, and this by the way, sorry, this is a flashback and the introduction to this flashback is a very long time ago.

A very long time ago, right? So within the context of the movie, within the context of the movie, they're showing a very long time ago and when in the far future when they're 30 so you would assume that this movie can span a 15 to 20 year period they look the exact same constantly I will also say that just to put you in the perspective of the Spice Girls Their first album came out and then ten months later this movie and their second album came out So there and it was. Really?

Yeah. So within a year their whole thing happened. So I guess time really was very fast. That's what makes sense. Well, but this Asian woman was so it's just so interesting of a character is just like friends with this girl group, but not in it. And all she did. No desire to be in it.

No desire to be in it. And all she did was like press play on the boom box. But by the way, what kind of husband did she have that left her in the fourth trimester? Trevor. Trevor. That guy sounds like a real piece of shit. That was her husband?

I don't think he was her husband. Or her baby daddy. Why do you, why do you? Which is another weird thing you'd think in a girl power movie that she wouldn't be single and pregnant But yeah, she pretty much was though, but she seemed very like she needed a lot of thing is that once they realize they need to go that they're like

Abandoning their friends and they want to go take her out. They take a how many months pregnant? Yeah, because she's a baby that night they take take a nine month pregnant woman to a nightclub. Yeah, like a very loud, packed, and dance club. They abandon her in the nightclub and they start dancing on the floor. And she's looking, and again, a lot of balcony work in this movie. The best use of balconies in any movie ever.

Even more so than Queer as Folk. And they had a lot of balconies. Well, the other weird thing about the nightclub scenes, and there are many, is that you think it's at night, and then they'll cut to an exterior shot, and it's brightest day. Just brightest day. The movie knows no time or space.

But was she drinking a beer? She was definitely drinking out of a can, that pregnant woman up there. Oh, I didn't notice that. Maybe that beer helped the baby a lot. In England, you can still drink when you're pregnant. Oh, is that right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because it's on the opposite side of the street. And in the States you can go to the club pregnant. They did it in not though. Yeah, right. That's true. Okay.

So I, uh, well they're, oh my God, guys, guess what? I just realized the writer of this movie also wrote from Justin to Kelly of course it did yeah, wow Lot of sense and a movie called s Club 7 which I don't know that was a TV show I could never I would argue that from Justin to Kelly is a better movie I feel like he kind of reeled it in which is in the Kelly Yeah, Kim Turner. Yeah, I believe it's a man though I'm gonna give him fuller And I think it's Simon Fuller's brother. Oh Create you're right. It is a guy. Oh

Yeah, Kim I want to talk about oh, oh my god. I have something enormous to talk. Yeah, okay so I'm sorry to return to this but on the bus that they exist on Render wrote me she's like I could watch Mission Impossible three three times possible three three times it was 999 I apologize to you guys who are buying is yeah how dare you I know and then I saw 999 so I started searching elsewhere I went all over for it too I thought for sure you could find it rent guys I now own this movie is upsetting when you look on my iPad, it is my Amazon Instant purchase,

my first Amazon Instant purchase. Absolutely horrible. So they're on the bus, and at one point, they all have to pull the bus over to go to the bathroom out in the woods. Oh, yes. By the way, all of the bathrooms have been jammed up. And Meat Loaf says, by the way, multiple bathrooms

on this double decker bus, and Meatloaf is like, hey man, it's hard to get a plumber to come to your house, but it's even harder to get a plumber to come out to a moving bus. Yeah. That was his excuse. You couldn't move to a plumber? Yeah.

By the way, it doesn't seem like the cut. And you made stops along the way. There's not much plumbing in a bus. They gotta, you shit in a pot, and then they empty that pot. That's it. Done. That is all it is. Well, I think they do reference beforehand, though,

that there's a lot of hair that's getting caught up in the drains. In the drains, which means that there's showers. And these girls are shitting so much. The Spice Girls are fucking shitting their brains out. They're clogging up those It's just like fucking diarrhea stupid but tampons

You know what it is it's just just full of sanitary napkins Just like I don't ever want to hear you say Full of bloody sanitary name it get a meme get a meme VUKAS going on bloody sanitary napkins. Get a meme, get a meme, Zookas going on sanitary napkins. Bloody sanitary napkins. So they all jump out of the bus to run into the woods to pee, right? And they've got flashlights, they're running, they're running, they're running. They run what appears to me to be a very long time. And then a spaceship comes down.

