Starting point is 00:01:05 Of the videos, that's we drop. All right. Andrew has dropped down there. How do you feel? I feel good. Thank you, by the way, to Prepper. We appreciate you. Yes.
Starting point is 00:01:17 That was amazing. I love the dramatic and emotional tension we got throughout the film. And I like how we started with Robert Carlyle's character, just seeing that he is a survivor at all costs, even though I wasn't a fan of that choice. But it does delve into the question as like, what would we all do in that situation if put? I would obviously sacrifice myself.
Starting point is 00:01:42 But I mean, I say that now in the comfort right here. But, you know, I thought it was just a, interesting place to start the film and then again building off that and then going with his children but i really like where this uh this film uh you know just the chaotic tension that we got throughout the film with him and his kids and then just everyone was expendable basically i think i think we all knew that nothing was at least i felt the way that nothing was going to happen with the kids but i knew everyone else like no one had a uh anything could happen to anyone and i also i love the way it's been a while i didn't i didn't have a chance to rewatch the first one so i don't remember
Starting point is 00:02:23 how the cinematography works other than what you guys were saying but i really love the way they they had everything done here in terms of you know from the povs and it just felt so chaotic and just like it just felt like we were there with the characters and again the score by john murphy absolutely beautiful it really had a pulse on the film and as our hearts were racing i thought it just really captured the spirit of the film. And I thought this was the appropriate way to take the story, even though we didn't continue on with the characters from the first film. But, yeah, I really enjoyed this one.
Starting point is 00:02:58 I'm anxious to see where they go next with, I think, 28 years later? I'm anxious to see where the story goes next, but I thought this was a very compelling story with the children. Obviously, I know we were not all the biggest fans of the decision they made, but at the end of the day, their kids, they were thinking about their mom, and I can totally understand that. I have had it Oh it's me
Starting point is 00:03:21 I feel I feel alive I feel like we made it I feel like this is you know the I don't think exasperate is the right word but this is the you know what
Starting point is 00:03:36 humans do at the edge of their rope you know it's a very bleak movie it's a scary movie it's a movie that shows what we would do in the dire situations are what certain people will do, what governments will do. A movie about survival
Starting point is 00:03:54 and, you know, survival in relation to family as well. Yeah, I think this is a really, really well-executed to film. You know, I don't know if this one is beloved as the first movie, but from the feelings I remember watching the first movie, I got to watch a little bit of the first one before coming into this one, but it definitely captured
Starting point is 00:04:14 that chaos. I remember in the second half of that, that movie and yeah I like the characters that we got to follow I thought that it's always interesting seeing a brother and sister try to you know navigate a problem and then be in a situation where the odds are stacked against them I think they did a great job of showcasing that but yeah this movie was tense I definitely felt it throughout the entire runtime it was bloody it doesn't seem like there was a ton of obvious visual effects, which is really cool. I think it added to the tension of it, not to mention the chaos of every situation. The music coupled with the visuals is really what creates that atmosphere of hopelessness
Starting point is 00:05:01 and terror and tension and anxiety. And this, you know, it is a worthy successor to the legacy of this franchise, this iteration of doing zombies. I haven't seen Donna the Dead, so I can't really compare it on that front. But I think that it is an excellent movie and surprisingly stacked with a full cast here. So I'm excited to see where the next one goes 28 days later. But overall, I think that this was a very entertaining, very thrill-filled, scary ride. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:35 Yeah, for sure. I'm glad they got the up their budget. They got to get actors because this is a script where you're really doing a lot of physicality and you're mainly just using like your reactions. A script, it's not like a large amount of talking happens. And I think everyone really did a great job on that. I think what was really interesting is that they show the really horrible side of the army in this where they're like, all right, execute them all.
Starting point is 00:06:07 But then they show you the highlight that not each person is the same, right? Jeremy Renner and Floyd are the ones that eventually, When it hits a threshold to where now what the government is doing, he's like, no. So not everyone is going to follow those rules, which means that 28 days later, we will still have an outbreak. But there's still like an instinctual human nature of like, am I just going to absolutely kill everybody and create a massacre so that we can make sure that no zombies escape? that's a really hard position to be in if you're a sniper or if you're in the government and they did a really good job of highlighting that.
Starting point is 00:06:49 I really thought also that I was really glad they brought back the music from the first one. The build on that, I mean, you said, we both said we're like, this is like the best freaking soundtrack ever. I mean, I just think it's very unique. I'm so glad they brought it back. Combined with the frenetic nature
Starting point is 00:07:09 of the cinematography, especially when it's in a P-O-V handheld. And then they also speed up the frames. That overall just gives you like your, it's an absolute panic, right? It also just like makes you feel uneasy because your eyes and your body, you're trying to keep up what the hell is going on. There's zombies and blood coming at us. There's people that are screaming.
Starting point is 00:07:36 The lights are going on and off. I mean, every way that they, develop sort of the set deck here and what they're going to show on the screen, I think just adds so much to how you would actually feel during a zombie apocalypse that you would probably have blackout because there's so much going on and people are being like sniped out around you. Is that a zombie? Is it not? People are screaming. They're running. You get knocked over. You're looking for your sister you're not is everybody dead i don't know they did a good job they did a great job i think this is a a fantastic film i'm glad they were able to get the actors that were in this
Starting point is 00:08:24 and it's not like they had huge huge parts but even like having roseburn and jeremy renner in those in those small parts it just feeds so much because they're just so believable and to be able to also find those kids great job on that but I was in no doubt because the first one, prime time and they had really great kid actors and that. People who take that seriously, like I also think Spilberg
Starting point is 00:08:51 does a great job at that. They tend to have really great films and I'm happy they're making another. How do you feel, Rox? I think that two of my top five movies I've ever reviewed on the channel dropped this past month
Starting point is 00:09:06 which were 28 days later and Grand Budapest. both which I loved. And what's interesting about those two movies is that I've heard forever, these are the greatest movies. These are the greatest movies. I've never heard of this movie.
Starting point is 00:09:23 I didn't know that 28 weeks later existed before you said on air 28 weeks later. I was like, oh no, honey, 28 years later. You're like, no, there's one in between. There's a week. And I was like, what's that? And you were like, that's the sequel.
Starting point is 00:09:38 So I think I went into this with really low expectations because people talk about 28 days later like it is the horror zombie adjacent, not zombie Foley guys, I know, pandemic, movie that is the greatest of all time. And I agree. After watching it, I was like, this is the greatest movie ever. This movie is so good. Nobody's ever mentioned this movie to me.
Starting point is 00:10:02 So I think it set itself up for success in the sense that I was expecting this to be a really cheesy, corny, blockbusterized version of 28 days later, and it wasn't that. You know, we can all look back at this now also and be like, oh, Rose and Jeremy, but they weren't the huge stars then that they were today. So this was still, I'm not going to call it an indie movie, but it was still a lower budget movie than probably a lot of the big blockbusters around it. It still gave us that raw, interesting feeling, but not the same as the first one.
Starting point is 00:10:37 And it borrowed some of the stuff we love, like the score. But then it built on that and was like, okay, we have a little bigger of a budget, I'm guessing. So we were able to make some of the visuals a little clearer. We're able to dive into some of the storylines a little bit more. And we're able to get way more background workers. Because in the first one, we were in a lot of smaller locations with less people. And in this, it was like, I mean, thousands and thousands of people in the streets of London. So that was really cool.
Starting point is 00:11:05 I think that keeping the story small for the first one worked slightly better because we were so invested and by the time we got to the dickhead army guys it was like you are not touching our women we will kill you and Killian Murphy just did such a great job and you just believed that he would beat the crap out of them
Starting point is 00:11:25 but this movie had a lot of great messages as well including the fact that Jeremy Renner as you alluded to Tara when he looks down and he sees this kid He does the exact opposite thing that Robert Carlyle does when he sees a kid getting attacked, and he goes to help the kid and help the future generations. And then we actually see the two children do the best they can to not be their dad as well. So both of them had equally good messaging, I think, but this one just had a little more cliches that I didn't love,
Starting point is 00:11:56 that one scenario where we've got Robert Carlyle comes back, the fact that the mom is still alive, but then we just kill her off. You know, there's a few things that it's like, okay, I think we could have done a little bit of tweaks here, but overall, really, really good movie with interesting choices. Yeah, I agree. The dad thing is a bit of a, is a bit of a stretch. A little bit.
Starting point is 00:12:15 Yeah, just a little bit, but just fine. Totally fine. He smelled his kids. He wanted them really badly. Yeah. Knew their scent. Totally. Yeah, no, I agree with everything, too.