Like a close encounter style giant spaceship comes down. You're like, oh my God, what's that? What is going on? Aliens come out. Literally, aliens come out, and their I was like, I don't know. They are answering the aliens as if they understand their alien language. That's how worldly they are.

Because the reason why that works, yeah. There is no reason why! They are talking about aliens. All right, I won't tell you. I won't tell you that. I need to know, I need to know. I'll tell you why, because earlier in the movie, we've seen that the Spice Girls basically different languages different languages in every language

So it would only follow that they would know this They would know Alien? Yeah And they're not fazed by the aliens. They're not like oh shit aliens are like they're like fans fans coming out I guess these aliens are here We just need to take a hot number two in the forest and fucking aliens aliens aliens fucking love the spice Go grab their boobs. They grab their boobs. They're shaking. Oh, we gotta shake hands Yeah, they go to grab boobs and then the one guy says ginger space. Can I get a kiss and ginger spice?

straight up Kisses this shrunken-headed alien dude on the goddamn mouth. Why is this happening? Hey guys, this is irresponsible. You cannot say that the Spice Girls do not love their fans, no matter shape, size, or hometown.

She easily could have given him a kiss on the cheek. She goes for the mouth. Holy cow. She'll take what she can get. I almost barfed on that. Man, Jerry got those alien sloppy seconds, man. O'Connell got that alien. One of my favorite moments of the movie

is it's a small one, and you may have missed it, but later on when they're in the hospital with the Asian lady, by the way, there's never a doctor in that delivery room. There's only a nurse delivering babies. And the sound in that room is so terrible, it's like an echo chamber. It's like they actually are like,

you know, we have a location, and we're just gonna shoot in this room. Just keep it in here, keep it in here. It was really weird, it was almost scary. For a while it appears as though the Spice Girls are going to have to deliver the baby because they're not gonna get to the hospital. But instead what happens is they get to the hospital

and the Spice Girls deliver the baby anyway. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. When they deliver the baby, don't they say like, that's girl power? Yeah, I did like that moment. Guess what? None of them are sterilized. They're all still wearing their clothes. That's why it's girl power. The girl, they don't have any.

It's also really weird because earlier on while they're waiting for her to deliver, they're sitting in the waiting room and a doctor's sitting next to them. Yes! Okay, but my favorite moment of the movie is right before they deliver the baby, there's a nurse that walks in, there's two nurses there, and they're, you know, the clock is ticking. They're off to the side. They're off to the side, but the clock is ticking. They've got to get at this concert, you know, in minutes.

The Spice Girls, too. But by the way, doesn't even one of the nurses go, I'm going to see the Spice Girls? Well, this is my favorite moment, because the woman says, I have tickets to go see the Spice Girls tonight, and the other nurse says, oh, okay, and the woman's like, you know, taking off her stuff, she's ready to go to the concert. And she goes, I'll see you later. Hopefully. What does that mean? What does that mean?

Hopefully. I don't know. I think she means because the Spice Girls are still in the hospital room. Well, no, but why would that dictate? She didn't know that they were there because the Spice Girls were all face-tripped. No, she knows that the Spice Girls.

Jason, I'm telling you, they all changed that. So you're saying that woman's line means I might die. I might commit suicide. I don't know. She didn't deliver it like looking at them like hopefully if they get out of there. It was like she and the Spice Girls were listening to her and sort of looking behind them but not wanting her to see them. See, that's why I think, that's why I think she was, it meant like, hopefully kind of a knowing gesture to say like, hopefully you broads get on stage. No, you see, I thought she was saying like,

I'll hopefully see you tonight, not like I'll hopefully see the Spice Girls tonight. Right. Why is she saying goodbye to the other nerds? Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I'll see you hopefully. I'll see you later. I wrote it down.