Starting point is 00:12:25 This is just a nitpick on me. If we were going to go to the redemption arc that you alluded to at the very beginning in regards to the father, Robert Carly, which I think would have been interesting, like not having to be as infected, rather, throughout the film. Kind of would have happened, like, towards the end where he gets infected, but he makes the choice to sacrifice himself. I think that also could have been interesting as well.
Starting point is 00:12:46 Having said all that, I'm, I still love what we did get, having the choice, because it did subvert my expectations, because I kind of thought that's where we were going to go originally. And then seeing him get infected so early on, I was like, wow, I didn't, I knew they had to come up with a reason to get everyone else infected. I just didn't know that that is where they were going to go. But I personally was hoping they were going to go that route to fill out that redemption for him,
Starting point is 00:13:11 even though he ended up being a coward. I just would have liked it. I think that ending would have been fitting for him to sacrifice himself for his children and then he becomes infected. But that's just a me choice. This film also, even though I love, just stay with me here for one second,
Starting point is 00:13:25 even though I love the score to Guardians of the Galaxy with John Murphy, this also got me so pumped and excited for the new Superman film this score because I believe this is the composer is going to be doing Superman. So I'm so jazz for that. So I just wanted to point that out. He did such a great job with this score, John Murphy. Reject Nation, I don't know about you, but money used to intimidate me used to.
Starting point is 00:13:47 It definitely still intimidates me. Growing up, I'm sure you guys are the same thing too. Got to start investing early. It'll pay off in the future.

Starting point is 00:15:19 All right. Cool. I also am wondering if 28 years later is going to be the kid and he's like the cure and he's still alive. Oh, maybe some continuity there. Maybe they can add the first one and the second one. Yeah, because we see his face. That's right. There's a lot that they have to set it up.
Starting point is 00:15:35 Totally. All right, guys, we're going to get to some Patreon questions because if you're a patron, you get to ask those questions. You're real lucky. All right. Thank you so much to the patrons for sending these questions. All right. Kev B sent in, okay, real talk.
Starting point is 00:15:52 That opening scene is basically a master class in how to ruin a date night. If you were in Don's shoes, zombies banging on the door cast everywhere, Do you think you'd go full action hero? Would you be sprinting out of there faster than you can say, sorry, honey, every person for themselves. And if you did make a questionable choice, how long do you think you'd be haunted by it or would you just blame it on the adrenaline
Starting point is 00:16:14 and call it character growth? Wow. I would like to think that I would go full action hero in that moment, especially if I think, I mean, if I care about someone and others, and that's just who I am. I'm very empathetic, and that's just who I am. So I would, because I would definitely be regrettable about that and think about that every day.
Starting point is 00:16:40 So that would, that would, I would definitely sacrifice myself in that situation, or at least attempt to save in that moment. That's me about you guys. I definitely think you would be haunted by it, and you wouldn't call it character growth. I'd be haunted by it for sure. Right? You would be haunted. I don't know if I'm leaving.
Starting point is 00:17:03 I don't, let me sound messed up for this. I don't know if I'm opening that door. I don't know if I'm doing that because I need, I need information. I need information. I've been bit of the people behind you. Yeah. Because we know the consequences in a world like this. It's terrible to say, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:17:19 But, yeah, but I would definitely be haunted by not letting the kid in or ditching everybody. I don't know how I live with myself. I'd go to that pub that they reopened. Probably spent a lot of time there. I have, like, one thing about me that's actually detrimental as hell is I have never, ever not stopped to help somebody ever. So I just have to imagine I would still be me. And I think we'd probably all die. Maybe she would have lived because apparently she was partially immune.
Starting point is 00:17:50 But there's absolute, like, people in the comments always make fun of me because they're like, you wouldn't do that. It's like, then you don't know me at all. there's no world in which my spouse, the mother of my children, is in there and with a child and is screaming my name and I say, deuces, there's literally zero a world. I'd rather kill myself. So I'd definitely rather be eaten by zombie. To the last point, I don't think it could possibly be character growth. That's what I said. Because especially the choices he makes, he decides to. who lied to his children, and he did not need to do that.
Starting point is 00:18:30 And if you really are ready to grow, here's what you say. Your mom was scared, and I was afraid, and I left, and I got out, and I wanted to make sure I was there for you kids, and I left her, and it haunts me every day, and that's the choice that I made, and I have to live with that. That's why I don't ever think this was a redemption story, because he wasn't ready to be redeemed. He hadn't changed who.