See you later. Hopefully. See, it's not like I'll see the Spice Girls, hopefully. It's like, I'll see you later. Hopefully. You, my friend. Because even if she did. You're sure she wasn't speaking aloud to the Spice Girls,

basically? Can we pull it up? Can we pull up the moment? Because I'm telling you... I mean, because that is... I agree I noticed it, but I assumed it was for the Spice Girls. No, no, no, no, no, Jason. She was speaking to the other nerds even if she did know the Spice Girls were there, which I don't think she did.

But you keep plotting to the Spice Girls hearing her. And it's reminding them in the context of the scene that they gotta go. Right, so that hopefully they see her later. No, not, she's not saying it to them. She's saying to the nurse, I'll see you later. I know, I'm just trying to make sense of this because I genuinely don't think the woman is planning on dying later.

Can I tell you my opinion of what happened? Please pull it up for me. I don't know if I can pull it up, but here's what I'll say I think happened. they did one take and that actor messed up her lines you say I'll hopefully see the Spice Girls tonight see you later yeah and she just is like slightly dyslexic and read her lines and the sides wrong and just put it and at that point they had spent so much time like we gotta go we gotta do like 57 setups today. And all the Spice Girls are literally, Posh has her face in the pregnant woman's vagina.

Yes. Like they're all sitting around the bed and Posh, every time they come to Posh, she's just staring down the stirrups straight into this girl's fucking face. Girl power, bro, girl power. I do wanna talk about, besides talking about why George Wynn wanted to take a free trip to London

and appeared in this movie. You know what, I just realized why he was in my dream. Oh, cause you saw him in the movie? Cause I forgot he was in the movie and I was like. Wait, Reddit, did you have a sex dream about George Wynn? No, I did not. He was. Don't spare a detail.

He was like the dad of some guy that I liked in my dream. That's so weird, I just now realized that's why he was in my dream. George went. Let's unpack this, let's get into it. Who is the guy that you liked and how did you have to get through? He was very, very young.

Oh boy. I think it's because I met a bunch of very young boys last night. Oh okay. Oh my God, that's so weird. Interesting, interesting. This is like when the Spice Girls discussed their dreams. Oh yeah, one goes, I had a dream just like yours,

but mine was worse. My face was still there, my head was still there, but there was no makeup on it. I felt like there was large periods of this where I felt like they had lifted the entire plot from a Scooby-Doo episode. Yeah. Well, I felt like the moment that I thought, I was like, oh, they're just gonna use all the cliches,

i.e. when the pregnancy came up, I said, of course. Right. But the moment that made me say, oh, it's just gonna be these vignettes of things was when they went to boot camp. Oh, yeah. I was like, yeah. Well, let's even put it in context.

They didn't go to boot camp, they went to a dance instructor that turned into a boot camp? A Nazi dance instructor. A Nazi dance instructor. It's hard because all of this is rationalized with the fact that it's all under the umbrella of every single plot line that you could come up with for a Spice Girls movie is in this movie.

But that's not, is that the rationalization? Spice Girls 5? Yeah. Spice Girls 5 is pretty great. That's why Aliens Land. That's the Mark McKinney thing in the end where he's pitching different iterations of the movie that we've seen

is that all of these things have just been those moves, those failed pitches or whatever. Well, I mean, that is a terrible way to build your movie around failed pitches. I mean, they basically are doing boot camp, a colorful boot camp in front of the Downton Abbey Castle and they're running around. Oh, how about, how was the weird was that they live at Downton Abbey basically? Yeah. Was that their home? Was that their home? Yes, they live in a haunted house. They live in a haunted house basically they said. Wait,

I can't remember. Did they live there? Because I remember them standing in front of that thing where they're like. When they have the scary dream, they said I can't remember did they live there because I remember them standing in front of that thing where they're like When they have the scary dream, they all wake up cafe is where they used to live above rendezvous cafe Yeah, I think I don't even remember rendezvous cafe They tell me what you want. Well, yeah, they're famous. Tell me what you want. Like we really really want that was Yeah, and cuz they don't have enough money. They haven't made it yet They don't have enough money and and and and made it yet. They don't have enough money. And he's like, they're like, put it on my tab.

And he's like, you don't have any money. You don't have a tab. Whatever. And they're like, when we're big and famous, we're going to pay you back. And then they play the new song for him, which is, I'll tell you what I want when I really get that one. Which is really catchy.

And yeah, it is. It is. This is the one thing I'll say, that I was very angry with the movie. I was very mad that I had to watch it. I had my back to it most of the time, so I was listening to it, but I really wasn't paying attention. But every time they sang, I turned around to watch.

Oh, see, every time they sing, I fast forward. Really? Yes. That's when the only time I paid attention. But I also watched Glee. All right. I liked that one song, too, where they were raising their fists. Go on. Well, this is actually, well, this is, I wanna bring up two things about that.

Number one, that scene, that go on scene, they're performing Milan and they get really offended that these men are shirtless, just wearing like, Oh, right, right, right. Wearing, just like, they're wearing sailor caps and like bikini briefs. And they're like, this is, we won't dance, and they, you know, they're girl powering up. This up supposed to be corny, but this is really corny yeah

And then so the compromise that they make is they put these men in leisure suits with their ass cheeks We have their ass cheeks cut out and and thinking to myself Why did the Italian the the Italian guy who's putting on this concert want men's ass cheeks? So much yeah for the Spice Girls concert. It doesn't make any sense to me. Like why, like what? I think they were just saying like, I don't know. I did turn around for that as well.

And. The beefcake, is the beefcake part? Well, yeah, when they were, because we were performing. Sure, yeah. And, but it looked like they were fake to me. Fake asses. It looked like it was fake, but on the leisure they were fake to me. It looked like it was fake butts on the leisure seat. Yeah, exactly.

I don't think they were though. I think they were really cut out. Really? I feel like it just looked like plastic on the pants. It looks like plastic, yes, I agree. Do you think this movie is for children? I agree. Is this movie supposed to be for children?

Because they are also in that moment like talking about like bone zoning. Yes. The Italian men or why they can't. You know like Emma, that's where Baby Splice is like, well I have this stuffed animal and I have that. And that's what was too creepy for me. And she goes, and so I just don't have room for you in my bed darling.

Yeah. Or whatever and I was like, what? That's what creeped me out. I was like, I don't wanna hear, like I don't mind you being cute like a little girl and you have a lollipop, but when you're talking about all the animals in your bed, I'm just saying that that was a creepy, a creepy part.

If you had to have sex with one Spice Girl, which Spice Girl would it be? Baby Spice. Great question. Or Posh. Guys, even a better question. If we were all Spice Girls, who would we be? Oh boy. Oh boy. I know who I'm stuck with.

Oh boy. No, I was actually gonna say I think Jason's scary Spice. Reda, you have to be the black one. You have to be the black. What? How dare you? Sorry. How dare you?

I will happily be Scary Spice. It's the hair. I think you're Baby Spice. You're on Baby Spice? I'll take it. I'll take Baby Spice. Who are you? I don't know, you tell me.

It's a good one. I feel like I'm sporty. You might be sporty. You might be sporty. I'll take baby spice. Who are you? I don't know you tell me Good one. I feel like I'm you might be sporty By the way the one with all the talent I kind of think you're Sporty of all the talent Sporty is the only one who can sing legitimately. Yeah, and she's honestly the only hearing I'm posh Yeah, be posh. Yeah posh? You might be posh. Yeah, you're Victoria Malcolm. You might be posh. Can I just also talk, this is something

you can find online. You can find online, by the end of that Italian men assasine, Gary Glitter comes out, and he does a whole thing. It's not even a movie. Convicted child molester, Gary Glitter? Exactly, so when this movie came out, a week before the movie came out,

he was convicted of being a child molester. So they cut that scene out of the movie. They shot this. This movie actually was plagued by a couple things. They had a joke about Princess Diana and Gianni Versace. They both also died right before the movie came out. So this movie had a lot of weird stuff. There was a whole third act set piece

that took place in the World Trade Center. Oh, actually it's 1998 1998 so it wouldn't matter. But they saw it coming. The thing that was most disturbing to me was Stephen Fry as the judge sentencing them to their futures like you'll be on reality shows pimping out the fact that you were Spice Girls like oh shit they are they are Mel B is now on America's Got Talent. And I think the other was somebody. Was one of them in Celebrity Rehab? I don't think so.