Starting point is 00:18:52 He was as a person. I think that he felt bad about watching her, but I don't think about he regretted the choice he made. And then he did something similar in the boat. I'm not saying he could have fully saved that guy, but like the guy kind of waits for him as he's doing the boat, and then the guy in the boat dies. So, yeah, there's just no world in which you leave your spouse.
Starting point is 00:19:10 No. If you think you might even have a 1% chance of helping. Yeah. And I think this film does a good job of keeping you sort of like, I don't know what would have happened because there was three zombies in there that they came through with the girl and the kid, right? but I'm thinking there was still options like how did we not find something to throw through and break that window and just like jump out I know we saw that I guess in the first one but it does a good job of making you guess because there were three zombies coming in and then obviously when they get to the boat you're like I don't know like you reach out the hand and they're all on you they're on the boat who knows I honestly I don't know what I mean I would have tried to save them but that's me going I I'm pretty sure I would have have been like break the window and we all jump and if we jump we survive or we die but at least we're
Starting point is 00:20:02 not dying via freaking horde of zombies that's where my brain would have automatically went but that's just me that's not being super here it's like just like let's freaking get out of here i can't believe that she still was like i love you and kissed him totally like i if my man left me and a child yeah i was there for six months and he never even like was like we got to make or after a week, like, I got to go back and check on her just to see. Somebody has to go make sure because I didn't see her die. If my man did that, and I'm lying there after six months, and I am there, and he's like, I'm sorry about what I did, the words out of my mouth are certainly not, I still love you.
Starting point is 00:20:41 Like, I've got followed. Let me ask you, do you think she knew she was infected? No, because she seemed shocked when he got infected. She seemed shocked. I think she seemed scared. Also, too, had been 20. Why did she have done that then? Yeah, but also it had been 28 weeks, and she was also.
Starting point is 00:20:55 isolated for so long i don't think her mind was fully there too right if she was scared she wouldn't have tried to kill him that doesn't make any sense like if she knew she was going to infect him and then she infected him and then she's scared of what she just did that doesn't make any sense not scared of what she just did scared of how he's acting but if she knew she was infected she knew that he'd be acting like that maybe yeah that's true all right let's move on the next question pevel catch morrick for the fatal four way how freaking awesome was that first scene and now that I think of it do any of you have a favorite first scene from any movie something that made you go holy shite this might be a great one first scene any movie
Starting point is 00:21:37 ever what is the best first oh oh eyes of the dark night bro oh that's a freaking dark night let's go that's that's a great that is a great job Tara that's it it's definitely the and what did we think of that first scene uh definitely would ruin yeah would ruin date night. You know what? It actually took me a minute to the first scene I do, I did really like, but because the camera work was so different than the first one, and I loved how gritty the first one was, it did take me a second to be like, all right, this is just a different, we are using a
Starting point is 00:22:12 different lens, we are using a different camera, we are using a different budget, like the lighting is different, things are more clear, even though they're quick, the frame rates, everything was different. It took me a second. Yeah, actually, I changed my answer. If it's not the Dark Night, it's a movie, Tara and I actually watched recently. One of my favorite opening scenes is the one from Mission Impossible Three.
Starting point is 00:22:31 Oh, that's a good one. I was like, wait, what? What's happening? This is an opening scene, but opening five to ten minutes, I mean, it was ball in my eyes out. I'll go with up. I know it was going to be great after watching that first five percent of them. I would never rewatch it.
Starting point is 00:22:45 All right, Liam Harold. Do you feel Alice knew she was a carrier by scientist and gave a big FU to the husband who abandoned her as least until he brutally killed her. Plus, they seem to be showing some intelligence, not just mindless eating people. See, this is how
Starting point is 00:23:02 I interpret it. I think she was vindictive, yes. It looks, she did. I don't necessarily disagree. Go ahead, though. It looked like it, like, from the vindictive look on her face, it looked like she was pissed off at him at first. But then after that, I think like maybe the isolation from all that time, she was by herself for a
Starting point is 00:23:20 very long time. I just don't know if her mind was still, like, fully there. because she had been alone for so long. She had warms in her room, so I don't know what her eating situation fully was. So I really don't know how to fully interpret it. I don't know. Because would she have wanted to infect him?