I don't think so, but they've been on reality shows. And Victoria and David had a show. Yeah, they were on that. I was gonna say you guys, I didn't meet them, but I saw Victoria Beckham and David Beckham at a hotel once in the lobby, and they were very nice. I saw a lot of people run up to them, and they were, they seemed like very nice people.

I just had to say that. I just had to say that they seemed very nice. We weren't attacking their character. The interesting thing, I really appreciate her because I heard that she was the reason why they became so much bigger and more popular is because she was like, you have to stop talking to the press.

Like he's not bright and he was always saying dumb shit and she was like, I love you. I will have all the babies you want but you gotta stop talking. You're not smart. You know you're not smart. And it just makes her, and then she looked bad. So just limit what you say.

Like she was basically, she PR'd him. And it's like, and then they just started getting, because he was visible, but he just wasn't. Cause you know how they'll show up to a red carpet and they'll be like, what do you think about Kristen Stewart breaking her toe? And you're like, one, I didn't hear about it. Two, why would I care about her toe?

Like she's limping, whatever. And so people would, yeah, he would have long, bring in diatribes about shit that, cause he would just go on, you know, like as if he was talking to his boys. And you're like, hey bro. I'm a disc-a-dick. I'm a disc-a-dick.

Yes. I mean, is it girl power? Are they really preaching girl power or anti-girl power? I mean, Jen. Well, I remember reading a statistic that said in the movies that were made in the last, well since movies have been made, when a baby is born, the phrase it's a boy

has been uttered like 90% of the time. Really? Yes. Like girl babies are not born in movies. And so I did, I have to say, tear up a little bit when the girl baby was born and she said, this is girl power. Well, of course, girl power. Girl power.

Jerry appears to deliver that baby. Ginger Spice apparently delivers the baby and is the first person to hold it. Which, by the way, is crazy because the scene before when they were in the bus almost delivering the baby, their ideas about delivering babies are so horrifying. So crazy. Crazy, she's like, she's wearing stockings.

But that's why I feel like. And then Jerry screams into her vagina, stay in there, we're not ready for you yet. If I was that woman, I would be so terrified. I would not want the Spice Girls to deliver my baby. I would not want my baby to be born on the Spice Bus, otherwise my baby definitely is gonna have chlamydia. The Spice Girls to deliver my baby. I would not want my baby to be born on the Spice Bus, otherwise my baby definitely is gonna have chlamydia.

The Spice Bus that has all kinds of blocked. Although with that hospital room, I think the Spice Bus had more, was more capable. Well here, I will talk just about the end with Mark McKinney. He's like the hack writer who went to Harvard pitching these movie ideas. And they basically- He's probably a lampoon guy. Yeah.

They basically make the ending of the movie. They're like, ah, why write it? Let's just have someone narrate the ending. Like he narrates the most insane ending and it like tries to draw together like anything that doesn't make any sense. It's just sort of like, if the movie goes from being like a film

to just someone literally pitching the ending and they just cut away to like moments of see it. It is actually the most clever and dumb thing I've ever seen in my life. And what's really weird is that when he like reveals the very end he's like, and then they walk through the door just in time to make the concert and then they don't.

And then what's his face, Clifford? Richard Grant. Richard Grant says to him, when they don't walk in, you lied to me. Yeah. And he starts choking him by the neck. Which is so confusing. And he starts choking him by the neck. So is this a movie? At which point, Richard E. Grant then decides

his only option is to commit suicide and he fashions a noose out of rope. This is a children's movie. Maybe everybody who's going to that concert was planning on committing suicide that night. That's it. The nurse, Richard E. Grant, it's like it is a mass suicide

plot. They were gonna, they were like the hellbots. It's like a Heaven's Gate scenario. Wait a second, but you know what, this actually delutes everything that you said because you were, I'm gonna drink the Kool-Aid, the Spice Girl Kool-Aid. But now, so basically that contradicts everything that you guys said that the boot camp sequence

is not part of a movie because then they shoot the movie afterwards. Because the end of the movie, they're shooting the movie that he's pitched, so that would mean that the movie that we watched is all real. Right. No, I actually think I know what it is now. I think the movie that we watched is the documentary

that Alan Cullen has. But he's never around, no. No, no, that doesn't make sense. Does he have fantasy? The camera quality is much different. But he's never around, no. No, no, that doesn't make sense. Does he have fantasy? The camera quality is much different. That's true. I think, I mean, I think it's, honestly, I think it's a little bit of a cheat.

I think the movie, the Mark McKinney bit at the end is meant to justify all the fantasy sequences, but then the last bit is meant to be a bit of comedy, kind of, what's weird about it is, in the credit sequence, so there's a credit sequence in which it's behind the scenes basically, and the Spice Girls are talking to

Alan Cumming and Richard E. Grant, and everybody's talking about how they're gonna play their character or what they want them to do. Very self-aware, probably the most self-aware and most fun part of the movie. Most interesting part, except for Mark McKinney, who is still playing his screenwriter character.

Yes, he is not Mark McKinney. So I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, what are you doing here? Yeah. Obviously we had a big- He's really weird. I'm sorry, I'm just going back to, Richard E. Grant has a noose ready to go.

Oh yeah, yeah. I mean, by the way, also, he goes, I've broken up the Spice Girls at one point in the movie. And then they're back together, literally, within 30 seconds. They didn't break up. Oh my God, remember when they all wind up at the rendezvous in the middle of the night alone on the London streets in pajamas that's that that's the part that

I was I was like I thought that was their house no thought they were saying that was their old house they walked from the day they walked from the British countryside to downtown London in pajamas. And no one mobbed them. What? It's nighttime, everyone's asleep in Britain. They had the classic line, what are you doing here? Same thing you are. I was like, check.

And by the way, they all, this is what happened. They all left the same house and got to the same place Presumably taking the same route and did not see each other I am I this whole life this whole movie feels like it was written down on cocktail napkins and someone literally just goes here That's a movie. I just don't worry. It's all there. It's like that comic book axe cop is like written by a five-year-old So it's like oh now he's riding a dinosaur and he has this it's like that's what this movie is like as told to Screenwriter obviously we had opinions about this movie But there are some people who thought a little bit better of it is now time for a second opinion

These are five-star reviews cold from Amazon from Amazon.com. These are second opinions. From top to bottom, crazy movies are fun. Karen from Wisconsin writes, this is a carefree, fun movie for anyone. Well, not dumb people who think movies need plots and good acting to make an awesome movie. But this is what life is really like.

Fly by your seat Every more fly by the seat of your pants enjoy every moment and dress up in funny costumes five stars Oh my god, that is awesome I like this one here. This is the title is it's so filled with girl power Future is female. Oh my god. This video is the bomb. My buddy let me borrow when I had no dosh to get it. I don't know what dosh is.

I was having a bloke bummer day until I saw this. And cheers, I don't need a boyfriend to make my life complete, and this is for you Sherry, my best buddy, girl power, five stars. Although I'm almost positive that person was British British and you should have read it in a British I should sorry I apologize for that and then finally say bloke The final five-star review Spice Girls. There's five of them. They're singers. I loved it Granted, there's no story or plot

But this is one of those rare movies that doesn't need a plot. Plus, if the English audio isn't funny enough, just turn it to French. It will make you giggle. Oh, that's amazing. Five fucking stars. That is an easy, I like that there are certain movies that just don't need a plot.

Don't need a plot. What's so bad about that? Holy moment. At any point, anybody wants to talk about Roger Moore feeding a baby pig with him? Roger Moore douches out everything that he did as James Bond in moments. Like, he dresses as Blofeld, he does martini jokes,

but I don't even understand what he is. There was a genuinely very funny scene in the movie where Alan Cummings is interviewing those two kids who are about to get on the bus. I mean, that was a funny bit, and that really made me laugh. Speaking of which, I wanted to go back. They were both girls? Those two kids, yeah.