Starting point is 00:23:36 Like, look what happened immediately after, right? She's not seemed like she's all entirely in her right mind. That's what I'm saying, exactly. I think that this movie does a really good job of playing with the subtlety, meaning the way that I would find an answer to that question, Liam, would be to watch it in slow-mo. And I would watch and say, How did they direct her of saying,
Starting point is 00:23:57 can we keep the audience in between that you do still love him, but maybe you do know you're infected, and he freaking left you behind, dude, to die? So are you going to give that to him? I feel like that's a really nice move that this movie made and that actress delivered in a sense it wasn't really clear one way or the other, which I do think is great to have that argument in that movie of like, I don't, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:24:25 I'd watch it in slow-mo, though, maybe to find out. I think a couple of different things here. We have to remember right before she did that, she is saying, I need to see my kids, which is a very of sound mind thing to say. Yeah. So I'm not saying there wasn't in-and-out moments. We know she's partially infected,
Starting point is 00:24:45 and she was in isolation, even regardless of the infection, just being in isolation for six months can drive you insane. So I don't know. and when we were watching it, I think I was the first to say, oh, I bet she's doing this to infect him on purpose. What made me change my mind was when she, to me, it did read as her being scared. And I don't think she would have been scared
Starting point is 00:25:06 if she had purposely infected him. I think she would have been ready to go with it like, yeah, I just did that. Yeah, bring it on. Because the double of her kissing him and then seeming shocked that he turned it, it didn't just seem like scared. It seemed surprised.
Starting point is 00:25:21 that's when I started to think oh, maybe she really did love him and she had time to think and she forgave him because for six months she's been sitting there maybe for the first month she was like that mofo and then maybe on month two she was just like I miss my family and then maybe on month three she's like I would give anything
Starting point is 00:25:37 to be back with them and then maybe on month four you know like maybe she came back around to like I love my husband and I miss him I want to kiss him. Yeah that's okay yeah man I agree with it all right last one Pierre Young What is your guys' favorite Outbreak movie?
Starting point is 00:25:54 That's a good question. I like that one. Can you guys name some? I can't think of that. I know. World War Z. 28 days later. Does zombie land and Sean of the Dead count?
Starting point is 00:26:04 Yeah. Okay, we'll count those. Definitely counts. Okay, so that was three. Oh, that's four, right? You both said you haven't seen Sean of the Dead, but you both think it definitely counts. No, I reacted to say you hadn't seen. I reacted.
Starting point is 00:26:16 What? I don't know. There's a movie you guys both said you hadn't seen like a minute ago. Five minutes ago, ten minutes ago. Oh, I don't know. Is it Dawn of the Day? Oh, G. Dawn of the Day. We've seen John of the Dead.
Starting point is 00:26:29 I have not seen that. You guys both said that, right? We did see Donna of the Dead. You have a better memory than us. I don't know. I mean, I'm really going with like, you know, 28 days later is great, but you all know my memory. It just, it sucks. And I have some weird flashes of their, it's not the monkey.
Starting point is 00:26:51 that are in this. There's a different freaking outbreak movie where animals are involved, not like in a terrible way, but where they're using that in the movie to show you what's happening. And I will, I'll look on the internet. And maybe, sure, those flying monkeys,
Starting point is 00:27:09 they're scary as hell. I don't know. I'll have to look it up in the internet. Or you guys can leave it in a comment. There is another outbreak movie that I know did freak me out and I watched it a long, long time ago. is why I can't remember.
Starting point is 00:27:22 And I know that there was some sort of freaking scary animals up in there and the outbreak was going on. It was wild. Now, if I could remember that name, I might say that one. Between that one and 28 days later for now, just because my memory, the lack thereof, it won't let me decide. World War Z gave one of the best reactions ever from you where you literally flew back on the chair.
Starting point is 00:27:47 Yeah, that's true. That was scary as hell. I have a new answer. I was going to go with Sean of the Dead, but then I accessed the re-seasoned my memory. It's a movie called Anna the Apocalypse. It is a zombie Christmas musical. Oh. What?
Starting point is 00:28:01 Yeah. Takes place in the UK. It's awesome. Watch that on the channel. That sounds dope as hell. It's the best. The one for me, it's the Korean film where they're on the train. That's the one.
Starting point is 00:28:13 That one is amazing. That movie. You guys reacted to that one? No. You guys need to react to that. Train to Basan. Okay. That movie was amazing.