I thought the little black one was a boy. I thought the black one was a boy, too. No, I think it's a little girl. No, that's girl power. Oh, that is girl power. I really did think, I was like, when you said the two little girls fall in the water I was like, I thought one was a little I definitely thought I was a boy with sporty spice a lesbian

In real life or in the in the context of the oh no She just loves to go to her exercise bike an exit like an old timey exercise Yeah, like like not like any kind of modern exercise equipment Yeah, it was in the em. It was on the bus. It was literally on, um. On the bus. It was on the bus. It was literally on the bus. She's riding an exercise bike on a bus. Wait, scary? Oh, sporty.

Sporty. Oh, I thought she was on a, you know what? I really wasn't paying attention because I thought she was on one of these. What place did you watch? An elliptical? I'm telling you, I got really, really angry. A Nordic track?

Uh-oh, guys. And I was like, I wouldn't allow it to seep into my soul. I have a question. Yeah. At a certain point, it appeared as though the movie was only positing that they were their actual names, Emma, Jerry, blah, blah, and that they then discovered that their monikers were true.

Because at some point, somebody was like to Victoria, you're so posh. I felt like there were a couple of moments where it seemed as though they were gonna become those personas, but then that never really happened. Did anybody else notice that? That was cool. They talked about it, they said, they said, I hate that everybody thinks that we're only,

Right, yes, these things. You know, the persona from the, Which then led into the, And then they switched, they did this, which I totally got through. A great montage, a great fashion montage, where they all pretended they were each other. Yeah. And belittled each other. But then they switched they did this which I great montage a great fashion montage. They all pretended they were each other Yeah, and be little just pretended they were in different like eras. Yeah, they were old timey

That was the thing it was like we actually said I wish people wouldn't stereotype us This is posh and then the first costume the posh is in is Jackie. Oh, it's like yeah, that's the same That's posh from the past You're doing the same thing. That's posh from the past. Yes. You're not really, really missing it. I would have loved it if they were like, oh, I'm so tired of being typecast. But then it was just like all of them dressed as homeless people.

Just like disgusting. Well, but in the movie at the very end, when they were doing the behind the scenes thing, aren't they saying that they don't wanna be, like they don't wanna be doing things that they, you know, Right, they don't wanna be riding a they don't wanna be doing things that they, you know, they do it. Right, they don't wanna be riding a sport, they wanna be riding an exercise bike.

I liked that end scene. That end scene to me was pretty great. Oh, I liked that too. It was all done in a oner and then they looked at the audience and they were like saying, like they were like, I like your dress to the audience

and stop eating your popcorn. It was really fun. Yeah, I took it as thanks for a 9.99. Yeah. Rettah, thanks Rettah for 9.99. They just start giving you the finger, fuck you. This is shit. Talk to you later, Rettah.

Because there's still like $10 off the streaming of this book. 14 years later and you just bought this for 10 bucks? You. Thanks for 10 bucks, Rettah. You're gonna dream about George Wynn tonight. Exactly. I mean, this is what I cannot figure out because the movie is not very good

and I get that they were hugely popular, but the cameo list in this movie is Elvis Costello, Elton John, Bob Geldof. Was there for a second. He didn't even have a line. He's like, oh, hi girls. Elvis Costello is a bartender. Elvis Costello, best cameo.

Jules Holland, I mean, like Bob Geldof, Bob Hoskins. Yeah. Jennifer Saunders, like it's crazy. Jennifer Saunders, by the way way is wearing a Versace t-shirt Notice that she's gonna be like a high fashion Person in the movie she posh meets her at a or someone meets her at a at the dance club at the dance club And there's a joke about like she's asking her about all the brands and Versace and product all the stuff And she's well no and then pos says, yeah, have you ever,

have you seen the new Manatee collection? No, Manta Ray. Oh, Manta Ray. Because they're talking about Manta Ray fish. And Jennifer Saunders is like pretending to know what it is. As a high fashion person, she is dressed and costumed. Her wardrobe is a blazer and a t-shirt underneath that simply says Versace.

Did anyone know who that one guy was? I think his name was Brad when they were like, oh Brad, you need to change your hair. And they gave him like a crazy, I thought that was like a British person that I didn't really know. There was a bunch of those that I didn't know.