Starting point is 00:28:22 I think that my answer, Tara, you and I are the same person sometimes. I think my answer is probably 28 days later. I don't know whether that's a recency bias thing, but I thought that movie was like legitimately a perfect movie. I had no notes. I don't even think, we've mentioned it a thousand times and we can't mention enough. It's the score alone that may, when I hear that, it's really good. I feel sick inside.
Starting point is 00:28:44 Yes. That movie was perfect. I can't imagine loving an outbreak movie more than that, but maybe I do, and you guys can remind me in the comments if there's one I've said I have. It's also, there's just something about it because it's an indie. They didn't know how huge it was going to be.
Starting point is 00:28:58 I mean, they think about how hard they tried to just shut down the street for 10 minutes. Let us just get this one freaking shot, right? And they're using people who are a no name, and it's a great idea, and I think that's also why I want to give that a little more love, specifically. All right, do you guys have any last thoughts
Starting point is 00:29:18 before we zoom out of here. NAR. I'm excited for 20 years later. Me too. I think it's going to be dope as all get up. Okay, nothing left. Should I really quick? I know Roxy probably doesn't want to play the game.
Starting point is 00:29:34 Really quick, we're out into males and box office. Oh, sure. Let's do it. I would go with... I know you so well. I'm going to go critics. 71, an audience. 82.
Starting point is 00:29:49 Okay, 71 and 82. Since people don't talk about this one at more at much, I'm going to go 69. And audience? Yeah. 72. Okay. I want to know what the budget of this is. Okay, so what was your audience, or critics against 71?
Starting point is 00:30:11 Critics, I gave a 71 audience, I went 82. Just keep it at critics. Keep it simpler. 71 and what was your 69? Yeah. 72. Oh, I was real close. All right.
Starting point is 00:30:21 An audience, you said 80, right? I said 82. And you said, 76. Damn. Okay, y'all didn't really like you. And then box office. What do you guys got?
Starting point is 00:30:33 Y'all didn't really like it. Worldwide box office for 28 weeks later. The budget was $15 million. It did not feel like it felt so much more. It upped the budget. It doubled the budget. It doubled it. This is what I'm talking.
Starting point is 00:30:47 about budgets that are on the lower end but feel like much bigger I love movies of that budget yeah stretching your creative legs worldwide I'm going to go 47 mil okay I go 70 mil 65 million do you guys want to know what the budget of 28 years later
Starting point is 00:31:07 is I'm going to go with 90 million I was just going to tell you oh okay but you're close Ross saying about these games ever but I love that you are 75 mil oh wow well if they were
Starting point is 00:31:21 able to make that look this good at 15 and Danny Boyle's doing it and he was able to make it that one look that good at 8 I can't wait to see what he does with 75 I really truly can't imagine that's just crazy to me also to Aaron and I obviously we're not going to talk specific spoilers but
Starting point is 00:31:37 I love too how much influence this gave to Neil Druckman and Nottie Dog for the last even this movie alone too gave for Last of Us 1 and 2 you can really feel it in this film as well as the first one. It's awesome. All right, guys, we love you.
Starting point is 00:31:51 I think those are the last of our thoughts. Give us all the stuff, the love. Tell us how cool we are. Be nice. See on the next one. Cadiha Sims. Wow, if we're going to fight in a zombie apocalypse, we need Cadeha, don't we?
Starting point is 00:32:11 I think we do. What are you looking for? I'm just looking at Cadeha's Pio profile. profile pick here and you know you got the little teddy bear you look very sweet and cozy and I feel like you know you would be the person in any zombie apocalypse group who keeps morale together and people are like hey we don't need your your soft fuzzy skills in a harsh and bloodthirsty world nay we do because you bring us joy every time we see you and joy is an underrated go look at every apocalypse movie they're also bleak we need a zombie outbreak that has a little bit
Starting point is 00:32:47 of umph and optimism. I feel like you could bring us that, you know? We can survive. We can subsist feeding off of your strength of will and your resilience. What we really need in zombie apocalypse is some good comic relief. It's dark times, man. You know, comedy, it's the ultimate medicine. You know, it's the laughter is the ultimate medicine. So if we can just keep everyone laughing while surviving, I feel like you were the kind of person who can provide that type of warmth and energy. This is a great 180 from the rage thing, you know.
Starting point is 00:33:17 absolutely absolutely might be able to defeat the these zombies are infected with what cheer they've all got borderline personnel this or is what they got much of freaks freaks freaks diagnosed with that so i can say that thanks
